• 0:02
  Speaker 1: All right, if.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: There's one trailer that you should watch today, I had
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: it for you.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: What is it?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: And it's the only one. Now it turns out that
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: even Marvel isn't you know, crazy enough to sell tickets
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: for a movie that doesn't have a trailer yet, because
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: the tickets for Doomsday goes on sale today, so you
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: got to see a little something. So they surprised dropped
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: a trailer. Everybody thought that they were going to because
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: San Diego Comic Con is this weekend. Everybody thought that
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: they would hold on to it release it then, but yeah,
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: so they dropped it on us here. So it's the
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: first trailer for the next big mighty Marvel team up.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Something's coming.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: In the trailer, Thor seems to be having a hard
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: time convincing we may not be able to all the heroes.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: Team up shouldn't be faced with an untin about.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Decision had a lot of action in it, you got.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: It with many warriors in my time, of course, they
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: were far stronger than all of us put together, and
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: they died. They died facing enemies.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: And threats that scared me far less than this one.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and even Thora is afraid of doing.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Everything that they sacrifice will be for nothing if we
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: do not start together.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: Put aside your petty squalls, I presume nothing except this,
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: if you would. Yeah, Willerton has brothers and his sisters.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: There's a great bit of den where Thor tries to
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: hammer Doom and Doom stops him out without any effort
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: at all. What the best need a miracle? The best
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: part is is Thors walking along he sees Steve Rogers. Yeah,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and he knows that Steve because Steve can pick up
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Thor's hammer. So they got shang Shi versus Gambit. You
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: got Mistique facing off against Elena Belova. It's everybody, sure,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: even Baku are facing off against nay More for some reason.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: But there's something fishy about that. Yeah, it's uh, it's
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: you get it. It's it's huge also for some reason,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Professor X is there. Patrick's I was going to say,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: well are there? And Ian McKellen, that's odd that were
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: you not expecting that? Well, no, we knew that was
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: going to happen. We've seen little bits of this trailer
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: and you know, on you know, photographed on people's phones
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: and all that, because they showed it at a convention
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: a while ago. But they've been giving us just teases
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: here and there, but the tickets go on sale today.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: It will be in theaters December eighteenth. And of course
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: you got Spider Man coming up in a couple of weeks.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Well not this weekend, but next weekend.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: So all right.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: There is a video game, a series of video games
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: called Far Cry, and Deadline is reporting that Steve Bishey
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: has joined the cast. Now, the reason I'm interested in
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: this is not just because of Steve Bishemy, but it
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: is show run by Noah Holly. Oh, the Far Cry
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: television series at FX currently undisclosed. Role for Steve Bushmift.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: It's a video game, that's the thing is. I tried
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: to get a video game person to explain it to
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: me and said, it's just like a shooter game kind
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: of thing. But yeah, we don't know much about it
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: except you had me at Noah Holly. Yeah, now this
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: is interesting. Another video game that they're making a TV
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: series of God of War. They are recasting the lead,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Ryan Hurst, who was on Sons of Anarchy. He they
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: got four episodes done, which do you know which one
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: he was on sins Vanmer I don't know, but there
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: he is in his makeup and everything, but he tore
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: his bicep performing a stunt. You kind of need that. Yeah.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: So and the show, they said, has already been delayed
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: long enough, so they are recasting the lead. And again,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: the only reason that I'm interested in this at all
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: is because Ronald D. Moore is the showrunner. He was
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Opie on Sons of Anarchs. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah at him. Okay,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: let's see very quickly. It's a big deal. It may
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: not sound like much to y'all, but it is a
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: big deal. Marvel Comics is leaving New York. Yeah, that's
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: why I read that packing up off. They're moving to Burbank,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: right next door to Marvel Studios. Well, that makes sense.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: So they told their staff you've got a year here
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: and then if you want your job, you gotta go there,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: move to the West Coast. I'm kind of surprised that
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: it's taken this long. Really, they did want them all
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: in the same spot. DC did this a few years ago,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and I guess it's it's been working for them because
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: they're just dominating the comic book sales. But yeah, they've
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: they've been there since the beginning, like nineteen thirty nine
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: in New York on forty second Street. We went there, Rememberville. Yeah,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: let's see. And finally this space Balls too, already making
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: fun of the Mandalorian and Grogu, they've released a plot description. Okay,
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: all right, now, this is going to be lost on
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: a lot of you, but the nerds will know somehow
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Dark Helmet has returned. That right alone is funny.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Forty years after the events of the first space Balls,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: fifty years after the events of Star Wars a New Hope,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: and one year after the events of The devilwares Prata two,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: the Galaxy is once again under threat. A threat so evil,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: so unstoppable, so completely lacking in any original ideas, it
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: has vowed to bring back the past, every last bit
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: of it. With Lone Star and hiding Queen Vespa on
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: the throne and the Schwartz stretched thinner than a franchise
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: releasing TV episodes theatrically, the only hope for the Galaxy
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: is Vespa's undisciplined son, Prince Starburst, and a mysterious palace
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: advisor named Destiny. Together they must find Lone Star, Yogurt,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: and any other iconic legacy characters fans are demanding before
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: they discover the hard way that while some threats you
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: can fight, the reboot is not one of them. I'm
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: here for it all right, Baseballs too, there you and
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: I'm sure they'll have a big presentation this weekend San Diego.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Whatever mel Brooks does, I'm here for it, right,
