0:09
Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All
0:15
Things nerdy okay now I'm going to have you
0:21
guess what I just said that for I'm going to I I mean I can assume it's
0:24
something to do with gamer score it is um normally what I do is when I get up
0:28
to like a milestone number like that I save it up and I play a Halo game just
0:33
because I don't know you're adorable bit of a softy but this one snuck up on me
0:39
wow what were you playing what were you playing when it clocked over to 800,000
0:44
um I'm just going to double check it might have actually been leg shoot Larry
0:47
hey there you go M there's a new leges shoot Larry game out is it how is it
0:53
like a new new one or is it the one that was on Kickstarter a while back no um
0:56
this is newu yeah right out of nowhere um and even to start the game it's sort of
1:03
like hey how old are you do a quiz that's great what were the questions uh
1:08
the first question was from Buffy Vampire Slayer what is Spike's real
1:14
name I mean that's quite specific like not not everybody our age would know
1:19
that anyway no but all right um what have to be our age you you could have
1:24
been born in the mid90s and still toly at our age I mean it's like the test is
1:31
testing if you were a teenager in the '90s yeah actually no that wasn't what I
1:35
got it on I got it while playing Friday the 13th killer puzzle killer puzzle you
1:41
have to murder a jigsaw puzzle no so it's a like a little puzzle game right
1:47
so you you play you're playing what's his name Jason killer Jason Jason you're
1:52
playing Jason and you have to kill the campers and it's just like a you you
1:57
move around the map but you push a direction you just go to there and just
2:00
working at little puzzles and mazes M actually quite fun but with murdering
2:05
teenagers yes well murdering everyone look doesn't discriminate no
2:11
muring anybody who remembers what Spike's real name was yes I uh got that
2:16
one wrong I had a dream the other night that I got super into
2:21
pubg what I don't know why but even in the dream you guys were like what are
2:27
you doing man like is that cuz can't play fortnite on your phone but you can
2:31
play yeah I think that's what it was and but but you guys are like not only like
2:35
do we not know why you like that game at all but why now
2:41
like see it's sort of funny I it would be good if we like that type of game CU
2:46
that would be a good game to play with each other because if like game it would
2:50
be great cuz it's nice and quick we jump in we die in 30 seconds we start another
2:56
game I bought pubg I played it once and I was like I don't I don't get it it's
3:00
same as fortnite and then I never played it again and then now I think it's free
3:04
so I I regret ever paying for it yeah pubg is now on Game Pass fortnite was
3:10
always free yeah oh that's yeah yeah yeah I bought it on Xbox when it first
3:14
came out on Xbox and then and then went on Game Pass and I was like well son of
3:17
a [ __ ] yeah that's the one bad thing about game pass sometimes it's uh you
3:21
buy a game you don't play it and then it comes out game honestly that's my it's
3:25
my fault it's not the game I could have not played this for free yeah exactly
3:30
yeah if I just played it it would have solved the problem but I didn't MH but
3:35
God Game Pass is good game pass is very good um I've been doing some thinking
3:40
this week about how I'm going to purchase an Xbox because uh you know we
3:44
talk pre-order it in two days exactly well if I try I'm going to try and
3:48
pre-order it there's been some pre-ordering fun this week as you may
3:52
have seen Xbox have assured people that they're not going to let what happened
3:57
to PlayStation happen to them I can't so but it's still possible Sony
4:03
announced the pricing for the PS5 and well played Sony well played you've uh
4:08
you certain beaten them on in fact I think they might have listened to this
4:11
podcast last week because they've done exactly what Luke suggested Microsoft
4:16
should have done yes yeah and have the their best console have a diskless
4:21
version which is that's that little bit cheaper it's not a little bit it's 100
4:25
bucks cheaper there's no way that disc drive costs 100 bucks like that's that's
4:29
intentional to piss well not to piss M off but to get them to get people
4:34
there's no way I'm paying 100 bucks for a disc drive so if we were on the PS
4:38
instead of on the Xbox this would be a no-brainer yeah Y and I really wish and
4:43
Xbox The Annoying Thing with the series X in about six months to a year they
4:47
will release a disc version that's right well that's why we we come back to it I
4:52
still I still haven't decided which what I'm going to get just purely because of
4:55
that so Sony announced the pricing and then they said all right you can
4:58
pre-order it Tom tomorrow tomorrow morning and everyone was like great
5:02
which I prefer announcements like that exactly but then uh Walmart said in fact
5:07
I think I think it was Walmart that tweeted and said why would we make you
5:11
wait we won't make you wait pre-order it right now who gives a [ __ ] and then and
5:15
then the gates were opened and then Best Buy and Amazon and everywhere was just
5:19
the Embargo was broken everyone was just like [ __ ] come and get it but it's
5:23
sort of a weird embargo it's not like you're actually getting anything you're
5:27
just giving them money and so it sold
5:30
out like almost immediately and then the next morning when the people who had
5:35
been like all right tomorrow morning very good I'll get up early and then got
5:39
up and discovered that gone yeah no more uh but even if you did get one even if
5:44
you fortuitous enough to to get a pre-order uh you still might not receive
5:49
your console on launch cuz Amazon said oh we weren't really keeping track of
5:55
the numbers that closely so even if you I mean you've pre-ordered it but that
5:59
doesn't mean you're going to get it before Christmas you you'll get one but
6:03
yeah but it's like an iPhone you know a new iPhone comes out bunch of people
6:07
pre-order and is like yeah when your name comes up to the top of the list
6:10
we'll give you your iPhone we'll give it to you yeah so because apparently
6:14
they've uh Sony has has bought out six I
6:19
think they said Delta planes to fly PlayStation 5es to America for the
6:25
release they've like just going to like stuff the Planes full of them which
6:29
which is [ __ ] fantastic but uh hope this is the one I hope Xbox have learned
6:35
from this and we'll have enough I don't actually I don't care about everyone
6:39
else getting their I just care about me getting mine and I've set my
6:42
alarm cuz preorders start at 8:00 a.m. in Australia on Tuesday so you think
6:48
that it works out that okay this man Mr Luke Alderson of Australia purchased he
6:53
pre-ordered his at 800 a.m. on the pre-order day so he needs to get his at
6:57
8:00 a.m. on the on the yes that would be perfect yeah but
7:04
that's fair so I I was looking into this you know we kind of talked about the
7:08
differences between the series X and the
7:10
series s and I think possibly the series
7:15
s might still be good enough for in this room because
7:20
the I I wish there were specifics like literal like show take a game and tell
7:25
me exactly what I don't get if I don't buy a series X because what they're saying is
7:30
it it it can do 120 frames per second in
7:35
1440p the the series s right is that Luke you would probably know is that
7:41
right I haven't really paid much attention to the series s okay because
7:45
what they're saying is like yeah you're not going to get 4k you know the 4K
7:50
textures and all that kind of stuff using the series s but I don't have a
7:54
screen in here that can do that so I think I think it's all right to be clear
8:00
you're talking about your second one that you're going to purchase oh yeah
8:03
yeah the one in the living room on the 4K TV will be a series X like that makes
8:07
s but in here where I don't have a screen that I don't have a 4K screen so
8:12
I don't know that I need One MH like I'm not sure why I would buy one for in here
8:17
that's what I'm trying to figure out well here's another one how often do you
8:21
use the one where you are now this is the one I use the most okay so that
8:26
makes it a little bit more difficult if you don't have the screen this is my
8:30
this is my launch Xbox one hooked up to a a like a HD monitor I don't have
8:36
another Xbox this is a a launch Xbox one hooked up to a 1080p assus monitor here
8:42
at the side because if I hook it up to this monitor it just it's in the middle
8:46
of the screen because it can't do uh higher than 1080p look I don't know I
8:51
for me I'm if you were also planning to maybe upgrade the series s later when
8:56
the dis list version comes out maybe do it that way I that's that's what I'm
9:00
thinking yeah I'm not going to risk it I'm going to get the X yeah that's fair
9:04
I need it I need that fridge it's not that big size of a small
9:09
fridge it does it looks huge though it's not that big I've seen um uh videos of
9:14
the two next to each other and actually the size isn't isn't that different it's
9:17
not that big I just like that it's plain I I I like it a lot better than the
9:22
PlayStation which is you know yeah it looks a lot nicer than the PlayStation
9:26
yeah yeah it's like what they were thinking with the PlayStation 5 complet
9:30
to date so quickly too yeah two completely different styles one is like
9:36
out there like look at this fancy thing I've got and one of them is just like
9:39
this is just a box under the TV that you don't need to be looking at yeah no
9:45
minimalist but yeah they will release a disc list version after Sony have done
9:49
this and I think they they should have done it this time around I'm surprised
9:53
because it's not like that the most recent Xbox Ones weren't disc lless you
9:58
know it does feel like they're going backwards by putting a disc drive into
10:02
their new one yeah in the year 2020 I think they were just afraid to pull the
10:08
trigger on it yeah yeah in case Sony it is a what big move to make and that's
10:13
why if you look at PlayStation they've they're doing both yeah I can't imagine
10:18
why you would spend 100 bucks on the one with the disc drive and oh actually I
10:21
can because you might want backwards compatibility if you've got a bunch of
10:24
PS think of there are still a lot of people out there that like buying disc
10:29
yeah cuz they like to trade them in they like $100 worth well this will be good
10:35
market research for them actually they'll be able to see exactly who still
10:39
values a disc drive to the tune of $100 [ __ ] man this drives are not that
10:45
expensive I can buy one for 12s there's no way and also Sony makes those drives
10:49
they manufacture them I think right so it's like it costs them probably dollars
10:54
to make one so this is clearly just a a test to see who wants the disc drive
11:00
version cuz there's no difference that's the other thing I don't know that we
11:02
really clarified that there's no other difference between the two except one
11:07
is$ 3.99 digital only no disc drive one is $499 with a disc drive I bet they
11:13
haven't even made I bet they haven't even made any units of the 499 yeah like
11:18
someone's going to call their Bluff they're like a [ __ ] yeah just so weird
11:23
Sony have gone and done what everyone thought Microsoft was going to do was
11:26
wait for Sony to announce their price and then comeing cheaper yeahh well
11:31
hopefully the yeah the Xbox pre-order situation is is a little neater
11:36
especially with the pre-order cuz they do have that very easy way that you can
11:39
buy it on a plan as well is that going to be at launch do we know yeah okay so
11:44
I can do that at the see but then I'm like no I can't waste time [ __ ]
11:48
around with that it's got I've got to get in there I got to get it ordered
11:51
like if I'm they're choosing the plan it's going to be I'm skeptical that
11:55
they're going to let you pre-order something and then not pay for it yeah
12:00
interesting because yeah so so I mean because I think because of Co there's
12:06
less of these than they they would have wanted right that's why the PlayStation
12:09
5 thing was an issue or is it I mean I know this happens every year but uh do
12:14
we know if that's why there was such an issue or is it not the case I think
12:18
that's played a big part of it that and that's why it's still amazing that both
12:22
consoles are coming out cuz they thought maybe the Xbox release would be delayed
12:26
but it but it wasn't so I guess we don't know how many there are they could they
12:31
could be doing a pre-order but there's only two that's right well they're not
12:35
going to tell you oh I sold out we have sold out ofy all the ones
12:40
we've manufactured have sold out both of them no I'm pretty I'm pretty confident
12:45
I will get one I'm not too worried yeah
12:49
but I will cry if I don't Danny you also on an original Xbox One still yeah I
12:55
know not not right now yeah that's what I thought Luke's the only one with with
12:58
a fan the Xbox at this point Y I even got the Scorpio Edition mine is 7 years
13:04
old actually yeah 7 years old it's in year one yeah it's older than my
13:11
dog who is two yeah so is mine but it's that's pretty good that it lasted that
13:16
long I I have found that with this generation the Xbox On's are lasting a
13:21
lot better than the Xbox 360s had 360s for sure yeah yeah I think I went
13:26
through in total about 8 till 9 or something Jesus just with Xboxes
13:32
dying this time they didn't die I just got upgraded the other day I walked in
13:38
here and I could hear like like a noise of like a fan or something and I'm like
13:41
what the hell is that and then I I'm like oh it's my Xbox ah [ __ ] it only
13:46
only like a month yeah hang in there little fellow yeah he's fine he's fine
13:52
and and it's weird thing the thing I'm looking forward to the most about the
13:55
new Xbox it's actually just faster load times yeah mhm that's really a big thing
14:01
for me is the faster load times I mean I've got an SS sure they're going to
14:04
look PR prettier ooh 120 frames per seconds I still don't understand why
14:09
that's the new Target it does look good I mean I know we talked about a little
14:13
bit it does look good though and once you've seen it it's hard to go back like
14:17
if I if I play a game in 120 and I'm like switch it to 60 to see I'm like
14:21
like yeah yeah it's like God no no more frames it's like the opposite of movies
14:26
you can never go back it's like with your television
14:29
is it is the frame rate variable though can we CU obviously in AUST not going to
14:34
be 120 it's going to be 100 oh is that true I don't know we don't have we don't
14:39
pulse at 60 so we don't do 30 60 120 we
14:43
do 25 50 100 you know I don't know I don't know about that because I'm I'm
14:49
hooked mine's hooked up to a monitor so I think my monitor can do whatever no
14:53
but it's not your monitor it's your um it's your the power coming out of your
14:57
wall socket oh you're right you know what I always forget about that that's
15:00
why my coffee machine doesn't work properly here cuz it's an Australian one
15:05
I have no idea how it's going to work but the difference between 100 and 120 I
15:10
don't think my eyes will tell the difference yeah well we'll find out I'll
15:15
send you a video of mine at 120 and you can watch it on your as always it's not
15:20
going to be the frames are never going to be locked in most there's very few
15:24
games that will lock in yeah frames to especially at that high end
15:29
normally if they're locking it in except I find it's lower so that way you get
15:33
better quality throughout instead of it jumping and changing yeah but what do I
15:38
know you guys uh played any more of this war of mine because I put it on again
15:43
for one more game and uh one of my guys froze to death in the first night and I
15:49
turned it off God and I uninstalled it because I don't need this drama I don't
15:54
need the stress in my life I did start a game but then I uh I forget why I think
15:59
I think it was like late and I was like you know what I'm not doing this again
16:03
so I haven't I haven't played a full game but I did start another game I so
16:06
upsetting I think I have four people this time so and it's there those sort of
16:13
like howy you well you can win the game but I was talking to someone about it
16:18
the other day and I I was like I
16:21
recommend it but not like I mean do think about it first look into it a bit
16:28
first cuz I recommend but also I don't want to depress you it's sure you're in
16:32
an okay mood when you put it on and it's also a game that you have to pay a lot
16:36
of attention to yes you can't sort of just be have your mind wandering because
16:41
that's what screwed me up a few times is I wasn't paying full attention and I
16:45
didn't change where I was going to you make silly mistakes people that's just I
16:50
got nothing and I came back and then everyone got the Press cuz you were
16:53
watching Spies Like Us while you were playing it I love that
16:57
movie The last playthrough that I did the proper playthrough I even started
17:03
taking notes written notes about like okay at this location I haven't taken all of this
17:09
come back and grab it I did that for disco alium I was taking handwritten
17:13
notes yeah [ __ ] the other thing I still struggle with is every time I go
17:17
to somewhere in that game is I'm scared of every if there's someone there I'm
17:22
panicking that I'm going to get shot or killed I don't I keep forgetting that
17:26
you can actually just walk past a lot of these people and unless you do something
17:30
wrong and steal from them I feel like that in real life um Matt I assume you have not been
17:37
playing that because you've been playing something else that is correct I have
17:40
gotten well and truly uh absorbed by Assassin's Creed Odyssey you were 100%
17:47
right sir good I saw the dick pick yes I I was like you know what I'll give it a
17:53
shot and then within 10 minutes I was like oh oh okay they it's basically like
17:59
they took all of the [ __ ] and got and just like scraped it away and they were
18:04
like here's just all the good bits of Assassin's Creed mixed with mixed with
18:07
The Witcher yeah and also it's beautiful cuz it's a Mediterranean 2,000 years ago
18:14
and it's yeah EXA yeah the setting is is interesting and yeah it's I mean I've
18:19
not played a game in that setting I like not not I mean not like
18:26
this anyway I've never walked around in ancient Greece
18:29
that's why it's interesting yeah you need to listen to me more I recommended
18:33
that game years ago yeah but you'd recommended all the other Assassin's
18:37
Creeds leading up to that so you can for us for
18:41
not no no I I've I've told you to skip some and actually I still think the one
18:47
that came before that one in Egypt Origins don't play that one especially
18:52
liking odsy if you go back to Origins you're really not going to like I'm
18:56
going to give CU I yeah I want to play that love Egypt I'm going to finish this
19:00
one first but I'll I'm going to give it a shot and then I'm curious about cuz I
19:05
was The Syndicate like this or was it
19:08
the old style where cuz old style yeah okay cuz it the thing with Ubisoft games
19:14
it seems Matt wants to be a Geer I I medieval not medieval uh what was it
19:20
Victorian London come on why wouldn't you want to play that your St it's your
19:24
style man yeah and I did try to play it once but then I like the Assassin's
19:29
Creed games used to have all that filler right which is that's why Odyssey does
19:35
not seem to have the filler or they've disguised the filler in a in a very
19:40
clever way with you know actual story I think they've also learned from
19:46
that as well for valala they're doing it really excited about that yeah because
19:52
valala they're not having side quests so it's not like when you go and rapee and
19:56
pillage your town that you go and then the farmer will come up and go hey can
20:00
you go help me collect this for you that sort of stuff's not going to be in it
20:03
cuz it makes no sense in the game some raping for me while you're
20:10
pillaging my uh my opponent's Farm could do with a bit of
20:15
aever but that I'm looking forward to that I think that's probably going to be
20:18
one of the first games I play on the series X yeah right I think cyber Punk
20:23
is going to be I mean not the first game I play on it cuz uh well cyber Punk
20:28
comes out a week after right so I'll have to I'll probably be playing
20:30
Assassin's Creed Odyssey still to be honest CU I it takes me a little while
20:34
to get through games I think I'm probably going to not upgrade until I'm
20:39
ready to play a brand new title yeah waiting until next year might not be a
20:46
bad idea but I don't know that's the other thing too is should I just get one
20:52
pre-order one of them and see what happens well the other thing you could
20:55
do is pre-order the one and then wait to see if they do release that disc list
21:00
version later yeah cuz remember you're still going to be able to play with each
21:05
other play on this thing yeah yeah but cuz I'm pretty sure
21:12
it's coming across not like you we you play with people anyway but you could
21:17
it's still going to be crossplatform J I've been playing Diablo 3 I see that
21:23
every now and again mhm I think about joining in it was a very pretty game
21:27
very pretty we just like because you can play on the same on the one screen just
21:31
both on the screen and we just so we just sit in the couch and play yeah it's
21:35
good yeah no more games should do that good game but yeah Assassin's Creed
21:40
Odyssey loving it uh surprisingly I'm surprised by how much I
21:45
love it but then I guess I shouldn't be because it's basically what you you both
21:48
said yeah are you playing as alexio uh no Cassandra of course not you guys are
21:55
no no no you guys are candra Cassandra's canonical yeah the story is actually based you
22:02
playing the female really but they just gave people the option but yeah you
22:07
should be playing as Cassandra and I find her prettier to
22:12
look at I'm gonna I'm going to say something that's that's going to come
22:14
across a little bit racist but there's something about about
22:19
say I hit record but I'm already recording about playing a greasy Greek
22:25
dude right that's just you thought that was s racist I don't know what you
22:30
mean go on no no I he's a bit unlikable he's just a bit unlikable
22:37
really okay he's arrogant and uh yeah I I I wondered whether playing as
22:44
Cassandra would be better simply because perhaps she I don't find her to be that
22:49
way really so that's interesting now I'm
22:52
curious and cuz he's dead in uh oh as
22:56
far as I know anyway I mean well if he's alive that'd be a
23:02
spoiler because in the first 10 minutes of the game he gets thrown off a cliff
23:07
so huh oh really so that still is the story for him that's not the story for
23:12
her so well they both get thrown off right yeah yeah it's just that one of
23:17
them's a baby and in my version when well in Cassandra's version alexios is
23:23
the baby and he's as far as I know he's dead but does she try to stop her father
23:27
from throwing him off the cliff yeah yeah yeah and then she gets thrown off
23:31
but she doesn't die yeah she goes yeah gets found by a and starts murdering L
23:37
creepy guy who apparently just seems to recruit young underage women to do jobs
23:42
for him I'll stop you there he recruits young underage men which is why I my job
23:47
with fair enough good game very good great game I can't wait it's going to be
23:53
so many so many more weeks before I get my Xbox it's on a boat right now yeah no
23:58
I remember that well see I didn't do that I took my Xbox on the plane if you
24:01
recall in a in a Duff bag I thought about it yeah but then I thought my TV
24:07
is not going to even be there oh yeah well say I figured there' be a TV I could use
24:11
somewhere and know I was coming through security at the airport when I got here
24:16
and uh the the back to the guy was like what the [ __ ] he opens it up and he goes
24:20
I wouldn't I wouldn't travel with this again and I was like don't worry mate
24:23
not gonna this is a oneof I am set yeah what cuz I had the Xbox I had the hard
24:29
drive the external hard drive which at that point was a was a large uh one with
24:33
a power brick and everything and then yeah he was like shaking his head you
24:38
don't understand it was going to be months until it arriv yeah exactly yeah
24:43
I remember the time your bag got searched when we'd been at Disneyland my
24:48
bag was it your bag and uh and they found your R2D2 Mickey ears oh yeah sure
24:55
oh that's right yeah yeah yeah yeah and they were having a uh yeah yeah
24:58
and and you were like you were like [ __ ] is this going to be an embarrassing
25:01
moment and the guy's like yeah this is cool where'd you get this yeah Disney
25:05
name oh D yeah somebody oh D2 yeah TSA
25:10
just right into it I remember when uh Luke's bag got searched and I felt sorry
25:15
for whoever searched it because it was just a pile of clothes that had been
25:19
shoved in there and a giant handle of
25:22
Johnny Walker red like a 2 L bottle of Johnny Walker i' slug that thing around
25:29
all of America mhm while drinking it all it's taking a Swig in every
25:35
state I played four that I was in I was playing something else before I got uh
25:41
caught up in Assassin's Creed Odyssey I restarted the outer worlds because okay
25:46
the DLC came out yes I've recently started playing the DLC as well because
25:51
you but you can't play it if you finish
25:53
the game yeah so if you have one save and you don't have any other saes
26:00
throughout the game you basically have to go back and restart from scratch I
26:04
was lucky that I with those games I have a few different saves so I was able to
26:09
find a save that was before that last mission playing with an underdeveloped
26:15
character yeah exactly that's what I probably do too but I'm like that makes
26:18
me feel gross like no no no I was I was lucky that the the save I had was like
26:25
just before I started the last mission oh but see I I feel like this point I
26:30
wouldn't even know my character anymore I'd be like who are you yeah what was I
26:34
what was I going for it is taking me a little while to get back into how to
26:39
control my companions and stuff like that and which one I like but the one
26:43
thing I did now though cuz my original playthrough I played it through on the
26:47
hardest setting oh yeah so I could get the achievement and with that one
26:51
there's no fast travel you can only sleep in on your ship oh all this stuff
26:56
like it's but now for the DLC I've just gone story difficulty yeah so I can just
27:02
play it not have to worry about food and cuz I actually it might be a little bit
27:08
too easy I need to up it maybe just a little bit cuz it's a fantastic game
27:12
anyway and the first time I play I I usually do this I the first time I play
27:16
through a game I play through it like good like I'm a good guy and I do it the
27:20
way that you know I'm a hero and then the second play through I'm going to
27:25
murder you and take you well I'm a bit more I would say uh self-absorbed in
27:30
this playthrough let's put it that way mhm which is quite funny in this game
27:35
because it's so goofy I I actually forgot that it was so goofy you know
27:39
when you meet that first spaces Choice guy and he just spouts all the slogans
27:42
at you I was like oh that's right this game's like funny this is not going to
27:47
go the way that it's it's not a serious game anyway so no actually maybe I'll
27:52
I'm to wish I had started a second playthrough and been a bit more like
27:55
that I uh I never finished it the first time around um but it's been so long
28:01
that I have been meaning to go back and I think it's I I did pop back into it a
28:06
little while ago and too much time had passed I forgotten what am I doing
28:11
what's my what's my focus so DLC I I think maybe eventually when my Xbox
28:16
arrives and I finish Assassin's Creed if
28:21
uh cyber Punk hasn't come out yet then maybe I'll go back and play this from
28:25
the start well we're definitely looking at that cyber Punk's not going to be
28:29
delayed now doesn't look like it I mean they the other the third night City Wire
28:33
was the other day and they they're not delaying it so I am a little shocked I
28:38
thought that it it would it would slip again especially with just how busy the
28:43
the end of the year is for games yeah but nope it's coming out and I'm
28:49
looking forward to it what if it sucks there is a good chance it will
28:55
what if it's not any good cuz the hype for this is huge we're all really
28:59
excited for it I'm kind of taking it as a given it's going to be like [ __ ]
29:02
amazing but what if it sucks yeah can't wait to play my favorite game ever that
29:07
I've not played yet cuz I mean this has happened before right what was a game that oh da
29:12
Katana mhm just I'm kidding but no there
29:16
has happened where yeah the hype no man skg oh no man's Sky yes yeah watch dogs
29:23
yeah yeah see it happens mhm man that's [ __ ] that's some people I guess would
29:28
chalk that up to deceit The Watch Dog side of it cuz people get a bit mad at
29:33
Ubisoft about it but that [ __ ] E3 trailer we did not get that game no no
29:37
we did not no trailer it was game playay but that's not the game I played yeah
29:42
and the all Legion comes out yes in October as well yeah it looks
29:48
interesting I'm looking forward to that one you want to play as an old woman I'm not
29:53
surprised well that's it's a very interesting choice how you can you get
29:58
to play multiple characters and you just recruit whoever you want yeah and you
30:03
can have or just have like completely old people but there is a chance that
30:06
they will just have a heart attack and die yeah wa is that actually a thing
30:10
that can happen yeah they can just
30:13
die and there is a Perma Death Mode where the oh you can recruit more people
30:20
even yeah you can every every single person in that game evidently you can
30:24
recruit interesting all right all right yeah because part of the gaml is you've
30:28
got a mission you need certain skills you got to go out and find the people
30:30
who can pull it off right yeah okay so you might need something that needs a
30:34
hacker you might need someone who's good at driving you might need someone that's
30:37
good at non-lethal killing no nonlethal
30:41
take down yeah going to this episode it's going to be hard to find someone
30:46
with that particular skill set Liam niss
30:51
perhaps I do love that uh that line in The Simpsons episode where they go to
30:55
Africa where their guide is talking about the the current leader um you know
31:00
assume the position in a bloodless coup and they're like oh that's nice he's like yeah all
31:09
stranglings so Pax has been on this week yep last day is tomorrow so yep the last
31:15
day is today isn't it unfortunately I went away for a few days for about half
31:21
of it yeah so did I I was hoping to have like internet where I was but I got
31:27
there logged on to internet and could not do anything with it yeah which is
31:32
also why saile didn't come out this week we've recorded it oh okay I wondered
31:36
where it was yeah well I was completd where I was in kangaroo Valley so there
31:41
was no chance of me Che how was that How's being nothing it's so good how's
31:47
being nothing Dan
31:51
yeah um I don't know if I'd survive no
31:55
you would because like there's no point in picking up your phone you know cuz it
32:02
doesn't work so so so what do you do well you pick up a book or you pick up
32:07
an ax and chop some wood if you think you're going to be cold cuz you're going
32:11
to need a fire that's almost like remember we I we we we mentioned this
32:14
briefly when we talked about our original trip to America Dan but we
32:18
didn't have I we we had iPhones in Australia but they didn't work in
32:21
America so we only had flip phones so we didn't have that thing where now you
32:26
would be on your phone looking at stuff yeah we were just walking around looking
32:29
at things yeah we were just on holidays and like we we bought those little flip
32:35
phones so we could call one another yeah we just text and talk to each other if
32:39
we got lost yeah like I'm I'm at the Starbucks come but we did not have we
32:43
didn't have phones so so yeah and and maybe that would be a nice thing to do
32:49
these days is go on vacation and not be constantly looking at I get an Uber I'll
32:53
get I mean Uber's convenient but I mean like yeah I don't know you know what I
32:58
mean when I go on holidays now it's basically I open up my phone and go
33:02
things to do near me and that's how I decide what I'm doing yeah so otherwise
33:07
you'd just be standing there yeah well yep no one's told me Google no one's
33:12
told me what to do so park bench until a Parisian comes and sits down and
33:17
suggests something for me to do no yep parisians did not suggest nice things
33:21
for Luke to do no when we were in Paris they in fact both of you both of you had pris
33:28
suggest some pretty awful things they were not fond of us I don't know what I
33:32
did to them a you know what you did I know what I did to mine I didn't mean to
33:37
do it but I know what I did disrespected his people Luke y
33:42
apparently yours I think there their was a little bit different cuz you were like
33:47
sorry don't speak English uh don't speak French and so he spoke English and you
33:51
I'm still not going to give you money I didn't say if you speak English I'll
33:55
give you money I just said I don't know what you're asking for and so he said
33:59
money and I said oh no
34:04
no oh this is a Shakedown yeah so I
34:09
watched uh acquisition Inc um which so I mean the curtain was pulled back a
34:15
little bit on a few of these panels uh a lot of them were not live which is fine
34:20
it's just uh some of them I thought they were and and they weren't um actually
34:25
yeah and I think they actually started doing that because I know a few of the
34:29
panels actually had issues yeah right when when they were trying to stream cuz
34:33
there was a there was a music one I wanted to watch cuz he was like playing
34:37
the entire marble manness soundtrack on piano yeah but then second he started
34:42
playing it just go s like a robot and was able so I think they started doing
34:46
that with a few of them just to so it would work have a Zone well the
34:51
acquisition Inc uh which was very good by the way as always it was fun watching
34:55
them play D and D uh they accidentally released it uh on the
35:00
podcast feed the day before and everyone was like oh can't wait to watch this live
35:07
tomorrow the the the episode that I just heard yeah that was not live but that's
35:11
fine like I mean it was a different vibe anyway like watching it with an audience
35:17
is very different watching with a and then going okay now I've got to go after
35:21
this I've got to go head over here so I can get play this game or check this out
35:25
yeah just missed some of that I'm still happy it went ahead we could have done
35:29
all that guys we we really did this wrong we Luke said it last week we we
35:34
should have communicated with one another and watched things at the same
35:39
time and decided like you guys want to have a beer let's let's drink a beer
35:43
while we watch this one or let's let's order a pizza you know like we could
35:47
have could have made this something that's true especially cuz none of us
35:51
were at work no yeah that's right I was either watching panels or playing
35:56
Assassin's Creed yeah we really missed a chance here yeah we got no one to blame
35:59
it ourselves actually also a TV show took up a bunch of my time last week too
36:04
oh what were you watching another point to Dan I watched the terror I knew you'd
36:10
love this Matt I knew you would love what a [ __ ] show fantastic yeah I
36:16
loved it yeah love both history and horror the thing that's really great
36:23
about it is you could so it's it's the story of uh two ships trying to find the
36:29
Northwest Passage through the through the Arctic Circle So based on a true
36:33
story the two ships really did go missing uh and I think they were found a
36:36
few years ago they were found only last year the year before yeah yeah so it's
36:41
the story the fictional fictionalized story of of what
36:45
might have happened to them cuz they just went missing and Y it's got a bit
36:50
of a supernatural Twist on it but the thing that's really great about it is
36:54
you could not have that twist and it would still will be [ __ ] compelling
36:59
because most of it is not horrific exactly it it's like harrowing for other
37:05
reasons and most of them are are potentially probably what did happen
37:10
like based on what they've discovered but it's that great it's that great
37:14
premise that that a lot of really good horror has where there's something
37:18
Supernatural there's a monster but what's really horrific is the human
37:23
element yeah what what and how people react during crisis yeah what people
37:29
will do when it gets down to the line yeah it's what a [ __ ] show and like I
37:35
said towards the end there I forgot there was a thing cuz it didn't that
37:40
that wasn't what was [ __ ] going on like they yeah the desperation and
37:45
everything was was what was interesting so well if you if you decide to watch the second
37:51
season okay oh no I started it and I'm enjoying it but it's almost like a different show
37:58
yeah and it doesn't have that thing where you forget that you're watching
38:01
something Supernatural it's all about that yeah sure yeah they double down on
38:05
that a bit more then triped down on it yeah one thing and and this is a I know
38:11
this is good because it added to it but man I [ __ ] hated that little prick
38:16
you know who I mean Dan oh yeah that act that actor what perfect casting did such
38:22
a good job of playing a mommy little yes niy little prick like I just want to
38:28
punch his little face anyway no this he's it's so he's he's really it's like
38:34
a like Joffrey in um Game of Thrones
38:37
where you're just like ah [ __ ] this guy
38:42
yeah look before we go back and and keep going down this path can we just talk
38:47
about villains for a s sure and I just I just want to talk about JK
38:54
Rowling in a lot of hot water this year for for um stating uh what she feels are
39:01
problematic elements of the conversation
39:04
surrounding transgender as a concept and you know the internet's canceled her cuz
39:10
you're not allowed to have questions or concerns about issues anymore have they
39:13
canceled her I mean we come back to that but but but I think she's fine uh well I
39:19
mean so she's got uh she's got a new book coming out and she's decided um to
39:25
make the villain a transvest because uh she guess I guess she just
39:30
wants to see how many people she can piss off well we we talked about she
39:36
questions it but it's happy to make money from it well I mean this is
39:40
already a a number one bestseller isn't it so I I I know this article does say
39:45
oh you know she's ended a or people are saying on Twitter a she's like murdered
39:49
her own career and everything but I don't know that that's true I think this
39:51
is just oh no no I'm sure it's not but people are very
39:55
angry I get it # cancel JK ring has been
40:00
replaced with # rip jking yeah I'm just not sure that that
40:06
that anyone outside of that kind of bubble on Twitter even knows that this
40:10
is a thing cuz I certainly didn't and like I said the book appears to be a
40:14
number one bestseller so I think I mean not that that has anything to do with
40:18
her opinions on you know transgender or whatever I'm just saying I'm not sure
40:21
everyone even anyone even knows this is a thing but she did that big write up
40:26
about why she has concerns and it seems like she's basically just written a
40:30
fictional story this is like this is what I told you would happen I made it
40:34
up I made up what I what I was worried about kind of thing like somebody is a
40:39
guy's going to dress as a woman in order to kill women right that's what she was
40:43
saying she thinks is going to happen and she's written a book about it is it I
40:47
don't know what she was saying originally well she think cuz she was
40:51
abused right she was in an abusive relationship and she her essay that she
40:56
wrote was saying she's worried that the laws in Scotland are going to allow
41:00
abusive men to wander into the women's bathroom and get up to stuff that was
41:05
her concern I believe isn't that what everyone was but yeah I think yeah I
41:10
think it may have been something but I I find that argument so silly cuz if
41:14
someone's going to WAND into a bathroom to do something like that they're not
41:17
really going to be worrying about what's the sign the door says quite right yeah
41:22
yeah just cuz you say they're allowed to go in there I mean they could they would
41:26
surely they would do it anyway I don't think she literally meant access I think
41:30
what she meant was that men are so privileged they can be whatever they
41:34
want and now they can even be women yeah okay I
41:39
yeah but isn't doesn't it the other way around as well although she's not
41:44
looking at it from that point of view that's the thing I guess because that's
41:48
why she's a she's a Turf right because she's a she's a feminist so she's you
41:53
know trans exclusionary radical feminism you know is that a thing you've heard of
41:57
they call her a turf turf trans exclusionary radical feminist which
42:01
means you're an extreme feminist and it's that's not really compatible with
42:08
you know transgender because the idea is that they should be treated equally but
42:13
if there's no difference between them other you know genders a construct well
42:18
then kind of that all stops what they working towards doesn't work as it's
42:22
like the conflict I guess is what I'm trying to say so
42:27
interesting it certainly is interesting I probably not qualified to talk about
42:32
it yeah exactly right don't write in I know I'm not I know I'm not Authority on
42:37
this uh there are probably smarter people who could explain what I'm trying
42:41
to explain but I do think she's probably fine she doesn't have to work another
42:46
day in her life so that's true Rowling has not yet publicly address the
42:51
situation she will she will she always does she she'll tweet something
42:57
M Sometimes the best thing to do is just to do nothing she's not good at that
43:01
though that's not her style yeah sometimes the best thing to do is if you
43:06
want to convince people that you're not transphobic best thing to do is write a
43:10
book uh about a transsexual who murders people sometimes that's just the best
43:15
thing to do I've not read any of her books um I've read Harry Potter yeah
43:21
that's that's it I know she did Harry Potter then she went off and tried to do
43:25
another book that didn't go well then she went back and did another har
43:29
Potter books as a man ironic did she this always assumed that the JK Rowling
43:36
was so that nobody knew whether she was a man or a woman which is why most
43:40
people use a pen name this book that she's written the one that we're
43:44
discussing about the the serial killer is written under the name Robert GB
43:48
which is her pseudonym for Crime fiction where she writes as a man so oh Yeah
43:54
ironic because she thought she'll be taken more seriously writing crime
43:58
fiction as a man I don't even know how to respond to
44:01
that well that's that that's I'm saying that's that's her that's her feminist
44:05
angle right is that she thinks anyway yeah we don't need to go into it but
44:09
that's what I'm saying she's got her political and and cultural beliefs kind
44:14
of I think where all this is coming from She's Got an agenda that's not really
44:19
compatible with with other people's agenda anyway uh I look forward to
44:25
Luke's review of troubled blood I I I I won't be reading it I kind of want to
44:31
but I won't either I unless someone tells need more lightsabers I think
44:36
Matt's the most likely to read this it's a serial killer book and he's read other
44:41
JK railing books so I'll see I think a great meme the other day that was if I
44:48
ever get murdered by a serial killer you'll know that I die doing what I
44:51
loved learning about serial killers
44:57
I'll tell you what I'm as an expert I'll read this book and I'll tell you if it's
45:00
transphobic because I'll know I'll know is it on Audible I hope they got a
45:05
transgender person to do the readon audible she insisted against
45:10
it so how about some Star Wars news St Wars news Star Wars how about someone
45:16
getting fired from the Mandalorian is this
45:22
true um it seems to be that way from the Articles I've been reading and it would
45:27
certainly explain a lot of the stuff we've heard about him not being on set
45:31
for half the [ __ ] episodes of season one The it sounds like that he Pedro
45:37
Pascal really wanted to start doing scenes without the
45:40
helmet even though they made it very clear in the first season he can't be
45:45
seen without the helmet and we've already discussed the
45:50
kind of controversial episode where he did uh
45:54
unhel which there was no no need for us see his face in that episode at all they
45:59
could have and I think they may have done that as a way just to okay in the
46:04
first season I think it may have been a thing that he wanted to show his face
46:07
and that may have been their sort of like we'll let you do it jce once but
46:11
then again why get an actor like Pedro Pascal that you would have to pay a fair
46:15
bit of money like he's been in two really popular SE series television
46:20
series before this Game of Thrones and
46:22
narcos so like I mean why get a person
46:28
who's got a recognizable face if you're G to cover up that face so I I don't
46:31
actually recognize him did you watch Game of Thrones no you
46:38
watch Naros no that' be one you haven't seen I've never seen this man before
46:43
have you watched any of St in no no unbelievable
46:49
but I did I just Googled and it does seem I mean this is going around so the
46:53
only reason I question is because I was like what is this website and then it
46:55
doesn't it only links to some YouTuber who's like Pedro Pascal got fired like
47:00
who the [ __ ] are you so but it is no I have WR it on a few this is just the
47:05
when I typed it in cuz post an article in this is the one that was there MH but
47:10
evidently like they were saying no no no throughout the thing so he he went
47:13
behind the producers and director back went straight to Lucas Arts Lucas film
47:18
and went hey hey I don't want to do this and they' gone go away then yeah like
47:24
you don't do it then fired she doesn't [ __ ] around so there's the have seen other rumors
47:30
that maybe it's now just going to continue on a bit like it actually is
47:34
that he's not going to come in and do any of the acting anymore that'll just
47:38
continue to be by uh John Wayne's grandson but but it's
47:43
my understanding that and he'll just do the voice acting that's apparently how
47:47
season 1 went as well like the director one of the episodes that we were
47:51
breaking down was saying I never met Petra Pascal like I got to set it was
47:57
John Wayne's grandson yeah and it's sort of weird because they sort of changed
48:02
the awards now that he could have been considered because up until recently you
48:07
if you're wearing a mask you couldn't be eligible to win an award because how do
48:13
we know that's you blah blah blah how do we know that's you no proof you were
48:19
in but so he's sort of taking himself out of being running because he's never
48:25
there to do it yeah I'm I'm still upset that they showed his face in the first
48:29
season like I don't think it needed to be there and I I'm happy that they're
48:33
not going to do it because it would make no sense mate I I was okay with that
48:37
episode I wasn't okay with the episode where he just took off his helmet to eat a
48:41
sandwich 5 feet away from everyone in the village playing that I mean that was
48:46
arguably the worst episode of of the entire season but that that was just
48:52
unforgivable the um so it's not just going to become the baby Yoda show is
48:56
that well I mean according to this one YouTuber who's put all this Clues
49:00
together I mean she is saying that she believes that uh they're just going to
49:04
use scenes that they've got and kind of pepper him throughout the season but he
49:08
is not necessarily going to be the the protagonist I the Mandalorian though
49:13
it's called the Mandalorian yeah exactly yeah well they can just replace him with
49:18
another Mandalorian yeah exactly right that's true maybe baby Yoda will become
49:21
a Mandalorian if they could they can swap out anyone could be
49:26
like it was him the whole time you put on the little helmet and then you never
49:30
see his face again oh we couldn't they couldn't do
49:35
that he has to cut little little holes for the ears stick out just so the we wi
49:41
know still baby y oh I need that as a
49:44
pop vinyl just buy two and merge them
49:48
merge them and Two Become One oh it's a song I wrote about it so yeah so
49:55
evidently they writing him out from
49:58
season 3 possibly but I though Matt I mean how do you write out the titula
50:04
character yeah exactly especially when as you pointed out Luke it's a character
50:10
who wears a mask just recast yeah you'd have to do like you said you need to do
50:15
is get the voice you'd have to do a thing like like you said get another
50:19
Mandalorian and they can just be like oh no it's just a you know it's a Anthology
50:23
series about different Mandalorian yeah and they'll change it to Mandalorian not
50:28
the Mandan a Mandalorian the Mandalorian we left the S off the promotional material by
50:35
accident maybe it's Latin can just be mandaloria and that's I find it strange
50:41
though that it's become such an issue that he had to start talking going
50:45
behind people's back to try and get this to happen he would have known what he
50:48
was signing up for at the start you would think so it's just throwing his
50:51
weight around I guess oh don't F shame him come on we got some other Star Wars news oh
50:57
this is I mean it's not news this is uh I mean old news at this point but um
51:02
Daisy Ridley has said that uh all the all the stars are coming out now you
51:07
know airing the dirty laundry from the the sequel Trilogy she's saying that
51:10
apparently even during production during production they were going back and
51:14
forth and JJ was like maybe you're Obi-Wan's granddaughter and she was like
51:18
oh yeah she's like no today you're Palpatine's granddaughter Palpatine
51:24
she's like oh yeah you got to be related someone someone well that's the they
51:29
were basically trying to figure out like how the [ __ ] do we clean this mess up
51:32
because they didn't have to just that's the thing I still don't understand how
51:36
did you not have the idea planned from the start you know you're making a
51:41
Trilogy what was you don't have the story they got JJ Abrams and he set this
51:47
thing up and then they let Ryan Johnson go in another Direction which would be
51:50
fine except then the fans got mad and they were like ah [ __ ] and then so then
51:56
then we ended up with what we got so no but that's just pandering I I I was
52:01
overjoyed when they said she wasn't related to anyone and I didn't like much
52:04
about that movie but that I did like yeah I liked that they just went you
52:09
know what I know you're expecting her to be someone's [ __ ] granddaughter but
52:12
guess what she's not and then jjb was like she is we just don't know
52:18
who's that's until the last day of
52:22
filming yeah well that and apparently during this the scene at the end she didn't
52:29
know when they shot that scene on tne they had not decided yet and then I I
52:36
believe maybe they had her say different names wow they like we'll pick one just
52:41
because I'm the daughter of
52:44
paltin my name my name's Ray unab Bongo
52:48
is that a character Ray solo Ray solo I bet that was discussed Ray Fisto Kit
52:55
Fisto's granddaughter remember kit Fister whatever happened to
52:59
him oh he was murdered by her Granddad well that's the other thing that's so
53:03
starting to scare me a lot about mental Orient as well they're starting to talk
53:06
rumors about them bringing in like Darth Maul and Boba Fett and don't do that was
53:13
that the whole point is that that it could just be like a a story that's
53:17
taking place somewhere else in the universe that don't have to connect it
53:20
up they don't have to be I think that's what uh uh favro has come out and said
53:25
there's there's at least one Empire Strikes Back character in season 2 and
53:30
it's like well I mean I know I know what you're getting at you want us to be all
53:34
like oh it's Boba Fett it's probably BOS
53:38
or or that little Droid yeah yeah but
53:42
yeah we don't want that just Rogue one was one of the best Star Wars movies to
53:49
come out recently because yes it did have cfish at the very end Darth for a
53:53
little bit but it was its own story it didn't try to force the m characters
53:57
down your throat to go hey we're here they don't need to be one thing that I
54:02
did like about this article brought up was that when uh Pedro Pascal went to
54:08
lucasfilm and said I need you to intervene they said oh no where we're
54:12
actually staying hands off with Mandalorian and I hope that is true
54:17
because uh we have learned our lesson yeah they've proved that being Hands-On
54:22
is not what is the best for this franchise not this uh just Lettin favro
54:28
and uh what's the name of the uh the director of the Clone Wars who also
54:32
directs some of these episodes um f Fon
54:38
Dave yeah Fon I think like that yeah um you know they just let them do their
54:44
thing and they created something really great when they should just bring us on
54:48
already to do it they already steal their ideas they know they know we're
54:53
just going to cast ourselves as everything yeah and it's going to be very homoerotic
55:00
so but strangely homophobic as well yeah
55:04
exactly yeah just that multiple nerdgasm touch hey speaking of sci-fi did we talk
55:09
about the Dune trailer yet I don't think we did did you watch the I'm not sure we
55:13
did but I watched it it uh it looks good
55:17
it looks good it looks very it was not very terribly exciting other than it
55:23
looks like they remade the old Dune
55:26
movie yeah with a bigger budget and more
55:32
modern effects yeah so I'm a little I'm
55:36
I'm okay with it I I guess but uh but I wasow
55:41
something different yeah and I mean somebody who was not impressed by it was
55:46
uh Alejandro paraski who famously tried
55:50
to make a dune movie in the' 7s mhm
55:54
having never read the book yeah exactly why do you need to read the book that
55:58
was he read it when he started why would I I love that so I watched hok's June
56:03
which is a documentary about his film that was never made fantastic but yeah
56:07
that scene that sequence where someone he he he he was doing really well he was
56:10
making all these very very strange but but very successful films and then that
56:15
his producer friend said to him what do you want to make next and he said Dune
56:20
and he was like all right and then he went and sort out the rights on that and
56:22
then he said I don't know why I said Dune I've never i' never read it
56:27
I just knew it was very popular yeah terrible book to read yeah they told me
56:32
it was good so I was just like wonderful book like Dune yeah it is I've tried
56:38
it's too slow Matt have you watched any of um yosi's other movies no I do want
56:44
to though now yeah his first kind of breakaway hit is called El Topo the
56:48
mouse yes which is a a Weston now there's a lot of weird kind of I didn't
56:54
know he was in all of his films so that was an interesting thing to learn he's
56:58
the main character in eltop yeah I didn't I didn't know that that was I
57:02
didn't know he was like a you know he's that guy yeah okay he's the he's the
57:07
Mexican oron Wells he is a fascinating character I got to say absolutely from
57:12
watching this documentary because he was talking about he wanted to make Dune
57:15
because he wanted to make he he he said he talks about himself as a prophet and
57:19
he wanted to make a film that would alter the consciousness of young people
57:25
and make the world a better place and he he like he seems serious about it and
57:30
he's he was really upset that he didn't get to change the world with his film
57:35
like genuinely like not not in a [ __ ] way like he seems like he's
57:40
serious about that and I was kind of like huh I kind of wish he'd gotten to
57:44
make this thing but then again maybe it's better that he didn't well there is
57:46
something strangely esoteric about all of his films he's a very very purely
57:52
creative kind of guy and I love that story Dan oanon tells about how they
57:57
just smoked weed together and then wheni was telling him about Dune apparently
58:03
this Kaleidoscope of colors came out of his face like I can't tell it the way
58:07
Dan OB tells it because Dan obana was [ __ ] crazy he's amazing but he said
58:12
that like he was convinced by this mystical power that he had and I'm like
58:16
this movie would have been mind-blowing I'm sure yeah yeah but he wasn't
58:21
impressed with the trailer he said this looks like industrial Cinema which means
58:25
the money comes first and it's a you
58:30
know it's a safe Hollywood film and he's understandably cynical about that cuz
58:35
that's why his film didn't get made it's because they looked at it and they went
58:39
no mhm and then they gave it to David Lynch I think this looks well done I
58:45
think it looks quite good and it's a fairly good trailer what I find
58:49
interesting about it is that it's very dark and very kind of gloomy for a film
58:55
that's set almost entirely out in the desert indirect in the hot sun in
59:02
sunlight yeah yeah I guess I was hoping too for some of the visuals do because
59:08
David Lynch's version kind of took it in a really like 80s campy sci-fi Direction
59:15
and I was hoping that this would go back to that more betterin in the desert kind
59:19
of vibe that the original like cover art of the old
59:24
novels the first editions had M um but this looks very similar to the 80s
59:31
version in fact people have done mashups where they've remade the trailer but
59:34
with shots out of the old one I wonder if that was a studio thing or if that's
59:39
really what he wanted like I don't know I guess we'll never you'll never really
59:42
know because but I've I've liked all of his movies so far so I'm going to
59:46
certainly give them a chance speaking of the Lynch one I love that scene where he
59:50
is talking about how he went and saw the Lynch one and he didn't want to see it
59:53
because he was really upset about how he never got to make it and then he go he's
59:57
talking about he goes in to see it his son convinced him and he was there going
1:00:00
oh God oh God and then the film started and he was like oh my God it's awful
1:00:06
yeah he was he had a big smile on his face he was like what a failure
1:00:12
fantastic yeah yeah yeah well his son was going to pay play Paul a trades yeah
1:00:18
he's he he two years he forced him to learn martial arts 6 hours a day to do
1:00:24
this that's what I like again listen watch H's junit it's fascinating mate
1:00:29
his son is in elpo as his sidekick and he's naked the entire time it's just
1:00:34
this little 10-year-old boy with no clothes on following his dad around on a
1:00:38
horse yeah ask he's interesting you do so weird but very like I that sounds odd
1:00:44
but I'm sure he he seems like one of those really genuine artists who's like
1:00:48
no no no there's a reason to it like there's a scene that they show from no
1:00:53
no from uh the Mount of God what's it called H Holy Mountain sorry yeah where
1:01:00
a guy shits a gold brick or something and then I mean I haven't seen it in
1:01:05
context but he when he talks about it all the shit's out of context even when
1:01:09
you see it but the way that he talks about it you know like you know there's
1:01:13
some people who do something like that and you can tell it's just they just
1:01:17
making [ __ ] up whereas when he talks about it you can tell that he meant
1:01:22
something mhm whether it comes across or not abstract
1:01:26
and nonsensical but but means something to him exactly yeah he did there's a
1:01:31
reason that he there's a guy taking a [ __ ] and it's a gold brick like it's not
1:01:35
as opposed to say David Lynch who just like I thought it' be weird yeah he
1:01:39
asked me do you want to blow up the cabin and I was like can we do that and
1:01:43
then I was like absolutely let's blow up the cabin yeah I started watching some
1:01:48
of his um Co lockdown weather
1:01:52
reports yeah yeah what a guy I love
1:01:57
here again I know I think Lynch does tap into
1:02:02
something a bit interesting but I also I know what you mean occasionally does Yeah Yeah by
1:02:09
accident hoski seems a bit more focused with it also [ __ ] this was going to
1:02:13
have auson wells in it anyway watch H's tune fascinating and I'm Nicholas
1:02:18
warning refin is a weird dude yeah winding or
1:02:23
winding I I can never figure it out I think I always try to say it in a way
1:02:27
that doesn't quite sound like either does he I don't know to shame him or
1:02:30
anything is he have a speech impediment I found him hard no he's Danish I think
1:02:34
he's is that what that is yeah he sounded he sounds very American but then
1:02:39
every now and then he says a word and I'm like I had to think about what is he
1:02:42
saying any that that probably explains that that's that's slipping through but
1:02:47
he's also a little bit on the Spectrum as well yep okay yeah I picked up on
1:02:51
that I mean I'm no I'm no psychologist but m
1:02:56
the man's obsessively focused yeah there's a great documentary that his
1:03:01
wife made about him uh making and I can't remember if it's drive or the one
1:03:07
that came after Drive uh only God forgives um but it's just about her
1:03:13
documentary on her husband becoming just obsessive about each film that he makes
1:03:19
yeah right and it's really interesting I forget the title driver is very good so
1:03:25
I watch uh your drive is excellent Drive is excellent have you watched Valhalla
1:03:29
Rising no okay I think it came out one or two films before drive it's got Maz
1:03:36
Michelson in it and it's uh it's about Vikings well now I've got to watch that
1:03:41
and need I say more yes it's a very good movie and you should watch okay then
