we're here because there's lots of news to talk about.
We're gonna break it down. Travis has compiled a beautiful
list for us to discuss with all you fine folks
and throw in.
Speaker 2: The garbage because we're not talking about anything he told
us to talk about it.
Speaker 3: Just going ong.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna talk about Johnny Depp talking about being
back as Jack Sparrow and all that stuff.
Speaker 3: No, is that real?
Speaker 1: That's real, that's real. Brackheimer and Johnny Depp had a
conversation and he's expressed interest. He says, if the script's good,
he'll come back.
Speaker 2: That's the main topic then of today, not talking about anything, mu, it's.
Speaker 3: All about this.
Speaker 2: You're right now four hour just breakdown of what this
would mean our.
Speaker 1: One viewers Travis watching us just oh yeah, already stream
as soon as we go off. Look at that there,
I fucking called that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is our casts or these are
we oh.
Speaker 1: God, yeah, but no that that aside, that aside, We're
we got some pretty juicy stuff. We're gonna be breaking
down here at the Marvel and DC Realm with some
awesome film rumors potentially before we get into that. A
couple of plugs though. You can find us with your
Internet connection in the search bar. Geek First dot Ca
is our home base. Key First Cast is our Twitter,
geek Versus our Facebook. Can be sure to check us
out on the Patreon, where you can get ad free
exclusive early episodes. It's a great time to be a patron.
We just did a whole shebang of stuff for geek
Verse ten year GV Day. It was a hecking good time.
Shout us Travis for planning it out and coordinating it
and everything like that. But all that content is available online.
You can go back, you can watch it if you
missed it and see all the shenanigans, the events and
all the discussions that we had. It was a really
really good day and a really really good event altogether.
But yeah, like I said, Patreon is where it's at.
You can get all that ad free early content and
there's a lot of exclusive stuff that's available there and whatnot,
So it's a good place to be checking out right now.
On top of that, on the public feeds, we've got
our Alien Earth review that has been popping off now
with it premiering earlier this week. That's episodes one and two.
We have Dexter Resurrection that's been going weekly that'll be
dropping to well. Fridays is when we watch it and
we record the review. And on top of that, me
and Travis just did a weapons movie review.
Speaker 4: And other than that, I think, I.
Speaker 1: Think that's it.
Speaker 3: What do you got?
Speaker 1: What's popping up on your itinerary? Were you on any
side quests lately?
Speaker 2: I was on a side quest lately. Dylan and I
did a fun episode we broke down the Nintendo direct
for Indie World. There was some juice in there, so
definitely go check out that episode. I also gained my
thoughts because I don't know if you saw this game
read or not. It's been on some feeds lately. It's
like a practical suad game. I picked it up before
I went on my vacation and I was cooking it
up on one of the weekends there. But that would
be such a fun game to play with the lads.
I know, we got hell Divers coming up here pretty soon,
so that's gonna be taking some of our bandwidth away.
But uh yeah, just tactical shooters and general a fun time.
So we talked about that amongst many other games that
Dylan has been playing. So that was a fun episode. Yeah,
just GV day also da.
Speaker 1: I'll quickly shout this out because I mentioned it on
Sidequest with Dylan. But the game that I was playing lately,
it's called Mechabellam. Have you heard of this?
Speaker 3: No, I haven't, no google it.
Speaker 1: I feel like it'd be up your alley because it's
very much like there's your side the enemy side, and
you got like two minutes to place your units and
use your limited resources to buy units, and you place
them on your side of the board, your grid, and
then you basically and your turn, and then you watches
the units engage automatically, and then you have to place
new units to counter where your enemy places units. If
it feels very chess like, but it's it's a it's
a hecking good time.
Speaker 3: Interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I really recommend it, but.
Speaker 2: I have not seen weapons yet. Detoll, I am interested.
I there was just it was a busy week when
I got back from vacation. That's why I ended up
bowing out on that Thursday, and I was like, I
don't even know what this movie is. And I saw
a trailer and I'm like, fuck, this looks crazy and
then no spoil like I haven't heard any spoilers, but
just hearing you know in the discord chat about it,
and I didn't listen to you guys as a spoiler
free section. Maybe I should throw in that, but like,
I also don't even want to know anything because I
the trailer was like enough of Okay, this is what
I'm getting into. Same chap that did Barbarian, which I
absolutely love that movie. So and I heard the Indians
kind of I don't even know, divisive, but just talked
about and there's some crazy stuff supposedly that goes in there.
But yeah, it's on my list. It's definitely on my list.
I think that'll be a Kirk and Papa watch along.
I think we'll watch that together because I watched Barbarian
for the first time with him and that was a
fucking that was a hoot.
Speaker 1: I think you guy, you guys will really really like it.
It's a good time yeah, and he that director is
part of our discussions later when we get to the
film rumors, because there's some interesting talks to be talked
about then. But before we get into our news, here
one final shout out, thank you Kirkland reminding me the
pat Room producers, Aaron Braid in April Darkness, Jack Grant,
Sam super Bad, Mike Ala Christ is that a new one? Yes,
Christ himself, the Good God Loves Me sixty nine, Jeremy Wrin,
Charlie Rendell, Cocktail, Clay and John with no age. You
folks are fantastic. We love you. Thank you very much
and yeah, uh so before we get into our Marvel news,
let's break down the what we've been watching, Kirkland, what
have you been watching?
Speaker 2: My gosh, I don't think a whole lot since since
we did the stream rally bites. Yeah, sorry, Dylan, I
have not thrown that on the list. I needed a
little break from the ninety fours, even though I didn't
actually complete that list.
Speaker 3: But I should. I should, just just for Dylan to
just just think of my thoughts. Have you seen reality
bites since? No?
Speaker 2: No, okay, I would have been I would have been
feeling bad if you said, yes, there, but we started
Wednesday season duh, that's what it is, right, season two?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Have you started it or watched it?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: No? Have you seen the first season? Wait? Which sorry Wednesday?
Speaker 1: No, I've seen part of it. I've seen part of
the first season, but I fell off.
Speaker 3: Did you like it?
Speaker 1: I liked what I saw, but it wasn't really pulling me,
and it felt like it was too river Daily hmm.
Speaker 3: Interesting. I can kind of see where you're going with.
Speaker 2: I don't think it ever gets that level of whatever
the fuck that show is, It's funny. On Sunday, after
the cast, she and I went on a hike with
with Tyler Patreon. Tyler, you know, who was active in
the the Hidalgo section of our Geek Versus.
Speaker 3: Gv'd it ten year day.
Speaker 2: But we were talking about, Oh my god, I just
totally had a brain fart. What was I going off there?
What was I going there? Taylor Wednesday? Oh, Riverdale, That's
what it was. They were talking to me about Riverdale and
just some of like the arcs of we're going on
minor spoilers, I guess, or major spoilers for Riverdale.
Speaker 3: I don't even know IF's spoilers. I don't even I
don't even know who watches the show anymore.
Speaker 2: But apparently for the final season that is supposedly coming up,
they're like resetting the timeline, so it like it's like,
what the fuck is.
Speaker 3: Going on here?
Speaker 2: This is literally like a high school show, and apparently
there there's recent in the time, so final season is
going to be like them in high school again, even
though there's been like time jumps, that's all been after
like I jumped off that show because it was just
getting I think the show was always bad, but like
just my tolerance of it just got just really thin
by by where I was at, and that as soon
as Erchie was like fighting a grizzly bear, I'm like,
fuck this show. I'm out here, like like I can't
do this anymore. A little little side tengent there, but no,
we started watching Wednesday and we finished like the first episode,
and like, I don't know, it's not bad, but like
my spark for that show is just it's just pretty low,
like even like Shane and I were talking about like
putting it on again, and it's just like I don't know,
I'm not as as hyped as I am to finish
that one.
Speaker 3: We did finish the first season. I did like it enough.
I think Jenna Ortega and like pred much whole cast
like was really good. But I don't know. I somewhat
liked Adam's family as a youngin, but I don't know.
I don't know.
Speaker 2: There's some about it that's just not not pulling me
in as urgently as maybe uh I would have expected,
because I like when we was coming close to the release,
I felt like a little bit of an excitement there,
But now that I don't know, we passed it a
little bit, just just not quite there. But who knows,
Maybe I will eventually watch it and I'll be blown
away and I'll be saying should have got on it sooner,
like has been the case for many shows in the past.
But I mean, honestly beyond that, Like, I haven't watched
any movies.
Speaker 3: Since. I think I just kind of have to be
playing catch up now.
Speaker 2: I've also thought about doing a return to the Letterbox
because I took a little hiatus. So I think I'm
gonna be like the next film I watch, I'll be
popping up on the on the Letterbox again. I'm not
gonna try and like fill in on everything that I've
missed over the last I'm just gonna pick it up,
you know, Yeah, who knows, maybe I'll maybe I'll just
taper off again like I usually do with those sort
of things. But I'm gonna try and at least somewhat
be active on there because it is a fun way
to kind of look back and track, especially like when
we get to our end of the year of like
what we watched and ranking and all those things, or
Golden Geeks times, just staying on top of that sort
of things. But so, yeah, that'll be And now that
I'm putting out in the universe, you guys can hold
me accountable if I'm not actually posted on letterbox because
I don't know. I watch something and then I just
don't think about picking up the letterbox. And sometimes also
I'm like, how can I put in my thoughts in
like a quick little review, and then I just feel
like analysis paralysis and I just don't do it at all.
That's why I was always like a notorious or is
it when you don't review a rating, I guess you
just give a star rating. So yeah, that was my
buffer for the lack of content that I've been watching
because like I could mention like the Office, but like
that's kind of boring. It's just the background show that
I usually have on if we're making dinner or whatnot.
And I've been watching more like YouTube also, and just
like podcasts. Just while I'm cooking, I like to have
the iPad going with either a podcast and catching up
on fantasy football's coming up or two weeks away. Maddie
SAG's minded us in the in the GV Discord NFL
chat that that is when our draft is taking place.
So it's, uh, it's an exciting time for football fans.
And yeah, I think it's you know, I'm gonna I'm
gonna say it. I'm gonna think it's my year, but
we'll see what actually happens. I got first first pick
this year, so I at least can guarantee my my
first pick, which is gonna be fun.
Speaker 1: And why do you get first pick? That is that
because he came last?
Speaker 3: No, I actually did pretty good.
Speaker 2: I ended the league like before, we ended the playoffs
in first place if I remember correctly. I'm probably wrong,
but I'm just gonna say that because nobody's here can
can counter me. And I'm gonna turn off chat so
nobody can.
Speaker 3: Throw that in there.
Speaker 2: Matty saggses like the wheel of random you know, his
his favorite, his favorite randomizer. And he's an honorable man
because he always like wants to get someone like in
there with him so he can like prove that he's
not just picking the names. I think it was him
and John with no age, that tag team that that
that process, and sure enough, I think they're like last picks.
So it's like, oh, yeah, we trust you guys. We
we know you didn't rig it because you guys are
last pick, but just the luck of the draw. Last
year I got third pick and this year I got first,
and uh yeah, Travis was trying to trade that pick away.
I think he's like third or something pick Like, he's
a pretty high pick too. But it is always nice
just knowing that I'll be able to get my number
one pick. And I'm not gonna say any more of
that because it's it's game on. I'm not going to
reveal any strategies. What have you been watching the Taylor Field?
Speaker 1: What have I been watching? I started The Landman but
did not get very far. That's land Man, Yeah, land Man.
So it's another Taylor Sheridan project and I.
Speaker 2: I I just okay, we did a fucking I can
just tell by like the well, actually is what's that show?
Speaker 3: Yellowsta? Is it a Paramount show? Also?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay that makes sense because it looks the exact same,
just just like the art style.
Speaker 3: And yeah, because the show.
Speaker 1: Universe, I head canon that it is, but I don't
think it is. But yeah, there's just Paramount is just
popping off and we're gonna talking about that later. But yeah,
I just landman. So I've only got a little bit
in and I've really been enjoying that, and that's just
gonna be my kind of in betweener. It's renewed for
season two, so that's my in between her before we
start up. Eighteen eighty eight or is it eighteen eighty three,
it's eighteen eighty something. That's the other prequel for Yellowstone,
which I can't fucking wait to get into that.
Speaker 3: Didn't they announce like three and then they're doing Yes.
Speaker 1: So they're doing a nineteen forty something Yellowstone prequel which
I can't wait to get into that, Oh my god.
And nineteen the season two of the prequel series nineteen
twenty six or I can't remember nineteen twenty something that
just came out, So me and Madison we finished that,
of course. But yeah, there's just they're popping off. They're
popping off. And after that, there's a few other Taylor
Sheridan projects that I want to watch. I think there's
Mayor of Kingstown. I think that's I think it's called
Mayor of Kingstown, and then there's The Lion Ass. There's
a couple other projects that went off. Want to watch.
But yeah, so that a side, we went and did
Round two of Weapons. Madison hadn't seen it. I had,
of course because of the review, so I took her
to see it and it was so much better. On
that second watch. The theater was more packed than when
I went alone on the Friday night for its opening weekend,
and there was just such a good energy in there,
like they were like people were vocal, like audible gasps
to be had, and just people were like laughing and
like just freaking out and just so many things. It
was so good, and watching it that second time really
helped kind of connect the dots. But like, oh, they
actually did this differently than how I thought, and this
and this, and there's a lot of really extra things
in the background you can kind of look forward to.
But yeah, overall it was it was a dang good time.
Really really liked that movie. I really really do. What else?
Oh I should say too. When we were at weapons
and we got out of the theater, I think I
sent you guys a photo. There was a car that
was not put in park properly and it rolled out
of its parking stall and backed into the car directly
next to us. Oh that's so, I called the cops
and stuff.
Speaker 3: You did call the cops? I did.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Is that a normal thing to do?
Speaker 1: Call the cops.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I like, if there's a car accident, you
don't have to call the cops, right, like, as long
as you share information, that's completely fine.
Speaker 1: But the guy wasn't there in it, Like, the owner
of the car wasn't there. We assumed he was in
a movie. And then the family came out that was
in the car that got hit. So there was no damage.
It's just it was a slow roll and like a tap.
But uh, I call the cops. I learned that it's
not always nine one one. There's a non emergency line
that you can call.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they get mad if you call nine one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I thought, I know, I looked at massive
call nine on one. It's like, no, call it a
non emergency line. I'm like, oh okay, and they should
make it easier to die because it's like seven six
three three three zero zero.
Speaker 2: It's like who the fo is gonna memory probably changes
like every two weeks. It's like the most complicated. Yeah,
I completely agree. There was one time we were driving
on the highway home.
Speaker 3: Late at night.
Speaker 2: It was dark and some vehicle like it was like
a like a work truck, Like it was like a
big welders truck, lights completely off, like no lights on
at all.
Speaker 3: It's pitch black at night.
Speaker 2: I guarantee this person was fucking on percocets or just
drunk or something easily could have killed someone. I'm in
the right lane and he literally just started going into
my lane like like I had a slam on the
brakes and like this is this is dangerous man, Like
he could kill someone here, no lights on, like so
many red flags. And then like in my mind, I'm like, well,
the easiest thing to do is call nine on one,
but like is that an emergency?
Speaker 3: Probably not? You kind of need to do the non emergency.
By the time I fucking figure out what the non
emergency number.
Speaker 2: Is, this guy's like already gone, Like I can't even
see his fucking like anything to identify.
Speaker 3: It was just it was a frustrating situation. So yes,
it should be like nine nine nine, you know for
not agencies.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure there's a few that aren't being used
for anything. I was like eight one one is the
nurse's line or like doctor or whatever medical emergencies.
Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: They just got to change that. It's stupid, stupid.
Speaker 3: Were you there when the cop showed up.
Speaker 1: I was about to leave, but then the cop called
me and was like, hey, I'm two minutes out. I
was like, okay, I'll stay. And then so the cop
was keeping keeping me well for.
Speaker 3: The rest of him. Yeah, Pepper sprayed his face.
Speaker 1: What happened, Like, well, look, we we gave it more
information and the cop was like scoping out or whatever.
Madison put a rock under the tires stop the car
from moving, and then we left. And then the cop
called me like an hour later and said, yeah, we
found the guy. He came out of the theater and
never to see the daylight again. Yeah, you know, we
fucked him up, good Taylor, just like he said.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no.
Speaker 1: Apparently he was laughing and he said, oh yeah, something
to do with my brakes. I'll get it fixed.
Speaker 3: Ha ha ha ha.
Speaker 1: And the cop was like, was my first time having
a call like this, you know, But it's all good,
It's all good. I'm like, okay, it's like eleven thirty
at night. I'm like, all right, I have to have
a good night. So it all You must have been
there for a while. The movie was done at nine thirty,
and I think we got home at about nine fifty.
It was a theater just close to where we lived,
so it wasn't too far. Detoll and the chat better
man than Me too that I've been out of there.
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I'm one hundred percent with you. I'm like,
oh that fucking sucks. I might snag a photo.
Speaker 1: But yeah, the thing like it just was really kind
of I don't know it. You just kind of didn't
did it. Doesn't think in that it was really like
right there and happening, like.
Speaker 2: You just did you see it happen or you just
came out and the car was just.
Speaker 1: I came out and it was it was like that
maybe I was just for shits and giggles. I'll just
drop the photo in the chat and then detail you
can you can see this this chaos because yeah, I
walked out and I was like Madison look, and she's
like what what? And she wasn't even honed in on it.
And we thought, okay, well this is like someone someone
double parking and being an asshole, like what's what's going
on here? And then no, sure enough, it was just
someone's The car rolled back, the emergency brake was pulled
like turned on, so clearly it was just a break issue.
Speaker 3: And was it a new vehicle.
Speaker 1: It was like a really really old Honda Civic. They'll
do it, those Honda Civics. Man.
Speaker 2: Something very similar happened when we were at Big White
last year. We were up there and it was kind
of like spring season, so you know, the whole parking
lots like snow and ice, and but like I think
we came down for lunch or something and we went
to the car and like it was just melting in
the parking lot and because it was like ice, like
you know, visual or non visual viewers can't really see this,
but like the parking lot was kind of not flat, right,
so then as it was melting, the cars were literally
just sliding like on like to the side. And then
luckily we came down noticed that that was kind of happening.
So I think Tyler was driving, so he moved his vehicle.
But then when we were leaving leaving, one vehicle completely
slid into the side of another vehicle and the people
couldn't leave. They couldn't even get into their own fucking
vehicle because it was like sandwich between the two. So
when we were leaving, there's just like a group of
people like around the vehicle, just waiting for somebody to
like finish their big white day so they could fucking leave.
And like, I don't know what happens there for insurance,
Like I like, whose fault is that, you know, Like
because big white people they like tell you where to
park specifically like okay, come here, get your good and
then so like it's not like they parked incorrectly. I
don't know, it's just weird. Like I guess the people
just have to pay their own insurance deductible, don't I think.
Speaker 1: So it also bothers me too that there's no proper
insurance coverage for when you're driving and let's say a
bee or a spider, like a spider drops on your lap,
I'm gonna fucking freak out. And if I swerve and
hit hit a car or crash into a light post,
I should have some insurance to cover that spider insurance,
you know, I'd pay an extra ten bucks a month
for that kind of coverage.
Speaker 3: Happen often for ten bucks a month.
Speaker 1: Well, probably not that often. You know in Australia.
Speaker 3: You hit the brakes, you stop what you're doing, and
then you handle the situation. You hit your hazards. That's
what it's for. But I yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 1: I'm flying around and like stings you or you know,
or a snake in your car called slides up your
pant leg.
Speaker 2: Has that ever happened? I know the snake one hasn't happened.
But have you been stung while driving?
Speaker 1: I know? But I have had the uh more than
three times. I've had spiders on my legs when I'm driving,
and it fucking freaks me out.
Speaker 3: Where are you parking? Spider rally? It's terrifying.
Speaker 1: It's terrifying. That's fair detail. Here's the here's the scenario.
So I'm my car is the one that's lit up
on the left of the headlights on and yeah, so
this on just falls back.
Speaker 2: I did not realize, Okay, I see I was when
I looked at this, I thought it was like one
of the parking stalls where it's just like like there's
two cars and then one just like slightly slid back.
Speaker 3: But he slid like quite a way.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he slid across like the main aisle where
cars drive down and just rolled back. I just beat
the the Toyota behind him.
Speaker 2: So I was probably just stone too when he came
out of the theater by that vehicle. Not to profile
vehicles or anything, but he probably.
Speaker 3: Was comes out.
Speaker 2: They're just cops and like people around his vehicle. He's
probably shit in his pants.
Speaker 1: Madison noticed an N on his back on the shield too.
Speaker 3: That happened again. Oh no, the third time this week.
That's exactly it.
Speaker 1: He just laughed it off and it's like, I'll get
that fixed. He's not gonna get a fucking fixed. God damn.
Speaker 3: Interesting. Yeah, that sucks for those people.
Speaker 1: Looks like a boot. Hey, let's see, let's see a boot.
Oh that's just his spare tire.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's not a rim though.
Speaker 1: Oh spare I mean yeah, yeah, the spare.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Usually the Honda civics here usually got spare tires on them,
I mean the Honda and no fucking muffler.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: You can hear him driving all the way up and
we usually get like cylinder winer. It's fucking brutal. It's
the Madison hates that. She loses her fucking mind when
she hears that ship.
Speaker 3: It's like when we podcast with Travis, we hear it.
Speaker 1: Listen, that's true.
Speaker 3: Listen to his outside. That's true.
Speaker 1: That's true. God damn uh well, I think that's.
Speaker 3: All I watching. Good RecA.
Speaker 1: Oh I added something too for when forward laughing, or
give me, give me a joke, give me a joke,
something funny.
Speaker 2: Oh man, what did what? What do you call? What
do you call a bunch of ducks in a box?
Speaker 3: What? A box of quackers? I don't I don't know
if I like that.
Speaker 2: That's like we didn't laugh at all, So somebody has
to fill the air. Not the best joke I get,
but so it is warranted.
Speaker 3: You had. I'm kind of surprised that wasn't already.
Speaker 2: One of the default sounds like some of the default
ones that they have in here. Kind of we should
be it should be like this default one that just
stream Yards gives us we didn't even have this.
Speaker 3: Freak stream yards.
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of weird. We're gonna pull that one
out somewhat.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna learn the lyrics to that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to add the riddlers to fucking uh
from that one scene where he's doing like the opera,
like what are you doing?
Speaker 3: What do you do?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I need to rewatch that movie. I'll
get I'll put that in here for you. Make sure
that's I'll make sure that's put in because that's a must.
Speaker 2: Extra many points did you get specifically the Batman version?
We just hear patents and freaking out too in there.
Speaker 1: That might be better actually, just as the video. Would
you prefer the video or would you prefer the the audio?
Speaker 3: Whatever you give me, I'll be I'll be happy. Okay,
I'll see what I can do.
Speaker 1: But on the topic of see what I can do,
we've got some juicy marble news to get into here.
So have you heard Kirkland the latest here what the
rumors are for Avengers Doomsday where we're going to have
a Team Loki versus a Team Doom.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm. I didn't really hear about it before.
Speaker 2: Now it's a spicy, like main event fight, you know,
like another civil I guess it's not really civil war
situation because they're not.
Speaker 3: They weren't at one point on the same side.
Speaker 2: Well, and unless it is the actual Downy in in
in the mass, I guess in some way, shape or form,
they have been on a similar well, actually I don't
even know, because Loki hasn't really been like at least
with Iron Man, right, Like, they've never been on the
same team. No, because it would have been Loki and
Thor together, but and then Thanos pops off on him,
so we didn't get to like be a teammate of Downies.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that so it's definitely not a civil warse situation,
even if it's a variant or whatever, it might be.
Speaker 1: Their only interaction. It really stems from the first Avengers
film when you think about it, and just they have
that one on one conversation. Yeah, and two it's a
different Loki than the one we saw, Diane.
Speaker 3: That's true. Yes, that's one hundred percent true.
Speaker 2: I mean I I like the sound of again, like
the big fight title card of these two heavy hitters,
like great team captains. On the power scale level, I
would say, it's kind of tough for me to like
picture what Loki's power level is right now, Like he's
the man in the chair. He's kind of just dangling
these webs of the tree of whatever it's called the
Tree of I'm just gonna call the Tree of infinity,
tree of souls. He's in a god tier position.
Speaker 3: I guess he was.
Speaker 2: Already a god beforehand, But I digress. I definitely not
would have been my first like guess on on who
the team lead would be. Again, I guess it makes sense,
especially if you know, going down the line of like
him his team possibly being you know, the variety of
exiles that are like from different multiverses or whatever the details.
Speaker 3: Of that might be.
Speaker 2: I guess that makes sense because he has easy access
to them because he's like literally just the fucking I
do not even.
Speaker 3: Know the I want to say seamstress, that's not the
right word. What's the puppet master? I guess of the
galaxy and the different branches of the universe.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't know. The more I kind of
think about it, it does make sense he's been just cooking,
you know, in hibernation for a little for a little while.
I'm also just so excited to see what that character
is now after he's been in that chair for I
don't know exactly what the time, like how time works
for him in that realm, like if it's been months, days, years, lifetimes, millennias, like,
I have no idea how even perceives time being in
that area and just how much him being there has
changed his like psyche level, or if it has at all.
Like next time we see Loki, is he gonna be
just the exact same LOOKI that we saw at the
end of Loki Season two. Obviously that character had gone
through a lot of growth even just through that show,
So it's gonna.
Speaker 3: Be interesting to just see.
Speaker 2: Him but get kind of side tanging there. But like
going back to just the idea of Team LOOKI versus
Team Doom, and again it is a rumor, so it's no,
do't don't take it to the bank or anything, but
for Doomsday, I do like it because it's gonna make
like like it's not gonna just force us to have
Doom against everyone like right off the hop. I think
you kind of have to let that grow to like
the eventual like final standoff with Doom, so he has
not instead of just you know, blank Henchman number one
as his ally, like he actually has team like members
that or maybe familiar faces that we've seen before. They're
like maybe more on the evil side or or have
different motivations there.
Speaker 3: And yeah, no, I I I'm not like blown away.
Speaker 2: Like when I saw it, I was like, holy fuck,
they did it, Like this is the tea, Like this
is the team up and matchup that I want to see.
Speaker 3: I definitely don't have that thought by any means.
Speaker 2: Maybe I would have had it if it was like
an official like this is actually what it looks like,
like you know, seeing the trailer for example, and we
see like the team standing up there whereing their their
fucking team pinnies or whatever the hell they're they're they're
they're wearing and rocking. But I'm definitely not negative on
it by any means.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I guess we can kind of get into the teams.
But what's your overall thoughts on all this.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm pretty stoked. I've been waiting for Loki to
come back in here. It's just like Uncanny Suit in
the chat. LOOKI better get his scrwy ass out of
that chair. That's all I know. Bro will get cooked otherwise.
I want. I want to see him come in there,
like he's in a position of power and I'm so ready.
And just the idea of him building a team like this,
Loki just being so different from all the other Lokis
and him just having a bit more of a righteous
head on his shoulders, and he's evolved from what all
the other Lokis have kind of gone through, like he's
Loki Prime. I love the idea of him showing up.
You know, our Avengers, they're getting their asses handed to them.
It's not looking good. And then the portal opens up
and you got Loki strolling out there with his fricking team.
It's like all these other multiversal heroes and you got
different actors playing these variants of heroes that we weren't expecting. Whatever,
I ever get a bunch of points in our Superhero draft,
So I think stuff like that is just it. I
eat it up. And that's why I love the Marble
What If series so much because you get all these
different very variants and scenarios and whatnot. So I'm I'm
very much looking forward to it. I'm curious who would
be on Team Doom though, just like detail in the
chat saying who's on that team? Ah, I'm gonna try
and find that out. We do know, according to the rumor,
who would be on Team low Key. And then there
was some teasing as well from Ryan Reynolds. Did you
see that tease?
Speaker 2: I didn't see it, but you know, I saw it
in our in our in our notes there, and I
mean even even beyond the names that were listed there,
Like it's kind of like there's a lot of people
that qualify as like an exile, you know, people out
of their their like technically, when isn't that where you
would get like the Toby's of the world.
Speaker 1: I would I would think, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: So I I still kind of think that would be
held for Secret Wars, like all of all of those
crazy cameos. But I mean, anyone that's kind of been
plucked out of their realm I think kind of fits
in that category. The Doom potential of like who could
be on that team? Is exciting for me because I
think that's where you would be getting like the evil
version of certain characters, because like, there's no reason why
he couldn't also have his own variant tea. Well, I
guess he's kind of against that, according you know, again
to the rumor of his Maybe I'll just say that now,
you know, supposedly in here Doom will probably have his own.
Speaker 3: Team in Doomsday.
Speaker 2: Apparently he sees the incursions as a huge danger to
the multiverse wants to stop them, using Frankie rich mister
Richards himself Richards. Yeah, so that's that's that. But yeah,
what do you did you find anything on your quick little.
Speaker 1: I couldn't find anything on Team Doom. I couldn't find anything.
But I saw a lot of people breaking down the
idea that you're gonna have multiple teams, and I think
that's what kind of is reiterated when you look at
the Thunderbolts, when you have the New Avengers versus Sam
Wilson's Avengers, and then we've got the Fantastic Four, and
then we're gonna have Team Loki, and then we're gonna
have Team Doom. So we got all these different teams
and how are they going to really work together? Are
they gonna come together even are they going to be
very divided? And that's what I'm kind of curious on.
If they're gonna just all group up and be like, hey,
we are all Avengers that's assembled, or they're just going
to be like I said, Doom's gonna be just strutting around,
just taking names and whatnot. And then the portal's gonna
open and Loki's just gonna step out at the end
of the movie, end of the battle, and people be like,
oh my god, and then outcomes on Team Loki, which,
according to the rumor, we're gonna see oh x men
too detail. Thank you for reminding me about that. So
the rumor from different universes kept and Carter, Steve Rogers,
Sylvie Gambit, Hunter B fifteen, Wolverine, and Deadpool Hunter B
fifteen from Loki. Oh right, right, right, right, right, right,
right right right. I forgot about that. No mention of
Owen Wilson though. That's Mobias Mobius or iry Obi is
that his name his buddies Obi?
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, fan favorite. I think like there would be
some hooton and hollering in the theater if he Uh,
if he.
Speaker 1: Stuffed out of the port, that would be pretty sweet.
Speaker 2: I think he might be out of his out of
his element, as you know, the great John Goodman character
Walter would say, Yeah, what was I gonna say in there?
Speaker 3: For Doom Also, like, I don't know, I'm looking at this.
Speaker 2: We had him for anymore we had End Game of
course thanos wins in that first movie. I think it'll
be pretty similar of a situation. Like I, I don't
think Doom is going to be dismantled. I obviously they
could do something different than what the Infinity hor setup is.
Speaker 3: But in my mind, that's kind of how it'll go.
Speaker 2: So I like, Lookie has some heavy hitters on that list,
like the names. I still think they're gonna be like
getting beat up. Though, Like I, I think it's gonna
be not a decisive victory for Team Doctor Doom. But yeah,
I think it'll be a pretty sured victory. And I
think a lot of that will be just on Doom himself,
on the power that that he's bringing to the game.
We haven't seen him in action, but yeah, I don't know,
I I that's just that's just what my mind is
is going in that direction, and obviously I guess minor
spoilers if you've seen Fantastic four or not skip ahead,
But Fantastic four, like they put a lot of emphasis
on just the character of Franklin Richard's and obviously Galactus
like that was me motivation was to get this character
to basically replace him. And if like that is the
potential with this character, be someone like Doom who can
like really not abuse but take advantage of of someone
of that caliber, Like I'm interested in just how he
does that. And yeah, I can also foresee some some
doom Bots pop popping in that would fill up some
of the roster slots.
Speaker 3: Not necessarily being the main teammates of Doom, but.
Speaker 2: At least have them as as some hinchman to maybe
just have as canon fodder for our other characters, like
like the ones.
Speaker 3: That you've already listed. Captain Carter, Steve Rodgers.
Speaker 2: One hundred B fifteen is just so on a lesser
tier than all these other big names on here. It's
kind of funny to see, you know, no disrespect, but
like fuck, she's no, she's no Steve Rogers or Captain
Carter or.
Speaker 3: A little one Wolverine Wolverine, Deadpool.
Speaker 1: So but yeah, yeah, no, well said just again. For me,
it's seeing all the characters together. I think that's just
the the exciting thing that I look forward to the most,
especially in that live action representation. And I mean even
though it says Steve Rogers, hey, it could be someone
else casted as him, not necessarily at Chris Evans.
Speaker 5: So this guy just having fun man making movies, big adventure,
having a great time.
Speaker 2: It's so funny because that could literally be a clip
from him, like Red Carpet of Avengers, Like what does
it feel like to be, you know, joining the MCU
and just fucking like like whatever.
Speaker 5: Just having fun, man making movies, big adventure, having a
great time.
Speaker 3: Tom any any comments in your most recent divorce?
Speaker 5: Just having fun man making movies.
Speaker 2: I just fucking love that video so much. Get tom
an MCU. I feel like it's an inevitability, it's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: It's think it is inevitability. I think it's gonna happen
sooner rather than later. For oh my goodness, Well yeah,
anything else that you want to uh mention?
Speaker 3: What else? I yeah, I am excited to see the
team up. So I'm excited to see.
Speaker 2: A more like a finalized list of what the roster
could look like. Again, preface, it's all rumors, it's not
not guaranteed by any means, but just having some of
these characters interact, like the fact that you have Steve
Rodgers on there with Captain Carter like that is just
such a an interesting speck, you know, Like especially we
got a little bit of more backstory on Captain Carter
through like the the what If series of like how
she lost her Steve in that universe, and just to
have them both like cap version that that's a pretty
that's like an Avengers roster right there, and it's it's
kind of funny how we we've had a hard time
like figuring out who's going to be the Avengers roster.
But man, like there's some there's some quality there. There's
some people that could hold me on near on that list.
And of course Thor isn't on there as.
Speaker 3: Of right now. I yeah, give any.
Speaker 2: Thoughts on like where the other characters are going to be,
Like the Hulk, you know, there's the talk of him
being in Brand New Day so whatever might come of that,
but yeah, I.
Speaker 1: Think, uh, I never know with Hulk, you know, because
him popping up on a Spider Man movie never in
a million years when I thought that that's what would
be happening. But here we go. Uh So, I I'm
excited to see how he's going to appear in here
and what his tie to the story is going to be.
When you see Captain Carter and Steve Rodgers, I'm wondering, Okay,
is it going to be Captain If it's Captain America
and Captain Carter, like they're just gonna have full on
super soldier sex, just get down, just can't be able
to first mississ each other. Oh yeah, just going hot
and heavy. But it says Steve Rogers. And then in
the you know these rumors, you're someone like, Okay, is
that going to be a scenario similar to where Steve
Rodgers is in like the Hulkbuster kind of armor or
the Mark to suit or whatever that Stark builds or
something like that, and he's just still scrawny. And then
Peggy is obviously Captain Carter in this. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think they just did that because Captain America is
technically you know Sam Wilson right now, and then Captain
Carter like if they said Peggy Carter, you know that
doesn't that I wouldn't think that would be Captain Carter.
Speaker 3: And if Loki's team.
Speaker 2: Is just a bunch of freaks from different universes, I
guess that also kind of answers the question of what
version we'd be getting of the characters listed, because obviously
Sylvie is from another world, Gambit very obviously from a
different world. Hunter b is like out of the world's
kind of in a weird realm, and then we know
about the Wolverine and both Deadpool. So yeah, I just
more so making me think of those types of characters.
And of course you know there's like Kelsey Grammer's his
name that doesn't sound right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's Beast and Spectrum. Who is she from our universe?
Originally the other Captain Marvel character?
Speaker 1: Her name is? I thought it was, Oh no, I
know who you're thinking of. You're thinking of Carol. I'm
not Carol Danvers. What is her name?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the mom or the daughter, because I guess
the daughter the mom version though, could be on Team
Loki because she's like that version when she goes through
the portal at the end of the Marvels Maria Rambo.
Speaker 1: Oh that's the mom and yeah, she appears with Kelsey
Grammer's beast. That's right.
Speaker 2: So like those players are either on the bench or
ready to slap ass and no mention of them here.
Speaker 1: But and it's it's funny because like they really like
using Maria Rambo a lot, because I mean they in
Multiverse Madness, they gave her the role of being Captain Marvel.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: I think that's the version I'm thinking of, actually, the
version I'm mixing it with the Marvels and and scene
pretty much the only scene I remember from that movie,
beyond the images of course that we have saved.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't figure out what. Oh there you go,
there you go.
Speaker 3: Look at the quality of these images too.
Speaker 1: That's night of that's the night of the review quality.
Speaker 3: I has got this like or no, it was like
the video clip of the creek came here hopeful.
Speaker 2: He literally pulled that as we were driving from the movie.
I think I was dropping him off at his house
and he found that, Like he has his ways.
Speaker 3: He's a trickster.
Speaker 1: He's a trickster. Yeah, god damn, Yeah. I don't have
really anything else to add. I just the idea that
Deadpool could be popping up in here gets me excited.
The idea that it's going to be primarily focused on
this serious note with doom and everything, and then you're
just gonna have Deadpool ran dropping in just gets me
so excited. He's already used.
Speaker 2: Like minor amounts, right, Like, you can't just have him
constantly fucking doing doom, like shredding people alive.
Speaker 1: And he's got experience with the multiverse, right, so he knows, uh,
going in different timelines and kind of stuff, and he's
already doing it. He's already going to different fucking timelines
because he went to like six one six try to
join the Avengers there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you met happy Hogan.
Speaker 1: He met Happy Hogan.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of really fun stuff to be
had with that. And you're right, you can't have him
just going slapstick the full send for two and a
half hours. You got to have him just be used
appropriately at the right time. So otherwise it's it's Deadpool Doomsday,
not Avengers Doomsday.
Speaker 3: Do you think he's breaking the fourth wall? Yes?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like do you think he's the only character that
does it? Like nobody even acknowledges what he's doing.
Speaker 1: I think so, unless she Hulks doing it because she
hawked it in her show, right, but I think, yeah, dead.
Speaker 3: Probably doing this unless she's a Team Doom just the
evil turn.
Speaker 2: Crazy cousin Matt Murdoch, you know, just stop stop messaging
her or whatever.
Speaker 3: She goes full evil.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, yeah, she just uh, this goes on.
That's for you, that's for you.
Speaker 3: I love it. Ah cool, nothing else.
Speaker 2: I am excited for more follow up on this, whether
it confirms or deny the whole existence of this, but
I think it also just makes sense of having this
is the big Avengers title and to have like even
Thanos had his Black Order right of his that's like
ebony Ma. The other guys that I don't remember at all, but.
Speaker 1: Yeah, ebony Ma is the only one worth remembering anyway.
Speaker 2: Great dialogue, fantastic voice, really cool looking character. I guess,
like the the chick, the female one that had like
that that dual blade. She was kind of cool but
like not a lot of lines, right, like she was
just yeah, yeah, absolutely diablo villain. Uh and then like
even like her romance partner in that movie, like again,
just fucking cannon fodder.
Speaker 3: Yeah, one, nothing.
Speaker 1: Nothing. The only time they even alluded more to that
was when they were being like, uh dusted and you
see them holding each other as they fucking die in
game this scene. Yeah, that's exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well we're gonna take our first hat break and
we're gonna get into some d C news, So we'll
be right back and we are back. Holy smokes, we're
gonna be sneaking over into Gun's house right now because
we've got some juicy stuff here.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: So, you know, you know Margot Robbie, right, I think
I've heard of her.
Speaker 3: She she's an actress, right, She's.
Speaker 1: Ah, you know she Barbie is one that she was
in very major film, was number one a few years
back at the box office. So there's a chance she
may return as Harley Quinn.
Speaker 3: Do I discuss you discuss?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean what you're talking in riddles?
Speaker 3: Also, because like, what's the chance?
Speaker 2: I guess you have to clarify because there was a
quote by James Gunn. I think somebody asked them about
the possibility of Mark.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I thought that was attached to a different note.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's why.
Speaker 2: We're both here, you know, we help each other out.
But yeah, the quote from from James gun or sorry,
let me backpedal. The interviewer asked him the possibility of
Margot Robbie returning, and all you said was that will
be revealed down the line, not conformed, not conforming, not confirming,
nor denying.
Speaker 3: To. I take that more as like just.
Speaker 2: Not speaking in absolutes of like, no, that's never gonna happen, because,
like I don't know possibility of down the line. They
want to do some crazy their own. They're already kind
of doing the multiversal thing as we enter into Peacemaker
season two, but they, yeah, just just just covering the
bases if if we eventually want to go down there.
I think maybe, like you can definitely make the argument.
It's more than that. I think I also have personal
biases in here where I think I'm in the camp
that I would actually prefer them not bringing her back,
like to just do a full recast, Like I absolutely
love her as as Harley Quinn's fantastic casting, and she
just really brought her a game to that role, like
even more so in Birds of Prey. I think that's
kind of the best for like it's all really good,
but that like I just like that movie the most
out of all the ones that she been in. I
did like The Suicide Squad, but Birds of Prey was
something a little bit more.
Speaker 3: Just memorable to me.
Speaker 2: I think The Suicide Squad is still a really solid film,
but the character of Harley Quinn was a little bit
not of the head the head hauncho, I guess in
that film, but I don't know. I also have to
rewatch The Suicide Squad. It's it's been a little bit
of a hot minute there, but yeah, I don't know, like,
if we're gonna be going down this new era of
the James Gunn DCU with Peter Saffron on the on
the sidelines, I would prefer them just finding a new
actor actress in that role. And since I've you know,
been doing this for a little while, I've been able
to see some different versions of Harley, whether that's The
Harley Quinn Show or the most recent would have been
The Cape Crusader, which was like a very different just
look of the character, and I think it kind of
just broadened my I don't even think horizons is the
right term there, but I'm just gonna I'm just gonna
say broad my outlook on the potential of like what
the character is, because in my mind, it's like, Okay,
you got the version who's always wearing like the classic
like Joker card type character, which has got like the black,
white and red attire like the one from the animated
series I'm mostly talking about. And then like the Arkham
Games where it made like a more gritty realistic version
of the character, not so cartoony, but like in the
Cape Crusader, it's like a very different art style and
just I don't know, just like a darker version of
the character I feel, and the character is already really
fucked up and psychotic, but I like the idea of
just potentials of the character I haven't quite seen, or
maybe a different actor portraying the role in a different
light than I never would have imagined, like like when
we got Joaquen in the first Joker movie, like that
is so different of a Joker performance than I that
I've seen the past, and and like even before them,
there has been very different versions of that character, whether
it was Jack Nicholson of course, the late great Heath
Ledgers version of the character, but even going way back
to like Caesar Romero, I want to say, is the name, it's.
Speaker 3: The top of the head. Nice for that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just just different versions. Of course, of course they're
the clowns, but like still very different versions of like
the actor portraying it. And I think there's many actresses
out there that have been known or maybe their up
and coming that could do a killer job. And that's
not talking that part of me. That's not taken away
from what Margo did at all or me knocking her performance.
But I don't know, it's just we're in this new era.
Let's just put a fresh coat of paint on it.
I think to like my little you know, PostScript on
on that statement is I think I would still be
down though if they if they potentially did like a
a multiverse of like appearance of the character, just for
like a fun, fun little cameo, but nothing really more
than that. But yeah, that's that's my take on this. Again,
it's very just like some little remark that James Gunn
made in that interview that we're kind of dissecting here,
but that's my that's my overall take on all of that.
Speaker 3: Do you agree, you disagree, what do you think?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm inclined to agree the idea. You know, Margot
Robbie is a fantastic Harley Quinn.
Speaker 3: I really really like.
Speaker 1: Her as that character, and I liked her a lot
and Birds of Prey, But the idea of her coming back,
I don't know. Does it feel kind of like picky
and choosy of you know, James Gunn just kind of
deciding like, Okay, we're gonna take you and take you
and take you and again. He runs the show. So
if he wants to take the best parts of the
DCEU and throw it into his universe, his sandbox, and
by all means, go for it. But I would like
him to kind of give the give his stuff more
of like a fresh face, which you know he did.
Henry Cavill got the boot favor of David corn Sweat
Black Adam got the boot in favor of everything else,
so he's definitely cleaning. Are you fucking kidding me? Oh yeah,
watching us talk about this, So I think I do
think them using her, I mean again, to each his own.
If they want to, then that's their prerogative. They can
do it. But I would prefer to see someone new
in the role because she did great, you know, and
pass the Buck. That being said, yeah, they got the
multiversal stuff now with Peacemaker, and that's something that's probably
my biggest hang up is like, well, this Peacemaker is
kind of like it's it's tapped into the old DCEU,
but then it's starting off in the new you know,
the new era of DC and whatnot. I get the
multiversal stuff is supposed to explain that and kind of
cover their butt on that kind of narrative a little bit,
all that kind of dynamic, and it's whatever. I can
get on board with it, it's fine, but I'm not
necessarily like super super big fan of that kind of setup,
which makes me biased because when Marvel does that, oh
I fucking love it. So there's my true colors at
the end of the day though, Yes, And then the
end of the day, I think, like I said that,
you just if they bring her back, I'm sure they'll
do a good job and then I'll end up liking it.
Either way, it'll be fine. But I would not be
opposed to them giving that character to someone else, because
if you bring back her, then are you gonna you're
obviously bringing back a different joker. You're not going to
bring back Jared Letto, Yeah, or Joaque in Phoenix, because
I think that has been officially killed.
Speaker 3: So he's six feet under.
Speaker 1: He's six feet under. The only joker that's really left
untapped is what is his name? Very Keyo? Yeah, from
The Batman Child. Yeah, so maybe Gun wants to line
him up and then you have a movie with him
and Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn making out and doing stuff together.
Who knows what. Yeah, it's an interesting rumor nonetheless for sure.
So next though, for Gun, there's been a lot of
interesting things that's kind of been popping up about them.
I saw a comment about Gun wanted to get things
underway for like another Superman project and whatnot. But the
thing that we're gonna be talking about is super Family. Now,
what do you know about Superfamily because I've not wasn't
too familiar with it until they start talking about in
the Discord GiB Discord, and then I was like, Okay,
so it's like the the next gen kind of thing
going at it.
Speaker 2: Uh, I mean nothing more than what I would have
like assumed it, being like Superman, Supergirl, just the super
fam Like those are the only real two haunchows that
I think of when it comes to that, but I'm
sure I'm missing quite a few.
Speaker 3: Do you have like a roster? I can pull it
up also.
Speaker 1: So the leader I have is Superman, and then you
have super Boy con L Connor Kent. Then you have
the Eradicator and.
Speaker 3: Con L L con L.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a genetic clone of Superman created on the
orders of Lex Luthor. Okay, we've seen clones, Yeah we did,
we did. And you have John Henry Iron Steel and
Supergirl Karra Steel. Like Shaq Steel, John Henry Iron's Steel.
Speaker 3: That's Shack.
Speaker 2: That's got to be Shack like, not that version, but
like that character.
Speaker 3: I'm sure that's the same character.
Speaker 1: Where does sha Where does Shack come into play?
Speaker 3: Here? The movie is called Steel? We we we retro it?
Speaker 1: Didn't we we retroed movie?
Speaker 3: Or? Am I tripping major balls right now?
Speaker 1: Steal is it with nineteen ninety seven?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Detall, it's the Shack movie.
Speaker 1: There you go, steal DC Oh, so Shack plays yeah,
nineteen ninety seven. I was thinking, how the fuck is
Shack Steel?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 1: We didn't and if we did, I was not a
part of it. I don't remember.
Speaker 2: We definitely cover this in some way shape or for me,
it was a watch along.
Speaker 1: I can't remember, but Travis, if you're listening, confirmed, he'll.
Speaker 2: He'll, he'll remember, because I wouldn't have hosts otherwise. I
feel like I wouldn't have put this on. But I digress.
Speaker 3: Thank god.
Speaker 1: He looks so, he looks so like uncomfortable in this poster.
Have you seen are you looking at it? I'm gonna
pull it up.
Speaker 2: I've seen the movie, so yes, I know exactly what
you're talking about this image.
Speaker 1: Yeah, heroes don't come any bigger. God damn.
Speaker 3: Not a good movie, not a good movie whatsoever.
Speaker 1: No, it doesn't look like it doesn't because I am,
because I am, so Yeah, Well there you go.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So Steele is his comic book form looks a lot cooler,
a lot cooler. He's got like a big Superman ass
on his chest, and he's got a red cape and
everything like that. He looks absolutely terrifying. So yeah, those
are four members, it says Enemies, Cyborg, Superman, allies. They
got the Justice League. That's a good ally to have.
Uh yeah, that's the super Family, it seems God.
Speaker 3: It says.
Speaker 2: Jimmy Olsen is a key member in here. I did
not love our Jimmy Wilson that we got Superfamily.
Speaker 1: Jimmy Olsen is a key member. Yeah he's not on
my list. What the heck?
Speaker 2: That's like an major AI telling me that's what's probably
Oh okay, okay, Falla's see.
Speaker 1: Yeah, take it with a grain of salt.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, take with the green of salt. That is not
pitch perfect.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think there's potential here. I think that
it's it's again. Yeah, James Gunn I feel like excels
at doing these big group movies and I've not I know,
he's done other throw of other superhero films, sorry, films
that are not superhero movies, other films, and there's a
lot of them that I've yet to see, so I
can't fully speak to it. If there are a lot
of them basically have like one or two protagonists and
it's a much smaller kind of crowd. But from what
I've seen with this superhero stuff, they're all big team projects,
and I think that he does a great job at
kind of making sure, hey, I'm not falling off the
wagon a little bit. I can stay on top of
these different character arcs and I'm able to keep tabs
on everything and kind of just jump in on the
moving train ride and just follow it right to the
end of the movie. And I think that's great. So
I don't think it's at a character for him to
kind of dive into another team movie like this that
isn't Justice League.
Speaker 3: Really.
Speaker 1: I think Justice League is something he wants to kind
of keep at bay for a little bit, hence when
you got whatever the team was in Superman and then
maybe if he's doing the Super Family next or whatever.
But is there anything else you want to add to
the Superfamily or do you want to talk about that
villain possibility?
Speaker 2: My only like I guess holdback that I would have
on the Super Family concept on like if it's not
just one big movie and we're gonna be getting multiple projects,
Like there's already the Supergirl uh one announced that.
Speaker 3: We know of?
Speaker 2: Is like how different is their move set and power set?
And like is that going to be something that's just
kind of like a lot of super Like projects in
a row, Like does that kind of get boring if
we have very similar move sets of just like an
Invincible Person Kryptonites, you know that's the that's the one
caveat that they can't really get around that. That would
be my only kind of hold back. But I did
end up really enjoying Superman. It was a perfect movie,
but I don't know it was. It was a fun
enough dive into the part of me hiccups hit me
the universe there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you make a good point. I mean,
how many times can you do a clone really of
our main head hon show? Like, I just feel like
he can get kind of repetitive. But again, if he's
like a little like a younger clone version of him
or something like that, then maybe we're not done. Well. No,
I think we're pretty done with the clone that was
in Superman of David corn Sweat. I mean he knocked
him out into like the ether in between world's glitch
flowing pool river things out into another dark hole or something,
so that fucker is never coming back at least yet.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But anyways, the possible villain here is Brainiac. Now, my
experience with the Brainiac is next to nothing, except for
the fact that I know he's a super intelligent android
cyborg like creature from the planet Kolu, I believe, and
he's obsessed with collecting all the knowledge that he can
in the known universe. I'm not sure exactly how evil
he is and whatnot, but it seems like he is
a very very prominent DC villain, so I'd be excited
to see him pop up in here. And I think,
if I remember correctly having conversations with Travis, people have
wanted to see Brainiac pop into the big screen for
quite some time here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's got an awesome name. Anytime you
have someone of like a super intelligent cross with like
some sort of technology infuse, like I feel like that's
just a Okay, he's gonna be He's gonna be a
pretty powerful badass it I've I don't think I have
any experience with this character, like maybe if I Yeah,
I don't think I have any experience actually at all,
But just the concept of someone it's like super genius,
like that techno infuse makes me think of, oh my gosh,
what was his name from X Men ninety seven? He
was like our big villain who mister Sinister was working for.
Speaker 3: He was Oh, he had a stupid name. I don't
like his name.
Speaker 2: His name feel like it's like like Ethan or something.
No disrespect Ethan out there listening but it's just not
a name I would have expected. But anyways, that's the
type of character that I kind of think of and
really really like that villain. So I do like the
potential of what it is. It would make sense for
this being like a powerful combatant to these super powerful characters.
And I mean, if, like the fans are really been
wanting that character, there has to be, you know, some
solid reasons for it. So I'm pretty excited for it,
even though I don't have any skin in the game
when it comes to that character.
Speaker 3: Did you find it? Yeah, I'll do.
Speaker 1: I honestly I did not look I I stopped with Ethan.
I thought, yeah, I'm just gonna refer to as Ethan
from now on.
Speaker 3: It's Bastion. That's his name.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, right, yeah, the Almighty Bash. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Still don't like the name.
Speaker 1: Cool now, I guess there. This probably goes hand in
hand with what Travis was telling me, actually, with people
kind of wanting to see brainiact, but him appearing in
some concept art with Superman, Supergirl and Crypto and the
Superman Special features kind of stuff like that. So they're
definitely toying with the idea, and I think they want
to get him out there, So it's it's probably only
a matter of time finding the right kind of IP
to make it happen. IP No, I guess right, right
character to throw him in with. But yeah, they've been
popping off though, and it seems like their latest untitled
movie is slated for a twenty twenty seven release in June.
Who knows what that could be because when is The
Batman Part two coming out?
Speaker 2: Too?
Speaker 3: Really just lots like it just got pinned two.
Speaker 1: Years October first, twenty twenty seven.
Speaker 2: Yeah, October twenty twenty seven. God, it feels so long.
Speaker 1: Is that the official frickin' day by one year or two?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, so it seems like that is the official day. Yeah.
They keep changing the date and moving the goalposts on that,
so it's hard to keep track. Yeah, but anyways, looks
like there again we're still on the DC track record
right here, We've got Henchman DC film. Now, I was
supposed to have like a Joker and Harley kind of
theme to it, where it's being pitched by Zach Kraiger.
So basically, you have a low level henchman in the
Gotham crime world who gains notoriety after managing to incapacitate
Batman through the stroke of luck. So you would have
Batman appearing very minorly and briefly in the movie. But
then you have Harley Quinn, a Joker there basically attached
to this project as well. So again, whether or not
this Marvel Robbie remains to be seen, but it seems like, Okay,
they're definitely eyeballing. Who's going to be Joker and Harley
Quinn and this if this movie does take off, what
do you think about it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I need a little bit more substance here.
I think I am down to follow follow some villains,
but just like the idea of like a low level henchman,
I don't know, I'm not so against it. I think
I'm of two minds where on one hand, like I
hope this just doesn't make Batman look like a fucking idiot,
like it's just going down the stairs, slips on a
banana peel, concusses himself, you know, and like this is
the start of the project for you. You have this,
this this villain that dismantled Batman.
Speaker 3: Like would you say that way? Like I I.
Speaker 2: Definitely don't want that, but I don't know if it's
done clever and fun, like, is this gonna be more
of a comedy. It's just going to be dark and gritty.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I need I need more than what's
just pitched here. But uh, what if I told.
Speaker 1: You it being Zach Kraiger, so Barbarian weapons, you know
that's the director, that's the guy. Yeah, being pitched by
Zach Kreiger, So he's the one behind those other films.
Speaker 3: I'm more interested knowing that that's the name attached to it.
Speaker 1: And Miss March, I can't forget that two thousand and nine.
Speaker 2: Oh man, I remember liking that movie the day. It
probably doesn't hold up, but I remember liking it. That's
actually tangent. Have you ever seen that movie?
Speaker 1: I have, Miss March.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, do you remember the character Horsetick dot Mpeg
that's a very specific that's Craig Robinson's character. He's like
this pimp, like he always just talks about how like
he just hooks up with all these like Playboy girls
or whatever, and that it's.
Speaker 3: Review that he like does not have a penis.
Speaker 2: In the movie, and they like show it and it's
just like this, like this thing with like two straws
sticking out.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's probably such a low tier.
Speaker 2: Movie, but that will just forever be ingrained in my
Horsetick dot mpeg just a funny name. That's like his
rapper name, I think, And I love Craig Robinson, so yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It definitely boosts the interest level, not necessarily the hype level,
you know. Untitled movie slated for twenty twenty seven June.
I'm I'm only gonna be thinking about The Batman when
it comes to that year. I think, as long as
nothing keeps getting moved on that one, hopefully not.
Speaker 3: What about you? Are you hyped? Are you excited? Zach
Craiger just came off a weapons review.
Speaker 1: I mean, anything this guy does, it has my full attention,
and I'd be really really excited to see I We're
gonna be talking about the Resident Evil thing later the
film Roober apart, but him helming a project with Joker
and Harley and just this up and comer henchman guy
who wants to just kind of make a name for
himself and rise up the ranks of the crime world
of Gotham City. Absolutely, I think there's gonna be so
much cool stuff that could be coming out of a
movie like that with a director like that. What Zach
is doing with his films, and again just the two
main ones Barbarian and Weapons everyone's talking about is he
has such an interesting way of taking these cinematic shots
and really delivering on the tense, the tension of these moments.
I think it's just fantastic. I can't wait to see
if something does come to Fruistion at DC with him
doing something like this, because it would be a very
dark project, and I think he is great at tackling
dark storylines and dark narratives but also giving them a
good bit of a comedic twist. And that's something I
really liked about Weapons, is there are moments where you
know it is serious and whatnot, but he implements these great,
like skit level comedic moments, And I think that's the
kind of stuff you want with with Joker, where it's
very serious and it's very freaky and traumatizing, but he's
got this weird comedic beat to it, and I think
a director like Zach could definitely nail it. So yeah,
oh well, let's do you have anything else you want
to add to the DC Trainer. Should we mosey on?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 3: Is that it? Yeah? I got nothing else to add on.
Not s cool?
Speaker 1: All right, So well we're gonna jump to our last
a break and we're gonna get back into some film stuff.
Speaker 3: So we'll be right.
Speaker 1: Back and we are back, all right. So we're getting
into the film rumors point of this show, and there's
some juicy ones here. So to start us off, we're
going to talk about two Star Trek films in the works.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: Are you a big fan of Star Trek?
Speaker 3: You know, I probably should be because my name is Kirk.
You know.
Speaker 2: People like to call me Captain Kirk sometimes my day
to day. I tried watching the sixties version back in
the day when it was on Netflix. I got a
few episodes in and I was able to enjoy like
the filmmaking aspect of it, like I thought, just like
the practical sets it being like from the sixties, like damn,
like for their time, like this is this would have
been crazy to just be watching this. This is pre
Star Wars, right, Star Wars would have been in the seventies,
So I was able to enjoy it in that aspect.
I don't think I really peaked on Star Trek until
I got to like the jj Abrams movies.
Speaker 3: Now I haven't even seen all of those ones.
Speaker 2: I think the last one I would have seen was
The Dark What was it called, Dark World, Dark Dimension,
Dark Side.
Speaker 3: Of the Moon God?
Speaker 1: You have Into Darkness?
Speaker 3: Into Darkness? Which is the second one? Right? Yes, so
that would have been the last one. Is that the
last one?
Speaker 1: Or the last one is Star Trek Beyond?
Speaker 2: Okay, I haven't seen that one, but I really like
the first one.
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 2: I also just liked Chris Pine. I don't know if
he's charismatic in that role, and it was just just
a fun adventure. I haven't revisited those, so curious if
they if they hold up to today's standards, at least
for myself. But no, not really. It's kind of been
a blind spot for me. Not as much of a
blind spot as like Stargate is. I really don't know
much about that series at all. I know it's a
favorite of yours, but yeah, it was one of those
shows where like I remember going over like I don't
know my uncle's house or something, and he was just
binge watching like Star Trek, and I'm like, man, this
show is just so fucking boring. But no disrespect to
any Star Trek fans out there. I know you are
out there, but I was just a youngin and I
was not vibin with what that show was. But I'm
sure there's some good sauce in there. What news do
you have for me Star Trek related.
Speaker 1: Well, it seems like they're going to be doing one
of these films with Captain Kirk, the classic crew and
all that kind of stuff, and then the other would
be new characters that would be from Andre. Uh director
Toby Haynes.
Speaker 3: M hmm, his name's Andre, Toby Haynes.
Speaker 1: No, Andre was this project that I'm going to google
because I don't fully understand. I always written in the
notes this say is with you characters from Andre director
Toby Haynes.
Speaker 3: So Andre, I don't know Andre.
Speaker 1: When I google it, it says Andrea is a French
and Portuguese origin name Andre film nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 3: I don't see, you know.
Speaker 2: I might have should have looked that up afterwards, but
I did not see that in there. And then here
last part would have been JJ Abrams producing both projects. Yeah,
I don't know how I feel about that because I
don't have a lot of skin in the game, Like
I'm not nostalgic for one or the other. Of course,
like Captain Kirk just comes to mind when I think
of Star.
Speaker 1: Trek and Or and Or director.
Speaker 2: Fucking Travis Or they're shitty notes. I'm just kidding, Travis.
But I appreciate all your notes you give us, but
I did not realize the same director. That's pretty cool
because that is my that is my top tier, that's
like my mount rushmore of Star Wars projects. I would say,
is and Or in general, and you like that show Andre.
It's like a fucking biopic of Andre the Giant or
something like. I don't know what that would be, but okay,
that actually gets me more intrigued by this. So I
am glad that it was misspelled, because you know you
had me in the first half. I'm like, eh, I
don't know, don't specially no nostalgia. I don't really care.
Speaker 3: But then just having that pairing and the fact that
I did at least enjoy like the JJ.
Speaker 2: Movie or two, that I fucking Zoe Seldana isn't that
is she?
Speaker 5: She is?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Lieutenant her? Oh here, I think I can never really
say her name right.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I I am interested. Actually, I I'm I like,
I think this is something where more details helps or
hinders it greatly. Like I was one that I think
you and Travis asked me in a private chat of
like what like you know we're gonna be seeing the
new Tron movie and I'm like, fuck now, man, Like
I I don't care about Tron. I didn't even see them,
Like the was it Brian Cranston? Was he in the
other one? Or am I thinking of Power Rangers? I
always get those two Power Rangers? Okay, there was like
a new ish Tron movie though that came out right
like in our lifetime, like maybe ten years ago. Okay,
Like I seen the old Trons. Those were like blowing
my mind as a kid, like watching those on VHS,
but did not care about the like the new version,
and then hearing about the new one, I'm like, I
don't fucking care. I'm not a nine inch nails listener,
Like there's just nothing getting there. Seeing that trailer though
on the big screen, oh my god, I'm Juice and
I'm there.
Speaker 3: I'm so excited for that movies.
Speaker 2: So this is very much the same avenue at the
end of the day, I'm a visual guy. If it
looks gorgeous, good soundtrack or whatever, it might be just
good visuals. Like I'm Jared want to be there in
the what Jared Lettle fan?
Speaker 3: Why would I be a Jared Little fan?
Speaker 1: He's in Tron Neutron movie.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's like every villain like Agent Smith. I
forgot about that. Okay, I'm there for for Jared Lettle.
I guess. I guess I'm just gonna see him die
a loog on screen.
Speaker 2: You know they're popping off on on the Lettos. I
also don't think I'm like a massive Jared Little hater
by any means.
Speaker 3: I just don't love some of the most.
Speaker 1: Recent Yeah you're not You're not.
Speaker 3: Thanks, thanks for that. So yeah, I don't know. I
was kind of mumbling there, but what about you?
Speaker 1: I mean, I, yeah, I'm not a big Jared Little
hater either, but I'm excited for this. I really really am.
I become more of a late bloomer in the Star
Trek kind of fandom. I went back and watched Next
Next Generation and really really liked the adventures with John
the Bocard and every single kind of that.
Speaker 3: The Patrick Stewart.
Speaker 1: Wo, that's Patrick Starkin. Yeah, that must have some seasons
to it. Is that a Danteine's It's got a few seasons.
I can't remember. It's been a while since I got
into it, but it's got a few seasons to it,
and it's just a good time. I really really like it. It
gives me those good Stargate kind of vibes. But for sure,
that's what I like to go and Rewatch. I did
try to watch the original original Star Trek and some
of it's, like you said, it's it's ahead of the time.
It is dated though it's very dated, so I'm not
really there for it. But the newer stuff by JJ
I really like that first Star Trek film. I really
love Into Darkness that that's one of my favorite movie
scenes of all time, which just it's like fucking top
tier chef's kiss. And then Beyond was okay. There were
some really really good moments in there, but as large
scale as it was, it still felt pretty claustrophobic. I mean,
the whole movie pretty much takes places outside of the Enterprise.
You don't have anything in the enterprise in there, which
is kind of lame. I think some of my favorite
things are them just trying to you know, part of
the ship, part of the crew, keep that thing afloat, and.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, serving up sentences. That's what Kirk's doing. Part
your liar, you'll spend it on the Enterprise. I forgot
you added that. Oh my god, that's yeah.
Speaker 1: I think I think we definitely gotta let's get some
more stuff out. And Paramount's been popping off. They just
did a Star Trek movie called Section thirty one, which
I have not watched. And then they have a new
Star Trek show or a season of it like Brave
Brave New Worlds or something like that.
Speaker 3: So that sounds weird.
Speaker 1: Just there's lots of stuff. There's there's spearheading the all
those those projects. So I'm excited. I'm very much excited.
But anything else you want to add Star Trek related.
Speaker 3: I am curious how.
Speaker 2: Like the fans of the Star Trek universes specifically there
he is said that word a lot.
Speaker 3: Today.
Speaker 2: It's going to be enjoying not just the remake of
the like Captain Kirk, because I'm sure there were some
hardcore fans that really hated the Crisp Pine version, or
maybe some that thought it was a really good version,
but like just with the new version, like the new crew,
and I think that one is probably easier to do
because there's not like the expectations of matching and the
certain what makes the characters themselves, not just with Captain Kirk,
but the rest of the crew. So yeah, I think
I'm interested in what the general Star Trek fans are feeling.
Speaker 1: Cool right on? All right, our next one is and
this is very coincidental too, new film in the World
war Z universe, and it seems like this is a
pretty big priority for Paramount. And funny enough, back in
the day after the first one I dropped, I think
they were working really hard to get that sequel into
production and it almost came about, but it fell to
the curb and wasn't able to get its feet off
the ground, unfortunately. But I was just playing a World
war Z aftermath. I just booted up because it's on
games Pass. I boot it up and I played The
Daylight cross.
Speaker 3: I have that game too, and my dad was also
cooking on that game. He has it on PC. I
don't know if it's crushed.
Speaker 1: I know if it's crossed. It I have to look
but yeah, so then you know, I fucking love that game,
and it's just when the hordes are coming, it's just
it's so satisfying and like freaky when they're just crazy
piling over each other. It's it's it's still got a
pretty active community because I just hopped in and played
some of the campaign story missions and it's it's it's good.
It's got like a Left for Dead vibe mixed with yeah,
like a The Division kind of or like a Ghost
Recon kind of vibe. But yeah, it's it's a great game.
So funny that this pop up. That movie, the first
one with Brad Pitt, just kind of always lingers in
the back of my mind. There's just multiple sequences in
that film that just really make me antsy and uncomfortable,
and I just I wouldn't want to be alive in
that world. I just I don't feel good about it.
Speaker 2: I still haven't seen it. What, Yeah, I'm still it's
been a blind spot for me. I feel like there's
some juicy zombie movies that I've never seen, Like, you know,
we did our retro so so I Donna the Dead
zombieland of course, but like trained to Boussan, Like, I've
always heard that one's amazing.
Speaker 1: And you've never seen that one. That's like the peak,
like it's up there for zombie films that just brought
in off you mentioned Fresh Wave.
Speaker 2: There's some good Korean ones that like, not just that one, right,
there's a there's a handful of.
Speaker 1: There's a handful they do. Yeah, over over in the East,
you know, east of Canada. Those folks over there, they're
making some.
Speaker 2: The West, depending on how that's true, it's probably closer
if you go west, but.
Speaker 1: They're they're on another level when it comes to zombies,
just the actors and their movements and just the storytelling.
And Netflix has a lot of good projects too that
that have been created from our friends in the East
of the West for different zombie projects.
Speaker 2: So some south in there north if you go all
the way. Yeah, no, I I've dabbled in the video
game like Super briefly, but I did like that and
just just the idea of like the fast zombies that
are just like ants or they're just piling on top
of each other and like making fucking human bridges, and
it's just a it's like the most terrifying version of
zombies I think, you know, like there's the Dead Rising
ones like that video game where youre going them all.
They're just kind of wandering about. There's special types, but
for the most part, they're just mindless wandering around. But
that version where they're like sprinters, like, yeah, fuck me, nope,
I'm I'm I'm taking the I'm taking the ease way out,
I think in the in that universe. But yeah, So
getting back to our topic of there potentially being a
new film in the in in that universe, would you
want to see like a prequel a sequel? Since I
haven't seen the movie, I don't know if they like
cover like the breakout of that event or is it
just like cliff notes, no spoilers, but like is it
is it something that you see day one?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not going to give you any spoilers.
Speaker 3: I know there's zombies in the movie, so you can
say there.
Speaker 1: Are zombies, there's werewolves and vampires. Oh, Kate Beckinsale, Oh
fuck yeah. Popping up with Brad Pitt, there's I would
like to see a There's a lot of ground that's
covered in this movie. And when I say prequel, I
don't need to see necessarily like them leading up to
like the day of but something where it's like close
to when it started. I I don't want to see
something in the future where it's like, oh my god,
a termatoor salvation, where they're already handling the situation and
they're dealing with it living in this post apocalyptic world.
I don't want that scenario. I want another perspective where
it's at near the start of everything, you know, bbe
people are being evacuated, and that's something that I really like.
There is a show, what was it called Oh my God, Ah,
Oh my God. It was called Black Summer, and this
was a two season thing on Netflix and it was
so fucking depressing, but it was such a good, terrifying
zombie show and it just kind of shows the early
days of the zombie apocalypse where you have strangers kind
of coming together. I highly recommend it. It's just it's
eerie and it really shows the dark, shitty side of
humanity with a couple positive beats in there too, but
not many. I would like to see that in this world.
I think that would be really really cool.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 6: Yeah uh yeah, moving on, unless you have for theything
else know, for the comment, Okay, we're gonna be touching
down on the Transformer's note here.
Speaker 1: Holy shit, Michael Bay Transformers. Never thought, oh he's back,
he's back. Did you hear the news about all these
Transformers things coming?
Speaker 3: No? I don't know anything about this, so lay it
on me, son.
Speaker 1: So we have Michael Bay coming back to do a
Transformers movie, and if I remember correctly, so they're doing
a Transformers G I Joe crossover. They're doing another.
Speaker 2: Isn't it like, wasn't it supposed to already happen like
after the Primal movie? Wasn't it is that where they
made that.
Speaker 1: After Rise of the Beasts? Yeah, they set it up
big time, so we're supposed to be getting that. Then
we're getting a live action Michael Bay Transformers movie, and
then I believe we're getting another animated one. So THO
is like the three right now. So I'm there for it.
I'm totally there for the idea of that. Again, Michael
Bay tackling the story. I don't know. Well, I'm curious,
is he going to drop in and give us his
true Transformer six film. I feel like right now we're
in an era where, hey, you're gonna get Pirates six. Hey,
you're gonna get Transformer six. And it's just cool to
kind of think we're getting these sixth sixth offs here.
But I mean the Transformers five to the last Night
that Michael Bay won, the last one that he did,
it ended on a massive cliffhanger and it was opened
up for Unicron to come into play, and then Rise
the Beasts introduced Unicron, so they've kind of already tapped
into that. I don't think you can really bring Unicron back.
So is that a character. It's a character. It's a
planet eating Transformers Galactus level.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, So we'll have to see what he's really going
to be doing on which story he's going to be
going down, if he wants to do his own, or
if he's going to be continuing off where Rise the
Beast is kind of at right now. But they're very
they're very different characters. When you look at the ones
that the Transformers that are established in this new era
versus the Bay Ones. The ones in this new era,
I feel like they're more dark and grittier and optimist.
Prime just hates humans. We're in the Bay Ones. Optis
Prime is like protect humans at all. I'll die for humans,
like just pep talker, like, fuck yeah, let's god. I
usually like a little inside fact most not most of
the time, but quite often I'll just I'll play Optimist
Prime quotes where he's just you know, he's just talking,
and it's like you just want to die for him.
It's just so fucking motivational.
Speaker 3: Ah.
Speaker 1: And just even the dark stuff too, when he just
like reams humanity out, when humanity is like, you need
to go away because the Decepticons are here because of you,
and Optis Prime is like, well, if we go, we'll
respect your wishes. But what if we go.
Speaker 3: And you are wrong?
Speaker 1: It's like, oh fuck, I hope he says a little
bit differently than he does I paraphrase, and they don't go,
and he says it better than I. Peter Cullen voice, Oh, man,
can't even picture what this chap looks like, Like obviously
I can here get an image. My name is Optimist Prime.
That's a fucking terrible voice. I'll pull him up.
Speaker 3: I'll pull a voice actor.
Speaker 1: Fuck Canadian mister Peter of Colin, Montreal, Montreal, Monreal. Yeah,
and he's he's been Optimist Prime since I mean since
it was Prime. Really, I mean he's done in all
the films, all the old like yeah, the eighties movie
and whatnot, Like he's been there through the fucking mill
and I think, oh yeah, that Picklet's Big Adventure, Winnie
the Pooh. Who the fuck is he voicing in Winnie
the Pooh.
Speaker 2: Optimus Prime. There's a crazy crossover. What if I and
they come never Never would slaughter you? He plays Eore
in Winnie the Pooh. Holy shit, that's crazy, very different
type of gravitas that ere has versus or sorry vice versa.
Speaker 3: Yeah wow.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, so uh, I mean what about you? You
love Transformers?
Speaker 2: I think I loved Transformers at a point in time.
I didn't get around to seeing Transformers one, like the
kind of Origin animation video movie. It was a movie, right,
and I tapered off, like I don't even know which
was the last movie I saw. I do kind of
want to go through and just watch them again, because
like that first Transformers movie, I fucking love that movie,
Like that came out like the perfect time for me.
It's funny, like how much this kind of just memed
on it too, like you always see the uh, I
don't know when I leave the party without saying goodbye
to anyone, and then it just like starts playing the
fucking soundtrack that's like directed by Michael Bay.
Speaker 3: Like you seeing those clips.
Speaker 2: I absolutely loved the soundtrack at the time, like it
was when I was playing sports, and those were just
like get hyped music songs, you know, like like that
just came out of like a perfect era for me.
And the fact that I haven't seen like even the
last ones of that generation of them, I think that
speaks to my overall excitement of them. I did start
Rise of the Beast, but I think I like put
it on and fell asleep and just never went back
to it. I saw Bumblebee, which I don't know if
that's positive or negative, but I ended up I had
a good time with that movie. Terrible Villain John Cena
was awful. I don't think it was performance, definitely just writing.
Speaker 3: The character was.
Speaker 2: Still not a memorable by any means. But I don't know,
Like good trailer again speaks to the Tron thing. Like
I thought I was done with Tron. I saw the
trailer and I really want to see that, So I'm
definitely not gonna just say fuck.
Speaker 3: No right now.
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is gonna mean we're gonna
have to do a Transformers retro or something along the
lines of that.
Speaker 1: But uh, Travis will never agreed to it. Though he
would never.
Speaker 3: Agree with it, But that might just be a you
and me thing. But I think I would be open
to it.
Speaker 1: Oh fuck, yeah, we'd have a good time. That'd be great. Yeah,
we can skip the one movie. We can just do
the live You watch it, but you do not like it? No,
I haven't watched it yet. Uh so when I watch
it and like it, then maybe I'll toss it back
into the retro. That's fair.
Speaker 3: That's fair. Yeah, uh cool?
Speaker 1: Anything else on Transformers? Are you good to go?
Speaker 2: I'm very interested in seeing how it would do numbers
wise of getting like Michael Bailey, because did he do
like even when they switched to like Mark Wahlberg, like,
was he still a part of those he was?
Speaker 3: He was?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Because they Yeah, The Last Night made six hundred
and five million worldwide and its budget was like two
hundred and sixty million, So that's hole off. Paramount lost
over a hundred million with that one.
Speaker 3: Jeez, that's crazy. That's I wonder why they stopped.
Speaker 2: Uh, yeah, okay, two thousand and seven was the first one.
Speaker 1: So the one before last Night, Age of Extinction made
one point one billion. Uh so you can see why. Yeah, yeah,
I remember seeing Last Night. I went and saw Last Night,
and then I took I went took I think I
saw three times in theaters.
Speaker 3: I went on, not surprised.
Speaker 1: Took two girls, two different girls on dates, not the
same time, but I took them to that movie same night.
Speaker 3: No, no, no.
Speaker 1: Separate nights.
Speaker 3: What a player. My god, it's unrevel this one.
Speaker 1: That movie is like almost three fucking hours. And I
saw once on my own and then yeah, twice two
other times with two different ladies.
Speaker 3: That is so funny. That is crazy. I didn't know that,
Laura aspect about you a lot.
Speaker 1: Of fucking optimist prime. Yeah, I was eating that.
Speaker 2: Shut up, just fully engage in the movie, not paying
to your date at all.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there you go. Detail.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a it's a power move. It is gonna
cert your dominance. Cool. Well, yeah, I got nothing else
on Transformers.
Speaker 3: Did it work out with any of the ladies? They
hate the fucking movie. Three hours of this.
Speaker 1: I think the movie killed it for sure. But then yeah,
I met my wife. It took my wife to see.
Speaker 3: Uh uh.
Speaker 1: Fucking it chapter one and you know, there we go.
So you're gonna take a girl on a date, take
her to see it and not Transformers.
Speaker 2: I think the first movie. I think the first movie
Shane I went and saw together. I might be wrong
on this, but I'm any sure it was fantastic Beasts
and Where to Find Them like the first Wizarding World one.
Speaker 3: And I don't really.
Speaker 2: Remember any of the movie, and I didn't keep going
down that series.
Speaker 1: But guys just making out the whole time date, Yeah, attention.
Speaker 3: To the movie. That was what she was working there too,
So that was different movie.
Speaker 2: Eric.
Speaker 1: You didn't have to pay for that movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, I'm still not paying. That was a
good investment, although you.
Speaker 3: Know, there you go.
Speaker 1: Uh cool. Well, next on the docket, Shrek five has
been delayed. I mean, it is what it is. I
got nothing to add to it.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: It was in that like crazy December slot, wasn't it,
with like all those millions of other movies.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and it does pushed back.
Speaker 1: Yes, because I think it was.
Speaker 3: Is it out of the year now?
Speaker 1: I think it was twenty twenty six, but like.
Speaker 3: It was December.
Speaker 1: I thought, uh so, Shrek five was originally slated oh
previously except for release on July first, twenty twenty six,
and it was delay two December twenty third, twenty twenty six.
But oh it was delayed again because I'm pretty sure
it was bumped to Yeah, June thirtieth, twenty twenty seven.
So it's been bumped a couple of times.
Speaker 3: Like a whole year from the original. Yes, yes, I'll
probably be there when it comes out, so yeah, I'll
be there.
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll do a retro. Who knows, just do retros
for everything. Lets stress travi us.
Speaker 3: Out bely.
Speaker 1: The one. There's so many, there's so many jokes that
just they live rent free in my head. But like
the one where it's like tonight on Nights, I got
Bronco going south, Pepper sprayam or they just pepper his eyes. Yeah,
Fuckrek two anymore.
Speaker 3: Shrek two is superior than Shrek one. Oh it is?
It is? Okay, I don't know. I don't know if
it was like unanimous.
Speaker 2: Decision, but Shane, I I think it was like a
year ago. We were going through them ended up tapering
off because I just really did not like the last one.
I think I was tapering off on the second last one,
but the actual last one kind of lost me. But
number two man like, first one fucking solid movie, so good, like,
but that second one is just something special, like.
Speaker 3: They Prince and oh my god, yeah Nights.
Speaker 1: I can't believe they put a a no J joke
in that movie.
Speaker 3: I don't even remember that. And I want the white.
Speaker 1: That's the white Bronco, Oh my god, because like because donkeys,
so they're like, we've got a white white Bronco going south,
the South.
Speaker 3: Bout they were going for it. Wow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy, crazy, big.
Speaker 2: Big expectations for the new one. I think it's obviously
gonna have a different animation than what the original had
because it's so much later on.
Speaker 3: But I mean put some.
Speaker 2: Boots had that though the last Wish and I absolutely
adored that movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, that movie just slaves. The movie slaves. That's
got riz.
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, working on my and this cast before you
keep going with more of those.
Speaker 3: Terminals no cap, no cap bust. I'm learning some of them.
I'm working with some youngins.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 1: Top gun three. This is also another priority to get
paramount as it should be. I'm down. I want to
see more, Like what's going on here? Because that last
one was just fucking phenomenal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one blew me away. I I was very
excited for it, and it was just so much better.
I think that was like, I think that might have
been the first time I saw a movie alone in
theaters and I fucking had a great time. I was
vibe with that one, and I saw multiple times in
theater and I've seen it multiple times since and I
still absolutely love that movie.
Speaker 3: Give me more. I'm down. I'm there.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, next new World War Z film in the works.
Just kidding. We already talked about it, but it was
in our notes twice.
Speaker 3: So there you go.
Speaker 1: Before we get into our last Zach news here with
the Residue Will film, where let's just throw in Mike's
question here, what director and or writer would you like
to see take control of the next big screen star
trek film.
Speaker 3: Over to me? I did pull a name earlier. Who
was it?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yes, the great David Leach, director of Bullet, train Fall, Guy, Tomic, Blonde, Deadpool,
Two Hobs and Shaw, John Wick, the Original. Yeah, I
don't know it just seems like a good blending of
comedy and action. Yeah no, I don't really have much
more to add that. I couldn't think of a writer
per se. I'm usually pretty bad at plucking those ones
out of the woodworks. But it just seems like a good,
good pairing there. I think, like my heart of heart
picks and like, you know, it's a fantasy world. I
could pick whoever I want. It would probably be like
a Denise Villeneuve or Nolan. We know denis busy, uh
with with of course next Dune project, and then it
was the big thing he just got cast in that
we thought.
Speaker 3: He wouldn't be James Bond. James Bond, Yeah exactly so.
Speaker 2: But like again, that's got awesome action in it and
with Dune, just like the sci fi elements, the world building.
Definitely would love to see him be a part of that.
But uh, and then Nolan is just like one of
the goats, you know, you got to like anything he's
a part of, it's going to be glorious and beautiful.
And but David Leech, I think is also super solid,
great like practical stunts in his in his movies, which
I don't know a lot about star Trek. But I
remember from the JJ films there being some good action
sequences and you know, little little peppers of comedy in
there also. And Bullet Train was one of the funniest
theater experience I ever had. It was a good, good
belly laughing time.
Speaker 1: And yeah, yeah, I would honestly go for a Joseph
Kazinski f one director. I really love that movie. It
was fantastic, and I think there was a right combination
of like seriousness drama and then little up beat moments
that were comedic and lighthearted and just soulful. And again
the cinematography was fantastic, the scenes and just the close
ups and just the action and with the vehicles and whatnot.
It just makes me think, Okay, we could see a
movie here with this director leading the charge and give
us something that's you know, got the ships and everything
in space, and then give us that crew dynamic. You know,
this movie is about these two guys on the same
team that are just at each other's throats kind of,
and their their their pit crew is just not really
rallied together, and so you have all this drama. Let's
do that on a on a enterprise, you know, have
this new guy in the chair and the crew just
kind of be all kind of at each other's throats
a little bit, not working as a team, and then
they get they rallied together in the end and they
become a crew or something like that. I don't know.
There's different areas there, and I think Joseph Kazinski could
definitely definitely do it, So I'm I'm very much on
board for that his other projects that he has done,
because I was kind of curious here, so let me
just pull it up and take a look, because he Oblivion.
Speaker 3: Tron Legacy actually, which is kind of hilarious.
Speaker 1: That's funny. Yeah, I think Oblivion was relatively positive.
Speaker 3: I liked it for a good chunk of the movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Spiderhead really didn't like that movie, but that's okay.
Speaker 1: I ever saw that.
Speaker 3: Absolutely fucking love that movie.
Speaker 1: This is weird. He's got the Gears of War Mad
World launch trailer director Joseph Kazinski literally says the launch
trailer for Gears of War two thousand and six, with
the song mad World covered by Gary Jewles, director Joseph Kazinski.
Speaker 3: That must have been a good trailer. It was.
Speaker 1: That's one of the all time, like top tier video
game trailers. Oh it's so fucking good, but weird, weird,
but I guess it's your portfolio.
Speaker 3: So there you go.
Speaker 1: All right, our last topic of this cast that we're
gonna bounce out of here, Zach Kreeger coming back. His
details have been unveiled for the Resident Evil film. Now,
we love a good Resident Evil movie. I've been a
huge fan of the original six with Mila, Holy fucking
Mila just popping off on those movies. And then we
got the Welcome to Ratkin City one with the actress
who played Barbosa's daughter, and that movie kind of bombed,
but I definitely give them credit for the freakiness of
that movie because it definitely had some scene for seeing
shot from the video game. And then we have the
series that we reviewed on Netflix, the one season show
that just fucking bombed and that was it. But it
was a good review.
Speaker 3: Go check the review was it? Was it just Resident Evil?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: I think so, I'm looking at Upflix. Yeah, I'm looking
at the movies. Was a Evil season one?
Speaker 3: There you go?
Speaker 1: What year did it come out? Twenty twenty two? Totally
smoke three years ago. Yeah, so that's definitely not getting
a second season.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, during the late great Lance Reddick Rest in Peace,
it was fantastic.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeahs Evil is an interesting one for me. I think
it's been around, like it's a very.
Speaker 3: What's the word for it.
Speaker 2: This pop culture like the right reference, Like yeah, just
like it's got impact there on, not just because of
the video game but also the TV or sorry because
in the movie Storry Mela, I think that was like
just that perfect era of like we're getting Underworld, We're
getting these like like Blade, like these dark, like gritty
horror action movies starting usually you know, a badass heroine.
In this case, it was fantastic. Mila Djovovic. Yeah, no,
I so like it was a weird way to say it,
but I Resen Evil has been around like me my
whole life, even though I haven't been like the biggestrisen
Evil fan, like either my cousin or someone that I
knew had like the Resien Evil video game. I never
like like the camera angles of that game, but uh,
it was just yeah, terrifying at the time on the
PS one graphics when those dogs part of me are
chasing you in in the mansion, terrifying and then the
movies like terrify me also, but like I also just
love them. I think I still think the first like
I don't know, maybe well Off do a retro, but
I still think the first one is my favorite, just
because it's the most memorable. Love the idea of just
like you know, you have like an underground layer that
just goes down, like layers and layers and layers and
layers and layers and layers and layers and like that.
Just I don't know, it's a certain Jenna said quad
trope that just gets me. I think when we were
watching Alien Earth recently, there's some things that remind me
of that first Risen Evil movie, and yeah, no, I'm
definitely always open to getty more of that content.
Speaker 3: It's also cool how that series hasn't.
Speaker 2: Just like died off like it seems like it's been
relevant consistently like my whole life, where there's been different versions,
whether it's the movies, the video games, just keep coming
out and they keep like evolving on the series. So
I am always although it's not my favorite, I am
always kind of interested and want to check out whatever
comes out the series. Although it is disappointed, I needed
it was a fun one to review with you guys.
Great meme moment in the finale that that lived on.
I think the image is now gone, but it lives
on in our memory. And I am interested in this.
What was the note you said? Not tied to any
game stories? Like, I guess it kind of will have
to though, Like if they have a Raccoon City, technically
that would be attached to the game series.
Speaker 3: Right like the games though? Right?
Speaker 2: Okay, like similar, I guess to Like how Resident Evil
bio Hazard was, Like, that doesn't really feel like a
Resident Evil game, right, It's very different, right, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I I'm open to it.
Speaker 2: I love Austin Abrams, that was the name I think
of the the casting character. I apologize if you already
went through all this, but I'm just kind of reminding myself,
go for it. Yeah, no, I I I'm interested.
Speaker 3: I'm interested. I'll check it out.
Speaker 1: So Austin Abrams, he pops off in weapons, he's in there.
Speaker 3: Oh really?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, And so that's kind of good. It gets
his foot in the door working with Zach, right, it
makes sense to bring him into this project. He's fantastic
in that movie.
Speaker 2: Like fantastic and everything I've seen him in Euphoria, He's
he was the major standout in that one season. And
then he was in a very mid movie on Netflix
starring Camilla Mendez, which is one of the leads from Riverdale.
And I think, what's Milaku or not Milak Thurman's daughter?
Speaker 3: What's her name? Maya Hawk? I think is her name.
Speaker 2: She was the other one in there, if I'm remembering correctly,
And Austin Abrams is kind of like the villain air
quotes of it, and he's just like going, hey, I
think he's like the best part of about that movie.
Speaker 3: Did you find it? Or did you look Maya Hawk?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, what's that? What's it called? Was the
movie for which oh I thought you were looking at
the movie?
Speaker 1: Sorry, I was on the Maya Hawk? Okay, parent lineage.
Speaker 3: Here, Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 2: You know Austin as is fantastic and everything I've seen
him in and uh, I thought I was in a
drought from but Appe's and weapons, So another reason for
me to go see that now.
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, I low he did not realize that Uma
Thurman was the mother of Maya Hawk. I just I
just knew Ethan Hawk and so that's just you know
who the father is, Ethan Ethan Hawk. Are they still married?
Speaker 3: I don't think so. I think they're separated.
Speaker 1: Nineteen ninety eight to two thousand and five.
Speaker 3: Mm. Darn. They didn't even make any transformers. They could
have gone on a date night.
Speaker 1: They got Levon Hawk and Clementine Jane Hawk.
Speaker 3: Interesting hawks.
Speaker 1: They got a whole family of birds.
Speaker 3: Look at that, they got a whole nest. A little cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, I'm I'm super stoked for this. Again, I'm
pretty terrible when it comes to the Resident Evil games.
When it comes to the movies, Oh my god. Yeah,
I've been there for all of them, and I've watched
those Melijovovich Jovovic ones so many freaking times. Holy smokes,
I've just lost track. I remember taking my dad seeing
it opening night in the theaters, one of the later ones,
and just being there, and I remember doing a we
have a review for Resident Evil the Final Chapter on
our GBP as I did a review for that one.
So it's it's been it's been around for a very
very long time. And that first one, going into the
hive of under Ratcoon City was just it's freaky claustrophobic
and everything with the zombies and just in that elevator
scene that was like one of the first scenes, but
an elevator just terrified me.
Speaker 2: That struck the fear of God into me on elevators
and just the idea of it just dropping with your
head getting chopped off, or that room with the laser
beams and the guys like jumping over it and then
it just fucking yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh so many memorable scenes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, just good stuff, good stuff. Definitely one worth
the retro to go through all those. But yeah, the
idea here that Austin Abrams, a laid back organ courier
sit out in a late night delivery to Raccoon City
Enteral Hospital and he takes a snowy mountain road. Uh,
he accidentally hits a strange woman with his car. She survives,
but something's very wrong. He's trying to help, but then
he stumbles into this full on outbreak involving these horrifying
tentacle based mutations, the monstrosities and stuff that's been bioengineered,
and it's very much gonna have like a rock'm Sockham
Evil Dead two style. I love everything that I'm hearing
this sounds great. It sounds really really good, and I'm
a sucker for that kind of stuff when it comes
to zombies, where it's just kind of like the opener
of what's going down with the beginning stages of an apocalypse.
So I'm really really stoked. And like I said at
the start of this cast, like Zach Kraeger, he's got
my full attention. Whatever he's doing, I'm there for it.
And if he nails this, I'd love to see him
just take off and do a whole variety of other
different horror projects because he's definitely found his his niche,
she's found his his full swing.
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: Cool, All right, well I think that that doesn't I
think we can and this chapter and uh yeah, we
can go on home unless you have anything else.
Speaker 1: You want to fuck Oh my god, it's.
Speaker 3: Our close out game.
Speaker 1: Sorry to spooky, it's right, what can freaks me out?
Where I was playing Dead by Daylight not too long
ago too, and fucking hearing the.
Speaker 3: Bayou by you.
Speaker 2: I can't believe how many delcs that game has had,
Like I just see some clips on like I recognize
the gameplay, but these characters are so and then I
look at the I'm like, they have like a fucking
Risen Evil like crossover. They've had the fucking Nicholas Cage
Vampire one, and like even when I was playing, there
was a lot of like DLC contents and stuff.
Speaker 1: It's uh, oh yeah, they got the Zeno, they got Chucky,
they got Zeno one there and the Xeno more.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, let's get it is cross play.
Speaker 1: I think it is.
Speaker 2: I used to play it on PC, you know, not
to be one of those guys, but I played it
like early Access beta, like.
Speaker 3: I was one of the ogs guys. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think I even got like the supporter pack back then.
But now it's on like everything, and it's on a
PlayStation catalog game. So I think I just have it
on PlayStation, which I'd probably be more inclined to play
on there because you never know what's going to happen
with my computer.
Speaker 3: Some of these days.
Speaker 1: I think it is cross playing. I'd be down to
play with you. I remember when we were doing those streams,
the Sunday streams, and that one time you just got
that clutch win.
Speaker 2: You were just going to be somewhere. That was like
my my highlight, my peak. Just fooling the huntress or
whoever was at me. It was probably the Bayou Bayou
song I think.
Speaker 1: So yeah, oh yeah, some good stuff. Cool. Well, ladies
and gentlemen, thank you for tuning into this episode of
geek First podcast, your weekly geek We will be back
with the Dexter review next or you can tune in
next week for another news content this episode then. But
until then, we'll see you in the search bar. So
