Speaker 1: Yeah, Blade still in development now set in present day,
is written gonna be written by Eric Peterson or Pearson,
who wrote Thunderbolts and F four. But I think he
has a more shaky track record than that, because Mike
did ask of how do we feel about him rating?
Speaker 2: But the first show this movie has a shaky track record.
Speaker 1: La. I was gonna say, you've sworn have you made
a pizza bed yet that it's not happening.
Speaker 2: They didn't take me. Nobody took me on the pizza
bet offer that I gave you.
Speaker 1: Still okay, so he's written, oh whoa, okay.
Speaker 2: Say it. You gotta say it.
Speaker 3: Other than okay. He branched out for a while.
Speaker 1: He wrote nothing but Marvel's stuff, but then he wrote
God'silvers Cang and then Transformers one, which I've heard Transformers.
Speaker 3: One is really good.
Speaker 1: But on that he wrote Marvel One Shot, The Consult,
The Consult. A funny thing happened in the way that Thor's
Hammer Item forty seven one shot Agent Carter Agent card
of the TV show Thor Ragnarok, Black Widow, Oh my God, sorry,
Black Widow, Thunderbolts, and uh and then Austine We'll see
it in a couple Flowers or Knu a couple in
forty eight Hours Fantastic four. He wrote that, So, yeah,
I don't know the stuff I've seen Ragner Rock, Widow,
thunderbl I love Thunderbolt. So to me, it's like a
probably smart to get somebody that is at least in
the system you want to get this script out. I'm
of two minds, so that I do like that fight.
I get what people say because fire he said, Well,
we just didn't want to rush us out. We just
didn't want a guy in leather killing vampires. I think
there's tons of people that do just want that, And
especially when you got someone as fun as Marshall Lee,
I think you can just like I think people are
actually fine if it's just like a seven out of
ten marsha Ley's kicking vampires ass. But at the same point,
I do understand Marschelle's a two time Academy Award winner.
You could make the case he's the best actor in
the world currently alive, So I can make that case.
At the same time, I remember we tell this a
long time ago where there was rumors that they wrote
a script and Ali just wasn't happy with it, and
he kind of wanted to be his black panther. I
think Blake, if that is true, those stories are true,
I think Blade might not be that character.
Speaker 3: I don't know if Blade.
Speaker 1: When we there's for example, when we're talking about movies
that can be important and can't tell a story about
mental health, racism, sexual rotation, I don't.
Speaker 3: Know if Blade, if that's Blade's journey in the MCU.
Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, how do you feel you feel the
still isn't happening, but Weiss is happening?
Speaker 3: Said in present day they got a new writer, they
planned to do it.
Speaker 2: He also said, you know Kang was going to be
replaced by doing absolutely before him and three, Yeah, I
mean I'm gonna double down and just say, yeah, I
know where something's gonna happen. It's just like the cracks.
I feel less you confident that in that boat these days,
like if you know it was maybe definitely less than
a year ago. I think is when I was pitching
you know, somebody pizza bet me. Because Blade is never happened,
You're never going to see it in theaters. I think
I'm a little bit less so on that now. Maybe
it'd be more hesitant. I've also lost pizza bets now,
so my com and this has been shooken. But in
terms of yeah, like the character stuff and the writing
pairing and what you mentioned of like what people want
out of the Blades, Like I'd be lying if I
said that's not what I want out of my Like
I just want what we got with with Oh my god,
what's his name now? Wesley Snipes's Blade.
Speaker 3: Just just just but it could only be there.
Speaker 2: I fell in love with Blade before I even knew
that it was a comic book character. Like, I just
loved that movie. I definitely am not expecting this Marvel
Blade to be anything like that. Hopefully there's a little
bit of stuff in there, but that was also just
like an era when I was watching like Underworld, and
like all of those movies are like very similar LATEX,
high octane music, sexy females, you know, and males. Yeah,
but yeah, I in terms of like a more emotional
story or sorry, an emotional character driven story, I mean,
I'll take it for sure. I get gripped in by
by great story writing around characters, but like that's not
why I'm buying my ticket to to the ball. There's
something else I was gonna throw in there too, but
like the.
Speaker 1: Writer, maybe that writer confidence written on some other uncredited
stuff too for Marvel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like it.
Speaker 3: It's one of their guys clearly, so it makes sense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think it would be like like if
I hear like mahersh Ali as Blade and this is
the writer, you know, I'm expecting maybe a little bit
more sauce on on I I'm not going to spit
out names on who I think would be a better
writer to replace him. But it just seems like, Okay,
that that's that's a safe pick there, and hopefully this
at least gets the project made and there's not like
get a random writer comes in, does something and then
they just scrap the whole, the whole, the whole script
have to restart. Like it seems like this guy will
be able to get something that Marvel and team, well,
we'll be happy with your.
Speaker 1: Is your pizza bet? Strictly just on the soul film happening.
Speaker 2: I never said this is this is a pizza bet.
Now you're you're trying to get pizza out of me,
I said in our lifetime. Maybe I didn't say that word,
but in the mcu. We're never seeing Marshall leaves blade
on on screen.
Speaker 3: Oh it was that extent in the second. But you're
not doing.
Speaker 2: You were hesitant. You were hesitant. I changed the wording around.
Speaker 1: But I feel like now they'll still even throw them in,
like a Midnight Suns or something like that.
Speaker 2: You know, is that a movie or a TV series.
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be. I don't think, oh, that's
one thing in this article. Fuck you confirmed that going forward,
they're just that. He said some years we could have
three movies, some years we could have one movie. But
he did say we're all we're just gonna one show.
And I think they really. I don't think a series. No,
I think Midnight Suns will be a movie, and I
think that's where you could throw a blade in.
Speaker 3: So I think it's happening. I do think.
Speaker 1: Like Unfortunately for me, that was like my most anticipated project.
I remember I was gonna like make like a counter
because I was so excited to see ali as Blade,
But I thank god I didn't. I'd be if I
would have held my breast, i'd be dead. So I
just like wanted to see this so badly, and I
still do because Ali's.
Speaker 3: Great, but I just like, now it's to the point.
Speaker 1: It's I think I've used analogy before, but I think
we've all been there, and if you haven't been, fuck
you got like the ten inch swim dick or just
like the tightest pussy around.
Speaker 3: But like we've all been there. It's like, where's he
going with this?
Speaker 1: Like when you're texting somebody and it's like that sent
up a date and it's like the eye, we'll do
this and something comes up, and something comes up, and
you just never know, because I've had both situations where
eventually the date happens and you go, Okay, that person
really was busy. But the end of the time, it's like,
oh this person had second thoughts or they in my situation,
oh you had a boyfriend the whole time. Cool, Like
you never know what can happen. That's how this has
felt like, where eventually, yeah, well, once you're on like
the fifth or sixth time talking about a date or
when you're gonna meet up, it's like, I'm not even
excited about this anymore, like this is even actually happening.
Speaker 3: So that's how I'm play talk.
Speaker 2: That's where I'm at.
Speaker 1: It's like yeah, like if the person comes back to
my place, like to me, if the blade we happens,
we're sitting down there watch together, that'll be like the
person come to your place, be like, oh fuck, this
is actually going down. But until that person sits down
the couch, it ain't over. And that's where we're far
from the couch with blade, you know. So, but I
think it's gonna happen one way or another. So this
classic absonalogy where it's just a very specific story. It
was No, there is this girl that was very very
good looking as a rebound.
Speaker 3: She worked at dairy queen and she was she was
like I felt very out of my league.
Speaker 1: And I was like that and I had no I
not that I have a game, but I no way
because I don't like asking people how to work.
Speaker 3: But I was like, I don't see this person anywhere
else and queen No. I worked at the mall and
they worked a dairy queen.
Speaker 1: And I was like I am anyway, and I just
like I always have good conversation. And then when I
just say give me your number, and then it worked
out lots of going back, going back, and then eventually
the date did happen nothing was really there. It wasn't
the greatest and like, I don't know, just not just
chemistry is the person was I'll just say, very immature,
and I was in that place and then but the
push this.
Speaker 2: Old lady down.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she was in her seventies and I was like fuck.
Speaker 1: But then with me awkward later on as that person
was in another friends group of mine and she was
good friends with another person I was seeing, and I think.
Speaker 3: That kind of tanked.
Speaker 1: I think that kind of tanked the thing I was
seeing with the other girl.
Speaker 3: So it was a whole thing.
Speaker 1: But I remember many times rescheduling this date to the
point of like, okay, what's going on here?
Speaker 3: And I've been the other two were we rescheduled date
and nothing happens. I said.
Speaker 1: That was a situation too where that I found out
got a number from somebody. Here's not specific one, got
a number here's a very So I know we're long,
but I'm gonna go through this way. I'm sitting here,
get at a number, having good conversation. Date keeps getting scheduled.
One day I get a text from somebody like, hey
and so So's boyfriend you text hummer again, I'm gonna
rip your head off. Yeah, I know, it was funny.
I went to this guy. I went to school, this
guy for middle school to high school. No fucking chance
he's ripping my head off. But that's what he led with.
And I didn't this just.
Speaker 3: No. I was like, dude, I'll say, because Kevin's in
the Chad.
Speaker 1: It wasn't Kevin Davis, but just like dude, Kevin, like
you know me, Like we literally were science partners together
in high school.
Speaker 3: Good guy couldn't have gotten you know who he was
just here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he knew, he knew I was, but he
was still heated. And this was not scum bay Tress.
Don't get me wrong. There's many times I knew SO
had a boyfriend.
Speaker 3: I may move. I had no idea this girl is
pretty looking. We had some fun chat here at East
Side Marios. Gonna get the number. Yeah, So then I
got that and then it was just like, yeah, if
you text my girlfriend again, I'll rip your head off.
Speaker 1: And I was like and I'm like who is this
and then weird like he dropped like the full name,
like oh we went to school together.
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, you're talking to my girl.
Speaker 1: But then I found it later on that she she
the story was that I knew she had a boyfriend,
but this time I did so I legitmly just text
this girl on a good time, then wake up one nautes. Yeah,
wake up to one guy day threatening and I could
never talk to her. He's like, well, can I just
talk to her to find out the situation? She He's like,
you know, he's just I'm not getting her phone back
until this is done. It's like, which is also just weird.
It didn't It didn't it a few months later.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I didn't. I didn't pursue that I I
could have. I was like, that's the red flag.
Speaker 2: So, uh, what did he say when you saw him
in person? Because you must have never did okay to know?
Speaker 1: This was after after we graduated this so we went
to middle school, high school together, high school with your
science partners, and like graduate, never thought of him ever
again till I see, bring your head off, this is
so and so, and theain thing like not gonna happen.
I I think I literally I don't know was the
first thing I said by definitely him with the lol.
Speaker 3: That didn't help in that situation, just because it.
Speaker 1: Was like I was like, dude, she didn't tell me, boyfriend,
Like this is so like this is like a year
afterigh schools, Like this is so small stuff, you know.
But yeah, like I said, I actually want them to
do a whole dress. Told you on the whole everything
from two thousand and ten to twenty twelve.
Speaker 3: So I met Emily.
Speaker 1: It was a whole Even when I met Emily, big
time drama because I was a friend of mine that
had no shot. Big friend was like always trying to
get me set him up. When he found we were together.
It was not good at best Buy. It was literally
a civil war where.
Speaker 2: You texted him, You're like, if you have an LOL
lady again, I'm gonna fucking head off loil. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was a situation where before me and Emily like
even got together, she was just drinking.
Speaker 3: We were talking and had a good time. She went
to bed. I slept over place because it was late.
I didn't pay for your caps. She's liked, yeah, you just
hang on here, so sure, but I got back to
then I slept over here and he thought I did
some stuff and this one me and were just friends
Like no, no, no, like nothing happened. He didn't believe me. Yeah,
no one believes me. I don't know what it is. Kevin, Yeah,
he wondered what it is. Yeah, but then I did.
Speaker 1: As I remember, we went to poker and he didn't
show up, and I said, and like, why didn't you?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I didn't show up.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, I should just sucked her.
I should have done this if he's gonna be yeah, yeah,
and you know the rest is history. Uh, that's not
why I did it, though, And me and Emily had
some great conversations. People appreciate Pixar Ilio and Marls Studio
Sleunderwolts once it goes to Disney plus, I think so,
but we'll make them want to pay for it.
Speaker 3: I don't know, let's see.
Speaker 1: Uh. Finally some quick ratils off here talked about Blade
and we get some other questions here too that will
transition us into DC.
Speaker 3: Uh. Yeah, we talked about this.
Speaker 1: Kim Fagy said that they have to stay away quote
from Miles Routs until Spider Versus is done. He also
said that Spider Man Brand New Day is a street
level story. But he also confirmed that when you talk
about Radar Project, which I think I get what he's
going for. But he's still said Punisher will be totally
different in Spider Man, but he did confirm Punishers in there.
So what do you think about some of the Spider news.
You know, he's a spidy guy.
Speaker 2: So he Punisher will be totally different tonally, totally different. Okay,
totally yeah. I mean this is like one of the
main This is one of the things he said in
this this speech, this interview where I'm like, Okay, I
believe you. I definitely thought Punisher was going to be
totally different than what we've been seeing him in Daredevil
and in his projects in the past, at least since
John Burnhal has been the just yeah, carrying that skull around,
I doesn't really change much for my hype. Like I'm
I'm still super excited for this project, no matter what happens.
Speaker 3: Street Level street level, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 2: I thought we already kind of knew this, or.
Speaker 1: I remember there's rumors of a street level, then there's
rumors Multiverse and backstreet level. But again, to me, this
is like the secret Warst thing where to me, unless
he lying, if he's putting out there that hate street Level,
I'm gonna assume Okay, that means we're getting a street.
He even said that not every story should be a
world ender, which is like, yeah, especially Spider Man, Like
he can be in the world ender, but just like
he's so many great stories that aren't that it's about
his world ending, but not the world.
Speaker 2: You know, hundred percent. Yeah, and those are my favorite
Spidey stories. Like I grew up watching those Saturday morning
cartoons and Spider Man was a big part of it.
So I I like Spider Man in the more like
larger scale team up galact of things. But like as
you said, like like he's a part of that team up,
it's not his journey of having to like like if
it if it's to a scale, it's because his mysterios
doing some magic tricks and it's not what the Eye
is seeming it to be. So I really like this news.
I'm still excited to see punishering him together the totally
different Punisher, but they're labeling out there. I already mentioned
I was wasn't too surprised by that because I assume
they would have to tone him back a little bit. Yeah,
I'm still excited for their their own screen chemistry. I mean,
I get that Odyssey teaser, and I'm like, fucking John
Bernthall and Tom Holland, let's go. Uh.
Speaker 3: For me, it's just always how much right.
Speaker 1: It's like you just got to find the right balance
where you can't have him slim throats biting people's noses off.
Speaker 2: I get that, just like the way he talks though,
like like I think that can still be the same
and just motivations.
Speaker 3: Too, just like that he wants to kill people. You
just don't want to show that.
Speaker 1: Make him more, you know this time, make it do
a you know tell, don't show, but you can't show
because a PG.
Speaker 3: Thirteen Because again for me, the like what you're talking about,
the speech is how he talks.
Speaker 1: For me, John Berthnell's Punisher being a spider Man is
not because like, yeah, I really want to see I
Kim just split a guy's scold and be like you
like that, Peter, Like no, I want like the same
reason why he's great Daredevils. They have a different ideology, right,
That's the stuff is seeing you know, Charlie Cox and
John Berthon will go back at it acting wise. I
want that with Holland, and that's yeah, it's great that
he can be punisher toting on Netflix and everything. But
I've said it before, like I'm happy for them they didn't,
but I would have been fun if you could do
a PG thirteen punisher like I want him to be brutal. Yes,
I'm just saying, because John Berthnall is so good, I
think you'd still bring that intensity, right, But let's see
and then what do you think about Miles. We're not
gonna be seeing him until Spider Verse is done.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm not too surprised by this. I it
just would seem weird if they're trying to like start
a new Miles story while that's already kind of going on,
especially like owned by Sony. So this being you know,
stated here, not too surprised by it. I'm curious because
I know Figy's just always thinking about things. I'm curious
like what his plan would be for Miles and even
if that's just like spitballing ideas, but yeah, just curious.
How I did say curious a lot there, But yeah,
I don't know, It's it's another I didn't even say
that time. Come on, now, it's another one of those.
It's like, okay, yeah, kind of expected that to be
the case. But uh yeah, like Spider Verse, like it's
coming to an end. It's not like we have six
more projects.
Speaker 1: Well that's why I think it's a very safe thing
to say, like, oh so stay away till it's done.
Speaker 3: It's like, well, you.
Speaker 1: Guys have said that the next movie is the last one,
so and I feel like that fits the timeline that
you guys are doing Avengers.
Speaker 3: I think even his brothers, it would literally be the.
Speaker 1: You know, Spider Man's Home is gonna be done, hand
off to Miles, and then Miles you get a net
trilogy out of right, And I think that's a different situation.
It's unlike Sam, where Sam I think people like that character,
but Miles has blown up as a character, whether it's
video games, movies, etcetera, where people have accepted that character.
Speaker 3: Right, So yeah, it's gonna be interesting.
Speaker 1: And even then, like I think he can only say
so much because I still think they're doing that sort
of deal where it's like they're making this Spider Man
movie and then Tom Holmes in one or two Avengers.
Speaker 3: But then it's like you got to do a new contract.
Speaker 1: So it's like you could be saying that, but They
could just be done, right, they could pull the shoot
this time and just say, yeah, we're happy what we
do with Halland but Sony wants to down do their
own thing again because they've said, like you know, they've
killed the Sony universe, right, that's no longer happening. So
it's like they might just go out, let's just make
our whole movies ourself. We'll go get some people, we'll
make Miles. They could do that, right. They don't technically
need Marvel to make the Spider Man movie. It helps,
but maybe at a time where they don't want to
give Marvel a twenty thirty percent cut of their money
and they don't want to have to listen to them.
I really don't know. But then there's there's been rumors
this whole time they could have made Spider Gwene Miles
and they didn't. So yeah, no, I mentioned there. Two
questions are Assimi. I think we won't answer them, but
just in case, may SA's does Blade being set in
present day make you more or less excited? And then
might you say want to piggyback May's question? Does Eric
make you more exciting? Like I said, so, yeah, we
answered the Eric pierceson one. I think we're kind of
like for me to ask me after I have four,
because I feel like that's more of a deal breaker.
Speaker 3: And present they are not.
Speaker 2: I guess past right.
Speaker 1: That was the original because they revealed this too, that
they actually sum the costumes from the original Blade movie
were used in Sinners because they already made them.
Speaker 3: So that's that's cool.
Speaker 2: But I remember meaning about that in the discord.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like to me, that's like, maybe that's why it's
a tough question, Maddie, because we did get just recently
a vampire movie back in the past, so it's just like,
well I got that so blake and being present day,
so I don't think it does.
Speaker 3: Anything to go up or down.
Speaker 1: I think I'm pretty neutral on I just want a
fucking movie that's halfway decent and let Ali just just go,
you know, let him rip, because I love Wesley and Nights,
but I think Ali could match him or best him.
Speaker 2: I think it was a higher ceiling for sure, and
like the floor is on par like, I don't see
it being worse by any means with the setting. I
think it gets me a little bit more excited just
because of what you said with sinners, like we just
got the Vamp hard moving in the past, so just
recency there. I'm I'm okay with it being more in
the modern and i mean Blade, the Wesley Snipes Blade,
like that was modern when I when I saw it
back and back in the nineties. And then in terms
of the writer, I think it doesn't really change my excitement,
but like maybe if there's some crazy what's the word
I'm looking for, Oh, it's getting laid here, but just
a more wild writer, maybe that would get me more excited.
The potential, the potential. Yeah, but then that's also it
could flow or it could uh not be so successful
because like this is like the safer pick. It's like, Okay,
it's not super exciting, but.
Speaker 3: We want to get this movie out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so somewhere in the middle there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, that's it for the Marvel stuff. So we'll
take an ad break and then we'll be right back
with the DC stuff.
Speaker 3: Will be right back
