544: Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice

Beetlejuice? Early episode of The Weekly Planet podcast with James, Maso and podcast dog. 00:00 The Start 06:35 Blade and/or Armor Wars Cancelled? 09:09 Ian McKellen on Gandalf Return 13:14 Oceans 14 Movie Happening 19:01 Minecraft Movie Trailer 24:43 Alien: Earth Series Trailer 27:05 Wolf Man Movie Trailer 30:22 DC’s Creature Commandos Release 36:40 Josh (more…)

Hellboy (Extended)

In 2019 Lionsgate attempted the unimaginable, a reboot of the Hellboy franchise after the much beloved Guillermo del Toro and Ron Pearlman dead cancelled trilogy. With David Harbour stepping into the role and directed (sort of) by Neil Marshall it was a critical and commercial bomb. HOWEVER as a movie some perhaps feel that it’s been judged unfairly especially considering the mythology, creature work, world building and story. Thanks for checking out of Caravan Of Garbage review

543: The Crow & Gambit Returns

Now you’re the crow… yessssssssss (early podcast) 00:00 The Start 03:21 Joker: Folie à Deux Box Office 08:40 Jurassic Park: Rebirth First Look 15:28 Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Trailer 19:24 Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story Trailer 20:59 First Look at The Thing (Fantastic 4: First Steps) 24:20 New Gambit Footage from Deadpool & Wolverine 28:59 (more…)

Terminator 2: Judgement Day (Extended)

What started as a fairly simple slasher premise (robot gets sent back from the future to kill the mother of the future saviour of mankind but also she gets sent a human protector whom also happens to be the childs father) very quickly evolved into one of the biggest action movies of all time. Terminator 2: Judgement Day has both Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton return as the T-800 and Sarah Connor in a race to prevent the future war and protect John Connor from the T-1000, a mimetic polyalloy machine, aided by ground breaking abilities/special effects. Great movie. No notes

542: The Acolyte Cancelled & Blink Twice

It’s time for podcasting! Sorry for the delay but it’s my (James’) fault UK Tour Tickets for Sanspants x The Weekly Planet available here: https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ Special Tour T-Shirt! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd3xR91FK9ogXVnTyGRH07RvgR4GPHTfQkzJvyfEN06mFbCBw/viewform 00:00 The Start 4:07 Rotten Tomatoes new system 7:27 The Acolyte is cancelled forever 16:11 Lord of the Rings: The War Of Rohim 18:52 Megalopolis draaaama (more…)

The Terminator (Extended)

The Terminator 1984 is an absolute all out sci-fi action classic. The brainchild of director James Cameron and producer Gale Anne Hurd it introduced the world to the titular Terminator as played by then rising star Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton’s Sarah Connor the mother of future savior John Connor along with Michael Biehn as Kyle Reece a soldier sent back through time to protect Sarah. Essentially an extremely well executed slasher movie it holds up extremely well some four decades later and kicked off a franchise that like the Terminator itself refuses to die. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

541: Alien: Romulus (with Alexei Toliopoulos)

Big and early podcast! You can find Alexei’s great work here: https://linktr.ee/ThisisAlexei UK Tour Tickets for Sanspants x The Weekly Planet available here: https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ 00:00 The Start 04:28 Kraven Trailer 10:24 Thunderbolts* Leaked Trailer 17:58 Eternals 2 Cancelled Probably 18:43 Beau DeMayo vs Disney/Marvel/X-Men 22:59 Disney Plus Legal Death Trap News 26:30 Hugh Jackman Staying (more…)

Alien: Resurrection (Extended)

It’s time to wrap up the Ellen Ripley Alien film series with a look at what’s probably the weakest entry, Alien: Resurrection. Set two hundred years after the last and bring back Sigourney Weaver as a clone of the original Ripley it has all the thrills and chills of the best Alien movies but not as good. Sure there’s some fun stuff in it like breath verification and a basketball shot people won’t shut up about but other stuff like the xenomorphy/human hybrid just fall flat. Thanks for checking out this Caravan Of Garbage series!

540: Borderlands & D23 Round-Up (Marvel, Star Wars, Tron 3)

Early podcast! D23 woo? Borderlands boo? Thanks for listening? UK live show tickets can be found here: https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ 00:00 The Start 03:02 Big Losses at Warner Bros. 08:35 Gambit Solo Movie Questions 13:25 Zack Snyder Zombie Franchise Cancelled 16:31 Nick Mason Foot Update 17:26 D23 News Start 17:56 Moana 2 Trailer & Dwayne Johnson’s Monster (more…)

Alien 3 (Extended)

Opinions of Alien 3 are certainly divided. Off the back of the terrific first two entries expectations were high for the return of Ellen Ripley, Hicks and Newt but things didn’t exactly turn out well for 66% of those characters. Taking things back to the single monster scare of Alien 1979 David Fincher does his best to elevate the story whilst constantly wrestling with the studio with what resulted in a movie he still very much hates to this day. But Alien 3 is certainly not without it’s redeeming qualities. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

539: New Avengers Movie Rumours & Trap Review

Early podcast featuring your regular grab bag of comic book movie news, trailers ahoy and a new film review. Thanks for listening! 00:00 The Start 06:08 Deadpool & Wolverine’s Box Office Success 08:35 Big Marvel Payday’s for Russo Bros & Robert Downey Jr. 16:36 Future Avengers Movie Rumours & Scrapped Kang Dynasty Plans 24:25 Captain (more…)

Aliens (Extended)

There are very few sequels that are able to match the original or potentially surpass it. James Cameron’s Aliens is one of those films. Arriving in 1986 seven years after the last it marks the return of Sigorney Weavers Ellen Ripley whom is awoken from cryosleep 57 years after the events of Alien 1979. Great movies and good vibes. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review

538: Deadpool & Wolverine and SDCC 2024

Alien (Extended)

Alien 1979 is a beautiful combination of sci-fi and horror which has rarely been replicated since. With Ridley Scott’s direction, HR Giger’s unique visual design, unsettling special effects, tight script and a unique exploration of both alien life and artificial intelligence it’s no wonder it went to spawn multiple sequels, prequels and spin offs. Probably too many really. Thanks for checking out or Caravan Of Garbage review

537: The Acolyte, The Boys & Longlegs

Early podcast! Three big reviews! Thanks for listening! 00:00 The Start 03:24 Big Marvel Disney Hack 08:32 The Russos Return for Avengers Movies 10:27 RDJ Return Rumour for the MCU 11:26 Captain America: Brave New World Trailer 18:58 Terminator Zero Trailer 20:26 Tenacious D Donald Trump Controversy 24:28 Kumail Nanjiani as Booster Gold 26:14 Rebel (more…)

Logan (Extended)

We’re finishing off the Wolverine Trilogy with what’s considered it’s strongest entry, Logan. A reflection on aging, loss, grief, parenthood and what it means to stab a bunch of people with your clone daughter. Terrific performances all round and an incredible ending to Hugh Jackman’s tenure as the titular character. It’s a shame we’ll never see him again because he died. Thanks for checking out our Caravan Of Garbage review

The Wolverine (Extended)

We’ve hit the middle child of the Wolverine trilogy with 2013’s The Wolverine! Acting as a redemption arc for both the character and the response to X-Men Origins: Wolverine a burnt out Logan heads on over to Japan for action, romanace, trauma and to fight an old man in a giant shiny robot suit. Thanks for checking out our Caravan Of Garbage review

X-Men Origins: Wolverine (Extended)

With Hugh Jackman returning as Logan in Deadpool & Wolverine we’ve decided to take a look at the Wolverine Trilogy, starting with the first and the worst X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Acting also as the live action introduction of Deadpool it has all the ingredients of a great X-Men adventure and yet it falls down at almost every step it takes.

Kick-Ass 2 (Extended)

Due to the moderate success of the first Kick-Ass a sequel was greenlit almost immediately titled Kick-Ass 2. With most of the characters returning (despite some recasts) and the addition of new heroes like Jim Carrey’s Colonel Stars and Stripes the stakes have never been higher for Dave Lizewski and Hit-Girl! But the vibes are off. Thanks for checking out our Caravan Of Garbage review

Kick-Ass (Extended)

In 2010 we got the second live action Mark Millar comic adaptation in Kick-Ass. Set in the “real world” where superheros only exist in fiction it follows Dave Lizewski as the first person to done a costume and fight crime. The result was something brutal, bloody and funny and a film that was fairly unique for the time enough that it became a moderate success. Thanks for checking out our Caravan Of Garbage review

Assassin’s Creed (Extended)

Assassin’s Creed 2016 is Ubisofts second attempt to bring one of their beloved video game franchises to the screen. And the results were yet again…lacking. Headed up by Michael Fassbender playing the duel role of a future guy and ancient history guy it parkours it’s way in and around the neverending battle between the Assassin Order and the Templars for a glowing apple that can probably do something.

Warcraft (Extended)

WAR. And craft. Well I’ve never heard of such a thing but regardless let’s get into the 2016 Warcraft film adaptation directed by Duncan Jones. Acting as an origin story for the conflict between the orcs of Draenor and the humans of Azotha it both sides this epic conflict with more motion capture than the average brain can possibly comprehend.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (Extended)

It’s time for move bad movies that did badly at the box office video game edition! This week, 2010’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time starring one Jacob Gyllenhaal as the titular Prince Dastan. It basically boiled down to this being Disney’s attempt at another Pirates of the Caribbean but instead of turning out like Pirates of the Caribbean it turned out like that bad Pirates of the Caribbean.

Max Payne (Extended)

We’re kicking off a brand new series with a look at four terrible video game movies that are bad and did badly. Starting with 2008’s Max Payne starring Mark Wahlberg. Aiming to capture the tragedy, action and frenetic energy of the original two games it absolutely does not. But at the same time as discussed it certainly takes the franchise to a new level. In a way. Thanks for watching our Caravan Of Garbage review.
