Podcast appearances and mentions of Taika Waititi

In which the Mister joins me in reviewing NEXT GOAL WINS (2023), a biographical sports comedy from director, Taika Waititi, with writing credits to Taika Waititi and Iain Morris.  A hot-headed, down-on-his-luck football coach named Thomas Rongen (Michael Fassbender) is sent to American Samoa to lead their national team, widely considered one of the worst squads in the world. Facing the daunting task of turning the inexperienced, disorganized group into a competitive team capable of winning a single game, Rongen is forced to shift his focus from professional ego to understanding the unique cultural spirit of his players. Through this journey, he discovers that the team's true victory lies not in the scoreboard, but in the profound personal transformation and newfound joy they find through playing the sport together.  The film clocks in at 1 h 44 m, is rated PG-13 and currently streaming on Tubi and to buy/rent on Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#NextGoalWins #TaikaWaititi #IainMorris #MichaelFassbender #ThomasRongen #OscarKightley #Tavita #Kaimana #Jaiyah #DavidFane #Ace #RachelHouse #Ruth #BeulahKoale #Daru #UliLatukefu #NickySalapu #SemuFilipo #Rambo #ChrisAlosio #Jonah #LehiMakisiFalepapalangi #Pisa #IoaneGoodhue #Smiley #HioPelesasa #Samson #Football #Soccer #Comedy #Sport  @Tubi  @PrimeVideo  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

A talking raccoon and a sentient tree?! When Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' hit theatres in 2014, it faced doubts from all angles, from Kree and Xandarians alike. However, James Gunn's injection of humour, colour and the right amount of irreverence quickly made the film an instant fan-favourite. 12 years later, it's made it to Number 7 on our MCU 12 list. Some are saying that's really the most important part of its legacy.

Clint, Meg, and Dan react to New Zealand’s first football World Cup loss since 1982 (blowing a 1–0 lead to lose 3–1) and look ahead to the next match. Dan shares a new half-marathon sponsorship with a chafing-cream brand and the awkward mid-race reapplication. They discuss UK politics and a game comparing world leaders’ time in power, then run movie trailer updates for Ricky Gervais’ Alley Cats and Taika Waititi’s Clara.

The guests also offer insights into this year's lineup, from the emotional power of Arrival to the enduring appeal of Best in Show and Jurassic Park.

"HE'S A FRIEND FROM WORK!" Though the MCU as a whole seemed to thrive, one of its weaker links reception-wise was the Thor franchise. Though the first film captivated audiences enough, The Dark World didn't have nearly enough excitement behind it, and thus the original plan for the third film was taken in an entirely new direction for the third one. What resulted was a loud, bright, colorful entry that critics liked and audiences adored, but how well does it hold up? Come join Brian, Alec, Darby, and Trey to find out as they continue Phase 3 of the MCUathon with a film that gets more divisive as the years go by -- Taika Waititi's THOR: RAGNAROK!

Cate Blanchett Month takes a cosmic, neon-drenched turn this week on We Drink & We Watch Things as we dive into the Marvel Cinematic Universe to witness Cate Blanchett at her most delightfully wicked: Taika Waititi's 2017 technicolor blast, Thor: Ragnarok. It's time to pour yourself a drink that's as bold and dangerous as our guest of honor - Lemar's Hella Fire, perhaps - as we head to Asgard to meet the sister Thor and Loki never knew they had.This week, we celebrate Cate's turn as Hela, the Goddess of Death, and how she managed to create one of the most charismatic and genuinely threatening villains in the entire MCU. We examine her incredible physical presence - from the effortless way she catches Mjolnir to the iconic antlered headgear - and talk through how much fun she clearly had playing a character who is unapologetically powerful and bored by everyone else's rules. We also highlight the film's shift toward improvisational comedy, the vibrant "Jack Kirby" visual style, and why Hela stands out as a masterclass in how to bring gravitas and theatrical flair to a superhero blockbuster. And why we want more of her!If you love a villain who steals every scene they're in, or if you just want to hear us gush about Cate's ability to command an entire army with just a flick of her wrist, this is the episode for you. We're blending our adoration for her range with our usual casual banter, making this a high-voltage highlight of our actress Month journey.

This Aang movie leak is straight-up chaos -- the full Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender animated feature from Avatar Studios got "accidentally" emailed to some random X user who then dumped clips online showing adult Aang and the Gaang with brand-new voice actors, fresh animation that actually looks killer, and plot teases including Dave Bautista and Taika Waititi cameos, all months before the October Paramount+ premiere. Yeah Nickelodeon or Paramount's security is apparently Swiss cheese because now the near-finished draft is everywhere online while fans are mainlining spoilers and the studio's scrambling to play whack-a-mole -- nothing like finally getting the Avatar sequel only for it to get pirated before the trailer even drops.

Então, eu fiz essa LIVE. Por que a gente faz isso? Eu não sei. Sentei na minha casa, olhei pra uma lente e fiquei falando sobre o novo disco do Gorillaz e da vez em que eu fumei DMT e achei que meu corpo tinha morrido. O que, honestamente, foi um alívio temporário. A gente também falou sobre como Hollywood de alguma forma estragou o Taika Waititi e como o Jim Carrey talvez seja um clone. Sabe? O básico do dia a dia. Aí, lá pro final, eu comecei a jogar Tarô ao vivo porque eu tô apavorado com a ideia de voltar pra esse mundo na próxima vida como um fantasma barrigudo com uma boquinha minúscula. É sério, isso existe na roda de Samsara e soa absolutamente exaustivo. Assiste aí. Ou não assiste. De um jeito ou de outro, a gente vai morrer e o sol vai engolir a Terra um dia.

Marvel rumors are swirling again

Dave is sollo as he talks Stan Lee, DC movies, Taika Waititi, and much more! Rate, review, and tell your friends! Threads, X, insta: @asylumofnasty tiktok: @nastyasylumpod nastyasylum.threadless.com

When Kathleen Kennedy left her position as president of Lucasfilm last week, she left behind a ton of Star Wars projects in various states of production. From James Mangold's "Dawn of the Jedi" and Dave Filoni's Mandoverse epic, to potential films from Simon Kinberg, Taika Waititi, Steven Soderberg, Donald Glover and more, we look closely at that long list and try to determine which films may still actually happen under the supervision of Lucasfilm's new regime. Plus, listener feedback, Star Wars in Pop Culture and more.

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, we're diving headfirst into the digital dumpster fire, starting with follow-up that will make you wonder if the rich are finally getting their comeuppance. It seems Tesla's market share is plummeting, and Elon Musk has been unceremoniously knocked off as the world's wealthiest person. Meanwhile, OpenAI and Microsoft are flirting with new partnership terms, and OpenAI is also reportedly cozying up with Oracle for a cloud computing deal. Are they figuring it all out or just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic? You decide.In the news, it's a feast of AI-induced chaos. Anthropic attempted to settle a copyright lawsuit for $1.5 billion, but a judge rejected it. Apple faces scrutiny for allegedly using pirated books to train AI (because who needs original ideas when you can just steal them?), and everyone from Reddit to Yahoo is rushing to get paid for their data being scraped by AI. Google even admits that the open web is struggling, while pushing ads into AI-generated answers and trying to convince us that DOGE never existed. Meanwhile, millions of YouTube videos have been copied by AI companies—because why create when you can just steal? Not to mention, The Boring Company reportedly stopped tunneling after a "crushing injury" (ironic, huh?), Zuckerberg and Palmer Luckey are teaming up again like a disastrous boy band for military-grade goggles, and Meta whistleblowers are exposing child safety issues. Plus, a hot mic caught Zuck groveling to Trump—the cringe is real. And if that wasn't enough, it turns out AI usage is actually declining at big companies, and programmers using AI are creating more security risks than a screen door on a submarine. It's almost like we saw this coming.For your Media Candy fix, get ready for a dose of existential dread. The MTV Video Music Awards are still happening in 2025, with a median viewer age of 56—because nothing screams "youth culture" like osteoporosis. We'll wonder if Wednesday (aka Charlie Sheen) is still winning and discuss Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Amazon Music is launching AI-powered playlists (because who needs a human DJ when you can have an algorithm that thinks it knows your soul?), and Deezer claims 28% of all new music is AI-generated. Taika Waititi is developing a "potentially disastrous" Fyre Fest musical (we're excited!), Foundation is renewed for season 4, and the HBO Max CEO thinks it's "way underpriced"—bless his heart. Plus, more Highlander reboot news that will probably disappoint, and a look at The Missi & Brooke Show and The Traitors Ireland.Finally, in Apps & Doodads, bad news for AirPods Live Translation in the EU, Evernote and WeTransfer's owner is buying Vimeo, and you need this pettable Poké Ball Tamagotchi-style toy. In The Dark Side with Dave, we'll discuss The Princess Bride, how tariffs are ruining hobbies, and who wants "slop for their ears." This episode shows that some things never change, and most things are just getting worse.
