WEBVTT

00:00:01.070 --> 00:00:03.830
From the Dungeons of Morningstar, my name's Stretch.

00:00:04.549 --> 00:00:07.129
And I'm Clint, and this is Prevailing Strange.

00:00:19.309 --> 00:00:22.309
So, I think we're going to run this a little

00:00:22.309 --> 00:00:25.370
bit different. Maybe not that different, but

00:00:25.370 --> 00:00:28.550
we'll introduce maybe something more segmented.

00:00:28.969 --> 00:00:31.620
Yes, well, evolution. Evolution. Usually takes

00:00:31.620 --> 00:00:33.700
different paths. I think we'll begin this week

00:00:33.700 --> 00:00:37.679
with our weekly reviews, which will be us sharing

00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:39.859
our thoughts on the content we've consumed this

00:00:39.859 --> 00:00:42.039
week. Sounds good. Having a bit of structure

00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:44.299
could be a little bit better because I think

00:00:44.299 --> 00:00:47.560
we started with something last week and then

00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:49.460
we ended with the same topic, but there was like

00:00:49.460 --> 00:00:51.619
75 different things in between. I think that

00:00:51.619 --> 00:00:54.579
was lanterns we came back to twice, at least

00:00:54.579 --> 00:00:56.840
twice. At least. Yeah. We'll try and reign it

00:00:56.840 --> 00:01:02.350
in. We get excited. We do. This week you caught

00:01:02.350 --> 00:01:05.590
up on episode three of Daredevil. I sure did.

00:01:05.810 --> 00:01:08.890
And we watched episode four of Daredevil. Last

00:01:08.890 --> 00:01:10.689
night. Last night, yeah. Thoughts on episode

00:01:10.689 --> 00:01:15.510
three? I'm sort of, I didn't think I would miss

00:01:15.510 --> 00:01:19.109
the suit or Daredevil as much as I am. And I

00:01:19.109 --> 00:01:21.489
know we're only four episodes in, but only seeing

00:01:21.489 --> 00:01:26.829
Daredevil once. There was a moment in episode

00:01:26.829 --> 00:01:30.290
four last night where I was like. And then I

00:01:30.290 --> 00:01:32.650
was like, ah. Yeah, it was a bit of a tease.

00:01:32.890 --> 00:01:35.230
It was. It was like, oh, I tickled the tip. And

00:01:35.230 --> 00:01:36.969
then it's like, no, I'm not going to do anything

00:01:36.969 --> 00:01:40.609
about it. No. So I'm still enjoying it, though.

00:01:42.030 --> 00:01:44.129
I'm loving the little stabs he's giving the cops

00:01:44.129 --> 00:01:47.409
every time he sees them. Yeah. I think it's definitely

00:01:47.409 --> 00:01:50.489
getting better with each episode. Yeah. Was it

00:01:50.489 --> 00:01:54.930
18 episodes, wasn't it? No. It is nine episodes

00:01:54.930 --> 00:01:58.980
per season. But the arc is over two seasons.

00:01:59.019 --> 00:02:01.439
Right, okay. There you go. Yeah. That's still

00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:04.379
a long season of TV, like nine one -hour episodes.

00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:07.459
Considering that it's one overall arc that they're

00:02:07.459 --> 00:02:12.740
going to be doing, I kind of hope that we get

00:02:12.740 --> 00:02:14.400
to see him in the suit before the end of the

00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:18.620
first season. Bro. Do you think this whole arc

00:02:18.620 --> 00:02:21.180
is going to stay pretty tight to the Frank Miller

00:02:21.180 --> 00:02:23.680
line? I mean, it's already diverged from it.

00:02:23.860 --> 00:02:25.879
It has a little bit, yeah. They already used

00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:28.759
part of that storyline in season three. Yes.

00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:30.960
I think they're using parts of it. They've been

00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:33.360
pretty loose with that. So I was talking to Jack

00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:37.319
about that today. He's like, oh, don't watch

00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:41.219
Full Metal Alchemist. Watch Brotherhood. And

00:02:41.219 --> 00:02:42.860
I'm like, why? And he goes, because Brotherhood

00:02:42.860 --> 00:02:44.699
follows the books more. And I'm like, I don't

00:02:44.699 --> 00:02:46.860
mind if it deviates from the book a bit because

00:02:46.860 --> 00:02:50.039
if I've already read the book and it follows

00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:53.319
it to the T, then all it's doing is doing what

00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:55.099
Disney's been doing with its live -action remakes.

00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:58.919
Yeah. So I like a bit of deviation. We've already

00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.439
deviated off the subject already. No, of the

00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:03.520
Deadpool. We're still on the Deadpool. Daredevil.

00:03:03.699 --> 00:03:07.680
Daredevil, sorry. Sorry. I'm not too familiar

00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:11.360
with the Frank Miller run myself. Only kind of

00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:12.699
what I've... It's Frank Miller. It's going to

00:03:12.699 --> 00:03:15.180
be Goats. Only what I've kind of looked up since

00:03:15.180 --> 00:03:20.370
that this season was called Born Again. We got

00:03:20.370 --> 00:03:24.169
our first glimpse at Frank Castle in this episode.

00:03:24.849 --> 00:03:29.330
Dude. That was a heavy scene. Very. Yeah. In

00:03:29.330 --> 00:03:32.550
season four, episode four, very heavy. Yeah.

00:03:33.789 --> 00:03:37.050
There was a quote that he said in that that just

00:03:37.050 --> 00:03:40.870
tore me to shreds, dude. Just three words. Go

00:03:40.870 --> 00:03:44.069
get him, Dad. Or go get him, Daddy. No, get him,

00:03:44.090 --> 00:03:46.490
Daddy. Get him, Daddy. Fuck, I was close. Fuck,

00:03:46.629 --> 00:03:53.310
dude. I was just like. What? Three words I would

00:03:53.310 --> 00:03:56.430
not have got until I was a dad. Yeah, absolutely.

00:03:56.810 --> 00:04:00.509
But fuck, that was hard to watch and just seeing

00:04:00.509 --> 00:04:03.569
Matt not be able to say Foggy's name. Yeah, that

00:04:03.569 --> 00:04:06.629
definitely tore him up. Oh, yeah. The end of

00:04:06.629 --> 00:04:09.449
the third episode ending with the slaying of

00:04:09.449 --> 00:04:13.530
White Tiger. I was really digging his character.

00:04:13.909 --> 00:04:17.149
Yeah. Not just the white tiger of it, but Hector

00:04:17.149 --> 00:04:20.089
himself. I was hoping there was going to be more,

00:04:20.329 --> 00:04:24.649
but no. It was just like... The actor for Hector,

00:04:24.790 --> 00:04:27.310
he actually passed away not long after the role.

00:04:27.430 --> 00:04:29.029
He was actually very sick when he filmed this.

00:04:29.069 --> 00:04:31.870
No fucking way. Yeah, yeah. Cancer, I believe.

00:04:32.069 --> 00:04:33.509
Oh, of course it was. So he must have been a

00:04:33.509 --> 00:04:36.529
nice guy. Yeah. Well, he looked like he... I

00:04:36.529 --> 00:04:38.670
mean, I'm pretty sure it was the character because

00:04:38.670 --> 00:04:40.470
the amulet's supposed to kind of... Give him

00:04:40.470 --> 00:04:42.850
power. ...weigh on them when they're not using

00:04:42.850 --> 00:04:46.740
it. You're right. I think that added some gravitas

00:04:46.740 --> 00:04:50.060
to his performance, maybe the pain that he was

00:04:50.060 --> 00:04:54.139
enduring during filming. They said they had to

00:04:54.139 --> 00:04:57.420
take their time with his shots when they actually

00:04:57.420 --> 00:05:01.199
filmed it. So that was back in 2023 when they

00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:04.459
filmed this. That was like the whole Chadwick

00:05:04.459 --> 00:05:06.600
Boseman of it all. Yeah. Like you could see his

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.040
decline as... As the movies went on. Yeah. Well,

00:05:10.139 --> 00:05:13.480
even when you saw him at the award shows, he'd...

00:05:13.629 --> 00:05:15.850
Didn't look too happy to be there. No, he was.

00:05:15.949 --> 00:05:18.370
Which is quite understandable. Some other things

00:05:18.370 --> 00:05:20.910
that popped up in that third episode that we

00:05:20.910 --> 00:05:23.629
didn't get to talk about because I was lazy and

00:05:23.629 --> 00:05:28.389
didn't watch it. Just the Fisk's bloody knuckles.

00:05:28.889 --> 00:05:31.709
Nothing's mentioned about it. And it's like,

00:05:31.810 --> 00:05:34.709
hold on, what's going on? What's he doing? You

00:05:34.709 --> 00:05:35.829
get that payoff in episode four. You get that

00:05:35.829 --> 00:05:38.230
payoff in episode four. It was like just a little,

00:05:38.329 --> 00:05:40.709
it was a couple of frames of bloody knuckles.

00:05:40.750 --> 00:05:42.449
You're like, he's been up to some shit. Yeah,

00:05:42.470 --> 00:05:45.009
he has been. And then it's like that payoff.

00:05:45.310 --> 00:05:47.529
Yeah, that deep, dark secret kept in the basement.

00:05:47.750 --> 00:05:51.069
But in that scene where he's in his basement

00:05:51.069 --> 00:05:52.490
and he's eating that big plate of food, I'm like,

00:05:52.589 --> 00:05:55.230
he's not eating that pile of food. He's lost

00:05:55.230 --> 00:05:57.329
so much weight. There's no way he's eating all

00:05:57.329 --> 00:06:01.949
that pasta and sausages. Yeah. Definitely a part

00:06:01.949 --> 00:06:05.470
of the torment he's a prisoner. He's captive.

00:06:05.689 --> 00:06:08.790
Yeah. I'm like, who is that? Who is that? And

00:06:08.790 --> 00:06:11.610
then I'm like, again, it's paying off. Something

00:06:11.610 --> 00:06:13.990
that happened episodes earlier. where you find

00:06:13.990 --> 00:06:17.889
out that Vanessa had an extramarital affair and

00:06:17.889 --> 00:06:20.170
Kingpin said, don't worry, I'm not going to hurt

00:06:20.170 --> 00:06:23.009
him. I'm not going to do nothing bad. I've moved

00:06:23.009 --> 00:06:26.209
on. I'm not that person no more. Flat out lie.

00:06:28.230 --> 00:06:31.629
I think he's just steadily over the course of

00:06:31.629 --> 00:06:34.029
the show. He's just going to get pushed and pushed

00:06:34.029 --> 00:06:37.269
and pushed until he snaps. We can sort of see

00:06:37.269 --> 00:06:39.529
that when he's talking to Vanessa about stuff

00:06:39.529 --> 00:06:41.360
and he's like, I don't want. I don't want that

00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:43.800
old lie for us. And she's still going out and

00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.379
doing the shit. She's, you know, she's the man.

00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:52.620
Yeah, I think he's going to, yeah, go dark. Oh,

00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:56.860
yeah. We got a first look at Muse. Oh, dude.

00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:01.199
Comic accurate get up. So good. Yeah, you look

00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:04.079
pretty cool. So good. So he's the one that's

00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:11.430
been doing all the murals. Yeah, yeah. And there's

00:07:11.430 --> 00:07:16.250
issues where he literally just cuts bodies up

00:07:16.250 --> 00:07:19.689
and places them like an art installation all

00:07:19.689 --> 00:07:22.829
around the city. And it's like he's a serial

00:07:22.829 --> 00:07:25.389
killer. Yeah, he's pretty dark. He's dark, dude,

00:07:25.529 --> 00:07:30.870
like people's entrails and shit. And the fact

00:07:30.870 --> 00:07:34.129
that they keep that scene where he's just like

00:07:34.129 --> 00:07:36.470
siphoning blood out of old mate's leg, I'm like,

00:07:36.610 --> 00:07:39.509
oh, my God, here we go. We're going to see some

00:07:39.509 --> 00:07:41.709
shit. Yeah, I think that's going to be the medium

00:07:41.709 --> 00:07:46.329
for his art next, big artwork. Well, in Fisk's

00:07:46.329 --> 00:07:52.009
dungeon when he's torturing Adam, you see that

00:07:52.009 --> 00:07:54.550
piece of artwork on his wall. From the first

00:07:54.550 --> 00:07:58.250
show. From the first show. Yeah. It's like has

00:07:58.250 --> 00:08:00.509
Muse been around since the first episode or is

00:08:00.509 --> 00:08:02.930
that a piece of Muse's original artwork? No,

00:08:02.949 --> 00:08:04.970
no, that's from the first show. That's when he

00:08:04.970 --> 00:08:08.129
first met Vanessa. They were looking at that

00:08:08.129 --> 00:08:11.189
picture. And then I think it's in the last season,

00:08:11.290 --> 00:08:14.089
there's the fight in his penthouse, is it? And

00:08:14.089 --> 00:08:15.709
the blood spray. The blood spray. That's right.

00:08:15.870 --> 00:08:18.670
So it's a bit of a callback to his white suit

00:08:18.670 --> 00:08:21.649
with the blood on it. Yeah. I like that. That

00:08:21.649 --> 00:08:24.750
was a good touch. Yeah. That was like in the

00:08:24.750 --> 00:08:26.810
first episode where he's going through his clothes

00:08:26.810 --> 00:08:30.550
and he stops on the white suit and then. Iconic.

00:08:30.550 --> 00:08:33.450
Yeah. Who's the actor that's playing Muse? Do

00:08:33.450 --> 00:08:35.909
you? So we've already seen him without the mask

00:08:35.909 --> 00:08:41.629
on. He was in the line for the book signing for

00:08:41.629 --> 00:08:45.350
Daredevil's girlfriend. The psychologist. The

00:08:45.350 --> 00:08:49.789
psychologist, yes. So his name was Bastion. Right,

00:08:49.909 --> 00:08:52.669
right. Young fella. He's been in a couple of

00:08:52.669 --> 00:08:55.210
shows in the past. I believe he was in Wednesday

00:08:55.210 --> 00:08:59.090
and he was also in Your Honour opposite Bryan

00:08:59.090 --> 00:09:02.129
Cranston. That's another show I want to watch.

00:09:04.509 --> 00:09:06.269
Partway through season two and, yeah, it's been

00:09:06.269 --> 00:09:08.990
pretty good. Yeah? Yeah. Holds up? It does. I

00:09:08.990 --> 00:09:10.590
love Bryan Cranston. I think he's just sensational.

00:09:10.950 --> 00:09:13.950
Yeah, fantastic. But, yeah, seeing that comic

00:09:13.950 --> 00:09:17.370
accurate, like when the camera just pans up from

00:09:17.370 --> 00:09:19.470
the leg and it's just straight on his face, I'm

00:09:19.470 --> 00:09:21.710
like, oh, that's dark. That's going to be sick.

00:09:21.769 --> 00:09:23.549
Like there's just blood all down his face. I'm

00:09:23.549 --> 00:09:25.190
like, let's go and punch him. I am interested

00:09:25.190 --> 00:09:27.769
to see what his power set is in this because

00:09:27.769 --> 00:09:31.049
he's an inhuman comic. Exactly right. And he's

00:09:31.049 --> 00:09:34.789
able to evade Matt Murdock's kind of. Super Sensors.

00:09:34.830 --> 00:09:38.769
Yeah. Whether he's going to be an Inhuman or

00:09:38.769 --> 00:09:41.889
a Mutant, which we've got a few of them so far

00:09:41.889 --> 00:09:44.230
in the Marvel Universe, whether it's just going

00:09:44.230 --> 00:09:46.549
to be a natural talent of his. Yeah. It's going

00:09:46.549 --> 00:09:48.870
to be interesting to see how that unfolds. See,

00:09:48.929 --> 00:09:52.950
this is the thing too. We all like Agents of

00:09:52.950 --> 00:09:56.169
S .H .I .E .L .D. introduced Inhumans. That's

00:09:56.169 --> 00:09:58.210
canon. I wasn't sure if that was retconned or

00:09:58.210 --> 00:10:03.100
not. Did they retcon that? Because I stopped

00:10:03.100 --> 00:10:06.019
watching it just before Ghost Rider came into

00:10:06.019 --> 00:10:07.720
it. So I don't know whether they retconned it

00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:10.100
and sort of pushed it to the side because that

00:10:10.100 --> 00:10:13.100
was garbage. I never watched it. Trash. I think

00:10:13.100 --> 00:10:14.500
I watched the first episode. I was like, oh,

00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:17.340
I think they should have left Coulson dead. Should

00:10:17.340 --> 00:10:19.019
have, most definitely. Like he was a favourite

00:10:19.019 --> 00:10:20.600
character of mine, but they definitely should

00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:22.500
have left him dead. The gravitas of him like

00:10:22.500 --> 00:10:27.500
dying and, you know, Fury going, lost my one

00:10:27.500 --> 00:10:29.919
good eye. And he's only got one eye left. And

00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:33.279
he said, my one good eye. And it's like that

00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:35.019
was the catalyst for them all joining together

00:10:35.019 --> 00:10:37.799
and fucking shut up. Leave him dead. Give him

00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:39.820
that respect and leave him dead. Yeah, it was

00:10:39.820 --> 00:10:41.960
perfect the way it was. They didn't have to go

00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:44.259
dredging him up again. But, I mean, it is a comic

00:10:44.259 --> 00:10:46.460
book movie kind of universe. No one ever usually

00:10:46.460 --> 00:10:52.039
stays dead. No, never really. Yeah, it'd be interesting

00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:57.120
to see, you know, nobody stays dead, whether

00:10:57.120 --> 00:10:59.820
they cheapen Foggy's death by the end of this

00:10:59.820 --> 00:11:03.940
run or not. Like, as much as I hate to see Foggy

00:11:03.940 --> 00:11:07.299
gone, I don't think they could do that. Well,

00:11:07.460 --> 00:11:10.159
there is storylines in it where he actually goes

00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:14.259
into WITSEC and all that sort of shit, but the

00:11:14.259 --> 00:11:19.519
weight of that first scene where Matt can hear

00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:21.620
his heartbeat slowing, if you're cheap in that,

00:11:21.700 --> 00:11:23.240
you're going to ruin the whole series. The whole

00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:25.220
thing is meant to be grounded and meant to be

00:11:25.220 --> 00:11:28.500
this, that. If you have this bloke who's got

00:11:28.500 --> 00:11:30.639
superpowers who can tell who a person is walking

00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:33.840
just because of their foot weight and he can

00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:38.259
find a bullet in a drain by listening to a bottle,

00:11:38.379 --> 00:11:45.179
you cannot have him lose the heartbeat and have

00:11:45.179 --> 00:11:47.379
that whole moment and then cheapen it at the

00:11:47.379 --> 00:11:49.519
end. Yeah, surely. Like I said, as cool as it

00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:52.220
would be to see Foggy back, no, just leave it

00:11:52.220 --> 00:11:54.480
as is. Just leave it. Not that we have a say.

00:11:54.580 --> 00:11:57.240
Marvel doesn't listen to us. That's right. Maybe

00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:00.159
they should. They should. I mean, no, please

00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:03.840
don't. I talk so much shit. Yeah. Well, you're

00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:08.639
not supposed to agree. Well, I can't lie. Fuck

00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:15.059
you, man. So, yeah, the end of the third episode

00:12:15.059 --> 00:12:19.720
we saw Hector Aiella? Aiella, yeah. As the white

00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:24.179
tiger gets slain by somebody, presumably. A fanboy

00:12:24.179 --> 00:12:27.799
of The Punisher. Well, when I seen that, I instantly

00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:30.620
looked, Frank, what the fuck? Like literally

00:12:30.620 --> 00:12:34.700
that was my, no. Yeah. I think the fact that

00:12:34.700 --> 00:12:37.659
his face was obscured is the obvious. Sort of

00:12:37.659 --> 00:12:40.539
led to it not being him. Yeah, it's a cop, a

00:12:40.539 --> 00:12:45.259
dirty cop most likely. But in the beginning of

00:12:45.259 --> 00:12:48.159
the fourth episode, we actually meet the fourth

00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:51.299
incarnation of White Tiger in the Marvel Comics

00:12:51.299 --> 00:12:56.450
universe. his niece. Well, there you go. I didn't

00:12:56.450 --> 00:12:59.129
even know that. Yeah. So I'm guessing she's way

00:12:59.129 --> 00:13:02.289
too young but could be a young Avenger. Yep.

00:13:02.429 --> 00:13:06.809
Who knows? We might see her dye her white. Watching

00:13:06.809 --> 00:13:11.090
him in court and when Matt outed him, I'm like,

00:13:11.210 --> 00:13:18.070
what? No way. And then you see that whole shit

00:13:18.070 --> 00:13:21.779
cascade in front of you. And then. the people

00:13:21.779 --> 00:13:24.720
who have been protected by him and the stories

00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:26.539
that they're telling and just seeing him sit

00:13:26.539 --> 00:13:29.399
there going, I've actually had a good impact

00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:32.639
on people's lives. I've done good. I've done

00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:35.820
a good job. And you hear the way people are going,

00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:39.080
this city is trash, it's dangerous, and he protects

00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:42.399
me. He's never asked for nothing. And I'm like,

00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:45.320
wow, that was heavy hitting. There's a lot of

00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:47.179
moments in this show that are hitting hard just

00:13:47.179 --> 00:13:51.980
with some dialogue. A little disappointed with

00:13:51.980 --> 00:13:54.019
his costume. There was something about it. It

00:13:54.019 --> 00:13:56.759
felt a little cheap. But then again, he was a

00:13:56.759 --> 00:13:57.899
street level character. He was a street level

00:13:57.899 --> 00:14:00.379
character. You can't really go expecting him

00:14:00.379 --> 00:14:02.360
to look like Spider -Man. Yeah, Tony Stark's

00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:05.179
not going to. And Tony Stark's, spoilers, dead.

00:14:05.580 --> 00:14:08.919
So he can't make the suit. And neither can, is

00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:12.519
it Marvin? The one that made Matt's suit? Yeah.

00:14:14.120 --> 00:14:15.779
What happened to him in the end? Did something

00:14:15.779 --> 00:14:19.740
happen to him? No, he went, him and Betsy. went

00:14:19.740 --> 00:14:21.399
on their own way and Matt said, I'm never going

00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:23.340
to. That's right. I'm never going to need you

00:14:23.340 --> 00:14:26.539
again. Yeah. He's like, I want to keep you protected.

00:14:26.539 --> 00:14:29.559
And then he'd give him the Billy Club and this

00:14:29.559 --> 00:14:30.840
is something I want you to have as a parting

00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:32.980
gift sort of thing. Speaking about the Billy

00:14:32.980 --> 00:14:35.740
Clubs, it was pretty interesting to see him using

00:14:35.740 --> 00:14:39.480
the weighted end, the grapple end. Yes. Yeah,

00:14:39.539 --> 00:14:41.500
that was pretty cool. Actually seeing him getting

00:14:41.500 --> 00:14:45.320
out and doing some fucking shit was, yeah, I

00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:48.659
was like, let's see some more of that. Keen to

00:14:48.659 --> 00:14:52.059
see, get another better look at the mask range,

00:14:52.460 --> 00:14:56.059
whether they're just variants, whether there's

00:14:56.059 --> 00:14:59.860
ones from season one or whether he's got some

00:14:59.860 --> 00:15:02.059
different colours. I think there has been some

00:15:02.059 --> 00:15:05.779
screen grabs posted online that there is different

00:15:05.779 --> 00:15:07.480
iterations, different colours. So you've got

00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:09.139
the yellow one, of course, which we've seen in

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:11.759
She -Hulk. Yeah, I think in the preview I saw

00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:14.519
maybe three or four. But from the shot in this

00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:17.019
episode, they look like there was a lot more.

00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:20.090
Yeah. When they opened up and just the eyes were

00:15:20.090 --> 00:15:22.730
glowing, I'm like, oh, yeah. Definitely cool.

00:15:22.889 --> 00:15:28.529
What do you think about the BB's kind of news

00:15:28.529 --> 00:15:31.389
articles that are sprinkled throughout? Honestly,

00:15:31.509 --> 00:15:33.809
man, I could give or take it. I don't really

00:15:33.809 --> 00:15:36.509
need it. I wish that Ben Urick didn't die because

00:15:36.509 --> 00:15:39.929
he's a kick -ass character. Yeah. And he's a

00:15:39.929 --> 00:15:43.210
mainstay of Daredevil, whatever happens. Yeah.

00:15:45.370 --> 00:15:48.610
Like, give or take, I don't like the whole. Yeah,

00:15:48.649 --> 00:15:51.710
they're not hitting for me. No. For me, it's

00:15:51.710 --> 00:15:55.870
just you're in these epic scenes and then it

00:15:55.870 --> 00:15:59.389
cuts to her little commentary on the city. Yeah.

00:15:59.669 --> 00:16:05.269
Make them grainier or less high definition or

00:16:05.269 --> 00:16:07.669
something. Like, because they're pretty much

00:16:07.669 --> 00:16:11.110
the same quality camera. Yeah. It's just kind

00:16:11.110 --> 00:16:13.269
of giving a bit of shake to make it look less

00:16:13.269 --> 00:16:16.740
pro. I am hoping there's going to be some payoff

00:16:16.740 --> 00:16:20.399
to these down the track. I agree. But right now,

00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:25.460
yeah. Very, very miss. Filler. I was more inclined

00:16:25.460 --> 00:16:28.279
when you see Fisk Fix the Road and someone's

00:16:28.279 --> 00:16:30.179
filming it and they've posted it to social media.

00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.559
That was, you know, the aspect ratio of it was

00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:35.320
a bit better and it was just, I don't know, it

00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:38.759
just takes you out. Yeah. And I think if that

00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:41.779
wasn't in, then I don't think I'd miss it. No,

00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:46.580
not at all. I will be. interested to see how

00:16:46.580 --> 00:16:51.299
far that goes. There was another bit where old

00:16:51.299 --> 00:16:53.679
mate Sarkarzy is talking to him and you just

00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:57.779
see Fisk's eyes go, and I got chills, man. I'm

00:16:57.779 --> 00:17:04.579
like, that shift in the way he's able to portray

00:17:04.579 --> 00:17:08.299
that character just like that was sensational.

00:17:08.940 --> 00:17:12.109
D 'Onofrio is a fantastic actor. So good. But

00:17:12.109 --> 00:17:14.029
like he was just like he looked all solemn and

00:17:14.029 --> 00:17:15.990
his eyes were down and then there was a moment

00:17:15.990 --> 00:17:18.630
where he's like, you do that again. And his eyes

00:17:18.630 --> 00:17:21.549
just shifted. I'm like, I believe what you're

00:17:21.549 --> 00:17:24.589
saying, sir. I'm sorry. I was apologising to

00:17:24.589 --> 00:17:26.269
him and I was looking at him through the TV.

00:17:27.250 --> 00:17:30.230
Frank Castle's part in this episode, do you think

00:17:30.230 --> 00:17:32.690
it's going to be the last time we see him? No.

00:17:32.769 --> 00:17:36.009
No, there's got to be more to that. In respect

00:17:36.009 --> 00:17:38.869
to Daredevil, like I know that we're going to

00:17:38.869 --> 00:17:42.019
get the special. There's no way on earth Frank

00:17:42.019 --> 00:17:45.539
Castle is letting cops go around with his vest,

00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:49.420
shooting bullets with his logo and committing

00:17:49.420 --> 00:17:51.660
murder against innocent people. Oh, absolutely.

00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:54.079
There's no way he's going to let that go. But

00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:56.579
I'm thinking, was that the setup for the special?

00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:00.859
If we've got another 14 episodes of this one

00:18:00.859 --> 00:18:04.779
arc, I can't ever see it just being that one

00:18:04.779 --> 00:18:10.349
five -minute scene, especially since... You know,

00:18:10.349 --> 00:18:12.630
we've got to get Karen Page. She's definitely

00:18:12.630 --> 00:18:16.210
got to come back. And you can't have Karen Page

00:18:16.210 --> 00:18:18.069
come back without her interacting with Frank.

00:18:18.289 --> 00:18:22.190
That's like his conduit to Matt. Yeah. I just

00:18:22.190 --> 00:18:27.009
think there's a lot of heat between them two.

00:18:27.130 --> 00:18:32.930
There's a lot of. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So I don't

00:18:32.930 --> 00:18:35.809
know whether they want to portray too much of

00:18:35.809 --> 00:18:39.960
that and deviate from the story. because they're

00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:41.779
always going to bang heads, you know what I mean?

00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:45.160
Yeah. I kind of feel like that's the first and

00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:46.480
last time we're going to see him. You reckon?

00:18:46.660 --> 00:18:49.140
Yeah, I'm going to put money on it, yeah. Do

00:18:49.140 --> 00:18:52.059
you talk to Kim Foggy? No. No? No. Do you have

00:18:52.059 --> 00:18:56.140
an insight? I do not, no. Just the way they kind

00:18:56.140 --> 00:19:02.059
of ended it, he said goodbye and I was like...

00:19:02.059 --> 00:19:06.339
He also said goodbye, Frank, in season two of

00:19:06.339 --> 00:19:10.640
Daredevil. He did, yeah. The thing is, Matt Murdock

00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:13.220
probably wouldn't stand for Castle going around

00:19:13.220 --> 00:19:21.660
killing these cops. If he's sicked Castle on

00:19:21.660 --> 00:19:25.059
these cops, he'd probably step in to kind of

00:19:25.059 --> 00:19:29.420
stop him. So I think we've got that route to

00:19:29.420 --> 00:19:32.500
the special where he's going to go kick some

00:19:32.500 --> 00:19:35.160
corrupt cop arse. If you're going to give Frank

00:19:35.160 --> 00:19:37.799
Castle his own special, I don't think it's just

00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:41.279
going to be against some corrupt cops. I think

00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:46.279
there's going to have to be a bigger antagonist.

00:19:47.019 --> 00:19:49.299
Antagonist. There has to be something bigger

00:19:49.299 --> 00:19:51.539
than that because Frank Castle's no pushover.

00:19:51.859 --> 00:19:55.240
We've seen him hold his own against DD, seen

00:19:55.240 --> 00:20:00.700
him hold his own against Bullseye. He's no schlop.

00:20:01.420 --> 00:20:03.960
You've got to put someone. To make it formidable

00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:06.240
for Frank Castle, it has to be bigger than some

00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:08.880
crab cobs. I would be happy to be wrong to see

00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:11.359
him again because that scene was fantastic and

00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:14.720
John Barantol has chops, man. He's buffed up

00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:16.900
big, too. Do you see the size of his chest under

00:20:16.900 --> 00:20:19.900
that jacket? Jesus Christ. I don't pay as much

00:20:19.900 --> 00:20:27.640
attention as you do. Oh, shit. I can tell. I

00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:29.240
think that's about as much as we can cover for

00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.539
Daredevil, really. I just choked up reading that

00:20:33.539 --> 00:20:41.700
Get Em Daddy on my notes. Oh, dude. So well delivered,

00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:44.440
man. The way he just looked and it was like he

00:20:44.440 --> 00:20:47.019
gets kicked in the guts every time he hears that.

00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:50.440
He's a broken man. Tortured man every day. And

00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:51.900
that's what he was saying to Matt. He's like,

00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:54.799
you can't even say his name. You hear his voice,

00:20:54.859 --> 00:20:56.720
don't you? You hear Foggy's voice all the time.

00:20:57.039 --> 00:20:59.000
I'm not good with lines, but what was his line

00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:01.059
that he said? You hear him talking to you, what

00:21:01.059 --> 00:21:03.480
is he saying? You know what I'm saying? Get him,

00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:06.900
daddy. And I'm like, oh, goosebumps just singing

00:21:06.900 --> 00:21:10.920
about a man. I'm like. Oh, man, he's a great

00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:13.779
actor. He's that good I fucking hated him in

00:21:13.779 --> 00:21:16.519
Walking Dead. He was a fucking horrible actor.

00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:24.480
Can't save a brick. Oh, yeah, man, he was a cock.

00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:28.670
Yeah, he was. But, like. That just shows how

00:21:28.670 --> 00:21:34.289
well he can act. Was it? Yeah. He was in an episode

00:21:34.289 --> 00:21:36.470
of How I Met Your Mother. Didn't even recognise

00:21:36.470 --> 00:21:39.009
him. Fuck off, really? Serious, dude. He was

00:21:39.009 --> 00:21:42.849
a party goer and his one line was, no problem,

00:21:43.089 --> 00:21:45.309
hombre. And then he just walked off. He was chatting

00:21:45.309 --> 00:21:50.990
up Robin Schabowski at the party. Okay. And it

00:21:50.990 --> 00:21:55.450
was just, but yeah, charming as shit. He looked

00:21:55.450 --> 00:22:00.299
pretty. He was like an Abercrombie model. And

00:22:00.299 --> 00:22:10.339
then the first time I seen him act big was The

00:22:10.339 --> 00:22:12.259
Walking Dead. I think that was his first major

00:22:12.259 --> 00:22:14.700
role. That was his breakout role, yeah. And you're

00:22:14.700 --> 00:22:16.940
right, you hated him. He was that good. What

00:22:16.940 --> 00:22:20.119
was the follow -up thing that I saw him in that

00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:22.619
I thought, okay, yeah, no, he's good? He was

00:22:22.619 --> 00:22:27.059
in Fury. Fury? Yeah. Nailed it. He just pops

00:22:27.059 --> 00:22:31.019
up in everything now. But honestly, I sit there

00:22:31.019 --> 00:22:33.880
and I scratch my brain. I'm thinking, who could

00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:36.140
have been the Punisher as well? And every time

00:22:36.140 --> 00:22:38.460
I get blocked, I'm cock -blocked by John Baron.

00:22:39.859 --> 00:22:45.000
And just even Grizzly with that beard, man, it's

00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:47.000
like, oh, he's going to rip some guts right out.

00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:52.559
He's definitely a very typecast actor. But in

00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:57.490
those roles. Range, man. He's got some range.

00:22:57.789 --> 00:23:04.410
He's able to do that in pain and able to do that

00:23:04.410 --> 00:23:10.309
given pain really well. And you can just the

00:23:10.309 --> 00:23:12.589
emotion he gets in his face is just bullshit

00:23:12.589 --> 00:23:17.369
good. I never got that with not Thomas Jane,

00:23:17.569 --> 00:23:21.069
the one after. He passed away of cancer again,

00:23:21.170 --> 00:23:24.640
yeah. Ray Stevenson. Yeah, Ray Stevenson. They

00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:28.180
tried to be more comic accurate. He looked great

00:23:28.180 --> 00:23:34.660
as the Punisher. Jigsaw was, you know, he was

00:23:34.660 --> 00:23:40.000
a psychopath. But you never got emotion out of

00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:42.619
Ray Stephens' Punisher. Yeah, okay. There was

00:23:42.619 --> 00:23:45.920
no, you couldn't believe that he was doing this

00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:47.660
because his family was slain in front of him.

00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:51.660
Yeah. You didn't get that. Right. The same with

00:23:51.660 --> 00:23:54.109
Thomas Jane. He's like. I made you kill your

00:23:54.109 --> 00:23:55.970
wife. I made you kill your best friend. I made

00:23:55.970 --> 00:23:57.789
you kill your kid. And then he just walks off

00:23:57.789 --> 00:24:01.170
in fire. And it's like, okay, you had your whole

00:24:01.170 --> 00:24:05.250
family slaughtered at a family event and you're

00:24:05.250 --> 00:24:07.029
the only one that survives. And then when you

00:24:07.029 --> 00:24:09.529
go and you approach all your friends that are

00:24:09.529 --> 00:24:14.829
cops and you're like, if, you know, I'm disappointed

00:24:14.829 --> 00:24:18.789
when the, you know, when the Red Sox lose the

00:24:18.789 --> 00:24:21.009
World Series. I'm disappointed when the Lakers

00:24:21.009 --> 00:24:23.039
lose the basketball. If that's disappointed,

00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:26.160
what do I feel now? Yeah. I don't know. I can't

00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:29.220
tell. Yeah. John Berenfold looks at the camera

00:24:29.220 --> 00:24:31.519
and goes, get him, daddy, and you're fucking

00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:34.740
sold. Yeah. You're like, that's someone that

00:24:34.740 --> 00:24:37.519
Captain America would shoot in the face. Absolutely.

00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:39.839
Like in Civil War. Like he's like, I'm not going

00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:44.019
to deal with any criminals, any Captain America's

00:24:44.019 --> 00:24:46.220
henchmen that he's brought in to help him against

00:24:46.220 --> 00:24:48.660
Tony Stark. He just goes, bang, bang, shoots

00:24:48.660 --> 00:24:50.359
them both in the head. He goes, we're not working

00:24:50.359 --> 00:24:53.630
with criminals. It's like I believe John Barenthal

00:24:53.630 --> 00:24:57.950
would do that. Yeah. But the other, and don't

00:24:57.950 --> 00:25:02.650
get me started on Dolph Lundgren, but Ray Stevenson's

00:25:02.650 --> 00:25:07.789
looked great. The action was great. The gore

00:25:07.789 --> 00:25:11.950
was up there. Like there was blood packs going

00:25:11.950 --> 00:25:15.089
off everywhere. Thomas Jane's movie was great.

00:25:17.490 --> 00:25:21.839
It was very. Very two -dimensional, though. Yeah.

00:25:22.420 --> 00:25:24.660
Do you know what I want to see in the upcoming

00:25:24.660 --> 00:25:30.119
Secret Wars? Secret Wars? Oh, we're jumping that

00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:33.039
far. Okay. Yeah, we're jumping away a little

00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:34.980
bit here. No, no, no. I'm talking about timeline

00:25:34.980 --> 00:25:38.200
-wise. You're not going to go Doom first? Because

00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:40.960
Doomsday is the next one. Doomsday is the one

00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:43.859
that's going to set it up. Yeah. Secret, not

00:25:43.859 --> 00:25:46.079
Secret World. Secret Wars. Secret Wars is going

00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:47.839
to be the one where we're going to see a fuckload

00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:51.259
of cast. Dude. It's going to be ridiculous. It's

00:25:51.259 --> 00:25:52.619
going to be the biggest cast ever assembled.

00:25:52.980 --> 00:25:56.140
Yep. The thing about the comics is that the Punisher

00:25:56.140 --> 00:26:01.420
idolises Captain America. I want to see him come

00:26:01.420 --> 00:26:05.579
up against Chris Evans. Steve Rogers. Steve Rogers

00:26:05.579 --> 00:26:10.859
as the Hydra Captain America. And see them go

00:26:10.859 --> 00:26:15.619
toe to toe. Hail Hydra indeed. Dreaming big.

00:26:17.259 --> 00:26:18.960
Probably will never happen, but that would be

00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:21.200
cool to see that. We've seen a little bit of

00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:23.539
that in Endgame where he goes, you know, he's

00:26:23.539 --> 00:26:25.539
in the elevator and he goes, Hail Hydra. He's

00:26:25.539 --> 00:26:29.440
like, ooh. A little nod to that, yeah. But, yeah.

00:26:29.799 --> 00:26:33.680
But, yeah, if you see him in that black suit

00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:35.640
and he's got the squid in the middle of his head

00:26:35.640 --> 00:26:38.950
and it's like, oh, yeah, come on. Yeah. Seeing

00:26:38.950 --> 00:26:41.569
two hand -to -hand combat specialists just going

00:26:41.569 --> 00:26:43.630
nuts and then Frank Castle pulling knives and

00:26:43.630 --> 00:26:46.089
guns out of his waistband and his heels and everything.

00:26:46.230 --> 00:26:49.369
Yeah. It would be sick. Yeah. The stopping power

00:26:49.369 --> 00:26:53.150
of a bullet against a super soldier and, you

00:26:53.150 --> 00:26:55.089
know, somebody who knows how to use a weapon.

00:26:55.269 --> 00:26:58.009
Oh, yeah. Yeah. That would be a very cool scene.

00:26:58.190 --> 00:26:59.950
It'd be pretty shit if they did it from, like,

00:26:59.950 --> 00:27:02.029
a mile away and he's on the rooftop with a .50

00:27:02.029 --> 00:27:05.240
cal sniper rifle and just goes. Ale Hydra. Just

00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:07.640
caps him. Caps him square in the head. Caps Cap.

00:27:07.640 --> 00:27:11.740
Yeah, Caps Cap right in the squid. What? No,

00:27:12.059 --> 00:27:15.119
I think that scene would play off better if he

00:27:15.119 --> 00:27:19.859
was still dressed as Captain America before the

00:27:19.859 --> 00:27:24.359
reveal of Captain Hydra. Yeah. And then Frank

00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:28.000
Castle realising it and then pulling a gun on

00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:29.579
Captain America when everyone's like, what the

00:27:29.579 --> 00:27:32.349
fuck are you doing, Frank? Yeah. Yeah, because

00:27:32.349 --> 00:27:34.650
he knows something that nobody else knows sort

00:27:34.650 --> 00:27:36.470
of thing, and then he's like, I can give a shit,

00:27:36.490 --> 00:27:40.390
he's Hydra. But did you read the Captain Hydra

00:27:40.390 --> 00:27:43.269
storyline? No, no. He came out that he was a

00:27:43.269 --> 00:27:46.450
double, triple agent. Yeah, that was a bit of

00:27:46.450 --> 00:27:49.430
a fucking. Give me some payoff, don't you? Just

00:27:49.430 --> 00:27:51.450
because all the fanboys and the readers and that,

00:27:51.529 --> 00:27:53.150
because they were up in arms and they're like,

00:27:53.230 --> 00:27:55.710
oh, didn't they just belt it? It's like, no,

00:27:55.809 --> 00:27:58.190
give us something different. He's been around

00:27:58.190 --> 00:28:00.569
since, what, the 40s? Give us something different.

00:28:01.180 --> 00:28:05.359
Speaking about pop culture news. Yes, sir. Transition.

00:28:05.420 --> 00:28:08.019
Transition. Segway. Segway even. Yeah, look at

00:28:08.019 --> 00:28:13.359
that. The wavy lines. Yeah. I saw on my feed

00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:16.539
about the Russo brothers talking about how they

00:28:16.539 --> 00:28:21.500
have to go bigger and better than Endgame. How?

00:28:22.440 --> 00:28:26.200
If anyone can, it's them guys. But how, dude?

00:28:26.339 --> 00:28:29.660
Coming off the back of Electric State, I kind

00:28:29.660 --> 00:28:33.039
of. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen it either,

00:28:33.099 --> 00:28:35.660
but it is fucking bombed on Rotten Tomatoes,

00:28:35.660 --> 00:28:38.000
man. Really? I think it's like 14%. It's their

00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:40.660
lowest so far. I can't stand Millie Bobby Brown.

00:28:41.420 --> 00:28:44.619
Yeah, she's... Like, just seeing her interviews

00:28:44.619 --> 00:28:49.019
with, like, her cast members and shit after the

00:28:49.019 --> 00:28:52.799
success of Stranger Things. Yeah. She's... I

00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:55.359
find her very detestable. Like, she's... Too

00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:57.119
big for her own boots. She forgets where she

00:28:57.119 --> 00:28:58.660
comes from and she's like, because I'm the main

00:28:58.660 --> 00:29:00.500
character of Stranger Things, everyone else just

00:29:00.500 --> 00:29:03.900
serves me. It's like, no. Absolutely. She's just

00:29:03.900 --> 00:29:06.400
a young girl who's had all this attention, I

00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:08.700
think, and it's just gone to her head, unfortunately.

00:29:09.099 --> 00:29:11.839
Dude, massive ego inflation. She's a great actor,

00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:15.480
at least as a child actor. I haven't seen her

00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:18.440
in any movies. I don't know. She's been in Enola

00:29:18.440 --> 00:29:20.940
Holmes. Enola Holmes. Didn't mind it. I haven't

00:29:20.940 --> 00:29:22.759
watched it. The first one. I love Henry Cavill,

00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:24.579
but I'm not going to watch it because she pisses

00:29:24.579 --> 00:29:27.839
me off. I haven't watched Electric State. I probably

00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:30.619
won't. I'll dive on your grenade, mate. I'll

00:29:30.619 --> 00:29:32.420
watch it for you. Okay, thank you. Okay, and

00:29:32.420 --> 00:29:36.180
I'll report a range from 10, Aquaman, to zero,

00:29:36.299 --> 00:29:41.380
Lord of the Rings. Speaking of. I know, I've

00:29:41.380 --> 00:29:45.500
copped hate. The votes, in my favour, thank you

00:29:45.500 --> 00:29:51.529
very much, with 68%, agreeing. Now I'm not saying

00:29:51.529 --> 00:29:53.950
it is the greatest movie or series of all time,

00:29:54.029 --> 00:29:58.069
but one of the greatest. How do you like them

00:29:58.069 --> 00:30:01.190
apples? The first comment, what was this on?

00:30:01.289 --> 00:30:03.430
Because I don't have Facebook or Instagram. That

00:30:03.430 --> 00:30:06.130
was Instagram. Oh, God. People on Instagram.

00:30:06.990 --> 00:30:08.869
Just got no idea. That's where the poll was,

00:30:09.029 --> 00:30:11.329
man. Oh, was it? You voted on it. No, I didn't.

00:30:12.089 --> 00:30:14.829
Morningstar Tattoo voted on it. Yeah. Against.

00:30:15.329 --> 00:30:20.059
I thought it was you. No. God, no. Okay. I voted

00:30:20.059 --> 00:30:22.440
on YouTube and I was one of the only voters on

00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:25.920
there except for me and Tarn. And what can I

00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:32.759
say? I was right. I commented on YouTube. Yeah,

00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:35.539
even with your two votes, it still doesn't push

00:30:35.539 --> 00:30:38.079
it. I think there was 28 votes in total on Instagram.

00:30:39.539 --> 00:30:42.740
Fucking Peter Jackson fangirls and boys. I didn't

00:30:42.740 --> 00:30:44.460
like The Hobbit. It was just Lord of the Rings.

00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:46.839
What other shit has Peter Jackson done besides

00:30:46.839 --> 00:30:51.259
that King Kong? So his first movie called Bad

00:30:51.259 --> 00:30:55.079
Taste. I don't know if you've ever seen it. It

00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:57.559
was made in New Zealand back when he was young

00:30:57.559 --> 00:31:01.619
about these aliens coming to Earth. And it is

00:31:01.619 --> 00:31:06.180
fucking weird. And it's a cult thing. I'm not

00:31:06.180 --> 00:31:09.119
a big fan of it, but I watched it because, you

00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:11.660
know, Peter Jackson. He also did that Mortal

00:31:11.660 --> 00:31:14.279
Engines. Did he direct that or did he produce

00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:17.440
it? I haven't seen it. I didn't like it. So his

00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:21.180
track record is not good, and you seem to think

00:31:21.180 --> 00:31:24.640
that because you like hairy -footed hobbits.

00:31:24.900 --> 00:31:27.640
Love hairy -footed hobbits. So you think. And

00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:34.559
bearded dwarves. And pretty elves. Is that pretty

00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:36.460
elves, though? Talking about Legolas. Oh, God.

00:31:37.500 --> 00:31:42.019
Cheese and rice. Yeah, no, I don't know. It's

00:31:42.019 --> 00:31:45.750
just I think it could be. A whole lot of nostalgia

00:31:45.750 --> 00:31:49.730
for that movie. Speaking of Legolas. Yeah. First

00:31:49.730 --> 00:31:53.769
three Lord of the Rings, they're like. Elves

00:31:53.769 --> 00:31:56.410
don't age, blah, blah, blah. How old was the

00:31:56.410 --> 00:31:59.650
grandmother elf? What's her name? Cate Blanchett.

00:31:59.769 --> 00:32:02.130
Cate Blanchett. Galadriel. Galadriel. She was

00:32:02.130 --> 00:32:04.609
thousands of years old. I mean, Legolas was one

00:32:04.609 --> 00:32:06.670
of the younger ones and he was 2 ,000 years old

00:32:06.670 --> 00:32:11.529
in Lord of the Rings. 2 ,000 years old. And then

00:32:11.529 --> 00:32:14.140
he's meant to be younger in The Hobbit. And he

00:32:14.140 --> 00:32:18.180
looks so much older. The contacts, man. Why did

00:32:18.180 --> 00:32:20.720
they put contacts in his eyes? Fucking leave

00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:22.740
it alone. They should have left it. And don't

00:32:22.740 --> 00:32:25.180
put makeup on him to de -age him. Actually do

00:32:25.180 --> 00:32:28.180
something about it. Or did he need to be in there?

00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:31.259
Well, no, he's not in The Hobbit. No. He didn't

00:32:31.259 --> 00:32:33.500
need to be there, did he? There's actually a

00:32:33.500 --> 00:32:37.400
cut. You failed, Peter Jackson. You failed this

00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:41.960
city. There's actually a cut you can download,

00:32:42.220 --> 00:32:48.680
Torrent. which is The Hobbit cut. So it's the

00:32:48.680 --> 00:32:52.960
three movies cut, everything, all the fat that

00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:56.940
isn't in the book gone, put back together chronologically.

00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:00.299
It's supposed to be pretty good. Well, they did

00:33:00.299 --> 00:33:01.619
something similar to that with Breaking Bad.

00:33:02.220 --> 00:33:04.539
Did they? Yeah. There's like a two -and -a -half

00:33:04.539 --> 00:33:06.480
-hour Breaking Bad cut where they took every

00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:09.099
episode, trimmed it down to all the good shit,

00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:13.720
and it is apparently epic. Yeah, right. And that's

00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:17.829
what got... El Dorado. El Camino. El Camino,

00:33:17.970 --> 00:33:19.750
yeah. That's what got El Camino over the line.

00:33:19.849 --> 00:33:22.349
They're like, we could do this. Right. And it

00:33:22.349 --> 00:33:25.829
was because of a fan. That's like the Star Wars

00:33:25.829 --> 00:33:31.130
despecialised editions. Oh, yeah. They kind of

00:33:31.130 --> 00:33:36.230
overwrote fucking George Lucas' fiddling. Yes,

00:33:36.250 --> 00:33:38.569
they took out all George Lucas' stuff. That was

00:33:38.569 --> 00:33:41.789
my version of George Lucas' voice. And this is

00:33:41.789 --> 00:33:44.759
more like what he sounds like. Yeah, because

00:33:44.759 --> 00:33:47.380
he butchered those with the Blu -ray editions.

00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:49.700
Yeah, just some extra scenes that looked like

00:33:49.700 --> 00:33:51.700
they were made with plasticine and she was just

00:33:51.700 --> 00:33:54.980
terrible. Yeah. Even the colouring, they changed.

00:33:55.160 --> 00:33:57.759
So far off. Yeah. What other news have you got

00:33:57.759 --> 00:34:02.160
for me, sir? So South by Southwest has just ended,

00:34:02.220 --> 00:34:03.920
I believe. It's the film festival over there

00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:05.900
in the States. Oh, yep, yep, yep. They premiere

00:34:05.900 --> 00:34:08.139
a lot of stuff over there. Okay. And they were

00:34:08.139 --> 00:34:13.829
talking to Neil Blomkamp. I heard this news and

00:34:13.829 --> 00:34:18.349
I'm excited. Who is rebooting Starship Troopers,

00:34:18.469 --> 00:34:20.250
which we just happened to be talking about last

00:34:20.250 --> 00:34:22.710
week. Dude, watched it today. Yeah, I did. Watched

00:34:22.710 --> 00:34:25.670
it in the shop today. Nice. It still holds up.

00:34:25.789 --> 00:34:29.909
Yeah. Dude, so excited for that. Yeah. Seeing

00:34:29.909 --> 00:34:33.570
how well he did with practical effects and simple

00:34:33.570 --> 00:34:37.630
special effects in District 9, if he can bring

00:34:37.630 --> 00:34:40.210
that level of detail to the... To the arachnids.

00:34:40.369 --> 00:34:42.309
Mate, he's going to kill this. Yeah, absolutely.

00:34:42.590 --> 00:34:45.710
Even, what was that robot movie that he did?

00:34:45.889 --> 00:34:48.849
Chappie. Chappie. Yeah, I kind of liked it. It

00:34:48.849 --> 00:34:52.130
looked fantastic, I reckon. Hugh Jackman's hair

00:34:52.130 --> 00:34:56.309
was shit. Yeah. Yes. I'm not a big fan. And his

00:34:56.309 --> 00:34:58.230
South African accent was pretty terrible too,

00:34:58.289 --> 00:35:00.750
eh? Yeah. But yeah, so Starship Troopers getting

00:35:00.750 --> 00:35:03.710
rebooted with Sony. So excited. Be good to see

00:35:03.710 --> 00:35:07.519
a half -decent kind of budget for it. I think

00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:10.079
he's got the chops. I really wanted to see him

00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:14.760
do the alien. Yes. He actually was signed on

00:35:14.760 --> 00:35:16.679
to do it and then something happened and he added

00:35:16.679 --> 00:35:19.619
it like he was disappearing. I forget what happened

00:35:19.619 --> 00:35:21.960
there, but a whole lot of concept art that came

00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:25.320
out from that. Yeah, I was pretty keen for that.

00:35:25.500 --> 00:35:27.960
Seeing what he'd done with a little budget for

00:35:27.960 --> 00:35:29.719
District 9, because I don't think that was a

00:35:29.719 --> 00:35:32.940
big budget at all. Sony's going to throw some

00:35:32.940 --> 00:35:36.730
money at him for this. And I hope he doesn't

00:35:36.730 --> 00:35:43.710
overextend and keeps – I'd rather see him use

00:35:43.710 --> 00:35:46.130
the same technology that he used for Dick Street

00:35:46.130 --> 00:35:48.369
Nine to get the character of the prawns. Yeah.

00:35:49.610 --> 00:35:53.110
But flush out more of this story. I want to see

00:35:53.110 --> 00:35:55.530
more of – I want him to keep in the – would you

00:35:55.530 --> 00:35:57.750
like to know more? Like the whole – the news

00:35:57.750 --> 00:36:01.170
cut of it? Well, I mean, yes and no. Because

00:36:01.170 --> 00:36:03.829
I haven't read the book, so I'm only going in

00:36:03.829 --> 00:36:06.630
what I know. Well, the movie, that was a complete

00:36:06.630 --> 00:36:09.289
different kind of take. Right. They did that

00:36:09.289 --> 00:36:12.650
whole, you know, mockumentary type style thing

00:36:12.650 --> 00:36:16.590
about it. I kind of would like to see it more

00:36:16.590 --> 00:36:19.889
of a linear storyline. Right. Because you are

00:36:19.889 --> 00:36:23.010
right, it does chop back a bit. Yeah. Because

00:36:23.010 --> 00:36:24.849
the book was good. Like, it's a good source material.

00:36:25.190 --> 00:36:29.530
Yeah. And, I mean. I don't know whether I wanted

00:36:29.530 --> 00:36:32.829
to lean into the campiness again. Right. Because

00:36:32.829 --> 00:36:34.889
we've got that. You know what I mean? I'd like

00:36:34.889 --> 00:36:36.670
to see a serious take this time. Yeah, let's

00:36:36.670 --> 00:36:40.489
go. Okay. Yeah. A gory take this time. Make it

00:36:40.489 --> 00:36:44.610
more hardcore. Maybe like Zeno's kind of alien

00:36:44.610 --> 00:36:48.710
style. More scary. Yeah. Yeah. Some more edge

00:36:48.710 --> 00:36:51.989
into it. Bugs are fucked up. Yeah. I want to

00:36:51.989 --> 00:36:53.789
see more of this. So you've got to watch it like

00:36:53.789 --> 00:36:56.550
that. Yeah. Can you imagine a big bug? Like a

00:36:56.550 --> 00:37:00.070
big bug would be fucking. Less vagina bugs. Less

00:37:00.070 --> 00:37:05.010
vagina bugs, yeah. That was very, very vagina.

00:37:05.389 --> 00:37:09.710
Yeah, it was. And they were bright and colourful

00:37:09.710 --> 00:37:15.409
and they looked cool. The book isn't clearly

00:37:15.409 --> 00:37:19.269
a novel. There's no images in it. I'm pretty

00:37:19.269 --> 00:37:21.789
sure it's more of a novella because it's only

00:37:21.789 --> 00:37:24.030
pretty short. Is there images in it? No, no,

00:37:24.050 --> 00:37:25.690
no. It's a straight up sci -fi. I think it was

00:37:25.690 --> 00:37:27.909
published in a science fiction magazine back

00:37:27.909 --> 00:37:29.489
in the 70s or something like that. Right, okay.

00:37:29.550 --> 00:37:34.750
So I loved the character design except for the

00:37:34.750 --> 00:37:38.690
vagina bug, the brain bug. Yeah. I really dug

00:37:38.690 --> 00:37:41.550
the character design. Yeah. Even down to the

00:37:41.550 --> 00:37:45.030
lava spilling Christmas beetle. Yeah. They were,

00:37:45.230 --> 00:37:49.530
it was fantastic. Like I said, the animal design,

00:37:49.730 --> 00:37:54.550
the monster design was. Just great. So to come

00:37:54.550 --> 00:37:59.670
into this new one with Neil Blomkamp, if he is

00:37:59.670 --> 00:38:03.449
allowed to do what he does, fantastic. If Sony

00:38:03.449 --> 00:38:05.989
comes in and goes, hey, Madam Wen was a massive

00:38:05.989 --> 00:38:09.710
success, we need you to keep to that. Did he

00:38:09.710 --> 00:38:14.329
do Elysium? Yes. Yeah. That looked visually fantastic.

00:38:14.630 --> 00:38:20.010
Yeah. Agreed. And it was a big movie and it kind

00:38:20.010 --> 00:38:23.719
of had that. action kind of, because I think

00:38:23.719 --> 00:38:27.519
he really likes mechanoid stuff. Yeah, so robotic

00:38:27.519 --> 00:38:29.860
and there's a lot of that. Yeah, well, there's

00:38:29.860 --> 00:38:32.559
the mechs in Elysium as well. Yeah. With Matt

00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:36.059
Damon. Yeah. It could be really cool seeing a

00:38:36.059 --> 00:38:37.940
whole heap of people kind of getting around in

00:38:37.940 --> 00:38:42.599
like Day After Tomorrow kind of style suits and

00:38:42.599 --> 00:38:46.489
fighting big bugs and shooting big guns. In Starship

00:38:46.489 --> 00:38:49.269
Troopers Marauder, which is the third one, they're

00:38:49.269 --> 00:38:51.309
actually in like, you ever play that game back

00:38:51.309 --> 00:38:54.170
in the day, MechWarrior? Absolutely. Well, that's

00:38:54.170 --> 00:38:56.750
the Marauder suits were like MechWarriors. Right,

00:38:56.750 --> 00:39:02.269
yep. That were animated in Windows 95. I mean,

00:39:02.349 --> 00:39:04.269
it's probably got to be better than RoboJocks.

00:39:04.389 --> 00:39:06.190
Did you ever watch that back in the day? No.

00:39:06.269 --> 00:39:09.969
Ooh, 80s. Yeah. Nostalgia right there. Really?

00:39:10.170 --> 00:39:14.090
RoboJocks, yeah. But then, but going back to

00:39:14.090 --> 00:39:18.639
Alien. Mm -hmm. The mechanised loader. The loader,

00:39:18.659 --> 00:39:20.840
yeah. I know that was a bodybuilder in the suit,

00:39:20.940 --> 00:39:24.719
but that was cool. It was cool. I dug that. Yeah.

00:39:25.320 --> 00:39:26.940
Did you ever see, like, the Halloween costume

00:39:26.940 --> 00:39:29.840
of that? Yeah, with the baby in that, yeah. So

00:39:29.840 --> 00:39:32.119
good. Basic as shit, but it looks so good. Yeah.

00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:34.940
But, yeah, very excited for it. Yeah, I think

00:39:34.940 --> 00:39:36.619
you can pull off something good. Absolutely.

00:39:36.900 --> 00:39:40.599
And I do love a good sci -fi movie. Mm -hmm.

00:39:41.380 --> 00:39:45.139
The other thing I saw. Mortal Kombat 2 is coming

00:39:45.139 --> 00:39:48.219
out soon. Yes. Did you see who they've cast as

00:39:48.219 --> 00:39:51.280
Johnny Cage? He looks old. The man of many faces.

00:39:51.739 --> 00:39:55.079
He's Carl Urban. I'm happy with that. Dude, he's

00:39:55.079 --> 00:39:57.860
got to be the king of the nerds right now. You

00:39:57.860 --> 00:40:03.219
look at Doom. Yep. The boys. Judge Dredd. Dude,

00:40:03.639 --> 00:40:06.440
we need more Judge Dredd, man. Give that man

00:40:06.440 --> 00:40:09.019
the helmet and give me more Judge Dredd. Yeah,

00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:14.550
it was that movie. Chef's kiss. Which one? Dread.

00:40:15.369 --> 00:40:18.190
The second one. No. Yeah, obviously. There's

00:40:18.190 --> 00:40:20.630
only one, mate. Don't go bringing Sly Stallone's

00:40:20.630 --> 00:40:23.190
movie into this. I did like Stallone's version.

00:40:23.269 --> 00:40:26.809
So campy. I know. I know. But I loved it as a

00:40:26.809 --> 00:40:28.570
kid, man. I thought it was fantastic. The inbred

00:40:28.570 --> 00:40:32.989
cannibals in the desert. Back on Carl Urban.

00:40:33.170 --> 00:40:35.530
Yeah. Yeah, he played one of the Asgardians.

00:40:35.630 --> 00:40:38.070
I forget what the name of him. Pretty funny character.

00:40:38.730 --> 00:40:41.510
Skull. It was Skull. Skull, was it? Yeah, he

00:40:41.510 --> 00:40:45.329
was. Skurg. Skurge. Skurge. Skurge. Yeah. Not

00:40:45.329 --> 00:40:48.429
Skull. He was Bones in Star Trek. I was about

00:40:48.429 --> 00:40:52.510
to say Star Trek. Man, he's been in a lot. He

00:40:52.510 --> 00:40:53.929
was. Laurel and Hardy. Laurel and Hardy, yeah.

00:40:56.530 --> 00:40:59.369
So you fucking know. Oh, shut up. It's just because

00:40:59.369 --> 00:41:01.250
I remember stupid shit like that. Yeah, probably.

00:41:01.630 --> 00:41:04.250
You can ask me stuff I said last week. I've got

00:41:04.250 --> 00:41:07.670
no idea. Ask me some obscure thing about a movie

00:41:07.670 --> 00:41:10.389
from the 80s, 90s or noughts. And I don't know.

00:41:11.449 --> 00:41:13.610
Just in there, bubbling away in the back of the

00:41:13.610 --> 00:41:15.969
brain. Yeah. But, yeah, Johnny Cage, one of my

00:41:15.969 --> 00:41:18.329
favourite characters, finished number two with

00:41:18.329 --> 00:41:20.550
Johnny Cage the whole way through with the high

00:41:20.550 --> 00:41:23.329
kick. And that's all I used. Oh, did you use

00:41:23.329 --> 00:41:26.309
nut punch? Yeah. I didn't mind the first one.

00:41:27.829 --> 00:41:35.250
The newest. Kano, the Australian swearer. Sensational.

00:41:35.369 --> 00:41:40.599
Yeah. Loved it. And Scorpion was so good. So

00:41:40.599 --> 00:41:45.280
good, man. I want to see more. I do. And I think

00:41:45.280 --> 00:41:48.099
it's about, I think it's really good that we're

00:41:48.099 --> 00:41:51.500
getting rated R, more rated R content, you know,

00:41:51.519 --> 00:41:54.420
because you think about the people who were around

00:41:54.420 --> 00:41:57.199
when these games, movies and properties were

00:41:57.199 --> 00:41:58.719
brought around. And what we were exposed to at

00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:00.800
that time. What we were exposed to. A, B, A,

00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:02.980
C, A, B, B. Give me the blood code on the Sega

00:42:02.980 --> 00:42:05.300
Mega Drive. I don't know how I remember that.

00:42:05.360 --> 00:42:08.719
I don't know how you remember that. A -B -A -C

00:42:08.719 --> 00:42:11.239
-A -B -B. It's the blood code. Put that in at

00:42:11.239 --> 00:42:16.500
the start menu. You get blood. Knowing that we

00:42:16.500 --> 00:42:19.300
grew up back then and we're the ones that are

00:42:19.300 --> 00:42:21.559
going to go watch it because it's tickling our

00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:24.400
nostalgia bone. We're all over the age of 18.

00:42:25.300 --> 00:42:27.880
Give us that rated R bullshit. We're not going

00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:30.139
to take our 8 -year -old kid to – well, I probably

00:42:30.139 --> 00:42:32.139
will. We're not going to take our 8 -year -old

00:42:32.139 --> 00:42:34.559
kid to go watch Mortal Kombat. We're not going

00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:39.340
to take your old kid to go watch Dread. No. Give

00:42:39.340 --> 00:42:42.780
us that, dude. Yeah. You've seen Deadpool. It

00:42:42.780 --> 00:42:45.659
works. You've seen Dread. It works. Absolutely.

00:42:45.820 --> 00:42:49.500
Fucking let's go. Show me more. Yeah. Cater to

00:42:49.500 --> 00:42:52.780
the audience. A perfect example. Point Break.

00:42:53.079 --> 00:42:56.860
Yeah. The 90s movie. What were your thoughts?

00:42:57.619 --> 00:43:00.380
I enjoyed it. One of the best movies that's ever

00:43:00.380 --> 00:43:03.780
been made. Yeah. It is. Point Break, it still

00:43:03.780 --> 00:43:05.519
holds up today. Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze,

00:43:05.659 --> 00:43:08.519
sensational. Gary Busey before he had brain aneurysm.

00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:11.619
Or a car accident, either or. Then they remade

00:43:11.619 --> 00:43:15.059
Point Break. They called it Point Break. Had

00:43:15.059 --> 00:43:19.840
one surfing scene in it. Yeah. Why did you need

00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:22.039
to name that Point Break? It could have. It could

00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:24.599
have been a completely different movie. They

00:43:24.599 --> 00:43:27.000
did it with Fast and the Furious. It's the exact

00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:29.920
same movie. Fast and the Furious and Point Break.

00:43:30.989 --> 00:43:34.349
Just with cars instead of surfing. No. It is.

00:43:34.489 --> 00:43:38.309
No. Yeah, it is. No. 100%, man. I'm not. Think

00:43:38.309 --> 00:43:44.130
about it. Point Break wasn't about family. Score.

00:43:44.590 --> 00:43:46.929
Well, it kind of was. It was kind of about that

00:43:46.929 --> 00:43:48.929
found family that they had together when they

00:43:48.929 --> 00:43:51.289
were robbing the banks with all the president

00:43:51.289 --> 00:43:53.230
masks on and shit like that. They're all kind

00:43:53.230 --> 00:43:56.429
of thrill seekers fucking banded together. But

00:43:56.429 --> 00:43:58.530
I didn't get that. I thought it was just a means

00:43:58.530 --> 00:44:01.710
to an end for that. I didn't see. That is a family

00:44:01.710 --> 00:44:05.710
dynamic. I just sort of seen it as a bunch of

00:44:05.710 --> 00:44:07.590
young blokes that had an interest in surfing

00:44:07.590 --> 00:44:12.570
together. They partied together, yeah, but even

00:44:12.570 --> 00:44:16.190
when his girlfriend, who he was apparently in

00:44:16.190 --> 00:44:18.429
love with and was a member of his family, he

00:44:18.429 --> 00:44:21.070
literally hired a crazy person to kidnap her

00:44:21.070 --> 00:44:24.940
and cut her to pieces. So I can't see Vin Diesel

00:44:24.940 --> 00:44:27.760
doing that to Michelle Rodriguez in Fast and

00:44:27.760 --> 00:44:29.579
Furious. Yeah, you're looking too deep that way.

00:44:29.699 --> 00:44:32.980
That's more family. But the undercover agent

00:44:32.980 --> 00:44:36.519
that goes too deep into that and goes into that

00:44:36.519 --> 00:44:39.719
lifestyle and then lets Patrick Swayze go at

00:44:39.719 --> 00:44:44.480
the end, lets Vin Diesel go at the end, it's

00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:47.840
basically the same movie. But Keanu Reeves knew

00:44:47.840 --> 00:44:50.130
that he wasn't coming back off that wave. Keanu

00:44:50.130 --> 00:44:51.869
Reeves knew he was going to die on that wave.

00:44:51.909 --> 00:44:55.409
That's why you let him go. Mate, semantics. You

00:44:55.409 --> 00:44:57.869
change a little bit, you don't want to get done

00:44:57.869 --> 00:45:01.650
with copyright. It's basically the same thing.

00:45:02.250 --> 00:45:06.289
Same formula. Yeah, there we go. Okay, because

00:45:06.289 --> 00:45:08.769
Fast and Furious is actually based on a news

00:45:08.769 --> 00:45:12.090
report about underground street racing in LA.

00:45:12.309 --> 00:45:15.730
But based on the frame of point blank. Point

00:45:15.730 --> 00:45:19.340
blank. Fuck. Point Blank, what a great game.

00:45:19.440 --> 00:45:21.300
Did you ever see they made a movie of that? So

00:45:21.300 --> 00:45:24.900
bad. Anyway. Point Break. Point Break, yeah.

00:45:25.039 --> 00:45:27.559
Yes. But, yeah, they didn't need to make Point

00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:31.519
Break the remake. No, that's right. That first

00:45:31.519 --> 00:45:37.460
one was perfect. Just leave it. There's so many

00:45:37.460 --> 00:45:39.420
other movies like that, though, and it just shits

00:45:39.420 --> 00:45:42.099
me to tears. Yeah, absolutely. It doesn't need

00:45:42.099 --> 00:45:44.380
to be done. Another thing that came up at South

00:45:44.380 --> 00:45:49.460
by Southwest was the director, From Cloverfield.

00:45:49.659 --> 00:45:53.059
Ooh, yeah. Has said that he's still. Was that

00:45:53.059 --> 00:45:56.039
not J .J. Abrams? J .J. Abrams, I think, had

00:45:56.039 --> 00:45:57.719
something to do with it, maybe produced it. It

00:45:57.719 --> 00:46:01.420
was Bad Robot. That's right. It was his production

00:46:01.420 --> 00:46:03.559
company. That's right. But he's working on a

00:46:03.559 --> 00:46:06.500
sequel. Now, that's a trilogy. So you've got

00:46:06.500 --> 00:46:09.139
Cloverfield, Cloverfield Paradox, and then Cloverfield

00:46:09.139 --> 00:46:12.519
Lane. Yeah, but the other two weren't made by

00:46:12.519 --> 00:46:15.019
him, weren't directed by him. Right. So they're

00:46:15.019 --> 00:46:17.019
in the same universe. Okay. They're kind of.

00:46:17.719 --> 00:46:21.019
what was going on with that entire thing. But,

00:46:21.039 --> 00:46:23.980
yeah, he's working on a straight -up sequel.

00:46:24.260 --> 00:46:27.219
How did you feel about Cloverfield, knowing that

00:46:27.219 --> 00:46:32.019
it was like the fan footage film? Did you leave

00:46:32.019 --> 00:46:34.659
going, what the fuck happened? Where did it come

00:46:34.659 --> 00:46:38.400
from? What was it? Yeah. Did you run into that

00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:41.139
or were you happy with it? I enjoyed it. Yeah?

00:46:41.699 --> 00:46:46.989
It definitely missed out on that. the publicity

00:46:46.989 --> 00:46:51.769
that the pioneering Blair Witch had. The Blair

00:46:51.769 --> 00:46:54.969
Witch, yeah. Dude, that was, everyone was sharing

00:46:54.969 --> 00:46:57.289
that before. Now, you had to watch the trailer.

00:46:57.369 --> 00:46:59.010
You had to spend three and a half hours in front

00:46:59.010 --> 00:47:01.409
of your PC, downloading at 56 kilobytes a second.

00:47:01.630 --> 00:47:04.530
Yeah, like they made fake articles for that.

00:47:04.570 --> 00:47:06.650
Yeah, dude. There was fake websites. There was.

00:47:06.869 --> 00:47:09.389
People thought that shit was real, man. Legit,

00:47:09.389 --> 00:47:11.409
yeah. And the first paranormal activity was the

00:47:11.409 --> 00:47:14.710
same. Yeah, the birth of the internet kind of.

00:47:15.500 --> 00:47:18.440
Yeah, they had this viral campaign. Absolutely.

00:47:18.719 --> 00:47:21.440
It was incredible. Yeah, and it's still one of

00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:24.119
my favourite scary movies. Yeah. Well, they even

00:47:24.119 --> 00:47:30.000
had the three main actors. Apparently they weren't

00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:34.079
even in on it. I think they were brought in not

00:47:34.079 --> 00:47:37.079
knowing to begin with. They're like, here, we're

00:47:37.079 --> 00:47:41.710
going to send you there. So some genuine reactions,

00:47:41.829 --> 00:47:43.989
I think, until about halfway through the production.

00:47:44.269 --> 00:47:47.369
Because they weren't even allowed to, they didn't

00:47:47.369 --> 00:47:49.809
attend the premiere, they didn't do no press,

00:47:50.010 --> 00:47:52.150
there was no nothing. It was just like, these

00:47:52.150 --> 00:47:54.929
fuckers actually died. Yeah. It was meant to

00:47:54.929 --> 00:47:58.670
be thought of as a legit documentary. And it

00:47:58.670 --> 00:48:03.349
worked. It worked so well. I don't think we will

00:48:03.349 --> 00:48:06.710
see the like of that kind of. And I think it

00:48:06.710 --> 00:48:09.889
was some stupid budget like. $57 ,000 or something

00:48:09.889 --> 00:48:11.989
they spent on back in the day. Yeah, not much

00:48:11.989 --> 00:48:14.630
at all. If you look at Clerks, that was $50 ,000.

00:48:14.869 --> 00:48:19.429
Yeah. And that was in the 90s, 92. Yeah. And

00:48:19.429 --> 00:48:21.670
Kevin Smith's even said that he filmed that in

00:48:21.670 --> 00:48:24.210
his convenience store where he worked after hours.

00:48:24.349 --> 00:48:26.769
After hours, yeah. With his friends. Yeah. And

00:48:26.769 --> 00:48:30.429
it's still costing 50 grand. Yeah. To have that

00:48:30.429 --> 00:48:33.670
film be, to have the Blair Witch Project as successful

00:48:33.670 --> 00:48:36.690
as it was on the shoestring budget was just unheard

00:48:36.690 --> 00:48:39.099
of. Yeah. Whoever came up with that viral campaign

00:48:39.099 --> 00:48:42.800
idea was definitely what sold it. Absolutely.

00:48:43.039 --> 00:48:45.219
And I think there's probably a good chance they

00:48:45.219 --> 00:48:48.440
spent most of their budget on that. Yeah. Building

00:48:48.440 --> 00:48:52.119
websites and convincing people to run articles.

00:48:52.400 --> 00:48:55.440
Dude, I remember searching when I was a teenager.

00:48:55.579 --> 00:49:00.820
Like the website, what is the Blair Witch? Horrific.

00:49:01.340 --> 00:49:05.159
Yeah. Horrific. Yeah. To something to kind of.

00:49:06.699 --> 00:49:10.820
put on the developing brain of a generation and

00:49:10.820 --> 00:49:13.619
the way that they think about shit nowadays.

00:49:13.840 --> 00:49:16.940
Yeah, it definitely had an influence on a lot

00:49:16.940 --> 00:49:20.139
of people. Well, dude, you have a look at what

00:49:20.139 --> 00:49:23.500
it has influence even in the media. Like found

00:49:23.500 --> 00:49:25.280
film footage has become a genre on all of its

00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:27.519
own. Yeah, absolutely. Whether it be horror,

00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:32.079
science fiction, comedy, you know, scary movie,

00:49:32.360 --> 00:49:34.500
haunted house, all these things are found footage

00:49:34.500 --> 00:49:39.760
films. It's just from that one film. Yeah. There's

00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:42.679
not many movies around that have sort of ushered

00:49:42.679 --> 00:49:45.880
in a whole genre of film on its own. I want to

00:49:45.880 --> 00:49:48.679
watch that again, yeah. Like even now, 25 years

00:49:48.679 --> 00:49:50.900
later, you say fan footage and you're like Blair

00:49:50.900 --> 00:49:53.639
Witch straight away. Yeah. That's pretty much

00:49:53.639 --> 00:49:57.659
all I've got for the news part of it. Okay. And

00:49:57.659 --> 00:50:01.900
now we have our rant and sundry segment. Well,

00:50:01.980 --> 00:50:03.900
this is where we're going to have some fun. I

00:50:03.900 --> 00:50:06.070
want to know, what's your favourite? Sci -fi

00:50:06.070 --> 00:50:10.889
movie of all time. Ooh. Interstellar's not really

00:50:10.889 --> 00:50:15.469
sci -fi. It's more of a documentary. And it's

00:50:15.469 --> 00:50:19.670
more the score for that that sells me. Yeah.

00:50:20.409 --> 00:50:23.949
I get so many feelings from the score in that

00:50:23.949 --> 00:50:27.809
movie. Sci -fi. Holy shit, dude. That's my wheelhouse.

00:50:27.849 --> 00:50:29.550
That's my jam. That's my favourite. That's what

00:50:29.550 --> 00:50:32.590
I'd ask you. Oblivion with Tom Cruise is always

00:50:32.590 --> 00:50:35.829
a go -to for me. That was a great movie. Stylistically,

00:50:35.969 --> 00:50:38.929
it looked fantastic. Didn't change the world,

00:50:39.010 --> 00:50:41.809
but it was a great watch. Yeah. The OG Star Trek

00:50:41.809 --> 00:50:47.949
with, not the OG Star Trek, like the remake Star

00:50:47.949 --> 00:50:49.769
Trek. The first of the remakes. Yeah, the J .J.

00:50:49.789 --> 00:50:54.550
Abrams one. Yeah. I know everyone would expect

00:50:54.550 --> 00:51:00.449
me to say Star Wars, but no. Look, I love Star

00:51:00.449 --> 00:51:08.119
Wars. Yeah. Not my favourite sci -fi. Yeah. We're

00:51:08.119 --> 00:51:11.159
not going to class Endgame as sci -fi, are we?

00:51:11.380 --> 00:51:13.059
No, it's a comic book movie. Yeah, let's give

00:51:13.059 --> 00:51:15.800
that. Comic book movie. Can I give you a five?

00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:18.420
Can I give you a top five? Meet Half -Life, give

00:51:18.420 --> 00:51:21.440
me the top three. Okay. In no specific order.

00:51:21.559 --> 00:51:25.219
Okay. Blade Runner 2049. Ooh, yes. Interstellar.

00:51:25.400 --> 00:51:28.179
Mm -hmm. Day After Tomorrow. All good choices.

00:51:28.639 --> 00:51:32.500
Thank you. Yeah. What about you? Now, there's

00:51:32.500 --> 00:51:34.239
probably one I'm forgetting. We're not going

00:51:34.239 --> 00:51:38.920
to class Ready Player One as sci -fi. No. That's

00:51:38.920 --> 00:51:43.179
reality. That's going to happen. Don't, because

00:51:43.179 --> 00:51:44.920
it's going to make my list so much harder. Yeah,

00:51:44.940 --> 00:51:46.679
no, we'll just go with your first three. Okay,

00:51:46.760 --> 00:51:48.659
you give me three. No, I'm going to give you

00:51:48.659 --> 00:51:54.539
my favourite. Ooh, okay. Arrival. All right.

00:51:57.559 --> 00:52:03.010
That was a thinker. Yeah. That had my brain ticking,

00:52:03.309 --> 00:52:06.110
dude. And in my opinion, that's what a really

00:52:06.110 --> 00:52:14.190
good sci -fi should do. I don't know. I can't

00:52:14.190 --> 00:52:19.730
sell that movie. Yeah. I can't tell you. I can

00:52:19.730 --> 00:52:23.329
sell you a movie. I can explain it in a way where

00:52:23.329 --> 00:52:25.530
I'm like, you're like, okay, I'm going to watch

00:52:25.530 --> 00:52:31.139
that. I can't sell Arrival to you. Yeah. I get

00:52:31.139 --> 00:52:32.480
that. Without saying there's an egg that comes

00:52:32.480 --> 00:52:34.960
to Earth and it's run by octopuses. Well, not

00:52:34.960 --> 00:52:37.719
really octopuses. It's more like a hand. And

00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:42.619
they do graffiti. That's basically what I can

00:52:42.619 --> 00:52:46.659
sell to you. I don't have the vocabulary to explain

00:52:46.659 --> 00:52:49.760
that movie to a layman. Aliens come to Earth

00:52:49.760 --> 00:52:53.000
looking for man's help? No, that still wouldn't

00:52:53.000 --> 00:52:56.159
sell it to me. Yeah, okay. But when you watch

00:52:56.159 --> 00:53:01.030
that movie, you're like. Yeah. Beautiful ending,

00:53:01.230 --> 00:53:04.730
dude. Yeah. Oh, my God, that ending. That's what

00:53:04.730 --> 00:53:08.829
sells it for me, above Interstellar. That fucking

00:53:08.829 --> 00:53:12.570
ending. Yeah. The whole way through it where

00:53:12.570 --> 00:53:15.349
she's having them visions and you think her kid

00:53:15.349 --> 00:53:17.530
has died, but it's not that. I think it's her

00:53:17.530 --> 00:53:20.550
memory. Yeah. Is it a memory, but it's not from

00:53:20.550 --> 00:53:25.019
the past? It's not from that. Bro. It's got levels,

00:53:25.119 --> 00:53:28.820
man. So many levels and visually gorgeous. Yes.

00:53:29.079 --> 00:53:32.179
Beautiful. Great actors, Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner.

00:53:32.239 --> 00:53:35.760
Yeah. Their tension. Yeah. The levels of it.

00:53:35.780 --> 00:53:38.519
Like to play them meeting for the first time

00:53:38.519 --> 00:53:42.219
but you think they've got like a past. You think

00:53:42.219 --> 00:53:43.719
they've got a past. You think they've got some

00:53:43.719 --> 00:53:45.760
chemistry but they don't. Like that's their first

00:53:45.760 --> 00:53:48.840
meeting and you think she's like she's closed

00:53:48.840 --> 00:53:51.119
off in a way where you think that the child has

00:53:51.119 --> 00:53:54.389
passed. Mm -hmm. But it hasn't. She's yet to

00:53:54.389 --> 00:53:59.829
open up, but then. Yeah. That was well done.

00:53:59.909 --> 00:54:03.070
Well played, sir. That's probably why it's my

00:54:03.070 --> 00:54:05.269
favourite sci -fi movie of all time. Love it.

00:54:05.789 --> 00:54:09.550
He's done some fantastic movies. I'm not aware

00:54:09.550 --> 00:54:12.409
of the director. Who is the director? Denis.

00:54:13.349 --> 00:54:17.570
Villeneuve. Villeneuve. The god, dude. Mr. Dune

00:54:17.570 --> 00:54:20.690
himself. He did Dune 1 and 2, and he also did

00:54:20.690 --> 00:54:24.570
Blade Runner 2049. Mate. Yeah. He can pull off

00:54:24.570 --> 00:54:28.150
a set piece. Mate, anything that Denis Villeneuve

00:54:28.150 --> 00:54:31.010
directs, you bet your ass I'll be watching it.

00:54:31.090 --> 00:54:32.949
Yeah, absolutely. I did not know he made that

00:54:32.949 --> 00:54:35.809
movie. Yeah, he did. I had no idea. Makes sense,

00:54:35.809 --> 00:54:41.329
though, because bloke can direct a film. His

00:54:41.329 --> 00:54:48.789
wide shots for scenes, especially in Dune, the

00:54:48.789 --> 00:54:51.460
first one, they're just. They paint a picture

00:54:51.460 --> 00:54:56.460
of a world that could be real. Yes. It's fucking

00:54:56.460 --> 00:54:58.739
phenomenal. And from a place that is primarily

00:54:58.739 --> 00:55:03.380
fucking sand. It's got character. Oh, yeah. It's

00:55:03.380 --> 00:55:06.559
got character. Now, they did a deep dive. There

00:55:06.559 --> 00:55:09.579
was a bloke on YouTube who did a deep dive on

00:55:09.579 --> 00:55:14.239
the structures. He made the structures to be

00:55:14.239 --> 00:55:17.260
able to withstand the high -speed sandblasting

00:55:17.260 --> 00:55:20.380
that it would take. Yep. He made the buildings

00:55:20.380 --> 00:55:23.000
so that they would be actually, if we're going

00:55:23.000 --> 00:55:24.440
to build on this desert that's going to have

00:55:24.440 --> 00:55:27.139
these massive high winds and these huge ass worms,

00:55:27.420 --> 00:55:29.800
this is what they're going to have to be built

00:55:29.800 --> 00:55:33.599
like to last. When you're inside them buildings,

00:55:33.780 --> 00:55:37.480
you feel like it's not disconnected from the

00:55:37.480 --> 00:55:39.860
outside. And then when you look at them big broad

00:55:39.860 --> 00:55:42.880
shots where you see the craft coming in and then

00:55:42.880 --> 00:55:45.920
it's coming into the cities, you're like, I can

00:55:45.920 --> 00:55:50.019
see that. You think. practically it's been built

00:55:50.019 --> 00:55:53.019
and they're going to a set location. It's not

00:55:53.019 --> 00:55:56.920
even there. No. And the scale of the ships in

00:55:56.920 --> 00:56:03.500
Dune, mind -boggling. And not even just to kind

00:56:03.500 --> 00:56:08.280
of just talk about Dune, but like even Blade

00:56:08.280 --> 00:56:13.300
Runner 2044. 2049. 2049, yes. Thank you. Some

00:56:13.300 --> 00:56:15.739
of the set pieces in it, the way he uses light.

00:56:16.489 --> 00:56:21.530
Yeah. In the desert and then in the city, on

00:56:21.530 --> 00:56:25.789
the beach, just the tones are gorgeous and the

00:56:25.789 --> 00:56:30.510
way it just kind of almost looks like a matte

00:56:30.510 --> 00:56:33.949
painting in the background but it's not. You

00:56:33.949 --> 00:56:37.690
can feel the depth in it. Yeah, it's sensational

00:56:37.690 --> 00:56:42.730
to watch. You put, see, Hans Zimmer, the composer,

00:56:42.929 --> 00:56:47.059
elevates anything, right? Yeah. He'd done the

00:56:47.059 --> 00:56:51.139
score for Dune, 2049, Interstellar, basically

00:56:51.139 --> 00:56:52.840
anything that's awesome in the last 20 years,

00:56:52.840 --> 00:56:57.679
he's done the score for, right? Yeah. You put

00:56:57.679 --> 00:57:03.239
his talent beside anything, 2049, if you mute

00:57:03.239 --> 00:57:07.380
that without any score, it just doesn't change

00:57:07.380 --> 00:57:12.900
at all. No. You put his music over anything and

00:57:12.900 --> 00:57:17.159
it just elevates it like that. He does stuff

00:57:17.159 --> 00:57:19.960
with, we've seen him do it with Christopher Nolan

00:57:19.960 --> 00:57:21.860
in the Dark Knight series all the way through,

00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:25.659
Interstellar, Tenet, and then you've seen him

00:57:25.659 --> 00:57:34.699
do Dune, Dune 2, 2049 with Denis. And I challenge

00:57:34.699 --> 00:57:40.320
anyone to be able to do and merge with two directors

00:57:40.320 --> 00:57:43.179
like that and still bring that top tier sound.

00:57:43.420 --> 00:57:50.550
Yeah. Brings the heat. Oh, yeah. Dude, when I

00:57:50.550 --> 00:57:51.929
used to work with everybody, everyone would be

00:57:51.929 --> 00:57:53.510
like, oh, is it the best score you've ever heard?

00:57:53.670 --> 00:57:56.309
Because I'd say about anything that Hans Zimmer

00:57:56.309 --> 00:57:58.849
did. There was even days where I'd just play

00:57:58.849 --> 00:58:00.449
Hans Zimmer scores all the way through the show.

00:58:00.650 --> 00:58:03.590
Yeah, why wouldn't you? He'd done Inception as

00:58:03.590 --> 00:58:08.110
well with Christopher Nolan. But, dude, good

00:58:08.110 --> 00:58:12.679
Paul. I like that. I do have a – Honourable mention

00:58:12.679 --> 00:58:17.039
for favourite sci -fi. While I think there is

00:58:17.039 --> 00:58:20.179
better sci -fi out there, one of my favourites

00:58:20.179 --> 00:58:25.260
would probably be Fifth Element. Yes. Hell, yeah.

00:58:25.739 --> 00:58:30.360
Luke Bronson, is he? Yeah. Besson. Besson. Luke

00:58:30.360 --> 00:58:34.980
Besson. French name. Damn. Yeah. Yeah. Just that

00:58:34.980 --> 00:58:38.340
movie was fantastic. So good. Well, a bit of

00:58:38.340 --> 00:58:41.920
trivia for you. They were dying. Milla Jovovich's

00:58:41.920 --> 00:58:44.739
hair that much that it started to die and her

00:58:44.739 --> 00:58:46.500
hair started falling out, so they had to make

00:58:46.500 --> 00:58:49.960
a wig. Yeah. And I'm like, holy shit. It's pretty

00:58:49.960 --> 00:58:52.480
wild. But that was her first role too, her first

00:58:52.480 --> 00:58:54.780
film role. First big role, yeah, I think it was,

00:58:54.900 --> 00:58:57.699
or at least first Hollywood role. I think she'd

00:58:57.699 --> 00:59:00.099
done French stuff beforehand. Yeah, and the,

00:59:00.219 --> 00:59:04.320
was it the opera singer was Luke Besson's wife

00:59:04.320 --> 00:59:07.059
or something, but then he was sleeping with Angelina,

00:59:07.179 --> 00:59:10.579
not Angelina Jolie, Jesus Christ. Emilia Jokovic

00:59:10.579 --> 00:59:13.599
on the side. I'm like, what the fuck, bro? Jesus.

00:59:13.840 --> 00:59:18.199
The language that she spoke, that was actually

00:59:18.199 --> 00:59:22.219
created by the director, and they actually ended

00:59:22.219 --> 00:59:25.139
up speaking it fluently, him and Emilia Jokovic.

00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:28.679
So that's how they got the cheats. Yeah, by the

00:59:28.679 --> 00:59:34.519
end of finishing the movie. But, yeah, Chris

00:59:34.519 --> 00:59:38.429
Tucker in that movie, I mean. Fucking hell. Ruby

00:59:38.429 --> 00:59:42.449
Rat. I think he was really keen to do the role

00:59:42.449 --> 00:59:47.309
and then he saw some of the costumes and was

00:59:47.309 --> 00:59:50.429
like, oh, hell no. And then he read the script

00:59:50.429 --> 00:59:54.349
and he's like, oh, okay. Khan's got a dick on

00:59:54.349 --> 00:59:59.750
his head all the time. Who the fuck thought of

00:59:59.750 --> 01:00:02.650
that? Well, I mean. A leopard leotard and a dick

01:00:02.650 --> 01:00:05.030
on your head, bro. It makes sense for something

01:00:05.030 --> 01:00:08.960
set in the future to. For us to find that so

01:00:08.960 --> 01:00:13.599
strange and jarring, like, yeah, it makes sense.

01:00:13.840 --> 01:00:18.340
And did you see that opera part of it? Yeah.

01:00:18.659 --> 01:00:21.599
Where she's singing that crazy song. It was meant

01:00:21.599 --> 01:00:25.119
to be impossible for the human range. Yeah, there's.

01:00:25.300 --> 01:00:29.820
A woman is actually. Yes. Can do it, has done

01:00:29.820 --> 01:00:31.820
it. I saw the video the other day. I was like,

01:00:31.860 --> 01:00:36.949
holy shit. It's sensational. Yeah. It was. I

01:00:36.949 --> 01:00:38.789
love that movie, man. It's funny you say that.

01:00:38.889 --> 01:00:42.710
Such a good movie. It looks so bright and poppy

01:00:42.710 --> 01:00:46.090
where, you know, a lot of sci -fis tend to be

01:00:46.090 --> 01:00:48.670
kind of grimy and muted tones and stuff like

01:00:48.670 --> 01:00:54.170
that. Yeah. And I like that the main character,

01:00:54.329 --> 01:00:57.489
Bruce Willis' character, Dallas Corbin. Corbin

01:00:57.489 --> 01:01:01.949
Dallas Maltipass. He was a taxi driver because

01:01:01.949 --> 01:01:05.130
the director's father. Took a second job as a

01:01:05.130 --> 01:01:07.570
taxi driver to put him through art school. Fair

01:01:07.570 --> 01:01:09.170
dinkum. Yeah, so that's why he kind of made a

01:01:09.170 --> 01:01:10.650
hero. Did not even know that. Yeah, taxi driver,

01:01:10.829 --> 01:01:12.750
which is pretty cool. That's fucking pretty cool.

01:01:12.849 --> 01:01:16.329
But then, yeah, the alien practical effects that

01:01:16.329 --> 01:01:19.670
they used in it, the shapeshifting dudes, yeah,

01:01:19.769 --> 01:01:24.190
and just the guns are ridiculously large. There's

01:01:24.190 --> 01:01:30.010
actually a bloke who's making the ZX -1, the

01:01:30.010 --> 01:01:32.469
multi -shooter. There's a bloke who actually

01:01:32.469 --> 01:01:36.389
makes. like transforming models of it. Hell,

01:01:36.409 --> 01:01:38.550
yeah. That's cool as fuck. Like he's on all the

01:01:38.550 --> 01:01:41.030
– well, I'm not on the Facebook anymore, but

01:01:41.030 --> 01:01:42.590
he was actually in a lot of the 3D modelling

01:01:42.590 --> 01:01:45.070
pages. Yeah. And he was selling them for like

01:01:45.070 --> 01:01:47.809
$650 each. But they were all painted up. They

01:01:47.809 --> 01:01:49.590
had all the surveys in it so they'd transform

01:01:49.590 --> 01:01:52.670
and stuff. It was good. Hell, yeah. Even just

01:01:52.670 --> 01:01:56.230
the set designs in that movie, especially a lot

01:01:56.230 --> 01:01:59.619
of the rooms would have that compartments. that

01:01:59.619 --> 01:02:02.320
would fold out to be Kitchens Bears and like

01:02:02.320 --> 01:02:07.340
in that transport where Chris Tucker's character

01:02:07.340 --> 01:02:10.539
and that lady have sex and just, yeah. Hidden

01:02:10.539 --> 01:02:16.460
coming, Rudy. Yeah. Yeah, it looks awesome. Yeah,

01:02:16.460 --> 01:02:19.780
I dug it. I thought it was a really good movie

01:02:19.780 --> 01:02:26.239
and it still holds up. Again, the music of it.

01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:33.539
Yeah. French -Cuban sort of sound. They used

01:02:33.539 --> 01:02:38.099
it in Oceans 11 and 12 as well. But I love that.

01:02:38.179 --> 01:02:40.559
Like when he's cruising through the city in his

01:02:40.559 --> 01:02:43.760
taxi and there's that real poppy song. I dug

01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:45.619
it, man. It was a complete movie. I liked it.

01:02:46.219 --> 01:02:50.300
It's definitely rewatchable for sure. So rewatchable.

01:02:51.139 --> 01:02:54.940
As opposed to probably Arrival, I don't think

01:02:54.940 --> 01:02:57.719
you would rewatch that as much as you would rewatch.

01:02:58.329 --> 01:03:02.090
Fifth Element. Look, as good as it is, you're

01:03:02.090 --> 01:03:07.730
right, it is. When you watch it that first time,

01:03:07.769 --> 01:03:13.190
you're like, what the shit? Yeah. You re -watch

01:03:13.190 --> 01:03:15.849
it again and you sort of pick more up. Yeah.

01:03:16.329 --> 01:03:19.489
But, yeah, it's not something. Like Ready Player

01:03:19.489 --> 01:03:23.130
One, I could watch it. I used to watch it every

01:03:23.130 --> 01:03:26.429
day in the old shoebox down the road. I fucking

01:03:26.429 --> 01:03:37.820
hated it. What the bleep? How? Listen, I think

01:03:37.820 --> 01:03:42.500
it had to do with they cut out a lot of the way

01:03:42.500 --> 01:03:47.619
he went about to collect those keys. I had a

01:03:47.619 --> 01:03:50.059
similar conversation with Jack up in the shop

01:03:50.059 --> 01:03:51.659
today because we watched it today. Oh, yeah.

01:03:53.000 --> 01:03:56.760
That could be an Amazon series. You could make

01:03:56.760 --> 01:04:01.760
12 episodes of show. Because each key has three

01:04:01.760 --> 01:04:06.360
challenges. Yep. So you got all that set up and

01:04:06.360 --> 01:04:09.139
weaving for those three challenges. Yep. In the

01:04:09.139 --> 01:04:12.320
movie, they cut it down to three keys. Yep. So

01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:15.880
they cut way out of it. And, like, while it looked

01:04:15.880 --> 01:04:19.800
fantastic, I think they had the opportunity to

01:04:19.800 --> 01:04:25.260
– in the book, it felt like a lot of the scenes

01:04:25.260 --> 01:04:32.099
took on the feel of the – that was meant to be

01:04:32.099 --> 01:04:35.260
idolising. Like the entire book idolised the

01:04:35.260 --> 01:04:40.079
80s. It did not feel like that at all. Like it

01:04:40.079 --> 01:04:44.039
could have had like boppy tunes like out of all

01:04:44.039 --> 01:04:46.679
the needle drops out of Guardians of the Galaxy.

01:04:47.079 --> 01:04:49.599
Like it did have some, you know, it opened with

01:04:49.599 --> 01:04:52.699
Jump by Van Halen. So it had some needle drops

01:04:52.699 --> 01:04:57.010
through it. But you're right, it was more. It

01:04:57.010 --> 01:04:59.349
was more of a place there to appease the book

01:04:59.349 --> 01:05:01.869
instead of actually being part of the film. There

01:05:01.869 --> 01:05:04.869
was no dusty arcades. No, no. Hidden in the back

01:05:04.869 --> 01:05:06.829
of a dusty arcade. Like, that could have been

01:05:06.829 --> 01:05:11.849
cool as fuck. They ruined the H reveal. Yes.

01:05:12.030 --> 01:05:17.809
They kept, like, Daito alive. Yeah. You never

01:05:17.809 --> 01:05:21.150
saw Daito and Shaito in person. Yeah, you did.

01:05:21.269 --> 01:05:25.210
In the movie, yeah. In the book. Yeah, no, you

01:05:25.210 --> 01:05:30.590
did. So Shoto shows up. After. Towards the end.

01:05:30.610 --> 01:05:33.289
His brother's death. No, it is his brother in

01:05:33.289 --> 01:05:38.090
the book. So shows up after Daito was thrown

01:05:38.090 --> 01:05:41.269
out of the window and he rocks up and he's like.

01:05:41.449 --> 01:05:44.449
No, they weren't brothers. They weren't brothers.

01:05:44.690 --> 01:05:46.369
They weren't brothers? Brothers in the movie.

01:05:46.809 --> 01:05:48.170
Yeah, I think in the movie they were brothers.

01:05:48.230 --> 01:05:52.630
That's right. When Ogden Morrow collects all

01:05:52.630 --> 01:05:55.170
the kids together and takes them to his. He's

01:05:55.170 --> 01:05:57.690
compound. That's when he picks up show and he's

01:05:57.690 --> 01:05:59.550
like, and they're like, where's Daito? And he's

01:05:59.550 --> 01:06:03.550
like. They got to him. I was actually in a chat

01:06:03.550 --> 01:06:05.670
with him. I was in a Discord chat with him while

01:06:05.670 --> 01:06:09.530
this, while he was thrown out a window. And then

01:06:09.530 --> 01:06:13.769
there's the news footage of Daito's death. I've

01:06:13.769 --> 01:06:16.250
only watched the movie once. I can't remember.

01:06:16.369 --> 01:06:20.250
Do they do the whole him in jail in the movie?

01:06:20.349 --> 01:06:25.960
No, they don't do that either. They do. So Samantha

01:06:25.960 --> 01:06:33.079
gets put in the loyalty centre. It's not. Right.

01:06:33.440 --> 01:06:37.760
It isn't Wade. Yeah. So Samantha's locked in

01:06:37.760 --> 01:06:39.440
the loyalty centre and they break her out. It's

01:06:39.440 --> 01:06:44.599
not Wade in there. I agree. The movie's good

01:06:44.599 --> 01:06:48.639
if you haven't read the book, but when you watch

01:06:48.639 --> 01:06:51.920
the movie after reading the book, you want so

01:06:51.920 --> 01:06:57.260
much more. They left so much out. Like how he

01:06:57.260 --> 01:07:01.079
got the extra life. It was a bet with the library

01:07:01.079 --> 01:07:05.679
in the movie. In the book, he actually went to

01:07:05.679 --> 01:07:08.860
a different planet and he had to beat Pac -Man

01:07:08.860 --> 01:07:14.239
to get the extra life. And it was in a backwoods

01:07:14.239 --> 01:07:17.500
arcade. Yeah, dusty old arcade in the back of

01:07:17.500 --> 01:07:21.739
nowhere. They mentioned Lutist once and they're

01:07:21.739 --> 01:07:25.019
like, he spends. a quarter of the first book

01:07:25.019 --> 01:07:30.980
on Ludus. Yep. And so that whole first Dungeons

01:07:30.980 --> 01:07:33.920
and Dragons campaign, like not campaign, setting.

01:07:34.139 --> 01:07:38.699
Yeah. With the cave that doesn't happen. Exactly

01:07:38.699 --> 01:07:41.579
right. Him finding the guitar and the whole rush

01:07:41.579 --> 01:07:45.380
sequence doesn't happen. Yep. Like, I mean, I

01:07:45.380 --> 01:07:47.920
can understand they probably weren't able to

01:07:47.920 --> 01:07:52.159
get a lot of the approvals for some things. See,

01:07:52.219 --> 01:07:55.650
this is. This is where I run into that licensing

01:07:55.650 --> 01:08:00.789
issue, right? Does he have to purchase licensing

01:08:00.789 --> 01:08:04.510
for the book or can that just be because it's

01:08:04.510 --> 01:08:07.070
a written word? Written word. I believe that

01:08:07.070 --> 01:08:09.449
he doesn't think he has to have any. Because

01:08:09.449 --> 01:08:11.750
there was no actual intellectual property and

01:08:11.750 --> 01:08:14.070
it was just mentioning those people. Right, okay.

01:08:15.309 --> 01:08:18.869
Now, Steven Spielberg comes to you and goes,

01:08:19.010 --> 01:08:24.359
I'm making this film. In the book, you'll mention

01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:28.140
in it, I want to, in the second book, there's

01:08:28.140 --> 01:08:36.680
a fight with Prince. Prince, very back in the

01:08:36.680 --> 01:08:39.260
day, would not let people use his songs in movies.

01:08:39.420 --> 01:08:43.340
Batman was only done because he said, I'll write

01:08:43.340 --> 01:08:52.189
original music for it. You shouldn't do movies

01:08:52.189 --> 01:08:55.350
like this that are so heavy in nostalgia, so

01:08:55.350 --> 01:08:59.569
heavy in needle drops, so heavy in nostalgia

01:08:59.569 --> 01:09:03.949
and not bring it in because that's what it was

01:09:03.949 --> 01:09:06.310
catering for. The whole story was, oh, mate,

01:09:06.350 --> 01:09:10.109
love nostalgia, love the 80s. I think the movie,

01:09:10.229 --> 01:09:13.430
or if they made a show, should feel a lot like

01:09:13.430 --> 01:09:16.909
Stranger Things, at least in that first season

01:09:16.909 --> 01:09:22.279
of Stranger Things, kind of had that retro. had

01:09:22.279 --> 01:09:25.920
all the needle drops, that kind of aesthetic

01:09:25.920 --> 01:09:30.460
where I think the movie was just too polished.

01:09:30.880 --> 01:09:33.960
I think you're right to a certain extent. Like

01:09:33.960 --> 01:09:36.680
when they're actually in the Oasis and because

01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:39.159
they all love the nostalgia, you just stay in

01:09:39.159 --> 01:09:41.640
areas of the game that was just nostalgia, would

01:09:41.640 --> 01:09:44.479
you not? Yeah. There was none of that. Like wasn't

01:09:44.479 --> 01:09:47.939
his headquarters or his chat room the basement

01:09:47.939 --> 01:09:51.619
of a house? Yeah. With an arcade machine in the

01:09:51.619 --> 01:09:54.140
corner. And IROC, he used to have all his mates

01:09:54.140 --> 01:09:55.680
over and IROC used to come down there and he

01:09:55.680 --> 01:09:59.779
was a little dweeby prick. And then even he had

01:09:59.779 --> 01:10:03.720
his own planet that he'd go to and he'd go there

01:10:03.720 --> 01:10:06.100
all the time in the DeLorean. You see the DeLorean

01:10:06.100 --> 01:10:13.180
twice. Yeah, yeah. There's no, oh, I need to

01:10:13.180 --> 01:10:15.460
earn money and I'm broke to get to this part

01:10:15.460 --> 01:10:17.180
of the game. There was none of that. It was just

01:10:17.180 --> 01:10:19.670
like, let's go there. Yeah, it didn't seem to

01:10:19.670 --> 01:10:24.550
have any kind of urgency to the movie. No. I

01:10:24.550 --> 01:10:26.930
do agree with you in that aspect. And then I

01:10:26.930 --> 01:10:29.369
said that to Jack Tadam, like it needed to be,

01:10:29.470 --> 01:10:33.869
it needed to get that television, how we were

01:10:33.869 --> 01:10:36.409
talking last week about the long service television

01:10:36.409 --> 01:10:42.010
shows, it needed to be that. Yeah. And I'm not

01:10:42.010 --> 01:10:44.170
saying, well, it might happen in the future,

01:10:44.229 --> 01:10:48.579
we don't know. But yeah, it needed it. I think

01:10:48.579 --> 01:10:54.279
it was oversaturated too. Like there's that many

01:10:54.279 --> 01:10:56.739
kind of Easter eggs in it that you'd have to

01:10:56.739 --> 01:10:58.579
go back and watch it a hundred times, pause the

01:10:58.579 --> 01:11:01.039
frames and check everything. It didn't necessarily

01:11:01.039 --> 01:11:04.659
need that. No. People's avatars just could have

01:11:04.659 --> 01:11:07.260
been weird and mucky avatars and they could have

01:11:07.260 --> 01:11:11.390
dropped in this IP. and even just use one of

01:11:11.390 --> 01:11:13.369
their toys or something like that in the background.

01:11:13.729 --> 01:11:16.289
Dude, when he's walking through the introduction,

01:11:16.609 --> 01:11:19.449
you see Battletoads, you see Master Chief, you

01:11:19.449 --> 01:11:22.430
see the Ninja Turtles, you see Robocop, you see

01:11:22.430 --> 01:11:25.949
Chewbacca, you see all these things. Why? Yeah,

01:11:26.029 --> 01:11:29.329
they're all from different kind of years and

01:11:29.329 --> 01:11:31.729
everything anyway. You didn't need, you could

01:11:31.729 --> 01:11:34.149
have just had like a peppering of one. Like in

01:11:34.149 --> 01:11:38.550
the next one, Goro's there and just so much.

01:11:40.490 --> 01:11:43.369
Yeah, okay, you're trying to cater to the people

01:11:43.369 --> 01:11:49.170
who have done all this stuff. Yeah. But I think

01:11:49.170 --> 01:11:53.590
if it was more like you see these things, but

01:11:53.590 --> 01:11:56.729
now you see them going, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

01:11:57.710 --> 01:11:59.689
So I was just like, oh, we've got to have all

01:11:59.689 --> 01:12:01.409
these things in there to make sure people tick,

01:12:01.470 --> 01:12:03.270
tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. But they weren't.

01:12:03.750 --> 01:12:06.489
Yeah, I agree with you 100%. Yeah, I was thoroughly

01:12:06.489 --> 01:12:09.319
disappointed by that. Unfortunately. I wanted

01:12:09.319 --> 01:12:12.300
to like it. Yeah. I loved the movie, but then

01:12:12.300 --> 01:12:15.479
I read the book after I watched the movie. And

01:12:15.479 --> 01:12:20.399
I loved the book. Yeah. Like I've re -listened

01:12:20.399 --> 01:12:25.859
to that book no less than 25 times. Yeah. Easy.

01:12:26.079 --> 01:12:29.460
Yeah. I think we might wrap it up there. Sounds

01:12:29.460 --> 01:12:34.260
wrapped. Mm -hmm. Anything you want to say to

01:12:34.260 --> 01:12:36.079
the people that might be watching, listening?

01:12:37.030 --> 01:12:39.229
Comment, dudes. Comment. We want to hear what

01:12:39.229 --> 01:12:42.869
you've got to say, even if you just skip all

01:12:42.869 --> 01:12:46.510
the way to the end at the comment section. Go

01:12:46.510 --> 01:12:51.489
for it. Yeah. Any comments is always welcome.

01:12:52.369 --> 01:12:55.270
Anything we can do better or that would be more

01:12:55.270 --> 01:12:56.850
streamlined, go for it. Yeah, we look forward

01:12:56.850 --> 01:13:00.109
to hearing from you and hope to see you again

01:13:00.109 --> 01:13:04.069
next week. Love, peace, and chicken grease. Sounds

01:13:04.069 --> 01:13:04.229
good.
