- 17:53Speaker 1: which Marvel character made his comic book debut in The
- 17:56Speaker 1: Incredible Hulk Number one eighty.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Wolverine and Your Big Bang Question. Which movie was the

- 18:10Speaker 2: a PG thirteen rating. Released in nineteen eighty four and
- 18:15Speaker 2: starring Patrick Swayzee as a Calumet High School wolverine.
- 18:20Speaker 3: It was red Don.
- 18:26Speaker 2: The first film to receive a PG thirteen rating from
- 18:31Speaker 2: the MPAA was The Flamingo Kid, but red Don ended
- 18:36Speaker 2: up being released first, and that's why you've never heard
- 18:40Speaker 2: of the Flamingo Kid.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Yeah, Flamingo Kid received it. That's when they started doing
- 18:47Speaker 1: the ratings and read Don and it were basically at
- 18:50Speaker 1: the same time, but red Don came out first. It
- 18:54Speaker 1: received a PG thirteen rating, and so it's often pointed
- 18:58Speaker 1: at as the first PG THI movie just because of
- 19:01Speaker 1: its release. That was the first one to be actually released,
- 19:04Speaker 1: but the one, the first one to be named was
- 19:06Speaker 1: The Famingo Kid. So just be careful on the wording
- 19:10Speaker 1: of the question whenever you hear it, yeah.
- 19:13Speaker 2: Because they might do a gotcha, But I mean, I
- 19:16Speaker 2: can expect you to.
- 19:17Speaker 3: Know that something can go.
- 19:18Speaker 2: Kid.

- 19:25Speaker 1: don't need to remember that. Pretty little interesting piece of

- 19:38Speaker 1: Red Dawn not well received critically when it came out,
- 19:42Speaker 1: but did very well at the box office. And you know,
- 19:47Speaker 1: I think they remade it to twenty twelve twenty twelve,
- 19:50Speaker 1: which I don't think people liked quite as much as
- 19:52Speaker 1: the original. No, the original was was. I mean fun
- 19:56Speaker 1: for what it is, it's definitely an eighties movie. Yeah,
- 20:01Speaker 1: it's like USA, USA. Yeah, but Wolverines is what the
- 20:07Speaker 1: mascot for the high school was, and that's why they
- 20:10Speaker 1: they banded together to fight off the Commis of Russia
- 20:14Speaker 1: the Soviet Union, I guess yeah, and they would yell
- 20:18Speaker 1: that Wolverine.
- 20:21Speaker 3: I haven't seen.
- 20:21Speaker 1: It might be worth one watch.
- 20:23Speaker 2: I'd be willing to watch it once.

- 20:35Speaker 1: of their house and trying to just take their guns
- 20:38Speaker 1: from them. Yeah, and fighting back against them, and powers
