Blade Troubles & Immaculate, Abigail, Sting - The Weekly Planet Podcast

[@Amouroso]

I know Mason is just one of James’ voices but hearing him do more voices in the intro really showed his acting range

[@lrrroftheplanetomicronpersei8]

Of course James can't take Maso to the UK. Everyone would see that it's just James doing two voices.

[@jamesroby6152]

I KNEW IT!

[@dazza818]

He's doing a full ventriloquist act even though we can't see which one is the dummy. 😐

[@michaeljeacock]

Pretty sure he is imagining his trip anyway. I went to the podcast festival site, and he isn't there.

Nick Mason is also the name of a politician in the UK who is being investigated for gambling on election....coincidence? I THINK NOT!

He can always join them in a video call...

I'm sorry but it sounds like this started with James and Maso doing American/British accents while talking to themselves.

[@Kango234]

I had the same feeling.

[@shinobi-no-bueno]

You mean James and little James?

[@CaptainArthanos]

I legitimately thought it was a bit of James doing a British accent and talking to himself at first 😂

Steven King HAS done more than one possessed car movie - as well as "Christine", he wrote (and Directed) "Maximum Overdrive" and co-wrote "Trucks". I'm sure they're both classics of the genre. Fingers crossed we get Snake Eyes next week!

[@eastvandb]

I'm holding out for Steven King's adaptation of the 'Cars' franchise. But live action.

[@awesomedonut8228]

abigail was probably the scariest movie i’ve seen this year because i somehow gave myself the idea that nic cage from renfield might be dracula and i could not breathe properly until dracula showed up

Next week will be even more perfect.

He was the second Body Snatchers guy. It was a remake. The original was the guy who gets flattened on Donald's windscreen at the 27:00 mark of the movie.

Love the in depth analysis of the AVGN Movie from James. "It doesn't have to be this necessarily" I love reviews that can apply to anything ever created by human hands and beyond.

[@AndrewBehm]

The thing I love about that Ki-Adi-Mundi "controversy" is that the ONE character trait he has in the movies is that he's constantly confidently wrong. Then he shows up briefly being wrong in this show and people are like "HE WAS A YOUNG SAGE AND MY FAVORITE CHARACTER HOW DARE THEY!"

[@goosgasgas4862]

Honestly the show has its issues, but as always, THOSE Star Wars fans are complaining about the most irrelevant stuff nobody who has gone outside once cares about

Oh man, Mason is really putting on a voice acting master class here at the intro! He truly is the best singular podcaster there is.

[@DarkachuWasTaken]

I was worried that the boys weren't hydrated this week but I got the sense eventually

[@elvenator]

I don't know how well versed James & Maso are on film scores, but I'd love to see them do a series about different film composers. I imagine James would want to do one with John Murphy, then we go Elfman, Zimmer, Shore, Williams, Silvestri, Horner, maybe McCreary... it'd be a romp!

I think we all knew Muscietti wouldn't stay for Brave and the Bold, Gunn only named him as the director to try and save the man's career after the atomic bomb known as the Flash. He didn't deserve the job and he's not a good fit or even qualified for it, its best to just move on quietly and announce a new director after Superman comes out.

[@samueltheprideofafrikarobi9319]

Greetings James and Maso. I have a movie suggestion for the two of you, even though I’m fairly certain that you won’t cover it here on the show. 😁Given the film’s “hook” however, I feel like it’s a bit of media that would fit squarely inside of your wheelhouse and I’m certain neither of you have seen it before. In 2017, an indie film called Kill Switch was released starring Dan Stevens in a very…familiar roll. The movie is about Will Porter (Stevans), a normal scientist who helps the government develop an unlimited energy source by pulling it from what were THOUGHT to be uninhabited alternate universes via a massive skyscraper-like spire, only to find that’s not the case. So, in order to save both worlds from the perpetually running device, Porter must become an unwitting hero and travel to the alternate world to stop the device from the other end. Now, if all of this sounds a bit like Black Mesa, City 17 and Gordan Freeman…that’s because it’s almost EXACTLY that. In point-of-fact, when Dr Porter goes to the alt dimension, he’s given a high-tech suit to assist with the transition and whenever the plot focuses on his time there, it’s done completely in (really good) first person perspective with a full-on HUD. Even the soldiers Porter fights are reminiscent of the Combine. Seriously, if you guys want to see an indie film that has a lower budget used pretty well that’s basically a VERY competent unofficial Half Life fan film, you should genuinely give it a gander. I fell like if you do, you’ll want to talk about it on the show. It can be legally streamed right now on Hulu, STARZ and KZbin if you want to rent it for a few bucks. It’s a movie that I think deserves a bit of spotlight…

[@robert6007]

Kevin McCarthy was the original "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" guy.

[@Goldmanvision]

The former Speaker of the House?

[@LV99guy]

correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Ki-Adi-Mundi the Jedi that was given permission to marry?

[@Elfenlied8675309]

Yes he is, because his species barely reproduces so his species is like almost extinct or something like that. He had like a dozen wives.

[@LV99guy]

@Elfenlied8675309 lol yeah that's funny

[@jokesonyou91]

He's given permission to go home on the weekends and sling his ding dong. But only if Yoda gets to watch.

[@TheEnecca]

yea imagine if something like that would have dropped in a disney star wars movie. You would never hear the end of it. But its from an era where its was "MY star wars" so its fine.

[@lordly123]

Important to mention that Ki-Adi Mundi’s birthday isn’t even Canon, it’s in Legends which all got retconned a decade ago, so it’s a hullabaloo over quite literally nothing.

[@JJJBunney001]

It wasn't even cannon in legends, the sorce was a single source book for a game or something

[@StreamingSunrise]

and it makes absolute sense that the arrogance of the jedi convinces themselves that whatever the threat is in the acolyte, is NOT true sith. they couldn't sense palpatine as a threat when he was literally right in front of them, so why would they perceive anything less as a threat?

[@JJJBunney001]

​@StreamingSunrise to be fair the jedi thought they were gone for nearly 1000 years at that point, the sith learned how to hide themselves well with ways of making themselves almost impossible to sense

[@slavenin6496]

It’s so frustrating how people cling to this, when there are much more egregious things in this show that are just awful, like pacing and such.

[@BaithNa]

It was canon because it was on official trading cards but that's not even the biggest problem with his appearance, he's THE JEDI on the council that says the Sith haven't been in a thousand years in Episode 1. Unless everyone dies and he's dumb enough to never find out, his appearance makes no sense. Also, stop straw manning, this show is an abomination on every level, Star Wars fans are just the first to sound the alarms because this show flagrantly spits on lore and canon. Stay in school, kid.

​@@mike9512 the truth is a lot more malicious than you guys are framing it. It's economically viable for them to cater to certain groups.

You guys should check out this cool horror film that didn’t get the praise it deserves. It’s about a man with lucious lips that can’t be contained. They are so large and plump that every mask he puts on are warped into a big kissy face. His brother (or maybe a cousin or just a guy who likes to wear opposite colours to our big duck lipped protagonist) kills their father figure. That forces the lippy lad to put a snake into his eyes and never use his lips for speaking, only sassy pouting. If that sounds too confusing it’s because it’s pretty complex, but don’t be scared, this one is the origin film and they will walk you through it.

I feel like this is a safe space to air my grievence about the Ki-Adi-Mundi thing. Im not mad about his age and the whole saying it breaks cannon thing is such BS considering the source people are pulling from says KAMs weapon of choice is a PURPLE LIGHTSABER!?! the literal next movie he appears in breaks cannon if thats the case, so stupid. im just upset that this show that takes place in the past needed to fucking shove him in the show for no reason cause he does nothing in the episode so hes literally just there for fan service which blew up in Disneys face because the grifter side of the fan base is mad about the wrong thing. They love seeing a guy they know show up on screen so they can do the Leo Dicaprio meme and jizz in their pants.
