All right, we are back, mister anti idioty. There's a mouthful there.
I really really want Kitty Pride to be Tom Holmes Spy's new girl friend
the MCU. That'd be tons of fun. I would love it if they
were the same age. I think unfortunately we've talked about before. I think
he'll find his way back to MJ. But and I think I don't actually
know. I know in the comics at some point Kitty Pride and Star Lord
were married. But we've always said this that they don't do enough like when
we did comic Virgins and you have so much of the hero swapping and dating
other people. They do not do enough of that in the movies, especially
now they have TV shows that would have been the perfect time, like just
even stuff like Daredevil and Sheell cooking up like more stuff like that. So
I think that would be a very fun way to get Peter in with the
X Men of Katy Pride. Maybe starts as high school, she goes somewhere
else, but I don't think they would. But I'd be very much down
with Kitty Pride and Peter Parker being together for a little bit. You know,
I'm down. Yeah, I got some dc rumors and news here.
So Ben Barnes is this is Si to your stuff, rumored to be playing
the DCU Batman. You guys can look that up if you don't know who
he is, Alden ehren Reich as Hal Jordan for Green Lantern. Then we
got news that Penguin is gonna be coming out September, and then Creature Commandos
is coming out in uh December. And then it was a wild week of
different scoopers. One Scooper coming out saying, hey, you know what I've
heard, and they're all Sea tier Scoopers, but you know what I've heard,
and they've gone stuff right, but still, you know I've heard is
Batman shooting Part two and three back to back. And then James Gunn gets
on his you know as threads and says, let's talk about threads this week.
He gets on his threads and he's like, oh, you know,
uh, nope, that's not happening. Of course not. He said,
that's not the planet something like that. And then there was another rumor that
I was just getting canceled, It's gonna get delayed, just got canceled,
and then for that he said, of course not so a lot of scuttle
but the GV scuttle belt, but the status of it. And I want
to bring this up more because it is a sea tier people and it literally
literally could just be happening right like it could just be the Batman movie.
But Tama, to start. You can talk about that other DC news as
well, but to start the Batman. I want to get your percentage of
how confident or not confident are you that we will get the Batman Part two.
I'm confident that we're going to get it, but a part of me
really feels like James Gunn does not care about it. I don't think it's
his priority. I think he's just he he got put into this position now
and he wants to I doubt it's his priority. That's it's definitely not his
priority. He's hopefully directing. Superman's his priority because look at look at yeah,
well that's just it. Look at everything else that he's put up on
that that DZ slate, right, you have animated projects, you got Peacemaker,
you've got Superman, you got a whole bunch of different things that he's
focusing on. And that's that's him, that those projects are all under his
his his reign, his empire, or whatever you want to call it.
Those those are his, those are his focuses. Now when you look at
the things that were pre existing before he took over the reins here again,
you have Peacemaker, you have suicide squad. Well he's not I don't.
I don't think he's going into the suicide squad stuff anymore. But you have
peace there and he's keeping that up. Well, then there you go.
And where does the Batman fit into this? It really does. It's it's
going, it's slowly making its way. But I just think this is a
clear sign that he just it's not his creation. It's not something he was
looking into. Like, I don't know if I if I were to sit
down with him, or maybe if I just have to tweet him because apparently
tweets back to everything. No, I just have to ask threads, threads,
threads, threads. Yeah, so I just have to see, like
see how things progress. But I really do believe that he's just not prioritizing
it. You didn't give me a percentage, ah that it's releasing Yeah,
part two, Mike, even a big time percentage, one hundred percent,
he says Travis relax is happening. I ten actually under ten before ten percent,
as I think, Mike, you're right, as I've said before,
if I got a gun to my head, I think it will happen.
I think, I mean, I want to get Tato's percentage first, because
I actually don't. I'll dress. I don't want to doctor his percentage.
So what's your percentage on part two happening? That first one made like three
quarters of a billion, like almost like one hundred million. Yes, yeah,
three quarters of a billion. What a way to say it. But
you're you're not wrong. So I like it's gonna happen. I think whether
James Gunn likes it or not, he's got a bunch of suits in an
office, a bunch of investors looking at him and like tell him, like
man, this this needs to get done. And it was a hit he
hasn't had many of. Yeah, So I think that just like Joker too,
right, it's just another thing that's outside of his his reign here,
but that's coming out. And so I think you have those those investors that
are pushing him to that that edge or saying like yeah, these projects they
need to get done. Then you get made and He's like, Okay,
well you know what, Obviously Joker was much more of a box office hit,
so okay, we'll X. But I get that second one going,
and then you know, the Batman hit too, So I don't like,
I'm not gonna say another one. I don't think I don't go that far.
I still think there's like people said about two, I still think there's
always a chance. There's always chance. Maybe just got a Harley Quinn movie
with God, Like if this movie makes another billion, like, how can
James Gunn say like we shouldn't do Like how can you pitch that to David's
as Off and all these people and say, well, yeah, we really
shouldn't do another joke or a hardy movie, because like that's true. But
again, Kirkul, this man's like a fucking politician. Give me a number,
sir, You've not given me a number. He keeps, keep just
spinning your wheels here a certain run the Prime Minister of Canada, I would
probably say, because yeah, it's it's definitely gonna happen, but it's gonna
be very much a process to happen, So I probably God probably go like
eighty five ninety percent that it's gonna happen. It's definitely gonna happen. But
still tim person and not, Okay, let me hit you at this one,
because this one has been announced. What is your percentage on us getting
a part three? Because I remember's supposed to be a trilogy, right,
so what's your percentage on us getting part three? I'm gonna say it's tricky
for you there I heard. I'm honestly gonna probably go a thirty five percent
that it could happen. Now, am same question to you, Mike.
You said you're very common a part two? Tell me about three? Am
I putting all of my like, my life savings on them, my retirement
plan? Fuck? No, I think that if this part two is like
you said, if it hits that billion dollar mark, if it does three
quarters of a billion, I think that, you know, we could yield
some people pushing James Gunn into like, hey, we need to get another
one of these rolled out promptly because it's a moneymaker and people like this.
So I think that that thirty five percent could easily change and go up to
like a ninety five percent if the Batman Part two is a huge success.
Uh. Some question before I get to Kirklan here only in very confident that
feels the guns worried about his DCU Batman. I don't know about worried because
they they're still raining. But it is like an awkward thing of you do
have to pick a entry, right, And it'd be different if we're at
the end of the trilogy, but we're in the middle of it. So
it is the thing of like, you have one more movie coming out and
then you still have an additional one if that's the plan, right, So
let's see has a flash director quietly moved off DC Batman after the Flash flop.
We that's been like low tier scuttle. But I think as of right
now it's still the plan. But I'm not gonna hold my breath on that,
but I think that's still the plan. So Reeves would have to film
two and three back to back, and I wish that rumor was true because
that to me was like the guarantee of one, they would come out a
lot quicker, uh, and two it just would be guaranteed, well not
guaranteed, right, because they filmed fucking Backer and we're not saying that,
so nothing is guaranteed over at Warner brothers, but it would be a lot
more likely if they got behind the camera. So and super Ma Miss He's
a seventy five percent could change depending on both Part two and Superman do.
And that's where I am too. For me, I think that I'm not
gonna say one hundred percent of Part two happening, but I am ninety five
percent. But the percent always lessens a little bit as further we go,
just because it's just like, where the fuck is this movie? Al Right,
Like let's let's get cracked, and I know the strike did happen and
whatnot. I think Part three that's the one I'm not confident on because I
think if we live in a world where the Batman Part two and Superman do
very close to each other, or if Superman even does better, I think
there's a conversation James Gunn could say, Hey, this this Batman Part three
could hurt our brand. The Superman did really well, I could give you
a Batman movie like this that's gonna go on to do Justice League and make
multiple movies. And I don't know, I could be completely wrong. If
gun lets Batman two and three happen, He's gonna have my support. One
hundred percent no matter what happens in the future, because it's like I won't
say a man of his word, but like I trust I like that he
let them see that through, right, and I do like he did say,
oh, we're gonna do elseworld, So like here's your pivot, here's
your reason to do Elseworld's like, here's your proof of the pudding. Now
show us. So as I've said before, it's not that I won't watch
them, not gonna be like I'll never watch those movies. But if those
movies don't happen, I like my excitement for gun and what he's doing just
takes a fucking nose diive. But so I'll say in ninety five on The
Batman Part one with a very hard war on at five percent, and I'm
a I think I'm with you, Mike a set, I'm onna I'll drop
a little bit to seventy percent. But then again ask me in twenty twenty
six after everything happens, because that's the other thing too, is keep going,
Like if it gets delayed again, I just wonder too, like does
that help or hurt it? Does that anticipation build it or by time we
get the Batman part two. The people are like, I don't care anymore,
Like it was way too long. You have my attention. I want
to see a fall up. Luckily, they do have Penguin right now,
right, and that's gonna be connected to the world that's coming out this year,
so that is like a good kind of appetizer. So that does help.
And I think Passing will be in that show. But that movie it's
gonna be like what came out twenty twenty two, So four years a twenty
twenty six happens, you know. I think too that if there is the
issue of James Gunn trying to introduce his own Batman for his own James Gunn
d Yeah, the movie's announced already, rights, I think that that should
be uh by the time you get that out, you should have this the
Batman trilogy done right. No, obviously, like you said, the strike
and everything going off, Like if he is worried though, and he just
wants to have the spotlight focus on his Batman and his university is creating and
you have another Batman here, I just feel like he should I just think
about this. If Batman two comes out in twenty twenty six, when do
you think Batman three would come out, like, well, that's a three
years. Then I feel like it's coming out in twenty twenty six because James
Gun is probably I'm not saying he's intentionally making problems, Okay, it goes
on set like kicks a can of pain, like all set. There's no
set. Yeah, there's not even a set, okay, but that my
problem is my issue to use Part three though, then, because that's not
gonna come out soon. That would mean like twenty twenty six, Part two
comes out, and then you have I would say, at least three years.
So you're telling me James Gun is not going to make a batmanvie till
twenty twenty nine, Well, what how long do you need to make a
movie here? How how long does it? Four years for the Batman,
four years for the bat Well, I mean no for the sequel. So
for the twenty twenty two you said, right, they were shooting COVID.
I think COVID was tough, right, because a lot of stuff got shut
shut down. So it's like it's not a good comparison, right because we
didn't get an apt like they were shooting the Batman. COVID happened. They
shut down, and they went back passing got COVID, they shut down again,
So like we don't have a full long thing to help you with something.
I guess like all the Nolan movies were three years apart, which we're
already going longer because it's gonna be four years. Yeah, and you have
Yeah, when you take COVID and you second the strikes, then it does
delay it all. So like James Gunn, you're saying, James Gunn can't
put out a Batman movie minimum to two thousand and thirty, Like that doesn't
seem right. He can, but I I just it partly does feel like
he's just gonna have some kind of resentment the fact that hey, this is
remember the Batmobile drama shut it down, is right there having on its kicking
bank cans around. I just I just I just feel like, yeah,
it's it's like I said, it's not his priority. And to have two
Batman projects where he's this other one that wasn't under his umbrella and you got
the other one, yeah, separated on set pass and reeves. Yeah,
tough times. You know, do you want me to go in the barns
or do it after No, it's Kirkland, Yeah, I guess did it
take I guess rises did take four years. I forgot about that, which
is funny because Spidermen four also or Spending three also was longer than they plant.
So it's always that trilled you on. Yeah, because I guess what
Dark Knight came to two thousand and eight, So yeah, there's there's four
years there. So Kirkland, are you still confident we're gonna Batman two?
I'm very confident. I'm in the ninety five okay, yeah, not the
low ninety five range, no, I'll thick on the high higher end,
teetering between ninety six and ninety five. Yeah. Good, Okay for part
two? Are they filming back to back? Because if not, I'm gonna
say, like Gun says, ninety yeah, Gun said no. Yeah.
I mean, if it's a super critical hit makes a shit a ton of
money, it's hard to make. It's hard to not make that movie.
So and I, like, I have high confidence that it would do really
well. I don't know skyrocket numbers, but like, I think it would
be very very well looked at for the numbers wise, at least, do
you think it would do on par with the first one which was the three
quarters of a million or better. I think it'll be close. I would
be surprised if which wits it, which I'd be surprised if it beats it
so close lower though, ok yeah, slightly lower, but like even if
it's close, like I think that's acceptable. That's a really yeah too.
And I guess it depends who the villain is, because like it's funny where
we were in twenty twenty one a post Now. I don't think he's the
main villain, but I think he'd be an advertising like very key in there.
Well yeah, all like think about very very key on before the Batman
and now like he's a you like, a much bigger star like that he's
in fucking Sabrina Carpenter's like music videos and everything like like that does help a
little bit. So again, we don't even know the actors and villains evolved,
right, We're just going off on a whim here, so okay,
correctly, any thoughts on these, you know, the dates obviously not much
there. That's just update the people that you know. Penguin, which is
good. We got dates for we don't got like the official dates, but
Penguin then Creature coming out this year confirmed, and what are those castings?
Could you see? That's exciting? Then I cut you off twice. There
those rumors of the castings of the DCU Batman, Tumble James Guns Batman and
Batman Ben Barnes. Did you ever see the Prince Caspian or whatever the fuck
his name was? And I never saw Prince Caspian. You're dead on.
When you said his name, I heard it as Brent Barnes, and it's
like some rugby player in New Zealand. So yeah, I was like,
this probably is the guy, but uh, I think it's I think it's
fine. He looks handsome, it looks like you. I don't believe this,
by the way, it's just a rumor. It's just a seatier rumor.
But I'm just throwing her out there if it happens. I mean,
it's no Chunk, right, what's that guy from the Goonies? Chunk is
his name? Chunk? Yeah? Not Chunk Chunk, one of those?
Yeah. What about old Maaron Rake, mister Han Solo? As as how
Jordan the Green Lantern? What was he in recently? It was more Oppenheimer,
okay, and fair Play, which you haven't seen but very good.
Still top of Shay's and I list you know, you're listening to you and
Emily's thing where it's like like I'm waiting, but like I know I'll get
in ship if I watch this without her, So I'm excited to see it.
She's got I mean that actress in Bridgeston right now. Yeah, New
Park coming out tomorrow, so she's excited for that. But yeah, I
forgot about that. Back to Alden, Yeah, I like it. I
like it. Yeah, I want to see him in more. I don't
want to just think of solo when I think of that guy, like,
I think he's better than that. So because fair Play is he like bumbs
up, He's really good. He's really good at playing like a piece of
shit type of guy, so which he's a coming. No, he's a
really good guy playing like a very toxic, wimpy male. And that's my
pitch of why I don't think this is true, because I feel like Appenheimer
fair Play, he is finally starting to get out of that Hey you were
part of that soulo Bam movie. Does he want to go back to like
a superhero big genre thing like maybe he does? Of course the Bunny is
always good, but I feel like he's on a good path where I'd like,
maybe stay away from that. I guess he was in Cocaine Bar.
I completely forgot he was. Yeah, that movie was forgettable for me,
So I think, stay away from that, And like Ben Barnes is Batman,
like I'm down with it. Sure. I like Ben Barnes enough for
me. I've said this before, I have an unfortunate skewing with the Brave
and the Bold movie. It's not that care always take more Batman. I
love Batman and I love the idea of Batman and Robin. But for me,
it's just like I already have the perfect Batman going on. I don't
know if Passen is my best Batman, but he's definitely If I get that
trilogy, I'll be able to, you know, make that right now,
it's him or Bail. I could see I could make a case for Passing
right. So for me, it's like I don't think Ben Barnes would blow
off my socks, but I don't really need him too, because like,
if the Batman series does continue, I have my Batman and you can kind
of go get whoever you want for the DCU one, so that one feels
more believable than the old and air right thing. But I don't know so
both of them. Like he'd be good at hal Jordan. I think you
do a fine job. I could see him with the mask and everything.
It's just like, does he want to do that after? Like he said,
he's finally starting to not be thought of as Han Soul, which I
thought was a big mistake. I don't think it did anything for his career.
But isn't DCU Batman meant to be older because he is Robin How old
is Ben Barnes. Isn't he like in his forties? He's forty two.
Yeah, that's an older Batman to me, Like Ben Affleck is like you
can have a fucking kid at the age of sixteen. So like what he's
like, he's in fucking wherever rozal Ghoul is him and Tyler. You're on
the patio having a good time, you know, they're hanging out. Superman
lands and come check on them, and he's just wondering what's going on and
uh, oh man, we don't we do? And a Superman's getting his
suit on. He just looks over and Batman and Tally are just you know,
producing Damian like it's a sixty. Like the kid's like, what sixteen
years old? He has a kid at twenty that makes him thirty six.
Like that then to me is like anyone that's like really thirty five and above,
I think is fine because you can age him up the same thing as
Athletic. They age him up to be like an older Batman, right,
but he wasn't. He had like the gray hair and everything, So I
think Ben would be older. And I think Patterson's also about to be forty,
but they're portraying him as like a younger Batman. So we're we live
in there. But Taylor, what are your thoughts in these rumor castings?
I mean Ben Barnes, Yeah, Prince Caspian's Great Voyage done Traider out so
much, But I like Prince Casipian. Those nine movies are solid. Seventh
Son, I haven't seen a long time, but I owned that. I'll
have to go back and and check that one out. Fucking Seventh Son.
You shut that like me and kurtl and love it, Like, oh yeah,
so what is that? You don't know? Seventh Son? It's got
Jeff Bridges, Julian Moore, Carrington's in it like stack cast. He was
a massive bomb, wasn't it. It was a bomb, Yeah, yeah,
yeah, that went take off. Never heard of this. Oh it
was a bomb and a mass of budget ninety five and ten balks off a
one hundred and fourteen, so it made its production budget back. But I've
heard that movie was awful, Seventh Son, but you liked it. I
have to rewatch it because it's been a long time, but I liked it
enough to have bought in it. So jesus, I know Stardust. So
that's another Ben Barnes on that. I really right. That one's a good
one there. That's candor uh seven, So walking a two out of five
on the letter box, and I got no one that's seen it, so
it's time for you to grade it. That's that's interesting. That's interesting.
Comparison is in there too. They're going good back in the day. No,
I know the book was popular. People really didn't like it. Madison
likes it, but it's not every now and again. Jim Hunts who was
in Seventh Sons, so he probably plays a very similar character he plays,
So Ben Barnes as a Bruce Wayne. I'm there for it. He can
keep the accent. Uh, that's that's okay with me. The British.
Does he have a British accent? Right? He's born in London, so
no, he can't. Why not, well, James Gunn he can.
He can change it up, right, That's that's wanna be different from the
the American like a gaslight Batman style. And what about your boy solo being
a lantern? Would you be down for that? Hal Jordan's you know,
it makes a little two happen. I'm I'm there for Alden, I like
I am. I think he's fantastic. I don't know if he wants to
said that way, but to German, just imagine is like some Hollywood interview
and every time he season on the red carpet, the fuck I don't want
all that? I like, they're oh, fuck man, I don't like
this. Jesus. I'm absolutely there for him, though I'd love to see
him as a green lantern. It's been a while since we have the lantern
on screen, so aleap been a long time. That was supposed to be
the original kickoff to the DC universe, and then that failed and they didn't
Man of Steel and that I won't say fail, but to start with a
questionable start, and then here we are again. Take three. You've had
green lanterns on screen since right, like Justice League, Yeah, when both
the Darks had killed one, right, and then yeah they did, and
then Snyder tried to get a green lantern in the finale, right, remember,
but they would't let them. So that's why Manhunters in there. Why
wouldn't they let him? They had the quote was they had plans for him,
really and what are those plans? Sony making these plans? I think
they just didn't want Ze active a lantern in the movie, like I think,
because anything I remember that was the one episode you me hosted for uh
DC Alliance was when those photos came out of the guy that he cast and
they shot the scene. Snyder has that scene somewhere, but they couldn't.
He wasn't allowed to put lantern in the movies. That's like, like,
this could have been my fucking movie. Come watch this. Let's I feel
like this is equivalent and in correct me if I'm wrong, If you you
really you're you're attracted to someone and that someone is like, no, I'm
saving myself for marriage, and you're like okay, okay, I'll wait.
They go and they sleep with someone else, is that kinda it's kind of
like, yeah, we're down the DC news, right Yeah. Yeah,
So there you go, the else
