Missy Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 As of tomorrow, Earth-2.net: The Show will be 20 episodes away from 1000! And though some ideas have been kicked around, nothing is set in stone. That's where you come in: What ideas do you have for our 1000th episode? Please note, we'd like to have as many contributors as possible, so very narrow topics (RE: a single movie) are likely to be ruled out. Also be aware that episode 1000 will be our final episode of 2017, which means we will not be doing an Advent Calendar this year. But do not fret! Thanks to a wonderful suggestion by Will, we will be conducting a 12 Days of Earth-2.net: The Show this time around! More on that later, though; this thread is all about 1000, so let's hear those suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Compiling a list of what has already been suggested: Watchmen (original comic, movie, and Before Watchmen books) Projects We've Been Putting Off/Dream Projects/Contributor Specials Ghostbusters Batman Spider-Man The Simpsons South Park Looney Tunes Nintendo (though it's been suggested that we could do a Nintendo week next year to coincide with the Famicom's 35th anniversary release) DC Comics (Akin to 750's Marvel show) general WTF/Comics, Everybody! movies/TV shows based on books a tribute to a specific decade Something akin to the Big Picture Show at the end of Black and White Week The Fantastic Four An Earth-2.net Carol (Segments/podcasts of Past, Present, and Future) Earth-2.net Stew (segments with different hosts) At this point, I'm cool with basically anything. Some ideas I feel have more steam than others but I feel like I can come up with segments for just about any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Jigsaw. Just kidding. Films of 2005? IE- the year of the first episode? War of the Worlds or Peter Jacksons King Kong seem simplest and lend themselves to comparisons with prior classic editions. Easy to build an episode around. Neither seems to have merited a review before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenalphabro Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Personally, I just want to do a segment where Dubs and I talk about either a Cronenberg movie, a Lynch movie, or both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Know Who Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Just as the future was the theme of the 10th anniversary, maybe Episode 1000 could be about alternate realities and have reviews of things like DC’s Elseworlds stories, Stranger Things, The Farnsworth Parabox, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 At this point, the topics I like the most are The Simpsons, 2005, and An Earth-2.net Carol (for completely selfish reasons there). I can come up with a segment for anything though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Know Who Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I'd be happy to join in on an Earth-2.net: Christmas Carol (where one of the Wilsons needs to be Fezziwig or the Ghost of Earth-2 present) or for 2005 film reviews (esp. King Kong and/or Chronicles of Narnia) but my viewing experience of The Simpsons is way too scattershot for me to contribute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pan-dub Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I'm down for anything video games-y (like the 2005 in video games idea) and a E2 Christmas Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenalphabro Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I really wanna yell about Nier: Automata with someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjoyadet Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 How about interstitials where listeners can give elevator speeches about either how they came to Earth-2, their favorite episode, least favorite episode, or just what they would like to see in the next thousand episodes. Where and how could they give their feedback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted November 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Two more suggestions: The movies, comics, TV shows, games, etc. that hooked us into the genres / mediums we now love. The things that made us say, "I want more of that, please." Using the 2005 idea as a launching pad: Things that were released in the last 12 years that have yet to be covered on The Show.

Donomark Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Maybe talk about how the political climate affected the media we consumed (comics, movies, etc) and the pros/cons or better/worst versions of that? Might get dicey, just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
