Joe's Join and Ryan Reynolds Impersonation
00:02:12
Speaker
Um, in case it hasn't become a blatantly obvious, uh, we are, we are joined once again by the person that you, you hear and you you and are dead sober by the way. Yeah. Um, the person you hear every week, but don't often get to hear him live on the show. Joe, welcome back. Uh, welcome back to the show as, as a, as a counterpart rather than, rather than a a voice effect.
00:02:40
Speaker
Well, thank you very much for inviting me. And, you know, not to bury the lead, but we have Ryan Reynolds now. Remember, you're on video, so your vo voc yeah vocal imper impersonations are going to like, you know, as amazing as they are, people are going to see that it's not Ryan Reynolds.
00:02:57
Speaker
Close your eyes. But and like they'll also see like how you do the voice. Yeah. So like I'm not going to do anything. I'm just going to be very deadpan. And people are your facial permutations. Do you have a Ryan Reynolds? Actually, no. Yeah. I don't want to put you on the spot. But yeah, I completely clear. No, I've never actually tried to do a Ryan Reynolds. OK. Well, I've heard some really good ones out there, but I've not tried to do one of my own.
00:03:26
Speaker
There are some really good ones. I saw some really good ones on the TikTok. Yes, it usually does come from the TikTok. The ti the TikTok. um So and yeah we are back with another episode of of toys on film. So we've done a couple of these within the past year or so, ah where we take a look at a at a significant film that has some sort of toy or action figure, a collectible implication to it.
Deadpool & Wolverine Movie Insights
00:03:53
Speaker
um And there was this little film ah that came out two weeks ago. ah Actually, at the time we were hearing this, it's gonna be three weeks ago. um Little film, don't know if you guys have ever heard of it, but ah Deadpool and Wolverine. Of course, it's it's the movie that has made, ah it it is now the highest grossing rated R film of all time. um yeah Breaking all kinds of records. I saw an amazing stat that there are um exactly 119 f-bombs in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. One is in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and the other 118 are in Deadpool and Wolverine. um Couldn't have it any other way. So, you know, it is... I would go as far as to say ah it's a hard R. This movie's a hard R. I loved when people brought their kids into the showing that I went to go see.
00:04:52
Speaker
So, you know, i it's not for kids. No. um Both. I mean, if you thought it any of them have been. I mean, you could make it. You could make the case that once upon a Deadpool, they did a very good job with that PG-13 edit for the. Yeah, I feel like they did that like kidified that one on purpose almost. Yeah, that that worked out really, really well.
00:05:18
Speaker
um which is great because it gave something for, you know, my, my daughter to enjoy. Um, but now, now it's also like, she's like, I want to see more. I'm like, well, you didn't have to wait. Um, what are you doing in 10 years? But it's, it was a, um, I think we all kind of unanimously agree. It was a fantastic, uh, movie. It, it, uh, I think it, uh, it, it,
00:05:48
Speaker
Absolutely. Annihilated expectations. um You know, yeah it it shot for the it shot for the stars and it, it you know, it it was a bullseye. So but my expectations were this is going to be awesome. And it was. And it was awesome. I think it's been the best. ah One of the best Marvel movies that's come out in the last, you know, since Guardians three years, like since Guardians three, I mean.
00:06:13
Speaker
Look, I'm i'm probably one of the one of the biggest Marvel apologists in to one of my core my core group of friends. They're like, yeah, you know, it really hasn't been that good. And I'll i'll usually fight tooth and nail for like the Marvels and for, you know, I don't usually fight very hard for Dark World or Eternals, but I will still sit down and watch them. Dark World is still the bottom of my list. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Eternals was fine. Yeah, and I thought it was all right.
00:06:43
Speaker
I enjoyed it. Um, there isn't one that I haven't enjoyed. Do you enjoy the dark world? Like you would actually like be like, yeah, I'll watch that. I've voluntarily put it on. Interesting. That's a choice. I have to even though it is my, my bottom, but if I do chronological, is it does. I was going to say it's usually cause I'm going to watch other movies. That's fair. That's fair. It's become part of like, like a ritual watching, not like a,
00:07:12
Speaker
You know what I'm in the mood for today? It's like watching Back to the Future 2. You gotta go right into 3. You can't not afterwards. It's true. It's true. It's very, very true. Well, no, because I'll watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 2 after... I'm kidding. Oh my god. I love that show. Yeah, me too. I remember when I was like, you have to watch the work first. I'm like, oh, this is why?
00:07:41
Speaker
Yeah. yeah was ah They played into that really ABC. Great. They did a great job with those commercials. Um, find out what happens. It's all connected. Watch the agents of shield clean up rubble in London and the monster disappear. Yeah. Oh my God. Uh, all right. So to set the stage here, set the stage here. So we'll go, ah we'll, we'll, we'll, you know,
00:08:09
Speaker
Um, a lot happens in this movie. So we're, we're not going to sit here and, and spoil every single aspect of it, but we'll talk about the things that we, you know, we really enjoyed from the movie. Um, and then of course we'll, we'll, we'll get into the toys. Uh, and honestly, when a movie is made mill hundreds of millions of dollars and has been out for three weeks and one of the driving forces behind the movie has already told you everything that happened a week ago, we're not really heading in uncharted territory here. It's true.
00:08:39
Speaker
um But I think it's fair general general warning spoilers abound We're gonna talk about whatever we're gonna talk about and it's gonna be stuff. That's not in any of the trailers It's gonna be stuff from the movie So if you have not seen Deadpool and Wolverine and you have managed to stay if you don't follow Ryan Reynolds on Instagram then or the director of the film ah Sean Levy if you don't follow him if you don't follow Hugh Jackman if you've If you found a very comfortable place under a rock on the internet, congratulations. Um, yeah, I, there will be spoilers. So we'll just put that out there. I would say I'm jealous of you at that point because I had something majorly spoiled for me before the movie even came out. Ooh, what was it? That's a good place. art's twenty three X X 23 was actually spoiled for me, yet but
00:09:33
Speaker
A video auto played. I'm so mad. But in fairness, if they did that. Yeah, like in order for they put her in the trailer on purpose so that way. She could go to the premiere. Yep. Yeah, I mean, I purposely avoided any spoilers when I was on YouTube and then YouTube decided to auto play something and all of a sudden, boom, and I'm like to you.
00:10:01
Speaker
see I was gonna say the thing that got spoiled for me on on X was um Somebody had like aerial drone footage or like long distance telephoto lens or whatever um When they were filming the fight against saber-tooth and I literally saw a picture of Deadpool holding saber-tooth's severed head Like from like a drone and I was like, oh well that blows
00:10:30
Speaker
um i Don't think I had much spoiled but that's also because like
Avoiding Spoilers: Eric's Experience
00:10:37
Speaker
I'm very Like sheltered on Instagram Instagram is all I have full disclosure and I don't Like I follow Ryan Reynolds because of soccer more more than anything and um
00:10:57
Speaker
Yeah. I just, he didn't spoil anything until he didn't spoil anything, but like, he waited for two weeks. Yeah. But also like, usually if you battle lead to the algorithm feeding you things and for whatever reason, I didn't get fed anything. Yeah. I mean, I have our AIC account is very, uh, very, um, what's the word, uh, curated.
00:11:27
Speaker
So that way it does filter out a lot of that stuff. Like I've made sure that I've blocked, I've either blocked accounts that are just like known for leaking or you know full disclosure. I also didn't go on it like the week before the movie. It's a little, one of us has to, one of us has to put ourselves out there. Keep keep the account going. oh When big movies come out, just stop posting. It's like, that's it. Sorry. No toy news until I go see the man in the red spandex.
00:11:56
Speaker
Um, okay. So Deadpool Wolverine, it's been, um, shit a while, right? 2018 was the last Deadpool movie, right? That sounds ah about right. That sounds about right. Wow. Um, so in fairness a few things happened. Yep. Nice, nice big gap there though. But in that time period, right? Like Disney acquired Fox. And that's one of the things I will say, I will comment, not negatively, but I think a critique of this movie, I went to go see it with with ah with Jess, I went to go see it with my wife. um And she watches all the Marvel movies, she watches all the TV shows, but she doesn't she doesn't consume like the pop culture news part of things. So there were a couple things in this movie that were so meta to a casual viewer, like even like i somebody who's, again, comfortable with the entire MCU. There were a couple of things that were like,
00:12:53
Speaker
Like kind of like law, I could tell we're like lost on her, especially like all of like the Fox humor. And like, you know, if you're not paying attention to like the mergers and acquisitions in the the pop culture world, or like the fact that Channing Tatum was cast to be gambit and then never got to be gambit. Like that movie never happened. Right. Like, so so I was, if you're not talking minutia, minutiae kind of miss some of that stuff.
00:13:19
Speaker
I was talking to Christina, my fiance, and like we pretty much settled on like the one that was like the deep cut was Channing Tatum. Like you had to you had to like kind of be in on basically Comic Con announcements hu in order to know that he was supposed to be Gambit. um I mean, the rest of them are surprising because just the Disney buying everything was just big news.
00:13:51
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, maybe not the two and two of like, Oh, I forgot the X-Men or Fox or like. and That's the, fit that's the more the thing, like that kind of like bifurcation of like the Marvel properties in the nineties, you know, when they sold everything off, I think a lot of people like present company excluded, right? I think there, are a lot of people were not so kind of embedded in that.
00:14:16
Speaker
I should say a lot of people that have been sucked into the fandom of the MCU through these movies, right? I think a lot of those people have not been on along for the ride that long, right? Like you still have people that are kind of relatively new because what the MCU technically you want to say what kicked off and with the Avengers, right? Like, I mean,
00:14:38
Speaker
2008, but the MCU wasn't even like an announced concept at that point. Like we really didn't start to see it coming together until... So if you want to give it fairness, the Hulk. Incredible Hulk. End credits of the Hulk. so was it Not even. he's He's not even in the end credits. He's in the last five minutes of the movie. Oh, I thought Tony Stark was the was the stinger on that one. No. In the bar. He's just in the movie. Got it.
00:15:05
Speaker
Yeah, man, my my brain is going your way, Eric. It's that it was after the credits, but yeah yeah that was a stinger. Yeah, you're right. Him coming in his baggy pants suit. um But but yeah, like, you know, you have a lot of people that have kind of hopped in, you know, along the way. And i ah yet to to that point, you know, Channing Tatum, I think that was that was a huge, huge, deep cut. And I mean, I to use, ah to use a wrestling term that we we love to use. I popped huge for that. like when you walk i Yeah, that was cool. And, and it wasn't what I was expecting either. Right? Cause like in that scene, so in, in, in the film, um, one thing that I will say, if you haven't seen it yet and you're kind of on the fence and you're starting to listen to reviews and things like that prerequisite watching other than the first two Deadpool films, Loki.
00:15:56
Speaker
You've got to watch season one and two of Loki. um Very, very necessary. Watching the TVA plays a massive part in this movie as yeah and of the void, you know, a lot of it happens in in the void from yeah the the the place at the end of time from, uh, from that TV show or on, or from the Disney plus show. Sorry. Um, but i want to say they did a good job.
00:16:23
Speaker
I know, yes, watching Loki is 100% you should do it. It will help you, but I think they did a very good job. I don't think you have to, though. I would put it in pre-re... If you wanted to prepare for this movie, I think at least watching season one of Loki. As well as Daredevil with Ben Affleck.
00:16:45
Speaker
yeah I mean, and Logan and, you know, and whatever other movies at that point. Well, they do enough. I think they do enough of setting up. I mean, they show you the parts of Logan that you really kind of like need to see. And that, but, um, you know, also live though, like there's a lot, there's a lot, of but, but in that void sequence, right. When, when we're introducing, explain a fair amount though, explain enough where you're not going to be lost.
00:17:12
Speaker
Yeah, what's the term? um In media res. They they do a ah decent job of dealing with in media res, just dropping you in the middle of kind of things. But in that void sequence, right we're we're introduced to you know some ah a bunch of the cameos. And we see for the first time in a very long time, we see Wesley Snipes as Blade. We've got Jennifer Garner as Electra. We've got Chris Evans as
Wesley Snipes' Return as Blade
00:17:40
Speaker
ah Johnny Snipes. Well, they're later, though.
00:17:42
Speaker
Well, I mean, it just in in that, vote since we've been talking so much about Channing Tatum, but like, you know, you have those characters kind of thrown at you for the first time in a very long, and and of course, you twenty agree um Wesley was my biggest pop.
00:17:57
Speaker
Yeah, that unbelievable. and ice snipes is first I mean, I'm not going to say it on here. Obviously his first words in the MCU big old R word right, right out of his mouth. My wife's a teacher. She doesn't like that word. so it's fair The first words, first word out of his mouth but for the MCU and it's something that'll get him canceled. And it also, it also cements him now as technically the longest, um,
00:18:26
Speaker
the longest tenured member of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This is very true. So he now beats out Robert Downey Jr. as having been doing this the longest. And he looked great. He looked fantastic. I'll be that toy. I know we'll get there. But I've been taking to calling those cameos, those characters, the Void Avengers. Well, they are the Anarchy Avengers. That's the official Oh, is it the the Anarchy Avengers? OK. Because that's the shirt that they have, like that you you can buy the shirt with the A, but it's drawn over it as the Anarchy A. Got it. Like Deadpool drew over it. Got it. Got it. Got it. OK. Yeah, I mean, that was just all because he wanted. Yeah. So clever. Just so clever. Like that was if you've seen Ryan Reynolds doing press in the Avengers hat with the Anarchy A over it, that's the. That's awesome. Got it.
00:19:24
Speaker
Yeah. and I need that in my life.
Chris Evans' Cameo as Johnny Storm
00:19:26
Speaker
I have my Pym tech hat on currently, but I, I, yeah, I need that. I need that in my life. I mean, just, just to start off with like the first, one of the very first cameos though, like Chris Evans, Chris Evans coming back and you're like, I started to well up. I'm like, Oh,
00:19:49
Speaker
well i and Part of me knew right away theme exactly what it was gonna be because ah the thing is right. It's like Okay, my brain went ah it was one of those things were like Thankfully the movie kind of like had a little bit of a pause as like you're just kind of taking in that atmosphere that they're in Thankfully there wasn't a whole lot going on because my brain was going like a million miles an hour like okay is it a different version of Captain America that like they needed to send to the void for some reason. Like, is it like, are we getting like hail Hydra cap or like, is there, and then, and then I was like, Oh wait, no, duh. This is definitely Johnny's door. He was thrown out. It was very weird though. Cause that was not from that movie. That's his real voice. That's just, yeah, that's just the way he's been because in the, in that movie, he didn't even do that. Like he was, no, he's got that like Massachusetts accent. That's his real voice.
00:20:45
Speaker
Okay. So he's just being himself and he just hearing the, so like the, the hearing dead bull and Wolverine curse the entire movie for, first of all, before we go back to Chris Evans, Todd, I'm just talking about the cursing. This was the most, this was like the closest to what I close my eyes and think of when I think of Wolverine that like we've ever gotten on film, just like the complete rough around the edges, like.
00:21:13
Speaker
that this was Wolverine. It was, it was perfect. And him just being able to kind of like rip those lines, like that, but that, that monologue that he has in the minivan where he says, I, I, that was the quote that I keep revisiting. Like in I'm, I'm for those listening, I'm like tapping my chest, but like I got choked up. I mean, you could hear a pin drop in the theater and we were in a pack here. You could hear a pin drop when he said,
00:21:43
Speaker
one of God's cruelest jokes is that you can't die except the joke is on us and he starts punching the top of the car and he's like he's just completely shredding Deadpool as a character that line is just it like it's it's so brutal I mean he just says you couldn't even be an X-Man and they'll fucking take anybody yeah it's like oh okay no wonder the Avengers wouldn't take you oh it's just like there were there were reviews going in that said like I read kind of like hey this is great and like people that were like oh it's a one note thing and they're wrong but um the people that were like saying that this is almost better this is almost a better performance than in logan yeah were pretty spot on spot on with it yeah
00:22:38
Speaker
I would actually say that the performance he gives in Logan, as great as it is, and like don't get me wrong, that that especially the last 25 minutes of that film. Yeah, know the third act is, yeah. But um it's a very one-dimensional performance when you really think about it, right? like His character arc is, you're you're seeing him at that at the very tail end of his character arc, so like you know I think in terms of dynamics. His character arc in that movie is you had to do homework.
00:23:08
Speaker
Yeah Whereas in this like you get to see that full like he he messed up You know, he he he literally cost all of the X-Men in his universe their lives like he turned he turned people against the X-Men and Is just kind of to the point where they're ripping him in the bar in the beginning. Yeah. Yeah um and the and just the whole thing with like and and like him wearing the suit constantly like under his clothes just it's just so it's it's honestly it's heartbreaking and and that's the thing that always makes Wolverine an interesting character when whether you're reading the comics whether games movies whatever when they lean into the fact that he's like inside he's just this man that can't
00:24:00
Speaker
you know, feasibly can't die. His bones are slowly poisoning him to death, but it's going to take forever for him to actually die because of his healing, you know, his healing capabilities. Um, and he's just, he's sad. He's lonely and like, he doesn't want to be a hero and he keeps being pushed into the situation where he has to be. And like, it always goes back to that thing where like, when he explains, like every time I stick out my claws, it It hurts. Like, you know, like, like, it's just he's such a. It was like, does it hurt every time? Yeah, he he's such a he can be such a dynamic character and he's so well cast with with Hugh Jackman that like this movie, I think really he he shined better than he he ever has because he got to do kind of the whole thing, like all the way to the end, like all on like.
00:24:55
Speaker
Back to heavy spoiler land. Just that whole montage. The Wolverine montage? Yeah. Oh my God. I mean, I, everyone that came out like my, so comic accurate shirt Wolverine. I love that Wolverine. Um, my, you know, my wife's not a big comic book person. So, but like, as this was happening, I was like,
00:25:18
Speaker
I think like my face just kept going. ah The, the, uh, apocalypse. That was the one that got me the Kirk, the Kirk Cohen, uh, yellow and, and, uh, tan or tan and, uh, brown and yellow, brown and yellow. Like, and and then you see the reflection of Hulk in his, in his, uh, in his claws, like the top of the cover. Holy. Oh my God. Just.
00:25:46
Speaker
him with the one hand, uh, the age of apocalypse, uh, the nightmare when he's on a frigging cross with a bunch of skulls skulls. They just, they went everywhere. And then cavaline cavalry cavalry. And I, and I like, you know, there, there were a couple of.
00:26:06
Speaker
One of the things that makes Deadpool so interesting, regardless of what media you're consuming him in. And remember, the rumor was like, oh, Hatch is going to be a different person. And it was yeah like they kind of teased you. And nope, it was it was still but that wasn't the one they were waiting for. Daniel Radcliffe. Well, that was the that was the big rumor and that Daniel Radcliffe was going to be accurate. He's a little guy. It's a little guy.
00:26:30
Speaker
um But yeah, like I, I loved all of the fourth wall breaking stuff too, especially with like cavalry and when he was like, um, we'll treat you better than that other company. And then I don't know if you saw, but Henry Cavill eventually, um, after that kind of two week Mark, he posted a picture of himself as the Wolverine. And he said, uh, I shaved the mustache this time, but just the mustache.
00:26:58
Speaker
ah So perfect. So it's just, you know, they, they really, they shot for the moon and they, they had a perfect, yeah a perfect, perfect landing. I mean, like pee I saw some of the reviews coming into it and I try not to read reviews really anymore, but, um, one of the reviews unfairly used the word fan service, like What comic, and I don't want to say comic book movie, I was corrected earlier, there are a lot of movies that are superhero movies that are or comic book movies that are not superhero movies. So like superhero movies, right? What superhero movie, and and i I challenge either of you to name one, what superhero movie has zero fan service in it? Like zero. Even something as like dark and gritty as like the Batman has
00:27:52
Speaker
fanservice in it, regardless of how you feel about that movie, but like... Does the original Blade have fanservice? I mean, he... he It's a Blade. The fact that it exists is fanservice. It's just Blade, yeah. mean like You know, he's... The when he the first time he does hits a superhero landing and pulls out swords, that's I mean, it's fanservice, you know? It's true. I hate when people use that term when they're talking about Superhero movies because it's it's a superhero. Oh, you know what? I wish they would have done Now they think about it why wasn't he had also Hannibal King? Oh Man, yeah They could have done that they could have done like Wesley could have been like you look familiar It's true It's true
00:28:49
Speaker
especially like seeing handsome Deadpool. handsome Yeah. Very good. You sound nice earlier. Nice. Yeah. That's what it was. It wasn't. hand because I don't I don't I don't think he I mean, if he did see um nice pool, um we didn't. Oh, is then that an interaction? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's he could have been like, you sound familiar.
00:29:12
Speaker
That would have worked. Very good point. Yeah. Totally would have worked. But the the story behind the Wesley Snipes thing is hilarious. like now you know Now that all the movie's out and you know everyone's starting to kind of tell the story about how they put this stuff together,
00:29:25
Speaker
um he apparently, Ryan Reynolds, reached out to him and was like, hey, would you do it again? And Wesley Snipes' reaction was apparently, they're not gonna let you do that. like They just cast Mahershala Ali as Blade. And he was like, no, no, but if I can, would you do it? And he was like, fuck yeah, like sure.
00:29:45
Speaker
And then, you know, he gets, it's like one of his favorite roles he's ever been. And then, and then he said, he got the call back and he was like, suit up. And he was like, Oh man, now I gotta actually do it. There's only going to be one blade, but yeah, it was great. ah so But like, like, it's just so cool. and i I know a lot of money was exchanged here. These, these, these actors were paid a lot of money. They, they padded the lope for them, but, um,
00:30:13
Speaker
But did they get trailer compounds? Yeah. Oh God. Yeah. We should probably talk about that a little bit. Um, as that news kind of came on the heels of this movie, but we'll, we'll, we'll get to that. Um, but, uh, but yeah, apparently Dave, you were saying they, they tried to make Nicholas cage work too. They, they, it was one of those things where that was, that was an idea. I, if I remember reading correctly, that's an idea they had, but they couldn't figure it out. Yeah.
00:30:44
Speaker
Yeah. though and And I mean, the, the last thing I heard, the most recent thing I heard was that Ryan Reynolds was literally like a day or two out from meeting with Kevin Feine and, or him and Sean Levy were like a day or two out meeting for meeting with Kevin Feine. And they were, they were basically going to punt again and be like, give us another two years. Like let's figure out like a story and everything. When he got a phone call from Hugh Jackman, that Hugh Jackman was like, I want to do Wolverine again. Is there anything we can do?
00:31:15
Speaker
And Ryan Reynolds was like, well, I'm meeting with Kevin Feing two days to talk about the next Deadpool movie. And he was like, I don't know, make it happen. So they apparently went to like Sean Levy, like that day and there, and he was like, he was willing to come back. And they literally caught like, put together a concept for that meeting. And that was the kind of impetus for the, the movie that we got. So, um, you know, it's, it's very clear.
00:31:44
Speaker
And it has been since day one that Ryan Reynolds like really gives a shit about this character. and like it's just As a comic book fan and as a fan of this kind of big world that they've built, you want those types of passionate people involved, right? like Because you're not going to get phoned in stuff. but if you you want You want that.
00:32:09
Speaker
So the fact that we now have him and Hugh Jackman for the foreseeable future, you know, in in this whatever leg of the MCU, which I guess is a perfect segue until you're 90. Yeah, until you're 90. You're 90. Disney's going to make him do this till he's 90. So I mean, there's a rumor floating about of a Wolverine Hulk movie. Nothing, what do you know, flying around there. But I know like Jackman, you know, he's he's even said he's like, you know, it's your your bones start to hurt as you get older. like He would do it as like a cameo style thing in in future movies, but doing all the action sequences. But did you see his abs? Those were his abs. I know. It's insane. I have no excuse. and I mean, i I went to the gym today and all I kept thinking was Hugh Jackman's abs. Hugh Jackman's abs. He said 6,000 calories a day. It was all too sloppy and beans, he said. so
00:33:08
Speaker
Good to know you don't have a Ryan Reynolds, but you have a pretty good, pretty good of you, Jack. And now a word from our sponsors.

00:34:05
Speaker
And now, back to the show. Yeah, but so so implications into the larger Marvel universe. Right. So we've we've now we've we've pulled to to two concepts were kind of introduced in this movie. Or one is that happy takes interviews for if you want to be an adventure. That is so funny. All those little bits and bobs and all in the office. The original shield. So shout out shout out to Ryan Airy screen crush.
00:34:33
Speaker
um He called out an Easter egg and in his most recent video in the movie that I missed, that I thought was absolutely hilarious. So I guess, ah at least according to him, sources, whatever, they only have an X amount of movies like per contract that Tom Holland can be actually physically featured in. so And that includes like if there is a picture of Tom Holland on a shelf, that counts. So like Dave, you lose an entire movie by just having him in a picture.
00:35:03
Speaker
so The picture of him and Tony Stark was on the desk. Like they they showed like a desk behind them, like ah a so a sideboard behind them that had that picture that Tony Stark ends up like holding up in the Avengers. But you can only see Tony Stark in the picture. The helmet, the toy Iron Man helmet that the little kid is wearing in Iron Man 2 at the Stark Expo, which they Confirmed that as a young Peter Parker in that scene. The helmet is actually blocking the picture This is the half of the picture that has Tom Holland in it and So like they were able to call out that like yep You're in that universe that you remember you remember that picture you saw enough of it to know that that's the one that Tony Stark Picks up and it makes him think like oh I should flip the thing upside down and that's what helps him invent time travel, right? um That picture was there but it was blocked by the helmet I just thought that that was such a nice little
00:36:03
Speaker
Nice little touch.
MCU's Anchor Concept Introduction
00:36:04
Speaker
Um, but the, the biggest, you know, kind of feature, I guess you could say of this movie is the concept of an anchor being, right? That's the first time we've heard this in the, in the MCU. Um, which was a really cool concept. Yes. but no Well, we've had similar things. So we have, we now have an anchor being, we now have a nexus event and we have a.
00:36:34
Speaker
Um, what was the third one? I'm blanking anchor being nexus event. Nexus events are, are events that cannot be changed. We learned that. And what if, um, that there are certain events that no matter what you do, they happen. Um, and it's the one from the spider verse that they talk about. Oh, you save too, you save too many captains and you destroy the universe. Um, god I forgot what I can't, even move it is I can't think of what it is, but But anyway, this concept of an anchor being, being that if a certain person in your universe dies, that leg of the universe, that branch will eventually die. Like it'll eventually, you know, go back to the root and and fall apart. Um, and we learned that in Deadpool's universe, uh, Logan was that, uh, that anchor being. So now of course.
00:37:29
Speaker
Everyone's trying to figure out with all of the different universes that we've seen, and the main Marvel universe being 616. Which was the Fox universe. Deadpool's universe is the Fox universe, yeah. I think that's 10,000 or like, what is it, 1005. 1005, I think they said. um So we know that the anchor being in that was Logan, he fixed the situation by stealing somebody else's Logan.
00:37:57
Speaker
the screwing that universe he might not be the anchor being yeah because remember he he found the worst wolverine yeah um but uh yeah so so now everyone is speculating like oh who's the anchor being in six one six is it definitely not tony so definitely not tony he's gone already um i hear a lot of spider-man is the rumor that i keep hearing that it's tom holland Somebody was saying, uh, what is, what is the girl's name, uh, that Wong hangs out with and, and she, oh, Madison, Madison is the anchor being of, of six one six two, two D's Y S two ends. Um, she was, she was, she's great. Uh, be amazing. Protect Madison at all costs. Um,
00:38:50
Speaker
But yeah, so that that concept is definitely going to have you know a ripple effect through whatever they end up doing and in the MCU going forward. um And we do have ah kind of a head heading, right? So Deadpool came out Comic Con week. And on Saturday at San Diego Comic Con, they revealed two things. The Russo brothers are back. i And they will be doing the next two Avengers films.
00:39:19
Speaker
um the doomsday and doomsday and senior force following the fantastic four and um earth thunderbolts and fantastic four and her steps yeah and captain america so hyped on on fantastic four i saw the ah Somebody had like a cam footage yeah trailer from, and I watched it like four times. It was so, it's so good. And it takes place in that kind of like Jetson Z retro future sixties. It looks fantastic. Galactus at the end, not being a giant cloud. It's great. It's great. Um, but, uh, the, the big, the big announcement is that Robert, that Robert, Robert Danny Jr. is, is back as, uh, as a Victor Von Doom. So.
00:40:07
Speaker
I was not thrilled at first, but I've come to come around just, you know, doing a little bit more research on comics that I've missed and, you know, reading some like else world, Dr. Doom stories and, and, you know, infamous. Yep. So it's like that people are thinking could have something to do with it. Infamous is the other way around. So infamous is when Dr. Doom becomes, becomes Iron Man. Yeah. But I mean,
00:40:36
Speaker
I think it's superior. No, that's superior. i or Superior is Doc Ock and Spider-Man. So when Doc Ock puts his mind in Peter Parker's body, he becomes superior, Spider-Man. Of which, by the way, people who are like mad that, well, how can Robert Downey Jr. be two people? A, we have precedent of two people being characters Different characters. Yeah throughout the MCU even in the MCU. We've got three spider-men Hersha Ali has now been two people. Mm-hmm. Yep. Yep cotton cotton mouth and and blade eventually um We've got two different electros we've got two different daredevils established now we've got Sheesh
00:41:34
Speaker
Two different, technically two different sabertooths. Two different Mr. Fantasticks. Yep. Oh, yeah, that's a great call. Uh, yeah. So with with the the concept of the multiverse, it does. Eventually it's going to become variants now. Like it's, it's a little bit deus ex multiverse, you know, it becomes a little bit of like ah a tool that can probably be abused. But if there are two people, I'm not going to question.
00:42:03
Speaker
with MCU stuff, it's the Russo brothers. They have been- Well, the other thing too is like, and and you know, maybe it's me talking myself into it, whatever, but you know, he's been the ultimate good in Iron Man, and now he's like the ultimate bad. Like- Yeah. I mean, i would- It could have a similar arc in the opposite direction. Sure. And maybe it does lead to infamous Iron Man.
00:42:30
Speaker
You know, maybe, but I absolutely love though, like them getting somebody completely different to play, like actual Victor Von Doom. Like I would love that. And my, my top pick has always been Matt, uh, Matt Mickelson. I know he's, he was in, you know, Dr. Strange as, as, uh, I forgot what his name is now, but I, my topic has always been him to CS has always been him for Dr. Doom.
00:42:57
Speaker
um umm i'm on I'm on the Cillian Murphy train for Dr. Doom. I'm Oppenheimer 2.0. Yes. Doomenheimer. Doomheimer. I have to think about it. I've never really of like,
00:43:15
Speaker
kind of I've never worked like, you know, kind of like, who would you, who do you think should be this person? um Because I've just never gotten around to it. um but
00:43:27
Speaker
You know, it's also that rumor of Robert Downey was like out before a Comic Con. Yeah. Yep. And at which point I'm like, that's a great idea. Like, I'm sorry. I was like, Oh, okay. Yeah, I don't hate it. It's I don't dislike it at all. My only thing is cash grab, whatever it is, like,
00:43:54
Speaker
Hail Mary, whatever you want to call it, I think it's a cool idea. Clearly, they have something planned. They have some sort of big idea planned. They would not be wasting a moment like this. They wouldn't do it C to their pants. Yes. I mean, the heartbreak that Spider-Man is going to experience alone is going to be on the levels of Mr. Stark. I don't feel too good. And Pepper. When anyone first sees him. Yeah. Yeah.
00:44:22
Speaker
yeah you know, think about all the happy and I think, and I think that's like, yeah, sure. You know, Chris Evans was just Johnny storming in or like, whatever, but that's where it's like the ultimate good is now the ultimate bet. And like, they've got to deal with that. Yep. If they could just back the truck of money up to Chris Evans house to make him captain America to face off against, uh, you know, downy doom, then,
00:44:50
Speaker
I mean, I, I would say never say never with this because again, like, you know, I was just saying it before, but like the Russo brothers have such a like stone cold track record with the work. There are also so many characters out there that like, you know, you're, bringing you're now bringing X-Men and Fantastic Four into this world. Like you don't need captain America back or you don't need Steve Rogers back.
00:45:20
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, and and I think I think everyone everyone who has any doubts first of all like full disclosure You know when I think of Captain America sure I think of Steve Rogers like that's that's but in my head when I close my eyes So like ah that is that being said like even as as you know ah Biased as I am And he's fantastic, by the way. I loved um Falcon and the Winter Soldier. and like eventually went ostensibly It outstanding. Outstanding. out of all those Out of all the shows, it's been one of the best. And and he the he's the main reason for that. I mean, he's so good as sam as Sam Wilson. And I'm i'm ah like, I can't wait.
00:46:08
Speaker
You guys know i'm I'm a big, big Hulk guy, so I can't wait for Brave New World. Like... Oh, that movie's gonna be amazing. and That movie's gonna be fantastic. the Everything that I've seen from it so far, like all of the trailers and, you know, stuff that look fantastic and Harrison Ford's gonna be turning into Red Hulk and my my poor little heart and brain is not gonna be able to, like, process it. Like, I'm just so excited. But, like,
00:46:34
Speaker
Again, like so like sam Sam Wilson, you have you have a really strong Captain America character. You're starting to establish like either the new Avengers or the West Coast Avengers, whichever team you want to go with next. because like white Young Avengers, whatever you want to do. You still have White Vision floating around out there. so um yeah we even though they've said Even though they've said Wanda is dead, no, she's not. There's no shot. you but You barely saw it. You saw something poof.
00:47:04
Speaker
you know, with the, with the mountain, but you, you barely saw her die. So no. And they also clearly cleaned up that something with that timeline because the, the big Wanda shaped thing was in Deadpool. Yeah. Yeah. It was it was in there. Like that, their little anarchy Avengers um room. So they're not going to,
00:47:29
Speaker
i Can't imagine and again like talk about like Elizabeth Olsen is just so good like she's and also it's comic books nothing ever really dies No, correct. and I mean ever maybe Johnny storm. I think he's dead. I think he's dead. No. No, he's coming back i Well that Johnny storm. Yeah that Johnny storm. He did yeah, there's a new one. Yeah, I ah But I think there's a That was a Mortal Kombat fatality. Just skinned them. And she was great, too. ah Cassandra Nova. has sick what What a great villain. What an absolutely fantastic villain. They did a great job. um But obviously, these that effect was so off-putting and disturbing. like The fingers coming out, the nose. And like the um and that was their idea to to try to like look like McAvoy, too. Yeah.
00:48:24
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, she looked like she could have been, definitely could have been his twin. Oh, yeah. um For sure. um I'm trying to help you with the pronouns. and i Oh, I'm sorry. Did I mispronoun the actress that plays the actor that plays the actor that plays Cassandra Nova? I i apologize. They did a fantastic job. thank you for Thank you for calling that out, Dave. I missed that. You're welcome.
00:48:52
Speaker
But, uh, around that, whatever you want to do. No, I'm going to leave it in because sometimes we're human. We make mistakes and we correct things. So I did not realize that, uh, that the actor was used they as their pronoun. So I didn't know that either. So thank you. Thank you for, for edumacating me today. Um, but, uh, so, so technically in the MCU, this is now our second X-Men. Look at the emmon Emma, Emma Corin, Emma Corin. Awesome.
00:49:21
Speaker
Awesome. Like, yeah, fantastic. Unfortunate that we're getting that we're one and done there. Yeah. Fantastic villain. So so now I'm curious, right? Because weve we we've now seen two different universes where the X-Men exist. So we've seen what we have in Deadpool and Wolverine and then what we had at the end of the Marvels, right? Because we saw we had um Hank is as as as as the Beast. We had ah ah Kelsey Grammer back as as beast. Um, I mean, it it all, it all started with Kamala in, in Ms. Marvel. They, that's where they, they entered the, enter the world of mutants. Yup. Yup. So I think, I think for the end of Ms. Marvel, I think with, with, see with secret wars on the horizon, right. There's, there's a lot to bypass it with the, with Quicksilver and, uh, Scarlet witch and then because they couldn't, but now they can come back. Yep. Yep.
00:50:18
Speaker
Even, uh, what is it? Even, um, dr. Strange, did you bring in professor? Now you keep bringing in all these pieces. ye Yep. Yep.
New Marvel Legends Figures Announcement
00:50:30
Speaker
Everything's starting to to kind of line up and, you know, I think we have some anchors there, you know, pun intended, but, uh, let's talk about the toys guys. So, um, out the gate, of course everyone like wants ah collectors right everyone wants toys from from this movie we've got a couple that are a bunch that have been announced all for just Deadpool and Wolverine specifically like those two characters so um we've got three Marvel Legends figures
00:51:00
Speaker
from this movie specifically, along with a new Deadpool legacy figure of Colossus. Which could be. Yeah, he counts, he's in it. um But we have Wolverine in the blue and yellow. ah We do not have battle-damaged Wolverine yet, so he's got the full sleeves, and he has the option for the cowl up or down. We've got Deadpool minus the golden guns, because he doesn't get them until the end. Rest rest in peace. Rest in peace. Nice pool. Um, and then, you know, my, my favorite, what do you mean heel? That was my God. That was so good. and So good. Um, and then my favorite of those three releases. So those two are the, obviously like the two like coolest ones, but my favorite, what they did with the other, um, Wolverine figure is it's actually head pool is how the carrot, the box art is actually designed.
00:51:55
Speaker
So it's head it's a head pull figure with a Wolverine accessory. So it intenses it comes it comes with Wolverine in his um it comes with the clothes that he's wearing in the bar. But what's interesting is seeing seeing the figure like kind of standing up, you can see that he's got the costume under like under his suit and he has, you can see the, um, in his like suit pocket, he has, uh, the gloves, the like blue gloves are like hanging out of his suit pocket.
00:52:28
Speaker
Tucked in, so that's cool. um Really nice little touch. So those three figures, um they're available. they're They're sold out most places with the exception of that street clothes Wolverine. um The other two are pretty much sold out everywhere. SH Figure Arts also has their Deadpool and Wolverine. They look fantastic. They were on display for the first time at San Diego Comic Con. Anyone that was there got to see them.
00:52:53
Speaker
um And then Hot Toys doing their thing, so they've they've got Wolverine, they've got Deadpool in both a deluxe and standard version. the um I think the Deadpool comes with, the deluxe one comes with Headpool and comes with Babypool. Might even come with Dogpool.
00:53:12
Speaker
don't quote me on that one i'm not like i don't stay super on top of the hot toy stuff but then hot toys also has um a deluxe wolverine that's shirtless so he's heba jacket yeah he's he's got the uh he's got the uh the uh the abs and stuff which is hilarious um What's funny was when I first saw the figures, I'm like, his beard looks strange. And then I saw the movie, I'm like, oh my god, it looks exactly like how it does on the figures. yeah Yeah, it's crazy. The likeness on the um um then the Wolverine figures ah that Hasbro did with the Marvel Legends, it's just out it's insane. One of the best Logan likenesses, Hugh Jackman likenesses that they've done. And then um the other thing I wanted to call out, somebody brought it to my attention today. um
00:53:57
Speaker
I'm familiar with the company because they've done a series of amazing Iron Man figures. So a company out of um taiwan or Thailand. It's either Thailand or Taiwan.
00:54:08
Speaker
um but they don't sell in the U.S. So you have to either get them like you have to get them through the import import market. So they sell on like AliExpress and and um websites like that. But this company ZD Toys, they are officially licensed Marvel products. um They have a Deadpool and Wolverine as well. So I did grab their Deadpool and Wolverine just because ah I've not had a whole lot of hands on experience with those figures, but they looked really good. Pictures looked great. So I'm curious to see
00:54:41
Speaker
um what those look like, but ah lots of Deadpool, lots of Wolverine, so many other characters. So let's do a quick round robin here. um You could do a wave of just like ancillary characters. Good. um Toad, Sabretooth, X-23. That's right. ah The dude that Kevin Nash played in the one movie. He was in that in that void. and Unfortunately, it wasn't Kevin Nash. Juggernaut, which wasn't Benny Jones.
00:55:12
Speaker
I mean, I think the ones that everybody would want, right? Like at the gate, like if you had to prioritize Cassandra Nova. um Well, let's say like main story, right? Yeah. um So main story, Cassandra Nova X 23. She's never had a figure. um Gambit, Blade, Electra, ah Johnny Storm.
00:55:39
Speaker
And then, you know, if, if you're going to do a full wave, right. You need one more for pyro. Yeah, it would, would be a great one. Or, uh, Richard. faden Is it Richard? Oh, the, uh, uh, the TDA paradox. para parax Yeah. Um, paradox would be great.
00:56:01
Speaker
any of the Deadpool core. So Blake Lively as lady Deadpool. Nice pool. Nice pool. Shout out to Welsh pool. Yeah, Welsh pool. Welsh pool. The entire Reynolds family was in the movie. The baby did, their baby did like mocap for the baby pool and kid pool was his daughter. So his daughter was in the suit for that.
00:56:30
Speaker
But the the baby, I think, either reference photo or mocap of some kind, but he said that the baby was was ah was his. I would imagine somebody's going to get a dog pool to hold. Well, that's the thing. if you If you do nice pool, you get the golden guns that you can give to Deadpool and you get um ah Mary Puppins. I love that dog. So funny.
00:56:54
Speaker
um And people were saying that if if they, if they can have one playset from this entire movie, they'd want the van. They'd want just a Honda Odyssey, which is perfect. and honestly with blood all over it Never going to happen, but perfect. Um, yeah, I would say like, you know, obviously there's, there are like, it's not like Star Wars, right? Where like, once you're in Star Wars, your likeness rights belong to Lucasfilm and they can make toys of you.
00:57:23
Speaker
Like the MCU does not have that deal clearly, which is why there are some pretty key characters throughout the MCU that have not had figures. Um, some of which we've mentioned on, on this episode and Casilias and you know, characters like whiplash and you know, so on and so forth, right? Like we have not had figures of them. So hopefully fingers very firmly crossed. Um,
00:57:48
Speaker
that if they haven't got likeness rights for some of these actors, they can go back and say like, hey. um Because. he's gonna And if they could, then maybe I wonder if they could do like a legacy as well since they. Yeah. Yeah. you do You do a legacy line and cause I mean, we, we still don't even have ah an unmasked Ryan Reynolds. Like, like they haven't even done like a crispy Deadpool face. I mean, now they can do ones with staples all in his head. Yeah.
00:58:19
Speaker
car sales well I wouldn't be surprised to if like Disney did not want to do the Fox ones makes sense makes sense I mean they did a couple of Fox figures right they did they've done um not since not before not since ownership's gone over though no no it was before that they did the the Professor X and Magneto two-pack, did a couple of Logans, did Mystique, um Rebecca Romain as Mystique, and they did the Logan two-pack with like Old Man Wolverine and and Xavier. So um yeah, they have not gone deep into that Fox first or whatever we want to call it. um
00:59:03
Speaker
But yeah, the blade if you want to if you want to be like granular blade is new line. That's right. It's true. It's true. um But yeah, I mean, there are there are so many. Not to mention, like, I would love a blind owl figure. But since the mega cocaine, you know cocaine. Do you want to build a snowman? I'd love to.
00:59:31
Speaker
But I mean, my dream wave from this movie would, in all honesty. No love for it for a Yukio figure? Oh, Yukio would be nice. Well, I mean, we have Negasonic, so we'd love Yukio to go with her. um I always love that it's just, hi Yukio. Hi Yukio. Hi, Wade. My dream would be the Wolverine montage. Oh, God. Would just be every single one, the the old man Logan. Patch. Patch.
01:00:01
Speaker
age of apocalypse, just everyone from that, Cavalryne, just give me every single one from that, especially the brand new. Shatter star, you get a shatter star in there. Cavalryne, they wouldn't even have to do much other than just a head, because they already have the ah the tank top and jeans. I mean, you might have to bulk the body out a little bit. He's he's a little bit bulkier than Jackman, I think. He's a little more jacked than Jackman.
01:00:25
Speaker
Yes. How about, how about Vanessa and get a Vanessa figure? bes Yeah. I mean, there's there's a, there's a ton of like core Deadpool characters that would make Shatterstar. Yeah. Shatterstar, Vanessa, blind, al Peter, Peter, Peter, Peter pool. I mean, I still want a like, if we're getting, we're getting crazy and we're going real blue sky. I still would love a defender and a yellow, yellow cab like and a Deadpool to go with them.
01:00:54
Speaker
Yeah. That'd be great. Like that would be he's happy. We got Colossus because that cost looks great. It does. And it's got the two, it's got the two rules. So he's got, he's got the little, the little X-Men handbook and you can read the two rules. It says, it says don't kill anyone ever and label everything in the refrigerator. You can actually read it on there, which is amazing. The rules like they got the, um, the, uh, the,
01:01:20
Speaker
whatever DPI that they're printing with now, like they can do stuff like that. like Even like on the front of the the little book, you can actually see like the Xavier School for for gifted mute like gifted mutants. like you could like they They can actually print that tiny now, which is bonkers. But in the meantime, while I wait for everything, I've just been rocking with my my custom movie Wolverine. I threw the Hugh Jackman head on that new astonishing X-Men body and I i just dunked him in some hot water and pulled the arms off so that way I could get the ah the shoulder pads off. So this is this has been permanently just kind of a fix to my death. Pretty perfect. while i wait While I wait for the real one to come. But um yeah, I mean, I'm just, I'm i'm excited. i I love the movie figures. So this is just opens up the door for like so many more
01:02:16
Speaker
Um, you know, but so much more heartbreak and waiting, but also potential for, for more, more figures. Um, you know, I would, I would, the one, the biggest priority for me coming out of this, I'd have to say, uh, just because who knows if we'll ever see him again as gambit, but I would love a one-off, you know, cha andiated him he was just, he was just perfect. So yeah, we charged the car, not a single word.
01:02:45
Speaker
he He waited, he waited so long for this to happen and and finally got a chance to do it. And it's almost, it's almost bittersweet, right? Cause it's like, Oh, what could have been like, so My wife was like, he's going to die first, isn't he? That was the first thing we kept thinking was like, he's totally going to die first, isn't he? He's just going to get shot or killed. Apparently they're all but if, if you, you know, if you remember from the end of the rumor is they all made it. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. So when, when Deadpool at the end of, at the end credits, when when X 23 is there.
01:03:22
Speaker
So when he's back on the TVA for the end credits, apparently- Channing Tatum's on the screens? Yeah, we'll have to wait until, you know, we can see it again or um you'll get it at home because the cam footage is like really blurry and, you know, I don't want to support that nonsense. But um somebody said that you can see in one of the screens, ah Gambit like returning home. So maybe Maybe it's not one and done for him. Maybe he'll be back. He was so good. And the accent he threw on was just. oh It was it was a lot of this. It was there was a lot of this. It was so good. Yeah. Yeah, it's just but what was that lie? I think I was born ready out of my dad's dick or something. Yeah. Yeah. But I that whole that whole scene, you know, that's yeah.
01:04:20
Speaker
I think overall, um you know ah lots to be excited about. So lots of fun toys, um lots of fun future you know Marvel appearances from these two. i I can't wait. I honestly, I hope some of the characters from like early MCU and like even like Guardians of the Galaxy, like I hope Chris Pratt comes back. Because just thinking of like Chris Pratt and Ryan Reynolds like as those two characters like playing off each other in a scene somewhere in Secret Wars,
01:04:50
Speaker
You know, like like it's just there's so many. Well, they did say Star Lord will return. So yes, they did. Yeah. He's chilling with his grandpa. So his grandpa is pretty old, though. I mean, you know, how long is he going to be able to chill with his grandpa? <unk>s He's going to make every second count, Joey. Every second. And you got you got Guardians 2.0, though. Yep. Yep. But even like Deadpool and Rocket,
01:05:16
Speaker
Like just oh man, like just what a team up. There's so many. and And you said you said the big one before, like I have been dying for Hugh Jackman and um Mark Ruffalo. Like Hulk and Wolverine, like, oh, my God, like. It gives this gives me hope that maybe we'll get to see that like just once, like for real men in Deadpool team up Tom Holland and Deadpool. I mean, come on, like.
01:05:44
Speaker
um Tom Holland's brother was was one of the was one he was one of the Deadpools and and one last thing about that that we talked about the Deadpool core but that I didn't realize that was a single shot that fight at the end with like through the bus apparently that was legit a single shot um like execution rest with obviously with like CGI but like added but like the actual like them going into the bus and like through the bus and out the back that was that was a one a single shot situation so I'm so I'm just so excited to see this again I want to talking about it for an hour makes me want to just like go back to the theater and watch it again but also yes but also maybe get one of those popcorn buckets yes they're all sold out everywhere unfortunately yeah popcorn buckets drink holders I can't I can't defile Wolverine's head

Oh yes tell me yeah. It's thing is huge. You can eat popcorn out of an HR Geiger xenomorph head. I don't know which is more disturbing that or the dead or reaching into Wolverine's game. Still Dune.
