- henry: Hey guys, welcome to episode 12 of the Podesty. I'm Henry Wilkinson. I'm Andrew Mosler. And today we are going to be doing an animated movie draft similar to all of our other drafts. We'll do five rounds. Rock, paper, scissors for first pick. I'm hot. Ready? wow. Let's go. Two to two. Two to two. Come on. Let's go, dude. Give me cars, Really? First pick? Give me cars. Easy. All right. I have to. The one-one. Give me cars. All right. I think, we disclosed this off camera. We had to type up an official. The Spider-Verse movies and Fantastic Mr. Fox are not eligible to be drafted because they don't meet certain requirements for this draft. And that being is that we've talked about them already. we kind of want to switch it up a little bit. Because if I could talk about the Spider-Verse movies and Fantastic Mr. Fox, I will. I'll take the opportunity to talk about them. But you guys will probably get sick of that. Alright, with my first pick I'm going be taking How to Train Your Dragon. It gets tough here. It's tough everywhere. It's like there's no really not a wrong pick. I don't think. Okay. And then I think I'm going to take... you I'm gonna, gosh. This is hard. I'm just looking at peak movies. Alright, I'm gonna take Ratatouille. So I got How to Train a Dragon and Ratatouille. Okay, good pick. Thanks. I'm tempted to do something right here. but I'm going to be a little strategic. Okay. Alright. Actually, I don't know if I would You can be strategic. I'm going to take the Jungle Book. Okay. which is one of my favorite movies of all time. was just listening to podcasts today where they were talking about the live action Jungle Book and about how it's apparently good. What? Have you seen it? No. OK. I guess you're just an anti live action guy. mean, I am too. I'm too. I'm extremely anti live But apparently they do something different with it. I don't know. It's not just the thing. But maybe it's been a long time since I've seen that movie. Yeah. That's like really old, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, it's like Whatever whatever the Beatles are around the Beatles play the three vultures in it. It's like 60s. I think yeah, that's like that's a good pick 60s 1967 dude, so good. Yeah, the Beatles are the three All right, so all the three good Beatles Paul yeah, they just leave out Ringo. they do I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. They're made for Shrek 2. Give me Shrek 2. Okay, you just watched the first one, right? It's been a while since I've seen Shrek 2. Shrek 2 is so good. Okay. Maybe the best sequel ever. Yeah, that's fair. Well, it might be the best sequel ever, but I think you're forgetting about it. No, I don't like that movie. No, you're forgetting about the one that I'm to take right here. Go ahead, take it. Story 3. I you were going say Cars 2. No. No. my gosh. Toy Story 3. You got me throwing up in my mouth. OK, so you like Cars 2? Are you kidding me? Cars 2's a banger. No. Cars 2's terrible. All right. Yeah, I got Toy Story 3. pick. Yeah, that is a good pick. I really was just doing it because you said the best sequel is Shrek 2, though. And I just wanted to build off that. Yeah. Toy Story 2 also could have been acceptable. For me it goes 3-2-1 for the Toy Story. Really? I might be 1-2-3. Really? Yeah. Okay. That's interesting. But it's like 5... It's like 1A, 1B, 1C. They're all insanely good. What else you got? Alright. Man. tough. Very tough. I'm gonna take Puss in Boots The Last Wish. I love that. It's a five star. Like, man, is one of my favorite characters, like in any movie. Like he's just so sick. And Wagner Mora is like the voice actor of it and it's awesome. That's a great pick. And I did not, I don't really like the first Puss in Boots that much. But. Yeah, I just randomly watched it like a couple years ago. And I think I've watched it like four times now. Yeah. the visuals are insane in that movie. so that's your fourth pick? Yeah. OK. You got what are your last two picks to round it out for your draft here? For sure I'm gonna take The Lion King. Not the live action one, obviously. And now I'm very torn. Because there's a lot of really good movies that I really love. So I'm debating between Cars 2. Which is so good. Which you don't have to worry about me taking. The original Toy Story, Toy Story 2, and then I guess a lot more. Madagascar. You don't like Madagascar? No, I like Madagascar. Surf's Up. Wreck-It Ralph. Wally and Rango. Maybe I shouldn't have had a reaction. Surf stuff's not up there for me. I really like it. I'm gonna take record Ralph shout out to will see more that I Ralph one of his favorite movies, too Okay, that's a banger So now you now you put me in a bind Because I didn't I did not even have surfs up on my radar Okay, so now you're gonna take it That would look bad if you took a movie that I brought up Because I was looking at my, I didn't like prepare really and I was just looking at my Pixar Dreamworks. Yeah. And Surf's Up is neither of those. I just. what studio? I have no idea. It's so good though. Okay, I think I'm there's a lot of good movies that could get picked here I Could pick Toy Story 2, but I don't want to have two Toy Stories on my team. They could they could be button heads in the locker room. So Yeah, that's true. Is there might cause problems. Yeah, lots. yeah. No, I just I don't think I would really go Toy Story like it's I'm thinking about it, but I don't want to have two Toy Stories I'm thinking... How about How to Train Your Dragon 2? No. I don't want another How Train Your Dragon. How about Madagascar 2? No. The only Madagascar that I would consider is the first one. Okay, thank you. But I'm not going to take it. So I'm between Surf's Up, Wally, and Princess Mananoki. I don't now... and Mulan. crap. And Spirited Away. my god, Spirited Away. Crap, Bobby. Dang. Shoot. And now it's like, where do I go? Because clearly I've won every single draft that we've had. some people just don't know ball like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So where do I go? Do I do it for the fans or do I do it for me or do I do it for both? Yeah. Because I feel like as of now, for the people that follow our page, I feel like if I were to go Spirited Away or Princess Mananoke, there wouldn't be that many people that... That what? That had seen it. That have seen it. You know? Well, that doesn't matter. No, I know. But I'm saying... You gotta pick your fate, you gotta pick... What about Jake and Little? No. Good movie, How about Mulan? No, Mulan is definitely in the conversation. about 101 Dalmatians? No. Okay, with the last pick of the potency. I'm gonna go with Princess Mononoke. Great pick. I think that's my favorite Ghibli so far that I've seen. Good pick. Yeah, okay, so I have... Well, you have the first book. What do you have? So I got Cars, Jungle Book. Correct two, Lion King, Wreck-It Ralph. Okay. And I have How to Train Your Dragon, Ratatouille. Toy Story 3. Puss in Boots, The Last Wish, and Princess Melanoc. Let us know who won. That's a good matchup. There's too many to pick from. though, there's so many good anime. I forgot about the Incredibles. Yeah. mean. I'll do honorable mentions. Wally, it really hurts me that Wally didn't get drafted. That was... I should have taken that over. It's been longer since I've seen that compared to like Princess Mananoki. think that's only reason I ended up taking that. But Wally was much more of a staple and I've seen it a bunch where I've only seen Princess Mananoki once. We talked about Surf's Up, we talked about Mulan. Nezha 2 came out last year and I was like I went to like an empty theater to go watch it in Duluth because it opened in Japan and like before it even released in the States was like the fifth highest grossing movie of all time or something like that. Wow. So then I just went and saw it and it was so good. That's Kung Fu Panda. Yeah. Kung Fu Panda. Prince of Egypt which I have right here. It's great. It's phenomenal. gosh, what is that? What's? What is it, Pixar? Older Disney. Patrick Ward. I don't even know who that is. Joe from Family Guy. He plays Cusco. What is that movie called? What am I thinking of? Something, someone's. Dude, this is driving me crazy. Over the Hedge. season yeah yeah yeah gosh I'm such an idiot that's a banger up soul have you seen soul souls really good inside out Yeah, I say we I say when Wildwood comes out we do another animated draft and we do ten picks ten picks each We go crazy. Yeah. Yeah, just go deep in yeah. Yeah, there's a lot and I forgot about it That was your strategic pick it would have been excited seen it you could have waited for the last pick to do that.
