That's actually Godzilla versus Kong Kong. Actually no, it's what is the X
even? Is it actually X? I don't think it's versus. The first
X doesn't mean And though I've never seen someone be like, oh Travis X
still in are hosting? You never seen that. You've never seen like two
names like someone X. Anytime they announced a new crossover for Smash it would
be like Smash times Benetta, and it would be well, he said Smash
Times, but you said Smash but he says like I would have done Smash
times and babe, people say yeah time. So if I so this movie
is called godzill Times and Godzilla and Kong? What do I say? Times?
And very unofficial source this individual study that National Institute of Fashion Technology graduated
twenty twenty one. When someone puts an X in between two independent entities,
it means that two entities are collaborating for a specific purpose. So this is
comeing from the fashion world. And maybe they found that on the screen ranch
specific called by collaborate. You know what, Now that's Sam and you say
that I have now thinking of music wise, that's where I would have seen
So that makes sense. Okay, Why though people off use it for fan
ships. Okay, thinks that's bubb Thank you Sam. Why are they not
just calling this god and why is it agular? I would agree with dayla
one of the coolest letters, thought King Kong a cooler letter than an X
even though the ex really changed a meaning recently because of that, Travis,
Remember when you're back on the Xbox three sixty days. Yeah, and guy
has a few axes in his name. This nightmare just slays of this game.
Why were you just zoom? Why were you just yeah? Because I
saw something there with axes his name? Thought he slays in this game.
No, that's the honest thing of welly are you looking for guys back like
to those and seven days? Can you see that in their gamer tag?
His katie must be great. He has his name and he has boys playing.
We're going to corporate this question all the way around. Let's talk about
God Zone Kong now and then we'll go then we'll go round. I I
don't know. I said. I said I was back in because I was
done after the last Godzilla versus calling like that's it. This is a Dylan
because you didn't see that awful movie. Not great, It's really bad.
It's really bad when even Taylor for the Big Crossover puts other Kong movies above
it, in my opinion, so really bad. As I came out and
then the cast stands Stevens and I think, I can't remember who the directors,
but I like the directors. They're like, okay, maybe I'm back
in. But luckily, and even more luckily now that we do have Godzilla
Minus one coming out for me, that's like that fills the box. I
no longer need to see this. So I'm really hoping for taylor'sae because I'm
gonna throw him next that Kirkland is reviewing this. If not, I know
Taylor will do a soul review. But this is also coming in March,
where I think it's this Dune and something we're just talking about it. It's
just stacked. Yeah, And it's that thing where it's like, okay,
once I get to that three plus movie, it's like as a father of
three, it's like I gotta start picking. Maybe i'd see it, but
no on review wise, right like when like Avatar, I had to see
later, like Killers Saltburn, So there's sometimes I go, okay, I
can't see this review weekend. This would be that this trailer. I don't
know, this is nothing I want out of this franchise. I guess it's
just that maybe with god Zill versus Cang, if there was like a level
of, oh, fuck it, let's thrown just be really cheesy. They
seem like they are being really cheesy here, but the problem is they always
still take themselves so seriously. There's like an hour of human subplot that always
is boring. I don't know why Godzilla has the fucking mech arm and I
broke when I saw a baby Kong like man like that. He looks bad.
It doesn't look bad per se, but just like the CGI doesn't look
bad, it's his design. I don't know, there's something off, something
weird with him. But yeah, I think with this being in March that
I I can't subject myself for two hours this is well, this is a
VOD home watch for me. But now Godzill minus one, which everyone the
way that describes like, oh, this type sounds like the movie that I
wanted a Godzilla movie. And that's great because people if they want like a
cheesy, fun Godzilla Cang movie, you got it. Like you all have
your different flavors. It's different though, where someone like me who likes Batman,
Oh, I'll take all the Batman flavors. With Godzilla, it's like,
ah, I'd rather go the very serious, truly dramatic route, so
I don't. I will not see this in March, unfortunately, and this
trailer didn't. This was the last chance to sell me, and it's like
even unsold me a bit more like I don't need to be seeing this,
so I'll piggyback on you there because I feel like I feel like I was
sold. I can't car until I saw this trailer. I don't know I
was. I don't really remember too many like major moments from that last movie,
but I felt like by the end of it, I was like,
Okay, I'm satisfied, and I'm not like regretting that I did see this.
There was enough like the Neo Tokyo sequences in my mind were super epic,
and I haven't really watched it, so I don't know if they are
still to that caliber, but I remember really really liking those moments. There's
some really beautiful designs for just the way that they did some of the the
action, specifically like in that fight arena. It just seems like, you
know, if you have a next gen Godzilla game, like I want that
as one of the arenas because it just looks so fantastic. I don't know
why that's coming up. Oh, I guess that's right. I reached for
the original that's right September. For this trailer, I think it just was
reminded me of certain things that I had issues with from the previous movies.
So the fact that we're like going back to the Hollow Earth thing. It
was fine enough for the uh for for the usage of that first one,
but now it seems like it's gonna be kind of a like, I don't
know what the ratio of like this area versus the surface is gonna be for
the movie, but it's it's maybe a little bit too more from for my
liking. At least I'm getting out of the trailer really just wasn't vibing with
all, like the Kong people. I don't know what it was. I
don't know what it is. It's maybe going through the Apes stretch shows right
now, it's a little bit too close to that. I'm getting beneath the
Planet of the Apes vibes and for the vast majority of the CGI. It
looked it looked, it looked good. It I was gonna say good enough,
which kind of sounds harsh, but it definitely seemed good, solid good.
But then, yeah, I think there was like the baby Kong thing
that you that you mentioned. It's just like, I don't I'm not even
interested in what that story is gonna be. I just imagine they're gonna Kong's
gonna die because he's already losing an arms. Now he's gonna be just getting
pieced together. I mean, is he losing an arm? Though it looks
like he's wearing a baby's wearing it, right, I don't think it's okay.
Yeah, he's wearing Findy gaunt. Yeah, there's stones in this movie.
Maybe they're gonna I don't know. I oh, fuck Dan, I'll
show up. I guarantee. It's something like this enemy con can't take on.
So the humans make that's their incorporational plot. They make them a fucking
glove And it's just like, why, I really you know you go ahead?
Oh god? Oh, I was just gonna say because I was wrong
to correct myself. It's out in April March. But this is where I
still think I might sit out. March has Dune, it has that imaginary
movie from Blaum Mouse. The ray Man movie is coming out, so look
at that, the video game one. Uh, you got Pixars Luca and
then Ghostbusters, Kung Fu Panda and Mickey seventeen, the Rock Pass and Bunk
John Hoe movie. So that's all March and April really is the first Omen
and Rebel Moon, I guess. So that's about it. But I still
might use April's like a month to like take a break, because that's for
no like if they should through this in January. January, there's nothing ouse
sure, but but who knows? Maybe, But yeah, I don't think
so. I don't. Mostly the Challengers where it's in you find your head
when he said Luca because Luca Soul and Turning Rider coming back to theaters if
you didn't just a re release, yeah, because they came out on streaming
streaming. Ah, there you go makes sense. Yeah, I can't wait
for Turning Red. I can't wait for those. Honestly, I really like
all those movies. Probably probably Turning Red would be the peak I think amongst
those three if I had to do a little ranking. But anyways, getting
getting back to Godzilla x. Kong or Cang x Godzilla can't remember the order
for it. But yeah, I think, like when Travis brought up like
the human plot stuff, I hate all of that stuff in these Godzilla movies.
It's just it seems like it's fluff like that I have to get through
to get to the fun action sequences, which I think. I think in
all of these more modern Godzilla movies, like I I've at least in joyed
seeing big Godzilla pop off on the other Kaijuws and whatnot. So if they
like came out and just said, like eighty percent of the movie is just
fucking rock'm soccer robots with giant Kaijuws and clashing, just just fucking craft of
the Titans unleash, Like I am so much more for that than like some
weird story explanation on why Godzilla isn't just paired up with Kong from the get
go, Like why do we have to go through all these motions to get
to that team up to get to that cool action sequence where they're kicking ass
together. It's just I don't know, I think, especially if the runtime
is like two hours, I'm concerned that it will be like a lot of
just just human fluff, and I don't need that. So I don't know.
I'm not gonna say I'm not seeing this right now. I might be
convinced, especially if Taylor's you know, give me some puppy dog guys for
a two man review. That could be fun. Were you on the review
for guds for the last one, He's gonna give you one of these.
It was dreaming, so we were all hanging around, Yeah, okay,
what happened? So it was it was an easy watch. It was an
easy watch, like yeah, sure, there's no movies out, but that
was the one that broke me because I was like when everyone some people say
like okay for Endgame, I'm done. That was it for me. Where
it's like I've watched Zilla, King of Monsters, Fucking Skull Kong, Skull
Island, you remember that piece of shit? Like I watch all those to
get to this point, and this was the worst one out of the bunch.
It was very much like the first Justice League movie when that came out,
Like we had all these movies like, oh and now I end up
with twenty seventeen's Justice League. So yeah, that that did it for me,
so, yeah, you check out, we'll re release that review.
But yeah, that was in COVID Times and that was that pretty much punched
my ticket then. So but I was always hoping because I want to like
it. I want to have the cool names, right. Godzilla and King
Kong are both like big big X. Sorry, yeah, I'm talking about
the two of them, Godzilla x Kong. They're both really big names amongst
like the big monster characters. So I definitely want one to see them succeed.
I don't want to just give them a free win though, and pass
it if it's not worthy of it. But go see one. I'm interested
in that one. I've only heard good things, very scores. Uh Friday
got my Christmas party for work, but he already just fucking booted me.
See because I said message Taylor, and I said, I'd have to talk
to you after this when I could go. I have there's that cracker all
weekend. I will see it. But see, Kirk can't do Friday either.
Sunday review. Hit me up. He's going to see without us.
I have been salvating you salvate a few more days, don't you're salvating for
Kong. I don't know. I mean not really, but I don't.
I don't think this trailer is bad. Like this is kind of exactly what
I would expect, you know. It's kind of got those big like sort
of noises. It's got like just full on CGI, a lot of colors.
It's hard to discern what's going on. Uh, can someone spoil it?
What happens in Godzill Versus Kong? For me, what's what's the team
got? Skall Island is basically storms and whatnot. It's not liveable, so
they move Kong to the mainland. Godzilla isn't like Kong being the mainland because
Kong is also an alpha predator like Godzilla, so Godzilla feels he lives there.
You're just chilling. Godzilla just defends his turf, which is all the
mainland, not Skull Island, so basically he goes to fight Kong and then
they realize like, oh, there's a new enemy and it's mecha Godzilla that
the human's made to protect themselves from Godzilla and Kong and everyone. They team
up and they after fighting, they team up and they take down Mecha Godzilla
and they go their separate ways, watching the timer he did it. He
literally did it. I was watching. Yeah, it's just bvs. They
find a reason the team out the same mother, You're a bad guy their
friends now yeah yeah, So how much do you work at this movie,
Taylor? Do you think it's going to be them having a kind of communicate,
Like do you think they're gonna be with each other immediately in this working
together or are they gonna have to kind of go I think you're probably gonna
get meet up in the third act. You're gonna get a whole like hour
of just Kong ex like exploring scent, like the center of the Earth,
finding the other, the other like that. Godzilla come in afterwards. Godzilla
is usually the one who comes in after the fact, and he's just like
the score kicks. Oh yeah. Like even with the last one, Godzill
versus Kong, Gozilla wasn't there at the start. It was a whole bunch
of stuff with Kong on Skull Island, and then they brought in Godzilla just
to fight on top of the fucking aircraft carrier. Right. The first hour
of that movie was like this scene, which are in this cannon? Is
it Godzilla Skall Island, King of the Monsters and then I think the three
leading into the Versus movie and no, yeah, I got And then now
we have we have a TV show? Is that yeah? Or is that
coming on? Is that Godzilla or Kong or both? It's just it's Godzilla
and a whole bunch of other kay juice. But it it literally starts off
being like a sequel to Skullfucker. They pull it off budget wise? Or
is it just a lot of people sitting in cafes talking about big monsters coming
right down? Budget wise? I was pretty impressed. It was actually pretty
dang good. Yeah, it's on Apple, so they don't care. I
was throwing whatever money impossible. But yeah, the dn't they do this thing
where Kurt Russell and Why Russell and the show together because they're playing the same
character. That's fun like that art Uh yeah, I have read that.
Apparently Kurt Russell's character is like one hundred years good age to play. It
sounds like a lot of homework for me to catch up here. Yeah,
it's old. I guarantee you don't actually watch any of that for this movie.
Yeah, that's bad. The show takes place after the twenty fourteen film
in the wake of it, so that's moving. What's the run time on
this bad Boys? And two hours flat? At least two hours minimum.
If it's two hours flat, I I'll know. If it's any longer,
then you have to convince me it's longer even a second over like two zero
second over and one, that's it. Damn. But it could be fun.
I think it could be fun. I mean, I don't think it's
gonna be my movie the year by any means. But I don't really go
to these kind of just trashy action movies these days anymore. So I feel
like everyone's wile I should. Oh God, Silversus Golling was actually an hour
fifty so there's a change and a whole just wait, were you saying it
has to be under two hours or two hours flat? It's over two hours
in any by any second? Okay, then it's an immediate out. Was
a whole memory bank just opened up, and I totally forgot about the big
promotion leading to Gods Oliversus Kong. They did like whose side are you on?
And you're a big Kong guy, and then we see the movie and
cong got his fucking ass handed to a multiple tongs a bitch in that movie
got destroyed. They do. They fought a few times, so every time
God was like twelve times taller, Cong grew into that size they made,
but he still got slapped. Yeah, they made them the same size,
but that's why they're giving them the gloves. Like we saw the footage,
you fucking suck, like take this and fitting. Yeah, I was so
just like I didn't need Kong to win because of course he's my boy and
find the midcake. Kung lost, but I at least wanted to be a
put up a fight and he didn't. It was fucking awful. Just yeah,
I don't get it. I don't understand why you'd make that choice when
you're making that movie, like, let's make gods will just so much stronger
than Kong that you don't care about this fight anymore, you know. I
remember Kong came back with spear. Still it's made from the magic part of
the hatchet was made out of one of the spikes off of one of a
godless species. Doesn't sound like it. It can charge it up to and
you can actually shoot out like the beam from like Godzilla's firebreas be Now,
Yeah, not expecting Goza came fucking decimated Kong even more respect though this one,
and just like the critical damage. Yeah, now he's watching watching like
m m A videos and ju jitsu like he's like, oh, I can
technically remember how Fanos took down the Hulk. It wasn't by power, it
was by like he knew all the like the moves and everything on the ground.
Come on, betters, guy, Rebecca is Rebecca was her first time
jumping, first time, big fan of hers. That's cool. That's the
first time with this fucking awful hair she was in the other one, Gonzilla
versus Kong. Yeah, yeah, why she she had different haircut though,
That's why I don't reckoon. Oh, you're right, yeah, great for
her. So it was Alexander Scars God, oh my god, Brian Tyr
Henry, I remember Brown, that kids, Deppel two, Isaiah Gonzalez.
This task was fucking stat Kyle like Lance Riddict oh Man. Anyways, Taylor,
any thoughts on this trial. I just I know what Godzilla and Cang
and all that is now and now it's it's it's very much transition from what
that twenty fourteen film was. I was telling Clay this in the discord.
Go your on a discord. They have detracted from the scale of these kaijuws,
which I think is a negative for me, but they've swapped it for
just this all out crazy Kaiju combat stuff. What's up? Where are you
on the Godzilla run gate? Because there's a lot of people really right,
it's not happy he's running. It is a big thing, and it's very
It definitely holds out of it a little bit because I mean they're fucking huge.
I mean you have to think if they're running, like the earth would
be shaking. It's fun. They're in the hollow Earth though. Yeah,
yeah, I don't know. It's not gonna like make or break the film
for me because I'm gonna there's probably so much going on leading into that you
don't even gonna have time to think, like, oh, he's running.
In a trailer, it's different because it's very like doing cut scene cutsne cut
and all of a sudden boom they're running. But in the movie there's probably
a billion fucking news because everything going off all at once. So that's probably
enough to set you up with what's going on with them running, but the
scale factor not being there. I missed that first Gods of the film where
when Godzill would just kind of like slowly move on screen, like man,
he's just huge, so huge. But now the buildings feel tiny, the
the kuijis feel tiny. There's not a lot of sustenance there. So that's
my only con necessarily, but I'm still excited. Con con I'm still excited
for this film, just to see more of the story that they were kind
of setting up with the previous film, because I didn't think we're gonna get
this and Chars you're always saying like you're lucky to be getting Godzilla versus Conge
after King of Monsters. Well that was what, yeah, because King of
Monsters did not do well, And that was the rumor that they're like,
if that, if we had knew it wasn't gonna do well, because they
were already making Godzil Versus Kong, and they said if that, if they
knew the box office, that was the room going around, that they wouldn't
have green let God's own Kong. And then when god' Zion and Kong came
out, it was a surprise hit because it did It was COVID times,
but it made four seven, four hundred and seventy million COVID times, like
it was one of the bigger hits in COVID, So that's where they're like,
well, I guess people still like going and now we got that,
we got a show. So yeah. It like because the trajectory from twenty
fourteen it was going down the box office, but this spiked up, and
I'm really I'm curious to see what this one's gonna do, because I really,
I really don't know, like even right now, and it's a little
off topic, but it still fits. Like in uh Uk god Zi minus
Won, they're getting their screenings there and all the screenings are like seventy five
percent full and all commands is like twenty twenty five percent. So it's like,
in this day and age, where are we going back to blockbusters that
aren't just superhero movies. Now they're doing really well. It's tough because,
like I said, you do have Dune and Ghostbusters out like a couple of
weeks before, and I think that that is that does hurt it because those
are big movies. But maybe people just want to I don't know. I
think with the first that one was because it was COVID, I think you
just want a dumb movie. I think, like just a fun movie escapism,
right, So I don't know if people are still there, but I'm
not going to count it out because I count out that last time. I'm
gonna be honest, I pretty well clearly forgot that that movie happened at all,
and there might be a lot of people out there like me, just
because of the time he wouldn't released. So maybe they'll see this and think,
oh, that's a really cool, fun idea. I'm gonna go see
that and not think about any of Drew preamble beforehand, all those movies leading
up to it, my last note, and it's sort of like a con
con. I just am afraid because if we get this movie that delivers such
a like a big cliffhanger, it just makes me afraid because I liked how
the Last One kind of concluded things for the most part, and as rocky
as that film was, it's definitely not my most highest ranked out of all
the Monster Verse films so far. I just don't like the idea of them
opening up a new massive storyline and with potential here for all these like sequels
whatever, and this movie does poorly. We don't get that. I don't
like that idea, because I feel like there's so much that you can tap
into with this universe, and while they're choosing to go with all these other
like Congs and whatnot and Son of Kong. That's totally fine. It's not
what I would have really wanted to go, But I'm gonna see what they
do, because an army of Kongs versus versus Godzilla pretty wild. I just
am hoping that we get to gonna destroy him, all run at them.
I wish that we would have gotten something more along the lines of like a
geigin or destroy the other really crazy wacky Kyu. They're fucking nuts. Even
throw Jet Jaguar in there, some more of those Max Jaguars. They're yeah,
they like Dylan. If this trailer had that, would you have been
like a guaranteed goough if Jet Jaguar was in there. I'm not that much
of a Jet Jaguar fan. I mean, come on, under two hours,
yeah, exactly, that's the sweet spot. I'm looking quick well,
he already said on her two hours. I was trying to see, you
know what, if it was two fifteen and jet makes it easier to extra
fifteen, maybe the next one could be Cang versus Godzilla versus Jet and then
we can get the Sorry x X the Godzilla x Kong versus Jet Jaggs.
Maybe war could be first, so Jet Jaguars Tong. Yeah, that cage,
he'll bring the King Cadora whatever. I just see this board meeting where
some one guy like, there's twenty people about one guy's like no, but
Jet Wark War, like it has to be first, and then then like
you gotta lead with just like an algebra equation the title of this movie.
Yeah, yeah, mm hmm, Well there you go. There'll be at
least a solo review right here, can you hear? I would love it
if you boys would join me, but if no one, If no one
does, I may trying to have Reuben in because the Ruben is there for
the Monster King of the Monsters reviews, so it might be able to snag
him for this one. He was yeah, that Rick Moran is looking motherfucker
as the back. I don't know it was who or it was you or
Reuben, one of you that's you got called Let's take our second break and
then we'll we were back all right? Still? And what are you most
excited for? Other than you know, I'm not gonna drop the dog Ship
trailer banner that exists, but I was pretty unimpressed by all of these trailers,
I gotta say. Well, to be fair, i didn't watch Howse,
Dragonlar Boys because I haven't seen any of those shows, so I'm not
gonna get the best one, which was fair. But I'm behind on those
shows, and by behind, I mean I haven't started them whatsoever, so
I obviously didn't I didn't want to see those big spoilers going on. But
between Fallout and Furious, I mean, I don't think I was necessarily excited
for Fallout just because I hadn't seen what it was. It was like,
well, I don't know, so many video game things have come out and
really suck, so I didn't really know what to expect for that one then.
But I think I actually had a higher expectations for feos and they both
kind of let me down. So I guess i'd still pick Fallout as my
number one if I had to pick, which I do because Maddie asked the
question, Uh, so I'd go follow number one, maybe maybe calling number
two, and then I guess for you three. I'm not have many options
over here because I didn't want to trailers apparently, but yeah, I guess
for Fallout, yeah follow I don't know what it is about it. I
need to see more, I guess. I just feel like this trailer actually
didn't really give me much, and I don't know, I don't know what
I was looking for exactly, but there's just something about it that I think
for me, the way Fallout is really stands strong in my mind is just
this feeling of desolation and loneliness and just roaming through the wasteland with this radio
station on it, and that's like the esthetic that I'm looking for. And
obviously that doesn't really fit with like a TV show structure, but this just
feels like nothing like the way I experience follow and the way I love Fallout,
And so I guess it's I'm not really too excited for. It just
looks like super duper action y and over the top and tons of characters,
but like none of those things really feel like very followed. I know,
like when I think back to like Fallout Forest trailer, that that was all
about guns and shooting and all this crazy stuff, so that definitely, you
know, ratchet up the craziness of it. But Yeah, there was just
really not too much for me to grab onto here. I think some of
the the CGI was was inconsistent. Like I think the bear what do they
call, like yao, gooy whatever they call at the end looked looks pretty
decent, but then like the rad roach at the beginning looked horrendous. So
like the guy is kind of iffy on there. And then also I guess
for me to camera just flip, what's going on? I'm going crazy?
Is that just on my screen or did my camera just flip for anyone else?
All of a sudden, you got it kind of quiet. I don't
know, am I am? I sounded okay, now they're a little quiet.
Okay, now changed for us, and you just started freaking out.
Camera flipped, So I'm like, what am I doing here? Who are
you? You're good? Now? The part about this that need to hope?
It was like doing here? What is the what is like the key
narrative? What is like the main quest of this TV series? Like who's
the main characters that I'm following and falling in love with? And that lady
I don't know what what is her story? What am I supposed to grab
one too? Something? With her dad. I think because con MacLaughlin they
did the whole. Actually, yeah, here's a lady like her dad's in
it. That's the hook. I think that's nothing for me. I don't
care. I don't know who she is saying the game. I care about
my dad, my dad. Yeah, and then you take all these side
quests and stay away from him. But I think this was just the announcement
trait. I think a second trait you'll get the hopefully get the hook.
I think this is to get people that are the normies. I want to
ask you this though, because you are a much bigger fan of Fallout,
you come from, like, you know, many more years of another common
complaint I saw, and this is just I think a common complaint with the
franchise, even the gaming franchise in general. Are you a little disappointed that
it seems like there's a very lack of tongue in cheek, like and not
that it's like Deadpools, but like Fallout usually has some you know, pit
boy and some fun and stands, like even in Fallout four, even with
the skill Tree, it's like the way they have the images and stuff where
people think, oh, this is the really like oh, a dark you
know, like almost you're talking about the dark action world's ending apocalypse like,
and that is the ending of the trailer. It's like showing all the world
schooling hell like very often I am like like, and I, as somebody
that has only jumped on the four, I went, oh, you know
what, those elements of the franchise, even though they're little in there,
I do like that. So I could see people that have loved this franchise
for a while kind of be disappointed that this is more going with the Fallout
four seventy six to five of being a bit more serious. And that's all.
The common complaint that I saw around from people was just the lack of
almost fun to it. You know, it felt very I mean, I
guess in terms of the Fallout you know, fan the backs real like I
I think I feel like a not truly authentic than because like the first time
I played with Fallot three and then New Vegas and four, and then I
went back and played some Fallout two in hindsight, so it's like, I
don't I don't really come from the roots of the story. I guess the
place of it, but I feel like, you know, followed three was
more maybe darker and serious, but there is still goofiness obviously what you mentioned
with the pit boy and those animations or even back to like the original follows,
like those were games were so deep on the RPG stuff where if you
just gave your character like zero intelligence on the stats, you like could literally
not speak in the game. You could only make like like grunts and whatnot.
Like that's how far it went with that, Like that's pretty goofy and
silly, and so the game's definitely had a lot of that, And yeah,
I guess I didn't really get that vibe of it. It seemed more
grounded and more more serious perhaps, so I don't think that wasn't necessarily the
deal breaker for me. But even like with the song choice, like obviously
they grabbed some of those kind of fifties eras song, but I feel like
they went for like a more slow, kind of more ambient sort of one
rather than one of the more fast paced, upbeat ones. And so even
just like throwing one of those more upbeat songs over the same footage could like
completely change it. So that's where I think you made a good point of
another trailer. I definitely need more trailer like these are my kind of very
first impressions. Yeah, but I don't feel conclusive on any of these thoughts
until I until I see more. And it's not necessarily that I'm super bummed
by what I got here. It just didn't really excite me either and didn't
didn't scream follow it other than like, yeah, that's a that's a vault
jumpsuit. I recognize one of those. But otherwise, yeah, I didn't
really have too much of that outside of just classic like post apocalyptic media.
So uh so, Yeah, a little like conclusive at the moment, but
comcial, justly curious. I still want to check it out, Yeah,
because I think I'm more positive and I think for effects wise most probably didn't
have too many issues, Like there's a few, but nothing that as blaring
as maybe some other one thing about versus other shows, because I really think
other than Apple that has the budget for anything, probably HBO would be next
that. Like we we talk about House the Dragons, like, oh,
this looks great, this looks great. Sometimes some of these bigger things we've
seen Star Wars, DC, Marble, they have their issues, and here,
for the most part, I got the vibe as far as like at
least it felt like the game as far as a world that was lived in
and has its whole like it does feel like it's still tied to that game,
Like I could see Fault four and never their Fallout stuff and be like,
Okay, this is something fall Out. I get that people have that
idea with the aesthetic, and I wish that stuff was in there too,
And I think that's stuff that you could some of might argue like, oh,
you should show it in the trailer because it sets it up. I
think that's stuff you could maybe get more in the show, because that could
be harder to preview, and maybe they're worried general audience don't want the very
kookie like pit boy stuff like kind of you know, slowly get that in
there, the same way as like Deadpool. The trailers for the most part
it just looked like narration. But I don't think people really understood the ga
of how much you would like break the fourth wall and not that type of
stuff, right, And I don't know if that's gonna be the case here,
So so I'm excited. I guess also just because it's Amazon. Amazon
has this great quality bar right now for the most part. They have some
of the best shows out there, especially with The Boys and Invincible. So
I saw this and I thought, Okay, this is this is like,
this looks good, and I feel like we don't have too many video game
adaptations that are just flat out good. So that's where I guess. I
am that maybe, yes, it could be closer to some of the game
stuff that people are wanting, and maybe yes, some effects would be a
bit better, But at least to me, it's looking like a good start.
I love Comic clock and so I hope he's in there a lot,
but I think he's just gonna be missing for most of it. So I'm
I'm positive on and I'm excited. I think it's gonna be a fun review.
At least, I don't think it's gonna be the same reaction that Taylor
had to Halo for some people that are worried. I don't think it'll go
that far. I think there's gonna be and they have said this is like
can to to the game and they're gonna play explain follow up seaw that goes
better, kind of blank slate sort of ip where there is obviously a lot
of established stuff and they reference things between games, but then like just one
is kind of its own standalone thing, kind of similar to like Final Fantasy,
I guess in that way, whereas, yeah, Halo is like one
continuous story through all these things. So obviously if you suck up the first
season, all think feels kind of doune from there with follow that's not even
necessarily the case. So yeah, uh yeah, I I was kind of
looking forward to this one for just I think that first glimpse of what the
show was gonna be. Obviously knew it was coming. I was got a
little excited seeing it on the trailer list there, especially like in the past.
I don't know if it's only Fallout four, maybe Fallout three had maybe
in seventy six. Do they have like live action sequences at all, like
other than just like the teaser trailer or like the opening maybe maybe in like
the opening credits, like like a okay screenshot, like I don't what's the
word move whatever it is, but I don't think so not much, Okay,
So I think I was just really building up certain things in my head
and what I got very much under delivered. Uh yeah, I don't want
to say I'm not gonna be checking this one out because I do have access
to Prime and I am curious. But yeah, I just think a lot
of it didn't look great. And the things that I loved about Fallout,
I think they they had like a check box of things to like hit to
show. Here got the rad roaches, the vault the vault suit. You
got a oh my god, what are they called? The oh my gosh,
what are they call? Like the mutant looking dudes, the the ghoules,
thank you? Yeah, so I thought it was it was cool to
see them in there, as well as some action. None of the humor
worked for me, like at all in this trailer. There's not a lot
of in it is it is a teaser, but I just nothing really was
pulling me in. I think what I saw or sorry, like the follout
isms that I was looking for, I got them. Like even like the
big mech suits is like, okay, yeah they looked they look good for
sure, as well as their their little hovercraft vehicles, don't. I'm so
bad the hell carrier things whatever the hell? I am just blanking on my
followed terminology here, I'm big apology go back to But yeah, no,
I just think I saw a lot of haloisms in the show, and all
of the bad ones from the haloisms. I think there's gonna be certain characters
I just really don't like or really don't care about. I think, yeah,
there's just and like, I don't know, I don't want to just
like sign it off here, Sam say it's gonna be shit. I definitely
we'll at least check out the first episode. Maybe I'll maybe I'll male say
that much and then kind of get my full gauge there and who knows,
maybe like another trailer can really win me over on it. But as of
right now, I'm pretty pretty low on this one, pretty unanticipated. I
was really looking forward to the possibility of getting like those like vault Boy little
videos that they have throughout the Follout games, and they didn't have any of
that. And I'm not saying that's like the main Fallout thing, but just
when I when I think of vault Boy and like those types of videos make
me makes me think so Fallout, So yeah, I yeah, you know,
just leave it there before I go to too much harder on this one.
I am very much excited for this show. I have played New Vegas.
I played followed three. That is the extent I have not rolled credits
on either of them, as if you know, in the past, I
am a Elder Scrolls guy more than I am a Fallout guy. So to
kind of understand what this world is really about and to have a show being
that, I guess that access point that will kind of give me this information.
So I don't have to really go and play the games. But if
I do want to go play the games and expand on what I'm going to
learn when I watch the show, I think that's wonderful. I'm just happy
that I can enjoy Fallout through an alternative means, I guess I'm trying to
say. So everything I saw in the trailer looked interesting. I don't have
that foundation of what is kind of like an expectation to be met and certain
things that I probably wouldn't be fond of, like not understanding certain references in
comparison, like not agreeing with how they tackle certain things and all that jazz.
So I feel like having a fresh take will make me a lot more
positive and receptive and a hopefully a good way to the things they do in
this show. Because I don't know what to really expect. You guys are
naming aful lot of things, and I don't recognize majority of them, but
it doesn't detract from my excitement. The humor worked for me in this trailer,
and the vibes that I was getting just seem pretty cool, pretty fun.
So I'm down for this. I'm really excited to watch it, and
if people are there for a review, I would love to be there.
I'll be there. I think we're all there. I think that's a full
house one at least at least for the start. We'll see how it goes.
I think you got us for season one. You know. Still we're
still trying to lock down Kirkly, and he never fully answered if he's coming
back for another show. We'll be talking about Lair today and people will wait
till we get to Kirkland. What was Caroclyn? What was your
