I should say something here shouldn't I one of us should that's traditionally
0:05
how this goes oh I got caught up with the recording stuff cuz I'm doing a
0:09
backup recording and I'm so proud of myself but then I forgot to actually
0:13
talk which is part of the recording thing it's a two-step process really I
0:19
decided to uh switch back to my PC and then didn't remember how to use any of
0:23
the stuff which is why I need you to take the backup recording cuz I don't
0:26
remember how to do that on this computer yep got all on control I'm not doing it
0:31
in a very resourceful way at all but I'm doing it something is happening that's
0:37
the main thing welcome to multiple
0:41
nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and
0:45
Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All
0:51
Things nerdy so how are we this week we have
0:56
Matt back with us yes I am back you guys uh covered for me I appreciate that mhm
1:03
what we're here for you did tell everyone I was going to be on at some
1:06
point and I wasn't but that's not your fault that's my fault we were just
1:11
relaying the message don't blame yourself mat blame your children I did
1:15
intend to I don't I blame my daughter how inconsiderate just wanting
1:20
food and attention in the morning yes they're like much like me babies food
1:26
and attention yeah [ __ ] themselves mind's doing this thing at the moment
1:29
where it doesn't want anything necessarily but it just won't let you
1:34
put it down ah yeah some babies go through that also there are babies that
1:38
will never crawl they'll just they'll just get up and walk one
1:42
day yes yes it is
1:47
true so babies like never get go well
1:51
thank God that's over yeah yeah I'm out
1:55
of one phase and into another oh looks like I'm an adult now
2:01
there are sometimes when a baby just sort of doesn't get left alone enough to
2:06
learn that sort of thing and then just starts walking before they can crawl so
2:10
you're saying it's actually better to not teach them to crawl no no you want
2:17
them to crawl you want them to have Independence otherwise you get into a
2:21
position where you have to carry them all the time right so you're not saying
2:24
they skip straight to walking you're saying there's some ad heard that phrase
2:27
youve trying to walk before you can crawl wait you that's the Psych theme
2:31
song is that where you learned this
2:37
baby I don't know this is just one of the things I I I think it's the I think
2:41
it's the truth I could be wrong I don't think I am that's the name of Luke
2:46
all babies crawl and it's sequel it's not my fault oh okay most babies start
2:52
to crawl between 6 s months in fact some babies never crawl at
2:57
all asking is if they suddenly just start walking or if there's adults out
3:02
there that just never learn to crawl therefore never learn to walk
3:07
and around yeah you got to catch them out they just go straight to walking
3:12
right let's all just move around like a like a dog sounds a
3:19
better no but but you got to you got to think about this you think it sounds
3:22
better it means cuz that doesn't mean they start walking earlier it just means
3:27
you have to carry them for longer so they'll still start walking on the
3:32
day they were fed to start walking somehow they'll know that they should have done
3:39
something in the middle and they have to allow time for it see I found an article
3:44
but it sounds just sounds silly because it says pediatricians agree that some
3:48
babies just never crawl and that's that
3:53
what okay they've just got together and they've agreed that that's
3:58
true and I agree with the experts kids that walk first are not more special
4:04
than kids that crawl first sounds they are aren
4:09
they every child's special according to their parents yes they all start doing
4:15
stuff earlier than the top percentile of something that's true I do sometimes
4:21
think my baby must be smarter than all the other babies but she's probably just the
4:25
same it's a hard truth my baby held its own bottle the other day and I was like
4:31
oh I'm sure you're not meant to do that yeah I'm sure that means you're
4:35
special say my baby doing that recently so maybe yours is special Dan yeah yeah
4:42
am I special mine can't walk all crawl though to be clear well you've been able
4:46
to hold your own bottle for years Luke that's and that's been a problem holding
4:50
one right now it'll shock no
4:54
one hey I have a drinks related anecdote I don't know if this is an anecdote
4:59
actually but it's it's a drinks related topic of conversation I'm not actually
5:03
sure what an anote is no anote I know what that is that's for
5:10
poison I'm not good a cure for your
5:17
alcoholism yeah it's both an antidote and an anecdote drink water actually
5:23
that is that is what I want to talk about right so we've talked about on
5:26
this podcast before the fact that Matt enjoys drinking water and Luke and I
5:30
don't right yeah we we just don't we just never do it's very boring in taste
5:36
mhm mhm um not anymore I drink a [ __ ] ton of water now and I absolutely love
5:43
it you know what the secret missing
5:45
ingredience was bubbles cordial oh no I
5:50
drink [ __ ] carbonated water all day long
5:55
now do you did you get one of those uh soda thingies sod
6:01
mhm so you just basically get tap water put it in there put some bubbles in it
6:05
put it in the fridge and Away you go correct it's amazing it's changed my
6:10
life I'm hydrated for the first time in 41
6:15
years it feels like I'm drinking soda but I'm drinking water yeah so you just
6:20
tricked your body is essentially what you're saying it
6:23
knows it knows but somehow it doesn't care your mouth's like oh a treat but
6:28
your brain's like [ __ ] yeah Aqua maybe I should try that you should
6:35
cuz I normally just mix Mountain Jew into mine into into your body and then
6:40
the bottles and then the Bott no into the soda shom and then the bottles get
6:44
sticky wait into the and then I just go back to K
6:49
Luke no no no you could actually get the the mixture of of syrup oh even when I
6:55
do that I I'm not putting just care about Je in I don't know what
7:00
watering down a mountain you no I um even when I use syrup which is actually
7:05
quite rare but I um I do it in the glass I don't make a whole bottle of
7:10
it oh sure so get sticky bubble no no no i b i bubble a
7:16
bottle yeah but then make individual glasses the bottles get
7:20
sticky yeah and then your refuses to put them in the dishwasher yeah she refuses
7:26
to wash them they can't go in the dishwasher what am I meant to do you
7:29
it's funny your wife refuses to wash the soda stream bottles my wife refuses to
7:34
let me have the soda stream out on the bench because it's ugly so my soda
7:38
stream is in our linen cupboard and the only shelf it fits on is the bottom
7:43
shelf I.E the floor right so not only am I like soda streaming in the cupboard
7:49
I'm literally crawling into the cupboard like [ __ ] Mr tus style is it just is
7:54
it just the whole thing she doesn't like or is it just the color cuz maybe you
7:58
get a different color one said there's actually quite there's some fancy ones out
8:02
there she's just she's not have any of
8:06
that okay I've B out and I don't use
8:10
it so you put the syrup in and carbonate it with the syrup in there no no no you
8:17
carbonate the water and then you pour the syrup in but it still gets oh you
8:20
pour it straight into the bottle yeah okay all right he makes a to do that
8:26
yeah yeah I I drink a lot of soft drink yeah
8:30
or soda as my American friends call it if that's the case Matt what do you call
8:36
like if somebody says I want a whiskey and soda meaning they want a soda water
8:40
with whiskey in it does do Americans go do you mean Coca-Cola no like how do you
8:46
differentiate between soda and soft drink I think well they don't have soft
8:52
drink they just I guess I think it's because yeah context you you would you wouldn't order
8:58
a Mountain Dew yeah you you order it by
9:02
like a whiskey and Coke or ex Coke I did ask for when I
9:08
in no whiskey and soda I think you would ask for yeah yeah you ask but yeah
9:13
lemonade no that you that's you can't ask for lemonade there I love lemonade
9:17
there though you can ask for it they'll just look at you weird no they'll just
9:22
give you a different thing to what you're expecting you have to ask for
9:25
sprite if you want sprite Sprite Which which is weird is that like the only
9:31
brand of lemonade soft drink over there
9:34
or there other and uh there are like the
9:39
you know the off-brand ones I guess it's like if you ask for Coke and they just
9:43
give you a Pepsi if that's what they've got exactly yeah but then lemonade is
9:48
not like Sprite is not lemonade Sprite is that genre of Beverage like you know
9:54
like Coke is Cola M Sprite is that
9:59
citrus stuff that in Australia we call lemonade that here is not called
10:04
lemonade yeah do you have um scheps cuz
10:08
that's the best lemonade yes we do what would you calls is Pepsi if you wanted
10:13
scheps would you have to still say Sprite and Hope they've got I don't know
10:17
that they have scheps lemonade they have scheps as a brand right cuz I know they
10:22
have like the tonic water and stuff I don't know I'll investigate yeah yeah
10:28
okay delicious oh listeners just write in and and then I won't have to
10:33
bother I mean go here with me I could ask H you know what [ __ ] him let's not
10:39
look we are 10 years into this podcast let's not start fact checking
10:45
now I think we're 12 years at this point aren't we
10:52
yeah close to we're we're over 10 we've done 10 was 10 was last year 2009 I
10:59
think no no Dan's right no it wasn't it was 200
11:04
2010 Dan's right thought was 2010 was either very late 2010 or very early 2011
11:10
cuz it was when we got back from America the first
11:15
time yes and people here told us we were
11:20
funny and yeah and kept asking us what kind of music our band plays yeah and
11:26
that appealed to our ego so we started yeah that's right and here we are today
11:33
yeah people who overheard us talking in bars loudly
11:39
yeah all they were really wanting was for us to leave the bars so they could
11:43
have some peace and quiet and they know we'd have to record somewhere else so it's all a
11:50
ploy man I was reading this week that uh the Cyber truck has been delayed
11:56
again I'm sorry have to tell you that but um why didn't they email me if
12:02
you'll uh if you'll allow me to present a uh an alternative I've got something
12:07
you might like more and then I think I do before we go on I do think I know why
12:12
they haven't emailed you to say it's delayed okay have they emailed you to
12:16
tell you when you're getting one yet yes I did have well I mean my I got an ETA
12:22
when I ordered it Oh I thought it might have been they haven't giving you a date
12:26
when to expect it so need to upate cyber truck let me check my email cyber truck
12:32
Tesla thanks for your order your order is confirmed yeah you're right it doesn't
12:39
say yeah so that's why cuz yeah a while it is delayed they haven't told you when
12:44
so they don't have yeah that's right well they are delayed evidently but uh M
12:49
were you aware that all the [ __ ] rad cars from Fury Road are now up for
12:54
auction H I did see that and I I saw this and they're Al starting at like a
12:59
dollar well I mean they're not going to go for a dollar I don't think but I did
13:04
have a look and but then went I'm not going to be able to drive this on the road like
13:09
it's I know listen listen to the listen to the description of one of these this
13:13
is the um 1956 Pontiac custom Safari two-o wagon stripped and chop topped to
13:20
accommodate a 20ft pole welded to a V8 engine block as a counterweight for
13:24
aerial gymnastics cir toay Wasteland style rap and pillage from on high By
13:31
Gast Town Elite War boys boarding parties rained on victim vehicles at
13:36
high speed from the steel surfboard toing beaten metal monster now if that's
13:41
not the best description of a car that exists in the world I don't know what
13:50
is I see um I said to Jenna I'd like to bid on the uh the
13:57
Interceptor and but then she realized I wasn't joking
14:01
yeah you might as well bid on it you're probably not going to get it but what if
14:06
you did that what if you did look at that thing I
14:13
mean yeah hold on let me see
14:18
if there's a bid placed on this already oh no it's it's not an online bid it's
14:25
an actual they're going to have the the auctions taking place on the 26s 10
14:29
bucks I actually just went to put a bid on oh yeah it's not it's not started yet
14:35
yeah where is it happening it could be somewhere Matt can get to no I think
14:40
it's in Australia no it's in Australia yeah M Max was filmed here yeah I no but
14:44
no but how are they going to do it in Australia everywhere's in lockdown
14:48
here South Africa actually fil auctions are online it's filmed in southa I
14:53
thought we just established this wasn't online no no no no but they're not it's
14:58
you can still still bid for it like over the phone or an email and stuff but the
15:02
auction's going to run out of saying it's not online it has started it's not
15:05
it's not eBay it's not yeah okay I see I see it's not like it's going to run for
15:09
two weeks and that it's going to be
15:12
a at 7:00 26 September yeah and then you just call in and go
15:19
I'd like to bid this quite like the El Dorado we should
15:25
each I just don't think they're going to pass a roadworthy this Gaz guzzling yank
15:29
tank offers space of Plenty as it carries a multitude of Warriors into
15:34
battle Mount machine gun front and center I don't know that you would buy
15:39
these as a daily driver Luke I'm not sure that's a concern I
15:44
would that seagull can go [ __ ] itself now I drive this to
15:48
work yeah well I don't cuz I I don't
15:55
understand buying a car like this and then not using it
16:00
I mean that's fair putting it somewhere yeah but imagine taking this in to get a
16:05
[ __ ] inspection done get a REO check yeah just need a REO check and the guy's
16:11
like the [ __ ] yeah it's like you got a
16:14
permit for that rape pole on the
16:21
back yeah I do
16:25
actually right here you know no I would love these but yeah not not practical
16:31
certainly no um but yeah the the Interceptor that
16:36
would be a nice one yeah just cuz it's a piece of piece of History piece of Australian
16:42
history and that's probably the one that's closest to be able to be driven on the road
16:48
sure did we discuss that the Mad Max sequel which was going to be based on
16:54
chariss theon's character furiosa is not starring
16:59
they on after all yeah yeah your girlfriend an Taylor Joy
17:06
yeah Anya Taylor Joy is it is she playing as is she playing the same
17:11
character but a younger version or okay yes she
17:18
is how are they going to explain how in the future her eyes got quite close
17:23
together compared to how they are now it's just that story that's being told
17:28
at the time describes her that way there be a scene there'll be a scene where
17:31
someone punches her yeah right at the end um is it Bruce
17:36
Spence that really really tall guy who's who's in Warrior yeah he's going to be
17:41
like it's not how I remember her looking I'm going to watch it one day I
17:48
own it now even I still haven't seen it you haven't seen no I don't know why
17:53
have you seen any of them you seen any Mad Max movies seen
17:59
like the I've seen up to Beyond Thunderdome okay so all of them except
18:03
for this y pretty much I played the game the three and
18:08
then and the game well the game's great the game was great game I wish they'd
18:13
come out with a new one of that I love driving around the sort of
18:17
the Wasteland and upgrading my car and getting
18:23
achievements but don't be the auction you can do that in real life ex the Wast
18:29
just drive around just drive out into the middle of the
18:31
desert the desert's like 5 minutes from your house Luke drive across that big Salt
18:38
Lake I could but no I hly if I'm online at a time and I can get something for under
18:45
10 10 doll dollars yeah
18:51
yeah maybe he can maybe no one's interested in this not likely to stay at
18:55
a dollar just just want to make sure you guys understand that proba jum I've
19:00
never been to an auction I've never been to an actual auction where they've said
19:03
well I guess we just start I going to look like AOL right it's auction they
19:07
closed the auction and it's like well only one one person bid on all of them
19:10
so you get all the cars for a dollar each it's never happened before and I'm
19:13
like [ __ ] Luke alers and you're like L please sell me
19:18
one for $2 and you're like
19:21
no that's a 100% profit L yep no I'd keep them all for myself actually where
19:28
would you store them store them at Matt's house we just got to get them
19:31
there yeah I've got that's okay we use your backyard just we'll just she go
19:37
back out we'll just store all the bad backs cars I've got room for some of
19:40
them I'm not sure I could fit all of them that war rig is pretty
19:44
big all right I'll pass on the war rig pass it on to
19:50
me imagine driving that to work every
19:55
day imagine paying for the petrol to go in it
20:00
this is America petrols cheap oh that's right until it's not it's called gas
20:05
speaking of movies yes so uh Dan you've started watching Harry Potter yeah I've
20:12
started watching Harry Potter why
20:15
because I haven't seen it and trans book and he just wanted to get in and learn
20:22
more about it yeah did you read the books at all when everyone was doing
20:26
that no well I was too a it this this
20:29
came out when I was in my 20s so I I had no interest I don't know like but to me
20:36
you would even have sort of less interest now and cuz at least if you
20:40
read the books you sort of got that you read the books I didn't mind that I'll
20:43
watch the movie you just watching a kids movie now yeah I watched it with my
20:47
child I mean she's too young to understand it but I thought oh you know
20:50
I'll put on a kids movie um I remember them being quite good yeah okay so I'm
20:57
going to I'm going to work my way through all them um the first one all
21:01
the kids which I was Jesus disappointingly they're all adults
21:07
now they work work my way through Hogwarts
21:13
um the first one which is which is strangely titled in Netflix as Harry
21:19
Potter and the Sorcerer Stone except they call it the philosopher stone in
21:24
the film so I think someone got their wires cross with the international title there
21:29
mhm yeah but I found that to be that's happened with a few movies on sort of
21:34
prime I think Prime's guilty of that the book
21:38
had did it now okay um great movie really enjoyed it um second one Chamber
21:44
of Secrets put that on today not as good still good not as good but uh looking
21:50
forward to pushing on and um seeing how we go I'll say this though um one thing
21:55
I wasn't expecting in the first one you guys have both seen it right
21:59
yeah yes yeah so this is a movie that's 20 years read the books yeah okay so I
22:03
don't know how this was described in the books I was ask this as well there's a
22:07
scene early on in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone where they go into
22:13
philosophers well not the one I watched they go into a bank right mhms and in
22:19
the bank is
22:23
Jews it's full of stereotype hooked nose
22:29
with claw I'm talking Borat parody
22:33
Jews mhm I couldn't believe that's what it says in the book eyes no but in the
22:39
book it says Harry walked in and he just saw a bunch of Borat hook no stereotyp
22:45
seriously I I is this back before JK ring was trying to hide her Prejudice
22:49
this is no honestly I can't believe they made the bankers old timey medieval Jews
22:56
they're goblins right or goblins what are Mt yeah they
23:02
Goblin no no no I mean chose a goblins right we
23:07
agreed on that yeah goblins yeah like if you if you
23:13
Google see look Jew stereotype and you print that I know the one you're talking
23:19
about there's a Harry Potter goblins I know the the
23:25
character CH that you mean oh I see I see what you're saying yeah yeah all
23:31
right yeah there's no other way you could describe this other than the the
23:38
typical like gold hoarding Jew from racist
23:44
cartoons G the goblins and JK Rings Harry Potter
23:50
anti-semitic and the consensus I mean on the internet appears to be she might not
23:56
have meant to be but she appears but it definitely is
24:00
yeah yeah
24:05
yeah um other than that though I thought it was a pretty good
24:09
movie you going to go to uh to Diagon Alley at Universal
24:14
Studios I do enjoy going there there's a
24:19
dragon oh I haven't gotten up to one of the Harry Potters with a dragon I do
24:23
have a question though um about quidditch yeah
24:29
that silly sport
24:33
soly there's a whole team right and there's three
24:38
balls and everyone's going after all the balls to score points etc etc except
24:44
that there's two people called Seekers who are going after one specific ball
24:49
after which the game is over if they catch it and they've won so why have the
24:54
other ball necessar other teams because he can capture the ball but not win go
25:01
on for scoring with the other balls you get 10 points per goal or something the
25:05
snitches I think is worth 150 so if you catch the snitch while the
25:11
other teams in front you can lose so you could win just by scoring
25:18
individual goals with the regular ball yep and are the names of the balls
25:25
Dan I don't know the names of the balls
25:28
I've seen this people I think there's a quaffle and a there bludgers yeah the
25:35
bludgers aren't the bludgers the players
25:38
that [ __ ] work blud it and then
25:44
uh yeah they know so um could you conceivably have a whole game and no one
25:51
catches the snitch no because that's how the game
25:55
ends so that there's when you in the books they talk about games have gone on
26:01
for days okay but a game could also go for 5
26:06
seconds yep if you grab the snitch straight away mhm Okay
26:13
cool so it's not a very good sport like it's really hard to plan you
26:18
your weekend viewing schedule around it yeah that's fair that's how I feel about
26:23
Cricket po I was about to say that's that's why I can't commit to a cricket
26:26
match yeah I feel like that's a pretty good comeback if someone was to say to
26:30
her isn't it stupid that the game would go on for days and days and she say
26:35
cricket yeah and then they oh yeah good point good
26:40
point I also think Cricket's a silly sport unless it's the like the 2020s but
26:44
just get out there and hit the cricket doesn't even have a golden snitch like I
26:48

26:55
watching that and um I'm reading the secret history by Donna tart and between
27:00

27:03
boarding school experience you know what I mean I think it would have been fun
27:06
going to a posh boarding
27:08
school sure you could read um was r dar's book where you went to boarding
27:15
school boy boy that's the one and they made him
27:19
warm up the toilet for him all the bullies how did he warm up the toilet go
27:25
sit on it don't ask I hate going to a public toilet and
27:31
sitting on a warm seat that is literally my worst nightmare that's cuz you're not a bully
27:38
Dan that's the niest thing anyone's ever said to me that's how you
27:43
know yeah if I liked it I was like oh it's should be warm yeah it's like like
27:49
a witch if if the witch floats she's a witch if the bully sits on the toilet
27:54
and goes oh it's warm he's not a bully oh
28:01
oh that's another game they should remaster yeah I don't know why they
28:06
haven't remastered that all come out with a sequel i' play the [ __ ] out of a
28:09
new bully oh I do know why because they could just keep releasing stuff for
28:15
Grand Theft Auto online and print money yeah why work on anything
28:22
new did you see they cuz they were doing the Xbox series X and the PlayStation 5
28:27
upgrade but that's been push back to next year I think they're going to sell
28:30
the game again Jesus Christ I know there's lots of remakes coming out that
28:34
I want GTA5 is not one of them remakes I think because of the pandemic and
28:40
everything I Reon we're going to see a bunch of remakes because people were
28:44
kind of hedging their bets a bit I think over the last year mhm so and yeah you
28:50
don't have to start from scratch it's like people will buy this
28:56
yeah well there's one coming out in like 3 weeks that I'll be buying and have you
29:02
seen the price of this the alen Wake remake I haven't seen the price it's
29:06
like 40 40 bucks [ __ ] yeah in Australia
29:12
$40 20 30 like ridiculously
29:18
cheap $29.99 okay that's great I got a shock when I saw the price cuz I'm thinking
29:24
it'll be like a it's just normal price what's the release date Luke
29:29
uh 5th of October okay yeah that's not far I'm really bouncing around between
29:33
games at the moment guys I can't find something to just really sink my teeth
29:38
into I've been I that problem a lot yeah I'm a bit not not to say it's
29:45
not good it's it's it's not valhall it's me I just don't want to play anymore at
29:49
the moment and I Tred going to try and get the um the Next Gen update out for S
29:55
Punk so I stopped my play through cuz it's they said it's still out this year
29:58
so I'll fig I'll hold off about that too and then start again or um May you'd be
30:04
better off to start again I think yeah probably although they are some very nice pants
30:08
though long as you wearing the same pants it's really takeen with the gold
30:14
pants and I don't know why now that we've mentioned cyber punk I think that
30:19
would be a Miss to not tangent into the Matrix oh
30:26
sure so earlier in the week yeah earlier in the week it became evident that what
30:32
is the matrix.com which was one of the first ever online viral media campaigns
30:38
back in 1999 was it that the Matrix came out U when the internet was very new um
30:44
was back online and I went to that site and they had
30:50
uh two nice little clips that you could watch by clicking on either the red pill
30:55
or the blue pill which gave you a different perspective
31:04
it exced extremely excited then later in the week the actual trailer came out and
31:11
all my excitement drained
31:15
away I thought it looks good I don't know man but also we don't really need
31:21
another Matrix movie so I was confused about how there is another Matrix movie
31:25
but I was like I I mean surely they're going to the character is dying right so
31:30
surely they're going to explain that in the movie uh when I see it and then I
31:36
read an interesting article that I think I said you guys I put it in here that
31:41
seems to indicate this is not I guess 100% confirmed cuz we haven't seen the
31:45
movie yet but the marketing only refers
31:49
to the Matrix it does not talk about the sequels
31:55
sequels there's that but I also put another article in here which is sort of
32:01
hinting at this might be follow on from the MMO RPG that came out which is
32:07
directly after the sequels yes the MMO is definitely Cannon or has been so far
32:13
as has yes Enter the Matrix the animatrix um Path of
32:18
Neo CU but people thought that because they were like you know like Lawrence
32:23
Fishburn was like oh they didn't ask me to be in this and then people were like
32:26
what's cuz you're Mor is except he's not dead he's in the
32:30
[ __ ] trailer and they confirmed that that's Morpheus so just a younger hotter
32:36
guy playing he's yeah he's just a different different actor he's just been
32:41
replaced which just makes it more confusing I'm so conf we have to wait
32:45
but also that's not Neo that's just
32:49
Kiana Reeves if anything it's John Wick like it's like they said KY come and
32:55
play Neo and he's like no I'm not going to do it I'm not going to cut my hair or
32:57
shave my beard and I want to be on my motorbike like he's not
33:02
FY I saw a tweet the other day made me laugh someone said that when they first
33:05
saw all the Matrix trailer stuff they thought his name was
33:09
Neil because and he's really adamant about it because there that scene where
33:15
he's like my name is Neil and if you watch it thinking that
33:21
it does sound like that if you don't know great well that's like that whole
33:25
movie based on um agent Smith thinks his name is Thomas
33:29
Sanderson oh yeah he always says it as one word Thomas Sanderson
33:34
Sanderson sorry you saying Thomas Sanderson or Thomas Anderson I haven't
33:38
seen that in ages that little sketch that's good so when's this one coming
33:43
out is it this year or December December's going to be
33:49
busy yeah at least in Australia yeah well you if you're not all locked in your bedroom
33:56
still well if if 70% of our population
34:01
get vaxed the following Monday becomes dday for going
34:07
outside V Day V Day V dday yeah spread it
34:13
around no you can do that now you can get an in there's an intimacy clause in our
34:19
lockdown what if you live by yourself you're allowed to fill in a form to say
34:25
this guy's coming over to rail me yeah it's got to be a
34:30
guy yeah it's a specific guy it's um
34:34
it's one guy the government and he's very good at his
34:42
J yeah oh by the way can I just make a
34:44
quick correction um for last week
34:49
um uh something something I said on last week's show that was incorrect Ron
34:54
Howard is an actor who stars in um American Graffiti John Howard is a
35:00
former prime minister of Australia clear Ron Weasley is a little ginger kid
35:07
yeah nothing wrong with gingers wow
35:14
wow but yeah so in December if we if everyone does get V roll out out we get
35:20
to go see the Matrix but then also that's when Dan will get to see
35:24
Dune so this is going to be annoying because if Dune I I will have seen it before then I
35:30
promise yeah there's no way I'm allowing that to happen I'm going to be
35:33
disappointed I'm not going to see it at the cinema for the first I'm going to go
35:36
see this in IMAX I think I'm going
35:39
to well see this is where you have to be good and wait and go see it on day one
35:46
for them to make the second part of it you need to give them money at the
35:49
theaters well well they need to put it out the same [ __ ] day it comes out
35:54
everywhere else because if it doesn't I'm going to go and watch it in
35:58
cougar well Den villain came out this week and he said at this
36:03
stage it's very likely they're going to be doing the sequel cuz June came out in
36:09
U was Venice Film Festival it's already premiered technically and got mostly
36:16
rave reviews couple of people didn't like it but I mean whatever but I think
36:21
those people aren't going to like a big space epic anyway quite honestly and
36:26
mean know and as we've discussed a million times just cuz review is like
36:30
something doesn't mean anything oh I don't agree with critics at all so as a
36:35
rule we are not thinking the same thing yeah but no D you need to make sure you
36:40
give them money yeah no no no I I want I want otherwise it's your fault they
36:45
don't make it it's 100% your fault it is a lot of
36:52
responsibility if you want to see the ending speaking of ending speaking of movies
36:59
that should have been one movie that weren't one movie have you noticed that
37:02
um they're coming out with a Lord of the Rings 31 Disc
37:07
set Jesus Christ what did they are these
37:12
Blu-rays what Blu-ray found just did it together how 31
37:19
Blu-ray discs of a movie my home movies as me as a
37:22
[Laughter] child
38:27
now just fit on One Blu-Ray instead of four DVDs it sounds like that might be
38:32
the case yeah yeah uh I'll be
38:38
close oh no for what director Peter Jackson
38:43
explained last year that he attempted to address visual
38:47
inconsistency between Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit
38:53
no unless made the look more like I'm not interested
38:59
mate cuz they looked like yeah Matt he made his [ __ ] least favorite
39:06
one he's going to change his favorite one to make it more like his least favorite
39:13
ones I yeah but unless he thinks The
39:18
Hobbit was like visually good but he does he thinks The Hobbit is how they
39:24
should all look I want that he's probably
39:29
artificially upped the frame rate on Lord of the r that's why yeah no don't
39:33
do that Jesus Christ all right wait it's a 31
39:39
dis set and it's got this is the list of special features can's Film Festival
39:46
presentation re Alamo Draft House cast reunion The Fellowship of the Ring read
39:52
through two towers read through return the king read through 31 discs get yours
39:57
down wow wow I doal features watch people sit
40:03
around the desk and read a script
40:07
yeah it's in very high resolution
40:14
yeah I don't care about this I don't think I'm just going to keep my old Lord
40:20
of the Rings box sets they were good they were beautiful yeah and they had
40:26
the uh the book that was the arug enough yes yeah which
40:31
was lovely someone I know had those was it you or was it Dave yeah I had him
40:36
Dave might had him as well no Dave doesn't watch things with kings and
40:38
queens oh that's a good point yeah yeah you must be thinking of mine yeah yeah I
40:43
don't do dragons sorry dragons listening at home
40:48
yeah you can't put me on your list to come over uh there's a film Luke might be
40:54
interested in been shopped around anyway uh I'm not sure if you've gotten a pitch
40:59
on this yet Luke Christopher Nolan's pitching his uh movie about
41:04
Oppenheimer which sounds good uh and then you can probably just decide what
41:08
the ending is yourself Luke that's what he does for all these movies now it's
41:13
just making it obvious no no I made that bit up I made that bit up I just put
41:17
that in there as a joke maybe what should happen like Luke
41:21
do you do you think that he's just making you decide or that everyone has
41:26
to decide from themselves no just me yeah that's what I mean so
41:29
maybe from now on he can just come and ask you to write the ending to the
41:33
film how would you end the Oppenheimer movie we've had the Manhattan Project
41:38
they've dropped the two bombs on nagashi and Yokohama Oppenheimer regrets that
41:43
they used his technology to make something that's killed Millions with
41:47
close up on a spinning Karate Kid leads Karate Kid yeah Karate Kid to an hour
41:53
yeah yep mhm done so okay so at the end
42:00
ofen to a young boy a young Mr Miyagi single
42:05
tear and he looks into the camera and goes I'm [ __ ] Coming to America for
42:09
you up and he turns around starts painting his fence P oppenheimer's fence after I wax
42:16
my car that sounds amazing does it not
42:20
I'm all in I'm
42:23
100% The Karate Kid Oppenheimer
42:29
directed by Christopher Nolan so you won't be able to hear what
42:33
he's saying anyway yeah
42:40
yeah what was that I think he said he
42:43
regrets that they used his technology to
42:49
[Laughter] destroy what am I picturing here Matt is
42:54
oper wearing the Bane mask or is the sound mix just really low he's just
42:58
facing away from the camera oh my God yeah that's what it's
43:04
going to be it's like it's not no is going to be it's not my responsibility
43:08
to point the camera at the actor who's talking so ofhe is just off screen the whole
43:13
time that is up to you to imagine who's
43:19
talking oh man people were real mad about tenant with that
43:24
scene well I mean a lot of where he explained the plot and you can't
43:28
understand a word of it too much [ __ ] noise going on that's just so funny I
43:34
didn't notice it at the cinema but when I've watched it since on Netflix I was
43:38
like okay I I can understand why people were concerned about this like I don't I
43:43
don't understand why they didn't remix it for TV but well because he refused to
43:49
that's that's what that he wants you to see at the cinema first and for it to sound like a
43:54
cinema mix but he's not being realistic that somebody's going to want to watch
43:58
that again later somebody
44:01
everybody yeah yeah I
44:06
know unless he's literally like I don't care if nobody buys this on stream or
44:11
whatever he's already got paid yeah but he wants to make more movies
44:16
presumably and they're letting him well not yet they're not he's pitching it
44:20
around I'm not so he made two movies
44:24
with [ __ ] um Tom Hardy and we still don't know what Tom Hardy
44:29
has to say in either of them that's right don't he didn't have a lot to
44:34
say right yeah and what he did say he said into a [ __ ] garbled
44:40
radio yeah wow that's some pretty important
44:46
[ __ ] you're telling me there Tom Hardy what what's that Charlie Brown's
44:52
parents this summer from Christopher Nolan
45:00
Christopher Nolan Merry Christmas Charlie
45:07
Brown watch except that music is just incredibly loud that's all you
45:15
he yeah in the last scene they're about to explain whether [ __ ] Snoopy and
45:20
wood Chu can actually understand each other and then it just freezes and it
45:25
just comes up on screen ask l call us and what
45:30
happens and he's a dress yes say
45:34
can Tom Hardy as the Snoopy as the Red
45:40
[Laughter] Baron Tom Hardy loves not being anyway
45:47
I'm gonna I'm going to watch this Oppenheimer movie if and when it
45:51
gets I probably won't I'll just watch the sequel so got
45:57
a script at this point does he mat I believe that is the case yes he's
46:01
shopping it around the studios he's no longer sticking with Warner Brothers H I
46:06
was going to say I thought he just had a standing deal with them I don't know
46:11
yeah well it may be that they've already knocked it
46:14
back well yeah either that or he's just exploring his options I mean he's probably you
46:20
know I imagine Christopher Nolan could negotiate pretty aggressively mhm
46:27
so he's got a bit of sway should he though should
46:34
he someone's got to stop him uh there's a another remake coming
46:40
out we didn't mention this yet and it's uh I'm excited and nervous about this
46:47
one yeah it's nights of the Old Republic so I think this has been rumored for a
46:54
bit and there was a rumor going around that they doing like both of them like n
47:01
Republic 1 and two sort of trying to mesh them into one game and okay but it
47:05
was recently announced that as a coming to PlayStation 5
47:11
yes uh and N
47:13
PC MPC yeah so I'm thinking and hoping
47:19
really hoping that it's just uh uh timed exclusive and the way that they've
47:25
worded it it does seem to lead to it is cuz it says console exclusive on
47:30
PlayStation 5 at launch right mhm that gives the indication that maybe down the
47:35
line we'll see it because I really want to play it again yeah I mean we haven't
47:40
this this trailer does not have any game footage it's just a doesn't have much at
47:45
all right it's just a you know R shows you R
47:51
Mar know that it's just a video of Revan which shows nothing so
47:58
uh but yeah hopefully timed and hopefully we'll get to play it in a year's time do they
48:04
have okay so there is a release date on this or we don't know oh no just a year
48:09
after it comes out that's normally a year normally timed exclusiv you get
48:15
like 6 months or a year but there is also um like Final Fantasy 7 remake Sony
48:22
paid a lot of money to have that as a typ exclusive for a year and then they
48:26
renegotiated a deal and got it for another 6 months yeah
48:30
right and Sony might be starting to try and do this with what Microsoft's doing
48:37
now Bethesda oh like good point coming out
48:40
saying Starfield 2 Starfield scaring 6 like these games are going to be Xbox
48:46
only yeah they're playing the game so I can't be super mad at them I can just be
48:52
dis disappointed in them which I think is worse mhm
48:59
cuz I really I would love to play it again but I'm not going to buy a PlayStation to do
49:05
it couldn't if you wanted to that's a good point there's that but
49:12
also I'm lock into achievements I'd be getting trophies sure but there's
49:16
there's games you if you were going to buy a a PlayStation it's games you would
49:21
have done it for before this surely before a game you've already play I
49:25
brought I did buy PlayStation 3 to try and play through the Uncharted and The
49:30
Last of Us and just sat there MH yeah I I kept forgetting that I had
49:35
it yeah so yeah it didn't really work out cuz yeah you've got the Xbox you
49:40
remember that's there and Away you go that's right we'll we'll see in a year's
49:45
time well I I keep saying a year's time it's probably going to be a couple of
49:50
years I would think so given that they have no footage at all unless it's like um
49:57
they're like surprised it actually already serious I also think this is one
50:02
of those ones you don't need to advertise it and show off footage for a
50:06
couple of years to try and get people to buy it yeah but if it's a remake that's
50:12
how you will get people to buy it is to go here's what it used to look like now
50:15
here's what it looks like yeah and is it a remake like uh Final Fantasy 7 was a
50:21
remake in which case maybe you do because it's pretty
50:24
different I yeah I well I don't know but for me for something like this people
50:29
are going to buy it no matter what like it's cuz I assume the game play can't be
50:33
the same right cuz it the as as great as
50:37
it was at the time it's pretty clunky now they might turn it m clunky maybe
50:42
more into a bit more of a hacken slash than the whole thing where cuz didn't
50:47
they just used to fight themselves didn't they yeah like you basically
50:51
attack that person and people would yeah it was turn based but almost like a down
50:56
RPG but they just shifted the camera behind you but you still just kind of
51:01
like attacked enemies and yeah you don't have to keep hitting for attack attack
51:05
attack you attack once and then you might yeah you might key up now use your
51:11
special move type of thing but I don't know how are there any games
51:16
like that anymore that people still play I mean there
51:21
are like you know there's been pillars of Eternity and and that kind of thing
51:25
again there are isometric but I mean it kind of just was an isometric game that
51:29
shifted the camera like kind or played that way cuz you would just
51:33
say like you just queued up all the different attack it's basically Dungeons
51:36
and Dragons I think it ran off the the D20 Star Wars rules from Dungeons and
51:43
Dragons right so yeah well we'll wait and see it's a 20 year old game so they're going to
51:50
have to yeah do a lot of work to make it look good 20 years old yeah it's nearly
51:55
20 years I remember when it came out I played
52:00
that when I lived in stano with Dave that was 20 years ago are you
52:07
[ __ ] kidding me nope thanks for that sorry I didn't
52:13
mean to Jesus oh yeah so the Spy the people that are making it their real
52:19
deal is with Sony but they are releasing stuff so there was um quite recently
52:24
remember the pod racing game yes they've released that on Xbox and
52:29
PlayStation that game was better than yeah y um looks like they're doing
52:35
the same for nit um not n Republic Jedi Knight Jedi Academy and Jedi Knight 2 oh
52:42
yeah but again they look like only switch and Playstation I think they're
52:47
just sort of in bed with Sony a little bit
52:51
e then Star Wars Republic Commando that's only that's another one that was a great
52:58
game oh I've heard that that probably Commando yeah cuz it's all all the
53:02
different characters had different skills so you assign them to do stuff
53:06
while you're protecting them I was just Googling something
53:11
unrelated to uh to segue to something and I found something that I didn't know
53:17
about uh do you guys know about war remains Matt specifically because I know
53:23
you're a fan of Dan Carlin's hardcore history are you aware that Dan Carlin
53:27
now has a video game what this is not a game this is a
53:33
history presented by Hardcore History legendary podcaster Dan Carlin War
53:37
remains is an immersive experience that transport viewers into the nightmarish
53:40
hellscape of the Western Front in the first world war witness history unfold
53:44
from a solders point of view in this thought-provoking visceral experience it
53:49
looks pretty NE oh you got wait this is a thing you got to buy tickets to go to is
53:55
it no can't St VR Oculus oh okay I guess
54:02
you can just you could okay I guess it's like that V VR thing that that briefly
54:06
you had to to go to I just found a website that said buy tickets at like
54:10
some Museum but then all right oh wow do you want to borrow my headset yeah just
54:15
mail it over to me who's talking to
54:20
me I know he was I do have an Oculus that I do not use at all I forget that
54:26
you got that I forget that I've got that what does it plug into my
54:32
computer it won't run on your surface yeah I was going to
54:38
ask that surface is in a draw now I'm using the M1 magbook exclusively at the
54:44
moment I've got this week off work and I'm finally going to do the switch over
54:48
to my new computer very nice okay this is a review of what Dan
54:54
you just explained that this is this is a an immersive experience that's
54:58
supposed to show you what World War I was like right this is a review on steam
55:04
goes a bit too fast it's trying a bit too hard to make a point without giving
55:08
me the right feeling in
55:12
gameplay all right I mean you're not wrong it probably isn't as fun as you
55:17
know Call of Duty but I'm not sure you may have missed a
55:22
point there it's just trying to make a point no no he miss the point he got the
55:27
point he just didn't like that it was making a point poor writing all my
55:31
friends died stop trying to teach me [Laughter]
55:37
something this was not fun I want the thrill of shooting a man
55:43
not not the [ __ ] Hazard of having to pull my bayet out of someone's [ __ ] chest
55:50
cavity these are also reviews of World War I left by veterans funnily enough
55:55
yeah that's right it know what the point
55:58
was but yeah did not enjoy it no not fun
56:03
at all not for
56:06
me uh guys has I mean I know you guys
56:11
have probably had trouble going to see a movie these days but has anyone seen shangi
56:17
yet came out that's not out yet is it it
56:20
is it is it's not out here
56:25
hm and I find it interesting I thought it was out later in the year they
56:29
decided to put the Black Widow movie with all its big tent pole stars and
56:33
it's you know they put that online shangi that's kind
56:38
of I would have thought a much safer one to put straight to streaming no got a
56:44
seat at the cinema yeah see I really want to watch this but I actually didn't
56:48
even know it was out because things have just been so weird lately and and
56:52
because it's not on streaming it's just I just didn't even notice that to come
56:57
out see the reason why I think they went with the black widow one is cuz they
57:01
know there's that audience and they would get that people buying it from
57:04
home with this you do just want people to go out yeah and cuz I think this has
57:09
done quite well at the at the at the at the theater so
57:14
far uh I'm hopefully I'll get to go to movies next week cuz I do I didn't know
57:20
this was out and I also want to see free guy but this I don't know much about
57:23
this character but I'm interested in seeing so can I like the actor this just got
57:29
this just came out in theaters right shangi
57:34
stream no okay it's not streaming it's only in theaters all right that's yeah
57:39
yeah all right have you guys seen this though the um the star of this movie
57:46
simu has uh had a previous career as a
57:50
Shutterstock model and of course all of his stock photos are now resurfacing and
57:56
just becoming memes it's just a it's just a pre-made meme
58:04
generator these are great good on him cuz I I just know him
58:10
from um Kim's Convenience what yeah did anyone did
58:16
either of you see it no I didn't see that actually it looked it looked good
58:20
though it was it a Canadian show it's about uh Vietnam family running the
58:25
convenience store oh okay so that's the only thing I know him
58:31
from and now this stock
58:36
footage these are very
58:44
funny I love what he says about it though CU you know people are putting
58:47
them everywhere and and somebody says like you know you still getting some
58:51
money for this or whatever and yeah he must be ring at this point yeah he's
58:55
like I I paid 120 bucks and signed away all the rights to them because I was in
58:59
credit card debt there you go
59:05
mhm uh oh some of them are just really
59:10
shocking yeah but that's that's how those things work yeah I do like that one he posted
59:16
me laughing at the people who thought we'd flop and him pointing at the screen
59:21
good on you mate that's he seems cool m
59:27
he does but hope so hopefully if if all
59:33
goes to plan I should be able to go see it next week all right so is it out in
59:38
Australia I don't know I'm looking at cuz I guess let me have a look maybe
59:41
they delayed it there it came out on the third here and like I said I didn't even
59:44
know it came out and then I saw people talking about it online I was like [ __ ]
59:48
they came out like I I don't know I just I mean obviously things are a mess with
59:53
all that stuff these days so I I just didn't know it was out well I can't even
1:00:00
check it's just I go to C Mar goes we're closed Traer looked really good so I
1:00:05
actually I really do want to watch it I just didn't know it had come out so I'm
1:00:09
like mean here there is no coming out
1:00:12
everything's closed yeah all right we're in more of a lockdown now
1:00:19
than we ever were before melbour went through the same
1:00:25
lock lock Sydney didn't go through them yeah I mean we had we had stay at home
1:00:30
when you can but if you can't [ __ ] it we had that's fine 16 yeah we had you can't
1:00:37
go to a club or see a live band but everything else is
1:00:40
fine I think um at the moment CA will probably come out of lockdown this
1:00:45
Thursday night okay cuz yeah we have our numbers are down oh it's going to be on
1:00:50
streaming in um 45 days from release oh okay all right that's still different to
1:00:55
what they did for Black Widow because Black Widow was day one right and I
1:01:00
think with black widow you can buy it now to watch on Disney or you can wait
1:01:06
until October and they actually tell you when in October it'll be free to stream
1:01:10
just on the Disney Plus app M there was another show I actually saw there was
1:01:15
they gave you the option you can buy it now or rent it and it was $30 to rent it
1:01:20
or $35 to buy it and I'm just who's renting in that
1:01:26
case yeah I know what you mean but at the same time I don't want to buy a
1:01:29
movie I want to buy a movie I I'd buy
1:01:33
movies all the time now you don't own it Luke I buy the license for me to watch
1:01:39
it yeah but that's what renting is yeah but it lasts a bit longer than renting
1:01:43
yeah but that's what that's what it is an undetermined amount of time that is
1:01:48
still definitely finite I haven't been burnt
1:01:54
yet but there's nothing worse than going seeing something on the streaming so was
1:01:58
go I want to watch that and when you finally get around to watching it it's gone
1:02:03
yeah now if Xbox have sales and there's a movie I know I like not even world
1:02:08
five bucks I buy it and and according to reviewers on
1:02:14
[ __ ] steam that was not fun that's all for this leek thank you
