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.
Thank you.
And to answer the question that you posed as the theme was playing, you haven't changed
the theme song yet because you love it.
I do love it.
Yeah.
That's obviously part of it.
That's right.
Because if I didn't, I would have done something about it.
Yeah, that's right.
It's like, you know, you're a kid and you've raised them wrong and they're still living
with you when they're, you know, they're in their early 40s and you're like,
I love them, but what do you do?
That's exactly right.
Yes, precisely.
You shoot them.
What?
That's right.
Wow.
Anyways, of course, if you are here for the Snyder Cut stuff,
we are going to get to that, but there are time codes,
as there always is, in the description.
Yes, Mason, big news.
I've rebranded as the guy who doesn't know what the justice league
snyder cut is terrific it's going to be like this for 12 months minimum god just kidding i know what
it is uh the internet won't let me not know what it is no people are still telling me like in like
i'm getting youtube comments that uh like i've got old justice league videos that are like guess
what they're doing the sny Cut. Yeah, I know.
I also saw that news a week ago. As someone on the forefront of superhero movie news,
I am aware of that, you say to them.
Yeah, anyways, we'll get to it.
We're also going to talk about the Tenet trailer,
the Old Guard trailer, some Star Wars news, Mason.
Oh, my goodness.
Jurassic World stuff.
Batgirl has left.
You mean Batwoman?
Yes, Mason.
Okay.
Yes.
All right.
And then some other stuff, obviously.
Yeah, just so people know.
But let's start with the Tenet trailer.
I still don't know what's happening in that movie.
I think that's a good thing, though.
I nearly didn't watch it off the back of like,
I don't really want to know what's going on,
but at the same time I'm like, oh, no, this is your job, I think,
to watch this.
So people want to know that you've seen it.
And did you garner any more information, really,
about this movie based on that?
All I know is it seems like there's a couple
of backwards boys getting up to mischief.
That's what it seems like to me.
Backwards boys getting up to mischief.
So, yeah, look, clearly it's not time.
It feels like a Bangers and Mash style
children's book series.
The backwards boys, they're always getting into trouble.
They're wearing matching like dungarees
and their mum's always like, backwards
boys, get in here.
No, not backwards, boys.
They're always running down the street backwards
stealing apples off carts.
Or returning apples off carts.
Maybe that's what they're doing, yeah. And the PC
plods there and he's all like, well, I'd
arrest you boys, but technically you've done a
public service, so I can't arrest you.
Anyway, I don't know what this movie's about still.
I'd kill you if I understood how you did it, but I don't.
Or how killing works in this universe.
I don't even, would I be making you live forever?
I don't know.
But yeah, I don't.
It's not time travel.
It's some kind of time manipulation, obviously.
There's enough intriguing stuff in here that I'm 100% on board.
Yeah, and look, I have no doubt that, like Inception,
we'll have some spectacular, interesting opening sequences
and then they'll bring in probably a point-of-view character,
probably the main guy, and they'll be like,
here's how your powers work.
This is how you turn it.
And it will be very straightforward from that point.
But until then, they're good at knocking up a trailer
that makes it look like we still don't.
They're taking bullets out of that wall.
What are they up to?
Yeah, there's a lot of taking bullets out of the wall,
catching a gun backwards.
Robert Pattinson is Christopher Nolan, I think, in this.
Seems that way.
Yeah, it's also a bit of a...
But it's often tricky to say because it's oftentimes characters
in Christopher Nolan movies are just people who dress
like Christopher Nolan.
Well, that's it, isn't it? But in this's it seems to be dressing like him acting like him if you
look at Tom Hardy from Inception there's a bit of that kind of that old school kind of British
finesse and a flamboyance wearing a scarf there's that kind of stuff I think honestly I think it
looks great I don't know whether it's going to be any good I mean I think at the minimum it's
going to be good right it's going to save the movie industry so well maybe it is but the thing
is about this movie it doesn't say the release date is in July as of yet oh yeah I'm not it's going to be good, right? And it's going to save the movie industry. Well, maybe it is. But the thing is about this movie,
it doesn't say the release date is in July as of yet.
Oh, yeah.
It's July 17th. But it did say coming to cinemas.
Very bold.
I think that's 100% locked in at this point.
I don't think Christopher Nolan would be entirely happy
if the movie studio kind of undercut him
and did release it to streaming or home release.
But I'm okay with that.
Like, let this be, even if we have to wait for it,
let it be a movie that ushers in cinemas reopening again,
even if it kills a bunch of us.
Oh, my goodness.
I guess, yeah.
It did remind me of the Red Dwarf episode backwards.
Yep, I'm sure.
So, like, if you walk into a room, because in this,
obviously, you walk into a room and you're like,
the bullets in these walls, this hasn't even happened yet.
Like, if you walk in and there's a puddle of vomit you're like
oh god no like which of us is getting this puddle of vomit yeah that's backwards boys for you though
and you look at and and then one of the characters looks at their hand and they've got like a can of
expired chili in their hand and a big spoon in the other hand and they're like, oh, this is definitely me. Oh, no.
I've made big mistakes.
But I wonder if you can go into a room and see what's going on and then kind of manoeuvre it to kind of manipulate the scenario
before it happens to play out a certain way.
Maybe, yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm really looking forward to it.
Would you be in favour of, and I know the movie isn't out yet
so we don't know if it's any good or not,
would you be in favour of some sort of Tenet Inception crossover movie?
Sure, why not?
Right.
So it's Backwards Dreams?
Backwards Dreams.
Yeah.
Within Dreams.
Oh, my God.
I think that's a bit too much.
You only need kind of one game-breaking element in a movie.
Okay, but I'm not.
Or it's also the Prestige Universe where everybody gets a clone.
Well, that's just a bit silly.
But how about like two teams?
One team can reverse time, one team can get into your dreams.
Which would you take?
And into your car.
Yeah, but if you get into your dreams, there's more subtle manipulation.
Wouldn't you rather be on the team that could flip a car backwards
and make you eat a pile of vomit?
Yeah, maybe.
Yeah, maybe.
I'd be on the backwards boys, mate.
Yeah.
Every day of the week.
Yeah.
Because the thing as well as in section.
You've got to knock them out.
Yeah. And there thing as well as Inception. You've got to knock them out. Yeah.
And there's too many layers.
Also, I feel like in the Tenetiverse,
if you've got that backwards operating power,
you're an independent operator.
Whereas in Inception, you're always relying on a bunch
of other team members to build the other elements of the dream.
Yes.
And one's always unreliable or on drugs or, you know,
they forgot that buildings have lamps
or whatever.
Buildings do have lamps.
Or didn't go to the toilet, which is a big plot point
of Inception.
Well, not a big plot point.
I think the trailer also ends really well.
Often a sting in a trailer isn't very good or it's like it's supposed
to be like a funny zing.
But in this one they look down at a sign, a freeway sign,
and go, nod, Noel.
That's just London backwards.
No, I've forgotten.
Refresh my memory.
It's the jumbo jet crashing.
Oh, that's right.
It looks real.
I think it's probably a giant miniature.
I'm guessing because they wouldn't be able to crash a real plane maybe.
Who knows at this point?
I think with Christopher Nolan stuff, you don't really know.
What if they're like, look, there are so many movies
that are currently on hold and they have so many permits
for stunts that aren't going ahead right now.
Yeah.
What if we cashed in all the stunt vouchers for one really big stunt?
That one's flying, so let's just crash one.
Let's just destroy an airport.
Yeah, I mean, you know, these airlines are hurting for cash,
but we buy one, we crash one.
Exactly.
Take that, Richard Branson.
That's right.
In other news, producer Frank Marshall says Jurassic World Dominion,
the Jurassic World movie slash sixth Jurassic Park movie,
is going to start a new era for Jurassic World and Park.
The other one just started a new era.
Oh, we're starting a new era.
All right.
Well, I guess the end of the last one started the new era. Yeah. So this is a continuation of the starting of the new era. This is how you start a new era. Oh, we're starting a new era. Alright. Well, I guess the end of the last one started the new era.
So this is a continuation of the starting of the new
era. This is how you start a new era. Or is the
status quo established at the end of the last one
immediately going to be solved and then there's going to be another
status quo established. Exactly. Like it's
like, oh my god, there are dinosaurs
in the real world now. It's alright, we penned them.
And now there's new Jurassic parks.
Oh, don't go into the Jurassic parks, they're gone haywire.
Maybe they're getting into more stuff.
Maybe they're getting into space.
Fridges.
Fridges.
Yeah, crawl spaces.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
They're tearing air conditioner units off walls.
You know what they're up to, those dinosaurs.
They've got hands, some of them.
It's true.
They're doing things, aren't they?
I am looking forward to Jurassic World Dominion 3.
Me too.
Park 6, but there you go.
But I'm prepared to not be really surprised or just blown away
in any real sense.
Yeah, because there's like, and it's not the same,
but you can download a green screen of a dinosaur on YouTube
and plonk it into a video.
It's not the same, obviously.
It's not the same, you're right.
But we're not wowed by seeing a dinosaur anymore.
That's true.
Thanks a lot, Hollywood. Yeah. Because when we eventually do get real dinosaurs, we'll be like. Yawn, you're right. But we're not wowed by seeing a dinosaur anymore. That's true. Thanks a lot, Hollywood.
Yeah.
Because when we eventually do get real dinosaurs,
we'll be like-
Yawn, I'll say.
Yeah, let's get the fuck out of here with that.
Nobody wants that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I feel like every few years they're like,
scientists are five years off cloning a dinosaur.
Yeah, are they?
Because you keep saying that, and yet there is no dinosaurs.
Yeah.
And don't give me this, well, you know, the dinosaur,
if you really want to see a dinosaur, look at alligators.
Fuck off with that.
I don't want to see an alligator.
I can see an alligator any time I want.
I've got one in my bathtub.
Are these the same scientists who promised a car that turns into a boat?
Every year we've been promised a car that turns into a boat.
I wouldn't use it, but I want to know they're out there.
That's right.
Yeah.
In other news, Mark Guggenheim,
who people might know from Arrow, Supergirl, DC's Legends of Tomorrow
He's writing the Jackpot movie for Sony
Oh, Spider-Man's Jackpot, okay
Yeah, what's Jackpot about?
So Jackpot was this...
Okay, so the premise of Jackpot was there was a Spider-Man storyline in which there was this new superhero called Jackpot
And she's like a very statuesque, red-headed character
Looks a lot like a masked Mary Jane.
And the whole premise was, is Mary Jane going out and fighting crime
and she's not telling Peter Parker about it?
Super power?
Yes, but I can't remember how.
In some sort of vague way.
Probably super strength.
Unchurched people and says jackpot.
Exactly, right, exactly.
Anyway, a bit of a twist.
It wasn't Mary Jane.
It was a woman in a wig.
Pretending to be Mary Jane?
No, not pretending to be Mary Jane, it was just a coincidence.
Yeah, right, okay, fair enough.
Well, that's really good.
So you're happy with the movie Jackpot going ahead?
I think so.
Not against it.
But I mean, okay, so the larger-
Sony's got to do what they can.
Okay, so I guess the thing is that the idea of Jackpot,
and oh my God, it's Mary Jane, that only really works on the comic page
because comic characters are kind of stylised looking. Yes. And a woman who looks kind of like Mary Jane, that only really works on the comic page because comic characters are kind of stylised looking.
Yes.
And a woman who looks kind of like Mary Jane could conceivably
be confused for Mary Jane.
Yeah.
But in the real world, I mean, if you got Zendaya as Jackpot
or a woman who looks like Zendaya as Jackpot, you'd be like,
it's not her.
No.
She looks different.
That's right.
And also the reviewer would be like, it's not Zendaya,
and you'd be like, yeah.
I mean, that's even to say that it would be.
I think they'd change it.
Yeah, I think they will.
And I guess the other big thing.
If it's the same universe even.
Yeah, and I guess the other thing about Jackpot is she's kind of a working mother as well.
Okay, right.
Maybe that would be the new element because we don't really get that besides the Incredibles.
We don't really have any.
Do we have any other working mother? No Incredibles. We don't really have any.
Do we have any other working mother comic book superheroes? No, not really.
In the movies?
No.
Right, well, maybe that's it.
I mean, all mothers are superheroes in my eyes, Mason.
Absolutely, that's right.
Yeah, but I said it first.
God damn it.
You just jumped on board.
Yeah, you took this week's work points.
Feels good.
Yeah, I don't know.
I would imagine that's going to be the twist
Also the idea of the name
Is of course that in Mary Jane's
First real appearance
She appears in the doorway to Peter Parker
And she's like face it tiger you just hit the jackpot
And that's why
We the audience go
Oh I get it that's the clue
But obviously
What if they aren't made it in the mcu
they did uh they don't made it and she was jackpot unmade jackpot yeah good single working
mother working mother perfect okay i like that yeah yeah that's all i'm saying jackpot and tom
tom holland's peter parker is also the kind of wide-eyed youngster who might be like that looks
like my mother but she's not mentioned anything about being a superhero. Exactly. So it must be someone else.
Now you're going to get emails.
She's not technically his mother, Mason.
Oh, yeah.
She's the aunt.
Classic error.
I've been in that error, haven't I?
I just thought I'd jump on that ahead of time.
I mean, somebody's already started to type the comment or email.
It is true.
And I've ruined their day.
Yeah.
But if you want to send it on through to him.
And I appreciate that because you could have chosen to ruin my day
and instead you chose to ruin probably dozens of other people's days,
which I like a lot.
It feels good.
Absolutely.
So, yeah, I reckon it's probably Working Mother deal.
Cool.
That would be good.
I think they'd probably do well to tie it into the MCU
with an existing character.
I think that would make sense.
Yeah, maybe.
But then again, also invent a new character and that's fine too.
Does that mean they're putting on hold Silver Sable, Black Cat,
all the other ones or are they just piling them up?
They're all happening right now.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, they're all currently spinning their wheels,
waiting for everything to open up.
The Old Guard got a trailer.
Did.
Coming to Netflix.
Dudley Dursley's in it.
Dudley Dursley's in it?
Yeah, Dudley Dursley's in it.
Who's Dudley Dursley? The actor. Dudley Dursley's in it. Dudley Dursley's in it? Yeah, Dudley Dursley's in it. Who's Dudley Dursley?
The actor.
Dudley Dursley.
Harry Melling.
Oh, I thought the actor's name was Dudley Dursley.
No, I mean the Harry Potter character Dudley Dursley is in the old cut.
But he's also in the Ballad of Buster Scruggs.
This guy's born in 1980?
He's older than me?
No, Dudley was born in 1980.
Yeah, he's born in 89.
I've got that was Dudley. Dudley was born in 1980. Yeah, he's born in 89. I've got that wiki up right now.
He's in,
if you've seen The Ballad of Buster Scruggs,
he is the actor that doesn't have any arms or legs.
Okay, I haven't seen it yet. Okay, right.
Actually, it was on Netflix the other day. It's always on Netflix.
And I was like, I should watch, oh no.
Okay then. Yeah. Because you know, sometimes
I just want to watch Dread while I edit, which is what I've
been doing. You're having a dread it.
It's exactly what I'm doing, Mason.
Yeah.
God, you've stolen some points back from me, haven't you?
No.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anyway, other people are in it besides Harry Melling.
Yes.
Charlize Theron.
Charlize Theron is in it.
Chiwetel Ejiofor is in it.
Love him.
And it's looking good.
Yeah.
I hope it's better than most Netflix stuff.
Like it's in that upper kind of echelon of things.
Yeah, when I said it looks good,
it looks good in the sense that there are people I know in it.
But also...
Was it made specifically for Netflix?
I think it was, but let me just check that out.
I also think it was.
Because sometimes they purchase things.
Like recently, which I'll talk about in what we're reading,
like the Lovebirds wasn't made for Netflix,
but it was bought by Netflix.
So let's see what we got here.
Blah, blah, blah.
It says here in March 2019, Netflix picked up worldwide rights to the film
and agreed to finance it with Skydance.
Okay, there you go.
So it's always been kind of a Netflix thing.
That's right.
There you go.
I look forward to it.
Whenever that comes out soonish, it seems that way, right?
Yeah.
July 10.
There you go.
There you go.
Timothy Olphant is going to be stomping his way.
Yes.
Like an olphant into the world of Star Wars.
Didn't we talk about this last week?
No.
Specifically the Mandalorian.
Okay.
He's going to be wearing the Boba Fett armor because he's the character Cobb Vanth from
the Aftermath series of books.
Oh.
Please explain who Cobb Vanth is.
I can't and I won't.
I'll wait until you read those books.
You can wait until we both die because I'm not going to do it. I haven't read them either. But Cobb Vanth is. I can't and I won't. I'll wait until you read those books. You can wait until we both die
because I'm not going to do it.
I haven't read them either. Now is this, before
we get into it, is this Legends or is this
Current Canon? This is Current Canon. Okay, right.
So this is a guy who finds
Mandalorian armor,
probably Boba Fett's, and then
he uses it to be like the sheriff of a small
Tatooine town. As a good guy? Yeah.
Also, but Timothy Oliphant's like 6'4",
so I'd imagine the arm is like pretty tight on him.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, sure, sure, sure.
Yeah, so that's where we're at.
I think that's great casting.
I mean, he's done Western-ish things before.
That's true, yeah.
He's probably done some sci-fi.
I don't know.
He was in the movie Go.
People remember that.
He was in the movie Hitman.
He was in the movie.
Oh.
He was in Santa Clarita Diet. Oh. Good show. He was in Deadwood. Let. He was in the movie. Oh. He was in Santa Clarita Diet.
Oh.
He was in Deadwood.
Let's name all the things because we'll get emails.
Justified.
He's in Justified.
Justified, exactly.
That's it.
We got them all.
We got everything he's ever done.
Yeah.
Anyway, I like him and I think that's great casting.
I think he'll fit right into that.
He's in The Office.
He makes an appearance.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
He's a sexy salesman.
Oh.
Do you remember that?
Not really.
Yeah, he is.
It's good.
He's good.
He's great and I think that's a good addition. What a sexy salesman in that in that show idris elba sexy salesman
in that white shoot sexy so sexy yeah yeah there are a lot of sexy salesmen i mean they try to make
him like schlubby and like working man everyday stuff yeah we see those jawlines yeah yeah yeah
yeah we know what you're up to uh before we hit hit the Snyder Cut, we've got to talk about Ruby Rose exiting Batwoman.
Oh, yeah, this is going to be a news-heavy episode, obviously,
because for those people who don't know,
I had a kid and I'm pressed for time and I'm very tired and I want to die.
And the Snyder Cut.
And the Snyder Cut.
Two big bombshells.
Two big things happening.
But Ruby Rose has exited Batwoman, the TV series, after one season.
There's been numerous reports and rumors about what's going on.
This is a show I have not watched.
I've also not watched it.
I know people are kind of mixed on it.
Look, I watched the episodes that involved the crisis on Infinite Earths.
So I've seen those ones, but the rest of it, I didn't watch the premiere.
I didn't watch any of the remaining episodes.
I think I remember being surprised
that she decided to do it, because when they said
Ruby Rose is Batwoman, I thought
it was for a movie. It surprised me that
she would do CW television.
Not that there's anything wrong with that,
but I'm saying that her kind of trajectory
was kind of going in a different direction
than Meg. The Meg. The Meg.
Essentially, yeah, she's doing movies,
you know.
John Wick 2, where she either lived or died which one remember john wick too yeah i think she
lived they fought on a train maybe and he hit her in the throat oh yeah sometimes he lets them live
that's true but variety of sets are pretty solid source this stemmed from an ill fit between the
star and the production uh the long hours led to friction. So, because if you're on one of these shows where there's 20-ish episodes a year and they're
an hour long, that's all you're really doing.
I mean, that's at least 20 hours of your life.
Exactly.
Making those shows.
That's how it works, right?
By that logic, yeah, absolutely.
But it's grueling hours, normally in Vancouver in the rain at night time.
And she probably wants to do other movies and TV shows
and it doesn't really leave a lot of room to do that.
And also, again, she did jump in to the CW,
sort of the larger Arrowverse,
just as they were doing the biggest crossover they've ever done.
So I imagine there's probably, you know,
in addition to doing her own show where she has to interact
with characters she's never met before,
also she'd have to be on other shows and be like,
listen, here's 10 characters and here's your relationships
with all the characters.
Now here's your lines and you've got to do karate.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
I think she looked the part as Batwoman.
Apparently they're looking for somebody else.
Stephanie Beatrice from Brooklyn Nine-Nine put up a tweet
and was like, I'm doing all my research into Batwoman
Yeah, absolutely, I don't mind that at all
but again, it's not a show that I
have watched
because I'm just not, I'm out of the CW
stuff because it's just too much for me
I've talked about it before, but I'm sure
they'll figure it out, won't they?
It's getting a second season, as these
things normally do, they don't normally cancel
them too early I mean, alternate's getting a second season, as these things normally do. They don't normally cancel them too early.
I mean, alternate theory, she was kind of a pain.
Yeah.
We're not to know.
Well, it just seems, though, that it was a clash.
And, yeah, I mean, and that happens.
And she was probably tied into three or four seasons,
but obviously it wasn't working out.
And you can exit stuff if you want to.
That's true.
If you have a big sook about it, you can get out of anything.
That's right.
Again, that's not what I knew what happened.
Who even knows?
As women, our life stages come with unique risk factors,
like when our estrogen levels drop during menopause,
causing the risk of heart disease to go up.

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+.
Ready for some Snyder Cut stuff?
Yes.
I feel like I was born ready.
Yeah, absolutely.
So during a Man of Steel watch through last week,
the Snyder Cut, or as it's now known, snyder's justice league is going to be released in
its entirety in 2021 deborah snyder said you can't release something like this theatrically but you
could do it with a streaming service what's so lovely about this is we get to explore these
characters in ways that you're not able to in a shorter theatrical version i see and at the moment
they're not really sure what form this will take.
It could be a miniseries.
It could be a four-hour movie, which they mentioned before Justice League
came out that that was kind of the length they were currently working with
and they had to whittle it down before.
Obviously, there was that family tragedy and he stepped aside.
Slash, maybe they were going to replace him anyway, I feel as well.
Yeah, right.
How do you feel about this, though?
Look, first big piece of news, obviously,
is that in that initial watch party,
guest Henry Cavill was there and he was wearing a blue tank top.
Guns out.
Sun's out, guns out.
Sun's out, guns out.
Absolutely.
He's looking good.
Looking great.
Yeah.
And he seemed in good spirits.
Absolutely he did, yeah.
I mean, it was kind of hinted at during the week
that this was going to be unveiled,
but it also seems that this was more of a recent thing
that was going to happen.
And it's obvious that this is only in reaction to,
well, not only the massive kind of fan outpouring,
because apparently it's the most tweeted about Warner Brothers movie,
despite it not actually being a movie that has been released.
I could believe that.
Yeah.
I've seen Twitter feeds of people. people absolutely and they're just anybody from hbo
max anybody from warner brothers every single tweet is just that's what they get fired back
it's like we just like to announce the birth of our ceo's new daughter or whatever and they're
like release the snyder cut we'll kill the baby we'll kill you release the snyder cut yeah so i
think it's really interesting i think it's i don't necessarily
think it's going to set a precedent i think this is a scenario that it's entirely likely won't get
replicated for other things which which we will talk about because we're in the middle of a
pandemic yes it's a new streaming service where they need content which is very difficult to make
at the moment yeah this is something four hours of footage exactly somewhere this is something that is existing already that is unfinished yeah that they can then make into
something which will result in massive subscribers yeah potentially that's the thing if if you love
this and you want to see it yeah and you want to see more versions of things like this you need to
pay for it essentially yeah you know what i mean? And I guess I think maybe we talked about it a few weeks ago, like the idea that during this pandemic, you know,
maybe it would increase the number of animated movies.
Voice acting can be done at home.
Animation can be done at home, that sort of thing.
And I guess this is similar in that they have so much footage
and they can add more dialogue remotely.
They can finish visual effects remotely.
They've got four hours of, again, we don't really know what it is no it my guess would be it's some completed stuff
and some green screen stuff yes and some animated storyboards some black and white photos from vero
that's exactly right yes no i i think that's exactly what they're gonna do the thing where
they just animate the lips yeah maybe get henry Cavill to put his phone up to his mouth
and just be like, I'll defeat you, dark side.
But here's the thing.
Yes?
The cast is returning apparently in voice only.
They're not allowing the budget, which is apparently about $20 million
to $30 million.
Is that confirmed or what's the deal?
Yes.
So the cast will return in voice for additional ADR.
I guess if you had an entirely CGI Superman,
you could have him saying things from a distance
and it wouldn't be that noticeable.
Hey, come catch me.
Let's play hide and seek.
But the thing is as well, when you look at this for HBO,
it makes more sense for them to release it
than Warner Brothers to release this theatrically.
Releasing a movie to cinemas four years after the original one came out,
there's no sense to that.
They would not make any money back from it.
That's right, yeah.
It may do well on streaming or DVD sales potentially,
but this is the best version of this.
The reason they're making it is because this will probably make money.
Yeah, exactly.
That's the idea, yeah.
And I guess, you know, if let's say they give Zack Snyder $30 million
to finish this and then they get several million subscribers,
they announce it, they get several million subscribers to HBO Max
at however much it is per month, $10 million per month,
then they've covered it essentially.
Immediately, exactly.
Yeah, that's all you need to look at it as.
And also you're not making something from scratch, as mentioned.
You're finishing an existing thing.
The bones of it are already there. And's and the reason you can make this obviously is because it can be done on
computers in isolation you don't need to get in isolation have you heard of that i've heard yeah
the thing about this is as well this isn't the original cut and i'm not saying that's a bad
thing and i'm not trying to criticize people who are like say the original cut what do you mean i
mean the version that zack snyder do you mean? I mean the version that Zack Snyder originally intended.
Because, first of all, the version that he was going to do
before Warner Brothers kind of stepped in between Batman v Superman
and him filming it, they did make changes to what he wanted to make.
Apparently it was a bit out there.
And what he filmed, first of all, he never completed,
didn't get the opportunity to.
And now he gets to go back and through hindsight and through
some redubbing of dialogue and adding extra scenes through cgi and whatnot hey come catch me yeah
exactly this is going to be an entirely new vision it's not what he was making before yeah it's not
the version that was released in cinemas and he can look back and go oh people didn't really like
that character oh but you know what they did like? They wanted to see more of Cyborg.
Well, I can add those scenes back in.
I can add more elements of that.
People didn't really like this character, but I don't care what they think, so I'm keeping it in.
Well, that's it.
That's it.
So this is, it is his vision, but it's his vision with the element of hindsight and extending everything and adding extra stuff.
and adding extra stuff.
And it's kind of an artifact as well because it's like it isn't, okay, well, there are going to be subsequent movies in this universe
and you have to say make it, you know, you have to add this plot point
and this plot point and this plot point and these teasers
for the next movie or whatever.
This is the be-all.
To some degree, unless it's wildly successful,
this is the be-all and end-all of this.
So technically he can make it go
anywhere he wants he could change the yeah the plotting he could have everybody die at the end
yeah it honestly doesn't matter you know well that's it yeah this could very well be and there's
been talk of this that this is this is a closed universe after this yeah right and look i don't
doubt that at this point but if the reception to this is very positive yeah then we could
potentially see more of this and i think even if it's bad which by the way it could be sure it's
entirely possible i mean i'm pretty mixed on batman v superman and i know you're the same
please send your tweets and comments on that but there's a lot of people who love this universe
and there's a lot of people who do not. Universally, nobody likes Justice League.
I had fun with it.
I think it's fine.
It's not great.
It's whatever to me.
Again, you can go back and listen to the old episodes if you like,
but on balance, I feel like Justice League is the worst DC EU movie.
I feel like it's – I think I have bigger issues with something like Batman v Superman regarding characterisation or plot or what have you,
but at least it's got...
And we're going to cover all the Snyder DC movies in Caravan of Garbage.
Well, that's the thing, we should mention that here,
because, yeah, over the next few weeks,
we're going to be doing Man of Steel, Batman v Superman,
the Joss Whedon, Zack Snyder Justice League.
Surprise!
I have many large issues with characterisation and blah, blah, blah
in Batman v Superman,
but at least there's some memorable action sequences.
It looks great, all this sort of stuff.
But for me, Justice League is still the worst one
because I can't think of a single scene that stands out in it for me.
You remember you should probably move, but it's not even in the movie.
Maybe that'll come back.
It's definitely coming back.
Oh, my God, I will stand up and cheer.
I'll be by myself in my house i'll be like um but you should feel my reaction to that when it happens could you please do that i'll try my best um but yeah i feel like again a movie that i didn't
like uh batman v superman at least it took some swings and there's some positive stuff in it but
justice league it was the fifth movie that had so much, that had a chance to, you know, steer it back in the direction.
You're talking like when you include Wonder Woman
and Suicide Squad and whatever else.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I felt it was just not anything.
Yeah, I don't disagree with that.
That's its biggest crime is that it was just,
it's a very middling comic book movie.
And it cost $300 million.
$300 million, yes.
And so to me, as regarding the Zack Snyder cut of this,
the only way is up for me personally.
It might be bad in different ways,
but at least it'll be somebody going,
I have a definitive look for this
and I have a definitive case for what I want.
I have an idea for this universe.
You know that Flash time travel stuff?
I'm going to exploit some of that potentially.
That would be great.
No, I completely agree.
I think, look, and regardless of how you think this kind of came about,
of whether you think the fan reaction is unreasonable or not,
and I've got some articles and tweets I want to talk about in relation to that.
There's so many articles that came out this week.
This is something I genuinely want to see.
It's not something that I'm going to kill my grandmother to see.
Like if it never came out, that's fine. I i'm honestly okay with that but this is really interesting and very
unprecedented and again it's just because it happens to line up exactly with certain factors
in the world yeah which is the reason that we're getting this and i think that's really fascinating
yeah uh here's some this is just a tweet uh from someone with a handle television and movies.
Okay.
And look, there's no real evidence of this,
but here's some potential things that we can see in this.
I love seeing things.
Black Suit Superman could be in this.
Apparently it's in it, yep.
Darkseid could be in this.
Apparently Darkseid's in it.
Green Lantern could be in this.
There's been reference to that.
Martian Manhunter, so we might get General Swanwick.
I would say almost certainly.
From Man of Steel will be revealed as was suggested that he's Martian Manhunter, so we might get General Swanwick. I would say almost certainly. From Man of Steel will be revealed as was suggested
that he's Martian Manhunter.
Yes.
Unification of the League.
It says more major DC mythology.
What's Unite the Seven?
What's it mean?
Is it the seven Cs?
But again, is there going to be another member of Justice?
Maybe it's Martian Manhunter.
Maybe it is.
It's an entirely CG character that you could potentially put in.
Maybe they filmed some of that already.
We really don't know.
And that's kind of really compelling to me.
I wonder, though, if this is a massive success,
how will that parallel to the Robert Pattinson Batman?
I think people are smart enough to know, okay, there's Spider-Verse
and there's Tom Holland and there's Ben Tobey Maguire.
I don't think it's necessarily a big deal, but I think you're probably going to know, okay, there's Spider-Verse and there's Tom Holland and there's Ben Tobey Maguire.
I don't think it's necessarily a big deal, but I think you're probably going to get those two camps of people like, well, I'm Team Affleck and I'm Team Pattinson or whatever.
So there's going to be more screaming about this.
Yeah.
No doubt.
Yeah.
But the other thing about this movie is, and I don't know whether people will like this or even that Snyder will change this in hindsight, is he always said that this was intended to be a lighter movie than Batman v Superman.
Yeah, right.
So I think it's very possible that we will get the more jokier elements
from Justice League.
I don't think it will be to the extent of.
Yeah, right.
It's like, oh, I do bleed.
Whatever.
You remember that bit or whatever?
Yeah.
I've been hitting my balls, he says.
Yeah, there'll be less like flash reaction shots to things going on, I'd imagine.
But yeah, I think it's entirely possible
that this is lighter than people might like.
Or he might go, you know what?
People loved what I was doing with Batman v Superman.
I'm going to kind of toe that line for this.
Yeah, right.
You know what?
I feel like based on some fan reactions
from that movie and from justice league
if he's going to skew it one way or the other i think it's going to be dark and gritty yeah
because again like we you know but what are you working with though at the same time yeah because
you might not be able to to an extent just turn the contrast all the way down just make it dark
yes you're fair enough yeah yeah yeah um like he could release it in black and white maybe
yeah that would cover the weird the uh the promo images could release it in black and white maybe. Yeah.
That would cover the weird.
The promo images they've released have been in black and white.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I guess.
Look, and again, I feel like some of the louder voices in the world
have released the Snyder Cut.
Yeah.
What they want is very much in opposition to Marvel movies.
Yeah, sure.
Whereas Marvel movies are fun and goofy and lighthearted,
they want a grim, dark reality.
Which I don't have a problem with.
You can make different comic book movies.
Jonah Hex.
You can make that if you want.
You can make a sequel to that.
You can't make a sequel.
What you could do is just release Jonah Hex again
and call it Jonah Hex 2 and no one would know
because no one ever saw Jonah Hex 1.
So you can do that at home.
You can put a 2.
Yeah.
We can do it.
You'd be like, Thanos, Josh Brolin, Star of Endgame is Jonah Hex.
Jonah Hex 2.
Is he?
Wow.
Michael Fassbender's in this?
Apparently he is.
Let's sell it to Netflix tomorrow.
Yeah.
I think they're going to be, I think Zack Snyder is going to be like, if it's
going to go either way, he's going to be like the fans want dark and gritty. So let's, let's keep
that tone. I'm also, I'm not surprised, but do you think there's ever a chance or there was ever a
chance that they were going to release what he had unfinished? Because I think a lot of people,
not necessarily the general public, but people who wanted to see his version would have been happy with like a work print with unfinished special effects that's filled out with storyboards
and animatics i think to an extent they could have released that but that being said it probably
wouldn't have got the buzz for the general public because you could save money potentially by being
like here's just four hours of unfinished stuff. Yeah. But also I wonder if people would be satisfied with that
because so much of Snyder's stuff involves, again,
the cinematography of these kind of movies is it can be spectacular.
Yeah, absolutely.
And it's, you know, whether you feel it's ham-fisted or not,
the idea of Superman in a church and he's wondering
if he should reveal himself and save humanity,
like that involves lighting and it involves, you know,
stained glass and it involves all this sort of stuff.
Sure.
And it doesn't, whether you think it works or not,
it certainly would not work if it's just a storyboard and it's just a
stick figure Superman and a cross.
Sure.
And it's like he's in a church and he has a crisis of confidence.
Yeah.
Great.
Yeah.
That's not what people want in this universe.
They want to see it in its on film, amazingly colour corrected whatever.
Between that or nothing, you'd obviously take that, right?
I guess you would, yeah.
You'd take the unfinished.
But I think it would take a lot of the shine off it.
Oh, definitely, yeah.
Special effects you're talking about.
Yes.
And people being in a movie.
People being in a movie, perfect.
Yeah, absolutely.
So a lot of people have also mentioned that this is potentially a bad thing
and because we're getting pushes now for things like Josh Trank's
Fantastic Four.
Obviously there's calls for people to remake various Star Wars films,
which, you know, we've talked about.
Yeah.
And David A's Suicide Squad.
He, though, has come out and said that it's simply not my IP.
You know, there isn't like a cut that's mine necessarily.
Yeah, right.
My cut of Suicide Squad is just a rumor and that's just fine.
But he's also been tweeting about some of the stuff that he has included,
including more Joker stuff, other elements.
And HBO Max have also been responding to a lot of comments from that.
Okay, right.
So I do wonder that if this does well, maybe they'll just go, okay, what can we do with suicide squad you know yeah i mean that's that's true and
again you know the one of the reasons that people have been suggest you know the more cynical among
us would suggest that maybe the reason they're going to split up justice league into six episodes
or what have you is so that then they get two months worth of subscriptions out of yeah out
of hb out of hbo max because because they release one a week for six weeks
and then you've got to pay for that second month.
Definitely.
And maybe they're also like,
well, we could get another couple of months out of people
if we release Suicide Squad but we add other bits and pieces.
We just mesh it together with Bright, whatever.
Two David Ayer movies.
Maybe when you think Captain Boomerang's dead
and he takes the money out of his jacket,
instead it might be the unicorn that we all expected it was going to be.
Is that what happened in that movie?
So in – I don't know.
Have we done a Caravan of Garbage or anything on Suicide Squad?
We reviewed it.
We've done a commentary?
We did a commentary.
Okay.
Well, maybe I mentioned this in the commentary.
But right at the start of Suicide Squad,
you see all the character profiles,
and it's like Captain Boomerang loves unicorns.
And then when they're setting up all this stuff and they're getting their equipment together he puts a unicorn
in his jacket like a stuffed unicorn but then later you think he's going to be killed because
he's getting he gets stabbed or he gets shot or something like in his chest and he opens up his
jacket and he pulls out a wad of cash and it's like surely that's the unicorn like that's the
foreshadowing of the he puts the unicorn and he's saved by the unicorn that's the yeah but that
that's subverting expectations.
It's subverting expectations, isn't it?
You thought unicorn and they did a thing that you didn't know he had probably.
So I saw a very long Twitter thread yesterday.
Sure.
And it was basically a person saying, he's saying, I don't like, you know, the Zack Snyder,
Batman v Superman.
The universe that he's built.
Man of Steel, et cetera, Justice League.
Okay.
Please let me know.
Like, I'm fascinated to know why people like it kind of thing.
And it's very long, but he's like, basically, I don't get it.
And somebody in his Twitter thread has said, you don't need to get it,
and we are just beginning, which I think is a good.
And then people are like, what do you mean?
Somebody says, surely you're just ending.
You wanted the Snyder Cut.
You're getting the Snyder Cut.
That's it, right?
And he's like, well, now we are starting with the fight for Zack
to finish his entire vision.
Right, okay.
So basically, I guess there was going to be a Justice League 2.
Yeah, well, that was originally the idea.
I think that this is going to go on for a long time.
Even if this is supposed to be a bookend,
we're probably never going to hear the end of this, to be honest.
Even when he might want to move on from this,
maybe he just wants to kind of cap this off and move on.
He's got a zombie movie coming out soon as well,
which I'm really looking forward to because his zombie movie is fantastic.
I read an article by Joanna Robinson on Vanity Fair,
and it's basically about how if you're releasing a movie like this,
you are rewarding negative fan behavior.
Right.
And I think there is definitely a lot of that.
And I've had a bit of it, but I've never been anti the Snyder Cut
or said that it doesn't exist, though it's sort of it didn't it doesn't really exist
no it's not finished no exactly i mean it will exist but there was never a point where they
were going to release this in cinemas and warner brothers were going to put this money in to make
it to finish it it wasn't gonna happen again it's this set of circumstances but there has been this
there's been a lot of death threats and a lot of insane people tweeting about this which is i mean that's
the internet you you can expect it but i think it's also unfair to go this is fanboys running
amok because like all fandoms it seems to be a minority because a lot of people just want to see
it and it's just like tweeting about it it has. Like I saw it this way compared to when Sony were going to take back
Spider-Man.
People said, oh, it's the same.
It's, you know, people are very passionate about this thing
and they would like to see a version that they enjoy or what have you.
And, you know, whenever a controversial decision like this happens,
you do get people really rising up.
But I think it is the sheer not not saying not saying that you know every fan of a particular movie is a
particular way or whatever but i would say based on my own experience the sheer intensity of dc
eu fans yeah is incomparable to anything else the only thing that is close is probably star wars but
the dc stuff is more intense.
I would definitely agree with that.
Like there's, you know, because there's obviously, you know,
Star Wars Twitter accounts that are like,
here's all the Star Wars news and here's my opinions
and I just tweet about Star Wars.
But the number of people who just tweet Zack Snyder-related stuff,
like every day, every hour, they will track down.
If you mention Zack Snyder, they search for it.
Like months later, they find it.
Like they've clearly built a schedule.
They're like, well, I'll get to that.
I found this guy.
I'll get to him in six months.
And then they tweet about how you're wrong or whatever.
Like it's a level of intensity I've never seen anywhere else.
I've had a few comments that are like, ha, they're getting the Snyder Cut.
What do you think of that?
Yeah, that's fine.
Like I'm not, why would I stop that?
Why would I, if you love this, that's good.
Like that's, I'm not going to, why would I crush your dreams on that?
Be like, you're an idiot.
I guess it's a whole, and again, it is a whole.
From what I've read, it seems to be, you know,
some people are like, I'm mystified why you like these movies.
Some people are like, well, we do like them, just shut up about it.
On the one side, you've got people going,
you guys are really intense about this sort of thing,
and people from the other side are like, we just like it,
leave us alone kind of thing.
And it is the case.
It's a lot of clashing over.
Definitely.
And I think it's often a case of like well i my my view is you should like
whatever you like yeah and don't attack people don't attack well that's and that's the thing but
there are also people who are like there's there's people who are genuinely genuinely mystified by
people like these movies or what have you and there are people who are like you're an idiot for
liking these movies yes that is the dividing line and that is where that is where the the line is really yeah
absolutely yeah you know and the thing is i don't think you should your entire life and being and
and what you want in this universe shouldn't revolve around this this thing right you know
what i mean because the other thing is and look i think for some people it's not going to matter
and they will die on this hill for the rest of their life it could be not good yeah like genuinely and
i don't just mean like that was okay it could genuinely be just horrible yeah and what are you
gonna do if it is you know what i mean i think there'll be a lot of people in denial about it
there'll be a lot of people doubling down yeah and again that's not me saying that it that it
will be terrible i'd say it's probably going to be at least as good as Batman v Superman, whatever you think of that movie.
Yeah, right.
It will be on par, yeah.
Yeah.
It's very interesting, isn't it, James?
Yeah.
Well, one more tweet I wanted to talk about.
This is from Zach Stentz, and he's the screenwriter behind a bunch of stuff,
including Thor and X-Men First Class.
He said,
For everyone worried about the precedent of angry fans getting their way,
this is a pretty unique circumstance and confluence of events a director and cast willing to revisit their work and a new streaming service hungry
for content and buzz that's exactly because how many directors would actually want to go back and
go the thing that i sort of got removed from and also i had a family tragedy and they released a
really bad version of it i want to come back four years later to finish it and there's a new streaming
service and there's millions of this huge fan it. And there's a new streaming service. And there's millions of,
there's a huge fan base.
Exactly.
And there's a global pandemic.
Yes.
It's,
it's unusual.
That is,
yeah,
to say the least.
Yeah.
So,
you know,
living in unusual times.
Yeah.
I just,
I just,
I don't,
I don't know.
Like Richard Donnell would be a good example.
Yeah.
Superman too.
But that was like three decades later that they finished that.
And it's also,
there's very few movies that have-
There's a lot of movies.
What are you talking about?
Oh, yeah.
I retract my entire argument.
But there's very few movies that have so much pre-existing footage made.
Yeah.
And then it was cancelled.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, I'm sure there's a few.
I know Tim Minchin had an animated movie that got yanked away from him
and that he'd finished like 80% off.
I guess, if anything, the precedent here will be movie production houses
going through their archives and going, oh, we left this on the shelf
because we didn't have the money or we didn't think it was good enough
to release or what have you, or the production was shut down
for some reason.
Now we'll bring it out because we already own it
and we're going to rebuild it.
But there's so many other things.
It's like, well, people might want to see the Edgar Wright version
of Ant-Man, but he never made it.
He never filmed it, so there's nothing they can do.
Exactly.
You could read the script of that potentially.
Yeah, right.
But it's even like Fantastic Four.
Does Josh Trank want to finish Fantastic Four?
And also, would Disney, who now own the Fantastic Four,
put the money into making this thing which everybody hates
and there isn't the call to see.
Yeah, right, yeah.
Because there's never been that fan base.
No, not really.
I mean, I think maybe off the back of this you'll get a bit of a swell,
but not enough for them to even consider that.
Yeah, and also you're right because it's also,
in addition to being big fans of Zack Snyder's work,
there are people out there who have spent their whole lives
being big fans of Batman or Superman,
who've now attached themselves as being big fans of Batman or Superman. Yes. Who've now attached themselves as being big fans of this.
There are plenty of people who have been long-time fans
of the Fantastic Four, but what do you get?
You get a movie every 10 years?
Yeah, that's right.
Maybe they appear on an animated series for a couple of episodes
or whatever.
There's no...
For me, what I want from this at the end of the day,
I want to see it in whatever version it turns out to be,
whether it be an extended movie or a series which i think speaking of that idea that you can get a
couple months of subscription out of people which then means they probably won't cancel i think
that's probably the way it's going to go i want to i want to see it and then i do want to see
different versions of these characters and whatever that looks like i don't need to necessarily see
a continuation of this universe i'm more interested in kind of branching out into different things.
But, you know, it remains to be seen in what direction that goes.
Something interesting that Dan Olsen,
who is folding ideas on YouTube and Twitter, pointed out
is that if it is released, because he did a video
on whether or not the Snyder Cut exists,
and he came to the conclusion, well, it probably exists
in some hard drives or some film canisters somewhere. Which is what Zack Snyderisters somewhere which is probably which is what exactly so he hit the nail on the head
uh and i think he even said well they'll probably if anything they'll release it on a streaming
service so yeah pretty much people should watch that video because he pretty much yeah now that
but he pointed out that if it is to be released in like half hour chunks how are they going to do
that is he gonna is zack snyder going to have to reedit it?
So each episode is like a TV episode.
They do like they did with Quibi where they took the movie,
the most dangerous game and just cut it up into nine minute chunks.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Or is it just going to be like,
yeah,
is it going to,
is it going to end in the middle of sentences?
What's going to happen?
You know,
because I think,
because you would think that if,
if,
if you want a satisfying viewing experience,
because if it's released one week at a time, then-
That would either seriously break the flow or you'd have to-
Wait.
Artificially kind of twist it into a natural conclusion.
Every episode, yeah.
Attempt to every time.
And I think I'd rather it just stop abruptly and then it just starts again
because then at the end you can watch it as the whole thing.
Yeah, right.
I'd rather that than if you do watch it as a chunk then it kind of ebbs and
flows in terms of these artificial stop and start right right i think yeah that's that's interesting
or maybe it'd be like you know arrested development where you know the season where they did each
character individually i hate that season yeah well maybe they can maybe you know who knows what
they're doing in the editing bay he might go okay here's all the batman scenes we'll see batman week
one yep we'll see you know wonder woman week two etc that's that's not a and then put it together
you know in episode six five and six they put it all together and they have the big finale we know
there's a lot of flash stuff that was altered where the flash's girlfriend shows up that was
all cast and everything like that we know there's a bunch of cyborg stuff where we see him playing football and yep he's in a weird
virtual reality hologram space and things like that because cyborg and i feel really bad for
ray fisher because he is a good actor but yeah what what is he even doing in that justice league
movie nothing i can't remember like he they opened an email with him in it yes and there's a scene
where he's on the street and he's wearing a hoodie and he's sad and that's kind of. And he's in a window and then at the end he's trying to open a box or something.
He's like, I wish Superman were here to open this box. And Superman's
like, well, I am here. So everything's fine. Like Ray Fisher was
supposed to get his own movie and he probably would have gone on to much bigger things if he
had have had any play in that movie. Is he the one digging the grave
at one point? At one point he does help dig a grave.
It's him and Flash digging some ground.
Dig up a grave, sorry.
They're digging up a grave,
but you would think that Flash could do that very quickly.
But they talk about that.
They're like, well, we want to do it in real time
because it's disrespectful.
No, there's a clock rutted on this.
Yeah, the world is going to end.
Maybe the universe is going to end.
Yeah.
Anyways, I guess we'll see.
Do you think, okay, random speculation, rampant speculation time,
do you think this movie will end similarly to theatrical Justice League
in the sense that all the heroes will be kind of hapless
and then Superman comes back and he handily defeats Steppenwolf
straight away?
I don't think so.
You think it'll be different?
I think he's definitely going to be a factor in them defeating Darkseid.
I think Steppen wolf will be in
it but i think it'll be mostly dark side focus do you think zach snyder because the rumor was
always going to be there was going to be two justice league movies one was going to end on
a cliffhanger what if he ends this on a cliffhanger and then they have to and they have to do another
one like he'd be bold they end they defeat stepwolf or whatever, and then Darkseid shows up, beats them all,
and then there's the cliffhanger,
and maybe it becomes the nightmare universe we saw in Batman v Superman.
Then what are you going to do, fans?
Man, that would be an absolute power play.
You know what?
I'm saying it.
I reckon it might be.
Yeah, you know what?
And it's entirely possible that it's not even that he does that out of spite.
I'm saying he's does that out of spite. But HBO.
I'm saying he's doing it out of spite.
I don't think they'd let him do that if they didn't want to maybe continue it.
But I think that the idea that they're seeing how it's being put together,
they're liking what he's doing, they want him to do more because they think it will be financially beneficial,
then maybe they will allow him to do it that way.
I don't think he can sneak that out there.
No, it would be tricky.
It would have to run it past people.
I know it's going to be his vision,
but there are restraints on this, like there are every movie.
But I mean, you know, maybe at this point,
because I, and also like a lot of people out there have been saying,
you know, well, they didn't let him release his full vision
or what have you, but maybe they're at this point,
they've seen the power of the social media machine.
For three years this has been every comment on every post
has been released to the Snyder Cut.
So maybe at this point they're like, we should monetize this.
Yes.
We should.
It's also entirely possible that the general audience response
and numbers to this are not there.
Yeah, that's true.
There's a big difference and we've seen that in the popularity
of certain properties and also politics.
Twitter and social media does not reflect real life.
So we don't really know.
That would be – imagine that.
I hate to get political, everybody.
I'm sorry for bringing up politics.
But that would be the ultimate blow if they're like –
and these streaming services never really release their numbers,
but what if they're like three know three years 30 million dollars and nobody
signs up like that i'd be i'd be shocked yeah i think there's enough going on hbo max that it will
absolutely fire out of the gate is this going to be released do we think at the premiere of hbo
because that's like in a month or so so it would be next year but that's that's what I'm saying. I guess if everybody signed up in anticipation of Justice League
and then when Justice League comes out, it's already been saturated
and the maximum number of people who've already signed up
have already signed up.
I think these things continue to grow.
Netflix has been nothing but increasing.
Same with Disney.
Same with Quibi.
What were they thinking?
I don't know
portrait mode
here's my hit prediction
is this ends
on enough of a
this ends
open-ended enough
yep
or you know what
I'm going to say
it's going to end
on a cliffhanger
yep
and then it's going to be like
I think you're probably right
I think there's going to be
enough loose threads
even if they do cap it
and they defeat
Darkseid
there's going to be enough to be like, what happened to the Green Lanterns
or what happened to Martian Manhunter there?
Yeah, and then if they did want to continue this universe
to make everybody happy, they could make the Flashpoint universe,
swap out the Batman or whoever you need to and continue it that way
and then go, well, it's still the universe that you love
except Ben Affleck doesn't want to do it anymore.
Exactly, yeah.
Look, but I'm saying full cliffhanger.
That's what it's going to be.
Okay.
I would be very interested to see whether that is true.
It'd be true.
Yeah.
And I'll say the opposite because then one of us is right.
One of us is right and one is wrong, yeah.
And one of us will get the kudos regardless.
That's right.
Some idiot on the Weekly Planet podcast suggested that it would
or would not be a cliffhanger.
They both sound the same.
It doesn't really matter which one.
Yeah.
Anyways.
I get a lot of tweets that are like, what's the name of that thing you recommended?
I'm like, I recommended no such thing.
That was James.
We sound different as far as I can tell, but I can't hear the sound of my own voice.
So I don't know.
Maybe we do sound the same.
That's it.
Anyways, of course, we are going to be covering the Zack Snyder slash Joss Whedon trilogy
for Caravan of Garbage starting June 2nd if you do want to check it out
and come along and yell at us.
We'd love to have you, quite frankly.
We recorded the Banner Steel one just earlier and had a good time.
Absolutely.
So, yeah, look forward to that.
Anyway, do you know what it's time for?
Is it time for what we're reading?
Yeah, what are we going to read?
I'm doing the thing.
That's how it goes.
Westworld My new thing
I say Westworld
It doesn't make any sense
It's going to get to the point
Where I don't even know
Why I'm doing it
Yeah good
Great
But I do it
It's a Pavlovian response
Yeah
And I hope everybody at home
Does it too
What are you Westworlding today?
You know what
I haven't got to it yet
But I'm going to
I was going to mention this up top
But our friends over at Do Go On
have a new YouTube series.
They do.
Over on their channel at Do Go On, I assume.
I think it's on Stupid Old.
Stupid Old Studios.
Okay.
So the same channel where you get Gamey Gamey Game.
Yep.
And also some skits.
Some skits and sketches.
Some skits and bits.
Yeah, some skits and bits.
But they're doing their show in the Stupid Old Studios studios
and on video.
And they're in great leather-bound chairs.
Yes.
Very good.
Absolutely.
Please check it out.
I mean, it's a terrific show and if you want to see their faces,
that's the perfect opportunity for you to do that
and then be like, oh, that's what they all look like.
Yes.
That's what they all look like.
That's what they all look like.
Okay.
So, so, so.
Yes.
What I'm reading, it's also things we watched.
It sure is.
And listen to.
Because there's no comics at the moment, really.
But that's coming back at some point soon.
Maybe July-ish.
Okay.
Remember it.
The Lovebirds, which is by the director of The Big Sick and also starring, again, Kamau
Nanjiani, who didn't write it this time, and Issa Rae.
It's kind of like if you've seen the movie Date Night with Steve Carell and Tina Fey or Game Night,
it's kind of like that kind of rom-com-y adventure.
It's a night happening.
Yeah, the night happening and there's adventures and gunfighting
and people running amok.
And it's pretty good.
It's some funny jokes.
Yeah, right.
It's a good put it on and be like, oh, yeah, this is, they've made this.
It's better than a standard Netflix kind of affair.
Oh yes. So there's
some things in it and you can watch it and that's cool
to me. It's cool. I'm trying to think of other stuff.
What did I do this week? I just watched Man of Steel, I guess.
I also listened to a podcast called Articles of Interest
which is a podcast
about, it's from the people who do the podcast
99% Invisible. Oh my goodness.
But it's a podcast about clothes and stuff.
Do you love clothes and stuff? I do. But it's a podcast about clothes and stuff. Do you love clothes and stuff?
I do.
It's like a podcast about the invention of the Hawaiian shirt or plaid or blue jeans.
Plaid?
Plaid.
Oh, my goodness.
What's all with all these dudes wearing plaid?
They're all stand-up comedians.
They all just wear a plaid shirt.
I wear a plaid occasionally.
You throw on a plaid?
Oh, all the time.
Love a plaid.
Yeah, that's good.
You're a plaid lad?
That's right.
It's the working man's pattern. But it's not really a working man who's wearing it, is it? Oh, all the time. Love a plaid. Yeah, that's good. You're a plaid lad? That's right. It's the working man's pattern.
But it's not really a working man who's wearing it, is it?
We're not working men.
No.
Not even men.
Soyboys is what I'm saying.
Oh, we're soyboys.
That is true.
What else have I been watching?
I don't know.
I can't remember.
You've been around.
Something on Netflix.
Rick and Morty.
Good show.
Yep.
You've watched Solar Opposites yet?
No, I haven't, but I will.
You've watched Solar Opposites.
Yeah, I will.
Yeah.
Very good.
And that's cool.
That is cool.
Should we do the letters?
Let's do the letters.
Okay, put the letters there.
The classic one was,
Letters, oh letters, we love you.
Some letters, they're only a take away.
I know they're here right now.
We're going to do letters.
If you do want to reach the show,
hashtag Weekly Planet Pod on Twitter.
That's right.
Fire them on through.
Like I said, again, I didn't get that many this week,
so shoot them on out there.
It's a good way to reach the show.
It's a very good chance of getting it through.
Or WeeklyPlanetPod at gmail.com.
Shoot through an email, and Nick Mason will definitely read your email
and read it on the show no matter what.
Yes.
Do you want to go first?
Yeah, this is from Devesh.
He says, hey, guys, big fan of the pod.
Last week I watched The Elephant Man for the first time ever
and was shocked to find out that Dexter Fletcher plays the boy in it.
Is there any film or TV show in which a major actor or actress
popped in without you noticing?
Oh, my goodness.
Yeah.
I was watching Elementary, as I think I mentioned last week.
Lucy Liu's in that.
Lucy Liu's in that.
Surprise.
Who knew?
Johnny Lee Miller.
I didn't know he was going to be in that, but he's in it.
But also there's an episode where David Harbour plays like a hospital CEO.
Yeah, right.
He's very, very charismatic and he's the killer.
Oh, no.
That's right.
You've twisted it.
You've done the twist.
Yeah, and I'm like, oh, there he is.
That's fun.
Yeah, I think if you watch any of the Law & Order, SVU, NYPD,
especially like in the 90s, you're like, that's a famous person.
Yeah, for sure.
Sometimes they get famous people to just, they'll do like a,
be like Glenn Close is in this for some reason. They'll just do that every now and then or something like that
ben still is in empire of the sun and christian bale is the lead in that movie that's right which
is like it's weird because i watched that as a kid and you know you know i didn't think anything
of it and then watching it again not recently like 10 years ago i'm like shit like john
malkovich is in this this is like a really really, this is a big movie. I need to see an actor 10 times.
You can see an actor.
They're in a lot of stuff.
You just, no, no, no.
You looked around.
No, no.
You need to see like television.
I thought you were bringing in my favorite TV and movie actors as a surprise.
I don't know John Stamos.
I can't get him in here for you.
Wow.
Could you get the guy from.
Bones?
No, the guy from Sugar Ray.
Could you get him in to...
Mark McGraw?
Yeah, could you get him in to announce something sad?
I could probably get a cameo, Addy.
I could probably get a cameo, yeah.
Okay, that'd be cool, yeah.
Definitely.
Yeah, definitely.
Nice.
Oh, but anyway, I was going to say,
it takes me like 10 times seeing a celebrity,
seeing an actor in a movie before I recognise them.
Like I've got to see them in like 10 things
and they're a recognisable face to me.
Do you need to see a wide interview
where they're going through their own handbag or whatever?
Yes.
That'll help you, won't it?
I think it will.
Then I get to know the real them.
Yeah.
What if somebody was like, empty your pockets?
Not in a mugging situation, but like for wide.
You don't have to do it, but do you think you'd have enough?
You'd have to go in with stuff and be like, I always carry this.
So I'll be like, I don't know my wallet.
A gun for threatening wide employees.
Yeah. I've got this expired Medicare card that I'll be like, I don't know my wallet. A gun for threatening white employees. Yeah.
I've got this expired Medicare card that I pull out every time I go to the doctors
and they go, that's expired.
And I go, I know I mean to replace it and I never do.
And they go, don't worry, you're on the system already.
And I go, cool.
I won't replace it then.
But I also won't throw it out.
What am I even doing?
It's probably very simple.
Definitely.
I'd be like, I wear my wedding ring because I'm married.
Belonged to my grandpa, actually.
He died.
I didn't steal it from him.
You didn't take it from him.
No.
Okay, right.
He died and then it got passed to me.
Yeah.
I had to get it resized because I have very thin fingers.
The guy was like, nice thin fingers.
And I went, thanks.
What do you think of that story?
He's going to compliment you because he's in the business of
it wasn't a compliment accommodating thin fingers
it was it was
it was an insult
it was a neg
were you in that position where you could
really put the ring around two of your fingers
it was a compliment
he was a farmer
he was a working man he was a dairy farmer
oh yeah
you didn't dig him up in a respectful manner I dug him up in a very disrespectful He was a farmer. He was a working man. He was a dairy farmer. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
So there you go.
You didn't dig him up in a respectful manner.
I dug him up in a very disrespectful manner.
Wow.
Yeah.
Anyways, he was a kind man who's dead.
Yep.
But what else are we doing?
This is an email from Kyle Harris.
Yeah.
It's his best podcast.
Thanks. Wait, us?
I was going to immediately assume it's a recommendation for another podcast. Cool. It's the best podcast. But it mean I was gonna immediately went into assume it's a
recommendation for another podcast podcast but it says here this is why this is why I got this one
because it's quite intriguing it says you guys make my workday 100 times better which is very
nice and then it says sent for my iPhone often I'm like are you listening and tweeting and emailing
in the toilet yeah what are you up to often it's people who like we ruined a work meeting or they
laughed out loud and their boss yelled at them or something it It's never normally we've made their work day better.
There you go.
It's like I was listening to you and I got hit by a forklift.
So anyway, what do they say?
I work in an accountancy firm.
How did it even happen?
I think your podcast is cursed.
So what's this about though?
Or is that it?
That's it.
Oh, wow.
I'm just like, what's it?
Do you want to like elaborate on that guy who sent that email?
Who is it?
Maybe he does.
That was Kyle Harris.
Kyle, let us know.
What are you up to?
I think he emailed us in the toilet.
Yeah, you might be right.
This is hashtag.
I wanted a toilet cubicle literally in the toilet.
Oh, it's right.
Okay, I get you.
It's hashtag weekly planet pod.
This is from Mustard Custard.
Oh, that's very good.
It's actually Jackson33346286, which isn't as interesting, but hey.
Less so, yeah.
Who did you talk about?
The Austin Power was on the latest pod and The Spy Who Shaded Me
is my favourite movie.
It's probably a typo there.
It's a typo, yeah, but, you know, I'm just...
Good stuff.
I mean, I make typos all the time.
Sometimes I read back text messages and I'm like,
what is this even?
Yeah.
Just wondered if you were going to do a caravan of garbage
on the Austin Powers trilogy.
Here's the thing about comedies.
Yes.
It's hard to make fun of a comedy when they're comedy,
not even make fun of, but how do you approach Caravan of Garbage
might necessarily be suited to something like that.
I mean, a super fast we did because it's like a bad.
Sure, I remember that one.
But I don't know whether I'd do another one of those
because it's just like, well, this joke isn't good
and who is this supposed to be?
And, oh, yeah, it's Britney Spears and whatever.
Yeah, right.
But what do you do with Austin Powers?
I don't know.
That's true.
Look, if you guys want a very deep dive on the Austin Powers movies,
you should listen to Mike Check.
Absolutely, you should.
There's a podcast where our friends Alexi and Cam
talk about every Mike Myers movie.
They re-watch them to see if they're still good.
And some Daniel Carvey stuff.
Yeah, that's true. Yeah, they've done every Austin Myers movie to see if they rewatch them to see if they're still good. And some Dana Carvey stuff.
Yeah, that's true. Yeah.
They've done every, they've done every Austin Powers movie and every Mike Myers movie.
So you should check that one out.
It's really good.
Do you think though, if we, if there's going to ask Alexi, cause he's a real film buff.
Yeah.
If he's listening to this, he may or may not be.
Does he listen to this?
Sometimes.
All right.
But I, my, my question was, was going to be to him.
I'll message him this week
and I'll let you know.
It's a two-parter. Do you know of any lifelong film
buffs, like yourself, either personally or by
reputation, who saw Batman v Superman
and decided it was the best film ever made?
That's my question number one. Because a lot of people
are like, this is the greatest movie ever made.
But I've never met anyone who's like,
I love films, and I love
cinephiles. But they're not even like, because when you think of cinephiles, you think of like, like, I love films and I love, you know, I love.
Cinephiles.
But they're not even like, because when you think of cinephiles, you think of like, oh,
they love pretentious art movies or whatever.
But like somebody like Alexei, he loves your Austin Powers.
He loves popcorn movies.
He loves big dramas.
He loves pretentious art films.
You know, it's, it's, cinephiles love filmmaking.
Yes.
And I'm wondering like, if anybody's been like.
And this is the best one.
I've seen it all. And this is the best one i've seen it
all and this is the best one yeah so all the people like this movie i'd say almost certainly
there's somebody there's got to be someone the ring fell off my skinny little fingers
you even had it resized you had a double resize while we're recording i was i was holding it in
my hand and i guess the second one was like what's the most positive thing a cinephile might say about
batman v superman sure or you know cinematography. Any of Snyder's DC directing work.
But anyway, yeah, it's probably cinematography.
Yeah.
But I think, look, also getting back to Austin Powers, if they make another one, which they
probably will, we'll do them, right?
Yeah.
Or at least one of them.
Great.
Got another one or I've got another one?
No, this is from Josh Davies.
He says, I work in Gustav Graves' Ice Palace.
That's where I work.
That's not true.
Oh.
I was trying to one-up him.
He works at the Eden Project in the UK,
which was used as the bad guy lair in Die Another Day.
So, yes, I do get to pretend I'm diamond-faced regularly,
and though it's an indoor rainforest,
people still ask where the Arctic area is.
And where is it?
It's not there.
Yeah.
I went to an ice bar once in New Zealand.
It's in Cornwall, apparently.
Oh, okay.
Yeah. I went to an ice bar in New Zealand, and's in Cornwall apparently Okay I went to an ice bar
In New Zealand
And it's like you go in
And you put on a jacket
And it's all icy drinks
And all the chairs are ice
And whatever
And after five minutes
I'm like
This is a horrible idea
Why would anybody make this?
Oh yeah
It's unbearable to be in
You're going to put on a big jacket?
Yeah
For any length of time
Yeah that's right
There's a reason
There's a time limit on this
Because you'll die
If you stay in here too long.
No, it's because it's too cool and the line's too long, James.
Also, the drinks are like icy.
You'd be like, here's a hot drink, like a hot alcoholic drink.
Also, that's a question for anybody else,
the question I had about Batman v Superman.
Yes.
If you're a film buff, you love all the films.
If you're buff and you love film.
Yeah, yeah.
If it's your favourite movie, let me know
and also let me know what your second favourite movie is.
Yes.
It can't be a superhero movie.
No, if it's their second, it can be whatever
their second favorite movie. You know, they're just going to get short. They're going to
Shawshank Redemption you though. You know that, right? Oh yeah, maybe we'll get Shawshank.
That's true. Donnie Darko. Maybe. I don't know. I might get Donnie Darko. Yeah. And
just to clarify, maybe I hate to speak for you and please correct me if it's not true.
This isn't a criticism of people who love that movie. You just want know i'm genuinely curious like if that's the case and let me know
let me know what you love about it this isn't for us to make fun of you but maybe it is not on the
show certainly certainly not yeah no that's an interesting question uh also if you do love the
ice palace from die another day last james bond is coming up this week that's why that's why i
brought that one up yeah thank you Thank you for reminding me, yeah.
I do have another tweet.
This is from Daniel Atkinson.
It says, James, as a young single dad, you are an inspiration to me.
That's it.
That's a tweet.
That's nice.
Super congrats to you on your new kid.
Thank you.
I'm so happy for you.
What are your dad movie recommendations,
best movies to watch along with your kid?
Disney Plus will obviously have some great stuff,
but a lot of the Disney stuff is dreary and not very good.
I would say like especially the older stuff.
My kid now has been watching Spider-Verse again and again.
I think the first time it was a lot and he enjoyed it,
but now he's going back and he's like,
because a lot of that movie the first time he's like,
why isn't Miles Morales in his black Spider-Man suit?
What's going on here?
Why isn't he?
And I'm like, wait.
I had to pause and be like, he, he's going to wear it.
Okay.
It's going to happen later in the movie.
It's, it's, it's, it's a character arc idiot.
I said, well, that's the only way they'll learn.
So now watching it the second time, he's like, you know, he wears this one.
And then later he gets the other one.
I'm like, yeah, I told you that.
I know.
I've seen this.
You're at that stage of raising a child.
You're also beating him at races deliberately. Yeah, exactly. I'm like, you know, everything, you're at that stage i've seen this you're at that stage raising of raising a child you're also beating him at races deliberately yeah exactly i'm like you know everything you know i know i already know there's nothing there's nothing you know that i don't know even if you
learn it independently i want to be clear i already i knew it also there is nothing at this
stage in your life that you will learn that i don't already know when you're telling me a thing
i'm humoring you that's right if you do. If you watch perhaps a television show I haven't seen
and you learn something from that, I just want you to know that's drivel.
It's irrelevant to my life, but keep it.
It's fine.
Anyway, I feel like when my kids listen to this in the future,
they're going to be like, he must hate us.
Because I'm not the person, I don't get sappy about my kids on this,
but I love my kids.
My kids are incredible, but I don't, I never say that on this.
I think they're just like, man, dad really thinks we're a burden.
I feel like that's a, so if I die, this is the only archive of my life.
It's just me spinning out like the entire time,
like just not having a handle on reality.
But don't you say nicer things over your other podcast?
Yeah, no, not necessarily.
But I love being a dad.
Like I chose to be a dad.
It's great.
That's true.
Yeah.
And also if you don't want
to be a dad,
that's also fine.
I feel like we've talked
about this bit,
you know.
Yeah.
You don't have to do it
if you don't want to.
Yeah.
Anyway,
anything else?
No,
that's the whole show.
There's a bunch of new emails
this week that are great.
I'll get it from next week,
I think.
Great.
So if people could just
not send an email this week.
I've sent more emails.
That's what we want.
We want more emails.
And do you want to wrap the show up?
Yes.
Thank you, everybody, so much for listening.
Sorry it's a little bit shorter, but I'm doing this until I get my...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Life in order.
Life in order, yeah.
So forever.
Yeah, that's right.
I would like to do an Extended Cut, Director's Cut episode.
Yeah.
In lieu of Justice League and whatever and maybe next
week but just all the best director's cuts extended cuts okay that sounds really good
we're just going to talk about blade runner that's what we're going to talk about and the extended
cut of suicide squad oh my goodness wouldn't you rather see the suicide squad the new one than
another cut of absolutely i would yes that's correct anyway um yeah anyway thank you everybody
for listening to the show.
I hope everybody's doing all right out there.
Yeah.
Thank you for telling a friend.
Thank you for subscribing.
Thank you for leaving a nice review.
Yes.
James, you got any nice reviews?
Got a couple here.
This says, great podcast.
And also, not the real Dr. Octavius, five stars.
You can do it in app.
It's so easy to do, Mason.
Very easy.
You can do it right now.
You could do it right now.
I'm not doing it though.
I'm looking at other things.
You should. I really want James to read this I'm looking at other things. You should.
I really want James to read this on mic and hear either James or Mason or both.
Tell me they're proud of me.
We're proud of you.
Yeah, I'm proud of you.
Unless you're doing bad stuff.
Oh, we don't know what they're doing, right?
That's right.
He might be robbing a bank.
Because it's so easy to review us and give us five stars that he could be one hand.
He's like clickety click.
And the other hand, he's like using a laser.
He's cutting through a vault or whatever. I'm okay with the laser cutting through a vault robbing a
bank i'm less okay with the handgun scaring the public yeah that's bad that one's bad yeah i mean
it's so easy to review you could do it through a stocking that you're wearing on your face as a
mask exactly but anyway i'm even if you are robbing a bank using the laser through the vault i'm very
proud of you me too it's harder than you think. Two hilarious hosts with great back and forths
come to the Red Hot Comic Book Movie News
stay for the random, sometimes insane asides and rabbit holes
as they, mostly James, lose their minds.
I was going to say it's mostly you.
I don't know if everybody's kind of accepted the fact
that I'm the one spiralling.
It's not inaccurate, is it?
You seem to have got a handle on things.
It's because I keep it way down inside.
You press it down.
Also, most of the things I don't tell people about are crimes.
Can't put them on a podcast.
Is it laser vault stuff?
It's mostly laser vault stuff, yeah.
This one is from Bob the Bounty Hunter.
It says, Lisa, I love you.
Five stars.
Lisa, if you're reading this, please come back.
Took a turn?
Yeah.
I mean, I don't know if Lisa, because a lot of the times partners or ex-partners don't
really listen to this show.
Yeah, they probably aren't also scrolling reviews of the show.
The best way to get somebody back probably isn't through this podcast,
but hey, if we can help, sure.
Maybe she's trapped in that vault.
Maybe that's why she hasn't come back.
She's trapped in the vault.
We're getting her lasered out, so it's going to be fine.
Everything's going to work out this week.
It worked out perfectly.
You need to speak to not the real Dr. Octavius to tee that up.
That's right.
I hope everything works out for both of you guys.
What's next on the end of the show?

I appreciate it.
That's right, yeah.
Let me think.
We've got some T-shirts on tpublic.com.
Do we?
I believe so.
That's great.
Unless they've been removed.
I have no idea.
Have they been removed?
I've never checked.
I don't know.
I've never checked whether they're there or not there.
We might have been saying this for years and they removed them. entirely possible yeah for being too cool i've got a link i know
there's a link but where does it go i don't know come on tell me fuck the fun maybe there's
somebody else's yeah maybe somebody else's t-shirt page rolling somebody else anyway we get so few
money from that i think that's why i never look into it you get like a dollar a shirt or whatever
that's like i don't care about this i've all I know people like you should independently print your merch and send it
out yourself,
but I just can't be dealing with that.
Two kids.
I don't want to,
you should do it.
I don't want to though,
but that could be your kids.
That's a remakes of sending shirts.
Yeah,
that's true.
I can send each one off with a kiss.
That'd be really good.
Thank you to the Bruton,
the Basilisk and Rack and Frolla musical themes.
Yes.
Next week, that thing you said earlier, I reckon.
Maybe.
Maybe that thing.
We don't know.
Maybe next week is the week you take off.
Maybe.
Because every week you're threatening it.
It's going to become a reality sooner rather than later, I think.
Anyways, again, thanks everybody for listening.
We appreciate the support.
Very much we do.
We'll be seeing you next week, hopefully, or maybe not.
And still videos happening, aren't they?
I think so, yeah.
We recorded a bunch before Baby happened.
That's right, exactly.
So we should do some more actually to kind of –
We should record some more.
Not now but at a different time.
Nice.
I need some ideas.
Give me some – I know people want more of those bad reviews
for good movies or whatever.
It's hard to recapture that because I'm going through
and I'm like none of these are quite getting there, you know what I mean?
The letterbox stuff.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I'd love to do that again.
Anyway, let's do the end of the game.
Yeah, grab that gem, you guys.
We'll see you next week probably.
Yeah, probably.
Goodbye.
Bye.
