Wonka Prequel - The Weekly Planet Podcast

[@Bojake]

I’d like to start a petition to use the sound byte of mason saying “we the best podcast” as the new intro

[@DarkachuWasTaken]

I'd sign that petition

[@titaniumman02]

This show has given me so much entertainment, even in just the couple of months that i've known about it.. Thank you for the perpetually effervescent charm and silliness, fellas.

It’s a shame there’s never be a Great Glass Elevator movie.

[@eastvandb]

I was just over on Big Sandweech, listening to episode 159 of 'Suggestible' (where you two recommended two movies I really enjoyed: Weird: the Al Yankovic movie and Caterhine Called Birdy), and towards the end James made the questionable claim, "I'm normal." Just to let you know how deeply I've been brainwashed, I immediately said out loud, "a normal man doing normal things". I'm lost, I have no mind of my own, there is only the podcast(s).

[@SaulGMV]

It’s a shame because “Rebel Moon” in the context of a space story is such an enticing title and concept, but then they had to tack on “child of fire: armageddon: chapter 1” or whatever and now it sounds like a generic young adult post apocalyptic novel or a generic mobile game franchise.

[@Malky5279]

Wonk the line should be the sequel after Wonka's life takes a darker turn after his chocolate habit gets out of control after embarking on an unexpectedly successful music career. I really enjoyed Wonka though, suitably feel good and uplifting for Christmas.

[@TurboRumble]

Now is a good time to rewatch Michael Mann's 'Heat' for Caravan of Garbāge before Michael Mann's 'Ferrari'. I bet you may or may not remember that Natalie Portman is in it as a kid.

Is it me or does he look like Hayden Christensen in the Thumbnail??

[@myautobiographyafanfic1413]

The thing I was happiest about was Rich Fulcher. The thing I was least happy about was how Wonka was a good guy. Considering, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory is about him attempting to kill kids.

[@SirSeabass]

Oh man. I was so excited for the Bikie Man movie adaptation on Disney.

[@smacksalad]

[@Itabouttodo]

Y’all should do a segment called “hate mail” but the hate should have an 8 in it, cuz it’s cool.

[@jacobp8294]

This idea is incredible. I think we should do this immediately

[@Dorian_sapiens]

I like this idea! They could even say the "8" in "h8t" represented there being eight hate mails per segment―but then they could add a layer of humor by never actually reading eight hate mails.

[@bobdylan1968]

The problem with the rock in serious dramas and films that arent action stuff, is that the guy is MASSIVE. its now to the point where its at his detriment. Irs hard to put a guy like that in normal roles. Is every character he does just going to have to have some sort of body building background added?? Like its impossible to ignore. He cant be a struggling single, normal dad, that youd see in your neighborhood. He just doesnt look normal in any way. Stands out like s sore thumb. Very hard to get immersed in the idea hes a normal dude and not a giant action star muscle man.

[@wokeandroid]

I kinda want to see you guys review aquaman though so you can maybe tear it apart. Then again maybe you guys will tear apart rebel moon maybe if you hated it.

[@NiallByrne]

That If movie's entire idea comes off as a copy / origin story for Fosters Home for imaginary friends.

[@JakeGottfriedStudios]

It's honestly something where I imagine he came up with the idea on his own and didn't check to see if it had been done before. I never watched the show but if I had to compare it, this movie looks like a prequel to how that shows world works, at least what I read on IMDb

[@CrowTRobot]

There’s also a horror movie I saw on SyFy about an imaginary friend named “Pretzel Jack”. The premise was the same but I’m sure Krasinski’s movie won’t end with multiple murders 😂

Is the Keanu replacement also a remake. I know Sandler's Longest Yar is. But why am I thinking that Replacement is also the same.

[@happiaxxident]

Left a Like for Velvet.

[@SirDanGoodfellow]

I liked Rise of Skywalker, and the whole trilogy to be honest. The whole thing was a crazy badly planned out mess full of incongrously decided plot and character lurches, plot holes that only a nox fuelled sense of childish excitement could jump Burt Reynolds style, and the sense that the whole show was a series of course corrections without any actual first planned move to go wrong. Basically it felt like original trilogy Star Wars again......... and whilst i believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, i was born in 1975 and feel that my xmas list choices for the best part of a decade funded Lucasfilm and without me no one of a younger age would have experienced anymore star wars past the Holiday Special. So basically , first; you're all welcome, and second; my opinion on Rise of Skywalker is the only one that counts, and that includes everyone who made the film too..... now get the hell off my lawn!

[@SirDanGoodfellow]

......... also i have no real opinion about any of the Wonka movies , and will fight to defend this position...........

[@arch1017]

Yeah, I know Rise gets a lot of (justifiable) hate, but I think it was a big ask - to take the mess that TLJ left them with and somehow craft a movie that could act as an end to the trilogy, and the Skywalker Saga as a whole, while satisfying the entire fanbase. Doomed from the start, really. And yet, when I think back to the Sequel Trilogy, most of the moments I look back on fondly are from Rise...

Back in the day they would have happily marketed Aquaman as “the end of an era” suggesting you had to see this last movie to find out how it all ends but I guess they’ve conditioned people to believe these should never end.

Zachary Levi's comments were intentionally taken out of context by bad actors who want him to suffer because they perceive him as right-wing. It's really no different from how people went after Gunn because of his previous edgy jokes. Hopefully Gunn realizes that.

I wish Zack Snyder had just stuck with his zombie universe. It wasn't great, but those two movies were entertaining. Rebel Moon is relentless mediocre and a sad waste of a lot of great actors' time.

[@mallios13]

"It's not magic, it's technology!" Clearly "magitech/magitek" and "alchemy" are not concepts understood in Australia. Nor apparently the basic fact that if something defies physics, it's just magic. "But a device was used!" Yes, because nobody has ever used wands, crystal balls, or anything like that as magical devices. Having more moving parts and looking more like conventional technology doesn't stop magic from being magic. If it doesn't abide by physics, it's magic.
