WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.059
Take two. From the dungeons of Morningstar, I'm

00:00:04.059 --> 00:00:07.660
Clint. And I'm Stretch. And this is Prevailing

00:00:07.660 --> 00:00:23.000
Strange. So I'm going to start off by saying

00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:27.239
we're terrible podcast hosts at the best of times.

00:00:30.019 --> 00:00:32.600
We start talking about stuff outside of this.

00:00:32.740 --> 00:00:36.740
Yeah. So it's sort of cutting our conversations.

00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:39.759
Well, I mean, I think we can still talk out our

00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:42.100
ass. I think we can. Well, I can. Well, you can.

00:00:42.140 --> 00:00:45.460
I can keep up the slack. First this week, what

00:00:45.460 --> 00:00:46.780
do you want to touch on? Where do you want to

00:00:46.780 --> 00:00:50.340
start? We'll start with our week in review. Sounds

00:00:50.340 --> 00:00:55.759
good. Episode five of Daredevil. Okay. Kick that

00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:58.740
off first. Yes, sir. I don't think you were a

00:00:58.740 --> 00:01:01.340
fan, were you? No. Which is funny because I was

00:01:01.340 --> 00:01:04.379
a fan. I have this, I run into this with a lot

00:01:04.379 --> 00:01:10.299
of shows, the side quests. Yep. I don't think

00:01:10.299 --> 00:01:15.299
this needed to be there. Right, right. For the

00:01:15.299 --> 00:01:19.980
specific reason, he meets, he's going to the

00:01:19.980 --> 00:01:23.920
bank and he talks to this bank manager who's

00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:26.959
got the tag on it, says Khan on it, and you've

00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.359
seen, The Marvels. Well, if you're a Marvel fan,

00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:34.620
you've seen the Marvels. Yep. So, you know, he's

00:01:34.620 --> 00:01:39.000
Kamala Khan's dad. Miss Marvel. So, the fact

00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:41.540
that he sits there and starts talking to a stranger

00:01:41.540 --> 00:01:44.659
about his daughter and answering text messages

00:01:44.659 --> 00:01:47.079
whilst always trying to say, I need some money

00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:51.000
to keep my business afloat. Yeah. You don't talk

00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.159
to, you don't answer text messages in a meeting

00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:57.180
to start. No, it was a bit ham -fisted. And he's

00:01:57.180 --> 00:01:59.799
like, oh, my daughter, Kamala Khan, and we have

00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:01.819
our own superhero, Ms. Marvel. Oh, you know Ms.

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:08.060
Marvel. Come on. You're from New York. He's from

00:02:08.060 --> 00:02:10.439
New York. He's heard of Kamala Khan. He hasn't

00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:12.080
heard of Kamala Khan, but he's heard of Ms. Marvel,

00:02:12.219 --> 00:02:14.620
all right, because that was all over the news.

00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:18.080
We assume, yeah. Well, she's got her own Funko

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:20.180
Pop, so of course she's been on the news. Yeah,

00:02:20.259 --> 00:02:25.080
true. But, I mean. I know he's blind. But he

00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:27.099
can still read it with Braille or he can hear

00:02:27.099 --> 00:02:30.819
about it on the – it was just ham -fisted. It

00:02:30.819 --> 00:02:33.259
was like, oh, here's some fucking exposition.

00:02:33.259 --> 00:02:35.639
Let me feed your face with it. It's like it didn't

00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:37.900
need to. So, yeah, I didn't like it. I don't

00:02:37.900 --> 00:02:41.099
like side quest episodes. It's funny because

00:02:41.099 --> 00:02:44.159
I felt like it's been the closest to the original

00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:49.039
Daredevil series thus far in terms of tone and

00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:51.449
the way it kind of felt. We didn't have those

00:02:51.449 --> 00:02:55.169
BB kind of extracts. It's still taking me out

00:02:55.169 --> 00:02:57.090
of it. And I've looked closer at those, and they

00:02:57.090 --> 00:02:59.509
are grainier, but it's still taking me out, dude.

00:02:59.550 --> 00:03:02.270
I don't want to see that shit. I don't care.

00:03:02.669 --> 00:03:04.629
So, yeah, we had that full episode without one

00:03:04.629 --> 00:03:07.550
of those. But without Fail, we've had two in

00:03:07.550 --> 00:03:10.229
every other episode. Yes. So, interesting, this

00:03:10.229 --> 00:03:14.250
episode was the only episode they did not reshoot,

00:03:14.330 --> 00:03:17.810
retouch, or do anything with from the first lot

00:03:17.810 --> 00:03:21.270
of shoots back in 23. Right. where apparently

00:03:21.270 --> 00:03:24.409
every other episode has been reshot or restructured

00:03:24.409 --> 00:03:27.250
or reframed. Yeah, right. I didn't know that.

00:03:27.389 --> 00:03:29.169
Yeah, that's why it's taken so long to cut me

00:03:29.169 --> 00:03:33.250
out. Well, yeah, I honestly, I just kept headbutting

00:03:33.250 --> 00:03:37.889
into that. I'm like, were them bank robbers anyone

00:03:37.889 --> 00:03:41.349
in particular? Are they, like we know we've got.

00:03:41.830 --> 00:03:43.789
Nobody that I know of, but that doesn't mean

00:03:43.789 --> 00:03:46.129
they don't tie back to. Yeah, well, you know,

00:03:46.169 --> 00:03:48.270
you got in like DC, you've got the suit gang.

00:03:48.909 --> 00:03:51.560
I was sort of thinking. I'm running into that.

00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.819
They all had their own singular colour. Yeah.

00:03:55.379 --> 00:03:58.360
And I'm like, I kept thinking that. I kept waiting

00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:00.240
for Batman to show up and kick him out the door.

00:04:00.300 --> 00:04:02.659
You know what I'm saying? Yeah. But I don't know.

00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.580
That episode, it was a very – my favourite bit

00:04:06.580 --> 00:04:08.580
was where he smashed old mate's head into the

00:04:08.580 --> 00:04:12.939
wall. It was brutal. When he broke his leg. Yeah,

00:04:13.020 --> 00:04:14.979
and he just puts that fucking balaclava on. He

00:04:14.979 --> 00:04:17.959
just jumps. Oh, yeah. It was quite ironic that

00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:19.459
it just happened to be the red balaclava too.

00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:25.160
Yeah. Pretty good. What they were after, the

00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:29.399
gem. Yeah. Was that just a nod to the Infinity

00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:33.040
Stone, the soul gem? Was that the soul gem that's

00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.439
been cut since it was? Nobody. Well, that's the

00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:40.920
thing. The soul gem is like a little teardrop

00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:42.759
shape in Vision's head, but. No, no, no, no.

00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.000
That's the mind gem. The mind gem. The soul gem.

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:46.720
The soul one was at the top. Is the one that

00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:50.519
Grimoire. Died for. Yeah, yeah. The one that

00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:54.939
Black Widow died for. But it was uncut. It was.

00:04:54.939 --> 00:04:58.199
It was in the back of the gourd. Yeah. Big, chunky.

00:04:58.220 --> 00:05:00.300
It was the biggest one. Yeah. And it looked,

00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.420
it was cut. It was like a rectangle shape when

00:05:03.420 --> 00:05:05.720
he pulled it out of the candy. It was a rectangle.

00:05:05.740 --> 00:05:08.420
He held it up. That's what I mean. This is a

00:05:08.420 --> 00:05:12.060
cut gem now. Yeah. Is it the Infinity Stone that's

00:05:12.060 --> 00:05:14.199
been cut? Because it would have been the only

00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:17.060
one that he would not have been able to return.

00:05:18.770 --> 00:05:23.410
because of the nature in which they were to gain

00:05:23.410 --> 00:05:26.529
the stone was to give up a life on Vormir, the

00:05:26.529 --> 00:05:28.910
planet in the middle of the universe. Yeah, but

00:05:28.910 --> 00:05:31.990
to get the stone, do you have to give a soul?

00:05:33.029 --> 00:05:35.970
And to give it back, to place it, do you have

00:05:35.970 --> 00:05:37.750
to give a soul as well? Because that would be

00:05:37.750 --> 00:05:41.529
counterintuitive. Yeah. I'd imagine that. But

00:05:41.529 --> 00:05:45.870
why would Cap take them all back? But, dude,

00:05:45.990 --> 00:05:48.470
you've stretched me brain with that. Yeah. I

00:05:48.470 --> 00:05:52.149
like that. I wish, I hope it is. He time travelled

00:05:52.149 --> 00:05:57.029
back in time to places to, he didn't have space

00:05:57.029 --> 00:05:59.589
travel, didn't have access to space travel when

00:05:59.589 --> 00:06:03.089
he went back. Dude, you're 100 % right. Where

00:06:03.089 --> 00:06:07.589
did he get the soul stone from in time, in Endgame?

00:06:07.649 --> 00:06:10.110
Where did he get it from? In Endgame it was.

00:06:10.389 --> 00:06:12.529
Thanos had it at the start. Thanos had it at

00:06:12.529 --> 00:06:15.069
the start, yeah. And then it was Black Widow

00:06:15.069 --> 00:06:20.009
and Hawkeye. Hawkeye. And had taken a spaceship

00:06:20.009 --> 00:06:22.970
from Rocket. Yeah, to go to Vormir. Go to Vormir,

00:06:23.069 --> 00:06:25.410
yeah. Yeah, Cap couldn't have returned that even

00:06:25.410 --> 00:06:29.389
if he wanted to. I don't think so, yeah. So it's

00:06:29.389 --> 00:06:32.430
been potentially locked away on Earth since 40

00:06:32.430 --> 00:06:36.569
-whatever when he disappeared, 45. Do you reckon

00:06:36.569 --> 00:06:38.689
that's why they shoehorned that episode in there?

00:06:38.810 --> 00:06:40.949
If they're going to go, oh, here's a soul stone

00:06:40.949 --> 00:06:44.470
and we're going to bring in Ms. Marvel because

00:06:44.470 --> 00:06:48.100
they haven't mentioned her since. Yeah, well,

00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:54.040
I mean, anything's possible. Yeah. It could be

00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:58.420
a way to contact Foggy, bring Foggy back. Oh,

00:06:58.420 --> 00:07:02.360
you fucking evil man. I'm just spitballing. I

00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:04.000
really hope they don't bring him back because

00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:08.860
that would cheapen it. Well, funny you say that.

00:07:08.939 --> 00:07:10.139
We're going to talk about something later on.

00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:15.149
But that's, if that. That's made me look at Episode

00:07:15.149 --> 00:07:20.649
5 with fresher eyes. Yeah. Again, I didn't like

00:07:20.649 --> 00:07:24.110
it at the start, but you might have to go re

00:07:24.110 --> 00:07:26.829
-watch that. Yeah. As soon as I saw it, I'm like,

00:07:26.889 --> 00:07:29.370
well, that's an interesting coloured gem. It's

00:07:29.370 --> 00:07:32.689
about the right size for it. It is. But who did

00:07:32.689 --> 00:07:34.889
they say they were getting that for? The boss.

00:07:35.069 --> 00:07:38.310
They didn't mention anyone. I'm guessing you're

00:07:38.310 --> 00:07:43.980
meant to assume it's for Fisk. Yeah. But. nothing

00:07:43.980 --> 00:07:47.339
was said about who it was for. Because I think

00:07:47.339 --> 00:07:50.040
he said a name, like the bloke who got his leg

00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:52.259
broken, when he handed it off to the lady in

00:07:52.259 --> 00:07:55.740
the bank, I thought he said, get this to blah,

00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.779
blah, blah. I just can't recall the name. But

00:07:58.779 --> 00:08:03.300
maybe it is, maybe. Oh, no, it wasn't. No, it's

00:08:03.300 --> 00:08:05.360
all right. I thought it was the Irish mob fellow

00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:08.220
that we're going to talk about later on, bridged

00:08:08.220 --> 00:08:10.879
up at Fiske in his office. And we're going to

00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:14.000
call him Fisky for the rest of the episode. Fisky

00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:18.579
boy. Yeah, well, they were all Irish. Were they

00:08:18.579 --> 00:08:23.980
part of his mob? Maybe. Yeah. Maybe. Time will

00:08:23.980 --> 00:08:26.879
tell. Yes. We're jumping ahead. But it's fun

00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.259
to speculate. Yeah, definitely. As a standalone

00:08:30.259 --> 00:08:33.679
episode, I did enjoy it. Right. It didn't, like

00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:35.820
you said, it didn't really kind of progress the

00:08:35.820 --> 00:08:38.980
plot anything in any way. That's, yeah, the whole

00:08:38.980 --> 00:08:43.740
side quest of it all. But, yeah, I didn't like

00:08:43.740 --> 00:08:49.100
how they just shoved Kamala Khan in there. And

00:08:49.100 --> 00:08:52.980
there's more elegant ways of introducing her

00:08:52.980 --> 00:08:55.960
into this series if you're going to. Yeah. They're

00:08:55.960 --> 00:09:00.519
all in New York. I did like the punchline, what

00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:03.700
kind of lawyer are you? Yeah. A really good one.

00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:05.980
Yeah. Or was that the Spider -Man quote? No,

00:09:05.980 --> 00:09:09.659
no, no. Yeah. That was in episode five. Yeah,

00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.019
because he said a very similar line in Spider

00:09:13.019 --> 00:09:15.679
-Man No Way Home. Yeah, when he catches the brick.

00:09:15.899 --> 00:09:22.080
Yeah, pretty cool little call back there. Episode

00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:25.360
five was pretty self -contained. Episode six,

00:09:25.419 --> 00:09:27.820
though, which they released them back -to -back.

00:09:27.879 --> 00:09:30.000
That was interesting. Because they knew episode

00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:32.860
five was going to be shit. But, dude, episode

00:09:32.860 --> 00:09:37.450
six brought the fucking pain. Mm -hmm. We got

00:09:37.450 --> 00:09:41.409
to see a whole lot more of Muse. I like that

00:09:41.409 --> 00:09:46.710
his graffiti isn't just red. I love that he's

00:09:46.710 --> 00:09:50.389
blending the blood with pigment and colour to

00:09:50.389 --> 00:09:54.210
make his artwork. I love that he's covering over

00:09:54.210 --> 00:09:56.090
it with epoxy too so he can't fucking wash it

00:09:56.090 --> 00:10:03.870
off. His mask, I fucking love it. It's very homemade.

00:10:05.950 --> 00:10:09.090
I love the silver staples. Yeah. I love the blood

00:10:09.090 --> 00:10:11.830
from his eyes. Dude, I'm just all there. I'm

00:10:11.830 --> 00:10:13.990
all in. Very cool. Very edgy type of character.

00:10:15.049 --> 00:10:18.590
The first time you see him in his graffiti, the

00:10:18.590 --> 00:10:20.590
two chicks were, hey, are you a muse? Can we

00:10:20.590 --> 00:10:23.509
get a photo? And he's like, yeah, all right,

00:10:23.549 --> 00:10:27.629
I'll give you a photo. And then he released the

00:10:27.629 --> 00:10:33.470
photo. I was glad to see Angela in it again.

00:10:34.070 --> 00:10:37.350
I want to see more of, like you said, she progresses

00:10:37.350 --> 00:10:40.690
into being the White Tiger. If she does. Yeah.

00:10:40.750 --> 00:10:43.049
Yeah. It'd be good. Like giving her that backstory

00:10:43.049 --> 00:10:45.750
and why she wants to be against all this evil

00:10:45.750 --> 00:10:50.730
shit. Yeah. I like it. I did like that they kind

00:10:50.730 --> 00:10:54.070
of tied White Tiger to Muse because it wasn't

00:10:54.070 --> 00:10:57.830
really evident that he was tracking down a serial

00:10:57.830 --> 00:11:02.059
killer. Yes. Yes. And then Angela's come in and

00:11:02.059 --> 00:11:03.519
kind of said, you know, he thought something

00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:04.500
was going on. He was tracking down all these

00:11:04.500 --> 00:11:08.059
disappearing people. Yeah, that was cool. Really

00:11:08.059 --> 00:11:11.220
cool. That motivation for Matt to finally put

00:11:11.220 --> 00:11:18.700
on the cowl again. Some of my favourite in this

00:11:18.700 --> 00:11:23.700
series anyway, like Born Again, some of my favourite

00:11:23.700 --> 00:11:28.460
beats are in this episode. Him fighting Muse.

00:11:29.019 --> 00:11:32.559
And seeing how fast and powerful Muse is, tick.

00:11:34.899 --> 00:11:38.899
And then seeing how he just lets the devil out

00:11:38.899 --> 00:11:40.740
and he's just screaming at the top of his lungs

00:11:40.740 --> 00:11:42.860
after he's beaten the snot out of this bloke.

00:11:42.980 --> 00:11:45.259
It did seem like a very cathartic thing for him.

00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:49.179
Oh, dude, yeah. And the way it paralleled. Fisk.

00:11:49.299 --> 00:11:51.879
Fisk. Going back and forth between the two and

00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.419
just seeing him fucking, yeah. When he brought

00:11:54.419 --> 00:11:56.159
the axe in, I'm like, oh, he's going to chop

00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:58.700
these kind of pieces. And he's like. Here's your

00:11:58.700 --> 00:12:04.100
tool. And I'm like, oh, let's go. There seemed

00:12:04.100 --> 00:12:07.460
to be a very kind of, like I said, cathartic

00:12:07.460 --> 00:12:16.220
expression through. I kind of interpreted Matt

00:12:16.220 --> 00:12:19.419
as a bit of a pain that he was going through.

00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:22.240
He kind of. Real conflicted. Really conflicted.

00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.019
Yeah. Doesn't want to do this. We've seen him

00:12:25.019 --> 00:12:28.639
praying a fair bit in this one. Yeah. But he's

00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:32.980
doing it because it needs to be done. Yeah. And

00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:36.220
then you see Fisk, on the other hand, seem to

00:12:36.220 --> 00:12:39.899
revel in it. Yeah. He seemed quite pleased at

00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:44.639
the end of the whole process. And just like it's

00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:48.580
little touches like to show his power and show

00:12:48.580 --> 00:12:53.100
that how just much of a badass Wilson Fisk is,

00:12:53.259 --> 00:12:58.149
how fast he is. Yeah. So fast. And then just

00:12:58.149 --> 00:12:59.870
the way he drags Adam into the cell and just

00:12:59.870 --> 00:13:02.230
fucking tosses him like that and it's like you

00:13:02.230 --> 00:13:04.289
can still see the power in this man. He's a strong

00:13:04.289 --> 00:13:07.269
man. And then when he's putting on that jacket,

00:13:07.389 --> 00:13:09.629
the black jacket, and it rips and there's just

00:13:09.629 --> 00:13:11.850
a white shirt under it, it's like, oh, it's going

00:13:11.850 --> 00:13:14.269
to come out. Yeah, that's it. I think there's

00:13:14.269 --> 00:13:16.250
going to be a progression where, because he looks

00:13:16.250 --> 00:13:21.210
quite small compared to what he has in past incarnations.

00:13:22.470 --> 00:13:24.509
Incarnations, thank you. You're welcome. Yeah,

00:13:24.549 --> 00:13:27.870
I think he's going to progressively grow in size

00:13:27.870 --> 00:13:31.950
as he kind of takes on that kingpin demeanour

00:13:31.950 --> 00:13:35.629
kind of persona again. Well, like even Vanessa

00:13:35.629 --> 00:13:37.730
says, this jacket doesn't fit you. And I'm like,

00:13:37.809 --> 00:13:39.950
no, it doesn't. Give him his fucking white suit

00:13:39.950 --> 00:13:44.470
back. That fits so well. And I just can't wait

00:13:44.470 --> 00:13:46.710
the day where he just walks out of the shadows

00:13:46.710 --> 00:13:48.990
and he's wearing that white suit and just beats

00:13:48.990 --> 00:13:53.799
the bricks off some prick. Yeah, I was. Very

00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:56.539
happy with that episode and the way all of a

00:13:56.539 --> 00:13:58.980
sudden, yes, we've got the suit back again. Whether

00:13:58.980 --> 00:14:01.899
he doesn't don it for another little while or

00:14:01.899 --> 00:14:04.100
whether that's it, he's dipped his toe in, he's

00:14:04.100 --> 00:14:07.759
in it for good now. Well, there's another new

00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.059
suit. I did see different colours. Did you see

00:14:13.059 --> 00:14:16.000
the black one? Yeah. And it's got the DD on it.

00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.539
And the silver one. Yes. It'll be interesting

00:14:20.539 --> 00:14:24.159
to see. Whether they're nods to his past, because

00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:28.019
it's been seven years. Yeah. Since the last series.

00:14:28.460 --> 00:14:31.580
Whether they're just nods to arcs that he's had

00:14:31.580 --> 00:14:34.919
in the past because he wasn't standing idly by.

00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:39.620
I don't care. Like, I just don't want to go back

00:14:39.620 --> 00:14:42.340
to the Black Ninja suit. Like, I know that's

00:14:42.340 --> 00:14:45.279
where he started and it was very street level

00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:54.220
and stuff like that. But it's just. I don't connect

00:14:54.220 --> 00:14:57.080
that with Daredevil. I connect the yellow suit

00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:59.919
with Daredevil more than I do the ninja suit.

00:15:01.059 --> 00:15:05.399
And I know, you know, going back with the hand

00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:07.820
and all that sort of stuff, that's where he initially

00:15:07.820 --> 00:15:10.159
was taught all of his, you know, martial arts

00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:13.379
training in that. And Stick teaching him all

00:15:13.379 --> 00:15:16.460
that he shit. And I know it's like an homage

00:15:16.460 --> 00:15:18.940
to that, but I just don't, I'd be glad never

00:15:18.940 --> 00:15:22.279
to see that again. If you've got that many suits

00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:24.659
in the lockup. Yeah, he doesn't need the other

00:15:24.659 --> 00:15:27.320
one. Tertiary tracking's in the bin, mate. We

00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:30.419
did get to see a little bit of the swordsman.

00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:34.139
Yeah. Yeah, and then he showed up again at the

00:15:34.139 --> 00:15:38.320
fundraiser. Yeah. He's a funny character. Dude,

00:15:38.539 --> 00:15:41.299
real funny. Even in, like, I thought he was a

00:15:41.299 --> 00:15:44.159
villain when I watched Hawkeye. I thought he

00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:48.379
was just a villain mobster sort of thing. In

00:15:48.379 --> 00:15:52.980
this one, it seems that he is a vigilante. Like,

00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:54.840
he helps people because there's, like, film clips

00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.740
of him taking our bad guys and shit. But he was

00:15:58.740 --> 00:16:01.299
quite – didn't take a backward step when he was

00:16:01.299 --> 00:16:03.679
talking to Fiske. No, he did not at all. Yeah.

00:16:04.620 --> 00:16:07.659
Be interesting to see what happens, whether that's

00:16:07.659 --> 00:16:10.460
it, just that nod towards the Hawkeye series

00:16:10.460 --> 00:16:13.279
or whether we'll see something else later. Well,

00:16:13.279 --> 00:16:15.399
I've never really read any book with the swordsman

00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:19.460
in it. He's a pretty – kind of old bygone character

00:16:19.460 --> 00:16:23.220
now. He was bigger back in the 60s and 70s, I

00:16:23.220 --> 00:16:25.000
think. Yeah, right. It's just one of those little

00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.320
nods. Well, I'd like to see a nod where Fisk

00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:31.480
maybe pulls his arms off. That'd be cool. Sword

00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:33.899
fight with those. Yeah. Now swing your sword,

00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:37.539
you pussy. And, yeah, just rip his arms off.

00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:43.980
That was a good sound. Thanks. Yeah. The Billy

00:16:43.980 --> 00:16:47.250
Club getting used more. All for it. Just seeing

00:16:47.250 --> 00:16:50.110
in his fight with Muse where he's like slinging

00:16:50.110 --> 00:16:52.389
it here and there and it's like using the grapple

00:16:52.389 --> 00:16:55.830
function sort of thing. Yeah. And the fact that

00:16:55.830 --> 00:17:00.309
you do see Muse's ability to circumnavigate Matt's

00:17:00.309 --> 00:17:03.509
hearing at the end when he's on the ground and

00:17:03.509 --> 00:17:05.289
then he wasn't. Yeah, it just disappeared. I

00:17:05.289 --> 00:17:07.470
like that. I don't need to be fed everything

00:17:07.470 --> 00:17:09.269
straight away. Drip feed me this. Keep Muse around

00:17:09.269 --> 00:17:11.910
because he is a good villain, dude. And if you've

00:17:11.910 --> 00:17:15.069
killed 60 people already, approximately 60 people.

00:17:15.900 --> 00:17:20.559
Yeah, so you're not slowing down. If this is

00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:24.000
the long arc and, like, it's Matt going down

00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:28.180
the road trying to find potential victims or

00:17:28.180 --> 00:17:30.579
victims of Mews and then there's this massive

00:17:30.579 --> 00:17:32.680
showdown at the end, I'm all for that if that's

00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:36.259
your season one arc. Yeah. Because there's still

00:17:36.259 --> 00:17:40.140
going to be that bigger arc with Fisk. I did

00:17:40.140 --> 00:17:43.880
read something about John Barenthal. Returning

00:17:43.880 --> 00:17:48.099
as well. So. Am I about to make some money? Am

00:17:48.099 --> 00:17:51.039
I about to make some money? I mean, yeah. I am

00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:53.299
happy that he's coming back. Oh, as you should

00:17:53.299 --> 00:17:58.099
be. Yeah. I spoke out of turn, I guess. Mm -hmm.

00:17:58.259 --> 00:18:02.039
Yeah. The young lady who played Jessica Jones

00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:06.900
has been very vocal, saying that she would be

00:18:06.900 --> 00:18:09.880
very excited to get the call up. Mm -hmm. What's

00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:11.680
her name, Rita? Kristen Rita. Kristen Rita. Mm

00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:14.509
-hmm. So she was like, oh, I'd be very excited

00:18:14.509 --> 00:18:16.069
if they call me up, I'll jump at the chance to

00:18:16.069 --> 00:18:19.549
play Jessica Jones again. Thoughts? I think she

00:18:19.549 --> 00:18:22.890
was fantastic. I loved Jessica Jones. That series

00:18:22.890 --> 00:18:26.349
was good and I'd liked her as Jessica Jones.

00:18:27.809 --> 00:18:32.690
I don't think she would have spoiled it to say

00:18:32.690 --> 00:18:35.269
that she is going to be in it. She might pop

00:18:35.269 --> 00:18:38.849
up yet. Yeah. Honestly, I could have given and

00:18:38.849 --> 00:18:42.000
taken Jessica Jones. I really liked her. Mr.

00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:45.380
Purple. Mm -hmm. He was a great villain for that

00:18:45.380 --> 00:18:50.180
series, I thought. Yeah. But, yeah, Daredevil,

00:18:50.200 --> 00:18:52.740
I hope it keeps going the way it is. I could

00:18:52.740 --> 00:18:55.859
have given or taken Episode 5. Episode 6 pulled

00:18:55.859 --> 00:19:01.319
me back in. But, yeah, I'm really excited for

00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:03.599
Episode 7 next week. Yeah, three more episodes

00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:09.019
till the end of Season 1. So we've got some things

00:19:09.019 --> 00:19:10.910
happening. At least we didn't have to wait until

00:19:10.910 --> 00:19:12.869
the end of season one to see him in the Daredevil

00:19:12.869 --> 00:19:15.329
suit like I thought we might. Yeah, you've been

00:19:15.329 --> 00:19:18.269
so wrong. Do you really want to watch this guy?

00:19:18.849 --> 00:19:24.289
I'm happy to be wrong. I just, you know. Yeah,

00:19:24.369 --> 00:19:27.069
absolutely. I've been let down before, so I was

00:19:27.069 --> 00:19:28.769
prepared to be let down. I've been hurt before.

00:19:31.690 --> 00:19:34.609
So, yeah, we can talk about Dungeon Crawler Carl.

00:19:34.970 --> 00:19:38.259
We've both been – I was a bit – I'm hesitant

00:19:38.259 --> 00:19:40.220
after that first book, so I'm like, oh, fuck.

00:19:40.700 --> 00:19:44.619
It was weird and confusing. And then I started

00:19:44.619 --> 00:19:46.059
listening to the second book, and I'm like, okay,

00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:48.519
all right, let's keep going. Old mate's voice

00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:53.099
still gets me in the crunk here. But I'm looking

00:19:53.099 --> 00:19:58.480
forward to where he's going in this whole thing

00:19:58.480 --> 00:19:59.960
because it's getting more and more exciting as

00:19:59.960 --> 00:20:01.960
he gets down the levels. Yeah, it definitely

00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:06.640
is. It's progressing quite like I expected it

00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:11.190
would. There's a very linear power grade to these

00:20:11.190 --> 00:20:16.509
types of books, but it's fun to listen to. It's

00:20:16.509 --> 00:20:19.910
definitely a very sandpit kind of feel for the

00:20:19.910 --> 00:20:23.009
authors in these kind of realms. They come up

00:20:23.009 --> 00:20:26.930
with things that will trip their characters up,

00:20:26.970 --> 00:20:31.630
but then they just happen to get this prize from

00:20:31.630 --> 00:20:34.609
a loot box, this power up somehow. That just

00:20:34.609 --> 00:20:37.170
happens to be the right thing to do. Just this

00:20:37.170 --> 00:20:39.450
constant thing. But I think that they kind of

00:20:39.450 --> 00:20:41.390
need to do that because it's released on that

00:20:41.390 --> 00:20:43.869
royal road to begin with. Yeah. They're releasing

00:20:43.869 --> 00:20:46.549
like a chapter a week. Yeah, right. Or a chapter.

00:20:46.549 --> 00:20:49.410
Oh, right. Yeah. And so that's why it has a very

00:20:49.410 --> 00:20:53.170
kind of. Episodic. Yeah, not even. It just seems

00:20:53.170 --> 00:20:55.490
to pick up where the last book left off. Right.

00:20:55.569 --> 00:20:57.430
There's no time skip or anything like that. It's

00:20:57.430 --> 00:20:59.309
just bang, straight back into the action. And

00:20:59.309 --> 00:21:01.509
that's how, that's why they're pretty easy to

00:21:01.509 --> 00:21:04.269
kind of read back to back. Yeah. And it was like

00:21:04.269 --> 00:21:06.529
that first book, I think I had a two day break.

00:21:06.890 --> 00:21:08.569
And then I'll jump straight back into it and

00:21:08.569 --> 00:21:12.829
I'll listen to it in two days. Yeah. The third,

00:21:12.950 --> 00:21:18.789
the relationship between Donut and Carl continues

00:21:18.789 --> 00:21:25.250
to charm me. Yeah. And, well, he's there, he's

00:21:25.250 --> 00:21:29.009
a manager now, but he was their guide. Mordecai.

00:21:29.569 --> 00:21:32.609
Mordecai. Yeah. Formerly the rat. Yeah, he keeps

00:21:32.609 --> 00:21:38.769
popping up. Yeah. Every level he changes. But

00:21:38.769 --> 00:21:43.970
they had that couple in the first book, the one

00:21:43.970 --> 00:21:49.829
that their kid died. She's getting powered up.

00:21:50.009 --> 00:21:52.450
And the thing when, like you said, they get loot

00:21:52.450 --> 00:21:55.650
boxes and that. The thing that I wish it was

00:21:55.650 --> 00:22:00.839
more RNG. But it's not. It's literally dictated

00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:02.839
by the directors, producers and the sponsors

00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:07.200
of the show. Yeah. I wish it was a bit more RNG

00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:12.119
because like in the chapter I just read, they

00:22:12.119 --> 00:22:17.160
held back after that big cataclysm bomb, they

00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:22.380
held back an elite loot crate. Yeah. No, what

00:22:22.380 --> 00:22:25.440
was it called? Celestial. Celestial. But then

00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:29.779
the AI. Yeah. Gave them the goods. Yeah. Oh,

00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:31.799
you're not up to that yet. Yeah, I am. Oh, yeah.

00:22:31.819 --> 00:22:33.319
Yeah, pass that bit. Sorry, you are. That's where

00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:39.839
they got all the coupons for their space. Yep.

00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:41.799
Yep. I think, yeah, we're pretty much up to the

00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:48.200
same spot. Yeah. The AI in it with his obsession

00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:53.160
with Carl's feet is fucking hilarious. Just some

00:22:53.160 --> 00:22:55.319
of the shit he says too is fucking hilarious.

00:22:55.799 --> 00:23:00.099
And the voice that he puts on for it. New achievement.

00:23:00.579 --> 00:23:03.359
And then when he's talking about his feet, killing

00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:08.900
with his feet, he gets creepy, man. When he stomps

00:23:08.900 --> 00:23:11.099
on our mate's head, there's a golem whose head

00:23:11.099 --> 00:23:13.980
he stomps on. And then the next one, new achievement.

00:23:14.339 --> 00:23:15.819
And he's just sitting there and he starts breathing

00:23:15.819 --> 00:23:18.640
heavy and shit. And I'm like, you creepy prick.

00:23:18.839 --> 00:23:22.819
Sick fuck. It's just shit you don't get out of

00:23:22.819 --> 00:23:26.319
reading a book. Genuine laugh out loud moments.

00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:29.900
Yeah, dude. That's why I like it. It's funny

00:23:29.900 --> 00:23:32.259
you say genuine laugh out loud moments, and there

00:23:32.259 --> 00:23:38.480
are a few in these books. It's not – going back

00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:41.140
a few episodes, we were talking about horror

00:23:41.140 --> 00:23:45.059
books. I've never gone in a horror book. That's

00:23:45.059 --> 00:23:48.029
right, yeah. Ever. But there's – Literally, there's

00:23:48.029 --> 00:23:50.609
another book I read called, don't read it, listen

00:23:50.609 --> 00:23:53.150
to Expeditionary Force. There's 16 books in it.

00:23:54.490 --> 00:23:57.250
Legit, dude. Nearly every chapter there's a laugh

00:23:57.250 --> 00:24:00.950
out loud moment because, again, an AI is a cheeky

00:24:00.950 --> 00:24:03.289
arsehole and he just rips shreds off humans.

00:24:03.470 --> 00:24:07.789
It's hilarious. I do like this book's nod to

00:24:07.789 --> 00:24:10.849
Dungeons and Dragons and a lot of different creatures

00:24:10.849 --> 00:24:17.859
and even like Donut's magic missile. A couple

00:24:17.859 --> 00:24:21.240
of different spells. I'll cast a magic missile

00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:26.859
everywhere. That's pretty fun. But I do like

00:24:26.859 --> 00:24:33.160
this overarching kind of element of him saying,

00:24:33.299 --> 00:24:36.539
you know, you're not going to break me. You know,

00:24:36.599 --> 00:24:41.900
he's plotting the downfall of these people that

00:24:41.900 --> 00:24:44.460
are putting. these people in this situation.

00:24:44.940 --> 00:24:47.079
Even though no one's ever made it past the 13th

00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:51.480
level, he's Perth? Perth. Past. Past. There we

00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:55.400
go. Like in the history of this game, like thousands

00:24:55.400 --> 00:24:58.019
of years, no one's ever gone past the 13th level

00:24:58.019 --> 00:24:59.740
and he's like, no, that's my single goal, to

00:24:59.740 --> 00:25:02.279
get past the 13th level and fuck these bugs up.

00:25:02.460 --> 00:25:08.700
Yeah. Yeah. When I'm listening to it too, because

00:25:08.700 --> 00:25:11.440
he's an ex -Marine special, blah, blah, blah.

00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:16.119
Coast Guard. Coast Guard. Numbering. Let's wipe

00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:19.920
that out. So, like, he's a Coast Guard guy, so

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:22.920
he's fit, he's healthy, he's large. I can only

00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:29.420
picture Jack Reacher. With no pants on. No, dude.

00:25:29.740 --> 00:25:32.160
A couple of episodes ago in Reacher. Oh, God,

00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:36.200
here we go. He was wearing a towel. You could

00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:42.500
see shaft. It was bulging. And I'm like, that's

00:25:42.500 --> 00:25:47.940
my fucking Batman right there. So, yeah, this

00:25:47.940 --> 00:25:50.079
week's pop culture news, the stuff that's piqued

00:25:50.079 --> 00:25:52.859
our interest this week. Can we leave the big

00:25:52.859 --> 00:25:57.180
news till the end? Okay. Because I've got some

00:25:57.180 --> 00:25:59.400
things to say about a certain someone who sent

00:25:59.400 --> 00:26:03.839
me a certain picture. All right. There's a new

00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:06.660
Thunderbolts teaser trailer that's just come

00:26:06.660 --> 00:26:08.259
out. Haven't watched it? Haven't watched it.

00:26:08.299 --> 00:26:12.339
Haven't watched it? It looks pretty good. It

00:26:12.339 --> 00:26:18.019
starts off with Louis Dreyfus's CIA director.

00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:21.819
Yep. What's her name again? I've got it written

00:26:21.819 --> 00:26:26.640
down here because it's Valentina. Go. Valentina

00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:29.779
Allegra de Fontaine. Yep. Who is the director

00:26:29.779 --> 00:26:32.980
of the CIA in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

00:26:33.339 --> 00:26:38.029
Yes, sir. Starts off, she's saying he's stronger

00:26:38.029 --> 00:26:40.970
than all the Avengers combined. In reference

00:26:40.970 --> 00:26:45.609
to Bob's entry? Yes. Let's go! And he's soon

00:26:45.609 --> 00:26:49.990
to be known as Earth's Mightiest Hero. Ooh, Thor

00:26:49.990 --> 00:26:52.430
might have something to say about that. Well,

00:26:52.470 --> 00:26:56.509
that's a nod to the tagline for Earth's Mightiest

00:26:56.509 --> 00:27:00.049
Heroes for the Avengers. Yeah, yeah. And it's

00:27:00.049 --> 00:27:06.750
kind of set to these. shadowed pictures of the

00:27:06.750 --> 00:27:10.150
sentry kind of floating above the city, which

00:27:10.150 --> 00:27:12.829
we've seen touches of in other ones, but we're

00:27:12.829 --> 00:27:17.390
seeing more of that. And then you hear Pullman's,

00:27:17.390 --> 00:27:24.009
the sentry reply, why would a god take orders

00:27:24.009 --> 00:27:27.369
from anyone at all? Maybe I need to show you

00:27:27.369 --> 00:27:30.170
what I'm really capable of. And then that's when

00:27:30.170 --> 00:27:36.059
you see the hand gesture and people. Dude, if

00:27:36.059 --> 00:27:37.740
this is what they're showing in the fucking trailer,

00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:43.200
we all know that Marvel don't show shit that's

00:27:43.200 --> 00:27:48.319
important. Yeah. If this isn't what's not important

00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:50.400
to the story. What's going to happen? What the

00:27:50.400 --> 00:27:53.579
fuck's going to happen? Because every trailer's

00:27:53.579 --> 00:27:56.500
been different. Yeah, yeah. It's giving you a

00:27:56.500 --> 00:28:00.359
different vibe on what's going to happen. This

00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:04.460
is a movie I held no hopes for at all. I just

00:28:04.460 --> 00:28:08.319
saw her to be another black widow. I didn't like

00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:18.240
American Agent. I thought he was a piece of shit

00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:19.839
and his ears look far too big in that helmet.

00:28:20.500 --> 00:28:26.700
I could give or take the new black widow. I thought

00:28:26.700 --> 00:28:30.779
she was funny in Hawkeye. She was refreshing

00:28:30.779 --> 00:28:34.019
in that. Black Widow, I just thought she was

00:28:34.019 --> 00:28:35.599
a sport little brat that should have shut her

00:28:35.599 --> 00:28:41.480
mouth and stayed out of it. The Red Guardian

00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:45.700
is hilarious. I'll watch him in anything, dude.

00:28:46.460 --> 00:28:50.279
His Hellboy movie, he was the best part of it.

00:28:51.859 --> 00:28:56.319
So, yeah, I love Bucky Barnes. Don't get me wrong.

00:28:56.480 --> 00:28:58.539
I don't like Senator Bucky Barnes, but here we

00:28:58.539 --> 00:29:04.390
go. They're going to wrap that up in a nice little

00:29:04.390 --> 00:29:06.730
parcel. Yeah. He's the White Wolf, the bloke

00:29:06.730 --> 00:29:09.150
who's killed hundreds of people, who's now our

00:29:09.150 --> 00:29:11.690
congressman. Well, he did save the universe,

00:29:11.990 --> 00:29:15.569
or help save it. Yeah. So they won't give him

00:29:15.569 --> 00:29:19.849
a pass. Maybe. As you were saying about Yelena.

00:29:20.029 --> 00:29:22.609
Yep. Yelena? Yelena. The Black Widow, the new

00:29:22.609 --> 00:29:27.470
Black Widow. Yeah, when she was in Hawkeye, fun,

00:29:27.609 --> 00:29:29.890
funny. Yeah. And then Black Widow. But the thing

00:29:29.890 --> 00:29:32.710
is, the Black Widow. One. Was before. Was before

00:29:32.710 --> 00:29:35.690
him. Yeah. Yeah, and she was working for somebody

00:29:35.690 --> 00:29:39.029
in Hawkeye, wasn't she? I can't remember. It's

00:29:39.029 --> 00:29:41.069
been a minute since I watched that. No, she wasn't

00:29:41.069 --> 00:29:45.490
working for somebody. So she heard that Hawkeye

00:29:45.490 --> 00:29:47.930
killed a sister. That's right. And she was going

00:29:47.930 --> 00:29:50.190
after Hawkeye. That's right. And then at the

00:29:50.190 --> 00:29:55.170
end, she's at her sister's grave and the Fontaine

00:29:55.170 --> 00:29:57.930
come up to her and said, hey, I've got to put

00:29:57.930 --> 00:30:00.390
a team together. That's right. Yeah. I think.

00:30:00.859 --> 00:30:03.019
what's going to happen in this, and I've been

00:30:03.019 --> 00:30:07.640
proven wrong with Daredevil, but I kind of gauged

00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:11.839
pretty right with Captain America. I'm thinking

00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:17.359
that the CIA have a super soldier program. Yeah.

00:30:17.619 --> 00:30:20.579
The Sentry is going to be their product of that

00:30:20.579 --> 00:30:26.160
program. I think what's going to happen is they're

00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:27.640
going to introduce him. That's what the whole

00:30:27.640 --> 00:30:30.750
kind of court. procedural thing is them getting

00:30:30.750 --> 00:30:35.809
the kind of go -ahead to implement him as Earth's

00:30:35.809 --> 00:30:40.210
new mightiest hero. He's going to be like a CIA's

00:30:40.210 --> 00:30:43.210
kind of controlled weapon, basically. Winter

00:30:43.210 --> 00:30:46.390
soldier. Kind of. And that, I think, is what's

00:30:46.390 --> 00:30:49.250
going to go wrong, is whatever they've got over

00:30:49.250 --> 00:30:53.210
him to keep him in control is going to send him

00:30:53.210 --> 00:30:57.269
over the edge and start being all genocidal.

00:30:57.470 --> 00:30:59.690
Well, Killing people left, right, and center.

00:31:00.069 --> 00:31:02.849
Okay. So if they shit the bed with this, with

00:31:02.849 --> 00:31:08.809
the Sentry, can you remember when they introduced

00:31:08.809 --> 00:31:14.509
Adam Warlock in - Yeah. Right? And then you see

00:31:14.509 --> 00:31:22.950
him in Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Yeah. And whenever

00:31:22.950 --> 00:31:25.710
he opened his mouth, I just - wanted to turn

00:31:25.710 --> 00:31:28.049
the TV off because they made him into an infantile

00:31:28.049 --> 00:31:34.869
moron. Adam Warlock, he is the bloke who took

00:31:34.869 --> 00:31:37.710
out Thanos, the most powerful Avenger that ever

00:31:37.710 --> 00:31:44.170
lived. At that point in them books. Now, why

00:31:44.170 --> 00:31:47.490
are they going to give us every couple of years,

00:31:47.509 --> 00:31:49.549
are they going to give us a new Earth's Mightiest

00:31:49.549 --> 00:31:51.650
Hero every time they bring out something, just

00:31:51.650 --> 00:31:55.019
a retcon, an ability? Well, I mean, Adam Warlock

00:31:55.019 --> 00:31:59.640
is in space. He's not on Earth. Yeah. But the

00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:02.400
thing I like about the Sentry is he's nerfed.

00:32:02.460 --> 00:32:05.680
He's not like Superman. He is capable of great

00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:08.920
things like Superman, but... Well, Marvel's already

00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:10.819
got their own Superman, haven't they? In the

00:32:10.819 --> 00:32:13.859
Eternals. Yeah, Hyperion. Well, Hyperion isn't

00:32:13.859 --> 00:32:16.660
in the Eternals. That's... Played by the Stark

00:32:16.660 --> 00:32:20.140
guy. Yeah. I figure what he's... No, he's dead.

00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:24.490
He flew into the sun, remember? At the end. Oh.

00:32:25.009 --> 00:32:30.609
Yeah. Fair enough. Hyperion in the characters,

00:32:30.750 --> 00:32:35.430
in the comics is up there power level wise, but

00:32:35.430 --> 00:32:37.789
Sentry is pretty much the strongest being on

00:32:37.789 --> 00:32:39.990
earth. Right. I'm pretty sure. But he has this

00:32:39.990 --> 00:32:44.150
issue. He's got agoraphobia. He has this dark

00:32:44.150 --> 00:32:49.440
side of him. He kind of. He's mind -wiped everyone

00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:52.740
and himself in the past to kind of not be out

00:32:52.740 --> 00:32:54.680
in the public eye and stuff like that. Just because

00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:57.019
he's so powerful, they just don't want him to

00:32:57.019 --> 00:33:00.819
be there always on call to fix all these problems,

00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:07.380
whatever. So there's a good chance that they're

00:33:07.380 --> 00:33:08.960
going to have some kind of mental control on

00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:11.619
him. Whatever it is is going to go wrong. I'm

00:33:11.619 --> 00:33:13.940
thinking the Thunderbolts are going to be like

00:33:13.940 --> 00:33:16.950
serving. I think they're going to be working

00:33:16.950 --> 00:33:19.150
off a certain amount of time for their crimes.

00:33:19.150 --> 00:33:22.049
Suicide squad, isn't it? And they'll just be

00:33:22.049 --> 00:33:25.849
like a task force that's kind of there to back

00:33:25.849 --> 00:33:27.970
up the Sentry because the Sentry is just going

00:33:27.970 --> 00:33:29.630
to take care of whatever needs to be taken care

00:33:29.630 --> 00:33:32.170
of. Right. And they're going to be like. So you

00:33:32.170 --> 00:33:34.329
don't think the Sentry is going to be a sort

00:33:34.329 --> 00:33:37.130
of villain in this? Yeah, I do. I think he's

00:33:37.130 --> 00:33:39.089
going to go bad. Right. But I think it's going

00:33:39.089 --> 00:33:42.910
to be a mental thing. I think he's going to snap

00:33:42.910 --> 00:33:48.299
and just go dark. Again, so I don't take orders

00:33:48.299 --> 00:33:51.579
from you. Yeah, so I think whatever's going to

00:33:51.579 --> 00:33:53.819
happen, it's going to come to a T. They're going

00:33:53.819 --> 00:33:57.420
to be out doing some kind of mission. He's going

00:33:57.420 --> 00:33:59.319
to snap. They're meant to be there as backup,

00:33:59.500 --> 00:34:02.859
but they're like back against the wall. We're

00:34:02.859 --> 00:34:05.299
going to do something about this. We can't do

00:34:05.299 --> 00:34:06.819
something about this. We just got guns, right,

00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:08.099
right, right, but they're going to fucking pull

00:34:08.099 --> 00:34:11.800
it off somehow. Right. Speak to his inner humanity.

00:34:12.039 --> 00:34:14.809
Maybe. And obviously. Give him some magic mushrooms

00:34:14.809 --> 00:34:18.090
and calm down the void. Obviously there's going

00:34:18.090 --> 00:34:20.429
to be some kind of resolution because, as you

00:34:20.429 --> 00:34:25.269
mentioned before, he has been cast. In what?

00:34:25.550 --> 00:34:32.730
In Doomsday. Yes. I sat there and watched the

00:34:32.730 --> 00:34:38.369
feed roll through of the 25 actors that will

00:34:38.369 --> 00:34:44.139
be present in Doomsday. I tried to not. see this

00:34:44.139 --> 00:34:46.880
and I wanted to get a raw reaction from you.

00:34:47.019 --> 00:34:49.239
Yeah, that would have been nice. And then a former

00:34:49.239 --> 00:34:55.000
friend of mine who watches the podcast sent me

00:34:55.000 --> 00:35:01.780
a picture. Naughty boy. So I seen the cast. I

00:35:01.780 --> 00:35:05.619
was blown away by the cast. Oh, yeah. Got some

00:35:05.619 --> 00:35:10.280
questions. Why are they putting Ian McKellar?

00:35:14.009 --> 00:35:17.250
And the other guy, what's his name? Patrick Stewart.

00:35:17.309 --> 00:35:20.329
Patrick Stewart. Yeah. Why are they putting them

00:35:20.329 --> 00:35:23.869
in this movie? They're 80 years old. I know.

00:35:23.969 --> 00:35:27.210
It doesn't have to be the final X -Men that are

00:35:27.210 --> 00:35:28.710
introduced. No, no, no. But what are they going

00:35:28.710 --> 00:35:30.610
to do? Go visit a fucking nursing home and change

00:35:30.610 --> 00:35:32.809
you some bedpans for these fuckers or what? Because

00:35:32.809 --> 00:35:35.050
at the end of the day, man, you could have put

00:35:35.050 --> 00:35:39.989
McAvoy and All Might in it. I mean, I will wait

00:35:39.989 --> 00:35:43.559
and see what happens. No. Well, I mean, I think

00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:45.639
it might be some kind of changing of the guard.

00:35:45.820 --> 00:35:49.380
They might be using the old X -Men and we might

00:35:49.380 --> 00:35:53.300
get McAvoy and Fassbender in the future. I'm

00:35:53.300 --> 00:35:55.980
going to smack myself upside the head for that

00:35:55.980 --> 00:35:58.820
because I am really glad to see James Marsden

00:35:58.820 --> 00:36:01.860
come back as Cyclops and I really hope they fucking

00:36:01.860 --> 00:36:05.820
let him go. Yeah. I think he deserves it. He's

00:36:05.820 --> 00:36:07.920
always been second fiddle and pussy, but he's

00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:09.780
always been the leader of the fucking X -Men.

00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:12.929
Yeah. Give him some leadership to do. Don't just

00:36:12.929 --> 00:36:14.789
have him as a pining little boy who's crying

00:36:14.789 --> 00:36:18.409
after Jean Grey all the time. He's a fucking,

00:36:18.510 --> 00:36:22.090
he's an Omega level superhero. He can dead set

00:36:22.090 --> 00:36:24.789
wipe out a planet with his fucking beams. Let

00:36:24.789 --> 00:36:28.070
him run right. Give him his blue fucking suit,

00:36:28.150 --> 00:36:31.570
dude. We know it works. Put him in that blue

00:36:31.570 --> 00:36:40.210
suit. He's earned it, dude. Let him go. Ian McKellar

00:36:40.210 --> 00:36:43.269
and Patrick Stewart, you know, they're our Professor

00:36:43.269 --> 00:36:46.250
X and Magneta. I was quite happy to see those.

00:36:46.269 --> 00:36:48.670
I'm happy. I want to see him in his yellow chair

00:36:48.670 --> 00:36:52.210
again like we did in Doctor Strange. Yep. If

00:36:52.210 --> 00:36:56.550
it's the Illuminati line and they're just, I'm

00:36:56.550 --> 00:37:02.989
okay with that. There's some other massive stars

00:37:02.989 --> 00:37:05.550
returning. Thor's coming back. Now this here

00:37:05.550 --> 00:37:08.539
for Thor. He's got to be the longest and most

00:37:08.539 --> 00:37:13.360
serving Marvel hero to date. Am I wrong? MCU?

00:37:13.619 --> 00:37:16.059
Yeah. Yeah, because fucking Hugh Jackman took

00:37:16.059 --> 00:37:21.119
that. Yeah. MCU. Most definitely, yeah. He said

00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:22.239
he would play this character until he dies. Until

00:37:22.239 --> 00:37:25.599
he dies. Yeah. And I'm more for that. He is like

00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:29.599
Hugh Jackman. I can't – I hope that there's other

00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:33.219
actors as Wolverine because I don't ever want

00:37:33.219 --> 00:37:35.949
Wolverine to stop being in movies. Yeah. But

00:37:35.949 --> 00:37:40.170
Hugh Jackman, even though he's 6 '6", or 6 '3",

00:37:40.170 --> 00:37:42.250
or whatever he is, I don't give a shit because

00:37:42.250 --> 00:37:49.050
no one's going to be 5 '3". It's basically like

00:37:49.050 --> 00:37:52.610
an Oompa Loompa running at you with claws. We've

00:37:52.610 --> 00:37:56.710
seen that in Deadpool. It's not domineering.

00:37:56.989 --> 00:37:59.510
He's not, you know. So I'll just run through

00:37:59.510 --> 00:38:01.530
a few of the names. Let's go. You're going to

00:38:01.530 --> 00:38:04.769
get my live reaction, Jeremy. Yeah. Yeah, we've

00:38:04.769 --> 00:38:07.590
got Chris Hemsworth as Thor. Vanessa Kirby as

00:38:07.590 --> 00:38:10.809
Susan Storm, Invisible Woman. Anthony Mackie

00:38:10.809 --> 00:38:14.110
as Captain America. Yeah. Sebastian Stan, Winter

00:38:14.110 --> 00:38:16.969
Soldier. Yep. I'm going to love seeing them two

00:38:16.969 --> 00:38:21.210
back together. Hell yeah. Letitia Wright as Shuri,

00:38:21.369 --> 00:38:24.650
Black Panther. Paul Rudd as Ant -Man again. Fuck

00:38:24.650 --> 00:38:28.070
yes. Love it. We've got Wyatt Russell as US Agent.

00:38:29.449 --> 00:38:34.750
Tanok Yota, Mel Miara. Namor. I can't do that

00:38:34.750 --> 00:38:38.909
last name. Huerta. Huerta. Huerta. Sorry. Evan

00:38:38.909 --> 00:38:44.809
Moss, Backrack is the thing. Nice. We have Simu

00:38:44.809 --> 00:38:47.949
Liu, which is Shang -Chi, which would be good

00:38:47.949 --> 00:38:50.429
to see. I enjoyed Shang -Chi. Dude, he needs

00:38:50.429 --> 00:38:53.389
more. He needs another movie. Really does. Him

00:38:53.389 --> 00:38:55.070
and Awkwafina together were charming as shit.

00:38:55.210 --> 00:38:59.409
They need another one. Florence Poe, is it Poe?

00:38:59.510 --> 00:39:03.059
Poe. Elena, Black Widow. Kelsey Grammer back

00:39:03.059 --> 00:39:05.199
as Beast. Let's go. Man, when he popped up at

00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:09.539
the end of the Marvels. I was. Sick. I cheered.

00:39:09.639 --> 00:39:13.079
Yeah. I cheered. And he looked so good. Yeah,

00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:17.340
he did. It's not very often that I will champion

00:39:17.340 --> 00:39:22.019
CGI over a practical effect, but I think Marvel's

00:39:22.019 --> 00:39:24.920
MCU has got it down pat with like, I mean, while

00:39:24.920 --> 00:39:29.039
some of the Hulks have looked average, you've

00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:34.320
got Green Hulk in Ragnarok. Epic. Epic. The Red

00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:36.500
Hulk in Captain America. Still some of the best

00:39:36.500 --> 00:39:41.219
CG to date. The Thing looks sick. So good. Yeah.

00:39:41.360 --> 00:39:44.659
And Hank McCoy as Beast at the end of Marvels

00:39:44.659 --> 00:39:46.940
looked awesome. Yeah. Looked more like Beast

00:39:46.940 --> 00:39:49.260
than any other Beast we've ever seen. I agree.

00:39:49.900 --> 00:39:53.500
I agree with that. Keen to see that. Lewis Pullman

00:39:53.500 --> 00:39:56.329
is back as the Sentry. So obviously he survives.

00:39:56.670 --> 00:39:58.909
Well, and he's with some of the Thunderbolts

00:39:58.909 --> 00:40:00.969
as well. Potentially survives. Who knows? It's

00:40:00.969 --> 00:40:03.110
the multiverse. They're doing some weird things.

00:40:03.809 --> 00:40:05.710
I'm going to come back to the multiverse of it

00:40:05.710 --> 00:40:08.409
all in a minute. Mm -hmm. Danny Ramirez is back

00:40:08.409 --> 00:40:11.429
as the Falcon. Yep. He was funny as fuck in Captain

00:40:11.429 --> 00:40:14.630
America. Yep. Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, Human

00:40:14.630 --> 00:40:16.909
Torch. David Harbour as the Red Guardian again.

00:40:17.230 --> 00:40:20.409
Winston Duke as M 'Baku. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

00:40:20.469 --> 00:40:24.539
And then John Carman as Ghost. Tom Hiddleston

00:40:24.539 --> 00:40:32.159
as Loki. Dude, again, I'm not even mad. No. I

00:40:32.159 --> 00:40:34.260
love that he lost out because he went for Thor.

00:40:34.400 --> 00:40:38.639
Yeah. And a better Loki again. I couldn't have

00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:40.460
picked one. Yeah, absolutely. He's just nailed

00:40:40.460 --> 00:40:43.159
it. Then it went on to, because I'm doing these

00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:45.079
in the order that they read them out. Oh, yep,

00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:46.539
yep, yep. Sweet. Then it was Patrick Stewart

00:40:46.539 --> 00:40:50.679
as Professor X, Ian McKellen as Magneto, Alan

00:40:50.679 --> 00:40:54.159
Cumming as Nightcrawler. Hell yeah. Hell yeah.

00:40:54.579 --> 00:40:56.699
He was one of the best characters. Yeah, he was.

00:40:57.099 --> 00:41:01.440
I didn't mind the Nightcrawler in the later movies,

00:41:01.579 --> 00:41:09.599
in the new one, but he was, dude, so good. Rebecca

00:41:09.599 --> 00:41:15.119
Ramjin as Mystique, which I was pretty happy

00:41:15.119 --> 00:41:17.940
to see her come back. Yeah. James Marsden as

00:41:17.940 --> 00:41:23.500
Cyclops. Channing Tatum. Yes, dude. I'm going

00:41:23.500 --> 00:41:26.059
to be interested to see whether he rocks up and

00:41:26.059 --> 00:41:28.679
they're just going to have him in the fold as

00:41:28.679 --> 00:41:32.079
in that universe he's always been as part of

00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:34.300
that fold. That's going to be interesting to

00:41:34.300 --> 00:41:36.239
see what happens there. Absolutely. Then it was

00:41:36.239 --> 00:41:39.460
Pedro Pascal as Mr. Fantastic. And then Robert

00:41:39.460 --> 00:41:42.460
Downey Jr. walked in at the end. What do you

00:41:42.460 --> 00:41:47.139
think this was all? I don't know what that. Oh,

00:41:47.139 --> 00:41:50.610
yeah. I mean. What are you shushing, bro? You've

00:41:50.610 --> 00:41:53.849
just shown everyone's at home wiping the semen

00:41:53.849 --> 00:41:56.929
off their chest. Like, they already know. Yeah.

00:41:56.989 --> 00:41:59.329
I mean, it was all over social media straight

00:41:59.329 --> 00:42:06.769
away. That's why I'm not on it. Yeah. Then. But,

00:42:06.849 --> 00:42:12.949
yeah, it's quite the lineup. I've read that Chris

00:42:12.949 --> 00:42:16.630
Evans, Steve Rogers, is going to make a cameo

00:42:16.630 --> 00:42:19.920
in Fantastic Four. But Matt Shackman has made

00:42:19.920 --> 00:42:22.420
it very clear that they are the only heroes on

00:42:22.420 --> 00:42:29.079
their earth. So at the end, well, in the trailer

00:42:29.079 --> 00:42:30.900
of Fantastic Four, you see that ship taking off

00:42:30.900 --> 00:42:33.719
and blah, blah, blah, and we all see Galactus

00:42:33.719 --> 00:42:36.400
at the end. You think he's going to inhale that

00:42:36.400 --> 00:42:39.260
earth and then they're going to make their escape

00:42:39.260 --> 00:42:42.699
and then Franklin makes a portal from the womb

00:42:42.699 --> 00:42:45.130
or something maybe. Yeah, well, that would be

00:42:45.130 --> 00:42:47.289
pretty interesting if they'd just come from a

00:42:47.289 --> 00:42:52.289
defeat. Yeah. Straight into. Exactly right, dude.

00:42:53.070 --> 00:42:59.210
Very infinity war. They lose. Yeah. I can't see

00:42:59.210 --> 00:43:02.170
an issue with them losing in first steps. No.

00:43:02.250 --> 00:43:04.789
I think that will rock a lot of people that don't

00:43:04.789 --> 00:43:07.409
know what's going on. Absolutely. Yeah. A lot

00:43:07.409 --> 00:43:09.590
of people are going to be like, if that is the

00:43:09.590 --> 00:43:12.730
case. Yeah. Yeah, that will rock a few people.

00:43:12.909 --> 00:43:16.170
I think so. Starting it off with a loss. Yeah.

00:43:16.710 --> 00:43:20.070
Because, yeah, they're apparently in the movie.

00:43:20.130 --> 00:43:22.829
They've been active for a while. They're not

00:43:22.829 --> 00:43:27.730
just. It's not an origin story, which is, yeah,

00:43:28.210 --> 00:43:31.309
going to be interesting. Now, it's been, how

00:43:31.309 --> 00:43:34.050
long has it been since Black Panther 2? Two or

00:43:34.050 --> 00:43:39.090
three. Two or three? Yeah. Now, when we, you

00:43:39.090 --> 00:43:41.130
know, you can see time jumps and that over a

00:43:41.130 --> 00:43:45.559
certain duration. They introduced T 'Challa,

00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:50.239
his son, in Black Panther 2. Would you rather

00:43:50.239 --> 00:43:54.119
see Shuri? Now, she's been Black Panther. It's

00:43:54.119 --> 00:43:57.079
on the list. They didn't say it. She says Latisha

00:43:57.079 --> 00:44:01.360
Wright on the chair. Now, whether she's going

00:44:01.360 --> 00:44:06.079
to be a Black Panther in Doomsday. No, I'm happy

00:44:06.079 --> 00:44:07.840
to see her as Black Panther again. You are? I

00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:10.539
don't want them to rob her of that. Just because

00:44:10.539 --> 00:44:12.719
of the situation, everything's gone down. Yep.

00:44:12.719 --> 00:44:16.699
I think his son's too young. We're not going

00:44:16.699 --> 00:44:20.460
to have that much of a time skip. But I do look

00:44:20.460 --> 00:44:22.840
forward to seeing the tension between her and

00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:27.300
Namor. Oh, yeah. And this is the thing, too.

00:44:27.380 --> 00:44:29.679
I think I'll have to re -watch Black Panther

00:44:29.679 --> 00:44:31.139
2. I don't know what happens at the end of that.

00:44:31.219 --> 00:44:34.159
I can't remember. Which is pretty sad because

00:44:34.159 --> 00:44:37.000
I should fucking remember that. She pretty much

00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:41.320
kicks his ass. is the bigger person at the end

00:44:41.320 --> 00:44:44.699
lets him go. Right. So you reckon this is where

00:44:44.699 --> 00:44:48.079
we're going to get the hero turn from Namor and

00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:50.219
it'll be a bit of a conflict between them two

00:44:50.219 --> 00:44:52.800
fighting on the same side? Yeah. Well, I mean,

00:44:52.800 --> 00:44:55.260
he's always been a hero to his people. Yeah.

00:44:56.619 --> 00:45:01.219
Kukulkan. Kukulkan, yeah. Yeah. He doesn't give

00:45:01.219 --> 00:45:04.880
a fuck about the land dwellers. Yeah. But it's

00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:07.900
going to be a worldwide crisis. The whole world's

00:45:07.900 --> 00:45:10.840
going to be at risk. He'll be down for the fight.

00:45:11.139 --> 00:45:14.280
I think Namor, even in the comics, he's always

00:45:14.280 --> 00:45:20.519
been like a very standoffish in his alliances

00:45:20.519 --> 00:45:25.059
with other heroes. I don't think anything's going

00:45:25.059 --> 00:45:28.219
to change there. Sweet. Now, is Doomsday a book?

00:45:31.820 --> 00:45:35.780
Is this going to tap into any? Any stories that

00:45:35.780 --> 00:45:38.539
we know of? I think there's so many threads that

00:45:38.539 --> 00:45:40.219
they could be pulling from, so many different

00:45:40.219 --> 00:45:43.480
stories. Yeah, I don't know what they're going

00:45:43.480 --> 00:45:48.940
to do. Now, on this little podcast I used to

00:45:48.940 --> 00:45:52.199
listen to, I don't know if anyone's heard of

00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:54.280
it, it's like Joe Rogan Experience or something.

00:45:55.820 --> 00:45:58.239
It's a little podcast. I'm giving my shout out,

00:45:58.320 --> 00:46:01.559
everyone. Tune in to Joe Rogan Experience. Anyway.

00:46:02.880 --> 00:46:05.019
He had Tony Stark. He had Tony Stark. Robert

00:46:05.019 --> 00:46:07.139
Downey Jr. Tony Stark, yeah. Yeah, all right.

00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:09.780
So he had Robert Downey Jr. on there. And he

00:46:09.780 --> 00:46:12.480
literally said, would you ever come back? And

00:46:12.480 --> 00:46:14.860
he goes, dude, wouldn't you feel cheated if I

00:46:14.860 --> 00:46:17.300
came back? Yeah. How do you feel about Robert

00:46:17.300 --> 00:46:21.260
Downey Jr. coming back to the MCU? And pitch

00:46:21.260 --> 00:46:24.239
me how you would want him to come back, knowing

00:46:24.239 --> 00:46:27.500
that that farewell to Tony Stark doesn't get

00:46:27.500 --> 00:46:31.099
much better. Yeah. If he makes us hate him straight

00:46:31.099 --> 00:46:33.789
off the bat. I'm all down for it. Let's go. Yeah.

00:46:33.869 --> 00:46:40.289
If he's going to be vile, be hateable. Yep. Yeah.

00:46:40.590 --> 00:46:44.550
Complete opposite to Iron Man. Yeah, as long

00:46:44.550 --> 00:46:49.190
as he has no connection to that Iron Man, like

00:46:49.190 --> 00:46:52.369
that Tony Stark, his experiences, that they're

00:46:52.369 --> 00:46:55.710
all his own and he kind of had like a fantasy.

00:46:55.710 --> 00:46:57.750
Like when he shows up and Morgan goes, Daddy,

00:46:57.849 --> 00:47:06.210
and he goes. Jesus Christ. No. Okay. Do you –

00:47:06.210 --> 00:47:10.829
are you excited for the fact that the MCU started

00:47:10.829 --> 00:47:15.309
with Robert Downey Jr.? It ended – let's face

00:47:15.309 --> 00:47:17.989
it, it ended. Basically. With Robert Downey Jr.

00:47:18.230 --> 00:47:21.250
Yeah. Coming into this new era where we're at

00:47:21.250 --> 00:47:23.309
a lull with the MCU at the moment because, let's

00:47:23.309 --> 00:47:27.889
face it, there's been a lot of misses. Do you

00:47:27.889 --> 00:47:29.389
think they're clutching at straws or you reckon

00:47:29.389 --> 00:47:33.000
this is – actually a good thing. I don't necessarily

00:47:33.000 --> 00:47:35.900
think it's a bad thing. Would have you rather

00:47:35.900 --> 00:47:38.920
had seen a different Dr. Derm, a different actor

00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:40.900
portraying a Dr. Derm? I would have been quite

00:47:40.900 --> 00:47:44.800
happy. Yeah? Man, I would have been ecstatic

00:47:44.800 --> 00:47:48.980
if they'd kept it under wraps. Could you imagine

00:47:48.980 --> 00:47:52.480
if they just had some dude in a mask, put a little

00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:54.940
voice modulation on him or something, put a metal

00:47:54.940 --> 00:47:58.239
ring to it to throw everyone off and to have

00:47:58.239 --> 00:48:04.900
that reveal? It would have been momentous. Yeah.

00:48:06.960 --> 00:48:09.699
Yeah. Do you think it could have been done though?

00:48:10.179 --> 00:48:16.079
Do you legit think that you could keep that much

00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:21.079
of a thing? Now, I mean, we've seen Marvel and

00:48:21.079 --> 00:48:25.119
Disney do a lot of whole shit with the volume,

00:48:25.360 --> 00:48:28.880
that big screen that they film in front of. You're

00:48:28.880 --> 00:48:30.920
saying they just film all of his scenes and then

00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:33.440
add it post? Man, I would have been happy for

00:48:33.440 --> 00:48:37.260
him to pay somebody to be playing Doom and have

00:48:37.260 --> 00:48:41.679
everybody think it was somebody else. Just voiceover

00:48:41.679 --> 00:48:46.119
him in post and then reveal it right at the end,

00:48:46.119 --> 00:48:49.179
even to the cast. Like even to the cast when

00:48:49.179 --> 00:48:55.780
he, dude. Could you imagine? Yeah. Yeah, right.

00:48:56.159 --> 00:48:58.400
Yeah, if they could have done that. Yeah, like

00:48:58.400 --> 00:49:03.219
you said, Darth Vader. Have you heard the original

00:49:03.219 --> 00:49:10.099
Darth Vader? Terrible. Terrible. You're a traitor

00:49:10.099 --> 00:49:13.320
and a spy. Take her away. He was fucking Canadian.

00:49:13.420 --> 00:49:15.400
No, he's British, but he sounded like he should

00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:18.579
have been a talking head. Yeah. Ah, fucker, fucker.

00:49:19.639 --> 00:49:25.360
Yeah. So terrible. Jarring, yeah, to go back

00:49:25.360 --> 00:49:29.980
and listen to it. Yeah. And just touching on

00:49:29.980 --> 00:49:32.940
that, we may as well go into our rant and sundry

00:49:32.940 --> 00:49:34.619
part right now where we're just going to talk

00:49:34.619 --> 00:49:40.960
shit anyway. Transition. Sorry. Have you seen

00:49:40.960 --> 00:49:43.679
the videos of old mate that was playing Chewbacca,

00:49:43.760 --> 00:49:47.639
actually had lines? So when they're talking to

00:49:47.639 --> 00:49:49.340
him, they're talking to a fellow that's talking

00:49:49.340 --> 00:49:53.110
and all the... and carry on was added in post.

00:49:53.309 --> 00:49:58.510
Really? Yeah. Yeah, I think there's a scene where

00:49:58.510 --> 00:50:03.489
they're on Hoth and they're working on the Millennium

00:50:03.489 --> 00:50:06.289
Falcon. Chewie's on top, Han's on the ground,

00:50:06.429 --> 00:50:11.309
and behind the scenes of Han yelling and, oh,

00:50:11.329 --> 00:50:14.349
my God, forgive me, Matthew, the big tall fellow

00:50:14.349 --> 00:50:16.309
that played. Was it Mayhew? Mayhew, yeah. His

00:50:16.309 --> 00:50:18.730
last name is Mayhew? Yeah. He passed away not

00:50:18.730 --> 00:50:21.190
long ago. Yeah. R .I .P. Yeah. Him just yelling

00:50:21.190 --> 00:50:23.550
back about the conducive and this thing's fuck,

00:50:23.650 --> 00:50:25.989
what are you talking about or whatever. Like,

00:50:26.130 --> 00:50:28.289
well, it makes sense that, you know, they have

00:50:28.289 --> 00:50:30.210
something to bounce off these actors. Yeah, exactly.

00:50:30.329 --> 00:50:34.329
And, yeah, just later on they. Chuck in the chewy.

00:50:35.050 --> 00:50:37.989
Yeah. Hey, I've got a joke. I've got a couple

00:50:37.989 --> 00:50:40.909
of jokes for you. Two drums and a cymbal fall

00:50:40.909 --> 00:50:52.730
off a cliff. Right. Ba -doomts. I can tell these

00:50:52.730 --> 00:50:58.329
jokes are going to be more for you than me. Oh,

00:50:58.489 --> 00:51:02.730
shit. You want another one? Give me. Mate got

00:51:02.730 --> 00:51:05.150
crushed by a heap of books. He's only got his

00:51:05.150 --> 00:51:13.030
shelf to blame. I think the fact that you're

00:51:13.030 --> 00:51:15.969
cracking yourself up is funnier than the jokes.

00:51:20.429 --> 00:51:23.269
Do you want another one? Oh, yeah. Why do dogs

00:51:23.269 --> 00:51:34.170
float? Why? Because they're a good boy. I get

00:51:34.170 --> 00:51:40.889
it. Oh, I get it. Yeah, I get it. Oh, fucking

00:51:40.889 --> 00:51:50.030
so good. Moving on from that. Oh, actually. through

00:51:50.030 --> 00:51:53.489
the week, I watched Romulus. Oh, did you? Yeah,

00:51:53.489 --> 00:51:57.690
yeah. Dude. Dug it? Yeah. Last 15 minutes can

00:51:57.690 --> 00:51:59.349
stay in the fucking coloring room floor as far

00:51:59.349 --> 00:52:02.050
as I'm concerned. That didn't need to be seen.

00:52:02.409 --> 00:52:06.769
Yeah, it was a fucking weird. Just stop it. Stop

00:52:06.769 --> 00:52:09.610
it here. The worst part is it was an actual dude

00:52:09.610 --> 00:52:12.190
in a suit. I know. That's his shape, man. Like,

00:52:12.190 --> 00:52:17.750
what the fuck? No, just no. Yeah. Just no. Cutting

00:52:17.750 --> 00:52:21.250
room floor exists for a reason. I know because

00:52:21.250 --> 00:52:23.710
you cut like 90 % of the funny shit I say every

00:52:23.710 --> 00:52:28.909
week. Funny or offensive, we'll leave it up to

00:52:28.909 --> 00:52:33.070
you. Just fucking leave that. Didn't need to

00:52:33.070 --> 00:52:36.909
see that at all. They reckon they're going to

00:52:36.909 --> 00:52:41.650
make more. More for it. Look, the fact that it

00:52:41.650 --> 00:52:46.130
was connected but not connected, fine. Give me

00:52:46.130 --> 00:52:49.469
more of that. Give me more alien stories. What

00:52:49.469 --> 00:52:53.869
was the synthetic guy's name? Denny. Denny. Andy.

00:52:54.269 --> 00:52:57.650
Andy? Andy. Toy Story, there you go. Andy. Dude,

00:52:57.829 --> 00:53:02.269
that dude, man, so expressive. Holy shit. Dude.

00:53:02.570 --> 00:53:06.550
And to play like a non -expressive kind of character,

00:53:06.769 --> 00:53:09.489
just the way his face changed when he flipped.

00:53:10.949 --> 00:53:13.809
Exactly right. He was like a kid in the first

00:53:13.809 --> 00:53:15.670
like. half an hour of the movie. And then when

00:53:15.670 --> 00:53:19.650
he gets the implant changed around, it was like

00:53:19.650 --> 00:53:21.469
a completely different actor was cast as that

00:53:21.469 --> 00:53:23.610
role. Yeah. Insanely well done. Different posture,

00:53:23.829 --> 00:53:29.530
the way his face just morphed. Even in his eyes,

00:53:29.550 --> 00:53:30.989
you could see it in his eyes. Yeah, it did. Yeah,

00:53:30.989 --> 00:53:35.530
it was fantastic. The one I watched was the director's

00:53:35.530 --> 00:53:38.030
edition. So they, you know, you got the synthetic

00:53:38.030 --> 00:53:40.989
who was cut in half, giving you some exhibition

00:53:40.989 --> 00:53:44.260
halfway through. Did you run into issues with

00:53:44.260 --> 00:53:46.519
the mouth looking a bit two -dimensional? Well,

00:53:46.639 --> 00:53:48.920
apparently the whole thing looked worse, and

00:53:48.920 --> 00:53:51.719
they went through and touched it up a bit. But

00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:57.460
I think the xenomorphs in this were the best

00:53:57.460 --> 00:54:00.760
I've ever seen. Just the detail in the biomech

00:54:00.760 --> 00:54:03.219
was incredible. Yeah, those facehuggers were

00:54:03.219 --> 00:54:06.119
skittling around. They were practical effects,

00:54:06.340 --> 00:54:08.480
dude. Yeah, they were little fucking remote -controlled

00:54:08.480 --> 00:54:09.900
cars. Yeah, they were sick. They were fucking

00:54:09.900 --> 00:54:14.650
sick. Yeah. I really, really, really enjoyed

00:54:14.650 --> 00:54:18.369
it for the first time in a long time. You know,

00:54:18.429 --> 00:54:19.989
some of these ones that have come and gone, they're

00:54:19.989 --> 00:54:23.510
just not memorable at all. I love the whole slap

00:54:23.510 --> 00:54:25.889
in the face when she goes, why would you leave

00:54:25.889 --> 00:54:28.550
them behind? Why would you? She asks Andy, like,

00:54:28.630 --> 00:54:30.030
why would you? How could you do that? How could

00:54:30.030 --> 00:54:32.309
you? And he's like, what? Leave somebody behind.

00:54:32.949 --> 00:54:34.889
And then the realization was like, oh, I was

00:54:34.889 --> 00:54:37.809
going to do that to you. It was like, fuck yeah.

00:54:38.070 --> 00:54:43.539
Yeah. I liked that. On planet side, that was

00:54:43.539 --> 00:54:47.820
all shot in an old quarry. Nice. So all practical,

00:54:47.940 --> 00:54:50.719
tent set up and shit. One of the best shots I

00:54:50.719 --> 00:54:54.099
think for the film was where the Romulus is sort

00:54:54.099 --> 00:54:58.239
of decaying into the rings of the planet and

00:54:58.239 --> 00:54:59.940
it's just, you can see it's big clumps of ice.

00:55:00.139 --> 00:55:02.219
Yeah. And it's just like going through a cheese

00:55:02.219 --> 00:55:05.280
grater. Some of the best visualisation I've seen

00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:09.030
for a space crash. and it's sort of coming down

00:55:09.030 --> 00:55:10.789
and just getting shredded as it's going down.

00:55:10.869 --> 00:55:12.710
But then when the other ship's coming over the

00:55:12.710 --> 00:55:14.590
top, you can see they're sort of moving at the

00:55:14.590 --> 00:55:18.809
same speed. So it gives a lot of scale and a

00:55:18.809 --> 00:55:21.929
lot of, like, you can sort of see speed when

00:55:21.929 --> 00:55:24.670
it's literally a two -dimensional image on a

00:55:24.670 --> 00:55:28.769
screen. I'm interested to see what this alien

00:55:28.769 --> 00:55:31.070
Earth that's coming out is going to be. Yeah,

00:55:31.110 --> 00:55:35.570
right. Yeah, so it's based on Earth, obviously,

00:55:35.670 --> 00:55:41.559
by the name. I think it's set just after Romulus.

00:55:43.199 --> 00:55:45.579
Because that was after Alien. It's set before

00:55:45.579 --> 00:55:49.139
Alien. Right. Set before Alien. Before Ripley.

00:55:49.239 --> 00:55:52.260
Yeah, before they've gone out looking for. Yeah,

00:55:52.260 --> 00:55:55.599
right. Or after Prometheus. Was Romulus after

00:55:55.599 --> 00:55:59.139
two or was it after one? One. So it was after

00:55:59.139 --> 00:56:02.719
one and then Aliens. So it kind of covered up

00:56:02.719 --> 00:56:08.599
the loophole of why. When she got off the, in

00:56:08.599 --> 00:56:12.079
Alien, the ship was called, almost had it there.

00:56:12.159 --> 00:56:17.280
Anyway, when she blew that ship up. Yeah. I wanted

00:56:17.280 --> 00:56:20.139
to say Lenovo. No, that's the planet. Yeah, the

00:56:20.139 --> 00:56:24.300
loophole of how she was meant to be going back

00:56:24.300 --> 00:56:26.719
to Earth after blowing up the freighter. Yep.

00:56:27.099 --> 00:56:30.940
And then she randomly gets picked up outside

00:56:30.940 --> 00:56:37.010
of Earth's kind of. jurisdiction. Yeah. No, that's

00:56:37.010 --> 00:56:42.969
right. Yeah. By these scrappers and the time

00:56:42.969 --> 00:56:46.929
that had changed. So, yeah, she'd been picked

00:56:46.929 --> 00:56:50.730
up. She was on Romulus and it was when it went

00:56:50.730 --> 00:56:53.650
down that the scrap, that's where they found

00:56:53.650 --> 00:56:57.570
she'd been hiding, they'd been hiding her and

00:56:57.570 --> 00:57:00.789
the sample xenomorph on this space station for

00:57:00.789 --> 00:57:03.739
a long time. Right. Yeah, so they've kind of

00:57:03.739 --> 00:57:06.659
retconned that a little bit. I like it. Yeah.

00:57:08.920 --> 00:57:10.940
See, they did the same thing with Rogue One.

00:57:12.500 --> 00:57:14.360
Still one of my favourite Star Wars stories of

00:57:14.360 --> 00:57:17.280
all time. Oh, yeah. Holds up. You knew that,

00:57:17.280 --> 00:57:18.940
you know, them Bothans weren't going to get off

00:57:18.940 --> 00:57:20.739
that planet. You knew they were all going to

00:57:20.739 --> 00:57:25.119
die. But I was fucking invested. Yeah. From the

00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:27.579
opening credits till the closing credits, dude.

00:57:27.659 --> 00:57:31.739
It was a great movie. Absolutely. And just. Filled

00:57:31.739 --> 00:57:35.739
that hole. Filled a hole. Yeah. I don't need

00:57:35.739 --> 00:57:38.780
to have three movies of a Senate told. Mm -hmm.

00:57:39.400 --> 00:57:44.000
That little one story was epic. In my opinion,

00:57:44.099 --> 00:57:46.639
the best instalment in the Star Wars universe

00:57:46.639 --> 00:57:52.840
with Andor close behind it. Yep. Depending on

00:57:52.840 --> 00:57:56.519
what this second season does, Andor could overtake

00:57:56.519 --> 00:57:59.699
that. Right. But I still think, yeah, Rogue One

00:57:59.699 --> 00:58:02.650
is. Rogue One was so good. Yeah. Even like how

00:58:02.650 --> 00:58:04.510
they elaborated on the hallway scene with Darth

00:58:04.510 --> 00:58:07.469
Vader coming through. Yeah. Fucking brutal. Made

00:58:07.469 --> 00:58:11.289
him actually posing. Yeah. A badass. Yeah. Instead

00:58:11.289 --> 00:58:14.170
of just walking in after the stormtroopers have

00:58:14.170 --> 00:58:18.210
missed every fucking shot. Yeah. But yeah, I

00:58:18.210 --> 00:58:23.650
was, they're going the right way about the Alien

00:58:23.650 --> 00:58:26.289
franchise. Like they've just, they're filming

00:58:26.289 --> 00:58:28.769
Badlands at the moment, which is the sequel to

00:58:28.769 --> 00:58:33.619
Prey. Mm -hmm. Prey I thought was tits. I still

00:58:33.619 --> 00:58:35.300
haven't watched it. I don't know why I haven't

00:58:35.300 --> 00:58:39.239
watched it. Mate, it is absolutely incredible.

00:58:41.719 --> 00:58:44.139
The story's amazing. The actors are amazing.

00:58:44.420 --> 00:58:50.920
And when you see the predator. Because he's a

00:58:50.920 --> 00:58:52.760
more primal predator. He's a very primal dude.

00:58:52.840 --> 00:58:56.000
Like he's wearing a bone mask and he's, you know,

00:58:56.019 --> 00:58:59.949
all of his technology is very primitive. And

00:58:59.949 --> 00:59:02.070
you can see the evolution of it. So to see him

00:59:02.070 --> 00:59:04.030
come up against the Xenomorph, the Xenomorph

00:59:04.030 --> 00:59:05.590
would have just wiped the fucking floor with

00:59:05.590 --> 00:59:07.670
him. Yeah. Because he's not that imposing. He's

00:59:07.670 --> 00:59:09.510
not that powerful. He's not that fast. He doesn't

00:59:09.510 --> 00:59:16.070
have all the tech. But you bring, show me that

00:59:16.070 --> 00:59:19.750
evolution of the Predators and then have them

00:59:19.750 --> 00:59:21.409
go back to the homeworld where they're fighting

00:59:21.409 --> 00:59:26.829
fucking the Xenomorphs. Dude. Yeah. Retcon. Reboot.

00:59:26.849 --> 00:59:29.929
Do this shit. I'm all for it. But just don't

00:59:29.929 --> 00:59:33.329
– because the originals are always going to be

00:59:33.329 --> 00:59:35.289
there for us. They're not going anywhere. That's

00:59:35.289 --> 00:59:38.530
right. It's funny, as big a fan as I am of the

00:59:38.530 --> 00:59:40.769
Alien series, I've never really been a massive

00:59:40.769 --> 00:59:44.309
Predator fan where a lot of people take them.

00:59:44.489 --> 00:59:46.889
I was the other way. Yeah, right. I was the other

00:59:46.889 --> 00:59:49.789
way. So I was a massive Predator fan and it wasn't

00:59:49.789 --> 00:59:54.449
until – because at the end of Predator 2, Denny

00:59:54.449 --> 00:59:58.800
Glover's on a Predator ship and there's a – There's

00:59:58.800 --> 01:00:01.659
a xenomorph's head. Yeah, the skull. And you're

01:00:01.659 --> 01:00:07.099
like, fuck's that? And then I watched Alien after

01:00:07.099 --> 01:00:14.260
that. So Predator led me into Alien. And then

01:00:14.260 --> 01:00:16.380
when they started doing like fucking AVP and

01:00:16.380 --> 01:00:18.539
shit, I'm like, oh, yes. And then I watched it

01:00:18.539 --> 01:00:25.320
and I'm like, fuck, no. Just, yeah. But Predators,

01:00:25.480 --> 01:00:28.949
the one with. Adrian Brody. Yeah. I enjoyed that

01:00:28.949 --> 01:00:31.829
one. I enjoyed it. I like the fact that it explained

01:00:31.829 --> 01:00:34.429
what a predator was. Yeah. Because up until that

01:00:34.429 --> 01:00:36.230
point, you didn't understand what they were.

01:00:36.369 --> 01:00:39.670
They were just killing machines. But no, they're

01:00:39.670 --> 01:00:44.570
a race who have, they've got tradition. Yeah.

01:00:44.809 --> 01:00:47.409
They're very Native American and that sort of

01:00:47.409 --> 01:00:49.590
thing. Like you go out into the wilderness, you

01:00:49.590 --> 01:00:51.929
earn your stripes, you go hunting, you learn

01:00:51.929 --> 01:00:55.510
to be a man, come back, tell us what you've learned.

01:00:55.670 --> 01:01:00.099
Yeah. I liked it. Yeah. So to see that more with

01:01:00.099 --> 01:01:03.460
Prey and Badlands and that, yeah. There's infinite

01:01:03.460 --> 01:01:05.320
stories you can tell with that sort of storyline.

01:01:05.639 --> 01:01:08.079
Yeah. That's one thing I've always kind of wanted

01:01:08.079 --> 01:01:11.000
to delve into is the comics and the backstory

01:01:11.000 --> 01:01:14.119
and the lore of all that. Just never got the

01:01:14.119 --> 01:01:16.599
time to do it yet. Yeah. I don't think I've ever

01:01:16.599 --> 01:01:19.719
read a Predator or Alien comic. I reckon it's

01:01:19.719 --> 01:01:23.099
pretty rich, the lore for their, I want to say

01:01:23.099 --> 01:01:27.420
Utani, but that's the name. Alien. What was the

01:01:27.420 --> 01:01:31.300
name of the race, the predator race? U-thai? U-tai?

01:01:31.820 --> 01:01:38.599
U-tai? Yurik-ai is an... Fuck, how do I know that?

01:01:39.059 --> 01:01:45.420
It's an Uruk-hai. Uruk-hai. Why do I know that?

01:01:45.460 --> 01:01:47.400
That's Golem. You're trying to emulate Golem.

01:01:49.739 --> 01:01:58.909
But anyway. Yeah. I think on that note, we might

01:01:58.909 --> 01:02:03.329
end it here. Sounds good, boss. Yeah. Thank you

01:02:03.329 --> 01:02:05.650
