00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.920
amount of news articles that we can talk about.

00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:08.379
Some of them to lesser degrees than others. Varying

00:01:08.379 --> 00:01:12.599
between superheroes and other things. Yeah, there's

00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:15.599
four main news articles. There's two YouTube

00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.180
video things. And then there's the overall main

00:01:19.180 --> 00:01:23.140
topics. Yeah, more so there's honorable mentions.

00:01:23.219 --> 00:01:30.500
Yeah. With quick commentary. Yeah. Just that.

00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:39.159
All right. Kicking it off. You pointed out. Does

00:01:39.159 --> 00:01:46.620
this really need a sequel? Really? So my wife

00:01:46.620 --> 00:01:48.040
and I have been going through this kick lately

00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:52.319
of watching. based on a true story films I know

00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:54.799
that not all of them are 100 % factual there's

00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:57.680
you know a lot of a lot of dramatization aspects

00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:02.040
added to the storylines of most of these what's

00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:07.459
interesting is is we watch this one and I know

00:02:07.459 --> 00:02:12.659
that parts of it were on point and then a lot

00:02:12.659 --> 00:02:18.099
of it was just there for the drama yeah with

00:02:18.099 --> 00:02:26.330
this because Even when the first movie was out,

00:02:26.469 --> 00:02:29.569
I remember both of us going, oh, this is so overrated.

00:02:29.610 --> 00:02:33.509
I don't really give a crap. I could care less.

00:02:34.210 --> 00:02:40.770
I'm the CEO, bitch. Yeah. I didn't much care

00:02:40.770 --> 00:02:42.990
for it. Yes, it was Mark Zuckerberg's story,

00:02:43.069 --> 00:02:46.370
but I found, honestly, all of the different Steve

00:02:46.370 --> 00:02:50.870
Jobs movies. To be more entertaining. I also

00:02:50.870 --> 00:03:00.009
have to say this. Sorkin's stuff, while somewhat

00:03:00.009 --> 00:03:05.349
interesting, I don't really like his filmmaking.

00:03:06.430 --> 00:03:10.650
It's a specific style, I'll say that. It's a

00:03:10.650 --> 00:03:14.229
very specific. I know he's been good in the newsroom.

00:03:15.979 --> 00:03:18.599
a few good men and things like that the steve

00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:23.199
jobs film i thought was crap uh studio 60 was

00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:28.259
good yeah uh yeah the steve steve jobs film there

00:03:28.259 --> 00:03:29.960
was a lot of liberties taken with that as well

00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.939
like yeah there was a couple of key things that

00:03:31.939 --> 00:03:33.539
actually happened but then a lot of it was just

00:03:33.539 --> 00:03:38.719
bull um same thing with this like i didn't much

00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:41.379
care for the first one my wife didn't either

00:03:41.379 --> 00:03:43.020
like she's like yeah that's kind of interesting

00:03:43.020 --> 00:03:48.060
you know and then we were like meh and then promptly

00:03:48.060 --> 00:03:50.460
didn't care anymore she was more engaged by the

00:03:50.460 --> 00:03:56.379
steve jobs films than this and honestly like

00:03:56.379 --> 00:03:59.800
while while it's interesting to hear that he's

00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:03.740
doing these social network too is it really necessary

00:04:03.740 --> 00:04:08.280
like i i get we want the origin story for a lot

00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:10.500
of these but i don't feel like we need their

00:04:10.500 --> 00:04:14.039
entire life and rundown of like everything yeah

00:04:15.100 --> 00:04:20.100
I mean, the thing with Aaron Sorkin is he's mainly

00:04:20.100 --> 00:04:23.600
a Hollywood writer. He's not a director, so he

00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:27.819
didn't... He wrote the story for a lot of the

00:04:27.819 --> 00:04:32.019
stuff. That's the key here, is that he's a Hollywood

00:04:32.019 --> 00:04:39.399
writer. Because the first, from 92 to 2015, all

00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:43.660
of his films, he is not the director. He's the

00:04:43.660 --> 00:04:48.180
writer. So a few good men, malice, American president,

00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.420
Charlie Wilson's war, social network, money ball,

00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:55.199
Steve jobs. He's not directing those films. He's

00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:58.620
just writing them. Yeah. And, and even then,

00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:00.079
like, that's what I'm getting at. It's like,

00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.180
I don't care who directs it. Cause yeah, it's

00:05:03.180 --> 00:05:05.860
not, it's not that it's the story. Yeah. Oh,

00:05:05.879 --> 00:05:12.579
absolutely. And, and yeah, I mean, out of, out

00:05:12.579 --> 00:05:17.259
of all of the stuff that he's, done i haven't

00:05:17.259 --> 00:05:20.759
even finished the newsroom i got to like i don't

00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:24.540
know the first five or six episodes of the first

00:05:24.540 --> 00:05:28.660
season i liked what i saw of the newsroom out

00:05:28.660 --> 00:05:31.480
of the movies that he's written for i liked a

00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.680
few good men i liked the american president i

00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:43.819
liked the social network it was okay i don't

00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.259
I remember seeing Steve Jobs. I think I saw the

00:05:47.259 --> 00:05:51.560
other one. I think Steve Jobs is not... Steve

00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:54.860
Jobs is not the one with Ashton. Jobs is the

00:05:54.860 --> 00:05:57.639
one with Ashton. Jobs is the one with Ashton.

00:05:57.639 --> 00:06:00.459
Steve Jobs is the one with... With Michael Fassbender.

00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:04.100
Yeah. And it's not a knock against the actors.

00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:05.660
I mean, they did great for what they were given.

00:06:06.779 --> 00:06:10.779
Fassbender actually looks like older Steve Jobs.

00:06:13.589 --> 00:06:16.850
ashton looks like younger steve jobs yeah yeah

00:06:16.850 --> 00:06:19.269
and so they do a really good job at playing the

00:06:19.269 --> 00:06:21.750
character of you know in the person of steve

00:06:21.750 --> 00:06:25.689
jobs and so those i did enjoy for different reasons

00:06:25.689 --> 00:06:28.790
i enjoyed jobs more than steve jobs and then

00:06:28.790 --> 00:06:31.350
of course i've seen pirates of silicon valley

00:06:31.350 --> 00:06:35.269
of course you have which is which is much older

00:06:35.269 --> 00:06:40.329
yes and it's got more of the microsoft and uh

00:06:40.329 --> 00:06:46.149
apple starting yeah but this i mean and especially

00:06:46.149 --> 00:06:50.790
reading what he wants to more or less wrap into

00:06:50.790 --> 00:06:56.209
this into into the social network too yeah he's

00:06:56.209 --> 00:06:58.930
because obviously the first one was the origins

00:06:58.930 --> 00:07:02.990
of facebook he wants to follow it up with more

00:07:02.990 --> 00:07:09.500
of a uh writing about facebook and its impact

00:07:09.500 --> 00:07:12.160
on democracy and then the january 6th thing and

00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:16.120
it's like god get out get out shut the fuck do

00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:19.680
you we can move on i'm done yeah yeah i don't

00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:24.600
even care yeah so that's that's i have zero interest

00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:33.629
now like nope not even like uh -uh no no huge

00:07:33.629 --> 00:07:36.949
difference in wanting to write a sequel to a

00:07:36.949 --> 00:07:42.850
movie of an origin story and maybe tell how mr

00:07:42.850 --> 00:07:48.189
zuckerberg continued on with his story of how

00:07:48.189 --> 00:07:54.290
he caved to finally putting ads on facebook or

00:07:54.290 --> 00:07:57.269
maybe he finally did something different than

00:07:57.269 --> 00:08:02.250
he like maybe he sacrificed one of his morals

00:08:02.250 --> 00:08:04.550
or something that he said he would never do with

00:08:04.550 --> 00:08:09.550
facebook or maybe he it would have to be something

00:08:09.550 --> 00:08:12.149
that in the first movie he said he would never

00:08:12.149 --> 00:08:16.370
do that he eventually just buckled under the

00:08:16.370 --> 00:08:19.089
pressure of having to do that something in order

00:08:19.089 --> 00:08:23.949
to keep facebook alive or oh hell no yeah so

00:08:23.949 --> 00:08:26.670
anyways we'll move on yeah i'm done with that

00:08:26.670 --> 00:08:32.100
that's like I don't, why would anyone want to

00:08:32.100 --> 00:08:35.039
see that? I don't know if they're going to specifically

00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:37.679
touch on that specific date, but they're going

00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:39.960
to definitely be very political with it. And

00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:42.799
honestly, I'm looking for any escape from it.

00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:46.159
Like we're living it. I don't like Star Trek

00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:49.039
had this nice way of, of infiltrating it in,

00:08:49.100 --> 00:08:52.720
in the story without like being in your face.

00:08:52.740 --> 00:08:54.639
And it was more cerebral and made you kind of

00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:59.389
go, Hmm, you know, like not. in your face with

00:08:59.389 --> 00:09:01.769
it but they were they were like making you think

00:09:01.769 --> 00:09:04.610
yeah and that was what i enjoyed about how star

00:09:04.610 --> 00:09:06.669
trek pulled it off yeah that's the kind of story

00:09:06.669 --> 00:09:09.649
we want in entertainment is we want to be able

00:09:09.649 --> 00:09:14.049
to have the entertainment make us think about

00:09:14.049 --> 00:09:18.509
certain things and not I definitely agree with

00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:21.929
the ability to question either side. It doesn't

00:09:21.929 --> 00:09:24.529
matter. I'm not getting critical. No, no, no.

00:09:24.809 --> 00:09:26.769
Absolutely. I feel like you should be able to

00:09:26.769 --> 00:09:29.850
have that conversation, yes. And I feel like

00:09:29.850 --> 00:09:32.230
people should not be so far up the butt of either

00:09:32.230 --> 00:09:34.830
side of it that they can't have a civil conversation.

00:09:35.570 --> 00:09:41.110
That being said, there are things that both of

00:09:41.110 --> 00:09:42.970
them do equally that are horrible at different

00:09:42.970 --> 00:09:47.220
points of time. And honestly, having it in your

00:09:47.220 --> 00:09:49.820
face constantly like between the news and social

00:09:49.820 --> 00:09:54.980
media is why people are so charged and just can't

00:09:54.980 --> 00:10:00.559
unwind and to have you know i would rather that

00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:02.559
it was more of like that that thing that makes

00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:04.820
you go hmm think about it thing rather than an

00:10:04.820 --> 00:10:07.120
in your face like oh that's let's just rehash

00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:10.179
this again yeah um when it's been in the news

00:10:10.179 --> 00:10:14.639
for years now so i i would much rather just have

00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:16.919
something that's just entertaining which is why

00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:19.899
i pretty much stay away from any of these type

00:10:19.899 --> 00:10:21.720
of things anymore and i watch old stuff unless

00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:25.879
it's like you know like the new happy gilmore

00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:27.700
2 that's going to be coming out and you know

00:10:27.700 --> 00:10:32.240
some of the just things that are older and based

00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:35.379
on a true story but they're you know it's it's

00:10:35.379 --> 00:10:37.750
it's a segment of different point of time and

00:10:37.750 --> 00:10:40.350
it's not necessarily like horrid yeah constantly

00:10:40.350 --> 00:10:44.289
so yeah well this is why so for me this is why

00:10:44.289 --> 00:10:50.809
i so again you know you can tell a story like

00:10:50.809 --> 00:10:56.690
you take something like um i'm trying to think

00:10:56.690 --> 00:11:08.500
what's the what's the um Not 16 blocks. I forget.

00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:18.679
Double Jeopardy or Basic Instinct or insert whatever

00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:23.440
old ass movie here. You take like Husband Murders

00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:27.100
Wife or Wife Murders Husband. X number of whatever.

00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:30.179
Nowadays for me, that kind of stuff or that kind

00:11:30.179 --> 00:11:34.409
of whatever. true crime stuff i watch true crime

00:11:34.409 --> 00:11:37.250
shows for that kind of stuff for the real like

00:11:37.250 --> 00:11:41.250
for me movies need to be an escape uh you can

00:11:41.250 --> 00:11:44.690
do the murder mystery suspense thing that's fine

00:11:44.690 --> 00:11:49.590
but i don't need i i don't i try my best not

00:11:49.590 --> 00:11:51.950
outside of marvel and stuff like that i try my

00:11:51.950 --> 00:11:55.529
best not to do the political thriller thing because

00:11:56.730 --> 00:11:59.429
I don't like politics in my entertainment most

00:11:59.429 --> 00:12:01.649
of the time. Yes, I understand there's going

00:12:01.649 --> 00:12:04.789
to always be politics in entertainment because

00:12:04.789 --> 00:12:09.370
that's just the way the Hollywood writers write

00:12:09.370 --> 00:12:12.970
things and everything else, but specifically

00:12:12.970 --> 00:12:18.529
saying that you're going to potentially have

00:12:18.529 --> 00:12:25.480
January... No. So anyway... Over in the Marvel

00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:29.860
Cinematic Universe, we have Ironheart. And all

00:12:29.860 --> 00:12:37.139
the reviews are swaying one way. Hey, look, I'm

00:12:37.139 --> 00:12:39.200
just glad people like something in the Marvel

00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:50.840
Cinematic Universe again, finally. I find it

00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:52.860
funny that they say that it's got, you know.

00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:58.480
cultural nuance millennial nostalgia and yada

00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:03.580
yada yada but i don't i just i just don't care

00:13:03.580 --> 00:13:07.840
now i i've been interested into in reading in

00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:10.740
into some of the riri williams comics i have

00:13:10.740 --> 00:13:13.580
not had a chance to check out any of the i've

00:13:13.580 --> 00:13:16.580
known about the character for years now and i

00:13:16.580 --> 00:13:18.899
just have never had a chance to check out her

00:13:18.899 --> 00:13:22.870
character in the marvel comics universe Uh, but

00:13:22.870 --> 00:13:28.470
I don't know. I need something in, and we're

00:13:28.470 --> 00:13:30.929
going to get into this later when we talk about

00:13:30.929 --> 00:13:35.149
phase four and phase five in the main discussion

00:13:35.149 --> 00:13:37.570
of the podcast tonight, tonight, today, whenever

00:13:37.570 --> 00:13:41.169
you find people listening to this, but I just.

00:13:44.669 --> 00:13:48.090
Every trailer I see of this or every clip or

00:13:48.090 --> 00:13:50.960
every snippet I see of this, I'm. interested

00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:55.019
to find out what it's about so for me to see

00:13:55.019 --> 00:14:00.139
people talking about it positively even though

00:14:00.139 --> 00:14:02.279
i'm not going to remember about half of the stuff

00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:04.059
that people have said at least i know people

00:14:04.059 --> 00:14:07.340
are talking about it positively will make me

00:14:07.340 --> 00:14:09.740
think at some point whenever i get to watching

00:14:09.740 --> 00:14:14.419
ironheart that i know i'm at least going in looking

00:14:14.419 --> 00:14:21.450
at it as oh this could be good See, I look at

00:14:21.450 --> 00:14:24.870
it from the stance of like if it's got an average

00:14:24.870 --> 00:14:28.330
tomato meter that it's high, I'm generally not

00:14:28.330 --> 00:14:34.070
going to like it. It's got a 55 percent for average

00:14:34.070 --> 00:14:36.429
popcorn meter, which is, you know, you're you're

00:14:36.429 --> 00:14:39.809
every man more or less. Now, that being said,

00:14:39.929 --> 00:14:41.950
you know, I also watched, you know, the National

00:14:41.950 --> 00:14:44.909
Treasure Edge of History. And the critics gave

00:14:44.909 --> 00:14:47.409
it a 38 percent and the audience gave it a 49.

00:14:47.529 --> 00:14:50.710
And I have to agree it was crap because they

00:14:50.710 --> 00:14:53.710
missed out on having the biggest one that they

00:14:53.710 --> 00:14:55.970
could have in it, which was Nicolas Cage. Yes.

00:14:57.230 --> 00:15:03.909
Now, that being said, I. I'm not a huge fan of

00:15:03.909 --> 00:15:06.389
all of the Marvel television series. I don't

00:15:06.389 --> 00:15:08.830
watch most of them. The only ones I cared to

00:15:08.830 --> 00:15:11.509
watch. were the ones that were in the actual

00:15:11.509 --> 00:15:16.309
Avengers films. And so like, did I like, I liked

00:15:16.309 --> 00:15:20.669
Loki from the perspective of he was trying to

00:15:20.669 --> 00:15:23.269
fix part of the multiverse, which was all jacked

00:15:23.269 --> 00:15:25.090
up anyway, because of all the stuff they've been

00:15:25.090 --> 00:15:27.730
doing. Right. And that's how he kind of comes

00:15:27.730 --> 00:15:32.669
into play into the next two Avengers films. And

00:15:32.669 --> 00:15:38.090
so in that regard, I find that one useful. Hawkeye.

00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:41.460
That show was was interesting because I again,

00:15:41.539 --> 00:15:45.480
I like the character. It's not my favorite character

00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:48.019
of the group, but I do like the character. And

00:15:48.019 --> 00:15:52.940
then, you know, then you had, you know, Scarlet

00:15:52.940 --> 00:15:57.059
Witch, you know, show. And then you have the

00:15:57.059 --> 00:16:02.600
the animated. You know, what if the rest of them,

00:16:02.700 --> 00:16:12.960
you know. Even the Winter Soldier and Falcon

00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:17.039
and the Winter Soldier, that one was okay, but

00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:21.840
it was kind of, again, a miss. What If was generally

00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:26.000
entertaining across the board. Hawkeye was entertaining

00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:33.690
across the board. I have not enjoyed any of the

00:16:33.690 --> 00:16:37.409
other Marvel shows. I've tried giving some of

00:16:37.409 --> 00:16:40.389
them a chance. I tried watching She -Hulk. I

00:16:40.389 --> 00:16:43.370
tried watching a few of the others. I just could

00:16:43.370 --> 00:16:46.870
not. I watched them most of the way through.

00:16:47.230 --> 00:16:50.490
I was like, okay, I'm done with the television

00:16:50.490 --> 00:16:52.009
stuff. I'm just going to stick with the films.

00:16:52.169 --> 00:16:54.629
Even then, a lot of the films have been a miss.

00:16:55.009 --> 00:16:59.549
We'll get into that later. In this regard, I

00:16:59.549 --> 00:17:03.759
just don't care. yeah i'm it's so for me with

00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:09.119
marvel right now where i am is it's a wait and

00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:12.740
see like for me with a lot of stuff right now

00:17:12.740 --> 00:17:16.339
it's a wait and see because i've got so many

00:17:16.339 --> 00:17:20.000
other things that i'm currently doing or so many

00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:22.119
other things i'm currently not doing because

00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:25.440
i'm so backed up because of my medical stuff

00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:31.680
that's going on i'm okay folks but Fine, getting

00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:36.160
into this. A couple months ago, something happened

00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:38.960
with my right arm, which is my cerebral palsy

00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:43.460
arm, where from the top of my shoulder to right

00:17:43.460 --> 00:17:47.640
above my right elbow, I had nothing but constant

00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:50.960
pain in my upper bicep, tricep, whatever area

00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:57.200
this up here. And we did x -rays, we did this,

00:17:57.200 --> 00:18:02.599
we did that. Did all kinds of stuff. And about,

00:18:02.859 --> 00:18:06.359
well, by the time you find people who hear this,

00:18:06.420 --> 00:18:09.160
it'll probably be the 4th of July weekend. Yay!

00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:16.220
We're actually recording this Monday, June 30th,

00:18:16.220 --> 00:18:22.799
2025. 30 years ago to the date of the release

00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:25.299
in theaters of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers,

00:18:25.460 --> 00:18:29.089
the movie. Talk about that later, too. That's

00:18:29.089 --> 00:18:31.829
a good movie. That's right. We'll talk about

00:18:31.829 --> 00:18:37.569
that later, too. So as of this date, as of the

00:18:37.569 --> 00:18:40.690
sound of my voice, about a month and a half ago,

00:18:40.789 --> 00:18:44.650
I hit my left elbow, which is my good arm on

00:18:44.650 --> 00:18:48.130
the wall. Don't ask me how I hit. It's a balance

00:18:48.130 --> 00:18:50.829
issue thing, and I have bad balance issues because

00:18:50.829 --> 00:18:54.069
of the cerebral palsy. So you know how when you

00:18:54.069 --> 00:18:57.170
hit your elbow and the pain is like at first,

00:18:57.230 --> 00:19:00.220
it's like, oh, holy. I hit my elbow. What the

00:19:00.220 --> 00:19:03.079
going on here and everything else? And that pain

00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:06.059
lasts, let's say, 20, 30 minutes, whatever, maybe

00:19:06.059 --> 00:19:09.000
less than that. And then, you know, two days

00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:11.640
later, you forget about it. Well, my two days

00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:17.539
later, my in between my middle finger and ring

00:19:17.539 --> 00:19:20.779
finger from my ring finger out to my pinky and

00:19:20.779 --> 00:19:24.579
down to my wrist, that whole side of my left

00:19:24.579 --> 00:19:28.630
hand, even right now as I'm speaking. is constantly

00:19:28.630 --> 00:19:32.009
numb like you sleep on your hand and your hand

00:19:32.009 --> 00:19:34.309
goes numb and normally you can just rub your

00:19:34.309 --> 00:19:36.670
hand and like you can shake your hand out and

00:19:36.670 --> 00:19:40.829
it goes away it's that kind of numbness and tingliness

00:19:40.829 --> 00:19:43.309
and the more i use like if i'm sitting here typing

00:19:43.309 --> 00:19:46.650
if i'm sitting here writing or if i'm doing the

00:19:46.650 --> 00:19:49.769
dishes or if i'm doing laundry the more i use

00:19:49.769 --> 00:19:52.369
my left hand which is my good hand it's the only

00:19:52.369 --> 00:20:00.769
hand i can freaking use the more I use it, the

00:20:00.769 --> 00:20:03.529
more the numbness spreads to my middle finger,

00:20:03.630 --> 00:20:05.789
my index finger and my thumb, and it spreads

00:20:05.789 --> 00:20:11.329
to my whole hand. So again, as of this recording

00:20:11.329 --> 00:20:14.329
today, I just got out of the doctor's office

00:20:14.329 --> 00:20:19.069
to do an EMG test, which is basically them putting

00:20:19.069 --> 00:20:21.750
a bunch of needles in my arm and hand and else

00:20:21.750 --> 00:20:24.529
to do their tests. And I'm waiting on test results

00:20:24.529 --> 00:20:28.029
to figure out what the hell's going on. And the

00:20:28.029 --> 00:20:31.490
whole point of all of this is to say that I haven't

00:20:31.490 --> 00:20:34.450
been keeping up on a lot of things and everything

00:20:34.450 --> 00:20:40.109
else. So, yeah, it's just just just crazy. So

00:20:40.109 --> 00:20:42.650
just trying to keep up with some of this stuff

00:20:42.650 --> 00:20:47.529
lately is like I'm not really caring. I'm not

00:20:47.529 --> 00:20:52.869
keeping up with Marvel as like I'm not so sharp.

00:20:54.450 --> 00:20:57.890
With Marvel, as I used to be. And like you've

00:20:57.890 --> 00:21:01.829
already said, and we will talk about later, it's

00:21:01.829 --> 00:21:06.690
not like, and I've said this before, you name

00:21:06.690 --> 00:21:10.730
your quote unquote 22nd or 23rd movie, whatever

00:21:10.730 --> 00:21:16.329
it is, the end game. In my mind, that means it's

00:21:16.329 --> 00:21:19.890
the end. That means you're wrapping up your story.

00:21:20.049 --> 00:21:22.869
I understand you can make more movies and do

00:21:22.869 --> 00:21:25.289
more stories in the future with different characters

00:21:25.289 --> 00:21:27.630
and other characters. And that's all. fine but

00:21:27.630 --> 00:21:31.950
you wrap up this x number of 15 years 16 you

00:21:31.950 --> 00:21:33.670
know however the hell many years it was from

00:21:33.670 --> 00:21:36.269
2008 to 2019 i'm not doing the math on that right

00:21:36.269 --> 00:21:45.529
now but like i don't know everything after endgame

00:21:45.529 --> 00:21:50.869
i was very skeptical at first i liked a lot of

00:21:50.869 --> 00:21:55.230
it but i i don't know And as far as phase four

00:21:55.230 --> 00:21:57.250
and five, like we said, we're going to do a deeper

00:21:57.250 --> 00:21:59.750
discussion in a little bit here, folks on the

00:21:59.750 --> 00:22:03.890
show, but I just don't pay attention as much

00:22:03.890 --> 00:22:07.289
as I used to. And the only reason why we're even

00:22:07.289 --> 00:22:10.150
talking about any of this now is because Ironheart

00:22:10.150 --> 00:22:13.789
news came out and it's like, oh, it's coming

00:22:13.789 --> 00:22:16.950
up. And oh, the reviews are, every review is

00:22:16.950 --> 00:22:21.309
so positive. It's skewed to the positive. Finally.

00:22:22.280 --> 00:22:25.079
Somebody's actually talking positive about something.

00:22:25.740 --> 00:22:29.339
That's what we flippin' need in geekdom right

00:22:29.339 --> 00:22:32.460
now. We need some flippin' positivity, dammit.

00:22:33.299 --> 00:22:36.019
See, I used the flippin' and I used my other

00:22:36.019 --> 00:22:40.940
thing for the dammit. You're lucky, because I've

00:22:40.940 --> 00:22:48.680
been trying my best not to fluck off. And fluck

00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:58.519
it up. I said fluck. I understand negativity

00:22:58.519 --> 00:23:02.200
and bad things and horrible things happening.

00:23:02.420 --> 00:23:07.279
I get it. If it bleeds, it leads. I get it in

00:23:07.279 --> 00:23:10.059
news. Trust me, I understand that. We've been

00:23:10.059 --> 00:23:15.279
covering news for 15 years, 16 years, whatever

00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:19.640
it is. I get it. But the fact that these reviews

00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:24.329
for this show... This six episode show. Six episodes.

00:23:24.390 --> 00:23:29.730
You got to be kidding. I hate the Disney Plus

00:23:29.730 --> 00:23:34.809
model. I really do. Oh, for sure. Give me something

00:23:34.809 --> 00:23:38.549
I can sync. Look, I'm not asking for 22. I'm

00:23:38.549 --> 00:23:42.490
not asking for 23. I'm not asking for the old

00:23:42.490 --> 00:23:46.170
days of that kind of to give me 10. Give me 12.

00:23:46.430 --> 00:23:51.990
Give me something. Six. Really? because i guarantee

00:23:51.990 --> 00:23:55.029
you they're gonna give you six episodes and on

00:23:55.029 --> 00:23:56.690
that sixth episode they're gonna leave it on

00:23:56.690 --> 00:23:59.150
cliffhanger and if they don't get enough in the

00:23:59.150 --> 00:24:01.089
ratings or if they don't get enough in the streaming

00:24:01.089 --> 00:24:03.670
numbers they're gonna say well we didn't get

00:24:03.670 --> 00:24:05.509
enough in the streaming numbers so iron heart

00:24:05.509 --> 00:24:07.710
will never be seen again unless it's in some

00:24:07.710 --> 00:24:11.750
random movie with groot because let's face it

00:24:11.750 --> 00:24:15.630
groot is the grogu of the marvel universe sorry

00:24:15.630 --> 00:24:19.289
not sorry there you go make a clip out of that

00:24:19.289 --> 00:24:26.990
buddy Yeah. Oh God. But yeah, no, I mean, I'm

00:24:26.990 --> 00:24:30.289
interested to see what it is, what, what happens

00:24:30.289 --> 00:24:35.210
with that show when I, whenever I end up seeing

00:24:35.210 --> 00:24:39.130
it, whether it's what, whatever, whenever. So

00:24:39.130 --> 00:24:43.450
we'll, we'll see on the flip side of, of the

00:24:43.450 --> 00:24:48.630
superheroes. We have DC, uh, where James Gunn

00:24:48.630 --> 00:24:58.160
says that, um, That Adria Arona or Arjona as

00:24:58.160 --> 00:25:00.400
Wonder Woman, she'd be a great Wonder Woman.

00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:04.099
I've never heard of this person. I would have

00:25:04.099 --> 00:25:09.079
to click on her name to see what her actual credits

00:25:09.079 --> 00:25:12.599
actually are. Because literally this is the first

00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:16.460
time I've ever heard her name from anywhere.

00:25:19.220 --> 00:25:21.940
American Guatemalan actress known for a lot of

00:25:21.940 --> 00:25:28.740
roles. Screen debut in 2012. She was in the movie

00:25:28.740 --> 00:25:34.000
Hitman. Okay. She was in Andor. She was in Morbius.

00:25:34.079 --> 00:25:36.200
She was in Six Underground. She was in Father

00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:44.319
of the Bride in 2022. Yeah. Oh, she was. Okay.

00:25:44.380 --> 00:25:47.990
She was a million. Okay. She was a million. Okay.

00:25:48.049 --> 00:25:50.829
Yeah. Okay. She was in Book of Boba Fett. Yeah.

00:25:51.089 --> 00:25:55.069
Okay. Person of interest. Yeah. Yeah. All right.

00:25:55.170 --> 00:26:04.690
Cool. Cool. Yeah. Huh. Interesting. Okay. Sure.

00:26:06.630 --> 00:26:10.710
She's dating Jason Momoa. Nobody gives a rip.

00:26:11.109 --> 00:26:15.029
No, no, no. I find that interesting because he's

00:26:15.029 --> 00:26:19.789
Aquaman. well he's aquaman but he's playing lobo

00:26:19.789 --> 00:26:23.690
yeah that's true in the new dc universe with

00:26:23.690 --> 00:26:29.670
james gunn yep so yeah it might come with the

00:26:29.670 --> 00:26:34.170
territory yeah so but yeah i mean i'm i'm fine

00:26:34.170 --> 00:26:37.009
with it i think it'll be interesting to see i'm

00:26:37.009 --> 00:26:40.670
not so like dead set on who you know oh no it

00:26:40.670 --> 00:26:42.769
can only be this person who plays this no no

00:26:42.769 --> 00:26:46.119
no not at all um yeah I mean, I think it's great

00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:48.059
when, you know, you can't have a legacy actor

00:26:48.059 --> 00:26:49.859
continue to play the character, you know, such

00:26:49.859 --> 00:26:55.279
as like, um, Obi -Wan Kenobi and, you know, stuff

00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:59.200
like that, uh, from like Ewan McGregor and, you

00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:01.400
know, where, where you have other series that

00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:04.839
kind of continue on with same people. But I get

00:27:04.839 --> 00:27:07.039
it. Like every time somebody new gets in here,

00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:11.450
they're going to reboot it. And. Two to three

00:27:11.450 --> 00:27:13.349
films is about the max. We see somebody play

00:27:13.349 --> 00:27:20.809
a superhero in most cases. Yep. Marvel, notwithstanding,

00:27:20.890 --> 00:27:25.289
but true. Even the Sony stuff like you were good

00:27:25.289 --> 00:27:26.910
for two or three films and then it was like,

00:27:26.930 --> 00:27:31.970
all right, bye bye. So I'm I'm fine with this.

00:27:32.009 --> 00:27:33.970
Like, it'll be interesting to see somebody else

00:27:33.970 --> 00:27:38.630
take on the role. And. I've seen a lot of different.

00:27:39.450 --> 00:27:43.390
takes on like i remember years ago when they

00:27:43.390 --> 00:27:45.509
they had this like casting of who should play

00:27:45.509 --> 00:27:48.269
who and the guy that played the lone ranger was

00:27:48.269 --> 00:27:51.690
like on tap to possibly play batman and then

00:27:51.690 --> 00:27:57.569
yep um yeah so i mean i i'm i'm fine with it

00:27:57.569 --> 00:28:00.769
i think it'll be interesting either way yeah

00:28:00.769 --> 00:28:08.009
absolutely uh yeah very fun very fun And then,

00:28:08.049 --> 00:28:18.109
folks, we go to animation. Oh, boy. Marge Simpson

00:28:18.109 --> 00:28:26.230
dies tonight. Well, sort of. Yeah. They killed

00:28:26.230 --> 00:28:30.529
her off in the season 36 finale. Yeah. In a flash

00:28:30.529 --> 00:28:39.740
forward scene. Yeah. But yeah. It shows Bart

00:28:39.740 --> 00:28:41.859
and Lisa grow apart after they stop watching

00:28:41.859 --> 00:28:50.720
Itchy and Scratchy show. And then Marge thinks

00:28:50.720 --> 00:28:53.920
that they'll both become estranged and 35 years

00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:58.779
later she dies. And then it's funny because Homer

00:28:58.779 --> 00:29:06.240
looks the same age. Everybody else is old. But

00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:10.299
it says Homer is taken out of retirement home

00:29:10.299 --> 00:29:20.140
by the senior protective services. But yeah.

00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:26.099
I don't know. I haven't watched the show in ages,

00:29:26.140 --> 00:29:29.519
so it's kind of funny. I haven't either. I don't

00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:36.470
like if they do a specific spoof. I might watch

00:29:36.470 --> 00:29:40.970
a clip on YouTube, but I haven't actively watched

00:29:40.970 --> 00:29:53.710
The Simpsons since 1993. I think it stopped being

00:29:53.710 --> 00:30:05.170
relevant like 10, 15 years ago. I guess. Yeah.

00:30:05.599 --> 00:30:10.980
I don't know. It's interesting. What I find funny

00:30:10.980 --> 00:30:18.180
is when did this episode air? It aired like a

00:30:18.180 --> 00:30:26.200
week ago. Not even that. All the posts were coming

00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:31.690
out on June 25th. and we're sitting at june 30th

00:30:31.690 --> 00:30:34.049
here so it's it's been almost a week it will

00:30:34.049 --> 00:30:35.730
have been a week by the time you hear this episode

00:30:35.730 --> 00:30:42.369
yeah okay because uh the phineas and ferb season

00:30:42.369 --> 00:30:50.769
the phineas and ferb season five thing kind of

00:30:50.769 --> 00:30:53.589
did the same thing where they their mom disappeared

00:30:53.589 --> 00:30:56.690
too and it made it look like that one of their

00:30:56.690 --> 00:30:59.640
inventions killed her So they did kind of the

00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:05.000
same thing, which I find ironic considering Disney

00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:08.019
owns both Phineas and Ferb and The Simpsons.

00:31:11.380 --> 00:31:14.980
It's like, wait a minute, guys. Something wrong

00:31:14.980 --> 00:31:19.000
here. There are no new ideas, man. No new ideas.

00:31:19.400 --> 00:31:27.960
What would that be? I mean, yeah. i i've not

00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:31.859
been a fan of a lot of the tv stuff that marvel

00:31:31.859 --> 00:31:34.640
or not marvel disney or marvel whomever has been

00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:37.700
putting out like it's all been kind of yeah the

00:31:37.700 --> 00:31:40.000
original air date was may 18th so we are way

00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:43.759
safer for spoilers here I just find it funny

00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:46.559
that it got revealed later. Yeah. Like a month

00:31:46.559 --> 00:31:51.259
later. Usually it tells you how much people it

00:31:51.259 --> 00:31:53.099
somebody must have been like, hey, I think I'll

00:31:53.099 --> 00:31:55.220
watch the Simpsons finale again. And then they're

00:31:55.220 --> 00:32:01.740
like, oh, crap. Oh, crap. Yeah. It's crazy. Simply

00:32:01.740 --> 00:32:10.599
crazy. All right. Yeah. Moving on. I think we

00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:14.259
have a couple of other. yes minor clip it's here

00:32:14.259 --> 00:32:19.200
yep so the minor clip it's are the tom cruise

00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:22.940
youtube video thing where he lip syncs to the

00:32:22.940 --> 00:32:25.660
weekends can't feel my face song have you watched

00:32:25.660 --> 00:32:28.400
this i did it's entertaining yeah because it's

00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:31.779
tom cruise and it fits with with his 80s 90s

00:32:31.779 --> 00:32:35.880
aesthetic yeah yeah yeah what i think is hilarious

00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:41.450
is jimmy jimmy uh fallon's reaction to because

00:32:41.450 --> 00:32:44.490
like when the song starts he has his fingers

00:32:44.490 --> 00:32:47.829
up and like his two fingers are between jimmy's

00:32:47.829 --> 00:32:51.950
face and jimmy just cracking up i just find this

00:32:51.950 --> 00:32:54.289
absolutely this is one of those clips that does

00:32:54.289 --> 00:32:56.890
not need to die like i'm not gonna bring it up

00:32:56.890 --> 00:33:00.630
all the time but like it just is one of those

00:33:00.630 --> 00:33:03.150
things where people don't need to forget this

00:33:03.150 --> 00:33:06.269
because it's just so funny And then the other

00:33:06.269 --> 00:33:09.390
one, it's just a simple little thing. It's just

00:33:09.390 --> 00:33:14.210
them announcing that Lilo and Stitch 2 is in

00:33:14.210 --> 00:33:16.470
development and it's Stitch going around the

00:33:16.470 --> 00:33:20.509
studio in a car where I think it did say too

00:33:20.509 --> 00:33:24.250
fast at first. I was like, wait a minute. Is

00:33:24.250 --> 00:33:34.740
he going to be in Fast X Part 2? I really hope

00:33:34.740 --> 00:33:37.400
they don't call it Fast X Part 2. For God's sake,

00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:42.240
don't do that. Just call it Fast 11, damn it.

00:33:43.079 --> 00:33:45.299
You know they're bringing back Paul Walker. Yes,

00:33:45.299 --> 00:33:47.940
I was going to mention that. They're going to

00:33:47.940 --> 00:33:51.059
use his brothers again, probably. They're going

00:33:51.059 --> 00:33:53.859
to use mocap on his brothers and bring him back

00:33:53.859 --> 00:33:57.259
one more time. I just saw the clip or the news

00:33:57.259 --> 00:34:06.509
that Vin wants him back. yep which honestly i

00:34:06.509 --> 00:34:13.449
think is i think it's like why just let it go

00:34:13.449 --> 00:34:18.670
let it go dom come on man like i get it because

00:34:18.670 --> 00:34:21.829
they started the franchise together but paul's

00:34:21.829 --> 00:34:28.570
been dead for a decade now longer did he die

00:34:28.570 --> 00:34:31.030
because i know he died around the same time i

00:34:31.030 --> 00:34:39.389
died Which is 10 years ago, this past May. No,

00:34:39.510 --> 00:34:41.510
oh no, he died two years before my son died.

00:34:41.550 --> 00:34:45.989
He died in 2013. So, like, I don't know, dude.

00:34:48.550 --> 00:34:57.789
I... I don't know. I just don't know anymore.

00:34:59.650 --> 00:35:05.230
Nothing. yeah i stopped watching that like after

00:35:05.230 --> 00:35:10.010
the second film i would it's not a knock against

00:35:10.010 --> 00:35:12.650
it it really is i just i just lost interest it

00:35:12.650 --> 00:35:15.550
was more so that and then like i know three like

00:35:15.550 --> 00:35:18.190
was technically like a prequel or some sort or

00:35:18.190 --> 00:35:20.289
something and then it wasn't really a prequel

00:35:20.289 --> 00:35:25.849
three was out of so if you look at it in was

00:35:25.849 --> 00:35:28.130
it like david s pumpkins it was its own thing

00:35:28.130 --> 00:35:32.730
yeah kind of because because sean boswell or

00:35:32.730 --> 00:35:35.349
sean beeswell or whatever the sean character

00:35:35.349 --> 00:35:39.050
i don't know because honestly i i have seen tokyo

00:35:39.050 --> 00:35:43.570
drift exactly once in my lifetime and unfortunately

00:35:43.570 --> 00:35:46.090
here pretty soon i'm going to have to see it

00:35:46.090 --> 00:35:50.349
twice in my lifetime so here so well it's my

00:35:50.349 --> 00:35:54.550
own fault but um i know yeah so so here's the

00:35:54.550 --> 00:35:59.420
thing with tokyo drift originally As far as I

00:35:59.420 --> 00:36:04.460
know, Tokyo Drift was its own thing. We just

00:36:04.460 --> 00:36:06.800
assumed that they weren't going to do any more

00:36:06.800 --> 00:36:11.000
after Tokyo Drift, etc., etc., etc. They came

00:36:11.000 --> 00:36:14.659
back with a vengeance in 2009. Tokyo Drift was

00:36:14.659 --> 00:36:19.239
2006. They came back with a vengeance with Fast

00:36:19.239 --> 00:36:24.360
and Furious 4 in 2009. 2011 was Fast 5. Yada,

00:36:24.360 --> 00:36:28.400
yada, yada. Fast 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. Well, they

00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:32.719
haven't done 11 yet, but basically the events

00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:38.099
of Video Drift fit in between Fast 6 and Fast

00:36:38.099 --> 00:36:41.719
and Furious 7. And the reason why they do that

00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:49.820
is because at the end of Fast 6, you see Deckard

00:36:49.820 --> 00:36:54.059
Shaw, who is Owen Shaw's old brother. Deckard

00:36:54.059 --> 00:36:59.329
is played by Statham. You see him in Tokyo, quote

00:36:59.329 --> 00:37:06.050
-unquote, killing Han, who is the character that

00:37:06.050 --> 00:37:12.570
was in Tokyo Drift. I say, quote -unquote, killing

00:37:12.570 --> 00:37:16.210
Han because he's not really dead. Spoiler, not

00:37:16.210 --> 00:37:20.969
spoiler, because I know you don't care. So that's

00:37:20.969 --> 00:37:24.269
how they made it fit into the franchise story.

00:37:25.289 --> 00:37:29.650
So technically, the franchise goes 1, 2, 4, 5,

00:37:29.650 --> 00:37:36.210
6, 3, 7, 8, 9, Hobbs & Shaw, 10, and then 11,

00:37:36.329 --> 00:37:38.630
and hopefully they'll really actually be done

00:37:38.630 --> 00:37:42.769
at 11, because that's what Diesel has said, 11

00:37:42.769 --> 00:37:52.130
is the last film. Hopefully. Speaking of films

00:37:52.130 --> 00:37:57.719
and stuff, and... Marvel vs. DC and everything

00:37:57.719 --> 00:38:07.980
else. So we have... We have news of Marvel doing

00:38:07.980 --> 00:38:14.099
their own film re -release. Because Marvel actually

00:38:14.099 --> 00:38:17.360
loves their fans, and they want their fans to

00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:22.670
be, you know, happy. And they want their fans

00:38:22.670 --> 00:38:28.329
to actually see their movies in theaters. Fucking

00:38:28.329 --> 00:38:34.130
DC. Release the Schumacher cut, you bastards.

00:38:36.469 --> 00:38:40.130
They will after they get bought. Who's buying

00:38:40.130 --> 00:38:44.829
DC? No, I'm just saying, like, Warner Brothers.

00:38:44.949 --> 00:38:49.500
Warner Brothers here. Yeah, that's true. Okay,

00:38:49.579 --> 00:38:53.039
so Sam Raimi's Spider -Man trilogy returns to

00:38:53.039 --> 00:38:58.360
theaters. The success of Spider -Man in 2002

00:38:58.360 --> 00:39:01.239
helped launch the modern era of superhero films.

00:39:02.099 --> 00:39:05.219
All eight live -action Spider -Man movies returned

00:39:05.219 --> 00:39:08.280
to theaters last spring, much to the delight

00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:11.920
of fans. The re -releases racked up millions

00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:15.800
of dollars in ticket revenue. Yada, yada, yada,

00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:19.460
yada, yada. It does not say when. that the three

00:39:19.460 --> 00:39:24.199
will release, but they are re -releasing in theaters

00:39:24.199 --> 00:39:32.719
this fall. So that's the big news there, which

00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:37.460
is just like Marvel to actually care about their

00:39:37.460 --> 00:39:41.079
fans, unlike DC, who doesn't give two shits about

00:39:41.079 --> 00:39:45.800
their Batman Forever fan people. What's it going

00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:47.679
to hurt you, DC? It's actually going to make

00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:52.920
you money if you release it. You know that old

00:39:52.920 --> 00:39:56.460
saying, if we build it, they will come. If you

00:39:56.460 --> 00:39:58.780
re -release it, they're going to buy the fucking

00:39:58.780 --> 00:40:02.480
tickets, you idiots. Well, movie theaters are

00:40:02.480 --> 00:40:04.159
kind of on their way out anyway. Yeah, I know.

00:40:04.460 --> 00:40:08.099
But the same token, people were like, give us

00:40:08.099 --> 00:40:13.369
the Snyder Cut. And DC was like, yeah, nice,

00:40:13.670 --> 00:40:19.869
nice, nice try, guys. All right. So here we go.

00:40:20.150 --> 00:40:24.269
Marvel phases four and five. I'm going to run

00:40:24.269 --> 00:40:28.090
down the quick list for films and TV shows for

00:40:28.090 --> 00:40:31.550
each phase. I think we should also mention which

00:40:31.550 --> 00:40:33.929
ones we watched and which ones we enjoyed after

00:40:33.929 --> 00:40:36.550
you list them. Well, yes, we will. That's that's

00:40:36.550 --> 00:40:38.610
the point. But I just want to get the list out

00:40:38.610 --> 00:40:42.630
first. We'll list movies first, and then we'll

00:40:42.630 --> 00:40:46.110
say our favorites and least favorites, and then

00:40:46.110 --> 00:40:48.130
ones we haven't even watched, because there are

00:40:48.130 --> 00:40:52.789
some that I haven't even watched. And then we'll,

00:40:52.809 --> 00:40:58.250
yeah, so. All right, phase four. This is phase

00:40:58.250 --> 00:41:01.909
four, correct? Yes, phase four. Make sure I hit

00:41:01.909 --> 00:41:05.630
the right link. Do your job, Mike. Do your job.

00:41:05.650 --> 00:41:09.039
All right, in phase four. Ehad, Black Widow,

00:41:09.039 --> 00:41:13.400
Shang -Chi, The Eternals, Spider -Man No Way

00:41:13.400 --> 00:41:16.000
Home, Doctor Strange and the Monsters of Madness,

00:41:16.219 --> 00:41:20.500
Thor Love and Thunder, and Black Burp and Wakanda

00:41:20.500 --> 00:41:29.340
Forever. So that's Black Widow, Shang -Chi, Eternals,

00:41:29.340 --> 00:41:33.820
No Way Home, Doctor Strange 2, Thor Love and

00:41:33.820 --> 00:41:36.420
Thunder, and Black Panther and Wakanda Forever.

00:41:36.989 --> 00:41:45.090
What do you got? So. I watched. I watched Black

00:41:45.090 --> 00:41:47.849
Widow, Spider -Man No Way Home, Doctor Strange,

00:41:48.070 --> 00:41:52.989
Thor out of these grouping, Shang -Chi and Eternals.

00:41:52.989 --> 00:41:58.909
I just didn't care. Again, third tier characters.

00:42:00.530 --> 00:42:07.150
Black Panther. I was interested. when we had

00:42:07.150 --> 00:42:11.289
the original actor yeah after that point i just

00:42:11.289 --> 00:42:16.030
didn't care anymore um not that that one would

00:42:16.030 --> 00:42:19.050
have been bad i i probably would have cared about

00:42:19.050 --> 00:42:21.989
that just because like they were some of the

00:42:21.989 --> 00:42:25.869
stronger parts of the infinity war and end game

00:42:25.869 --> 00:42:30.949
um just from part of the roles that they played

00:42:31.650 --> 00:42:35.469
But out of these that that I've seen, the only

00:42:35.469 --> 00:42:38.909
like Black Widow was really good. Gave us kind

00:42:38.909 --> 00:42:41.630
of a glimpse of, you know, during the blip. Yeah.

00:42:41.690 --> 00:42:50.550
And then or at least pre blip because. Romanoff's

00:42:50.550 --> 00:42:56.130
sister, you know, Yelena disappeared during the

00:42:56.130 --> 00:43:02.670
blip. Yep. So this was pre blip. But anyways,

00:43:02.949 --> 00:43:07.170
I found that film to be really entertaining,

00:43:07.349 --> 00:43:09.710
really good. And then Spider -Man No Way Home

00:43:09.710 --> 00:43:14.929
was like. My absolute favorite of that year.

00:43:16.190 --> 00:43:25.969
Of that of that phase was because. We got. We

00:43:25.969 --> 00:43:30.320
got all of the Spider -Man. Yep. So that that

00:43:30.320 --> 00:43:34.360
was like, OK, we're paying tribute to all of

00:43:34.360 --> 00:43:37.780
the previous Spider -Man. Yeah, pretty much so.

00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:41.059
And my favorite was always like the Tobey Maguire

00:43:41.059 --> 00:43:43.940
Spider -Man. So that that in essence and then

00:43:43.940 --> 00:43:46.800
the William Dafoe Green Goblin and, you know,

00:43:46.820 --> 00:43:50.300
Otto Octavius. And so I really enjoyed it. And

00:43:50.300 --> 00:43:52.860
that that for me was like the icing on the cake

00:43:52.860 --> 00:43:56.860
for for my favorite of that that phase. Doctor

00:43:56.860 --> 00:44:00.820
Strange was weird. And I liked some of the fan

00:44:00.820 --> 00:44:02.739
moments, especially with the parallel universe

00:44:02.739 --> 00:44:04.800
and, you know, the Reed Richards and Professor

00:44:04.800 --> 00:44:08.119
X and things like that. But again, they just

00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:11.599
love to kill Patrick Stewart as Professor X because

00:44:11.599 --> 00:44:14.440
it happened in X3. It happened in Multiverse

00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:18.679
of Madness and it happened in Logan. So we were

00:44:18.679 --> 00:44:22.179
three for three at that point. Or Patrick. Thor

00:44:22.179 --> 00:44:25.500
would have been OK, but it was just too goofy.

00:44:26.740 --> 00:44:30.099
more than ragnarok ragnarok fit this was just

00:44:30.099 --> 00:44:34.760
like okay we're stretching it yeah so but yeah

00:44:34.760 --> 00:44:37.199
those those out of those films like spider -man

00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:39.360
no way home and black widow were my favorite

00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:43.000
yep i have only seen black widow and spider -man

00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:46.480
no way home i don't care about any of the other

00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:52.739
films in phase four i black panther wakanda forever

00:44:52.739 --> 00:44:57.760
i might watch just to see how that story kind

00:44:57.760 --> 00:45:03.539
of concludes kind of thing but i don't feel like

00:45:03.539 --> 00:45:07.460
it's something i absolutely have to watch i was

00:45:07.460 --> 00:45:10.679
done with thor after the dark world i did watch

00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:14.659
ragnarok i thought ragnarok was the best out

00:45:14.659 --> 00:45:17.219
of the thor movies i thought if they did another

00:45:17.219 --> 00:45:20.460
thor movie it would only go downhill from here

00:45:20.460 --> 00:45:22.900
and from what you've said and from what others

00:45:22.900 --> 00:45:27.119
have told me I was right. I'm not judging it

00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:29.619
based on something I have not seen. I'm just

00:45:29.619 --> 00:45:32.280
judging it based on your opinion and what others

00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:35.599
have told me. So I'm not making my own assumptions

00:45:35.599 --> 00:45:38.579
on something I have not watched. I'm just going

00:45:38.579 --> 00:45:43.460
off of what others have said. But I had zero

00:45:43.460 --> 00:45:47.519
interest in Shang -Chi. I had zero interest in

00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:53.769
the Eternals. I don't know. I just had no interest

00:45:53.769 --> 00:45:57.389
in either of those. Black Widow I really enjoyed.

00:45:57.570 --> 00:46:02.289
Black Widow I wish had come out so much earlier

00:46:02.289 --> 00:46:05.750
than when it did as far as the continuity of

00:46:05.750 --> 00:46:12.730
the film itself. But it is what it is. So that's

00:46:12.730 --> 00:46:18.150
the Phase 4 films. Here is the Phase 4 television

00:46:18.150 --> 00:46:22.619
series. We have... WandaVision, Falcon and the

00:46:22.619 --> 00:46:26.960
Winter Soldier, Loki Season 1. These are all

00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:33.500
Season 1. What If, Hawkeye, Moon Knight, Ms.

00:46:33.599 --> 00:46:42.619
Marvel, and She -Hulk, Attorney at Law. So, out

00:46:42.619 --> 00:46:52.119
of this batch, I... I watched WandaVision. I

00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:54.880
watched Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki,

00:46:55.019 --> 00:47:00.019
What If, Hawkeye, and She -Hulk. Ms. Marvel didn't

00:47:00.019 --> 00:47:02.880
interest me whatsoever. Moon Knight really didn't

00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:08.719
interest me whatsoever. I enjoyed WandaVision

00:47:08.719 --> 00:47:13.920
for what it was. Didn't love it, but it was better

00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:17.579
than what they did to her character in Doctor

00:47:17.579 --> 00:47:21.530
Strange. Yeah. and the multiverse of madness

00:47:21.530 --> 00:47:23.989
the falcon and the winter soldier was okay had

00:47:23.989 --> 00:47:28.409
they just kept it to um to falcon and the winter

00:47:28.409 --> 00:47:31.849
soldier yeah instead of all the other people

00:47:31.849 --> 00:47:36.289
that they added uh that later became a part of

00:47:36.289 --> 00:47:42.349
phase five um loki was a slow burn season one

00:47:42.349 --> 00:47:48.980
i kind of was like okay like it got better. And

00:47:48.980 --> 00:47:53.179
then when they, they brought in Kane, uh, I think,

00:47:53.179 --> 00:47:57.800
I think that's his name. Kang. Kang. Yeah. I,

00:47:57.880 --> 00:48:02.920
you can tell how much I cared. Um, I, I didn't

00:48:02.920 --> 00:48:04.599
care for his character whatsoever. Didn't like

00:48:04.599 --> 00:48:06.639
the actor. Didn't like portrayal, whatever. I

00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:09.159
just didn't care for it. Uh, what if I enjoyed

00:48:09.159 --> 00:48:14.280
Hawkeye? Enjoyed she Hulk. I tried. It was trying

00:48:14.280 --> 00:48:17.880
way too hard. And so in that, I didn't care for

00:48:17.880 --> 00:48:22.639
it either. So out of this batch, the only ones

00:48:22.639 --> 00:48:27.699
I really enjoyed were What If and Hawkeye. I

00:48:27.699 --> 00:48:33.199
liked WandaVision for the psychology of it all,

00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:38.300
to see what she was dealing with. But in general,

00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:45.280
I'm not... The... The easiest way I can equate

00:48:45.280 --> 00:48:48.559
this is you take Lord of the Rings and put it

00:48:48.559 --> 00:48:50.619
on one side and you take Star Wars and put it

00:48:50.619 --> 00:48:52.380
on the other side. I'm going to choose Star Wars

00:48:52.380 --> 00:48:56.079
every day. So you take something like WandaVision

00:48:56.079 --> 00:48:59.539
and Falcon and Winter. I'm going to pick Falcon

00:48:59.539 --> 00:49:03.639
and Winter every day of the week. Or even if

00:49:03.639 --> 00:49:06.719
you want to take WandaVision and put Hawkeye

00:49:06.719 --> 00:49:08.820
on the other side of that, I'll take Hawkeye

00:49:08.820 --> 00:49:12.300
every day of the week. I didn't dislike WandaVision.

00:49:12.960 --> 00:49:17.840
I enjoyed it for what it was, but it just wasn't...

00:49:17.840 --> 00:49:32.940
I don't know. I'm not... I'm more Batman than

00:49:32.940 --> 00:49:36.239
Jason the Magic Boy, his adversary that he goes

00:49:36.239 --> 00:49:42.150
up against sometimes. So there's that. Falcon

00:49:42.150 --> 00:49:44.650
and winter. I really enjoyed what I really enjoyed

00:49:44.650 --> 00:49:48.250
about Falcon and winter was the two of them constantly

00:49:48.250 --> 00:49:53.710
arguing like a bitter old married couple. Like

00:49:53.710 --> 00:49:59.010
those counseling sessions in that show, the therapist

00:49:59.010 --> 00:50:02.929
sessions between the two of them. Oh, good fun

00:50:02.929 --> 00:50:07.380
right there. I did not watch Loki because I don't

00:50:07.380 --> 00:50:09.519
care about Loki as a character. I never have

00:50:09.519 --> 00:50:12.980
cared about Loki as a character. The less Loki

00:50:12.980 --> 00:50:17.400
I see in the Marvel Universe, the better. I was

00:50:17.400 --> 00:50:19.780
done with Loki after the very first Avengers

00:50:19.780 --> 00:50:25.320
movie. If Loki just fell into the Earth's core

00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:32.030
and died, I would not care. What If is amazing.

00:50:32.309 --> 00:50:34.550
All three seasons, even though I haven't watched

00:50:34.550 --> 00:50:36.889
the third season yet, but the first two seasons

00:50:36.889 --> 00:50:40.530
of What If, simply amazing. I can't wait to finally

00:50:40.530 --> 00:50:45.369
get a chance to watch the third season. Hawkeye

00:50:45.369 --> 00:50:50.869
is great. Absolutely love Hawkeye. Kate is hilarious.

00:50:51.730 --> 00:50:54.869
Kate and Clint together are even more hilarious.

00:50:55.050 --> 00:50:58.849
Absolutely love that. I'm not a Moon Knight or

00:50:58.849 --> 00:51:02.900
Ms. Marvel fan. I just didn't get into those

00:51:02.900 --> 00:51:06.820
shows. And I am actually waiting to watch She

00:51:06.820 --> 00:51:11.719
-Hulk with the Chaos Queen. So, yeah, I'll have

00:51:11.719 --> 00:51:16.179
to reserve judgment on She -Hulk. So that is

00:51:16.179 --> 00:51:21.579
Marvel Phase 4. All right, getting into Phase

00:51:21.579 --> 00:51:25.980
5 with the film. I forgot that Phase 5 actually

00:51:25.980 --> 00:51:29.880
started with Ant -Man. And the wasp, Quantumania.

00:51:31.940 --> 00:51:35.780
Shoot me now. Don't wait till you get home. Shoot

00:51:35.780 --> 00:51:40.460
me now. I stopped watching the Ant -Man movies

00:51:40.460 --> 00:51:44.079
after the Ant -Man. I could give two craps less

00:51:44.079 --> 00:51:48.559
about Ant -Man and his Quantumania of whatever.

00:51:49.760 --> 00:51:57.400
So I didn't watch that one. I'll just come out

00:51:57.400 --> 00:51:59.599
and say it. The only movie I've seen in phase

00:51:59.599 --> 00:52:04.420
five so far is Deadpool. I kind of had interest

00:52:04.420 --> 00:52:07.219
in watching them. I don't know if I'll watch

00:52:07.219 --> 00:52:10.440
the models. I know I want to watch Brave New

00:52:10.440 --> 00:52:12.519
World and I know I want to watch Thunderbolts.

00:52:16.260 --> 00:52:20.000
So that's my experience with the phase five films

00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:29.019
to this point. So. I have watched Ant -Man 3.

00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:42.599
I had started Guardians 3. And then I watched

00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:47.000
Deadpool and Wolverine. And then I've had no

00:52:47.000 --> 00:52:53.760
interest in the rest. The Marvels, I didn't like

00:52:53.760 --> 00:52:58.829
Captain Marvel anyway. And I just honestly didn't

00:52:58.829 --> 00:53:05.349
like. The premise, so I just didn't care. And.

00:53:07.389 --> 00:53:09.610
Kind of the same thing with like Guardians of

00:53:09.610 --> 00:53:13.369
the Galaxy three, I just lost interest. Captain

00:53:13.369 --> 00:53:16.750
America Brave New World with the amount of reshoots

00:53:16.750 --> 00:53:21.489
that we'd heard that they'd had and. I just it's

00:53:21.489 --> 00:53:25.429
just not the same. But it's nothing against it's

00:53:25.429 --> 00:53:28.369
nothing against Falcon. It's, it's, it's nothing

00:53:28.369 --> 00:53:32.309
against the actor. Cause like, I, I think he

00:53:32.309 --> 00:53:34.329
would do fine. I just think that there was a

00:53:34.329 --> 00:53:38.090
lot of. Okay. But the reshoots and all of that

00:53:38.090 --> 00:53:42.429
and whatever else that they had to do, we don't

00:53:42.429 --> 00:53:45.090
know what that original movie was going to be.

00:53:45.829 --> 00:53:48.670
So whatever reshoots they had to do, whatever

00:53:48.670 --> 00:53:51.550
movie they ended up giving us, that's the movie

00:53:51.550 --> 00:53:54.829
we got. It's kind of, I know I, it's not what

00:53:54.829 --> 00:53:58.429
I'm. Okay, so what are you trying to say? It's

00:53:58.429 --> 00:54:00.210
not what I'm beating it up for. I just think

00:54:00.210 --> 00:54:09.130
that it... Yes, they brought in things like adamantium

00:54:09.130 --> 00:54:14.329
and, you know, other things to kind of bring

00:54:14.329 --> 00:54:19.369
aspects of the pre -MCU parts of this into the

00:54:19.369 --> 00:54:27.320
MCU. Yeah. But... I think that they're I mean,

00:54:27.340 --> 00:54:29.900
yeah, they're setting him up, you know, Wilson,

00:54:29.960 --> 00:54:34.519
obviously, to become Captain America here, like

00:54:34.519 --> 00:54:36.900
officially outside of Falcon and the Winter Soldier

00:54:36.900 --> 00:54:42.340
and and to kind of tee up the multiversal battle.

00:54:42.460 --> 00:54:46.440
Yeah, but I just I don't know. I just it didn't.

00:54:47.159 --> 00:54:52.400
The trailers didn't do it any favors. In my opinion.

00:54:52.460 --> 00:54:55.039
And then Thunderbolts, I just didn't care to

00:54:55.039 --> 00:54:57.880
have one. Then they got the asterisk on there

00:54:57.880 --> 00:54:59.840
because they're like, oh, the new Avengers. Yeah.

00:55:01.880 --> 00:55:05.300
And I know it takes place after the Captain America

00:55:05.300 --> 00:55:12.860
Brave New World. Yeah. I. I don't. I don't love

00:55:12.860 --> 00:55:15.940
the aspect of them being the new Avengers. Well,

00:55:16.059 --> 00:55:19.199
OK, so the and it kind of rubbed me wrong that

00:55:19.199 --> 00:55:25.340
it's more like more like Suicide Squad. So for

00:55:25.340 --> 00:55:27.699
me, in essence, yeah, in essence, you're right,

00:55:27.780 --> 00:55:30.739
because that's kind of what it is. But here's

00:55:30.739 --> 00:55:38.199
the thing. I care more about Yelena. And Red

00:55:38.199 --> 00:55:44.469
Guardian. than any single member on the Suicide

00:55:44.469 --> 00:55:52.309
Squad ever. I've never cared, never cared about

00:55:52.309 --> 00:55:57.010
any of the members on the Suicide Squad. Yeah,

00:55:57.130 --> 00:55:59.650
you got Deadshot in there. Yeah, you got King

00:55:59.650 --> 00:56:02.949
Shark in there. Yeah, you got, who's the other

00:56:02.949 --> 00:56:06.980
guy? Captain Boomerang. You've got Captain Cold

00:56:06.980 --> 00:56:10.300
sometimes. Captain Cold, maybe. I've cared about

00:56:10.300 --> 00:56:12.059
him a couple. Let me get Harley Quinn. Yeah,

00:56:12.059 --> 00:56:17.219
you got Harley. Okay, sure. A stand -in for Yelena.

00:56:17.219 --> 00:56:20.719
Sure, fine, whatever. Vice versa, if you really

00:56:20.719 --> 00:56:25.059
want to say. But, like, I don't know, man. And

00:56:25.059 --> 00:56:28.780
I think for me, the biggest thing, and I don't

00:56:28.780 --> 00:56:34.780
have my phone with me. I'll have to. They use

00:56:34.780 --> 00:56:41.619
the song in the trailers by some band. And I'll

00:56:41.619 --> 00:56:45.079
have to figure it out later. And it just kind

00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:52.400
of... Those trailers where she's just letting

00:56:52.400 --> 00:56:56.820
go and just diving off that building. That swan

00:56:56.820 --> 00:57:00.960
dive off the building. Just, ugh. It just sunk

00:57:00.960 --> 00:57:04.440
me in to wanting to watch that damn movie. It

00:57:04.440 --> 00:57:12.460
really did. And I'll tell you all now, the single

00:57:12.460 --> 00:57:20.059
reason why I am not actively paying attention

00:57:20.059 --> 00:57:29.380
to the films directly is because At some point,

00:57:29.440 --> 00:57:38.679
probably next year, Studio 2009 is going to go

00:57:38.679 --> 00:57:41.920
through the whole cinematic universe from the

00:57:41.920 --> 00:57:50.659
beginning. Films and shows in story order. It's

00:57:50.659 --> 00:57:53.739
going to be the big thing for Studio 2009, 2026.

00:57:55.210 --> 00:57:57.510
i don't know who's gonna be on it with me and

00:57:57.510 --> 00:58:00.449
it can be rotating because i know not everybody

00:58:00.449 --> 00:58:02.650
would be welcome to do rotating because like

00:58:02.650 --> 00:58:08.769
there's some of these yeah no i'm i how long

00:58:08.769 --> 00:58:12.110
you know me like i would make you watch everything

00:58:12.110 --> 00:58:15.429
you gotta be kidding me come on dude no i that's

00:58:15.429 --> 00:58:17.710
why i said it's going to be rotating because

00:58:17.710 --> 00:58:21.469
i know not everyone likes but my thing is i want

00:58:21.469 --> 00:58:26.099
to explore it all So for me, it has to be everything.

00:58:26.480 --> 00:58:29.800
For everybody else, you pick and choose what

00:58:29.800 --> 00:58:36.480
you want. And we go from there. But I've been

00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:39.719
thinking about this for years. Because we tried

00:58:39.719 --> 00:58:42.559
doing this years ago when they first started.

00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:46.380
I remember on MWire. We tried doing Iron Man

00:58:46.380 --> 00:58:50.500
1, 2, 3. We did Avengers. We did this. We did

00:58:50.500 --> 00:58:54.119
that. yada yada yada yada yada we did batman

00:58:54.119 --> 00:58:57.780
begins dark knight and dark knight rises and

00:58:57.780 --> 00:59:03.119
here we are 20 freaking years later getting ready

00:59:03.119 --> 00:59:07.280
to do one podcast in a couple of weeks talking

00:59:07.280 --> 00:59:09.940
about the 20th anniversary and we're going to

00:59:09.940 --> 00:59:12.699
talk about all three films because 20th anniversary

00:59:12.699 --> 00:59:16.099
of batman begins is this year i'm sure the actual

00:59:16.099 --> 00:59:22.119
date has already passed but 2025 2005 It is the

00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:32.139
year 2005. Don't zipper it in me. I'll do what

00:59:32.139 --> 00:59:34.219
I want. I was putting something in my backpack.

00:59:36.039 --> 00:59:39.320
Anyways, yeah, I mean, as far as the films are

00:59:39.320 --> 00:59:44.820
concerned, there's a lot that I don't care for

00:59:44.820 --> 00:59:47.920
in the later, you know, phase four and five.

00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:54.690
Yeah. And then Phase 5 TV shows. Make sure. Yep.

00:59:54.750 --> 01:00:01.710
Phase 5. Series. Phase 5 TV series include. Sorry

01:00:01.710 --> 01:00:05.429
to cut you off. Nope. Secret Invasion, Loki,

01:00:05.710 --> 01:00:11.329
What If, Seasons 2 and 3, Echo, Season 1, Agatha

01:00:11.329 --> 01:00:13.570
All Along, Season 1, Your Friendly Neighbor,

01:00:13.610 --> 01:00:17.349
Spider -Man, Daredevil, Born Again, and Ironheart.

01:00:17.449 --> 01:00:22.050
Ironheart. debuted today, actually. Well, by

01:00:22.050 --> 01:00:23.809
the time you people are hearing it, it debuted

01:00:23.809 --> 01:00:36.010
July 1st. You need that list again? No, no. I

01:00:36.010 --> 01:00:43.469
watched Secret Invasion. I did not enjoy it,

01:00:43.510 --> 01:00:47.030
especially what they kind of I enjoyed part of

01:00:47.030 --> 01:00:50.690
it. Like the very end. But I didn't like how

01:00:50.690 --> 01:00:55.769
they kind of ruined Nick Fury. Yeah. Otherwise,

01:00:56.949 --> 01:01:00.309
it was decent. Loki season two was pretty good.

01:01:00.849 --> 01:01:05.110
What if season two and three? Great. Ended it

01:01:05.110 --> 01:01:08.530
on a pretty good note. Echo didn't care. Agatha

01:01:08.530 --> 01:01:13.150
all along really didn't care. The friendly neighborhood

01:01:13.150 --> 01:01:17.139
Spider -Man kind of irrelevant to. You know,

01:01:17.159 --> 01:01:21.639
I just didn't care. Daredevil. I know a lot of

01:01:21.639 --> 01:01:23.940
people love that, especially the fact that they

01:01:23.940 --> 01:01:27.699
brought him back from the the old ABC cinema

01:01:27.699 --> 01:01:33.219
or, you know, ABC Universe or Netflix or whatever.

01:01:33.340 --> 01:01:36.340
Yep. And then and then there's Ironheart, which

01:01:36.340 --> 01:01:41.360
I don't care. But. And Daredevil's already kind

01:01:41.360 --> 01:01:46.949
of shown up in. Spider -Man. yeah no way home

01:01:46.949 --> 01:01:53.489
and uh so i mean he's he's in the mcu uh the

01:01:53.489 --> 01:01:56.190
other ones like i just none of them i really

01:01:56.190 --> 01:01:59.210
felt resonated with me like so honestly out of

01:01:59.210 --> 01:02:03.489
this group it'd be loki and what if yeah like

01:02:03.489 --> 01:02:05.230
i i could go without the rest of them and not

01:02:05.230 --> 01:02:07.610
care because in the grand scheme of things i

01:02:07.610 --> 01:02:10.789
don't feel like a lot of these outside of like

01:02:10.789 --> 01:02:15.739
daredevil and loki are really going to play any

01:02:15.739 --> 01:02:21.519
role in what's coming down the pipe well i thought

01:02:21.519 --> 01:02:23.559
echo was going to because that's a part of the

01:02:23.559 --> 01:02:30.119
daredevil world um but uh yeah i secret invasion

01:02:30.119 --> 01:02:33.460
i thought was going to be better because it was

01:02:33.460 --> 01:02:36.039
nick fury and it was based on the whole thing

01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:38.579
and i thought it was going to lead to have some

01:02:38.579 --> 01:02:44.380
sort of lead up to secret war What if season

01:02:44.380 --> 01:02:47.619
two I've seen? I loved it. I need to see season

01:02:47.619 --> 01:02:50.019
three. I'm sure I'm going to love it, but I love

01:02:50.019 --> 01:02:54.760
the what if animated series. And yeah, the rest

01:02:54.760 --> 01:02:57.440
of it, I have not seen any of it yet. I want

01:02:57.440 --> 01:02:59.940
to see Friendly Neighborhood Spider -Man. I think

01:02:59.940 --> 01:03:06.940
that's going to be really cool. So, yeah. The

01:03:06.940 --> 01:03:09.380
only thing I probably will not watch, obviously,

01:03:09.380 --> 01:03:12.739
is Loki. and agatha because i just don't care

01:03:12.739 --> 01:03:17.900
loki is the only one that i could see making

01:03:17.900 --> 01:03:21.420
sense from the multiversal standpoint right it

01:03:21.420 --> 01:03:26.000
also in order to fully understand deadpool and

01:03:26.000 --> 01:03:28.280
wolverine i feel like you have to have watched

01:03:28.280 --> 01:03:35.000
loki to fully understand what they're doing with

01:03:35.000 --> 01:03:39.579
the multiverse crap Because a lot of the characters

01:03:39.579 --> 01:03:43.579
from the TBA, it's all relative and kind of ties

01:03:43.579 --> 01:03:52.500
over. The Kang the Conqueror stuff, it ends up

01:03:52.500 --> 01:03:57.960
being irrelevant because he wrote himself out

01:03:57.960 --> 01:04:04.239
by, you know, getting fired. He got fired. He

01:04:04.239 --> 01:04:11.599
got fired. But no, I mean. They and they kind

01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:15.340
of. By the end of season two of Loki, like they

01:04:15.340 --> 01:04:16.699
already knew they were firing him and he was

01:04:16.699 --> 01:04:18.800
already gone, and so Loki essentially takes on

01:04:18.800 --> 01:04:24.260
the mantle. And that's he's the one holding the

01:04:24.260 --> 01:04:28.079
universe together. So he becomes like goes from

01:04:28.079 --> 01:04:31.360
like kind of villain to like anti hero to hero.

01:04:31.519 --> 01:04:35.420
Yeah. So it's a redemption arc for Loki. And

01:04:35.420 --> 01:04:38.699
so in that manner, I feel like they kind of redeemed

01:04:38.699 --> 01:04:42.480
him, but it was in a tasteful manner that he.

01:04:43.639 --> 01:04:46.300
The struggle he has to go through to get there,

01:04:46.420 --> 01:04:51.860
I feel like it was earned. And when he gets to

01:04:51.860 --> 01:04:54.159
see Thor again and some of the others, like he'll

01:04:54.159 --> 01:04:55.760
have a deeper appreciation for the Avengers.

01:04:57.659 --> 01:05:01.500
So it may actually be him plucking. alternate

01:05:01.500 --> 01:05:06.179
versions of the avengers that are dead to fight

01:05:06.179 --> 01:05:11.380
doom i guess i don't know i could i could see

01:05:11.380 --> 01:05:14.039
this i could see him being more important in

01:05:14.039 --> 01:05:19.079
the the final unraveling of the the multiverse

01:05:19.079 --> 01:05:23.699
right now he's kind of sitting on his tree throne

01:05:23.699 --> 01:05:27.900
you know that he's and he's kind of like the

01:05:27.900 --> 01:05:30.159
Madam Web of the universe, like observing things

01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:34.860
from the outside. I mean, when I say Madam Web,

01:05:34.920 --> 01:05:37.400
I mean from like the 90s. I know, I know what

01:05:37.400 --> 01:05:42.480
you're talking about, but no. So I feel like

01:05:42.480 --> 01:05:44.780
that one's more deserved. The rest of them, I

01:05:44.780 --> 01:05:53.480
don't care. Yeah, I don't know. It's going to

01:05:53.480 --> 01:05:56.239
be interesting to see where it goes. That's all

01:05:56.239 --> 01:06:08.400
I know. So that's all I got. Oh, did you see

01:06:08.400 --> 01:06:13.159
the other tirade? What? Oh, wait a minute. What

01:06:13.159 --> 01:06:16.659
did I miss? You missed something and it came

01:06:16.659 --> 01:06:18.260
out. It has nothing to do with the Marvel Cinematic

01:06:18.260 --> 01:06:22.619
Universe. This is this is just a. tangent that

01:06:22.619 --> 01:06:26.360
we can we can touch on in the future on all things

01:06:26.360 --> 01:06:31.739
transformers oh no they're discussing bringing

01:06:31.739 --> 01:06:35.960
michael bay back oh yes there is that too to

01:06:35.960 --> 01:06:38.719
the franchise and it's funny because even comicbook

01:06:38.719 --> 01:06:42.159
.com goes the transformers franchise is dead

01:06:42.159 --> 01:06:45.539
if michael bay returns yes yes yes it says if

01:06:45.539 --> 01:06:47.420
michael bay returns and the transformers movies

01:06:47.420 --> 01:06:51.230
truly are dead and buried uh Because honestly,

01:06:51.389 --> 01:06:57.929
I was done with it. They're even saying returning

01:06:57.929 --> 01:07:00.170
to the old is a sign of creative stagnation.

01:07:00.269 --> 01:07:06.630
I think Transformers 1 got a bad rap. It got

01:07:06.630 --> 01:07:09.050
a horrible rap because of poor marketing. And

01:07:09.050 --> 01:07:10.670
they're like, oh, well, we want to see explosions.

01:07:10.969 --> 01:07:12.710
There were plenty of explosions. Where were you?

01:07:13.110 --> 01:07:16.110
Yeah, where were you? It was well written. The

01:07:16.110 --> 01:07:18.190
animation was good. You could clearly hear them.

01:07:18.329 --> 01:07:22.780
You could clearly see them. Yeah, it, it didn't

01:07:22.780 --> 01:07:25.320
need to be like, we don't need a crossover. Like

01:07:25.320 --> 01:07:27.559
even they even have an article saying transformers

01:07:27.559 --> 01:07:30.519
and GI Joe don't need a crossover. Yep. Nope.

01:07:32.199 --> 01:07:39.019
Uh, the, um, what was the third or something

01:07:39.019 --> 01:07:43.920
else with that? Oh, these people now having to.

01:07:44.960 --> 01:07:49.199
Okay. So we've always said transform 2007, right?

01:07:50.059 --> 01:07:55.300
we've never okay these people now are using vernacular

01:07:55.300 --> 01:07:59.579
transformers one 2007 and i'm sitting here thinking

01:07:59.579 --> 01:08:04.920
stop that don't do that just say transformers

01:08:04.920 --> 01:08:09.000
2007 transformers one is from when did it come

01:08:09.000 --> 01:08:12.920
out 2024 whatever the hell like don't try to

01:08:12.920 --> 01:08:16.659
confuse people with the vernacular people stop

01:08:16.659 --> 01:08:20.180
it I remember what the other thing is. Happy

01:08:20.180 --> 01:08:22.880
anniversary. Mighty Morphin Power is the movie

01:08:22.880 --> 01:08:26.380
of the year today. Just finished watching it

01:08:26.380 --> 01:08:31.680
before we recorded the podcast. Oh, God. That

01:08:31.680 --> 01:08:39.579
movie. So good. That, okay. That's a movie that,

01:08:39.579 --> 01:08:42.560
that's a movie that I don't think is good today.

01:08:45.260 --> 01:08:48.409
Because if you... Whether it's effects or whatever,

01:08:48.590 --> 01:08:52.890
but specifically runtime. That movie's runtime

01:08:52.890 --> 01:08:58.949
is... Where the hell's the runtime? Hello? How

01:08:58.949 --> 01:09:05.710
long is your movie, sir? How long is your movie,

01:09:05.789 --> 01:09:12.149
ma 'am? Is it down here? Where is the damn...

01:09:12.149 --> 01:09:19.350
Seriously, I just looked. We don't know. Oh,

01:09:19.350 --> 01:09:26.989
for... Hold on. It pulled up the stu... I know

01:09:26.989 --> 01:09:34.949
I put in the movie after I hit... There. It is...

01:09:34.949 --> 01:09:39.949
It comes in at 96 minutes. So it's an hour and

01:09:39.949 --> 01:09:48.170
a half plus six minutes. Okay? Mm -hmm. I watched

01:09:48.170 --> 01:09:54.010
up until when they got the great power. And then

01:09:54.010 --> 01:09:56.829
I just kind of started doing stuff around the

01:09:56.829 --> 01:10:00.729
apartment for the last... Because by the time

01:10:00.729 --> 01:10:02.729
they get the power and they go back to Angel

01:10:02.729 --> 01:10:06.210
Grove for the final fight, it's the final fight.

01:10:06.590 --> 01:10:09.770
I know that final fight like the back of my hand.

01:10:10.350 --> 01:10:14.489
Like, you know, they destroy one of the ectomorphicons

01:10:14.489 --> 01:10:17.710
and... And then Ooze does something stupid and

01:10:17.710 --> 01:10:20.310
he makes himself grow and get into the other

01:10:20.310 --> 01:10:23.810
ectomorphicon and they fly into space and they

01:10:23.810 --> 01:10:29.529
use Titan's comet or Orion's comet or whatever

01:10:29.529 --> 01:10:34.350
comet to blow him up. Giant Ooze man go boom

01:10:34.350 --> 01:10:38.989
and they save the day and we get Fred Campbell,

01:10:39.109 --> 01:10:45.729
the Gold Ranger. Fred Campbell. Get off my one.

01:10:47.090 --> 01:10:53.149
But no, the point is, is that 1995, June 30th,

01:10:53.149 --> 01:10:56.630
1995, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the movie

01:10:56.630 --> 01:11:01.210
released the theaters. I was there and it was

01:11:01.210 --> 01:11:05.930
awesome. And I missed Jason David Frank immensely.

01:11:07.229 --> 01:11:10.170
And I wish he was here to celebrate the anniversary.

01:11:10.250 --> 01:11:12.670
And obviously we know he can't be here to do

01:11:12.670 --> 01:11:16.420
that. I'm glad all the other actors are here

01:11:16.420 --> 01:11:23.779
now with us and everything else. That movie has

01:11:23.779 --> 01:11:27.439
a perfect beginning, middle, and end. There are

01:11:27.439 --> 01:11:30.779
no wasted moments. There are a few comedy moments

01:11:30.779 --> 01:11:35.020
I could do without. I mean, I roll my eyes at,

01:11:35.279 --> 01:11:41.979
what's the character's name? Mordant. which is

01:11:41.979 --> 01:11:47.979
the the second alien that's that's with uh uh

01:11:47.979 --> 01:11:52.119
goldar he's kind of like yeah that one was weird

01:11:52.119 --> 01:11:53.819
because like he didn't really exist anywhere

01:11:53.819 --> 01:11:56.560
else yeah no he doesn't and he's kind of like

01:11:56.560 --> 01:12:01.279
the squat and babu version of me um because they

01:12:01.279 --> 01:12:07.359
didn't bring in squat and babu um but yeah so

01:12:07.359 --> 01:12:15.210
yeah But no, I mean, you don't have too much

01:12:15.210 --> 01:12:17.710
bulk and skull in this. I mean, you got them

01:12:17.710 --> 01:12:22.010
doing the whole skydive thing, and you got them

01:12:22.010 --> 01:12:26.529
doing the whole thing with the foreman when they

01:12:26.529 --> 01:12:34.649
land. But other than that, no, I really dig this

01:12:34.649 --> 01:12:42.939
movie. It's so fun. It's just really fun. I enjoy

01:12:42.939 --> 01:12:48.579
it. Yeah, absolutely. So happy 30th, Mighty Morphin

01:12:48.579 --> 01:12:56.279
Power Rangers. So I think with that, I think
