Speaker 1: Hellllo, ladies and gentlemen. Hello everybody, and welcome back to
Tres Hold You the March eleventh edition, the Best Actor
March Madness, Round two results and Round three brackets. I'm
your host, as always, Tras Snell, doing this for a
second time. So I recorded seven minutes of this episode
completely muted, and then I even talked about how because
I was not live, none of the episodes are live
this week, just busy week. I didn't have music. I
was shaking my head and I went, oh, I forgot
the music, and I thought it was the biggest thing.
Didn't even know till I don't know how. I just
happened to see in the corner of my eye the
red mute thing. Thank goodness. Only seve minutes so I
only did the intro and round one. So there is
two rounds now that I know the winners for unfortunate
I'd like to try and go and blind. I checked
it Monday night and then I like, okay, I'll wait
and see because I can do the tiebreaker live on air. Right,
So there's two that I do know, but I'll still
I'll still build up with still some fun, but a
big thanking everyone that voted uh, but a big thank
you to my eye for fucking catching that if I
record a whole episode. As I talked about lat episode,
my plan is still to do three episodes. I did
the obviously Round one and box Office on Monday, I'm
doing Round two here. I'm just doing Round two because,
as we saw, I can ramble and when things can talk,
and even alone, I can have tangents. So even if
it is shorter, that's fine. I'm gonna do my Oscar predictions.
That'll be my third Traves told you this week. And
then if you're asking, hey, you said the news, are
some topics the news, I've shifted all the way to
not all the way it's tomorrow, but to the Geek
first episode this week, because all we're doing right now
is the going Geek winners. Usually, like reading those off
only takes about like half an hour to forty minutes,
So there's multiple news items that I want to talk
about with them. I think it's different. Like Trass told you,
I do talk about news all the time that they
would enjoy, but sometimes they usually the main topic or
something centered on something that I could rant about for about,
or if there is something they have no interest in
right where the Pixar stuff, sure, but Pixar Lord of
the Rings, this Wolverine spider Man movie rumor. That's also
I'd very much like to get their opinions onto a
m degree right, and I think the hells things to say.
And again, as I love doing trestally love doing news,
but I always have more fun talking with those guys, right,
So that's where all the news is gonna be saved
for Thursday. So we'll be doing the Golden Geek. So
this is your last day, folks, Golden Geek's winners for
MS and regular Golden Geeks, last day to vote. We
will be revealing those winners tomorrow and then some news,
so it's gonna be a good time. But yeah, let's
get to this, okay. So round one Michael Fassbender versus
Timothy Chalome, and your winner is again Drummer. I got
all on Drummer. Fifty eight percent goes to Timothy Shallow.
May not surprised here I would go here. I hope
I've said this to Emily because she's I talked to
her about the poll and everything I tell the winners
and what you thinks, and she keeps going like past
the ten years. No, no, no, you gotta think like again,
that's current day, present day actors. Yeah. I don't know
if I even look at it that way, you know,
just how I think about it always being a stick
in them on my love. But I hope that's how
people are voting, because I if they're not, I do
wonder if it was just like of all time, if
we could factor in Michael Fastbenner's twenty ten to twenty fifteen,
if like, that's x men in there, I guess her
even whole career, right, that's x men. That's bastards, that's shame,
that's twelve years of slave, that's hunger, lots of great
stuff in there. But I feel like for current day,
past ten years, you kind of gotta go with Timmy,
right in my opinion. So yeah, I thought that's way
it's gonna go, and that's the way I would vote
as well. So you got that. Okay. Now we have
William Dafoe versus Emma Stone, a brutal one. This is
one that I can't say not not a tiebreaker, So
I'm gonna worry about that. It is forty one to
fifty eight percent, so close This could have been a
final eye this up on the episode I just recorded. Muted.
Defoe has so much credits. If you go look at
his IMDb right now, like stop, or while you're listening,
search a WILLM. Defoe and go from twenty fifteen to
twenty like now, it is crazy how much fucking stuff
this guy is doing. But I listed up a whole
bunch of things he'd done, like his biggest ones. I'd
say the Great Wall floater project at Attorney's Gate, Vox Lux,
the Lighthouse to go, Yeah, I'm shout out, Togo, Saxon
is justly, the French Dispatch night or Ali noa Home,
the Northmen inside, poor things, kinds of kindness, beetlejuice, nots
for RAWD two. That's his biggest stuff. This guy is
fuck man and the birthday party.
Speaker 2: I didn't.
Speaker 1: I forgot that came on. I want to say, this
guy's working a lot, but he's working to the m degree.
He's working great, So I could even though myself the
winner is Emma Stone, if I didn't say that the
winner is emistone at fifty eight percent, even if I agree,
then I think Emma some One's the best currently, right,
now I could make a case for Dafoe, and I
could have made an easy case that should have been
the finals. Obviously, the brackets just random, right, But like,
if you're telling me, okay, who is someone that you
could see that's better than the Emiston right now? Dafoe
And it's not when those like, oh, I don't know,
like I think I go tip for tab but I
could feel happy and feel succync by being yeah, willing
Dafoe is the best actor in the world right now,
and that's just like his he's twenty, like his past
ten years, not even the rest of his career, like
he is definitely one of the greatest of all time.
I do at some point. I don't know if it'll
be next year, because I did like Superman Mike's idea
of Dune directors. But I would love to do a
Best Actress and never win Oscar one And that's all time,
not present day and willing to fot to me, that's
like he's number one for best actor ever, won Oscar
of any sort. He's up there, so all right, first response,
I don't know, And this one, man, I I don't know.
I don't get it. I don't know if it's some
of the hype, but right now, big blowout, seventy five percent,
the matchup is Hugh Jagon versus Michael B. Jordan, And
that's who got that seventy five percent is Michael B. Jordan.
I don't agree with it being such of a blowout,
and I don't agree with it being Michael bat Jordan.
I put Michael B. Jordan in here. Don't get me wrong.
I think you can beat some actors in here. But
I just feel like him beating Walking Phoenix. To me,
that was a big shock. That was an upset. I
like I said, is this the sinner thing? But like,
let me go again for Hugh Jackman. Maybe it's because
the last ten years has been a little quieter. But
we're not gonna talk about Pan But Chappie, Okay, you
got fucking Logan, Eddie fucking Logan. Uh oh right, the
front Runner. He was great in the front Runner. Yeah,
come on, I think there's all like front Runner. Bad
educator is a bad education? Right? Where is it here? Yeah? Bad?
Like patrons. I mean to speak with you, this is
the vote you you get it right, But like, okay,
I'm gonna take a guess and let me know if
you guys have seen this, Bad Education, The front Runner,
and what was either one I know, and there's another
one in here, oh in the Sun, which The Sun,
very controversial movie. I get it because it's talking about
suicide and some angles it takes not for everybody, right,
But those two, those three movies, I guarantee a lot
of you have not seen. And it's not movie, it's performance.
And that's why for me, I have to go take
a look and see what Monggy Jordan has up right there.
But yeah, Logan The front Runner, Bad Education, Reminiscence, which
I even think he's good there, The Free Guy, The Sun, Deadpool,
Wolverine Songs on Blue like I think he just says
a bit more trappy's a bit more variety where Michael B.
Jordan obviously sinners huge form right now, right, that does
a big play into it. Black Panther, that's also huge.
That's a big win firm. That's one of the best
film performances of all time. Let's go from twenty to fifteen,
which he's got a lot of credits here, the Alicia
Keys Show Me Love music video. Okay, so it does help.
I guess I I'll purposely, purposely admit this. I don't
know what the fuck I mean, he's saying. Sometimes when
I'm doing these gats and loan, you just say things
like to fill dead air, purposely admit. I don't know
what the that sounds like someone like in the Bill
Clint trials, they were like like, do you tell us
about this? And it's like do you personally admit? And
it's like, yeah, I do personally admit this, And you know,
it sounds like something the would admit, like oh, or
can you tell us the truth about this? Well, I
personally admit. It's like that whole Bill Bill Clint thing
when he was on trial and he like said that
he didn't have sex with Monica Lewinsky and all like
the running around of the stuff he did, and it's like, well,
that's still sex because well I don't define that's like
purposely Emit sounds like something shady that someone would say.
So I can admit here that I do forget that
Creed is twenty fifteen, which is a big help. I
for some reason thought that was earlier. So that is
a help. So I'll say Creed obviously they got that
they're black panther you got that their Creed two and
all the Creeds work the same way as Wolverines. Those
also work for me. It's not like okay, but like
they there's some good stuff in that, right, Let's see
without remorse i've ever seen. But come on, I don't
think there's anything amazing. Spacely have great cameo and Creed
three and Sinners. I just again, I feel like Hugh
Jackman has more ready in the in the year than
Michael B. Jordan does. I could be wrong, but that's
just that's just my feeling on it. Let's see here, dude,
let's see one second. Okay, So yeah, that twice Michael B.
Jordan has beat a person I don't think he should
have been in Walking Phoenix and Hugh Jackman. But that's
the way it goes. I only get a vote if
you were asking, if you were wondering, if they haven't
heard me say before. I only vote on a tiebreaker.
I don't know if there's a tiebreaker. Here. We're on
round three, so we'll get to round four here. Okay,
another one that is just like last I'm a big,
a big difference and this one surprises me just like you, Jay,
Michael be Jordan. But this is Killing Murphy versus mahershal Lee.
Twenty five percent to seventy five percent. That's seventy five
percent going to Killian Murphy. I guess I like understand,
because I feel like Killian has a lot of hype
right now. We talked about feel like his hits are
a bit more recent than mahershal Lee because Marshall Lee.
I feel that like, like, what there, what are the oh,
let me pull it up. I feel like green Book
is still now right like in our time, Yeah, twenty eighteen,
and Moonlight's still now. I guess again, I'm kind of surprised,
Like I'm not surprised by the winner here, I'm just
surprised how not close it is, you know, like the
Dafoe and Stone went to me like what was like
fifty to forty two is like, yeah, that makes sense,
that's very close. Seventy five to twenty five. Now I
would have gone for killing as well, Uh, I don't. Yeah,
this is actually when I'm happy to not do a
typewriter because I say that, but then the second I
say that, it leaves my mouth. I'm like, would I though,
because I'm just trying to think of the versatility, because
I feel like marshall Y might have a bit more
of a Swiss army knife like he could do. I
feel like Ali, you could put in a whore, you
put in a comic movie, you put in romance, put
in a comic or like a drama. I think you
can kill all those word Murphy. I don't know if
he can kill n like a rom com but his
other like the other ones, might be stronger. Right, that's
very tough. I'm just very happy. I guess I'm just
surprised by the percentage because I can't even pick a
winner here. I guess I would have leaned a little
towards killing Murphy, but I guess it could just be
some lately hype again and watch Peaky Blinders, and but
that is like a good thing because like that shows
again he plays a very stoic bad character in a sense,
but he does a lot in that show. And there's
tons of powerful scenes even the movie that just came out.
Great stuff there, even though I didn't love the movie.
So okay, killan Murphy. Moving forward, all right, we got
Florence Pugh. Here'us Robert passing your winner at sixty three percent.
Florence Pugh. Florence Peugh takes it, gets the win. Yeah,
this was one that was locked at fifty for a while. Again,
that's a very tough one. I think the patron's got
it right here. I think I would lean towards Florence.
I think with her, it's just I think they are
both similar that they can what I just gave that analogy,
have to name all these drawings. Can they do it?
They both can do that. I think Florence just has
a bit more credits to the name, So I think
the versatility has got to get a shown off, a
bit more raw passing has taken some breaks. I feel
like right now he's in a lot of stuff, which
is good because the great actress. I'll watch it, but
I just feel like Florence, this was definitely one that
has more reps, so I think that helps her there.
But yeah, I would lean there as well. Oh no,
I got my first, Oh boy, I got my first
fifty percent first time worker. I gotta do Zendia versus
Kate bland Chet. Hmmm, alright, let's do a credits. Let's
take a look, cause I talked about this last episode.
I felt like the boys kind of took Kate Blanchett down,
not just easily, they like kind of wrote her off
when Kirklin Dylan talked about but I understood because and
that's what we're gonna get to. Let's look at the
last ten years. Okay, I'm gonna count just the ones
that I think are outstanding. That I put is like,
look at this, like amazing work. Okay, So for Zandia,
that's none of the Spider Man's she's good in them.
None of the Spider Man's Okay, all right, so you
still doing music videos ten years ago? Look at that,
you know, spider Man. Gray Showman, I've never seen. So
maybe she's great. I'm sorry. So we're going for a while,
that's the thing. Like so PRIs and Day let's see,
so it's speramnt homecoming. I think she's good and fine,
but that's not like a great performance, right, Gray Showman,
I can't speak to But I've heard the same thing
that she's good in there? Isn't that? Who is that?
Who is the other male? Oh? Zach Efron? Right? Um,
Casey Undercover, duc dot Goose? Uh, this is what I mean?
Like Casey Undercover, I guess she's Oh that shown in
twenty eighteen, so that's her kids show. Okay, Wonderful Life.
I'm not sure if that's a remake or whatnot, but
let's take a look here. I'm sorry my piece's being slow,
because always is with the works of them, Okay, small Foot,
the Voice, the OA three episodes spiring fun from Home.
Eh uh, Malcolm in case, she's good in that. I
don't know if that's like a great by k the dude,
I was like doing two all kanas they are great.
No Way Home okay, fine, but your Ephoria that's a
great and then Challengers that's great like to me, and
the Tough Thing is right the Forest t show so
much more there to chew on, but it's still like
a one performance to me. That's I only have three
like the fantastic category with Challengers, Dune and Euphoria. The
rest are all like good, nothing's bad there, right, The
rest are all good. But it's not like I'm not
putting Spider Man in the blow me away category. I
think me and Kirkla have said that before before The
Eyes watched You for You, it's like she feels like
a lesser actor, not because of her just because of
the material and the script they gave her, like she
could be given much more juicier scene than that, but
they don't write. So let's go to keep on chip
past ten years and I know at least two because
I know Tar, that's gonna be a one, and then
Carol's gonna be a one. So that's two right now.
So let's take a look at the twenty fifteen choos
in Euphoria. Tiger Voice, that's something else. Okay, so we
got that true manifesto. Let's see, No, that's a short
throw Ragnarrock and Oceans eight. Well, that's two greats right there. No,
very good but not greats. House with the Clock on
its walls? How to Train Your Dragon? Okay, where did
Ben Bernadett go? Okay, pretty good. Let's see Miss America
Homemade Stage, Nightmare Alley and don't look up. H I
don't know fucking had any of them to like that?
The great category, you know, And I merrily, I don't
think i've ever fully seen the fully and think I
started never got round to it, so I from what
I saw him, I actually don't think she was nominated.
Tar Gironda Torre's Pinocchio. But then and then Black Bag
that will be her three She's fucking great nat mm hmm.
And then you have Borderlands.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I think, hmmm, that's right there, three strong
ones and da it's three strong ones.
Speaker 1: Who's the most strongest thing? Squid Game, she's in the
fir An episode. You know, some people aren't gonna like this,
clearly because it is at fifty, But I'm gonna have
to go to the great, the wonderful, the wickedly talented,
the person that as far as oscars go, they're gonna
win some. I'm going with Zundaia. I think it's just
that the strengths are strong, because, don't get wrong, Tar
is fucking incredible. For me. I love Tara. I know
some people don't. I love Tar and I love her,
and that Carol's great, and then Black Pigs really good.
I think just the hot like it is, the euphoria.
I will say that it's like the way Matts mchelson
got in because of Hannibal before it and I said,
it's kind of a cheat, right, It kind of like
it puts her in there as far as like it's
multiple episodes a series, but still great work. Someone could
be in that series and not be great, right, so
then it would go down right there, or go against
the record, or wouldn't count at all. Right, So and
obviously we all talk about the episode in season two
when she's like going through the withdrawals. That is an
incredible performance right there. So yeah, gonna go with Zendia.
So I had to break my first tie thereo Zendaia
taking it kind of I thought it was gonna I
thought that one would not be as close. I thought,
like Killian and Marshall, are you and Michael B. Jordan.
I thought Tho woud be closer. This was the fact
that this is a fifty percent interesting So alright, no tie.
Here we have round seven, Anya Taylor Joy, Leo Nardo Dicapro.
I don't know if that's like I say the name,
but we'll do it now to hype it up. Odd pairing,
I think I I think I knew it was gonna win,
and that as a winner sixty six percent Leo. I
think Leo's gonna get far. I think Leo could be
a top four. I'm not saying he's not for me. Uh.
I think with me there's tough because there's people like
to Foe, I'd put over him because the body of
work and then how different he is. But Leo's best
years have been now, Like legitimately now he got better,
I'd say, since he's always been great, but I feel
like there was for a while he was just a
great actor. He can never be like a great character actor,
just like, oh he's gonna play a very similar roles,
you're gonna get a great performance out of him. I
do think, I don't know if it's for sure this,
but I do credit Tarantino for I think unlocking something
in him with Calvin Candy. I think that turned him
to a different acting style, and now he got all
these great characters he's done. So I do think his
best career is his ladder half. It's not like other
people like with you know, with Fastbend or even Blanchette,
you could say, oh, some earlier stuff if that was
factored in there, how they do. No, I think Leo's
in his best age now as far as acting goes.
So all right, the final one Christian Bail versus Jacob
A Lordie, Holy fuck uh another blowaway pretty much seventy
five percent going to the goat. Christian Bane, Jacob Lordy,
nice to see you. Glad you got him in here
at twenty five percent. Not surprised. So always went the
way I thought I was gonna go. Reason I'm saying,
holy fuck is next round we're gonna have and I'll
do the brackets. We're gonna go backwards. We're gonna Leonardo
capro Us, Christian Bale. Holy moly, holy moly. That's uh,
that's gonna be a tough one. That's oh, that could
go multiple ways, like I that's when I don't actually know.
I geez, oh, yeah, that's uh hmm, yeah, I don't
know that. Yeah, I'm just trying to think about even
what I would do. Don't want them to be a
tiebreaker because I feel that I did say that Leo
has his better career years have been now. But it's
almost like the end Kate Blanchette thing is as high
as high as highest Christian Bale. I don't know, I
really don't. So we'll see. Sorry, I should have set
out to you and want to drink. Oh and this
fuck man. People were already dropping that these poles were
gonna tough, and then round two give me Florence Pugh
versus Andia. Oh, oh god, damn it. That's tough. Oh
that's a tough one. Yeah, that that's tough again because again,
even when I did the bland Chet versus Anddia, and
I look at the projects, it still comes down to
the quality of acting, right, And that's why it still
was the day I gave it over to her. So
I think Points has more credits and more versatility as
far as what she's showed off that someone will go.
Has she given any performances gray as that seen in
you for it too? Right? That's tough. Good luck, patrons,
good luck, don't tie these all right, and then Killian
Murphy versus Michael Jordan. Is Michael be Jordan gonna continue
on this fucking streak. He took down Walking, he took
down here Jackman, He's gonna take down Oppenheimer. He didn't
take down the fucking Thomas Shelby of the Peaky Blinders.
You need to take down whatever his name is twenty
eight years later, Like he gonna take this guy down.
I'll I'm interesting. I think a lot of people clearing
the patreon and the voter just like Michael B. So
maybe he has a favorite. Maybe he's gonna be going there.
But that's gonna decide that we're in the quarterfinals now here, right,
so it's gonna decide the semi or no, why are
we in the quarterfinals? I think so? Right? Did I
miscalculate how many round we're gonna have? This was from
Maybe I did, because it goes from let's see, so
so from to four to two and then the the one. Okay,
I think I'm good. Panic momentum. Yeah, that's gonna be interesting.
So yeah, killing Murphy versus Michael B. Jordan and then
this is another big one. This is gonna be interesting.
I'll be curious how CEO people vote. Timothy Chalomee versus
Emma Stone, two people that are currently i'd say in
their prime, putting out their best work. I'm gonna be
nominated for many Oscars around the same time each other,
all seen on the same category. But yeah, there you go.
That's yeah. Those are some tough ones. So Amma Stone
versus Tnish Shall May might will be Jordan versus Killing Murphy,
Florence p versus and Deya and Anya Taylor Joy versus
Christian Bale. That's a murders row. I wish everyone the
best of luck and voting, So yeah, we're gonna do that.
And then yeah, even though this episodes now, of course
this one, this went like, uh, quicker than I thought
I was gonna go. But I don't want to do
the Oscars prediction because that would get me to like
very long could And I said, I want to try
to see sentimental Value because it's the only one I
will say. I've seen the least amount of Oscar stuff
I think this year in a while. Usually I watch
all of them, but one, Uh, this year, I'm just behind.
I got just other stuff, other movies that I want
to see that I'm trying to catch up on. So
it's just that type of year for me. So I
want to see cinemon value because I'm stuck on the
whole supporting actor thing. So I want to see at
least if still in Scar's care because I still think
Sean Penn should win. I don't know if he's going
to win obviously, so, but Seal's been one person's been
put up there. I think I love nothing. I love
a Lordias franken Sein, but I had still put Shampin
over him. So right now I want, like I said, before.
I want to be that person where if Sean Penn
loses and it Sell wins, ah Sewan should have won.
Have you seen Cinamon Value? No, well you can't say
that right. So that's the thing where now I've seen
like him Knitt, and I've seen if I had like
Xia Kick. I'm in that camp with April where I
am actually the rose Burn camp that I would think that, uh,
we'll talk more tomorrow when we get into this. But
that thing where I want to try and least see
that one, I don't think anymore that I'll have time to.
So yeah, just just a busy, hectic year. But there
you go. That is the Best Actors Round two results,
Round three brackets. Let me know that poll will go
up later for you patrons. If you want to vote,
join patron on the one dollar tier or up and yeah,
when you hear from next I promise you I'll not
be boring.
