And we are back so trailers Joker to Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice. I forgot it's
the double Beatrice Field just done Propsy Borlance and Cuckoo Serve Borlands because I really
not to say, and I put that in there because the other two.
Do you remember this? Kirkland agreed that he was going to review it.
I don't know. I don't, okay, I don't mean, I just
don't. I have no recollection. I thought on a cast or something he
agreed to. He's like, yeah, of course I'll be there and me
and Tara said that to him, and he has no recollection of it.
He said, no, that didn't happen. I never agreed to. Tara's
still all full baunt and everything, but Kirkland is like trying to do revisionist
history that he never agreed to it. I don't know. I don't want
to see it after Oh no, are you still seeing it? Or are
telling Taylor it's I don't want to. I really really don't. Yeah,
it's I feel like this month I have had to watch so many freaking movies
for this podcast, which you know I love doing. It's great. I'm
not complaining. I don't want to go to the theater and watch Borderlines.
I feel like I need a break, and that's the week I want to
break. And I just don't want to see this movie that I was gonna
that. I just know he's not gonna be good and it's just gonna be
a review and it's a movie movie. I'm gonna be in the theater alone.
It's not gonna see it. I'm gonna be there alone. It's gonna
be four people. Some guys gonna be farting up a store over there,
some guys gonna be laughing at like the Kevin Hart piss jokes. I'm gonna
be so salty. And then we're gonna come home. Taylor. You know
his show times, So I have to wait until like midnight, and then
we're gonna review this movie, and I just I don't want to. I
don't want to put myself up. I don't think there will be mad about
it, because I think he was a pro. I think he was already
planning a soul review and then when people agreed, he's like, oh really,
But yeah, for me, I just thought, Okay, that first
Taylor I didn't like, but maybe the second will show something. It just
I I hate to say this, but I I think I've echoed this before
where it feels like someone put in an AI generator and said, make a
Borderland game into a movie using the Guardians aesthetic, and that's what it feels
like. And I agree with sbubs here where this is gonna be a mega
bomb. Absolutely I was wrong. We'll see about weekend two. I didn't
think it was gonna bomb, but I thought Twisters was we're gonna talk about
it in a second. Was not gonna do that. Well did fantastic,
So you never know. I'm not right about all these But Portlands I look
at I just go I don't know who's going to see this, especially the
time where I feel like if anyone wants to go see like the big action
fun comedy movie dead Pool Wolverine will still be in theaters and I feel like
people would just go see that again or see that for the first time.
And Supermad Mike, do not put that on us. Portlands will be tears
twenty twenty five Golden Geeks pick I do not want to see this movie.
Do not put this Honestly, I will. I will happily watch it on
streaming but yeah, I'm at a point where I'm really not in on the
theater experience for it. Yeah, you know, frameone forgets. I love
the First Portlands. It is an amazing one of my favorites of all time.
But you know, not a series. I've kept up with this in
some other games, but man, these trailers just look they just look so
derivative and boring, and the jokes are just falling so flat. And even
yeah, the trailers don't even look like they're trying. It looks like they
just phone in the trailer, like, oh yeah, me put this together.
That giant like beast that they're fighting here looks exactly like the one that
Drax is ripping apart in Guardians. You have the Elo music playing, of
course, which is just like screams the Guardians of Galaxy aesthetic. To me,
one character has had like a very Drax like line like that. Yeah,
it's definitely exactly what you said there in terms of just Guardians of the
Galaxy is the template that they're following here. So I don't know, I
I'm really I'm really out on this one. I think I'm not seeing it
anymore. Yeah, and maybe that's what happened to kirkcle maybe agreed and just
more than they solve it. And then that's the thing I haven't because I
didn't put it in here. There was a speak no Evil to trailer.
Have you gone that at any movies? No? I don't think so,
okay, because that's something I guess in America where people are just complaining a
lot, that they just keep getting that trailer over and over and over any
of our America watches right now, let us know if you've gone that.
But that's been a big meme. So I just I liked it, okay.
I like to think that that happened to Kirkland where all his screens he
kept getting Borderlands. It just like warmed down, so cuckoo. I'm much
more excited for. And what I liked about this trailer is it showed a
few new stuff, but it felt like it just expanded on that first train
a little bit and didn't like blow its load, which I liked. I
still like the vibe. And I was gonna ask you what what I'm in
treatment with these trailers. I don't know if it's a regular world or I
don't know if it's like a Wes Anderson world where everyone's like a little off
or like, you know how he has that style where everyone's in a different
type of reality and sense very kooky, and I feel like other Hunter Schaeffer,
we see a lot of characters that all feel a little different. So
I don't know if that's the thing too, where she is a regular person,
or if it's like her family moves there they were normal and it starts
to take over. Either way, I'm loving this. I don't think this
has like long legs great marketing, but I'm excited for it. I won't
watch another trailer now they put out there one. This is a good maxime
things like there's another trailer that came out. I didn't make a watch and
I know you told us what the trap one, which sucks that that happened.
So this for me is enough and I'm still very excited by this.
And it still looks a good time. Yeah, absolutely, I like what
you're saying there. Of all the characters seem a bit off except for our
protagonist. Yeah, it does have like a bit of like a Truman Show
energy, where like even the locale that we're in it is like a weird
place where Hunter Shaffer's character goes to like work at this like it seems like
pretty out of the way hotel motel situation, and it seems like a very
isolated community. But it's just not a lot of people like this when whenever
you see this trailer, there's not just people walking in the streets, it's
a very quiet situation. We'll only ever see people like in lab rooms and
whatever, like that's the only time we see her talking to anyone. So
it does seem weird and intriguing. I think this trailer what it did the
first one was very much the setting, the I think, the the gore
of it, the horror vibes, but it was very mysterious, like you
didn't really know what actually is the antagonistic four of the movie. But I
feel like that's what this trailer did for me, is it showed off,
Okay, this creepy woman who's like a killer in the area. That's who
the villain of the movie is. So that's why I feel like this trailer
really showed off to me. It was like, okay, showing a bit
more of that, but as you said, not enough to spoiler or make
me or take me out, because like I figured, Okay, there's someone
creepy person out there that's obviously what's yeah on here, so I think it's
fine to show a little bit more of that. But yeah, I think
they they were pretty restrained with this trailer, so I thought it was a
good one. And I'm very excited for this movie for sure, more excited
for Beeli just beel Juice kind of showing that, a this guy's to me
working with our team that go around because you're no Kurkulm hadn't seen biliche,
are you nothing? Okay, So yeah, he's he's definitely more of the
antagonist of the first one, but it seems like this go around he's maybe
uh having to partner up with Still I still feel like he's still I mean,
he's still sucking people on phones and stuff. He's gonna be he's gonna
he's gonna be tricky. But I feel like they got the same goal.
Maybe this movie where the first one he's a bit more of a hijacker.
So yeah, No, I love how weird it looks. I love I
just love the vibes, the energy of it. I think the dialogue seems
pretty good and snappy, So I'm into it. I don't know if this
trailer really changed my hype level at all, honestly from the previous one,
just because once again, I haven't seen that original so it's hard for me
to get too hyped on like oh, that guy with the shrunken head,
like I remember him from you know, thirty two minutes in the first Beetle
two. So I don't know those kind of connections with it. But I'm
excited for that retro and that movie. That's gonna be a good time.
Yeah, I think I'm about the same. I think the only thing I
like with this trailer was like seeing Keaton a little bit more and I just
go like, yeah, he's still he still got it, And so I'm
excited. Again. I still don't know a lot of the human the trailer.
I have to wait and see when we get in the movie what it
feels like, you know, just because like in the trail, effects on
the delivery. It's not that it's bad, it's just that it's just it
doesn't like hit right. I'm not like, oh, that's a funny joke.
It just I just don't want to be in the theater and they do
that joke and me had the same reaction do at home, where I just
feel like I'm not really laughing at it. So I don't know. I
think it's just I have to get been there in the theater, like that
movie will start to like alter your brain chemistry and you'll just get goofy mood
watching. That's what I hope. Yeah, where it's tough to like checking
it out for the trailer and everything, but let's see what else did we
had? We had Dune Prophecy. I'm still I'm a iffy on I like
this trailer, been in the second or the first one, but I'm not
hyped yet, and I'm waiting to be hyped, especially after Dune too.
I'm definitely giving this a shot because I like the Dune stuff, so I'm
hoping if they can even capture about like sixty percent of that some of that
magic and lower stuff, and the Ben and Jezerie always say like, oh,
that's the stuff that we're most interested in. So by the same time,
it is again to be like a Star Wars prequel thing where Okay,
maybe we didn't need as much, but I'll still be there. But these
trailers haven't engaged me into a day when I got to be there, but
I will be there. Yeah, I'm gonna go there. This is a
zero to ten for me. I have no hype for this. I think
these trailers, I mean, maybe they're really like they're maybe they're really accurate
to what the show is. And if that's the case, I could not
care less. I I don't think this looks interesting at all. And I
yeah, I'm so interested in the lore and the world building of Dune,
so it's a real bummer. But yeah, I I I don't think I
could sit through this one. I don't think I'll even watch the first episode
if it's if, if you and other people are watching it and tell me
it's amazing, and yeah, and even if it's some how good, wouldn't
it to be. I think it would need to be for as good as
the Dune movies in order for me to want to check it out. And
I just don't think it's going to any work close to that. Yeah,
that's tough. What about Joker? Joker Too came out? They've announced it
came out. Oh my god, you're sorry. They've announced a bunch it's
doing a bunch of festivals. I got those date it's about to eighteen.
I think they said lots of praise for right now the people I have seen
it from the festivals and everything. Yeah, what do you think about this?
A lot more Gaga in here. We actually hear Phoenix singing this one.
So, uh, where where are you for Joker? Too? Man?
I gotta I gotta say it's uh. I mean, it's not a
zero to ten, But I these trailers are not doing it for me on
the scene, and I don't I don't know why because I love Gaga and
I'm excited for her in this and I love that first movie. I don't
know if it's I don't know if it's just time on this and I've kind
of been distanced from it. I haven't rewatched Joker, and probably since the
year it came out, like before Golden or like Golden Geeks probably was What
do you think you're gonna when it comes closer to I probably will because I
mean, I gotta see. I wonder if Mudds is gonna be interested in
this one and if yeah, so we'll probably do a rewatch of that first
one. But yeah, like I'm sure when I'm in the theater and I'm
watching it, I'm going to enjoy it, but something about the trailers is
just not doing it for me. I think this one did really set me
up a lot more of like what to expect there in terms of like,
Okay, the movie is very much centered around this trial, uh and and
like Gaga her character Harley Quinn, like in terms of gaining more of that
kind of public persona, that public eye being the wife of this crazy guy,
and I don't know that whole element. I think that that is kind
of compelling, Like I don't know in all the kind of I don't know,
dark or like serial killer podcasts or like shows I've watched, Like that's
a very interesting angle, is like the wife to the serial killer who is
like just obsessed with him and go to all these lengths and so it's an
interesting angle. Like on paper, all that stuff sounds great, but there's
someone with these trailers that, like I just I just don't have the hype
level for it, unfortunately. I mean, I'll still be there. I'm
getting I'm gonna get my ticket, I'm gonna see it, but yeah,
I just feel like at this point, I'm I probably won't have that hype
level until I'm actually in the theater watching it. Mm hmm, yeah,
I'm still I think the first trailer was better, but it's it's a thing
where I can't get any more hype because you can go back to the review
and I think in newscast aff my bias is I, you know, Todd
Phillis must have been listening, because the reason I can't get any more hyped
is because I this is exactly what I want from this movie, so I
just have to hope they execute it well. I wanted the Harley thing because
I thought, like you said, with that, and I kind of did
the same example of Charles Manson because I always hated when people we're not getting
a Batman, but I always hate when people go, oh, well this
this Joker can never stand up against Batman. I think with this again,
this trailer shows it's like it's the idea of what the Joker is, right,
Arthur Fleck is just a guy, but it's like it is like a
Charles Manson cult like thing. And I'm really liking how all these people like
they even have which we got confirmed Harvey dentis in this movie, so that's
cool. I like that. But even says this line of like, oh,
well, he's a martyr, and that's where it's like, that's the
perfect example of what that character would become. Right, he'd be for the
little people, but they would take that image and distort it in a way
that it shouldn't be. So I'm really like it. I do wonder if
it's a very not just sending a cop out, but a hard movie to
show off in a trailer with some of these musical aspects, and they are
leaning into a musical where that's the joke of like Mean Girls or Wicked,
where in those trailers they don't really show their musicals right where joker is they're
being I'd say mostly up front. I feel like it seems like a musical,
though there is I agree with that, but they're showing that these characters
are gonna have at least set pieces where they sing, right. There's pianos
walking singing in prison. They have Gaga doing some singing and stuff like that.
So I think with this one, it's really gonna live and die on
the chemistry those two, and I trust them for delivering. So I'm I'm
very excited for us, but I can't It's very similar Dead Pull and Wolverine.
The second they announce they're doing it, I don't think I can get
anything. They can just meet it. Maybe maybe they can exceed it,
but I there could be a level of disappointment. But for me, they're
hitting on the stuff I I think they should be with this movie. And
I think there's also just like the first one, they can say some good
things about society and even each doc we tell it like that happens all the
time in true crime doks we watch where they're just like yeah, and when
we do these interviews and stuff, we're immortalized than the serial killer. But
then all these people still do them right, They still say like, I
don't want to talk about him because but it's like if you're in that dock,
you're you're pushing that legend even more and stuff, right, it builds
it up. So I think there is this idea that people are semi I
wouldn't say obsessed, but very intrigued by not evil, just what is motivates
people, and I think they can't hit on some of that stuff. So
yeah, I'm my body's ready, so nice. Uh yeah October Yeah,
