Eating breakfast in my apartment in china listening to some guys chat 4 years ago about outdated pop culture events on my phone. if someone had asked me in 2001"where will you be in 20 years?" i would never have imagined. life is weird
John Carlos It should never be remade. I don't think they could repeat it at all well, because, for one thing, the studio would want the movie to make sense.
I think it's hard to beat the optimism of "Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins" when it comes to titling your franchise-launcher that fails to earn a sequel.
the venom news and similar situations should warrant an additional one hour podcast in those weeks. id be cool with two one hour podcasts each week instead of one two hour podcast even though i absolutely love the long style form and hearing them ramble about topics
Releasing details on the new Transformers before the current one is even released is like telling a guy leaving for his safari in Africa about how his being eaten by a polar bear in the arctic will go, after he finally recovers from the being mauled by a lion.
I know this is a 5 year old podcast, but I just have to vent that Brian Azzarello feels like the Alex Kurtzman of comics. He just keeps making bad Batman stories and is allowed to get bigger and bigger projects.
Perhaps even more obscure than Buckaroo Banzai is Doctor Detroit, which came out the year before, starring Dan Aykroyd, and teased "they lived happily ever after until...Doctor Detroit 2: The Wrath of Mom" (In the Wrath of Khan font -- This movie came out the year after Wrath of Khan)
I know this is 3 years to late. But Master and Commander ending I don't think was ever meant to be sequel bait. I know there's a shit ton of books in that series and that they wanted to make a sequel. But if they did make one I did think it would have had anything to do with ending of the first film. I think the ending was just a great way to end the film. As one of the biggest things the film is centered around the friendship between Crowe and Paul's character. And the tension between them where one is dead set on hunting the ship and his duty while the other is obsessed with science and studying animals. Yet they both end up sacrificing their goals for the other. So the end of the film was just a continuation of that. As Paul's character Stephen yet again had to give up his goal of searching the Galapagos so that Crowe character go inform the other ship that the surgeon the captured was in fact that Commander of the French Man O War. So it's not like you could continue from where that film left off as it would just be a boring conversation of one Commander telling the other that the prisoner they have is a Commander.
I can't believe you didn't mention the instant classic that is The Three Musketeers [2011] Great cast, but they managed to make a dogshit movie with a cliffhanger so absurd that I actually expected to see a sequel just to laugh at it But whatever, I hated Logan Lerman's D'Artagnan
33:15 HAHAHA! You guys crack me up when you mix up actors. Aaron Paul was in the Need for Speed Movie. Adrian Paul was the guy that played the Highlander in the TV series. Love you guy anyway.
toby could be the Peter that died. and have Andrew as future parallel mentor who's botched his own verse. obi preppy on a redemption arc. toby became a hipster and became disillusioned b4 getting a rip mj tatoo and fighting crime again to die that day. enter miles.
*I VOLUNTEER* -- leave the Rando's out of this.... I actually hunt :) _LET'S DO THIS THING!_ plus, i'm already cleaning my rifles.... I'm good to go... twitter.com/philverhey/status/876827971046211584 After I turn the table...Should I mount your heads over my TV or Bar?
I'm not sure but I think they were going to make a sequel to the Losers (2010) that never got made just because the villain is left alive at the end. I was also going to suggest The Man from UNCLE (2015) but apparently it might get a sequel.
I used to like the transformers films but I grown up a bit and also the 4th film ruined the look of all the robots. Expecially optimus. He looked awesome before now he looks like a big shit toy
If you go to the Guardian article, in the comments, there's a lot of weeklyplanet "classic phrases" such as grab dat gem and where's my pasghetti? I love idea of people from the Guardian reading these comments and going "...what?"
Danny Elfman has been making soundtrack for 3 decades and plenty super hero movies - think Sam Raimis Spiderman, Men In Black,The Hulk, Hellboy II ....Fifty Shades of Grey?
You take him out of that film and it's still not a good film. You would also need to change a shit ton of the terrible dialogue. The entire Padme and Anakin terrible dialogue that was also creepy as fuck. Would need to either recast Anakin completely or at least make his dialogue much much better. As he might be even worse then Jar Jar. Yea Jar Jar sucked but he was nothing more then a comedy relief character. Anakin on the other hand is a central character a character that the entire prequels are centered around. He freaking grows up to be Vader. So it was way worse to mess up his first appearance in the timeline.

I love the way they basically pitch Into the Spiderverse at 1:41:24 a whole year before it came out.
Whoa, I'm early!
The Weekly Planet Pod is something I'm always excited for.
If Buckaroo Bonzai is ever remade, it has to be done in that faux-80s/future era. Those costumes and that world are what made it so amazing.
John Carlos It should never be remade. I don't think they could repeat it at all well, because, for one thing, the studio would want the movie to make sense.
Animate you and Nick joking about Hollywood celebrities hunting people for sport! Brilliant!
The Last Airbender started with "book one". Pretty ham fisted
By arkham combat do you mean push "hit hit hit hit hit hit hit hit hit counter hit hit hit hit hit hit hit"?
Bill Brasky Assassin's Creed? anyone? Wait... COUNTERHIT.....Wait.....COUNTERHIT.....
roll. roll. hit. roll. roll. die. Dark Souls
I immediately checked for the dots in the description.....
I'm glad you did it
I think it's hard to beat the optimism of "Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins" when it comes to titling your franchise-launcher that fails to earn a sequel.
Love this podcast
the venom news and similar situations should warrant an additional one hour podcast in those weeks. id be cool with two one hour podcasts each week instead of one two hour podcast even though i absolutely love the long style form and hearing them ramble about topics
this would likely double your profits too
That split screen co-op game looks just like that Uncharted 4 mission where you escape from prison.. but probably like a day long
Love you guys.
Thanks for suggesting Do Go On.
You should totally do an episode of Caravan of Garbage on Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension!
The Mummy failed because of one simple reason: No Brendan Fraser.
HEY O'CONNELL
This was one of the best you've done in awhile. Great job!
Love how i tuned in to hear about movie news and end up hearing you guys talk about hunting people for sport lol! Love this show
I love Van Helsing; it's such ridiculous fun!!😀😀
LatinaFangirl same, the game was okay too. Not great, but a decent Devil May Cry clone.
DOY-YOY-YOY-YOY-YOING!
every since I've seen what James really looks like, i just picture him spinning a pen in his hand the whole time listening to these.
1:58:21... for more pod what?... POD WHAT?!
Releasing details on the new Transformers before the current one is even released is like telling a guy leaving for his safari in Africa about how his being eaten by a polar bear in the arctic will go, after he finally recovers from the being mauled by a lion.
53:46 James' incredulity as he reads the cast list from Buckaroo Banzai.
That qte where he's saving someone was from the spider-man 3 game thankfully
I hope Danny Elfman just recycles the 1989 theme with zero changes.
whole soundtrack Aquaman needs to strut to Prince.
Ajay Dahl The Flash: Flash Gordon Theme by Queen.
i know it doesn't make sense, but MAKE IT HAPPEN!
damn straight it dosen't need to make sense it just feels right
stairway2000 the down low is that junkie XL was booted for this reason....

The Rock & Jason Statham meet the Mummy!!!
Noble I think the Mummy should be hiding for its life if those two are after it.
Noble - IN the fast and furious universe, with their I-will-beat-you-like-a-Cherokee-drum relationship already established
What an incredible Spider-verse prediction
Loving this podcast. If you guys ever see this do that jazz intro please.
The Most Dangerous Game is actually a really good book. Thanks for adding that in. i smiled at the reference 😆

best use of adopting the south african accent is saying ''No,You Can't'' Ala Aklan Partridge
Spaceballs II: The Search for More Money
They literally predicted into the spider- verse like 2 years before.

Michael Bay in a monster truck with a rocket launcher ftw 😂
Starscream turning into ...a big pile of Coke. I snorted tea through my nose!
A podcast you guys should do is movies that have different meaning backwards
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who gets the author of Tarzan confused with the author of Peter Pan.
If she comes with the mattress I'm sold
Both Judge Dredd movies the Stallone one was a travesty but the Urban one deserved a sequel.
good work james, it cuts the promo at the end lol

Hunting people for sport. What a luxury!
I hope the Bubmlebee spinoff is a buddy cop deal.
"Sanchez! You and your VW are loose cannons! You're both suspended!"
I can't believe you didn't mention the instant classic that is The Three Musketeers [2011]
Great cast, but they managed to make a dogshit movie with a cliffhanger so absurd that I actually expected to see a sequel just to laugh at it
But whatever, I hated Logan Lerman's D'Artagnan
Gurgel Most of Logan Lerman's performances aren't great.
For the Abbott and Castello idea you just have to get Jake and Amir...
A kid who used to live down my street claimed his absent father was one of the Thunderbirds
Edward Norton definitely hunts people for sport.
33:15 HAHAHA! You guys crack me up when you mix up actors. Aaron Paul was in the Need for Speed Movie. Adrian Paul was the guy that played the Highlander in the TV series. Love you guy anyway.
I remember watching the after credits of Master of the Universe. Loved it at the time, but I wanted my Battle Cat.
I get the feeling Matthew McConaughey would hunt people for sport that name just came to my head when ye mentioned it
toby could be the Peter that died. and have Andrew as future parallel mentor who's botched his own verse. obi preppy on a redemption arc. toby became a hipster and became disillusioned b4 getting a rip mj tatoo and fighting crime again to die that day. enter miles.
I'm so happy you leave a hot chick so I won't get as bored
Boioioing

TWP is the best podcast ever.
Van Helsing is a great film, just a good hour or so of solid entertainment
*I VOLUNTEER* -- leave the Rando's out of this.... I actually hunt :) _LET'S DO THIS THING!_
plus, i'm already cleaning my rifles.... I'm good to go... twitter.com/philverhey/status/876827971046211584
After I turn the table...Should I mount your heads over my TV or Bar?
Danny Elfman also did the Simpsons! :)
I believe they referenced Elfman's Batman theme in suicide squad....
This episode is so interesting after all that has happened with Spider-Man (between 'Verse and No Way Home). Greetings from the fuuuuuuuture.
*NEXT WEEKS TOPIC!* What comicbook characters need a TV/Netflix show? (Spidy and Batman, of course)
Squirrel Girl!
Matt Mosley

I really want to see a shared tromo universe.
It should be the The Rock wrestler persona meets Dracula
I think planet of the apes ending is ment to mean that he was on another planet or alternative reality as a pose to the Charleston hasten version.
I'm not sure but I think they were going to make a sequel to the Losers (2010) that never got made just because the villain is left alive at the end. I was also going to suggest The Man from UNCLE (2015) but apparently it might get a sequel.

The first hitman movie was so so good, a really good action movie
I loved League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, but it certainly could have been much better
Liam O'Brien wrote to you guys???? O_o
The ending was annoying because like what was the whole Gabriel thing that was going on throughout the entire movie. Was never explained
Master and Commander was fucking awesome.
JXL did Mad Max Fury Road
Danny Elfman has been making soundtrack for 3 decades and plenty super hero movies - think Sam Raimis Spiderman, Men In Black,The Hulk, Hellboy II ....Fifty Shades of Grey?

One person doesn't ruin a movie, ahhhhhhhh Jar Jar Binks good sir.
You take him out of that film and it's still not a good film. You would also need to change a shit ton of the terrible dialogue. The entire Padme and Anakin terrible dialogue that was also creepy as fuck. Would need to either recast Anakin completely or at least make his dialogue much much better.
