I'm hoping we were out of like the forty and fifty degree degree 6 00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:27.160 days and we're into those sixties and seventies. That's really as a man larger 7 00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:30.879 than the average man, I like to live in those sixteen seventy degree days. 8 00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:33.439 I'm cool with the eighties. Let's we hit the nineties. I'm like, 9 00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:36.159 we're doing too much and mac before we get into this dump, let 10 00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:40.119 me quickly say this.

If if you say g oo, they're gonna throw 23 00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:42.480 you out. So once again, Learning Express in Bedford News Dub Weekend, 24 00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:48.120 Box Office MAC Guardians at the Galaxy Volume three doing what it's supposed to Chris 25 00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:52.680 Pratt v. Chris Pratt. He dethrones Chris Pratt's Mario. You know how 26 00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.480 you fight fire with fire? You know how you fight Chris Pratt more Chris 27 00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:00.599 Pratt. Yeah, it's funny. We talked about it, you know, 28 00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.040 I fucking completely forgot that it was in Mario. We talked about it when 29 00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:07.400 we were reviewing Guardians from twenty fourteen. Yeah, that was the same year 30 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:09.680 he had the Lego movie Massive year for him two of the three or four 31 00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:13.319 biggest movies of the year then, and he's gonna do it again this year. 32 00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.039 It's pretty impressive, it is. And speaking of Mario mac News don't 33 00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:22.840 finished second in this past weekend. It has been in theaters for roughly thirty 34 00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:29.000 days domestic, it's made about five hundred million dollars worldwide over a billion now. 35 00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:34.080 And let's compare it to another movie that's been out for thirty years, 36 00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:40.439 and that is the Bobby Hawks Johnny Legs Mario Brothers movie, which in its 37 00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:46.879 entire you know, life at the Theater, has made under forty million on 38 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:51.400 a budget of about forty eight and that's not including advertising, so it probably 39 00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:54.000 costs about one hundred bucks, not one hundred bucks, one hundred million dollars 40 00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:59.400 to make that. One might call this one a bit more of a success. 41 00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.520 You know, as I'm thinking about that original Super Mario Brothers movie, 42 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:06.719 I watched it quite a bit as a kid, but I'm pretty sure the 43 00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:10.400 first time I saw it was like on cable TV or on like fucking upn 44 00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:14.639 or some shows I feel like TBS, yeah, something like that, and 45 00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:16.680 I remember thinking like, Wow, there's a Super Mario Brothers movie, and 46 00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:19.680 I didn't know anything about it. And then you watch it and you're like, 47 00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:21.960 oh, yeah, it's got nothing to do with the video game. 48 00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.759 But if he asked Johnny Legs, that's the one to go with. I 49 00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:30.039 mean, I'll tell you that movie. There's I don't know, there's probably 50 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:34.360 like eight to ten really bad movies I watch as a kid that I still 51 00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:37.680 really like. That's one of them. I don't know why I like it. 52 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:39.919 I have no reason to like that movie. No one has a reason 53 00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:46.039 to like that movie. That movie's objectively terrible when I actually liked the movie 54 00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:52.199 back, I have news. I have horrible news. The Writers Guild of 55 00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:58.520 America is on strike, and that is not good for our entertainment. YEP 56 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:03.280 as a podcast that often talks about television and movies, more some movies, 57 00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:08.400 which is a little less affected by this, because the thing with movies is 58 00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:13.240 it's not as ongoing of a process writing as it is with a television show. 59 00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.800 Typically, when the script's done, it's done, and then you know, 60 00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.560 you make some edits along the way, and movies are two three years 61 00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:23.120 in the making, where shows are getting made every year roughly, or seasons 62 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:28.160 of shows. So TV definitely gets affected more more by this than than movies. 63 00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:31.480 At the beginning of the month, I am such a union guy through 64 00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:34.319 and through, so I'm totally on board with this same over here, we're 65 00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:41.600 hey, We're a union podcast. And to further like underscore how important it 66 00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:44.879 is to support this. The last time they let the hack writers write, 67 00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:48.399 they ruined, like every good show on television Lost, I think that was 68 00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:53.279 season three or four of Loss. That what completely often rails, same thing 69 00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:58.000 of prison Break, although that wasn't as good as Lost. Heroes went from 70 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.279 maybe the best show on TV to the worst piece of shit you've ever seen. 71 00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:06.920 Friday Night Lights they had that that story with um Tara and uh fucking 72 00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:11.240 Jesse Plemon's killing a guy that they just glossed over at the end of the 73 00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:15.439 season. Also, all the late night talk circuits got fucked up because they 74 00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:17.839 had to write their own stuff. And if you watch some of Conan stuff 75 00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:21.959 during that time, it's hilarious because he's like, look, the writers write 76 00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:25.680 everything for me, so whatever you see here is not gonna be good. 77 00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:32.120 He had a full segment one time where he was spinning his wedding ring inception 78 00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:36.759 style. Yeah, yeah, so I And if you're if you want to 79 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:43.439 know the main the leading issues here at the forefront of this is now that 80 00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:48.439 streaming has become so wildly successful and really has taken over for broadcast television for 81 00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:51.680 the most part, other than I mean even like HBO that's not even broadcast 82 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:56.879 TV. So, you know, we we have all these old school you 83 00:05:56.920 --> 00:06:00.560 know, contracts or ideas that are built in, and now all these shows 84 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.160 are blowing up on streaming. But the problem with these streaming shows is they 85 00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:08.560 have no royalties built in. Yeah, so there's nothing for syndication all that 86 00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:12.319 stuff. Right, So all these writers that were making X, Y and 87 00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:15.199 Z off of syndication, they don't get that with these streaming shows. So 88 00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:19.879 they're trying to fight and change change that. Also, you know, with 89 00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:25.959 inflation on yeah, it's it's a living wage with inflation, which right, 90 00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.959 that's usually eight dot. To get too far into union stuff, that's usually 91 00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:31.560 what we ask for. It's like two or three bucks. It's not like 92 00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:35.120 give me a million dollars right now, which I would take if they wanted 93 00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:38.399 to offer it to me. But it's like nice now, we're just looking 94 00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:42.279 for a little raise because that's how the world works. It is interesting though 95 00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:45.639 that within you know, so the last time this strike happened was what two 96 00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:47.199 thousand and nine, maybe two thousand and eight, I think it was seven. 97 00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:53.399 Yeah, in that range, streaming like wasn't a thing then Netflix existed, 98 00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:57.680 Um, but we were using Netflix by mail. We were getting discs 99 00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:00.480 in the mail. So it's just it's time for them to update that to 100 00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:04.639 current times and really fairly assess how those writers should be paid. So that 101 00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:10.720 makes sense. The most notable show so far that announced that they've halted production 102 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.959 and Stranger Things five, which totally doesn't affect us because we waited what three 103 00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:23.279 years or Stranger Things for anyways, so we're used to that. We'll see 104 00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:25.560 though, we'll see if this doesn't get settled quickly, you'll see a lot 105 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:30.439 of the best shows in television halt production or stop production altogether. Movies they're 106 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.800 moving that way to go well before you get to that movie. Also, 107 00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:38.040 this is a podcast that is written by union writers, so we're gonna have 108 00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:46.240 a real issue here. We're gonna go from unfunny to really unfunny. Can 109 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:50.279 you imagine a movie that's being halted in that is Blade once again? Yep, 110 00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:54.920 So that's the most notable one I saw. I'm sure that they're again. 111 00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:57.439 They'll be announcing these over the next couple of weeks. Movies that have 112 00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:03.079 stopped production. This is notable course, because it's one of the bigger MCU 113 00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.120 properties that we've been waiting on for a couple of years now, you know, 114 00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:11.079 ever since they introduced mehrschela Ali as the titular character Blade. It's also 115 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:18.199 notable because they just added True Detective creator Nick Pitzelatto as the lead writer, 116 00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:24.079 which marks the reunion between him and mahrschel Ali as well. So that really 117 00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:26.759 stinks. It stinks that I'm like movies that tap slight delays, you know, 118 00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:31.839 Okay, that's fine, but they've had such trouble getting the production off 119 00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:35.039 the ground for Blade in the first place, that I'm a little worried about. 120 00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.399 Oh I forgot to mention this. During the writer stuff as well, 121 00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:43.159 a lot of them are having fun needling or poking at Jenna Ortega, who 122 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.080 after Wednesday said, oh, I rewrote most of my lines, and they're 123 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:48.559 all like, well, why aren't you out here picketing with us, you 124 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:56.559 know, miss writer. Uh, that's that's a case of an actor doing 125 00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:00.320 too much and also most likely lying, well, sure, yeah, no, 126 00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:05.039 she's no doubt lying also, like I feel like in her head she's 127 00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:09.080 read the line she's read the scene and maybe she'll change the the order of 128 00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:13.080 the words or change it slightly. But the idea was there from the writers, 129 00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:16.320 so it's not her idea on the line or the dialogue. It's still 130 00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:18.399 the writers that wrote. And then she's like, I created Wednesday, Adam, 131 00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:24.279 this is a character that I made up just last week. There's doubt 132 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:33.919 comapp to join Mortal Kombat too as Johnny Cage. You know what, I 133 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.960 have liked Carl Urban and just about everything he's ever done, So I am 134 00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:39.919 here for him to get kooky, you know, that's a that's a good 135 00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:43.039 word for him, Kukie in Mortal Kombat too. Yeah, I mean, 136 00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:48.080 I don't know how much I love the casting or but also I don't I 137 00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:52.000 don't like love Moral Kombat as a concept. So do whatever you want. 138 00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:56.360 Just have it be as fun as the first one. It's combat to mortally 139 00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:00.919 wounded exactly like get as cheesy and stupid, but as the first one, 140 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:11.000 Yes, agreed, fatal What was the line lawless victory finish? Those are 141 00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:18.600 the lines that you would have gotten if there were no writers. Why did 142 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:26.679 people just start making noises? Now? Also, and I thought about this 143 00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:30.320 because I know that Dorik has a Hall of fame. Um, at what 144 00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:33.639 point does Carl Urban get consideration? Good question, because he's been in a 145 00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:39.080 lot of Doric properties. He's been in what free Marvel movies, now movies, 146 00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:45.519 he has been in uh you know the Boys. He has been in 147 00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:50.320 dread. Oh oh call yeah. And this is all I gonna add to 148 00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:58.919 it, speaking of dread, speaking of alliteration, news dump, we don't 149 00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:03.480 have any writers. Guy fucked, We are porked. Dune Part two, 150 00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:09.080 also known as Tune. The trailer has come out and it picks up right 151 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:13.440 after the first one. Yes, uh, we see Timmy Shall's riding that 152 00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:18.360 sandworm in this which apparently is gonna be He's got a cowboy hat on of 153 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:22.519 the movie. Yeah, I uh, it's Beetlejuice. I can't say I'm 154 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:26.960 worried about this movie because Denis Villeneuve is like the best director on the planet. 155 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.120 Yeah, but I'm a little worried I'm gonna be let down by like 156 00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:33.919 the conclusion of this movie. Yeah, but you got Elvis in this movie 157 00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:37.039 though, Yeah, that's true. Austin Butler as a naked mole rat. 158 00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:39.159 And I was also thinking to myself, like is he gonna have the Elvis 159 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:43.440 voice because last year he kind of couldn't shake it. Yeah, that's true, 160 00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:48.200 he got stuck in character too long. I am looking forward to this 161 00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:50.039 though the honest with the trailer didn't like make it move at all for me, 162 00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.440 But I liked so much the setup in the first movie. Yes that 163 00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:56.919 I'm hoping that they land the plane. Also, I joked around a lot 164 00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.639 about this during the first one. You know, Hey, I'm gonna watch 165 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:03.559 it on my cell phone because it's on HBO Max and that's the way the 166 00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:07.879 creators wanted you to see it. I am looking forward to seeing this on 167 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:09.519 a big screen. That's fair as well, yep, because I watched the 168 00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:13.320 other one at home. I watched it on my phone while on the Peloton 169 00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:22.279 News Dope. Will Farrell is creating a golf show based off the PGA Live 170 00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.320 drama. So Will Farrell has not had a big hit in a while, 171 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:33.159 so we do have to sort of recognize that. However, because there's been 172 00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.200 so much drama in the golf world the last couple of years, and you 173 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.240 know, with the Keepka and d Shambo stuff, I think that this could 174 00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:45.600 end up being pretty funny and because golfers and pro golfers inherently are like pretty 175 00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:48.879 cunty. I think that you could get good humor out of this, and 176 00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:52.200 with the new otches of rules and some guys that are big rules guys over 177 00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:56.960 some guys that don't care, there's a chance for this to be successful. 178 00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:00.240 But again, it's it's been a bit since Farrell's had a hit. Let 179 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:05.200 me ask you when was his last sports comedy? Oh, because I feel 180 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.559 like his sports comedies have a better hit rate. Question mark, he had 181 00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:13.919 Talladega Knights and oh six Blades of Glory what two years maybe later? Or 182 00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.080 Blades of Glory might have been just before or just after? It was after 183 00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:22.679 Napoleon Dynamite No. Four so huh. Kicking and Screaming I think was oh 184 00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.360 three, Kicking and Screaming was before Talladega Knights. This Jackie Moon might be 185 00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:31.279 the last one, oh, which was the worst but maybe the funniest first 186 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:37.000 five minutes true, and it is a decent enough character Jackie Moon. Yeah, 187 00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:41.240 yeah, you're right, you know what, he's gone into those farcical 188 00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:46.240 things. He's actually been pretty successful. So that plus you like that Eurovision 189 00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:50.000 movie. You were just all over that last year you stopped talking about it. 190 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:54.120 Huge fan of it? Was that last year? I think it was 191 00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:56.600 last year. No, I think that was like two and a half years 192 00:13:56.600 --> 00:14:01.840 ago. I like Abba, though I don't. You don't like Abba stinks? 193 00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:05.320 Whoa. They have a couple of good songs that came out thirty years 194 00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:07.440 ago. They haven't made good music since I'm not talking about their news fucking 195 00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:11.399 songs. Classic Abba al r yeah, classic abbums. Take a chance on 196 00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:22.960 me. He's dope. Speaking of Will Farrell, let's waste time. We 197 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:26.159 have to fill out this news dont mac and the question that I have for 198 00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:33.000 you. At the peak of their comedic movie run, can you please rank 199 00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:39.639 these actors? These comedic actors Jim Carrey, Mike Myers, Adam Sandler, 200 00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:46.519 Will Farrell. So Jim Carrey had the best single year. I think we 201 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:52.840 can agree on this. However, his run is considerably shorter than the other 202 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:56.120 three because his run roughly started when Myers just did. But Myers ended up 203 00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:00.799 with much more popular properties by the end of the nineties and then into the 204 00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:07.120 early two thousands and Struck and whatnot. Sandler has had made the most movies, 205 00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:13.120 but credit quality over quality for sure. I also feel like, I 206 00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:16.799 don't know if I want to say that of the four when they're at their 207 00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:22.360 funniest, I feel like Sandler's the least funny. Okay, So I agree 208 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.679 with you on that actually, but yeah, I also want to give him 209 00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:28.799 credit for writing most of his stuff, or being a writer with most of 210 00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:31.720 his stuff, So I do want to look at that. So Will Farrell 211 00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:37.200 does a lot of improv movies, so he works a lot with those characters. 212 00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:41.879 Jim Carrey was a writer on ace Ventura, so credit there. But 213 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:48.240 Mike Myers created two of the most popular characters of the nineties, Wayne's World 214 00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.080 and Austin Powers. Yeah, no, that's true. I basically what I'm 215 00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:54.919 trying to do is evaluate this because to me, it's like, clearly Will 216 00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.039 Ferrell, Like if you okay, so Will Ferrell's number one. We're both 217 00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:02.039 saying Will Ferrell number two thousand and three to two thousand and ten, starting 218 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:04.960 with Elf ending with the other guys. His run of comedic movies in there 219 00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:08.840 contain like three of my ten favorite because of all time. So I think 220 00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:12.679 he's number one. And then you come into like, do you want to 221 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:18.840 evaluate Carrie's few years over Myers is longer run, but Myers is longer run, 222 00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:23.279 is pretty much just two characters, but he has sequels. Yeah, 223 00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:26.519 yeah, And I feel like Carrie is funnier than mine. And then also 224 00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:32.559 Sandler might have more movies and more characters, but those characters are all kind 225 00:16:32.559 --> 00:16:34.919 of the same. Yeah, that's true, but we also now it doesn't 226 00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:37.440 help him here in the comedic, Well it does a little bit. Actually, 227 00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:41.759 Uncut Gems was a totally differ Well, if you're gonna do that eternal 228 00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:45.080 sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Jim Carrey is a great actor too, No, 229 00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:48.000 no, but I'm saying the comedy comedy wise and Uncut Gems was a 230 00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:52.159 newer comedy, and we hadn't really seen that from any of those other three, 231 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:56.960 although I suppose Carrie probably could get to that level. Mike Myers was 232 00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:00.279 in The pent Tabarynth. I don't think Myers and as much as of Will 233 00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:03.240 Ferrell, I don't think Myers and Farrell can get to a serious, if 234 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:06.039 enough place to be in a movie like that Where is It? Thing Carry 235 00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:10.559 and Sandler Everything Must Go is pretty good, though Will Farrell is always going 236 00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:14.640 to be good at the self deprecating him which is a big part of that 237 00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:18.480 movie as well. But this is tough because currently, if one of these 238 00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:22.240 four make a movie, I'd rather see the Standler movie because the other three 239 00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:26.119 I'm saying peak, though I'm saying peak of their run. Peak is still 240 00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:30.799 Ferrell for me, and then after that I'll go carry just because he had 241 00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:33.640 the singular best year. So if you talk in peak, that's maybe the 242 00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:38.920 single best and then probably a toss up between Myers and Sandler, but I 243 00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:42.000 would lean standing. I would have Myers fourth on the list, but you 244 00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:45.279 are also much higher on Wayne's world than I. I'm also I'm a huge 245 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:48.519 Adam Sandler fan, but I would still have him third. Here, I'd 246 00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:51.799 go Will Ferrell, and that just might be our age. We're in our 247 00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:53.759 mid thirties. Maybe if we were closer to forty. It's more of a 248 00:17:53.839 --> 00:18:00.519 Jim Carrey audience because Jim Carrey was just a fucking monster in ninety were through 249 00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:03.720 like ninety six. Yeah, And we also didn't get much of the sandler 250 00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:06.960 S and l Run when people kind of fell in love with them. We 251 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:08.720 just got the movie. Well, I've seen them all on Comedy Central a 252 00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:11.920 million times. Yeah, but you weren't eighteen when you were watching it. 253 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:15.039 I saw a canteen boy. I know we can't watch canteen boy now, 254 00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:19.759 but I've seen canteen boy. I don't like. If you ask me this 255 00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:22.319 question twenty years ago, would have been Sandler, and then you ask me 256 00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:26.079 ten years ago, it's Farrell. Right now, it's still Farrell. Farrell. 257 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:30.319 I go Mike Meyer's second. I love those two characters. Then I 258 00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:33.480 go Sandler, but it's close with Carrie. But also I would have a 259 00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:38.279 giant step up from Myers to Farrell. But then the next three are pretty 260 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:41.599 close. I think the I think the arguments for second for sure. And 261 00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:45.200 then also another actor that you could toss in there, maybe a Ben Stiller, 262 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:49.440 but I would take those four de Ben Stiller Stiller, but then he 263 00:18:49.480 --> 00:18:53.960 can dodgeball heavyweights. But it's the same characters, dodgeball Heavyweights meet the parents. 264 00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:57.720 Zoolander. I mean he's also great. Yeah, there's a lot of 265 00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:00.680 other great comedic actors. I'm not saying there's only four in the world. 266 00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.880 That's all I'm saying. I can agree with that there's more than four. 267 00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:14.759 We need writers, guys, news dumb. It's movie anniversary time. It's 268 00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:18.839 Morphan time. It sounded like you were gonna say, give iron Man the 269 00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:22.880 first one came out fifteen years ago. Yeah, and we mentioned how important 270 00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.000 Guardians is to the MCU. I think it's the single most important movie in 271 00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:33.119 the MCU. But that movie would not have been successful or possible even without 272 00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:36.319 the success of Iron Man in two thousand and eight. I agree with you 273 00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:40.599 completely without iron Man in two thousand and eight, because the next four ish 274 00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:44.279 movies from the MCU were not very good and they didn't even make a ton 275 00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:45.839 of money. Iron Man two did off the back of iron Man one, 276 00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:52.000 but without the steady start of Iron Man and you know, bringing these characters 277 00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:56.559 to a pretty realistic, you know world around them. Yes, iron Man 278 00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:02.240 is such a huge part, maybe one of the most important cultural movies of 279 00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:06.319 all time, because it kicked off fifteen years of what we've had. Yeah, 280 00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:10.920 like going into the Avengers GOO in twenty twelve, what would you say 281 00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:17.799 is the second best mc movie? Four or American which but I'm unlike, 282 00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:22.119 but they're not great. Yeah, So I mean that's really it's the iron 283 00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:26.000 Man jumped to Avengers and then from Avengers to Guardians. Those are the three 284 00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.720 really pivotal points. I was on hashtag dorc last night brag yes, and 285 00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:36.119 I stumbled into a great joke. So Keith is like, yeah, iron 286 00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:37.200 Man. You know you do have the mirror ville And I'm like, yeah, 287 00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:40.480 but they don't look alike. You know, one's iron Man, one's 288 00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:47.720 Iron Showed. It's a big thing. It's pretty good. Yeah, we 289 00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:51.720 don't have writers. Guys, if you had delivered that with a Norm McDonald 290 00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:56.599 delivery would have hit better. I should have paused a lot more. Also, 291 00:20:56.279 --> 00:21:00.880 yeah, iron chowed and you stop and you look around. Also, 292 00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:06.480 Mac, iron Man three came out ten years ago and IGN had an article 293 00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:10.640 out saying that was the best Tony Stark movie. And I understand them saying 294 00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:15.039 specific to you know, outside of the costume. But iron Man one is 295 00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.640 still a Tony Stark story. Yeah, and I raise you both of those 296 00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.440 with Endgame. Endgame is the best time. I would argue any of the 297 00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.880 Avengers movies. Endgame is the best Tony Stark story. I would take Tony 298 00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:30.200 Stark story in Avengers one, two, three, and four over iron Man 299 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.759 three. Iron Man three I think is fine. I think it's better than 300 00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:37.079 iron Man two if you want to. So say, if only iron Man 301 00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:41.559 two and iron Man three came out and people were super confused James about why 302 00:21:41.599 --> 00:21:45.400 they started it with iron Man two, iron Man two or three, and 303 00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:51.359 like this world only has those two movies. And you said, iron Man 304 00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:53.039 three, that's a better Tony Stark story. I'm saying, yeah, you 305 00:21:53.319 --> 00:21:57.559 fucking nailed it. So IGN is always on some bullshit. They fucking stink. 306 00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:03.039 But what the trying to say is that iron Man three is the most 307 00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:08.559 human story of all of the Ironman movies because he's dealing with PTSD still stemming 308 00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:12.839 from the Avengers movie, and he's dealing with you know what lays the groundwork 309 00:22:12.920 --> 00:22:18.160 in Civil War and whatnot, and ultimately the disagreement between the Civil War is 310 00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:22.759 a better Tony Stark move. They all are, They all are. They're 311 00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:26.079 just idiots at AGEN and they don't know how to tell you what they're talking 312 00:22:26.039 --> 00:22:27.640 about. I hope you didn't click on it, because you know what that 313 00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:33.880 was no clickbait, yo, that's fucking yellow journalism. That's a little newsboy 314 00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:38.160 out there in the afternoon trying to sell afternoon papers. Iron Man three, 315 00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:45.559 bass Tony Stark moobit extra extra at newsboy Berries just out here fucking slinging clickbait 316 00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:48.759 headlines. That's son of a bitch. Uh. Then we also have X 317 00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:53.440 two turns twenty Wow. What a what a year? What a year? 318 00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:57.079 What a week? What a year? What are you talking about? Oh 319 00:22:57.079 --> 00:23:00.279 it's this week too, Yeah, that happened last week. All three of 320 00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:03.599 these all right, they're all from different years, you know how one of 321 00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:07.359 them was from fifteen years ago, one was ten years I'm saying this year. 322 00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:11.880 What a year? Is what I was saying. Oh for anniversary communication 323 00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:15.039 there. I guess X two is still pretty good movie. Go, Yeah, 324 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.319 still pretty good movie, I would argue. I mean it's the best 325 00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:22.759 of the original trilogy. The opening scene. I know that we've kind of 326 00:23:22.759 --> 00:23:26.799 talked about it on social media. We also I just rerelease the opening scene 327 00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.799 podcast that we did five years ago. We're old guys, by the way, 328 00:23:32.039 --> 00:23:34.640 but I think it's still up there with the best opening scene. I 329 00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:38.960 might take the Dark Night over it. The opening scene to Logan is awesome, 330 00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:42.880 but this one is just so good. Yeah. And X two also 331 00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:45.799 gives you an actual, real sacrifice at the end of the movie. We 332 00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:49.039 talk about all the time how movies are afraid to kill off characters. Of 333 00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:52.799 course they had dark Venus in their pocket, but they actually did something substantial 334 00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:56.160 in that movie. And of course you get the whole you know, breaking 335 00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:00.480 out of that damn and as well too. The X two is still a 336 00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:03.480 good movie. It also sucks that Alan Cumming just didn't like having the makeup 337 00:24:03.480 --> 00:24:06.559 put on him and that's why he didn't want to do the movies in more, 338 00:24:06.599 --> 00:24:10.079 because he is so good in this movie. He's great, He's a 339 00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:12.759 great Night Crawless. Maybe that's what our podcast is at the end of this 340 00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:18.880 week, because we need a topic. Maybe we do best one offs in 341 00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:22.400 superhero movies or something. I don't know, best makeup in the superhero movies. 342 00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.599 Goo yes got into the Galaxy Volume three is ninety five percent right now 343 00:24:26.640 --> 00:24:30.240 from the audience, So everyone assuemingly loving it. How did the dorkboys like 344 00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:33.880 it? Well, Davy wasn't there because Davy hates the MCU now and he 345 00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.000 just doesn't show up to MCU podcast. That's why Goog gets called in. 346 00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:42.640 Keith loved it, And not to give anything away, but Goose Juicy six 347 00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:48.440 pass, you gave it a five and a half or five. I gave 348 00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:51.119 it a five. I did the math, and I think thirty four is 349 00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:55.720 roughly a five. But I'm steadfast on that thirty four though. I think 350 00:24:55.759 --> 00:24:57.880 I'm more into it now than when we talked about it. I agree, 351 00:24:57.920 --> 00:25:00.480 I agree with you. When I I was teeter in thirty five thirty six, 352 00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:03.400 I said thirty six, And now I think I'm locked in at thirty 353 00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:07.400 six. I'm locked in at thirty four. I might have gone five and 354 00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:11.640 a half, but I think five's very reasonable as well. Yes, what 355 00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:15.200 did Keith give the second one? Did you guys talk about that? I 356 00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:18.000 forgot to ask, But where did he rank you in the MCU? Did 357 00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:22.559 he give you? I just kind of gave you a hint. Oh, 358 00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:26.519 okay, Yeah, I thought that meant the six stone. Maybe that also 359 00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:30.680 means that I don't know how many sixes. I guess I'll have to listen 360 00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:36.519 to the episode a lot of sixes. It's whichever movie just came out last 361 00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:41.960 that one in the MCU. Of the thirty two movies, Keith has twenty 362 00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:48.200 eight sixes. Yeah, Like I said, we don't know what we're doing 363 00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:51.440 at the end of the week. I kind of do. We stumbled to 364 00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:56.240 it on Twitter of someone asking like, where does the high evolutionary rank amongst 365 00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:00.440 MCU villains. Do we want to do a tearing of MCU villains this week? 366 00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:03.640 Or do we want to take an MCU break? It doesn't really matter 367 00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:07.799 to me. Maybe we do it while the MCU is still hot, because 368 00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:11.720 maybe it's not so hot after the marvels if we do tearing ever again, 369 00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:12.960 though, we realized my computer is not gonna be able to handle it, 370 00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.400 so you'll have to do that. I'll have to be at home then slash 371 00:26:17.480 --> 00:26:19.880 actually sitting on a chair. I don't want to do that. Okay, 372 00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:22.880 well, maybe we don't do that. Maybe hear me out get a new 373 00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:26.480 computer. Nah? Fuck that that costs money. Yeah, you're making all 374 00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:30.920 that money with the sports gambling. I haven't. I haven't been on anything 375 00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:33.200 in two weeks. What has happened to you? I had, I had 376 00:26:33.240 --> 00:26:37.960 a lull. I said, you know what, I'm gonna stop the cascade 377 00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:41.160 here the fall, and I'll just take my money and go home, and 378 00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:44.640 I'll tell you why not to get too much into my gambling. But I 379 00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:49.319 was having a real nice weekend Friday Saturday, and then yesterday I missed on 380 00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:52.559 a nine leg parlay. I hit eight of them. Yeah, and I 381 00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:56.440 said to myself, I needed this. I had to be grounded. There. 382 00:26:56.440 --> 00:26:57.720 You go take a week off and then you'll have a Oh no, 383 00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.200 I got for the dress of the day. As soon as I see those, 384 00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:06.839 uh those boosts, I'm in, all right, that's fair. You 385 00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:10.279 give me a boost. Also, I'm gonna ride with the oilman. I'm 386 00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:14.920 gonna ride with him. I'll tell you, Gil, I don't know if 387 00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.920 anyone will ever actually say it. Because Wayne Gretzky was so good. I 388 00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:22.000 think Connor McDavid is the greatest hockey player. That's also Leon dry Sidles, 389 00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:26.400 fucking nasty. Dry Sidle is great, but dry Sidle has only gotten to 390 00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:32.279 this level because of McDavid. Connor McDavid, I think is the best. 391 00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:36.319 He might not have the best career because it's no one's gonna touch Gretzky's career. 392 00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:38.920 I think Connor McDavid is the best hockey player I've ever seen. This 393 00:27:40.079 --> 00:27:45.079 is good sports talk. Um, do we want to do our hockey jerseys 394 00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:49.759 from the nineties episode? I only have two, maybe three. I can 395 00:27:49.799 --> 00:27:56.359 bring a bunch. I used to have a Gretzky Rangers alternative one alternate with 396 00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:00.319 the oh with the big Statue of Liberty. So that's on the big pile 397 00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:03.160 of ugly jersey's list. I love that jersey. And that's what we're going 398 00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:07.680 to talk about, is all the ugly jerseys from the nineties. I thought 399 00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:10.559 you met ones we owned. Well, you can talk about that obviously. 400 00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:12.559 The only one I think, the only one I own actually from from childhood 401 00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:18.559 at this point is a multise. You love the Devils and I hate the 402 00:28:18.640 --> 00:28:22.920 devils. The Devils. That's why I loved late nineties early two thousands hockey 403 00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:26.480 NHL specific was. Yeah, I didn't love the college game, but um, 404 00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:30.920 what I loved about it is that you had all these teams that hated 405 00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:34.519 each other, and as a fan, we could all come together and hate 406 00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:40.000 the devils as one. Yet for some reason, you love the Devils. 407 00:28:40.279 --> 00:28:44.720 You love Marten bro Door, you love Scott Stevens. Oh, we all 408 00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:48.759 loved Scott. He didn't he almost killed Paul Korea. Yeah, well deserved 409 00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:52.759 what. We also all love the Avalanche. I'm not gonna I didn't love 410 00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:55.599 the Avalanche, but I loved the Devils as well. Well. I didn't 411 00:28:55.599 --> 00:28:57.880 like Actually, yes, that fucking a honky Mike Madonno in the stars. 412 00:28:59.160 --> 00:29:02.359 I was gonna say, you like the stars, so I didn't love the 413 00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:04.720 stars, but I would take the Stars over the devils. Madonna was always 414 00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:11.079 Madonna. Joe New and Dyke stages and Madonna didn't show up, and Richter 415 00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:17.039 sucked in all those Internet number one Madonna's from America. All right, USA, 416 00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:21.279 that that era of USA hockey stuck. Jeremy Roenick when he's a little 417 00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:26.079 bit older. This has been five of the best pennants we've ever had. 418 00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:30.799 We bring the sports podcast. Yeah, now we're in the writers strike. 419 00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:36.079 Now they're in the writers strike. The sports podcast is back. We'll do 420 00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:38.880 four hours on how the Broods collapsed, although now the Panthers up three to 421 00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:41.920 no on the on the Lease. Oh actually, before we go, are 422 00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:47.519 you one of those losers that roots for the team that beats your team so 423 00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:51.720 you feel better about your team losing to that team? Sometimes? Yes, 424 00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:55.759 sometimes I am, whereas I want that team to lose as quickly as possible 425 00:29:55.799 --> 00:29:57.839 because I hate them. Now that gets the leafs though I don't even care 426 00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:02.720 about the leaves. LEAs stink. Fuck the leaves, you stink. You 427 00:30:02.720 --> 00:30:06.079 don't like Matt Sundean. He had an ass at the end of his name 428 00:30:06.119 --> 00:30:07.559 and at the beginning of his last name, so it just ran together. 429 00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:11.200 You're just a fucking little prissy boil here because you liked Felix the cat, 430 00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:15.920 Potvin and those leaf teams. I didn't like pot Van on the maple leaves. 431 00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:21.519 I liked him on the kings. You've been talking about Matt's Sundean for 432 00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:26.279 fucking twenty five years. What a ridiculous name, right, Matt's Sundan. 433 00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:30.880 Come on, just remove the S and the S at the end is spelt 434 00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:37.000 with like the three lines three lines and then they connect them. The diamond 435 00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:41.200 looked a look at ass and I think there's only one T in there too. 436 00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:44.519 Absolutely, and that's how we end news dump. Now it's time for 437 00:30:44.519 --> 00:30:45.920 girls jumping on trampolines.
