Starting point is 00:00:00 FX's The Veil explores the surprising and fraught relationship between two women who play a deadly game of truth and lies on the road from Istanbul to Paris and London. One woman has a secret, the other a mission to reveal it before thousands of lives are lost. FX's The Veil, starring Elizabeth Moss, is now streaming on Disney+. This episode is brought to you by Casper Mattresses. Oh, we're in the ad right now. We're in the ad. You really sprung that on me. Like a mattress.
Starting point is 00:00:31 Like a mattress, yeah. This podcast is part of the Planet Broadcasting Network. Visit planetbroadcasting.com for more podcasts from our great mates. Red hot comic book movie news. Shooting up your balls. 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.
Starting point is 00:00:58 You really speed through that intro nowadays. People, you know, you've got to get people engaged. You've got that small window at the start. You've got to grab them, bring them in. you i get you give it a bit of we're talking about movies and tvs and i feel like maybe are we pivoting away from those things are we rebranding because you're like don't don't focus on don't focus on movies and tv shows and comic books we're gonna do what are we gonna do politics whatever's on our mind oh okay and you know what's on my mind does this. Oh, okay. And you know what's on my mind? Does this look infected?
Starting point is 00:01:26 Yes. Okay. No time for that now. We've got to talk about movies and TV shows. Big week for Oscar nominations because there were Oscar nominations. All of them were out. It's the biggest and only week for Oscar nominations, I feel. There was certainly some surprises and some snubs, probably. I didn't read the full list because it's just a list of things.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Same, yeah. Awards are meaningless, we've talked about it, except for our award, which we won, which is the most meaningful thing that's ever happened. of things same yeah i don't awards are meaningless we've talked about except for our war which we won which is the most meaningful thing that's the only meaningful award yeah but i don't know where it is it's somewhere in a box yeah i think it's in that car nice but you also when you can't read it properly because it's on glass so you put it up and it's like do you just have a block of glass sitting on your table yeah i do it's the first block of glass i earned you know when somebody puts the first dollar they earn up in a in a frame it's first block of glass we got that's what got paid
Starting point is 00:02:09 for the show i don't remember the first money that i don't know who gave me the first thing that i earned do you know i think it just probably just went into my bank account when i was like working at kmart when i was 14 for the summer until they fired me for being too good. I feel like that last part isn't true. Well, they hire summer casuals, and I guess I wasn't... You just never got called up again, right? Never got called up again, yeah. Also, I think I went away for like a month in the middle of it. It's not my fault.
Starting point is 00:02:35 But you framed that dollar. I certainly did. I like to think, because in Australia we have dollar coins. Yeah. You just put a dollar coin in a frame and it rattles around. Late at night, the wind tips it and you hear... But it reminds me of success. Anyway, the reason I bring this up,
Starting point is 00:02:51 because Black Panther was nominated for Best Picture. That's right. Now we've got 10 awards. Wait, 10 nominations. The first time a comic book movie has been nominated for Best Picture, I believe. Maybe The Dark Knight was. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:04 The Dark Knight, I think, was. Anyway, it's a big deal. And people are saying, you know, does it deserve it or whatever? There's a number of movies on there that don't deserve to be on there. And it is absolutely subjective. There's a number of movies
Starting point is 00:03:16 that have won the award in the past that are just bad. You mentioned Crash. I did mention Crash. Yeah. Some people like that movie and that's fine. I don't think it's a good movie. I haven't seen it.
Starting point is 00:03:24 But some people were like, this is the best movie this year's produced. And I disagree. I think most people didn't see it, but they went, well, it's tackling racism, isn't it? Yeah. Doesn't it tackle it really badly? Yeah. Yeah. But this Black Panther tackles racism in a much better way in the sense that Andy Serkis
Starting point is 00:03:39 has claw gets tackled. Yeah, man. The Blind Side. Was that nominated? That was nominated. That tackles racism and is not good apparently yeah anyway uh look i don't think it's the best comic book movie of last year no but whatever there's some good stuff in there but again also the oscars are often prone
Starting point is 00:03:57 to giving people an award or companies an award for the movie they didn't they don't really deserve it for because their track record is great you know um the the third lord of the rings one he's not the best one i don't think so yeah but the first one should have won yeah yeah and you know dicaprio won for sleeping in a bear or whatever yeah the revenant when a lot of people were like this isn't his best work yeah denzel washington won for there was like a makeup one for something else or something. Yeah, for sure. Anyway, I enjoy Black Panther a lot. And again, there's no, I feel like there's no,
Starting point is 00:04:34 I say this now, there's no hard and fast rules for being nominated for or winning an Oscar. They're probably very clearly outlined on their website or in their charter. But movies have won for being huge blockbusters. Movies have won for being... Yeah, like Titanic won. Titanic won. I mean, movies have won for being huge blockbusters. Movies have won for being... Yeah, like Titanic won. Titanic won.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I mean, movies have won for being huge. Movies have won for being small and thematically... Yeah, a weird clown movie or something. Weird clown movie, exactly. That's right. Weird foreign clown movie. So you can win for being a huge... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:58 I mean, it looks incredible and it's fun and... You know, I think it should reflect all film. It shouldn't just be weird arthouse movies. Like The Artist, which I haven't seen, but it's in and... You know, I think it should reflect all film. It shouldn't just be weird arthouse movies. Like The Artist, which I haven't seen, but like it's in black and white. Nobody's talking. Okay. That should be not like, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:12 that's fair enough that that's nominated probably. I haven't seen it. But, you know, why can't things on the other end of that spectrum? You know, people put actual effort into it. You know what I mean? Did Jaws win? Probably not. Okay, then never mind.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Did Jaws win? I'll find out. Have a look. Jaws, Academy of Jaws. Thank you. I wrote James when I went to type Jaws win? Probably not. Okay, then never mind. Did Jaws win? I'll find out. Have a look. Jaws, Academy of Jaws. Thank you. I wrote James when I went to type Jaws. Did you reflexively, every time you open your computer,
Starting point is 00:05:33 you're like, did James win Oscar? It was nominee for Best Picture and won Best Film Editing, Sound Mixing and Original Score. There you go. Probably lost to something crap. Let me find out. Okay. See, is the that was the turning point right oh one for the cuckoo's nest that's fair yeah okay yeah yeah but i mean that that was the turning
Starting point is 00:05:55 point for it's a it's a schlocky yeah action monster movie that you know became mainstream yeah exactly because there were 20 years or more than that of monster movies leading up to Jaws. Yeah, right. Jaws just took it more seriously, I guess, somewhat. Yeah. I don't know. Anyway, Andy Serkis has got a big gun in his arm.
Starting point is 00:06:16 He'll win an Oscar, I reckon, eventually. See, that's an example. He hasn't won it for Planet of the Apes or Lord of the Rings or anything like that. They'll just give him a lifetime. They'll give him an award for a single movie that is a lifetime achievement award. Exactly. Or they'll name an award after him, maybe.
Starting point is 00:06:31 Yes. After he dies. They should have given him one for Black Panther for his wibbly, rubbery arm. I agree. With a gun in it. I agree. Best wibbly, wobbly arm with a gun in it. Best award for keeping it together even though you've had a wibbly wobbly arm attached to your real arm.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Because I'd be in that situation. I'd just be like, they'd be like, action. I'd be like, what happened to my arm? It's got a wibbly wobbly. Are you going to watch these? The Oscars? No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:57 We'll talk about them afterwards. The upsets. The highs and lows. They should cancel it and just release the series of tweets. Yeah. And also, comic book movies often get snubbed, but so do a lot of horror movies. Into the Spider-Verse, I think, should have been nominated for Best Picture. There's a bunch of stuff that doesn't get in.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Is it nominated for Best Animation? I think it is. If that doesn't win, I mean, it probably won't because they'll give it to whatever Pixar thing happened last year. But anyway. Mason, we've got some release date news. I'm ready. Three films news three three films okay you gotta decide which one is the best already all right okay so so what you're saying here is i have to choose now yep and regardless of how it turns out later in the year yes i have to say i have to i have to stick to my guns during that episode all right ready okay okay uh these first two are sony but there's one in the middle, which is going to throw things.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Which is good. Maybe. Okay. Which is good. First up is Ghostbusters 3. All right. Whatever that's called. Yep.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Ghostbusters, Small Town, Stranger Things. Yep. Whatever it's going to be. July 10, 2020. Okay, right. Then July 31st, we've got Morbius with Jared Leto. Oh, and then now Matt Smith, if I recall. Yeah, he's going to be something else in that.
Starting point is 00:08:05 And then July 17th in the middle, not from Sony, is Christopher Nolan's next film called We Don't Know About Yet to Be Determined. TBD. Well, see, here's the thing. I mean, I'm not... I don't feel like it's dangerous territory to say
Starting point is 00:08:19 that whatever he's doing is probably the best of those. I'm sorry, everybody as well. We've got the windows open because it's 1,000 degrees and somebody's doing a gardening. They're doing donuts on a motorcycle. Yes. I might be able to take out some of that sound, but who knows?
Starting point is 00:08:34 He's done it. He's perfect. Say what they are again? Sorry, okay. Okay, Black Panther. No, that's different. Ghostbusters, the third one. Okay, right.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Morbius, the second in the Sony spin-off, Spider-Man, Spider-Verse. Okay. And whatever Christopher Nolan's doing. Okay, Christopher Nolan's is going to be the best one, regardless of its quality. When we do the episode and review it, I'm going to say it's good. What do you think about...
Starting point is 00:08:55 That is my bold claim to you all. Okay, what about between Morbius and Ghostbusters 3? Who's doing Morbius again? I'll find out. I'll find the director. Because it's... What's his name's doing? It cannot possibly be Morbius again? I'll find out. I'll find the director. Because what's his name's doing? It cannot possibly be Morbius, surely. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Daniel Espinosa, who has done some films. He's done Safe House. He did the movie Life, which was in space. And people were like, is this a Venom sequel? That's right. Okay. He did the movie Easy Money in 2010. Never heard of it.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Some of these are okay. He did Child 44. Never heard of it. Me neither. Anyway, so it's going to be, so you say Morbius. It's going to be perfectly serviceable. Yes. So Morbius, the next thing, and then the other one
Starting point is 00:09:37 is What You're Understanding By. Correct, yes. All right, I hope you don't deviate, Mason. I will not. Good. I swear to you all. Wow. That's right. That's right.
Starting point is 00:09:45 That's right. All review integrity has gone out the window this episode. You've forced my hand. Okay, Mason, are you excited for Resident Evil in general? No. What are your thoughts on Resident Evil? The movie series or the game franchise? Just all of it.
Starting point is 00:09:58 They do an animated movie every now and then. They're like, what's happening in Raccoon City? Chris Redfield's sister's been murdered, or has she, or something. I've never seen any of them. Now she's investigating the mystery. Was she murdered in the last one? Doesn't matter. Are these in the same continuity?
Starting point is 00:10:12 Who cares? I think the animated movies are set within the game continuity, but the movies are set within a universe where the apocalypse keeps happening. But is it a frozen one? Is it a sand one? Is it an everybody's dead one? Is it a Mad Max one? Sometimes the entire world is destroyed a frozen one is it a sand one yeah is it a everybody's dead one is it a Mad Max one
Starting point is 00:10:26 sometimes the entire world is destroyed except for one underground bunker and then the next one everything's fine again yeah more or less more or less
Starting point is 00:10:33 and everybody is a clone of each other look well I won't tell you my thoughts on Resident Evil but I think the the conversation we just had probably illustrates
Starting point is 00:10:41 fairly effectively what I think of it what about the games I think the movies are bad do you ever play play any games yeah i played a couple playstation one man from way back yeah i think i played one or two yep yeah you're not gonna get the new one too maybe i'll get sitting right there mason i'm waiting to play i was away for the weekend so i'm gonna look at it don't look at it i don't like people touching things before i've had a chance to touch the mason have you not opened the case yet?
Starting point is 00:11:05 No, the game's not. I installed it already because you've got to install stuff. Do you think there'll be a booklet in there? There never is, Mason. They don't do that anymore. Sometimes they're up. It looks good. Sometimes they'll have a map in there and I'm like, I'm never going to look at this. Does this one have Wesker in it?
Starting point is 00:11:21 I think so. I think he's in that one. I don't know. I didn't play two when it came out. Anyway, Mason. No, he's a good guy initially. Oh, yeah, that's right. So he is in it. I think so. I think he's in that one. I don't know. I didn't play two when it came out. Anyway, Mason. Oh, he's a good guy initially. Oh, yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:11:29 Yeah, so he is in this. Because he's bad in four. The plan is to expand upon the Resident Evil cinematic universe with new stories set in the already established world.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Wait, is this the movies? Through Netflix. Oh, all right. Yeah. Supposedly, the basic premise will remain the same, added emphasis on exploring Umbrella Corporation
Starting point is 00:11:44 and the New World Order caused by the outbreak of the T-Virus. The series will also incorporate the film's signature action style and Easter eggs and such. So wait, is it set in the movie, contrary? Yes. It is. I don't think they should. I think they should.
Starting point is 00:11:56 No. I mean, didn't they kill everybody in that? Yes. Didn't everybody clone in a bunker and then they all shot themselves? They've done every possible stupid plot twist in all those movies. Which is the one that ends with the giant bat? Was that the last one? The giant bat was really impressive.
Starting point is 00:12:11 This is how they get you. We talk about it, though. That's right. There's the one impressive thing. Yeah. Yeah. And then I think we missed... Did we miss one?
Starting point is 00:12:19 I don't know. I think my favourite finale is the one where they all fight Wesker and he gets stabbed repeatedly through the head. They kick glass into him and stuff. Yeah, and he's still alive. No, my favourite one's the desert one, all fight Wesker and he gets stabbed repeatedly through the head. They kick glass into him and stuff. Yeah, and he's still alive. No, my favourite one's the desert one, where they're in the desert. Yeah, okay. And there's all the crows and they're all the zombie crows.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Okay, yeah. And they open a shipping container in Vegas and it's filled with zombies. It's a fairly even race, though, isn't it? That might be the same movie, though. We might be talking about the same movie. See, that's the thing. This universe is a mess. I don't understand why they wouldn't start fresh.
Starting point is 00:12:47 I agree. Because who's this for? Is this for hardcore Resident Evil fans? How many are there? Because I think hardcore Resident Evil fans probably... Don't like the movies? ...wouldn't like the movies as much as they like the games. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:12:57 I assume. Anyway, I don't know. I'm just excited for more Resident Evil. I mean, playing that game and... Then nothing else. And then playing 4 again. Because I like 4 a lot. It's a good game.
Starting point is 00:13:07 You can throw eggs. Do you know that? At who? Just whoever. You can collect eggs and throw them. Oh, my dog's coughing. No, she's doing great. I mean, she did spend the last five minutes just licking the floor.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Oh, that's bad. Yeah. Yeah, she's probably going to vomit. Okay, great. Yeah, she's doing it now. Yeah, okay. Good stuff. Okay, then. Yeah, she's doing it now. Yeah, okay. Good stuff. Okay, then.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Mason, trailers ahoy. Is that the name of our new segment? Mason, trailers ahoy. Okay, pretty good. If somebody could knock up a graphic that we can add to the MP4 version of this, or a theme song possibly, that would be great. Do we get a foghorn in there? Yeah, I think so. And a lighthouse.
Starting point is 00:13:45 And the theme to, what is it? Captain Pugwash. Captain Pugwash. Captain Pugwash. We're thinking of the same nautical adventures. Yes. First one is The Boys coming to Hulu. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Based on the comic. Wait, you mean Amazon video? Maybe. I just wrote Hulu. I don't actually know. Is it Amazon? It's Amazon video. I've changed my mind.
Starting point is 00:14:01 Whatever the thing you said is. Great. It's got Carl Urban. It's got Simon Pegg in it, but not in the trailer because his son is, but he's playing the father of that character. That looks like him. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Webby. Yep. Wibbly. What's his name? The kid? The guy in it? Yeah. Webby Wibbly.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Webby Wibbly. Yeah. Yeah. So it's basically superheroes are celebrities and horrible. And then there's a group of people who- To be clear, they're horrible people and they're horrible at their job yes they're just but they so they need handlers to sort of keep them in line and beat them up basically every now and then yeah and it's a great comic book series and what did you think of the trailer looks good it intrigues and it's
Starting point is 00:14:38 and excites yeah um what do you think of the superhero outfits do you know what they are very i don't know if they've tweaked them since maybe Justice League has come out or they've re I mean Justice League came out a while ago I remember I don't know if they've tweaked them it feels fresh though it feels timeless does it no it doesn't
Starting point is 00:14:56 no it doesn't you're a liar what I'm saying is they look very Justice League they look very Snyderverse good I guess that's it is that good because even in's because they're not supposed to be... Because even in the comics they're dumb costumes. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:15:09 They're supposed to be over the top and garish and ridiculous. And then it's just people in leather coats kicking them in the head. Yeah. So I think, yeah, I mean, I think that's the best part of the Snyderverse is the costumes. You cannot deny it. Is it? Yeah. I'm just going to let the dog out. Keep talking, Mason. Name a bad costume from the Snyderverse.
Starting point is 00:15:25 The Batman one with the goggles. Oh, yeah, that's a bad one. Yeah. Okay. But you can't name a second one, surely. The original Superman is still a costume. That's all right. The Aquaman crab suit.
Starting point is 00:15:38 I don't mind the crab suit. I don't mind the crab suit. Doomsday. Is that a costume? Yes. Let's say it's a costume and it's bad. You've got me. Steppenwolf. He's wearing a costume. He's wearing a hat. Doomsday. Is that a costume? Yes. Let's say it's a costume and it's bad. You've got me. Steppenwolf.
Starting point is 00:15:45 He's wearing a costume. He's wearing a hat. That's true. And also a belt buckle with a skull with that same hat on it. Yeah, that's true. Did he kill his kid? I don't know. Have you killed his little son?
Starting point is 00:15:55 He may have. He issued him a little hat. Yeah. And then he was not up to Steppenwolf's quality standards. So he killed him and wore him as a belt buckle. Imagine doing that design and being like, yeah, that's the one. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:08 Look, we should mention again, we did do a Justice League commentary just recently. And I tried to get into it. I tried to be like, this is a fun time. This is going to be fun and schlocky. And we're going to have a real fun time. And it was a real chore. That's what I had with it.
Starting point is 00:16:21 But if you want to listen to it, it's up there at the band camp. And the Patreon. Yeah, anyway, The Boys looks great. I'm loving these different type of superhero shows we're getting. It's, you know, they're not mainstream, so you can kind of do a bit more kind of loosey-goosey stuff. And it's kind of, you know, we've reached the point where we've seen every...
Starting point is 00:16:41 Here's all the superheroes up front. Now we're pulling it back a little and it's like we're doing people behind the scenes of the superhero team we're doing former superheroes we're doing other stuff other things there's a fantastic
Starting point is 00:16:56 I guess it's called a movie yes there is there's three of them there's four because there's the one where they didn't release but they probably shouldn't release most of those though but there's the one where they didn't release. But they probably shouldn't have released most of those, though. But there's a scene where you see the superheroes try to save a plane falling out of the sky and how they botch it.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Yeah, right. And it's hilarious. Right. Because they go in and they're just... Because they're not engineers. They don't know how a plane works. Yeah, for sure. You can't just stop a plane mid-air.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, it's really good. The other one, though, is Umbrella Academy, which is Netflix mid of next month. I actually just started reading this. I might talk about it more in What We're Eating. But I'm really enjoying it. It's a good series.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Have you read it? Yes, I have. So it's 47 or something kids are born around the world, seemingly to random women who weren't pregnant prior to giving birth. A lot of them go missing, but seven of them get adopted by this eccentric billionaire millionaire man. Who decides to create his own superhero team. Like an X-Men school.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Yeah, like an X-Men. The Umbrella Academy. Anyway, they hate him. They hate him and they all come back together years later after he's dead. For crime solving and intrigue. They hate him. Yeah. And they all come back together years later. Yeah. After he's dead. For crime solving. Yeah. And intrigue. Intrigue.
Starting point is 00:18:08 This one I'm actually looking for. I was sort of looking forward to it, but reading the comic, I'm like, wow, this could be really great. So both of these, fun. Yeah. And we got, who do we have? We got Ellen Page in it. That dude from Lookout London's on Wheels, Get Out of the Way.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Mm-hmm. Yep. Are they doing the guy who's got a human head, but he's on a gorilla's body? Was he in the trailer? There was a monkey man. There was a monkey man in it. There's a monkey man, yeah. But he's literally a monkey man.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Yes. Did you see the gorilla-headed? Was there that guy in it? No. Okay. But there was a monkey-headed man. Yes. Isn't he just a monkey?
Starting point is 00:18:42 Yeah, he's just a monkey. Yeah. Anyway, I love also that they're like, here's this trailer, two weeks. Same, exactly. You see it in two weeks. You don't have to wait six months. Pleasant surprise, yeah. Yeah, so that's great.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Here's other things that are happening. This won't be two weeks. This will be more time if you can handle it, Mason. You know that there's currently a Fast and Furious spinoff in the works. Yes. Dwayne the Rock Johnson versus Statham the Rock Statham. That's right. Fast and Furious spinoff in the works. Yes. Dwayne The Rock Johnson versus Statham The Rock Statham. That's right. Fast and Furious agent Cody Banks.
Starting point is 00:19:08 That's the first thing I thought of, but it's not that. What are their names again? Hobbs and Shaw. Hobbs and Shaw. Two of the biggest heads in Hollywood clashing together. Yeah. Imagine if they had hair. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Imagine Jason Statham with a big shaggy dude. Like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo? Yes. I would love that. Have you seen those memes recently? Of Jason Statham with hair? No, there's been a recent uptick in Shaggy from scooby-doo yes i would love that you've seen those memes recently of jason statham with no there's there's some shag there's been a recent uptick in shaggy memes i have seen some of those okay yeah it's going on there where shaggy is some sort of shaggy on the set of of
Starting point is 00:19:35 the of the scooby-doo movies is some sort of weird cult god figure there's just it's i don't know somebody somebody uh re-subtitled a bunch of yeah behind the scenes featurettes and it's it's i don't know that some somebody somebody re uh re-subtitled a bunch of yeah behind the scenes featurettes and it's it's very bizarre yeah i got to matthew lillard the the who played shaggy who played shaggy on twitter and he's like this is wrong i don't know if he's being serious or what but isn't some one of those or some of them good like the second one's good or something i kind of recall one of them being good but I couldn't tell you which one it is. Anyway, good stuff. Isn't one of them, there's a tiny dog in Rowan Atkinson.
Starting point is 00:20:10 We've talked about this at one point. They're like, that's Rowan Atkinson. Oh no, there's a tiny dog in him. Well, it might be the second one. Because if I believe the second one, Scrappy Doo's in it. Great. Anyway, speaking of Fast and Furious spin-offs, which we were many minutes ago. There's going to be an all-female-led movie.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Oh, I think I saw it. Was it Vin Diesel or The Rock posted it? It was like, what up, peeps? Welcome to the FF family. That's right. Bitches. Yeah. Bad start for an all-female.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Family first, Corona second, or whatever. Didn't they switch to Coca-Cola in the last one? No, or Heineken or something. Yeah, right. Those weird silver bottles, which I don't like. No, no,
Starting point is 00:20:48 I think it was a Heineken, but in the silver, you can't see. Oh, I can't remember. I like to know how much beer I'm drinking. I don't want to, I don't want to be a mystery Mason.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Yeah. You know, I understand. I'm not that good with weight. I don't know how much beer is left is what I'm saying. Anyway, it's going to be the writers. We've got a Nicole Perlman,
Starting point is 00:21:03 who's done a Captain Marvel, Black Widow. I forgot to put this in the news,man, who's done Captain Marvel Black Widow. I forgot to put this in the news, but remind me to come back to Black Widow. Lindsay Beer, Silver Sable, Geneva Robertson-Dwarrett. Wait, did you say there's a writer called Silver Sable? No, Lindsay Beer wrote Silver Sable. Oh, I see, right. She did Captain Marvel and Silver Sable,
Starting point is 00:21:22 and the film will be directed by David Leitch, who did John Wick and Deadpool 2. I've got a list of names here of some players from The Fast and Furious that may return. Okay. Michelle Rodriguez. Yes. Some or all of these people may be dead in the movies. Yeah, but that didn't stop Michelle Rodriguez coming back.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Gal Gadot. Oh, yeah. Who wasn't a huge player when she left, but since then you'd bring her back and it would be a big deal. Didn't she die? Yeah, she fell out of a plane. That's what I thought. But that's fine. You can fall out of a plane.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Yeah. You can't. No, I could do it. I could do it. You could do it, but I don't think you'd come back for a fantastic Beast spinoff. Thank you. I mean, who knows when this is set also. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:22:01 They could set it in the... Before Tokyo Dr drift or whatever they're all set before tokyo drift no i think they're past tokyo okay right because han's dead yes yeah oh that's true yeah uh elsa pataki who's things all things in the universe are set before tokyo drift correct everything in the entire universe not the fast and the furious universe the entire universe yeah elsa pataki who i think that's how you say it she's from the one where they drag her safe i think she had the baby with vin diesel yep oh yeah yeah she died also i think she was shot in the head uh charlie's theron she was bad but so was statham then he saved her baby on a plane or whatever yeah uh helen miriam as well yeah this is just some of the names
Starting point is 00:22:39 that have been around so yeah here's here's some other names that could also be in this any actor they pay enough money to yes so there's the what's her name from game of thrones whose that have been around. So yeah. Here's some other names that could also be in this. Any actor they pay enough money to. Yes. So there's the, what's her name from Game of Thrones? Whose name I can't remember. Who's always,
Starting point is 00:22:55 Ludacris is always trying to have sex with her or whatever's going on in those movies. Oh yeah, that's right. She could be in it. Yeah. Tyrese Gibson also. He's always like, I'm cool. I'm the cool guy.
Starting point is 00:23:02 The worst character in those movies. Oh, unpleasant. That's the audience. Sorry. He is all of us. i'm cool anyway yeah again probably at least half of those people are dead in the movies uh but that's fine anyway more yeah do more fast and furious because they've built this universe somehow and people love it somehow and they're pretty fun so why not do you think there's a tipping point though definitely do you think there's a point for everything yeah i think it'll be flying cars i think they did
Starting point is 00:23:27 flying cars no they did floating they did cars falling out of a plane and they did cars jumping from skyscraper to skyscraper that's true but i think they're gonna put a jet engine on a car at some point and we're gonna go oh really that's really they've raced a submarine or something already yeah yeah i think you can't fly. I don't think... Yeah, you're right. Because... Are you saying I can't fly? Yes, Mason.
Starting point is 00:23:48 Before you were saying I couldn't fall out of a plane. Now you're saying I can't fly. You're a real nicer, aren't you? But yeah, I think Fast and Furious is not interesting when you're in the sky. I feel like it'd be like that scene in the Meg where they just did submarines just zipping about underwater. Exactly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Okay. What else we got here? Exactly, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Okay, what else we got here? Although planes can be fast. Yep. And who's to say they can't also be furious? But I just don't think there's something about being on the ground and a building might fall on you as opposed to being in the sky. What building's going to fall on you? How about this?
Starting point is 00:24:19 Fast and the Furious. Yep. Tokyo Cumulonimbus. Like the cloud? Like the cloud. Great. Yep. Is Cumulonimbus. Like the cloud? Like the cloud. Great. Yep. Is it special, this cloud?
Starting point is 00:24:28 Is it a cloud of NOS? It's a cloud of NOS. You drive through it. You drive through it. And it can fly, as if by magic, yes. There's a new movie coming to Netflix. It's called Reborn. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:41 It's called Reborn. I wrote next flid here. Even though no one's going to ever see this document and I'll never look at it again you have to change it exactly I feel like to
Starting point is 00:24:48 you know I've got my weird little book yeah my weird little book here's what I've done my entire life is I've like been very careful with the when I write something down
Starting point is 00:24:56 I'm very careful with the spacing just in case I die and somebody opens up my little notebook or my school book or whatever and it's like look at this slide
Starting point is 00:25:03 look at this exactly I feel your pain no my writing's terrible and i'm a teacher i taught writing that's true you know what though because they make you and this is irrelevant but they make you do like we're having a chat having a chat it's podcasting yeah this is it we're sorry it's what this is but like you're supposed to teach on a real talk show they'd cut this out they would you know you're supposed to teach cursive writing joined up writing yes talk show, they'd cut this out. They would. You're supposed to teach cursive writing. Joined up writing, yes.
Starting point is 00:25:26 Joined up writing. But by the time I got to year six and they're like, you should emphasize this. And I was like, I'm not wasting time teaching fucking handwriting. There's a thousand other things I want to go to. So I just go, look, if I can- We're rogue. Yeah. If I can read your writing, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:25:40 If it's illegible, then that's a problem. If I can read it, i don't care if it's joined i don't write in joined writing no i write in all caps now i write in unjoined all caps with a crayon and i hold it hold it like i'm holding a dagger yes i just threw the fist in your wrong hand the wrong hand is pointing down yes yeah. Yeah. Backwards ease. Backwards ease. Backwards arse. Yeah. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:26:07 Netflix reborn. Backwards ends. Backwards ends. It's directed by Chris McKay who did the Lego Batman movie. It's based on the comic by Mark Millar because Netflix
Starting point is 00:26:15 owned Miller World now. Yeah. It's about, I did not like this comic. It's about an old woman who dies and then she wakes up in a fantasy world
Starting point is 00:26:23 which is the afterlife. I didn't read that one. Why didn't you like it it was just everything in the afterworld it's like there's technology and magic and you're the chosen one
Starting point is 00:26:31 watch out for the dragon and your dogs so no rules yeah kind of there's probably rules it was like visually it was quite interesting and there's some
Starting point is 00:26:38 I just thought it was a bit it was too much of everything right to be fair I didn't hate it but you know and you kind of but there's little things that were interesting where, because it's the afterlife and everybody who has ever been
Starting point is 00:26:49 alive is there. Oh, she's looking for a husband. Yeah. Is that it? Like the chances of you running into that person are very slim. Right. Like, so, so some people get, you know, get, most people just get remarried because, you know, you're in a, but you also can die again in the afterlife.
Starting point is 00:27:04 It's, I don't know. I can't really it. But you also can die again in the afterlife. I don't know. I can't really remember. I think it could be interesting. Okay. Or bad. I mean, that is... How do you feel like... Because it's a world with everything.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Yeah. That's difficult to do on a small budget. Yes. So is it small budget? Is it? Are they pulling out all the stops? I don't know. I read a comic book a while back that has a... Wow, Mason i've got something to say about that come on man ether did you ever
Starting point is 00:27:29 read ether no which one's that it's about a guy and he's he's um he finds a doorway i think we might have talked about it what we read him but he finds a doorway into a parallel universe and it's kind of a fantasy universe but then his real life sort of he stops paying attention to his real life so he's homeless in real life and kind of he's lost his family and what have you keep talking dogs at the door but then in his but then he goes over to the fantasy world and he's this sort of legendary adventurer is he stuck in the fantasy no he can go back and forth what does it mean to stay there that's a good question is it there's a question perhaps it unfolds In the story Is it posited In the book
Starting point is 00:28:06 Yes Is it completed Is the run over I don't know I don't think I read the whole thing Fantastic Yes Alright Mason
Starting point is 00:28:12 Oh Black Widow quickly Yes Apparently it's starting production Maybe next month And they're talking about an R rating That's the rumour I'll believe it when I see it Did you say it's going to production next month
Starting point is 00:28:21 Yeah or they'll start being like Let's do some storyboards Or whatever How would production work? Yeah, we don't know. I don't know. I know teaching, Mason, and I know the world. We know that there's a whiteboard, and people put ideas on the whiteboard.
Starting point is 00:28:32 And then everyone goes... Perfect. Just whatever. It's fine. That dark side or Steppenwolf is fine. Yeah, exactly right. Okay. Black Widow, can she open a muffin shop?
Starting point is 00:28:41 Could she? Yeah, she could. I could too. Don't tell me what I can't do. I don't think you could. I think you'd be more likely to fall out of a plane than open a muffin shop. Could she? Yeah, she could. I could too. Don't tell me what I can't do. I don't think you could. I think you'd be more likely to fall out of a plane than open a muffin shop.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Yeah, that's probably true. Because you can kind of fall out of a plane by accident. But I feel like you'd have to go well out of your way to open a muffin shop. I couldn't accidentally open a muffin shop.
Starting point is 00:28:58 No, I'm saying I could open a muffin shop, but I probably wouldn't open a muffin shop. Yes, that's what I'm saying too. Because it involves effort. Yes. So would you rather fall out of a plane or open a muffin shop? The muffin shop. i don't know if you would because you have to spend that one's really loud he's got a new and louder piece of equipment he's firing he saw
Starting point is 00:29:11 we were recording something and he's like something he's got a chainsaw time to break out a louder piece of equipment great we'll see how that goes if not we'll have to close the window yeah i'm gonna have to close the window okay god damn it i don't know that guy's name i don't know him well enough to be like hey okay we're back we've closed some windows close some windows we're not happy this is why we don't record in the middle of the day we're gonna be also it's the peak heat of the day what's he doing out there stay in the shade you gotta do it early morning or late afternoon man yeah yeah do you think how well would i have to know a person to be able to go over and say listen we're podcasting can you not do you think there's i couldn't do that ever right in the in those exact words yeah i think
Starting point is 00:29:48 there's i think there's no level of familiarity where you could say we're doing a podcast so if you wouldn't mind because you'd be like podcast those things that regularly sound like they're being recorded in a bathtub i don't think anything i could do could affect that negatively i think if you made something up i think you're like my baby's asleep or whatever. Or if you keep doing this, I'll stab you. Yeah, that could work too. That would be a lie, right? I'm making it up that I'd stab him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:14 He'd think that before I stab him. Yeah, that's right. I'd stab him real good. As women, our life stages come with unique risk factors, like high blood pressure developed during pregnancy, which can put us two times more at risk of heart disease or stroke.

Oh, and it's good in the, you know, if you're in the cooler parts of the world, there's some frozen snaps happening all over. It's negative 1,000 degrees. We didn't have as much passion there

Starting point is 00:33:06 And the last. Okay. Mason, are you excited for 2019 or do you wish it was 2020 yet? Look, in some ways, why can't 2019 be over? I agree. Am I right? Yeah. But at the same time, probably some good movies coming out soon.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Probably some good movies. That's what we're going to do. We're a bit late to this, but we've all had things on, haven't we? We've all had stuff on. Yeah. And also, we're going to do. We're a bit late to this, but we've all had things on, haven't we? We've all had stuff on. Yeah. And also, we're going to have the hottest takes. I mean, sure, you might listen to another podcast where they've had some hot takes about the upcoming movies of 2019 already.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Yeah. Or a YouTube series where they talk about hot takes about movies. We're going to have even hotter takes. Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Based solely on the room temperature alone. Agreed. They're going to be so hot.
Starting point is 00:33:42 So we're going to go month to month. January will skip because we're in it and they released Glass already. That's true, yeah. So that's good. Oh, so the year's peaked. Yes. We can just wrap this up then.
Starting point is 00:33:52 Well, it is the highest grossing film of so far. That's insane. It's important, though, that you respect that movie. I will not. Okay, so we'll start in Feb. You know what? No, we'll get to it later. We will.
Starting point is 00:34:08 So these aren't exact dates. It varies from country to country. I think these are like American release dates, but most of them will be around here. First up, we've got the Lego Movie Part 2. Part 2. Did you enjoy the first one? Didn't see it.
Starting point is 00:34:21 The new one has some pretty good reviews. It's Mad Maxian. Right. There's a man in there who's like a Chris Pratt voices two characters one's like the Ace Rimmer version of him that's right yeah for that obscure reference it's not that obscure surely
Starting point is 00:34:33 I think it's obscure enough alright then okay tweet at me at MrSundayMovies or at Wikipedia Brown do you understand the Ace Rimmer reference you don't have to understand it it's absolutely fine if you don't I just want to kind of gauge
Starting point is 00:34:44 where it's at don't google it I googled it do you understand the Ace Rimmer have to understand it. Yep. It is absolutely fine if you don't. I just want to kind of gauge where it's at. Don't Google it and say, I Googled it. Do you understand the answer? Do you understand it? Yes or no? It's our famous yes or no question that we receive a bunch of yeses or nos during the week and we've forgotten what we were talking about. Yep.
Starting point is 00:34:57 So we don't know what you're referring to, but no context. No context. Please. So yeah, I'm probably not going to say this one. I like these movies. But I'm probably not going to say it. Just a blanket not saying it. Yeah. Because I'll probably just watch it to see this one I like these movies but I'm probably not just a blanket not seeing it
Starting point is 00:35:05 yeah because I I'll probably just watch it at home because I like them I like the Batman one and I liked the Lego first movie
Starting point is 00:35:11 Lego one I didn't see Ninjago and I won't but you know I will see this at some point but I just won't go out of my way
Starting point is 00:35:17 yeah I don't know I mean I I like Batman Lego Batman yeah but there's something about them that it doesn't
Starting point is 00:35:23 doesn't appeal to me I don't know what it is maybe you're not as fun and cool as you thought you were no I'm fun and cool though Batman, Lego Batman? Yeah. But there's something about him that doesn't appeal to me. I don't know what it is. Maybe you're not as fun and cool as you thought you were. No, I'm fun and cool, though. I changed my mind. I loved him now. I love him now.
Starting point is 00:35:33 I don't know what... I think maybe we talked about it before, but it's that weird pullback and reveal for every joke kind of thing. Okay, yeah. I don't know. Yeah, all right. So you're not going to see this? Probably not. Okay, ever?
Starting point is 00:35:44 No, I'll see it. Would you think you'd see the first one first, though? Yeah, I should. And then you'll see this one? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, all right. So you're not going to see this? Probably not. Okay, ever? No, I'll see it. Would you think you'd see the first one first, though? Yeah, I should. And then you'll see this one? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Great.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Great. Next up, we've got Cold Pursuit. It's Liam Neeson. He's doing an action scene. It's in the snow. His son has been murdered. He's going to avenge him. But apparently, it's more of a fun ride.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Really? A fun action ride. His son's been murdered. I don't know, man. Who's having fun? The audience? Him. All of it. So he's having fun the audience him all of it so he's having fun it's the actor liam neeson no but also the character's having fun i don't know have you seen the trailer it looks kind of no i haven't seen the show but i would love it if this is the first because you know he's spent the last 10 years doing these grim
Starting point is 00:36:18 yeah these grim euro thrillers where the daughter's been kidnapped and has been sold into slavery he has to get them back. And he's just, he doesn't want to, why is he here? And he's going to kill everybody. I would love it if this is a movie where his son's been killed and he's just happy to get out of the house and go to the snow. And about. And about.
Starting point is 00:36:36 And I'm going to avenge my son. This is going to be great. But no, I think this looks, because I generally see these ones, it's unstoppable or can't be stopped and unknown and where's my family and whatever. And I just kind of stopped watching them or remembering which one's which. But this one, watching the trailer for it, I went, this kind of looks different for the stuff that he makes. So I might see this one.
Starting point is 00:36:58 I'm fascinated by this. I might see this one. Does it also look like a weird Euro thriller? No. Huh. So this is an American movie. I'm not saying that but i'm saying it doesn't look like it doesn't look like it's not filmed in prague if there's a question yeah
Starting point is 00:37:09 that does it does answer my question yes and then to cap off feb we've got elite of battle angel which we're going to in a couple weeks we had a screening on monday all right which i might just skip and then just go i mean it's all it's it gets generally it's like three days later i also checked and also because i don't i'm not really making youtube reviews anymore because i double up and i like to think about it more than like see a movie and come home that's what yeah this is my immediate thoughts because often by the time i put it out i'm like i regret my immediate thoughts i would change that or you know which way do you generally go i generally go i like it less the more you think about it yeah or no not
Starting point is 00:37:44 even that it has less impact on me because then the next day I'm like I barely remember that yeah kind of thing well you were going to
Starting point is 00:37:51 remember this weird rollerball because they seem to be really banking heavily on she's in some sort of demolition no she's in some sort of roller derby tournament
Starting point is 00:38:01 in this which I don't recall being a prime element of the anime, but it's been a long time since I've seen it. Well, this has been a long time coming because James Cameron was threatening to make this for like 20 years.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Good verb there, threatening to. And I was keen to see it because I never really knew what it was. And then Robert Rodriguez went to him and said, well, you're never going to make this, can I? Because you're making Avatar forever until you drown. And he was like, how dare you? I can make as many movies as I want.
Starting point is 00:38:31 But they're all going to be Avatar. But so he did it and he's done Sin City. And, you know, he's had good stuff and bad stuff. But I don't like this. Like looking at the trailers, it's weirdting, and it looks like Ready Player One. And I... Yeah, but that being said... And it looks kind of also like that...
Starting point is 00:38:52 What was that Scarlett Johansson movie last year with the... Set in Tokyo and her mind... Ghost in the Shell. Yeah, if it looks like that... Yeah, right. Well, I'm also... I'd like to be surprised, though. Well, see, here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:39:02 I think by setting our expectations low, We could very well enjoy this quite a lot That's what I'm hoping That being said, I feel like Also, probably all the best effect shots are in the trailer Meaning a lot of this is going to look glossy and unreal Weird big eyes Some people love the weird big eyes What do you think of them?
Starting point is 00:39:18 They're kind of growing on me I think maybe I'll get some weird big eyes How do I look with weird big eyes? You don't have to I've got glasses on now. Imagine if my eyes were the size of the glasses. Your glasses don't make your eyes change size. Because you know sometimes people wear glasses and they take them off and their eyes are a different size.
Starting point is 00:39:33 I'm like, whoa, shit, your whole face is different. No, yours is the same. You must have like a weakish prescription. I have a weakish prescription. That's why they call me weakish prescription. So you're a rap name. Yeah, it's my rap name, exactly. Wait, so we'll see.
Starting point is 00:39:49 People say it in hushed tones. Like, oh my God. Weakish Prescription. Hard to say. Yeah, exactly. That's why you say it in a hushed tone, because it's hard to pronounce. You don't want to embarrass yourself. March is looking to be a month that's up and down.
Starting point is 00:40:02 Also, I'm definitely going to miss some here. We've got Captain Marvel. Yeah. And Dumbo Captain Marvel. Yeah. And Dumbo. No. No. Or like Nanbo. Nice.
Starting point is 00:40:11 I don't know. Dumbo in itself is an insult, isn't it? Exactly. Captain Marvel, I mean, we've talked about this enough, haven't we? We've talked it to death. Yeah. I'm excited. What else?
Starting point is 00:40:21 Who's going to be a Skrull? What's that count up to? Is someone going to be a Skrull? Yeah. going to be a Skrull? What's that count up to? Is someone going to be a Skrull? Yeah. Is Nick Fury a Skrull? People are saying like, we get a lot of theories of like Nick Fury's going to be replaced and blah, blah, blah. I've talked about maybe Captain Marvel herself is a Skrull.
Starting point is 00:40:35 A bunch of other stuff. Anyway, we don't need to talk about it anymore. That's true. We do need to talk about how to train your Dragon 3. Yeah, that's already out here. It is, yeah. But that's coming out about then
Starting point is 00:40:45 yeah right I need to watch the second one because my son loves the first one oh we're talking you know what
Starting point is 00:40:49 we won't talk about that we're talking about Dumbo yeah but I just recalled that because Colin Farrell's character only has one leg and the guy from or one arm
Starting point is 00:40:57 it's one of those yeah and the guy from how to train your dragon I just saw the poster he's only got one foot one foot yeah he's got one foot
Starting point is 00:41:03 he loses in the first one he loses in the first one yeah He loses in the first one. Okay. Yeah. Does it affect his life? Not really. That's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:09 Because he's like a blacksmith-y kid and he gives up a little. He builds an Army of Darkness style. He does. Artificial metal leg. Yeah, he really does. That's a good movie, that first one. I should watch the other ones. But Dumbo looks crap.
Starting point is 00:41:24 And I won't say it. Not even for this. What if it's free no no i'm not gonna say it's gonna say look disney got a lot of what if they hand you fifty dollars no that's not worth it how much money would they have to give you a thousand dollars to take it has to be in my local cinema wow yep wow and they have to get me some fun and you live above a above a cinema, so. Yes, that's right. Wow. Yeah. No, I won't see it. So much you love the movies, you live above a cinema. Should we see it? I don't. Is it an obligation?
Starting point is 00:41:50 No, I don't think so. At this point? No. Maybe we will. I don't know. Because people like it when we don't like things. That's true. But what if we do like it, then it's a double waste of time, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:41:58 That's true. Imagine going to a movie and liking it, and then you can't rinse it on a podcast. You know what I mean what was the last Tim Burton movie you enjoyed Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Big Eyes no
Starting point is 00:42:12 Big Eyes we're about paintings I'm gonna go back Dark Shadows didn't say it I quite liked The Headless Horseman or Sleepy Hollow
Starting point is 00:42:18 from oh yeah yeah yeah I like that one but that was a lot of years ago wasn't that like 2002 or something maybe earlier yeah I didn't like Sweeney Todd didn't say it alright let's check Yeah, okay, I like that one. But that was a lot of years ago. Wasn't that like 2002 or something? All right, yeah. Maybe earlier? Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Yeah. I didn't like Sweeney Todd. Didn't say it. All right, let's check this list. I didn't like Big Fish. You didn't? No. Yeah, no, I also didn't.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Okay, we're looking for the last thing we saw. The last thing he produced. Okay. No, not produced. Directed, okay. Directed. That's what I meant. Okay, so I'll go through.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Dumbo, no. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. I barely remember i didn't big eyes uh apparently frank and weenie was good but i didn't see that one big guys that's based on like a short film yeah i've actually heard that one's good that's that's i the only reason i know that it's because i got the i got the the making of batman the movie book when i was kid. And it mentions all his previous work. Okay. No, the last one I liked was Planet of the Apes because it's kind of funny. But it was Sleepy Hollow in 99.
Starting point is 00:43:13 It was the last one because I really enjoyed it. Oh, and he did Mars Attacks, of course. Yeah. People like Corpse Bride. Yeah. But, you know. Yeah, but. But. Correct.
Starting point is 00:43:21 That'll do it? That'll do it, I think, yeah. Okay, that's all the movies this year. Pick one of your favorites. Mason, which is the best one? Captain Marvel. Okay. Correct. That'll do it? That'll do it, I think, yeah. Okay, that's all the movies this year. Pick one of your favorites. Mason, which is the best one? Captain Marvel. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:29 April. There's more movies. Okay, but you tricked me. You thought 2019 was over already. Oh, I wish it was over already. It's a pretty interesting month. Shazam? Now, hang on.
Starting point is 00:43:37 What's the biggest month? What generally is the... What's blockbuster month? Now, it starts like April, but it used to be like june but now it's it starts way earlier uh so april we've got shazam shazam looks good yep sure does don't but you never know my i actually had a bit of a chuckle to myself last night oh did you remembered when hey everyone james had a bit of a chuckle i was about to pay you a compliment mason nah not happening here we go where you said after Aquaman,
Starting point is 00:44:05 it was the only DC movie of the recent ones that we saw of the new batch where you went, where you didn't say, why did you do that? Yeah, that's true. That just made me like, because that sums up those movies. Even the ones I like, there's always a bit where it's like, what were you thinking? There's very little of that in Aquaman, I think. So maybe this will be another one.
Starting point is 00:44:26 Yeah, but Aquaman is also the highest grossing DC movie of all time now. Aquaman. Beat Batman, beat Superman. Who'd have thunk it? Yeah, I know. Turns out if you didn't think they were going to make the movie, then they made the movie. But Shazam, I don't... Yeah, I'm not...
Starting point is 00:44:42 I wouldn't say I'm super excited for it, but I'm interested. I mean, we talked about earlier, the boys but i'm interested i mean we you know we talked about earlier the boys the umbrella academy you know different takes on superheroes maybe that's maybe we are right for this you know it's it's kind of uh it's a guy who's a superhero and he's self-aware about being a superhero in the world of superheroes he knows the tropes of super superheroism yeah could be fun or bad or bad i bad. I mean, are they going to lean heavily into that? Or are they... Is the movie itself not going to be self-aware about being a movie about a kid who's self-aware
Starting point is 00:45:13 about superheroes? Yes. Who himself is a superhero. I like the big goofy costume. Same. Yeah. I know people hate it, but I think it's supposed to be... Not everyone hates it.
Starting point is 00:45:21 But it's supposed to be ridiculous. Yeah. Also, you know, there was big news because it cost a million dollars a suit or whatever and they made eight don't they all cost like that and also as the director pointed out that's that's you've got to take into account design and you go through multiple incarnations and then you build you know your prototypes and you do you measure them and then you put them on the actor and then it doesn't fit on set and then you've got to tweak it you've got to tweak it then you give him another one but he's gotten more shredded since then.
Starting point is 00:45:46 So it's a waste. And then you yell at him for a while. He's like, but I just wanted to get more shredded. And don't get me wrong. It's a lot of money. It's stupid. Oh, yeah. But all of this is stupid.
Starting point is 00:45:55 I certainly wouldn't spend $8 million on a suit. No, $1 million per suit. Oh, yeah. Then I would. Yeah, I would. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, I'm not surprised.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Like, that wasn't a surprising number to me. No. Yeah. Next up, we've got Pet Cemetery with an S. Yes. Cemetery with an S, not pet. Pet's Cemetery. No, Pet Cemetery.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Spet Cemetery? Cemetery is with an S. Pet Cemeteries. Yeah. Okay. Pet Cemeteries. It's the sequel to Pet Cemetery. Cool.
Starting point is 00:46:23 You've got to up the stakes. Yeah. This is a... No, there's three Pet Cemeteries. They the sequel to Pet Cemetery Cool You gotta up the stakes Yep This is a No there's three pet cemeteries They're coming at us from all angles The cemeteries specifically Not the pets in them They're moving cemeteries If there's one thing we learned from movies last year
Starting point is 00:46:36 It's people like things that don't normally move Then they move Is that true? Cities and cemeteries Oh that's true That movie did very well So Pet Cemeteries Is a reboot of well it's
Starting point is 00:46:47 based on the stephen king book but there was a series of movies from the 80s and maybe into the 90s and you put you bury a pet in the pet cemetery but it's on an ancient evil indian burial ground or something and then your pets come back but they're mean and shit yes yeah so that's the subtitle of the movie yeah your pets come back they're mean and shit and that's what appears you know in the trailer where the big text
Starting point is 00:47:10 flies at you one word at a time over the course of the trailer your pets come back what Jason Clarke others
Starting point is 00:47:18 who dat new John Connor yeah yeah nanobot John Connor one of the Planet of the Apes he's good he's strange. He's a good actor, I think.
Starting point is 00:47:26 I think I'm looking forward to this. There's a bit of a Stephen King... Revival? ...renaissance, and they've done some good stuff so far. Yeah. This and Gerald's Game and It, and there's another It we'll talk about later. So, yeah. It 2?
Starting point is 00:47:38 It 2. It's. It's. No, there's two It's. Oh, no. They're closing in on us. But Hellboy is in after that. Yep.
Starting point is 00:47:47 He made the face. He didn't say anything, but he made a face of, I'm unsure about this. Yeah. He made the face of, I'm unsure about this, but I want it to be good, but I don't want to flat out say I don't think it's going to be good. Yep. His face said the whole lot all at the same time. That's why we need a video format for this.
Starting point is 00:48:01 That's right. We're working on it. But where are you with this movie? I think it's going to be better than the trailer has indicated i hope so yeah i know that's quite rare that's in fact it never happens almost the opposite every time yeah it's yeah it's almost guaranteed that a movie is not as good as its trailer indicates but i think you might be right you might be right yeah Yeah. And anything else? No, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:28 I think maybe they dug... See, I feel like Hellboy as a character has way better dialogue, like in the comic books and in the previous movies. He's got way better dialogue than in what we saw in the trailer. I think maybe they just pulled out quips. Okay, yeah. And I don't know. Yeah, okay. Maybe that's the mistake they made.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Or the mistake they made was rebooting this movie. Yeah, I don't even know. Like, is this going to make money? Doubtful. Yeah, we'll see, won't we? Well, they've gone lower budget and they probably filmed it in Prague or whatever, so it might be all right. Well, that's where Baba Yaga hangs out. That is true.
Starting point is 00:48:58 To cost cut, they use the real Baba Yaga. What do you think of a chicken house? I love a chicken house. Do you think it's a cool thing to do though? Yeah, it's very cool. It's very now. That house is coming right at us on its chicken legs. That's right.
Starting point is 00:49:11 That's what I'm saying. I hear you, man. Yeah. Does that house walk? It must. Yeah, it does. Because why be on legs for? That's right.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Yeah. See, that's the kind of hellboy dialogue that I'm looking forward to. Hey, what's your house cover? What's it on legs for? What juice is coming at us? Is it? I'm so forward to it. Hey, what's your house cover? What's it on the legs for? What juice is coming at us? Is it? Abe Sapien run. Is Abe Sapien in this one?
Starting point is 00:49:31 I don't think he is. I didn't see him. No. Was it a chicken? Was it a giant chicken converted into a house? Or a house converted into a chicken leg house? I think it's towards the second one. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:40 I think maybe she's just always had a chicken leg house. But I feel like there needs to be an origin for the chicken leg house. Like there was a big free chicken. Well, if we all see this movie a lot, if we really get a grab. And they test it where you turn the dial up or what. Yeah, left or right, chicken leg. But it says instead of a dial that's left and right, dial to the left is house with chicken legs.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Dial to the right is just a regular house. And people are like, oh is just a regular house and people like oh no regular house anyway we're gonna get a grassroots campaign going yeah chicken leg house chicken leg house origin uh and if we all see this new hell boy we're gonna get a chicken leg house origin just to clarify it's two chicken legs only isn't it yeah it doesn't have four chicken you need more i don't know if that's stable no but but its chicken legs have like claws at the bottom. Yeah, fair point. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:26 And it's probably not like a, like a big crooked house. It's probably quite square. It's a little, it's a little cottage. Yeah, cool. Okay.
Starting point is 00:50:31 Let's make sense to me now. Does it often squat? So you don't know it's a chicken leg house and then it stands up. I don't know. I don't know that actually. Interesting. I feel like it's always been,
Starting point is 00:50:40 always has visible chicken legs, but. I need more information about the chicken leg house in this movie. Okay, I'm going to Google it. Not well not now no i want to go into the movie and then i want to hear more about the chicken leg oh you think they're gonna you're gonna get more origin yeah i wanted to turn up the house and go this is just a regular house i thought we were looking for chicken leg house oh we're rising up in the sky legs does it have a little chicken leg chicken leg house i don't know chicken leg uh like cub. Okay, so the producers of Hellboy, if you're listening,
Starting point is 00:51:07 and you haven't done any origin, it's time for a reshoot. Yes. You haven't done the origin of Baba Yaga's house. Chicken leg house. Yeah. Okay, and after that, we've got Avengers Endgame. But I feel like you're too wrapped in chicken leg houses. In Baba Yaga's house.
Starting point is 00:51:18 No, no, we can talk about it. Look, I'll do it later. I am interested, though. Yeah, me too. Avengers Endgame. But like with Captain Marvel and Shazam and these other things we've talked to death already. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:28 Yeah, I'm going to see this as soon as I can. Anyway, next week the show is going to start with Welcome to the Weekly Planet where we talk about Baba Yaga's house. Exclusively the origins of Baba Yaga's house. Can we call it Chicken Leg House, please? Okay, Chicken Leg House. But Avengers Endgame.
Starting point is 00:51:43 Yes. It'll probably be the biggest movie of the year, I'd imagine financially. Yeah. What is interesting is Black Panther domestically in the US made more money than Avengers Endgame. Isn't that fascinating? Do you mean Infinity War? Yeah. It's definitively made more money than Endgame because that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:51:59 That's correct. Yeah. Do you think this will be the biggest movie next year? Yes. Cool. Hell yeah. Anything to say? Nah.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Maybe a couple more trailers? Who'll live? Who'll die? Who's a Skrull? I do think they'll do Skrulls. Nah. I don't reckon they'll do it. Do you reckon Captain America will die?
Starting point is 00:52:16 Yes. Yeah, me too. Do you think Iron Man will die? No. Do you think he'll have to live with regret? I think he'll have a kid, so he has to live to be a good dad. Uh-huh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:30 What about he dies, Captain America becomes the kid's foster father? He'd be a better father. Yeah. I mean, that's the ideal scenario. Isn't it though? That might be what happens. Yeah. No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:36 I mean, again, we don't need to talk about this more, do we? No. Okay. Next up in May, we've got Detective Pikachu. That's right. Now, we've mentioned apparently, I don't remember saying this. No, I remember saying it. This doesn't count as a video game movie? Yeah, because we were
Starting point is 00:52:49 to be clear, we didn't know Detective Pikachu was an existing video game. No, I knew it was. Oh, okay, right. You son of a bitch. Did I say it too that it doesn't count? I think so. Or did you say it and I just agreed with you? I think I said it and you agreed. Great. Because you weren't listening. Yeah, probably. I guess, yeah, so I guess technically it counts. I think I said it and you agreed. Great. Because you weren't listening. Yeah, probably. I guess, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:06 So I guess technically it counts. Yes. How close does it adhere to? Had I known it was a video game, I thought there were Pokemon games and then Detective Pikachu was a fun, a cinematic twist on that genre. And there was no existing Detective Pikachu video game. But now that I know, of course it is. Okay. Of course it counts.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Do you think it's going to be the best one? Yeah. It might just be. Looks fun. Looks fun. Man. Anyway, now we've cleared that up. And we've cleared the air.
Starting point is 00:53:31 And we'll stop tweeting us every day forever. That's right. It counts. Yeah. Now that when people tweet us, we can go, no, listen to the most recent episode, scroll to here. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:40 And then after that, we've got John Wick Perineum. What's he up to? Everybody's after him. Yep him and he's running about luckily he's got guns and a horse yeah I know, just shoot the horse though if he's on a horse you shoot the horse you shoot that horse in the head, he's coming off that horse let's say you needed to get a guy
Starting point is 00:53:56 let's say you're chasing a guy and he's on a horse would you personally shoot the horse? yes, would you? who is he though? I'm saying, well that's true wait a minute, no I'd probably aim for him because i don't think of one bullet you'd have to be a really good shot to kill a horse i'd probably aim for him okay depending how close i am if i if it was like to definitively stop him if you shoot the horse i'd shoot the horse there you go because that's i feel like people are disinclined to shoot but it depends who it is like if i'm a police officer
Starting point is 00:54:24 and i'm chasing some guy who's robbed a liquor store or whatever i'm not shooting the horse exactly but if he's like first of all you're fascinated to waste rob a liquor store on a horse yeah but if he's like murdered my family then it's whatever it takes man is what i'm saying i'm not shooting a horse on a whim that's true yeah yeah i've never shot anything except a horse what if the horse murdered your family and the guy's an innocent victim? He's been duct taped to the horse. You shoot the horse? Yes.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Okay. Wow. Is that not okay? What about the guy? I don't care. All right. Who duct taped him to the horse? Duct taped him to the horse?
Starting point is 00:54:56 Your family did. Oh. Yeah. So he's not, they're not. So in a way your murdered family is implicit. Yeah. I'd have to think about that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:04 Uh-huh. Yeah. interesting. They did it as a prank. Yes. And the horse got mad and murdered them. That's the revelation. Yes. As you're about to shoot the horse.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Yeah. It's like, but did you know? Yeah. And then, yeah. Next up is Aladdin. Boo. Yeah, boo. But fine.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Boo, boo. Could be really good. Yeah. But I don't care. I want to see The Genie that's when I'm yeah do you think this is set in the Bright universe
Starting point is 00:55:29 well the Bright as in the Will Smith oh my god Netflix movie with Joel Edgerton yeah aren't they doing a sequel
Starting point is 00:55:36 to that still surely not well they made a lot of Netflix views oh did they yeah they made a lot of net bucks yeah net bucks
Starting point is 00:55:43 that's what happens if you submit a movie to Netflix bucks. Yeah, net bucks. That's what happens if you submit a movie to Netflix, you get issued net bucks and you can eventually exchange them over. Interesting. Once you make a million net bucks, you can exchange them. How many net clicks to a net buck? Oh, you can't. So it's one net
Starting point is 00:55:58 click to net buck but then you can only exchange the net bucks for Bitcoin. Is that good or bad at the moment? That's bad. Okay. But maybe one day it'll be good. Because a lot of my friends got on board. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:10 And then... I think it took a dive. Yeah, but I don't think any of them lost that much money. Yeah. Well, they all did. There's a group on my phone that I ignore. Did anybody buy some AK-47s off the internet? Not to my knowledge.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Maybe Barry. I reckon Barry probably did. Next up, we've got Brightbird. Oh, all right, which is Man of Steel, but he's a little different. Well, half of that I'm keen on. Bright, obviously. Yes. You remember this one, though. Bright is evil Superman, right?
Starting point is 00:56:33 Yeah, Brightburn. Yes. Brightburn, yes. Yeah, it's Man of Steel, but it's main. Who directed this again? I don't remember, but James Gunn. James Gunn. There we go.
Starting point is 00:56:41 That's who I'm thinking of, yeah. Do you want me to check who directed it? No, I don't. Okay. Yeah, this looks interesting yeah I'll take an evil Superman
Starting point is 00:56:49 for sure with a weird gas mask on or whatever again I think I said this when we first heard about it it's interesting they didn't go with
Starting point is 00:56:54 an already existing here's an evil Superman property of which you know comic book property of which there are many like not specifically Superman but like
Starting point is 00:57:03 Irredeemable or Supreme Power or... I guess this is... You can do this cheaper. Yeah, that's true. It's just a kid. Yeah. Cool.
Starting point is 00:57:09 But it's also interesting that nobody is suing over this. Well, how do you... Because then wouldn't... If you're ripping off... You're doing evil Superman, is that then a... See? Because it's an interesting grey area. Because, like, when Superman was first invented, they could sue anybody willy-nilly.
Starting point is 00:57:23 With a cape. Yeah, any dude with a cape who could fly or jump really high they could just be like that's too close to our origin like that's you know that's captain marvel shazam yeah disappeared for many years because they essentially were like you can't make this anymore because it's because he's a man with brown hair and a cape and he can fly and he's strong and they went oh i guess you but now every anytime anybody builds their own superhero universe, there is a Superman archetype.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Yes. You can just throw one in. He can have exactly the same powers of Superman. Yep. And he can be called Superb Man. Yeah. And there's nothing that DC can do, apparently. That's right.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Because you can just say it's satire. Yeah, so it's weird. But this kind of is the first time that it's been brought into film. And I'm sort of interested to know... I mean, the trailer is... It's the Man of Steel trailer. That's i'm saying the music it's so weird everything yeah is it's a parody i guess it's a tie or is it a yeah i don't know i'd just be interested i'll be very fascinated to see the making of when it comes out yeah just to see or just to i'd just
Starting point is 00:58:21 love to listen into a phone call at the lawyer's office just somebody's sweating over but is it also as superheroes now like police officers where you can't like if you did the first police officer movie if someone else makes one you can't be like well i do i guess that's true if if the police officer you're thinking of came from an alien planet and was rescued by a kindly couple they tried to raise him normally but then he had laser eyes and he could fly really fast. Okay, fair point. Did you see that movie? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Oh, yeah. Gas Mask Laser Eyes Cop. Yeah. Yeah. Gas Mask Laser Eyes Cop. Yeah. After that, we've got Godzilla King of Monsters. Oh!
Starting point is 00:58:57 Did you know they keep releasing Godzilla animated movies to Netflix? Yeah, I've seen that. There's three of them. A few people have recommended them. But he's like 9,000 feet tall in it. That seems too tall for... He's the biggest Godzilla.... fish correct is he nice no wait don't know didn't get that far that sounds about right watch five minutes the first one is he a boy or a girl well i've never said explicitly but he does lay eggs so he's a girl some lay eggs yeah or he's a
Starting point is 00:59:21 hermaphrodite yes you should say that on my video, Mason, about it. I'm aware people are very upset. I did that just to write up everyone. I know. And people are just like, Godzilla's a boy. How dare you? And I mean, his name, it's Godzilla, A. Yes. And in the romantic languages, that indicates a girl.
Starting point is 00:59:39 King. Yeah, king. Because I could, either either either. Yeah. But as I explained in the video, there has been some girls who have been kings over the decade exactly right so if that really winds you up you have bigger problems you really do yeah that's the worst part of your day that Godzilla might be a girl very very strange what we're talking about oh yeah they say he's a girl oh it's so good oh if they just cut out what we literally just said and inserted in the movie
Starting point is 01:00:03 I wouldn't mind like you get you get the scene in the boardroom and then it just had mouths moving and us going, well, it says, hey, so that's a girl. I tell you, that's a girl's day, isn't it? Next up we've got in June. Apparently, June, Dark Phoenix is being released. All right. Well, I'll believe it when I say it
Starting point is 01:00:25 they'll release it it just might be good well of the two X-Men movies this year that will be the one that will probably more likely be released they'll release them both
Starting point is 01:00:31 right why wouldn't they yeah make some money before you sell them off yeah you know sure
Starting point is 01:00:37 I don't what do you what do you want what do you want X-Men fans we don't even know anymore what do you want I think that's actually one of them where fans? We don't even know anymore. What do you want? I think that's actually one of them where I did the review.
Starting point is 01:00:47 I came out and went, it's fine. And then for the last one, the more I think about it, I'm like, that wasn't good. Yeah. And I gave it a pass. Yeah, yeah. So I don't care about this, and I wouldn't see it if I wasn't doing this show.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Yeah, fair enough. Hey, speaking of, and I just realized this, I just learned this recently. So speaking of X-Men, Bryan Singer, yuck, he's out. But he was turfed from Bohemian Rhapsody. Did you know the replacement director was Dexter Fletcher from Press Gang? Get the fuck out of here. I saw him once.
Starting point is 01:01:18 I've talked about it. I saw him in a market in London. Well, he was the replacement director, which is apparently he's executive producer. Okay. He's listed as that because of the DGA rules, you can't. Because didn't Singer film most of it or something? Yeah, something like that.
Starting point is 01:01:33 He's still doing Red Sonja. The guy who defended him. I mean, look, let's not get into this. Yeah, we won't. Let's get into a little bit. Okay. No, but allegations obviously should be proven, but there's a lot. Yeah. I read that article. It's a lot of boys. Yeah. No, but like allegations obviously should be proven. But there's been, there's a lot. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:45 Like I read that article. It's a lot of boys. Yeah. Like a lot. Yeah. And you'd think that would at least make you go, maybe we'll just put this
Starting point is 01:01:53 on hold for now until this thing has been sorted. Jesus. Anyway, he sounds like a monster. Yeah. But anyway, my point is
Starting point is 01:02:01 that that guy, the replacement director, who we know as Soap from Lock, Stock and Tis... Is that his actual... Is his name Dexter Fletcher? Dexter Fletcher, yeah. It is. Okay, right.
Starting point is 01:02:09 He's the guy in the wheelchair from the movie Doom. That's right. And Spike from Press Gang. Yes. And yeah, he directed Bohemian Rhapsody. I did not know that. Because it's almost like they're not acknowledging who made that movie. Like when they go up and collect awards, it's like, which of these seven people standing
Starting point is 01:02:25 on the stage directed this? He also was in Band of Brothers and he directed Eddie the Eagle, which is that sports movie. Yeah. That's a great movie. There you go. Yeah. He should do more stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:36 Okay. Eddie the Eagle was fantastic. In June also, we've got Men in Black. Isn't it good when you bloody remember a guy from back in the day who was good? And he's doing good stuff. I feel like that about Fred Savage. I'm finding out he's been doing all these things. I watched the second season of Friends from College.
Starting point is 01:02:52 He's great in that. He's really good. Men in Black International. Yeah. All right. I'm kind of keen. It's a reap. I like the cast a lot.
Starting point is 01:03:01 And we're probably due for another one of these. Sure, yeah. And there's good stuff in that universe, which feel like they haven't putting things in lockers yes putting things in snow globes how big's your gun too small putting a thing in a k-ring one gun's too small one gun's too big what can your car do you push a button and wings come out or something yeah the controller's a playstation this universe can do stuff that the fast and furious universe cannot flying Flying car? Absolutely. Love it.
Starting point is 01:03:29 Do you think they'll have a weird modern control for the car like they did in Part 2? Remember in Part 2, the controller was a... Oh, PlayStation controller. PlayStation. What if they're like, it's a Nintendo Wii. Wii mode. You've got to waggle. It's a Nintendo Labo. They have to assemble it out of cardboard.
Starting point is 01:03:39 That's a more updated reference. I wish they made one in the era of the xbox hands-free controller yeah that monstrosity i think i don't think they'll i don't think it'll be anything no i think they'll just tilt the steering wheel do you think i'll just make it retro future fun yeah but it's not a we it used didn't it used to be like a real like a like a disgusting old black ford fairlane or something like that like some old car in the original movie yeah the original i don't think it was disgusting i think it was slick yeah right but it was like an older model car yeah yeah because they're you know they're a company they're an organization from the 50s or whatever that's true yeah yeah and after
Starting point is 01:04:11 that we've got son of shaft now you might say yeah what's going on in the shaft of us yeah i'll tell you so the original shaft if you remember there was i think it's three or four films yeah uh from the 70s uh it's a it's a detective yeah It's one of the first kind of major black mainstream. Can I stop you there? He's a black private dick and he's a sex machine with all the chicks. That sums things up perfectly. You're talking about Shaft?
Starting point is 01:04:33 Still got Shaft. Cut to the year 2000-ish. Oh, yeah. There's a reboot. But it's not a reboot. It's a sequel. It is a sequel. His nephew, Samuel L. Jackson,
Starting point is 01:04:44 is playing the new version of Shaft, who's a cop. Yep. But some racism gets the better of a situation. Yeah. And he throws out his badge. He's like, I'm no longer a cop. I'm a Shaft. And he goes and kills Christian Bale, who's the racist in that.
Starting point is 01:04:58 This one is a sequel set in that same universe with Sam Jackson and the original Shaft. And he's got a... Now, Sam Jackson Shaft has a son who's also a shaft? No, I think the son is the grandson of the original shaft. Right. Okay. So they are related in some way. Anyway, this could be great.
Starting point is 01:05:15 I agree. I love that they've brought this back and it's in the same universe. I'm glad Richard Rowntree is still alive. Yeah, me too. And he looks great. So I've never seen any of the originals. I remember thinking the 2001 was fun-ish from memory. I don't recall it being fun at all.
Starting point is 01:05:29 Okay. I remember Christian Bale being spooky in it and also the dude from Westworld who's the designer, Arnold was in it. He's like a lunatic. Yeah, right. I remember him being really good in it in particular. But yeah, I don't remember much else about it.
Starting point is 01:05:43 But this is cool man i'm glad they're doing it and then after that we got toy story 4 where your childhood is gonna make you cry yourself to death or whatever that's right toy story 4 not gonna say it right no i'll probably say it right in july we've got spider-man he's far from home oh yeah he's fighting all sorts of jack ellen halls or is he a good guy he's not no's a bad guy. There's no way he's a good guy. We've got a Caravan of Garbage this week about, we mentioned last week, but it's actually coming out this week, about Mysterio's origin in the animated cartoon. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 01:06:12 Yeah. It's a lot of fun. And also yesterday there was a video on the channel, which is about weird Spider-Man villains that we go through. And there's some strange ones. We tried to find some. We could probably do another video on more weird Spider-Man villains. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:25 And again. A lot of people's favorite on more weird Spider-Man villains. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Again. A lot of people's favorite Spider-Man villain is the spot. Yeah. We've rustled some feathers. I think it's a cool concept. We've ruffled some feathers. But I don't...
Starting point is 01:06:33 What have they done with it? And also, you know what his one skill is? Spider-Man punches him and he punches himself. Yes. That's it. That's a good skill, though. That is a good skill, yeah. After they've got the Lion King, it's the Lion King.
Starting point is 01:06:43 Mm-hmm. That's it. Were you saying that it's not 100%? It's not shot for shot? Not shot for shot. Okay. Yeah, it's punch for punch. Oh.
Starting point is 01:06:51 Yeah. And after that, we've got, this might be interesting, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which is Tarantino's next film. Oh, that's right. I've seen some set footage of that. And that's it. We're due for a trailer soon, apparently. We'll have to be because it's out in July.
Starting point is 01:07:04 It's Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio. Brad Pitt has been... He's got the long hair back. He's kind of been de-aged to his Thelma and Louise self. Sure. I think this movie will set the precedent for haircuts. For the coming year or the coming decade? The coming decade.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Because I feel like Brad Pitt showing up in Inglourious Bastards set the shave the sides of your head haircut that's true he did yeah here's the thing he was also in Fury so maybe he needs
Starting point is 01:07:30 maybe he needs two you're probably right so I think shave sides of the head is going to be out soon which is good for me because I hate getting that haircut
Starting point is 01:07:37 because you've got to get it done all the time that's true yeah I'm growing it out Mason I'm going whatever Brad Pitt's doing I'm with him alright
Starting point is 01:07:44 you should start now then. I should. By the time the movie's out, you want to be at the red carpet premiere. Yep. Swishing your hair about. Swishing it about. Swishing my grey hair. Like a man in a Pantene commercial.
Starting point is 01:07:57 Oh, I thought you were going to also dye it blonde. I should do that actually, shouldn't I? Yeah. Yeah. And then tint your eyebrows. And tint your beard hair. Like Hemsworth? Yes. Great. I'm going to have to shave your beard as well. I don't your eyebrows. And tint your beard hair. Like Hemsworth? Yes.
Starting point is 01:08:05 Great. I'd only have to shave your beard as well. I don't want to shave my beard. No, you're going to have to do it. You're going to be glossy. I did it already. People didn't like it. They really didn't.
Starting point is 01:08:12 People were upset. Next up we've got August. Fast and Furious presents Hobbs and Shaw. Is that what it's really called? Apparently so. My goodness. It should be called Hobbs and Shaw, right? Imagine it's like small writing Hobbs and Shaw.
Starting point is 01:08:25 But I mean, are you saying the word presents is in there? I'm just going to double check that. Okay, because that feels very much like a... Yep. Fast and Furious presents colon Hobbs and Shaw. And all the N's are the N's with the symbol. It's like some sort of old-timey vaudeville situation. What do you think, though, for this?
Starting point is 01:08:44 You love vaudeville and you love big heads. They're like, we're busting out of prison. The only thing we can wear is these red and white striped boating blazers and these straw hats. Anyway, let's get out there and put on a show. I think this is going to be great. Yeah, same. I think it's going to be like a bigger budgeted XXX kind of.
Starting point is 01:09:04 They've distilled the Fast and Furious movies down to what we want, which is Jason Statham and The Rock hitting people. Yes. Those guys are the best parts of those movies, I feel, and they've done well to wrangle this franchise away from Vin Diesel. Yeah. No, he's good too. But you can have different spin-offs.
Starting point is 01:09:21 But in the last movie, what was your favorite scene featuring Vin Diesel? I don't remember, but I do like the bit where Statham was in the plane with the baby. Exactly. And what was your favorite bit about Fast and Furious 7? Your favorite Vin Diesel bit? Was it the breakout of jail bit? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Which features Hobbs and Shaw. Was that 7? That's 7. No, that was the last one. Oh, was it? Okay. Yeah. Well, my favorite part about 7 is when the Rock is in a hospital bed and his team
Starting point is 01:09:48 needs him. So he gets out of bed and then he flexes his arms and he breaks his cast. I like the bit where they drag the safe in whatever one that one's into. Yeah, right. It's a good one, isn't it? It's good. Next up, we've got the new- But anyway, that's a safe.
Starting point is 01:10:00 That's not Vin Diesel. That's true. Next up, we've got the new mutants. All right. Do you think they'll release it? Yeah, I think they'll release it. I mean, I guess the only reason they wouldn't release it is if they have a minimum marketing budget. Yep.
Starting point is 01:10:14 And they project that that is going to cost more than the movie is going to bring in. In which case, maybe they won't. Maybe it'll be good. But maybe they'll just be like, okay, we'll put some ads on Facebook and hope that'll do it. We'll see what happens. And word of mouth will get around that it's good. But it won't.
Starting point is 01:10:30 And then everybody laughs in the board meeting. Then we've got Dory the Explorer. I included this because it could be a popular franchise. Might be a bit late, this movie, though. Is that still a popular thing with kids? I think so. Cool. It might be right on time.
Starting point is 01:10:43 Yeah. Might be a character kids have grown up with and now they love it. I think it's the girl from the Transformers movie with the girl. Oh, yeah. The one from the last one who was in it for 10 minutes. Yes. The one that was pitched as he's the new hero of the Transformers franchise. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:58 And she was in it for five minutes and then she was gone. Yeah. But it didn't get too weird. I mean, it was a shit film, but I thought it was going to get more leery than it did. Yeah. Yeah. Next up is Artemis Fowl. Boy, boy villain.
Starting point is 01:11:11 Boy, boy genius villain. But Kenneth Branagh, so that's why I'm like, maybe. Yeah, cool. And after that, we've got Playmobil the movie, which is the Lego knockoff, or maybe it's owned by Lego. Who knows? Oh, I was thinking of Duplo. You might be.
Starting point is 01:11:24 Because there's Duplo in the Lego movies, right? I'll i'll find out if play mobile is i don't think it is i think it's some sort of weird it's owned by some sort of weird finnish company not that lego probably isn't yes brand by brand stata group but it's probably pronounced differently because all the it's pronounced bram stoker group oh my god yes it was originally uh to um to promote it was originally invented to promote bram Stoker's Dracula. Is that true? Yeah. Founded in 1876.
Starting point is 01:11:49 Lines up. It does. And next up, we've got Angel Has Fallen. You might be asking, what is that? I am asking that. It's the sequel to... You know what? I'm not going to give you the satisfaction.
Starting point is 01:11:59 I'm not going to ask you about it. You already said you're asking. You're always there like, next up is Angel's something. And then you have this look like. No, but I asked you to ask me. I didn't just throw it out there, Mason. Well, I'm not interested. But maybe some of the listeners are, so you should tell them.
Starting point is 01:12:13 London is Fallen sequel. It's the third one in that. So in this one, somebody goes to assassinate the president. And they think it's Jerry Butler, even though he keeps saving the president. Yeah, right. And so he's on the run for the crime. Yeah, but this guy's really moody. Maybe this time he would want to saving the president. Yeah, right. And so he's on the run for the crime. Yeah, but this guy's really moody. Maybe this time he would want to kill the president.
Starting point is 01:12:29 You know, some people, they're like, I want to save the president. I want to kill the president. But this guy, no. So he, that's- I feel very confident that in life, with any given president, you would only ever want to save that president
Starting point is 01:12:40 or kill that president. Like I'm not changing my mind on the current president. Whatever my opinion is on the current president, I'm not going to change that opinion for any reason you think you think politicians can't turn people around in general yes i think that's probably true yeah some people but i think on the level of would you want to kill them or not i think you can't change that which you're locked in either way i think if you're locked in that you definitely want to kill the president yeah i don't think an impassioned speech by that president will prevent you from still wanting to kill that president. What if they do a selfie with you?
Starting point is 01:13:10 Yeah, then, yeah. Then you'd be okay? Yeah, for sure. Then people would be happy with that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You might put it on Instagram with a caption, gonna kill this guy, lol. But you've softened up a bit, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:19 You're like, this guy's all right. Well, thanks, Mason. We're now on a list. Next up, we're... Surely we're already on a list. In September, we've got. I'll do anything for publicity. I will kill Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:13:36 It's satire. Yeah, it's satire. That's what I'm doing. In September, we've got It Chapter Two. It looks good. Yeah. From the cast. I've just realized
Starting point is 01:13:48 that that may impinge on our ability to tour America in future, so I don't want to kill Donald Trump. Okay, good. It Chapter 2, do you think it'll be good?
Starting point is 01:13:55 Yes. Yeah. McAvoy's back. McAvoy's back-a-boy. McAvoy, yeah. Well, he wasn't in the first one. No, that's true.
Starting point is 01:14:01 I just meant in the entertainment industry. Yeah, sure. I feel bad because I've seen sarah paulson and james mcavoy do like the press tour on youtube oh yeah like they're doing all the wide interviews and all the vogue and yeah whatever and they seem very charming and i'm like oh yeah i feel bad your movie's terrible
Starting point is 01:14:15 or great mason yeah in your opinion this got jessica chastain bill hater james mcavoy oh bill hater yeah a bunch of a bunch of names jack Jay Ryan, who's an Australian actor who you might know from Neighbours. I don't. Isaiah Mustafa, who you know as the dude from... I'm on a horse. Old Spice. John Wick 3? Old Spice.
Starting point is 01:14:37 Oh, no. Old Spice Boy. Oh, right. There you go. Yeah. So, yeah. I didn't know he was an actor, like a film actor. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 01:14:43 Well, yes. Is that since the Old Spice ads, or has he always been? I don't know. I'm going to look it up. I can find out if you want. Yeah, yeah. I didn't know he was an actor, like a film actor. Yeah, well, yes. Is that since the Old Spice ads or has he always been? I don't know. I'm going to look it up. I can find out if you want. Yeah, please. I've got his name right here. Okay.
Starting point is 01:14:51 Born in 1974. He had a career in football. Oh. And acting in Old Spice. So, yeah. I mean, I guess he's an actor because he acted in that ad. He is very. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:15:01 That ad has a lot of good timing to it. It's true. He did Ugly Betty, Dates of Our Lives, and they were before that. He also was in Horrible Bosses. So he's done some stuff. Did you know the best man at Dexter Fletcher's wedding was Alan Rickman? Alan Rickman. Alan Rickman.
Starting point is 01:15:16 I didn't know they were friends. Apparently. I mean, less so these days. Yeah, I'd imagine so. One of them isn't committed to that friendship. I agree. Then we've got Downton Abbey. The movie? The movie. What? Yep. All right. Did you right you've watched that no it's fine i'm not against it people love it
Starting point is 01:15:30 happy hogan loves it do you mean john manfred oh okay right and then spies in disguise oh that's right the will smith is uh is that it yeah animated man but then he turns into a pigeon love it is that the whole premise of the movie? Yes. Is it really? I don't know. No, neither do I. Should we watch it? You're fascinated by this movie. Because that trailer is so weird.
Starting point is 01:15:51 It is, isn't it? And it's almost like there's an expectation during that trailer that you're on board. Because it just... Yeah, right. And it breaks into this thing like... And it's like, what? And I'm not going to say it. October, we've got Joker.
Starting point is 01:16:06 Yeah, right. Interesting, right? That's in that video that we did. Yeah. You know what? The tension ramping up to this movie is unbearable because I don't know what it's going to be. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:15 I think we'll obviously have a better idea when the trailer comes out. Yeah. Do you think this movie would do better if they didn't release any trailers up until release day and people are like, what is this movie? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:16:26 Because you need people to know what it is. But I think for me, the tension is going to dissipate. The anticipation is going to dissipate as we get more trailers. And dissipation. Exactly. Because I'm going to be like, oh, this is what it is. It's a generic crime caper, but somebody's got clown makeup on. It's the most interesting aspect of crime caper, but somebody's got clown makeup on. Somebody's got clown makeup on, yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:49 It's the most interesting aspect of The Dark Knight, but stretched out. Yeah. But right now, it's magical. It is magical. It's crazy. It's the Schrodinger's cat of Joker movies. Yes. Wow.
Starting point is 01:16:58 Next up is Zombieland 2. They're making that. There you go. All right. 10 years since the last one, if you can believe it. And is this going to be set 10 years after the original? I think it is, yeah. Where's the world at? What's Bill Murray?
Starting point is 01:17:06 I mean, he's dead. Yeah, he's dead, yeah. These are all good things. Unless he's still bleeding out. He may just be. And that's okay. Wait, was he a zombie? Did he turn into a zombie at the end of the last one?
Starting point is 01:17:14 I think he just died, didn't he? Okay. I don't know. And then I mentioned this because it's very popular overseas, but we didn't really get it here. Are you afraid of the dark? You know that goosebumps is a thing now. Yes. And, you know, it and Str and stranger things how it's like kids
Starting point is 01:17:26 but spooky time yes you know so i think that's a good time to bring that back do you ever watch any of that i haven't seen a single second of it no neither have i yeah november oh terminator six or three that's coming up yep that's right very excited for this same i shouldn't be but i am yep same that's how they get us every time. Mm, same. I shouldn't be, but I am. Yep, same. That's how they get us every time. You know what I watched the other night? What's that? Terminator 3.
Starting point is 01:17:49 Why? Just apropos of nothing. Because it's the only one on Netflix. It's the only one on Netflix, yeah. But to be fair, I wanted to watch it anyway. Weird. Yeah. I just had the thought, actually, I think it may have been yesterday,
Starting point is 01:17:59 why is it there's only ever Terminator 3 on? Sometimes you can find Terminator 2, but as soon as you want to watch it, it's gone. It's gone and Terminator 3 is on. I'd even watch Genesis again because it's dumb. I think that's on there, isn't it? No, it's not.
Starting point is 01:18:11 Oh, it's not? No, it's not. I watched, actually, because I got a VPN, Nord VPN. I didn't have it for this week, but there's an offer code. It's on the video.
Starting point is 01:18:20 It's on the latest Spider-Man video if you want. Anyway, I accidentally went to Netflix and then the only one that was on there was Terminator 2 in the US because they had it set to the video it's on the latest Spider-Man video if you want but anyway I accidentally went to Netflix and then the only one that was on there was Terminator 2 in the US because they had it set
Starting point is 01:18:28 to the US thing and I was like oh man and then I switched it and I was like yes Terminator 3 that's the one I want wow
Starting point is 01:18:34 wow it's a movie that's fascinating to me yeah yeah it is fascinating isn't it yeah in good and bad ways
Starting point is 01:18:41 I kind of like it next anyway I think this could be great, though. Do you agree with me, Mason? It could be great, yes. Great. Yes.
Starting point is 01:18:48 Next up, Charlie's Angels. All right. Apparently, it's Elizabeth Banks directing. Okay, sure. One of the Charlie's Angels is- She did all the Pitch Perfect movies? Three. Just three?
Starting point is 01:19:01 She did three, yeah. And she's also- She only did number three, is what you're saying? Yes. Number three wasn't a good one? Apparently not. I haven't seen any of them. I've seen all of them, and it's also she only did number three is what you're saying yes number three wasn't the good one apparently not I haven't seen any I've seen all of them and it's not the good one
Starting point is 01:19:08 okay this one's got I think she did all of them I don't think so okay then I think she was involved I think she may have been a writer which is perfect
Starting point is 01:19:15 I'll find out for you Mason please do so she did two but she didn't direct three oh so I apologize so she did do a good one okay great
Starting point is 01:19:24 yeah I apologize nice great so what else yeah Charlie's Angels is um But she didn't direct three. Oh. So I apologize. So she did do a good one. Okay, great. Yeah, I apologize. Nice. Great. So what else? Yeah. Charlie's Angels, it's got, what's her name? Kristen Stewart is in it.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Yep. As is Naomi Scott. As is Patrick Stewart. As is Sam Clafen. You might know as the guy with the trident from the Hunger Games. Trident Boy. Oh, sure. Yeah, Trident Boy. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:43 Yeah. So yeah, I don't care. But it could be good. I'd be happy to see another take on this, sure. guy with the trident from the hunger games trident boy oh sure yeah trident boy yeah yeah so yeah i don't care but could be good i'll be i'd be happy to see another take on this sure yeah and do you think it's going to be wildly self-aware or not self-aware at all the other one was wildly self-aware mason if you recall correctly wasn't it but at the same time was blissfully unaware and boring and boring yeah mcgee yep he did do that i I think he passed on a Superman movie to do those. Probably for the best. Good for Superman. Next up is Sonic.
Starting point is 01:20:09 Weird legs. Do you think they were planning on releasing a trailer when they released that poster and they went, oh no, people hate this. Yes. And then, let's just pull back on this a bit. Yeah, let's redo the CGI for this entire movie. Yeah, that's it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:20 So, what and why? What is this movie? Why? What's happening? Is it going to be Roger Rabbit or is it going to be Chipmunks? Alvin and the Chipmunks, you know? Mystery movie. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:31 Mystery in a good way? No. Like a bad mystery. Like a bad mystery. Like a box full of poo. Exactly. With a question mark on it. Yeah, who left the box here?
Starting point is 01:20:38 Was it the Riddler? It does have a question mark on it. Kingsman the Great Game is a World war one prequel okay i'm willing to give this another go me too because one is good and two is not good so that's 50 that's pretty good and if we if we work backwards chronologically that means the prequel is going to be amazing that's right good point yeah i don't know if we work back logically prequels are almost never good oh my god do you think anyone from this movie is going to be frozen and brought into the modern day or their great-grandson is going to have an eggsy adventure?
Starting point is 01:21:11 An existential... Oh, adventure. Adventure. An existential egg-ven-egg. Yes. It's so hot in here, Mason. It really is ridiculously hot. I am dying.
Starting point is 01:21:22 It's insanely hot. Should we open a door? Yeah, let's open the windows again. Okay, let's open the windows again. I think that guy's stopped doing the thing. Oh, my God. I'm fading fast. Okay.
Starting point is 01:21:36 My God. I'm sweating through this bloody tea. And it's not a bloody Mack Weldon, Mason. I'm not happy about it. That t-shirt's not a bloody mack weldon mason i'm not happy about it that t-shirt's not anti-mic and naturally anti-microbial t-shirts smeared in feces shouldn't have worn it what do we got kingsman anyway now give it another chance okay so who's a character mike's a little too far away yeah bring a little closer okay who's a character who could conceivably still be alive like who'd be i reckon probably mark Strong's character could be alive in the
Starting point is 01:22:05 World War 1 in World War 1 and then he gets frozen because that's why he's always there oh yeah or he gets and again
Starting point is 01:22:11 the problem with these movies now is you can just have a serum or a patch that does anything don't they freeze Channing Tatum because he gets
Starting point is 01:22:18 the marijuana disease yeah so this might exist I reckon maybe they or he gets a serum that makes him immortal or something you know that's why he's been around because he's the one constant isn't he I don't yeah until he exploded yeah yeah so this might exist i reckon maybe they or he gets a serum that makes him immortal or something you know that's why he's been around so because he's the one constant isn't he i don't
Starting point is 01:22:28 yeah until he exploded yeah but i don't think colin firth will be in the first one maybe young colin firth no world war one okay then not and we've seen his origin and yeah that's true he's not from world war one yeah that's true i reckon so it's mark strong he's still he's in this i reckon none of them but this i mean there's a man who can be cured from being shot in the head. So it doesn't really matter. They can do anything. Frozen 2. Oh.
Starting point is 01:22:51 You've seen the first Frozen? So Mark Strong's Frozen 2. Correct. Yeah. Do you like Frozen? I've never seen Frozen. It's okay. People kind of hate on it because it's so popular, but it's okay.
Starting point is 01:22:58 It's good. I'm getting tagged in a lot of, there's a video going around Facebook and it's a man with a beard and he's dressed as one of the characters in Frozen and he's dancing with his daughter, I think. Okay. To Frozen, to a song from Frozen. And people are saying, is this you? Yeah, they're saying it's me. Is it you? That's not me. So you're not dancing with a girl? Just kidding, it is me. Knives Out is next and I bring up Knives,
Starting point is 01:23:17 I bring up Knives Out because it's... Name of a radio hotel? Is it? Yep. Great. Never really got into them. Alright. Big fan? Yeah. Great. Not everything. Yep. Not everything. Yep. Not everything. You like OK Computer?
Starting point is 01:23:28 I love OK Computer. OK, good. I love The Bends. The Bends? Then there's a brief period that I don't really care for. Yep. And then later it's pretty good again. OK.
Starting point is 01:23:37 OK. This is Rian Johnson's next movie. Hell to the Thief is when I come back in. All right. Rian Johnson's next movie. Star Wars, Rian Johnson. OK, sure. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:44 So I'm always interested to see what he does yeah i'll be interested to see if he brings the massive star wars fan base to his own movies no no definitely not okay i think this will be do as well as like a looper and we did okay yeah interesting because i would have thought because a lot of people hate that movie well that's what i'm saying i'm saying that that the feedback from The Last Jedi is so... Positive. No, but it's so powerful that I would imagine there are some people who are like, I'm never watching a Star Wars movie again.
Starting point is 01:24:15 And some people are like, well, I'm going to watch every Rian Johnson movie forever now because... Okay, yeah. I don't think he's a big-name director, even though he's known. He's not like a Spielberg level, where you're like, well, this is the next Spielberg. What if they say from the director of The Last Jedi? Yeah, that may... All the bits you liked.
Starting point is 01:24:31 Yeah, the throne room scene. Yep. The casino bits. No. The bit with the casino. It's not as good that bit. From the guy who directed the bit in the casino in The Last Jedi. They shouldn't put that in.
Starting point is 01:24:43 Yep. Yeah. And the director who tells you that war profiteering's bad. He's really taking a stance there. Good on him. In December, then, we've got Jumanji 3. Jumanji! Welcome back to the jungle.
Starting point is 01:24:56 They recently announced some cast members, and I went, oh, yeah, but I can't remember who it is. Okay, cool. Danny DeVito, I want to say. I think it might be Danny DeVito. Yeah. Sure. The last one to say. I think it might be Danny DeVito. Yeah. Sure. The last one was fun.
Starting point is 01:25:07 I agree. And this could actually do some damage because soon after that, we've got Star Wars 9. I think Jumanji 3 could actually eat into Star Wars. Yeah. I went into Jumanji 2 thinking, oh, this is going to be a chore. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:19 This is going to be somebody who doesn't understand video games, having some kids thrown into a video game, but they got, I mean, it was the, it was like a previous generation of video games, which I think is why it worked.
Starting point is 01:25:30 Yeah. Cause they weren't loot boxes. They weren't loot boxes. Exactly. Well, I guess it makes sense because the, in the movie, the,
Starting point is 01:25:36 the previous generation was stuck in that video game. Yeah. Generation of video games. That makes sense. Yeah. And at the end, Colin Hanks was there and he was totally metal. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:45 He's good. Yeah. And then, oh, Star Wars nine. Uh, again, we've talked this to death. of video games yeah yeah that makes sense and at the end Colin Hanks was there and he was totally metal if you recall yeah he was good and then oh Star Wars 9 again we've talked this to death yep what is it I'll probably watch it if I'm honest with you I'll probably watch it
Starting point is 01:25:54 there'll be a trailer in Star Wars Celebration in April that'll give us a better idea of where they're going with this because currently we do not know is there time travel
Starting point is 01:26:01 is the Emperor back as a clone is that time travel tree there yeah and then afterwards because the kind of cap off the year is cat who was darth plagues you know what i mean who was he he's just some guy some guy it's pretty much some guy uh cats the movie the movie adaptation of the play cat right incredible how's that gonna look shit well yeah but i mean in what way specifically i think james Corden's in it. I think Taylor Swift's in it. So is it going to be... Because, you know, the play cats, it's people in the cat suits, funny colored cat suits.
Starting point is 01:26:33 Yes. So it's not going to be that in the movie. It's going to be animated real cats, right? Yes. Okay. Do you want some names for this? Yes. Taylor Swift.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Okay. Idris Elba. All right. Jennifer Hudson. Oh. Ian McKellen. Oh. Idris Elba. All right. Jennifer Hudson. Oh. Ian McKellen. Oh. Jason Derulo.
Starting point is 01:26:48 Jason Derulo. James Corden. Judi Dench. Rebel Wilson. There's some good names in this. There you go. And some not as good names. Not interested.
Starting point is 01:26:58 And this is a musical then? I always hated Cats, even though I've never seen it. But it is directed by the guy who made Les Mis, the movie adaptation, which I quite liked. So make of that what you will, Mason. Blah-de-rah-deh. Also, it's going to be singing cats. Yes. I never...
Starting point is 01:27:13 I always... Even as a kid, I was like, what the fuck is this? Now, I haven't seen Cats. No, you never. Okay, I was going to say, is it melodramatic? Yes. Okay, so it's not like we're taking this deadly seriously and we're cats i think because otherwise it's gonna have to be deadly serious and then cat makeup deadly serious
Starting point is 01:27:30 songs sung by cats and everybody looks like beast from x-men origin but that's what i'm saying isn't it just gonna be cats like it's not gonna be people are you making literal cats yeah no because it can't be how they look in the movie because that's alien like the idea the idea behind the theater version is we're supposed to go okay they are cats but obviously they can't dress they can't put them into giant fuzzy cat suits so they're physically the same shape as cats i think that's what it is that's crazy hang on sorry but hang on i'll find out okay so there's plans for an animated adaptation we're in the 90s they're abandoned. 2013, Andrew Lloyd Webber, creator and composer, purchased the film Adaptation Rights.
Starting point is 01:28:09 In 2015, 2016, Tom Holland was on a board to direct. Tired of looking for technical aspects of how the film would be entirely live action or computer generated or a mix of both. Also announcing they'll be writing new songs for the film. That's never a good idea. It doesn't say i think it's going to be people in cat makeup but a mix of cgi i don't know that sounds horrendous because the like the if you put what you see on the rule if you put the cats if you put what you see on the stage into the movie, then it's just weird alien, like it's Thundercats. I agree.
Starting point is 01:28:48 And then do they interact with humans? I don't know. You'd be like, what the hell's that? Because they'd be little as well, aren't they? They'd have to be little. They'd be little. You'd be like, what is that? There's a new song about a man swatting a whole bunch of cat people creatures to death
Starting point is 01:29:04 with a shovel. That's the new song about a man swatting a whole bunch of cat people creatures to death with a shovel. That's the new song. Sounds great. It's called Have I Died and Gone to Hell. There's weird cat monkeys in the alley behind where I work. That's what it's called. Are you going to say this? I'll say it just for that.
Starting point is 01:29:23 I mean, that's not going to be a thing in the movie. I will absolutely not see it. No, why would I see it? I don't know, because it could be funny. I guess so. Yeah. Anyway, those are all the movies. We've definitely missed some.
Starting point is 01:29:33 Yeah, we will. Oh, we have. Okay, here's what we'll do. You're going to pick one movie you have to see, everything else you can't see. What do you pick? Ooh, probably Endgame. Same.
Starting point is 01:29:43 Wait, how long can I not see it forever? Ever. Yeah, Endgame. I agree. Yeah. I mean, I want to see Star Wars 9. Yeah. And I want to see Sonic the Hedgehog.
Starting point is 01:29:53 Yeah. Can people tell us about them? Yes. Okay. See, I feel like people could tell me what happens in Star Wars 9. Yeah, same. And I'd ultimately be okay with that. I'm going to say Elite of Battle Angel.
Starting point is 01:30:04 I have to see it have to see it nothing else luckily I will in a few weeks yeah that's true and I can take the rest of the year off
Starting point is 01:30:09 because I've seen my one movie that's alright perfect great but if people have a preference what is it?
Starting point is 01:30:14 I think if people were like yeah so in Star Wars it turns out that Luke's Rey's actually Luke's daughter and then
Starting point is 01:30:20 there's a big space battle and then there's the lights have a fight Snoke has robot legs he's got robot legs Snoke has a robot upper half that's right his space battle and then there's a lightsaber fight. Snoke has robot legs. He's got robot legs. No, Snoke has a robot upper half. That's right. His legs are his own.
Starting point is 01:30:28 That's right. His spirit went into his legs. I think I'd be okay with that. But I think if somebody described Endgame, I'd be like, I've got to see this. Oh man, I wish I saw all that space adventures. Yeah. Wouldn't you rather see like Cats
Starting point is 01:30:41 because then you could wait the whole year and you've got something to look forward to? Oh, that's true actually, yeah. Also, often the movie that I pick isn't my favorite movie of the year. you've got something to look forward to? Oh, that's true actually. Also, often the movie that I pick isn't my favorite movie of the year. So I'll probably be like, God damn it. I should have picked. Yeah, right. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 01:30:50 Whatever. But you never know, do you? It's too late then. Yeah. Yeah. What's a movie that you... Okay. What about this?
Starting point is 01:30:54 What's going to bomb and what's going to be the most successful? I think Hellboy's going to bomb. The most hard of everything this year? Give me another example. What could bomb harder? Besides the Duplo movie or whatever it was. Play movie. I think I'll do fine. The Lion King? That's Duplo movie or whatever it was. Play movie or whatever. I think that'll do fine.
Starting point is 01:31:07 The Lion King? That's not going to bomb. Of course not. But that would be a big bomb if it bombed. I think Alita Battle Angel looks expensive and could bomb. Right. Are we talking about versus the amount of money it costs to make? Oh, Dark Phoenix.
Starting point is 01:31:19 It's Dark Phoenix. It's definitely Dark Phoenix. Right, okay. I mean, it might not bomb but it'll it'll i don't think it'll do super well right i'm i'm to it i think solely in terms of the amount of money it brings in like apropos like just the movies out and how much money does bring in i think hellboy will make the least yeah even less than an x-men movie fair enough but i think it was probably it was definitely cheaper to make yes and they made it in prague or whatever do
Starting point is 01:31:40 you feel like you got a new lease on life with that window open yeah i feel much better yeah yeah which is why i wasn't i was going to skip this but now i feel like you got a new lease on life with that window open? Yeah. I feel much better. Yeah. Which is why I was going to skip this, but now I feel like I could. Mason, we've got to do some hate mail, but the hate has an H in it. Yes. Surprise. I'm reinvigorated. Now, this has got a specific topic this week.
Starting point is 01:31:56 I'm ready. There was a video on my channel earlier, which you may have seen or people watching may have seen, where we talk about some of the problems we have with the movie Glass. I forgot we made that video. Yes. I forgot we talked over it. Cause you didn't make it. I didn't make it either. No,
Starting point is 01:32:07 that's true. But now I forgot that we even mentioned it and then I popped up and I'm like, Oh, watch this. Yeah. So look, and look,
Starting point is 01:32:13 there's a lot of legitimate criticisms for the things that we talk about and counterpoints, which, which are absolutely justified. Disagree, but continue, but there's going to be, there's also some things in that movie.
Starting point is 01:32:24 Sorry. There's also some people who Have angrier opinions This will probably contain some spoilers for the movie Glass Yes But honestly Don't worry about it Don't worry about it
Starting point is 01:32:33 Look I haven't done it yet But I'm more than happy to spoil the movie Glass For anybody on the street Anybody who ran into If you see me Just say what's the twist I haven't seen Glass yet What's the twist
Starting point is 01:32:43 And I'll just tell you what the twist is Because I think this movie shouldn't do well. Well, it is. I think it should do much... I think the amount of money it's making should stop immediately. Because it's not good. I love how you're doubling down. That's great.
Starting point is 01:32:56 Do you want to move your mic a little closer? Yes. It's a little bit of a reverb there. What about now? But it will sound exactly the same because of my amazing audio techniques. Okay, this is from Luke Evans, not the actor. Oh, what's going to say? Maybe it is. Maybe it is though. Why am I not in glass?
Starting point is 01:33:12 I'm a good actor. I was in Dracula Untold. This movie is BVS. Not a legitimate criticism, but alright. This movie is BVS all over again. Amazing movie that needs you to think. Being destroyed by morons across the globe.
Starting point is 01:33:27 Shame. It's the smugness that gets me. Yes. It's the smugness. People are like, you didn't like this movie because you didn't get it. I did get it. There's nothing to get. You didn't like it because you don't understand plots.
Starting point is 01:33:41 Or did like it. Oh, you did like it. Exactly. You did like it because you don't understand how a plot works. Next up is. You don't understand how real people operate in the real world yeah but this is a comic book universe mason it's not though is it is it it's not okay arlo kilpatrick says six reasons mr sunday movies is an mcu fanboy and can't handle a different take on superheroes i love a different take what are the six reasons i don't know oh no just the one oh he's just given up that's it wow that's just yeah
Starting point is 01:34:06 wow I'd like to know more I wouldn't want to watch his videos hey here's six reasons oh I don't want to do it anymore I don't want to explain the effort that's also I've received a few of those
Starting point is 01:34:15 I'm like I can't be bothered explaining all the ways you're wrong maybe you should though mate starting starting to think you don't have any I love the BBS comparison
Starting point is 01:34:24 because like it's a super intelligent movie like Batman v Superman. Wow, yeah. It's a type, isn't it? It certainly is. Jack Carver says, wow, you guys stupidity know no bounds. Yes. Just a grammatical right there. Well, he was excited to type it.
Starting point is 01:34:40 Yeah, I could see that. I love that. Yeah. Good on him. Look, I do a lot of spelling errors. Don't get me wrong. But when I'm criticizing somebody directly uh yeah exactly i try to get my spelling uh uh sean k says well i couldn't just remove their anyone's memories because people born with physical powers brackets david dunn would just fucking find out again dumbass i didn't
Starting point is 01:35:01 think they were removing memories was that what the machine was supposed to do? No, no. I don't think they were. I think specifically they can't remove memories because it exists in the real world. That would make it a lot easier. Yes. And you wouldn't have to do the whole psychiatric evaluation because you could just hit him with a memory-removing ray.
Starting point is 01:35:18 Well, you mentioned before the show as well that even if they convinced David Dunn that he wasn't superpowered, he's still super strong. Like, he still knows how strong he is. Well, yeah. And even if he thinks his precognition isn't a superpower, he's still so good at it that he knows when people are doing crime. Yeah, well, I mean, I think we didn't address it
Starting point is 01:35:40 in the last episode or the video, and I feel we should have. A lot of people were like, well, the goal of the organization wasn't to kill these people. Yes. So you're idiots. The goal was to convince them they didn't have superpowers. And so they would no longer be a threat in society. Sure. And they're like, well, it nearly worked on Kevin.
Starting point is 01:36:02 Like he was nearly convinced. Yeah. But he wasn't convinced. Like, it didn't... You don't need to convince him because he's not supposed to get out. Yeah, right? You should just put him down because he's crazy. He eats people.
Starting point is 01:36:15 Oh, yeah, he eats people in Split. Yeah, I remember. But that's the thing. People are like, well, it almost worked. But it didn't work. It didn't work on 100% of the cases we see in the movie. And I would argue for two or three of those cases, would never work like with david dunn if you go hey david dunn you thought you were unbreakable and you had esp but actually you're just an
Starting point is 01:36:32 incredibly fit man and you've only got espn yeah exactly that's right and you have incredible intuition it's not going to stop him no like that's not going to stop him in the way they want like take him off the board so he's not a threat it's just like well i'll just use the powers that i have regard or my abilities regardless. If he just wants to keep fighting crime or, I don't know, track down a 10,000-year-old murder club, he's going to keep doing that. If anything, convincing him he doesn't have any superpowers,
Starting point is 01:36:55 that's going to give him a sense of vulnerability that will give him an edge probably. Probably carry a gun. Probably carry a gun. Same with Glass. If you say to Mr Glass, hey, superheroes don't really exist, it doesn't make him any less intelligent. It'll just change his focus to something else,
Starting point is 01:37:11 like just general terrorism maybe. Yes. You know what I mean? We're not finished with this segment. It's your bloody hate mail, mate. Yeah, I know, right? So you often read a Superman or like a superhero story and the main character loses their powers yep and then at the end and they're like what am i gonna do
Starting point is 01:37:30 because i don't have powers i'm no i'm no good to anybody anymore and then superman eventually realizes no he prevails anyway because he's like it's not about the powers it's about the man and you're willing to do what's right do i have a gun and i only mention this he doesn't have a gun but i only mention this because in this movie the key that shamalan seems to want to hammer home is the the most important part about being a superhero is the label if you're not labeled as a superhero you just give up yes like david dunn you you thought you're a superhero but you're not a superhero oh i guess i'm just gonna crawl into a ball and never leave my house again. No, you will. He's got a home security company.
Starting point is 01:38:07 That's true. He's got to go to work. He's got to get out there, man. He's got to unlock the gate. Anyway, you got more hate mail? I do. All right, I'm ready. This is from Andrew.
Starting point is 01:38:15 You guys have been brainwashed by the same superhero films being churned out by Marvel and DC that yous can't accept that this film is infinitely better. Watch it with an open mind and you will see the movie's brilliance. Oh, an open mind. Yes. They've done it again. They've done it again. Lewis says How about you guys stop fucking around? That's the entire premise
Starting point is 01:38:36 of this. I'll change my stance on literally anything else except that. That's right. Rodini says Glass is a masterpiece but if you didn't like it Disasterpiece. is a masterpiece but if you didn't masterpiece but if you didn't like it masterpiece very good but if you didn't like it is because you did not understood it incredible two more these actually came off the way you should go on the posters i feel typos and all just put those i think there's been three just put them up this one came off the
Starting point is 01:39:02 reddit which i really appreciate for the weaker planet reddit they do good work there they do I see what's going on ah no Mr. Sunday movie fuck you this is not DC or Marvel this is what a real world
Starting point is 01:39:13 superhero movie looks like and then Mr. Glass says D dude I think that might be an error people who aren't very smart can't understand
Starting point is 01:39:22 the MCU Sony and DC are for children this trilogy's complex dialogue and gritty storyline make makes kids scared and confused after watching mcu for years glass is a masterpiece for the gifted thinkers oh oh everybody thinks they're mr glass but they're not it's realistically it's people who are davidn, and you turn the shower on, and they flap around like a jellyfish. That was hate mail. Oh, we did it again.
Starting point is 01:39:50 It's where I read eight pieces of... I didn't explain it, but you get it. It's hate mail. People not liking a thing. But yeah, still, a lot of people did like that movie, and that's cool, man. So cool. It's absolutely fine. What are we reading?
Starting point is 01:40:02 What are we going to read? Oh, my goodness. I'm doing a thing. What are we reading today? Mason, I talked about RE4, 3, 2. 2, Resident Evil 2, yes. I said I was going to watch more Titans, but I only watched one. That's okay.
Starting point is 01:40:20 We'll talk about it another time. Get through it when you can and no rushing. It might take me a really long time. That's fine's fine i reckon you're bloody you're bloody love it all right i'll do more i reckon you'll be all in so i went away i had to do a bunch of work before i went away uh because it was way fluid so i couldn't uh so i i'm i apologize don't have to explain yourself to me i am mason though wow i mean i'd really like to talk about it as a friend but i guess we won't and And a mentor? Yeah, exactly. What are you reading?
Starting point is 01:40:49 What I was reading? I watched the Netflix Firefest documentary. Did you watch the other one as well? No, I didn't have Hulu. Yes, I didn't have that either. Yeah, but it's wild. It's a wild ride. So I should watch that?
Starting point is 01:41:00 I think so, yeah. I'm getting the Hulu one first. Yeah, apparently the Hulu one is more, I think there's more detail. Hulu hoops. Yeah, there's more Hulu hoops, obviously. Hulu hoops. Hulu hoops because it's required, contractually required. But I don't know. This was, it's just a fun wild ride.
Starting point is 01:41:17 Like I was aware of the, I was aware of the story of Fire Festival. Yeah, same. Yeah. But just putting, putting it all into an hour and change is pretty it's okay all right i'll do it so for anybody who doesn't know it's a it's uh it was a supposed super luxury music festival for the lifestyle for the elite that was put together by some dude and rapper ja rule uh and it was this huge disaster in terms of planning and one of the guys appears to have just it was you know it's just intended to it was it was just a huge cash grab yes thing so and isn't he going to jail i believe
Starting point is 01:41:52 he's going to jail he's been he's i think he's definitely on trial yeah yeah probably for all his crimes yes right um and i also watch i started watching schitt's creek have you seen that no is that good it is good so it So it's Eugene Levy. Oh, now I'm thinking of The Ranch. Yeah, right. See, there we go. They're both on Netflix. So there you go.
Starting point is 01:42:10 So it's basically, it's Eugene Levy from American Pie and all the Christopher Guest movies who created a show with his son, Daniel Levy. And it's basically, they're part of a formerly really, really rich family who their business manager stole all their money and the FBI seized all their assets. And so all they have left is a town they bought years ago as a joke. And so they have to live there now. They have to move there and move into a motel because that's all they have.
Starting point is 01:42:37 Wow, this has got some really good reviews. I've just kind of seen this on Netflix and been like, eh. Yeah, no, it's funny. It's those two. And Chris Elliott's in it. It's good. And it's basically, they're not terrible people. They've just been rich for so long
Starting point is 01:42:54 they don't understand the real world. Like us. Yeah, like us, exactly. And it's kind of like they bump heads with the good-natured rural people. The real people. The real people, exactly. The heartland.
Starting point is 01:43:04 Okay, cool. I'll check that out. Did I watch anything The real people, exactly. The heartland. Okay, cool. I'll check that out. Did I watch anything else? Oh, I saw The Mule as well. Was that good? I don't know if it's any good. Does Clint Eastwood have a threesome or not? He has two threesomes in that movie.
Starting point is 01:43:14 That's too many. Too many for a 90-year-old. I think if you have too many threesomes... How did you know about that? That's the only thing I know about that movie. All right, okay. But I think if you have too many threesomes, it fucks you up. I don't think it works.
Starting point is 01:43:23 It's good for you in the long term. Sure. I think your expectations get warped. For in general yeah no i understand um i also i don't think he's just jumping into threesomes as a a thousand year old man i think he's had a few leading up to this movie so basically it's the premise is and it said in the the poster said inspired by a true story two threesomes yeah right um but basically he's a very old man as as you might imagine. Yes. Well, they didn't de-age him for this? No, they didn't de-age him at all.
Starting point is 01:43:50 Even there's a flashback sequence. They didn't even really de-age him for that. But he's a very old man. He's been old for a very long time. That's true, yeah. When's the flashback from? Like 12 years prior. Then it's fine.
Starting point is 01:44:02 Yeah, yeah. You don't need to de-age him. And basically, he's uh you know he's been an absent husband absent father absent grandfather and he's like i gotta gotta gotta pay for my daughter's wedding reception of my granddaughter's wedding reception somehow okay so he gets uh a guy hands him a card and he's just hey just move some stuff across you're a you're a you're a very fastidious driver yes just move some stuff over the border in your car and we'll we'll give you

Starting point is 01:44:39 at some point or stream it or whatever if it shows up on a thing that I have yeah I don't know did you like Gran Torino? I'm on the fence about what like i mean because it's kind of like it's a lot i feel like it's a lot of like your kids kids these days kind of thing see i wonder about that too because there's a lot this movie has a lot of like oh you kid you're always on your phones and you blah blah
Starting point is 01:44:59 blah and i don't know if that's Clint Eastwood's stance on life. That's what I mean, yeah. Or if it's just like, okay, well, this character's a bit doddering and he says whatever he's thinking and that. Yeah, and it's supposed to be like, yeah, he's old and this is what old people are like. You can't tell. Bloody millennials probably.
Starting point is 01:45:16 Exactly. Or whatever, you know what I mean? Yeah. Barely have any threesomes. They're too busy. They're too busy on the Snapchats. I mean, they have threesomes in the sense that They've got two bloody jobs And always
Starting point is 01:45:27 Avocado toast That's good Mason Always on their phones Yeah I didn't know You were so up to date With current events I'm very up to date On current events
Starting point is 01:45:33 Next thing Letters Let's do letters It's so hot And I've got to edit this Alright This is coming out today The classic one was
Starting point is 01:45:38 Letters Oh letters We love you Some letters They're only A day Away I know they're only a day away I know they're here right now, we're gonna do letters Reach the show, weeklyplanetpod
Starting point is 01:45:52 At gmail.com For an email or hashtag weeklyplanetpod on Twitter And I've got some tweets here I'm ready to go This isn't from one particular person, I got this from a few They all wanted us to talk about Bill Maher's comments about comic books and oh yeah that's right i actually just watched it before this because it was like bill maher slams comic books i'm like i don't give a fuck yeah i don't care either but i saw i watched it for this and it's five minutes of being like you know the
Starting point is 01:46:16 problem with kids these days instead of reading charles dickens they're bloody playing video games and they're reading comic books and comic books aren't good they're for children and whatever and the thing about comic books is first of all shut the fuck up Bill Maher you fucking muppet well I mean the first the only thing I got from that
Starting point is 01:46:34 I think he said like you should probably stop reading stuff you read when you were 10 and I remember as like a tween I actually enjoyed the comedy of Bill Maher until I discovered that basically he's a he's never got any funnier
Starting point is 01:46:46 and he's just this hack who got famous because in the 80s, if you're in comedy, you've got a TV show. Yes. So, you know, and he's just coasted on that forever. Yeah. And I don't even know if he really believes any of this stuff. I think he's just like, this will get a rise out of people. And just, I don't know, I don't really want to talk about this,
Starting point is 01:47:04 but just to be like all comic books are for children and bad, that's like saying all books are bad. Yeah. Like, because with books, there's kids' books and then there's... Adult books. Adult books. And then there's very adult books.
Starting point is 01:47:15 And movies. Very adult books. Erotic thrillers. Yeah. And also with, you know, comedians, there's bad hacky comedians who do hacky bits and then there's better comedians. Well, that'sy bits. And then there's your better comedians. Well, that's exactly it.
Starting point is 01:47:26 And I feel like this is very much. There are some shit comics. Of course there are. There's a lot of them. Yeah. But also, yeah, like, he'd have to know that. Like, this is such a simplistic. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:37 I know. That's why. It's either an incredibly ignorant take or he simplified it just for, like, for hits. Yeah. That's why I feel kind of bad we're discussing it now. Yeah. Because it gets him any attention at all. Because he seems like a guy who's just grasping for attention all the time.
Starting point is 01:47:50 Yeah, because I don't watch his show. Yeah. And I'm watching this, I'm like, oh, this is such a fucking hack bit as well. Yeah. Just watching, I'm like, it's so tame and lame. I hate that kind of, the comedy I really don't like at the moment is older people going like, you know, your kids with your, like with the avocado toast and you bloody complain about it.
Starting point is 01:48:10 Shut up. Exactly. Like, it's just not even clever. It's like you with your gender pronouns and your, shut up. Just shut up. Yeah. It's not interesting. Be more interesting.
Starting point is 01:48:19 Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. Because it's not even like, if again you you can joke about anything but give us a fresh take it's it's not the it's not the content oh it's not the it's not the premise it's the hackiness of it yeah if you're just going to go like these people want gender pronouns well i'm a helicopter or whatever it's not a it's terrible it's not a take it's the worst take anyway yeah but he's no good yeah and just even, sorry, you're collecting your action figures.
Starting point is 01:48:46 Oh, sorry, collectible items. Yeah. Good, good work, man. Great stuff. Incredible. You probably didn't even write it. Yeah, for sure. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:48:55 I don't. So I guess in summary, just like what you like and who cares what him or anyone thinks. It doesn't matter what Bill Maher says because you can just not watch that. Yes. As I didn't. Yes. This is a letter from Grant Weaving. Okay.
Starting point is 01:49:10 I won't spoil the subject line, but it's a good one. I was out one night very drunk, the good kind of drunk, and a police car pulled up and offered me a lift home. It was raining like a geostorm outside. Wow.
Starting point is 01:49:20 I wouldn't know because I've never seen a geostorm. Oh, because there wasn't one. There wasn't one. There wasn't one. There wasn't one in the movie. Okay. Being the cheeky drunk I was, I connected to the car's Bluetooth and played the Best Of show.
Starting point is 01:49:30 Nice. Our show. The policeman then called me a dickhead and he turned around and said, got him. It was the most pleasant police ride I've ever had. So the subject line, my local police officer is a whacker to do. Yes. We got him. Now we've got the police on our side.
Starting point is 01:49:42 Finally. So that's from Grant and John, the local fuzz. Great. That's really cool. Pretty good. That's presumptuous to be like, I'm going to put this on in a police car. That could have ended very badly.
Starting point is 01:49:53 I know. In a beating. Yes. This is from Parker Millican on Twitter, hashtag weeklyplanetpod. One of my most anticipated movies this year is Taika Waititi's Jojo Rabbit. It's a World War II film where Taika plays Hitler.
Starting point is 01:50:08 Scarlett Johansson is also in it. I haven't seen any of this movie. I do know the premise, that part of it at least. Yeah, I'm really interested in this. Not just because of that premise, but because I like all of his films and I think he's really funny. Yeah, for sure. So, yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:23 So, I didn't mention that in the list. But it's on the list. We missed a lot of smaller films. You said he's really funny. Yeah, for sure. So, yeah. So I didn't mention that in the list. But it's on the list. We missed a lot of smaller films. You said we were going to... Yeah, exactly. I said earlier that I was going to pick an indie film that made me look clever, but I forgot to think of one. No, it's too late now.
Starting point is 01:50:35 Oh, no. Maybe I'll think of one next week. You should watch Roma. But to be clear... Yeah, Roma. I should watch Roma. This is from Drew. Okay, Drew.
Starting point is 01:50:42 He was scrolling through Netflix on the weekend and saw they'd adapted Dark Horse's polar comic with Mads Mikkelsen. Yeah. I've heard mixed things about this. I got a tweet here from Ghostface on the same thing. Before we get to that, Drew says, it's not perfect by any stretch. That makes a lot of sense. There's some scenery chewing,
Starting point is 01:50:58 and it's a little derivative of John Wick, but apparently the colour palette and the cinematography is great and Mads Mikkelsen does a terrific job great I've got here that it's based on a comic and it's really not good it's bad John Wick, horrible action, dub lines and over the top at it's worst
Starting point is 01:51:13 that's something I think I could put on while I edit probably even while I edit this podcast yeah let's put it on right now as we finish off the show let's do it are you interested in that? yeah kind of I like Mads Mikkelsen I also like Mads Mikkelsen
Starting point is 01:51:23 I saw the trailer and I thought it looked good. Or interesting. And now I have two different opinions. And maybe I'll have an opinion also. Do you think Mads Mikkelsen could play a character who's not a psychopath? No. Give him a whirl though? Actually, he did in Rogue One. Oh yeah. But he built a giant laser that blew up a planet.
Starting point is 01:51:39 Yeah, I feel that's an essential element. Could you put him into like a Matthew McConaughey style romantic comedy? Where he's a beach dude. A cool beach dude. Yeah, he's a cool beach feel that's an essential element. Yeah. Could you put him into like a Matthew McConaughey style romantic comedy? Where he's a beach dude, a cool beach dude. Yeah, he's a cool beach dude. No. Okay, then. It's the accent.
Starting point is 01:51:50 He's too sinister. What if he puts on an American accent? He couldn't do it. I think it'd be weird. I think people would see that and kill themselves if he did it. Do you think you could sit through Mads Mikkelsen doing a Benedict Cumberbatch? Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 01:52:03 American accent. Yes. He's probably good at American accents. Yes. Yes. American accent. Yes. He's probably good at American accents. He probably is. Yeah. Anyway, Drew says, can I be the official Peter B. Parker of the podcast? Oh.
Starting point is 01:52:12 Probably he's already been a Peter Parker. Yes, there has. Absolutely. Peter B. Parker, absolutely. From a different universe. Yes. That's the show for this week, Mason. Yes.
Starting point is 01:52:19 Wrap it up so I can go to a cooler room. Nice. We can all go to a cooler room. Yeah. Death. It's the cooler room. Because at the bottom of hell, it's very cold. Is that true? Yeah. Nice. We can all go to a cooler room. Yeah. Death. It's the cooler room. Because at the bottom of hell it's very cold. Is that true? Yeah. In Dante's Inferno
Starting point is 01:52:29 the bottom level is very cold. I've never been to. Because it's furthest from the sun. That actually makes a lot of sense. Yeah, that's right. Anyway, thanks everybody for listening. Even to that bit. Never thought about that. That would be true though, wouldn't it? Yeah. In a world where we don't know that the core of the earth is very hot. Yes. I've seen the movie The core with hillary swank where haven't we all i haven't
Starting point is 01:52:49 uh thanks everybody for listening and telling a friend and uh bloody giving us a nice review on the itunes we very much appreciate it's very cool yeah that's great that itunes stuff really helps yeah and telling people helps even more and ringing the bell on a little youtube video yeah man ringing that bell whatever that does. Does it do a thing? Yeah, it gives you an alert when it comes up because often when you post a YouTube video, it doesn't tell people. Oh, right, okay.
Starting point is 01:53:13 It just doesn't appear in their subscription feed. Oh, interesting. Okay, so that's for telling other people. That's not for telling you. No. That's alerting the general YouTube population. That's fun. Yes.
Starting point is 01:53:22 Okay, it's like a red alert situation. Yes. More people would ring it if it a red alert situation. Yes, it's like the game alert. More people would bring it if it said red alert. You know? Amber alert. Amber alert.
Starting point is 01:53:31 I get you, man. I hear you. Yeah, nice. That's good. Anyway, give James the old YouTube amber alert. What do you got?
