Yeah, they're super casual and the 5 00:00:38,039 --> 00:00:42,159 trooper just slowly loads the bazooka and fires it.

Oh yeah, we don't talk about 31 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,800 like that anymore. No, he Uh, we did the Hidalgo retro and 32 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,080 then he's like, all right, that's good for me. Oh, I 33 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,280 thought you guys were just meming about it. Oh shit, you're still Patreon 34 00:02:31,479 --> 00:02:36,479 still a good supporter of the podcast. But now he's rescinded his his right 35 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,199 for the Patreon producer. Oh damn, Tyler. Well, you'll have to 36 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,719 ask him when he eventually joins in After nine. Yeah, I will have 37 00:02:44,759 --> 00:02:46,719 to. Uh, but what about you, Kirkland, What's what's going on? 38 00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:51,120 You got anything popping off? Oh? Not so much. Speaking of 39 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,120 After nine, we just had a nice fun After nine evening episode on U 40 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,159 on Saturday. There that was lots of fun. We had quite a few 41 00:02:58,159 --> 00:03:00,840 people show up, so that was it was. It was a great time. 42 00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:05,439 I feel like we like they happen often, but not often enough. 43 00:03:05,439 --> 00:03:07,599 I think because they're they're just a great time, and because it seems like 44 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,840 it's been so long from each After nine episode that we do. There's just 45 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,400 so much to catch up on. There's so much content and just stuff out 46 00:03:15,439 --> 00:03:17,319 that people, you know, not everyone's watching the same time, which I 47 00:03:17,319 --> 00:03:22,159 got discord. I'm not sure if you already mentioned that, but great discussions 48 00:03:22,199 --> 00:03:25,719 on there. What else do we got cooking right now? We got our 49 00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:31,840 big you know, GV Day Bonanza whatever we're calling it, that's dropping this 50 00:03:32,159 --> 00:03:36,960 this summertime. That's gonna be lots and lots of fun. Yeah, I 51 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,120 don't know. I think that's I think you kind of covered all the other 52 00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:42,520 plugs though. Yeah, I think I think we got it all. So 53 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,479 let's I mean, let's let's get into knuckles now. I mean you can 54 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,199 kind of give like a brief overall. I don't know if you watched were 55 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,759 you there for the reviews of the other two films, I was thank you 56 00:03:53,919 --> 00:03:58,759 for remembering that. But yeah, that was the famous one where I think 57 00:03:58,759 --> 00:04:01,280 it was Umi travel on Sonic two or was it just you and me? 58 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:08,000 I think it was you me. Maybe it was just you and me a 59 00:04:08,039 --> 00:04:10,560 long time ago apparently, But no, that that was the one that I 60 00:04:10,599 --> 00:04:13,680 actually missed the end credit scene, and you guys were telling me about it, 61 00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:15,839 and I think I was like mentioning him like man shadow, like he's 62 00:04:15,839 --> 00:04:19,639 got to be in the next film, right. Well, you you clearly 63 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:25,240 didn't see the end credits. No, I I've seen both of them. 64 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,959 Big Sonic fan. Sega Genesis was I think my favorite or my first console 65 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,399 ever had as a wee young lad. So of course I had a couple 66 00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:36,199 of Sonic games on there, and I watched the TV show back in the 67 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,800 day. I remember watching the movies, like the old two D style animation, 68 00:04:40,959 --> 00:04:43,800 and I just I don't know, he's just a character that just really 69 00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:47,959 really, I don't know, just I just really grew fond of. I 70 00:04:48,319 --> 00:04:54,120 feel like just his quirky personality, the chili dog eater, you know, 71 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,639 big blue fan. So of course he's all blue there. But no, 72 00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:03,439 I always love Sonic growing up, and I feel like I I quite enjoy 73 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,319 those movies as well, Like I kind of know what I'm getting into when 74 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,920 I watch them. I think I think I like them like the most the 75 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,279 first time I saw them. Maybe I like them a little bit less after 76 00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:17,000 that, but now, like when I revisit it now, because I just 77 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,680 know what to expect, like I'm still able to have a good time in 78 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,839 there. I like the soundtrack. I like, you know, our our 79 00:05:23,879 --> 00:05:29,680 Sonic heroes, and James Marsden is he's a good enough human compatriot with with 80 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,759 our heroes, unlike you know, mister mister Whipple for Knuckles here, but 81 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:40,720 no, I quite like the character of Sonic and just kind of like the 82 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,480 universe that's in it. I feel like the games, you know, they 83 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:51,360 do go more into I guess the Sonic lore, but for like, it's 84 00:05:51,399 --> 00:05:55,360 nothing too deep. So I feel like, although I have played a lot 85 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,279 of the games, I have seen a lot of those shows and stuff, 86 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,040 and in my memory that they're just kind of like one off adventures. I'm 87 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:06,120 not thinking of like some big multiversal combination type universe connections, you know, 88 00:06:06,759 --> 00:06:11,639 we're all all that stuff. I don't know where I was going with that, 89 00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:15,920 but so yeah, I feel like I am pretty positive overall on it. 90 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,319 Coming into the Knuckles show, I was quite looking forward to it, 91 00:06:19,439 --> 00:06:23,879 just because Knuckles is a really sweet character, you know, he's like the 92 00:06:23,959 --> 00:06:29,480 badass and in my mind of the Sonic heroes, and I don't know, 93 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:34,680 I just feel like the animation around the characters looks really good, and especially 94 00:06:34,759 --> 00:06:38,519 in the Sonic movies, like when he's using his powers and stuff, like, 95 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,920 I think all of that looks great. So I'm like, yeah, 96 00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:45,639 give us a show with Knuckles like that sounds fantastic. I didn't really know 97 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,160 what I was getting into, clearly because I think we're getting close to the 98 00:06:49,199 --> 00:06:54,360 episode drops. And I think it was maybe Travis that had asked me if 99 00:06:54,399 --> 00:06:56,120 I was getting ready for I'm like, oh, yeah, no, I 100 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,240 can't wait. It's gonna be super exciting. And he mentioned that there's like, 101 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,920 yeah, it's like apparently mostly following like the human guy and like Knuckles 102 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,279 is not in as much as maybe you would hope, And that was kind 103 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,120 of like an immediate red flag. I was like, I feel like I 104 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,399 should have known that. Maybe I just really steered away from the trailers and 105 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,480 looking into any information about it. I was just like, yeah, if 106 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,079 it's like the Sonic movies, like it's gotta be it's gotta be good enough, 107 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,800 right, And uh, man, was I in for a rude awakening 108 00:07:23,879 --> 00:07:29,120 episode one? Like oh man, it was we even have Sonic and and 109 00:07:29,279 --> 00:07:32,959 Tails in there, but like they lost me half like not even I don't 110 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,839 think halfway through the first episode. By the second episode, that's where I 111 00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:41,920 was like, man, why did I not like do more research and tell 112 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,720 Taylor that I maybe don't want to do this review. This was this was 113 00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:48,279 a journey and not not a pleasant one. This was a really hard show 114 00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:54,959 to get through, and yeah, I just it was just not for me, 115 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,560 which is which is unfortunate because I feel like amongst the podcasts, I 116 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,079 mean, you're pretty positive on the song film, but I feel like I'm 117 00:08:01,279 --> 00:08:05,439 maybe like the number one Sonic head and I was. I was out pretty 118 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,759 darn early in the show. I made it through, obviously because we're here 119 00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:13,040 to talk about the entire season, which is the first episode and a half. 120 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:18,120 But no, this was a big, big disappointment and really did the 121 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,199 opposite effect of what you would want from the show leading into like the next 122 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,800 Sonic movie. It kind of killed my hype. I don't think that this 123 00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:30,040 will be what the next Sonic movie is, but it's just it didn't do 124 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,360 much to get my juices flowing and like want the next project. Now. 125 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,039 It's just like, well, it's got to be better than this. Not 126 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,320 so much of like maybe if it was a really nice, positive show, 127 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,360 at least for my own thoughts, it could have been like I can't wait 128 00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:48,120 for that next movie, but I can currently wait for this movie, especially 129 00:08:48,159 --> 00:08:54,279 there's certain characters coming back. Yeah, yeah, humor was really wasn't great 130 00:08:54,279 --> 00:08:58,960 for me. I was even mentioned our messaging Taylor and just like, man, 131 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,000 like, what is the show? Who's the target audience for this show? 132 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,720 Because the humor, like it might be similar to the Sonic movies, 133 00:09:05,759 --> 00:09:11,159 But I think it's just because our main lead is just really not a funny 134 00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:15,759 guy in my mind. So it's just a lot of goofy humor that was 135 00:09:15,799 --> 00:09:18,759 not working for me at all, and it made these thirty minute episodes feel 136 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:24,679 extremely extremely long. Yeah, that this was certainly a slog to get through. 137 00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:30,399 And yeah, one of the one of the absolute worst shows I think 138 00:09:30,399 --> 00:09:33,600 I've ever seen in my life. So that is very very low price. 139 00:09:35,919 --> 00:09:39,919 Yeah, I don't know. I think I'll leave it there for my general 140 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:45,600 thoughts starting very low and negative. But hey, that's that's what the show 141 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,519 did for me, but maybe a little bit different. So I kind of 142 00:09:48,519 --> 00:09:52,000 went on tangent there. Taylor maybe can give you your history of that's. 143 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:58,240 Yeah, that's the kidnap rough. So for me, I I do love 144 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,679 Sonic. I missed out on the genus this era. I did not get 145 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,720 involved with that. For me. My Sonic days were Game Boy Advance. 146 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,799 I had the characters for that. I loved playing Sonic on that that was 147 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:13,120 my jam. I always remember, even though I beat the game many many 148 00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:18,279 times, and funny enough afterwards when I wasn't really playing on game Boy anymore, 149 00:10:18,279 --> 00:10:22,440 and I still have it on my phone because I really really like it. 150 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,919 But I got I got Sonic one and Sonic two, the full games 151 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,720 Get on a Mile, which is great, that's fantastic, and they have 152 00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:33,960 like all DLC in there too, a multiple characters. But getting to Knuckles 153 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,600 has always been such a challenge because you had always I think at the chaos 154 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,080 um rolls to actually unlock him with tails I think was just beating the game 155 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,279 and you get him. But the Knuckles is who I really wanted to play 156 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,879 as, and he was always so hard to get. But these characters, 157 00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:52,519 I really love them. And the movies Jim Carrey being Botnik was fantastic. 158 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,159 I love that, and the movies really just they hit home for me. 159 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,840 I always had a good time watched the first one, in that second one, 160 00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:03,600 and then I I went in with a very strong level of optimism coming 161 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:09,919 to the show. Well, I was apprehensive with I think the first trailer, 162 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,159 I think was it the first trailer. One of the trailers brought me 163 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,799 back because I just liked Knuckle's innocent humor where he's talking very warrior like, 164 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,679 and the show seemed like, hits well, it's regular Earth, there's nothing 165 00:11:22,399 --> 00:11:26,320 like this. Just his lifestyle doesn't mesh well, and I thought, Okay, 166 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,480 maybe there will be some chemistry here that really works out well and humorously, 167 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,039 the humor did not work for me in this show at all. It 168 00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:39,879 was it was weird, like I in an unsexualized version of Austin Powers. 169 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:45,480 I feel like this is that's the same vibe to some slight degree in a 170 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,159 very weird way. So yeah, this the show did not do it for 171 00:11:48,159 --> 00:11:52,200 me. It really really disappointed me. There were some parts that I was 172 00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:54,039 laughing, but not laughing because of the humor. I was just laughing like 173 00:11:54,080 --> 00:12:00,360 this is ridiculous, Like what is going on. I'm glad these episodes half 174 00:12:00,399 --> 00:12:05,759 hour because I watched the first. It was Saturday morning and I watched the 175 00:12:05,799 --> 00:12:09,200 first episode and I thought, okay, like I'm done for now. That 176 00:12:09,399 --> 00:12:13,360 was that was a slog I don't know, And so Sunday morning came around 177 00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:16,519 that I thought, okay, I need to just like push through and get 178 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,679 these done. And luckily it is really less than three hours when you think 179 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,039 about six episodes like twenty five minutes each without credits included, so you can 180 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,960 really kind of like push through if you need to. I don't think that 181 00:12:28,039 --> 00:12:31,759 this is gonna have any real major impact on the movie. I think the 182 00:12:31,799 --> 00:12:33,440 third movie is gonna be very, very different. I think that I think 183 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,840 that there was a couple of nods in here towards what we might see with 184 00:12:37,919 --> 00:12:41,320 the fourth movie. But yeah, there's just there's some stuff that they just 185 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,399 like you said, what are they doing with this show? Who are they 186 00:12:45,399 --> 00:12:48,039 making this show for? Because it's clearly not for kids, clearly not for 187 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,240 adults. It's just the writing was very very bad, and I never had 188 00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:56,559 a problem with it. But then Travis kept on like saying it again and 189 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,720 again, like, oh, every movie or shows using like I Need a 190 00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:07,960 Hero that song, and now like it's very prominent in my mind when when 191 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,399 it's used and they used it in this show, I thought, man, 192 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,200 why are they using this show? It just it seems like it's a cop 193 00:13:13,279 --> 00:13:16,519 out. Now you gotta space it out. But the show is not, 194 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,559 Uh it's not the worst show I've seen in my life, but it's definitely 195 00:13:22,639 --> 00:13:26,200 not what I'm going to rush back to watch not something that's really high on 196 00:13:26,279 --> 00:13:31,120 the total poll either for me of rankings. So but you would rewatch it, 197 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,360 there's a gun in my head. I would. So I hope that 198 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:41,559 date never comes, don't I I on either? Yeah? Geezh yeah, 199 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,720 I got I got nothing else like an ad aside from just having questions. 200 00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:46,679 So I'm gonna throw to you when we get the spoilers. I'd love to 201 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,320 hear your questions. I think I have questions also for you. It's okay. 202 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:56,240 It's interesting. I was while watching this, like especially finishing off the 203 00:13:56,279 --> 00:13:58,919 last episode finished off last night, and I was just thinking, I'm like, 204 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:05,279 man, maybe Halo wasn't so bad, you know, Like that's the 205 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,000 level of enjoyment I got out of this show was It was making me rethink 206 00:14:09,039 --> 00:14:11,799 Halo and being like, you know, maybe there's some good stuff in that 207 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:16,279 show that like I actually like, didn't mind too much and it doesn't bother 208 00:14:16,399 --> 00:14:20,440 me. Like I would definitely rewatch both seasons of Halo before I would ever 209 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,519 watch this show again. It which is crazy because I feel like I have 210 00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:30,159 more nostalgia for Sonic than I do in the Halo universe, Like I didn't 211 00:14:30,159 --> 00:14:33,600 experience Halo, you know, at such a young age, Like I remember 212 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,679 going over a friend's house the first time I played Halo, Whereas like Sonic 213 00:14:37,759 --> 00:14:41,519 was literally like the first game system that I had on the Sega Genesis, 214 00:14:41,559 --> 00:14:43,960 and I can't remember if it was Sonic two or three, but like the 215 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,600 game opens up when you're super Sonic and then Knuckles comes in and just like 216 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,679 fucks you up and takes over the the like chaos Emeralds, and I'm just 217 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,480 like, who is this guy? Like like who is that hedgehog? Not 218 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,039 knowing that he's not actually a hedgehogs he's in a kidnap. But no, 219 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:03,840 there's it's wild because even like the Sonicy type lore stuff. I remember mentioning 220 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,559 this. I can't remember if it was the first movie review or the second, 221 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:13,000 but like in that movie, I was wanting more of like the actual 222 00:15:13,879 --> 00:15:16,360 Sonic characters type stuff, right like like they give us a glimpse of their 223 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,720 world and just like, man, just give me that movie. This this 224 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,080 TV show had even less than what like the movies had of that stuff. 225 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,279 It was literally like I shouldn't even be called Knuckles, it should literally be 226 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,320 called like the Whipple The Whipple Show with with like knuckles somewhere in there. 227 00:15:31,759 --> 00:15:37,399 He was just such a side character in this overall show. But yeah, 228 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,960 no, and you mentioned the music. I don't even like hate the songs 229 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,840 that they that they chose for this, but I just felt like they were 230 00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:48,399 so oddly placed. Like even the theme song. I don't know what that 231 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:54,679 song is called something in the Warrior, but yeah, it just it felt 232 00:15:54,720 --> 00:16:00,679 like like an end credit like song, like like a I would play in 233 00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:04,799 the credits, versus like an intro like it just didn't. I don't know, 234 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:08,720 I'm just kind of ranting here, but it just seemed like any any 235 00:16:08,759 --> 00:16:11,879 little thing that they had done, whether it was like the intro, the 236 00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:15,159 the outro, things like that, I was just like, this just irritates 237 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,399 me. I'm so mad that they went with this choice here. And they 238 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,320 definitely had the copyrighted music, as you're mentioning, just like the reuse songs. 239 00:16:25,279 --> 00:16:27,480 It just it did nothing to lift the certain action scenes when they would 240 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:32,639 try to choose certain songs in there. But yeah, I don't know I 241 00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:37,399 hijacked your overall thoughts because I don't know, Yeah, it's not what you 242 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,360 said. Yeah, well, unlet's you have anything else you want to add. 243 00:16:41,399 --> 00:16:45,200 We can take a quick ad break and then we can get into spoilers. 244 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:51,679 So we will be right back and we are back. So I have 245 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,399 a place that I kind of want to just touch upon. If you have 246 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,480 a specific place you want to go, we can go there. No, 247 00:16:56,639 --> 00:16:59,840 I want you to take me somewhere I need to. So this show was 248 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,640 it wasn't sexualized anyway, but there was a scene where Knuckles is in with 249 00:17:04,799 --> 00:17:11,920 Wade's bedroom, childhood bedroom, and he uncovers this cardboard stand up and there's 250 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,200 like what is this white stuff all over like the shoulders, all of the 251 00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:18,400 edges, and like what are they insinuating here? Like he ejaculated all over 252 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:26,000 him because he's super embarrassed and flustered that that Actually it didn't really I feel 253 00:17:26,039 --> 00:17:29,359 like I didn't really think too much about it at the time because I was 254 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,440 just so checked out. But yeah, no, that's that's a great observation 255 00:17:34,559 --> 00:17:40,759 because to our question earlier, like was the show for if there's like references 256 00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:44,440 like that, it's clearly not like Super Youngin's and there's even like a certain 257 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,359 action here, it's clearly not for like a super kitty type type humor of 258 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:56,640 a show, but it seems like they had mature type stuff with it, 259 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:02,079 like other your sexual innuendo reference you just mentioned, and or certain action scenes 260 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,480 or just just certain things that it made it seem more mature. But then 261 00:18:06,519 --> 00:18:08,359 you have a character like Wade Whipple that is just like, man, this 262 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,039 guy is a fucking looney tune and like no disrespect to the actor or anything, 263 00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:18,200 but just what they wanted to do with this character not not the person 264 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,960 I want to lead my show like like this, Like at first, I 265 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,799 couldn't even remember who he was at the start of the show. I was 266 00:18:25,799 --> 00:18:26,799 like, why the fuck did the choose this guy? That's like, okay, 267 00:18:27,039 --> 00:18:32,079 of course it's James Marsden's deputy, which you know, he's fine in 268 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:36,759 that deputy type role, but being the lead, it's just it's way too 269 00:18:36,839 --> 00:18:38,759 much. It was way too much in the first episode. And that's where 270 00:18:38,759 --> 00:18:42,799 I was like, damn, looking up about the Mount Everest. That is 271 00:18:42,839 --> 00:18:47,200 the show that I have to climb and get through. Even though it's only 272 00:18:47,799 --> 00:18:49,960 like less than thirty minutes of an episode, I think they're like twenty eight 273 00:18:51,079 --> 00:18:53,160 with credits, and it's still just felt so long to get through. It 274 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,960 took me, yeah, like I think three instances to get going. And 275 00:18:59,519 --> 00:19:00,240 when I first looked at him, like, man, I can bang this 276 00:19:00,279 --> 00:19:03,000 out in too, Sadi, and it's like easy, like maybe even one 277 00:19:03,079 --> 00:19:07,079 like this is this is such an easy viewing. But no, the show 278 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:12,519 did anything but that for me. But yeah, no, I feel like 279 00:19:12,559 --> 00:19:18,519 there's a couple other type references like that, not so like straight your face 280 00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:21,759 like what you just mentioned when the cardboard cutout, but yeah, that like 281 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:26,039 it just it seems so out of place and not actually funny at all. 282 00:19:26,319 --> 00:19:32,279 Yeah it it It wasn't funny. Then that's reiterated throughout the show. Many 283 00:19:32,319 --> 00:19:34,839 different things are trying to make you laugh with and it just was not doing 284 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:40,920 it for me. And yeah, I guess just we'll touch keep upon like 285 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,759 the trajectory of just being in the house. But the baseline of the narrative 286 00:19:45,799 --> 00:19:52,440 here is that Wade Whipple he gets kicked off his bowling team, he happens 287 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,880 to bump into Knuckles and then Knuckles kind of goes on this journey with him 288 00:19:56,079 --> 00:20:03,000 and helps him kind of find his true masculinity inside to be a warrior. 289 00:20:03,319 --> 00:20:07,839 And throughout this journey they run into agency people trying to take knuckles power and 290 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:14,640 all that kind of stuff, and it all leads to bowling tournament at the 291 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,519 end, and that's again the show is made if you love bowling. This 292 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,039 show is for you. It's all about bowling, which is just crazy to 293 00:20:22,039 --> 00:20:26,799 think about, but it's it's funny. The whole bowling dynamic tournament type thing. 294 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,880 It very much reminded me of Dodgeball, like the movie with you even 295 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:36,759 got ESPN the O Show, which is like the people covering it with like 296 00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:41,240 the newscasters, like it just seemed very similar to Dodgeball in that sense, 297 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,480 but unfortunately just not funny at all. And the newscaster guys, like I 298 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,039 think they're funnier than a lot of aspects of the show. But like, 299 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,960 even that wasn't really doing a lot for me when we mentioned the cutout. 300 00:20:53,599 --> 00:20:56,920 As soon as I saw it, I just thought of Napoleon Dynamite and Rex 301 00:20:57,039 --> 00:21:02,319 Rex Kwondo's wife, Starla. That's exactly what reminded me of just like the 302 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:08,240 super Jack Lady. But you're wrong. There are some things with again just 303 00:21:08,279 --> 00:21:11,440 with the bowling balls and stuff like that, Like you have a scene where 304 00:21:11,519 --> 00:21:17,079 Knuckles throws a bowling ball and all the pins just incinerate, and then you 305 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,279 have him fighting off against random humans and he's just like just pushing him to 306 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,720 the side and stuff, and I guess he's probably withholding back, but I 307 00:21:23,799 --> 00:21:26,519 just feel like, man, these humans should just be incinerated into dust, 308 00:21:26,599 --> 00:21:32,599 like they shouldn't be even a factor here because this guy is just killing things. 309 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,680 But that's my own little beef. It's a kid's show, I think, 310 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,680 so touching back upon like the parents House, the Mom's house. So 311 00:21:41,799 --> 00:21:45,680 the sister character was the fucking most annoying character of all time. I didn't 312 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:51,640 even think she's in the FBI, but fuck, she was annoying. What 313 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:56,039 did you think about that? I completely agree. Yeah, I thought it 314 00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:02,079 was not funny at all, very overdone. I want to say that was 315 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,119 my least favorite episode, but I feel like there's a lot of those episodes 316 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,640 in this show that I just really didn't like, but that one was just 317 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,680 a lot because you have weighed with his sister that are like just very similar, 318 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,079 and again speaking personally, it's just not funny at all. I was 319 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,880 just so done with it, even though we were like two minutes into that 320 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:25,400 episode. So yeah, I wasn't a fan of that whole sequence, and 321 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,279 like, I don't really have any much more to say than that, it 322 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:36,680 just it just wasn't funny, and I wish we focused our efforts elsewhere for 323 00:22:36,759 --> 00:22:41,480 this entire show. I just I really wish they I wish it, like 324 00:22:41,519 --> 00:22:45,279 now, I wish they didn't even greenlight this show, Like it just it 325 00:22:45,319 --> 00:22:48,119 seems like it does absolutely nothing for the advancement of the storyline that is the 326 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,039 Sonic movies either, Like it doesn't even seem like if we have if we're 327 00:22:52,039 --> 00:22:56,720 comparing it to no, I wouldn't compare you know, this to the MCU 328 00:22:56,799 --> 00:23:00,759 or anything. But like WandaVision, it's like a great show to like bridge 329 00:23:00,799 --> 00:23:03,799 certain things in the MCU going from a movie to a movie, which like 330 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,920 you know, you don't I guess have to see the show, but it 331 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,680 is an important show to watch to like really know fully what happens to that 332 00:23:11,759 --> 00:23:15,559 transition that gets wanted to where she is by the start of Multiverse of Madness. 333 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,720 What the fuck happened in this show that like, if I watched Sonic 334 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,319 three, I think gonna be talking about Wade Wade whip It and his fucking 335 00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:26,319 or Whipple whatever his name is, and his sister and those characters. I 336 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:32,640 fucking hope not, because that's really gonna severely uh diminish my overall thoughts on 337 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,759 on the next movie. So yeah, I I it just it's so strange 338 00:23:36,759 --> 00:23:40,319 to me in hindsight of what they were trying to do for this show. 339 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,400 And yeah, no, it it just baffles me because I it just does 340 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,000 not feel like a Knuckles show at all. It's it really does not. 341 00:23:48,559 --> 00:23:52,640 I'm sorry if I just keep repeating myself, but it's just it's I'm so 342 00:23:52,759 --> 00:23:59,319 baffled. No, I totally agree. You get you get more focusing aspects 343 00:23:59,319 --> 00:24:00,720 and narratives just with the characters and you do with Knuckles, And I think 344 00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:03,480 that's just a shame. I got excited in that for a brief little bit 345 00:24:03,519 --> 00:24:07,200 at that first episode when it was okay, Tails and Sonic and Knuckles and 346 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,759 all three of them doing their own thing. I was exciting, Yeah, 347 00:24:11,759 --> 00:24:14,480 and I was hoping that we get a little bit more of that with again 348 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,599 Wade Whipple, the human interaction and kind of not forefront but in the background 349 00:24:18,599 --> 00:24:21,559 a little bit. But no, we didn't. I didn't get that. 350 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,799 So I think that was definitely a missed opportunity. This was a scene that 351 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,559 in the part of the house that made me kind of laugh, but it 352 00:24:30,599 --> 00:24:33,799 was just kind of wacky, just when the mom was looking at Knuckles and 353 00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:40,400 like knuckles protect the candles and she just like the way they filmed it was 354 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:45,680 cool because it was just panoramically like rotating around the kitchen and the mom was 355 00:24:45,759 --> 00:24:48,000 just kicking the shit out of these guys and the Knuckles was fighting too, 356 00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:52,920 and it was cool. I enjoyed it, but yeah, then you just 357 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,119 get the shitty characters, like the sister character, when I wasn't enjoying And 358 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,319 I enjoyed some moments with Wade Whipple. I think he'd definitely sold me at 359 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,319 times, just being kind of like emotional or trying to do other things, 360 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,359 but for the most part, I was not really enjoying his performance in this 361 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:14,680 role. And it's just it's just so outrageous, Like there's there's nothing from 362 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:21,519 the specific episodes worth really I don't I even say that, Like each episode 363 00:25:21,559 --> 00:25:26,400 was supposed to be focusing on continuing towards the like going through the main narrative, 364 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:32,519 but each little obstacle that takes place in these episodes just it wasn't anything 365 00:25:32,559 --> 00:25:34,640 grand, it was anything important. It didn't feel like we were gaining anything 366 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:41,200 aside from our main guy just touching his inner warrior inside himself Knuckles letting him 367 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:47,279 get captured, which we'll talk about because I was fucking bonkers. Yeah, 368 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,440 justck. Yeah, it just blows my mind. I don't know who proved 369 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,960 the show. I really don't. And the more I'm talking about this, 370 00:25:53,079 --> 00:25:57,000 more heated I'm getting when I think about this. No, yeah, it's 371 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:04,240 it's I'm there with you, and yeah, like even with Knuckles too. 372 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:10,240 I I don't know. I I do like Idriss Alba. I think I 373 00:26:10,279 --> 00:26:14,000 think he's fantastic. Mm hmm. Am I crazy for just saying that his 374 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:15,680 voice, which just it just did not work for me, like at all 375 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,480 as the Knuckles voice. Maybe it's just because like I've experienced maybe in the 376 00:26:19,519 --> 00:26:23,079 games or like the old show, just like a different version of like a 377 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:30,000 Knuckles human voice or human voice English voice. I guess just like it's really 378 00:26:30,079 --> 00:26:34,400 not the voice that I would that I would want for my knuckles. You 379 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,000 know. Again, nothing against Idris, but I just think his voice is 380 00:26:37,039 --> 00:26:41,160 such a power to it that it just Yeah, that's that's Idriss Alba, 381 00:26:41,319 --> 00:26:45,680 like that's that's Tim Deel, like that's It's just there's certain people that their 382 00:26:45,759 --> 00:26:51,039 voice just totally cuts raight through no matter who they're trying to portray. And 383 00:26:51,079 --> 00:26:53,960 I think he has one of those voices for for you know, positives and 384 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:59,200 negatives. It's a great voice with with some power to it, but for 385 00:26:59,279 --> 00:27:02,079 an animated care like Knuckles, it just kind of takes me out of it, 386 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,559 Like it just it from that first episode, it was just like, 387 00:27:04,599 --> 00:27:08,720 Okay, that's Idress Alba under the voice of Knuckles, and it was just 388 00:27:08,759 --> 00:27:14,720 a little bit too grandiose for my liking. That's probably gonna sound very snobby, 389 00:27:14,759 --> 00:27:17,960 and there's gonna be people who are like, wow, I just Alba's 390 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:19,279 such a great voice, how can you think that? But no, for 391 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:23,160 me, it just it did not work at all. And uh, maybe 392 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:27,559 if the show was actually about Knuckles and we had most of the show with 393 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,960 Knuckles, maybe I would have got used to it. But I think it's 394 00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:36,400 just because he's like selectively in this show, which is crazy to me to 395 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,000 even say, because the show is fucking called Knuckles not Whipple, that it 396 00:27:40,079 --> 00:27:44,359 should be. But no, I for me personally, I was just not 397 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,240 a fan of the voice acting for Knuckles and yeah, sorry, I dress 398 00:27:48,319 --> 00:27:51,519 big fan of you, But no, it did not work for me at 399 00:27:51,559 --> 00:27:55,079 all here. But what do you think about that? I definitely didn't mind 400 00:27:55,079 --> 00:27:57,319 it. Actually, I liked it in the movie and I think it stood 401 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:02,000 it stood out here too. His voice and his tone really adds to the 402 00:28:02,039 --> 00:28:07,279 whole uh the for me, innocent humor, blind humor, I guess where 403 00:28:07,279 --> 00:28:12,599 he's just very serious in these situations and not really aware of what people are 404 00:28:14,519 --> 00:28:17,839 truly feeling around him, and I like that, and his voice just adds 405 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,680 to the warrior esque tone that he's trying to portray, if that makes any 406 00:28:21,759 --> 00:28:23,160 kind of sense. So I was definitely driving with it, and I thought 407 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:30,720 it worked for me quite quite well. Actually, yeah, like I feel 408 00:28:30,759 --> 00:28:33,039 like I did like it in the movie at the time, but then maybe 409 00:28:33,039 --> 00:28:37,839 there was just some time in between my last viewing of the second movie and 410 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,200 I just kind of forgot about it, and then I don't know, maybe 411 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,079 it's because he's not surrounded by like Sonic and Tails for a lot of this 412 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,799 like they are in the first episode, which that's probably my first or sorry, 413 00:28:48,799 --> 00:28:52,119 my probably my favorite episode because they not just because they're in it, 414 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,680 but just because of the setup, like like the idea of Knuckles, you 415 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,799 know, just trying to be like in this new home and like just just 416 00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:04,079 just settle into it, Like why is that show? Why is the show 417 00:29:04,119 --> 00:29:08,039 not about that? And like his adventures of just trying to figure out what 418 00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:14,039 it's like to live in in Green Hills and you know we just we we 419 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,799 kind of just park that and uh we fall away on how to be a 420 00:29:18,839 --> 00:29:25,759 good bowler. Yeah, just Wade. This one hurts me, man, 421 00:29:26,319 --> 00:29:29,200 Like this one really hurts me. I feel like Knuckles is just such a 422 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,920 badass character. They had amazing like posters and stuff for this show too. 423 00:29:33,799 --> 00:29:38,680 The effects looked fantastic, similar to how I like on the Halo reviews. 424 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,319 I kept saying, yeah, this show sucks, but at least, like 425 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,039 the action looks really good. I do think that it. It looks good 426 00:29:45,039 --> 00:29:52,279 across the board, even th our little goons with their there a kidne quill 427 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,559 weapons that they have. You got Kid Cutty with the fists, Like, 428 00:29:56,599 --> 00:30:00,160 I think all those effects look really good. It's just a damn shame that 429 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:07,119 it's just such a sidebar to Wade's Wade's adventure and his growth as a character. 430 00:30:07,519 --> 00:30:10,279 Yeah, no, I agree, just the moment they get into the 431 00:30:10,319 --> 00:30:14,680 action where he's imagining himself being super cool and then he pulls up in his 432 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,559 cop car and the cop car explodes and all this thought. Man, this 433 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,240 is the kind of humor we're getting. And he just sits there while the 434 00:30:19,279 --> 00:30:25,720 goons run out and like watch him, and then he blasts with his fist 435 00:30:25,759 --> 00:30:27,640 gauntlet through the window. I just all that kind of stuff, and like 436 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:32,920 he leaves the fist gauntlet on the floor and goes to hide and lets the 437 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,200 villain get the gauntlet and put it on. Ah. Just don't put that 438 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,119 guy against Thanos. Not a good choice, No, not at all. 439 00:30:41,279 --> 00:30:45,720 Oh my gosh, it was cool to see the Hound from Game of Thrones 440 00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:49,039 in here. Yeah. He was a good villain, I'd say, but 441 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,039 he died very very quick. There wasn't really much the last episode. Even 442 00:30:56,039 --> 00:30:59,839 though it was like that twenty five minute mark, it felt the freaking longest 443 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:03,799 because we had like the betrayal, we had the bowling tournament, we had 444 00:31:03,839 --> 00:31:07,119 the Hound coming in to fight, and the whole final boss battle, so 445 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:12,119 there was so much going on and I got another scene that I was kind 446 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:19,200 of chuckling and laughing at was when pistol Pete Whipple. You recognize that actor 447 00:31:21,039 --> 00:31:25,759 Princess Bride. Oh, that's who that is. Okay, I did recognize 448 00:31:25,799 --> 00:31:29,000 him. I didn't google, but I knew i'd seen him from something. 449 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,079 But I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing his last name right. But it's Carrie 450 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:37,279 Elvis. Elvis super charismatic, and I love seeing him in this role. 451 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:42,680 Just he's walking around like the fancy clothing and he's just winning at gambling and 452 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:47,400 everything, and he's just so full of himself. But that's where he gave 453 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:52,920 me gold Member vibes, where he's just the Austin Powers his dad. And 454 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,079 this is maybe where I feel like it's the Austin Powers, like gold Member 455 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,720 kind of movie blending in with this because he goes, he finds out, 456 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,880 he finds his dad, and his dad betrays him, which was just super 457 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,680 shitty, and then they end up bowling each other anyways in the tournament, 458 00:32:08,799 --> 00:32:14,400 which is crazy to think about. Uh yeah, just a whole bunch of 459 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,279 just a whole bunch of really weird inconsistencies and really poor story writing because the 460 00:32:19,359 --> 00:32:22,759 character development was not great, but he was charismatic as hell and I was 461 00:32:22,839 --> 00:32:28,880 enjoying that. Well it lasted. Yeah, Like I don't think it was 462 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:38,119 bad really trying to reach for a positive here like his outfit, I guess, 463 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:42,000 just like the whole betrayal thing, like it was just so obvious that 464 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:46,759 it was coming. Maybe maybe I'm wrong for thinking this, but it's just 465 00:32:46,799 --> 00:32:51,720 like man like it's it just shows how much of a fucking idiot weight is 466 00:32:51,759 --> 00:32:54,799 to just be like my father that's just betrayed my family and my mother, 467 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:59,480 like you know, like I just want to have this relationship with him, 468 00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:04,519 which I guess that's not an abnormal thing like a Fortunately I'm not someone in 469 00:33:04,599 --> 00:33:08,000 that in that realm that you know their father abandoned them, which I'm sure 470 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:14,240 that's something that maybe people have definitely aligned with that, Like doesn't matter if 471 00:33:14,319 --> 00:33:16,720 they could betray you, you do still at some point want to know like 472 00:33:16,759 --> 00:33:22,200 your father and like have that bond and relationship that you have been missing your 473 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,160 whole life. But just it just was so like he's literally a mustache, 474 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:31,559 totally villain because he has the look he's mustache. He talks, he talks 475 00:33:31,559 --> 00:33:36,039 like a mustache trillly villain, and then of course he plays exactly like a 476 00:33:36,079 --> 00:33:39,559 mustache totally villain. He betrays him and he just fucking wants to be Pistol 477 00:33:39,599 --> 00:33:45,200 Pete the Bowler, and it's just so over the top cartoony, which I 478 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:49,960 feel like, Okay, they're going for it, it should be funny for 479 00:33:50,039 --> 00:33:52,119 that reason, but it just it's not at all. It's just it did 480 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:58,759 not work for me at all. Yeah, Like, yeah, I just 481 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,960 I don't really care for that character at all. You mentioned yeah Sandor c 482 00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:06,200 again, I think that was his name, but the Hound from Game of 483 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,800 Thrones. I thought he was like, actually really good in this, like 484 00:34:09,119 --> 00:34:14,400 all the scenes that he had he was probably just channeling his his hound isms, 485 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:19,440 but he just was intimidating. I loved his blacksmith type character look when 486 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,280 he had like the blacksmith apron with the long beard, like he just he 487 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:29,159 definitely had the look. But also like when he even when he was on 488 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:35,599 like the Whiplash machine, you know, channeling channeling the Iron Man too character 489 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,599 in the end when he had those whips, like, I thought he looked 490 00:34:38,599 --> 00:34:43,519 really good too when he was delivering his lines. But yeah, no, 491 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:45,679 they don't do too much with that character. He's kind of just in the 492 00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:49,719 background for a lot of it, and as you mentioned, he's just he 493 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,400 goes out really really quickly. Yeah, like crushed to death, Like fuck, 494 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:59,239 what a way to go. You have like knuckles like fine in the 495 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:04,880 air when he does like the the flames of disaster move and Wade just like 496 00:35:05,559 --> 00:35:07,639 shoots off his his his fist thing. At first, I was like, 497 00:35:07,679 --> 00:35:12,800 man, he's gonna fucking hit knuckles. Knuckles is like he's like looping around 498 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,400 to go back to the hound and then fucking Wade's gonna just deck on. 499 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,519 But of course he doesn't. It's like a perfect snipe to take out the 500 00:35:19,519 --> 00:35:24,159 globe there. That's perfect. Yeah, So, how how did you feel 501 00:35:24,159 --> 00:35:28,960 about? I guess kind of like detouring away from that cato of bullying match. 502 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,360 Actually, one more thing on the bulling match. The announcers they mentioned, 503 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:35,320 uh talking about how like, oh an alien has has appeared and and 504 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:39,519 whatnot, and then yeah, now was that supposed to be shadow? Do 505 00:35:39,559 --> 00:35:44,920 you think is that what they're alluding to because he's interesting in like held up 506 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:50,320 in a facility based on that yeah scene, Uh, well, they said 507 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:58,280 it happened before at a bowling tournament, right, that'd be kind of well, 508 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,679 that's I don't like. I don't think. I don't like that we're 509 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:05,800 centering the Sonic Universe around these bowling events. I really don't like that. 510 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,840 I'm hoping. I mean, you're probably right, because like, why else 511 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:13,920 would they say that without actually saying someone's name because they mentioned that, you 512 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,880 know, that alien wasn't red. I guess Shadow is red to an extent, 513 00:36:17,119 --> 00:36:22,199 but he's bastly black. You might be onto something there, and that 514 00:36:22,199 --> 00:36:27,320 that makes me a little more upset. I don't like this bowling catalyst. 515 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:34,440 Why does every big event have to be said around these the bowling I'm curious 516 00:36:34,519 --> 00:36:38,639 if they'll if they'll answer that, And maybe it won't be so bad if 517 00:36:39,159 --> 00:36:43,559 it is like that event that they're talking about, but they don't really go 518 00:36:43,639 --> 00:36:45,480 into full depths on like the actual bowling competitions, just like, yeah, 519 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:52,239 he did come to Earth in nineteen seventy four. I still probably won't like 520 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,559 that because it will remind me of this show. Yeah. Yeah, good 521 00:36:55,599 --> 00:36:59,559 catch though, because I definitely just kind of thought that was a throwaway line. 522 00:37:00,079 --> 00:37:01,639 That's what. Yeah, I'm just speculating that it probably has some tie 523 00:37:01,639 --> 00:37:06,039 into the movie, even though it's very vague and one that'll just go for 524 00:37:06,039 --> 00:37:08,920 people's heads. But the the other character that I feel like was just he 525 00:37:09,039 --> 00:37:15,800 got a whole episode dedicated to himself and it was a complete waste of time. 526 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:23,480 Was God, what is what was his actual name? Oh yeah, 527 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:29,480 Jacksonclair bounty hunter. He had the long hair. He was Wade's friend. 528 00:37:30,639 --> 00:37:37,039 Uh, we got a whole episode where he basically last sus Wade and drags 529 00:37:37,119 --> 00:37:42,760 him for who knows how long, tasers him and then throws him in this 530 00:37:43,079 --> 00:37:47,119 weird cage where it's like arrows pointing down and says like you've been caught by 531 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:52,559 Jack Sinclair bounty Hunter and the cage is like electrocuted and whatnot. And he's 532 00:37:52,599 --> 00:37:55,519 writing in a hummer with this little girl and her parents to the bowling champion, 533 00:37:55,559 --> 00:37:59,920 Like it's just this is what kind of writing is this? It's fun. 534 00:38:00,199 --> 00:38:04,840 I feel like the first time I actually laughed in the show was that 535 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,360 opening when he's like, it's gonna be a good day and then he just 536 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,519 gets last last oed and just dragged down the street. I think it was 537 00:38:10,599 --> 00:38:14,480 the shock humor, Like I just wasn't expecting it and then it was just 538 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,760 so fucking random, which a lot of the show is, but that one 539 00:38:17,159 --> 00:38:21,440 it actually got me. I kind of chuckled a little bit. It ended, 540 00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:23,039 you know, once Jackson Clair actually had him, because then they do 541 00:38:23,079 --> 00:38:29,039 this taze thing and I'm not like super nitpicky when it comes like continuity type 542 00:38:29,079 --> 00:38:30,880 things, but they like tase them. As soon as they tas them, 543 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:35,760 he like puts his arms up in the air and he's like oh, and 544 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,519 then the next shot his arms are like as if it's like almost would be 545 00:38:38,599 --> 00:38:42,760 a realistic tase, Like he's just like stiff and his arms are down by 546 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,679 his side. But it's just like, this is fucking garbage. Get this 547 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,519 shit off my television right now. That's how pissed off I was in those 548 00:38:49,559 --> 00:38:53,159 moments. But uh yeah, and actually, I you know, to admit, 549 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:57,320 I actually laughed at another part of that moment. That was when they 550 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,599 do the duel and he drives off and he's like, you gotta have a 551 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,960 vehicle. You just can't hear him. I actually chuckled at that, and 552 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,400 I was a little bit upset with myself from chucklay back, like this is 553 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,000 so fucking stupid, but this is actually kind of funny because, yeah, 554 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:15,039 that happens so much in shows where they're like thirty meters away from each other 555 00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:19,719 and they're like just just talking, like probably quieter than how I'm talking right 556 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,400 now, and then they can just hear each other perfectly fine, But in 557 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:28,000 that instance, they couldn't hear each other. And uh, hate to admit 558 00:39:28,079 --> 00:39:31,679 it, but it actually got me that that was actually quite funny. Well, 559 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:37,199 I'll share some of my thoughts right after this ad break and we're back, 560 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,280 So I, yeah, I kind of chuckled a few things with this 561 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:45,920 scene too, with the duel, but the fact that like he challenges him 562 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,800 to a duel, like again, it's so it's unrealistic because Wade like blasts 563 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,599 through the roof of this cart as the vehicle is moving down the freeway and 564 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,920 lands, and it's like, is he a superhero? Where did this power 565 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:00,239 come from? I don't get it? But he lands all ca usually and 566 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:07,000 then he challenges Jackson Clair to a duel, and so Jackson Clair like does 567 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,880 a backflip up onto the roof of the Hummer limo where the motorcycle is, 568 00:40:12,119 --> 00:40:16,239 and he pulls out dual katanas and it's like these were forged the shop blades 569 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:20,119 on the earth and like throws one and it lends right next to Wade. 570 00:40:20,119 --> 00:40:22,239 It's like, okay, we're really getting cuckoo eyed here. He rides the 571 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,119 motorbike off the hummer and that's when, yeah, you're part here when he 572 00:40:25,199 --> 00:40:30,920 zooms away in a vehicle and then Wade gets the fucking little kid's bike, 573 00:40:30,559 --> 00:40:36,639 cuts off Jackson Claire's hair, makes him stripped down and then he just like 574 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,480 runs off like kind of crying with his hair cut off. And then like 575 00:40:39,559 --> 00:40:45,199 the mom was like the mom of Little Girl Sluzy Suzi was like, yeah, 576 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,599 kill kill him or execute him or finish him or whatnot. And you 577 00:40:47,639 --> 00:40:52,840 got the weird scene of Jackson Clair in the limo with the parents and making 578 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:57,480 them like forcibly like play karaoke like it's just weird. Yeah, shit, 579 00:40:58,039 --> 00:41:01,199 that was that was hard to get through. That was like a nearly fast 580 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:05,599 forward type moment, which did happen to me a couple times throughout this show. 581 00:41:05,639 --> 00:41:08,400 I will admit there was a couple of moments maybe the musical episode that 582 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:12,599 was that was one I actually had to fast forward through. I was like, 583 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,519 Nope, not doing this, Let's get out of here. That was 584 00:41:15,559 --> 00:41:21,480 a rough That was a rough one. Can you get Jackson Claire just being 585 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,840 one of the Owls people? Whatnot? Like I can get that they were 586 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:29,599 trying to go for something magical here, but that in the first Sonic movie 587 00:41:29,639 --> 00:41:32,079 when you get that flashback of young Sonic and you get them just like him 588 00:41:32,119 --> 00:41:37,000 in his world and you get the Owls and like the you get all the 589 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,559 different like actual characters. They should have done that for this flashback when instid 590 00:41:40,559 --> 00:41:46,800 of a Wade Whipple wearing a Wild Knuckles costume re enacting this whole thing. 591 00:41:47,119 --> 00:41:52,320 Uh oh yeah, no, the not a fan of the musical sequence. 592 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,599 I just yeah, I wasn't a fan of the overall choice of just have 593 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,159 this all this focus on way, Like why do you not have Knuckles go 594 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:06,199 through a similar type moment like that since the show is called Knuckles and maybe 595 00:42:06,519 --> 00:42:09,239 maybe he needs to find some inner strength, But no, let's just focus 596 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:14,639 on the Bowler, who I guarantee is not gonna be a fucking main character 597 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,320 in the next movie. So like, what a fucking waste of time that 598 00:42:16,599 --> 00:42:22,119 was? God damn I hate that. Um yeah, nothing really else to 599 00:42:22,159 --> 00:42:25,719 say on that. I'll show another another moment that actually made me laugh. 600 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:32,719 I'm trying to go off my positive list here when we have I think it's 601 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:38,519 episode five, when we have Wade confront his father and he has Knuckles in 602 00:42:38,559 --> 00:42:43,559 his ear. Most of it didn't, you know, like most of it 603 00:42:43,639 --> 00:42:46,280 wasn't really working for humor wise, whether it was just like Knuckles deadpan, 604 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:50,000 like very literal way of speaking, and then Wade was copying it. But 605 00:42:50,519 --> 00:42:52,639 it caught me when he just was all of a sudden, He's like, 606 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:57,400 what is that magnificent thing that I'm looking at? And like when you actually 607 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,719 see it's literally just Knuckles looking at like the cost echidna. And another moment 608 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,639 that was just not what I was expecting at all, and it actually just 609 00:43:05,639 --> 00:43:07,199 made me laugh out loud. I thought it was I thought it was great. 610 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,760 I thought that was a really funny moment. There's another moment in the 611 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:16,079 in the finale episode when Knuckles is at the bar just chilling and like a 612 00:43:16,159 --> 00:43:20,360 dude in a blue costume comes up. Doesn't quite look like a hedgehog at 613 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,480 all. I guess the the other Knuckles one wasn't quite an echidna either, 614 00:43:23,599 --> 00:43:29,440 But yeah, no, that it was just just a couple of funny moments. 615 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:35,000 I think specifically when Knuckles first sees the guy in the red costume and 616 00:43:35,039 --> 00:43:37,559 he's like, what are you supposed to be? He's like, I'm an 617 00:43:37,559 --> 00:43:43,920 echidna. He's like, oh nice from Alabama. Go kidnas. Like it 618 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,440 was just so fucking stupid, But I don't know, maybe it made me 619 00:43:46,519 --> 00:43:50,800 laugh because it was actually Knuckles the one interacting with it, not Wade trying 620 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,840 to be over the top and ridiculous. And see, I think that's one 621 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:57,079 of the things that this show, well it obviously needed, but how much 622 00:43:57,119 --> 00:44:00,159 more successful this show would have been if it had more of that is sprinkled 623 00:44:00,199 --> 00:44:06,840 throughout the show consistently instead of the forced humor coming off of Wade and Wade's 624 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,320 interactions with other characters. Like if I had Knuckles interacting with Jackson Clair, 625 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:14,320 that seemed would have been much better. I would it would have been totally 626 00:44:14,559 --> 00:44:17,880 more kelliable, Like great, So it's just missed opportunities, it really really 627 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,800 is. I yeah, Like, is the reason why they just they didn't 628 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,480 want to pay to like animate Knuckles for an entire show? Is that why? 629 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,360 If that's the case, do a four episode show, do a three 630 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:35,880 episode short series on just knuckles trying to fit in with this new world or 631 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:42,599 find his home, like a big apologies to what's his name? I had 632 00:44:42,639 --> 00:44:45,639 the name Adam Pally for kind of just shitting on your performance here, but 633 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:51,199 hopefully it wasn't all you. I'm really blaming the writers of this and just 634 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:55,599 the overall showrunners and everything it just because it clearly isn't just this guy, 635 00:44:55,840 --> 00:45:00,599 because I didn't like pretty much any of the human characters at all. I 636 00:45:00,599 --> 00:45:05,079 love Kid Kid Cutty's music, but man, he was pretty fucking bad and 637 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:10,320 the show Uh if you know that was the guy with the fists, Okay, 638 00:45:10,519 --> 00:45:15,639 okay, Uh, Christopher Lloyd was actually in this as uh pack packa 639 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:22,079 kamac the like the elder. Did you catch that? Oh you froze or 640 00:45:22,119 --> 00:45:29,800 I froze? One of us froze. Uh so I'm gonna say you didn't 641 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,719 catch that, and uh, just keep moving on. Then I thought he 642 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:40,599 was I thought he was great. What else can I say here? Yeah, 643 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:50,400 Jackson Claire already covered Gary in s to Claire, Oh there you are, 644 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,679 all right, Christopher Lloyd. That was such a funny pause moment. 645 00:45:54,159 --> 00:45:58,920 I was like, Christopher Lloyd is in here. As uh pack Aamac. 646 00:45:59,119 --> 00:46:00,800 I'm like, Tater, what do you think about that? And you were 647 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:06,639 just I just didn't care. Apparently that was hype. Though I love Christopher 648 00:46:06,679 --> 00:46:14,880 Lloyd. Yeah, he's great. I really don't have any other It's unfortunate. 649 00:46:15,639 --> 00:46:19,360 My last note actually, because you reminded me of that character Pack of 650 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,480 my Lac. Very weird how he was they were trying to do like the 651 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,119 ghost thing, because yeah, he like can touch knuckles or hug him, 652 00:46:25,119 --> 00:46:28,480 but then he couldn't go through the ceiling as he's a ghost. I don't 653 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:32,679 know. It was weird, but they're trying to make it humorous. I 654 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:38,239 got nothing else to add aside from just my pure disappointment in this show and 655 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,960 that I would not recommend it. I told Travis, like, even on 656 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:45,719 a rainy day, you don't need to watch this with your kids. It's 657 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:49,079 not really even four kids. I don't know. I tried to rope them 658 00:46:49,079 --> 00:46:52,960 in, you know, saying that we delayed the episode for him. It's 659 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,960 it's a truly awful show, and he already hates musicals, and of course 660 00:46:57,159 --> 00:47:00,280 in this truly awful show, there's a musical sequence in it that, uh, 661 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:05,599 that's like the quadruple whammy. Jravis hates musicals. Yeah, wow, 662 00:47:06,039 --> 00:47:07,559 he probably said that. I don't think I'm putting words in his mouth, 663 00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:14,000 but he always says it's just like the like the heightened reality type, noess 664 00:47:14,119 --> 00:47:16,119 of it. He can never get behind, like it just doesn't really jive 665 00:47:16,199 --> 00:47:20,760 with him, which doesn't make sense because he loves Yeah, that's Lane, 666 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,480 I think is the exception. But like I love any other musical. Yeah, 667 00:47:24,679 --> 00:47:30,239 it's good. It's curious, curious, but maybe should ask him next 668 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:31,960 time we see him so that I'm not just putting words in his mouth. 669 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:37,840 But I'm pretty sure he's not a fan of musicals, right. I pulled 670 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:45,159 up the cast list and Paul Sheer he was one of the broadcasters for the 671 00:47:45,199 --> 00:47:50,760 bowling competition. Really, his character's name was Gary in Sinclair. You think 672 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,800 he's relating to Jackson calle Man. I don't know. Did they mention anything 673 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:57,400 about that in the show? Did I miss that? No? I mean 674 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,559 I don't think so. Okay, it's definitely not Laura. I'm going to 675 00:48:00,599 --> 00:48:04,119 look up after this review. I can tell you that, yeah, yeah, 676 00:48:04,159 --> 00:48:13,800 that's a that's fair. I will not either. Closing thoughts. Closing 677 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:19,199 thoughts, I regret signing up for this review. It was truly a slog 678 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,960 to get through. I don't think I would have made through or made it 679 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,360 through if they were like hour long episodes, or if this was like a 680 00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:29,960 twelve episode season. I don't think I would have been able to do it. 681 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,679 Honestly, I think I was right about by episode two. I felt 682 00:48:34,679 --> 00:48:37,159 bad because you had watched it kind of before me, and I was like, 683 00:48:37,199 --> 00:48:39,039 why did I not start this like Friday so then I could just like 684 00:48:39,119 --> 00:48:43,639 right away be like Taylor. Now I can't do it. This show is 685 00:48:43,679 --> 00:48:49,760 too awful. But major bummer, major major bummer. I think that I 686 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,119 don't even really want to say there's potential with the show. I think that 687 00:48:52,119 --> 00:48:55,039 they should have just burnt the whole script and really rethink what they were trying 688 00:48:55,039 --> 00:49:00,920 to do here, and if budgetary made us just focus on Wade, this 689 00:49:01,039 --> 00:49:06,239 human character, do a two episode, do a fucking one episode, or 690 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,280 do a complete short film on just Knuckles trying to fit in here, release 691 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:14,079 it on Paramount Plus, animate it beautifully and just just let it be. 692 00:49:14,199 --> 00:49:17,679 I think that would have been such a better avenue, because this isn't just 693 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:21,480 a forgettable show. This is a show that I'm gonna truly go out of 694 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:27,920 my way to tell people to not watch or or just yeah this. Hopefully 695 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,800 I forget about it. I don't want to be living on with hate in 696 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:35,079 my mind. But I truly hate the show. I think I'll give it. 697 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,400 I think I'll give it a one out of ten, not zero out 698 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:42,039 of ten. There was enough in there, but yeah, I like, 699 00:49:42,119 --> 00:49:44,639 this is definitely one of the worst shows I've seen. I mean, I 700 00:49:44,679 --> 00:49:50,400 mentioned it. It made me like Halo more than what was shown there. 701 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,920 Yeah, no, I apologize anyone. If you made it this far of 702 00:49:55,039 --> 00:49:58,559 us just ranting on this episode and you did like it, make sure to 703 00:49:58,639 --> 00:50:02,199 let us know because I want to what youth saw that I didn't and who 704 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:06,119 knows, Like, like, maybe it it is just certain people aligned with 705 00:50:06,159 --> 00:50:12,280 the Wade character, Like did you ever see macgroober? Oh god I was. 706 00:50:13,519 --> 00:50:15,800 I didn't like that. Yeah, I forgot, I forget, I 707 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:19,800 forget the lad's name that was the lead in that. But uh, like 708 00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,320 I like that type of humor. It reminds me of this where it's just 709 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:29,119 super goofy, which I sometimes enjoy. But like, I didn't like mcgroober. 710 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,079 I didn't like this, I don't know. It's and like the like 711 00:50:32,199 --> 00:50:37,280 mcgruber is is for like mature audiences more so than what this would be I 712 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,639 would imagine. But just the like the super goofiness was just it was way 713 00:50:40,639 --> 00:50:45,719 too much for me. I just couldnot handle it. But uh, yeah, 714 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:47,920 so I do not recommend the show, and I really really really hope 715 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,599 that the next movie is much better. I am hopeful just for the fact 716 00:50:53,639 --> 00:50:59,039 that it is a full movie. So I think we're not going to be 717 00:50:59,079 --> 00:51:02,960 following the adventure of Wade or James Marsden. I think his character name was 718 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:08,760 Tom in the movies, So I don't want to like think that this show 719 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:13,760 would deter me from it. It's just this is what we got for the 720 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:19,079 Paramount show, and uh it's a big, big bummer. Yeah, so 721 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,920 I feel like we're pretty similar on a lot of these thoughts here. I 722 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:28,280 don't enjoy this show. I'm already telling people, don't waste your time with 723 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,239 this. I think that it's a missed opportunity. They should have been focusing 724 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:34,280 on Knuckles much much more as a character, and they could have really hit 725 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,199 some notes really really high if they did. Just that, I think that 726 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,679 there was so many things that just leave me asking questions, and so many 727 00:51:40,679 --> 00:51:44,519 things that it just don't make sense. Is this a kid shows? This 728 00:51:44,559 --> 00:51:49,079 an adult show. Certain jokes that just don't fit in what they're trying to 729 00:51:49,119 --> 00:51:52,000 do, and just total acts of randomness. I think your mcgroober comment is 730 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:59,480 very spot on. So overall, I'm gonna give this show probably ah again, 731 00:51:59,639 --> 00:52:02,920 some things some really really low rankings, but like I'd probably go uh 732 00:52:04,519 --> 00:52:07,880 two out of ten to be honest, I there's nothing pulled me back. 733 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:13,559 I'm giving it two points because there was some kookiness that I really I laughed 734 00:52:13,599 --> 00:52:16,519 at and I thought it was it was okay, and the stuff with Knuckles 735 00:52:16,679 --> 00:52:21,480 and his fight scenes, I enjoyed that a lot. But for the most 736 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:23,960 part, there's not much going on here. The human character stuff isn't the 737 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:28,079 same as what they were doing with the movies, and this is just too 738 00:52:28,199 --> 00:52:31,840 quirky crazy that it's it's so far fetched that I wasn't wasn't enjoying it. 739 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:36,320 I like the quirky craziness that they were doing with Robotnik in the first and 740 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,480 second movies. I think those were a lot more in line. And yeah, 741 00:52:38,519 --> 00:52:43,920 this is just this is something else. So I don't recommend watching the 742 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,039 show. That's all I'm gonna say. And uh, yeah, there you 743 00:52:47,079 --> 00:52:55,159 have it comes up. Yeah, so yeah, unless there's anything else you 744 00:52:55,199 --> 00:52:59,199 have, that's it. We're gonna we're gonna close it off there and go 745 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,320 cray myself to sleep because this is pretty depressing. Don't watch this in the 746 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:06,360 morning either, if you if you are not convinced with what we've said and 747 00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:08,920 you're planning to watch it, don't watch it in the morning, and don't 748 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:15,039 watch it an night. Yeah. I definitely passed out watching this one Sunday 749 00:53:15,039 --> 00:53:16,400 evening. I was like, Oh, I'm gonna finish the show. It's 750 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:19,559 gonna be great. Next thing I know. It was like three in the 751 00:53:19,559 --> 00:53:22,239 morning. Oh, didn't even get through a full episode. I'm like, 752 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,519 man, this sucks because now I have to watch this tomorrow, Like like 753 00:53:25,559 --> 00:53:30,280 that was the worst part about it. It's like, gotta take more time 754 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,280 out of my day to watch this instead of just powering through it. But 755 00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:36,519 that's a horrible feeling. Like at three am and you're not even finished through 756 00:53:36,519 --> 00:53:38,639 the Knuckles show. Oh man, Sunday too, like going into a Monday, 757 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:42,760 I'd like get up, brush my teeth, and like fucking put dishes 758 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:49,719 away, like I was just so bummed. Oh that's horrible. Yeah, 759 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:53,719 all right, Well we'll be back with our X Men ninety seven review, 760 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:57,800 and I will be back.
