WEBVTT

00:00:01.780 --> 00:00:03.540
You know what that sound means? It's another

00:00:03.540 --> 00:00:06.259
episode of Game for a Movie, where we ask, are

00:00:06.259 --> 00:00:08.199
you game for a movie? I am your host, Mike. I

00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:12.220
am joined by... Jill. Andre. Claire. Claire!

00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:15.839
It's a rare Claire sighting. It is a rare Claire

00:00:15.839 --> 00:00:19.280
sighting. We are all together, which is another

00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:22.399
weird thing, because... It feels like it's been

00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:24.940
a while. It has been a hot minute. Yeah. And

00:00:24.940 --> 00:00:27.359
especially, it's been a while with this podcasting.

00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:30.260
Yes. We have been a little distracted with some

00:00:30.260 --> 00:00:32.920
stuff in life, which is okay. Scheduling conflicts,

00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:35.259
et cetera, et cetera. Exactly. Work happens.

00:00:35.579 --> 00:00:38.299
But we're drinking. We are. What are you drinking,

00:00:38.340 --> 00:00:42.200
Jill? Well, it is the second to last day of Passover,

00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:45.380
so I am not imbibing any beer. My little workaround

00:00:45.380 --> 00:00:47.460
is I just went straight for the hard liquor,

00:00:47.579 --> 00:00:52.619
and I'm having a Hurricane made for me by Andre.

00:00:52.899 --> 00:00:55.740
That's right. I know it has overproof rum. Yeah.

00:00:56.060 --> 00:00:58.079
And why don't you walk us through? So it's just

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:00.159
two types of rum in there, and I, by accident,

00:01:00.219 --> 00:01:02.479
used the same distillery. It's Plantation. You

00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:05.359
got an ounce of overproof dark rum and an ounce

00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:09.560
of Plantation five -year rum. It's good. If you've

00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:12.299
had a Hurricane in New Orleans... You're probably

00:01:12.299 --> 00:01:15.120
recoiling with the memory of you vomiting it

00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:18.359
up in a corner. At Patio B's. Making one at home

00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.959
is much, much better. You guys can't see it,

00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:26.280
but Claire is slipping laundry off. I mean, I

00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.859
hardly think that... I don't think our crowd

00:01:28.859 --> 00:01:31.319
knows that story, Claire. Well, no, but I also

00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:33.219
think that... Just know if you're ever in New

00:01:33.219 --> 00:01:35.959
Orleans and you go to Patrick O 'Brien's, which

00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:38.079
claims to be home of the hurricane, there's a

00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:40.459
corner in there that you can take a picture and

00:01:40.459 --> 00:01:42.519
know that that's... where Claire vomited. No,

00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:46.379
it wasn't a corner, it was the bar. Likely thousands

00:01:46.379 --> 00:01:48.739
of other people, let's be real, every year probably

00:01:48.739 --> 00:01:50.159
vomit out of it. Every inch of that place has

00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:51.620
been vomited out. It's been coated in vomit.

00:01:51.739 --> 00:01:54.140
Yep. It's true. We're off to a great start. We

00:01:54.140 --> 00:01:56.680
are. We've become bomb cops. So yeah. Oh my god.

00:01:57.260 --> 00:01:59.120
Anyways, that hurricane, I like that recipe a

00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:00.719
lot. It's a great hurricane. I cripped it from

00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:03.200
Anders Ericsson on YouTube. Oh, we love Anders.

00:02:03.540 --> 00:02:05.640
Good cocktail guy. He's a Chicago guy. He's a

00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.169
Chicago guy. Love Chicago guys. Yep. All right.

00:02:08.250 --> 00:02:11.930
Cool. I also went ahead and made myself a cocktail.

00:02:11.930 --> 00:02:14.210
It's a La Louisiane. It's another New Orleans

00:02:14.210 --> 00:02:16.330
drink. What was that? La Louisiane. You didn't

00:02:16.330 --> 00:02:18.610
push up your glasses, hold your pinky up. Yeah,

00:02:18.629 --> 00:02:20.949
you know, pinky out. Oui, oui. Oui, oui. Well,

00:02:21.129 --> 00:02:23.129
is that Cajun? That doesn't seem very Cajun.

00:02:23.650 --> 00:02:26.669
Yeah, it's a New Orleans cocktail with a lot

00:02:26.669 --> 00:02:29.310
of whiskey in it. It's very nice. Nice. And I

00:02:29.310 --> 00:02:32.449
like it. And as my second drink, I got... On

00:02:32.449 --> 00:02:36.830
deck, an acronym, a brewing beer. Acronym is

00:02:36.830 --> 00:02:38.909
from a local craft brewery in Akron. It's the

00:02:38.909 --> 00:02:41.530
Windigo. It's a double red IPA. Is it Windigo

00:02:41.530 --> 00:02:44.490
or Windigo? Windigo. Windigo. Yeah, Windigo.

00:02:44.669 --> 00:02:46.770
I would say Windigo. I'd say Windigo. Double

00:02:46.770 --> 00:02:49.009
red IPA. Good stuff. Heard people say Windigo.

00:02:49.449 --> 00:02:51.689
Never heard Windigo. It's probably a supernatural

00:02:51.689 --> 00:02:54.090
reference. Maybe. I feel like I've heard. They

00:02:54.090 --> 00:02:56.090
definitely had a Wendigo in Supernatural. It

00:02:56.090 --> 00:02:57.969
was the second episode. Yeah, we watched the

00:02:57.969 --> 00:03:00.330
episode. I saw that episode. And, like, I've

00:03:00.330 --> 00:03:02.289
been obsessed with the Wendigo. Actually, it's

00:03:02.289 --> 00:03:05.430
really something that I love as a creature of

00:03:05.430 --> 00:03:08.090
lore and everything like that. If you want to

00:03:08.090 --> 00:03:10.590
pour this guy, you're welcome. Huh? If you want

00:03:10.590 --> 00:03:12.930
to pour this guy. Maybe. We'll see what happens.

00:03:13.050 --> 00:03:14.770
I'll get the taster for you. Depending on your

00:03:14.770 --> 00:03:19.629
folklore, Wendigo is a... Spirit that comes about

00:03:19.629 --> 00:03:23.509
when people resort to cannibalism in a gruesome

00:03:23.509 --> 00:03:27.229
way and they cling to life but barely and they

00:03:27.229 --> 00:03:30.090
transform. It has roots with American Aboriginal.

00:03:30.289 --> 00:03:33.889
Yes, it's very northern. There's a lot of American.

00:03:33.969 --> 00:03:35.909
There's Canadian. There's two different myths

00:03:35.909 --> 00:03:38.050
of it, but it's all basically the same thing

00:03:38.050 --> 00:03:41.449
of cannibalism. There's the spirit and then there's

00:03:41.449 --> 00:03:44.569
the idea as well. Not a spirit per se, but a

00:03:44.569 --> 00:03:48.340
changing of the human. So, yeah. It's also been

00:03:48.340 --> 00:03:52.020
known as long pig. Long pig? Yes. Long pig. The

00:03:52.020 --> 00:03:54.500
idea is like they get longer and their bones...

00:03:54.500 --> 00:03:59.139
Like a werepig. Yeah. Anyways, this beer is good.

00:03:59.259 --> 00:04:01.500
This beer is tasty. The only thing it makes me

00:04:01.500 --> 00:04:04.099
hungry for is the company of good friends. Aww.

00:04:04.830 --> 00:04:08.110
So you can eat them? Don't eat us. And that ends

00:04:08.110 --> 00:04:12.590
the cryptids. We're not staying for dinner anymore.

00:04:13.289 --> 00:04:16.529
You are the dinner. Last time I come on this

00:04:16.529 --> 00:04:18.870
podcast. Got some fava beans and a nice bottle

00:04:18.870 --> 00:04:23.670
of Chianti. Oh my god. Claire, what are you drinking

00:04:23.670 --> 00:04:26.389
over there? I'm drinking a long drink. Long pick?

00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:31.279
No. Long drink. Can't see the side I am giving.

00:04:31.500 --> 00:04:36.120
I can hear it. It's good. It tastes like a Fresca

00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:38.959
if you've ever had one. What is the main alcohol

00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:43.000
in it? Gin. Gin. It's like a can mixed gin drink

00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.920
that tastes like Fresca. White, very refreshing.

00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.720
Gluten free and zero sugar according to that

00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:51.420
white one there. Yeah, this one. They have different

00:04:51.420 --> 00:04:53.560
cans for different things. Move over the heart.

00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:56.500
It's nice. It's balanced. It's good. Most of

00:04:56.500 --> 00:04:57.980
those canned cocktails are candy sweet, but that's

00:04:57.980 --> 00:05:01.100
really good. Well, I have two beers here. I will

00:05:01.100 --> 00:05:02.680
start with my backup first because I want to

00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:06.860
save the one for next. I was working a couple

00:05:06.860 --> 00:05:09.600
weeks for trivia at Black Pond Brews, so I brought

00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:12.220
one of theirs. Connecticut. Connecticut. It's

00:05:12.220 --> 00:05:15.040
an hour and a half away from our house. So it's

00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:17.160
a great spot. I do love it a lot. I don't mean

00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:19.860
to shit on it because the drive is just miserable.

00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:22.240
But this is their Tears of Amber, Amber Ale.

00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:25.930
It's very good. We will... We'll do some tasters

00:05:25.930 --> 00:05:27.790
probably of that because it is very good. It

00:05:27.790 --> 00:05:30.810
is good. The big one that I have because I saved

00:05:30.810 --> 00:05:34.750
it for this podcast. Broadbrook Brewing Company

00:05:34.750 --> 00:05:38.069
has a series of beers called the Gigawatt Series.

00:05:38.629 --> 00:05:41.949
All of them are based on... Back to the Future.

00:05:42.170 --> 00:05:44.949
So the first one they had was a gigawatts special

00:05:44.949 --> 00:05:47.930
double IPA that was delicious. I'm sure. This

00:05:47.930 --> 00:05:51.829
is a triple IPA called Flux Capacitor. I can't

00:05:51.829 --> 00:05:56.009
try it, but I want it. Oh my god. Wow. The first

00:05:56.009 --> 00:05:58.930
taste, and I knew I was in trouble. What's the

00:05:58.930 --> 00:06:00.970
ABV on that? I asked because I want it to be

00:06:00.970 --> 00:06:03.050
the exact amount of gigawatts. I don't know if

00:06:03.050 --> 00:06:07.449
it's like 9 .8 gigawatts. I forget the exact

00:06:07.449 --> 00:06:09.110
quote. I actually don't know. That's a drink

00:06:09.110 --> 00:06:11.350
it if you're playing the Back to the Future drinking

00:06:11.350 --> 00:06:13.310
game. Yeah, I don't know. I don't see anything

00:06:13.310 --> 00:06:16.750
on here. Can I see? Yeah, of course you can.

00:06:17.069 --> 00:06:18.949
She's going to inspect. I'm going to also look

00:06:18.949 --> 00:06:19.930
up the quote for gigawatts. The quote, right,

00:06:20.129 --> 00:06:23.649
just to know what it could be. Either way, it

00:06:23.649 --> 00:06:26.199
looks awesome. It does look awesome. Because

00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:28.980
the funny thing is, I think you're way off on

00:06:28.980 --> 00:06:32.540
what's... 10 .5. So I don't think it's... 1 .21

00:06:32.540 --> 00:06:35.500
gigawatts. Okay, so that's a... Okay, that won't

00:06:35.500 --> 00:06:39.620
work. This is 10 .5%. 10 .5%, where did you say

00:06:39.620 --> 00:06:43.000
that? It's on the side. 10 .5 is pretty heavy,

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:45.560
man. Turn back. It's like in the area where it's

00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:47.899
like the surge in general. Okay. That's almost...

00:06:47.899 --> 00:06:50.560
Well, I'm gonna... Yeah. Enjoy. Oh, nice. There

00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:54.540
it is. Yeah, I was just going to say, you just

00:06:54.540 --> 00:06:57.060
smell it and it's bad. It's gross. I don't like

00:06:57.060 --> 00:07:00.620
IPAs. I think they're disgusting. Damn. I know

00:07:00.620 --> 00:07:02.839
I'm out. I mean, you're always telling me how

00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:04.620
you started to move away from the concept of

00:07:04.620 --> 00:07:07.420
IPAs. I used to be like, IPAs are the only beers

00:07:07.420 --> 00:07:09.060
that I drank, and now I'm like a little over

00:07:09.060 --> 00:07:11.519
it. Like, I will sometimes, like, you know, usually

00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:13.779
will grab it to warm more towards the porters

00:07:13.779 --> 00:07:16.680
and stouts just because, you know, sometimes

00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:18.319
it can be a lot to just drink a whole pint of

00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:20.319
them. I accidentally got a stout yesterday. Accidentally?

00:07:20.500 --> 00:07:23.139
Yeah. That's the guy behind the bar. He says

00:07:23.139 --> 00:07:25.420
we have founders. So I was like, oh, it's like

00:07:25.420 --> 00:07:27.540
an all day. Yeah, exactly. Right. Yeah. So I

00:07:27.540 --> 00:07:28.920
was like, oh yeah, sure. I'll take a founders.

00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.680
And he gives me the stout and I was like a founder

00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:33.680
stout. That's not what I would think, but sure.

00:07:33.819 --> 00:07:37.079
How was it? Was it good? It was okay. Okay. Yeah.

00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.339
Yeah. I'm sure a lot of people like it better.

00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:41.879
I'm not a huge stout person, but I can have one

00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:45.189
or two here or there. So that sound in the background

00:07:45.189 --> 00:07:48.810
is a cider being gotten from Jill. That is okay

00:07:48.810 --> 00:07:53.350
for Passover, ciders. That is okay. Yes. But

00:07:53.350 --> 00:07:58.110
yeah, well. That is what we're drinking currently.

00:07:58.490 --> 00:08:01.470
Well, our person on deck just went into the kitchen.

00:08:01.629 --> 00:08:03.670
I don't know what the, oh, grabbing a, grabbing

00:08:03.670 --> 00:08:06.129
a. I almost knocked over one of your liquor bottles.

00:08:06.170 --> 00:08:08.310
Please don't do that. Well. It would be very

00:08:08.310 --> 00:08:10.009
sad. It wasn't an intentional effort. This one's

00:08:10.009 --> 00:08:13.810
not as sweet. Hmm. So, essentially, this is a

00:08:13.810 --> 00:08:16.810
movie about, or this is a podcast about movies,

00:08:17.009 --> 00:08:19.389
right? Yes. We do drink a lot. We do drink a

00:08:19.389 --> 00:08:21.050
lot. But we also watch movies while we drink.

00:08:21.069 --> 00:08:24.129
Yes, we do. And you guys have two movies for

00:08:24.129 --> 00:08:27.069
us. We do. We do. So, Jill, why don't you kick

00:08:27.069 --> 00:08:30.910
us off with the first movie? Yes. Yeah. Was it

00:08:30.910 --> 00:08:33.789
a week ago? Wow, that's a long video. It's been

00:08:33.789 --> 00:08:35.970
a long time. You know how every now and then

00:08:35.970 --> 00:08:38.289
you'll be in the movie theater or you'll be on

00:08:38.289 --> 00:08:39.870
YouTube and you'll see a trailer for something

00:08:39.870 --> 00:08:42.129
and you know immediately that you need to see

00:08:42.129 --> 00:08:44.610
that film? Yeah. Preferably on the biggest screen

00:08:44.610 --> 00:08:47.009
you can find. Yes, the unbearable weight of talent.

00:08:47.169 --> 00:08:50.309
Of massive talent, yes. That's today. That's,

00:08:50.309 --> 00:08:53.190
I know. Are you wearing your shirt under there?

00:08:53.190 --> 00:08:54.470
No, I'm not wearing my shirt. Wow. I am wearing

00:08:54.470 --> 00:09:00.100
my Johnny Clipboard shirt. Oh, nice. That's pretty

00:09:00.100 --> 00:09:04.179
good. There you go, Browns fan. Anyway. Sorry,

00:09:04.179 --> 00:09:07.940
Joe. Sorry, keep going, Joe. For me, that movie

00:09:07.940 --> 00:09:10.899
was Everything Everywhere All at Once by the

00:09:10.899 --> 00:09:14.820
directing duo The Daniels. The Daniels. Their

00:09:14.820 --> 00:09:17.639
name might sound familiar. They directed the

00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:21.799
late 2010s Farting Corpse movie, Swiss Army Man.

00:09:21.899 --> 00:09:24.059
Swiss Army Man, okay. Daniel Radcliffe. Yeah.

00:09:24.980 --> 00:09:28.019
Paul Dano. It is Paul Dano. Yeah. Dom Hill Gleeson

00:09:28.019 --> 00:09:30.019
or is it Paul Dano? It's Paul Dano. It's Paul

00:09:30.019 --> 00:09:34.379
Dano and Daniel Radcliffe. That is a very strange

00:09:34.379 --> 00:09:37.360
movie, but if you are not put off by the concept

00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:39.889
and are just kind of open to it. I highly recommend

00:09:39.889 --> 00:09:42.309
seeing that film. I saw that with my sister in

00:09:42.309 --> 00:09:45.990
Boston. It's really good. I saw it in a theater

00:09:45.990 --> 00:09:48.169
with literally two other people besides me and

00:09:48.169 --> 00:09:50.929
my sister because that movie was not well received.

00:09:51.169 --> 00:09:55.049
It was an interesting movie. Can we agree that

00:09:55.049 --> 00:09:58.289
Paul Dano looks great dressed as a woman? Yes.

00:09:58.309 --> 00:10:03.350
He really does. Very, very attractive. Riddler,

00:10:03.350 --> 00:10:06.649
Little Miss Sunshine. Little Miss Sunshine. There

00:10:06.649 --> 00:10:09.090
will be, in Cold Blood, no. There will be Blood.

00:10:09.210 --> 00:10:10.789
There will be Blood. Oh, yeah, that guy. He's

00:10:10.789 --> 00:10:12.549
the one who the milkshake line is thrown at.

00:10:12.669 --> 00:10:16.870
Yes. I also showed that Daniels directed a music

00:10:16.870 --> 00:10:19.350
video for a band we like called Joywave, and

00:10:19.350 --> 00:10:22.110
they directed the music video for Tums, which

00:10:22.110 --> 00:10:24.470
is one of Claire's favorites. Yeah, exactly.

00:10:24.970 --> 00:10:27.350
That's what I was showing you. So I don't want

00:10:27.350 --> 00:10:29.409
to say too much about the film because this is

00:10:29.409 --> 00:10:31.330
one of those where the less you know, the better.

00:10:31.629 --> 00:10:34.649
It's also hard to explain almost in a way, right?

00:10:34.990 --> 00:10:38.330
But I'll start with who's in it. It stars Michelle

00:10:38.330 --> 00:10:43.950
Yeoh. Kee Kee Kwan and Stephanie Hsu. Kee Kee

00:10:43.950 --> 00:10:46.309
Kwan might sound familiar to you if you are a

00:10:46.309 --> 00:10:49.470
fan of the late 80s films Indiana Jones and the

00:10:49.470 --> 00:10:52.870
Temple of Doom and The Goonies. He is data. He

00:10:52.870 --> 00:10:54.990
took some time away from being in front of this

00:10:54.990 --> 00:10:57.419
film. A lot of time away. You know what? Yeah,

00:10:57.480 --> 00:11:00.139
fine. A lot of time waiting in front of the screen.

00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:02.419
He's done a lot of stuff in Hollywood behind

00:11:02.419 --> 00:11:04.159
the screen, primarily in stunt coordination,

00:11:04.419 --> 00:11:08.080
but this is his first film appearance in quite

00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:10.399
some time, and it's quite refreshing to see him.

00:11:10.620 --> 00:11:12.240
That's awesome. It looks like he hasn't missed

00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:15.220
a beat. He has not. He also looks like, and I

00:11:15.220 --> 00:11:17.860
mean, he didn't look awful as a child actor.

00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:21.659
No. But he had a glow up. Oh, absolutely. He's

00:11:21.659 --> 00:11:24.909
coming to his own. Yeah, right. But his distinct

00:11:24.909 --> 00:11:29.029
voice is still there, and he uses all of his

00:11:29.029 --> 00:11:31.830
abilities of acting to the greatest potential

00:11:31.830 --> 00:11:34.129
in this film. You see so many ranges. And the

00:11:34.129 --> 00:11:37.110
same is true for Michelle Yeoh. I almost called

00:11:37.110 --> 00:11:41.250
her Michelle Kwan. Michelle Yeoh. And James Hong

00:11:41.250 --> 00:11:43.870
is in this, too. If you don't know who James

00:11:43.870 --> 00:11:45.450
Hong is, you've definitely heard his voice, is

00:11:45.450 --> 00:11:48.809
all I will say. He's in Mulan. He is in Kung

00:11:48.809 --> 00:11:51.989
Fu Panda. What more do you need to know? Rush

00:11:51.989 --> 00:11:54.370
Hour. Rush Hour, right. I don't think I've actually

00:11:54.370 --> 00:11:55.809
seen Rush Hour. I don't mean to, like, I feel

00:11:55.809 --> 00:11:57.029
like Hollywood kind of... Not even I've seen

00:11:57.029 --> 00:11:58.929
it. What? What? Really? I'm just saying a lot

00:11:58.929 --> 00:12:00.850
because I don't watch nearly as many movies as

00:12:00.850 --> 00:12:04.549
you guys. Yeah. I was busy. Okay. I was busy.

00:12:04.909 --> 00:12:08.549
You were busy for, wait, what, 15 years? Yeah,

00:12:08.549 --> 00:12:11.190
right. So, I mean, we should give at least, like,

00:12:11.269 --> 00:12:13.070
the premise of this movie, right? Hang on, I

00:12:13.070 --> 00:12:14.710
forgot to mention Jamie Lee Curtis. Oh, yeah,

00:12:14.710 --> 00:12:15.750
Jamie Lee Curtis is in this, too. And Jamie Lee

00:12:15.750 --> 00:12:18.129
Curtis is in this, too. Really? Yes. Yes, Jamie

00:12:18.129 --> 00:12:22.809
Lee Curtis. So, yeah, the... What is going on?

00:12:22.830 --> 00:12:26.690
I'm just IMDb -ing. For us dumb people here,

00:12:26.789 --> 00:12:30.570
a .k .a. Claire. So what is this movie about?

00:12:30.730 --> 00:12:34.029
It's about family. It's about family. Let me

00:12:34.029 --> 00:12:38.090
just give you the back of the DVD. I'm going

00:12:38.090 --> 00:12:39.970
to try to take a stab at the back of the DVD.

00:12:40.870 --> 00:12:44.210
He is great. I don't want to spoil anything about

00:12:44.210 --> 00:12:48.429
Harry Schumann. Basically, this movie centers

00:12:48.429 --> 00:12:52.500
around a Chinese... Well, right, a Chinese -American

00:12:52.500 --> 00:12:55.960
family that runs a laundromat. Michelle Yeoh

00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:58.379
is the main star. She's kind of trying to, well,

00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:00.200
I don't even know, hold the whole family together.

00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:02.980
It opens with her just trying to balance all

00:13:02.980 --> 00:13:05.879
of her receipts, basically, because they found

00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:08.240
out this laundromat is kind of failing and under

00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:11.899
hard times, and they're being audited. So she's

00:13:11.899 --> 00:13:14.679
just trying to scramble to get all of these handwritten

00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:18.320
receipts all in order. And then her husband is

00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:21.259
played by Katie Kwan. is about to serve her divorce

00:13:21.259 --> 00:13:24.659
papers and then their daughter is uh kind of

00:13:24.659 --> 00:13:27.139
struggling with the fact that her mom doesn't

00:13:27.139 --> 00:13:28.980
accept the fact that she's gay she's trying to

00:13:28.980 --> 00:13:31.879
bring her girlfriend over um for dinner because

00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.620
uh their her grandpa is coming over from china

00:13:35.620 --> 00:13:38.460
just to see them for the first time so she's

00:13:38.460 --> 00:13:41.799
trying to get um michelle yo's character to say

00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:44.460
like hey can my can my girlfriend come and come

00:13:44.460 --> 00:13:46.419
to the dinner and like can you tell like grandpa

00:13:46.419 --> 00:13:49.600
what the situation is etc etc and michelle basically

00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:54.500
in denial about it um so basically the the the

00:13:54.500 --> 00:13:57.200
the main most of this movie takes place in an

00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:58.700
irs building because like i said they're getting

00:13:58.700 --> 00:14:01.779
audited yeah they have to go and present all

00:14:01.779 --> 00:14:03.639
of these receipts to just make sure that they

00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:06.940
don't go under right and their auditor is jamie

00:14:06.940 --> 00:14:11.120
lee curtis so um in on the elevator ride up basically

00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:13.419
like michelle you it's like a family life is

00:14:13.419 --> 00:14:16.019
just Evelyn's, I should say, usually character's

00:14:16.019 --> 00:14:17.940
name, Evelyn's family life is fracturing at the

00:14:17.940 --> 00:14:19.820
seams. You know, she's trying to be impressive

00:14:19.820 --> 00:14:22.500
for her father, who's very disapproving of affection

00:14:22.500 --> 00:14:26.379
for America, et cetera, et cetera. And in the

00:14:26.379 --> 00:14:28.620
middle of the elevator ride, like, she, like,

00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:32.820
her husband, Waymond, yes, thank you, totally

00:14:32.820 --> 00:14:35.299
has a totally different personality, just suddenly

00:14:35.299 --> 00:14:36.960
he's used to be, like, kind of this more meek,

00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:39.679
self -spoken guy, changes his personality, turns

00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:43.179
to Evelyn and says, You need to save the multiverse.

00:14:43.259 --> 00:14:44.919
Yeah, you need to save the whole universe right

00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:46.820
now. There's no time to talk, no time to explain.

00:14:47.019 --> 00:14:49.759
Wear this headset thing. The multiverse is in

00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:52.740
danger. We need you. We need you right now. Can

00:14:52.740 --> 00:14:54.960
I pause for a second? Because literally right

00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:57.570
before that... I was thinking, wow, this sounds

00:14:57.570 --> 00:14:59.710
like a great, like, snapshot movie. Like, it's

00:14:59.710 --> 00:15:02.330
like a snapshot and it's not like a whole, like,

00:15:02.389 --> 00:15:04.929
narrative. Okay. This ain't a slice of life.

00:15:04.950 --> 00:15:07.450
Apparently not. That's where we'll leave it.

00:15:07.450 --> 00:15:09.110
That's where we'll leave it in that it becomes

00:15:09.110 --> 00:15:11.889
a multiverse movie. And I don't, I don't mean

00:15:11.889 --> 00:15:13.769
to. And that's not a spoiler if you've seen any.

00:15:13.809 --> 00:15:15.269
No, that's in the trailer. That's in the commercial

00:15:15.269 --> 00:15:17.289
or whatever. It's called Multiverse Jumping.

00:15:17.289 --> 00:15:20.149
And so Michelle, Evelyn has to become the savior

00:15:20.149 --> 00:15:22.820
of the universe. Travel to multiple universes

00:15:22.820 --> 00:15:25.720
and live multiple lives to save the multiverse.

00:15:26.139 --> 00:15:28.080
And that's the only plot I kind of want to give

00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:30.440
away. Okay. You know. You forgot about the best

00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:33.820
actor name though. Who? Biff Whiff. Biff Whiff.

00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:37.419
Biff Whiff. He played Rick. And who's Rick? I

00:15:37.419 --> 00:15:40.799
don't remember who Rick is. It's this guy. Old

00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:44.159
man. White beard. Oh, he's a laundromat attendant.

00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:46.840
Yes, he's a laundromat. His name is Biff Whiff.

00:15:46.940 --> 00:15:48.779
Biff Whiff. That's his real name? Biff Whiff.

00:15:48.860 --> 00:15:50.940
And he's getting over his wife's dying. Yes,

00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:54.639
that's true. Oh, Biff. Not pivotal to the story.

00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:59.360
But it's weird. It's weird. It's manic. There's

00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:02.559
a lot of different film styles. There's a lot

00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:05.000
of different art styles. None of that's a spoiler.

00:16:05.690 --> 00:16:07.490
And it's, like I said at the top of this, the

00:16:07.490 --> 00:16:09.909
less you know going into this, the better. Because

00:16:09.909 --> 00:16:13.730
it's just an insane ride that by the end of it,

00:16:13.769 --> 00:16:18.450
you're just almost, whoa. I literally felt all

00:16:18.450 --> 00:16:19.870
the things. This will probably be the funniest

00:16:19.870 --> 00:16:21.649
movie I've ever seen. You felt everything, everywhere,

00:16:21.730 --> 00:16:25.210
all at once? Yes. Honestly. Like, it is hilarious.

00:16:25.409 --> 00:16:28.779
No. It's, like, it's at times a fun, like, action

00:16:28.779 --> 00:16:32.000
martial arts movie. It's, like, a laugh out loud,

00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:34.340
like, comedy movie. Sometimes it's a deep sci

00:16:34.340 --> 00:16:37.759
-fi film. And it's a really intimate story about

00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.980
family, too. It's such a, it balances with all

00:16:40.980 --> 00:16:45.019
of, like, the whole scale of the story is wacky

00:16:45.019 --> 00:16:47.840
and huge, but the characters themselves are really

00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:50.299
grounded and small, right? Like, it feels intimate.

00:16:50.460 --> 00:16:54.100
You never get overwhelmed. buy the story and

00:16:54.100 --> 00:16:56.120
forget about why you're even watching this and

00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:59.379
why Evelyn's character fits into this or how

00:16:59.379 --> 00:17:03.059
every other character kind of has a place. And

00:17:03.059 --> 00:17:06.279
yeah, no, it was a great film. I have concerns

00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:08.940
of it getting green -nighted for next year's

00:17:08.940 --> 00:17:12.420
Oscars. Meaning? Too early. Too early? Well,

00:17:12.539 --> 00:17:14.720
that's my biggest lament of this film is it shouldn't

00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:16.720
have come out in April. Yeah. It should have

00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:19.170
come out... September, October. Do you think

00:17:19.170 --> 00:17:21.470
there was that much concern of how it would do?

00:17:21.670 --> 00:17:23.589
Is that why it came out? No. I don't know. I

00:17:23.589 --> 00:17:25.390
don't think the Daniels care. Yeah, because it's

00:17:25.390 --> 00:17:27.549
a limited theater release, right? We had to drive

00:17:27.549 --> 00:17:29.230
all the way. We had to drive twice. There was

00:17:29.230 --> 00:17:31.690
only three theaters in Connecticut. Yeah. Where

00:17:31.690 --> 00:17:33.869
did you go? We went to Plainville. We went to

00:17:33.869 --> 00:17:37.009
Plainville. There was a screening in Southington

00:17:37.009 --> 00:17:40.220
at 2 today. And because we've been off today,

00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:42.059
I was kind of like, oh, yeah, we should go or

00:17:42.059 --> 00:17:43.740
something like that. But then it would have been

00:17:43.740 --> 00:17:45.900
rushing to get here to record and everything.

00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:48.980
Sure. I'm not going to lie. No, I'm. You should

00:17:48.980 --> 00:17:51.380
see it. It's really good. And it's like, this

00:17:51.380 --> 00:17:53.740
isn't just like, oh, if you love sci -fi, it's

00:17:53.740 --> 00:17:55.539
like, no, like it's almost not even the point.

00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:58.380
Like, it's just. Right. It's just unique. Yeah.

00:17:58.460 --> 00:18:00.170
Yeah. One of the most unique films I've seen.

00:18:00.289 --> 00:18:02.410
Nothing wrong with being unique. All of these

00:18:02.410 --> 00:18:06.190
actors are firing it on all cylinders. Jamie

00:18:06.190 --> 00:18:09.089
Lee Curtis also underspoken. I don't want to

00:18:09.089 --> 00:18:12.210
say MVP of the film. There's no MVP. Everyone

00:18:12.210 --> 00:18:16.690
has been at least 300 on this film. They're all

00:18:16.690 --> 00:18:19.809
doing great. It sounds refreshing because we're

00:18:19.809 --> 00:18:22.490
in a... time, I feel like, where everything is

00:18:22.490 --> 00:18:27.650
sequel, prequel, remake. It's the same thing

00:18:27.650 --> 00:18:30.009
over and over. It sounds like a nice, refreshing

00:18:30.009 --> 00:18:32.670
movie. Which is funny you bring up sequel because

00:18:32.670 --> 00:18:35.309
the rest of the episode is sequels. All sequels.

00:18:37.309 --> 00:18:38.930
There's nothing wrong with that, but it just

00:18:38.930 --> 00:18:41.950
sounds like a very good... If done well, sequels,

00:18:41.950 --> 00:18:44.549
prequel, all that stuff, remakes are fine, but

00:18:44.549 --> 00:18:46.930
it sounds like a nice, refreshing original movie.

00:18:46.930 --> 00:18:49.390
I think we both agree we'll readily buy this

00:18:49.390 --> 00:18:53.339
on Blu -ray. I want to support this film and

00:18:53.339 --> 00:18:55.200
as we were saying about like concerned about

00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:56.980
how it would do like I said I don't think the

00:18:56.980 --> 00:19:00.039
Daniels give a shit I want them to create keep

00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:03.279
making them whatever movies they want to make

00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:06.319
because they continue to be out of the box and

00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:09.400
weird but very thought provoking I mean Swiss

00:19:09.400 --> 00:19:12.220
Army Man was thought -provoking it's an existential

00:19:12.220 --> 00:19:14.880
crisis with the corpse it's a great well and

00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:16.779
it also makes sense like we were saying about

00:19:16.779 --> 00:19:18.500
joy wave and everything like that their song

00:19:18.500 --> 00:19:23.180
is off the rails too and so it really works with

00:19:23.180 --> 00:19:25.619
those two as well if they're thought -provoking

00:19:25.619 --> 00:19:29.480
and weird um okay so let's give it a rating do

00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:33.259
you want to go first i mean dude There's one

00:19:33.259 --> 00:19:34.900
I want to say, but I can't say it because it's

00:19:34.900 --> 00:19:39.920
a spoiler. Okay. Oh, yeah. All I will say, I'm

00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:41.900
going to give this one five raccoons out of five.

00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:44.849
I'll give it five out of five fanny packs. Nice.

00:19:44.849 --> 00:19:46.430
Five out of fives. I like Fractures and Fanny

00:19:46.430 --> 00:19:48.609
Packs. Yeah. And you'll like this movie. Yeah.

00:19:48.970 --> 00:19:52.230
If you listen to our Oscars episode as well,

00:19:52.250 --> 00:19:54.890
our friend Mark says it's easily his favorite

00:19:54.890 --> 00:19:57.349
movie of the year thus far. Yeah. Obviously,

00:19:57.349 --> 00:19:59.910
it's still early, but he doesn't think it's going

00:19:59.910 --> 00:20:02.230
to readily be knocked off. There's not going

00:20:02.230 --> 00:20:04.630
to be another weird... I would say the unbearable

00:20:04.630 --> 00:20:07.089
weight of... I would be shocked. A massive talent.

00:20:07.089 --> 00:20:09.059
So that movie... I haven't seen it it just came

00:20:09.059 --> 00:20:11.920
out that movie at least is in the quadrant of

00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:15.940
semi weirdness that everything everywhere at

00:20:15.940 --> 00:20:19.079
once just shoots beyond the border of but as

00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:21.900
far as I know I haven't seen a trailer for a

00:20:21.900 --> 00:20:24.789
film that's gonna be so unique and weird. I don't,

00:20:24.789 --> 00:20:26.170
I don't know, I don't, I don't think I could

00:20:26.170 --> 00:20:28.309
call this a perfect movie, but I also don't really

00:20:28.309 --> 00:20:30.650
know where I'm at point to be like, oh, I didn't

00:20:30.650 --> 00:20:33.390
like this part. And like, it's long. It is long,

00:20:33.390 --> 00:20:34.910
yeah. You're gonna feel the length of it, but

00:20:34.910 --> 00:20:36.750
in a good way. In a good way, right. It all,

00:20:36.750 --> 00:20:39.349
it all feels, like, the main effect is not the

00:20:39.349 --> 00:20:40.950
right word, like deliberate, there we go. Yes,

00:20:40.950 --> 00:20:42.049
deliberate, deliberate. This is intentional.

00:20:42.450 --> 00:20:45.029
Every scene, in every scene, every item, When

00:20:45.029 --> 00:20:46.230
you feel exhausted, it's meant, you're meant

00:20:46.230 --> 00:20:48.230
to feel exhausted, overwhelmed, et cetera, et

00:20:48.230 --> 00:20:49.970
cetera. Okay. You know? They know what they're

00:20:49.970 --> 00:20:51.690
doing, those Daniels. Yep. Those Daniels. So

00:20:51.690 --> 00:20:54.500
it sounds like, terms. There's no good time for

00:20:54.500 --> 00:20:59.500
a pee break. No. No before the film. I'll try.

00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:01.720
Well, we can't go and do what we did for our

00:21:01.720 --> 00:21:05.660
movie, which is drink during the movie. We'll

00:21:05.660 --> 00:21:07.559
get to that though. I wonder, isn't there like

00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:09.779
an app that tells you when the right time? Runpee.

00:21:09.779 --> 00:21:12.119
What's that? Runpee. Runpee. I wonder when Runpee

00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:14.779
would tell you. We'll look that up later. We'll

00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:16.259
look it up later and see if we agree with her

00:21:16.259 --> 00:21:18.680
choice. Runpee got bought up by somebody. No

00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:23.339
one might have used it for your film. Oh, I know

00:21:23.339 --> 00:21:25.200
exactly where I would if I feel bad. It's also

00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:29.900
a good app. Oh, I just heard. It used to be an

00:21:29.900 --> 00:21:33.160
app, but now it's been absorbed by AMC. So if

00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:36.180
you go to movie details on any AMC movie, shout

00:21:36.180 --> 00:21:39.140
out AMC, you can find the run pee times. That's

00:21:39.140 --> 00:21:40.680
where we saw this movie. I want to close out

00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:44.140
and say that Michelle Yeoh is a gorgeous vampire

00:21:44.140 --> 00:21:49.730
of a woman. She's not getting older. She ages

00:21:49.730 --> 00:21:52.269
like fine wine. Yes. She's fantastic. I want

00:21:52.269 --> 00:21:56.029
to go back and watch... Every person in the principal

00:21:56.029 --> 00:21:58.170
cast is just awesome. I want to watch all of

00:21:58.170 --> 00:22:02.410
her films. Back from the start with... I remember

00:22:02.410 --> 00:22:05.369
my first beer, rookie. Not even beer. This isn't

00:22:05.369 --> 00:22:08.750
my first beer. This is my second. Speaking of

00:22:08.750 --> 00:22:13.250
second, we've got a second movie. Mike with the

00:22:13.250 --> 00:22:16.869
segway. Holy shit. Don't fall off that mountain

00:22:16.869 --> 00:22:20.470
with your segway. This is my life. This is why

00:22:20.470 --> 00:22:21.650
I don't come on the podcast. Because when you're

00:22:21.650 --> 00:22:25.970
here, you're family. Oh, I love it. I will say

00:22:25.970 --> 00:22:27.809
they didn't disappoint with the Olive Garden.

00:22:27.910 --> 00:22:28.930
They didn't disappoint with the Olive Garden.

00:22:29.529 --> 00:22:32.069
I told Andre I would be so upset if there was

00:22:32.069 --> 00:22:37.529
an Olive Garden. We're talking about the Blockbuster

00:22:37.529 --> 00:22:39.230
movie that's sweeping the nation right now, Sonic

00:22:39.230 --> 00:22:43.029
the Hedgehog 2. That porcupine speed. The movie

00:22:43.029 --> 00:22:46.690
that made Jim Carrey retire. Got it. I was talking

00:22:46.690 --> 00:22:48.769
with a patient last night. Granted, he was in

00:22:48.769 --> 00:22:51.470
fifth grade, but he was very into the Sonic movie.

00:22:51.829 --> 00:22:57.390
Sonic 2. This cider is fresh. We are all over

00:22:57.390 --> 00:22:59.549
the place. I think it's a really good point because

00:22:59.549 --> 00:23:01.990
I think they know exactly what they're doing.

00:23:02.069 --> 00:23:04.569
This is the exact right time to try to make a

00:23:04.569 --> 00:23:07.440
Sonic franchise because this is making a whole

00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:10.680
new wave of Sonic fans. It's pandering, but it's...

00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:12.579
You're not only getting the dumbass nerds like

00:23:12.579 --> 00:23:15.700
me that are pushing 30, or 30 to 40, really,

00:23:15.779 --> 00:23:18.660
if you're the Genesis kid, but you're also a

00:23:18.660 --> 00:23:20.779
whole... There were kids in the theater, and

00:23:20.779 --> 00:23:22.599
they loved it. Oh, yeah. Well, it's a kid's movie.

00:23:22.740 --> 00:23:25.140
It's a kid's movie, yeah. I don't care, but for

00:23:25.140 --> 00:23:27.319
this... This is the second one of them. We know

00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:29.240
exactly what this movie is. Yeah, but I guess

00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:31.190
for me... Like, I know it's a kids movie. I'll

00:23:31.190 --> 00:23:33.230
never lose sight of that fact. But the fact that

00:23:33.230 --> 00:23:35.269
there were kids in the theater for this property

00:23:35.269 --> 00:23:37.349
that has been around since even before I was

00:23:37.349 --> 00:23:41.130
born was just kind of endearing. You keep saying

00:23:41.130 --> 00:23:42.950
there's kids in the theater. It reminds me of

00:23:42.950 --> 00:23:45.549
the worst kids movie experience I ever had in

00:23:45.549 --> 00:23:47.470
a theater. Well, it wasn't Doolittle. No, it

00:23:47.470 --> 00:23:51.730
was two guys, myself and Adam Claus, in the movie

00:23:51.730 --> 00:23:54.349
theater for Peanuts, the Peanuts movie. Oh, but

00:23:54.349 --> 00:23:56.809
the Peanuts movie's good. But it was only us

00:23:56.809 --> 00:24:02.519
two. So? Two like 20 year old guys. Yeah. Have

00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:04.559
you never seen a movie by yourself before? Like

00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:08.519
an empty theater? Plenty but like a movie with

00:24:08.519 --> 00:24:11.480
another guy that's about kid stuff. I saw Coco

00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:16.220
with myself and a family but it was like I guess

00:24:16.220 --> 00:24:18.680
dad and dad or dad and boyfriend and like the

00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:20.759
kids were bored but dad and boyfriend Were you

00:24:20.759 --> 00:24:25.299
all sobbing? bawling like you i will also say

00:24:25.299 --> 00:24:28.000
though with you like it's a little more i think

00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:30.640
when guys go yeah i think it's i think it's a

00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:34.000
guy thing yeah that's sad i know it is sad oh

00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.640
it's very sad we're getting down the rabbit hole

00:24:35.640 --> 00:24:37.660
here i mean well yeah i remember that my other

00:24:37.660 --> 00:24:39.759
experience whatever gender you identify with

00:24:39.759 --> 00:24:41.680
when i went to go see the lego movie in theaters

00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:46.339
if my mom was uh visiting and she made the joke

00:24:47.150 --> 00:24:49.009
No, no, no. That was the first... You said the

00:24:49.009 --> 00:24:50.690
Lego movie. Sorry, Lego Batman movie. Sorry,

00:24:50.769 --> 00:24:52.849
you're right. Lego... Oh, yes, the worst Batman.

00:24:53.089 --> 00:24:55.490
Oh, gosh. That's Batman. Well, so my mom liked

00:24:55.490 --> 00:24:56.809
the Lego movie, right? She was just like, oh,

00:24:56.829 --> 00:24:58.529
yeah, let's go see that. I'll watch that with

00:24:58.529 --> 00:25:00.930
you or whatever. And, like, yeah, we were definitely...

00:25:00.930 --> 00:25:03.210
I was definitely the oldest person there. Yeah.

00:25:03.250 --> 00:25:04.369
I was just like, you were definitely the oldest

00:25:04.369 --> 00:25:06.750
kid in that theater. Yeah. I'm like, yeah, okay.

00:25:07.950 --> 00:25:11.730
Anyway, this was a big digression. Yeah, it is.

00:25:11.950 --> 00:25:14.579
Back to Sonic 2. Sonic 2. Yeah, Sonic the Hedgehog

00:25:14.579 --> 00:25:16.119
2. I mean, you know exactly what that movie is,

00:25:16.220 --> 00:25:18.599
right? Well, I was going to tell you to just

00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:21.059
spoil it at this point because I doubt we're

00:25:21.059 --> 00:25:23.339
going to see it until A, it comes out on something.

00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:26.240
I haven't seen the first one. I haven't seen

00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:30.779
any of them. I don't even need to give a whole

00:25:30.779 --> 00:25:33.259
plot summary. Idris Elba made an animated echidna

00:25:33.259 --> 00:25:37.049
hot. okay well let's stay on that one apparently

00:25:37.049 --> 00:25:39.849
it's a meme sexy echidna well because he said

00:25:39.849 --> 00:25:42.170
in an interview like leading up to the movie

00:25:42.170 --> 00:25:44.190
he's like yeah like I didn't do a sexy echidna

00:25:44.190 --> 00:25:45.930
voice or I didn't do a sexy voice for Knuckles

00:25:45.930 --> 00:25:48.089
and I'm like it's just my voice I'm like bro

00:25:48.089 --> 00:25:51.750
okay yeah exactly your voice is leather yeah

00:25:51.750 --> 00:25:59.500
sexy no matter what you do yeah um So Sonic 2

00:25:59.500 --> 00:26:04.259
takes place a couple months after the events

00:26:04.259 --> 00:26:08.740
of the first one. I guess the credit stinger

00:26:08.740 --> 00:26:10.660
for the first one was Tails showing up, right?

00:26:10.700 --> 00:26:14.259
And if you like the first Sonic, it's more of

00:26:14.259 --> 00:26:18.220
that amped up, but with more characters. Much

00:26:18.220 --> 00:26:20.759
like the actual video game, Sonic 2 is just a

00:26:20.759 --> 00:26:24.400
bigger, better version of Sonic 1. So you say

00:26:24.400 --> 00:26:28.440
better. Is it better? It's tough, right? Sonic

00:26:28.440 --> 00:26:32.200
1 was more of a surprise because I wanted a movie

00:26:32.200 --> 00:26:33.680
thinking it was not going to be as good as it

00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:35.859
was. I think I enjoyed Sonic, as of right now,

00:26:35.880 --> 00:26:38.480
Sonic 2 I think I like more than Sonic 1, but

00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:41.119
for two very, very different reasons. So Sonic

00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:46.200
2 did this thing right. If you've ever watched

00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:48.880
a movie, primarily a kid's film, that has either

00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:52.779
an animated creature or a CGI creature, They're

00:26:52.779 --> 00:26:54.599
human characters, and those human characters

00:26:54.599 --> 00:26:57.400
have to go away sometime. Yeah. But there has

00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:00.180
to be a plot reason. It can be flimsy and see

00:27:00.180 --> 00:27:02.180
-through, but there has to be a reason for them

00:27:02.180 --> 00:27:04.460
to leave the house, leave the state, leave whatever.

00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:08.619
Yeah. Go on a vacation. They handled why James

00:27:08.619 --> 00:27:11.059
Marsden, and I wish I knew the actress who plays

00:27:11.059 --> 00:27:12.839
his wife's character. Oh, I should have looked

00:27:12.839 --> 00:27:14.599
it up. They handled their exit. Tika Sumter?

00:27:14.880 --> 00:27:17.519
Yes, Tika Sumter. James Marsden and Tika Sumter's

00:27:17.519 --> 00:27:20.079
characters exit from the plot for a little bit

00:27:20.079 --> 00:27:23.099
very, very well. They go to Hawaii for her sister

00:27:23.099 --> 00:27:26.440
Rachel's wedding. Yeah, they tried to solve the

00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:28.180
problem that a lot of people have with kids'

00:27:28.299 --> 00:27:29.720
movies like Transformers and stuff like that

00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:30.880
where they're bored by the human characters.

00:27:30.980 --> 00:27:33.339
They literally just... sequestered them in hawaii

00:27:33.339 --> 00:27:35.599
for a while but it works because send the humans

00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:39.140
away yeah exactly yeah there's a later part in

00:27:39.140 --> 00:27:43.279
the film where things are revealed and the wedding

00:27:43.279 --> 00:27:46.440
kind of falls apart and what comes next is one

00:27:46.440 --> 00:27:48.519
of my favorite segments of the entire film where

00:27:48.519 --> 00:27:52.700
it's tika sumter and her uh sister um the character's

00:27:52.700 --> 00:27:55.400
name for rachel they need to natasha rothwell

00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:58.440
natasha rothwell and tika sumter they need to

00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:01.900
get back into the hotel for plot reasons and

00:28:01.900 --> 00:28:04.799
they kind of divide and conquer and it's just

00:28:04.799 --> 00:28:08.940
hilarious the whole thing is great in this segment

00:28:10.689 --> 00:28:13.730
Miles, aka Tails, comes in. He's adorable. I

00:28:13.730 --> 00:28:15.630
want to give him a hug and a cookie. Well, right.

00:28:15.670 --> 00:28:17.549
So they made the wise decision, I think, to bring

00:28:17.549 --> 00:28:21.049
back Colleen O'Shaughnessy. Who was the voice

00:28:21.049 --> 00:28:24.410
in the video games. These characters have been

00:28:24.410 --> 00:28:25.930
around enough that there's been multiple voice

00:28:25.930 --> 00:28:28.470
actors. But yet she is the most up -to -date

00:28:28.470 --> 00:28:32.130
Tails. They did not stunt -cast Tails. And apparently

00:28:32.130 --> 00:28:36.650
when she met Jim Carrey... she was, like, so

00:28:36.650 --> 00:28:38.730
excited. Oh, yeah. It was so blown away with

00:28:38.730 --> 00:28:41.369
how nice he was, she can't even remember half

00:28:41.369 --> 00:28:43.309
the conversation. Well, like, that's, like, kind

00:28:43.309 --> 00:28:45.329
of the theme I saw, like, with, um, even, like,

00:28:45.390 --> 00:28:47.829
Agent Stone, uh, gosh, what is his name? Liam

00:28:47.829 --> 00:28:51.430
Majdub. Yeah, okay. Um, he, for the first movie,

00:28:51.509 --> 00:28:53.309
he was, like, his pinned tweet, I was, like,

00:28:53.309 --> 00:28:54.970
looking at this, because, A, he's a wholesome

00:28:54.970 --> 00:28:57.289
guy, I love his Twitter, because all the people,

00:28:57.369 --> 00:29:00.109
he plays, um, Agent Stone, who is Dr. Robotnik's

00:29:00.109 --> 00:29:03.589
right -hand man. Yes. Possibly more. Right. And

00:29:03.589 --> 00:29:05.750
the more important part is that, he's an original

00:29:05.750 --> 00:29:07.990
character for these movies but the fans have

00:29:07.990 --> 00:29:09.650
really latched on to him like somebody did like

00:29:09.650 --> 00:29:11.410
somebody did fan art of like him doing pixel

00:29:11.410 --> 00:29:14.509
art with Agent Stone and Dr. Robotnik and he

00:29:14.509 --> 00:29:16.809
retweeted it's like this is awesome so fun his

00:29:16.809 --> 00:29:18.990
pinned tweet is him on the red carpet for the

00:29:18.990 --> 00:29:21.970
Sonic 1 premiere with Jim Carrey like he is fanboying

00:29:21.970 --> 00:29:24.089
yeah yeah and I think that's what I reasons why

00:29:24.089 --> 00:29:26.190
this these films have worked so well is that

00:29:26.190 --> 00:29:28.529
these actors are not ashamed to be yeah no one

00:29:28.529 --> 00:29:30.869
no one no one seems to be bored right for a very

00:29:30.869 --> 00:29:33.130
for how silly this movie is no one seems to be

00:29:33.130 --> 00:29:36.130
like oh god i'm doing the sonic movie right you

00:29:36.130 --> 00:29:38.609
know you can tell sometimes that was an argument

00:29:38.609 --> 00:29:42.109
for the obviously when the movie started to come

00:29:42.109 --> 00:29:44.650
out they were comparing uh james marsden and

00:29:44.650 --> 00:29:48.009
hop versus james marsden and sonic yeah yeah

00:29:48.009 --> 00:29:53.460
yeah and it was very different because Apparently

00:29:53.460 --> 00:29:56.000
in Hop, he was miserable. Oh, okay. And in Sonic,

00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:58.480
he was having a good time. Good. Yeah, and you

00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:01.640
can tell, right? Everyone's trying, at least,

00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:04.859
right? No, absolutely. Jim Carrey, obviously,

00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:07.019
honestly, same as the first one, MVP of this

00:30:07.019 --> 00:30:09.740
movie. They knew exactly what they were doing,

00:30:09.819 --> 00:30:11.900
because I feel like, whatever, I wasn't there

00:30:11.900 --> 00:30:13.819
when they made it, but it definitely feels like,

00:30:13.900 --> 00:30:16.599
hey, Jim, just do whatever you want to do. Do

00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:19.059
your thing, riff on the character, whatever,

00:30:19.180 --> 00:30:22.500
who cares? And he's... It's peak 90s Jim Carrey.

00:30:23.019 --> 00:30:26.079
Makes me very bittersweet that it sounds like

00:30:26.079 --> 00:30:28.019
this is going to be his last movie. He's saying

00:30:28.019 --> 00:30:31.319
he wants to be done. I think they can drag him

00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:36.359
out for Sonic 3. Yeah, right. Definitely. I'm

00:30:36.359 --> 00:30:40.259
not saying it's not an effort, but Sonic 3 feels

00:30:40.259 --> 00:30:42.140
a little more like something you'd be willing

00:30:42.140 --> 00:30:45.880
to do versus like... he's definitely not doing

00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:47.940
another kick -ass movie. I know that. Right.

00:30:48.180 --> 00:30:50.559
So I think he's doing Dumb and Dumber 3. Right.

00:30:51.319 --> 00:30:54.240
Yeah. We don't talk about that. And I've never

00:30:54.240 --> 00:30:56.460
seen them because, as the name implies, they're

00:30:56.460 --> 00:30:58.759
dumb. The first one's great. Yeah. First one's

00:30:58.759 --> 00:31:00.759
classic. My favorite movie. Oh, I love the first

00:31:00.759 --> 00:31:02.539
one. No. No, it's not my favorite movie, no.

00:31:02.660 --> 00:31:04.380
It was for a long time. It was for a long time.

00:31:04.579 --> 00:31:07.730
Yeah. Yeah. The biggest... complaint i have with

00:31:07.730 --> 00:31:10.329
this movie uh about 24 hours after seeing it

00:31:10.329 --> 00:31:13.089
is it's about 20 minutes yeah it's really long

00:31:13.089 --> 00:31:15.750
like 10 minutes we are we are like it's a full

00:31:15.750 --> 00:31:19.230
two hours that is the absolute limit of how long

00:31:19.230 --> 00:31:21.829
it can handle sonic yeah well and like for kids

00:31:21.829 --> 00:31:24.829
too like yeah and it's very easy to point out

00:31:24.829 --> 00:31:28.009
what scene should be cut there is a dance off

00:31:28.009 --> 00:31:31.710
dance battle in siberia in siberia and it really

00:31:31.710 --> 00:31:34.750
i my question as it happened was how much did

00:31:34.750 --> 00:31:38.549
they pay bruno mars Mark Ronson to use Uptown

00:31:38.549 --> 00:31:41.849
Funk. Because Uptown Funk is the song that brings

00:31:41.849 --> 00:31:46.450
nations together. Sonic and the Siberians. So

00:31:46.450 --> 00:31:49.940
who wrote this movie? The same people. Oh my

00:31:49.940 --> 00:31:52.960
gosh. Is it? It is. I was going to look at their

00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:54.980
names and then I realized you knew already. I

00:31:54.980 --> 00:31:57.759
already knew. Pat Casey and Josh Miller, people.

00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:02.579
The illustrious minds behind Transylvania. From

00:32:02.579 --> 00:32:06.220
shoving weed up someone's anus. Wrong. Wrong.

00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:09.880
Shoving weed up someone's anus wrong. Yes, the

00:32:09.880 --> 00:32:12.119
wrong way. No, I'm not calling you wrong. The

00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:14.279
weed went up the butt. I saw that happen. It

00:32:14.279 --> 00:32:15.920
just went up the butt the hard way. Yeah. From

00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:19.440
a weed dildo to... Idris Elba as the echidna.

00:32:20.180 --> 00:32:25.119
Cheers to you, man! Cheers to you! It got some

00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:27.740
chuckles out of me. Not every joke lands, but

00:32:27.740 --> 00:32:31.400
some jokes, especially with Knuckles. I was honestly

00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:35.039
skeptical going in with Idris Elba doing Knuckles,

00:32:35.099 --> 00:32:38.380
but I'm down with Idris the echidna. I'm down

00:32:38.380 --> 00:32:42.259
for it going forward. I love that. That was good.

00:32:42.940 --> 00:32:45.150
We'll close out. and say that they did tease

00:32:45.150 --> 00:32:46.990
the third film, which will happen. I think it's

00:32:46.990 --> 00:32:50.529
already written in stone. And Shadow! Oh, wow.

00:32:50.609 --> 00:32:52.130
Did they tease Shadow already? They teased Shadow.

00:32:52.369 --> 00:32:53.589
That's an after -credits thing. So the question

00:32:53.589 --> 00:32:56.490
that Andre and I have... Hold off. Can we finish

00:32:56.490 --> 00:32:59.170
the movie? Are we still off this thing? What's

00:32:59.170 --> 00:33:00.970
that? Oh, okay. Are we going to give a rating

00:33:00.970 --> 00:33:02.569
first and then we'll talk about it? Yes, that's

00:33:02.569 --> 00:33:05.490
what I was thinking, right? So, I guess... In

00:33:05.490 --> 00:33:08.230
conclusion... In conclusion... This is... Sonic

00:33:08.230 --> 00:33:11.470
2 is just more bigger, better Sonic 1. I mean...

00:33:11.470 --> 00:33:13.190
But with less video games. Sometimes... I mean,

00:33:13.190 --> 00:33:15.009
if you try to follow the narrative, it's just

00:33:15.009 --> 00:33:18.640
dumb as a... dumb as bricks, but every time I

00:33:18.640 --> 00:33:20.000
was about to check out of the movie, I'm like,

00:33:20.059 --> 00:33:22.200
okay, I'm kind of over this. They had a cute

00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:24.619
little reference to the video games and just

00:33:24.619 --> 00:33:27.400
seeing Tails use his little, use his tails to

00:33:27.400 --> 00:33:30.339
do the propeller thing to hold up Sonic and carry

00:33:30.339 --> 00:33:32.119
him around. I'm like, oh, I've seen this on the

00:33:32.119 --> 00:33:34.319
big screen. Very heartwarming and I really like

00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:36.660
it a lot. That's awesome, yeah. So I will give

00:33:36.660 --> 00:33:40.220
this three Chaos Emeralds out of five. Ooh, okay.

00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:46.680
We'll give it a 3 .5. smash wedding cake out

00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:50.240
of five okay okay all right so now can we talk

00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:52.400
about the answer yes all right question to you

00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:55.140
guys who's gonna voice shadow the hedgehog that's

00:33:55.140 --> 00:33:57.980
what i want to know yeah so i learned something

00:33:57.980 --> 00:34:01.160
today while looking at imdb jason momoa was in

00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:03.900
consideration to play knuckles but had to back

00:34:03.900 --> 00:34:06.759
out due to obligations for aquaman And according

00:34:06.759 --> 00:34:09.539
to this IMDb trivia fact, which doesn't have

00:34:09.539 --> 00:34:13.000
any credentials backing it up, he's now in consideration

00:34:13.000 --> 00:34:15.900
for Shadow. He'd be a good choice. I think he

00:34:15.900 --> 00:34:18.440
would be good. I told Andre last night, not knowing

00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:20.599
the Jason Momoa component, they should get the

00:34:20.599 --> 00:34:23.119
voice actor who voices Vegeta in the American

00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:27.900
Dove for Dragon Ball Z to be Shadow. Okay. He's

00:34:27.900 --> 00:34:31.460
on Critical Role. He's free. Yeah, sure. Is Christopher

00:34:31.460 --> 00:34:33.429
Sabat on Critical Role? I thought you told me

00:34:33.429 --> 00:34:35.429
it was uncritical. No, no, that's virile. We

00:34:35.429 --> 00:34:37.250
were talking about it. We should get that guy

00:34:37.250 --> 00:34:39.650
on. Sam Riegel? You want Sam Riegel? Sam Riegel

00:34:39.650 --> 00:34:43.010
or Christopher Sedat. Okay. Okay. My pick is

00:34:43.010 --> 00:34:45.510
Jon Bernthal. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, he

00:34:45.510 --> 00:34:47.769
was telling me that last night. I just saw one

00:34:47.769 --> 00:34:51.489
that just made me intrigued. For context, Claire,

00:34:51.570 --> 00:34:54.090
Shadow is literally just mean, angry Sonic. He's

00:34:54.090 --> 00:34:59.199
mega Sonic. He has a gun. No option. He's a hedgehog

00:34:59.199 --> 00:35:00.559
with a gun. He did have a gun. He had a gun.

00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:03.000
I need to... Oh, my God. Sonic the Hedgehog.

00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:06.280
Sounds like we need to watch the Shadow the Hedgehog

00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:09.760
intro cutscene. Yes. Oh. Yes. It's very good.

00:35:09.840 --> 00:35:11.539
It needs to happen. Is that where he almost fucks

00:35:11.539 --> 00:35:14.099
a human? No. That's Sonic the Hedgehog 2006?

00:35:14.780 --> 00:35:17.579
06, yeah. It got real weird there. Yeah, it did.

00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:21.960
Yeah. So I was just Googling who voices Shadow

00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:25.599
in Sonic 3, and somebody had made a YouTube video

00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:29.360
that is 35 minutes long. Why Keanu Reeves should

00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:32.980
be Shadow the Hedgehog. Oh my God. I would buy

00:35:32.980 --> 00:35:36.860
it. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. I'm in. Yeah. Yeah,

00:35:36.900 --> 00:35:39.260
I'm thinking I'm back. Like, let's fucking go.

00:35:39.260 --> 00:35:42.699
Let's John Wick Shadow the Hedgehog. Yeah. Yes.

00:35:42.820 --> 00:35:45.260
It was so obvious. How did I not think of this

00:35:45.260 --> 00:35:47.170
before? I know, you're a fool. I'm not going

00:35:47.170 --> 00:35:50.389
to watch the 35 -minute video. But you kind of

00:35:50.389 --> 00:35:53.489
want to. I kind of want to. Color me curious.

00:35:53.730 --> 00:35:55.909
He's already voicing Batman in that DC Pets movie.

00:35:56.050 --> 00:35:58.909
It's true. Which we saw Travis Hart. Oh, yeah,

00:35:58.969 --> 00:36:01.489
he is Batman. He's voicing Batman, not the Pets.

00:36:01.489 --> 00:36:05.849
Because Ace was Kevin Hart. Ace is Kevin Hart?

00:36:06.190 --> 00:36:08.289
Yeah. You didn't notice that in the trailer?

00:36:08.389 --> 00:36:09.869
No, no, no, no. There's a lot of Kevin Hart in

00:36:09.869 --> 00:36:11.070
that trailer. No, no, I'm having the realization,

00:36:11.329 --> 00:36:15.250
oh, that was Ace. Yeah, yeah. I saw that trailer.

00:36:15.630 --> 00:36:19.409
is the rock the rock yeah the rock part of that

00:36:19.409 --> 00:36:21.750
and then I think John Krasinski is Superman right

00:36:21.960 --> 00:36:24.679
Yes. John Krasinski is Superman. And that's a

00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:27.099
good pick. So on the note of before we move on

00:36:27.099 --> 00:36:29.059
very quickly we did see a number of trailers

00:36:29.059 --> 00:36:33.639
before Sonic. What's coming? Well there's this

00:36:33.639 --> 00:36:37.199
movie called Family Camp that looks just dumb

00:36:37.199 --> 00:36:40.480
as bricks. I thought it was a Jesus movie but

00:36:40.480 --> 00:36:43.019
it's not according to Andre. This family decides

00:36:43.019 --> 00:36:45.920
to bond and they go to this camp but they didn't

00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:47.900
pay so they end up in a yurt with this other

00:36:47.900 --> 00:36:50.239
family and their dad and other dads then the

00:36:50.239 --> 00:36:52.940
dad of the other family gets in the woods and

00:36:52.940 --> 00:36:54.880
suddenly they're naked and wearing other people's

00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:58.440
clothes and shenanigans. It looked dumb as fuck.

00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:00.639
Oh, I get a little taster of the window? Yeah,

00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:03.300
please. Enjoy. And then we also saw a trailer

00:37:03.300 --> 00:37:08.539
for The Bad Guys, which looks quite... like the

00:37:08.539 --> 00:37:10.920
art style for it i like the art style i just

00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:13.679
dreamworks is bad guys and then finally nickelodeon

00:37:13.679 --> 00:37:17.000
has a new is producing a new film which i guess

00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:18.599
they haven't produced an animated film in quite

00:37:18.599 --> 00:37:20.820
some time and i can't remember what it's called

00:37:20.820 --> 00:37:22.599
but it just made me want to watch kung fu panda

00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:24.900
because it's about a dog who wants to be a samurai

00:37:24.900 --> 00:37:28.150
oh yeah dog the last dog samurai is kind of the

00:37:28.150 --> 00:37:30.349
vibe that I got, right? Once again, just watch

00:37:30.349 --> 00:37:33.369
Kung Fu Panda if you're itching for an appropriation

00:37:33.369 --> 00:37:36.670
of an Asian culture. What was the... With animals.

00:37:36.969 --> 00:37:39.170
There's a samurai movie where the main character's

00:37:39.170 --> 00:37:42.449
name is Dog and he wants to be a samurai and

00:37:42.449 --> 00:37:44.469
he's played by Forrest Whitaker. Well, it can't

00:37:44.469 --> 00:37:46.449
be this movie because this one, the dog's named

00:37:46.449 --> 00:37:49.000
Hank. This is like 2002 or something like that.

00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:51.860
I don't know. Well, actually, a lot of people

00:37:51.860 --> 00:37:54.440
say it's great because it's like Seven Samurais

00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:56.960
kind of thing. Oh, yeah? It's like a Kurosawa

00:37:56.960 --> 00:37:59.360
tribute almost, right? It is very loving. Hang

00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:01.280
on, I'm looking it up. Sure. Morris Whitaker

00:38:01.280 --> 00:38:04.300
IMDB. Let's go. I think his name was Dog. That's

00:38:04.300 --> 00:38:06.260
what threw me off. That's better than Hank, the

00:38:06.260 --> 00:38:09.699
dog who wants to be a samurai. I was like, Andre,

00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:11.920
is that Elijah Wood or Michael Cera? No, I'm

00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:14.920
like, it's Michael Cera, yeah. Ghost Dog, The

00:38:14.920 --> 00:38:19.539
Way of the Samurai, 1999. Ghost Dog. 83 % on

00:38:19.539 --> 00:38:22.139
Rotten Tomato. Ghost Dog. I've never heard of

00:38:22.139 --> 00:38:24.639
this movie. It apparently was awesome. Ghost

00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:26.880
Dog is a contract killer, a master of his trade,

00:38:27.019 --> 00:38:29.280
who can whirl a gun at warp speed and moves through

00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:32.280
this world like a phantom. Stealthy and evanescent.

00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:34.519
It's not animated, by the way. No, I know. No,

00:38:34.519 --> 00:38:36.380
it's live action. Yeah, no. We had it in our

00:38:36.380 --> 00:38:38.719
head that it was like, oh, he's voicing another...

00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:40.539
In the spirit of the samurai, he has pledged

00:38:40.539 --> 00:38:42.900
his loyalty to a small -time mobster named Louie

00:38:42.900 --> 00:38:46.139
who saved his life many years before. But in

00:38:46.139 --> 00:38:49.579
Sonic 2, if you're a fan of Criminal Minds, Shamar...

00:38:49.579 --> 00:38:51.519
Shamar Moore, I saw you... He's in it. Yeah,

00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:54.559
yeah. He's great. Bro, holy shit. Because the

00:38:54.559 --> 00:38:57.079
fucking plot. So this is the B plot where they're

00:38:57.079 --> 00:38:59.699
all in Hawaii. It's because... Rachel's getting

00:38:59.699 --> 00:39:02.239
married. Yeah, Tika Sumter's sister is getting

00:39:02.239 --> 00:39:05.449
married. and is engaged to... Shamar Moore. Shamar

00:39:05.449 --> 00:39:07.489
Moore. Randall. Yes, Randall. Randall, okay.

00:39:07.489 --> 00:39:09.170
And this is where we mentioned that, like, we

00:39:09.170 --> 00:39:11.329
talked about this before, where, like, how they

00:39:11.329 --> 00:39:14.670
tried to make James Marsden look like the schlub,

00:39:14.750 --> 00:39:16.010
you know? Like, they insecure, like... They're

00:39:16.010 --> 00:39:17.289
playing volleyball. They're playing volleyball.

00:39:17.809 --> 00:39:19.869
And, like, Shamar Moore is shirtless. Shirtless.

00:39:20.449 --> 00:39:23.170
Shamar Moore is a very good person to make, usually,

00:39:23.250 --> 00:39:24.530
people look like schlubs. Well, like, but James

00:39:24.530 --> 00:39:26.849
Marsden still looks like Amazonish, you know

00:39:26.849 --> 00:39:28.289
what I mean? But he just, the only difference

00:39:28.289 --> 00:39:29.989
is that he has a shirt on, so you just, you can't

00:39:29.989 --> 00:39:32.530
see his massive pecs. So, they can, because there's

00:39:32.530 --> 00:39:34.769
a... like he does something with his hand and

00:39:34.769 --> 00:39:37.550
he indirectly flexes and he's like, I see you

00:39:37.550 --> 00:39:39.650
James, but I really can't get those guys. He

00:39:39.650 --> 00:39:41.369
like dives for the volleyball and he misses,

00:39:41.409 --> 00:39:43.570
but you can still see those goddamn pythons,

00:39:43.570 --> 00:39:47.550
bro. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. And he's

00:39:47.550 --> 00:39:50.170
like, oh, it's whatever. I don't know if I can

00:39:50.170 --> 00:39:52.090
keep up with this guy. I'm just kind of a normal

00:39:52.090 --> 00:39:54.469
guy. In the first movie, Rachel, the sister,

00:39:54.530 --> 00:39:56.570
really like, she kind of gets the shirt under

00:39:56.570 --> 00:39:59.070
the stick. Sonic shows up and like kind of messes

00:39:59.070 --> 00:40:01.289
with her house and destroys it. Well, like they

00:40:01.289 --> 00:40:03.829
showed it in the trailer. Like, He kind of ruins

00:40:03.829 --> 00:40:06.670
the wedding, too. Yes. Because they're snowboarding

00:40:06.670 --> 00:40:09.550
down Siberia. The wedding's not real. Right.

00:40:09.570 --> 00:40:12.250
The wedding's a fake out. He's an agent for Gunn.

00:40:12.250 --> 00:40:14.030
He's an agent for Gunn. Did you play the Sonic

00:40:14.030 --> 00:40:16.190
Adventure game? Yes. So Gunn's the thing in this

00:40:16.190 --> 00:40:18.909
movie. So that's where they drop Gunn, and then

00:40:18.909 --> 00:40:23.130
he's like... CIA, but Gunn. Yeah, CIA. Guardians.

00:40:24.329 --> 00:40:26.750
Yeah, yeah. Guardians, United Nations. They say

00:40:26.750 --> 00:40:29.590
the acronym, and then Rachel goes, really, Gunn?

00:40:29.789 --> 00:40:32.329
Yeah, like they do the... So the wedding is...

00:40:32.460 --> 00:40:35.920
farce as a front. So my favorite part of the

00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:38.539
movie is the sisters teaming up because Donna

00:40:38.539 --> 00:40:41.380
gets captured by them. So she just gets, she's

00:40:41.380 --> 00:40:43.880
just like, I'm gonna kill him. So she's just

00:40:43.880 --> 00:40:47.539
like casually chugging alcohol. She like steals

00:40:47.539 --> 00:40:50.940
a golf cart. She's like, Randall, wifey's home!

00:40:51.199 --> 00:40:52.960
And she's gunning to kill him. They're using

00:40:52.960 --> 00:40:55.159
all of Tails' inventions because Tails is knocked

00:40:55.159 --> 00:40:57.219
out cold. And they don't know what to do. And

00:40:57.219 --> 00:40:59.039
they don't know what any of the gadgets do. And

00:40:59.039 --> 00:41:01.000
she threatens Randall at gunpoint with Tails'

00:41:01.139 --> 00:41:02.750
gadget. And she doesn't know, and then, like,

00:41:02.889 --> 00:41:05.309
the dude, the head of gun is like, I don't think

00:41:05.309 --> 00:41:07.289
that's a legit threat. And then she shoots a

00:41:07.289 --> 00:41:10.869
cake and it blows it up. She's very good. And

00:41:10.869 --> 00:41:13.630
then, you know, Randall's like, it wasn't, it

00:41:13.630 --> 00:41:16.349
was never supposed to be this way. No, no, I

00:41:16.349 --> 00:41:19.559
broke the... I broke the one rule of being undercover.

00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:23.360
And I shouted at him, he fucked the bait. Well,

00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:24.679
he didn't shout because there were kids there.

00:41:25.219 --> 00:41:27.739
I said it, he fucked the bait. He said, I fell

00:41:27.739 --> 00:41:31.940
in love. He pulled Paul Walker from Fast and

00:41:31.940 --> 00:41:34.380
Furious. He did. Oh, and there was a Fast and

00:41:34.380 --> 00:41:36.840
Furious reference where there was, I think it

00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:38.940
was Knuckles who was something as old as Todd.

00:41:39.380 --> 00:41:43.260
Oh, yes. And then Sonic's Vin Diesel hating The

00:41:43.260 --> 00:41:45.219
Rock. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, because that

00:41:45.219 --> 00:41:49.489
was the... Knuckles was expositing, like, Echindas

00:41:49.489 --> 00:41:51.809
have always fought the other tribe, the Owls,

00:41:51.809 --> 00:41:54.130
that Sonic is from. And he's like, for centuries,

00:41:54.289 --> 00:41:56.369
and he's like, whoa, just like Vin Diesel and

00:41:56.369 --> 00:41:59.570
The Rock. Oh, my God. You could tell Ben Schwartz

00:41:59.570 --> 00:42:01.489
was having fun with the dumb one -liners. Oh,

00:42:01.510 --> 00:42:03.010
yeah. Yeah, and there was a genre. There was

00:42:03.010 --> 00:42:06.050
a genre. I'm sure I heard that. Yeah. But I'm

00:42:06.050 --> 00:42:07.710
sure Brendan Schwartz got some time to improv

00:42:07.710 --> 00:42:09.809
that kind of stuff. Oh, yeah. Right. I think

00:42:09.809 --> 00:42:12.130
that's what I mean. It's fun. They knew when

00:42:12.130 --> 00:42:14.289
to say, hey, this was a cute movie. Whenever

00:42:14.289 --> 00:42:17.289
I have Spawn, they want to watch it. I'm not

00:42:17.289 --> 00:42:20.349
going to be. It's not like family camps. Spawn.

00:42:20.489 --> 00:42:23.269
Yeah, Spawn. That's what they call them. All

00:42:23.269 --> 00:42:25.269
right. They're abstract. We're going to move

00:42:25.269 --> 00:42:31.030
on. We are moving on. Speaking of franchises

00:42:31.030 --> 00:42:32.929
that are doing just great in the theaters right

00:42:32.929 --> 00:42:36.670
now. Making money and not pissing off fans. Yeah,

00:42:36.750 --> 00:42:39.329
sure. Let's go with that. Sure. Yeah, sure. What

00:42:39.329 --> 00:42:41.909
is the movie we're talking about, babe? Fantastic

00:42:41.909 --> 00:42:46.489
Beasts. Fantastic Beasts, Secrets of Dumbledore.

00:42:46.530 --> 00:42:50.269
Also known as Fantastic Breasts, Three Curates

00:42:50.269 --> 00:42:53.179
of Dumbledore. I remember when there were fantastic

00:42:53.179 --> 00:42:55.460
beasts and they talk about how to find them.

00:42:55.519 --> 00:42:58.260
Yes. That doesn't happen anymore. No, they do

00:42:58.260 --> 00:43:00.199
still find some beasts. They find some beasts?

00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:04.699
There are some fantastic beasts. How's that Jacob?

00:43:04.780 --> 00:43:07.400
My favorite character. Jacob? He's my favorite.

00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:10.719
Who's Jacob? He's the human, the muggle. Well,

00:43:10.739 --> 00:43:13.500
he's not a muggle anymore. Oh, Kowalski. Kowalski.

00:43:13.500 --> 00:43:15.099
Because they call him Kowalski in this movie

00:43:15.099 --> 00:43:18.019
a lot. Jacob! He's a baker. I know, but I just

00:43:18.019 --> 00:43:20.940
forgot his name. Guys, is this movie good? No.

00:43:21.519 --> 00:43:24.159
I haven't seen it. You haven't seen it, so shut

00:43:24.159 --> 00:43:26.539
the fuck up. Yeah, like, Joe, you're pulling

00:43:26.539 --> 00:43:28.880
a mic here, you know, with the fucking, like,

00:43:28.880 --> 00:43:31.739
Star is Born shit. Come on now. I'm keeping an

00:43:31.739 --> 00:43:33.659
open mind. That's true. No, I would never have

00:43:33.659 --> 00:43:35.559
said Star is Born is bad, by the way. I just

00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:38.079
said it shouldn't win an Oscar. Is it called

00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:41.179
nose touching? No. Anyways. I thought it was

00:43:41.179 --> 00:43:44.889
good. As a Harry Potter fan. Have you seen one

00:43:44.889 --> 00:43:46.889
and two? Yes. Yes, I've seen every Harry Potter

00:43:46.889 --> 00:43:49.349
movie ever. It is the best Fantastic Beasts movie.

00:43:49.489 --> 00:43:51.510
Okay. Best of the three. I have not seen any

00:43:51.510 --> 00:43:53.530
of these movies. That one was pretty good. It

00:43:53.530 --> 00:43:55.610
was good. You're right. Now, in a Harry Potter

00:43:55.610 --> 00:43:59.809
world, it still might be lower tier or just barely

00:43:59.809 --> 00:44:02.630
above middle tier for me. I haven't thought about

00:44:02.630 --> 00:44:04.670
it this way, but I think... Is there a Harry

00:44:04.670 --> 00:44:08.400
Potter film that's worse than it? Yes. Bro, Chamber

00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:11.900
of Secrets. Whoa. Order of the Phoenix. Order

00:44:11.900 --> 00:44:13.739
of the Phoenix is pretty bad. Wasn't that your

00:44:13.739 --> 00:44:16.300
favorite? No, Goblet. Goblet is my favorite movie.

00:44:16.340 --> 00:44:20.019
I mean, Prisoner of Azkaban got destroyed by

00:44:20.019 --> 00:44:23.400
whoever edited that film. Whoa, whoa, whoa. What?

00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:25.559
Friendly Fire? Are you kidding me? I love that

00:44:25.559 --> 00:44:29.840
movie. Oh, man. They never explain what the Marauders

00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.260
are. I guess I'm biased because that's my favorite

00:44:32.260 --> 00:44:34.460
book. It's my favorite? How are you okay with

00:44:34.460 --> 00:44:38.900
the movie? I don't know. Anyways. Anyways. I

00:44:38.900 --> 00:44:40.320
thought it looked cool. I don't know. I say this

00:44:40.320 --> 00:44:42.619
is my favorite Fantastic Beasts movie. Okay.

00:44:42.719 --> 00:44:45.780
I'm not saying it's amazing like you need to

00:44:45.780 --> 00:44:47.099
drive over there. Sure, sure, sure. I'm just

00:44:47.099 --> 00:44:49.760
saying of the three, I think this is on the same

00:44:49.760 --> 00:44:51.940
level as one, maybe a little above. Sounds like

00:44:51.940 --> 00:44:55.219
they ended on a high note. Well, yeah, that's

00:44:55.219 --> 00:44:57.500
what we're going to get into. Yeah, I feel like

00:44:57.500 --> 00:45:01.039
out of the three of them. The first one was really

00:45:01.039 --> 00:45:04.340
good for me. Yes. It was a nice tight concept.

00:45:04.619 --> 00:45:07.039
Yes. And I was just so excited to have another.

00:45:07.860 --> 00:45:10.760
And the characters are fun because I saw the

00:45:10.760 --> 00:45:13.179
first one. Yes. The second one felt like side

00:45:13.179 --> 00:45:15.800
mission the movie. Yeah, I just forget about

00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:17.260
the second one. Yeah, there was just a bunch

00:45:17.260 --> 00:45:18.940
of side things where they're like, we have to

00:45:18.940 --> 00:45:21.360
go here because this thing. We have to go here

00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:23.619
because of this thing. And it felt that way.

00:45:23.679 --> 00:45:25.980
My understanding was that the second one, it

00:45:25.980 --> 00:45:28.420
ended up being less about the Fantastic Beasts

00:45:28.420 --> 00:45:30.800
and Newt Scamander, right? It was more about

00:45:30.800 --> 00:45:34.400
wizard fascists. Well, that and then like Queenie

00:45:34.400 --> 00:45:37.980
and Kowalski took the... They ruined Queenie,

00:45:38.000 --> 00:45:41.199
from what I know. Yeah. Queenie was tough in

00:45:41.199 --> 00:45:43.340
the third one, too. Well, Queenie is not the

00:45:43.340 --> 00:45:45.099
Queenie that you know from the other ones in

00:45:45.099 --> 00:45:47.739
the third movie, for sure. She's still siding

00:45:47.739 --> 00:45:51.360
with Grindelwald. She's working with him. TLDR.

00:45:51.699 --> 00:45:53.539
She's on the good side in the first film. In

00:45:53.539 --> 00:45:55.719
the second film, things happen. She can't have

00:45:55.719 --> 00:45:57.599
her way, so she decides to side with the big

00:45:57.599 --> 00:46:01.389
bad. She's definitely very much in his inner

00:46:01.389 --> 00:46:06.550
circle in the third movie. Because she can read

00:46:06.550 --> 00:46:10.650
minds. And so Grindelwald keeps sending her on

00:46:10.650 --> 00:46:13.329
missions, especially with... With people that

00:46:13.329 --> 00:46:17.710
he has come visit him. Yeah, and especially with

00:46:17.710 --> 00:46:20.090
people he doesn't necessarily trust, like the

00:46:20.090 --> 00:46:24.159
third Dumbledore brother. That being played by,

00:46:24.239 --> 00:46:27.480
so this leads into a discussion. Wait, isn't

00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:30.139
Ezra Miller? You can spoil everything for me.

00:46:30.219 --> 00:46:35.199
It is Ezra Miller. He has Aberforth's son. I

00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:36.619
don't care. I'm never going to watch any of these

00:46:36.619 --> 00:46:38.000
movies. I just forgot that it was played by Ezra

00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:39.920
Miller. Do you want spoilers or no? I don't give

00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:42.480
a shit. Okay. All right. Well, that's what we'll

00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:46.480
go into. So the reason I wanted to bring it up,

00:46:46.500 --> 00:46:50.380
it is Ezra Miller, who is the son of the second

00:46:50.380 --> 00:46:53.119
Dumbledore brother. Aberforth. Aberforth. Thank

00:46:53.119 --> 00:46:56.000
you. I couldn't remember his name. So he's Dumbledore.

00:46:56.500 --> 00:47:00.860
Albus is... He's the son of a Dumbledore. Hey,

00:47:01.079 --> 00:47:03.199
don't be smirch Dumbledore. People who haven't

00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:04.079
watched Fantastic Beasts... No, he's the son

00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:06.820
of a Dumbledore. Well, you know, like, his sister?

00:47:06.900 --> 00:47:10.360
He's a bastard. Okay. Harry Potter fans, you

00:47:10.360 --> 00:47:12.360
obviously know Aberforth if you've watched the

00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:14.659
later of the Harry Potter movies, because he

00:47:14.659 --> 00:47:18.039
has a bar and keep, I guess. Yeah, he's important

00:47:18.039 --> 00:47:21.000
in books seven and six. Yes, and Hogsmeade, and

00:47:21.000 --> 00:47:23.320
he has a tunnel to and from, and a picture of

00:47:23.320 --> 00:47:26.380
Georgiana, blah, blah, blah. Wasn't he, he gave

00:47:26.380 --> 00:47:29.380
the core three their gifts as well from Albus?

00:47:29.800 --> 00:47:33.840
like the beetle the bard and the snitch the snitch

00:47:33.840 --> 00:47:36.159
yes he's who harry kept seeing in the mirror

00:47:36.159 --> 00:47:38.239
he thought it was dumbledore's yeah right oh

00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:41.579
okay got it got it in a six yes he learned that

00:47:41.579 --> 00:47:45.440
that's his brother and there was a sister but

00:47:45.440 --> 00:47:49.239
you learn kind of more about how she died in

00:47:49.239 --> 00:47:52.000
this movie yes which is i mean it's not like

00:47:52.000 --> 00:47:54.619
pivotal but it's very interesting because it

00:47:54.619 --> 00:47:58.519
is albus's fault But she died. She was an Obscura.

00:47:59.619 --> 00:48:03.179
Which is what Ezra Miller is. Yes. His character

00:48:03.179 --> 00:48:07.579
is. Credence. Yes. So, this brings up the point,

00:48:07.599 --> 00:48:09.940
though, that I had about this movie that's not

00:48:09.940 --> 00:48:11.960
really about this movie. How many actors are

00:48:11.960 --> 00:48:15.420
no longer associated with it? No. Good point,

00:48:15.460 --> 00:48:20.239
but no. Good point. So, Ezra Miller, as we sit

00:48:20.239 --> 00:48:22.500
here now. He's having a bit of a hard time. He

00:48:22.500 --> 00:48:25.079
got arrested twice. Just a bit of a hard time.

00:48:25.389 --> 00:48:27.409
So far, twice. I don't want to be that guy, but

00:48:27.409 --> 00:48:29.710
Ezra Miller's preferred pronouns are they, them.

00:48:29.869 --> 00:48:33.630
They are having a bit of a hard time. So, they,

00:48:33.769 --> 00:48:38.469
them has been arrested twice. They were also

00:48:38.469 --> 00:48:43.349
called seven times in the last three weeks to

00:48:43.349 --> 00:48:46.489
the police. Right. They are having a very hard

00:48:46.489 --> 00:48:49.369
time. Not a good look for them. So, my question

00:48:49.369 --> 00:48:54.170
is this. What is his celebrity level? They. What

00:48:54.170 --> 00:49:00.170
is their celebrity level? Do they face consequences

00:49:00.170 --> 00:49:03.829
for their actions? Or are they going to be able

00:49:03.829 --> 00:49:06.570
to get off with it? And the reason I bring this

00:49:06.570 --> 00:49:09.389
up is somebody like Alec Baldwin, for example.

00:49:09.550 --> 00:49:12.130
Sure. This whole thing happened with Rust where

00:49:12.130 --> 00:49:15.670
he killed someone. But it feels like Alec Baldwin.

00:49:15.769 --> 00:49:19.139
I have this sickening feeling in my gut. That

00:49:19.139 --> 00:49:21.260
he's going to get off with it. Yes. Or like community

00:49:21.260 --> 00:49:23.519
service slap on the wrist. Well, that's a little.

00:49:23.619 --> 00:49:25.139
How much involvement he had with the behind the

00:49:25.139 --> 00:49:27.719
scenes. I would say that's a much more complicated

00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:30.420
situation. Yeah. Right. Right. Given that it

00:49:30.420 --> 00:49:32.280
was a prop on a set, et cetera, et cetera, et

00:49:32.280 --> 00:49:34.960
cetera. But a set he ran. Yeah, absolutely. No,

00:49:35.000 --> 00:49:36.440
no, no, no. I'm not saying that. And he was apparently

00:49:36.440 --> 00:49:38.980
goofing around when this happened. Sure. Okay.

00:49:39.019 --> 00:49:44.400
But I'm saying. There's a very different situation.

00:49:44.860 --> 00:49:47.739
This is not a court. Mike is saying at the very

00:49:47.739 --> 00:49:51.000
basic level, if you take all the extra stuff

00:49:51.000 --> 00:49:53.639
out of it. I think Alec Baldwin will not make

00:49:53.639 --> 00:49:56.219
another movie for quite some time. But he'll

00:49:56.219 --> 00:49:58.380
still get to make one. He will eventually make

00:49:58.380 --> 00:50:01.440
another film. Ezra Miller has been arrested.

00:50:03.550 --> 00:50:05.590
And we know that they committed assaults, you

00:50:05.590 --> 00:50:07.829
know what I mean? Multiple times in a short amount

00:50:07.829 --> 00:50:11.130
of time. And I'm pretty sure there's clear malice

00:50:11.130 --> 00:50:12.769
with those actions. It also begs the question

00:50:12.769 --> 00:50:15.889
of, you know, this is just a short amount of

00:50:15.889 --> 00:50:17.610
time that this has happened. So, like, we don't

00:50:17.610 --> 00:50:19.710
know what's going on in their life that caused

00:50:19.710 --> 00:50:22.409
it. So, yeah, it sounds like they're having a

00:50:22.409 --> 00:50:24.489
hard time. But it also begs the question, like.

00:50:25.159 --> 00:50:28.639
Have they gotten away with a lot more in L .A.

00:50:28.800 --> 00:50:34.059
or wherever they live? I don't think Ezra Miller

00:50:34.059 --> 00:50:38.460
is untouchable in this situation. I think there

00:50:38.460 --> 00:50:40.969
will be consequences. I do not think... I think

00:50:40.969 --> 00:50:43.730
Flashpoint's going to come out. I think this

00:50:43.730 --> 00:50:45.889
is going to be released and just thrown to the

00:50:45.889 --> 00:50:50.130
wolves. What I was going to say is I don't think

00:50:50.130 --> 00:50:51.809
they're going to get signed on for a franchise

00:50:51.809 --> 00:50:53.989
deal. What I remember getting reading was that

00:50:53.989 --> 00:50:56.869
Warner Brothers had an emergency meetings essentially

00:50:56.869 --> 00:51:00.289
about the first arrest for Ezra Miller. Now the

00:51:00.289 --> 00:51:03.989
second. Basically what Andre said, Flashpoint

00:51:03.989 --> 00:51:05.690
will come out because it is filmed and they cannot

00:51:05.690 --> 00:51:07.409
hold this film back for much longer otherwise

00:51:08.170 --> 00:51:11.110
The risk of irrelevancy is there. And they will

00:51:11.110 --> 00:51:14.670
quietly replace Ezra Miller with somebody else.

00:51:14.710 --> 00:51:17.809
I know the fans really want the TV series. Grant

00:51:17.809 --> 00:51:19.849
Gustin. Yeah, the TV series. And I was going

00:51:19.849 --> 00:51:23.349
to say, quick aside because we're running over.

00:51:23.550 --> 00:51:27.820
We are. Grant Gustin. TV Flash. On the Flash.

00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:31.079
Got it. Yes, no, Grant Gustin should be the Flash.

00:51:31.360 --> 00:51:33.960
Oh, yeah. Sure, why not? I don't care. It's a

00:51:33.960 --> 00:51:37.579
logical option. I'm not saying he's a fine actor,

00:51:37.619 --> 00:51:39.719
I guess, but the CW shows are not a good barometer

00:51:39.719 --> 00:51:41.440
for quality, in my opinion. No, it's not, but

00:51:41.440 --> 00:51:43.980
there's a way that they could do some post -production

00:51:43.980 --> 00:51:49.190
edits. Also, second, seventh sidebar. didn't

00:51:49.190 --> 00:51:50.889
they just, like, isn't there, like, rumors that,

00:51:50.929 --> 00:51:52.769
like, DC wants to over, or Warner Brothers, rather,

00:51:52.829 --> 00:51:54.809
I guess, wants to totally overhaul DC. Like,

00:51:54.829 --> 00:51:57.309
they want to get a Kevin Feige type to rein it

00:51:57.309 --> 00:51:59.250
all in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They were like, oh,

00:51:59.329 --> 00:52:01.670
they're looking for a Kevin Feige type person.

00:52:01.710 --> 00:52:03.690
I'm like, okay, great. Like, that's like saying

00:52:03.690 --> 00:52:05.989
I want a Steph Curry type person for my basketball

00:52:05.989 --> 00:52:09.030
team. Great. Sure, I'm sure everyone does. That's

00:52:09.030 --> 00:52:10.789
great, yeah, but how are you going to get it?

00:52:10.829 --> 00:52:12.909
Yeah, right. I think DC needs, I think Warner

00:52:12.909 --> 00:52:15.349
Brothers needs to let go of a DC cinematic universe,

00:52:15.449 --> 00:52:18.099
and I know with that, press release that andre's

00:52:18.099 --> 00:52:20.380
referring to they said they want to focus more

00:52:20.380 --> 00:52:23.860
on films like the joker which are like stand

00:52:23.860 --> 00:52:26.739
intentionally standalone right how many of those

00:52:26.739 --> 00:52:28.260
can they make before they're like the key part

00:52:28.260 --> 00:52:30.639
is they want to revive they want to revitalize

00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:33.599
key characters like superman i'm very excited

00:52:33.599 --> 00:52:35.699
by that i hope that they do i'm still hoping

00:52:35.699 --> 00:52:38.480
for a black superman Sure. Michael B. Jordan.

00:52:38.699 --> 00:52:41.480
Yeah, Michael B. Jordan. Dude, yes. I want, it

00:52:41.480 --> 00:52:44.460
doesn't matter what, like, it doesn't matter

00:52:44.460 --> 00:52:46.820
who plays him, I want a Superman that's optimistic

00:52:46.820 --> 00:52:48.219
about humanity. That's what I want. Yeah, maybe

00:52:48.219 --> 00:52:50.559
the guy from Bridgerton, Reggie something or

00:52:50.559 --> 00:52:53.000
other. Reggie, Sean Page. Yeah, put him in as

00:52:53.000 --> 00:52:56.019
Superman and his sexy five eyes. back to Fantastic

00:52:56.019 --> 00:52:57.159
Beasts. Sorry, we were talking about Harry Potter,

00:52:57.219 --> 00:52:59.079
weren't we? Yes, we were. We gotta get back to

00:52:59.079 --> 00:53:00.880
it just so we can finish the episode. We are

00:53:00.880 --> 00:53:02.300
not going to do Cash or Trash at this point.

00:53:02.619 --> 00:53:04.440
I'm telling you guys right now. We've been rambling.

00:53:04.659 --> 00:53:09.030
We are at over an hour. Woo! And we also have

00:53:09.030 --> 00:53:11.449
dinner reservations sometime in the near future.

00:53:11.590 --> 00:53:15.010
We do. Maybe. Yeah, I know. But I'm just letting

00:53:15.010 --> 00:53:17.889
you know. I thought it was good as a fan of the

00:53:17.889 --> 00:53:20.869
Harry Potter series. It got a lot more political,

00:53:20.989 --> 00:53:23.389
too. It's a lot more political. It is dark. But

00:53:23.389 --> 00:53:26.829
all the movies have been dark for a while. That's

00:53:26.829 --> 00:53:29.170
not a new thing. So this is like a preamble to

00:53:29.170 --> 00:53:31.670
World War II, right? Yes, it's like right around

00:53:31.670 --> 00:53:32.989
the time of World War II. And you can definitely

00:53:32.989 --> 00:53:35.809
see echoes of that in the movie. So you know

00:53:35.809 --> 00:53:37.710
what? I forgot about that. And now that you say

00:53:37.710 --> 00:53:40.110
that, even more so. Yeah, because it's like the

00:53:40.110 --> 00:53:44.210
30s, right? Yeah. 30s, like... edging on 40s

00:53:44.210 --> 00:53:45.530
and you can definitely like there are scenes

00:53:45.530 --> 00:53:48.170
where you're like yep they're in Germany they're

00:53:48.170 --> 00:53:49.829
at like dinners and stuff and it's definitely

00:53:49.829 --> 00:53:52.050
like Third Reich -ish. That's why Grindelwald

00:53:52.050 --> 00:53:53.670
is doing what he's doing is because he knows

00:53:53.670 --> 00:53:58.039
about what's coming. He wants to stop World War

00:53:58.039 --> 00:54:01.820
II by doing his own version of it. He wants to

00:54:01.820 --> 00:54:05.099
start a war between muggles and wizards. And

00:54:05.099 --> 00:54:08.460
he wants to destroy the muggle world. He wants

00:54:08.460 --> 00:54:14.179
to commit muggle genocide. He wants the wizard

00:54:14.179 --> 00:54:17.719
to reign supreme. I mean, okay. Yeah, alright.

00:54:17.900 --> 00:54:20.280
Yeah, and so that's the whole thing. In this

00:54:20.280 --> 00:54:23.119
particular movie, there are two people that are

00:54:23.119 --> 00:54:27.300
up for the director of the Ministry of Magic.

00:54:27.900 --> 00:54:32.800
And Grindelwald becomes the third runner in this

00:54:32.800 --> 00:54:34.719
race. That's very German history right there.

00:54:35.059 --> 00:54:37.860
That's... Yeah, because he was like magically...

00:54:37.860 --> 00:54:42.800
He was like, you know... I don't know, released

00:54:42.800 --> 00:54:47.340
from all of his skepticism. This is who Mads

00:54:47.340 --> 00:54:49.719
Mikkelsen is playing, right? Yes. He's recused

00:54:49.719 --> 00:54:53.619
by Colin Farrell and Johnny Depp. He's been recused

00:54:53.619 --> 00:54:56.320
of all of his crimes. Yes. Words are hard. That's

00:54:56.320 --> 00:54:58.940
right. And that was the launching point. How

00:54:58.940 --> 00:55:01.480
is Mads in this? I like Mads a lot. He's like

00:55:01.480 --> 00:55:03.880
the perfect evil person. Sure. Literally, I have

00:55:03.880 --> 00:55:06.360
reimagined every villain at this point as Mads

00:55:06.360 --> 00:55:09.139
Mikkelsen. I want to see an image of Mads Mikkelsen

00:55:09.139 --> 00:55:11.619
smiling because I cannot imagine it in my brain.

00:55:11.820 --> 00:55:14.519
cannibal. He smiles a lot. He's creepy. I did

00:55:14.519 --> 00:55:17.019
watch that. Bro there's a teaser trailer for

00:55:17.019 --> 00:55:19.739
Death Stranding where he smiles creepily villainously

00:55:19.739 --> 00:55:22.460
but he smiles there. Do you think they'll make

00:55:22.460 --> 00:55:24.840
the other so with the Fantastic Beasts they were

00:55:24.840 --> 00:55:26.840
supposed to have five films. Yes. The Secrets

00:55:26.840 --> 00:55:29.960
of Dumble 4 is not coming. Yeah I feel like Mike

00:55:29.960 --> 00:55:32.059
and I were talking about before we even went

00:55:32.059 --> 00:55:35.079
and saw this movie. There was like talk of like

00:55:35.079 --> 00:55:37.019
oh it could be a big cliffhanger because what

00:55:37.019 --> 00:55:39.219
if another movie is not made. I think that they

00:55:39.219 --> 00:55:41.500
wrapped up this movie very well. so that if it

00:55:41.500 --> 00:55:44.940
happens to be the last movie for a while, it

00:55:44.940 --> 00:55:48.059
ends fine. That's what I heard, that they went

00:55:48.059 --> 00:55:49.880
out of their way to tie up the loose ends. Yeah,

00:55:49.880 --> 00:55:52.820
but they could easily have another movie if they

00:55:52.820 --> 00:55:54.400
need to. The rumors are that Warner Brothers

00:55:54.400 --> 00:55:56.019
is waiting and seeing how this movie performs.

00:55:56.079 --> 00:55:58.079
Yeah, I think they probably will. Well, and it's

00:55:58.079 --> 00:56:00.539
the worst opening for a Harry Potter movie ever.

00:56:00.579 --> 00:56:04.960
Well, Sonic 2 beat it out on its second weekend

00:56:04.960 --> 00:56:08.099
when it came out. Fully, I'm expecting it's over.

00:56:08.239 --> 00:56:12.000
Yeah. Me too. Not the Wizarding World. No. No

00:56:12.000 --> 00:56:14.420
way. But the Fantastic Beasts. They're probably...

00:56:14.420 --> 00:56:16.699
I've heard... discussion about what they're eventually

00:56:16.699 --> 00:56:18.039
they're going to wait some time and they're going

00:56:18.039 --> 00:56:20.480
to do some we're going to get a Bellatrix Lestrange

00:56:20.480 --> 00:56:23.800
we are right so I mean like first off like they're

00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:25.920
coming out with Hogwarts Legacy that the prequel

00:56:25.920 --> 00:56:27.500
video game is going to come out I honestly think

00:56:27.500 --> 00:56:29.500
it's going to do huge yeah it's going to do very

00:56:29.500 --> 00:56:32.639
well it's going to set in the early 1900s and

00:56:32.639 --> 00:56:35.699
that brings it back yeah and it's going to set

00:56:35.699 --> 00:56:37.960
up whatever the next movie is well even if it

00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:39.440
doesn't right like that's like what you want

00:56:39.440 --> 00:56:41.420
out of a Harry Potter video it's like open world

00:56:41.420 --> 00:56:43.900
Harry Potter like open world Hogwarts game do

00:56:43.900 --> 00:56:45.440
whatever like you know Go to classes. People

00:56:45.440 --> 00:56:47.539
love Hogwarts. People love Hogwarts. Exactly.

00:56:47.840 --> 00:56:49.980
I have a question and a comment. So the comment

00:56:49.980 --> 00:56:52.320
I have is one with whatever the future of the

00:56:52.320 --> 00:56:54.800
Wizarding World is, it's similar to the Star

00:56:54.800 --> 00:56:56.980
Wars. They need to let go of Harry Potter. I

00:56:56.980 --> 00:56:58.980
don't care about any of the connected tissue

00:56:58.980 --> 00:57:00.659
that brings us to Harry Potter. I don't need

00:57:00.659 --> 00:57:03.599
Dumbledore. I don't need any of that connected

00:57:03.599 --> 00:57:05.280
tissue. It's very telling that A, this movie

00:57:05.280 --> 00:57:07.219
is called Secrets of Dumbledore, and B, all of

00:57:07.219 --> 00:57:10.659
the marketing that I've seen is a clip of Dumbledore.

00:57:10.860 --> 00:57:13.489
Played by Jude Law. well no not even well yes

00:57:13.489 --> 00:57:16.030
but the commercial is like a clip from the old

00:57:16.030 --> 00:57:18.670
movies and it's just like oh well it's a quote

00:57:18.670 --> 00:57:20.010
about memories or something like that and it

00:57:20.010 --> 00:57:22.469
shows old Dumbledore looking back at Jude Law

00:57:22.469 --> 00:57:25.389
and it's like oh like you Newt isn't even in

00:57:25.389 --> 00:57:28.769
this promo so that's my question not Newt is

00:57:28.769 --> 00:57:33.630
Trina in this Trina was Queenie's sister Queenie's

00:57:33.630 --> 00:57:36.829
sister no like for less than five minutes so

00:57:36.829 --> 00:57:41.289
that actress Sam Waterson's Daughter. Like Law

00:57:41.289 --> 00:57:44.050
and Order. Sam Waterston. I know who that is.

00:57:44.289 --> 00:57:46.449
Oh, that Law and Order. I was thinking of another

00:57:46.449 --> 00:57:49.570
one. Something Waterston. Lady Waterston. Lady

00:57:49.570 --> 00:57:52.510
Waterston. I'll get it for you. So prior to the

00:57:52.510 --> 00:57:55.010
film coming out, a lot of Harry Potter and Eagle

00:57:55.010 --> 00:57:57.110
Eye fans were like, wait a minute, because she's

00:57:57.110 --> 00:57:59.050
very important in the first film. That's kind

00:57:59.050 --> 00:58:02.750
of what brings it all together. And since J .K.

00:58:02.829 --> 00:58:04.090
Rowling came out with her chances. Katherine

00:58:04.090 --> 00:58:06.719
Waterston. Since J .K. Rowling came out with

00:58:06.719 --> 00:58:09.480
her stances, Katherine Watterson has progressively

00:58:09.480 --> 00:58:12.340
tried to separate herself. Well, I think that

00:58:12.340 --> 00:58:13.940
kind of blinds out a lot of people that are working

00:58:13.940 --> 00:58:16.000
on various Harry Potter projects. Oh, it blinds

00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:18.460
out the fandom. So, well, absolutely. Well, and

00:58:18.460 --> 00:58:20.320
I want to call out real quick that, like, the

00:58:20.320 --> 00:58:23.159
Harry Potter devs, or the Hogwarts Odyssey devs,

00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:26.039
they've purposely, whatever, I'm capitulating

00:58:26.039 --> 00:58:27.260
here, I guess. J .K.'s always going to get money,

00:58:27.400 --> 00:58:29.710
but. They made it so that you can be whatever

00:58:29.710 --> 00:58:31.710
gender you want in Hogwarts Legacy. You can have,

00:58:31.710 --> 00:58:34.690
you can have, whatever. They've made a point

00:58:34.690 --> 00:58:36.730
to say during character creation. Gender is not

00:58:36.730 --> 00:58:39.349
a factor. And what I see here is she's going

00:58:39.349 --> 00:58:41.550
to get money no matter what happens of the next

00:58:41.550 --> 00:58:43.989
Wizarding World movie, but she's no longer going

00:58:43.989 --> 00:58:46.690
to be connected. No, I think that the studio

00:58:46.690 --> 00:58:48.730
is not going to have her write anything. The

00:58:48.730 --> 00:58:51.909
only reason she still was on this one is because

00:58:51.909 --> 00:58:54.630
she still wrote Fantastic Beasts, so you had

00:58:54.630 --> 00:58:55.989
to have her included. And contract obligations

00:58:55.989 --> 00:58:57.889
were existing. Well, right, I think she was signed

00:58:57.889 --> 00:58:59.869
up for five movies, right? Yeah, exactly. So

00:58:59.869 --> 00:59:02.170
she may still get two movies somewhere in there.

00:59:02.539 --> 00:59:05.260
But I can't really imagine. To be honest, I really

00:59:05.260 --> 00:59:08.099
can't. But even that, I mean, I think even she

00:59:08.099 --> 00:59:10.500
would walk away at this point. Because she just

00:59:10.500 --> 00:59:13.679
gets money. Now she can just get money from the

00:59:13.679 --> 00:59:16.559
property without doing shit. And she will. Yeah.

00:59:16.820 --> 00:59:18.699
Except keep opening her mouth and saying horrible

00:59:18.699 --> 00:59:21.000
things. She shouldn't. Death of the author. No,

00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:24.059
exactly. And this is why my favorite book series

00:59:24.059 --> 00:59:27.679
is their author is dead. Yeah. Jake, I love you,

00:59:27.699 --> 00:59:29.940
Tolkien, but I'm happy you're in the group. Yeah,

00:59:29.980 --> 00:59:32.739
well, right. How many women are in Lord of the

00:59:32.739 --> 00:59:36.460
Rings? I'm a huge Lovecraft fan, but I hate Lovecraft.

00:59:36.460 --> 00:59:38.920
Oh, God. Well, Lovecraft is much more obvious,

00:59:38.980 --> 00:59:41.719
but it's a blessing that Tolkien never had a

00:59:41.719 --> 00:59:43.219
Twitter account, and that's what I will say,

00:59:43.360 --> 00:59:45.360
right? It's a blessing Lovecraft never did either.

00:59:45.440 --> 00:59:49.420
Yeah, exactly. Yes. I think if they're going

00:59:49.420 --> 00:59:50.500
to make another Harry Potter movie, they're going

00:59:50.500 --> 00:59:51.880
to bring one of the core three back. I think,

00:59:51.920 --> 00:59:55.000
I know Daniel Radcliffe said he's done. Um, but

00:59:55.000 --> 00:59:57.199
like you bring back Hermione, you bring back.

00:59:57.260 --> 01:00:02.340
I think he's down. I don't know. Emma Watson's

01:00:02.340 --> 01:00:04.320
not going to come back. Or Draco. Whatever. Did

01:00:04.320 --> 01:00:05.440
you see them return to Hogwarts? Like that special?

01:00:05.980 --> 01:00:08.780
No. I watch it, and I kind of feel, I mean, because

01:00:08.780 --> 01:00:11.000
Rupert Grint has that, whatever, that apple tea,

01:00:11.039 --> 01:00:14.639
the, no, Servant? Severance? No, Servant. He's

01:00:14.639 --> 01:00:16.719
done Servant. I was going to say, wait, what?

01:00:16.800 --> 01:00:18.559
There's Severance, and there's Servant. Yeah,

01:00:18.579 --> 01:00:20.440
he's got, like, his own thing going on. Last

01:00:20.440 --> 01:00:22.119
time I heard about Rupert Grint, he had an ice

01:00:22.119 --> 01:00:23.880
cream truck. You know what Servant is, though?

01:00:24.019 --> 01:00:24.980
I feel like they're not really going to come

01:00:24.980 --> 01:00:28.280
back. And next, Shenomena. Shenomena? Did you

01:00:28.280 --> 01:00:33.000
see Old? Yes. Was it good? No. Okay. Great. So,

01:00:33.320 --> 01:00:35.059
whatever. The core three are doing their own

01:00:35.059 --> 01:00:37.059
things right now. You're skeptical. I don't think

01:00:37.059 --> 01:00:38.420
that they'll come back. Daniel Radcliffe and

01:00:38.420 --> 01:00:40.400
Emma Watson have on record said they would not

01:00:40.400 --> 01:00:42.760
come back. Yes. Well, right. But I think that

01:00:42.760 --> 01:00:44.480
if I'm the studio, I'm going to try to find a

01:00:44.480 --> 01:00:45.900
way to bring it back to Hogwarts and bring it

01:00:45.900 --> 01:00:47.179
back to... Yeah, they're going to do Cursed Child.

01:00:47.280 --> 01:00:50.360
Oh, this person is Harry's... They're going to

01:00:50.360 --> 01:00:52.860
do Cursed Child bullshit. Well, this is why I

01:00:52.860 --> 01:00:54.559
said we're going to give Bellatrix a strange

01:00:54.559 --> 01:00:57.670
origin story. Who needs that? Nobody! But we

01:00:57.670 --> 01:01:00.070
didn't need Cruella either and Cruella outperformed

01:01:00.070 --> 01:01:02.130
everything. You know, Cruella had like 60 years

01:01:02.130 --> 01:01:04.210
on Bellatrix. I don't think, yeah, you're right.

01:01:04.309 --> 01:01:07.030
I don't think the Wizarding World is done nearly.

01:01:07.230 --> 01:01:10.989
No, no, no. Harry Potter will continue to be

01:01:10.989 --> 01:01:15.170
a thing in some either film or TV series format.

01:01:15.170 --> 01:01:17.010
Well, think about it. If they recreate it like...

01:01:17.230 --> 01:01:20.710
people like our age like i we grew up at the

01:01:20.710 --> 01:01:22.670
age of harry potter like i grew up with the age

01:01:22.670 --> 01:01:25.190
of harry potter i was very into it so like whenever

01:01:25.190 --> 01:01:29.489
we have kids i'm like oh we should go see this

01:01:29.489 --> 01:01:32.369
yeah you'll love this like i would want to bring

01:01:32.369 --> 01:01:34.610
whatever the harry potter it is like i'm still

01:01:34.610 --> 01:01:36.730
always gonna be interested and want to see it

01:01:36.730 --> 01:01:39.230
i also do not think we'll ever see a remake of

01:01:39.230 --> 01:01:41.369
the original harry potter unless they turn it

01:01:41.369 --> 01:01:43.369
into a miniseries there should not be there shouldn't

01:01:43.369 --> 01:01:45.710
be they did it as well as they could yeah even

01:01:45.710 --> 01:01:47.389
though it kicked off the trend of part ones and

01:01:47.389 --> 01:01:51.630
part twos it did that's funny i mean like harry

01:01:51.630 --> 01:01:53.289
potter did that and then twilight did it and

01:01:53.289 --> 01:01:56.570
then and then it stopped for a while oh no hunger

01:01:56.570 --> 01:01:59.099
games right And then Diversion tried to do it.

01:01:59.159 --> 01:02:01.239
Maze Runner. Maze Runner did it. And then that's

01:02:01.239 --> 01:02:03.300
what kind of killed it. No, Diversion kicked

01:02:03.300 --> 01:02:05.920
the bucket on it. Diversion did. And then Dune

01:02:05.920 --> 01:02:09.840
brought it back, baby. Classy. Classy ad. Let's

01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:13.539
go. Dune 2023 part two. Let's go. Which didn't

01:02:13.539 --> 01:02:15.559
even market itself as a part one. Well, right,

01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:17.360
because that's very telling that Warner Brothers

01:02:17.360 --> 01:02:19.139
decided not to market it as part one because

01:02:19.139 --> 01:02:22.019
I think they knew. Like, if we say this is Dune

01:02:22.019 --> 01:02:23.980
part one, no one's going to fucking watch this

01:02:23.980 --> 01:02:26.340
movie. Anyway. Anyways. Getting away from here.

01:02:26.380 --> 01:02:29.039
It is a read. What do you guys think? Give a

01:02:29.039 --> 01:02:31.579
slap rating on it. Alright, I'm interested in

01:02:31.579 --> 01:02:33.039
your number. Is there a Niffler in this thing?

01:02:33.239 --> 01:02:36.179
Huh? Niffler? The little porcupine? Yeah. Oh

01:02:36.179 --> 01:02:38.639
yeah. There's always one of those. Niffler does

01:02:38.639 --> 01:02:41.019
not go away in the... Automatic. Niffler's like

01:02:41.019 --> 01:02:43.860
the minion. Automatic capital R. A little tree

01:02:43.860 --> 01:02:46.719
thing. A little baby group. Both of those are...

01:02:46.719 --> 01:02:49.590
If they make another one... They're iconic. to

01:02:49.590 --> 01:02:50.909
this movie. If they make another one, they will

01:02:50.909 --> 01:02:53.710
still be front and center. Those two were in

01:02:53.710 --> 01:02:56.530
every movie front and center. May Eddie Romaine

01:02:56.530 --> 01:02:59.610
finally move on from this unfortunate I actually,

01:02:59.710 --> 01:03:03.550
no, I'm with you on that. And he's done a lot.

01:03:03.829 --> 01:03:08.030
He was the best part of Jupiter Rising. I think

01:03:08.030 --> 01:03:11.369
back to Jupiter Bad. Yeah, whatever it was. No,

01:03:11.369 --> 01:03:12.969
it's Jupiter Ascending. It is Jupiter Ascending.

01:03:13.050 --> 01:03:17.130
No, Jupiter Bad. Anyways, I give it three suitcases.

01:03:17.469 --> 01:03:20.690
Three? Okay. I have a 3 .5. Ooh, is Newt Scamander's

01:03:20.690 --> 01:03:25.210
brother hot? Yes. Cool. And he has more screen

01:03:25.210 --> 01:03:27.650
time in this movie. Yes. I give it two out of

01:03:27.650 --> 01:03:30.530
five hot brothers without having seen it. Damn.

01:03:30.769 --> 01:03:34.170
Thanks, Joe, for your expert opinion. But I'm

01:03:34.170 --> 01:03:36.190
with you. I'm in love, my friend. Yeah. I am

01:03:36.190 --> 01:03:38.070
with you on Eddie Redmayne needs to get past

01:03:38.070 --> 01:03:40.750
this. Yeah. And not because of anything. He deserves

01:03:40.750 --> 01:03:43.869
better. He's still great. Yeah. Newt Scamander

01:03:43.869 --> 01:03:47.170
was pushed to the side. He does a very good move.

01:03:47.289 --> 01:03:50.070
Newt Scamander is very good. Having not seen

01:03:50.070 --> 01:03:52.110
any of these movies, the reason I have a chip

01:03:52.110 --> 01:03:54.469
on my shoulder is I'm mad about Newt Scamander.

01:03:54.710 --> 01:03:57.550
The fact that the second one came out and it's

01:03:57.550 --> 01:04:00.590
like, oh, he's barely, he's in it. And that's

01:04:00.590 --> 01:04:03.489
what I'm saying too. His Newt Scamander is amazing.

01:04:03.610 --> 01:04:07.250
But the character of Newt Scamander gets pushed

01:04:07.250 --> 01:04:10.250
to the side. He's not the hero of his story.

01:04:10.329 --> 01:04:12.230
And when they were originally pitching this idea,

01:04:12.360 --> 01:04:13.559
of like we're gonna do five movies of this thing

01:04:13.559 --> 01:04:15.500
like oh that's really cool like we're gonna we're

01:04:15.500 --> 01:04:17.820
gonna see a whole entire side like yes like i

01:04:17.820 --> 01:04:20.179
i remember the book from the the fantastic piece

01:04:20.179 --> 01:04:21.599
of where to find the book from i think was it

01:04:21.599 --> 01:04:24.059
chamber of secrets or whatever whatever they're

01:04:24.059 --> 01:04:26.199
chomping at him like oh that's a fun little tangent

01:04:26.199 --> 01:04:28.840
yeah you know that's fun i'm interested in finding

01:04:28.840 --> 01:04:30.860
out how that book was made right well and then

01:04:30.860 --> 01:04:32.780
the second movie came out it was like oh dumbledore

01:04:32.780 --> 01:04:35.179
is back in and i wish they would have done more

01:04:35.179 --> 01:04:37.639
like animal stuff because like the animals were

01:04:37.639 --> 01:04:40.500
fun yeah i want i want magical harry potter pokemon

01:04:40.500 --> 01:04:43.000
man yeah Pretty much. Gotta pet them all? Yeah.

01:04:43.179 --> 01:04:45.559
Gotta pet them all. Ain't that hard. We're gonna

01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:51.119
get Ryan Reynolds voicing Niffler. No, make him

01:04:51.119 --> 01:04:58.860
like a... What's in the third book? It's not

01:04:58.860 --> 01:05:02.699
a Hufflepuff. It's the thing. Badger? Bucky.

01:05:03.159 --> 01:05:09.420
Oh, what? Bucky? Buckbeak. Oh, Buckbeak. A griffin.

01:05:09.480 --> 01:05:11.760
No, he's a hippogriff. Hippogriff. Hippogriff.

01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:13.719
That's why I said Hufflepuff. Get Hufflepuff.

01:05:14.119 --> 01:05:17.099
Hippogriff. I want a badger. I want to get a

01:05:17.099 --> 01:05:23.519
badger. Mushroom. Mushroom. If you remember the

01:05:23.519 --> 01:05:25.920
fourth movie, they had the yule ball. They had

01:05:25.920 --> 01:05:27.820
the dance like a hippogriff song. Yeah. That

01:05:27.820 --> 01:05:31.940
song rocked. Okay. Cool. Yeah. I love Goblet

01:05:31.940 --> 01:05:33.739
of Fire, so I'm all for it. Hopefully you can

01:05:33.739 --> 01:05:36.619
do that dance in Hogwarts Legacy. Okay, go ahead.

01:05:36.699 --> 01:05:39.610
Open the ember. Do you think it's safe to dance?

01:05:39.650 --> 01:05:42.469
Anyways, R .I .P. the Fantastic Beasts franchise,

01:05:42.710 --> 01:05:47.809
most likely. And R .I .P. Credence. I... R .I

01:05:47.809 --> 01:05:50.710
.P. I would say boy, bye, but... Wait, he died?

01:05:51.230 --> 01:05:54.329
I don't know. He is assumed to have died. It's

01:05:54.329 --> 01:05:57.630
ambiguous. And also, given the real world events,

01:05:57.929 --> 01:06:00.070
come on, what? Are you kidding me? But he actually

01:06:00.070 --> 01:06:02.489
really wasn't in the movie a lot. But he's not

01:06:02.489 --> 01:06:05.280
recorded in the second movie! I know I'm very

01:06:05.280 --> 01:06:07.179
very happy but he really isn't in the third movie

01:06:07.179 --> 01:06:10.179
a lot and I don't know if that was like retroactive

01:06:10.179 --> 01:06:12.460
yes like if they went and cut him out a bunch

01:06:12.460 --> 01:06:15.940
I don't think so because all this drama is opening

01:06:15.940 --> 01:06:19.460
up way after this I think they literally they

01:06:19.460 --> 01:06:21.800
ran out of ideas with him yeah and then when

01:06:21.800 --> 01:06:23.099
they got well yeah because they did the second

01:06:23.099 --> 01:06:25.250
movie he like blew up and then everyone's like,

01:06:25.349 --> 01:06:28.090
okay, that's it. He blows up and then what else?

01:06:28.190 --> 01:06:30.289
Yeah. As in blows up as in, oh, it's revealed

01:06:30.289 --> 01:06:32.090
or like, no, he blows up. Like he's in Obscura

01:06:32.090 --> 01:06:34.369
and he gets mad and then he like, it's all like

01:06:34.369 --> 01:06:37.489
cloudy. He blows up a house. Yeah, he blows up.

01:06:37.610 --> 01:06:39.889
Okay. Everyone blows up his mom in the first

01:06:39.889 --> 01:06:42.309
one. Yeah. Right, and he finds out he's a Dumbledore

01:06:42.309 --> 01:06:44.250
and gets pissed at Dumbledore because he's like,

01:06:44.329 --> 01:06:48.349
why don't they love me? Maybe that's Ezra Miller

01:06:48.349 --> 01:06:51.070
acting out. I was about to say, Ezra Miller has

01:06:51.070 --> 01:06:52.750
darkness in their hearts. That's all I can say.

01:06:52.909 --> 01:06:56.510
Great bone structure, though. Sure, yeah. Good

01:06:56.510 --> 01:06:59.050
looking. Looks good in a dress. Looks good in

01:06:59.050 --> 01:07:02.500
pants. Well, what I was going to say was... The

01:07:02.500 --> 01:07:04.480
thing with Ezra Miller is I think they ran out

01:07:04.480 --> 01:07:07.960
of things to do with them. Sure. I think he's

01:07:07.960 --> 01:07:10.019
not the only character in that series to have

01:07:10.019 --> 01:07:12.039
had that happen. They brought in Dumbledore,

01:07:12.039 --> 01:07:15.059
which is Jude Law, who outshines him, in my opinion.

01:07:15.179 --> 01:07:17.139
And then they had Mads Mikkelsen, and they were

01:07:17.139 --> 01:07:19.400
like, we need to make Mads Mikkelsen the star

01:07:19.400 --> 01:07:21.719
because it's Mads Mikkelsen. Well, I just think,

01:07:21.739 --> 01:07:24.460
what else could they do with Credence's character?

01:07:24.480 --> 01:07:28.760
The whole second movie was about him. This movie

01:07:28.760 --> 01:07:30.820
was about getting him back to the Dumbledores.

01:07:30.820 --> 01:07:32.300
It is about him, but it's really not. It's about

01:07:32.300 --> 01:07:35.460
the other Dumbledores and the bigger story arc

01:07:35.460 --> 01:07:37.139
of Mads Mikkelsen and Grindelwald. You know how

01:07:37.139 --> 01:07:38.519
we were talking about Warner Brothers wanting

01:07:38.519 --> 01:07:40.280
to restructure the Justice League, like all of

01:07:40.280 --> 01:07:43.820
the DC stuff? It's almost like with Harry Potter,

01:07:43.900 --> 01:07:46.730
they blew that. reveal way too early i don't

01:07:46.730 --> 01:07:48.590
know i don't know where that came like why they

01:07:48.590 --> 01:07:50.909
decided that soon if they were thinking okay

01:07:50.909 --> 01:07:52.849
we said we'd make five but we're gonna do it

01:07:52.849 --> 01:07:55.289
film by film yeah i think with this movie the

01:07:55.289 --> 01:07:57.590
movie where they're like you're a dumbledore

01:07:57.590 --> 01:08:00.829
you're a dumbledore yeah but like also like brought

01:08:02.030 --> 01:08:04.030
The way that I see it, he should have been less

01:08:04.030 --> 01:08:07.750
Obscura -y in the second one and maybe more so

01:08:07.750 --> 01:08:09.530
in the third one because I think it would fit

01:08:09.530 --> 01:08:12.530
with the vibe of the movie because it's dark.

01:08:12.710 --> 01:08:14.469
It's very dark. Everybody's mad. They're trying

01:08:14.469 --> 01:08:15.570
to take over a certain war. I think it's revealing

01:08:15.570 --> 01:08:17.289
that they just don't have a roadmap right now.

01:08:17.529 --> 01:08:19.750
They didn't script it out. They did not script

01:08:19.750 --> 01:08:21.449
it out. So I think if you're Warner Brothers

01:08:21.449 --> 01:08:23.810
and you take some time, you step away from the

01:08:23.810 --> 01:08:25.890
Wizarding World for a little bit. In any franchise

01:08:25.890 --> 01:08:30.310
you have your hands on. Well, sure. But like...

01:08:30.560 --> 01:08:33.920
Let the dust set a little bit with all this stuff

01:08:33.920 --> 01:08:38.300
around it. And maybe just start with small scale.

01:08:38.460 --> 01:08:41.840
Do a prestige television show. We're good. You

01:08:41.840 --> 01:08:43.939
guys are getting mad at me. I'm looking at the

01:08:43.939 --> 01:08:48.199
date. This is April 22nd, 2022. Happy Earth Day!

01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:51.479
Happy birthday. I'm talking like 2025. Say, hey,

01:08:51.560 --> 01:08:53.520
whatever streaming service that Warner Brothers

01:08:53.520 --> 01:08:56.380
has money in. Ready? HBO. HBO, yes. I've got

01:08:56.380 --> 01:08:59.739
a prediction. What? October 2026. Yep. The next

01:08:59.739 --> 01:09:02.300
Wizarding World movie comes out. But it's not

01:09:02.300 --> 01:09:04.779
Fantastic Beasts. It's not Fantastic Beasts.

01:09:04.800 --> 01:09:06.760
Finish your page. I'm saying this is where it

01:09:06.760 --> 01:09:09.479
comes. Voldemort's daughter. You can put it in

01:09:09.479 --> 01:09:13.100
your calendars. October 2026 is when I say the

01:09:13.100 --> 01:09:15.920
next Wizarding World movie comes out. Okay, so

01:09:15.920 --> 01:09:23.800
I would say in October 2025, we get our... I

01:09:23.800 --> 01:09:26.640
didn't know you had a small penis. Excuse me.

01:09:28.060 --> 01:09:30.560
So are you going to say in 2025 we're going to

01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:32.579
get the trailer and then in 2026... No, no, no,

01:09:32.579 --> 01:09:35.100
no, no, no. We are going to get, exclusive to

01:09:35.100 --> 01:09:41.500
HBO, Max. miniseries for the Wizarding World.

01:09:41.619 --> 01:09:43.460
I'm not going to say maybe the Augur. I already

01:09:43.460 --> 01:09:45.760
called bullshit. Do what? We already went through

01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:48.640
the HBO app, the HBO Go app, the HBO Max app.

01:09:48.739 --> 01:09:50.640
It's going to be called HBO Play or something

01:09:50.640 --> 01:09:53.819
like that. You know what? HBO My Money. You're

01:09:53.819 --> 01:09:58.539
exactly right. HBO My Money, daddy. It's just

01:09:58.539 --> 01:10:01.199
going to be HBO Plus. Yeah, right. It'll be HBO

01:10:01.199 --> 01:10:03.319
Plus like everybody else is trying to do. Yep.

01:10:03.340 --> 01:10:07.180
And it'll be like the Augur's Wizarding Cross.

01:10:07.960 --> 01:10:10.720
mini series. My prediction is... Oh, I'm ready

01:10:10.720 --> 01:10:14.039
for the... What is it? Oh, shoot. What's his

01:10:14.039 --> 01:10:18.000
name? Fuck. David Tennant. Barty... Crouch. Barty

01:10:18.000 --> 01:10:21.020
Crouch. The Barty Crouch story. Whatever. I don't

01:10:21.020 --> 01:10:22.960
know. The Barty Crouch Chronicles. This series

01:10:22.960 --> 01:10:24.939
isn't going to die. How does he become a death

01:10:24.939 --> 01:10:28.159
eater? Harry Potter is fine. It's not going away.

01:10:28.220 --> 01:10:29.899
My prediction, if we're going to really go this

01:10:29.899 --> 01:10:32.119
route, is the next Harry Potter Wizarding World

01:10:32.119 --> 01:10:36.539
production. will somehow or another find a way

01:10:36.539 --> 01:10:39.119
to skirt around the fact that the main three

01:10:39.119 --> 01:10:41.640
will not come back sure maybe rupert grint and

01:10:41.640 --> 01:10:45.220
they'll do a cursed child yeah series sure adaptation

01:10:45.220 --> 01:10:47.960
probably either way this series makes too much

01:10:47.960 --> 01:10:51.159
money to no yeah well that's that's also the

01:10:51.159 --> 01:10:54.020
fourth movie of the jk rowling five movies guaranteed

01:10:54.020 --> 01:10:56.319
there you go so because to make a cursed child

01:10:56.319 --> 01:10:58.239
make a cursed child i don't need to see that

01:10:58.239 --> 01:11:00.600
it'll be it'll be cursed indeed to scream yeah

01:11:00.970 --> 01:11:03.170
