  Speaker 1: Hey, everybody. Welcome to the large and new Drunk Collider podcast,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the podcast that's all about the geeky things happening in
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: the world around us and how very excited we are
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: about them. I'm Ariel Caston and with me is always
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: is the fantastic Jonathan Strickland.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: And we're not just excited about them, we're thankful for them.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: We are thankful for them. You're a little bit early, Jonathan.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Well, because we're not recording. I mean, it's the last
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: episode before Thanksgiving. We're not recording after Thanksgiving. I'm going
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: to get that out of the way. At the very top,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: we're gonna take next Friday off for the holiday. We're
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: both gonna be, you know, kind of in that post
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: turkey stupor that where we don't really want to talk
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: about geeky things. We just want to nap or an
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Ariel's case, into a house full of guests.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, I Thanksgiving is the big thing that we do
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: every year in my household, and this year we have
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: twenty people on the day of. But we're gonna have
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: house guests all the way through Sunday next week, all
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the way through Sunday, and that means We're also going
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: to have people over our house all the way through Sunday.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I can't even imagine having enough space to put food
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: for twenty people like that, to me is insane.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: We have this giant sectional couch in our living room.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: It takes up an entire wall. It didn't when we
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: bought it, but when we moved in this place, our
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: living rooms a bit smaller. That moves into Tony's office.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Tony's office moves into our basement. Our living room and
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: dining room are connected, so that becomes the giant table
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: for everybody to sit at. We move our end tables
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and coffee tables around the edge of the room so
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: that becomes where we put like appetizers and things, and
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: then the actual buffet of food goes into the entryway.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: We put hot plates on a folding table out there,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: and then people grab their plates off the table go
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: get food. We usually play the Benny Hill theme song
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: because throughout the years there has been a varying amount
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: of space for people to get around, and it's usually
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: a bit of a bonker's time.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: So yeah, So if you were wondering what Michael Bay's
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: next Transformers movie is, it's Ariel's Place, which transforms from
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: a tranquil home into a crazy feeding frenzy.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Michael Bay, if you're listening, I am up for this.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: We can totally do a Thanksgiving themed Transformers at Home
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: cozy movie. It's good, It'll be great, It'll be great.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sure it's going to be fantastic. And I
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: have never attended one of Ariel's Thanksgiving not because it
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: wasn't invited.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, you're always invited, you know that.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I mean there was only that one, like five year
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: stretch where we just weren't talking to each other because
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: you know, I sold her a horse, but I delivered
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: a mule. It was just one of those things.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Ye yeah, you know. And no, I was about to
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: make a really bad joke, but I'm I'm going to
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: edit myself.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: I mean I made that up. Well, I didn't make
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: it up. I stole it from Fiddler on the Roof.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: But yeah, like.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Mules and donkeys and most animals, it.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Probably wouldn't have even been a thing. You've just been like, hey,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: you're gonna have to spot me the difference, because because
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a horse goes for more than a mule does. Uh, yeah,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: we're I'll be spending Thanksgiving with my parents, and it's
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: just going to be my folks and my partner and
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I and Timbolt will also be there. Upon request, we
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: were going to put him up in daycare, but my
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: parents said no, bring him over. We haven't seen him
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: in a while, and their dogs will be in daycare,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: so that Timblet doesn't like start World War three in
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: their living room. But yeah, so we'll be heading over there.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: But that means we're going to take a break, which
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I think everybody who observes Thanksgiving they should take that
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: time to be thank full and rested, hopefully not not
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: wade into the madness that is Black Friday if they
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: can avoid it. I mean, I understand deals, but Black
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Friday is just to me, that's just a pit of
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: chaos that I do not want to dip my toe into.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Well, I the month leading up to Thanksgiving, there's always
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a bit of prep in my house. What do we
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: still need? What like? What do we need to replace
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: from previous years, like warming trace that had been broken
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: and Black Friday deals have been going on this entire month,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: so there's really no need to go out the day
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: after Thanksgiving. Let those people stay at home and rest.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: We saw that start like years ago where we got
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Cyber Monday, right the Monday following Black Friday, and even
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: in the olden days before the Internet, there would be
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: stores that would start running specials leading up to Black Friday.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: There's one item I have asked my partner for one
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: thing for Christmas which she might be able to get
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: for pretty cheap on Black Friday, which, if you're curious,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: is just a new pair of earbuds that are like
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: over the ear, like the little hooks after so well,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: that would also work, but I was thinking maybe like
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: in ear earbuds, but they have like the over the
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: ear like hook because my my ear canals are pretty tiny,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: so they have a habit of giving birth to earbuds
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: at inopportune moments. And I'm gonna have to go into
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: the office more next year, which means which means taking Marta,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: which is our public transportation system here in Atlanta, And
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I just have this irrational fear of having earbuds in
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: my ears as I'm about to get on a train
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: or bus and then one of the earbuds pops out.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: At that Grogan pulls you onto the tracks and laughs
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: maniacally as it becomes a super villain.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's also a possibility that I had entertained.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: But I know what my nightmare will be tonight. Yeah,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: So I asked her if she would get me a
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: pair of earbuds that have a hook on it, because
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't want to. I have a nice
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: pair of Bluetooth headphones, but they're bulky, like, I don't
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: want to wear those on public transportation. It's a little
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: too much.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's a there's a there's a nice middle
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: ground that you could do, which is order for pickup
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: at a store and repay and that way you're online.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: It's not really taking I hope not anybody's time. I
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: hope all that's all automated and then they can pull
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: it the next day when you go to pick it up.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Well, the nice thing is I'm not the one who
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: has to do it, so I don't really care how
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: she does it.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: No, I know, and I don't.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: I don't want her to have to go out on
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Black Friday, though. I just if we can find a
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: deal where it's like, oh, look, that's kind of what
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: I wanted. It's twelve bucks, Like I don't need a
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: fancy pair either. I want to be clear. It's just
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna my commute is gonna be at least two
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: and a half hours each day.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, well, one, that's ridiculous. We won't necessarily
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: get into that here but or right now unless you
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: really want to. But like, it should be sales Saturday,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: not Black Friday, at least at least because like, I've
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: had friends who have done Black Friday deals and then
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: gone into retail and had to work Black Friday, and
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: they're like, I feel bad I ever did this, And
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I know there was actually a big push this year
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: for people not to shop on Black Friday.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: In wait, yeah, I've only ever done it maybe twice
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: in my entire life. And I didn't feel good in
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: either instance. I felt like I was and I mean
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: I felt like it because it was true. I felt
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: like I was part of the problem. So but yeah,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: I any of y'all out there, you retail warriors, if
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: you're working Black Friday, just know we love you, we
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: see you, we appreciate you, and we wish you a
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: safe work day.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Same now, I will say my mom used to do grocery.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: She used to be a cashier at a grocery and
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: she loved the holidays because everybody was tended to be
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: in a better mood and talkative, and you get to
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: talk to people about what they had for their plans.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: But that's that's different too.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sad, No, it's that's not what you get on
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Black Friday. No, not on Black Friday. You get that.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: You remember that scene in Brave Heart where the two
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: armies are rushing at each other as fast as they can. Yeah,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: but let's put that aside. You crafted the question this week,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: which is somewhat holiday thief, although my answer is not.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a bit of a mouthful. So, because Thanksgiving
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: is full of cooking and oftentimes creativity, for better or worse,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about recipes. You all know by
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: now that I love cooking and bacon baking more than cooking,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: like actual baking, not waking bacon.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: But not four twenty just blaze it.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but actual baking, like great British style. So what
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: is one of your favorite recipes? It doesn't have to
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: you said, it doesn't have to be holiday themed.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, Well, my favorite holiday themed one, I'll just go
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: ahead and say is my Mom's squash cast role, which
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: is phenomenal, and she is making it for this Most
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: of our Thanksgiving meal we have ordered so to so
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: just to take the pressure off of having to cook,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: you know, And so we're going to be picking that
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: up from a restaurant here in Atlanta. But Mom is
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: gonna supplement the food that we get with her famous
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: squash castle. Famous in my mind, I've often said that
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: if we're celebrating my birthday, she doesn't need to make
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: a cake or get a cake or anything. Just make
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: a squash castle, put a candle in it, and I'm happy.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: It's It's no dessert food. It is savory, but it's
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: just so comforting. It's it's I associate it with holiday
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: because we would often have as one of our sides.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: But for my own personal favorite recipes, there's one that
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Ariel reminded me of because were you talking to a
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: friend of the show, say Lee about.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: This, I was, I was at one of your birthday gatherings.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so shee must have revealed to Ariel that she
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: had discovered the joy of banana and mayo sandwiches from
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: me and to some of y'all out there, that might
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: sound weird a banana and mayonnaise sandwich. But in the
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: seventies when times were tough, sometimes the food you could
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: afford were things like fresh fruit, mayonnaise, and bread. And
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: so this is not just a me thing. This was
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: like a especially in the South, kind of like an
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: affordable food option. And I remember as a kid being introduced.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Now there's some caveats. The mayonnaise has to be Duke's mayo.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: None of that miracle whip stuff, which I don't even
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: count as maynags.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Can't be miracle whip, can't be Helmans. Not that Helmans
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: is a bad mayo, don't get me wrong. It's just
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Dukes has the right level of tanginess to counterbalance the
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: sweetness from the banana. So you get the tanginess from
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: the mayonnaise, you get the sweetness from the banana, and
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: the bread just is there to hold everything together and
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: make sure they get all comfy. There's your weird recipe.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: If we're talking about something I like to make. This
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: isn't weird. It's just it's one of those things that
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: I think is for a long time was unknown in
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: the States, but people are more aware of it now,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: and unfortunately, it's something that aerial can't have, which is
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: shak shuka tomato and egg based recipe where you cook
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: a tomato sauce till it gets super thick so that
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: you can scrape the bottom of the pan with a
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: spoon and it'll still whole. You poach some eggs in it,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: and then you can serve it up. And there are
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: lots of different versions. The one I tend to do
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: is actually use this more Italian seasonings than North African seasonings.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: North Africa is really the region where it's it's mostly known.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: And I like those versions too, Don't get me wrong,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: it's just the version I make tends to be more
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Italian in style. But those are my answers.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Gotcha for me? My favorite weird recipe, and it is
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: a holiday one. Here's the thing, I don't think it's
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: that weird when our friend brought it to Thanksgiving, and
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: when he did, it was considered weird. I have since
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: seen other people who know about it, and it's something
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: you can find online, but the majority of people I
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: know haven't tried it and don't know what it is.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: And maybe it's like a northern versus Southern thing. I
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: don't know, it's pineapple stuff or pineapple castrole, where you
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: take pineapple and cheddar cheese and you bake it together
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: with a little bit of flour and a little bit
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: of salt and a little bit of sugar, and you
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: put ritz crackers on top and you bake that and
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: it makes like a pineapple cheddar castrole.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: God, this sounds like something straight out of the Midwest.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: It's so good. It is so good. In fact, I
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: have taken that and I've turned it into many cheddar
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: pineapple muffins before, which is not as good as the
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: pineapple stuff, And everybody's like, don't like, don't judge it
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: before you try it. Just try it. It's really good.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: And there are a lot of Midwestern solads that I'm
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: not even gonna bother to try. But this pineapple stuff
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: is chef's kiss.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Okay, well you heard it here, folks. I mean, like,
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: it doesn't It's not the weirdest thing I've ever heard about,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: to be sure, but I can certainly say I never
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: would have thought of it. Yeah, but then I've also
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: I also was unfamiliar with things like like the some
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: regions where they'll put like slices of cheese on apple pie,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: and I get it like cheese apples. Like, that's kind
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: of like you get that with cheeseboards sometimes, right, I understand,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: but I had never really seen that done before. Yeah,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: that was new to me.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I also like, and this isn't super weird, it's just
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: not a lot of people do it. Putting balsamic or
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: honey onto your vanilla ice cream.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, that I've that I have done before.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I've also dipped my toe figuratively speaking, not literally because
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: that'd be gross, but in like ice creams that have
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: savory elements, not a truly savory ice cream. I've never
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: had an ice cream that was not sweet at all,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: but I've done. I mean I talked about the pickle
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: the pickle milkshake I had at Epcot, which was a mistake.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Actually I didn't hate it, I just did the more
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I drank of it, the less good I felt. So
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I think I think I left like a fifth of
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: it undrunk.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: You want just like a tiny bit, you don't you
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: want like a shot worth of pickle shake. You don't
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: want a whole.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Shake with Yeah, they gave me instead a mason jar
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: filled with pickled milkshake. But I like, I've had a
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: rosemary olive oil ice cream before and that was quite good.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Where you would get those notes at the end.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a sorbet that I want to make, So
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: I make this long. My husband makes the main dishes
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving. I make dessert and then some tertiary. So
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I usually make like three or four desserts. I do
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: a punch, I make homemade cranberry sauce, and then I
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: make homemade butters. I make like a vanilla cinnamon, and
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: I make like a rosemary roasted garlic butter to put
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: on like rolls and things like that. And our friends
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: do they do the supplementing. They bring in anything else
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: that we're missing. Where was I going with this?
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: But I make a long list of desserts that I'm
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: considering making. I think my list was like thirty different desserts,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: and I break it into like pies, cakes and trifles, fruit,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: non fruity other and one of my others. And this
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: recipe has been on my list forever and maybe I
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: need to make it and share it with you. It's
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: a concord grape black black pepper and rosemary sorbet.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, I would totally mess that up. Oh oh yeah, man,
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: I love have to try that.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: And I saw jam grapes at Whole Paycheck the other
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: day and I was like, I could make it. Jam
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: grapes and concord grapes are not the same, yeah, but
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: they're similar.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: It's like cut cotton candy grapes. Like, hey, would you
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: like to go to sugar shock?
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love cotton candy grapes. I would not
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: want to turn that into a storbet. But my husband,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: probably just for logistical reasons, was like, don't do that
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving. I would I would not consider that one.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: So I took it off my list. But I will
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: make it and I will share it with you. Now'll
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: have to try a peanut butter and mayo sandwich because.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: You mean a banana and mayo sandwich.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a banana and mayo sandwich. Because I do like sweet,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: like sweet and savory together. I will do a peanut
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: butter and jelly and bacon, which is where I think
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: the peanut butter in my brain came from.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Well, well, you can also do peanut butter and banana,
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: which is you know, that's what Elvis loved, right, So
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: like you can do one of those. Honestly, what I
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: would suggest for anyone who is curious about it is,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: first of all, you got to get Duke's mayo. I
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: cannot stress this enough. It has to be dukes. But
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: get yourself some Dukes mayo. Like cut like do like
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: a half sandwich. Like take one piece of bread, cut
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: it in half. Take take a banana, like half a banana,
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: slice it up, Put a little bit of mayo on
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: either side of the bread. Put the slices of banana
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: in there. That way, you only have a little half sandwich.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: You take a bite if it's not to your liking,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: like it might be one of those things where you
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: take a bite and you don't know if you like
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: it or not yet, and then you have to take
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: another bite and maybe another Like to this day, my
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: wife doesn't she doesn't say if she likes boiled peanuts.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: She just says she can't stop eating them, but she
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: doesn't know if she likes them or not.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: So like boiled peanuts, but not out of a can.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, I'm talking no. If you're gonna
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: get boiled peanuts, you got to go up to North Georgia. Yeah,
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: it's ideal if you're heading northeast toward the Carolinas and
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: the roadside stand has a sign that says boiled peanuts
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: where it's spelled b O I L T and then
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: P dash nuts. And then it should be in a
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: big like maybe like an old disused oil can and
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: just sitting them over an open flame. And and there
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: needs to be enough salt in that sucker to make
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the dead sea go. That's a bit much. And then
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: you can get yourself some boiled peanuts anyway. But yeah,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: it may be one of those things where you take
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: a couple of bites and you can decide whether or
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: not it's working for you or it's not. And if
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: it's not, that's totally cool. Like it is. It is
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: a weird sensation, I will admit, like it's you know,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: it's it gets a little it's a little gooey, you know,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: depending on how ripe your banana is. But I do
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: still like them. And I introduced our friend Shaye to them,
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: and it quickly became like an obsession for her.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, wow. Well there you go. If you guys
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: have your own favorite Thanksgiving recipes or weird recipes, or
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: if you try a banana and Mayo sandwich and you
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: like it, let us know. We'll tell you how to
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: reach out at the end of the show if you
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: don't already know. And along, I'm gonna move us along, Jonathan.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry cat you do it. But I wanted
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: to say thanks to os Killer on Discord for chiming
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: in on what they would like to see as a
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: TV or film turned into a musical. The suggestions were Deadpool,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: which I think is great VSG That'll star Galactica, and
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Friday the thirteenth and shark Nato else said Sharknado? Who
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: else said no? Was it? I don't remember anyhow.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Good suggestions though.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so those were the suggestions from listeners. Thank
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: you so much. I can see all of those immediately
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: as musical. So those are great choices.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, like yeah, because like Friday the thirteenth,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: you could do and even depending on how you wanted
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: to do it, Like if you wanted to do a
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: Friday the thirteenth that was trying to actually be scary,
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: that's one thing. But my first instinct is to do
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: like Evil Dead the musical, where that's a very over
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: the top comedic musical. It's splatter house, but it's a
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: comedic musical. That's where I think Friday the thirteenth would
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: really shine.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm I'm trying to find it. Now, give
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: me just a second.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: All right, Ariel's she is referencing our research department, which
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: is also Aeriel. So she's looking I can see it.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: I see lights flashing on her face, meaning that she's
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: looking at different computer screens.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I am it's it's like it's like watching that War
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: of the World's with ice Cube or.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Icy Yes, yes, yes, where he just sits at a
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: desk for like ninety percent of the film. Yeah, that
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: was the Amazon Prime one I recall.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Okay, Sharknado came on Instagram from a Bucks thirteen. So yes,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: thank you guys for reaching out and telling us what
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: you'd love to see his musicals. I wanted to make
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: sure that we got their their do creative props for that.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, gotta get their flowers. Well, let's let's talk
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: about stuff what we have watched since the last time.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be a lot of familiar names because we're
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: watching more of the stuff that we had started. Well
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: in some cases with Ariel, like weeks ago, because she's
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: still got her task Master list in front of her.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: I mean to be fair, I am on Taskmaster Series one,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: and then all I have to do is watch all
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: of the battles of the Champions and the New Years specials,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: and then I can go to kids.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: You got to see the series that had the dude
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: who was featured in that commercial for Walmart or not?
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: What was it? Wasn't Tesco's Waitrose the Waitros commercial license you?
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Joe Wilkerson, he was a delight. When you
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: get to Lake, I think, I don't remember what series
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: it starts, but the further back you go, the shorter
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: the series are. So they started with five episodes and
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: then they went to eight, and then now they're at
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: ten episodes a series. So he only got five episodes,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: but I'm I'm delighting in it. One of my friends
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: wore me that series one has the actors get mad
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: at each other, and they do or the comedians slash actors.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: But the one who gets the maddest that's like his step. Yeah,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: and so like you just have to remember that and
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: you have to watch, like when they cut away to
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: like the wide shots, he is laughing with everybody else?
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: So is that the same one where Greg at one
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: point takes one of them aside and it's like, why
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: are you doing why are you talking like this?
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: No, but well, I don't know. I'm only in I've
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: only seen two episodes of series one so far. Greg
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: does that. He does that like not always, but occasionally
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: it's he's done it more than once.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Uh those are I always find those very fun and
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: like the audience always is in on it too. So
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: all right, so, task master, what else have you been watching?
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: I watched the first episode of mighty nine, which is
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: the new series by Critical the new cartoon series by
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Critical Role. It is more. There are three episodes out
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: right now, but my the episodes are longer. So the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: first one was fifty minutes, and my watch party decided
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: it was too late to watch a second. I'm really
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: sad about that. In the first episode, they introduce three
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: of the main characters, primarily, and they're telling it in
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: a different order than they did the actual play, so
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: they're making it they're starting with like a session zero
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: where everybody meets, and they're making it more canonical. But
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: they didn't introduce my favorite character that I think is
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: the next episode, so it's very hard for me not
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: to watch ahead.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Who is your favorite character? Jester Love Jester is my
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: favorite character.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, She's a She's a goofy, young teefling girl who's
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: really into mischief, oftentimes inappropriate, but it's she plays it
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: so well.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: A cleric who, the joke is in critical role that
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: she would never cast healing spells like she was. She
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: was like, which kind of makes me think of the
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: McElroy's too, because Daddy McElroy was kind of like that too.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: You played a cleric who famously hardly ever cast any
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: healing spells, but you just.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: Had bad luck with spells in general.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: I actually saw an interview as one of those games
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: where they're asking like trivia questions of the cast to
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: see if they could remember, you know, details, and one
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: of them was how many times in the whole campaign
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: did Jester cast cure wounds? And the answer was much, much,
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: much higher than anyone anticipated. No one was, No one
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: got close. But it is somewhat of a silly reputation
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: for her character is that she's like a cleric who
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: just doesn't really see the need to cast cure wounds.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I mean she's also strong, and there are lots of
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: other cool skills and you've got limited spell slots.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I got to you gotta make sure you
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: deserve some energy for more sending messages.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I really enjoyed episode one of mighty nine. It
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: is much more serious than episode one of Fox Makina.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: I know mighty nine has a lot of humor in it.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: The story is a little like can be a little
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: bit more serious at times, but I really enjoyed it.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: I found out this week that there's a ce Sue too.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: There was a movie movie called se Sue about I
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: think a finished farmer who fought Nazis, and there's a
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: second one out and I didn't know it existed until yesterday.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: It just came out. I haven't watched that yet, but
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: I just wanted to mention that because we haven't mentioned
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: it Inertia.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Did you watch the first one.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Part of it? I need to go back and watch it.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: I just didn't have time to finish it.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: It's super violent, but.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, I have a stick around my car that
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: says ce Sue. To be fair, I got it in
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Michigan visiting my grandmother because Sisu is the finish word
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: for like grit. It's approximately, it's not. There's not a
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: direct translation steadfast, hardiness and grit. And then I'm continuing
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: up with Pluribus, which is the Vince Gilligan sci fi
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: show that we vaguely spoilered last week.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: No, I removed all the spoilers.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Okay, I like a spoiler warning at the time.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: No, no, I took it out. I edited to be
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: clear I was the one spoiling it. But I went
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: through and edited out. The discussion ended up being about
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: thirty percent as long as it was when our original recording.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: So you watched the Grenade episode, the most recent Okay, yeah,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: I also watched it. I am enjoying it. I a
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: little bits are frustrating me, but I have faith that
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: it will all be addressed. But the funny thing is
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: I decided to show Becca the first episode to see
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: if she would be interested in it, because I was like,
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: as I was watching, I was thinking, maybe I should
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: check in because this could be her thing too, and
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: it would be really crappy of me to just keep
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: watching it on my own. And she liked it. So
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: we watched the second episode, and then now we're watching
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: so she asked me this morning, She's like, is today
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: the day when the new Plurbus episode comes up? Like,
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, nine o'clock. So I have a feeling
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: that that's going to be our our weekly watch thing together,
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: which we we don't typically do. We don't really watch
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: a lot of television together. So that's gonna be our thing.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Anything else, No, but I do feel like episodes two
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: and three of Plurbus, it's not as it's not as
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: detrimental if you get spoilers for those you know, that
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: might change. I'm sure there are going to be episodes
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: where there's stuff that drops that it would be spoilery
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: and maybe ruin your journey, but you're going to still
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: just air on the side of caution. You'll have to
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: tell me offline though, since we both watched it, what
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: the things are that are bothered you?
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Okay? Well, for my part, the other things I watched
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: since the last time we recorded, uh, well, one I
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: listened to Once we Were Spacemen again. I think they're
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: up to episode three now, and I have recommended it
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: to Ariel so that when she has time she needs
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: to listen to Once We Were Spacemen because a couple things.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: It's Nathan Fillian and Alan Tudic, and they are delightful.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: They are very sincere in their praise and love for
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: each other and the craft that they each practice and
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: what they bring to their craft. It's it can get
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: a little a little like like congratulatory in those episodes,
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: but it's cute because it's two people who genuinely like
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: each other. You know, they're not blowing smoke. But the
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: other reason why I've recommended it to Ariel is because
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: they have a lot of talk about the industry and
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: specifically things that they found, you know, interesting or challenging.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: And I think anyone who is either wanting to pursue
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: a career in acting or just as really interested in
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: the process would find get a lot out of that
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: podcast because it's not expressly about that, that's just where
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: their conversations go. And I find that it's really enlightening
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: and also helpful to hear how people who have seen
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: great success in their careers still encounter things that are challenging,
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: you know, and in some cases they talk about things
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: where they're like, yeah, I had a really bad audition.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: It was my fault, and I chose to do this
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: and then later thought, they're going to be consequences to
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: that choice, and like they're not warning people off, but
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: at the same time, it's like it's almost like, just
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: be aware that your decisions have consequences, so that you
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: know when you make them you're mindful of That doesn't
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: mean change your decision, but just be aware that they're
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: going to be consequences. And I think that's really And
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: again they don't say any of this outright blatantly. That's
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: just the messaging I pick up and I think it's
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: really helpful, not just in acting obviously, but yeah, they're
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: realms as well.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: It is definitely on my list of things to watch.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: I just oh yeah, I'm also watching Critical Role, The
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Fall of the Aussy Thing and a Fang, and I'm
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: really behind on that, so it's on my list. It'll
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: be next in the queue.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: I also watched an improvised murder mystery that was modeled
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: after the K Pop Demon Hunters, except that they also
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: merge the K Pop Demon Hunters with the Golden Girls,
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: and I think the reason for that is because the
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: people performing didn't know enough about the K Pop Demon Hunters. Like,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: as I'm watching, I'm like, uh, this is one of
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: those things where they had the idea but no one
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: actually took the time to watch the movie.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Again, I don't know anything at all about having an
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: idea and not knowing enough to actually execute it. Nothing
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: at all from all of our mashups.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah it was. It was cute though. It was an
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: entertaining night, and the audience really enjoyed it, so that's
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: what's most important. And then I also am caught up
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: on Welcome to Dairy, the IT prequel. It continues to
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: be the stupid thing that bothered me, continues to be stupid,
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: and it continues to bother me. But I think the
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: performances are really good, Like I think there are some
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: really really good actors in this. Some of their choices
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: tend to be a little more theatrical than I was anticipating,
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: like like a little bigger than what you would expect
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: from a television performance, Like the I acting gets to
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: be a little bigger by bye, I mean eyeball, Like
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: the way people are looking at each other and making expressions. Cool,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: that was a big choice for a TV screen. But okay,
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: but yeah, the plot point that I think is stupid
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: continues to be stupid to me. Maybe not to everyone,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: but to me, and it's still bothering me. I also
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: learned that apparently the showrunners are hoping to get renewed
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: for a second and potentially third season, with the idea
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: of being that each season would take place twenty seven
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: years before the last one, because that's how long the
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: cycle is for penny Wise to kind of go into
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: hibernation before emerging to feed again. So the next season
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: would be in the nineteen thirties, and then the season
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: after that would be in the late nineteen hundreds or
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: like nineteen oh eight, not late nineteen hundreds, the decade
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: of nineteen hundred. And I don't know how I feel
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: about that too, because again, like we already know how
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: this season will ultimately end because they can't kill penny Wise,
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: because Pennywise shows up an it like penny Wise is
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: going to show up two more times after this one,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: so they can't kill him. So that you know that,
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Really the question is how many of these characters are
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: going to survive. One of them, you know, will survive
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: if you pay attention, because he's the father of a
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: character from it, and he's a kid in this, so
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: he has to live.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: I just I feel like if they aren't hitting it
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: out of the park with this season, if it feels
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: a little too samey, samey, then I don't have much
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: hope for the other two seasons.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I think it's going to depend on two things. One,
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: how many people are watching, because even if it's not
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: hitting artistically, if tons of people are watching, that's enough justification.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: But the other thing is beyond their control, which is
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: who the heck is gonna own Warner Brothers. But we'll
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: talk about that when we get the thirty seconds or less.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: Which, hey, unless you watch something else.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: Nope, I'm good.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: We're there.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, well let's start. First off, I learned from the
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Hollywood Reporter that Neil H. Morritz, producer of the Fast
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: and Furious franchisees and talks with Paramount to produce a
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: live action teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film franchise. Now, whether
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: this will be actors in suits or more like one
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: of those Disney Air quote live action films is unknown.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: A different gritty R rated TMNT film has reportedly been shelved.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: So my guess is whatever we do get, if we
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: get it, is going to be family friendly man.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: The best TMNT movies were the ones with people in suits.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: They hold up agreed at least affects wise. Well, don't worry.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: The Lububu movie apparently is not going to be in
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: quote unquote live action because Sony's animation division has taken
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: on the project. While they might still try to pass
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: it off as live action, but the animation division's doing it.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: That is all we know about the movie. There's no
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: script writer attached. There's no script. It's just they're gonna
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: make it.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: Me Well, back to the Hollywood Reporter, I read that
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: there's a growing bidding war brewing for our old pals,
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: Warner Brothers Discovery. This is why talking about a second ago. Now,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: Remember the merger of Warner Brothers and Discovery only happened
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: three years ago in twenty twenty two. Now it looks
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: like players like Comcast, Paramount, and Netflix are in the
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: mix to become the new stewards of Warner Brothers. Reportedly,
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: only Paramount has made a bid for the whole kitten kaboodle,
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: whereas the other two suitors just want a piece here
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: or there.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Very interesting. I wonder what pieces I'll have to look
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: into that more. Uh, we got a first look at
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Jimunji three, a movie that a movie series that Jonathan
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: hasn't watched since the nineties that I absolutely love this one.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Instead of being sucked into the game, the game characters
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: are being sucked into real life, much like the original.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: It looks great. I'm looking forward to it so so much.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: We're getting it. December eleventh, twenty twenty six. Happy birthday
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: to me.
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: Imax recently landed an exclusivity deal with Netflix that will
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: see the upcoming Narnia film from Greta Gerweg launch solely
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: on Imax screens for the first two weeks, and the
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: head of Europe's View Entertainment company isn't happy about it.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: So iView owns several movie theaters in Europe, and CEO
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: Tim Richards argues that exclusivity deals will hurt the overall
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: cinema industry, which is already going through a little bit
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: of a rough patch.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: I wonder if that will affect Black Panther three, which
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Ryan Kugler has confirmed is in the works and the
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: next movie he's making. However, that's all we know. You
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: don't know when it's coming out other than in phase
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: six post phase six of MCU, and.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Who even knows what's in phase six of this point? Well,
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: here's some comic book cinema whiplash. Earlier this week, Pierce
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: Brosnan said that Doctor Fate, whom he played in the
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: poorly received Black Adam film, was set to up here
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: in James Gunn's next Superman movie, Man of Tomorrow. Whether
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: this was to be played by Brosnan or a different
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: actor wasn't known, but Brosden indicated he would at least
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: be interested too bad. Gun later shot down this rumor
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: on social media, saying he had no fate in store
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: for Doctor Fate.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: All I mean, I'm not super upset. Okay, we are
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: getting a new Sense and Sensibility movie, this time starring
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Daisy Edgar Jones up the Aungenu of Season one of
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Bridgerton and Esmi Creed Miles, who I'm not as familiar
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: with I looked up and forgotten. Sorry everybody. It is
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: coming out September eleventh, twenty twenty six, is being done
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: by Focused Features.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm starting to feel badly for Glenn Powell. The
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: Running Man didn't sprint out of the Gate box office
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: wise and now His upcoming film with A twenty four
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: has been renamed and plopped into a late February release date.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: It had been called Huntington, but now we'll be known
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: as How to Make a Killing. It is inspired by
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: a nineteen forty nine film titled Kind, Hearts and Coronets.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: I wish I could talk more about this. I know
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: so much about it. Anyway. Could Hollywood be losing confidence
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: in mister Powell because I already did?
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, I still want to see Running Man. It
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: did not get great critical reviews sixty seven percent, but
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: audience reviews is like eighty mid eighties, so that's not horrible.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: I just haven't had time. We got the first look
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: at the characters from the new live action led Legend
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: of Zelda movie. I guess they looked like Lincoln Zelda.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: The pictures aren't really exciting. It's just picture of two
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: pretty teenagers, young adults. I don't even know how old
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: they are. But it's filming in New Zealand and they
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: said they want to give it like a Miyazaki Prince,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: this moment from mon AoE gay Field, and I'm for that.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I felt the pictures looked a little CW
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: honestly okay. In our penultimate story, an original copy of
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: Superman's first comic book appearance in Action Comics Number one,
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: sold an auction for a sum so large even Superman
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: would have trouble carrying it to the bank. Someone bought
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: the issue for nine point one two million dollars, which
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: handily broke the previous record also for Action Comics number one,
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: of six million bucks way back in the good old
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: days of twenty twenty four. And to think, when it
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: published in nineteen thirty nine, it sold for ten cents.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: Wowsa geez goodness, Okay, it deserved all three of those.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Has ordered a Stargate TV series. It is being helmed
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: by Martin Garo, who has worked on Stargate Atlantis, Stargate
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: SG one, and Stargate what was the other one, Stargate
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: Universe Stares Stargate Look. I would watch that occasionally. The
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: original Stargate TV show would do weird crossovers so like
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: they had the Farskape people on there. Once I have
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: been hit or miss on the Stargate TV shows. It
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: feels a little too CW Hollywood to me. But and
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: Stargate SG one or whatever, the later one was the
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: I don't remember anyhow, not Stargate SG one that was
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: a first. It was like Stargate Universe or something like that.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, Atlantis was just dorky, but I watched it,
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: but Stargate Universe was the one that felt like a
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: little bit more like That'll Star glactic gritty, and then
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: like changed course after the first episode and lost my interest.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: But I love the movie Stargate, and I love the
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: concept of Stargate, and I did even love the cheesy
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: TV shows even though they felt a little bit too
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: like Hollywood actor. So I am. I am very hopeful
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: for this series. You know, I love Fallout and I
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: love the critical role stuff, so I'm really hoping that
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: this one's another hit out of the park.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: I look forward to telling Beca about this. She was
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: a huge fan of the original TV series. I think
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: she liked the movie, but she really liked the original
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: TV series, so she might be excited to hear that
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: there's going to be a new one or maybe not.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: It's hard to say with her. Sometimes I say thanks
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: to her and she's.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: Like, ah, I guess it depends on the day too.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess. So I mean it kind of depends
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: on how our day's been going. That's that's totally fair. Well,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: let's move into the segment we lovingly called Hey, how'd
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: that get in here?
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah? And first, we got a trailer last week. We
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: missed it for The Devilwaar's Prada two.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: I want to be clear, I didn't miss it. I
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: just didn't put it into the lad taken it out
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: this week too, No, you want you had it in
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: here and I was like, you know, what if you
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: have something to say, but I want to keep it
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: in there.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: I don't really other than the fact that I feel
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: like the The Devilware's Prata one was fine. It was
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: a fine movie. A lot of people loved it. I
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: thought it was nothing to write home about. But it's
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: got an amazing cast. Uh. The fun thing about The
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Devilwaars Prada too, is all of the social media stuff
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: that's been going on has been a lot more fun
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: than the trailer.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: Well, the trailers really more of a teaser that just
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: reintroduces us to Meryl, Streep and and Hathaway as their characters,
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: except now Hathaway is also a snooty, snooty elite elitist,
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: so yay. But I never watched the Devilware's product, so
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: I really shouldn't be casting any shape. The thing I'm
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: most aware of is that it was a film in
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: which Anne Hathaway and like Emily Blunt apparently just became
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: really fast friends.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's interesting so Emily but and Mark Strong
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: both played kind of assistance to Meryl Streep's character. I
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: almost said Glenn Close, but it's Meryl Streep and they
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: are in this new movie too, and I really like,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: more than anything else, more than the storyline, I just
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: wonder what those two positions, those two actors' positions will
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: be in this movie.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I I can't say that I'm super curious about it.
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: I also, if I sound weird, it's because I was
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: just doing the thing that Ariel usually does, which is
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: I'm checking the internet to make sure I was right
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: about Anne Hathaway and it wasn't like Anna Kendrick or something.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: Hathaway.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It was one of those things where I'm like,
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: oh no, it's a pretty brunette actress, and I mixed
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: them all up.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Oh no, pretty brunette actresses.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: That's listen. There are a lot of very talented, very
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: pretty brunette actresses, and sometimes I can't remember which ones
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: were in what? Like was Anna Kendrick or was it
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: Anne Hathaway who was in the one where it was
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: she was secretly in control of a giant Kaiju monster.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: That was Anne Hathaway.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: Okay, See which one was in the the a cappella
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: music one?
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: That was Anna Kendrick. See.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: That's the thing is that if you put those movies
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: back to back and then asked me who was in what,
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: I still wouldn't be able to tell you.
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: Anna Kendrick was in Scott Pilgrim. Oh right, she played Scott's.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: Sister, right, whereas Aubrey Plaza played the one who kept
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: having her her lines censored? Right, Yes, yeah, Okay, I'm
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: slowly I should know that because like, directly over my
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: head is a sign Scott Pilgrim movie poster. And that's
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: how bad a fan I am. All right, well, let's
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: talk about the next thing that's on our list of
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: stuff that. Oh well, I guess I should also mentioned
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: Devilware's Product Too is slated to launch on May first,
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty six. But uh, the next thing up is
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: a movie that's kind of about kind of about stand
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: up comedy, kind of about you know, trying to find
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: your way after a relationship has kind of run its course,
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: kind of like a midlife crisis thing. It stars Will
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: Arnett and it is titled is this Thing on It?
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Uh, it doesn't really fit in our show unless you're
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: just like man, I am massively geeky about stand up comedians.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: It does have like Amy Sidaris and who I Love?
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: Is that right?
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: Does it have Amy Sidarius? No? Lord, yeah, it does
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: save Amy Sidarus.
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: So also has Laura Dern.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it stars Laura Dern and Will Arnette's got Bradley Cooper,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: It's got Sean Hayes, it's got Kieran Hines, Emily Blunt again,
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: Andrew Day. Just like a huge Peyton Manning of all things.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: But it looks really cute. It's yeah, I don't know,
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: you've talked about it. It's a guy who's getting a
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: divorce and does stand up to work through it. And
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: I know so many friends who do stand up to
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: work through things, and so it feels very earnest, yeah,
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: and also very funny.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, we're friends with people who do stand up comedy,
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: something that I don't think I could ever, do like
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: it's just not that's not a performance thing that's inside
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: of me. I should also mention this film is apparently
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: this is, according to Wikipedia, loosely based off a real
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: comedian named John Bishop who's from the UK. And the
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: movie comes out on December nineteenth, so it looks like
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: it's a very earnest film. I will be curious to
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: see what the reception is to this one.
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, me too. Last trailer for Stuff that Doesn't Fit.
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if we were going to put into
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: this into this lineup, but we did. It's for Downriver.
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: It looked like you were going to say something I'm sorry, John.
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no no, Well you had recommended at one
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: point of possibly putting this into John Boy's horror hutch.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: But I don't feel like this is really a horror
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: so much as like a crime thriller. I mean, and
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: that's being generous because the trailer itself is purposefully mysterious
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: in that it doesn't tell you any details about what's
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: going on. Clearly, there's a sheriff of like a rural
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: community investigating crime, attempting to stop someone from committing suicide
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: by jumping to their death off a bridge, and the
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: fact that the sheriff has a young son, and then
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: beyond that, you can't really see what is going on
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: the film other than the sheriff himself is struggling with
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: issues of mental health. I saw someone who had a
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: guess as to what the movie was really about, and
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: it was to the point where I'm like, I suspect
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: this dude has read the screenplay, because this is really specific.
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: These are some specific guesses this guy has, and maybe
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: he did just come by these guesses honestly, but I
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: have a feeling I have read what this movie's really about.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know how I feel about it, Like, it
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: looks like it's pretty well made, but yeah, the fact
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: that the trailer is so purposefully vague makes it hard
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: to like really have a hook set in.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: I agree. I will say it does have a vague,
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: geeky like attachment, which is Bethany Anne Lynde is one
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: of the main actresses in it, and she was Robot
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: ma AND's daughter in Doom Patrol. She's a local Atlanta actor.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: Oh maybe that's why I thought she looked familiar in
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: this because there was a moment where I was like,
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: I don't know who this person is, but I swear
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: i've seen seen her before.
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, she's done a lot more than Doom Patrol.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: But that's like the geeky.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: Sure, this one comes out December ninth, on digital and
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: on demand, so I don't think it got theatrical distribution.
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: Then I guess that we can move on into John
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Boy's horror Hutch. I'll make it relatively quick now. First
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: of all, again, Aerry All got to ask you you
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: watch Okay you did? Yes? Did you watch both of them?
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: Yes? I'm interested in both of these movies.
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, it's interesting. You can't you don't like cannibalism, but
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: you can. You can handle zombie movies.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: Interesting.
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: I mean I still don't like zombies eating, like watching
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: zombies eat people, but I can handle it. And the
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: difference is here's the difference. Zombies are not real. Sure,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: zombies are are a fictional monster. The things that always
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: bother me most in horror, sci fi, thriller stuff like
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: that are the things that real people could and sometimes do.
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: Do.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: Disturbed people. Yeah, so cannibalism is a real thing that
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: real people can and do do, and that disturbs me.
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: Got it? Yeah, it's you'll be thankful to hear it's
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: exceedingly rare. But then so's the food. But a boom.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: Hey, now, I don't know if you were joking all over.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: No, I was not joking about you being it is infrequent.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: How about that exceedingly infrequent?
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I mean it is, but you know, it's the fear
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: of something that could actually happen, right.
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: I got it, I got it. Yeah, No, that makes sense.
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: Like it's I can see that like one of the
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: subgenres of horror that I am not a huge fan of,
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: probably for similar reasons. If I were to really sit
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: down and analyze, it would be the home invasion subgenre,
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: because that's something that while it's unlikely you would ever
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: encounter anything remotely like you know, the strangers or funny
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: games or anything like that, the fact that home invasions
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: happen like they happen every day, like that's something that
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: would probably be a little more. It wouldn't strike me
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: as being entertaining, and it's why I tend to not
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: seek those out. Occasionally, I'll watch one, but it's not
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: my first choice.
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: Well, the two also chemibalism horror movies, at least not
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: always but oftentimes are portrayed because I don't watch a
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: lot of them are portrayed in the bits that I
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: see as a person alive being tortured. Yeah yeah, yeah,
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: and so that hits two kind of X for sure.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, So you should never watch Green Inferno. You
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: should never watch Bone Tomahawk. Those are two movies I
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: have seen that you absolutely should not watch.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: They weren't on my list.
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: So great. Bone Tomahawk is amazing. It's an amazing movie,
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: but it is brutal. Green Inferno is not an amazing movie,
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: but it is entertaining the probably the same reason.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: The closest I could do is Cannibal the musical, and
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: I haven't watched that in years. I like, I've watched that,
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: and I've watched Silence of the Lamps, and I enjoyed both,
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: and I probably and I've rewatched both. But I am
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: now in an era of my life, the non Cannibal era,
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: where I probably could not watch them again.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Right, Well, the sky is blue and all the leaves
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: are grass. My heart's as full as a baked.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: As a baked potato.
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: Yes, well, let's let's talk about the horror hutch. We
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: got two in trees, and we've talked about one of
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: them already once before, which is we Bury the Dead.
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: We got a full trailer for this. This is the
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: one that has Daisy Ridley playing the protagonist. It is
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: set in a world where there has been a zombie outbreak,
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: but initially authorities are reassuring everyone that the reanimated dead
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: are docile, that they are harmless. However, as time goes on,
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: it turns out this is not the case, and then
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: you've got this element of is the government purposefully withholding
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: information in order to avoid a panic? You know? How
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: much do they know? Are they aware that these zombies
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: in fact do get violent over time. Meanwhile, the other
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: part of the story is that Daisy Ridley's character, her
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: husband was in the region where the zombie outbreak first occurred.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: That's now kind of a no man's zone. You're not
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: supposed to go in there. So she volunteers for essentially
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: burial duty so that she can go into the zone
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: and look for her husband or look for what happened
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: to him. So those are the kind of the things
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: that are coming together in the storyline. What did you
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: think of the trailer?
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: I thought it was really good. I thought it showed
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: a lot more of like the sci fi horror aspect
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: than the Tasers that we got. It kind of feels
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: like to me, like the spiritual sequel to twenty eight
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: Days Later, not the twenty eight entire franchise, but twenty
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: eight Days Later, but better production value because it's made
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: now with like a little taste of annihilation. And that's
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: just because an annihilation a woman goes into an unknown
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: phenomenon to find her husband, and the government or ruling
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: entity over that phenomenon is being real shady about what's
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: actually going on in there. So but it looks really
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: interesting to me.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: I agree. I thought that this is it's a well
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: made trailer. It looks like a pretty It's tough to
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: make a zombie film that kind of stands out just
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: because that whole trope has been so heavily played over
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: the last like two decades. Like you know, there's just
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: there was just such a glut of zombie material for
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: a long time that you really need to find a
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: way to stand out. This does a pretty good job
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: of it. And I would like to see Daisy Ridley
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: in something that's not Star Wars, and I haven't sought
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: out her other works, so maybe I'll check this out.
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: It comes out January second, in limited theatrical release, so
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: there's no guarantee that it'll be in the theater near you,
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: but you know, keep your eyes out.
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: I might, I might try to go see this one.
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: Cool. Well, let me know if you do, because maybe
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: we'll maybe we'll go check it out. We also got
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: a trailer to return to Silent Hill. This is a
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: film adaptation of essentially Silent Hill too, more or less
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: or at least inspired by Silent Hill two. The same
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: director did a Silent Hill move like twenty years ago,
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: like in two thousand and six or something, which I
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: have not seen, so I cannot comment on that. Also,
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: I want to say I am not like I haven't
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: really played any of the games. I tried to, but
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: you know those games are they're rough to play by
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: modern standards, like things like you know, tank controls and stuff.
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like this in the old Resident Evil games.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I I I don't I've got thoughts about
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: this trailer. What'd you think? First?
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: Aiel, So, I'm not familiar with a lot of Silent Hill.
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: I've seen some trailers and then I've seen, like the
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: trailer for Silent Hill F. I didn't realize that the
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: the kind of the over overgrowing fungus that happens in
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: Silent Hill F it happens in the actual Silent Hill.
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: I haven't paid a lot of attention to it. I
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: think it looks visually very good. I think it looks scary.
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: But honestly, the thing that hit me the most was
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: I need to go and read what happened in that
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: town that causes these different mutations and things and weird things,
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: because I don't actually know, and I am curious now.
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: Well, I feel like I feel like a lot of
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: Japanese horror rests on them just not explaining stuff in
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: some cases, like they just like that's not important, and
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: so they just don't do it right, which is sort
• 58:32
  Speaker 2: of opposite how Western storytelling tends to be. And it's
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: one of the reasons why I often get tripped up
• 58:40
  Speaker 2: with Japanese storytelling, because I've been so indoctrinated in the
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: Western style that I can find it frustrating to try
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: and consume a Japanese story. That's not to say that
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: the stories are bad, just that you know, my brain's
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: been wired a certain way. When I encounter stuff that
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: doesn't go along that way, it's it's challenging to me.
• 59:05
  Speaker 2: I actually, so the first time I watched this, it
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: must have been the screen or something, because at first
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: I couldn't tell if this was gonna be live action
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: or like CG. MH.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: Well, like, obviously some of it's gonna have to be CG.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean, like the lead, the lead protagonist.
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: When I first saw it, it to me looked like
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: kind of like Avatar, where you're like, I think that's
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: just a CG character, not an actual human being. Like
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: there was stuff that felt like it was CG, maybe
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: even stuff that was AI generated. I don't know for
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: sure that that's the case. It just felt that way
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: to me, so I didn't it didn't strike me. I didn't.
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: I didn't find it as visually interesting. But then I
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: did try and watch it again earlier today and was
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: on a different computer, and it looked much better on
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: that computer than it did the first time I watched it.
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: So it may have just been that I was watching
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: it on a crappy screen and that was the problem.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: Not that the movie itself reflected anything issue with an issue,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: but well.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: And I know that you're sensitive to resolutions and frame
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: rates in general.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: So yeah, but you know, if you are a silent
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: Hill fan, you should at least check out the trailer
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: to see if this is something that's interesting to you.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 2: It did not win me over, but I am not
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: a Silent Hill fan, so you know I'm not the
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: right audience for this. Anyway. It comes out January twenty third,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 2: so you got a little time before the movie is
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: actually out and available, So go check out that trailer
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: if you're a big silent Hill fan. Let us know,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: by the way, if you're a big silent Hill fan,
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: what your your impressions of the trailer were, because for
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: all I know, this could be something where people are like, oh,
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: this is the adaptation I've been waiting for, although a
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: lot of the stuff I've seen recently is like some
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: of the stuff they've changed people. Anytime you change anything,
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: people have issues with it.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but we're interested to hear your thoughts.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Yeah, they're valid either way, Like if you think
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: it's great that I want to hear, or if you're like,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: I have real problems and if you can articulate why,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: that would be great.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: Well, you know we've we've talked about horror, but we
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: still have to talk about the horror of quote unquote
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: live action a little bit more.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: So that brings us I think I'm sensing what your
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: reaction is to our first item.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, so that brings us to our first item in
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: our actual show notes, which is we got a teaser
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: for the live action live action Maana. Now I will
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: say up front it is better than saying it's a
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: live action Lion King or a live action Lady and
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: the Tramp, because there are actual actors in this.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: But there's a lot of CG on here. Yeah, it's
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: another one where it's like is that actually a person
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: or is that a CG version of a person? Like yeah,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: some of which I was like that it's gotta be CG.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: Or if it's not CG, they filtered the heck out
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: of that shot, right, Okay. So I don't want to
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: cast dispersions on anyone for their performance, for the work
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: that they have done. There's clearly a ton of work
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: that has gone into this. But I did not like
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: the arrangement of the song at all. Maybe that's just
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: because I like the original so much that deviating from
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: that just doesn't work for me. Yeah, I, And I'm
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: still of the opinion that I don't like it adaptations
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: like the animated to live action adaptations in general because
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: I feel like they're kind of creatively bankrupt.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I also like so in the live action
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: Little Mermaid that they did recently, which there were parts
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: of it I absolutely loved, Like overall, I enjoyed watching
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: it because they added a whole Rogers and Hammer Signs
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: section to it that was amazing that I loved it
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: was it made the story better. I loved it. A
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: lot of the underwater stuff wasn't as spectacular, the songs
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: weren't as great, and all that. In that they decided
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: to try to make the CGI animals look like real
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: animals in this for Hey Hey, at least they did
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: not try to make it like it look like a
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: real rooster. They tried to make hey Hey look like
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: the cartoon rooster, and I didn't at least I didn't
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: catch a real person and that rooster interacting together. And
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know how it's gonna work.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I uh, I I am not a fan of
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: I already said this, I'm not a fan of that.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: I think everyone who's working on this is doing great work.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: I just wish that it was on something else. I
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: do like the fact that people of the Polynesian cultures
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: are getting to tell stories that are relevant to their
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: culture that I think is great. I wish it could
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: be something other than a retelling of Malwana, simply because
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: we already have Milana and we didn't even.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: Well, I was gonna say, we didn't get Malana that
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: long ago.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: But I guess it, like, it doesn't feel like it
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: was that long ago.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like it was that long ago.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: Like it's not like therenow White, Like snow White they
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: waited they waited like more than ninety years or something.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Little Mermaid they waited like thirty.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: So yeah, a little over. So maybe we'll get in
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: Kanto next, a live action in Kanto.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, I mean Molana wasn't that long ago. It
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: was twenty sixteen. Yeah, Like when you're looking in the
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: span in the span of like movies that is still
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: a fairly recent movie.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because usually you're thinking, let's aim, let's do a
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: live action adaptation of a movie that people who have
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: kids now they were kids when the original movie came
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: out twenty sixteen, is a little on the early side
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: for that.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I feel like the earliest you should
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: be doing a remake of a movie is ten years,
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: and that's the earliest.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I feel the same, although I guess this
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: is technically ten years because yeah, but I still.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: Feel like it's a little too early. Like I still
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: feel it's a.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: Little too early. This comes out July tenth, and you know, again,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: this was a first look. It may be that, you know,
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: maybe we'll get a trailer where it'll have a brand
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: new song by Lynn Manuel Miranda that just like recaptures
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: our excitement. I don't want to dismiss this totally. I
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: can't say that it's bad. I haven't seen it, and
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: even if I did see it and I didn't like it,
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: that's different from it being bad. I just have a
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: lot of prejudices, a lot of bias. Sees that the
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: film will have to overcome or I'll have to be
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: a better person, And we already know that second one's
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: not happening.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: So stop dissing my friend. You're a good person. You
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: have a very big heart. I do like the story
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: of Mawana. I liked the cartoon, and not even the
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: music that much. I just liked the story. It was fun.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: I also love the ocean, so I mean I I
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: think Tomatoa's song is one of my favorite Disney villain
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: songs of all times. Shy, Yeah, Shiny is a great song.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: You're also a huge Jamaine Clement fan.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: That's also true. That is also true. I love Jamaine
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: Clement's humor and work, and I love Fly of the
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: Concords and what we do in the Shadows. And yeah,
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: so he was true in.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: Legion.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: Interesting, I didn't even know he was in Legion. Uh,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: all right, Well then next up, we've got another trailer
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: for Project Hail Mary. This is the film adaptation of
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: the Andy Weir novel that came out just I think
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one. This trailer has some things that
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: you might consider to be spoilerish in them, because they
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: tell you what the whole second half of the movie is.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: Like. Yeah, so the first trailer just told us, really
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: that a guy is trying to save Earth and he
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: goes out into space.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, especially stars are dying. This microbiologist, for some reason,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 2: is picked to be part of a mission to reverse
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: this dying star issue, and then despite his protestations, he's
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 2: sent up to go take care of this issue. This
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: trailer has way more in it.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, which for everybody I found out this trailer
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: had more in it when my friend said, oh, I
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: wish this trailer hadn't spoiled these things for me, I
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: would have liked to have gone into it blind, like
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: I did with The Martian, because that friend hadn't read
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: either book, yeah, both being by the same author. I
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: had looked up spoilers when the first trailer came out
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: because I had a friend talk about it and I
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: was curious what he was alluding to without spoiling it.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: So it wasn't spoiled for me. But it looks good
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: and it looks fun, and I still want to see
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: this movie. I'm not going to talk about what's in
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: the second trailer. If you don't mind spoilers, or if
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: you've read the book, you should watch the trailer.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would just say you if the teaser, If
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: you saw the teaser and that was interesting to you,
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: just avoid trailers from here on out and just wait
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: till the movie. The movie comes out March twentieth, so
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 2: you're going to be waiting a while, but wait to
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: see the film. I mean, even the earlier trailer did
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: reveal that he encounters alien life that trailer, so you
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 2: do know that that happens if you watch that first trailer.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: If you didn't know, and you haven't watched any trailers, well,
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know how you would know you'd want to
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: see this, but but I will say, like, there's way
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: a lot of the mystery of that alien life is
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: kind of peeled away in the second trailer, and I
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: do think that robs you of some of the joy
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: of discovery. So I would recommend just going in blind
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 2: or or more blind than not, if you think this
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: film sounds interesting to you.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Next, we got a trailer for The Hunger Guy Games.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: Sunrise on the Reaping.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Sunrise on the Reaping makes me happy.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: There's a bright golden haze on the reaping.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 2: It's the Reaping with the fringe on top. Yeah. So
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: this is a prequel, Okay, it's I want to say
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: that this is telling the story of the Hunger Games
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: where Woody Harrelson's character from the main series was a competitor.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: So it's when he was a kid, a teenager. I
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: want to say that's the case. I could be totally wrong,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: as I have not read the books nor seen the films, but.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: I please go no, you go ahead.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 2: I was just saying I believe that's the case. I
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: think it's the story of the Hunger Games where he
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: was a participant.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: Gotcha, that sounds familiar. I know that they've talked about
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: this for a while. The trailer just came out like
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: to the point where like, when I saw the trailer,
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: I'm like, is this old news? It's not. I have
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: watched like the first two or three Hunger Games annoyingly,
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: and I love my husband. I'm not actually mad at him,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: but like I was like, you like enders game. You
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: should watch Hunger Games, Tony, you would like it. And
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: then on a lone he was like, huh, someone told
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: me I should watch this and you watched it without me,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, I've been trying to get you to
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: watch these movies forever, dork, But no, it's fine because
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: I've watched them and you've watched them, and now I
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: know your opinion, which I thought you'd like them, so
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you watch them and it's all fun. I'm
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: not actually mad. He watched them at a time I
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: wasn't available anyhow, so I sent him this because he
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: might like it. It looks pretty Honestly, I I didn't
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: remember enough about it to know it was a prequel,
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: which makes it a little sad because like, these games
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: are going to be different, and I'm like, well, obviously
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: they're not, because we still get to the Hunger Games
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: if it is a prequel.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think. I think the difference is that I
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: think there's like twice as many competitors in this particular
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: Hunger Games, like it was like the from what I
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 2: understand in the mythology of the Hunger Games world, like
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: at certain on certain time stamps, like at certain decades
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: or whatever, they have a Hunger Games that is bigger
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: or has some element to it that isn't in their
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: normal Hunger Games at event. But I'm talking out of
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: my butt here because again I haven't read the books
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: or seen the movies. I also don't understand why do
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: a prequel for this, because again, like you said, Ariel,
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: we already know where everything's going because the other series
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: takes place after this, so you know this isn't going
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 2: to be the end of the games or anything like that.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: I guess it gives you more information about one of
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: the characters and explains why he is the way he is.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: But.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know. To me, this becomes a thing of
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 2: It's the same issue I have with Welcome to Darry,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 2: which is that it becomes a thing where it's like, yeah,
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: we can keep going back in time again and again
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: and again to do to mine this material for more
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: stories to tell, but then it just becomes here's another
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: story of people being forced into a miserable situation, and
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 2: you know that whatever resolution there's going to be won't
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 2: be completely satisfying because you already know what comes next.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: I also wonder because so you are correct looking at
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: because I wanted to look at the cast list, because
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 1: the cast list of this prequel is amazing. It's got
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: so many wonderful younger and older actors. It doesn't have
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 1: Philip Seymour Hoffman because he passed away, so Jesse Jesse
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: Plemmons is taking his place. But you're right, it is.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: It is following Woody Harrelson's character, you know. So maybe
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: maybe the difference is these kids were alone and after
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: their thing. Now they have they get to have these
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: sponsors who kind of helped them fruit through, like f
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: you Trinkett in Hey Match, Abernathy, I mean, got the
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: last name right. The funniest thing to me is that
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: Glenn Close plays a character in this who is almost
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: unrecognizable as Glenn Close. Yeah, because they give her such
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: a look of play surgery.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: And they wheel her out like Hannibal Lecter.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: She looks like So, I know you didn't watch a
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: lot of Doctor Who. Did you watch the episode with Cassandra?
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 2: Are you talking about the face that's stretched across the.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: Yes, moisturize me. Yes, she looks like that to me.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have seen that that. That is one of
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 2: the other things I'll be having a nightmare about later tonight.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: So we've got a whole list.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: This.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: By the way, this movie doesn't come out until November
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: twentieth of next year, so like it is almost a
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: full year till this movie comes out. I just want
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: to point out it is unusual for us to talk
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: about trailers that are that far out. To me, like
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: the stuff that we tend to watch, it's the stuff
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 2: that's having the Internet, and you're usually looking at a
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 2: one to maybe three month spanh So for something to
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: be that far out. I'm like, oh, man, I can't
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 2: remember the last time I ran into a trailer for
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 2: a movie that's like a year away from releasing.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: It is interesting because you want to tell You want
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: to tell people about a movie so they can get
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: excited about it, but you don't want to release too
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: much too soon, because then it's not going to stay
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: fresh in their minds. Yeah, or if it is, it's
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: because you're releasing way too much about it as time
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: goes on.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: So I am looking forward to the Hunger Games themed
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 2: float during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade this year.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: You know, if they pull it off, that would be great.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: The next trailer we got, I don't know if they're
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: pulling off the story they're trying to tell. It's for
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: a movie called Starbright with John Rice Davies Reece Davies,
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: John Reece Davies, John Reece Davies, Sorry, sir, and it's
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: I can't I can't even tell you what it's about
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: because it feels so disjointed to me.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I had to look up more information about what
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: this movie is actually about because the trailer I couldn't tell.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 2: But when I looked it up. The impression I got is, oh,
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: this is like disney Wish, except it's not as fanciful.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: It's not set in like a fairy tale setting, but
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: it's the idea of this fallen star that possesses power,
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: and so there's a young woman who comes across the star,
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: and there are other forces that want to get hold
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: of the star for various reasons, and that sets off
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: an adventure. I'm like, oh, that's like Disney's Wish, except
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: this is not animated or nearly as whimsical.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so half of it's got this fantasy. There's
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: sword fighting, but there's also like people escaping from jail
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: with guns, and why would you bring a sword to
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: a gunfight?
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: I mean it might be a great story about healing
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: and moving on and moving past trauma, and that would
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: be wonderful. The trailer just feels so all over the
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: place to me.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 2: It does, I agree, comes out January ninth. I'm glad
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 2: to see something that's set in sort of a a
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: fantasy setting that is not an immediately recognizable IP adaptation.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, maybe this is I don't know, maybe this
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: existed in some other format, but it does bear some
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: similarities to other stuff we've seen, so that part's unfortunate.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: I found this trailer kind of muddled as well. Like
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 2: the only reason I can talk at all about what's
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: going on is because I went beyond the trailer and
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: looked it up.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I hope it's good. I like John
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: Rays Davies, nice person.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: Got to act with him once that was great.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he does seem he seems very nice the
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: times that I've interacted with him as well. He was
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: also a very stand up fellow. The next trailer we
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: have is for the Pendragon Dragon. Ooh, Ariel speak sentences.
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: This is this episode's a little bit long, so we're
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: gonna speed up a little bit. But for the pen
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: Dragon cycle.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: Rise of the of the Merlin. Yeah, of the Merlin,
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 2: not Rise of Merlin. No, the Merlin like Merlin in
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 2: this case, is being used as both the name and.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: A title, gotcha, which is essentially Merlin versus the Vikings.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: So okay, So it looks like if you, first of all,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 2: here's an odd thing. This is on Daily Wire, which
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: is not something I was really familiar with for fiction.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 2: Daily Wire I think of as a conservative leaning to
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 2: put it lightly, television channel network like a right leaning network,
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 2: but they have gotten into some other like fiction content creation.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 2: And this series will be on Daily Wire Plus starting
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 2: on January twenty second, although if you're an All Access
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: member you'll be able to watch the first two episodes
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: on Christmas Day. If you're familiar with the Arthur and
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 2: legend and you talk to anyone who is a historian,
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 2: like real historians will say like, no, there's not a
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 2: King Arthur. But if you were to talk about King Arthur,
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: you're talking about an era that's likely right after the
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 2: Romans leave, and so the Empire of Rome is in ruins.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 2: Romans withdraw from northern Europe. The what would become England
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: is ruled by a bunch of different regional kings, like
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 2: they have smaller kingdoms like you know, Essex and Sussex
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 2: and things like that, Westmoreland, all that kind of stuff,
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: and you have the Britons who live there. But then
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 2: the Saxons are invading, and the idea is that King
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: Arthur is the king who unites all the other kings
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 2: to defend against the Saxons. Spoiler alert, The Saxons end
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: up end up populating England, so it doesn't really work.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: But anyway, this I feel like the series, and I
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 2: haven't read the books that this is based off of,
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: I feel like the series is building upon that concept,
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: the idea of Arthur uniting Briton's to stand against a
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 2: Saxon invasion. And in this case, it's not Arthur, it's Merlin,
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 2: It's It's The next book in the cycle would be
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 2: dealing with more Arthurian stuff, but this deals specifically with
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 2: with Merlin and his legend.
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: Interesting. So do you think it looks good?
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 2: Uh? I think you know what, I don't think it
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: looks bad. Which I'm not gonna get political here, but
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: I am not a right leaning person, so like I like,
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: my first instinct to see something that's produced by the
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: Daily Wire is to be biased against it, But I
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: don't think it looks bad. I'm not sure if I
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: would want to watch it, but I thought it looks
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: like it's fairly competently made, and when I think about
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 2: other Merlin stories I've seen like, it's at least as good,
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: if not better than some of the other ones. Like
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you did you ever watch the
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 2: Merlin mini series that had Sam Neil.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: I was about to say that is the one that
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: sticks out in my head the very most of all time,
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: because I loved Arthur. Like, I'm not a historian like you,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: but I loved watching Athurian legend stories. Like my favorite
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: book reading like as a kid was one of my
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 1: favorite books that my mom read to me was a
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: Connecticut Yankee and King Arthur's Court. So, like, I like
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: the whole Arthur story and I loved the Sam Neil
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: mini series. This kind of gave me vibes of that.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this one is less like the Sam Neil one
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: gets pretty cheesy, Like there's some cheesy stuff in that.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, you had Martin Short playing a character in
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 2: the Merlin miniseries.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's like Morgana's like Henchman, don't.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 2: He's Yeah, he's like this little like a well ends
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 2: up being like almost like impish. But the this looks
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 2: grounded isn't the right word because there's still very much
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 2: kind of a sorcery sort of element going on here,
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: but maybe a little grittier, well a lot grittier than
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: the Merlin mini series was. So again, if you're into
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: Arthurian Legend, you should check out the trailer or see
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 2: what you think. Uh, yeah, I have my own reservations
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: for multiple reasons, but I don't want to. I don't
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 2: want to influence anybody just because I have issues with
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: Daily Wire.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: Now I want to go back and watch the Merlin
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: mini series again.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: Geez, I wish it had been better. I didn't think
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 2: it was bad. I just wish it had been better.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: I loved it it the time, but I was pretty young.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: I think when it came out. I don't remember exactly when.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: But was that for I think it was for like
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: NBC or something like that. It was like a broadcast one.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 2: I was like fifteen when it came out, so so
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: like like six years ago.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: Oh thank you, Yes, only six years ago. So I
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: really enjoyed it the time. But I also loved Tenth
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: Kingdom so and I know that when I rewatched that
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: that is also very cheesy.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 2: So you know who also really loves Tenth Kingdom, like
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 2: really loves a friend of the show.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: It's so problematic, but I love it so much.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, the more you watch the wolf stuff, the
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: more you're.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: Like, oh, this was off a time yet, and yet
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: that character caused so many people's awakening.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: Saying sure, We've already talked about bo Peep, so I'm
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 2: not going to talk about my own awakening. All right. Well,
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: next up, we got a trailer for season two of
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 2: tomb Raider. The Legend of Laura Croft, an animated series
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 2: that's on Netflix. The season two starts on December eleventh.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 2: I'll say this, the trailer looks very Lara Crofty. It's
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 2: craft being craft while lots of like Indiana Jones level
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 2: mystical stuff is going on, mostly in explosion form.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some time tongue in cheek comedy, so it's
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: not quite as serious as a lot of the other
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: tomb Raider stuff I've seen, But it's not as tongue
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: in cheeky as Harley Quinn.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: I'd say, oh yeah, not nowhere close, nowhere near.
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: It looks cute, it looks fine. Yeah, I forgot there
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: was a season one.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: Uh. I forgot how deep into like mystical stuff tomb
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 2: Raider can get because the last tomb Raider game I
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: played was one of the reboot ones where it feels,
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: in general, it feels like it's in a more grounded world.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: I say that while also realizing that the amount of
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 2: physical abuse Laura Croft endures by falling down multiple mountains
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 2: and sliding for like five minutes at a time, means
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 2: that she would yeah, no, she would be a pulp
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 2: like she would not be a human being at the
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 2: end of that game, based upon the amount of physical
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 2: punishment she takes. But but there's not like a lot
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 2: of you know, Raiders Lost Art kind of mysticism stuff
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: happening in that game that I can remember. I might
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 2: be forgetting a huge part of that game, but this,
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 2: like the mystical stuff is a huge part of what
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 2: takes you know, front and center frame in the in
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 2: the series. So if that's your thing, check that out.
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 2: That's coming to Netflix December eleventh.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Next is for something that could have maybe almost
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: gone into the horror hutch. It's a trailer for Night Patrol,
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 1: which is Hops versus Vampires.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 2: Which I did not know when I started watching this trailer.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: Like when I started watching the trailer, I thought it
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: was just gonna be a cop drama. Like I thought
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 2: it was gonna be a cop drama slash thriller with
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: Justin Long in it, and I was ready to put
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 2: it in the does not fit section, and it wasn't
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: until about halfway through the trailer where I was like,
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: wait a minute, I think that there's a vampire.
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of like the I had mentioned an
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: older movie a few episodes back called night Watch because
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: we were getting another movie by that director. I just
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 1: shared the trailer with Jonathan. He's, oh, yeah, I remember
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: that vaguely. So when I saw A night Patrol, I'm like,
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: is this a remaking of night Watch? It's not, but
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: it's also not too far off. It's also not too
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: too far off from Blade, but I like, justin.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: Long a lot it does. It does feel like I'm
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 2: again I hate to keep using the word grounded, but
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 2: it does feel like a more grounded vampire movie. It's
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 2: not like it's not as over the top with its action,
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 2: at least in the trailer anyway, as something like a Blade.
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 2: It looks like it's more like if you were to
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: expect more of a cop movie kind of thing, kind
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 2: of in those realms, like to the point where at
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 2: first I was wondering if they had encountered like almost
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 2: like a cult of people who believe themselves to be vampires,
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 2: but that vampires are not actually real in that universe.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: It was more like people who had kind of adopted
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: the identity of vampireires and were wearing like like dental
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 2: implants or whatever. To you know, that's almost what it
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 2: felt like to me. And then the more I watched it,
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 2: the more like, No, I think they're actually supposed to
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 2: be vampires.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think it looks fun. So when
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: you say cop drama, you know that doesn't always sound fun.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: Although there are definitely.
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, more of the thrillers like crime thriller or would
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: probably be more accurate, but.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: It also doesn't look like just a complete horrific It's
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 1: got some fun moments in the trailer. I actually very
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 1: much want to watch this one.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 2: Yep. This one comes out January sixteenth, and it does
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 2: look interesting, so yeah, kind of kind of. I'm hopeful
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 2: that it turns out to be a really entertaining movie
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 2: and not just like, oh, we just put the best
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: parts in the trailer. Yeah.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Next, we finally got well, I guess we got
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: a second trailer. We got a trailer for Wake Up
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 1: dead Man. Second one. Like I said, man, I am
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: losing my ability to speak. It's good, we're almost through.
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, it tells us a lot more of the plot.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's okay because it comes out November twenty sixth,
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 2: so like just a few days from now.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks fun. It looks fun.
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 2: It it is.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: The cast is so good, The cast is so good.
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 1: It looks like it's going back closer to the first one,
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 1: where it's a little bit more grounded, because the second
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: one was a little cartoonish. Yeah.
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all the characters in the second one like the
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: first one. And you know, obviously even in the first film,
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: everybody is sort of a caricature or at least a
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 2: character archetype that's been dialed up a bit, right, Like,
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 2: no one apart from maybe the protagonist the maid, felt
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 2: like a real human being. They all maybe Chris Evans.
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 2: Actually Chris Evans' character felt kind of human too, But
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 2: everyone sort of felt like, hey, let's take this one
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 2: feature that a person might have and make that their
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 2: dominant personality. To break that up. But but I would
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 2: say that the second movie was even was that times
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 2: like ten, Yeah.
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 1: This movie probably still has some of that, but like
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 1: I said, it feels it feels a little bit more plausible.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it's also about Andrew Scott and he
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 2: looks he looks like he's having the time of his
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 2: life and I cannot wait.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: It also has Thomas Hayden Church in it, who every
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: time I see him, I'm like, is that the son
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: of James Varney?
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I could say ernest think of him from Wings.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 1: I don't remember Wings. I mean, like I remember Wings,
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: but I don't remember like any of the story.
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Good Old. If you ever, if you ever
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 2: want to watch cheesy nineties sitcom material.
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: Can I say James Varney, It's Jim Varney.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 2: Well, you know James James formally for being really formal. Yeah.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 2: I I am really hopeful. Like I like the first
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 2: Knives Out a lot. I was entertained by the second one,
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 2: but never felt the need to rewatch it. I'm really
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 2: hopeful that the third one kind of is more similar
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 2: to the first than the second. I don't know, there
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 2: was something, but there were several things about the second
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: one that just, uh, I felt were a little cheap
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 2: as far as you know, preserving the mystery for the
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 2: audience that I didn't really care for. Like it almost
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 2: felt like someone is patting themselves on the back for
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 2: being so clever, and that got under my skin a
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 2: little bit. That again, probably just me. It's probably me
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 2: being a stooty snooth head.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: No, no, not at all. It wasn't as good as
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 1: the problem is. The first one was so good.
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and all three of the films have had phenomenal
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 2: and fun actors in it. So although I really wish
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 2: that instead of Ed Norton in the second one they
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 2: got Sam Rockwell, that would have been more fun for me.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: That would have been fun. Speaking of phenomenal actors. Yeah,
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: our final trailer is for starring Dick van Dyke. It's
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: a documentary about Dick van Dyke, who turns one hundred
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: on my birthday this year.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. This is from American Masters PBS. So just quick
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 2: shout out to PBS because between Twelfth Night and.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: This, Oh I did watch Twelfth Night so good, so good, god,
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you watched it?
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, okay, Yeah. Peter Dinklige was simultaneously the funniest
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: and most heartbreaking Malvolio I think I've ever seen.
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do you?
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 2: I mean?
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: I had mentioned after I watched it to Jonathan how
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: like it felt both like everybody was extreme camp until
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: there was like a genuine heartfelt moment and then they
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: all became very real, very like vulnerable people, and it
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: was but it was consistent throughout, so it was a
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 1: great director choice.
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 2: I think. Yeah. It was also great single Leapita and
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 2: Junior acting even when you can't like even for someone
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 2: might like me who can't understand Swahili, their moments where
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 2: they are performing in Swahili were really I mean, it's
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 2: very affecting. And it what a great crowd for that
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 2: particular or I don't know if they recorded on multiple
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 2: performances and then edited it together, but yeah, the crowd
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 2: was fantastic for that show.
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And the staging and the costumes were all
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 1: really nice. Anyhow, PBS putting out some good, good stuff,
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 1: and I think that this documentary on Dick van Dyke
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: will be equally as good. Of course, I am a
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: huge Dick Van.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 2: Dyke fan, me too, and so are tons of actors
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 2: and writers and comedians that you probably know and love.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 2: The trailer is largely a bunch of segments of interviews
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 2: of various people in the entertainment industry talking about how
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 2: influential Dick Van Dyke's work has been and how influential
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 2: the man himself has been two people. Carol Burnett has
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 2: some extremely lovely things to say about.
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: Him, including that he's sexy, which I agree. I thought
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: he was, like I had a crush on Mary Tyler
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: Moore slash Mary Poppins Dick Van Dyke for many years.
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I one of my favorite Dick Van Dyke performances
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 2: I've never actually seen. I've only heard, oh yeah, because
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 2: he was in Bye Bye Bertie, and he was in
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 2: the film version of Bye Bye Bertie. But that is,
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: especially when you get to the second half, almost almost
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 2: not recognizable from the original stage musical, Like they are
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 2: just totally different stories once you get past like the
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 2: first half of it or so. And so I've heard
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 2: from the cast recording, I've heard his performance, but you know,
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 2: it's not like there's if there is a film version,
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 2: like an actual filmed version of that performance, I'm not
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: aware of it. Obviously, that was in an era well
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 2: before video cameras or cell phones or anything like that.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 2: But I loved his performance of Albert Bye Bye Bertie,
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 2: and I just wish I could have seen it in person.
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 1: My favorite performance of his, and this is probably just
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: because of the order in which I watched. His milieu
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: of work is Chitty Chitty Ban Bang.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 2: It's a great, great performance. His dance number in Old
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 2: Bamboo is so much fun. You know. Chitty Chitty Bang
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 2: Bang is a movie that it's kind of like Willie
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: Walka in the Chocolate Factory. It's a movie that I
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 2: love and I think is almost perfect, except that the
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 2: slow songs are so boring to me that I immediately
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 2: want to skip them to get to the next part
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 2: of the story.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 2: I feel that way about that, Like when Hushaby Mountain
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 2: when that not that he does a bad job with it,
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 2: he does a great job with the song, but when
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 2: that song starts, I'm just like, can we get to
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 2: the part where the child catcher shows up? Bleeze?
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I forgot he was in Dick Tracy.
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah yeah. Oh man, Yeah, well you should
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 2: probably forget about Dick Tracy entirely.
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: That watched it in forever, so it was such.
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 2: A huge waste of potential. Yeah, and then we're talking
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: about like we were hoping to do a sequel, like really,
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 2: because he killed off about eighty percent of Dick Tracy's
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 2: rogues gallery.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: I remember enjoying it, but I was also a kid
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 1: like like I was.
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 2: I think the I think the art direction of that
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 2: movie is beyond compare And that's the nicest thing I
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 2: can say about it.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: It did have some good design to it.
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So anyway, this this documentary about Dick van Dyke,
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 2: where it's going to be a big old love fest,
• 1:36:59

• 1:37:04
  Speaker 1: Day before his birthday. Yeah, what a what a lovely
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 1: birthday present. I will be watching it. I will be
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 1: watching it with a big old box of tissues because I.
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 2: Fully watching it get emotional.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I like watching people make a positive impact on
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: the world and on other people. And you know, heartfelt
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 1: stories always move me.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. I am one hund on board with that. And
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 2: with that, we have finally come to the end of
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: our journey for this episode.
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's, you know, per usual a long one. But hey,
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: listen to half now and half next week.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 1: So, Jonathan, if people want to reach out to you,
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: do you have time to tell them how?
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 2: Oh? Sure? Yeah, No, it's easy. So what you'll need
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 2: to do is listen to next week's episode. So here's
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: the tricky part is, we're not recording next week so
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 2: you're going to actually have to tap into a parallel
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 2: universe where we do record next week. That's where you're
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 2: going to hear about how I did a complete one
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 2: eighty on Welcome to darry where I absolutely love the
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 2: subplot that I've been finding so stupid up to this point.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 2: You're gonna discover that both of us completely turned on
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 2: Pluribus because once they started to introduce talking animals, we
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 2: just totally fell off the series. You're also going to
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 2: hear about how we, upon revisiting the trailer to the
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 2: live action Mawana, decide that the cartoon is the bad
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 2: version and the live action one is the one we're
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 2: really excited about. A lot of these things aren't gonna
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 2: make a lot of sense, but what you're gonna have
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 2: to do is listen to that whole episode, and you're
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 2: definitely gonna have to listen to it because you're gonna
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 2: have to provide proof at the end. And at the
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 2: very end of that episode, Ariel is going to give
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 2: you the information on how to actually get out and
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 2: get in touch with us, but it's totally different from
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 2: the way it works in this universe, so you're gonna
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 2: have to pay attention to the email address she gives
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 2: because in that parallel universe, she actually gives out my
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 2: own personal email at the end of every episode, and
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 2: no matter what I do, I can't stop her. So
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 2: listen for that and then send an email that will
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 2: get to me. Prove that you listen to the episode,
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 2: give me some details, and then ask your question and
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 2: I'll get right back to you.
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 1: Dang, I thought I was doing that in this universe.
• 1:39:26
