Star Wars The Last Jedi - The Weekly Planet Podcast 

Assuming that anyone who liked something you disliked/disliked something you like is being paid is the definition of narcissism.

Nobody hates Star Wars like Star Wars fans. That's totally true.

Star Wars Episode IX: Attack of the Mack Weldon

Looking back on it, it’s truly hilarious that all the fan backlash to The Last Jedi gave us Rise of Skywalker which is definitely a much worse movie and I think that’s pretty funny

50:30 Porgs were actually a solution for a real life problem. Shooting on Skellig Michael, they couldn't avoid having the occasional puffin in the back of the shot. So Porgs as something to superimpose over the puffins. Then they just integrated them into the rest of the film a bit.

They should have taken a different direction with Finn/Rose's sidestory, which was really sub-par, and probably make the humor less prequel-y, but other than that it was a really enjoyable movie. I can even disregard the weird sequence with Leia supermaning herself through space, even though that didn't feel right at all. Everything with Rey, Luke, and Kylo Ren was incredible!!

The last Jedi feels like a movie set 40 years after the original trilogy.

If you look closely during the Luke/Kylo battle, "Luke" never leaves any footprints and Kylo does

To answer your Hux question, yeah you basically nailed it. His dad was one of the founding members of the First Order and a high ranking imperial general prior to that.

Also i think everyone always forgets about the retelling of the Luke/Young Ben scene. When Luke is telling it, the story is pretty different from how Kylo saw it

James's rant about Catholicism is one for the ages.

Luke never was a flippy guy because he wasn't trained to be. In the prequels the Jedi trained all the time. Luke barely got any training, not to mention he was already an adult when he started. You can't suddenly train in gymnastics at 21.

with admiral ackbar gone how are we going to know there are any traps Also #jediskillz

I love this podcast dearly. Thank you mr sunday and the infamous MASO for doing what you do. This weekly gift has given me many laughs and i have enjoyed the goods from your various sponsors in support of such wondrous content. You are two beautiful human beings.

Also, Luke probably has a dufflebag full of lightsabers on his island from all the dead Jedi he was training

He's gotta drink the milk - it's that or salt water, right?

“Ill bet my life.. I’ll bet Nick Mason’s life that those Dice ..” 😂 I died right then

Yoda looked wierd to me initially but I got past it

About "the dice". Solo's dice. Leia's dead husbands dice. The dice of the dead husband being handed to her by her long lost brother who's is now about to go on a suicide mission-dice. Those "dice'. They end up "ON THE FLOOR"? I guess she just tossed them over her shoulder.

All my friends and my wife and I all enjoyed it, and we'll be watching it again Wednesday. We may all think alike because we're friends but as far as I've seen only whiny people in comment sections haven't liked it lol.

1:18:00 damn james with the 17 brain wisdom. I know im 3 years late to this video but i love these guys lol

A bleeped Deadpool movie with those digitized windows to block nudity could be the most hilarious thing of all. The whole movie he would keep trying to sneak it in, he would comment on his one "fuck" he can say in a PG-13, and he'd be comically miserable the whole time. You could even use it as an excuse for why he doesn't kill the villain at the end. "It's not worth it if you're not even gonna show it..." One camera would catch him trying to bribe one of the other cameramen to let something through. You could do this once, and it would kill.

Star Wars: Electric Boogaloo

I think 911 is the film where Halle Berry is the 911 operator who gets a call from a girl being kidnapped in the trunk of a car and saves her at the end

Every week you guys remind me why I love you so much

Luke's last moment was awesome, idgaf what anyone says. He used the FORCE to defeat his opponents, as opposed to lightsaber tricks n shit

Holy sh*t I was at the midnight screening for the last Jedi at Knox city. Holy sh*t that's cool

I wish Finn and Poe had more time together. They seem like really good friends but we see so little of that friendship.

I still don't think Luke would even consider killing Ben, especially before he had even turned. It totally disregards his entire arc of the whole first trilogy, in which he realises his father still has good in him, and realised violence was not the solution, and would have been an action approved by the Emperor. I think wanting to stop that again immediately by killing Ben is irrelevant. I still argue it's against his character.

do an EVERY EASTER EGG for ready player one when it comes out!

Great episode! Really like this movie and you're analysis, speacially when you talk about whay yoda said about jedi's dogma

Interesting thoughts! Thanks for sharing guys!

I think it would've been good if Finn had died. Even if it had been a pointless death, that's the point. They're a small resistance against the super powerful first order, not every sacrifice will lead to victory, sometimes people just die without meaning.

Noice content, boi. It's my highlight of every Monday

Im not that big on star wars, but the more I think about this movie the more I like it. It's now one of my top 10 best sci-fi movies ever.

Poor James and Mason. Little did we all know what ass pull was to await us in the next film...

Why is it that when Mason goes "Mmmmh!" during the deminting of the All In, I imagine him rubbing it all into his beard. Also, was on the fence about TLJ but looking at all the stupid things they did in the now Legends...I am now fine with everything beside that Leia thing.

i always get so hype to watch the movie listening to this :D😀

The idea of Mark Hamill in a Coen Brothers film makes me happier than most ideas.

Spoiler: the green lightsaber is in Luke tent, at the beginning scene, is hanging broken you can see the cristal. 80% sure

Watch this review again reminds me of why I disliked Rise of Skywalker so damn much. As the things I loved the most about TLJ. Were basically just thrown away and then pissed on by JJ or anyone else who had a say in this film. Like you guys I loved that Rey was just a nobody for the first time in the main franchise the MC was just a nobody. As Anakin was just Space Jesus and then Luke was his son. Yet instead of sticking with that and Rey being just some girl who parents dumped her on some shit planet. But no instead of sticking with it they had to be like actually she's related to Palpatine. I still don't know in which way as what what Rey even be to Palpatine if she's the daughter of a Clone of his. And then they also do the whole no Snoke was actually just some created living being that Palpatine was controlling the entire time. Also disliked that turned Kylo back to the light side. I mean I would have been fine with it if they did it in a better way. But still was hoping his actions in the later stages of TLJ were them cementing him as a villain who will never be swayed to join the light side. Then it's never a good thing when the battle at the start of TLJ was better then the climatic battle of the last film in this trilogy. And that ending just had me cringing and rolling my eyes so hard. When she's asked what her last name is and she say's Skywalker. Killing the entire point the movie was trying to make which is it doesn't matter who you are. But it obviously does enough for Rey not to be known as a Palpatine and would rather be known as a Skywalker.

Is it possible to download this podcast??

"They're still going to be doing fiction, Mason, if you know what I'm talking about..." #gold

My favorite scene is when the Yuuzhan Vong fight the evil spirit of Exan Kun. Then Lobacca takes his Bronze lightsaber and murders Kyle Katarn.

I'm so glad my google home device can play this podcast. Makes the investment worth it

Just got to see last Jedi today I bloody loved it the bit where she crashes the ship 🤯my only gripe is no knights of ren!!! Fingers crossed there in the next one

I feel like they completely mishandled Luke. For me, it's not about fan boy bullshit. I didn't care about seeing him with his green lightsaber or anything like that, I feel like the idea that he would even CONSIDER murdering his nephew without even talking about it with Han or Leia (or even Ben himself) is just ridiculous. The man wouldn't even strike down the 2nd most evil man in the galaxy in ROTJ.

Do you perhaps see a chance of there being a love story between Ben and Rey, a ReyBen if you will, I think that could be very dramatic and soap opera-esque and fun, and also open up a chance of a sponsorship deal between Ray-Ban and SW. Ray-Ban for Rey-Ben!

That Fox zinger. 😂

Maybe Rian Johnson will do a Reven Trilogy, what would you think about that!?

I miss the awesome score the movies used to have. I mean, there is obviously the known themes like Leia's Theme or the Force theme, but so far there haven't been any of the epic scores that stood out even while watching the movies. I miss the epicness. (Like e.g. "Duel of the Fates", "Imperial March", "Battle of the Heroes", that love theme from episode 2, that song that plays when Anakin marches into the Jedi temple... )The music that leaves you with goosebumps and the urge to swing a lightsaber. I hope they bring in some new cool themes for the next episode.

That religious rant was spot on hahaha, love it

1:37:05 "This is something completely different THEN the original trilogy." Literally next H8 comment, "Another rehash of the original trilogy!"

Are you going to sign the box! Is it the one that you already opened;) like used stuff lol

The cave scene with the mirrors made me think Luke had a similar experience in the cave and learned to force project that way.

You'll lie for money? I'll give you 4 quid to say "chickens have got teeth"

Biggest plot hole in the film, which says a lot considering this plot, when the decoder sold out the resistance, how does he know the resistance's plan? Finn and Rose don't know the plan because the only person who knew the plan was the purple hair lady.

Re-listening to this podcast as a sort of pre-game for Rise of Skywalker :) curious to know if any of your feelings have changed after 2 years? I too loved TLJ. I always understood SOME of the gripes people had with the movie. Then I re-watched all the originals and prequels the other day and I feel like I understand even more so the fans craving more fan service. But honestly i still love TLJ!

Canto bight was such a waste of time

I agree with ya'll 100% i thought i was alone with my thought of the movie!

Finally bloody gave in and listened to this glorious podcast! If Finn and Rose were supposed to be a romantic thing, i hope they had more chemistry than Finn and Poe. I saw Finn and Rose as those classmates who get assigned to work on a project together and they're just kinda chill.

There is a difference between Luke killing people and cold blooded murder.

Thank you mason for correcting his pronunciation of the last later of the alphabet because it's Zed

I loved everything in the last Jedi except Luke because at the end of Return of the Jedi Luke says “I am a Jedi like my father before me” and they just threw it away

39:00 he played the Trickster in the Flash tv show and I didn't even realise it was him.

Ok. I think the anger has passed, and just the sadness remains. I do appreciate hearing your perspectives. There are things that I "missed"(I am more of the belief that it wasn't presented very well bc you've seen it twice, but whatever). But when I watch movies, I do not go in with a preconceived notion of what I expect or want. I don't need abc and d checked off to make me happy, at least not on a conscious level. I go into movies and wait to see how they make me feel. And this just did not work. Going back and nitpicking what I disliked about the parentage reveal, or some of the humor, or the unneeded commentary, or bad story telling mechanics(this planet has child slaves. hey! there are some being beaten now that you can watch, to drive home my point) is a secondary notion. Going back and reminiscing about the things I liked(rey/kylo, and that moment when you honestly did not know what was going to happen next being so exciting) is secondary. The primary thing is how the movie made me feel during the movie. And I just felt off. And empty. I do not think this works as 'Rian Johnson's unspecified space adventure movie', nor would it have worked if it were Martin Scorsese's Star Wars. This movie, as edited and directed and written, just does not work. I would have loved if it had. I actually really enjoyed the last 2 movies. Not here.

We better see a kylo vs knights of ren fight !

I could see them using the time (and/or reality) stone to go back and insert the newly acquired properties into the MCU.

The Last Jedi was bloody brilliant mate. Thoroughly enjoyed it dont @ me

Since disney bought fox, are we going to get the theatrical edition of a new hope on blu ray?

You know what would have made it better? Hux trying to order the first order to fire on Kylo while he was distracted down below to try and take Supreme Leader for himself.

can we have a weekly segment were you guys just comment on the problems with organised religion and get really passive agressive about it pleaseeeeeeeee

1:40:44 You are very right about that James

Great show.. I think if they exploded the bridge and when the fire/smoke clears Leia is just floating in her original spot using the force it would have had more impact .. she could have just been there staring at Kylo Ren .. and 2 nice shots on their eyes locking would have done the job

I loved the movie, wasn't perfect but it took a lot of risks and most of which paid off.

I think the Rose kiss was because she thought she was going to die.

I don't remember, What was the bet?

1:12:00 BB-8 was who got them caught. His evil cousin saw BB-8 stumbling around under the trash can.

No real spoilers, but I was so ready for the green lightsaber to make an appearance at the end

I want a t-shirt of Sir Darryl of the Knights of Ren.

I'll say this before hearing their review, but The Last Jedi somehow had the best and worst moments of the entire saga simultaneously. I give it a "It's just a movie" rating.

The tracking device on board the rebel ship was CLEARLY BB-9E! Am I the only one that saw him in the corner of like 2 different shots on the rebel ship?

I love how I completely agree with their opinions

1:35:42 "What do they want from Phasma?" Snu Snu. The answer is Snu Snu. You're welcome.

You better do an Easter eggs video for Ready Player One

That asterios dude who made the ackbar ad videos is actually being sued for 20 million dollars

The smartest thing to do with the Xmen is use them after Infinity War. They don't have too many storylines to do except for Secret Wars. By introducing mutants, it could be new storylines to have after the Avengers go up against a god.

Don't know whether he'll stick to his word but Benicio Del Toro announced he would stop acting and that this film was his last. Then again, plenty of actors retire and come back for other roles but, he did say that.

Hot scoop! I think I´ve finally figured out the thought process behind the new trilogy - if Force Awakens is basically a remake of A New Hope and Last Jedi is pretty much a remake of Empire with Return of the Jedi thrown in for good measure, there is only one way Episode 9 can go - with our heroes going to visit Chewie´s family on fake Christmas!! Hell yeah, let´s remake the Holiday Special! :D I knew there was a reason they keep releasing the films right before xmas :D #StarWarsEpisodeIXTheHolidaySpecial

Carrie ws great, but don't say how she was _"an excellent writer"_ when you never read anything she wrote. She never had anything produced other than films she was hired to do drafts on. Come on, man.

I just wanna say f*** the gold dice. They didn't pander to the audience in TLJ what makes people think they are going to do it with the gold space dice in the Solo film. PS loved TLJ improved my love for FA giving it context & added all sorts of surprises & subverted expectations. I don't know what films all these original trilogy loyalists are watching. None of the characters were developed outside of the core three. Boba Fett was just some dude in the background who later dies in a sarlac pit.The expanded universe books is where all the added info now retconed came from. You fill in the blanks with your wonderment & imagination. Keep up the surprises Lucas Films. Loved it!

Touchstone was another company Disney used for features that had an R rating keep up the good work 😉😊

Finally, someone that understands my fear of horses!

Mr Sunday is the kinda guy to point the Jedi Challenge lightsaber at his face and be disappointed that it doesn’t cut his face off.

I know a guaranteed way to make an episode 9 everyone will love. Star Wars Episode IX: The Fall of Jar Jar

I assumed it was Obi Wan's lightsaber at the end. I didn't get a good look at the hilt.

I really liked the complex love interests in this movie. I like that it's not clear cut and super dramatic.

Batman v Superman got a best movie ever by Mr. Sunday Movies, now so did The Last Jedi... so now his opinions on movies are worthless to me.

My brother also thought it was Brad Pitt.
