The Weekly Stuff #305 – Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, Pokemon Sword & Shield, Disney+, Xbox News, Movie Reviews, Streaming Trivia, and more!

In one of the busiest, most jam-packed podcasts we’ve ever recorded, we give first impressions of the week’s two major video game releases, Pokemon Sword & Shield for Nintendo Switch and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order for the PS4. Star Wars in particular is an incredibly surprising, exciting game, and gives us a lot to talk about without ever touching on any spoilers. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Jonathan also reviews a slew of November movies – Jojo Rabbit, Doctor Sleep, Ford v Ferrari and Parasite – Sean gushes over Criterion’s Godzilla collection, we discuss Sonic the Hedgehog’s Hollywood makeover, cover all the news out of Microsoft’s X019 event, talk about the future of Bioware’s Anthem, discuss the launch of Disney+, and to cap it all off, play a very silly trivia game about the ridiculous nature of the streaming video landscape. Time Chart:Intro: 0:00:00 – 0:07:15Stuff: 0:07:15 – 0:23:57Jonathan’s Movie Reviews: 0:23:57 – 0:42:23Movie News: 0:42:23 – 1:15:37Gaming News: 1:15:37 – 1:57:13Pokemon: 1:57:13 – 2:11:18Jedi Fallen Order: 2:11:18 – 3:01:05Disney+: 3:01:05 – 3:10:20Streaming Service Trivia Game: 3:10:20 – 3:26:57Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!Subscribe for free to 'The Weekly Stuff' in iTunes!Follow Jonathan Lack on Twitter!Follow Sean Chapman on Twitter!
