WEBVTT

00:00:02.960 --> 00:00:06.219
Leon, we have an assignment. You've got terrible

00:00:06.219 --> 00:00:08.800
handwriting. I haven't written anything since

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:11.140
I was at school. Maybe more than a dozen inside.

00:00:12.259 --> 00:00:16.000
The doors now blow the bulge. Yes, sir. I just

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:18.960
made a joke. And, uh, you know... Stop talking.

00:00:21.120 --> 00:00:23.359
Elevation and heart rate detected. Would you

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:27.019
like a pill? No. Time travel has not yet been

00:00:27.019 --> 00:00:31.059
invented. But 30 years from now, it will have

00:00:31.059 --> 00:00:34.039
been. You guys haven't seen my wife. You've seen

00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:42.500
my wife. My special angel. Hello and welcome

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:45.299
to the Untitled Sci -Fi Show. I'm Rob, that's

00:00:45.299 --> 00:00:49.159
Tom. No, I'm not. Oh shit, who are you? I'm Dave.

00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:54.979
What, Dave? I'm Dave Bob Montgomery Jim. Dave

00:00:54.979 --> 00:01:01.270
Bob Montgomery Jim III. Yeah. Not like the last

00:01:01.270 --> 00:01:03.729
two intros we've done on this show. We haven't

00:01:03.729 --> 00:01:05.390
rolled straight in because we started talking

00:01:05.390 --> 00:01:06.689
about something and I've just whacked record

00:01:06.689 --> 00:01:09.489
on. That's true. You didn't whack one off today.

00:01:10.189 --> 00:01:15.790
Yesterday. Fair enough. As of recording. Have

00:01:15.790 --> 00:01:17.829
you been watching your Unify and looking like,

00:01:17.890 --> 00:01:20.450
oh shit, look, I looked at that yesterday. No,

00:01:20.590 --> 00:01:24.510
no, no. VPN, VPN, VPN. Enter authorization code.

00:01:27.460 --> 00:01:30.459
Right, it's another Guess the Intro. Guess the

00:01:30.459 --> 00:01:33.500
Intro! How do you think you got on? Oh, I got

00:01:33.500 --> 00:01:36.379
six out of six, mate. Yeah, you reckon? Oh, bang

00:01:36.379 --> 00:01:38.519
on, mate. I absolutely got six out of six. I

00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:40.900
know I did. Okay, well then, let's play the first

00:01:40.900 --> 00:01:43.560
one. Oh, by the way, literally no one sent in

00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:47.000
anything. Oh, dickheads. No one did, so I think

00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:48.819
everyone's getting kicked out of the winner's

00:01:48.819 --> 00:01:51.200
lounge. It might just be you and me in there.

00:01:51.900 --> 00:01:54.680
The winner's lounge is now closed. Yeah, now

00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.840
closed for refurbishment. Crime does not entail

00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:05.659
death. Thought crime is death. 1984. 1984. It's

00:02:05.659 --> 00:02:09.419
a very difficult read. It's a very tough wank.

00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:13.199
Yeah, no, it is. But there's one even worse than

00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:15.280
that. I'm trying to think. I start these sentences

00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:17.520
and it's like, why have I not even thought of

00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.860
what I'm actually going to say? Because we record

00:02:19.860 --> 00:02:21.719
them so late. We record everything so late all

00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:23.879
the time. So we're always, our brains are already

00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:26.659
tired. Yeah, there was another book long. The

00:02:26.659 --> 00:02:33.300
same ilk of 1984. Oh, my God. By Aldous Huxley.

00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:37.620
Yes, Aldous Huxley. In fact, if I looked up...

00:02:37.620 --> 00:02:41.960
Is it Aldley Huxley? Aldous Huxley? I'm going

00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:43.419
to have to... Do you want me to pause? Yeah,

00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:47.060
go on then. Brave New World is the book by Aldous

00:02:47.060 --> 00:02:52.580
Huxley. Fuck me. Like 1984, it's an incredibly

00:02:52.580 --> 00:02:56.419
tough kind of read. And I think I read it first

00:02:56.419 --> 00:02:58.520
as a teenager and there's like this entire section

00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:01.560
of, like basically these kids are in school.

00:03:01.740 --> 00:03:07.099
And I mean kids. The bell rang. Sex time. Sex

00:03:07.099 --> 00:03:10.780
time? Yeah. Basically the kids have sex. Oh.

00:03:11.180 --> 00:03:14.900
It's just, this is weird. We're just a make population.

00:03:15.379 --> 00:03:19.840
And this is non -Swatch territory. Like it. Yeah.

00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:23.509
Next one. It was 1904 by the way, yes. When you

00:03:23.509 --> 00:03:27.389
open your mind to the impossible, sometimes you

00:03:27.389 --> 00:03:30.750
find the truth. Right, a second visit from this

00:03:30.750 --> 00:03:34.389
show. That was Fringe. Yeah, a bit easier that

00:03:34.389 --> 00:03:36.969
one than the first time I put Fringe on. I did

00:03:36.969 --> 00:03:38.229
a really obscure... Yeah, the first one you did

00:03:38.229 --> 00:03:40.509
was so obscure. Yeah, because it was just him

00:03:40.509 --> 00:03:42.289
yelling. He was saying character, but he was

00:03:42.289 --> 00:03:44.930
yelling in the supermarket or something. It's

00:03:44.930 --> 00:03:46.750
a really funny scene if you've seen the show.

00:03:47.289 --> 00:03:49.909
You see, I've only seen bits and pieces. I love

00:03:49.909 --> 00:03:51.250
it. I love Fringe. I've watched it all the way

00:03:51.250 --> 00:03:54.039
through twice. Oh, I must give it a proper try

00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:55.599
then. If only we did that with Supernatural.

00:03:56.599 --> 00:04:01.680
To the lake! I'm going to take a little swim.

00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:05.919
Yeah, when you listen to it, it sounds like you've

00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:08.620
doctored the sound to that. But when you hear

00:04:08.620 --> 00:04:10.379
it on the show, I swear it doesn't sound like

00:04:10.379 --> 00:04:14.900
Stranger Things. Stranger Things. I haven't doctored

00:04:14.900 --> 00:04:17.779
it. No, it just sounds like it is, doesn't it?

00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:22.480
I've shortened the blank space between. But I

00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:24.300
couldn't make it too close together because it

00:04:24.300 --> 00:04:27.339
didn't sound even remotely right. But yeah, it's,

00:04:27.339 --> 00:04:31.160
I think it's season three. There's Dust, that's

00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:33.699
Dustin. And then there's one of the other kids

00:04:33.699 --> 00:04:35.139
and then the ginger head girl and they're sat

00:04:35.139 --> 00:04:37.620
getting told off by all the parents. Yes. Basically.

00:04:38.339 --> 00:04:41.779
Great show. I really do like, ooh, dear, oh dear.

00:04:42.100 --> 00:04:44.160
Sorry, I wasn't on mute, ladies and gentlemen.

00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.360
It wasn't picked up. Ooh, that's a black mark.

00:04:47.740 --> 00:04:49.959
I was not pure. The teleporter insisted on your

00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:52.550
purity. I was not pure. Bloody great film and

00:04:52.550 --> 00:04:54.889
I must, must, must watch the original at some

00:04:54.889 --> 00:04:57.050
point. The Fly. The Fly, yeah. It's been a long

00:04:57.050 --> 00:04:59.129
time since I've seen that. Long, long time. Geena

00:04:59.129 --> 00:05:06.149
Davis and... I can't... Oh no, there goes the

00:05:06.149 --> 00:05:08.509
brain out of my nose. Jurassic Park. Yes, I know.

00:05:08.730 --> 00:05:11.149
I know. It's just completely gone. What can I

00:05:11.149 --> 00:05:14.550
tell you? Ian Malcolm. Ian Malcolm. Whatever

00:05:14.550 --> 00:05:16.730
happens, we can't let the new guy find out about

00:05:16.730 --> 00:05:19.029
our powers. What do we do if he finds out? We

00:05:19.029 --> 00:05:22.279
kill him. And say Jeff Goldblum. Yeah, yeah.

00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:25.620
Misfits. Misfits, yeah. It's funny because I

00:05:25.620 --> 00:05:27.759
put that in. I think you might have messaged

00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:29.699
saying that you hated Misfits at some point this

00:05:29.699 --> 00:05:32.399
week. Someone said something to me about Misfits.

00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:34.579
No, it wasn't me. Yeah, being rubbish, I was

00:05:34.579 --> 00:05:36.579
thinking, oh, that was in the... I did the filming

00:05:36.579 --> 00:05:39.360
for a couple of episodes of Misfits. I enjoyed

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:43.660
that. First season in particular. And the kid

00:05:43.660 --> 00:05:45.959
who thinks he hasn't got any powers and then

00:05:45.959 --> 00:05:48.680
finds out he does actually have a power. Yeah,

00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:51.209
I think... To an extent, it's one of these series

00:05:51.209 --> 00:05:55.370
that it had a really good, strong premise, and

00:05:55.370 --> 00:05:59.790
it may have gone on a bit too long. I think season

00:05:59.790 --> 00:06:01.509
two was good, and then they changed everyone

00:06:01.509 --> 00:06:05.930
on season three, apart from, I think, the Irish

00:06:05.930 --> 00:06:08.009
guy. I think he might have been the only returning

00:06:08.009 --> 00:06:10.769
character. Oh, really? Yeah, I think so. But

00:06:10.769 --> 00:06:12.949
then he went on to do Umbrella Academy and other

00:06:12.949 --> 00:06:16.189
stuff. He's a fucking big -time bad guy now.

00:06:17.780 --> 00:06:20.000
Yeah, well, no, that's fair enough. With me saying

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:22.779
all that, I don't even know his name. Oh, this

00:06:22.779 --> 00:06:24.980
is annoying. Sorry, my phone just got into battery

00:06:24.980 --> 00:06:27.240
saver, so it just kicked me out of every single

00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:31.300
app I was in. Oh, for fuck's sake. Hang on. Oh,

00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:34.939
Jesus. This is like fucking clown music. Now

00:06:34.939 --> 00:06:37.100
I don't even know how many we've done. There's

00:06:37.100 --> 00:06:41.060
one left. So, what would you little maniacs like

00:06:41.060 --> 00:06:48.240
to do first? Best film ever. Weird science. Yeah,

00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:49.980
my dad loves this one. It's bloody brilliant.

00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:52.399
Yeah. I remember watching it as a kid. It's like,

00:06:52.500 --> 00:06:54.800
this is fucking brilliant. Why do I feel funny

00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.279
in my pants? This is brilliant. She's really

00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:02.240
fit, eh? Oh, yeah. What a film. What a film.

00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:03.959
Really, really good film. Something we probably

00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:06.420
should cover at some point if it wasn't so misogynist.

00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:09.420
That's not even a real word. I think I even remotely

00:07:09.420 --> 00:07:11.899
care about that on this show. Yeah, true. Tits.

00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:15.740
Tits, fannies. So, yeah, well done. You gave

00:07:15.740 --> 00:07:17.480
a single one. You and me in the lounge again

00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:22.779
this week. Just us. Bit of Dido, maybe. Oh, yeah.

00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:32.360
So, mister, what's been going on? Do you want

00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:34.680
to hear about things I've watched or things I've

00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:37.790
gamed? Do some watch first, then we go to games.

00:07:37.790 --> 00:07:40.870
Okay, so I hate football. You know I hate football.

00:07:41.310 --> 00:07:44.129
I like playing football. I used to enjoy a little

00:07:44.129 --> 00:07:45.889
bit of Championship Manager back in the days

00:07:45.889 --> 00:07:48.709
of Championship Manager 2. But I cannot stand

00:07:48.709 --> 00:07:50.790
watching football. It drives me fucking mad.

00:07:50.889 --> 00:07:54.389
It's boring as hell. I started Ted Lasso. Yeah?

00:07:54.569 --> 00:07:58.290
Because it just looks funny. And I'm on episode

00:07:58.290 --> 00:08:02.649
three, and I'm blown away by it. It's this perfect

00:08:02.649 --> 00:08:08.339
mix of comedy. emotion. You can't really sum

00:08:08.339 --> 00:08:11.360
it up really easy. A lot of the Apple TV series

00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.180
I've found this. Same with Severance when I introduced

00:08:14.180 --> 00:08:17.379
you to it. It's really hard to explain. What

00:08:17.379 --> 00:08:19.100
am I meant to be doing with this? Am I meant

00:08:19.100 --> 00:08:21.639
to be laughing at this? Am I meant to be sad

00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:24.040
at this? Yeah, it's all of them. And it is all

00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.519
of it. And I love the fact, I mean, spoilers

00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:28.240
for anyone that hasn't watched it. I love the

00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:30.259
fact that he's baking the biscuits. It's just

00:08:30.259 --> 00:08:33.039
perfect. I knew it was coming as well. You know

00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:36.149
what this all stems from? It was an advert that

00:08:36.149 --> 00:08:39.210
he did. Was it? Yeah, it was a Super Bowl advert.

00:08:39.370 --> 00:08:42.629
He was the Tottenham manager. Come over from

00:08:42.629 --> 00:08:45.990
America. I think it was Tottenham he was managing,

00:08:46.169 --> 00:08:51.710
yeah. And he was being that character. Not understanding

00:08:51.710 --> 00:08:54.490
football. It was great, yeah. I'm absolutely

00:08:54.490 --> 00:08:56.669
loving it. Just absolutely love it. I love the

00:08:56.669 --> 00:08:59.710
bloke that plays Nate. He's absolutely fantastic.

00:09:00.070 --> 00:09:05.529
He just acts the role. My opinion? Yes. It's

00:09:05.529 --> 00:09:09.149
brilliant. It's really good. There's literally

00:09:09.149 --> 00:09:13.190
one episode in the whole lot of them that I didn't

00:09:13.190 --> 00:09:15.850
like. Only one. And it's because it's an agenda

00:09:15.850 --> 00:09:19.269
episode. Oh. Just one. It's like they had a guest

00:09:19.269 --> 00:09:21.350
writer for it. My dad stopped watching the entire

00:09:21.350 --> 00:09:23.309
series because of that one. Oh, for fuck's sake.

00:09:23.529 --> 00:09:26.929
The most recent series, he found it that egregious

00:09:26.929 --> 00:09:30.230
that he refused to watch anymore. But, you know,

00:09:30.330 --> 00:09:34.539
that's old people. I also didn't like it. Daily

00:09:34.539 --> 00:09:36.580
Mail readers. I always watched it and was like,

00:09:36.659 --> 00:09:41.740
come on. Where has this come from, guys? You've

00:09:41.740 --> 00:09:43.440
got a special writing for this. And it's only

00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:44.980
one episode because every episode after that,

00:09:45.019 --> 00:09:47.200
brilliant again. It's like literally they just

00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:52.340
jump the shark. It's beautifully written. It's

00:09:52.340 --> 00:09:54.600
just very, very well done. You might like Stick

00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:57.580
with Owen Wilson. That's on the Apple TV Stick.

00:09:57.620 --> 00:10:00.110
It's a golf version. Oh, okay. But I mean, he's

00:10:00.110 --> 00:10:02.470
not nice. Oh, fine. He's a knobhead. Because

00:10:02.470 --> 00:10:04.269
there's another one that's just been released

00:10:04.269 --> 00:10:06.870
on Disney called Chad something. Chad Powers.

00:10:07.190 --> 00:10:09.970
Yeah. And it's basically Mrs. Doubtfire, but

00:10:09.970 --> 00:10:12.049
American football. Yeah, so he... Something to

00:10:12.049 --> 00:10:15.110
do with he fucks up in a big game. Yeah, so he

00:10:15.110 --> 00:10:16.830
puts some... Becomes a student instead. Yeah,

00:10:16.830 --> 00:10:18.830
he becomes a college football player instead.

00:10:18.909 --> 00:10:21.169
Yeah. I don't think I'll watch that one. I'm

00:10:21.169 --> 00:10:23.570
not really into that. But I'm halfway through

00:10:23.570 --> 00:10:25.610
Stick. Well, I got all the way up to how many

00:10:25.610 --> 00:10:27.429
episodes were out at the time, like four episodes,

00:10:27.649 --> 00:10:29.330
and then I've waited for them all to come out.

00:10:29.370 --> 00:10:30.730
If they're all out now, then I'll watch it again.

00:10:30.909 --> 00:10:33.429
Well, I think there's three seasons of Ted Lasso,

00:10:33.429 --> 00:10:35.370
isn't there, at the moment? Yeah, and there's

00:10:35.370 --> 00:10:37.110
a fourth one, and there's another one coming

00:10:37.110 --> 00:10:39.730
any day. Apple do seem to be doing a good job

00:10:39.730 --> 00:10:42.649
on Apple TV. There does seem to be a lot that

00:10:42.649 --> 00:10:44.710
they're producing. It doesn't come up often.

00:10:45.580 --> 00:10:47.700
It's not something like Netflix where I get an

00:10:47.700 --> 00:10:49.720
email every other day. By the way, this has just

00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:52.080
come in or Prime. We've just got this. I think

00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.179
it's because Apple just literally go, oh yeah,

00:10:54.220 --> 00:10:56.559
we've got a new series for you. And then suddenly

00:10:56.559 --> 00:10:58.960
all you hear about it for the next year is that

00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:00.879
because it's so good. Because Apple stuff is

00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:04.019
Apple stuff. Netflix is not just Netflix. It's

00:11:04.019 --> 00:11:06.240
loads of other places. That's why they bring

00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:07.779
all these people in. But everything on Apple,

00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:10.200
as far as I can tell, they've published. Apple

00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:13.259
Originals. They've put their name on it. You

00:11:13.259 --> 00:11:14.940
know, they're obviously wanting to be good. The

00:11:14.940 --> 00:11:16.960
only critique I'd have about the Apple TV Plus

00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:21.399
thing is it's not kid stuff. That, I think, is

00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:25.799
worth it. There is some kid stuff. It's just

00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:28.240
really what your kid's into. That's the difficulty.

00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.700
I mean, there was a talking tractor on there,

00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:36.279
T quite liked for quite a while. He has somewhat,

00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:40.600
and I will give them this, the original Fraggle

00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.779
Rocks on there. And then Apple TV's version of

00:11:43.779 --> 00:11:47.159
Fraggle Rock is on there. And it's very, very

00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:49.519
close to the original. They did a really good

00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:51.559
job of going, I'm just going to carry this on.

00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:54.200
Yeah. So I was pretty happy with that. But yeah,

00:11:54.259 --> 00:11:56.559
I know what you mean. Kids aren't interested

00:11:56.559 --> 00:11:58.700
in Charlie Brown. And that's the sort of stuff

00:11:58.700 --> 00:12:01.100
they did. Yeah. It's almost like we've done kid

00:12:01.100 --> 00:12:04.740
stuff for the parents. Anyway, so there's Ted

00:12:04.740 --> 00:12:07.759
Lasso. I'm nearly at the last episode of Strange

00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:11.700
New Worlds. Kay wanted me to go back because

00:12:11.700 --> 00:12:16.320
she was meant to be doing her homework. And so

00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:19.179
I was like, I'll put Strange New Worlds on. And

00:12:19.179 --> 00:12:21.820
I was just finishing whichever episode it was.

00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:25.279
And Gem came down and said, right, you are doing

00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:28.059
your homework, aren't you? And she quietly admits,

00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:30.960
actually, no, I'm quite into what Tom's watching.

00:12:31.740 --> 00:12:36.539
It's like, oh, okay. And then she saw the recap

00:12:36.539 --> 00:12:40.350
for the one where we. Said she's a bitch and

00:12:40.350 --> 00:12:42.330
why would you go up and put your hand under something

00:12:42.330 --> 00:12:44.289
that's blatantly going to stick a needle in you

00:12:44.289 --> 00:12:46.789
and you don't know how deep. She wanted to watch

00:12:46.789 --> 00:12:48.330
that one, but I think that's killed it for her

00:12:48.330 --> 00:12:50.590
now because that one really is very Trekking

00:12:50.590 --> 00:12:53.669
the Trek. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And to be fair, it's

00:12:53.669 --> 00:12:55.269
also quite terrifying that there's a man running

00:12:55.269 --> 00:12:57.429
around with no eyeballs. Yeah, it's a spooky

00:12:57.429 --> 00:13:01.629
one, yeah, yeah. So, yeah, okay. I tried to restart

00:13:01.629 --> 00:13:04.929
Lower Decks the latest season. Couldn't get into

00:13:04.929 --> 00:13:08.070
it. I'm so going for it. I don't know if it was

00:13:08.070 --> 00:13:09.750
just because I wasn't in the mood and I was trying

00:13:09.750 --> 00:13:13.669
to push myself. But like you, I'm gutted. Utterly,

00:13:13.669 --> 00:13:16.269
utterly gutted. I wish I was in the mood to watch

00:13:16.269 --> 00:13:19.370
it. I wish I was. I don't know what happened

00:13:19.370 --> 00:13:21.629
between the break, between the two. Maybe it

00:13:21.629 --> 00:13:23.070
was just learning that it was going to be the

00:13:23.070 --> 00:13:25.169
last one. And I was like, ugh. And you don't

00:13:25.169 --> 00:13:27.190
want it to be the last one. So maybe you avoid

00:13:27.190 --> 00:13:28.929
watching it so it doesn't come to an end sort

00:13:28.929 --> 00:13:32.860
of thing. I just think the writing's lazy. I

00:13:32.860 --> 00:13:34.799
think it's literally, the risers have gone, well,

00:13:34.820 --> 00:13:36.340
if we're not getting another series, fuck you.

00:13:37.059 --> 00:13:40.620
And it just became, yeah, I don't know. And then

00:13:40.620 --> 00:13:42.500
finally, me and Jem have started watching, we're

00:13:42.500 --> 00:13:46.840
halfway through Smile 2, which is a great film.

00:13:46.940 --> 00:13:49.639
I've managed to get halfway through. Yeah, we

00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:51.299
loved the first one. Didn't you see the cinema?

00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:54.220
I saw it at the cinema. Well, two. Yeah, well,

00:13:54.259 --> 00:13:57.759
both. And yeah, we're halfway through and we'll

00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:00.019
finish the rest at the end of this week, probably.

00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:05.350
And it's just really good. sequel to what I thought

00:14:05.350 --> 00:14:08.610
was an enjoyable good horror film that was fairly

00:14:08.610 --> 00:14:12.090
new fairly good idea that hadn't been just trope

00:14:12.090 --> 00:14:15.610
after trope after trope in some ways I'd say

00:14:15.610 --> 00:14:17.990
Smile 2 is better than the first but I don't

00:14:17.990 --> 00:14:22.230
know I think that's a very much your own opinion

00:14:22.230 --> 00:14:24.049
thing because I think a lot of people got a lot

00:14:24.049 --> 00:14:26.750
of love for the first one and the whole dead

00:14:26.750 --> 00:14:29.129
cat birthday present thing and all of that but

00:14:29.129 --> 00:14:33.059
I think they both have their own Own bits to

00:14:33.059 --> 00:14:36.159
it. But that's everything I've watched. Then

00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:39.559
gaming. Nothing modern. I'm still in two minds

00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:42.019
about Battlefield 6. I get to the point where

00:14:42.019 --> 00:14:45.419
it's in my cart. Should I click buy? I walk away.

00:14:45.940 --> 00:14:48.899
I then see some TikTok videos. I watch some YouTube

00:14:48.899 --> 00:14:52.679
videos. And it seems so 50 -50 out there at the

00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:55.399
moment. If you just concentrate on the console

00:14:55.399 --> 00:14:58.559
side, and I've tried avoiding watching videos

00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:01.799
that have been like the PC players. All I'm seeing

00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:05.200
is 50 % of people saying they've ruined this

00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:06.919
game. What are they doing? Why have they done

00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:09.139
this? And then the other 50 are going, this is

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:11.720
the best Battlefield yet. Don't know what people

00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:13.720
are moaning about. I honestly don't know what

00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:15.480
to make my mind of it. Battlefield has always

00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:18.620
done that because everyone's so used to playing

00:15:18.620 --> 00:15:21.299
Call of Duty. Battlefield is not Call of Duty.

00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:25.399
We've said it on this show. We've said it fucking

00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.700
forever since we played the Bad Company games.

00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:33.929
You play the objective. Yes. Killing is a massive

00:15:33.929 --> 00:15:36.549
part of it. You have tickets that you need to

00:15:36.549 --> 00:15:39.269
run down, and tickets represent respawns, but

00:15:39.269 --> 00:15:43.330
you win by getting the points. If you have four

00:15:43.330 --> 00:15:46.590
out of the five objectives, it's going to be

00:15:46.590 --> 00:15:48.690
easy to kill that number down. You run down their

00:15:48.690 --> 00:15:51.429
tickets, as well as their tickets running down

00:15:51.429 --> 00:15:53.950
when you kill someone. So you could never capture

00:15:53.950 --> 00:15:59.730
a point, and if you kill 250 of them before they're...

00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:02.000
You know, they've claimed the tickets, which

00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:04.419
they wouldn't be able to do. I think you can

00:16:04.419 --> 00:16:06.879
still win. I think the thing that's somewhat

00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:11.159
worrying me is... i'm not a fan of games that

00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:13.679
specifically set up for snipers and that type

00:16:13.679 --> 00:16:16.360
of gameplay because what i find is whether it's

00:16:16.360 --> 00:16:18.299
call of duty whether it's battlefield you name

00:16:18.299 --> 00:16:21.700
it you just get someone who is stupidly good

00:16:21.700 --> 00:16:24.059
they manage to get somewhere where the developers

00:16:24.059 --> 00:16:25.960
don't think they're going to be able to get to

00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:28.919
and then boom you're in your spawn spot you take

00:16:28.919 --> 00:16:31.399
one step and you're dead one step you're dead

00:16:32.110 --> 00:16:35.889
And I hate it. I absolutely hate that. And Battlefield

00:16:35.889 --> 00:16:39.210
6 has got ladders, so you can get places now

00:16:39.210 --> 00:16:41.830
that you're not meant to be able to get to, specifically

00:16:41.830 --> 00:16:44.190
because you've got a ladder to do it. Well, the

00:16:44.190 --> 00:16:48.230
recon can't have it. No, but if you work with

00:16:48.230 --> 00:16:51.190
someone, like we do, you know you're going to

00:16:51.190 --> 00:16:54.669
end up like that. And then secondly, I think

00:16:54.669 --> 00:16:56.649
the thing that kind of blew my mind was watching

00:16:56.649 --> 00:16:59.820
people run around a map, taking out... tens of

00:16:59.820 --> 00:17:03.500
people using a shotgun at a distance yeah almost

00:17:03.500 --> 00:17:06.740
like a fucking sniper rifle it's like uh yeah

00:17:06.740 --> 00:17:09.599
is that right i used to do that in world war

00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:11.660
z there was they patched it out now there was

00:17:11.660 --> 00:17:14.000
a shotgun that worked like you had a slug didn't

00:17:14.000 --> 00:17:18.980
it and it had um a silencer on it too which was

00:17:18.980 --> 00:17:21.480
just incredible so i spent a lot of time with

00:17:21.480 --> 00:17:23.539
that very long way shotgun with the slimes running

00:17:23.539 --> 00:17:25.920
so yeah so i'm still in two minds over well i

00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:28.869
have it i've played two games It was on my list,

00:17:28.910 --> 00:17:31.789
I'll talk about it now. It's on the PS5. I got

00:17:31.789 --> 00:17:34.509
a PS5 because of Xbox putting their prices up

00:17:34.509 --> 00:17:38.230
and, you know, it's ridiculous. Yeah. So it's

00:17:38.230 --> 00:17:40.730
cheaper if you do end up getting it to play together

00:17:40.730 --> 00:17:43.950
together on the PS5. Talking about Xbox very

00:17:43.950 --> 00:17:46.670
quickly. Yeah. One of the Microsoft people have

00:17:46.670 --> 00:17:50.190
come forward and said the next Xbox, expect it

00:17:50.190 --> 00:17:55.740
to be purely premium. What do you mean? They

00:17:55.740 --> 00:17:58.119
claim it's going to be the most premium of consoles

00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:02.160
that comes out. Expensive, they mean. From the

00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:05.740
sound of it, the way it's been worded makes you

00:18:05.740 --> 00:18:08.640
think we're going to be heading for a four -figure.

00:18:09.339 --> 00:18:12.960
The thing is, it just means I won't get it. It'll

00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:15.690
be a computer. Yeah. I mean, at that point, I

00:18:15.690 --> 00:18:17.289
won't get it, and then I'll have to wait for

00:18:17.289 --> 00:18:19.230
what PlayStation do, and they'll be more expensive,

00:18:19.309 --> 00:18:21.009
because PlayStations normally are more expensive,

00:18:21.069 --> 00:18:23.269
and then I'm probably just going to be priced

00:18:23.269 --> 00:18:26.190
out of buying a console. Well, that's... It's

00:18:26.190 --> 00:18:29.349
the reason I've just got that computer. I was

00:18:29.349 --> 00:18:30.849
never in a million years ever going to be able

00:18:30.849 --> 00:18:33.569
to save up money for a computer. And I've completely,

00:18:33.670 --> 00:18:36.240
by luck, got a... Now, apparently it's four years

00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:39.980
old, but to me it's brand new. My computer was

00:18:39.980 --> 00:18:42.000
10 years old, and then I was using your laptop.

00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:43.980
But the thing is, is you and I are both people

00:18:43.980 --> 00:18:47.900
who accept that a game can be enjoyable run on

00:18:47.900 --> 00:18:51.240
medium settings at 1080p. Yeah. We're not people

00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:56.299
that need to run it at 8K, 120 frames a second,

00:18:56.339 --> 00:18:58.599
sorry, 240 frames a second now for a 240 hertz

00:18:58.599 --> 00:19:02.269
screen. We don't care at ultra -high settings.

00:19:02.750 --> 00:19:05.390
No, exactly. I've never cared about that. I want

00:19:05.390 --> 00:19:07.269
the game to be played. I want it to look good,

00:19:07.309 --> 00:19:11.329
but I don't care about it looking lifelike. And

00:19:11.329 --> 00:19:14.089
I think that's, unfortunately, where people end

00:19:14.089 --> 00:19:17.490
up, don't they? It's going to be tough for me

00:19:17.490 --> 00:19:21.910
to be buying £1 ,000 worth of Xbox. That's a

00:19:21.910 --> 00:19:25.109
very, very big fucking ask. And I really do think

00:19:25.109 --> 00:19:28.019
that there'll be the people... People on PC are

00:19:28.019 --> 00:19:29.859
really, at that point, going to be like, dude,

00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:32.640
why aren't you buying PC? You can spend £1 ,000

00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:35.619
on Xbox. £1 ,000 of PC components is probably

00:19:35.619 --> 00:19:37.640
the same as £1 ,000 worth of Xbox. And let's

00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:42.000
face it, next year, PS5 gets Halo. We are in

00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:45.240
a world now, games are coming off consoles. They're

00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:47.880
not sticking around to one console anymore. Even

00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:52.920
main branded bloody content isn't. And it's going

00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:57.599
to come to PC. It's almost, in my mind, is this

00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:01.599
the great reset is this time for actually to

00:20:01.599 --> 00:20:05.400
say shall i actually not bother saving for a

00:20:05.400 --> 00:20:08.740
new console now is my new console actually a

00:20:08.740 --> 00:20:11.839
gaming pc in the future and in two years time

00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:14.180
am i just going to say i'm going to put a chunk

00:20:14.180 --> 00:20:17.220
of money down on a semi -decent pc and that'll

00:20:17.220 --> 00:20:19.980
be that and what's it going to be like for our

00:20:19.980 --> 00:20:22.539
boys when they ask for an xbox for christmas

00:20:23.429 --> 00:20:25.990
And you'll be like, I don't have £1 ,000 that

00:20:25.990 --> 00:20:29.269
I can buy you a game console for Christmas. That's

00:20:29.269 --> 00:20:32.490
gone. I got my N64 I got for Christmas. My Mega

00:20:32.490 --> 00:20:34.170
Drive I got for Christmas. My Game Boy I got

00:20:34.170 --> 00:20:36.789
for Christmas. Yeah, it's a different world,

00:20:36.829 --> 00:20:38.809
isn't it? That's completely gone. The closest

00:20:38.809 --> 00:20:41.250
you're going to get is a Switch. And knowing

00:20:41.250 --> 00:20:44.009
our boys, that'll be entertainment for about

00:20:44.009 --> 00:20:46.690
one year, but then they'll want to actually get

00:20:46.690 --> 00:20:49.930
into proper gaming. And it's harsh to say that

00:20:49.930 --> 00:20:51.930
the Switch can't do proper gaming. It can. We

00:20:51.930 --> 00:20:54.869
know the Switch 2 is... vast improvement but

00:20:54.869 --> 00:21:00.789
on the most part i think kids are wanting playstation

00:21:00.789 --> 00:21:03.430
they're wanting xbox i feel like what it'll be

00:21:03.430 --> 00:21:05.950
like for us in this house we've said about this

00:21:05.950 --> 00:21:08.829
privately it'll be one console that we all share

00:21:08.829 --> 00:21:11.970
yeah and maybe one christmas the family present

00:21:11.970 --> 00:21:15.430
will be a family all three of us we're all gonna

00:21:15.430 --> 00:21:17.940
have this present together this is our present

00:21:17.940 --> 00:21:20.460
for the year you know three controllers and xbox

00:21:20.460 --> 00:21:22.740
or whatever yeah we have a control for all of

00:21:22.740 --> 00:21:25.079
us today although i'd say we're both fairly good

00:21:25.079 --> 00:21:29.359
about secondhand stuff yeah and i think our kids

00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:32.539
hopefully will understand money i know we've

00:21:32.539 --> 00:21:35.839
got k started quite early on when she was younger

00:21:35.839 --> 00:21:38.539
about understanding what money is and how important

00:21:38.539 --> 00:21:42.059
it is so maybe our kids just will be the kids

00:21:42.059 --> 00:21:44.140
and the generation that understands a second

00:21:44.140 --> 00:21:49.289
-hand console isn't a bad thing um so you were

00:21:49.289 --> 00:21:51.049
still going on about battlefield 6 before i threw

00:21:51.049 --> 00:21:55.410
in yeah well i've got it on the ps5 as we were

00:21:55.410 --> 00:21:58.849
saying uh i don't particularly like the ps5 controller

00:21:58.849 --> 00:22:02.690
for fpss and i've got some money for my birthday

00:22:02.690 --> 00:22:07.900
from my parents and i did a government um survey

00:22:07.900 --> 00:22:11.759
and they gave me 35 quid in vouchers nice yeah

00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:14.200
all i had to do was answer six questions about

00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:16.480
climate change as if i was like the climate change

00:22:16.480 --> 00:22:24.680
so there's like this nikon third party controller

00:22:24.680 --> 00:22:29.140
yeah it is an xbox style but works for ps5 and

00:22:29.140 --> 00:22:34.099
the only thing it can't do is the haptic feedback

00:22:34.099 --> 00:22:36.980
we're actually playing Battlefield 6 with haptics

00:22:36.980 --> 00:22:38.819
on the triggers I actually found a bit annoying

00:22:38.819 --> 00:22:43.920
so I'm not going to miss that but it can do things

00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:46.059
like you can change the sticks like on the Xbox

00:22:46.059 --> 00:22:49.819
controller that I've got and you can make the

00:22:49.819 --> 00:22:52.819
triggers shallower again which my controller

00:22:52.819 --> 00:22:55.059
can do which I do for shooters I don't like to

00:22:55.059 --> 00:22:56.859
have to bring my finger all the way down to bring

00:22:56.859 --> 00:22:59.150
the gun up you can just do a very light tap on

00:22:59.150 --> 00:23:01.589
it. Oh, is it the Nacon Revolution by any chance?

00:23:01.809 --> 00:23:03.490
Yeah. I'm only getting it because it's quite

00:23:03.490 --> 00:23:09.089
expensive. Because I've got the vouchers and

00:23:09.089 --> 00:23:12.910
money. And to be fair, that's what I would have

00:23:12.910 --> 00:23:15.289
paid for the Elite 2 controller if I hadn't had

00:23:15.289 --> 00:23:18.730
vouchers. Yeah. So actually, if it's the same

00:23:18.730 --> 00:23:20.410
quality as the Elite 2, and the Elite 2 was a

00:23:20.410 --> 00:23:22.250
great controller, I just don't feel I use it

00:23:22.250 --> 00:23:24.789
to the benefit that I could have. I do nowadays.

00:23:24.910 --> 00:23:26.630
I have changed a lot of it. But I don't use the

00:23:26.630 --> 00:23:28.859
flappy paddles. They just annoy me. Yeah, I never

00:23:28.859 --> 00:23:31.400
put those on. I did change the sticks, and I

00:23:31.400 --> 00:23:35.700
do have some... I do play, for example, on first

00:23:35.700 --> 00:23:38.099
-person shooters, I quite often change the trigger

00:23:38.099 --> 00:23:40.880
to the smallest amount of movement, so it's just

00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:42.700
as soon as you click it, rather than having to

00:23:42.700 --> 00:23:44.200
go all the way into fire. That's what I do, yeah,

00:23:44.220 --> 00:23:46.380
I have that all the time. Not for the trigger

00:23:46.380 --> 00:23:50.140
so much, I have it for the iron sights. Good

00:23:50.140 --> 00:23:51.440
shout, good shout. Yeah, that's where I put it.

00:23:51.900 --> 00:23:56.819
So, basically, Battlefield 6 again. So, controller

00:23:56.819 --> 00:23:59.119
things aside, I played two games. That's all

00:23:59.119 --> 00:24:00.839
I've had time to do since I got it on my birthday.

00:24:01.059 --> 00:24:04.579
Yep. Two games. The first game, I got fucking

00:24:04.579 --> 00:24:08.359
annihilated. Lost. We lost. I got annihilated.

00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:11.519
I think I killed maybe two people. It felt so

00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:13.819
very different. Because I'd gone from Xbox to

00:24:13.819 --> 00:24:15.640
PlayStation, I wasn't ready for it. Then I played

00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:17.619
the second game, and I came third in the lobby.

00:24:18.009 --> 00:24:21.349
Oh, nice. So we still lost because my team weren't

00:24:21.349 --> 00:24:23.690
playing the fucking objective. But, you know,

00:24:23.710 --> 00:24:26.569
I only had a few more deaths than kills. It wasn't

00:24:26.569 --> 00:24:29.329
that bad a ratio. I felt pretty good. Got loads

00:24:29.329 --> 00:24:31.950
of levels up. Had a much better time the second

00:24:31.950 --> 00:24:34.089
time around. And, of course, we're turning off

00:24:34.089 --> 00:24:36.970
cross -play because when we played the demo with

00:24:36.970 --> 00:24:39.690
cross -play on to start with and fuck me, we

00:24:39.690 --> 00:24:41.529
got annihilated. I'm only playing other PlayStation

00:24:41.529 --> 00:24:43.829
and Xbox players. I think cross -play off just

00:24:43.829 --> 00:24:45.809
means it doesn't let you play against PC players

00:24:45.809 --> 00:24:49.400
as far as I can tell. Correct. It seems a fairy

00:24:49.400 --> 00:24:52.000
kind of option. Although you can stick a keyboard

00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:54.460
and mouse into a PS5. And an Xbox, so you could

00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:56.819
have people doing that. Which I'm sure they do.

00:24:57.900 --> 00:24:59.539
Very, very quickly then, as I know we've been

00:24:59.539 --> 00:25:01.519
chatting a while, completed Doom 1 and 2 again

00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:04.359
this week because they're nice short games. Started

00:25:04.359 --> 00:25:06.559
Rise of the Triad, the original Rise of the Triad.

00:25:07.259 --> 00:25:09.279
It's just not a mark on Doom. It's a great game.

00:25:09.400 --> 00:25:11.460
Very, very funny moments. I don't know. Do you

00:25:11.460 --> 00:25:13.900
know what Rise of the Triad was? No, I know the

00:25:13.900 --> 00:25:18.829
name. It's a game by Apogee and... It's more

00:25:18.829 --> 00:25:22.849
like a modern version of Wolfenstein around the

00:25:22.849 --> 00:25:27.390
same time that Doom was, but it's just much more

00:25:27.390 --> 00:25:31.539
kind of gross. killing nazis left right and center

00:25:31.539 --> 00:25:34.059
you blow them up and you get eyeballs drop down

00:25:34.059 --> 00:25:36.579
the screen and ludicrous gibbs is one of the

00:25:36.579 --> 00:25:39.119
common things that comes up uh it's a great game

00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:41.640
but it's not mark on doom the level design of

00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:44.079
doom this what unfortunately rise of the tribe

00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:45.640
feels like it's just like it feels like you've

00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:48.759
got a giant square and they've just built a really

00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:51.880
basic maze inside it whereas doom kind of felt

00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:54.339
like you had depth i know technically doom's

00:25:54.339 --> 00:25:58.690
engine was inferior to the build engine for those

00:25:58.690 --> 00:26:01.049
of you that know what that is whereas you couldn't

00:26:01.049 --> 00:26:02.910
actually build a level that you go under yourself

00:26:02.910 --> 00:26:05.809
it was all on one level basically and you basically

00:26:05.809 --> 00:26:09.450
built up and down but no kind of holes or tunnels

00:26:09.450 --> 00:26:11.269
and stuff like that was the build you could but

00:26:11.269 --> 00:26:14.720
um yeah just it Beats Rise of the Triad. And

00:26:14.720 --> 00:26:16.420
finally, there's a game on my phone I've started

00:26:16.420 --> 00:26:19.440
playing again called Mini Motorways. And it's

00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:22.440
a little map and basically how it plays is you

00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:24.539
get a big building and a little building to start

00:26:24.539 --> 00:26:27.490
with and you join them by a road. Then... Another

00:26:27.490 --> 00:26:28.950
building appears and you've got to join that

00:26:28.950 --> 00:26:30.529
on the road. And by the end of it, you end up

00:26:30.529 --> 00:26:32.509
with this giant road network. You've got to build

00:26:32.509 --> 00:26:34.809
and control. And if the traffic starts building

00:26:34.809 --> 00:26:36.869
up, that's the end of the game. So you've got

00:26:36.869 --> 00:26:38.650
to build roundabouts and you've got to put traffic

00:26:38.650 --> 00:26:40.930
lights in or build motorways, hence the name.

00:26:41.230 --> 00:26:43.150
And you've got to make sure the traffic is always

00:26:43.150 --> 00:26:45.250
flowing constantly. And they're all different

00:26:45.250 --> 00:26:47.390
colours as well. So red goes to red ones, blue

00:26:47.390 --> 00:26:50.289
goes to blue bases and so on. It gets very confusing

00:26:50.289 --> 00:26:53.450
very quickly. I watched, you know, Lemmy is,

00:26:53.549 --> 00:26:57.819
you must know Lemmy is that. The Ace of Spades.

00:26:58.819 --> 00:27:01.920
He's a comedian, isn't he? He used to have a

00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:04.140
TV show, didn't he? I don't know who you're talking

00:27:04.140 --> 00:27:07.740
about. I think he's a Scottish comedian. He used

00:27:07.740 --> 00:27:10.160
to have a TV show. Now he does some streaming

00:27:10.160 --> 00:27:12.519
on Twitch and stuff. I've got no idea who you're

00:27:12.519 --> 00:27:15.380
talking about. He did this, I think it was City

00:27:15.380 --> 00:27:18.559
Skylines, he was doing a playthrough of it. And

00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:22.839
you can put yourself into the eyes of the people

00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:25.519
in the city. Right. So he was playing it and

00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:27.920
then he popped into a bus to do a bus tour. And

00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:29.799
he's doing, it's like a one minute long clip

00:27:29.799 --> 00:27:31.579
and he's pretending to be the bus driver. He's

00:27:31.579 --> 00:27:34.180
pretending to be a mayor going around in a bus

00:27:34.180 --> 00:27:37.500
tour. And hearses kept driving past. Oh, I've

00:27:37.500 --> 00:27:40.180
seen this clip. He's killed his entire town.

00:27:40.180 --> 00:27:43.619
He's like, I'm loving driving around. What's

00:27:43.619 --> 00:27:46.039
going on? And his sewage failed, didn't it? The

00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:49.779
whole city went from like 17 ,000 to 200 or something.

00:27:49.779 --> 00:27:51.880
To 900 he was left with. All in the space of

00:27:51.880 --> 00:27:53.970
time that he was doing a bus tour. doing this

00:27:53.970 --> 00:27:58.009
little bus tour. Yes, I saw the clip of it. Oh,

00:27:58.009 --> 00:27:59.869
it's so funny. And this is my son driving around

00:27:59.869 --> 00:28:01.670
and, oh, look, there's a hearse. It just means

00:28:01.670 --> 00:28:03.450
that my healthcare system's working properly

00:28:03.450 --> 00:28:05.269
and the bodies are being moved around properly.

00:28:05.890 --> 00:28:08.150
Oh, there's another hearse. It's working properly.

00:28:08.630 --> 00:28:11.049
And then you're in Zoom and it's like, what's

00:28:11.049 --> 00:28:15.609
happened? Oh, does everyone hate me? Yeah. I

00:28:15.609 --> 00:28:18.269
saw the clip of that. That was very funny. It

00:28:18.269 --> 00:28:22.319
was funny, yeah. That's it. 20 minutes? Blimey,

00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:27.500
that was your longest one yet. Well done. You

00:28:27.500 --> 00:28:31.000
say it like it's a bad thing. No, you can talk

00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:32.779
as long as you want. You can talk as long as

00:28:32.779 --> 00:28:34.440
you want. Okay, well, we're going to move on

00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:37.180
to Planet of the Apes then. So reasons why that's

00:28:37.180 --> 00:28:43.039
a good series, I feel. It's not. Right, okay,

00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:44.740
so what have I done? We've already spoke about

00:28:44.740 --> 00:28:48.160
Battlefield 6. Megabonk, still. Still playing

00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:51.650
that, enjoying it. That's the games. I played,

00:28:51.690 --> 00:28:54.130
as I said, two games of that and a little bit

00:28:54.130 --> 00:28:55.990
of Mega Monk. I've not had any time to do anything

00:28:55.990 --> 00:28:58.250
else. Welcome to Bear and Hood. Yeah, I've finished

00:28:58.250 --> 00:29:01.569
Monster Red Guy. Thank God. I'm so glad that's

00:29:01.569 --> 00:29:04.650
over. Gemma's just watched it as well. She's

00:29:04.650 --> 00:29:07.990
quite traumatised by it. It was rough. I mean,

00:29:08.049 --> 00:29:09.809
it was one of those things that you kind of,

00:29:09.849 --> 00:29:13.069
you don't want to watch it. As I said, couldn't

00:29:13.069 --> 00:29:15.170
eat my dinner. Don't want to watch it, but you

00:29:15.170 --> 00:29:18.309
do walk around Ikea thinking, hmm. Could I put

00:29:18.309 --> 00:29:22.789
my box of vulvas in there? Yeah, it's like, well,

00:29:22.910 --> 00:29:27.829
they haven't done great leather work there. We

00:29:27.829 --> 00:29:31.049
needed to finish it so we could say it was done.

00:29:31.250 --> 00:29:34.390
So it would disappear from being on the preview

00:29:34.390 --> 00:29:36.289
of Netflix when it's highlighted on the Apple

00:29:36.289 --> 00:29:39.089
TV. So as soon as it, yeah, so we were both glad

00:29:39.089 --> 00:29:41.710
that was done. And it got fucking weird. It like,

00:29:41.789 --> 00:29:47.500
but it really was quite dramatized. Like the

00:29:47.500 --> 00:29:49.500
other two, when you go on the Wikipedia for it,

00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:52.980
the other two that they did were very good. I

00:29:52.980 --> 00:29:55.519
was just going to say, you just went into that.

00:29:55.619 --> 00:30:00.500
When you start feeling sorry for Ed Garn, you

00:30:00.500 --> 00:30:04.019
know it's been dramatised. I said that to you,

00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:07.680
didn't I? You did. I texted you saying, God's

00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:10.660
making me feel sorry for this fucking guy. Yeah.

00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:14.250
The other ones, they felt like they were... in

00:30:14.250 --> 00:30:18.430
some realism and you weren't like constantly

00:30:18.430 --> 00:30:21.950
wikipediaing characters who were in it are finding

00:30:21.950 --> 00:30:24.069
out what they were really like whereas this one

00:30:24.069 --> 00:30:26.130
i was finding with every single character like

00:30:26.130 --> 00:30:28.470
the kind of love interest he has was apparently

00:30:28.470 --> 00:30:32.170
nothing like how it's displayed in the show um

00:30:32.170 --> 00:30:34.730
you know about him having all these interactions

00:30:34.730 --> 00:30:37.190
and there's a whole episode which is all in his

00:30:37.190 --> 00:30:40.170
head that's actually quite fine i guess i guess

00:30:40.170 --> 00:30:42.329
that was the case because he was like talking

00:30:42.329 --> 00:30:45.980
to his people through his um his radio. But yeah,

00:30:45.980 --> 00:30:47.380
there was just quite a lot of it. I was like,

00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:51.059
actually, from what I remember, like he was only

00:30:51.059 --> 00:30:53.960
actually found guilty of killing two people.

00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:56.839
Yes, I think so. You know, and he wouldn't admit

00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:00.240
to doing any of it because he was insane. Because

00:31:00.240 --> 00:31:02.920
he was schizophrenic. According to him, he had

00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:04.920
no idea he'd done any of it. So they were saying

00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:07.519
that he killed like 40 or whatever people and

00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:10.180
dug up a hundred things. Like in the show, he

00:31:10.180 --> 00:31:13.549
openly admitting to digging them up. But this

00:31:13.549 --> 00:31:16.289
is the problem, isn't it, with things like biopics.

00:31:16.490 --> 00:31:18.269
I always used to call it biopics, and it's not,

00:31:18.329 --> 00:31:20.190
is it? It's biopic. Biopics, as far as I can

00:31:20.190 --> 00:31:24.650
tell, yeah. The dramatisation, they just feel

00:31:24.650 --> 00:31:26.509
like they have to do it because they feel like

00:31:26.509 --> 00:31:29.470
people aren't going to watch it otherwise. So

00:31:29.470 --> 00:31:35.049
the film The Imitation Game, which was the story

00:31:35.049 --> 00:31:39.390
of the person that cracked... The Nazi Code.

00:31:40.269 --> 00:31:42.430
I'm going to look it up on IMDb very quickly

00:31:42.430 --> 00:31:44.809
because I feel bad that I can't remember his

00:31:44.809 --> 00:31:46.930
name. Benedict Cucumberbatch. Benedict Cucumber

00:31:46.930 --> 00:31:51.410
Snatch, yes. Imitation Game. I don't know why

00:31:51.410 --> 00:31:53.250
this still makes me laugh. I'm such a fucking

00:31:53.250 --> 00:31:57.710
child. The Imitation Game, that's weird. Alan

00:31:57.710 --> 00:32:03.589
Turing. They make out he's all of these things

00:32:03.589 --> 00:32:09.160
in that film and And oddly, I think it's his

00:32:09.160 --> 00:32:13.299
nephew comes in my parents' shop. And they've

00:32:13.299 --> 00:32:15.380
talked about the film before. And they said,

00:32:15.420 --> 00:32:18.259
oh, so the film. And he said, yeah, utterly disgusting.

00:32:18.940 --> 00:32:21.980
Followed history, basically. But the amount of

00:32:21.980 --> 00:32:24.099
stuff they put in about the homosexuality and

00:32:24.099 --> 00:32:26.579
all of that, utter rub. And he was saying about

00:32:26.579 --> 00:32:27.960
things like there's a scene at the end where

00:32:27.960 --> 00:32:32.059
the police officer. arrests him and he's they're

00:32:32.059 --> 00:32:34.380
fairly brutal to him for being a homosexual and

00:32:34.380 --> 00:32:38.220
all of that and he's like well actually no for

00:32:38.220 --> 00:32:41.500
the what the family was told was by him before

00:32:41.500 --> 00:32:44.940
he obviously died was a actually the police officers

00:32:44.940 --> 00:32:48.000
were all very actually decent people very good

00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:52.410
to him yeah so it's just because of dramatization

00:32:52.410 --> 00:32:55.390
it can really ruin it and it makes you think

00:32:55.390 --> 00:32:57.589
different things and we funny again had nearly

00:32:57.589 --> 00:32:59.809
said funny enough there uh oh sure i just said

00:32:59.809 --> 00:33:03.150
it um i had a conversation with my old man he

00:33:03.150 --> 00:33:05.250
is obsessed with youtube he barely watches tv

00:33:05.250 --> 00:33:07.730
anymore this is a man that used to record nazi

00:33:07.730 --> 00:33:10.470
nazi nazi nazi nazi programs daily mail reader

00:33:10.470 --> 00:33:19.640
um birds of a feather our parents car show car

00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:22.019
show hitler car show car show yeah it was my

00:33:22.019 --> 00:33:25.500
dad's yeah wheeler dealer wheeler fucking dealers

00:33:25.500 --> 00:33:28.710
yes Oh, I'd punch that little man. And then there'd

00:33:28.710 --> 00:33:32.630
be a recording of Ramstein on the box. Not quite

00:33:32.630 --> 00:33:34.690
with my old man, but bloody wheeler dealers.

00:33:34.849 --> 00:33:37.269
The number of people that go, I'm going to do

00:33:37.269 --> 00:33:39.529
up a car now because I can do it really cheap

00:33:39.529 --> 00:33:42.950
and then can't understand why they can't buy

00:33:42.950 --> 00:33:46.410
a classic MG, go to a shop and go, oh, but Ed

00:33:46.410 --> 00:33:50.529
said you could do decent deals. Yeah, mate, you've

00:33:50.529 --> 00:33:54.019
got Ed, the bloke who's got magic hands. And

00:33:54.019 --> 00:33:56.900
a really annoying, cheery chap and a TV crew.

00:33:57.079 --> 00:33:58.920
What do you think these people are going to say

00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:01.339
when they say, can you do it for cheaper? Of

00:34:01.339 --> 00:34:03.279
course they're going to do it for cheaper. I

00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:06.119
used to live for the reveal moment where Ed was

00:34:06.119 --> 00:34:08.860
shown the car and told how long he had to do

00:34:08.860 --> 00:34:12.139
it. Those moments were... Yeah, Ed, you've got

00:34:12.139 --> 00:34:14.199
this long. What you don't see on the camera is

00:34:14.199 --> 00:34:17.239
the 12 people working with Ed and the fully...

00:34:18.379 --> 00:34:21.260
decked out garage he's got. I mean, I liked Ed.

00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:23.480
He made his own YouTube series. Well, they fell

00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:25.500
out, didn't they? Yeah, they fell out. The little,

00:34:25.619 --> 00:34:27.920
or whatever his name is, he's horrible. I think

00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:30.260
he was a twat. He is not a twat. And it just

00:34:30.260 --> 00:34:32.079
really, so many people then go away thinking,

00:34:32.139 --> 00:34:34.340
right, I'll buy a car for really cheap. I can

00:34:34.340 --> 00:34:35.760
get the parts really cheap because all I've got

00:34:35.760 --> 00:34:37.340
to do is go into these places and say, I'll do

00:34:37.340 --> 00:34:41.619
it cheap for me. No. mention in that final price

00:34:41.619 --> 00:34:44.480
so we spent this much on the car we spent this

00:34:44.480 --> 00:34:46.519
much on parts we're going to sell it for this

00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:48.880
we've made a four thousand pound profit yeah

00:34:48.880 --> 00:34:53.260
what about The seven days of basically 24 -7

00:34:53.260 --> 00:34:56.280
work you had, your top mechanics working on it.

00:34:56.579 --> 00:34:59.099
All the tools that are in your garage that you

00:34:59.099 --> 00:35:01.739
already own. This is what I was saying to my

00:35:01.739 --> 00:35:03.380
dad. Every time we'd sit there and watch, I'd

00:35:03.380 --> 00:35:06.840
be like, what's his hourly rate on that? Exactly,

00:35:06.940 --> 00:35:12.170
but it's never added. It's never added. Completely

00:35:12.170 --> 00:35:14.289
lost our spot. I don't know where we were. We

00:35:14.289 --> 00:35:17.849
went from Nazis and... No, we went from Ed Gein

00:35:17.849 --> 00:35:20.909
to Wheeler Dealers. Yeah, true. It's the Ed Gein

00:35:20.909 --> 00:35:24.989
story. It's a six degrees of separation. Whatever

00:35:24.989 --> 00:35:28.650
it is. And we've just bought this. We've just

00:35:28.650 --> 00:35:31.829
bought this MG. Oh, Ed. What's in the compartment?

00:35:32.769 --> 00:35:35.269
There's a fanny. No, he's going to... I'm going

00:35:35.269 --> 00:35:40.789
to re -bolster it. Oh, God. Oh, I'm sure beige

00:35:40.789 --> 00:35:43.550
was the original colour. It's got a beautiful,

00:35:43.849 --> 00:35:47.489
beautiful skin I could put over this. Wonderful.

00:35:48.010 --> 00:35:51.630
Anyway, Peacemaker, right. Two episodes into

00:35:51.630 --> 00:35:55.110
Peacemaker. We know what's going to end up on

00:35:55.110 --> 00:35:58.969
the 60 -second clip of this show. I want one

00:35:58.969 --> 00:36:03.869
of your funny photoshops you've been doing, but

00:36:03.869 --> 00:36:07.820
do The Wheelie Dealers by Ed Gein. I wonder if

00:36:07.820 --> 00:36:11.380
I could get AI to generate a human skin cast.

00:36:11.460 --> 00:36:14.380
Yeah, imagine Wheeler Dealers, but Ed is Ed Gein

00:36:14.380 --> 00:36:18.480
instead. That's the show. That's the show I want

00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:23.579
to be on television. Who'd be the seller? Let's

00:36:23.579 --> 00:36:28.519
recast. Who's the guy selling it instead? Jeffrey

00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:32.440
Dahmer is the seller. No, it'd have to be like

00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:36.960
the psycho guy or whatever. Yeah, possibly. oh

00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:39.940
i don't know american psycho i mean not um yeah

00:36:39.940 --> 00:36:45.760
yeah there's the psycho is ed gein again oh you

00:36:45.760 --> 00:36:48.340
worry me child you're right sorry peacemaker

00:36:48.340 --> 00:36:50.460
i'm two episodes into peacemaker i love that

00:36:50.460 --> 00:36:53.800
show i really enjoy the intro they were a great

00:36:53.800 --> 00:36:57.030
intro when they're doing the dance Oh, and that

00:36:57.030 --> 00:36:59.449
song was brilliant. It went straight on my playlist.

00:36:59.610 --> 00:37:02.750
I absolutely love Wigwam and Do You Really Want

00:37:02.750 --> 00:37:05.130
It? It's just such a good song. But the dance,

00:37:05.269 --> 00:37:08.110
it's just phenomenal. And you've got bloody Robert

00:37:08.110 --> 00:37:10.030
Patrick coming in. It's like, Terminator, Black

00:37:10.030 --> 00:37:12.469
Terminator. And even he's just like, yes, this

00:37:12.469 --> 00:37:16.590
show. Oh, it's brilliant. It's great. I mean,

00:37:16.610 --> 00:37:21.510
I feel, I really like John Cena. I do feel a

00:37:21.510 --> 00:37:23.170
bit sorry for him. You can tell his body's been

00:37:23.170 --> 00:37:25.969
fucking destroyed by wrestling. There was a couple

00:37:25.969 --> 00:37:30.190
of wide shots of him in episode one, and you

00:37:30.190 --> 00:37:32.710
see him kind of stand up a bit and start walking.

00:37:32.750 --> 00:37:34.630
He's got a bit of an odd posture, which he needs

00:37:34.630 --> 00:37:38.550
to kind of, he walks it out a little bit. I think

00:37:38.550 --> 00:37:40.030
he's been on interviews and stuff, he's saying

00:37:40.030 --> 00:37:42.550
he's completely fucked. All his joints are completely

00:37:42.550 --> 00:37:44.469
fucked. He's in pain all the time. He's got such

00:37:44.469 --> 00:37:47.250
a weird gait and body shape now, doesn't he?

00:37:47.469 --> 00:37:50.000
And it's just like... Your torso seems to be

00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:54.320
bigger. But I love him. I think he's great. And

00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:56.599
he would be really good casting. Was it you who

00:37:56.599 --> 00:37:59.579
said if they ever did a Wolfenstein movie? Yeah,

00:37:59.599 --> 00:38:02.699
he would work brilliantly as a Blazkowicz. Yeah.

00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:07.179
And to be fair, he's a good actor. I'm hoping

00:38:07.179 --> 00:38:09.019
now you've seen it because obviously we've seen

00:38:09.019 --> 00:38:13.570
him as Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad. And he's

00:38:13.570 --> 00:38:15.610
a dick. And he's meant to be a dick. We know

00:38:15.610 --> 00:38:18.550
that. Just before you go to it, they did Previously,

00:38:19.070 --> 00:38:21.010
and it was all previously from the film. Yes.

00:38:21.110 --> 00:38:26.050
It was nice. But you get none of that kind of

00:38:26.050 --> 00:38:28.469
feeling that he's anything but a dick in the

00:38:28.469 --> 00:38:30.789
film. Yeah. But you come straight into Peacemaker

00:38:30.789 --> 00:38:32.949
and you get this kind of immediate feeling of

00:38:32.949 --> 00:38:35.530
there is more to him. He's a bit pathetic. And

00:38:35.530 --> 00:38:37.849
he portrays it brilliantly. Yeah, he's a little

00:38:37.849 --> 00:38:40.650
bit pathetic, to be fair. And he's like, he really

00:38:40.650 --> 00:38:42.869
wants his dad to love him. And his dad fucking

00:38:42.869 --> 00:38:45.710
hates him. Yeah. His dad thinks he's an absolute

00:38:45.710 --> 00:38:51.469
just lemon. And be Belle. Yeah. He's like, you

00:38:51.469 --> 00:38:54.630
should like check in that. It's just so funny.

00:38:55.090 --> 00:38:57.230
He's got massive cock, everyone, by the way.

00:38:57.349 --> 00:39:01.050
I love the helmet. You love his helmet? Yeah,

00:39:01.050 --> 00:39:03.969
I bet. And he's eagly. How eagly the eagle, yeah.

00:39:05.690 --> 00:39:08.269
That said, I'm on episode two. I think it's great.

00:39:08.800 --> 00:39:10.900
I'm well happy with it. That's it. That's all

00:39:10.900 --> 00:39:13.880
I've been doing. The rest, I don't know. My life's

00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:16.639
been a blur. Fair enough. Oh, and I went on a

00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:23.059
great date today. Accessing library computer

00:39:23.059 --> 00:39:29.739
data. 1987. PG. Two hours long. What's the film

00:39:29.739 --> 00:39:34.340
called? Inner Space. Inner Space. Cupid, draw

00:39:34.340 --> 00:39:38.329
back your bow. That's all the... Any time I hear

00:39:38.329 --> 00:39:39.949
that song, it just immediately takes me back

00:39:39.949 --> 00:39:43.070
to inner space. What a good film. What a brilliant

00:39:43.070 --> 00:39:46.489
film. Watched it with The Wife. Only scores 6

00:39:46.489 --> 00:39:49.809
.8 on IMDb, which I think is a criminally underrated

00:39:49.809 --> 00:39:53.210
film. Yeah. It was funny. It's a funny film because

00:39:53.210 --> 00:39:56.690
at first I forgot it's a funny film. Yeah. So

00:39:56.690 --> 00:39:58.789
it felt a little bit awkward right at the beginning.

00:39:59.269 --> 00:40:02.050
I was like, oh yeah, this is actually meant to

00:40:02.050 --> 00:40:04.289
be funny. Okay, I can enjoy it now. These are

00:40:04.289 --> 00:40:07.650
meant to be fucking idiots. Excuse me, Dennis

00:40:07.650 --> 00:40:10.510
Quaid plays a wanker very well. He does play

00:40:10.510 --> 00:40:13.090
a wanker very well. He looks very young in it,

00:40:13.110 --> 00:40:16.030
as does everyone. He looks great with his shirt

00:40:16.030 --> 00:40:18.030
off too, by the way. He does. And his towel off.

00:40:18.190 --> 00:40:22.190
Yep. Not bad. Except Martin Short, who just looks

00:40:22.190 --> 00:40:26.929
the same no matter what age he is. Yeah, he looks

00:40:26.929 --> 00:40:30.769
identical in that IMDb post as he does in the

00:40:30.769 --> 00:40:34.420
film. I think... What a really good film. The

00:40:34.420 --> 00:40:36.739
story's fun. Acting's all fun. Everyone's great

00:40:36.739 --> 00:40:39.400
in it. You know, the bits that are meant to be

00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:41.380
cheesy are cheesy. They're meant to be fucking

00:40:41.380 --> 00:40:43.599
cheesy. I don't think there's anything in here

00:40:43.599 --> 00:40:47.179
that's accidental. The CGI, really impressed

00:40:47.179 --> 00:40:50.400
with it. Very believable, I think, all of that

00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:53.079
inside. There's a particular spot where he's

00:40:53.079 --> 00:40:56.059
about to get sucked into the heart. Now, coming

00:40:56.059 --> 00:40:58.179
up towards the halfway point, about a third of

00:40:58.179 --> 00:41:00.789
the way through, actually. It just looks so good

00:41:00.789 --> 00:41:03.289
with this heart valve beating, all the little

00:41:03.289 --> 00:41:06.530
blood cells flowing past. It just looks really,

00:41:06.590 --> 00:41:09.210
really good for the era, especially. And yeah,

00:41:09.329 --> 00:41:11.070
it's, you're right. It didn't look blue screened

00:41:11.070 --> 00:41:12.869
at no point, but you know what I mean? That,

00:41:12.869 --> 00:41:15.489
that kind of, well, that's not there. It all

00:41:15.489 --> 00:41:18.590
looked right. It looked like it was meant to

00:41:18.590 --> 00:41:21.550
be there. Even the scenes where they did some

00:41:21.550 --> 00:41:24.969
great shots of Martin Short's character driving,

00:41:25.190 --> 00:41:27.369
like, so the camera's like looking at him from

00:41:27.369 --> 00:41:30.159
the side. He's, you know you know that now because

00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:31.559
he's probably his car is probably on the back

00:41:31.559 --> 00:41:33.539
of a truck and it's driving yeah but it looks

00:41:33.539 --> 00:41:35.980
like it's on the fucking street because his car's

00:41:35.980 --> 00:41:38.139
going past and stuff yeah it's not just like

00:41:38.139 --> 00:41:41.219
some you know scenery flying past everything

00:41:41.219 --> 00:41:44.840
they did in it was um you could tell it was purposely

00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:47.900
there and good you know everything that was awkward

00:41:47.900 --> 00:41:50.420
i think is meant to be awkward funny was meant

00:41:50.420 --> 00:41:52.719
to be funny serious was meant to be serious it

00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:55.519
all it's for me it all worked i had a great time

00:41:55.869 --> 00:41:57.869
Let's face it, there's only a couple of negative

00:41:57.869 --> 00:42:02.030
points to the film, in my opinion. One, I think,

00:42:02.030 --> 00:42:06.989
doesn't matter how old it is. And two is purely

00:42:06.989 --> 00:42:09.289
if you're going to be a proper geek about things.

00:42:09.750 --> 00:42:11.750
So number one, it doesn't matter what age it

00:42:11.750 --> 00:42:16.969
is, but we know that the body is not just full

00:42:16.969 --> 00:42:20.309
of fucking water everywhere. Yeah. So when he's

00:42:20.309 --> 00:42:22.170
floating around near the optic nerve, it's like...

00:42:23.299 --> 00:42:25.699
No, because that would mean water would be pouring

00:42:25.699 --> 00:42:28.039
out my eye all the time. It's just air there.

00:42:28.460 --> 00:42:32.579
When you kiss a woman, there is not a giant tidal

00:42:32.579 --> 00:42:35.059
wave of liquid going through. I did find that

00:42:35.059 --> 00:42:37.460
a little bit gaggy. I mean, let's face it, they

00:42:37.460 --> 00:42:39.099
could have had sex. We could have seen him go

00:42:39.099 --> 00:42:42.880
in a creamy ejaculate, but they didn't. I'm glad

00:42:42.880 --> 00:42:44.360
they didn't do that. It was lucky he just happened

00:42:44.360 --> 00:42:46.539
to be in the saliva gland area as well at both

00:42:46.539 --> 00:42:49.579
times. Considering he was just down by her womb.

00:42:50.480 --> 00:42:54.840
The whole world feels way too full of liquid.

00:42:55.500 --> 00:42:58.420
Everyone knew that, but I know that they had

00:42:58.420 --> 00:43:01.710
to do something. and the way they were doing

00:43:01.710 --> 00:43:04.510
it as well to make it look good. Obviously, some

00:43:04.510 --> 00:43:06.750
of it must have been filmed in water tanks and

00:43:06.750 --> 00:43:09.369
so on. So when they connect the little remote

00:43:09.369 --> 00:43:13.889
to his auditory nerve, you see it clamp on and

00:43:13.889 --> 00:43:15.829
little bubbles come up. So it was obviously done

00:43:15.829 --> 00:43:19.750
in either a swimming pool or a toilet or whatever.

00:43:20.269 --> 00:43:22.769
So I understand why they did it, because obviously

00:43:22.769 --> 00:43:25.849
they needed to make it look good. um they could

00:43:25.849 --> 00:43:27.610
just say oh yeah i'm in dry space so they could

00:43:27.610 --> 00:43:30.789
make it so it could fly versus float and i'm

00:43:30.789 --> 00:43:32.809
still in two minds is that what it's meant to

00:43:32.809 --> 00:43:36.050
be is he meant to be in some bits he's flying

00:43:36.050 --> 00:43:37.730
and other bits he's just like a little submarine

00:43:37.730 --> 00:43:40.449
i don't know so that bit i can kind of walk away

00:43:40.449 --> 00:43:42.650
from and then yeah if you want to be a total

00:43:42.650 --> 00:43:46.369
science geek he wouldn't ever have been able

00:43:46.369 --> 00:43:49.170
to stick his flask out and get the alcohol yeah

00:43:49.170 --> 00:43:50.789
that was a bit like he wouldn't have been able

00:43:50.789 --> 00:43:53.090
to get air into there and so on because if you

00:43:53.090 --> 00:43:56.329
look at this whole science of it really geeky

00:43:56.329 --> 00:43:59.269
shit here i'm really sorry sort of moment but

00:43:59.269 --> 00:44:03.710
if you miniaturize something the reason that

00:44:03.710 --> 00:44:06.389
you minute you would miniaturize oxygen tanks

00:44:06.389 --> 00:44:08.929
with that person is because you're miniaturizing

00:44:08.929 --> 00:44:11.010
the molecules of the oxygen in their lung and

00:44:11.010 --> 00:44:13.510
then process it yeah when you've shrunk him down

00:44:13.510 --> 00:44:16.840
that large his body cannot process what are now

00:44:16.840 --> 00:44:20.679
basically giant balls of oxygen flying at him.

00:44:20.679 --> 00:44:22.199
And it's the same with liquids and everything

00:44:22.199 --> 00:44:24.920
else. I know you suspend disbelief and it's fine,

00:44:25.019 --> 00:44:27.000
but I'm just going to say those are the bits

00:44:27.000 --> 00:44:29.000
they never kind of comment on. And they nearly

00:44:29.000 --> 00:44:31.659
do. That's the little bit that annoys me. It's

00:44:31.659 --> 00:44:33.360
like, oh, well, they can't open it because he'll

00:44:33.360 --> 00:44:35.159
implode because it's the whole pressure difference.

00:44:36.019 --> 00:44:38.659
They could have just gone with, well, no, because

00:44:38.659 --> 00:44:43.039
nothing works. He's too small. If it wasn't miniaturized

00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:45.320
with him. He can't use it. That would have been

00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:48.199
sorted then. Anyway, those are the two negative

00:44:48.199 --> 00:44:50.559
points for me. Otherwise, absolutely fucking

00:44:50.559 --> 00:44:53.900
adore this film. Yeah. The only other thing I'd

00:44:53.900 --> 00:44:56.059
probably point out, which I can see why they

00:44:56.059 --> 00:44:58.920
did it, where you see it. the ship flying through

00:44:58.920 --> 00:45:01.460
the air canal, which is a brilliant scene. Yeah.

00:45:01.559 --> 00:45:03.820
We see the light through the air canal. They

00:45:03.820 --> 00:45:05.559
just flip it. It's just mirrored when it's on

00:45:05.559 --> 00:45:07.579
the woman. Straight up, exactly the same shot,

00:45:07.619 --> 00:45:09.480
mirrored. They didn't get away with it, I noticed.

00:45:10.420 --> 00:45:12.280
But aside from that, yeah, everything was brilliant.

00:45:12.340 --> 00:45:13.940
But I mean, it's still a great shot, you know.

00:45:14.059 --> 00:45:18.840
To you, unusual for the time. 80s films, on the

00:45:18.840 --> 00:45:20.820
most part, and I will just say on the most part,

00:45:20.920 --> 00:45:24.639
just to protect myself there, rarely do I remember

00:45:24.639 --> 00:45:27.730
an 80s film being two hours or longer. and this

00:45:27.730 --> 00:45:31.050
came in at two hours i was surprised for a comedy

00:45:31.050 --> 00:45:34.090
as well yeah i know it was an action comedy but

00:45:34.090 --> 00:45:38.349
it was an action sci -fi thriller comedy all

00:45:38.349 --> 00:45:43.070
in one so two hours that was a surprise it doesn't

00:45:43.070 --> 00:45:45.289
feel it no it doesn't you don't get numb bum

00:45:45.289 --> 00:45:47.769
from it absolutely fine but that was a surprise

00:45:47.769 --> 00:45:50.289
for me did you read any of the trivia for this

00:45:50.289 --> 00:45:54.349
nope oh my god oh dear lord right before we even

00:45:54.349 --> 00:45:58.909
get to the film then so Apparently when Tuck

00:45:58.909 --> 00:46:01.389
is talking to Jack, so Tuck is Dennis Quaid,

00:46:01.429 --> 00:46:04.289
Jack is Martin Short, they were in the same room,

00:46:04.329 --> 00:46:08.170
just separated. So basically Martin Short is

00:46:08.170 --> 00:46:11.570
basically talking to Tuck. They didn't just film

00:46:11.570 --> 00:46:13.750
him doing his lines. They just stuck him in a

00:46:13.750 --> 00:46:16.610
booth and they were in the same room, which is

00:46:16.610 --> 00:46:18.610
a really good way of doing it. It just works.

00:46:18.650 --> 00:46:23.360
Brilliant. Originally, Tuck was meant to be an

00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:25.679
older gentleman. He wasn't meant to be Dennis

00:46:25.679 --> 00:46:27.599
Quaid as a young man. And it was going to be

00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:30.900
Ted Danson. But cheers and three men and a little

00:46:30.900 --> 00:46:33.039
lady had come along and Ted said, no, I'm not

00:46:33.039 --> 00:46:38.320
free. But wait, even more exciting. Around that

00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:45.579
time, Arnold Schwarzenegger wanted to be in comedies.

00:46:45.900 --> 00:46:49.179
Yeah. Somehow we ended up with twins, so I don't

00:46:49.179 --> 00:46:53.900
know what happened there. Oh, stop. So, Tuck

00:46:53.900 --> 00:46:57.340
was meant to be Arnold Schwarzenegger and Michael

00:46:57.340 --> 00:47:01.820
J. Fox for Jack. But Arnold Schwarzenegger turned

00:47:01.820 --> 00:47:04.039
it down because it wasn't a straight -up comedy.

00:47:05.000 --> 00:47:08.579
And Michael J. Fox then lost interest. I think

00:47:08.579 --> 00:47:10.340
I would have liked to have seen their version

00:47:10.340 --> 00:47:13.159
of it, but he wouldn't have been very good at

00:47:13.159 --> 00:47:15.420
it. Imagine him squeezing into that fucking robot

00:47:15.420 --> 00:47:17.639
thing. Something just tells me that can't be

00:47:17.639 --> 00:47:19.699
true. That's got to be one of these things. Someone

00:47:19.699 --> 00:47:22.659
has written on there, and no one has ever gone

00:47:22.659 --> 00:47:24.340
and fact -checked it. I mean, Arnie was probably

00:47:24.340 --> 00:47:29.840
top for everything. Well, 87, you said. So we've

00:47:29.840 --> 00:47:32.840
had Commando, we've had Terminator, we've had

00:47:32.840 --> 00:47:38.949
Predator. We'll ignore Conan the Barbarian, Red

00:47:38.949 --> 00:47:44.150
Sonja, Total Recall. And he's still got a load

00:47:44.150 --> 00:47:47.969
more to come. He's got things, not Equilibrium,

00:47:47.969 --> 00:47:52.469
that wasn't his one, Erasure, Eraser even. He's

00:47:52.469 --> 00:47:55.630
got True Lies, which, okay, was a comedy, but

00:47:55.630 --> 00:47:58.750
it's a great film. So anyway, that was one of

00:47:58.750 --> 00:48:02.269
the facts. The blood cells were jello. Which

00:48:02.269 --> 00:48:06.570
is very cool. I think that's very cool. So those

00:48:06.570 --> 00:48:08.230
were the trivia things. I thought, actually,

00:48:08.349 --> 00:48:10.489
if all of those are true, I really like that.

00:48:10.849 --> 00:48:16.210
I've got a quiz for you. I do. You've got five

00:48:16.210 --> 00:48:19.889
questions to get your knowledge on this film.

00:48:19.909 --> 00:48:22.510
How closely are you paying attention? Okay, ready?

00:48:22.989 --> 00:48:27.409
First one's an easy one. When, what's his name,

00:48:27.449 --> 00:48:31.400
got injected. Yes. With Dennis Quaid. Where was

00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:35.119
he injected? He was injected into Martin Short's

00:48:35.119 --> 00:48:38.139
arse cheek. In his bottom, yes. A nice easy one.

00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:42.519
Yep. Is that fat corpuscles? Which is funny because

00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:44.460
the whole point of the film, he's meant to be

00:48:44.460 --> 00:48:47.179
like this full of bravado. He's meant to be this

00:48:47.179 --> 00:48:49.780
drunk. People don't think much of him. But when

00:48:49.780 --> 00:48:52.940
you first see Jack go into Tuck's apartment,

00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:56.329
he's obviously done... There's even the joke

00:48:56.329 --> 00:48:58.070
where the scientist is like, can we please go

00:48:58.070 --> 00:48:59.369
through the plan? And he's like, well, who's

00:48:59.369 --> 00:49:01.269
nervous now? I know what I'm doing. We're fine.

00:49:02.289 --> 00:49:03.929
And you're just led to believe, oh, no, he's

00:49:03.929 --> 00:49:05.550
full of bravado. He's not bothered. He's just

00:49:05.550 --> 00:49:07.210
this alcoholic and whatever. And you go into

00:49:07.210 --> 00:49:09.670
his house and he's like, well, apartment, and

00:49:09.670 --> 00:49:13.949
he's got robots in there. So he has actually

00:49:13.949 --> 00:49:16.289
been paying attention to this. He does make the

00:49:16.289 --> 00:49:18.250
joke, though, he's like, I only studied rabbits.

00:49:18.909 --> 00:49:20.989
Yeah, well, you have to really love the idea

00:49:20.989 --> 00:49:26.340
of that as well. So when they do go back to the

00:49:26.340 --> 00:49:30.340
apartment for the first time, something happens

00:49:30.340 --> 00:49:35.800
to them. And it is an EMB. Now, what does the

00:49:35.800 --> 00:49:40.119
EMB stand for? This is our third iteration of

00:49:40.119 --> 00:49:43.139
this thing in the last few films that we've watched.

00:49:46.079 --> 00:49:51.820
Electromagnetic. B. Oh, blast? It's not a pulse,

00:49:52.079 --> 00:49:54.199
which is what we've had already. It's not pulse.

00:49:54.400 --> 00:49:57.019
It's a BBB. It's not blast. What was the other

00:49:57.019 --> 00:49:59.960
one we had? Electromagnetic. What was the ghost,

00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:02.420
the gunting one? Field. Field, yes. We've had

00:50:02.420 --> 00:50:04.260
EMP, we've had EMF, and now we've got an EMB.

00:50:05.239 --> 00:50:09.340
Is it electromagnetic? Booster. Booster, that's

00:50:09.340 --> 00:50:12.199
it. Now, when that happens, what goes flying

00:50:12.199 --> 00:50:18.690
out the window? Oh, fuck. Because the guy brings

00:50:18.690 --> 00:50:21.630
it back in. The bad guy brings it back in and

00:50:21.630 --> 00:50:23.510
hands it to him along with a letter. Oh, yeah.

00:50:23.710 --> 00:50:26.050
This is when they're in Martin Short's apartment,

00:50:26.090 --> 00:50:33.849
not the microwave. No. I won't say coffee maker,

00:50:33.909 --> 00:50:35.909
but I've got no idea. The cassette player launches

00:50:35.909 --> 00:50:40.130
a VHS out of the window. Yes, it does. Yes, yes,

00:50:40.170 --> 00:50:42.869
yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, it does. Right. Scrimshaw.

00:50:43.480 --> 00:50:45.380
He's got a funky license plate. Can you remember

00:50:45.380 --> 00:50:48.340
what his license plate is? Snap -on. No. Oh,

00:50:48.360 --> 00:50:51.360
no. Scrimshaw. Shit. Sorry. I'm thinking Mr.

00:50:52.000 --> 00:50:59.719
Robot Hand. Igo. That's his name. Oh, fuck. Go

00:50:59.719 --> 00:51:03.820
on. It's a Mortal Kombat character. The Ice Guy.

00:51:06.199 --> 00:51:11.590
Sub -Zero. Sub -Zero. S -U -B -Z -R -O. And I

00:51:11.590 --> 00:51:14.130
think you just alluded to it. What is the special

00:51:14.130 --> 00:51:17.849
attachment the robot hand man has? He's got the

00:51:17.849 --> 00:51:20.230
gun hand. He's got all sorts. No, what's the

00:51:20.230 --> 00:51:23.510
super special attachment that you see very briefly?

00:51:23.829 --> 00:51:27.489
Oh, my God. Gem and I spoke about this today.

00:51:29.809 --> 00:51:32.090
He's got a dildo attachment. He's got a French

00:51:32.090 --> 00:51:39.559
tickler. Oh, dear. She said that you were going

00:51:39.559 --> 00:51:41.659
to watch it with Kay or she sold Kay. And I went,

00:51:41.760 --> 00:51:46.079
do you remember what's in this film? It's a PG.

00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:50.539
What's a cock between a man and his step? Okay,

00:51:50.599 --> 00:51:59.659
no, let's not go there. About 15 years. Right.

00:52:04.710 --> 00:52:10.010
jail uh yeah i the thing is i've got to go from

00:52:10.010 --> 00:52:11.510
the notes i haven't got that many notes because

00:52:11.510 --> 00:52:13.170
i just enjoyed watching it i've got to be honest

00:52:13.170 --> 00:52:16.309
i didn't make many notes i got halfway through

00:52:16.309 --> 00:52:17.869
and then i just stopped doing notes because i

00:52:17.869 --> 00:52:19.809
thought yeah that none of these are negative

00:52:19.809 --> 00:52:21.969
these are just all i'm literally writing down

00:52:21.969 --> 00:52:24.030
what happens in the film yeah that's what i found

00:52:24.030 --> 00:52:26.960
myself doing i just like it's just giving me

00:52:26.960 --> 00:52:29.519
kind of reminders i mean picardo's fucking accent

00:52:29.519 --> 00:52:33.320
is atrocious oh god yeah he's so funny in it

00:52:33.320 --> 00:52:36.360
but it's just like i'm here for you picardo because

00:52:36.360 --> 00:52:39.739
i know you'll be the doctor one day yeah oh yeah

00:52:39.739 --> 00:52:42.179
make the most of that and i love that um shit

00:52:42.179 --> 00:52:44.559
what's his name dennis miller i think his name

00:52:44.559 --> 00:52:46.500
is let me have a quick look i've got it written

00:52:46.500 --> 00:52:51.639
down Dick Miller, sorry, turns up in this. He's

00:52:51.639 --> 00:52:53.760
the cab driver at the beginning. Yeah, I was

00:52:53.760 --> 00:52:55.579
thinking... Dick Miller, the man who has basically

00:52:55.579 --> 00:52:58.920
been a tiny role in every film under the sun.

00:52:58.960 --> 00:53:01.440
He's in Gremlins, Gremlins 2, he's in Terminator,

00:53:01.539 --> 00:53:04.820
Small Soldiers, and he's always this little two

00:53:04.820 --> 00:53:07.679
-bob bit, like kind of has a sentence or two

00:53:07.679 --> 00:53:11.039
kind of to say, and that's it. He's not the dad

00:53:11.039 --> 00:53:15.780
in Independence Day, is he? No, that's... And

00:53:15.780 --> 00:53:17.340
just because I'm not looking at a picture of

00:53:17.340 --> 00:53:19.260
him now. But yeah, Miranda said just like, he's

00:53:19.260 --> 00:53:22.579
in everything. He is in everything. Everything

00:53:22.579 --> 00:53:27.019
80s and early 90s. He is just small roles left,

00:53:27.019 --> 00:53:29.659
right and centre. But even the woman in the supermarket

00:53:29.659 --> 00:53:32.099
who's scanning herself. Oh, what, the ginger

00:53:32.099 --> 00:53:33.980
head one? She's in loads of stuff too, but I

00:53:33.980 --> 00:53:35.780
can't place what I know her from because they

00:53:35.780 --> 00:53:41.099
didn't IMDb her. Wendy. His not even girlfriend

00:53:41.099 --> 00:53:44.000
or we had a date. Just the girl there. Yeah,

00:53:44.019 --> 00:53:46.599
the girl he fancies, basically. Her name is Wendy.

00:53:46.679 --> 00:53:49.019
She's played by an actress called Wendy Schaal.

00:53:49.239 --> 00:53:53.019
Do you recognise that name? I did. Why do I recognise

00:53:53.019 --> 00:53:57.280
Wendy Schaal's name? No, go on. She is Francine

00:53:57.280 --> 00:54:03.880
in American Dad. What? Is she? Yeah, she's Francine

00:54:03.880 --> 00:54:08.119
in American Dad. Oh, Jesus. Oh. Yeah, I know.

00:54:08.159 --> 00:54:13.059
It threw me as well. I was like, oh, okay. I

00:54:13.059 --> 00:54:16.860
didn't even clock her voice. It doesn't sound

00:54:16.860 --> 00:54:19.860
it. It does not sound like Francine in a space.

00:54:20.480 --> 00:54:24.860
But yeah, all sorts of people just turn up in

00:54:24.860 --> 00:54:27.500
it, don't they? Any of those films of this era.

00:54:30.320 --> 00:54:33.380
So many bits I've loved about it. I love the

00:54:33.380 --> 00:54:36.710
fact that... the set where they've got the first

00:54:36.710 --> 00:54:39.630
experiment going on looks brilliant you've got

00:54:39.630 --> 00:54:41.929
monitors everywhere you've got it looks like

00:54:41.929 --> 00:54:44.030
really industrial kind of thing and i was thinking

00:54:44.030 --> 00:54:46.070
if this was modern day they'd set it in like

00:54:46.070 --> 00:54:48.630
a factory the size of a fucking stadium yeah

00:54:48.630 --> 00:54:50.690
you know like star trek did didn't they so you've

00:54:50.690 --> 00:54:52.849
got the original star trek you've got the uh

00:54:52.849 --> 00:54:55.829
the warp core and it's this tiny little kind

00:54:55.829 --> 00:54:58.630
of circular area and that's it and then you get

00:54:58.630 --> 00:55:02.269
to kind of star trek um the chris pioneer of

00:55:02.269 --> 00:55:06.469
star trek and to be fair to them it's true this

00:55:06.469 --> 00:55:10.309
is a fucking nuclear reactor and it just feels

00:55:10.309 --> 00:55:12.489
like you're in this giant industrial submarine

00:55:12.489 --> 00:55:16.690
giant expansive space i'm not going to diss them

00:55:16.690 --> 00:55:18.070
for that because i think that's a really good

00:55:18.070 --> 00:55:20.250
move because genuinely that's probably how it

00:55:20.250 --> 00:55:22.469
would be And I think they would do the same.

00:55:22.489 --> 00:55:24.510
If they modernized this, it wouldn't be this

00:55:24.510 --> 00:55:27.110
tiny little set that they'd built. It would be

00:55:27.110 --> 00:55:29.690
this giant bloody factory sort of thing that

00:55:29.690 --> 00:55:32.309
they'd built it within. But I love the fact that

00:55:32.309 --> 00:55:34.949
miniaturization can only be done by having these

00:55:34.949 --> 00:55:37.909
two little tiny red chips that go onto really

00:55:37.909 --> 00:55:43.090
badly soldered boards. Yeah, all of the physical...

00:55:44.539 --> 00:55:47.000
uh stuff and sets they were just immaculate they

00:55:47.000 --> 00:55:49.380
were perfect they were brilliant i really enjoyed

00:55:49.380 --> 00:55:52.360
that scientist who was getting kind of interviewed

00:55:52.360 --> 00:55:54.980
as going around and he was doing it but also

00:55:54.980 --> 00:55:57.739
whilst doing all the hr admin at the same time

00:55:57.739 --> 00:55:59.260
he's like oh these shouldn't be on your desk

00:55:59.260 --> 00:56:00.840
they should have been on my desk two weeks ago

00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:03.179
it was absolutely brick yeah that bit i loved

00:56:03.179 --> 00:56:05.039
and i got the note as well when he's talking

00:56:05.039 --> 00:56:07.199
about the whole laser i swear all the stuff he's

00:56:07.199 --> 00:56:10.619
saying is probably true all the bits about it

00:56:10.619 --> 00:56:13.179
was a 50 megawatt laser but milliwatt laser but

00:56:13.179 --> 00:56:15.980
we've made it into a 600 one by doing xyz but

00:56:15.980 --> 00:56:18.380
the funny thing is is there's a bit of the line

00:56:18.380 --> 00:56:22.929
where he goes on to about and um oh so i've got

00:56:22.929 --> 00:56:24.449
here when the science is speaking to the camera

00:56:24.449 --> 00:56:26.429
it sounds exactly as you expect it to sound i

00:56:26.429 --> 00:56:28.329
do wonder if he's talking about real things although

00:56:28.329 --> 00:56:31.929
he does then say something something it was then

00:56:31.929 --> 00:56:35.789
built by a van from a vandegraaff generator which

00:56:35.789 --> 00:56:38.110
everyone will know if you've ever gone to secondary

00:56:38.110 --> 00:56:39.869
school in the uk is the thing that you put your

00:56:39.869 --> 00:56:42.510
hands on and it makes your hair go frizzy and

00:56:42.510 --> 00:56:47.429
then parts of a hoover So it's like, oh, what?

00:56:47.969 --> 00:56:51.090
I'll try and work out what he's talking about

00:56:51.090 --> 00:56:53.449
that they built from that. So I genuinely don't

00:56:53.449 --> 00:56:56.190
know which bit they built, but little bits like

00:56:56.190 --> 00:56:58.110
that, it's like they were throwing in like little

00:56:58.110 --> 00:57:00.369
science -y bits and then are they listening still?

00:57:00.630 --> 00:57:03.389
So we'll just say this. Yeah, all of that stuff

00:57:03.389 --> 00:57:07.409
was really, all of the physical stuff was really

00:57:07.409 --> 00:57:09.750
good. I liked it, all of it. Yeah, well, as you

00:57:09.750 --> 00:57:12.010
said, the CGI stuff as well, although I'm certain

00:57:12.010 --> 00:57:15.730
when he gets miniaturized, You get that kind

00:57:15.730 --> 00:57:19.110
of, it's a fairly classic 80s kind of graphic

00:57:19.110 --> 00:57:21.690
where you get the really bright light forming

00:57:21.690 --> 00:57:23.889
lines around everything and it's kind of being

00:57:23.889 --> 00:57:27.170
digitized or whatever. Is that not the effect

00:57:27.170 --> 00:57:32.670
they used in, and my brain's gone, so this is

00:57:32.670 --> 00:57:34.409
what happens, as you say, when we work late.

00:57:34.510 --> 00:57:37.030
Now I've moved my finger and goddamn, quantum

00:57:37.030 --> 00:57:40.170
leap. It probably is. It is him leaping. It's

00:57:40.170 --> 00:57:42.710
like, we can use that. Although I think Quantum

00:57:42.710 --> 00:57:45.989
Leap came out after this. What I liked, we can

00:57:45.989 --> 00:57:48.349
go back to the chips again. When they put the

00:57:48.349 --> 00:57:50.349
chips in, the really fucking elaborate robots

00:57:50.349 --> 00:57:52.449
spinning around and stuff. And I said to Randall

00:57:52.449 --> 00:57:53.610
at the time, I was like, why doesn't he just

00:57:53.610 --> 00:57:56.449
fucking push it in? which they do at the very

00:57:56.449 --> 00:57:58.869
end he's like we're watching the arm like get

00:57:58.869 --> 00:58:00.969
ready and the guy just snatches it and puts it

00:58:00.969 --> 00:58:03.150
in yeah it's like why are you using the robot

00:58:03.150 --> 00:58:06.929
to open the box yeah you had too much time to

00:58:06.929 --> 00:58:11.690
do this your film company went This is a million

00:58:11.690 --> 00:58:14.929
pound robot arm. We've got it for the day. We're

00:58:14.929 --> 00:58:17.170
using it. I feel like that's the joke though.

00:58:17.250 --> 00:58:19.650
I feel that joke is there. It's just an elaborate

00:58:19.650 --> 00:58:21.909
way of using the machine. Oh, and then at the

00:58:21.909 --> 00:58:23.230
beginning of the film, obviously we've got the

00:58:23.230 --> 00:58:25.789
trope of workmen being the ones that are breaking

00:58:25.789 --> 00:58:28.809
in. I'm here to do the film. And of course, their

00:58:28.809 --> 00:58:31.670
gun of choice, Uzis. Of course, there's always

00:58:31.670 --> 00:58:34.070
Uzis. It's always Uzis. I think they just had

00:58:34.070 --> 00:58:37.389
a whole job lot of them, didn't they? Okay, right.

00:58:37.489 --> 00:58:41.420
Vernon Wells as Mr. Igo. What a brilliant portrayal

00:58:41.420 --> 00:58:44.179
of an evil character. And I've got to say, as

00:58:44.179 --> 00:58:47.820
a kid, that was the... I loved this film, but

00:58:47.820 --> 00:58:51.940
it always used to scare me when Mr. Igo gets

00:58:51.940 --> 00:58:54.460
miniaturized and put in his own little thing.

00:58:54.880 --> 00:58:57.679
And that bit always used to terrify me. Especially

00:58:57.679 --> 00:58:59.860
the bit where he ends up becoming a skeleton

00:58:59.860 --> 00:59:03.440
in the stomach acid. Yeah. It used to scare me.

00:59:03.519 --> 00:59:06.460
It was so well done. As a kid, I could properly

00:59:06.460 --> 00:59:08.360
imagine this going on. It's like, oh, my God,

00:59:08.380 --> 00:59:11.940
this is... That bit was absolutely brilliant.

00:59:12.059 --> 00:59:14.059
You think he's going to shit out the little bones

00:59:14.059 --> 00:59:20.699
of that little man. Oh, dear, I don't remember

00:59:20.699 --> 00:59:25.139
having that for lunch. I ate a fairy. So, yeah,

00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:28.000
well, I mean, in conclusion, let's conclude it.

00:59:28.269 --> 00:59:30.349
What a great film. Breath of Fresh Air. We've

00:59:30.349 --> 00:59:31.730
watched some really shit things recently on this

00:59:31.730 --> 00:59:33.269
show. We have watched some really shit things.

00:59:33.309 --> 00:59:35.670
It's been nice to watch something good. Something

00:59:35.670 --> 00:59:38.690
old that was good as well. As much as I have

00:59:38.690 --> 00:59:43.010
a fondness for Moon Trap. I don't know why I

00:59:43.010 --> 00:59:44.469
said it like that. Or the Quatermass experiment.

00:59:44.769 --> 00:59:50.440
That was enjoyable. This was... good for all

00:59:50.440 --> 00:59:53.239
the right reasons it wasn't just a cult classic

00:59:53.239 --> 00:59:56.739
it was well done it looked the part the actors

00:59:56.739 --> 00:59:59.880
in it i don't like martin short normally i'm

00:59:59.880 --> 01:00:02.780
not a fan of him he's not my my style of a comedian

01:00:02.780 --> 01:00:06.800
but for this he was brilliant i mean the bits

01:00:06.800 --> 01:00:11.030
where he he basically quaid says right you've

01:00:11.030 --> 01:00:13.469
got to talk to her like this it sounds like dennis

01:00:13.469 --> 01:00:16.929
quaid saying it just in his voice he just mimics

01:00:16.929 --> 01:00:19.409
it perfectly and actually i will say no that's

01:00:19.409 --> 01:00:22.489
the one other negative point i had on this we

01:00:22.489 --> 01:00:26.630
are shown him jack as this massively neurotic

01:00:26.630 --> 01:00:31.150
nervous cusp of a meltdown person but we're to

01:00:31.150 --> 01:00:35.590
believe That within seconds, well, within minutes

01:00:35.590 --> 01:00:37.610
of finally coming to the conclusion that he's

01:00:37.610 --> 01:00:39.469
not going mad and this person is actually in

01:00:39.469 --> 01:00:43.110
him, that he's willing to take on a gunman. Yeah.

01:00:43.250 --> 01:00:47.570
And win. Yeah. That bit... The power was in him

01:00:47.570 --> 01:00:57.070
all along, TJ. Of course. Transfer complete.

01:00:57.510 --> 01:01:01.070
And of course a man was in him all along. Yeah,

01:01:01.170 --> 01:01:05.690
lucky bastard. So we have actually decided before

01:01:05.690 --> 01:01:08.090
this section, we decided before the show starts

01:01:08.090 --> 01:01:10.369
what we're doing next. We're doing a wonderful

01:01:10.369 --> 01:01:16.409
film from 1997. 1970? Yeah, 1997. And the reason

01:01:16.409 --> 01:01:18.250
we're doing this one is because a prequel has

01:01:18.250 --> 01:01:20.469
been announced. It has been, and I genuinely

01:01:20.469 --> 01:01:22.449
don't know if that's going to be good, is it

01:01:22.449 --> 01:01:26.690
going to be bad? And Karen's going to be happy

01:01:26.690 --> 01:01:29.639
because she really likes this film. it's event

01:01:29.639 --> 01:01:34.360
horizon yeah i mean don't forget sam neill's

01:01:34.360 --> 01:01:37.840
character was the one that created event horizon

01:01:37.840 --> 01:01:41.920
he created the ship so who are they going to

01:01:41.920 --> 01:01:44.360
get to play young him if this is a prequel because

01:01:44.360 --> 01:01:47.480
a prequel to event horizon has to be about the

01:01:47.480 --> 01:01:49.480
creation of the ship and what happened on the

01:01:49.480 --> 01:01:53.000
ship yeah i mean to be fair actually you don't

01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:55.420
need the creation of it could just be the ship

01:01:55.420 --> 01:02:01.219
leaving and Going to hell, I guess. But I genuinely

01:02:01.219 --> 01:02:03.199
don't know what to think about it. I don't know

01:02:03.199 --> 01:02:04.719
if it's a good idea or a bad idea. Well, aren't

01:02:04.719 --> 01:02:07.000
they following another ship that's gone missing?

01:02:07.880 --> 01:02:11.559
No, so that's Event Horizon. So Event Horizon,

01:02:11.820 --> 01:02:15.260
they are following the original... Well, they're

01:02:15.260 --> 01:02:18.639
not. What they're doing is they've picked up

01:02:18.639 --> 01:02:21.519
all of a sudden the signal of the Event Horizon

01:02:21.519 --> 01:02:25.000
that was thought to be lost. So the prequel will

01:02:25.000 --> 01:02:27.869
be that ship then? So in theory, the prequel

01:02:27.869 --> 01:02:30.769
is the ship that went to hell and came back.

01:02:31.030 --> 01:02:34.469
Yeah. But again, I don't know if that's going

01:02:34.469 --> 01:02:38.190
to be any good. It's going to be a, yeah. Because

01:02:38.190 --> 01:02:41.010
the thing about Event Horizon, it's a good psychological

01:02:41.010 --> 01:02:44.829
horror, I think. It's not, you know, it gets

01:02:44.829 --> 01:02:47.429
fucking scary. It does. But it's not like demons

01:02:47.429 --> 01:02:49.469
in your face, demons in your face, which is what,

01:02:49.510 --> 01:02:51.889
which is like Doom the movie, which is what I

01:02:51.889 --> 01:02:54.300
feel like that. would be. Well, this is the problem,

01:02:54.360 --> 01:02:56.480
isn't it? Because also, if you're going for it

01:02:56.480 --> 01:02:58.860
to being a genuine prequel and you're not going

01:02:58.860 --> 01:03:00.639
to buff fuck about and try and change history,

01:03:00.880 --> 01:03:05.380
there's no survivors. I guess if they're going

01:03:05.380 --> 01:03:09.280
to rewrite it, the rewrite would be something

01:03:09.280 --> 01:03:12.420
they knew all about, all the bad stuff. Do you

01:03:12.420 --> 01:03:14.519
know what I mean? And he's making them go anyway

01:03:14.519 --> 01:03:17.619
because he's the big bad guy. Well, yeah, I mean...

01:03:17.619 --> 01:03:22.670
Again, for all we know. this prequel is going

01:03:22.670 --> 01:03:24.550
to be exactly that. It's going to be, I know

01:03:24.550 --> 01:03:27.070
this is going to send you to hell and you're

01:03:27.070 --> 01:03:29.630
to tell us what you see on the other side. I

01:03:29.630 --> 01:03:31.510
mean, really, you can make quite a good story

01:03:31.510 --> 01:03:34.230
of that. We're folding space, which is how we

01:03:34.230 --> 01:03:36.909
demonstrate. It folds a piece of paper and pushes

01:03:36.909 --> 01:03:38.969
a pencil through it, if you remember in the Event

01:03:38.969 --> 01:03:41.409
Horizon. And that's how all of us now understand

01:03:41.409 --> 01:03:44.869
folding space. Exactly. However, you could just

01:03:44.869 --> 01:03:47.179
say, oh, yes. But you're still passing between

01:03:47.179 --> 01:03:49.760
these two points. But what's between those two

01:03:49.760 --> 01:03:51.239
points? That's space in between. That's the hell

01:03:51.239 --> 01:03:53.619
space. And that could be what this is. And it

01:03:53.619 --> 01:03:55.880
turns out that's what they're exploring. And

01:03:55.880 --> 01:03:59.679
maybe there's pre -missions they did where it

01:03:59.679 --> 01:04:02.340
isn't all on hell. And the end of the prequel

01:04:02.340 --> 01:04:05.119
will be... We're ready to go on the main mission

01:04:05.119 --> 01:04:06.960
now, which is the one that goes all to shit.

01:04:07.219 --> 01:04:10.460
I don't know. It could be interesting. I think

01:04:10.460 --> 01:04:12.239
what we're going to end up with, though, is something

01:04:12.239 --> 01:04:14.360
that's going to be full of technology that doesn't

01:04:14.360 --> 01:04:18.659
match what we've got in the original film. It's

01:04:18.659 --> 01:04:26.380
going to try way too hard to be scary. Yeah,

01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:29.960
I'm really not sold on the idea. I think let's

01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:34.820
leave things alone sometimes. But anyway, 1997,

01:04:35.340 --> 01:04:40.679
Event Horizon. Looking forward to it. Command

01:04:40.679 --> 01:04:45.440

01:07:07.789 --> 01:07:10.389
James. He didn't get them all right. Then you're

01:07:10.389 --> 01:07:11.630
going to have to beep his name because he didn't

01:07:11.630 --> 01:07:13.010
get them all right. No, I'm letting him off because

01:07:13.010 --> 01:07:15.329
he did get all the other ones and the reason

01:07:15.329 --> 01:07:17.389
he hasn't got this one is because he refused

01:07:17.389 --> 01:07:20.929
to Google it. So, well done. But you wouldn't

01:07:20.929 --> 01:07:26.670
let anyone else off? No, no, no. What? Oh, I'm

01:07:26.670 --> 01:07:31.219
going to drop some big rude words. into the next
