00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.960
Mac. I had a true Fenton's
horse Ranch moment over the weekend. I'm

2
00:00:05.960 --> 00:00:08.960
not having any any fun right now. I'd like to get off. I

3
00:00:09.400 --> 00:00:14.080
went snowboarding, skiing, you know, winter activities. Sure, my wife's

4
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:18.879
family went to Vermont, had a
lovely time. Okay, I hadn't snowboarded

5
00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:24.480
in eleven years, and mind you, I had only snowboarded once prior to

6
00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:28.600
that. So in my entire lifetime
leading up to this past weekend, I

7
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:33.320
had snowboarded once. Had you skied
before? No? Okay, So I

8
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:37.439
told you going into this weekend knowing
that you were pretty inexperienced, you're better

9
00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:41.359
off just picking up a set of
skis. So went over to the mountain

10
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:44.880
snow in Vermont. If you've ever
heard of it, Oh mount snow.

11
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:49.039
You're not just yelling snow right,
went up the lift, hopped off the

12
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:52.320
lift. I was with my wife's
cousins. She didn't do it, she's

13
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:56.000
just learning how to ski now.
And I didn't realize that I was with

14
00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:00.600
a bunch of fucking rocket powers that
were I've been shredding the nar with your

15
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:07.319
rodders on a mission, I will
say now, I haven't snowboarded in twenty

16
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.760
years. I snowboarded when I was
a teen. When I got to my

17
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:15.519
adult life, similar situation to you, I hadn't snowboarded forever. Was going

18
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.000
on a ski trip. I decided
to ski, knowing that it's easier to

19
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:22.560
pick up you're in, you have
a little bit more control at the beginning,

20
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.480
and also us having ice skating backgrounds, it helps tremendously when you're learning

21
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:30.079
to ski, so I figured you
would go that way. I picked up

22
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:33.200
skiing pretty quickly. Love skiing.
Now back to me, I was a

23
00:01:33.239 --> 00:01:37.439
regular squid, pretty much torking my
way down the mountain, you know,

24
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:42.239
on my heels. Just took me
a very long time to get down,

25
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.480
and after my first run, I'm
like, I'm gonna take a couple hours

26
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:49.040
off. Sure, I'm gonna,
you know, mentally get back into it.

27
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:52.239
And then at the end of the
day I went back up one more

28
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:57.079
time and pretty much by myself because
they had all moved on to fucking blue

29
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:01.560
trails, Black trails, Olympic trails, and I'm just by myself, just

30
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:07.519
slowly going down the hill finding paths
that are completely flat, so I have

31
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.719
to take the board off my feet
and walk getting stuck in ditches. That's

32
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:14.639
the other downside of snowboarding. You
don't have the poles to push yourself.

33
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:16.680
And at one point I was just
laying there on my back staring at the

34
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:21.840
sky, going I wonder if one
of the fucking ski patrollers will pick me

35
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:25.159
up next time you go. If
there's a next time ski, you won't

36
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:30.800
be as bad as you are at
snowboarding number two. I don't know,

37
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:34.879
Like, why did you take the
lessons with Dana? You just thought you

38
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:38.039
were. I went down the bunny
hill absolutely fine, Okay, it was

39
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:40.680
just when I got on the actual
mount. No, It's a lot like

40
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:46.360
you know how when I go golf, I'm fine interest wise for like six

41
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:50.000
or seven holes, and then I'm
fucking bored. After I go down one

42
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:52.560
of the hills. I'm like,
I think I've already done this. Uh

43
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:54.080
see, I get I get like
a need for speed type of thing.

44
00:02:54.479 --> 00:03:00.400
Where I'm at now in my ski
evolution is I am not used to fresh

45
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.599
pole. So if it's snowing a
lot when you go, are you an

46
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:09.280
expert pow your skis or your snowboard
dig in two three four inches and it's

47
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:14.120
much harder than the stuff that's been
groomed, and you're kind of on top

48
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.879
of So the last time I went, it was fresh fresh gnar, you

49
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:22.039
know, and my legs are on
fire and flago. As some people say,

50
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:24.120
I'm the exact opposite. I hated
speed. As soon as I picked

51
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:27.879
up any speed, I just fell
down. I just I was like,

52
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.879
I'm just gonna fall in my ass. I'll skip a couple of steps and

53
00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:32.960
then I'll pop back up, make
an ass go wide. I don't want

54
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:38.879
to get on my toes and fall. So I think we found out you

55
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:42.800
should snowboard. I ate at least
seven times. You can get hurt more

56
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:45.879
snowboarding too, because you fall on
your wrists. I did a very good

57
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:47.199
job because you told me ahead of
time, don't fall on your wrists.

58
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:51.680
So what I did is anytime that
I was falling forward, I put my

59
00:03:51.800 --> 00:04:10.159
arms out in fucking Superman one good
three, Yeah, job three. King

60
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:21.800
of Queen Meryl Street Entertainment, I'm
go and Dom Matt and we are the

61
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:28.079
Mac and Goo program. We bring
you friendship and an episode that no one

62
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:31.199
really wants. I'll tell you you're
talking about getting injured while skiing, snowboarding.

63
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:35.560
This show I think brought me more
pain than any ski or snowboarding experience

64
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:41.600
my last weekend. Nope, I'd
rather watch Echo again. Yeah. Today

65
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:46.439
we are finally finally getting to Jess
Jones season three to I'm just not just

66
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:50.839
getting there, We're getting the Echo. Echo came out on January ninth on

67
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:55.639
Disney Plus. All five episodes came
out at once. I think it was

68
00:04:55.720 --> 00:05:00.360
five if I recall correctly. This
is the tenth show slash series in the

69
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:05.839
MCU and the forty third MCU property
overall. We're so deep in now I'm

70
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.399
not gonna just start including the Netflix
stuff and all that other stuff they are

71
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.399
technically, let me ask you now. So my big question out of this

72
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.319
is because they called this a spotlight
and they made a big point of saying

73
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:21.439
you don't need to watch any of
the other MCU stuff to watch this,

74
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:26.399
and vice versa. But this is
a part of the universe, because that

75
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:29.560
makes that kind of confusing. Oh, it's definitely a part of it.

76
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.519
They're just doing that that way.
It's it's sort of a one off,

77
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.560
but it's still in the universe,
I know. But no effect on anything.

78
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:39.759
No, it has a huge effect
on stuff. Well, yes,

79
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:43.879
we'll talk about that. You know
it. It has a huge effect on

80
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:46.879
that. And by the way,
this is gonna be spoiler folks, but

81
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:51.279
so canonically, yes it is here. Do you have to watch it?

82
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:56.040
No, don't worry about it.
No. No, But the next time

83
00:05:56.040 --> 00:05:58.160
that you watch something, you say, wait a second, how did this

84
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.959
happen? I know, I know. That's honestly, like the biggest thing

85
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:03.759
that's bothering me from this. It
has nothing to do with Echo or the

86
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.160
character. It's the character of Kingpin
and where we end up with. No,

87
00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:11.680
so don't call it a spotlight.
Don't just say it's a part of

88
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:14.519
the MCU if you want it,
like if you wanted it to be its

89
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:17.079
own thing, like Werewolf by Night
what you're saying, then don't have it

90
00:06:17.079 --> 00:06:20.279
be consequential to the rest of the
story. I get what you're saying,

91
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:25.800
and you're right. So this is
the first spotlight production I will tactically.

92
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.160
Was Werewolf also spotlight or was it
called something else? I don't know.

93
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.000
I'm pretty sure this is, but
you could rope that in with this.

94
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.519
It's sort of sort of of the
same ILK. Yeah, because the Guardian's

95
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:42.439
Christmas was a part of Cannon because
they did make Mantis his sister and they

96
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:44.920
used that in the movie. Well, this is part of Cannon. I

97
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:46.759
know, I'm aware of that,
but they went out of their way to

98
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.839
be like, you don't have to
watch the other stuff. Yeah. Yeah,

99
00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:53.279
So I wonder how many more of
the things they'll do like this,

100
00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:57.079
because this obviously didn't do well and
I think they're doing too much as it

101
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:01.240
is, so they should probably halt
with the spotlight Stuffku Echo is a TVM

102
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:08.480
action adventure in crime. There's not
much action and adventure and there's a crime.

103
00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:12.480
There's two actions, two actions to
crimes. This had two hundred and

104
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.720
eight minutes. That's three hours,
almost three and a half hours of content.

105
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.720
On Rotten Tomatoes, I believe again
once once again. Five episodes,

106
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:24.639
a very awkward five episodes. On
Rotten Tomatoes, it says seventy percent from

107
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:28.519
the critics, sixty one percent from
the audience. Who that is the third

108
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:32.959
worst audience score of the ten Marvel
series, or I should say seasons of

109
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:38.040
television, because there was two seasons
of Loki. On Metacritic, gu a

110
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:42.120
sixty two, which is the worst
critics score on Metacritic out of the ten,

111
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:46.879
although just below Secret Invasion. But
sixty two is actually not bad at

112
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:51.680
all. So the critics have been
generally okay with everything Marvel is doing.

113
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:57.399
The audience not so much lately.
And I don't know, like sixty one

114
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:01.439
percent to me sounds super high because
I have not heard one person say they

115
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:05.759
liked the show. There were something
that thought it was fine. I haven't

116
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:09.000
found anyone that liked the show.
Yeah, so you mentioned the three hour

117
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:13.240
and thirty minute runtime. Are you
ready for this? I'm ready to straddle

118
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.560
the fence. Let's do it.
It is both its strength and its weakness.

119
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.399
I would say the strength of this
show, and we'll get to it

120
00:08:20.439 --> 00:08:22.360
when we do the Gauntlet, is
that it came out all at once,

121
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:26.759
so I could no, No,
that is a plus. I wouldn't say

122
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:31.360
that. So the show at least
tries to flesh out the character like it

123
00:08:31.440 --> 00:08:37.480
takes time to way in the family
dive a little bit deeper. So I'm

124
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:41.360
gonna give it credit for that.
But what they gave us was it necessarily

125
00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:45.879
entertaining. No, not at all. And they also there are a couple

126
00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:48.960
paths they go down that lead absolutely
nowhere, and you're like, well,

127
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:52.200
if you're gonna do three and a
half hours or something, you might as

128
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:56.080
well do the final half hour or
another forty five minutes and like really flesh

129
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.519
out the one or two characters that
seemed like they were gonna be meaningful from

130
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.559
the first step episode, you know. Yeah, and even the one off

131
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:05.240
scenes in this and they would usually
open each episode with a one off scene,

132
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:11.320
usually having to do with her Native
American heritage background, and those are

133
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:15.799
the most interesting things in the episode, and they really didn't have anything to

134
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:18.240
do with the rest of the story. I pretty much hated every flashback they

135
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.600
did, and I'm trying why they
were doing it. Yeah, and I

136
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:28.159
suppose they did them well, they
did not help the series whatsoever. KU.

137
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:31.840
This series was directed by Sidney Freeland. She did four of the episodes.

138
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.000
Again, I don't remember if it
was five or six. That's how

139
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.399
this show was. No one got
it created by title, which I think

140
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:41.840
is the first series to have that. There's usually a created by someone takes

141
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:45.480
credit for it, so apparently no
one wanted to take credit for this synopsis.

142
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.799
Maya Lopez must face her past,
reconnect with her native American roots and

143
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.559
embrace the meaning of family and community
if she ever hopes to move forward.

144
00:09:52.799 --> 00:09:58.200
Now, before you go, I'll
say two things here. We have no

145
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:03.279
investment at all in my and the
character of Echo. She pops up in

146
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.399
Hawkeye for what three episodes, whatever
it is. She's a decent character.

147
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:11.840
You don't mind her. There's not
one person that saw her, and Hawkeye

148
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:15.720
was like, she needs her own
shit. But I was curious what her

149
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:20.919
connection to Kingpin was. Sure,
and it kind of like I kind of

150
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.519
liked that flashback of him kicking that
guy's ass, but we've seen a bunch

151
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:28.159
of that with Kingpin. Yeah.
And the second part here, the embrace

152
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:31.519
the meaning of family and community if
she ever hopes to move forward. This

153
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:37.879
felt like the reason this series got
made was so that they could throw a

154
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:41.320
little lasso into the Native American realm
and be like, Okay, we want

155
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:43.679
to do this represent people that aren't
normally represented, which I get and I

156
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:48.120
totally understand. And like I said, they did that relatively well. However,

157
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:54.159
that stuff just there's a disconnect between
that and the character, Like it

158
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:58.080
doesn't play up at all, It
doesn't round out Mile whatsoever. Yeah,

159
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:03.039
I agree, This show stars a
Loqua Cox as Miya Lopez Echo, and

160
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.639
again kudos to her for being deaf, and she's an amputee, so you

161
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.440
know she gets her flowers there.
And I don't think like I don't necessarily

162
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:13.960
have an issue with her at all, and her in the way she acts

163
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:18.840
the character just everything else around it. Chaskey Spencer as Henry black Crow Lopez.

164
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.159
I believe that was her uncle.
I want to say, uh tantu

165
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.039
Cardinal is Chula. That was the
grandfather type figure. Graham Green as Scully.

166
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:28.039
I don't even remember who fuck that
was. That might have been the

167
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:31.480
cousin, the guy cousn with the
pickup. Defrey Jacobs is Bonnie. She

168
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:37.000
was like the paramedic firefighter character,
Cody lightning his biscuits. No biscuits was

169
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:39.480
the U? Was the pickup biscuits
was? Yes? And then we have

170
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:46.480
Vincent Dinofrio as Kingpin. The only
thing I'll say here again is I don't

171
00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:52.120
know if I disliked any of the
performances. Just everything that was on screen

172
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:56.759
was so uninteresting. It had no
meaning and there's no ramifications like it just

173
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:01.799
it felt half asked is the word. It felt just like a total misstep,

174
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:05.519
total misfire on Marvel's part. So, like you think the Marvel stuff

175
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:09.240
was half fast, do you think
the mcu stuff was half fast in this?

176
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:15.320
But I also don't think what they
give us makes Maya a better character,

177
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.200
both the Native American side and the
Kinkking stuff. I'm not rooting for

178
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:22.679
Maya any more than I was before
the show. I don't think it helps

179
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:24.919
your character at all. In fact, I'm more confused as to what her

180
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.279
character can do. I'm just confused
as to how this plays into anything.

181
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:33.879
Yeah, so let me jump down
to the second here, So her character

182
00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:37.320
of Echo can do different stuff in
the comics than what she ends up doing

183
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:41.440
on screen here, And this is
the premise of her character. For those

184
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.279
of you that didn't quite pick up
on it maybe two months ago, maybe

185
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.519
maybe you're rounding in the three four
years ago when this thing came out.

186
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:52.600
The character of Chafa is the first
Choctaw. That's the ancestor we see in

187
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.600
the opening minutes of the series,
the first three four minutes of the seriesak

188
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.759
Loak is the lacrosse player. You
know, we saw her in an extended

189
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:03.679
are we spoiling right now? Yeah? He can spoil. Okay, So

190
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.679
before we start spoiling, do you
recommend this to people? No? God,

191
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:11.960
no, I don't either, absolutely
not. Yeah uh. And this

192
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:16.360
Lowa character is like the fierce competitor, Chafa is like the powerful one.

193
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:20.639
Tucklo is the woman we see fighting
criminals with her father in that eighteen hundreds

194
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.120
flashback, which like we sort of
just glossed over. She never even gets

195
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:30.200
mentioned again until like the final five
minutes of the series. She's that protector

196
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:33.879
of life so called. And then
Taloa is Echo's mother and she has this

197
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:37.960
like sort of healing gift. So
the idea is Maya is supposed to be

198
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:43.240
an echo of these four characters.
That's how they that's their spin on Echo

199
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:46.159
here, which is much different than
what she is in the comic book.

200
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.759
So I'm sure the compook people that
love Echo aren't happy about that. I'm

201
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:56.840
okay with the premise of that.
But when we finally see Echo like power

202
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:01.039
up and use some sort of power, it's the end of the series.

203
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:05.000
It makes no sense and you have
no idea what she's doing. You have

204
00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:09.120
no clue what's going on, and
it's not explained well at all at all,

205
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.480
And they also for some reason.
And I look, this is maybe

206
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:18.759
some of the best stuff from the
Netflix shows is Kingpins flashbacks. But I

207
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:20.720
didn't need to go back there.
Again, No, we didn't need to

208
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:24.600
rehash Kingpin stuff, or at the
very least, if we're gonna do that,

209
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.720
make it worth something in the future, which they don't in this series.

210
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:31.080
And good to your point is this
part of the MCU. This is

211
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.000
set five months after the events of
Hawkey. At the conclusion of Hawkey,

212
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:41.120
we shoot. We see Maya shoot
Kingpin in the face, presumably, and

213
00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:43.440
then it cuts to Black. We
have no idea what happens there. And

214
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:48.720
at the beginning of the series,
she's being pursued by Fisk in his ding

215
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:50.600
Back cronies. So like, all
right, he survives. He now has

216
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:56.240
an eye patch on, but like
halfway in, like episode three, he

217
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:58.480
just takes the eye patch off and
his eye is totally fine. It is

218
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:03.279
milky, barely a scar. Yeah, it's a little milky. Maybe has

219
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:07.240
some cataracts, but there's no lasting
effects from being shot. He has the

220
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.200
contact in from Limp biscuits. Yeah, like he didn't lose an eye.

221
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:15.720
There's no real lasting effect from it. I don't know how you could explain

222
00:15:15.759 --> 00:15:20.639
that because king Pin isn't really enhanced. You know, he's sort of pseudo

223
00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:24.600
French. He's he's bigger than life's
wrong, he doesn't have a power,

224
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.879
and he's definitely is not fucking bulletproof. So that like that stuck in my

225
00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:31.840
craw for longer than it should have. Like a week after watching this,

226
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.879
I'm like, how the fuck does
he get shot in the face not only

227
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.440
survive but have no lasting scar from
it? But also, so now this

228
00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:43.440
Spotlight show. If you didn't watch
this thinking that, like, oh,

229
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:46.600
this is something that I don't need
to watch, he pops up in a

230
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:50.840
Spider Man or Daredevil show and he's
absolutely fine. Right, It's gonna be

231
00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:54.399
real confusing because she healed him,
she healed his mind, and his eye

232
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.159
is fine. Now yeah, I
guess yeah, for lack of a better

233
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:02.559
term, she's sort of made him
open his eyes to what he could see.

234
00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:07.200
She gave him a lasik. And
then if you didn't watch this series,

235
00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:10.519
he is gonna pop up again in
whatever it is, and the last

236
00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:12.279
thing memory you'll have is that he
got shot in the face at the end

237
00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.320
of Hawkeye, and now he's just
cool. But to be honest with you,

238
00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:18.759
that's a better explanation than what this
series gives you. I have now

239
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:22.759
seen him in two mcu properties,
and I don't think he's been good in

240
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:26.960
either. I thought he was the
exact same character in Hawkeye as he was

241
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:30.559
in Daredevil. But again, he
was in half of an episode of Dared

242
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.639
of uh Hawk. Again, I
am much lower on Daredevil and him in

243
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.320
general, So it doesn't bother me
that he's not this fucking stand up character.

244
00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:41.639
Well, no, and Daredevil he's
a big, physically imposing guy.

245
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:47.639
Thought he was the exact same He
gets beaten by a rookie Hawkey and then

246
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:49.639
Maya who shoot him in the face
as the man. You always say that

247
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:55.720
what you always talk about, how
how cool Hawkey is not Hailey Steinfeld Hawkey.

248
00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:57.480
Oh she's even cooler. No,
she's definitely cool. I never said,

249
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:02.320
look, cool is not a part
of beating a kingpin. I don't

250
00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:04.759
know. I don't know cool factor. You ever consider that cool clip?

251
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:08.079
Is that one of our new things? The cool whip? Yeah? You

252
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:11.440
want to go through the gautlet here? I guess fun factor, Yes,

253
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:15.079
it's devoid of fun. There's there's
a scene that I like. There's one

254
00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:18.880
scene out of the full three and
a half hours that I liked. That's

255
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.200
episode three. Yep. I like
the idea of that. The editing in

256
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:26.079
it is fucking terrible, fair enough, not gonna disagree with it. There

257
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:30.240
is there is one idea of the
scene. More than anything. There is

258
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:34.839
one cut where they cut from one
talking about the laser tag roller ring scene.

259
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:38.039
They cut from that to the exact
same shot. Yeah, not great.

260
00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:42.079
That looks fucking stupid. The first
episode, I actually liked that one

261
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:48.039
better when Daredevil pops up for thirty
five thirty seven seconds because of that,

262
00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:52.400
that's because you thought it was me
six minutes. No, I always consider

263
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:56.640
thirty seconds to be six minutes,
So I'm fine with that. Satisfactor.

264
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:03.599
No, like even if so hold
up, this is their first TVMA,

265
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:07.079
and even that feels kind of half
assed too. Yeah, good point about

266
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:10.240
that. I didn't even know that. That's a nice little fun fact right

267
00:18:10.279 --> 00:18:14.519
there. I don't think there's anything
satisfying in this. In fact, you

268
00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:17.680
know, piggybacking off of what we
were just talking about, the fact that

269
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.680
Daredevil was teased to being here in
this six minute epic fight and it ends

270
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:25.039
up being one minute and like thirty
seconds of it's less than that. No,

271
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:27.279
I actually I took it down.
Oh I got stats coming up here,

272
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:33.279
go ahead. That actually made the
satisfactor go negative because we expected this

273
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:37.319
and it was like way down here, So it was not satisfying whatsoever.

274
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:44.960
Borrominer, Yes, I was intrigued
until the end of the first episode.

275
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:49.599
They kind of wrote me back in
during the third episode, but then all

276
00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:53.960
the Kingpin stuff just completely lost me. Three hours and twenty eight minutes.

277
00:18:55.039 --> 00:18:59.559
I would say I was bored for
three hours and fifteen minutes Halloween. Will

278
00:18:59.599 --> 00:19:03.799
this win over time? And the
answer is yes, yeah. And they're

279
00:19:04.119 --> 00:19:07.039
very lucky that I binged it,
because if this was a weekly release,

280
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:11.400
I never would have finished it,
never would have made it through episode two

281
00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:17.440
Aquator? Is this better or worse
than twenty seventeen's Aquaman at six? It's

282
00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:19.720
not nearly as good in fact,
which, by the way, I'm super

283
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:26.440
excited that tomorrow we get to watch
Aquaman two finally, finally, so look

284
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:27.720
out for that in the next couple
of weeks. Time for the Gooby Vault.

285
00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:30.880
I know, next couple weeks we'll
do a full episode on it.

286
00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:34.920
We'll see if we'll see if it
floats. Right, Pants ten City Excite

287
00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:40.839
bike Mania? What got you going
again? I thought the roller rank laser

288
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:44.200
tag fight was cool. That's it. That's all I had. That's the

289
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:45.960
only thing I thought was cool in
the whole series. I did like the

290
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:49.359
hand to hand stuff with Daredevil,
but you hate the length of it.

291
00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:56.200
And then the finale of this was
terrible, Like what's the opposite of a

292
00:19:56.240 --> 00:20:04.799
Pants ten? It's a great question. I can retract my penis, God

293
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:08.640
Max credit Union. Who you're giving
credit to? I guess to Figy or

294
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:11.880
whoever it was that decided to release
this all. That was all it was

295
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:17.039
because I think a majority of people
that watched the show would not have finished

296
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:19.559
it if it was week to week. Yeah. It reminds me of when

297
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:23.359
they put out WandaVision and they said, let's put the first three episodes out

298
00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:26.240
at once, or the first two
episodes, Like, let's bunch up a

299
00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:30.440
couple episodes because if we just put
out one, we might lose some people.

300
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:38.279
Yep, hot Dog Hot dug for
those of you tarty to the Mac

301
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:44.359
and Goo party, we rate everything
on a forty hot dog Bassis and Mac.

302
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:48.759
I saw this roughly a month ago. The stuff that people liked in

303
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:52.079
it, I'm the opposite. I
think different than most people. I didn't

304
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:55.920
really care for that episode three fight
scene. I thought some of it was

305
00:20:55.960 --> 00:21:00.240
cool. I thought that the show
should have went harder into the TVMA to

306
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:03.160
the R rated stuff, and they
only gave us two really good fights in

307
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:07.559
this. The stuff with her and
Kingpin, I thought sucked. I have

308
00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:11.880
not liked Vincentinafrio's Kingpin in this,
or whoever's directing him, whoever's writing him.

309
00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:15.799
I have not liked him in this
compared to Daredevil, which I feel

310
00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:18.640
the same way about him and Hawkeye
as well. I thought that last episode

311
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:22.319
of Hawkeye was a little bit of
a letdown, but a lot of the

312
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:26.680
MCU shows have kind of had a
tough time on their final episodes. Alecqua

313
00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:30.799
Cox is pretty good in this.
I will give her credit with that.

314
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:34.039
I mean, she does what they
ask her to do. The power set

315
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:40.559
isn't great. I do like some
of the flashbacks, but overall, there's

316
00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:44.759
nothing really gripping here. There's nothing
holding me in. And if it was

317
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:48.200
a week two week show and we
weren't doing this, I don't know if

318
00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:52.880
I would have finished it. What
do you got for dog score? I

319
00:21:52.920 --> 00:22:00.680
don't know. To your point though, yeah, as well as she acts

320
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:03.440
it, because she's kind of a
bad guy. Yeah, she's a really

321
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:07.640
hard character to root for, Like
you don't care what happens to her.

322
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:08.440
Oh, I know, if she
died in this, I'd be cool with

323
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:12.240
that. Yeah, Like it wouldn't
have mattered at all. She feels inconsequential

324
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:18.200
to the story. That's a very
good This show is called Echo. She

325
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:23.000
feels inconsequential to the show Echo.
It's a great point. I don't know.

326
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.720
Twenty two hot dogs. All right, all right, little Emmitt Smith

327
00:22:26.759 --> 00:22:30.000
action for you go. I've got
this at twenty and I don't feel good

328
00:22:30.039 --> 00:22:33.039
about it. I put this.
I made this score probably three weeks a

329
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:37.359
month ago. That's probably generous.
If it was released weekly and I did

330
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:38.839
finish it, it might be a
ten to eight. I don't know.

331
00:22:40.160 --> 00:22:42.480
To me, it's the worst Marvel
series by a lot, like by a

332
00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:45.799
good margin, and it's in the
To me, it's in the conversation for

333
00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:49.440
the worst thing they've done out of
the forty three mcu entries. It's it's

334
00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:52.279
real bad and let me run through
the shows for you right here, just

335
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:56.279
to give you a little bit of
a reminder. In the bottom. So

336
00:22:56.359 --> 00:22:59.640
I have a full bottom tier here
actually echoes, and it's in a tier

337
00:22:59.680 --> 00:23:04.279
of its elf. Then I have
gum, and then I have a tier

338
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:10.240
I don't get it. Four shows
that aren't good. Didn't hate them.

339
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:14.279
I got Falcon and Winter Soldier,
Moonnight, Secret Invasion in Seahok, take

340
00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:15.599
them or leave them, I don't
care if you liked them or hated those.

341
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:18.440
To me, those are all roughly
in the same tier. And then

342
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:23.200
I have the tier of good things
not great Loki season two, WandaVision,

343
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.839
Miss Marvel and Hawkeye. Hawkey,
I think is clearly at the top of

344
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.640
that tier. I like that more
than the other three, but I believe

345
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:33.880
it belongs in that tier. And
then at the very top and a tier

346
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:36.359
of itself, I have Loki Season
one. To me, that's head and

347
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:40.200
shoulders, the best thing they've done
out of these ten seasons of television.

348
00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:44.440
I would have it at the bottom. But if you wanted to tell me

349
00:23:44.559 --> 00:23:48.000
Secret Invasion is worse, I would
probably accept that. I will say at

350
00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:52.920
the end of the first episode of
Secret Invasion, I was at least intrigued.

351
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:56.440
Secret Invasion, if not for nothing
was intriguing for the full run.

352
00:23:56.039 --> 00:24:00.480
I don't full run. I think
the ending was not good. The ending

353
00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:03.960
sucked, and it definitely lost me
along the way. But I was at

354
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:08.039
a very high intrigue after one episode
to me that never happened to me in

355
00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:11.960
Moon Night had a worse intrigue and
a worse ending. So Secret Evasion is

356
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:15.720
above Moonnight and Moon Night's above feudal. Moon Night might have one of the

357
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:22.359
best MCU episodes, though maybe when
he killed his brother that was an accident,

358
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:26.240
but still and his mom, Oh, it was a good episode,

359
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:30.799
was a really good episode. All
right, Let's get into the notes we

360
00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:33.640
have that are quote unquote spoilers,
even though we've been been spoking for a

361
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.680
while for the whole thing. To
your point, and again, I'm not

362
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:41.920
the biggest fist guy in the world. Fisk just doesn't feel like the Fisk

363
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:45.839
he's supposed to feel like. He's
not intimidating whatsoever. He doesn't feel bigger

364
00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:49.519
than life. And that's the big
thing with with Wilson Fist. To me,

365
00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:52.680
he did feel like that Hawkeye tea. He didn't he obviously was that

366
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:56.640
character in Daredevil. He is nothing
like that in this show. Yeah,

367
00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:02.440
if they want him to be a
street level he needs to be bigger than

368
00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:07.680
life and feel like he is this
super powered human on the streets. He

369
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:11.680
can't just be another man. Well
that, I feel like they're using him

370
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:15.519
not losing an eyeball as that instead
of him like doing something cool or acting

371
00:25:15.559 --> 00:25:21.839
cool, They're using the the lack
of damage to him as that like sort

372
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:25.319
of intimidation. F I don't want
him to be souped up, but I

373
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:29.880
want him to be smarter than everybody
else. I want him to be stronger

374
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:33.599
as a human than most people.
I want him to seem indestructible. But

375
00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:37.200
I do not like none of this
makes me feel that way. To me,

376
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:44.920
the best part of Punisher and Daredevil's
Netflix series is like the people were

377
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:48.920
wearing the blows right where they win
or lose a fight, you could see

378
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:53.200
the damage on them, and you
can have Fisk win alls fights, but

379
00:25:53.319 --> 00:25:57.000
don't let him walk away unscathe,
Like that's just stupid. But I mean

380
00:25:57.039 --> 00:26:00.400
like at the end of that Daredevil
beats the shit out of him, and

381
00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:03.119
all he gets out of it is
just putting him in jail, right,

382
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:08.000
and also Daredevil, you had the
thirteen episodes, and it's a twelve episode

383
00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:15.200
lead up of everyone feeling completely hopeless
against this fucking character. No one here

384
00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:21.160
has felt hopeless. No, this
is this If you're telling me Daredevil now

385
00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:26.200
counts in the MCU, this undermines
whatever they built up for Wilson Fisk because

386
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:29.680
he's not that character at all in
this show. Go speaking of Daredevil.

387
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:33.680
Uh, the fight ends up being
just over a minute, all right,

388
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:36.559
Yeah, the fight ends up being
just over a minute, and he's in

389
00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:38.960
the series in that first episode for
a total of minute and forty seconds.

390
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:42.799
He shows up at twenty three to
fifteen of the first episode, fights echo

391
00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:48.000
twenty two seconds later, and then
a minute in, eighteen seconds later,

392
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:52.160
he's off the screen. Sounds like
a lossime marketed as a six minute Daredevil

393
00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:56.640
an echo fight scene marketed is that
teases that six minutes. He wasn't even

394
00:26:56.680 --> 00:27:00.079
on the screen for six minutes.
Hacktically, Fight for Sick is that fight

395
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:07.519
scene six minutes though the full minute
in eighteen seconds with him The fight before

396
00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:10.880
he jumps in it might be thirty
seconds, and then it ends when he

397
00:27:10.960 --> 00:27:12.559
leaves, so the full fight scene
might be two and a half minutes.

398
00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:18.000
You just don't know length. That
was like, and again, as a

399
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:22.599
non Daredevil guy, that was pretty
fucking annoying because that's like, all right,

400
00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:26.200
at least at least if it's gonna
be Daredevil level again brutality, I'm

401
00:27:26.200 --> 00:27:29.079
like, all right, I can, I can get on board this.

402
00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:30.359
But it didn't even give us that. It was so stupid. What I

403
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:36.000
also hated it was the actor is
saying that like they didn't skip a beat

404
00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:38.599
with this show and the feeling that
they had when they were making their there's

405
00:27:38.599 --> 00:27:41.279
a lot of that too, which
that's not true, guys. It's a

406
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:45.799
puff piece, real fucking puff piece
here. Yeah, dude, I believe

407
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:51.279
in episode four, the end of
episode three, when Fisk kills his translator,

408
00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:56.480
he gives basically an Apple Vision pro
to Maya so now they can see

409
00:27:56.480 --> 00:28:00.160
what they're signing to each other or
the vice versa. That was the dumbest

410
00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:03.559
thing I've ever seen. That was
so fucking stupid. Again, that felt

411
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:07.480
like, Okay, we haven't had
Fisk be a badass enough, so we'll

412
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:11.880
have him to shoot the translator in
the head. Someone who's actually useful to

413
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:14.720
him because now he's got Apple vision
pro well, no, because she knew

414
00:28:14.720 --> 00:28:21.480
all their secrets. That reminds me
of in Man Quantumnia. They go into

415
00:28:21.559 --> 00:28:25.440
the Quantum realm and they all drink
juice and then suddenly they can all speak

416
00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:27.839
the same language. Right, I'm
better with that. I'm better with that

417
00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:32.559
than the fucking so you wish that
he gave Echo some juice and then suddenly

418
00:28:32.599 --> 00:28:36.559
she could hear and speak. Works
better for me than the fucking eye camera.

419
00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:40.799
I just I hated it. I
hated it. We get this tease

420
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:45.160
and the I believe it was in
the first episode of Maya's Cousin. She

421
00:28:45.359 --> 00:28:48.200
is like longingly staring at her,
stalking her almost yeah yeah, and then

422
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:53.799
she literally means nothing the whole series, but then pops up in the climax

423
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:56.880
in the finale, like helping her
out with the powers. Now, I'm

424
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:02.119
like, what the fuck is this? What did we cut here or did

425
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:07.359
we just not do anything with this
character? Even Kingpin's cronies, what do

426
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:14.920
they actually add to this? Nothing, nothing was added from anyone, Like

427
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:19.559
it's all it's all just generic crap. Yeah, it's bad, It's really

428
00:29:19.559 --> 00:29:25.119
bad. Like I That's why.
Like when I say it's twenty out of

429
00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:27.599
forty fifty percent, I don't even
feel like it is. I feel like

430
00:29:27.640 --> 00:29:30.960
it should be fucking twenty five percent. So ten hot dies at it.

431
00:29:32.000 --> 00:29:36.079
But at the same time, I
won't pretend. Like when I finished watching

432
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:37.920
all five episodes, I was upset
because it was a breeze. I was

433
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:40.680
in and out. I was like, you know what, fucking I never

434
00:29:40.680 --> 00:29:42.680
thought this was gonna be good.
It wasn't good. But then when I

435
00:29:42.680 --> 00:29:45.359
started looking stuff up type and stuff
out, I got I got more mad

436
00:29:45.359 --> 00:29:48.799
at Oh. Credit for the signing
too, for the sign language. That

437
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:52.160
was cool. Yeah, And again, like I said, they apparently do

438
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:55.799
justice to some Native American heritage here, which is fine. You know,

439
00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:59.599
that's dandy. I'm glad you're doing
that, but don't do it like in

440
00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:03.240
lou of a good story or storytelling. It just like it didn't hit for

441
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:07.480
me. It just did not hit
at all, Like, why the fuck

442
00:30:07.519 --> 00:30:11.359
did we watch a Native American woman
play lacrosse for fifteen minutes? That was

443
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:17.680
maybe the worst scene in the MCU. That was horrible. I can maybe

444
00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:19.240
think of something worse. Give me
some time, all right, I'll yeah,

445
00:30:19.319 --> 00:30:22.480
we'll talk about it next week.
I'll give you a week to think

446
00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:26.160
about that. Thank you watching Watching
a Native American woman and play lacrosse in

447
00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:29.880
like the sixteen hundreds was the worst
fucking thing the MCU has done. What

448
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.880
are you talking about? She used
that skill when she won the Olympics.

449
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:38.480
Oh god, are you dying?
Yeah, I'm going on three weeks now.

450
00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:41.119
It's not good. Good. I
know you get the black lung pop.

451
00:30:44.240 --> 00:30:48.000
Uh. This this show sucks good. The show was terrible. The

452
00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:51.559
good news is like, it's not
Madam Web level, but I'll be honest

453
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:53.640
with you, like this is the
Madam Web of the MCU. Maybe now,

454
00:30:53.920 --> 00:30:59.160
well, this at least paid attention
to details and like put effort into

455
00:30:59.240 --> 00:31:02.559
little things. They put effort in
I'll give Madam Webb didn't put effort into

456
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:06.079
anything, fair enough. That's that's
a fair point to be made, I'll

457
00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:07.759
give you. But also, I
saw this a month ago and I have

458
00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:11.519
forgotten most of it. Yeah,
I saw it seven weeks ago and it's

459
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.200
still it's still a thorn in my
side. You remember more than I did.

460
00:31:15.359 --> 00:31:18.880
I remember like some of the big
standout things and just my absolute hatred

461
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:22.880
for how they use Fisk. Yeah, it's just so I don't know,

462
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:26.279
Like you know, obviously, Marvel
has been slowly drawing back and with gang

463
00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:30.319
stuff, they're going to have to
make changes. Anyways, I don't know

464
00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:33.839
if we get another spotlight thing,
like, there's no reason. I don't

465
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:37.519
understand the point of the spotlight thing. If it's just well, yeah,

466
00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:41.039
if it's something that is outside of
the universe and you just want to tell

467
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:44.200
a little story and call it a
spotlight, that's cool. Well I think

468
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:47.400
it is. If it's your cannon
and it's another show, then it's like

469
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:51.480
just a show technically cannon. But
the only consequential thing that happens is Fisk

470
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:53.640
doesn't lose his high. That's it. Yeah, so when you watch another

471
00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:56.559
show and you're like, why the
fuck does he eyes? But that's why

472
00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:59.880
they're saying, like you don't need
to watch other stuff, and it says

473
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:02.240
really affect other stuff, Like I
thought he might have been dead. No,

474
00:32:02.400 --> 00:32:06.880
he's completely fine now, it's very
fine, doing the best he's ever

475
00:32:06.920 --> 00:32:08.359
been. So twenty two is too
high for me. I'm probably lower.

476
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:12.519
Yeah, twenty two high as well. But so do you have a do

477
00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:15.640
you have a show worse than would
you would. Was this your worst MCU

478
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:19.599
show? I think on the consistency, yes, but I think Secret Invasion.

479
00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:23.400
Secret Invasion just really fucking misses.
Like it's a round episode. This

480
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:29.839
is not considering expectations with Secret Invasion
that it's a definitive miss. But the

481
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:32.079
quality of that show is much higher
than this. It's just the finale.

482
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:36.640
It was so bad that it brings
everything else down. I like the attention

483
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:39.480
to detail of certain things in this, I just didn't find it that entertaining.

484
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:43.759
Yeah, there's no entertaining thing,
but they didn't give a lot of

485
00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:46.160
attention to detail when it comes to
Secret Invasion, when it comes to some

486
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:50.240
character traits. Yeah, no,
you're right about that. I just I'm

487
00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:52.880
saying, like as much of a
miss as Secret Invasion was, And you

488
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:55.599
know, let me put it this
way. Maybe I'll frame it better this

489
00:32:55.680 --> 00:32:59.880
way, and this will make some
people at home understanding, maybe you'll buy

490
00:32:59.920 --> 00:33:04.079
it. I would rather them take
the swing and miss on Secret Invasion than

491
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:07.160
them give us something like this ten
times out of ten. I think this

492
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:08.880
was more of a swing and miss. And this is not even a swing

493
00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:12.559
and miss. This is just a
wild pitch. Yeah, but they they

494
00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:15.519
took a bigger chance on this than
Secret Invasion. They Oh, no,

495
00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:17.599
no, no, yes, they
did for sure, not because they told

496
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:22.200
us this was meaningful from the jump. They gave us all the stuff pre

497
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:24.039
this show, like, don't worry
too much about this show. It's like

498
00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:28.279
on the fringe. Secret Invasion was
supposed to be a big thing, but

499
00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:31.240
it ended up being nothing. Okay, that so let me free, let

500
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:34.799
me do another sports analogy. Let
me let me see if this hits for

501
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:37.920
you. They took three straight pitches
down the middle of the plate in Secret

502
00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:42.079
Invasion. Couldn't get a hit with
Secret Invasion, but at least they took

503
00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:46.160
the bat. This show stayed in
the dugout the whole series. What has

504
00:33:46.279 --> 00:33:52.759
been their most recent shows. It's
been Loki season two right before this Secret

505
00:33:52.960 --> 00:33:57.279
at least. Okay, so they
haven't been that far off with their shows.

506
00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.880
I think they just gotta trim the
fat, right, No, they

507
00:34:00.119 --> 00:34:06.319
they need to focus in on quality
over quantity, and I think everyone knows

508
00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:08.320
they know this. I think they're
gonna have to get back to that with

509
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:12.239
the King stuff, because now they're
like kind of racing to figure out what

510
00:34:12.239 --> 00:34:15.159
they're gonna do but at the very
least they bought some time just doing Deadpool

511
00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:19.199
this year. You know they have
time to figure stuff out. Are there

512
00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:22.360
any shows coming out this year?
That's a great question. I don't think

513
00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:24.480
so. I think when we looked
up Deadpool, this was the only Deadpool

514
00:34:24.519 --> 00:34:28.719
was the only Marvel thing coming out
this year besides Echo. And then next

515
00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:32.760
year we're getting three seasons of Armour
Wars. Yes, yep, that's January

516
00:34:32.920 --> 00:34:38.480
twenty four episodes seasons of Armour Wars. You know what's crazy is like if

517
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:43.480
you look up Gilligan's Island, there's
thirty five episodes in the first season.

518
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.159
Yeah, but in fucking nineteen sixty
five, goo, like people have nothing

519
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:52.800
else to watch? What if they
gave us a thirty five episode season of

520
00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:55.320
Armour Wars and Don Chino, where's
the fucking Bob Denver hat? You want

521
00:34:55.320 --> 00:34:58.920
a little fun fact about Gilligan's Island. I learned this when I was in

522
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:01.440
Hawaii. Eat The bay that I
stayed at, or just off of,

523
00:35:02.039 --> 00:35:06.639
is the bay they leave from in
Gilligan's Island. And if you notice in

524
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:09.480
the opening credits, the American flag
is at half mass is They film that

525
00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:15.119
the day that JFK died. Oh
yeah, they had spent all the money

526
00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:16.360
for that day, so they were
in Hawaii. They had to film it

527
00:35:16.440 --> 00:35:21.119
that day. So in the background
of the opening scene of Gilligan's Island,

528
00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:23.519
you see the flags at half mass. JFK number one. I'm gonna fucking

529
00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:29.239
clip that for social media. That's
gonna go Gangbusters number two. I already

530
00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:32.920
know this answer. But Ginger or
Marianne? Oh mary Anne? By a

531
00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:37.760
mile? You love Redheads though,
Oh but no, the brunette girl next

532
00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:40.800
door is always going to be my
number one. That the Redheads is just

533
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:45.840
like the flavor of the month.
What about uh missus months? Is that

534
00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:49.599
her name? I'll think Ginger over
her, the old lady, the old

535
00:35:49.679 --> 00:35:52.360
lady off of Ginger, but mary
Anne ten times out of ten, fucking

536
00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:55.440
professor, he must have been doing
something right. Well, I mean you

537
00:35:55.519 --> 00:35:59.599
had a lot of money. No
he didn't, uh Thurman, Oh that's

538
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:02.000
what I'm blanket on on the old
people name. But the professor can make

539
00:36:02.039 --> 00:36:06.840
a fucking telephone out of coconuts.
I don't know why I watched so many

540
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:07.760
episodes of that as a kid,
but it was on every Saturday. It

541
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:10.599
was a Nicke at night. It
was on Saturday mornings. Yeah, it

542
00:36:10.679 --> 00:36:15.280
was on constantly. Yeah. I
like when the Globetrotters got caught there.

543
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:17.639
I like when everyone got caught there. Remember that. Yeah, they went

544
00:36:17.679 --> 00:36:22.599
there. They played a basketball game
on the island. Oh yeah, how

545
00:36:22.639 --> 00:36:24.159
could they not get off the island? The winner got off the island.

546
00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:35.920
I think that's what happens. That
doesn't seem like a real thing. Let's

547
00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:42.039
get into Maxack and Mazak. Could
be anything. It could be a boat.

548
00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:45.960
And this week it is to tell
you that in two weeks we are

549
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:52.079
returning to Idle Hands, back with
that trivia and this month March thirteenth,

550
00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:58.039
the Office Wednesday, March thirteenth,
Idle Hands, Craft Dales eight and I

551
00:36:58.079 --> 00:37:00.639
Commerce Street in all the Massachusetts the
Office reducs. And believe it's the third

552
00:37:00.679 --> 00:37:02.880
time we're doing it. Third.
We could do the Office every month,

553
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:07.719
quite honestly, but I'm looking forward
to that. You also, if you

554
00:37:07.800 --> 00:37:09.880
hung around this song in the shitty
of an episode for a shitty series,

555
00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:14.280
the good news is our next two
episodes or two of our best of the

556
00:37:14.360 --> 00:37:19.519
year. Yes, the auction movie
Draft featuring hashtag dork and then we will

557
00:37:19.639 --> 00:37:22.840
have the Mac and Goooby Vault just
in time for the Oscars next week,

558
00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:27.480
yep. And then we'll do one
more episode that is leading into our March

559
00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:31.079
Macnus, So we have March Macnus
coming up, and then we also have

560
00:37:31.360 --> 00:37:36.719
a full Aquaman two review. We
have a bunch of good shit coming up.

561
00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:40.519
I'll tell you I'm having a hard
time listen. Right off the top,

562
00:37:40.800 --> 00:37:45.159
I did not give Dune two forty
hot dogs, but I'm having a

563
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:47.760
hard time not thinking it's the greatest
thing ever because everything I've watched this month

564
00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:52.039
was so bad. We also didn't
mention this at the end of this week

565
00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:54.119
Dune Too. I said it in
my head and realized just now. So

566
00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:59.760
we literally we have five or six
straight episodes like bang. Last episode,

567
00:37:59.840 --> 00:38:01.719
like Max said, if you stuck
around, thank you. This last episode

568
00:38:01.880 --> 00:38:06.920
not great. The next five or
six Soon too was great. Yeah,

569
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:10.719
real good. Did you give it
forty hot dogs? I don't think so,

570
00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:15.960
but I don't have it at forty
but it's fucking close. But everything

571
00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:21.480
is necessary. Yeah, it's gonna
be an interesting conversation for sure. And

572
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:24.320
speaking of conversations, you said that
Denny vellin Away said that what he does

573
00:38:24.440 --> 00:38:29.079
not like about movies is dialogue.
He's sort of right though, so yeah,

574
00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:30.880
I think it's all. He didn't
name it by a name. But

575
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:36.159
what I think he's calling out is
shows like mad Men and how that became

576
00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:39.519
such a craze, but nothing fucking
happens in there besides people talking. And

577
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:43.679
I get that's to a certain extent. But the reason why I don't like

578
00:38:43.800 --> 00:38:47.119
mad Men and shows like that is
because it's so telegraphed, because there's so

579
00:38:47.239 --> 00:38:51.360
much dialogue, and you're showing the
characters doing so many things. You know,

580
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:54.000
Don Draper's a bad guy ten minutes
of that show. So I get

581
00:38:54.039 --> 00:38:59.079
what he's saying, Like, there's
no there's no big grandiose moments in these

582
00:38:59.159 --> 00:39:02.159
shows you have in a lot of
these movies because it's telegraphed, it's long,

583
00:39:02.599 --> 00:39:07.119
there's fucking twelve fifteen, twenty episodes, and on top of it,

584
00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:12.000
there's no need to have these big
climb the rise of action of falling action

585
00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:14.880
in a show when you have twenty
episodes in a say, and what he's

586
00:39:14.880 --> 00:39:17.119
saying that a lot of movies kind
of fell into that. Yeah, and

587
00:39:17.519 --> 00:39:22.519
he's not entirely wrong. Yeah,
that said I can deal with some of

588
00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:25.119
those movies. Like good example of
this is the movie Marriage Story Adam Driver

589
00:39:25.159 --> 00:39:29.800
Scarlet Rohnson from like two or three
years ago. Loved that movie, but

590
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:36.039
it was basically all dialogue, dialogue
driven acting. You know, it's essentially

591
00:39:36.079 --> 00:39:38.079
a stage play. I can tolerate
that every once in a while, but

592
00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:40.840
I can't have a majority of my
movies be like that, right, And

593
00:39:40.960 --> 00:39:44.920
that's why I think a movie,
you know, I didn't love it,

594
00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:50.159
but Barbie being just this big spectacle, or even you know, Oppenheimer is

595
00:39:50.199 --> 00:39:52.719
three hours long. It's a very
dialogue of movie as well, but there

596
00:39:52.840 --> 00:39:55.960
is this spectacle to it. Those
two movies kind of flourish because of this.

597
00:39:57.079 --> 00:40:00.559
But why why Oppenheimer is different is
because, huse, he turns it

598
00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:06.039
into this like spectacle rollercoaster of a
ride where if you had just read that

599
00:40:06.199 --> 00:40:09.199
story or like a documentary, it
would have been kind of boring at points.

600
00:40:09.239 --> 00:40:13.280
But even if he told it in
a linear fashion, that might have

601
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:16.719
made it kind of boring too good
point too. So you know what,

602
00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:22.760
I'll say it credit to Christopher Nolan. I know everyone else is afraid to

603
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:25.320
say this. He's a good director, He's number two on the planet.

604
00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:30.920
But you heard it here. Denny
Villaneuve is also very good, number one,

605
00:40:30.159 --> 00:40:35.119
number one. I might go flipsy
floppsy there, But we had this

606
00:40:35.280 --> 00:40:39.599
small conversation. I don't think there
has been a Villaneuve movie that made me

607
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:47.840
feel like two Nolan movies have Batman
begins and uh, Tenet didn't care for

608
00:40:49.119 --> 00:40:52.320
Tenant was a big swing. It
was a big swing. I'll give you

609
00:40:52.440 --> 00:40:55.199
that. And also he went down
swinging. May I suggest this you don't

610
00:40:55.280 --> 00:41:04.239
understand time. I think I understand
time and I understood Interstellar. Yeah,

611
00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:09.280
people, Interstellar is a good case
study or a good starter conversation for some

612
00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:12.639
of the likes movies, because you
either love that movie or hate it.

613
00:41:12.760 --> 00:41:15.719
I think that also might be like
an expectation thing with you know that cast

614
00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:22.360
Nolan's attached coming off in Inception and
the Batman series. Yeah, all right,

615
00:41:22.440 --> 00:41:24.039

lot of good episodes in the office, so I think they might find one.

631
00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:25.760
Oh yeah, maybe when Dwight burns
his foot. Maybe Benny, Honey,
