brought to you by harry shavers and this episode is brought to you by movement watches we're mixing it up then i i'm doing the riff this week he does the intro and i'm doing the riff i like the riff thanks how many are you gonna oh no that's it the big old punch line of the riff oh uh hey it's harder than it looks to be the riff guy. Right? I like it. But it's also harder than you'd think to be the keep the show on track guy. Yeah, that's true.

The rare times I've done it, I'm like, oh, no. There's a dude here and he's trying to throw me off all the time and I like it. It's unpleasant. Red hot comic book movie news. Shooting up your butt hole. Welcome back everybody to another episode of the Weekly Planet Where we talk movies and comics and TV shows My name is James, also known as Mr. Sunday With me as always is my co-host Nick Mason It's great to be here on this award winning podcast

Why do you say so Mason? We won an award We won the potties They can never take it away from? We won an award. We won the potties. They can never take it away from us. Is that what it's called, the potties? I don't know. Logies, potties. For those people who don't know,

the television awards in Australia are called the Logies. Which sounds like something that comes out of your throat or nose. And sometimes it is. Yeah. The Goober Awards. But no. The Flemies. We won the most popular Australian podcast.

And we won it because people who listen to the podcast voted for us. Which is crazy. And neither of us wanted to go. So we didn't. Look, there's an American comedian called Todd Barry. He's very funny. And he had a joke many years ago where he talked about punk bands and how they're always poor.

They're successful, but they're poor. And a punk band wins a Grammy Award and their manager comes up to accept the award. And they're like, the band would be here, but they couldn't get the night off from the video store. And as Claire was accepting the award for most popular podcast, I was seeing it happen from my car at work where I was until 2 a.m. And I was editing at home in my underwear.

Nice. No, and that's not true. I was wearing pants also. Good for you. Yeah, yeah. But no, Claire did a better speech than either of us could have done. Absolutely, yeah. So it was, honestly, it's just, I've said this multiple times,

I care so little for awards. But again, that is something that a person says before they win an award. That's true. And then they're like, actually, I care a lot. Yeah. But what is great is that we really appreciate that people, because we were voted to win. Yes. It wasn't some panel of people we don't know.

It was the people that listened to this show who voted for us, which is just really cool. So we really appreciate it. People who know us well. Yeah. So it's a good thing they voted in favor of us and not in favor of everyone else. Because there's some really good and very popular podcasts in that lineup. So it was just, I accidentally sent a text because I just turned on the live stream. I didn't realize there was one.

25 people were watching, 24 if you don't count me. But I had the text ready to go. oh, we didn't win or whatever. I had some little joke and I sent it and then we won. So, yeah, it was really quite surprising. That's pretty great. But luckily, Mason. Oh, I was going to say that also thanks to Claire. She met on the night legendary Australian comedian Tony Martin.

He is spectacular as a human being. I'm such a big Tony Martin fan. If you go to her Instagram, which I think is Claire Tonti, all one word, you can see him say our famous catchphrase, grab that jam. Yes.

Apropos of nothing, he's never met us before. He doesn't know who we are. Such enthusiasm. Yeah. But anyway, in celebration of winning the award, we've decided this is our new award winning tradition.

Yes. Anytime we win an award, so hopefully never again, we're going to celebrate with a piping hot glass of Bovril. Yes. Which we spoke about at length last week. It's some sort of yeast and meat-based paste that you put into hot water and you drink it. Yep, that's right.

And it says on the back here, simply add hot water, we got that, to one good teaspoonful of Bovril and stir. Good. All right, we do this. That sounds promising. All right, let's take a break. Let's fire it up. The Bovril boys are taking a break.

The Bovi boys. Okay. Okay, you got it here. We're ready. James, can you hear this? All right, I can hear it. Can you hear it? James, you're in the Bovril place now.

Whoa. I don't know if I like it. All right. Here we go. Time for a bit of a sippy sip. Is this the most self-indulgent thing we've done? No. It's not like eating a piece of chocolate cake.

Let's have a drink that we'll probably hate. It's not as bad as the time I ordered waffles, is it? No. Okay. It's not as bad as that. But, I mean, collectively it? No. Okay. It's not as bad as that. But I mean, collectively, it's the worst thing we've done. Oh, yeah, definitely. Yeah.

Here we go. All right. Ready? It's like Vegemite and beef stock. A little bit, isn't it? Yeah. But it's not horrible, but it's nothing. Well, my feel, yeah.

I guess this was my worst. This is the worst outcome because either it's like neither of us immediately vomited. But at the same time, I was kind of hoping it'd be like drinking a glass of like very thin gravy, which is maybe what in my heart of hearts I just want to do. Yeah. It's just drink a glass of hot gravy. And we'll do that next time we win. Okay, cool.

Next time we win best podcast. Glass of gravy. Yeah, I'm not. All right. You're not going to drink the glass of hot gravy and we'll do that next time we win okay cool next time we win best podcast glass of gravy yeah i'm not all right you're not going to drink the rest of that are you you got that look it's very veggie mighty yeah it is yeah but a lot of people have said to us on twitter that it's way better on toast including will from will's war that's right yeah fan of but uh which i think i might actually try. All right. But as a beverage. But you can't though. No, because I'm off toasted bread and sugar and carbs and dairy and alcohol. You could have it on a wheat thin. I could. No, you can't have wheat. I can't have wheat.

You could have it on a rice thin. I could have, no, I don't think I'm eating rice either. You could wash the salt off the rice thin. Okay. And then put bobble on it. I can have salt. Okay, cool. Yeah.

Wow. Someone's living like a king. Yeah. guess we should we should all right you know i'm gonna i'm gonna continue to drink this okay i'm gonna drink water forever all right good yeah okay anyway segment over thanks again everybody the victory segment is over boy is this okay oh man it's so exciting that we got a first look at uh the robin hood trailer for the first footage are you saying that sarcastically look it's not i've been well against this movie from day one yes and it's not a good trailer or it doesn't look good but like a bovril yeah it's not the worst thing i've ever seen no and you know I looked at it and I'm kind of jazzed about it just because it seems so

dumb. And it also seems exactly like Batman. If you like, let me tell you this. It's a lot like Batman. And if you like any bit in an Avengers movie where Hawkeye leaps off maybe like a tall building or like off the top of a car and turns around in the air and shoots two arrows at two different people. You are going to love this movie. You are in for a treat.

Because that looks like this movie is entirely composed of that shot over and over and over again. And there's bits where, because he's a highfalutin Lord Fauntleroy type. Yes. Like he's, he's Bruce Wayne-ing it, you know,

he's like, why would anybody dress up and shoot arrows at people? That seems like a common thing. Oh, for a thousand pieces of silver for the next first man who can catch him That's very Bruce Wayne And it's also very When Ridley Scott was doing the last Robin Hood movie

Which was Robin Hood Origins With 50 year old Russell Crowe Yes uh huh The original idea for that was That he was also the Sheriff of Nottingham And Robin Hood Yeah right So it seems like there might be elements of that here

It doesn't look good. Don't get me wrong. No. Yeah. Jamie Foxx out of nowhere. I wasn't expecting that. Yeah, it's got a bit of Prince of Thieves about it as well. Because he's a...

See, I don't know enough about the origin of Robin Hood. Sure. But he was... You know what? He was probably just a real bad bloke. Yeah. I mean, if there's a real Robin Hood. Is there a real one?

There's someone or a few people I think it's loosely based loosely because i i get in this he was in the crusade he was a soldier in the crusades and then he was taught by jamie fox yeah to be a robin hood yeah but i'm i'm fairly confident in the original robin hood stories everybody just knows he's robin hood yes and he's not there's no there's no there's no secret origin. Oh, hello. Ah! Hi, everybody. Claire's here. I'm doing a partnership.

I'm doing a partner. Wow. Claire, we've already had our celebration of Bovril. We drank this Bovril. Is that what it stinks in here? Like, do you drink? Well, no. Oh, well, you can't. It's 50-50.

That's why it smells like weird. Also, James, can you clear that song? I don't think you can legally Oh, well, you can't. It's 50-50. That's why it smells like weird. Also, James, can you clear that song? I don't think you can legally. No, I probably can't. Hopefully it's low enough. No, it's fine. If we evaluate it in terms of review, we're allowed to use about that amount of time.

That song sucks. No, that's all right. Oh, controversial. Differences of opinion are important. For those who couldn't hear, it was Celebrate Good Time, and Claire's got us three balloons. Superman. Superman, Batman.

And one says happy podcast award somehow. We don't know how you got that one. Wow. There's some grass and there's the weakly painted colours inside. Oh, there is too. Thanks, Claire. I've got one for Party Boy Mason. Wow.

One for James Clements. I don't have a name. I don't get one for Party Boy Nick Mason. And one for the host of the podcast, James. One for Sad Dad. Who wants the Superman one and who wants the Batman? I'll take the Superman. I'll take the Superman one, obviously.

I mean, it's New 52 Superman, but I'll take it. All right, geez. Okay, that was going to go better in my game. That went perfectly. I loved it. Claire, it's hard to top Bovril, but you've done it somehow. Why are you drinking stinky meat? People made us do it.

I'm glad I didn't get either of you. Yeah. You've gone well out of your way, Claire. I really have. It looks like you've planned for a child's birthday. Where did you find those, Claire? I hid them in the garage. Because I went through every room in this house when I got here, and I couldn't find them.

He does his balloon hunt every week. Thanks, Claire. Thank you, Greg. Congratulations on the award, guys. And thank you for going so we didn't find him. He does his balloon hunt every week. Thanks, Claire. Thank you, Greg. Congratulations on the award, guys. And thank you for going so we didn't have to. For a second. That knock was very threatening. That's what I thought.

I'm like, is this the cops? Is this like an angry neighbor? If you want to knock and surprise somebody, the knock is... It's not... Open up, there's a warrant. I thought something bad was going to happen. Yeah, right? And I'm like, but how do they get through the front door to here?

Good question. Anyway. Yeah. Anyway, Robin Hood, look shit. But we'll see it. Also the poster, it's been pointed out to me, if you've seen the poster. Oh, the stitched hoodie? No, that, but also the poster, It's Taron Egerton in a forest,

but the forest is of like arrows, like giant arrows that are being shot into the ground, but it makes it look like he's a teeny tiny man in a wheat field. Because if you can picture wheat, it's got the fins at the top. Let me check. I'm getting Robin Hood for all the other Robin Hoods, Mason. Everything from Prints and Thieves to that one with Sean Connery in it.

What is it? I've come to realise that Bottle's bad. Oh, really? Yeah, that's right. That's interesting, Mason, that you would say that. Yeah. It does make him look tiny. Yeah, right?

Weird. And it also looks like the Inception or Batman Begins poster. It also looks like an Ant-Man versus Hawkeye movie. Yes, which I would watch. Yeah, me too. Yeah. Anyway, this won't do well. No.

And why? Good question. Next thing. Yes. This might do well. It's tracking really well. There's a whole lot of new clips and TV spots for the new Star Wars Solo story. It's Han Solo, but he's young.

What's he up to? Smuggling. Smuggling. Smuggling and drug running. So we got some clips. We got a clip of him flying the Millennium Falcon with Chewbacca, which is a fun little clip, I thought. Does Chewbacca have a beard in that?

I think he's all bearded. Yeah, I know, but it looks like he's been given a fake beard. Do you mean like a fake wife? Yes, that's what I mean, yes. What's his wife's name again? Marla? Pimply or Ugly or something, or Swazi. No, his son's called...

Slimy? His son's called Lumpy. There we go. Slimy, yeah. Yeah. Chewbacca and his wife's Slimy. Her name's like... His son's name's like Lump or Waroo or something.

Okay. Because it looks like he's got a fake beard, and I feel maybe his character arc is, because he's 190 years old. Sure. Maybe his character arc is at the end of the movie he doesn't want to seem as old so he he trims the beard off okay so han solo gets the chin scar yes he gets these beard laser dot laser whipped off yes exactly yeah it happens at the same time it happens in a barroom brawl yes no wait a barber room bra Oh, very good. I thought the music was a bit, and this might not be the music for the final film,

it's a mashup of previous Star Wars themes. Yes. And it seems a bit like, you don't have to use all the Star Wars themes. Yeah. Because it's got the main theme

and also the Millennium Falcon to the asteroid chase theme and they kind of mash it together. I think it's probably a bit much, but it's also, it's not. John Goodman, I was going to say. John Williams. John Woo? John Woo.

John Williamson. John, is it Williamson, is it? No, that's the Australian musician guy. John Williams, the music man. Yes. He's only doing the solo theme song and another guy's doing the rest of it. Okay. So I don't know how that's going to go. man yes he's only doing the solo theme song and another guy's doing the rest of it okay so i don't know how that's i think it would be odd to have in the origin of han solo

the han solo through the asteroid field music but then it's the origin of the music but i think he needs to work they need to earn it yeah so i don't think maybe you can have some maybe this is a pre maybe there's it's like a proto version of that. Like it's a simpler version of the theme or something. It didn't seem like that. No, but I mean, I meant more that they'll cut this out and they'll put like a simpler version or something that's more youthful. Yeah.

Right. Like a dubsteppy version of it. Like maracas. Maracas perhaps the most youthful instrument of them all. It's true. You have to be young to shake those maracas. You know it. Yeah.

Uh, there's a bunch of, those hips don't lie. They don't. There's a bunch of other stuff. There's a 360 view of the Sabacc game between Lando and Han. Okay. And it seems like they're showing it up to the point where Lando loses the Falcon.

But I wonder if that's a misdirect and they're going to do another card game. Or otherwise are they just going to show it because people know what happens? Yeah, right. Yeah. But, you know, Donald Glover again on point, killing it. Oh, for sure. And in general, there's also the Falcon Tour. There's the Donald Glover gives us a guided tour around the Millennium Falcon.

He says Falcon, which is what we say, whereas everybody else seems to say Falcon. Falcon. But he's right, it's Falcon. Yeah, he is right. Yeah. There's also, did you say. But he's right, it's Falcon. Yeah, he is right. There's also... It's so fresh, it looks nice. There's a sweet clip where if you go to ILM's Twitter, it's a gif where it's on top of the train,

that's Woody Harrelson, and it's one shot where he's shooting at somebody and then the camera spins around as he lifts up the door on top of the train and then he ducks behind it. It's this one shot and it looks spectacular. Do you think it's a real one shot? It looks like a real one shot.

I mean, it's a CGI background, but it looks like one camera. Okay, right. Yeah. No, and there's also like a bunch of TV spots and one of them, he's playing Djeric,

you know, the polo chess with Chewbacca. Oh, yes. And Chewbacca tries to like sweep them off the board and he's like, they're holograms, you can't sweep them off the board. This looks... But you can'ts you can't this looks you can't threaten everyone around yeah you can tear the arms off

your enemies this looks pretty fun yeah i don't think it's gonna be like i think it's mostly gonna be pointless yes but i think this this actually is shaping up it could be something fun what do you think we've said that before though certainly about many things yeah definitely but i mean why howard's having fun yeah let's go into it with an open mind yeah exactly yeah It could be something fun. What do you think? We've said that before, though, certainly, about many things. Yeah, definitely. But I mean, why... Ron Howard's having fun. Yeah, let's go into it with an open mind. Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

I like Alden Ehrenreich. I like Emilia Clarke. Yep. I like Chewbacca. Do you like his beard? Well, that remains to be seen. Maybe I just so desperately want him to have a beard that I've imagined it. Yeah, that's very possible.

Like Donald Glover. Like Woody Harrelson. Woody Harrelson. That's a winning combination. Boy, is it. But no, we'll find out in like three weeks it's out. Cool. 25th or something like that.

Nice. So let's bloody do that when it happens. Okay, Mason, on the back of the new DC digital service that's been announced, I'm presuming some kind of streaming service that I literally just found out about. Uh-huh, yeah. It's called DC Universe. Great. Not bad.

Notice how they named it straight away, unlike the D eu which remains unnamed it's still unofficial the dc eu yeah but uh the first thing the first project they've announced is a live action swamp thing uh what if they called it the dc extreme universe they're like they've already got that i mean the new one like that no i mean the movie one yeah they should call it that the night we've we've decided on a name it's the dc extreme universe but it should be dcx yeah yeah uh but yeah james one's going to be producing and show running i think swamp thing a tv oh yeah that's right okay that's cool which is cool uh mark ver heiden he's worked on Battlestar Galactica and Daredevil and Gary Duberman

he's a writer on It they're gonna oh sorry they're gonna co-write the series and act as showrunners but I think James

must be just producing it because he likes weird creatures oh for sure yeah that kind of stuff like Vin Diesel like Vin Diesel that egg in a vest but no I think that's

I wonder whether this streaming service is gonna be a separate universe again to the flaro verse and and the movie universe you know yeah oh that's what i was gonna massive shades of arrow also in in robin oh yes but that's because of all the arrows though yeah oh yeah for sure yeah and the hoods and the hoods yeah yeah and the fact they're like who's the hood and he's a playboy He's just a cool playboy.

But he can do that chin-up thing. Do the chin-up thing. He's got the abs. Betty's got the abs. He's definitely got the abs. Yeah. So you're saying this will be a separate... I don't know.

Do you think they will... Are they going to... Do they have the rights to put all the Flarover stuff on their streaming service, I wonder? I'm not sure how that works okay but if i were them yeah i would kick off or add to the existing movie universe and just like the same way marvel has marvel television why not make swamp thing part of this whole universe yeah right why not try yeah try something like that but then again

when have they ever done anything that's been yeah that's so intelligent how would you make swamp thing more extreme to Swamp Thing more extreme to suit the more extreme DCEU? I think you could just leave him as is. If you made him gross and weird and terrible and terrified. I think just gross and he's got like sewer detritus in him. He's got like old razor blades and used condoms in him. Yeah.

And also you make him have sex with somebody like the shape of water. Yes. That's how you do it. Exactly, yeah. Because I think in one of the runs, that's what he does as well. Because he's got a whole lot of, wasn't it, the Frank Miller version, some kind of special worm that absorbs the mind of the guy

who falls into the swamp. So the swamp thing guy, I can't remember his real name. Alec Holland. He's not the real Alec Holland. He's taken on... Or that version is. Oh, okay. I think there's been a few.

The one I'm familiar with is that in the DC universe, there are four elementals. Yes. At any given time. And one's Animal Man. Oh, no. So there's Firestorm. Right. There's the two that nobody cares about and the swamp thing. yes at any given time and one's animal man oh no one so there's firestorm right there's

the two that nobody cares about and this one thing oh very good yeah and so basically what happens I think is that the elemental needs

a human vessel to operate so it chooses somebody okay and then it goes in them and then they become the thing and then I think their

their human self mostly disappears I think sure it's a little bit vague yeah I bet it is but it's one of the swamp thing and then i think their their human self mostly disappears i think sure it's a little bit vague yeah but it's one of the swamp thing and firestorm are those characters they get rebooted every yeah that's right five to ten years are there there's been just in the flaroverse oh there's at least two yeah yeah yeah but uh that just made me think though do animal man animal man you run about animal man oh it's new. It's like the new 52 run. Yeah. Really good.

And it also works into Swamp Thing and it's really great. And it could be self-aware because Animal Man is... Ridiculous. Ridiculous. And he is one of the few comic book characters that is aware he's a comic book character. Yes. But he exists in a universe where nobody else believes that. Correct.

And you could just get Rob Schneider to play him, also played an animal man in The Animal. So what do you... Terrific. That's a universe pre-made. You can just borrow that. Yeah, exactly. So he's got like a dolphin for a leg or something. I don't know whatever happens in that.

He's got... He's got Michael Caton on his side. There we go. Yeah. All right. Mason, it's time for an ad. Darkseid's going to destroy the world. Tell him he's dreaming.

Very good. That's from the castle. Very specific reference, Mason. Very specific Australian reference there. Now, Mason, we know Movement Watches as being a crowdfunded kids working together out of a living room, and because they thought watches were too expensive for both men and women, and they decided also to expand their business into sunglasses and bracelets.

And the reason they've done this is because it cuts out the middlemen and they were sick of paying a lot of money for glasses and sunglasses that are too expensive. What are some of your favorite styles? First of all, congratulations on not putting any full stops in that entire sentence. You're welcome. You sounded like a high school student who had like a public speaking thing to do

and you had it all in your head and you just rushed it. I haven't worked out cadences. But you know what? You got all the facts out there. I did. That was a B performance. That was a B plus performance. I'll take a B plus.

Yeah, pretty good. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, your dad expected you to get an A, so. Well, he's not here, is he? No, that's right. He's at the Poles Club. Do you have a favorite design?

Man, I love the Voyager, as you know. I thought you would. It's a bit of a chronograph design. What's that one you got there? Oh, this is a Voyager. Oh, that is a Voyager. This is the one I've got up beside me. This is a chronograph.

They have a monochrome collection. They get all the watches like they have, but they're all like totally monochrome. Like instead of, so like this is, it's got a gray leather band and a gray face and a gray case. That sounds a lot like me. Yeah, exactly. Gray face, gray case, gray hair.

Yeah, it's been up for 15 hours editing a video. That's why it looks like that. But man, I enjoy this a lot. What's this one? That is, that's the Chrono. That's the one I really like. Yeah, that's, yeah, yeah. Because it's mine, obviously.

Yeah, I know, right? Yeah, yeah. And I got a pair of sunglasses on the way as well. It's my favorite because this one works. I can wear it with a t-shirt and jeans. I can wear it like a sport coat. Yeah. Wear a leather jacket.

I can wear a suit with this. Looks good. Is it 25 meters water resistant or more? Let's say it is. Yeah, I bet it is. I don't think the leather band is, but I think the case is. We have leather and water. Everybody knows that. Come on, get it together. You don't think the leather band is, but I think the case is. We have leather and water. Everybody knows that.

Come on, get it together. You don't put it in water or bovril. No, correct. I'm going to take a sip of this, but I know I'm going to regret it. Yes, you will. Move-in watches start at just $95. Oh, it gets worse. Yeah, because it gets colder.

Oh, and it clings to the inside of your mouth. Yeah. I'm getting some water. You've got water. It's on the floor. Okay, I'll keep doing this. Move-in watches start at just $95 at a department store when you're looking to pay $400 to $500

for a watch of similar quality and or build. But Movement figured this out, obviously, by cutting out the middleman, so there's no retail markup, and they go straight to you with their classic designs, quality construction, and stylized that's minimalized. It is, and there's a difference between minimal and boring correct and these are minimal but they're very interesting as somebody who has way too many watches yes like i reach for

these most days well five out five out of five out of seven days i'm like i'll take a movement watch thank you very much i bet one side of your watch rack is just gathering dust it is a little casio calculator watches exactly there there. Yep. That remote control watch I had. I had one that had a Thomas face that would flip up that I wore in the bath and ruined. I'll never forget that year, 2008. Yeah, also, you can actually get 15% off with free shipping and free returns

by going to mvmt.com weekly planet see why movement keeps growing check out their expanding collection which it always is i know you because you love going there and go check out the new designs or whatever that's what you're about yeah i know watch now go to mvmt.com weekly planet join the movement they have one of the new voyage and it's bronze and it's got like a sage grey bloody band it's greenish oh it's so good I'm going to get it

anyway it doesn't matter speaking of good Mason I'm going to dip back into this ballpark oh you really okay you do it worse than ever okay

what are we doing let's try it on toast not now no there's a new Ant-Man and Wasp trailer I came out earlier this week spoilers for Infinity War I guess

we're not going to go too heavy into it but if you haven't seen it because this movie will somehow loosely tie in Just skip ahead like two minutes The thing's below I'll put time codes in But where do you think this sits?

Do you still think it's going to sit before the end of Infinity War? I think so yeah It seems to be yeah Especially since we're getting it Before Avengers 4 It would be weird for it to be like, well, this happened afterwards. This really terrible thing happened

that affects everybody on Earth. Yeah, right. That's it. So I would strongly suggest that it's going to take place maybe just before Infinity War and then maybe we'll see the aftermath of Infinity War taking place at maybe post-credits.

Maybe post-credits, yeah. Maybe some of his family will be affected or whatever. A few standout things for me. Big stuff. Weird use of big stuff. Ah, so good. He uses that like a truck,

like a weird skateboard kind of scooter. I guess his giant man form is stabilized now, which is great uh there's a giant salt shaker yes which i love there's a giant ant playing drums sure is that a dream sequence yeah what's that don't know me neither and michael pena is really funny he's back yeah he's confirmed back which is nice reminding michael douglas that he robbed his house which was

which was really good. No, so I thought this was, I think this is the best trailer. And it's not that I haven't been unimpressed with the other trailers, but there's more stuff in this trailer that's kind of, that I've been interested in. Yeah, right. Especially the giant man stuff that's really got me kind of going. Let me just, I'm just going to skim through this real quick,

just see if we missed anything. That's me falling. That was good. And it's got one of our favourite bit player character actors, Wally Goggles. Don Goggles is in this. We also get Ant-Man meeting Lawrence Fishburne's character, who was formerly Goliath,

whose record for... 21 feet or something? Something like that. Some minuscule amount. Ridiculous. What a goose. Come on, mate. Yeah.

What a goose. Do we know who the villain is in this? That shape-shifting... Oh, it's the ghost. Oh, it's the ghost. Okay, yeah. Yeah. So that's cool.

There we go. Sorry, it's been a while since I watched this, but yeah. No, that's fine, Mason. It's really... I don't have that much else to say about it. It's out in There we go. Sorry, it's been a while since I watched this. No, that's fine, Mason. There's really... I don't have that much else to say about it. It's out in a few months. Does anyone... I was going to say,

does anyone else have phasing powers in the Marvel Universe? The Vision does, but anybody else? Anybody else else? Thanos does. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. But anyone else? Nah.

There's probably somebody else. Well, I mean, in the comic universe obviously but scarlet witch oh giant soul shaker there we go that's very good i like yeah yes yeah while you're skimming through though yes i did a video on stuff that was cut out of avengers infinity war because there's a bunch of stuff that didn't quite make it in and there's stuff in trailers that were misdirects and i go through all that and some concept art and some actors have talked about some scenes that didn't end up going in yeah but one of the things that just came up and I managed to squeeze this in the video in the last minute as they briefly considered,

considered, considered putting in TV characters into the film. Right. So whether that be agents of shield, it could even be like a Phil Coulson, you know, cause you could fault him in quite easily. Exactly.

For sure. They didn't do it for, you know, there's enough people in that movie. Yeah, absolutely. So I understand why they didn't. But I just thought that was interesting that they considered that aspect of it.

And that it wasn't completely off the table. No. It wasn't like, we will never combine this stuff. But now it's off the table. It seems confirmed. Oh, come on. Yeah. I guess.

I guess. I guess that's okay. Oh my God, bring him back for the next one. Well, he's back for Captain Marvel. Oh yeah. Yeah. I guess. I guess that's okay. Oh, my God. Bring him back for the next one. Well, he's back for Captain Marvel. Oh, yeah. So there you go. It's not off the table at all. This is interesting.

But I mean, just reveal he's alive again. Yeah, fine. Whatever. That'd be so good. Give him a mullet also. Yeah. Whether it be future or the past, give him a mullet. So more than 65 directors have apparently met for the Black Widow solo movie.

It seems like a lot, but maybe this is standard. I don't know. I don't think they could all direct it effectively together. You don't think so? No. As a unit? I think maybe they should just pick one of them. Mason, you've got your wild ideas, and that's why you're not in Hollywood.

Oh, come on. That's why you're only winner of the potties, and that's it. I guess we are headed towards... There seems to be a lot of director duos these days sure yeah and that seems to be working out fine so i guess if you really want to up the ante if you really want to bring in those box offers 65 directors they're looking for two brothers it's a scaling issue one yep then you square it that's two yep then you square it that's 65 that's right yeah it's a simple mathematical equation know your math and you'll know

what to do in Hollywood what do you think about that it seems like they're taking this very seriously then this movie yeah are you excited for this movie yes

I think it could be good I think it could be yeah depending on the era it's setting and also depending who they get but it seems like

they're putting some real thought into this I think it could be good I think we've said this before I think it could be good if it's not an origin because I don't care about it. Please don't.

I don't care about the origin. What about in the past, but it's her and Bucky and whatever. But it's not an origin. It's just set in like the 90s or the 80s. I don't know. She's like 28. I don't know how that works.

But she's only heard of the Winter Soldier. They wouldn't interact, right? Well, we don't know that. Yeah, right. Yeah, she has a lot of secrets. She has a lot of secrets. She might have met him and he got de-brained. heard of the winter soldier they wouldn't interact right well we don't know that yeah right yeah she's she has a lot of secrets so she might have met him and he got deep brainwashed for an hour that's the tagline she got a lot of secrets but she does yeah so i think you could work it in i don't think it's implausible yeah that they had met before uh-huh yeah there's even a line in um civil war

where they're fighting and he she says to him don't you recognize me which could refer to the winter soldier yeah it could be any time i guess where it's a little this would be a phase four movie obviously yes now just give an adventure yeah i don't want them to go back and be like well the best days now that the avengers are here yeah why we need to see this i want it to be like we need her need her here because the Avengers can't do what she can do. Let's put her in this situation. Fight someone being tied to a chair. Exactly.

I'd like to see Iron Man do that. He could. I mean, he'd have to get his suit. He'd have to be wearing the suit. Yeah, or call his suit. He'd have to call on a suit and the suit would form around him and the chair. And the chair would have like red and gold legs on it. Yeah. And little jets coming out of the legs of the chair. And he'd leave it because gold red and gold legs on it yeah and little jets coming

out of the legs of the chair and he'd leave it because it's a great upgrade to his suit that's right that's that would be and he'd get to sit down whenever he wants nothing better that a man of that age nothing better than having a nice sit down do you think it is like sitting down in that suit because it supports your weight no you don't think so because there wouldn't be any weight to it because it's self-propelled yeah i say right yeah no i think it'd be wearing it'd be like wearing a heavy suit of armor but it's not because if it was he wouldn't be able to move like at all it's got movement i see what you're saying it moves with him okay what i what i think is because if he was standing up the only place

that would ultimately support him would be his butt but then he'd have to sit weird like he's sitting in a chair yeah right so he'd have a weird kink the suit have a weird kink in the middle the new one did have a weird kink in it yeah it did actually maybe he's sitting on his butt in that one yeah good what are we talking about black widow my black widow yeah because that's the thing like i think if you said it in the past i need to move this bovril because i'm going to drink it yeah i know it's i put it on the floor i put mine on the floor um what a terrible... It clings to the inside of your mouth. I'm going to die with this taste in my mouth. Anyway, but you'll die a winner.

Yeah, I guess. But if you said it in the past, then what I feel you're saying is... Again, I could be surprised. They could make a great one in the past. But I feel like if you said it before she's met the Avengers or around Avengers 1 or something like that, it would suggest to me that she's only useful in a world without the Avengers.

Yeah, right. But if you said it now, you go, okay, well, there's aliens and there's time travelers and shapeshifters and Skrulls and all this sort of stuff. And we still need her because she's got the set of skills we need. Exactly. Espionage. Espionage. Great.

Here's some espionage, Mason. I'm ready. Exactly. Espionage. Espionage. Great. Here's some espionage, Mason. I'm ready. Some corporate espionage. Not really. But Hasbro has purchased the Power Rangers license for $522 million. From Haim Saban. Correct. From the Haim Saban Power Rangers movie.

Remember? Yeah, Haim Saban's Power Rangers. I remember. That also includes a bunch of stuff like My Pet Monster, Popples, Julius Jr. Oh, Popples. Remember them? No. It was a soccer ball, but it turned into a little elf creature.

Oh, okay. I understand the concept, but I don't remember them. Julius Jr. Oh, Julius Jr. Yeah, Luna Petunia. No. That's hard to say. And Treehouse Detectives.

No. I know My Pet Monster. I have vague memories of it. Oh, yeah, I remember, yeah. I have vague memories of and I think I remember Popples but it might not be that what do you think about this just so that

Saban have given up on their dreams of having a Power Rangers shared universe already that's interesting because they I mean obviously the Power Rangers

are sort of cobbled together from an assortment of I guess stolen ideas stolen ideas and like old footage from you know Asian superhero TV shows

and stuff like that. It's all sort of been smooshed together to create this new thing. But they did create it from the ground up in a sense. They were the ones who put it all together and now they're chucking it. It's interesting. Okay, yeah. I don't disagree with you, Mason.

So because it's a Hasbro purchase now, it's a Hasbro property,, it's a Hasbro property. Yeah. What does that mean? They might transform us? They might transform us in G.I. Joe and a bunch of stuff. Yeah, right. Or maybe they'll just bin it. I mean, there's money in Power Rangers because it's not like they've stopped making that TV series.

That's true. There's just been multiple incarnations. And maybe they'll go at a gritty future James Van Der Beek reboot like that short film that everybody loved. That would be good. Yeah. Actually good. I understand why. Do you think they'd do a sequel to the previous movie no okay i don't know maybe but no it'd have to be a lot better yeah yeah it'd have to be it'd have to not be instantly forgettable i understand it'd have to it'd have to have a moment in it that is more memorable than the time they all go to crispy cream Kreme. The time that Elizabeth Banks as Rita Repulsa goes to Krispy Kreme

and spends a lot of time in Krispy Kreme. Do you want Pin-Art, Bryan Cranston face on the wall? Yes. Remember he was also a blue alien or something? Yeah, I remember that. Yeah, that was good. He was trapped in a wall. Yeah.

I understand why they didn't go the gritty reboot because remember they made that fan film? It wasn't connected? Yes. I understand why they didn't go the gritty reboot. Because remember they made that fan film. It's not, it wasn't connected. Yes. I understand why they didn't do that. But maybe now you do that. Because a lot of the Power Rangers fans are like our age. Yeah, for sure.

You know, they don't like the appeal. 21. 21 and up. Like to 25-ish. Yeah, sure. Yeah, so. Or a different age. Yeah, a different age potentially.

But maybe this is the time to do that, you know? Because if you just did teenagers again and they, what are their powers? Oh, we don't know if we're ready for this power. Oh, things are changing. So it's like, it's a metaphor probably. Probably was a metaphor. Let's go to Krispy Kreme. And also the designs of the Zords were no good.

I don't remember them like distinctly, any of them looking like anything. The costumes were also fine. Yep. I mean, I like them, I think, more than the original Power Rangers costumes, but at the same time. Yeah, but that was a TV show. Yeah, right. It was just a spandex and a helmet. Yes.

That was it. Yeah. Anyway. Yeah. Been it. But also, I believe that The Rock may also be coming back for another G.I. Joe movie. I think he might be back for G.I. Joe 3. I don't.

Yeah. I mean, I guess then you could work it into... If you're going to work it into Transformers... Yeah. Yeah, I understand. I would love a Transformers G.I. Joe crossover. It could be Wahlberg and The Rock back together. Pain and Gain style.

Maybe they can kidnap and torture somebody else. Yeah. But I mean i that being said though like i would love to see a live action original transformers and original like comic book transformers and comic book gi joe on the big screen i don't know if i particularly want michael bay transformers meeting movie gi joe like Joe. No, I agree. And I also think movie G.I. Joe doesn't really have enough personality to carry that. No, they don't look particularly different, a lot of them,

except for Snake Eyes 2, probably more so. But that movie was just like, and Bruce Willis is a G.I. Joe. Okay, he's just a dad in a t-shirt yeah for sure yeah exactly what does that yeah what does that mean gi joe works if all the characters are like super distinctive and the crazy and crazy and weird yeah exactly if half of them and in these i watched the first one and i quite it was an enjoyable i watched it on a plane coming back from africa i hadn't seen a movie in six months i I really enjoyed it.

It's your favorite movie of all time now. It's my favorite movie. So half the characters in that movie are just people in various assortments of camo. Yeah. Like different, like half of them are wearing urban camo and then some are wearing jungle camo and some are wearing desert camo, but they're all on the same mission. Yeah, right. It's weird.

But like half of them are just dudes in camo. you want you want storm shadow you want snake eyes and those are the only ones from the movies that are distinct yes but everybody else is just like generic and they're even like even cobra commander in the first one even when he turned into cobra commander he didn't even he didn't look like him yeah right destro became destro at the last minute and got a metal face and then who cares? But then they Cobra Commanded him in the second one more. But it's still not a good... They leaned into it more, but it's not enough. Just make...

If they're going to make another one... Don't. Don't. Okay, so it says here, Paramount wants The Rock to return for G.I. Joe Ever Vigilant, which I think is a good name. Yeah, it's probably a bit complicated. What about G.I. Joe Vigilant? Yeah, maybe. I mean, that's is a good name yeah it's probably a bit complicated but what about G.I. Joe vigilant

yeah maybe I mean that's not a better name but I think it's simpler yeah what about G.I. Joe red lasers

versus blue lasers well then you'd know then you'd know right yeah but yeah I don't know yeah

but that's the thing and they just had generic guys and they gave them power suits if I recall that was the first one that's not G.I. Joe no that's thing. And they just had generic guys and they gave them power suits, if I recall. Yeah, that was the first one. That's not G.I. Joe. No, that's guys in power suits. That's guys in power suits.

Give them weird... Give one guy like a fire-retardant suit and a flamethrower and give one guy like he's covered in rockets for some reason. That's a G.I. Joe character. One of them's just Australian and that's his thing. Yeah, Digger. That's it. Digger.

We had Digger. He was the Australian G.I. Joe. Boy, was he. Yeah. Mason Stallone has come out of the woodworks. Yes. He's got a fresh facelift. Like a termite. Like a termite. Like a termite with his skin stretched over his head. We're going to collapse the entertainment industry around us like an old

house. That's right. Like an old bombed out derelict building Apparently Wham, anyway Apparently he's interested in doing Rambo 5 Okay With him as the director

And Rambo's going to be fighting the Mexican cartel When was he last time? Myanmar He was in Burma Yeah, something like that But don't go down River Mason Not unless you want to get macheted in the head or something. Chop a guy's head off with a bowie knife.

Unless you want to walk into this relentless layer of bullets. And I'll just... I remember that last scene in that last movie. I remember it. That bit is wild. It's so wild. He kills like 60 people. Yeah.

And he gets winged in the shoulder. And then he guts and beheads the main guy yeah who's also a pedophile do you remember there's a lot going on in that film it's also the only one i've seen would you watch it again probably yeah not well if they make this i'll watch it again yeah okay so basically here's the synopsis when the daughter of one of his friends is kidnapped of course he doesn't have any kids. No, Rambo, who has been working on a ranch, crosses the US-Mexican border and quickly finds himself up against the full might

of one of Mexico's most violent cartels. There you go. So Rambo hasn't killed a bunch of Mexicans yet, has he? I think so, no. So this is a great opportunity for him. How do you think this would really go in real life? Stallone fighting a cartel. Oh, damn.

One minute. And he's 78 or he's probably not that old. Have you seen that bit in Breaking Bad where the guy gets his head cut off and put on a turtle? Isn't that Danny Trejo? Yeah, I think it might be. And then the turtle wanders up to the authorities and the turtle has a bomb in it and the turtle explodes. And it beats the hair. It's a whole thing.

What I'm saying is that Stallone would step over the border and trip and fall and break his neck. And then he'd be dead. So it wouldn't even get to that point. He'd trip on a little... It's his big platform shoes that he wears when he films. Yeah, he'd trip in a little pothole and then he'd break his neck. I'd watch this. Yeah, sure.

The 80s are back again. Even though I feel like they've already came back. But they're back again and again. Yeah, for sure. Well, that's the thing. We've run out of nostalgia. Correct. For a while there, it was like, hey, it's the 70s and we're talking.

We love the 50s now. Oh, it's the 80s. We love the 60s kind of thing. And then it got to a point where it's like, it's 1995. We love the 80s again. And then the nostalgia window cycle keeps shrinking so i think in any given year at a certain point we'll be like we love the 70s in january and when the 80s in february in the 90s in march you're not wrong man when's the fade gonna go away which one the one at the moment you have

to get short like the 1910s the the i justs. I just think it's a hard haircut to maintain. Oh, absolutely. That's what I'm saying. You know what I mean? Well, then it's going to stick around for a while because it costs money. Fantastic. All right. Anyway, I'll watch this.

Our last bit of news. I just want to quickly talk about this because it leads into our topic for this week. The Cobra Kai TV series, the sequel to The Karate Kid 1, 2, 3, and 4. Not the reboot, but it continues the journey of Ralph Macchio and Blondie McGee Blondie McBully Mr. Bad Guy Bad Guy Cobra Kai I've watched like 6

so I haven't watched any yet I ran out of time it's on you can get YouTube read for free for like 2 weeks or a month

and the first 2 episodes are free I think anyway yes they are should I get YouTube read for this you can cancel it so yes it's very

simple basic 80s good guy good guy, bad guy. There's more of a twist because they're both 50, so it's kind of sad. Is it funny? Yeah, it's funny. Oh, it's not. Okay. Actually, I guess my question is, is it funny? Does it have the same vibe as the movies from the 80s?

Deliberately? No, deliberately, yeah. Because movies from the 80s? Deliberately? Or is it just a case of it's... Because movies from the 80s, I feel, were a lot simpler. Do you think this is a deliberate stylistic choice to make it simple and in the style? So it's not just this story is kind of dumb and simple? No, I mean, yeah. But it's a bit of both.

But there's a charm to it. Okay. I think it was the perfect amount of time to wait. Yep. I think both of the actors are... I think Johnny is a better actor than Ralph Macchio. So Macchio's in this a lot. He's in a lot, yeah.

But it's probably more of Johnny's story, I would say, if you had to lean either way. But it's also... There's a lot of callbacks to the original. They've taken some extra footage from the movies and put them in and stuff like that. From the fight. You really see Johnny get kicked in the face.

And he even calls out Daniel LaRusso that's like, you know, that's an illegal kick. You can't kick someone in the face in a karate tournament. Yeah, right. You shouldn't have won, you know, which is true, I'd imagine. But it's just simple, straightforward. And I watch a lot of shows that are like The Handmaid's Tale. It's just a harrowing nightmare of people getting raped and murdered.

Yeah, right. And it's just nice to flick something on and go, this is just a bit of a fun throwback kind of thing. So it is fun. Yeah. You were saying it was sad earlier. There's sad. What do you mean like sad as in?

See, that's the thing. In watching the trailers for this, it looked like A, a funny or die sketch that's gone too far. Yeah. Or B, like an episode of Scrubs. Does it feel at any point like either of those not overly to be honest i mean it's not shot particularly like cinematically or anything like that right i mean it feels like a tv show i guess yeah it's uh look i think it's i think it's good for what it is cool yeah and it's

better than probably karateate Kid 3, where he learns evil karate. Is it better than that NES game we played? Oh, God, yes. The Karate Kid trilogy game. Everything's better than that in the world, Mason. God, everybody should check that out if they haven't, if you want to see the worst thing in the world.

But I thought this would be a good lead-in to classic 80s action films that we could talk about. Oh, let's talk about it. Because probably not everybody's seen this, but everybody's seen at least one 80s action film. I would hope so. We put the call out there on Twitter. We put it out there on the Great Mates page. Many people haven't, though.

I feel like there'd be a generation of listeners that we have that maybe haven't seen any of them. That's very possible. Because there's just so many action movies to watch and superhero movies. There's so much stuff going on. Maybe you haven't gone back to any of these movies. Because in a way, they all look really dumb. Well, maybe the idea is that at the end, we make a decision in terms of what's the essential ones or top three. Okay, yeah, all right.

Let's go with maybe a top three. Yeah. Yeah, that's enough. That's not an overwhelming amount. I think we should also, if we go through a few of these, maybe we could talk about the reboots or if they haven't had a reboot, should they get a reboot or a sequel? Okay.

What should they get? All right. Well, a lot of these do, but yes. Yeah, well. For all that, Mason, I need to talk about Harry's razors. Oh, all right. I love the closeness of the shave.

I love the smooth. I love it more than you. Oh, I love the smooth and comfortable glide. I love it more than you. I love the weight of the razor handle. I love it more than you. I, I love the smooth and comfortable glide. I love it more than you. I love the weight of the razor handle. I love it more than you. I love sniffing butts at the bus stop. Are we still in the ad?

I'm sorry, what? Continue. I love the scent of the shave gel. Me too. Great. But not more than me. No, these equal amount. Okay, good.

The thing about Harry's is, Mason, they were fed up again with paying overpriced razors. Everybody's fed up with paying overpriced everything. Yeah, I know, right? Well, things cost a lot of money these days. They certainly do. Not when you cut out the middleman and they go straight to your door, Mason.

They're made of sharp and durable steel that lasts. Whooshing! That's right, which is the truth. And that's why they bought a factory in Germany to make some of the highest quality blades in the world. Whooshing! Whooshing! Also got a special offer. And that's why they bought a factory in Germany to make some of the highest quality blades in the world. Whoosh-ing! Whoosh-ing! Also got a special offer.

You know, because switching to Harry's razors, it says here it's a simple decision. They know that switching razors isn't an easy decision. Sorry, it's not a simple decision. Oh, well, all right. So in order to... Well, if you didn't know about Harry's razors, it might have been a difficult decision.

That's true. But with Harry's razors on the table... Do not spill that. Oh, sorry. You're just flipping over that jar of Bovril like it's not going to ruin this room if you drop that. It's very tight. The lid's on.

It's all right. So they've created a trial offer, which you can get if you go to harrys.com slash weekly planet. Again, and it works out to be something like $2 a blade compared to $4 if you're buying from a store and it's quality guaranteed if you don't love a shave harry's let them know within 30 days and they'll give you a full refund so with the with the trial offer you get 13 worth of value which includes a weighted ergonomic handle five

blade razor with a lubricating strip and trimmer blade rich lathering shave gel which we both love equally and a travel travel blade cover which is way more useful than you'd think. Okay, must read verbatim. Listeners of my show. Have we got any feedback on that? Have they been like, you know the bit you have to read verbatim? Can you not say please read verbatim? They haven't said for me not to do it.

Okay, they won't continue to do it. Listeners of my show. It says my show, basically. So they're working with a lot of solo podcasters. It seems that way. Can redeem their trial set at harrys.com slash weekly planet. Make sure you go to harrys.com slash weekly planet to redeem your offer and let them know that I sent you to help support the show.

Now let them know Mace has sent you. Also, a lot of people have been doing that and they tweet at us and they're like, I got my trial set. And it's good. It's real good. I like them a lot. I've got my dad onto them. Yeah.

And he shaves. Yeah. All right. Mesa. Okay, if we're talking 80s movies. Yes. Why don't we start with The Karate Kid? Okay.

We can't include four, because it goes well into the 90s, and it also has Hilary Swank. But I would say The Karate Kid, it's a really solid film i mean it's just rocky with karate now are you factoring in what i feel we should factor in does this movie still hold up as a movie like with all of these or just as an 80s movie you know the there's an 80s movie vibe yeah and there's a certain simplicity to a lot of 80s movies.

Like A Breakfast Club or is that Transcends, would you say? Yeah, I think it might do actually, yeah. But you know how 80s movies, they have this, they're really broad strokes. Yeah, right. And they kind of, they're like, we've got to save the rec center or whatever. And it's just like, well, why don't you talk to your parents and get a loan? Whatever, like, you know. That's a good point.

There's no, it's just like well why don't you talk to your parents and get alone whatever like you know it's a good point is there's no it's just because they don't work at the country club or they don't they're not members of the country club don't you remember that's a really good point actually it's the country club but what i'm saying is they're they these movies work in a lot of broad strokes i don't know if it's a product of the era or the product of the genre or whatever but they they're they're quite. And I think maybe action movies have added a layer of depth now that we didn't have then. So I guess my question is, does this still hold up as a movie or just an 80s movie? I feel it holds up as a movie, especially the first one,

probably not the sequels, because the core relationship between Daniel LaRusso and Mr. Miyagi is really good. And there's that great scene of Pat Morita who's talking about how his wife dies and whatever and he's drunk and he's whatever and they fix the car together and there's a whole lot of stuff with just those two

and that's the reason this movie works as a film yeah the karate's fine I guess, I mean how many kids went and saw this movie do you you think, in the 80s and then went and signed up for karate lessons? Oh, all of them. Every child in the world.

Yeah, that's it. And then they did it for two weeks. And then they're like, there's a lot of rolling on the ground and not a lot of kicking people in the face. When do I get my gi? I probably won't go anymore, but then they had to pay out the rest of the year. That's right. And their parents were mad at them.

Yeah. So would you say this doesn't factor into look i think i think you're right in the sense that the the relationship between miyagi and daniel is good do we know what his first name is miyagi mister mister okay cool great good stuff i can look that up i think that's good but i think karate wise yeah just action wise no good no but that's a function of you know uh that that is a function of the era and a function of how you know cinematography techniques in western cinema at the time yeah this is how you're gonna do this how you're gonna play out karate whereas i think you know even like chinese or Chinese or Hong Kong cinema at the time,

we're seeing some wild stuff in karate. But that's not, that hasn't been brought over to the West yet. Yeah, right. Yeah, fair point. I mean, I guess there was in the 70s, but they weren't mainstream films. It was still very much cult stuff. Yeah, right. Yeah.

I don't disagree with you, Mason. I can't find his first name. Yeah, and I also think, no, that's all right. I think that like. I'll find it. Yeah. No, I think that like the, the, the Hollywood machine is, was very much set in its ways. Yes.

Back then. And so they would be like, well, that's not the techniques we use. We're going to use this stuff. We're going to use some, we're going to use that, that one shot. We're going to use, we're going to use a lot of cutaways to make this Kung Fu karate happen. Yeah. Right. Yeah.

Whereas now if they, if they were going to do another karate kid movie it'd be well it looks like mma all the way but also it'd be well if you watch the the newer one the jayden smith one he he looks like he's trained yeah right yeah so i think they really went his name's noriyuki pat marita right but that's the actor's name what's mr miyagiagi's name? No, that's what he's called. It says, as Noriyuki Pat Morita, even though his name is Miyagi. Huh, all right. I don't know. That doesn't make any sense.

No, that makes heaps of sense. I don't know what they've done here. So, okay. Well, and I guess that my question is, going back to Cobra Kai, how's the karate looking Cobra Kai? It's still pretty flat. Okay, right. Yeah, but it's not terrible.

Yeah, sure. It's fine. Do you think that's a budget issue, or do you think that's a, we want to but it's not terrible yeah sure it's it's it's fine do you think that's a budget issue or do you think that's a uh we want to make it look like i think it's probably an element of both yeah right yeah but there's but there is some good stuff in it there's there's a there's a there's at the start when the the bully from the original karate kid i can't remember johnny beats up some teenagers there's moments in it and that where it's like oh this guy can kick. Right, yeah, because he's a real martial artist.

But then there's other moments where you're like, oh. Oh, he can't kick. And even if you look at bits like. But then you're like, oh, he can kick. From the bits. Oh, but now he can't kick. You go back and watch Pat Morita beat up those skeleton teenagers. It's ridiculous.

That dude would be beaten to death. Yeah, right. He's so slow and they're all just flipping around that's what i'm talking about that stuff yeah that's that's that's i feel like it where you go oh this is good for a movie in the 80s yeah but if you if you watch it now you're like why wouldn't anyone why why is there this seeming why is this element of magic to this character where he can beat up all these teens where in reality they just kill him? It's plot contrivance. It's just they went, yeah, just have him beat him up.

Yeah, he's like four feet tall. We can't really talk about just the Karate Kid. It's an all Karate Kid episode. Interesting fact though, at the start of Karate Kid 2, it ends just after the first one where they're in the car park and the boss of the Cobra Kai is like beating up Johnny. That was shot for the end of the first Karate Kid and they tacked it on to the...

And then the scene after that, Daniel LaRusso's like, oh, that girl, she dumped me. And then they go to Japan or whatever. But anyway, where do you want to go from here? There's so many. There's so many. Look, a perennial favourite for me and one that does I feel... Robocop. You're going to say Robocop? I was going to say Die Hard. Look, a perennial favorite for me and one that does, I feel, hold up.

Robocop. You're going to say Robocop? I was going to say Die Hard. Okay, yeah, absolutely. Yeah, why? But, I mean, Robocop is just... No, Robocop is still good for a movie. I think so.

But Die Hard. Die Hard was the first movie as... I don't think it was the first movie. No, I'm sticking to my guns. It was the first movie as... I don't think it was the first movie. No, I'm sticking to my guns. It was the first movie. Do you remember Die Hard where the train was coming out at all the viewers? And everybody ran away.

And they were like, ah! You know that one? Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. That's Die Hard, isn't it? That's Die Hard. Exactly, that's right. But it was the first movie, I think, of that era where the hero wasn't

an indestructible mountain of a man. I guess Rambo could say that, but he was still trained. Yes, exactly. But like, the rise of the

indestructible Schwarzenegger, Schwarzenegger, Lundgren, Chuck Norris, where they're the biggest man in the world and they're perfect and indestructible

and everything's just a minor inconvenience. Whereas with Bruce Willis as McClane, we have a man who is so vulnerable. He's got no shoes. And it's terrifying because he's got no shoes. As a grown-up with a child, I imagine you can relate to that because there's probably Lego just sitting around on the ground. I've stepped on so much. And Claire puts all her stuff at the foot of the bed sometimes.

And I have to walk around to go to the bathroom, which I have to do in the night because I'm over 21, between 21 and 25. Between 21 and 25 or a different age. Or a different age. And I always trip over all her shit. It drives me crazy. But enough about my personal grievances with my wife.

Oh, sure, and child, yep. But that's what this movie has lost. These movies have lost. This is why they shouldn't make these anymore because Bruce Willis' fundamental understanding of what makes that character good is wrong. He's gone now.

He doesn't get it. Yeah, exactly, yeah. Die Hard 4 is fine, but he's completely, mostly indestructible in that one. 5 I couldn't get it. Yeah, exactly. Die Hard 4 is fine, but he's completely, mostly indestructible in that one. 5 I couldn't get through. Yeah. He thinks that the reason people go to these movies, go to Die Hard movies particularly, is for Bruce Willis the man.

Yeah. But we don't. We went to Die Hard and people loved Die Hard, especially the first one. That's why we didn't see Death Wish. Went to Die Hard and people loved Die Hard, especially the first one. That's why we didn't see Death Wish. Because people love John McClane, the put-upon, kind of depressed guy who's not having a great life. Thinning hair.

And he's been put in a situation he has to fight his way out of. That's what people are related to. And the more you get rid of his widow's peak and make him indestructible, he's not compelling anymore. No, exactly. They should bring him back. Okay, you can't do widow's peak because he probably doesn't have a widow's peak anymore. Go out the horseshoe then. Give him a long horseshoe. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Not even long. Just make it a couple of inches long. Long horseshoe and then maybe like a weaker stubble. Yeah, absolutely. It'd look great. Yeah. Like you said, though, he's not super ripped he's not he's cunning but he's not smarter than anybody else in particular yeah right he's just a survivor uh-huh you know yeah yeah anyway we better move on okay even though they're

making a new one but it's also a prequel or whatever oh yeah yeah die hard first day of camp yeah i know what you're talking about i you want me to duck into duck into Twitter yes this is from Will Will Sliny I hope I'm saying that right or it might be Sliny Sliny is it?

no okay it's probably Sliny he's an artist for Marvel he does Spider-Man Scarlet Spider Spider-Man 2099 Superior Spider-Man

he's done a bunch of awesome stuff but he's done this print that's got a bunch of 80s action heroes in it including Mr. T. One of them up front here, front left, is Mel Gibson from Lethal Weapon. I don't think they stand up, having not seen them. And maybe it's just the Mel Gibson thing.

Maybe it's the saxophone. Maybe it's the saxophone. Maybe the first one's good, but they feel like the same movie. Like he's a loose unit and then he's he's reluctantly you know even though danny club is like 42 he's like retire or whatever uh-huh and then someone in their family gets kidnapped and then he has to have to rescue them and then yeah they shoot somebody international or whatever yeah i think in i think the the diet the lethal weapon series is very much of its time. Yes. And I think the arc of Riggs in particular, like I think if you like that character,

as the movies go ahead, he becomes, you know, he gets over the death of his wife, is it? And then he becomes, like he readjusts and he reintegrates with society. Does he learn Kung Fu or something as he goes, it seems? No, no, no, no. But he can kick more he can do more well yeah we can all do more kicks can't we yeah i think one and two are maybe okay uh-huh

three's got a powerful mullet but beyond that yeah a lot and i but i also think that in because we're like people were so invested in the character they became too shiny and clean and because he was just he was just drinking in his caravan and screaming at the moon in the first one. Exactly, yeah. That was what he was doing. Exactly, yeah. But as they progressed, they became like so...

If you see the newer posters, they're so clean cut and so fresh. And that mullet, it's got so much bounce to it. Yeah, and then he loses it all together. Yeah. No, and then he loses it all together. Yeah. No, I don't think... Maybe they're of their time, but I don't think they probably don't hold up, I would say.

Another one on here, though, is one of your faves, which I've never seen. Big Trouble in Little China. Yeah. I think I've started to watch it once, and then, I don't know, it didn't grab me. I don't know. Did you have a heart attack?

I might have had a heart attack. Yeah about that from the excitement yeah is that is that 80s good or is that good good uh it's i think it's good good yeah i mean it is very much of its time but it is also out of time insofar as it is so weird. Yeah. He's a truck driver who gets involved in weird ancient Chinese magic and he goes on a bizarre adventure through Chinatown, but Chinatown is also connected to the underworld. Yeah. And he fights Raiden. Yes.

And it's- Raiden Raiden? No, it's just a guy who looks like Raiden. Cool. Is that where they took Raiden from? Yeah, basically. Right. He fights the three storms.

Yeah, right. These guys who have like... Halle Berry. Yes, exactly. The perfect storm. The big wave. That's right. But they have like... The Melbourne storm.

The entire rugby team. Can he do a third one? I did it. I did it. Did you? Halle Berry storm. Yep. The perfect storm.

The wave. Okay. Melbourne storm. I thought you meant Halle Berry was the perfect storm. No, Mason. All right. Okay. Yeah. right okay yeah okay sorry keep going it's all right uh but anyway he fights all those dudes and uh but i also think the character 100 holds up because again because a little bit like john mcclain he's just really mostly an average guy yeah but he's a really confident he's really he's a really confident loud mouth and I think the character definitely pushes that movie through

there's a lot of love for this because some of the first responses Jared Hunt, David Green, Ormsbot all big trouble in Little China and it's also a movie that I guess you don't see this much anymore which is grown ups getting involved with this sort of stuff

in what sense? in most movies if you like, it's going to be an occult film and somebody's going to get thrown into a world of adventure. Oh, it's like a kid in Greenlands or whatever. It's always beautiful teens getting thrown into maze runners or whatever.

Yeah. People are loving bloody... Yeah, they love this. Oh, James has said, on the Great Planet Broadcasting Great Mates group, check it out. It's a great group. Jesus Christ Superstar. Does that superstar does that count yeah it counts probably as an 80s action yeah i think so is the action singing that isn't that bit where he jumps into two guns

two guns no they've been two guns jesus christ superstar yeah two guns i can't rule it out okay good yeah yeah uh colton says tron do you think that counts or is that more kind of sci-fi? That's a sci-fi movie. Colton, what are you doing? Thank you for your contribution, but you're absolutely wrong. We're banning you from the group. 80s action movie, guns are blazing. Okay.

If one of the main characters on the poster has like an Uzi under each arm, like Chuck Norris style. Two guns. Two guns Two guns Like Jesus Christ Superstar I think that the go-to Yes Even though it's not necessarily a good movie

But it's It's an 80s action movie We'll see It's not a good movie Commando Yeah That absolutely epitomizes 80s action movies

He's just carrying a big Block of wood He's carrying the big Eating ice cream with his daughter Yeah Alyssa A young Alyssa Milano Alyssa Mil yeah uh huh a young Alyssa Milano Alyssa Milano

Alyssa Milano Alyssa Milano yeah yeah what year did Peter Quill get kidnapped I just need to work this out if you could

if you could work that out but I'm going to talk about Commando at length while you look that up yeah do that because I need to work something out because yeah

that movie it's just that movie's just filled with 80s plot contrivances. Yeah, right. Like, they... His daughter gets kidnapped.

His name's John Matrix. Yes. He gets... They put him on a plane to escort him to his death, but they don't kill him. Yes. But they put him on the plane with a henchman, and while it's taking off, he breaks the guy's neck,

and then he leaps out of the plane, just a commercial airliner. And he falls like a thousand feet, and he's fine, because he lands in a swamp. And then he's just like... And there's never a question about it. He doesn't get banged up, he doesn't break a leg, and then he has to do the rest of the movie on a pair of broken legs. He just rolls out...

He just does a combat roll out of a plane that's taking off. He lands in a swamp and then he's just like, well, time to get my daughter back. And he sets his watch and he's like, okay, I got a bloody rescue before this time. And then he just goes to a sporting goods store. Yes. And then he just opens the back

and it's filled with machine guns and rocket launchers. Does he know someone there? I have seen this movie. No, I think he just goes to a random store that's america man yeah man yeah oh man have you not seen command i have seen it i just haven't seen in a long time i just remember at the end he just runs in and he takes no cover and he kills like 150 people that is yeah because you have to you have to you have to uh enjoy the main character so much. Yeah. You have to be on board with the main character's personality

that every single flaw in the movie, you just go, oh, it's fine, he'd be able to do that. He's Arnold. And it's sort of built on the back of him being Arnold. Yeah. You love Arnold and you always want Arnold to triumph. And at the end,

he kills a slightly doughy man in a chain mail singlet. Bennett, who is an Australian actor whose name I cannot recall right now. Let off some steam, Bennett. Oh, that's right. At the start, he's feeding a deer with his daughter. Okay, she would be about the same age as Peter Quill, maybe a bit older.

Okay. So he probably knows her from like... Was she in a TV show? No, she knows him. Oh, maybe, but this was 85 and he was kidnapped in 88. Okay, well, that's fine. So he would have been eight when he was kidnapped. Right.

Yeah, so this makes sense. It lines up. It lines up, okay. This isn't another one of those Marvel Universe timeline continuity errors that have just ruined my enjoyment of these films. I don't think Commando's good. No. I would say if you're going to watch, it's probably his most iconic, but I think aside

from probably the Terminator, the best Arnold action film in the 80s is Predator. Yes, absolutely. Predator is great. Yeah. Like modern day great. Absolutely. You'll get no argument here. Were you expecting some pushback from that?

I guess so. Huh. Yeah. What about, why do you like Predator? It feels new. Yeah, right? Like it seems like new ideas even when you watch it now. Yeah.

And I think that's why I also like Predator so much because it borrows so much from Predator. Yeah, right. Yeah. And it's... And it's dumb. It's dumb, but also it doesn't hold the audience's hand through a lot of it yeah we just we get glimpses of the the predator and we learn what it's capable of but there isn't a scientist on board who's just like well it must be using holographic

camouflage devices they kind of figure it out but none of them are scientists. Also, I think this would be a good one to show people if you don't know what this is, because it's not an alien film, and then it is. Yeah, that's true, yeah. Or is it revealed at the start that there's an alien spaceship? Well, if it is, just don't show your friends that. Yeah, just skip that bit. Skip that bit.

But yeah, it's a whole other movie, and then it becomes a whole other movie. But no, I'm a big fan, yeah. A few people said that. Gavin Ironsider said Predator. What about the Death Wish movies? Says Mr. Sunday. This is from Mr. Sunday Sleep In.

I wish, mate. I've never seen them, Death Wish. Yeah, I've seen. They used to play them on like channel nine yeah right like 8 30 on a thursday or something like that or maybe you know what i think they played them at 9 30 on a thursday because they were a bit much whoa they were a bit much for a general audience so that's playing like a game show and then they would play death wish at 9 30 yeah yeah but i did not watch no i'm sure i saw snippets but but he was just trying to clean up his community or something

like that, yeah. Drugs and gangs or whatever. Also, I think it's one of those movies where old white men can be like, yeah, that could be me. I absolutely think it is, yeah. I think as a... Societally, I think maybe the world has moved on from those movies. Because that was also the era of gang violence was out of control

and all that kind of stuff. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But that was the perception of it. Actually, well, gang violence has decreased of control and all that kind of stuff. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. But that was the perception of it. Actually, well, gang violence has decreased quite a lot. Like in the 90s, it took a dive for various reasons. Yeah. So I think this kind of leant into that in a big way. Yeah.

I mean, Aliens. It's great. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the only Alien movie in the 80s? Yes. Yeah. Because Alien was... 79. was 79 79 yeah there we go okay this is as 80s as you can get it's entertaining but it's probably not a good movie or maybe it is tango and cash yeah for sure okay yeah so one's a button down wall Wall Street cop for some reason, which is Stallone. And the other one is just a gruff mullet guy with an idiot.

No, an idiot guy with a mullet, which is Kurt Russell. And they're both excellent cops, but for different reasons. And they get wrongfully imprisoned for a murder. Then they have to work together to escape and clear their names. And they're just trying to high-five. they do at the end and then they get their picture in the newspaper, high fiving at the end after they beat everybody. Is that right? It feels more like a 90s movie.

What? Because it's Kurt Russell? I don't know. It just, it feels, I don't know. Yeah? Yeah. Maybe it is a 90s movie. Go ahead.

I think it's 89. Okay. But let's have a look. I think it's 89. Okay. But let's have a look. Yes, 89. Yeah, so it's leaning into that though, I guess. Yeah. What about Bloodsport? Do you ever see that?

Is that Van Damme? Yeah. Never seen it. All the Van Damme movies from that era blend together to me. Even Universal Soldier. Bloodsport, Cyborg, except for Universal Soldier. Yeah, right. And Time Cop.

Well, that's 90s. It's the 90s. That's what I'm talking about. It's the mullet for Universal Soldier. Yeah, right. And Time Cop. Well, that's the 90s. That's what I'm talking about. It's the mullet man. Here's one. Iconic, swashbuckler, cool hat. He's got a cool chick on his side just screaming at him the entire time. Michael Douglas in Romancing the Stone. For sure.

Yeah, okay. What do you think? There's a certain charm to those movies. There is. I remember seeing that as a kid being like, this should be nothing. But it's fun. It was a romance in the stone and there was a sequel as well.

Jewel of the Nile. Were they a deliberate response to Indiana Jones? I 100% think so. Just like Quigley down under. Yeah, for sure. And do you think they have the charm of that? I think Michael Douglas carries that. And who's the woman in that? Turlington something, is it?

I can't remember. I can't remember. But Kathleen Turner? Kathleen something? Kathleen Turner? No. Christy Turlington? No.

Romancing the Stonecast. Kathleen Turner. Sorry. It is Kathleen Turner Sorry It is Kathleen Turner But no I mean Indiana Jones

All of those movies Came out in the 80s Sorry All of the good ones Well If you don't Unless you don't like Temple of Doom

But if you don't You're wrong Because it's It's everything about that movie Is just on point He's making a face That suggests that Everything about that movie

Is not on point It's got good action Yeah alright It's got some good on point it's got good action so yeah all right that's a good moment and it's non-stop which i appreciate very much non-stop and he just has to rescue some hot rocks for a village or whatever but those movies i think are the best action movies from the 80s indiana jones yes for sure yeah i mean i know predator's great but oh and you look at the consistency of those three films they're all in that decade yep i mean predator's good uh-huh but

i think if i mean indiana jones also it set trends and it raised the bar for action yeah and like on score on screen stunts and special effects and it achieved what is very difficult to achieve now, which is like a period piece. Yeah. That is enjoyable. Yes. Or that works as an action movie. They tried to do it in The Rocketeer. And doesn't feel like just we're wedging this in.

Yeah. The Mummy did it. The Mummy did it. Yeah, okay. The new one. Oh, yeah. Tom Cruise did The Mummy, for sure. Yeah, yeah.

Do you think they should be romancing the stone reboot? It's very difficult to do anything. Well, it's very difficult to do anything that is like, we're exploring the outer reaches of the jungle or whatever now because it's all been done. You can just look at it from Google. You can look at it on Google Maps, exactly. I can look at it on my phone right now.

I could spy on a tribe if I wanted to. Yeah, I don't know. I think there's... Yeah, I think you could do it i mean because how many of us have actually done that i mean i have because i've traveled but how many else of us have done oh are you saying don't don't put a don't put a grizzled seasoned adventurer in the title role not necessarily just an idiot yeah an idiot or somebody who's you know you're john mcclain it but it's the jungle but he's's from Queens. Cop in the Jungle.

Cop in the Jungle. Well, what's The Jungle Book? Not The Jungle Book. Well, that is... What's bloody... Welcome to the Jungle. It's that. It's a video game. That's...

Oh, do you mean Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle? Yeah, sorry. I thought you meant... I mean, that's a good film. I was going to say, not Welcome to the Jungle. The Rock Welcome to the Jungle. But they both have The Rock in them. But The Rundown, which is a movie from the early 2000s, I think.

Yeah, 2003 maybe. That is a movie with The Rock as buttoned down and by the book as it's possible to be. It opens with him beating up a football team in a nightclub. Yes, it does. An XFL team. And it ends with him shooting a gun out of Christopher Walken's hand. But that's only in the trailer.

Or is it? No, his reaction is only in the trailer. That's the best movie of the 80s. A movie that came out in 2003. I agree. But Indiana Jones, okay. How are you feeling currently about the next Indiana Jones movie? Look, I didn't love Ready Player One.

Okay. But it's Indiana Jones and I'm willing to... The same way that The Force Awakens kind of... I think it could be as good as The Force Awakens. Yeah, right. I don't think it's going to go beyond that. It's definitely not going to be the best one. It's probably not going to bring in a lot of new ideas. i'd be very surprised if you went out to the jungle and did

any of this or you know which or out to a you know i don't i don't you know i think you could it could be good but i don't think it'll be better than the force awakens yeah right okay yeah and i don't think it'll probably be that good what do you think i don't think it's going to be worse than the last one no absolutely not i think i think lessons have been learned yeah uh and there yeah there's no way it could be worse and they've taken i think i think if they again if if they take pains to factor in that indiana jones is currently a very old man yeah and he shouldn't be able to do very old very young man things yep which is again that is that is a contrivance of the 80s of like you know it's a mr miyagi it's a very old man and he shouldn't be able to do very young man things. Yep. Which is, again,

that is a contrivance of the 80s of like, you know, it's a Mr. Miyagi. It's, well, why couldn't he beat up all these Nazis? He's Indiana Jones

because he's old and they'd all beat him up. He's 78. Like, he's got to be, he's got to be crafty and he's got to, he's got to... One step ahead.

He's got to have a gun. That's how he's got to... Yeah, right. Exactly, yes. That's how he's going to stay ahead. Yes, yes, yes. Yeah, yeah. But I know. Okay, we're going to burn through a few more of these.

What about Escape from New York? Or is it LA? Of its time... Yeah, there's two. Kind of boring? The first one, Escape from New York. Look, after the thrills and chills of Big Trouble in Little China, it's not my favourite Kurt Russell movie or character, Snake Plissken.

Sure. I'm going to say doesn't hold up. Yeah, I'd agree with that. What about the sequel? Even more doesn't hold up. Okay. It's a sequel nobody wanted for sure. Come on.

Come on. This is from Alex and the Great Mates group, Alexander Mungoven. The Running Man. We watched that together. Did we? So it's a video, it's a TV show where you put on spandex. Did we watch that together? Yeah, yeah.

At the movies. No. No, because we were younger, because we were between 21 and 25. Or a different age. Currently, yeah. But no, we watched it at my place like 10 years ago. Oh, yeah, yeah, I remember that. Okay.

Yeah, yeah. Don't they pretend that he's dead because they put a CGI face on him for any someone fights, a wrestler fights him. I don't remember it being particularly good, but it's very 80s. Oh, for sure. Yeah. Do you want a Running Man? I would like a Running Man sequel.

Why? Not a sequel, a reboot. A prequel. Because the book that it's based on is quite different. Yeah. The concept of the show is a lot different. There's no colorful spandex American Gladiator style villains and heroes. Yeah.

It's just people, just regular people running from hunters in the streets of cities. And they can go anywhere around the world. Right. And that is the... It's less of it's televised. It's more of like a game of long distance chess. The Purge? Yeah, kind of.

No, not really. It's more that you sign up and people try to hunt you down every day. And you have to send a video. You have to record a videotape every day and send it into the station just to prove you're still alive. And the longer you... If you last 100 days, you live. And you get a billion dollars or something. That's pretty good.

Yeah, I know, right? What happens if you don't? You die because someone kills you. What happens if you keep sending in like you pre-record your video tapes? Oh, a whole bunch. I don't know.

You win, I guess. I mean, you'd have to show up at the end, wouldn't you, to collect your prize, presumably, to get your billion dollars. Good point. Unless that's a trick

and they murder you. Well, I can't remember how it ends so maybe that is how it ends. Got here from Marty Green. Although, that being trick and they murder you. Well, I can't remember how it ends, so maybe that is how it ends. Got here from Marty Green. Although, that being said, did you watch Series 7, The Contenders? No. That was very much more in the style of... This came out in like 2000 and it was a...

The premise of the movie was that there was a reality show called The Contenders. Oh. And basically... I know. You're thinking of the movie Ed TV. I am thinking of Ed TV. I love Ed TV. Eddie McConaughey. Yeah. He's a great actor. And Woody Harrelenders. Oh. And basically, I know. You're thinking of the movie Ed TV. I am thinking of Ed TV. I love Ed TV. Eddie McConaughey.

Yeah. He's a great actor. And Woody Harrelson. Yeah. He's just living life. Series 7, The Contenders, was about a TV series called The Contenders. And basically, everybody in America is on board,

whether they want to or not. It's never really explained why. But basically, one day, you get a message, a message a letter and it's like you're in the contenders and then you have to kill all the other members and if you survive how do you know who's who i think you get pictures of the other guys but uh is it the future or is it just it's a it's a very near future but it's quite like dark angel not that no it No, it's pretty much like regular. Okay. And basically, if you survive three seasons, you... Get a movie. Yeah, exactly.

If you survive three seasons, you're done and you're the big winner. And we're up to series seven. Yeah. And there's a woman on who is... This is her last season. If she survives, she gets to live. And she's also pregnant and she's got a

it's a good movie I don't know if it still holds up but we're not talking about it we're talking about movies from the 80s series 7 The Contenders okay interesting Marty Grievous says

Top Gun you've never seen I've never seen Top Gun all the way through but it's a movie that I've pieced together using context and jokes

there's a dance which I know from Hot Shots 2 yep there's a dance which i know from hot shots too yep there's a greasy volleyball game which you know from memes and gifs yep uh i know i know there's some uh aerial dog fighting which i know because the first episode of jag uses clips from top gun does it really in in the first episode as their action sequences. It's literally the same. It's like... Didn't they even flip, like reverse it?

I don't know, maybe, but I remember it says the clips courtesy of Top Gun. That's right. Do they keep doing that? They just use the entirety of Top Gun. Oh, yeah. They're just like, this is from Top Gun, and they just have the volleyball scene. Right, yeah.

Whatever. People like this one, so we're putting this in. So what do you think of Top Gun? It's all right. I don't really remember it. I tied that and Days of Thunder together. It's like Tom Cruise action movies that I don't give a shit about. Sure, yeah.

Yeah. But it's getting a sequel. And I think, you know what? I think it's a good one for a sequel. Because they haven't done anything with it since. I think there's been a few video games. Like even more modern ones. Not just that shit's in the sequel do we know any details gonna come back as goose or maverick or whatever the hell his name is but is he gonna be is he gonna

be the guy i think he's gonna be the trainer i think who's the guy one of the guys from the movie is like the boss yeah it's the boss radar it's radar It's Radar and Klinger. Yeah. His bosses. And Colonel Sherman Potter. They're in charge. But no. And I guess he trains the new Top Guns. But it's also probably about like drones, I think, and AI. Okay. Like stealth.

Oh, no. This sounds bad. Okay. Yeah. Cool, man. What else we got here? Daniel. This is an interesting one. Daniel Rutter says the Dalton Bonds,ton bonds which i've never seen they're good i've heard they're good

in particular the first one is that right they're big action set piece bond yeah like these are the ones that kicked off because bond the bond movies are very of varying quality as they are yeah uh these are like pre-Daniel Craig style Bond films, right? Yes, they are. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it was Dalton, then we got, for two movies, we got Pierce Brosnan for a whole bunch, and then we got Daniel Craig.

But prior to Dalton, we got a lot, we got fun stunts from time to time. Yeah. There's a car corkscrewing off a bridge in the mouth of the gullet where they put a slide whistle sound effect in. So there were some big stunts, but this put in like if you want a massive truck chase and huge explosions and just this set the tone for...

Gritty Bond? For Gritty Bond, yeah. It was more comic, not comic book, it was more book-based Bond, wasn't it? Yeah, a little bit, I think, yeah. Yeah. So, worth a watch, you reckon? I should go back and watch those. Yeah, you should watch them, yeah.

Because I know he was... Dalton, not Dalton, Brosnan was supposed to be this Bond, but he could... And Dalton was supposed to be... He got offered the previous incarnation, but he was, and he, and Dalton was supposed to be, he got offered the, the previous incarnation, but he was really young. Okay. Right. And so he didn't do it.

I think he turned it down and then Brosnan couldn't get out of Remington steel. Oh, and then they were going to get Dalton, which is a, which is a appliance store. Yes. Couldn't find his way out of it for a couple of years. Hello.

But, uh, that maybe you shouldn't be living here remember that i remember it yeah and then dalton didn't want to come back by the time like 95 rolled around it was a new era and whatever but uh yeah uh this interesting one this is from uh ashley's on twitter roadhouse very 80s very very 80s in so far as very homoerotic and it's in its 80s because it's got this we it exists in a world where bouncers are famous like they're known for their great deeds he's so fine he's the most famous bouncer in america this guy he's a celebrity

bouncer and you have to buy into that premise for more or less all of that movie to work yeah and at the end he rips a man's throat out oh yeah so that's good I mean Star Wars people have said Star

yeah it's more sci-fi sci-fi yeah and people have said like Back to the Future Mad Max 2 and 3 it's from Daniel Schilling but he says Mad Max 2

that's a solid film man that's the second best Mad Max film yeah it is. To the new one. Which is really, really good. Yeah. What else we got here, Mason?

What else is bloody going on? Do you know? I've got a list here. Okay, I'm ready. Rocky. I mean, they're not all in the 80s. Does that count as an action movie because it doesn't have any guns in it? You can have an action movie without guns

give me an example that isn't I mean Karate Kid which we started with and we've spoken about I didn't have one so I'm glad you shot down your own argument there yeah thank you that's a relief

Conan there you go Conan doesn't have any guns in it that's fantasy okay fine what about missing and Rocky is obviously boxing fantasy yeah

as if he'd win ever he just lets himself get hit in the head yeah yeah And Rocky is obviously boxing fantasy. Yeah. As if he'd win ever. He just lets himself get hit in the head. Yeah. Yeah. But three and four in particular, two is most of the same as one, except he wins. I don't even know if I've seen it. But three and four are the most 80s movies you've ever seen in your life. Oh, for sure.

Yeah. In a good way. They really stand out for being of that time. Have you seen Missing in Action? I don't know any of the Chuck Norris films. I was never a Chuck Norris guy. Me neither. And I don't, I just, you know what?

I don't like, he's got a vibe I don't like. Yeah, me too. An attitude I don't like. I agree. Yeah. The only thing I really know Chuck Norris from is- Walker, Texas Ranger. No, not that shit.

But he turns up in- Which is profoundly bad. I don't know if you've ever watched one. I haven but it's always a lesson but i've seen the clip where hayley joel osment tells everybody he has aids and then k-boy k-boy yeah i've seen that yeah but i i um sidekicks do you remember that yeah it's brandon ralph no it's the guy he was in sea quest oh he died uh he committed suicide yes he's in the second never-ending story but it's he's got asthma he's at school but he loves chuck norris and action movies and he imagines chuck norris to help him when he's like in times of need and it's kind of

like the karate kid it's not very good but anyway uh what about 48 hours i was just thinking about that one actually i've never seen either of the 48 hours i would who see that i think the the because it's uh eddie murphy and either nick i was gonna say the nick nolte or gary bucey no it's nick nolte okay uh and you should quickly mention point break yes we know but i don't have anything to say yeah i've only ever seen point break once and it was at a live event oh I don't a live a live re reimagining yeah a live reading yeah I was the dog

that was thrown at Keanu Reeves I portrayed him um uh what were we talking about 48 hours so it's

it's Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy's a criminal and he's got the he's got the the insider knowledge he's streetwise

and so they have to team up so he's out of jail for 48 hours in order to solve this crime. And I think they're good for the 80s. Yeah. Are they both from the 80s? They'd have to be, right? Almost certainly.

I can just double check that. If you could. Yeah. Well, then we've got to talk Beverly Hills Cop then. Yes. Well, what I was going to say, and speaking of Beverly Hills Cop, speaking of Eddie Murphy in general, if you're going to read...

Another 48 Hours is 1990. Oh, wow. I thought it was on the cast. So he's stood in jail for like eight more years. I guess so. Yeah. The key there, if you're going to do a 48 Hours reboot,

is zombies, certainly, but also who do you, the cast is key. Yes. You're exactly right. Because you need, you need streetwise guy who's not annoying. Yep. And you need by the book, annoyed veteran cop. Yes.

Who isn't killing all the fun and is a good straight man, I think. And so I think they'd give us like, a few years ago, they would have given us Chris Tucker and... Gary Busey. Gary Busey. I don't know. There was that Money Talks one we've talked about with him and Charlie Sheen. That's right.

They could just do that. Yeah. I mean, they won't do that. I don't know who you'd go with now. And it's tough to say because it's also, this is, I feel, the kind of movie where they would get two people who have been... Good in other things?

Yeah, so they're like, they're rising, like they're at the top of their game. Yeah. But also at this point, you are annoyed by them. Yeah, right. Do you see what I mean? Yeah, okay, I get you. Like, what if they got like Seth Rogen and Gary Busey?

Sure. Seth Rogen as the laid-back ex-con, and then you get like... Kamau Nanjiani. Oh, yeah, that would work. Okay. Yeah, but I feel like at that point you you're like okay the shtick by the time you've got by the time you found two people that they think would work for the their shticks worn thin yeah does that make any sense i get you yeah well the funny because the funny

thing about this was and i didn't realize it that this movie came out a year before beverly hills cop huh so this was as eddie murphy was coming up yeah right as an action star in particular because before this he wasn't really known for. No, that's true. I mean, maybe he did The Golden Child, but I don't think so. I think that was after. Yeah.

I only really remember Beverly Hills Cop 3. It's the one I've seen the most for some reason. The one that's set in an amusement park? Yeah. But they're good, aren't they? They're 80s good and 3 is not good. Yeah, no, that I know. Bronson Pinchot is in...

Yes, he is, yeah. One and three. Apparently by the time three rolled around, Eddie Murphy was feeling quite down about himself because he was the biggest star in the world and he wouldn't film his scenes. He wouldn't stand to the opposite scenes. Oh, yeah.

So he'd just get a stand in and whatever. Okay. Because by the 90s, and then he did Metro and Dr. Doolittle and whatever he did on from... But he was like the biggest star in the world. Oh, I remember, yeah, yeah, yeah. You wouldn't remember because you're between 21 and 25.

That's right, vague memories. Yeah, my granddad told me about it. Yeah, right, yeah. What else we got? Red Heat. I haven't seen it. That's 80s good, but not actually good. Okay, fair enough.

Well, most of the ones I've got here, so I've already been said, but I'm happy to have a bloody... Oh, no, the dog's here, Mason, causing a bloody, bloody ruckus. Okay, it's any Arnold movie from Demetrius. Uh-oh. That's true. What about Over the Top? That's an 80s movie.

Is that the... That is the arm wrestling movie, that the that is the arm wrestling movie right that's the arm wrestling movie is Stallone in that yes I haven't seen it it also says

Cobra I don't remember Cobra being good I remember the TV series in the 90s Cobra is another of those movies that they would have put at 9th

that's a 930 movie because that is that is adults only it's big time adults only that's rated AO my friend yeah that's exactly hey dog can you can you smell weird meat in here yeah she definitely can she doesn't know what's going on yeah this might be a good one

to end on it's not the oat that we've obviously missed some but a bunch no we've we've we've mentioned every 80s action okay good martin mcphee says batman 89 and i think that one's interesting because it caps off the 80s and it kicks off something else yeah that's true yeah so i think that's kind of it is 80s good and also actually good no it's not actually good it's not a good film wow yeah i'm sorry i think you were taking your negative connotations associated with batman returns and the fact that you could never beat the batman returns game no i did beat it if anything i have positive things to say about it put And then you put that back on Batman 89, which objectively is a very good film.

What about Red Sonja? Fantasy? Okay. Let's finish with Batman 89. Okay, it's a good one. The best movie of that era. Yeah. But look, if you've got any ideas for ones that's your favourite,

please tweet it. Okay, but we have to pick a top three. What would you say? Well, Mason, I thought because we're going to do a video this Thursday on the YouTube channel, maybe we'll record a little bit after this. Okay. And that can go up there.

Stay tuned, everyone. So, yeah. Hang about for that. So, that'll be up on YouTube channel this Thursday. Very nice. By bonus content. And Patreon maybe a little bit earlier, depending if Matt gets it finished in time. I love it.

Matt. Come on, Matt. Come on, mate. Jesus. No, he's good. He knows what he's doing. All right. That'll do it.

Let's go to the next segment. And you know what that is? It's what we're reading. It's what we're gonna read. I'm doing the thing. What are we reading today? I'm going to watch Cobra Kai. You've convinced me.

Yeah, you should. I'm at least going to give it two episodes. Yeah, it's free. Do you feel like it's a kind of show where if you're not on board within two episodes, you probably shouldn't watch the rest? Or do you think the first two episodes are so good? I think it just washes over you. In a good way.

If you haven't seen any... Everything's so grim. Everything's just teens killing themselves. Yeah, that's right. And people being murdered and raped and getting their heads cut off. There's another season of that show about the girl who kills herself and leaves the mess. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's not a terrible show by any stretch.

Okay, all right. But yeah, there's a lot of that. And it's just, I watch a lot of that. And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that. But it's nice to be like, this is just a fun throwback kind of thing. Because as a counter to that, I'm also watching The Handmaid with that, but it's nice to be like, this is just a fun throwback kind of thing. Because as a counter to that, I'm also watching The Handmaid's Tale, which is so grim.

So it's nice having that balance. Yeah, for sure. If you haven't seen a Karate Kid movie, can you still watch Cobra Kai? Yeah, because it starts at the end of the first one. And Claire's like, none of the women characters in this are any good. They're just there to be asked on dates

and whatever and get cyber bullied. Like, yeah, that's true. That's what it is. Yeah. So bear that in mind. Cool. Yeah. I also have to catch up on,

I'm still not onto Legion yet, season two. Oh yeah, I'm behind on that as well. And a third thing. Batman Ninja? Oh yeah, Batman Ninja's out. That's very good. Okay, right. And also apparently this week on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,

they've brought in one of the dumbest supervillains Marvel has. Oh, yeah, which one is it, buddy? It's Gravitron. Yeah, and it's... Or Graviton. What's his name from Heroes or whatever, isn't it? Yeah, it's Nathan Petrelli from Heroes. Yeah.

His real name, I don't know. He was also from that X-Files knockoff or whatever. Remember that one? Oh, um... The Extraordinary. How do we find aliens? One of them. Roswell.

It's not Roswell. You know, one of them. Yeah, I know. I know all the ones you're talking about. Yeah. Okay. Then should we do Letters? Yeah, let's do Letters.

Or should we do Bretters? The classic one was Letters, oh letters We love you Some letters They're only a take away I know they're here right now. We're going to do Letters. I noticed you winced. I was doing keyboard cat.

Oh, I see. Okay, that makes more sense. Makes a lot more sense now. We should start filming this. People can see all the great visual gags I'm doing. Like this one. Like this one. Oh, that's pretty good.

Thank you. That is good stuff. That is 90% of James' recorded output is his video you miss a lot it's so good people who don't know i just did the okay symbol yeah i mean for people who don't know i mean everybody other than mason i saw it yeah he saw i wasn't even really paying attention dog are you okay you want to go out all right i'll let her out anyway you let her out who let the dog out Mason did Mason did he's doing it now

I can say that joke that we do before the show hey Mason clothes the door it's something that's become a thing whenever we want to

close the door we say clothes I don't know what it stems from I don't think it's funny but we say it we'll never stop doing it okay if you want to reach the show hashtag weekly

planet pod on twitter or weekly planet pod at gmail.com to shoot through an email to the email inbox where mason is looking at it right now oh i'm not though but i will oh i bet i'll read out a tweet then okay ready uh okay so this is from dexter on twitter oh hashtag weekly planet pod does the fact that the doctor doctor's magic can be taught to anybody with discipline and training, does it add or take away from the character? It's a reverse Amazing Spider-Man. So you get that sense that if you go to this monastery,

you can be Benjamin Bratt and fix your back and then go and play basketball, and that's cool. It's obviously a prequel to Catwoman. He also plays basketball yes in a i think it adds to it but i think it's because it's it's not it's not anyone can do it it's people who have the drive and really want it yeah and i'd also i'd put it in the same camp as say like batman begins anybody i guess could go and train with the League of Shadows, but Batman's the best at it. Yeah, right. So would you say it's along those lines? I would. Do you think

he does have a natural affinity for it as well? Because he seems to. Or do you think it's his thirst for knowledge which kind of tips him over? I would much prefer it if it was the latter. Yeah. If they were like, well, you can do it because you're naturally the best at it. I don't, that's a bit Harry Potter, isn't it? There's some other, isn't there some other superheroes that just know a couple of spells? They're like, yeah, strange.

Just taught me this one. I think so. Yeah. I can't think of an example, but I'm, I'm fairly certain that's happened. Like maybe like the punishes bust one out. Yeah.

Right. That seems wrong. It seems very wrong, but that would be great. Yeah. That's what I mean. It's somebody I remember seeing it and thinking, Oh, that's interesting. Cause he would probably, he'd be like, Hey be like hey check this out you can do this if you're ever in a bind just step into the astral plane yeah and i think

you know you could say that you could say that a lot of you know people went to the people went to this monastery for spiritual enlightenment and the and the ancient one or or mordo or something could see whether they were had the potential to hi buddy hey mate how are you um the you could they would see if a person who went to the monastery had the potential to be a you know a sorcerer or just actually become spiritually enlightened. Yeah, right. And maybe that is the magic for them is that they just open a portal to their self-awareness or what have you.

Oh, I'd love that. And maybe there are people out there who are like, I went to this place for enlightenment, but also I can open any bottle cap I want. Not a bottle, obviously. No, not a bottle, certainly. Do not. But just that's their, they have. Not a bovril, obviously. No, not a bovril, certainly. Do not. But just that's their... They have one trick.

Yeah, right, yeah. They can pop open a... Or fix their back. They can pop open a screw top with their eye. Imagine that. You know? Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

But wasn't it in Doctor Strange, the movie, the Ancient One knew he was coming? I think that's in the comics as well. I think so, yeah. But I don't think that means that he was destined necessarily. It's still...

It's his drive that kind of pushed him over the edge wasn't it because he's better than wong all of a sudden yeah for sure right i also like from the avengers the last avengers movie this isn't a spoiler he's still like he's much better but he's still got a lot a long way to go yeah right for sure all right got another tweet here. Do you want to do yours, Mason? He's training for a monastery. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Oh.

Okay. Is that your kid, do you think? It's another very ominous banging on the door. That's wow. He's learned from the best. Your wife. The cop. Wow. So what were you going to say?

This is from Jesse Newell. I'm ready. Hey guys. So last week, my local cinema got in trouble for playing the trailer for Hereditary,

a horror film. Oh, that, what's the name of the Australian one? Muriel's in it. Exactly, yeah. Muriel's in it. Before a screening

of Peter Rabbit. I think that went around the internet. That happened. Question for James. As a father, what are your thoughts on film classification? Should they be harsher or more lenient? Like in Australia,

the Alien and the Avengers are both rated M, but only one of those is suitable for children. The Alien? You know Alien? Like the original Alien. I think if that went to cinemas now, it wouldn't be suitable for children. What do you think it would be? M.A.? It would be an M. I think if that went to cinemas now, it wouldn't be... What do you think it would be, MA?

It would be an MA or an R. An R, right. Just for that one scene alone. Yeah, right. If it was more CGI blood or black blood, maybe they'd get around it. But no, I think that's just a byproduct of being rated early on when the rating systems was kind of in place. But I'm okay with the rating system,

but I think the biggest thing for... If I had to choose lenient or or less lenient i think i think it's okay where it is but i think parents need to cater to what their kid can handle for sure right that's that's where it needs to go you know if if you take your kid to something you need to be aware of what it is either see it before or know exactly what's going to happen in that film so it shouldn't be it shouldn't be just oh look it says it's pg so let's take them you're right i think you're right do you think i think one of the is the new alien no the new aliens films aren't pg are they no they're gonna be the pg-13 but yeah but like there's stuff in like a four-year-old shouldn't see i don't know the force awakens because one

of the main characters gets skewered you know what i mean but maybe some four-year-old shouldn't see, I don't know, The Force Awakens because one of the main characters gets skewered. You know what I mean? But maybe some four-year-olds would be okay with that. You know what I mean? So it's really just down to, I think it's really down to the individual. Yeah. But I haven't really come across that as of yet because my kid's like below the age of having to make that decision.

But yeah. But I think he knows. Does he know who the Avengers are? Not really. All the stuff that he does know. Oh, he knows he he know who the Avengers are not really all the stuff that he does know oh no he does he knows like

Captain America and that but all the stuff is from stuff people give him yeah he knows about Batman because people

give him Batman stuff Batman stuff but yeah and I furiously throw it in the bin that's the spirit no not true this is from Alex

yeah uh Bovril etiquette okay uh okay here's what you want to do don't drink it.

Ah, where were you, Alex? Yeah, thanks, mate. Nine and a half ago, whenever we started this. Good slice of toast, some butter, and lather it up with a good serving of bovril. That seems right. Yeah, right? Then you go to town on that bad boy. That's what it says here.

Or decide it's disgusting. I think that's probably what's going to happen to me. No, I think I could do it. All right. Do you want me to leave you some on a serviette? No, I can't eat it. Bring it back in six weeks. eat it bring it back in six weeks i'll bring it back i can eat normal food again uh what do we got here okay so i'm reluctant to open this up but i think it might be an interesting idea for an episode but there needs to be stipulations because we get a lot of

this stuff like did i run this by you and i'll find out it's from grayson street uh-huh big supporter of the show which we appreciate uh on on Twitter, hashtag weeklyplanetpod. I'd love to hear a fan theory themed episode sometime. Tell Mason to read my Martian theory on air or else. I don't know what that is, but I thought a good way to do this might be. We get a lot of fan theories. We get a lot of them emailed.

That's true. As you know, and some of them can be quite lengthy. Some of them aren't. So maybe next week, if nothing else comes out. I don't think there's any. Because I thought it was Deadpool this week, but it's not.

But it's not. It's the following week. We could do a fan theories episode. People either send an email to weeklyplanetpod at gmail.com. One sentence fan theory or a tweet. Yes. Not a screenshot of a notepad. Yes.

One tweet. Yep. And if you can keep it below 240 characters, you can make it 140 even better. But even just like Batman's in the James Bond universe or whatever. Not that, but something. What if he was though? But okay, that's not a good example

because you need to also work in how it makes sense. Yeah, right. Or how it could make sense. All right. I guess. Or how it could make sense. All right. So we can think of that. I love fan theories, as you know. So it's fan theories, yeah. All right, let's do a fan theory episode.

And we'll judge them as whatever. We'll judge them. We'll be prepared for judgment. Just judge them. We'll just bloody judge them. Yeah. But I think that would be a cool thing to do. I'd like that.

Yeah, let's do it. So we'll do that next week. Is that the show? I think so. Yeah. All right. What'd like that. Yeah, let's do it. So we'll do that next week. Is that the show? I think so. Yeah. All right. What do you got? Oh, let's see.
