From the dungeons of Morningstar, my name's Stretch,
and I'm Clint, and this is Prevailing Strange.
G'day guys and welcome to Pop Culture News with
Prevailing Strange, where we get to check out
some of the latest trailers that have dropped
this week, and talk about some of the things
that have crossed our feeds. If you like what
we're doing here guys, please like, comment,
subscribe, share us around. But pretty funny
to watch. Give us a go. Appreciate it. What news
have you got for me this week, buddy? I don't
know why I put my phone down because that's where
my news is. Breaking news. Cessnock Council admits
that Wollombi Road upgrade contract has been
axed after being telling us for the last three
months that it wasn't. They've lied. Thanks,
Cessnock City Council. Appreciate you. In other
news, Johnny Knoxville has had to, I think I
said that last week, didn't I? Johnny Knoxville.
Has had to limit his. No, you didn't say that.
Oh, okay. Well, he's had to limit his appearance
in the new Jackass movie to five stunts because
of all the concussions that he has taken. The
big one that really pushed him over was that
bull one from Jackass Forever where he landed
on his dome. That was the one. That was the one.
He's had a hard life. Dude, that kid has copped
some hits. Oh, yeah. I saw he was on Joe Rogan
the other day. Oh, yeah. I haven't watched that
yet. Yeah, I've only seen the clip. And he said,
like, he goes to therapy and stuff like that.
But the one thing that I'll let a touch in therapy
is why he does the stunts. Oh, shit. Yeah, right.
He's like, I don't want to unpack that. It's
fucking, it's part of my fucking whatever. Fucking
fair enough. Yeah. Okay. So the Russo brothers
have commented on Chris Evans coming back as
Steve Rogers, Captain America. Or Hydra. Their
exact wording was he's a central role to the
Avengers and the larger narrative of what the
MCU has been. And it's something personal to
them. And we can't see this narrative going forward
without him. Okay. He's going to be playing a
central role in Doomsday. Would it be pivotal?
I don't know. Dude, I don't care. Keep him there.
He's great. Honestly, who'd they have up as?
They released a heap of photos the other day
of people who they wanted as Captain America.
There were some fucking kick -ass people on that
list. When he was first cast, I'm like, oh, dude,
he's boring as shit. But, dude, he nails Captain
America. Yeah. Fucking nails him. We all know
that She -Hulk was a raving success on Disney+.
Everybody loved it. Well, she's been recast.
There is rumours. I've seen this. Mary Elizabeth
Winstead, who was in one of the greatest movies
of all time, Madam Web. No, she wasn't. She was.
Scott Pilgrim versus the world. Yeah. And Madam
Webb. Was she? I think so, yeah. No, that was
Dakota Johnson. Oh, hang on. Let me have a look.
No, she wasn't. I think she was. Unless she was
a state. If she wasn't, I'm wrong and I accept
full responsibility for being wrong. You don't
think she was Madam Webb, do you? No, not at
all. No, I was completely wrong. Yeah. Yeah,
completely wrong. She wasn't in at all. No. She
was in something else. What was she in? There's
been heaps of stuff. No, no. She was in Cloverfield
Lane. That's, dude, that was such a good movie.
I enjoyed it, yeah. It was good. Dude, I really
liked that. I thought it was good. Yeah. Fondness
and Theory, Gemini Man, Leifredo Hard, Death
Proof. Oh, she was in Death Proof. I forgot about
that. Oh, The Thing. The Thing remake. I re -watched
that the other day. That's where I recognised
her from. There you go. Oh, and Birds of Prey.
She was, yeah. She was in Birds of Prey. That's
where I... What other common book property she
was out of? Sorry, I forgot. But yeah, dude,
she, I reckon, yeah, give her a go. Yeah, I think
she'd do well in the role. I loved her in Scott
Pilgrim, dude. Oh, yeah. Such a good movie. That's
a great movie. Such a great movie. We really
could have got a whole universe out of that.
I haven't watched the animated series yet. Yeah.
With the same actors as voice actors here. It
was pretty good. I didn't mind it. Very. Very
basically animated like the comic was. Yeah.
But, dude, yeah, had the whole cast come back
and it was good. Good fun. That's sick. The 25
-year anniversary re -release of Lord of the
Rings grossed close to $11 million. Is that all?
In the past weekend. Cool. That's for a re -release,
my dude. Some movies don't make that in their
first weekend as their official release. Awesome
source. Joe Rogan got 5 million views. Doesn't
matter. I don't care. I just don't. Alfred Molina
will return as Doc Ock in Avengers Doomsday.
That's a rumour as well. Yeah, I know. You shouldn't
preface these with rumours. Well, it doesn't
say rumours. It's reportedly set to face off.
So whoever's reporting that, I don't know. And
I've got one more bit of news, but I'm going
to jump in because I've been so excited for this,
I'm going to fucking peep at the post for it.
A script for... No. No, this is my last bit of
news. Ruder. Yeah, I know. The script for Jamie
Foxx's Spawn movie has finally been completed.
Finally, dude. Now, this has been in fucking
limbo for the last six years. Yeah, yeah. Because
I follow, oh, my God. I follow Seth MacFarlane
on Instagram, and he was attached to write and
direct it at one point. And he was passionate
about his character, of course. But he was so
fucking pumped and just so excited for it. But
just as it was going further and further, he's
like, oh, you know, am I the reason why it's
getting held up? I'll step away from it as a
director. So he'd still be as a consultant for
the writing process and the production of it,
all that sort of shit. But he sort of stepped
away as a director. But it's still being in hell.
And then Jamie Foxx nearly died. Thanks, Diddy.
Well done, Diddy. Is that why? They reckon, yeah,
Diddy poisoned him. Jamie Foxx was one of the
first ones to kind of bring that whole thing
to the light. I did not know. Holy shit. Yeah.
Hold on, Diddy, you fucking nonce. But that's
all the news I've got. But so the script has
been said to be raw, vicious, steeped in horror,
a descent into hellfire, rage and vengeance with
zero interest in playing it safe. There is no
jokes, no shine, just darkness that the genre
really dares to embrace. I remember when it first
came out they were talking about it and they
were talking about him being more like the boogeyman
and not kind of being the lead. Like, yeah, him
being the shadow in the dark and, like, having
a bit of him but the main character's not being
spawned. I don't know how I feel about that.
Sorry, Jeremy, I don't. I don't mind it. It would
be different and cool. Like fucking lean into
that mystique. Yeah, I think we need, there needs
to be more Spawn. Legit, dude. There needs to
be a Spawn video game or a Spawn fucking TV show.
Fucking give me some more Spawn. Jesus Christ.
You see, there he is. I know. Gay boy. Almost
Spawn books don't fit down here. Season two of
Daredevil. Born Again comes out in six weeks.
Something about that too. Fuck, that's come quick.
Much like me. Yeah, six weeks. Well, as of when
this episode will be released. Rumours have it
that Marvel's next saga will feature two Wolverines.
I'm not mad. We'll get a new younger version.
I'm not mad. And Hugh Jackman will return as
Old Man Logan. I reckon they should do that in
this next. couple of Avengers movies. Don't have
a standalone Wolverine movie where you palm off
the torch. Have, because we're not going to have
a multiverse after Secret Wars. So maybe have
them introduced there and then maybe kill off
Hugh Jackman's Wolverine and then have a Wolverine
prime again. And then just have a Wolverine prime
and that'd be the team moving forward. That way
you don't have to do that reboot where they've
got to have their own movie, you've got to introduce
them. Pretend that the last one didn't exist,
yeah. Exactly. They could just, you know, get
claws and ching. I saw something and I didn't
look into it yet, but I'm going to mention it
anyway because we're just letting things fly.
Apparently in the X -Men teaser, well, not teaser,
snippet, whatever they call them, story or whatever
it is for Doomsday, There's a light flicking
and somebody says the Morse code says Hope. Now,
who's Hope? Van Dyne? No. The daughter of Scott
Summers. Is it? Yes. Who looks pretty upset at
the end of that little trailer. And there's a
whole kind of connection with Franklin Richards.
Love, the adopted daughter of... Thor, who in
his little teaser thing, he's talking about returning
back to his daughter. What would make James Marsden's
Cyclops that angry? Maybe his daughter's been
taken. Right. So you reckon? Is Doom collecting
all their fucking kids? Well, I mean, the end
of Fantastic Four, when he's with Franklin. I
just got goosebumps from my lower extremities.
Is he attacking them at the hearts of their families,
all these people that have caused incursions?
Dude, that'd be cool. Just this is what we're
doing. We're not going to let him be a good guy
in the end. He's not going to be a bad guy that
turns good. We're going to have him killing kids.
It's going to show you how fucked up Doom is.
So the last one was the Black Panther. Who was
introduced at the end of Wakanda Forever. Yeah.
They're all kids involved. Well, not anymore,
because by the time we get to... Well, he's the
child of a hero. You're right, yeah. Because
he'll be like 18 or something. Yeah. Interesting.
That could be dark as shit. Just Doom going around
killing everyone's kids. Not even if he kills
them. I don't think he's killing them. It'd be
funny if he did, though. Taking them to turn
them against their parents. That's even more
dark. Oh, God, that's good news. So Sinners makes
Oscar history. Yeah. Beat Lord of the Rings,
didn't it? With the most nominations for any
film. Fucking Lord of the Rings. And as the Oscars
are coming up, the nominations for the best film
of the year are Begonia. Okay. F1. I heard great
things. Haven't watched it yet. Frankenstein.
Ooh. Hamnet, which is getting a lot of buzz at
the moment. Never heard of it. It's the one based
on Shakespeare. Oh, yeah? Okay. Mighty Supreme.
Okay. One Battle After Another. Dude, heard great
things. The Secret Agent. Never heard of it.
No, never. Sentimental Value. Never heard of
it. That was the one with... Who was the actor?
It's an older dude. He's been in a lot of stuff.
Can't remember who it is. Serious actor. Younger
chick. Anyway. Sinners and Train Dreams, which
is getting a lot of buzz as well. Supposed to
be really good. That's the one with the Aussie
fella. That's his name. Was in the Apple TV series
not long ago. Based on the book. Shit. Joel Edgerton.
No, not Joel Edgerton. Joel Edgerton is an Australian
dude. He is Joel Edgerton. Well done, Jeremy.
Yeah, Train Dreams. I've heard a lot of people
say it's really good. It's not really a movie
I'd go watch, I think, but it's like kind of
frontiers kind of. Yeah. See, now I've watched.
I've watched nearly every one of Leonardo DiCaprio's
movies. I've watched him do some insane shit.
I can't believe they gave him an Academy Award,
his first Academy Award for The Revenant. That
was not his strongest fucking movie ever. Oh,
man. It was good and weren't fucking great. It
was nowhere near a fucking Django Unchained.
Yeah, but that's not his lead role. He wasn't
a lead role. That doesn't matter. No, I'm talking
about Oscars, full stop. Yeah. Why didn't he
get an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in that
fucking movie? Because he was sensational in
it. I don't know what nominated that year. Dude,
he didn't get one for Wolf of Wall Street. Are
you fucking kidding me? He didn't get Titanic.
It was boring as shit. Don't tell Rachel I said
that. But he wasn't good in that. He wasn't a
good actor in that movie, but it was one of his
fucking earlier roles. But, dude, he's been in
so many fucking great movies where he should
have got a nod, and he didn't. And then they
gave it to him for that because they had to.
Because he was just making good shit. 2013 Oscar
nominees. Should have got one for Inception even.
Fuck off. Tommy Lee Jones for Lincoln. Alan Arkin
for Argo. Robert De Niro for Silver Linings Playbook.
Philip Seymour Hoffman for The Master. Christopher
Waltz for Django Unchained. Christoph Waltz got
nominated and fucking Leo didn't. Who won, Christoph?
Waltz. Of course he did. The guy was amazing.
That's fucked. Fucked. He wasn't in it long,
though. That don't matter. That don't matter.
I don't give a shit how long you're in that movie
for. To do as well as he did was fucking insane.
You hated him, dude. I think Waltz was a better
character, though. I loved Christoph Waltz in
that movie. Everything down to the way he spoke.
But that's just how he speaks. So he wasn't really
acting at all. Leo was acting. Was he? No, he
wasn't. Wow. There was not a 17 -year -old girl
anywhere there. They were all over that age,
so he was acting. Acting, acting. True. But even
like you sit there and we're rambling on. That's
all we've got for the news today, guys. We're
going to watch some trailers now. We are. We'll
talk more about this in Renton Sundry. You'll
have to tune back in on Friday for that. No,
we won't because it's part two of the end of
year special. You're going to have to wait forever
because that's not getting spoken about today.
Okay. First trailer is now me and my friend Stretcher,
we watched this last night. No, we didn't. More.
I thought that was Star Wars. No, no, no. Why
is it going to get a one here? Times have changed.
I will show you the galaxy for what it truly
is. See things from a new perspective. Is this
what our future holds? Always running. I invite
you to look more closely. What are we dealing
with? Good question. And I offer you an opportunity.
We have all been made to suffer. We survive.
Is that a movie or a series? Movie. Let's go.
They better have Sam Witwer as the voice of Maul.
We know it's not going to be Ray Park. The next
one is, we're going to leave Master Universe
to last. The Dreadful? Yeah, let's go with that.
Rated R. Violence, bloody images, sexual racism.
This is a time of war. Evil is not always obvious.
It's bad to say that, but she was... Demons walk
the earth in the shape of men. Let's just say
God is good. Thank you. Won't you miss it? She
has plenty. We have nothing. Yago! Hello, aunt.
Back from Tewksbury? Are the wars over then?
Over for me. Where is my husband? They enjoyed
the fight. They killed him. The war is on. It's
not coming back. All that matters is that we
survive. Don't you know you shouldn't be walking
alone here? I shouldn't walk with a man who's
not my husband. It's your brother you sick bitch.
We can't afford such beautiful gifts. Who else
knows you've returned from your travels? You
are but the first. Oh, no. Cousins. Where have
you been? You know I'd die without you. You must
be very cautious not to give in to Zinn. He's
not really there. I want you. Leave Earth. Come
live with me. Stay with me and you'll have nothing
to fear. I'm hungry all the time for things that
I have lost. Our lives are ours to live. You
cannot abandon your duty to me. Lights of hell
will come from you. Hell is real. She's trying
to scare you. They will pull you down to hell.
Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Interesting. Glad you think so,
pal. Heal! Yeah, I don't know about this. You
picked it. Do you think I could play with Tommy
soon? Oh, nah, he's in it. One more for it. Maybe
not just yet. I know it may look unconventional.
Believe me, we won't be keeping him there for
long. Tommy's going through a rebellious phase.
I'm gonna obliterate you the second I get out
of here! It's quite impressive, really, how you've
managed to aimlessly float through your whole
life completely unnoticed. You're scared, aren't
you? Would you think all of this is funny? This
is real life. You're already dead, you scum!
We treat each other with respect. Bad boy! Bad
boy! Bad boy! Bad boy! Bad boy! I would like
to apologize for what I did to you. I promise
not to do it again. Good boy. Fear always brings
self -destruction. Open your mind and invite
progress. Progress. I think it's time. Progress.
See it as a sign of our trust in you and the
progress you've made. Which is better? What is
happening? We're dealing with sober reality.
Life's sick sometimes. It's your only chance
to get out your head. I know someone else used
to live here. What did you do to him? It's not
him. I'm super proud of you, son. You protected
this family today. You're not my family. This
isn't real. I'm going to watch the fuck out of
that movie, eh? That looks good. It's different.
That's Stephen Graham, dude. Fuck, he's just
a great actor. Have you watched him in Adolescence
yet? No, I don't think I will. Bro, heavy. But
holy shit, he's just so good in it. And he wrote,
directed and produced it. The death of Robin
Hood. Would you like to know a secret? He's got
huge acumen in him, doesn't he? People speak
of Robin Hood. Tell his stories. They're all
lies. He was not a hero. You were a murderous
brigand. We were monstrous. I am the outlaw.
I owe you an apology. You begged for me to let
you die. What's your name? Mary Magdalene. Dude,
I would sell my life not to live in that house.
Can you make for me? Want me to make you a ball?
Did you say Mary Magdalene, you fucking monk?
Mary Magdalene. No. What the fuck are you? What
happened to her? Who's Robin Hood? Terrible critics.
Get out of fucking bed, mate. Mary Magdalene
is who Jesus Christ was shagging, you fucking
idiot. Wow. Jesus, mum. What was her name? Mary
Magdalene. No. Robin Hood's business. No, I know
his name was Robin of Loxley. It's a curse. Maid
Marian. You fucking idiot. Wendy! Wendy sells
coffee and ice cream. That arrow ain't gonna
fly nowhere. I'll keep you safe. I will keep
you safe. I don't know, they're all made up stories.
That's fucking... That's Wolverine. That's Logan.
Logan. Oh, a girl. I'm dying. Quick. I better
do this and teach you how to do all the things
that I did. And then I'm going to die. Fuck off.
Come on, Hugh. You're better than that. I don't
know. Mary Magdalene. This guy. She's got one
story mixed up with another one. Yeah, one that's
real and one that's fake. Mark, take a night
off. We don't get to take a night off. If I'd
actually killed Angstrom the first time, so many
people would still be alive. I'll do anything
to stop that from happening again. It's not who
you are, Mark. But trauma like that... breaks
people. Things are changing, Mark, and not for
the better. Oh, God. We'll figure this out, okay?
We need to show the world that even after everything
that happened... The Guardians are still here,
fighting to keep everyone safe. Come on! From
what might be coming our way. Oh, shit! I'm sorry,
Mark. We need your help. How do you feel about
war? The Viltrumites will always be a threat
to Earth. But each day, we add more allies. to
break their hold on the galaxy. Together, we
have a chance to end this war forever. I can
help. How much does this job pay? No tricks this
time. How do I know you're telling the truth?
You'll have to trust me. There will be loss.
There will be sacrifice. I'm sorry. We must all
face judgment for the evils of our past. If we
want any hope to change our future. This is serious,
Shapesmith. This is fruit punch. Would you like
some? Is everyone ready? Yes! We stick together.
That's how we win this. Leave no one alive. You
know who's voicing him? No. Lee Pace. Yeah, right.
Okay. Dude, my favourite voice in that, and he's
no longer in it, was Rex. I love the dude who
fucking plays Rex. He was like Pam in Bad Grandpa
and he was Agent Pimento in Brooklyn Nine -Nine.
Fucking hilarious. Will you stop doing that?
You made it. This is it. The last one. Masters
of the Universe. I grew up on this shit, dude.
All that stuff that only exists in legends and
bedtime stories. Looks so good. Talking tigers,
spaceships, and magic swords that can make a
man as mighty as a god. Where I come from, that
stuff is real. Let's go, Adam. Why did you send
me away? I wanted you to be safe. So I sent you
to a place I knew that they'd never find you.
There is. This obsession with nerd stuff and
sword things, it's not a good look for human
resources. I know it sounds crazy, but that sword
is gonna show me the way home. You can't do that.
Don't worry. The sword's mine. Hang on. It's
about to get weird. Wally cat. Let's go. What
am I supposed to do? Take the sword. Fuck. Fuck.
Dude, that looks so fucking good. Yeah. It does
look fun. Hell yeah. Man, I hope Voltron is going
to be kind of his... Like that? What, not familiar?
Kind of. What's the word I'm looking for? Yeah,
I like that. How do you mean? Faithful to the
source material. All right. Mm -hmm. Fair enough.
That costume, I didn't think he'd wear like the
actual barbarian kind of get up. I didn't think
he'd wear the pink shirt. Fucking well done.
But, dude, that's what I'm loving. Like you sit
there and you watch the original X -Men. They're
just in black and yellow leather. No. Fuck, dude,
this is where it's at, where they're finally
going, hang on a minute, we can make this work.
Yeah. People will still go see it. Yes, we will.
Fucking hell. 100%. 100%. Oh, yeah. I just rogue.
We need that angle. Dude, really need that angle.
You know what we're talking about. Come on, Kevin.
Put it down there. That's all the news I have
for you, my friend. Thank you for joining us,
