Defenders of the earth was still in the mix but it stood no chance compared to the crushing weight of like 7 years worth of the og all stacked up against the measly 10 months worth of defenders of the earth episodes
HAPPY 500! Just to reiterate James comments at the end (i listened to this on Spotify before) if there's something you are interested in...JUST DO IT! When i started listening to the pod back in 2015 i was drowning in debt and had no direction among other things, i then started getting back into drawing and now i have a brand and a community and no more debt, and James and Maso were a big part of giving me to kick to do it! Here's to another 500!
Congrats on being lucky. Look, Ive pursued at least 3 things seriously and none of them ever went anywhere. Now I'm in my mid 40s and work at a bank and hate life. So most of the time pursuing what you love doesn't work out.
@parkmannate4154 having an attitude like that ensures it. Failure is part of learning and is nowhere near as bad a thing as giving up. Keep going mate you can find something you love. Others can, why not you?
Fun fact I've always wanted to tell you guys but it never felt like the appropriate time; when I started listening to this podcast it was episode 291. On my podcast app, Google Podcasts, it was titled "291 Weird Versions of Spider-Man" and I thought "Wow they're going to cover so many different versions I've never heard of before, what a cool podcast!" obviously I figured out my blunder quickly, and I've been a devoted Monday morning listener every single week since then. Thanks for all the entertainment you've given me over the years, all the hard times you guys have helped me get through, and all the belly laughs that left me struggling to breathe. Congratulations on 500 James and Maso.
It’s so weird how many different phases of my life have been spent listening to the weekly planet. I used to on the way home from one of my first jobs. I’ve now listened to you when I’ve done traffic management, night work at hotel, reception at gym, serving coffee on a train and now while doing waste management. You made every job easier ❤
That compilation video was something else. It's great that you mentioned it. Not everyone would have. You really are a cut above the rest James. Thanks for being entertaining and motivational.
Speaking from a Visual effects artist stand point, the more studios actually plan things before and during shooting the better things look. 9 times out of 10 if effects look bad it's because very little planning was done or they change their mind during post production (it happens way too often)
If anyone is interested in other aboriginal stories, Samson & Delilah is quite a good indie film from a few years ago, and Cleverman tv series is an interesting take on an aboriginal superhero concept
54:26 Exodus Gods & Kings was the Ridley Scott film - not Gods of Egypt!! Other than that, keep up the great work, you guys rock and brighten up the days!
Fell asleep on my couch after work. Woke up close to midnight and out the new episode on. Not sure if I'm still dreaming or in some loki realm, the new tunes are bonkers
So, James, now that 500 episodes are under the belt, the people want to know: what are your very strong and deeply considered thoughts about Thom Yorke's third solo studio album, Anima?
huge congrats on 500! been following this channel since i was in middle school and i’m 22 now, still my absolute favorite podcast and by far the best way to keep in touch with the entertainment industry, keep up the amazing work! love you guys
Tony Moore, the OG TWD artist, included a bunch of his internetbuddies as background zombies in the first few TWDs. As a result, I'm in a few panels of TWD #1. Nobody ever thought it would be so huge.
Its gonna be a real let down when someone in 3036 listens to all 10000 of these at hyper injection speeds even after Mason took over with the cyber dog and realizes that they never ever got to the movie Snake Eyes
I know this will get lost in the ether..but I somehow stumbled upon this podcast during the covid lockdowns. I have been a avid listener since. Congrats on the 500th. You really got me through the dark times of not being able to leave my room. Thank you boys for giving endless laughs since. Hoping for another 500. I have now seen myself use the same one liners and type of humor you both do in my conversations and I am a better person b/c of it. Love yall.
I am generally onboard with all of your picks, which is why it's so jarring when you didn't like Rampage but DID like Brightburn. Rampage is terrible but in a charming way. Brightburn can't decide what it wants to be. It promised a "What if Superman decided to be evil," but instead gave us, "what if we spent all this time building up how cool this kid was and how great his parents are and then just throw all that out to make him a creep with super powers?"
500 episodes over ten years, im glad i found out about these guys this year so i can enjoy all thats before without running out of content for whats new
Happy 500 you guys are my favorite Australian channel! For movies and entertainment i have you guys from Australia, Redlettermedia from the U.S and Off The Shelf Reviews from the UK!
Happy 500 lads, glad to have been tuning in to hear your lovely Aussie voices discuss all things media for the better part of the last decade. See you at 501
Oh man. Snake Eyes is in the thumbnail. And when we get to 2021, they even say "we'll get to it, if we have the time". God-damn I love their dedication to the bit! LOL
HAPPY 500 Y'ALL!! I only got into your channels and shows in 2020, but I've been a super proud fan ever since! It's awesome to see how much you guys have grown, and I cannot wait to see what comes next!!!!
I was going to listen to all the good films after listening to this on Spotify, realised I had forgotten what any of them were, came on the RUclips comments section to see if anyone had written them. Now I have to contemplate whether I can be arsed to listen for them again to find out myself! Great 500 episodes, Hopefully at least 2 more!
Yall do great effortlessly hilarious work. I love how the podcast is done in a professionally unprofessional manner. 😂🤣🙃 Been a fan from the start. Thanks for all the entertainment. It has really gotten me through some rough times at work. Looking forward to 500 more 👍 Say high to Rodney for me 😁
Well, well, well ... a sign that it's time to come up with something new, maybe? Bloody gotcha! You guys are the best! Well done on the 500, here's to 500 more!
Oh yeah, congrats my dudes!!! It's been a while since you've broken 2 hours...good way to celebrate and kick off the week and autumn and the rest of our lives....you are welcome for the cosmic introspection...do you see what you inspire; lol not just car accidents...good day mates
It sounds like they confused Gods of Egypt with Exodus: Gods and Kings which was the Ridley Scott directed sequel that came out two years earlier than the original.
To tie two podcast points together; in 2014 there was a THIRD Hercules movie on top of the one with the Rock and "the other one." It was called Hercules Reborn and it stars ANOTHER WRESTLER, the chap best known as John Morrison in WWE.
54:19 as someone named Moses I feel compelled to correct you guys on this. Exodus Gods and Kings was Ridley Scott and was bad. You were describing Alex Proyas's Gods of Egypt which was somehow exponentially worse and forever tainted my view of Chadwick Boseman
31:11 My mate worked at Mamoa's favourite bar in my city and they flipping _hated_ him. Said he acted like a prat all the time. He'd just get pissed and be a nuisance. So he does have form.
Exodus gods and kings was the ridley Scott movie with Christian Bale that other one with real gods came out in 2016 called gods of Eygpt... both were just movies aswell lol
Prisoners is extremely underrated imo. Otvis true that it has been well received and critics praised it, I do not believe the movie has been viewed by the amount of people it deserves to have been. I'd say if I had a list of the top 10 films that I enjoyed showing to people for their first time, Prisoners would absolutely be on that list.
They forgot to mention Far from Home in 2019 and No way Home in 2021 and for 2017's Homecoming they said it's the "second second Spider-man movie". I wonder what is up with that, James?
I started listening to this podcast in kindergarten and now I'm retired and raising my grandchildren. Thank you for the decades of memories
Okay boomer, just croak already
It's just the one decade, actually
@@wontorres Yes but he's from (insert local reference to place with high rate of teenage pregnancy).
Wow, half way to a billion episodes. Amazing.
They should get there in 200 000 AD (or thereabouts)
I wonder how many years it would take to just listen to half a billion episodes...
@@Emanon...nearly 10,000
@@J.O.R.DI don't know if it's true but I don't know enough about math to dispute it.
Maths can help everyone here for sure
So glad i got to hear the original opening theme. "Defenders of the earth" just doesnt have the same ring to it .
Yeah same
Agreed. Original opening was superior
Defenders of the earth was still in the mix but it stood no chance compared to the crushing weight of like 7 years worth of the og all stacked up against the measly 10 months worth of defenders of the earth episodes

And if you try for 25 Years and it hasn't happened its not going to happen buddy.
Fuck I wish I could leave an extra like for the distorted horror that is the weekly planets theme this week
That was the audio equivalent of red hot news shooting up my butthole
The casual ongoing tease/ fake out/ gag of Snake Eyes throughout this episode was the best way to commemorate 500 episodes. Congratulations, lads.🎉

I'm just glad they're finally going to do Snake Eyes next week
That compilation video was something else. It's great that you mentioned it. Not everyone would have. You really are a cut above the rest James. Thanks for being entertaining and motivational.
That’s probably what James hears at all times and found the perfect opportunity to share it with the audience
If I had a nickel for every The Weekly Planet Podcast episode there is, I would have 25 dollars

17:43 it's not a movie, it's an animated series and it's great, if you like gravity falls you'll definitely gonna love it

Well Anima sounds like anime, which James is thoroughly versed in.
It also sounds like enema, which becomes increasingly likely as an ageing male.
huge congrats on 500! been following this channel since i was in middle school and i’m 22 now, still my absolute favorite podcast and by far the best way to keep in touch with the entertainment industry, keep up the amazing work! love you guys
Congrats on 500 fellas.
Its not a monday until i hear the mates.
Haven’t watched this yet, but I’m super excited for ya’ll to finally review Snakeyes!
Tony Moore, the OG TWD artist, included a bunch of his internetbuddies as background zombies in the first few TWDs. As a result, I'm in a few panels of TWD #1. Nobody ever thought it would be so huge.
Snake eyes episode #69 was still the best out of all 500 IMO
Its gonna be a real let down when someone in 3036 listens to all 10000 of these at hyper injection speeds even after Mason took over with the cyber dog and realizes that they never ever got to the movie Snake Eyes
At the end James quickly says 'I want to thank you Nick Mason', and it sounded like Eunuch Mason...got 'em

What’s the point of the Rocketeer without the cool steampunk helmet?!
I thought this would be the announcement of James' son taking over the Mr Sunday title Phantom style
I started listening in middle school and now I’m 20 and work in education, thanks for 500 episodes!
500 episodes over ten years, im glad i found out about these guys this year so i can enjoy all thats before without running out of content for whats new
I can't believe you guys got a reboot of the Rocketeer for the 500th.
How was The Snyder Cut not the weirdest thing of 2021? Think about it
The theme for trailers ahoy is just perfect 😁🎧
HAPPY 500 and thanks for bringing back the themes, Trailers Ahoy should return permenento, listening for Mason's theme and that sweet Becker guitar
Regarding disney+ - I'm incredibly disappointed that I can't watch Werewolf By Night again, now that it's almost Halloween.
🎶 red hot comic book movie news... 🎶
The insanity of that song is what drew me in the first time I listened 😂
Awesome milestone fellas. You're one of if not my faves here on the inter-tubular coalition

Wow. It's crazy they actually covered Snake Eyes.
Congrats on 500 hundred episodes fellas. You've definitely made working overnight enjoyable. Here's to another 500.
That audio of all the episodes together sounds like what you hear when you go to the Event Horizon hell dimension.
500!
The Guest is a fantastic indie movie! Love the synthwave soundtrack bada$$
I was going to listen to all the good films after listening to this on Spotify, realised I had forgotten what any of them were, came on the RUclips comments section to see if anyone had written them. Now I have to contemplate whether I can be arsed to listen for them again to find out myself!

1:54:35 "You're thinking of koalas" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Happy 500 mates! studying abroad in Australia next sem and would love to meet any fans
Jason Mamoa might’ve been just wearing one of his fast and furious outfits 😂
It sounds like they confused Gods of Egypt with Exodus: Gods and Kings which was the Ridley Scott directed sequel that came out two years earlier than the original.
Oh hell yeah. I’m so ready for that Snake Eyes segment
Happy 800th show!
(I'm including the 300 I've heard in my dreams.)
Great lists guys!!! Reminded me of a lot of movies I loved but forgot and new (old) things to watch 😊😊😊
To tie two podcast points together; in 2014 there was a THIRD Hercules movie on top of the one with the Rock and "the other one." It was called Hercules Reborn and it stars ANOTHER WRESTLER, the chap best known as John Morrison in WWE.

I left a like!! Cuz I legitimately like y’all!!
Congrats on the huge milestone!
Could you just keep adding to the intro each week? I want to experience the horror of 1000 intros
Congrats on 500 - love this show
Happy 500th
Thank you for all the years of laughs and news, appreciate it!
Can't wait to hear how old yall are by the 1000th.😂
It’s the snake eyes thumbnail for me
Great intro
Can't believe I fell for the snake eyes ruse again 😊
Congrats fellas let's make it to 1000 🎉
Now all we need is the "Cancelled Batman Versus Superman movie" video on Vinyl.
Happy 500th boys! You blokes don't look a day over 300
Goddammit, that new Trailers Ahoy tune is amazing!
3 hrs of pure snake eyes joy. I heard they re releasing it in theatres after this review.
Boys! Exodus - Gods and Kings is the Ridley Scott biblical movie of Moses (like a live action Prince of Egypt)
They seem to have mistaken it for Gods of Egypt because of the bland subtitle... and the white Egyptians too, probably.
2:08:41 oh this is the place I go to get screamed at though… no one else yells at me anymore except for James 😂😂
Keith Giffen was also a co-developer of Ambush Bug. He was not afraid to try an avant garde art style.
The best movie to ever be made exclusively for Disney+ is "Werewolf by Night"
Such a journey, finally, we have Snake Eyes
Happy 500 James and Mason🎉
Best. Pod. Ever. Heres to 500 more! 😎🤘🏿
wooohooo 500! thanks for everything guys!
Wow, how time flies! congrats on 500th ep!
31:11 My mate worked at Mamoa's favourite bar in my city and they flipping _hated_ him. Said he acted like a prat all the time.
He'd just get pissed and be a nuisance.
So he does have form.
James, please watch Swiss Army Man. Just do it please, then give us your thoughts 😂
Woo congrats on the 500 from Texas

James can you please at least describe the Snake Eyes: Gijoe Origins or whatever its called in one word?
Happy 500 fellas!!!! Fuck yeah
Been listening since like 8th grade. I’m a senior in college now
Exodus gods and kings is directed by Ripley Scott. You're thinking of gods of Egypt from 2016
I luv you guys (Jimmy and Nicky) 500 times!
Now we need a recreation of James under the blanket with a torch. Whether it be a real picture or photoshop.
They forgot to mention Far from Home in 2019 and No way Home in 2021 and for 2017's Homecoming they said it's the "second second Spider-man movie". I wonder what is up with that, James?
How did you guys forget Moonlight for the 2016 Best Movies list???
1:18:30 It's gotta be the aviation errors, they make a lot of things unrecognizable.
These two not being horror fans really let IT 2017 go unlisted. Rip.
Here's to another 500 episodes
Happy 500 🥳🍾
