Winter Challenges and Frustrations
00:01:26
Speaker
Hey, what's happening? Oh, you know, just same old, same old, just living the dream. Oh yeah, the dream. The dream of life in the middle of fucking winter.
00:01:37
Speaker
The upset, the amount of upset I am right now because couldn't find my shirt I wanted to wear for the podcast today, so I just threw my entire day off. It's sad life.
00:01:48
Speaker
Sad life. you Yeah, you hate that. You hate when you can't find your wardrobe for a podcast. It's fucking terrible, bro. But anyways, I'm doing well outside of the whole wardrobe malfunction of 2026. Oh, boy.
Snowmageddon and Weekend Plans
00:02:02
Speaker
only a month in, Kevin. He already had malfunction.
00:02:04
Speaker
this ah This weekend's a big one, my friend. Yeah, it's one. got Snowmageddon happening everywhere on the East Coast, except for Florida, apparently. We've got UFC's debut on Paramount tomorrow night.
00:02:16
Speaker
Excited for that. Gas for that. um Snow is in the forecast, as as I just mentioned. And Netflix just added every single James Bond movie, including the Sean Connery one that's not canon.
00:02:27
Speaker
Oh, it did. I was wondering if they added that one. And we got the Patriots in Denver on Sunday. So yeah I'm going to go out, get bunch of food, and just hibernate for a few days and then probably have to shovel on Monday. Yeah. Which going suck.
00:02:40
Speaker
Yeah, that's my plan too. I'd come home from work Sunday morning and put the windshield wipers up and just sit here for 48 hours and do nothing. Well, yeah and shovel Monday. but It's a good thing you don't work Monday anymore. I mean, it's a bad thing, but you know what this happens. it's anything It's a good timing in the last couple of of storms for sure. snows Snow, the way I see it, is snow is awesome if you have nothing to do and you just sit at home, make some chili or whatever, and just whatever. But yeah, let's get to it.
00:03:09
Speaker
Well, I'm not making chili, but I'm going be sitting home
'Teach Ray Sports' Segment Introduction
00:03:11
Speaker
doing nothing. so I think I'll make some chili since I brought it up. let's jump in Let's jump into this week with a Teach Ray Sports.
00:03:20
Speaker
This is the theme to Teach Ray Sports. We need a theme for Teach Ray Sports. I couldn't think of anything that would be original. I stole this instrumental from the Gary Shanley Show.
00:03:31
Speaker
This is the theme to Teach Ray Sports.
00:03:39
Speaker
This is the theme teach Ray sports.
00:03:45
Speaker
You're leading this
UFC Weight Loss Practices Discussion
00:03:46
Speaker
fucking song. Yes, um this is just something that literally happened as I was laying in bed doom scrolling around noon. yeah The youc way ah weigh-ins were today. And this has been an issue for me for a long time, what these guys like...
00:03:59
Speaker
new to their bodies like they essentially don't drink water for like four days going into a weigh-in and obviously they don't eat um and today ufc fighter just barely made his weight i think it was 145 um and as he was walking off just to leave the stage probably go get a burger and fries or something just collapsed and fainted and had to be carried off the stage um UFC fighters tend to fight like 220 pounds to 40 pounds under what they walk around at.
00:04:33
Speaker
um And the reason for that, obviously, is you're in a lower weight class. So like sometimes you might have the advantage because then you as soon as the weigh-ins happen, you have like 24 hours basically just eat and get yourself hydrated and all that stuff.
00:04:44
Speaker
But like, for example, like we always talked about Chael. We did that segment a few years ago. Yeah. And obviously I love Chael. But he walked around at 225. And fought at 185. So...
00:04:57
Speaker
so Going into camp, he'd probably be 225 and then gradually work his way down to around 200. And then just the last week we'd have to work off 15 pounds um or so roughly.
00:05:09
Speaker
And like, it just isn't healthy for these guys, especially with what they make. Cause UFC fighters do not make much money, which is funny considering I know a lot more people that watch UFC than boxing and boxers make like a hundred million dollars every main event they're in.
00:05:24
Speaker
Um, But yeah, i just I just think it kind of sucks that that's the way all that all this shit happens. And I also think it's kind of crazy that the first time somebody has fainted like that. I'm sure it's happened behind the scenes and whatnot. Right. But um that fight has already been canceled for obvious reasons. And I had already i had already put um that dude winning on my parlay. So my parlay is already busted and the fucking event hasn't started. Wow.
00:05:48
Speaker
But they give you your money back if something like that happens. um And it was only like $10. But yeah, it was... Just weird seeing that and it's unfortunate what these guys go through to put their bodies through that, which is, mean, McGregor was fighting at 145 walking around at 175 like dude like when he was fighting at 145 you're like dude you could see like every boat in his body when he fought it was fucking disturbing but uh yeah i want to get that off my chest looking forward to ufc though excited i don't have to pay fucking 90 to uncle dana's fucking bank account to watch it now
00:06:27
Speaker
funny that It's funny that the UFC and the WWE reversed paramounts because Paramount Plus is what? $15 tops a month? $20 maybe?
00:06:38
Speaker
And WWE, the cheapest they get WWE with commercials is $30. And without commercials, I pay $38. And that's only for a year. And then it's going to go up another $8, I think, when the year ends up.
00:06:51
Speaker
It's going to be like $44, $40. $44 or $46 once the year ends for WWE for this ESPN package I pay for. it's worth but Plus you need Netflix too if you actually want to follow WWE. So that's technically two subscriptions.
00:07:06
Speaker
yeah and no andbox or whatever you know And you need cable if you want to watch SmackDown because you can't or right because you can't watch it on anything but the USA Network now. yeah and they don't stream that I don't think they stream that on Peacock.
00:07:19
Speaker
I get Peacock for free. I pay for dont I pay for Instacart, $100 a year, and you get Peacock Premium, but you don't get the one without the commercials. And I think if you pay for the one with commercials, um you get the, i think you get USA Network. I'm not sure. I'm not sure how that works anymore. I mean, it's confusing. but um Let's jump into the rest of the show. Let's jump into what we watched this week. um I'm on this Better Call Saul kick, and I finished season four.
00:07:52
Speaker
um
00:07:55
Speaker
Slowest of the four, I will say that. Of the four seasons I've watched so far, I got bored halfway through it. I liked Michael McKeon in the beginning beginning of this series. i hear definitely missing He's definitely missing missing him in this.
00:08:08
Speaker
um But we're seeing we're seeing Jimmy turn into Saul slowly throughout the whole entire series. But in this season in particular, he's definitely making that transition up to the point of the very last scene of this where he gets his license back.
Character Evolution in Better Call Saul
00:08:23
Speaker
He says, well, it's all good, man. And he's walking away saying he's to change his name of his practice once he gets his license back to Saul Goodman. um Him and Kim, there's definitely a divide between the two of them.
00:08:37
Speaker
One is a legitimate lawyer, and one is a car an artist. And that's been established from the beginning. right ye And that's how that's how Saul runs his business, we know from Breaking Bad. And he's damn good at it, too. Very good at it, yeah. As you'll see coming up in season... It'll be season six. um She has an awesome big conversation with somebody that's great about Saul and how good he is.
00:09:00
Speaker
I'm guessing the big bad that you were hinting to debuted at the end of this season. um The guy who he plays in the... Marvel. Marvel, he plays the swordsman. yeah um But he is Salmanca.
00:09:15
Speaker
he is the ah He is the nephew of the Salmanca that's been in the wheelchair from Breaking Bad. Hector. Hector. um And he comes in to try to straighten things out.
00:09:25
Speaker
He is like, he reminds me of like, he's like a Salamanca with a little bit of Joker to him. yeah The way he operates, he's a complete fucking psychopath. yeah ah He doesn't really trust anyone and everybody that thinks that he trusts. Yeah, he's a bad motherfucker. And obviously he's like Gus's number one enemy. um Which is awesome. Love Gus in this show.
00:09:51
Speaker
Love Mike in this show. Gus has hired on Mike To build the underground drug factory that he has in Breaking Bad. The early scenes, like seasons one and two with Mike, he absolutely dominates every season performance-wise. And I think that goes through most of the show.
00:10:07
Speaker
um Season five is a lot more Breaking Bad-paced. arm yeah breaking That's I'll say. In Breaking Bad, Mike was my favorite character and thats in that whole entire series. so He's my favorite character in the Breaking Bad universe.
00:10:21
Speaker
yep Yeah, for sure. He's got a lot. And this just proves how much so of history that he has to the character and how much growth that character has yeah from season to season and show to show.
00:10:32
Speaker
and how good of an actor he is because he's in so much more of Saul than he was... Like, we think of reason we think of him as being a lot in Breaking Bad, but he and Saul were not in as many episodes as we think about going back, which is kind of crazy. but that's the other That's the other thing I was to tell you. When I finish this watch, I'm going to watch Breaking Bad again because I'm confused a lot in this show because there's stuff that I like. Like, you've seen Breaking Bad so many times. I've seen it once. I did Breaking Bad right before also. And talking... And we're talking 15 years ago now.
00:11:04
Speaker
close to it whenever whenever Breaking Bad ended. Yeah, 2013, so yeah, 12 years ago. Yeah, so yeah, it's it's not fresh in my memory, so a lot of stuff I'm seeing, like people that are showing up there, it kind of looks familiar. Storylines are coming back to me little by little here and there, but I'm getting confused. The other thing, actually, we'll talk about it in a minute, but I'm going to do the same with Game of Thrones, because there's a lot of stuff in not it not only Knights of the Seven Kingdoms, but there's a lot of stuff in House of the Dragon that's coming up especially with egg and everything else that we know about that we're not going to talk about in the podcast a big spoiler but stuff was brought up in Game of Thrones stuff has been brought up in House of Dragon that I want to go back and watch at least Game of Thrones and get those glimpses back that I'm kind of getting shadow banned from my own shadow ban but um before we get into that fallout episode 6 um fallout there's not much to really talk about yet There is a mystery of who set off the bomb, which we're probably going to find out by the end of the season, which we've got two more episodes left. um But it's it's good. it's it's it's just not as quick and fast-paced as was last season when we got it all i think I watched the first four, and that's decided I'm just going to binge the rest. yeah um
00:12:19
Speaker
I liked i like the binge aspect of the first season more. Yeah. Week to week. um I think it's a better binge show than a week to week. So yeah if you get to do a slow episode with the binge model, you can go to the next episode and it's all forgiven because the next episode probably won't be bad. So, yeah. yeah Yeah.
Human Stories in Westeros
00:12:38
Speaker
So jump into what we the big thing, the big premiere this week, a night of the seven kingdoms. We're back in and went back into Westeros 100 years before Game of Thrones.
00:12:50
Speaker
100... Is it 200 years after House of Dragons? 100 years after House of Dragons? Something like that? Like halfway point? I think it's like... Yeah, it's like 100 after house in like 93 years before the main show so we're almost in the halfway point of between the two shows um and of course it's past the time of dragons um it's past the time of uh there's a lot of change going on in westeros and we're not seeing that part of king's landing we're not seeing any of that stuff we're seeing a grounded mm-hmm
00:13:23
Speaker
story of humanity deep down in the underbelly of characters. I think what ah i think somebody pointed this out. is like They're not fighting over an Iron Throne in this show. The Iron Throne for him is getting to his next meal. Because he's a knight that's not actually a knight.
00:13:41
Speaker
He just has a sword and he can fight. He's taking the mantle of being a knight. In the show, we meet... The tall. Dunk in the tall. Dunk.
00:13:52
Speaker
um Like you mentioned, at the very first scene of this, he has a mentor who passes away. He buries him. That scene's fucking hilarious, by the way.
00:14:03
Speaker
When he's talking to him. I love that shit. Well, yeah, we'll we'll get into it, I guess. Yeah, it wasn't yeah we'll talk about it. um But he decides to bury him, and he takes on the mantle of a knight. I don't know what kind of what kind of knighthood that this guy had. I guess he was a knight. He worked.
00:14:21
Speaker
I don't really know. yeah um he He took the mantle of a knight, like you mentioned, didn't really get it. be Hadn't really been knighted. but um And the very first scene of this show, um he's talking about how he's going to be a knight of the Seven Kingdoms and this and that. And all of a sudden, you hear the familiar Game of Thrones sound.
00:14:40
Speaker
playing like the the theme song oh yeah we're back in Game of Thrones yes finally and then all of a sudden it cuts to him shitting behind a tree and you actually see him shitting yes that was pretty funny um yeah and it it caught everybody off guard but yeah Yeah, um the banter in this show is hilarious, especially between him and Egg. They have very good banter in their two scenes. And the other thing I want to bring up before I forget is the Baratheon in this show. ye um
00:15:12
Speaker
he's He's awesome. I don't know much about him. I just know he's kind of a crazy nut. um So he's just looking to have some fun, it looks like. Just a whack job, but I love him.
00:15:24
Speaker
I love all the characters so far in this show. Yeah, we meet Egg, who is this little kid, bald kid. um There's a reason for all this. I'm sure it'll be explained in the season. We'll get into it. I'm guessing next episode is when we find out.
00:15:38
Speaker
Yep, but he is ah working in a stable, starts talking to Dunk, and he follows him to where they're doing this jousting tournament. i unbeknownsted to Unbeknownst to Dunkin', Egg follows him there and kind of becomes a squire, right? Kind of just just finds out where he's resting yeah and takes over the whole camp and runs everything and doing all the minial minimal work that he doesn't want Dunk to do. He's trying and he's just trying to prove himself. um and that And that'll become more and more. because well I know the spoiler. You know it more than I do. but I know the big spoiler of he is and why he's there and why he's bald. The cool thing about this show for me, though, is it's the material I haven't read yet from George R. R. Martin. So yeah it's pretty much new outside. like That's the only thing I knew. And I didn't know if it was a spoiler or not. And I guess it kind of is. but yeah Yeah, it's traded like that. If you watch Game of Thrones, you can kind of figure it out if you can remember that.
00:16:33
Speaker
and And the HBO social social media posts are talking about it. Right. They've actually posted the video of getting the Game of Thrones scenes talking about Egg and Dunk. um And they that was the yeah Game of Thrones scene talking about Dunk for sure, but the one talking about Egg as well and who he's related to, they've actually posted that scene on on their socials all week. Yes. And... um Also, after after we get off here, I do want to tell you something that's kind of interesting in that scene where you first meet Egg. Okay. But i don't want to spoil anything. But it's just a fun factoid because you already know who Egg is. Yep. But, yeah, great show so far.
00:17:11
Speaker
On Sunday nights, six episodes, so it's going to quick watch. Middle of February, end of February be all over. But, yeah, very good so far.
Review of 'Free Bert' Stand-up
00:17:19
Speaker
And it's like getting a lot of praise, so I cannot wait to finish that. um Another great show.
00:17:24
Speaker
Funny show. Came out on Netflix yesterday. Watched the whole thing. Very quick to watch. Six episodes, and I think they're like 24 minutes each, if if not less. oh free Free Bert.
00:17:36
Speaker
Bert Kreischer. If you like his comedy, I love this show. um It's very funny. The standout star of the show is his youngest daughter. She is hilarious. She swears all the time. She's just a younger version of Bert. If you love Burt Kreischer's comedy, you're going to love the show. It's great.
00:17:55
Speaker
A lot of family moments, a lot of drama, a lot of just funny accidental comedy. It's it's such just a great show. It's on Netflix right now, the whole series, the whole season. and I'm sure it'll be picked up for a second season because it is cheap to make for Netflix. And they're making it. And they're having a ton of eyes going on to it. So a lot of people. And he already, I believe he has a contract with Netflix anyways with his comedy stuff. He does. Yeah, he does. So, yep. And WWE Unreal. They had another second season of WWE Unreal. R-Truth.
00:18:25
Speaker
R-Truth episode was fantastic. um Five episodes total this time. First one was all about Becky Lynch and her comeback after kind of taking a break, becoming a mother.
00:18:35
Speaker
um And episode two was all about R-Truth and about him being fired and being brought back and changing his hairdo and everything. And episode 3 is building the vision with Braun Breaker. Episode 4 is about the work, long-term storytelling, swerving the fans, and brought bringing in Jelly Roll right as he's losing weight to do part i think a a stunt at SummerSlam. And episode 5 is all about the Seth Rollins swerve and the payoff. And being John Cena's final SummerSlam and Cody and Brock Lesnar, Cody going against John Cena winning the title and Brock Lesnar showing up at the end. So I'm guessing they did confirm a new season coming out this summer. And I'm guessing that that third season is probably going to tackle John Cena's final run. From SummerSlam to the end of the year, especially with Brock Lesnar. We're going to be seeing a lot of cool stuff next in the summer. that's That's pretty cool. Overall, great show. I understand why older wrestlers hate it because it's giving all the secrets away. It's kind of like you remember the show that the magician, the mass magician, that gave away all the secrets of magicians and all magicians went against him. Kind of like that.
00:19:44
Speaker
Well, like that happened the other and in wrestling, too. we Remember Harley Race? It did. Because pro wrestling in the late 90s. And they were not happy about that. I think it was Harley Race. People were very angry. But that was when shoot interviews weren't as popular. You didn't have every podcast breaking all the rules. That's the thing. Hey, Fave, that shit. Yeah. That's the thing. And not only that, but you have Dark Side of the Ring on another station talking about their characters on on ah unraveling everything, and WWE doesn't say anything about it, so they kind of have to have their own programming to counteract that.
00:20:15
Speaker
um And this is their way of doing it. Time to wake up. i woke up early today. um And the movie of the of the week debuted on Netflix last
Review of 'The Rip' Action Film
00:20:24
Speaker
Friday. We watched it last weekend. It's The Rip.
00:20:27
Speaker
um This is Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Stephen Yen from The Walking Dead, um Tiana Taylor from... Yeah, Sasha Kali from us from ah The Flash. Tiana Taylor from Once Upon a... Whatever that movie that just came out that's getting all of the accolades with Leo. She's in that. Oh, um yeah. But The Rips.
00:20:53
Speaker
But The Rip, it's all about these this group of narcotic detectives who work in Miami, and they are part of this drug enforcement or money laundering unit to try to figure out all the crimes going on in Miami. um Overall, decent movie. Liked it a lot. Liked the action. Liked the like the protecting the group and everything that that Matt Damon was kind of a leader of.
00:21:21
Speaker
um Overall, 4 out of 5. Thought it was very good. It's good score. yep i love I love seeing Matt Damon and Ben Affleck back together. They haven't done too many movies together. right They produced a lot together, but they haven't yet done a lot together. They did Air. think it was the last one they did.
00:21:38
Speaker
And, yeah of course, Good Will Hunting before that. They did Good Will Hunting. Then they just produced a bunch of stuff together. together ye The first time they acted together, I think, was that... Three Sides of the Story, night movie with Adam Driver. That's right, yep.
00:21:52
Speaker
I think that was the first time they acted together, but they weren't in too many scenes together, and Ben Affleck looked weird with blonde hair. I think that was the first movie we may have reviewed on the podcast. That's how long ago that movie came out. Wow.
00:22:04
Speaker
Wow. Now that you're being reminded about that. But yeah, very good movie. It's on Netflix. um Yeah, we have some stuff to review next week. We'll get to get into it at the end. But until then, let's get into...
00:22:18
Speaker
the news.
00:22:25
Speaker
And it's it.

Speaker
And we got some trailers this week, some good trailers. um First off, we talk about it all the time.
Excitement for Masters of the Universe Trailer
00:22:35
Speaker
where We're maybe a year or two behind on Masters of the Universe and He-Man.
00:22:40
Speaker
It wasn't really in our lexicon growing up. We were a little bit little bit younger than that demographic. But if we were maybe a year older, we this would have definitely been our bread and butter.
00:22:54
Speaker
This trailer was fucking awesome. Looked great. Not knowing anything about it, really. Yep. um I think it looks fantastic. the only thing The only thing, part of it that I know is ah Jared Leto plays Skeletor.
00:23:08
Speaker
Yep. And I know He-Man, of course. I know his group of people that are there. I know Castle's Greyskull. And I know it has a huge following of people a year or two older than us. Yes. And that whole that whole demographic. But...
00:23:22
Speaker
Other than that, no idea. and But the trailer looked fantastic. looking It looked really good. A lot of action. Lots of colors. It just looked really good. And I cannot wait to see it.

But, yeah, depending on how many episodes there are. um <unk> Today, brand new trailer, brand new poster for The Muppet Show Revival. um As far as it is right now, this is a one and only time limited show. is going to be It's produced by Seth Rogen.
00:26:24
Speaker
And it's going to star Sabrina Carpenter. And it's just to see if people are interested in the Muppets. And if they're going watch a show. If this gets good to ratings, even jokes about it in the trailer, if it gets good ratings, they they could make another series out of it. Which would be great. um There's a lot of raunchy jokes in it.
00:26:42
Speaker
um Kind of like back in the day, the Muppet show in the 70s had some adult humor to it. Not to the point where it was swearing and this and that, but they knew that it was a primetime audience, so adults were watching too, so they were kind of were open a little bit more than just for a kid audience. And it was also the 70s.
00:27:01
Speaker
And 70s too, you can get away with a lot of shit. There was nudity in Jaws, and it's pg as a PG movie. Right, that's before R became a thing. But this comes out February. comes out February 4th in a couple weeks.
00:27:12
Speaker
um I will watch this and we'll talk about it. i do love the Muppet show back in the day, the old ones. Yes, you will watch this and you will talk about it and i will listen. Well, we can talk about this. Debut about two hours ago. got a trailer for Lobo. is Supergirl. um it was teased yesterday on social media that they're go to do something with ah jason moa' revealed we weren't sure what it was and it was a little there's actually two teasers there's one of jason ma moya momoa coming out of a trailer and you see this scene with him riding the motorcycle with his weapon and he's coming out of this big huge blast of fire
00:27:48
Speaker
And he's smoking a cigar and he has a big smile and a smirk on his on his face. And the other one is just a rework of the trailer that we saw earlier in the year or a couple months ago of Supergirl with this scene added into it. um And the difference being that um Kara is saying something to the effect of what what i blank, who said yeah what a piece of peep, whatever. yeah um Looks awesome. This is the role that Jason Momoa was born to play. Even he knows that. Everybody in Hollywood, everybody in geek culture knows that. So it's exciting. I think they should have waited until the Super Bowl, though. I think they were a little premature on it. yeah This have been a great Super Bowl trailer, but maybe they're planning more. Who knows? um
00:28:29
Speaker
But yeah, that's it for trailers this week. Last weekend's box office... Kind of small. Avatar is number one again, but but only 13 million. And 28 years later, Bone Temple was right on its tail. was another 13 million. So, yeah, end of the end of the Avatar run in America. um and Zootopia 2 in the eighth week was number three with 8.7 million. um The Rip had 41.6 million views in just three days last weekend. So that's pretty good for that shoot for that movie. um And Knights of the Seven Kingdoms, Drew 6.7 million viewers across the platforms of HBO Max and HBO Live.
00:29:07
Speaker
Third biggest premiere in HBO Max history. Right behind House of Dragon and The Last of Us, which was number two. um Yeah, that's great for that show. I think it's going to pick up momentum once people start watching it. So that's awesome. yeah A little bit of Warner Brothers Discovery. um Netflix changed their whole entire... Offered a cash this week, and it was accept it was accepted immediately by by Warner Brothers Discovery. um ah Yeah, so they're going all cash for their bid kind of true sweeten the deal. That's what Paramount was trying to do, and now think Netflix has definitely got this in the hand. The only thing is, it's not going to pass.
00:29:47
Speaker
It's not going to pass any regulators of America right because everybody's against it. They have to sweeten they have to sweeten the deal to the Department of Justice and to Trump directly in order for this to pass to get their to get their approval, but who knows um Sinners. talk about the Talk about the Oscars. Sinners.
00:30:06
Speaker

00:30:37
Speaker
Begonia, great movie. F1, I know you saw that. I liked that movie a lot. Now, they have 10 nominations for Best Picture. They did that about 10 years ago. I think it makes sweeten the load, put a lot more in there. A lot of these are just there just to be there. We all knew we all knew a film like F1 or like Maverick or Black Panther wouldn't win, but that those movies got people that were just...
00:31:04
Speaker
fans of those type of movies yes to watch the Oscars where usually it'd be like the pianist versus Shakespeare in love or some fuck shit like that. It's all it's all the art don't care about yeah it's all the art films against going against each other this way put the blockbusters in there too. um Frankenstein that was a great movie.

Chloe Zhao, Josh Safti for Marty Supreme, Paul Thomas Anderson, one battle after another, Ryan Coogler for Sinners. I hope he wins. And joehan Joe... I don't know how to say his name for sentimental value. um Snubs.
00:33:31
Speaker
um Guillermo del Toro, snub for best director for Frankenstein. I wanted to mention that. Um... Animated feature, um probably going to be K-Pop Demon Hunters. um Original score, hoping it's Sinners, but one battle after another, Frankenstein, Begonia, and Hamnet are in that category. Best visual effects, F1, Avatar Fire and Ash, obviously. The Lost Bus, Sinners, and Jurassic World Rebirth.
00:33:58
Speaker
No Fantastic Four, no Thunderbolts, no Captain America, most importantly, no Superman. they yeah fake They were out of superhero categories completely. None of them actually had any nominations in the Oscars. um Best Original Song, the song from Sinners is in there, but also the song Golden from K-Pop Demon Hunters, which will probably win because that song was huge. um Top nominations, of course, 16 for Sinners we talked about, 13 for One Battle After Another, 9 for Frankenstein, 9 for Marty Supreme, and 9 for Sentimental Value. For a movie I never heard of until this week, that's incredible. um More snubs. Chase Infinity, who I really liked in One in one ah one Battle After Another. yeah um She was snubbed for Best Actress. Paul Muscal, we loved him in Gladiator 2 last year. Snubbed for Best Supporting Actor in the Hamnet movie. yeah um And Wicked for Good received zero Oscar nominations for acting and the movie in general. No no technical noms or nothing.
00:34:59
Speaker
Um, so yeah, uh, big snubs all around, but the, uh, big thing we're gonna talk about, um, the night before the Oscars is the Razzies.
00:35:11
Speaker
The Razzie nominations tied for most nominations, six each, War the Worlds with Ice Cube, which was god-awful. And Snow White, which I would have watched if it didn't get so so bad so much so many bad bad reviews, um which is definitely would have been on my radar. but um They lead with six nominations, Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Supporting Actor, and Seven Artificial Dwarfs, Worst Screen Combo, The Seven Dwarfs. Wow. Worst remake, ripoff, and sequel. see yeah Worst picture, up for up for that category. um The Electric State didn't watch that. That's Russo Brothers movie. It's fucking terrible. It's terrible.
00:35:51
Speaker
Hurry Up Tomorrow, Disney Snow White, Star Trek Section 31. That's like a Paramount exclusive movie, I believe. Yeah. War of the Worlds. Worst remake, ripoff, and sequel. I know what you did last summer.

00:36:27
Speaker
oh i have I'm not sure if I'm going to watch that or not. um And The Weeknd in Hurry Up Tomorrow. I hear that movie is pretty terrible. um One of my friends who I trust his movie reviews loved Tron Aries, but he's also a huge fan end of the Tron series. yeah So I'm going to check it out and let him know what I think.
00:36:45
Speaker
So I'll let you know too. Thing about Tron, Tron was another one of those movies that was not in our generation. It was like five years before us. if we were five years older, it would have been in our bread and butter, but it's just not, we don't care about it.
00:37:00
Speaker
ah yeah Ariana DeVoy in Love Hurts. That movie was okay. I thought she was okay in it. um i Mila Djokovic in The Lost Land for, this is the worst actress, Natalie Portman in The Fountain of Youth. Rebel Wilson and Brideheart. I haven't heard half of these movies. Michelle Yeoh and Star Trek Section 31. Worst Supporting Actress. Anybody there worth mentioning? Not really. Actor. The Artificial Seven Dwarfs. Nicholas Cage and Gunslingers. Don't know what that is. Don't know any of that. Worst Screen Combo. All Seven Dwarfs in Snow White.

War of the Worlds. The Russo Brothers. Electric State. Mark Webb for Snow White. Worst Screenplay. Electric State.
00:37:55
Speaker
Hurry Up Tomorrow. see there's There's a lot of shitty movies this year and that's just... proves that so yeah so the night before the Oscars we'll watch that we'll talk about them both in a couple months or a month or so month and a half something like that um Tenacious D's Kyle Gass made a statement this week, kind of apologizing for talking about when Trump got shot that the shooter missed. And, of course, tent Tenacious D broke up after that. Jack Black kind of had a career career can career control where he tried to save face and broke up.
00:38:31
Speaker
temporarily Tenacious D. um He's gone on record saying that he's sorry that he said that. um Put Jack Black in a in a weird place to have to to to do that. Still friends and he's saying that Tenacious D will be coming back eventually. But he's kind of facing the backlash head on and apologizing for it. Kind of have to do that when you say stuff like that and and divide half of your audience. so i Understandably.
00:38:56
Speaker
But they will be back. I love Tenacious D. um And we got the cast for the Kennedy series. It's coming out Netflix, I believe. We already knew that Michael Fassbender is going playing Joe Kennedy Sr. This is setting up, ah like an I would say, a 20-year-old John F. Kennedy who's who's played by ah a new up-and-comer, Joshua Melnick. He's playing Jack, who was John F. Kennedy. A couple other familiar faces here. i'm not i don't You're not going to know who they are. I'm not going mention them, but... Uh, yeah, I'm excited for that. It's all about, there's a lot of crazy shit that happens.
00:39:32
Speaker
Um, one of the, I believe it's Joe's sister had a lobotomy. i think it was Rosemary. Um, and she's gonna part of this show as well. And they, and they, that was when, You figure you can you tackle mental illness with putting a needle in somebody's brain. yeah So that's that was that's how ah that's how things were back in the day. So it's going to tackle all that leading up to Jack going into politics and everything. So, yeah, we'll watch it maybe.
00:39:56
Speaker
We'll talk about it. um All these documentaries, we had one coming out with Chevy Chase a couple weeks ago. Steve Martin came out last year. We got one coming out on Netflix on May 12th about Martin Short. um it's Lawrence Kasdan, writer of merit of The Empire Strikes Back in Return of the Jedi, is directing it.
00:40:16
Speaker
so ah I love Martin Short. I love Steve Martin. I'm sure Martin going to be all over this as well. so Very exciting to see this. It comes out in May. um Got a brand new poster. I don't know why we're getting this, but a Legally Blonde prequel called Elle. I actually don't mind the first Legally Blonde movie, but it's definitely it definitely fell off after that. um Reese Witherspoon. Season 1 comes out July 1st. Brand new poster for that. i Also a brand new poster for Scream 7. This is a Nostalgia right here. this is like movie This is like going into a movie store back in the day and seeing a poster like this in the 90s. Looks cool. But, i yeah, was awesome. um Speaking of horror movies, slasher movies, Eli Roth has a new movie called Bitch, eyes Don't Go in the House, Bitch, and he's hired Snoop Dogg to star in it. um
00:41:09
Speaker
Oh, boy. Next year, I think we're getting Thanksgiving, too, which I'm excited for. Eli, just stick to that franchise. That movie is one of the best movies you've done. yeah um Like you mentioned at the beginning of the show, James Bond's whole entire collection came to Netflix. um And that's the whole entire run of movies. And you mentioned that the one that wasn't in the never seen actual canon is on there too. So that's awesome. They're all on Netflix in the U.S. now.
00:41:37
Speaker
Um, da-da-da-da. Oh, I had that mixed up here. Mike Flanagan's The Exorcist has a date now, March 12th of next year, so a little over a year from now. um so That stars Scarlett Johansson.
00:41:51
Speaker
um di itta And a new movie from Kenan and Kel. It's going be a horror comedy movie called Kenan and Kel Meet Frankenstein. They're going Abbott and Costello route. So that's going to be weird and exciting.
00:42:03
Speaker
We mentioned it last week. I hope I put the pictures here of Dwight and i did ah dwight and Michael Scott joining Fortnite. The official pics came out today. um Yeah, so i have to wait on that. And we got a full trailer on the new Fable game, which looks incredible. Yeah.
00:42:22
Speaker
you played if if You played Fable back on the Xbox back in the day Yes. um I was talking about this with people. That was before that was before i was into fantasy, so like I didn't get very far in that game at all.
00:42:33
Speaker
This new game looks absolutely insane, and I cannot wait to get my hands on it. It looks really good, and the announcement coming out on PS5. The announcement is not x Xbox. It's always been an Xbox exclusive up to this point, but it's coming out Xbox PS5, which is awesome.
00:42:48
Speaker
So yeah, coming out autumn of 2026. Yeah, we'll see. um And on Sunday, we're getting a new trailer for Super Mario Galaxy, but they did release a picture of Mario and Luigi holding fire, which looks awesome. um I love this. I love this. I was just thinking today, not only do I love Mario, but I cannot wait to see Zelda.
00:43:11
Speaker
Um, that's like, that's going to be like, that's going to be like when we go see Zelda in the theater, that's going be like us becoming kids again. Um, hopefully. Yeah. I can't, I can't wait for that.
00:43:21
Speaker
It's going to be really weird having Link talk, but he did talk in the cartoon. So it's just going weird having a live action Link talk. I wonder, I wonder what they're adapting. That's like the big question. is Are they going to do a, are they going to a new story? They're going adapt Ark Arena, which is their bread and butter from back in the day.
00:43:38
Speaker
Do a new story because you can take elements of everything. and Everything, yeah. you know You just take elements of that, but just have it be like a a new story like they would do it if it was a game.
00:43:49
Speaker
it's one of those It's one of those games that should have been done years ago, but I understand why they waited so long because there is so much fantasy to that because fantasy is huge right now, of course, but I'm very excited for that. and well We'll talk about it when more. Some stuff we didn't mention last week, the Kathleen Kennedy announcement, they didn't mention the standalone Ray movie at all in that announcement.
00:44:13
Speaker
um So we're kind of wondering where that movie is. Is that movie still happening with Ray? Right. And that whole trilogy that they're supposed to start with episode 10 on? think they said... ah I think they said it's gonna it's no longer Rey-centric. She's just going to be in the movie. Basically, it they're they're basically making the movie they should have made with Episode 7 where she's training Jedi at the new Jedi Temple, wherever that's been established. um and I think it's going to expand upon like how many young Jedi and they might do spinoffs. I don't know what's going to happen exactly, but that's just what I heard um from people that kind of know what's going on.
00:44:48
Speaker
Right. so And we have to have a retraction from last week about Rian Johnson talking about how he backed away from Star Wars for online negativity. um he can't actually came He actually went on social media.
00:45:02
Speaker
A quote, LOL, zero spooked. Sorry. Um, so he had to defend himself. All you have to do is watch episode nine and know that Disney is the ones that were spooked.
00:45:13
Speaker
Well, yeah, that movie was all over the older place. If they had continued the journey from eight, everything would have made a lot of sense to Nate that they just didn't close anything off from because they were like, we're going to try to pretend that movie didn't happen. And they played catch up with episode nine and it didn't work out.
00:45:28
Speaker
But, uh, yeah. Yeah. oh Let's get into some swag. Swag. Stuff we all get. Come on, son. You know that's right.
00:45:40
Speaker
We got a new look at some pop figures. they got a few They had a Toy Fair in Japan, I believe, or somewhere overseas. um We got new Dunkin' Egg figures. We got a new John Rambo figure, which looked pretty fucking cool.
00:45:51
Speaker
um we're some We got some Stranger Things ones. We got Dustin in The Graduation, Steve Harrington holding his knife stick, and a couple of other other weird ones. um And Laura Croft, Tomb Raider, the old PS1 version and, the course, the newer version. We got a ghost face with a tongue, most on synonymous for scary movie.
00:46:12
Speaker
Yep. We have a better look at the It Welcome to Dairy figure. This looks even better actually seeing out the it does. And it's black light. It glows in the dark in black light. looks really cool. I have a picture on YouTube if you to look at that. to get yeah.
00:46:24
Speaker
And they also are coming up with these new Corner Nook figures. and They have a few of them here. I threw all throw on here. You got Yoda and Dagobah. You got Bilbo in the Shire.
00:46:35
Speaker
You've got ah Snow White. you got You got Miles Morales in his bedroom. You got Jason Voorhees underwater. You got Jurassic Park, the T-Rex in Visitor Center. and Some cool ones here. A new style of doing pop figures. so that's That's kind of cool.
00:46:51
Speaker
oh the And... I love this. Doctor Who coming out with new figures from the 10th Doctor, 11th Doctor, 9th Doctor. Looks awesome. With a TARDIS too, as well as one of the 15th Doctor's there too. We got Wolverine in the iconic X-Men early 92 animated series sitting on the bed looking at a picture of Jean Grey.
00:47:17
Speaker
And this one. Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow. Yeah. We talk about that a lot, um and this figure looks awesome. It's got the comic book in the background. Big huge. She's one of those tall ones it's the com that comes with a comic book. It's the figure of Supergirl with a sword from that comic book cover, and standing in front of the comic book, and it's all in the acrylic case. It looks really cool. They also debuted, that which wasn't shown to the audience, um Pops for Clayface, Supergirl, Lanterns, and Avengers Doomsday. um Like I mentioned, it was in a secret room that only Prescott got in with no cameras. So it's been seen, but nobody knows exactly what's going on there. um Won't know for a while. Those don't come out, of course, for almost a year for some of these. so um Yeah.
00:48:07
Speaker
Lego also coming out with this puppy. A Golden Retriever puppy. um If you can't have dogs and you love dogs, I guess get a Lego set. and i hurt And Hot Toys.
00:48:20
Speaker
Coming out with with i said Steve Rogers with Johnny Storm from Deadpool and Wolverine. When he has a big huge reveal, takes off his robe and it's Johnny Storm. and the He thinks it's Captain America but it's not. Um, yeah, it looks really cool.
00:48:38
Speaker
And speaking of Marvel, Kevin Feige says that he's solely focused on Avengers Doomsday and Secret Wars, uh, for this past year. Um, the only thing he stepped away is to hire a Jack Scherr-Shire for X-Men and to cast Sadie Sink in the MCU. I'm not sure how accurate that is. That came from a YouTube video. Same with ah Kevin Feige. It's kind of let Amy Pascal handle Spider-Man Brand New Day. I don't think that's the case.
00:49:05
Speaker
But I don't think they would let that happen. Speaking of that movie, um supposedly this is a leaked movie. Poster of that movie. I have no idea. Trailer's coming out sometime soon. I'm guessing so closer to the Super Bowl, which would make yeah sense if you're promoting something.
00:49:21
Speaker
But yeah. Wonder Man. Review embargo lifted this week, and it's getting praised higher than a lot of other Marvel marvel stuff in the last 10 years. is it's it's Everybody's calling it like the anti-Marvel show. Um, and how, if you're a fan of the MCU, this show is not for you. It's fans for people that love television, love Hollywood. Um, and, uh, we got some new posters for that as well. as like And a whole bunch episode titles, uh, eight episodes all we're releasing next week on January 27th, just in four days and on, uh, Tuesday. So, uh, we'll talk about those next week. I'm gonna try to watch all of them. Yeah. Um,
00:49:59
Speaker
The Russo Brothers. And the new Thank thank You a Billion. They had a built billion billion of views for all of their of all of their trailers that came out for Avengers Doomsday. They thanked them. um And I mentioned last week that in the in these trailers, there's a time stamp in each one of them that points to a people are speculating it points to a time on Avengers, a time, a time stamp on Avengers Endgame. Um, and if that's the case, this trailer had the same thing, um, and it goes to the time where, um, where Hawkeye goes back in time to test out the theory of time travel, and he goes back to his family to see them, um, when they're going, or walking around their, uh, their cabin, but, Um, who knows? I don't know if that's true or not. Um, Ron Perlman says he's still ready to do Hellboy 3, 75 years old. Um, he says, as long as I'm covered in rubber, no one will know I'm pissing my pants. Um, that is definitely one of the travesties of comic book, um, comic book anything, um, that that third movie was not made because that was made to be a trilogy. Um, and it never got, it just never, it just kept getting passed on because people didn't want to pay the money to make it. But,
00:51:11
Speaker
I hope that that gets made. I don't know if it it will, but I really do hope they they pull the trigger on that. um This looks awesome. Done by Kevin Smith. Bizarro year none. um Story, a prequel of how Bizarro was made. ah Just just an infinity secret origin of his the if the definitive secret origin of his character. part of the writing of that. um So yeah.
00:51:40
Speaker
I've got some stuff, some DC stuff we can talk about. dc hires DC studio hired Bumblebee and the Flash Rider for Batman Brave and Bold. I know you probably know more about that than I do following the geek culture. Yeah, people are not happy.
00:51:55
Speaker
Yeah, I know. But it is one of those. She did Birds of Prey. She did Birds of Prey. lot people hate that And Bumblebee, which is Bumblebee, which a great movie. So I assume that whoever they hired, they prior to...
00:52:07
Speaker
hired somebody with the intention of having a lot of oversight in the script anyways. Yeah. Um, cause you, you can't fuck up Batman. Like you, that literally will kill the universe if they fuck up Batman.
00:52:21
Speaker
That's, uh, there's only two tent poles you have to worry about. That's Superman and Batman. Everything else can kind of fall to the side if they need to. Um, James Gunn answered a lot of questions on threads last week. um all the All the rumors about Batman and Wonder Woman auditioning were false.
00:52:38
Speaker
The big news about Man of Tomorrow was the appearance of Brainiac. Aside of that, most of the major cast are characters we've seen already. And they're currently casting smaller roles. There will be no updates on Brave of the Bold until the script is finished. um Also, he doesn't want it to clash with the Batman Part 2, which we already knew. They're not going to release in the same time period, time same year. um da Many DCU projects are close to being greenlit. One unknown unknown unknown project already has been. Dynamic Duo is not being rewritten to be part of the DCU. The film is progressing really well. He has denied the belief that Batman batman and Wonder Woman are in Man of Tomorrow in any capacity.
00:53:19
Speaker
um He confirms that they are casting a female character for Man of Tomorrow and that Scoopers probably assumed it was one Wonder Woman. Not the case. Sam McCurdy will be the cinematographer Man of Tomorrow. He did a Peacemaker, Shogun, and Monarch ah Legacy of Monsters.
00:53:35
Speaker
There won't be a trailer for clayla Clayface for the next couple of months. James Gunn hasn't seen the film. Scheduled for release in September still. um Stated that they won't have two Batman... already talked about that. ah the And he's going back to work on storyboards. That's basically what he's doing now. so i'm Getting ready to film Manna tomorrow. um Which is likely to take its inspiration from the Panic in the Sky storyline from the 90s. This is where Brainiac, the help of Maxima, invades Earth. We've got some covers here of that.
00:54:08
Speaker
This is the story right before Death of Superman. I think a year before, maybe that maybe earlier that year. um yeah Superman assembles a team of heroes to fight Brainiac. The other thing I don't have in the news, I thought I did, there's a rumor that there's a series, um a prequel series. I think I took it off the news because I wasn't sure how accurate it was.
00:54:29
Speaker
There's a rumor of a prequel series being set in the nineteen four s of older superheroes. Kind of the ones that are around the ah border of the train station or the yeah justice the Hall of Justice. I haven't seen anything official about that or anything even close to that. That honestly might be where we get our Flash. um They might just use Jay Garrick to kind of stray away from Barry because of the Flash movie.
00:54:55
Speaker
I think it's just as Wally, but whatever. Yeah, who knows? They're definitely doing different takes of yeah the universe. so um That's it for our show this week. Next week, we'll talk about Fallout Episode 7, penultimate episode. ah Night of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 2. Last night, the first episode of mel the Mel Brooks documentary aired. Tonight, the second episode. That's why I didn't talk about it. I haven't watched it. I'm actually going to wait until next week. We'll talk about the whole thing. Perfect. um Secret Mall Apartment, we may watch that sometime this week or next week. But the reason why I'm saying May is because Wonder Man comes out. I want to watch the whole thing of that. And that comes out on the 27th. It's only three hours.
00:55:34
Speaker
Okay, maybe we'll watch it then. It's like three hours and 15 minutes because each episode is short. um So I think we'll be able to do that. If you could watch the entire season of Saul last week, I think we'll be yeah manage Wonder Man this week, especially if it's good, because you'll just sit there and watch the whole thing probably. Yeah, probably. Yeah. um And the big premiere next week on the 28th, the day after is shrinking season three. oh yeah i I'm not sure how many episodes are premiering, but it comes out on the 28th. which is five days from now. So very excited. Love that show.
