The Boys & Morbius Returns - The Weekly Planet Podcast

[@ciaranmurren]

TCB means Taking Care Of Business, it was Elvis'motto. Original Nick Mason would have known that.

[@jayupstateny13650]

I came to comments to see how many people corrected him.

[@battleupsaber462]

True OGs will remember. Long before "It's Morbin Time", "Morbillion dollars", "#MorbiusSweep", "most movie of all time" and "Have Sex". Long before any of the Morbius memes hit the mainstream. There was....... *MONTHBIUS* James and Maso were the true pioneers of the Morbius memes. The Morbineers, if you will.

[@platonist21]

damn u right

[@Haysey_Draws]

The internet can be a terrible time for many reasons, but sometimes we all come together to troll a billion dollar company and i am here for that!

I'm so happy Monthbius is back.

[@heelmoxley365]

It never ended🙏

Once you’ve Morbed every Morb is Monthbius in your heart

[@ChildishGambeaner]

If they put it out a third time I might just have to watch it on principle alone

[@Eveliane]

I’ll miss Nick Mason, but I think Nick Mason did a great job this episode and I can’t wait to hear from him in the future

[@JadenSmithEyes]

Morbius is just a good word. Verb: Morb Noun: Morb Adjective: Morb Time: Morbin

[@arbiter5999]

I give you guys full credit for the morbius sweep meme. Even if you didn’t create it directly you definitely inspired it

[@deanlewis6109]

The other day I happened to be typing the word Morbius, and I stopped and stared at it for a good few minutes, absolutely convinced I'd spelt it wrong. It's Morbin' my brain.

[@BucketOfMarbles]

I thought Morbius would have made more money, especially after getting a 23 minute standing ovation at Cannes.

[@Mitcheck315]

I think it's important to note that even though Morbius DID make back twice its listed budget and that's usually enough to cover marketing, it was also delayed several times and had like three big marketing pushes when they thought it would come out so its marketing budget is probably much higher than usual for this type of movie

[@greggatesjr1301]

Does this mean James, who does the podcast by himself, has now made up and voices a third personality “New Nyck Masun?”

[@macuna1995]

Thanks for the *lbgtq* support, James and New Mason. Always awesome.

[@wespapes2054]

Sony putting Morbius back in theaters only for it to bomb again is one of the funniest things ever

[@GamingintheAM0801]

Sony: "People are really showing new appreciation for the old Spider-Man movies because No Way Home made a bajillion dollars. Should we capitalize on this by re-screening them in theaters as a special event, maybe even greenlight a third Andrew Garfield movie since that hashtag is trending? ... Nah. That'd be stupid." Also Sony six months later: "So people have been incessantly mocking Morbius since release and it only barely made a profit. What's that? There's a clearly satirical Morbius hashtag trending and the entire point of the joke is that nobody saw this movie or has any desire to? Quickly! We must give it a second theater run!" I get that Sony was maybe trying to look "cool" by being in on the joke, but they went about it by completely missing the joke. Nobody cares about Morbius. It's trending ironically. And since when have memes ever successfully translated into actual mainstream success?

[@TheDelinear]

I really like this new Alpha-Maso. So far he really outshines the old laundromat-Maso. I hope this works out well.

[@17absolut]

Imagine Jared Leto & Mark Wahlberg in the same movie. James already officially hates that movie. 😭😭😂😂😂

[@Kango234]

[@WeeklyPlanetPodcast]

It was just nice to be distant from Nick Mason and in the presence of his brother Nick Mason

[@SirSoloSoul]

Eddy is a gem, been a fan of his for years. Fun fact he's the guy who kind of popularized the "big yikes for me" meme

[@TheMelMan]

As a regular listener, I too can't tell you who is Nick and who is James.

[@owlegrad]

Nick is the one who speaks first and then James.

[@Kratosx23]

The difference with Kevin Feige and Peter Jackson is that Feige has been successfully telling Marvel stories, Jackson was purely adapting. Jackson is more closely aligned with David Benioff and Dan Weiss, who were excellent with adapting the material that had already been written, they knew what to cut, how to simplify, how to streamline plots, but the problems began when they were tasked to come up with material that they had to write themselves, that they had not planned for. Feige would easily be able to apply the Marvel formula to DC.

[@wcraigr]

I can't wait to hear their reaction to all the inevitable TCB comments 😂

[@darnbricks]

'TCB' is an acronym for 'Taking Care of Business' - Elvis' personal motto.

[@videogamenostalgia]

T aking C are of B Morbius

[@NicoRomeroLopez]

The timing on the "what?" in 16:15 was the funniest thing

[@TimothyMReynolds]

“TCB⚡️” was Elvis’s motto: “Taking Care of Business” with the lightning bolt.

[@ChildishGambeaner]

Wack

[@hegmonster]

How did you NOT mention the great performances of young Grace Mallory and young Stan Edgar during the Iran/Contra sequence? The actress appears to have studied directly with Laila Robins and young Stan at least studied the speech patterns of Giancarlo Esposito. They BOTH brought a lot to the flashback scene and sealed that shit tight.

[@DylanSunkel]

Sounds like James is ready to reboot this podcast.

[@myohmyDesign]

Does this mean that dog, 'aka the former Nick Mason', has now missed an episode? Does that mean James is now only running 1 episode behind Maso? And New Nick Mason has done 1 episode?

[@JoshLocke]

TCB ‘Takin Care Of Business’, it was a whole Elvis thing, he had a ring with it on.

[@markhairston614]

TCB was Elvis' catchphrase "Taking care of business"

[@dominicbeller8700]

I think you’re spot on with there being no actual Soldier Boy/Homelander killing gun, but Soldier Boy himself being the weapon. On the promotional material they list an energy blast ability and that he can take away the powers of those within his vicinity. Clearly he doesn’t have this ability in the 80s. So I think it’s safe to assume that these powers are something he acquires through Russian nonsense. And if that description is accurate, it definitely sounds like something that could at least really damage Homelander. Also Deep mentions Timothy the octopus is praying. Octopus/squid god? Cthulhu confirmed?

[@kingfield99]

Is this new Nick Mason a Multiplicity type situation or is it more like The 6th day?

Mason periodically drops these brief references to the Playstation Network show Powers, I really enjoyed it but I think I am the only person who did. It was low budget but had some serious potential in my opinion.

[@thats4thebirds]

“Yes mason. What are you f*cking deaf???”

[@michaeljeacock]

I am sure old Nick Mason would have known TCB was Elvis' logo not Baz Lerman's. taking care of business was his favourite quote and he would hand out tcb necklaces and his band was named the tcb band. old Nick would have known that.

A G-rated version could work much like it worked for any guy from 1990 who watched Goodfellas and then Home Alone, later that year, and thought that Joe Pesci's character from the latter is just a restrained version from the character of the former, hoping that he's going to curse in any minuto.

[@raulpetrascu2696]

I know the hunger games thing is based on a book but I like the way we're already doing legacy sequels/prequels of 2008 movies, at this rate we're going to get a nostalgic Avengers movie this christmas. It'll be like "You remember the Avengers, from your youth? They're back the Avengers are back just like the good old days, in theatres watch"

Mason, cmon mate. TCB stands for “Takin Care of Business,” which was Elvis’ motto and the name of the band he performed with for years. BazMark Films is the name of Luhrmann’s production company.

VENOM had the writer from 50 SHADES OF GREY MORBIUS had the writers from GODS OF EGYPT And KRAVEN THE HUNTER has the writers from TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT Sony's cinematic universe is doomed to fail And all because of AVI ARAD

[@lmabacus404]

Being the (co-)writer for 50 Shades of Grey is different from the other two as that was an adaptation, and by all accounts it's a slight improvement on the novel, within the constraint of how much control E. L. James had over the script.

[@gahbahrge]

I think The Boys is easily one of the best superhero shows of all time. The show is depraved, disturbing and cringe inducing in the best way possible, I feel that’s the only way to put it. The shrinking man scene made me full on cringe and fast forward to the end of it. It’s also hilarious that a “Superman” type character forces an “Aquaman” type character to eat an octopus. Absolutely outrageous.

[@krishadyn5211]

If you think this, you don't actually like the superhero genre.

[@gahbahrge]

@@krishadyn5211 the superhero genre is a massively broad sandbox to create many amazing stories. Not sure what your point is but I love all different types of superhero narratives, I think this story is the most well done for a tv series.
