Movie Discussions & Trailer Talk

00:01:44
the_popcorn_podcast
is the tool mad at me?
00:01:44
Ryan
I don't feel like it.
00:01:47
the_popcorn_podcast
You guys need new plyblades. So fucking good.
00:01:49
Ryan
I do have to see. I gotta to be honest. I gotta to watch the second one too. I still haven't watched the second one.
00:01:53
the_popcorn_podcast
I don't know.
00:01:54
Ryan
Yeah. The first one's good. It's just solid.
00:01:57
the_popcorn_podcast
i
00:01:58
Ryan
Yeah.
00:01:59
the_popcorn_podcast
But then like, I don't know, I feel like that should've been one movie.
00:01:59
Ryan
and
00:02:02
the_popcorn_podcast
one One movie with that family, go do another family.
00:02:05
Ryan
yeah kidtaman You see the trailer for the game too?
00:02:08
the_popcorn_podcast
But...
00:02:08
the_popcorn_podcast
Oh, uh, quiet place game.
00:02:08
Ryan
up Yeah, the quiet place game.
00:02:11
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:02:11
Ryan
Yeah.
00:02:11
Ryan
Yeah.
00:02:11
the_popcorn_podcast
I don't know how this can be.
00:02:13
the_popcorn_podcast
Sounds like... No, I think it's the plan, but I figured, what am I gonna do?
00:02:13
Ryan
i thought it looked kind of cool you know i think so
00:02:16
Ryan
figure am like i
00:02:17
the_popcorn_podcast
How am I gonna talk to people? Like, how am I gonna...
00:02:19
Ryan
like Oh, yeah, exactly. It's like, I feel like that that is the thing.
00:02:21
the_popcorn_podcast
like
00:02:22
Ryan
It might get really old, really fast, like to just be quiet part. But it it kind of looked like it reminded me of like a Last of Us type thing. I'm not I'm not saying it's going to be that good, because I don't think it will be.
00:02:29
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm like, yeah, I'm just like nodding down.
00:02:32
Ryan
But I think you'd be cool, especially if there's like a microphone mechanic. Like if you have a microphone, you can hear.
00:02:36
the_popcorn_podcast
That would be worth it in here.
00:02:38
Ryan
Yeah. But they said that the character in the trailer, it seemed like you're playing as a girl who finds out she's pregnant, which sucks.
00:02:39
the_popcorn_podcast
but they
00:02:47
the_popcorn_podcast
and
00:02:47
Ryan
And the, um, the thing IGN posted was that the main character is going to be asthmatic too.
00:02:52
Ryan
So you're pregnant with asthma and you have to be quiet.

Ryan
It's so hard.
00:03:23
the_popcorn_podcast
It's probably the only social media that I genuinely like enjoy going on because it's cool to see what everyone else agrees with. But it's so hard to depict a four star movie with a four and a half because I feel like it's such a big leap.

I'm from America.
00:06:31

00:06:31
the_popcorn_podcast
This one? It looks like it doesn't fucking horrible.
00:06:34
Ryan
It looks not good, but it doesn't look awful. I don't think it looks awful. I think they're going to do.

00:06:39
Ryan
the design He is a little too skinny.
00:06:41
the_popcorn_podcast
It's not great.
00:06:43
Ryan
Yeah. Well, I think that's just the movies all washed out because that's what every cheap movie looks like.
00:06:44
the_popcorn_podcast
like Yeah, I mean, you can be like, hmm.
00:06:49
Ryan
Yeah, it'd be cool. I don't know. I think this movie is going to be a solid 40.
00:06:51
the_popcorn_podcast
think
00:06:52
Ryan
I don't think it's going to be like a 20. A solid 40.
00:06:55
the_popcorn_podcast
for any yeah i No, it's gonna be mean yeah
00:06:56
Ryan

Fuck.
00:07:31
the_popcorn_podcast
Which is kind of upsetting, but moving on.
00:07:35
Ryan
that was expected though same here but I expected to be a little less because it's not as it's more of like a straightforward slasher thing which never they said so yeah so it looks more like action II like she's fighting back um you know yeah you but yeah
00:07:36
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm excited for it though. It says the least cornered one. sort of
00:07:50

the_popcorn_podcast
That's right. I mean, that's the worst person ever. Like it's a bad design. Yeah.
00:09:03

00:09:04
the_popcorn_podcast

00:09:14
Ryan
crow yeah there move like yeah
00:09:18
the_popcorn_podcast
guys I think that there's a chance it could be a solid 60.
00:09:18
Ryan
Why because I think there's a chance it could be a solid good polished 60.
00:09:27
the_popcorn_podcast
If they can be 60, especially with the fucking sequels I've had to witness, Ryan, a 60's like an Oscar movie compared to the other sequels.
00:09:30
Ryan
that a witness audience a six ti like monster movie red meal It's be a 35 two of them are direct to video.
00:09:37

00:11:15
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:11:18
the_popcorn_podcast
I think we should start with the boys. Yeah.
00:11:23
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah. So the boys is episode six. It's called dirty business. Uh, we're going to a party at that night's house mansion and we get to meet the iconic web Weaver, the boys universe is version of Spider-Man.
00:11:23
Ryan
yes
00:11:28
Ryan
we're going to yeah and iconic the police universe
00:11:38
the_popcorn_podcast
who is a derelict drug addict.
00:11:40
Ryan
yeah Yeah, it was great. But quick initial thoughts, I think that this was off the back of the way, In a way, it was small and scaled where it wasn't too many things going on.
00:11:42
the_popcorn_podcast
But quick initial thoughts I haven't written on my notes. I think that this was off the bat right away just the best episode of the season. It was the strongest episode. I liked it in a way small enough scale where it wasn't too many things going on.
00:11:55
the_popcorn_podcast
It was really just the main two storylines going back and forth. yeah And I liked that the entire bat cave sequence was so funny.
00:11:55
Ryan
It was really just the main storyline.
00:11:59
Ryan
And I liked that the entire cave sequence was so funny.
00:12:06
the_popcorn_podcast
I couldn't stop laughing.
00:12:07
Ryan
I on that one. And I wanted to pull away the entire time and I couldn't.
00:12:07
the_popcorn_podcast
And I wanted to look away the entire time, but I couldn't. It was like a car accident.
00:12:12
Ryan
Wasn't
00:12:12
the_popcorn_podcast
And it gets even better when you know that Jack Wade is in the suit the entire time.
00:12:19
Ryan
that's fantastic? then you
00:12:20
the_popcorn_podcast
And then he later brought up the drink and he's like, I could have just voiced all that.
00:12:24
Ryan
like
00:12:24
the_popcorn_podcast
He's like, why? So that makes it even more entertaining that he eats the one this week the whole time.
00:12:25
Ryan
that makes you more
00:12:29
Ryan
yeah and all total author restore Yeah By
00:12:29
the_popcorn_podcast
And all around, I like the Booker storyline with Joe Kastner. And yeah.
00:12:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Those really good those by far the best episode
00:12:39
Ryan
I agree.
00:12:39
the_popcorn_podcast
i
00:12:39
Ryan
you ah It just had the most going on.
00:12:39
the_popcorn_podcast
but
00:12:41
Ryan
It had the most going on within the episode and it contributed the most to the story of the season thus far. So definitely by far the best episode of the season.
00:12:48
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:12:52
Ryan
Um, like you were saying all the stuff with the tech cave. Is that what they call it?
00:12:55
the_popcorn_podcast

00:12:56
Ryan
The tech cave?
00:12:57
the_popcorn_podcast

Ryan
Dungeon. That's fantastic.
00:13:03

Ryan
Um, yeah, I mean that shit.
00:13:05
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:13:07
Ryan
It was just funny. It was back to like the boys just being funny. Cause it's so fucked up and just pushes what should be allowed to be filmed, not just on television.
00:13:13
the_popcorn_podcast
what
00:13:16
the_popcorn_podcast
but um
00:13:17
Ryan

the_popcorn_podcast
It was like, oh
00:13:36
Ryan

00:13:39
Ryan
and and have to go
00:13:41
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm not dealing with that bullshit. Fuck that.
00:13:44

Ryan

00:13:57
the_popcorn_podcast
God damn it.
00:13:57
Ryan
yeah Although that moment I because I just forgot in that moment that it wouldn't do any so I was like, oh my god Yeah, I totally forgot that that happens but it's going to spoilers
00:13:59
the_popcorn_podcast
But, yeah, this whole- Did you?
00:14:06
the_popcorn_podcast
He's just aiming at us at him, stupid fucking head.
00:14:12
the_popcorn_podcast
I like... I feel like anyone who's listening that has seen the episode...
00:14:14
Ryan
we These are always spoilers. Yeah, you gotta see it.
00:14:17
the_popcorn_podcast
Well, you can listen more than anyone listening to the episode.
00:14:19
Ryan
He gives a shit. He shoots Huey in the face, and now he shoots Sister Sage in the dome, and I completely forgot that her brain regenerates until like when she left, I was like, oh fuck, damn it.
00:14:20
the_popcorn_podcast
But you do! Cool.
00:14:26
the_popcorn_podcast
um
00:14:32
the_popcorn_podcast
So you...
00:14:32
Ryan
So I guess, yeah, if you shot her in the heart, she'd die.
00:14:35
Ryan
Yeah.
00:14:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, that's what she said. If I get shot in the heart, I don't know if I get shot in the brain, it goes back.
00:14:38
Ryan
Yep. So, damn.
00:14:41
the_popcorn_podcast
um After that, it was a great shot.
00:14:42
Ryan
It's a good shot though.
00:14:44
the_popcorn_podcast
It was quick. I did like the line where he's like, ah, you might be smart, but I bit you and pulled through.
00:14:44
Ryan
i move it along with yeah hey
00:14:50
the_popcorn_podcast
A scene I really liked, what I think, kind of went under the radar.
00:14:50
Ryan
not really like
00:14:52
the_popcorn_podcast
I haven't seen a lot of people talk about it yet. I loved the scene when, ah after he shoots, Mr.
00:14:57
Ryan
shoot
00:14:58
the_popcorn_podcast
Zagie has a heart attack, he clashes to the ground.
00:15:01
the_popcorn_podcast
I think, oh, panic.
00:15:01
Ryan
He's a panic attack, but It's confused all the time to quote the nurse in that episode
00:15:09
the_popcorn_podcast
He's gonna have to get out he's gonna have a heart attack mentally hopefully not no yeah my on the guitar but My dad but um yeah, he lapses and
00:15:11
Ryan
Yeah, dude, he's American. That was everybody.
00:15:21
Ryan
but yeah he collapseed can we go
00:15:25
the_popcorn_podcast
Kimiko has to go find Adrian.
00:15:26
Ryan
find
00:15:26
the_popcorn_podcast
I liked how she gets him or she drops something in this journey. He's like, what the fuck?
00:15:30
the_popcorn_podcast
You just see her leaning through the rounds with the little kid.
00:15:30
Ryan
yes
00:15:32
Ryan
yeah i
00:15:33
the_popcorn_podcast
um I love the scene when you actually drop Mother's Month off at the hospital.
00:15:34
Ryan
you
00:15:37
Ryan
Yeah, and the little kid he like smiles at you and smiles for a second.
00:15:38
the_popcorn_podcast
And he smiles for a sec. Because he wanted to be a hero.
00:15:41
Ryan
Because he wanted to be a hero.
00:15:42
the_popcorn_podcast
That's why he joined the Seven.
00:15:42
Ryan
That's what he wanted to do.
00:15:43
the_popcorn_podcast
But sadly, that hasn't been what he's gotten to do.
00:15:45
Ryan
And I thought he was a really great student.
00:15:46
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, I thought that was a really great scene.
00:15:49
the_popcorn_podcast
And it shows that Adrian does want to be a true hero.
00:15:49
Ryan
And it shows that he Yeah, he wants to be a good guy.
00:15:54
Ryan
He wants to help people. He's just, you know, It happened. It's the same thing that happened to Starlight. She wanted to be a good guy and help people and then the deep did his thing. So yeah, it's just, it's a fucked up situation for people like that, for soups like that who actually, you know, there are few and far between, but the ones who actually want to help people, it's just shitty because Vault doesn't really let them.
00:16:10
the_popcorn_podcast
So it
00:16:16
Ryan
So that was a good thing and it's pretty, pretty heartfelt.
00:16:17
the_popcorn_podcast
wasn't good.
00:16:20
Ryan
I liked it. Um, I also liked the beginning of the episode when he calls M.M. And he's like, where are you?
00:16:24
the_popcorn_podcast
He's like,
00:16:25
Ryan
I'm like, I'm in fucking Toronto, so they can't hear me. like The fact is, got to go all the way there.
00:16:28
the_popcorn_podcast
work um
00:16:31
Ryan
Because, you know, even if it's not Homelander with the super hearing, Vought is listening everywhere.
00:16:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:16:35
Ryan
They have cameras all over. So it's just.
00:16:37
the_popcorn_podcast
It's just great.
00:16:39
Ryan
It's just crazy to think he's got to go all the way out there.
00:16:40
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm going to go to Saskatchewan, Canada.
00:16:41
Ryan
yeah the i
00:16:42
the_popcorn_podcast

the_popcorn_podcast
No, it definitely has Tesla there. um
00:16:53
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, I like, of course, it opens and... Oh my God. What's the...
00:16:53
Ryan
Yeah, I like, of course it opened.
00:17:00
the_popcorn_podcast
Husband's name, the one that's making the virus.
00:17:03
the_popcorn_podcast
The boyfriend.
00:17:03
Ryan
Oh, The boyfriend.
00:17:04
Ryan
Oh, Serene. Yeah, Serene.
00:17:05
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, Serene.
00:17:06
Ryan
Was that his name?
00:17:07
the_popcorn_podcast
I think so.
00:17:08
Ryan
I think it was like that.
00:17:09
the_popcorn_podcast
But i I like the opening when he's pretty much told like you're going to make this and then you just see, of course, Joe Kessler and Butcher talking to a woman and just trying to convince her that he has to do this.
00:17:10
Ryan
like you
00:17:15
Ryan
<unk>
00:17:20
the_popcorn_podcast
I think guess was like, I'm just going to bash his fucking face in.
00:17:20
Ryan
thank um
00:17:24
Ryan
And I'm not going to lie, Joe Casser, Joe Carragher, I'd love to get more of him.
00:17:24
the_popcorn_podcast
And I'm not going to lie, Joe Kessler, Joe character would love to get more of him. But we'll talk more about that later.
00:17:30
Ryan
But we'll that later.
00:17:33
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
00:17:34
Ryan
Cool, Kerry.
00:17:38
the_popcorn_podcast
I double my notes the whole time.
00:17:40
Ryan
The whole time, when Homelite wrote the idea,
00:17:42
the_popcorn_podcast
um When Homelander brings up the idea of like Congress and how they're going to take control of everything and all that in front of all the billionaires, like the business guys, that entire time while they're like telling Homelander how his plan's not going to work and he has all these mess-ups, all I can plan is the thickest knot in my chest and he's just going to start blasting.
00:17:45
Ryan
congress
00:17:53
Ryan
ah man as
00:18:02
Ryan
yeah
00:18:03
the_popcorn_podcast
The entire sequence, i it felt like someone was grabbing at my heart.
00:18:04
Ryan
like so mean yeah especially when his plan started falling apart because he was you see how heavily he's relying on Sage to be the smart one but he's the muscle and he thinks he's smart but he's not he's just listening to what
00:18:07
the_popcorn_podcast
oh
00:18:13
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:18:17
the_popcorn_podcast
I mean, he's not. He does figure out he's just not.
00:18:18
Ryan
He's not dumb, but he's not he's childish.
00:18:21
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:18:21
Ryan
Yeah, he thinks he's smarter than he is Which you know leads to his downfall, but Newman comes to his comes to his aid and gets his back Coleman Coleman
00:18:28
the_popcorn_podcast
ever My notes, I don't know why that Newman Jesus, dude, she's a fucking G. I think I wrote that. I never told him is he.
00:18:38
Ryan

00:18:39
the_popcorn_podcast
New Misery. day um i love i just I say this every episode.
00:18:40

00:18:42
the_popcorn_podcast
Her character is one of my favorite parts of the entire show.
00:18:45
Ryan
Yeah. Did you know her and Jack Waiter dating in real life?
00:18:46
the_popcorn_podcast

00:18:52
the_popcorn_podcast

00:18:54
Ryan
I was like, did she know? Yeah. I had no idea.
00:18:58
the_popcorn_podcast
um Yeah, the scene where she's explaining that the U.S.
00:18:59
Ryan
yeah
00:19:00
the_popcorn_podcast
has never been a democracy and that these billionaires have always ran everything, these corporations, and that she promises that she gets elected, they will never have to follow any regulation.
00:19:05
Ryan
and she
00:19:09
the_popcorn_podcast
And then she's like, that's how it should be.
00:19:10
Ryan
oh
00:19:10
the_popcorn_podcast
It shouldn't be ran by people. What was the type of cop that they have? Live, laugh, love people.
00:19:17
Ryan
Oh, yeah, which is That is true and people wear like the life is good shirts.
00:19:17
the_popcorn_podcast
People with love, love, love in most, should not be and in charge of the country. It is.
00:19:25
the_popcorn_podcast
Excuse me.
00:19:26

00:19:45
Ryan

00:19:46
the_popcorn_podcast
Newman's a fucking goat. I fucking love every scene that she's in.
00:19:49
Ryan
Yeah, the character is awesome.
00:19:49
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:19:51
Ryan
She's always, she's always scary because I mean, I've said it every episode so far, but her power is the scariest.
00:19:56
the_popcorn_podcast
Mm-hmm
00:19:57
Ryan
Like Homelander is scary because he's so powerful when he has so many powers. Hers is so unpredictable that you literally have no idea what she's going to do or who she's going to kill. And I guess she can kill herself because we see her at that little
00:20:07
the_popcorn_podcast
Joel to
00:20:10
Ryan
sure
00:20:11
the_popcorn_podcast
me I look down on my I was can't um like ah fuck yeah Yeah, that powers really that one is scary and then
00:20:11
Ryan
yeah Yeah It took me say took me like half a second. I was like, okay, it's not real but for a second I was like, is there another one but no

Character Dynamics & Powers in Gen V

00:20:26
the_popcorn_podcast
the The girl from Gen V who can just touch you and change everything. That's a scary power.
00:20:31
Ryan
Oh, yeah,
00:20:32
Ryan
oh and I guess there is another one because the girl from Gen B had the same powers she can control blood and
00:20:32
the_popcorn_podcast
like
00:20:39
Ryan
which we think is Newman's power.
00:20:39
the_popcorn_podcast
which Oh, because Newman says you're the one from the controller.
00:20:40
Ryan
oh yeah yeah The main girl from Gen V is the girl who can touch people.
00:20:42
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Why don't we just see her?
00:20:48
Ryan
I think we're going to get them in the finale.
00:20:48
the_popcorn_podcast
I think.
00:20:50
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:20:50
Ryan
They're going to show up in the finale and like the boys are going to let them out and ah do their own thing or whatever.
00:20:56
Ryan
how they go find
00:20:56
the_popcorn_podcast
Now they're going to fall into the same hole that Marvel kind of falls into. When they're like, well, if the boys let them out and they're supposed to be helping the boys, why aren't the boys in the Gen V season?
00:20:59
Ryan
they're like the boys
00:21:04
the_popcorn_podcast
Like, you know how, like, you always like in Marvel, why is this person not helping this person?
00:21:04
Ryan
yeah Yeah. Yeah. It's like why when a Spider-Man movie wise, New York getting attacked and the Avengers are like, he's got it.
00:21:09
the_popcorn_podcast
what
00:21:13
the_popcorn_podcast
You're like, Vulture's fucking destroying the entire scene. You can we help the boys. And I think, dude, I thought about that when watching The Way Home last time.
00:21:13
Ryan
like he's fine fucking can destroy yeah Tony Island's on fire, guys.
00:21:19
Ryan
We need some help. what that one
00:21:23
the_popcorn_podcast
I was like, yeah, that's a big loophole that there's
00:21:26
Ryan
yeah an avengerss little trip
00:21:27
the_popcorn_podcast
ahp the multiverse And just hundreds of people, like villa evil people about to come through.
00:21:28
Ryan
person and like yeah but i know that's awesome one they
00:21:32
the_popcorn_podcast
But I hope this has something that they kind of fall into, where it's kind of ridiculous that the boys aren't there during sequences and stuff.
00:21:37
Ryan
Yeah. But also like, that was kind of the the good thing of Gen V is like, it was a very contained story in, in get old in the college.
00:21:41
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah champion because they didn't
00:21:45
Ryan
So yeah,
00:21:46
the_popcorn_podcast
When Homelander shows up in the movie, that's such a great scene.
00:21:50
Ryan
it was bad ass and the behind the scenes too.
00:21:51
the_popcorn_podcast
How come are you? Fuck yeah As
00:21:55

the_popcorn_podcast
Huey wears the suit, and the scene when he comes out in front of everyone in the suit, he's like, don't laugh.

00:22:31
the_popcorn_podcast
And they all see him from the front, and they all just giggle.
00:22:32
Ryan
yeah The best Kimiko is like, you look like Times Square Elmo.
00:22:34
the_popcorn_podcast

Seeing him put on the suit, all of his friends making fun of him was such a fun thing.
00:23:17
Ryan
Was such a fun thing.
00:23:19
the_popcorn_podcast
And Webweaver's suit might be the worst suit in the show.
00:23:22
Ryan

And Tech Knight, of course, thinks he's talking to Webweaver at first.
00:23:30
Ryan
And out.
00:23:32
the_popcorn_podcast
And it turns out Webweaver was not just him to be his sidekick, he was said to be his sex slave, that he can torment and pretty much torture.

00:26:00
the_popcorn_podcast
Oh God, it was so fucking terrible. But then when Tech Night eventually just figured out that it is Huey and he's like, so all the holes are just so boring.
00:26:08
Ryan

00:26:11
the_popcorn_podcast
Everyone is the same. Like sometimes you just got to make your own.

the_popcorn_podcast
Do you think it was the actual, what we want to like use that, the web hole.

00:26:22
the_popcorn_podcast
i mean Oh.
00:26:28
the_popcorn_podcast
I hate this show. I hate the images that I have to think of while watching this show now.

Ryan

00:26:33
Ryan
ah huh
00:26:34
the_popcorn_podcast
But what are some of the other notes I want to talk about?
00:26:34
Ryan
what
00:26:38
the_popcorn_podcast
I had a couple of things. Oh, yeah.
00:26:39
Ryan
and then
00:26:39
the_popcorn_podcast
And then eventually, as you said, they do stop Tecnite from making a new hole in the Huey.
00:26:44
Ryan
from
00:26:46
Ryan
and
00:26:46
the_popcorn_podcast
And then they torture Tecnite, Kimiko, Starlight, that's it.
00:26:47
Ryan
and the and bo here and the again fuck ah Then we So we liked people's dad and they said, you can grab my balls, grab my balls.
00:26:52
the_popcorn_podcast
And then Huey.
00:26:58
the_popcorn_podcast
the fuck. So then Kimiko keeps, starts to snag him to get information out of tagline, but of course he's a mastic hiss. So he likes getting stabbed and he says, grab my balls, squeeze my balls. And then inside, what does the mask, it will hurt some more.
00:27:12
Ryan
Then inside was a mass of words and words. The gift was crazy.
00:27:16
the_popcorn_podcast
The game goes crazy, grabs the laptop and they start
00:27:18
Ryan
That's a laptop. And they started.
00:27:20
the_popcorn_podcast
Donating their money to different his mind to different charities and each charity which is more like a little bit more that they're pushing the envelope but i well they're going to get to And then eventually like we're gonna donate a hundred million to black lives matter and tech night loses his fucking mind i got This one donation and that breaks them
00:27:20
Ryan
Dividing their body different, different strategies. And each challenge more like a little bit more that they're.
00:27:29
Ryan
And then it looks like we're going to One donation. And that breaks.
00:27:42
the_popcorn_podcast
And then he gives up that the plan has been that Homelander and Sister Sage have what to use his prisons pretty much as internment camps.
00:27:46
Ryan
a
00:27:50
Ryan
Yeah, which is a good reveal like finally something to their plan.
00:27:50
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:27:53
the_popcorn_podcast
no me say So I guess that the soup, that's what he meant by like, you guys are the gods now.
00:27:54
Ryan
Yeah It'd be very interesting Yeah yeah
00:28:03
the_popcorn_podcast
So they're going to start capturing people.
00:28:05
Ryan
Yeah, I guess so I mean ah Yeah, I assume it's like just people who don't agree like people who try to fight back You know if they can't kill him That's that's what I was thinking but I don't know cuz I can't met like a term in camps for what everybody in the world like Yeah, well, yeah, but that's still probably seven billion people yeah eight You're not gonna have nothing.
00:28:07
the_popcorn_podcast
And then, oh, ah yeah
00:28:14
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah like like that is going to kill them
00:28:19
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:28:23
the_popcorn_podcast
It's just not in suits, I think. It's how he views it. Yeah.
00:28:28
the_popcorn_podcast

00:28:32
Ryan
Well you probably but I don't know
00:28:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Um.
00:28:36
Ryan
It's not a bad like plot development, but it's just kind of like, yeah.
00:28:39
the_popcorn_podcast
It has to take it and go back to this. Maybe it's only in the United States.
00:28:42
the_popcorn_podcast
That's all he cares about.
00:28:42
Ryan
Well, yeah, probably.
00:28:44
Ryan
Oh, there's only soups in the United States.
00:28:45
the_popcorn_podcast
and
00:28:46
Ryan
So that's like the whole point.
00:28:47
the_popcorn_podcast
Really there's no super anywhere really Kind of forgot about that hmm kind of want to see other countries get soups now
00:28:52
Ryan
That's why they want them in the military. And that's why i like the soup terrorist was such a big deal. That's why Adrian can go to Canada and be fine. I don't think there's any soups there.
00:29:04
Ryan
yeah
00:29:09
Ryan
Black noir cut the fucker's head off, so it's not happening one well yeah remember there was Yeah, there was that race he did with the other guy

00:29:37
the_popcorn_podcast

00:30:08
Ryan
And her.
00:30:09
the_popcorn_podcast
And then, of course, she pulls out the one thing that can control Homelander.
00:30:09

And then, of course, she pulled one thing back and then pulled one lander. Better than anything else in the entire world.
00:30:13

And the way they like...
00:30:18
Ryan
And the wave.
00:30:19
the_popcorn_podcast
Well, first of all, they hinted at this a couple episodes ago when A-Train's going through all the medicine in Homelander's.
00:30:19
Ryan
Well, first of all, they keep that.
00:30:22
Ryan
A lot of stuff to do when A-Trains go into
00:30:28
Ryan

She is a villain.
00:30:43
the_popcorn_podcast
She's a villain not in like in a good way just good and likes athlete villains She's not one of them.
00:30:45
Ryan
Finally, in a good way. She's a good athlete, villains. She just ruined it.
00:30:50
the_popcorn_podcast
She's just rude. She gets so mid game cards bring you more attention.
00:30:51
Ryan
She's got some edge. She came back for me more than the problem.
00:30:54
the_popcorn_podcast
Like I don't get the problem.
00:30:56
the_popcorn_podcast
I was just watching it the other day
00:30:56

00:31:11
the_popcorn_podcast
Oh my god, dude, they feel like a full court one-handed bounce pass. to be the specific like put the flock Or they go for a layup and they just hit the top of the back where it's on now.
00:31:21
Ryan
or they
00:31:25
Ryan
and i' say
00:31:25
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm not saying anything against WMA, they'd all probably dog me. I'm not taking away from them. I'm just saying Caitlyn Clark is a baller. You're on camera.
00:31:33
Ryan
Kind of dog you're talking about.
00:31:36
the_popcorn_podcast
Um, but yeah, she uses breast milk and mouth pretty much as Homelander under her control.
00:31:36
Ryan
Um, yeah, she used breast milk and, you know, pretty much has been went out of control. And then we cut.
00:31:42
the_popcorn_podcast
And then we cut to Homelander's actually sucking the breast milk out like a baby laying across her.
00:31:45
Ryan
Sucking the breast. It was fantastic.
00:31:48
the_popcorn_podcast
She rubs his head and says, my good little boy, I'm growing all caps. Her breastfeeding was one of the most disturbing things I've ever had to watch. It was so uncomfortable. Um,
00:31:59
Ryan
Yeah.
00:32:00
the_popcorn_podcast
From there, a scene I thought was supposed to be comedic.
00:32:00
Ryan
From there, as soon as I thought it was going to be a minute, it turned out not to be a minute.
00:32:03
the_popcorn_podcast
It turned out not to be very comedic.
00:32:05
Ryan
And this was Hughie telling Starlin' what happened to Bill.
00:32:05
the_popcorn_podcast
And this was Huey telling Starlight what Ashley did to him.
00:32:09
Ryan
I laughed.
00:32:09
the_popcorn_podcast
I laughed, because thought it was kind of funny.
00:32:11
Ryan
I thought it was kind of funny. But he's like, gee, if he goes by the field, it's lame.
00:32:12
the_popcorn_podcast
And he's like, she she tickled my feet until she came. And I was like, OK, that's funny.
00:32:17
Ryan
And the layout gets funny. But then he starts crying, and he's actually like, distraught.
00:32:18
the_popcorn_podcast
But then he starts crying, and he's actually like, that's not funny anymore.
00:32:21
Ryan
Yeah, fucked up. I'm like, that's not funny anymore. Uh-huh. But yeah, just quick little scene.
00:32:25
the_popcorn_podcast
But yeah, just a quick little scene.
00:32:26
the_popcorn_podcast
There's nothing really comes back. She has hogs on the scene now.
00:32:26
Ryan
There's nothing really selfish to talk to when you see Bill.
00:32:28
Ryan
No. Well, no, because he was crying about his dad.
00:32:29
the_popcorn_podcast
and then
00:32:31
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, but there's a total that's by a horrible thing they have to experience what he is.
00:32:31
Ryan
Yeah.
00:32:32
Ryan
It was kind of like the emotion, like but it pushed him over the edge. Yeah. But I think it was more so his dad than the tickle torture.
00:32:38
the_popcorn_podcast
but
00:32:41
Ryan
I mean, that sucks, but you know.
00:32:42
the_popcorn_podcast
That was more than tickle torture.
00:32:44
Ryan
board they did a lot of
00:32:46
the_popcorn_podcast
They did a lot to that name. We don't know what else happened while you didn't watch.
00:32:48
Ryan
know that
00:32:51
the_popcorn_podcast
um Then we go back to Samir, Joe Kessler, and Butcher in the episode. and I have my cancer such a cool character. I want to see more of him and then we learn That's weird.
00:33:05
Ryan
that's
00:33:05
the_popcorn_podcast
He's telling I can't do this and like why the fuck not you have to do this work And he says like he's like it's impossible.
00:33:05
Ryan
so
00:33:14
the_popcorn_podcast
He's like if we want to make a virus strong enough to go home They'll become so strong everyone would and course ah Butcher sees his wife camera her name
00:33:14
Ryan
want to make
00:33:23
Ryan
yeah
00:33:28
Ryan
back
00:33:30
the_popcorn_podcast
Is that her name? She's in 1-3-0.
00:33:32
Ryan
I mean he says it like every episode in the first two seasons.
00:33:35
the_popcorn_podcast
okay CTE kicking in. Very.
00:33:38
Ryan
the
00:33:38
the_popcorn_podcast
um She's great in 1-3-0, by the way. She's in, like, three season.
00:33:44
the_popcorn_podcast
But yeah, then she starts saying, like, you can't do this. That's Komiko. Komiko. Starlight. And then, of course, she says, Ryan. And she keeps saying why the stream happened. All of a sudden, Joe Kesser cuts her off and says, shut up to her.
00:33:44
Ryan
But yeah, she like and saying and she's saying why this shouldn't happen.
00:33:55
Ryan
And also the joke has to cut her off to shut up to her.
00:33:59
the_popcorn_podcast
and
00:34:00
the_popcorn_podcast
i'm alsogra assume things's not right of course because he's talking to
00:34:00
Ryan
And I've also realized it's going to be fine.
00:34:02
Ryan
It's all going to be fine.
00:34:03
the_popcorn_podcast
figment of butcher's imagination And then we learned that Kessler has been dead his entire time.
00:34:05
Ryan
And have you learned that Mr. President did this entire time?
00:34:11
the_popcorn_podcast
He ah which did not pull him out ah know that one on the mission that they talked about.
00:34:15
Ryan
mission that they
00:34:17
the_popcorn_podcast
And Kessler is just pretty much, what am I thinking?
00:34:19
Ryan
am i
00:34:19
the_popcorn_podcast
He's the bug that we see inside of Butcher. Like that's how I take it.
00:34:24
Ryan
that's how i No, I think the bug is like the thing that jumped out of the rabbit last episode that's how
00:34:24
the_popcorn_podcast
like when
00:34:28
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah. But that's how he keeps talking. Like the way he talks about himself.
00:34:30
Ryan
the way
00:34:32
the_popcorn_podcast
That scene, Kastler.
00:34:32
Ryan
Oh, you think like the bug like is physically talking to him just like this guy.
00:34:36
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:34:37
Ryan
Okay, I can see that. Yeah I I think it's more so just his own sight like butcher psyche is half and half like the angel on a shoulder is Becca his wife the best part of himself and his devil is Kessler so
00:34:39
the_popcorn_podcast
Because it's like the darkest, like most twisted ideas.
00:34:49
the_popcorn_podcast
And the demons. Dude, Jeffrey D. Morgan's a dog. I fucking love him.
00:34:57
Ryan
He's been great and it was a great reveal like when he when he snaps it back.
00:34:58
the_popcorn_podcast
but Yeah, I had no idea. I was getting caught off guard.
00:35:00
Ryan
I had no idea. I was like, oh shit and car Yeah, it was really well done Yeah
00:35:03
the_popcorn_podcast
I was like, what the fuck happened? And I wasn't sure. for i like i quarterous I was like, oh, is this like, does he just see something too from the V? Does he have the combo on me? And then I was like, that's not at all what this is.
00:35:15
Ryan
yeah
00:35:16
the_popcorn_podcast
um So then we learned, yeah, that Kistler hasn't been there the whole time.
00:35:18
Ryan
we
00:35:20
the_popcorn_podcast
And we see the pretty much the reveal of Butcher every time Butcher's talked to Kistler. He's been by himself and he's just, looks crazy in public he starts talking to himself and the girl jogging by stairs at him we see him at the in the one office room where he's dumping liquor and it goes around to the table and just it's pretty much the progress number of reveal like from the yeah that closes out the episode setting us up for what will be the insider which will be episode seven and then we'll have what one more after eight yeah ultimate this
00:35:27
Ryan
crazy talking
00:35:38
Ryan
pretty much like yeah yeah
00:35:44
Ryan
so what
00:35:50
Ryan
yeah yeah made episodes This is indeed the penultimate
00:35:55
the_popcorn_podcast
We need a big thing. I mean, what do we got then?
00:35:57
Ryan
what we got
00:35:58
the_popcorn_podcast
After this episode, we have 10 episodes of The Boys Left.
00:36:00
Ryan
ten
00:36:03
the_popcorn_podcast
In the entire series. So we kind of got set up for this final eight episodes.
00:36:09
Ryan
yeah yeah shows
00:36:10
the_popcorn_podcast
That shows what's coming. And I guess we know it's going to be a final showdown.
00:36:11
Ryan
i guess we know know We know yeah, we know where the story is going we just have to see how it's going to get there Yeah, well
00:36:15
the_popcorn_podcast
I want to know why, how did he end up with this? Because we're not going with the way that The Boys technically end in the books. like the um
00:36:25
Ryan
the books is different from the very start like yeah none of the entire show is different what the whole home line ah that finals from Yeah, but it's so like it's all you can't do No
00:36:26
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, but the whole Homelander, how Homelander eventually, like how that final showdown goes, I love how it is. yeah but You can't do it now because we've already made so many changes.
00:36:39
Ryan
No, but I mean the comic like the show is over the top the comic is ridiculously like Stupidly over the top.
00:36:39
the_popcorn_podcast
but
00:36:43
the_popcorn_podcast
ah
00:36:47
the_popcorn_podcast
no
00:36:47
Ryan
It's it's ridiculous.
00:36:48
the_popcorn_podcast
beautifully over the top
00:36:49
Ryan
You are the only person with that No,
00:36:49
the_popcorn_podcast
and my It's not as good as the show, I like the show more, but I think it's an enjoyable, like, holy shit, like, why the hell does this come out?
00:36:56
Ryan
i no it's ridiculously Garth, what's his Garth? What's his name?
00:37:01
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm not gonna lie, I have no idea.
00:37:02
Ryan
Gartha the guy who wrote the comics It's like Garth Edwards Ennis. I don't I don't remember
00:37:08
the_popcorn_podcast
I read them
00:37:10
Ryan
I know Gareth Edwards, but is Garth something with an E?
00:37:14
the_popcorn_podcast
in, like, my senior year of high school.
00:37:15
Ryan
Yeah, they're just ridiculously over the top.
00:37:19
the_popcorn_podcast
um
00:37:19
Ryan
Homelander's eating babies, but it's not Homelander.
00:37:21
the_popcorn_podcast
it's why. Yeah, it's it's not well not.
00:37:23
Ryan
Yeah, it's not.
00:37:24
the_popcorn_podcast
Of course, I think the show is a better representation of the boys.
00:37:25
Ryan
Of course, I think the show's a better representation of the boys, but it's like how you see comics.
00:37:28
the_popcorn_podcast
But if you're just reading, it's see like how you see comic books.
00:37:30
Ryan
They're definitely way more out of the realm than the movies other than yet.
00:37:30
the_popcorn_podcast
They're definitely way more out of the realm than the movies are that we get.
00:37:35
the_popcorn_podcast
It's just, I don't know, like, I don't mind the boys coming.
00:37:35
Ryan
It's just, I don't know.
00:37:36
Ryan
I don't mind if it was known.
00:37:37
the_popcorn_podcast
I think it's just wild.
00:37:37
Ryan
I think it's just wild. Yeah. I think it's just too wild.
00:37:40
the_popcorn_podcast
It's what's it called?
00:37:40
Ryan
it's what
00:37:41
the_popcorn_podcast
It's like a
00:37:43
the_popcorn_podcast
What do they call how it's doing? We're kind of trying to see it's like a, it feels like a term for it. We just say like crazy shit. Oh my God, there's a term for that. And my mom was like, how would you start to do that? Oh my God, I can't remember.
00:37:43
Ryan
they
00:37:54
Ryan
this turn like Yeah.
00:37:54
the_popcorn_podcast
There's a term like, you just say random shit. Just like, shock value kind of. That's kind of the blue comic is while the show's a good show that has shock value.
00:38:02
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:03
the_popcorn_podcast
But yeah, so we only have two episodes left of the fourth season.

It was a three, Burning Mill.
00:38:32
Ryan
That was a three burning. The murder of King I got on second. King Aegon II's firstborn son, what the, that's a horrible way to write it, the murder of Aegon II, God, the murder of Aegon II's firstborn son Targaryen, has angered him in his courage.
00:38:37
the_popcorn_podcast
The Aegon II's first born son, What the f- That's a horrible way to write that. The murder of King Aegon II- God! yeah The murder of King Aegon II's first-born son Targaryen has angered him and his seeking revenge. His half-sister Rhaenyra also mourns the loss of Jaehaerys, leading to a rift with her main ally.
00:38:52
Ryan
He has his serenia, also near the lost, has leading to a refuge for me now.
00:38:59
Ryan
That's the meaning of scripture in the episode.
00:38:59
the_popcorn_podcast
That's the main description of the episode.
00:39:02
Ryan
I told the page,
00:39:02
the_popcorn_podcast
Let me pull up my notes. Dude, I took pages of notes on this episode, please.
00:39:05
Ryan
i think that's the one for episode two
00:39:08
the_popcorn_podcast
episode 2 is both both Alice and Rene are facing the consequences of the murder of King Aegon's heir while Otto seems to be at
00:39:14
Ryan
okay ah fair enough the drain
00:39:16
the_popcorn_podcast
The Burning Mill, this episode was directed by Guido Vasan Patel and it was written by David Hancock.
00:39:18
Ryan
directed by I
00:39:24
the_popcorn_podcast
This again, kind of like in the boys in my opinion, this was my favorite episode so far, the three. I really liked this episode. I liked where it was kind of setting us all up.
00:39:30
Ryan
think that's
00:39:31
the_popcorn_podcast
I liked from the very start of this episode to the very end, kept me intrigued. It was a lot of, it was a really cool Easter egg that we'll get to.
00:39:36
Ryan
really east strike yeah
00:39:39
the_popcorn_podcast
And yeah, I just liked everything they kind of talked about.
00:39:42
the_popcorn_podcast
Except Christian Cole's dumb ass haircut.
00:39:42
Ryan
so pretty
00:39:43
Ryan
Cool yeah, yeah fucked up dude i saw Somebody said um, who was it Eric?
00:39:43
the_popcorn_podcast
What the fuck was that? we got well
00:39:50
Ryan
I just we had this argument for like 10 minutes which Eric was it I think was the a Eric was the Greens one somebody said that he was the the barber of the Kings guard Now that he's dead.
00:39:56
the_popcorn_podcast
so like
00:40:02
Ryan
He's got fucked up to someone else
00:40:03
the_popcorn_podcast
it's We got to read me you our text conversation from when but I was watching this episode.
00:40:06
Ryan
our text conversation. I was watching this episode. It's a national conversation.
00:40:10
the_popcorn_podcast
it's a it's a pretty short conversation um so i take dry at ten forty five
00:40:13
Ryan
So, except you're running a group of, I go, every fucking house in Dragon Age is R.A.A.R.A.Y.R.H.R.E.H.
00:40:15
the_popcorn_podcast
ah every fucking housethe dragon game is ray r a e r a y right r each r e h
00:40:23
the_popcorn_podcast

Ryan
R.A.R.Y.T.A.
00:40:25
Ryan
R.A.R.H.A.E.
00:40:27
the_popcorn_podcast
And then Ryan says, or A-E, unless they pull a fast one, put D in front of it. I'm like, Jesus, God damn it. I was like, every fucking name.
00:40:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Cause I was writing them. I laid the pause at every like four seconds to write a name and then look it up to make sure I was spelling it right.
00:40:35
Ryan
i was writing no e
00:40:37
Ryan
yeah four seconds write a name Yeah, because it's Reneira and then Reneese and then it's Aegon, Aemon.
00:40:40
the_popcorn_podcast
It's a pretty short conversation.
00:40:46
the_popcorn_podcast
Lucerris.
00:40:47
Ryan
Yeah, Lucerris, Jacerris, and then fucking Joffrey.
00:40:50
the_popcorn_podcast
if equipment what
00:40:53
Ryan
Um, yeah.
00:40:54
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah It's fucking up.
00:40:56
Ryan
Aemon, Daemon. That's great.
00:40:58
the_popcorn_podcast
Um, amon Damon
00:41:01
Ryan
hang on Helena they got up on one normal one and then the Lannister is fucking Jason you go back to Game of Thrones there's a fucking Kevin get the fuck why that's
00:41:04
the_popcorn_podcast
There's some really.
00:41:15
the_popcorn_podcast
uh fucking love the world of game the game of thrones just the universe um the episode opens up between with an argument between the black woods and the brackens about the true ruler which leads to the battle of the um yeah then it's also the wetland right riverlands that's where like the battle things were um Yeah.
00:41:19
Ryan
great the
00:41:28
Ryan
burning Yeah, then it's also the Wildlands, right? Riverlands. That's where, like... Yeah, it's in the Riverlands. Yeah, there are two houses within the Riverlands. Because they're under the Tullys. Yeah. And don't skip the battle.
00:41:40
the_popcorn_podcast
And we don't see this battle. It kind of quick cuts to it.
00:41:42
Ryan
You've got quick cuts to it.
00:41:43
the_popcorn_podcast
and I was really hoping to see the battle.
00:41:43
Ryan
I was really hoping to see the battle. I was, too.
00:41:45
the_popcorn_podcast
So we're going to battle next.
00:41:45
Ryan
So, do you have a battle or something?
00:41:46
the_popcorn_podcast
I guess just showing the outcome.
00:41:46
Ryan
Yeah, but I think this battle is important to show because it's the first battle of the war. I outcome. I mean, the outcome's important, but I think, like...
00:41:53
the_popcorn_podcast
the um like
00:41:56
Ryan
it I still i haven't read the book. You have. bastard. But, um, I think it's important to show the first battle of the war.
00:42:02
the_popcorn_podcast
think show
00:42:05
Ryan
Like this is the first battle of the war, even though the Targaryens weren't present, it was just houses that were fighting for them.
00:42:09
the_popcorn_podcast
the top
00:42:13
Ryan
This was the start.
00:42:13
the_popcorn_podcast
this one so i think there will be they they definitely set it up that a flight's happening yeah
00:42:14
Ryan
So I think kind of skipping over, it kind of takes a little bit away. It's going to make, you know, whatever the battle is this coming episode, I think there should be a battle of this episode. paper Yeah, so I I think it's gonna kind of take away that that this important battle wasn't shown You know, we obviously do see the aftermath in my notes. I just wrote I see dead people there were a lot of dead motherfuckers Yeah, I really wish they'd showed it not just for the for the battle part I thought it would be cool.
00:42:37
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:42:41
Ryan
But also because of its importance But it was you know, I'm disappointed Yeah
00:42:44
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, I feel like maybe it's definitely a mix of budget wise because there's so much good. These battles are going to be drastically bigger than Game of Thrones battles its but mixed with all the dragons and all that.
00:42:50
Ryan
spell yeah
00:42:54
Ryan
mix yeah that
00:42:56
the_popcorn_podcast
And then at the same time, I feel like they kind of talk about it and I'll get to that and put the notes and stuff.
00:42:58
Ryan
They kind of talk about it, and I'll get to that with notes and stuff. They kind of talk about it, like, is it willing to act like this before?
00:43:02
the_popcorn_podcast
They kind of talk about it like, is it really a battle of this war? Like they kind of argue about it in King's Landing if this is so counts as the war.
00:43:06
Ryan
Like, they kind of like to kind of hate the planning. Yeah. And say, it counts as a war. So that's not like a war.
00:43:10
the_popcorn_podcast
So maybe that's how like you're trying to like, is it actually about the war yet?
00:43:11
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is it actually not a war yet? Yeah. Or is this just an argument that escalated drastically?
00:43:14
the_popcorn_podcast
Or is this just an argument that escalated drastically?
00:43:16
Ryan
Mm-hmm. But. Because they aren't taking it to tell these people.
00:43:17
the_popcorn_podcast
Because they are technically the Tully's people.
00:43:20
Ryan
Well, no, they're like, they're their own house under the tellings.
00:43:22
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, they're under the Tully's terms.
00:43:23
Ryan
Yeah. But they've been arguing for centuries.
00:43:25
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, centuries.
00:43:25
Ryan
Yeah, centuries. i
00:43:25
the_popcorn_podcast
I love when you talk about Tully and like, he doesn't know shit.
00:43:27
Ryan
He doesn't go shit.
00:43:29
the_popcorn_podcast
um
00:43:30
Ryan
Dude, by the way, was that... and Do you think that was the Blackwood kid from the first season? The one that tries to... Oh, he tries to marry Reneira?
00:43:37
the_popcorn_podcast
oh shit
00:43:37
Ryan
Remember the little kid and he stabs the Blackwood? Or not the Blackwood, the Bracken? Yeah.
00:43:41
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:43:41
the_popcorn_podcast
listen
00:43:41
Ryan
That's what I...
00:43:41
Ryan
When I saw him, I'm like, yo, is that our boy?
00:43:43
the_popcorn_podcast
no
00:43:44
Ryan
And then, you know, he's probably fucking dead now, but...
00:43:45
the_popcorn_podcast
Well, we see his sword stabbed into someone.
00:43:48
Ryan
ah we seen I sort of stabbing as well. Well, yeah, the Bracken kid had it some through his neck.
00:43:53
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:43:55
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah but soga with stop probably not So from there we move to the funeral for Ark and Eric.
00:43:55
Ryan
Yeah. But... sorry He won't still be there. There's a lot of bodies out there.
00:44:04
the_popcorn_podcast
It's both Eric either way.
00:44:06
Ryan
Yeah.
00:44:06
the_popcorn_podcast
It's easier for me to separate them.
00:44:07
Ryan
yes
00:44:09
the_popcorn_podcast
Just that really quick. Then we go from to Reneer and Rainey's talking about how Otto did not, they did not believe that Otto is the one that called for this assassination attempt on her life.
00:44:12
Ryan
re about not believe the
00:44:19
Ryan
seems Which is a good call.
00:44:19
the_popcorn_podcast
It seems too brash for him to do something. Yeah, because he wouldn't do that.
00:44:24
Ryan
No.
00:44:25
the_popcorn_podcast
And Otto didn't like the idea of this.
00:44:27
Ryan
Um.
00:44:28
the_popcorn_podcast
And Reneer thinks Allison allowed the assassination attempt to happen, but it wasn't her call to throw it to be done. like She knew it was happening was okay with that but didn't wasn't the one to put the idea out there which again she Does not know right? She didn't know that they were doing that Unless cold cold Yeah Great might be the best thing to see and so actually no we'll get to it my favorite scene of the season is this episode I
00:44:45
Ryan
didn't Um. No, yeah, I don't think well, I'm he may have told her later But yeah the conversation because remember they tell Otto in the second episode like we're gonna do this not I was like, are you fucking stupid? you know <unk> get
00:45:04
Ryan
Okay, yeah join
00:45:05
the_popcorn_podcast
see um Back in King's Landing, Chris and Cole sits with the thoughts as he is joted by being called for his first council as the Hand of the King as called Cole heads to his first meeting as Hand of the King.
00:45:16
Ryan
a
00:45:17
the_popcorn_podcast
Aegon has hired a bunch of new Kingsguard who are kind of just very lax. They don't seem as a proper as the ones we've seen over the years and previous season.
00:45:22
Ryan
Yeah, it seems like he just hired his buddies yeah, which yeah Yeah,
00:45:28
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, which probably gonna come back. Not great for him down the line.
00:45:33
Ryan
especially if they can't really fight too because that I mean we haven't seen him fight yet But they're not they don't care as much as the other Kings card members you see later in the episode Yeah, if they can't fight and you know somebody takes it takes a run at him Fucked up yeah
00:45:33
the_popcorn_podcast
sorry
00:45:35
the_popcorn_podcast
I mean, they're not. They don't. Yeah, because it's kind of important. and but What are you going to do?
00:45:50
Ryan
Aemon can't, Aegon can't fight.
00:45:51
the_popcorn_podcast
You can't
00:45:54
Ryan
I mean, I'm sure he can, but not as well as like Aemon.
00:45:55
the_popcorn_podcast
not as well as someone.
00:45:57
Ryan
Yeah.
00:45:57
the_popcorn_podcast
or anyone's going to attack him.
00:45:58
Ryan
Yeah.
00:45:59
the_popcorn_podcast
ah The Blackwoods and the Brackens have, as Ryan said, talked about earlier, they had had the first battle of the war.
00:46:04
Ryan
know
00:46:04
the_popcorn_podcast
Aegon believes that it is a success and that it does count towards a war, but others in the room do not agree with him. Not believe that it was a victory, and some don't even believe that this should count towards the war in total yet.
00:46:14
Ryan
It's really, it's not a victory for anybody because there was so much loss.
00:46:17
the_popcorn_podcast
Money dead people.
00:46:18
Ryan
On both sides you can't neither side can really claim victory. It was just a total loss and that's like
00:46:24
the_popcorn_podcast
And that's like, just war in total. Like if you just have a mass chasm like that, where every both sides take so much heavy losses and nothing really changes, no one moves forward, no one moves back, no one wins.
00:46:30
Ryan
and nothing
00:46:33
Ryan
so yeah only time
00:46:34
the_popcorn_podcast
The only time you win is moving forward because you can lose more people sadly and still win.
00:46:36
Ryan
yeah
00:46:38
the_popcorn_podcast
It's more if you move, if location change that you take a position which they don't.
00:46:39
Ryan
it's more
00:46:43
Ryan
yeah so really
00:46:43
the_popcorn_podcast
So really there is no win to this. It's just sadly a loss of life. um and Cole then says that he's going to take Char- he's going to charge so the Riverlands wildly and then take Harrenhal.
00:46:52
Ryan
river and take
00:46:55
the_popcorn_podcast
As soon as he said that, I was like waiting with fingers crossed.
00:46:56

the_popcorn_podcast

00:46:59
Ryan

Just send him. Fuck, Cole.
00:47:02
Ryan
Yeah, I
00:47:02
the_popcorn_podcast
He's the w- I- God, I hate him.
00:47:05
Ryan
did love seeing Aiman sitting at the table doing like the Jack Sparrow coin flip through the fingers.
00:47:08
the_popcorn_podcast
The coin.
00:47:11
Ryan
Yeah It's always cool when something does like whenever you see that in the movie or TV show you're like, oh this guy's cool.
00:47:12
the_popcorn_podcast
so
00:47:16
the_popcorn_podcast
In the position of Dan Craig does it first time ever saw it great movie first off secondly That
00:47:18

That's from Jack Sparrow when he turns into a skeleton and and't seen that's why the one best one not seemingly that's right so Yeah, I mean dragons are nukes
00:47:27
the_popcorn_podcast
the first one yeah, I haven't seen that that's why the one I've seen the least yeah the not seen the least seen least recent That's why I saw him as a kid um Then we are told that there will be no dragons at this point. They're not going to use dragons because events. If you won dragon, it's at least both sides. Dragons will be released.
00:47:48
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, exactly.
00:47:49
Ryan
ah You can't and if dragons fight, it's everybody's dead Yeah,
00:47:53
the_popcorn_podcast
Isn't it Einstein's like cool? He's like World War Three. We fall with nukes and bombs and guns.
00:47:56
Ryan
new
00:47:57
the_popcorn_podcast
The World War Four sticks and stones.
00:47:58
Ryan
yeah no he says I Think he says world war.
00:48:01
the_popcorn_podcast
and the
00:48:02
Ryan
I don't know what world war three would be fought with the world war four. We fought with sticks and stones Just bringing up the call duty quotes
00:48:05
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, that's pretty that's exactly what happened if the dragons come would burn everything um And then they said that beggars gonna be left behind to protect the city, but Eamon still will go and fight pu yeah s No fuck this new car de
00:48:18
Ryan
Yeah, when you that was a death quote. I think in modern warfare, I think in the first modern warfare it was. They gotta bring those back. The worst was fucking infinity war, not infinity war. Infinite warfare? They did um they did fake ones. Like they had quotes and it would say like whatever made up military thing was in the game.
00:48:34
the_popcorn_podcast
like there
00:48:39
the_popcorn_podcast
Really? Why?
00:48:39
Ryan
They didn't have actual quotes.
00:48:41
Ryan
I don't know, it was so dumb. But it was like the same quotes, they just changed who it was.
00:48:43
the_popcorn_podcast
um like Who said it?
00:48:46
Ryan
yeah
00:48:47
the_popcorn_podcast
What the fuck is going on? Aegon says that he wants to fight in the battle in with his dragon, but again, he's denied you don't want your king going to the front lines and fighting the war.
00:48:50
Ryan
find about
00:48:53
Ryan
this trying
00:48:57
Ryan
yeah
00:48:58
the_popcorn_podcast
No matter if your king's a great warrior or not, you don't want your king going out there.
00:49:02
the_popcorn_podcast
but Aegon being Aegon, this decision doesn't stick well with him, so we'll come back to him.
00:49:02
Ryan
but
00:49:07
Ryan
well
00:49:09
the_popcorn_podcast
um Then we are back at...
00:49:13
Ryan
Dragonstone.
00:49:13
the_popcorn_podcast
Dragonstone?
00:49:14
Ryan
Is that your phone?
00:49:14
the_popcorn_podcast
I just forget where that is, what the place is. um We go back to Dragonstone, and Massara wants to be rewarded for saving Rhaenyra, so something that me and you talked about last episode was that does she tell them that's how they find out, so we did save them, and
00:49:21
Ryan
and starting
00:49:26
Ryan
that yeah She did. She did. She did.
00:49:32
the_popcorn_podcast
Then Reneer is kind of talking to her and trying, I'm sorry, i wants to join the court.
00:49:37
Ryan
And
00:49:38
the_popcorn_podcast
Reneer's court, and she's like, why would I do this? And she's like, you could still be working for them, even with doing this for me.
00:49:43
the_popcorn_podcast
But then Masara talks about that she wants to punish the High Towers, what they've done to her and what they've done to everyone else.
00:49:43
Ryan
And she wants to punch the high tech school.
00:49:46
Ryan
They felt the heart and what they've done. Yeah.
00:49:49
the_popcorn_podcast
That she's on Reneer's side and wants Reneer to rule.
00:49:50
Ryan
she's on I don't, it's not a bad idea because she could be a great master of whispers. The only thing with her is that if she's still holding a grudge against Damon, then her trust can be, then her allegiance can be put in the question. Wasn't that a, when she's with Damon on Dragonstone, isn't that like, that was like a final shot at the time there wasn't it?
00:50:06
the_popcorn_podcast
Wasn't that the f- when she's with Damon on Dragonstone? Isn't that like the f- that was like the final shot before the time jump, wasn't it?
00:50:14
the_popcorn_podcast
It's like them sitting there.
00:50:14
Ryan
It's like men sitting there.
00:50:16
Ryan
no and No, no, remember the final shot is when um coals about to kill himself in the garden or by the weirwood tree and allison comes out He's like, no We can bang later.
00:50:16
the_popcorn_podcast
When they're the-
00:50:25
Ryan
Just give it a couple of years Yeah, that step of before the time
00:50:26
the_popcorn_podcast
Is that- is that before the time jump you saw in him?
00:50:30
Ryan
because remember damon takes the dragon eggs yeah and goes and flies off and he's like she's pregnant she wasn't and Yeah, and autos remember he's like his mum as far he's like i'll kill you out and i was like, no you won't dickhead
00:50:30
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah. It is. Yeah, it's in the go.
00:50:38
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, cuz I murdered that.
00:50:45
the_popcorn_podcast
oh What does he say about the, there was that line that we loved in the first season.
00:50:45
Ryan
what he say about
00:50:46
Ryan
that line ah
00:50:48
the_popcorn_podcast
A cup from your something son. There's a line the first season when they're standing on the bridge in Dragonstone and he has the sword out and he says something.
00:50:52
Ryan
the first season they're standing Yeah, you quote yeah that all those scenes on the bridge were great because they did they did it twice later before and after the time jump Yeah, cuz remember Renier flies in Cyrax Maybe
00:50:57
the_popcorn_podcast
And you quoted on the show and it's still one of my, it's. awful Yeah.
00:51:04
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah Yeah, well, don't do twice the time jump once after because then there's something on the bridge walking the other time. Yeah.
00:51:16
Ryan
With the dragon is the one with aiming because aim they're about a fight on the bridge and then Reneira flies down with the dragon It was like a third Damon stop. Yeah.
00:51:23
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:51:24
Ryan
Yeah, that was cool. I was before Yeah
00:51:27
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, pretty timed up As once yeah, I think it is a good idea to get Missouri on your side because I mean ah What are the whispers what do you call the council person that's in charge of it Yes,
00:51:31
Ryan
<unk> sorry yeah
00:51:35
Ryan
yeah
00:51:41
Ryan
one of the you call it that I just said it two minutes ago, and now we can't think of it. The Master of Whispers, is that it?
00:51:49
the_popcorn_podcast
but has
00:51:51
Ryan
Yes, that's a huge, as much as the...
00:51:51
the_popcorn_podcast
yes that's a huge as much as um
00:51:54
Ryan
It's what Varys was. Yeah.
00:51:55
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah What's Renier's father, what's his name King Juceras Juceras, you serious?
00:51:56
Ryan
And what, I mean... What's his name?
00:52:00
Ryan
King Varys? Varys? No.
00:52:02
the_popcorn_podcast
No, the Seras J.A.
00:52:03
Ryan
Varys? Varys. Varys. Yup. Yeah, that's one of them.
00:52:06
the_popcorn_podcast
Or VA. It's one of them um because he didn't want one Which was huge downfall to him and I think I think it's the most useful council member you can learn it's the
00:52:08
Ryan
Because he didn't walk, which was a huge downfall. And I think it's the most useful council Yeah, even though it's the least trustful council member, because even in, like, Varis was doing his own thing, um, Laris, fucking god damn it, Laris, the clubfoot, he's doing his own thing.
00:52:31
the_popcorn_podcast
well ah
00:52:33
Ryan
He has his own reasons for for what he's doing. I mean, the the master whispers are always playing their own game. They're always trying to get to the top. Um, no, here's the mastery coin.
00:52:41
the_popcorn_podcast
finger come there's does he become hand? he does right?
00:52:47
Ryan
No, I don't think so.
00:52:48
the_popcorn_podcast
for me that's a little finger becomes hand
00:52:49
Ryan
No. I don't think he became hand. He became Lord of the Perinol. Not Lord. Was it Lord?
00:52:57
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, it'd be the Lord.
00:52:57
Ryan
I guess it'd be Lord, yeah, if you're in charge.
00:52:59
the_popcorn_podcast
um After this, we then go back to Dragonstone. Well, we are at Dragonstone, I'm sorry.
00:53:04
Ryan
rain
00:53:05
the_popcorn_podcast
Reyna is going to take care of Rhaenyra's children while this whole war is going on, because she doesn't want to lose any more of her kids.
00:53:07
Ryan
Which is smart. it's That's a good idea. Yeah.
00:53:13
the_popcorn_podcast
Get your kids out of there. You don't want, especially how this war is going on already.
00:53:14
Ryan
yeah especially
00:53:15
the_popcorn_podcast
One child's been killed on both sides.
00:53:17
Ryan
Yeah, and keep keep a ah keep a couple dragons over there.
00:53:17
the_popcorn_podcast
You don't want any more.
00:53:21
Ryan
Keep taking a couple eggs. Make sure they're safe. All good. You know, they can trust the people in Pentos because they took care of Damon and that this is awesome.
00:53:27
the_popcorn_podcast
so
00:53:29
Ryan
Provost and Pentos is sick.
00:53:29
the_popcorn_podcast
problem
00:53:32
Ryan
um Yeah, that's the whole other time.
00:53:32
the_popcorn_podcast
That whole like part, yeah that's not part of the main story is always great.
00:53:36
Ryan
Yeah, it is.
00:53:37
the_popcorn_podcast
like
00:53:37
Ryan
It is so cool. Like that's just one of the things about I almost said Lord of the Rings Game of Thrones.
00:53:40
the_popcorn_podcast
and name
00:53:42
Ryan
Just the world in general was that like Westeros is where the story happens. But it's so small compared to the rest of the world, because S.O.S.
00:53:47
the_popcorn_podcast
so yeah
00:53:50
Ryan
is huge. Sothros isn't talked about, but it's also big and cool, but we don't need to go there.
00:53:51
the_popcorn_podcast
so
00:53:55
Ryan
And then there's got to be stuff west, too. and north Yeah, north of the wall is sick.
00:53:58
the_popcorn_podcast
North of the wall is it forever.
00:54:01
Ryan
Yeah. But I mean, there's definitely stuff west of Westeros, which is you know what Arya goes to try and find at the end of the show.
00:54:02
the_popcorn_podcast
but i
00:54:07
Ryan
But yeah there's got to be like North America type thing.
00:54:08
the_popcorn_podcast
Oh, you owe me an apology.
00:54:10
Ryan
We just don't know about it yet.
00:54:11
the_popcorn_podcast
I even went back to the podcast to even for my next point. I realized what the last episode I told you that Dean was going to Harrenhal.
00:54:15
Ryan
Really? less
00:54:19
the_popcorn_podcast
You said no.
00:54:19
Ryan
Yeah, I did I wasn't sure I didn't because our argument was who controlled Heron Hall was of the greens of the blacks and I assume the green still had it if you associate my Yes yeah The strongs had it yeah
00:54:23
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah.
00:54:26
the_popcorn_podcast
Green's kind of like if you associate layers to the strong's and tell you by that you would say the greens, but we learn Really had no Malaysia at the time So, yeah Yeah
00:54:35
Ryan
The Strongs have it, but the Strongs fucking hate Blaris. So they don't want to support the Greens. So I

Game of Thrones Universe Expansion

00:54:42
Ryan
was wrong. But what I was right about is that Seasmoke is back, motherfucker. It was him. It was Seasmoke. Because the other sister, I forget the girl, Damon's daughter's names. I always forget their names. Yeah, Rana and it's like Laney's maybe?
00:54:52
the_popcorn_podcast
I rain as one of them
00:54:56
the_popcorn_podcast
iphon
00:54:57
Ryan
Or was that his wife's name? The other girl.
00:55:00
the_popcorn_podcast
I don't remember.
00:55:01
Ryan
I don't remember.
00:55:02
the_popcorn_podcast
Dude, the names are so confusing in the show.
00:55:03
Ryan
So many names. Um, yeah, but she's like, oh, she smokes back and he needs somebody.
00:55:05
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, yeah you're right.
00:55:09
Ryan
So, i't know you and I I wrote in my notes suddenly a Batman movie.
00:55:10
the_popcorn_podcast
um but As I said, Damon arrives at Harrenhal, and I will say this was the coolest set so far of the show. The set, the atmosphere, the rain, it was so cool watching clear the rooms with a sword.
00:55:25
Ryan
That's all I wrote.
00:55:25
the_popcorn_podcast
It's just bringing him dark.
00:55:26
Ryan
Cause all the bats swarmed through. I was like, yo, what is this?
00:55:28
the_popcorn_podcast
It's so awesome. I loved it. And then he claims it pretty much by himself. He Lee punches one guard.
00:55:35
Ryan
That was great.
00:55:35
the_popcorn_podcast
He doesn't doesn't take any effort for him.
00:55:37
the_popcorn_podcast
ah Simon Strong, Simeon Strong, Simon. Yeah. He pledges his allegiance to Reneira.
00:55:38
Ryan
I think it's Simon.
00:55:44
Ryan
Yeah.
00:55:44
the_popcorn_podcast
And then he also says he does not associate Laris as a strong, he and they have no loyalty to him.
00:55:46
Ryan
yeah
00:55:51
the_popcorn_podcast
because they think he's done he's killed you of this of their family they think yeah Damon wants to repair her involved so they can bring in a garrison of soldiers which is a lot of soldiers for those who don't know like massive but and or they yeah and then war happens again
00:55:51
Ryan
Which is smart because they know. They killed his dad and brother. Yeah. So. they
00:56:06
Ryan
Yeah, but they're not going to repair. I mean, we seen Game of Thrones is not repaired. Well, they could do it in like temporary thing and they could totally set up something. But yeah, but Karen was all fucked up because the OGA gone.
00:56:16
the_popcorn_podcast
um
00:56:22
the_popcorn_podcast
They got the conquer.
00:56:23
Ryan
He fucked it off.
00:56:25
the_popcorn_podcast
I still want to see him.
00:56:26
Ryan
so we are
00:56:26
the_popcorn_podcast
Well, we are. We're getting dunking the egg.
00:56:28
Ryan
We're going to dunk an egg, but that's after this.
00:56:28
the_popcorn_podcast
We're going to. That's after.
00:56:33
the_popcorn_podcast
No, it's not.
00:56:33
Ryan
Yeah, it is.
00:56:34
the_popcorn_podcast
I thought this egg on the conquer on my head.
00:56:35
Ryan
no
00:56:36
the_popcorn_podcast
That's what it's all about.
00:56:37
Ryan
No, that is not it. No, that is way after that.
00:56:38
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah. Yeah. I thought this is game of Thrones. yeah
00:56:41
Ryan
No, this is Dunkin' Egg is like 80 years before a Game of Thrones.
00:56:44
the_popcorn_podcast
um get Oh, really?
00:56:47
Ryan
This is 200.
00:56:48
the_popcorn_podcast
Why can't we see egg on the conqueror?
00:56:50
Ryan
This will be a big show, dude.
00:56:50
the_popcorn_podcast
Why can't we just watch this man just torch people?
00:56:54
Ryan
jimmy me
00:56:54
the_popcorn_podcast
Give me a six episode miniseries then.
00:56:57
Ryan
They cannot fit that in six episodes.
00:56:57
the_popcorn_podcast
a Show him conquer.
00:56:58
Ryan
They can absolutely not.
00:57:00
the_popcorn_podcast
I just want to see the dragon go to war.
00:57:00
Ryan
No. That'll be four episodes and I hope they do show it because I think house of the dragon with a title like house of the dragon can be an anthology series and do so good game i yeah yeah I mean, it's a massive world and there's The craziest shit is that george r martin?
00:57:03
the_popcorn_podcast
i
00:57:10
the_popcorn_podcast
Well, because Game of Thrones itself can now be an anthology. Game of Thrones, something. Because this is Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon. Then you can do Game of Thrones, something else.
00:57:23
Ryan
I mean if the motherfucker would write the books that he has to write
00:57:26
the_popcorn_podcast
e's done
00:57:27
Ryan
It's not done, it's never done.
00:57:29
the_popcorn_podcast
and everyone's like
00:57:29
Ryan
He's been saying it for 15 years, Dom. Winds of winter, yeah, when, wait, Song of Spring is never coming out.
00:57:34
the_popcorn_podcast
um Yeah wins of winter is the one that's done That's funny we did the when we went to Myrtle Beach two years ago now almost
00:57:38
Ryan
Yeah.
00:57:40
Ryan
It's gonna come out in two years. it was funny
00:57:48
the_popcorn_podcast
it was supposedly done and it has yet to come out.
00:57:51
Ryan
as you It's always done, or he's like doing his last passes on the couple, last couple chapters.
00:57:52
the_popcorn_podcast
so
00:57:56
the_popcorn_podcast
um The next scene is as I said, Christian Cole's new haircut we see for the first time, and I later went and Cole's new haircut was fucking horrible.
00:57:56
Ryan
nice
00:58:00
Ryan
i leave my Yeah, it sucks. We also you also skipped the um, or maybe it comes later the the small folk dude the the guy who goes to the bar and he's like Is that later okay?
00:58:05
the_popcorn_podcast
maybe No, that didn't happen yet. I did it scene by scene.
00:58:13
Ryan
There's bullshit dude, there's no way That no keep going though, we'll get to it later Talking about coal and his dumb ass haircut dickhead
00:58:16
the_popcorn_podcast
oh
00:58:20
the_popcorn_podcast
go yeah messed me up he threw me off my line
00:58:26
the_popcorn_podcast
He's joining Cole in the battle awesome's brother those just didn't know um And then Cole requires Allison's favor the favors are second handkerchief It's a very big thing in medieval time.
00:58:32
Ryan
they pull a car
00:58:36
Ryan
right
00:58:38
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, which I'm shocked Eddie.
00:58:39
Ryan
i shot
00:58:40
the_popcorn_podcast
She gave it to him in public I'm high closed doors or something but uh
00:58:41
Ryan
yeah
00:58:44
Ryan
No, I think what when a queen does it to a knight it's like Beyond for sure because it's it's different than the was it the The like lady of love and beauty or whatever the thing that Rhaegar gave to in Liana that sparked the whole war in Game of Thrones
00:58:48
the_popcorn_podcast
I don't
00:59:05
Ryan
Well, it wasn't in the show, but they talk about it. It's like, if you're, if you win a joust, because remember, remember in the first season Damon had a jet or ah before you went to jail. So you like gave her an ear of the flowers and it was like, you're the prettiest woman here. Take this.
00:59:18
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
00:59:19
Ryan
I love you so much. And then, yeah, so you can do that. But I think the favor is just like, he doesn't show guy first episode
00:59:24
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah. Wait, doesn't she give up in the first episode? Doesn't she give a favor?
00:59:27
Ryan
thanks so probably.
00:59:29
the_popcorn_podcast
um
00:59:30
the_popcorn_podcast
um it's Yeah.
00:59:30
Ryan
Yeah.
00:59:31
Ryan
It's just like, I hope you don't die. Good luck. Yeah.
00:59:34
the_popcorn_podcast
ah Um, I don't know.
00:59:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Thought many people would find that role.
00:59:35
Ryan
me if you
00:59:38
Ryan
with
00:59:38
the_popcorn_podcast
Okay. Then back at Dragonstone again, we're jumping around a lot right now.
00:59:41
the_popcorn_podcast
Uh, Ramiro will not allow. for dragons to fight dragons. She wants to win the war with swords and believes that the greens believe the same thing, which they do, as we saw earlier in the episode, which again, they're just nukes, but they're dragons now.
00:59:41
Ryan
we're
00:59:48
Ryan
do yes yeah It is the smartest thing They will no it's a fucking TV show they're gonna it's gonna happen
00:59:53
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, you can't, but even though I want the dragons to come to the war. Cause of course it makes better.
01:00:00
the_popcorn_podcast
No, we'll talk about that when we get to the the, I wrote notes on the trailer for this week.
01:00:04
Ryan
ah very
01:00:07
Ryan
I mean, the trailers have shown the whole time is going to
01:00:10
the_popcorn_podcast
Uh, the council wants to hide Renaer and then fight the war themselves, which Renaer takes offense to cause they're pretty much saying, Oh, we got it. We're the men. We can take control of this war.
01:00:21
the_popcorn_podcast
But, um, yeah.
01:00:21
Ryan
but
01:00:22
Ryan
They're doing it with good intentions. They want to keep her safe, but the the underlying tones is like you're a bitch and you're dummy and fuck off.
01:00:25
the_popcorn_podcast
Well, that she came down.
01:00:31
Ryan
We got it.
01:00:32

How can she be a heir of Driftmark? Again, you just see how the Game of Thrones world works. How's Dragon World? It doesn't matter how good you are at something. If you are in line for something, you're most likely youre going to get it.

But then Aegon is convinced not to join the war yet, not to fly the dragon in. Then we learned as Ryan talked about earlier that these new Kings guard aren't at the same level as the ones we've seen before.
01:04:18
Ryan

01:04:20
the_popcorn_podcast
The ones in Game of Thrones or anything in between because you're supposed to stay.

01:04:55
the_popcorn_podcast
Oh.
01:04:57
the_popcorn_podcast
againsts is on the fly Oh, then then we meet. We made Damon's possible best a brother in the bar, as Ryan talked about earlier, who sighs over in here, and as he kind of says this, here comes Aegon busting into the room.
01:05:13
the_popcorn_podcast
And he doesn't hear him, but he's bringing his squire to get his stick.
01:05:13
Ryan

01:05:48
Ryan
I can't I mean kind of it's maybe yeah but also like the king um I forget the king before Viserys Viserys his father and Damon's father like he was everybody said he was the best king he had the longest rule since well out of anybody um up to this point at least I don't remember if somebody lasted longer afterwards but um he was apparently like the best guy like he was the best and nobody
01:05:49
the_popcorn_podcast
And he's got the hair. Yeah, but if he's a bastard, then that would make sense.
01:06:00
the_popcorn_podcast
from
01:06:04
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
01:06:16
Ryan
Nobody ever said that he ever cheated or did anything else. So I don't I don't know that he could have been a That he would have had a bastard I mean, it's always possible.
01:06:20
the_popcorn_podcast
don't
01:06:26
the_popcorn_podcast
so
01:06:27
Ryan
It's always possible, but yeah, but I don't know.

01:08:50
the_popcorn_podcast
Anytime I drag and come down, he gets to do something.
01:08:52
Ryan
yeah
01:08:52
the_popcorn_podcast
It's always so much fun to watch.

the_popcorn_podcast

01:09:04
the_popcorn_podcast

01:09:05
Ryan
But you can very easily miss it. Just made it so much cooler that like ah for like he just noticed that.
01:09:06
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah ask me
01:09:11
the_popcorn_podcast
And that's what like, cause he knows that something was off, like somebody has right.
01:09:11
Ryan
And that's what...
01:09:12
Ryan
Because he noticed this topic at all. Something that's right there.
01:09:15
the_popcorn_podcast
And then he looks up and notices more.
01:09:17
the_popcorn_podcast
And yeah. And ah just seeing them riding like from overhead, you see like the, treeline yeah.
01:09:17
Ryan
yeah and
01:09:20
Ryan
Yeah, you see a little glint off the armor and she notices that so cool and Allison's brother starts crying like a bitch um so long you You know Dean and one fried them dude
01:09:24
the_popcorn_podcast
Great scene. Um, Sagan. Bailah then tells Rhaenyra and the council about Cole and his soldiers. The council wants Rhaenyra to attack with the dragons, but says that she must think about it. And you can tell right away that the no one is very happy with this decision. Seems like she doesn't know what to do. Not a great leader for them.
01:09:47
the_popcorn_podcast
They would burn down that wood.
01:09:48
Ryan
Damon would have been if Damon was in that council do you were gone. yeah
01:09:51
the_popcorn_podcast
Nothing would have been left. um Damon still is at Harrenhal in his chambers, and we see that someone attempts to enter, and he puts swords through his doorway so that no one can open the door, but someone's bashing him, trying to get in, and no one gets in.
01:09:54
Ryan
go that arab see it a
01:10:03
Ryan
back kind of get
01:10:06
the_popcorn_podcast
So then Damon decides to go and find this person.
01:10:07
Ryan
day
01:10:08
Ryan
as he leaves his chambers, though, he begins to appear singing at the size of the college, which which is one of the loudest points to be ever, so I did not, this came out left.
01:10:08
the_popcorn_podcast
As he leaves his chambers, though, he begins to hear singing and decides to follow this noise. He finally finds the singing, and it is, which is one of the wildest myths of the episode. I did not, this came out of left field. um
01:10:22
the_popcorn_podcast
And the same turns out to be a young Rhaenyra, Millie Alcock, sitting on the head of Jaehaerys, Helena's son, saying, why do you always disappear and leave me to fix it?
01:10:22
Ryan
And the singing was definitely yelling in the ear of, well, it's going on the head of Jairus, Elena's son, and saying, why do you always disappear and leave me in the face of it?
01:10:31
Ryan
Which was such a wild thing to look at,
01:10:31
the_popcorn_podcast
Which was such a wild thing to look at.
01:10:35
the_popcorn_podcast
Because at first, I was like, who's that?
01:10:35
Ryan
so
01:10:35
Ryan
first flu sharing money out there it just
01:10:37
the_popcorn_podcast
And I was like, holy shit, Millie Alcock. It just didn't click in my head who it was. a who was
01:10:40
Ryan
I put in my notes, I know for a fact Tom jumped and cheered when Milialkak showed up.
01:10:44
the_popcorn_podcast
So excited.
01:10:45
Ryan
Because you've been waiting for that the whole, the whole offseason in this season.
01:10:47
the_popcorn_podcast
I knew was and knew that she would come back.
01:10:49
Ryan
Yeah. But it also, it works for the episode because that's, that's the Reneer that he loves. Like he's still with Reneer now, but he loved and cared about that Reneer.
01:10:57
the_popcorn_podcast
He with her man.
01:10:59
Ryan
That's the Reneer that he still cares about.
01:11:01
the_popcorn_podcast
I think he still loves her man. I just think the person he fell in love with is not the Reneer that she is now.
01:11:05
Ryan
I don't know. I think, I think he's still like,
01:11:07
the_popcorn_podcast
i think Maybe it's something with her being like innocent at that time.
01:11:09
Ryan
maybe
01:11:12
Ryan
Maybe I don't know.
01:11:12
the_popcorn_podcast
She's been had kids with other people that maybe. I don't know.
01:11:15
Ryan
I think it's more so like that's He he respects Renier as his wife and is like I'll you know, you're the queen I'll do whatever but he also wants to be king I think Yeah, I don't think so
01:11:24
the_popcorn_podcast
you
01:11:26
the_popcorn_podcast
I'm surprised he hasn't cheated on her. He hasn't, right? i think
01:11:30
Ryan
No, I mean, like I said, like he respects her as a, as, you know, a wife and he cares about that. But seeing young Reneira is more impactful to him because that's, that's just more important.
01:11:40
the_popcorn_podcast
That's the first thing.
01:11:41
Ryan
and nice
01:11:41
the_popcorn_podcast
I like how we all, I just remember last year, like, last season, I was definitely cheering on like Damon and Renee to get together.
01:11:44
Ryan
like yeah yeah
01:11:48
the_popcorn_podcast
And we were just so, like, Damon throws a line and she was like, ew!
01:11:48
Ryan
and so game with those Ew.
01:11:52
the_popcorn_podcast
And this one, we're like, yeah! Cheering it on. But then as Damon, she says this to him, Damon awakes at the foot of the Westwood tree, where he is told that...
01:11:59
Ryan
way Here would put Westwood dumbass Creepy bitch, dude.
01:12:05
the_popcorn_podcast
That he's told that he will die again. and it scares him a little bit. Me and Tolga are gonna die. It's a fair reason he's scared.
01:12:14
Ryan
Yeah, no which and I Don't know who she is.
01:12:16
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, she is a strong, I think. I think she is.
01:12:22
Ryan
I just saw imagine she's like a witch which is cool get a little more magic going
01:12:24
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, I mean, she's like, I love the magic.
01:12:29
Ryan
here
01:12:29
the_popcorn_podcast
Veneer asks Massari about Allison's movements and wants to talk with her face to face as she will enter King's Landing on a fishing boat and walk with the sea dressed as one of the nuns.
01:12:30
Ryan
not
01:12:33
Ryan
she want Sick.
01:12:37
the_popcorn_podcast
I think, I don't know if they're actually called nuns, but they dress like nuns and they're religious people, so I called them nuns.
01:12:38
Ryan
I that I don't know if they're like nubs. They're nubs, yeah.
01:12:43
the_popcorn_podcast
We then see Reneira does find Allison in the church, and Reneira wants to find a way for peace. Allison wants a surrender from, of course, Reneira wants her to accept that Aegon is this, Aegon II is the true king now.
01:12:54
Ryan
is, Agon's second is true. Yeah. I mean, obviously she wants that.
01:12:58
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah
01:12:59
the_popcorn_podcast
And I then my next note in all cast is Emma Darcy and Olivia cook are so fucking good at acting This was next month years is them sitting there kneeling and talking Amazing.
01:12:59
Ryan
and i all and the darcy Yeah.
01:13:09
Ryan

01:13:16
Ryan

01:13:17
the_popcorn_podcast

01:13:18
Ryan
Oh fuck. Emily Carey.
01:13:24

01:13:30
the_popcorn_podcast
So it's great that they were able to find two people, again, two credible actors out there that, of course, are great in their own work, but now see them come together again and get to have this fierce conversation.
01:13:30
Ryan
so
01:13:41
Ryan
Well, they're cast at first really em and Darcy and Olivia coke were cast first and then they casted Yeah
01:13:43
the_popcorn_podcast
Really? um Then they found someone that looked like a young woman. I guess that's easier to find someone.
01:13:51

01:14:02
the_popcorn_podcast
My favorite scene of the season so far, top, one of my favorite scenes of this show so far, I just, I like how they have to kind of like, they get a little loud, but they can't be too loud because they're trying to hide that she's here.
01:14:02
Ryan
Great. Great. Great.
01:14:05
Ryan
Great. Great. Great. Great.
01:14:09
Ryan
Great.
01:14:12
Ryan
yeah just a great scene
01:14:13
the_popcorn_podcast
It was just a great scene.
01:14:14
the_popcorn_podcast
And then Alison speaks of how Luceris changed his mind about Reneira.
01:14:14
Ryan
house
01:14:15
Ryan
so how
01:14:18
Ryan
Great.
01:14:20
the_popcorn_podcast
Viserys changed his mind about Rhaenyra being the queen and that Aegon should take the throne.
01:14:20
Ryan
serious my about care that so
01:14:25
the_popcorn_podcast
And then Rhaenyra realized that he had been speaking about the Song of Ice and Fire, which is such a cool, like, again, this scene's so good.
01:14:29
Ryan
again yeah seeing it all
01:14:31
the_popcorn_podcast
Just seeing it all kind of, because you see it on Rhaenyra's face as she's figuring it out.
01:14:32
Ryan
because you still know We didn't because Olivia or not Olivia not Olivia cook Allison mentions the song of ice and fire Renier is like wait, he's talking about that shit Don't worry about it
01:14:34
the_popcorn_podcast
yeah alice and but you That's not him! but Um, but then Allison seems to know that there has been a mistake. You just see it on her face. She goes, she goes, uh, white from this, but she refused to accept and says, well, what's done is done now.
01:14:56
Ryan
yeah like Yeah, I mean I I love that because you see Allison like she realizes like oh fuck I am wrong.
01:14:57
the_popcorn_podcast
And Allison tells me that she is too late and that the war is coming.
01:15:02
the_popcorn_podcast
Like she was.
01:15:06
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, I think.
01:15:07
Ryan
I think Allison realized that I That isn't what he meant. He wasn't talking about this Aegon. He was talking about the Conqueror.
01:15:13
the_popcorn_podcast
So Alice.
01:15:14
Ryan
So, Allison kind of realizes, like, oh, shit, we are on the wrong. But it's too far going now. You're not taking all that back. You're not just going to give the throne up and be like, sorry.
01:15:22
the_popcorn_podcast
Yeah, I'm in too much now to stop that You've
01:15:24
Ryan
I misunderstood it. My bad. Buddy, you got to stand out. You got to take the armor off first. You look like a dumbass. Stand down. It's OK. She's the queen. Relax. You can't do that now.
01:15:34
the_popcorn_podcast
already had two kids have been killed from each family that's now been a battle I
