Yeah, yeah, times get off the pitch. Hello, ladies and gentlemen,
and welcome back to the Geek. First the five hundred and sixteenth episode.
You're getting two main episodes this week. I am the clownference of rag
Rock Stell dressed Noll go check out our side quest episode. Did not realize
that because it was soccer day, so late getting in here, but I
am joined by I'm the little drummer boy do unless there you go? Yes,
so just us Taylor. I keep saying this in Georgia, but I
think I'm wrong Atlanta, which is Georgia. Okay, so yeah, because
there's two Georgies in America. There's George is something that oh what happened with
this tooth just started hurting all of a sudden. Oh why, Yeah,
I don't know why. It's just like a weird thing just snaps off.
Yeah, that was weird. But the dentist recently it might like my not
recently, but my your calendar and stuff something. I'm all good there just
was like, must be getting old feeling. But yeah, yeah, Taylor
is away, which we're gonna about Taylor after what we've been watching in promotions
because I got I got something, uh something from him. But then yeah,
so Taylor's away on a business trip for his real job, and then
Kurnklan's got a little cold, he says, So he says, you know,
maybe log on right now, see who's playing. See if he's like
the grandma moving days. You know, when he's playing what was his go
to back in the day. There's always sky Rim back in the sky,
but now it's definitely Total War would be the thing I assume he would be
doing if he's bailing out. But you know, that's his comfort thing.
So if he's sick, like, I'm okay if he's playing Total War,
because then he'll he'll make him healthier. You know, I would go for
a lighter game personally, but you know, for him, that's that's his
comfort game. I think, Yeah, I believe him for the most part.
Hopefully heals up and then he can be there for Thursday slash Friday for
the audio listeners, because we'll be reviewing Furiosa plus three yea, Taylor won't
be back until sometime next week or something like that, so take a look,
well look out for him. He'll be on other stuff, but he's
out there in the ether learning creative thumbnail things, hopefully things that he can
bring back to keep first, right, I'm hoping, right, Yeah,
I hope. So, I hope his whole life is you know, centered
around how can he make geek fors better? You know, not personal growth,
not personal career growth, but just be first, make it the ultimate
machine. Okay, I hopen he stands up like a press conference like Terry
Field from a geek for his podcast, like he's actually sent there from his
job, but he makes it sound like we sent them there to make it
sound like, yeah, what's his geek f us? But uh yeah no,
so just just us again, so you can go back. We just
did us twenty four hours less than twenty four hours ago. No, twenty
four hours ago. That's about okay. Yeah for help Blade hell Blade one.
We're gonna be doing Held two in a couple of weeks. But yeah,
it was a good episode to talk about it. It's been fun seeing
the reviews because I think it's the second one is reviewed well. But it
seems like there's been some big critiques to get it against it. So okay,
yeah, I haven't read in it yet, so I'm not I'm not
too privy on what's going on there. Yeah, there's been a couple of
lower scores from like bigger reviewers or game sites. But then there's I think
overall, I can't remember what is a meta critic. I think it's maybe
in the eighties, but I think there's lots of hot takes about it.
So I'm excited to jump in there and see what my takes are like.
But we got that going on, and then dyl Muss, you know,
today is a day, big day at the time, it's a recording of
you know, it doesn't matter, but you can do it at any time.
Now, what can you do, sir? Yeah, my game it's
officially out. Potion Problem. Look at what Mudgs did for me as a
little as a little gift. She made a plaque with my it's awesome with
my art, which is weird because this whole time I've been doing my pixelar
on my little computer here, I've never like seen it in my art physically,
so it's pretty trippy. But yeah, really nice, that's very nice,
really nice of her to do. We have My game is officially out
as of today. You check it out. It's called Potion Problems on Steam
and uh, yeah, let me know what you think, I'm I'm excited
to hear people's thoughts after they check it out and look at that. Now
this year, we've released a game, we've released a movie. We're just
crushing it over here. Geek Ferst name another podcast that has members that have
released a game and a movie in the year. Yeah, that's kind of
tough. I feel for both of them because I feel like I know lots
of people that do TV shows or movies and then video games, but not
not the either like both of them, so they will be in the description.
They're also it's going to be in the chat right there for all the
people there, So there you go. I'm not sure what I can do
there, but it's there. Will be in the description of this episode,
say go take a look at that, but yeah, no, go play
it. Tons of fun, big achievement. And then I got some questions
about that in a second and what we've been playing and watching category, I
guess playing that side quest but you know, tis is life. But yeah,
it's everyone, go do that. Go to I almost close stream Steam
if you don't have account, make one, go do that. Download Potion
Problems today May twenty, first big day, So congratulations, sir, thank
you so much. Yeah, and then yeah, like we said, Furios
is coming up, we've got the alien retro happening. We will be announcing
one more thing for it. But geek first day is coming up. We
keep trying to plan the official day. We know it's August Long weekend,
that's what we know. I think it's looking like it's probably gonna be the
Saturday. Kirkland said he was good to go, but we're gonna just confirm
it either way, it's happening all aslong. We will probably have an official
date date even start time, probably in the next two weeks here, because
we've been trying to get us four together because we have to discuss some few
things and it always doesn't happen, but either someone's away. I feel like
the last because I feel like the only time the four of us have been
together in the last few weeks has been like x men. So when we
get in the room to record, we're like ready to go. We're excited,
We're chomping at the bit to talk about it. So maybe that's why
we haven't got around it. We always talk about, oh yeah, Wednesday,
we're gonna have that conversation and then Nope, we just get right to
it. Yeah. I think it's that, or it's been the movie reviews
when those get to some late nights and that's when you kind of we lose
those things and it's like, Okay, now we've gone too long. Let's
go to bend something. Even like when we did Strangers last week, I
expecting our hour a little bit. We went like an hour forty five.
It's like, oh man, it was fun for a movie like that.
That's a long one. Yeah, got lots of just tangents that happened.
But yeah, so we will have a date there. A big thing and
a good thing is too because the post is that we had lots of responses.
I haven't even count them. I've lost count. But you can go
to Patreon right now and just searched twenty twelve Golden Geeks. If you're a
member on any tier, you can give us a movie that we should watch.
I don't know if we're going to be watching them all, but I
think we probably will be putting them on the list of contenders. A lot
of good ones that we are, you know, I think people like we've
watched a lot, or like someone like I think Maddie put in Prometheus,
where it's like, well, luckily we're doing name in the retro so that's
like a easy check off. So I think primarily most and will be watched,
but still we just want some inspiration because we have some picks. But
for Geek first day, we're doing a Golden Geeks for twenty twelve. You
guys voted on it. So we're going to do a retrospective and do best
Actor, Best Actress film, everything like that. Everything we do deep cuts.
I want to hear. I want to get some twenty twelve movies that
I've never heard of. Oh, I was very happy that someone I can't
remember who, I'm sorry because there was so many responses. I think it
was God Loves Me sixteen. I may put Killing of a Sacred Deer.
That's one of your gross movies. That's yeah, yeah, with that Garrick
Keegan and with Very Keon and Nicole Kimmon. So there's a couple of those
there. There's like Chronicle, which I'm not sure did you ever see Chronicle
back in the day, Michael B Jordan Dane to Haunt it's a superhero uh,
first person view like cam movie and stuff. It's like these kids.
That's familiar and now we probably talked about it in the gig verst era,
but yeah, that's cool. Nice. So yeah, there's some phones there,
so yeah, go do that now because that won't be this week,
but probably next week hopefully everybody will be back. I don't know what we
got going on next week. I'm gonna break the fourth wall here, I
got I got toime to kill. It's just me and don't know what we
got next weeks like a therapy session a little bit for us, there's like
a planning, like it's like a meeting. This we're just gonna talk about
how Kirkland and Tea can improve in the next year. Yeah, next year.
Next week we do hopefully record the second Alien retro and that will be
all four of us, so that will hopefully be a time where we crack
that down. So that's why i'd say, probably got about another week.
If you have a movie, go put it in that chat and uh yeah,
we'll do that. So that's happening. There will be one more thing
that maybe we'll announce on the next thing. And because we also have to
break down, and I guess what I should said too is what we're doing
is we're gonna be doing an eight hour streams sort of whatever we're gonna decide
on the time, but that's probably the time to celebrate our nine year anniversary.
But what you can do, and we will have stretch goals is whether
you join Patreon at any tar or if you up your subscription, that will
make the stream longer. There's going to be I guess there already has announced
that there's gonna be a Patreon trivia event too, where if you want to
participate, it's gonna be I believe it's you and me leading teams, and
it's gonna be teams. I think it's yeah, I think it's just anyone
on Patreon if you want to complay some trivia, we'll be leading some teams.
So that's why too for many things, it's gonna be interactive stream if
you want to make the stream go longer, and we will show you what
the stretch goals are and which we want to do. It's just a good
way to you know, hopefully support us a little bit, because not only
does that support us, but anything right now with Patreon or that day that's
just gonna go towards the fall content, the early twenty twenty five content.
Things we've announced, things we haven't anounce, so we would really appreciate that,
and if not, just a good celebration of the of the day.
We still will force to be doing our nine year anniversary episode where we do
the questions and stuff, well, but we'll do that a different day because
sometimes those casts can go longer and that could kind of take up a whole
day. So this will be we got the trivia, we got the Golden
Geeks, will be one more, and we do, in my mind have
a man. But I have to wait until Taylor gets back because I got
an email from his lawyer, Dylan a couple of weeks ago, if you
recall, you know, because Taylor says, in his mind he doesn't think
I won a match, but he agreed. He said, you know,
whatever neck injury or not, I'm gonna it's gonna happen. But I got
an email from his lawyer and I'm gonna have to get him to show me
some They say lawyer must make a lot of money. Yeah, like from
him for all these year, not even his other clients, but just from
Taylor. He's probably in Georgia with them right now. That's what we got.
The same lawyers as the hunk of Hunk of guys probably which they are
coming back very soon. The episode is gonna be dropping my Patron this week
early and then it will be dropping at the end of this month for the
public feed. And that's my brother and his friend who has the Man of
a thousand names. If you know who they are, I'm sorry. And
if you don't know who they are, I'm sorry, but they'll be coming
and your listeners might not have encountered these freaks in the past. Lots of
yeah, I'm excited, lots of many negative reviews that they had acquired in
the past, so yeah, I'm excited to see they still got the magic.
But that's why I don't think Taylor's actually a way. His lawyer has
sent me a letter that that he feels the lawyer, not Taylor. All
this email I'm not gonna read out because it's just garbage, but the many
times stated that Taylor doesn't feel this way, but the lawyer, his doctor,
and his wife feel that with his neck injuries, and Tayla next time
he's on a newscast is going to provide set information that he cannot be medically
cleared for this match for some reason. They're saying that another injury to his
neck could cause catastrophic damage. Now, I've seen a lot of stunts this
man has done on set, and I don't believe this. So my legal
team's gonna be contacting him. So as of right now, the match is
in flux, but I can tell you that I'm going to make sure this
thing happens. These bitches and do you think if I'm talking about Madison,
I'm not. I'm talking about all of them as a collective. This whole
Field squad lawyer thing should just be known as the bitches. Yeah, everybody,
anybody with the last name Field. I'm sorry because you guys already hate
me. So whatever it is, like double down, Yeah, I don't
trust it. So Wheel like Taylor has a very strong, resilient body,
So I don't believe that for a second. I think he wants to get
at this. I think he's scared finally, So I will keep you updated
TBD, ladies and gentlemen. I'll make further announcements, but what I can
announce is what I've been watching. But I'm gonna actually throw it to dial
and ask and what have you been watching? That's what we do now.
People said, that's something you know on Psyquest we talked about people like that.
They want to know bitter that and then what's what was I gonna say?
Bread and butter. That's dropped, and then originals will drop next week.
We're originals. We talked about more of our personal life stuff. Oh
that's all I was gonna ask. Oh, there we go. Hey,
guys' supposed to have been a while to be able to watch live my graduation
a few weeks away. Congratulations. Yes, yeah, he took a sabbatical
from the Gimmick because he had to focus on his graduation. But once he's
graduated, he'll be back on so okay, cool. Yeah, trying to
focus on schoolwork more than wrestling. I'm pretty ashamed of him, but that's
okay. Me and David. Will you and him to have taken different life
paths? Yes, absolutely absolutely, but me and David will welcome back with
open arms. What I was gonna say is because we'll get The reason I
was talking about originals is before we used to do like personal talk the beginning.
Now we do mostly that originals and we talk about what we've been watching.
I did want to ask because also to promote your game, and because
you've talked about a law and side quest, but also just in general.
So now going forward, I know you've talked about originals, but like just
not even to tease because it's probably far off, but you are at least
there's probably an idea of a second game, right I I've already started it.
There you go. I've already started the new file. I was.
I was telling myself, I'm gonna wait until this game's out so that I,
you know, forced myself to finish this project before I get sidetracked or
anything. But on I think it was Saturday, I'm like, you know
what I got, I gotta start this like I have nothing else to do
on Postion pub It's already uploaded on Steam. I'm not gonna upload like a
new version. Nothing's gonna change in the next couple of days. So it
has started. I'm not gonna say genre yet because I think the next the
few things I'm gonna say this now are gonna be like smaller things and probably
free things I'm just gonna put out there, and I'm just gonna try a
bunch of different things. Yeah, and then when I've done that, I've
learned a bunch more about game development and stuff. Then I think I'm gonna
decide like what the next bigger project is gonna be and maybe try And I
mean because in this game, it is like I made the whole thing myself,
with exception of the music, which the great Amanda Collie did, ye,
But yeah, maybe in future projects were other people on other elements of
it. So yeah, I've already started, and yeah, I'm getting I
think it'll not be I'll probably have something else that's playable in this calendar year,
I hope, or maybe even a couple things, because we'll just be
smaller, little like prototypes and whatnot. But yeah, I'm very excited to
work on the next thing and multiple things. I'm I'm feel like me and
you are in that same boat where it's like, Okay, you're working on
the next movie, you have the one after that already planned, and then
you probably already in the back of your head have like a fourth and fifth
and six just sitting there, you know, with like little nuggets of ideas
sitting and ran notepads all over the place. But someday it'll kind of blossom
something more. Well, this is why I was bummed. We'll talk about
more originals. I might be moving the next little bit. So I had
this is going to sound unhealthy, and my dad and Emily were bugging me
a bunch this weekend. But I've planned my filmmaking life out to two thousand
and thirty three, so because I have all these I have all these ideas,
but that's nine years. Okay, yeah, not a decade. There
are certain reasons why, but it's just because with the filming, it's just
like just you gotta sometimes plan around weather and stuff and just ideas, and
we kind of always had these and not maybe all of them will happen.
Who knows where I am and nine years might not even be a thing,
But I just like to, can't I have all these ideas? What am
I gonna do? But that's where now I'm kind of stuck because I am
so annoyed. I literally just finished my newest script, which I have to
look. I think it's my second long s one, so not as long
as our second movie coming up here, but it's a little grothy. It's
to the point where it's supposed to was supposed to be a short film,
and I don't think it's gonna be anymore because it just kept coming along.
But now now I gotta ask because is that because of lots of dialogue or
is it because you just have a lot of other things written in there too,
or like more descriptions on like scenes and characters and that sort of thing.
It's the dialogue. I feel like I'm kind of fifty to fifty.
I feel like there's some scene I feel like a Dreado Chrome wouldn't have like
too long of a script. The scheme of things, right, Like a
lot of it is just environments and walking around and environmental stuff. Right,
So like obviously it ended up being a fifty minute movie, but that script
is like only twenty pages. So but technically what you're supposed to do is
you're supposed to count every page for a minute. That's what you're supposed to
have in your mind. Oh that's what they say, yeah yeah, But
like that doesn't always count because if you do an action scene. There's some
action scenes that I do very specific, and then there's somewhere I might just
be while they struggle for a knife, and that's like I just know,
okay, it'd be different if we had a budget and I could lay out
the set and know what I do. But right now, it's like when
we had some certain fight scenes, it's just we're gonna go in the woods
and figure out what can work and then make it up on the set.
So that's where though it was more dialogue and we're the characters were going so
but that's where I'm in the same That's why I was gonna ask you because
I'm at the stage of now I got to pick what to write next,
because this project that I wrote now with the time frame of me potentially moving
might not work for filming right now. So that's like, okay, Now,
that's the idea that you have so many different scripts and then like scenes
within these that if you pick a day, you know, like you know,
June thirteenth, you had a day to record plan and just like no
matter what the weather is, you could record some scene from some movie depending
on what yes, whether it's like that's that's what we try to do.
Like that we try like when we do into the cabin that one time we
shot multiple things for movies there just because we're we can control the environment.
But that's what I was gonna ask about your second idea before we moved on
to what we're watching. Did you know that was for sure like that,
like even while you were making potion proms, did you know, oh,
hey, that's what I'm for sure doing for the second game, or was
like, hey, I have these three to four options. I got a
sandwich one. Like I said, I have like a yeah, notepads full
of just random like ideas that are like it's a paragraph, so it's not
really fully flashed out. This one I've had brewing for the last few months,
and then I played a specific game recently that kind of inspired me in
one specific way. So I'm leaving it intentionally very kind of secretive for now,
But there was something I played recently that was like, okay, I
think that was that really worked for this game, and that inspires me that,
like this idea that I had that I thought would maybe be too complex
on the coding side, is actually a bit more feasible if I kind of
take a similar route in that that way. So then I I've just been
very excited about this idea, so now I'm going with it. But I've
definitely had ideas that have been my mind longer than this one, but this
one is the most exciting for me at the moment. So yeah, that's
what that's what I decided to go with. There you go. What have
you been decided to watch recently? I decided to watch. Yeah, it's
we've been watching Top Chef, not Irons. I always mix those up,
but I think we're watching the new season of Top Chef. We're watching Survivor.
Survivors done tomorrow night. There's been a very chaotic season that's huge.
Yeah, very wild season. So that's been fun. We watched this is
a couple of weeks ago now, but we haven't. I haven't been on
a newscast in a bit. Per your recommendation, me, mu's watch Baby
Reindeer, Oh yeah, which was very intense and very interesting and something very
different, and like, man, even if like half of that is somewhat
accurate, that's like an insane amount for someone to open up about their life.
So yeah, really crazy and even like just seeing all the articles in
less like week or so of like the real Martha's that come out and just
like Zoom doing all this stuff is like even crazier, which it's like,
I don't know, that's not even shocking that that's happening based on like the
story of what that show was, even if it ends in a not even
in a positive way, not no spoilers there, but it ends in a
very specific way, I guess. But that was a really fun time.
It was also very stressful and dark, but you know it was. It
was a good, good watch, well done. I'm curious what that guy
does next for his career. Yeah, he just signed on to an agency,
so I think he's gonna hopefully the next thing he does is good for
him because I think he's gonna get a lot of opportunities and stuff. As
long do you think he'll go like down the acting road, stand up route,
writing, Like what do you think he'd do? I think it'll be
more like this. I think it'll be more writing and starring and stuff that
he's done. So who knows. I don't know if it's gonna be because
I really you can't have anything else that's happened in his life that's a quarter
is interesting. Hey, maybe what's happening right now is gonna give him season
two trial. There could be a trial because that's the thing, you know,
you might find out how much is true or not, but yeah,
I saw the interview. I'm sorry, I don't I don't believe her.
Uh yeah, it'll be interesting because it reminds me of Luckily it's not as
traumatic, but it feels like a very similar rise to Phoebe waller Bridge a
couple of years ago when she did Fleabag and she did that and then she
went to an agency and she was everywhere. She was in Star Wars,
she was in Indiana Jones, she's in Disney stuff. She was in just
this past weekend, yeah, doing tomb Raider, which bump she's not starting
in. But I think it's gonna be that where he's gonna be starting and
acting and some stuff and then writing in a bunch of other stuff too.
I think because it's even if it is, like uh like, just because
that stuff's true, doesn't mean it could make a good show, right,
Like you gotta make it well constricted, and I think he does that very
well. So like it's I guarantee he'll do like a voice in Rick and
Morty or something like that, oh, a bunch of those kind of roles.
Yeah, yeah, So I think hopefully the potentials uh has no roof
for him there. But yes, definitely, we'll see and then Yeah,
honestly, like not too much else Other than that, I feel like I've
been I've just been watching a lot of things on YouTube. Oh like I've
been really into chess against something like watching it chess stuff, but more you
know Jenny Nicholson, right, you're a fan of her. Yeah, she
just released the latest YouTube video, which I don't think she's done in like
a year. But it was just like her experience of the Star Wars Hotel
the Galactic star Cruiser, which was just it's four hours long and I watched
it, you know, not in one sitting, but like within a day.
I just like been to the old thing because it's like her videos are
so good and so funny, and that one is like top tier. That's
like, that's my favorite Star Wars content in years, is watching her episode.
So if anyone hasn't seen that, I mean she's a very famous YouTuber,
so you don't. It's not like I'm shouting out with some like under
the radar YouTuber or something. But that video was really good, So like
that was my That's maybe a good highlight. But yeah, not a ton
that I've been watching that's particularly new or compelling recently. Yeah, I'm only
about I think I'm in forty six minutes in that video, but yeah,
I will finish it because yeah, i'd seen that she hadn't done in a
year. But then I always look at her patron I go that, that's
why you know it's it's all good. I think stuff there too, so
but yeah, that's a phone. Yeah, No, I haven't watched anything.
I'm looking at my list here, nothing new. I was really bummed
because I was preparing. I was gonna come in here to talk about challengers,
but then Gwen was sick today so she came home early and then it
didn't happen. So I had it all cute up, ready to go.
So next newscast, I want to weigh in and get in there because I
even started second of it. That was the plan today. Yeah, because
that was just love from Discord until Mike comes in, yes with a sledgehammer.
It clars it all down. So yeah, I'm curious where we're gonna
land on it. Yeah, join the Discord. I'll probably be more positive
because other than call me by your name, I like most of that director's
work, So I feel like I'll probably be more on the positive side.
But uh yeah, this week was just like a bunch of rewatch. I
rewatched Bullet Train because after Fall Guy, I wanted to do that nice AUSSI
Strangers. You can check out our review of that, and then I just
oh, yeah, I guess, I guess. So we watched a Ryan
in the Dark. That's a Netflix anime movie that came out this year.
We watched it again, really good. It's like a main character that's a
kid that has a lot of social anxiety. The whole even if you don't
watch the whole the whole movie, the cold open is worth open because it's
him going over all the things he's scared of, and the last thing is
second, the thing I'm most scared of is the dark, and then that
transitions into the movie. But it's some very clever stuff. Jacob Tromblay is
the kid. Paul Walter Houser is the dark. I was gonna say the
ghost, but he's like dark. But no, it's a really cute one.
It's it's on Netflix, and it's just one I think we'll probably go
back to. And I like to show it to the girls because you know,
they're still in ages where sometimes they're afraid of dark, where it's kind
of that sort of don't be afraid of the dark sort of thing, like
like the whole thing is dark is it's like a combination of monsters, inc
And inside out. All the elements are kind of like the emotions and inside
out, and dark is the one that everyone doesn't like because it's like,
well, nothing good happens in the dark, and it's scary. So it's
like, you know, he's always done. And then there's like some time
travel in it too. There's some very very cool stuff in there, some
very cool like plot devices. So I really like that Ryan in the Dark,
Yeah, Oh, Ryan in the Dark. Yeah. I was on
Netflix this year and it's in my top ten right now, So I really
like that one. And then I didn't finish it because Gwen came home.
But so far I can give my review of like three and like three out
of four parts quarters of the watch that came out in like two, two
thousand and eight or twenty ten. It's a it's an alien movie that has
Ben Steller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and last year I think, okay,
I wonder if I don't know why you watch it, but it's a
movie that Kirklin and Taylor really like and they not always quote it, but
they bring up a few times. So I was always like, I'm at
the stage where like, oh, I didn't have anything. I wasn't ready
to watch challenges at that point. This is at a time where it's at
work. I was, Okay, I just want to put something on and
this is like a calm and whatnot. Didn't know his radar, but so
that was a bonus. So I don't have a clear trajectory of what I'm
watching right now. Short weeks, so I don't have anything blenned out.
And yeah, so far, I'm enjoying it. I'm a big Ben Steller
guy. I love Majory this. Yeah, I love the majority of the
stuff he's done so and Vince Vaughn is just like my type of humor almost
everything he does. So I'm enjoying it. It's like a it's like a
nice like seven out of ten is like it's enjoy watching you like those people.
There's some good jokes. Billy Crudup's in a really fun role. So
I'm enjoying it. So I don't know if they'll be watching it, but
they'll be listening to this. But so far Taylor and Kirkle and I haven't
finished the third act, but they haven't led me astray here because I was
I ever know that those two have a lot of just like certain random movies
that we both just absolutely love, so I never knew that was one of
them. I can't recall them ever mentioning that in Geek for his history,
though I'm sure it's somewhere in a recorded episode at some point. Yeah,
I can't remember when it came up. I think a good thing is when
we do film, a lot of stuff randomly comes up because it's like,
oh, it's like that scene, or oh there's a scene like that.
So I feel like it came up at the cabin a year and a half
and ago and finally been trying to watch. So I'm going to finish that.
But now it's good. But yeah, no, not too much.
Obviously Furosa coming up, but yeah, I think I'll have gwent home tomorrow
again, say, not much like we watched. Now. She's watching Afraid
of the Dark because we'd finished Goosebumps, so we're making our way through that
series. She had never seen that Goosebumps we watched many times, or The
Fray or Dark we didn't. She wanted to watch Goosebumps movie, so I
went to cook during that. So I did not watch that because I can
only watch that so much. But that's the other thing. I haven't read
it. That's the last thing I'll say before we get in the news here.
Watched Flubber today for the first time in ages. Have you ever seen
Flubber? Remind me, no, I don't. Rob Williams makes a green,
gooey guy. It's a Disney movie. He like bounces around the Flubber,
becomes a character and stuff. It's all cgi. Yeah, definitely a
movie left better in my childhood. I remember it. I remember liking it
a lot, and it's a movie that I'll still pass but just purely because
Rob Williams gets it to the past because he's great and charming. But it's
one that a couple of weeks ago, Emily and the kids watch because now
Gwen it's like she's still watching Ami and stuff, but she's starting to get
into like she wants to watch more of the Disney Channel type of stuff like
that, like a live action Disney movie. Right, So they put on
Flubber, and I wasn't like offended. I missed it and she was sick
and she chose that It's like, oh, I was excited because like,
oh, I haven't seen this in age and I can't wait to watch Flubber.
And I was like, oh, man like it. It's it's really
bad. It's like, especially the character of Rob Williams. The first act,
he misses his wedding because he's working on a science experiment and he just
forgets that it's his wedding. So that's the crux of the plot. And
then one I go, why is this guy supposed to? Like why am
I rooting for him? Like he forgot his wedding day for a science project?
Like I get it, But it's just a cradle flubber. It's not
like he's curing cancer. It's just like, look at what I made.
And at the end of the movie they get married. They do the wedding
again, and also, sorry to set up the first time when he goes
to get married, they set up in the movie that he's missed missed their
wedding several times, so this is like the third or fourth attempt. Yeah,
And she's like something you can keep missing like that. No, that
doesn't make sense. There's a lot of planning that evolved typically exactly, and
she's like, you better not miss it this time. He does miss it.
Of course, he wins her back. At the end of the movie,
they get married. He's not the wedding. He has a robot there
in his place that he is facetiming her through the robot while they get married,
so he can work on a science Mara terrible human being, terrible character
sounds like. But the cast I was surprised they had the actor Christopher MacDonald,
the guy who played Schue McGavin was in it. Uh, Clancy Brown
was in it. The woman that plays Ron William's wife. I can never
remember her name, but she's been in a bunch of stuff. It's one
of the actress you would see and know. And there's a yeah, and
there's a guy. I'm a huge fan of Walkcart, the Dewey Cox story.
Have you ever seen Walkcart? Doan? I have not. I don't
think. Okay, there's a really good character actor in that. So I
have surprised a few little people i'd known from the past. But yeah,
I don't. If you had seen Flobber as a child. I don't recommend
it, but that had got me on the path. I think tomorrow we're
gonna I'm an introduce her to mister missus doubt Fire, and I'm very excited
about that. I think that's gonna be a good time. So that'll be
Funnna just start quoting around the house and yeah, exactly so. But yeah,
Flubber did not It did not stand the test of time. So that's
too bad. Yeah, let's see, says I hadn't seen the watch,
but until like a few months ago, I didn't know was about Ann's would
have been to watch it without knowing that? Oh sorry about that, s
bubs. Or are you saying I spoiled it? Or did it? Was
it already spoiled until a few months ago? I think he means a few
months ago that was mentioned, Okay, not just now in this moment.
Okay, either way, it does. I think within like the first five
minutes kind of tip its hat like something's going on there, but there's there's
still some fun to be had and stuff. So uh yeah, yeah,
check out Spub's Twitter. It's been funny. He said, I hope you
watch Ferros as soon as it comes up. Besides, the only thing I've
watched is the Gimmicks Essential Matches. Me and David gave him a list of
wrestling matches throughout like the last fifty years. He should be watching other people,
but he's been ranking them. We were you talking of YouTube it or
do you have to go somewhere to find those? For WWE E they're all
on Peacock in America or like the Dobey Network, so it's like a streaming
subscription. And then most of them are just on YouTube like they might be
a lower quality, but you can find some of those, like those Dolt
matches on there. So but uh, yeah, that'll be I think back
next week the Gimmick for you wrestling fans, because there's two pay per views
this week for different companies, so it's a it's a heavy weekend coming up,
so look out for that. But yeah, I feel like I didn't
know for the longest time in my life that it was like pay per view
and not pay per view. I don't know what I thought the pay per
view meant with it. You thought it was paper like you write paper that
you write on it. Yeah, because I feel like people always say it
that way, they like really absolutely the words together. Yeah. But when
I finally realized that maybe in my teenage mode, I don't know who I
was, It's like, oh, this makes a lot more offense. Yeah.
No, And now WW technically calls them ples because they're premium live events,
because you don't pay for them anymore, because they're on a streaming service.
Why does everyone the world premium? It's just everywhere these days. I
don't call it that. I still call I've been watching wrestling for thirty years.
It's been pay per view. I'm not I can't change it. It's
born to my mind. But you know what I can change is a topic.
And that's what we're gonna do. We're gonna take an ad break and
we're gonna finally talk about some news. We got a bunch of Marvel fun
news, rumors, taryror, swift news, we've got trailers, we've got
movie news. Will be right back and we're back. So, Dylan,
do you want to start Munes or you want to start with Tara Swift?
Start with the swift yees. So obviously let me pull up the news here.
Yeah, because yeah, well I'll say the other stuff because there's a
bit more details. So this had come out. It's kind of like a
three part story. Yesterday it had come out Daniel or Piquet, who is
a C plus tier scooper, Like the biggest one recently he got was what
was it Pedro as mister Reid. Yeah, I guess you can call miss
reader right, So it works. He's still doctory whatever, but so C
plus tier sometimes on the be he does put all a lot of scoops,
So sometimes I just wonder if it's stuff he's hearing. He goes right away,
but either way, hired to than other people. He had said that,
you know, Tara Swift has met with Kevin Faigie and it was a
good meeting. And then today he put out a continuation on that story that
the idea of the pitch er, at least one of the concepts, was
for her to do a Marvel Disney Plus series about a character name the Blonde
fa a character I've never read, so I'm completely here in the dark.
The Blonde Phantom is a fictional mass crime fighter who lives in the nineteen fifties,
so kind of evokes that Golden age sort of feeling. Her first appearance
was in nineteen forty six. I guess she's at one point returned the Modern
Age comics as a sidekick for the sensational she Hulk, So I'm not sure
if they just brought her into the future or they just rebooted in that character
was around, but that seems the idea that it would be the time centric
thing. And this does fit because there was a different Scoober last week that
had reported that Marvel was working on a blonde Phantom series, so I'm completely
separate to this. So it's kind of that, you know, quacks like
a duck, sounds like a duck. Maybe it's a Taylor Swift, and
that's what I was looking like. And I'm kind of surprised because I thought
the entire world, including myself, just thought, well, it's pretty obvious
she's gonna be Deadpool three, Like it just felt like whether she was Dazzorla
Deadpool like Blake Lively is why Ryan renelds, well, oh my god,
Blake Lively is Ryan Reynolds's wife. They're best friends. They've teased this before.
I don't know if you remember this, but a couple of years ago,
Ryan Reyeld's lent her the actual Deadbook costume for Halloween, like the Legit
on set costume. Taylor Swift had that so especially with Dazzler, I thought
that was like a like a layout, you know, like that's a fun
cameo. But how do you feel? Because, as you would probably guess,
this has been met with much mixed reaction for Taylor Swift, who is
I would say as like a controversial figure, But I don't think so.
I think it's just in the fact that because she's the most popular artist right
now, some people get weird about that, like have to like have an
issue or something with her. It's just like, I don't know, you
either like her music, you don't, you you move on, Like it's
just kind of a weird thing. But yeah, I mean I've been listening
to more Taylor Smith than I ever had before because of the Geekers Music leaguehere.
It seems like every round there's got to be a piece Swift pick in
there, which yeah, I've uploaded everyone so far. Like, don't get
wrong, I don't seek out Taylor Swift, but her music is good.
Like there's a reason why she's as popular as she is. Yeah, yep,
I hmm. This is strange to me because I was definitely I subscribe
to the theory of the Dazzler pick because I think it made a lot of
sense. It'd be easier. That's something that they could pay her an amount
for, but it wouldn't be some astronof call amount if you're getting herd a
star in a show that's all about her. Yeah, and they've been having
money issues with like getting like these things and the numbers like that would get
you numbers, but also feel like it isn't that incredibly expensive to pay her
for an entire TV show, Like if this was a Disney special presentation where
it's like a fifty minute long one off thing with this character and it's like
some small story, like maybe that would be the route at that point,
like maybe you just upgraded to a movie or something. But I don't know,
like is she does she act? If she ever acted before? Like
an immediate so she's a that's a two fer. Has she acted yes,
in a meaningful way? I don't think so. I think obviously she's done,
like you know, the Run the Mills, Mets and else gets here
and there she was in I think it's called Valentine's Day, like ten years
ago and she was dating Taylor Lautner. It was one of those like remember
when they were doing all those rom coms where it'd be like twenty celebrities in
one movie and it was all like mini stories. There's like New Year's even
down and say, he's not in that into you. She was in that.
She was in Gosh a couple of years ago. She's a movie with
Margaret Robbie, Christian Bale and John David Washington Amsterdam. She was an astron
okay for like a cameo. Would you say, did you not see Amsterdam?
I never saw that one. Okay, Yeah, she was in the
K I always want to And then I think I heard the run time and
I was like, it's gonna be hard to sell. I thought, like
hurt and it wasn't. It was. It wasn't great. I didn't hate
it like a lot of the other people, but it wasn't great. But
she was in that. But nothing. It's not a Gaga where she's had
like a big couple huge know there's been a lot of people in that pipeline
for sure that have done it can do it, So I'm not saying it's
like not something she could accomplish, But I'm just more thinking about the logistics
of it, and like, I don't know, Like she makes so much
money doing what she does, Like is this gonna be worth it for her?
Unless it's some insane amount of money? Does she really want to do
that? Like, are you she just wanted to be a one off?
Like, I don't know. Something about this doesn't sound right to me.
No, Obviously, if they get her in the door, even if her
acting is not great, like the stands are gonna be there and it's gonna
be huge, that would potentially get a new audience into the cinematic universe.
So I don't know how much their people would watch that and be like,
oh, now I gotta go do a rewatch of like twenty movies or something.
But there's something about this. It doesn't sound legit to me. That's
my that's my If this is a BS meter question, i'd be that like
twenty two percent or something. Oh, okay, would it help you to
give you the information? Last year wasn't out She's gonna be directing a movie
that changes things? And now what kind of what movie? What kind of
movie? All unknown? This just happened around on the time that because she
was very smart, like that's one thing her her team, her dad,
very very smart, right, super bandic, thank you. She was in
Cats. That's why I feel like she just has a bad agent acting wise,
because I forgot she was a cat and cats, right, But so
she's done a lot of acting. Then they're always still small roles though it's
not like Gaga who's did starring roles. They're always a supporting character and even
like a small one. What happened was last year that Eras movie. They
were super smart because the all the like the what is it like, all
the different studios wanted a big cut of the movie. And she had done
the movie herself. She says said no. And I don't know if you
recall this, but she had went just directly to the theaters and they distributed,
right, she were partner with other people. But then at that time,
when that was a success, they announced she was gonna be making a
movie. Now I can't remember who if it was attached to somebody, but
let's see directing movie and so it is it's something that was searched, like
okay, so that's what happened. Where the Era's movie is on Disney plus
Searchlight is with uh is with uh Yeah. I mean right, you're you're
giving me a lot of info here. I did not know any of this
about her career, to be honest, which I don't know if that's a
good or bad thing. I mean it's probably you know, this is not
what her main career is. She just is so famous that she can kind
of do this as a side hustle, supposed to speak. But she's a
tear of person, where like you just give her the keys of the kingdom.
You let her do whatever the hell she wants and it will be successful
for you. Now there is a line there in terms of how much money
you do give her to make these shows. But I don't know. I
like, maybe if she had maybe if she did have like some creative control
in this project, maybe she'd be more interested. I don't even know,
Like I don't know if she's directed something that's like now that's completely different than
acting. So I don't know. Her career is chaotic all of a sudden.
So that's why I wonder with this, So because like the directing,
if you ask me in face, but I am more excited for that because
I know you probably don't fail that much done. But she is a I'll
give her credit this, I'll give her credit for a lot things, but
in one fashion, she's very much like a jigsaw. Lots of her musics
and songs and promotion, they all have all these hidden meanings and all these
things, and she drops albums or songs in certain days because they coincide with
ten different things. She has a big thing with the number thirteen. So
like when when Emily explained Emily and my sister explained these things to me,
it is very much like she is Jon Kramer, and that's a kudos to
her, where she's like man, and that's where it's like with that mind,
they go, Okay, I am more excited if you come to me,
and I've only seen her act in the few things, but if you
come to me, say hey, what are you more excited for? Like
her as the actors, her as the director. Definitely the director, because
it's like, well, I think even lots of the movie, like the
music video she's done, have had a lot of and it's other people too,
but it's coming from a lot of her mind. So I think that's
where like, oh, I'm like yeah, yeah, some cheesy music video.
Yeah we're I'm not saying Gaga doesn't do that, but it just from
the few times I had seen Gaga, you go right away, Okay,
she's got the hoodspu to do this full time, where Swift. I don't
know if she has that, but if it's like she's she's going on this
tour right and I can't remember where this tour start. It was a long
time ago. It's ending at the end of this year. It's a long,
long tour, very proper for I wonder if there is a chance she
put out two albums in this tour, you know, like that's a long
thing. And this last album was two Hours. It was a it was
a long album. Maybe a little too long, but still I read the
version of that one song. I don't know if that was the most recent
album. No, it wasn't. It wasn't. So there's that and then
this newest album two Hours, And I like Tayry Swift. Let me get
to your the facts right there. I'm a fan of Taylor Swift, so
I'm not some hate or anything. Maybe it's just that she is transitioning to
the career of Hey, she wants to direct a movie. Maybe this is
something she can produce, she can get a first hand on. Maybe she
could even direct a episode. We see that all the time, where our
stars in a show will direct an episode, right, and yeah, that's
something where a great way to get some experience. Right. Yeah, he's
your lower stake setting. And then you got the Disney machine behind you and
Searchlight? Who is she announced that she's directing me is a part of Disney,
It's Searchlight, it's Fox. So it's like it's already travish my BS
meter. I've climbed up to sixty seven percent. Now it's sounding a lot
more, a lot more feasible. Now, I will say too, like
this isn't necessarily a part of this, but you mentioned that there's the the
revival of the character so to speak, in recent times with She Hulk.
That's a pairing I think would be really fun. Yeah, and I actually
think not that I once again, I don't know much about Taylor Swift clearly,
but I feel like totally like what She Hulk is as a show could
be fun alongside a character like that, and maybe her in an acting role,
So that could be that could be a fun duo because I don't know
what I mean. She probably gonna be in this rumored Hulk movie, but
we don't even really know what's going on with that. Yeah, probably not
gonna be in Captain America. Sounds like the more we hear about that,
So yeah, I think that could be a nice next spot for her to
show up. Maybe. So I agree. And all those points that I
said to get your percentage of I think are true. And now to me
it just comes down like is it a good idea? I don't know.
I think it is one of those things where people come out but I don't
it's it's true because I SPOS brought out that tweet and it was trending today
and I've seen the tweet too of like people support anything Taylor Swift does except
for acting. And that's where it's just like those movies when she's in.
It's not like they blow up like Kats was a bomb, Answer Dan was
a bomb. So it's like, I don't know if the need is there
because at the end of day, I think the music, like the hardcore
music Swift de crowd and the people that are hardcore filmgoers or you know whatever,
film buffs, I think they obviously are different people, right. I
don't think people have the same idea. I just saw the stands were so
in her camp that like, yes, you know, she can do all
this pollution with their planes and they'll turn it into like some good story of
how she's saving the world or something like they'll do anything for her. And
it's kind of surprising to me, Well, now, is there a musical
aspect of this character? Do you think do you think that would be part
of it at all? That like that's how they get you in the door,
because there's like exclusive songs that you she would do a song. I
think the same way Black panther exclusive song. I bet you'd get at least
one at least one song from Tayror Swift in and maybe like you only hear
it there. I think the only difference is though those times when she was
acting. So far, she hasn't been starring, right, So I think
to me, I do think people would go and watch it if it was
this Disney Plus series blonde fandom starting tayr Swift, I think those fans will
subscribe and go look to it. But I think it's like what you're talking
about earlier. To me, it's like I think it's a it's a one
shot, and I think, like, what does it gets you? I
guess it gets you some subs and maybe you can say, oh, this
is the highest watched Disney Plus series and X, Y and Z. But
it's just like in long term, are people gonna stand around? And even
the so far synopsis of this like nineteen fifties, like, I don't think
it'd have much crossover to what we're doing right now. How long. I
mean, let's say it's a six episode thing and they're all half an hour,
Like they could put it in the theaters too, alongside gomach of it
or something cut off the credits, put it out there and like that's how
you could make a shit ton of money on this, it's true. Or
you premiere the first two episodes in the theaters and then the rest. Yeah,
the Rings of Power method, Yeah exactly, Like there's definite anyways profitable.
It's just that is there an argument that you do this to make some
profit but you hurt your core fan base, Like I don't subscribe to this,
But she's just so far away from a point where there's any like she
would have to do multiple bad things in a row right, because it sounds
like she's done enough these weird oh movies, strange roles, but it's been
in like such small doses. I feel like even with this, like she
would have to do like multiple of these projects in a row that are no
not her core fan base, I mean the MCU core fan base. I
mean, like I don't subscribe to this, but I can see people arguing
this as like it's an MCU kind of jumping the Shark kind of moment of
you're just going for the most popular celebrity in the world, who has the
biggest tour, biggest streams in Spotify. It's just like, well, let's
get them. I think it'd be different if they weren't down, but because
they are down, it's like, well, let's go get Taylor Swift for
this series that really has nothing Like I think everyone's all for the Deadpool or
Seed. I think it's like the whole series as just her. And again
I don't know what her full acting ability is. I I wonder what it
is, and maybe if we lived in a world where they were doing more
one off so like if it was just like an else world, what if
live action, then great, But I would assume they wouldn't, and I
would assume somehow Terry Swift would connect to the MCU, and I don't.
I think there could be elements of it hurting the like Agatha all along or
well, I think that's gonna hurt the brand. So that's a I think
that I think that we're gonna talk about this wonder man. I would like
that could be another one in this tier, like a mistake too, kind
of a strange choice, but that even ironhearder to an extent, like all
those all these shows, I'm not unfortunately we'll see what they were, but
they were green lit in that era where they're like, let's just make as
much content as possible. And I think all those I think of Armoured Wars
comes out like I think that stuff's gonna hurt. It's it's the same thing
like I'm gonna wait till we get close to a February, but like I'm
just gonna ask, because Deadpool tickets went on sale this week, did you
buy your tickets? I did, which I I got them today, which
is like late apparently, and there was like three or four seats left in
my the one showing I didn't look at all the other showings, but that
was the first one I picked. So thankfully I did get it today because
uh or also probably would have had a pretty bad showing or a really bad
seat or something. So yeah, I got in there. So that's good
to see. One thing people stop saying. So you say the theaters because
it's like Barbie and Alpenheim erccount last year and then the theater is still started
to suck again. So not just one big movie is gonna save it,
you know, like it's great that's selling out. But just what I'm asking
is the same thing like Guardians doesn't mean it's a promise, Like I don't
even know if Cat four is gonna do well, like the More and it's
not anything we've seen. We haven't got a teaser. It just was late.
Let me know what a slam dunk because we're it might have seemed like
that a few years ago. And I just like, I'm looking at the
box off of them looking at something. It's just like I don't know a
Cat four is honestly gonna do And that's where and that's where I do see
the business side of Swift could guarantee you views or a sense of money potentially
right, but I just don't know. Does it become almost meany for people
that like Marvel, that like the like if Taylor Swift is bouncing around with
the Avengers at some point, does that become a little too like, Okay,
this isn't really for like, I don't know. I think it's I
think it's risky. I would have to hear the whole pitch, But I
don't know if it's the right move right now. And I think there's a
lot of things that aren't the right move right now. Those shows we're gonna
talk about the writer they just hired for X Men, like I guess saved
as we just mentioned, Like, I feel like the tear list, if
we were to really break it down like that, would this Taylor Swift thing
would be higher on the list than some of these other things. So that's
where it's like, well, it's not that bad of a move for them,
But yeah, you're definitely right. There's like definitely deviation in terms of
the optics of what the MCU is right now, and I don't know it's
it's Yeah, it sounds like Deadpool is gonna be a really good thing in
terms of revitalizing the theater. But once again it's like, yeah, last
year wad Guardians and that did really well. So it's not like they've been
on ice for like seven years or something like that. Like we're still getting
We're getting some some rough movies for sure that aren't doing well, but then
there is ones that are succeeding as well. Last year was not to get
ratio for them, but Guardians was really well received. And it's just not
everything's guaranteed like hit like it used to be, right, but no,
it's just curee. So like, yeah, I'm again I'm all for like
a way and see on on the bubble. I feel like it is like
a like a it sounds like it should be a rumored that's not true,
but I think it is true, And I don't know. I think I
think there is a tight rope to walk there. Like I said, I
would just have to hear the full pitch, especially if they came out and
said this is just some sort of one off, then I wouldn't be a
post. And I'll ask this question now because I think it kind of goes
into you were saying something and then Mike posed it in our patron which you
can go on patron. If you subscribe, you get episodes ad free early
exclusive RSS feed, but you get to send questions to newscasts when we do
them in advance in case you can't watch live. And Mike says, do
you guys think Marvel would be better continuing to make Disney plus shows or just
make instead try making low mid tier budget movies for smaller characters instead. And
that's what you were saying, where you're talking about, like, oh,
what if you just did this but like as a as a movie or something,
And that's almost where I'd be more inclined to and not I personally think
that I think you could do a mix. I'm very surprised both Marvel and
Disney. I know they're like, well, we want to keep it on
the big screen. It doesn't matter for Star or not Marvel, Disney,
Marvel and Star Wars. Like doesn't matter for Star Wars. We even got
a movie in six years, so like you could have done one been fine
and not like we don't know all the numbers, but we see all a
time, like on Amazon Prime or Netflix when a movie comes out does really
well. Like I think both Star Wars and Marvel could have done a couple
two hour movies. I'm not saying every year, but I think I probably
would have preferred a Moonnight movie over the series because I think that what they
end up doing as a series might have heard it and I think there's something
that do work better. So I think I would like to see them do
a mix in the future, but I don't know if they're gonna do that.
Yeah. I The streaming side of it is so difficult because for a
movie, it's so easy for us specifically, where we can look at what
was the budget of this thing? Okay, we can estimate the marketing is
going to be double whatever we'll call it. That we have like a rough
number we can run with. Okay, the box office did that much.
We can look at how successful was Boom move on A nice topic was streaming.
It's so difficult. We see like some of these viewership numbers, but
then we like don't really get them, or we don't get them on a
week to week basis, and then they look really low. But then it's
like, okay, well, what was the budget of this? And then
how many people like gott into the service, how many people stay, how
many people subscribe for this? Because of Moon, how many people like stay
subscribe for an extra month because it was six weeks rather than just being a
one movie drop. So it's so much harder to look at it. But
yeah, it just it just seems like these shows aren't doing as much as
they originally wanted them to to wanted them to. But you know, like
it's more holistic than that with Disney Plus because it's not just a Marvel streaming
service, and like they don't have to keep doing that. They just have
to keep feeding it with all sorts of things. That's just the I don't
know, I guess the danger with these streaming services, with Netflix and all
of them is like they just got to put so much freaking content in there.
They got old stuff, they gotta put new stuff. They got to
put shows, movies, specials, documentaries, they got to fill it with
all sorts of random things. And so you want all your big brands to
be contributing in some way. And we yeah, we've talked about this before
in the news guys that like seems like the special presentations are kind of going
away, which who knows, we'll see if that. I mean, we
haven't got a confirmed the next one so it looks like it's kind of the
case. But yeah, I don't know. I feel like even if they
did take something like a Moonnight and turned into a movie, I guess I
am curious, like I, it maybe would have had more viewership than any
given episode, but would have had less overall. Yeah, would people have
subscribed for that over that? It's it's really hard to say. So sorry,
what was Mike's original? When you throw it at me again? Just
which route would you rather them start going now? Disney Plus or the movies?
Right? I mean I get for me personally, I do like having
the variety. I think they can achieve different goals and have different pacing,
diferent types of characters, and ideally different types of budgets. And they saw
a secret invasion That show had an insanely high like movie budget. I don't
know what the heck happened there, but I personally, as a fan,
I like the variety of it. I don't know. It might be better
for them to just keep going ahead with the movies at this point though,
or just really scale back on the shows. But then like X Men ninety
seven comes out and that's huge, so it's like, Okay, well,
now do we put all our eggs in the animated basket? Even if what
if is I don't know it. I'm sure it had fine numbers, but
not X men ninety seven numbers. So it's it's really it's really hard to
say. I think they should probably Well, they had that statement recently of
like, Okay, we're gonna slow down in general. I think that's good
for them, But then like the schedule for next year is that there's four
movies coming out, right, so it's like, well, are you slowing
down or not? Like I feel like one of those things is probably gonna
get kicked. Ultimately, they just need to slow down a little bit,
not to burn people out, make sure the quality, the content of the
quality is good, make sure the CGI is looking good, make sure that
the artists and stuff aren't just destroyed and making these these things and whatnot,
and just keep the variety going. But I don't know, like, how
is Disney plus doing these days? Have you seen any numbers? For that
reason? I think the past few quarters it's like dipped in subscriptions and stuff.
So I think I think they're trying stuff. But I'm personally at the
point now where I'm like unsubscribing, subscribing based on specific things coming out,
and for me it's usually just like do I have to review something? All
subscribe for a bit. So I'm in a bit of a different use case.
But yeah, for a bit there, I was just like, yeah,
I'll just keep it constantly. But now I'm think a little more selective
because there's so many services out there, because there's no even until at least
I'm sure maybe what if might drop in the fall, but until September,
there's no nothing announce that we're going to talk about. But yeah, for
Marvel specifically, yeah, yeah, what I would say is just I say
keep the course. I think the I think Mike, you're right. If
they do the movies, lower budget is the way to go. That's why
I would pitch that. I don't know if you want to do another series,
but I feel like if you want to do your first ever Disney plus
Marvel movie, maybe it's a risk because it would be radar. But I
would say, give John Burnhaal a good hour and a half. Punish your
movie, make it simple, make it a John Wick style where he's just
gonna go kill some people. For X Y and z and that's it,
like make it twenty million page on perfall to ten million and then the other
ten million for your stunt team whatever, like like let me look up,
like what the first John Wick budget was. I know, inflation everything,
But here's this is a potentially big, uh big question here. But like
this has been a thing in the gaming space, is that more and more
of these companies are like Xbox has been putting games on PlayStation, Sony's putting
more and more things on PC, like Ghosa's Tsushima finally just came there as
well. So these big companies like putting there what should be exclusive stuff elsewhere.
Do you think that's something that like Disney could do, Like if they
did a Punisher movie, could they also put it on some other streaming service
as well to like make some extra bank from it. So it's not just
banking on people subscribing or staying sobscribe just to watch that one thing on their
own. Absolutely, Warren Broough is already doing in America. What is it.
I don't know the other ones, but at least the two Wonder Woman
movies, they're on Disney Plus currently, and are they also on their own
one or is it that I don't know for sure. I don't know if
it shared or if they took it. They probably I would imagine, took
it off Max for a while and then just put it on there. So
I could definitely see them doing that, like it's the same company, but
they kind of tiptoed around that with Echo. Right now they do own the
majority of Hulu, but still that could be something of you know, X,
Y and Z, we're gonna premiere it here and there. So I
think they'd probably still put on their own service first, but if someone give
them enough money or again, they could rent out down line. Let's say
for the first year John Borthnell's Punisher movies on Disney Plus, and then you're
gonna see on Netflix, you're gonna see it on HBO Max, And that
to me is like a character that works, and the other ones are not
low budget. That's a tough thing. I Like, I thought, you
know, like a ghost writer, but it's well, no, he's skull
Guy and then Young Avengers. But that's like to be like. I think
that's why I think Punisher would be perfect because it's a notable character, notable
actor, but you could keep that budget and first john Wick twenty to thirty
million go for that, Like, yeah, that's the bar, you know,
like you just and because just I think as far as you make it
as much as a show would cost, what is what's gonna happen? You
know, because then worst case scenario, I guess people don't watch it.
But like that happens with other things, right, And Mike says, they're
like, oh, Marvels did very well in streaming, which I can believe
because it did so poor in theaters I think many people. And that's yeah,
that's a huge I don't think it's the only problem, but like that's
been the big debate this week is Fall Guy was out for less I think
it was seventeen days. It's on vod today, which is yeah. And
the more and more that happens, the more and more people are knocking to
see these movies out there on the fence about because they're being rewarded for doing
so. So they just spent twenty bucks for a movie. For they it
could be a you could have a whole dorm of guys that college, eight
of you and spend twenty bucks and watch Fall Guy versus going and spending over
two hundred dollars, you know, done, And that's why it's just like,
why, like seventeen days is ridiculous. I don't think that's the only
thing. I think that's like saying eight college guys as your well, because
I can't use the family example, right, because I can't be like kids
get together and watch fall guy, right, But let's just say you and
your friends want to watch it. Ah, well, it's gonna be like
like I said, tickets being lots of money, the amount of stuff streaming,
there's tons of problems. But I do think that's the problem because I've
done that myself, where I just go, like, even like Abigail,
I watched it last week, the same thing when Taylor he wanted to see
and I didn't get around to. But it's just like, I know it's
gonna be on streaming for a few weeks, so why should I go and
miss two to three hours of my time with Emily and the kids or whatever,
and just wait too. I can watch Wait for three weeks and watch
it when they're at work, and then you feel good. You're like,
oh yeah, I pay for the subscription every month, and I'm getting like
a good, juicy value out of it in this month. But yeah,
I think I like your example with I think Punisher is once again a great
example for the budget reasons you mentioned because of the John wickness of it,
but also that's now that that's all on Disney. Plus someone watches that movie
on a whim and then they go, damn, I wanna I wanna watch
this show now, and then you know, maybe that takes them a few
weeks and then they're they're if they were gonna dip and just watch this one
thing, maybe they're stuck in now and then oh, I gotta watch Daredevil
because he was in that show, And then they watched Daredevil, and then
they're watching Daredevil Born again. Then they're watching all these other things that Daredevil's
been in. And I feel like that in theory should Daisy chain to some
extent. So I think there are certain movies that would make a lot of
sense for that, and maybe maybe the crossover stuff or things where they can
see the other content that those characters are in, maybe that is the way
to go. But yeah, I'm I keep going back to that Moonight example
you pitch because I wonder what the alternate world would have look like with uh,
with that as a movie on Disney Plus. Instead, they should at
least try it once or twice, right, yeah, do Moonnight Season two
is a movie? Like try that. But like that's where it's like TV
shows definitely have a way, because if you do them right, people will
stay subscribed, right, that's the idea. You don't want to do the
churn. But I still think movies, like what you you just point out
and just eve an example, movies can spread in a way where how many
times have you heard a pitch or seen a preview and then if you go,
oh, it's a show, you go, well, I don't know
if I have time to add that because I got so much else now,
right, But if it's a movie, looks cool, oh hour and a
half, two hours, that's easy. I can knock that out, right.
So I think there's reported evidence of that happening to me. Multiple times.
We're watching the trailer and then I'm like, oh, this is a
show. I'm out here, so yeah, and that's what I'm not saying
show. Yeah, oh Gary, all the show is because when you do
like an X Men and that's different animation. But the next time we do
get a great Disney Plus show, like a Wanta vision, like a Loki
where there's lots of water cooler talk. That's when it works, right,
That's when it's like all people are playing subscribe, they're talking about weekly.
It's bad when it doesn't work. But that's why. I mean, like
TV's can do that, and then movie can give you something else. So
is there anybody else, like, let's say, even just establish MC you
think could be a good movie, like a character that we've had before you,
Yeah, like some of it, unless you have a one that hasn't
been in the MC that you think could be a big like a good pitch
to do. Let me see what are things that are coming out soon?
I Hawkeye would have been a good one, but that's the show we're gonna
talk about. Season two is coming out supposedly, so we're gonna talk about
in the second. But yeah, that would have been a good one.
I mean, unfortunately, I do look at Blade and I feel like that
could be, Like I don't know, there's different ways you go, Like
that could be a huge budget thing with all sorts of crazy CGI or it
could be kind of a more down to earth sort of thing. I mean,
there's definitely all a room with like different X Men characters, which is
something that they want to do more of. Right. Also, to circle
way back to the Swift thing, what I don't want to ever hear because
I think it was a mistake. In the long run, I'm happy we
have them, But the same way as that, Marvel never had a Blade
plan until Marshally met with Kevin Fighting and said he want to do blade,
and they said, let's do it, and now they've spent over half a
decade trying to figure out how to do Blade. I hope it was not
try Swift wants a meeting with you, she really wants to do this.
I hope it was more something natural where let's talk ideas and see stuff.
I hope it's not just she wants to do this and then Figg's like and
Disney's like, you know, figured it out, Like yeah, great,
Like because I get why Foggy did the Marshall Lee is Blade thing, but
he shouldn't have agree to If I was gonna take this long, they should
have figured this out way sooner than they announced that twenty nineteen. That that
should not have tooken this long, you know, mm hmm. Yeah.
That was my last one on that because you remind me of Blade and it's
like that's what that story was giving me flashbacks too, was oh, yeah,
he wants to do it, and we're here six years later, still
no Blade. But yeah, I mean I was just once again looking at
all the things coming out, like arm Wars. You mentioned Ironheart, if
that was turned into a movie, It's like, I don't know if those
were turned into movies for Disney Plus. I feel like that would the optics
for that would for me would be that they're just kind of putting it there
to die because they don't want to put the movie marketing budget on. So
I do think it is like obviously a difficult decision like what movie is intriguing
enough but not quite intriguing that it needs to be in the on the big
screen and not so that I do get when that was when the reason Armour
Wars supposedly became movie because like, well, budgets a lot. It's like,
well, I could believe that if it's like an Ironman type movie,
you can't make that for cheap. So there's a strategy here too, where
you put one of these movies out on Disney Plus. Uh, it does
really well, people love it, and then you release it later on the
baser and like there's been so many re releases of things lately, and like
the Spider Man ones and for example, right like did really well, like
the old Toby movies. Right, so something obviously that's different as twenty years
in nostalgia, but same situation here. If you've had that Moon Night movie
go on Disney. Plus, let's say it was a huge success, people
really loved it. Maybe a year later the one year anniversary. Maybe that's
a year where they only have two Marvel movies coming out, so they're a
little bit low on the output. And then you instead in that like July
month that's empty. You could bring it back, put it in the theater
or something like that if if it seems like the interest for it is there.
So once again I feel like they should, Yeah, they should experiment
with that is if you just do it once, it's like you're not really
getting the data you need. You got to do it a few times,
so it's it's definitely not easy to make those decisions. And Superman Mic in
the chat says they should make more spend our shows and from characters, introduce
some movies like WandaVision, Loki Hawky Less, Moonnight, Miss Marvel. I've
had that theory for a while. Just even ratings wise too. It's a
good idea. Even though Moonnight pulled Moon Iight did really well. Whatever we
felt about the show ratings wise, that did well. But I do believe
in general the recipe should always introduce them in the large ms to you and
then do a show, not the way Miss Marvel or even not Secret Visions
to a point, but that idea of that storyline. I think there's certain
things that just aren't based for us, like like with Guy and like I'll
start them as a t show and then work backwards. You know, I
don't know how they'll work with a movie. I guess maybe there's there's one
that I think also could have not well, maybe it would have done better.
It's Miss Marvel, the lowest rated live action one. I can't remember
what it ended up being. I think it's Secret Vision did better. But
you know what one I don't know if that's show need to be that long.
People loved it, so I know I'm in the minority, but make
that, you know, somehow, just find make it an hour forty five.
Miss Marvel. I bet it probably does better viewers. You mean on
Disney Plus, not yeah, Disney Plus. Yeah, Disney Plus. Yeah,
because movie wise, you know it's but Disney Plus. If you mark
this Disney or Marvel's first Disney Plus movie and make a big deal, you
could kind of spoil it. Bree Larson's gonna be it, Like, I
think it would have done better than the show. I really do. Yeah.
I think you know with these shows too, like there was the different
caliber and it really I think for the most part, it comes down to
who's writing the script for it. When you have a show like X Men
ninety seven, like like WandaVision Loki, like some of these Star Wars ones
like probably more like and or something like that, like these water cooler type
shows where it's like you want the weekly element of that because people are just
hyped and talking about it week on weekend. That brings more people in as
the week's go by. I feel like Miss Marvel wasn't really one of those
shows. It wasn't like ending on huge cliffhangers. There were a couple other
than that one when she went back in time that was I think the one
that was like, oh, crap, what's going on here? But the
rest of them are pretty cookie. But I feel like some of these other
shows I've just mentioned are like, yeah, week to week, like that's
constantly happening, and that makes sense for the hype. I had that too,
right, Maybe that's why Moon I also did good numbers, because obviously
it's a very mysterious show. Yeah. Yeah, it's like Oscar Isaac,
bigger star than you know, like a mail or a male. I put
a mall like, no, on my what am I? I'm always screw
over name? What's name? What's this? Smarl's name, real life name?
That's his name? A mon Villani my head? Yeah, come on,
like that's why. But Moon I also did have that mystery box selement
right wherever week? What's real? What's this? We're going into different personalities
and stuff. So that's the other thing that I could go, Okay,
look at it and should this be a movie or show? No, in
the sense of oh, it's a movie, and spread it out like is
there any big cliffing or TV showisms And if there's not, then yeah,
make it a movie and see what happens. Because I still have never watched
it. I want to. Supposedly there's a fan out there that made a
really good edit of the Obi Wan Show into a movie, and everyone says
it's like the superior version of that. I have it downloaded on this very
mac and I'm waiting for a chance to down because that's another one that you
can just tell that this should not in a show. It was stretched too
much. There's another character that this was a big like. That's another one
where Star Wars should have done that too. They should have. Okay,
if you're not go, don't get me started. The fact that they never
did Obi won the Theater. I think that's a movie that actually would have
pulled money. Like I think because a solo that scared them, but this
was different. It's Ewan coming back. I think they would have done well.
But either way, that to me would have been another good experiment of
Okay, big character, big actor coming back. Let's try this is a
Disney plus movie and see what happens. You know what they did, and
they did a show that ended up having kind of mediocre returns not ratings wise,
it did very well. It's their highest Star Wars show. It's right
behind Loki as number two. But yeah, even if you pulled that one,
like, they still had insanely good consistency for t like Star Wars TV
shows. They I feel like, just had a constant drip feed for like
almost all of Disney Plus is existence, Like after Mandalorian there's a bit of
a lull, but then yet for the last while it's been super consistent.
So even if you pulled that, what was that a six week er or
an eight week er for six Yeah? Yeah, so if you follow they
did it on the big screen, you still would have had an amazing looking
release schedule for that year. Yeah. And it's funny because the first two
episodes they did the whole in the theaters. We didn't get that, and
it was a two episode drop, so it was only five week would have
too at the theater. I don't think I've heard about that. I think
it was one of those screening like I don't even know if they charged.
I think it was just like a fan screen, like you know when we
saw some movies. Yeah, so you don't really know. Didn't they hear
the money grubbers. I'm surprised they didn't charge people. They won that buzz
out there, you know, so wow, huh, speaking of buzz,
this babe has the opposite. I don't know, I'm gonna pull up this
guy's name. So we talked about a couple of weeks ago, and this
is why we always talked about the Cee Tier rumors and stuff, because it
ended up being a true rumor that they have announced I guess not fully announced
here, but it's now the s Tier Scooper are reporting this writer for the
X Men. So before I get the name here, it's reported that.
Let's see, so it's still as of right now. Sounds like the plan
is for this film still to be after Secret War. So even though they're
getting a writer. That's the other thing this report that now they are hunting
for a director, which is kind of funny because like, well, obviously
that would be the next step, right, I would imagine. But still,
I guess in the MCU world this strategy from Disney, Yeah, I
guess in the MC world, it means kind of like, well, they're
not gonna get the They're not going to cast the X Men first, They're
gonna get the director. So it's like makes sense, right, Like there's
a couple of times they did that, but it's still playing sounds like it's
to be a Secret Wars and it's the guy. His name is Mike Michael
Leslie. Uh. He has written which this is is on my list.
I'm gonna check it out. It's a TV show that has Florence Pugh and
hence to your name, the the Little Drummer Grun. I did hear good
things about that. Other things he were in was last year The Hunger Games
about of songbirds and snakes. He Macbeth. He also wrote Assassin's Creed and
that's about it. There's a few other things, but those are mostly short,
so those are kind of hard to gauge. And then he does have
Now You See Me three coming out, so I won't see that, but
I'll have to see what other people gauge that as. And I think it's
this has been the same thing like the Swift thing met. I think this
has actually been met with a lower reception because I don't think it's that it's
all worth screwed, because it's like someone pointed out today, like you can
have someone write this and then you look at their credits ten years later and
they do something great, right like look at the Rooster Brother the same thing
they had done community and you mean to pre and then they do endgame and
civil War like of course anybody can do this, but I think it's more
just that people and you know, maybe I'm biased too, and maybe or
it's just the people I follow are just a similar mindset. Just I think
people were kind of hoping with the X Men, we were gonna get a
bit more hotspall off the gate of like a name that would go maybe not
on our tour, maybe not like a Tarantino, but just something where you
go, oh, this is really exciting. And I feel like this is
just kind of a paint by numbers. This is what the MCU usually does
is we're just gonna get a writer that has some cred you know, some
good stuff, some bad stuff, and we have to wait and see.
And that's about it, right, And that's where it's like until I get
a director, because my hope is it was gonna be like a you know,
not that it's great to say his name now, but like Avengers with
Joss When, or like Black Panther with Coogler, where they wrote and directed.
So we got this great director that also writes, and I go,
oh, great, and who knows this guy could write the script, they
could hire a director and they could go, you know what, could I
do A passover? Of course? But for me it's it's not like a
it didn't get me jazz, and I I just think again, as I'm
not trying to be the oh what is that expression when it's you foretell something
and you try to make it happen. Oh, self fulfilling prophecy. I
don't want to be. But I just feel like after ninety seven, as
I've said, either almost every week, I'm just so worried now and that
movie comes out of everyone's gonna be like, well, it's not ninety seven
and this thing really sucks now, you know, Like I feel like that's
gonna be new bar and this writer doesn't get me too excited, But I'm
going to try and be as you know, confident as possible, like I
guess, for example, like I didn't love The Hunger Games with me.
I liked enough, but they did write like a young cast. So he's
used to writing younger characters. And I do feel like they will write the
X Men at least some of them to be younger. So there's there's some
of that. So it's not like all bad, but it's not a name
that I get gets me juicing for the potential mcux men coming up in a
couple of years here. Yeah, no, I hate to be an echo
chamber on this, especially when we don't have a Kirkland Taylor here to balance
this out. But I'm in the same similar boat as you. When I
saw this guy's name and just looked through his IMDb and stuff, I was
getting Jeff Loven his vibes, you know the thing. And then you know,
I look deeper and it's like, okay, yeah, this little Drummer
Girls show. This sounds interesting. I want to go check this out.
And I didn't even hear about this until Sorry also side tangent, I was
looking at that, you know, Florence Pugh, Michael Shannon's in there,
Alex Car's guard. Have you ever s Have you seen what Alx scarsguard's picture
is on his IMDb page. It's like the suit jacket and he's in a
boxers or whatever. Yeah, yeah, he's been asked about that. He's
a guy. I just like it, so okay. I never does he
choose that the agents do they? Well, you can like if you're probably
a younger son, really weird pictures that people have, and I assumed it
was just like I guess, not quite like Wikipedia, because then you have
people trolling all the time, putting people's crazy faces in there. But like
next year when we do the like full release of Adrenic Crow, when it's
just gonna be out on VOD all the time, we'll have an IMDb page
and of course will pick the pictures. But usually once you're big enough,
you just have somebody do that for you. But he just enjoys that picture,
so I love that for him. But yeah, and even there in
the chats, you're bad, Mike. That little drummer girl is very,
very good, That's what I've heard. So that's a good sign. Mike
also a big fan of Songbirds and Snake because I can remember, Yeah,
so, uh, did you end up seeing that one? I thought you
did. I have not got around to it, Okay, I think I
was. I think maybe originally was like gonna be Taylor's pick or something for
the mess it was on this It was on the tip of my tongue,
but that I never got around to its, right, I got so at
some point I'd like to check it out, but it's the third best Hunger
Games movie, okay, out of five four so it's five, so it's
right in the middle of the pack. Ye take those. Yeah. Yeah,
So I'm not super hopeful of this, but it is also largely an
unknown quantity. All I've seen is Assassin's Screed, which I don't know it's
been, like, can you believe that came on the second year of Geek
first? Oh man, Yeah, it's a long time ago. Now,
that a long time ago. It was a very very long time agoing It's
like, I don't remember what I didn't like about that movie. I have
to go back and listen to our review, and I'm sure writing it had
something to do with it. But also that movie went through all sorts of
I feel like development, health things from what I can remember, So like,
who knows how much of the issues of that were strictly this guy's writing
words on pages versus all the other cogs that go into the machine warts makes
one of these things, you know. So and that was also a decade
ago pretty much to this point, so maybe he's got a lot better in
that time too, which certainly rid a lot of other things. So so
I don't know I guess I'm trying to be hopeful in this way, but
it is it is a weird movie to me to have a very question mark
type pick on there. And once again, maybe he's a question mark because
I just haven't, you know, Binged through all of his projects. But
it does seem like a bit of a strange pick. I think I would
if I was in Disney's shoes here, want someone with more experience, especially
it's like it's like the swift thing. For me, it's different if this
was twenty nineteen era, where they're just on a roll and you just go,
well, I trust them. We have enough reasons past three years to
be weary of some things, right, And that's where for me it'd be
like, hey, maybe you can sludge the budget on this project on that.
But for X Men, which everyone deems is like, well, this
is the future of the MCU. You got to get this one right,
because I legitimately think of that movie is like a not even a dud.
If it's like, oh, it was fine, I think so many people
are gonna check. I think that that first X movie has to hit like
Avengers twenty twelve or Guardians twenty fourteen, like I think it really has to
come out to make people. Not that you want to see everything the MCU,
but that main thing you want to be it has to be pulling you.
And that's why I think it has to really really hit. And it's
the danger if it doesn't. Like you could argue that way with like,
look what happened with before the major stuff, even with the King and am
Man stuff that almost felt like a bad taste a peels well for Kang because
that movie was so ment So many people that I talked to were done with
King, even to the point of like little stuff of well he lost it
in his first movie, What do I care? And I talked to so
many people that are like, I don't care about Kang, and it's like
Man for Care that has so many excitement. One movie they killed it and
all the other stuff happened and they got rid of it. Well, maybe
they're going to retool the character, but Steel like it. First impressions are
everything. You can maybe get them back, but X Men it's just and
then you'll get that history of Man like you do not want the revision's history
of Ball. I guess Fox X Men wasn't that bad, you know,
like that's you don't want that, you know what's gonna happen. I mean,
yes, X Men is very much an uphill battle from the perspective of
just, yeah, you have all these established characters. People love a lot
of the castings here in both eras. You know, there's preferences here there,
there's changes and things that happen. But like the coming back this year
like freshly, you know, exactly. Yeah, so it's a lot to
overcome, uh, just in that way alone. So I don't know,
I feel like it. And like there's so many characters, Like there's so
many ways you could take the story that it's so much easier to pull off
a origin story for Captain America than it is to do an ensemble movie with
characters who have not been established yet, like with I mean specific actors in
these roles, and you know, maybe they pull in Hugh Jackman and he's
in this or something, so there you go, that would be a major
thing. But then you also have the expectations higher if you do something like
that as well. And then if even if just yeah, soon after Deadpool,
if you bring in someone else in that role as Wolverine, like good
luck doing that. They didn't even do that in the Fox movies, you
know, like they just did the way to start with him. So so
yeah, it's it's gonna be really tricky. So I guess I'm very curious
to see who they pick for the uh I mean for the casting of course,
but the directing as well. And uh, hopefully this one doesn't have
all this sort of just like so many movies lately named Stephen, like oh,
the writer has been switched out and all a new director in here,
the rewriting the script. They're delaying and they're kicking it back, and if
this one is one that they are like putting their foot on the gas to
get it out at asap, Like well, X Men ninety seven is still
a big deal, and they're balancing all these other projects that they're and they're
trying to slow down, Like it just seems like there's a lot of dangerous
territory ahead of them to have this come out and be successful. And I
don't know, maybe like obviously they've been thinking about X Men for a long
time. They bought that a long time ago. Now they've had it in
the back of their head. It's not like they're just suddenly on May twenty
first, twenty twenty four, starting to think about X Men. But yeah,
I worry a bit if they're just going all in on this and like
putting other things to the side just to make it happen. Like what if
maybe there's like a better director doing another MCU thing right now that would have
been the perfect X Men pick, But like they're all kind of tied up
right now because they hadn't really planned that far ahead or something like that.
Well, I think that's at least One thing that does give me some hope
is if the planet is supposed to be Secret Wars as of right now,
which I don't even know if it's gonna hit Secret Wars is twenty twenty six,
that would tell me, like this XIT movie is still like three years
away. That almost gives me some calm of this guy's like, let's say
this is the writer that sticks with it. This guy has like two and
a half years to crack the code, maybe you know, like he did,
Like this is like hopefully a good way of we don't want you to
rush. We're hiring you two years in advance, get us a good X
Men thing, because then it's also at that time too, and maybe this
is the Devil's advocate. They also have time to pivot. If they get
this guy's script, they go not good. It's not like with a man,
right, like Jeff Love this was writing Avengers five and then they kicked
him. They got new people, right, So they're trying to avoid that
where they want to have enough time where hey, in a year, if
this guy's script is there, good, we can go to someone else.
And it's not us trying to like struggle and be like, oh, we
got to hit this date because I don't even know if Secret War is gonna
hit twenty six, Like that's a I don't know, that feels two years
away. Yeah, it's starting to feel it's starting to feel tricky. Yeah,
you know, who knows. I'd like it, but uh yeah,
we'll see. And I'm happy that. Seemingly I would imagine we'll got mune
projects. But I'm always in the camp of I don't want I know people
have pitched that they should do the X Men in the same way as Avengers,
where you get like a Cyclops movie in a Wolverine movie. I don't
want that. I want the crew together. I think there's some you can
do but I don't want the full Avengers lead up again. I think this
is a crew that you do mostly together, at least the start, So
I think that's hard to do at this point in time. Yeah, especially
because that's not like Yeah. The established norm for for this series and my
last plug too is check out on Patreon. We have fa or not Fun.
We have three episodes where we can asked over thirty MutS, and there's
hundreds of actors, literally hundreds of actors. We talk about we cast the
X Men ninety seven roster. We cast a bunch of X Men villains.
We cast side characters X ninety seven in like a ninety seven aesthetic, but
also who we think would be great picks for the MCU. So all the
big mutes you think of, we cast them, Me, Dylan Kerglint,
and there are some fun ones there, so go check that out. All
in the Phase two tier and there's three episodes, so it's about speak of
that. I forget. If this was a brendon ours, it must have
been a bread and butter. So remember when we did like the ten years
we planned out like the next ten years of Marvel, like all the movies
and TV projects that were gonna happen, right, Yes, it was.
Yeah, was that three years ago that we did that? Now? Like
we still have a Google doc of it because that is all. Oh,
it's definitely out there. But yeah, I definitely we should definitely go through
that at some point. But maybe it hasn't been long enough yet. It
feels like it's been a while ago now, but so much has changed in
the realm of the MCU since, like the information we had when we were
recorded that one MC ten years so I won't so you can go there.
Yeah, we did this in two thousand and twenty three is when we planned.
When we did that last year, it must have been last year.
If not, I was late two thousand. Are you sure someone hasn't just
like opened it last year and that's why it's showing that date. Uh,
dyl Muss is the owner. No changes since you last feared it. I
did just click on it, set my screw it. But just because in
our list we have twenty twenty three listed and it has all the projects that
were coming up, so maybe it was twenty twenty two. Wow, So
it feels like that was a long time ago now, but it does.
I I feel like there's a ton has changed in terms of MC release dates
in that time, but so well, it is funny. We did say
that The X Men were going to come out in twenty twenty seven, and
as of right now, if it if Secret Wars were, if this were
everything that goes planned, it would be what was the Kang Dynasty release date
on that thing? Let's see here, that was okay, probably twenty twenty
four, right or twenty twenty five. Let's see Avengers. Oh no,
we definitely, uh, this must have been twenty twenty two. Then we
had Avengers five at twenty twenty nine, so we did this before the comic
con. Oh wow, yeah, we were totally different with that thing,
So we should put that in the description or something. H people check that
episode? Was that, I'm sure a fun one to listen back to you
even yeah, even now, I'm like, I want to listen and see
what we were thinking there, because now that's something I was wrong on too.
I I think at one point said that they should wait long for Avengers,
had a Young Avengers in there beforehand or something we did? Yeah,
we did have I saw a young Avengers came. But still and it does
have a lot to do with the writing, but how the MCUs played out,
I think they should have done an Avengers sooner than we have. I
think that was a mistake, so I think they they bungled that, but
quick a few to the Marvel Last week they at the Upfront they announced Daredevil's
coming out March twenty twenty five, as right now, it's only nine episodes.
Was not set if that's the season one or in total, so that
went from that eighteen to nine, which is probably probably smarter, you know,
playet safe. They announced Agatha is coming out twenty twenty four September,
so this year as the title of Agatha all along, so that Ironheart is
confirmed for next year. Apparently the reason they pushed it because they want to
be closer to Armored Wars, which to me is still a movie that's never
gonna happen, but I'm glad they're still trying. And then this is probably
coming from a C tier rumor, but you know someone nonetheless that has a
track record this is Hawkeye season two details, So it sounds like that's the
work and that I've heard a lot more around But where is okay here?
It is so supposedly right now that Clint Barden is going to come back,
and Hayley Seinfeld's going to be there as Kate Bishop. Let's see they the
source of that. The second season would be inspired by The Raid, where
most of the action would be set in one low location where Kate Bishop and
Clint Barton would be stuck. Also, a big role would go to a
Hawkeye's brother's Barney, who is like he's also an archer, but he's kind
of a like he's not like an anti hero. Yeah he's not an anti
here, but he's a questionable guy, maybe a Jack Sparrow like when we're
talk about Pirates a second, where you know he's might do good, but
he'll steal, Like, he'll steal things, he'll commit some crime. Yeah,
there you go. So how do you feel about that? Off?
Like one season, I don't know, you never see them rain, but
the Raid is like this classic action movie but it is like a mixed martial
arts, big stunt movie where a guy has to go up all these levels
and it's just one billding where he's fighting people. And that sounds like the
idea here as that's would be season two, so clearly a good savor on
the budget and maybe it's like a I don't know, maybe it's too ensured
picture. When you say that, is you remember the movie the platform,
that Netflix movie that means you s Equals come out this year, Seagulls coming
out this year, there's a sequel. Noo, Yeah, yeah, I
remember the picture when you say that, But no, I don't know.
I like that. It's it feels like very Mortal Kombat to me. Just
climb in the tower whatever they call it in that. And also this could
maybe help with Jamie Renner. I don't know how much action he can do,
but I feel like one location would help him along with that because I
remember we had that. Yeah, he almost died a couple of years ago,
so true. Yeah, I mean you got that, you got like
squid Game, Like, I feel that's just not what I would have pictured
for this season two of this. I guess it could work. I guess
it could be interesting, it could be fun. I guess I'm worried that
it's all just gonna be like on the volume and then it's gonna look like
some weird like hope not like it's just gonna be like concrete backgrounds, Like
why don't you guys just find an actual warehouse they will or something. Maybe
they will the time you know they did with a Daredevil. They're shooting in
the streets again, right, so maybe they'll go, oh, hey,
let's do that and find a where. Plus they say one location, but
I guarantee you'd get like flashbacks or other scenes that happen. Yeah, I
feel like I want some of her out in the world, and I would
also maybe want to see a couple like I want to see of course,
Florence Pew appear again as Elena, like I would love to see him on
because like, where else is she gonna be? I'd love to see her
pop in out of their homies according to the Marvels, even just for an
episode or something. So I don't know, I'm i'm I'm I fee on
that part of it. But honestly, just the prospect of getting a season
two that I didn't think we would get one, just based on how things
have been sounding lately. But I really enjoyed that show and watch it again
and just to enjoyed it even more the second time, So that's exciting to
me. I don't know how if I don't know how much I feel about
this, Uh, Barney Barton, trick shot guy. We'll see what goes
on there. That just seems like a weird thing of like, how has
that not been mentioned before in the history of you, you know, I'll
remember the convision's history. Little Hawk guy was single for four years and then
he was all a sudden married with kids. Right, so it's like a
it fits with Hawkeye. I just Elena kind of came out of nowhere after
all this time. She definitely came out of nowhere. Oh I never had
a family growing up. You had a fake momy and cast off the top
of your head. Whould you cast as as Jeremy Renner's brother. I have
to be like, it sucks that he was back. He was really buff
from the pictures I see, but I feel like every Marvel character is buff
when you just google the comic version. It doesn't suck because I know the
snyer I people were happy. But in a world where he wasn't, Ben
Affleck would make a great Barney Barton because I just feel like that Barney.
Yeah, and I don't think you've seen the movie, but they had really
good chemistry in the town together, him and Renner, like in a friendly
brotherly sort of ways. So that is actually like right off the top where
I could see would be really good subs Mark Wahlberg, which I do not
want really at all. Give me Glenn Powell for a trick shot. No,
he's gotta be cyclass right, he's gotta he's not gonna go. He's
too buff for Cyclops, but just enough. Cyclops can be bigger than Logan
for once. You know, it's fine. Okay, Yeah, that's he.
No, he's too Maybe that's a good pick. Maybe that's a good
pick. I'm gonna put in blonde grizzled actors see Scars Guard. Throw one
of them in there. Wilson, we already got him. I'll see you
what Carl Urban, Yeah, come back for a second role. Oh boy,
Yeah, No, I'm I'm happy be the Homelander guy. He can
come in and do a No. I think he's rumored to be joined the
DCU apparently this week. That's the big hot rumor going around that it's not
exclusive true. No, James Gunning, He's like, no, no more,
I saw it happen. Yeah, No, I really don't know.
I think they'd probably get some I don't know, you get someone with good
chemistry. If Rent or I feel you gotta make him feel it could be
like a one off kind of character that like dies in it, or he
could be something they want to integrate into the greater MCU. So it's a
but, like I don't know, I want it to be about Kay Bishop.
You know, you'd be a dier, you'd be dire. Yeah,
you'd be a dire And also same thing, I'm still wondering what we do
with Hawkeye because I thought Hawkeye could end here. Yeah, like I figured
he would appear in a second season, but I guess I wouldn't have assumed
that he would be protagonist energy in the same way he was in the first
season. Well, I guess the brother. That kind of makes sense though,
right If Kate's looking into some things and she finds out it's Barney Bardon
and that's why she would go to Clint. That actually does make sense to
me. That's how you get him back in the action. That's his brother.
And then it's like, kind of it makes sense because again I've said
this before, I want him have the cap ending. I don't want Secret
Wars and Clint Barton dying like that's not the ending. I want for that
character. I think some characters should get a happy ending, and the same
way Cap got his, I think he should. I think, yeah,
like especially like we don't have enough family man people in there. Yeah,
and he lost him already for five years. Like to me, that would
just be one of those like, uh, bummer for the sake of being
bummers. You know, I wouldn't appreciate that. So there's a bigger fish
to fry if you want a big emotional death on screen. Yeah, and
anything of the shows Dared Agatha, Ironheart before we move on. Mmm.
No, I guess this Daredevil thing. I probably talked about it and I
just can't remember. But like the season one is being split, like why
are they not just doing two seasons? Well, it's not split anymore.
They didn't. They didn't. They didn't even film those other episodes. That's
why now it's only down to nine. Okay. So I was wikipeding around
and I saw that there was like it was two sets of that that was
the plan. That's not the plan anymore. No, now the plant is
just the nine. And they didn't even say like, oh, this is
season one. I think they're just gonna do this and let's see what the
reaction is. I yeah, I you know, I want all the Devil
Dared if I can get. But that twenty seven episodes, whoever was that
was too many? So I'm I'm I'm happy with this smarter Hopefully that means
it's easier to do higher success rate and then they we get a second season
and all that. But uh yeah, the rest of this nothing too crazy
there. I guess I'm not shocked by the Iron Heart kick Agatha. It's
coming out d a man like, we will watch it and review it,
but I just think that, like it's I don't think I do know this.
I'm excited to see Aubrey Plaza and what's his name? Is in there?
The crazy guy what's his name? Crazy guy Eric Andre? He's in
there, right, Oh, izy, I forgot about that. I think
you're right. I mean, I'm confirmed. I should probably know this.
Yeah, I just yeah, I just don't know how they're gonna get that.
I don't know. I wonder I feel like that's gonna be very mis
Marvel territory. I don't know how. I don't see the poll for that.
For people don't seem in up upcoming projects. I swear that was a
thing. Maybe I'm no, you're right now, I remember that was the
thing. So it's not as I am to be at real least. So
yeah, maybe he's technically not announced or something. Yeah, exactly one of
those rumored castings. So well, we'll be right back and we're gonna talk
about some trailers after this. And we're back, and I suppose you know
what. I agree, they don't watch but Simpsons. But I agree,
he says, I feel like Agatha as a show now it's like the Simpsons
shoke. That's way too late. And I think so, I think like
Wantavision was what two thousand and twenty or twenty one. Nothing came on in
twenty twenty, right, Yeah, you're right, So it's twenty one,
so it's yeah, three years later, and okay, it's almost four years
later because Wantavision came out January, so that was the first one to break
down the doors. Yeah, hopefully the show's good, but I just don't.
I don't know. Like I said, it's one of those shows that
were green lighted in that era. So but we'll see. Yeah, what
are we gonna be seeing here? Trailers? Do prophecy rings of Parer season
two, Dylan, you want a four megalalapulss trailer, We got it.
Never let go Long Legs, and then I can speak on House of Dragon.
But what did you think about these trailers or any ones that you wanted
to speak on? Yeah, Megalopolis someday I'll nail that. I Wow,
what a what a trailer for that one, right? I I the CGI
would like, you know, I love seeing like a lady Liberty or whatever
her name is, like just lean on a building like that's fun. But
the CGI and Night was giving me major Night of the Museum vibes, and
I don't know if that's what they want. Maybe it isn't. I don't
think so. But the guy's paying for it with his own money, right,
so that's where Yeah, you get what you get. That's a crazy
thought. I just him watching this trailer back and be like, man,
that's every one of these shots is my hard earned money going into this.
So I was a lot more intrigued by this one because I actually kind of
well, I don't know what's going In fact, I'm probably more confused than
I was before, but this movie just seems like it's going for It seems
like it's going to create a lot of weird, crazy ideas. I think
the idea of this heightened reality that he's like the architect of, I don't
know, it seems really interesting, so I in the theory yet, I
don't know. I got to think about it. But I'm really intrigued by
this because I just like how weird and different it seems to be. So
I think this was a successful trailer for me in that way. Well,
it doesn't even a yet, so you might not even be able to see
in theater. Might just be like a streaming thing one day and not even
like no one's picked up yet, So we'll see. Because it's well,
I will watch it on streaming. Then yes, that's I'll give you that
guarantee. Premiere to Kansas Week got reactions. Some people say it's one of
the worst movies ever seen. Some people say it's one of the best movies
I've ever seen, everything in between. So it's a thing on Rondo males.
It's rocking like a nice fifty five percent, which is higher than I
thought. But it's a it's a very mixed movie right now as far as
reception. So where's your excitement after the actual trailer. It's the intrigue level
is there. I don't know if it's gonna be like a a good movie,
but I don't even know if that's what it's aiming to be. The
theater for it based off this depends when nothing else is coming out, like
if I so, yeah, go into my head like nothing else life plan
wise, Yes, I would go see it in the theaters just out of
curiosity. But this is a movie that he even said that he's like,
you would like to maybe do December because I think he thinks like an Oscar
potential and stuff like that. Actually don't think it's gonna happen. Like again,
this man is one multi oscar, so I could se made him having
that for front and the actors to accomplish that and there, Yeah I'm driver
and yeah, it's it's tough because I don't like uh, like I hate
the Shia's in here. And that's a big thing nowadays of like people,
they only takes a couple of years. You just got you know him,
Kem's facey Luisa k all these people that were gone. Just takes a couple
of years and everyone just kind of comes back and like, oh yeah,
you know, it's just such thing which I was gonna say to break the
fourth wall because you already voted. You didn't, uh you didn't put that?
Did you put that Chia song on them? I did not, But
yeah, that's a song I have not thought about in a while. The
raw panter shy it's just called Shila buff right, Yeah, okay, good.
I hit that with a big negative fifteen. So I was looking at
the voting and I saw it down vote massively after you. I was like,
it was, which is not shocking. Yeah, so but and then
that does like that doesn't matter. Of course things matter. But there's many
people involved with productions where it's a little you gotta art an artist. So
the film it looks interesting it I believe what all those reactions and I see
the Caesar, I believe that I feel like you're gonna feel like strongly about
it one way or the other, and I don't know which rod I'm gonna
go. I feel like lots of times I end up in the middle of
those situations. Last of Us too, bvs. Last Jed. I'm always
the person of like, oh, there's things I like and there are things
I don't like. I'm always stuck in the middle of like oh I hate
it or love it, Like last yed I didn't ruined Star Wars for me,
but also like a bunch of problems. So I I don't know about
what this one, but it is very I'm very curious to see what is.
At least it looks unique. I'll give it that. Yeah, So
you know it's gonna be one of those movies that has a very unclear ending
that all the audience members are debating about for years and years to come,
like Inception or something. You know, it's gonna be one of those.
It just has that smell to it, auby awesome in this. You shut
her out in uh Agatha, and she's here playing a character called Platinum Wow.
I love that name. That's that's a superhero name right there. I
want her to play Platinum Wow next to Blonde Phantom in the I guess there
was a few times she showed up to set in her Angatha costume like she
was going from one set to another, and she used to bother at him
driver apparently, So there you go. After all that went wrong with I
thinks is read. You know, Bastard's long legs trailer. It's another good
one. I don't think it really changed my perception much from the first one.
It's a lot of the same energy where there's like, I don't know,
two reality is going on too characters and having the minds of these different
characters. I think it looks great though, and I'm excited for that one.
Yeah m hm, the next weeks back to back that in Maxine,
which I think Maxine I might be away for. But yeah, that's gonna
be a two good weeks of horror I've not seen because the trailer came up
from Maxine, right, Yeah, it's really I haven't seen it yet,
but that's intriguing. Uh never, I go. I hadn't heard about this
one until today. But I love the concept. I think it looks like
a lot of fun. I like the kind of character dynamic, the family
dynamic seems interesting. I love a good movie at like a creepy cabin in
a in a forest, like it just looks great. The look of the
creatures in here look really really good and creepy, and yeah, just the
general concept. It's it's got one of those like good horror concepts like don't
Breathe or something like it just has or like it follows. It feels like
it kind of feels like it's in that ball camp, ball camp, ball
game camp. That's what I was going for there. So that's that's intriguing
to me. That one looks really fun. I think I haven't seen halle
Berry act and anything in a while either, so I think that will be
interesting. I don't think i've heard her do this kind of accent before as
well, so uh'll be interesting. Now. I'm sure it's happened at some
point, but probably probably Yeah. And then yeah, so host Dragon's not
my not my bag there. Uh, I'm really curious, what do you
think of it? I'm gonna jump over here, but Doom Prophecy because I
I don't care, I think, and I hate to say that, but
I just it just as much as I love those two movies, and I'm
interested in getting the lower and I bought the book recently, which is sitting
on my bookshelf here, and I tend to read it. I don't.
I don't think I care all about this. For some reason. I'm torn
because I feel like we always talk about our favorite thing of Doom is this
is the best Jedary, right, right, but like I feel like the
mystery to it and the unknown is what's so compelling, and I feel like
to maybe have a show that seems to be all about that and explain it
is like taking away some little luster. Perhaps, I don't know. I
don't know if that's a stupid thought to have, but it just yeah,
I don't know. I don't know if it's like I like it as like
this side storyline or like this overarching thing, but maybe not the main plot.
So I don't know. I don't I feel bad that I feel this
way, but that's what my just natural reaction off the trailer. Yeah,
the trailer didn't get me excited. I don't look bad. I think at
times the effects look good and then other times they This doesn't sound really bad,
but like remind me of like the Sci Fi Network back in the day
shows where there's like some big space shoe on and this is much better.
But this, I think, this show to me really comes down to pilot,
Like that's what it's gonna tell me of how good the quality of the
show is gonna be. I like Mark Strong, so he's in there and
that's always good to see him. But yeah, I don't know, because
I like that group that will get me in the door. But it's one
of those things too. Reviews come out like a few weeks before and they're
not good. That's gonna sway, swear I am. And I have talked
to Kirklan tear two and see like if that's something we're reviewing even it's just
like episode one and then we talk about them every once in a while and
Key first, but she's like, because yeah, I got I got the
same vibe. Just and Deni is a part of this. He's he's a
producer on there, and so it's not like, oh, he just didn't
know about it, like he hit some hand in some things. And his
HBO and usually they provide quality, like even some of their lower stuff,
is you like HBO is not known for making bad stuff, you know Warner
Brothers movies. That's different HBO. Usually they have high quality there. So
I'm just trying to tell myself that maybe this was not a well cut teaser
and the show has some that great tension and that space odyssey and magic and
intrigue, like maybe it's there, And I agree with you. We were
even the first lines like well twenty thousand years before Paul Treys like it's literally
calling out, like how we're gonna get there? But it's always what we
complain about Star Wars right where at least they are doing well. It is
a long time away from that, so there is lots of room for surprise,
and so I'm not writing off yet, but it didn't have that oof
I was really hoping for. Yeah, I'm really I'm curious where Yeah,
as you said, Travis, and it's not Travis. Taylor and Kirkland are
at this one, especially Kirkland because I feel like he's been more like deeper
on the lower head side of like the doing stuff, So I'm curious where
he'll be on this one. But yeah, I don't know. I guess
something like I love Aracus as a place, and I'm sure it'll be involved
here to some extent. But yeah, it feels like something so different because
of just the different setting up, Like seeing Snow is like what was going
on here? I'm like useless, I get you know, in the first
duo, we don't start on a rack as we go there, but still
and then Rings of Power. I was actually just hanging out with a friend
last week and we were talking about just Lower of the Rings in general,
because he hadn't heard about the gall and things. So we were talking about
that for a while and we were both like, man, we got to
rewatch season one, Like, I don't my memory on a lot of the
things that happened. I feel like it's getting pretty fuzzy, and yeah,
i'd see I want to see them. Like my thoughts of all when I
see that show again, knowing a lot of things that are going to happen.
I think it was a decent trailer. I'm I'm excited for the show.
I'm not on the edge of my seat excited, but I'll definitely be
there to watch it because I just love the Lord of the Rings stuff.
But I don't know if there's much in here particularly that was calling to me
like, oh, I can't wait to see this or this sequence of this
character, other than like glad you'al with fire Ros, I'm like, hell,
yeah, I can't wait to see that scene. But otherwise, I
don't know if there was one thing that I was grabbing onto because I was
I iffy on a certain character and ending in that first season, and it
seems like that's obviously a big focus and element of this trailer. So I'm
on the fence, but I'm still gonna be their day one for this.
That's that one's on a different tier than Doing for me obviously, Yeah,
super mix as I forget what the idol I did not forget. I know
I watched the full thing, but I try to forget. That was something
that was bad and the HBO did put it out, so they're not perfect.
I imagine hopefully Doing Proply is not the idol. I'm gonna assume it's
not as bad as that, but yeah, you never know. So yeah,
Rings the Power. I'm excited. I loved the first season for the
most part. I think it's like a nine out of ten or seven.
But yeah, I'm gonna be rewatching that soon. I think I'm gonna try
to watch with the girls. We'll seek it's a bit more talkie. I
don't know if they're going to enjoy as much as Lord of the Rings and
Hobbit, so we'll see on that one. But they've been asking about it
because they've they're full in the Thick of One and more Lord of the Ring
stuff, So I actually told them there's a gold movie. I gotta still
tell them that news, but I don't know if they I think they will
be excited because yeah, and plus maybe I should. I'll probably wait and
see till it's actually happening because it's still two years away, so I won't
get them too excited. But uh, yeah, I think they're smart in
it's tough because we know the way the story goes. But at the same
time, I guess they're smart of their Sorrowns on forefront, right, I
feel like the previous are the first one we're very hinted around, like is
that a wizard we know? Is that the sorrow we know? And now
to me, it's very much like this is gonna be the wizard you know,
and it's gonna be the bad guy, you know. And there's all
the iconography of different things, right, Like even Sorrown is looking like his
book sell where he's like the gorgeous, beautiful elf that's up to no good,
right, So it's just like so yes, exactly yeah, because and
I'm I'm curiously where this is gonna go because I feel like rings Power has
that narrative where I don't think many people think it's bad. I think there's
just lots of people that were disappointed, and there's lots of people like Tamy
myself that just really enjoyed. I find out a lot when that teaser came
out. So I think season two is really gonna be the fork in the
road for some people that they might always watch it, but as far as
where their excitement level goes, Like and just because I think season one maybe
had some missteps, I don't think it's there. I don't think it's doom
and gloom. I enjoyed it, So I think that I think this trailer
did what it need to do. It didn't ramp in my excitement up anymore,
but I think it got me ready for Okay, I'm ready to get
back in this world to see where these characters are. And I did like
the sorrow On and pending doom stuff. I think that was good. There's
one where all the characters are surrounded by there's like darkness and evil twigs coming
up. I'm like, okay, I'm ready for some of that like evil
imagery because first twigs. Yeah, because first season was a lot of hinting
and it was just like yes, like foreshatting of sorrow On right where this
is like Okay, it looks like he's gonna be able to pop off and
do some dark magic stuff, which I think that's good because we've never seen
that in the movies and even books they talk about. But this is an
opportunity of like, hey, you got sar On, you can use them.
Now use them, make them a very powerful evil threat that does things.
You know. That's end of August, right for that one, end
of all, Yeah, August twenty ninth. That goes into that and then
into the uh obviously the falls and I think it's I can't remember, right,
was an eight episode? Yeah, I think this is the episodes two,
so you got that going on. It was the was a two episode
drop of it was yeah, because yeah, in the theater. But I
don't know if they're Yeah, Amazon's all over the place. Sometimes they do
binge The Boys. Ever do the the Boys? Every year they do the
three episode drops. I don't know what they're doing here, if they're gonna
do one or two or three whatever it may be. But we'll be there
for those. So check out that. And then yeah, long Legs.
I'm just getting more and more excited. Just another good trailer. I think
the only thing this one did was, which I think is smart. As
we're getting closer, I think it emphasized Cage a little more like you just
heard them more and saw flashes. I think that's smart for any general audience
man, like, what the hell is this movie? Like, well,
Nicholas Cage, And I guess I'm just getting really exciting. It's excited to
see him like a creep and I would assume the antagonist of the movie right,
like just to know like he's playing a Hannibal Lecter dexterville in type of
character. I'm like, oh that. I think that's just exciting. And
he's playing it straight too. It's not like looking like rambunctious, funny Cage
where it's like, Okay, we're gonna have a good time. This looks
like he's gonna be when he wants to be an actor. Cage like a
kind of like dream scenario. Even some stuff of Massive Talent had like a
little bit of that there. So I'm excited to see that. And uh
yeah, I just it is a movie that I hope doesn't disappoint me because
it's one of those it feels a lot like don't Worry Darling, where I
saw one trailer and that hype got me and I feel like, yeah,
that's been long legs for me. Is the closer we get, the more
I seem like all this could be a like I'm very much hoping this could
be like a dark Horse when we talk about Golden Geeks and stuff, but
sometimes great marketing and do that. But I think they're doing really good job
marketing where they're showed a bit of the story that it's seemingly she's a new
detective and there's just these she'll get a GNU him for sure or yeah,
probably be in the top five. That would be my yeah prediction for Golden
Geeks. And I hope Cahen sneak into the films as well too. That'd
be great too, because that would be yeah has. I'm trying to think
what his legacy is in the Golden Geeks history. I think we gave him
one for Massive Town. I think we did for him in Page I think
we both they both got that. Maybe you shout him out for Spider Man
No War, but like I don't, he probably wouldn't have. Oh No,
I think he got up supporting actor No m in that. I think
I think he might have because he won though no he didn't win. No,
No, he didn't win. Hempsworth won that year that I remember for
that was in Findye war thor so that's I know, Yeah, what are
you gonna do against that? Yeah, that was a big year because I
think we had Shamik Moore as actor in there. We had him in supporting.
I think there was another Spider Man Spider B Parker two or something.
Yeah, I think we did. We might had Steinfeld like and I remember
that's the year that Across is it Across? Yeah? That won Golden Geek
Best Pictures, So we were pretty we were pretty high in that. That
was Briggs his favorit movie that year. That was Kirkland's fairite movie that year.
So that had a lot of a lot of a lot of GV buzz.
Yeah, what else House a Dragon? I'll just speak out. I'm
I actually last time said I can't get more excited. I did get more
excited this trailer because to set the stage for your Dylan last year, they
set the where who the people are on both sides of the war and this
was gonna be the war. This trailer was showing now both sides of the
war in fighting, starting to starting happening with that, So that was very
exciting. I was not expecting that. They They gave like a little teas
last season of one dating relationship that looked like it was gonna turn bad.
But now it looks like there's one character this trailer questioning if his mother should
even be in charge. You're like, man, that's not good, like
your your own son's being like, I think we might have to kill her.
You're like, geez, louiz. So yeah, it's somehow gote me
because I that happens a Game of Thrones, but I thought that might be
later on the fact we're already getting into the all these famis turning on each
other. That's the drama. So that's good stuff. And that's what I
hope Doom props you can get to that type of game of throwne stuff where
there's a lot of layered care. So what else was there? Never let
go? Oh yeah, I saw that at it played for stranger things and
no, no, not sure, just the strange, just the strangers just
years ago. Yeah, I like that, And like you said, gave
a quiet place vibe. Also gave me a signs vibe and might tumble not
signs Uh, the village. Remember did you see that back in the day.
I've not seen the village so that was a movie signs though. Yeah,
it's walking Phoenix and maybe it's Bryce Styles Howard. Uh. They're in
a village and it's like you can't go out because there might be monsters out
there and there's a whole thing there even here, they're they're they're like,
these boys are talking about like the world out there and you see a road
like That's what I'm curious too, if not only the setup of the plot
is also what is like, are are we gonna find out what's out there?
I don't need like an X, Y and Z of everything like quiet
place. We didn't get there, right, we didn't get well on this
day and all winto crap. But no, just like what is the state
of the world? She says, we're the only people out there? Is
that true? Are we gonna bump into another character throughout the movie? And
yeah? Just some good imagery like that last I think I don't know if
the movie's gonna be great. Like with Long Legs, I look at they
go, oh, I think this could be a top tier one. This
movie could easily be a straight to Netflix B horror movie. But I think
they cut a really good trailer and that ending when the two ants come out,
but it's another set of hands and then they start to climb that that
was great. Yeah, so that's where I think it has potential to be
fun. And halle Berry can go and she wants some of those kid actors
look like they're entertaining, So I same thing. I hope that's like a
sleeper one, but that one is I could easily see week of twenty percent
of Ron Tomatoes, Clay with a one star review, April with like a
three and a half, and you know, if April's going to three and
a half're like, oh no, that's that's not good. Yeah, because
she still seems like an April five star to me. But then yeah,
she didn't like Taro, and I thought that was like great up her yea,
And she says self of Midaly, she says, hey, I always
skew a lot higher. So when I see something that's like below four,
I'm like, oh, I don't know if I'm gonna like this, because
especially when it's the horror stuff. Though sometimes we are different legs. But
yeah, I can't remember when that was coming out, though I feel like
that's gonna be one. They don't have a super long marketing tale on it's
probably coming. I just feel like, oh, September, okay do we
We don't know where it's going yet, theaters or streaming or anything. I
think this is the Yeah, this is theater is lions Gate, So that
one's theater and it's September. And actually think, even though it's not Halloween,
I mean that's better than the summer season because same thing as like I
love Max or I love that trilogy or hopefully love the trilogy, and I
hopefully will love Long Legs. But those coming out in July could also be
tough for those because there's a lot of big movies out right now. So
I don't know if people like do people go out to see Long Legs?
I don't know, but I don't think so hopefully hopefully it has Long Legs
at the theater. Maddie is usual asked to rank these tracks. Do you
say, by the call of your excitement? What did he say here?
How would you rank the chairs in terms of most anticipated project? Okay,
there you go, so don't let you have the floor. I think i'd
go long Legs number one, never let go, number two, Rings a
Power through then make okay, then dooing Prophecy. So unfortunately, doom Prophecy
is my bottom tier pick here and haven't I'm not the not the House the
Dragons guy, so that'll be my You could say that's below dune if you
yeah, of course, ye n there, I'll go House Okay. I
guess this is just anticipation overall. It's tough because I know how the Dragon's
gonna have the quality, but there's a surprise factor of long legs. So
I'm gonna give it long Legs the number one slot just because of that that
X factor that now a couple months from now, I could sound dumb because
you can look at long legs and if it's just like a big face plant,
you go, man, why not even put that over House a Dragon?
But I'll go legs, House a Dragon, Rings the Power Megalopolis,
never let go, and then uh well yeah, because it just that didn't
float my boat. And it's it's not like Rings of Power or that first
teaser House Dragons where it's like, oh, I'm all excited, this showed
me some stuff. I'm still excited. I was waiting to get more excited
for this and this just left me. It's like, Okay, I'm still
and maybe that will be a second trailer, because this was just a minute
half teaser trail, right, so maybe there'll be another trailer come out and
go, oh, show us some really good hooks, like oh, I
really want to see what's going to happen. But because this trailer was just
I think to get it out there for people it's coming out this year,
them literally dropping Paul Trady's name. I think it is just to let people
know, hey, this is a Dune show, but it's not required viewing.
It's just if you really like dude, you know question for you on
Dune what is this based on? Like is this based on one of the
books? Or is this like them taking creative liberty or is it one of
the things where like the Sun wrote this book or something? Do you know
that. I think it's a bit of both where I think they're and because
I'm not a Dune book guy, so don't no one come after me in
the comments of the reviews. But I think they are taking lower aspects but
then spitting their own show. Like I don't think there is just a show
about the Ben Jeserie. But I think there's four stuff that's almost like Rings
of Power to some extent, to an extent, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
okay, okay, interesting. Yeah. So we'll take our final break
here and then we're just gonna talk about some movies quickly, so we'll be
right back and we're back. So I'm gonna hit you with a slew of
movies here, of projects that are rumored in development, and you let me
know. So right now, there's rumored to be two parts of Caribbean Movies.
There's a reboot and there is the one that Margaret Robbie is working on,
and uh previously had talked about It's weird because that rumor kind of went
away. But I think the only reason this is happening because Barbie was a
big hit, and I think Disney now is like, hey, remember when
you want to make that Pirates movie, we would still love to do that
with you. But for the reboot. The reason this is a big deal
is the rumored star attached right now as Austin Butler. Uh. The other
is Margot Robbie not part of it anymore though. No, So the trajectory
was they announced this movie was in development, and then she was working on
it, and then she'd give some interviews about that kind of like just sound
like it kind of died out, like they couldn't get on the same map.
But then the producer, Jerry Bruckheimer said this week that he thinks Disney
really wants to make it. So I think what happens after Barbie Disney maybe
came back around to her and said like, hey, would you still maybe
like to do that Pirates thing? I don't think it's gonna happen. But
that's literally the producer of the franchise said, though, like there's two movies
in the work. He also said he'd loved work Giant Debt, but the
rumored star for the reboot is awesome. Butler, this is like an official
one. These two are official John Wick Caine spinoff. So obviously Kine from
John Wick four, you know The Blind Assassin, that's a movie that's being
made. Happy Gilmour two is going to Netflix. That's movies that being made.
And then two rumored projects is Incredibles three and Finding Something three, so
Nemo Dory a third. I can't even think of an their character's name from
those movies. Marlin probably right there you go the dad at this time in
Dory and uh the sun turtles name like the stone Turtle. That's like,
yeah, dude, I don't know if you can make it about him,
but we'll find him. I remember, isn't his son like swashbucking so high
and he just went in the wrong Uh whatever they call those like tunnels?
What do they call like the I can't remember the name, like the water
Yeah, the water tunnel things like that. Yeah, I know it's like
a sea pocket, but it's not. It's something like if we hit it
in real life, it's dangerous, right, like yeah, current, that's
the word I was looking for. Yeah, yeah, yeah, current.
Yeah, drag you under? Yeah, okay, all the There's a lot
going on here. Pirates. I'm excited for that because I want to do
that retrospective. I want to go back to those movies because uh I yeah,
like I've not watched those in a very long time. I don't even
think I watched really any of them in preparation for the newest movie they came
on in like what was it, twenty seventeen eighteen when that one came out
for Pirates, Yeah, twenty seven. He said, twenty twenty seven.
I'm like, no, no, that's not kind of stephanely not crreck.
I think twenty seventeen sounds right. That sounds right. So yeah, those
are very much ones that remain, Like I watched them a lot as a
kid, maybe like the first like two or three of them or I don't
even know how many there are these days. I don't think i've ever there's
there's five because that the newest one that came up that in twenty seventeen.
That was the fifth one, right, yes, my correct, I don't
think I've ever seen the fourth one. So I have a spotty history with
these. So I want to go through there and I will to watch them
again, but I don't think i'll do it on my own. I think
I needed retro to push me to do that. So cool, I'm down
for that. It was weird that there's two, like maybe you should just
do one at a time, but you know, who am I to judge?
They can do whatever they want. John Wick Caine's he's a great character.
This isn't very exciting for me, Like I'm excited for Ballerina because I
had Armus. Of course, but I feel with John Wick like it took
a while. Finally they nailed it with Chapter four, Like that was a
movie for me. I loved it, like I don't want too much of
a good thing, you know, So I don't know if I'm terribly excited
for it, especially after just like Continental like did nothing like I didn't watch
it, but I just mean that in terms of the actual intrigue of it
was like not there for me, and I like, I'm more interested in
than Kan for Kin than I am Continental, I think, but like only
a very small amount, so not too intrigued by that one Happy couldn't pitch
you on that to say, like a way to make it. I feel
like I'm trying to look up the character's name right now, but I feel
like in that review where is it, it was the daughter of Gosh.
I can't find her, but remember the guy that had the hotel, Yes
in Japan, he gets kill money as a daughter. I feel like after
review we were all like, oh, we like a movie of her.
What if that's like a back door like because I feel like if you're selling
the movie and you say, hey, we're making a spin off of her,
I don't know if the producers stuff might look at that as a big
hit. But if it's a movie that Okay, it's Kane, but the
end credit that movie was her trying to kill him, right. I wonder
if it's like really a movie about her, but they're using him to sell
because a lot of people liked like the blind Assass Would that get you any
more excited bringing that character back, that daughter, because we were all big
fans of her on the review and we I think wed her for Golden Geeks.
I think we. I mean, I think we like that nomination too.
He did for Best Something. Yeah, so I still feel all those
positive thoughts, but I think for me, it's like, you know,
they nailed it one of the four movies, and I feel like it was
mostly the same team making all of them. So I was just feeling some
say he was like random chance that one of them. I really love.
The other ones I just don't really care about. And I guess the more
I get away from it, like I don't, I'm losing steam a little
bit. So I don't know. A trailer for sure could sway me.
Yeah, I'd be curious to see who the like if that that what's his
name chat Chat Sahelski right, like, if he's involved in a big way
directing again and stuff, you know, I'll probably be there more than Like
Continental was a harder pill to swallow with the however long it was, and
they didn't actually have much to do with that as well. It came out
later on. Yeah, a lot of that. Yeah, they didn't have
they it was wrong. I'll probably see this movie, but if it came
out the same day as Incredibles three, for example, I would go see
Incredibles three instead, for example. And then let's see Happy Gilmour too.
It's funny that that's happening. That's That's one of those classics for me.
You know, I love that movie. Have I watched it in the last
decade. No, But it's one of those ones like Anchorment to Zoolander too.
It's just like, yeah, of course they're making a sequel this all
these years later, with with Netflix and and Adam Sandler having that connect there,
it makes sense. It's probably not gonna be very good, but I
will definitely watch it nonetheless. And then yeah, so I wanted to ask
you about this with Incredibles and finding Nemo, uh, because I distinctly.
Remember like a couple of years ago, Disney had like this new standpoint,
like they weren't doing any more sequels, like only new ip for like the
Pixar stuff. Has that just gone out the window? Like has the CEO
shifted? Who like wanted to do that? And now they're just like trying
to go for like cashing in on Inside Out too, and these sequels here
and probably another're frozen and and whatnot? Or what did I miss part of
the memo here? Uh? I think with the box office trailing, they've
decided that Iagres said this year that they're gonna be doing a mix of originals
and sequels and stuff. Just the right answer, right, you gotta,
you gotta, you gotta do a mix at the end of the day.
Yeah, But I think with a lot of these movies, the original ones
not doing too well, and Inside Out tracking to have right now a bigger
opening than Dune being the biggest opening of the year, I think that Yeah.
I think they are probably looking at more sequels now to whether they need
them or not. Like a toy story, I think they just go,
oh, well, it's probably guaranteed money, so let's do that. Inside
Out and Deadpool. That could be a big summer for Disney. It really
could be. Yeah, and that character's name was uh Akura, I think
for John Wick. I was trying to look up this Cira Akira, Akira
it's a k I R A because I don't think that is that how they
spelled Kira though, because I don't think it is, but I could be
wrong. Yeah, I have to see it spelled out. It doesn't sound
familiar. For some reason, I feel like she had a code name or
something that I can't remember. Yes, I don't know. And yeah,
so Finding like I don't. I don't think I've ever seen Finding Dori,
to be honest, Like maybe I put it on at some point then dipped.
So I don't really care about that particularly. I loved that first one
back in the day when I was a wee lad. But more than that,
I loved Incredibles. That was one of my favorite movies as a kid,
and you can go back it's in geek first history. How heartbreaking the
sequel was for me, and I just just did not do it. Now.
I've never watched it, and I should do that at some point.
I definitely would before this third one here, but that's still like a Day
one. I would go see that third one because I just love that first
one so much. It's so important to me, and I watched it recently
and I still love it, so I yeah, I catch me the theater
for that, and hopefully I can be more positive this time around then with
a sequel that just broke my heart. Yeah yeah, so I think Ad'm
the John Wick thing for me. I like Kane, but if it's not
tied to that character, the daughter a Kia will go with us right now
because that's who I wanted to spin off of. I love that character.
If it's not tie that and it's just like a prequel of Kane, like
when he was on a mission. I don't really need it, but I
get why people would because they really liked him. So that's like a TVD
for me. Uh, The Incredibles and Dory Dory is not needed. But
the last we made up billion dollars, so I get why they do it.
It was a billion dollar. Hey, that's insane, little billion dollars.
Yeah, so I get it. Yeah, they'll probably do fine with
that. Twenty eighteen for that one, twenty just looked pre COVID obviously,
yeah, it's uh, give me a year, right, twenty sixteen,
so early into the podcast, Yeah, okay, crazy, Yeah, they
kept try and pump it out for Yeah, exactly right, they can try
to pump that out. So, uh, you got that Happy Gilmour two.
I'm kind of all for because I think even if it's now granted,
we've been here before, right Zoolander, Anchorman, like, there's a couple
others in there, like we've been there before. I don't know why,
like famous last words, Like I feel like I don't know if they can
do anything with Happy Gilma. It's gonna make me like the first one,
and I think that one has more room because sometimes you just go, like
Anchorman two, it's kind of like, Okay, what's the story here?
And there wasn't much of a story zoo Landed. I thought there was a
story and they just kind of botch it. But lots of times like kay,
what can we do here? I think with an age he happy Gilmore,
there's something to do. I think you've got to have shoot Hi McGavin.
He has to come back, and I think it's yeah, I think
he said he's seen the script, so like that asst I like you say
it that way instead of like he liked the script, he's seen it.
Well, he's running. I love christ McDonald. You know, I just
watched him tonight in Flubber, But like, what else has he been up
to recently? You know he was, Oh, he was in something recently.
Remember he popped up in some readise I remember what he was? No,
you want to look up or do you want to know? Do you
know what it was? He was in Secret Invasion And we were like,
oh, because we're like I watched it last year and can't remember what it
was because we were all like, oh, he's probably somebody important because he's
like a bigger actor than some of these people. Know. It wasn't so
I think there was fun stuff of him training a rookie, like whatever it
could be. I think there's especially in like the age of social media,
there gonna be a whole storyline about people trying to cancel happy or like he's
not PG enough, like oh, I think I don't want that movie.
There could be like he could do something in today's at day and age that's
not proper Andy, We're happy, Like I don't know, Like there's things
you could do. We'll see, but I just kind of trust them,
uh, And Adam said, I'm kind of fine. It seems like he
does like one for you, one for me for every Uncut Gems and Spaceman,
he'll do a murder mystery or grown up six like whatever, and that's
fine. Like, as long as he's doing uncut Gems type of movies,
that's great. Pirates, I do want one to come out because I want
that question as much as Yeah, I think giohint depp come back is a
big wild card, lots of baggage there. I truthfully can't tell you what
that franchise's health is without Jack Sparrow. I don't know if that can survive
with or without them. That's legitimately one where I'm a fifty to fifty I
see pros and cons. I think even a youngster like awesome Butler like,
I don't think that like is an automatic win where be like, oh,
awesome Butler, like, I don't think it's Butler the same levels joining Depp,
even though after Dune, I'm even become a bigger fan of Butler.
I loved in that movie. But uh, I don't even know if one
hundred million was the box office of five. Oh, that's pretty good.
Yeah, but again Jack Sparrow, right, So that's where it's just like
without Jack, I don't know. We'll have to see And that's why I'm
curious to see one. I don't think the Robbie one ever happens. I
think they're just trying to sweet talker and coming back and maybe picking up that
project. And well, honestly, if I was Butler, I if I
was Asian, I would say pass on this one because I think I think
that's probably wise. I think before Dune maybe not, but after Dune and
he's got the Bike Riders movie coming out, I think he's gonna be jactually
looks good. I was surprised. I feel like that's not my cup of
tea. But the trailer played before a probably fall Guy that I saw recently,
Yeah, and uh, I thought it looked really good and like Tom
Hardy in a voice he's doing in there, like I want to see this
movie all always with the voice, always with the eyes. You know,
he's making some choice. But I just feel like, because there's some upswing
potential there, I'll see a big paycheck whatever. I get that right,
if it's for money higher and he wants to do that. That makes sense.
If it's just, hey, I want to star in Pirates, I
can go start in five, then go do you? But I think there's
a chance, like you don't want to be the guy that is a part
of the Pirates of Bombs after Johnny, you know, Like I just feel
like that gives you a bad narrative. And I think he could do it.
I think he has similar things that joined Ut where he's charismatic. He
can be a ladies guy, get it, but he can be a little
tough like I think Butler. There's nothing wrong acting wise. I just I
think it's risky. I don't know. I don't know if I would do
that and then Incredibles, I'm all for it, as long as they age
him up. If it's another movie of them at the exact same age that
was already my problem would too. If they do this again where baby Jack
Jack still baby Jack Jack, and Violet still a teenage girl and Dash is
still in elementary school, no thanks, I don't need any of that.
I think that was a mistake of the last one, among other things.
I think that was a big mistake. But I think that they would be
smart enough this go around to age them up a little, you know,
like that was one of the best things about the Toy Story franchise was and
he was getting older, and I know it was different because it was toys,
but you saw some progression there, right like that with Incredibles to see,
Okay, let's see mister Incredible and miss Elastic like or Elastic Girl.
Sit back, and now their kids have grown up in there like the Superheroes,
especially with how long those took, Like Toy Story, that was like,
there's not even let me use between those a half a decade or some
incredible, credible long time less sense than ever. Yeah, So that's where
I am. And as far as same thing, Maddy asked, what is
the anticipation for these ones? I don't know what I'd put it. First.
I guess i'd put like I'll put john Wick Kine just hoping that Akira
is in there at number one. If she wasn't, it'd be like in
the middling, So I would say John Wick, I'd somehow say Happy Gilmore,
and then I'd say whatever. The combination of pirates is Incredibles three and
finding Nemo, and again, if I knew that Incredibles was the kids aged
up. That's probably two or one because I think there's some potential there.
But hey, i'll go Incredibles number one, Pirates two, Sean Wick three,
Gilmore for Nemo, bottom of the list. Get more that low.
Hey, I thought'd be a bit harder for you. I mean, it's
probably not gonna be good. That's where I'm at with that these other ones.
Pirates has potential and Credibles has potential even if the last ones weren't great.
John Wick, like, you know, if it's the same team characters,
is probably gonna be good. Nimoy who cares? And then Gilmore like
that's not gonna be how can but how can it's a simple golf? How
can you screw up? Kapi? Gilmore? You know, like so many
of these Adams on their Netflix movies suck traffits. They're not funny, they're
so like out of time, they're just like they just phone it in.
So that for those reasons, which I feel like are pretty valid reasons.
Yeah, there's Netflix. Come on, there's more chance that this movie is
bad than it is good, right, I think so Sandy Wexer was fine,
and Hub Halloween was alright, but maybe they had saft a couple over
you. This is Vision's history. Those movies are worse than you're giving.
Fine Sandy, Okay, Wexler, I am giving a revisionous history. Hugh
be Halloween. I genuinely generally like, but uh, you think that one
of the saff needs to come over and help him out? That would be
great. I would love to see existential dread Gilmore after all these years,
he's washed up. His hockey stick is banned officially, so you can't use
that anymore. Says he's a lacrosse stick now or something? Or is that
it? Is it this time he goes back to hockey? Is that the
movie? Oh? I don't know. Is that any better? No,
it's not. That was my one pitch for Happy Gilmore, and that that's
all I got. But uh, yeah, we'll see. I know if
Taylor's here, Happy Gilmore probably be like Strong Number one, because that man
was watching it target at any chance he got her number. It was always
playing the room, and I feel like he was laughing all the time.
That was iconic. I feel like, I mean, I imagine that the
actor that plays the grandma. I don't know if she's around anymore. Chubbs
dies in that movie. Spoiler for an old movie. Well, Chubbs is
dead in real life. Now, remember he passed away this year. I
forgot about that too. Well, I'm not like, do you bring he
was the character died in movies, So I don't think that's one that they
would bring a force ghost back for anyway. But he did, But he
did. He looked when he looked at heaven, you saw him totally did,
right, there's stream of sequences. Yeah, I don't know if they
would have done that either way, but yeah, I guess they're gonna have
to get some a new crop of characters in there. I hope it's not
just like Adam Sandler's random good friends, because I feel like that movie didn't
actually have a lot of those people. I had a couple. Maybe I'm
misremembering. I know I had the weird guy who's always like, uh,
heckling him when he's about to shoot that guy. He's like one of the
Adams Sandler classic characters, right, But I feel like, for the most
part, I have like all those regular people that you expect. You know,
they have that one guy. Do you remember that he's in the like
I got stoned with Grandma or like getting high with Grandma. Ben Stiller's character
too, Oh, I forgot about him in there too. Ben Stiller's a
happy Gilmore, isn't he not? With the remember the Old Folks Home and
he's like the really abusive honestly about it. I'm close. I'm close with
you. That's a good thing though, because yeah, that's me and tears
my favorite character that like like like go to sleep or I'll put you to
sleep. He's like always. But the thing is, I forgot warm glass
of milk, warm glasses that I think we used that line a lot in
the beginning of Keeeker. So yeah, yeah, to shut the hell up
now that character. This is what you got me so excited. Hue Be
Halloween was on Netflix. They brought that character back and hull Be Halloween.
I remember that ben Stiller came back as that character, so I think we
are going to get him in the Old Folks Home and stuff, So that
would be I don't know who the old folk person is now. But and
then I'm looking at like the love interest character. I was just seen,
like what she's done? She was a qub Halloween too. Apparently is she
Okay? She plays a Karen named Violet Valentine. So and isn't she in
modern family? She's likely from her family or he is, Yeah, yeah,
okay. And then the guy who's old Grandma's boy, that's the movie
it is. He played his caddy in the movie. That's another Adam Sandler
guy. That guy's hilarious. He's like a Napoleon Dynamite type. But but
in uh in Habby Gilmour he had the long hair and a big beard,
so he didn't look like the same. But uh right, okay. And
then I get the aligaeir back, even though I hear he charges a lot
nowadays the alligator. So yeah, it's harder these days for uh animal actors,
right, Yeah, they just c GI them all these days, as
long as they get shoot her. And think is that guy he's a kid
at the time, he had like the perm but it was really bleached blonde.
You were talking about earlier. That's the caddy. No, no,
no, no, bad count. Now I know who you're talking about.
Yeah, yeah, that guy, he's an Adam Sandler. He's like the
homeless guy. And then he hires him as Yeah, he was the only
other Adam Sandler actors that was in that, but that's before he was even
bigger. But yeah, I don't even associate that guy as one of those.
Oh he was in a bunch of the early ones until he replaced them
with a Chris Rock. There's an era of Adam Sandler with a budget,
and then there's Adam Sandler without a budget. And without a budget is when
all his friends are always around, you know. Somehow Bushmi was in both
eras though, so well, he's the great Bushmi, he got it,
he is. I think there's no better way to end the cast than on
Steve Bushmi because he can't get much higher than that. So yeah, maybe
I could. I'd be fine. Shemi is like a rival golfer or something
like that too, you know I could, I could, I could suck
on that. So but shoot, mc gavin needs to he needs to be
there. You got to bring me back to remember the guy who like hits,
the really big scary guy who has like the nail in his head too.
I think he's passed away as well. Dan Man. Actually he was
like all these people that are part of this movie that I think unfortunately that
was tied to his uh, because he's like Andre, like people have giantism,
don't live long. I think, yeah, just things with their organs
and how they move it just can expend. What is it to expediate their
rate of life? But shout him a great little character piece in that whole
thing. And and you can't break that Parker, No, no, not
everybody. All these highlight characters just gone. That's how you need Shooter though,
she needs to be there. So yeah, I mean if you only
have him and the love interest character, like, yeah, you gotta gotta
bring them all back at that point eight pieces of ship like you for breakfast
pieces. I gotta put that movie on it. Yeah, it's been too
long. We watched it so much in the Target day is that I don't
think I've watched it since I've had to meet for the last decade. I
had too many because literally, people you started working together Target, it was
it was either Frozen or Happy Gilmore on the lunch that's only two movies.
And Happy Gilmore. I feel like what happens anytime Taylor gone there, he
would switch Away Gilmore and my shift was always the nighttime like after this,
like Happy Gilmore was just on R and that's not even a PC movie,
Like, how are they? It's kind of a weird isn't it. Yeah,
we'll have to ask him about that in the future when we will.
We got Revi happy. That was a peak Frozen arrow though, so that
one made sense. Yeah, Happy Gilmore. I don't know how he caught
that in there. So yeah, well the Showman, we have done it,
lots of big news cover. We didn't do newscast last week, so
I'm not sure if the one next week news is always touching God, We'll
see, but I promise you I'll not be boring.
