Summary

This week sees the debut of a small indie film that the Empire Podteam haven't been looking forward to. Honest, guv. That film is Avengers: Infinity War, and this week's podcast sees the film's directors, Joe and Anthony Russo, talk to Chris Hewitt about working on that film, and about what they have planned post-Marvel with their very own studio, Agbo. Then Chris retreats to the safety of the podbooth, and is joined by Helen O'Hara and James Dyer for a fun-filled pod that takes in their best and worst movie premiere experiences, casts an eye over the week's movie news, compares the Venom trailer to a Christmas present, and finally reviews British indie Beast and American indie Avengers: Infinity War. Be warned: there are huge levels of squee in this podcast. Thanos demands your squeeness.

I don't have any favorite avarots because I refuse them all and if I see any of them I will refuse to buy them even if I want them.

2:35.0

You know, thanks Chris. You didn't go see Avengers at midnight. I did not go and see them at midnight but I did see it on the Tuesday night and then again with you immediately following that on immediately.

2:48.0

The Wednesday morning because immediately would have been ten o'clock. That's true. I mean, it was very difficult for me to go to the screening knowing that I was missing the

role of the game. I was checking the score throughout the film to make sure that us read.

3:02.1

That's what they might have been in a way. I don't know. What's the other? What's the other color? Is it red? Is it one red?

3:10.1

Liverpool. What color do they play? Oh, well, this season they play away in a sort of green and white combination.

3:16.1

One word answer would be fine. The third kit is a beautiful orange number. A third kit. So they have a home kit that have an away kit and they have a third kit for Sunday best.

3:29.1

So what happens is if you are playing a team that has red and you're away from home, you can't wear something that clashes with them and if they have white on their kit as well or green on their kit, which is very unlikely.

3:42.1

Then you can use that's when you use your third kit. Yeah, so they use the reality kit mainly and then they have the time kit for when they visit people.

3:49.1

And the power kit. The power kit is very important. And believe me, it was. Yeah, I am as people will know who listened to the podcast last couple of weeks. I had a dilemma. Do I watch Avengers Infinity War for the first time or do I watch Liverpool play Roma in the first leg of the Champions League semi final?

4:05.1

As it turned out, I really didn't either. I because the gods scheduled a phone interview directly against both. And so I watched half an hour of the Liverpool game because the phone are but ran really late.

4:20.1

And ironically, I went to the Infinity War with David Morrissey. So that was a nice one.

4:25.1

And if there are any Disney security people listening, I would like to make clear that Chris that James was not actually checking his phone. No, he was not least. I don't care.

4:34.1

But I just I jimbo was really, really helpful if you do actually film Infinity War for us. And then so that you can watch it out.

4:40.1

Yeah, I felt it lost a little something. I can hear people like chewing popcorn and stuff and then a big brother look came across and asked you to, you know, no, of course not.

4:49.1

And the end of the podcast. For podcast does not condone piracy. Video piracy is a crime. Do not accept it. If you know anyone who Pirates of video, doble them in because you can get up to a grand.

5:01.1

Oh, really? Oh, no. Yeah, that's how I pay it my way through university. Anyway, welcome both. Should we have a question? Yes.

5:08.1

Yes, certainly. Here's a good question. This is from Lion, oh, 32, finally medium of Twitter.
