• 0:35
  Speaker 1: That's the behind. No, I'm really trying to figure it out.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: So behind that, I think it's just like Stue developing.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: It's it's undeveloped land. That's where they're gonna put one
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: of the new lands that we're gonna talk about briefly
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: today because we talk about D twenty three stuff.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, well, good, good for you. I always wanted
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: to be on Disney Cast. And if you can get
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: it into undeveloped that means.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: You're got the Yeah yeah, I will slowly develop as
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: time goes on into what only John Carpenter can say.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: All right, well, we got lots to talk about today.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: We're gonna try and blast through as much of it
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: as we can as quickly as we can, and that
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: means that we're gonna start as we always do, chatting
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: about the stuff we have watched since the last time
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: we recorded.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Which boo boy boo howdy, boo howdie.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Hey, Hey, this might as well be boo howdy. Everyone
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: we know has already embraced the spirit of Halloween, both
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: both the spirit and the store.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: I have not, but that's fine. I like living every
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: day to its fullest.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Also, Ariel hates Halloween. Go ahead, you were going to.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Say, I enjoy giving out full sized candy bars to people.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: I enjoy apple orchards and fall festivals and hot apple
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: cider and hot apple cider donuts and pumpkin spice lattes
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: and all that basic stuff.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: I just I'm just telling the ghosts of Halloween past
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: president future that they've got a person to visit this year.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I just don't live for it.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Which makes you makes you different from almost everyone else
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: we know.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: But I do dress up every Halloween for the two
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: children who are too young to care that come by
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: my house for the full sized candy bars we have
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: and leave with the toy because they're too young for
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: full sized candy bars. Uh. So I embrace the spirit
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: just enough.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know why you're going on and on
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: about Halloween. I just wanted to hear about what you
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: had seen.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, okay, boo, howdye?
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Uh?
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: So many things. I started Picard the final season. It's
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the last of the Star Trek stuff. I have to
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: go through other than lower decks, which I will give
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: another shot to. Uh. And it's not It's not bad,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: but it's not super keeping my attention. So there's that.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I tried an episode of One Piece that also didn't
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: keep my attention, but it was the first episode. It
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: was really weird because I was like, I don't feel
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: like this main actor is quite hitting the right notes.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: And I hate to judge that because as an actor,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: I also struggle sometimes to connect with my material. It's
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: you know, the struggle is real, but then there are
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: moments where he does so it might be a facade.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: So I just I have to watch more of One
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Piece to find out. But it is. The costuming is
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: great and the scenery is great. I watched all of
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: the final season of Umbrella Academy, and because I can
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: often watch things at face value, I didn't have some
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: of the same problems that other people had. I won't
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: discuss it yet. Because Jonathan has finally started that and
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: I'll let him talk about that, but I watched it.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I'm sad it's over because I enjoy those silly people.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: I might have to read the comics now, even though
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the comics the show viear from each other greatly. And
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: then I've watched more Scavenger's Rain, which my remote watch
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: group has dubbed Miyazaki's Animal Planet or something like that
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Miyazaki's Lost because it's really weird and it's very like
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: scene SETI and yeah, and then Never Stop Blowing Up.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: And then lastly Batman, Cape Crusader and Amazon, which is
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: an extra a noir version of Batman that plays with
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the concepts of the different villains that you know and
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: characters that you know, and I'm quite enjoying it very much.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Cool. Maybe I'll check that out too. It's I'm so
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: bad at checking all the ancillary you know, series and stuff,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: especially the animated ones. I just tend to fall behind
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: on all that. But that sounds great. You mentioned I
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: have started watching Umbrella Academy. I'm still just in season one.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I just got started. It's probably gonna take a bit
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: for it to start to really get its hooks in
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: me because of course, when you start off in the series,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: everybody is kind of at odds with each other, and
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: so it's hard to kind of get attached because everyone's
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: kind of talking about what a big jerk everybody else is,
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: and one character is, without question, a big jerk, a
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: big illicit substance taking jerk.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Oh I love him. I love that.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Character, but he's starting off. He's just terrible. He's so
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: selfish and so so like just determined to get his
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: next fix. That's all he is right now. So I
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: haven't seen any other side to that character, just like
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: like he just helps himself to anything that's around him
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: and is willing to do whatever in order to get
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: his next fix of drugs. So until there's more to
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: it than that, I'm not going to connect with it.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I promise you there is more to it than that.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: I'm sure beyond that. I watched Abigail, which you know
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: came out ages ago, but I watched Abigail. That's the
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Ballerina vampire movie, which I said, it's like Megan, but
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: with vampires.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: It's like Megan meets Ready or not, Megan.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Meets Ready or not. Plus Dracula, it was. It was fine,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: it was entertaining. I liked the concept more than I
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: liked the execution. Uh. It also kind of had a
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: similar problem to Umbrella Academy. I didn't really like most
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: of the characters, and you don't get to really know,
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: like by necessity, you don't get to know them very
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: much before they start getting picked off. And if I
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: don't know anything about a character, I'm not gonna feel
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: horror when that character gets dispatched, right Like. It's a
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: tricky thing for a lot of horror movies, which reminds me.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I also watched Taro, which had the same problem. I
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: didn't put it on my list, but yeah, I watched Taro,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: which I had jokes should have been called horror Scope.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: And then at the end of the movie, in the credits,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: I noticed that it was based off a book, and
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: the book's title is horror Scope. And I'm like, oh,
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: so it was called horror Scope Once upon a time.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Because it's all, it's more about astrology than it is
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: tarot cards. Like the tarot cards provide the imagery for
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: like the incarnation of the spirit that comes after each person,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: but beyond that, it's really more about astrological signs and stuff.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I really want to know what our friend of the show,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: shay Lee, would say about it, because she's both a
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: tarot card reader and an astrologer. And I'm wondering if
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: I'm off base by being irritated by it, or if
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: it really is as close as the movie suggests. And
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I watched Jackpot and that's the movie with Aquafina and
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: John Cena, with the premise being that in La they
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: have a lottery. If you win the lottery, you have
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: to survive till sundown in order to actually be awarded
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: the money. Otherwise, whoever kills you gets the money. And
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: they can't use guns. That's really the only rule.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And I didn't get I wouldn't say I got a
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: running commentary of the movie as you watched it, but
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: I did get several comments, and it seems like you
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: enjoyed it.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: I found it entertaining. I thought that Aquafina and John
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: Cena gave very entertaining and simoulu they all gave great
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: performances that were a lot of fun. I felt the
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: material was okay like it was. It was fine for
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: an action comedy. It was very cartoony like it it
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: felt like it was kind of satirizing lots of stuff
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: that's happening today. It's set in the not too distant future.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: But there were as I was telling Becca about last night,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: there were like three or four elements to the movie
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: that just don't make no sense, Like the fact that
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: the main character doesn't know about the lottery and her
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: excuse is that she was looking after her mother in Michigan.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: But like, this is after the lottery's been in place
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: for like four or five years, and I'm just like,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know anyone who would be so buried in
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: taking care of someone and so disconnected that they wouldn't
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: hear that California has a lottery now where people are
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: allowed to kill each other.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Look, I don't want to dive into real life sad stuff,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: but there are plenty of people who are very disconnected
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: from reality.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Sure, sure, I just that was just one of many
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: little things that bugged me. To go into more would
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: required an entire podcast, and I'm not going to burden
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: anyone with that. Is it worth watching? I think so.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: I think it's entertaining. It's got a fun soundtrack. If
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: you like the music from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, you're
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: in luck. If you are a big fan of random
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: eighty songs, you may be lucky again. If you like
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: the Partridge Family, hey guess what. So yeah, it's very
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: weird and silly and violent. So there's that.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, I want to go back to Umbrella Academy for
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: a second. So you said you don't like any of
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: the characters, yet I was drawn in by the episode
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: one dance sequence and then also Vanya's violin playing. Those
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: are both such cool moments, and I was like, yes,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: I want to see more of this storytelling. So that's
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: what grabbed me at first. But which character do you
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: like or do you dislike the least? Since you don't
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: like any of the characters.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, I kind of like Elliott Page's character. I
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: like Elliott Page's character, who I think eventually becomes Victor. Yes, yeah,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: so I like I like Elliott Page's character in the show.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: I connect with that character the most so far, which
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: I think is by design. It feels like that's supposed
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: to be your anchor character. Some of the others also
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: feel like the I don't know all their names, so
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: that's part of the problem. But some of the other characters.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: It's it's not that I actively dislike them. I just
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: haven't found a thing to like about them that much yet.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I I actually like one of the two time traveling hitmen. Yeah,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: I like Hazel. I like Hazel a lot. So at first,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: when I saw Hazel, I thought it was one of
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: the guys from Mischief Theater because he's built the same way.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: But it's not. But yeah, I like him. But again,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: I'm still so early in the series, Like I've only
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: watched like the first and most of the second. Maybe
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: I've seen the second episode all the way through now
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: I don't think I did. I think I got interrupted,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: so I've got a long way to go.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I like Hazel a lot. And then, of like
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: the main seven children, I think my first favorite was
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: actually Luthor, which was many people's least favorite. He's the
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: guy who started out on the moon, the huge dude,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: the huge dude. Yeah, and then a lot of the
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: ancillary characters are really cool, like the mother figure in
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: the household and I can't remember the their caretaker's name,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the chimp, the chimp. But yeah, a lot of the
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: ancillary characters are cool. Okay, I was just curious Yeah,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: that sounds fun. I'm gonna give Jackpot a try for sure.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's I think it's worth watching. I
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: don't think it's great, but I think it's good. Same
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: with Abigail. I don't think it's great. I think it's
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: pretty good. Like it was. I didn't feel like I
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: wasted time watching it, and I didn't regret having watched it.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I'm glad I did. I felt like it could have
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: been better, But who am I to say that? It's
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: not like I write screenplays, so and who knows, Like,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: maybe our listener's out there, maybe it's exactly their jam
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: and they're gonna vibe with it a billion percent, which
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: is awesome.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Would Abigail be too scary for me? Uh?
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: I didn't think Abigail was scary at all. It is bloody,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: but it's not scary. There's some there's some like gross
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: like flesh tearing type stuff going on, like, but I
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: didn't think it was scary, just kind of gross, gotcha?
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Gotcha? Well, that one will probably be put on the
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: back burner for me. So that is all for what
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: we have watched the last two weeks, since we weren't
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: here last week.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, let's do some thirty seconds or less.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: All right, this first story, I was like, this will
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: be easy and quick to talk about, but it's so
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: in depth you guys are just gonna really have to
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: check out though the link. But I will start. So,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: if you're a fan of gravity Falls and have i'n't
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: been following all of the fun drama that's been happening, well,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: there's been a lot of it. There's been a fake
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Twitter account built for it for the Oregon Parks Department.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: There's been a website built for it. This is not
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: a website, dot com and a whole bunch of like
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: really random stuff that is like pointing towards mysteries. And
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: we don't know whether that's going to be the end
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: result is going to be like a new Gravity Falls show,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: or if it's just promoting Alex Hirsch's book, The Book
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: of Bill, which is going to be an adult gravity
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Falls book. But it's a lot of fun. It's very
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: much like how when people were first looking at all
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: the stuff coming out for Lost. We're trying to solve
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: a bunch of mysteries. It's all over the internet. If
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: you're a fan, and even celebrities like Charlie Day and
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: weird Al Yankovic have gotten involved. It's ridiculous cool.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not a crossover between DC and Marvel, but
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Deadpole and Wolverine have defeated the Joker at the box office.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: That is, dead Pole and Wolverine recently topped a billion
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: dollars at the box office and then shortly afterward became
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: the top grossing R rated movie of all time. Of course,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Jokers sequel is coming up soon, so perhaps the clown
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Prince of Crime will have his revenge, the biggest revenge
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: of all. I bet we're going to be getting a
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: lot more R rated superhero movies.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Well, we know we are. I hope Joker doesn't beat
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: out Okay, uh next uh we're getting a or. There
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: is a creature from the Black Lagoon movie being developed
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: by James Wan for Universal. And I'm a little sad
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: because most of James Wand's the body of work I
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: cannot watch. While he made Aquaman and Moral Kombat, he
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: also has done all of the Saw movies and the
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Conjuring and all of that stuff, and I cannot watch
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: the Saw movies. And they're saying that this new version,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: this modernized version, of the Creature from the Black Black
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Lagoon is going to be super scory, scary, super scory.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: I hope it has a good score and then also
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: have like a lot of like Gore in it. So sadly,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: probably not for me. It's my it's my favorite monsters.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: I think the score is just gonna be like sounds
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: of like bloop.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Blue visceral Horror Horse is probably gonna be flesh staring.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, back to Abigail, all right, as we watch the
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Spirit of Halloween takeover empty businesses like some sort of virus.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: We're also looking forward to a couple of video games
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: based off the film franchise Halloween. One of those will
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: be built in the Unreal Engine five game engine, and
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: even better will be created with the guidance of John
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Carpenter himself. We don't have many details other than you'll
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: be able to play as quote unquote classic characters. I
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: can't wait to hear that iconic theme song blast out
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: of my game Boy?
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: Do you have a game Boy?
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: I do, but I don't think this is coming to
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: game Boy?
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Gotcha? So In twenty twenty, Eugene Levy and Dan Levy,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: the father and son duo from Shits Creek one an
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Emmy Award. One Emmy Awards was the first Father Sun
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: duo to do so well. Now they're back to host
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: the Sandy six Emmy Awards on ABC September fifteenth. I
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: think this is kind of cool. Well, I love family
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: dynamic in hosting things, especially when you've got like a
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: very comfortable tongue in cheek sort of relationship. Similarly, Rob
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Low and his son did a Hot Ones challenge and
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: it's just delightful. So while I don't usually watch the Emmys,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I'm definitely gonna be looking for clips of them hosting.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Paramount Global is shutting down Paramount Television Studios today. Many
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: folks will be laid off as a result, but the
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: projects developed under the studio are migrating to CBS Studios,
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: and that includes Reacher, which is on Amazon Prime and
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Time Bandits, which is on Apple TV Plus. This is
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: all following Paramount's announcement that it will merge with relative
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: media newcomer sky Dance. According to a memo, the decision
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: to shut down wasn't a reflection on performance, So I
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: bet that's comforting for all the people who lost their jobs.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I have so many feelings about that. Okay, Squid Game
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: two is on its way. We talked about that recently.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Will they've released a teeny tiny trailer about it doesn't
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: really show anything other than the fact that Lee Jung
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: j will be back, and yeah, that's that's all I
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: gotta say about that, which makes up for some of
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the others going a little bit slow. But I know
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: that if Jonathan puts music behind these guys sometime, So
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: now we're kind whoo Okay.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: The Masters of the Universe live action film has its
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Tea Love, the captain of Attorneya's Royal Guard, and it's
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Camilla Mendez. She was in Riverdale as Veronica, so I imagine
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: she could offer a masterclass in the Smolder, but I've
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: never seen Riverdale, so this is just me guessing. She'll
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: be joining Nicholas Galatzini, whose name I am totally sure
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: I'd butchered. He's playing he Man. He was previously in
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: The Idea of You as well as Red White and
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Royal Blue. And this just feels like word salad to
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: me at this point. It really does.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: It sounds like word salad too, you know, delivered it well,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: but it's yeah, so that's our thirty seconds or less.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: Whoo. Yeah, we blasted through it as fast as we could,
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: and now we can talk about news. First up, we
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: have something that I don't think surprised either of us,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: but I mean it's never fun to talk about. But yeah,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: we had a movie debut and then spectacularly get blasted
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: by negative reviews and hot takes on YouTube. And that,
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: of course, is the film adaptation of boiler Lands. It
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: was directed primarily by Eli Roth, but he famously moved
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: on to work on Thanksgiving while another director came in
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: to do reshoots. So everything I've heard about this just
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: sounds like it's kind of dull and lifeless. Like it's
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: it's not that people are doing a terrible job, it's
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: that the job they're doing isn't good to start with.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I it is interesting because the Rotten Tomato score
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: went up from three percent to ten percent, and the
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: IMDb score went down from like six percent to like,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: from like a six to like a four point three. Yeah,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and most people are saying it's a horrible video game movie,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah. I've seen some like mid reviews of it, though,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: like some people who are like the scenery is great,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: The actions a lot of fun. Some of the characters
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: really get into it, though they don't get enough screen
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: time because there's just too much going on. That seems
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: to be the general consensus.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was feeling a little uneasy about this movie
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: the closer it was getting to actually coming out, Like
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: this was a movie that was in not development hell,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: but it was kind of in a limbo for a while.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: And you know, I think they shot this back in
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: like twenty twenty one, so it's been in the can
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: for a few years now, and that's not typically a
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: really good sign to wait that long, although you know,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: you could argue that some of that was just to
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: make sure that people would be going to the movies again,
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: because that's been an on again, off again thing. Yeah,
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I don't think we're going to be getting a sequel
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: to this one, Sadly.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: No principal photography began in twenty twenty one, so and
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: then reshoots in twenty twenty three, Like some of that
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: might have been pandemic related to though.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: It's Yeah, I'm guessing that this was just one of
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: those things that never quite clicked. Like everything I've seen
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: seems to suggest that they understood the esthetics of the games,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: but not the tone of the games, which is kind
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: of weird because Borderlands is not subtle.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: This might be similar to like the Dark Tower movie,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: where if you if you're a fan of the property,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: it's absolutely horrendous, and if you're not a fan of
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: the property, then it's yeah.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: I think that might be the case. Well, I know
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: that some people had the reaction to this year's D
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: twenty three conference, which is where Disney holds a big
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: event invites a bunch of fans to by invite. I mean,
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: people pay tickets to go to this thing, but you
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: get to go and see Disney do a weekend long
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: pr extravaganza. There's usually some fun panels and stuff where
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: they're talking about like the history of characters and animation
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: and the company and all that kind of stuff, But
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: the main attraction, arguably would be the series of panels
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: they do where they announce upcoming projects, and that includes film, television,
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: theme parks, cruise line, all that kind of stuff. So
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: what did you think, Eh, so you were one of
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: the ass Wow? I actually, well, first of all, please
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: go into more detail, because I did not. I was
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: not I was about the film and TV projects.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I the film and TV TV projects. It's
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: a whole lot of sequels offline. We talked about this
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: a little bit. There are some new things that we're
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: gonna talk about that are coming out. But some of
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: the new things that are coming out we've already seen
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: trailers for, and some of them we have it and
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: they look cute, but they're nothing like mind blowing. But
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: most of the stuff is like a sequel, h spin off,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: and I'm.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, like like Toy Story five five five, Oh.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Gosh, Tron three like and I like Tron. The second
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: one was not as great as if We're but it's fine.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I don't think it needs a third. I don't think
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: there's enough story there for a third. But I mean,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: if it gets surprised.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: Me, if it gets Daft Punk back together, I'm all four.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: But I three.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: I think nine Inch Nails is doing the soundtrack, so
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: not not Daft Punk. And then they talked about like
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: park stuff, right. I did like the clips I saw
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: of like the musical numbers, like they brought in the
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: cast from the Hercules musical that's over in Europe right now,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: and that was fun because I've been interested in that,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: and some of like the Deadpool stuff that they've done
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: and some of the cosplay stuff. But like the parks,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: some of it's cool, like they're making a villain Land,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: but I'd hardly go to the Magic Kingdom ever, and
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: it saves me money, so I wish i'd put it
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: onto like Hollywood Studios, which is more suited for scary stuff.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: No, you're wrong.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: You're so wrong, And like they're putting a Monster's Ink
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Land in Hollywood Steers and I do like Monsters, inc.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't know the other stuff. It
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: just doesn't super excite me. You know, They're they're putting
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: it in Indiana, Jones Land and in Conto Land, and
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: that could be fun, but I don't know enough about it. Uh,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: there's a new Avatar ride that is in not going
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: to be in Florida. There's some Avengers campus stuff that's
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: not going to be in Florida unless Universal comes up
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: there Marble Rights, which isn't going to happen, so I
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: mean it could be cool. I think I will be
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: more excited about the park stuff as I see like
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: more run throughs or or behind the scenes of it
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: and more details about it, but I don't go to
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: the park that often anymore. I enjoy it, but I
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: don't go that often, so it can be exciting, but
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: if I don't get to see it, then it's what.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do go to the parks at least once
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: a year. Typically, I am more excited. Like the villains
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Land thing, I'm very excited for. I've always loved whenever
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Disney puts its villains out in the parks because the
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: cast members get to be a little more playful, I
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: think than a lot of the other cast are, and
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: that's just fun for me. Plus, I think the opportunities
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: for stuff like Halloween and everything are incredible when you
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: have villains as part of your parks makeup. Like the
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: idea of the Villains spelling out a villains Land and
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: taking over the park for a Halloween event, like, I
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: think that would be incredible. I'm excited. Fors No, it
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: doesn't belong in Hollywood studios like Hollywood Studios, isn't home
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: to the tried and true Disney films, like the the
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: mainline Disney stuff. It's Pixar and Muppet since Star Wars,
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: and so yeah, it's I don't think it would fit there.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: I'm all for it being an expansion to Magic Kingdom.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: I am sad that we're going to lose at least
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: part of, if not all, of the Rivers of America
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: and Mark Twain Island Tom Sawyer Island that is that's
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: gonna end up being changed and converted for the new
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Cars Land area. I'm also meant about about that one too.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Like to me, Cars would fit better in Hollywood Studios
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: because that's where all the other Pixar stuff is, with
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: the exception of the One Toy Story Ride, which is
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: in Tomorrowland. But I like, I love the idea of
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: seeing the Encanto stuff. I actually would prefer an Indiana
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Jones right to the Dinosaur Ride. I've ridden the Indiana
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Jones right in Disneyland, and I much prefer that to Dinosaur.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: That being said, it is surprising that they're still trying
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: to make Deanna Jones a relevant property because I don't
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: think the last two movies did in much favor.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: But no, but maybe maybe Classics will will last.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But yeah, I the park stuff I'm excited about
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: more than the films and TV Like, I'm still curious
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: about Agatha all along because I loved WandaVision so much.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: I just don't know that there's gonna be enough there
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: to make me want to tune into every episode. I
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: love Catherine Han so much, but I don't know. I
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: just I just haven't gotten a vibe yet.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, we can talk about vibe a little bit
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: more in the trailer, because when we talk about the trailer,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: because I I got a vibe, but it's not the
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: one I was expecting. I'm okay. I might be excited
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: about the villain Land if they bring back back the
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Extra Terrorrestrial alien Encounter.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Oh that was terrible.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: It was so much fun. I loved it.
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: Oh good, I love well, you know what, you're allowed
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: to love the things you love. Obviously, I was just
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: I never felt like that was a good fit for
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: Magic Kingdom, Like you have all these things designed to
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: delight people, and then here's the experience that makes kids
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: poop their pants and some adults.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: Too in the villain Land.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but also kids love villains too. I know because
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: I've played a villain and I could not shake kids
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: every day.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: But so here's the thing, though, if they will having
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: a villain Land stop Disney from trying to make all
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: of their villains sympathetic. I don't think so, because I
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: don't like when they try to make all of their villains.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: I think that's just going to be a thing, because, like,
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: here's the reason why Disney makes villains sympathetic. It's because
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: it gives them the chance to make another movie from
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: the villain's perspective and tap into the ip that everyone's
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: already familiar with, and that is far more COmON than
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: trying to make something brand new and potentially have it
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: go nowhere strange world.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: That that was their fault for not marketing.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: I agree. I agree one that it was a marketing
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: failure and that it probably would have done much better
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: had there been any marketing put behind that movie at all.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: But to the executives, they're often thinking, oh, we tried
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: something new and people didn't want it, so let's make
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Frozen three and four, which they are doing.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, there was one cool thing about Frozen. At d
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: twenty three, we got to see the inner workings of
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: the reindeer, oh sven Sven, which was cool.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: So let's talk a little bit about some of the trailers,
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: because not all of them, not all the footage that
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: was shown off at D twenty three has appeared as
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: its own trailer. You can find people's like people shot
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: the entirety of the D twenty three announcements, and if
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: you're willing to sit down for like two and a
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: half hours, you too can watch it from the view
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: of a cell phone camera.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: But yeah, stuff like Daredevil and Thunderbolts are have leaked footage.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but will Well, we're just going to talk about
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: the ones that have the actual teasers or trailers released.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: And first up is the snow White quote unquote live
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: action teaser.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Hmmmm. My biggest problem with this is that they made
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: all of the dwarfs CGI why and all of the animals, Like,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I get that you do that so that you aren't
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: creating any animal cruelty issues, and I agree with that,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: but if everything else is CGI other than the Princess
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: and the Evil Queen, what is even the point?
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: Agreed? But that's how I felt about the Lion King too, right, Ah,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: me too, because because like they would, everyone was calling
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: it live action. I'm like, this isn't live action. It
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: might be shot against a real background in some cases,
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: but this is all CG. This is still animation. It's
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: just cgi it's not hand drawn or animation that's done
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: in a cartoony style. But still and say there was
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: snow White. Yeah, I uh, well, snow White has never
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: been very high in my estimation of Disney films anyway.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: I don't have a particular attachment to it.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: They I mean, we've talked about it a whole bunch
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: on business on the brink, a whole bunch.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because it could have bankrupted the company.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and then we've talked about the technology behind it. Like,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: it's not been my favorite one because they kind of
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: exploited some of their actresses from it. And then two,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: you know, Disney changes every story it tells, and in
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: this case, they just took out everything that was cool
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: about snow White, all of her cleverness right, and all
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: of her her foiling the evil queen multiple times. If
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: I'm I don't think that happened. Maybe it did, No,
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, like.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: It was essentially the only bit was where she got
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: the apple. I don't think they had the earlier attempt
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: where the Queen tries to trick snow White and snow
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: White seas through it but with the comb and.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: The laces and stuff. Yeah. So Yeah. Yeah, I'm not
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: excited about this one.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Me neither. That's not to say that the actress playing
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: snow White is doing a bad job. I don't think
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: that's true. As for Galgadot, I mean, I'm sure she
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: does the best as what she can, but you know,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: I don't have a burning desire to see this one.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Next up, we have the trailer or a teaser for
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Star Wars Skeleton Crew, and I think you pretty much
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: nailed it when you gave me your kind of elevator
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: pitch description of this series.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Star Wars meets Goonies. It starts like it
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: starts off in suburbia, and you have to look closely
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: to realize that it's not like modern idyllic suburbia.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Right right, Yeah, it looks like it looks like it's
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Stranger Things, because it doesn't just look like suburbia. It
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: looks to be like nineteen eighties era depictions of suburbs, like,
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: you know, not entirely, but close enough where I'm like, oh, yeah,
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: this feels like it's another nostalgia grab.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, But then there are aliens in Star Wars stuff,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: and it's these kids go on an adventure and leave
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: their suburbia into the wilder depths of Star Wars like
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: it feels very It feels very built for kids and
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: young adults, and that is totally fine. I don't know
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: if he grabs me of like, I definitely have to
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: see this one.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: I don't have.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: Quite enough of a hook in it. But that's also
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: because I'm not that demographic anymore. But I you really
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: like the fact that they are exploring some new stuff
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: within the Star Wars universe. Shab like that too.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: It doesn't feel very Star wars Ish to me, like
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: it looks too too pretty and too clean and everything
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: for it to Star Wars always felt like it was
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: such a lived in universe. But that's fine, you know,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: it doesn't have to cater to my particular perspective on
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Star Wars. It is funny because it does seem to
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: fall into that category of movies where group of kids
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: encounter grouchy older person and then ultimately they all work together,
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: except in this one, the grouchy older person also happens
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: to be a Jedi.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I wonder if Jude Law, who plays the grouchy
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: old Jedi, wore the same perfume that he made for
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Firebrand for the kids on the show. I hope not.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, I had totally forgotten about that. Now now you're
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: sparking a memory.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: It's okay.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: At least it's it's at least it's not as old
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: factory memory.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: It's not. I didn't. I never got a snort of that,
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: but it was rather unpleasant as I recall.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but you know what, I will keep an
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: open mind because I feel like this first teaser trailer
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: doesn't really show much of the plot.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I it may turn out that it's one of
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: those movies where it's kind of like, oh, yeah, if
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: I were a kid today, I would eat this up.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: And maybe maybe it's not really my thing today. And
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: that's fine too. Next up, we got a bit of
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: a longer trailer for Mowana too, where it's Moana also
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: and she is trying to find all the other island
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: peoples who have been sailing the ocean.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: All the other multiverse Malana.
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, it's a multiverse. It's actually an MCU movie. They
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: didn't tell you that. But Doctor Strange, No, no, none
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: of that's true.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: So Mali is Doctor Strange's friend.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: There Oh Wong it's the version of Wong in this universe.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: It it looks good like, I mean, the animation looks
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: good like. We don't know enough of the story apart
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: from the fact that Malwana's a wayfinder and she's kind
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: of doing her job, and that there's a there's a
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: barrier in the way of all the people's excuse me,
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: of all the people's reuniting, and we don't fully understand
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: the nature of that barrier yet. I'm sure this will
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: be fine.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks it looks good enough. It looks like
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: the story is different enough from the first one and
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: interesting enough to merit it being made. Do I have
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: a great desire to go see it now? But maybe
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: more of a desigreier than a lot of the other
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: things that they talked about.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I really liked the first Molana a lot.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: And so is that just because Jamaine Clement was in it?
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: Not just because, But I will say that his performances
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: as Tomatoa was definitely one of the highlights of that
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: movie for me. But Lin Manuel Miranda's music was great.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: I love the animation. I loved exploring this kind of
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: mythology and those stories. It really I got emotional watching Moana.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: I did not get emotional watching Mowana to trailer, but
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: it's just a trailer, so who knows.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I also did not get emotional watching the
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: Mufasa second trailer.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: I got a little emotional, but none of them were
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: good ones.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I So in this trailer they show that
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Mufasa was adopted, which does explain why Scar would be
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: extra angry when Mufasa becomes king, and he doesn't but
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: it all. He also puts a lot of really bad
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: implications on Mufasa as to why he is insisting that
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: his son become this nobility royalty over all of the
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: Savannah because he's not actually royal. And like, I get
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: that when you're adopted into a family, you are family, right,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter where your blood comes from. So I've
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: got very mixed feelings on that, but I think it's
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: also unnecessary.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: It also seems to be doing the thing you said
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: you don't like, which is it's making the villain sympathetic,
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: and that it's really like Scar is coming across as
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: very much the wrong to party, at least in the
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: trailer where like Scar seems to genuinely have affection for
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: his brother, and yeah, I don't considering that Scar kills
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: spoiler alert Mufasa in liking what you just skip over
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: that part. Oh, you just have them scan through it
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: real quick.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. I watched Lion
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: King in the theater and I don't remember that.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: I don't understand why Simba's so sad all of a sudden. Yeah,
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: I didn't like this trailer. I'll just yeah, I just
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: planed out did not like it, like I have noice.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: First of all, I don't like the CGI of Lion
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: King in the first place. I have never watched the
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: CGI went all the way through because I found it
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: so off putting. I love the original animated version, and
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: if they had made an animated prequel, Maybee, I would
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: be more interested. But that's a hard thing to say.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: I know lin Manuel Miranda did the music for this
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: one too, which is intriguing, but it might be one
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: of those things where I'll only listen to the soundtrack
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: and never bother seeing the movie.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they made a Lion King prequel,
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: but they sure made a lot of sequels off of
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: the original. Card toon.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Lion King one and a half, and yeah, I watching.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: They're great, actually really entertaining. They're not as good as
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: the original movie, but they are fun.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: I thought that I would like this trailer at one
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: moment because we see a herd of very pale lions,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, are they doing a nod to the
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Simba movie that people say Disney ripped off to make
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: the lion case?
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: But I don't think they are. I will say, like,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: if they had made, I think it's a matter of
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: realizing realism, because while animals do a mote not near
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: to the extent that cartoons do, right. Yeah, But like,
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: and I know this has gotten mixed reviews. We got
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: a brief like look at CGI Stitch and I had
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: a lot easier time with that because it didn't have
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: to match anything but a cartoon. It didn't have to
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: look like a real existing animal, right right.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: It's not like Stitch is, you know, actually an Ardvark,
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: and they just had to, you know, make it conformed
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: to an actual ardvarks anatomy. Stitch is an alien and
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: therefore thing expression that you will not find on terrestrial animals.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: That's fair game. So yeah, I agree, it did not
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: suffer from that same issue. Yeah, there's a lot of
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: challenges between making characters who are non human and can
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: emote and yet not falling into Uncanny Valley issues. Yeah. Yeah.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: Next up, we've got the thing that we promised earlier.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: We've got our reaction to the Agatha All Along trailer,
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: which largely has the sound of the various witches singing
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: a song about the road. There's a lot of road
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: imagery and symbolism in this trailer. What's at the end
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: of that road? I don't know. I couldn't figure that
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: out from this trailer, but apparently it's really important, to
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: the point where there's actually like Wizard of Oz references
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: in the trailer.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know our audience loves one I type. You
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: know what, what's going to be at the end of
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: the road is going to be a dotty spinoff.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm all for it.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I I don't mind that this is going to
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: be darker, but it definitely doesn't feel like the thing
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: I loved about Agatha in Wanda Vision. She just had
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: this great, amazing, fun personality, and I understand that this
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: story behind it is why. You know, it shows that
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: it was a coping mechanism basically, and you know that
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: maybe she's the wronged party, but it just it doesn't
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: have the vibe that Agatha had in Wanda Vision, and
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: I think it's that vibe that really made people want
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: to have a sequel about her.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: There were a couple of moments, but they were scattered
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: in that trailer, right like, and one of those moments
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: wasn't even with Agatha. Is with Aubrey Plaza's care like
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: au replause. I kind of had that like, oh, the
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: bodies are really stacking up, and I was like, oh,
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: I could totally have heard Agatha saying a similar thing
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: in season one of WandaVision, and Agatha at the end
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: is like last one in is a good person like
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: that kind of thing. I'm like, Okay, Yeah, these are
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: those little kind of sly ry deliveries that made people
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: want a series about Agatha, and maybe that is more
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: consistent throughout the show, but the trailer doesn't really showcase that.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so I'm not. I mean, I was never
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: that excited about an Agatha All Along spin off.
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: I'll still try and watch this one because I loved
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: WandaVision so much. It's still my favorite of all the
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: Disney plus MCU series with the possible exception of what If.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: What If is pretty good too, But that's like a
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: bunch of one offs, right, Like it's not a series
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: the same way, But I'll probably check it out. But yeah,
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: it wasn't. It didn't blow me away. Nothing, Nothing that
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: I saw this year blew me away.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Same. I will probably watch it because I'm an
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: MCU completionist, and maybe I'll enjoy it. It does have
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: a flip and amazing.
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: Cast, so it does pel of hones in that it's
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be amazing, uh, in the sense of like
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: like you know, those actors are not gonna leave anything
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: on the table. They're gonna they're gonna chew the scenery.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: They're gonna have a fun time with the material. Just
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: the question is how good will the material be.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we did get a trailer for at least one
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: new property, which is Win or Lose.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this looks This looks cute.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's about like a softball team. It's a it's
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: a a CGI animated thing.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was it Will Forte who plays the coach.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Was that the name? Now naral All it's going to
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: be type again again because I asked a question that
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: she doesn't know the answer to. And I did watch
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: this trailer, but I didn't watch it immediately before we recorded,
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: so it's not as fresh in my mind. But I
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: did think that the trailer was cute, and Ariel and
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: I both agreed that there appears to be some sort
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: of supernatural or super powered thing going on, but it's
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: not at all really addressed in the trailer, so we
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: have no idea.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Will Forte is the coach. Okay, yeah, it
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: looks cute. It's an animated thing. I don't know that
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: I'm like chomping it the bit to see it, but
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: it definitely looks cute. I've liked all of their other
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: I like all the other stuff that Disease come out
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: with recently that has a little bit more of that
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: family feel, like Turning Red and in Conto and stuff
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: like that.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: So inside Out.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't watch the second one, but I did like
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: the first one.
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: I've only seen the first one. I haven't seen the
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: second one either. Yeah, Pixar typically is pretty good at
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: creating fun and funny characters, so with like a whole
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: softball team, there's obviously a lot of opportunity to make
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: a lot of funny characters, and for that reason, this
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: is one where like it'll probably be like Turning Red
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: for me. Turning Red was a movie where I didn't
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: have any real Turning Red wasn't Pixar, but I didn't
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: have any real expectations going into Turning Red, and then
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: I went and saw it and was absolutely delighted, And
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: so I'm trying to keep that kind of mindset for this. Yeah. Same.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: Oh. We did also hear that they're making a new
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Freaky Friday, which I feel like freak Here Friday, which
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: just happens every so often. You either get a new
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: Parent Shop or a new Freaky Friday.
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I and this one's gonna have Lindsay Loewen and
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: Jimmie Lee Curtis back. It was so funny because when
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: I was telling Becca about the announcements, I kept that
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: one last I'm like, oh, and then they're making freak
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: Here Friday, and Beca looked at me, like, you're lying.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: I looked at her and I said, google it. I'm like,
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: I am not, Like I know. It sounds like a lie,
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: because who the heck was asking for a sequel to
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: Freaky Friday, and uh, yeah.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: It's gonna have Manny Jacinto in it, and uh that's great.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: He's he he's from a good place, the good placed place.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: I think it needs to have Vince Vaughn in it
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: as the killer from from that other from Freaky that
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: other movie, the horror one. Okay, okay, and and throw
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: that into the mix, and that'd be a real good time.
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: Why not. So now we're gonna go from the Happy
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: World of Disney, which you know, it didn't blow us away,
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: but at least it didn't make us too sad.
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: Too, to Sony Spider Verse to Sony Spider Verse. Yeah, which.
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, like, I like the Spider Man movies.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: I like the Venom movies, but some of their stuff
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: is just way more of a miss than a hit.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: And I think the new trailer for Craven is solidifying
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: that Craven will be a miss for me as well.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's just based on the trailer, it
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: looks like it could be better than Morebs or Madam Webb,
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: but not as good as all the rest of the stuff.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because they took out all of the stuff that
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: made the first trailer like all of the exposition for
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: the storyline that was in the first trailer that was
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: just so dumb.
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: Like giving giving, giving craven lion blood and that kind
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: of stuff.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they kind of vaguely touch on it,
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: but it's much more of like a quick brush mentioned and.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: I will I will say that he is so jacked
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: in this trailer. Like I think of him as the
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: assassin in Bullet Train. Was it Bullet Train? Yeah, I
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: think of him in that role where he's Lemon. Yeah,
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: well he wasn't Lemon. The other one was he was Tangerine. Yeah,
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: I think of him as Tangerine, and like he was
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: like kind of wiry in that, right, Like he didn't
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: look jacked, but he is jacked for this movie.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, was he jacked in Kick Ass?
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: Not really? In fact, that was part of the gag, right,
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: was that he was kind of, you know, not good
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: at being a superhero. It's it blows my mind that
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: that's the same actor, because to have seen someone grow
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: up like that. First of all, it reminds me that
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: I'm old. But yeah, I I because I like the actor.
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: I want to like this more. And I went into
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: I went into it wanting to like it more because
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: like when I when I saw the original teaser, it
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: was before I had seen Bullet Train, And I don't
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: think Bullet Trains a very good movie, but I think
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: he is incredible in that movie. He's so entertaining.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: I think Bullet Train is a very fun movie.
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: Parts of it are fun and and I think I
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: think he and his UH scene partner Lemon Tangerine and
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: Lemon are like the highlight of that movie. I could
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: watch an entire movie about those two.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: Characters for sure. Yeah, I want to like the Sony Verse.
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: I want it to I want it to succeed. It
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: is interesting, Like I wonder if he's going to get
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: the same blowback that Aaron Taylor Johnson right that Hugh
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Jackman is getting for extra Beef and out for Deadpool
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: and Wolverine, because some people are like, well, he's setting
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: unrealistic body standards because he wasn't that jacked in the
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: first X Men movie, And I'm like, he's gotten older
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: and wireyar and it looks like it to me, And
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: you know, they're being healthier than I ever was to
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: get this body, so I should not.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, apart from apart from perhaps dehydrating themselves for
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: like two days before shooting because they want to get
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: the skin as thin as possible, so those abs really pop.
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but eating a lot of green beans and telapia
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: is good for you, So.
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: So uh, we're gonna blast through some other Like. Of course,
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: I put horror movie and series trailers toward the end
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: of our episode because that's that's what I do. Not
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: on purpose this time, it's just because that's how things unfolded.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: But we got a trailer for a what looks to
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: me kind of like a satire slash sort of horror
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: movie called The Substance with De me More in it,
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: and it's about an aging model it looks like who
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: is offered the chance to use this experimental genetic treatment
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: that revives her youth literally early. She's played by a
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: different person.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is what this different person looks
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: like one of my friends. It always throws me whenever
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: I see her in something. It doesn't look too scary
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: for me, because, like you said, it's satirical. But I
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: will say, like, the trailer was so so fast, and
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: not just because I watched it on one point five.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: Speed though that helped by fifty percent by fifty percent.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: Look when when it's scary stuff, which you told me.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: The substance was, I watch it a little faster so
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: that I can get through it and like it. Just
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: it's it seemed very manic, and maybe that's part of
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: the story point, like just all the fast paced can't
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: keep up hollywoodness, but had I had a hard time.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: I had a hard time watching it.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: At one and a halftime speed, I think does contribute
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: to that. I didn't feel that because because I actually
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: have issues with stuff that has lots of quick cuts
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: and manic energy. It's why I've never been able to
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: sit through an entire Baz Lureman movie because the camera
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: ankles changed so far frequently that I can't there. It
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: breaks the continuity of the moment in my brain and
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: I can't follow it. Which is not to say that
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: the movies are bad, but that my brain is wired
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: in such a way where I just I am just
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: left kind of agog and not really comprehending what's going
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: on when I watch something like a Baz Lureman film.
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: And I didn't get that feeling with this. So maybe
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: the faster speed contributed to that. I thought it looked interesting, Like,
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: this is probably one I won't go see in the theater,
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: but I would. I can imagine myself watching it at home.
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it does look interesting. It's definitely you know, Hollywood
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: has been agist. Hollywood and media in general has been
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: agis more towards women than men. Like men when they
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: get wrinkles, oh they're They're still handsome, they're solar fox.
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: And when when they get wrinkles, they're toldal, they look old.
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: As an actress, I feel this every day when I
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: look in the mirror and I'm like, ah, I want
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: to fix this, and I want to fix it, and
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: I want to fix this about myself. But it is
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: also hard to judge because I'm like, it is so
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: ingrained in my brain as a woman that I'm like,
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: would I if I didn't feel like society wanted it
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: to deem me beautiful? Would I still want it? And
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: I might? Yes, it might be my stay.
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know, it's I mean, you're you're asking some
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: tough questions, which interestingly also spills over into our next story,
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: but only on a meta level. So next up, We've
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: got We've got a trailer called here After, where Connie
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: Britton plays a mom whose daughter essentially dies but is revived,
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: and after she's revived, it appears that she's brought something
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: back with her. So this looks like it's kind of
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: a demonic possession sort of film, or at least it's
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: raising that possibility. It looks like they're also trying to
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: play with the idea of maybe it's not maybe it's
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: a purely psychological thriller kind of movie. It's hard to
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: say based off the trailer, but the metapart was that
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: I showed Ariel that when I was looking at trailers
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: there were two instances of this trailer that were literally
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: next to each other, like one on top of the other,
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: and the thumbnail for one made Connie look a little
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: older and more haggard, and the thumbnail for the other,
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: which was the exact same picture, had been smoothed over
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: and made her look a little less old. And I
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: think the truth is somewhere in the middle. I think
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: both pictures have been manipulated to some degree.
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, again, I understand that there is a frustration that
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: they shouldn't have to manipulate it, but maybe, like I
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: feel like you're going to manipulate a photo make it more,
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: and it isn't the point. The point of this movie
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: here after is not that this woman looks so rough
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: because of what she's going through. She does look worried
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: and rough because of what she's going through, but that's
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: not the point of the movie, right. So if you
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: are going to touch somebody, do it in their favor
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: and not to their detriment. I get that there's frustration
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: that you people would feel the need to do it
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: at all. But I might have been like, oh, that's
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: a cool shot, but I don't quite like the way
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: I look in it in a still photo. Could you
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: touch it up? And so I'm if the actress isn't upset,
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to be upset.
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know how anyone feels about it. To me,
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: it's just it was the fact that these two different
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: versions of the same thumbnail appeared literally next to each other,
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: which is just you know, just by the search algorithm
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: on YouTube. It's not like it was done on purpose
• 58:40
  Speaker 2: that way. It just happened. That made me even notice,
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: Like if I had seen them and they had been
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: separated from each other, like there have been a few
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: other thumbnails in between, I probably wouldn't have even clocked it,
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: but the fact that they were right next to each
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: other made it really obvious.
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure. This next trailer I also watched
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: on one point five speed, and I only watched bits
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: of it because there were some things in it that
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: hit my no button.
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Aeriel. So it's a series that's coming
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: out on Hulu called Grotesquaie, And the fact that you
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: watched a one point five I'm like, it must have
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: just looked like colors to you.
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: No. No, I followed it. I followed the storyline. It
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: was the meat grinder. The meat grinder made me go.
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: But I'm sure you've used a meat grinder, right, I
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: have one.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: I grind a really good beef bacon burger. It's very good.
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: But yes, watching it in context with the rest of
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: this trailer, Jonathan made it look like that was people
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: meat and that creeps me out.
• 59:48
  Speaker 2: I just looked like regular old pork and beef. See.
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: I don't eat mammals, so to me, you would think
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: it would creep me out anyway, whether it's people or otherwise.
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: But uh, to me, it was funny because Nissi Nash
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: is playing the lead in this, and I think of
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: her from Reno nine one one, Right, she's one of
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: the sheriffs in or part of the sheriff's department in
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: Reno nine one one. So to see her taking on
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: a serious role in like a a supernatural police procedural
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: is really doing a number on my noodle.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: I I but I love when comedic actors get a
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: chance to play serious.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: And I'm sure she'll do a great job. It's just
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: getting past. Like when I hear that voice, I can't
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: help but think that Dangle's gonna come around the corner,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: or you know, Garcia is gonna be shouting something incredibly inappropriate.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: So that's no fault of hers. But I will say
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: like this looked like it was reminding me of Edgar
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: Wright in the sense of the lighting, like Edgar Wright,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: like Last Night in Soho, kind of which owed a
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: lot to Italian jallo movies. But uh, this this felt
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: like it was taking a lot of notes from that.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: I Yeah, I feel like it's it's the the visuals
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: of Edgar Wright with the story line of True Detective,
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: because it's about someone investigating murders who pairs up with
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: a nun and there's a lot of like bad stuff
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: going on in the small town.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I uh, I think I agree. Like I'm intrigued
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: and if I if I have Hulu later this year,
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: maybe I'll watch it. If I remember in November that
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: that's when I can add Hulu to my bundle, then
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: maybe I'll watch it.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: You'll probably remember because we're gonna keep talking about Hulu shows.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean we also open We've got so
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: like I don't know about you, but my the last
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: little leg of this year, I've got so many trips
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: lined up that I might be missing some episodes I did.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: I did all of my trips at the beginning.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: I've got I've got a trip to two trips to Pennsylvania,
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: a trip to Florida. There's another one that I can't
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: remember it because I got like, oh, I've got one
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: to California and one to Texas coming up.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: So I might also have a trip to Pennsylvania. I
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: don't know, but but that would be it for this year. Really.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, last up, we have some interesting science news
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: from the Red planet.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So scientists use some technology that they use on
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: Earth to find water underground and oil and crude oils
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: and things like that on Mars, and they found out
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: that there's a bunch of water deep under Mars that
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: not all of it had been lost to space. And
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: I put this in our lineup because there's a whole
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: Doctor episode Doctor Who episode about people who have a base,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: like scientists who have a base on Mars, and they're
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: using the water under Mars as they're drinking water, and
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: they get infected with like this creature called the flood
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: and they all like are basically taken over infested by
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: this creature and turn evil and it's a really scary episode.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: It's it's kind of a sad episode of Doctor Who.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, please, please, please do not tap into
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: that water, as cool as it is, because we've learned
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: Doctor Who told us that it'll be bad.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't think we need to worry about that
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: anytime soon because we have no way of getting it
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: back here yet.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: But they were drinking it on the thing.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saying, like, we we humans here on the
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: real planet Earth have no way of returning the water
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: here and we have no one going to Mars, so
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: there's no risk of ingesting Martian water in the near future.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: And if it does happen. It'll happen to Elon Musk,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: and I can't think of a nicer guy for it
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: to happen to.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, you don't know if there's
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: really a tartist out there, but your stinger was better than.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: Well. I think this is super cool news. Like you said,
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: you know, the fact that Mars' atmosphere is so thin
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: means that water on the surface would very easily boil
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: off and then potentially get lost to space. On Mars
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: as such weak gravity, and no, it doesn't have like
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: the magnetosphere that Earth has, like it's magnetosphere as far
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: less strong, so radiation from the Sun impacts Mars the
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: surface of Mars much more than it would the surface
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: of Earth. So the fact that they were able to
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 2: discover this, that's phenomenal. It always brings up new questions,
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: which is exciting because science is all about finding new
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: questions and trying to find the answers. So I think
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: that's really neat.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't need to overshadow the cool with the
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: horrifying blood.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: No, I think that was good too. I thought that
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: was cool too. Like I, I'm not familiar with that
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: Doctor Who episode. I will say, calling your your infection,
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: the flood just makes me think of Halo because because
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 2: that's what the that's what the parasitic creatures that can
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: latch onto intelligent life and corrupt them, they are called
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: the flood.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: So well, it's very similar. So I don't I don't
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: know that maybe I got it wrong, or maybe they
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: took it from Halo, or maybe Halo took it Doctor
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: who would have taken it from Halo? I'm pretty sure
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: Halo predates that episode of Doctor.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: I'm not certain, gotcha? Well, that I think is all
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: of our news.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So, Jonathan, if folks want to reach out to
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: us to talk about what they're excited from D twenty three,
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: we're excited about from D twenty three, I swear I
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: can make sentences or to tell us anything else that's funny, geek?
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: How do they do that?
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: So you're gonna travel down to Kassimi, Florida, and you're
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: gonna buy yourself a ticket to the Magic Kingdom. You're
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: gonna go to the Transportation of Ticket Center because that's
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: the only way you're gonna get to the Magic Kingdom.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: You're gonna either take the monorail or the ferry. I
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: recomend the ferry. It's a nice ride, and you're gonna
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: go on across the bay and get to the Magic King.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 2: You're gonna go march down Main Street, take in the atmosphere.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: It's nice. You're gonna get over into that kind of
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: hub area where the castle is. I'm gonna need you
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 2: to make a bee line for Frontier Land, and as
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: you're walking there, you're gonna go along the Rivers of America,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: which are not long for this world, so enjoy that
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: while that lasts. And then you're gonna walk along. You're
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: gonna take a left at the Rivers of America. Walk
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: down that way. You're eventually gonna come to the actual
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: landing where you can get on a raft that will
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: take you over to Tom Sawyer Island, assuming it's open
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: that day. Your odds are not good. But if it
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: is open that day, you're gonna take that raft on
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: over to Tom Sawyer Island, going to get off the raft,
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: walk onto the island. You're going to look for the cave.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: It used to be called Engine Joe's Cave. But you know,
