Speaker 1: Oh no, oh no, starting an episode. No water, geez Louise,
Oh great.
Speaker 2: Nowhere to be found.
Speaker 1: Where did I leave this water?
Speaker 2: Hi?
Speaker 1: Car?
Speaker 2: Oh wait, let's see if Emily got some water? Hang on?
Oh a little, a little, a little water in there. Hello,
ladies and gentlemen, as you see, I'm out of sorts.
Welcome to Travis told you let me get the charging
corn there. March ninth, on a Monday, Hello everybody. I
hope you are all doing well. I'm going over for
the most part. As I put on the Patreon on
the schedule, I'm not going to be alive this week
because lots of stuff. Today I'm off work early because
I get to go see Lowen's Kung Fu ceremony. She's
getting a gold stripe. She's very excited. Touched my heart
day cheap dad moment where it always happens. That's like
right after school and I work until like past all
the time. And there were one time I was supposed
to go and then I think I can't remember. One
of the babies were sick, so I had to stay back.
But then you know we were coming today, right, and well,
of course, then I set aside. Luckily all works things good,
So very excited for that. So there's a lot of
stuff this week that whether it's the day job or
because especially with my day job, I'm sure some people
might have this with their job. Near the end of
tax season and year end, it picks up, it gets
a lot of kind of hectic. Even a geek first
gets a little hectic with our tax and stuff. But
between that, between life stuff, as far as that's going on,
family birthday. This weekend, finally got some filming going on
in me Kirkland Tyler. It's gonna be good time. I
guess it's spoiler a little bit of something happening, but yeah,
we get the next two weeks where I'm filming. Next
two weekends are packed so which I don't love, like
I love doing it, but the actual two weekends in
a row, it's just the way it worked out because
in April, I think there's some time that again I'm
traveling busy, so just busy time. So that's why this
week I did not know, Like today, I didn't know
have any idea because I'm leaving work early day would
I be able to take lunch and do this. So
and the rest of me too, is just kind of
all over the place. So I don't think anything live
this week. You never know. If something changes and it
just works that way, then perfect, I will go live.
And then, as I said, this week, now I think
I'm going to I'm I'm gonna just promise you two episodes.
For sure, I might do three because of course the
past couple of weeks there was very little news, so
there's not much for me to talk. But other than
I try to do evergreen stuff, right, I gotta get
back to making a topic. But of course this week
there's like that Lord of the Rings hunt for Golm
casting news, and there's the like it's rumors, I'll just guess,
I'll say, And there's that Pixar thing that I really
want to get it to like Pete doctor No. I
get what he's saying, try and make money. But just
like in my opinion, just super like spineless comments like well,
we're gonna get back to making movies for everybody, like
the call, We'll get there, right. So I have some
news pieces that could go longer. So what my idea
is today all we're doing is covering the march Man's
Run round one and just the box office from the
Sunday because there's not much to tackle than just say
Travis told you about you know, but not a big story,
but still writing was on the fucking wall with a bride, right,
So we're gonna do that, and then Wednesday, I'm doing
the March Madness Round two or so round yeah two
results and then the brackets and then Oscar predictions as well.
So if I have time, my plan is either the
Tuesday or the Thursday to do kind of like a
new Centric one because there's some stuff I geld to
catch up on. And there's no Weekly Geek this week
because we're recording a lot of Patreon content in advance
because they brought I said, it's again very busy for
us just life and podcasting wise, so you might get
three tracks. Has told you look out for that. That
is my plan because then on the Monday, give me
Oscar recap. As I said, unfortunately I can't do the
Oscars castes or the patrons, but if you want to
join the discord down below, Taylor did a huge as
I realized, didn't even move my exercise ball. It's right there. Cool.
Taylor did a huge revamp on the discord. So I
made things a lot more clear, and we're making or
we're taking feedback as well, so it's things you don't
like or want to add less No, but yeah, there's
new channels in there, so go down below. That is
the best place to be as far as geek fers online.
We're in there as the host, a bunch of listeners
in there. It's always a good time. Multiple channels talking movies, wrestling, football,
Oscars and that's where my segue is. If you're an Oscars,
we do do an Oscar poll every year, So until Sunday,
submit your winners and then it's just just for credibility.
Nothing else but submit your winners in there and we'll
have some fun. But yeah, next year I plan to
bring that back because just this year just didn't line
up because I had a lot of game reviews, had
a lot of different casts, had and family stuff. So yeah,
it's just been busy, which is good, but there's been
I'm I've said this before, I'm excited. The weakest spring break.
I think all I have is like The Daredevil and
maybe one other thing I can't remember what it is,
but say there's one week where I'm off casting for
at least a week, which I haven't done really in
a bit. So I'm just needing a break from just everything.
Because they'll be out of school, I'll be off work
casting that week. There'll be no trash child you. Maybe
I'll probably pre record some stuff. Maybe i'll do I'll
do some evergreen stuff. But yeah, I definitely need a
break the train. The train is going a lot and
it's gonna go off the tracks if I don't need
at if I don't get a little break here. But
I try my mess, you know. So let's go over
these results and then we'll do the box office here.
So let me pull this up. Do do do? So
there was some interesting results here. So actually, I'll say
the voting was interesting. The results, I think, for the
most part, are what I thought they were. But for
a while there was something where there was one where
it was like a fifty to fifty on i'll just
say Barry Key and Christian Bale was very surprised by
that because I definite thought would Dan the bail way. Now,
as I've said before, I did not vote on this.
I'll only vote if there is a tie breaker, which
there might be, because since I looked at this, there
is one more response, so I don't know and have
to look and see. But yeah, so if you don't know,
I'm doing March Madness for actors, doesn't matter the gender.
I picked thirty two actors. I went over that last
episode and you can get the whole nomination project, a
process of why put them in there, and it's for
the past ten years. It's to decide the current day.
Who's the best current actor right now? You know, not
of all time. That's too hard for me because I
still got a lot of game tape. I gotta watch
a lot of great people. But right now, it's okay,
who's the best actor today? And we're taking just their
past ten years, ten and a half years as far
as their resume, right So what I'm gonna do, I'm
gonna read out the results and the brackets. Now I
I feel again because Dylan Kirka went over This was
very fun and the Weekly Geek they went over, even
though you know the winners, I would just go and
listen back to their breakdown of it because it was
fun to hear people that had no idea what the
list was. They said a couple of times, as I said,
I swear on everything holy I this is completely randomized
because I didn't have time to do that and also
just was like I didn't want to pick and have
any bias. So that's why I would not have had
Emma Stone and am Driver face off round one. Like
if Travis is making that list, that'd be like down
the line. So what I'm gonna do? And same thing
with the brackets. Now we're just gonna go from winter
winter versus the next. I'm not gonna randomize it every
time because we got the brackets there, so yeah, we'll
read over them. If you want to vote on these,
join Patreon. This is the round one results. There's gonna
be five rounds. I think there isn't total if you
want to. If you want to vote, join Patreon and
at any tier, even the free tier, you can go
on there. Oh wait no, no, it's it's still the
pay tier, but the free tier. You got lots of
other good stuff on there. Free tier. I accepted some
submissions on there, but for the pay tier. Let me
move this mouse. My mouse is dangerously actually, should I
make sure I got the right mic? I just record
this whole I did, damn it. Okay, we're back. Sorry,
this happened again because detail you said this, you're like, oh,
something wrong. I got the room. I don't know why
it's been streamy, right, man. It goes through these times
where it's like sometimes working completely and then find it
revert suit and my mic is all plugged in like
it has the lights on. It's all go. So I
apologize for that first seven minutes. But now we're here
and I got the clear audity for the good stuff, right,
the good hood SPUs. So yeah, we'll go over this
and then I'll quickly reround. We read the brackets for
the next round, and this will go live. Let's see
Monday too. I'll probably make it live like right away today,
even though the episodes are. I'll probably post the audio
and then I'll post the polls as fast as I
can because obviously it's a smaller amount of voting for
these next rounds. All of them are about every two
days now. But that's the way it works in the March, men,
it's like to keep it having the result in March,
and plus I need to have it kind of done
by like I said, when I go my spring break there,
my break is the twenty second, So yeah, that's when
it's gonna be the finals, that's gonna be your ever
green episode. I'm gonna record that and put that out there. So, oh,
I guess I do have another cast. Damn it, you know,
just just busy, just busy times. But all right, So
the first round we had thirty two actors and we
had Michael Fastveender versus Viola Davis and your winner with
sixty I guess I'll write this down now because I
can read off the brackets here, uh to twere let's
see actor? Do I have a say? Actors? I do
have a saved one perfect okay, okay, one okay with
hum oh my god, come on here, okay, with sixty
one percent of the vote getting when Michael Fastbender, I'm
not surprised. I think that, especially when you looked at Viola.
I think it's a couple of things of I think
they both have a spotty decade. They've both had some
heights and they both had some lows. But I think
Michael Fastbenner's had a bit more consistency on some of
the bigger projects, where Viola I feel like the past
few years, like even right now, Fastbender had black Bag,
he had the agency feels like he's kind of a
little push right now. I feel like Viola hasn't done
anything like great great on screen, like in a bit
right now that she's ever bad but like the present movie,
you know, let me just quickly look at Viola Davis.
I'm not gonna do this for everyone because I don't
have the time for that. But let me see. Uh
oh good, I got to search the history of the
home like the past few years. Uh, let's see up.
Cut's see creature Commandos comes from Panda. Yeah, like air
and she's like small, but she's gonna like I guess
h the woman King was twenty twenty two though, so
I take that back now she's that's the last four years.
So I'm not sure. I guess people maybe put into
the uh maybe it's a feeling, maybe it's a vibe.
I don't know how people vote. Maybe I'll talk to
people all on the next after nine or anything like that.
But yeah, sixty one percent of the vote goes to
Michael Fassbender. So there you go. Uh. The Dune face
off Rebecca Ferguson versus Timothy Chalamee. Uh, and this one
isn't the biggest blowout but it is a big one,
with eighty four percent going to Timothy shall May over
Rebecca Ferguson. I thought it would be a little bit closer,
to be honest, I really did. But I feel like
there's a lot of people like myself or or a
lot of people like Emily that when I was talking
to her about this pool, I was telling all the
people and I said Rebecca first and said, oh yeah,
like yeah, it's here, and she's good and stuff, But like,
I don't think she's like great, great like you guys do.
And that's the thing where maybe you have watched all
the products she's done, or maybe it just just better right,
Because at the same time, I guess I should say
that I agree with the fast been one and I
agree with shaw Man. I think it's a bit more
of range. I think we've seen him in quite a
few more leading man roles. So you get to have
a juice here part right for the most time, sometimes
you're not, but you get more screen time, you get
the more time to show off for breck of first
and has like doctor Sleep great, but she's a co lead,
right mission possible co lead even Biggie Blinders that I
watched this weekend, like the third or fourth co lead, right,
So that's why I want to watch Silo. But I
just think in those performances she is great and even
in Dune right Coali, but gives a versatility. But I
get why Timmy gets a win and I would go
there as well. All right, Number three, Adam Driver versus
Emma Stone and your winner with seventy six percent, Emma
fucking Stone. You guys know how I feel. She would
be my pick to win this whole thing. I don't
know if she's got to see if the patrons and
whatnot agree with me. That was very tough. I didn't
want Am Driver out and one I thought he should
still be, even with some questionable choices the past little bit.
Even with those, to me, he's still like in that
top tier at least, i'll say top ten actor. I
still think he could win a Cabin Award at any
time given the right project. But you know, I digress.
Let me just turn that off. Sorry, my ringer was on,
so just in case I get ain't calls, let's see here.
So God damn, a live action Tinkerbell series in the
works of Disney plus an, I mean it's sure live action,
all right. William Dafoe versus Oscar Isaac and your winner.
William Dafoe was sixty one percent, And I guess I
didn't say, yeah, I would agree with Stone, office I said,
I think she's the best world right now, and with
Dafoe I would as well. The Fae for me ranks
pretty high. I think you'd also make the same argument
with Mstone. He could be the best actor war Like,
it's a one for one. I think the body of
work in the ten years, even just the ten years
is incredible, the range. So yeah, Defoe, it was close though,
but yeah, Defote. I agreed that one as well. Here
comes with slaughtering right now. Hugh Jackman versus Victoria Patretti.
Victoria Patretti with the big seven percent versus Hugh Jackman
ninety two. I know write anything is down, but I
guess I'll go back into a later. Yeah, it makes
sense to me. That was a big uphill battle. I
think with her. If you've not seen the Haunting series
and you either or all of them, I think right
away you're like, oh, who's this, Nah, it's definitely Hugh.
I get that he's still done some great stuff in
his era, like Logan Dipp Wolveren. I liked The Sun
even though that was controvers some movie like he's done great.
I have watched sung some Blue, but here he's good
in that. He's consistently great, right. I don't think Hugh
Jackman's ever bad. Bad education. I think that's what was
with that education. He's never bad, even if the movie's lacking,
He's never bad. So he is per se up there.
When I was making the nominations, I had him on
the bubble. But I still consider him like a top
ten or. I still think he's a guy that could
win an Oscar any day given the right script. I
think he is a powerhouse actor that might not be
as versatile as some people on here, but can be
stronger than others. So, Sore, Victoria, maybe you'll peer the
next one. This is so, this is the first one
that I and do I agree or disagree. I agree
with that because I think Victoria is great, But you Jackman,
I just put over a lot of other people. So,
but here comes the first one that I disagree with.
Michael B. Jordan versus Walking Phoenix very close fifty three
to forty six percent. Your winner The Man who is
an OSCAR nominated film Comic Film Michael B. Jordan fifty
three percent with the win. I don't mean you're ow
and Austin was close, right, So there's other people as
well too, So it's not like it wasn't an easy thing.
But for me, I give the edge to Walking just
because I think there's a bit more versatility. Joker bo
is a raid Eddington. I feel like there's one more,
like Napoleon, kind of like that the movie's not great,
but like I'd say, he's good. There. I think there's
one more. But I think my opinion or my point
is that I just feel there could be some sinners
hype as well. But I just feel like Walking Phoenix's highs,
his high values are higher than Michael B. Jordan's. You know,
maybe his lows. Maybe people are just so hurt by
joke or too still, but I just I don't know.
I that one I don't agree with. I just think
that there's certain things that Walking Phoenix can do that
Michael B. Jordan can't do now. At the same time,
that goes for a lot of actors on the list,
like I just mentioned Hugh Jackman and Victoria. I don't
know if they could be doing well. You know, Victoria
might be able to do some form of Joker, right,
but walking Phoenix is he's so good at appearing on
screen and feeling completely more even Victoria's right, like there's
some similarities between certain characters. With him, he can feel
like a completely different guy. So, patrons, this is the
first one I disagree with you. But yeah, so Michael B.
Jordan moving through, congrats hopefully you hopefully well yeah, hopefully
for you. You when they Oscar this week, and maybe
win a Golden Geeks as well too, same thing people
for Golden Geese. So I'm gonna drop up the Best
Actors Round two later today, the Monday, March night. You
have about two more days. At midnight, Golden Geeks's lock
you vote after that doesn't matter. I gotta prep the show.
I gotta make the notes there, gonna do everything it
is prepped done because I like to get stats and
stuff and look at other years. So midnight, at the
second the clock strikes twelve oh one, and it turns
and I'll say Pacific, I guess to be specific, Pacific
twelve oh one am on the Wednesday, or on Wednesday
it is lock, so go or sorry on the Thursday. Thursday, Eh,
we'll record that Thursday. Okay. Another close one which was
great here in Kirkland and Dylan he they were talking
about Maherscha Ley versus Matt's Middlson, which is around right now,
and they're going back and forth who they'd pick. And
when Dylan saw he had the same thing to me
when he said who was hamm was it called twenty fifteen?
That's ran the cuss. That's what made Mads get on
the list. I wonder how he would have felt if
I would have told him desk Stranding was there. But again,
another close one, just like the last one. Fifty three
point eight versus forty six point two percent. The winner
the man that is in a Marvel comic book film.
I guess this is his voice, Mahersha Ali is your winner?
Fifty three percent? Yeah, that one's for me, Like so far,
I could go, I disagree with those that is that
is the most coin flip one ever. I I'm glad
I didn't have to tie break that one because there's
a couple in here. I could easily go that one.
I really don't know. You could ask me any day
of the week. I think they're almost evenly matched. I
think Marshally probably just has a bit more stronger because
those auscars are like Moonlight and Green Book were mads Is.
You know, he's and he's done some stuff that maybe
people haven't seen, right, lots of the foreign stuff as well,
But that's very tough. This just makes me want to, like,
makes me want to see them in a movie together. So,
you know, good job patrons for not making me pick
on that I skipped one. Jennifer Lawrence versus Killian Murphy.
Maybe this because the back half of her career, Killian
Murphy gets the win. I was surprised by the percentage
here though, seventy six percent for killing twenty three percent
for Jennifer Lawrence. Maybe that's just because of and it's
completely fine for her to do right. She said she
could took a break because of kids, and then also
because everybody was the She said she felt like she's
being overexposed, and she felt like people be like, oh,
Jennifer Lawrence movie, so you have Jennifer Lawrence. So I
feel like in these past few years has taking a
step back and is starting to be in things and
come back where Killing Murphy has just been popping off
with stuff, right. Peaky Blinders. Also the movies out this week,
and I'll talk about the ben box office big thing Oppenheimer, right,
there's some other stuff in there, but oh quiet place.
And then even then, hopefully twenty twenty years later, three
feels like he's been building again, right, And for me,
I would pick Killian too, just for consistent because we
talked about before. I think some of those movies in
the earlier of the twenty tens of the like The
X Men, do hurt her a little bit. There's things
where I can I said, with Hugh Jackman, if there's
a bad movie, I can't point to Hugh Jackman have
bad performance. Maybe it's out there and let me know
WHI Jefformence. I'm not gonna say a bad performance, but
I could say you could point to some being like
a an okay performance right where Killian you can't right now.
So Killian gets that win right there, You're winner for
the next one. Christian Bale versus Barry Kyogan. Christian Bale
at sixty one percent, thirty eight percent for Barry. This
was for the first few days was live. It was
like locked at fifty and I was surprised. I was surprised.
I thought it would be more Bail. I would still
go over with Bail. I love Barry. I think he
could be that talent in the future that does that.
But yeah, I think I Bails to be is the goat.
If I had my brothers, I'd love it. I don't
care you guys, vote you guys. You guys got to
own personality. For me, it's like should be Bail versus Stone,
you know, in a sense as far as the finance finals.
But yeah, Bail to me is he's the goat, so
as far as how long he gets. Also, you can say,
like lots of his great performances are in the past,
Like not in the past. You're still happening, right, Like
even The Bride, which is reviewed in mixed lee and
didn't do well the box office people said him and
Jesse Buckley are great, right, So, but I think, like
his tippy top stuff, Bail is in that two American
psych American psychle alone should win him the fucking two
thousands man. American Psycho is an Academy Award winning performance.
You didn't get nominate, but like we know why like that,
that is something incredible. There is a reason why there
was a poor thing. It was like a two weeks
ago where they're having troubles getting actors for the remake
because there's a sense that they can't top Bail and
it's like, yeah, you can't, and that's why you gotta
do something different. And that's why me and I supposed
to talk about where I've said, like a pitch it
to do a woman Obviously that movie is a very
masculine book and very much on masculine themes. And the
thing is like, if you did that, you'd have to
change a lot. That's where my pitches change a lot.
Like that's what I think you have to do with
The American Psycho the movie. If you did a TV show,
I think you'd keep it mail be same and have
more time to experiment with stuff, or a mini series.
I'll say with a movie, I think it's too tough.
It's just one of those like we'll talk about like
mini previews for the news right. The rumor of who's
playing Ara going it sounds like there we talked about
this before the aer Goin is gonna recast runt for
gollm and we'll talk about who the actors, et cetera.
Plus I'm watching I can't his name is like Leo
Riddell or something. I'm watching Vladimir that show on Netflix
that he's in with Rachel Vai. So I'll have more
game tape when I do the newscast. My point is
I was talking about this with Emily and I just
it's to me, like the Snake. Well that's a bit different, right,
But here's the thing. You can't win either way. But
I go back to what I've said before where he
fledg Er and one of his last interviews said like
the reason accepted the Batman because when he like Joker
in Dark Knight, when him and Nolan were talking, He's like, hey,
I don't want to do what Jack did, Like, I
can't do that if that's what you're looking for, and
Nolman was like, no, I'm not looking for that at all.
I want to do something completely different. They talking bond
it great, right. So for me, that's the thing that
I think with what I was gonna say with the
Airgorn casting is I would not want to do the
Han solo on air ring thing where it's not you're
not playing Airgorn. You're playing a younger version of Egle
Morrison's Airgorn, which I think is gonna be very specific,
same thing as Han solo right now. Granted this is
the counter though for me where I was gonna say,
if it's a reboot remake, that's great. I feel the
same way about Snape. Not the race, I take that all.
I don't care about that. I think with Snape it's
very tough because with Vigo. With Vigo, I just feel
like he's not like a u An Alan Rickman or
Christopher Walking where he's like this distinct personality. But it's
just that's such an iconic performance and it's just there's
certain things he's done with it. And even then the
age thing, right, it's that thing of like I don't
think the age is gonna line up with Snape. I
think it's I've said that before where a lot of
people that have not read the books are gonna think
that Snape acts the way Alan Rickman does without not
knowing that that is Alan Rickman acting as Snape. You know,
you get what I mean. Like, I think a lot
of people and especially if you not see a bunch
of Alan Rickman stuff. They just think, Oh, snape sounds
like that and moves like that, looks like that. No,
that's a lot of Alan rickmanisms. Right, So that's one
which I would go, it's not a remakeer reboot. There
is exceptions the rule. That's one where as an age
I would to go, don't do this, don't do this role.
There's some you can't do. There are some you can't
like even then like like for example, right, they talked
about this on the newscast. Paul Bettany has Baltimore Ray
Fianes is great, but I don't think he's so REFINESI that, like,
you can't do a new edition of Almore. But okay,
that's okay. Snape as like Alan Rickman snape and it's
not gonna be Alan Rickman snap. But still the snape
was defined by Alan Rickman. It's gonna be very tough
to get that out of people's minds. Right. So I
don't know where we went, but uh, you know there's
a tangent for you. Okay, next one. Another one is
very close, Mark Qualley, Jacob LORDI the future of Hollywood
maybe uh fifty three percent to forty six percent, so
very close. The wind goes to Jacob ALORDI very close.
I wonder for the people because I don't have it
here because it's the drive people have voted for either one.
What would be the reasoning? I I definitely think if
Frankenstein doesn't come out, A LORDI doesn't win this and
maybe he's on the list, but uh not good for
good for Jacob. Are we gonna have two frankenstin face
off next up to see him? Uh? So here you
go the only poll and I would agree, let's see
so yeah, Christian, But I agree with A LORDI I
would agree. I don't know. That's a tough one. Hmmm.
I think I would agree with that again because I
feel A Lourie's had some bigger there's not been much.
But no, I was gonna say leading rule. I think
the proble like the few times he has letter being
in in a larger role. They've been better films where
you have Mark Quality who's been leading films but haven't
been the greatest reviewed and even Peel like driveway Dolls
hate her accent in that right, So and I didn't
but I got what you were saying. So but again,
very close. So it's not like a one defining thing.
But I think I would agree by like an inch,
like a small amount, that I would put a lordy
over quality, just just just a little bit. But that's yeah,
that's a that's a very tough one. So okay, let's
see here. So here we go. The only one we got,
the last few poles here, the only one that got
one hundred percent. I'm gonna say it in the second
I say, you know what it's gonna be, Uh, Florence
Pew versus Mikey Madson. I thought someone might throw some
lie to Mikey now when I go to the Florence
Pew route. Yes, hashtag pew Boy for life, right, we
created the pew Boys. We love Florence Pew. I think
with her it is the body of work, right, she
is much more varie as far as variety, but also
just things to pull from. I had no problem. I'm
sure there's lots of people in here that were like, oh,
why did you put Mike Ntts on here? I got
no problem at all. I think this is like a
future pick as well, where in five years from now,
if we will reading this list, Mike you be on
here again and again. She won the Oscar right, like,
and I don't think it's a disrespectful thing at all.
I just laughed last year at the Oscars. Or it
wasn't Mike went last year, right, No, it was in between.
It was some like awe, it was Golden Globes or
something where it's just like Jennifer Lawrence and she was
talking to like is it four or five six? Like
of the new actors that are upcoming, right, and all
around that age of Mikey, right, and they're all like
new or start out. But here's Mikey's in there already
with her fucking Academy award and she didn't have this
at all. No, it didn't look like she was annoyed
to be there. It's just like it was just like, oh, yeah,
she's not in this group at all, like she is
age wise, but she's so far leaps in ahead of
everyone here. It's just kind of fine. Like when I
watched Scream five, same thing, ACTI wise, and just in general,
it's like, wow, she just like did a huge like
skip a grade sort of thing. Right, So but I
get it. I would have went with Florence too, but
I understand. Let's see here, Okay, So Robert Passon versus
Margaret Robbie. This was one that was clocked at fifty
for a while too, But I didn't have a big
swing like Christian Bale and Barry because fifty three the
forty six again a very close one. Marra Robbie loses
to Robert pass and I, I don't know both Like
this is not like the walking Michael b one where
I got I'm walking for sure. This is another one
and I would not have wanted to break the tie.
I think you could make a case for them both.
So I guess I could say happy for patrons that
didn't make me. But I think it's like a wake
up one day, wake up another day. Oh it's Robert,
Oh it's Margo, like you know she was great and
more than heights just happened. And then you had the
drama which I saw the trailer for the Last Night
again with Pete Blinders, and it's like Passon's looking great too,
so and they both got range for still like you
got like Worthering Heights, Eitanya and Harley Quinn right and Barbie,
and then you got the Batman good times, which I
again sure in drama Tanant lighthouse. What did he do
makeey seventeen like, it's tough that that that's a really
tough one. I think because of a few more versatile roles,
I maybe would lean a bit to pass him, but
not felt good about it. So yeah, so there you go,
Rob Passentine the win there, uh sixty eight percent. For
this next matchup, which is Zindaia versus Coleman Domingo Zindia again,
the win there. Not surprised Coleman has as maybe roles,
but I think Coleman still deserved to be here. Maybe
he could have won a different poll if it was
a put a different way, But I like doing it
this way because it's just wild, right, this one I get.
I don't think people have the same affinity. But I
have no problem. I have no problem sean list because
like I said, it was my list to make Kate
Blanchett destroys La Lashana Lynch ninety seven percent. Personally, I
would go Lashawan Lynch actually for the like because there's
a few things that I know, Uh, even Kirklin and
Dylan were like, oh, like the stuff that kid's something
the last ten years. I don't know, but there's a
lot of stuff like Carol people don't talk about, right,
there's stuff in there for me. I yeah, I I
just so good to Lynch. I think there. I think
it's her versus till in how different she has been
in all those roles I talked about last episode, which
are incredible. But uh, yeah, I get it. Uh second
last year, Auntail Joy versus Sir Shay Ronan Uh sixty
nine for Aniotaylor Joy thirty percent for sure she. I
think that's just a case of I feel like Anya
has done more recent and more bigger IP stuff. And
I feel like there's even stuff for Surecia that I'm
not even watching right. So this is another like almost
tossing one I wouldn't find either way. I think I
would have leaned to Anna. I think I would have
use I think I'm saying Anya an A Taylor Joy. Yeah,
I I yeah, I think I would have. So it
is Aniotaya Jer. I screwed it up. Fuck, I do
this all the time. It is Aniontair Joy, and I
put Anna sorry on you. Uh. And finally this one
hurts Leover's Lapedo no longo. Uh. Leo wins eighty four
percent to Lapito's fifteen. I think LAPEDI I've many times
said she is the one of the best, if not
the best. There was a time I think she just
got paired with the Leo monster, who always gets some
great roles, right, so I completely understand why that happened.
But yeah, Leo takes to win there. I wish Lapeta
got made a little longer there, maybe in a different
bracket ranking could have. I think she deserves to be
in the top like eight or whatnot. But uh no,
not not today. Okay, and we're back. Sorry about that.
Goddamn Mike. I gotta reroute it. I screwed up for
the in person cast and changed everything. But I digress.
Give you in here because a short episode. I'm doing
the box office. We'll get some news and other stuff
in the future, but just do that just to round
this off. But that's why I planned to try to
do a third episode. The numbers is under maintenance. Great,
so we're gonna go to box office. Mojoe yeuck. I
don't like that. Okay, let's take a look here at
the weekend. Jesusse I, oh, I found my ball. It
was out of sight. May Olivia Robrigo, Stanley hell yeah, yeah,
I'm read juvenated. Now it's do this Okay, So Happer's
or opening up at can I get rid of this
fucking court here? Okay? Did I lose audio again? Let
me check? Okay, well again Hawpers opening up at forty
six million, which is pretty good. I think it's gonna
have a good little run there because I haven't seen it.
Me and the family are gonna see it during the
spring break, so I think a lot of people do that.
And then just right after spring breaking out Mario, which
I think maybe it's spring break in America. I could
be wrong. Maybe is that because we get ours in
the last two weekends or last two weeks of March,
then there's eight But even then it's easter, right, So
Mario's gonna fucking clean up. But like Happer says, what
I'm saying is it has a good amount of time
to be making money and still just producing. Well even
more was around like to jump to number four, go
six million, that's pretty good. Still Hoppers out right, I
think Hoppers. The stat was it's it's Pixar's best opening
a decade for a non sequel movie, so it will
definitely take that because what was the Ilio Ilio opening weekend.
And the reason when I say we'll take that twenty million,
so it doubled and then something elo that's great. The
reason I'll take that is because that's in the other news.
I want to talk about the next episode. This fucking
Pixar slate right toy Story five in a few months,
Incredibles three. They announced Coco two, which is like that
they announced Cold two months ago, but this just reafirma
it's happening, that's on you and the Monsters inc Three,
which is like, okay, I could see it, but like
we are definitely in that territory again. Of with Pete
doctors comments, which I thought we was just like just
kind of embarrassing, but I get it as a business
head why he's saying those things, but like just it
just felt spineless. And then well the sequels, I don't
want hoppers or even hes like I will see this.
I did not get to see this weekend because the
girl's still ski so we're gonna see this definitely. They've
been asked about definitely spring break, so they were gonna
get my money all fucking six five, my kids and whatnot.
Speaker 1: Not.
Speaker 2: The Twins honestly, but so they're gonna get my money.
But like that's I want this and hexts to do
better because we do need I don't want just a
sequel to every movie and a sequel every movie that
also doesn't need it. Right. So so we had Hoppers
forty six winning the weekend. There you going, like I said,
I think next week, in the week after up until Mario,
even around Mario can make some money. Ma that could
be a movie that when Mario sold out, it's like, well,
let's go to uh, let's go see Hoppers again or whatever, right,
and then the other people family parents that have nothing
to do with grandparents washing their kids, like, oh, I
have seen Hoppers? Did you like it? Yeah, okay, let's
go see it. Right. Scream seven, with a seventy two
percent draw cratered seventeen million, but it don't matter because
it's the second highest grossing Scream all time. That's why
these movies are very smart to keep the budget the
way it is. It had like what a forty five million,
it already made its budge. It may whatn't need to right,
as you said before, even if you listen, we have
no idea. I've tried to reaffirm this with the business
stuff and multiple stuff. We literally have no idea. We
just have guestimation of kind of a general idea. It works,
right because on that Joe Rogan podcasts been after that,
like usually movie has sometimes the movie has to I
can't remember if you said sometimes we usually but he's
talking in broad strokes of lots of times a movie
has to make four times it's budget back to be profitable, right,
So I don't know if that counts for every movie,
but that's why we've usually going you have to double
it and usually doubled then some, right, but at least
doubling it is the low grade of while we've at
least broken even right Scream last week, you know, budget
was forty five May ninety whatever million was in the
clear already. If it's just that right there now, I
think it's pasted one hundred and fifty, yeah, because Scream
five was one hundred and fifty. Don't know if it's
gonna get that two hundred. I did think it was
gonna or I thought it was. I did think I
did thought it was going to get there. Now I'm
not so sure because I don't think it'll have like
a good hold next week. I'm not saying it's gonna
be another seventy two, but next week it'll be like
under the ten, so somewhere between like h five to
nine somewhere there, like maybe they get hurt eke out
of ten, but obviously so international. So I don't it's
gonna do that, but I think it's still could end
up it's either to be the second most properle Scream
or the next why like and why for the drop.
That could just be it's a frontloaded franchise, like the
way MCU was getting right, where pe don't want to
spoil be spoiled and they go see it right away.
It opened on a good weekend as well, where there
wasn't too much competition, and also what about too right.
There could be times where my mom was like, oh,
who's want to see a new screen? Like we had my
uh Auntie's birthday this week, and like, oh, I want
go on see Scream seven. Then I was like, ah,
you don't need to. And that's where I feel like
you get a lot of that right where people guy
you don't need That's happened with Wicked right. I think
that there's a lot that you don't need to There's
people that were on the fence. So I think if
you get that, it does hurt it some time, not
all the time. But I think with screen seven it
will be a little bit of that. Uh So we
got that and look at the We'll get back to
this the Brian seven point two million. We'll get back
to this goat again. I talked about that making the money.
That's good. Worthering Heights, what's that at full? I think
it's about to cross or has crossed two hundred right
two thirteen? Hell yeah, that's great, Keep going, keep trucking along.
Want that do well for Emerald and the crew. Crime
one on one for a movie that bombed, which I
think it's still gonna bomb, right sixty five million? I
then Crime one to one had like a eighty million budget,
right ninety damn. And I want to see this. But again,
as I said before with the twins, in life, I
only usually have time to at most see one movie
of the week. And that's why last week I saw
people Blinders. Last night, I was planning on seeing them Bride,
but when I heard how mixed it was. Unfortunately, if
it's not for the podcast. I don't have time to
do like a mixed one, and there was no It
was so annoying. Sometimes they do double features, there's no
double features. One time I did the Frankstiin's Shelby want
to work out perfectly there, Frankenstein or sorry. With The
Bride on Thursday for my theater, it's closest to me
that I can get to on had a what was
it a Thursday at ten PM showing a late showing,
and then Peaky Blinder was only playing on the Friday
to the Tuesday for some reason, Netflix doesn't do Thursday
pre screens showings or whatever. Okay, cool, but so my
plan was to do like what I did with Franksin
and Shelby Oaks. But then when we swapped over on
the Thursday to at least a Sunday, the Bride didn't
have ten pm showings and the Peggy Blinder showings were
kind of like they never matched up. So at least
there's like ones later. If you have two movies and
both of late showings, you can try to figure that
out and work it out. And I feel like Frankenstein
did with The Bride, I didn't get any more ten
PM showings here where Peaky Blinders did so and none
of them worked up. So if it was already mixed
and it was already not working for me, I couldn't
go my way on just see one. I saw peep Blinders,
and uh do I regret it? I don't know, I
don't know. I guess I get my mini review. Hear
me and kirklar I think we're gonna give a spoil
review when it's oh Netflix, because he got sick so
he didn't get to see it. But it's tough because
I yeah, I will get in the full speech. I
enjoyed it. I think I'm somebody I always wanted to
watch it. I binge in two and a half weeks.
Loved it. Maybe would put in my top ten shows. Honestly,
I thought was fantastic, a very Traves coded show. And
I don't know if it's one of those situations where
they made a movie because it felt there was more storyteller.
People are unsatisfied the ending. I could get why if
some people might be unsatisfied with the ending, because I
think season six sounded like it was a bit more
of a not mixed but divisive season for me, it
was a perfect ending, So I guess it's like Stranger Things,
right where I really didn't have a problem with the
big themes in the Stranger Things and the big moments
Stranger Things ending. So I wasn't like wanting conform to
gate to be real because like, well, I don't need
a movie to like fix this or show or new season,
like I'm happy with what we got and with this,
so a Peggy Blinders, this was like not half. I
thought this was perfect. I thought they they had the
guts to do a very bold ending and it's not
like a crazy anything I've seen before, but any of
some shows might not go for I loved it, and
it the movie doesn't completely undo it, but it does
undo something. So it definitely was a lesser ending than me.
And at the end of it, just like you know what,
I don't know if this was needed. It also could
have maybe been another season instead of movie, because it
felt very rush at times, still very well made, very
well acted, some great scenes in there, some great moments,
So I think i'd probably like three point seventy five
four to five like seven points and five eight like
somewhere in there. I had to sit on it but
I really didn't like some of the choices. But it's
very well made. But honestly, we don't get the money
for that because Netflix doesn't report their their their earnings.
So there you go. But yeah, crime on on one again.
I movies i'd like to see. I don't have time
that sucks is not doing as well, but just makes
sense for those movies. Send helps still in there one
point six million, I can only imagine two one way
five and then Elvis in concert. There you go? What
I got here to hang on? One second? Let me just
check something. Oh I don't know, Oh, come back, let's see. Okay, okay, bride,
that's what I'm just gonna bring up. Nope, like for me,
no surprise, what am you gonna bring up? Here? Did
this cast a couple of weeks ago, and I did
very well, so thanks for people checking it out. I
put the twenty twenty six movies that I thought had
the biggest chance to bomb. I'll give you my ten
to one scary movie six. Luckily that trailer reaction has
been good, but I still thought there's a chance, right
Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, and again the bombing is based
on their production budget, right, because I have Supergirl next, right,
Supergirl could still make maybe three point fifty four hundred May, Oh,
it's not a bomb, but if it costs like two
hundred and two fifty, then it's like a bomber. I'll
say underperformed, right, but like in that sense of it's
not making this money back. Sorry, scary movie street Fighter,
Want o'callbat? Supergirl disclosure day, Project Hilt, Mary, that good
word of mouth is it's tracking better than I thought,
So that's good. It's still is a massive budget, but
it's tracking better than thought. So we'll see May's wrong
on that. Uh uh yeah. So five Project Hilt, Melior,
four Mandelor and Grogu, three Monsters and a new mons
Master of the Universe. Sorry, Monsters of the Universe number
two Coyote verzagt mean number one The Bride. So I
put myself aside of the film fan where Maine gillen
All wants to make a movie about the Bride, huge
hot new take on the Bride and Frankstin's mom, Bail
Jesse Buckley give her eighty million. Great, I'm all for that.
At the end of the day, what I watch and consume,
what I enjoy with me as a film TV fan whatever,
don't care what costs as long as it's great and
may well or they're falling someone's vision, great, go do
it now, somebody on this side that was always interested
in the box office, see how things do, not like
scoreboard mentality way, it's just to see like the trends
of what the movie goes are into nowadays, right, and
how that impacts the business, because that impacts the business greatly.
The fact that they let her have eighty million, eighty
million dollars on a movie. Now, I know there's like
Nosferatu and Sinners and even Kiera Motour did Frankenstein, right,
but these classic movie monsters are not always a given.
Even the Bride wouldn't say it's like a give. She's
not like Frankenstein's monster, right, It's still the Bride's still
like a spinoff character, a very popular character, but still
not the character. Right. So al right, it's a take,
and then it's a very different type of take for
the Bonnie and Clyde sort of thing. Reactions. We so
it started as rawdening around the mails and climate to fresh.
I think it just keeps from back and forth. So
it's interesting. I've seen the gamut of April. I've not
actually ready for a review, April. I gotta click on
your letter box, so I've been busy. But I saw
you like four point five. So let me actually look, April,
because I remember, like when you saw a cycle killer
that we were all excited for, and you to give
this a people don't know. Join the discord and you
can meet her. She's a patron producer for a long time. April.
We love me. Thank you very much. April Darkness. Always
appreciate support. She's a big horror person and she's always
said though of like she's still gonna write things critically,
but she has like a skew on horror stuff right
where most of times she's gonna great a bit more
fairly because that's her John, right, I feel like I'm
the same way, like comic movies, right, grew up with them.
I skew a bit and even horror to a sense.
I get with you, April on that sense. But so
the Brian John had put he was somewhere in the
middle of April and Clay Clay, I can't wait to
talk to him about this. Fucking walked out walked out
of the Brian and then April, you put the movie
is a lot complementary messy af honestly, Jesse and Oscar
for this one wild, unhinge performance. So there you go.
So I had seen at least for the four or
of five. I take it that she really enjoyed it,
and then Clay being walked out and then you know,
I be and he was somewhere in the middle, and
that is the whole Everything I've seen from this movie
is even reviewers I listen to podcasts, I know one
that loved it, the one that thought was okay, and
one that was like this was bad, like real bad,
and that's their opinions. I don't know. I will watch it.
I'd still love to try and see it and support it.
I don't know if I'm gonna get the chance that
sometimes I do get the chance, as if I like
just tired and I got nothing else to do, which
is rare, but if I've like done my daily task,
because I know I'm sounding a fucking loser, but I
wake up every day and I have things to do,
and I write all down and I gotta get them done. Uh,
and I'm behind on something, so I don't think that's
gonna happen. I would like to see it and support it. Uh,
even though I think it's den in the water. Now,
that's definitely not only was I think it an uphill battle.
Like I think even if it was a fucking critically
acclaimed movie, it was an uphill battle. There's just some
ips or some characters or some movies you go, eh,
that's only going to talk to a certain amount of people.
So when it's an uphill battle in concept, and then
the reviews from everybody are very mixed, that's even tougher. Right,
So seven million, and like, what's the worldwide? We didn't
have worldwide? I want to know what made it internationally?
Thirteen million? So about the same six point three? Yeah,
that's Oh that's tough. That's tough. I'm not surprised at all,
and I'm not even surprised by Sometimes It'll be like, oh,
I knew it was gonna be bombing on that bad
That's why I had the Bride number one. I just
I just saw this looks cool. I'm happy it exists,
But like, are people going to pay to see this?
And granted and kudos and warnbos were putting it out there.
But that's something and that's where we'll have to see now, right,
because this movie was supposed to go last year and
they delayed it. Warnerbos had this massive kickout the year
last year, right, but now you have this, you have
what was you a Supergirl? Which is a question mark
clay face which could even be a question mar Right,
let me see Warner brother Films twenty twenty six. Let
me see here. Listen, No, I don't need all those
and they have this by date Northern Heights. I think
this is I think this is it. Yeah, Okay, so
Worthern Heights did well, so good for warmbers there, Bride Dead,
they will kill you. I don't think that could be
a small budget, so they could be fine. But I
don't think that's gonna do well. I think that's way
too close to ready or not. They shouldn't delayed that
way the fuck out of there, like into October whatnot.
Lee Cronan is the mummy that could eat it. I'm
gonna say, I don't think the budget's gonna be too high,
but it could eat it. So we'll see. You're just
gonna be like fine. World Combat two. You could definitely
eat it. Animal Friends is gonna eat it. Supergirl could
eat it. Cut off want to so is Christian rig
Joan Hill Follos two Chiplins are cut off from their parents.
I mean to assume that's low budget, so we'll see
evil that burn usually should be a win. But then
putting it out, I just want to check July again
one more time, right for showing twenty twenty six, because
I know what they're trying to do, right, I think
it's kind of program right, Okay, So you have July
it's Minions and monsters Ka, you have in Washington, you
have Mowana The Odyssey, and then the week after the
O they burned inspier Man Brand New Day. And even
in June. What's in June? Is there any big horror
scaring me? With six? That's a parody Disclosure Day, which
I think is not gonna do well. It's not like
a whore in that sense, more like a suspense thriller.
But again October clay Face moved October that was smart,
and again that's the only like October second Veririty and Digger.
Why is an evil Dead coming out? Then there's a
chance too they could fucking do like I guess because
like the idea's Clay Faces also warned brothers, right, so
that's coming out, but it's coming on the end of October,
Like put this out October for like October second, and
then Clay Faced October twenty third, or even put Evil dead.
What's in September here, September twenty fifth, resident evil Right,
that's probably why they're scared, just in case that blows
up with that Craig a right like weapons. Still they
did move clay Face there. I still would have put
Evil di Bern there, but Evil Dead. It's not a
complete wash, right, that could still be a hit. Of course,
I said, a shorter episode. We're gonna almost have a
fall out here, but still try to do that third
episode Fireville Street. That's that supposed with that, Anne Hathaway,
You McGregor, like Dinosaur one, don't think that's gonna do well.
Digger that could go either way. Pracal Magic two I
think will do well. I think will be a hit,
and I think the budget will be crazy. Can hat
will do well considering the great beyond that's that JJ
Abrams Glen Pale like a young newly wa a couple
of struggles to survive against supernatural entity that could go
either way. Yeah, So there's a lot of movies and
then Dune that it's a hit. So really again to
do this? So Weather Heights was hit? Is there any
of that all here? Not even the bombs?
Speaker 1: For me?
Speaker 2: The only one on this list I think is a
guaranteed hit is Done three. So, and we talked about
this before, right, that's why they want They did the
cell last year and the beginning of this year. Right
started those talks because they had such a record year.
Mail us money out on paper warbas look great. The
movie division now they can have a lot of bombs
or things that underdeliver. When I just have Dune three
is the only thing I think is a bona fide hit, Disney,
There's way more than that bona fide hit paramount. Like,
let me just do a quick look here, let's do
Sony Movies twenty twenty six. Here we go. Oh, I
don't want twenty twenty five, give me okay, So let's
see here. I'm just gonna read out winners. So in
se a spleeting world, probably a winner. Resident Evil is
gonna be a winner because low budget brand New Day
is gonna be a winner. Jamaldi three is gonna be
a winner. So those are four winners. I can name
you Warner Bys right now, I can name you one. Okay,
let's go to Disney. I'm gonna do Disney like Avengers,
Toy Story five, even Manlin Groguo could be a winner, right.
I don't think it's gonna be a but it could be.
And then let's do sadly just Paramount, right, because of
what there's Disney WB Paramount Sony and then uh wait, Disney,
Warner Brothers, Sony, Paramount Universal. Right, well, look at Universe
n so paramot. Let's look a twenty twenty six movies here.
So Scream seven I would have said that's gonna be
hit and it wasn't it? Right, Let's see here Jo
pap Patrol of the Dynad movie that will be like
a modest hit, but still hit because that community. Let's see. Okay,
so yeah, paramounts, like, let's know what Paramount has here?
Prime that kind of ate it. Scream seven did well? Passenger,
that's that scary movie that's scared tear scary movie could
be hit, but we'll see paw Patrol, uh will be
a modest hit maybe a bit bigger street Fighter that's eh,
and Angry Birds. I think that's kind of mess. So
Paramount the wonder why they bought Warner Burs. But together
they have two hits guaranteed hits in the ear and
then Universal already like fucking the slate that comes up right, yeah, done,
even just the top four, Minian's Odyssey's super Mario and
Disclosure Day. They had shrekded delayed about Shrek and then
they got Mike or starting to get disclosure to either
because I think it might bomb Michael right there, four
massive guaranteed hits, even if Michael doesn't do like a
billion like I'm saying, guaranteed hit like that, that's the
thing where it's just I don't know, is there any
more here? Since that's four guaranteed hits for them, I
think that's everything. Yeah, that's everything right now. So yeah,
you look at Sony, so what so anythink I named
you a couple universally named you four? Disney named you four,
and then Paramount and Warbrows both have like one. So
that's why they're so busy selling last year, because I
think this year is gonna be a lot rougher the
whole victory lap for Warner Brothers in two twenty twenty five.
I don't think we'll be repeating twenty twenty six. And honestly,
they had Worthing heights, so that could have changed a

slate's gonna be like, and then it's gonna be funny
when people like and I don't agree with this. I
think Pam and At, Pam Adley, Uh oh, what's your
actual name, Pam Adney, Pam is it to hang on?
Mike de Luca and pam at Abdy Okay, they were
Pam abdey before it was the year start off because
remember he doesn't twenty four Rocky oh sas off. Warbros.
Might fire them then in the year all these hits,
why would they ever fall fire them? Saz one, idiot?
Why would we do that? This year? You got a

So there you go, there's your list. There's a box
office was supposed to be shorter. Of course it's not
because I fucking ramble. I hope everyone has a good
day that list is out. Make sure the list will
be out in probably like an hour or so after
you listen to this. Make sure you vote. You have
until Wednesday and then yeah, I'll try and do another
cat at some point osc predictions and promise you it'll
not be boring. See Yeah,
