Speaker 1: All right, we are back. We're going back to New
York Comic Con where we got some juicy things in here.
And what are the juicy things in here? Is a
trailer for wonder Man, which I believe has been delayed
from the initial date. Now it's January twenty seventh, a
couple of weeks back, six or eight episodes, I remember
the total on there whatever it is, first episodes dropping
January twenty seventh. What was your interest in this before
the trailer and how do you feel now that you've
seen the trailer? Yeah, you've seen the trailer.
Speaker 2: I have, of course. Yeah, it was a big question
mark before the trailer because you know, I have you know,
mosed around Wikipedia and Marvel Wiki and all that and
just see what's going on with this character, see what
his powers are, see with the premises, all that kind
of stuff. But now a character I'm familiar with from
really any media in particular, So yeah, I didn't really
know what to expect, and we haven't. I feel like
we haven't heard much about it. But the cast good,
you know, main man there is obviously a great, great
pick as well. And yeah, I mean I quite enjoyed
this trailer. I mean, it doesn't feel like an MCU thing,
which I think is like I wonder how much there
is gonna be like a fourth wallingness to it, because
like even in this trailer, they're like, there's great director's
coming back to do a new take on a superhero
because people are sick of superheroes, and like in this trailer,
you know, never you never see him get powers. You
never get like that moment where he gets infected by
some magical actor bug and then he like you know,
gains all these like electrical powers and all that. So
it feels like it's trying to go for something different,
but it is still an MCU thing. It's still a
Marvel thing. He still is a superhero I think or something.
And so maybe we're gonna get there, and maybe they're
just holding off on the you know, this is the
first trailer, so maybe we'll get that stuff later down
the road. But I thought this would seemed like a
very you know, planting the flag of like, Okay, this
is gonna be something a bit different. It's maybe a
bit of a commentary, like a self commentary fourth wall
comment on where we're at with superhero movies. Where we're
at in the MCU potentially, which could be interesting and
we'll just kind of have to see you where it
goes from there. But I also like I like the
acting here. We have Ben Kingsley coming back as Trevor
Slattery I think is the name of his character, which
is like such a weird trifectave like iron Man into
shun Xi until like wonder Man. It's just a weird
journey for this guy. But sure, why not? It seems fun?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: And yeah, I just I like the premising here. The
music was really good as well, so I'm considerably officially intrigued.
And yeah, that question mark turned into I guess the
thumbs up is where I'm at, right, Oh.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a good morphine of the question mark. My
question mark also morphed into a thumbs up. I really
really love this trailer. I think you nailed it with
the observation that, like, it just didn't feel like a
marvel like like show of of Late, at least in
the trend of trailers like Wana Vision. When I first
saw that it didn't really look like any other show
that they had done, it's because it wasn't really like
any other show that they've done, and haven't done since.
But no, I I think I just loved the light
vibe of it all, Like it just seems like a
really fun show. I think the humor was really good. Yeah,
y'all looks phenomenal in this especially coming from Oh absolutely gorgeous.
He looks just so different than like like he's fantastic
in his role of blackmanth but like, come on, there's
like not a lot of substance the character can really do.
He's pretty, it's pretty bland. Do we still have it? Oh?
Yeah we do. We got this great image that never
gets brought up anymore. But it's it's it's the scene
from from from that movie am my blanket on this
movie name aw Coleman. There you go.
Speaker 2: I like you already said it. That's why I was confused,
But maybe you didn't. Maybe I was like trying to
do like the subtitle. Sorry, I left you hanging a
little bit there swimming in the open water.
Speaker 1: I was drowning. But yeah, yeah it is not gonna
be drowning because in this show, it looks like he's
completely on land. And yeah, he's just a lot more
like on the humor side, and he just looks like
he is an actor, but it just seems like he's
using so much more range of of of everything in
the performance of just what was shown on this trailer.
So I'm excited to see him in that role. Also,
just like the color palette of this trailer, it just
it was like really bright. I was just vibing with it.
A bunch of people were wearing just you know, various outfits,
and I just I just visually, look good comes out
the day before my birthday. So it's just like, man,
this is all just excitement around this show for me.
And I really didn't know like much about the character
of wonder Man, let alone what this show would be.
So I really like just the Yeah, just just what
we're getting, like the I was gonna say, like the play,
but that's I don't know, I guess that is what
it is. Just just just the gist of what the show
is going to be. So yeah, and I am happy
to get Ben Kingsley back. I actually liked the like
the joke with him in Chunk Chi, and I like
that we're kind of carrying this character over but hopefully
it's not going to be too overdone. So yeah, that's
my thoughts on wonder Man, like I said January twenty seventh,
another great Marvel show. Well, I don't know if woner
Man is gonna be great, but I know this show
is great. X Men ninety seven ever heard of it?
I think? So we went under our fantastic X Men
Animated series retrospective in anticipation for x N ninety seven,
which we reviewed. It's on the Figo check it out.
I love that show, Dylan, I think, really loved that show.
I think though, I think most of the lads all
loved it. And excitement here. Season two premieres summer twenty
twenty six. Not only that, season three is renewed. Put
that pen to paper as well. Season four and five
are being planned and if greenlit, the plan is a
yearly release. That is just like thumbs up after thumbs
up of great news there. Yeah, and then the one
thing I didn't mention is for season two, Apocalypse will
be the main focus. Big Dad Apocalypse. Of course he's
recurring villain. Yep, yep, great cliffhang well, not really Hager,
just just a hangnail left on. It's a gruesome image.
But yeah, I'm sure you're excited by this news, especially
the potential of a yearly release for a show that
we all really loved.
Speaker 2: Did you see the trailer for this one?
Speaker 1: I actually didn't know.
Speaker 2: I think it's just like a cam rip on YouTube, Like, okay,
I watched the trailer, but I don't think it was official.
Maybe it was like, hey, I generated I don't even know.
Now these days, I've.
Speaker 1: All fallen victim to that. H No.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I'm very excited for this. So the
premise of this being like, we got to get the
X Men back to the nineties and we're you know,
obviously the time travel aspect makes sense with Apocalypse, and
we see like a more human looking Apocalypse too, and
at one point like takes his weird glasses off and
it's like, oh, yeah, he has eyes under there, Like,
I guess that makes sense, but not something that I
feel like we really dug into in the original series,
back when Apocalypse is always kicking around. He was always
just that same Apocalypse. So I guess I'm surprised a
little bit, just because, you know, if we already got
season three renewed plans for four and five, this just
feels like something you do season three or four or five,
Like it seems like something you do down the road.
It feels like they're gonna be pulling the trigger a
bit too early on this. I feel like I was
kind of fine with like where we were a few
years down the road. I guess maybe things were a
little bit different some things like, but now we're going
back there already. So obviously some of those days of
future past episodes and two part of three part or
whatever it was in the original series are really great,
and that's always a fun premise. You get to do
a lot of interesting things. They're different on characters. But yeah,
I don't know, to me, this seems like with the
way X Men ninety seven was. I don't know, do
you feel like we're gonna get like a bunch of
one off episodes still or is this mostly gonna be
like a full season kind of arc, because it just
feels like this seems like a big, serious thing that
could be like really just pulling everything together more cohesively,
which is good in all, but I still like getting
a random little one offs here there, which you know,
we might still get.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we definitely still could get. I worry though, if
it's like if the show is actually at the quality
of what the first season was, which I have no
reason for it to not be that way. I might
just be really vale with the Apocalypse stuff, and if
we get like a side filler episode, I might be
upset with that. I don't love all of the little
side stories. Mojo in particular. I ended up liking the
Mojo episode.
Speaker 2: Yeah watch your mouth and you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Hey, it's you know, it's potential potential to happen. But
I think that there still would be some sprinkling of
side adventures, not necessarily a whole episode, but like at
least some little side plot things going on. But I
just feel that because it was alluded to last season,
like that will be the main focus and majority of
the season. Will we'll cover that. I could see even
like a specific episode like covering maybe a little bit
more backstory into just the character of Apocalypse and just
that like Egyptian era that we're kind of exploded. I
can't remember what his like his original name was, but
just yeah, I don't know, it's really interesting character. I
don't believe that this would just be like the last
appearance of Apocalypse either. It's just a character that will
never just be gone forever. So yeah, it is early,
but like he could easily just be a sleeper for
a few seasons and then just randomly pops up again.
It's it's a pretty easy villain to work with in
that sense, So I don't think it's necessarily like too
early for this. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
I'm also just intrigued at like the modern era of Like,
like I was shouting out the animation just just as
a whole in season one, like it just looks so
crazy when they do the Goblin Queen battle and just
like the explosions and everything, it just looks so incredible.
So yeah, I'm I'm just excited to see some like
apocalypse in there too. It's just gonna be some some
glorious action.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And yeah, like I I guess maybe by the
time this is coming out, maybe it'll feel like the
first season was forever ago. But to me, it still
feels like, Okay, we're getting we're on like a good
momentum track here. I guess it was like already over
a year ago, but I don't know, to me, this
seems like a good timing. I'm excited for this in
what feels like just a few months. I guess it's
like almost a year, but you know, a few months
next summer. I can't wait.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how long has it just been a year? Or
is in my mind it's been longer.
Speaker 2: I feel like it was like April or something of
like last year.
Speaker 1: So I think you are right because I remember talking
to someone at work about it, But it was like
before I left, like my second last job. Maybe I
just I wasn't there that long. Yeah, time is a
weird thing, true. Yeah, I mean that's that's all I
had there really for for X Men. Can't wait for that.
Speaker 2: It's exciting prediction right now? Season four or five? Are
those getting renewed or are we just getting a three
season run.
Speaker 1: Just like like four or and five like as a whole,
like we're definitely gonna get Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna say
I wish I had more like confidence in my yes.
I'm gonna say like sixty five percent yes, you don't
ask for a percentage. I kind of defaulted in that,
but you know, six of yes it is still yes.
So I'm gonna I'm gonna say, yes, what.
Speaker 2: You okay, hmmm, I'll say we just get the three
I'll go on the pessimistic side, but I want to
be in your side of the field.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to be more confident. I want to say, like,
hell yeah, there's no way it's not going to happen.
But I don't know, Like maybe it's just X Men
ninety seven season one, you know, the show's finally coming back,
Like there is a lot of buzz around that, and
then just more more seasons come out. Maybe people just
kind of forget about it. I hope that isn't the case,
but I don't know. I could see that happening, but
hopefully not. Hopefully not. Yeah, all right, I'm gonna keep
skidaddling down the animated realm. Here. Uh, Friendly Neighborhood spider Man.
You've seen it, right, mm hmm yes U. Friendly Neighbors
Spider Man Season two premiers Fall twenty twenty six. Hold
that phone. Venom and Daredevil confirmed discuss still Less.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you you were on their weekly reviews. I
was not, So I'm I might be a little more
foggy on it because I kind of binged through it
and stuff. Daredevil remind me what he was doing in
season one again.
Speaker 1: Because he was, Yeah, he was investigating what's his name
uh Storm and Norman and then and then Peter is
like responding to a break in. That's back when he's
he's kind of on Norman's hip like his little lap dog.
And then uh, he confronts the batty and it's uh,
it's Daredevil himself and they have a little.
Speaker 2: They have that one rooftop roof. Then yes, okay, remember
the rooftop fight.
Speaker 1: And then there's an end credit. I don't know if
it's the end of the show. I think it is
at the end of the show where he's running in
an alley with a female cohort who's also dressed.
Speaker 2: Credit or he was actually yeah, hanging out with So
who do we don't know? We don't know who that
is yet.
Speaker 1: I don't know who that is. I don't know if
it's a new character or not, but I personally do
not know who that is at all.
Speaker 2: Okay, don't seem like an Electro No, okay, not Electra
crosser off the list?
Speaker 1: Yeah, sadly, Okay, I'll google just to confirm that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it took it took a bit of a jogging,
but that that rooftop fight scene was great. So yeah,
now I'm remembering that they did have a tussle before,
and obviously, yeah, with that setup, it seems like, okay,
Daredevil was bound to come back. He was obviously in
no way home. So yeah, there's a lot of connection
points between these characters in this kind of era of Marvel.
So excited to get that connection again. That's always a
fun duo when it pops up in like the old
TV show Back in the Day or that first season
of Friendly Neighborhood. So all in on Daredevil, I think
with Venom, Am I still Burton on Venom from like
Tom Hardy because that movie was only last year, right,
Venom The Last Oh my god, I remember remember that
that movie was called The Last Dance. It feels like it.
Speaker 1: Came out seven years ago. That's how long it's been
in my mind.
Speaker 2: You're so fresh actually that I'm like, oh yeah, am
I ready to let Venom back in my life after
all these I still haven't even seen Venom too, Like
I just watched one in three, So I don't know.
Speaker 1: And you forgot about his buddy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I just don't know if I want
to remember him, you know, I might, I might want
to forget him, So I don't know how I feel
about I kind of botch that, but you don't know
if I'm trying to get at but I don't know, like,
where are you at? Because I feel like, you know
you played Spider Man two Venoms big in there? Maybe
your hype down Venom? Where are you at with Venom?
Are you wanting more of him? Right now?
Speaker 1: Before I answer that, I will ask you a question.
I found who that is? I'm not I won't tell
you who it is in case of in case you
want to stay away. But it's not Elektra.
Speaker 2: In the show? Or is it like Speculation City.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's it's like plethora of articles on like talking
about Finesse is the character's name. Yeah, that's got to
be a Marvel snap cart right, I mean it might
be when the show comes out, if it's not already
that that would make sense if ties it in there.
But yeah, apparently it's a costume adventurer known as Finesse
and then.
Speaker 2: Just the daughter of task Man.
Speaker 1: Oh fuck, I didn't even see that in there.
Speaker 2: That's I like that, okay, Finess expert, swordsman, master assassin,
photographic photographic reflexes. Oh, is that like test Master's thing?
Like photo.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess idetic memory voice probably enhanced stamina in there.
Speaker 2: Denoting mental images having unusual vividness and detail.
Speaker 1: What is that it's like more than photographic?
Speaker 2: She just says, a good memory for smells and colors,
hand to hand combat, of course. Affiliations girl aim okay, okay,
Avengers Academy okay, count me in on finesse. I hope
we get soul finesse going on in two.
Speaker 1: But to answer your question, I am very biased because
Venom is probably, if not my favorite, like easily top
three favorite, just like fiction character in you know sing Yeah,
absolutely not. I got him right here. He's with me
on every cast. I I was hurt watching through those
live action Tom Hardy Vena movies. I had a great
time with the first one, like I actually enjoyed it.
Second one was arguably the worst theater experience I ever
had in my life. I think I saw that movie alone,
way too loud. Woody Harrelson did not help at all
with his carnage Cleus CASSII performance. And then the third
one was just I couldn't believe what I was watching.
But it's like, hey, this is the end. I had
a fun enough time with it. I was laughing in
the theater. I had a good time. However, Friendly with
Spider Man does such a good job at just adding
like a very unique, original flavor to a very reoccurring
like villain, like like Scorpion, for example, I think Scorpion
has the juice to be cut like to actually be
like one of the best villains in just superhero content,
like just just diveing into like his personal stuff with
j Jonah Jamison and like just there's just some great
like potential for phenomenal script around that. And for the
ever Spider Man, like they like they wrote a very
different version of the character than I would have ever imagined,
but it was so good. It was so good, so
scary just just made this like B tier villain on
like the power scale feel like an S tier and
man like if you take Venom, who's like already like
that level in the fandom's eyes, and I just trust
this team so much with what they're able to do
with them and like make it be very original. I
think it would be a fresh take honestly on on
the just just just Venom and and like I think
it would help avoid or it is the wrong word in.
It would just like a fresh breath of air on
something that has been so overused lately, because yeah, like
you said, it's been in Spider Man two obviously, the
whole live action Venom stuff, and he's just been up
like Andrew Garfield Spider Man totally Spider Man like. It's
just it's just always around Spidy titles.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's do you think it's so fresh that
they don't do Eddie Brock they do a different guy.
Speaker 1: I can see that for sure. I could definitely see
it being I could honestly speak like seeing it take
over like a character that well, I was gonna say,
has never really been with the Symbio suit. But I
feel like if you go down the comic book realm,
every single character and their dog has had the Simbio
suit at some point. So but like, I don't know,
like there is I think there's at least one or
two original characters in the Friend of the Neighborhood show,
so like that could also be appearing there. It could be. Yeah,
I don't know. I could speculate all day who it
could be, but I could definitely be or sorry, I
it by the fact that it wouldn't be an Eddie
Brock pairing. Yeah, I don't know. I think I'm honestly
a lot more in the camp that it wouldn't be
Eddie Brock. I think it would be something not necessarily
brand new, but just different than that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what if it's even just like I'm trying to
think of, like the female version of the name Eddie,
like Eddietta Brock.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like a gender Okay, so the scene like Octo Octavius,
we got like Olivia like maybe they.
Speaker 2: Do like it, but no, you told me on this,
ed No, there you go, mode. Yeah, you've kind of
sold me on this because the point there of the
scorpion and I mean even Norman was like a very
different iteration that we've seen before Tombstone of course, like
taking like a nobody goon type character turning into like
a fucking amazing, super well written character. Ye. So yeah,
I could definitely see them doing that with Eddie Brock
as well. So do you know what fucking sold? Okay,
I'm converted.
Speaker 1: I'm in now you're back in this camp. Memory memory
is bringing back your I won't forget you buddy.
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, now you've ruined it because you're not.
Speaker 1: You won't be forget about Venom anytime soon.
Speaker 2: I get.
Speaker 1: I could also see them going like the Flash Thompson route,
pairing with uh with with with with Venom. That that
could be fun, but like, yeah, that that's also just
going in a different avenue too, with like agent Venom stuff.
I don't know. I just want to see like a
like a freak just take over the symbio and that
doesn't necessarily have to be like a Kletis Casi type
where he's just a psycho, but just like a very
different version of the character, where like, yeah, he is
just as like quirky, like he's he's a good character,
but he's just carrying the symbiote and then you have
like the schizophrenic conversations. Uh yeah, I think there's just
so much juice around that character. So and I'm sure
that would help numbers a lot, you know, I think
we'd be getting that's when we get into our our
like version of the X Men eighty seven season four
or fives.
Speaker 2: I could I could see like not Nico becoming the
not becoming Venom because I'd be like a fucking crazy pivot.
But I feel like the darkness of her character and
the magic and stuff. I could see that somehow pairing
with like someone who's has the symbio attached to them, Like,
I don't know, I could see that being a dynamic
that could be really interesting. WHI should obviously lead to
some drama between her already kind of rocky relationship with
Peter if she's like kind of not teaming up with Venom,
but she like maybe has sympathy for the guy who
like got the symbiote. If it is Eddie Brock in
this case, I could say something like that happening, which
could be fun as well. Yeah, Damnic so excited for
more Nico as well.
Speaker 1: Oh, man, Nico is fantastic. I want to rewatch that
show now.
Speaker 2: I do too.
Speaker 1: Actually loaded up on the plane.
Speaker 2: You gotta play fire am BLOWM. Kirkland.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, no, no.
Speaker 2: No, Spider Man rewatching for you finish first, fire up. Okay,
I forgot to.
Speaker 1: Bring up our what we've been watching. I apologize.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got a lot of news next. You can
do it if you want, or we can do it.
I'm fine.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a jarring place to just stop talking
about what we're talking about I guess we can do
that if you want to do you have anything you
really want to shout out?
Speaker 2: If we could do about after Marvel News, we do.
Speaker 1: Okay, there you go. We'll circle back to that, back
to the subject at hand, which was friendly Umber Spider Man.
Uh and then yeah, we talked a lot about Venom Daredevil.
I'm so excited. Just get more Matt Murdoch in there
and then go down the Finesse route and uh yeah,
explore that character. Yeah, I don't really have any more
else to say. I'm sure it's gonna be. That's great.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you said the release date you
probably did, but follow twenty twenty six. So yeah, we
have the Summer x Men, Summer x Men and then
the Fall of Spidey, so nice want you punch there? Yeah,
it's gonna work out nicely. Absolutely, Uh okay, and then
Mosey and on down. We also have a quest a
vision Quest. They're gonna say side quest.
Speaker 1: We did a side quest, which is fantastic. Two quests
back to back. One was a side and this one's
for the Vision White Vision, which I don't think that's
the actual name, Snow Vision, Snow Vision there you go.
It sounded wrong when I said that snow Vision has
all of the memories of the original Vision but struggling
to connect with the emotions, which when I read that,
I was like, I thought that was known already. I know,
we really haven't explored the character at all, but it's
just like I assume that would have been the case
where it's like, Okay, this is the robotic version of Vision,
but like, I'm sure there's gonna be some inner turmoil
where he's trying to remember the old side of himself.
It just seemed like a U you know, it's a
type of line that I was reading, but at least
it's nothing too crazy in the wrong direction. Like sound
was a little bit like the.
Speaker 2: Uh plot of tron Aries. Not to spoil that movie
too much, but go check out tron Aries.
Speaker 1: Yeah, actually there's definitely some some tron areas in there. Yeah,
no good observation. And then I'll just list all of
it and then we'll talk about it all. And then
Speed also known as Tommy Maximov confirmed for the show
that is Vision Quest, and then Ultron voiced by the
Great powerful James Spader returning, which is awesome. And then
apparently we're gonna have Friday Edith Jarvis and dumb Dash E.
And if you couldn't tell by the way I was
saying that, it is the what's the word for when
you just have like, what is acronym? Thank you? Version
of that? So F dot, R, dot I, et cetera.
So for Friday, Edith Jarvis and dumb Dash E will
appear and have human forms coming to Disneyplus twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: Sorry, I just a very side tension. I just realized.
So with X Men ninety seven, also Wonder Man Now,
Friendly Neighborhood, Spider Man, Vision Quest, Spider Man, Brand, New Day, Avengers,
dooms Day, and The Punisher Special all coming out next year,
that's gonna be a spicy MCU Golden geeks for that,
which has been a little bit on ice for a
little bit here where like we don't have as much
content to discuss. If all of that still comes out
next year, and I think I have those movie dates right,
that is gonna be fucking hype. That's gonna be goit
the year next year. And that's also your a million
huge video games coming out in twenty twenty six might
be our year Kirkland.
Speaker 1: That might be best here yet. Yeah. Yet, that's crazy
actually because I've been going through listening off the dates,
but until you compile them all together in one sentence,
it yeah, it actually puts it in the in the
frontal lobe there. That's kind of crazy. We're gonna be
stretched thin, but in all the right directions and right ways.
Speaker 2: Thanks for that.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a little audre there just to just
settle down. We'll come back to unpack on this. All right,
we've calmed down, had some water. We're back anywhere you
want to start with all this vision stuff? You know
it starts, yeah.
Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, just to just like this show have
been extremely unhyped on and this stuff. The one thing
that I am interested in is Ultron because I like
James Spader. I like Ultron as a character. Yeah, Avengers too,
you know, not the not the finest MCU craft, that's
no doubt, but I think there's a lot of potential
with that character. I didn't necessarily need him coming back,
but it's one that you announce it and I'm like, oh,
I'm interested in that. I'm excited to see what they
do with it. Ultron We've seen him be quite powerful
on Avengers level threat, and now he's like in a
TV show as a potent. Is he gonna be a
villain there? Is he actually just like a guy. We'll
see what's going on there. And then obviously in like
what if we got like the what was the name
of that, like Multiverse Ultron he had like a then
like a name Infinity Ultron. Yeah, that's that's the one
for sure where that's like, you know, insane levels of power.
So this will be interesting to go like, Okay, now
we're gonna shrink that character down to like mc U
TV show format, So we'll see what that looks like
in terms of like bringing all of these robots. You know,
we have like Tony Stark's uh voice, we got you know,
Jarvis the original one. Of course we have Edith is
Spidey's voice.
Speaker 1: Right, yes, even dead I'm the hero hey yeah?
Speaker 2: And then dummy, that's like the mechanical arm from Iron Man.
Speaker 1: I think, right, Oh, that's funny. I didn't. I didn't
think that's what it is.
Speaker 2: Uh, I don't. I'm not too excited about like all
these guys come into life, Like that's not something I
need when when we say when we say we have
they have human forms, Like, what do you think that means? Exactly?
Are these like like they're all getting a body like
uh like vision? I guess is that what we're doing,
Like we're three D printing them out.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think what's gonna happen is because he's having
like an identity crisis, Like he's just gonna have moments
where it's almost like Wanda Vision, where like it's gonna
be like a fake interaction but like internally in his
head like he's that's when That's what I believe is
when he's gonna actually be interacted with like James Spader
as like the Ultron character, because he's he knows this voice,
he knows who this character is, right, but like he's
seeing this version of it. Same thing for Edith Jarvis.
Of course, Jarvis is like his own you know, it's
Paul Betney's voice. So like I just pictured those moments
being Wanda Vision. Y. I don't think the whole show
is gonna be like just copying what WandaVision was. I
hope it isn't, because that show is just really unique
on its own. But just just the fact that I
think it's gonna be psychological. I think it's gonna be
trippy for the character of Vision, especially if he's battling
just just the emotional side of the character to just
going back to the bland robot version of himself. I
think that will be like a thing that he's just
dealing with throughout the season. And I think that would
be the thing that makes the most sense to get
those human versions of those characters, because like, how so
are you gonna get the dummy like arm like being
a human character like that? That just doesn't really I
don't know. I guess they could explain it some way,
but to me, that would be the route that I
picture it being. I would be kind of surprised if
that's not the case.
Speaker 2: And then yes, so speed you tell me, maxim Off.
I mean, I'd be excited for the idea if Wanda
was here and we were getting the dynamic with her
as well. But she's not announced for the show yet, right,
so it's like I don't know if she'll be in there.
Speaker 1: I can see her appearing, though, I could see her
being like a surprise appearance. I could yeah, make her
long return, just because like, especially if it's like if
what I'm pitching is actually true, and like a lot
of it is kind of internal for the character, like
that's not really breaking any continuity stuff. If she appears there,
I think it could be a big moment to especially
like those two characters are tied together so much, like
the love that they have for each other for Vision
and Wanda, I could see that happening. I wouldn't Pizza
bed hit by any means, And like some people might
scoff at the idea of like Wanda's return is in
Vision Quest the show, Like really, I don't know. I
think like out of anyone that would have like the
biggest tie to her, it would be Paul Bettney's Vision,
So yeah, I don't know that that's kind of how
now that Pietro's dead, of course, you know that would
be the one tie Aaron Daylor Johnson's Ptro. But I
think that would be Juice also, like just just mic
drop like surprise appearance. Nobody was expecting to have her
in there if they able to keep it hush hush,
But I mean, would they keep it hush hush, like
if they're trying to sell people on the show you
got Elizabeth Olsen back. I think that would definitely get
people intrigued to check it out. So I don't know.
Maybe I'm just a little child dreaming of a beautiful
scenario that won't ever come. But I like to be
a dreamer sometimes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean I feel like it was maybe
three or four maybe longer years ago now, where I want,
at one point in time, we had like like fifteen
to twenty MCU things announced, like maybe twenty that we
knew were coming, and I remember what we did. I
think it maybe it was a bread and butter where
we like ranked our excitement level for each of them.
I think Vision Quest was maybe around then it would
have been low. But if we're just looking at like
the slate of things we currently know about that are coming,
like this show is the lowest thing for me on
the high level, I think, you know, maybe that's a
little bit lucky timing wise, because like I wasn't that
hype for Eyes of Waconda or iron Heart. Goddamn iron Heart,
That's what I was. I got iron So maybe my
I don't know, I don't even know if I'd be
more excited for this than those I guess they're all
kind of in the bottom tier for me excitement level wise.
So I don't know. I'll when I get a trailer,
maybe I'll maybe the hype levels will rise up and
I see who they get. You know, if they get
an actor I like in the human forms of these
robot people, then sure, maybe that could be fun. But
right now, eh.
Speaker 1: You gotta have James Pader though, right as Ultron, Like
you got to actually have him, you think so, I
want so, I guess yeah, if they're not, if they
don't physically have the robot of Ultron, then I guess
you do get him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And if they don't, then I'll be pissed because he's.
Speaker 1: Just dressed up like Robert California and he's just the
Lizard King.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Awesome. Yeah, it's coming to Disney Plus twenty twenty six,
along with I think everything else we talked about today,
which is crazy speed. Yeah, I'm excited to get a
little bit more of Tommy and I have nothing else
to say on that.
Speaker 2: Okay, so we're gonna close the.
Speaker 1: Comic contractor there you happy with that? Any last things?
Speaker 2: No, pretty solid for just like you know, not having
like an Avengers, not having like a big movie thing
that's good for like a little TV romp there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think if it was just like the Vision stuff,
it'll be like, okay, we got a little bit more
on that. But like I mean, I'm obviously very biased,
but like just the Spider Man stuff gets me juiced,
and then pairing it with a great Wonderman trailer and
then yeah, X Men ninety seven, I.
Speaker 2: Think that, Yeah, the wonder Man trailer, that's like a
really welcome surprise. So I think that, if anything, that's
the success, that's the win here, because like X Men,
I don't know Spider Man. It's pretty hard to mess
that up with how good those first seasons were. But yeah,
it's like, oh now I'm excited for a new thing
that I wasn't before. So success overall fantastic. All right, Uh, well,
let's talk about some trailers here.
Speaker 1: Why not? We got as this?
Speaker 2: Do you want to do you want to talk about?
Oh my god, do you want to officially kick that?
Speaker 1: I am like Ron Burgundy when it comes to like
I have my teleprompter of like notes that I'm going through.
So it's like we say, it's like he once we're
done this, we're gonna cover that, and then I forget
about that because I'm just reading my teleprompter and then
I just keep going.
Speaker 2: So, hey, if you're in a flow, you know you
gotta flow. You gotta ride the flow.
Speaker 1: We're sub one hour, you know we got time left
on the clock, Dyl Musk, what have you been watching?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I really just have two things to shout out.
So I saw the much beloved weapons.
Speaker 1: This is like two or three weeks ago now, But
we so avoid spoilers.
Speaker 2: I'm sure you will, but I will avoid spoilers. Yeah,
I guess I'll just say in a very little non
spoilery way that it's much different than I was expecting.
The vibes of it. I feel like, not that the
marketing was misleading, but I actually like that the trailers
kind of set up something different than what I got
in a way, So I don't I feel like, maybe
I don't want to say too much more because you
still haven't seen it yet. In that might it might
have already kind of changed how you perceive this thing
before you've seen it. But I really enjoyed it. It
had some really fun character moments in there. I really
like the structure of it. Once again, without actually saying
any spoilers of it, and then like, you know, the
freakiness of it, the mystery, the thriller, that aspect of
it was a thrilling time as well, So I did
enjoy it. I definitely am excited to have a conversation
about this one, whether it's a Golden Geeks or some
other time, about just like what this movie's about and
what it means, because I feel like in that sense,
I don't know if it really rose to the occasion.
It maybe set up some things and then, in my opinion,
didn't really deliver them. But I'm excited to hear some
other interpretations of that. I don't know if there was
a chat we had in the discord for that, but
I'd be curious to go back and see what people
were saying about it. But definitely recommend it. It was
it was super fun. I think you definitely got to
watch it before the years years up. I'm sure it's
on your your must watch list.
Speaker 1: It is absolutely who's the female leading that again or
who's like the school teacher because I remember that from
the trailer.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm totally blanking. Who is it?
Speaker 1: It's uh, the blonde lady right famous.
Speaker 2: Oh it's from Julia Gardener.
Speaker 1: Yeah Gardener, Yeah, there you go. Yeah, she's fantastic. So
I'm excited. And that's kind of all I really remember
from the trailers, and I'm I'm not gonna watch a trailer,
so I'm gonna keep.
Speaker 2: That right on. Okay, cool, I'll leave it there on
that one. But yeah, I enjoyed that. And then the
other one I saw is a new movie I saw
Roofman with Channing Tatum and Kristen Dunce and a couple
other people that make appearances in there, and man, I
love this movie. It was it was super good. I
mean from the trailers as such, as that concept of
it is really really strong. It seems like a funny idea.
But then it's like, oh, this is based on a
true story, and like at the end of it, they
do that thing where they kind of like show here's
like the scene in the movie or the picture in
the movie versus like the news article or thing from
real life, and like showing some of those comparisons, and yeah,
like I'm you know, I'm sure a ton of this
is Hollywood eyes glamorized and whatnot, from like what actually
occurred in real life. But it's just a really interesting story,
really different than what you expect from like a typical
criminal on the run storyline. It was chocked full of heart,
had a lot of really heartwarming, warming, heartwarming moments in there.
Maybe the best performance I've seen from Channing Tatum. I
don't think it's like an all timer, like all this
guy's gotta win the Oscar or anything like that, but
from a guy who I've mostly just seen do like
be the stupid, big, big guy like in this he
has a lot more heart, he has a lot more range,
and I really enjoyed him in there. And then the
funniest thing for me when I was watching this movie
is Kurt Kirston Dunts. She's like, I guess you'd call
her supporting role. She doesn't really show up for like
the first half of the movie or whatever it is.
Her Her character's name in this movie is Lee, And
the whole time I was like, man, I swear that
was the name of her character in Civil War as well.
And then like, I you know, I'm not gonna I'm
not like, what do they call it? They call it
a a Sammy scroller, you know. They saidn't. They don't
be a Sammy scroller in the theater, don't take out
your phone, don't google things. So I was not gonna
be a Sammy scroller. So I waited till the end
of the movie, and then I googled it and confirmed
that her name in Civil War was Lee. I gota
say Kurson dunce with playing characters named Lee fucking batting
a hun. She is so good in this and obviously
so good in Civil War. But man, I just this
this little re emergence, at least for me seeing her
and things, because I just feel like until some War,
I hadn't seen her anything since probably Spider Man, you know.
And I'm sure she's been doing stuff and probably good
movies and is a good actor. But yeah, just I'm
just really impressed by her. I think she's just such
a such a freaking great actress. So and that duo
was a really really fun combo as well. So yeah,
I really enjoyed this movie. I definitely recommend it to, uh,
I think kind of anyone. Yeah, it's one of my
one of my favorites of the year for sure, and
it's a strong years I think that's that's saying something
so check out Roofman for sure.
Speaker 1: Nice yeah, good show. Ow Yeah, that's all the ones
you wanna you wanna mention for him.
Speaker 2: I think so one a watching Survivor and watching him.
I don't even know what I've been watching. Those are
the two things I wanted to shout out though.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good shows, out good shouts out good shout outs, shouts. Uh.
I have been watching Dexter, which Shane. I just finished
the finale for season seven. I won't dive into too
much details because I kind of want to have a
further discussion with Travis about him defending season set. And
you know, I don't want to start that off by
saying Seaton seven is a fail. It's just there's some
things in it that I've major problems with.
Speaker 2: So I between that and calling Travis a seat to
your Scooper, you're really trying to start a war here
before you go on holidays, kind of just start the fire.
Speaker 1: And I think it's like a good ninety plus percent
of times when it's a Weekly Geek or or any
episode Travis isn't on, I feel like I just naturally
start like just shit talking him. For some reason. It's
just just something that I have to get off my chest.
And you know, I can feel his presence on the unable.
Speaker 2: To defend himself. That's when you got to go at
him exactly.
Speaker 1: That's when I feel the safest when I can do that.
Speaker 2: You can't pop in the room at any moment. You know,
he has that power.
Speaker 1: Oh he does that, you know he's in the shower
or something. But uh yeah, no, it's it's been an
interesting ride. I wanted to rewatch it, of course, because
we're just in the Dexter multiverse. And I was powering
through the first couple of seasons. Season five happened, and
it took me like four years to get through it
felt eventually got it through, and then season six zoom by,
Season seven zoom by. And I think a big part
of that is I got Shay on board. I was
getting her interested enough where like she actually was like
she would leave the room, she like asked me to pause.
So that's like a big moment when it's like I'm
not watching your show, but like, yeah, you know, don't
watch episodes without me, uh, And she was. She even
admitted she watched an episode without me because I fell
asleep on the couch and she just watched the whole episode,
and I was so not vibing with where we were
in the show, so I didn't even rewatch that episode.
I was just ready to do advance. But it has
been fun going through it. And yeah, can you remind
me what's.
Speaker 2: The like the killer or like the main action of
season six? That one's I feel like a blind spot
for me.
Speaker 1: What happens with season six is the Doomsday Killer with
Thomas Marshall or Travis Marshall is his name, which is
played by Tom Hanks's son, what's his name, Colin Hanks?
She is, Yeah, that's a with like that War of Babylon.
It's like a very biblical season. There's some stupid stuff
where Dexter's like praying to God like it's it's it gets,
it gets kind of silly. Not that religion is dumb
or anything, you know, I'm I'm not putting that out there,
but just it's like so inconsistent with the character I found.
But yeah, it was a slog to get through that season.
Season seven, there's some really stupid stuff that happens, but like, man,
the finale is fucking juicy. So we just watched that
today and it was it was fun. I really really
was vibing with that, and I never got through like
the first couple episodes of season eight, so it's gonna
be interesting going through that and actually finishing the show.
I think I'm actually I can confidently say I'm gonna
I'm gonna get there. So that's what I've been watching
just basically daily, an episode or two a day. And
in terms of movies, last week, I was sick, so
I was just I was putting some things on to
just kind of have like background shows. It's it's weird.
I don't know. I don't know if you're similar to this,
but like if I'm sick and at home, I just
want to throw in like an action something and act
like what like just it could be a really stupid
action movie like Battleship or something like that, Like I
just want some action going on because I know I'm
gonna be like fading in and out and I just
want to like wake up and just have some big
kaijus or something slapping each other around. Like like that's
just it might be nostalgic, like maybe I just remember
watching that type of stuff when I was sick as
a kid, but.
Speaker 2: The first one, I don't do that, but I get
why you do that. I think for me, it's a
like a comedy from between nineteen ninety five and two
thousand and seven is what.
Speaker 1: I'm looking for. And when you're sick specifically, I think,
so yeah, yeah, it's like Lord of the Rings or
just like a sci fi action something for okay, And
Lord of the Rings is like if I want to
if I'm awake. But this was like I took my
nighttime neo citrin. I'm I'm I'm going to be fading
in and out of consciousness. Here. I threw in now
you See Me, the first one, which I remember liking
in theaters, and uh, I hated it so much from
the get go, to the point that I turned it
off in like ten minutes, Like I didn't even get that,
and like this is me knowing that I'm this is
gonna be me, Like I'm gonna be falling asleep in
fifteen minutes. And I couldn't even make it ten minutes
into the into the show. I had to actually stop
it and turn it off. I'm just man like, just
the whole gimmick of they do these ridiculous card tricks
and stuff, and it's like, oh, it's real, they're slight
a handle. It's not. It's a fucking movie. So it
like takes away all of the magic pun intended on
that type of aspect. Okay, I don't know. It just
takes a lot of that away from me, and and
just just whatever it is, it was just upsetting me.
So I turned it off. I'm not gonna watch now
you see me, now you don't. It comes into theaters.
What I did end up putting on though, and I
did watch incompletion through multiple sittings, because of course I
fell asleep. I had to rewind. Was Edge of Tomorrow.
Have you heard or seen this movie?
Speaker 2: Heard? Of of course, have I seen it? Look at
a picture of.
Speaker 1: It again, starring you know, the guy that's just having fun
making movies, having a great time, Tom Cruise aside Bill Paxton,
Bill Paxson, and Emily Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt. I'm
not gonna spoil it, but the big concept of it
is our hero Tom Cruise is on this battlefield and
keeps reliving like the same day. So it's it's kind
of groundhoggy and in that sense, uh to me, Man
this was scratching the death loop vibe so much. It
really made me want to actually, uh just just just
that idea of like, you know, like you're in a
battle sequence and then like every time you really have
like you relive like that day, like you're gonna know
kind of how to how to tackle a little bit
more officially, maybe a better and yeah, like I at
first it was like, hey, this is gonna be that
battleship level action movie that I'm really not interested in.
I was like fading in and out. But then certain
stuff happens, I think when he meets like Emily Blunt's character,
and Emily Blunt's fantastic in this also, I was totally
getting hooked. And although I did fall asleep you know
multiple times, I rewound and and finished the movie and
had a really good time with it. It's one that's
been on the list for a really, really long time.
Like I feel like Travis recommended this movie like early
days of podcast, and I just always put it off,
and yeah, threw it on and had a really good
time with it. I definitely recommend it to sci fi fans.
I mean, if you're just a fan of Tom Cruise
in those action roles. I think you'll get something good
out of it. And Bill Paxson is in this movie.
He's just he's got a funny accent in it, and
he's only really in it that like at the beginning
a lot. But yeah, I know he's he's great as always,
and uh yeah, no, it's good. I recommend it. I
liked it a lot.
Speaker 2: I'll put it on my list.
Speaker 1: There you go. That's all I have to say. So
we are going to take uh yeah, let's take our
last at break and then we'll go into trailers here
