Introduction and Date Clarification

00:00:01
Speaker
Hello, you are listening to the all new anti-fanboy podcast for the week of 9-10-2023. How is everyone doing? My name is Devin Topek and with me is Chris Galante. Hey, Steve Oteri. Yo. And John Suarez. Hello. I don't know why I gave you a nickname. It just felt right. It felt right this week. I wanted to, uh,
00:00:32
Speaker
You're very welcome. Thank you. How come you said at 910? Isn't it 910? I mean, it is 910, but it's 910. But why didn't you say September 10? Yeah. And why didn't you just go in and say September? Why didn't you say the day after instead? Yeah, because it would be the day before. So, Devin, people won't be listening to this until the day after. Oh, you're right. They'll be listening to it tomorrow, potentially. Can I quote you in saying you don't think you think people should forget?
00:01:04
Speaker
Chris, I have no idea what you're talking about, so I guess I did forget. Oh, boy. So.

X-Files Anniversary and 9/11 Reflections

00:01:10
Speaker
Guys, we're here to mark the 30th anniversary of the X-Files. Oh, the truth is out there, guys. The truth is out there. That is not a joke either. It is the 30th anniversary of X-Files today. Wait. Never mind. I was like, so wait, they got the day. I was in premiere the same day as 9-11. They got the day before. They got the day before.
00:01:24
Speaker
Devin, I mean.
00:01:33
Speaker
Good for them. Good on them. X-Files. Getting it in there before the big problem. You are right, though. I did say 910 because I guess it was rattling around in my brain. You were like, I've been broken by the day.
00:01:48
Speaker
Yeah. Well, you know, forget. So you didn't forget. I just, you know, everybody's just saying that. The question is, I asked you, should people forget? That was the question I asked you, Devin. Man, I can't wait for that Zoomer president who's like, man, whatever. This is sauce. Sauce. What's the deal? Tower 11 sauce. Mid.
00:02:12
Speaker
Yeah. I'm stoked. I'm ready, guys. I'm not ready for tomorrow, guys. I'm not. No? No? It's just going to be, they're going to celebrate it with doing it over again, right? Isn't that how it was? No. Oh, shit. Really? Oh, no. Shit. You know, Chris, I say the same thing about not being ready for tomorrow, but I say that for every day.
00:02:38
Speaker
Every day's a 9-11 for Steve. I go into bed and I go, oh, I'm not ready for tomorrow. Oh, boy. You know, I just kind of, I don't wait to not be ready until the morning of where I go, I'm not ready. You know what I wasn't ready for? You know, Devin, you know what I wasn't ready for? September 10th, I was in a comfortable little cocoon thinking, all romantic comedies are true. You could run to the airport and get through security, even if you're late, to meet the one that you love.
00:03:07
Speaker
and fall in love, but the day after that all changed. Yeah. And now and now nobody can stop their loved one from getting on that plane. And let me tell you, that's bullshit. OK, because they should keep that going because romantic comedies really suffered because of that. Well, here's the thing. They did change that, Chris. They changed it because people keep getting stuck at the front where they're like, oh, I'm sorry. We're going to have to charge you for two seats.
00:03:35
Speaker
Oh, that's the added conflict that they have to get through to see their loved one.
00:03:41
Speaker
They're like, before they get on the plate. You have to buy the old, not one. That's a two seater. You're an American. Now imagine, imagine a Ryan Reynolds, a young Ryan Reynolds. No, I can't. No, no. Young Ryan Reynolds only has to pay for one seat. I'm sorry. I'm thinking about the clumps. Okay. Well, Sandra Bullock would have to show up an hour and a half before Sandra Bullock clump Sandra Bullock clump before he clumpified in this example so that she could stop the flight.
00:04:09
Speaker
to protest her love. How's she going to stop the flight? Hold on, Chris. Well, it's 9-11 now. She can't. She would get shot. She would get shot if she tried to stop a flight now. Look, we're going to have to turn on an episode of- Chris, was Red Eye pre or post? Red Eye. Post 9-11, right? I think it was post.
00:04:28
Speaker
Pretty sure. How'd he get in? Whenever I watch Moneyball, I'm always like miffed. Dude, literally they made their their child fly seven days for 9-11 alone. She's a tough lady, man. Yeah. You know, he said he's like the danger is past where the danger is baseball.
00:04:50
Speaker
Yeah. Well, if you recall that scene, Steve, she says the only thing you have to fear is the money ball. And then she gets on the plane and she and their father is shook. And he says money ball is the mind killer. Are we in some kind of money ball? Yeah, that's that titular line dropped money. I thought money ball was going to be a big hamster ball like in American gladiators, but filled with money. See, that's the thing. And you would think it's like some sort of
00:05:19
Speaker
some sort of show where somebody's in a ball, like roller ball, and they have to get money to get out of, you know, to in the ball. Mm hmm. Yeah. Grabbing as much cash as they can while they're in the money ball. You know, I think money ball would be a good twisted metal character. You know, speaking of, I watched that whole show.

Review: Twisted Metal Show

00:05:42
Speaker
I watched it all. Congratulations. Thank you. It wasn't me.
00:05:48
Speaker
It wasn't as nearly as bad as I thought. That's such a good review for somebody to watch. Yeah. I mean, listen, I don't think I'd be like, you got to watch Twisted Metal. I don't think I would say that. But. Shockingly better than I thought, and I don't think I'll give it that much more praise than that, but I will say
00:06:15
Speaker
very cheap looking show, which isn't like the show's fault. Right. Like I don't really put that too much on the show. It's just like the budget is the budget. Well, Devin, you know, this podcast has been on Axle Watch until you finish. You know, can I tell you? Oh, yeah, please. You see a little bit of Axle's back. Oh, that's all. Listen.
00:06:40
Speaker
Yeah. Hashtag backsl baby boy. I'll say this, man, those last like two, three episodes, I was like, oh, I'm like feeling this good. Like it was a really good ramp up to like the end of that show. You know, I imagine the axle scene is just a guy with his arms held out. And he's like, if I had two big wheels, right? I had two big honking wheels on the things I would know. Body armor.
00:07:08
Speaker
Can we get this guy some big honking wheels? He's just standing there with his arms out on the sides, just admiring what could be. Is Calypso in the show?
00:07:22
Speaker
So no, no, fuck you. Well, you hear his voice, but you don't see. Oh, okay. So he's like, for sure. He's for sure. Like he exists in. I have an ending plan for you. Yeah. Um, back in. Yeah. It's back in, back in. Um,
00:07:49
Speaker
I will say some all time bad needle drops like, and again, this is probably more budget, but you're like, why that song? Like this is a, why not any other song? And it's like, they're like, this is the one we could afford. That's such a pet peeve of mine. And they just fuck up there. Yeah. And again, like there's, there's the moment, right? Where it's like, it's like the, the plot points all kind of converge together.
00:08:16
Speaker
And like they're all in their cars and they're all about the fucking annihilate each other. And then you're like, Oh man, this is great. And then the next episodes, like the final episode starts. And it's just like that I'm going the distance song. Like I'm going for a speed. And I'm like, this is a terrible, like there are so many better options than this bad song. And, um,
00:08:42
Speaker
You know, I'm kind of kind of the mind that there are certain songs that are in movies that cannot be used again. Like a certain movie has nailed a song so well that it's almost like if I hear it in another movie, I'm like, oh, yeah, it's over you that that song has reached its zenith. cinematically, you can't ever come near it.
00:09:08
Speaker
I'll give an example. I'll give it. Yeah, please. Layla in Goodfellas, where they're showing off all the bodies that that has been murdered for the La tons of heist. Okay, I don't I don't think you can use Layla again. I think that song is
00:09:26
Speaker
Goodfellas only. Goodfellas. I'm serious. You know what? I agree. You know what I mean? There are certain songs that fit a scene so perfectly that if they're used again, you're like, oh, no, please don't. It's already done. They did it perfectly. You can't use that.
00:09:46
Speaker
All right. OK, so I agree with that one. Chris, can I ask you about one? Yeah, sure. Go ahead. Because I don't know. I don't think it meets like the proper level. The the lobby shootout dragula scene in The Matrix. What? What? We're not dragula. Whatever that song is.
00:10:07
Speaker
It is in that movie. Yeah, it is. He's right. It's in the club scene in the very beginning. I'm trying to remember what song they. It's like the techno version of Dragula too, because they're in like a techno club. It's the first time that Neo meets Trinity.
00:10:28
Speaker
Yeah, I guess that song is called spy break. I mean, I don't know if I did hear that song in another movie. I'd be like, what the fuck? That's the matrix. You'd be you'd be turned off. You'd be like, this doesn't belong.
00:10:45
Speaker
Yeah, that's yeah. I'll say the twist of the metal. It's not like just like this is it was just like bad. Just like what? No, like whoever was and that's not the only example, but like whoever was in charge needs to do better or find somebody else because not not a great job, but like I'll be honest. The metal Mary from Devon, obviously. Yeah, it's like a really hard man. It's a slave. Fuck. And it was
00:11:14
Speaker
It is probably a season two watch, you know. Whoa. Ten episodes or like 30 minutes each. Like they're not. I'm going to live vicariously through you, Devin. Yeah. Listen, it kind of gave me. This is the closest comparison.
00:11:32
Speaker
And and it's not nearly as good, but it gave me vibes of like that first Cobra Kai season where you're like, this should be good. And I, Chris, I know that's not going to. No, no, but for anybody else or anybody else watching right or listening. Yeah, it was kind of like, why is this? This should be fucking horrible. And there's there's something there, you know, and I think a lot of it is
00:11:59
Speaker
due to the characters of John Doe and quiet. Oh, that's Anthony Mackey and Stephanie Beatriz. Yeah, he was and I never really watched. What was it, Reno? Brooklyn Nine Nine. Yeah, I never watched Brooklyn Nine Nine, really. So she's funny. She's goodness. So, you know, Kevin, if I can piggyback off of your your your twist metal,
00:12:29
Speaker
I recently enrolled in the Amazon First Preview Club. And guess what guys, it paid off this week. I watched something that was given to me that is not going to air until October.
00:12:52
Speaker
I wish I was motherfucker. No, I had I had to sign an NDA though. Oh, so you definitely can't talk about it. I can't talk about it. Can you? Is it a movie that we were planning on watching? So actually it wasn't a movie. It was a TV show. It was an animated TV show. Oh. That I got to watch.
00:13:15
Speaker
And it was a pilot episode of apparently a show, I could say this, can I even say the title or is that? I would just think it really hard into my text messages. Um, I was, I was, I will tell you how I felt. That's not wrong, right? If I don't talk about it, I can tell you how I feel about it, right? You could probably be vague. You know, Chris, describe some marshmallows. Describe some marshmallows to me.
00:13:42
Speaker
There was the comedy of the marshmallow that I'm thinking of was a little hit or miss and it wasn't as funny of a marshmallow.
00:14:00
Speaker
that I thought it was going to be. Not as jet puffed as you'd hoped. Not as jet puffed as I'd hoped. Interesting thing about it, though, a little caveat to it, though, that made me probably want to watch another episode was that it was a singing marshmallow. Oh. So that was like, oh, that's cool. Interesting singing. And what nationality was this mushroom mushroom marshmallow show? I almost said that.
00:14:28
Speaker
Um, it was an American produced. OK, OK. American produced marshmallow. American produced marshmallow. And it was pop. This marshmallow is very popular on YouTube before it made the big jump to Amazon Prime. Apparently, yes. But yeah, probably not best to. And also, I think this is a marshmallow review, too. So that's 100 percent. I'm talking about marshmallows here. Yeah.
00:14:57
Speaker
It's the animation of the marshmallow could have been a little bit better in my opinion, too. And I will say this was a rough cut of a marshmallow. It wasn't like the standard. It's not the final version of the marshmallow. No, no. So maybe things will change a bit. But it was very it was a very short marshmallow.
00:15:20
Speaker
Which I mini, it's a mini marshmallow. And I felt like it could have been a little bit bigger, could have puffed up. Was it just one, one episode? One marshmallow. One marshmallow. Just one marshmallow. I got to eat. That's it. And, and I had to answer a bunch of questions about the marshmallow.
00:15:40
Speaker
I gave it a fair and honest. I gave it a fuck. I think I hope you said that. It's a fuck. What? What do you do with that? Listen to my podcast. I understand what that means. Also, I love how Chris is like, I, I signed an NDA. This is the thing.
00:16:00
Speaker
No, no, don't do that. I mean, what did they expect? It's like the secret that you're not supposed to tell, but it's so stupid that you should tell everybody. Of course, of course. Because it's just a stupid show on something on Amazon. On Amazon. Yeah. I'm glad that they gave me the opportunity to watch it, though. And once it comes out, I think I'll give a pretty decent review.
00:16:27
Speaker
I'll watch it. I'll watch the whole thing. Yeah. Yeah, you're on the hook now. I'm on the hook. That's the way I feel about it. So you were also watching an anime, were you? Yes, I was. I watched.

Anime Spotlight: Monster and Comparisons

00:16:42
Speaker
I was very interested when I read that. I watched the first 12 episodes of an anime called Monster, which a longtime listener, Vicious Smith, on our on our Discord suggested to me. And I've actually heard about it before.
00:16:58
Speaker
through a YouTube channel, which is called The Evil Eye. Okay. The Evil Eye is basically a YouTube channel that breaks down evil characters throughout media, anime, movies, television shows. Quite well. I love that channel. It's very dry, but I really enjoy the deep delve into
00:17:19
Speaker
like evil characters like Judge Holben in in the. Oh, is it the analyze an evil? Analyzing evil. Yes, it's a violent right. The violent violent. Thank you. It was a violent. But yeah, I heard about this anime called Monster, which the premise is a genius surgeon saves the life of a child over a mare in his hospital mares suffering from a heart attack.
00:17:47
Speaker
The mayor eventually dies and he is disgraced. But the child goes on to be a prolific serial killer. And the surgeon feels guilty and ends up trying to hunt this person down. And it's very grounded very much in a real world. It actually takes place in the early 90s in Germany.
00:18:13
Speaker
So there's a lot of like the Berlin Wall coming down. There's a lot of bats in the show. And it's very grounded. There's no supernatural elements. There's no sci-fi elements. It's a surgeon hunting a serial killer throughout Germany. A Japanese surgeon. He's Japanese and everybody else is German in the anime. So you watched the first season?
00:18:40
Speaker
I don't know. There's Netflix says there's one season and there's 70 some episodes in that season. So I am looking at 74 episodes. Yeah. I watched the first 12 episodes of it. You know, like that show, I guess that would be off season. I would say, yeah, you watched you watched a good chunk and you know, like anime kind of.
00:19:04
Speaker
It's not like they get a pass, but like, you know, there's so much and so much of it is I don't want to say skippable, but do they do the thing where it's like the intro, the first like five minutes of the episode is just the last five minutes of the last episode. Yeah, so you can. And the last and the great thing about Netflix is it'll skip all of that and just get into the episode. So you're really only watching like.
00:19:28
Speaker
Like, again, this isn't really an excuse for how it's done, but it's like when you think about it, you're only watching like 12, 15 minute episodes. Yeah. So you can chew through it a lot quicker if you kind of know where the skip points are. It's it has its anime tropes. It has a main character. It has a lot of narration for the main character trying to break down the the genius serial killer that he's chasing and
00:19:55
Speaker
all of his moves and various things that he's done, that classic anime trope where somebody is talking to themselves like, I can't believe he did this. And then explaining exactly what he did and why it was so impactful in that realm. Chris, I'm sorry. Did you ever watch Death Note? I can't remember. No, I didn't. I never watched it.
00:20:22
Speaker
It comes with a big caveat, but it's like I think if you kind of if you're digging monster and again, you're saying tropes and things like that, but like the first three quarters of Death Note is like amazing. And then it has one of the most ridiculous falls off a cliff I've ever seen. I'll tell you this, man, I like monster.
00:20:47
Speaker
for the specific reason that it isn't something supernatural or some sort of science fiction or super science. Like it's very grounded. It takes the approach of a person training to hunt people and also like the serial killer is barely in the show. Like he's very much working within the periphery of the show and you're just seeing sort of the aftermath of the things that he has done.
00:21:17
Speaker
And I like all of that. I think what makes it stand out from a lot of the anime that I do watch is it's so grounded in reality. So maybe that's the route I need to go with anime. There's a ton of anime that is just normal ass stuff.
00:21:36
Speaker
Yeah, you know, like I know like that. I watched a boxing anime for a while. Nippo or something. Oh, you may know. Oh, thank you, John.
00:21:47
Speaker
Yeah, I watched that for a bit and that's sort of grounded. I mean, like seems like some of the boxers have like signature moves in it. Of course. Yeah. I mean, obviously, Chris, of course. Right. But like, I think what sets this one apart is it's not really set up like that. It's very much just like almost a procedural story of a man hunting his greatest failure that he thinks in his mind is his greatest failure.
00:22:16
Speaker
Only because he's such a great surgeon. Like, that's a very anime thing too. Are those anime intros like, do they slap though? Um, it's pretty good. It's pretty good. It kind of reminded me of True Detective a little bit. Okay. So it's not like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's like swirling shots of the guy standing. No, it's a close. It's very subtle where it's just a man, the main character running, like something is chimping him.
00:22:42
Speaker
Like he's an anime. I don't believe it. Yeah, this sounds like you've had a fever dream. I wouldn't say it's subtle. I would not say it's subtle. Like there's there's they go very hard in the paint with certain things. And I get that. But I like the overall plot that is very grounded and very simple. And I think that there needs to be more anime like that. You know, at least I need to watch more.
00:23:10
Speaker
You know, I'm with you there, Chris. I'm a sucker for strangely realistic anime. It's weird, right? Like, yeah, it's kind of like you take away all the trappings, the normal trappings of anime that I'm familiar with. And so many other people are and you just you're left with them plotting and creating interesting characters and.
00:23:31
Speaker
And I feel like that it's very bared down in that regard. And I like that. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm looking at a top 10 animes to watch if you liked Monster.
00:23:45
Speaker
Oh, really? I don't believe this one at all. What's that? Number one, Full Metal Alchemist, brother. I haven't seen I haven't seen Monster, but it's like that might be just name a list of animes. Yeah, I almost I almost teared up watching this, too. Really? Yeah, there's there's a there's a particular character that I really loved and I
00:24:11
Speaker
Because of this anime and the way it's written, I know he didn't have much time on this earth. Yes. No. Well, I I am not to like one of you, but I saw during an episode of Twisted Metal.
00:24:27
Speaker
We find out. Needle's Kate's backstory. Not Needle's. No one understands. So much pain is fine. Can I say? Needle's, he gets jealous of his co-star. He's like on a show, like a sitcom.
00:24:53
Speaker
And he's very jealous that he keeps getting outstaged by his dog, Co-star. And then he goes crazy and kills the dog. Yeah. It's like weirdly, it's like the one weirdly real moment in that entire show. Cause I was like, Oh my God, I don't like sweet tooth. And it's like all shows try to make you like sweet tooth.
00:25:14
Speaker
Um, like I will say, I will preface this by saying monster does not have a English dub. It's all, all subtitles. That's a big one. That breaks you a little. Um, but I'm so I'm really interested in it. I think I'm going to give it the, uh,
00:25:32
Speaker
the whole run. I'm gonna watch the whole thing. Because honestly, there's no good movies out right now, folks. It's fucking September. And even before a strike, September meant that's where all the shit gets thrown out into a wall. Yet the streaming services are still trying to raise the prices.
00:25:51
Speaker
I don't know. Sorry. Sorry. Instead of being $13, it's going to be $17.99. Excuse me. I've noticed what Netflix is doing. I notice how they're trying to to keep their profits up during the strike. They've been outsourcing a lot of their television and movies. It seems like I've seen a lot of like Indian shows and English, Japanese shows. So they they're going outside the country.
00:26:21
Speaker
for their media teams. Pro. Which can't be bad. Seems kind of underhanded. You know, thank you. I mean, you know, they suck everybody. All the producers in this in this strike suck. They're all terrible people and they're losing money, which is good. I'm happy. Yeah, it's me happy. I have a I have a question. Has anyone watched One Piece?
00:26:50
Speaker
Nope. The Netflix. The Netflix. Yeah, I heard it's great. Yeah, everyone says it's good. Am I interested in it now? No. Here is the thing. I think one piece isn't interesting to anyone who isn't a fan of one piece. That's it. You know what, though? I don't know if I buy that because it's like it was massive on Netflix.
00:27:15
Speaker
It was massive, but also like you remember last week when I went through, like, what were the top shows of that Sunday and like Emily is awake was the number one show. Yeah, I. Yeah, sure. But it's crazy. It's not even on the top 10 in the US. OK, it's number nine right now. I was curious. Yeah, because I know that that anime has a huge fan base. So right. That was that was curious to me knowing that they were only ninth.
00:27:44
Speaker
in viewership, you would think today. Well, but the thing is, the people that were into it blew through it in one day. Yeah, that's pretty typical. Right. Right. I mean, I'm I'm interested now. You might have to. You might want to watch the anime, though, Devin. That's I don't think so. Just be just because if you love the show, it is only
00:28:12
Speaker
eight episodes. I almost said three, but then I would be like, oh, I'll fucking watch it tonight. Yeah. If I loved it, honestly, if I loved it, I probably would. But it's just dude. It's so much. Yeah, I don't even know when one piece started. Like if it's a thousand episodes, thousand episodes is ludicrous and obnoxious. Yeah. It's like, dude, he didn't complete his goal.
00:28:40
Speaker
This is worse than Pokemon, dude. It's like- Hey, man. Whoa, bro. Dude, come on. He became Pokemon Master. Come on. Like, what? A month ago? Yeah, but still, there's a lot of Pokemon, dude. Like, come on. You know how many brass rings we've given a child to collect across the world? The fact that he did manage that is insane. How many seasons of Pokemon are there?
00:29:02
Speaker
I don't think it's the amount of seasons. I just think it's like the time. There's an episode for every Pokemon, Chris. There's about a thousand of them now, I bet. Okay. How many seasons is a Pokemon? I posted, I posted the first episode of the 1993 manga to anime classic slam dunk.
00:29:23
Speaker
Just watch that instead. Is Ash, is Ash like an old man? No, he's like three years older. He's three years older. But Red, who Ash is based off of in Pokemon Sun and Moon, is like a grizzled old man. Not grizzled old man. I would say he's like definitely in his like mid 30s. He's like our age.
00:29:45
Speaker
And he kind of runs like a Hawaiian anime anime is a grizzled. Oh, basically. What was his name from Dragon Ball Z was right. Master Roshi. Yeah. Yeah. Master Roshi is like 26 and yeah. All right. Hold on. I'm tallying up the the amount of Pokemon episodes.
00:30:09
Speaker
I don't know. I don't really want an answer to that. Oh, I do invest it Can we can we transition this to talk about the Castlevania trailer? Yes Because holy shit that blew me away man, yeah, fuck It looks so good. Are you kidding me? Fuck They had the fucking rondo music playing they had everything in it
00:30:37
Speaker
Yeah, it was just that he's just the right amount of douche. I love it, man. Kind of the cocky, which is like the Trevor Belmont esque type, you know, like God, I'm gonna walk it again right now thinks he knows everything. Yeah, it's me. How many episodes is this going to be? They say.
00:30:55
Speaker
I hope it is uh, no idea three episodes like the first season also car when he's playing the rondo music Ryu fucking headset or his headband on his ryu headband
00:31:07
Speaker
No, no, no, no, no, no. That's like the number one complaint of all the Castlevania. Like they like waited. They waited so long for like them to do like a Castlevania record drop. And like when they did do it, they were awesome. Yeah. But like I'm glad that we got it right here in the trailer. Like it's like it's here. I think what was it? Bloody tears. Yeah. It's bloody tears. Yeah. Yeah. Oh man, that was good. Oh shit. That's like one of my favorite.
00:31:37
Speaker
fight scenes I've ever seen, I think. I mean, I was so when they when the three of them entered the castle and the music starts playing. Oh, man, I was sick. Did we watch a trailer that was just that in something before this song from this? I can't remember. This is bloodlines, bloodlines from Rondo from Rondo. Yeah. He didn't do a whale flip, though. Steve, so I can't give it a 10 out of 10. But he does do the thing where he throws all the knives as his superpower. Yeah. So sick. Yeah.
00:32:08
Speaker
I mean, yeah. It's going to be crazy, man, because you know, we're going to get a certain is is if it's if the writing is going to hold up. Well, sure. Yeah. You know, what about a Castlevania show? And I think it's going to sound really ridiculous. I don't think it needs to be that well written. No, doesn't. I think you just need a service. Give me the fucking fan service, Devin. Well, what kind of writing?
00:32:36
Speaker
I gotta pump the break. We got Rondo Blood and then it'll lead right into Symphony of the Night. The writing's already there. They just gotta do that. That's all. I gotta pump the breaks on this because there is a beautifully written scene where Dracula is crying.
00:32:49
Speaker
over the toys that he made. The original show was beautifully written like that was like they gave us like like the most beautiful decadent like frosting on top of this incredible cake.
00:33:08
Speaker
But I feel like it's easy to just use that skeleton and have it be good, have this. I mean, you are right. It's just I was not expecting to get as invested. Yeah, I wasn't expecting to be as invested in the Castlevania story as I was. But that was so, it was written so tightly. This isn't even for you. You didn't even play Symphony of the Night.
00:33:30
Speaker
I know so much about Symphony of the Night. Chris, he didn't even play Symphony of the Night, so this isn't even for him. His opinion doesn't really matter. I played vicariously through my brother, who never played anything else for two years.
00:33:50
Speaker
Off the bat like off the cusp right now like everything we've seen about it like throwing this in the middle of the French Revolution Like I think is a really good formula to have like for I think the writing is probably gonna be there I think it's gonna be fine. I don't think I don't think worn out. Let's really care. I'm gonna be honest
00:34:22
Speaker
Was there anything that stuck out from those that is, I'm like, oh, that's Warren Ellis. That's Warren Ellis fucking carrying. That's Michael Jordan. I fucking slam dunk. I can name one thing, I think, and that's the banter between Ellicard and Trevor. Like, that is so funny. And they're that their chemistry is so good.
00:34:30
Speaker
You don't think he carries? I read planetary. Was there a lot of planetary in in Castlevania? I really need to be.
00:34:43
Speaker
Like that's, that, I think that's him. I think all the weird Trevor things is all worn like the whole, like the weird vampire stuff where he's like, Oh, they crosses confuse them. Like that's, that screams Warren Ellis. It could be, but, but also at the same time, it's not like Warren Ellis wrote the fucking video games too.
00:35:02
Speaker
You know, no, no, no. I mean, it's a video game. This is going to be as horny as the latest. It was a real. It was like a focal point of the season and it built a lot of fun stuff off of it, like how Alucard was a lonely mess. He had him threesome with twins. Yeah. And then they they took they took advantage of.
00:35:26
Speaker
I guess what I'm saying is I don't want nuance because I mean, that's the thing. What I'm what I'm trying to say is like, they can still have all that stuff. It's not like, like, it's not like they I don't think they actually need Warren Ellis for this to be good. That's what that's all I'm saying. Okay. Yeah. No, I agree. I agree.
00:35:48
Speaker
You know, yeah, like he's a name that you tack on there, but now like it's fine now, you know, it's whatever. I mean, that trailer looks awesome. It looks like a fun fucking show about Richter. Yeah, I'm not going to not watch Richter, man. I think that this is the thing with Rondo of Blood. It's the audience's turn to be horny.
00:36:07
Speaker
Rondo Rondo already has kind of like a built in story, too. Like this is when Castlevania started to have the story where it'll be like, all right, this is Richter Belmont and he's going to save his wife. But then he goes to the castle and he meets Maria.
00:36:25
Speaker
Right as a kid. Yeah. And then, like, you know, he has to go back years later and then shaft. This will definitely be probably be season two stuff. But shaft probably will like bring in Richter as like the bad guy and Alucard, who is so burnt from when we last saw him humanity. See the story's already there. The story's already there. Like the frame is there for this Castlevania story. Yeah. Well, well, Castlevania three being like, hey,
00:36:54
Speaker
What else? Castlevania three. Cool. Yeah. No, he did. He made Castlevania three like have like a legitimate story as a price. Here's four characters and they're all trying to get the whip on. So real quick, real quick, eight episodes.
00:37:10
Speaker
Uh, for Castlevania. So, yeah, no, this, uh, it's fucking that's way more than the first season. That still makes me mad. Do you think that the next season after this is going to be symphony of the night or that you think they're going to let it cook for a little bit before we go? I think you're for sure getting Alucard season two. We're going to get, we're going to see him at the end of this season, right? Maybe he's waking up.
00:37:38
Speaker
He's waking up and he's going to be pissed. If we are introduced to Shaft in this first season, I wouldn't be surprised if the end of this season is like fucking Richter is just fucking, he just turns, he turns heel at the end of the season. Oh, man, I'll be so sick. Are you kind of mad? Fuck. Well, he's going to like beat Dracula first. I don't know if he's. He doesn't have to beat Dracula. I don't even know if Dracula's going up in this season. Yeah.
00:38:03
Speaker
He's fighting some countess. Do we get do we get? Legit dialogue from symphony night. Do we get what we probably won't even do we get that you now? You're making me think about it Devin. We're talking about Dracula's gonna show up at all. I don't think he's shown up at all Is a man nah He's not gonna get that
00:38:25
Speaker
No, you will. You could get that. I mean, not this season's Dracula. That might be season. Yeah, I don't think. Yeah, I don't think trash season one. The Countess brings back Dracula.
00:38:36
Speaker
at the end, right? We're going to season 40 by the time we get that quote, dude. Season two, season two. Season two, we get the quote. Yeah. Season two, Richter, it ends with Richter defeating Dracula and then turning heel. Dude, the trailer for season two is going to end with, what is a man? And we're all going to lose our minds. Are skins going to melt? I don't even play the fucking like the latest.
00:39:02
Speaker
release of that because they changed the dialogue. It's disgusting. I bought it and the first thing I did was scream at Tim because it was his fault. It was Tim's fault that they changed the dialogue. I remember he complained when the PSP came out. And then he was like, you know what, Konami? Fuck it. I'm going to call your bluff, make Silent Hill 2 remake with Bloober Team. Do it. And then they fucking did it. They said, fuck you, Tim.
00:39:29
Speaker
We are going to do that with blue. I don't know what Tim did to Konami, but they really hate that. They really hate them. They can't stand on you because Tim hates Pachinko. That's true. That's why I hate him. Solid. Sorry, dude. We've gotten rid of that guy. He's dead now, basically to us. Oh, God, dude, who's fucking next? That man, you know, they haven't. What is their Pokemon?
00:39:58
Speaker
What is that? Come on. Wait, what is that? Hold on. Konami's. Konami's. Yes. There's nurses, dude. It's those sexy nurses. I catch you. I'm sorry. Yu-Gi-Oh. That's how. Oh, I haven't touched Yu-Gi-Oh. Dude, Kazuya comes down a couple of weeks, bro.
00:40:19
Speaker
Fuck after we remembered it. I'm just going to no life it in one day again. I think I did that with the last one. I watched it all in one day. I definitely did that. The episodes are so short. That's why. Or they feel short. And I just couldn't stop. I don't even like anime, Chris. I met I met a friend at the Street Fighter tournament. And we were talking and like, you know, he's from like Camden or whatever.
00:40:47
Speaker
And he was like, you know, I was trying to make like jokes about sports, but he said, yeah, I don't really watch sports. He's like, do you guys watch anime? I was like, fuck.
00:40:55
Speaker
Probably should if I'm coming to these things. Yeah, right Castlevania were you like I was like he watches that anime. No, I didn't say Castlevania. What am I? Am I trying to get disrespected or feel disrespected? I feel like I feel like bringing up you you hawkish. Oh, I feel like I Mean, what are you guys watching?
00:41:22
Speaker
I was like, I love cowboy bebop years ago when I watched that old swim. If you ask, if you ask vicious, he can give you a cheat sheet. It's like, say psycho mom assassination classroom and my hero and just say that shit. Dude, I see all this shit all the time on my Twitter feed. That's why I posted that. Did you see that? The fun, the one that was like R. Kelly and just do peeing on the guy like, is that anime now?
00:41:50
Speaker
Bucky, yeah Bucky's an old anime from the 80s Chris No, I didn't want okay good You gotta watch this shit because it's like
00:42:18
Speaker
There's no context to this clip at all so what else I mean the context was The the tweet was our Kelly when he hears you got stung by a jellyfish and then I guess the guy goes into his rivals Sauna bath while he's taking a bath
00:42:40
Speaker
What's that goofy fucking movie? Ricky yo, dude. Yeah box is like an anime Ricky. Oh
00:42:52
Speaker
Which I think is also an anime. I heard Baki is like the theme level promo eroticism as like Jojo. Like that's what I've always been heard. Devin, the dude's just sitting there getting peed on. He doesn't even do anything. He's fucking so cool, dude. He's like, I don't care. I'll fuck you up anyway.
00:43:17
Speaker
Yeah, they always like that. That's Baki. They always find an anime. Yeah. So Baki the Grappler was 2001. And then they like remade this. I guess they remade it in like 2001. Why is he peeing on him? Because he's a bad guy, dude. That's what bad guys do.
00:43:41
Speaker
I use a P on Krillin. You got it. You got a killer moon peas on somebody else. You got to cut out all the subtext and just be as over the top and not subtle as possible. Yeah. When it comes down to. I'll be honest, I tried watching it like when it came out like 2021 and I was like, this is just. Not like. Then one of the replies to this, which is which I'm assuming is from Baki as well. Yeah.
00:44:11
Speaker
And kind of makes me want to watch the show. This is what makes me want to watch the show
00:44:42
Speaker
A non-anime watcher like myself see something like that is like people really watch this shit like So John John this is the finest I have all the time
00:45:09
Speaker
But like like this is the problem I have all the time when it comes to shows I'm like I need to know This is where that weird completionist thing comes from I'm like I need to know why and what this is
00:45:27
Speaker
It's like and if you look at all the tweets like people are like in on it, they've watched Baki so like Oh No, and I and I don't know what's going on. They said dude got packed There's a point of anime where it's just too cool for you like I gotta figure it out I
00:45:52
Speaker
All right, Golanian Chill, you gotta watch all of Baki. I'm not doing that. Come on! Hold on, you know, we... Say something you can't take back, Chris. Mark's madness coming. Where the police direct things for you to watch. You guys specifically made a point to never have TV shows on Golanian Chill. No, you're right, you're right. That's too much. No, we said TV shows. It's an anime. Oh, Anibi. How many episodes is this? Is there a Baki movie?
00:46:21
Speaker
There's a movie I will watch it actually There's a 45 episodes of Baki Dude, that's like two hours man. It's on Netflix They said this is the remake. They said yeah, I think there's like three hockey shows cuz there's like
00:46:43
Speaker
I don't know. I don't know. I haven't. I mean, let me sign in. If it's on Netflix, I'll start watching it tomorrow. I don't give a fuck. Because there's because it's so there is a 45 minute original video animation from 1994. I don't think it's the one you're talking about. You know, wait, wait, wait. I think there's blocky things. I mean, because that's been photoshopped because there's this picture, which is also, I think, been photoshopped for you.
00:47:28
Speaker
Watch this now though
00:47:33
Speaker
No, that doesn't even look photoshopped. That looks like it's straight out of the manga. That's the manga. They were like, we don't deal with these. We're just going to turn them into a little nub. Oh, my God. Oh, no. It's on Netflix, dude. Oh, dude. So Bachi Hanma is the sequel to the original anime in like
00:47:59
Speaker
Wow, 94 or whatever. There's so many of these. There's so many. You've got to find out. Oh, there's like so many of these images. I'm watching the I'm watching the the hover over trailer of Baki on this website. And then there's this one. And I'm. What is that one, dude? I don't know.
00:48:27
Speaker
his legs and his arms are backwards at that point dude he's training he's training to become the one that's nonsense no no dude this is art literally art
00:48:45
Speaker
Ask my cousin to see if he's wait, so there's Baki And then there's Baki Hamna. Oh, what the fuck is so confusing? I think it's it's like literally just dudes fighting It's like UFC
00:49:02
Speaker
No, I don't. I don't. It's just like I'm going to fight the strongest because Baki is the strongest fighter. OK. And people just go around trying to fight Baki. And he's like this guy that like just doesn't care. He's just super cool. So is the series on Netflix? Yeah. The original. No, I don't like I think I don't know. I got to figure this out.
00:49:27
Speaker
Baki, there's Baki, the 2018 show that is three parts that ended in 2020. So so Baki, season one, part one, Baki, season one, part two. And then the great right eye tournament saga. And then there's a Baki Hamna. Which is. Oh, it's it's Photoshop. It's not real. No, I mean, .com.
00:49:57
Speaker
is a Photoshop frame from the manga series, Baki the Grappler, specifically part three of Baki called Hanma Baki or Son of Ogre, showing the character Retsukaios in the limbless head lying down in the hospital bed. A varying amount of arms and legs are added to him. And oh, no, it's the arms and legs are are the Photoshop's. Jesus Christ. I think that that's that actually happens. So the head is is the true image.
00:50:25
Speaker
to your page. I think so. Oh, no, no, no, no. Here. I guess this is the original. So you have not, which is not as funny. It's not as cool. Yeah. Boring. Like I'll say this, Baki, I mean, from the bit, the little bit I've seen, I think I watched about 10 episodes of Baki.
00:50:51
Speaker
I believed it, though. It's weird. It is that level of this. Oh, it's that weird. Because it's just people are just like, oh my god. Is it that weird? People are so strong, they get hit, and then they just don't die. It's goofy shit like that.
00:51:15
Speaker
This isn't real I'm not really interested No, that's That's on brand Russia. I should try I should try to give it a shot. Yeah. Oh, by the way I oh I think we all owe one piece of big fat apology. I
00:51:32
Speaker
So One Piece, 1,075 episodes. Pokemon, 1,255 episodes. Wait, wait. Why do I have an apology to either anime that I watched? No, because we were like, One Piece is ridiculous. And Pokemon has been doing it for longer. Isn't One Piece one continuous story?
00:51:59
Speaker
It's always not always not always him man, not always a you know, what? Oh, that's the thing. I think they brought in like another kid.
00:52:11
Speaker
Also, one is like a serious story and the other one's Pokemon. I don't think one piece is that serious. Wait, hold on. When did when did when did one piece start? This was 99. Pokemon anime was 97. So so Pokemon has about a two year head start.
00:52:30
Speaker
Okay. You know what? Ash is in every one of these. 25. You know what? You're not wrong. It is apparently a continuous thing. Yeah. See, I remember them changing to another kid. Like, okay. So the first season is the Indigo League. The second one's the Orange Islands. The third one's Jodo. Yeah. Okay. Oh, thank you for clearing that up. Yeah, you're welcome. I mean, this is mainly an attack at Chris for not talking.
00:52:57
Speaker
No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not watching either of these series. You guys watch both animes and then baki. That's twelve. That's twenty four hundred. It's only going to take you like six years, dude. That's ridiculous. Nothing should be that long. Just do it. Nothing ever should be that long. Please. Yeah. What? Yeah. No, I mean, you're not. Maybe the bahad vogitas, you know, the the Hindu Bible, because I hear that's really wrong. But like that's that has a purpose.
00:53:27
Speaker
This has a purpose. It doesn't need to be that long. There's only 750 episodes of The Simpsons in comparison. You know what, Steven? I watched what? 200 of those that are actually any good? Not even? And that's the thing. That started way earlier. So the fact that there's way less... Dude, we call that work ethic.
00:53:50
Speaker
I think that might be called an animation prison. Same animating animation companies probably though. I mean, you're not wrong. Oh my gosh. I think that's it for anime, right? You guys have anything else you'd like to talk about? Anything new? You know what? I played more Baldur's Gate 3.
00:54:16
Speaker
Yeah, talk about it last because that was a glonning chill. So what's your father's gate? Like, so I. So I let a vampire drink all of my blood. I was just saying that that should kill you. And I fucking died and I had to reload my save because I was like an option where it's like the stop. He called it out. He called it out. I failed three rolls in a row. Oh, no.
00:54:51
Speaker
It was a persuasion roll, then a strength roll, then another persuasion roll. Fell all of them, died, had to reload it. And guess what? A different thing happened at the camp after I reloaded it. Like a completely different event happened, which was really weird.
00:55:12
Speaker
because it was about a certain character meeting his patron and getting getting chewed out and it was like it's crazy how like different the experience was just from one save to another like completely different character experience completely different like like one of my
00:55:34
Speaker
The people in my party changed irrevocably, like totally different now. OK. Cool. That stuff's awesome. I love that. That's super cool. I did not expect something to that level of randomness when it comes to like. And let me tell you, I think people aren't long resting enough in in Baldur's Gate because there's a lot of shit that happens when you long. It's not resting like you. Then you get like cut scenes. Yeah, you get like character specific cut scenes.
00:56:05
Speaker
that happened during certain long arrests, which I think are really, really neat. And I don't hear enough. I didn't hear many people talking about it. So like surprise the shit out of me. But I am well on my way to Baldur's Gate. I I've I ran into a certain group of people and I talked my way out of a pretty terrible combat because I
00:56:34
Speaker
You're a monk, right? I'm a monk, yeah. And I've been using insight and wisdom instead of charisma. And that kind of helps me talk my way. If there's like a combat situation, sometimes I can talk my way out of it.
00:56:46
Speaker
And, uh, usually we got by saying something like, like that Bruce Lee would say and enter the dragon boards don't hit back at the moon. Yeah. Like you, you idiots are fighting for nothing, you know, that kind of stuff. And, um, yeah, I love all of that. I, yeah, I'm really enjoy.
00:57:09
Speaker
the, where it's going. And I have two different routes I can go to the main goal, like two different, completely different routes. And I've kind of did both. Like I scrum saved and did both just to see what different outcomes are. And one is much easier than the other, which is interesting. Um, I could have gone through the mountain pass or could have gone through the underdark.
00:57:37
Speaker
Um, one was very much easier than the other. So, uh, and I got the prompt, the first prompt I've ever gotten in the game where it was like, you are not high enough level to go here.
00:57:49
Speaker
Oh, no, it's interesting. The DMV and like, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, basically. Yeah. Like, you sure you want to do that? But it doesn't just let you get waxed like Elden Ring. No, no, no, it's not Elden Ring. It's not that level of player freedom. Like they literally tell you, like you're pretty low level for what's coming.
00:58:11
Speaker
But I love, I'm really enjoying the game. I did, I did a good chunk of the main quests. Nice. I think I'm almost finished the first act. Like I'm close to finishing it, but it's, it's a chunky game and there's a lot to

Gaming Updates: Baldur's Gate 3 and Sea of Stars

00:58:26
Speaker
it. And yeah, definitely still in. I really, really love it. How many, uh, what are you like 20 hours in? I think I'm a 25. Okay. I think. And I'm at level.
00:58:40
Speaker
for four or a level five. OK. With all my characters. So, yeah. So just level five. Like, is it a lot to level up? Yeah. A lot of XP. A lot of XP. D&D leveling. D&D is like, what, 12 is like max? I initially got 20 max. There's two there's two ways of leveling up in D&D. There's the actual like battle leveling up where, you know, you fight
00:59:07
Speaker
creatures have a certain challenge level and they have a certain amount of XP as attached to that challenge level. Or there's like event leveling where you get to a certain point in the in the story and you level up. There's two different routes and I feel like it's the latter. I feel like it's you're leveling up through each encounter and each fight that you have instead of like the events in the story.
00:59:34
Speaker
Yeah, so I've done a good deal and I'm almost at the halfway point leveling I feel like because it's I think 12 is the level cap But I read some shit online and I think what I'm going to do to min max a little bit I'm gonna go for monk for about six levels and then I'm gonna go into thief and
00:59:56
Speaker
rogue thief for about three levels, multi-class a multi-classing because it gives me, I'll have, if I go three levels into thief rogue, I'll have an additional three more turns as a monk. Oh, you're trying to go wild. Yeah. I'm trying to go fucking buck wild with, um, um, cause the monk class is a little underpowered. So I'm going to go, which, you know, that's the way it is in D and D two. Um, so I'm going to go,
01:00:24
Speaker
and Minax a little bit, just a little, just to get through the game. But I like, I like the monk class. I think it's, I have so much mobility. I'm talking my way out of things. I haven't got stunning strike yet, which I really want. Like that's, God, that's such an important part of being a monk in my opinion. But yeah, I am enjoying my time and very much invested in the game. Very good.
01:00:55
Speaker
Nice. Heck, yeah. Cool. Yeah. You played Starfield, Devin? No, I keep reading reasons to not play Starfield. That's all I got. I mean, I don't know. People are just like, yeah, it's really good. It's just like I've never been particularly like attached to those Fallout style games. Which is like, you know, that's a big one and.
01:01:23
Speaker
I'll tell you a weird quality of life issues that I keep like there's no mini map and like there's no when you're at a shop.
01:01:31
Speaker
It like you don't know if you have any items. Like it doesn't tell you, oh, you have 10 of these. So you have to like this weird, stupid things that you got to use a notebook. I heard. Yeah, I heard him say that you can drop that on kind of a lot. Like I've heard that, like you spend most of that game in like loading screens and fast travel stuff. Yeah. And I really it's not like it's like, oh, I'm never touching this. But I've I've been playing Sea of Stars, which is really good.
01:02:04
Speaker
That's the one that's like, uh, it's been compared to chrono trigger, right? Yeah. Yeah. It's very chrono trigger. What is that? Uh, yeah. Uh, one of the greatest, uh, RPGs and games of all time. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. You know, that's pretty cool.
01:02:21
Speaker
When I hear Chrono Trigger, my boner triggers. Yeah, no trigger. My bono trigger. My bono triggering hard for this game, dude. Yeah, I think I'm about 20 hours in, maybe a little less. I don't know where I'm at. I'm I'm either halfway or maybe a little past halfway. But you're nowhere close. Yeah. RPG RPG. Yeah. But same thing.
01:02:51
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, you know, similar, but it's from the guys who did The Messenger. So there's the sprite works. Gorgeous, dude. Yeah, it's probably the prettiest game I played all year.
01:03:05
Speaker
I think easily, actually. I don't think there's even one that's close, but the combat's interesting because it does do that kind of Chrono Trigger-esque thing for Steve, since you don't know. The enemies are on the screen, there's no random encounters, and then when you touch one,
01:03:25
Speaker
You can either preemptively hit them to get a little bit of a bonus, you know, damage and things like that. Oh, you mean like Super Mario RPG? I hear. Actually, you know what? Yes, actually, there's a ton of that because a lot of the combat is kind of that.
01:03:40
Speaker
button sensitive type of combat. So if I hit at the same time, the guy will attack twice. Um, if I throw the, you know, the one character of Valera throws a, a moon orang and it bounces. So you got to hit the button every time it comes back to her. So she, Oh, that's fun. I love that. Um, yeah, yeah. And it's the stories, you know, pretty interesting. Uh, I hit a, I hit my big,
01:04:04
Speaker
I think the typical thing in these games, the big swerve where it's like, whoa, what? And now I have a pirate ship and there's a map and I'm going to different islands. Oh, when you get a ship in an RPG, that's when you know the world is open to you. The world is open.
01:04:25
Speaker
There's an awesome, there's like a fishing minigame and there's an awesome minigame called Wheels, I think. I think that's what it's called. But dude, it was kind of hard for me to get my head around. I don't think the directions are that good. But once I figured it out, I was like, oh, this game rules.
01:04:45
Speaker
Anytime I go to a tavern, you know, the guys are playing, they're playing their music and then you go to, I find the wheels person and I spend like 20 minutes doing that. And it's just, yeah, man. You are a sucker for small games in games. Yeah. For the most part, there's some games that just kind of like don't get like Paz Ok, like I don't fucking care. Where's Paz Ok from again?
01:05:10
Speaker
Kotor and I said, Oh, that was Kotor. Yeah, it's just it's just Blackjack, really. But which or which are you got real big into? Yeah. Well, Gwen, it's like an all timer and the one in seven. The Yuffie DLC. Right. That's that game rules, too. But no, yeah, this is like right up there. Like with that, like in that list that I would kind of mention where it's all about like awesome kind of mini games. And yeah, dude, it's just like I struggle to find like
01:05:39
Speaker
a bad thing to say, I'll say this, and this isn't even a bad thing. But if you've played games like this before, there's a level of verticality I just like wasn't expecting. So there and this is early on. Once you kind of figure it out, you're like, OK, now I know what to look for. But there's there's a while early on in the game where I'm like, I can't get up there. How do I get up there? And then like you can just mantle on things like you hit the button and he climbs up. And it was just a thing where
01:06:10
Speaker
You look at it and you're like, that's too high. Or like my character can't go up there because like, I can never go up there in these types of games. And it's like, Oh no, no, you can do it. Um, and then once, once I figured that once I realized that I had to do a bit of backtracking and, um,
01:06:26
Speaker
You know, it's kind of hard to grind in these games for whatever reason. It's not really grind friendly. So if that bugs you, you know, I don't know. Just be aware of it. But the game comes out. The game has these things called relics that will make the game slightly easier, very easy or even slightly harder. And then.
01:06:49
Speaker
I feel like relics kind of they went from that to like, oh, like just go back to full health after every battle. So now there's relics where it's just like, get a better fishing rod. And I'm like, this doesn't feel like this should be a relic. It should have been like an item in the game, which I guess technically relics are. But like, yeah, the writing's fun. It's snappy. The punctuation thing that we talked about the other week
01:07:16
Speaker
totally overblown. And yeah, like Jason Shryers complaining about fucking commas being in the wrong place. It's like, relax, dude. Not that I even think that was that big of a deal anyway, but like I honestly can't find a bad thing to say about this. Is this a Japanese made game? Was this the J.R.P. team in Montreal? French, right? Yeah, Montreal. Canada. Yeah. Quebec, I think. A CRPG.
01:07:49
Speaker
Yeah, that's a famously Baldur's Gate. Yeah, but like, you know, it's just.
01:08:02
Speaker
It's going to have a limited, I think, not window, but a limited intrigue just because people, that's an old style of games that's very targeted towards people in their 30s, which is fine because we're the ones spending all the money at this point. I think it's really successful.
01:08:24
Speaker
Yeah, it's pretty like. Yeah, no, I mean, yeah. And like when I first saw the trailer, like in twenty twenty one or whatever it was, I was like, this checks a lot of boxes. And so far those boxes are checked. Like, yeah, I don't know. There's nothing. It's not like the best story. It's not the best gameplay, but it's a pretty intriguing story. The gameplay is
01:08:49
Speaker
you know, solid and keeps me invested, you know, unlike, you know, some RPGs where I'm just, you know, hitting X. Yeah. I'm actually because there's these things. There's this lock thing where an enemy will cast a spell and you can interrupt that spell, but you have to hit them with specific items, a sword icon, a hammer icon, you know, a
01:09:12
Speaker
Sun icon moon icon poison things like that. So it does make you think So it's it's not like brain dead at all. That's a that's a fun system. Yeah, and it's I mean it's free on game pass and PlayStation so if you have any of that you download that game and try it out and it's It's pretty pretty great
01:09:37
Speaker
Should have done that with Starfield probably but just don't really I think I might I might go armor core six and then see a stars
01:09:48
Speaker
Like I want to play both those games very badly. Like I feel none of us have touched armored core either. No, I'm just Paul who's he said it's too hard. But then Donkey saying it's too easy. So that's like one of the best gamers all time secretly. Well, Tim Tim said that he's loving his time in armored core. He says he's always been an armored core guy. He's the easiest game he's ever played. That's what I heard.
01:10:15
Speaker
I mean, I'll just say this, you know, again, if somebody's never touched it, I've I was under the impression that you could just like
01:10:23
Speaker
There's like an OP setup that you could have, you know? Well, I think it's different. Get this mech with this in this situation, you're going to make this game. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's situational. Like, I think, yeah, certain mechs work for certain things and you have to kind of form fit for each mission. Speed build for this one. Yeah, that's I. It's sort of like the Gran Turismo thing that I'm not a huge fan of, to be honest.
01:10:52
Speaker
Yeah, a little bit, but I heard they make it easy for what it's worth. You know, it's like, Oh, if you die, just go in and swap out some arms and stuff. And then you're, you're set. But yeah, but it's also like, you have to have a good understanding of like,
01:11:09
Speaker
how what each thing does when you customize. Right. Yeah, I always feel like I'm missing out on. Yeah, it's not like a casual game, I think. Yeah, I'm kind of like, I don't know if I want to play. It's like it's like you're missing out on like a portion of the game if you don't like fully like learn that or like want to like interact with that stuff. But I mean, I think I've heard it. I've heard like.
01:11:31
Speaker
I'm sorry, Chris. Yeah, I think the whole point of the game is is like every FromSoft game where you're it's it's you know, it's trial and error where you're just going through each mission to see what fits the best and then going back to the drawing board when you fail and just trying to see like what what can I build to completely optimize this mission?
01:11:55
Speaker
Yeah, and I think the stats are similar enough to like a like a Dark Souls, Demon's Souls, Elden Ring where it's like, OK, just find the things that are blue and, you know, make sure that your energy isn't read. Otherwise, you can't run that mech. So like if you can wrap your head around the Elden Ring. Equipment, you could probably wrap your head around. But yeah, there's somebody who's never different, though. I think it's different because that that would be like if like
01:12:23
Speaker
Uchi Kitana has, uh, like a different, different velocity jets attached to them. And you need to understand that. You just don't want a fat roll, right? Isn't that just our record? No, but I, I also, I mean, I don't know if Tim's going to agree with me too, but I, I also feel like it's not Dark Souls, right? Like, you know what I mean? Like people, you can't just go in there. If you're, if you like thinking it's a Dark Souls type game and then
01:12:53
Speaker
and then expecting to be able to get through it. That's kind of where I'm at with it, where I'm not as interested. Yeah, where Elden Ring is literally a Dark Souls-type game. So anybody would feel at home playing a game like that, even though it's a new IP or a different IP than Dark Souls, right? This is probably the best one of those games. Yeah.
01:13:17
Speaker
Yeah, like a like a mech. You know, Chris, you wouldn't even be having this conversation if you just bucked up and bought it. Well, this is Miyazaki making one for the boys. You know, it's like one for them, one for me. Exactly. I haven't given I haven't given those nerds a game in a while. Basically, that's the way I feel about it. It seems like my freshness. Tim played the other ones, too, right? So I yeah, Tim played the PS2 one.
01:13:46
Speaker
I haven't played one since I don't even I don't even know how like how this translates from the actual games from the the series itself to like. He says there's no steel battalion. Oh boy. Him and Ray both were big steel battalion. Yeah, they got that steel bats wouldn't mech the violet whenever they play the game. They would play co-op and they would pretend that they were in the Yeagers. And if one of them died, they both had to die.
01:14:19
Speaker
Yeah. Sit there. So if that's it for the new stuff, we got some trailers to talk about here, fellas. Yeah, well, we got some we do have some news, actually, and in a trailer before while the podcast was

Nintendo Switch 2 Rumors and Casting News

01:14:36
Speaker
going. Well, you didn't even you didn't even told on you even touched the fact that apparently the Nintendo Switch 2 was demoed at Gamescom.
01:14:44
Speaker
Oh, behind closed doors, behind closed doors. But people were saying that they were shown a an updated Breath of the Wild. And you remember that Matrix trailer or that not trailer, but it was like an interactive game. Yeah, I do. They were they were showed that on the switch to, quote unquote, weird. Why were they? Yeah.
01:15:08
Speaker
Probably just to show that like how do it's flexible for like a modern day like games Okay, but I feel like this it was weird that it was like Breath of the Wild You know this reminds me of this reminds me of when they showed Spider-Man on the ps5 behind closed doors and rather fasties web swinging they picked a game that was like comfortably
01:15:34
Speaker
I mean, Breath of the Wild is like a Wii U game technically, right? That's like the launch game. Yeah. Yeah. So they were like, hey, look how well this Wii U game runs now. And it's like, I hope so. And I'm sure it runs like 60 frames. I hope so.
01:15:53
Speaker
Yeah. And, you know, which is cool. I mean, we know it's really this is definitely going to be like a handheld still the hybrid thing. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's just a beefed up switch now. And it's I think they're doing this because of modern consoles because everyone has been crying.
01:16:11
Speaker
Like the the the switch was a console made to like play like 360 ps3 games. Yeah, it's got like fucking 20 2015 technology in it, too Yeah in terms of like, you know, wi-fi antennas and shit. So You think there's gonna be like a weird gimmick
01:16:35
Speaker
I think it is. Here's the thing. They put out a patent this week of new joysticks.
01:16:49
Speaker
You know what I think it's going to be a big term that's going to be completely free.
01:17:07
Speaker
Oh, yeah, that's the gimmick. It's free. It's free. Take our take our hardware. It's free. Just take it. Yeah. Take it. I'll see it. If it's if it's supposedly called the switch to it'll probably just have it'll have joy cons and stuff as well. That'll be the same shit. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, you know.
01:17:28
Speaker
Yeah, but that's like, you know, Nintendo's they haven't duped. They haven't duplicated in a long time. They've never toothed. Yeah. Yeah. Listen to the we know that you did. They you did not screwed it. Well, they screwed it. I mean, I mean, technically, it's not that switch to is the official name. But like, if that's what they're calling it behind closed doors now, then, you know,
01:17:54
Speaker
Yeah, it might be like a switch. You can I record you guys saying that I've never taken a tube before. You can never do that. You could, I guess. I'm going to call you on that. Nintendo's never pooped. Never pooped. Super switch called super switch.
01:18:18
Speaker
Call it the Famicom just called Pretty sick flex I think if they just brought that name back
01:18:28
Speaker
Oh, let's go to Famicom. Oh, you know what? They should do with Xbox and call it the regular Nintendo. Oh, called the Nintendo one. Yeah. The series switch. The original Nintendo. That would screw everything up. The Nintendo. That's what they call the Nintendo.
01:18:50
Speaker
Speaking of rumors, too, did you guys see that Florence Pugh was rumored to have been offered the role of Abby in Last of Us? Whoa. Whoa. Before they had to stop talking because of the strikes. Better get eaten. There's burritos, dude. You gotta get fucking ripped. Dude, that's going to be those strike muscles coming out.
01:19:12
Speaker
I'd be down. I'd be down. She left him way down. Like, I mean, she's pretty awesome. So like, if they're if they want to, you know, take it that direction, like I'd rather them cast a good actor to play Abby than just somebody, some beefcake. One hundred percent. One hundred percent. Like, if that's the direction Mason and and and drunk man want to go with, then like.
01:19:35
Speaker
That's probably that's pretty cool. They'll throw the whole budget at Florence Pugh because I'm sure she's not cheap these days. No. Yeah. No. That's kind of that's where I kind of push back on the rumor. Like, I don't think that she thinks she's too expensive. Also, that's like that was a premiere show. And I feel like like working with like Pedro Pascal in like a pivotal scene in that show. Mando.
01:20:03
Speaker
at the peak of his at the peak of his of his Hollywood career right now spoilers for The Last of Us, but you get to cut your budget. Yeah, you don't see it in the same cast to replace it. Yeah, we get to get to replace your Mando. That's true. That's a good point. I didn't think about that, that they would lose a big chunk of their budget. God, could you imagine her beating up on fucking Bella Ramsey?
01:20:28
Speaker
I can. No, I just don't see it happening, though. Why? I mean, I could see it, but I don't want to. I don't want to visualize them fighting each other like that. That makes my stomach turn. That's a whole nother thing. But I just I don't know. That is that's a hard ask because it's like you're asking the audience.
01:20:46
Speaker
to hate and also root for this character. That's why I think it's it's genius to a little bit. And I think you could do that. You got to have a good actress. You got to have a good actress. But also, I think that's true. I think they're playing.
01:21:03
Speaker
to play in the card of if we cast somebody that's actually really liked in the public eye. Like, oh, I see. Sure. Maybe we can we can do the story the way it's supposed to go without having to pull in. We use the metaphysical reaction of Florence Poe. Right. He's going to play like an outright villain either, has she? No, she was the May queen. You know, I agree with her. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, Devin, are you fucking 4chan now?
01:21:33
Speaker
Villain like the fuck out here. No, she fucked a guy that murdered thousands tens of thousands of Japanese people you fucking Don't be a peanut brain and call Abby a villain like come on I mean she's the villain for the first half of that season First half of that game. She's a pretty bad guy Don't don't you don't feel bad for her until until halfway through? I
01:21:59
Speaker
Well, that's the funny part. Don't be that guy. Like that's really that's really hard to do. That's really hard to do with the. Yeah, it's going to be an uphill battle. That's that's not easy because a video game there. There's. Chris, I said the same thing. I fucking played the game three weeks before the show came out, so I could be ultimate hate mode, educate, highly educated hate mode for the show, because I didn't think it was going to be good and blew me away.
01:22:24
Speaker
Like so now I'm like, you know now it's like oh whatever they want to do I'm down I know I agree with that But there's this there is a difference between playing that character and watching that character on TV You I think you there's more empathy When you play as that person because you have the choice to do good things as that kind
01:22:46
Speaker
You know, like you were doing. So they have they have the choice to portray her the way she should be portrayed instead of somebody who's playing the game with a closed mind. They already don't want to forgive Abby. You know what I mean? You're right in that regard. This is a good this is a good way. Like this is a good way to tell a story. You're going to have to do things a little differently for the TV show than for the game.
01:23:12
Speaker
Let's make it. Well, if Dural could come around and have the redemption story of the role of a century like Dural, though. They didn't like Murrell. Oh, yeah. And not to mention like could do it. Abby could do it. She's probably going to be, you know, a bit character in the second season, not a huge character because they're not going to focus on the second game in the second season. Right. Every huge get those gains in, bro.
01:23:37
Speaker
But, you know, it's going to take it's going to be a slow burn for her because she's going to have to I guess that would help. I think it's I think that's what they're going to do. Like, yeah, I think they have to like she's not just going to be like in one scene. Like, I think they're going to sprinkle it in there now and then because that would be a smart move because you would you would gain some relation to her in the second season before she kills before she before she takes Joel, the top off.
01:24:13
Speaker
So, I mean, there was the other actress that was rumored to play her that looks just like her, that would be cool too. But the thing is, I'm already kind of biased because I love Abby. I love her character. I think they're right in picking a good actress. I mean, you have to pick someone who's really, really good to really make you feel for Abby. Which is kind of, yeah, I mean, that is interesting because what Steve said is basically like, oh, we're losing Pedro Pascal, we got
01:24:30
Speaker
and gets the highest Angry Birds score of all time.
01:24:38
Speaker
Sure got the fucking all-star slot that we can fill in. That's true. And it has to be happy like it has to be She is basically the Joel the Joel type For that part of the game, you know, so Twisters, you know It's really casting for me because I love for I'm just how tall is she? Very small. She's very small. She's yeah, I don't think she's like I
01:25:06
Speaker
Small, cute, and compact. Shakes Howard all over those other people in Midsommar. How cool is everybody in Midsommar? They did the Ben Affleck stage where they had to put Ben Affleck in a little hole in the ground to act around. She is five nine, Abby's five nine.
01:25:30
Speaker
It's actually six five five six five four five four. Yeah, she's much smaller. Oh, God. Yeah. You know what? I don't know if it's going to work. After all, after all that saying has a good actor, like there are things that I don't know, man, if she's like if she's I don't know. You know, they can trick that, though. Like Tom Cruise is like five foot five. They can have it. They can hobbit her. They can make her and all the tricks, dude.
01:25:58
Speaker
Most of the Tom Cruise movies, they just have him like flying through a wall at full speed. Yeah, which is an apostle movie. So you don't really just do that with Abby. I like just bouncing around flies through Joel and not one cut some right in half. This is compact muscley. She has to be taller than Bella Ramsey. And that's she I'm so I'm excited, man. I want to know who's going to be Jesse. I want to I want to see Dina.
01:26:28
Speaker
You know, we kind of already saw her. I don't know if that they're going to stick with that same actor. I want to know everything. I want to know everybody, man. Brie Larson, 5'7". That's a good pick.
01:26:41
Speaker
And all the people who are gonna hate her They already hate her It's already baked in you know Who do you think costs more Brie Larson or or Florence Pugh? We lost him probably You don't think
01:27:02
Speaker
Who costs more? Yeah. Lawrence Poe costs more. You think so? Yes, yes. Brie Larson has had a string of- Yeah, but how many Oscars? How many Oscars has she won? Who? I just farted. Sorry. Has Florence Pugh won an Oscar though for real or no? No, no, no, no. Has Florence Pugh been in a Fast and Furious film? No. Has Florence Pugh
01:27:28
Speaker
As Brie Larson. Yeah. Yeah. Fast X, baby. Really? And Avengers Endgame. And Envy Adams from the Clash at Demonhead. People forget. She's Envy Adams too. And Consco Island. Oh, yeah. She was in Consco Island. Yeah, dude. All I'm hearing is money, money, money, money. And also, yeah. Sorry, Chris.
01:27:54
Speaker
Plus, she probably made a lot of money off of Avengers Endgame 2, too, right? Wasn't Florence Poe in one of the biggest movies of the year this year? The Hairstyles one? Yeah, the Hairstyles one, yes. She was Nakey's in Oppenheimer. Yeah, that's what Florence Poe did. How much did she get paid for Oppenheimer? I don't know. I've just had a lot, man. She's Nakey's in that. I'm going to say that that probably helped her career quite a bit.
01:28:20
Speaker
No, I think Midsommar skyrocketed her career. Well, no, no, no. I don't think she's... Midsommar put her on the map. Oppenheimer made her box off his draw. I don't know. I didn't see... I walked out. There's too much talking.
01:28:35
Speaker
I think I think Brie Larson is bigger than Florence Pugh right now, though. She's Captain Marvel, dude. I think she also has a lot of hate. Like a lot of people. I know. But that doesn't mean that doesn't mean that she's going to cost less if people hate. I think that does mean that. Yeah, I do. I think that means that I think I think they both are probably a pretty penny. Yeah. Yeah. I think Larson's Brie Larson's net worth is 25 million. What's Florence Pugh's?
01:29:05
Speaker
15, 18 is my guess.
01:29:09
Speaker
Well, that doesn't mean anything. Oh, my God. Like the like that's even. Oh, here's interesting. How do we listen for an is it for an event? Oh, three hundred to four hundred and four hundred ninety nine thousand dollars. Oh, I was going to say I was like four hundred bucks. Yeah. I could scratch that. I got three large and just hang out. Yeah. Yeah, dude. Realizes in all those Nissan commercials, too. Yeah.
01:29:41
Speaker
75,000. What's their cameo? How many followers do they have on Twitter?
01:29:49
Speaker
Well, based on celebrity talent international, they do undervalue Florence Pio. Unfortunately. Whoa. Well, she's not there yet. That's what I'm saying. She's not there yet. She's supposed to be like the next Black Widow and stuff. She's getting there. I just looked up passing the key. Yeah, I don't think she would cost as much as Brie Larson would right now. I don't know. Again, I pushed back on that. You are biased. I'm not an Oppenheimer.
01:30:16
Speaker
$50,000 to $1,000,000. Yeah, I feel like she's how much did she get paid for Oppenheimer marketable actress? Okay to $1,000,000. So that's a huge range. Yeah, I hope it was a million. She got nakies not even a million might not even be that movie for a cup of coffee. I don't know. I don't know if I trust sports sports kedia for this information of sports.com. You know, just
01:30:45
Speaker
Brie Larson made a million off her Fast X. She made one M. How much did she make for Endgame? One million dollars. Endgame, she made five million. It would cost me 25. What was Florence P's biggest movie, you think?
01:31:06
Speaker
Probably Oppenheimer. Probably Oppenheimer. But where she's the lead? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. What do you think she made the most money off of what movie? Probably that Don't.
01:31:20
Speaker
I don't know. Just to be honest, if I was a casting director, I would probably push back a little bit more on Brie Larson because of how much hate... It's because you hate her and you wish you would smile more, Chris. Is that why? Well, there's a good contingent of people that don't want to see her on great film. To me, I think it's unconscionable.
01:31:44
Speaker
I mean, that's a huge deal when you're casting somebody. Oh, man. Florence Pugh. Yeah. How much is Florence Pugh getting paid for Dune? Uh, who knows? She likes the Emperor's Daughter, dude. Dune is poor people movie. Timothy Chalamet is only getting paid three million. Only three? Yes. This is a poor people movie.
01:32:08
Speaker
Well, there's 2 million. How did we end up? What was the discussion? Oh, yeah, like who like, who would cost more as Abby Florence Pugh or Brie Larson? Chris said, Florence Pugh, but I think I disagree. Just not based on the
01:32:27
Speaker
on the likeliness of the characters just based on the the the resume alone. I guess. But I also I again keep pushing back because of her public persona. Like that's a big deal. I feel like that's going to. Oh, she wants equal rights for women. Well, people fucking hate her for.
01:32:48
Speaker
Hollywood is a business. Don't you understand what I'm trying to tell you? They're all about inclusiveness. If they do that, they would be shit out of luck. Everybody would hate them. They would go back on their messaging.
01:33:06
Speaker
That's the problem that they're in right now. It doesn't matter. It is to a degree, but I'm, I'm letting you know just in this disgusting, cold look of Hollywood, how these people are valued. That's, that's what I'm trying to get. I mean, I'll say this, you check in in five years, it might be swapped.
01:33:31
Speaker
Yeah, that's my argument is I think Florence Pugh is going to get there. She's just not there yet. This could be the thing that gets her over the hump too. I feel like we wouldn't do a television show now. Because she's too big and too expensive, right? I just don't see her doing one.
01:33:54
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, what was the last like real thing Brie Larson did? The Marvels. That's probably not going to do very well. Brie Larson. But that's another problem. Let's see. Brie Larson. Literally. Was she ever on a TV show?
01:34:16
Speaker
I mean, she was on that. She was on that one show. That's what got her popular. What show was that? You know, this is gonna sound mean, but like I kind of really wish that there was like a thing on IMDB where you could just pull out things like
01:34:31
Speaker
I pull out all the Marvel shit, like it just messes because it's like, yeah, I know she was in Chang Chi, Shang Chi for six seconds. That's why you don't you don't go to IMDB for credit to get a Wikipedia for that. Yeah, maybe it was room because room free fire Kong.
01:34:55
Speaker
Unicorn store, glass castle, the Somedy Blues, Captain Marvel, and a bunch of Marvel stuff. Just Mercy, Fortnite chapter three. That's important. Remembering TV short, Fast X, house broken. Yeah.
01:35:17
Speaker
Realize since I think real arson was in room, which I've never saw but that's what it's a really good movie. Yeah, that's what got really good. The award. Yeah, I think she won Oscar for that. Yeah, but like I think she has a she has a surprisingly not snooty resume. Which is, you know, I don't know.
01:35:42
Speaker
impressive to me. Not impressive, I was just surprised, I guess. Like, oh, okay, I'm sick. I thought she was a snoot queen. Judging just because everybody hates her so much. That's why. No, no, just by like, oh, she won an Academy Award for a room. And then I'm like, oh, she went right from room to like a bunch of being Miss Marvel or Captain Marvel. Yeah, like that and some other like goofy action movies, you know.
01:36:12
Speaker
Um, there's a big, there's a big budget action movies though. Like Kong. Yeah. If she went like from that to Kong, dude. Um, all right. Well, they're both going to cost, uh, max can afford both. I think that's the real answer. Frankly got max money. And it's like, yeah. Open up some room in that budge. Cause how much did he make per episode?
01:36:43
Speaker
He was doing a pro bono I heard. He said, give me that switch to deal where the gimmick is, it's free. You guys talking about that fucking video game? I'll do that shit for free. Yeah, I'll do that for free. Make for the last of us. He was reportedly paid 600K per episode.
01:37:09
Speaker
And I think last of us was what, 11? Yes. Do you think Florence Pugh would get paid? Do you think she would demand higher than that or the same? Probably the same, right? Probably the same. I don't think she would make the same.
01:37:23
Speaker
I would assume she would, especially after I would have won her two. Well, or how many burritos? I know what. No, what would have to happen is Bella Ramsey's salary would have to go up because Ellie becomes the main character. Dude, I think it's going to go up, too. I think everyone's making more. Well, everybody's getting the. Yeah, they just get what he's going to get more money just to get his fucking head. Yeah, he's going to be. Oh, I'm going to be in this for four more episodes. He's going to show up for a few like, you know, flashbacks. Yep.
01:37:53
Speaker
Yeah, and I'm just making a million per episode in the whole of the second season, right? It's probably the third season that he's going to get killed. Right. We don't know. We don't know that, Chris, but that's what that's what we're saying. Keep them alive. Keep them alive. Yeah. No, I mean, just the order of what they're going to do because they could also just kill them whenever they want. But then it would be the worst thing if like
01:38:20
Speaker
He gets hit by the golf club and he's like, he stays alive. It's like when Glenn, when Glenn got hit with the fucking Lucille, he tries to say something. That's brutal, man. But you know what? The comic was more brutal. I think that turned me off walking dead. I was like, I was like on a work trip to Austin, Texas and like ruined my whole weekend.
01:38:50
Speaker
You're like, wow, it's going to just go to bed. We got some. I'm alone. I'm on a work trip and I'm going to be sad because a fictional character died. We got some trailers that Devin posted here. Yeah. Yes. And so some of these for a few weeks old because we had the the GAC last week. I posted the killer trailer. Yeah. I David Fincher.
01:39:18
Speaker
can make, can cut a trailer better than anybody. That dude, that dude's good at his job. Oh my God. The trailer's so fucking good, man. I heard the movie itself is okay, but I've heard, I've heard people say it's great. I've heard people say it's slow burn, not very interesting. Oh, it's slow burn. So it's David Fincher. Duh.
01:39:43
Speaker
I am I'm completely on board, especially considering it's going to be free on Netflix. I mean, I'm I'm very, very interested. Is it out? No, I think it comes out in November. I'm 14. Oh, lame. OK. All right. Well, the last thing Fincher did was, well, bank bank. That's the last thing he did. Yep. Last film. That was OK. That was fine. I don't know if that was worth mine. Hunter dying.
01:40:14
Speaker
And I guess like the man was like a movie that he made for his father and it was like a whole personal thing. Right. All right. I get it. I understand why that movie was even a thing, but it was OK. It was it was not great. I wouldn't I wouldn't go that far. But I'm excited. I'm definitely going to want to watch this.
01:40:38
Speaker
The other trailer that was posted under that book of Clarence looks OK. Yeah, this movie just seems like it might be a bit weird, which I'm kind of into a little life of Brian ask. Yeah, you know, it's it's this guy Clarence just like sees Jesus and he's like, I want to do what he's doing. And then it just sounds like he's just kind of ripping off Jesus a little bit. And then see how that works, because like that is literally the plot of life of Brian, like that.
01:41:08
Speaker
Um, I'm not from the James Samuel. Samuel, uh, is the writer director and I'm not familiar with any of his work. So this might be a little too on the nose, little too on subtle. I don't know if that's where I get from it. Uh, there was a Ferrari trailer, which, you know, I said, okay, just out of driver doing Italian accents.

Biopic Skepticism and Upcoming Movie Trailers

01:41:35
Speaker
And listen, this is a Michael Mann movie, but I am not so into his biopics. I'm weird. They already did Ford versus Ferrari. That's sick. They released the Jason movie after Freddy versus Jason. Well, they got to do it. Steve, they have to do it from Ferraris. Right? Don't they? Don't they have to? They got to do both sides. Yeah.
01:42:00
Speaker
I don't know. I don't care. It's cars. You can't freak out and just finance his movie by selling three cars. It's basically car movies I care about. This is Gran Turismo two movies you care about like the making of a car that isn't like. Oh, I don't care about that. The making of a car. I love Ferraris, so.
01:42:25
Speaker
And I'm not and I'm not interested in this movie. John, is there like a car movie that like you know, like it was a Mazda Miata movie. I would probably watch it like the Mazda Miata. Yeah, like like I would I would I would be interested in like the origins of the design of the car, of that specific car, just because, you know,
01:42:52
Speaker
It's a very historic, iconic piece of car culture, I would say. It's like the first roadster type car, first mass produced or whatever. So that would be interesting to me. Also, there's a real big underground community that dedicates all of their free time to collecting and
01:43:21
Speaker
maintenance seeing those cars so that like the thing is like if I was a fucking studio executive now
01:43:30
Speaker
Like, why would we make a movie about a Mazda Miata? That doesn't make any fucking sense. The Miata movie. We'll make it like the Barbie movie. Well, even even like the Ferraris, like, listen, I, I guess. No, Ferraris are awesome, Chris. No, Ferraris are in the car. Cars are cool, but like NTO Ferrari and really that I don't know much about him. I don't know much about him either. I guess that's why they're like, come see my movie about me. He's got a cool name. Enzo is a pretty cool name. Don't get me wrong, man.
01:43:59
Speaker
Yes, I mean, I stuck with the the fighting aspect where it'll be like Ferrari versus Predator. But then again, I mean, then again, like, you know, the car community is like fucking hardcore. They'll probably eat this shit up. Yeah, I know that. And I think this is made for a specific demographic. I think the the Gran Turismo demographic. No, this is all the real story, Chris. They love those for old men.
01:44:26
Speaker
This movie is made for old men. Has your dad feigned interest? What about that movie, Chris? Take me to the Ferrari movie. You know what they should have done, though? They should have called it Enzo. They shouldn't have called it Ferrari. Oh, yeah. I agree. I think that's it. You know what I mean? That would have been a classier title for the movie. And it's less about the car. It's more about the man. If it's a biopic about the man, then don't name it the brand of
01:44:51
Speaker
Yeah, that's bigger than the man now. If you're asking the guy that does SEO, he's like, don't fucking call it Enzo. Call Ferrari the thing that people know. There is a car that's called the Enzo Ferrari now too. So it's like, people already know. It's like, I think it would have been a classroom. Last year, yes, like more recognizable. Absolutely.
01:45:10
Speaker
I agree with John, though, the people that are going to go see this are going to know who that is already. They're going to know who it is anyway, right? They're going to have an understanding of this. But then again, like maybe they want people to just go in there thinking it's just fucking Ferraris on the Autobahn driving as fast as possible.
01:45:28
Speaker
I mean, this is another one of those movies where it's like the behind the scenes making like those have been super popular this year or like the past two years where it's like the Tetris movie, the Air Jordan movie, a product. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's kind of wild and stupid Barbie.
01:45:59
Speaker
I mean, it's about making the bomb, you know, like it's a product. Yeah. It's the United States Army. That's the product. I mean,
01:46:11
Speaker
I don't know. I'm not. I even as a person that likes Michael Mann, I'm still not interested. Yeah, I really don't care about this movie. And I really do like Ferraris. Like, I mean, I'm not like a huge car guy, but like, you know, whenever we. This is a very much to watch it on the plane movie. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Whenever Sam and I are like, you know, fantasizing about winning the lottery, I'm like, oh, yeah, first thing I'll do is buy a fucking Ferrari F430. I've always wanted one of those cars.
01:46:41
Speaker
And she's like, what is that? I was like, it's a Ferrari. Like, don't worry about it. You'll never see it. After I buy it, you will never see it. You'll be in the garage forever.
01:46:50
Speaker
Well, there's a trailer that me and John are way more interested in, and that's Thanksgiving. The trailer of a movie. That was a trailer in another movie. Oh, that was the trailer from the fucking the the grind house. Yes. This is how they not done. I thought they did every one of those like five years ago. No, we're together, right? That grind house thing. Yeah. Yeah. That was a big deal. That really the the movie for that trailer. I saw I watched the trailer.
01:47:20
Speaker
There is a scene with a woman on a trampoline just like in that trailer where the knife goes into the trampoline when she does this. Oh, like Sony is just plumbing the depths. Yeah. Right. But it's like I remember how there was like four trailers for that. Like in that about like I thought they did all of them. And I was like, you know what I loved about that trailer was Michael Bean sticking his finger in blood and tasting it.
01:47:49
Speaker
Damn it. Yeah, I mean, like, normally I wouldn't have put this in there, but I was like, well, we're we're in that horror season, dude, like we're we're getting there. This is interesting. Going through the list of things that had been made from Grindhouse. Was there a long list? Machete. Oh, Machete. Yeah. Hobo with shotgun. That was a thing. Wow. Mm hmm. And now Thanksgiving.
01:48:17
Speaker
What about, uh, what was the other one death? There's a turnt. There's a turnt. There's werewolf women of the SS. Don't play it. Planet Terror and death proof for the two movies, right? Yeah. Directed by Edgar Wright. The trailer. Remember that? Because it was like, it was like a hammer horror movie. Yeah. That's that's I guess machete and hobo with the shotgunner.
01:48:44
Speaker
somewhat popular. Sixteen years later, though. It's a little weird. Still, they're still. It's a little going, man. And Machete and Hobo with the shotgun, literally, there's like characters that are bigger than life that are built into the trailer. This is just a slasher movie based on a holiday. Like it's not. It doesn't have anything to build off of. Yeah, really, you know.
01:49:11
Speaker
Uh, yeah. So, uh, all right, let's, let's move on. We got bikeriders. Yeah. Bikeriders. Uh, you guys are clear. Tom Hardy, who just says, I will never have a normal voice in a movie ever. Um, the cast is shockingly good for a movie. I like, I don't, I don't know. I guess it's like, you know what I think about this movie? You know what I think? Sounds of anarchy.
01:49:40
Speaker
No, no, I think this is the, this decade's magic mic. I think this is a movie that is targeted to women.
01:49:51
Speaker
because there is a bunch of dudes in it and they're all bad ass bike riders. It's just it's leather. It's a biopic, isn't it? About like it doesn't matter. It doesn't. Doesn't matter. They want funky dudes. They want to see hunky ass Austin Butler. I'm sorry. Yeah, it's a furious drama following the rise of fictional 60s Midwestern motorcycle, which is probably a jolt. They're basing off.
01:50:16
Speaker
But you know what? Yeah, sexy hunks. I get it. I get it. You know what I mean? Like if I'm if I may and cold ass, cold hearted marketer film, this is how I would view it as women to go see movies with men in them. Yeah. Hey, I'm here for that Jodi Koma. I go, oh. She's a smoke show, dude. Yes, sleep on her, dude.
01:50:42
Speaker
All right, then we got the Loki trailer, which, you know, probably going to be a lone bright spot for for what Disney's been putting out lately. I don't know what the hell is going on in this trailer, man. Well, that was kind of the first trailer for the first season, I guess. But like, I feel like now in a second season, there should be some basis of of why they're stuck around time. I guess I don't know. But the thing is, it's like for Castlevania, we could throw around like ideas.
01:51:12
Speaker
this. Yeah, we're just kind of like, he's chasing Kang. I guess I who we don't want to talk about that trailer. I got like, a bunch of unnecessary. Yeah, I don't know. They're adding in and I don't. It's just a bunch of shit that doesn't make any sense.
01:51:30
Speaker
I, I, to me, when I watched this trailer, like I, I even watched the first season and I'm still like, okay, is Kang the villain? I don't, I, yeah, I assume he's takes up some time. Yeah. I mean, he was introduced right at the end of the first season. Sure. Sure. And there's a lot of allusions to that, but like, I don't know what the hell's going on in this trailer. I don't know what the plot other than Kang centric. And I feel like there's more going on in the trailer outside of Kang.
01:51:59
Speaker
You know, like there's different shit and I don't know. I'm just, I have no clue. Yeah. I mean, like I was a big fan of the first season. Um, wasn't perfect, but like it was, it was one of the better ones. And, uh, hopefully it's good. You know, I like to think that like the quirky aesthetics of the first one, isn't the only thing that's keeping this popular. Like I looking at the trailer, it's just nonsense. And.
01:52:29
Speaker
There has to be something outside the aesthetics that got me interested in the first season Which is really why I watched first scene because I watched that trailer was like this looks like no other Marvel show Yeah, you know, it's got this weird like kind of period-based Technology with people that look like they're from the 60s you know in a in a library talking about time like I
01:52:54
Speaker
It needs more than that. The problem is I got that show now. It's on Apple TV with severance. Yeah. Yeah, dude. Sorry, Loki. You got to up your game now, man. It's true. Like there needs to be more outside of just the cool style of the show. Like there needs to be. I need to care about something. And I didn't get that from this trailer. Yeah, that's that's my thing. No, I get it. Next up, another horror movie, Exorcist Believer.
01:53:23
Speaker
Um, I don't know why, but I'm like weirdly into this movie. I don't like, I don't get it. I think it's a remake, right? It's a remake of the original. I think it's a recall, if anything, because there's the girl, the woman's like, I have experience with these kinds of things. It's the original. This looks like a fucking Blumhouse movie, man. It kind of does. And like, that's the thing about like the original Exorcist is it's like,
01:53:51
Speaker
It feels just like kind of feels like an A24 movie, not a Blum. No, like I wouldn't even say that. It feels like a documentary almost at points where it's like people just walking around Georgetown. Boom. Pazuzu right in your face. I'll tell you what, John, you're not that far off, man, because it kind of reminds me a bit of hereditary because there's a bunch of familiar drama that goes on before the actual actress. Yeah, you're right.
01:54:17
Speaker
And there's like, you know, there's a husband. There's lore. There's like lore behind it. There's like real world lore behind it. Real world drama. It's steeped in real like families falling apart. And what that means would be outside of the whole exorcism thing, you know? I don't know. I don't. It just looks like it might be better than
01:54:44
Speaker
we're worried that it won't, you know, it's just like, I hope it's good, you know, and I'm like, I don't hate what I'm saying. I guess, but I'm I have so little patience for this director with these equals.
01:54:58
Speaker
that he's doing with horror movies. Like I was not a fan of Halloween ends. Is this the same director? Yeah, David Gordon Green. Oh, I'm very excited to talk the same day. Yeah, that's the same day. All right. No, I think it's fucking what's his name, too, writing it. Peter Sowers, Sattler, Gordon Green, Scott Teens. No Kenny Powers. Yeah, no Kenny Powers in this one.
01:55:27
Speaker
Um, man. No, I forgot he direct. Well, I didn't realize he was the director. Was this logo always in the Beatles font? No. Yeah, it was. I think it was. Okay. That's it. I've ever noticed that. Sorry. No, it just looks like, yeah.
01:55:53
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, beautiful. I don't know. I never called it Beatles font before, but I don't know if I called that in the in the I'm looking at the poster of the original film like with the purple, right? Yeah, maybe. I'm looking at the two thirty three mark on the trailer right now. And that is like definitely like the Beatles for a album like vibe right there. Hmm.
01:56:21
Speaker
Two thirty three. Yeah, I guess it's the same. It's just it's just not it's black instead of purple. Yeah, I think the color is throwing you off. Yeah, wait, hold on. You know what? The E. No, Steve, I think a little bit of different fonts. Yeah, it is a little different font. Yeah, it's like almost the same like the E is a new one. It has the new one has serif. The T has fangs.
01:56:52
Speaker
No, all right Steve you win this round Maniac look at the Beatles logo, and you're like dang. That's the Beatles font The Beatles that's the same thing as the Exorcist
01:57:12
Speaker
Right there. Let me see. I mean, if the E was humongous, but Steve, what part of your brain has this weird font memory? Like where did the team? Why is that story? He's got the bag. He knows. Yeah. The team has the same facts, dude. They should. They should. You know what, Steve? You're right. You're 100 percent right. And they should just make the E enormous.
01:57:40
Speaker
And just. Or the R in the middle. Yeah. Why is that so big? Because it's R rated. Jesus Christ. All right. Well, I mean, Steve, that's legitimately impressive that you have like this font knowledge downloaded in your brain. I want to talk about the best trailer on this outside the killer of the ones posted. And that's the Godzilla minus one trailer. Yeah.
01:58:10
Speaker
That this looks that looks fucking good, man. This looks interesting. It does. I like that. It's a period piece. I like that. It takes place in like right when the bombing of Hiroshima happens. Godzilla gets woken up. That's crazy. That would be the worst. Direct sequel Oppenheimer then is what you're saying. Direct sequel Oppenheimer. Yeah. Yeah.
01:58:38
Speaker
I think that's cool. I think I'll be too. It's time to. It's a direct sequel to. Yeah, World War Two happens and then Godzilla minus one. And then. Vietnam. I think that's the order. No, this is cool. I just wonder if there's somebody who's like. You know, can we just as Japan, can we just do something that isn't fucking Godzilla? Because I feel like
01:59:09
Speaker
There's a God's like. They go to Godzilla well a lot, man. This is like this is like Godzilla was like 20 bread and butter, dude. Yeah, this is I know. That's the thing. I mean, like Toho Studios. This is like a how they made their fortune. Yeah. She got Zilla was six years in their fortune losing money on seven samurai. No. They make all that money back. No. OK.
01:59:38
Speaker
I did not make money off of Akira Kurosawa. Godzilla, they needed Godzilla to fund Kurosawa's budgets. That's what it was. No, but I mean, you are right, this is better than the majority of Godzilla movies that come out in America, like King Kong versus Godzilla. You know, it's not here, but there's that we talked about, I think the last episode, but there's that
02:00:05
Speaker
I don't know if it's what it's called. It's like the Monarch Legacy of Monsters show that has Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell playing like the same character. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That trailer came out. I mean, it's OK. It's not as good as this. But, you know, and that's very much based off of like the King Kong Skull Island universe. Like it has. Oh, my God. Why am I blanking on his name?
02:00:33
Speaker
Oh, my God. What the fuck is wrong with me? King Kong. King Kong. No, no. No, actor, actor. John Goodman. John Goodman? Yeah. Yeah. John Goodman's in Kong. Skull Island. Skull Island. Oh, yeah. We got to find Kong. So he's like talking to a video. It's OK. You know, it's a show, but it's, you know, clearly not connected, but is what it is.
02:00:59
Speaker
Um, let's see. Then there was a Five Nights at Freddy's trailer. Again, just following the you think this movie is going to make a lot of money? I think zoomers are going to see it. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Yes. They're going to show up, man. I think this one is going regardless of it being good or bad. Like you'll make more than Mario and Barbie. Whoa. It's going to make three billion. That's my Pokemon estimate from the year Endgame came out.
02:01:29
Speaker
Oh man. The Pikachu's gonna be the biggest movie ever made. Alright.
02:01:38
Speaker
You know that reminds me of that scene in dogma where the two angels were talking and Matt Damon's character thought crush group was gonna be more popular That guy Scott Cawthorn the creator Yeah, I think he's gonna be like a billionaire after this movie comes out. He's already kind of wealthy already. Yeah Yeah, how much more money?
02:02:07
Speaker
Well, he could donate to more horrible people I guess yes wait in trouble the first time. Yeah taking the JK Rowling route, you know There's some other things we'll talk about but salt burn you posted this Chris. Yes I Don't really know much of what this movie's about. But man, this trailer looked beautiful Interesting. Yeah gorgeous gorgeous trailer That alone probably will get me in the door to see this
02:02:37
Speaker
Yeah, that's all I can say. It just looks beautiful.
02:02:42
Speaker
Very hyper stylized and very colorful and. It's got that hot dude from Euphoria. I don't even know who that is. He's the dude with the earring. Barry Kugin's friend. Barry Kugin, I love. I love him. I really, I fell in love with him in Banshee's venture and he's so good. Oh, not the Batman? No, not the Batman deleted scene.
02:03:08
Speaker
No, not that. Not Dunkirk. I think it was Banshees that really made me think he's a great actor. So yeah, I'm in man. I mean, he's like a weirdo and you're like, that guy is probably really good at acting because he's weird. So why else would they hire him? It's quirky and he plays really interesting characters. He's really ran the gamut to like Dunkirk. He plays like this young shy kid and Banshees inch here and he's complete opposite. He's like.
02:03:38
Speaker
Fucking idiot. Yeah, yeah. Very sad where he says, there goes that dream and then, you know.
02:03:47
Speaker
You got to relate. You love him, though, like you still you care a lot about him in that man. I was thinking about watching that movie again because I watched Seven Psychopaths a couple of weeks ago, which I think is that director's first of those movies, like first movies like you did with Colin Farrell before in Bruges. Yeah, he did that. And then in Bruges. And then I think Banshees. OK.
02:04:14
Speaker
Um, and I love him Bruce man. Yeah. Also, I forgot how good what's his name. Um. Fucking I'm terrible with names. The same Rockwell is in seven psychopaths. He's. Ridiculous in that. But he's always good. Let's see. And then we got Aquaman teaser. OK, sure. You know, I just put it in there because it just popped up. I want to introduce a quick segment called Good News, Bad News.
02:04:45
Speaker
Good news. Miyazaki said, you know, I don't think I'm going to retire. You know what? I could use another Ferrari. Yeah. Another movie. I'll make another movie. You should make the Ferrari movie. There you go. I'll be so sick. You guys think it's because he needs money. I think it's because he knows he'll die the moment he retired. He's like, remember that deal you made with that vampire? Yeah, you can't.
02:05:15
Speaker
You can't go back on that. He seems to be, like, of that generation that the moment they retire, they just, they just die. Yeah, I mean, he looks like... He's hihachi, and the moment he stops, Akuma's gonna come visit him and kill him. 100%. That's what's gonna happen. He has to be unrelenting in his...
02:05:35
Speaker
and his stressful life. When you think his son's like, hey, dad, this is the idea that I have for the next few movies. And he's like, fuck it. Are you kidding me? I'm leaving. Jesus, I have to come back. This idiot is going to make these movies?
02:05:54
Speaker
Yeah. And then, uh, so hey, but hey, good news, right? Miyazaki's said, I'm still kicking. I got a lot left in the tank, baby. He, he gave John Cena the world's strongest slam and it's saving jacket. And I'm not retired. He's not Miyazaki. Yeah. And then, uh, and then bad news. Um,
02:06:16
Speaker
Saints Row Studio Volition is shutting down after 30 years. What the fuck did you do? They kind of got screwed over. Yeah, they got screwed over. They got embraced. The Embracer Group screwed him over. What does that mean? So this company, this company over the last couple of years, some context, this company called Embracer Group, have been buying up all these video game companies, like kind of like, where's all this? Who is this person with all this weird money just buying up companies?
02:06:44
Speaker
So they did that they came out with like a Essentially and it's its own PlayStation Plus, but it's a kind of a reboot of Saints Row Did not go over well very buggy was not successful and then Embracer group apparently lost a boatload of money in terms of
02:07:05
Speaker
Uh, what, what is the word I'm looking for? Steve, they were going to make good influx of cash and the deal fell through. Uh, so I think in order to kind of make up some of that money, because we spent a lot of money on the lure, the rings, uh, when they bought that IP, um, they have been shuttering some companies and militia was shut down. Uh, did, uh, did embrace her put out the Gollum game? I don't think so. Okay.
02:07:37
Speaker
But they did. Volition put out the Punisher game for some. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Volition has, you know, they were more than Saints Row. Obviously, Saints Row is their biggest name. And like, dude, Saints Row two, I think is awesome. It's one of my. It's I think my personal favorite of the Saints Row games that played a single Saints Row game.
02:08:03
Speaker
The Saints Row trilogy one, two and three, as I'll call it, was really fun and a good time. Yeah, just like an increasingly goofy series, you know, and it was like, hey, it was kind of like Saints Row two specifically for me. It's like, dude, this GTA four getting kind of snooty.
02:08:29
Speaker
Like play Saints Row 2, where you're shooting poop cannons at people to like make free money. You know, it was just like a lot of fun. Saints Row had like one of my favorite little like build in mini games where you're essentially you had like a minute to walk into traffic.
02:08:47
Speaker
And yeah, you're you're doing scams where you're essentially just like running into traffic, seeing how badly you could get hit by cars and then your lawyer would sue everybody. So you would just see your like your your money bar just like shoot through the roof. Yeah, because you basically ragdoll physics kind of like like.
02:09:07
Speaker
in burnout when you would like crash your car and then you just like aim at shit. Let's have you being a car. Yeah. Yeah. It was a lot of fun. My crude satire of video games ends at postal.
02:09:21
Speaker
Ah, you loved piano and stuff. Sorry, guys. But also outside of that, Descent, which is I weirdly played Descent 1. I remember Descent or Descent 2. It was like a doo-doo game or something. It's something like that. PlayStation. Yeah. I think I played on PlayStation or like the PC. The computers. The computer. Like when it was like instead of that, I played it on the computer. But what else? Oh, and then Red Faction.
02:09:51
Speaker
as their right. And then the Punisher, too. So, oh, they need a red faction gorilla. They did wish that game is also a lot of fun. It was the first game you play as a gorilla, an animal, right? Mm hmm. But the guy, I believe that would be Donkey Kong.
02:10:11
Speaker
How dare you also Chris slight correction I owe you an apologies inverse was before seven psychopaths. Yeah, that's my thought my bad I owe you an apology too. Oh, yeah for the poison you just wasn't familiar with your game Come on I was talking about postal. I'm by spelling with postal Get these a cat as a silencer. Can you guys remember that?
02:10:37
Speaker
Yeah, you did. They're funny. Devin, that's funny. Laugh. I've never played this. I laugh. Devin laugh. I haven't played that or Carmageddon. I know you're a big fan of that one. Son of a bitch! Stop talking about Carmageddon like it's a joke! Devin, why are you always talking about car vehicular? Carmageddon max damage. That one's good. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I think that's it for this episode. That's it, yeah. You want to talk about Carmageddon more?
02:11:09
Speaker
Yeah, you know, I got time. You know, I want to I do. I do want to let everyone in the audience know that on our list of things to talk about, Devin did post a teaser or he tried to sneak in a teaser for Aquaman two. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I even mentioned it didn't even quit. You did. Yeah, that's how quick it was. Aquaman two. Well, listen, I said Aquaman two. It's it's a teaser for the trailer that's going to come out next day. You're embarrassed by Aquaman now.
02:11:38
Speaker
Oh, the billion dollar franchise Aquaman. Yeah, you can be embarrassed by making that much money. It looks so good, you guys. OK. Yo, actually, I mean, we'll never remember this, but I am so interested to see the fall.
02:11:57
Speaker
of because you know how the DC movies just haven't been making any money for a variety of reasons. Oh, yeah. But it's like Aquaman made a billion dollars. This movie is going to make like two hundred million dollars. Well, it's not a variety of reasons. One reason being they make shitty movies. Oh, no, there's a bunch of reasons, though. You know, awful. I'll tell you the reason why this movie shouldn't have been made, because this is taking James Wan off of making malignant two.
02:12:27
Speaker
I don't even think he's doing it. Oh, no, no. You're right. He is doing this one. Save James one hashtag. Save James. Save James one. He's drowning with Aquaman. Drowning in debt. No, that's not true. He made the song. I mean, you know, he made the saw movies made a reverse bear trap. No one's ever seen them in cinema before James one.
02:12:53
Speaker
Well, so like when you say reverse bear trap, Mr. Juan, do you mean that like, it's a bear that captures people? Is that what you're saying it is? But that is in the next song movie. Of course, weren't we somewhere where a friend of ours thought
02:13:10
Speaker
Then we were talking about the reverse bear trap. She's like, yeah, yeah. So that's something you put on your vagina. What is wrong with you? And I'm like, well, she thought it was like it's the reverse of a bear trap. No, it's the functionality of the bear trap is reversed. It's going on. And so then, you know, that puts that horrible visual in your brain. Yeah, that's kind of weird. But you think that that that John what the hell is his name?
02:13:40
Speaker
with Oppenheimer, Oppenheimer, Stamos, John something, the villain of. So on Kramer, John Kramer Kramer. Do you think he wanted somebody walking around with a fucking bear trap attached to the deck, the whole movie? I'll be honest, I'd be more stressed if it was on my dick than it was with my face. I would have got out real quick. He laid on that dirty bathroom floor for like an hour and we're in the half, Steve.
02:14:07
Speaker
Yeah, but like he's been in there for a while. You're telling me that two doctors could have been like, that dude's blatantly alive. Steve, the doctor was chained to a pipe. He had to solve their foot off. I know. But they would have been like, who's that guy silently breathing? And he keeps farting. His sleep apnea kicks in. Oh, well, no, no, no, he wasn't sleeping because he was taking notes of what was going on. He's writing it in blood in the pile of blood. He was aware of everything.
02:14:46
Speaker
Sorry the key one down the drone in the movie caught it when you're waking up What he says it was under his breath Fucking embarrassment
02:15:00
Speaker
I can't wait taking you guys so long to get out of here. You fucking don't. It gets like Charlie or just just the first part of this. When you leave the bathroom is what it gets really good. I can't believe you guys never even got to the bathroom. Oh, my God, dude, I have like a paint can that I'm going to throw and it's going to hit you in the face. I played all this shit. Nobody's doing it. I feel like I'm just doing stuff and getting no reward whatsoever. That's the John Kramer. But you know, it's basically when Tim did our haunted house.
02:15:31
Speaker
He skipped all the good shit. Ran right up into the attic and turned off the creepy music. Yeah. How is that your first move? It was the creepiest part of a house. Yeah. And he just runs in and says, let me shut this off. Oh, let's John Kramer has deal with that on a daily basis, though. Oh, well, I mean, I guess that's why he starts at the bear trap. Oh, I've got your attention. And now it's even worse that those those Mexican surgeons fooled them into thinking that they actually cured his cancer. And now that's the new one, right?
02:16:07
Speaker
Really good idea for a new trap for a saw movie. Oh, yeah, we got. All right. You get ear piercings like your big like gauges, but you have ropes tied to basketballs at the end of it. And you just have a bunch of people just drill them as fast as you can. And you have to steal the balls. You have to steal them because they're not letting you go anywhere because they're dribbling really hard. So like you're swatting the basketballs, but the basketballs are flying and they're ripping your ear lobes.
02:16:28
Speaker
Oh, I'm so mad. You guys are so smart.
02:16:36
Speaker
What's, how do you get out of it? I think your earlobes rip off and then you just, you just free. You lose your earlobes, earlobes, earlobes. Yeah. You gotta lose those lubes real quick.
02:16:50
Speaker
So, all right. Are we done talking about salt? Let me end this, please. We'll be back next week with, um, more salt, more salt. It is coming. Salt 10 is coming. So, oh yeah. And PAW Patrol. Saul patrol. Steve, you're the first person to make that joke. I'm leaving my hand at the audience before I get assassinated. Yeah, please do.
02:17:18
Speaker
What the hell, Devin? What? Please do. I mean, please wave. Please do get a chance. What am I going to do? Stop the bullet? I'm not bulletproof. I'm not even in the same room as you. You can't stop the bullet. You're shooting the bullet. I'm across. I'm in the library. Hey, you know what? If COVID wasn't a thing, I could have stumped in front.
02:17:37
Speaker
You guys are never going to get out of my Saul traps. I just want to tell you that right now. What do you mean? My earlows rip off and then I'm putting a reverse bear trap on your balls. You got basketball fucking Saul traps is the only thing I got up my sleeve. Give me a break.
02:17:53
Speaker
I got a bunch of stuff. I got stuff with candles and stuff. I bet Chris, you have a chill dog to watch all of one piece. You guys are going to have to deal with a real hungry dog at one point. It's going to be scary. A hungry dog, dude. It's going to be real scary and you're going to be real scared. I put on so much Fox News, dude. I put a key in that pair of lasagna in front of you. I'll have to eat the key or eat the lasagna. Also, there's a hungry dog in the room with you. Everybody is going to be wearing a bucket. OK.
02:18:22
Speaker
That's it. That's all I'm giving you. All right. I'm keeping the rest of myself. I'm keeping the cards to my. You know, it's not a normal bucket. I'm just throwing out. What's so special about your. I'm not explaining it because then you'll know how to get out of it before I put you in the bucket. I heard John's been in a bucket for the last two weeks in preparation. I think he knows. Devon, I have to test. Maybe I do. I have to test these things before I put them on you because I know you get out of the bucket. It's not in the saw trap. It's just Steve and I.
02:18:52
Speaker
It's a test for John. He's fine. He's going to be fine. He's one of my favorites again by not having John wear the bucket too. I'm not sure how you guys are going to handle the bucket because I want to test it on John first. And he's obviously figured it out. He seems like he's not that stressed out about it. That's the thing. You know what? He tested on John because John's the smart one. Yeah, exactly. And I have to work around John. And as soon as I figure everything perfect, you cross my T's, dot my I's.
02:19:19
Speaker
Dr. T is across my eyes. You guys will be wearing a bucket. You won't be able to get out of it. And I'll be laughing. That simple. What if we just went? This is what Chris has to do to level up to level five in the ballers. You guys aren't going to be able to break out of this bucket. I'm sorry, dude.
02:19:43
Speaker
I am the bucket. Fuck you, you're not a bucket. You don't even see the bucket yet, all right? All I do is drop buckets, bro. I gotta change this whole thing up. It can't be a bucket, no. Thank you. See, Steve, that's how you get, they just annoyed John Kramer enough. They're like, ah, fuck it, I'll drop, cut the bucket. It's not funny.
02:20:06
Speaker
It's not funny. Thank you. The bucket would have been super violent and scary, but now you guys ruined it. So I gotta think of something else. Probably a bigger bucket, but we'll see. Come on, man. Thank you. The big bucket. Everybody's going to be in a big bucket. Like a bucket of
