welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt it's all
0:08
bit hearty so I don't really understand it Luke is that a little sashwat penis
0:14
Dan I accidentally got soap in my urethra and occasionally Terry smallo
0:19
maybe you wake up in the middle of the night with a little sashwat penis inside
0:23
of you multiple nerdgasm your guide to
0:28
all things
0:34
nerdy Matt um have you seen a movie called The Avengers Age of Ultron I have
0:41
of course uh seems like the kind of movie
0:44
you might like am I right yeah I didn't dislike it it's not my it's not my
0:51
favorite movie but I got 10 minutes in and turned it off really and I rarely do
0:56
that H but for starters the whole opening shot is like something out of a
1:02
bad video game from 5 years ago it's just like ridiculous geometry everyone's
1:08
doing wacky [ __ ] and having one liners and I'm like I don't remember the
1:11
Avengers being I remember the Avengers being a bit better than this right it
1:15
was all a bit a bit silly and then they
1:19
get in and about 20 or 30 Iron Men fly in and I was like I have missed
1:26
something haven't I like I'm supposed to have watched some other one of the
1:31
peripheral movies stop doing that cuz why are there so many Iron Men that's
1:36
Iron Man 3 and I haven't seen it either but I Iron Man 2 was so [ __ ] yeah I know
1:42
that I didn't watch Iron Man 3 so I turned it off okay because I I had no
1:48
interest and I'm still not really sure what power Scarlet Johansson has she
1:53
seem to just be a chick in a suit she's uh she's a highly trained assassin
1:57
highly trained is not a superpower everyone else there's a [ __ ] Hulk you
2:01
know there's a God From Another Dimension and then there's just a chick
2:06
who's highly trained a cop basically yeah not good yeah there's I mean
2:09
there's a few characters like that I don't know what hawkey's power is as
2:12
such either I mean he's very very good with a bow and arrow but how did he get
2:15
that good is he just also highly trained I'd say he's super humanly good though
2:20
he moves pretty fast so maybe he's a mutant but we're not to call him that in
2:25
in The Avengers because of copyright mutant well Fox own owns the
2:31
mutants and uh they do speaking of mutants all right so Thursday I watched
2:38
Age of Ultron and then Friday to wash the disgusting taste out of my mouth I
2:45
went along and saw Deadpool which I know you have also seen ah I have and I think
2:49
you'll agree Deadpool is [ __ ] awesome I absolutely do agree and I personally
2:56
also would agree it's a better film than Age of Ultron well I hope so mat I hope
3:00
we can at least agree on that look I'll go back to Age of Ultron down the track
3:04
when I've seen enough of the other shitty movies that this shitty movie
3:07
will make sense you can follow but uh Deadpool was a breath of fresh air and
3:13
uh and it made fun of those other movies that I've kind of tired of lately I
3:19
think now is a really good time for Deadpool to come out because it does
3:23
kind of parody the whole you know superhero takeover of Hollywood yeah you
3:29
know every film well not every film obviously but well I can think we can
3:32
say a vast majority right we get there at least four or five superhero films
3:37
every year now right and it's just accepted now that the tent pole movies
3:41
from every Studio are going except for Universal who don't have any superhero
3:45
licenses um are going to be superhero movies yeah there's a new Spider-Man
3:51
origin coming I mean for [ __ ] sake yeah they're making another one uh can't
3:55
we just now go okay look everyone has seen one of the Spider-Man origin
4:00
stories now let's just make movies about Spider-Man apparently there's they've
4:05
licensed him for a crossover into an Civil War he's going to be in in the new
4:09
Captain America so that's going to be interesting but are they going to recast
4:12
for that or are they going to cross over cast as well no it's a new guy the guy
4:16
who's it's the guy who's going to be in the Standalone film I guess but we don't
4:19
need another origin for Spider-Man for [ __ ] sake we know who absolutely so
4:22
hopefully I don't what is it confirmed that it's another origin cuz [ __ ] off
4:27
like yeah I believe so we don't need it you know what they should do this is
4:31
what I would pay to go and see they should pay those guys to who made
4:35
Italian Spider-Man to do an Italian Spider-Man movie and have it be Cannon
4:41
you know have it have it be a legitimate Spider-Man movie I watch the [ __ ] out of
4:47
that I agree CU that was great well Deadpool sort of crosses over into the
4:53
parody territory so yeah so for those who don't know Deadpool is a Marvel
4:58
character who is sort of uh he's a little bit different because he he kind
5:04
of makes fun of all the other characters and in the comics he makes fun of the
5:06
comics themselves and he does a lot of stuff like talking to the reader and you
5:10
know breaking the fourth wall as they call it and he does a lot of silly stuff
5:15
the film continues that into into the film realm he's got sort of a typical
5:20
superhero backstory but it's a little bit I guess more interesting than we
5:24
used to I would say I found it more interesting well I mean his girlfriend's
5:28
a prostitute so for that's interesting he's a mercenary but
5:32
not in a not in a military kind of he was a special ops Soldier they mentioned
5:37
that but that's not what you see him doing you basically see him trying to
5:40
make money on the street by he goes and roughs up a kid who's been stalking this
5:44
girl at school or something like that and he that's how he makes his money MH
5:47
so he's he's not a he's not a superhero he's not a superhero at all actually no
5:51
I would say No in fact he's he's pretty much only motivated by revenge or cash
5:57
so I would not call that a superhero although Batman's mostly motivated by
6:01
Revenge too but true we forgive him cuz he does some side jobs yeah just to be
6:06
good looking after people yeah but Deadpool does not look after people
6:10
unless it's no he does not through a sequence of events obviously he um he
6:15
gets Powers he's not a superhero but he gets powers and he becomes Deadpool kind
6:20
of just a mercenary I guess and uh he's out for revenge and it's funny because
6:24
in one of the comics from the early 2000s uh somebody described
6:30
Deadpool as looking like Ryan Reynolds cross with a Chihuahua right and then bam Ryan
6:36
Reynolds I got to say he was great in it and I know that he loves the character
6:40
and he really fought to get this film made so I'm glad I'm glad that it worked
6:44
out well because you know I love Spider-Man and if I was fighting for
6:49
ages and managed to get a Spider-Man film made where I played Spider-Man I'm
6:53
not sure it would work as well as this did oh man I would watch the [ __ ] out of that
6:57
M that would be so good and I've seen you in a Spider-Man costume yeah yeah
7:03
listeners if you want to see me in a Spider-Man costume go to our YouTube
7:06
channel and look up it was it called complaints yes complaints yeah yeah yeah
7:11
which was real responses to real complaints yeah so and that's what we
7:15
think of your complaints people if you ride in with complaints this is what we
7:18
think of you yeah and yeah you'll spot me in the background in a Spider-Man
7:23
suit we should make that happen Matt we should find out how to make that happen
7:27
we should write a story cuz you know Spider-Man the whole thing
7:31
is he's like a teenager he's getting younger and younger all the time really
7:35
I know he's a child in the next one it's a kid from Enders game I think holy [ __ ]
7:40
I mean I'm assuming he's a couple of years older than Enders game but even so
7:43
yeah he's going to be an infant before long but we should go the other way do
7:47
what Doctor Who did and yeah and flip it around so it's like it's like the um
7:52
kingdom come but in the Marvel Universe and it's an aging Spider-Man you know
7:59
and uh it's you it's played by you all right let's make that happen all right
8:05
that can be your next film I've decided for you 100% that can be my next film
8:10
cuz after watching Deadpool I dead set decided I'm not interested in making any
8:14
film that's not a Dopey action comedy because that is just it just has to be
8:19
my favorite genre but I mean so many things about this movie was so good like
8:24
it's [ __ ] hilarious um the acting was all was great the action was great all
8:30
the action scenes were were really good yeah they were great and even when it
8:34
went over the top it wasn't like Age of Ultron over the top right it's not
8:40
mind-numbing it's just no that's right he's very very skilled but he doesn't
8:45
break the laws of physics right no it's great go see it listeners go see oh man
8:51
you got don't take your kids to see it don't make that mistake imagine that oh
8:55
Jesus there was a kid we went and saw it up here at um at the Cinemas in Orban
9:01
and it was pretty packed cuz it was opening night and his these parents came
9:03
in and there was a kid and I was like you [ __ ] serious yeah yeah a kids
9:08
movie it is not absolutely not and apparently Ryan Reynolds did a TV spot
9:13
where he said please don't take your children to see
9:17
Deadpool I hope they don't water it down in the sequels because I know like this
9:23
has done so well I I almost guarantee I had to sit in the front row and I
9:27
pre-booked tickets like it's it was packed so I'm assuming they will green
9:32
light a sequel based on just the opening week but no they have they already also
9:36
see the studio oh they have of course so I can also see the studio going but if
9:41
we're putting a lot of money into the sequel we have to double the reach of
9:44
the first one which means we're going to have to aim for a PG-13 instead of the r
9:50
right well do you know the story of how this got made no okay you know the the
9:54
other The Wolverine film with with Deadpool in it Ryan Reynolds played
9:58
Deadpool in that and it was terrible and it was not Deadpool it was just they
10:01
just called this shitty character that he was in at Deadpool yeah Wade mhm yeah
10:06
he started out kind of like it was going to be Deadpool but then it kind of went
10:10
off the rails so that was that movie was kind of panned and Ryan Reynolds as a
10:16
big fan of the character got together with the guys who wrote this and the
10:20
director for for for Deadpool and they said oh man are we really it would be
10:24
great if we could make a real Deadpool movie you know like the way that it
10:28
should be and so they shot a bunch of test footage and showed it to Fox and
10:34
fox said I don't know man like it's doesn't look like a superhero movie I've
10:39
seen no kind of superhero movie I've ever seen before not sure the kids are
10:42
like this uh and so it kind of got sheld for a couple of years and then in an
10:47
interview recently um they talk because it got leaked the test footage leaked
10:51
online and people went bananas for it and said oh really [ __ ] you've got to
10:55
make this movie and then in an interview the other I think on Jimmy Kimmel or
10:58
something recently Ryan Reynolds said yeah yeah you know one of us leaked it
11:02
uh I don't know I'm 70% sure it wasn't me but who knows you know somebody
11:08
leaked it online and um oh that's magnificent so yeah and so based on the
11:13
response Fox were like fine here's some money and now wait so what you're saying
11:19
is that I can watch this test footage online yeah of course yeah yeah yeah
11:22
holy [ __ ] all right we got to we got to put that in the show notes because I
11:25
want to [ __ ] see that and I'm sure other people do who haven't seen it yet
11:30
okay yeah no there's some test it's uh it's kind of like you know the main kind
11:34
of set piece where the action on the highway really yes that that kind of
11:38
deal with effects and stuff uh I think limited you know what it's been a long
11:42
time um this watch this straight after
11:46
we record cool yeah no and so that's how the film got that must be just looking
11:52
back at photos of Ryan Reynolds in that
11:55
abysmal Wolverine movie yeah like if he he was a Deadpool fan and his agent said
12:01
to him yeah they want to cast you in a Wolverine movie you play a character
12:05
called Dead Pool he must have been like [ __ ] it Hallelujah like this is [ __ ]
12:11
my dream right um it'd be like if they cast you and Spider-Man or me and I
12:16
don't know [ __ ] me as Robin Hood right yeah that's my dream if you're
12:22
listening Studios and um cuz we know they steal from us constantly they do so
12:29
these ideas coming next summer mattam is
12:34
Spider-Man and you're like they haven't spoken to me yet
12:39
what's going on [ __ ] apparently it's a given well I did I did say I'd do it so
12:44
yeah yeah exactly but just like he must
12:48
have been so disappointed that this is how they were doing it yeah because it's
12:54
[ __ ] awful it's a like the movie is just shitty overall and then that
12:57
character is just it's not dead well he he makes a lot of fun of Hugh Jackman in
13:03
this Deadpool movie in a in a nice way in hilarious ways yeah did you see Hugh
13:08
Jackman tweeted a photo of a framed picture of Deadpool just on his on his
13:13
table oh really yeah yeah I thought it was pretty funny so he I mean he seems
13:18
like a cool guy I guess so he's obviously okay with the joke I don't
13:23
think he takes [ __ ] Wolverine any more seriously than Royal R right exactly
13:29
yeah yeah I mean I first saw Hugh Jackman live on
13:36
stage in the Beauty and the Beast musical where he played
13:40
geston you know yeah I think he just does the Hollywood thing to get paid
13:45
yeah and he's just a a theater Pon the rest of the time that's funny we're
13:50
talking actually the other day about how vgo Morton you know from Lord of the
13:55
Rings and and you know numerous other films he's quite he's a very good actor
13:59
trying to accomplish actor yeah acting is just his hobby he's a he's actually a
14:03
musician and he also um he owns a horse ranch and he just does acting for fun oh
14:09
Jesus Christ that's great and you know he only did Lord of the Rings because his kid
14:16
told him to really yeah so they had already cast Simon Town's end you know
14:21
the guy who played stat in Queen of the Damned so they' cast him started filming
14:26
and then realized he's too young he doesn't look right doesn't look like a
14:30
hardened Warrior yeah so um they approached vgo and uh he was like to his
14:36
agent no what's the name of this character no no no no interest in this
14:41
[ __ ] hung up and then just said to his son oh they wanted me to play some
14:45
[ __ ] Knight or something in some [ __ ] King and Queens movie and he
14:50
said like what was it he's like oh it's Lord of the Rings and his son was like
14:54
Dad you're [ __ ] doing this yeah I think everyone's glad he did
15:00
speaking of casting Deadpool does have a
15:04
uh nice evil British villain yeah yeah
15:08
and uh Ed screen who people probably
15:12
know if they remember uh played Dario narus in only one season of Game of
15:17
Thrones before they recast him for some reason what uh wearing a terrible
15:23
wig you remember that I didn't even no I don't I don't even know who that
15:28
character is yeah yeah he's the the warrior dude who ends up boning uh
15:34
kisi what just Google Ed screen SK r i n
15:40
Game of Thrones and you'll see him in a in a terrible cone in the Barbarian
15:45
wig [ __ ] it is that guy yeah yeah wow there you
15:52
go yeah and he got he did he did look a
15:56
little larger than life he did stand out a bit in that in that series but I think
16:01
they just did him wrong cuz he's a good actor that's right and then yeah it was
16:06
some other guy later yeah just like a normal looking dude that you just would
16:10
not believe [ __ ] kisi would sleep with at least this guy was like a big
16:15
[ __ ] dude but I saw another Ed screen movie this
16:19
week on a plane during a 31-hour flight
16:24
from Singapore to [ __ ] Utah Jesus um and that movie is the transporter
16:30
refueled okay and Ed screen plays the transporter he's the new transporter and
16:37
um I'm not going to say I'm not going to say this is a good movie but it's pretty
16:43
[ __ ] entertaining I would say that about well I don't know all of them I
16:47
liked no maybe all of them the first Transporter movie is genuinely good yeah
16:52
I agree I like it yeah the second one [ __ ] the second one was uh the third one
16:58
was all right I think the second one was the worst of them yeah agreed I think
17:02
yeah ref this one it's like yeah you know it's they they're actually saying
17:07
that it's a reboot in the title now why can't they just give stuff
17:12
normal names you know who started this Tim Burton oh yeah Batman Returns I
17:16
remember when they announced the title was it's going to be Batman Returns and
17:18
I was like what yeah that's right do you know what it's funny that you mention
17:23
that because I still remember the exact situation where I learned that it was
17:28
going to be called Batman returns you want to hear a weird story just as a
17:31
segue of course I do do you remember a
17:34
TV game show from the 80s or no early '
17:38
90s I guess in Australia called the main
17:41
event yeah of course yeah okay and they had a panel two panels of uh
17:48
celebrities and they had a live studio audience and they also cut to home
17:53
viewers who in like a mad minute at the end had to answer questions for each
17:59
team MH my mom took me and my brother to be part of the studio
18:05
audience for the main event and uh it was Georgie Parker was the captain of
18:11
one team Jim moan was the captain of another team right funnily enough cuz I
18:16
worked on Jim Owen's show like 25 years after that yeah but
18:21
um one of the questions was is the sequel to Batman called
18:26
Batman 2 or Batman Returns the being of but I was just sitting there going wait
18:32
what what what go back there's another Batman coming out that was the first
18:37
time that I was aware that there was going to be a Batman sequel cuz
18:40
obviously at that point 10 years old Batman was just like the best movie ever
18:45
yeah of course yeah no it was literally it was the film that got me interested
18:48
in film which is kind of an odd choice I guess but that's really because when you
18:53
know the craft that Tim Burton puts into his movies especially back in those days
18:58
like did you have that Batman book it's about A4 size still got it Dan you still
19:03
got it [ __ ] yeah man it's on my bookshelf that's awesome but it shows
19:07
you the models and it shows like Tim Burton like kneeling down in the Gotham
19:11
City streets and stuff like that like I [ __ ] wore the pages of that thin by
19:16
just going [ __ ] this is how you make a movie this is awesome it's on my
19:20
bookshelf right now that's R sorry I've totally segwayed away from the
19:26
transporter but that's all right the only thing I want to say about it is
19:28
that this sums up the movie for me right so the transporter is driving off right
19:35
I think it's out of a car park and he he holds up so you know it's a shot through
19:40
the wind screen he holds up a remote control presses it and all the cars
19:45
behind him blow up right so he's driving away from all these explosions then he
19:51
throws the remote control out the window into a garbage bin that he passes and it
19:58
blows up yeah yeah so if you just want [ __ ]
20:03
explosions a hot dude in a suit and hot chicks everywhere this is a movie for
20:07
you all right also I think Luke might be here are you recording Luke I'm started
20:13
recording all right do you want to count us in again we'll do a reboot somebody
20:16
else has uh infiltrated the podcast we've got a special guest joining us
20:22
today hey guys I I I made it just took me an hour you uh took his sweet time
20:27
today Luke we even doing this earlier there was a problem with
20:32
Skype well you know what it worked out fine because we've already discussed
20:36
Deadpool and you haven't seen it yet ah awesome yeah so it's kind of perfect so
20:40
Luke is being taken to Deadpool tonight as his Valentine's Day present yes yeah
20:46
so you'll enjoy it Luke it's great it is that's all we'll say a love story isn't
20:51
it it is a love story it is yeah it's a tender that is a fact love story and if
20:55
you love movies that feature a man with a tiny
20:59
hand then this is for you oh my god tiny hand is so funny you're going to laugh a
21:05
lot Luke yeah you are as Matt said yesterday if you see this movie and
21:11
aren't laughing out loud there's something wrong with you cuz there's
21:14
nothing wrong with this movie I genuinely believe that it's hilarious
21:19
yeah um well we were talking about casting a minute ago uh not spells but
21:26
actors and I saw a weird casting announcement this week yes that I'd like
21:32
to discuss just briefly yeah agreed um the new alien film it's actually the
21:38
Prometheus sequel It's now called alien Covenant and it is the beginnings of
21:43
actual proper prequels to the first alien apparently yeah uh now Stars
21:48
Michael fasbender and Denny McBride now I had to Google this to reassure myself
21:54
that there wasn't just some other actor called Danny McBride that I was getting confused
22:00
Kenny yes it's the comedian Danny McBride and don't get me wrong I [ __ ]
22:05
love Eastbound and Down like it's hilarious [ __ ] love but I can't see
22:11
how he's going to fit into an alien movie unless he's the comic relief has
22:15
he played anything straight before I don't know good question I'm going to
22:19
Google it right now is here well here's the question is he going to be playing
22:22
something straight in this film where Ridley Scott gone old and scile
22:27
yeah maybe he thinks Kenny Powers is a real
22:33
person he wants him there to motivate the
22:36
cast yeah well I mean and this might be might be great because he I think he's
22:41
probably a good actor I mean I think a lot of comic actors are good actors cuz
22:46
it is a skill like I was actually talking to Jenna the other day about I
22:50
think um um Borat oh yeah Sasha Baron Cohen I can't stand him yeah I think
22:55
he's actually he's a really good actor uh because I feel like you know a lot of
23:00
people maybe don't like the style of Comedy but to do that to be Borat and to
23:04
be Bruno like yeah takes chops and yeah and to not break character when people
23:11
are saying this insane [ __ ] think it takes a lot of skill I even go back I
23:15
one of my favorite actors was a comedian John balushi oh yeah and he can pretty
23:19
much do anything yeah that's true yeah he'll do anything you'd let him do
23:23
anything yeah definitely yeah he will literally do any drug now over and over until he
23:30
dies another great actor Chris Farley John Candy while we're naming fat
23:37
actors who died no no that is literally my no no but I I
23:43
genuinely love Chris fary but he's not he's not a great actor he's he's a he's
23:47
like a one trick pony but I love that pony yeah me too me too fat guy in a
23:53
little jacket that is that is his one thing and he he's just was the best at it
23:59
we got it on know what I'm saying no you
24:02
didn't oh so good and a horrific death I got to say cuz you know he died in a
24:08
like an ice cream store or something didn't he what had a heart attack oh
24:12
[ __ ] I remember dying I don't remember how yeah no I think let me fact check
24:16
where it was exactly but I'm pretty sure he died in public and the way that in my
24:20
head ice cream everywhere death was [ __ ]
24:27
hilarious yep yep no that's absolutely not true he
24:33
was found dead by his younger brother in an apartment I wish I hadn't look that
24:36
up [ __ ] ice cre where you getting [ __ ] from so you
24:41
just got him like falling around the ice cream store ice cream going everywhere exactly he
24:46
he people not knowing if he was doing a bit or actually dying in my head he was
24:51
in an ice cream Stu he had a heart attack yeah and he was like trying to
24:54
eat the ice cream while he was having a heart attack and like
24:59
I die I will finish this cone oh my
25:05
God yeah you're imagining you're Imagining the coffee Crystal sketch but
25:10
with ice cream that is literally he's dying that is literally what I was imag
25:16
I apologize David Spade if you're listening I'm really sorry I know he was
25:19
your best friend David was so distro by Chris Farley's death understandably that
25:25
he didn't even go to the funeral he could not accept that he had died and I
25:28
find that heartbreaking that sucks man yeah this I mean I mean there's a
25:32
comedian who's not really a great actor no no I like I was going to say I don't
25:36
I'm not a big fan of his his comedies but I feel like yeah that's that would
25:41
have been rough and I yeah feel for him on that but yeah Chris Farley man what a
25:44
guy uh he's not starring in Alien Covenant sadly cuz he's dead but Danny
25:48
McBride is Danny McBride I mean there's always a bumbling idiot in all the alien
25:54
movies maybe he's playing that maybe he playing not yeah I I hope he's either in
26:00
an animatronic alien suit yeah or I hope he has said he still has a mullet no
26:07
matter what he's doing I'm not of imagining him with the mullet it's just
26:09
occurred to me that they could change he could not have the mustache and not have
26:13
the mullet and it would you know I don't I don't know I've ever seen him without
26:16
them so I don't I'm not sure he exists without them
26:20
yeah yeah but yeah I don't know the accent's probably fake too I don't know
26:26
he's probably just a normal dude who can act in anything he probably loves Alien
26:30
movies because he's our age yeah do you know what I what I
26:34
realized so just just jumping back to Deadpool and this doesn't give anything
26:38
away it's not about the film itself but it's just occurred to me recently
26:42
watching a number of films in dead pools included that the people making movies
26:46
now are our age because growing up I used to see movies with cultural
26:51
references from 10 years before you know stuff from the' 70s or or whatever but
26:56
now the references in movies are stuff we know about because they're
27:02
our things so it's it's like our generation has finally come of age and
27:06
is now in Hollywood making movies see I wonder about I mean again this is not a
27:11
spoiler for Deadpool but it's got a lot of jokes that are time sensitive yeah in
27:17
a way yeah like it because it makes fun of a lot of in
27:21
particular like say superhero films that were not very good yeah I think Deadpool
27:25
is so good that it'll the test of time better than some of those other films
27:30
but then in the future when people watch Deadpool are they going to be like what
27:34
[ __ ] movie is he talking about yeah because they're the ones that are just
27:37
going to Fade Into Obscurity yeah like like green lanon and X-Men you know
27:41
Wolverine Origins they're going to be like what what oh those those I've never
27:45
seen those because I missed the start of the whole Deadpool thing have we
27:48
discussed how we might see some more um rated movies come out uh we haven't did
27:55
you want to you have inside know good point Luke this is the first superhero
27:59
movie that's uh that's narrated and it's done it's broken records for the highest
28:04
grossing weekend for an narrated movie I the first one since Dolph Len's Punisher in the
28:10
80s which which was not a success Dolph lungren but yeah hopefully yeah now
28:15
they're sort of setting it up that their adults will watch and will pay money and
28:19
there's a market there for it so yeah cuz the problem is most of the time
28:23
they're not even really concerned about box office money they're concerned about
28:27
Merchant dice money and they know they're not going to sell as many toys
28:32
for Deadpool as they would you know for SPID man but people will buy shirts Our
28:38
Generation buy T-shirts correct man but like kids buy [ __ ] everything big
28:45
money pop vinyl things well see I I will probably buy one of those pop vinyl
28:50
things of Deadpool now do you know what I mean like I think Deadpool's my guy
28:53
he's he's the superhero that represents me as a person sure yeah I know so he
28:58
might be my my like one guy that I buy everything from yeah Spirit hero yeah
29:05
that's right yeah no I just was thinking about that today and hoping that maybe
29:09
yeah we see some bit more that's bit more adult oriented well do you reckon
29:14
that the Sonic the Hedgehog movie that they've green lit is going to be R-rated
29:18
I have a feeling that they might pass on the AR I like to think that it would be
29:22
go straight for porn hardcore porn I mean obviously I'm hoping it's going to
29:27
be some kind of gritty crime thriller or something but
29:31
imagine that what the [ __ ] are they going to make a movie about Sonic the
29:35
Hedgehog rings I reckon like he was engaged um and like kind of the crow
29:40
style his wife was murdered the night before their wedding and um her
29:45
engagement ring is missing and he has to track it
29:48
down I just could they Sonic is dead
29:53
unfortunately like I with a huge Sonic I was in the Sega Nintendo War I was on
29:58
Sega site sure I was a huge Sonic fan he hasn't released a good game in 20 years
30:05
well Sonic Rush on the DS was pretty good but yeah I know what you mean not a
30:08
main you hasn't been a mainstream success yeah in video games like I don't
30:14
know they're not making a Call of Duty Sonic the Hedgehog oh my God imagine
30:20
just imagine that but I mean can we like this is a liveaction film this is not a
30:25
CG film like they make this clear in the article this is doesn't say that he as a
30:29
character won't be CG no I know that but he's going to be like Smurfs it's going
30:34
to be like a Garfield or a Smurf oh I hope it's nothing like Garfield okay no
30:38
no no I'll stop you there well Smurfs maybe but I mean Garfield or say like
30:43
the Ninja Turtles right they're set in the real world with with a silly
30:47
character or you know like the Ninja Turtles whatever Smurf and the Smurfs
30:51
had their own world where angry Jews wanted to boil them down for gold right
30:56
but that that is the Smurfs film actually live action or is it just a CG
31:00
no I think it's live action C characters oh okay got Neil Patrick
31:05
Harris in it and then the Smurfs jump over him that's all I know of the movie
31:10
galliver Travis style is he gagam what no I think he's the good guy in it oh
31:15
okay I haven't seen it he could be gag for a while actually from memory I think
31:18
it's Hank aaria as G A gagam oh okay he's all right he's that guy that looks
31:23
a bit like Jeremy Irons and does voices on The Simpsons correct wow they've
31:27
really really gone on for this a horrible Jewish stereotype done as a
31:31
cartoon is bad enough but honestly Google Hank aaria gagam [ __ ]
31:38
hell that's offensive let's hope it'll be better than that what the [ __ ] is it going to
31:44
be about like Dr Robotnik who's who's now called Dr Eggman what apparently
31:49
yeah no they changed his name a while ago he's now Dr Eggman why why was Dr
31:53
Robotnik not good Dr Eggman is a [ __ ] stupid name mhm Robotnik is I know he's
32:00
OV in shape but right it just removes any kind of Menace that he may have had
32:05
yeah like Dr Robotnik sounds like a bad guy hello I'm Dr Eggman and I look like
32:10
an egg like I think it was because they they were really going for a young
32:16
audience when they started to change the name and go to the cartoons and
32:19
everything dud I was eight when I was playing Sonic the Hedgehog and Dr Robotnik was
32:26
fine my okay okay even as a kid all right the villains are the most
32:31
interesting part of any story for me the
32:35
villains Absolut more interesting and to call him Dr Eggman even as a child I
32:41
would have been like that's not very interesting Dr
32:46
Robotnik robots he Robotnik like no good Nick he's like a bad guy like it says
32:53
something about him all Eggman says is he's
32:56
ovular and I could see that exactly yeah
33:01
yep anyway hopefully this will be good it won't be it won't be it won't be such
33:07
a weird thing to do I'm really surprised if they actually go ahead with making it
33:11
because it just seems who's going to go see this hey I've just done a quick
33:16
little Google and I can explain why they've changed it oh okay very simple
33:22
in Japan he was always called Dr Eggman oh when it was first translated into
33:27
American they went with something a bit more dramatic and then as they
33:30
streamlined it just went back to what it can be the same worldwide fine yeah less
33:36
interesting than you want it to be but uh that's actually makes sort of sense
33:41
and yeah fine well I won't be watching that one
33:47
unless for some reason it comes out and everyone's like [ __ ] you wouldn't
33:50
believe it Sonic it's like it's up there with it's like the new Deadpool yeah
33:54
that's right Sonic's up there making fun of all video game characters and [ __ ]
33:58
yeah do you guys remember did I ever show you this when I was like 10 and I
34:03
used to have um Sr the Sega radio a little local radio station and we had a whole running
34:09
segment week to week where Tails was suing Sonic for um Mal treatment on the
34:16
set of um Sonic 2 right Matt do you have capabilities to
34:23
capture from cassette tape audio cassette tape to digital if I could get
34:27
a cassette player yeah I definitely do I I'll see if I can get it captured we'll
34:31
put it on the specials Channel somewhere down the track sweet that would be great
34:35
just a quick update on uh Star Wars news which probably doesn't warrant the
34:39
jingle so maybe we could just have a short version of the jingle inserted
34:43
starss thank you for that they've started shooting episode 8 officially
34:46
that's great well is it because not great well I haven't had any phone
34:51
calls yeah that's true I mean and I guess they they've decided to go ahead
34:55
with uh Mr Looper as the Director that's definitely true but I mean I was I
35:01
thought I was fairly explicit on the podcast I will play anything in this
35:05
film right so I don't know it's just for them to not call at all that is a bit
35:11
bit rude really isn't it yeah it's a bit insulting so I think so we're going to
35:15
boycott Star Wars from now on or yeah I think listeners if you could just if you
35:20
could just burn all your Star Wars merchandise oh you know what don't I
35:23
don't want you to have to do it just send it all to me and I'll burn it l already uh you
35:28
missed this but we've we've kind of we're trying to leak some ideas to
35:33
Hollywood via the podcast because our ideas are always right um yeah the next
35:39
Spider-Man movie is going to be a Spider-Man movie where Spidey is
35:42
approaching middle age and um doesn't know if he can keep up the superhero
35:46
stuff and guess who's going to play Spider-Man yeah have a guess he's got a
35:49
beard could be any anyway good is it is it you
35:53
m it is yeah yeah y so we're putting that out there right well you've already
35:58
done your work as Italian Spider-Man yes yes that's true too yeah they've seen me
36:03
in the costume yeah yeah it's always been my dream to be Robin Hood right
36:07
since I was like five years old I'm trying to push for a Robin Hood movie
36:11
where I Star as Robin Hood not really sure what the gimmick is more than happy
36:14
for it to be just one more generic Robin Hood movie but where I get to play it
36:18
right that's fine so Luke take this opportunity what is what is your like
36:23
dream character to play that we want to float to Hollywood now well they've
36:27
already said they're going to make it but they haven't cast anyone yet inste a
36:29
Robotech live action of course now I wouldn't want to be recant
36:35
would wouldn't mind him being Max okay don't know who that is but let's make it
36:39
happen anyway he's one of the other Pilots he wasn't the main guy okay oh
36:44
that's just like you to let someone else stand in the spotlight you just St to
36:48
the side back was the best fighter
36:51
pilot so so he's like po po de of
36:55
exactly like Po that same cocky awareness of himself they'll just get
36:59
Oscar ISAC to do it then if he's exactly like Po yeah yeah but they'll just
37:03
they'll just change the he had blue hair oh oh yeah yeah yeah you could do blue
37:07
hair I can you could pull that off do you reckon you could have blue hair in
37:11
time what I'm really worried about is the scene where Max takes his shirt off
37:14
and he's got a whole bunch of Star Wars tattoos that's just going to be confusing for the
37:19
plot let me look up what Max looks like robot Tech and we'll link to this obviously on
37:26
we'll post on the Instagram we do a comparison right we should do all of
37:29
them right we'll do a series of of the character and then us in the role
37:35
absolutely oh yeah Max is cool yeah yep I was imagining like spiky blue hair but
37:41
he's he's got like a like a beetles cut you know what I had this action figure
37:45
oh nice this is the dude with the glasses right it is yes oh it says here
37:50
um in keeping with the Japanese they're going to change rootech to egg
37:55
Tech Robotech Egg Robot
38:01
egg wow this is so 80s man I'm going to watch this all again oh watch it it's
38:06
still great do you have a costume Luke not yet but I am going to get one one
38:11
day are you going to get one in the next few days so you can take a photo of
38:13
yourself in it probably in the next not next few days let me Google and see if I
38:16
can find one yeah we'll figure something out maybe we can maybe maybe I can
38:20
Photoshop one yeah or get the white white jacket I'm sure you've got
38:24
something I'm going to have to you probably got a better chance than me
38:27
getting a [ __ ] Robin Hood thing together but I'll try we'll figure
38:30
something out yeah so um Luke I think he should be bearded and he should have a
38:35
Blue Beard as well uh I can I can do that yeah I'm prepared to make sacrifices for the
38:40
movie Luke do you happen to know if Robo is on Netflix it's on YouTube oh okay
38:47
well that's fine well it used to be anyway it was like every single episode
38:51
was available free on YouTube okay not officially yeah no officially oh really
38:57
yeah I seem to remember that they did it oh this was like years ago but sure I
39:02
remember when more of that happened before they cracked down I watched two
39:06
seasons of scream Queens on YouTube oh speaking of copyright um yeah
39:12
we don't have to talk about this too much but did you see this uh business
39:16
about happy birthday yeah I did so for for a very long time uh happy birthday
39:22
if you go to a restaurant generally speaking I don't know if Australia
39:25
really gave too much of a [ __ ] but I maybe I just never noticed but if you go
39:28
to a restaurant uh and they sing Happy Birthday to you they don't sing Happy
39:32
Birthday they sing a birthday song that generally they made up or some other
39:37
thing like in in public generally businesses don't use the Happy Birthday
39:42
song correct because Warner Warner
39:45
Chapel uh owned the copyright or so they told everyone they claimed that was
39:51
copyrighted in 1935 and uh and they own the copyright so people have been and and if you
39:57
wanted to use it which people have on occasion um they've been paying him
40:02
royalties to for the for the right to use it um and there was a documentary
40:07
made uh about the song because it kind of a bunch of evidence came up that
40:12
suggested that the song predated all that and and it was it should be in the
40:17
public domain because you know there's a song from yeah 19 kicking around as a
40:22
traditional song before Warner claimed copyright on it right in in the 19th
40:27
Century there was a song called good morning to you which was good morning to
40:31
you good morning to you I'm allowed to sing it now because it's not copyright
40:35
that's right in fact I've seen a Betty Boop not Betty Boop Little Lulu cartoon
40:40
from like the 20s where there's a school scene and and students sing that to
40:46
their teacher good morning dear teacher good morning to you I should have
40:51
testified as a uh as an expert witness pop culture expert well there's a
40:55
documentary made and then based on that some evidence that was Unearthed uh
40:59
during the making of it like some old sheet music and some stuff the copyright
41:02
has been overturned and uh Warner Chapel is now being forced to pay back $14
41:09
million in uh in royalties that they collected on the song just before we go
41:14
off see you have they finalized all this [ __ ] um I'm pretty sure yeah they have
41:19
to make a they have to make a settlement it's been it's over 10 that's right okay
41:22
the thing about copyright that just [ __ ] bugs me right is that at its
41:28
heart copyright law protects artists
41:32
right yes but in reality it just limits
41:37
artists because you should not be able to copyright [ __ ] happy birthday the
41:43
whole point of copyright was that everyone was building on other people's
41:48
things and other people were making more money than the original artist and and
41:52
that wasn't good you know so when El Frank bour wrote The Wizard of Oz
41:58
somebody else wrote a Wizard of Oz sequel that was unauthorized and made a
42:02
bunch of cash on it that the Frank bom didn't see that sucked so copyright laws
42:07
came in to say okay for 10 years after you write something only you can use
42:13
that then y everyone can use it and that
42:17
was fine but now it's G [ __ ] crazy with corporations like Warner holding on
42:24
to copyrights of things they have no business and you know who I blame for
42:28
this I don't think you should be able to sell them on correct 100% yeah the mouse
42:33
the [ __ ] Mouse Walt Disney changing copyright laws so that long after his
42:39
death Mickey Mouse will never lapse into the public domain yeah they keep every
42:45
time the the copyright time gets up to
42:49
the end Disney throws a bunch of money at changing it so that it's extended and
42:54
so we now have this Perpetual copyright cuz it used to be if you wanted to make
42:58
a tazan movie you just had to wait till 10 years after the first one you could
43:03
make a tazan movie that's why there's cthulu everything because HP Lovecraft
43:07
is very popular and it's so old that it's not covered by the new copyright
43:12
laws so that it's public domain now and as somebody who like you know I make
43:17
music and I you know we make this podcast and we write you know film
43:20
related thing I I kind of consider myself creative we we make we make stuff
43:25
we do you know and 10 years is pretty good I I Reon I'd be all right with that
43:29
yeah well I as I said like I just think it's a real problem when you sld the
43:32
copyright and then people who really had nothing to do with the product and now
43:37
making money off it or suing people there was that really good one that
43:40
happened a while ago um Men at Work the Down Under oh God yeah absolutely they
43:45
were sued because they had the part the start of their song had something that
43:49
their Girl Guides had actually come up with what the Girl Guides didn't sue
43:54
they' sold on the rights to it and the company that brought it went we're going
43:58
to do Men at Work far out man well I don't understand how that works or why
44:05
that works yeah exactly right it's that's not that copyright's not
44:08
protecting the artist you should not be able to buy a copyright correct that's
44:12
it goes against everything that copyright which literally means the
44:16
right to make copies did you see actually we this I think this was in a
44:19
spreadsheet last week and it didn't get moved forward but the the the um the
44:23
Fine Brothers did you see this attempting to cop well copyright prend
44:27
to patent or or maybe copyright the format of their videos the reaction
44:32
videos where they film people reacting to things yeah so they give a bunch of
44:36
kids you know like an original Game Boy and then the kids are like huh where do
44:39
you put the you know the internet connection kind of you know sure like
44:45
what this cassette tape you know where what are the headphones plug into it I
44:49
mean don't get me wrong that sounds awful I would never watch that some of
44:52
them are funny but uh they didn't exactly come up with that what was the
44:57
first reaction video you can remember seeing the first one I remember seeing
45:02
was two girls in one cup yeah yeah that's that's where I saw
45:07
reaction video Start well they tried to copyright the their format and they made
45:12
they even and then what happened was they um they left very vague yeah they
45:18
said they were copyrighting reaction videos and then they issued takedowns to
45:21
a bunch of other YouTube videos uh and then everyone was like
45:25
what the [ __ ] are you doing that doesn't come under copyright that sounds more
45:28
like a patent is that right cuz copyright copyright is on a specific
45:33
work a specific I that's why I wasn't sure was copyright maybe they were
45:36
trying to patent the format they were really trying to do was basically
45:40
franchise their work going hey guys you can do what we're doing you can have the
45:45
same format the same like visuals and everything but we take a cut of the
45:49
money they were just trying to franchise their yeah they made a video explaining
45:52
it but they weren't I mean I gotta be honest like when you sit down and look
45:56
at it I think what they were trying to do was not not that bad but they were
46:01
just really awful at the way they went about communicating it and it just made
46:04
them sound like a bunch of [ __ ] like to be honest yeah it seemed like they were
46:10
just trying to stop everybody from from making money off a thing that they
46:14
didn't really invent yeah that's right and and it's kind of there's still a bit
46:17
of a communal aspect to the internet I mean everyone understands that if
46:20
something's comes from a studio or something and gets put on YouTube then
46:24
that's obviously a real thing that you're not supposed to [ __ ] around with
46:28
but the internet and specifically YouTube is made like it's like if
46:33
somebody tried to copyright unboxing videos and it's like no I just bought a
46:37
new camera and I'm going to make a [ __ ] unboxing video cuz that's my
46:40
right as a citizen of Earth yeah like there was this community
46:44
of people on YouTube we're all making these videos this is all great and then
46:47
somebody and then one person in the group goes oh you guys yeah you can't
46:51
make that video that's my video also you got to give me a bunch of money now and
46:54
everyone turns and looks at them and like what yeah
46:57
like that's what happened Sony's trying
47:00
to copyright let's play yeah you know
47:05
they you know what they can trademark the phrase let's play if for some reason
47:10
they have claim to that but they cannot patent [ __ ] talking over a video
47:16
game yeah I think what they're trying to do it might be trademarking the word or
47:21
something because everyone uses let's play if they can get hold of the word
47:26
and have that and incorporate into their stuff but that's only ify can it's just
47:31
a description of what's happening in the video if that's only if if they could
47:35
prove that they said it first and that it was a trademark then it's it's not
47:39
let's play isn't really like a a name it's like a description of what happens
47:44
in the video it's a type of video sure yeah yeah it's a weird one it this whole
47:49
thing reminds me a bit of um back in the I guess the ' 80s when uh everybody was
47:54
writing software for computers and Bill Gates started started sending letters
47:57
around to everybody saying don't stop giving your stuff away for free we
48:00
should be charging people for licenses for this and then everyone was like [ __ ]
48:05
off and then look how that turned out I don't know I think it's a reaction to
48:08
the fact that there used to be this thing with musicians and and you know
48:14
film and TV content producers and and
48:18
other artists in air quotes that you got to a certain level and you got paid the
48:24
big bucks for that and that kind of doesn't happen now because of the
48:28
democratization of the media through the internet where it's kind of like if you
48:33
want to go down that route you have to uh either fit into the media landscape
48:38
as it exists now or just be doing it for the love of it but you're not going to
48:42
make any money yeah I listened to um Jamie Jer who is the singer for the
48:48
metal band heat breed he has a podcast where he interviews a lot of other uh
48:52
singers and or just metal musicians it's very metal focused but it's really
48:57
fascinating to hear people from bands that I grew up listening to like Rob
49:02
Flynn from Machine Head talking about how much they have to [ __ ] around and
49:08
struggle to make ends meet these days because nobody wants to go see a a live
49:13
show and the only decent tours they can do now are these festivals because
49:18
people are used to just paying 100 bucks and getting to see like you know 500
49:22
bands that they like they don't want to go pay to go see one band so he said
49:27
basically they had to say no we're not doing festivals anymore um we're going
49:31
to go do shows in cities and if not enough people buy the tickets we're
49:34
going to cancel the shows he goes because I have to eat food yeah like we
49:39
just can't do it anymore and it's so strange to me that I I know they're not
49:42
a big band Machine Head but like you got you know you've heard of them right Mach
49:46
yeah even I know of them right well they I mean they they don't have much money
49:52
you know and even even um Dave mustain from Mega Death right who who is I would
49:58
say one of the most famous people in
50:02
medal Metallica but Meade is a huge band yeah Meade are a big band and even he
50:08
says they can't afford to for for things like CU you know Soundwave got canceled
50:12
here because there was a bit there was a whole bunch of drama and a lot of bands
50:15
were really really hurt by it because they booked flights and stuff that were
50:19
non-refundable and then and it all fell apart and then it was just really
50:23
interesting to hear that like yeah that that kind of
50:27
could actually destroy a band these days yeah yeah cuz they just don't have any
50:31
money yeah yeah and it's kind of counted to the argument where you know people
50:35
say oh [ __ ] I'll just download it because you know they they've got heaps
50:38
of money they don't no that's right they really don't yeah they absolutely unless
50:42
unless it's like Taylor Swift or you know kane west or some of these you
50:47
know five people at the top yeah they they they don't have any money and and
50:53
also like Taylor Swift right she she does is Rich like there's no no way you
50:57
can deny that but she's also an EMP employee of Emi or whoever she signed
51:02
with you know what I mean and she just has to [ __ ] do whatever they say like
51:05
it's not like go to the days of [ __ ] like lad Zeppelin Rockstar millionaire
51:11
do what the [ __ ] you want yep like that's that's over yeah what what do we
51:16
want to do for this album we'll just do whatever the [ __ ] we want exactly kind
51:19
of no way doesn't happen so I'm I follow um John Crosby on Facebook we're
51:25
Facebook friends and he's uh he's the guy behind vast if
51:30
anyone remembers vast from the '90s and onwards but you all stopped listening
51:34
after the90s exactly [ __ ] love that song so um
51:40
sorry that's probably copyright well I I don't think he'd care to be honest he's
51:44
put all his albums on his own he ditched his record label put all his albums on
51:47
his own website he charges five bucks for him he's like look you can afford to
51:51
buy $5 worth of an album and I get5 whole dollar for this album instead of
51:58
do it that way the sad thing is heing on a newb now and I know that because he's
52:02
putting a whole offf on eBay like he's selling guitars he's selling amps and
52:08
you can you know that every time he does that he's trying to fund a new album and
52:12
it's like well I mean you know this this guy wasile example big back in the day
52:17
yeah a high-profile example of that is Trent resar I mean he's he's obviously
52:22
he's fine financially but he almost wasn't uh and that kind of kicked him
52:27
off into into what he's doing now that's mostly because he spent most of his
52:31
money on drugs yeah well and he said that his his manager and everybody kind
52:36
of ran off with all more money and all this kind of stuff he he got screwed
52:39
over in the in the late 90s and but he managed to turn it around and now he's
52:43
very vocal about [ __ ] the record labels [ __ ] you know all that stuff you need to
52:47
look after yourself um but he's they do the same thing they sell the gear after they do a
52:53
big tour yeah like he's I mean maybe not so these days cuz he's kind of revamped
52:59
the way the whole band exists yeah that's right um but they yeah they were
53:03
selling a bunch of stuff on eBay and um
53:06
and yeah I know it's just H paying directly to an artist like through band
53:12
camp or something these days I think is great I think the way they do films now
53:17
through Kickstarter say is interesting but it's a little bit scary because it's
53:22
not a tested business model yeah that's right yeah it's
53:27
scared of it but then again but then again the old ones don't work either so
53:31
what does it really matter we need to find the middle ground when all
53:35
everything started artists made nothing true and then we went the other way and
53:41
artists made an absolute Fortune we need to find a middle ground where yeah
53:45
they're sort of making enough to live but they're not yeah it can still be
53:50
that many people out there yeah well there's companies like um uh I can't
53:57
remember the name of his company used to be called band happy Matt Halper who's
53:59
the drummer from a band periphery who I love one of my favorite bands he started
54:04
a thing and a whole bunch of other bands um got involved with it he called it
54:09
band happy and what it basically meant with the band tours right so say when
54:13
periphery comes to Australia you jump on to the band happy
54:16
website and you can book lessons guitar lessons or drum lessons or whatever with
54:22
members of the band wow and so so they rather than just coming over and doing a
54:27
tour and then hopefully breaking even at the end they can supplement that a bit
54:33
by doing you know like they'll come over here while they're here yeah oh that is
54:37
amazing yeah isn't that great have you done that I did a lesson with um TOA
54:42
Abasi from Animals As Leaders when they were at here I did a guitar lesson with
54:45
him through that yeah it's great right cuz a I got to meet toen which was
54:49
[ __ ] amazing that gu [ __ ] jam with mindblowing yeah exactly I got I've got
54:53
to play his um his new ivanz uh custom he's new one he's got a new one now but
54:58
the previous one and like up it was up on the stage in in the in the Metro it's
55:02
just it's cool right because it's awesome for me cuz like I said I
55:06
wouldn't I would never have got to do that any other way and it's great for
55:10
him cuz he made a bunch of money there's there's like 10 of us there sat around
55:13
just chatting with him he's like oh what do you want to know oh how do you do
55:17
this [ __ ] insane solo and then he does it it's like well I can't do it but
55:20
just let me watch you do it again yeah CU that was cool [ __ ] that's
55:25
great great that that is good like that's that's cool but it's also a
55:30
little scary that people in a [ __ ] successful touring band also are still
55:35
music teachers to do that well that's the thing yeah that's it's sobering if
55:39
you're interested in that kind of thing I recommend you check out uh it's called
55:42
um the Jer show it's Jamie Jer if you don't like ha breed I mean that's fine
55:47
but it I think the show is worth it anyway because he talks to like he talks
55:51
to Dino from Fear Factory for example you know like Fear Factory was a big
55:55
metal band in the '90s right and they're you know they're struggling now and it's
55:59
just it's just very it's interesting man as a musician you pretty much have to
56:03
just try to make as much money as possible and get it into some good stock
56:09
you know yeah and he says like every podcast they talk about stuff and then
56:13
at at one point Jamie says all right so I know people feel like maybe I'm I'm
56:17
bringing this up too much but I really just want to talk to like talk to you
56:20
about the business and stuff and like how you're bringing in the money and he
56:24
said and people have said to him oh it seems like you're all about the money
56:26
like yeah no people [ __ ] need to think about this [ __ ]
56:29
like people think that we're up here just you know riding around in limos and
56:34
smoking cigars and you know it's like I want people to know it's not like that
56:38
yeah yeah it's not like that anymore no
56:42
it was yeah yeah it's not
56:47
anymore yeah but I AG great a lot of artists made far far far too much money
56:52
for what they had to do yeah yeah like work six weeks a year make $40 million
56:58
oh the other thing actually I mean maybe this is too much music industry talk but
57:03
I I'll try and keep this brief but you know there's a lot of stuff on the
57:05
internet now about how stuff like Spotify and and all those streaming
57:09
services are ripping off the artists
57:11
yeah but I think you'll find that it's
57:17
artists that are on a big label right because what happens is the the label
57:23
gets less money and therefore the artist get it's like no money mhm whereas if it
57:28
was just artist directly with Spotify like in my case I've got some albums on
57:33
Spotify right yeah and I mean I'm not making a fortune but I'm making more
57:36
than nothing and and there are bands like if you're a if your band's doing
57:41
well you can make money on there the way it works isn't thing that you just get paid on a
57:47
certain amount of listens yeah and there is a weird
57:50
there's a weirdness that that people are complaining about too where the money
57:55
the royalty money for SP ify goes into a
57:56
big pool and gets distributed based on
58:02
various things but it's well because a subscription base it's hard to tell what
58:05
people are actually paying for right yeah and there's a discrepancy between
58:12
um the quality of a listen as well
58:16
apparently so um you know like if you if you go on there if someone listens to
58:22
your um if you put out an new say right so you got one song on there right and
58:27
and and a million people listen to that song yep or one person listens to it a
58:33
million times yeah those are not equal yeah yeah and then so it's Unique plays
58:39
sort of apparently there's some algorithm behind it and it's a bit
58:43
controversial okay well I can understand it cuz you if you got paid off the one
58:47
person you just get your friendship can you please playing this song and repeat
58:51
for me over there so I can make money so I can understand it being a unique play
58:56
type of thing because the argument is if a million different people are all
58:59
listening to it that's you should be getting more for that than one person
59:04
just listening to it on repeat so and then I don't know it's a bit it's all
59:07
bit weird so well no I can see that because a million people are paying for
59:13
a subscription so that's they've got a million people paying them the $10 a
59:17
month to come and use their service so that's why they would pay a million
59:20
dollars worth of listeners but if one person's doing it Spotify is only making
59:25
like $10 a month so yeah that doesn't work yeah yeah yeah okay that's fair
59:30
point but but again the main thing I was going to say is just remember when you
59:32
when you read a lot of stuff about you know artists saying they don't they only
59:36
get like 0.00001 Cent from a play on Spotify I think generally you'll find
59:42
that's an artist who's on a big label and the reason they're getting that much
59:45
is lab's taking the label's taking it and also it gets distributed between
59:48
songwriters and and all this kind of [ __ ] and there's a lot of behind the
59:51
scenes stuff that an independent artist doesn't have to worry about and so when
59:56
somebody like Lady Gaga complains that she's not getting paid enough that's not
1:00:01
the same as as a struggling independent artist the the struggling independent
1:00:06
artist is better off under the new model than someone like Lady Gaga and I think
1:00:10
that's probably a good thing yeah personally personally so consider that
1:00:15
[ __ ] consider that so who he is an Assassin's Creed fan H can't say I'm a
1:00:21
fan so just me then yeah it's just you I me I've played some I like the first one
1:00:25
I've played I like the first one okay was Syndicate all right Syndicate was
1:00:30
actually quite good that was really a return to form for them after the last
1:00:33
couple okay that's the only one I'm really interested in playing no
1:00:37
definitely give that one a play okay I downloaded the China Chronicles oh yeah
1:00:41
play it a bit I really like those Chronicles those the Sid scrolling
1:00:47
platformer yeah yeah I'm more I'm probably more interested in that than
1:00:51
it's all about time frame too I mean I remember the when they had the Victorian
1:00:56
one you know Matt was pretty psyched about that I don't know maybe if they do
1:01:00
like [ __ ] I don't know Colonial Singapore maybe I'll get that
1:01:05
one well they we w't know cuz they're taking this year off okay to work on the
1:01:10
colonial Singapore that's great um the rumor is they're working on
1:01:14
the Egypt one oh okay right Egypt could be
1:01:19
cool yeah I mean if they said they're taking the year off I mean that that's
1:01:24
obviously just from um mainstream ones also they're not taking
1:01:28
the year off they're they're just not releasing any yeah they're not releasing
1:01:31
they're just not working for a year knock yourself out uh they've Chronicles
1:01:35
India came out this year so and Russia came out this week as well yeah so they
1:01:40
I mean that I think they just mean the main you yeah yeah their main Assassin's
1:01:45
Creed title that comes out every year that's not happening um and what they
1:01:49
said is they are going to try and spend more time once the game is finished
1:01:55
making sure it's actually finished yeah they're going back to Unity on that one which was
1:02:01
terrible when it came out and before they even fix it they announced a new
1:02:05
game was coming out I might have to get Chic India actually this looks pretty
1:02:09
good I don't know I just like seeing I haven't played foreign places do you
1:02:13
play a character called sanjed McCurry yeah I assume you do no well I don't
1:02:18
actually forget who you play also just to be clarified that's I'm not just
1:02:22
generically being racist there that's a that's a it's an in joke if you're a new
1:02:25
listener I apologize that's a that's just joke from ever apologize for our
1:02:29
jokes man okay sorry I'm sorry for explaining a joke these Assassin's Creed
1:02:35
uh s scrollers remind me quite a lot of the old Prince of Persia games which I
1:02:39
love which I I [ __ ] adored those they're one of the first games I
1:02:43
remember playing yeah right Prince of Persia I remember having the loading up the old
1:02:49
amrad yeah putting in the discs and did you have that operating system where you
1:02:53
had to type run and then the um
1:02:56
quotation marks and then write dis to
1:03:00
play a disc yeah pretty much that's why kids these days are soft [ __ ] yeah
1:03:07
you just put it in it plays you don't have enough to put anything in now yeah
1:03:10
know that's right oh have have you heard about this internet is upset of course
1:03:16
it is there's an Xbox One game coming out Quantum break yeah mhm and it's a
1:03:21
Microsoft exclusive okay well everyone believed it was an XBox One exclusive
1:03:25
but Microsoft will comeing out and gone hey guys we got some pre-order bonuses
1:03:29
for you you pre-order it we'll give you the old Allen weight game we'll give you
1:03:33
spinoff for that um also if you buy it on the Xbox One you get it on the
1:03:37
Windows 10 for free MH mhm Microsoft that's fair that's still a Microsoft
1:03:43
exclusive as far as I'm concerned yep no people no you're
1:03:48
destroy you're getting rid of Xbox because of this you just want to focus
1:03:51
on PC now and you're lied to us and well hold on hold on cuz I read this article
1:03:57
and I'm actually confused right and I guess this goes back to what my mom used
1:04:02
to say when like my brother had a lollipop and I didn't or whatever and
1:04:05
she used to tell me just because he has something you don't have doesn't mean
1:04:10
you're any worse off than you were before you noticed he had it
1:04:14
right so I don't quite understand I mean these people it's not like they cannot
1:04:20
play it on Xbox one right no yeah and it's not like they have to wait to play
1:04:25
play it or anything like that it's just that PC players will also be able to
1:04:30
play it at the same time and if you actually go back to the whole console
1:04:34
war thing it's not Microsoft versus Sony
1:04:38
and PC it's Microsoft versus Sony Nintendo yeah so this being a Microsoft
1:04:44
exclusive for them to release it on the Xbox and PC that's still an exclusive in my books
1:04:51
yeah yeah correct [ __ ] off shut up but actually I don't know if you read the article but
1:04:57
I actually went and read more about this crap gamer guy oh right the guy who's
1:05:02
been complaining loudest yeah and the one that Phil Spencer actually responded
1:05:06
to and he's also it was not nice the way Phil Spencer responded to me making out
1:05:10
like I was the villain here and they were missing the point I was just upset
1:05:15
cuz Microsoft lied to us and it's what was the LIE what was the lie crimey that
1:05:22
it was an XBox One exclusive but now it's coming out on Windows right who
1:05:28
cares even if it was an exclusive you still get to play it yes so strange that
1:05:34
like people give a [ __ ] about that kind of thing it's pett very Petty actually
1:05:39
you should be happy if you're someone like me and cuz a lot of times the Xbox
1:05:43
version and the windows version have different achievements yeah they be
1:05:46
getting paying once for the game and getting two sets of achievements it's
1:05:49
great but that's just me how are you going in your competition by the way oh
