WEBVTT 00:00:03.709 --> 00:00:08.390 Captain. Captain. Captain Tom, what's gotten 00:00:08.390 --> 00:00:12.490 into you? Captain? What? Captain, our integrity 00:00:12.490 --> 00:00:15.210 is at 32%. Any more of this and we're going to 00:00:15.210 --> 00:00:18.289 be Gordon Chowder. Captain Gordon, what are you 00:00:18.289 --> 00:00:21.649 on about? Captain, oh for fuck's sake. Breach 00:00:21.649 --> 00:00:27.550 to engineering. Engineering. Hello? Thank God. 00:00:27.690 --> 00:00:29.829 Rob, what's the status of the solar displacement 00:00:29.829 --> 00:00:33.130 array? The what? The solar displacement array. 00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:35.359 Yeah, I'm still not getting you. Fuck's sake. 00:00:35.619 --> 00:00:38.719 Rob? Oh, shit, Tom. What the hell's going on? 00:00:38.899 --> 00:00:40.920 Why am I in an engineering room on a ship that 00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:42.939 looks older than your mum's knickers? Oh, have 00:00:42.939 --> 00:00:44.659 you known my mum's knickers are always fresh 00:00:44.659 --> 00:00:47.659 and new? No, sorry, of course. You're right. 00:00:47.780 --> 00:00:49.880 Your mum's knickers are wonderful and so is she. 00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:52.479 Sorry, I'm just a little bit confused. Right, 00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:55.179 apology accepted. Now then, what mess have you 00:00:55.179 --> 00:00:57.700 gotten us into now? Me? You're the one who broke 00:00:57.700 --> 00:01:00.659 the quantum time field manipulation mirror. No, 00:01:00.659 --> 00:01:05.000 I didn't. You fucking did. No, I was snogging 00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:07.680 to Paul. You got jealous and smashed it with 00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.819 your big fat face. I have a fat face? Sorry, 00:01:10.980 --> 00:01:14.000 sorry, I'm stressed too. What the fuck are you 00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:16.299 two on about? One second, we're just having a 00:01:16.299 --> 00:01:19.239 chat about something. Sir, it is hardly the time. 00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:22.760 Did she call you sir? Yeah, apparently I'm captain. 00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:26.620 Oh no, we really are fucked. Twat. Look. Clearly 00:01:26.620 --> 00:01:28.599 what's happened is smashing the mirror caused 00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:31.140 a time -dimensional fluctuation flare that has 00:01:31.140 --> 00:01:33.480 transported us into a mirror dimension. It's 00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:36.239 easily solved. Oh yeah? Yeah, we just need to 00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:38.540 reset the watches and press the button. It will 00:01:38.540 --> 00:01:40.920 reverse the transgenital recuperator array and 00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:43.379 transfigure our molecular diapathic thresholds 00:01:43.379 --> 00:01:45.200 to realign them with our original dimension. 00:01:45.420 --> 00:01:48.560 It's simple, really. Yeah, sounds it. Another 00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:55.319 TrekTube video, was it? No, Trektop. Ah. Ah? 00:01:55.950 --> 00:01:59.349 My watch appears to be malfunctioning. Try yours. 00:02:01.170 --> 00:02:08.330 Fuck. Captain, please. Yes, sorry. The Gorn, 00:02:08.409 --> 00:02:12.689 Rob. Is the thingy ready? If by thingy you mean 00:02:12.689 --> 00:02:15.330 the solar displacement array, which is actually 00:02:15.330 --> 00:02:17.770 a Scotty Gorn transponder, then yes, it's ready. 00:02:17.969 --> 00:02:20.289 I saw it in pieces on the desk here. You know, 00:02:20.370 --> 00:02:22.650 I once hostiled with a Gorn back on my gap year 00:02:22.650 --> 00:02:25.819 on Parnassus Beta. Galfark, his name was. Lovely 00:02:25.819 --> 00:02:28.360 chap. Great hair. But yeah, anyway, ancient technology. 00:02:28.620 --> 00:02:30.139 You know, my mum had the first one ever built 00:02:30.139 --> 00:02:33.340 on a mantelpiece for years. Great. Terminal, 00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:39.939 then. Right, mate. She's bossy. Ah. Where's that 00:02:39.939 --> 00:02:43.939 ah again? It appears this dimension's gone. Don't 00:02:43.939 --> 00:02:46.300 use the same transponder frequency as the ones 00:02:46.300 --> 00:02:52.020 we're familiar with. Oh, dear. Hull integrity's 00:02:52.020 --> 00:02:58.280 of 5%. Gorn boarding parties are on decks 3, 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:05.539 9, 19 and 21. All personnel, abandon ship. It's 00:03:05.539 --> 00:03:07.939 been a pleasure serving with you, Captain. Have 00:03:07.939 --> 00:03:10.439 a problem? I'm aware, but there's no time for 00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:12.800 a psychiatry session. The Gorn have breached 00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:14.800 engineering. I don't plan on becoming a warm 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:17.719 meat sack for a Gorn nightmare fetus. Computers, 00:03:17.780 --> 00:03:20.419 start self -destruct sequence. Um, Tom Alpha 00:03:20.419 --> 00:03:31.370 69. Affirmative. Gone. On the bridge. Return 00:03:31.370 --> 00:03:36.250 fire. It's got me. I don't want to be fucked 00:03:36.250 --> 00:03:38.349 by a super mutant lizard. Tom, Tom, it's going 00:03:38.349 --> 00:03:57.719 to exit me. Rob, no. Jesus Christ, what the bloody 00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:41.050 hell happened? Where are we now? I don't know 00:04:41.050 --> 00:04:44.389 if Ashley got caught on this one. Hello, and 00:04:44.389 --> 00:04:50.529 welcome to the Untitled Stupid Idiot Show. I'm 00:04:50.529 --> 00:04:54.430 Rob, he's Tom. Hi. It's been ages. It has been 00:04:54.430 --> 00:04:57.730 ages. But sci -fi has happened. Lots of sci -fi 00:04:57.730 --> 00:05:01.970 has happened. Lots of sausage -y sci -fi has 00:05:01.970 --> 00:05:03.889 happened, and lots of sausage -y sci -fi to talk 00:05:03.889 --> 00:05:06.810 about, so let's get on with it. No. But first... 00:05:06.810 --> 00:05:11.990 Beep, beep, boop, beep, click, click, beep. Right, 00:05:12.069 --> 00:05:16.689 there was a, I guess the intro, how many weeks 00:05:16.689 --> 00:05:20.850 ago? A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away. 00:05:21.149 --> 00:05:23.189 Four, six weeks ago, whenever the last time we 00:05:23.189 --> 00:05:25.810 had an episode. And we had a winner, as I just 00:05:25.810 --> 00:05:29.889 recalled by going through one of my socials. 00:05:30.829 --> 00:05:38.410 And the winner, drumroll please. Thank you. Incredibly 00:05:38.410 --> 00:05:43.220 realistic drumroll. James. James. I'm not going 00:05:43.220 --> 00:05:45.399 to say his surname. James, well done, mate. That's 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:49.740 at jimbo8e6 .bluesky .social. He once again, 00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:53.540 for his second time, he's the first person to 00:05:53.540 --> 00:05:55.879 ever get it done right twice, I think. I think 00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:58.649 so. I think so. Not even... Manage that one. 00:05:58.930 --> 00:06:04.110 Beep that. Stop. Stop. No, no, we're not saying 00:06:04.110 --> 00:06:07.490 names. No, I'm going to start dropping that R 00:06:07.490 --> 00:06:13.389 word in all of that. I nearly did when we were 00:06:13.389 --> 00:06:16.449 outside the church. It was God that stopped me. 00:06:16.569 --> 00:06:19.329 Right. So well done, James. You've got all six 00:06:19.329 --> 00:06:21.970 of these correct. And I actually had to go into 00:06:21.970 --> 00:06:25.250 your. message to me to remind myself what they 00:06:25.250 --> 00:06:29.949 even were well done so let me just open up the 00:06:29.949 --> 00:06:31.709 file and we're playing we'll say i will guess 00:06:31.709 --> 00:06:36.129 along with you he's pointing at this because 00:06:36.129 --> 00:06:38.310 i haven't unmuted it i was just gonna say i didn't 00:06:38.310 --> 00:06:40.670 know if you'd remembered or not i hadn't thank 00:06:40.670 --> 00:06:54.939 you In a response, normal. Okay. Are we talking 00:06:54.939 --> 00:06:56.819 films here or are they games? They're all films. 00:06:56.860 --> 00:07:00.779 No, they're films. Not Robocop, is it? Nope. 00:07:01.420 --> 00:07:22.360 Pin? Blue. Blue. Smurfs? Miranda and I went to 00:07:22.360 --> 00:07:25.680 Disney's version of their land while we were 00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:30.500 on holiday. Well, that was either Super Mario. 00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:33.160 I think I sent you a photo. Oh, shit. Really? 00:07:33.300 --> 00:07:37.740 Floating Islands. I can't read that from here. 00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:41.079 She's cheating. She's cheating. Go on. Tell me 00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:44.120 what it is. Go on, Miranda. Avatar. She didn't 00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.379 even hear the clear picture. Avatar. There we 00:07:46.379 --> 00:07:49.779 go. Avatar. So that did get... Should have caught 00:07:49.779 --> 00:07:52.339 James out at first, and then I allowed him to 00:07:52.339 --> 00:07:55.740 try again on that one. Right. Yeah. If you can 00:07:55.740 --> 00:07:58.779 just about hear them say, Jake, Jake. So this 00:07:58.779 --> 00:08:01.220 is the scene just where he's very first got put 00:08:01.220 --> 00:08:02.680 into the Avatar and they're waking him up. I 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:07.000 have only seen Avatar once. I wasn't blown away 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.319 with it, I'm afraid. I've not watched the second 00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:12.779 one. The second one's really good. It makes you 00:08:12.779 --> 00:08:16.430 actually care about a space whale. Genuinely 00:08:16.430 --> 00:08:18.970 care about a space whale. More than Free Willy 00:08:18.970 --> 00:08:20.850 does. That's not a space whale, but you know 00:08:20.850 --> 00:08:23.170 what I mean. I don't know what you watch. Right, 00:08:24.350 --> 00:08:28.629 next. It was so strange hearing Shepard's voice 00:08:28.629 --> 00:08:32.889 in the mouth of that creature last night. That's 00:08:32.889 --> 00:08:36.389 a never sexy one. It's not meant to be. I think 00:08:36.389 --> 00:08:38.169 this was a really tough one, so I was surprised 00:08:38.169 --> 00:08:40.269 that anybody got it. I wouldn't get this, I don't 00:08:40.269 --> 00:08:43.289 think. Clue? Annihilation. Annihilation by any 00:08:43.289 --> 00:08:44.789 chance, because of the one you said earlier. 00:08:45.190 --> 00:08:48.049 Yeah, okay. It's annihilation. Yeah, well done. 00:08:48.450 --> 00:08:51.789 Okay, next one. I don't even know what annihilation 00:08:51.789 --> 00:08:57.629 is. So I think there's something on Earth, isn't 00:08:57.629 --> 00:09:00.470 it? Like an area on Earth that's infected with 00:09:00.470 --> 00:09:02.169 something. I'm going to have to IMDB now. And 00:09:02.169 --> 00:09:05.100 they go into it. Isn't that what happens in Annihilation, 00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:08.500 Miranda? Annihilation. I'd never even heard of 00:09:08.500 --> 00:09:11.620 it. The Netflix thing, I think. Annihilation. 00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:13.600 I remember it being very good, and she's talking 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.340 about a giant mutant bear thing. It's like when 00:09:16.340 --> 00:09:18.220 creatures go into it, they kind of morph into 00:09:18.220 --> 00:09:20.480 these versions of themselves, all these gross 00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:22.620 things. It kind of does it to people, too. Oh, 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:24.460 Natalie Portman. Yeah, Natalie Portman's in it, 00:09:24.539 --> 00:09:29.440 yeah. A biologist signs up for a dangerous secret 00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:31.500 expedition in which the laws of nature don't 00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:34.250 apply. Not a clue. Never heard of it. Oh, it's 00:09:34.250 --> 00:09:36.110 really good. You should watch it. Recommended. 00:09:36.570 --> 00:09:41.009 Seal of approval. Stamp. Right, next one. As 00:09:41.009 --> 00:09:43.830 far as you go. No matter what I do. This is as 00:09:43.830 --> 00:09:47.129 far as you ever make it. Okay, that sounds funny 00:09:47.129 --> 00:09:48.809 because I had to cut it down. So that's little 00:09:48.809 --> 00:09:51.690 Tommy Cruise. Little Tom Cruise. Little Tommy 00:09:51.690 --> 00:09:54.009 Cruise. Little Tommy Cruise. Yeah, that's him. 00:09:54.789 --> 00:09:57.750 As far as you get. So it's not Oblivion. It's 00:09:57.750 --> 00:10:01.720 not the one we like. What one are you saying 00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:04.259 the one we like? We like all of them. Everyone 00:10:04.259 --> 00:10:06.860 with him. The one we literally watched, or I 00:10:06.860 --> 00:10:09.399 watched the other day, where they have the Ooloo 00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:11.659 pee -pee -poo -poo women in milk and the wooden 00:10:11.659 --> 00:10:14.539 balls. Can't think of it. Minority Report, there 00:10:14.539 --> 00:10:17.639 you go. There's a crack in the film, that one. 00:10:17.779 --> 00:10:20.259 Righto, that's the best thing there is. When 00:10:20.259 --> 00:10:23.299 did you say Ooloo pee -pee -poo -poo? That's 00:10:23.299 --> 00:10:26.059 Adam and Joe. I'm blaming Adam and Joe for that 00:10:26.059 --> 00:10:31.480 one. He was laughing when you said that. He's 00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:33.879 gone. And Miranda in the background is crying. 00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:37.000 Yeah, that was his example of, Miranda, of what 00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:40.799 he thinks the girls in the water, the milky water. 00:10:40.820 --> 00:10:43.200 The milky water? What was it you said the first 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:45.200 time? The hula -peep -peep -peep. No, you said, 00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:46.740 who are peep -peep -peeping in the milky water? 00:10:49.779 --> 00:10:52.919 With the marbles. Right, yeah. Edge of tomorrow? 00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.139 Edge of tomorrow, that's right, yeah. Yeah, because 00:10:55.139 --> 00:10:58.629 as far as we ever got, well done. Try harder. 00:10:58.809 --> 00:11:02.730 Yeah, must try harder. Next. A still suit is 00:11:02.730 --> 00:11:06.429 a high -efficiency filtration system. Come on. 00:11:07.490 --> 00:11:12.909 Still suit. Oh. Round to play along. Still suit. 00:11:12.970 --> 00:11:16.769 What's the film? Still suit? What films have 00:11:16.769 --> 00:11:23.429 they got still suits? They've got still suits. 00:11:23.490 --> 00:11:25.690 Lots of people have them, yeah. You have to have 00:11:25.690 --> 00:11:30.590 one. Oh, she will not survive. Arrakis. Oh, Dune. 00:11:30.950 --> 00:11:34.570 Dune, yay. Still not seen it. I think it's actually 00:11:34.570 --> 00:11:38.049 from the remade ones, but I didn't care. Anyone, 00:11:38.169 --> 00:11:40.750 could you say Dune? I didn't care. You haven't 00:11:40.750 --> 00:11:44.610 seen Dune? No. The original? No. Either of the 00:11:44.610 --> 00:11:48.610 new ones? No. Oh, dear God. Too long. What we 00:11:48.610 --> 00:11:53.090 are? What are we? Oh, man, why do I got to be 00:11:53.090 --> 00:11:54.429 the guy that tells the kids there's no Santa 00:11:54.429 --> 00:11:57.049 Claus? Oh, well, that's Steve Buscemi. That's 00:11:57.049 --> 00:12:00.389 Steve Buscemi, yeah. Oh, shit. I can tell you 00:12:00.389 --> 00:12:03.450 the actors are in it. Go on, then. So, Scottie 00:12:03.450 --> 00:12:07.429 Hanson was the female there. And the other male 00:12:07.429 --> 00:12:11.549 was... Who plays Obi -Wan Kenobi? Ewan McGregor. 00:12:11.590 --> 00:12:15.509 Ewan McGregor. Come, Randa. Oh, The Island. There 00:12:15.509 --> 00:12:18.509 you go. Great film. Yeah, brilliant film. Loved 00:12:18.509 --> 00:12:25.590 that one. Deserves more love. What? The phone 00:12:25.590 --> 00:12:33.429 down. Oh, fuck me. I love that. It's such a good 00:12:33.429 --> 00:12:40.149 scene. Oh, is that Bruce Willis? No. Who is it? 00:12:40.649 --> 00:12:44.590 Seth Rogen was the voice of the character. You 00:12:44.590 --> 00:12:52.820 also had Simon Pegg. Oh. No. So Seth Rogen is 00:12:52.820 --> 00:12:55.440 the voice of a computerised character, and then 00:12:55.440 --> 00:13:00.039 it's the normal chaps, Nick Frost and Simon Pegg, 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:03.259 are the other two. Yeah. And it's sci -fi. It's 00:13:03.259 --> 00:13:05.399 not World's End, because that's not what this 00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:09.120 is about. Not Paul? Yeah. I've never seen Paul. 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:12.399 That's where they first see Paul. Oh, yeah, I've 00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:14.399 never seen it. It's on my list to watch, but 00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:15.500 I've just never got round to watching it. I'm 00:13:15.500 --> 00:13:17.580 pretty sure Seth Rogen does Paul's voice. I'm 00:13:17.580 --> 00:13:19.909 sure he does. More than likely. It sounds like 00:13:19.909 --> 00:13:21.549 the sort of thing you do. Well, you know, send 00:13:21.549 --> 00:13:25.210 your corrections to I don't give a fudge. No, 00:13:25.269 --> 00:13:27.110 you don't. That's a lie. Send them to Karen. 00:13:27.809 --> 00:13:32.370 Yeah, send them to Karen. What? What? I said 00:13:32.370 --> 00:13:35.250 right while taking a whole swig of tea. Okay, 00:13:35.350 --> 00:13:37.750 that's it. Well done, James. You may have noticed 00:13:37.750 --> 00:13:39.750 at the start of the episode today there was no 00:13:39.750 --> 00:13:41.809 guest intro because I'm not doing one this week. 00:13:41.850 --> 00:13:43.509 I'm having a break because I've got something 00:13:43.509 --> 00:13:46.110 else going on. You're glad to know it was Seth 00:13:46.110 --> 00:13:48.279 Rogen. It was Seth Rogen. It was Seth Rogen. 00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:58.080 Okay, brilliant. Wicked. Next. That's a spaceship 00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:02.379 warping, obviously. Go on and enlighten everybody 00:14:02.379 --> 00:14:04.019 with what you've been up to. Oh, actually, I 00:14:04.019 --> 00:14:06.259 probably should say, we're not talking about 00:14:06.259 --> 00:14:08.919 War of the Worlds today. No. We're going to do 00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:10.299 that next time. We are going to do it. Don't 00:14:10.299 --> 00:14:13.179 worry. I just wanted to just chat. Yeah, we need 00:14:13.179 --> 00:14:14.820 to get back into the swing of it. Just talk stuff. 00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:18.139 Be silly. So, yeah, what have you been up to? 00:14:19.019 --> 00:14:22.639 Ooh, what haven't I been up to? Well, hmm. Okay, 00:14:22.700 --> 00:14:24.639 gaming. Should we go with that first? Go on, 00:14:24.659 --> 00:14:29.980 go on. I'll allow it. So I started Sniper Elite 00:14:29.980 --> 00:14:34.710 Resistance. Good. And I finished it. Mark on 00:14:34.710 --> 00:14:36.830 your thing for get finished games this year. 00:14:36.870 --> 00:14:38.269 Oh, shit, you're right. I've got to add that 00:14:38.269 --> 00:14:40.409 to my list. I think I've been putting a note 00:14:40.409 --> 00:14:43.269 for you. Let me have a look. No, I've got a spreadsheet 00:14:43.269 --> 00:14:45.169 running. I need to add it to my spreadsheet. 00:14:45.169 --> 00:14:48.070 You're right. So I played through that. Absolutely 00:14:48.070 --> 00:14:49.889 phenomenal, just like all the others have been. 00:14:51.029 --> 00:14:54.769 Gratuitous, gory, Nazi -killing fun. There's 00:14:54.769 --> 00:14:57.450 nothing more to it. Beautifully done. The cities 00:14:57.450 --> 00:14:59.929 that are created are just absolutely massive. 00:15:00.409 --> 00:15:03.539 It's just... you could well i did i spent two 00:15:03.539 --> 00:15:07.740 to three hours at minimum on each level and i 00:15:07.740 --> 00:15:11.240 didn't even find all the collectibles they are 00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:13.600 just absolutely massive and that was me being 00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.519 every time you get classed about how you did 00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:19.179 in the level and mine was always towards assault 00:15:19.179 --> 00:15:22.000 and deadly when it's meant to be stealth and 00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:25.019 quiet yeah so the fact that i'm kind of guns 00:15:25.019 --> 00:15:27.259 blazing it and it's still taking me three hours 00:15:27.259 --> 00:15:30.570 to give you an idea of how big the created areas 00:15:30.570 --> 00:15:33.429 are. And they're so detailed. Well, I joined 00:15:33.429 --> 00:15:35.590 in for a bit, didn't I? You did. You got us killed 00:15:35.590 --> 00:15:39.409 straight away. Not so much stuff happened. The 00:15:39.409 --> 00:15:41.669 Gestapo didn't like you. Let's put it that way. 00:15:41.750 --> 00:15:43.129 Yeah, they didn't like me. They heard you were 00:15:43.129 --> 00:15:45.049 a Spurs fan. I was all about that freedom and 00:15:45.049 --> 00:15:47.570 they weren't having any of that. No. So, there 00:15:47.570 --> 00:15:50.440 was that. I think that's the only game I play. 00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:53.440 I was horribly disappointed with PGA Tour by 00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:56.120 EA. I'm not going to bother going into that, 00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:57.820 but it turns out I can't cancel my order with 00:15:57.820 --> 00:16:00.419 games, so golden tea for the win. Oh, you can't 00:16:00.419 --> 00:16:02.019 cancel it? You can't cancel it? It was too late. 00:16:02.299 --> 00:16:04.470 No. You can just send it back. I'm not going 00:16:04.470 --> 00:16:06.590 to. I'm going to keep it. You can just send it 00:16:06.590 --> 00:16:08.850 back. No, we're going to have... Not what I expected. 00:16:08.909 --> 00:16:11.470 We are going to have golden tea fun at my house. 00:16:11.549 --> 00:16:13.669 Okay, cool. Any of you that don't know what golden 00:16:13.669 --> 00:16:15.850 tea is, it was the best golf game that a pub 00:16:15.850 --> 00:16:18.049 could ever have. It had a giant track ball in 00:16:18.049 --> 00:16:20.950 the middle and many a time we nearly broke fingers 00:16:20.950 --> 00:16:24.029 and hurt ourselves. I wonder how heavy it is. 00:16:24.049 --> 00:16:25.789 Do you reckon we could get it in my van? Probably. 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:29.539 We could do like a golden tea night. I'm not 00:16:29.539 --> 00:16:31.399 saying that we can do it yours. I'm just saying. 00:16:31.500 --> 00:16:35.080 No, 100 % we can. So these cabinets are by a 00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:37.200 company called One Up Arcade. And they sell them 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:40.340 in Smiths, the toy shop. And they do a Mortal 00:16:40.340 --> 00:16:41.840 Kombat. Oh, it's those ones. I've seen the Mortal 00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:43.919 Kombat one. Yeah. They do Mortal Kombat. They've 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:46.259 got a Street Fighter one. So is it a micro cabinet? 00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:48.679 No, it's full size this one. Well, the Mortal 00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:50.679 Kombat ones are full size now as well. And the 00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:53.200 Pac -Man. They do a three quarter size as well 00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:56.299 and all sorts. they've got an lcd panel in them 00:16:56.299 --> 00:17:00.019 so it's a it's an lcd panel it's reinforced glass 00:17:00.019 --> 00:17:01.919 in front of it because mark will be playing probably 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:05.880 perspex but either way uh it should be light 00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:07.839 it's only going to be a plywood cabinet it's 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:09.859 not going to be anything plywood it doesn't have 00:17:09.859 --> 00:17:12.279 the crt in it anymore and it's probably a new 00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:14.160 kind of board well it's got multiple games in 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:15.640 it right because the original was just yeah i 00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:17.640 don't know which version i'm guessing because 00:17:18.269 --> 00:17:21.109 So at the moment, they're selling the 35th anniversary. 00:17:21.109 --> 00:17:25.549 So 35 years old Golden Tee. Oh, God. And that 00:17:25.549 --> 00:17:28.130 seems to have more games on it. And game really 00:17:28.130 --> 00:17:31.309 have listed very little about this cabinet. So 00:17:31.309 --> 00:17:33.410 I really don't know what version is coming. I 00:17:33.410 --> 00:17:35.269 can't believe Golden Tee is older than I am. 00:17:36.990 --> 00:17:40.329 If you want to believe that. But the fun thing, 00:17:40.329 --> 00:17:42.809 I say, the fun thing will be who gets the brown 00:17:42.809 --> 00:17:46.200 shirt. Oh, yeah, well, John Rule. Is John going 00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:48.319 to be on there? John Rule, ooh. Have we spoken 00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:49.680 about John Rule on the show before? We must have. 00:17:49.720 --> 00:17:51.119 We have on the Variety show. I don't think we've 00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:53.220 done it on this. So the John Rule, I invented 00:17:53.220 --> 00:17:56.279 this rule. So there was a guy in the kitchen 00:17:56.279 --> 00:17:59.960 called John, and there just so happens to always 00:17:59.960 --> 00:18:03.980 be somebody, like a computer -generated person 00:18:03.980 --> 00:18:06.180 on the leaderboard called John, J -O -N, because 00:18:06.180 --> 00:18:12.160 there's only three letters. And John wasn't particularly 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:17.519 good at it. And nor was the fake John. So we 00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:20.420 come up, well, I remember saying, I don't remember 00:18:20.420 --> 00:18:22.059 who I said it to first. Maybe I even said it 00:18:22.059 --> 00:18:24.420 to you first. We need to have a rule where you, 00:18:24.500 --> 00:18:29.599 to up the ante of the game, you have to beat 00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:32.500 John. No matter when you're playing, everyone 00:18:32.500 --> 00:18:35.259 is in the John rule. but you can't if you're 00:18:35.259 --> 00:18:36.920 not going to play the general you have to announce 00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:39.240 you're not playing the general before anybody 00:18:39.240 --> 00:18:42.759 hits the ball so if you hit if anyone in your 00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:44.640 group hits the ball and you haven't announced 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:46.099 you're not playing the general you're in tough 00:18:46.099 --> 00:18:48.579 you can't get out of it so you have to be you 00:18:48.579 --> 00:18:51.180 have to finish and beat john on the scoreboard 00:18:51.180 --> 00:18:53.200 which is actually very easy to do you basically 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:56.059 just had to not triple bogey every single hole 00:18:56.059 --> 00:19:00.259 half the time well The forfeit was... Which, 00:19:00.299 --> 00:19:02.740 can I just say, was harder to do at the pub because 00:19:02.740 --> 00:19:05.859 that trackball got knackered. Yeah, we know whose 00:19:05.859 --> 00:19:11.720 fault that was. Mark! Mark! And it... Basically, 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:14.039 the forfeit was, if you didn't beat John, it 00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:17.759 was trousers and pants down or off, round the 00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:19.660 entire circumference of the outside of the pub, 00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:23.319 and back in again. I... Apparently, two people 00:19:23.319 --> 00:19:25.119 failed. I've only ever seen one person fail. 00:19:25.140 --> 00:19:27.220 It was my cousin Adam, and he did it. You said 00:19:27.220 --> 00:19:28.920 Del failed. Del did it. The manager failed and 00:19:28.920 --> 00:19:31.059 went and did it. Del did it. He was playing against 00:19:31.059 --> 00:19:33.500 Adam and a couple of others. My cousin Adam. 00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.759 No, as in Adam and Amanda, who used to sit on 00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:38.599 the barge and came with them. Oh, yeah, Adam 00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:42.119 and Amanda, yes. Yeah, so... And they played 00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:45.519 the John rule. I think there were a couple of 00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:47.940 others of us playing with them as well. Wasn't 00:19:47.940 --> 00:19:50.079 Amanda disabled? Yeah, well, she wasn't playing. 00:19:50.359 --> 00:19:51.819 Yeah, I know, but I'm just trying to remember. 00:19:51.819 --> 00:19:55.099 Yeah, she was wheelchair bound. So, no, that... 00:19:55.339 --> 00:19:57.680 That's turning up at some point. I never know. 00:19:57.720 --> 00:19:59.819 It could be tomorrow. I really hope it's got 00:19:59.819 --> 00:20:02.019 John on there. Oh, my gosh. We can reignite. 00:20:02.099 --> 00:20:05.779 And you live on your mid -terrace. It's got Wi 00:20:05.779 --> 00:20:09.480 -Fi. It's got Wi -Fi. So it's got live scoreboards. 00:20:09.660 --> 00:20:11.880 Oh, no. Imagine if the person who's like top 00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:15.259 of the world charts is called John. Oh, no. But 00:20:15.259 --> 00:20:18.279 it's literally got live scores every day. Oh, 00:20:18.339 --> 00:20:20.279 that's really cool. Which I think is really cool. 00:20:20.759 --> 00:20:24.039 so uh yes i'm looking forward to that one that's 00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:26.099 all the gaming film wise obviously we launched 00:20:26.099 --> 00:20:28.500 the land before prime which all of us are involved 00:20:28.500 --> 00:20:31.359 in all of us from the variety show untouched 00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:33.619 sci -fi show lightly used who takes the socks 00:20:33.619 --> 00:20:37.200 off all taking turns at reviewing old dvds or 00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:39.839 cinema releases nothing streaming hence the reason 00:20:39.839 --> 00:20:42.599 it's called i have a question about it what if 00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:45.400 say like the lord of the rings i have it on blu 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:48.069 -ray and dvd but it's also on streaming Yeah, 00:20:48.130 --> 00:20:50.289 the only thing I would say about that, the idea 00:20:50.289 --> 00:20:54.789 of the DVDs was to also say about the bonus sort 00:20:54.789 --> 00:20:56.150 of stuff. Because you don't get that bonus stuff 00:20:56.150 --> 00:20:58.809 for streaming, do you? So sometimes a DVD has 00:20:58.809 --> 00:21:00.690 some really cracking bits to it. So as long as 00:21:00.690 --> 00:21:03.440 you know what the score is, not a problem. But 00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:05.500 I should be aiming to, I mean, I've got loads 00:21:05.500 --> 00:21:08.480 of DVDs, be picking something that actually isn't 00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:11.720 available on streaming. Ideally, ideally. And 00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:13.220 one of the things I'm planning on doing, I'm 00:21:13.220 --> 00:21:15.480 going to drop an email to Crap Exchange, C -E 00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:17.920 -X, and say, look, you have an entire shelf dedicated 00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:22.299 to £1 DVDs. If I give you £5 once a month, can 00:21:22.299 --> 00:21:24.819 you randomly choose some DVDs for us to send 00:21:24.819 --> 00:21:28.380 to our reviewers and have it as the C -E -X pick? 00:21:28.940 --> 00:21:31.000 All we just do ourselves is walk into the shop 00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:33.640 and just grab the first five on the list. That's 00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:35.539 not a bad idea. Close your eyes and just grab 00:21:35.539 --> 00:21:37.440 five. Either way, so that's what we're doing. 00:21:37.539 --> 00:21:39.099 So the first three reviews I've done, and I'll 00:21:39.099 --> 00:21:42.779 cover them off here. Elio, which was Pixar. Beautiful, 00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:46.000 bright -coloured. Still don't like this new animation 00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:48.640 style they're going with, which looks like Wallace 00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:52.519 and Gromit on CGI steroids. They seem to do this. 00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:57.319 They went from Toy Story and Inside Out. to these 00:21:57.319 --> 00:21:59.160 characters that now just have all big mouth. 00:21:59.259 --> 00:22:01.759 Their teeth are like the size of tombstones. 00:22:02.299 --> 00:22:04.160 It's a real animation choice. And someone put 00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:07.220 it online. It's interesting. The Pixar animators 00:22:07.220 --> 00:22:08.920 that are currently working are the ones that 00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:11.259 were taught by the people that came up with that 00:22:11.259 --> 00:22:14.440 art style. So they've then carried that art style 00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:16.039 forward because that's what they were taught. 00:22:16.579 --> 00:22:20.460 So it's all a bit dis... I don't like it. Something 00:22:20.460 --> 00:22:23.140 doesn't gel right with me over that design, but... 00:22:23.140 --> 00:22:24.779 I don't think I even know what it looks like. 00:22:25.299 --> 00:22:28.039 Did you ever see Turning Red? Yeah, I quite like 00:22:28.039 --> 00:22:30.160 Turning Red. That's the style I'm talking about. 00:22:30.220 --> 00:22:31.920 Big cheeks, big teeth. Yeah, like Wallace and 00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:35.539 Gromit. Yeah. But it's the big teeth I don't 00:22:35.539 --> 00:22:39.000 get. Anyway, that aside, it's a perfectly fine 00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:43.160 film. Not amazing. Disappointed that it isn't 00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:45.859 the standard Pixar, which is full of adult jokes 00:22:45.859 --> 00:22:47.799 that the kids just won't get so the adults can 00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:50.569 enjoy it. Very little to it. It's got the typical 00:22:50.569 --> 00:22:53.690 dark Disney stuff like dead parents and him being 00:22:53.690 --> 00:22:56.809 beaten up brutally by bullies. So it's classic 00:22:56.809 --> 00:23:02.190 Disney. So that was that one. I saw 28 Years 00:23:02.190 --> 00:23:04.690 Later. Yeah, I'm jealous. I would like to see 00:23:04.690 --> 00:23:09.230 it. It's good. There's a zombie that's got a 00:23:09.230 --> 00:23:11.990 penis down to his knees. Nice. He's called an 00:23:11.990 --> 00:23:17.140 alpha. Hence the reason the title of that review 00:23:17.140 --> 00:23:19.960 was hung. I haven't listened to that one because 00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:23.319 I don't want to spoil it. We're not hiding spoilers 00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:25.880 in those. Yeah, 100%. So what you need to know 00:23:25.880 --> 00:23:28.160 is that before Prime, they are 100 % spoiler. 00:23:28.259 --> 00:23:30.059 It's five minutes. You only get five minutes 00:23:30.059 --> 00:23:33.279 of the review and we say the entire story of 00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:35.640 the film and then what we think about it. So 00:23:35.640 --> 00:23:39.220 yeah, it's full of spoilers. It was fine. It 00:23:39.220 --> 00:23:44.470 was okay. Good fun. a bit drab here and there 00:23:44.470 --> 00:23:47.970 didn't feel like anything near the quality of 00:23:47.970 --> 00:23:53.349 the first film uh what i will say very very disappointed 00:23:53.349 --> 00:23:56.789 in one of the choices they made um considering 00:23:56.789 --> 00:23:59.630 other people for once which obviously i don't 00:23:59.630 --> 00:24:02.569 often consider other people but the choice they 00:24:02.569 --> 00:24:04.569 made for it i think it's a bit poor poor show 00:24:04.569 --> 00:24:09.400 um what i'm not a fan of is it's a trilogy Yeah, 00:24:09.420 --> 00:24:11.720 that's surprising. So the next one's January. 00:24:12.299 --> 00:24:15.519 So there's basically five of them. So there'll 00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:18.619 be, yeah, a quintology, or I think you call it 00:24:18.619 --> 00:24:21.700 a saga, don't you? So it'll be a saga, but the 00:24:21.700 --> 00:24:23.880 next three films are part of a trilogy. So you've 00:24:23.880 --> 00:24:27.880 got 28 years later, the next 28 years later, 00:24:27.940 --> 00:24:29.680 and one more after that. Apparently Cillian Murphy 00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:32.759 turns up in one of them. Yeah, I had a feeling 00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:37.000 that was going to happen. I wasn't an amazing 00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:41.539 fan of... 28 weeks later. No, I tried to re -watch 00:24:41.539 --> 00:24:43.799 it the other day and I'm absolutely on board 00:24:43.799 --> 00:24:46.500 with that. I found it very sterile. And again, 00:24:46.539 --> 00:24:49.720 the first one was just so nicely done. Terrifying. 00:24:49.740 --> 00:24:52.000 Because they did it with such low -key equipment, 00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:55.720 it gave it that kind of almost that Blair Witch 00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:57.900 style to it because they needed just to be into 00:24:57.900 --> 00:24:59.539 a zone. Right, it's dead. There's no one here. 00:24:59.619 --> 00:25:01.299 Film, film, film, film, film. Right, people said 00:25:01.299 --> 00:25:02.579 it. Right, we're going to go. Now we're done. 00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:06.529 It gave it that good feeling. 28 weeks later, 00:25:06.769 --> 00:25:08.630 it just felt like you've been given money and 00:25:08.630 --> 00:25:10.089 it's kind of felt like... Now you're making a 00:25:10.089 --> 00:25:13.170 zombie face. Yeah, exactly. And 28 years later, 00:25:13.250 --> 00:25:16.029 to an extent, is that. And then finally saw Superman. 00:25:16.650 --> 00:25:21.910 Yeah? Superman is super. It was so good. How 00:25:21.910 --> 00:25:30.009 big his dick? He's a left liar. Except it's done 00:25:30.009 --> 00:25:32.089 double who was on the right, so... That's how 00:25:32.089 --> 00:25:35.740 you knew. Which side did he tuck it down his 00:25:35.740 --> 00:25:39.680 little red pants? No, really good. So, so good. 00:25:39.700 --> 00:25:41.720 So different to anything that Snyder's done. 00:25:42.299 --> 00:25:46.099 More attuned to the Christopher Reeve era of 00:25:46.099 --> 00:25:50.680 Superman. Oh, so many bitches just crying online 00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:54.039 going, oh, it's not Zack Snyder. Oh, it's not 00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:56.680 Henry Cavill. I'm not going to watch it. Discuss 00:25:56.680 --> 00:25:59.099 it. Just watch it because you know what? It doesn't 00:25:59.099 --> 00:26:02.140 matter. It's a separate universe. You've got 00:26:02.140 --> 00:26:04.440 your stuff. It's not going away. It's not changing 00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:06.960 it. Henry Cavill's film isn't going to disappear 00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:09.700 and never be shown again. This is just a different 00:26:09.700 --> 00:26:13.480 film. And it's so good. I've got questions. So, 00:26:13.579 --> 00:26:16.519 trying not to spoil it, because I do really, 00:26:16.539 --> 00:26:17.839 really want to say, as soon as it comes on TV, 00:26:17.900 --> 00:26:22.079 I'm going to watch it. Are they assuming you 00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:25.079 know all the characters? Yes. So, it's not like 00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:28.190 a... You know how they did Superman Returns? 00:26:28.190 --> 00:26:30.670 No, no, no. It's not like something... It's not 00:26:30.670 --> 00:26:33.289 an origin story. No, not an origin story. It's 00:26:33.289 --> 00:26:35.170 all he's been in Metropolis for three years by 00:26:35.170 --> 00:26:38.509 this point. And it's not what a lot of people 00:26:38.509 --> 00:26:40.730 thought it could be, which is a bit like Suicide 00:26:40.730 --> 00:26:43.730 Squad, where they show 10 seconds or 15 seconds 00:26:43.730 --> 00:26:47.069 of something prior that had happened as kind 00:26:47.069 --> 00:26:49.710 of a flashback. All the characters you see in 00:26:49.710 --> 00:26:52.609 the advert are key parts of the film. And they 00:26:52.609 --> 00:26:55.240 are like... you know who Superman is, come on, 00:26:55.259 --> 00:26:56.740 let's just get on with the Superman story that's 00:26:56.740 --> 00:26:58.400 really cool. Is that basically what they're doing? 00:26:58.660 --> 00:27:02.539 100%. And as I think we've both spoken about 00:27:02.539 --> 00:27:05.500 this before, the trailer is quite hectic. There's 00:27:05.500 --> 00:27:08.460 a lot of characters. Yes, there is. And it doesn't 00:27:08.460 --> 00:27:12.240 feel messy? Not at all. It's very clean, very, 00:27:12.380 --> 00:27:15.859 very well done, very emotional at parts. Lex 00:27:15.859 --> 00:27:20.500 Luthor, I could not imagine a better casting. 00:27:20.880 --> 00:27:23.769 Yeah. Good. Unbelievably good. British actor, 00:27:23.829 --> 00:27:27.029 Nicholas Holt, known for Skins. And Mickey Blue 00:27:27.029 --> 00:27:31.230 Eyes. Mickey Blue Eyes. Oh, I didn't know he 00:27:31.230 --> 00:27:33.509 was in that. But he's been in a load. He was 00:27:33.509 --> 00:27:35.450 a kid, right? That's him as a kid. Oh, possibly. 00:27:35.509 --> 00:27:37.250 He was highest paid actor for this, two million. 00:27:37.789 --> 00:27:43.569 Really? Whereas David Corenswet was 750 ,000, 00:27:43.569 --> 00:27:45.589 same as Lois Lane's character. We just watched 00:27:45.589 --> 00:27:49.190 him in Lex Luthor. We just watched him in Giro 00:27:49.190 --> 00:27:53.200 No. 2. Is that right, Miranda? all I can say 00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:55.640 mate is when you see it you're going to be blown 00:27:55.640 --> 00:27:59.859 away just it embodies what the comic books and 00:27:59.859 --> 00:28:02.559 what people think of Superman whereas I enjoyed 00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:04.819 the Zack Snyder I didn't enjoy the Zack Snyder 00:28:04.819 --> 00:28:06.700 universe I thought a lot of it was utter shite 00:28:06.700 --> 00:28:10.460 but I enjoyed Man of Steel I really enjoyed Man 00:28:10.460 --> 00:28:11.859 of Steel I thought it was a really good action 00:28:11.859 --> 00:28:15.880 film this isn't an action film it's an action 00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:20.000 film it's a thriller it's Actually, you know 00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:21.319 what? It doesn't even have that much romance 00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:23.819 in it. There is a couple of moments in it, but 00:28:23.819 --> 00:28:28.099 actually, it just sticks with it being a traditional 00:28:28.099 --> 00:28:30.960 superhero movie. Yeah, well, the thing about 00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:33.000 the romance, it doesn't need to have Lois Lane 00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:35.039 falling out a fucking building. It doesn't need 00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:36.940 to have her as being this damsel in distress. 00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:39.940 She can just be a human being. Exactly, and that's 00:28:39.940 --> 00:28:43.079 how they've got her in this. Yeah. She's not 00:28:43.079 --> 00:28:45.099 having to be saved all the bloody time. She's 00:28:45.099 --> 00:28:46.740 not running around screaming her head off like 00:28:46.740 --> 00:28:49.240 an Indiana Jones film. I mean, I love Indiana 00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:52.519 Jones films, but you know, the first three, as 00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:55.240 good as they are, any female character in it 00:28:55.240 --> 00:28:58.059 is just running around screaming because that's 00:28:58.059 --> 00:28:59.579 what they thought women are meant to do. The 00:28:59.579 --> 00:29:01.359 woman in Temple of Doom. Oh my God, no. It's 00:29:01.359 --> 00:29:05.019 really difficult. It's just, why have you done 00:29:05.019 --> 00:29:09.039 that? There's no need for it. There's none of 00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:12.019 that in this. All the bollocks about it being 00:29:12.019 --> 00:29:14.660 woke. Sorry, I don't know where that's come from, 00:29:14.759 --> 00:29:17.019 but it's phenomenal. Yeah, because I saw all 00:29:17.019 --> 00:29:19.140 that, and then I asked you about it, and you're 00:29:19.140 --> 00:29:22.220 like, what? It's basically because James Gunn 00:29:22.220 --> 00:29:24.059 called him an immigrant. He said Superman's an 00:29:24.059 --> 00:29:26.160 immigrant. Well, he kind of is, isn't he? Well, 00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:29.680 he is. He's absolutely. 100 % he is. I guess 00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:32.339 he's an illegal one, too. Technically, yes. He 00:29:32.339 --> 00:29:35.680 hasn't got any papers. But, no, it's phenomenal. 00:29:35.960 --> 00:29:40.309 Really, really, really solid. And without wanting 00:29:40.309 --> 00:29:42.529 to spoil it, as I say, you've just got to see 00:29:42.529 --> 00:29:46.569 it. But it's the first time I felt like Superman 00:29:46.569 --> 00:29:51.049 is... What's the best? Someone explained it really 00:29:51.049 --> 00:29:53.769 well. They said Zack Snyder, basically. And I 00:29:53.769 --> 00:29:56.609 don't know if it's true. He did kind of regret 00:29:56.609 --> 00:30:01.430 it. Apparently he did. That just needs clarification. 00:30:02.509 --> 00:30:04.589 But he basically made Henry Cavill's Superman 00:30:04.589 --> 00:30:09.849 indestructible. Yeah. It's just... And that straightaway 00:30:09.849 --> 00:30:13.009 just removes the kind of any care you have about 00:30:13.009 --> 00:30:15.069 the film because you know he's always going to 00:30:15.069 --> 00:30:18.690 win. Okay, it's a Superman film. You know Superman 00:30:18.690 --> 00:30:24.450 is going to win. Yeah. You don't in this. That's 00:30:24.450 --> 00:30:27.809 the word I'm looking for. Not tension. Something 00:30:27.809 --> 00:30:31.789 else. So I saw a video of a particular actor 00:30:31.789 --> 00:30:36.279 saying how they were linked to a character. For 00:30:36.279 --> 00:30:38.200 a future one of James Gunn's films. And James 00:30:38.200 --> 00:30:40.960 Gunn's come out on. Oh, yes. Saying it's not 00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:42.700 true. It's not true. No, I know it's not true. 00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:46.319 But him in leather and a mask. Oh, Alan Richardson. 00:30:48.460 --> 00:30:52.329 And even in the interview, he was like. I don't 00:30:52.329 --> 00:30:53.430 know where this has come from. Have you seen 00:30:53.430 --> 00:30:55.390 the interview? I've not seen the interview, but 00:30:55.390 --> 00:30:58.450 all I know is Jack Richard leather. Yes, exactly. 00:30:58.829 --> 00:31:01.390 Yeah, we'll be done. Keep ourselves under the 00:31:01.390 --> 00:31:04.750 table. Save ourselves embarrassment. Why is the 00:31:04.750 --> 00:31:07.569 table lifting? It's a solid oak table. It's coming 00:31:07.569 --> 00:31:09.910 off the ground. Maybe it's giant from gladiators. 00:31:11.310 --> 00:31:13.009 Well, he literally says, I don't know where this 00:31:13.009 --> 00:31:14.549 comes from, James Gunn has come out and said 00:31:14.549 --> 00:31:16.869 it's not happening. You know, I haven't been 00:31:16.869 --> 00:31:19.190 linked in any way to it. It's just come out online 00:31:19.190 --> 00:31:21.410 that I am. So he's Alan Richardson as Batman. 00:31:21.849 --> 00:31:24.150 Yes. And then he does the Batman voice. And he 00:31:24.150 --> 00:31:27.349 says, I 100 % would play this and I would do 00:31:27.349 --> 00:31:29.589 it for free. Yeah, and James Gunn has said he 00:31:29.589 --> 00:31:31.789 wants to use him in something, but he's just 00:31:31.789 --> 00:31:35.569 alluded to something. I think he could be Batman. 00:31:35.890 --> 00:31:38.569 I think he could do. I mean, I love Robert Pattinson 00:31:38.569 --> 00:31:41.259 as Batman. I think it's... He is brilliant in 00:31:41.259 --> 00:31:42.940 Batman. I'm disappointed that's not being carried 00:31:42.940 --> 00:31:47.000 on. Oh, I think they can just keep doing a separate 00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:48.740 thing. I think they can just do a separate thing. 00:31:48.740 --> 00:31:53.940 So James Gunn is vice president of DC now. Right. 00:31:54.140 --> 00:31:58.920 And basically this is a DC Universe reboot. So 00:31:58.920 --> 00:32:02.019 Penguin as well. The series that just got like 00:32:02.019 --> 00:32:05.099 an Emmy or something. Not sure. All I know is 00:32:05.099 --> 00:32:08.960 basically Superman is the start. So I don't think 00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:10.220 we're going to get another Robert Pattinson. 00:32:10.519 --> 00:32:14.980 Oh, damn, damn. Which is a shame, but at the 00:32:14.980 --> 00:32:16.819 same time, does it mean we're going to finally 00:32:16.819 --> 00:32:20.480 get a Batman that's not an origin story? Yeah, 00:32:20.500 --> 00:32:23.259 he doesn't need one. Everyone knows, other than 00:32:23.259 --> 00:32:27.759 our kids, don't know the origin of Batman. My 00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:33.440 God, Spidey and Friends is a Marvel film. It's 00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:34.819 a Marvel series. Can you imagine if that was 00:32:34.819 --> 00:32:37.460 a DC series? Spidey and Friends. Come on over, 00:32:37.539 --> 00:32:40.720 Batman. My mum's making us food. I wish I had 00:32:40.720 --> 00:32:43.359 a mum. Yeah, well, to be fair, Spider -Man doesn't 00:32:43.359 --> 00:32:45.839 either. That's true. He lives with his aunt. 00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:50.559 He's got an aunt. Yeah, and a dead uncle. They 00:32:50.559 --> 00:32:53.980 don't touch on that in Spidey and Friends. That's 00:32:53.980 --> 00:32:59.599 left out in Spidey and Friends. And by the way, 00:32:59.660 --> 00:33:01.640 they've gender swapped everyone, which is really 00:33:01.640 --> 00:33:03.359 confusing for poor T when we're going around 00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:06.259 the Marvel universe. And like, why is Doc Ock 00:33:06.259 --> 00:33:08.359 a man? It's like, well, when Daddy used to watch 00:33:08.359 --> 00:33:10.880 it, Doc Ock was a man. It's like, oh, Electro 00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.279 was also a man. Yes. Yeah, Venom was also a man. 00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:22.079 Everybody was a man. Including Gwen. Yeah, Gwen 00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:26.470 was a man. No, that would be the new one. Dangerous. 00:33:26.470 --> 00:33:29.109 Are you finished? Oh, yeah. I think we're just 00:33:29.109 --> 00:33:31.069 finished. Full stop, aren't we? Yeah, maybe. 00:33:31.869 --> 00:33:34.950 Insert new non -Star Trek related transition 00:33:34.950 --> 00:33:40.170 effect here. We're back. After doing stuff off 00:33:40.170 --> 00:33:46.190 air. we're just lowering the table back down 00:33:46.190 --> 00:33:47.890 now we've both calmed down I thought you were 00:33:47.890 --> 00:33:52.269 going to say we're lowering the tone mate it 00:33:52.269 --> 00:33:55.329 can't get any lower it can give me a chance I've 00:33:55.329 --> 00:33:57.430 got to talk about what I've been doing so I've 00:33:57.430 --> 00:34:00.049 been on holiday you have we're not going to talk 00:34:00.049 --> 00:34:01.869 about everything about it we're just going to 00:34:01.869 --> 00:34:05.529 talk about the sci -fi related stuff and the 00:34:05.529 --> 00:34:06.970 other stuff we're going to talk about on the 00:34:06.970 --> 00:34:10.269 variety show next week when this comes out so 00:34:12.159 --> 00:34:15.900 Yeah, I went to Florida, took tea around all 00:34:15.900 --> 00:34:20.860 the theme parks and stuff. Where am I going to 00:34:20.860 --> 00:34:23.539 start? Aeroplane. Let's start on the aeroplane. 00:34:23.739 --> 00:34:26.860 Great film, underutilised comedy, needs to be 00:34:26.860 --> 00:34:30.579 shown, does not need to be remade. No, it doesn't 00:34:30.579 --> 00:34:33.360 need to be remade, but would they have, what's 00:34:33.360 --> 00:34:35.239 his name on that too? Oh, Liam Neeson would turn 00:34:35.239 --> 00:34:37.280 up in that one, yeah. Oh, I've booked that as 00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:39.219 well. Oh, have you? Yeah, 1st of August. Oh, 00:34:39.219 --> 00:34:41.429 I need to see that with you. Oh, well, first 00:34:41.429 --> 00:34:42.670 of all, because I'll tell you what seat number 00:34:42.670 --> 00:34:45.190 I'm on. Okay, right. Yeah, I really want to watch 00:34:45.190 --> 00:34:49.230 that. So, yeah, we went with Virgin. So on the 00:34:49.230 --> 00:34:50.409 Virgin's flight, they've got their entertainment 00:34:50.409 --> 00:34:53.210 system. They had loads of stuff on there. Yeah, 00:34:53.210 --> 00:34:55.289 you sent me the WhatsApp clip using your free 00:34:55.289 --> 00:34:57.409 Wi -Fi from your watching an advert. I watched 00:34:57.409 --> 00:34:59.769 an advert which gave me like five minutes of 00:34:59.769 --> 00:35:03.320 free Wi -Fi. So yeah, you watch a 30 second advert. 00:35:03.559 --> 00:35:05.179 So basically you just put it on mute, put it 00:35:05.179 --> 00:35:06.860 to the side of me, do something else for 30 seconds, 00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:08.340 pick it up and go, hey, free Wi -Fi for five 00:35:08.340 --> 00:35:10.559 minutes. Couldn't do that for T. I had to pay 00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:15.300 for his on the tablet. Anyway, loads of stuff 00:35:15.300 --> 00:35:17.880 on there. Loads of series, loads of films. I 00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:20.559 did watch, it took me the entire flight to watch 00:35:20.559 --> 00:35:24.500 one film, by the way. But I just want to comment 00:35:24.500 --> 00:35:27.320 on, like, they had loads of series on there. 00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:29.440 And I was like, I wanted to watch Yellowstone. 00:35:30.089 --> 00:35:31.550 Yeah. Everyone goes on about it because Miranda 00:35:31.550 --> 00:35:33.050 wasn't that interesting. We tried to watch a 00:35:33.050 --> 00:35:34.570 little bit of the first episode and she wasn't 00:35:34.570 --> 00:35:36.630 really bothered. So I was like, oh, they've got 00:35:36.630 --> 00:35:38.769 Yellowstone on it. I'll go watch it. Three episodes 00:35:38.769 --> 00:35:42.550 of season five. Thanks, Virgin. Yeah, thanks. 00:35:43.630 --> 00:35:46.090 Just expect all of us to have ever seen Yellowstone 00:35:46.090 --> 00:35:48.230 and then only three episodes of it too. It's 00:35:48.230 --> 00:35:49.409 like, well, that's not going to get you. These 00:35:49.409 --> 00:35:51.449 three episodes have cowboys in it. I really think 00:35:51.449 --> 00:35:53.349 like if you're going to put a series on. You 00:35:53.349 --> 00:35:55.230 need to put all of them. Series one. All of them 00:35:55.230 --> 00:35:58.710 or series one. Not. Three random episodes. I 00:35:58.710 --> 00:36:00.570 don't think it was even one, two and three in 00:36:00.570 --> 00:36:04.030 season five. Three random episodes of a mid -season 00:36:04.030 --> 00:36:06.030 or maybe five to the latest season. I have not 00:36:06.030 --> 00:36:09.510 got a clue. I haven't seen it. So I have no idea. 00:36:09.630 --> 00:36:11.829 I still haven't seen it. I would have done and 00:36:11.829 --> 00:36:13.210 I would have been able to talk about it. So it's 00:36:13.210 --> 00:36:16.030 their fault. The film I did watch was Better 00:36:16.030 --> 00:36:19.429 Man. So that's the Robin Williams film with him 00:36:19.429 --> 00:36:21.829 as a monkey. Oh, right. Okay. You watched it? 00:36:22.250 --> 00:36:26.059 Not yet. I really want to. I... After we ripped 00:36:26.059 --> 00:36:29.440 the piss out of it, going, oh my God. All I've 00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:31.980 heard is glowing reports about it. Oh, it's so 00:36:31.980 --> 00:36:35.440 good. So, it's quite long. I think it was like 00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:37.340 two and a bit hours or two and a half hours. 00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:42.280 Now, the first half an hour. Peppy! origin story 00:36:42.280 --> 00:36:45.559 i'm a kid i'm gonna be a superstar oh my dad's 00:36:45.559 --> 00:36:50.079 not dead but he has left me you know now i'm 00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:52.380 a pop star you're sure it's not disney yeah that's 00:36:52.380 --> 00:36:54.619 why it's a bit disney now a pop star now i'm 00:36:54.619 --> 00:36:56.599 in suspenders great you all know the story of 00:36:56.599 --> 00:37:00.900 take that then it becomes train spotting it's 00:37:00.900 --> 00:37:06.079 just like drugs sex he hates everyone hates him 00:37:06.079 --> 00:37:11.360 he hates everybody it's just A huge, massive 00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:14.800 downward spiral. Did it go into his agoraphobia 00:37:14.800 --> 00:37:17.920 at all? His what? Agoraphobia, where he refused 00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:21.360 to leave the house. Kind of. Because he basically 00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:23.559 became afraid he was going to be abducted and 00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:28.920 UFO. He went full foil hat. There is a bit, which 00:37:28.920 --> 00:37:31.619 didn't make sense to me. Where right near the 00:37:31.619 --> 00:37:34.420 end, he's like lying on a lido on a pond in his 00:37:34.420 --> 00:37:38.000 massive mansion's garden. And I think there's 00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:40.579 like a UFO coming down to abduct him. But it's 00:37:40.579 --> 00:37:42.119 actually like the headlights of a car or something. 00:37:42.199 --> 00:37:44.539 Yeah. So from what I understand of his history, 00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:47.619 basically before he had his kid, he wouldn't 00:37:47.619 --> 00:37:50.179 leave the house. He was afraid everyone was out 00:37:50.179 --> 00:37:52.300 to get him. Conspiracies, aliens were going to 00:37:52.300 --> 00:37:56.579 get him. And until he had the kid and then that 00:37:56.579 --> 00:37:59.639 helped him get past it. Yeah. That's horrible, 00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:02.320 horrible ending of his. He had some tough things 00:38:02.320 --> 00:38:06.059 kind of happen to him that were out of his control. 00:38:06.139 --> 00:38:10.579 The industry really fucked with him and his first 00:38:10.579 --> 00:38:14.780 kind of long -term relationship with Nicole Appleby. 00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:17.480 Not Kidman, yeah, sorry. The one who was in that 00:38:17.480 --> 00:38:19.199 girl, Appleton. Yeah, the one who was in the 00:38:19.199 --> 00:38:23.000 girl band. You know, her manager. I don't know 00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:26.240 how much of this is true, I have no idea. was 00:38:26.240 --> 00:38:29.239 very manipulative and it destroyed them. Well, 00:38:29.239 --> 00:38:32.460 I would argue that the world music industry, 00:38:32.619 --> 00:38:35.239 not just the UK music industry, is an industry 00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:37.460 that needs to be kind of put under the spotlight 00:38:37.460 --> 00:38:40.320 and just fixed full stop because everything from 00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:42.920 bloody Taylor Swift through to Robbie Williams 00:38:42.920 --> 00:38:46.400 through to anybody, you don't hear anything positive. 00:38:46.780 --> 00:38:51.079 Yeah, but this is definitely a... If you have 00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:53.400 stocks in cocaine, they're going to go down. 00:38:53.659 --> 00:38:56.360 it's not it's not uh it's not a good selling 00:38:56.360 --> 00:39:01.539 point for any kind of drugs no fine so it was 00:39:01.539 --> 00:39:03.500 difficult because obviously t was sat next to 00:39:03.500 --> 00:39:05.039 me i was like every now and again i'm pausing 00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:06.760 it that's why it took me so long to watch this 00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:08.619 film if he showed any interest towards the screen 00:39:08.619 --> 00:39:11.940 i had to stop it and but the cgi on the monkey 00:39:11.940 --> 00:39:15.820 absolutely incredible you basically think the 00:39:15.820 --> 00:39:18.139 monkey's there you know it's not real because 00:39:18.139 --> 00:39:22.320 you know real but I watched a thing that Corridor 00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:24.500 Crew did, a kind of breakdown of a lot of it. 00:39:24.679 --> 00:39:27.840 Absolutely amazing. Like when you go into detail. 00:39:28.260 --> 00:39:32.000 And also, it's not him singing any of the songs. 00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:35.860 It's somebody else who can do his voice, who 00:39:35.860 --> 00:39:39.280 they found online on TikTok or something, who 00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:43.940 sings all the new versions of his songs. So all 00:39:43.940 --> 00:39:45.679 the songs that aren't just straight up rips. 00:39:46.039 --> 00:39:48.900 of his songs, they're all sung by this other 00:39:48.900 --> 00:39:51.340 guy. And you would never know. As somebody like 00:39:51.340 --> 00:39:53.260 me who is a Robbie Williams fan, I've seen him 00:39:53.260 --> 00:39:56.940 live, you would never, ever, ever know. So I'm 00:39:56.940 --> 00:39:59.340 assuming, have they done that because Williams' 00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:02.840 voice has aged and therefore it wouldn't have 00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:06.019 sounded right to have young monkey on screen 00:40:06.019 --> 00:40:09.380 but old Williams' voice coming out of it? I absolutely 00:40:09.380 --> 00:40:13.639 think that's probably the case. And you don't 00:40:13.639 --> 00:40:16.860 know until you watch the credits. It's not like 00:40:16.860 --> 00:40:19.000 it's ever explained at any point in time. I never 00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:21.960 even heard it had come out. That would have been 00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:24.539 an interesting thing to have seen online. Well, 00:40:24.539 --> 00:40:26.539 the guy was all over the place after the film 00:40:26.539 --> 00:40:29.340 came out. Particularly TikTok. He blew up on 00:40:29.340 --> 00:40:32.800 TikTok. I'd have to send you some. Doing a disservice 00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:36.159 by having written his name down. But it's unbelievable. 00:40:36.519 --> 00:40:40.400 Close your eyes. That's his pen. Close your eyes 00:40:40.400 --> 00:40:43.309 and you would never ever know. Oh, that's awesome. 00:40:43.510 --> 00:40:47.869 I've got a soft spot for old Robbie. I've got 00:40:47.869 --> 00:40:55.050 something else. There goes the table again. So 00:40:55.050 --> 00:40:57.210 what else happened? So we went to the new Universal. 00:40:57.449 --> 00:40:59.210 I'm going to kind of jump around. No, that's 00:40:59.210 --> 00:41:01.449 fine. You just go for it. We went to the new 00:41:01.449 --> 00:41:05.590 Universal park called Epic and there is a Super 00:41:05.590 --> 00:41:08.449 Mario Land there like the one in Japan. Oh, it's 00:41:08.449 --> 00:41:10.570 so bloody cool. Come on, let's have your best 00:41:10.570 --> 00:41:13.429 Mario. It's -a -me -a -Mario. It's -a -me -a 00:41:13.429 --> 00:41:16.349 -Mario. It's -a -me -a -Mario. I think that's 00:41:16.349 --> 00:41:20.489 pretty good. Oh, they can judge. Can you do Yoshi? 00:41:21.449 --> 00:41:25.530 No. And he's taking a shit in the seat. That's 00:41:25.530 --> 00:41:27.110 what he does when he jumps. He goes, he, he. 00:41:29.949 --> 00:41:32.510 What else can I do? I can't do any others. No, 00:41:32.550 --> 00:41:37.869 that's it. Yeah, so literally. It's Mario Land. 00:41:38.369 --> 00:41:42.030 Whatever you think Mario Land is in your imagination, 00:41:42.110 --> 00:41:45.150 that is exactly what it is. But with less hookers 00:41:45.150 --> 00:41:47.250 and strippers. Because I know that's what you 00:41:47.250 --> 00:41:49.579 would be imagining Mario Land. Well, I'm imagining 00:41:49.579 --> 00:41:53.219 the 90s film Mario Land. Yeah, it's not that. 00:41:53.420 --> 00:41:56.059 That would have been a completely different one. 00:41:56.179 --> 00:41:57.599 Yeah, just a slug. That would be what we get 00:41:57.599 --> 00:41:59.400 in bed for. That is basically Demolition Man. 00:41:59.539 --> 00:42:01.659 I think they use the same sets because it's basically 00:42:01.659 --> 00:42:06.599 underground to Demolition Man, isn't it? Yeah, 00:42:06.719 --> 00:42:10.420 so what you get, right? So if you've got the, 00:42:10.500 --> 00:42:12.480 all of them have apps now, Disney and Universal. 00:42:12.639 --> 00:42:14.679 They've all got apps on your phone for maps and 00:42:14.679 --> 00:42:17.889 really good up -to -date. wait times for rides 00:42:17.889 --> 00:42:20.389 which is actually really bloody helpful and cool 00:42:20.389 --> 00:42:24.849 uh nfc everywhere god msc good job nfc doesn't 00:42:24.849 --> 00:42:26.230 give you cancer if everyone's gonna be riddled 00:42:26.230 --> 00:42:31.369 with it and you you when you go to the mario 00:42:31.369 --> 00:42:32.690 bit there's like a thing in the app that you 00:42:32.690 --> 00:42:35.570 press and it activates the super mario game mode 00:42:35.570 --> 00:42:38.489 in the app and you link it to a watch of course 00:42:38.489 --> 00:42:41.050 you have to buy the watch for 40 of course you 00:42:41.050 --> 00:42:43.110 do they've got different colors at least and 00:42:43.110 --> 00:42:46.179 he's got the mario one And what it then does 00:42:46.179 --> 00:42:49.440 is it links to everything in Mario Land. So there's 00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:51.159 question mark blocks. You go up to them, you 00:42:51.159 --> 00:42:54.699 punch them. Ding, ding, coin noises. So you haven't 00:42:54.699 --> 00:42:56.820 got to have the watch to make it do stuff. But 00:42:56.820 --> 00:42:58.980 if you want to collect the coins to add to your 00:42:58.980 --> 00:43:02.039 app, you can. And there's loads of stuff to do. 00:43:02.079 --> 00:43:03.579 Every time you're going to ride, you... put your 00:43:03.579 --> 00:43:05.139 watch on it, only in the Mario bit, put your 00:43:05.139 --> 00:43:07.340 watch on it, and then you get stickers. There's 00:43:07.340 --> 00:43:10.739 like 300 or 400 stickers to collect by doing 00:43:10.739 --> 00:43:13.659 loads of things. So when you're in the Donkey 00:43:13.659 --> 00:43:16.960 Kong queue, there's this bit where there's two 00:43:16.960 --> 00:43:20.320 statues at either end, and you have one person 00:43:20.320 --> 00:43:22.119 at one end has to activate it, while one person 00:43:22.119 --> 00:43:23.619 at the other end of the queue has to activate 00:43:23.619 --> 00:43:26.329 it. Oh, it's Helldivers. Yeah, basically. You've 00:43:26.329 --> 00:43:27.829 got to go up, down, right, left, right, right, 00:43:27.849 --> 00:43:29.650 up, down, and then you've got to turn the dish. 00:43:29.710 --> 00:43:31.949 No. You both have to activate at the same time. 00:43:31.989 --> 00:43:33.710 So you'll hear it, you'll do it, and you hear 00:43:33.710 --> 00:43:35.489 bling, bling, and the whole ceiling goes all 00:43:35.489 --> 00:43:37.849 sparkly. And if someone does the other end, then 00:43:37.849 --> 00:43:39.550 the sparkles can join and turn into a giant banana. 00:43:39.889 --> 00:43:42.909 It's brilliant. Nice. So he got that, which was 00:43:42.909 --> 00:43:46.190 like, there's like five or six super kind of 00:43:46.190 --> 00:43:47.909 stickers that you can get. That golden banana 00:43:47.909 --> 00:43:49.309 was one of them. So there's one for each bit, 00:43:49.349 --> 00:43:51.989 like one Donkey Kong, one Toadstool, one Mario 00:43:51.989 --> 00:43:53.429 one, one Bowser one, and then one other one. 00:43:55.599 --> 00:43:59.480 I'll try and keep close to the mic. And you, 00:43:59.679 --> 00:44:01.739 loads of stuff like that around and you get points. 00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:03.679 And I said, stickers by doing loads of things, 00:44:03.760 --> 00:44:05.260 collect a certain amount of coins, you get stickers. 00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:07.559 And then as I was at Hill things, I found a little 00:44:07.559 --> 00:44:09.039 shelf hidden away in the corner with loads of 00:44:09.039 --> 00:44:11.780 Pikmin on it, which was very cute. Got a photo 00:44:11.780 --> 00:44:16.019 of it. Yeah. And then the big thing is you can 00:44:16.019 --> 00:44:20.849 get keys. So the first time we went. It was only 00:44:20.849 --> 00:44:22.989 the second day. Everyone was jet lagged. We only 00:44:22.989 --> 00:44:26.469 went on two rides the entire day from 10 o 'clock 00:44:26.469 --> 00:44:28.389 the park opens to, I think we stayed to like 00:44:28.389 --> 00:44:31.690 six. We went on two rides. We waited for Mario 00:44:31.690 --> 00:44:35.090 Kart ride for two and a half hours. So when we 00:44:35.090 --> 00:44:37.449 went back again, like right near the end, it 00:44:37.449 --> 00:44:39.510 was much better because we had like tickets that 00:44:39.510 --> 00:44:42.110 meant we could skip the queue. you're not really 00:44:42.110 --> 00:44:44.369 skipping the queue. It's kind of like you just 00:44:44.369 --> 00:44:47.090 miss a bit. Yeah. So what I heard one of the 00:44:47.090 --> 00:44:49.289 staff said, basically, whatever you see the standard 00:44:49.289 --> 00:44:52.030 queue time as, the queue skip is half. Oh, okay. 00:44:52.050 --> 00:44:54.409 Well, that's not too bad. An hour is half an 00:44:54.409 --> 00:44:56.550 hour, two hours is one hour. And it all felt 00:44:56.550 --> 00:44:57.969 better. So the second time we went, we went on 00:44:57.969 --> 00:44:59.590 every single ride we could possibly want to go 00:44:59.590 --> 00:45:02.710 on. But you can only do it once per ride. Which 00:45:02.710 --> 00:45:05.510 I think is fair. Which I think is fair. But the 00:45:05.510 --> 00:45:08.010 first time we went, I kind of noticed that you 00:45:08.010 --> 00:45:10.360 could do the queue, like we went and asked. to 00:45:10.360 --> 00:45:12.579 get why can't we go into this special room you 00:45:12.579 --> 00:45:13.820 have to get keys and i noticed there's a few 00:45:13.820 --> 00:45:15.760 things about i didn't think i didn't think he 00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:18.480 noticed but he did so when we went the second 00:45:18.480 --> 00:45:20.699 time we'd finished everything and it was kind 00:45:20.699 --> 00:45:22.699 of like i think it was like eight o 'clock park 00:45:22.699 --> 00:45:24.820 closes at or maybe just before eight park closes 00:45:24.820 --> 00:45:27.019 at nine and he's like can we go back to mario 00:45:27.019 --> 00:45:28.440 land so we went back to mario land and there 00:45:28.440 --> 00:45:30.420 was barely any people around well not enough 00:45:30.420 --> 00:45:33.659 to be annoying so there's no cues for any of 00:45:33.659 --> 00:45:36.500 the key games and he was like i want to get all 00:45:36.500 --> 00:45:39.619 the keys so he did know So we went around to 00:45:39.619 --> 00:45:42.079 these special games where you get keys. Like 00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:46.199 there's one where you'd have to press down on 00:45:46.199 --> 00:45:48.360 these clocks and you've got to do them all. And 00:45:48.360 --> 00:45:49.619 if you do it in a certain amount of time, then 00:45:49.619 --> 00:45:52.199 you get a key or one where a green shell is going 00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:53.699 backwards and forwards through a pipe and you've 00:45:53.699 --> 00:45:55.599 got to hit the power block just at the right 00:45:55.599 --> 00:45:57.420 time. So the green shell goes up out the pipe 00:45:57.420 --> 00:46:00.699 to hit a monster. And then there's another one. 00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:03.780 There's like a hidden game. where you hit a block 00:46:03.780 --> 00:46:05.559 and then the whole wall turns into a game and 00:46:05.559 --> 00:46:07.840 you hit the wall with your hands to kill the 00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:09.840 Koopas and the Goombas and stuff and collect 00:46:09.840 --> 00:46:12.099 coins and that's a key there. And then there's 00:46:12.099 --> 00:46:13.960 another one that all three of us did together 00:46:13.960 --> 00:46:16.719 where you walk through this cave and then you 00:46:16.719 --> 00:46:19.239 get shrunk to Baby Mario and then everything 00:46:19.239 --> 00:46:21.260 in the next room is massive so you think you're 00:46:21.260 --> 00:46:23.039 Baby Mario. Oh, that's so cool. And they have 00:46:23.039 --> 00:46:26.000 a giant Bob -omb there with a screen, with a 00:46:26.000 --> 00:46:29.280 big touch screen and you have to get all the 00:46:29.280 --> 00:46:33.099 puzzle pieces for a key coin. and build it. So 00:46:33.099 --> 00:46:34.639 you've got to run around the room and tap the 00:46:34.639 --> 00:46:36.699 wall at the certain bits and it collects them. 00:46:36.840 --> 00:46:38.519 And then you've got to build it before the bomb 00:46:38.519 --> 00:46:40.420 goes off. And that's where you get a key. So 00:46:40.420 --> 00:46:42.619 we managed to get four keys. We only did three 00:46:42.619 --> 00:46:43.940 games, so we're not entirely sure where we ended 00:46:43.940 --> 00:46:47.179 up with four. Spent the three keys. And then 00:46:47.179 --> 00:46:50.260 you go into another bit where it's basically 00:46:50.260 --> 00:46:54.500 a huge like IMAX screen, but not as tall. Ten 00:46:54.500 --> 00:46:56.460 of you stood in front of it. You've got a spot 00:46:56.460 --> 00:46:58.639 to stand on. And then... Your shadow is like 00:46:58.639 --> 00:47:00.360 projected on the screen. So it's like a shadow 00:47:00.360 --> 00:47:04.980 version of you, like Peter Pan. And loads of 00:47:04.980 --> 00:47:07.539 stuff starts happening. So if you jump, you can 00:47:07.539 --> 00:47:09.679 jump over stuff. You can punch in the air. You 00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:11.739 can punch the Koopas and the Goombas. And then 00:47:11.739 --> 00:47:14.059 you can collect coins. And then you can get a 00:47:14.059 --> 00:47:15.840 fire flower. And then if you throw your arms 00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:18.619 around, it shoots the fire. And then Bowser Jr. 00:47:18.860 --> 00:47:20.559 comes on that weird thing he flies around on. 00:47:20.619 --> 00:47:23.239 And all of you, 10 of you are attacking it. And 00:47:23.239 --> 00:47:25.460 the idea is, so you all individually get coins. 00:47:26.679 --> 00:47:28.440 And so you're kind of against each other, but 00:47:28.440 --> 00:47:29.719 at the same time, it then collects all your coins 00:47:29.719 --> 00:47:31.760 together and you have to get over a certain amount 00:47:31.760 --> 00:47:34.179 to beat Bowser Jr. And then if you do beat Bowser 00:47:34.179 --> 00:47:37.699 Jr., it does a little bit thing extra and you 00:47:37.699 --> 00:47:39.719 get, I think you get the golden mushroom and 00:47:39.719 --> 00:47:41.929 then you get the golden mushroom sticker. and 00:47:41.929 --> 00:47:43.949 then a special Bowser Jr. sticker in your thing. 00:47:44.250 --> 00:47:45.949 That's very cool. And it's got a leaderboard, 00:47:46.090 --> 00:47:48.409 so if you chose the Mario bracelet, you're on 00:47:48.409 --> 00:47:50.949 Team Mario. So then every single person that's 00:47:50.949 --> 00:47:52.929 been playing who's on Team Mario has a score. 00:47:52.929 --> 00:47:54.570 Accumulates for Mario, yeah. And then there's 00:47:54.570 --> 00:47:56.929 stickers for being in the top 10, in the top 00:47:56.929 --> 00:48:01.489 100 on your team. Somehow, we've got the top 00:48:01.489 --> 00:48:04.909 10 sticker for the day at some point. But I think 00:48:04.909 --> 00:48:08.969 it's because when it's so early, people aren't... 00:48:09.239 --> 00:48:11.619 really doing that they're trying to go to queues 00:48:11.619 --> 00:48:14.179 no of course because we'd we knew we had the 00:48:14.179 --> 00:48:16.739 key card thing and we went straight to donkey 00:48:16.739 --> 00:48:19.539 kong bit because that um we weren't allowed to 00:48:19.539 --> 00:48:21.579 use our fast pass we went to that and there was 00:48:21.579 --> 00:48:22.739 those things and he was getting loads of coin 00:48:22.739 --> 00:48:26.679 stuff but also this is cheeky so anyone that's 00:48:26.679 --> 00:48:30.539 going to go to universal epic listen up so there's 00:48:30.539 --> 00:48:33.280 a really cool bit where you can wait at the start 00:48:33.280 --> 00:48:38.420 and you go through a green pipe Right. And it's 00:48:38.420 --> 00:48:40.579 an escalator. And you get the dun -dun -dun, 00:48:40.599 --> 00:48:42.280 you know, the weird noise that the pipe makes 00:48:42.280 --> 00:48:44.360 in Mario. And it's brilliant. And when you come 00:48:44.360 --> 00:48:46.119 out the top, you end up in Peach's Castle and 00:48:46.119 --> 00:48:49.179 you step out and you can see all of Mario's world 00:48:49.179 --> 00:48:51.219 in front of you. And it's a really cool, fun 00:48:51.219 --> 00:48:54.380 experience. But there's a massive queue because 00:48:54.380 --> 00:48:56.139 it doesn't open until 10 unless you have early 00:48:56.139 --> 00:49:00.400 access. So they have like a waiting area. Not 00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:02.860 really a queue, but it's a bit where they say, 00:49:02.940 --> 00:49:05.880 wait here if you want to come straight into Mario. 00:49:06.449 --> 00:49:08.469 gotcha kind of thing so we did that the first 00:49:08.469 --> 00:49:10.489 time which then meant it was a few minutes before 00:49:10.489 --> 00:49:15.309 we actually got in and i heard somebody say one 00:49:15.309 --> 00:49:18.389 of the staff saying to somebody else because 00:49:18.389 --> 00:49:20.769 there's other entrances to mario that aren't 00:49:20.769 --> 00:49:23.489 cool they're just exits on the lower levels and 00:49:23.489 --> 00:49:25.030 they go well they open these doors at the exact 00:49:25.030 --> 00:49:27.750 same time but they don't let you hang around 00:49:27.750 --> 00:49:32.130 so we the second time we went we hung around 00:49:32.130 --> 00:49:35.010 the little area where that door was and then 00:49:35.010 --> 00:49:37.750 she let us in this woman nearly 10 minutes early 00:49:37.750 --> 00:49:40.429 and we just walked through so everyone else was 00:49:40.429 --> 00:49:43.230 still waiting to go up the escalator thing to 00:49:43.230 --> 00:49:45.070 have that experience but when we did that first 00:49:45.070 --> 00:49:47.409 time it's so rammed and squashed together you 00:49:47.409 --> 00:49:49.750 can't really enjoy the experience because everyone's 00:49:49.750 --> 00:49:52.250 everyone's there for their instagram going oh 00:49:52.250 --> 00:49:54.730 yeah look at me whereas we just went down the 00:49:54.730 --> 00:49:56.110 side bit went straight to donkey kong and we're 00:49:56.110 --> 00:49:57.769 in the queue now we're in the queue for bloody 00:49:57.769 --> 00:50:00.070 ages because the ride kept breaking And we didn't 00:50:00.070 --> 00:50:01.469 want to get out of the queue. And we're like, 00:50:01.530 --> 00:50:03.750 we've got to go on this ride because the queue 00:50:03.750 --> 00:50:08.889 will be obscene if we don't go. So, yeah, we 00:50:08.889 --> 00:50:10.849 did get to go on it. And then, yeah. And that's 00:50:10.849 --> 00:50:12.889 the one I've seen, isn't it? It's the mine cart 00:50:12.889 --> 00:50:17.090 runaway thing. Oh, it's so good. I can't believe 00:50:17.090 --> 00:50:19.469 it really doesn't jump. What the fuck did you 00:50:19.469 --> 00:50:20.929 expect? What do they think is going to happen? 00:50:21.150 --> 00:50:24.349 I nearly did it. You're allowed to say it on 00:50:24.349 --> 00:50:27.769 this show. No, you're not. You're not. Yeah, 00:50:27.809 --> 00:50:30.090 who actually thinks they're going to have a roller 00:50:30.090 --> 00:50:32.210 coaster where the cart comes off the track and 00:50:32.210 --> 00:50:34.750 jumps to the next bit? People out there genuinely 00:50:34.750 --> 00:50:36.710 would disappoint you. It's like, you're an idiot. 00:50:36.929 --> 00:50:39.570 Super dumb. Super dumb. Please don't become a 00:50:39.570 --> 00:50:41.929 roller coaster architect. Go and buy Roller Coaster 00:50:41.929 --> 00:50:44.349 Tycoon. Do it there and see what happens. I mean, 00:50:44.349 --> 00:50:45.550 think of the logistics of it. How would they 00:50:45.550 --> 00:50:47.909 even plan that for the fat people who go on it? 00:50:48.409 --> 00:50:50.849 They're like, no, we've got to actually, you've 00:50:50.849 --> 00:50:52.650 got to sit in the back and in the middle. No, 00:50:52.730 --> 00:50:55.090 sorry, we can't let your roller coaster go because 00:50:55.090 --> 00:50:58.210 it's underweight. Yeah, you're not fat enough. 00:50:58.289 --> 00:50:59.090 You're going to hit that ramp and you're going 00:50:59.090 --> 00:51:01.570 to go off the end and never be seen again. We 00:51:01.570 --> 00:51:03.829 need more fat people in your car. Yeah, we have 00:51:03.829 --> 00:51:06.949 to weigh you before you come on the ride. Anyone 00:51:06.949 --> 00:51:09.769 who's... We need a 13 stone. Anyone who's 13 00:51:09.769 --> 00:51:12.050 stone single rider? Are you 13 stone? You're 00:51:12.050 --> 00:51:16.110 4XL? You'll do. Yeah, you're on your own. You 00:51:16.110 --> 00:51:18.610 get to go on your own. But all the rides there 00:51:18.610 --> 00:51:22.170 are brilliant. The Haunted Area. I really liked 00:51:22.170 --> 00:51:24.400 the Haunted Area. It was really cool. He was 00:51:24.400 --> 00:51:25.920 quite scared of it. It would have been quite 00:51:25.920 --> 00:51:29.219 nice if they'd done a Luigi's Mansion. Yeah, 00:51:29.300 --> 00:51:32.920 they should have done that. So they've plenty 00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:35.159 of room to expand. There's so much space. America's 00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:36.739 massive. They could just make other little bits. 00:51:36.840 --> 00:51:38.679 But Luigi's Mansion, that's a really good shout. 00:51:38.820 --> 00:51:40.699 They could have another little bit and have a 00:51:40.699 --> 00:51:43.159 haunted ghost ride for kids of Luigi's Mansion. 00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:45.199 That would be so cool. Could you imagine you 00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:47.500 get your own little backpack with a vacuum? And 00:51:47.500 --> 00:51:49.880 you've got to go around and vacuum the VR ghosts 00:51:49.880 --> 00:51:51.539 or even just the ghosts on the wall. So you could 00:51:51.539 --> 00:51:54.400 just do projectors. And as soon as, if you put 00:51:54.400 --> 00:51:56.199 something like a retro reflector on the end of 00:51:56.199 --> 00:51:58.960 the vacuum, as soon as it got there and you got 00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:00.940 the sense of looking for the, oh, make that ghost 00:52:00.940 --> 00:52:02.760 disappear into the vacuum. So you could have 00:52:02.760 --> 00:52:05.980 them run around vacuuming up things. So there's 00:52:05.980 --> 00:52:09.880 a Minions ride that you stand on a moving floor. 00:52:10.420 --> 00:52:12.219 Do you stand on a spot? I got told off because 00:52:12.219 --> 00:52:15.300 I nailed down. And you have a gun and you shoot 00:52:15.300 --> 00:52:17.250 all these screens. They could just be like that, 00:52:17.289 --> 00:52:19.070 where you stand on this platform that moves around 00:52:19.070 --> 00:52:20.929 and you have your gun. That's probably what they 00:52:20.929 --> 00:52:22.630 would do. I don't think they would let kids run 00:52:22.630 --> 00:52:24.909 around with this technology in their hands. No, 00:52:24.909 --> 00:52:27.570 that's fair enough. You're probably right there. 00:52:27.690 --> 00:52:30.889 But I think that would be what I would have. 00:52:30.989 --> 00:52:34.889 And I think... Call me old -fashioned. Okay, 00:52:34.929 --> 00:52:40.219 old -fashioned. Cunt. Mario 64. I'd have big 00:52:40.219 --> 00:52:42.179 golden frames all around the place that you could 00:52:42.179 --> 00:52:44.019 step through into different worlds like Mario 00:52:44.019 --> 00:52:47.389 64. Okay, when you go into Peach's Castle. Oh, 00:52:47.409 --> 00:52:49.150 it's not, is it? Pictures on the left and right. 00:52:49.230 --> 00:52:52.650 Yes! And they change. And one time, I've got 00:52:52.650 --> 00:52:55.130 a photo of it with T because he loved it. It 00:52:55.130 --> 00:52:57.389 turned into the Bob -omb picture for the first 00:52:57.389 --> 00:53:00.190 one. Oh, mate. Yeah, I've got a picture of it. 00:53:00.250 --> 00:53:03.449 Oh, that makes my heart happy. Because he's played 00:53:03.449 --> 00:53:05.449 it so many times and he goes for the pinch. He's 00:53:05.449 --> 00:53:07.010 like, oh, and he was pretending to jump through 00:53:07.010 --> 00:53:10.489 the picture. Oh, yes. So that's Mario World. 00:53:10.550 --> 00:53:14.550 It is so brilliant, Mario World. It's just... 00:53:14.940 --> 00:53:18.039 I would say give the place a year to settle down. 00:53:18.559 --> 00:53:21.219 Maybe even longer. Is it going anywhere? Yeah, 00:53:21.340 --> 00:53:26.239 no, it's not going to. It was just so, so busy. 00:53:26.800 --> 00:53:30.000 And yeah, if you do, if anyone listening is planning 00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:32.739 on going, you've got, I say really more expensive, 00:53:32.920 --> 00:53:35.099 but you've got to buy the fast bus tickets. Especially 00:53:35.099 --> 00:53:38.550 if you're going with a kid. the only way you're 00:53:38.550 --> 00:53:39.929 going to get on anything. Yeah, if you're planning 00:53:39.929 --> 00:53:42.369 on going for a week and just be doing it for 00:53:42.369 --> 00:53:44.530 a week, I would say probably don't bother with 00:53:44.530 --> 00:53:46.030 the fast pass because you're going for the week. 00:53:46.110 --> 00:53:50.909 You've dedicated yourself to queuing. You can't 00:53:50.909 --> 00:53:53.530 for Epic. The only way you can go to Epic multiple 00:53:53.530 --> 00:53:56.269 times is you've got to pay multiple times or 00:53:56.269 --> 00:53:58.010 if you're in the resort. So what these places 00:53:58.010 --> 00:54:00.010 normally do, Disney and Universal do it, is you 00:54:00.010 --> 00:54:04.239 don't really buy a day ticket. You buy a week 00:54:04.239 --> 00:54:06.300 or two weeks. And most of the time Universal 00:54:06.300 --> 00:54:08.059 I think is two weeks and Disney lets you do a 00:54:08.059 --> 00:54:10.079 week or two. And then that means you can go into 00:54:10.079 --> 00:54:11.739 any of their parks as many times as you like. 00:54:12.619 --> 00:54:14.559 It multiplies one day. You can go from park to 00:54:14.559 --> 00:54:16.079 park, whatever you want in that two week period, 00:54:16.139 --> 00:54:20.320 but not with Epic. So you buy the pass and that 00:54:20.320 --> 00:54:23.719 gives you one day at Epic that you can pick. 00:54:23.960 --> 00:54:27.900 So I had to separately pay and choose a day for 00:54:27.900 --> 00:54:31.809 us to go back to Epic again. I know that the 00:54:31.809 --> 00:54:35.670 websites in 2026 holiday period are changing 00:54:35.670 --> 00:54:38.230 it. So you will be able to go in and out as you 00:54:38.230 --> 00:54:40.130 like for Epic as well because they're advertising 00:54:40.130 --> 00:54:43.530 it. But the dates we went, we weren't allowed 00:54:43.530 --> 00:54:45.309 to do that. And I'm only imagining it's because 00:54:45.309 --> 00:54:48.429 it's so new for that reason. But that's what 00:54:48.429 --> 00:54:53.170 you're right. Or when we actually found some 00:54:53.170 --> 00:54:54.869 other English people that were there and we started 00:54:54.869 --> 00:54:56.710 talking to this nice lady in the queue for ice 00:54:56.710 --> 00:54:59.610 cream, she said that she was staying in a resort. 00:55:00.269 --> 00:55:02.190 which meant she could come in an hour earlier 00:55:02.190 --> 00:55:04.409 and did all the particular rides she wanted to 00:55:04.409 --> 00:55:07.610 do in that hour because they were still queues 00:55:07.610 --> 00:55:09.570 because I could see the app. No, of course, but 00:55:09.570 --> 00:55:13.090 you're talking a fraction. But if you're there 00:55:13.090 --> 00:55:15.090 for three days, you could quickly run around 00:55:15.090 --> 00:55:17.630 each time and go, okay, tomorrow morning we're 00:55:17.630 --> 00:55:20.150 going to do Donkey Kong and maybe Maricot. Next 00:55:20.150 --> 00:55:22.250 morning we're going to go and do Stardust and 00:55:22.250 --> 00:55:25.510 whatever. You literally dedicate your... One 00:55:25.510 --> 00:55:28.250 you definitely want each day. Yeah. No, that's 00:55:28.250 --> 00:55:30.130 fair enough. I understand that. Okay, next thing. 00:55:30.210 --> 00:55:34.429 Actual sci -fi. We finally got to go to the Star 00:55:34.429 --> 00:55:37.389 Wars world bit of the Hollywood studios, which 00:55:37.389 --> 00:55:39.530 used to be called MGM Studios. So I haven't been 00:55:39.530 --> 00:55:42.510 to it since it changed its name years ago. And 00:55:42.510 --> 00:55:44.070 they've got a whole world that is Star Wars. 00:55:44.230 --> 00:55:46.769 And I've got to say, as good as the Mario Land 00:55:46.769 --> 00:55:52.840 is for Mario, Disney have really... they have 00:55:52.840 --> 00:55:55.780 really knocked it out of the park with star wars 00:55:55.780 --> 00:56:00.780 because it is you step into it and it is you 00:56:00.780 --> 00:56:03.739 cannot perceive it to be anything but star wars 00:56:03.739 --> 00:56:06.699 it is exactly every and all the car they call 00:56:06.699 --> 00:56:08.139 because they call them cast members the staff 00:56:08.139 --> 00:56:11.699 yeah they talk to you like they're there They 00:56:11.699 --> 00:56:13.400 don't talk to you like, oh, did you watch the 00:56:13.400 --> 00:56:15.940 baseball game last night? They're talking about 00:56:15.940 --> 00:56:18.159 Star Wars stuff. They get fired if they do that. 00:56:18.219 --> 00:56:20.659 They've got to stay in character. It's an amazing 00:56:20.659 --> 00:56:23.139 thing to see. There's stormtroopers running around. 00:56:23.300 --> 00:56:26.980 I saw the Mandalorian walking around twice. It's 00:56:26.980 --> 00:56:30.320 just absolutely incredible. So I watched a video 00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:32.679 on that. The stormtroopers, they talk like stormtroopers. 00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:35.139 And they didn't talk to us, but they will talk 00:56:35.139 --> 00:56:38.059 to you. I thought it was a voice changer. It's 00:56:38.059 --> 00:56:41.099 not. The people inside are not speaking. They've 00:56:41.099 --> 00:56:45.599 got set things that it can say, but they scrolling 00:56:45.599 --> 00:56:47.860 for, apparently they're using one of their hands 00:56:47.860 --> 00:56:50.300 to scroll through a list. So I don't know if 00:56:50.300 --> 00:56:53.860 they've got a screen, but they know certain finger 00:56:53.860 --> 00:56:57.119 movements will bring up who you're talking to. 00:56:57.500 --> 00:57:00.179 adult child yeah and then the kind of subject 00:57:00.179 --> 00:57:03.860 you're being mean you're being kind you're searching 00:57:03.860 --> 00:57:06.599 them you know they're a jedi they're not that's 00:57:06.599 --> 00:57:08.960 very cool they can skip through these lists of 00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:11.059 things and say but you see you never notice that 00:57:11.059 --> 00:57:13.539 makes sense because when we went to disneyland 00:57:13.539 --> 00:57:17.099 paris a few years ago with k disneyland paris's 00:57:17.099 --> 00:57:18.820 star wars was phenomenal it's not going to be 00:57:18.820 --> 00:57:20.780 a mark on what you've had i can guarantee you 00:57:20.780 --> 00:57:23.929 that disneyland paris's star wars world Very 00:57:23.929 --> 00:57:29.769 clever, very cool. You did not have any change 00:57:29.769 --> 00:57:31.670 in your mind that you were still just in a theme 00:57:31.670 --> 00:57:36.050 park. It wasn't that immersive. Clever, but not 00:57:36.050 --> 00:57:40.469 over the top. Sorry, not over the top, but nowhere 00:57:40.469 --> 00:57:42.809 near over the top. So it was very easy just to 00:57:42.809 --> 00:57:45.070 say, well, no, I know where I am. But all of 00:57:45.070 --> 00:57:47.090 their characters, bear in mind, their cast are 00:57:47.090 --> 00:57:49.889 going to be predominantly French -speaking, exactly 00:57:49.889 --> 00:57:52.460 the same. speaking english sounding like they 00:57:52.460 --> 00:57:54.099 are from the film so i'm guessing it's the same 00:57:54.099 --> 00:57:57.380 solution yeah like i asked somebody where to 00:57:57.380 --> 00:57:59.219 buy some kyber crystals from was in there where 00:57:59.219 --> 00:58:01.840 the shop was and then he's talking to me like 00:58:01.840 --> 00:58:04.820 it's a secret shop you know around here down 00:58:04.820 --> 00:58:09.900 here by these um you know these these what they 00:58:09.900 --> 00:58:13.760 call like um fabric umbrella things whatever 00:58:13.760 --> 00:58:18.300 canopies um yeah just and the rides in there 00:58:18.300 --> 00:58:21.949 were so good So they've had one there forever, 00:58:21.949 --> 00:58:25.010 since I was a kid, called Star Tours. And it 00:58:25.010 --> 00:58:26.829 used to just be like a shuttle that just goes 00:58:26.829 --> 00:58:28.889 off. And it was never really... It was Star Wars, 00:58:29.010 --> 00:58:31.769 but it wasn't... Yeah, you get in it. Oh, everything's 00:58:31.769 --> 00:58:35.070 gone wrong. And then, oh no, we're in the Death 00:58:35.070 --> 00:58:39.449 Star Trench. Yeah, yeah. Now they've properly 00:58:39.449 --> 00:58:43.250 made it. Now they've made it like the new film 00:58:43.250 --> 00:58:45.469 Star Wars. They've modernised it. Yes, you've 00:58:45.469 --> 00:58:48.230 got C -3PO in the ship with you rather than it 00:58:48.230 --> 00:58:50.670 being a random robot like it was before. You 00:58:50.670 --> 00:58:54.409 get... What's his bloody name? What's the baddie 00:58:54.409 --> 00:58:56.789 in the new ones? Kylo Ren. Kylo's Ren's there 00:58:56.789 --> 00:58:59.610 trying to grab the ship. Loads of really cool 00:58:59.610 --> 00:59:02.510 things happen in it. I don't think you do a Death 00:59:02.510 --> 00:59:04.289 Star. You go on the planet with all the red stuff. 00:59:04.909 --> 00:59:08.099 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's so good. we were on 00:59:08.099 --> 00:59:10.860 it twice he loved it he was really like skeptical 00:59:10.860 --> 00:59:12.280 about the star wars because he didn't know anything 00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:15.539 about it was scared of it he now loves it and 00:59:15.539 --> 00:59:17.360 he's we got him a darth vader when we were there 00:59:17.360 --> 00:59:19.860 he doesn't really kind of realize all the bad 00:59:19.860 --> 00:59:21.860 guys as i'll tell you about in a minute it's 00:59:21.860 --> 00:59:25.159 okay to like the bad yeah i think it is and we 00:59:25.159 --> 00:59:28.539 went on what i think is one of the best rides 00:59:28.539 --> 00:59:32.139 ever created which is the resistance ride and 00:59:32.139 --> 00:59:35.989 the reason i say this is because The queue itself 00:59:35.989 --> 00:59:42.590 is the ride. Imagine in the Hoth and you're going 00:59:42.590 --> 00:59:45.670 through all the tunnels of Hoth. You're going 00:59:45.670 --> 00:59:46.849 through something like that. You're not on Hoth, 00:59:46.929 --> 00:59:48.389 but you're going through these tunnels and you 00:59:48.389 --> 00:59:50.050 can tell it's a resistance hideout. You've got 00:59:50.050 --> 00:59:55.630 all of the weird cages with uniforms and resistance 00:59:55.630 --> 00:59:58.610 pilot stuff and just mess and the weird cool 00:59:58.610 --> 01:00:01.210 screens that they all use everywhere. And then 01:00:01.210 --> 01:00:04.030 you kind of go and you're... being told you're 01:00:04.030 --> 01:00:05.809 a civilian trying to escape the planet because 01:00:05.809 --> 01:00:09.010 the Empire is coming. Nice. And the Resistance 01:00:09.010 --> 01:00:12.510 are trying to get you off. Oh, they are. Yeah, 01:00:12.530 --> 01:00:14.010 they're trying to get you off. This is Leia. 01:00:14.130 --> 01:00:17.809 As part of the queue, you go into this, suddenly 01:00:17.809 --> 01:00:20.150 you're in this open area and there is a spaceship 01:00:20.150 --> 01:00:23.889 there. A spaceship, right? And there's no other 01:00:23.889 --> 01:00:26.170 way I can describe to you other than there is 01:00:26.170 --> 01:00:29.750 a real spaceship there. The doors open and you 01:00:29.750 --> 01:00:33.909 step inside. Okay? Yeah. And then, this is still 01:00:33.909 --> 01:00:36.250 the queue. There's now a screen in there. There's 01:00:36.250 --> 01:00:37.989 characters. There's the fish. There's a fish 01:00:37.989 --> 01:00:41.170 man. You know who I mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I 01:00:41.170 --> 01:00:42.869 know. And Grandma Toph, or whatever his name 01:00:42.869 --> 01:00:46.469 is, but not him. Christopher Lloyd. And you then 01:00:46.469 --> 01:00:48.469 take off the planet. The ship you're standing 01:00:48.469 --> 01:00:53.670 in is moving around. And, you know... breaking 01:00:53.670 --> 01:00:55.690 your own fourth wall thing the door you come 01:00:55.690 --> 01:00:58.329 in is going to be the door you go out no sorry 01:00:58.329 --> 01:01:00.289 the way you come in isn't going to be the door 01:01:00.289 --> 01:01:01.449 you come out of because you're going to step 01:01:01.449 --> 01:01:04.070 out the other side and that's going to be the 01:01:04.070 --> 01:01:06.289 other one no no no you step out the door that 01:01:06.289 --> 01:01:09.010 you stepped into and it is totally different 01:01:09.010 --> 01:01:14.690 you're now on an a spaceship the bad guy spaceship 01:01:14.690 --> 01:01:19.239 with like 20 or 30 stormtroopers stood there 01:01:19.239 --> 01:01:22.260 and the commander people and now all the staff 01:01:22.260 --> 01:01:24.139 and now come on and they're being mean to you 01:01:24.139 --> 01:01:26.519 because now you're a prisoner and they're not 01:01:26.519 --> 01:01:28.699 being nice to you telling you stand here stand 01:01:28.699 --> 01:01:31.820 here how many of you stand here you there you 01:01:31.820 --> 01:01:34.599 there don't talk you know and like you feel like 01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:37.199 you're a prisoner and i was like this is the 01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:39.960 most immersive queue i've ever been in that's 01:01:39.960 --> 01:01:42.840 absolutely awesome and then you get put in an 01:01:42.840 --> 01:01:46.579 interrogation chamber and it's got you see um 01:01:46.579 --> 01:01:50.760 the main general from the new films who's in 01:01:50.760 --> 01:01:55.500 everything and uh kylo ren are talking on a balcony 01:01:55.500 --> 01:01:59.420 above you and then one of those black robot things 01:01:59.420 --> 01:02:01.360 come up out the ground you know with all the 01:02:01.360 --> 01:02:03.760 bits on them that they're gonna do and and then 01:02:03.760 --> 01:02:07.079 you get broken out but they don't just open door 01:02:07.079 --> 01:02:10.579 someone's plasma cutting the wall next to you 01:02:11.320 --> 01:02:13.360 And it looks like the plasma cut in the wall. 01:02:13.480 --> 01:02:16.199 You have no idea there's a door there. It looks 01:02:16.199 --> 01:02:18.440 like a wall. It's not like one of those pretend 01:02:18.440 --> 01:02:20.460 ones. Oh, yeah, there's a door there, mate. No, 01:02:21.320 --> 01:02:24.300 I was stood there. That was a wall. And now it's 01:02:24.300 --> 01:02:25.940 a plasma cut door. And that's why they don't 01:02:25.940 --> 01:02:28.119 let people film on these because it ruins the 01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:30.619 magic. So I'm ruining it for all of you. Sorry, 01:02:30.699 --> 01:02:33.900 everybody. And the door gets plasma cut open. 01:02:34.340 --> 01:02:38.139 And then you are escaping. And then you get put 01:02:38.139 --> 01:02:39.619 in this weird little thing. And then it's the 01:02:39.619 --> 01:02:43.760 ride. And the ride, I don't know how to explain. 01:02:44.340 --> 01:02:46.400 I would say I'd never been on it, but I went 01:02:46.400 --> 01:02:48.119 on the Ratatouille ride a few days before and 01:02:48.119 --> 01:02:50.599 it's just like that. So you're in this weird 01:02:50.599 --> 01:02:55.460 four person seat thing. I don't know how it works. 01:02:55.519 --> 01:02:57.019 I tried to explain to my dad and my dad's like 01:02:57.019 --> 01:02:58.840 magnets because the magnets explain everything. 01:03:00.260 --> 01:03:02.679 There's no track anywhere. There's just a floor, 01:03:02.840 --> 01:03:05.079 right? And it's moving around all over the place. 01:03:05.159 --> 01:03:07.239 And there's other people. You're intertwining 01:03:07.239 --> 01:03:08.940 with each other. They're all doing different 01:03:08.940 --> 01:03:12.079 things. I can answer this. Go on, please. Magnets. 01:03:12.079 --> 01:03:15.679 It's a Disney special technology. The floor is 01:03:15.679 --> 01:03:19.059 thousands of little balls. And basically, if 01:03:19.059 --> 01:03:21.260 you look at it, it's amazing to watch. Anything 01:03:21.260 --> 01:03:23.480 they put on it, they can just drive it around 01:03:23.480 --> 01:03:25.599 and it will go anywhere they want. I could... 01:03:25.599 --> 01:03:30.130 Magic. Magic and magnets is the only way to explain 01:03:30.130 --> 01:03:31.949 it. I've got to say, Disney, full stop on their 01:03:31.949 --> 01:03:34.769 technology and what they have created for their 01:03:34.769 --> 01:03:38.750 parks is just amazing. And the amount that they 01:03:38.750 --> 01:03:44.510 do just to make you feel so enveloped and immersed 01:03:44.510 --> 01:03:47.369 in what they're doing. I mean, again, not a mark 01:03:47.369 --> 01:03:50.570 on what that is, but when I went to Paris, this 01:03:50.570 --> 01:03:53.090 was back in the early 2000s, they had the Armageddon 01:03:53.090 --> 01:03:57.090 ride. Yeah. So, yeah. I know it was Disney and 01:03:57.090 --> 01:04:00.050 the Universal. It was Universal at Disney Paris, 01:04:00.210 --> 01:04:01.969 isn't it? You've got the Disney park and then 01:04:01.969 --> 01:04:04.409 you've got the film studios anyway. That won't 01:04:04.409 --> 01:04:06.030 be Universal though. It's a different company. 01:04:06.289 --> 01:04:09.010 It'd be Hollywood Studios or MGM. No, I can't. 01:04:09.010 --> 01:04:11.650 I'll look up in a minute. I don't know. It had 01:04:11.650 --> 01:04:15.150 Armageddon. And again, it's a bit of a walking 01:04:15.150 --> 01:04:20.170 one. And then you end up on the mere space station. 01:04:20.449 --> 01:04:23.739 Oh, cool. Literally between me and you, the distance 01:04:23.739 --> 01:04:27.440 that is, that's about three foot. It's the hole 01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:32.679 that AJ is down. And they just pump this huge 01:04:32.679 --> 01:04:36.980 non -stop blazer fire down it. No safety barriers 01:04:36.980 --> 01:04:39.980 or anything. And my... when I came out with the 01:04:39.980 --> 01:04:41.800 girlfriend at the time, my first time, your face 01:04:41.800 --> 01:04:44.079 is really red. It's like, yeah, I think I'm actually 01:04:44.079 --> 01:04:47.880 burnt. It's like, this is amazing. You properly 01:04:47.880 --> 01:04:50.539 felt immersed into it. Oh yeah, that was the 01:04:50.539 --> 01:04:52.340 very first ride. I'll go back to Star Wars in 01:04:52.340 --> 01:04:53.500 a minute. The very first ride we went on was 01:04:53.500 --> 01:04:55.820 the Spider -Man ride at Universal. And it was 01:04:55.820 --> 01:04:58.000 a bad choice because it was actually a bit scary. 01:04:58.340 --> 01:05:00.519 And there is a bit with real fire. And T was 01:05:00.519 --> 01:05:04.420 like, fire came out the TV. It's like, he was 01:05:04.420 --> 01:05:06.719 like, he hated that ride. He was scared if he 01:05:06.719 --> 01:05:09.480 closed his eyes in the end. Anyway, back to Star 01:05:09.480 --> 01:05:12.219 Wars. So, yeah, and you're going around, as now 01:05:12.219 --> 01:05:15.920 we know, it's magnets, magic and balls. And you 01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:17.619 go around and the screen's happening and Kylo 01:05:17.619 --> 01:05:19.679 Ren's chasing you and you go into a spaceship. 01:05:20.599 --> 01:05:22.659 It is brilliant. One of the best rides I've ever 01:05:22.659 --> 01:05:24.920 been on. If anyone ever gets a chance to go, 01:05:25.079 --> 01:05:27.619 this is where you've got to go and go straight 01:05:27.619 --> 01:05:30.320 to that bit. Go to MGM Studios and go straight 01:05:30.320 --> 01:05:32.539 to the Resistance ride and just go on it. And 01:05:32.539 --> 01:05:34.880 then the ride after that was the Millennium Falcon, 01:05:35.079 --> 01:05:37.909 which they bloody had there. an actual Millennium 01:05:37.909 --> 01:05:39.869 Falcon that looked like it was the right size 01:05:39.869 --> 01:05:42.110 to be Millennium Falcon. Amazing. And what the 01:05:42.110 --> 01:05:45.710 ride is, you can be six of you, but luckily for 01:05:45.710 --> 01:05:48.550 us, the first time was only us three, and the 01:05:48.550 --> 01:05:50.110 second time there was like two other people, 01:05:50.150 --> 01:05:53.769 but both times we got the same position. You 01:05:53.769 --> 01:05:56.150 have two drivers, two gunners, and two engineers, 01:05:56.230 --> 01:06:01.730 and you literally go into the Millennium Falcon, 01:06:01.909 --> 01:06:05.210 and they have built it, the queue. is the millennium 01:06:05.210 --> 01:06:07.530 falcon you're in it where the chessboard is and 01:06:07.530 --> 01:06:09.929 all that stuff and then they have loads of other 01:06:09.929 --> 01:06:11.690 doors which all lead to the cockpit so there's 01:06:11.690 --> 01:06:13.789 that little bit if you don't care but you're 01:06:13.789 --> 01:06:17.090 in the main room and then you go into the cockpit 01:06:17.090 --> 01:06:18.630 of the millennium falcon and it's all there all 01:06:18.630 --> 01:06:20.250 the buttons all the things that you pull on and 01:06:20.250 --> 01:06:22.590 stuff and then you have so the two drivers one 01:06:22.590 --> 01:06:24.530 person is up and down one person is left and 01:06:24.530 --> 01:06:26.610 right yeah and you have a few other buttons and 01:06:26.610 --> 01:06:29.269 levers and stuff the gunners one person i don't 01:06:29.269 --> 01:06:34.989 know what the two Do other engineer stuff. Never 01:06:34.989 --> 01:06:37.489 sat in those seats. I don't know. But luckily 01:06:37.489 --> 01:06:39.110 for us, both times we went on it, we got the 01:06:39.110 --> 01:06:45.050 pilot seat. So T got to do both positions. I've 01:06:45.050 --> 01:06:47.550 got photos. You get points at the end and also 01:06:47.550 --> 01:06:52.190 negative points for collisions. Can you wonder 01:06:52.190 --> 01:06:54.929 what happened? So you basically, you fly the 01:06:54.929 --> 01:06:57.860 ship and then you have to. like try and smuggle 01:06:57.860 --> 01:07:01.320 away and hook onto this train and when you're 01:07:01.320 --> 01:07:03.059 doing that you've got to fly through these hoops 01:07:03.059 --> 01:07:05.599 we never managed it um and then collect and fly 01:07:05.599 --> 01:07:08.719 off but wow brilliant you're in the cockpit and 01:07:08.719 --> 01:07:12.199 everything you see is screen in front of you 01:07:12.199 --> 01:07:13.960 so you can't lean forward and look to the side 01:07:13.960 --> 01:07:15.840 and side and see anything other than more screen 01:07:15.840 --> 01:07:17.920 they've done such a brilliant job that's very 01:07:17.920 --> 01:07:20.360 and you do feel like you're flying it because 01:07:20.360 --> 01:07:23.150 it I don't know if it really moved or maybe you 01:07:23.150 --> 01:07:26.010 just kind of thought you were, but like one person, 01:07:26.050 --> 01:07:28.789 whoever's doing the up and down also has the 01:07:28.789 --> 01:07:31.150 hyperspace thing. So you'll hear the person, 01:07:31.190 --> 01:07:32.590 you're going to go to hyperspace and then you 01:07:32.590 --> 01:07:34.429 pull the things down and off you go into hyperspace 01:07:34.429 --> 01:07:36.489 and other buttons turn and you've got to turn 01:07:36.489 --> 01:07:38.210 the ship on. So all of you have got buttons that 01:07:38.210 --> 01:07:39.789 you've got to click on and click. Oh, wicked. 01:07:39.909 --> 01:07:43.090 Yeah. We went on that twice. That again, they 01:07:43.090 --> 01:07:44.949 really knocked out the park. And then obviously 01:07:44.949 --> 01:07:47.530 we saying obviously to you, cause you know, we 01:07:47.530 --> 01:07:50.960 went and built our own lightsaber. Yeah. I wasn't 01:07:50.960 --> 01:07:54.000 planning on doing it, and I hadn't booked it. 01:07:54.000 --> 01:07:57.480 You've got to book it. I hadn't booked it. And 01:07:57.480 --> 01:07:58.900 then it was kind of a spur -of -the -moment thing. 01:07:58.920 --> 01:08:01.199 I was like, no, actually, this is going to be 01:08:01.199 --> 01:08:04.019 really cool. T's showing a real interest. I was 01:08:04.019 --> 01:08:06.659 like, we've got to do this. 100%. 100%. You can't 01:08:06.659 --> 01:08:09.019 not do it. If he's showing interest in it, the 01:08:09.019 --> 01:08:11.760 lightsaber is such a key part of Star Wars lore. 01:08:12.239 --> 01:08:16.119 So we went, and I asked this very nice person 01:08:16.119 --> 01:08:17.760 who was on this, and they were like, you haven't 01:08:17.760 --> 01:08:20.100 booked. I'll tell you what, let me call my manager 01:08:20.100 --> 01:08:22.140 and just see if they've got space. And they had 01:08:22.140 --> 01:08:25.399 space. So we went straight in on that one, paid 01:08:25.399 --> 01:08:26.859 for the beer. So I've got, I have to show you 01:08:26.859 --> 01:08:28.199 it. You haven't seen it. No, I've not seen it. 01:08:28.260 --> 01:08:29.359 I'm looking forward to it. And it's in the dark 01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:32.239 too. So they're just, there is the blades in 01:08:32.239 --> 01:08:34.319 there. Not part of the health. The blade comes 01:08:34.319 --> 01:08:36.199 off the hilt. Oh, wow. So it's a big old pet. 01:08:36.260 --> 01:08:37.159 So you've got to get that back on the fly. They 01:08:37.159 --> 01:08:39.939 gave us that for free. Well, luckily. So apparently 01:08:39.939 --> 01:08:43.539 the Florida Orlando airports, TSA agents are 01:08:43.539 --> 01:08:46.159 very familiar with those. And they don't count 01:08:46.159 --> 01:08:48.539 it as anything. They just. They just want to 01:08:48.539 --> 01:08:49.819 know what it is. You put it through the machine, 01:08:49.960 --> 01:08:51.239 they know. Of course. They know what's happening. 01:08:51.460 --> 01:08:53.199 And it doesn't count as hand luggage or anything. 01:08:53.380 --> 01:08:59.699 Oh, that's cool. And yeah, so you, it then, like, 01:08:59.760 --> 01:09:01.300 it's not just you go and just build it. You then 01:09:01.300 --> 01:09:04.699 pick out four styles and you get given a card 01:09:04.699 --> 01:09:06.039 and they give you a special collector's pin. 01:09:06.220 --> 01:09:07.680 So I've got a little pin badge, particularly 01:09:07.680 --> 01:09:09.880 of the style that he chose. So I let him build 01:09:09.880 --> 01:09:12.220 it, him choose it. Luckily, he chose what I actually 01:09:12.220 --> 01:09:14.119 would have chosen. So that was actually quite 01:09:14.119 --> 01:09:17.699 nice. So thank you for that. You then go in and 01:09:17.699 --> 01:09:21.319 it's like a secret rebel base and you're building 01:09:21.319 --> 01:09:24.279 secretly your lightsaber. And there's a whole 01:09:24.279 --> 01:09:26.979 story and it's got it. And then Yoda's voice 01:09:26.979 --> 01:09:30.960 comes through and then you put your lightsaber 01:09:30.960 --> 01:09:33.220 into this tube and then you press the button 01:09:33.220 --> 01:09:35.640 and then it turns on inside this tube and you 01:09:35.640 --> 01:09:37.500 pull it out. Now you've got your lightsaber. 01:09:37.680 --> 01:09:39.979 I've got this great video because he wanted red. 01:09:40.319 --> 01:09:43.619 Yeah. And then they're coming around and. The 01:09:43.619 --> 01:09:46.060 guy was saying what colours were people. And 01:09:46.060 --> 01:09:48.880 then he said, you know, and typically the evil 01:09:48.880 --> 01:09:52.079 characters, you know, or rather the dark side 01:09:52.079 --> 01:09:54.460 of the force tends to display as red. He said, 01:09:54.479 --> 01:09:56.180 but it doesn't mean you're bad, but it displays 01:09:56.180 --> 01:09:59.100 red. And he starts going Darth Vader, Darth Sidious, 01:09:59.239 --> 01:10:02.239 a couple of others. And then T, after saying 01:10:02.239 --> 01:10:04.420 red the whole time, went, I want blue. I was 01:10:04.420 --> 01:10:07.720 like, dude, it's fine. Red doesn't mean you're 01:10:07.720 --> 01:10:10.979 a baddie. If you want red, you get red. So we 01:10:10.979 --> 01:10:12.779 went, okay, red. I was like, good. I'm glad he 01:10:12.779 --> 01:10:14.239 went back to it because that's what he wanted. 01:10:14.579 --> 01:10:16.539 That's what he wanted. And he did it. And then 01:10:16.539 --> 01:10:18.479 he got it out and you all had to put your lightsaber 01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:20.380 in the air. And the guy's going around and he 01:10:20.380 --> 01:10:22.720 stops at tea. And he goes, and he says something, 01:10:22.859 --> 01:10:26.079 we're going to have to keep an eye on you. Because 01:10:26.079 --> 01:10:27.800 he was, I think there was maybe only one other 01:10:27.800 --> 01:10:29.739 person with red. Everyone else had blue, green, 01:10:29.859 --> 01:10:31.640 and there was one purple. I would have chosen 01:10:31.640 --> 01:10:33.399 purple. Oh, you would have been the Lawrence 01:10:33.399 --> 01:10:35.359 Fishburne. I would have chosen, no. No, not Lawrence, 01:10:35.359 --> 01:10:36.859 Samuel L. Jackson. I would have chosen purple. 01:10:37.640 --> 01:10:40.920 But in the end, I did go and buy. every crystal 01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:43.399 you could get but there's a thing where there's 01:10:43.399 --> 01:10:45.779 like a hidden black crystal yeah it's like one 01:10:45.779 --> 01:10:47.819 in a hundred and i thought you know what i'm 01:10:47.819 --> 01:10:49.359 not gonna go and spend loads of money getting 01:10:49.359 --> 01:10:52.140 it i'm gonna buy one more red one i'll let him 01:10:52.140 --> 01:10:54.800 choose it and if we happen to get the black ones 01:10:54.800 --> 01:10:57.199 because you can display them yeah like you get 01:10:57.199 --> 01:10:59.319 you can buy the stand and then you get buy these 01:10:59.319 --> 01:11:01.079 little bits that the kyber crystals can get displayed 01:11:01.079 --> 01:11:03.020 on then they light up and it's the color of the 01:11:03.020 --> 01:11:04.899 crystal when it lights up so it's like okay well 01:11:04.899 --> 01:11:06.460 i can have a red one in the lightsaber so if 01:11:06.460 --> 01:11:08.300 you want to play with it She's not allowed to. 01:11:08.300 --> 01:11:11.520 Job done. You can, just not outside. The red 01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:13.079 one's already in it, but I can still have my 01:11:13.079 --> 01:11:15.899 little geeky display of all of them. So I'm only 01:11:15.899 --> 01:11:17.579 missing the black one, but the black comes out 01:11:17.579 --> 01:11:21.380 as red anyway. So whatever, who cares? But I'm 01:11:21.380 --> 01:11:26.060 not going to spend 20. Next time I go, if I ever 01:11:26.060 --> 01:11:28.779 go again, I'll buy a red one again and just see 01:11:28.779 --> 01:11:30.460 if I'm lucky. And if I'm not, I'll sell on eBay. 01:11:30.739 --> 01:11:32.479 I don't need another red one, but I might as 01:11:32.479 --> 01:11:35.600 well just try. So yeah, so he's got his lightsaber. 01:11:35.939 --> 01:11:39.180 It's absolutely brilliant. I'm sure there's better 01:11:39.180 --> 01:11:41.979 ones out there, but, you know, this one he chose. 01:11:42.039 --> 01:11:45.680 He made. It's a proper Disney one. It's going 01:11:45.680 --> 01:11:47.840 to have some real sentimental value for all three 01:11:47.840 --> 01:11:49.979 of us that we got to do it. And it's so cool. 01:11:50.979 --> 01:11:52.619 And, yeah, you can take it apart and change the 01:11:52.619 --> 01:11:55.079 crystals to have different colours. Makes a slightly 01:11:55.079 --> 01:11:57.800 different noise. You know, it's brilliant. You'll 01:11:57.800 --> 01:12:00.619 have fun looking at it when we stop recording. 01:12:00.920 --> 01:12:04.859 But, yeah, Star Wars world, absolutely brilliant. 01:12:05.750 --> 01:12:08.189 uh i'm looking at my list because i made a whole 01:12:08.189 --> 01:12:11.090 load of lists of stuff but i think a lot of it 01:12:11.090 --> 01:12:12.949 isn't really cypher related more just talking 01:12:12.949 --> 01:12:16.250 about holidays we can talk about that on the 01:12:16.250 --> 01:12:21.489 next one if people are bothered um yeah what 01:12:21.489 --> 01:12:24.470 else that's it so what have i played i've been 01:12:24.470 --> 01:12:28.010 talking for nearly 40 minutes people don't mind 01:12:28.010 --> 01:12:31.140 that loads of Stuff on the Steam Deck, really. 01:12:31.659 --> 01:12:33.899 Other than I played the Sniper League thing with 01:12:33.899 --> 01:12:35.739 you. I've just been playing on the Steam Deck. 01:12:36.000 --> 01:12:38.600 Oh, I'll tell you what I have done. Oh, go on 01:12:38.600 --> 01:12:40.079 then, go on. I found the charger for the Vita. 01:12:40.859 --> 01:12:43.619 Oh, wow, yes, yes. I've spoken numerous times 01:12:43.619 --> 01:12:46.479 about what I've done to my 3DS. Big middle finger 01:12:46.479 --> 01:12:48.640 to you, Nintendo. I've now done it to my Vita. 01:12:49.859 --> 01:12:53.319 So, you know, turned off the store. So I'm going 01:12:53.319 --> 01:12:56.479 to show you it before you leave. I've gone and 01:12:56.479 --> 01:12:59.270 downloaded... specifically games that you can 01:12:59.270 --> 01:13:01.970 no longer buy. Yeah, 100%. Because they didn't 01:13:01.970 --> 01:13:05.369 have them on the cartridge and the store is now 01:13:05.369 --> 01:13:07.909 gone. The only way to get these if you don't 01:13:07.909 --> 01:13:11.729 already have them is by finding the ROMs. Have 01:13:11.729 --> 01:13:18.029 I ever told you my story about the PSP? No. Now, 01:13:18.029 --> 01:13:20.350 I've got a very soft spot for the PSP. Just... 01:13:20.560 --> 01:13:24.020 You know I like media formats, full stop. I like 01:13:24.020 --> 01:13:27.159 cassettes. UMDs, just like Minidisc, I thought 01:13:27.159 --> 01:13:29.359 were very cool. I loved UMDs. Didn't you get 01:13:29.359 --> 01:13:31.279 Spider -Man, the film, when you brought a PSP? 01:13:31.279 --> 01:13:34.319 You got films, you got all sorts. No, I bought 01:13:34.319 --> 01:13:38.300 my PSP from Littlewoods. Oh, yeah. Catalogue. 01:13:38.300 --> 01:13:39.899 I thought, I'll pay for it monthly. Brilliant. 01:13:40.079 --> 01:13:42.960 And I bought it with... Old school Klarna. Yeah, 01:13:42.979 --> 01:13:45.939 basically. I bought it with Grand Theft Auto. 01:13:46.020 --> 01:13:47.680 It was Vice City Stories that came out on the 01:13:47.680 --> 01:13:48.439 PSP, wasn't it? It would have been Vice City 01:13:48.439 --> 01:13:50.409 Stories. It would have been, yeah, I think. No, 01:13:50.409 --> 01:13:53.090 it might have been Liberty. It wasn't Vice City. 01:13:53.569 --> 01:13:55.949 Maybe it was Liberty. It might have just been 01:13:55.949 --> 01:13:58.090 Grand Theft Auto 3, actually. Really? So we're 01:13:58.090 --> 01:14:00.229 both talking BS. I'm just going to double check. 01:14:00.329 --> 01:14:01.970 By the way, it was... Maybe Liberty City Stories 01:14:01.970 --> 01:14:05.250 is on the Vita. The Vita was after PSP, right? 01:14:06.310 --> 01:14:11.229 Yes, it was. The Vita came after the PSP. I genuinely 01:14:11.229 --> 01:14:12.729 don't know what it was now, and that's going 01:14:12.729 --> 01:14:15.989 to annoy me. Anyway, it was the first GTA that 01:14:15.989 --> 01:14:20.960 came out on the PSP. And it turned up two days 01:14:20.960 --> 01:14:24.920 later, as Littlewoods did, in two big parcels. 01:14:24.939 --> 01:14:26.260 And I thought, what the bloody hell is going 01:14:26.260 --> 01:14:30.319 on here? They charged me once. They sent me two 01:14:30.319 --> 01:14:34.039 copies of Grand Theft Auto, two PSPs. Nice. I 01:14:34.039 --> 01:14:36.140 waited two weeks and no one got in contact with 01:14:36.140 --> 01:14:39.020 me. So I took it up to CEX and traded the extra 01:14:39.020 --> 01:14:41.760 game and the PSP, fully boxed new, for about 01:14:41.760 --> 01:14:46.199 six or seven brand new PSP games. Nice. No one's 01:14:46.199 --> 01:14:49.920 going to question it. But no, I think the PSP 01:14:49.920 --> 01:14:53.359 was brilliant. Yeah, it was nice. I never had 01:14:53.359 --> 01:14:55.659 one. Mark had one, so I had a go on it and stuff. 01:14:56.579 --> 01:14:58.300 There's something about the Vita. It's a nice, 01:14:58.340 --> 01:15:00.119 cute little thing. I don't get hand cramp on 01:15:00.119 --> 01:15:01.680 it. I quite like the weird little analog sticks 01:15:01.680 --> 01:15:03.560 it's got. It's got a touchscreen on the back. 01:15:04.100 --> 01:15:07.680 It had some cool games on it. And the PSP Go 01:15:07.680 --> 01:15:09.399 as well. That was a lovely... It got rid of the 01:15:09.399 --> 01:15:12.699 UMD device, but it was sliding. Yeah, I liked 01:15:12.699 --> 01:15:14.279 that too. Again, I didn't have one. I'd seen 01:15:14.279 --> 01:15:16.340 one. I think an old friend of mine had one of 01:15:16.340 --> 01:15:19.960 those ones that slide up. Yeah, so I'm going 01:15:19.960 --> 01:15:21.819 to have a little go on that throughout the week 01:15:21.819 --> 01:15:23.819 probably, every now and again when I'm not editing. 01:15:23.859 --> 01:15:26.840 That's not a bad idea. But, yeah, that's really 01:15:26.840 --> 01:15:31.380 all the gaming I've done. And then what have 01:15:31.380 --> 01:15:34.279 we watched? Oh, yeah, we watched some random 01:15:34.279 --> 01:15:38.060 sci -fi thing. What was it called? It was Liberty 01:15:38.060 --> 01:15:39.760 City Stories, by the way. It was Liberty City, 01:15:39.760 --> 01:15:43.039 yeah. What's the sci -fi show we watched? Star 01:15:43.039 --> 01:15:44.680 Trek? Have you ever heard of that, Star Trek? 01:15:45.149 --> 01:15:49.529 No. Sounds crap. Really? I'm doing this? Hardly 01:15:49.529 --> 01:15:51.930 Shakespeare is it. Accessing library computer 01:15:51.930 --> 01:15:56.930 data. Ridiculous. So we're only messing Star 01:15:56.930 --> 01:16:01.170 Trek. Strange New Worlds is back. Oh, Nurse Chapel, 01:16:01.289 --> 01:16:03.850 girl next door. Finished. Done. Yeah, she's still 01:16:03.850 --> 01:16:05.789 a dickhead though. I don't care. Actually, to 01:16:05.789 --> 01:16:07.970 be fair, less of a dickhead this time. I was 01:16:07.970 --> 01:16:10.229 actually a little bit less of a dickhead. More 01:16:10.229 --> 01:16:12.989 kind of like... Spock is a bit like not getting 01:16:12.989 --> 01:16:15.810 the idea that I still completely on his team. 01:16:16.109 --> 01:16:19.210 I'm taking sides. I'm on his team. Oh, a hundred 01:16:19.210 --> 01:16:21.689 percent. But to be honest, if he's not about, 01:16:21.829 --> 01:16:26.949 she's free for me. Wait till I tell the poll. 01:16:27.590 --> 01:16:30.029 Oh, she can fuck off. Though I'd like to say, 01:16:30.109 --> 01:16:31.710 so it does a recap at the beginning. Oh, Spock 01:16:31.710 --> 01:16:35.819 can have her. Well, yeah. So. This is obviously 01:16:35.819 --> 01:16:37.739 season three, episode one of Strange New Worlds. 01:16:37.819 --> 01:16:39.979 So they do a little recap. Yep. And then they 01:16:39.979 --> 01:16:42.600 instantly go into the show. He had time to do 01:16:42.600 --> 01:16:44.899 his hair between the recap and the show. They 01:16:44.899 --> 01:16:47.460 didn't film this on the same day. No, they didn't. 01:16:47.500 --> 01:16:49.600 I instantly went, his hair's not disheveled anymore. 01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:52.840 And he's still a super sexy captain. So good 01:16:52.840 --> 01:16:55.020 looking. He's so good looking. I'm so jealous 01:16:55.020 --> 01:16:56.800 of that guy. It's so unfair. It's so unfair. 01:16:56.920 --> 01:17:01.020 He's such amazing hair. Oh, God, he's so dreamy. 01:17:01.020 --> 01:17:03.399 Imagine if him and Alan Richardson had a baby. 01:17:05.199 --> 01:17:10.800 Be a hench beautifully haired. We'll throw Gladiator 01:17:10.800 --> 01:17:15.159 Giant in there. Three beautiful men and a baby. 01:17:15.819 --> 01:17:18.800 I think, well, imagine being in a sandwich between 01:17:18.800 --> 01:17:21.800 those two. Oh my God. We've talked about that 01:17:21.800 --> 01:17:26.460 before. Oh, sorry. Old ground. Pegged by them. 01:17:29.920 --> 01:17:33.279 So, what happens? Absolutely phenomenal. Slight 01:17:33.279 --> 01:17:35.359 spoiler. I'm trying not to spoil too much for 01:17:35.359 --> 01:17:37.279 everybody, but we are going to now talk about 01:17:37.279 --> 01:17:40.140 Strange New Worlds Season 3, Episode 1. If you 01:17:40.140 --> 01:17:42.600 don't want to know anything about it, skip this 01:17:42.600 --> 01:17:44.279 bit. Yeah, just head to the outro. Yeah, just 01:17:44.279 --> 01:17:48.800 go to the outro. I was genuinely, genuinely upset 01:17:48.800 --> 01:17:52.300 that they were going to kill Erica. Oh, yeah. 01:17:52.479 --> 01:17:55.119 I was seriously worried about it. No, no, no, 01:17:55.180 --> 01:17:58.029 no, no, no, no, no. I was generally worried about 01:17:58.029 --> 01:18:01.470 all of those, those guys getting killed. So happily 01:18:01.470 --> 01:18:05.829 that didn't happen yet. Yet that we know of, 01:18:05.909 --> 01:18:10.850 but yeah, just the whole thing, the, the gone. 01:18:10.989 --> 01:18:13.250 So we actually finally get to see the gone without 01:18:13.250 --> 01:18:17.270 the masks on the new versions. Yeah. And sorry, 01:18:17.869 --> 01:18:20.609 that's the dog moving the microphone. I liked 01:18:20.609 --> 01:18:24.630 it. I think they were really cool design. I think. 01:18:25.770 --> 01:18:28.250 I don't know, there was something ever so slightly 01:18:28.250 --> 01:18:31.029 off about them, but I don't know if it was kind 01:18:31.029 --> 01:18:35.689 of a little bit of a tilt of the hat, tip of 01:18:35.689 --> 01:18:38.909 the hat to the classic Gorn from the original 01:18:38.909 --> 01:18:40.729 series, which was just a man running around in 01:18:40.729 --> 01:18:43.010 a rubber suit. They kind of felt a little bit 01:18:43.010 --> 01:18:48.189 clunky in parts. Not all of it. Yeah. Especially 01:18:48.189 --> 01:18:50.010 a bit when they're flying the ships chasing after 01:18:50.010 --> 01:18:54.699 them. As I say, it may have just been a stylistic 01:18:54.699 --> 01:18:57.520 choice, but I think the design of them was very 01:18:57.520 --> 01:19:01.899 good. Yeah, I like the design. Looking back at 01:19:01.899 --> 01:19:04.859 it in my mind now, a lot of CGI, I can't remember 01:19:04.859 --> 01:19:07.199 if there's any practical elements to them, but 01:19:07.199 --> 01:19:08.399 I know I just said to you I'm not going to say 01:19:08.399 --> 01:19:10.140 anything about episode two, but there is a very 01:19:10.140 --> 01:19:13.979 short moment in episode two where you see a Gorn. 01:19:14.329 --> 01:19:17.470 And it looks practical by the way its head moves. 01:19:17.649 --> 01:19:19.770 Interesting. So it kind of steps to the side 01:19:19.770 --> 01:19:22.609 and the head kind of goes zonk. Right. Like it's 01:19:22.609 --> 01:19:25.770 on a gimbal going zonk. So I wonder if they have 01:19:25.770 --> 01:19:29.109 got a practical Gorn, almost Teenage Mutant Ninja 01:19:29.109 --> 01:19:32.689 Turtle style face. Yeah. I wonder if they have. 01:19:33.390 --> 01:19:35.689 But I don't think it was in that episode, if 01:19:35.689 --> 01:19:37.970 there is. Okay. Because a lot of it fell asleep. 01:19:38.029 --> 01:19:41.029 But it wasn't rubbish. They clearly used budget. 01:19:41.149 --> 01:19:43.489 They've got budget for this. There's money here. 01:19:43.609 --> 01:19:47.029 All the CGI, spot on. The story's spot on. I'm 01:19:47.029 --> 01:19:49.170 very happy with the conclusion to this two -part 01:19:49.170 --> 01:19:53.470 episode. I just, Scotty was really funny and 01:19:53.470 --> 01:19:56.109 so I can never remember the lady who's in with 01:19:56.109 --> 01:19:59.029 him, his teacher, who we've had previously with 01:19:59.029 --> 01:20:02.189 a deep voice. She was great too. Every single 01:20:02.189 --> 01:20:04.770 character in it is brilliant. There isn't a single 01:20:04.770 --> 01:20:06.649 one that I don't like. There doesn't seem anyone 01:20:06.649 --> 01:20:10.109 that seems forced. There's no kind of like subplot. 01:20:10.430 --> 01:20:14.130 for some shitty writer putting in their beliefs 01:20:14.130 --> 01:20:16.750 outside of the show. There's none of that in 01:20:16.750 --> 01:20:19.430 Strange New Worlds. At least not because I've 01:20:19.430 --> 01:20:20.829 seen the second episode. There's nothing in the 01:20:20.829 --> 01:20:22.609 first two episodes of any of that. The writing 01:20:22.609 --> 01:20:26.430 team behind it have been super solid. It genuinely 01:20:26.430 --> 01:20:28.750 feels like the Star Trek I knew and grew up with. 01:20:28.869 --> 01:20:32.840 It's phenomenal. I still think, and this is a 01:20:32.840 --> 01:20:35.180 problem with all sci -fi, okay, this is not a 01:20:35.180 --> 01:20:36.739 Star Trek problem, and I'm going to say that 01:20:36.739 --> 01:20:38.920 now because I don't think it's fair to criticise 01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:42.079 Star Trek on something that all sci -fi does. 01:20:42.579 --> 01:20:48.600 But all sci -fi seems to have these lizard race, 01:20:48.859 --> 01:20:53.699 these lizard aliens, but you never see any fucker 01:20:53.699 --> 01:20:57.180 flying the ship or doing routine maintenance 01:20:57.180 --> 01:21:00.619 of the ship, yet... Every single Starfleet ship, 01:21:00.760 --> 01:21:02.880 you've got people polishing the wall, polishing 01:21:02.880 --> 01:21:05.619 the screens, fixing the warp drive, going up 01:21:05.619 --> 01:21:08.520 and down conduits, repairing turbo shafts and 01:21:08.520 --> 01:21:11.340 shit like that. Yeah, all of these ones. And 01:21:11.340 --> 01:21:15.199 the problem is they then make the lizards almost, 01:21:15.319 --> 01:21:20.000 fair like I said, clunky. I cannot see how a 01:21:20.000 --> 01:21:26.439 Gorn has manufactured a massive flying warship. 01:21:26.439 --> 01:21:28.949 Yeah. that has the ability of all the things 01:21:28.949 --> 01:21:34.090 that it has, and more. Okay, so my perspective 01:21:34.090 --> 01:21:37.409 of that, well... With no one controlling it either. 01:21:37.590 --> 01:21:40.270 No one's starving the bit they're in, because 01:21:40.270 --> 01:21:42.789 they're in what they're classing as the digestive 01:21:42.789 --> 01:21:46.350 chamber. So I think they're arrogant enough and 01:21:46.350 --> 01:21:48.529 powerful enough, because they're way more powerful 01:21:48.529 --> 01:21:51.489 than starving. That's very true, yes. To think, 01:21:51.670 --> 01:21:53.329 these guys aren't going to escape. They're getting 01:21:53.329 --> 01:21:56.510 dissolved by stomach acid. Like... you'd think 01:21:56.510 --> 01:22:00.210 they might have a janitor walking around. I totally 01:22:00.210 --> 01:22:03.569 get what you're saying. Like, you've got to suspend 01:22:03.569 --> 01:22:06.050 your disbelief. But, and it's like, they're also 01:22:06.050 --> 01:22:08.770 a kind of, I think there's an element of hive 01:22:08.770 --> 01:22:12.069 mind -esque to them, like Borg. Well, very much 01:22:12.069 --> 01:22:14.270 so. That's the impression I get from it, particularly 01:22:14.270 --> 01:22:16.909 with how they defeat them. But they then promptly 01:22:16.909 --> 01:22:19.029 shoot themselves in the foot a little bit. So 01:22:19.029 --> 01:22:22.050 Uhura, I don't think they use their eyes anymore. 01:22:22.229 --> 01:22:25.680 I think they just use EM and everything. We then 01:22:25.680 --> 01:22:27.319 go straight back to the ship. Oh, for the ships. 01:22:27.439 --> 01:22:31.380 And there's a screen showing all the transporter 01:22:31.380 --> 01:22:35.279 buffer. Oh, fuck, yeah, you're right, yeah. Okay. 01:22:35.880 --> 01:22:38.720 Yeah, I didn't pick up on that. Maybe the geeky 01:22:38.720 --> 01:22:41.140 Gorns are allowed to stay using their eyes. Yeah. 01:22:41.420 --> 01:22:43.619 And they get made fun of for being eye readers. 01:22:44.109 --> 01:22:47.869 I don't know. We make fun of the people we have 01:22:47.869 --> 01:22:52.649 with glasses. Four eyes. You can see. Yeah. Sight 01:22:52.649 --> 01:22:57.670 enabled. Sight enabled. But they're saying it 01:22:57.670 --> 01:23:04.229 in Gorn, so they're going... It was a... What 01:23:04.229 --> 01:23:07.149 a welcome back to season three. It was so nice 01:23:07.149 --> 01:23:08.869 to watch some Star Trek again, because I haven't 01:23:08.869 --> 01:23:11.090 watched any Star Trek since we stopped doing 01:23:11.090 --> 01:23:16.550 it. No, I haven't. Apart from I've watched some 01:23:16.550 --> 01:23:19.850 of the cartoon Lower Decks, which I haven't finished 01:23:19.850 --> 01:23:22.670 yet. I was so excited for it and I still haven't 01:23:22.670 --> 01:23:25.189 finished it. And we've said, or I have said this 01:23:25.189 --> 01:23:30.109 no end of times on this show. I will show more 01:23:30.109 --> 01:23:33.630 value behind a show with how I feel about watching 01:23:33.630 --> 01:23:37.930 the next episode. Lower Decks, I had no wish 01:23:37.930 --> 01:23:40.520 to go, I'm going to binge this. It was just, 01:23:40.520 --> 01:23:43.239 oh, I'll watch another one another time. This, 01:23:43.359 --> 01:23:45.840 I want to, even though it's quarter to 11, 10 01:23:45.840 --> 01:23:47.619 to 11, whatever time it is, eight minutes to 01:23:47.619 --> 01:23:50.399 11, I've got to be up at six, but I'm still considering 01:23:50.399 --> 01:23:53.300 when I go home, watching the next episode. Yeah, 01:23:53.319 --> 01:23:55.539 yeah, yeah. Because I'm so excited about it. 01:23:55.659 --> 01:23:57.600 Yeah. And that just speaks volumes, doesn't it? 01:23:57.739 --> 01:24:01.039 Yeah, it does. And that's how we felt. We finished 01:24:01.039 --> 01:24:02.340 it and was like, well, I've got to go to bed. 01:24:02.460 --> 01:24:04.180 And Ryan was like, oh, it's just happened. I 01:24:04.180 --> 01:24:05.560 was like, no, it seems like we're going to watch 01:24:05.560 --> 01:24:07.779 it tomorrow. And we did. Next day, we watched 01:24:07.779 --> 01:24:11.600 it. So glad I did. Can't wait to talk to you 01:24:11.600 --> 01:24:13.659 about the second episode. Lots to talk about 01:24:13.659 --> 01:24:17.640 on that. Particularly Mugwatch for episode two. 01:24:17.720 --> 01:24:20.340 On point. Return of Mugwatch. I'm so happy about 01:24:20.340 --> 01:24:22.300 it. We've got a lot of mugs to talk about next 01:24:22.300 --> 01:24:25.960 episode. We'll have War of the Worlds and Mugwatch 01:24:25.960 --> 01:24:30.460 to do. So if anyone's into the old school sci 01:24:30.460 --> 01:24:32.479 -fi show when we used to be the Untitled Trek 01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:36.699 show, Mugwatch will be back next episode. Because 01:24:36.699 --> 01:24:40.069 I know that's what you're all after. Yeah. don't 01:24:40.069 --> 01:24:41.670 really say much more about it we've talked so 01:24:41.670 --> 01:24:45.409 much in this episode already but this is a brilliant 01:24:45.409 --> 01:24:48.189 i want to say return to form for the new worlds 01:24:48.189 --> 01:24:50.470 but it never lost it never lost it's just still 01:24:50.470 --> 01:24:55.250 going up and up and up and i just want it to 01:24:55.250 --> 01:24:58.050 go on forever i want a 10 season strange new 01:24:58.050 --> 01:25:01.140 world i would love it to go on forever I know 01:25:01.140 --> 01:25:03.340 it's not going to. I know they've renewed it 01:25:03.340 --> 01:25:05.560 for, I think, one more season. I've heard four 01:25:05.560 --> 01:25:07.119 because they said season four and they hadn't 01:25:07.119 --> 01:25:09.159 even released season three yet. It may even be 01:25:09.159 --> 01:25:11.659 season four and then season five. I know that 01:25:11.659 --> 01:25:14.439 they've released that information. As sad as 01:25:14.439 --> 01:25:20.920 I will be, I'm actually partly glad because we've 01:25:20.920 --> 01:25:23.659 known and seen what Paramount does to things. 01:25:24.520 --> 01:25:29.560 And realistically, they need to go out on a high 01:25:29.560 --> 01:25:32.319 note. We don't want to get to a point like Lower 01:25:32.319 --> 01:25:36.579 Decks has, which is it doesn't feel like it used 01:25:36.579 --> 01:25:39.159 to. It doesn't feel like the same quality. Those 01:25:39.159 --> 01:25:40.699 first couple of seasons we watched and went, 01:25:40.779 --> 01:25:42.859 oh my God, this is fucking so funny and brilliant. 01:25:43.500 --> 01:25:45.899 And I don't want that to happen to this. I don't 01:25:45.899 --> 01:25:48.960 want it to start. dragging its feet or feeling 01:25:48.960 --> 01:25:52.539 like it's got to bring in certain things to appease 01:25:52.539 --> 01:25:54.979 people or it's got to do certain storylines i 01:25:54.979 --> 01:25:57.319 want it to stay fresh i want it to stay just 01:25:57.319 --> 01:26:00.199 exploring the world of early federation which 01:26:00.199 --> 01:26:02.960 is what it's doing and it's brilliant and i think 01:26:02.960 --> 01:26:05.060 the way that writers are doing at the moment 01:26:05.060 --> 01:26:06.800 that's not saying anything negative against them 01:26:06.800 --> 01:26:09.039 because they've built a brilliant world that 01:26:09.039 --> 01:26:12.479 we're really enjoying i just can't see them going 01:26:12.479 --> 01:26:15.359 past season five and keeping that going yeah 01:26:15.359 --> 01:26:17.699 yeah I know we used to expect more back in the 01:26:17.699 --> 01:26:21.279 day. Back in the 80s, 90s, we expected more, 01:26:21.460 --> 01:26:25.460 and we got that. Yeah. We don't get that anymore. 01:26:25.699 --> 01:26:27.939 There's too many projects, too much money involved. 01:26:29.479 --> 01:26:32.800 Imagine now if they did a 24 -episode season 01:26:32.800 --> 01:26:35.859 of Star Trek. Imagine that. How wicked that would 01:26:35.859 --> 01:26:38.199 be. I'd understand, obviously, the budget would 01:26:38.199 --> 01:26:39.960 go, but you could tell from the old ones it was 01:26:39.960 --> 01:26:41.699 the same. But I think everyone would love that. 01:26:41.899 --> 01:26:47.079 I would love it if it wasn't... serialized so 01:26:47.079 --> 01:26:50.899 if it wasn't episodes 1 to 24 are all linked 01:26:50.899 --> 01:26:53.680 together which is what they would do yeah they 01:26:53.680 --> 01:26:55.960 would just do season 1 to 24 and it's just one 01:26:55.960 --> 01:26:59.180 long -running storyline whereas you look at tng 01:26:59.180 --> 01:27:04.000 once my particular favorite very rarely does 01:27:04.000 --> 01:27:07.680 a storyline continue past one or two episodes 01:27:07.680 --> 01:27:10.279 yes you've got the underlying stories like the 01:27:10.279 --> 01:27:15.029 borg and picard's health but even then It's so 01:27:15.029 --> 01:27:17.369 peppered and dropped about and speckled into 01:27:17.369 --> 01:27:21.569 the show. It's not a continuous thing. And Discovery, 01:27:21.930 --> 01:27:24.350 that's one of my problems with it. Every episode, 01:27:24.430 --> 01:27:26.210 although you've got this slightly different thing 01:27:26.210 --> 01:27:29.590 happening, it's still just that same story from 01:27:29.590 --> 01:27:32.050 episode one. So you're saying you do or you don't 01:27:32.050 --> 01:27:39.229 want that? I don't want that. I will stand on 01:27:39.229 --> 01:27:42.670 this tower until I'm literally shot and killed. 01:27:43.840 --> 01:27:47.739 early south park is amazing because every episode 01:27:47.739 --> 01:27:50.579 was random and different and as soon as it went 01:27:50.579 --> 01:27:52.300 to that approach of we're just going to do an 01:27:52.300 --> 01:27:55.159 ongoing story like the whole tigra d farms thing 01:27:55.159 --> 01:27:58.279 it fell apart and as soon as they started doing 01:27:58.279 --> 01:28:00.880 random episodes again straight back up there 01:28:00.880 --> 01:28:03.220 yeah and that's what strangely well okay we've 01:28:03.220 --> 01:28:06.279 got an underlying story like the whole he knows 01:28:06.279 --> 01:28:07.840 he's going to die well they've laid off that 01:28:07.840 --> 01:28:09.960 a bit now haven't they but even then in the last 01:28:09.960 --> 01:28:12.460 two seasons it wasn't an every episode thing 01:28:12.460 --> 01:28:14.859 or even if it was it was just a glimpse at the 01:28:14.859 --> 01:28:17.399 very end with him vaguely remembering it as it 01:28:17.399 --> 01:28:20.859 faded out of the episode it was brilliant well 01:28:20.859 --> 01:28:22.979 like episode two again i said i wouldn't talk 01:28:22.979 --> 01:28:25.460 about episode two the only link to the episode 01:28:25.460 --> 01:28:29.279 before is one of the characters and it says at 01:28:29.279 --> 01:28:31.779 the beginning what happened yeah And that's it. 01:28:31.840 --> 01:28:33.539 And then it's an episode on its own and it's 01:28:33.539 --> 01:28:35.619 his own thing. And it's like, yeah, okay, you've 01:28:35.619 --> 01:28:37.859 still got the stuff because you've still got 01:28:37.859 --> 01:28:41.500 like character things like Spark and other ones, 01:28:41.579 --> 01:28:44.039 you know. So they do have the ongoing character 01:28:44.039 --> 01:28:47.579 arcs all flowing through. But all of them did 01:28:47.579 --> 01:28:49.479 that. Yeah. Because you're building the characters. 01:28:50.560 --> 01:28:53.060 It isn't like, oh, you have to watch the episode 01:28:53.060 --> 01:28:54.260 before this and you have to watch the episode 01:28:54.260 --> 01:28:56.859 before that. You can go and watch any random 01:28:56.859 --> 01:28:59.180 episode of TNG like we used to and just enjoy 01:28:59.180 --> 01:29:02.520 it and not have to give a fuck about what happened 01:29:02.520 --> 01:29:04.859 in any other episode. And excluding maybe the 01:29:04.859 --> 01:29:10.859 time travel episode and the legal episode, same 01:29:10.859 --> 01:29:14.340 with Strange New Worlds. Yeah. Those two in particular, 01:29:14.380 --> 01:29:16.260 I don't think you could. It's better to have 01:29:16.260 --> 01:29:19.159 seen the episode before. But even if you haven't, 01:29:19.159 --> 01:29:23.569 they're still great. Yeah, exactly. So, that's 01:29:23.569 --> 01:29:26.810 it. Star Trek Strange New Worlds. Go bloody watch 01:29:26.810 --> 01:29:33.949 it. Okay, right. Next episode, we're going to 01:29:33.949 --> 01:29:36.569 be talking about War of the Worlds, 1953. The 01:29:36.569 --> 01:29:38.010 original. We are going to do that this time. 01:29:38.210 --> 01:29:39.970 And we'll probably talk about episode two of 01:29:39.970 --> 01:29:41.609 Strange New Worlds. Maybe even episode three 01:29:41.609 --> 01:29:43.189 as well. Maybe we'll just do two. Yeah, possibly. 01:29:43.470 --> 01:29:47.630 We'll just see how the episode goes. So, that's 01:29:47.630 --> 01:29:51.300 it. Next time. Royal of the Worlds, 1953. There 01:29:51.300 --> 01:29:54.659 isn't a, whatever it's called, guess the intro 01:29:54.659 --> 01:29:56.859 at the start of this episode. I'm telling you, 01:29:56.920 --> 01:29:59.500 DJ.
