WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.879
Sweet. From the Dungeons of Morningstar, I'm

00:00:02.879 --> 00:00:05.879
Clint. And I'm Stretch, and this is Prevailing

00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:20.280
Strange. G'day guys, and welcome to Pop Culture

00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:22.600
News with Prevailing Strange, where we share

00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:24.199
some of the tidbits that have crossed our feeds,

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:26.079
and we get to check out some of the latest trailers

00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:27.780
that have dropped this week. If you like what

00:00:27.780 --> 00:00:29.460
we're doing here, guys, we sure as hell love

00:00:29.460 --> 00:00:31.640
doing it. So please, if you could just give some

00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:33.840
feedback, like, subscribe, tell us what you like

00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:36.340
to listen to, some stuff that you've been watching

00:00:36.340 --> 00:00:38.799
too. We'll chat up about it. What news have you

00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:40.200
got for me this week, buddy? Get ready, motherfucker.

00:00:42.340 --> 00:00:48.219
Well, we don't – if you're after politics on

00:00:48.219 --> 00:00:52.399
this show, you can tune out. We're not going

00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:53.659
to be talking about that. We're going to be talking

00:00:53.659 --> 00:00:58.259
about Batman 2 scripts. Oh, yeah. Mm -hmm. We're

00:00:58.259 --> 00:01:01.700
not because nothing's been said about it. I wish

00:01:01.700 --> 00:01:10.260
there was, though. So I have been watching The

00:01:10.260 --> 00:01:12.019
Rock has been popping up in the news a fair bit

00:01:12.019 --> 00:01:14.719
lately due to his new movie coming out, The Smashing

00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:17.480
Machine. Now, we're both UFC fans, so we know

00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:27.060
the guy who it's made from. Do you agree? that

00:01:27.060 --> 00:01:29.099
the steroids have finally taken a toll on the

00:01:29.099 --> 00:01:33.319
rock because he's lost a lot of weight. And now

00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:36.659
he's just said that Jumanji 3 begins filming

00:01:36.659 --> 00:01:40.200
in November. Now, you've got to think, man, how

00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:42.560
big he was in Jumanji 2, and he's meant to be

00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:44.859
a video game character. Mm -hmm, mm -hmm, yeah.

00:01:46.180 --> 00:01:50.219
And the whole joke about him in Jumanji is, oh,

00:01:50.219 --> 00:01:52.319
my God, he's so big and strong. He's smouldering

00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:55.290
good looks. Yeah, who knows what's going to happen

00:01:55.290 --> 00:01:57.489
there. Apparently the reviews are starting to

00:01:57.489 --> 00:01:59.129
come in for that smashing machine and they reckon

00:01:59.129 --> 00:02:01.250
it's no good. Oh, really? Well, apparently you

00:02:01.250 --> 00:02:03.450
got like a 16 -minute standing ovation at Cannes.

00:02:03.469 --> 00:02:05.909
Yeah. Was it Cannes? Yeah, film festival. Yeah.

00:02:06.489 --> 00:02:12.909
Yeah, standing 15. Look, unless you're a UFC

00:02:12.909 --> 00:02:15.509
diehard fan, like this guy was one of the first

00:02:15.509 --> 00:02:17.909
fighters in the UFC. Yep. Unless you're a diehard

00:02:17.909 --> 00:02:19.289
fan, you're not going to really know about it.

00:02:19.610 --> 00:02:22.270
And it's funny, like The Rock with the prosthetic

00:02:22.270 --> 00:02:24.319
makeup. Looks different. Doesn't look anything

00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:26.379
like old mate. Nothing like the dude. So why

00:02:26.379 --> 00:02:29.039
do the prosthesis? Yeah, I don't know. Sorry.

00:02:29.419 --> 00:02:31.879
You said Batman before. So James Gunn was on

00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.120
the Howard Stern show. Yeah. You know this one?

00:02:35.259 --> 00:02:38.159
No. I don't watch Howard Stern. He's a douche.

00:02:38.300 --> 00:02:41.740
I don't like the week. Keep going. So he teased

00:02:41.740 --> 00:02:46.979
that Man of Tomorrow will be a somewhat team

00:02:46.979 --> 00:02:50.360
up of Lex Luthor and Superman against a greater

00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.900
threat. I don't believe it. That'd be cool. That's

00:02:53.900 --> 00:02:56.539
what James Gunn said himself. Oh, could James

00:02:56.539 --> 00:03:01.280
Gunn be going for the - Red Herring? No. What

00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:06.740
was that video game? The DC video game. Injustice?

00:03:06.740 --> 00:03:08.800
Yeah, Injustice. So it was based on a comic book,

00:03:08.900 --> 00:03:14.599
right? The Injustice storyline, where Lex Luthor

00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:18.219
was - Luthor was the - Was the good guy, like

00:03:18.219 --> 00:03:20.580
he was trying to. No, no, this is a team up.

00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:22.800
Yeah, I know. Between Superman and Lex Luthor.

00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.120
But we've seen him as a good guy before, as a

00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.680
hero. So this could be cool. I like that. But

00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.280
could Superman start turning bad soon? They wouldn't

00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.300
ever do that, I don't think. I think they should.

00:03:36.580 --> 00:03:39.719
Zack Snyder was close. He did it for a split

00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:45.090
second there. Is that it? Tell me more. I ain't

00:03:45.090 --> 00:03:46.650
got nothing more on that subject. We're going

00:03:46.650 --> 00:03:48.889
one for one. Didn't you watch the whole interview?

00:03:49.330 --> 00:03:51.150
No, no, no. I've just heard snippets. I didn't

00:03:51.150 --> 00:03:55.210
listen to the whole thing. Speaking of James

00:03:55.210 --> 00:03:59.509
Gunn, the thing is he don't hide shit. He tells

00:03:59.509 --> 00:04:01.770
the fans. And the thing is it works because it

00:04:01.770 --> 00:04:04.409
amps people up to see it. He's passionate about

00:04:04.409 --> 00:04:09.770
it. He's fucking great at it. So when he says

00:04:09.770 --> 00:04:15.800
shit, he doesn't lie neither. They made the latest

00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:18.240
spot, not the latest spot, I mean, but No Way

00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:20.939
Home, where they're all like, oh, Tobey Maguire

00:04:20.939 --> 00:04:23.060
and Andrea Garfield. He probably would have just

00:04:23.060 --> 00:04:26.139
come out and said, shut up and wait. Or, yes,

00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:28.319
they are. Yeah. But he's come out and said that

00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:31.800
Millie Alcock as Supergirl is his best casting

00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:35.279
ever. I did hear that. My God. Really? She must

00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:36.939
knock it out of the park then, dude, because

00:04:36.939 --> 00:04:41.600
John Cena fucking kills it as Peacemaker. She

00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.579
was great in House of Dragon. I didn't watch

00:04:44.579 --> 00:04:47.540
it. But then again, you're putting it up against,

00:04:47.740 --> 00:04:54.279
dude, not Groot, Drax. Perfect casting in David

00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:58.459
Bautista, dude. Yep. I was going to say Michael

00:04:58.459 --> 00:05:01.860
Rooker as Yondu. Come on, dude. He's had some

00:05:01.860 --> 00:05:04.300
kick -ass casting. So to say that, that's pretty

00:05:04.300 --> 00:05:06.680
high bar. I mean, he puts Michael Rooker in a

00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:09.060
lot of shit though. Michael Rooker was in the

00:05:09.060 --> 00:05:13.319
last episode of Peacemaker. Well, yeah, as a

00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:16.660
Native American, holy shit. No, I don't think

00:05:16.660 --> 00:05:18.720
he's Native American. Was he? No. He had feathers

00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.519
in his hair. I think he dresses like one. I think

00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:25.459
that's the whole send -up. Yeah. So a rumour

00:05:25.459 --> 00:05:28.379
going around about Doomsday is that Dr Doom is

00:05:28.379 --> 00:05:33.699
going after people responsible for multiversal

00:05:33.699 --> 00:05:37.170
incursions. Ooh, that's a lot of people. Yeah,

00:05:37.170 --> 00:05:39.850
so you've got Monica Rambeau is still in the

00:05:39.850 --> 00:05:41.730
X -Men universe. That might be where the X -Men

00:05:41.730 --> 00:05:44.689
tie -in comes in. Which we've seen at the end

00:05:44.689 --> 00:05:48.449
of Marvel's. Yep, that's right. Steve Rogers

00:05:48.449 --> 00:05:51.949
stayed back with Peggy Carter. Which is why we

00:05:51.949 --> 00:05:54.730
could be getting Luke Cage's house. Yes. I couldn't

00:05:54.730 --> 00:05:56.089
think of anything off the top of my head, but,

00:05:56.110 --> 00:05:59.209
yeah, that's kind of his motivations apparently,

00:05:59.589 --> 00:06:01.790
allegedly. He's going to fuck Spider -Man up,

00:06:01.850 --> 00:06:06.089
dude. And strange, that was a massive incursion.

00:06:06.860 --> 00:06:12.000
But they also, at the Shanghai event that just

00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:16.160
happened with Disney, did you see that there

00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:18.600
was - The Doctor Doom light show. Doctor Doom

00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:20.480
light show, and he had the 10 rings, command

00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.600
of the 10 rings. Shang -Chi's. Shang -Chi or

00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:28.779
Shang -Chi? Shang -Chi. So, yeah, had his 10

00:06:28.779 --> 00:06:34.480
rings. But there was also a massive mural, and

00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:39.439
it was of Doctor Doom. Very comic accurate. Yes,

00:06:39.459 --> 00:06:42.199
I saw that. It looks really cool. So fucking

00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:44.480
cool. That light show too, there was actually

00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:50.160
a scene where he ripped out Thanos' spine. You

00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:51.959
were going to say that. That was the next one.

00:06:53.540 --> 00:06:56.300
But, dude, that looks – could you imagine him

00:06:56.300 --> 00:06:58.600
ripping Thanos? Well, Thanos was responsible

00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:00.500
for incursions too, so if there's a scene in

00:07:00.500 --> 00:07:02.819
there where he just rips out his spine, that's

00:07:02.819 --> 00:07:05.160
going to set the tone for this movie, dude. If

00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:07.740
they do that first up, that's going to set the

00:07:07.740 --> 00:07:11.439
entire tone for Doomsday as RDJ is not to be

00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.060
fucked with. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, the big bad just

00:07:15.060 --> 00:07:16.600
gets taken out like that. It would have been

00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:19.319
cool if he says, like, I'm going for the head

00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:22.899
and just goes. That'd be sick. Okay, have you

00:07:22.899 --> 00:07:26.139
seen that cell in the comics? It looks so cool.

00:07:26.300 --> 00:07:28.980
Doesn't it? Yeah. So, yeah, let's go. I'm down.

00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:32.500
The Doomsday script is apparently being rewritten

00:07:32.500 --> 00:07:36.629
on the fly. Mm -hmm. Not retaliation. Response.

00:07:36.750 --> 00:07:43.250
In response to Disney reorientating its focus

00:07:43.250 --> 00:07:48.430
audience. So less female fronted apparently.

00:07:48.629 --> 00:07:52.870
Right. Look, if it works, if it works to have

00:07:52.870 --> 00:07:55.829
a female superhero be so dominant that they're

00:07:55.829 --> 00:07:58.430
the front line, absolutely. But don't just force

00:07:58.430 --> 00:07:59.930
it down people's throat because it's going to

00:07:59.930 --> 00:08:04.500
piss off people of all genders. Whether they're

00:08:04.500 --> 00:08:07.379
there for anything. We've done it in the past

00:08:07.379 --> 00:08:09.860
and it was on the nose. It just wasn't right.

00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.240
It was a miss. You're 100 % right. Not that we

00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:15.120
don't want female -fronted characters. Not at

00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:19.279
all. We just want it done right. Yeah. There's

00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:22.980
a billion books out there that show that female

00:08:22.980 --> 00:08:25.279
characters and heroes are fucking powerful as

00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:27.529
shit. Fucking hell. Just don't. You don't have

00:08:27.529 --> 00:08:29.230
to spoon feed it to people and go, hey, you're

00:08:29.230 --> 00:08:32.450
stupid. Hey, look, they can do stuff. We know

00:08:32.450 --> 00:08:35.129
they can do stuff. We've read the books, bro.

00:08:35.389 --> 00:08:39.169
Just let them do their thing. 100%. James McAvoy

00:08:39.169 --> 00:08:50.889
has been absolutely clobbered at a bar in Canada

00:08:50.889 --> 00:08:55.330
after a red carpet. He went out for a beer or

00:08:55.330 --> 00:08:57.509
two and was absolutely cold -cocked, mate, knocked

00:08:57.509 --> 00:09:00.250
unconscious and left on the pub floor. Really?

00:09:00.509 --> 00:09:03.190
Mm -hmm. Did he have footage of it? I don't know.

00:09:03.309 --> 00:09:07.110
But he went to a film premiere of his latest

00:09:07.110 --> 00:09:09.950
movie, California Ski Man. Right. And then went

00:09:09.950 --> 00:09:12.710
to the pub after attending the premiere and,

00:09:12.730 --> 00:09:15.009
yeah, got absolutely molly -waffled. Dog -shotted.

00:09:15.169 --> 00:09:17.429
Mm -hmm. Yeah, right? Yeah. It was a coward punch.

00:09:18.129 --> 00:09:22.679
Wow. Which is pretty shit. It is shit. You want

00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:25.600
stars to be able to mingle with regular people.

00:09:25.779 --> 00:09:29.639
Absolutely. Why pull that shit? Yeah. Oh, sweet

00:09:29.639 --> 00:09:32.100
as. That means they're not going to go out after

00:09:32.100 --> 00:09:34.860
a premiere next time. Yeah, that's right. Did

00:09:34.860 --> 00:09:37.940
you see Vin Diesel's The Last Witch Hunter? Getting

00:09:37.940 --> 00:09:39.860
a sequel. Is getting a sequel after its popularity

00:09:39.860 --> 00:09:43.000
on streaming services. Well, dude, that is it.

00:09:43.059 --> 00:09:45.580
I liked it. Yeah. I enjoyed it. It flopped at

00:09:45.580 --> 00:09:48.399
the box office, but it was enjoyable enough.

00:09:48.620 --> 00:09:52.740
But, dude, that's like – If he gets a resurgence

00:09:52.740 --> 00:09:55.879
on streaming and it gets massive plays, I agree.

00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:59.299
Make a sequel out of it. He'll definitely bring

00:09:59.299 --> 00:10:01.419
back because he's really tight with Michael Caine.

00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:02.879
So Michael Caine's going to be in it as well.

00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:05.899
He's in negotiations at the moment. I think he's

00:10:05.899 --> 00:10:07.360
wheelchair bound at the moment, though, which

00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:10.320
is going to be a bit weird. Which is kind of

00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:12.820
sad. He's 90 or something. Yeah, he's up there.

00:10:12.899 --> 00:10:16.779
He's up there now. He's been around. I read today

00:10:16.779 --> 00:10:19.019
that South Park has pulled an episode from their

00:10:19.019 --> 00:10:21.929
upcoming. They had one where they were mocking

00:10:21.929 --> 00:10:25.210
Charlie Kirk and whether you agree with what

00:10:25.210 --> 00:10:27.590
he said or not, rest in peace, mate. It's pretty

00:10:27.590 --> 00:10:29.250
sad what happened in front of his family, but

00:10:29.250 --> 00:10:32.590
they've sort of pulled it off the airing for

00:10:32.590 --> 00:10:34.009
the next year anyway, so they're not going to

00:10:34.009 --> 00:10:37.590
share it with us. And apparently DC has pulled

00:10:37.590 --> 00:10:41.889
a comic, a Batman comic, Batwoman comic maybe,

00:10:42.029 --> 00:10:46.049
which took a dig at Charlie Kirk at one point.

00:10:46.210 --> 00:10:49.759
Right. So they've pulled its run as well. In

00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:52.659
response. And we're not, like we said, we don't

00:10:52.659 --> 00:10:54.820
really talk much politics on here, but the fact

00:10:54.820 --> 00:10:57.419
that it happened and his wife and kids were there,

00:10:57.500 --> 00:10:59.960
that's on the internet for the rest of time,

00:11:00.059 --> 00:11:02.820
dude. Yeah. And it's going to be, use the girls.

00:11:03.620 --> 00:11:05.259
This is not, it's going to follow him around

00:11:05.259 --> 00:11:06.820
for the rest of their life, man. So I feel for

00:11:06.820 --> 00:11:10.299
the family. Absolutely. I don't think we're left

00:11:10.299 --> 00:11:12.980
or right. No, not at all. I didn't agree with

00:11:12.980 --> 00:11:16.480
pretty much anything he said, but he didn't deserve

00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:21.240
that. No, no one does. No. Robert Eggers' Werewolf

00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:23.940
has started production today, well, yesterday,

00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.039
with Aaron Taylor -Johnson, Lily Rose Depp, and

00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:31.659
Willem Dafoe. Of course he's in it. Oh, yeah,

00:11:31.700 --> 00:11:34.580
yeah. I keep going to watch these movies, but

00:11:34.580 --> 00:11:36.960
I get stoned and think it's a great idea, and

00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:40.179
then I'm like, I start putting it on, and just

00:11:40.179 --> 00:11:41.960
the opening credits, I'm like, I'm too high for

00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:44.940
this. I have to turn it off. Yeah, no. Well,

00:11:45.019 --> 00:11:47.500
I mean, they're probably enjoyable, but I think

00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:49.799
you want to be clear for it. Yeah, dude. So I

00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:51.960
turned to other things that I already know, like,

00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:56.860
yeah, peacemaker. Or re -watching Ted Lasso for

00:11:56.860 --> 00:11:59.620
the 13th time, which my wife pointed out something

00:11:59.620 --> 00:12:02.539
to me today, which was out there. Right, yeah.

00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:06.740
The creator of Hannibal, the television series,

00:12:06.860 --> 00:12:10.299
has expressed that he wants to create a limited

00:12:10.299 --> 00:12:13.460
series based on Silence of the Lambs with Mads

00:12:13.460 --> 00:12:16.580
Mikkelsen. Yes. And Zendaya. Yes, please. Let's

00:12:16.580 --> 00:12:19.279
go. Hell yeah. Dude, the visuals in that show

00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:22.720
were incredible. Fuck yeah. Absolutely beautiful.

00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:25.519
Yeah, I'd love to see some more. Yeah. In that

00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:29.580
tone, absolutely. We re -watched the first season

00:12:29.580 --> 00:12:32.539
here the other week. Yep. Bro, it still holds

00:12:32.539 --> 00:12:34.779
up. It's a beautiful season of television. It's

00:12:34.779 --> 00:12:37.659
incredible. Fuck yeah. I loved it. Mads Mikkelsen.

00:12:39.470 --> 00:12:41.669
He killed that role. And whoever was cooking

00:12:41.669 --> 00:12:46.490
all that food, mate, Michelin star, son. It was

00:12:46.490 --> 00:12:48.210
good. If that was human, I wouldn't give a shit.

00:12:48.210 --> 00:12:51.509
I'd probably devour that. Tom Holland has said

00:12:51.509 --> 00:12:55.789
that he regularly has to get new suits made because

00:12:55.789 --> 00:13:02.409
they get really musty. Hot off the press. Screenshot.

00:13:02.570 --> 00:13:06.889
Oh, yeah. You got anything else for me, bud?

00:13:06.990 --> 00:13:11.929
I do. Jermon. Husu? Is that his name? No. I fucking

00:13:11.929 --> 00:13:15.769
don't know what you're saying. German Hounson?

00:13:15.889 --> 00:13:21.210
No, Germain. Germain? The African fella who was

00:13:21.210 --> 00:13:25.149
in both Captain Marvel and Guardians of the Galaxy.

00:13:25.149 --> 00:13:29.110
He's been in fucking heaps of shit. He had the

00:13:29.110 --> 00:13:34.129
- Hounso. Hounso, yeah. Who? Star -Lord, man.

00:13:34.610 --> 00:13:37.350
Yeah. Yes, yes. So he's recently been cast in

00:13:37.350 --> 00:13:40.710
Highlander alongside Henry Cavill, Russell Crowe,

00:13:40.769 --> 00:13:47.610
Karen Gillian and Dave Bautista. Good cast. Great

00:13:47.610 --> 00:13:49.990
cast. Dave Bautista is the Kirk and he's going

00:13:49.990 --> 00:13:52.169
to kill that role, man. Holy shit, he's going

00:13:52.169 --> 00:13:55.389
to smash that role. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. If

00:13:55.389 --> 00:14:00.350
you watch him in A Knock at the Cabin, you see

00:14:00.350 --> 00:14:03.220
that dude's range, man. He is hands down the

00:14:03.220 --> 00:14:05.679
best wrestler turned actor. I don't give a shit

00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:07.419
what anybody says. Everybody puts The Rock in

00:14:07.419 --> 00:14:10.779
number two. Fuck off. John Cena, hands down number

00:14:10.779 --> 00:14:14.120
two. And then The Miz. John Cena has seriously

00:14:14.120 --> 00:14:16.759
impressed me. Oh, dude, he's got chops. He's

00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:18.539
got chops. I haven't seen that. What was that

00:14:18.539 --> 00:14:25.120
comedy that fucking, the friend that he. Vacation?

00:14:25.399 --> 00:14:30.879
Friends Vacation? No, no, no, no. Jimmy. Vinicky

00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:33.200
or fucking, what was it called? Ricky Stinicky.

00:14:33.259 --> 00:14:36.659
Ricky Stinicky. Dude, watch it. Yeah, okay. You've

00:14:36.659 --> 00:14:37.940
got to watch that. But there's another one, Friends

00:14:37.940 --> 00:14:42.600
Vacation. Yep. There's a scene where he's just

00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:43.919
walking through the forest. He's like, do -do

00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:45.620
-do -do -do. And he goes, oh, look at these.

00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:47.460
Look at these mushrooms. And he hands it back

00:14:47.460 --> 00:14:49.679
to his mate behind him. He's this black comedian

00:14:49.679 --> 00:14:51.299
fellow. I can't remember his name. I've seen

00:14:51.299 --> 00:14:52.580
that scene, yeah. And he eats it. He goes, man,

00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:54.960
these things will take you places you've never

00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:58.080
been before. And almost like. What? And he goes,

00:14:58.220 --> 00:15:00.919
man, if you eat just one of these, you're fucked.

00:15:01.179 --> 00:15:02.799
And he's like, I just ate it. He goes, what?

00:15:02.860 --> 00:15:05.019
You ate it? And he's like, we're going in together.

00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:08.799
It's like, fuck yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he's impressed

00:15:08.799 --> 00:15:12.919
me. He's good. And yeah, that's all the news

00:15:12.919 --> 00:15:15.360
I have for this week. Well, like we were talking

00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:21.840
about earlier with streaming, the fact that Superman

00:15:21.840 --> 00:15:26.049
has gone to VOD. Video on demand. So you can

00:15:26.049 --> 00:15:29.230
rent it on Amazon, YouTube, all that sort of

00:15:29.230 --> 00:15:33.990
shit. Yep. It has made in three days $527 ,000

00:15:33.990 --> 00:15:38.070
just in VOD sales. VOD sales and rentals. Okay.

00:15:39.289 --> 00:15:43.129
So anyone that says it was a failure, you're

00:15:43.129 --> 00:15:45.590
wrong. Well, nobody said it was a failure. Oh,

00:15:45.590 --> 00:15:47.549
heaps of people said it did. People were saying

00:15:47.549 --> 00:15:50.029
it canned, it was shit, it was garbage. Really?

00:15:50.090 --> 00:15:51.929
Yeah, it failed at the box office and this. Nah.

00:15:52.590 --> 00:15:56.090
I mean, it didn't fail. It made its money. It

00:15:56.090 --> 00:15:58.509
didn't do no endgame money. No, no, no, no, no.

00:15:58.549 --> 00:16:01.950
Nothing. No, but then it narrowly missed out

00:16:01.950 --> 00:16:05.029
catching up to Man of Steel, which, you know.

00:16:05.070 --> 00:16:07.669
I think it was $28 ,000, which going off the

00:16:07.669 --> 00:16:09.289
VOD things, well, I don't know what Man of Steel

00:16:09.289 --> 00:16:12.789
made on VODs, but well, anyway, still a success.

00:16:12.990 --> 00:16:17.690
I don't think any DC property has done endgame.

00:16:18.230 --> 00:16:24.190
Nothing has. Wonder Woman 84 did okay. No, no,

00:16:24.250 --> 00:16:26.549
84, shit. No, no, no, Wonder Woman. Sorry, not

00:16:26.549 --> 00:16:28.370
Wonder Woman 84. I think Wonder Woman was one

00:16:28.370 --> 00:16:31.669
of the highest ones. Yeah, it was. Again, that

00:16:31.669 --> 00:16:33.149
was a great movie. It was good. It was really

00:16:33.149 --> 00:16:36.769
good. There's been photos of Tom Holland's day

00:16:36.769 --> 00:16:40.250
and Jacob Batalon on the set of Spider -Man Brand

00:16:40.250 --> 00:16:44.129
New Day, which goes to show me that Doctor Strange

00:16:44.129 --> 00:16:45.450
doesn't know what the fuck he's doing because

00:16:45.450 --> 00:16:50.830
they clearly remember him. Amazing. Just the

00:16:50.830 --> 00:16:54.769
immersion's gone. And that's the news I have

00:16:54.769 --> 00:16:57.090
for you today. Beautiful. We've got a few trailers

00:16:57.090 --> 00:16:59.129
to check out. We've got five actually. Five?

00:16:59.529 --> 00:17:01.330
Which one do you want to do? Why is there always

00:17:01.330 --> 00:17:04.990
horror? Why do people make more horrors than

00:17:04.990 --> 00:17:07.170
anything else? Everybody complains about, oh,

00:17:07.250 --> 00:17:10.009
fucking comic books, getting tired. Oh, we're

00:17:10.009 --> 00:17:12.410
getting fucking, what do they call it? Fatigue.

00:17:12.490 --> 00:17:15.839
Oh, superhero fatigue. We've watched more horror

00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:18.640
movie bloody trailers in this room than anything

00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:20.480
else that's ever been released. That's not a

00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:21.980
trailer. That's a short that I want us to watch.

00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:24.380
You're a piece of shit. Why is it all the shorts

00:17:24.380 --> 00:17:27.480
you want to show me are horror? Because horror's

00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:32.460
good. So Dust Bunny is the first one we're going

00:17:32.460 --> 00:17:40.539
to check out? Okay. Speak of the devil. What

00:17:40.539 --> 00:17:44.549
did you see? A chicken. A monster? You're fucked.

00:17:44.690 --> 00:17:47.029
I don't know what this is. Oh, clearly. Under

00:17:47.029 --> 00:17:50.069
my bed. What do your parents think about monsters?

00:17:50.750 --> 00:18:01.589
Do they believe in them? They do now. Is that

00:18:01.589 --> 00:18:04.089
enough to kill a monster? What makes you think

00:18:04.089 --> 00:18:06.990
I kill monsters? You seem like you killed all

00:18:06.990 --> 00:18:10.609
the things. She's gonna get caught up in bed.

00:18:13.390 --> 00:18:18.750
She believe in monsters. Hang on. You're a monster.

00:18:18.890 --> 00:18:26.690
She believe in you. A monster didn't need your

00:18:26.690 --> 00:18:31.950
parents. I just want you. Those were men. That

00:18:31.950 --> 00:18:39.890
came to kill me. In December. Jesus Christ. Why

00:18:39.890 --> 00:18:43.680
would a monster eat your family? Have you seen

00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:50.579
something you shouldn't have seen? I know what's

00:18:50.579 --> 00:18:53.160
real. You think you know. You think you know.

00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:03.119
Her being here won't stop them. They will go

00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:11.000
right through her. You seem triggered. You got

00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:23.289
the girl? I got the girl. Interesting. Bro, that

00:19:23.289 --> 00:19:28.730
looks sick. Yeah, like the… The lullaby in the

00:19:28.730 --> 00:19:32.869
background was sick. But the imagery of the sets

00:19:32.869 --> 00:19:34.650
and set pieces is what I was trying to spit out.

00:19:34.849 --> 00:19:38.769
I haven't heard of a book or a game or anything

00:19:38.769 --> 00:19:42.430
about Dust Bunny ever. If that's an original

00:19:42.430 --> 00:19:46.630
film, that looks sensational. Yeah, I'll be watching

00:19:46.630 --> 00:19:48.410
it. Well, it said from the mind of the guy that

00:19:48.410 --> 00:19:50.109
did Hannibal. Hannibal. That looks sensational.

00:19:50.809 --> 00:19:53.470
what does that say the rip so this is uh -huh

00:19:53.470 --> 00:19:56.609
so there's been some development we have a few

00:19:56.609 --> 00:20:02.250
more questions last time we spoke you described

00:20:02.250 --> 00:20:05.930
the job as follows your unit works the dope game

00:20:05.930 --> 00:20:12.430
drugs guns how you doing this evening five cops

00:20:12.430 --> 00:20:14.329
just magically appear on my doorstep i've been

00:20:14.329 --> 00:20:18.609
better you mind if we come inside But the majority

00:20:18.609 --> 00:20:21.250
of your work consisted of cash seizures. I don't

00:20:21.250 --> 00:20:23.109
have any drugs. The dog's not trained to detect

00:20:23.109 --> 00:20:30.089
drugs. The dog's trained to detect money. How

00:20:30.089 --> 00:20:35.009
much was the tip that came in? 300 grand. That's

00:20:35.009 --> 00:20:41.309
a 20 million dollar rip. It'd be so much easier

00:20:41.309 --> 00:20:43.450
if we just stole this money. I swear to God.

00:20:45.150 --> 00:20:46.910
You just take whatever money you want and walk

00:20:46.910 --> 00:20:49.349
away. Before this goes really bad for all of

00:20:49.349 --> 00:20:55.309
us. No one needs to die tonight. You have 30

00:20:55.309 --> 00:21:00.710
minutes to get out of that house. What we do

00:21:00.710 --> 00:21:05.490
right now and who we talk to matters. The longer

00:21:05.490 --> 00:21:07.089
we stick around here, the dicier this shit's

00:21:07.089 --> 00:21:10.470
gonna be. Tell me what's fucking going on! Do

00:21:10.470 --> 00:21:12.450
you think I want to jack this rip? I don't trust

00:21:12.450 --> 00:21:15.900
you right now and that's a fucking problem! Any

00:21:15.900 --> 00:21:18.440
ideas who might want this money? Twenty million

00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:33.819
dollars. Where do you want to start? A -W -T

00:21:33.819 --> 00:21:37.299
-G -G. What does it mean? Are we the good guys?

00:21:48.540 --> 00:21:52.559
I'll watch that. Bro, for $20 million. Holy shit.

00:21:53.240 --> 00:22:00.240
That badge would mean nothing to me. Sorry, but

00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:04.900
yeah, I'm not built to be a police officer. I

00:22:04.900 --> 00:22:06.960
can't read that. Wake up, dead man. Oh, the new

00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:08.519
Knives Out one. I haven't watched this. I've

00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:13.980
been waiting. Rian Johnson. His mood was dressed

00:22:13.980 --> 00:22:21.660
as a miracle. But what happened that night? There's

00:22:21.660 --> 00:22:32.859
a much, much larger scheme. To understand this

00:22:32.859 --> 00:22:36.119
case, you need to look at the myth that's being

00:22:36.119 --> 00:22:43.400
constructed. A man gives a sermon. He then, in

00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:46.839
plain sight of everyone, walks into a sealed

00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:51.609
concrete box. And 30 seconds later, that man

00:22:51.609 --> 00:22:58.369
is lying dead. A classic impossible crime. Okay,

00:22:58.430 --> 00:23:03.829
you're freaking me out now. This is a holy mystery.

00:23:05.190 --> 00:23:13.890
Unsolvable. Holy shit. Sorry, sorry. What the

00:23:13.890 --> 00:23:16.430
hell? He didn't even know that was him. We do

00:23:16.430 --> 00:23:18.990
not know. what is truth we don't know that we

00:23:18.990 --> 00:23:24.769
don't what exists does any of this exist so what

00:23:24.769 --> 00:23:31.309
is even happening right now it is time to discover

00:23:31.309 --> 00:23:42.259
what this flock of wicked wolves is hiding Here's

00:23:42.259 --> 00:23:43.720
what's going to happen. Them, Locke, Frickin'

00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:45.359
Blanc, and I are going to ask you all some questions,

00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:46.579
and you're going to answer them, and we're going

00:23:46.579 --> 00:23:48.279
to get to the bottom of who killed my senior

00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:55.259
wicks, and why! And then... That's it! Now, who

00:23:55.259 --> 00:24:09.000
wants to go first? Um... December! Dude, we're

00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:10.700
not going to be filming podcasts into seven.

00:24:10.819 --> 00:24:13.079
We're just going to be watching movies. Look,

00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:16.660
I'll always watch them. They're a good time.

00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:20.039
And I like Benoit Blanc. He's a good character.

00:24:20.660 --> 00:24:22.640
That's another Tron Aries trailer, isn't it?

00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:27.059
I'm glad we've got a table to hide my erection.

00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:58.839
Oh, yeah. Remember when Cessnock Cinema was the

00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:03.960
arcade? The grid. So good. A digital frontier.

00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:13.799
A world I thought I'd never see. And then...

00:25:13.799 --> 00:25:31.470
One day... 1982, baby. I got in. You're at these

00:25:31.470 --> 00:25:37.630
disc bouts of fucking spectacular arenas. I had

00:25:37.630 --> 00:25:41.049
Garrett Hiddens in the new one. Cycles have raced

00:25:41.049 --> 00:25:50.289
on ribbons of light. And the world was more beautiful

00:25:50.289 --> 00:25:56.750
than I ever dreamed. More dangerous than I ever

00:25:56.750 --> 00:26:11.079
imagined. will come to ours. Holy shit, that's

00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:14.819
come quick. So much talk of AI and big tech today.

00:26:15.500 --> 00:26:17.279
Virtual worlds, what are they gonna look like?

00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:21.339
When will we get there? Well, folks, we're not

00:26:21.339 --> 00:26:29.400
going there. They are coming here. I would like

00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:38.720
you to meet Ares. What did you make of it? Up

00:26:38.720 --> 00:26:47.660
there. Greetings, program. Our worlds are more

00:26:47.660 --> 00:27:10.509
connected than anyone knows. to destroy yours.

00:27:54.240 --> 00:27:59.279
They looked a little off. Yeah, I agree. That

00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:03.160
soundtrack sounds killer. I'll watch it. I thoroughly

00:28:03.160 --> 00:28:06.559
enjoyed the last one. This one is Last Samurai

00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:10.039
Standing. I think I've seen this one pop up the

00:28:10.039 --> 00:28:16.980
other day. Netflix man churning out a gallop.

00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:30.799
From now on, you will play with me. I won't ask

00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:34.299
you for a way out. We'll take each other's cards!

00:29:21.390 --> 00:29:23.369
And the last one is? Nope, don't start that yet.

00:29:23.390 --> 00:29:27.130
That's for later on. Later on. Okay. But, yeah,

00:29:27.230 --> 00:29:30.049
that's all of our news. That's all of our trailers

00:29:30.049 --> 00:29:34.589
for this week. That last samurai one, I'll give

00:29:34.589 --> 00:29:36.829
it a go. If it is a series, I'll give it one

00:29:36.829 --> 00:29:38.549
episode. I usually give things an episode. If

00:29:38.549 --> 00:29:40.069
it intrigues me a little bit, I'll keep watching.

00:29:43.569 --> 00:29:47.029
I am. Dude, the one I'm most excited for was

00:29:47.029 --> 00:29:48.289
the one I thought I was going to hate the most.

00:29:48.490 --> 00:29:50.730
Dust Bunny. Dust Bunny, man. That looks so good.

00:29:50.910 --> 00:29:53.630
Yeah. And honestly, I'll watch Mads Mikkelsen

00:29:53.630 --> 00:29:56.329
in anything, but that looks so good, man. Yeah,

00:29:56.349 --> 00:29:57.769
well, that's why I made it at the top of my list

00:29:57.769 --> 00:30:00.450
to kind of put on tonight. Absolutely. Mads Mikkelsen,

00:30:00.529 --> 00:30:05.269
