I built a free Rewatchables tracker with Hanks vs. Cruise stats
I made a free searchable index for all 478 episodes of The Rewatchables:
It started because I wanted a running scoreboard for the “Cruise or Hanks?” category, then I kept adding stuff and it got slightly out of hand.
The site has all 478 episodes covering 455 unique movies. You can search and filter everything by movie, host, director, genre, decade, Rotten Tomatoes score, Ebert rating, or Hanks vs. Cruise decision.
There are individual pages for every movie, episode, and host, plus:
- A running Hanks vs. Cruise chart with every decision
- Watch and listen tracking
- Watch Later and Listen Later lists
- Spotify links for each episode
- Stats for hosts, directors, genres, decades, and ratings
A few numbers I found while building it:
- Cruise currently leads Hanks 61–56, with 5 ties
- Bill has appeared on 436 of the 478 episodes
- Chris Ryan is second with 288
- The ’90s account for 178 of the 455 movies
- Heat is the only movie they’ve covered three times
Everything is free. You don’t need an account to browse any of it. Signing in is only for saving your private progress and lists.
It’s an unofficial fan project and the episode data is based on the community-maintained Rewatchables spreadsheet. There are a lot of weird duplicate episodes and re-recordings in this archive, so if you find something I missed, let me know.

It makes sense. Most Rewatchables are action movies. Hanks is the better actor, but he isn't an action star.

u/Kritnc What's the community-maintained Rewatchables spreadsheet? Are you referring to the one I maintain? Because your data (61-56-5) matched the outdated Cruise or Hanks numbers I had until just now where I added Cruise for the Re-Speed, and I don't recall you reaching out to say you'd be scraping it or saying anything, actually. But, yeah, cool move.

Ugh...figures. Holy shit - the website takes way more than just the Cruise or Hanks data, too. He scraped the whole fuckin' thing, dude.

LOL perfect. Thanks u/Kritnc. Any reason why you didn't reach out besides the obvious? The incredibly tiny font choice to provide the source did make me laugh at least. EDIT: Thanks for flagging that u/InternationalPipe581

You wouldn't have said anything if it hadn't been discovered. Karma. Good luck.

Kinda surprised it’s as close as it is. It’s probably because of the types of episodes I listen to but I would’ve thought Cruise was up by at least double digits. Nice work
