1:01
news yeah if you want I haven't got any news but I certainly played it in my car
1:05
this week oh so did I because I finally played it in the game that's why I put
1:11
Herald of darkness in the spreadsheet because what a song What A sequence it's
1:16
it's so funny right I knew that this was in the game
1:20
because it was it was hard not to know because every was talking about this
1:24
seen the game awards exactly yeah but with no context I was like oh that's
1:28
that's cool it's a cool song song funny Musical and everyone kept telling me cuz
1:32
I I I I've mentioned this on before on the show I was playing Allan Wick to I
1:35
you play as Allan or you play as Saga who's saga's in the real world Allan's
1:40
in the dark place it's just for people who don't know I know you know Dan
1:43
obviously you've played the game infinite times but yeah but we're not
1:45
talking to each other we're talking to the audience that's right and so I for
1:49
some reason just got very engrossed in saga's side of things and only did the
1:54
very first section that you play as Allan and he's just been waiting the bit
1:58
that you have to yeah yeah and Jenna's Jenna's finished the game now
2:02
including the DLC so um including the brand new DLC from this week correct
2:08
yeah wow yeah well I mean she's bedridden sure so because she had yeah
2:14
had she's fine she's fine she's an old lady yeah we've never actually mentioned
2:18
how old she is she's 80 yeah no no she's fine she's just recovering from um some
2:24
surgery and so she's I shout out to her but I know she doesn't listen so no
2:28
point she definitely does not listen um and so she was like she's like oh
2:34
that musical thing I was like what she's like oh you must have done that bit and
2:38
I was like no I don't what you're talking about she's like how have you
2:39
not done that it's like the best thing in a game ever I is it really is yeah
2:44
yeah and then everyone's been telling me how good it is and all this kind of
2:46
stuff and I was thinking it's going to be underwhelming when I finally do it it
2:51
wasn't no it's incredible it is isn't it and it just keeps going and no matter
2:56
how long it takes you to perform that level I it just keeps going I waited
3:01
because I was I'm just going to watch this yeah and like and then when I when
3:05
it was clear okay this bit's done I'll move on a bit because I I was it's just
3:10
I [ __ ] smile on my face man I always like that in the film there's a bit in
3:15
the story no spoilers but there's a bit later on where you go to a cinema and
3:19
there's a there's a [ __ ] Thomas Zayn movie playing on the screen and of
3:22
course it's in finish so funny in this I know and it stars Sam Lake right as it's
3:27
speaking it's as Alex Casey
3:36
enemies time apparently at least half an
3:40
hour I was because listeners who don't
3:44
know Alan Wake is two people there's the voice actor and then there's the the the
3:51
the person the physical actor yeah and but then Thomas Zayn is the it's just
3:58
vill yeah just the guy who looks like Alan Wake doing his noral voice it's so
4:02
weird hearing him talk in just his noral accent I saw an interview
4:07
him W being Voice overed by an american guy yeah who is the doctor from control
4:14
who does his own face I haven't played control I should yeah he's also in the
4:19
hway DLC but uh you're not there yet but um yeah I saw an interview with Vil this
4:26
week where he says Thomas Zayn is his preferred character because it's all him
4:31
like he gets to do the voice and the physicality of it and so he's he owns that character
4:37
yeah it's so funny because all of this
4:40
stuff I was like this is not the same as the first game but I don't care yeah
4:47
it's fine you know they've just it's it's just on theme not
4:52
technically yes but what I learned
4:56
because I did a deep dive after I played this the first time right I've played it
5:02
twice now but I was like just [ __ ] mad for it and I found out that there's
5:07
a whole lot of like supplementary material like I mentioned there was a
5:12
web series and I found out the web series The live action web series came
5:15
out before the first game before Alan Wake 1 as marketing collateral for Alan
5:21
Wake 1 they shot this whole prequel
5:23
which is all set in the it's in the town bright Falls but it's it's specifically
5:30
about the sanitarium with the Doctor Who oh yeah you know does the experiments on
5:35
artists right is that the thing in in the in the remaster there's QR codes
5:39
around and if you scan your phone that's what that
5:43
is yeah so it's that plus well actually there they're separate but you're
5:50
supposed to scan those and then the way that it the way that it's supposed to work
5:55
is you scan that the QR codes in the game and you put your own phone number
6:00
in and then when you are playing the game like on the Xbox and you get to a
6:06
certain point where you're taking a phone call your actual phone will ring
6:10
and you'll hear that phone call on your phone I wish that had happened evidently
6:16
it never happened that way even at
6:20
launch but you could still call yeah and hear it like on a on a recording or
6:26
something but but they were thinking they were always
6:30
of this like yeah I I really respect the way they try stuff like Luke's talked
6:36
before I haven't played Quantum break neither I don't think any of us have I'm
6:41
really should but I know Luke's explained basically you play a level and
6:44
then you watch an hour of a television show that they shot and it's part of the
6:49
game and like I just respect the yeah the [ __ ] have just come up with an
6:54
idea let's just [ __ ] try it and even in the first day and wake when you just
6:57
watch night Springs episodes on TV game just so unique even Alan Wake to quite
7:04
often I'm asking myself am I watching a rendered character or a filmed actor
7:10
right now like it's not always obvious it does yeah transitions yeah because
7:14
especially when you're um during the musical
7:17
Thing the TV you you hold to access the TV and it zooms in and then it it's it
7:23
does transition to FMV yes kind of but not FMV like going
7:30
through into the yeah it's a very clever however they're doing it it looks cool
7:35
yeah it's a good effect and even the like the brothers with their commercials
7:39
that you can watch you know you get an achievement for finding one of their
7:41
commercials and watching it too but like [ __ ] love those guys they're so good
7:45
yeah yeah I started playing the same actor I think you're right I don't know
7:51
why I didn't notice and I don't know why Luke didn't notice it's just a guy and
7:55
the same guy with beard yeah yeah St who just takes one step to the left on green screen
8:00
andil yeah um I I I downloaded and began
8:05
playing the um lake house the new DLC
8:09
the lake house seems awfully cool um just haven't haven't had much of a
8:14
chance yet but uh we'll continue really want to properly play control L to go
8:20
still I know I have good and there's a couple of false endings for max pay 2
8:25
you feel like you're coming Max P for Alan Wake you feel like you're coming to
8:29
the end and then there's there's more so okay just enjoy it just hope it never
8:35
ends I did dip into something else briefly this week I did to do a couple
8:40
of things just to try them out because I wanted to talk about them they looked
8:43
very interesting there was a Halloween sale yes there was week and I grabbed uh
8:49
well you go you go first I know what you you purchased a few things right I did
8:53
well yeah I so I went I went to purchase one game because Luke and I we mentioned
8:58
this last week Matt when we were at Pax Cult of the Lamb was by far the most
9:04
important game there like seen it had an enormous onr activation yeah two
9:11
separate weddings occurred in the the chapel that they had built real world
9:15
weddings okay that's cool I didn't know that and there was just at various times
9:20
rituals like just like cult rituals that occurred there and then just the rest of
9:25
the time there was the longest line at packs for God knows what
9:30
just to take a picture there to get something for free for a game been out
9:33
for a while now yeah at least a couple of years right what whatever people like
9:37
it and neither Luke or I have played it Luke has now finished it okay purch bit
9:42
I purchased it day before yesterday it's pretty good I'm not addicted to it
9:46
though no no I didn't get addicted to it the people who were there seem [ __ ]
9:50
addicted like it seems like they've forsaken all other games now you know
9:54
they're just they're just Cult of the Lamb devotees rather than I didn't get
9:58
the impression that it would be that kind of game for me when I played it
10:02
give it another shot at some point but it just it certainly didn't catch me off
10:05
the right off the bat I think when not young enough yeah maybe or lonely enough
10:12
speak for yourself Dan problems at home mat no I think it's
10:16
a game for people who have a lot of time have a lot of time
10:20
Lely yeah I am never alone I am never ever
10:26
Alone um yeah so I played that but of course Halloween sales are on so I I bought I
10:32
bought at least three other games I bought uh auin um that's a great game
10:38
mate which I already owned on Gog but but I just you got on switch I got it on
10:44
switch cuz I figured it would be got on switch it's great it's a great game yeah
10:48
and I bought dredge which also a great game the only drawback I bought that on
10:54
switch 2 the only drawback and I thought it' be a good switch game and I still
10:57
think it might be but [ __ ] the text is little and I checked and you can't make it
11:01
bigger so it's really straining my old
11:04
man eyes okay I guess I'm fortunate yeah I didn't have that problem and I bought
11:11
like three other games too I'm beginning to have that problem with things but
11:15
yeah yeah yeah yeah ruined them um and then for some reason even though I had
11:20
all these new games I went and played from start to finish through Rusty Lake
11:23
hotel um cuz it just popped into my brain and I was like I finished that but
11:27
not with all the achievements so yeah no those are good that whole series is good
11:32
that's the best one though hotel for me is is the best yeah the others are very
11:37
very fragmented little tiny chapters that just kind of Stack you could do one
11:41
and then just walk away whereas hotel has one overarching storyline that I I
11:46
enjoyed what's the one that's set on the island that one was that's Paradise okay
11:51
that one was good that is good yeah so I'm playing Roots at the moment which is
11:54
the second one so Hotel comes first then Roots which is the backstory of the
11:58
whole family [ __ ] it's dark man some dark [ __ ] in this there's a lot of dead
12:03
kids I met those guys at pack once before I knew like they had those what's
12:08
the one with the the white room yeah White Room Escape Cube yeah they just
12:13
had those ones right kind of at that point yeah and I've since bought them but I
12:19
haven't played them yeah they're less uh less elaborate than the the later ones
12:26
yeah although I've heard that some of the later ones incor
12:30
throw away things from those early ones as if it was a planned Universe which is
12:34
you know that's nice I hear you guys saw the Drifter at PS which I'm jealous of
12:39
yeah we did it looks great I'm a big fan of powerof yeah
12:44
David YouTube channel oh really yeah I should check that out actually yeah yeah
12:49
yeah he makes power quest which is the unity engine that I would make a game in
12:56
if I ever had the [ __ ] time to make a game it's a Unity uh plug I guess that he's
13:03
made and and documented like yeah yeah he's he's [ __ ] smart dude with more
13:09
time in his hands than than I can even comprehend this yeah the right amount of
13:13
time you need yeah to make a game he's a super into games and he does they do
13:17
game jams and he's made just on his own made these uh kind of quest for Glory
13:21
style short games for Game jams and he's continuing that I just it's someone that
13:26
I watch on YouTube I'm just in awe of like he's so I mean he's focused in a
13:31
way that I'm not it just makes these things that I'm just like that's [ __ ]
13:35
rad yeah you can live vicariously by just watching yeah actually guys like
13:39
that make me feel better about because sometimes I think people pull it out of
13:43
their ass and I'm like oh [ __ ] they're Geniuses and I'm and I'm not a genius
13:47
but no these guys work [ __ ] hard yeah yeah yeah yeah he's focused specific
13:52
skills and uh yeah they're impressive and The Drifter looks incredible yeah
13:58
yeah yeah it looks very good yeah had had a little play looks good so what did
14:03
you play this week I purchased uh in the Xbox sale uh I don't even I just saw it
14:10
and I was like what is that it's called killer frequency mhm and uh it's like
14:15
just a little game um where you play as a radio DJ in a small town you used to
14:22
work in Chicago and you know be this big kind of big big shop but now you're in
14:27
this small town something happened I don't know what it is yet maybe it'll
14:30
come up you in this small town with like
14:32
30 35 listeners at midnight every
14:37
night you're on the on air one night the deputy calls in the sheriff's been
14:42
murdered by a serial killer who haunt who was active you know 20 30 years ago
14:48
and everyone thought they were dead they're back the whistling man is back
14:53
they've got to go to the next town to get help cuz the the phone you can't
14:58
make longest phone for some reason it doesn't matter it doesn't matter it's
15:02
very tongue and just doesn't want to spend the extra dollar it's very tongue
15:04
and cheek uh and then she's like well I got to Rite all the 911 calls to you
15:09
because there's no one else here to take them everyone's dead so Jesus Christ so
15:13
now you just answer 911 calls on air yeah right and uh and you have to try
15:18
and help people not get killed and the scenarios are always different and then
15:22
and you can do [ __ ] like I it's just funny like you can hit sound effects on
15:27
the soundboard like it's like I can't go that way the killer
15:30
say just it's just amusing myself and you get achievements for doing silly
15:35
stuff amazing but there's things like cuz you can get up and walk around and
15:41
you go out into the office and look up stuff like there's one where the woman's
15:44
like trapped in my car and the Killer's outside but I dropped my car keys I
15:47
don't have my car keys I don't know how to hot wire a car and you're like hang
15:50
on and then you get on peggies your the girl who works like we have a car show
15:55
don't we she's like yeah yeah it's on Sunday their office is down the hall so
15:59
you go down find a magazine a magazine that tells you how
16:03
to hotwire a car and so you pull that up and you go read me the serial number and
16:09
and it's it's it's cool I'm looking at it now the art style is
16:12
amazing and it looks just like a recording studio like a like an audio
16:16
it's good fun great like it's very silly but but it's it's fun yeah and there
16:20
another one the guy faxes he's like the killer stalking me through the office um
16:24
and then you're like oh what if I call a phone extension to lure him off and he's
16:28
like I'll fax you layout of the office and you have to go get a fax machine and
16:31
stuff it's just cool amazing is it recommend it present time
16:37
or is it it looks like it might be set in the 80s although I think it's it's
16:41
got more like I think a lot of Gamers now a lot of devs cuz they're our age
16:44
they grew up in the ' 80s everything just kind of looks like it might be the
16:48
80s oh oh one of us dropped out there you're back oh yeah oh we're back we're
16:54
back y seems like we um I wish listed another game the other day called
17:00
198x have you heard of this I have but I don't know why it's about a kid hanging
17:05
out in a arcade in the ' 80s and they're depressed or something I I don't know
17:10
the the bigger story but they're playing a bunch of arcade games and so you you
17:13
play the arcade games as well as you play this point and click that's the the main
17:19
story interesting yeah I I mean I don't I couldn't decide if it looked good or
17:25
if it just looked interesting so I was I was okay with it it's tough right
17:28
because because I I'm looking at this and I'm like I don't know if I'd be
17:32
bother playing that part of it um and I'm like oh that looks cool
17:37
but yeah same because often mini games turn you off I literally stopped playing
17:43
Bully because of a that's right yeah yeah uh but I think it's always him it's
17:50
always the kid in the game so maybe that and maybe there's things in the game
17:54
that that gives you story yeah if they if they do it well hopefully hopefully
17:59
it is that but yeah it looks interesting
18:04
oh you've got to play ads um during the radio show obviously and people and
18:09
people call in and and anyway the the pizza place in town is called ponte's
18:13
Pizza mhm and so there's lots of little references like that yeah as soon as you
18:19
said recording booth small town py pool except this is a serial killer instead
18:23
of yeah whatever that was no yeah but there's lots of little nods to horror
18:28
movies and yeah amazing and things yeah the streets all have like you know like
18:34
U names I can't not yeah nothing comes to mind but they're
18:39
all Avenue or something Street or whatever yeah nice yeah yeah I watched a
18:45
a [ __ ] ton of horror movies this month
18:49
uh I did too and I I basically I did uh I did I didn't watch a couple of modern
18:54
ones but I won't bother going into those but what I really watched was a lot of Universal
19:01
1930s horror and I wanted to watch them because there's a few that I realized I
19:06
had never seen before cuz there they made a lot right um I skipped a couple
19:10
that I'd seen a lot I'd seen Dracula a lot I've seen the mommy a lot yeah I've
19:15
seen Frankenstein a lot but I watched it because it's just so good and Bride of
19:19
Frankenstein is even better and I worked out that the director of those to James
19:23
whale all the ones that he directed are the best so he also did the Invisible
19:28
Man which I'd never seen before but is [ __ ] excellent okay and um have to do
19:33
do a rewatch of some now as well yeah and the funny thing is for but then on
19:39
Halloween night I'd watch I'd watched a lot of these on Halloween night I
19:42
decided to watch Young Frankenstein the M Brooks comedy movie right yes yes
19:47
which is such a good movie like it is good because when the jokes are dumb
19:54
they're dumb movie the performance of everyone but especially
20:00
of Gene Wilder is so sincere that everything just works like it's and like
20:05
the photography the music everything is like it's a horror movie not like it's a
20:09
comedy so they really lean into it but the funny thing is I was watching it
20:13
going I know the story line This is son of Frankenstein from Universal from the
20:20
30s is the exact plot ancestor of um you
20:25
know the Frankenstein goes back to Germany cuz he inherits the house when
20:29
the real Frankenstein dies he's got no interest in anything the people in the
20:32
town don't trust him because they don't want another monster made and then while
20:35
he's there a [ __ ] Constable with a wooden arm warns him don't be [ __ ]
20:39
around with [ __ ] he's like don't worry I've got no interest in this but then he
20:42
finds the journal and he goes oh maybe I could do this and he makes his own
20:45
monster there's no mention that this is a a parody of one specific movie movie
20:51
yeah but there you go I've got some more
20:55
movie parody news later okay okay do you know was that intentional or was that
21:01
just a coinci I mean sounds like it must have been intentional but there's
21:04
nothing in the in the credits that says based on son of Frankenstein or anything
21:08
like that at the same time no like 50 years apart yeah I was going to
21:13
say yeah H did you we didn't talk about this I don't think I mentioned it I
21:18
think just to Luke did we talk about it have you seen as above so
21:22
below no but I did bookmark it when you mentioned it yeah okay well I I won't
21:28
talk about it again but yeah you should watch that it's good okay I'll I'll I'll
21:31
bump it to the top of the list I watched another Netflix one just this week uh
21:36
which I'll mention because it's new we watched some older stuff too and I've
21:41
blanked on what it was um but anyway I watch don't move which is uh one of the
21:48
top things on Netflix right now yeah that's not a sequel to don't breathe is
21:53
it I don't I don't know cuz that was good this is good uh it yeah it is good
22:00
it's um it's tame I would say uh which is not
22:06
a bad thing it's just that um I think everyone's been talking about terrifier
22:10
three this is not that this is it's basically a a woman
22:15
who goes hiking in uh in big so National Park in California oh and gets abducted
22:21
by a man who injects her with a paralytic that completely freezes her um
22:27
but she manag nightmare stuff she manages to get away
22:31
shortly before it kicks in or whatever but then it's it's it's good like it's
22:35
very good but she's essentially laying in the woods unable to move going what
22:38
the [ __ ] am I going to do now yeah yeah and then stuff happens and you know yeah
22:43
no it's it's well I know what I'd do if I was there be like it's not your lucky day
22:48
[Laughter] darl uh yeah it's good I recommend it uh
22:54
I enjoyed it yes okay it doesn't sound anything like the sequel to don't
22:57
breathe which is about kids that break into a blind maniac's house yes is that
23:04
fed Alvarez the alien Romulus director oh maybe it is yeah you could be right
23:09
you could be right I heard you talk about that the other week I did he you
23:13
mention your opinion on so I'll just ask deep fake Ian Holm what do you think
23:19
of that well I mean the the effect was
23:25
[ __ ] garbage like and I'm waiting for some kid to go here's my better version
23:30
of it that I did in my bedroom they always do that but like unnecessary and
23:36
in fact all of the reasons there's no need for all of all of the things that
23:41
tied it directly into the other Alien movies were unnecessary stop doing that
23:47
you don't need to do that the I my least favorite thing in the whole movie I
23:51
don't think I mentioned this when we talked about literally my least favorite
23:53
thing in the whole movie was when the the Android character who I forgotten
23:58
his name name who I loved great character Andy the Android Andy the
24:01
Android Great Character he should not have said get away from him oh I no come
24:06
on cut that out of the movie come on it was also almost like he didn't want to
24:10
say it like the actor was like get away from her you it was like a force [ __ ]
24:15
he looks over yeah Alvarez is like say it yeah no Alvarez is there gone my
24:21
hands are tight there's a producer behind there going yeah that's right yeah
24:27
yeah oh look a very good movie yeah more like
24:32
that please choices but just tone it down yeah didn't I didn't Ash didn't
24:38
need to be there and and like I said the I don't understand why they couldn't
24:42
have just shown him briefly and then just had him be on the [ __ ] radio so
24:46
we don't have to look at that cuz it was so bad yeah we didn't need to
24:51
see he wasn't doing anything he was just sat there looking not real anyway
24:57
whatever yeah which is funny because arguably the worst shot in the original alien is also
25:03
a shot of him where they Bobble his head on this yeah that's right yeah there's a bad cut
25:10
bizarre with all the stuff they fixed they'd left that in but then look at um
25:16
Alien 3 when she gets bishop and it's an it's an animatronic Lance henriksson
25:21
yeah right um yes I mean that's more convincing to be honest because it is
25:28
Android yeah yes like yeah yeah who are you trying to fo it's a robot yeah
25:34
exactly yeah that's yeah anyway I mean look we don't have to harp on about it
25:39
but the the whole the whole thing for
25:45
me about the first alien movie is
25:53
that correct me if I'm wrong but they they set it up like it was kind of a
25:57
coincidence that they picked up on this distressed signal right and then Bishop
26:00
had like his protocols were if you encounter alien life [ __ ] all other
26:07
they forfeit their um bonus if they don't stop for a distress signal you
26:14
they've got an obligation I think that's the setup is that there's an obligation
26:17
like you get a distress signal and they're like oh can we just keep going
26:20
and then no we're get in [ __ ] you get in trouble you have to help people like
26:24
yeah yeah and then they find this [ __ ] ship piloted by an unknown other
26:31
alien entity let's just leave it at that sure that's also been attacked by a
26:35
third unknown alien entity which then gets aboard their ship and and now
26:40
they're [ __ ] that's interesting yeah the entire world being populated by that
26:45
one dude and his buddies yeah less
26:48
interesting yes yeah there's no need for I mean it makes sense that they would be
26:53
multi well they set it up in alien Covenant CU there's two David
27:00
models the I think that's the problem is that there just everything's too reliant on
27:06
David now and everything's too reliant too tied back into the engineers and I'm
27:10
still not sure did the engineers seed all life on Earth or just human life
27:14
like did monkeys drink that water or was there no life like uh that's a good
27:20
question I'm guess CU then why do we look like life yeah yeah but then it
27:24
would have started with Omas yeah and then lizards
27:29
and over complicated it in in Alien I yeah I think and we were saying before
27:34
was that like they weren't sent there to get the alien it's a coincidence yeah
27:39
I'm pretty sure that's what supposed to be I think I think that has been changed
27:45
yeah behind the scenes somewhat yeah but I don't like that cuz I don't I don't
27:50
think that was the intention no it's scarier that it was an accident yeah and
27:57
cuz there's this implication now that mother took him there on purpose but
28:01
that doesn't make any sense exactly exactly yeah that they were looking for
28:06
that ship like communicates with the company the company's like yeah we want
28:11
that whatever that is yeah that's right this over your other we don't care about
28:17
them like that's right we can replace
28:20
them so long as you bring that land yeah
28:24
yeah I think what because they saw signs
28:28
on that but not because that was their invention that had got free correct yeah
28:34
or that they even knew about it beforehand I maintain they didn't know
28:38
what it was no one even believed Ripley in Aliens correct yes yes and when
28:44
Gorman said xenomorph xenomorph he just meant an alien yeah yeah that's of some
28:50
sort not name is zenor John xenomorph yeah I maintain that that the case and
28:57
alien Romulus the way I read it confirms that because he refers to it as xenomorph
29:03
xx7 whatever the [ __ ] as in there's lots of things called thing would have be
29:08
xenomorph like blah blah blah blah blah Z you know if we go to EUR NASA gets to
29:13
Europa and they find something under the water that will be xenomorph one yeah
29:19
because it's the first one we found yeah
29:22
yeah yeah yeah Zeno meaning other and I
29:27
I know that's not what it means in the larger thing I don't care that's what
29:32
that's what it means in my head that's what I think the intention was you know
29:36
well now that films are written by corporations and not and not by writers
29:40
who who [ __ ] knows I did get uh I talked about the the cold forger that
29:45
alien book that apparently makes it so you know they face huggers put the goo
29:49
in instead of we talked about that and I think with Luke I talked about it uh I
29:53
got the book haven't read it yet so we'll see if I make it through it
29:58
yeah I saw somebody somebody I follow online got his hands on the allenan
30:03
Foster alien adaptation yeah well I want it
30:09
now have yeah I have the first three Alien aliens and alien
30:13
three the three Alien movies that there are yeah the three yeah the three Alien
30:17
movies yeah alien and it's two very good sequels yeah yeah they're all by him
30:24
yeah awesome yeah want want
30:29
H um all right well before we go off movies then yes I was watching a movie
30:36
this week an older movie that I'd seen before many times and like very much
30:41
right and I was watching it and enjoying it and it suddenly occurred to me that
30:46
it's the exact same plot as another movie I've seen many times and like very
30:50
much and not just similar but the exact same plot and I'd never noticed this
30:55
before endings are different I'll caveat this but let me describe the plot to you Matt
31:00
jump in anytime you think you know what movie I'm talking about okay a
31:06
policeman is called out to a remote island to investigate a missing
31:13
woman when he gets there everyone on the
31:17
island is acting kind of strange mhm and they seem to all be in onon a secret
31:22
he's not privy to mhm and he assumes they know where this woman is is MHM and
31:28
they're not telling him as he investigates he starts to suspect there
31:34
may not even have been a woman at all to have gone missing mhm and then it's
31:39
revealed that he was called there on purpose and everyone on the island is
31:44
playing along pretending they don't know him when they do know him the plot of
31:47
shudder Island it is the plot of Shutter Island it's also the plot of the
31:52
wickerman huh what I was watching
32:01
Charli the W translation not the bees not the bees not the bees I'm watching
32:06
The Wicker man the 1970s version Christopher Lee and you know Edward
32:10
Woodward and I'm like this is shudder Island interesting yeah okay like beat
32:17
by beat just like different setting and obviously a completely different ending
32:22
yeah but just if you were to plot out just just the beats it' be identical
32:28
that's interesting I never thought of that now I want to watch shter
32:33
Island yeah it's very good except for some reason this weird
32:39
shot when they're standing on the cliffs green screen behind them is like they
32:42
couldn't find a blue sky so they just looks like the room yes exactly this
32:49
real Hollywood
32:53
movie T well I going to watch both of those I
32:59
haven't seen the original Wick man in a long time I'm it's sad to say I've seen
33:03
the Nicholas Cage one more recently than the original I actually I really like
33:06
the Nicholas Cage version yeah right but it's just not as scary like I find the
33:11
original one terrifying I remember being much creepier and yeah I mean it's dated
33:16
a lot it's got a lot of weird musical sequences in it that go for way too long
33:20
but just the the the fact that this guy just doesn't know where he is or or
33:24
what's going on M and then when they bring him over the hill and he just sees
33:29
that big [ __ ] thing wicker man the Wicker man the titular wicker man yeah
33:34
it's just uh it's terrifying I'll watch that um trying to
33:40
think what else we watched it's gone for some it can't of
33:44
been that good what oh you know what I did watch I watched
33:48
um last Voyage of the demer oh and was that good it was all right yeah okay
33:55
yeah yeah Didn't I mean it looks like it could be very good I mean very visually
34:00
interesting and cool just a bit uh yeah I don't know it was it was good I
34:03
suppose we know how it ends so maybe that's part of it that that could be the
34:06
problem yeah is that I know they're not going to get this guy yeah so those who
34:10
don't know it's about uh if you've watched or read Dracula and if you
34:14
haven't you should uh any version in particular because yeah they all have
34:18
this bit they they all agree on this he was on a boat from Transylvania at some
34:22
point Transylvania and then he moves to London and he does that via boat and
34:27
this is the story of what happens on that boat it's called the demer and
34:31
again all accounts agree uh when it arrives in England nobody's alive on
34:37
there yeah so yeah strange plague aboard the ship yeah and uh I will
34:43
say I mean it's it's much more subtle in the the original in that people are like
34:49
I wonder what happened to everybody in this I think it's pretty obvious people
34:53
brutally murdered there's a vampire on this boat isn't there yes
34:58
yeah yeah um but it's quite good it's got some new stuff I don't think this is
35:01
in any other version where that that um obviously he's in a crate Dracula I mean
35:08
uh but he's also packed himself some food which I thought was an interesting
35:12
twist he's like a Romanian girl there well I mean you would have to wouldn't
35:17
you that he's packed to have a nibble on except you know there's a there's a bit
35:23
of a storm and she gets revealed is she a willing participant like um like a
35:29
thra kind of thing yeah is she a TH or is she a a prisoner she a prisoner
35:34
basically yeah yeah right and but these guy the the crew find her and they're
35:38
like and it's good cuz you know they're like a [ __ ] woman on board's bad luck
35:42
old you know an old you know SE thing and uh have you seen have you seen the movie yellow
35:48
beard no it's it's the montypython it's it's it's like The Unofficial
35:53
montypython movie because it's all of those guys plus every other British
35:56
comic from the early ' 80s making a pirate movie but seen it when I was
36:00
younger yeah yeah it's it's very funny but there's this everyone's trying to
36:05
bring a woman onto the boat and um and like there's he's like what's that and
36:10
these three guys are holding this big crocodile and he's like there it's a
36:15
crocodile they was like open it up and they open it up and the woman gets out
36:19
you know and he's like is that a woman
36:20
no this is um this is uh first mate
36:26
prostitute yeah yeah I I'm going to look it up cuz I bet
36:32
you I have seen this yeah yeah you I I saw it when I was a kid and didn't
36:35
realize it was a comedy I just thought it was a great PIR movie oh I've
36:37
definitely seen this look at him yeah I've definitely seen this but now I want
36:41
to watch it again yeah I kind of want to watch it again
36:45
too um but but I mean do watch last voice of De it's good yeah got uh what's
36:50
his name from um late night with the devil in it David malakan yeah he's good
36:57
oh okay okay yeah he is good he's proven himself to be quite good hasn't he good
37:01
actor yeah he's in it it's got yeah a few people that you would recognize and
37:05
uh it was quite good the Dracula yeah yeah yeah yeah I like like IDE monster
37:12
in this than he usually and well I also like the idea of rather than just
37:15
telling the whole story again let's just focus on one little bit and tell tell
37:19
this yeah it does it does suffer a bit from that thing where it's like you've
37:24
tried to put too much into yeah right like you've made it too much of a big
37:28
dramatic thing when in reality I think it was supposed to be just these people
37:32
got picked off and no one ever really figured out why yeah yeah where they
37:36
know what's going on yeah in interview of the vampire they have this kind of
37:40
parallel of that where they say um a strange disease broke out on the ship
37:45
and only lad and I seemed immune you
37:48
know you know and umn yeah lot but lots of funerals at sea but the SE were like
37:54
[ __ ] this this guy's caught it now you know like y
37:57
like still terrified but didn't think it was they just people died at Sea yeah
38:03
yeah yeah cuz I say this about the 1931 Dracula the First Act and the third act
38:08
are [ __ ] excellent everything in the middle is quite tedious
38:13
yeah well you got to watch what is it the Spanish version or Mexican version
38:17
it's it's better in some ways and worse in other ways you know what looks good though is
38:22
the no Fatu remake that's coming out yes that looks very good Robert Edgar
38:28
yes not let this down but do you know that there's also another noise forag
38:32
remake come out this year that's just come out which is literally a shot for
38:37
shot remake of the original and it was made
38:42
by I mean you can watch
38:47
that I mean as an exercise as a learning exercise
38:52
sure I guess you do that sometimes as a filmmaker how did you do that
38:58
[ __ ] see the problem is every time I try to those kids that remade red is the last
39:04
AR yeah yeah oh no but it exists it exists came
39:10
out this year but every time you Google it of course you get the more the more
39:12
popular one right it was like that year there were two Robin hoods or uh The
39:17
Prestige and The Illusionist oh yes yes lusion was okay it would have been a
39:23
fine movie if it didn't come out the same year as the prestige is [ __ ]
39:26
brilliant V shadowed it yeah I learned something this week well I guess a lot
39:30
of people learned something this week this is Star Wars
39:33
news um did you see this article there was an interview yeah I did I did
39:39
interesting and then I mean I don't know what to make of it but so the the what's
39:45
his name this uh concept and storyboard
39:48
artist Ian mcag was interviewed just like just this last week for the 25th
39:54
anniversary of The Phantom Menace which is terrifying five years
39:58
ago and he said originally or for a Time the older Jedi in the movie was named
40:05
Obi-Wan and the younger Jedi was named Quon and it was very poignant that at
40:10
the end as Obi-Wan dies Darth maore kills Obi-Wan and Quon defeats Darth
40:15
Moore and stays with his master as he dies and he not only takes on his
40:20
master's Quest but takes his name so Quon becomes
40:25
Obi-Wan and I was like oh it's and it was always the same
40:31
casting it's the same character who becomes Guinness and that's why later on
40:35
WE says Obi-Wan that's a name I've not heard like except he has because that
40:39
was the first of three prequels so everyone in in in in you took on that
40:45
name for the next yeah in Attack of the Clones were people calling him Obi
40:48
wonder where they calling him Quon it would make more sense if he changed his
40:51
name the Qui-Gon yes and then they was like [ __ ] Obi-Wan what do you know
40:55
that's what he meant yeah maybe that was the twist maybe it was his name was
40:59
Obi-Wan at the end he goes oh I'm Qui-Gon now and then that would make
41:02
more sense that when he was older and he was like Obi-Wan I mean still
41:05
unnecessarily confusing yeah not yeah it's better to just have left it but
41:10
yeah I mean it wasn't a great disguise anyway like if you don't want someone to
41:14
find you change both your names not just the first name no I'm um Mick ham yeah
41:21
I'm John H the actor yeah yep
41:25
sure y I'm not John Ham just for the record oh
41:32
you're not if anyone's looking for John Ham yeah but if John Ham was murdered
41:38
you might take his exactly name and his future roles yeah you'd be in baby
41:43
driver to we were involved in a big sword fight he was killed I killed the
41:48
guy that killed him and now I am John Ham yeah yeah I'm I'll be Edgar right by
41:54
the end of the year that's how it works yeah that's how it works when you kill
41:57
the king you become the king
42:01
yeah so yeah George Lucas playing silly
42:05
buggers I mean the guy's got no shortage of ideas that's I was going to say this
42:10
is one of the just another thing on the pile that this this one he happened to cast
42:14
aside in there yeah up in there oh worse things have gotten in there more
42:19
complicated things RH of Reason by what oh I I don't understand why he selects
42:23
the things that he does to include and and exclude yeah
42:28
yeah I was watching Moana this week because he certainly does I was watching
42:33
Moana because as you do it is a good movie and it's like if if I was if I was
42:38
doing film structure lectures I would play Moana because it is literally beat
42:42
for beat the hero's journey you know refusal the call you know like just
42:47
everything it's beat for beat uses all the skills she learned during the movie
42:51
to defeat her got good songs goes back home great songs and that crab is just
42:57
[ __ ] hilarious yeah you can't run from me oh you can yeah um gerain but
43:03
Tamora Morrison does the voice of the dad of Mar's dad and you know how
43:08
somebody did that edit of Star Wars where they replaced James old Jones's
43:14
voice with other James or Jones quotes from other movies as Darth Vader I I
43:17
want to do that with with Boba Fett now and just be like Dad no don't go out
43:24
there it's dangerous didn't some I think someone did do once
43:31
were Warrior quotes into oh maybe yeah Star Wars at some point [ __ ] hell
43:35
yeah I want to bash here you can't yeah
43:40
exactly I mean it fits yeah definitely
43:43
does it fits uh there's a movie that's
43:47
out uh if you want to set sale and it's
43:51
called Joker folu or however you pronounce that not French I'm not going
43:57
to pronounce it so don't worry about it um but it uh yeah I haven't watched it
44:02
yet but I could watch it but I don't know that I will watch it is very bad I
44:08
have decided not to watch it um I like the first one and I'd like to led the
44:13
first one yeah but absolutely didn't need I mean look I mean I'm I'm against
44:19
unnecessary sequels at the best of times but I thought this one was immune to it
44:23
because it wasn't the you know typical DD DC movie yeah but I've heard nothing
44:29
but negative feedback about this movie both from people I usually agree with
44:34
and people I usually don't agree like the the internet come together to agree
44:37
this is garbage The only positive thing I've heard about this is that the
44:40
musical numbers though they are gratuitous and completely unnecessary
44:46
are well produced sure but like that doesn't help because why are they in
44:52
there why is it a musical yeah yeah exactly the only good review I've read
44:57
was quent and Tarantino did you read this review no okay so quent Tino wrote
45:02
a review about this okay but I don't know if he's taken the piss because this
45:06
is the most backhanded compliment field review I've I've ever read and I'm going
45:10
to read it out now verbatim right okay yeah okay Tarantino on Joker I really
45:15
really liked it that's how it opens Good Start I thought it was going to be an
45:19
arms length intellectual exercise at ultimately I wouldn't think worked as a
45:22
movie but that I would appreciate for what it was okay understand that's why
45:26
you went to see it and here he goes I mean it's a big mess
45:31
but I didn't find it an intellectual exercise cuz I got really caught up in
45:34
it I really like the musical sequences the more benal the songs were the better
45:38
it was okay backhanded compliment number one as much as the first one was
45:43
indebted to Taxi Driver this seems pretty [ __ ] indebted to natural-born
45:47
Killers which I wrote on top of that I thought it was really funny and I sort
45:51
at an almost empty theater where I could laugh without bothering anyone
46:01
then he knocks it out of the park it's like the Joker actually directed this
46:07
movie the entire concept even just spending the Studio's money on this it's
46:11
like the Joker would spend this money he offered you his hand in a handshake and
46:15
you get a buzzer with 10,000 volts shooting you he's saying [ __ ] you the
46:19
comic book kaks he's saying [ __ ] you to the audience he's saying [ __ ] you to
46:23
Hollywood he's saying [ __ ] you to anyone who owns stock at DC and water
46:29
brothers so so he actually don't know if he likes it on a level that when I think
46:35
sounds like he didn't like it as a film but he likes it because it it
46:40
entertained him on but entertained him because he couldn't believe how bad it
46:44
was by the sound of it that's not a review you want [ __ ]
46:48
interesting did you watch his um he was on Bill Mah not that long ago that was
46:54
very interesting I've gone off Bill Mah I must say so have I but that's why it's
46:58
good because Bill Mah has turned into this grumpy old man who's just [ __ ] got yeah
47:04
unnecessarily [ __ ] set in stone opinions about the weird he really just
47:09
got a handful of things he just [ __ ] wants you to admit or change your mind
47:12
to you're not an expert just be a bit more flexible and and it's it's very
47:15
good because quent Taran here is like no let me educate you like shut up and I
47:20
will educate and it's quite it's quite good and like they have a good um report
47:25
it was it was you know what's funny there used to be a TV show called iconic
47:29
clasts where they would take two celebrities in completely different
47:33
fields put them together for a day and watch them kind of learn about each
47:36
other's life that sounds cool yeah it was kind of cool and they did one where
47:39
they had Tarantino and Fiona Apple you know Fiona Apple that kind of like dark
47:43
pop star from the '90s um and them just hanging out and talking and stuff and it
47:47
was like so interesting like what would they say to which what would they ask
47:50
but I read this review I read this comment about her lately she was like
47:54
yeah he was a dick I was just I did not enjoy being around him for a day like oh
47:58
okay Taran a sh I don't know what to make of Tarantino because I've seen all
48:03
the you know the attacks the guy at Starbucks and all that kind of stuff and
48:07
I've but I've also I mean like like I don't know him but I've met him briefly
48:11
and I've seen him interact like been around while he's interacting and stuff
48:16
like that he was perfectly it was really nice so it's kind of like but then they
48:19
of course he was he's a [ __ ] celebrity at an event yeah I don't know
48:23
what to make it and then I seen some interviews like that [ __ ] interview
48:26
with that BBC guy who upsets everybody
48:30
who but but I think he was maybe the first of those interviews there's that
48:37
one and then there's the Robert Downey Jr one where it seems like they're the
48:40
only two where at the beginning of so there's this BBC interview who asks
48:44
you're there to promote a movie he'll ask you personal questions about stuff
48:47
because apparently he's there to be a serious journalist yeah yeah yeah even
48:51
though chances are your publicist has said only ask questions about the movie
48:55
that's all he's going to answer Robert Danny Jun when he's there to talk about
48:58
Avengers and he starts asking him about his alcoholism and his dad and Robert
49:01
Danny Jor is like I'm sorry did you not get the the paperwork on what the [ __ ]
49:06
this press junket was about and then and the guy's like well I've just want to
49:09
ask questions and Rob Dan all right takes the mic up and gets walk out yeah
49:13
and then the quent Tarantino one he's asking him um oh do you think violence in
49:20
movies encourage advance in real life or something like that and Quon tartino is
49:24
like I've already said all I've care to say about oh yeah but I want I want to
49:28
know what you think you want a sound bite that's yeah ter like no you want me
49:32
to tell you so you can you can print it and put your name on it and very but
49:37
then every interview after that with that guy seems like they know who he is
49:41
yeah and they're competitive right off yeah yeah yeah yeah they probably say
49:46
their agents book me on his show so I can get a bit of a thing going and other
49:49
people goes on to promote his book and it's very funny what could you even ask
49:54
him that would press the wrong buttons he goes uh he goes oh you know you're
49:58
quite go you're a celebrity too these days I've seen your interviews with Quon
50:02
Tarantino amazing yeah it's good but um yes I don't know what to make of
50:08
Tarantino was my what's my point like I don't know if he's a [ __ ] or if he's
50:13
not ack I think he's probably not a [ __ ] 99% of the times and if you
50:18
piss him off he's a [ __ ] and I think that that counts for just about everyone
50:22
I think that's sometimes about Ricky J as well oh yeah yeah yeah because I see
50:28
I see but but see Ricky ja I feel like tried to explain himself with extras
50:33
because I've seen Ricky ja behave poorly in public with celebrities I've also
50:38
seen him behave very nicely like there's actually uh I see on Instagram Instagram
50:43
shows me he'll go out for a jog or whatever and Paparazzi are always around
50:47
and he's always saying hi to them and he's like oh watch out don't back up
50:51
into the tree or whatever while they try follow him and
50:54
stuff and then but then also he yells at people and tells him to [ __ ] off yeah
50:59
and then there's an extras episode about when Andy becomes famous and people
51:03
harass him at the pub and he's like just let me I'm trying to have a beer yeah
51:07
yeah so I don't know yeah but then later that same episode he goes somewhere else
51:11
I think David Bowie writes a song about him and then he goes back to that pu and
51:14
he's like fat sorry
51:18
what [ __ ] great brilliant I hope
51:22
Ricky ja is like cuz I feel like I would be like that maybe that's why I'm a
51:28
little but I think I mean on that like if I if people were getting in my face
51:33
all the time I would not be pleasant like I just wouldn't I would get the
51:38
shits with it yeah same same especially if
51:43
like like it's one thing if it's like oh fans they love me and it's just getting
51:47
a bit too much that's one thing and it sounds ridiculous oh that people just
51:50
love me too much I [ __ ] hate it it's like yeah it's annoy [ __ ] off mate but
51:55
yeah I mean you and both met Neil G
51:59
separately brief moments but um lovely fellow yeah perfectly nice to us
52:05
obviously like but you know I mean sorry disqualify I'm not yeah you know I'm
52:09
just saying like I'm sure most people 99% of the time are perfectly decent but
52:14
if you're the one person do all those things he's being accused of they just
52:16
didn't to me yeah yeah exactly actually a really good and he he he if he feels
52:23
those impulses to tell you to [ __ ] off he doesn't act on them he's very good at
52:27
making you feel like you're very important while he's talking to you yeah
52:30
yeah I mean he did evict me when I wouldn't suck him off but
52:36
um um Rick Spence on um Lex fredman this
52:41
week he's a historian that specializes
52:44
in Cults conspiracy theories and um uh
52:50
to listen to that government intelligence agencies it's like such a
52:53
very specific thing to specialist specializ and teach in but he's he's
52:58
very funny and and Lex Freeman it's 4 hours long but Lex asks him at a certain
53:03
point like what have you learned about human beings by studying all this weird
53:07
stuff and he's like what I've learned is that human beings are all every single
53:12
one of them really nice just want to just get on with their day but every
53:17
single person has a Tipping Point and the Tipping Point is completely
53:22
unpredictable sure yeah like he started talking about Manson he's like [ __ ]
53:27
up until like the day before that Charles Manson might not have done all
53:30
that stuff you know like just they could have gone a completely other direction
53:35
if a couple of things had gone a bit better for him yeah well that this is not in the
53:41
normal timeline for Manson and we don't have to go do a deep dive on Manson but
53:46
there's that thing about how he went to help his friend who'd been held by a
53:50
drug dealer cuz he didn't have the money to pay him back or whatever and it was
53:53
just black guy it was a drug dealer and they went around and they shot him this drug
54:00
dealer went rescued their friend rescued their friend who wouldn't pay the drug
54:06
dealer got home and on the news that night it said one of the higher ups in
54:10
the Black Panthers had been killed and he apparently thought we [ __ ] killed
54:15
one of the hpes in the Black Panther there's a race W happening we need to
54:19
get ahead of this that's potentially why all that happened oh [ __ ] interesting
54:25
huh I mean the facts Checker I believe that he shot a black man definitely believe
54:31
that yeah yeah he didn't like them he did not like them I don't think he um I
54:36
think he don't think he ever denied that he did that so no yeah fair enough yeah
54:40
but then who [ __ ] knows he said yeah
54:45
yeah yeah well well well well
54:51
um on movies blade uh is not coming out there is no blade BL no blade there's no
54:58
blade it's not happening um the writing a new script
55:03
apparently that's how not happening it is oh okay yeah right so the actor that
55:08
they had had lined up for it go home do something else I guess I mean I feel
55:13
like he's he has been doing other stuff hasn't he if you been waiting I feel bad
55:17
for you mate that's righted canceling other things you know what I learned
55:21
today I learned a fact today when Pierce bronen signed on to be James Bond it was
55:27
in his contract he wasn't allowed to wear a tuxedo in any other context other
55:32
than on the set of the James Bond movie that's funny I mean I get it that
55:38
like if you're a Red Bull guy you're not allowed to be seen drinking a Monster
55:40
energy drink or whatever but just like nothing that James Bond would wear in
55:44
your private life was if there something P broen was going to be James Bond yes
55:49
Rem Steel wouldn't let him out of the contract yeah who
55:52
was was it Timothy dton who would have been then yeah and then yeah yeah okay
55:56
yeah he would have been um Living Daylights yeah basically Remington steel
56:00
had been canell and then the they so
56:04
then the you know the broccoli hired and announced that pce BR was going to be
56:10
James Bond and the hype of that led to Remington still being uncancelled yeah
56:15
right and he was still under contract so he had to go back and do
56:18
it there you go but that's how we got Timothy dton who look I know no they're
56:24
good um they're fine one of them's good I can't remember which one one was
56:28
better than the other yeah yeah the the one with um B Shield El Toro in it is
56:33
good yes the license living daylight license to Kill you're right yeah living
56:37
Daylight's is the one that's not that good I don't mind it still it starts off
56:41
it's got a really good pre-edit sequence where it's like all the MI6 agents on an
56:46
island like fighting each other in like a war games kind of scenario yeah yeah
56:51
that's some where he get gets the guy in the helicopter right is start of that
56:55
one yeah yeah I think so it's been a while but yes I think so and um that's
57:00
the one where the what's the what's the CIA agent lighter yeah Felix gets eaten
57:07
by a shark gets fed to a shark that's right yeah yeah that's a bit silly that
57:13
sequence I also learned that uh Judy
57:17
Dench auditioned for I think go finger or something like back in the' 60s like
57:24
she would have made a different kind of go finger do you mean the the char No No Yeah no
57:30
she was going to be one of the she was going to be
57:36
yeah yeah different or the Grace Jones character
57:41
from um oh yeah intense what's that movie Liv in that
57:48
day right Liv in that day is that that
57:52
one maybe Live and Let die I know why
57:57
you think it might be that one no is that not no is it not Live and Let Die
58:02
is the Louisiana one but I think she's
58:07
in oh I'm being racist am I yeah you are being racist but uh du to a Kill it's VI
58:13
kill yeah yeah yeah well I apologize no no no no there
58:20
aren't that many of them in there in the James Bond movies
58:26
till later on yeah that's right yeah I me yeah I was thinking though it's funny
58:33
like if you if you're a woman right and you got cast in a James Bond movie say
58:39
you were in cast in one of the Shan con ones or one of
58:44
the certainly the Daniel Craig ones or the Pierce brosman ones right I reckon
58:48
that had ruin you for all other men like you'd go on a date with that woman and
58:52
she'd be like yeah you seem very nice and you're you're fairly good-looking
58:55
but I know James Bond like you know what I mean like but then I was
59:01
thinking uh not Roger Mo not Roger Moore right like I mean was perfect for the
59:06
role but like no one was like he's hot yeah he's even at the time no one
59:13
was like yeah yeah he's not the handsome Bond I don't
59:18
that's right yeah and even like you know um Jane Seymour was in um Live and Let
59:23
Die uh but like I wasn't I wasn't like oh was there something happening on set
59:28
you know like no there absolutely there was
59:33
not that's interesting I think um some people think Daniel Craig is very
59:39
attractive others think he's very unattractive he's an interesting looking person I
59:45
think yeah yeah I think he's probably the is he the most interesting looking
59:52
James Bond cuz Rog Mor looks correct he looks like a British Spar he looks
59:57
correct exactly he's a British gentleman yeah yeah yeah yeah and I think for that
1:00:03
same reason um
1:00:07
uh Pierce brosen as well like he's just he's just like before they cast him it
1:00:12
was like yeah obviously Pierce brosman we're looking for a pierce brosman type
1:00:17
yeah yeah someone that looks like that guy over there yeah not someone who's not under
1:00:23
contract oh here's a here's just a age fact just to make you feel [ __ ] um Ralph
1:00:29
Maria is older oh yeah than Pat Marita was when Pat Marita played Mr Miyagi [ __ ]
1:00:36
hell that's brutal have you seen Pat Marita standup
1:00:42
before he was like when he was just a Japanese American standup comic I didn't
1:00:47
know he was no and he he just makes jokes about being a Japanese American no
1:00:53
there you go worth watching okay probably can't play any on this
1:00:59
podcast okay or in any public forum but uh
1:01:04
yeah okay cool speaks English better than he does
1:01:09
in the movie then yeah he has an American accent born and raised in America as far as I
1:01:15
know huh yeah there you go I only know him as Mr Miyagi oh of course yeah same
1:01:20
and Bridge on the River
1:01:22
Qui he's in there huh m there you
1:01:28
go speaking of the war started watching rewatching man in the High Castle it's
1:01:32
very good oh [ __ ] yeah that was very
1:01:36
good yeah that was very good I watched something that reminded me of of of
1:01:42
aspects of it so I was like rewatch that
1:01:47
yeah good I love rer needs to be in more things he's in a show that I got to
1:01:51
watch he's in a show called The diplomats I think and I was like I guess
1:01:55
I got to watch that seen that he's also in an Agatha Christie miniseries where
1:01:59
he's the detective yeah I'll tell you what it's
1:02:05
called rofus yeah I know the one you mean I don't know what it's called either but
1:02:10
um the Diplomat singular the
1:02:13
Diplomat yeah okay scoop what I watched something that I think you would like I
1:02:20
it's two seasons I only watched one season of it have you seen
1:02:24
counterpart with um JK Simmons no okay I
1:02:29
think so allow me to blow your mind with the premise right in the 80s during the
1:02:35
Cold War right in Berlin a rift was opened up that split
1:02:42
the world into two alternative realities okay so up until that
1:02:48
moment everything identical but the very knowing about each other changed things
1:02:54
right H and so so when the cold world war ended the Espionage continued but
1:03:00
sending spies back and forth into the other
1:03:04
dimensions huh and the premise of the show is now it's said modern day 30
1:03:09
years later so that's just backstory you don't see any of that mhm and um JK
1:03:13
Simmons plays this file Clerk or something some lowly person working for
1:03:19
the you know the whatever the German equivalent of the CIA is um and the HM
1:03:25
from the other side comes over and he's a [ __ ] like Hardline Espionage agent
1:03:30
and he's like I need your help I need to do something over here so you've got to
1:03:34
go over there and pretend to be me right and it's very cool I'm making a
1:03:39
note I got to watch that yeah I've also got to watch dark city
