Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Welcome to the Large nerdron Collider. The podcast.
0:14
Speaker 1: It's all about the key things happening in the world
0:16
Speaker 1: around us and how I'm very excited we are about them.
0:19
Speaker 1: I'm Jonathan Strickland and with me is nobody. But that's
0:24
Speaker 1: because Ariel had a lot of travel this past week
0:28
Speaker 1: and she needs some time to catch up on things,
0:30
Speaker 1: so she suggested I do a quick update episode so
0:33
Speaker 1: that we don't just spontaneously skip a week, as we
0:36
Speaker 1: are often wont to do. Now that being said, we
0:40
Speaker 1: do have some stuff coming up at the end of
0:42
Speaker 1: this month August twenty twenty five. So for one thing,
0:46
Speaker 1: dragon Con is at the end of August beginning of September,
0:50
Speaker 1: Ariel's participating in some stuff over there. I will be
0:53
Speaker 1: safely at home playing with my dog, and then right
0:56
Speaker 1: after dragon Con, I'll be going on a vacation. So
1:00
Speaker 1: I anticipate that we will have no new episodes for
1:03
Speaker 1: August twenty ninth. Definitely not an episode on September fifth,
1:07
Speaker 1: because I will be on a boat with no access
1:10
Speaker 1: to internet at that point, but after that will be
1:13
Speaker 1: back as per normal. And there's also no question this
1:18
Speaker 1: week because that doesn't make any sense. But I will
1:22
Speaker 1: say I actually saw two movies since the last time
1:25
Speaker 1: Ariel and I recorded. First up, I saw the new
1:28
Speaker 1: The Naked Gun film, which I thought was okay. You know,
1:32
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was great, but it also wasn't bad.
1:35
Speaker 1: It made some jokes that definitely were transgressive, but mostly
1:39
Speaker 1: it was just very silly, and I'm on board with that.
1:42
Speaker 1: I think Liam Neeson was mostly fine in the role.
1:46
Speaker 1: Occasionally he was quite good. I thought Pamela Anderson's performance
1:50
Speaker 1: was literally the highlight of the movie. That woman deserves
1:53
Speaker 1: her flowers for being willing to be so dang silly.
1:57
Speaker 1: She did a great job, So I guess it a
2:00
Speaker 1: mild recommendation. I think it's okay to wait for it
2:04
Speaker 1: to come out on streaming, which you might be forced
2:08
Speaker 1: to do because I don't know if it's still in
2:09
Speaker 1: theaters like you had a very short run in the
2:12
Speaker 1: theaters near me. I also saw Weapons, the new film
2:17
Speaker 1: by Zach Kreiger as the director who also did Barbarian.
2:20
Speaker 1: He was also a member of the Whitest Kids. You know,
2:23
Speaker 1: a lot of y'all out there may have already seen
2:25
Speaker 1: this movie. It has been incredibly popular, even when I
2:29
Speaker 1: saw it. It was at an off time and the
2:32
Speaker 1: theater still had a pretty good number of people in it,
2:35
Speaker 1: which included by the way, a bebe so quick public
2:38
Speaker 1: service announcement, don't bring your bebe to a horror movie.
2:42
Speaker 1: I understand that parents have limited opportunities to engage in
2:45
Speaker 1: activities that they enjoy. I get that. I understand, like
2:50
Speaker 1: I can't get a sitter, and I really want to
2:52
Speaker 1: see this movie. But here's the thing. One of the
2:55
Speaker 1: consequences of being a parent to a baby is that
2:58
Speaker 1: you don't get to do all the stuff you usually
3:01
Speaker 1: would love to do. You just have to suck it
3:03
Speaker 1: up and endure it because you're a parent, and that's
3:06
Speaker 1: what that means. It's unfair also to inflict upon a
3:11
Speaker 1: paying audience the experience of hearing your baby understandably crying
3:16
Speaker 1: while being subjected to loud noises in a movie theater.
3:19
Speaker 1: It was not a fun experience for any of us,
3:22
Speaker 1: So don't do it anyway. As for the movie itself,
3:26
Speaker 1: I actually really really liked it. In fact, I loved Weapons.
3:31
Speaker 1: I liked Barbarian. I had some issues with it, but
3:34
Speaker 1: I much prefer Weapons to Barbarian. It's one of those
3:38
Speaker 1: movies where the less you know going in the better.
3:41
Speaker 1: So if you haven't seen it yet, avoid any more
3:44
Speaker 1: information about it and then go see it, assuming you
3:47
Speaker 1: like horror movies. That is. It also has a very
3:50
Speaker 1: slow build I will say that, like I was starting
3:53
Speaker 1: to get worried as I was watching because it was
3:57
Speaker 1: such a I like slow builds, like I like a
3:59
Speaker 1: slow burned with a movie, but this was starting to
4:02
Speaker 1: feel it. You know where you're thinking, wow, this movie
4:06
Speaker 1: is going to be long, and it is. It's a
4:08
Speaker 1: little over two hours, but it feels long in that
4:12
Speaker 1: build up. However, once things start to pay off, the
4:17
Speaker 1: pace picks up considerably and the payoff is phenomenal. It
4:21
Speaker 1: is worth it, so highly recommended. If you like horror movies,
4:27
Speaker 1: you owe it to yourself to see this. I think
4:29
Speaker 1: it works great on the big screen, so I recommend
4:32
Speaker 1: seeing it in a theater if you can. Obviously, if
4:36
Speaker 1: you can't, then you know you can wait till streaming.
4:39
Speaker 1: I don't think it'll hurt it. Although the sound design
4:42
Speaker 1: on this movie I feel works best if you are
4:46
Speaker 1: watching it in a theater. There's one moment in particular
4:50
Speaker 1: where you can't see what's happening on screen, but you
4:54
Speaker 1: can hear something, and the entire theater where I was
4:59
Speaker 1: react did like it was one of those oh kind
5:03
Speaker 1: of moments. So if you can see it in a
5:07
Speaker 1: theater with a good sound system, definitely make the effort.
5:11
Speaker 1: It is worth it in my opinion. All Right, so
5:14
Speaker 1: now to some news stuff. Now, I'm not going to
5:15
Speaker 1: do the whole thirty seconds or less thing because that
5:18
Speaker 1: means having to do way more editing and it's just me.
5:21
Speaker 1: So here's a quick rundown on what was in our
5:24
Speaker 1: thirty seconds or less section. First up, New Line Cinema
5:28
Speaker 1: is reportedly exploring the option of making a Weapons prequel,
5:32
Speaker 1: which is no big surprise considering the success of that movie.
5:35
Speaker 1: No word if Zach Kreiger would actually be involved with that.
5:39
Speaker 1: I don't know if he'd even be interested. He might
5:41
Speaker 1: feel like he told his story and that he's kind
5:45
Speaker 1: of moved on from that. I don't know. From a
5:47
Speaker 1: business perspective, I totally get it. From a creative perspective,
5:51
Speaker 1: I would really prefer they just leave the property alone,
5:55
Speaker 1: unless Craigor himself has an idea and wants to do
5:59
Speaker 1: it and doesn't just feel obligated because this was a success.
6:04
Speaker 1: I think it could totally stand on its own. I
6:06
Speaker 1: don't think we need a prequel. Obviously. Prequels are issue.
6:09
Speaker 1: You know they have issues anyway, because you know the
6:11
Speaker 1: fate of characters. Assuming that there are characters who cross
6:15
Speaker 1: over into Weapons, you already know what their fate is
6:18
Speaker 1: because you've seen the second chapter, right, So I don't
6:23
Speaker 1: really get the desire. I can understand why they don't
6:27
Speaker 1: want to do a sequel. That's all I'll say about that.
6:30
Speaker 1: Next up, Austin Abrams, who plays a supporting role in Weapons,
6:34
Speaker 1: is going to be a lead in Craiger's next movie,
6:37
Speaker 1: which is an adaptation of the Resident Evil games. Now,
6:41
Speaker 1: there have already been several Resident Evil movies. They have
6:46
Speaker 1: at best a tenuous connection to the video games, and
6:49
Speaker 1: they're not really very good. Craiger says he's a fan
6:53
Speaker 1: of the games and he wants to tell his own
6:55
Speaker 1: story set either within the general lore or maybe even
6:58
Speaker 1: just the vibe of the game series, which intrigues me.
7:03
Speaker 1: I would hope that he would avoid the pitfalls that
7:06
Speaker 1: I perceived with the Until Dawn film adaptation, where I
7:11
Speaker 1: was like, this movie feels like it's the opposite of
7:14
Speaker 1: what the Until Dawn game was doing, where and until
7:18
Speaker 1: Dawn it was like a butterfly effect, your choices would
7:23
Speaker 1: determine your fate and like a small choice could have
7:27
Speaker 1: a big impact later down the road. And meanwhile the
7:29
Speaker 1: film was like time loop, which is the opposite where
7:33
Speaker 1: your choices don't matter because things will just loop again.
7:36
Speaker 1: So hopefully the Resident Evil movie won't have a similar
7:40
Speaker 1: path where you're like, why do you even call it
7:43
Speaker 1: Resident Evil? Apart from cashing in on the IP. But
7:47
Speaker 1: we'll have to wait and see. Next up, Shrek five
7:50
Speaker 1: has hit another delay. So originally Shrek five was supposed
7:53
Speaker 1: to come out July first, twenty twenty six. It then
7:56
Speaker 1: got pushed back to December twenty third, twenty twenty six,
8:00
Speaker 1: and now Variety reports that it has been pushed back
8:03
Speaker 1: again to June thirtieth, twenty twenty seven. Now I'm not
8:06
Speaker 1: really surprised by this. Animated films take a really long
8:09
Speaker 1: time to produce, and I would much rather a studio
8:13
Speaker 1: take that time rather than push animators into crunch time
8:16
Speaker 1: for weeks on end. It could also be that maybe
8:20
Speaker 1: the calendar is filling up and that the desire is
8:24
Speaker 1: to release Shrek where it will stand a good chance
8:27
Speaker 1: to perform really well and won't be up against stuff competition.
8:30
Speaker 1: There's probably a combination going on there. Earlier this year,
8:34
Speaker 1: Universal's rights to the Jason Bourne IP lapsed. Now the
8:39
Speaker 1: Hollywood Reporter states that Universal has reacquired the film rights
8:43
Speaker 1: in perpetuity. It just means that you know, they have
8:46
Speaker 1: the film rights forever, or until Universal itself crumbles into dust.
8:51
Speaker 1: Not that I'm saying that's going to happen, but it
8:53
Speaker 1: has happened to media companies before. Anyway. This gives Universal
8:57
Speaker 1: the right to continue developing projects in the world of
9:00
Speaker 1: Jason Bourne for as long as they like, and last
9:06
Speaker 1: up in our little news segment that normally would be
9:08
Speaker 1: thirty seconds or less. There's been some conflicting information from
9:12
Speaker 1: the stars of the Daredevil series as to whether season
9:14
Speaker 1: two it will be the final season or not. Charlie
9:18
Speaker 1: Cox appeared at Galaxy Quest earlier this summer and said
9:23
Speaker 1: that season two was the final season, but he said
9:27
Speaker 1: in kind of a weird way where maybe he just
9:31
Speaker 1: met this most recent season, not this is it. This
9:35
Speaker 1: is the final season. Because Vincent Donaforio said there's a
9:39
Speaker 1: good chance for a third season. So was Cox just
9:43
Speaker 1: using some confusing wording or is this a case of
9:47
Speaker 1: wishful thinking on Vincent's part. I just don't know. Okay. Now,
9:51
Speaker 1: for our stuff that doesn't fit segment, we had three trailers.
9:56
Speaker 1: First up was Dead of Winter. It's a thriller starring
9:59
Speaker 1: Emma tom who travels to a remote region up north,
10:04
Speaker 1: like in a big snowy, icy region, in order to
10:06
Speaker 1: spread the ashes of a loved one, and she witnesses
10:10
Speaker 1: what is an apparent kidnapping. She then tries to help
10:14
Speaker 1: a young woman who seems to be held captive by
10:17
Speaker 1: a shady couple. And it looks pretty intense and violent
10:21
Speaker 1: and I've never seen Thompson in a role like this,
10:24
Speaker 1: so I am actually really interested. It comes out September
10:27
Speaker 1: twenty sixth, and honestly, like this trailer was enough for
10:30
Speaker 1: me to say, Hm, this like a it could be
10:33
Speaker 1: a pretty good thriller, So I don't really want to
10:36
Speaker 1: watch or read up too much more on this. Switching
10:40
Speaker 1: from winter to Summer, we got a trailer for Griffin
10:43
Speaker 1: in Summer. This is a coming of age film that
10:46
Speaker 1: follows a young and eccentric boy named Griffin and Griffin
10:52
Speaker 1: loves the theater. Like the stage, he actually writes his
10:56
Speaker 1: own plays, and he casts his friends in the roles
11:00
Speaker 1: the plays, and he puts them on in like his
11:02
Speaker 1: basement or something. So his mother, who's kind of, you know,
11:08
Speaker 1: bemused by her son, hires on a young man to
11:13
Speaker 1: be her to be a handyman around the house. So
11:17
Speaker 1: this young man looks like he's, you know, maybe in
11:20
Speaker 1: his early twenties. And Griffin obviously develops a crush on
11:24
Speaker 1: this guy and finds his art fascinating, so he begins
11:28
Speaker 1: to write a new play that's inspired by this guy,
11:31
Speaker 1: and he even casts the guy in the play. And
11:34
Speaker 1: the movie looks cute and quirky. The film was initially
11:37
Speaker 1: screened at various festivals way back in the summer of
11:40
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, but it's getting a wider release on
11:43
Speaker 1: August twenty ninth, so coming up pretty soon. Then there
11:48
Speaker 1: was a trailer for a documentary called Stans. This explores
11:52
Speaker 1: the fandom of rap artist Eminem who has a song
11:55
Speaker 1: called Stan. It's all about an obsessive, like fixated and
12:00
Speaker 1: sort of a parasocial relationship. So the documentary has interviews
12:05
Speaker 1: with the artist, the people around him, as well as
12:08
Speaker 1: his fans, who, many of whom express a self reflective
12:14
Speaker 1: time of their lives where they began to worry that
12:17
Speaker 1: perhaps they were stan like they were the type of
12:21
Speaker 1: fan being referenced in Eminem's song. And I included this
12:26
Speaker 1: in our lineup because obviously, fandom is at the heart
12:29
Speaker 1: of what this show is all about. And we have
12:32
Speaker 1: spoken several times in the past about how fandoms can
12:34
Speaker 1: be uplifting or they can sometimes be toxic. Occasionally they
12:39
Speaker 1: can be both uplifting for the people within them and
12:42
Speaker 1: toxic to everybody else. And while this documentary is specifically
12:46
Speaker 1: about Eminem, I think it's quite possible that the ideas
12:50
Speaker 1: that it explores are going to be more broadly applicable
12:53
Speaker 1: to fandoms in general. I mean, obviously there are other
12:55
Speaker 1: artists who have had crazy fandoms rise up around them,
13:02
Speaker 1: not just artists but properties, right like I always think
13:05
Speaker 1: of Star Wars as having some of the most toxic
13:08
Speaker 1: fans out there, a subset of Star Wars fans, not
13:12
Speaker 1: all Star Wars fans. Obviously, same is true with Firefly.
13:16
Speaker 1: We talked about that recently, where you know, Firefly fans
13:20
Speaker 1: aren't necessarily toxic, but there's a subset that definitely are
13:25
Speaker 1: Joss Whedon fans in general kind of have this where
13:28
Speaker 1: there's like a subset that are pretty toxic. But I'm
13:31
Speaker 1: sure that's true in all subcultures to some degree. Anyway,
13:36
Speaker 1: it looks interesting. The documentary comes out on August twenty
13:40
Speaker 1: sixth on Paramount Plus. Now over to John Boy's Horror Hutch.
13:46
Speaker 1: I only have one trailer in the Horror Hutch this week,
13:49
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to do the music for this either,
13:51
Speaker 1: which is probably clear already anyway. The trailers for a
13:55
Speaker 1: film called five, And according to the description, this is
13:59
Speaker 1: a horrorrror comedy about an actress who is desperate to
14:02
Speaker 1: have another hit after her career has taken kind of
14:06
Speaker 1: a noseedive. She's been in a string of poorly performing films,
14:10
Speaker 1: and she also has just emerged from a stint in rehab.
14:15
Speaker 1: And she is in a low budget rom com. Apparently
14:19
Speaker 1: it's using a remote, old spooky cabin as one of
14:23
Speaker 1: its locations. But then the actress seems to be possessed
14:27
Speaker 1: by some sort of demonic force that resides in the cabin,
14:31
Speaker 1: and as you might imagine, this throws the whole production
14:34
Speaker 1: into a little bit of a pickle. The trailer actually
14:37
Speaker 1: leans a little harder into the horror aspect than the comedy.
14:40
Speaker 1: There are some comedic elements to it, like there's some
14:43
Speaker 1: things that are framed in a semi comedic way, but
14:46
Speaker 1: it really seems to be pushing the horror side. It
14:49
Speaker 1: looks interesting. It's going to have its premiere at FrightFest
14:52
Speaker 1: in London on August twenty third, but I didn't see
14:56
Speaker 1: any information about a wider release yet, so it may
14:59
Speaker 1: be that it hasn't really been picked up by a distributor.
15:02
Speaker 1: I'll just have to keep my eyes open. It looks
15:05
Speaker 1: like something I would dig, so I'll keep looking to
15:08
Speaker 1: see if there are any updates. Also, naming your movie
15:11
Speaker 1: five kind of stinks, only because if you try to
15:15
Speaker 1: google stuff like five, then you're gonna get a lot
15:19
Speaker 1: of lists instead of the actual movie you're looking for,
15:23
Speaker 1: and be like five horror movies to watch out for
15:25
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. Not very helpful. Okay. Now for
15:30
Speaker 1: the trailers that were in our actual official lineup, some
15:33
Speaker 1: of which could arguably have fit in the Horror Hutch
15:35
Speaker 1: well one in particular, which is called Rabbit Trap. It's
15:39
Speaker 1: a horror film starring Dev Patel directed by Brn Cheney.
15:43
Speaker 1: This movie is set in the nineteen seventies and features
15:46
Speaker 1: a couple who accidentally stumble into a fairy ring. They
15:50
Speaker 1: are then visited by an unsettling young boy and witness
15:53
Speaker 1: lots of weird stuff. And that's about all I could
15:56
Speaker 1: get out of the trailer, you know, like he's of
16:00
Speaker 1: Ptel's character is recording sound out in the world, and
16:04
Speaker 1: he comes across like a weird almost like a song,
16:08
Speaker 1: but very discordant. So there's a lot of this kind
16:13
Speaker 1: of weird imagery and sounds that are included in the trailer.
16:18
Speaker 1: And I read up on some reviews because this movie
16:21
Speaker 1: has screened at various festivals, and sadly, it seems like
16:25
Speaker 1: the consensus is that the movie is more interested in
16:29
Speaker 1: creating that sort of tone and having weird visuals and
16:34
Speaker 1: stuff like that, rather than having a coherent story. And
16:37
Speaker 1: I'm kind of bummed because I would love a horror
16:40
Speaker 1: movie that's steeped in, say, Welsh mythology. But it sounds
16:43
Speaker 1: like this was an ambitious but ultimately unsuccessful attempt at
16:48
Speaker 1: something like that. Now, maybe the reviewers are wrong, but
16:52
Speaker 1: a lot of them have very similar things to say,
16:54
Speaker 1: particularly when it comes to the conclusion of the movie.
16:57
Speaker 1: So we'll have to see anyway. The film comes out
17:00
Speaker 1: September twelfth. I'll probably wait for this to come to
17:02
Speaker 1: streaming because based on what I have heard, it sounds
17:07
Speaker 1: like like I would also be frustrated by this movie.
17:10
Speaker 1: Maybe not, but I get that feeling, and I don't
17:13
Speaker 1: really want to take the time and money to go
17:16
Speaker 1: see something that ultimately is going to be irritated by.
17:20
Speaker 1: Then we have Killing Faith, which is a supernatural western film.
17:24
Speaker 1: It stars Guy Pearce. So in this movie, there is
17:28
Speaker 1: a black woman who has a daughter who is white
17:32
Speaker 1: and blonde, and the girl apparently has the touch of death,
17:36
Speaker 1: like literally, like this is a little girl and when
17:39
Speaker 1: she touches stuff, it dies. So she's usually wearing mittens,
17:43
Speaker 1: allah elsa and frozen. Her mother seeks out the help
17:47
Speaker 1: of a doctor played by Guy Pearce. This doctor has
17:51
Speaker 1: a reputation of being really bad in his job, like
17:53
Speaker 1: his patients typically do not recover, and Guy Pearce is
17:59
Speaker 1: playing kind of very weary and skeptical and kind of
18:04
Speaker 1: like a burnout Bill Pullman plays a preacher slash faith
18:11
Speaker 1: healer whom the mother hopes will heal her daughter. He
18:16
Speaker 1: seems to be kind of sinister in the trailers. In fact,
18:20
Speaker 1: he is sinister. At one point he does apparently kidnap
18:22
Speaker 1: the girl. There are witches, there's religious horror elements, there's
18:27
Speaker 1: some Western tropes that are in the trailer. It's really
18:31
Speaker 1: a wild high concept and it comes up October third. Also, yes,
18:36
Speaker 1: when I was working on my notes, i wrote Bill
18:38
Speaker 1: Paxton instead of Bill Pullman, even though Paxton passed away
18:41
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, because my brain is dumb. Next up,
18:46
Speaker 1: I watched a trailer for a Korean fantasy romantic drama
18:50
Speaker 1: series called bona Petit Your majesty. This is another wild
18:55
Speaker 1: high concept project. I love this idea. It's wack adoodle.
19:00
Speaker 1: So there's Our protagonist is a woman named Jon Gijong
19:05
Speaker 1: who works as a modern day chef. She's a French
19:09
Speaker 1: chef and she's competing in sort of an iron chef
19:12
Speaker 1: kind of competition, and she suddenly finds herself mysteriously transported
19:16
Speaker 1: back into the Joson period of Korea. My apologies for
19:21
Speaker 1: my pronunciation. By the way, I am an ignorant westerner.
19:25
Speaker 1: But I had to look up the Josion period because
19:29
Speaker 1: I wasn't totally familiar with it. But this is an
19:32
Speaker 1: era in Korea that lasted like half a millennium. It
19:35
Speaker 1: started in thirteen ninety two and ended in eighteen ninety seven. Anyway,
19:40
Speaker 1: Yon Jijong uses her skills and knowledge as a chef
19:44
Speaker 1: to endear herself to the King of Joson, a guy
19:48
Speaker 1: named Lee Jon who has a discerning palate, so he
19:52
Speaker 1: is kind of a foodie, but he's also a total
19:54
Speaker 1: tyrannical jerk fase And the series has already aired in Korea,
19:58
Speaker 1: but it comes to Netflix on August twenty third, And yeah,
20:03
Speaker 1: I was like, what a cool idea. I kind of
20:07
Speaker 1: like this idea of, you know, someone who is just
20:11
Speaker 1: a normal person who isn't connected to any kind of
20:13
Speaker 1: like secret project or anything, but suddenly finds themselves transported
20:17
Speaker 1: back in time. How do they cope? How did they survive?
20:21
Speaker 1: Because we often think, oh, well, I have so much
20:24
Speaker 1: more knowledge, But I also love the various comedies out
20:28
Speaker 1: there that play upon the fact that most average people
20:32
Speaker 1: don't have enough working knowledge to be able to navigate
20:38
Speaker 1: a world that is in the past. Anyway. We also
20:42
Speaker 1: got a very short video showing some of the work
20:44
Speaker 1: on the first day of shooting for Spider Man Brand
20:46
Speaker 1: New Day. In the video, you can see Tom Holland
20:50
Speaker 1: in costume. You can see him getting wired up and
20:53
Speaker 1: doing some stunts. You can also see a crowd of
20:56
Speaker 1: people watching, like not extras, like just people who are
21:00
Speaker 1: on the borders of the shoot watching what's going on.
21:04
Speaker 1: And he even takes some time to say hi to
21:06
Speaker 1: some of these folks, and that's come on, that's too much,
21:09
Speaker 1: mister Holland, You're being too awesome of a person. He
21:12
Speaker 1: also seems to be genuinely happy to be reunited with
21:15
Speaker 1: crew members he's worked with before. He just seems like
21:18
Speaker 1: a really good guy. And I'm asking you, mister Holland,
21:21
Speaker 1: please tone it down so that losers like I am
21:25
Speaker 1: are feel a little less inadequate. But seriously, it looks
21:29
Speaker 1: like he and the crew are both working really hard
21:33
Speaker 1: but also having a really good time, and that's great
21:35
Speaker 1: to see. I'm hoping that the movie benefits from that
21:38
Speaker 1: kind of energy once it's in the can. Finally, we
21:42
Speaker 1: got a trailer for Lego Disney Princess Villains Unite The
21:47
Speaker 1: title pretty much tells you everything you need to know.
21:49
Speaker 1: It's a lego movie features various Disney princesses in lego form,
21:54
Speaker 1: kind of because the minifig versions of the princesses look
21:58
Speaker 1: a little more elongated and and princess like than minifig like. Actually,
22:02
Speaker 1: that's one of my big complaints is that I don't
22:06
Speaker 1: like the character design in this. I don't think that
22:08
Speaker 1: they are lego enough. But it has like the sense
22:12
Speaker 1: of humor of a Lego movie, and obviously different Disney
22:16
Speaker 1: villains are plotting something. They include villains like Ursula, Ja'afar, Gaston,
22:23
Speaker 1: the Evil Queen, and Prince John from the Robin Hood movie,
22:26
Speaker 1: although he's not named in this anyway, they all have
22:31
Speaker 1: nefarious plans and the princesses need to figure out what
22:35
Speaker 1: those are and to stop them. It looks cute, but again,
22:38
Speaker 1: the minifig design, I don't really like it. I don't
22:41
Speaker 1: think it looks like the minifigs of the other Lego movies,
22:45
Speaker 1: and that kind of I'm like, why you should just
22:49
Speaker 1: really go whole hog into that. I think that's what
22:51
Speaker 1: makes them cute. But anyway, this movie is gonna be
22:54
Speaker 1: out on Disney Plus on August twenty fifth. That is it.
23:00
Speaker 1: So I hope all of y'all out there are doing well.
23:02
Speaker 1: If you'd like to reach out to us well, Ariel
23:05
Speaker 1: usually handles that. So go and listen to the end
23:08
Speaker 1: of a different episode because I am making myself scarce
23:11
Speaker 1: while I prep for my vacation on a boat. I'll
23:15
Speaker 1: see you next time. The Large Nerdron Collider was created
