00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,640
talk about. I really have not been paying attention, you know.

27
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,599
I've been on the krk Herim whatever the fuck we're

28
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,239
talking about whatever we're calling whatever we're signifying that title

29
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,760
as I don't like the name of it, but we're

30
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:37,200
going with it. So I really haven't seen much other

31
00:01:37,239 --> 00:01:41,640
than our GV Discord has been popping off about the Vega. Yeah,

32
00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:44,159
just that discussion. So I'm excited to, you know, watch

33
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,200
my own recap and get a lot because I heard

34
00:01:46,239 --> 00:01:49,879
there's some spicy announcements tonight, and yeah, go check out

35
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,840
the GV Discord. It's a great place to chat about

36
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:52,599
all these things.

37
00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: That's right, Lots of different channels for different topics and

38
00:01:56,079 --> 00:01:57,439
different things in particular.

39
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,959
Speaker 3: What else is there? I guess, yeah, Kirkling, we got

40
00:02:01,959 --> 00:02:03,439
Dexter this week.

41
00:02:03,599 --> 00:02:06,079
Speaker 2: That's right, I got Dexter this week. It sounds like

42
00:02:06,239 --> 00:02:11,199
but uh h, I hype's not really high on that one. Yeah,

43
00:02:11,319 --> 00:02:13,319
I don't know, so we'll see how the trailer goes.

44
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,560
It's always it's always fun to at least talk about

45
00:02:15,599 --> 00:02:18,439
Dexter when it's when it's about because whether it's really

46
00:02:18,479 --> 00:02:20,520
good or really bad, I guess it's a it's a

47
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,280
good thing to discuss, but hopefully it's good.

48
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 3: Just spaying an hour and a half long review with

49
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:26,919
a good story.

50
00:02:27,159 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we'll see. We'll see if it makes it

51
00:02:29,719 --> 00:02:32,639
as long as this one, because these Creature Commandos episodes

52
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,159
are not very long. And uh, I'm just gonna I'm

53
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:40,080
just gonna take it away. And I I wish this

54
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,879
was a binge model show, you know, like when it's

55
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,520
twenty minutes and you have to wait a week in between.

56
00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:49,960
Like I, I'm intriguing, Like I I I think this

57
00:02:50,039 --> 00:02:51,840
is my favorite episode out of the three that have

58
00:02:51,879 --> 00:02:54,120
been released. I was really vibing with that. I really

59
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,080
like the humor, just more team like interaction has been good.

60
00:02:59,159 --> 00:03:02,759
I much like everything that I am seeing. It's just

61
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,159
a bummer. Now it's like, okay, yeah, I guess I

62
00:03:05,159 --> 00:03:09,879
gotta wait a week, and like I guess on the

63
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,879
other hand, this is a crazy busy month schedule wise.

64
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,960
It's already a Christmas month, so it's like already intense

65
00:03:16,039 --> 00:03:19,199
with just planning family stuff. You know, we got lots

66
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,919
of reviews and stuff around, so I guess maybe in

67
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,080
one in one way, it's a blessing to not have

68
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,520
to binge the whole show in one sitting, to you know,

69
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:31,560
rush to get a review out. But I just feel

70
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,680
like it doesn't it's not really like planting a lot

71
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,840
of seeds of like what could be possibly like leading into,

72
00:03:37,919 --> 00:03:41,879
because you just don't have much time to really lead

73
00:03:41,919 --> 00:03:45,319
into like a really I don't know, engaging cliffhanger. Like

74
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,560
week to week, it seems like every episode is gonna

75
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:51,039
be kind of just focusing on a character, and then

76
00:03:51,719 --> 00:03:54,120
after that it like is just pushing along like kind

77
00:03:54,159 --> 00:03:56,719
of a unified story because they are all together, but

78
00:03:56,759 --> 00:03:59,120
it seems like we have our main crew on an

79
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,759
adventure and then we kind of just take a moment

80
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,159
to like focus on a character. Obviously, like the first

81
00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:07,439
two episodes were released together, so it felt like a

82
00:04:07,479 --> 00:04:10,360
longer episode on the release, but just having this one

83
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,360
as a standalone, you know, it's not a spoiler. It's

84
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,199
in the name. It's definitely a gi Robot focused one,

85
00:04:17,439 --> 00:04:19,240
but we only have twenty minutes, so it's like kind

86
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,600
of like eleven minutes of focus on that and then

87
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,040
like nine of focus on like kind of the crew.

88
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,480
And I don't know, like I sound negative, I definitely

89
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,319
don't want to sound that way, because I did really

90
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,920
like this episode. I am enjoying the show overall. I'm

91
00:04:32,959 --> 00:04:34,720
really liking the humor of it. I like the action

92
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,399
of the animation. I'm liking pretty much everything about it.

93
00:04:37,399 --> 00:04:40,319
It's just it's only seven episodes, right, like like like

94
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,079
it's going to be a short show, and I kind

95
00:04:43,079 --> 00:04:45,160
of wish I was able to just eat it all

96
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:50,360
at once. So yeah, and like it's one thing being

97
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,079
just like greedy and like I just want the whole

98
00:04:52,079 --> 00:04:53,959
show right now because it is so good, But it's

99
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,040
another when they are like an hour long, you know,

100
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,360
and it's like, Okay, I do like this is week

101
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,800
to week. There's lots to just theorize on what's coming on.

102
00:05:01,959 --> 00:05:03,639
It doesn't really seem like it's the type of show

103
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,759
that's really going for that. So yeah, I think personally

104
00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:11,519
I would have liked the binge model, but still really great,

105
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,720
really really dig in the show. I definitely recommend it

106
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:17,759
to people. It's it's one that I bring up now

107
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,040
when like people are asking there is so much content

108
00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:23,519
to consume, but I still suggest people check out this

109
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,079
show if you are able to find it, because I

110
00:05:26,079 --> 00:05:28,360
still have to go to my Blockbuster guy, you know,

111
00:05:28,399 --> 00:05:30,519
in the dark alley to get my copies on this

112
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,759
because it's it's not on Crazy. I found actually on

113
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,360
Prime Video. It's like through Stack TV or something like

114
00:05:38,399 --> 00:05:41,000
another additional thing. But it's just weird to me that

115
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,399
it's not on Crave because it's usually you know, everything

116
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,519
that goes on HBO or Max whatever it's called, goes

117
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,319
right on there. But is it just because it's like

118
00:05:50,399 --> 00:05:53,920
a Max only thing and like really trying to keep

119
00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:56,319
it contained in that streaming. I don't know. It's weird

120
00:05:56,319 --> 00:05:59,360
to me just not have it available on Crave for

121
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,360
us here in South Canada. But yeah, that's what.

122
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 3: It is and what it is.

123
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,199
Speaker 2: Discuss discuss, uh.

124
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: I think that you're you're spot on with the fact

125
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,279
that this should have been a binge watch. This just

126
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:21,240
being weekly. Their episodes are so freaking short, and it's

127
00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:24,399
it's tough enough for me to try and remember everything

128
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:27,600
that's going on from last week because they are just

129
00:06:27,639 --> 00:06:29,680
such short episodes. Even we did to get two episodes

130
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:32,319
last week, but this time around, I will say, on

131
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:34,399
a positive note, this episode was much more my kind

132
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:36,639
of groove. I really really enjoyed it. I was really

133
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,560
having a good time with it. But it's so freaking short,

134
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,240
So that's just such a con for me. And yeah,

135
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,959
it would have been nice if we could just binge this,

136
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,560
get it out of the way, because I mean, we

137
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,720
got we're still working through like Daredevil season two, which

138
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:54,879
I need to start watching that because we need today good. Yeah,

139
00:06:54,879 --> 00:06:56,639
so many things just in the works right now, and

140
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,959
just for this to be a weekly thing for such

141
00:06:58,959 --> 00:07:01,120
a short thing as it's just it reminds me of

142
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,040
when I was doing Clone Wars reviews for like the

143
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,040
the final season and then Bad Batch. It's like, man,

144
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,720
it is tough because they are such short episodes and

145
00:07:12,839 --> 00:07:15,240
there's only so much you can break down. But yeah,

146
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,040
at the end of the day, like it's that's fine there,

147
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,240
There's there's still some fun things in here to talk about,

148
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,040
and I'm looking forward to breaking down one scene in

149
00:07:25,079 --> 00:07:27,000
particular that just made me laugh and I knew it

150
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,600
as soon as it was as soon as the door opened,

151
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,319
I was like, oh, no, I know exactly what's going

152
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:32,680
on here.

153
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 3: And I was telling Madison like, this is so great.

154
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, the new Madison was like, Oh, they're really like sexualizing.

155
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,399
Speaker 3: These characters show Man.

156
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,639
Speaker 2: You know, they're spicy, it's bloody. Definitely feeling more r

157
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,759
rated than Craven that I just watched, you know, to

158
00:07:48,759 --> 00:07:49,560
break the fourth.

159
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:55,959
Speaker 3: Wall, absolutely, I will agree with that for sure. But yeah,

160
00:07:56,079 --> 00:07:59,240
is there anything else nonspoilers you want to throw out there?

161
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,639
Speaker 2: No, No, I don't think so. I will say, like,

162
00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:10,319
we're three episodes in seven episodes total, if I'm not

163
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,480
mistaken honestly right now, like, if it keeps on pace,

164
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:16,639
I want more of this show. I want more seasons.

165
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,079
I'm digging kind of what's going on. There's some things

166
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,720
that are a little like hinting towards something by the

167
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,000
end of this episode, and it made me curious as

168
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,399
to kind of what the overall impact that the show

169
00:08:29,439 --> 00:08:31,920
will have on the greater DC, because they've already addressed

170
00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:35,200
things that have happened right in the DC universe. Yeah,

171
00:08:35,279 --> 00:08:37,840
so I'm curious if they're gonna like it's one thing

172
00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:40,840
to just add on to a world that's already established.

173
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,000
That's like going from live action to animated, But I

174
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,879
think it's a whole nother to kind of continue on

175
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,320
as if we like, okay, live action and then were

176
00:08:47,399 --> 00:08:49,480
jumping to the animated universe that's still contained in the

177
00:08:49,519 --> 00:08:51,399
same universe, but then we're gonna jump back to live

178
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,320
action at like, you know, building upon what was introduced

179
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,600
in the animated show. I'm curious as to kind of

180
00:08:56,639 --> 00:09:03,159
what that is gonna come or better better yet to say,

181
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,600
like what's gonna just grow off of this? And and

182
00:09:05,639 --> 00:09:08,360
if they're gonna just have this as like a one

183
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,919
thing that James Gunn wanted to do just because you know,

184
00:09:11,039 --> 00:09:12,879
he's he's the guy in the chair. Now he can

185
00:09:13,159 --> 00:09:15,639
do whatever he wants. He can animate himself into his

186
00:09:15,639 --> 00:09:18,480
own credits if he wants, and he just wanted to

187
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,720
do the one show just to do it, or if

188
00:09:20,759 --> 00:09:24,480
they are really liking the potential of telling stories this way,

189
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,120
and because I'm I'm I'm loving this, I'm really really

190
00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:28,759
digging it. I want more.

191
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think I think a lot of people

192
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,679
have been well preach not preaching, but it's been very

193
00:09:36,799 --> 00:09:38,720
very creature command.

194
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 3: It's it's at a very very war reception.

195
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: So I think that you're gonna see more of this

196
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:49,000
kind of stuff popping up, which, yeah, which is good

197
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,240
because so far, I'm I'm as I said, I'm driving

198
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,720
with this episode. I had a good time with it.

199
00:09:53,919 --> 00:09:57,120
So yeah, but I think we can get into our

200
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,759
our spoilers thoughts now, So we're gonna take a quick

201
00:09:59,759 --> 00:10:01,639
ab and then we're gonna get into the nitty gritty,

202
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:02,080
so we'll.

203
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 3: Be right back and we are back, so right off

204
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:07,960
the hop this is.

205
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 1: Uh gosh, I can't even remember his name. It was

206
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,440
just an episode that was focused on him. G I

207
00:10:13,879 --> 00:10:16,039
Robot g I Robot, Thank you. I was gonna call

208
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,279
him IG robot g I Robot eleven.

209
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 2: You're getting in the Star Wars.

210
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 3: G love it. That's right.

211
00:10:21,639 --> 00:10:24,279
Speaker 1: This was an origin story episode for him kind of

212
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,840
well not necessarily origin story, but like a little bit

213
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,039
more of his history and back.

214
00:10:28,919 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 2: I'd say origin though, right, because it's like it like

215
00:10:31,159 --> 00:10:34,720
is explaining why he is who he is and then

216
00:10:34,799 --> 00:10:38,000
kind of what happened after that and just kind of

217
00:10:38,039 --> 00:10:41,480
explains like yeah, like like his his skill set, but

218
00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:43,879
also his motivations, I feel so I would say it's

219
00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:45,639
kind of an origin story in the same vein that

220
00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:49,360
like the previous episode was Bride of Frankenstein's origin story, right,

221
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:53,120
like we see the flashbacks and like just splices of

222
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,440
history for like running Away from Frankenstein, where in this

223
00:10:56,519 --> 00:10:59,639
one it's spliced in throughout the episode of like flashing

224
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,480
back of the World War two time and then like

225
00:11:01,519 --> 00:11:03,600
the sixties time and then kind of what got him

226
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,440
to where he is now. And I kinda know that,

227
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,440
you know, we've jumped around with putting a couple of characters.

228
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,200
I feel like that is gonna be the trend of

229
00:11:12,279 --> 00:11:15,440
the show, like focusing on a character because how many

230
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,120
members are there. I'm gonna use our background one, two.

231
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 3: Three, four five, Not Frankenstein.

232
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess he would. He would have been coupled

233
00:11:25,279 --> 00:11:29,279
already with uh with Brida Frankenstein. So I think like

234
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,639
we'll be probably just focusing on like a character in episode.

235
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,399
But then, like as I was saying in the non spoilers,

236
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,879
just kind of doing that and then also at the

237
00:11:37,879 --> 00:11:41,440
same time progressing the story forward. So like the I

238
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,559
like that formula. Actually like although I want longer episodes.

239
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,840
I think it's still decent the way that they are

240
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,879
doing it. It just again because I am liking it

241
00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:54,240
when stuff's going on, And then I checked the run time.

242
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,840
I'm like, man, I only have seven minutes left of

243
00:11:55,879 --> 00:11:58,240
this episode, Like fuck, it was just getting good. So

244
00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:02,159
a little bit of a bummer there, but yeah, I

245
00:12:02,159 --> 00:12:05,000
think that's what's gonna happen. Then obviously, like the finale,

246
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,159
he probably won't have a flashback. It'll probably be all

247
00:12:07,799 --> 00:12:11,320
stuff going forward at least. Yeah, yeah, what I would hope.

248
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: I was afraid that him getting killed be like, oh,

249
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,000
I finally am like kind of latching onto a character here,

250
00:12:17,039 --> 00:12:19,879
and they're killing him off. But I'm sure that they're

251
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,480
you know, they're going to bring him back. They're going

252
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,559
to rebuild him better than ever.

253
00:12:25,879 --> 00:12:28,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I was, Yeah, I was gonna say that.

254
00:12:28,759 --> 00:12:33,039
I don't think he's uh, he's a goner forever. I

255
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,320
would be kind of shocked because I feel like, on

256
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,720
one hand, he is extremely OPI it seems compared to

257
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,080
other members of the group, But to just go through

258
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,399
like his whole origin and like it still seems like

259
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,519
we're really early on in the show at least telling

260
00:12:47,639 --> 00:12:51,200
these characters stories, and out of any character that would

261
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,120
be the most believable to come back would be the

262
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,080
guy that is a robot and has been like reconstructed before,

263
00:12:58,399 --> 00:13:01,279
and for my own I would want him back because

264
00:13:01,279 --> 00:13:03,840
I just like the comedy around the character. I like

265
00:13:03,919 --> 00:13:07,279
how you have this character that's just programmed a certain way,

266
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,639
so the humor is around that, right, Like we're already

267
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,320
kind of talking about that previous episode when everyone's sleeping,

268
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,879
he's guarding the door and he's just recounting his victories,

269
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,440
you know, like at this battle like fourteen Nazis and

270
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,879
like everyone's asleep, but he's just announcing it into the world.

271
00:13:20,879 --> 00:13:24,080
So I like, I really like the humor all around him,

272
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,399
you know, the great shawangun voicing Gi Gi robot.

273
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he does a good job. He does a

274
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,559
very good job with the voicing of this character.

275
00:13:34,759 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

276
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 3: He was just he was a lot.

277
00:13:35,919 --> 00:13:40,159
Speaker 1: Of fun getting to see how he's basically gone from

278
00:13:40,399 --> 00:13:43,639
laboratory to laboratory and just going through tests getting some

279
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,879
pretty cool upgrades. Because when you see him in his

280
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:50,600
first conflict, and he has kind of like an iron

281
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:52,879
giant mode, I'd say where he like rises up and

282
00:13:52,919 --> 00:13:55,519
he's like this this shooting and killing, and then.

283
00:13:55,639 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: You choose to be yeah, Superman.

284
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,519
Speaker 1: And then it changes because when he's actually engaging in conflict,

285
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,519
he's got like, okay, his top are attaches and he's

286
00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:08,200
got like a hovercraft thing going on. Yeah, which is

287
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,320
pretty cool. But what what did you feel about his

288
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,360
last kind of owner? I guess before he was put.

289
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:22,159
Speaker 2: In prison, Michael Ricker that his name, right, YANDU Yeah, yeah,

290
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,879
I mean I love the whole all the flashbacks, especially

291
00:14:25,919 --> 00:14:29,559
that he's just like he was built for a specific purpose.

292
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,000
And then it seems like Michael, especially like the way

293
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,000
that he's like voicing the character. It seems like he

294
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,840
is just like a nice guy and you know, like

295
00:14:35,879 --> 00:14:38,960
he's just gonna have a buddy now, like this Gi Robot.

296
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,000
He went through killing Nazis and now he's just gonna

297
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,840
have a buddy. And I wasn't expecting like the Nazi

298
00:14:44,879 --> 00:14:47,039
thing until they went like he actually went there, and

299
00:14:47,039 --> 00:14:48,799
then you're starting to see the tattoos. I'm like, oh man,

300
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,399
there's gonna be a fucking get together. At first, I

301
00:14:51,399 --> 00:14:56,039
thought it was going to be like a total what's

302
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:01,600
the word I'm looking for, Like a total case of misunderstanding.

303
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:03,840
Uh right, Like like like I thought it was gonna

304
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,559
be like anti Nazis or something. He just pops off

305
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,279
and that's something that just haunts the characters that he

306
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,759
just murdered a bunch of innocent people. But no, I

307
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:16,120
also found it hilarious when he just stands up, he's like, sorry, buddy,

308
00:15:16,159 --> 00:15:18,080
you're about to get shot in the face, Nazi or

309
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,320
whatever the hell he calls him, and then just pops

310
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,919
off on a blood spree and then of course he

311
00:15:22,919 --> 00:15:26,240
gets like arrested for it. But I found that just hilarious,

312
00:15:26,279 --> 00:15:29,360
and it like starts very wholesome and like nice, you know,

313
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,720
and oh yeah, no, I was gonna be a soldier,

314
00:15:31,799 --> 00:15:34,200
but my bum leg here and like like he's just

315
00:15:34,279 --> 00:15:37,000
he's just totally jazzed about having this buddy. And just

316
00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:39,639
the way that Michael Rooker is like delivering the lines too.

317
00:15:39,759 --> 00:15:41,840
I think at the time, like I was convinced this

318
00:15:41,879 --> 00:15:44,000
guy was gonna be, you know, an innocent person, a

319
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:49,000
nice individual with nice views of the world and other individuals,

320
00:15:49,399 --> 00:15:51,960
and I was just kind of like, man, I kind

321
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,200
of like this Michael Rooker as like a hero character,

322
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,960
even though it's not like the live action acting of

323
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,960
the character. I've just only seen him really play villains. Well,

324
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,960
actually YANDU is not really a villain by the end,

325
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,960
but still just like like a kookie weird character, whereas

326
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,240
this guy just seems like a nice generic white dude.

327
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:12,200
Uh and then just shocked when the gun gets pulled

328
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:13,799
up in his face. But that's what happens when you

329
00:16:13,879 --> 00:16:16,799
fascist views and you're a Nazi. So there you go.

330
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:20,519
Sorry to you when you're midsip, terrible time.

331
00:16:20,679 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: I took a quick, quick, little quencher. I totally agree

332
00:16:24,519 --> 00:16:27,519
when that scene when he when the guys got him

333
00:16:27,519 --> 00:16:29,200
in the car and they're driving, We're just going to

334
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,039
a meeting, you know, but freedom and stuff.

335
00:16:31,039 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 3: I thinkeet, oh fuck, I know exactly what this is

336
00:16:33,879 --> 00:16:34,200
gonna be.

337
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: And they go in there and like Gi Robots inspecting

338
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,440
the people's tattoos, and he's like hmm, and then he

339
00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:45,399
sits down and then the banner on stage opens up

340
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:49,559
and it's a big swastika and just Gi Robot. You

341
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:52,440
can hear him mumble under his breath, like, oh boy,

342
00:16:52,919 --> 00:16:56,519
he knows. He thought he was friends with these guys,

343
00:16:56,519 --> 00:16:57,919
but then he knows what's gotta go down.

344
00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 3: So that was really funny.

345
00:17:00,039 --> 00:17:02,519
Speaker 2: Funny is like a lot of his character is like

346
00:17:02,559 --> 00:17:05,920
that robotic, you know, stereotypical robot where he's just ones

347
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,599
and zeros, Like there is no like gray areas. It's

348
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,680
just like ones and zeros and and like I have

349
00:17:10,799 --> 00:17:13,200
my directive to kill Nazis and that's it. But he

350
00:17:13,279 --> 00:17:17,440
still has like some human like like qualities in that regard, right,

351
00:17:17,559 --> 00:17:21,039
He's just like, Okay, let's do this, and then gets

352
00:17:21,079 --> 00:17:23,319
up and does his directive. But like he still has

353
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,559
that human quality to at least like process like, oh man,

354
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,279
like this is not exactly what I was hoping it

355
00:17:28,279 --> 00:17:30,119
would be, but it is what it is. So now

356
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:31,680
I gotta do what I was programmed for. And then

357
00:17:32,079 --> 00:17:36,039
so that humor around the character is just is just fantastic.

358
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,640
So yeah, yeah, that was hilarious.

359
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: It's nice to see his friendship kind of expand to

360
00:17:40,839 --> 00:17:42,920
he saves I can't remember her name, Nina, or.

361
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 2: We forgot her name last week as well, but saves

362
00:17:47,079 --> 00:17:49,119
he saves her when the tub. That was kind of

363
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,119
a nice heroic move.

364
00:17:50,519 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, brutal too, just being she's I mean, they it

365
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,279
was generous because they she was direct suffocating, I guess

366
00:17:56,279 --> 00:17:58,720
suffocating outside. So they put her in a bathtub with water,

367
00:17:58,759 --> 00:18:01,039
and then they just put the barbed wire over tops.

368
00:18:01,079 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 3: They wanted to keep her.

369
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,319
Speaker 2: Alive so she couldn't get out, Yeah, I guess. Yeah.

370
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: And even the bride's arms were fixed too. It's just

371
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,880
it's yeah that it was all a decoy to get

372
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,559
them out of the castle so that they could go.

373
00:18:13,079 --> 00:18:16,960
These people could go and actually try and kill the princess,

374
00:18:17,039 --> 00:18:19,319
which was a crazy scene. It was a crazy epic

375
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:19,880
battle there.

376
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 2: And mm hmm. Yeah, she fucks up the one dude's face, well,

377
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:28,400
scratches the one guy and then really fucks up the

378
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:33,599
one dude's face with the gun and then Sirce that's

379
00:18:33,599 --> 00:18:35,920
her name. Also, I didn't realize last week, but that's

380
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:41,839
Anya Chilatra. Who did you watch Witcher? She's Jennifer of Vangerberg. Yes,

381
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,079
and I've only seen her in that and I loved

382
00:18:46,079 --> 00:18:49,880
her as that character. I actually had never finished that show,

383
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:54,119
so that's my I haven't either guilty announcement there, but

384
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,240
she was fantastic in the first two seasons, and that's

385
00:18:57,279 --> 00:18:59,359
a character that I really love from Witcher three. So

386
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,799
I'm like there's a different type of casting. You know,

387
00:19:01,839 --> 00:19:03,240
we'll see if she can really do it. But I

388
00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:05,720
was actually really impressed by that. So to see her

389
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,200
voicing Circe, uh was kind of fun there, and I

390
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,079
thought she just straight up murdered the princess like instantly, right,

391
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,640
she's she just like desert her power, but just blows

392
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:21,160
her blows her back, and fuck she got messed up

393
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:25,599
by mister Fosphorus, by Weasel first and foremost. I was like,

394
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,119
is Weasel really gonna be just like the Captain Marvel

395
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,160
of this situation? He just comes in in like one

396
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,920
taps this like super powerful character U shreds shreds her

397
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:39,079
up and then yeah, Phosphorus burns her face just like

398
00:19:39,319 --> 00:19:42,000
a bunch of ultimate moves are used on her and

399
00:19:42,079 --> 00:19:43,880
it's pretty durable. You know, she took all of it

400
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,880
and wasn't killed by the end of it.

401
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 3: That's right. She throws the line ut like you have

402
00:19:50,279 --> 00:19:50,960
no idea what?

403
00:19:51,279 --> 00:19:54,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's that's what I was gonna lead into,

404
00:19:54,519 --> 00:19:57,559
is like, obviously that's setting up towards something, and just

405
00:19:57,599 --> 00:20:00,440
the way that it was said, I I don't know,

406
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,680
it's probably just like a this season this show type situation,

407
00:20:04,839 --> 00:20:07,000
but it had me thinking about what I was kind

408
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,359
of alluding to with my spoiler free section of if

409
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,319
this show is going to be leading like starting something

410
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,039
that's gonna be leading into like the future of more

411
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,839
DC films, whether that's live action or even shows. Do

412
00:20:20,839 --> 00:20:22,400
you think it's just gonna be like a like a

413
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,200
this season threat. I feel like that's definitely most likely,

414
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,599
but just I don't know. It had my mind bouncing

415
00:20:28,599 --> 00:20:33,359
around the ideas of a potential introduction from this show

416
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,400
that is like a big deal going forward in the

417
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:36,200
DC universe.

418
00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:39,839
Speaker 1: I think it's just gonna be a threat here and there,

419
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:41,559
just for this this season.

420
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,079
Speaker 3: I don't think it'll be.

421
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 1: I think I think everything's gonna be kind of contained,

422
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,839
where you have the threat that Peacemaker show has that's

423
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,720
contained to its own thing, and who knows, my season

424
00:20:50,759 --> 00:20:52,680
two will kind of piggyback and be the same threat

425
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,640
or it will be something else. But I feel like

426
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,799
all of James guns projects are very much like start

427
00:20:58,839 --> 00:21:01,519
to finish. This is the story and this is just

428
00:21:01,599 --> 00:21:05,480
it's concluding here, and that doesn't mean it won't reprise

429
00:21:05,599 --> 00:21:08,000
in another project. I think you can keep something open

430
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,839
ended a little bit, and I mean James Gunn does

431
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,559
do that as well. But I think ultimately this main

432
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,519
villain will be something that's just present here because we

433
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,839
are seven episodes total and we're I guess we're borderline

434
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,599
entering the halfway point when we move in towards episode four,

435
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,920
so there's still a lot of story to tell, a

436
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,480
lot of juice that's still in there.

437
00:21:31,519 --> 00:21:36,279
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think someone like Peacemaker could actually be

438
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,240
like a really fun inclusion, not necessarily like Adam to

439
00:21:40,279 --> 00:21:42,880
the show, but just like interacting with these types of characters.

440
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 3: Obviously I could see them adding him obviously.

441
00:21:45,319 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and like obviously it's like in that rated vein,

442
00:21:47,519 --> 00:21:49,400
like he would work the humor around him. He's already

443
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,000
interacted with Weasel before in the Suicide Squad movie, so

444
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,839
it makes a lot of sense there. And uh, there'd

445
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,720
just be I like, you would have to have John

446
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,440
Cena voice and like it woud obviously have to be

447
00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:03,200
that same character. And I feel like that's a pretty

448
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,160
easy thing to do. You know, Johnson is busy guy,

449
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,519
but drop some voice lines here and there. It's easier

450
00:22:07,559 --> 00:22:09,480
than you know, putting on the whole attire for the

451
00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:10,960
Peacemaker character.

452
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: Could have done it while they were doing Peacemaker, Like James,

453
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,880
that is true, Like, hey you just get here's a mic,

454
00:22:16,039 --> 00:22:17,440
just record some lines for me.

455
00:22:17,559 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 3: So yeah, who knows? Is there anything else you wanted

456
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,720
to throw out there?

457
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 2: Is there anything else that we didn't really talk about?

458
00:22:29,519 --> 00:22:31,799
Like yeah, not a whole lot of focus on the

459
00:22:31,839 --> 00:22:39,000
other characters with the Bride, right, Yeah, we didn't have

460
00:22:39,079 --> 00:22:41,799
enough Frank sign in this. Uh no, but we know

461
00:22:41,839 --> 00:22:46,079
he's coming, Yeah, we know he's coming. And yeah, the

462
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,359
Princess ended up being well, she got roughed up a

463
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,880
little bit, but she ended up being okay. They saved

464
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,839
her in The Weasel was a big helping hand in that.

465
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,480
But yeah, no, I think we kind of hit everything

466
00:22:58,519 --> 00:23:01,480
I wanted to say. Oh actually, yeah, that's what I

467
00:23:01,519 --> 00:23:04,400
was gonna say, is I was hoping Gi Robot was

468
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,000
going to meet up with his old boys like that

469
00:23:07,079 --> 00:23:11,599
he was in war with, because the one guy I

470
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:14,400
can't remember what his name was, but the one that

471
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,079
like basically gets him like after the war, he does

472
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,640
mention that like it was twenty years since the war.

473
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,480
So it made me think that maybe he could like

474
00:23:21,559 --> 00:23:24,359
meet up with them, as I don't know out a

475
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,319
veterans type thing, but situation never came out. I just

476
00:23:27,319 --> 00:23:28,759
thought it would have been like a wholesome moment of

477
00:23:28,839 --> 00:23:31,160
him meeting up with his boys again because that's who

478
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,480
we wanted to see. Yeah.

479
00:23:35,519 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: Cool, Well, yeah, I'd give this episode of passing grade.

480
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,599
But yeah, I think it was all around. It was

481
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,480
a good time. So hopefully the upcoming episodes keep on

482
00:23:44,799 --> 00:23:50,240
this trajectory upwards. For me, yeah, but we'll be back.

483
00:23:50,319 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 3: We got again.

484
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,720
