Okay. no okay They added a person just... that Cole Young was added by the the film people to be like the audience's perspective of the tournament, which it was a failed fucking idea.
Speaker: um Apparently, now the new the new person that's going to be the protagonist in the new one will be Johnny Cage, Carl Urban from The Boys.
Speaker: Carl Urban? Is that Johnny Cage? Yeah.
Speaker: I don't see that. He's not a pretty boy. A lot of people aren't seeing that. us you know man but He's not a pretty boy like Johnny Cage. Well, they're they're kind of going older, Johnny Cage.
Speaker: Like, after Cassie Cage, Johnny Cage, like, you know, way past the marriage, but he isn't he they haven't met fucking Sonya, so you can't... Like, their timeline is kind of fucked up.
Speaker: Their scorpion is the best. the The opening scene from the first one... Get over here. Yeah, the the yeah yeah the opening scene. <unk>s got to gear it up The guy who played Sub-Zero.
Speaker: No, no, the guy played Scorpion. I love that actor. I love that actor. well Yeah, he played in Shogun. He played in Shogun.
Speaker: Something else, too. He was like a Yakuza dude, I think. Yeah, he was also ah the dad in The Wolverine. He was the the son of the old guy, but the dad of the girl in the the Wolverine.
Speaker: Okay. But he was, out ah I'm thinking it was a John Wick, maybe? I don't know. Is he also John Wick? haven't watched it. thought he was the father ah ah John, the girl who is the Japanese ah continental host or whatever.
Speaker: The big fight scene with all the glass cases and shit with all the armor in it and stuff. That dude's a great actor. Yeah, yeah, got definitely a good actor. Actually, do both of them, the one the guy who plays ah Sub-Zero was a great actor, too.
Speaker: That fight scene was the best fight scene in that whole movie, that opening fight scene. It was a good open. Isn't that where the the woman's going down to get water? Oh, he goes down to get the water, comes back. in love Yeah, family slaughtered.
Speaker: Yeah, i was a great movie. I liked that id like that adaptation. It's a video game. The lore can be changed how you want. Well, see, now, ah if you haven't heard of it about that one, then I'm sure you didn't hear about this.
Speaker: um The new trailer for, or there's been teaser trailers for the new Street Fighter movie. Now, 50 Cent is playing Bolrog in Street Fighter.
Speaker: I think I see that. Do you remember the game Street Fighter? Yeah, isn't Bullrog the gorilla dude or anything? No, Bullrog's the boxer. um I believe Momoa is going to be in that one, too. I think he's going to play Blanca.
Speaker: The big green monster. That's who I was thinking of. Who is it they got to play Hondo? E-Hondo. Who's that? E-Honda. E-Honda.
Speaker: um I don't know. He's the one. The one you tried to do with the fast hands. Yeah. you go That was the dumbest dude. You could spam somebody to record with that and they could never get up. That's the dumbest goddamn move.
Speaker: Well, i mean, Chun-Li had the same thing, only with her leg. Yeah, you're right. Benji says, now let's talk about this new Silent Hill movie.
Speaker: You know, Silent Hill was actually based on what it is. What's that? yeah Silent Hill is based off a place not very far from us.
Speaker: Yeah, I think it's in ah Kentucky. No, it's in Pennsylvania. thought it was the Kentucky coal mine that's still burning. Nope, it's a Pennsylvania coal mine that's still burning under the ground.
Speaker: And it was... ah that They say some people say it was a coal mine. Some people, there's all kind of paranormal theories on it or whatever. But ah yeah, you walk on that place and you can see through the cracks in the ground. Like, like it's almost like lava through the ground.
Speaker: Margo, you're on fire tonight. Centralia, Pennsylvania. Good job. What I miss, Homers? Not much. Just us talking some dumb shit. ah Talking about not holiday movies. Yeah.
Speaker: ah
Speaker: those are amazing for on Aside from that, ah the only other major movie announcement that I've i've been kind of following um is the new, they're bringing back Endgame, because that ain't a money grab, just to add a new end scene or end credit scene to it that ties it into Doomsday or whatever.
Speaker: Bulldogs in the house. We're shaking up. Yeah, I just heard that one today. They want to add a post-credit scene that shows how it started.
Speaker: Yeah, so let's go fucking pay to watch another three-hour movie that we already saw for a whole fucking two-minute scene that you're tacking on to the end. they I never heard they were goingnna re-release it in theaters.
Speaker: yeah I thought they were just going to digitally alter it for the streams. No, they're re-releasing in theaters. So you won't even be able to see it. You can stream the regular version on Disney Plus or whatever.
Speaker: But to get that extra little two-minute scene, you're going to have to go pay $20. No, you don't. You just got to wait for it to be altered on Disney Plus.
Speaker: It'd probably for you. Go ahead. guys Before it even hits Disney+, plus you know some Argentinian or Brazilian dude is going to leak it across YouTube. What
Speaker: the hell was I going to say? I fucking lost it. Ready Player Two. I remember Ready Player One. I thought that was a fun game. fun movie. They were making a Ready Player Two, apparently.
Speaker: Did you watch Ready Player One? I've never watched any of those. It was solid. I liked it. It was a fun movie to watch. Completely ridiculous. It fun movie to watch. So, ah we were talking about... Oh, oh we are hold on.
Speaker: You were talking about Disney Plus and MCU earlier. Did you hear that ah Fantastic Four is the worst ah Disney Plus debut in Disney Plus history for the MCU? No.
Speaker: Yeah, I knew about that when I fucking seen just the previews of the movie. lincoln and That movie was terrible. Terrible. I didn't like it. um I wouldn't say terrible. I'd say okay at best.
Speaker: It was slow. It was dull. they had a good premise they had a great sit like to me the cinematography and the the world building on the outside you know was great you know very uh jetson z but the pedro pascal i think is a terrible fucking actor the dude who played you what
Speaker: you what I'm done with Pedro Pascal. I'm fatigued, man. He's in everything. He's garbage. Everything he's in, he's garbage. Dude, i no no or in he fucking sucked ass when he was in that other fucking movie playing opposite of Johnny, whatever, other that ah Gladiator 2. He fucking sucked ass. Everything Pedro Pascal has been in, he sucked nuts like a gay squirrel.
Speaker: Did you or did you not see The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent? The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent? No.
Speaker: Fucking great movie. Fucking great movie. lot of fun. Fun to watch. Didn't hate Pedro Pascal in that. And what I saw of it, I didn't see much. I just think after three episodes, I got bored with it. that The Last of Us, he was solid in that. Didn't hate him. I didn't watch any of that. I didn't watch the Stranger Things. then Like anything everybody talked too much about.
Speaker: He's not in Stranger Things. I don't know. I'm just saying. like It was like one of the movies that just got overhyped to me that I just didn't didn't want to watch. So you assume since everyone says how good it is, you don't want to watch it?
Speaker: Yep. You're fucking up. Stranger Things is solid, man. I love that show. Those kids are solid little actors, man. It's it's a good story.
Speaker: It's got good pacing. it It's a slow burn. It's a slow build. It's a crescendo at the end. And I'm telling you, man, it's the last season is coming out. First half's out. Second half comes out Christmas Day. Thank you that Christmas present, Duffer Brothers.
Speaker: Based on the Montauk project. Are you familiar with the Montauk project? I'm sure you are. yeah That's another reason why I didn't really like it. Because i know about all the Montauk projects. And I'm sure they're not going to leak whatever really happened.
Speaker: it's not It's not meant to be an exact recreation recre yeah recreation of the Montauk project. But that's what they based it on. I figured it was based on like the the Project Blue Beam. They had that series.
Speaker: You ever hear of that? No. There is a plot project, Blue Beam, that's our government. Oh, that I know. That I know. i didn't know there was a series.
Speaker: Yeah, they made a they made a series that supposedly goes into all the files, almost like an X-Files type shit. So I figured the Stranger Things thing was pretty much like that for the Montauk project.
Speaker: Again, it's just a base. The original title of the series was going to be Montauk. but they were afraid that uh yeah i don't remember exactly what the beef was but uh they changed it to stranger things dude it's a solid series man it it ties up nice no i can't think of a single unresolved deal i mean you get you get invested in the characters man they're fun try it out way i try that one The last series series that I really enjoyed out of anything that like kind of grabbed me was um The Y-Files is the shit. Yes, it is. Hecklefish.
Speaker: Hecklefish is the shit. Oh, I had to hide Hecklefish. Snowflake's trying to kill him. Oh, you're serious. You got a Hecklefish? I can't leave him out because the king's...
Speaker: Yeah, I got the official hecklefish fucking talking plushie. Listen, let's listen, ah listen.
Speaker: water dude i wanted the official hecklefish tennis shoes when they had em I didn't know they had those. Oh, yeah. They had to they they were like ah the old Chuck Taylors. What's up, Sid?
Speaker: My guest is Marco Torres, one of my friends, and a very funny motherfucker, and a solid fucking stand-up cat. Mandy, what's going on, girl? What's up? Freak. Why follow Spock, guys? Benji, couldn't agree more. Heck of fish in fucking way. You're right, man.
Speaker: Yep. And don't forget Gertie. Gertie likes to dance. Gertie likes to dance. I love Hucklefish. I love Hucklefish, dude.
Speaker: I love that show. AJ's awesome, man. Yeah, yeah, he is. Is she going to have a new podcast that's called In the Basement?
Speaker: No. Yeah, he's going to be ah interviewing people. in the they've Actually, today I've seen his new studio layout, the basement layout and everything.
Speaker: yeah I don't see every last thing he does in order. Whatever pops up. I'm on a kick lately. I've been watching pretty much every last video that Patrick CC puts out. He's solid. They're fun little watches. They're not super long.
Speaker: and that I don't know what it is about his voice. It's soothing. And I feel good as I listen to him. And he says some of some of the weirdest shit, like, oh, what was the one? Just the way he pronounces words cracks me up.
Speaker: Some of the words he pronounces, it's hilarious. He sucked nuts with a gay squirrel.
Speaker: ah
Speaker: She just caught on to that. Gay squirrel.
Speaker: good oh so you are mo get So you wanted to talk about holiday movies. No, you didn't. Yeah. um ah Me and one of my hosts, Dino, the genetic marvel, we do a movie. Now we are we sit back. Hold on, hold on. You have a coast?
Speaker: So you have a show? you have a show Yeah, yeah the the movie Monday night. Why don't you tell us about it? I know, dummy, but they don't. Why don't you tell us about it?
Speaker: It's not so much like this. Me and Dino pretty much find a movie that we can both see for free, and we do our commentary on it. Kind of sort of like a maybe ah what that mystery science theater whatever. um we don't show that We don't show the movie because we'll get copyrighted.
Speaker: But, ah you know, we we pretty much give a little detailed what's going on. I try to pick something that he's never seen before. Apparently, horror to me and horror to most people are totally different.
Speaker: um Like, you know, what they find. like a lot of things to regular people are very different than a lot of things to you. ah But for instance, you know, we we did ah a Christmas movie. he He wanted to see a Christmas movie last week.
Speaker: And I'm more into a horror movie. But I was like, oh we can find we could find a balance there. So ah a great movie. I recommend it. It's called a Christmas Horror Story.
Speaker: um It's like an anthology. It's like three or four different stories that all culminate into one. And ah William Shatner kind of narrates it.
Speaker: Anybody who doesn't know where Shatner is, you're too young to be listening to the show. You've never watched Halloween. Exactly. um But ah the the main thing that I remembered of it, because I hadn't seen the movie in years.
Speaker: ah The main thing I remembered of it was that like this crazy Viking looking Santa Claus. And he's fighting these zombie elves. um And they're attacking him. and And like, it's crazy shit. And ah there's the the reindeer evil. And it's all like Grampus was taking over shit. And he's fighting all these people.
Speaker: But it has a real fucked up twist at the end. One of the other stories is this black couple. They go with their son out into the woods to go cut down a Christmas tree and what they lose their kid for a quick minute. And then the kid that they find looks like their kid, but it's not their kid.
Speaker: um That one's kind of fucked up. um Then there's another one where there's a girl that was, uh, killed in a school and these other kids are going kind of ghost hunting in that school and the girl possesses the girl that was in the ghost hunting thing and some crazy shit pops off with that um and then there is a grandpa's one also in the beginning and then you find out that how all these are tied together Like the the the guy who's in the black couple was the police officer. Hold on, hold Don't give away the ending. not Well, don't don't spoil it if people want to watch it. Oh, no. No, it's not. I might have seen that. Did the end of the movie happen in like a big mansion?
Speaker: No. but Okay. I think that's the one that had Hopper from Stranger Things in it. The end of the movie, it ended in a shopping mall.
Speaker: Oh.
Speaker: But ah it it is a very, very good movie. Never lose your kid or significant other in a horror movie. You're dead if that happens. That's right. Rule number one about Dungeons and Dragons. Never split up the party.
Speaker: Rule number one about Dungeons and Dragons. You don't play Dungeons and Dragons. piss on you. You're such a fucking... ah you Why do you dislike things that are good?
Speaker: da
Speaker: ah guys It's like Dungeons and Dragons to me is like um like drinking games. Why do I need a reason to drink? but Why do I have to spin a cup or a bottle to see if I can drink something that's right in front of me?
Speaker: Why do I need to find out what happened? What? That comparison makes no sense to me. Because Mandy says rocks.
Speaker: in g rock ah
Speaker: so just I was just never into those games. like I thought the premise was good, but to sit there and have somebody be like, okay, let me roll this dice. Now pretend that you're walking through a forest and you threw the the ancient bottle of widow's nut on the the squirrel's face. and and And it will open up the chest of many fruits or whatever. Yeah.
Speaker: like yeah Yeah, I don't need um that. I'm in the night so far right there, Britt. That's my co-host. Good job.
Speaker: More into horror movies. Yeah, lot horror movies got old, too. No, this comment. Go ahead and read it out loud. Hashtag. am jealous of Marco's tits.
Speaker: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. ah like that and The only people who hate doing D&D have no imagination or forethought. That's not accurate with this character, Mandy. Most of his life and beliefs are based in imagination.
Speaker: Yes, yes. I thoroughly watched the Muppet Babies so episode by episode, season by season growing up.
Speaker: I love the Muppet Babies. I thought it was better than the Muppets. ah Yeah, I did too. Come on, be nice to my guest. He's a good friend of mine little good guy. His opinion doesn't count. He has man breasties.

Speaker: Japanese folks would not make a Christmas movie. No. no o no what I don't know. If you look at the Japanese, if you look into their traditions, Japan has adopted Christmas, American traditional Christmas, and they eat KFC.
Speaker: Yeah, I know that. yeah Like mad KFC on Christmas. like They go through a bunch, a shit ton of KFC on Christmas.
Speaker: Women want you? I want to be you. You ain't lying, Jedi. But I'll never have your sharp wit with the fucking hashtags.

Speaker: That's a good one. That's a good one. I liked... um That and The Christmas Story. Don't shoot your eye out. Don't shoot your eye out, kid.
Speaker: I actually have. There was a recent
Speaker: there was a recent movie with Mel Gibson called Fat Man. Did you see that? I've heard of it. I didn't see it. I've heard of it. That might be a Christmas movie.
Speaker: you guys watch it There's supposed to be one. It's called The Red One. And it's a supposed to be The Rock is of Santa Claus's Hitman or something like that.
Speaker: And like Santa ends up missing... No, no, no. You got it wrong. you got it wrong It's called Red One. You're right. Red One. The Rock is an elf.
Speaker: But they're called... yeah I can't remember what their team is called, but they're like ah they're like special forces elves. Right. They're like his protection detail.
Speaker: It was fucking stupid. You seen it? It was fucking stupid. ah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. yeah that's the like I haven't seen it, so I don't know. um I know ah the green one or the mean one I thought was kind of stupid.
Speaker: I was very disappointed in the grinch that the Grinch remake. It was called The Mean One. ah Didn't see that's it The guy who actually plays Art the Clown plays the Grinch.
Speaker: That's Terrifier? Yeah. Still haven't seen them. You haven't seen the Terrifier? Terrifier 3 Christmas movie. terr fire three is a christmas movie you told me i should watch it i'd love him yeah yeah i think at the halloween party you showed up as art the clown i had no one fucking idea who you were yeah um but yeah did he that one was fucking stupid the what that that movie red one was fucking terrible so that that grinch thing the mean one you said uh-huh is that part of the uh the pooh verse

Speaker: Yeah. There's a Bambi one. There's a Bambi one. That one, yes. Three are in the same universe. I wondered if that one would be too because their former kids love the properties turned bad.
Speaker: um Well, they did a Steamboat Willie also.
Speaker: Yeah. It doesn't help, piece of trivia. Steamboat Willie was the very first animated movie, I think. Very first they first projected animated movie. was the very first Mickey Mouse.
Speaker: Yeah?
Speaker: I think it was the very first animated projected film. No, it wasn't the first animated projected but he was the very first Mickey Mouse.
Speaker: Steamboat Willie Horror. Yeah, 2025 is coming out. but
Speaker: He doesn't look like that anymore. No, not at all.
Speaker: I don't like... mean, honestly, for having story already there and the idea and the years and years that these stories have sat on people, you would have thought these people would have came up with better movies than this.
Speaker: Like, you know, they've been waiting for years for these copyrights to go up. And the only one I really, truly liked was The Blood and Honey. I liked The Winnie the Poohs. I liked... Like, both of them, they were fucking... I mean, it was just...
Speaker: You know, a good idea. that It was cheesy. You know, they didn't have that much money. But now, like, the mean one and the Popeye one, ah just didn't like. That Popeye one was awfully bad.
Speaker: it was terrible, but I kind of liked it. ah Just because of how bad it was. Now, I like the Robin Williams Popeye. Do you remember the ri of Robin Williams movie with Popeye? reduce that Sure do. Shelly Duvall with Olive Oil.
Speaker: and uh brian doyle murray uh bill's brother was um wimpy bludo was uh barrett barrett harkonnen's son the nephew or the nephew of barrett harkonnen what was his name uh and who's the other one um the grandpa was uh a really uh famous old actor uh oh man my mind is not what it used to be gang virgin merritt no wasn't burgess meredith um yeah No, no, no, no no

Speaker: Post-production, add-ins. i mean That was CGI before CGI was CGI. It was fucking incredible. It was mind-bending. I just didn't care for the story. See, I liked the story.

Speaker: Yeah. Well, if you watch them all together, it ends up in that last... You know, it it ends up on Christmas, so... oh And then, like I said, I think that new ah Christmas Horror Story is going to be the new the new traditional thing because I've watched it so far too two, maybe three years in a row.
Speaker: I never got to watch the whole thing like I did the other night, but ah it's always you know I've always caught bits and pieces every year of it. And that's the Shatner one. Yeah.
Speaker: but did you ah Did you see... the hell is it called? a It had... um The guy who plays ah Hopper in Stranger Things. He's the Red Guardian in Thunderbolts.
Speaker: Okay.
Speaker: He's a pissed off Santa Claus. It goes on a tear. It's like a... know what you're talking about. Dino was just telling me about it. It's called... Oh, he goes in and like somebody is robbing a house or something and he goes in and Santa Claus and like totally beats the fuck out of everybody.
Speaker: Yeah, man, it's wild.
Speaker: David Harbour is his name. It's called Violent Night. Violent Night. Yeah, Violent Night. Yep.

Speaker: It's funny. I can't remember who plays Santa in that one. It's not important. Did you see the movie called Krabbers with a K? I've seen like five different Krabbers, man.
Speaker: This one's fairly recent. That's the one I think I was getting confused with. That whole thing takes place like a rich mansion. Yeah, yeah, yeah. um the the the The weird thing is, though, but most of them all are the same um that I've noticed because the the one part of the anthology in ah the Christmas Horror Story It starts off like this family goes to the rich aunt's house and it's a kind of a mansion.
Speaker: And ah like du it's the aunt of the dad and the family are just a bunch of assholes there. And they fuck up something and the aunt kicks them out. And they break something in the aunt's house and that's where the grandpa comes after the family.
Speaker: That's the one thinking of. That's one I liked a lot. Well, no, ah because The Grandpa's, that's the same premise of the new movie, The Grandpa's, that was just all Grandpa's.
Speaker: Like, it was damn near the same. Like, every Grandpa's movie I've seen, you know, a family goes to a rich family member's house. There's a big man. From 2015. Krampus 2015. That's the one.
Speaker: Okay, yeah. and And that's the same year that ah oh Christmas Horror Story came out, too.
Speaker: Well, you know how it goes. Studios have ah like spies. Right, right, right. For instance, okay, Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner and Tombstone came out within months of each other.
Speaker: Right. There wasn't Tombstone. Oh, MGM's doing a... watched Tombstone and Wyatt Earp. Well, we better do one, too, and over here. It's stupid.
Speaker: Scrooge! Fuck yeah, man. Great flick. I love Bill Murray's asshole pride. He is such an amazing asshole. I strive to be that level of asshole someday. That Bill Murray's Scrooge was great.
Speaker: When they want to staple the fucking hamster to the hamster's head. Just staple one. Yeah.
Speaker: There was something else in that one. It was... ah The chick with the headbutts. Yeah, that's ah that's a Deadpool's dream girl, right?
Speaker: You're going to stay here with me and your're zibaba your ring and your something else, whoever? No, that wasn't her. I didn't think it was.
Speaker: What was that girl's name? the the The one you're talking about ah actually played, I think, Lois Lane in one of the movies. Oh, shit, that's caren my that's Carol Kane.
Speaker: That's Carol Kane. The blonde was in, the the crazy, goofy blonde was the one who was headbutting people. Yeah, Carol Kane is her name.
Speaker: Rizzy hair. Yep. And Stripes was an awesome fucking movie, Mandy. Damn right it was. Damn right it was. That's a fact, Jack.

Speaker: Kevin Costner is a hitter and miss for me. I don't like him in everything. Mr. Brooks, my favorite Kevin Costner movie. Mine was Revenge. Did you see it?
Speaker: Mr. Brooks, no. don't think I saw that. You never see Revenge. Maybe not. That was a... It shows in the beginning, Kevin Costner was in the military, and they show him shipping a bunch of old-school antique weapons to a friend of his in some South American country.
Speaker: And he's about to get out the military, so his friend tells him to come. out of her Huh?
Speaker: Kevin Costner was playing Oliver North? No, no, no. But ah he goes to visit his friend, who's like this big-time... ah a big-time cartel dude down in in South America, and the guy takes him in. He treats him like his brother, you know, all hooks up.
Speaker: Well, then he meets the guy's wife, and Kevin Costner starts messing around with the dude's wife, and the dude finds out about it and goes hunting Costner and the wife.
Speaker: out there all way It's a great movie, dude. Tin Cuff is another one. I really liked him in Tin Cuff. um i'm trying to figure out what trying to remember who played the the cartel guy in that movie of revenge
Speaker: we're talking holiday quick traditional and non-traditional uh get back on the task sucker revenge played by do you do it can't be him it's from 1990 anthony clinn anthony klinn Yeah, yeah, yeah. Lame, lame, lame. He plays an awesome bad guy in there, man.

Speaker: there was another irish one of go Another non-traditional ah holiday movie that has become a thing for me, of Eight Crazy Nights.
Speaker: That was one that I ah tried. It's just, I don't know. When he's running up in the car and he's like, oh, baby, I'll miss you. You want me to stick it in your tailpipe?
Speaker: Oh, God. I was telling that slow typer.

Speaker: It kind of spans different holidays, but yeah, uncle I haven't seen Uncle Buck in ever, dude. But i have seen a pan-chamber movie.
Speaker: um I have seen a pancake almost as big as Uncle Buck's last week. Like, literally, me and Ray went out to this place called Breakfast at Tiffany's in PA, and the pancake was so big, like, I had to take it home in a pizza box.
Speaker: Why didn't you just eat it I tried. i ate one slice. It was that fucking thick, dude. I mean, it was great. It was like they just gave you a cake.

Speaker: Did you take pictures? Yeah, Ray got a bunch of pictures on her on her page. Dude, I mean, it was fucking huge. And for for the price, oh go page i can I think it was like $12 for this thing.
Speaker: And it was well worth it. Well worth it, I think I got out. probably don't know if you don't do the Elf yet.
Speaker: that Elf wasn't... Elf was okay at first. Like, when it first came out, and then it just got played out.
Speaker: That's true about a lot of things. i mean, it's good the first time. well some Some movies would I can watch daily, some movies. Right. Well, that distinguishes the the the good movies from the the movies.
Speaker: You know, so a lot of them are good the first time around, but you don't want to watch them again. Whereas there's other ones you can just watch over and over and over.
Speaker: He's a big wrestling fan. he says Santa's sleigh with Goldberg was awesome. I've seen that. It was okay.
Speaker: I have a hard time trusting his opinion on movies because he firmly believes Jar Jar Binks is the greatest character in Star Wars history. Oh, who the fuck?
Speaker: Glick. Oh, yeah, Glick, you got me fucked up now. but united states he really I didn't know the dude, but I've heard nothing but good things. But then you said that and that kind of ruined it.

Speaker: Oh, that ain't no fucking thing. I'm kicking and freaking out and shit. I don't know, man. i'm I'm having the troubles. I'm having the troubles. ah There's at least one other Christmas that I was thinking of that fell off.
Speaker: Did we do Silent Night Deadly Night yet? Yeah, that was the first one we started talking about. okay No, it wasn't the first one. it was that weird one I ever heard of. oh yeah Yeah, you're right. you're right yeah how about You mentioned a Christmas Story.
Speaker: right That's very, very Christmas, but not necessarily traditional. I personally would consider traditional, but it's so mainstream. Well, you do know, like, in the beginning of the Santa Claus and the Santa Claus 2. Did you like those?
Speaker: No, I didn't like those at all. I didn't even watch those. Yeah, I didn't even watch those. I wasn't a fan of those. But going back to the Christmas story, the original, the one we were talking about, you do, like, if you listen to the first maybe five, ten minutes, the opening of that, that's not a Christmas story.
Speaker: It's about Bacchanalia and Bacchus.
Speaker: They say it in the beginning. A Christmas story? Yeah, you'll shoot your eye out? Yeah. Yeah. Listen to the narration in the beginning, and they they talk about Bacchanalia and Bacchus.
Speaker: Those were the original pagan holidays that Christmas was turned into.
Speaker: Bacchus C. They actually played the bully Scott Farkas. Yeah, Scott Farkas with the Nightmare on Elm Street Part 7, I believe.
Speaker: His name is Zach Ward.
Speaker: it doesn't anything about Bacchus. You got to watch the beginning. i like when When we get done here...
Speaker: Okay, he's the bully Scott Farkas. What's that got to do with Bacchus? Well, Scott Farkas has nothing to do with this. Scott Farkas, I just said, was in Nightmare on Elm Street Part 7, years down the road. But in the beginning narration of that movie, it is about Bacchus and Bacchanalia and not Christmas.
Speaker: You know, everybody takes it as a Christmas story, a Christmas movie. Saturnalia. Saturnalia. Saturnalia was it my failures Christmas. Thank you, thank you ah Glick. I was trying to get to that one.
Speaker: chris Kurt Russell was Santa Claus 2 also. I didn't watch any of those. the whole i believe I believe those were Hallmark piano movies or something like that.
Speaker: That's going to drive me nuts now. Because I could have swore it was Bacchanalia, not Citrinalia. but Citronella does sound
Speaker: to do to do to do
Speaker: Opening of Christmas. So tell me more about the whole podcast thing.
Speaker: Christmas story. um it was just It was just a line. That was said in the beginning of that movie when they're panning out on the the city and they're showing everybody doing their Christmas shopping and the shit in the window right before they're going to go see the Santa Claus in the beginning.
Speaker: Okay, I see. Figurative. The word bacchanalia in a figurative use, figuratively use, Is any riotous, drunken party or scene of wild abandon?
Speaker: And he's talking about that rush to get into the... What was the story? gi No, not Gimbal's. What was the story they were trying go to get into? Not Macy's. The other one. might have been Gimbal's.
Speaker: Gimbal's is the one from Elf. Let's see. The Christmas Story opening sequence. Well, anyway, the story they talk about in that movie is the very first Christmas parade or Thanksgiving parade, brother.
Speaker: Let's see. wonder if this has a transcript on it. Did you ever go to the Christmas story house here in Cleveland? No, but that's not the original house.
Speaker: It was moved.
Speaker: But it's the same house. It's in a different location. Yeah, but I mean, you know. That's why they read the street, Cleveland Street, because it was shown to Cleveland.
Speaker: What was the story the Christmas story? Higby's. I don't think that's correct. Higby's is correct for this for the movie. Higby's is correct for movie. up This is ah holiday related. The first Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Speaker: Yeah, fuck me, it is Gimbel's in Philadelphia. The very first. Macy's Parade is the longest running. Right. But they were war four years behind Gimbel's.
Speaker: I couldn't buy Kurt Russell as Santa Claus. that That was my problem. He's ah too young at the time, or it just looks too young anyway. The Christmas Chronicles here, this one.

Speaker: and John. Well, it was called it the ghost movie with Dudley Moore and John Lithgow.
Speaker: It's John Lithgow. Yeah. Well, whatever. Is that Christmas movie? Are

Speaker: I never watched Polar Express, but I won't i won't ever watch it now. i don't click on anything with Tom Hanks in it. Yeah. So you mentioned Charlie Brown Christmas.
Speaker: What? Shh. That is a Christmas classic old but Sunday night special Christmas movies like the yeah Charlie Brown Christmas tree, Charlie Brown Christmas.
Speaker: What was your favorite one of those? I always loved um the Richard Stole Christmas. That was always my favorite. my My by far favorite old school traditional Christmas. like and it It still plays every once in a long while, but has to be Emmett Otter's Jug Band Christmas.
Speaker: What fuck? You've never seen Emmett Otter's? remember. i want I never watched that. 1977. The river bottom name mary man
Speaker: Riverbottom Gang. Riverbottom Nightmare Gang. They were a heavy metal group in there.
Speaker: That's funny. You know what want to watch for real? but Let's get a petition going. I want to see that live show that Bill Murray's character was trying to fucking produce in Scrooge. I want to see that movie.
Speaker: ha You know what mean?
Speaker: tell Tell me you weren't howling, laughing, when he shows his promo. You gotta make a feeling they have to watch it. I mean, dude, well, that promo was fucking hilarious.
Speaker: Starts like like it ends with a nuclear explosion and shit.
Speaker: You know what's kind of a non-traditional... a a non-traditional holiday movie um it's kind of a it's kind of a tearjerker but it's one that has you think it's called uh something of a spotless mind um it has jim carrey
Speaker: the never it It takes place over a span of years. Yeah. But ah christmas Christmas was a main point in it. I watched it one time ever. I don't know.
Speaker: I didn't love it. it It was one of them ones that like, especially when I was going through some shit with ah with a former relationship, like that, that was one of them ones that just had you sitting there like, fuck.
Speaker: Just fuck. Oh, no. I wish I could do that. ah Funny story. Quick funny story. To be as funny. um so With my ex-wife still, we were married.
Speaker: And we watched the movie The Breakup with Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. And as we were watching it, we just kept kind of side-eyeing each other like, oh my God.
Speaker: We were watching ourselves on TV. We were way better. I kind of i had a few of them moments with a few exes too. ah thats why moving be all the way through I mean, oh my God, it was fucked up.
Speaker: As I was watching, I was like, oh no, I was right. This is not right. Have you ever seen the movie War of the Roses? Love it.
Speaker: Oh my God. Especially at the end, at the end when he just tries to grab her hand, they're both dying and she just knocks his fucking hand away. Yeah, yeah, that's my ex. That's my ex. That was me and my ex.
Speaker: Kathleen Turner is an awesome fucking actress, man. Yeah, and she played that part. Serial mom. Serial mom? Huh? You ever see Serial Mom?
Speaker: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did. She was the killer. Matthew Lillard and Ricky Lake are the kids. Yeah. Yeah, that's a great fucking movie.
Speaker: That's one I can watch at least one year. I haven't seen that in a year, dude. It's real great, dude. I looked it up and watched it with Sue. It was fan-fucking-tastic all over again. i love that movie.
Speaker: Did you watch the... Glick's still in here, I hope. ah Did you watch the Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas special? Yeah. I did not.
Speaker: So I remember Glick mentioning it. We talked last Friday about MCU. He said it was cute. It was good. but it was a nice family movie. It was spectacular. I mean, it it did have its nice little points.
Speaker: I think the whole Kevin Bacon thing in there was stupid. um Well, that alert I don't have to watch it now. Kevin Bacon is a twist. but But I mean, that it was okay. It was nothing to write home about. I mean, it was no, no, it didn't add anything to the whole narrative.
Speaker: um We all knew Quill was Mantis's brother. So, I mean, that was the big reveal.
Speaker: Spoiler alert. ah If you didn't know that Quill was Mantis's brother, then you are an idiot. well fuck you here's one of the questions uh i asked work last week uh are there any characters you've seen in the mcu that you uh never heard of before and you're first introduced to and like turned on to or whatever um i was a big comic book buff when i was a kid so it's it's kind of hard um the century they kind of was like
Speaker: I see more of a the mess-ups or the changes in the in the characters, if anything else. um The one I didn't know... They're not as many mess-ups or changes. They're like hardcore fans that know the whole story all the way through. Deserve a surprise here and there.
Speaker: Well, see, my my big thing is like with Isaiah Bradley. That's one I didn't know about, and I think they should they should develop that story more. Because Isaiah Bradley... That that's a that's a And he was in the comic books.
Speaker: I had to look it up. They did have a whole run with Isaiah Bradley. He was actually the first Captain America. After they... first test set.
Speaker: Right, right. Well, they take had him out there. He fought the Red Guardian and he fought Omega Red and he fought a couple other people. That's why they... Was he in the first Battle Starek?
Speaker: What? Was he in Star Spangled Spandex? Yeah. Really? Yeah. That's why cool I didn't know. I'm embarrassed, Marco. I'm embarrassed.
Speaker: I did not know that. I'm embarrassed. um Yeah. I never even heard of him.
Speaker: Well, that's see and that's my problem with them swapping out characters. like when they wanted to When they were talking to float in the idea about changing Superman to a black guy. Now, no they they have a black Superman. There was actually three black Superman.
Speaker: You know, there was comic book runs. Three black Superman with their own backstory, their own stories, which were good stories. But instead, they wanted to take...
Speaker: No, Steel is not one. Shaquille O'Neal was terrible. um Well, the man of Steel was in the books. After Death of Superman, was one of the small aspects of Superman.
Speaker: great Right, right, right. But, I mean, just the Shaquille O'Neal one, it was dumb. But these were like actual Superman stories. Like there was like ah black people from Krypton.
Speaker: And dude they had great stories. Actually, one of them was ah modeled after Barack Obama. um But, yeah, they had their own stories. So why not? So they're not classic stories from back in the Golden Age and Silver Age comics.
Speaker: No, no, no, no. These were within the past maybe 20 to 30 years. Okay. But DC has their multiverse.
Speaker: Right.
Speaker: but But my whole point was is instead of taking Clark Kent and making him black, why not use the black Superman in his story?
Speaker: You know, if you want to tell the story, tell the story. I mean, that would just be like putting Tom Hanks as fucking of the the Black Panther. Why would you do that?
Speaker: Well, first off, Panthers are not found in Africa.
Speaker: Panthers are South American cats. Let's just start there. um Well, that's why they have to... they ask out walk
Speaker: Let me ask you a question. Why do you hate black people? Why do I hate black people? Never mind. I'm just being an idiot. Black kids are maybe black.
Speaker: don't know if you... I can understand. Okay, to make a twist out of it, it doesn't bother me, really. i mean, it's first off, it's not a real person anyway. Nope.
Speaker: it didn't bother me. It wouldn't bother me. Like people were losing their fucking minds about ah Shabal, Shabal, Shabal, whatever it was. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that was terrible.
Speaker: yeah that That was terrible. They didn't even touch that story. They didn't even touch that story. But the multiverse, dude, it's a different Shabal from a different universe where she didn't have Norrin Rad maybe.
Speaker: Well, no, no, no. If you watch the story, they they literally swapped up that story. They they took the Noren Rad story and instead of showing up... Show us.
Speaker: Instead of... go wow wow
Speaker: Instead of doing the Shia LaBalle story, which there was one, or doing the Noren Rad story... It was only three book art. It was only three book art. But it was a good story.
Speaker: No, I think it was the like the art that they used for Fantastic Four was terrible. And then and the look. Absolutely. Couldn't agree more. I'm talking about the books and the books was solid.
Speaker: Yeah. Well, yeah, the books is totally different. the I'm talking the movie. They they shit the bed on.
Speaker: Absolutely. dude People, I was really looking forward to seeing it because it was getting such high reviews. Fans were even like, oh, man, we love it we loved it. We loved We loved it. I liked it.
Speaker: It was okay at best to me. But I'll tell you the truth. It got so slow, I fell asleep for a good 20 minutes. At least. The Jessica Alba fucking the the Fantastic Four, that one, but the original, not the original original, the Fox originals, but the ones that we grew up with. Jessica Alba. um Those were so far the best ones.
Speaker: The Fantastic Four and the Rise of the Silver Surfer. I don't like the way they did. They made Galactus a giant butthole in the sky. But, I mean, aside from that, you know, their Doom was better. Their the whole, you know. Wrong.
Speaker: Doom was only one in that fucking movie. Doom and so and Smoke Boy were the worst parts of the original Fantastic Four from Fox. Fuck those. Fuck books fuck them. but Fuck you.
Speaker: No, you're wrong. Doctor Doom has yet to be done right on film. Yet to be done right on film. And after seeing what they did with Galactus and that story, why no Ultimate Nullifier?
Speaker: Where's the Ultimate Nullifier? Well, that's what's going later with Franklin. so listen no ultimate nuifier is house The Listen to me. The very original Fantastic Four run that had Galactus in it.
Speaker: That's how Reed Richards stayed Earth with the ultimate nullifier. He didn't create it. He stole it from Galactus' ship and threatened him with it. Well, see, i if I recall right, it had something to do with ah Franklin, the kid, too.
Speaker: The kid ended up being the nullifier. her on be original because like yeah Let's see. Doctor Doom wasn't until, at the I think, um comic book number three, I think.
Speaker: And then it was a three or four book arc. ah It was called Galactus Cometh or something like that. Long story short, they used the ultimate nullifier to stop him.
Speaker: That's a fact. Even if if you're going to go into the whole lore of the original Fantastic Four, I mean, they already screwed up with Kang.
Speaker: Because Kang is Nathaniel Richards, which is Reed Richards' great-great-great-great-grandson. Not necessarily. Yeah, yeah. it's it's Well, that it's never been confirmed, Marco, but it's always been ambiguous. He's either a descendant of Richards, Reed Richards, or Dr. Doom.
Speaker: That's exactly what I was about to say. that's dr ru is so okay the new story that's coming out, or the leaks that have been coming out about the new Doomsday, is that whatever ever Steve Rogers did when he went back and was taking the Stones back and he stayed with Peggy,
Speaker: That caused an incursion which killed Doom's family. Now in Doom's timeline, he was married to Sue Storm and Franklin was his kid. So now he's going he's pulling a Wanda and he's going through the timelines to get his kid and his wife back.
Speaker: Which I hope he does because that means Pedro Pascal is out. Fuck him.
Speaker: Dude, Disney loves Pedro Pascal. They're not going to let him they're not going to let them go if there's top i've seen the revisions well m talkhola There's talk of John Krasinski, the maker.
Speaker: Ooh. Dude! That'd be awesome. The maker is awesome. That's a great character. I like kind of what they did with a who was the one who created Rocket? What the fuck was his name?
Speaker: Rocket Raccoon, the high evolutionary. Yeah, the I like the way they did the high evolutionary. yeah that That dude played a very good part. Yeah, that was that was real solid.
Speaker: For a few minutes. It was very limited with waltz more limited in the film. But I'll tell you what, um it not my favorite Guardians of the Galaxy, personally.
Speaker: But man, that movie was packed with emotion. Yeah, yeah. um One thing I didn't like, though, and ah ah I think they ruined it out of all the the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, Adam Warlock.
Speaker: They fucked Adam Warlock up so bad. Oh, my God. Why do you say that? Because if you watch if you read any of the comic books, I don't know the history, so I just want to know that.
Speaker: Yeah, I know that's a big part of the fucking story. You know, Adam Warlock was like one of the the quote unquote leaders who are going after Thanos to try to stop everything. And didn't he end up with the Infinity Gauntlet at the end of it all?
Speaker: Like ah Nebula had it for a quick minute and then ah he was supposed to have gotten it and like nobody was supposed to get it after him.
Speaker: said that That I'm not sure of with Adam Warlock. I thought you were going to Adam Warlock was messed up because his character arc takes a long time. Right. He's made an adult body with mega powers, but he's got the mind of the basically a newborn.
Speaker: He has to learn what good and bad is He has to learn no empathy. That was a really interesting arc. Do you need a maxi pad? No. Me or Marco?
Speaker: And I'm trying to figure out why. And why. Who and who and why? oh did it Yeah, I just stop wasn't a fan of Adam Warlock or the way they portrayed him or anything.
Speaker: I mean, they could they could have just did a little bit of exposition and did his stupid phase, you know, but instead they just had him come out like like ah like a two-year-old Superman in a teenager's body. Okay.
Speaker: I don't know. i i I thought he was a lot more cognizant of what was going on than the original Adam Warlock would have been. But to run that arc, it would take forever. Warlock ends up in the Guardians, doesn't he?
Speaker: I don't think so. I think Adam Warlock... Adam Warlock, a surfer and shit like that. adam morlock surfer and shit like that
Speaker: At some point, I'm almost positive Adam Warlock ended up at Guardian the Galaxy. Not permanently, maybe. That must be me. I have no idea why.
Speaker: I'm not sure why. I'm not 100% sure why. I don't know what I said. When it comes to comic books, movies, I'm kind of a bitch. I'll agree. I have no problem admitting that.
Speaker: I'm a giant fucking nerd. You like that. see All right, man. I'm getting around 10. I got to be up for the shelter in the morning, man. Yeah, I was about to shut her down soon anyway. um Tell people where they can find you, Marco.

Speaker: If I had a hammer, I'd build house, sweetie. If had a sailor ship, I'd tell the truth. If I had the poet's hand, I'd write a verse for thee.
Speaker: If I had the painter's touch on canvas, you would be. But I don't have a hand, and I don't have a ship. So I can't build you a house, and I cannot take this trip.
Speaker: I'll never have a poet's name. Never will I have your painter's grace. I will not break your verse, nor will I mobilize your face.
Speaker: And also, you almost certainly
Speaker: Thank you.
