Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna round off all these movies and
shows and you guys can decide what talk about. You
might need to proll up the details on the stream
and if you forget any but here you go.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Movies and TV shows that are in the worker have
been announced Mass Effect Amazon show which has come out today.
Agent Venom is supposedly in the works at Sony. That's
with Flash Thompson. He becomes a military guy. He goes
to war, loses his legs, gets the symbiote, and the
symbiote like gives them his legs back, and he becomes
like an ass kicker. But he stays in the suit
too long. He's he's stuck that way. There's three live action,
three live action lego movies in the works over there.
Patty Jenkins is doing one of them, so I can
give you the full rundown. After Ridley Scott revealed that
he's producing a new alien film. Disney is making a
live action Prince Charming movie with Chris Hemsworth and supposedly
dead Daisy Edgar Jones that was rumored today. And there's
a Game of Thrones movie in the works. There's an
Outlast movie, and God's All minus one is getting a sequel. Taylor,
you don't got to tell about all those, But what
do you think about any of these? A lot of
stuff getting announced last week and this week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of stuff. The Lego movies.
Speaker 4: I really did think that that Lego Ninjago movie was
gonna be the last one that we got. I think
people kind of forget that we had that one, especially
after the success of.
Speaker 3: The Lego movie Lego Batman and the Lego Movie two.
Speaker 4: I've seen the trailer for that Farah Williams Lego project.
That looks like a lot of fun. It's a really
neat take. Is this included? Is that included in the
three movies?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: This is three other ones.
Speaker 1: And remember though those are animated, these are live action
Lego movies.
Speaker 4: They correct the other one thin well, the first Lego
movies kind of live action, right, because you have Will Farrell.
Speaker 1: I guess like I wouldn't put that as like I wouldn't.
It's tough because it does have live action stuff. I
wouldn't classify as like a live action movie. But you're
not wrong.
Speaker 4: So I would love it if we got I mean
it wouldn't happen but throw some bionicles in.
Speaker 3: There of course. Yeah, so I'm very much looking forward
to that. I'm very excited. Agent Venom color me interested.
Speaker 4: I am very excited to see what we got going
on there. I think that'd be a lot of fun
mass Effect TV show. I've never been one to actually
play the mass Effect games. It's always been on my list,
but I've never played them. I remember my friends were
always excited for them in high school, but I was
always just at the time playing Halo. That was kind
of my spacey age game at the time. But I
think doing a TV show is great because well, I
don't know a lot about the story. Doing a show
kind of like just the Fallout situation would help me
kind of get familiar with that universe and understand what's
going on.
Speaker 3: So I think that's awesome. Maybe Amazon should.
Speaker 4: Take Assassin's Creed while they're at it, because Netflix is
doing fuck all with that.
Speaker 1: That's quiet on that front, I was like three years
ago now, Yeah.
Speaker 4: Very quiet Ridley Scott producing an Alien movie. I am interested,
very interested, uh, just because of the success that we've
gotten with Alien and Preda Right now, and again, I'm
excited to read more of those Avengers Versus Alien comics
because I shared you share with you an interesting little
thing from that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's this spicy stuff go on. I'm excited to
retchre those next year when Predator comes out, we'll read those.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Prince Charming, I mean, Chris Hemsworth, you are, I mean,
he can do anything, he's a he's a great guy.
Speaker 1: I think that's a good idea, though, like a lot
do you think that'sss If they sit you down, Taylor
and Disney's budgeting, they're you know, not Marvel Stars. Disney
is looking at their live action movies anime movies for
the year, and they say, okay, tape, we want to
make a live action Prince Charming. They don't need to
do this, Okay, That's what I was curious. I don't
even know if I agree, because like I haven't really
much thought too. I just thought like, hmm, like that's
a that's an aw one. Also because like Hampsworth, O
Thor doesn't like have big movies, So it's not like
I don't know, I'd understand if it was like Timothy
shot to may Or like even running gloss and come
up a Barbie. But it's not like Hempsworth is like, man,
this makes this an automatic hit?
Speaker 3: You know, yeah, it's it's not an automatic hit.
Speaker 4: To me. It just feels like it's in the same
category as Snow White and The Huntsman, Winter's War, whatever
it is.
Speaker 1: What about this there? How do you even make a
Lego live action movie? Feels like a linking situation.
Speaker 5: Might you make a Minecraft live action movie?
Speaker 1: M Oh yeah, I guess you're not wrong. I guess
it's just kind of sonic esk where there's a lot
of live action actors, but there's a lot of CGI
around and yeah, three of them.
Speaker 4: Game of Thrones movie. I'm always down for more Game
of Thrones. I am still riding that high of House
the Dragons season two, Fantastic Show, Fantastic Outlast.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to get back in there.
Speaker 4: We've got to go back to the Asylum, all of
us four together and just indulge because I I that
world is just so terrifying and actually get a movie
centric or centered around that is very, very freaky to
think about. I'd love to be in a theater just
experiencing that. Yeah, just terrifying, just.
Speaker 2: To talk about.
Speaker 1: On side quest because yeah, it's the same thing. I've
been jones and for that because I was during Halloween.
I think we're just all busy. And then with this announcement,
I'd like to do a couple more Asylum runs here soon.
Speaker 4: So absolutely, Uh Godzilla minus one sequel, Yeah, this is
interesting and I'm curious what that story will entail. I
really really don't know at this point, just with how
that first movie ended.
Speaker 3: But the idea that this guy.
Speaker 4: Will get another shot at another Godzilla movie and have
an even bigger budget is ecstatic. Like it makes me
super super stoked because there was that little budget that
first one had, and how he was able to just
capture the scale and the depth and just the fear
and the terror from Godzilla in that movie was great.
So I'm I'm all there, and I'm so happy to
see him kind of take on like another Godzilla project.
Because we don't know if it is a sequel, I'm
one hundred percent assuming it is a sequel.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's anything else.
Speaker 4: Maybe it maybe would be a follow up to win
guards Godzilla movie, but I don't think that they're doing
him dirty like that.
Speaker 1: So Tayta doesn't remember this, but I remember telling him like, oh,
I'm sure with the success of this one was a
big success, will make a sequence. Oh no, no, they
wouldn't make a dragt sequel. I think so, I'm pretty sure,
and I feel like they were gonna do that here,
and Taylor was really liking of my pitches of where
the story was gonna go. But you gotta it's a
the first movie is about nuclear war. I fel like,
you gotta cover the aftermath of nuclear war like it's
a very because then you never saw my s one, right, yeah,
never did. It's like it's a god Zel movie, but
like it's a it's a war movie, and there's multiple
stretches where God's like the plot has nothing to do
about Godzilla and it's just about like PTSD and it's
like it's a very well done, like more dramatic movie.
Since I just feel like they're gonna go that route
of talking about the aftermath of a nuclear war and
what it can cause and somebody plus you know that lady.
I'm telling you too, They're gonna they're gonna do something
with that lady.
Speaker 2: She was shining. So they didn't do that.
Speaker 1: They I just feel like nowadays, you don't put like
a little end credit, or your movie doesn't end in
a way where it's like open book and like we're
gonna leave it there.
Speaker 2: You know, most people do something.
Speaker 1: So what about you doing any of these flowing your
boats three live action lego movies? A.
Speaker 5: I'll skip past that one. I don't know if I've
much to see what those trailers look like when they
come to be. I'll be very predictable here and talk
about the two video game ones outlast. Yeah, if you've
listened to Side Quest this year, and you know, I've
played through the entire trilogy this year, so I'm very
prepped and ready for that, And yeah, I think there's
a lot of potential there. I really am curious to
see what they do with the found footage element of it,
or like even just the first person element of it
with the camera. And you know, part of those games
is about the darkness and like conserving your batteries, and
so I don't know, I'd be curious to see how
they translate some mechanics like that. They very well could
just avoid all that stuff and just make it a
generic horror movie in in a sane asylum. But even
that is set for some fun stuff and there's some
crazy things that happen like in the end of that
game too, So curious to see if they go all
the way there or if they just kind of make
it a more simplified thing. And then I also be
curious to see how they implement a story element to that,
because a lot of the lore or intrigue of that
game comes or like the first one in particular, it
comes from like walking Doun the asylum, seeing a note
on the ground, reading the note, and that's kind of
how you get most of the story given to you.
Other than that, it's just like maybe a set piece
moment where there's a villain guy yelling at you, but
it's it's pretty constrained until like I would say, the
very end, so like and they could even switch it
up and have like multiple characters rather than just like
one guy going to this place. But I'm really curious
to see what that looks like and curious who they
get is like director all that kind of stuff. But
I'm excited for that one. I think that's cool. And
then for mass effects. So this is a big blind
spot for me gaming wise, And you know, I've had
the time I've had the bandwidth, it's on game Pass,
it's there. It's just never really appealed to me, the
mass effect games, and so this is honestly perfect for me.
It's the same way that last of us have tried
to start that game one hundred times, and I just
hate the gameplay. Like not that I think I would
hate massive gameplay, but it's like I want to get
more into that world, get to know those characters better,
but I don't think I want to put the time
and effort it takes to play through that game. And
so I'm cool. This is great for me. This seems
like a great way to, uh to get that story
across from me. So I'm into it. And I think
Amazon is a good pick based on the things they're
doing right now. I think they're they're a good a
good one to go with. Obviously, Followout was a great
example of how to do a video game TV show,
and I think that's another good example there of like
we're talking about follow Out, of course, that wasn't adapting
an individual game. There's a lot of references to characters
or factions, but there isn't specific characters or game storylines
that they're overdoing there. But I think through that show,
because they it was a TV show and they had
a lot of time, they could kind of throw like
multiple types of characters and throw characters on the other
side of the spectrum, from like a true good character
to a true evil character and characters kind of in
between on the spectrums. And I feel like with mass effect,
that's such a big part of those games is like
the decisions and I forget it's like renegade and I
forget the other side, but there's like are you making
the good or the bad choices? And like, ultimately a
show like this, if they are adapting the story one
to one, they're gonna have to pick a side, and
they're probably gonna pick the good side. But maybe they
can kind of explore that rather than just having like
one shepherd, maybe they can implement a couple other characters
in there on different sides. Maybe the companions can do
that too, with more like evil side evil coded decisions
versus the good guy started decisions. But I'm excited to
see what they do there, and if it is something
that goes multiple seasons and they get into the sequel games,
I mean, I'm pretty sure the games and of course
I haven't played them, but I'm pretty sure the games,
like the sequels just straight up make some of the
endings canon and like you just have to deal with it,
even if you pick the other options. So I'm sure
that they would do that here and just pick, like,
what is the best story that we want to tell,
We're just gonna go with that, rather than doing some
weird like multiple choice thing. Obviously that format doesn't work
as well unless you do like Band or Snatch on Netflix,
which was, you know, not the norm by any means.
But yeah, I think that's a really, really great pairing.
You know, Amazon has the budget to make a big
sci fi think like that happened too, So I think
that that's a really great parent. I'm pretty excited for that.
And ye, run a good Paragon that was the other
side Paragon leaks make for them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you answered mixt question because he asked, do you
guys think massfect show would directly adapt the games or
go the Fallout route and.
Speaker 5: Create I think that one would more adapt the story
of the game of the games rather than do the
Fallout thing. I think that makes a bit more sense
for Fallout isn't a narrative game. But I also feel
like it is such a free form open game and
you kind of make your own story, whereas Mass Effect, yes,
you have decisions and stuff, but like it is a
more linear story and it is more of a narrative
focused thing. So I think you go that round. Like
the character the player freedom is probably less so than
like a Fallout where you can go any sort of way, uh,
in terms of like your character be really dumb or
really smart, or use different types of weapons even and
be a hacker, that kind of thing. I feel like,
from what I understand, massfects a little bit, a little
bit more narrowed, a little more focused on the scope
of things.
Speaker 2: Right now, Two things.
Speaker 1: One you said, because uh, you've never booted a mass Effect, right, you.
Speaker 5: Just never booted Okay, we've been booted on a console
that I've because holding a controller.
Speaker 1: For Okay, because at least the last of us under
said you said you booted up and then not for you,
so you went away. But I'm just saying, maybe let's
circle back, because this is I've been wanting to replay them,
because I've played one and two, never played three because
I heard controversial things and just didn't have the bandwidth
a that time, but I bought the what was on
some deal, the whatever they did that collector the Legendary Edition. Yeah,
I bought it because, like, I would like to have
these games because I had them on Xbox, but I
like now transfers from a PS four and PS five,
So maybe tentively put that schedule be down to.
Speaker 5: At least do a retro about seventeen hours, about twenty hours.
That's not so bad for RPG.
Speaker 2: Oh, I guess, but that's a side.
Speaker 5: Quests and stuff. He adds the time, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's what I was gonna say, because that,
for me is the closest a game has ever captured
this like Spirit of Nights or Republic, like as far
as your decisions, and Mike is right where it's like
that's the one where it's like they do cross so
like a lot of your choices do crossover, which is
great when I boot up to you had this this,
and this is like, oh, I think I'm playing this
same character. But yeah, the more important point points are
not choice based, and yeah, that's exactly it, right, And
that's where I think they'll because you could easily look
at this and go, oh, well, fall Out, they already
did that, the whole student new storeline set in the world.
Speaker 2: Why don't they do it again?
Speaker 1: I think, you know, fall does have some you know,
iconic games and characters, but I don't think they have
any one character that's iconic is like Commander Shepherd, right
and command. The other thing that's tough, though, is Commander
Shard means something different to everybody because they chose their
story right, They've made their mission. So your Commander Shepherd
might be different than mine, but it's still a character.
It's still legendary person. So I think I'm fifty one
forty nine on them doing the Shepherd thing.
Speaker 2: I think just I think they will.
Speaker 1: There's other classic characters they can and I think they'll
just pick the storylines that suit best for going multiple seasons,
you know, and it'll be interesting. I trust Amazon. I
think it's a good thing to have because follow I
think worked out for them. I think again, Mass Effect
as a TV show works better than a movie. I
think Amazon has a budget and like Amazon doesn't have
like they got Lord of the Rings with their medieval show,
they got Fallout, which is their apocalyptic show. I don't
think they have like a big mainstream space show, you know,
so they're kind of ticking their box off and Mass
Effect does that.
Speaker 2: So Taya, before I go, do you think what do
you think they're gonna do? Are they going? Mike was
asking do you think.
Speaker 1: They follow the storyline or do they follout it where
they go, you know, do their own storyline, but it's
set in the world of Commander Shepherd all that stuff.
Speaker 4: I think you do the follow ut era era theme,
I should say. I think that if you are doing
something that's an original story, I think that's great because
you do have those pre existing foundations that exist with
the games, and like you guys said, you have your
own version of Commander Shepherd based on your decisions in
that game. So I think that if you were to
base the game heavily off of him, that might not
be super well received because everyone has different engagements. So
if you haven't just appear here and there as a
cameo character just interacting with the main character of this show,
then I think that's a really really good idea. There's
gotta be a lot of different stories they can tackle.
I mean, the only story I know of is that
there's this ancient alien race in there that's trying to
wipe out humanity or something like that.
Speaker 5: That's all another classic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, good t Yeah, Travis.
Speaker 5: If they do, if they do follow the games like
one to one, we'll say, for example, you think they
go man or woman for the for the for Commander Shepherd,
because that's always a big decision for people.
Speaker 2: Man just because like he for which one?
Speaker 5: Because I feel like a lot of people prefer the
female voice performance in that game, and so a lot
of people say that's like their favorite route.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just feel like who's always in the box
art though you know it is the male version of
Commander Shepherd. It's always the guy with like the hair
of mine where he's like a little more he's a
little more based off or No, that's just is that
not just of the new mass Effect game, like the
one that didn't.
Speaker 5: Perform The new one has like a helmet on.
Speaker 3: But you're right, that has a helmet.
Speaker 5: It looks like, yeah, dude, on the front of the
first one.
Speaker 2: Could you be like all three of.
Speaker 5: Them have that?
Speaker 4: Then?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I thought she was on the third one as a cover.
Speaker 1: No, that's the new game. Remember they made that one
mass Efect game that didn't go good and had a
lot of launch problems or everything. I wonder if that's
what you guys are talking about. It's like Massfect Androma
or something three.
Speaker 5: I'm seeing that there's a version for each, but I
don't see that for the first two games.
Speaker 1: Okay, Mike, you might be able to tell us, because
I feel like you have some uh mass effect fandom
going on, and that's true. Mike said, the writer does
not the writer they hired does not soon have a
lot of credits which I saw. It's like Fast nine.
And then Espo said, yeah the okay, no, there you go.
You got a female on there. And then Espo says
the Expanse was supposed to get the base game. I'm
not sure if they ever released that, but yeah, and
yeah they had the Expense, but the Expanse didn't go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, remember the Expanse.
Speaker 1: I don't think hit like what I'm trying to say, like,
I think massfac could hit like the Fallout sort of
levels and everything.
Speaker 2: And also we've got to.
Speaker 5: That Expense game is out now, okay.
Speaker 1: Apparently, and then as a super Mike said, the third
had both you could turn it inside out.
Speaker 5: There, you go the classic, the reversible, you.
Speaker 2: Gotta go fem shipperd.
Speaker 1: And the other reason I just don't think they will
is because with Fallout they have the female. It's an ensemble,
they have female lead. I just I'm trash told you
know it's gonna be the male Kabander shepherd dah.
Speaker 5: I mean, I think for a lot of people with
the game, it's not like the I forget her name,
but whoever, like she does, her performance is a lot
better from what I've said. But obviously with the show,
they're gonna cast someone well.
Speaker 2: And like they're in this business like the end of the business.
Speaker 1: But I mean, like even we didn't cover but it
was a couple of weeks ago they new showrunner for
the God of War show. So Amazon's crack like they're
making some big moves on these big franchises here.
Speaker 2: So I'm I'm excited for.
Speaker 5: A huge success. So it makes sense now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I'm happy it was because then we
get more stuff like that. So I'm excited aby that
s Pubs is right about that. You know what's his name?
Really Scott did produce another like he produced Romulus. I
hope it's like that, and because I don't I don't
want to say like his time's done, because I even
you know, we rewatched Covenant for the retro and I
even liked that more than I did.
Speaker 2: The first tie, which is the first time I gave
like a failing grade.
Speaker 1: But I just feel like it's I think what they
had with Romlis was a good situation. And I also
don't want them we double this last week with Predator
to oversaturated, So like I feel like Romless, the sequel Romless,
like let's just keep it of that for now, Like,
let's not go too heavy. I know people love the IP,
and I know Disney and that brand want to get
all that stuff out there, but like, if if it's
an additional one to to fede, if it's an additional
one and it's like him directing or something, that's where
I go. I think, really, Scott's good to move on
from here, you know, enjoy the enjoy the Gladiator or
success he's about to have.
Speaker 2: So you got that going on.
Speaker 1: I already said Prince Charming not a good idea, but
for some reason, I think it could be more of
an enjoyable movie because I think they're gonna play Prince
CHARMI as like a lovable idiot, and Hampsworth is great
at that right, Like he does that type of bit
all the time. So, uh, it's strange, like Daisy Edward
Jones is circling this. I thought there'd be a different trajectory,
but you know, Disney's probably getting some good money out there.
So Agent Venom, that's funny, that's rumored. Me and Tarya
talked about that last week of like what they could
do next, and I brought up Agent Venom because I
just feel like that's you can use Venom, but it's
like a new story and I guess that could be
your new hero. So and the Venom still some cache
and aime like it didn't have as bad as a
drop as Joker did. So luckily for them, they probably
look at they go okay, like, you know, trajectory is
going down, but maybe there's some juice in here. Lego
live action movies just start at one and go from there.
Dumb dumb idea God's always spoke about. And then yet
out last, I'm excited and pissed because I remember when
we were on the playing the game back in the day,
I was like, oh man, I bet they won't make
this into movie.
Speaker 2: Like I was just like had on the long bucket
list of.
Speaker 1: Like long term goals, like oh, I'd love to go
and just pitch this cause I just feel like it's
like it's like Even Until Dawn to me is like a.
Speaker 2: Smaller sony Ip.
Speaker 1: So I was like, I don't know if everyone's gonna
touch out last, and I even when we play Trials,
I'm like, you could make a very very good because
the world is small but still vast, whether it is Trials,
whether it's the first one, and I've never played the
second one, but there's so much to do and with
that asylum, I just feel like you can keep that
to a cheap budget and I think you can make
up easy profit with that movie if you make it
just decent. And I feel we were talking about that.
It's like what Dylan was bringing up. I hope with
the at least if they adapt the first game. And
I'm pretty sure the guy that wrote the games is
writing the movie or he's one of the writers, so
that's cool. I would love them to still incorporate the
camera some ways. I think they got to find new
plot points, maybe those notes and stuff you pick up.
Maybe you film flashbacks for those, or there's radio recordings
instead of notes of exposition. But I think Outlast, what
is a franchise that a bunch of people aren't going
to know those video games, but if done right, it
could be.
Speaker 2: It could be one of those franchises.
Speaker 1: That has like three to five sequels in the future,
because I think there's so much there and I love
that world. So I hope it works and we get
to see Missus Gooseberry on screen and stuff, and I
think it's right for the taking. So but I also
think it's a movie they could do. It does terrible,
Like everyone just thinks it's a shitty horror movie. You're
just like a basic bitch horror movie that they just
made it Try and check cash grab and then you
never see it again. So I hope they take some
love and care into this, and yeah, we'll see it happened.
So we'll take our last ak, we'll talk about a
few trainers, and then we'll be right back
