@ChrisHewitt From my trip to Ireland in March, ‘mind the gap’ plays in my head at least once. One of my most prominent memories of the trip. 😂

I like it when you’re on the Central Line, and the automated voice says ‘mind the gap’, only it’s not a gap, it’s the sort of fucking enormous chasm you need a run-up and Indiana Jones’ whip to clear.

@ChrisHewitt Obviously they’ve never heard of the endurance test that is 2001: A Space Odyssey. And just saw the runtime for Lawrence of Arabia (have not seen it yet.)
English
Ah, so we’re now blaming Marvel for *checks notes* lengthy runtimes, eh? OK.
The Atlantic@TheAtlantic
Before Marvel and the plight of bloated run times, “there were films like David Cronenberg’s ‘A Dangerous Method,'” @evanmcmurry writes in the Sunday Daily. “Clocking in at 99 minutes … the film is a clinic in brisk storytelling.” theatlantic.com/newsletters/ar…

@ChrisHewitt It’s not because of ID4, but I’ve always had a lot of love “It’s the End of the World”

@ChrisHewitt A drugged up Hewitt episode. This is how you get that “best pod” award. 😂 (hope you’re on the mend!)
English
This week's podcast is finally done, folks. Would have been up sooner, but I'm on heavy-duty painkillers right now and conked out in the middle of the edit. Fun! (I'm ok, all is explained on the pod) It will be up soon. Sorry for the delay!
English
@ChrisHewitt Screenwriter and director you’d like to see team up. Bonus: the kind of film you’d want them to make.
English
Anyway, the podding never stops. Any questions for this week’s episode, folks? We’re recording it once we get back to London. We will be incoherent. Even more so than usual.

Anyone else not getting the pod on Apple? It’s not showing up on mine, and a few others are reporting that too.
Chris Hewitt@ChrisHewitt
Here is a podcast. Ain’t that enough?
English
@ChrisHewitt This will probably be in the news section, if the rumors are true, but thoughts on another Avengers movie with the original cast? Or another direction Marvel could take to get out of the “slump.”
English
Any questions for this week’s Empire Podcast, folks? We’re recording soon, all being well.
English
@ChrisHewitt Favorite kill sequence from a horror movie?

@HelenLOHara Any franchises you’d like to see Greta Gerwig or another female writer/director tackle with complete creative control. (We know they won’t stop making them). OR which well-known/beloved movie would you like to see from the POV of a different character in the movie? #EmpirePodcast
English
But soft! What questions through yonder Twitter break? It is the only moderately panicked shout-out, and the #EmpirePodcast is the reason.
English
@ChrisHewitt I’m sure the question “how much does the original movie mean to you?” Was definitely part of the casting director’s criteria. 😂… I’m excited to see her take on it. (Also, this doesn’t put the original one out existence….crazy thought, I know. Some people.)

I see we’ve invented yet another way to get mad at a movie. Sterling work, everyone.
English
@ChrisHewitt Still have to actually start watching it. Separate topic, are there plans for a Dead Reckoning Part 1 spoiler episode with Team Empire? I’ve not even finished the first part of your chat with MCQ so just wondering.
English
This will be up imminently. I had to re-edit from scratch due to a tech issue, which didn't help. And I should warn people that the podcast is an accurate reflection of the mindset of three people who have just watched the final episode of Secret Invasion.
Jamie Kelwick@JamieKelwick
@ChrisHewitt When is the finale of the Secret Invasion Spoiler Specials coming Chris? Can’t wait to hear what you guys thought
English
@HelenLOHara #EmpirePodcast movies that work as double bills, where the second serves as a nice palette cleanser from the first one.
English
To celebrate the embargoes falling for Barbie and Oppenheimer, why not send me questions for this week's #EmpirePodcast? Look at that, it's not even being recorded yet! Sublime.
English
@ChrisHewitt Have you finished reading @HelenLOHara ‘s books yet?

In The Last Action Heroes, @NickdeSemlyen chronicles the rise of the invincible action hero who used muscle, martial arts or the perfect weapon to save the day. And how, as the 1990s rolled on, the glory days of these macho men began to fade. buff.ly/44OCIlJ

@ChrisHewitt Favorite speeches or monologues (I love Bill Pullman’s ID4 speech….)

@Babsdeedee @kare11 Please, we all know it will be more like .0000000000001.

@ChrisHewitt Get well soon man!! Q: If this season ends up being a very long buildup to a much more intense next season, do you see anything they could done so far tighten this season up and make next season’s story part of this season?
English
Due to a combination of illness (mine) and unavailability (erm, also mine), we won't be recording this week's Mandalorian Spoiler Special until tomorrow morning. So plenty of time for you to DM me some lovely questions. But there is a fun Star Wars-related pod going up VERY SOON.
English
@ChrisHewitt @TheScottAdkins Now-favorite movies you may not have seen had your job not caused you to watch out of your normal favorite genres.
English
Folks! We are looking for a listener question for the pod, and we need it now! Also, @TheScottAdkins is joining us! Go! Go! Go!
