Movies That Feel Like Christmas (But Aren’t) & Why We Rewatch Them Every Year · My Third Place Pod

• 0:00
  Welcome back to the M3P podcast, and welcome to the first week of
• 0:02
  December, AKA the time of year when the air gets colder, the
• 0:06
  movies get cheesier, and Mariah Carey responds from her royal
• 0:10
  cryo chamber like a Final Fantasy summon.
• 0:16
  Shaking her your head already, man.
• 0:20
  She hit the high note, the tree lit up, and boom, the season
• 0:24
  officially started. We are done talking Turkey.
• 0:28
  No more soldier flashbacks. No more leftovers with the
• 0:30
  structural integrity of a seven layer dip at a 90s blockbuster
• 0:33
  sleepover. Now we shift over into pure
• 0:39
  December nostalgia. The era of action Christmas
• 0:42
  movies, chaotic mom memories, snow day marathons, and
• 0:47
  soundtracks that carry the entire 2000's.
• 0:49
  The kind of December where you're sipping hot cocoa so
• 0:53
  thick it could patch drywall and praying the Wi-Fi doesn't go out
• 0:57
  when the snowstorm hits because nothing hurts like buffering
• 1:00
  during the final battle scene. Yeah, that just brought up
• 1:06
  memories from last week. Fucking 8 hours of no Wi-Fi And
• 1:14
  yeah. So quite good.
• 1:15
  Day This is the season when the movies that raises crawl out of
• 1:20
  the VHS wall like they've been waiting all year to tagged back
• 1:23
  in Jingle All the Way, reminding us about the trauma of last
• 1:26
  minute toy hunts with Toys-R-Us looked like a war zone.
• 1:31
  The Santa Claus giving us the warm fuzzy version of accidental
• 1:33
  body of horror. Jim Carrey's Grinch serving
• 1:37
  early 2000s emo energy was split dye green fur and every TV
• 1:41
  network running Die Hard, Batman Returns and Lethal Weapon like
• 1:45
  it's their entire personality. Liana's in the building and or
• 1:51
  my hey Liana. And for my 90s in Y2K babies is
• 1:55
  also the season of tamales steaming on every kitchen
• 1:58
  counter, the smell of Simon everything, those giant
• 2:01
  inflatable snowmen that never stayed standing, and that moment
• 2:06
  when the Blizzard knocked out the power but you were
• 2:08
  determined to finish your VHS tape by Ken Light like it was a
• 2:11
  sacred mission. And if you're new here every
• 2:16
  week we pull up a chair in our cozy corner of the Internet and
• 2:18
  dive into the all the things we love and the things that shaped
• 2:20
  us. We breakdown movies and TV shows
• 2:22
  from comfort. We Rochester brand new chaos.
• 2:24
  We crack open Pokémon halls like it's 99 again, flipped your
• 2:28
  comic books hot off new comic book day and jump into Marvel
• 2:31
  rivals, stock builds, lore and those.
• 2:33
  Why was that so hard to match it?
• 2:35
  We hit wrestling music fandom and the everyday stories that
• 2:38
  make life weird and wonderful. It's part review show, part
• 2:42
  fandom hangout, part diary of everyday adventures, all wrapped
• 2:47
  in a ribbon of pure Nineties 2000 nostalgia.
• 2:51
  Just sink a Friday night at Blockbuster, a fresh pack of
• 2:54
  Pokémon cards, the Snow Day soundtrack playing faintly in
• 2:58
  the background, and your mom yelling at you to put on a
• 3:01
  jacket even though you're already wearing 2.
• 3:04
  So whether you're watching live and chat listening on the go,
• 3:07
  welcome to the M3P vibe, where community, creativity and
• 3:09
  memories collide every single week.
• 3:13
  And for the day one listeners, you didn't know what we're
• 3:15
  about. So let me tell you what we've
• 3:17
  got cooking today on today's sleigh ride through movies and
• 3:21
  madness, because this episode is full of bench worthy chaos.
• 3:25
  We got pod decks, Thanksgiving wrap up and war games warm up
• 3:28
  questions before December Chaos hits news, Twitter wants to
• 3:34
  bring back Vine new box office champion and Netflix steps up to
• 3:37
  buy Warner Brothers toys that came out this week 30 years ago.
• 3:42
  The throwbacks, the classics, the ones your cousin stole.
• 3:45
  We got the Pokedex update, more cards, the divine to grow.
• 3:49
  Did the duplicates grow? Always gaming news.
• 3:53
  We have Hitman World of Assassin on VR2M number Slim Shady
• 3:58
  gameplay. Got to watch somebody play it.
• 4:03
  I didn't play it, but I got what?
• 4:04
  Watch somebody play it and they are cool.
• 4:07
  Sometimes even assassins fight themselves.
• 4:09
  We got the Marvel Rivals anniversary celebration.
• 4:12
  What went down to Times Square? We'll tell you.
• 4:16
  So what's coming to Netflix this week and what's leaving?
• 4:19
  Stranger Things Season 5 Part 1? Did you watch it?
• 4:23
  Yes, indeed. All right, are reacting to the
• 4:26
  1st 4 episodes of the final season and movies that feel like
• 4:29
  Christmas movies but technically aren't the holiday hill we're
• 4:33
  willing to die on. And I'm not flying solo.
• 4:37
  Oh no, I'm joined by a man who treats Christmas like an action
• 4:42
  movie. The dude who walks into holiday
• 4:45
  season like John Mcclane with a candy cane holster.
• 4:51
  Greg. The North Pole knockout.
• 4:54
  The mistletoe menace. The Yuletide yarder is in the
• 4:57
  studio. What's going on, brother?
• 4:59
  Hey brother, what's going down? What's?
• 5:01
  Going you don't have to tell me what's going down.

  Absolutely. Absolutely, let's go.
• 6:54
  We like to kick things off with a little ice breaker from our
• 6:57
  projects, our sacred stack of random questions, chaos prompts,
• 7:00
  and why would anyone ask? This Conversation starters is
• 7:03
  our version of passing notes in class or flipping through a
• 7:06
  Tiger Beatmat quiz while waiting for your hot cocoa pop Tart to
• 7:09
  cool down. But now we've leveled it up.
• 7:14
  This isn't your just our warm up anymore.
• 7:17
  It's yours too. Welcome to the project Questions
• 7:19
  of the Week mashup where we pull a question card, toss it into
• 7:22
  the digital snowstorm of Instagram, TikTok thread, Blue
• 7:25
  Sky, YouTube and Spotify, and let the entire Entropy community
• 7:29
  cook your takes, your memories, your opinions.
• 7:33
  We read them, react to them, celebrate them, and occasionally
• 7:35
  wonder why we gave you this much power.
• 7:38
  It's true, but that's the fun. It's a giant group chat where we
• 7:42
  all accidentally over share and then just keep going like
• 7:44
  nothing happened. Just ignore it.
• 7:47
  It's weird, just like a little kiss.
• 7:51
  Just ignore it because of because just ignore it.
• 7:54
  Just ignore it. So buckle up.
• 7:56
  Our answers are just the beginning.
• 7:58
  Yours are what make this segment legendary.
• 8:00
  All right, what was your win for the week?
• 8:05
  Before we go, before we move forward, Yeah, Liana said.

• 8:55
  thing with the Pokedex. I finally finished the Pokedex.

  What else I kind of forgot what if my win for the week was so

• 24:29
  environment. No, not like that.

  Like my friends as. Well, so, you know, going to my
• 24:43
  friend's house and the mom always cleaning and cooking and
• 24:47

• 25:22
  saw like, hey, so like you're evil right again.
• 25:25
  OK. Like like, hey, how come we
• 25:29
  never met? Like, I don't know, probably
• 25:32

• 25:36
  that. And my friend told me him about
• 25:41
  it. Like they, the family's been
• 25:43
  telling him all about it because like, oh, OK, you know, like the

  sister live right next door. It was like a little duplex.
• 26:07
  So like, the husband there was like, you know, being all nice

  situation that it is like every time they see me, it's like,
• 26:31

• 26:33
  on at home. If you ever need to talk, you
• 26:35
  can come to us. You know, and I did, I have.
• 26:38
  And I was like, OK, so that was like not normal.
• 26:44
  Where I was assumed that that, you know, this is not normal at
• 26:48
  all. And I was like, this is normal.
• 26:51
  Where like other fathers would be like, no, he can't be here or
• 26:54
  else I start, you know, yelling at you and screaming at you and
• 26:58
  being all fucking paranoid and shit to where now I'm just like,
• 27:01
  oh, they're being pretty protective.
• 27:03
  OK, Thanks a lot for that. Appreciate it because, you know,
• 27:08
  even now and reaching out to those kids to now adults and
• 27:13
  telling me like, yeah, dude, my dialect, you don't worry about
• 27:17

• 27:22
  How's everything? I love how you turned out to be.
• 27:24
  I was like, yes, thanks. Appreciate that.
• 27:26
  So yeah, it was a rough childhood, rough environment.
• 27:29
  Out, yeah. Yeah, that kind of show today is
• 27:40
  that kind of episode. It's like, oh, the very special
• 27:42
  episode evil. Take us to talk about his
• 27:44
  childhood and how you grew up and food stamps and all that
• 27:47
  shit. Yeah.
• 27:50
  That's real. Food stamps in the vending
• 27:51
  machine and vending machine. Real.
• 27:53
  That's real shit. No, none of that will ever
• 27:55
  happen again to anybody because you know, they're smart as fuck.
• 27:58
  And I'm just like a child thinking like, hey, food stamp
• 28:02
  on the vending machine. They don't see, they don't do
• 28:05
  coupons no more they. Don't do.
• 28:09
  OK, that's good. Then other people also said
• 28:15
  Alexandria. A friend of ours, when I was in
• 28:16
  elementary school, my mom and I would drive to Orcas and pick a
• 28:19
  fruit off the trees. Looking back, I realized that
• 28:22
  technically stealing is it. Not really.
• 28:27
  It's just stealing. I mean unless you go to a
• 28:31
  orchard where they sell it. Like, yeah, that's fine, yeah.
• 28:35
  That's sweet, Lala Gunning says herself.
• 28:43
  She was not normal, Anastasia Lee says.
• 28:48
  I used to bring my parents their bong, like in the 1980s when
• 28:52
  that wasn't allowed. I mentioned it to my teacher
• 28:54
  once and she promptly told me that not to use that in my
• 28:56
  family time paragraph. I also knew how to take out the
• 29:00
  stems and seeds from the weed. I had a strange childhood and
• 29:02
  could give you tons. And now I want to know war.
• 29:06
  Who's gonna know? Who's gonna know?
• 29:11
  But yeah. And then some.
• 29:12
  I think someone else went in there and told her, like, that's
• 29:15
  not normal. It's like, yeah, we know.
• 29:17
  Thanks for telling me. It's like it was for me at the
• 29:20
  time. But you know, Mellor says.
• 29:23
  I used to think that walking around military base and
• 29:25
  crossing over a highway was normal because we did it all
• 29:27
  summer long. But sinking back, we could have
• 29:29
  been hit by a car going 50 miles.
• 29:33
  It is ma'am sot sledding down, Jane says.
• 29:37
  Slot sledding down the road in the dark without any reflex on
• 29:39
  us was normal. As a kid, me, adult me realized
• 29:42
  we could have been hit by cars because our sledding speed was
• 29:44
  too fast and we wouldn't be able to stop in time.
• 29:47
  We didn't. We threw caution to the wind.
• 29:50
  Dude, we didn't know. Like, you know, hey, watch me
• 29:55
  fly off the jump top of the fucking roof, elbow drop one of
• 30:01
  my best friends on the fucking little mattress.
• 30:05
  Yeah, we, we, we, we, we, we lived, we lived.
• 30:09
  We. Lived we?
• 30:11
  Lived. We lived.
• 30:13
  We didn't care. We fucking.
• 30:14
  I jumped off a fucking couch and broke my fucking frayed my shit
• 30:21
  and without fear and like look mom, I'm jumping off the couch
• 30:26
  with a Cape on and doing this shit on little the the
• 30:31
  wrestling. Button.
• 30:32
  Yeah, yeah. Watch him and Randy Savage
• 30:34
  style. And then it happened and my
• 30:37
  mom's cooking and then she here and she's like, Oh my God.
• 30:43
  Like I heard. Oh, fuck.
• 30:46
  God damn it can't take you anywhere, man.
• 30:53
  I'm like, yeah, I know dead people, Book says.
• 30:57
  When I was a kid, I used to force my friends to play Lego
• 31:00
  and we would each sort through the piles looking for cool
• 31:03
  pieces to make shops. Anyways, I'm now 36, an autistic
• 31:06
  entrepreneur, which, by the way, I love how he says Lego, not
• 31:14
  Lego. Yeah, that's how you're supposed
• 31:19
  to say. I will forever.
• 31:22
  I will forever mention that. Like, I love how people say
• 31:26
  Legos. I hate that.
• 31:28
  Once again, Once again, 007 undercover diva says I was
• 31:34
  smarter than the average kid. I knew those were beer bottles
• 31:37
  hung on the ceiling were straight hippie chick.
• 31:46
  What time is it? OK, like I said, we maybe Nah,
• 31:53
  because then I don't want to be rude.
• 31:56
  I don't mean, you know, because then we wouldn't have her
• 31:59
  commenting. So like, you know, just ignore
• 32:07
  it. Just ignore it.
• 32:12
  We're gonna ignore it. We're gonna ignore it.
• 32:16
  Fucking hell. Funny.
• 32:20
  It's funny too. Oh my God, I what was this?
• 32:29
  Normal? Next question was something you
• 32:33
  agree that you miss a lot of. Gunning says riding bike and
• 32:37
  jumping rope. See.
• 32:38
  Little redhead says playing outside until the streetlights
• 32:40
  came on. The whole neighborhood went on a
• 32:42
  trip together. I remember being on by a lake
• 32:44
  one time, a new neighbor moved to the neighbor and brought big
• 32:47
  goods to every neighbor. You had never had to question
• 32:49
  either. Oh hell yeah, you never had to
• 32:51
  question anything, MENA says. I would say being able to sleep
• 32:55
  all night in one position, not wake up with my back.
• 32:57
  Hurting. No shit.
• 32:58
  Sure, I agree. Prison shy says prison size shy
• 33:07
  says Just hanging out with my friends before the streetlights
• 33:09
  came on. Then we would all sneak back out
• 33:10
  and meet under the streetlight and just like a cut up and
• 33:13
  having fun. Miss those things, I fuck yeah.
• 33:16
  Sneak back out all right. Fucking 5 more minutes more.
• 33:22
  No get back in here. You ever seen Cheaper by the
• 33:31
  Dozen? Yeah.
• 33:33
  So there's a scene where they obviously they moved to Chicago.
• 33:36
  And everything. And that's where I was just
• 33:39
  like, Nah, that's bullshit. They're fucking all the kids
• 33:44
  leave their bikes and their fucking toys outside, right?
• 33:48
  So I'm just like, I paused and I was like that.
• 33:52
  What year was this? 2003 does is not flying.
• 33:54
  You can't leave your shit out there like that.
• 33:58
  People fucking especially. Out here.
• 33:59
  Fuck bullshit that movie that didn't.
• 34:07
  Bike out on bikes would've been gone.
• 34:11
  Fucking the next day is like mom, dad, somebody stole my
• 34:14
  bike. Everybody's bikes, 12 bikes or
• 34:18
  fucking tricycles, whatever the fuck they were.
• 34:20
  Yeah, they were they were been gone by now.
• 34:24
  But yeah, that would that's me. That's what I missed for sure.
• 34:28
  It's just like fucking he that I grew just, you know, being
• 34:36
  outside and everything and I was like 2020 happened.
• 34:41
  I just want to be inside. I just want to do this.
• 34:43
  I just want to do that. I still love gaming.
• 34:47
  The the thing that I grew was cartoons because I know they're
• 34:55
  from the 80s and I love that the fact that some of them are just
• 34:58
  like, Oh my God, these are so nostalgic, but the same time,
• 35:02
  these are so fucking nostalgic. Oh my God, why are they taking
• 35:05
  so forever for this? Why is these so?
• 35:08
  Cheesy. And then you're watching friggin
• 35:11
  X-Men 97 and I'm just like, oh, why do I like this better?
• 35:20
  So yeah, that's something that I outgrew, that I miss playing
• 35:24
  with toys, the wrestling, those guys up there wrestling.
• 35:29
  I was. Like I used to miss that.
• 35:32
  I used to fucking love and doing all that shit.

• 36:22
  What? The cartoons?
• 36:24
  The cartoons, Yeah. And 'cause they got the channel
• 36:27

• 36:30
  Oh, nice. But what I do make make a lie at
• 36:37
  being able to come home, flip on the cable and go on MTV.
• 36:46
  I just miss it, you know? And I feel it's a shame that we
• 36:52
  live in a world now where you just can't do that, you know
• 36:57
  what I'm saying? Yes, we got Music Choice and all
• 37:00

• 39:14
  Time, she tells me, come here. I just hold my face like.
• 39:28
  Yeah. I love all these questions and
• 39:37
  like the chat was right the other night when I was like I
• 39:40
  went through them like so it's going to be like an hour of you
• 39:43
  guys just going over these questions.
• 39:45
  Like what do you mean? I thought it was going to be
• 39:46
  like 1020 minutes or no. This is how we make an episode
• 39:52
  where this is how we make. An episode all.
• 39:55
  Right. Yeah.
• 39:57
  Ready for the news? Yeah.
• 39:59
  Ready for the news, ready to find out some stuff because
• 40:03
  we're only stuck in the past. We've got our new segment for
• 40:06
  the first time. Listener, This is where we talk
• 40:07
  about what's going on in the world right now.
• 40:09
  Entertainment, culture, tech life, whatever's trending weird
• 40:12
  or we're talking about techcrunch.com.
• 40:15
  A project to bring so reported that a project to bring back
• 40:18
  Vines 6 second looping videos is launching with Twitter Co
• 40:21
  founder Jack Dorothy's backing on Thursday a new app called the
• 40:26
  Vine. They're going to have to change
• 40:29
  that because there are a lot of apps called Divine and then
• 40:32
  there's there's that one person called Divine, they're called
• 40:40
  Divine. Divine will give access to more
• 40:43
  than 100,000 archive Vine videos restored from an older backup
• 40:46
  that was created before Vine shut down.
• 40:48
  The app won't just as this as a walk down memory lane, it will
• 40:51
  also allow users to create profiles and upload their own
• 40:54
  new Vine videos. However, unlike on traditional
• 40:58
  social media where a icon is often half as we labeled, Divine
• 41:02
  will flag suspected generated AI content and prevent it from
• 41:05
  being posted. I knew you'd love that.
• 41:11
  Yeah, we don't. Like that?
• 41:16
  Divine Creation was financed by Jack Dorsey's nonprofit and
• 41:18
  Other stuff. Formed in May 2025.
• 41:20
  The new effort is focused on funding experimental Open for
• 41:23
  source projects and other tools to have the potential to
• 41:25
  transform the social media landscape to build divine.
• 41:29
  Even Henshaw Platt and every Twitter employee and member of
• 41:33
  other stuff explored Divine archive after Twitter announced
• 41:36
  it was shutting down the short video app in 2016.
• 41:38
  Is videos were backed up by a group called the Archive team.
• 41:41
  This community archive product not affiliate with archive.org,
• 41:44
  but it's rather collected that works together to save it in
• 41:46
  their websites that are major being lost.
• 41:50
  So yeah, I love that we have about 150,000 to 200,000 of
• 41:55
  videos from about 60,000 of the creators, he noted, adding that
• 42:00
  originally Vine had a couple million users and a few million
• 42:03
  creators. By comparison, buying creators
• 42:05
  who still own the copyright to their work can send the Vine of
• 42:07
  DMCA takedown request they want their files removed, or they can
• 42:10
  verify their account holder by demonstrating that they still in
• 42:14
  possession of the social media account they were originally
• 42:16
  listed in their find bio. This process is an automated
• 42:19
  though, so there could be a delay in the large number of
• 42:21
  creators try to do that at once. Hell yeah, bring it back.
• 42:28
  Like I don't know the names of the videos, but you know the.
• 42:33
  Video. Like because they were 6 seconds
• 42:38
  and then left on Curry. Like when you join TikTok, like
• 42:42
  you do realize we're like the six second people, right?
• 42:46
  Like we don't make videos longer than 30 seconds.
• 42:49
  Like we don't have the attention span, but we did.
• 42:53
  Now obviously there's damn Daniel do it for divine.
• 43:01
  I'm not going to do it. Do it for divine.
• 43:02
  I'm not going to do it do it for divine.
• 43:04
  OK, so hell yeah, if you're going to bring by back, do it
• 43:10
  for Divine. Yeah.
• 43:13
  Do it for divine divine. I'm like, they would been great
• 43:18
  if they called it divine. But like, yeah, that's cheesy,
• 43:24
  but you also know the people that are the people, the fucking
• 43:28
  creators. You don't know their name, but
• 43:31
  you know the creators. Do you know their faces?
• 43:33
  Like I've seen them before and like, oh, and then I've seen
• 43:36
  them in movies too. It's like, oh, say one guy from
• 43:38
  Vine back in the day. So yeah, if they're gonna bring
• 43:43
  it back, hell yeah, I fucking go over there too and create like 6
• 43:46
  second videos. So there's like non nonsense
• 43:50

  The Netflix team. The deal has a total enterprise
• 45:38
  value including depth of approximately 82.7.
• 45:41
  Billion dollars an. Equity value of 72 billion.
• 45:44
  The company said. The announcement of Netflix deal
• 45:46
  to buy the Warner Brothers streaming and studio business
• 45:48
  came after a weeks long beating war that pitted a streaming
• 45:51
  giant against David Ellison's Paramount, Skydance and Comcast.
• 45:54
  I'm so glad they beat Paramount because imagine the shit.
• 45:58
  Imagine that shit. Yeah.
• 46:00
  They deleted fucking MTV. Yeah, they would get rid.
• 46:03
  They would have got rid of a bunch of shit for real.
• 46:06
  I. Was like Warner.
• 46:07
  Brothers. Yeah, you.
• 46:08
  Guys into the comic books let's. Delete.
• 46:10
  Yeah, yeah. Fuck no.
• 46:14
  What are you doing? I.
• 46:18
  Hated that shit. News broke Thursday evening that
• 46:21
  Netflix had entered into exclusive negotiation with WBD
• 46:23
  on a deal for Warner Brothers and HBO Max Netflix said it
• 46:27
  respects to maintaining Warner Brothers current operations and
• 46:29
  build on its strengths, including theatrical release for
• 46:32
  films. Currently, Warner Brothers has
• 46:34
  deals to release its film in cinemas to 2029.
• 46:36
  In the near term, Netflix signaled it would keep HBO Max
• 46:40
  as a discrete service. Well, also titled the edition of
• 46:43
  HBO and HBO Max Continent is lineup.
• 46:45
  By adding the deep film and TV libraries and HBO and HBO Max
• 46:49
  programming, Netflix members will have more high quality
• 46:52
  titles from which to choose. Oh, I got some shit more shit to
• 46:56
  say about that. The company said this also
• 46:58
  allows Netflix optimize its plan for consumers, enhancing viewing
• 47:01
  options and expanding access to content.
• 47:04
  Wait till you find out what's leaving Netflix.
• 47:06
  Later on. Because of this bullshit.
• 47:11
  Oh, like let's let's cut some of these chose away and then give
• 47:15
  them the money, Yeah. Fuck, it's gonna be bad.
• 47:19
  It's gonna be bad. Oh, it's.
• 47:23
  Already bad. Disney is winning.
• 47:27
  That's all I'm saying. And finally there's a new box
• 47:33
  office champion who finally the throne Avengers end game.
• 47:36
  You're ready for this. This comes from giant freaking
• 47:41
  robot Before the modern era superhero fatigue, Avengers end
• 47:44
  game stabs itself as one of the most successful films in
• 47:46
  Hollywood's history. Among other achievements, it's
• 47:49
  earned 79 million in his first day in China, a record that went
• 47:52
  unbeaten for many years. However, the marble juggernauts
• 47:56
  Far East record just got shattered by Zootopia 2, which
• 48:04
  earned more than 100 million in his first day of release.
• 48:06
  That's crazy. So Zootopia Key 2 is now the new
• 48:12
  box office king, the sequel that earned more than 100 million in
• 48:15
  China in a single day. Incidentally, the film's box
• 48:17
  office success in China is not a fluke.
• 48:19
  It turns out that the Topia 2 is killing in theaters around the
• 48:22
  world as well, on track to become the most successful film
• 48:25
  of the entire year, one that will very easily clear a billion
• 48:28
  dollars at the box office before all is said and done.
• 48:31
  Utopia 2 owes at least some of its success to the fact that it
• 48:34
  was released the day before Thanksgiving, making it the go
• 48:36
  to movie for families over the long weekend.
• 48:38
  So far, the sequel has earned 556,000,000 worldwide, making it
• 48:44
  the most successful extended opening week in the movie ever.
• 48:46
  Previously, that record was held by Super Mario Brothers, which
• 48:49
  earned A relatively puny 378 million.
• 48:54
  And also breaking news coming from Marvel Studios.
• 48:58
  Just last night they said, hold our beer.
• 49:01
  Avengers End Game is back in theaters September to 2020. 20.
• 49:05
  Next year and it will be a direct sequel to Doomsday.
• 49:16
  Yeah, doomsday will start, the end game ended, which would be
• 49:22
  fucking the same. So like like, you know, like,
• 49:30
  hey, 3 movies that are coming out next year.
• 49:34
  So Spider Man, a brand? New day.
• 49:38
  And July in September and game again, because they also want to
• 49:45
  show like the director's cut. So it's gonna be long.
• 49:50
  It's gonna be fucking longer. And.
• 49:54
  And I and I asked around like, hey, you know, end game.
• 49:57
  Do you want to watch it? Do I want to watch Tony Stark
• 50:00
  die again? Well, I don't watched it.
• 50:07
  Well, I watched it about 6 times since he since that's not at the
• 50:11
  theater so why not right? And then and then watching it
• 50:19
  here on Twitter. And like with the crowd reaction
• 50:22
  and every time I hear that whole thing where on your left by
• 50:27
  Falcon, I'm just like fucking goosebumps, man.
• 50:31
  Every that whole scene right there and up to where he says.
• 50:35
  Avengers. Grabs the hammer, assemble.
• 50:39
  No, I did not want to watch Tony die again.
• 50:46
  So here's what I think. Cuz then they're gonna have like
• 50:49
  a after credit scene on end which will directly tie into
• 50:55
  Doom so they're adding more shit to it.
• 50:58
  It's like they're George Lucas in the entire.
• 51:01
  Yeah. Basically, oh, let's add this,
• 51:04
  let's add our in deleted scenes because we want to make more
• 51:07
  money off of this and like, beat out Zootopia.
• 51:10
  Yeah, so here's my theory. Fucking Tony Stark dies and the
• 51:20
  end, the end game after credit scene is Tony Stark waking up,
• 51:24
  but it's not Tony Stark, it's Doctor John Bam.
• 51:30
  So like pissed me off too, because it's like, what if this
• 51:35
  shit is real? And then we go into Doomsday and
• 51:38
  it's like, you know, the, the, that war scene that happened
• 51:43
  right there and bam, we get to doomsday and the whole end game
• 51:51
  scene happening and then he dies and then the screen himself goes
• 51:54
  black. And then we we get he wakes up
• 51:59
  and like, you know, he's still a fucking.
• 52:01
  Villain from that. Barrier, but he's in Fantastic
• 52:06
  Four, four steps. Dang, yeah.
• 52:09
  Right there that that's my theory.
• 52:12
  I'll go with that. Like what are you saying you
• 52:21
  would you watch it again when you go and?
• 52:22
  Watch it. I think, you know, I actually
• 52:25
  would though. I actually would just to see
• 52:32
  this year going to be a director's cut.
• 52:33
  I got to see this shit on screen.
• 52:36
  Like I'm not waiting for no digital for this.
• 52:39
  And I got I got to go to theater and see this shit.
• 52:41
  I want to see how this shit is going to hang out.
• 52:48
  Yeah, that'd be great, Dad. Like, I can't.
• 52:52
  Yeah. 2026, you go watch it. Yeah, Minister.
• 52:57
  She'll go watch it. Lana's going to go watch it.
• 52:59
  Obviously, Toys that came out this weekend 30 years ago.
• 53:07
  The throwbacks, the classics, the ones your cousins stole.
• 53:09
  Let's rewind to exactly 3 decades ago and check out what
• 53:12
  toys hit the shelves this weekend.
• 53:13
  The holiday season of 95. The ones we begged for, the ones
• 53:17
  we fought over, the ones we lost under the couch cushions, and
• 53:21

  just put them in this one and just like you know, organize

  down on our controllers consoles and live stream this week.
• 1:00:52
  This is where we the gameplay gets petty, then the stories
• 1:00:54
  gets chaotic and the streams get way more unhinged than any of us
• 1:00:57
  planned. If you ever rage quit a boss
• 1:00:59

• 1:01:03

  Awesome. So they usually have celebrities
• 1:01:24
  in there where he has to kill. Celebrities.
• 1:01:27
  Fucking weird as fuck. I love it.
• 1:01:29
  So they had an Eminem versus Slim Shady where Eminem hires
• 1:01:33
  Hitman to kill Slim. Shady.
• 1:01:36
  So like, I'm not going to go through it, but same time I
• 1:01:40
  watched a video of the 26 mini video of, you know, doing the
• 1:01:44
  gameplay, doing the walkthrough and everything and like it's so
• 1:01:48
  fun. He just like walks around and
• 1:01:54
  you know, checks out the place, scopes out the place and it's
• 1:02:00
  that mom's spaghetti and he's using.
• 1:02:04
  There's another, there's other videos too.
• 1:02:06
  There's another video of 10 Ways to kill Slim.
• 1:02:08
  Shady. But this one three can Eminem
• 1:02:12
  grab Slim Shady from behind? Just takes him in there and
• 1:02:14
  beats his ass and which is fucking hilarious and it's like
• 1:02:21
  it this guy did it in like 25 minutes.

  it's Slim Shady dying and stuff and it's the cover up and the
• 1:02:34
  album from last. Year day.

• 1:02:40
  know, show this last year when like you were trying to hype
• 1:02:44
  your. Album.
• 1:02:47
  Like now it worked 10 different ways to kill Slim Shady.
• 1:02:52
  There was one where he just straight up went up to him and
• 1:02:54
  shot him in the face. Had to run out of here.
• 1:02:59
  He used mom spaghetti to kill him, poison him.
• 1:03:04
  He was a DJ and threw a bomb in there that.

  Everything. And I'm streaming it.
• 1:04:43
  I'm playing and playing it and streaming it.
• 1:04:44
  And then we get to 0 and it's like, that's it.
• 1:04:51
  I thought we're gonna get something else, right?
• 1:04:53
  It became like a Spotify rap. It became like Marvel Rivals
• 1:04:57
  Rewind and shit. I was just like, OK, and then
• 1:05:00
  you get like 200 credits, blue units, and I'm just like, OK,
• 1:05:06
  this is very underwhelming. I saw something else was going
• 1:05:09
  to happen and I'm just like, oh, this is just like a fun little
• 1:05:12
  thing to do. OK, that's fine.
• 1:05:15
  If you're going to do more countdowns like that, hopefully
• 1:05:18
  you'll do have one like a Christmas tree for Christmas,
• 1:05:21
  the middle of Times Square or the countdown for the New Year's
• 1:05:26
  Eve party and more shit like that.
• 1:05:29
  You know, they showed clips of streamers, just streamers and
• 1:05:38
  influencers saying how much they fucking love Marvel Rivals.
• 1:05:44
  At the same time you had players on using Iron Man up there
• 1:05:51
  trying to shoot a because they didn't give a fuck about like
• 1:05:56
  Marvel Rivals came out on Twitter and said like send us
• 1:06:00
  videos of you telling us what you like about, you know, Marvel
• 1:06:05
  Rivals and stuff. So everybody assumed that we
• 1:06:09
  would get video game players, gamers from the community to do
• 1:06:15
  it. No, instead they got streamers,
• 1:06:18
  they got influencers, they got fucking the developers showing
• 1:06:22
  the videos, cosplayers as well, showing just videos up there.
• 1:06:25
  And I'm like, so it just didn't matter if we sent it.
• 1:06:28
  Just they're just going to choose these months.
• 1:06:30
  OK, nothing against them. I like some of them, but same
• 1:06:35
  time like don't lie to us, you know, don't, don't fucking tell
• 1:06:39
  us. Hey, we're going to put your
• 1:06:42
  video up there. No, you're going to put videos
• 1:06:44
  of the influencers and all those fucking people down there.
• 1:06:48
  So you had all the Iron Man up there, a bunch of people up
• 1:06:51
  there shooting at the screen, like get this shit off fucking
• 1:06:55
  here because they didn't want to see it.
• 1:06:58
  There's like, we just want to be here to.
• 1:07:00
  Have fun. My boy Roderick was there, Liana
• 1:07:06
  was there, they were all having fun there.
• 1:07:09
  And I guess Jeff the last fucking shark was like, you
• 1:07:13
  know, we were like fucking watching the screen, sitting
• 1:07:18
  down, everything. And here comes Jeff doing his
• 1:07:20
  all and fucking swallowing people and taking them
• 1:07:22
  somewhere. I'm like, bro, what the fuck are
• 1:07:28
  you doing? Stop, stop doing this bullshit.
• 1:07:31
  And like, that's what everybody on TikTok was saying.
• 1:07:33
  It's like, yeah, fucking Jeff, fucking Jeff, fucking Jeff.
• 1:07:36
  It's like fuck Jeff. Like 5 * a week Christmas
• 1:07:41
  episode, you share your holiday plans.
• 1:07:45
  So that was the whole point. I'm just like, it was a bit
• 1:07:48
  underwhelming, but whatever, it was fine.
• 1:07:51

• 1:11:46
  Netflix Engagement report suggesting it picked up 64.7
• 1:11:51
  million views from 2023 through mid 2025.

  you're gonna get rid of it. That's crazy.
• 1:12:04
  They need the money in order to bankroll the entire WB.
• 1:12:09
  That they. Just bought that's some
• 1:12:12
  bullshit. We need to make room for the DC

  rid of Arrow and everything else that later comes in the years
• 1:12:24
  because, you know, whatever. And now the big one, Stranger
• 1:12:31
  Things season 5, the final season, the Hawkings end game.
• 1:12:34
  The moment we realize these kids are now adults with mortgages.

• 1:12:41
  emotional trauma on Netflix about to put us through

  Beckner's back 11 angsty Will's hair finally found justice, and
• 1:12:47
  you already know they're going to hit us with a final finale

• 1:14:44
  like the bullies need to get their acid kicked.

  And if you've rushed that, like, no, you better not rush that.
• 1:14:51
  You better not give us that in the final episode.
• 1:14:53
  Do it to us. Do it.
• 1:14:54
  Give it to us now. Like episode 5-6 or seven, Not
• 1:15:00
  in the fucking finale, Episode 4, That whole one shot of just
• 1:15:09
  damn running around during like a little war scene that was
• 1:15:13
  there and taking one shot and then just like, oh, I love this.
• 1:15:22
  And I like have they've never done that before?
• 1:15:27
  And I'm just like this fucking awesome.
• 1:15:28
  I love it. Derek is a fucking asshole.

  I don't give a fucking little fucking Dick head.
• 1:15:36
  But then he re redeemed himself. No, he's still a fucking
• 1:15:39
  asshole. And then will finally does his
• 1:15:46
  thing and I'm just like hell yeah, like he finally did his
• 1:15:51
  thing. Good shit.
• 1:15:54
  Goosebumps all over of obviously the mom like trying to protect
• 1:16:00
  her chit and I'm just like how you to protect that fucking old
• 1:16:03
  man right there. Again, felt like fucking Jason,
• 1:16:08
  not Jason. Michael Myers in Rob Zombie
• 1:16:12
  movie when he's at the fucking asylum and like y'all
• 1:16:19
  motherfuckers let this motherfucker have like do
• 1:16:22
  weights and everything and he can't get out.
• 1:16:25
  What kind of shit is? That.
• 1:16:28
  You know, like that's Will right there.
• 1:16:30
  He looks like he's fucking built like a fucking and he's still
• 1:16:35
  being coddled and I'm like, bro, leave that boy alone.
• 1:16:39
  He's a man now. He's.
• 1:16:40
  Like, yeah. OK.
• 1:16:47
  Oh dude, what's her face? The girl?
• 1:16:50
  The redhead? Like if.
• 1:16:53
  Yeah, I for sure. If this was ever in the movie
• 1:16:56
  theaters, that's the part where people would be screaming their
• 1:16:59
  asses. Yeah.
• 1:17:00
  That she's back again, again running up the hill just pissed
• 1:17:06
  me off. Or just like fucking this song
• 1:17:10
  again. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:17:11
  And then they had Tiffany, like, I think we're alone now, like.
• 1:17:17
  Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Umbrella Academy did it better.
• 1:17:22
  But OK, no, they don't have them classics in there, so you know.
• 1:17:26
  Yeah, of course, but that last final scene of just Will just
• 1:17:32
  fucking bleeding and shit is like, come happy motherfucker.
• 1:17:36
  I was like, I wish Vecna would have seen that.
• 1:17:37
  Like, oh. We got to see 11th Sister.
• 1:17:48
  Right. Season 2 because I totally.
• 1:17:54
  Forgot. Yeah, me too.
• 1:17:56
  Like you had nothing, but just like, all right, just just bring
• 1:18:01
  that girl back from season 2. Like that sucks.
• 1:18:06
  You don't get to talk about this until now.
• 1:18:09
  Like, come on, you could have done like stories, you decided
• 1:18:14
  now what shocked you, what it's like, what worked, what
• 1:18:25
  frustrated you? What frustrated me with the
• 1:18:28
  whole thing with well. What frustrated me was, I mean,
• 1:18:36
  of course I'm being so fucking old now.
• 1:18:38
  And Winona Ryder, overprotective ass, you know, I mean, it's
• 1:18:51
  crazy. But I mean, just to, I mean,
• 1:18:56
  just to, in my opinion, they waited too long from Season 4 to
• 1:19:03
  now. You know what I'm saying?
• 1:19:06
  To, to, to, Yeah. And in this, in this fucking
• 1:19:13
  Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's shit, this shit is this
• 1:19:17
  shit ain't right. They should just, they started
• 1:19:20
  shit together. Like for real?
• 1:19:23
  Right. Like I I hate that.
• 1:19:25
  Like they do that for every. Show, yeah.
• 1:19:29
  Like they did it with the fucking Cobra Kai.
• 1:19:31
  Yeah. And I'm just like, can you just
• 1:19:33
  fucking put them? On yeah 'cause this is
• 1:19:35
  ridiculous. I'm no longer interested in this
• 1:19:37
  shit. We want to binge watch this
• 1:19:42
  shit. Yeah, damn.
• 1:19:48
  There was because I know I I think there's going to be like a
• 1:19:52
  little time travel thing the whole 88 mph 88 on there her
• 1:19:59
  talking about the flux capacitor and I'm just like, I love the
• 1:20:06
  fact that. Steve is driving and he hears
• 1:20:10
  pluck capacitor and that like he immediately turned around and so
• 1:20:15
  does Will's brother and they both like do this turn.
• 1:20:18
  He's still driving. Yeah.
• 1:20:20
  Mind you, but he does this turn around and it's like, bro, what
• 1:20:24
  the what the fuck are you doing? I didn't like that they split
• 1:20:32
  corporate kind to three parts. I didn't leader.
• 1:20:33
  Then again, I was like, I thought as soon as fucking the
• 1:20:36
  last one is like, oh God, it's horrible.
• 1:20:39
  I'm done with this. I don't even want to talk about
• 1:20:41
  this anymore. I don't want to talk about the
• 1:20:42
  show anymore. So like it just turned me off
• 1:20:49
  from it. Like there were other sorts of
• 1:20:51
  things that turned me off of it, but it just turned me off from,
• 1:20:53
  it's like, you know what? This fucking show sucks.
• 1:20:57
  They're not going to have a good ending for Stranger Things
• 1:21:00
  either. I'm not going to give me my
• 1:21:01
  hopes up either. But same time, like, all right,
• 1:21:05
  three more episodes to go for Christmas and then again, one
• 1:21:11
  more episode. And I hope it's a huge episode
• 1:21:14
  on New Year. That should be, yeah.
• 1:21:15
  That's it. We're done.
• 1:21:17
  That better be 3 hours for real. No, don't be.
• 1:21:22
  Don't be quiet. Say what you're going to say.
• 1:21:24
  Say it. Say it.
• 1:21:32
  Am I emotionally prepared to watch this show for the end?
• 1:21:35
  Yeah, I'm fucking fine. I don't care.
• 1:21:38
  I didn't like this whole like the past few seasons are fine.
• 1:21:46
  You know, had it been like every season, like after, after the
• 1:21:50
  whole thing with Never Ending Story song, then yeah, I would
• 1:21:55
  have been invested with the tiny children.
• 1:21:57
  But now they're grown as kids and I'm just like, whatever.
• 1:22:07
  Alien aliens. Aliens reference.
• 1:22:10
  Get away from her, you bitch. Get away from my daughter.
• 1:22:14
  I'm like, fuck yeah. That's fucking hot right there,
• 1:22:19
  Wheeler. That's fucking hot.
• 1:22:20
  Miss Wheeler. Hell yeah.
• 1:22:24
  And like, she'd been the girl that's playing Wheeler.
• 1:22:30
  She's been fucking posting on social media lately and it's
• 1:22:33
  like, and she's not like this scene right here.
• 1:22:37
  It would made my day because the whole aliens thing was like
• 1:22:40
  hell. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:22:41
  Everything turned out like, even What's her face?
• 1:22:45
  That girl? Ethan Hawke.
• 1:22:51
  Maya. Maya dressing up as fucking
• 1:22:54
  what's her face as Winona Ryder from back in the 80s, or I think
• 1:23:01
  it was Johnny Depp dressing up as Johnny Depp with the jacket
• 1:23:06
  and everything and then having scenes with Winona Ryder knowing
• 1:23:11
  that he fucking dated. Him like that, straight ahead.
• 1:23:19
  There's one reason I hate that show.
• 1:23:20
  Not here, you know? Damn.
• 1:23:21
  Said that out loud. All right, man, All right.
• 1:23:32
  What am I expecting? I I just expected to fucking
• 1:23:34
  end. I don't care if you're going to
• 1:23:38
  do this again with the whole three more episodes you get to
• 1:23:42
  watch on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
• 1:23:49
  Willpower should have manifested back in season 3, right?
• 1:23:52
  You know, 4, you know, around there not right now.
• 1:23:55
  It's a very end at the very end of the tale where like we've
• 1:23:59
  been all waiting for you to what the hell even his his crush went
• 1:24:03
  to what's his face like? Why didn't this happen and see
• 1:24:07
  the last season when you were trying to explain and then
• 1:24:10
  nothing happened and then like in between seasons, now you're
• 1:24:14
  going to talk about this? Right.
• 1:24:19
  What? Yeah.
• 1:24:26
  All right. So are we expecting it to be
• 1:24:30
  speaking big ass thing or? I don't know what to expect to
• 1:24:38
  true. I'm not going to be some death,
• 1:24:41
  I know that, but. Yeah, the death, I can't wait.
• 1:24:53
  There's only one death I was invested in that was.
• 1:24:56
  Yeah. Like I really don't care
• 1:24:58
  anymore. Like after that if like if
• 1:25:00
  something happened where like somebody did another rock song
• 1:25:03
  in the between there, like, oh, that's just shit is awesome.
• 1:25:06
  Hell yeah, Steve dying at the end these next few episodes,
• 1:25:15
  that's gonna fuck. Everything, yeah.
• 1:25:19
  Like there has to be like a death or some likable character
• 1:25:22
  at. Least it's gonna happen.
• 1:25:23
  It's gonna happen. Fucking Dustin.
• 1:25:26
  If Dustin dies then yeah, I'd be like, not the not the kid that's
• 1:25:31
  fucking we all liked and shit when he was fucking came out in
• 1:25:34
  the first episode with no, not that kid.
• 1:25:37
  Come on. Oh, no, exactly.
• 1:25:40
  Dustin dies. That's like, all right, this
• 1:25:43
  fucking show sold. But yeah, fucking Christmas Day
• 1:25:51
  or whatever, Christmas and New Year, that's when the last the
• 1:25:55
  final three episodes are Christmas and the final one
• 1:25:57
  episode that we got get to wait for on fucking New Year's Eve.
• 1:26:01
  Get the fuck out of here, all right?
• 1:26:04
  We're done with this, and now it's movies that feel like
• 1:26:07
  Christmas movies are technically all right.
• 1:26:08
  Gather around the metaphorical fireplace or the space heater
• 1:26:11
  that sounds like a PlayStation Two trying to read a crash desk.
• 1:26:18
  It's time for one of our favorite December debates,
• 1:26:21
  because we all love to debate about this.
• 1:26:23
  You know the ones. They got the winter vibe, the
• 1:26:26
  holiday energy, the Cody soundtrack, or the emotional
• 1:26:28
  trauma of the December release. But no one at this studio ever
• 1:26:32
  officially slapped the Santa hat on it.
• 1:26:34
  These are the movies that raised us during winter break.
• 1:26:36
  The ones they played on cable when every kid was homesick,
• 1:26:40
  bored, or sugar crashing from too many candy canes.
• 1:26:42
  The ones who watched on VHS at your cousin's house because the
• 1:26:45
  adults refuse to let you watch touch the good TV.
• 1:26:49
  We're talking purely 7 energy, even.
• 1:26:52
  There isn't a single elf, Christmas tree or magical
• 1:26:54
  snowflake insight. So we asked first.
• 1:26:59
  You know, like what? What movies?
• 1:27:01
  And of course people came out Jane.
• 1:27:05
  Die Hard is just a Christmas movie over in there in the
• 1:27:07
  states I think. I think for sure not in my house
• 1:27:12
  though. I haven't even seen them Die
• 1:27:15
  Hard movies. I think Edward Scissorhands the
• 1:27:16
  Christmas movie period. Narnia, the lion, the witch and
• 1:27:20
  the wardrobe, WBT the BBC TV series though it's really a
• 1:27:23
  movie part up. It's also Christmas for me.
• 1:27:26
  But for me 3 Wishes for Cinderella.
• 1:27:28
  It's the Christmas movie of them all. 11 AM on Christmas Eve
• 1:27:34
  every year is holy for me. Nobody's allowed to watch
• 1:27:36
  anything else then. Damn.
• 1:27:39
  OK, changes went off. Fuck you.
• 1:27:44
  AI. Cobra Kai splint 3 parts Get out
• 1:27:47
  of here. Mad Max Lethal Weapon one of Mad
• 1:27:51
  Max says Lethal Weapon one Shenrod says is always straight
• 1:27:55
  to Die Hard. Of course it is Jessa.
• 1:27:58
  I mean, obviously Die Hard is a Christmas movie.
• 1:28:00
  Obviously, I obviously Die Hard as the one that we all got.
• 1:28:04
  To see right. Ho ho ho, these fucking guns
• 1:28:11
  belong to me now. You know, like Christmas?
• 1:28:18
  Yeah. Other movies.
• 1:28:20
  Edward Scissorhands snow? Check.
• 1:28:22
  Winter vibes? Check.
• 1:28:23
  Christmas spirit without actually being a Christmas
• 1:28:25
  movie? Double check.
• 1:28:27
  Gremlins cuz chaos during Christmas.
• 1:28:32
  A busy Christmas movie, of course.
• 1:28:35
  Yeah, they they they sang, they sang Hi ho, hi ho.
• 1:28:42
  No way. That's not it.
• 1:28:43
  No, that's that's no way movie. They did the whole Yule to it.
• 1:28:48
  I remember them singing outside. We wish you a Merry Christmas.
• 1:28:54
  Yeah, that's what they say. If, if, if a Christmas movie.
• 1:28:57
  If a movie has, you know, Christmas songs in there, then
• 1:29:02
  it's a Christmas movie. If a movie has a fucking tree, a
• 1:29:11
  Christmas tree, it's a Christmas movie.
• 1:29:15
  Case in point, Batman. Returns.
• 1:29:17
  Damn right. The freaking Gotham Queen,
• 1:29:22
  whatever her name is. The Prince, where does she land?
• 1:29:26
  The Ice Princess, where does she land?
• 1:29:28
  On the Christmas box and light up the tree and goddamn back
• 1:29:32
  from flying out the tree. So it's a Christmas movie.
• 1:29:37
  Batman Returns the Christmas movie even after Batman Returns
• 1:29:43
  after that fucking Batman with with Mr. Freed.
• 1:29:49
  That's a Christmas movie, too. Right.
• 1:29:54
  Is it? I just keep thinking of them in
• 1:29:58
  the fucking fireplace, I guess. Not a Christmas movie, Harry
• 1:30:08
  Potter the Sorcerer's Stone. Not a Christmas movie, but the
• 1:30:14
  Hogwarts Great Hall said Deck the magical halls anyways.
• 1:30:20
  And it's always comes out around this time of year.
• 1:30:23
  So yeah, it is a Christmas movie.
• 1:30:26
  Like they always go around, They always go to Hogwarts around
• 1:30:28
  November and December. We always get to watch Harry
• 1:30:31
  Potter around November, December.
• 1:30:36
  So yeah, it's a Christmas movie. Iron Man 3, The Shame Black
• 1:30:39
  Special, Christmas everywhere, and yet somehow not a Christmas
• 1:30:41
  movie. It's a Christmas.
• 1:30:43
  It happens around Christmas. I just watched the plate right?
• 1:30:48
  Yeah, it is. It is.
• 1:30:49
  I saw a tree. I saw a tree.
• 1:30:53
  If it has snow. Christmas Movie Iron Man 3 It's
• 1:30:57
  a Christmas movie because it has Snow Jane, She's Here, Rocky 4
• 1:31:06
  Snow Mountains holiday release and the entire thing feels like
• 1:31:09
  a Christmas paper dream and the kids at home are watching it on
• 1:31:15
  Christmas. Eve, Yeah.
• 1:31:18
  So like, that's my dad. We know we're not dumb.
• 1:31:29
  Even the the robot says. Married.
• 1:31:31
  Shit, I gotta add it to my Christmas list.
• 1:31:34
  Add it to your Christmas list. Rocky 4 is a Christmas movie.
• 1:31:38
  You know, like a Christmas. Miracle, yeah.
• 1:31:43
  He beat out of Russian. I would say no not Rocky 6
• 1:31:49
  because he just comes back from it.
• 1:31:52
  It happens in the January Mean Girls is a Christmas movie.
• 1:32:00
  Jingle Bell Rock. That's all I gotta say.
• 1:32:02
  No shit. Yeah, yeah, The Revenant.
• 1:32:08
  Listen, winter trauma is still winter trauma.
• 1:32:14
  Every horror movie that has set a crowd Christmas is a Christmas
• 1:32:17
  movie as well. And finally Die Hard the God
• 1:32:21
  tear holiday debate spiritual Christmas energy bold man in
• 1:32:26
  event energy December icon he is.
• 1:32:29
  He's a December icon. Like how can the same shit
• 1:32:32
  happen the same guy twice? Die Hard 2 is a Christmas.
• 1:32:34
  Movie. Damn right.
• 1:32:37
  Damn right, cuz he says it. How can the same shit happen the
• 1:32:39
  same guy twice on the next next year as well?
• 1:32:43
  So it's like you know 22 Christmas movies from die hard.
• 1:32:49
  That's great. Even even if we can.
• 1:32:53
  Bruce Willis has come out to say it's not a Christian movie.
• 1:32:56
  Then again, he does have. So he somebody had his dress
• 1:33:23
  Santa Claus in there, set up Christmas set around Christmas.
• 1:33:29
  Can't wait to buy kit to buy stuff for the kids, all that
• 1:33:33
  shit. Yeah, and it's on Peacock, so
• 1:33:37
  I'm going to watch it anyway. So yeah.
• 1:33:43
  What else? What are the other list on your
• 1:33:45
  list? That's not like a take a you
• 1:33:50
  said all my answers so we got the same mindset.
• 1:33:54
  So. We got the same everyone watch
• 1:33:59
  list too. OK, Yeah, everybody has their
• 1:34:00
  watches. All right.
• 1:34:02
  If we come, if we think about more Christmas movies, they're
• 1:34:06
  not Christmas, but, you know, technically are.
• 1:34:10
  We'll talk about it again next week and we'll do more stuff on.
• 1:34:15
  That big all? Right.
• 1:34:19
  That's that man. That's the final thing.
• 1:34:21
  Yeah, we made it for two hours. No kidding.
• 1:34:28
  No kidding. Just like you ready to.
• 1:34:31
  Go Yeah, let's get it ready. Yeah, you just get it.
• 1:34:34
  All right? That went fast.
• 1:34:36
  It did, didn't it? Yeah. 10:30 What time do we
• 1:34:41
  start? 8:30?
• 1:34:43
  Hell yeah, yeah. Not bad, all right?
• 1:34:46
  Cool and just like that we reached the end of another
• 1:34:49
  December powered Cocoa field episode of the MPP podcast
• 1:34:52
  episode 264 to 1 running on peppermint mocha energy
• 1:34:57
  questionable holiday movie opinions and the lingering
• 1:35:01
  believed that diehard is a movie Chris Christmas movie because it
• 1:35:04
  just feels especially correct. James says I just got here, like
• 1:35:07
  I know. And it's good thing you just got
• 1:35:11
  here because Shadow Frap said earlier.
• 1:35:16
  Because of we talked about what's it called Stranger Things
• 1:35:24
  and you know. You ain't on Puff, you ain't on
• 1:35:28
  season 5 yet. So good.
• 1:35:31
  Yeah, she's not so round. So yes, if you're just damn it,
• 1:35:39
  I should have said this earlier. Like I'll have it in the show
• 1:35:44
  notes of where you can skip to, I'll edit it and then have it in
• 1:35:50
  the show notes of where you can skip to so you can listen
• 1:35:53
  without having more spoilers. So far, it's gonna be like a 2
• 1:35:58
  hour mark around there. Maybe, perhaps we'll see.
• 1:36:02
  We'll get to it. If you stuck with us through the
• 1:36:08
  nostalgia avalanche, the binge watch confessions, the holiday
• 1:36:11
  cast, and the emotional damage that comes from remembering how
• 1:36:14
  stressful mall parking lots were in 98, congratulations, you're
• 1:36:17
  officially one of us now. You survived A snowstorm by the
• 1:36:21
  Wi-Fi glitches, the Mariah Carey Animal Defrost speedrun, the
• 1:36:24
  Gregas Holiday Action hero energy in that moment where we
• 1:36:27
  all briefly question their life choices.
• 1:36:29
  So before you grab a mug of hot cocoa, unwrap it Tamale, and let
• 1:36:33
  the heater Rock You to sleep like a late 90s Cartoon Network
• 1:36:35
  marathon, here's your mission for next week.
• 1:36:39
  And we forgot to mention something else.
• 1:36:43
  What do you think of Survivor Series?
• 1:36:46
  The War Games. I love the women's match, the
• 1:36:52
  men's war game after terrible. It was fucking terrible shit.
• 1:37:02
  My God, just what do you think of?
• 1:37:04
  That ending, that ending with that.
• 1:37:07
  Oh, no. Oh.
• 1:37:09
  That whole who, who? Who's behind the mask?
• 1:37:15
  I don't I I just don't know who I I'm keep hearing people saying
• 1:37:19
  this theory. I heard people say Jericho,
• 1:37:22
  which I know that's a lie. Speaking of Jericho, Seth, I
• 1:37:31
  don't know because they said he had surgery.
• 1:37:34
  So it's not. It's not.
• 1:37:37
  But then again, he lied about his legs.
• 1:37:41
  Yeah, you never can't tell. It could be that joke, you know?
• 1:37:45
  Yeah, with Jericho, he posted on his Instagram, he posted his
• 1:37:56
  Y2KY2J and from when he first. Came home.
• 1:38:03
  And I'm like, why are you posting this?
• 1:38:05
  He come are you really out of? The reason we didn't have AI.
• 1:38:18
  Saw a clip that was like Jake Paul behind the mask.
• 1:38:20
  I'll wait. How's it?
• 1:38:22
  Oh, Jake Paul, Not Logan Paul. OK, I get it.
• 1:38:26
  Whatever. But he's too sure.
• 1:38:28
  He's too tall. He's too.
• 1:38:29
  Tall. But Jake Paul is shorter than
• 1:38:32
  Logan, but he's too tall in that scene, and it wasn't him.
• 1:38:41
  So the reason we didn't have an episode last week is because our
• 1:38:44
  fucking Wi-Fi went out. My Wi-Fi went out.
• 1:38:48
  I didn't get to watch war games at all.
• 1:38:53
  My Wi-Fi went out like around 1:00.
• 1:38:56
  Yeah. And I didn't get it like until
• 1:39:00
  like 1030. By that time, it was too late.
• 1:39:03
  But and. Replay yours, Yeah, and then
• 1:39:07
  yours. You said that yours went out
• 1:39:09
  before the fucking. Main event, Yeah, right.
• 1:39:11
  For the main event, yeah. I was out for the whole day.
• 1:39:16
  This is like, this shit sucks. I'm going to sleep fucking and
• 1:39:22
  has some leftover still 8 looked around I came and play.
• 1:39:30
  Dang. I came and play.
• 1:39:32
  I came and do anything. There's no Wi-Fi.
• 1:39:34
  And This is why the reason why we must have like, you know,
• 1:39:38
  DVD. That's right.
• 1:39:40
  That's right. Like 'cause then you know some
• 1:39:45
  because some shit like that's going to happen where Wi-Fi is
• 1:39:48
  going to go out and you're just gonna be fucking bored.
• 1:39:51
  I you could have your phone but saying same time like you want
• 1:39:56
  the whole thing in front big screen not.
• 1:39:58
  Like. Looking at your shit the entire
• 1:40:00
  time. So I went to sleep, didn't wake
• 1:40:02
  up till like fucking later, and then I fucking woke up again and
• 1:40:05
  I looked around like no Wi-Fi, no what's going on in thing like
• 1:40:11
  oh cool, that's great. I can't even watch it.
• 1:40:14
  I love Ria's mask. I love the fact that John Cena
• 1:40:21
  sold it to everybody. Sold everybody.
• 1:40:24
  Yeah. That was fun
• 1:40:48
  last week. So yeah, let's let's hit it.
• 1:40:57
  Here's your mission for next week.
• 1:41:00
  What other movies feel like Christmas movies but technically
• 1:41:03
  aren't Christmas movies? We're building next episode
• 1:41:05
  straight from your comments. Memories and D cut nostalgia
• 1:41:07
  fixes. The one blockbuster wish he kept
• 1:41:11
  to yourself. Brand new projects dropping next
• 1:41:14
  week. The kind of question that hit
• 1:41:15
  harder than a snowballs to the face in a 2002 middle school
• 1:41:18
  playground. And because the nostalgia gods
• 1:41:21
  demand tribute, we're diving into some Teenage Mutant Ninja
• 1:41:25
  Turtles lore. The OG movie turns 35 years old
• 1:41:30
  and we refuse to let Donald tell us both staff skills,
• 1:41:32
  Michelangelo's pizza addiction, and or April O'neil's iconic
• 1:41:36
  yellow jumpsuit go uncelebrated. If that doesn't make you feel
• 1:41:41
  old, nothing. Well, before you go Show Some
• 1:41:45
  Love follows on Instagram, Twitter, Blue Sky, Tick Tock and
• 1:41:49
  YouTube for live stream chaos hot takes and those moments we
• 1:41:52
  probably shouldn't record but absolutely do anyway.
• 1:41:55
  Rate the show so the acronym knows that we're not just
• 1:41:57
  talking ourselves in a digital void like is AI AM in 2002.
• 1:42:01
  Drop a comment on Spotify and yes, we really do read them,
• 1:42:04
  even the spicy chaotic ones that sound like they're type during a
• 1:42:07
  nostalgia sugar rush. This is the M3P podcast where
• 1:42:12
  community creativity and a little snowstorm knocks out the
• 1:42:15
  Wi-Fi right as you hit save Chaos Always collide.
• 1:42:19
  That sucked last week, It really did.
• 1:42:22
  And remember, if your Christmas tree light starts flickering,
• 1:42:25
  it's either the spirit of season or you bought the same Dollar
• 1:42:28
  Tree extension course like we did.
• 1:42:31
  Either way, embrace the glow. Enjoying friggin weekend.
• 1:42:36
  And we'll see you next week. Greg, thanks for hanging out.

  Oh shit, I gotta get myself a DVD player.

  My DVD players the PS4. It works without WI.

  Fi, yeah, it still works. DVD on it you can still use.
• 1:43:03
  Yeah, yeah. You don't need no Wi-Fi to play
• 1:43:04
  them DVD's on there. No, it's the whole gaming
• 1:43:09
  system, unless it's like, you know, Amazon or other apps like
• 1:43:17
  that. My PS-5, mine does my PS5-O.
• 1:43:21
  For real. I didn't realize that I'll have
• 1:43:25
  to do it. All right, it's all good.
• 1:43:29
  All right, guys, time to go. Greg.
• 1:43:33
  Thanks for hanging out. Appreciate it, brother.
• 1:43:34
  I'll. See you next time, all right.
