Speaker 1: Hey, party people, Welcome to the Large Nerdrug Collider, the
0:13
Speaker 1: podcast that's all about the geeky stuff happening in the
0:16
Speaker 1: world around us and how very excited we are about it.
0:19
Speaker 1: I'm Ariel Caston, and with me, as always is the
0:23
Speaker 1: amazingly wonderful Jonathan Strickland.
0:26
Speaker 2: Everybody's got the right to be happy.
0:29
Speaker 1: Truth.
0:30
Speaker 2: Just don't just don't ask me where that's from, Okay.
0:35
Speaker 1: Is it a reference to a show later one of
0:38
Speaker 1: the stories later on?
0:40
Speaker 2: Not even a little bit. It's a reference to a
0:42
Speaker 2: Stephen Sondheim musical that is rarely performed.
0:47
Speaker 1: Gotcha, gotcha my my musical theater nerd Heads hangs its
0:53
Speaker 1: head in shame. Uh yeah, we got a lot of
0:58
Speaker 1: stuff for you this week. Despite riders strike, there's still
1:03
Speaker 1: lunckeky things happening.
1:05
Speaker 2: Yep, and we well. I apologize for the fact that
1:09
Speaker 2: you're dealing with a double load of episodes because I
1:14
Speaker 2: got real behind on doing the last one. But I
1:18
Speaker 2: already explained in the last one what happened, so I
1:21
Speaker 2: won't I won't go over it again. But this is
1:23
Speaker 2: also my apology to you, Ariel, for that having happened.
1:26
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not worried about it, and for our listeners,
1:29
Speaker 1: you know, double your podcast, double your fun with doubleman go.
1:33
Speaker 1: I don't know, It's all good because we're here to
1:39
Speaker 1: have fun, and man, do we have a lot of
1:42
Speaker 1: fun things to talk about, mostly fun things to talk
1:46
Speaker 1: about this week. Yes, I guess we should just jump
1:51
Speaker 1: right into our thirty seconds or less then huh.
1:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, And this time Ariel's got more to say than
1:57
Speaker 2: I do, so we're going to have her go first.
2:02
Speaker 1: Yes. The first thing is, I know you guys have
2:04
Speaker 1: all been on pins and needles with as much of
2:06
Speaker 1: as I've been talking about Diablo four. But earlier I
2:11
Speaker 1: had mentioned that the first certain amount of people to
2:14
Speaker 1: hit hardcore level one hundred or level one hundred in
2:17
Speaker 1: Hardcore mode and Diablo four we get a special prize. Well,
2:20
Speaker 1: the first person to do that has done so. This
2:23
Speaker 1: past week, Woudijo hit the cap. They said that it
2:29
Speaker 1: was hard, the last couple of hours are really grueling,
2:33
Speaker 1: but they did it and it took them four days.
2:36
Speaker 1: So you can. You still have the opportunity to hit
2:40
Speaker 1: level one hundred at hardcore mode, but I don't know
2:43
Speaker 1: for how long.
2:44
Speaker 2: Yes, And in case you forget that's when you're playing,
2:48
Speaker 2: and when you're dead, you're dead.
2:50
Speaker 1: You're dead, which I have. Okay, this is thirty seconds
2:53
Speaker 1: to us.
2:54
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, here we go. You might remember from a
3:00
Speaker 2: few weeks back we talked about how Nicholas Cage will
3:02
Speaker 2: be added to the Dead by Daylight, asynchronous competitive multiplayer game,
3:06
Speaker 2: but we didn't know if he would be a survivor
3:09
Speaker 2: or a killer. Now we know he's a survivor, which,
3:12
Speaker 2: when you look back at the choices he's made in
3:14
Speaker 2: his acting career, makes a lot of sense. I mean,
3:17
Speaker 2: you know, to still get work after the Wickerman. The
3:20
Speaker 2: dude is a survivor for sure.
3:23
Speaker 1: Bees you've never seen the wicker Man.
3:27
Speaker 2: Not the bees. Not the bees.
3:29
Speaker 1: I've never seen it. Next is a thing that I
3:32
Speaker 1: hope hits your happy geek spot. That sounds wrong. Rocksmith
3:37
Speaker 1: Plus is coming to iOS and Android if you're not familiar.
3:39
Speaker 1: Rocksmith is a game where you basically plug a guitar
3:43
Speaker 1: into your game system and learn to play guitar by
3:48
Speaker 1: learning various techniques and notes and fingerings and songs. And
3:52
Speaker 1: now they've got a subscription based rock Smith Plus that
3:55
Speaker 1: you can do. But it's coming to your phone fifteen
3:58
Speaker 1: dollars for a month, forty for three months, or one
3:59
Speaker 1: hundred free year, and it will help you with tips
4:03
Speaker 1: on how you're playing and tuning, and a whole bunch
4:05
Speaker 1: of stuff. I really like this crossover of practical skills
4:09
Speaker 1: and gameplay.
4:11
Speaker 2: Yes, the gamification of learning a musical instrument is a
4:15
Speaker 2: cool idea. Okay. The Spider Man video game and the
4:20
Speaker 2: Miles Morales offshoot from a few years back were both
4:23
Speaker 2: big hits, and later this year, gamers will get a
4:25
Speaker 2: chance to continue the story with Spider Man two. Now.
4:30
Speaker 2: In this game, you'll encounter Venom, though it will be
4:33
Speaker 2: Eddie Brock underneath Craven, the Hunter, the Lizard, and lots
4:38
Speaker 2: of other batties as you swoop your way toward victory.
4:44
Speaker 1: We I think my husband actually got really frustrated at
4:47
Speaker 1: the first Spider Man game.
4:49
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed it, but it was one of those games.
4:51
Speaker 2: I know, we're going over, we do that, but it's
4:55
Speaker 2: one of those games.
4:56
Speaker 1: Fault.
4:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of those games. It's like a big,
4:58
Speaker 2: open world game, and I love those for the first
5:02
Speaker 2: couple of hours, but they can often seem so big
5:06
Speaker 2: and so filled with stuff. That it becomes overwhelming and paradoxically,
5:12
Speaker 2: I'll put it down and never pick it up again.
5:16
Speaker 1: I've done that with a few games. All right, Next
5:21
Speaker 1: quick news item, This one will actually be quick. Captain America,
5:25
Speaker 1: the new movie coming out Captain America, I guess for,
5:28
Speaker 1: has a new title. Originally it was going to be
5:30
Speaker 1: called Captain America New World Order. They have now changed
5:33
Speaker 1: that to Captain America Brave New World, which I personally
5:37
Speaker 1: like better. And that's what it's still on track to
5:42
Speaker 1: be released May third, twenty twenty four. That's what I
5:44
Speaker 1: got to say about that.
5:46
Speaker 2: Okay, listeners, I'm going to explain to you why Ariel
5:49
Speaker 2: likes that better, even if she isn't consciously aware of it.
5:52
Speaker 2: It's because the phrase Brave New World comes from The Tempest.
5:56
Speaker 2: The line is, oh, brave new World to have such
5:59
Speaker 2: people in it. And in the Tempest there's a character
6:03
Speaker 2: of an aerial type spirit and its name is Ariel.
6:08
Speaker 2: And that's why Ariel likes that title more.
6:11
Speaker 1: I mean, I've also played Ariel in The Tempest. I also,
6:15
Speaker 1: I feel like it's at least right now, at least
6:20
Speaker 1: the way I'm feeling about the world right now, Brave
6:22
Speaker 1: New World sounds a little more uplifting.
6:25
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and after Secret Invasion, I think we're going
6:29
Speaker 2: to need a brave New World. Okay, yes, We've got
6:33
Speaker 2: a first look at the logo for the next Ghostbusters film.
6:37
Speaker 2: It has the familiar no Ghost symbol, but this time
6:40
Speaker 2: it's coded in ice. Sounds pretty cool to me. Maybe
6:45
Speaker 2: it's because the movie is scheduled to come out for
6:48
Speaker 2: this Christmas, which to me is crazy because it only
6:51
Speaker 2: just started shooting in March, so I'm really questioning whether
6:55
Speaker 2: they're going to make a Christmas debut for this anyway.
6:58
Speaker 2: The film has a working title Ghostbusters Firehouse, but that
7:02
Speaker 2: might change by the time the movie comes out.
7:05
Speaker 1: I'm I'm really curious if they are planning for Christmas,
7:08
Speaker 1: if they'll make it with the writer's strike.
7:09
Speaker 2: But we'll yeah, I ariel, like, I know we're blowing it.
7:15
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, guys, my fault again, my fault. But I
7:20
Speaker 2: when I saw that, I was like, this can't be right,
7:22
Speaker 2: and I googled. I'm like, when does when's the next
7:25
Speaker 2: Ghostbusters movie supposed to come out? And I kept coming
7:27
Speaker 2: back with December twentieth, twenty twenty three, and I'm like,
7:30
Speaker 2: that can't be right. It has to be twenty twenty four, right,
7:34
Speaker 2: but it kept coming back as twenty twenty three, and
7:36
Speaker 2: I'm like, is my computer broken? Because they only just
7:39
Speaker 2: started shooting that. There's just no.
7:41
Speaker 1: Way unless unless they started shooting it earlier and we
7:47
Speaker 1: just don't know, which is unlikely. But yeah, I yeah,
7:53
Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see it like there's about to be uh,
7:57
Speaker 1: there's we'll get it, okay to thirty seconds or less
8:04
Speaker 1: one hundred points if you can figure out all the
8:06
Speaker 1: various things I was going to say there. So the
8:09
Speaker 1: next story is, despite the writer's strike and the possible
8:13
Speaker 1: upcoming SAG after strike, we are getting Ahsoka still on
8:19
Speaker 1: schedule per se. It's set to come out August twenty third,
8:23
Speaker 1: And there's a new little clip that they've released begin
8:27
Speaker 1: It doesn't show too much, but it looks fun and yeah,
8:30
Speaker 1: that's thirty seconds.
8:33
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, here we go. While I personally don't get
8:37
Speaker 2: the appeal of the Transformers movies, despite the fact that
8:40
Speaker 2: I was an avid fan of the toys when I
8:42
Speaker 2: was a kid, I am at Midley in the minority.
8:45
Speaker 2: Variety reports that yesterday, which was Thursday, June eighth, for reference. Transformers.
8:50
Speaker 2: Rise of the Beasts picked up nearly nine million dollars
8:53
Speaker 2: in previews, which is pretty impressive. But the bots are
8:56
Speaker 2: about to go up against their toughest foe yet, Spider Man,
9:00
Speaker 2: the Spider Verse, and.
9:02
Speaker 1: Fine who yeah, fip flip Okay. I've heard good things
9:09
Speaker 1: about both movies. Surprisingly not surprising on Spider Man, surprising
9:13
Speaker 1: on Transformers. Uh. Next thing shocked. That musical that my
9:18
Speaker 1: friend is in. Uh that when it first came out,
9:22
Speaker 1: Jonathan was maybe a little upset for all the corn
9:25
Speaker 1: jokes is really popular. It got nine nominated for nine
9:30
Speaker 1: Tony Awards, and now it is getting a West End
9:33
Speaker 1: run in London next year. I there a bunch of
9:38
Speaker 1: people are saying it's like fun at the funniest show
9:41
Speaker 1: since original musical since Book of Mormon. I'm really surprised
9:45
Speaker 1: that it's getting a London tour because or London run
9:48
Speaker 1: because it's kind of rock country music, and I just
9:52
Speaker 1: didn't I'm so glad it's doing so well, but I
9:55
Speaker 1: wasn't sure how a country musical was gonna pick up
10:00
Speaker 1: right now.
10:00
Speaker 2: So well, well, London is in a country. Hey, yes,
10:08
Speaker 2: you all like country music. This one's from Algeria. All right,
10:12
Speaker 2: oh hey, In that Transformer's Rise of the Beasts movie
10:15
Speaker 2: that I mentioned earlier, there's an interesting easter egg of
10:18
Speaker 2: a crossover, so skip ahead. If you do not want spoilers,
10:22
Speaker 2: this is your one warning, Ariel, you might want to
10:24
Speaker 2: put your fingers in your ears. So in the Transformers movie,
10:28
Speaker 2: a character comes across a reference of a certain secret
10:32
Speaker 2: American military program called g I Joe. The filmmakers indicate
10:36
Speaker 2: they do hope to do a crossover of these two
10:38
Speaker 2: properties in the future, but they have no actual roadmap
10:41
Speaker 2: formed yet. It seems like they're just like, let's wing
10:44
Speaker 2: it now, you know, and spoiling is half the battle,
10:48
Speaker 2: all right.
10:48
Speaker 1: Are people back? Okay? Last thirty seconds or less. Jeremy
10:55
Speaker 1: Jordan is a actor and musical actor and gek actor.
10:59
Speaker 1: He played Win in the super Girl television series on
11:03
Speaker 1: the WV, and he was Jack in the filmed version
11:09
Speaker 1: of the stage play of Newsy's that Disney has out.
11:12
Speaker 2: Well.
11:13
Speaker 1: He was in Little Shop of Horrors as Seymour. I
11:18
Speaker 1: think last year or the year before, in the last
11:20
Speaker 1: few years, and now he is coming back for a
11:22
Speaker 1: limited run. If you're in New York or you can
11:24
Speaker 1: get to New York, or you are planning to go
11:26
Speaker 1: to New York, you can catch him July twenty fifth
11:29
Speaker 1: through September seventeenth. I wanted to see him in Little
11:34
Speaker 1: Shop of Horrors when I went up to New York
11:36
Speaker 1: last year and he was no longer there.
11:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was confused because I thought Jeremy Jordan was
11:43
Speaker 2: one of the green lanterns.
11:46
Speaker 1: That's hal Jordan, see, isn't it?
11:50
Speaker 2: Yes?
11:50
Speaker 1: You're right, okay, making me question question myself here.
11:56
Speaker 2: Listen, Ariel, we know that I have that thing where
11:59
Speaker 2: if two people have even remotely similar names, I will
12:03
Speaker 2: swap them.
12:05
Speaker 1: Listen, I do it too. I still have to pause
12:07
Speaker 1: every time I say peace Maker.
12:10
Speaker 2: While while for our listeners it may have literally been
12:13
Speaker 2: seconds since the last episode, for us it's been several days,
12:17
Speaker 2: and that means it's time to chat about stuff, what
12:20
Speaker 2: we've watched since the last time we recorded, And for me,
12:24
Speaker 2: I haven't really been watching much other than I watched
12:27
Speaker 2: a few more episodes of Muppets Mayhem. That's the series
12:31
Speaker 2: on Disney Plus that's following the Electric Mayhem. As they
12:36
Speaker 2: confound a music producer who is desperately trying to get
12:39
Speaker 2: them to record their first album rather than just perpetually
12:43
Speaker 2: being on tour, and I have to say I'm still
12:47
Speaker 2: loving it. It's interesting because the show the show will
12:52
Speaker 2: sometimes set up really big like cliffhangers, and then ignore
12:58
Speaker 2: them in the next episode apologetically, and it's both infuriating
13:03
Speaker 2: and hilarious at the same time. But I really, I
13:07
Speaker 2: truly feel like it has captured the chaotic and yet
13:12
Speaker 2: innocent kind of humor of the original Muppets run, but
13:18
Speaker 2: with updated jokes. The only note I would give to
13:22
Speaker 2: I mean, who am I? But the only note I
13:24
Speaker 2: would give is I feel that Doctor Teeth is I
13:29
Speaker 2: think his personality has been dialed up a notch too high,
13:33
Speaker 2: Like Doctor Teeth is always kind of this groovy character,
13:38
Speaker 2: but I feel like they punched it up a bit
13:42
Speaker 2: more for this series and it gets a little old
13:46
Speaker 2: for me. But every other character I have found endlessly
13:51
Speaker 2: entertaining and hilarious.
13:53
Speaker 1: That's awesome. It is on my list along with all
13:55
Speaker 1: the other things that I have not watched yet. I
13:59
Speaker 1: of course am still going through Ravening War because there's
14:01
Speaker 1: a new episode every week on Dropout, which I'm quite enjoying. Actually,
14:05
Speaker 1: I didn't the first season Crowd of Candy. I have
14:08
Speaker 1: said this before was not my favorite of their series
14:11
Speaker 1: or campaigns, but I'm really enjoying this prequel. I also
14:14
Speaker 1: watched the first episode of Fubar, which is that True
14:18
Speaker 1: Lies esque family man Arnold Schwarzenegger action TV show on Netflix,
14:25
Speaker 1: and that it was cute, it was fun. It was
14:30
Speaker 1: a little cheesy, but I really enjoyed it. I like
14:36
Speaker 1: True Lies. I like all of those kind of like
14:40
Speaker 1: fun action movies that we had back I guess it
14:44
Speaker 1: was the nineties or two thousands when that came out. Nineties.
14:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it, but man, there's one there are
14:50
Speaker 2: a couple of things about that movie that are not cool, but.
14:56
Speaker 1: Sure, sure, definitely, but like that genre of movie. Yeah,
15:01
Speaker 1: I quite enjoyed at the time, the.
15:03
Speaker 2: Fun sort of like there's a little bit of tongue
15:06
Speaker 2: in cheek but not to the point where it's an
15:07
Speaker 2: outright comedy, but it's like your action with comedic undertones.
15:11
Speaker 2: I love those too, Like, yes, a fun action film
15:15
Speaker 2: is great, Like that's I always feel like that's what
15:17
Speaker 2: the Expendables are trying to be, but they never get
15:22
Speaker 2: there for me, Like the Expendables don't quite reach that level,
15:24
Speaker 2: but I can tell that's what they're trying to do.
15:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, foo bar. It is a little cheesy at times,
15:31
Speaker 1: but it really hits that just like fun action. There's
15:35
Speaker 1: some language, there's some violence, there's some gore, but not
15:38
Speaker 1: too much. I just found it very enjoyable. It was
15:41
Speaker 1: like a light, fun action watch. So I'm looking forward.
15:46
Speaker 2: I'll have to check it out because like I've been
15:48
Speaker 2: craving something like that because a lot of the action
15:51
Speaker 2: that's out there, it's essentially all like the postborn identity
15:56
Speaker 2: style action right where everything gets way more let see
16:00
Speaker 2: how many bones we can break, kind of crunchy, and
16:04
Speaker 2: there's no shortage to that, like you have like the
16:06
Speaker 2: Jack Reacher stuff. You know, there's lots of different series
16:10
Speaker 2: and movies like the John Wick stuff where it all
16:12
Speaker 2: gets hyper violent and that becomes the hallmark of action.
16:17
Speaker 2: And I do kind of miss the more cheeky, silly,
16:23
Speaker 2: not outright comedy, but fun action movies.
16:27
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so this is a TV show, but if
16:30
Speaker 1: you if you like that, you'll enjoy it. Yeah. Like
16:32
Speaker 1: you said, some of the jokes are cheesy and some
16:34
Speaker 1: of there is there is some action. It's not like
16:36
Speaker 1: Game of Thrones level action and violence and gore. But
16:38
Speaker 1: you know there's a little bit of it. You've got
16:40
Speaker 1: to have steaks, so sure. So yeah, So that's that's
16:44
Speaker 1: what I've watched. It's been a busy week. I had
16:47
Speaker 1: an exceptionally busy last weekend and this week has been
16:51
Speaker 1: all ketch up.
16:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, ketchup, and I broke myself. So yeah, that literally
17:00
Speaker 2: has slowed me down.
17:02
Speaker 1: Yeah. Something that is not slowing down, though, is these
17:08
Speaker 1: entertainment unions. I say these the entertainment unions taking steps
17:14
Speaker 1: to better their work environment and residuals and pay. And
17:19
Speaker 1: we had talked about SAG after, which is that the
17:22
Speaker 1: actor union putting out a vote for a strike and
17:26
Speaker 1: that we didn't have the results for it yet, but
17:28
Speaker 1: now we do. They have ninety eight percent unanimously, not
17:32
Speaker 1: ninety eight percent, have voted yes for a strike if needed.
17:36
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean they're going to a strike. But if they
17:38
Speaker 1: can't get their if they can't demands, if they can't
17:43
Speaker 1: come to an agreement with the other bargaining party on
17:47
Speaker 1: the changes they want to their contract by June thirtieth,
17:50
Speaker 1: then it is likely they will call a strike. You know,
17:53
Speaker 1: I want, I wish the writers were already out of
17:57
Speaker 1: their strike, and I know the directors have a tentative deal.
18:00
Speaker 1: I hope everybody can come to agreements soon because I
18:04
Speaker 1: want folks to be able to make a living.
18:07
Speaker 2: I do too. I want it like that. To me,
18:11
Speaker 2: that all comes down to the studios, because yes, I
18:14
Speaker 2: feel like the requests that are being thrown in there,
18:18
Speaker 2: or demands, however you want to look at it, I
18:19
Speaker 2: said demands, but really it's more like it's a negotiation,
18:23
Speaker 2: and the things that the writers want and that the
18:25
Speaker 2: actors want are important. They are important so that they
18:30
Speaker 2: can actually not just work, but make a living. And
18:34
Speaker 2: as we have said many times that you know, while
18:36
Speaker 2: there is this iconic kind of fantasy of the Hollywood
18:41
Speaker 2: lifestyle where you're a jet setter and you're flying off
18:44
Speaker 2: to can and then you're vacationationing in Greece and all
18:47
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff, that's a tiny percentage of the
18:50
Speaker 2: people who are working in entertainment that most people are
18:54
Speaker 2: there there, you know, professionals. Some of them may be
18:57
Speaker 2: holding down a second job or maybe even a third
19:00
Speaker 2: job on top of it, because depending upon what they're doing,
19:05
Speaker 2: they may not be raking in the huge bucks and
19:08
Speaker 2: these negotiations are very important in getting those considerations arranged
19:14
Speaker 2: so that people aren't taken advantage of and they can
19:18
Speaker 2: make a living doing the thing they want to do.
19:20
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I support the strike. I've said it before,
19:23
Speaker 1: and it does come down to these production houses. Really,
19:28
Speaker 1: I guess what I should have said is I hope
19:29
Speaker 1: these production houses and the other bargaining parties that are
19:32
Speaker 1: not the unions agree to stuff because, like you know,
19:38
Speaker 1: I think we talked about IATSE is doing studies on
19:42
Speaker 1: how to use AI to benefit the industry, but we
19:45
Speaker 1: also need protections against using it. We've talked about for writers,
19:48
Speaker 1: for AI to write a script and then they have
19:50
Speaker 1: to edit it, you know. And for actors, you're like, well,
19:52
Speaker 1: how can AI replace an actor? And that's because you know,
19:55
Speaker 1: a studio might be able to gain permission if you're
19:59
Speaker 1: not careful with your contract, might be able to say
20:01
Speaker 1: we can use your your image in perpetuity for however
20:04
Speaker 1: we want. And that's not cool because that means they
20:07
Speaker 1: could put your face on anything anybody. Yeah, like they
20:11
Speaker 1: could they could AI your They could c GI your
20:14
Speaker 1: face on somebody else's body and use you in a
20:17
Speaker 1: movie you didn't.
20:17
Speaker 2: Agree to and synthesize your voice.
20:20
Speaker 1: And synthesize it. Yeah, so that's really shifty and I
20:24
Speaker 1: don't know how much that would actually happen, but like
20:26
Speaker 1: that is one of the like the worst case scenarios
20:29
Speaker 1: that people have been talking about with AI for the
20:31
Speaker 1: Actors Union. So yeah, just all around better, better minimum
20:36
Speaker 1: wage and residuals and stuff like that.
20:40
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, like when when Black Widow came out,
20:42
Speaker 2: we had the big story about how, you know, Scarlett
20:46
Speaker 2: Johansson was really upset because the her contract was predicated
20:55
Speaker 2: upon the idea of it being a theatrical release film
20:58
Speaker 2: and the fact that it went into streaming meant that
21:01
Speaker 2: it cut a huge amount of what should have been
21:04
Speaker 2: compensation to her out of the picture and she didn't
21:07
Speaker 2: have any say in it. And so it's incidents like that.
21:11
Speaker 2: It's those sort of precedent incidents that lead into the
21:16
Speaker 2: need for these negotiations so that there are there's an
21:20
Speaker 2: understanding between all parties about how things need to be handled,
21:25
Speaker 2: so that you don't have these outliers where someone ends
21:29
Speaker 2: up not getting what they are owed because of a
21:34
Speaker 2: change in approach that they had no say in. So, yeah,
21:39
Speaker 2: we've said it before. Like as Ariel mentioned, the vote
21:43
Speaker 2: doesn't mean that they're necessarily going to strike. It just
21:46
Speaker 2: means that they already have the authorization. They don't have
21:49
Speaker 2: to hold another vote if it comes down to that,
21:52
Speaker 2: which ends up in itself becoming a negotiation tool because
21:56
Speaker 2: the actors can say to the studios, we've already approved
21:59
Speaker 2: at so if we're not able to make an agreement,
22:03
Speaker 2: we already know where this is going to go. So
22:06
Speaker 2: that's that's a looming threat that can give more leverage
22:11
Speaker 2: to the actors as they negotiate and hopefully it all
22:14
Speaker 2: shakes out. I really want to see everybody get an
22:17
Speaker 2: agreement that they are happy with and to be able
22:21
Speaker 2: to move forward and you know, just figure out what
22:25
Speaker 2: does it mean to work in entertainment in this era?
22:30
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I agree. Like I said, I hope everybody
22:34
Speaker 1: is able to come to agreement and get back to
22:36
Speaker 1: work soon.
22:39
Speaker 2: You know.
22:40
Speaker 1: I think the hard thing for me is because I'm
22:41
Speaker 1: an actor and sometimes I get to peek behind the curtain.
22:47
Speaker 1: The things we talk about on this podcast are by
22:49
Speaker 1: and large stuff that you can go and look up
22:52
Speaker 1: on the internet and find the answers to. Right, we're
22:54
Speaker 1: not talking about any big secrets. But I always slightly wonder,
23:00
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm not saying anything I should never.
23:06
Speaker 2: I think you're fine, because I mean, like, we've certainly
23:09
Speaker 2: seen very high profile people in these various organizations and
23:16
Speaker 2: jobs come forward and talk about these things. And again,
23:20
Speaker 2: like you were saying, Ariel, it's not like we're we're
23:22
Speaker 2: not saying anything that's proprietary or secret. It's not like
23:27
Speaker 2: you're saying, oh, I know that out of these fifty
23:32
Speaker 2: requests we have, it's only these ten that they really
23:35
Speaker 2: care about, and if the other forty go unanswered, it'll
23:38
Speaker 2: still be okay. Like it's not like we're saying anything
23:40
Speaker 2: like that, So you know, all fifty gosh darn it,
23:44
Speaker 2: all fifty have to be yes. Check those boxes.
23:47
Speaker 1: Yes. Moving on, moving on to some I guess some
23:52
Speaker 1: funner maybe funner news, more fun news.
23:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, funner is a great not word.
23:58
Speaker 1: Yeah. I have this thing. I found this article talking
24:04
Speaker 1: about how Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon movie that's coming to
24:09
Speaker 1: Netflix is going to be in two parts. I was like, oh,
24:13
Speaker 1: maybe Zack Snyder's learning to edit down. That's not the case.
24:17
Speaker 2: It's exactly the opposite. Of that fact.
24:19
Speaker 1: Yes, So his script for Rebel Moon, according to Deadline
24:26
Speaker 1: in some other interviews, is one hundred and seventy two pages.
24:29
Speaker 1: That's a lot. Yeah, like three maybe over three hours
24:33
Speaker 1: of content all told. And when they said, hey, Zach,
24:38
Speaker 1: movies under two hours tend to do better on Netflix,
24:42
Speaker 1: he was like, well, I can't cut out that much,
24:44
Speaker 1: so how about we just make it two movies instead,
24:47
Speaker 1: with multiple versions of cuts. That's the part, like I
24:50
Speaker 1: get saying I've got this big, you know, epic that
24:53
Speaker 1: i want to tell, and so I'm happy to cut
24:55
Speaker 1: it into two parts, especially on Netflix where you could
24:57
Speaker 1: binge both parts, right, And like, as a consumer, I'd say, yes,
25:01
Speaker 1: if I see something's two hours, I'm more likely to
25:03
Speaker 1: watch two hours somethings than one four hour something because
25:09
Speaker 1: I know that I can stop in the middle and
25:10
Speaker 1: there's a good place for me to stop in the
25:12
Speaker 1: middle if I want, right. Yeah, but it's just the
25:18
Speaker 1: multiple cuts. Figure out what you want to tell and
25:20
Speaker 1: tell that story.
25:22
Speaker 2: Not Yeah. I think maybe he learned the wrong lesson
25:27
Speaker 2: with the whole released the Snyder cut thing, Like you
25:30
Speaker 2: don't you don't need to set out to do that
25:33
Speaker 2: from the beginning. So the what it boils down to
25:37
Speaker 2: is that Snyder's plan is to have each film have
25:42
Speaker 2: at least two cuts to it, where one would be
25:45
Speaker 2: the more generally accessible version of the movie and the
25:50
Speaker 2: other one would be the deeper dive version for people
25:55
Speaker 2: who want that kind of thing. And it's like, it's
25:58
Speaker 2: like if someone were to from the beginning create a
26:01
Speaker 2: director's cut version of the movie they were making, and
26:05
Speaker 2: technically both cuts would be director's cuts because they're overseeing
26:08
Speaker 2: the whole thing. It's just one is different from the other.
26:12
Speaker 2: And I don't know, Ariel, all of this just makes
26:15
Speaker 2: my head hurt.
26:17
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, same, and I say that I even understand. Look,
26:22
Speaker 1: it's an actor. When I get an audition script, it
26:24
Speaker 1: takes me. I spend so much time going what perspective
26:30
Speaker 1: is this person I'm playing, What are their goals? What
26:32
Speaker 1: perspective do they have? And there's Look, there's entire cyclopedias
26:36
Speaker 1: of like action words of like I'm trying to get
26:39
Speaker 1: this other person to do this, or I'm trying to
26:41
Speaker 1: do this to the other person. It is hard. Sometimes
26:45
Speaker 1: I'll have five or six different perspectives of a character
26:48
Speaker 1: that I get, and I struggle to cut down. But
26:51
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm only allowed to send two or three,
26:54
Speaker 1: sometimes only one, and I have to. So like, I
26:58
Speaker 1: get it. I get not being able to pick between
27:01
Speaker 1: all of your babies, but at the same time, you
27:03
Speaker 1: have to hold yourself accountable to Yeah, yeah, viewership.
27:07
Speaker 2: Don't shove that job on the rest of us. Come on,
27:12
Speaker 2: I don't want to have to. I don't want to
27:14
Speaker 2: have to decide which of your visions is the better one.
27:17
Speaker 2: That's your job, Zack Snyder. But I'm not gonna watch
27:21
Speaker 2: it anyway because I don't like Zack Snyder's work. So
27:23
Speaker 2: it's fine.
27:25
Speaker 1: I've liked some of his stuff, that is, but he's
27:28
Speaker 1: also created the movie that I dislike the most.
27:31
Speaker 2: So maybe maybe like I'd like it more if I
27:37
Speaker 2: went back. And I've heard that the Snyder cut of
27:39
Speaker 2: Justice League is like in every way superior to the
27:42
Speaker 2: movie came out.
27:43
Speaker 1: I don't agree with that.
27:45
Speaker 2: Okay, a lot of people that I follow have said
27:48
Speaker 2: that sort of thing. I have not seen it, so
27:50
Speaker 2: I can't comment. And I don't think I've ever watched
27:52
Speaker 2: Justice League all the way through. I've seen I've scrubbed
27:56
Speaker 2: through it. I don't think I've actually watched it all
27:58
Speaker 2: the way through because I just never like the DC
28:01
Speaker 2: movies that much in the Snyder era, but I could
28:05
Speaker 2: never get past the feeling that he was like smashing
28:09
Speaker 2: action figures together and saying fight, fight, fight, and that
28:13
Speaker 2: was the movie.
28:14
Speaker 1: I yeah. So, like, I understand why people say that
28:20
Speaker 1: the Snyder versus the Snyder cut is better than the
28:22
Speaker 1: Josswhedon cut. I think that both cuts have talked about
28:26
Speaker 1: this before. Both cuts made some improvements. But I also
28:31
Speaker 1: think both cuts, like the inverse of that is, both
28:35
Speaker 1: cuts were lacking something the other thing the other version
28:38
Speaker 1: really hit well gotcha? So like in the Snyder cut,
28:42
Speaker 1: because I did sit through all what four six hours of.
28:44
Speaker 2: That I think three days technically, but yes, like I.
28:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are some character moments that he cuts out
28:55
Speaker 1: that I thought were integral to the relationships of the
29:00
Speaker 1: superheroes to make them the superheroes that I grew up
29:03
Speaker 1: with that I see all the time, and were like
29:06
Speaker 1: moments of connection between what was happening on the screen
29:09
Speaker 1: and me that Snyder took out and I missed those,
29:13
Speaker 1: and I like he took out some ones that I
29:15
Speaker 1: really loved. Also, he put in uh, like, I don't
29:21
Speaker 1: need to watch a minute and a half of women
29:23
Speaker 1: singing as slow mo Jason Momoa runs into the waves
29:27
Speaker 1: and they sniff his shirt creepily. I you could make
29:32
Speaker 1: that a five second like this a five second scene. Also,
29:36
Speaker 1: it's like I think that scene mostly is like in
29:41
Speaker 1: both cuts, but the music has changed, and in the
29:45
Speaker 1: Joss Whedon version it's like this high action call to
29:48
Speaker 1: action song, and in the uh in the Snyder version,
29:52
Speaker 1: it's like this h Norris love ballad, all most creepy
30:01
Speaker 1: love ballad, And it's just I don't think it was
30:04
Speaker 1: a better choice.
30:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, without having seen it, and I feel like, I mean,
30:08
Speaker 2: I probably commented on it too much already, like typical
30:12
Speaker 2: typical geek nerd reaction, and by that I mean like
30:16
Speaker 2: the stereotypical geek nerd who has an opinion on something
30:18
Speaker 2: even if they haven't actually read it, seen it, whatever.
30:23
Speaker 2: So I apologize to all of you, including Ariel, for that.
30:27
Speaker 2: It's it's it just boils down to there are only
30:32
Speaker 2: a couple of movies that Zack Snyder has made that
30:34
Speaker 2: I have found entertaining, and the ones that I saw
30:39
Speaker 2: that I did not like, I didn't like them so
30:42
Speaker 2: much that it has turned me off of watching other
30:46
Speaker 2: Zack Snyder movies. So totally, that's kind of where I'm
30:49
Speaker 2: coming down, Like, it doesn't mean that any of the
30:51
Speaker 2: movies are bad, even the ones I don't like. It
30:53
Speaker 2: doesn't mean that those movies are bad, just that I
30:57
Speaker 2: had a visceral negative reaction and did not enjoy it,
31:01
Speaker 2: and that has since colored my perception moving forward. And
31:06
Speaker 2: so I want to I'm trying to own this stuff
31:10
Speaker 2: because I am so tired of people categorically saying something
31:15
Speaker 2: is really good or really bad, rather than I really
31:18
Speaker 2: enjoyed it or I didn't really like this.
31:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I get it, but I also get it.
31:26
Speaker 2: Well. I have one thing I wanted to insert that's
31:28
Speaker 2: not in our show notes that I forgot to add,
31:31
Speaker 2: but I thought we could just mention really briefly. It's
31:34
Speaker 2: something that's actually in mainstream news. So I'm sure that
31:36
Speaker 2: all of our listeners already know. But Tom Holland has
31:40
Speaker 2: said he's going to take a year off of acting.
31:43
Speaker 2: After he was in what was the Piece? He was
31:47
Speaker 2: in the crowded room. He was in the crowded room,
31:49
Speaker 2: and he said that the experience was taxing to the
31:54
Speaker 2: point where he needs to take time off. So he's
31:56
Speaker 2: going to take essentially a year hiatus from acting, which
32:01
Speaker 2: I'm sure thrills Sony to no end and possibly also
32:07
Speaker 2: mcu disney. But but hey, you know what, I say,
32:11
Speaker 2: go for it if you if you've got that agency
32:14
Speaker 2: to be able to do that, more power to you.
32:17
Speaker 2: I would rather you take a year off and recharge
32:20
Speaker 2: and come back with a new perspective and a new
32:26
Speaker 2: enthusiasm than to slog through it and suffer over time.
32:31
Speaker 1: Yeah. I had actually missed that news item, but I'm
32:35
Speaker 1: glad that he's doing it. Mental health is real important,
32:37
Speaker 1: and sometimes you connect with things that are real hard,
32:42
Speaker 1: you know, because maybe you're playing a character that's had
32:45
Speaker 1: a similar circumstance to something that you've had to overcome
32:47
Speaker 1: in your real life, and it can be very taxing.
32:50
Speaker 1: I'm not I haven't watched a crowded Room. I'm not
32:51
Speaker 1: super familiar with it. I'm not saying that's the case,
32:53
Speaker 1: but I think it's good for actors to be aware
32:56
Speaker 1: of their mental health and take breaks when they need it.
32:59
Speaker 2: Agreed. Yeah, I don't know if it's the was the
33:02
Speaker 2: content of the work, because I also haven't seen the
33:04
Speaker 2: credit room, so I don't know if it was the content,
33:07
Speaker 2: or if it was the shooting conditions, or if he
33:10
Speaker 2: was paired with people that he just found difficult to
33:14
Speaker 2: work with. I don't know any of the details of
33:16
Speaker 2: what it was that was so challenging for him. I mean,
33:21
Speaker 2: I do know that the actress who is hired to
33:24
Speaker 2: play his mother in the piece is like only nine
33:26
Speaker 2: years older than he is. But that's, you know, that's Hollywood,
33:30
Speaker 2: good old Hollywood.
33:32
Speaker 1: I have things that I'd like to say on that,
33:34
Speaker 1: but I can't, so I won't. Hey, yeah, age doesn't.
33:43
Speaker 1: What I will say is your actual age doesn't doesn't
33:47
Speaker 1: often matter unless you're a minor on camera. It's the
33:52
Speaker 1: age that you look in, the age that you can play,
33:55
Speaker 1: or the age that the audience will buy. Yes, And
33:59
Speaker 1: there are a plethora of reasons why you might cast
34:02
Speaker 1: somebody with like disparate ages to the character they're playing.
34:08
Speaker 1: They are a plethora of reasons, and some of them
34:11
Speaker 1: are really good.
34:12
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, we could if we were to
34:15
Speaker 2: sit here and enumerate all the films and TV series
34:19
Speaker 2: where you had actresses who were either barely older or
34:25
Speaker 2: in some cases even younger than the co star they
34:29
Speaker 2: were hired to play. As you know, mom to, we
34:32
Speaker 2: would be here all day and we would just get
34:35
Speaker 2: more and more upset. So instead, let's talk about how
34:40
Speaker 2: Miyazaki has, you know, a final film coming up before
34:45
Speaker 2: Miyazaki retires, and they're taking a very interesting approach to
34:50
Speaker 2: how they're promoting it.
34:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, I are you a fan of Miyazaki?
34:55
Speaker 2: I am I Actually so I haven't seen all of
34:58
Speaker 2: Miyazaki's work, but all the work that I have seen
35:01
Speaker 2: I have found to be fascinating.
35:04
Speaker 1: Same, same, the interesting approach to these thinking. So, Miyazaki
35:08
Speaker 1: went into retirement and then came out of retirement and
35:10
Speaker 1: apparently is going back into retirement again. But before his
35:15
Speaker 1: final movie comes out, which it's going to come out soon,
35:20
Speaker 1: they are not putting out any trailers or TV commercials
35:24
Speaker 1: or newspaper ads or marketing for it. And he says
35:27
Speaker 1: this is because, like he feels, this is what moviegoers want.
35:31
Speaker 1: They don't want the movie to be spoiled. And if
35:33
Speaker 1: you put out three trailers, you know, Johnathan and I
35:35
Speaker 1: have talked about this, then you know what the movie
35:37
Speaker 1: is going to be. All the best parts are in
35:39
Speaker 1: the trailer, and that happens more often than it ought to.
35:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it happens when you bring in a marketing
35:49
Speaker 2: company that ends up screening your film and then picking
35:52
Speaker 2: out the parts that they think are going to really
35:55
Speaker 2: appeal to audiences. And sometimes that means taking something that
36:00
Speaker 2: really should have been withheld so that the audience in
36:03
Speaker 2: the theater got to experience it for the first time
36:06
Speaker 2: as they watched the story instead of on a trailer.
36:09
Speaker 2: See also Darth Maul and the double ended Lightsaber or
36:13
Speaker 2: the ant Man sequence where the toy train derails, because
36:18
Speaker 2: both of those were moments that I think I would
36:21
Speaker 2: have totally delighted in had I first seen them in
36:26
Speaker 2: the theater, but instead I was just waiting for them
36:28
Speaker 2: to happen because I had already seen them in the trailer.
36:30
Speaker 2: So I fully respect this decision me too.
36:34
Speaker 1: You know. It's one of the things I liked about
36:36
Speaker 1: the D and D movie is the jokes that were like, oh,
36:38
Speaker 1: they ruined this unfunny joke in the trailer. It was
36:40
Speaker 1: different in the movie. It was just different. It had
36:42
Speaker 1: a different really well done Yeah, I'm fond of this.
36:49
Speaker 1: I'm I'm honestly not familiar with How Do You Live,
36:54
Speaker 1: which is the movie that's coming out. I'm not familiar
36:57
Speaker 1: with the story. It's based off of a nineteen thirty
36:59
Speaker 1: seven not novel by Jen Zibro Yoshino. I've probably not
37:05
Speaker 1: pronounced that correctly.
37:08
Speaker 2: From whynders. From what I understand, it's very very loosely
37:12
Speaker 2: based off of it. And honestly, I think the only
37:15
Speaker 2: reason this approach works is because we're talking about Miyazaki.
37:19
Speaker 2: We're talking about auteur who has a filmography of work
37:25
Speaker 2: where it's he has a proven vision and approach to
37:28
Speaker 2: storytelling where he can do this. Obviously, you could not
37:32
Speaker 2: do this with every movie because if all you had
37:35
Speaker 2: to go on was a title of a film and
37:39
Speaker 2: you had no real knowledge of the people behind it
37:42
Speaker 2: or what the story was, it just wouldn't work. So
37:45
Speaker 2: Miyazaki has the cred where he can do this kind
37:49
Speaker 2: of thing, but a lot of other filmmakers wouldn't necessarily
37:52
Speaker 2: have that same sort of ability, maybe like someone like
37:56
Speaker 2: Wes Anderson or something like that, Yes, but not not
38:00
Speaker 2: most people.
38:01
Speaker 1: That being said, having articles out about the fact that
38:03
Speaker 1: they're not putting out promotional promotional materials is promotional material. Also,
38:10
Speaker 1: it comes out July fourteenth in Japan. I don't know
38:13
Speaker 1: when it comes to the US, but there is a
38:16
Speaker 1: poster for it, so you can get a shiny sneak
38:18
Speaker 1: peak on that poster.
38:21
Speaker 2: Yes, we talked about a tiny sneak peek in our
38:24
Speaker 2: previous episode when we talked about the nice opening thank you,
38:28
Speaker 2: the opening title sequence for season two of Good Omens,
38:32
Speaker 2: And now we have a full trailer and the thing
38:36
Speaker 2: that Ariel said she wanted in that little sneak peak
38:40
Speaker 2: turns out she must have wished on the correct star.
38:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, they heard me and they answered my request. It
38:49
Speaker 1: looks like season two in a decent at least a
38:54
Speaker 1: decent chunk. You know, there's so much that went on
38:56
Speaker 1: in season one of Good Omens, so many plot lines
38:59
Speaker 1: that they had to pull together. But at least one
39:00
Speaker 1: of the major plot lines for season two is Gabriel
39:03
Speaker 1: kind of coming to Earth and not remembering stuff, and
39:06
Speaker 1: then zerfl and Crowley trying to have to Crawley Crowley.
39:12
Speaker 2: Curley Crawley, but yeah.
39:15
Speaker 1: Having to like fix that figure stuff out.
39:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, find out like why has he come to Earth?
39:21
Speaker 2: Why can he not remember what he was? You know,
39:24
Speaker 2: what happened? And uh, protecting him from the various powers
39:31
Speaker 2: both above and below that seemed to be out to
39:35
Speaker 2: get him for one reason or another. So it's kind
39:37
Speaker 2: of like a mystery, which is great. And I don't know,
39:42
Speaker 2: I thought the trailer was delightful.
39:45
Speaker 1: I agree. I'm very excited for season two. I had
39:50
Speaker 1: a like, I like, I have a lack of words
39:57
Speaker 1: for how much I'm excited for season two. And I'm
39:59
Speaker 1: also so excited because we're gonna get a lot more
40:01
Speaker 1: like time jumping seeing them through the ages, the main characters,
40:05
Speaker 1: so that'll be fun too.
40:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's they're obviously toying with the stuff that
40:12
Speaker 2: fans have gone gaga over, specifically the semi romantic nature
40:19
Speaker 2: of the relationship between a Zerofl and Crowley, where there's
40:24
Speaker 2: this sort of winking acknowledgment of that in part of
40:29
Speaker 2: the trailer. I do worry, you know, that it's perhaps
40:35
Speaker 2: towing the line where they could be baiting as opposed
40:39
Speaker 2: to actually saying something significant or sufficient. But you know,
40:45
Speaker 2: with Neil Gaiman's involvement, I'm not too worried because I
40:49
Speaker 2: have a feeling that he would want to not go
40:52
Speaker 2: down that route in the first place. But yeah, It's
40:56
Speaker 2: one of those things where there's been a lot of
40:58
Speaker 2: entertainment that has sort of void with that and not
41:01
Speaker 2: followed through, and that can feel like a rug pull.
41:04
Speaker 2: So hopefully that's not going to be the case here.
41:06
Speaker 2: But everything in this trailer looked really fun and John
41:10
Speaker 2: ham looks like he's just going to have a blast
41:13
Speaker 2: in this season.
41:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I really enjoyed John hamm and comedic roles.
41:20
Speaker 1: It's interesting because I understand the importance of what you
41:24
Speaker 1: were saying about having a romance between the characters, but
41:26
Speaker 1: I also feel like and they were definitely toying with it,
41:29
Speaker 1: and I understand the importance of follow through in that
41:33
Speaker 1: for many, many, many, many many many people.
41:37
Speaker 2: Right.
41:37
Speaker 1: I also really like stories where there's like a deep,
41:43
Speaker 1: like a deep familial best friend love, because I feel
41:47
Speaker 1: like that also is not shown enough between men in media. Yes,
41:52
Speaker 1: So like, yeah, I'm fine either way because I think
41:56
Speaker 1: both of those aspects are very important to see.
42:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think well, and I think.
42:01
Speaker 1: It's probably an unpopular opinion.
42:03
Speaker 2: But the issue I have is that that if they're
42:08
Speaker 2: toying with one depiction and then ultimately they say, oh,
42:13
Speaker 2: it's this this platonic brotherly or or masculine love for
42:19
Speaker 2: one another, but it's not a romantic or sexual love
42:21
Speaker 2: for one another. The it feels like they're trying to
42:25
Speaker 2: play it both ways, and that's where people get upset,
42:28
Speaker 2: right where there's this this hint of what you see
42:31
Speaker 2: on screen, but that it feels like it's again baiting
42:35
Speaker 2: it's there. This was a big discussion back in the
42:39
Speaker 2: Sherlock era, right between Sherlock and Watson. In the Benedict
42:44
Speaker 2: Cumberbatch one that was a big issue that people had
42:48
Speaker 2: was that it seemed like they were trying to have
42:50
Speaker 2: it both ways, and it can. It can come across
42:54
Speaker 2: as a bit cynical and an attempt to get an audience.
42:59
Speaker 2: So my hope is just that they avoid that. However
43:02
Speaker 2: they depict it, they do so in a way where
43:04
Speaker 2: it comes across as genuine and it doesn't feel like
43:08
Speaker 2: they were trying to do a bait and switch. As
43:10
Speaker 2: long as it's like that that, I'm cool. Whether it's
43:13
Speaker 2: platonic or romantic, it just needs to be genuine.
43:16
Speaker 1: I one thousand percent agree, And like I said, I'm
43:20
Speaker 1: totally fine however it comes out as long as it's genuine,
43:24
Speaker 1: because I really enjoyed season one, and I'm expecting to
43:28
Speaker 1: enjoy season two. We can see how it'll play out
43:29
Speaker 1: because it premieres on July twenty eighth, so it's just
43:32
Speaker 1: around the corner.
43:33
Speaker 2: Looking forward to it.
43:36
Speaker 1: Next we have to talk about We also got like
43:39
Speaker 1: a brief teaser for the Venture brother movie that was
43:44
Speaker 1: coming out a few weeks ago.
43:46
Speaker 2: Venture Yeah, it's coming out soon. It'll be out on
43:50
Speaker 2: actual physical media, which hey, yay if you're into that,
43:54
Speaker 2: like I am, so yeah, the full Venture Brothers trailer,
43:59
Speaker 2: you get a little bit more of a hint about
44:02
Speaker 2: what's happening. Hank ends up going off on his own
44:06
Speaker 2: for some reason, so that seems to be part of
44:09
Speaker 2: the driving element of the plot. The monarch is obviously
44:14
Speaker 2: up to the monarch's attempted nefarious dealings. The monarch usually
44:20
Speaker 2: ends up being his own worst enemy, and Missus doctor
44:25
Speaker 2: girlfriend is off on her own adventures for some reason.
44:30
Speaker 2: Like you, you don't actually get a lot of feel
44:34
Speaker 2: for what the story is. It's more like giving you
44:38
Speaker 2: a sense of the tone and the kind of sense
44:40
Speaker 2: of humor of the film, which I think is fine
44:43
Speaker 2: if you're a fan of Venture Brothers, though chances are
44:46
Speaker 2: you're already on board, and if you're not a fan
44:48
Speaker 2: of Venture Brothers, this is just going to be very
44:50
Speaker 2: confusing to you.
44:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but yeah, more Venture Brother goodness for a
44:56
Speaker 1: Venture Brother fans. We're also getting more what your goodness
44:59
Speaker 1: for which fans? The Final or the We've got a
45:03
Speaker 1: new trailer for season three of The Witcher. It looks
45:07
Speaker 1: like the Witcher.
45:08
Speaker 2: Yes, it does. It looks a lot like the Witcher.
45:12
Speaker 1: Yeah. I like, I'm surprised how much like the Witcher
45:15
Speaker 1: it looks like.
45:16
Speaker 2: I was really you know, I was sitting there thinking
45:18
Speaker 2: that we were finally going to get a Dune season
45:21
Speaker 2: of the Witcher. But no, it's just more of the Witcher.
45:24
Speaker 1: I was expecting, like the the like my Little Pony
45:28
Speaker 1: level of Diablo in the Oh.
45:31
Speaker 2: The Witcher is magic.
45:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yes, I mean it looks good. It looks
45:36
Speaker 1: like maybe the storylines because Jonathan, you haven't watched it, correct,
45:40
Speaker 1: I have not.
45:41
Speaker 2: Uh.
45:42
Speaker 1: Season one and two I enjoyed, but they very much
45:45
Speaker 1: had storylines all over the place, and because I didn't
45:48
Speaker 1: already know the lore, it was hard to follow. It
45:49
Speaker 1: seems like they might be tying things together more in
45:52
Speaker 1: this season.
45:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, I will watch it. This is also Henry Cavill's
45:59
Speaker 2: final season as the Witcher. We know that, like Liam Hemsworth,
46:03
Speaker 2: is going to take over the part after this season.
46:05
Speaker 2: You know, there was all this talk about this when
46:07
Speaker 2: it was happening, and there was discussion that perhaps Henry
46:10
Speaker 2: Cavill was leaving mainly so that he could pursue playing
46:14
Speaker 2: Superman in the DC universe, which obviously that has changed dramatically,
46:18
Speaker 2: which you know, people are still sad about, including me,
46:21
Speaker 2: because I think Henry Cavill made a great Superman. It's
46:24
Speaker 2: just that he never got a chance to be in
46:26
Speaker 2: a great Superman movie in my opinion. But I agree.
46:30
Speaker 2: But the the other thing is that the other rumor
46:34
Speaker 2: that was going around was that Henry Cavill kind of
46:36
Speaker 2: wanted out because there was this perception that the show
46:42
Speaker 2: was just creating storylines that aren't in the original material,
46:46
Speaker 2: whether that's the books or the games, and that it
46:50
Speaker 2: was becoming more and more of a chore to do
46:54
Speaker 2: the show because it wasn't the vision that Henry Cavill had.
46:58
Speaker 2: You know, he clearly has a very deep and abiding
47:02
Speaker 2: love of the source material, and if in fact that
47:07
Speaker 2: is part of the issue. I could see that being
47:10
Speaker 2: a reason for him deciding that's time to walk away,
47:12
Speaker 2: because if the thing you love is changing and no
47:15
Speaker 2: longer being the thing that you fell in love with,
47:18
Speaker 2: it can be torture to stick with that for like
47:22
Speaker 2: eight or nine seasons until you finally quit the Georgia Renaissance.
47:25
Speaker 2: I'm sorry I got off on a tangent there.
47:30
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm gonna go on a brief tangent too. We
47:34
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of time, so we're probably going
47:36
Speaker 1: to speed up on some of these items. But I
47:39
Speaker 1: watched the King of the Hill Renaissance Festival episode last night,
47:42
Speaker 1: and it hurt. It hurt, It hurt me so much
47:46
Speaker 1: that like my brain was oozing out my ear and
47:48
Speaker 1: I had to multiple times have Tony pause the episode
47:54
Speaker 1: of this dumb sitcom TV show from twelve years ago
47:58
Speaker 1: so I could say, this makes no sense sense. They
48:00
Speaker 1: wouldn't do this because this and this and this and
48:02
Speaker 1: this and that doesn't what the I can't like. I screamed,
48:06
Speaker 1: I frustrated, screamed through most of it. So yeah, I
48:10
Speaker 1: don't think there's any problem going away.
48:13
Speaker 2: One.
48:13
Speaker 1: I don't think any problem with tangenting. Two. I don't
48:16
Speaker 1: think there's any problem with going away from the source material.
48:19
Speaker 1: But if you don't enjoy that, there's also no problem
48:21
Speaker 1: in saying, hey, I think it's time for me to
48:23
Speaker 1: step back.
48:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, and some scars never heal. Next up, we're gonna
48:28
Speaker 2: talk about a first look of a scene from Twisted
48:30
Speaker 2: Metal where Anthony Mackie's character John Doe is in an
48:36
Speaker 2: altercation with sweet Tooth, the psychotic clown who drives an
48:40
Speaker 2: ice cream truck in the Twisted Metal franchise. They're fighting
48:43
Speaker 2: in a casino. It's just a cute little moment between
48:47
Speaker 2: the two and you can see the interaction between the characters.
48:51
Speaker 2: Sweet Tooth is voiced by Will Arnett. It is clearly
48:53
Speaker 2: not will Arnette physically playing the character, but.
48:57
Speaker 1: It was is the the body actor, I think, Yeah.
49:01
Speaker 2: And it was a it was a fun, goofy fight scene.
49:07
Speaker 2: I don't know that it hit for me totally, but
49:11
Speaker 2: I could see where they were going with it, and
49:13
Speaker 2: I thought, this is a funny idea. I don't know
49:17
Speaker 2: that one lands, but it's enough for me to want
49:21
Speaker 2: to check it out.
49:22
Speaker 1: Yeah. Sorry, Samoa Joe, not Joe sma.
49:25
Speaker 2: Oh, Samoa Joe. Yeah, former Well, actually, I guess he's
49:28
Speaker 2: a current a wrestler. He's been a wrestler for years
49:31
Speaker 2: and years and years.
49:32
Speaker 1: He's the body actor. I'm always impressed when you get
49:35
Speaker 1: a good body actor and voice actor who really connect,
49:39
Speaker 1: because that's that's hard to get everything down to such
49:44
Speaker 1: a fine hair science of making both sets of emotions
49:49
Speaker 1: and physicality matchup. And it looks really good in this.
49:54
Speaker 2: I see also David Prowson and James Earl Jones aka
49:57
Speaker 2: Darth Vader.
49:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, or any buddy in Doom Patrol who doesn't show
50:01
Speaker 1: their face, usually a robot man and a negative man.
50:06
Speaker 1: I agree, it looked kind of cute and kind of fun.
50:09
Speaker 1: I honestly felt the scene was a little long they
50:11
Speaker 1: could have edited down some, but way more entertaining than
50:16
Speaker 1: I anticipated it being.
50:18
Speaker 2: So I'm a twisted metal yeah.
50:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm also intrigued. I'm also very intrigued by
50:24
Speaker 1: Justice League War Justice League War World. I almost said
50:28
Speaker 1: warg World. That's very different, maybe yeah, because we got
50:32
Speaker 1: a trailer for that. It's an animated Justice League movie
50:35
Speaker 1: that spans kind of Western time and film noir and
50:40
Speaker 1: maybe post apocalyptic and maybe medieval.
50:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are transported to a world where they are
50:48
Speaker 2: put into these different scenarios where they have to battle,
50:51
Speaker 2: so it's essentially like a gladiatorial world. It makes me
50:54
Speaker 2: think a lot of the for Ragnarok film like it.
50:59
Speaker 2: It reminds me of that, Like it's a world where
51:03
Speaker 2: these various heroes are being forced to be in these
51:07
Speaker 2: scenarios and fight. But it looks good like it is.
51:12
Speaker 2: And it's also fun to see characters up here in
51:16
Speaker 2: different genres, like seeing Wonder Woman dressed up as a
51:19
Speaker 2: Western you know, Gunslinger was pretty cool.
51:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, really cool. I expect a lot of cosplay
51:26
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, I not. I like a lot of
51:31
Speaker 1: the Justice League animated movies. Some of them are so dumb,
51:34
Speaker 1: but I enjoy a lot of them, and I think
51:37
Speaker 1: this is one that I will very much enjoy. Something
51:40
Speaker 1: else that almost I almost didn't add to our list, Yeah,
51:45
Speaker 1: because I saw an article about it and then my
51:48
Speaker 1: husband sent me the trailer and I'm like, well, now
51:51
Speaker 1: I have to watch it, and now it's on our list.
51:54
Speaker 1: Is the trailer for Sympathy for the Devil, which is
51:57
Speaker 1: a new Nick Cage movie.
52:00
Speaker 2: Yeah. I actually saw this trailer separate from making the
52:04
Speaker 2: notes for this and I had the same sort of thought,
52:07
Speaker 2: Like I was like, should I put this on our
52:09
Speaker 2: lineup or does it not belong? It's bonkers. It's it's like,
52:14
Speaker 2: you know, I made the joke earlier in the thirty
52:17
Speaker 2: seconds or less about It's hard to tell whether, like
52:21
Speaker 2: Nick Cage is obviously the survivor, because if you look
52:23
Speaker 2: at his filmography, you're like, how could anyone still make
52:26
Speaker 2: movies after making that one? This one feels like one
52:30
Speaker 2: of those bonkers films where he's playing a some malevolent
52:36
Speaker 2: character who's forcing this this this otherwise like average dad
52:41
Speaker 2: guy who's played by the same dude who played one
52:44
Speaker 2: of the characters in Suicide Squad. He was the.
52:46
Speaker 1: The is it is Joel Kinneman.
52:52
Speaker 2: Yes, Joel Kinneman. Yeah, he was like the minder, like
52:57
Speaker 2: he was the guy who had to look after the
52:59
Speaker 2: suicide Squad. He was flat character. That's it. Reflect I
53:02
Speaker 2: don't remember names, so but anyway, he's like playing like
53:06
Speaker 2: a dad and he ends up being hijacked by Nicholas
53:10
Speaker 2: Cage's character. And like, even when I was looking at
53:13
Speaker 2: the synopsis, these characters weren't given names. They were just
53:16
Speaker 2: known as like the driver and the passenger, that kind
53:18
Speaker 2: of thing. But Nick Cage comes across as he's unhinged
53:25
Speaker 2: Nick Cage for this movie, like you wonder which Nick
53:28
Speaker 2: Cage you're gonna get, that's the one you're getting for
53:29
Speaker 2: Sympathy for the Devil.
53:31
Speaker 1: It's so two things really interesting about it. One At first,
53:34
Speaker 1: I thought it was just a longer version of the
53:36
Speaker 1: BMW films Beat the Devil with Gary Oldman and Denny
53:39
Speaker 1: Treo and James Brown, where the main character chauffer's people
53:45
Speaker 1: around in a BMW and in this case he's chauffeuring
53:47
Speaker 1: around Gary, Gary James Brown. I don't remember anyhow. Check
53:52
Speaker 1: it out Beat the Devil. It's a short film from
53:54
Speaker 1: a long time ago. But I thought it was maybe
53:59
Speaker 1: a version of that. I don't think it is. But
54:03
Speaker 1: the interesting thing for me is it feels it is
54:06
Speaker 1: unhinged Knit Cage, but there's a level of menace or
54:11
Speaker 1: sincerity to it that really feels to me like he's
54:15
Speaker 1: leveled up in that kind of a role. Like usually
54:17
Speaker 1: he's kind of wacky and he's so into it that
54:19
Speaker 1: it's ridiculously over top the top, and this just felt like,
54:26
Speaker 1: I don't know, there was just a groundedness to it
54:30
Speaker 1: that I thought was really refreshing in this trailer.
54:34
Speaker 2: I mean, the trailer definitely made me wonder what the
54:37
Speaker 2: heck is going on? Like what is what is the
54:41
Speaker 2: thing that's done this? Like for a while I was wondering,
54:44
Speaker 2: oh is this like is this title literal? Does it
54:48
Speaker 2: turn out the Nicholas Cage is in fact the Devil?
54:51
Speaker 2: And then it becomes like a like it becomes like
54:53
Speaker 2: some sort of fausty end thing, and well, by the
54:55
Speaker 2: time the trailer was over, I'm like, gosh, I don't know.
54:58
Speaker 2: I mean, it's possible, but it's also possible that that
55:00
Speaker 2: it's figurative and not literal. I don't know, and it
55:06
Speaker 2: it is intriguing, Like I'm sure at the at the
55:09
Speaker 2: end of the day, I'm sure it will be entertaining,
55:12
Speaker 2: which to me is enough.
55:14
Speaker 1: Right.
55:14
Speaker 2: If it's entertaining, then that's great. If it's if it
55:17
Speaker 2: makes you think, that's a bonus. But I don't know
55:20
Speaker 2: that this is gonna do that. But I think it's
55:22
Speaker 2: gonna entertain you.
55:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder if the point of the movie is
55:26
Speaker 1: to wonder whether he's just a crazy like a psychopath
55:30
Speaker 1: or the devil, But Yeah, it looks entertaining to me.
55:34
Speaker 1: Like I said, I it's it's a level or tone
55:40
Speaker 1: of acting. Uh, like a layer of acting is in
55:44
Speaker 1: there that I'm not used to seeing Nick Cage do.
55:45
Speaker 1: So I'm super interested to watch it for that. Uh.
55:48
Speaker 1: You also got a full trailer for Poor Things.
55:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, Wes Wes Wes Anderson's Bride of Frankenstein movie. Yes,
56:00
Speaker 2: except it's not Wes Anderson, but it looks like it
56:03
Speaker 2: could be.
56:05
Speaker 1: The trailer plays exactly like a Wes Anderson movie.
56:09
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well yeah, complete with like unrealistic settings and buildings
56:14
Speaker 2: and that kind of stuff. It feels like a Wes
56:16
Speaker 2: Anderson movie and with like characters who are really quirky.
56:21
Speaker 2: But it's from the same director who created The Lobster, Yeah.
56:26
Speaker 1: Which I never watched, but I do think I'm gonna
56:30
Speaker 1: watch Poor Things. Emma Stone looks really like I like
56:38
Speaker 1: the character to development She's done in the trailer for
56:41
Speaker 1: her character who as one of the Frankenstein doctor who
56:48
Speaker 1: who brought her about said something like her her mind
56:51
Speaker 1: and body are not in sync, and she plays it
56:53
Speaker 1: so well in the train.
56:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the music they paired in the trailer is
56:58
Speaker 2: very unearthly and a little unsettling while also being whimsical.
57:05
Speaker 2: So it does have this kind of like there's a
57:08
Speaker 2: mixture of fairy tale whimsy and a little bit of like,
57:12
Speaker 2: not just a little bit, there's some disturbing kind of
57:15
Speaker 2: imagery and character design stuff going on too, and it's
57:19
Speaker 2: the marriage of that where it you know, it makes
57:22
Speaker 2: me think of early tim Burton. Not stylistically, it's not
57:26
Speaker 2: stylistically exactly the same, but like early tim Burton, you
57:29
Speaker 2: had this director who had a very particular vision, really
57:33
Speaker 2: genuinely loved unusual characters and would make stories to have
57:38
Speaker 2: those characters play them out.
57:41
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and this one, I don't know. It seems
57:45
Speaker 1: like it could have a happy ending.
57:49
Speaker 2: It could. I mean, we already know that if you die,
57:52
Speaker 2: you can be brought back as long as that doctor's
57:55
Speaker 2: still around.
57:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, like she it could have a very sad like
58:00
Speaker 1: I've I've learned so many things about myself and this world,
58:07
Speaker 1: like about societal norms and whether they are important or not,
58:13
Speaker 1: and in this world view doesn't align with my view.
58:16
Speaker 1: So it could be a very depressing end to a movie,
58:18
Speaker 1: but it could be a very like self realization. I've
58:22
Speaker 1: become a better person and I'm creating change in the world.
58:25
Speaker 1: Kind of a movie, I guess we'll have to see.
58:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, one thing that you can see right now is
58:30
Speaker 2: that the Summer Game Fest is underway. I'm just gonna
58:34
Speaker 2: mention this quickly because we are running out of time.
58:36
Speaker 2: But Summer Game Fest is by Jeff Keeley, who has
58:40
Speaker 2: been involved in video games for years and years and years.
58:44
Speaker 2: And there's no E three this year. E three was
58:47
Speaker 2: canceled again. So this is kind of like a fan
58:50
Speaker 2: facing event where all these different companies are coming forward
58:56
Speaker 2: to talk about games that are coming out over the
58:58
Speaker 2: next few months and yond, and they've already launched the event.
59:03
Speaker 2: It started like the big kickoff event, happened last night
59:07
Speaker 2: on Thursday, and it's continuing throughout the weekend and into
59:11
Speaker 2: next week. So if you're into video games, make sure
59:14
Speaker 2: you follow the Summer Game Fest because there's lots and
59:17
Speaker 2: lots and lots of announcements and trailers and discussions about
59:22
Speaker 2: the stuff that you're going to get to play in
59:25
Speaker 2: the not too distant future.
59:27
Speaker 1: And if that makes you thirsty, you can drink your
59:29
Speaker 1: gaming instead. Because Coca Cola has come out with a
59:34
Speaker 1: ultimate Coca Cola flavored Coca Cola flavor subtitled plus XP.
59:42
Speaker 1: It's supposed to take you canna ask.
59:44
Speaker 2: I don't know because I wasn't able to open this
59:47
Speaker 2: news item, so I was like, I can't wait to
59:50
Speaker 2: find out what the heck this is.
59:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've partnered with League of Legends to make like
59:55
Speaker 1: it's supposed to taste like leveling up. What does that
1:00:02
Speaker 1: taste like? You ask? Well, one person says it's gonna
1:00:06
Speaker 1: be spoilery if you don't want to know, so give
1:00:10
Speaker 1: me like ten seconds and then come back. One person
1:00:12
Speaker 1: says it tastes like a quickly fading citrusy peach flavor.
1:00:17
Speaker 2: So I guess you drink that and then you say
1:00:19
Speaker 2: ding and then you move on with your day. Yeah.
1:00:22
Speaker 1: I have liked some of the limited addition flavors. I
1:00:25
Speaker 1: liked dream World, I liked Starlight, I didn't care for Move,
1:00:30
Speaker 1: but I when they said it tastes.
1:00:35
Speaker 2: It, Yeah, for a moment, my brain shut down, Aeriel,
1:00:38
Speaker 2: because you were like talking about these things. I'm like,
1:00:41
Speaker 2: I have never heard of any of this, and I
1:00:43
Speaker 2: feel so disconnected with the world around me.
1:00:47
Speaker 1: So I have talked, We have talked about it. So
1:00:50
Speaker 1: Coca Cola came out with like a Starlight flavor which
1:00:53
Speaker 1: was supposed to taste like outer space and kind of
1:00:55
Speaker 1: tasted like to some people's smores, into some people raspberry
1:00:58
Speaker 1: and too me somewhere in between, and I really liked it.
1:01:01
Speaker 1: And then dream World was kind of like if he
1:01:03
Speaker 1: mixed Coca Cola with like a raspberry lacroix, which was
1:01:08
Speaker 1: not bad. It was more fresh, and the Move was
1:01:12
Speaker 1: kind of There were a couple other ones, and I
1:01:14
Speaker 1: don't remember them all, but I think Move is the
1:01:15
Speaker 1: most recent one, and it's a little too I don't know,
1:01:21
Speaker 1: coconut marshmallows. I don't know. The flavor doesn't quite hit
1:01:26
Speaker 1: me as well as the other ones. I don't like
1:01:27
Speaker 1: it as much, but I'm excited to try this now
1:01:32
Speaker 1: that I know. It doesn't taste like a sweaty keyboard,
1:01:35
Speaker 1: because leveling up in Lega of Legends meant that, like
1:01:38
Speaker 1: I was, just my hands were very sweaty and I
1:01:40
Speaker 1: was hitting a lot of keys on my keyboard.
1:01:43
Speaker 2: So yeah, fair enough, well, and that wraps up our episode.
1:01:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you have thoughts on any of the things
1:01:55
Speaker 1: we've talked about today, you should reach out and tell
1:01:57
Speaker 1: us we love hearing from you. Then how can they
1:02:00
Speaker 1: do that?
1:02:01
Speaker 2: Well, first, you're gonna go out and you're gonna buy
1:02:04
Speaker 2: yourself a bottle of Seltzer water. And then you're gonna
1:02:08
Speaker 2: go to the local farmer's market and you're going to
1:02:11
Speaker 2: walk down the fruit aisle until you get to the cherries,
1:02:15
Speaker 2: and you're gonna see one single cherry that is like
1:02:19
Speaker 2: the ultimate example of cherry. Like you would think when
1:02:24
Speaker 2: you think of the word cherry, this is what you see.
1:02:26
Speaker 2: And you just buy that one cherry and you bring
1:02:29
Speaker 2: it home and you introduce the cherry to the bottle
1:02:32
Speaker 2: of Seltzer water and buy that. I mean, you physically
1:02:35
Speaker 2: bring the two close to each other and then introduce
1:02:37
Speaker 2: one to the other cherry. This is seltzer water. Seltzer water,
1:02:40
Speaker 2: this is cherry. You let things kind of develop from there.
1:02:43
Speaker 2: Check in on them every now and then, but you know,
1:02:45
Speaker 2: don't crowd them. They have to develop their relationship on
1:02:48
Speaker 2: their own. And three weeks from that day, the Seltzer
1:02:52
Speaker 2: water will be at the right point. The cherry will
1:02:55
Speaker 2: just be gone. It'll be amazing, no like rotted cherry.
1:03:00
Speaker 2: It'll just be it'll be gone. And the Seltzer water
1:03:02
Speaker 2: will have absorbed just enough of the cheery essence to
1:03:06
Speaker 2: now be the proper drink for you to chug in
1:03:09
Speaker 2: one go, or it will not work and you chug
1:03:13
Speaker 2: the whole thing and then you belch out your question
1:03:17
Speaker 2: and I will show up around the corner and answer
1:03:19
Speaker 2: it for you.
1:03:22
Speaker 1: And if you don't like belching, or you're afraid that
1:03:24
Speaker 1: you might vomit and save belchin, I'm sorry. I even
1:03:26
