On the December 13, 2018 episode of /Film Daily, /Film editor in chief Peter Sciretta is joined by /Film managing editor Jacob Hall, senior writer Ben Pearson and writer Hoai-Tran Bui to answer questions in the Mail Bag.   You can subscribe to /Film Daily on iTunes, Google Play, Overcast, Spotify and all the popular podcast apps (here is the RSS URL if you need it).   Opening Banter: Peter plug’s his feature today: Keto at Disneyland: How to Eat Low Carb at Walt’s Original Magic Kingdom   Feedback: Mike from Yonkers writes in “Hey Slashfilm crew,  After seeing the officially announced cast for "The Mandalorian", I have to say I'm quite surprised at how old it is. It's the first live action Star Wars property to not have anyone in their principle cast younger than 35. I did some math and the average age of the cast is 54 years old, much higher than any of Disney's SW films (TFA and Solo are the youngest at 38, TLJ and Episode IX at 41, and Rogue One at 44). What do you think this says about the show itself? Do you think some of the oldest cast members have long contracts? I'm not trying to imply anything morbid, just wondering if someone of an older age wants to be tied up with a multi-season show for a number of years.   I'm really excited for what this could mean. With Dave Filoni's involvement, I've already wondered if we'd see the return of some of his Clone Wars characters. Maybe some of these actors will portray older versions of them.  Thanks again for a great podcast! Mike from Yonkers Note: For the averages, I only used the ages of non-returning actors. For example, Daisy Ridley was only used for TFA when she was introduced and not TLJ and IX.” Saul writes in “Hey guys,   Just heard the episode where you discuss Netflix's new Instant Replay feature. I have had first hand experience with this feature. My daughter has been watching Moana or Coco about 10 times a day and there are times where she wants to rewind to listen to a song all over. About a few days ago I noticed that little box pop up that says "Replay Song" and have since shown my daughter that if she wants to listen to a song all over she can just press the enter button once it pops up. Needless to say it's a lifesaver. I haven't seen this feature pop up on any other movie or TV show. I don't know if it's just for the kids movie musicals, I for one am ok if it's just for that.   Thanks for the show.” We asked for observations about the Avengers: Endgame trailer. Brian writes in “The way the title reveals itself, with the Avengers A bringing its own shattered pieces back together, almost like an explosion played in reverse, suggests to me that reversing time, or time travel in some way, is definitely a component of the story.” Jason from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia writes in “Hi Peter and Slash Film crew,  I really enjoy listening to the podcast everyday, and thank you for all the awesome reviews, news, and coverage.   I know I am many days late on sending in my thoughts around the Avengers 4 movie title but here I am. End Game as a title is fine, good, reflects the storyline and desperation and etc. However, I feel what probably will resonate best is Avengers: Assemble.   In all 3 Avengers films, there has not been any “Avengers, assemble!” roll call by any character except for the very close one in Age of Ultron by Cap, but cut right at the moment he was about to say “assemble”.   Calling it Avengers Assemble gives out that positive vibe and bound to resonate with fans who have been wanting to hear that out loud for the longest time. It is also literally assembling all the heroes for a final assault, and assembling both generations of Avengers and handing over the baton.   Yeah, just my thought.   Thank you!” Steve B writes in in response to our Christmas movie argument: “Most films are not just one genre. '21 Jump Street' is a comedy, but also an action movie. Shaun Of The Dead is a comedy but also a horror movie.  In that vein, I say Die Hard is an Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Sean from Boston writes in “Chris, I am a young professional who, like many millennials, still lives at home.  It’s just my Mom and I, and for the most part our daily fair of shared TV viewership includes nothing but binging our backlog of Jeopardy, and House Hunters from the DVR.  Sometimes though we want to watch a movie, and this is what brings me to your corner for advice. Typically, when we decide we to watch a movie, my Mom insists on scouring the streaming services for something to watch, and this process can take what feels like hours. Not only that, but the films she often gravitates toward through this haphazard process are, shall we say, not of a high standard of quality.  I know I should be patient and flexible, but with so many good movies out there to watch, both new and old, I need a fair democratic way of selecting something to watch. I’d like you to take this opportunity to help friends, roommates, and significant others everywhere who are frustrated by the shared media consumption selection process, and come up with a set of rules governing this “Chris Approved” method.   Personally I’m partial to making a list of movies we each want to watch, then eliminate all that do not overlap, and go from there, but I leave this question open ended for you to be creative with finding a fair solution that is as simple, or as complex as you wish to make it.” All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
