- 1:18necessarily super scary CU you know they're trying but I think you need to
- 1:23you need to shut it down that's just my opinion open the
- 1:28book I suppose yeah you need to let them know that they're
- 1:32barking up the wrong tree because you are not going to be any good for them no
- 1:36I'm going to be useless mhm I'm too lazy to right be someone that they could get
- 1:42stuff out of yeah cuz yeah the the books here it looks a really nice book it's
- 1:46still in the rapper looks like a really nice book does it yep all right I wonder
- 1:52if they listen to this show I bet they listen to this show that's why I'm still
- 1:56being super nice and respectful about
- 1:58them M when I don't they seem
- 2:04nice yeah I know I know I'm I'm sure at an individual level they are nice people
- 2:10I just yeah I don't know I'll get around to reading the book one day and completing
- 2:16my homework just don't why no whatever well do you want to have some followup
- 2:23news that might make you sad sure well I sounded more enthusiastic than I
- 2:28probably should about being sad but yeah yeah cuz uh do I yeah well like this
- 2:34week's not [ __ ] sad enough y go on WE kickstarted the same game a couple of
- 2:40years ago didn't we uh Evil Dead 2 yeah yeah we did the ball game uh we also
- 2:46paid an extra $100 each to get dice have you been keeping up to date with what's
- 2:52happening with that game yeah I uh I paid more than that I I got drunk just
- 2:58before the kickstarter ended and I upgraded to the [ __ ] everything like I did
- 3:04yeah yeah yeah I I did keep I did keep up with it h it's even worse for me
- 3:10because I also did the same thing for the Terminator 2 game oh did you so for
- 3:15those who don't know for those who don't know this space goat Productions yeah
- 3:19space goat Productions they made they did Comics they did like the Evil Dead
- 3:23comics and uh and they had a bunch of I guess licenses for various you know
- 3:28properties like the howling and Prett good licenses yeah like not shitty
- 3:33things like Terminator 2 is quite a big one yeah they'd never made a board game
- 3:37before though but when they did there's a Kickstarter for uh the first one I
- 3:41think the Evil Dead one was the first one it was the Evil Dead 2 board game uh
- 3:45and it sounded cool and it raised like over a million dollars I forget exactly
- 3:50how much yep uh and obviously as we just said we got in on it and then uh
- 3:55drunkenly I some of the offerings were dice made out of the actual cabin that
- 4:01the the movie was filmed in which is pretty awesome that they were $100 US
- 4:07for two dice I got my dice did you get your dice no see I've got my
- 4:13dice oh I don't have my dice that's that's all I've gotten but and since
- 4:18since then they went on they did a they did a Kickstarter before they fulfilled
- 4:22the Evil Dead one they did another Kickstarter for the Terminator game and
- 4:25then they were they had another one loaded ready to go for a howling board
- 4:30game and then uh after I guess eventually people started asking where's
- 4:35the board games and then they I I don't want to I I I think they went in with
- 4:41the best of intentions but then they they basically just [ __ ] it all up and
- 4:46they ran out of honestly from the impression I got was that they yeah
- 4:52they've gone very silently out and I honestly do think that they went in
- 4:55going they weren't going in to rip people off or anything like that I think
- 4:58they just got one of these ones where they got too much money yeah and I don't
- 5:02think I don't think they quite well it's like we did too with the kick
- 5:06kickstarters like and I've since seen a lot of other kickstarters say Amanda
- 5:10Palmer said the exactly the same thing about hers recently in in an interview
- 5:15with patreon she said you know like uh we made the mistake on ours with the
- 5:21merch and yep uh it's expensive it's more expensive than you think it is and
- 5:27and I assume with space goat it was the same thing they sold so many copies of
- 5:30it they made all these bonus stuff and it sounds like a lot of money like you
- 5:34know over a million dollars but then you got to pay for everybody's stuff and
- 5:38people only gave like enough money generally speaking for the stuff that
- 5:43they bought but you got to manufacture it yeah I've funded a lot of Kickstarter
- 5:49games mhm and normally they're quite good because I think a lot of people go
- 5:54in knowing that basically this is a pre-order for a game it's not yes but I
- 5:59think with this when they were still designing it from the ground up y yeah
- 6:03like figures the rules they hadn't even finalized any of that stuff and I think
- 6:07that's where they run into trouble oh definitely because they I mean even as
- 6:11recently as a couple months ago they started posting oh here's the box art
- 6:15and everyone was like the [ __ ] box art where's my game like yeah uh and
- 6:20there's a print andplay version of it that you can download the the Evil Dead
- 6:24game but I mean well cuz we don't no I want the [ __ ] Minis and I want all
- 6:28the stuff I paid for um and and they I think they were a
- 6:33little misleading about what was going on because they had said that that they
- 6:36were starting the print run and they hadn't and and basically now everyone's
- 6:40got the shits with them people are threatening to sue them which if if if
- 6:44it doesn't not going to get you anything all it's going to get is everybody
- 6:47screwed because y they don't have much money to begin with if you sue them
- 6:52maybe someone will get some money and then everyone else will just get [ __ ]
- 6:55so lawyers will get money yeah exactly but yeah there's no point in s they have
- 7:02gone quiet I'm still waiting for another update cuz they did do a few updates a
- 7:06while ago and it was basically him saying like sorry we screwed up yeah he
- 7:10was very excited that we're going to try something then they were trying to get
- 7:13more investors yes they ran through that didn't work no because they they went on
- 7:17this platform to attract investors for the company and then everybody from the
- 7:22kickstarter because you could ask questions on the the page for the
- 7:26investors and all the people from the kickstarter went over there by [ __ ]
- 7:29was my [ __ ] game and then all the investors were like like as if why would
- 7:34you ever back that so yeah yeah that was a disaster that was that was a very bad
- 7:40idea on their part I got to say they must have known that was going to happen
- 7:44last update was May 25th and then silence ever since yeah oh that's the
- 7:50thing I was going to say Amanda Palmer offered uh she said when she did her
- 7:53kickstarted cuz she made over a million dollar or something it was the most
- 7:56money any musicians ever made and she said there was like not aent of it left
- 7:59at the end because you had to pay cuz you had to pay for all the stuff that
- 8:03she promised everybody and uh and the thing that the the biggest mistake she
- 8:08made was that she thought oh let's just say free international shipping and I'm
- 8:12sure it'll work out and it cost her over she spent over $100,000 on shipping things to
- 8:19people yeah yeah you can't you can get away with um free shipping in the
- 8:24country you're in not the world yeah so I we've sent many things
- 8:30overseas as part of his podcast and it's expensive I spent a lot of money on
- 8:37those mugs I know I I actually went to get to make a mug and I was like jeez
- 8:42how much they're like it's like $15 a mug or something right I I spent
- 8:47hundreds on those mugs getting them and sending them out everyone better love
- 8:53them well I've got a few of them I like them yeah so yeah but I got my d dice you
- 8:59didn't get yours I didn't get my dice now I'm trying to yeah I want to chase
- 9:03that up now I want my dice I got them but then there was a whole thing about
- 9:08uh and I didn't bother looking into it because I was like you know what I don't
- 9:10want to know but there was a whole uh discussion on the kickstarter about
- 9:15whether or not they were actually made from the cabin or from the whether it
- 9:20was just some [ __ ] wooden dice he found lying around somewhere so I mean
- 9:26they have a certificate of authenticity but uh yeah but I sort of did find a
- 9:31little bit strange that that cin would even still exist well it was being
- 9:36demolished was the story in the kickstarter yeah so the yeah listeners
- 9:41the movie takes place in a in a cabin uh they sh on location somewhere no no no
- 9:47no spoilers for a movie that's [ __ ]
- 9:4930 years old more maybe um f in a cabin and then they were going to demolish the
- 9:55cabin and apparently they discovered that they could buy the wood from the
- 9:58cabin and make dice out of it and then now there's some question as to whether
- 10:02that was true and whether this was just made from some pallets that the guy had
- 10:06on hand so
- 10:11yeah I don't care if they're made from pellets I paid a 100 bucks for them I
- 10:15want them yeah I'm surprised you didn't get yours just because I got it might be
- 10:20because could be because I'm in Australia and yeah International so they
- 10:24might have been holding off until send a lot yeah could could be but
- 11:30nice pissed off you've got yours actually sorry come around and you can
- 11:34uh you can have a roll of them I haven't taken them out of the packet they were
- 11:37in a sealed thing with a certificate of authenticity it's still in there it's
- 11:41the stupidest thing I've spent money on for a long time though really okay it's
- 11:46oh like you could spend $100 to get some really nice dice I got as a part of
- 11:52another Kickstarter I I got a set of [ __ ] metal uh cthulu dice as part of
- 11:57a Kickstarter they're sick any problem is that I'm scared to roll them on my
- 12:01table cuz it's going to take to wreck it yeah but I bet you that it didn't cost a
- 12:05100 bucks they didn't they didn't I add although I did add a I I
- 12:11bought uh you know the I forget the name of the company I don't want to it might
- 12:15be Q Workshop makes s the dice uh for like the cthulu themed ones and they as
- 12:20part of the kickstarter you could add and get I bought I've got like 10 sets
- 12:25of dice with it I've got more you know more role playing game than I I'll ever
- 12:30need now and they're cool like tentacle themed sweet different colors I lost my
- 12:36dice no I still have lots of Star Wars dice but I don't have any other dice oh
- 12:42okay like D and D dice I've only got Star Wars I got a few sets of those I
- 12:47got a few sets for the role playing one and I got a few sets for X-Wing and I
- 12:50got a few sets for Amada oh right cuz Xing ones are different too and
- 12:55yeah well I got to keep my D and D ones cuz we still we're still playing playing
- 12:59Little D and D here do you watch uh critical role no I do not I've gotten
- 13:04into it a bit lately I've seen it I that's part of the geek andry oh God I
- 13:11can't even remember the geek and sunry yeah yeah it's uh it's it's a bunch of
- 13:15voice actors they're all actual voice actors I think all of them are uh and
- 13:20they play D and D and it's good it's I
- 13:24like it it's uh it's it's literally a bunch of people playing
- 13:29so it's different to some of the other stuff like um like Acquisitions
- 13:34Incorporated the penny arcade one and if listeners know the Adventure Zone the
- 13:38one that the maoy brothers and and father do um it's different to those
- 13:43because those are kind of shows whereas this is whereas this is just people
- 13:49playing this is people playing D and they're they're entertaining because
- 13:51they're actors and they're doing voices and their [ __ ] the voices are
- 13:54fantastic um I actually I was trying to listen to it uh as a podcast but I found
- 14:00it hard to follow because I'm not I don't know what their faces look like
- 14:04I'm not even quite sure how many of them are there and when they do and when they
- 14:08do voices I can't [ __ ] tell who's talking because they like they're act
- 14:13because they're voice actors like Matt merer the the DM He he'll do a voice for
- 14:18an NPC and I'm like who's talking like it's it's actually it's cool but I think
- 14:25the video version of it works better because you can see oh he's doing a
- 14:27voice rather than who the the [ __ ] is this person who just walked into the
- 14:30room yep so but I recommend it it's uh it's good if you if you want to see what
- 14:36actual DND d looks like I mean they they've been playing it for 30 years I
- 14:40think as a group so oh wow so they definitely know each
- 14:45other yeah it's not uncomfortable and stuff it's what an actual group of
- 14:48friends playing D and D is like I think uh they happen to be voice actors so
- 14:52it's a little different but uh yeah yeah
- 14:56yeah it's good so comic is on that means we've got a bunch of trailers and stuff
- 15:02that have dropped in the last few days and uh and uh a lot of them aren't
- 15:08good yep that's true I can confirm I'm just going straight out there like yeah
- 15:15like I watched the Aquaman one they have no idea what they're doing
- 15:20in this universe do they ah this was this a
- 15:24prequel it must be because it's it's before he's he's an Aquaman he's just he
- 15:31he's it's got his growing up as a kid in it and he learns to talk to fish
- 15:38I I'm still I like James Juan a lot and I'm
- 15:44like losing faith now that this is going to be good cuz the trailer
- 15:48looks if I'm honest it looks [ __ ] awful it looks to me it looks really
- 15:53awful and so I'm I'm like oh God but
- 15:58I've seen people online who are like Yay it's really I'm excited about then
- 16:02people liked the other movies so yeah I I I think this is people trying to tell
- 16:07themselves that they're going to like it it looks very bad in my opinion like it
- 16:13really yeah I I I don't see it I just don't see it being a good movie and I
- 16:18it's sort of also goes back to they really rush to get this universe created
- 16:22yeah that's true they should have done these movies first and set the
- 16:27tone cuz I could have set the tone maybe built up to it and then also found out
- 16:31what what was working and what wasn't working instead of just committing straight
- 16:36to yeah this dark thing that no one really likes well this one doesn't this
- 16:42one seems more goofy but I don't know if it's in a good way or not and then just
- 16:46visually this looks like more of the same it might as well be a an animated
- 16:52film for all the actual you know
- 16:55locations in the trailer it it's I mean you could say that about a lot of
- 17:01stuff I guess yeah but but that the second trailer I watched I'm think I'm a
- 17:06lot more hopeful for is it Shazam it's Shazam Shazam looks really
- 17:11good which I was like I was not expecting to think because although I
- 17:16like uh it's Zack Levi as Shazam I like him because I I actually liked Chuck for
- 17:22some reason Chuck was great desite Adam balwi
- 17:27involvement uh yeah that was a good show yeah I wasn't expecting to like this at all but
- 17:33no it's just it does seem fun yeah is this part of the universe or is this one
- 17:40of the Standalone movies cuz I'm confused with what they're doing now I
- 17:42think it's in Universe there's a shot in the trailer of like a batang like so I'm
- 17:47assuming that that they aware of and then there was a newspaper that said
- 17:50Superman so I'm assuming it's in Universe okay but I laughed out loud at
- 17:55a couple of things in the trailer it looks pretty funny like I do like cuz it
- 18:00is pretty much what would happen if a kid just got superpowers and became big
- 18:04and just wanded around doing became like a guy with superpowers yeah I think it
- 18:08looks pretty good just go around yeah I've got I'm superpow i y that your
- 18:12phone's charged like yeah it's funny it looks looks all right so I'm optimistic
- 18:17about that I will see that yeah but yeah the reason why I get confused is because
- 18:22the Joker movie is coming out and that's not in the universe no and it's they
- 18:27announced a bunch of stuff this week that I'm just like H you had I was
- 18:30interested in this before even though it's a joker origin story which I think
- 18:33is [ __ ] it's like Jaan Phoenix maybe it'll be good and then they're like oh
- 18:38yeah his real name's [ __ ] what do they say his name was it doesn't matter he
- 18:42doesn't need a real name I don't not that kind of backstory like
- 18:48just okay he will be named Arthur Fleck I don't know what I was expecting but
- 18:53it's not this like no it's definitely not this I think it's always been good
- 18:58except for yeah Batman like in all the games and the comics and everything it's
- 19:02he's just there right he's he's a joker we don't know where he came from he's
- 19:07just this crazy guy doing crazy [ __ ] yeah he and but now now it's a guy
- 19:13called Arthur and they're going to link him to the way so he's going to be
- 19:17directly not not not like he's not going to be Bruce's friend or anything but
- 19:20he's going to have past dealings with the Wayne family and they're going to
- 19:24it's just no don't do that
- 19:29just just yeah just stop although I guess you could argue the Wayne's are
- 19:34like one of the richest families in Gotham so they're going to be involved
- 19:37in everything but it's just it's just all this not everybody needs to be [ __ ]
- 19:41best friends with everybody no The Joker can come from
- 19:45somewhere else there are other cities in the universe of of Batman right he
- 19:50doesn't have to have come from Gotham he doesn't I don't need his name to be
- 19:54[ __ ] Arthur like did you play the Batman Telltale Game no
- 20:00um because the jok is in that but it just starts off that he's already The
- 20:06Joker but he's not quite the Joker yet but he's just meets Wayne meets him
- 20:10Bruce Wayne meets him in an insanus is Right meets him in Arkham and then they
- 20:15sort of form this friendship and then he just see the Joker get crazier and
- 20:19crazier right that was sort of a good origin story but yeah you don't need to
- 20:23go yeah further back or anything about where he came from and
- 20:29that his name's Arthur sorry I just think of Arthur from um he's
- 20:35guide I wish it was I just see walking a guy walking around with a tail I wish it
- 20:39was uh what's his name that would be great uh I can never remember his name
- 20:45the actor Tim from the office Arthur from
- 20:50guide someone someone cors [ __ ] Jen will correct me when she hears

- 22:34prostitution sexual favors territory yeah we don't want to be involved in
- 22:37that no probably not no did you watch the Godzilla
- 22:42trailer I did and I think this focused
- 22:47on the part of the last movie that I hated the most and that was the
- 22:52people right CU remember the last movie where they were trying to make you feel
- 22:57something for this family yes that I did not care about at
- 23:02all show me Godzilla fighting [ __ ] well you got a bit of that at the end but I
- 23:08yeah I agree I and also the my biggest problem with the the first one was that
- 23:14it can't revolve around a family because it's [ __ ] Godzilla Godzilla goes
- 23:17where Godzilla goes like why is he why is he following this kid around like
- 23:22everywhere this kid goes Godzilla shows up stop it doesn't make S it's 11 she's got power
- 23:29oh in this in this trailer yes I'm talking in the first one everywhere
- 23:33Godzilla just keeps showing up everywhere it's like like that's I
- 23:37didn't they didn't buy that they they really tried to forc down the that that
- 23:41family down our throats right and yeah yeah it should have been about Godzilla
- 23:46this one yeah Millie B I think this is more so the trailer is going to be
- 23:50showing that I think the trailer is trying to show hey there is a story but
- 23:54I think once we go to see the movie it's just going to be big monsters wailing on
- 23:57each other there's a it seems like there's a lot of monsters in this
- 24:00one yeah I saw there was Godzilla there was Mothra what who's the other one uh three
- 24:06hedra yeah I don't know what his name is it's a Hydra of some sort it's a trra
- 24:11trra cuz it's three trra yeah I think that's his name trra yeah we'll go with
- 24:15that it's trra yeah and Charizard
- 24:18Godzilla Godzilla Mothra and trra and Pikachu they the three big
- 24:24ones and Mecca Godzilla I'd love to see Mecha Godzilla in this
- 24:31and Magikarp I don't think that's going to happen I'd love to see Magikarp in a monster
- 24:36movie just get stood
- 24:39on so yeah I I I don't I I I feel like the trailer didn't allow me to form an
- 24:45opinion of the film because it's just it was just a bunch of eye candy almost it
- 24:48didn't really tell me anything so no I'm I'm really hoping they have
- 24:54learned and they just go to the we just want to see Godzilla yes that's why we
- 24:59want in a Godzilla movie
- 25:03Godzilla I know it's crazy we've we've
- 25:07got some a couple of pieces of Disney news and I don't know which one do you
- 25:13want to start with uh all right well we still we just
- 25:18stick with the movies or do we want to say this for after dark no I think uh we
- 25:22could talk about oh maybe you're right yeah yeah let's let's leave James gun
- 25:27getting fir for after dark all right I'm just giving people a bit of a yeah we
- 25:32don't want we don't want to get fired by Disney in 10 years for saying the wrong
- 25:35thing so uh yes yeah oops I accidentally deleted
- 25:41what we were going to discuss and now I've got a formula happening I'm
- 25:45confused I don't know what I've done what the well it's all right luckily I
- 25:49know what that said before Disney Comcast dropped out of the bidding war
- 25:55for Fox which I'm surprised that they dropped out I don't know why they did
- 25:59well it was the price was getting up there maybe they were like you know what
- 26:03no because I mean I don't know Disney's Disney seemed pretty keen on
- 26:09it I think Disney seemed pretty keen on it but like at last I heard Comcast had
- 26:15actually offered more yes but then Disney was I mean I
- 26:20think they could match any offer from Comcast at this point so look honestly I
- 26:25want Disney to win this because I want
- 26:30X-Men back I want yeah I want them to merge again i' I was because you know
- 26:35they canceled uh the Fantastic for comic books cuz sorry that doesn't make sense
- 26:40to people Disney owns Marvel and Marvel yes canceled Fantastic 4 because Fox
- 26:45earns the rights to some of those characters they can't make movies about
- 26:47them so yeah and all was happening with basically they canel the comics because
- 26:52they kept making all these terrible movies and the comics are going why are
- 26:56we going to give you free advertising for you ruining our characters and X-Men
- 27:01you listeners who don't know if you notice in in the Marvel movies they
- 27:05don't refer to anyone as X-Men even if they technically are X-Men like Scarlet
- 27:09Witch and uh Quicksilver and that were technically from the X-Men franchise uh
- 27:13but they don't call them mutants or don't call them X-Men because they don't
- 27:17own the film rights they sold them so yes they would then get all that stuff
- 27:21back mhm the other reason why I think Disney are going for it because Disney
- 27:26are also starting their own streaming service soon yeah and getting Fox's back
- 27:32back catalog as something to stream on there would be quite nice as well so
- 27:37that actually end up saving them money in the long run yeah this is they're
- 27:42going to get there's a lot of stuff they're going to get with this if it
- 27:46goes through yeah there's a ton well the the government said it's all okay as
- 27:51long as I think they have to sell off the news department or something quickly
- 27:56okay they can't hold on to that part of fox I'm not sure Disney would want the Fox
- 28:03News no not quite sure that they would they'd really want that
- 28:08so [ __ ] Disney is Unstoppable at this point I guess okay they
- 28:14just they just seem yeah they just they're going to own everything keep own
- 28:19everything make everything but they they're making good [ __ ] though yes they
- 28:25are like they're not just turning out crap over and over
- 28:30yeah I know I'm mad at them a little bit
- 28:32this week but yes I know but you know
- 28:37whatever yeah talk about that in the after dark sorry after party after party
- 28:43you [ __ ] did this you you got me saying the wrong thing I said nothing
- 28:47yeah this week I did not mention I want to call it after
- 28:53dark so yes one step closer to Disney uh being your landlord taking over
- 28:58like to submit to our Supreme rulers now
- 29:03yeah yeah just get that out the way they also uh Reviving The Clone Wars
- 29:08technically that's Disney Disney news um now I never I never watched I never got
- 29:14into this no I think we just I think we were the wrong age for
- 29:19it yeah also the movies the wrong because we watched the movies and we
- 29:23were like oh that's the Clone Wars M and then
- 29:29yeah why would we want to relive more of that cuz I have watched a few few of the
- 29:35episodes they're not bad I can see why I do have a bit of a
- 29:39following but I've heard it's pretty good what I've yeah I've tried to watch but I just
- 29:45can't commit that type of time but yeah with the original series evidently there
- 29:51were a lot of stories that sort of got cut off they didn't quite get to finish
- 29:56yeah so they get to come back and finish off their story oh that's that's
- 30:02good yeah maybe uh I know a lot of
- 30:05people like like Captain Rex people love
- 30:10him he's a stormtrooper of some sort he's a clone trooper isn't he was your
- 30:16Clone Trooper yeah see I I didn't really watch it that much he's a clone of um D
- 30:21Jango Fett it's Tam Morrison right well probably he probably doesn't the voice
- 30:27kiwi yeah well they all are no it's just we
- 30:31we knew the we had in our heads what Boba Fett sounded like and then they
- 30:37completely changed that when they brought out episode 2 yeah so yeah it's
- 30:42it's only going to be on Disney's streaming service apparently so that's
- 30:46starting next year isn't it uh I don't
- 30:50know but I'm assuming that's going to be a streaming service I'll end up
- 30:54subscribing to because they're going to have everything [ __ ] anything that I
- 31:00want to see on it they're G have Star Wars and the Marvel movies although I'm
- 31:04not I not haven't really watched any of
- 31:08the Marvel movies again well except for
- 31:14except for two of them that I'm [ __ ] pissed off about this week but that'll be in the
- 31:21Afterparty um yeah I'm not yeah but you've got the
- 31:25option to go and watch them yeah true sometimes that's all you know you just
- 31:29want you like having the option there you may not take it take yourself up on
- 31:34it but yeah or I say like something that I'd hopefully see cuz in Australia we
- 31:38don't have Buffy on any streaming service so I'm Hing Disney come out here
- 31:43we might get Buffy and I can sit down and continue watching that I
- 31:47think I think it was on Netflix here it was on Netflix but not in Australia okay
- 31:54and then I don't know if it is here anymore I'm not sure me and H were
- 31:57watching it enjoying it and then cuz when I was able to use a VPN to get into
- 32:01the American one but then when they shut that down yeah um I'd have to go and get
- 32:07my DVDs and I'm not putting a DVD in but
- 32:12you paid so much money for those things I did and I just I can't bring
- 32:17myself to watch DVDs anymore I paid so much I'd have to probably put it in the
- 32:22Xbox and the Xbox will probably go hey you haven't watched the Blu-ray thing in
- 32:27Forever I need to update the player and yeah it's just too much effort yeah but
- 32:33hey you can just watch the new Buffy that they're making
- 32:39I'm I I'd really like it to be sort of not completely new reboot but just sort
- 32:45of picks up now no it's a reboot it's
- 32:50apparent well it's it's just wen's doing it it's a reboot so they're going to
- 32:54modernize it which I guess Buffy could do with that cuz it's very
- 32:59uh it did not age well no no so apparently there well especially the
- 33:05first season yeah um it did get better oh yeah definitely but it was always
- 33:10very cheesy and and it had a goofy tone that I think puts people off of bit but
- 33:15you know it's what we grew up with so you know so it's a it's a reboot um but
- 33:21that's really all I know about it yeah that that's pretty much all there is at
- 33:24the moment yeah reboot yeah they've just
- 33:28announced yeah and which I'm fine they don't need to announce everything for it
- 33:33until they actually we get closer to it yeah but I yeah I would really hope it's
- 33:39not like just a complete from fresh I'd just like to see
- 33:43it just pick up now from I know the comics did
- 33:48extend cuz it finished at season 7 then Comics did continue the story on but I'd
- 33:53be happy with just pick up season 8 just go get Sarah Michelle G back have her
- 33:59been a libr librarian yeah no because you well as
- 34:04long as Jes is in it oh yeah the best they they now own well Jes owns the
- 34:11magic shop yep then get her in the library get Willow like these people they're not
- 34:18working they would love to get some work again Brendan will [ __ ] do it for
- 34:25free the only one who wouldn't come back is what's her name Emma Coffield she's does
- 34:30not seem to give a [ __ ] about Buffy anymore yeah but maybe start PID those
- 34:36bills again yeah she she'll show up for conventions she just won't be happy
- 34:39about it is what it is how it seems to
- 34:42me you want to sing no no all right
- 34:47fine but yeah Buffy reboot okay I just it's just it's the only reason I'm
- 34:53because I love Buffy and Buffy's great don't [ __ ] ruin it please
- 34:58I just please don't ruin it although I I mean you can't you can't go back and
- 35:03retroactively ruin it so no it's fine it's just yeah I know as I said like I
- 35:09prefer like if it just continued off I think it could be interesting instead of
- 35:14going back to the start and then explaining the whole thing again and why
- 35:19can't we just have new things like no one wants was a thing
- 35:25stranger things we got that that was that's perfect it's a new thing and
- 35:29everyone loves it yeah and now and watch they'll [ __ ] reboot that next year
- 35:33like oh reboot stranger things remember stranger things yeah I do because it was on [ __ ]
- 35:38yesterday but there are a ton of new things that go
- 35:42nowhere yeah I know well they were back in the day too I
- 35:47guess I'm just grumpy you you got to you got to follow the
- 35:52money and the money is just getting a name that people already know and
- 35:57re-releasing it I know it's just a business decision along with other bunch
- 36:02of other Bad Business decisions that were made this this [Laughter]
- 36:07week leave that for the Afterparty speaking of Bad Business
- 36:14decisions Hulu
- 36:19Yep they're going to be making a new television show speaking of vampire
- 36:23related Bad Business decisions yeah based on and is vampire Chronicles and
- 36:29I'm what look who that's I like the
- 36:34vampire Chronicles no this is another thing I grew up with when I was a
- 36:38teenager I liked vampires a lot this will surprise nobody and I love
- 36:44Interview with the Vampire and I read all the books everybody at school read
- 36:48all the all a whole friend group read them probably you didn't Luke I didn't
- 36:53no I didn't think so I was reading Star Wars books right but Dan almost certainly did
- 36:58uh and I know Dave did and and and Jenna also when she was young did it it it
- 37:04appealed to us at the time does anybody care about them anymore is my question
- 37:09no well Hulu
- 37:12right Hulu thinks that someone does okay cuz they they made a sequel to the movie
- 37:19didn't they yes they combined which was terrible
- 37:24well it's it has a certain charm it has a certain charm and also it has a friend
- 37:30of mine in it so I'm biased but people can be
- 37:35people can good in bad things yeah good point they made Queen of the Damned
- 37:40which is uh that's one it combined the vampire
- 37:45lat and queen of the damn books into one movie and it's cuz isn't it in the
- 37:51original one in interview of the vampire he says he doesn't know who it is but
- 37:55then lat actually does know the original vampire or some crap uh I have no idea
- 38:01the original it's been a long time since I read the books the original
- 38:04vampire Akasha is the is the Queen of the Damned and her husband whose Name
- 38:10Escapes me they're from ancient Egypt and they the original vampires that is what I
- 38:16remember it's been a while but Akasha was played by Aliyah in the
- 38:22movie who sadly died shortly afterwards in a plane crash I think oh H and it's a
- 38:29pretty good movie if you're if you're
- 38:30like '90s uh bands and uh and cheesy
- 38:36vampire movies it's pretty good well I just is this uh is this a bit late cuz
- 38:43vampire is it is a weird I didn't they just announce recently that that they're
- 38:47doing a vampire leat movie with Jared Le I'm sure I I thought so I'm sure they
- 38:54announced that cuz I'm I'm pretty sure he twe a photo of the script or
- 38:58something a while back so does this mean that's not happening or is this just an extra
- 39:03thing Artic I mean I could have probably checked that beforehand but that's not
- 39:08why people listen to this show no Jared letter will play a VI vampire in new
- 39:12Spiderman spit off oh God he's going to
- 39:15be [ __ ] morous is he yes [ __ ]
- 39:20hell how could he um is he Joker really wants to be a
- 39:26vampire oh God can we can we forget about
- 39:31that he's a I like Jared Leto but [ __ ] me he's hitle Miss
- 39:36sometimes I I don't like him mainly
- 39:41because of how he prepared himself for the role of
- 39:46Joker for the Joker and yep you you're not into method acting I'm going to be
- 39:52crazy here have a black rat ooh yeah
- 39:57you're you're crazy the [ __ ] what would okay what would you well it is crazy you
- 40:02don't give animals as pets what what would you have done to to
- 40:08create the vibe that you were a kind of a sociopath if you were casting the role
- 40:13as the for this yeah Matt I think you'll appreciate this as well I would just
- 40:18act sure just get up there read your lines
- 40:23do what the director tells you go home
- 40:30well tell that to Daniel de Lewis that's all I'm
- 40:35saying wasn't Jared letter upset that he filmed like all these extra scenes that
- 40:39weren't in the movie yeah he gave him options if that was how he worded it he
- 40:44he did yeah again lots of options read the script
- 40:53Jared do we uh do we need a new segment it's like Luke's acting tips I thought
- 40:59that was a pretty good acting tip no I'm saying you only need the one oh you only
- 41:03need the one that's it just show up and read the lines yeah very do what the director
- 41:09says go home fair enough actually I I can't do that every everything I've ever
- 41:14been in I've always changed the lines you have to skip the words you can't
- 41:19pronounce skip the words I can't pronounce or actually well most things
- 41:24that I've been in we just made up the lines on the the spot no you don't say
- 41:29it like that you don't say it like that you say it was it was improvised that's
- 41:33the ah improvised yeah that's the cool way to say what you just
- 41:38said see I'm just honest yeah oh we just made that [ __ ] up as we ran along no no
- 41:44no some of the scenes were improvised that makes it sound like you're a you're
- 41:48a better actor ah I think I'm an okay actor b a yes and
- 41:55improv yes and M
- 42:00AIDS yeah that's pretty much how our improv went back in the
- 42:0590s the joke was just always
- 42:09AIDS yeah sorry Disney so video games um
- 42:15yes Todd Howard from Bethesda sort of has announced that don't be expecting a
- 42:21Morrow wind or a Fallout one remake which I'm sort of weird that he spoke
- 42:26about Fallout one yeah I was not considered that would be a thing but all
- 42:30right no because that's actually a game I do like to go back and play now fall
- 42:35out the original is [ __ ] great I like the second one better only because you
- 42:40don't have that annoying time frame at the start again I've never played
- 42:44through the second one I really should the second one is funnier okay cuz I I I
- 42:50really I I played the first one back when it came out that was a great game y
- 42:56uh and do I still have your original copies of that I think may I think I
- 43:00gave them back to you but I had I think you did give them back before you moved
- 43:05but you had them for a very long time yeah as in like 20 years I had them I
- 43:09think but that's right I own I think I've got those discs I also have I own
- 43:15it on Gog I own it on Steam like I'm covered I buy games twice so many times
- 43:20now because I forget that I have them and it's [ __ ] stupid and I need to
- 43:23stop doing it like it's ridiculous I log I I'll Gog it'll be like oh this game is
- 43:28on sale and I'm like oh great I'll pick it up it's only a couple of bucks so I'm
- 43:31I I mean you know but but still it doesn't that's not the point and then
- 43:34I'll log into steam and be like oh [ __ ] I already have that what a [ __ ] yeah
- 43:37so you you You' spent a couple of dollars a few times for a game you're
- 43:41not going to play yes exactly although in some cases it's a game that I pirated
- 43:47uh when I was younger so that's that's that's Karma quite happy to give money
- 43:52back that's Karma yeah like Monkey Island for example I have I have
- 43:57uh I paid extra for for thimble weed Park to uh compensate for pirating
- 44:03Monkey Island as a kid I still need to finish that dible weed Park yeah it's
- 44:09good it's good game oh I'm enjoying it but yeah remaster of marind would be
- 44:15good except there's already a ton of them on the Internet so they don't
- 44:19really need to make one yeah like if if you really want it yeah you could get
- 44:22you could get you could play it with Skyrim Graphics there's a mod for that
- 44:26fans already did it so I think it's not something they really need yeah I'm not
- 44:31surprised that they're not doing it I I also don't think a remake would marwi
- 44:35would not be as good as you remember it's not I've tried to play they did
- 44:39make it look prettier at the time it was [ __ ] mind-blowing because it was it
- 44:42was fully 3D and you could go anywhere and do anything now it's yeah it doesn't
- 44:47have some of the refinements that that
- 44:50Oblivion and Skyrim have so it's yeah yeah so yeah that but that's part
- 44:56of reason why I think they won't go back and do it cuz it's not just updating the
- 45:00graphics here you go they would have to go back and just completely redesign
- 45:03that game for sure and why would you go back and do that when you can be working
- 45:07on new game so I'm fine but yeah people don't ask for a remake of the original
- 45:13Fallout just go play that it's still a great game yeah and the game play you
- 45:17know they make games like that now because because that game that I I
- 45:22really like the turn-based combat in it I've been playing um I've been playing
- 45:25it for a long time but I I started playing a little bit again is pillars of
- 45:29Eternity because I I love all those old role playing games but I I think I
- 45:34prefer the turn-based combat of um yeah
- 45:38of Fallout just because it I don't know I guess it's easier so maybe that's why
- 45:44but yeah that's what I've always sort of gone back to that's how I like to play
- 45:48cuz to me it's more strategic yeah than just like Wasteland 2 Wasteland 2 is a
- 45:53good example of it recently yeah that's that's another one I need to go back I
- 45:57can finish that's coming out on switch I got up to the F have to buy I got up to
- 46:01the first fight died and then stopped playing really no that's a good game
- 46:07it's coming out on switch I'm going have to buy again pillars of Eternity 2 is
- 46:10coming out on switch that's [ __ ] the switch is killing it I will probably be getting
- 46:16something to play in switch cuz I go for surger in October so I'll be in hospital
- 46:19for a week so I'm going to be using my switch for that week I can recommend
- 46:23some games I got some got some stuff on there that I uh oh man Hollow Knight get
- 46:28Hollow Knight it's really good why do I know that name did we discuss that
- 46:33recently yeah we you've we've we've uh spoken to the developers like a bunch of
- 46:38times at facts Luke you you know you know the people who made the
- 46:43game that's why it sounds so familiar yeah they're from Adelaide team Cherry
- 46:48it's a really good game and I'm not just saying that because because we didn't
- 46:52know them beforehand we know them because they made the game and we we we liked it so
- 46:57Did we tell you we saw the guys from armed and gelatinous at PAX East oh
- 47:01those guys that was a fun game yeah it's a [ __ ] great game it's even better
- 47:06now we played it at at East yeah I unfortunately at the moment still in
- 47:11Early Access and I'm refusing to give money to Early Access games I have stopped doing
- 47:16that cuz what happens is I play it now when it's early
- 47:21access and then I don't go back to it when the full game's out
- 47:25I'm there game i' I know I would have liked and probably played a lot more if
- 47:30I had the full game but yeah people should go and buy this give yeah give
- 47:34him money for Early Access yes win just because I don't do
- 47:40something doesn't mean that you do the same as me yep sorry guys make your own
- 47:45decisions Neil Blum Camp yeah he uh wants to make a game
- 47:52okay so he's just all he did was went to
- 47:56Twitter and just basically went to any game shudio he could think of and just
- 48:01went I have a game I want to direct with Mex has one go best how thises one go about it
- 48:06right and how's it going for
- 48:10him uh oh they don't have Cliffy B did
- 48:14respond of course which he doesn't make games anymore though does
- 48:19he um I think he will be going I think he did make his own shudio but now he's
- 48:24going back mainstream or something but yeah he went number one seek funing with
- 48:29a fancy PowerPoint in Charisma number two have Publishers arbitrarily approve
- 48:33or disapprove for weird reasons three if approved enjoy the [Music] stress
- 48:40fair but then uh he did actually get yeah he did actually get an actual
- 48:46response though which I forget from what shudio was like yeah have a chat with us
- 48:50and he went okay so we might be getting something from him so it's a Mech game
- 48:55we don't know any details about it all that's all he said is he'd like to
- 49:00direct in in quotes a game with mechs okay cuz uh you know head brain schemes
- 49:07who did the shutter Run games just put out Mech Warrior the new Mech Warrior
- 49:11which I have I haven't played yet um which is a turn-based combat game like
- 49:15Fallout I guess except it's I don't think there a story as such it's more
- 49:19about missions and combat but uh I guess I'm just wondering if it's that kind of
- 49:24game or is it like a Hawkin style first person shooter we don't anything like
- 49:27that no details nothing okay well so we don't even know to even
- 49:33see the light of day does he know anything about Game
- 49:38Theory I would say he has no idea I bet he has a great story and that's why he
- 49:43needs someone else to come up with the game that's probably which yeah he cuz a
- 49:49game can actually be a better way to get a story across because instead of having
- 49:54like 2 hours to give everything you've got 10 hours to get your story out there
- 49:59so yeah but the thing with a game you need to well I don't need to tell you there's
- 50:05other things you need to worry about like you know psychologically keeping people
- 50:10invested in the game versus just you know well did you hey if I get a Met
- 50:16game like Titanfall 2 I love that game that just that game I
- 50:21wish i' have got more love than what I did that's like $6 on the cuz the sales
- 50:25on right now the ultimate Xbox sale and I was looking at it but I'm like I don't
- 50:29think I'll play it but I oh but single story great you will you will have
- 50:35feelings for your robot for your Mech I just don't know if I'm going to have
- 50:39time to play it so and but but then I was like it's only
- 50:42$6 like it might be worth the risk so I just want I got to stop collecting games
- 50:48that I'm not going to play but six bucks is the second one was a lot better than
- 50:52the first one in the first cuz it had a single player campaign in story The
- 50:56Single play was yeah multiplayer yeah like there was story there but you had
- 51:00to go hunting for it right like the original Destiny where
- 51:06there was a story somewhere but I still don't know where that story
- 51:11is I didn't even play the sequel that yeah but if you do get a chance I would
- 51:15recommend playing Titan 4 to all right I'll see I like I said I just don't know
- 51:19I'll play it so I I don't want to slap down a big $6 on
- 51:24it that's all for this we thank you for listening and we hope you enjoyed the
