1:08
soft drink oh it's did Hannah tell you this or did the doctor tell you this the
1:12
dentist told me this is it because it's fizzy or is it because it's sugary
1:15
because you're drinking [ __ ] green coola flavored C I'm assuming because
1:21
it's fizzy what is coola I mean I know it's green I it's lime our American
1:26
listeners aren't even going to know what the [ __ ] I'm talking about it's just a
1:29
flavor of green stuff we have they have cordial thereare don't they we have no
1:35
no no I don't think so really I think they don't have cordial and they also don't have
1:41
cooler well they have coolers that you put your beer in but do you have
1:45
tang tang I don't think so it's a little bit like
1:50
Kool-Aid where you make a drink yeah
1:53
Koolaid flavored water Tang is Tang an Australian thing I I don't I don't even
1:59
know no I think Tang what the astronauts had I think it's an American thing oh
2:02
it's spy they have on moon yeah yeah yeah they have that up there on
2:08
America up here on our high horse yeah yeah we
2:15
do stop playing with my stitches oh Matt I wanted to ask you oh he's stitched up
2:21
too no no no we can we can keep talking about Luke's medical stuff for a bit
2:24
well you know how when you got something in your mouth and your tongue will just
2:28
automatically go to it yeah stitches and my tongue automatically
2:32
goes to the stit we can talk about Kevin spy later if you
2:37
want yeah maybe that's an Afterparty thing may maybe that's a good tease for
2:41
the Afterparty because I've actually got something to to add to that too have you
2:46
I do you got it story to add to the Kevin Spacey issue I'm interested I do I
2:51
do um something that I found out this week that I was not happy about so
2:56
listeners if you want to hear what I am not happy about this this week
3:02
um go to patreon.com mpasm and become a pat to talk about anything you're not
3:08
happy about in the main show yeah you have to love everything we talk about
3:13
now there's quite a few things that I'm quite happy about that we can talk about
3:16
this week there one or two things that I'm a bit mied about but Matt I was
3:20
listening to a podcast uh I guess most of the podcast I listen to a British or
3:25
American right so it's kind of 5050 chance it's going to be one or the other
3:29
this particular was American and they started talking about what we in
3:32
Australia call mandarins which what in Asia they just called oranges yeah they're
3:39
clementines so what do what do you call them in America where you are now Matt
3:45
uh I'm pretty sure they call them clementines because every time someone
3:48
says do you want a clementine I'm like that's a mandarin and yeah I do sure so
3:54
I think it it's probably Regional because you know America's bigger than
3:57
Europe so yeah changed but the podcast
4:02
that's yeah bigger and better and Freer way
4:07
Freer um is
4:10
from West Virginia and they calland
4:16
cuties cuties I've heard that that's never heard that before and I was like
4:21
oh cuties that's that's that Netflix series that was a bit controversial was
4:25
ban yeah right you say I love cuties oh I love
4:31
just peeling them backing it's sort of like
4:37
we the after party I said I'm only talking about stuff I like it's like
4:42
when we talk about little boys here oh God
4:47
no must be on something he's gone wild Frank small frankf forts I don't little
4:53
boyys you perve hang on a minute who calls them that that's what they called
4:58
no it's not that is a thing no it's not you boil up little Frank you know it's
5:03
little Frank crits I know what you're talking about you boil them up you
5:06
different me half siiz hot dogs yeah
5:09
they're little boys no police never you look on the packet and if it says little
5:15
boy send me a photo because I don't I don't believe you either and I think
5:20
anyone who does call them that needs to have a long hard look at their hard
5:25
drive little that's what they called in New South Wales and you know oh yeah all
5:31
right um speaking of podcasts I keep forgetting to mention this um we
5:36
listened to one the other week because we remember when True Crime podcasts
5:41
were kind of a big thing and then now they kind of all fizzled out right
5:44
there's not a whole lot of good in my we talked about all the crimes Matt that's
5:48
what I'm saying scraping the bottom of the barrel now yeah yeah so like you
5:52
know every time oh this one's pretty good I'm like H you know it's fine all
5:55
right I got one for you okay it's called who shed on on the floor at my wedding
6:01
ah yes what Hanah has listened to this
6:05
going right way better than I expected is that what it's called I think it's
6:11
called who shut on the floor at my wedding and it's um two two women who
6:17
were married in Amsterdam on a house boat on or sorry on a boat a party boat
6:21
and they somebody did a [ __ ] on the floor at the wedding and their friend
6:27
who's who's a kiwi so she's got funny kiwi accent which helps and she's very
6:32
funny comedy yeah um is the detective and they literally just interview people
6:38
who are at the wedding but just be clear she's not a detective
6:43
no no detective yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
6:49
uh they they cover that they cover her qualifications oh sure okay it
6:54
goes absurd multiple episodes yes they
6:57
bring in Specialists they got a forensic
7:03
I'm they submarine expert about submarines and I'm not even
7:08
gonna tell you what I don't [ __ ] hilarious and this guy was just like just
7:14
went so okay I'll take that recommendation it's good um what is
7:21
Project Hail Mary and why should I care
7:23
oh okay it's it's a book right by um
7:28
Andy weer the author of The Martian the Martian yeah and I bought this on
7:34
Audible or got it as part of my subscription ages ago just on the basis
7:38
that it was written by Andy we and I loved the Martian and Artemis Artemis was his second
7:44
book uh and I got it and I hadn't listened to it and I didn't know
7:48
anything about it really um and the other day I was mowing the lawn and I
7:53
didn't have a podcast to listen to so I put project Hail Mary on and it is
7:58
[ __ ] incredible right and I I didn't know like I said I
8:02
didn't know anything about it and I I I implore you to just read it or listen to
8:09
it whatever you want to do just you liked the Martian and that style one of
8:13
the complaints I've seen about this book is it's it's just the same character in
8:17
a different scenario I don't care that no that's fine I don't care and this is
8:22
the summary I'll give you this is actually I'm I'm quite happy with the
8:25
way that they summarize this on on the internet right because they don't tell
8:28
you too much H Mar is a 2021 science fiction novel by American novelist Andy
8:32
wear set in the near future It Centers on a junior high school teacher turned
8:36
astronaut Ryland Grace who wakes up from a coma Afflicted with amnesia that's all
8:42
you need to know okay purch I mean that yeah I'm me too so just I haven't
8:47
finished it but so far it's [ __ ] incredible great no I'll take that
8:53
recommendation for sure that sounds excellent whether or not I listen to it
8:57
it's a different thing but I do have it now no I'm looking for something to to
9:02
read listen to so that sounds good to me loving it I've just been listening to
9:07
Black Adder again uh I mean listening to Black Adder yeah I've got an AUD
9:12
watching oh right that's the thing about that show it's funny with even without
9:19
seeing literally just audio it's just episodes audio it's like when I was a
9:24
kid and I just used to tape a from the TV on set so I could listen to it in the
9:29
car I might have even done that with black add to be honest being very confused because it
9:34
was like some Daffy Duck sketch which is visual comedy yeah yeah but you're
9:38
laughing at all the all the know yeaha I know what he's doing and I'll be
9:42
laughing hysterically the car my dad was like something wrong with this [ __ ]
9:45
kid that's right but you just know it like you just and used all visual gag so
9:51
it works well I never used to have a VCR
9:54
or TV in my bedroom so God no like I I I
9:58
taped I tap Robin Hood prince of Thieves onto a cassette and then used to just
10:02
play it in my room so that I could just visualize the film I also had to edit it
10:06
down to 90 minutes because they were 90 minute tapes so I had to decide which
10:11
bits I didn't want I should do that with more movies
10:17
look speaking of audio I've got this here and I think I think I should drop
10:20
this in now so this is a bit of followup I'll just I I'll introduce it before we
10:26
listen to it um last week in the after party so if you're a regular listener
10:32
you would have missed out on this all the more reason to to get into the after
10:35
party we discussed how Sarah Silverman I should put the link in the thing anyway
10:40
get going oh yeah Sarah Silverman comedian is suing open AI yes yes
10:47
because they H she she feels uh that
10:50
they have included her comedy material in their algorithm lets you you know
10:56
lets you you could theoretically generate your own Sarah Silverman comedy
11:00
routine MH yeah so I did right so I went
11:05
to chat GPT and I said write me a comedy routine in the style of Sarah Silverman
11:10
about having your material stolen by open Ai and
11:15
instantly instantly as if it had already had it
11:19
prepared spat out what I would call comedy gold and so I then took that
11:26
trans called the intellectual
11:29
yeah so then then I took that one step further just to piss Sarah Silverman
11:35
right off and took it to 11 labs and got a text to voice sample to actually
11:42
perform said comedy routine could be the episode we finally get sued I can't
11:47
right yeah I would look I also planned to put like a laugh track in this and um
11:52
I just I just couldn't be asked so right you decide if it's funny we'll
11:58
laugh here we go all right everybody so let me tell you about this wild thing
12:04
that happened to me the other day I found out that AI has been stealing my
12:08
work can you believe it like I thought I was the one stealing jokes but now
12:13
they're stealing from me it's like a comedy Inception I mean at first I
12:17
didn't know what to make of it I thought I was just having a senior moment where
12:21
I forgot my own jokes but then it hit me these sneaky algorithms are like those
12:26
little kids who copy their big sister's homework but let's set some ground rules
12:30
here AI you can have my jokes but hands off my Twitter account I don't want to
12:34
wake up to some robot tweeting about its love for unicorn shaped waffles hey
12:40
everybody so let me tell you about this wild thing that happened to me the other
12:46
day see I also think they're also taking a bit of a dig at her with that as well
12:51
so she steals her jokes like that's a it's like he's just sneaking in a little
12:57
thing like yeah that's right yeah we think you think you're stealing
13:02
from us we yeah that's
13:05
uh I got say that's not only amazing that Chad G GPT wrote that but that's
13:11
pretty convincing Sarah Silverman yeah that's terrifying to be
13:15
clear what I did was I took one of her standups I edited out the laugh track so
13:20
it was just her voice I input it into 11
13:23
labs and then it went sinking and then everything everything I type now
13:29
it sounds like Sarah Silverman I don't like it I really don't like it what are
13:34
you wait what are you making a say Dan well actually I've made her say some
13:39
other stuff for sure but uh I was gonna say there's not a lot you can make a say
13:42
she didn't say already on a part of the show
13:46
so pretty edgy back in the
13:50
day yeah but you could look yeah I still don't I thought I don't like where this
13:55
is going this is why I think the rer strike this there's a reason why we've
13:58
got the rer strike in the act strike at the moment cuz of
14:02
Dan Dan um I should have one Luke I'm
14:08
popping one in it's a very too going too far and then I've encouraged him now I'm
14:12
sorry yeah no no because I thought look maybe you would think this is not Sarah
14:17
Silverman enough right so I I also just got her to say some stuff that I thought
14:22
maybe sounded a bit more like her
14:26
okay oh I'm nervous about this all right hold give me two seconds I've
14:32
got the file I'm just saving it and then I'll upload
14:37
it all right while you're doing that I just want to say our video first video
14:43
podcast last week seems to have been a success if you like it let us know you
14:46
can now watch the show on YouTube and you're probably watching this right now
14:49
if you're if you're seeing it Some people prefer to make eye contact with us while we do
14:55
it while we do the podcast yeah yeah yeah never look me in the eyes while we're doing
15:02
it thanks how would I do that from behind oh preent you wait till you hear
15:07
this clip all right here we go hi I'm Sarah Silverman and I lost my anal
15:13
virginity to a chimpanzee at least he said he was a chimpanzee and he did it
15:17
with a banana so far as I know I mean I was facing the other way at the time hi I'm
15:25
Sarah so to be clear that's not chat gbt that's just me all her Cs and then writing
15:31
I other type of plagiarism
15:36
yeah that's terrifying scary world so that's just this is just a
15:42
freeze thing this isn't like anything 11 Labs isn't free the the the text of
15:48
voice one I pay for I have subscription how much does Sarah s get of that how
15:54
much cost don't need to know mate all right
15:59
next week Dan you need to get to to Contra oh no wait she's on strike
16:03
probably all right you're off the hook but once the strik over we need to pay
16:07
sir Silman to say that exact same thing and just see is yeah just and then weigh
16:12
up the costs yeah and then let Bob Iger know yeah yeah yeah look a bit of
16:17
followup to the um Rider strike um do you gu know that par Universal sent out
16:24
someone to [ __ ] trim all the trees back they were the protesters were
16:27
standing under for shade in the hot California Sun oh look they said they
16:33
were they said that was scheduled for trimming anyway yes pretty funny it's
16:37
just it just was weird that happened at the same time but then
16:41
also [ __ ] kidding I don't think I honestly don't think that that they
16:45
would do that on purpose to I don't know it seems pretty insane I
16:51
know either I don't know either way but you got like more celebrities are
16:54
joining which is amazing like davidy was out there the other day you see
17:00
residuals are out there that's good I like that and I've
17:04
been hearing some other stuff like people are saying like that someone's
17:07
talking about the res residual she got from being appearing on Orange's new
17:12
black oh yeah it was like 27 bucks and people going but you got paid
17:18
a lot up front for doing it and she's no I was unknown when I started doing this
17:23
I was getting 900 bucks a day still working another job I didn't have like you don't that
17:29
name at the start of your cre you get that yeah people think oh it's a lot of
17:32
money but you don't work every day it's not a normal job no do you work and then
17:37
it's like you get nothing for like yeah there's about 12 actors in the world
17:42
that make their full living just by acting yes and I I'll say those like The
17:49
Rock's just got announced he's going to be getting oh yeah they're rolling in it
17:54
Heche people think that everyone gets these milli the strike all these rich
18:00
celebrities go on St no it's not I mean them too but not most of them have F
18:05
make [ __ ] all mate yeah yeah they'll go they'll go film and then they'll go do
18:10
bartending shift even though they might their show might might be working act on
18:14
their show on television until yeah you get to a certain degree yes they yeah so
18:20
some some make too much money and I think that needs to
18:24
stop yeah I mean there's salary caps in in sports and for that reason too but uh
18:31
but you're right and and also if you're an actor and you're not currently
18:33
working you're broke like yes you have no income the the Australian
18:39
entertainment industry is different anyway but like big name Australian
18:43
actors work at David Jones on the weekends yeah like if if you're not
18:47
watching them in a show right now they've got a job a real FS too like
18:52
well particularly the bands I like like metal bands yeah any money
18:57
off in a metal band if you think you're going to get rich and famous being in a
19:01
in a a band a metal band in particular you're [ __ ]
19:06
dreaming yes there is there is like the again three in the 1% that those metal
19:11
bit like Metallica and stuff like that who are living the life but 99% of the
19:16
others no bands that you'd be surprised I can and Machine Head Right you know
19:21
who Machine Head are everybody knows who Machine Head they're [ __ ] enormous
19:23
metal band and the the leag guitarist works as a mechanic because he doesn't
19:29
make enough money being in a big [ __ ] metal band like Machine Head yeah and if
19:33
they can't make enough money you can't that's the
19:39
exactly yeah and yeah and so what they're striking to get better pay and
19:43
also they don't want their stuff to be sort of automated essentially and but
19:48
their work used to teach the robot to replace them
19:56
yeah today yeah yeah mhm that's a
20:00
shame is why I was on record like I don't like
20:04
it well we we'll both but also this is I also think also is a little bit
20:11
different we don't make money on this podcast we're not making money from this
20:15
TR we got nothing no I've tried to make both of you and I've even Googled how to
20:20
make 11 Labs sound Orr sound like Matt Luke yeah yeah the funny thing is it
20:27
does sound like you it just sounds like you're putting on an American accent I
20:31
made both of you say the chimpanzee sketch as well yeah just you'll never be
20:35
able to digitize my voice never happen exact clip to
20:40
digitize your voice does have a very unique voice I must say yeah do you know
20:45
what the funny thing is it does some accents just not others doesn't do
20:48
Australian does British Matt it assumes you're American so it makes you sound
20:52
American sounds like a cockney yeah I've been here too long now
20:57
people here say you don't it's like when it comes up it doesn't come up
21:02
that often but when someone says oh I just adct B an accent and I I go yeah
21:06
I'm Australian like oh you don't sound Australian and I'm like like what did
21:10
you think I was then I am yeah
21:15
yeah Belgian accent like I don't know what to say to that like yeah no because
21:21
they think all Australian sound like Russell Crow yeah or Steven mate yeah um
21:26
my neighbor said to me recently can you like put on an Australian accent and I
21:30
said don't I have one and he was like no
21:34
you don't I like okay I was bored here and lived here all my life so this
21:40
American but but and he's like and then I and I was like you mean like go M how
21:44
I go and he's like no that's no good see I do have a habit of I
21:50
will accidentally not like like lean into the accent of a person I'm talking
21:54
to a little bit sure like I know that I do that so when Americans here I'm
21:59
almost certainly leaning into an American accent a bit picking up their
22:03
Cadence a bit well you've kind of got to in order to be understood I I did that
22:07
in Asia as well and I and before you start sounding saying that sounds racist
22:12
I don't I don't mean it like that I mean you just lose the Nuance of your own
22:16
accent for the benefit of other people after get in Scotland I'd sort of repeat
22:19
something back and I'd pick up and but has we sandwich England England and
22:26
American in particular I think right because I've been here a lot and in England
22:29
you know my parents both British and you know that's so when I'm over there I'm I
22:34
I definitely lean into a British my [ __ ] dad when we went over to England
22:37
the first time with my dad I couldn't understand what he was saying once we
22:40
got there he surrounded by other people from [ __ ] Manchester he was like your
22:45
dad's got a very Manchester accent to
22:48
begin with not to me calls me
22:52
out and I was like [ __ ] are you saying when we have like a trade or
22:58
someone come over to like do some work on the house Hannah always calls me out
23:01
because I'll become more Bogen when I'm talking to them yeah I used to do that
23:05
too yeah well I work when I worked at the carpet place back many many years
23:09
ago and they were all like you know Blue Collar blue yeah Aussie tradies I'll be
23:14
like [ __ ] you G man yeah yeah y yeah d right May with a
23:20
forklift God that's that's a story for the after

23:41

23:48
watching the movie after I got back from the dentist so I was a little still Spacey
23:54

24:00
spaced out yeah I was molesting Anthony
24:06
rap but yeah so I don't really know much
24:10
of the movie except from who's Batman now okay we can explain that too and
24:16
actually I think you've you've taken aboard a little too much of what you did
24:21

24:26

24:36

having a [ __ ] woman in a movie no no no no if you the one thing you're
25:26
picking apart this movie is cuz there's a girl playing Super I promise you I had
25:29
no issues with her i' rather look at her than Henry
25:33
keville to be honest but like I'd like them both to be honest yeah oh my God
25:39
have you seen the interviews popping up now with Henry Cavell because of the
25:42
Witcher and whatnot and there's that one of him it's all the cast of The Witcher
25:47
and he oh it's with Felicia Day actually Luke you'd like it oh I my go well find
25:51
that then it's like some some nerd show and she goes oh what's your nerdy secret
25:54
and like it's not really a secret but I love Warhammer 40
25:59
and then the guy plays yasier goes oh yeah I was meaning to tell you I'm
26:02
thinking of for my next Army I might might start a necron army and then Cav's
26:06
like okay okay yes and then he gets and
26:11
stuff and I was like dude's [ __ ] cool that's right and I also like that he
26:15
plays it too that like that's great yeah and you can see the two girls going
26:20
rolling their eyes yeah no I did see that CLI is not your thing but I guess
26:25
when when the the battle with Zod started
26:29
I kind of crossy I I must say that that was a much smaller part of the movie
26:36
than the trailer made me believe sure but it very like they're in the
26:43
middle of a desert there's nothing around and it's just like people green screen
26:49
onto very like boring I'm hoping you can maybe explain something to me because I
26:53
did sleep through a lot of movie he went back in time to save his mother correct
26:59
how does that change Batman's and Supermans and stuff
27:03
when they were really there before explains that in a pivotal scene
27:09
with spaghetti with spaghetti yeah he accidentally created a Multiverse yeah
27:14
so when you go back and change something and I thought it's quite cool it's a
27:18
different kind of take on it is that when you change something it doesn't
27:21
just change the future it it pivots the timeline and the past is Divergent as
27:27
well okay okay and that there are inevitable crossovers but those are essentially
27:34
coincidences um you know you're going to get spaghetti and a bowl that crosses
27:38
over each other so there are going to be you know a good scene yeah it's
27:43
excellent he's like you've both got alfreds they're just not the same that's
27:47
to be expected he was fantastic in this and like a lot of what he did was just
27:52
say lines from the old movie which is absolutely fine but actually let's get
27:57
nuts let's get nuts he was uh just even before they leaned into the Batman stuff
28:04
when he was just like a old reclusive Bruce Wayne character he was great at
28:10
that too I really I really thought that was good he was good in
28:15
this in this whole movie was well if you won't help us we'll just use his bat
28:19
[ __ ] bat [ __ ] bat [ __ ] stff yeah yeah
28:24
okay so made me laugh out loud I don't forgive Ezra Miller for their crimes
28:30
however good however I watch this movie now I'm like yeah it's fine but like
28:35
come on you good at playing the two lead
28:40
roles not even one lead role he is playing two roles against himself very
28:45
good I thought he he did a great job sure still needs answer for his crimes
28:51
yeah he's not going to win an Academy Award no no and he's not going to be in
28:56
the sequel you know what I mean like and they don't need to do not going to be
29:00
one right well yes and so that's what I was going to say so Luke what's the one
29:05
thing you took away from this movie George Clooney's
29:10
Batman yeah so that was a
29:13
re-shoot oh was it yes so the the whole the gag at the end is he's come back to
29:20
the present he he he fixed the past so that the present happens the way it more
29:25
or less did but he still changed one thing to benefit him but that of course
29:30
had a knock on effect a butterfly effect and Bruce Wayne pulls up and he gets out
29:37
and it's George Clooney haha it's a gag you will not see him in the next movie
29:42
no he's not in that's just that's a joke right it was going to be
29:48
that uh Michael Keaton gets out of the cup right but he's expecting to see Ben
29:54
Affleck I thought was gonna be actually because and he's like holy [ __ ] and then
30:00
Michael Keaton was going to be the Nick Fury character to link all the DC EU
30:07
films going forward including Batgirl which apparently is the reason they
30:13
scrapped Batgirl is because they're not doing that continuity anymore but all
30:18
through it is Michael Keaton teaching her to be Batgirl so Michael Keon was in
30:23
Batgirl I want to see Batgirl even more now it doesn't exist it doesn't exist
30:29
but that's why is because they they're scrapping it
30:32
all that's such a bummer yeah yeah it did make me
30:37
think so it does seem like the timelines you know when you when you change the
30:42
past it changes everything but the only people who are going to be different are
30:46
the people who've been portrayed by different actors in other
30:50
movies everybody else in the world will be the same
30:53
like in fact they made a joke that they recast Billy crup as his dad because
30:59
Billy crup played his dad in the Batman v Superman not Batman v the Justice
31:04
League huh I didn't even remember he goes and visits him in
31:09
jail oh and it's Billy crup huh yeah you're
31:13
right well yeah I just thought it was funny that it's always it's Batman or
31:18
Superman or [ __ ] one of the main characters used they were going to use this movie
31:25
to completely reset their Universe and everything was going to off
31:30
of this they're not going to do that now then James let's just be blatant about
31:34
it yeah this because this was their way to basically recast um Affleck as Batman
31:41
and things like that was their flash point their reset yeah it was exactly
31:45
doing what flash point did to com that he ever got to be was this
31:50
movie and he said this is one he really liked playing him he says I think I
31:55
finally found my found my footing with Batman it was good just and now you
32:01
fired oh one thing I want to mention too was the
32:05
um people were complaining about the the CGI of the I thought it was when he was
32:11
running and I was at first but I think it's when I think it's when he gets into
32:16
the time travel stuff and you see the people the people look weird they're all
32:21
CGI generated people cartoony almost yeah is that what people meant yes y
32:26
evidently that is yeah choice because it made it weird then
32:31
that there were all those cameos because they all looked a bit [ __ ] but like is
32:35
that why they did it is that intentional because they couldn't ium like assume
32:39
that's why I assume they're not going to make that look realistic so they' make
32:42
it look stylized instead and make it a style Choice yeah that's interesting
32:47
well claim it's a stylistic choice when technically it's just a red red con it
32:51
as a style Choice yeah yeah yeah yeah interesting oh it was intentional
32:55
because we couldn't make Christopher re yeah
32:59
um I did like the Nicholas Cage super I didn't see they lent into that a bit too
33:05
much i' watched that movie I thought literally Nicholas Cage was gonna show
33:08
up and help or something at some point and then I was disappointed with what it
33:11
was because it wasn't also he still exists why are we using a CGI ni cave
33:17
yeah well not only that there's a whole bunch of [ __ ] actors and actresses
33:21
who have portrayed these characters who are still alive today and could have
33:24
shown up could have brought in yes and they didn't they just chose including a
33:28
not it shows a bunch of dead people that like kids don't even know who they are
33:32
yeah like who knows that Nicholas Cage was supposed to play Superman apart from
33:37
us like people like us our age who who knew about it like yeah if you're it's
33:42
almost like they put that joke in there just for Kevin Smith it's like if you're a kid who
33:47
watches these CW shows or whatever and you go see it you're like [ __ ] whatas
33:52
cage but then they didn't even try with um uh
33:58
not Bert Ward who am I trying to say oh Adam West ad West West I so surprised
34:05
paper cut out yeah quick shot quick quick cut yeah he didn't even move they
34:09
didn't even like it wasn't a CGI it was just a picture of him yeah that could
34:12
have that would have been CGI Nicholas
34:17
Cage they like still because we own the still or something I don't know maybe
34:21
something and I I I think it was actually unnecessary I didn't mind it
34:25
but it wasn't it wasn't necessary to tell the story other than to Jus that
34:30
scene's appar gonna be viral now for people pooping it because it's it's not
34:35
as bad as that I it's not my favorite part of the movie what is next now
34:40
though because they ended on that joke but what's no nothing that continuity is
34:45
over now we're done the Blue Beetle comes out stting completely new
34:51
continuing on yeah which is a [ __ ] weird thing BL Beetle that's half done
34:56
though I believe right that's not a James Garden written or anything but
35:00
that that's going to be a new starting off their new universe Blue Beetle a
35:04
character that no one knows out and I couldn't even make it through this trailer boring as
35:10
[ __ ] Ro well what is the Blue Beetle don't
35:15
know it's something that takes over a host and it picks this kid and turns
35:20
them into the Blue Beetle oh one other thing that bugged me in the flash him
35:25
recreating so yes he got his powers in a certain way right the fact that they can kind
35:32
of halfast give him powers like why then they didn't anyway because then Super
35:38
Go's like I'll just give you your powers I'm like sorry power you have to just
35:42
flew him up to get hit by lightning which when he already chemical just any
35:47
electricity makes him power like that's yeah that's what I mean it was all very
35:50
comp like I thought there was a specific scenario that happened to that person
35:54
that caused that one off one in a million event but like no
35:58
just [ __ ] no no but you got to have chemicals nearby it was like well hold
36:01
on like yeah it's agree it was very convenient that that happened I didn't I
36:07
mean I can go with it because the tone of the film was light so it's fine yeah
36:12
Luke were you awake enough to see the second Barry Allen uh Flash costume is
36:18
just an old Batman costume spray painted red with the ears cut off yes that was
36:22
pretty good also the scene at the start with the babies was [ __ ] hilarious
36:27
people are also [ __ ] on that CU it I mean the C terrible well what are you
36:31
supposed to do use real babies you know I I don't care it was
36:37
funny sequence that I was like yeah okay the babies look stupid but that's fine
36:41
yeah put one in a microwave in the microwave yeah shot
36:47
where he's looking around and one baby's got [ __ ] knives flying at
36:53
it I need to go see that part scenario oh look is the best scene in the movie
36:58
and yes it look it looks silly but here's the thing inre ridiculous that's
37:02
what movies look like now like if if you had to sum up what movies in 2023 look
37:07
like they look like video games from 2011 you know like that's just what
37:11
movies like it really does feel like the the CGI in Moose is taking a step back
37:15
and it's gotten better in TV shows now we talked I think we talked about
37:20
this with Ant-Man uh apparently the CG on Ant-Man quantor Mania is a bit [ __ ]
37:25
but that was because they spent they took all the resources off it on put
37:29
them on um or kind of forever and they never got enough time to finish it so
37:34
the reason that movie apparently haven't seen it looks a bit [ __ ] is because of
37:37
that I have no desire to see either that or walk under forever so I don't care
37:42
about any of the Marvel movies I've seen them all they're on Disney Plus have you
37:45
watched secret Invasion Luke not yet
37:48
yeah no Nei NE I want I want Loki I want Loki season 2 already I feel like it
37:55
feels to me like I know it's different because you know we've talked about this
37:59
like there was end game and all that kind of stuff and it ended but to me it
38:02
feels like I had a kid and I just don't care anymore yeah yeah yeah like there's
38:07
more to it but that's what it that was the cut off basically I watched the end
38:11
game and then I had a baby and I was like I'm done with this [ __ ] oh I
38:16
thought you meant that the Marvel the Marvel films were your child and now
38:20
they've grown up and you barely what I mean is yeah just the timing was like
38:26
line finished that story line and then now I have a daughter and I just don't have
38:31
time for it so well did sort of work out well because now you don't have time
38:35
movies the movies there you yeah the movies haven't really been as good as
38:41
they were leading up to that they sort of did drop off like there's been good
38:44
ones like Guardians I enjoyed but there's still been lacking there's Watch
38:49
Guardians 3 no I still haven't either I gotta watch that I think saw spoil
38:54
because I was stupid enough to watch James gun on the um inside of you
38:58
podcast and I know so I know some things that happen because oh sure yeah they
39:03
not really spoiler heavy movies though are they like there's no shamalan twists
39:07
or there iess don't tell me because I don't know there's one quite thing I
39:11
quite like that they did in that movie but I'm not allowed to say no what
39:17
they did for Lloyd kman is disturbing there's one storyline that I
39:22
actually quite like in how they played that off does it Evol camora it
39:29
may oh see so now's a video podcast so you're gonna have to get kamur out again
39:34
oh yeah while you're getting out know where she oh she's right there oh she's
39:38
right there what is she in the little she came in it's it's one of those bags
39:44
you put in the washing machine so you can
39:51
wash here we go Kamar yeah finger
39:55
it that is no don't we're gonna get we get we get banned YouTube is not gonna
40:01
like that YouTube not get in a pool get in a pool I actually wondered I was so I
40:05
watched the premiere of a video live
40:08
last week and I was with new eyes listening to eyes that doesn't make any
40:14
sense but um I was like I wonder if YouTube is gonna allow
40:21
this yeah no I'll keep this online for that I watch a lot of stuff and I see
40:25
stuff get senses and stuff stuff and we're we're okay a lot of stuff doesn't
40:29
people don't even swear on YouTube our old stuff wouldn't fly we swear a lot
40:33
yeah but we don't try to monetize people don't swear because they don't want to
40:36
demonetize oh okay not not because YouTube don't allow it okay that's fair
40:43
so can swear on YouTube you got no hope of that so never mind oh we might you never
40:47
know well you can't show the camora no that might get us
40:52
monetized I want to quickly mention three films that I watched this week uh
40:57
three films and they have the mission Impossibles one through three and I will
41:02
watch I will watch four through six for next week I just can't now the Jenner down to
41:09
it well I don't force anyone to watch them with me that's the trick your own
41:14
time um I assumed my wife would want to watch this and I'm like Mission it
41:18
possible she's like on your own I'm like okay sure um mission impossible one I'm
41:23
just going to give a really quick wrap up mission impossible one one of the
41:26
best ESP movies ever made and was made to be a standalone movie wasn't it it
41:31
was just a yes and it very much is as well like it's
41:35
not it's just a great a Great Adventure
41:40
spy movie it's it's so good number two
41:44
is [ __ ] garbage now if you have Nostalgia for this movie probably like
41:50
it but it is style over substance for a
41:54
style that did not age well yeah John it takes itself so seriously someone goes
42:00
to pick up a pen and they do it in slow motion it it's it's there's nothing to
42:04
it's John Woo be the slow motion doves yeah yeah but here's the thing like I
42:10
was over John Woo doing that before he did it for this do you know what I mean
42:14
like his last couple of Chinese movies I was like come on like I feel like Face
42:19
Off is the quintessential John wo movie yes yeah but face off doesn't take
42:24
itself seriously it it leans into the this does it like you're supposed to go
42:29
[ __ ] yeah white does like it's it's not good number three is an absolute
42:35
return to form JJ Abrams brings it home um and and clearly I'm not the only one
42:41
who didn't like mission impossible to because you know when there's a a 180
42:45
degree turn to the next one it's because they went we can't make another one of
42:50
them but the funniest thing about these movies is watching what they think is
42:56
the best technology at the time be used sure um so in the first one no one even
43:01
has cell phones no one yeah in the second one cell that long ago part of
43:08
the yeah mid90s cell phones weren't a thing right oh yeah because we watching
43:12
episode of Angel the other day and uh they were making phone calls leaving
43:16
voicemails and I was like remember that yeah that was quite nice the funniest
43:22
thing though so mid90s like the internet is very very new at this point right H
43:28
so there's a scene where Tom Cruz is he's gone Rogue cuz he I think he goes
43:34
Rogue in every single one you should not trust this guy thing it's like can you
43:40
do the mission and can you promise me
43:44
you that's what he does mate this is on you if you've hired Ethan for this
43:48
because we know he goes Rogue but all the handlers are [ __ ] corrupt too so
43:52
I mean can you blame him anyway he has learned has learned that there is a spy
43:58
called Max that's all he knows right spy
44:03
Max called Max right so there's an extended Montage of him trying to track
44:09
down this spy using the technology at the time which was this emerging thing
44:13
called the internet right he opens up Netscape and ppes
44:19
in internet
44:23
right that's good which brings up another prompt into which he types now I'll just remind
44:29
you what he's searching for a
44:33
spy he types in max.com
44:39
in assuming I guess that there's only one spy called
44:49
Max you need let's go to max.com that's
44:55
right then and that brings up nothing right doesn't exist nothing's there that
45:00
that's not even a website yet it's so early days no one named no way there's
45:05
nothing there he then thinks maybe he looks into his bookcase and sees the
45:10
Holy Bible right sitting there on his bookshelf and thinks maybe there's a
45:15
clue in the Bible so he then types in the word bible right and it comes up and
45:22
I I want to be absolutely uses the internet
45:28
PL plumber.com I had a plumber nam I just typing
45:33
jeff.com and hopefully I'll see it um I want to get this exactly
45:39
right he then types in I've lost it he types in Bible and it
45:45
comes up 250 results 250 and he goes oh
45:52
like give up I'll never find it there are 250
46:00
I've been trying to find actually yeah I'll I'll mention that after this you're
46:05
trying to find what the Bible trying to find a movie yeah but no I didn't mean
46:09
to interrupt no that's that's how you use the internet in find Max on the
46:14
internet oh do you want to know how he
46:17
finds okay he goes to he go 1996 yeah
46:22
Mission po 3 came out in 1996 no no that's the first this is one this is the
46:26
first the first one okay okay yeah no number three is like 2004 something like
46:31
that I was gonna say that's one the first one was s Peg right the third one
46:34
third one Simon Peg yeah yeah yeah yeah okay all right
46:38
yeah the first that number three is since they've started making them Jason
46:44
Bourne has come out and the new Bond has come out so they're basically riffing on
46:50
both of them yeah they didn't in the original if you search for the Bible now
46:55
you get one 0. five billion results okay so how he finds it is that he actually
47:02
writes to each of these 256 web pages
47:06
you're kidding and says I'm such looking
47:09
for Max max.com is HBO Max of course it
47:14
is I've actually been looking at it this we Matt
47:20
spy very very early viral marketing they knew this was going to happen even
47:27
though it's on Paramount yes who have no TR I've been trying to find a
47:34
movie I don't and all I know is when I was a kid there was a movie on TV in
47:39
Australia that I taped these are things I know about this movie okay go at the
47:44
beginning there's a guy who is in jail and he gets out of jail by starting a
47:51
fire in his cell and he gets burned taken to the hospital wing and then
47:55
escapes somehow okay okay yeah I remember that that's a thing that sounds
47:58
familiar yeah and then I remember that he get he wants to
48:03
find either it's either his son or some other young boy that he wants to find
48:08
for some reason let's say it's his son I think it's his son and then I remember
48:12
that at the end because obviously they're trying to find the cops are
48:15
trying to find this guy there's a scene where because he wants to tell his son
48:19
something I guess or give him some information or he's he's you know he's
48:22
innocent but he's trying to don't start a fire in a jail cell you'll get burned
48:26
and there a scene where the cops are trying to find him and they're it's him
48:30
and and the kid and they're in a upside down canoe MH in a lake right because
48:35
there's in the air bubble yeah yeah yeah that's all I
48:40
remember I just for some reason I remembered this I've Vivid visual memory
48:45
of scenes in this 100% seen that movie I don't know what it is though but those
48:51
Australian film that no one's going to know some obscure film that was on TV in
48:54
the 80s or 90s you know who you should ask is Craig Anderson yeah you ask Craig
49:00
yeah you're right I should he has seen every movie yeah he's proba I'm pretty
49:05
sure I've seen that but he you want to borrow it on video in my head there're separate
49:12
movies the two that I just mentioned yeah ah it's the same movie I'm sure of
49:16
it I just don't remember what it is and I think maybe I watched it at
49:21
school so it's definitely mov like 80s 90s I could be wrong about that but I
49:28
don't yeah anyway listen as if this Rings any bells right in podcast.com
49:33
it's in school so latest this movie could have come out would be like 96 I'd
49:38
say oh way earlier than that I'm pretty sure this is when I was in primary
49:41
school I watched this primary schooles it because there's no way we
49:45
watched a movie like that when I was in primary school not at your primary
49:49
school M no not my primary school Kindle and Christian School yeah I don't think
49:53
they show jailbreak with someone on I don't think we had TVs at that
50:00
school I no we didn't have TVs in my primary school we had TV at my primary
50:06
school in a room called The Av room oh yeah which yeah of course just a room
50:11
with a TV in it you could maybe we could roll it out into other rooms if it was
50:15
required not not at this school not at this school you went into that room you
50:19
had to if you wanted to watch went to the AV room the next school had that uh
50:24
thing they also had a computer was
50:29
uh I can't remember if it was an Apple 2 or a Macintosh oh um but it was one of
50:35
those we had Apple at the primary school I think I suspect it was Apple
50:41
two we had uh ex yeah you could you
50:45
could rent time to go and spend time with that you couldn't play any gam you
50:52
couldn't do anything on it the Apple two we had at uh Primary
50:57
School had logo on it where you move the little turtle his name draw shapes and
51:01
then it also had one of the Mickey Mouse adventure games something about Mickey Mouse in
51:07
space one of that logo drawing game was was because there was no correct me if
51:13
I'm wrong but like you didn't draw with the mouse like you would draw with with
51:17
Microsoft Paint five turn left step forward 10 yeah yeah like essentially
51:22
like an ex ex ex sketch yeah um yep so
51:30
we had there was a cuz people draw squares like that's the
51:34
easiest sh to draw with that right but competition could somebody draw a circle
51:39
could you could you come up with the commands to draw a circle using
51:43
that speaking of uh computers when we were kids are we doing geek of the week
51:49
in the Afterparty oh we can do it now we can do it now there's nothing that says
51:53
we have the after party man this one hits pretty hard I got to say well we
51:59
don't have to start you know [ __ ] it we'll start with it we'll start yeah we're
52:03
here Kevin mitnik died you guys know Kevin
52:08
mitnick you do personally I don't know him by name no remember in the 90s you
52:15
must remember this we were all going free Kevin free Kevin free Kevin remember
52:21
that Kevin mnik the hacker that the
52:25
hackers is based on infinite movies are based on that he was like the first
52:30
person convicted of a a computer crime right read this book take down this is
52:36
the account of how he was caught yeah he was the he was made an example of
52:41
because he was one of the OG hackers in the US sent to prison and everyone was
52:46
like he didn't really doing he was he called himself a white hat hacker so
52:50
what he used to do was they claimed that he stole a bunch of money what he said
52:54
was I'll give it back I'm just trying to tell people you need to [ __ ] do
52:58
better show you that this can be done yeah did he give it back I mean I think
53:04
so and and until he died like you know a couple of days ago his company no before
53:10
we we work with him at my work they help you f you know you know like
53:16
learn hackers and fishing emails and that stuff we have to do this training
53:19
and I'm watching training videos with him in them like this guy's been part of
53:23
my life since I was a [ __ ] kid so it's kind it's a bummer
53:27
ah yeah and and how did he how did he pass pancreatic cancer oh that's and he
53:34
didn't take anybody with him Luke so you can't disqualify on that Bas no but it's
53:38
sort of it's quite sad he his Partners pregnant with their first child that
53:44
sucks that really sucks so yeah so this is the book about how he got caught this
53:49
called takedown this is a kind of an exciting um semi kind of fictionalized
53:54
account he's got a bunch of other books which I also have the art of deception
53:58
is one because the thing he was most known for was he was less of a less
54:04
known as like a hacker hacker more of a social engineer you know scene in
54:08
hackers where he calls up the company and he says oh I'm working on this file
54:12
and I need to connect to the modem can you read me the number off the modem on
54:16
your end yes and I'll connect to that's the kind of stuff he used to do more of
54:20
the social engineering stuff yeah okay
54:23
so it wasn't look uh this is a tough
54:27
one cuz I need to know if he did anything wrong when he did the hacking
54:33
it's all did he return the money did he well he went to prison for quite a
54:40
while so he almost returned the money whether he wanted to or not I don't I I
54:45
guess I can't say for sure whether he um I mean I'm sure we could find out but
54:51
not probably notely man ask I should have I should who else do we have I
54:56
think about this all right yeah what so actually there's one
55:02
that I didn't know until I saw this in here today Matt yeah yeah Tony
55:08
Bennett Tony Bennett's died I know that name yeah you do you know uh you know
55:14
this old kuner even if you've just seen him cring with the likes of Lady
55:19
Gaga oh God yes I know him Tony I don't even know how to describe Tony Bennett
55:24
he just used to it's kind of like I think of it as like Lounge music
55:28
almost probably not probably not accurate but he's like Sinatra adjacent sure
55:35
yeah Richard Cheese adjacent Richard Cheese adjacent yeah like I Left My
55:41
Heart in s Francisco
55:46
Co yeah he had a good run oh yeah breaking the world where Guinness World
55:51
Record for the oldest person to release an album of new material all right
55:57
H wow so yeah did he take anyone with
56:00
him 96 96 what did he die of just old
56:04
age 96 they just don't worry about figuring out he was what do you want
56:10
from him oh no shoot out with the police no
56:16
I'm [Laughter]
56:21
suicide and the third one Jane Burkin died uh this
56:27
this week um she is a French actress
56:31
from the 60s most oh I did know this yeah she is the you would have seen a
56:38
poster for an old movie uh by Michelangelo antonioni called blowup
56:43
which is a guy standing over a girl taking a photo of her lying on the floor
56:47
yeah very famous cover that's her lying on the floor she's uh the mother of
56:52
Charlotte gainsburg the actress oh [ __ ] really
56:57
yeah H and uh she also was a singer and as you know most of those were just
57:03
generally speaking entertainers she died this wig too
57:06
nothing nothing dramatic she was just old as well yeah well no I think she
57:12
died she had cancer I think right yeah but I mean not not I don't want not not
57:19
not a tragic cancer like uh like Kevin milck he was you know 40
57:25
something years old she was in her 80s or yeah yeah yeah
57:29
mnik was 59 yeah okay sure yeah she had diagnosed with Lumia 16 years ago and
57:35
received round o'clock Care at her home since suffering a stroke in 2021 oh
57:41
wow all right this is a tough one this week you haven't given me anyone that I
57:46
can just rule right out no but if I'm gonna go geek look I'm going to assume
57:52
that Kevin was a good hacker MH
57:58
good good Noble you mean good no hacker yes I promise you in his later life at
58:04
least he was yes he literally helps people fight against this stuff I do
58:08
know there are good ones out there that are hey you've got this problem you might
58:14
want to plug this whole type of stuff so I'm gonna go Kevin whoa whoa
58:19
whoa cuz he likes to plug holes mhm Jane Burkin was in the original death on the
58:25
Nile which is coming out again now as a remake and looks pretty good wait there
58:31
out again yeah yeah no no it's Death in
58:35
Venice I thinking Death in Venice oh oh I mean she's certainly better look at
58:40
than Kevin mnik but wait it was death was it death on the Nile that was that
58:45
the one with galado and U yeah yeah yeah but it's the Poo right yeah yeah yeah so
58:50

59:14
Haunting in Venice that's that's it Haunting in Venice have you seen the
59:17
poster for that it's one of the best film posters I've seen and I think it's
59:21
completely misrepresentative of the kind of Camp mystery movie that it is no
59:27
Haunting in Venice trailer let me have sorry poster poster
59:36
image o with them all standing around no
59:42
there's one it's not there a skull yeah but there's one lipstick

59:52
mask oh it looks like the most [ __ ] goth thing
59:59
ever it won't be exactly that's what I mean like it's it's misrepresentative of
1:00:05
the kind of movie that it actually is yeah yeah those movies are pretty
1:00:12
good I haven't seen any but I know they would be oh you see that that's that's
1:00:18
