All right, Daniel since you're a guest, why don't you go first?
0:17
Well, I may not Shock you but my one costume to rule them all as
0:23
the Donald Duck outfit. You killed Elizabeth
0:43
hello and welcome to the art of casting blogcast.
0:45
I'm Overjoyed glass and I'm captain Spencer Williams.
0:48
Hello this is a bit. Hello Spencer how are you?
0:53
I'm Dandy a room like right here.
0:56
Yeah I'm great. We just started as podcast.
1:00
If the cats on the recording studio like immediately, so we
1:03
just get that out of the way. Yeah, she just stood right next
1:06
to me and meow, and just, just cat meowing.
1:11
Well, I have a follow-up for you.
1:12
Oh, follow-up. Yeah, remember that one episode?
1:16
I think it was Batman where we talked about the ggressive,
1:19
liebig popcorn sizes and sodas. Oh yeah.
1:23
Well, the other day, I went to go see morbius, which wolf this
1:30
movie is something, but I went up to the man and I was going to
1:34
ask him for a kid's popcorn size and he just looked me in the
1:38
eyes and I got so scared. I just love regular popcorn and
1:43
I ate the whole thing, and I was felt really sick after I just
1:46
couldn't do it. Ah, Spencer, but I'm getting
1:50
there. It's coming.
1:51
I feel it. Because I did see someone, with
1:54
a kids popcorn bag, that being said, that person was a child.
1:58
So, It made, it made sense to me.
2:03
Shocking that a child would have a kids popcorn.
2:06
Spencer, I did say the okay, but this is what I did.
2:10
I got scared by said, can I get a small popcorn and knowing,
2:14
well that there's no small popcorns and it's a small.
2:18
It's just not like, tiny, not a mine, it's regular or large.
2:22
So I asked for small, and he gave me a regular, and I just
2:26
said, okay, thank you, establishment.
2:29
Is this, what are they doing in California, AMC?
2:34
Yeah, it's some small movie business and see no, no, small
2:40
popcorn. What do you do in a MC?
2:42
So if I go to Regal season easy, that's why.
2:47
Yeah, I am. Oh, I'm so excited again to this
2:53
week's episode, but I think we need a little bit of help for
2:57
this crazy big episode. I think we do.
3:00
To Spencer Lord, Daniel white. We need your help.
3:07
I'm Your Last Hope. Dan White?
3:13
Is it a studio today? Everybody?
3:15
Hello. Oh gosh, Daniel.
3:21
This was your recommendation back.
3:24
When we were planning season 1. He snuck Galaxy Quest onto our
3:29
calendar. Yeah.
3:30
Used to watch this movie all the time.
3:32
Probably when I was like 15 or 16 or something and I would
3:36
watch it at least like once a month.
3:38
Yeah. That's very nice.
3:40
Nice. I had this movie on VHS and I
3:43
used to just watch it and Rewind it all the all the time means so
3:47
good. Yeah, yeah, this is one of my
3:49
mom's favorite movies so we had the DVD and she would just watch
3:53
it all the time, we eventually upgraded the DVD who he liked it
3:57
that much. Yeah, I need to do so I haven't
4:00
actually this is the first time I've seen it since the VHS so
4:03
it's been a very long time. I just knew how I just knew how
4:07
much I loved it. I haven't seen him forever so it
4:09
was so fun game back to it. Yeah.
4:12
And the cast is stupid Stellar. It's really great.
4:16
Yeah. Yeah.
4:16
There were so many people, I didn't recognize until watching
4:20
it you know after all these years like Rainn Wilson is in
4:23
this. Yeah.
4:24
Right. This is Rainn Wilson and Justin
4:27
Long's first film. Yeah.
4:29
What What? Yeah, which is crazy why weld
4:32
according to Wikipedia, if you're listening and you're
4:34
like, that's not true blame Wikipedia, the source of all.
4:39
100% information, solar knowledge knowledge.
4:48
Well, I think we should get into it.
4:49
We have quite a story to jump through so let's do it.
4:55
Yes. So this week we're going to do
4:57
things a little differently once again.
5:00
Elizabeth will be doing the summary and I will be taking you
5:03
behind a Wardrobe, not because I'm a Galaxy Quest expert.
5:07
I just happen to get everything ready today, so that's the way.
5:14
Yeah, we had a little bit of craziness this weekend.
5:17
Spencer, very kindly did the slides space month is a big
5:22
month to be have a lot of costumes in films to watch.
5:25
So we're we're teaming up. Were booked in busy?
5:28
Yeah, it was not Expecting this. So yes, our summary for Galaxy
5:35
Quest, the stars of a old Sci-Fi show now scraping a living
5:40
through reruns and sci-fi conventions, are beamed aboard,
5:43
an alien spacecraft leaving the cast heroic.
5:46
On-screen dramas are historical documents of real-life
5:49
Adventures. The, the ban of aliens turns to
5:55
to the ailing celebrities, to help their quest to overcome.
5:59
Oppressive oppressed. What did you write oppressive
6:07
regime of their solar system? You just threw in like the most
6:12
difficult words, you can slap together.
6:16
That's IMDb, I don't know. You did a great job.
6:21
Elizabeth. That's a good summary.
6:24
Thank you, thank you. And if you haven't watched
6:28
Galaxy Quest, Since the year 1999, if you've seen any Star
6:33
Trek episode, you're fine, which admittedly I should probably say
6:41
this. Now I have not seen an episode
6:44
of Star Trek. I have not ever ever Daniel to
6:49
me ever. No, no, my only experience with
6:55
no a win. You don't bite me about the cat
7:02
fighting Elizabeth. Oh no, I won't pay you fine.
7:14
Wow, but we know Star Trek like I know the characters and their
7:26
costumes, you know, Anyways my own experiences we had a Star
7:31
Trek video game for the nests back in the old days and mass.
7:39
Yeah! Okay well let me take you behind
7:44
the Wardrobe on Galaxy Quest. Something I have seen many many
7:48
many times. This film was directed by
7:51
director. Dean parisot and costumes were
7:54
created by costume designer Albert wool ski.
7:57
Who's a little bit of a legend himself.
7:59
Yes, Albert's notable work include some really incredible
8:03
films that he won a ton of Oscars for All That Jazz from
8:07
1979, which he won an Oscar for Bugsy 1991.
8:11
Another Oscar win, Greece Across the Universe, The Manchurian
8:16
Candidate from 2004 Revolutionary, Road, 2008,
8:21
Birdman or the unexpected virtue of ignorance for which he won a
8:25
costume designers, Guild award. In 2014 and he was honored by
8:30
the costume designers Guild with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
8:33
So I'm really is kind of a big deal.
8:37
Yeah, yeah, he is. Greece, like, come on, right.
8:42
And I am a personal big fan of all that jazz, that's a great
8:47
film. With that being said, Galaxy
8:50
Quest is not heavily reported on on the interwebs.
8:54
So in terms of behind the Wardrobe, Facts, we do not have
8:59
many however, they have been sprinkled throughout the episode
9:02
as we get into the specifics of characters.
9:05
Mmm. And there should also be like a
9:07
little asterisk that says, also kind of sort of costume design
9:12
by Stan, Winston, right? I did, like Star Wars aliens and
9:18
a bunch of other films. Yeah.
9:20
Stan Winston was a heavy heavy partner on this film, and we
9:24
actually have some reporting from Stan Winston film school
9:29
that I'll be able to share a few as we get into some of our fun
9:32
characters, like my favorite Pig lizard, which is very cute.
9:37
Very, very cute. Let's take a break, shall we?
9:41
Indeed, Hi.
9:58

10:41
Alright, everybody. Are you ready to talk about
10:43
Galaxy Quest? Hell yeah.
10:47
He starts off with a re-run of the final episode of Galaxy
10:52
Quest at the I forget, which annual Galaxy Quest convention.
10:58
19 years later convention. Yeah, they've done a lot.
11:04
This is what we get to see the cast for the first time and they
11:07
all look Stellar. I mean, talking about the star
11:09
power, we just hit our Alien episodes, Sigourney Weaver is
11:13
back. So soon playing Gwen DeMarco AKA
11:17
Lieutenant Tawny Madison and she looks fine.
11:22
Mmm, she does. Wig that rig does not look fine,
11:27
but she looks good. Well, you don't like the wig not
11:31
in this scene. Not in this scene that much.
11:35
I love like the old show is so cheesy looking, mmm, right?
11:40
Has like, such a 80s 70s influence to it.
11:43
It's kind of hard to pinpoint the time, period.
11:45
It's definitely like early 80s late 70s.
11:49
Let's just bring the rest of our crew.
11:51
And we have the legendary Alan Rickman as As Alexander Dane who
11:56
played dr. Lazarus, we have younger Laredo
12:02
is played by Corp and blue which is crazy to me, that is so
12:07
funny. Daniel Frye doesn't have Corbin
12:09
Bleu. Yeah, he's from High School
12:11
Musical. Okay.
12:13
Okay. Hematite and squeeze.
12:18
He's actually really funny and then we have Tony Shalhoub as
12:22
Fred Kwan, who played Tech Sergeant Chen.
12:24
As sips chief engineer. Let's talk about their costumes
12:29
for a moment. I personally like how you can I
12:33
think with the exception of Sigourney Weaver's character but
12:35
like everyone else is costumes. Look so scrapped together a
12:41
little bit. Yes, yeah.
12:44
No, it definitely. Looks like they used like a
12:46
little bit here, a little bit there.
12:48
Yeah. Like all those old sci-fi shows.
12:50
Had a really low budgets. So yeah, it definitely fits
12:54
that. That that aesthetic.
12:56
It's funny because it's probably made to be like you know I'm
12:59
guessing protective and kind of like a utility where I'm
13:03
guessing. It's like lots of pockets but
13:05
literally it just looks like it's a jumpsuit with like a
13:08
patch on it. Yeah, no pockets.
13:11
Nothing very form-fitting but I like love to use of color
13:15
though. The colors are always like
13:17
really beautiful to me. Yeah, that's very, that's very
13:20
star treky has Sigourney Weaver sexy, just stereotypical sexy,
13:31
sci-fi woman. I was like, that's funny right.
13:34
They gave her two big broad shoulder pads.
13:37
It's like zipped it down kind of revealing of the chest.
13:42
Yeah. Very, very sci-fi e and I love.
13:47
I don't know why this always went over my head when I was
13:50
younger with that, her only job is to repeat the computer.
13:53
I was like, oh, that's not a Real job that's just so she can
13:56
look pretty and stand there. Yeah, they gave her a crap job.
14:01
She's like the, you know, Baywatch Pam Anderson of sci-fi
14:05
at this moment. Which sucks and it's so funny
14:07
because we just did the alien episode where we were talking
14:10
about, you know, like Sigourney Weaver's role in sci-fi, didn't
14:14
this film? It's the complete opposite,
14:16
which is why I think is perfect casting definitely.
14:20
But it's also funny because she's kind of a badass even in
14:23
this film. Oh yeah.
14:24
He just gave her. The shit job.
14:25
Yeah, yeah. I mean, you know that it's
14:27
because she's like, I'm gonna do it anyway.
14:31
Sigourney Weaver Remains the ultimate badass, no matter what
14:34
role we put her in. Who did you know?
14:38
That Sergeant Chen is quote unquote, Asian really?
14:44
Yeah. Wait.
14:45
He's supposed to be playing an Asian character.
14:48
So, Fred Quan, the character plays, an Asian character.
14:54
In the TV show of Galaxy Quest. I don't like where this is going
15:01
and every time you see his like his his like shot, he does this
15:06
like ice cream T thing that that explains so much terrible.
15:11
I just really I was wondering why he was squinting.
15:14
I thought was like that Botox. Nope but they did that all the
15:19
time. I probably up to the 80s that
15:22
was super common. Yeah.
15:24
Haribol, but also, yeah, it's this is like the ultimate sci-fi
15:30
parody. Yeah, that's so sad.
15:33
I hate that. I know.
15:36
And they don't mention it anywhere in the film.
15:38
Like you, you kind of have to like listen to the documentary
15:42
and stuff. I never noticed that it's like
15:45
that's for movie and TV, TV Buffs like Mary.
15:52
I never do that often. Script.
15:55
But what was George takei's role in Star Trek?
16:00
Let's see the engineer. Oh, I think he was, we're all
16:05
just looking it up. Wait, I feel like we just
16:07
uncovered something terrible. You didn't know that the rest of
16:11
the the rest of the world is not know about, he's the lieutenant
16:17
commander, okay? So no.
16:22
Anyways well thank you for that little information.
16:27
Daniel, I will never believe you see his character, the same.
16:30
Now I know, speaking of cancelable, people have I told
16:40
you how much, I cannot stand Tim Allen.
16:44
I'm sorry, I don't know anything about Tim Allen after the year
16:49
whatever. Her, this movie came out, know
16:51
nothing about this man. Did the Santa Claus Christmas
16:55
with the Kranks, which is actually personal favorite of
16:58
mine. However, he's carried by Jamie
17:00
Lee Curtis and that film. So, I think the only reason why
17:03
I've, you know, been okay, if him in this film was because
17:06
he's carried by Sigourney Weaver and I just, I don't know what it
17:10
is. I just can't get into Tim Allen.
17:14
It's like not what the Tim Allen slander.
17:17
I thought he was gonna, he would have done.
17:19
Being offensive to make you hate him so much.
17:22
Well he has well his comedy is not exactly PG, the comedian.
17:28
We have you like no I didn't know.
17:31
Yeah yeah he does stand-up comedy and his political beliefs
17:35
are also very harsh. Well, that's unfortunate.
17:39
Yeah but I will put that all behind me.
17:42
Now that I've said that to talk about Jason who plays Commander
17:47
Peter, Quincy Taggert Intro. Yeah.
17:54
Have a come out eventually. So his costume actually does
18:00
look the most put together compared to everyone else's.
18:03
He's the commander so they clearly put a little bit more
18:06
attention to detail. However, I can't get over like
18:09
the 80s bullet. It's actually really, it's so
18:15
bad, it's so bad but it fits him to the like About it.
18:20
You like this is definitely the hair.
18:21
He wore in the 80s. Oh yeah.
18:23
Probably especially after you see him when he rolls into the
18:27
convention. Oh yeah.
18:29
He had a mullet in the 80s but the lines on his uniform or just
18:35
like really extraordinary and he is a little bit of like a
18:39
shoulder pad action to which I daresay the other men on the
18:42
crew did not. Yeah he the other the other men
18:46
they look much more jumpsuit e and this looks like a Fitted
18:50
jacket. Yeah.
18:51
And their badges, don't look as clean and and like, I don't
18:55
know. Well stitched, whereas his is
18:57
like super pristine and shiny. Yeah, yeah, it was definitely
19:01
wax before they took this photo. Yeah, we don't have a lot of
19:07
quotes from the costume designer.
19:09
However, I do have some sketches.
19:11
I'm showing Elizabeth and Daniel will include them in the show
19:14
notes, but just like, very beautiful renderings of the
19:18
suits before but even looking at the suit so I could see it
19:21
though. There is and there in the
19:23
sketches, you can see that there was a difference between a
19:25
cruise and Tim Allen's character.
19:29
Yeah, yeah. No.
19:30
His was definitely meant to be more fitted and structured
19:34
compared to theirs. Right?
19:35
Yeah. And I think his is the only one
19:37
at that is not a jumpsuit because it's like a two-piece
19:40
right? Yeah that's what it is.
19:42
His is more fitted. It has like a belt and a center
19:45
and everyone else's are just jumpsuits.
19:48
Yeah. Get all utility jumpsuits.
19:53
So now we jump to the convention.
19:54
I love this scene as so many great costumes.
19:57
But first, we have to introduce two new cast members.
20:02
I should say, Darrell Mitchell who plays Tommy Webber.
20:05
Now, he's no longer Corbin Bleu, unfortunately, but we'll miss,
20:09
you Corbin. And then we have a Sam Rockwell
20:13
playing guy. Flinkman the cast Handler at the
20:17
conventions and also he had like, Like a part on one
20:20
episode, where he died in the same episode or something he
20:24
died before. The first commercial break.
20:29
Daniel, this is your favorite character, right?
20:32
Yeah, I love Sam, Rockwell. Honestly like his part in this
20:37
movie was like the best compared to everyone else personal
20:41
opinion. But no correct opinion.
20:44
He is so funny in this. I love him and I love his like
20:48
he has the costume. Like the The Medallion oh yeah
20:53
of the Galaxy Quest and woman. I'm like this is just a fanboy
20:59
who happens to have been in the show.
21:01
Yeah I'm like this guy he's like crazy.
21:08
We really haven't talked about Alan rickman's character but I
21:11
just remember being so obsessive like that headpiece, I put on
21:14
him like the makeup on that is super crazy.
21:18
You also Done by Stan Winston. Yeah, a legend.
21:22
I mean it's so cool. I just love looking at it but
21:25
also looks like super uncomfortable and hot, I'm sure.
21:28
Yeah, I'm sure Alan Rickman did not enjoy it.
21:31
That's like putting a rubber cap on your head for God knows how
21:35
long. Let's go to the convention
21:38
floor. Elizabeth you've been to a
21:41
convention once or twice in your life.
21:43
I-i've been to multiple conventions, this took me back.
21:48
It was it was so Funny, like watching like all the people in
21:52
their elaborate costumes and all the people and like, once they
21:55
threw together, like they had such a great mixture of like
21:58
people who put time and effort in and then like, oh, I just
22:02
left this together because it kind of looks like a thing,
22:05
right? I love the girls dressed up as
22:08
Sigourney Weaver's character who are as you mentioned were all
22:12
wearing like, really terrible wigs.
22:16
So leads me to believe that that wig.
22:18
No, you brought up was probably intended.
22:19
Tensional because they're all wearing to Party City
22:21
shake-and-go wig. Are you City?
22:28
There's probably a like space woman wig.
22:32
Oh yeah. In this universe like her hair,
22:36
it's probably says like sexy space emmalin.
22:40
Yeah and it's just like a Red Jumpsuit with a blond wig.
22:42
Yeah man we space officer. That's probably what it says.
22:46
There you go. Well, I just, I love looking in
22:51
a crowded seeing everyone there. It's really interesting
22:54
characters. One of my favorite scenes is
22:56
when he goes into the bathroom and everyone at the urinals is
23:00
wearing like the same red alien costume.
23:03
It is like so crazy but I love it so much.
23:07
Elizabeth is that a rip off on the Klingon?
23:10
I believe, so. Yeah, she's yeah.
23:13
Okay, that's what I thought. I'm pretty sure that's what it
23:15
is because I couldn't tell if it was like an exact Like a literal
23:20
Klingon or if it was like a play on them.
23:23
It's so hard to tell from the back.
23:25
It's yeah, it's not exact but it's definitely a wink and a nod
23:30
to them a little on the nose nerds.
23:34
I love how much this movie is like so Star Trek.
23:39
Yeah, I I love it because especially like, at this point
23:45
because so this came out in 99 so it's probably made me like 98
23:49
car. Splay conventions and like anime
23:54
and manga like Centric conventions, hadn't really taken
23:58
off yet, so it really was just Star Trek and like sci-fi
24:03
conventions. That's, I mean, Star Trek is
24:07
kind of what kicked off cosplay, especially in America.
24:11
Hmm. So it that this is really all,
24:12
they're kind of was at the time which is why there's not a big
24:15
variety of like different kinds of costumes.
24:19
It's like just, you know, Galaxy Quest, which it would have been
24:23
back then if you were at this kind of convention, it was just
24:26
like, oh, Star Trek. Everybody's dressed up as Star
24:29
Trek and all the different keys. But from what I've read is seems
24:34
like it's this film has been very well received by Star Trek
24:37
fans though like that. Yeah, even in the documentary
24:41
that they have never surrender. I think the the author, the
24:46
author and writer of Star Trek was Yeah, I know this is on the
24:51
nose but like this is great. I loved it.
24:54
Yeah, it's def. Definitely would supposed to be
25:00
one of my favorite things is when the convention, guess I
25:05
should say walks up to our rickman's character and he does
25:07
one of my favorite lines, by grabthar's Hammer by the sons of
25:12
Warren. I shall avenge you.
25:14
That's, that's that's good quality.
25:18
I have this little I'll quote here from the Sam Winston
25:22
school.com. When I talk about Korean the
25:25
head, where for Alan rickman's character, actually?
25:27
Um it says to create the iconic head where the crew first took a
25:31
Head and Shoulder Life cast from Alan Rickman, then sculpted,
25:35
molded and fabricated Prosthetics which were then
25:38
custom painted. So just a little inside.
25:42
Look at the stunning makeup on his characters, you know, it's
25:46
still kind of a part of the costume, the makeup plus a
25:49
Really brought these characters to life.
25:51
So this film really is a collaboration between these big
25:54
departments. Hmm, yeah, definitely.
25:56
The makeup was such a huge part of What Not only made Alan
26:00
rickman's character but a lot of the characters in this.
26:04
Yeah. Also, did you notice when the
26:07
whole TV show cast like Alan Rickman Sigourney Weaver.
26:10
Everyone came out their costumes now are different.
26:15
Yeah, I was going to mention that they're much more tailored
26:19
their Much more fitted like there's zippers or like nice.
26:24
Yeah. Yeah.
26:25
Everything's much nicer because now like I'm sure they're not
26:30
making much but it's like this is their source of income
26:33
basically. So yeah you can see the
26:37
difference between guy like in the convention and then everyone
26:41
else has costumes. Like his is the only old one
26:43
because I guess he got to like keep his old costume from the
26:46
ship. Yeah, one of them even like
26:52
mentions that at some point that like we're in uniforms, he's
26:55
just in a costume. It is funny though because it's
26:58
like they never took off after uniform wants to show ended,
27:01
they just it became like it wasn't uniform. 4-0 is just a
27:05
uniform for life. Like, they are ya, our Galaxy
27:08
Quest because they were Typecast and probably couldn't get
27:11
anything else. Like poor Alan Rickman, I did
27:16
theater. That's really so miserable.
27:21
Alan Rickman was so perfectly casted for this role, like, it's
27:26
crazy. Absolutely.
27:28
Speaking of people, perfectly casted for their roles, we have
27:32
the thermians, so, up at the convention and this is such a
27:36
great part, we have Missi Pyle who.
27:40
Yeah, so good, Enrico colantoni, who plays mathesar the leader
27:48
and there's Jed Reese Who plays tab?
27:50
He's the second command and now we have the premiere of an icon.
27:56
Rainn Wilson who plays? Yeah, another Thurman who barely
28:00
has any screen time, but this was his first role and it's so
28:04
funny. I love him because I mean Rainn
28:07
Wilson does kind of seem like a Sci-Fi nerd and the whole time
28:10
he has the look of a Sci-Fi nerd on his face just like in awe of
28:14
everything around him. Oh for sure.
28:17
They show the size office on the Mission like for sure.
28:21
Absolutely, absolutely. I'm so sad.
28:24
He didn't have a bigger part though.
28:26
He was supposed to I think, but I think he ended up doing a TV
28:31
show and they had to, like, cut his Parts down or something.
28:34
Yeah, I have read that too. But like, you know, it's a small
28:38
little addition but it does a lot.
28:41
Yeah. The Thurman costumes are very
28:43
interesting too because they're kind of similar to our regular
28:47
cast as costumes. It has like a little bit more of
28:50
a metallic leather look to it which you could tell.
28:53
Like yeah, these are real costumes.
28:56
Yeah. This is their clothing.
28:58
Like, they split time and structure and thought into it.
29:03
Yeah, I love them because like you are right, like the leathery
29:07
shiny, look, it does make them look more like spacey, but then
29:11
it's like, oh no. This is what they live their
29:13
lives in like, well, kind of when you're not in there, like,
29:19
so Squid octopus form. Wait for me.
29:21
Yeah, I we do not have quotes on a costume designer, but we do
29:27
have audio clips from the actual film.
29:29
That I think just kind of make up for it.
29:31
Ready for one of my favorite scenes?
29:33
Yes, I am. Come on bubba.
29:36
Excuse me. I must speak to you.
29:38
It is a matter of supreme importance.
29:40
We also means from the cloud to nebula need your help.
29:46
We need your help. I I also love cuz I'm like
29:52
pleather especially liked weather, being that tight, it
29:55
can look very awkward if it's not done, right?
29:58
And like very like scrunched up but the way they like barely
30:02
move the pleather is like perfect because it likes stays
30:06
in place, like it's just shiny and beautiful, and they're just
30:11
like, waddling around barely moving.
30:15
I love it because it's so form fitting.
30:17
So kind of like shows, Off their figures a little bit and some of
30:22
them have like legit dad pods, which makes it more hilarious as
30:26
a kind of like waddling around in their alien.
30:28
Walk at this time, it's all great.
30:31
Oh here's another costume sketch and this is I'm guessing for
30:35
Missy piles character. But you could see that when they
30:38
originally were coming up with these uniforms, they really put
30:42
together some really interesting Fabrics so they were intending
30:46
for these uniforms to look legit.
30:49
Yeah. No, they do.
30:50
They do. Before he leaves convention.
30:54
We have one more character. Justin Long, who plays Brandon,
30:57
which I feel like his name is Brandon and every film he shows
31:01
up he you know he has a very put together.
31:05
You could tell he's a dedicated fan.
31:07
Yeah. They're like these are the
31:09
people who bought their costumes off at sea for like five hundred
31:13
dollars because the person who makes them puts time into them
31:19
aka the Elizabeth character. Yeah, I know.
31:22
My own. Oh I'm sorry.
31:25
I'm so sorry. Make my own cosplay.
31:27
Thank you very much. Has Justin long.
31:34
Just look like this forever. I feel like he just doesn't age.
31:37
She just always looks the same. Yeah, pretty much.
31:41
He's one of the other vampires, right?
31:45
He's in the club of Paul Rudd's one.
31:47
Yeah. Jeepers Creepers almost have
31:49
been not too long after this though.
31:52
For 2002, something like that. Something like that.
31:56
So it's someone watch Galaxy Quest or like we need this guy
31:59
in a horror film, because absolute nerd, screams will do
32:05
well in horror film, right? Yeah.
32:08
That's true. I love when they're on the
32:11
phone. This was so cute.
32:13
I'm like, oh, they are besties. I love the scene.
32:19
Where Alan rickman's character is walking.
32:22
In the house. And you can't tell if you just
32:24
worked out or he just showered either way.
32:27
It's both absurd. But because he still has all the
32:30
makeup on. Like he just remains in the
32:32
character. It's a stupid.
32:35
That's his jumpsuit. He has it unzipped halfway.
32:40
Oh, I literally just got home and he's like, oh, does your
32:45
such a shower that's so fun. Okay, that makes sense.
32:49
It isn't half zipped. Wow, Daniel, you're a real pro
32:51
at this. This.
32:52
Yeah, look at you catching it. I do love.
32:57
Sigourney Weaver's character. She's like, just trying to chill
33:00
but like also. So concerned about Tim Allen's
33:04
character she's just like. What is with this dude?
33:06
Why? Yeah, I like that.
33:09
She's wearing a kimono to hurt ya.
33:12
Her robe is beautiful. And has I also love their houses
33:18
because it's like clearly like they do, okay.
33:22
You just don't do great. Yeah.
33:24
And then you see Tim Allen's house and it's like are you
33:31
living above your means? Or have you just done better
33:33
than them somehow? Yeah, he's kind of screwed him
33:37
over a little bit or sure gotten a few extra shekels.
33:41
Yeah he for sure like gets paid the most on the cast and he does
33:45
way more solo appearances than anyone else but all the others
33:49
have to be together but he just gets the Well, it's just like my
33:53
hatred for Tim Allen. Just seems to translate into his
33:56
own. He's the same person but his
34:02
house is beautiful and I do. The thing is I relate to his
34:07
character at a couple different times when he's just like at
34:10
home, like having a drink walk around just like white button-up
34:14
shirt. I like I get it.
34:16
You know, Donald ducking it. Taking it.
34:21
Never use that phrase again on his podcast.
34:27
Hi s. Oh my God.
34:34
Yeah I think we can all relate to him.
34:37
Just like being sad at home and trying to be chill but not
34:40
achieving not achieving chillness, just getting drunk,
34:46
but it brings us to the next Going to one of my other
34:50
favorite Parts, when the thermians show up there trying
34:52
to get inside his house and they're all just kind of like,
34:55
okay, it's time to go and he thinks he's going to set.
34:58
And it's just so funny watching the 30 and sister at him as he's
35:03
Donald ducking it in his bedroom you too.
35:07
They come in. They're like you are our last
35:10
hope. He's half dressed like does not
35:19
have it. Together.
35:19
Is wearing sunglasses for a good, like 15 minutes.
35:23
Even in the car like hungover. Speaking of the car, the car is
35:28
probably my favorite scene is so funny.
35:31
Missy piles just carries the scene.
35:34
She has like barely any dialogue in his film, if at all.
35:38
And and this is her moment to shine.
35:41
I actually have an audio clip from when she kind of Talked
35:44
about developing her own alien language.
35:47
So it's, I think it's hilarious and I think you both will love
35:50
it too. Rico is really the one
35:52
responsible for the way that everyone talk to, you know, like
35:55
that I didn't have much dialogue and also I just kind of smiled.
35:58
And then I first thing which is Doesn't she talk?
36:04
Her translator is broken. What it says in the script which
36:12
I thought was so funny was the, sound comes out of the
36:15
transmitter, like a baby in a bagpipe.
36:25
I love that. Oh my gosh, that's hilarious.
36:28
I straight ugly cried. When I watched a scene, the
36:31
other night preparing for this far.
36:33
It's been a while. Oh, my God.
36:35
That was so funny. You weren't prepared.
36:40
Yeah, I wasn't prepared. So that's Elizabeth mentioned,
36:46
our commander has board the protector and he Has his Coke in
36:50
hand and sunglasses. This is very Spencer move right
36:53
here. I feel this really hard with the
36:56
shirt. He pulled out of the laundry,
37:01
like he just grabbed whatever. Like his, like, I feel like
37:05
they're white cat. Like almost white khaki pants
37:08
that are wrinkled his shirts wrinkled than just like, it's
37:12
like gross brown jacket. Like he was not prepared for
37:16
this. Yeah, this is this is sad.
37:19
It's like couch suede. Yeah, yeah.
37:23
Go to sleep props to the costume designer because he really knew
37:27
how to make this an ugly costume, you know.
37:30
Sometimes it's a craft to put together.
37:31
Something that's so hideous. Yeah.
37:35
But you at the way it's wrinkled.
37:36
I'm like, they clearly just like bald that up and left it
37:39
somewhere for a very long time. Yeah, for sure, they probably
37:44
made him wear it for a long time.
37:45
Let him sweat in it. All right.
37:49
Well by grabthar's Hammer Hammer.
37:52
Well, I fuck that up by grabthar's Hammer.
37:56
Take two by grabthar's. Hammer.
37:59
What a savings? It's time for another Galaxy
38:03
Quest showing? Yeah, yeah, this is just sad.
38:08
There's only like 10 people in the audience there outside like
38:12
some sort of hardware store. But yeah, I mean it just shows
38:17
how the Media just seen of takes advantage of some of these
38:22
celebrities, make just type, casting them for the rest of
38:24
their lives. To do the same thing over and
38:26
over and over but when they get beamed up, that is the funniest
38:31
thing ever. Yeah.
38:32
It's a horror flick they're there in their uniforms.
38:36
Like I said there's not a lot of costume changes but we do get to
38:39
see the thermians without their costume.
38:41
On the Thurman design is terrible.
38:46
It's scary. Koreans are just like giant
38:51
like, octopuses basic space. Octopus is basically like just
38:57
lots of tentacles, lots of tubes and flaps and just, yeah, they
39:04
probably know star the destroyer from Suicide Squad.
39:10
Like I do have a little quote from the Stan Winston film
39:14
school. Once again, that kind of talks
39:16
about the process of making the thermians, which I thought was
39:18
really interesting. Ting, it goes to say designs for
39:22
the creatures, began with Harold Ramos, who was attached as
39:27
director and continued under direction of Steven Spielberg.
39:30
Who's Dreamworks Studios producing the film?
39:33
But, eventually Harold Ramis did leave, the project.
39:36
Just so you all know, Harold Ramis also is part of Office
39:38
later on too, so I'm starting to wonder if maybe that's where
39:41
that connection came. Stan, Winston's crew.
39:45
Built the thermians five, large brightly colored cable Operated
39:50
silicone, puppets separately. Molding 4510 Nicole's for each
39:54
one. The puppets were built and
39:56
painted performance was rehearsed and ready with only
39:59
two weeks remaining before they were to be taken to the set for
40:02
filming stand. Got a call from Steven
40:05
Spielberg, who said he was not so sure about the therm and
40:07
design upon review. Spielberg had decided that they
40:11
were too bizarre and that should look more humanoid.
40:14
Like the aliens and his Close Encounters of the Third Kind,
40:17
but they still behind the scenes is kind of panicking.
40:20
They're like, well, what the heck?
40:22
But as I got closer Steven Spielberg, ultimately said,
40:26
yeah, they're fine. And that's what they stuck with
40:29
and that's literally How The Story Goes.
40:31
I love how he was, like, no, I don't know.
40:33
Is like he's like, yeah, okay, fine.
40:38
And they were like melting. Trying to build that in like
40:41
three weeks, hell no? Yeah, I mean, I would be like,
40:44
okay, well, if you don't like this mr.
40:46
Spielberg I don't really know what we're going to do.
40:49
Yeah, you get what you get. But yeah, they're they're
40:55
hilarious and beautiful and I love the colors.
40:59
And before we go to break, I feel like this is a good time to
41:01
really observe the thermians. They really have such a like a
41:06
cohesive way of speaking and talking, it's so funny seeing
41:10
them on the ship wonders just like hundreds of them.
41:13
I didn't realize that there were so many.
41:15
Hmm. Yeah, I didn't realize how like
41:17
basically all of them have the law.
41:19
At Christmas haircut from Dumb and Dumber but they do too.
41:28
It's which is confusing to me because if they're in that like
41:31
octopus form, but like this is their way of like, translating
41:36
to our human cast. Why did they all choose this
41:39
haircut? Because they're probably, like
41:41
this is what humans where? Yeah, definitely.
41:48
I do have a little audio clip called creating the therm, Ian
41:53
race alien school, and the cast talks about how they practice,
41:58
becoming aliens are rewarding. We had alien school for an hour
42:03
every day. That's where we came up with the
42:04
walk where we're going against, what you usually do with your
42:07
arms. I remember walking into the
42:09
soundstage and and it was like, what is going on in?
42:11
There were like all these guys all doing the walking under a
42:14
start to walk that way. Try it sometime go the opposite.
42:18
Way, the your arms normally go. That's genius, were he?
42:22
And Chad and messy and Patrick came up with it.
42:25
Also, immensely disciplined, what they were doing.
42:28
There wasn't a move out of place.
42:31
It's like they've got some electric wire between the mall.
42:35
Yeah, yes, yeah, I didn't think about that like, that must be
42:38
very hard the way they walk. It's so funny to like imagining
42:43
Alan Rickman onset. Him being Alan Rickman.
42:46
He's just seeing all these aliens.
42:47
I just Imagine he was very in character.
42:49
Like what is going on? Well I feel like he admired it
42:54
to how much work they put into it.
42:57
Oh, for sure, speaking of break, would you guys like some like,
43:03
crab octopus? Aliens do no.
43:08
Mmm, my favorite. That's the way my mother used to
43:11
make all the games like horny. Weaver was a salad.
43:15
Oh Mike. Oh My God is that only like two
43:21
pieces of lettuce. Yeah, I never noticed that it's
43:28
terrible. Hey, I love how they point out
43:32
really shitty things about like the entertainment industry in
43:35
this movie. Like they don't say anything
43:37
about it. They're just like, oh yeah,
43:38
that's how it is. But Tim Allen's character is of
43:41
course going down on a big-ass steak which yeah, can I just say
43:45
as a Tim Allen hater, it's getting progressively.
43:56
The round. If you're listening, I'm sorry
43:57
we could talk about it but I just really have to get over
44:00
this. Yeah, I bet that steak though.
44:05
For real though, it looked good real good.
44:12
I never noticed the salad either that's horrific.
44:15
I did not know that. Yeah, I guess this is what Alan
44:19
rickman's character, a in the show was like octopus.
44:23
Do if some crabs and Scorpions, and whatever the heck's in there
44:28
or I'm guessing like because fans will go off and create like
44:32
what they think. Like oh this like the characters
44:35
backstory and like what like what their homeworlds like and
44:38
I'm like maybe they pulled like a really weird rest, like thing
44:42
created, recipe really is All right.
44:48
Well, I think we should take a little break before we get
44:51
boarded by some very scary looking aliens.
44:55
Yeah, yeah. We should be right back.
45:12
Hi. This is Dan.
45:13

45:17

45:36
Thank you for all of your support.
45:55
Alright welcome back everyone. Loved that intro.
46:02
Was that a little Pepe? Yeah, very happy for some not
46:07
very happy characters. Yeah, you don't love this part.
46:12
All. But he was gross is where
46:15
hungover Tim Allen. See, Sarah's for General,
46:18
Sarah's for the first time. Oh yeah, it's rough.
46:22
Yeah, saris is played by Robin sacks and what an incredible
46:26
costume. I've actually seen this one in
46:28
person before and you has, yeah, they had it at the Museum in
46:33
Seattle for a while and it's how it's terrifying.
46:37
It looks just like this. It's just like, it's so gross.
46:42
And it's like, I don't know where his armor starts in his
46:44
body and like and also is he kind of a cyborg?
46:49
I think he just has an eye patch.
46:51
Maybe I do not like his arms have wires and stuff, maybe
46:55
because I'm that stuff on his head as well.
46:59
I never understood what he was, but I mean, he looks pretty
47:02
badass. Yeah, he's definitely pretty
47:05
scary. It frustrated me for a while
47:08
that like no one seemed to really be panicking about this
47:11
guy. Ellen, was like ashes, fire, all
47:14
the Torpedoes? Like, all right, I gotta go like
47:17
even Lord Voldemort would be like, who is this guy?
47:20
I don't know. I like him, right?
47:23
It's scary. Yeah, so it's like they build a
47:28
costume out to be really. This is a collaboration of
47:31
visual effects and makeup, but this costume really, it's built
47:35
to look like armor. But like, it's so kind of like
47:38
plated where you can't really tell how much of its armor and
47:41
how much of it isn't, but you can see like the outline of the
47:44
breastplate and like the shoulder pieces and kind of
47:48
like, this Hood behind him, it's really interesting.
47:52
Oh, is that what that is? Yeah, I don't think it's a
47:56
functional Hood but it's, you know, built like a hood.
48:00
I don't think it moves because like we said, we don't know if
48:02
it's a part of him or if it's a part of his armor.
48:07
Yeah. Cuz it looks like a hood but
48:08
clearly, it's like melded into the rest of him as well.
48:12
Yeah, either way I would love to see what this guy's pajamas look
48:17
like. It would really explain a lot
48:21
for jammas. Very cool.
48:24
Very scary. Definitely one of the scarier
48:28
creatures are costumes. We've seen on this podcast so
48:30
far. Yeah.
48:32
And that whole race to is kind of freaky looking.
48:35
They're all like shiny and oily. Yeah, I love how the lighting
48:40
changes on their shift ship. It's like all green and gross,
48:45
very spooky. It gives me kind of like Lord of
48:47
the Rings Orcs, but now I'm thinking of it.
48:50
This is before. Lord of the Rings.
48:52
Yeah. So, I mean, there's plenty of
48:55
growth sci-fi creatures that look like this.
48:58
Yeah, I'm sure actually, this is a knockoff on one of the Star
49:02
Trek species. Hmm, it's cold like xindi or
49:07
xindi. Well, with my 0 Star Trek
49:11
knowledge base. I'm going to say that you're
49:12
correct. But yeah, I looked it up before
49:18
before starting and it's like very very similar at that
49:21
wouldn't surprise me I'm not sure.
49:23
Came from Star Trek realm. Speaking of Realms, I felt
49:28
really familiar to me though, was when our characters, go to
49:32
this desert Planet, I had to look it up.
49:34
And make sure this isn't where I grew up and it is not.
49:37
The value is actually is actually taking place in Utah.
49:41
I believe which makes a lot of sense.
49:44
Now, to look at it. Oh my gosh, I forgot about this
49:47
part and it made me so sad. It makes me sad every single
49:50
time. Why the miners?
49:53
Yeah. Yeah, when the miners tear apart
49:55
the one that's injured. Its horror miners, not minors.
50:02
So stupid. In this part.
50:04
Lily makes me upset. It used to make me sound
50:08
comfortable as a kid and it still does.
50:09
I don't, I don't like it does. Yeah.
50:13
Why did they have to be naked to?
50:14
Why do they have to be like a little chat aliens?
50:17
That's the little alien booties. Really.
50:20
Bother me, the little booties. This is where they gave them
50:26
Steven, Spielberg, his close encounter is looking, hellions.
50:31
Don't worry sir. We got something, that'll make
50:33
you real happy. And you know I do love some good
50:38
ol nudity but not these little guys, really creeps me out.
50:44
It gives me like alien Cupid Vibes.
50:47
Oh yes. Like just imagine while these
50:49
little blue guys with like a little bow and arrow with like
50:53
the wings that would be a good tattoo gosh.
51:02
Then we have the Pig lizard, which I was not prepared to talk
51:07
about the Pig lizard and then I dove into some research.
51:10
There's a person in sight is thing.
51:12
Yeah, I don't know why I'm searching.
51:14
Yeah, I found a little clip of like the test and there's
51:18
literally a person like curled up inside this giant pig.
51:22
Lizard, making it move. It's so creepy that makes it so
51:28
much more creepier. Yes, gross Oh my gosh, for
51:36
watching a video of the test and we'll put in the notes because
51:38
it's very scary and it's twerking for like the test.
51:46
This is the nightmare feel I'm gonna keep going next.
51:53
Well, luckily luckily, we don't have to deal with the Pig lizard
52:00
too long. Ang because he gets warped up
52:02
into the ship and gets turned into a nice plate of like mashed
52:06
potatoes. Just got some shepherd's pie,
52:14
Daniel says guts everywhere, and it doesn't FaZe the thermians.
52:18
It's just like caked all over their face and it just like, you
52:22
know, whatever. Nothing fazes them.
52:24
Yeah. They're like how the tongue
52:26
moves when it's like inside out. Oh Ma'am.
52:30
Of can't even like this also reminded me though, if I feel
52:35
like, if I was on a desert Planet, this would totally be
52:38
something Elizabeth and Daniel would do, or they pick.
52:41
Oh, everything's fine up here. We're just gonna warp you up.
52:44
And I'm like, what's that noise are like, oh nothing.
52:46
Everything's good. Don't worry about the worry
52:51
about it. We're nearing the end of this
52:57
film. But before we do, we have some
52:59
more saris axis. Action and we get to see him in
53:02
All His glory the costume from head to toe, and it doesn't help
53:06
that he's like a solid, like 20 feet tall.
53:09
He's he's tall, he's scary. Yeah.
53:13
No, that's it. That's it from everyone.
53:15
No, I love this scene but I also love their little like, like the
53:21
ones that clearly aren't anybody important?
53:24
The just the soldiers. They look like they're wearing
53:28
the like, in the Army. The suits to like hide in like
53:33
bushes and stuff. All right.
53:35
Yeah. They have like the camouflage on
53:38
and it does kind of have like an army type helmet and I didn't
53:41
really think of it like Like that, right?
53:43
Oh, that's so interesting. It's kind of like a turtle shell
53:46
on her head, which kind of reminds me of like, you know,
53:49
World War 1 or 2 helmet. It's called a ghillie suit.
53:54
Yeah. Ghillie suit.
53:54
Ya? Dang, Elizabeth.
53:56
Yeah. You're right.
53:58
Yeah. They look like ghillie suits.
54:01
Hell yeah. All this podcasting really is
54:06
starting to pay off with her. Yes, your knowledge terms.
54:09
So does that race have A list of top Zaid, he's no, but I think
54:17
that you and I could write it, let's do it but I have I have a
54:21
feeling bashful article on the art of costume.
54:24
Yeah, I have a feelings saris. Wouldn't let anyone else be on a
54:28
list except Sarah's. Yeah.
54:29
Well if you're talking about thermians, which one Well.
54:37
I mean, you can include both request at ease if you're into
54:45
octopi moving on. We have a real nerd alert.
54:54
Oh, the 90s. Yeah, this brings me back.
55:00
I used to have that. Like almost same shirt as Justin
55:03
Long's K. I knew it.
55:05
I knew it. T-shirts and and flannels.
55:11
Yep, the cargo pants the Hawaiian shirts.
55:15
Oh man, this is Daniel to a tee. Justin Long's character.
55:19
Honestly pretty close. It's like looking at a young
55:23
Daniel, I mean, you are young, but a younger Daniel.
55:28
Yeah, I love this nerd. Seen I love, I love the idea
55:31
behind it that like, you know, our nerd knowledge has come to
55:35
you. So, we've saved the world.
55:37
And I just feel like me talking about all of my nerd knowledge
55:40
and the two of you like I feel like it really pays off and
55:43
people just don't appreciate it. Sometimes like this is what US
55:47
nerds dream of that one day, all of this absolutely useful
55:51
knowledge will come in handy to help somebody.
55:58
This is, these are the days we wait for right.
56:01
Otherwise Sigourney Weaver would have been crushed by the giant
56:04
metal, like right wall thingies and the Tires and stuff like we
56:09
did that. Tim Allen's character wouldn't
56:11
have known about the 13 seconds to change the world.
56:14
That's that's true. He would have known that thank
56:19
you Jared nerd. All right before it gets to the
56:24
end we actually haven't talked about one of the thermians yet
56:27
because he just hasn't had too many notable scenes.
56:29
But Patrick brain plays a character he unfortunately gets
56:33
shot which leads to this very sad scene where Alan rickman's
56:36
care. Actor, picks him up and gets
56:39
inspired to avenge him. Finally, yes, he says the line,
56:44
he never wants to say, and then I love when he, then they all
56:48
start fighting back. And I love how his like, his his
56:52
prosthetic head that like horses hair is just like tearing apart
56:56
and you can see like Jessica's hair coming at ya.
56:59
Yes. That was one of my favorite,
57:01
like notes when I was younger was like, wow!
57:03
Look at his head pieces coming apart, like it really like Kind
57:07
of broke the fantasy for a second and it's just really
57:09
cool. Yeah, I also love guy just
57:13
becoming the ultimate guy zip sound thing with The Medallion
57:19
they just embraced it. He just didn't phrase.
57:21
It looks like I am guy. I am crewman number seven.
57:28
It brings us to this moment where Missy piles and Fred hook
57:31
up, and I'm just saying kind of into it.
57:35
Yeah, I love that they found. Love may both seem very awkward.
57:41
I'm glad they found each other. Yeah, I love the tentacles
57:45
appearing. That's really great.
57:47
I also love Fred throughout this whole movie because I feel like
57:51
he was a famous actor at the time but he still hadn't like
57:54
achieved like his Peak Fame. So I love you only ever like
57:59
half the time you see him as like through the video feed?
58:01
We're like clearly, he's like helping in the engine room.
58:07
Not really doing anything. There's a funny scene where
58:11
they're like, flying down into the new planet and he's just
58:14
like eating his Lil cheese and crackers, like, say as little as
58:21
possible, and just like, get through this.
58:24
But then he has like the group hug with everybody.
58:26
Like, come on, guys. Yeah, he's just chilling.
58:29
Yeah, it's almost like he's high the whole time does seem like
58:32
he's high a little bit, which would make sense.
58:35
I mean, he's just on board eat Say cheese and crackers like um
58:40
so some sad turns of events happen.
58:44
Our crew has to tell mathesar that they're actually just
58:48
actors which I'm like mathesar, we could have figured us out if
58:51
we did a little bit of research. Yeah I get it.
58:55
It's very sad for everyone saves the day.
58:59
They are just working off the actual episodes.
59:03
I don't think they've done any research on earth, right?
59:06
Because they think, Historical documents know?
59:09
They did remember they're like, you don't think Gilligan's
59:12
Island is real. And they're like, well, I think
59:17
it was NASA at some point, they just sent out into space like a
59:24
like, a collection of stuff that represented Earth and I believe
59:28
Star Trek. Oh yeah, Gilligan's Island.
59:31
Are on whatever it is. I don't know if it's a sync
59:34
signal or like a satellite, I forget exactly what.
59:36
But I think both of those things are honored.
59:39
They put Star Trek. I know it's good.
59:41
Say that's an interesting choice.
59:44
Yeah, well because by the time they did, it start truck was
59:46
very popular. I mean, it's interesting as in,
59:49
if I was an alien. And now, yeah, picked up Star
59:53
Trek, I'd be very confused about what Earth is, I guess.
59:56
Oh yeah. It's a game.
59:59
Technical, that's funny. I didn't know this.
1:00:04
We don't have a lot of costume changes but we do see.
1:00:07
Edits to our cast is costumes by the end.
1:00:10
Sigourney Weaver's costume has somehow got more revealing more,
1:00:14
revealing more sexy, but in a badass way, she's showing off
1:00:20
her. Shoulders, her bra strap her bra
1:00:24
in general, and she's, she's clearly gone through some things
1:00:31
but it is. I think it's a funny note that
1:00:34
just her costumes, somehow. Just got more sexy.
1:00:36
See, it's just like still a poke at sci-fi films in general.
1:00:41
And then we have Alan rickman's character who just looks beat
1:00:44
and down. I mean he basically has a full
1:00:46
head of hair coming out of his his cap at this point.
1:00:52
We think we destroy saris, but we get back to Earth and the
1:00:57
ship crashes into by coincidence.
1:01:01
Another Galaxy Quest convention. Yeah.
1:01:03
What are the odds? The same.
1:01:05
It's the same convention. Because remember the newscaster
1:01:09
says like it's day whatever of the Galaxy Quest convention and
1:01:13
fans are upset that you know the cast is missing.
1:01:16
Oh I think it's like a week long or weekend-long convention dang.
1:01:22
Well, that makes it even funnier.
1:01:27
That's so they all think it's visual effects, which is
1:01:30
hilarious. Tim Allen's character, destroy
1:01:33
saris once and for all and our crew just walks out and takes a
1:01:39
bow. I'll busted.
1:01:41
Yeah. Looking all busted.
1:01:42
They have one of the thermians they're played by Missy piles
1:01:46
and there was just really happy to see the crew.
1:01:49
They all look great guy looks hilarious in this final bow.
1:01:54
He's clearly very Of himself. Oh yeah.
1:01:58
I love how they're all just like very shaken.
1:02:02
And then she's just what's her name.
1:02:06
I love how they all look very like frazzled and then like
1:02:09
Missy. She's just, they're still
1:02:11
standing there. Like yes, that just happens like
1:02:14
unfazed. She has no clue.
1:02:16
I mean, she probably thinks like everyone at this convention or
1:02:19
like actual aliens and like of a different species to is like.
1:02:23
Well, this is really interesting where Are we and then we end a
1:02:30
film with a look at the reboot of the new Galaxy Quest show and
1:02:37
Missy House. Characters brought back, they
1:02:39
don't know her actual name, it's lalaurie and they just call her
1:02:43
Jane Doe because clearly when she was negotiating her
1:02:46
contract, she didn't make it very clear.
1:02:48
What's going on here? And you can see Tech Sergeant
1:02:53
Chen. Guys stop.
1:03:00
I don't want to see that. I know so bad.
1:03:04
So bad. I do love their their reworked
1:03:09
suits though. The like clearly much nicer much
1:03:12
more fitted. Mmm right.
1:03:14
They finally got like that budget upgrade.
1:03:16
They've been asking for for you know decades now so they all
1:03:21
look great, Sigourney Weaver's. Character has nice hair this
1:03:27
time. You could tell it's a little bit
1:03:28
more of an upgraded wig, if it's not her real hair.
1:03:31
So she looks great. Tim Allen's character, you know,
1:03:35
he looks good, his suit looks good.
1:03:37
I'll give him that. I don't apesh, don't appreciate
1:03:40
seeing him and Sigourney Weaver. Kiss a little bit ago, but I'm
1:03:43
just going to go by that. Do you like how guys character's
1:03:47
name is Rock? He hasn't Named Sam Rockwell.
1:03:51
That's a good one. It's the subtle notes.
1:03:55
And that brings us to the end of Galaxy Quest.
1:04:02
I love this film so much. I'm so glad we watched it.
1:04:06
Yeah, me too. I was surprised looking like
1:04:08
watching it again. I didn't realize how little
1:04:10
costumes. There were right.
1:04:13
I and my he'll realize that stuff.
1:04:16
Yeah, I growing up. I so when we pitched this idea
1:04:20
of doing Galaxy Quest, I was like, oh well yeah there's so
1:04:22
many costumes and Galaxy Quest and then we are watching.
1:04:25
And gone that podcast really go. There's really not too many.
1:04:30
So now I'm in costumes, not much research.
1:04:33
Perfect know, either way still a lot of fun, but before we let
1:04:39
you go Daniel, do you know what we're about to do?
1:04:42
Oh yeah, one costume to rule them all.
1:04:44
Ruled, the roll the tape, Daniel the one costume to rule them
1:04:52
all. All right, Daniel since you're a
1:04:58
guest, why don't you go first? Well, it may not Shock you but
1:05:04
my one costume to rule them all as the Donald Duck outfit.
1:05:15
You killed Elizabeth for anyone who doesn't understand what
1:05:23
Daniel is referring to or time with the part.
1:05:25
Where Tim Allen's character is just wearing a shirt and no
1:05:28
pants, and I think no underwear to loons.
1:05:34
My gosh, what? I love that that you off that
1:05:40
Daniel, it just screams douchebag.
1:05:43
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Make for the character Tim
1:05:49
Allen, plays this character very well, great, great one costume,
1:05:53
rule them all Daniel. I'm glad that you, I thought you
1:05:55
liked that one. I'm so glad the costume designer
1:05:58
put that together for you. Alright, Lisbeth one is your one
1:06:03
Costume World, am all I need a palate cleanser after
1:06:05
Danielle's. My one costumes, rule them all
1:06:08
is Sigourney Weaver's costume for the new New run of Galaxy
1:06:14
Quest. Yeah, because it's it's nicer
1:06:20
and like you can tell like, it's still like, kind of like a
1:06:24
little sexy but you can tell like she no longer just repeats
1:06:28
what the ship is saying. Like it's much more refined and
1:06:33
you're like oh you have respect on this show now.
1:06:36
Beautiful, follow more business appropriate.
1:06:39
Yeah, they gave her the control back when it came to Her
1:06:43
character and I'm guessing telling the show's costume
1:06:46
designer. Like I'm done with that, we need
1:06:49
to upgraded costume, so that's awesome.
1:06:52
And what was your one costume Spencer, my 1-cos to rule them
1:06:56
all? I'm kind of wavering, but I keep
1:06:58
going back to this one costume that I loved A lot.
1:07:02
It was the moment where Alan rickman's character is at home
1:07:05
and he's walking around with all this.
1:07:07
Make us a lot and he's just kind of like lounging but his form is
1:07:13
like half unzipped after A Hard Day's Work.
1:07:17
Yeah, I just it's so funny because it's like awesome nerds,
1:07:21
you know like unzipping our nerd costume and just sitting down on
1:07:25
the couch it's just it's hilarious.
1:07:28
Real funny. I was trying not to stick with
1:07:30
Sigourney Weaver which Elizabeth probably thought I was going to
1:07:33
pick. So I got away from it and that
1:07:35
was my guess. I honestly I wasn't sure what
1:07:40
everybody was going to pick. I wasn't sure until the Very
1:07:43
last moment because there were some good ones.
1:07:45
Like I almost went with the thermians.
1:07:48
Yeah. But I feel like her final
1:07:50
costume really shows growth. Yeah, I almost picked, Missy
1:07:54
piles their me and suit, but guys was the runner-up for me
1:07:57
when he had his shirt or his jumpsuit zipped up, or unda?
1:08:02
Yeah, that's very guy. Yeah.
1:08:06
And that brings us to the end of Galaxy Quest.
1:08:09
Daniel. Thank you so much for being
1:08:11
here. This is fun.
1:08:12
I wish you would Be on every episode.
1:08:14
Yeah, maybe I'll make a few appearances here and there, you
1:08:16
should. You should.
1:08:18
That would be awesome. Thank you so much for everything
1:08:21
you do for the podcast. We would not be where we are
1:08:25
without you. I mean, we record sometimes
1:08:28
really long episodes. Danny has edit them down, edit
1:08:32
all of our arms, our likes and our bloopers, which we have a
1:08:37
lot of them. You've all probably don't hear
1:08:39
all of them, unless you subscribe to our patreon and
1:08:43
Yeah, there's a lot so Daniel really makes this whole thing
1:08:45
come together. And he's been here since day
1:08:47
one. So we love, you know, I love you
1:08:50
too. I'll be Dan.
1:08:52
We hope is what we said, the moment I tried to edit the first
1:09:01
episode, right? Like I can't do this.
1:09:03
Yeah, I don't think everyone knows that Elizabeth and I try
1:09:07
to edit the very first episode and we were like he and no, no.
1:09:12
It was like Calf or our recording.
1:09:14
Yeah, Captain America gone. But never forgotten.
1:09:22
Those were the days of thank you, Daniel.
1:09:26
This is one so much fun and for all of you next week our space
1:09:30
month continues. We are going into a different
1:09:34
kind of space next week with the Multiverse as we are watching
1:09:39
the brand new film, which I have not even seen yet.
