Speaker 1: Ello, ladies, gentlemen, and welcome back to Travis told you
December second. No December twenty second. Sorry if I just
scared you off December, say we're going back in time,
but no December twenty second, twenty twenty five. Don't worry not.
The last Trap has told you of the year. I
think maybe the last newscast peru se because as we've
talked abil before, last week is when things are closing
down and the slights of the burg just the opening
for any video listeners. I got my nice route or audio,
I got my fruit off. I have multpole lights on
them if I won't keep them on the whole time
because you watch video, it's troney, pretty annoy especially that
one where I gary see that the lamb slips popping off.
But yes, happy holidays to everyone. It is the week
of Christmas from and celebraty. So hope this will be
this' a lot would be the last time I talk
to you a lot because the next time I have
an episode, there'll be stuff pre recorded that's dropping off.
The Patriots vote about that people, but hobos stuff that
is pre record dropping. Stranger Things Part two is the
next thing you hear from me. I'm not sure when
to the first. I thought maybe Boxing day, so we'll see.
There's a chance. I don't know because it depends on
my schedule and also depends I think there was only
two episodes dropping for Stranger Things, but I guess it's three,
so that might be a little delayed. That's kind of everybody.
I mentioned, everyone's gonna be delayed watching listening to the episode.
So it's kind of a weird schedule. So that dropped
kind of whinever. I can't frost. That's why we didn't
put it on a schedule this week because other than
just Dylan doing sidequest to spek you on usual Tuesday,
everything's pre record that's dropping, and the other stuff is
kind of all over, like the Falla. We don't know
when we'll get to do that. You know, we might
do a combined episode in a couple of weeks. So
it is a crazy time here. But I hope everyone's
having good holidays. I hope everyone's gonna have some good
time in their family and friends. And I hope if
you are alone obviously again I talked to us maybe
last week, but if not, just watch The Holdovers again
this week. One of my favorite Christmas movie. It's up there.
It's a top five or now. I remember I saw
it the first time, I says, before I had no interest,
and then I saw it for the Oscars. I was like, wow,
this is probably gonna be a christmasvie, and then every
year I've watched it. It's a movie that once it finishes,
it's done. And to me, that is the perfect holiday
movie about like realistic Christmas, like the highs and lows.
How it can still be this great magical time, but man,
it could really make you feel alone and be heard.
And so people out there, if you don't got friends,
don't a family, don't things going on, find some stuff. Movies, podcast,
whether it's a or anybody else's read, a book, music,
whatever is. Find something that you enjoy. If you're working
that does suck to I'm working in Christmas teve, but
I guess what. Just tell yourself, well, you're making that
cash right now, if you were in Christmas Day or
Boxing day again, tell yourself you're making that extra cash
is Try to have pausitive outlook and if you need help,
there's always play people to reach out to and always
place to reach out to. So if you have enough
tough time the holidays, please don't keep it to yourself.
And if you are by yourself, if you're not someone
that needs to reach out, but you're just like, bum,
I'm alone for somewhere. Maybe I'm single this year. Your
maybe families all doing a trip and I'm not. Whatever,
Maybe find something, eat a bunch of fucking chocolate and stuff,
you know, like if you're on a diet or reverse too,
if you want to work, if you're on a hardcore
diet and you're like, we're gonna go do that. Just
do something that makes you have a good time and
try and enjoy. And people that are spending time with
family and friends, enjoy that because you never know. World
works in crazy sad ways. So enjoy the time you're
spending with the people you love and eativisions yourself. Enjoy
that time. So happy holidays, Merry Christmas, everybody celebrating. Uh.
But today we're talking about quite a bit of things
because we had some news kind of drop on the weekend,
and then today probably because Hollywood's about to shut down.
So we'll see next I'll do Stranger Things the part two,
and then next week I will do my film rankings.
I thought about waiting, but the problem is I don't know. Uh,
in January, we're gonna put all the survey. I don't
know if we're gonna be doing trustled you right, a
list I still might keep it going for a little bit,
I said till jam we might keep it going for
a little bit, but uh, we're gonna I'm gonna put
a survey see what people thinking if they on here.
And that's the same thing too, if you listen to
one episode here, I'd be honest. It's gonna be an
honest or that always goes out every year. We just
like to check with the listeners. Hey, what do you
feel about geek first as a whole? Right? What could
we approve upon? What could we what do you like
more of all that stuff? So Satya Tress told you
me and asked me, hey, do you listen every episode?
Is it topic debased? Is it you just listen maybe
once a month? Because it helps me e gauge too,
because obviously I got the numbers to gauge, which is
still they're doing well enough to continue. But I like
to gauge your guys's interest along with mine. So but yeah,
January is busy because we record a lot of our
ranking Golden Geeks drafts, so it's not busy as far
as content. But that's why I don't know. I was
I gonna say, oh, because I was talking about like
the movies and stuff like that and even just general life.
I think I'm like, it's seventy movies or something like that.
It's one of my lower years. But for the first
three months had the twins and you know that was busy.
So uh yeah, I probably will do the movie rankings
next week for some reason, if we got a bun
bunch of topics as things break, which I doubt over Christmas,
Like I know we talk about box office uff, but
if there's a big juicy one, or if anyone sends
in a big juicy one, then maybe we'll kick you
the week after. But I think that's what it's gonna be,
and then same thing with that week. They'll just be
the one Travis told you, because that's what New Year's Eve.
Uh where is that right there? Yeah? New ye is
a Wednesday. Yeah, maybe if some were to break, maybe
that I'd do a double up on the Tuesday. So
we'll see. That's a TVD But yeah, and same thing.
You enjoy your New Year's as well. But yeah, lots
of stuff to talk about today. We got the Odyssey trailer,
my goodness. Yes, I'd watched the sneak Peak five minute
prologue thing because I had to, and I don't have IMAX,
so I'm not gonna get it, but still watch that.
We got this Wolverine news that broke last week. We
got a cast sing for Brainiac, and we got some
box office as far as I've seen again, I even
listened to a podcast day. It's fine because I enjoy
the podcast, and I guess I should say as well too,
uh with stranger things in the next traps told you
it might be like this where I don't know if
I'll be live, and it's just the way the scheduling
works with me right now, so there's not like a
for sure like oh, I could be alive at this time,
at this moment. This is what's happening right now, so
look up for that when I am live. I'll get
back to you. So sorry, I just want to say
that and check out everything on the feed side. Quest
Game of the Year is happening. Oh anyways, that the
same with Avatar someone already had to take like, oh,
it was in trouble. It's like, I'll go over why
maybe people need to calm down again and we'll see,
we'll see things change, but we'll see. But yeah, things
on the feed side. Quest is there Game of the
Year episodes dropping and don't kind of has two weeks
of those of doing different things his Game of the
Year and then ours. So you got that going on.
You got retrospective, we re released the night before retrospective,
you got silent Ight, Deadly Night dropping this week, Minecraft
retro for you non patrons after nine. That was tons
of fun, very fun discussion the whole time. But it's
kind of the start at the beginning, first starting talking
about divorce and zodiac scigns, and then in the end
like I wish we actually did a little bit more,
but you know, the show's only two hours. We went
over that. But talking the trailer with everybody else, it
felt like we all have different likes and dislikes or
concerns or takes when it comes to Avengers Doomsday and
that trailer. Uh, but we're all concerned. That's what we
kind of came down to. It was like no one
was overly positive. So we're gonna see what happens. It's
gonna be it's gonna be a very, very fun year.
So I thank you everybody that has listened to this show.
This was a little experiment. I guess I'll say that too,
because I know sometimes at the end, peep don't here.
But thank you everybody. I started this one in September,
so thank you to everybody that listened and has joined me.
Like I said, trashold you used to be a weekly show,
that it was a monthly show, and then I was
like here and there, and then it was now twice
a week. So we'll see you guys also dictated that
as well. But I'm pretty happy with everything that's happened
as far as number why. So obviously, if this was
a complete catastrophe, I would have said, hey, it was
a good run, we're gonna stop. But people have listened.
There's been a couple months where it's been the biggest
episode of the month. Sometimes that's depended as well too,
I know perfectly, because it's like, oh, well, I'm doing
a trast told you the same day the trail leaks.
I get a buffer there, right, But people could go, ah,
you know, fuck Travis, I'll wait to the other guy's
about I try. It's my least favorite, and so I
sorry if I'm your least favorite. But whichever favor I
am first, second, fourth, third, I don't know I skipped third,
or if I don't even chart. Thank you very much
for listening. It's been successful and it's been fun. It's
been I always like doing this case, especially a live chat.
Unfortunately no live chat today, So we'll talk about these
topics and the honesty trailer that is out and it
is grandiose and it's big and kind like I think
it's what I expected now, right, I've said before, Noel's
my favorite filmmaker. This is easily you know, I'll spoil
on my list that we do the star of next year,
my most anticipated movie by like buy a Bullet, right,
and this is Nolan coming off all Penheim to me,
which is probably his best movie, not my favorite, but
his best movie. And the thing what I like about
this is because I think my only questions about this
were answered months ago. If they weren't answered months ago,
then I would have been even war shocked by this.
But uh oh sorry, frog in the throat, let me
get water here. Let's let's get rid of that problem.
I apologize. That should help me out there. When they
had confirmed there was going to be the very like mythological,
I was supernatural, but you know, creatures that story of deal,
like I don't know if there's the water dragon or whatever.
But like even the Cyclops, right, that was months ago,
that got confirmed of hey they're shooting here. They got
this guy that did this. They're doing a cyclops and
in the prologue you see a full thing of it,
and then in this you see just the head. But
to me, that's where I went, Okay, that would have
been my question before, like, oh, is he gonna go
kind of full into that, like full, you know, not operatic,
but I guess just mythical is the way to describe it, right,
Erman mythical in a way, and we've heard about that,
but this trailer shows that often I don't know the
score from the train. That prolog sounding great, it's looking great.
We got great actors. I'm like the vibes and the colors.
I'm loving the outfits and the aesthetic. I know, I
can't remember his name. The guy's like Alma Nissa or
some I don't know because I will. I'm going to
do an audio book. I'm not gonna read. I'm gonna
do an audiobook of the Odyssey because I'm somebody that
same thing when this came out and be like, you
don't know what the Odyssey was, Like I knew it
been like that whole thing. I knew of it a
little bit, but like I I kept seeing people dunk
on other people being like, well you read it in
school where I like, not in my school, like not
in Canada, right, Like i'd heard of the Okay, it's
this character is that it's that journey off you get home. Sure,
And I feel like whether it's a movie I saw
or I read it or it's been adapted multiple times
as far as even inspired by it's like great, But
I can't sit here and be like I've read the
whole Odyssey, right. Even some people have been like, oh,
well you read it, but you don't really read it
because it's a little slow like so but for me,
they didn't, they didn't teach that. So I'm looking forward to,
you know, learning all the names, pronouncing them. But yeah,
I'm gonna get the Emily Brown transcription. I think they
said that's the one that basing this movie off. I'm
gonna listen to that probably sometime in the spring. So,
uh because I do you want to kind of cross
it off. It is this kind of legendary story, right,
so that's the plant. No one's adapting it, so I
get a little more affiliated with that. But uh no,
I'm I'm excited. No matter what. You could just show
the word Odyssey, you'd be fine, because this is again
Nolan doing something he's never done before. Even with Tenet.
I know we had inception that kind of went in
that sci fi because if you look at his stories, right,
you got in Samnia, Memento, those are real life. Once
I d Dark Knight Trilogy is real life, and you
would almost think that all this guy that made Batman
realistic like in the real world, he's gonna do that
with Odyssey, Right, He's gonna adapt in a way where
let's lose the cyclops, let's lose any ce beasts, like
we're gonna try and go really a realistic story about
a guy trying to get home in a bunch of battles, right,
and the dynamics of that. So you could see that.
But I love and That's why I appreciate what they're
doing here. It's Nolan tackling something he hasn't really done
before as far as he's done sci fi, but this
swords and sandals and bigger graniose like mythological, these type
of know it's not medieval, but that sort of vibe
of larger than life scale beasts and creatures and moments,
that's something he's not done before. And it's such a challenge.
And to me, this is all aces like this is
not like I will not be non excited tail this
movie un till I see it and I go, oh,
that wasn't that good? And I don't think that's gonna
happen right, Like, there's no Nole movie I would give
below a seven. And I feel like his average for
me is probably I'll say at least a nine. But
like Prestige that's a ten to ten, begins in Dark
Knight that's a ten, Interstell has become a ten for me,
Inceptions a ten, Oppenheimer's a ten. So it's like, I think,
what Dunkirk Oppenheim or Dunkirk and tenant like there'll probably
be around the eight categories, So I don't know what
that averages and saw me. It to me is like
his weak memento. Oh, I don't know, I'd give memento
that could be a ten. I'd have to think about that.
It's been it's been a minute, but that that could
be there. But yeah, so like No One, he has
a good strike zone with me. He makes this stuff.
I like, it's the same way I understand completely where
Mike is coming from in Clay, because Mike has said, like, hey,
why aren't they doing accents? Like why are they doing this?
Like why they can't they just adapt this same way
and where we're the same way in a way where
it is like Polland and Patison have British accents, like
just let them speak in there and they're their fluent tongue,
like they can speak British. You don't have to change it.
But for me that's something where I go, oh, yeah,
I think that's kind of odd, but it's not hurting
my excitement for it. Uh, same thing as Clay, which
is where I I you know, I don't have the
same issue where he goes. I just really need And
there's a reason I'm bringing these up because I've seen
these complaints or these issues before, especially the one clays
about of hey, I really need no one to bring
the action. I need to look like this, I need
to feel like this, I need to feel grandiose, where
a lot of Nolan's actions is a little jump cuddy,
a little shaky and not in a good way, a
little close quarters. But for me, again, I don't watch
Nolan movies for that, and even the stuff in the
Dark Knight trilogy, for me, it all works because it's like,
that's the way that Batman fights. It is like in
a real world sort of setting, right, and like I'm saying,
you can still make that look I guess more appealing
to the eye. But so I get that if somebody,
if that's someone's critique of it, I get that, and
I'm not looking for I need to be like, hey, Nolan,
just do that, like if you if you do a
amazing like if you do a set piece that we
took I was one of the greatest action set action
set pieces of all time. I'm not gonna be like,
don't do it. But at the same time, I understand,
like Nolan brings other things to the table that I love, right,
so and save with the costumes, right, like that's something
I really don't care about, right, I understand more in
a sense, and even that I've grown to it a
little bit because I remember when I watched Bohemian Rhapsody,
and that was one that took a lot of liberties
with the story, right, and so it was the bigger
Queen family, like like, I don't know that, I don't
know about this. But then eventually it's like, you know what,
if I do want that, you gotta watch a biography,
right or sorry, a documentary of that. Right, they are
adapt things they're doing movie Now. It's granted, I still
think you do certain things better and make that where
it's like, oh, this is already in the movie, just
you know, spruce us up a little bit, X, Y
and Z and you're good to go. But that doesn't
always happen, right, So with the costumes or anything not
looking accurate, I don't really care about that at all.
It's a fucking movie, you know, Like, same thing. The
guy that's was bringing up, the guy that staff he's playing.
He looks cool. Let him look cool, Like, I don't
care if his costume doesn't look like what it is. Like,
it's an adaptation, right, It's just like and I was
just thinking about that the other night too, where it's
just so funny we're watching Batman Returns with the kids
and everything. I think they're old enough now and they're
fine for the most part, and I think the other
stuff that they don't get kind of flies over their
head or that could be risky. But I feel and
this is where you go in stages of your life,
right where you watch Batman Returns and the Dark Knight
comes out and it's adaption bit. It's this more gritty
adult and you look at that. I remember thinking like, ah,
like Tim Burns, like there's fucking penguins with their rockets
in their hand. You have to done. That's a credit
to probably, you know, James Gunn Superman and maybe it
was bad movie he's gonna try and do. But now
I watch Batman Returns, I'm like, man, I miss some
of this. How like goofy It could be in sort
of it's goofy, but it's played straight. But I miss
it's like a oh, we're we're not trying to take
this serious to put in the world real world. It's like, yeah,
Batman's finale in Returns is he's fighting a bunch of
penguins with rockets on their heads. It's like, you know what,
this is great? And again credit, I feel like God
was trying to do that was a Superman, right. I
have other issues with that, but just more than same
thing it was. That's been some people's knockins that movie too, right,
It's like, oh, well, the first movie was Tim burn
and a Batman movie, right, where the second movie was
just a Tim Byrd movie. But now as time goes
on we get more adaption to these characters and stories.
It's like I could take more of Oh, this is
a Tim Burdon movie. Right. There's so many projects where
you can watch them now in the combook genre and
they just feel I won't say lifeless, but there's no flavor.
There's no sauce on it, right. And that's where it's like,
for whatever faults you can feel about Batman Returns, it's
like that's a Tim burd movie, right. The same way
the Dark Knight's at Christopher Nolan movie. So he when
I'm getting The Odyssey done by Christopher Nolan, I want
that to be a Christopher Nolan movie, right. I don't
want him just be well, the costumes look like this,
and well, we gotta everyone's expecting this action set piece
to be like this. I want to look specifically like
something Scott, did you know? It's like no, no, no,
like do what you want. I trust you, You're you're
hot shit right now of course, but no, I'm very,
very excited in this trailer. Just it's one of those
where nothing could really get me more excited. I don't
think right, as I said before, I think the only
thing would have been excited if we didn't know he
was like having the Cyclops in here and you saw like,
oh fuck. But we've had time to process that. So No,
this looks great. I think everyone looks great acting wise,
and they look I don't know the stories, but I
just feel like the archetypes are playing. Look right, Damon
looks right as the odiss is right, odiss is I think,
no life chat to fucking correct me. But I know
I always because it being Odyssey and Odyssus or whatever,
what the hell I me? And I feel like that
sounds like it's hurt my mouth. Let's see Matt Damon.
I put Matt Damon, Matt Damon, what the hell is
he playing Odysseus? Right? That sounds better. I think that's right.
Odysseus looks great there. So yeah, I just I can't
be any more excited for this movie other than once
we get to like a couple of weeks before, you know,
but even then, like no trailer. This is one of
these movies like I could have saw nothing. We're Oppenheimer.
I fully admit I was not that jazzed about. I
was like, this is not a topic that I you know,
I'm not like ugh, but I was just like he
didn't excite me. And it's like what Nolan'll do next?
A biography and the guy I made the h BOM's
like all right, And then when it was gonna be
you know, more room to be Oscar baby and black
and white, I'm like, I just like, is he gonna
kind of make this very safe movie? And it wasn't
all I shouldn't expect it, but you never know. Sometimes
when people go, oh, well, I gotta go for the Oscar,
so let's make it this type of way. But Nolan, Nah,
he's he's my fucking guy. Man. I I can't wait
like this guy. He like, I can't a wait to say,
even like twenty years from now, where he's doing, like
this is his filmography of the past, what he's at,
ten films, whatever it is, from Insomnia or even following
to now, it's like, God, you can saw it now
and be one of the greatest all time. I guess.
Now some people might argue, oh, he could get older
and that would take down the thing. But no, like
there's some people that make some stuff that not is
good and they're older. But then you have people say,
like Martinscers says, he's putting out great stuff. Right. So, No,
this trail is fantastic. The shots are fantastic, the vies fantastic.
I think this is a trailer that doesn't have to
be like I tolt last week with a hook. The
hook is from Christopher Nole and it looks epic. You're in,
You're done, so there you go. So uh And Mike
did ask which I feel like, I'm sorry, I should
have looked this up before because I feel like it's
white with Westerns, this genre. Because he asked me in
honor of honesty, what are your favorite historical epics and
what are our historical period you like to see a
big name director tackle next. I really, I really don't know,
like I was, I don't know why history was never
a big thing for me. And this is the thing
where like I can say I love the Western genre,
but I know there's still tons of westerns I need
to really go back and watch, right, So, like I
like the idea that I'm not because I know some
people are not really my thing here, right, but like
even like looking at this best of like list right here,
like Gladiator, Okay, that's great, Sparacus, yeah, I've seen about once.
Same with Ben Herr, I've seen like once. They're kind
of last Mohicans. I guess King of Heaven, Braveheart, like
seven Samurai people getting done. Kirk, I don't know about.
I guess I guess it kind of cants. But like
Shin's like here's the thing, there's all these movies on
that listen. Like That's why I couldn't like really answer
it because like I don't think I have a favorite,
yet I enjoy them, like I was on the Gladiator
retro reviews because the baby, but like I enjoyed Gladiator
a lot, I enjoyed Troy a lot. I think Toy
is like all kind of more on the like cheesier side, right,
Like I like swords and sandals all this stuff, But
I don't think I have a favorite. But I should
give a rewatch to uh Ben her and Lawrence of
Arabia It's been and Spartacus, like these are ones I
saw when like sparkas I saw my dad when we're
in a trailer, like it was a rainy night. We
have a trailer in the States and it's like a
rain night, nothing to do because it's kind of like
a camping trailer. Uh, it's a cat, it's a cabin trailer,
it's a it's a hybrid sort of thing. But I
remember watching Spartacus and still remember being like young enough
to like enjoy the wonder but not maybe old enough
to appreciate it. But it's still old enough to understand, like, Okay,
it's not like a I was like a board of it,
So I need to give that even stuff like Clash
Ratha titanzos on the chi said, But like I like
the genre, I just don't know if I have like
all favorite even looking at these, like, I don't think
i'd want to say Gladiated because I haven't seen it
in a long time, so I should probably, you know what, Mike,
I'll probably put that as a Everreen topic and maybe
I'll ask you guys some of your favorites and I'll
do a Maybe I'll try to do a ranking. I'm
still working on my PTA ranking, and then I want
to do Garret del Tooral ranking, and I might even
do that for cast I guess is Evergreen topics, but uh,
maybe not. They're kind of not as time I should
have I should do this where I should watch them
before and then do it on the lead up too. Honestly,
that was my mistake. So maybe if I'm still doing
this twice a week, I'll make that adjustment. So I
like a lot of them might but I don't think
I have a favorite, like even Brave Heart like, I
don't know. I'd have to I'd have to really think
about that, and I think i'd have to rewatch them all.
So I like the genre. I'm always like, I guess
even like three hundred like and even like one. I
don't think it's that sort of way. But if they're
kindying like Northmen, that's one that's like that's really high
up there. So I've just never thought about because it's
like a genre I like, and there's not too much
of it nowadays, but I don't think I have like, oh,
that's my favorite this right, like Westerns, even though it's newer.
My favorite Western is No Country for Old Men, you know.
And maybe people might not count that because it's newer
and it's not the exact but to me, it checks
off all the boxes of that, right, you know, Like
favorite Samurai is a classic here cows are like seven Samurai,
you know, like, but then I don't like, I feel
like I haven't seen many great samurai movies in the
past little bit. So yeah, I have to some of
those genres. I need to go back and reads and
watch them all so or watch like the bigger header,
the heavy hitters, you know. So let's see what else?
So we have the brainy casting, which there's not much
for me to add here other than you know, it
wasn't these rumor names of Matt Smith and uh what
was it, Matt Smith, Sam Rockwell, Bautista and somebody else,
but like a gun said that he wanted to announce
it because he didn't want to get out there. Someone
asked HI about those names. He said, no, none of
those are completely uh, he said, none of those names
are true at all. But then he also said, like,
I don't think any of them even addition, So it's
kind of weird because like, well you would know if
they auditioned, Man, it's your movie, I would hope you know, right,
But yeah, I like, I gotta try to find this
guy's name here, right, Lars Editinger, Eddieinger, I think, but
it's gonna call him Lars didn't, So I I didn't
know of this guy when when I saw it and
then I searched it, I was like, oh, I've seen
him in this and that I just watched. Jay Kelly
was like, oh right, he is the biker Like okay,
nothing like I saw him in whatever No Bombacks movie
was before. That's like okay, yeah, Like I kind of
know of this guy. And then some clips were going
around the classic thing of like we're gonna get a
crazy brainiac, We're gonna have the best comic film, and
maybe that'd be the case. I don't know, but it's interesting,
right because I think there's a not a pro or
con but like a'l say from a public standpoint where
for me, as long as he's great cool, I would
have liked Batista because I just don't want Batista get
type cast and a similar thing. But it's fine. Hopefully
there's maybe like he goes straight downline right, uh, Matt Smith,
I'd said before that that would be a kind of
a dreamcast. And at the same time, we've seen him
do a lot of things similar lately. And then Sam
and the guy from Northmen were like, yeah, okay, I
could see the angles Claire so I was more a
fan of. But this guy, I see the clips. He
has a look right, shave his head, he's gonna look
I feel like he looks like that. His voice, he's
got a good voice for Rainiac. And I know that's
the argument, right of on the pro side, you don't
need a star because they're gonna be covered in mocap
and makeup, and like there is some truth to that,
but still people like you know, it wouldn't help if
so and so was playing Brainiac, right, And that's why
you gotta look at it where I think there's a
casting a side. I'm sure he'd a great gun and
his team has usually been great for the casting. Think
he's gonna kill I really don't have any worries there,
wait and see what happens, Like look at the guy
I can't remember. I never pronounced his name, but the
guy in Guardians three had never heard of him, and
then obviously peace Maker came out on oh okay, but
never heard of him. He did a great job as
a high evolutionary, right, So it's like, I'm not really
concerned there the difference. I guess maybe not the difference tho, right,
because I was gonna say that was a sequel and
the third one this is a sequel, but it is
not as establish as Guardians because Guardian that was the
ending of a trilogy and they had also been in
multiple interest movies right where this is number two. So
that is the i'd say on the potential negaive side
where we talked about before just on After nine when
we were talking about the trailer of Avengers and how
you know, we were talking about Hempsworth, right because we're saying, okay,
Evan's coming back, does that add a certain amount of
box office? And it does downy as we're saying Hempsworth
and when he and I was like yes, and I
feel like you can have it in tears maybe as
far as people have a certain buffers. And that's where
for me, this guy he doesn't have a buffer because
no one knows him right now. Granted sometimes that doesn't work.
You could get a big name and doesn't change anything
at all. But the pro is, hey, this guy newer
acting and breakout and probably's not gonna run out of
the budget, right I'm not. I've see him saying Matt
Smith or Sam Rockwell would have been. But we all
know this guy Lars, who doesn't really have a big profile,
definitely probably cost cheaper. So you could get him cost cheaper,
have some of that's doing great performance and Bob's runkle,
and you just selling other people, right. But then there
is the reverse of when you get these franchises and
you get like, oh, this person's playing the film. That
sometimes can add a boost to it, right, that can
make people excited. That's another buffer perhaps, So I don't
know what the how it's gonna be. I think for me,
I've said this before. Uh yeah, Like I said, I
have to wait and see how Supergirl was. But the
other thing that factors in here is Wicked. And I
know that's not the exact same because it's two years
apart and that's a full thing of a story. But
I would have said before, and I did on this
cast many times, and I didn't know how I felt
about Wicked part one to part two, but part two
I at least thought it's at least going to do
better than Wicked part or Wicked one, if not be
on par And if I look up right now, it's
pretty much slow down for the box office. Wicked for good?
What is that? And Mike, I'm not trying to use
Wicked as like a whipp book because I know you're
like Wicked and I didn't for or Wicked too, and
I didn't. It's more just the sense that I was surprised. Again. Yeah,
it's at four eighty five, right, and it's probably gonna
slow down. Lots of more competition. The word of mouth,
even though we looked at last year stood a good
amount of competition. That's where for me, I would have
just told you right there, because that's why I stopped myself.
And I'm using Wicked as example. I would have said, Hey,
I think that I gotta fix my fucking sand hat.
That's what I think. I think that, oh, Superman Man
up tomorrow, that I at least make what the first
one made. I don't know that because the thing I've
said before is will the idea there's a pro and
a con of getting three Superman projects in a row.
Either people are hypen yeah, bring it on, or it's
Superman again. To me, I've said before multiple times, I
wouldn't be doing that. I would have at least put
out a space or I'd gun do something different and
then get mad tomorrow in twenty twenty eight, especially, we
don't know how Netflix is gonna go, We don't know
Zazo's gonna go, we don't know what's to happen with
these contracts. Batman coming out and Superman come out the
same year. I think Batman's gonna probably kick its ass.
I won't say kick it's ass, I guess, but I
would heavily been on Batman doing better, even though that's
been a longer wait, right, and that could be the
proof there could be a longer wait and then that
does bear. So I don't know. I really don't want to.
I think Supergirl, We're gonna see how that does and
if that kind of underperforms, that to me is going
to because I'm trying to think of what underperform would be.
So what do I think Supergirl's gonna make like long
term box off tracking busy summer. Superman made six hundred something, right,
let me get the full. Uh, let's say Superman twenty
twenty five, just to get the full box office. So
I know, six eighteen. I'm gonna say I'm expecting some
people might think this is a disappointment. I'm gonna say safely,
I'm expecting Supergirl to be four hundred, right, because Fantastic
four did over five hundred. I think Thunderbolts did four
hundred something, right, three eighty two? Fuck, and then Brave
New World. Is that that's the four fifty one, right,
I'm pretty sure here, yeah, four fifteen. So even then,
I think it's not out of the round possibility to
say Supergirl's gonna make around four hundred. I think if
it makes five hundred, you're laughing. If it makes the
same as Superman or more, you're doing a fucking backfoop.
I don't think that's happening. I don't think this trailer.
I was kind of surprised. I like the trailer, and
most people have talked to we didn't talk about an
after nine. It feels like most people have talked to
are very kind of mail on it, which is crazy
because like, I'm somebody that hasn't loved the DC, right,
so I'm somebody that should be set up BI like, Ah,
don't know about this, but I still trust that it's
gonna be a very good a very good time. I mean,
I trust it's gonna be a good movie at least, right,
But I'm surprised how people are pretty lukewarm on that trailer.
So to me, I think it should make about four hundred.
I don't know what the budget is. I think if
you get to that under I'll say under even three
point fifty, that's when you start to go, eh, the
Superman buffer's not really there, right, I think four hundred
or higher the Superman buffer is kind of there. And
then manag tomorrow, I'll I'll have a better gauge on right,
So with this guy, this is just pure quality and
maybe you'll get an act other actors. This is just
a pure quality higher no budget. But at the same time,
that's where you do lose that you might lose, like
I guess they just really have to emphasize to me
the new thing is. I do like this idea. I've
always said it sounds like the idea is it's more
from Lex's point of view. So all I like that idea.
It is like kind of a villainesque movie and the
buddy team up, and then you really need to emplify emphasize. Okay,
this isn't a big actor, but this threat is something
big and something special. Brainiac is a very special Superman character.
If there's a reason why next to Lex people have
been wanting him for decades. It almost happened, And I
guess I should say that James Gunna put this news
out and confirmed it. Right, He's he's the source. So people,
it almost happened Superman four, it almost happened in multiple
times in two thousand, almost happened in the Zach Snyer era,
finally happening. Big thing for a gun to cross off,
So I the penential's there. It's just also you're asking
me with the box that's gonna be like in two years,
who fucking knows? Who knows this movie's gonna go to
the theater. It's like I would assume so, but it's
just like you never know, right, So this is super
long term tracking. But that's where I'd say this guy
for I trust James Gonling casting, so for me personally
doesn't do anything, but I go, okay, I think that
that's probably a good choice because company thought that for
other side, it maybe doesn't give the box office a buffer,
but can stave on the budget possibly as well too, right,
which could help. And that's where all these movies got
a budget issue. So that's that's where they gotta watch after.
So we'll see what happens there. This happened last week,
big hubbaloo. I don't think it's anything yet other than
kind of a no dad, no matter what. Right last week,
Marvel file or trademark for a bunch of things that
are concerning pretty much making a Wolverine film. Right, that
does not mean anything. They could be fine on trademark
just thinking about it and never do that, right, It's
just to get some things X Y and Z. Who knows.
Maybe after Secret Wars we had a comic con and
here's that slight and look there's Wolverine. I don't think.
And let's people thought because Hugh Jackman, right, And Hugh
Jackman also said something like, well, I don't think I'm
playing this character for me with the whole Wolverine thing,
I am in the camp because we talked about you
go back on after nine. IM said this manytime. I
said this before it was even fucking rumored. I'm in
the camp that Hugh Jackman is staying around at least
for a little while for Secret Wars. Don't know whether
that's a side project him in his own universe, don't
know if he's the mainline X Men whatever it may be. Right,
this news does not change that at all, as far
as me being more like I could come here and
be like, oh, hashtag trass told you know, because it's
a Wolverine solo movie, it's not Wolverine solo movie starring
Hugh Jackman. Right, I've always thought that it's gonna be.
But in either scenario, you could tell me, Hey, after
Secret Wars, we're doing a Wolverine movie with Hugh Jackman. Okay, cool,
Let's see what happens it's first time the MC cool
or Hey, we're rebooting, but we want to do a
Wolverine movie and it's not Hugh Jackman's a new actor, Okay, cool.
I think it's risky. I think it's risky to go
right away with that after he was just back. We've
talked about it before. Every time Hugh comes back, it
puts a little more I'd say time on the clock
for people accepting a new Wolverine, because the next thing
you don't want is someone coming in and doing an
all narrow right with Han solo right in my opinion,
where people rejected it and it was felt like a
big step down. You don't want that, So for me,
you gotta wait. But they haven't waited in the keep
bringing them back. But if it's a new one, that
makes sense, because I think we've all said I think
people that enjoy sorry the X Men comics and animated series,
I can speak from that. I think I'm one of
the best sources to do it right. I can't claim
him the biggest Wolverine fan of all time. Haven't read
all the stories, No, that's what I've read the most
of Marvel next spider Man. But Wolverine's my favorite Marvel character.
He's in my top ten. Love the guy I named
a child, I named you know, Logan. Luckily unisex name
didn't get any boys, so she got that. She loves
being named Wolverine. Great right, love that character. Love Hugh
jackmans that if they want to keep going, I've always said,
I'm not in the camp where I think you got
to go. I know people, oh, I want new Wolverine.
I understand that completely right, But I'm also for me
in the perspective of if he wants to do it,
and he's perfect and we love him, let him do
it while he can, in my opinion, because there's going
only give me one time. Hugh Jackman's doing this right,
anything can happen. The guy could fucking pass away in
a set like I'm not trying to sound more of it,
but fuck Like, look, but I'm Chadwick right, like, there
always will be time for another Wolverine. Someone might be
mad because maybe they're gonna recast with Wolverine when I'm
sixty or seven. I don't get to see it, but
guess what the rest of the people will. So I've
always been that camp that I'm personally fine with it,
not sure I'll work in the universe, but I've always
said that I don't think they're gonna do the Gene
Scott Wolverine dynamic. If you look at the Spider Man trilogy,
they did a lot of things up until No Way Home,
but even that's different. They did a lot of things
that the Sony trilogies did not do with Tobin Andrew.
They didn't want to do Gobblin again, they didn't want
to do doc Off to the point where they brought
those characters back in the actors. I think the same
way that we've heard rumors that hey sounds like mister
Sinister is a villain of X Men movie one, right?
Why because they never got to mister Sinister, right, And
there's even been like, oh, I don't know if Wolverine's
gonna be in it. I don't know if Magneto's gonna
be in it, or at least a villain. They like
trying to do a different method the same way comic
books do, right, So, no matter what with h or not,
I did not think Wolverine would be there. And I
still think, like, let's say it's Huge, or let's say
it's Wolverine even played by Henry cav let's go Henry
call right. I don't think now they would get them
because they did that cameo. I was always fine with
Henry Cavill actually becoming Wolverine. I think, look at garylth
he do a great job. So let's say they go
with that right, and it's now Henry. He's gonna take
over the Calvary. He's gonna be the new present day Wolverine.
I think whatever actor, even if it's a no name actor,
you can do a Wolverine movie. I said this before
or after I said said this before. So anyone that's
uh new, it's new to you, any to them that's
long term. I'm sorry to repeat myself, but it's gonna
happen on trest told you, guys, just show it me.
They are going to go with their big heavy hitters
after Secret Wars. It's gonna be Avengers, X Men, Spider
Man for Doctor Strange, if Black Panther Black Panther three.
Obviously we'll see what happens after the fact, but I
think they will recast get new Jachalla. They are going
to go with the proven Kamanities. Anyone that's not proven
that's iffy or has had a failure a Llah, Captain
Marvel to the Marvels a Llah, even Thunderbolts like the
Disney plusures that even to unfortunately Captain America. That's why
I think Steve Rogers gets the steal back and fuck,
it could even be Chris Evans as Captain America. And
because he's confirmed to be back, right, I think anybody
they want to get back, and if they want to
also come back the actors, they will do it. But
even that Wolverine is a a tear character. If you're
making the mount rushmore. As far as the most popularity
from let's say the movie era, there's no way it's not.
To me, it's not of MSU, just of movie era.
For Marvel, it's Ironman, Cap, Wolverine, Spider Man. That's the four.
I think Deadpool is sitting there as a five. People
could also argue I think if Chadwick was still live,
Black Panther could be on the flour. You could even
maybe make that argument too for the inspiration, right, But
to me, I'm definitely saying Wolverine's there. I would say
it's Ironman and Wolverine, Spider Man always big films, but
more research in these past few years, I would say.
And then maybe even Cap has wanted to take Cap off.
Sure I wouldn't because I feel like he kind of
was the heartbeat of the MSU, But I could see
being Cap being fourth make an argument for Deadpool or
make an argument for Black Panther right, some other characters,
but to me, Wolverine is an a tier character. So
I can see a universe where, hey, we're gonna do
the X Men movie, give Scott Jean, Storm Beast, all
that jazz their time to shine. No, it doesn't become
the Wolverine show, right, and then we're gonna make our
cake and eat it too, because over here's a Wolverine movie,
and know what happens you build that Avengers feeling that
when Wolverine and X Men get together, it's that much
bigger and you can still push Wolverine out. Or that
could be a test to where, okay, what if they
put a Wolverine movie with a new actor and it
does like eight hundred million dollars. They're gonna try with
other characters that maybe aren't a tier but as long
as you get the right team behind it and the
right budget can be successful. Right, And I still think
it would be like a tier characters Storm, et cetera. Right,
Like I feel, and including myself, many others feel the
same way. To me that it is kind of a
bummer the route we're going. As far as MSU, I
hope they find a way to get back to the
perfect balance of Phase one to three, where hey, we
got a lot of eight tier characters, but we also
got some CD tier characters that we want you to
give a show on, right, And they had to do
that because they didn't have Spider Man, they didn't have
F four, they didn't have X Men. Now they do,
and that's my worry where it's like, ah, let's just
rely on that, but you still can't fully rely on that,
right because before Dnpool Wolverine, there was not a single
that's just even in the heyday, and not a single
X Men movie that was a billion dollar movie. So
it's not just like everyone just thinks it's like an
easy money card, it's not. I brought this up with
that for the fact that only made half a billion,
you know, now that is still good, but still in
the sense of I think a lot of people thought
it was gonna do bigger. In the Disney Plus air
the lead the lowest debut for an MCU movie. Just
because we love them doesn't mean the general audience feels
that way, right. I think the MSU and Secret Wars
in dun Day is going to do a good job
of rehabbing the X Men to making you feel like
they are important, right, just like they did with Spider Man.
But it's not a guarantee of work still needs to
be put in right, So yeah, we will see and
like do I want Yeah? Like either way, I think
there's potential of If you're doing a Hugh Jackman Wolverine
movie in the MCU, there's potential there. Whether you're doing
a full actually old man logan, whether you're adapting other stories,
whatever it may be, there's potential there. If you're setting
up a new actors Wolverine, there's potential there too. You
can give him your origin that you want for the
mc You can tie him in which way you could
literally do what people said about Oh imagine if you
had a scene with him and Steve Rodgers, like you
can put him in the past. Like. Both have the
potential as far as a interesting story, and both have
the potential of a lot of money. Hugh Jackman's Wolverine
has more potential, but still potential nonetheless right as a
bigger character and they could start establishing that And I
like that. For the X Men, I do want a movie,
even two movies of the X Men alone, Wait till
Wolverine I've even said this before with my favorite characters
is because with Wolverine, like obviously he's gone the most,
like he was the main character the X Men movies
and then he got his spin off movies, right, and
then with Batman, how many Batman movies have you gone?
I've said this before where if I was in the DCU,
I know you want to get at him there and
he you want to pump up those numbers. But I
would do a couple chapters, even at the end of
chapter two. But do adjusting movie do without Batman? Make
everyone really care about Superman and Wonder Woman and Flash
and martiall Man Hunter and Green Lantern. Everyone's always gonna
care about Batman, Batman and spider Man. Uh, you know,
maybe over in one day, maybe even now. Those are
characters that when the connected universes they ever die, they say,
both model dc You know what, this isn't working. People
don't want this to just want single stories characters along.
We're going back to that. In the world of a
bunch of bombs, Batman and Spider Man will be successful,
even if it's to lesser degree than they used to be.
People will still come out for those characters. Because I
think obviously the most popular, and I think lots of
times like I think there's arguments for other characters, but
I think the main reason Batman and Spider Man, it's
not like a hot take, are the most populars because
people can see themselves in them, right, Spider Man, like,
I'm talking for the vast majority of people at one
point in their life or even now, they've been broke,
they've been broken up, they've been down and just feel
like everything's against them, but they still want to try
and be a good person. And there's a fun element
of like everyone's young, and when you see Spider Man
a lot of times when you're younger, it's that wish fulfillment, right, like, oh,
I'd be a kid teenager with the secret data. And
then Batman is the exact opposite. You can't picture yourself
as a billionaire. You can't picture yourself as a ninja
that climbs to a mountain, that fights dozens of people,
that's driving the batmobile, that's always pain finding these enemies.
But you know, you can deal with whether it's actually
happened to you or if it's just a friend or
losing anybody. Everyone knows what the loss of pain is
and everyone would know, even if they've not felt that,
what you would feel someone was taken from you, right,
everyone can know about Man, if my significant other, loved
one was murdered hurt, how I feel and how would
that change me? That's where Spirement and Batman just prevail
because they have very and many other characters had that too, right,
But even Soupman, that was the whole argument of oh,
you know, being polite or being kind is the new
punk rock, and people go, that's not the case anymore.
People are assholes, you know, people don't try to be
kind to people anymore. Right, that's a harder character to
get past nowadays. It's like in wrestling, it's hard to
be a good guy now and it was a bad guy.
It's easy to be a bad guy. Everyone likes being
the bad guy, doing fun, healish stuff, getting cheered good guy,
being a white meat baby face is just I want
to do good. That's tough, right, So we'll see. But yeah,
either way, that does like Hugh Jackman of all, who knows.
But if you were to tell me, hey, there's gonna
be there after Secret Wars are gonna give you a
six to eight film Slater plan. Would Wolverine beyond that,
I would say yes, I could see that either way,
whether it's Jackman or not Jackman, I wouldn't say one
hundred percent yes, I'm gonna make a pizza bed on it.
But I feel pretty strong. Again, that's a tier character.
You got the game coming out. I think that'll be huge.
So yeah, we'll see. And then so the box office.
To end off this episode, we got the top five here,
all new movies except for number five here, but we
have Avatar, Fire and Ash came in an eighty nine
million domestic David, I think it's like that religious Studio
right now or whatnot made twenty two million, so we
ow pretty good. I wonder if the budget is on David.
The housemade made, Oh no, I did this terrible split
screen thing that Chrome has. Now it's not awful, but
I just didn't want them most s. I was like,
the house Bay made about nineteen million, has a bunch
of thirty five million, so I'll have to see with
all this, right, even SpongeBob of fifteen million, But I'd
say with housemade Zutopia which made Zutopia came in at
fifth place, so I guess sorry, I should go backtrack.
Avatar number one, David number two, house May number three,
Spongeboul number four, Utopia number five with fourteen million finite
and Friday's which is already gonna be on VLD this
week at six, Wicked for Good at seven and drop
from third place, Drownda at eight, Hamnet at nine. Oh
there you go, hand and I was breaking a billion
or breaking a million, and then Mario Supreme at eight
hundred and seventy five, so obviously lower than the other ones.
After I came in and ate everything up, but with
everything with how Wicked's gonna finalize? How Zutopia if it's
gonna be the biggest North American movie of the year.
Even Housemaid right came in at nineteen million, the budgets
about thirty five. Most times you would say, you know,
that's probably gonna disappoint and not make a profit, right,
because most of the times you make your money in
the opening weekend. There are cases like Cinners this year
that didn't happen, But majority of the time, I guess,
say nine to ten times you make the bulk of
your money opening weekend, and it starts to drop, right,
but much like with Avatar and everyone talking about already, Oh,
it's disappointment all it's a low percentage. I hate to
be a broken record. I'm gonna take a drink of water.
I'm gonna break that record. Cool h two. Christmas season
is a crazy time. You never can account for how
many people are alone or how many families wanted to
see movies. Christmas tracking is all the place. We talked
about this with the last two Avatars. Both times had
a thing of Avatar. One came out, Oh all this
money all these years, What a disappointing opening weekend. Then
it had legs Avatar two. These projections all came below projections.
I guess people don't actually want to go see it.
That bad became the third biggest movie all the time.
I've already seen it, of Oh, Avatar thirty percent. I've
always said, I've never said it was gonna be Avatar two.
I definitely understood people's takes, including Taylor, as far as
people being less excited, even myself, right like Dylan and
I didn't see it, and I have no interest in
seeing you at that RUNTI right, I like it enough,
but I don't want to spend three and a half
hours on something I like enough, especially where other than
Kirkle and Taylor, everybody I've talked to says this is
like the weakest of the three right for the most part. Actually,
you know, like it's Mike here also did he put
number one there? But he's like a slight thing. But
still I don't It's not a way where even people
like I think Mike would tell me, Hey, Trevis, how
do you feel about those? And you go, yeah, I
don't think like you're gonna love it, right. It'd be
different if you were like, hey, you know, I know
one and two are really but the visuals and the
story which is kind of you know, repeating some stuff
but pretty basic. But the third one, massive leaping story.
You gotta see this, right. I didn't hear enough of that,
and maybe enough people are like that. But another scenario
we've talked about before, Mary Poppins au coleman A Cooman's
coming out at for Justice League. Everybody, I think, even
tracking up until it got really close, we're like, oh,
it's gonna finish. Third Mary Poppins kind of fell to
its knees and buckled bumblebe did okay and Aukaman became
the diggo the biggest the biggest DC movie of all time,
not the biggest DCEU movie. The biggest DC movie all
time is Aucaman Lean's Gentleman as of right now this recording,
you know all Helmet Mole and I love that great
fun time movie Christmas. Tracking and box office, you can't
really predict the same thing. The Housemaid opens up at
nineteen million, usually be like, ah, it's probably gonna get
to thirty five to forty, not be a big profit.
The next few weeks, po'll be like, let's see the Housemaid,
Let's see something that's not a thriller, romantic, sexy boom.
Same thing of Avatar or is Utopia or even Wicked.
Maybe wait gets a little push. I don't think Wicked's
gonna I think story Mike, that's trailing behind because I
feel like the word of out there. I think is
Utopia is taking over. We talked about before Ray because
what was h inside out Cho's box office? I can't
remember to do. It's it's weird. Sometimes you search a
movie and it gives you the box office like right
on the side. Then other times it's like, won't you
have to click on the woo compute page. So one
point six, so one point six nine, let's say it's
one point seven. I think right now the tracking and
again could be even bigger. The tracking for Utopia is
supposed to be somewhere between like one point four to
one point five. And I did say that right when
we did the z Utopia box office episode. I was, Okay,
it's gonna perform like Inside Out two, or is gonna
perform like Muhana, which both them out perform what I
think everyone thought they're gonna do, right, even at a billion.
I think most people kind of didn't think mo Wana
two was gonna hit a billion as quick as it did, right,
especially with the quality of it. And I said when
that opening weekend it performed much more like Inside Out too,
I think in some markets even be maybe even domestically. Right.
So if you were to tell me that it's gonna
beat Inside Out right now with what it's at, because
I think it's efficiy at, I think it's like almost
one point three, right, one point three. So, got a
bunch of showings in my theaters, like a bunch of showings,
uh one point two sets, So yeah, it's to be
probably one point three by this weekening before that, right,
especially with Christmas, so you can tell it as a
shot to make I don't think it will. I think
Inside Out two is still gonna reign supreme, but it
could make another four hundred million next a little bit
with Christmas, like look at another big case. Mike brought
this up in our an Afternoon and the chat too.
Lion King, right, Lion King. Last year, the first live
actual one comes out, makes a billion massive movie. You
know some Peel's a big anime movie all time. I'm
not counting there, but just massive. Right number two comes out,
and I felt the same thing about like a four wiki,
where like I don't think people are digging this, I
don't people want this, And that opening weekend made it
look like yarned and it looked like Sonic three was
gonna beat it, and it's like wow, okay, but then
what happened? That movie through December and January kept chugging along.
So when I see all this stuff and even podcasters
listened to like, oh rose off the pud, I've always
said that, Yes, I think Avatar three was gonna do
worse than two because two did have that it's been
a long time since you've been to bendor, right, Like,
now you've established the people that see once movie year
or big fans, they're the ones gonna keep coming out.
And again it's still been a couple of years since,
but still they will have lesser degrees than less. You
make one that is so far superior. But I still
feel confident with me. I said it'd probably be about
six hundred million less, and it could be about that, right,
So I'm not on like I think people are calling
this as far as they're almost saying that it had
the thirty three, the thirty percent drop and that it's
not gonna have those good legs. I am not willing
to jump on that bandwagon. Is it impossible? No, nothing's impossible.
To me. The biggest case since COVID. There's been tons
of times been surprised. We talked about The King earlier.
Oppenheimer that thing almost making a fucking billion dollars. And
I always don't need to care about Barbara and Heimer. Yes,
Barbara Heimer for sure, but people still need to want
to see that second movie, which the second movie is
a three hour biography that sometimes back Why about the
bomb being married? I thought that was gonna be one
of Nolan's worst movies, like financially right, but it wasn't.
It performed like a blockbuster even though it was an
Oscar movie. That's the perfect rest be right. So to me,
nothing surprised me. If you were to tell me, I
still would say I would pizza at anybody, and I'd
say after I still can make a billion because what
it made three hundred What is it out of Fichy
right now for its opening weekend? Three hundred and forty
seven million? Right, let's say it stopped. Now, let's go
to the nurs top movies twenty twenty five. Let's just
see what is it now? Because oste it's a lower
year box office wise, right right now, right, We've talked
about this before and I'm gonna go just domestic, right,
so let's take that out. Just domestic here, do Okay,
let's take a look here. One second, my internet is
being slow north making. Oh it is domestic. There you go, Okay,
So that doesn't help me. I wanted worldwide. Let's see
worldwide here, okay, talk to twenty movies at the box
office world wide. Okay, Hey, let's get this. Let's go
in here just being sure has not me to before
I went there. Okay, So after our finished at three
hundred and forty seven this weekend, right, so and let's
let's just I'll take out the the international movies. You know,
maybe I won't because after it has a big international run.
So let's do that, right, So needs at two as
I said before, two billion dollars. So that's at two billion,
so I'm gonna go all the way. We have Zutobia
two at one point two and then Leland Stitch at
one billion. Right, so we dropped down to the top ten.
That's mission possible fund reckoning with five ninety one, so
if I can get the three forty seven, so oh
there it is right there, It's already put there nineteen
if it were to stop now and offsely don't account
for budget everything like that, right, But this is a
Wheyre like even let Me Go twenty nineteen box office.
We've talked about this before. I'm not saying of like
the oh yeah, movies suck now or people don't go
out and see him, that is true, but people like it.
It's a it's a big different landscape. Right even then
though right I thought it would be a bigger difference,
but still Secret Life of Pets two in twenty eineteen
made four hundred and thirty one million, so I think,
I guess it's just that top ten, top fifteen that
was a lot higher, but the top twenty went up,
but still pretty good. That's where it started. This weekend
is at nineteen, and Christmas is here to make a
lot more. So I'm not ready right off, and not
that I care about it, but like I said this
a few weeks ago, and I said this last week
when Matt asked me or Mike asked me for the
final predictions, this is a thing that we will attract
next week a little bit the week after. It's not
just like a one and done, that's all. We can't
call the movie draft yet either, because I think it's
Kirklin and Dylan are really like neck and neck, so
we're gonna have to wait and see. But uh yeah,
that's this episode of Travis told you. Thank you everyone
that's listening. After the fact, I will get back to
being a live eventually, and like I said, when I
do stranger things, that will be after Christmas. So I
hope everybody has a good Christmas I've got time off,
enjoy it. If you don't make that money, spend that
money down line. You know, if you're working now the
next day you have off, make that your fucking Christmas.
You know, it's just a day. I talk about this
tale all time. Him Mass and are big on making
sure we got to do it on our anniverse. We
gotta do birthday and a birthday. Me and Emily are
very much like, eh, we'll get to like. The day's
not special, the calendar not special. It's what you do
with it, right, So happy holidays to everybody, Merry Christmas.
I love you all. Thank you again. Not that's the
last year I told you, but think again to everyone
that has listened uh these past few months, it's been
a great time. And I promise when you hear from
you next and I'll not be boring.
