nerdy yeah happy New Year good does that work this comes out New Year's Day
0:26
doesn't it it comes out on New Year's Eve I think oh actually it depends in
0:32
Australia it probably is New Year's Day I forget that sometimes um and since
0:37
people aren't going to be going at partying now they can just listen to us
0:39
as soon as it's released yeah yeah what are you doing for New Year's well I
0:44
stopped going out for New Year's like a few years ago yeah cuz we got old we got
0:48
old it's I like going out but the worst
0:52
part about going out on New Eve is once it goes midnight and you have a few more
0:58
drinks and it's time to go home it's impossible to get home yeah that's a
1:02
[ __ ] nightmare yeah especially in Sydney the trains stop yeah the trains
1:05
stop working you're not getting a taxi and you just standing you're waiting
1:09
around for like four hours and it's just not fun yeah I do miss going out I
1:14
remember I vaguely remember doing that that is something I used to do do you
1:17
know what I miss and uh this is this predates any of this Co stuff I miss
1:22
pubs y you know what they don't have
1:24
here pubs yeah yeah like you have bars right yep well you got to go sit at a
1:31
table and get you know like it's it's it's hard to explain I guess it's just
1:37
not like pubs like yeah everywhere over there you got like this dinner and you
1:43
got you're being served whereas he your Pub where you just got to sit at the bar
1:47
and they just bring your drinks yeah or like well the other thing they do here
1:50
is that everybody does literally sit at the bar in the [ __ ] way like they
1:55
don't do that in you know like in in if you go to a pub Australia the bar the
2:01
order area is clear yeah you go in you order your drink and you get out the way
2:07
yeah here everybody just or there is a place where you can sit but that that's
2:11
sort of down the other end right here You' got to stand behind the people who
2:14
are sat at the bar it's like it's very odd like well I mean it's odd to me I'm
2:18
sure for people here it's they get confused in Sydney when they pull up a
2:22
stool in the middle of the [ __ ] surface area and
2:26
get but yeah no but yeah I've I've been to a pub in a
2:31
while see I don't know if I'm allowed to go I haven't been to a pub since I was in England
2:36
so that might be the last time I was in a pub as
2:40
well I'd like to go to England again so
2:44
would I America sort this [ __ ] out oh actually what I what am I saying America
2:49
and Britain come on guys both you well I
2:54
think I will get to go to Japan in probably about June July yeah have pubs
2:59
in Japan not really I bet they're [ __ ] extreme whatever they
3:06
are they do have the Robot Restaurant which is awesome I got very drunk at
3:12
that place I there also where I experienced an earthquake right we had an earthquake
3:17
here I don't know if I told you that yet we had an earthquake it was uh
3:22
terrifying I've never experienced an earthquake especially because you're not
3:26
in an area that gets earthquake so it's not something you were expecting it I
3:30
mean it didn't go for very long but uh it's there was just I I thought I think
3:34
I did mention it I thought my boiler was exploding yeah yeah it would be
3:40
terrifying especially yeah I remember I was in Japan I was in a robot restant
3:45
everything shook everyone looked around and then the people serving just
3:49
continued to bring out drinks I went well must be fine then business as usual
3:53
yeah well I everything started shaking and I panicked and ran around the house
3:57
trying to figure out what was exploding turns out it was the Earth Yep the Earth
4:03
just trying to get rid of us all exactly so how was your Christmas um I was okay
4:08
I got called in I did a little bit of
4:10
work and then I sat at home by myself
4:15
played video games I assume pretty much I've been doing went up to Brisbane with
4:20
her family yeah I couldn't I I was on call for work so I couldn't go anywhere
4:25
yeah and so I just stayed here oh well I did some video games as well over the uh
4:31
over the week you did I did you play some cyber punk I did I have been
4:35
playing cyber Punk mate I know that you've finished the main story and I've
4:38
seen complaints not complaints it's very short what I saying I've seen a lot of
4:42
complaints about cyber Punk let's be honest in the last week uh yeah that
4:47
it's short being one of them and I've not found that but then that's because
4:50
it takes me [ __ ] forever to yeah honestly I think there's if you play
4:55
just the main story yeah I'm not doing that yeah there's less than 10 Miss
5:01
really huh like it or that's what it felt like like I went and did everything
5:07
else on the map before the main story cleared the map and then did the
5:12
main story oh i' done like a few missions yeah and then I think and then
5:19
I went oh look I'll play one more main mission then I'll just go around do
5:22
everything and I got uh this is a like a no point of no return and it was very
5:26
early on like very early that's so weird because I feel like I've been playing it
5:30
for [ __ ] ages like if it if it said that now I'd be like fair enough yeah
5:34
but yeah you are doing you're not doing the main story you're doing all the
5:38
little side quests I mean I am doing the main story as well that's that's yeah
5:42
I'm interspersing it all I guess I was going to ask because the way you play
5:48
right so I found I'm not having any of these issues that a lot of people
5:52
apparently are having which is nice for me most of them are on if you're playing
5:57
on like PlayStation 4 or Xbox one yeah yeah so I'm having a great time and I
6:03
find that I just kind of wander around the city uh and I guess like live in it
6:09
a little bit like I I don't know I'm just I'm just really liking the world I
6:12
wander around I listen to what people were talking about and I I did not use
6:17
fast travel at all in this game like I drove everywhere or I was going to ask
6:23
did you just blast through it no no no I yeah I did not use fast travel I drove everywhere
6:30
cuz it was I don't know it was enjoyable it was like Watch Dogs where I just fast
6:35
traveled or Assassin's Creed where I just yeah like I'm over let's just go it
6:39
was a it's actually stuff going real yeah yeah exactly yeah and the way the
6:44
city's laid out and like you know like everything there's all street names and
6:48
like the way you just overhear conversations and yeah it feels like a
6:52
real City you know it's such a shame all the crap that's going on yeah honestly
6:58
all they had to do was a couple years ago say it's not coming out on
7:01
PlayStation 4 Xbox one taking a hit there and it would have been fine if
7:05
these are the bugs that we had like with they with what came out on the what's on
7:11
the series X and the new PlayStation PC everyone would gone yep it's an open
7:15
world game it is what it is yeah but because they still released an
7:19
unplayable version that's where all the trouble has come from well they're in
7:23
trouble now they um city project Reds investors are suing or they I mean
7:30
putting together a lawsuit uh well they were lied to yeah yeah it's pretty
7:35
shitty they I mean this is like we're talking like the suits at city project
7:40
ra from the sounds of it just keep telling people no no no it's all good
7:44
just some minor bugs and even when they were outright asked about like the Xbox
7:49
One and the PlayStation 4 they went no it's fine yeah yeah it's fine no it's
7:52
playable it's it's good it's going to ship I think yeah it wasn't playable the
7:58
the story that floated was that there was a basically there was a meeting
8:01
where the there was like you've got the development team on one side the
8:04
investors on the other and then I guess the money folks in the middle and the
8:09
money folks told the investors no no no it's all good just a few bugs and the
8:13
investors said well release it then and then the money people went back to the
8:18
developers and said the investors have said we've got to release it and then
8:22
that's how they got into this mess yeah yeah see yeah all they had to do was sh
8:26
not release on the old like they still had released like the new update for
8:32
they said it was going to be on those consoles so I can understand like yeah I
8:36
can understand why but if they had have just taken a hit and I'm talking a
8:40
couple years ago a couple of years ago they would have known that this was not
8:44
going to work and it's worse because I feel like like this was them trying to
8:47
do the right thing in a way the the developers at least I don't know what
8:51
the [ __ ] going on with the management but the developers at least trying to do
8:53
the right thing we said it was going to launch on these consoles we'll get it
8:56
working on these consoles and it's really bitten them in the ass
9:00
yeah look if you were one of the people who's got to play on the series X or
9:04
it's a PlayStation 5 isn't it that's the new one yes I keep forgetting if you got
9:08
the plan on that you could saw some bugs but it was a enjoyable game you you were
9:13
able to play it so I don't I didn't get to experience what everyone else did
9:17
playing on the older console wait a minute yeah we could if we wanted to oh
9:24
God we could I just realized oh yeah I still have my Xbox One
9:30
we could we could I crack it out for next week I'm going to have a look at it
9:33
and see what yeah next week I forgot about that oh that's cuz I've enjoying
9:39
the game but it's also a bit dodgy about what they did with like giving out
9:44
review copies it was uh we've only got the PC copies for you to review because
9:50
like they knew there was a problem of course they did yeah they did
9:55
and yeah people are going to be sued and fired
9:59
but yeah I'm happy I think the developers are still going to get their
10:03
bonuses yes I saw that because even after the refunds and everything they've
10:09
still sold over 13 million copies okay
10:13
which is a lot that's quite a lot of copies yeah if I sold 13 million for
10:18
something I'd be I'd be happy with that yeah even if you just sold it for a dollar
10:24
exactly exactly and we mentioned I think last week I mentioned there was a a bug
10:30
a save bug they fixed it yes so upgrade update to the latest version of cyber
10:35
Punk 277 they fixed that save bug as far as I'm aware that's the only bug that
10:41
was a really real real Mega problem yeah that was yeah if you game breaking bug
10:47
that was there yeah I think was that was one if your save got over 8 megabytes or
10:52
something and it normally happened if you were like crafting a lot of stuff y
10:56
yeah and then once it got corrupted that's it's [ __ ] dead so go and find
11:02
an old hopefully you made extra saves so but it's fixed now the safe file is
11:07
going to be bigger than eight Meg I still need to go back and finish I still
11:10
need to go and finish it another three times which is really annoying well I've
11:15
realized I my plan for this is I'm going to fin I'm going to play through it I'm
11:20
going to finish as much as I feel like this time I don't know if I'll do all of
11:24
the map um it it gets a bit much W the end yeah I don't know if I'll do that I
11:31
don't want to wear myself out on it I will finish the main story line and then
11:35
I might wait for the next gen update although yep I wonder when that's going
11:42
to happen now well yeah are they going to spend all of their time trying to
11:46
make it work on the old consoles or are they going to
11:50
go and just do I really really want DLC and stuff for this and I hate that I'm
11:57
saying that I would I mean I'd also take just the content when they release the
12:01
game thanks that would be great as well I do want more content uh whether it's
12:05
DLC you haven't even finished it and you already know you want because I love it
12:09
it's so good uh and I want to know more I want I want to
12:15
follow up on some of the characters too I don't want to talk spoilers cuz it's
12:18
early on that's that's one of the things I don't like about the ending the fact
12:22
that there are different endings oh it's sort of hard to continue on that story
12:28
if the cuz the just ways you can go with the endings like there's multiple
12:34
endings so it's sort like a just you pick up and go again so right I don't
12:38
know if maybe DLCs be you're going to play a different character or oh all
12:42
right because there's there's there all completely speculation I have no idea
12:47
because they the show the show the game has really great characters I think uh
12:52
there are characters in there that I really really got attached to and they
12:57
I'm not going to spoil anything but once you complete you know the plot line for
13:00
a character some of them you know pop
13:04
off to to get on with their lives and I was like and some of them you have sex
13:09
with that's right and I was like a I'm not going to see that person again but
13:14
you kind of do you know because you can still call people and you get like text
13:17
updates from stuff so it's actually quite nice in that sense yeah but I
13:21
would still like you know I know it' be nice to get some more tell you what
13:25
Keanu was great in it though I thought so too I read a lot of reviews that said
13:29
he was a bit [ __ ] uh I disagree I thought he was fine yeah I I liked him
13:35
in it they said that he you know with when put in a in a video game with
13:41
actual voice actors his acting ability was not up to scratch and I didn't I
13:46
didn't find that as such maybe it's just because I'm used to Keanu Reeves yeah
13:51
it's just it's Keanu who exactly G was cool
13:57
yeah people are the wor agreed but no it's going to be
14:01
interesting to see what happens with the DLC with this yeah yeah I I want it but but we're
14:08
probably a while up that's my concern yeah yeah so I I want to make it for the
14:12
next gen patch for the next play through hopefully that doesn't get held up too
14:17
much with all the [ __ ] that's going on hopefully I wonder how far doesn't
14:22
happen and they don't get [ __ ] they don't go bankrupt or something [ __ ]
14:26
horrible well I was worried about that but I don't think that's going to be
14:30
trouble I don't think it's going to do as well as they thought now but they
14:34
still sold a hell of a lot of games it's too big to fail I don't think
14:39
that all that all say I I don't think they're going to get the same investors
14:44
for their next game yeah it sucks I think that they're going to have to go
14:48
and rebuild that trust again yeah cuz you've got to remember like Witcher the
14:54
first Witcher while it was a good game that was buggy as [ __ ] wasn't really
14:57
that yeah and it wasn't that that bigger game like it was it was really Witch of
15:01
three that really got oh my God SI project rated great mhm and I enjoyed
15:08
witch two was all right I enjoyed it but it wasn't like one BL Witcher three was
15:12
the the the money shot yeah and so this is their next thing which is it's going
15:17
to be bigger than a Witcher 3 and now it's going to go well now we're going to
15:21
go back down maybe we'll come back in a Witcher 2 level and work our way back up
15:24
again yeah just do some GW but yeah if you remember like Witcher what the first
15:30
Witcher mhm oh I know that was not the greatest game it was [ __ ] unplayable
15:34
when it came out but it was great yeah enhanced Edition is better but it's
15:40
still clunky like it's great it's a really great game uh I mean I don't know
15:46
I don't know that I'd recommend anybody try and play it these days I don't know
15:51
a lot of people who actually finished it I never finished it I have I know what
15:57
happens I've seen I've watched playthroughs of it because I got to it's
16:02
one of those games where it it doesn't have a good Journal system so I got to
16:07
like act five or something stopped playing came back to it a couple months
16:12
later and I was like the what the hell am I going on yeah I need to battle this
16:17
monster but I need to have my oils ready and I don't remember anything who the
16:22
fck is this K like yeah yeah it was not
16:26
kind you had to play that game and that was your life or you do what we did and
16:32
played it for a little bit went away and then came back and went I don't remember
16:36
yeah what was the first game that introduced the journal system cuz games
16:41
were like that before that's a that's an old school way of having a game is
16:45
someone I guess final maybe a final fantasy cuz it used to be you talk to
16:52
somebody and they'd say you've got to go here and do this and if you don't
16:55
remember that they said that you're [ __ ] that used to
17:00
they've actually brought that back in Assassin's Creed Valla oh sure so when
17:05
you do like the little the side quest there's no side quest like you know from
17:10
the other games where you rock up someone gives you this Quest and it's
17:13
trackable in this one you go up there's places on the map where you so you know
17:17
there's a side quest happening here you have to go and talk to someone and
17:20
they'll tell you what's happening and then you just have to work it out yeah
17:24
right like they'll say like my kid's lost and they're over in the they went
17:29
out to the East and you have to walk to the east to find them there's nothing to
17:32
say here they are or anything like that and it was actually interesting and it
17:36
was also the way they did it was good because everything was like localized it
17:41
wasn't like you'd have to travel an hour away or across the map you'd be sort of
17:46
within good 10 minutes of where you are you'll be able to work out what's
17:50
happening and complete the mission guess maybe I'm going to end up trying out
17:54
that game at some point I did I mind it it's Odyssey
17:59
Odyssey is a better game okay all right well I still got plenty of that to but I
18:05
still like though yeah but hly was the first ever Assassin's Creed game that I ever 100%
18:11
in until I released a DLC and I never went
18:15
back I wonder how cyber Punk will run on KFC's new
18:20
console I heard about this so they announced it and everyone thought oh KFC
18:26
you're being silly again and then they came out with no it's real yeah it's called the KF
18:32
console uh KFC gaming apparently is a Twitter account that KFC has this
18:39
is a it's I mean it's PC it's not really a console but I mean what's the [ __ ]
18:45
difference these days it's a PC in the shape of I mean it's it looks
18:52
like a a a black and red chicken bucket
18:57
and it's got aien chicken warmer in it you put your chicken in it to keep it
19:02
warm while you're playing this is so [ __ ] weird it is I'm just picturing
19:07
it though they call it a chicken chamber it's got a chicken chamber a compartment
19:13
in which chicken can be placed to warm while you play the F what happens when
19:18
you put it in play forget about it yeah and then remember a we later throw the
19:25
console out cuz it stinks
19:29
this is so [ __ ] weird it's said to be worth about
19:35
$11,000 is it are they selling it or is it just going to be a no SL on the
19:41
gameplay front said to offer support for 240 H out Hertz output on 4K displays
19:47
it's pretty [ __ ] impressive with a top end ninth gen Intel mobile chip
19:51
inside no the CPU is said to be worth about $1,000 according to this oh God an
19:56
assus RTX supported hot swap able mini
19:59
GPU 2 C8 nvme 1 TB ssds it is VR ready
20:04
and boasts R tracing no price or release date has been set but there are picks in
20:10
a little video of it it looks like they've partnered with Cooler Master like
20:15
just I don't know just if you're going to sell it just tell us down it's just
20:19
so strange who's going to buy this oh
20:22
people will I mean I don't know anyone
20:29
I do what a new computer do you know what I bought and I forgot about just on
20:34
while we're talking about consoles I got an email in uh I I guess probably
20:39
November October or November telling me that my Atari
20:45
VCS that I apparently pre-ordered will not ship until January sometime you know
20:51
the new Atari console oh yeah I think I got drunk I
20:56
think I got drunk and pre-ordered one at some point weren't cheap I cuz I I was
21:00
like I didn't buy one of those but then I checked my email I [ __ ] did I just
21:05
don't remember it cuz I saw I saw it I went oh that would be nice then I saw
21:09
the price i' have gone no cuz it's it's a it's a lot more
21:15
expensive than I think it should be for what it is har VCS
21:22
in yeah I ordered a Atari VCS 800 black
21:26
walnut Allin bundle and an extra classic
21:33
joystick yeah cuz I remember it's like I don't remember looked now it's
21:38
$400 yeah well when it gets in I'll let you know how it is so that was a
21:43
pleasant surprise actually cuz I was like I was like ah I don't I think
21:47
that's a mistake and then I checked and I'm like no I I did order that I just
21:50
don't remember that I you order yeah like no no no I I did and I checked and
21:54
yeah I paid for it so yep fair enough
21:59
um I I could just probably get my my Atari out that's just there and I could
22:04
just do that that' be a lot cheaper well it's this is supposed to this plays
22:07
Modern games as well right no the Atari VCS yeah yeah it does I don't I don't
22:13
think it does it does it's a it's a modern game console it's no no no it is I
22:19
promise it plays old stuff but it's also supposed to be like a new console the
22:24
only the only thing you want to play on it is Pall that's probably true yeah
22:31
like that's the only Atari game that I still remember to this day is Pitfall
22:36
it's got a PC you can put Windows on it and run Windows games on it so it's it's
22:41
like a basically a PC it's got an AMD ryzen processor featuring radon Graphics
22:48
can handle it all including 4K HDR video streaming I mean h 4K HDR video my Apple
22:54
TV can do that so that's I would it's
22:57
not no huge brag Atari but uh you can
23:02
install any it comes with Windows yeah it doesn't come with anything use it as
23:06
a [ __ ] development machine yep anyway well I don't know
23:10
what I'm going to do with it I don't know why I bought it but it's a really
23:13
nice present to yourself that you forgot about it honestly I swear to God I got
23:17
the email and I was like what and then I was really happy about it cuz a I've
23:22
already paid for it it's it literally was like a Christmas present that I
23:26
bought myself and forgot about but it's not shipping to next next year
23:31
now so it was early next year wasn't it yeah it said January I think in the last
23:35
email I think because because of the yeah Co [ __ ] so
23:39
yeah so I'll let you know how that is when it gets here if it gets
23:43
here did you get a PS5 yet uh no no and I don't plan on getting one also they're
23:50
still impossible to buy here you can get uh you can get a cat food PS5 I think
23:55
and you can it looks like you can also get a picture of a PS5 is that is that
24:00
the case h people are still falling for
24:03
that that's an old trick yeah the old
24:09
eBay the account the old Ebay listing that says photo of and then
24:14
yes and then they sort of have all the information about like the actual thing
24:19
and then they should be a photo I can't believe they could still something that
24:22
can happen on eBay this in this day and age oh people just they get silly
24:29
like people are still spending $1,500 to buy these consoles when it's s
24:34
of like just wait a couple of months and they will be at the normal price these
24:39
people have no shame this is this is a listing on eBay Sony PlayStation Gen 5
24:45
digital Edition 1 TB console white photo
24:50
only 180 isounds
24:54
180 you people are [ __ ] see people you have to be like that's a ridiculous
25:00
price cuz that's far too cheap and
25:04
so You' way it's just the description is
25:08
PS5 but it's just a photo of an empty
25:12
box and in the description it says uh here I am selling an artist's
25:18
impression of how empty my life feels not owning a PS5 I am not selling a PS5
25:23
the winning bid will receive an empty box representing how sad and empty I
25:27
feel inside any money I receive will go towards buying me a
25:33
PS5 [ __ ] hell but I don't know I one thing I like that coming out of I know
25:38
in the UK they're looking at bringing in something to stop these evil people
25:43
reselling consoles good yeah just at launch you can sell
25:49
them later like the people who are just doing it to gouge people like the people who
25:55
here this this cost me 500 I'm going to sell it to for ,000 yeah garbage yep I
26:02
don't like those people no we got lucky yeah because I know people who are
26:09
trying to find lucky Xboxes and ps5s and they're not having any luck I've got two
26:13
of them and I don't know and people like how didd you manag that and I'm like
26:17
well I the first one the first one I got I did put in a bit of effort the second
26:21
one was just luck just right time just yeah cuz there are Twitter accounts that
26:28
that that kind of monitor when they come in in and out of stock on various
26:32
retailers yeah I just got lucky I went to walmart.com at exactly the right
26:37
time whereas yeah like the first one I got was it was I woke up and I was
26:43
online with a couple of websites getting ready to order yeah I had tabs going I
26:48
had five or six tabs going and then my second one ex Microsoft just went here have an
26:54
Xbox and I went thank you well I didn't get that treatment I also got a trophy I
27:00
love my trophy I got some achievements this week I know you've seen them I know
27:04
you've seen them I haven't actually you probably know more about them than I
27:07
do go check for you if you want I got some jackbox related
27:12
achievements oh okay and I got and cuz
27:16
that's a you know do you know we should do that again playing jackx over yeah
27:22
from that works great yeah playing it remotely that works really well um we've
27:27
been doing that with with relatives and stuff as well it's been good and I got a
27:32
bunch of cyber Punk ones yeah aka the only other game I play
27:39
now yeah yeah you play cyber Punk a little bit of jackbox and then before
27:44
that was December 8th you playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey no surprises
27:49
there and before that on November 27th you're playing forter Horizon 4 that's
27:55
true that's true I was I was demoing my consoles
28:00
capabilities cuz that game got a nextg update
28:04
yes I like that game it's a fun game oh yeah I like the Horizon games actually
28:09
yeah I like them like they're a bit more arcadey so it's easier for people get
28:14
into like it's not just a straight racing Sim which MH they can get a bit
28:19
boring yeah but Horizon you driv it's like an open world racing game I mean it
28:25
is and it was really cool well was really cool because when you're playing
28:29
that like cuz it's set in the UK I remember you go to Scot you go to
28:33
Edinburgh Scotland yeah Edinburgh and I'm s like I've walked down that street
28:37
this is Edinburgh yeah it's not bad it's tough when they do that in games because
28:42
they have to there's a there's a always
28:45
a I guess a a trade-off between accuracy
28:50
and actually making it fun cuz there are some games that that
28:55
perfectly model actual cities and stuff and that means the map sucks for for
29:01
game well I remember playing Watch Dog Legion I was looking forward to that
29:06
cuz they've recreated London but then I
29:11
just fast traveled everywhere and it wasn't as exciting as I was hoping well
29:15
that's how people get around London anyway mate they fast travel on the
29:20
tube yeah but I just fast travel and then go to the mission and fast travel
29:25
like there was no I remember walking down here and no yeah not at all that
29:32
was a that was I did not like that game quite sad about that really I wanted to
29:38
I didn't I didn't worry about it I knew cyber Punk was coming out so I didn't worry about
29:41
it did you watch Wonder Woman yet I haven't I'm going to go see it when
29:48
Hannah gets back from Queensland okay I've heard terrible things about it I
29:54
had I heard nice things about it and then it came out and and then I started
29:58
to hear terrible things about it it seems like it's quite divisive I saw an
30:02
article that stated it was almost like
30:07
uh The Last Jedi in that sense in that people like really really like it or
30:13
really really dislike it seems like nobody's like eh I've seen some reviews
30:18
but it's a sort of talking like each scene was put together by a committee
30:23
but that committee didn't talk to anyone else and they just did their own thing and
30:29
H yeah I was talking about it today on safe file with Aon cuz she's seen it and
30:33
she's saying like it is really bad really but but she's a girl is she's a
30:39
girl she's supposed to like it it's done well at the box office it's done well at
30:44
the box office and they've already announced Wonder Woman 3 I know now
30:48
that's they tracked it apparently now did it has it done well or is it just
30:53
the fact that there hasn't been any other movies and everyone wanted to see
30:56
a blockbuster yeah that's fair this is the only thing they can do well the
31:00
first one I mean I didn't like the first one but I didn't mind the first one did
31:04
Aaron like the first one yeah yeah okay all right so this is not just I I'm not
31:10
I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't like this one I didn't like the first one or
31:13
any of the other you know DC movies B somebody who liked the first one didn't
31:18
like it fair enough yeah I from from what I've been saying at this one I
31:21
thought this might be it this finally might be a nail in the coffin they're
31:24
going to stop the DC Universe and start again in yeah but then they they fast
31:30
tracked three because it did well but yeah is it is it just I honestly think
31:35
it's just people wanted to go to the movies yeah it could be well they're not
31:38
going to the movies to see it here I tell you that they're watching it at
31:41
home um because I don't know that that's right could you get on HBO Max that's
31:46
right yep here no there's no HBO Max and
31:51
go to the movies you have to get into movies but I mean you won't die if you
31:56
do so no no yeah that it's actually quite good go to the movies at the
32:01
moment is because you don't have to sit next to anyone it's great yeah you have
32:05
to book your tickets online they put a little exclusion Zone around you where I
32:10
live you don't have to sit next to anybody anyway most of the time
32:15
so unless it's like but literally premere night of something like a Marvel
32:21
movie in which case you might have to sit next to somebody but not always well
32:25
for those ones I just tend to go through the gold class o l do which has a
32:30
limited seating and then I don't have to sit next to anyone that I don't know and
32:33
they'll bring you duck pancakes while you eat ah those bring me lots of
32:40
alcohol I miss [Laughter] drinking all right so we haven't seen it
32:46
and I mean honestly I'm probably not going to for a while so listeners I
32:49
wouldn't I wouldn't if you want us to review it I wouldn't hold your breath oh
32:53
I will review it next week all right fine but
33:23
[Laughter]
33:57
subscrition it's part of the subscription that's my understanding is
34:00
that you pay for you just get it I wasn't sure if they were going to do it
34:04
sort of like a pay-per-view as well I don't I canell my HBO Max after I
34:09
finished Lovecraft country so I don't know but I mean I'll I guess I could
34:15
pretty easily find out by just looking Dune may not be on HBO Max after all now
34:20
and apparently some of the other movies they announced are in question
34:24
because uh you know legendary pictures we I think we mentioned this when we
34:29
announced when we announced when they announced uh they're not happy about it
34:34
legendary pictures and villing youve we're not happy and so apparently now it might not
34:39
happen I think for Dune the best thing it can do was release on streaming services they
34:46
disagree they yeah but they going to come back around if they do releas
34:50
they're going to come back and go luk what right that's a movie that's not
34:54
going to do great at the box office look I mean this is just rumors and
34:58
all we know is rumors have the solution to that breach being to preserve Dune as
35:04
a traditional theatrical to preserve its franchise potential and since its
35:09
October 1 release date Falls well after the estimated late spring date when
35:12
covid vaccines should achieve her immunity oh October 1st there you go I
35:17
did not realize that was when they were planning us to be immune so yeah I just
35:22
I don't know I just think this was a good out for them
35:26
Dune people like you you're going to go watch it you're going to love it weren't
35:31
forced to make this movie Luke they think it's going to be
35:34
good they think it is it's not going to be I'm just telling you that they don't
35:39
they don't see it as an out they think this movie is good I know but they're going to be
35:44
they're going to realize that they've made a terrible mistake come October 2nd
35:48
that might be true when everyone goes sees it day one and then no one's there
35:52
the next day you are putting a [ __ ] death spell on this movie Luke can't
35:57
believe it I'm I'm I'm sorry I just I don't get I don't get dun I don't I've
36:04
tried to read that book so many times this is a movie not a book so have you
36:09
not seen David Lynch's fantastic adaptation I know but I'm joking it's
36:14
not a great movie no it's not a great M that's I'm
36:17
joking [ __ ] it I I look at this cuz
36:21
Blade Runner mhm yeah I know I know 2049 did not do well yeah a everyone who
36:27
wanted to see it went and saw it but then it didn't have the life and I think
36:32
dune's going to be the same you going have a lot of people go see it the first
36:35
couple of days and then that going to die off I did what I could for Blade
36:39
Brown 249 I saw it three times at the movies did what I could didn't help y I
36:46
mean this is the exactly the same thing that's going to happen
36:49
mhm all right well we it's not the it's not the big Blockbuster like the Marvel
36:55
movies and the DC movies where people who don't really care about it still go
37:01
because it's say it's a movie we'll go yeah dune's very you got a particular audience
37:07
that's going to go nerds yes and and not normal not the
37:13
general nerds we have today we're talking nerd nerds not the cool nerds
37:17
old school nerds the Nerds that used to be nerds before nerds became cool
37:23
exactly the Nerds from Revenge of the Nerds no they're a little too rapy they're
37:30
remaking that movie did you know and I wonder if I wonder if they're going to
37:34
tweak that ending I don't wonder I'm joking of course they're going to
37:37
[ __ ] change the ending they have to change the entire thing like the whole
37:41
panty raids and sell like setting up cameras to yep watch the girls naked and
37:48
then sell their photos yeah I have a feeling it'll be a different
37:54
movie yeah it's going to be very very different apparently I don't uh I don't know you
38:01
know what [ __ ] it I think Seth Rogan's got something to do with it I might be
38:03
making that up don't have it in front of me I know I know Seth Rogan does want to
38:10
make the last star fighter oh yeah and I think they should let that's a movie
38:15
they should remake and reboot that would be great today you say let I think he could do a
38:21
control I like the way you say let him do it like it's that simple what you
38:24
mean is give him millions of dollars to do it well no uh the there's a guy who
38:29
owns the rights to it and he's no I don't want this to be remade oh so he's
38:35
actually stopping it from being is it that lizard face from the movie yes
38:40
that's him yeah he was always a prick but I don't know that to me that's
38:45
a movie that I think could do well with a reboot yeah it a good movie like and
38:50
it makes more sense with video games that we have today compared to that
38:54
arcade machine he was playing remember they used to have you know in um at the
38:58
PowerHouse Museum where they have the the the spaceship the the shuttle
39:03
shuttle yeah or the space station been it's been like two decades since I've
39:07
been to the PowerHouse Museum they used to last time I went there they had the
39:11
Star Wars exhibit they had well they maybe they still have it they have like
39:15
a setup of like I think it's a space shuttle and it's got the beds that the
39:18
astronauts sleep in or and um on the TV little TV in there was the last star
39:23
fighter I remember that from when I was a kid I was lying in a space bed watching
39:28
lastar photo although more recently when I went there they have them perspects
39:33
perspects over them so you can't get in there so maybe you have a false memory
39:36
of actually being in there cuz maybe you couldn't get in there when I was little
39:40
and I've made that bit up but it was still playing the last star fighter yeah
39:45
I believe that actually I might go watch that again I have not seen that in such
39:49
a long time yeah I haven't either too bad if it sucks wonder if
39:53
it's as good as I remember I bet it's not I used to love this movie I bet it's not
39:59
well next week I'm going to review Wonder Woman and the last star fighter
40:03
it's all happening I watched the movie except for the last what did you watch I
40:08
watched Soul the new Disney Pixar movie
40:13
it's oh I saw that sell on Disney plus now is it how is it what is it what is
40:19
it really good it's really good I liked it a lot felt very um very attacked by
40:25
it to be honest it's about uh a guy who
40:31
he's a music teacher and he's always wanted to be a famous jazz musician well
40:36
he's always wanted to be a jazz musician I think oh it's that type of Soul right
40:41
no no no no it isn't Soul music no no no it isn't it isn't cuz he uh it's not
40:47
really a spoiler it's kind of the plot of the whole [ __ ]
40:49
movie sorry skip ahead if you don't want to hear spoilers for Disney's soul that
40:54
I might accidentally give if it happens in the first 30 minutes of the movie
40:57
It's not really a spoiler right cuz it's kind of just the
41:00
plot okay I'm not the best person to ask
41:04
because I don't care about spoilers I I didn't see any trailers for this so I
41:09
don't know what they revealed all right so he he finally gets a shot in he gets
41:12
a gig with a famous jazz saxophonist but then he dies and his
41:19
soul is on its way to the afterlife but
41:23
he he through circumstance aners Goofs
41:28
around and ends up uh escaping and trying to get back to his body and uh
41:35
with the help of another Soul that's like an unnumbered it's a numbered Soul
41:39
because it hasn't been born yet it's a it's a pre-born soul okay it's got Tina
41:45
Fay I like her she's soul I think 23 Soul 23 um TR resar did the music yeah
41:51
he sure did yeah uh it's really good and
41:56
I it's a it's about how basically the the it's about what what really is
42:02
important at in life at the end of the day is kind of one of the biges is and
42:08
Xboxes and achievements yeah yeah so this guy learns about himself and you
42:14
know what's the point of life and does he need really need to be as worried
42:19
about whether he's a famous jazz musician or does he just you know should
42:25
he maybe just enjoy most cases that we've jazz music musicians they normally
42:29
would become famous after they die well that might be
42:34
true that's that something I've made up in my head you might I think comedians
42:38
too right that's this plot of paully Shaw Must Die My Favorite poly sha
42:44
movie where I I'm Jimi him in a dream and tells him that if he dies he'll
42:50
become a famous comedian everyone will say he was a genius so he faked his own
42:54
death [ __ ] great movie I might watch it because I still have Disney plus and
42:58
I'm not going to get rid of it now because there's stuff coming out next
43:01
month that I want to watch no honestly it's really good I recommend it it it
43:05
does I I felt like it was a bit weak in the second half or like the third act
43:10
brings it home in the third act no well well not 100% it is very good very
43:16
thought-provoking I liked it I felt like it didn't wrap up as as well as I was
43:23
hoping not I was hoping I don't know it's just kind of like oh okay at the
43:26
end like I don't know it just dropped off a bit I felt like after the first
43:30
half there's a there's a lot that's coming out on television movies this
43:35
week it's sort of a bit crazy we've sort of gone from nothing to a lot like even
43:40
this week we've got the third season of Cobra Kai oh yeah haven't watched any of that
43:45
I've the first two seasons are quite good I enjoyed them yeah um the other
43:50
thing coming out on this week is um the
43:53
watch what's that it's a Terry pretet oh
43:58
watch there you go that yeah it's just we've gone from nothing to lots of great
44:03
stuff and I'm going to go out and watch the last star fighter instead H former
44:08
geek of the week Terry pratchet mhm he he does make it even though he
44:14
did take himself
44:19
out we don't know that Luke the official statement is that he died he just died
44:25
stop asking questions
44:28
he just died wink yep yep no he he did
44:33
do that that documentary about yep the
44:37
right to stuff and yep and he wasn't
44:41
himself at the end which is quite sad look he left plenty of Clues but like I
44:47
said the official statement is that he
44:50
died he died that's it moving
44:54
on that's right just enjoy his book look he is he was geek of the week let's
44:59
leave it at that yeah and what this means list is that Luke is willing to
45:05
break and bend the rules for people he likes like Terry pratchet
45:09
yes if it suits my narrative yeah as long as the official story is something
45:16
that Luke can say can point to and say now look natural causes yep I have been
45:22
watching a TV show as well and it is not a TV show I imagine people were
45:27
expecting I would watch what is it it's Elementary is that the sort of modern
45:33
day take on Sherlock where he's yep and he's a recovering drug addict or
45:39
something yes it's the one with Johnny Lee Miller and um [ __ ] what's her
45:45
name I can't remember her name from Lucy yeah Lucy Lou Lucy Lou y had don't watch
45:51
that I've caught a few episodes it wasn't bad it's really good in fact I
45:55
put it to you that it's really good it's a good show to I like those
45:59
procedural shows because you don't really have to pay attention to them all
46:02
because the reason I watch the same formula the reason I watched it is
46:07
because I watched a YouTube video about
46:11
how Sherlock you know the the Sherlock the Benedict Cumberbatch one is actually
46:17
a very bad detective show because in it Sherlock Holmes never does
46:23
any detective work he tells you that he did detective but he never does any
46:29
there's literally one point in the in the whole show I mean I shouldn't
46:34
shouldn't be so melodramatic not literally but in the first episode
46:39
there's a bit where there's a woman in pink who's dead and he does a bit of
46:43
detective work and you kind of get to know why how he figured things out but
46:48
not really he still does a lot of stuff off camera and then just tells you that
46:52
he figured it out but then for the rest of the show most of the time
46:58
he never does any deductive work or detective work in front of you on the
47:02
show he just tells you that he figured it out and then they kind of skip to
47:05
just all the Acy stuff ah and I hadn't really thought about that because I do
47:11
like the show not saying it's a bad show still a good show but absolutely right
47:16
he doesn't do a lot of detective work in it it's sort of great when you come
47:20
across a show like this that's been going for so long cuz you have a lot of
47:24
seasons to get through yeah we've got eight seasons I think of Elementary
47:26
right for for eight years and in this he does do a bunch of detective work it's
47:31
actually really well written so far it's still silly because it's a TV show yeah
47:37
but yeah but he actually does figure stuff out and and and explain how he did
47:42
it not just say oh I figured that out don't worry about it yeah yeah you
47:47
actually see him working it out and not just I did all of this when you weren't
47:52
watching yeah I know that that's uh you know uh
47:57
[ __ ] I'm trying to give an example well in the pilot he finds a a a dead body
48:03
because there's a Panic Room in the house and he knows there's a Panic Room
48:06
in the house because there's a the the floor isn't level because the Panic Room
48:11
is metal and it pushes down the foundations so he walks around a bit and
48:15
then he puts a marble on the floor and the marble rolls towards the wall and he
48:19
says there's a Panic Room there and the police are like what so stuff like that
48:23
stuff that doesn't happen in the other show cuz in the other show they would
48:26
have just cut to him the Panic Room and he says I found the Panic Room and then that's
48:32
it well what mean um H we started watching Bones oh yeah a while ago and
48:38
that's starring Angel fine show starring Angel and Zoe Des Chanel's sister is
48:44
that Zoe Des Chanel's sister yeah there you go I know who she I know what the
48:50
girl looks like I didn't know that was his sister yeah if you actually put her
48:53
in bangs it's they look very similar but I'll find out and I'll put her in
48:59
bangs and I'll let you know how I go we just started watching it and there's
49:03
like 12 Seasons so it's great but I'm starting to panic a little because I'm
49:08
running out of shows I mean there are lot of shows there's a lot of shows but not a lot of
49:14
good shows well I'd recommend Elementary Hannah already watched it Hannah's
49:19
already watched it um I've got bones but yeah there's nothing else that I can
49:24
really think of that's got like Seasons behind it yeah
49:28
yeah H normally if you find something now you'll go through you'll watch it
49:33
all in a couple of weeks and you're done whereas if you find something that's
49:37
been going for8 to 12 Seasons you've got a couple of months in
49:40
there yes trying to think what else I can recommend to you you are you
49:45
familiar with the X Files I doesn't I do want to watch that again but it doesn't
49:52
it doesn't I tried cuz I did go back and I tried to watch the first season and I'm just oh
49:58
God you can't act no it's
50:02
just I mean I think if I I I maybe need to try and go back and maybe start from
50:07
a few seasons in maybe I need to watch Millennium again that's what I need to
50:12
watch I never got into that with my mate Lance in it yeah no I
50:17
never no never that never did anything for me but maybe I'm older now maybe
50:22
I'll understand it maybe you're older now maybe maybe I'm older maybe I'm not
50:27
yeah I'm not sure I don't act older no I'm wearing my Hufflepuff pajamas I
50:34
noticed don't worry I
50:38
noticed Hufflepuff for Life Hufflepuff
50:43
Hufflepuff yep H you've got gryffindors which are brave do thing the Slytherin
50:48
which will do anything to get ahead yeah we sure well you've got the Raven claws
50:53
which are the smart guys and then you've got generic others
50:57
Hufflepuff who are just nice people that's what I'm assuming I'm nice
51:04
or just generic other I'm not sure I would call you
51:10
generic well I went to Poore it said I was a huffle puff and I accepted it it
51:15
said I was a Slytherin which I expected but then I I mean to be fair I
51:21
colored my answers because I did want that outcome I'm not I don't think I
51:24
would actually if I was 100% honest almost certainly would not be a
51:28
Slytherin also we're not allowed to like Harry Potter anymore so we probably
51:31
shouldn't talk about it no were you allowed to like Harry Potter I don't
51:36
think that's true I don't think we are but well I am I do like it you heard it
51:42
here first Luke hates trans I like Harry
51:47
Potter trans people are fine yeah just keep him away from Luke I'm friends with
51:53
people who are trained so am I I'm just being a [ __ ] I see what the problem is I
51:58
don't either I'm just being a [ __ ] so what's George Lucas up to speaking of
52:03
that's my segue speaking of
52:08
racists George Lucas so has has I'm
52:12
confused by this I mean so he he's are they still going to him for Star Wars
52:18
news yeah oh absolutely people still because he's he's he's kind of back in
52:21
the game a little bit I think he got the shits a bit for a while but he's been
52:25
he's been onset for Mandalorian I think he and favro and I mean he and filon
52:30
definitely get along really well that's how the Clone I think he sort of started
52:34
to come back in with like Rogue one yeah yeah well he's been hanging out on set
52:39
because he's there photos of him with um what's it name baby
52:43
Yoda yeah with baby Yoda and Ahsoka but what's what's I can't remember her name
52:49
the actress oh I'm bad with this
52:54
morning um she was in Clerks 2 exactly
52:58
she was in Daredevil Rosario Dawson that's the one with Rosario
53:04
Dawson so he's been onet and stuff like that and I guess so people are asking
53:07
him about things but the the the real reason I guess a lot of these quotes are
53:10
floating around most recently is that the Star Wars
53:14
archives 1999 to 2005 came out which is a book about the prequels so there's
53:20
books about the original trilogy now there's one about the prequels and
53:24
there's an interview well there's a bunch of interviews with Lucas in there
53:27
that have been getting quotes in the media of late ah okay but one of them is
53:33
about how the dialogue in the
53:37
prequels um people have said that it's stilted and wooden and coarse and rough
53:44
and it gets everywhere but George Lucas says it's like sand exactly George says
53:50
it's consistent with the other Star Wars films that is the style of Star Wars and
53:56
he said most people don't understand the style of Star Wars they don't get that
54:00
there's an underlying Motif that is very much like a 1930s western or Saturday M
54:05
serial it's in the more Romantic Period of making movies and Adventure films and
54:09
this film is even more of a melodrama than the others uh he's talking about attack of
54:15
the Clones in particular so he's he's basically saying
54:20
yeah it's intentional yeah but supposed to sound like that but why did you want
54:25
it to sound crap because that's what the old ones sounded
54:29
like but that's they the old ones don't sound like that well he he thinks they
54:36
do the the 1930s movies I mean look he might be right but like I'm I'm not
54:41
comparing I'm comparing it to Star Wars an empire in the frequ do not sound like
54:48
that I
54:51
agree I agree in that yeah well for example the way he made Yoda talk that's
54:57
not how Yoda talked in Empire or Return of the Jedi the way that Yodas became
55:02
voice his mannerisms became a meme like where he always mixes up the the
55:08
sentence structure that's not how he talked so you're right it's not
55:13
consistent in that sense no and it all kind of falls apart when you look at it
55:16
from that perspective I I just go back to the thing of he filmed his first
55:23
script like episode one he sat down wrote went yep we're filming this they
55:28
filmed it even at the first screening where at the test screening where they
55:31
were watching it it gets to the end and he goes he goes well it's long that was
55:36
the best thing he could say about his movie after seeing it for the first time well it's
55:42
long sure is and now you can't just come out and go no this is the style you
55:49
don't understand it yeah well he has done that so he's got you there and he
55:55
got paid 4 bill ion dollar for it so yeah y I mean I get it's still the yeah
56:01
the dialogue in those old because here's the this is kind of
56:06
like if I made a movie right and the dialogue was a bit shitty I could and I
56:10
could just come and say oh it's like I did it intentionally it's supposed to
56:13
sound like this uh TV show I lik when I was a kid oh what's the show oh you
56:16
wouldn't know it it's an old uh Saturday morning thing that probably doesn't
56:21
exist anymore so uh but you just need to accept that I did it on purpose
56:27
yep on purpose I tried to watch episode one a little while ago cuz I was going
56:31
to sit down and watch all the movies I turned it off I did the same thing I
56:34
couldn't do it I could not do it I turned it off I tried to watch everybody
56:40
keeps talking about how Revenge of the Sith are you an angel is better oh
56:45
God why attack of the Clones is worse because literally that scene with Anakin
56:50
and Padme the sand scene it's yeah awful
56:55
it's awful yeah I've just murdered this whole tribe out there but we should make
57:01
out now it's all Obi-Wan's fault he's holding me
57:05
back there's only one line in those three moves that has any feeling and
57:10
it's when Hayden chrisan says I hate you and he was looking past the camera directly at
57:15
[Laughter] George now the I think you've forgotten
57:21
the that line where is Padme no
57:27
[Laughter] everybody talks about how Revenge of the Sith is like actually good I tried to
57:33
watch it again it's not it's not it's just the best of three bad movies it's
57:39
not good I remember being I remember being at the movies we went and saw it
57:42
at the movies the premere we went to the premieres of all of them because we're
57:44
[ __ ] suckers MH and I remember that the opening of Revenge of the Sith Dave
57:50
giv me a thumbs up because it was like this is actually not complete garbage
57:55
but then the it's still not good then the story actually starts to happen again no but
58:01
the beginning is is still not good now watching it again and I'm like this was
58:05
just like it was just not as bad yeah it's still like it still doesn't
58:11
the ships in it don't make sense look I don't think we like Star Wars I don't
58:15
think we actually like Star Wars I like the Star Wars
58:21
Legends I'm still struggling today with what Star Wars has become I like the
58:26
Mandalorian because it's reminding me of the books yeah cuz it's not about all
58:32
powerful Jedi just roaming around doing stuff wow I went on a ranch about this
58:37
about on sa fall today as well I called Jedi the pandas of
58:43
[Laughter] space the pandas of space because they're endangered yep and they won't
58:49
have sex yeah they would have sex oh fair enough and if you look all the most
58:56
powerful Jedi that come out in all of these movies are for Cy people who have
59:01
sex Jedi all dying out you think they encouraging it yeah yeah but not can't
59:08
touch another can't have sex with anyone CU you might turn to the dark side oh
59:12
why are we dying out as a species I don't know species but sure
59:18
what you're saying is get out there and [ __ ] everybody pretty much that's what
59:23
