S2E1.5: Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro

Comments

They don't acknowledge that it's a recurring thing because it *wasn't* a recurring thing yet! I mean, Lupin and Zenigata had a few slapstick scenes before where they had to escape a bigger threat together, but they'd never consciously had to work together before. Remember that "Lupin III: The First" wasn't canon yet lmao

guess

french people say lu-pehng

French people: Lu-peen Americans: Loopin’ Brits, apparently: Loop-on Very fun episode!

41:44 The Lupin wiki's page on Fujiko describes her appearance here, with two grenades and an Uzi, plus a pistol in a shoulder holster, as "Fujiko's more gruff look". I'm not sure if that's an understatement, or just a weird choice of words.

I have 32 years of watching this movie at least twice a year and I have to say you did our boy completely dirty by watching the modern dub. Everything you didn't like about the film is made worse by the joyless casting and trash script changes. The Streamline dub has so much charm and good natured fun with the material, everyone was bringing their 'A' game in the booth, and they absolutely catch the vibe of Miyazaki's take on Lupin. Had to say it soz, loved the pod regardless, as ever 🤙🤙🤙

I didn't know this podcast had such contempt for Miyazaki's vibe-based storytelling.

I remember really enjoying Breach so in the spirit of the show I'm sure it's actually shite

I simply could not get past the Miyazaki hot takes in this episode. What is it that you ladies require from a third act? How are movies supposed to end, in your view? Do they all stink? Utterly perplexing.

You can say what you want about the rest, but Princess Mononoke DOES NOT fall apart in the final act.

22:48 it's literally the "haha money machine go brrrrr" meme

Yay! They're doing the Lupin movie they should have done all along.

Kevin Bodel

Does Lupin ever say 'nanomachines'?

Subspace Jet Witch

Finally, a good movie
