WEBVTT

00:00:02.060 --> 00:00:03.640
You know what that sound means? It's another

00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:06.440
episode of Game for a Movie, where we ask, are

00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:08.900
you game for a movie? I am Mike, joined by...

00:00:08.900 --> 00:00:14.759
Jill. Oh, Andre. And Mitchell. Yeah! Yeah! Alright,

00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:17.879
so there was a movie that came out. I don't know

00:00:17.879 --> 00:00:20.320
if you've heard of it. Clifford the Big Red...

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:22.339
No. Did it actually come out? Did you see it?

00:00:22.460 --> 00:00:28.019
No, I didn't see it. We don't have that. Where

00:00:28.019 --> 00:00:30.820
all the best content is. I have Paramount+. Have

00:00:30.820 --> 00:00:32.939
you been watching the Fairly Oddparent remake

00:00:32.939 --> 00:00:35.820
series? I just hit my elbow. The thought of him

00:00:35.820 --> 00:00:37.640
watching that brought him physical pain. Yes.

00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:39.939
No, I'm not watching. What about the Halo TV

00:00:39.939 --> 00:00:41.479
show we were just talking about? I'm not watching

00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:44.719
the Halo TV show either. Spoilers. I'm down to

00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:46.780
watch Master Chief get jiggy with it. Oh, God.

00:00:46.939 --> 00:00:50.119
No, I'm upset. I'm upset. Yeah, we've already

00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.179
gone off the rails. Okay. Hey, that's our show.

00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.350
No. There was a movie that came out that we are

00:00:55.350 --> 00:00:58.070
going to talk about. But first, we're going to

00:00:58.070 --> 00:01:00.869
talk about what we are drinking. Oh, okay. Yeah.

00:01:00.969 --> 00:01:03.929
Yes. Andre, you're going first. All right. I

00:01:03.929 --> 00:01:07.629
got me a double IPA called Nothing Gold from

00:01:07.629 --> 00:01:12.129
Bissell Brothers. It's a brewery in... Just outside

00:01:12.129 --> 00:01:13.650
of Portland? Just outside of Portland. Just outside

00:01:13.650 --> 00:01:15.590
of Portland? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm guessing

00:01:15.590 --> 00:01:17.549
you got this on your trip to Maine. That is right.

00:01:17.730 --> 00:01:20.489
We did. Nice. This is the final stop on our brewery

00:01:20.489 --> 00:01:24.150
tour. It was epic. Yeah. All right. No, it was

00:01:24.150 --> 00:01:26.510
really good. How many breweries? In one day?

00:01:26.650 --> 00:01:29.489
In one day. Five, including the distillery. Yes.

00:01:29.489 --> 00:01:31.709
Nice. All right. Well done, well done. Which

00:01:31.709 --> 00:01:33.969
is a lot for our age at this point. Yeah. Some

00:01:33.969 --> 00:01:37.329
mistakes remain along the way. Yeah, fair. Yeah.

00:01:37.450 --> 00:01:39.129
It was fun. We ran into a bunch of dudes from

00:01:39.129 --> 00:01:41.290
Massachusetts who were, like, pulled up a map

00:01:41.290 --> 00:01:44.109
of different breweries in Vermont, Rhode Island,

00:01:44.189 --> 00:01:45.530
and Mass. Yeah, they literally had, like... We're

00:01:45.530 --> 00:01:47.329
doing this in one week. Yeah, they, like, had,

00:01:47.390 --> 00:01:49.469
like, a whole entire map of, like, all of New

00:01:49.469 --> 00:01:51.390
England and then Connecticut was blank. And I

00:01:51.390 --> 00:01:53.829
was like, bro. Dude, Connecticut is... And they

00:01:53.829 --> 00:01:55.469
were like, tell us where to go. We'll go. Yeah.

00:01:55.829 --> 00:01:58.109
I'll give them a hell of a list. Yeah. To their

00:01:58.109 --> 00:02:00.370
credit, they looked like they could probably

00:02:00.370 --> 00:02:03.590
do it, but at the same time, it was a very intimidating...

00:02:03.590 --> 00:02:05.969
So we're gonna talk, like, adult softball guys?

00:02:06.109 --> 00:02:07.920
Yeah. Like that kind of thing? Yeah. Yeah. They

00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:10.479
got the barrel stomach. Oh, yes. You nailed it.

00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.500
Yeah, yeah. They definitely hold their beer.

00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:15.439
And I think this was not their first day. No.

00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:18.199
It didn't seem like it. Did not. They had it

00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:21.960
down, though. All right. Jill, what do you got

00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:24.719
there? We've featured the brewery on this podcast

00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:27.580
a lot because Andre and I are fan people. But

00:02:27.580 --> 00:02:32.680
I have freshly brewed on a can on the 12th. Okay.

00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:36.250
It's Alvarium's Rocket Pop. Just so you know,

00:02:36.270 --> 00:02:38.050
it's Friday the 13th that we're recording this.

00:02:38.150 --> 00:02:40.669
Oh, yeah. Freshly canned on the 12th. Freshly

00:02:40.669 --> 00:02:43.030
canned on the 12th. I love Friday the 13th. It's

00:02:43.030 --> 00:02:45.770
like the best day of the year. Anyway, it's a

00:02:45.770 --> 00:02:49.889
popsicle -style sour featuring cherry, raspberry,

00:02:50.090 --> 00:02:53.870
and lime. And it is very refreshing. Nice. All

00:02:53.870 --> 00:02:55.870
right. Mitchell, what do you got over there?

00:02:56.550 --> 00:03:04.000
I got a fresh glass of 2022 Los Angeles. and

00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:07.960
it is delicious. That's a good year. It's a very

00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.379
great year. It doesn't really hold up to 2021

00:03:11.379 --> 00:03:15.439
Stanford tap water, but this is pretty solid.

00:03:15.620 --> 00:03:21.319
How is the water in LA? Look, I'm actually reading

00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:26.000
a book about this. William Mulholland is the

00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:29.939
guy who brought water to Los Angeles. Mulholland

00:03:29.939 --> 00:03:36.360
Drive Mulholland? Exactly. And this basically

00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:39.419
the premise of the book is that Los Angeles at

00:03:39.419 --> 00:03:42.900
its size should not exist. It just simply should

00:03:42.900 --> 00:03:46.819
not exist because there is no natural water resource

00:03:46.819 --> 00:03:52.879
near it for this aqueduct. So anyway, given how

00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:55.340
crazy it is that there is water in this city

00:03:55.340 --> 00:03:58.259
for millions and millions of people, it's really

00:03:58.259 --> 00:04:06.560
good. I'm just saying I would have given it a

00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:08.580
few years, let it get a little vintage, you know.

00:04:09.539 --> 00:04:15.719
Nice patina. I am drinking from Reverie Brewing,

00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:18.899
because I do love Reverie Brewing, Little Piggy.

00:04:19.459 --> 00:04:22.939
It is a barbecue -inspired imperial amber ale.

00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:28.100
Oh, barbecue. Oh, yeah, yeah. I want to smell

00:04:28.100 --> 00:04:30.680
it. Okay, so let me read this first and then

00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:32.879
I'll give you a smell. This beer is a celebration

00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.019
of the sweet flavors found in meat cooked over

00:04:35.019 --> 00:04:38.420
the open flame. Spice from Szechuan peppercorns,

00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:41.899
sweetness from molasses and brown sugar, and

00:04:41.899 --> 00:04:45.000
a kick from cayenne pepper, all blended harmoniously

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.319
in this refreshing amber ale. I'm happy there's

00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:52.120
no meats inspired. So they had a beer dinner.

00:04:52.620 --> 00:04:55.319
And they basically made this for the main course.

00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:57.620
That sounds really nice. Yeah. It's a little

00:04:57.620 --> 00:04:59.959
spicy. It's spicy. Yeah. I didn't get any spice.

00:05:00.339 --> 00:05:01.720
You definitely get the Szechuan peppercorns in

00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:03.800
there. I think this has overpowered my tongue,

00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:05.660
so I'm not getting any spice. But that was very

00:05:05.660 --> 00:05:07.379
nice. No, it's got a little buzz to it. I'm just

00:05:07.379 --> 00:05:09.120
happy it doesn't taste like meat. I'm glad I'm

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:11.860
not drinking more than one. But the one is pretty

00:05:11.860 --> 00:05:14.480
good. What's the ABV? I think it's only like

00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:16.839
5 or 6%. Yeah, it's amber. Yeah, it's not terrible.

00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:20.860
7 .3, wow. It's imperial, so there you go. What's

00:05:20.860 --> 00:05:25.339
that? Mine's 8 .2. Mine's 4 .8. Yeah, sours are

00:05:25.339 --> 00:05:27.800
usually lighter. I would say in a different multiverse,

00:05:27.980 --> 00:05:32.540
this is 4 or 5%. Okay. Speaking of multiverse.

00:05:32.819 --> 00:05:35.920
All right. You guys are welcome. You missed my

00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:38.899
segues. This is true. I liked it. Yeah, so. I

00:05:38.899 --> 00:05:42.889
love your segues in every universe, Mike. Except

00:05:42.889 --> 00:05:45.529
not the one where you ride your Segway off the

00:05:45.529 --> 00:05:47.949
cliff. No, not that one. There is definitely

00:05:47.949 --> 00:05:50.490
probably a multiverse. I wish they used that

00:05:50.490 --> 00:05:56.529
line on a better couple. Yeah, I agree. I agree.

00:05:56.750 --> 00:05:59.529
Hard agree. Yeah, it is tough with that one.

00:05:59.709 --> 00:06:01.889
So Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness,

00:06:01.990 --> 00:06:03.850
obviously that's what we're talking about. We're

00:06:03.850 --> 00:06:06.110
also going to get into some MCU future stuff

00:06:06.110 --> 00:06:09.689
as well as maybe some Moon Knight. I'm going

00:06:09.689 --> 00:06:12.720
to put it out there. Big spoiler warning. We

00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.439
are going to release this the Thursday after

00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.279
its second weekend. People should have seen it

00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:20.639
by then. But just in case you haven't, big spoiler

00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:22.240
warning. We're going to talk about everything

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:25.800
about it. Every little plot point. Every little

00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.180
everything. So huge spoiler warning. We'll see

00:06:29.180 --> 00:06:30.899
you next episode. If you haven't seen it yet,

00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:32.959
come back when you've seen the movie. Same with

00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:37.279
WandaVision. Same with WandaVision. Yes. So that

00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:43.139
brings us to the movie itself. Yeah. We have...

00:06:43.139 --> 00:06:47.220
Wow, this is so dramatic. I know. I just realized

00:06:47.220 --> 00:06:48.939
I don't even know if Mike likes this movie or

00:06:48.939 --> 00:06:51.180
not. I'm kind of curious. Oh, okay. I have thoughts.

00:06:51.540 --> 00:06:54.779
I didn't... Yeah, I don't know. So I'll start

00:06:54.779 --> 00:06:57.079
with the thought that I had at the end of the

00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:00.480
movie. Okay. And this is as a big -time Raimi

00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.959
fan, as a big fan of Benedict Cumberbatch as

00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:07.279
Doctor Strange, I would have rather had Iron

00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:11.019
Man 4 than Doctor Strange 2. Ooh. Like Tom Cruise

00:07:11.019 --> 00:07:13.319
Iron Man? No, like... Wait, wait, wait. What

00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.839
do you mean? Like RDJ back. Like Iron Man 4.

00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.779
Didn't need it. Okay, okay. Explain yourself,

00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:24.519
I guess. I just... If we were going to continue

00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.220
the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I would have rather

00:07:27.220 --> 00:07:31.500
Doctor Strange died taking out Thanos than Iron

00:07:31.500 --> 00:07:34.199
Man. Well, all right. I mean, okay, if you kill

00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:36.800
Doctor Strange, if Doctor Strange says, I am

00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:39.540
Doctor Strange, or whatever, snap. That moment

00:07:39.540 --> 00:07:41.680
doesn't work as well. No, it's not, I am Doctor

00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:45.199
Strange. It's, I knew this was happening. We're

00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:47.660
in the endgame now. I just thought it was strange.

00:07:48.259 --> 00:07:56.459
Oh. Okay. That sucks. That fucking sucks. You

00:07:56.459 --> 00:07:58.480
can't kill Doctor Strange when he has one movie.

00:07:58.740 --> 00:08:00.879
No, you couldn't. And a couple of cameos and

00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:02.639
have it have the same weight. It would be a little

00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:04.480
radical. Well, it would be, well, no, you know

00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:05.519
what it would be? It would be the Quicksilver

00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:07.240
death in Age of Ultron, where it's just like,

00:08:07.339 --> 00:08:09.339
all right, cool, I don't really care, you know,

00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:12.399
like. Yeah. He came and went, literally. Yeah.

00:08:12.819 --> 00:08:15.399
He did. And then we got a different person in

00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:18.019
WandaVision. Yeah. But that was a different.

00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:20.560
Oh, I love Evan Peters. There's nothing against

00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:22.399
Evan Peters. Nothing against Aaron Taylor -Johnson,

00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:25.360
but Evan Peters is a better, fills out the character.

00:08:25.420 --> 00:08:28.899
Okay, so what you're telling me is that you did

00:08:28.899 --> 00:08:31.019
not like this movie. No, I'm not saying that

00:08:31.019 --> 00:08:36.059
at all. Okay. I would have rather had. I still

00:08:36.059 --> 00:08:38.100
enjoyed the movie. You didn't need more for this

00:08:38.100 --> 00:08:42.940
character. What was that? Yeah, because I don't

00:08:42.940 --> 00:08:44.620
know where to read it, right? Yeah, you're welcome.

00:08:44.779 --> 00:08:47.440
To me, my interpretation is you just didn't need

00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:50.240
more Doctor Strange stuff. I did not. He works

00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:52.460
best in the ensemble. You don't need a standalone.

00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:55.539
I don't know. I think this standalone sold me...

00:08:55.539 --> 00:08:58.519
This movie sold me on the concept of a standalone

00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:00.919
Doctor Strange because I was kind of of the mind...

00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:02.840
And granted, I've only seen both films one time.

00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:05.320
Doctor Strange 1... Oh, you've only seen Doctor

00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:08.940
Strange 1? Yeah. Doctor Strange 1, I don't super

00:09:08.940 --> 00:09:11.620
love because it's just... Okay, magical Iron

00:09:11.620 --> 00:09:13.460
Man. That's a common criticism, right? It's a

00:09:13.460 --> 00:09:15.639
very similar origin story to Iron Man. I feel

00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:19.720
like I've seen it before. This one, you definitely

00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:22.139
can't say it isn't unique from the rest of the

00:09:22.139 --> 00:09:25.700
MCU, right? Oh, definitely. This is just funny,

00:09:25.740 --> 00:09:28.779
so I need to stop you because I looked up Aaron

00:09:28.779 --> 00:09:31.200
Taylor Johnson's IMDb to see what's next for

00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:34.659
him. He's Kraven. He's Kraven, yes. And I forgot

00:09:34.659 --> 00:09:36.539
about that until I looked it up. He's not done

00:09:36.539 --> 00:09:41.649
with the MCU. He's also on Bullet Train. Yes.

00:09:41.649 --> 00:09:43.690
That's another thing that I'm excited for. Regarding

00:09:43.690 --> 00:09:47.769
Doctor Strange, I liked Doctor Strange and the

00:09:47.769 --> 00:09:51.169
Multiverse of Madness. I have some feelings about

00:09:51.169 --> 00:09:53.710
the plotting and how they got a character to

00:09:53.710 --> 00:09:55.909
a certain point. We'll get there. But I actually

00:09:55.909 --> 00:09:58.409
think the best Doctor Strange outing is his animated

00:09:58.409 --> 00:10:03.779
short in the What If series. Okay. Supreme. Yeah,

00:10:03.779 --> 00:10:05.700
when we get to see what happens if he loses,

00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:08.720
instead of he loses his hands, he loses his heart,

00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:12.059
and he goes down Doctor Strange breaking bad.

00:10:12.340 --> 00:10:15.779
Yeah, right. I thought that was really interesting

00:10:15.779 --> 00:10:17.679
and compelling for the character and really took

00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.440
advantage of what you could do. This first outing

00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:24.720
is pretty forgettable. I don't know if I needed

00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:27.779
Iron Man 4, but I am kind of confirmed that Doctor

00:10:27.779 --> 00:10:30.779
Strange is the least interesting part of Doctor

00:10:30.779 --> 00:10:35.480
Strange in the multiverse of Madness. Wow. I

00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:39.940
wanted to spend more time with the villain, who

00:10:39.940 --> 00:10:44.169
is Wanda. Yay. Yes. Which Claire didn't know

00:10:44.169 --> 00:10:45.929
that Wanda was the villain. She thought there

00:10:45.929 --> 00:10:49.389
was going to be this riff, but that they would

00:10:49.389 --> 00:10:52.230
team up by the end and fight the bigger bad.

00:10:52.549 --> 00:10:54.169
Sure. And that's what the trailers kind of made

00:10:54.169 --> 00:10:56.169
it out to be. Yeah, right. So good on the trailers.

00:10:56.590 --> 00:10:58.970
I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

00:10:59.110 --> 00:11:01.809
That's my big bugaboo. Wow, they got this going

00:11:01.809 --> 00:11:03.889
really quick. And I didn't feel like there was

00:11:03.889 --> 00:11:08.009
a satisfactory bridge between where we left her

00:11:08.009 --> 00:11:11.220
in WandaVision and where... She begins. And the

00:11:11.220 --> 00:11:14.059
way that it's been explained in press and things

00:11:14.059 --> 00:11:16.360
is that, no, the Darkhold has corrupted her.

00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:19.840
Right. Sure, that's fine. It explains it, but

00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:23.559
it seems very rushed. I disagree. I like the

00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:25.799
fact that we dropped the pretense of like, okay,

00:11:25.860 --> 00:11:29.059
yes, she's the big bad. We have to deal with

00:11:29.059 --> 00:11:31.379
her right now. I figured it was going to happen

00:11:31.379 --> 00:11:33.179
in the third act, and then we were going to take

00:11:33.179 --> 00:11:35.120
a while to build up there. I have no problem

00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:38.299
with them making her the villain, or even getting

00:11:38.299 --> 00:11:39.899
to the point of her being a villain. I just feel

00:11:39.899 --> 00:11:42.220
like I missed a 15 -minute short. Excuse me.

00:11:42.279 --> 00:11:45.559
A 15 -minute short or something that kind of

00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:50.139
further... pulled her towards the place she is

00:11:50.139 --> 00:11:53.480
at the beginning of the film my thing is they

00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:56.059
and this goes back to one of my biggest criticisms

00:11:56.059 --> 00:11:59.700
of wandavision she should have ended that series

00:11:59.700 --> 00:12:02.559
as unequivocally a villain character in the mcu

00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:05.399
yeah yeah they left it very gray yeah they left

00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:13.419
it kind of open It's just like, okay, she did

00:12:13.419 --> 00:12:15.320
what she did and now she's going to go off and

00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.720
study this dark book and reconjure up her magical

00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:22.159
children. So I agree with Jill. It kind of looks,

00:12:22.259 --> 00:12:25.759
it feels weird. I think it's fixable if they

00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:28.620
had done the end of the series correctly and

00:12:28.620 --> 00:12:31.000
then you jump into Multiverse of Madness. That

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:33.000
was kind of like my big thing as well. Which

00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:36.309
is so true because WandaVision is one of my favorites

00:12:36.309 --> 00:12:38.730
of the Marvel shows. I don't know exactly where

00:12:38.730 --> 00:12:40.409
it is on the list because I'm still laying Moon

00:12:40.409 --> 00:12:43.009
Knight Digest before I say, okay, this is this.

00:12:43.129 --> 00:12:46.220
But it's definitely in top three easily. They

00:12:46.220 --> 00:12:48.559
butchered the ending. Yeah, the ending is one

00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:50.659
of the worst. Exactly. I would say, dovetailing

00:12:50.659 --> 00:12:52.820
into that, it is kind of a catch -22 where I

00:12:52.820 --> 00:12:54.440
feel like you need to watch WandaVision to see

00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:56.120
this, right? Because if you don't, then you have

00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:58.980
no idea why Wanda has gone totally tilted. Yep.

00:12:59.580 --> 00:13:01.620
Totally tilted. But at the same time, it feels

00:13:01.620 --> 00:13:04.360
like the end of her arc is the same exact spot

00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:06.659
that WandaVision was at, if that makes sense,

00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:08.980
right? Like, the whole final episode of her saying

00:13:08.980 --> 00:13:11.340
goodbye to her kids basically was the same exact

00:13:11.340 --> 00:13:13.990
emotional beat. that this movie ends on. And

00:13:13.990 --> 00:13:15.470
so that's where I kind of feel like, oh, okay,

00:13:15.509 --> 00:13:16.830
really? This is how we're wrapping this up? Like,

00:13:16.870 --> 00:13:20.429
sure, it's satisfying in this movie in a vacuum,

00:13:20.570 --> 00:13:22.190
right? But you can't watch this movie in a vacuum,

00:13:22.289 --> 00:13:24.190
if that makes sense. No, and that's exactly it.

00:13:24.289 --> 00:13:27.230
And speaking of the end, yes, we're jumping ahead,

00:13:27.370 --> 00:13:29.690
but speaking of the end, because you said that,

00:13:29.730 --> 00:13:31.990
it feels wrapped up. Let's just get something

00:13:31.990 --> 00:13:35.350
out of the way. Is Scarlet Witch dead? No, no.

00:13:35.350 --> 00:13:38.289
She signed a seven -year contract. Hell no. Yeah,

00:13:38.370 --> 00:13:40.600
all right. I just wanted to get that out of the

00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:42.919
way because I think we all felt that way. If

00:13:42.919 --> 00:13:44.740
it wasn't public knowledge that she signed a

00:13:44.740 --> 00:13:47.779
seven -year contract, sure. Yeah. Oh, guessing.

00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:50.220
Even that, though. Like, even that. I didn't

00:13:50.220 --> 00:13:53.159
feel like... Yeah, Marvel's... We're going to

00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:55.039
talk about, like, the future of the MCU. Yeah.

00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:58.820
But they have spent so much time developing Wanda.

00:13:58.980 --> 00:14:02.259
Yeah. There are fans of Wanda. Like, they don't

00:14:02.259 --> 00:14:04.019
call her Scarlet Witch. They call her Wanda.

00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:06.539
Right, right. And she is, I would say, one of

00:14:06.539 --> 00:14:08.720
the more popular characters. that's still part

00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:11.080
of the MCU. I'm taking out Captain America. I'm

00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:13.620
taking out Iron Man. They are in a position where

00:14:13.620 --> 00:14:16.120
they have to maintain characters that people

00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:19.179
are invested in and want to see the next chapter

00:14:19.179 --> 00:14:21.080
in their story, whether it's a standalone movie

00:14:21.080 --> 00:14:24.659
or just them being in the ensemble. And Wanda,

00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:29.200
at this point in 2022, she's up there. She's

00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:30.919
one of the top characters that you're invested

00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:34.000
in. I'm still invested in her character, and

00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:37.159
even if they bring... a different multiverse

00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:40.919
dimension Wanda in to kind of justify killing

00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:43.860
our version of her. Fine. I want to see, I want

00:14:43.860 --> 00:14:46.000
to continue to see the stories they do with her.

00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.100
Yeah. And that's kind of that we fall into the

00:14:48.100 --> 00:14:50.279
trap of, okay, now the multiverse is open. If

00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:51.840
we ever want to kill off a character, we can

00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:53.919
just yank another one from another, you know.

00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:56.620
Pluck another. Yeah, exactly. Here's 7 -1000.

00:14:58.649 --> 00:15:02.590
Wanda. So we lost 616 Wanda? 616 Wanda is technically...

00:15:02.590 --> 00:15:04.750
I don't think you'd think she's actually gone,

00:15:04.850 --> 00:15:07.809
but yes. We'll find out. She's predisposed at

00:15:07.809 --> 00:15:11.029
the moment. Yes, yes. Alright, so one of the

00:15:11.029 --> 00:15:13.769
other things that I wanted to address with this

00:15:13.769 --> 00:15:18.370
movie, how do we feel about the multiverse in

00:15:18.370 --> 00:15:22.210
general? And especially, we have to get to some

00:15:22.210 --> 00:15:25.269
characters that are included in this multiverse.

00:15:25.470 --> 00:15:29.639
Yep, yep, yep. I mean, do we feel like the multiverse

00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:34.320
is well -defined at this point? I mean, it is

00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:35.360
and it isn't. It's got some little pockets in

00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:37.620
there. Yeah. Well, I thought they did a pretty

00:15:37.620 --> 00:15:40.039
good job of... you know, keeping the rules very

00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:42.100
loose. So it can be, it can be surprising, but

00:15:42.100 --> 00:15:44.679
they also had, you know, some fun rules. Like,

00:15:44.740 --> 00:15:46.259
you know, they introduced, they did a good job,

00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:48.139
I think introducing the concept and building

00:15:48.139 --> 00:15:50.100
on the concept of dreamwalking. Right. Yeah.

00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:53.159
Like that was really fun. And it kind of like,

00:15:53.179 --> 00:15:55.240
it made sense to the odd, at least to me, I wasn't

00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:56.720
like, okay, this is like, I'm kind of losing

00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:58.899
the plot here or whatever. No. And then it led

00:15:58.899 --> 00:16:00.580
to that really fun moment of like, you're going

00:16:00.580 --> 00:16:02.940
to dreamwalk. You're not at the, like, there's

00:16:02.940 --> 00:16:04.700
no, there's no version of you in the universe.

00:16:04.820 --> 00:16:07.940
Not alive. Yeah. Led to that fun moment. Oh,

00:16:08.139 --> 00:16:10.419
Okay, cool. Dude, Zombie Strange. That was cool.

00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:12.639
That was not what I was expecting was going to

00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:14.659
happen with that character. No, and it totally

00:16:14.659 --> 00:16:16.519
makes sense in a Raimi movie now that I think

00:16:16.519 --> 00:16:18.779
about it. Absolutely. But Zombie Strange was

00:16:18.779 --> 00:16:21.450
unexpected. Yeah. Yeah. And, like, I was worried

00:16:21.450 --> 00:16:23.990
that it was going to be a cameo fest, and it

00:16:23.990 --> 00:16:25.850
kind of is in a way, and we can talk about that

00:16:25.850 --> 00:16:28.450
when we get there. But, like, I was worried that

00:16:28.450 --> 00:16:31.129
it was going to just be a setup for a bunch of

00:16:31.129 --> 00:16:32.769
other characters. You know what I mean? I was

00:16:32.769 --> 00:16:34.370
worried this was going to kind of Age of Ultron

00:16:34.370 --> 00:16:37.149
up a bunch of other subplots, but it didn't,

00:16:37.149 --> 00:16:39.490
you know? And it was clear Raimi and, you know,

00:16:39.509 --> 00:16:41.350
the screenwriters had a lot of fun with the concept,

00:16:41.529 --> 00:16:43.169
and they kind of wrapped it up a little bit.

00:16:43.190 --> 00:16:44.669
I don't know. So I'm going to pose a question

00:16:44.669 --> 00:16:47.320
to the group here. Mm -hmm. Is anyone starting

00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:50.419
to feel a multiverse fatigue because the multiverse

00:16:50.419 --> 00:16:54.139
is a bit of a hot theme to do in movies? I've

00:16:54.139 --> 00:16:56.639
got thoughts here. So I'll say this. I love this

00:16:56.639 --> 00:16:59.759
movie. I gave it an 8 out of 10. Honestly, the

00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.480
premiere glow of it probably gave it up to 8.

00:17:02.500 --> 00:17:06.339
It should be a 7 .5. Sure, yeah. But I will say

00:17:06.339 --> 00:17:09.460
my biggest... Oh, hey, kitty cat. My biggest

00:17:09.460 --> 00:17:12.579
gripe with the movie is the... And really, Phase

00:17:12.579 --> 00:17:15.859
4 in general, how it's treating... multiversal

00:17:15.859 --> 00:17:18.200
storytelling. And Mike, we talked about this

00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:20.980
when we were texting last week. Yeah. I feel

00:17:20.980 --> 00:17:23.220
like there's no stakes because they're not legitimately

00:17:23.220 --> 00:17:26.180
investing in characters within the multiverse.

00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:29.019
And here's what I mean by this. We meet Reed

00:17:29.019 --> 00:17:31.119
Richards for the very first time in the MCU,

00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:33.539
played by John Krasinski, straight out of fan

00:17:33.539 --> 00:17:37.319
casting IMDb, right? Which is okay. I was for

00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:40.380
it. I'm for it. Sure. I loved it. That moment,

00:17:40.500 --> 00:17:42.880
that was the loudest reaction in theater that

00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:45.140
I was in when that happened. That was louder

00:17:45.140 --> 00:17:49.759
than... uh, Professor X for my theory. This is

00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:52.940
why, this is why, this is, yeah, this is why

00:17:52.940 --> 00:17:54.839
we gotta watch, we gotta watch MCU movies when

00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:56.279
they premiere, right? Because the loudest moment

00:17:56.279 --> 00:17:58.539
was really during the emotional climax when somebody,

00:17:58.700 --> 00:18:00.859
we watched it a week late and somebody literally

00:18:00.859 --> 00:18:03.740
took a phone call in the middle of when, um,

00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.599
Christine and, well, it was, it was during the

00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:08.640
scene where we had just resolved the conflict

00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:11.660
and Christine and, and Strange were having their

00:18:11.660 --> 00:18:14.920
conversation and, and like, the guy took a fucking

00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:16.839
phone call. And it wasn't, like oh hey can i

00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:19.480
call you back no it's like oh hey how's it going

00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:26.619
sorry to derail that but we're gonna watch thor

00:18:26.619 --> 00:18:28.359
love and thunder i think opening weekend so we

00:18:28.359 --> 00:18:33.319
yeah no absolutely anyways uh yes so just to

00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:36.579
finish the point here i don't like this new thing

00:18:36.579 --> 00:18:39.200
that i'm noticing in the mcu where they bring

00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.500
back evan peters as quicksilver only to make

00:18:41.500 --> 00:18:44.099
a ralph boner joke right bring back some of these

00:18:44.099 --> 00:18:47.380
iconic characters with In some cases, new actors.

00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:50.700
In other cases, it's awesome to see a live -action

00:18:50.700 --> 00:18:53.859
version of Captain Carter, and only to have them

00:18:53.859 --> 00:18:56.740
disposed of pretty quickly after. And I'm like,

00:18:56.779 --> 00:18:59.220
okay, this feels cheap. Why are we investing

00:18:59.220 --> 00:19:02.500
this kind of, I don't know, any kind of resources

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:05.759
into this? The only multiversal thing that I

00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:09.059
think worked... is Spider -Man No Way Home. And

00:19:09.059 --> 00:19:11.339
it's because it legitimately served the story.

00:19:11.660 --> 00:19:14.519
Tom Holland's Spider -Man forever changes because

00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:17.059
of what happens in that movie. And he's living

00:19:17.059 --> 00:19:20.460
with the consequences of his choices and all

00:19:20.460 --> 00:19:22.420
the stuff that happened in the plot up until

00:19:22.420 --> 00:19:26.059
the very end. And I was like, wow, this is legitimately

00:19:26.059 --> 00:19:27.980
a good movie and I can't wait to see the next

00:19:27.980 --> 00:19:30.700
chapter. With this, I'm just like, okay, they

00:19:30.700 --> 00:19:32.779
keep introducing new characters, but to what

00:19:32.779 --> 00:19:38.130
end? What is the bigger plot? Well, I have thoughts

00:19:38.130 --> 00:19:42.569
on phase four in general. Yeah. But to me, and

00:19:42.569 --> 00:19:45.529
this is totally just speculation on my part.

00:19:45.589 --> 00:19:48.390
Right. Um, so not, I don't know. I don't have

00:19:48.390 --> 00:19:50.029
any insight or info or anything like that. It

00:19:50.029 --> 00:19:51.769
felt like that whole entire second act. Like

00:19:51.769 --> 00:19:53.829
it was like Kevin fight. Like it was almost like

00:19:53.829 --> 00:19:56.329
the producers were saying, Hey, like we need

00:19:56.329 --> 00:19:57.849
to get some cameos in here. We need to get, we

00:19:57.849 --> 00:19:59.950
need to get some fan moments for people to go.

00:20:00.029 --> 00:20:02.170
Whoa. And that's the thing too. So one of the

00:20:02.170 --> 00:20:04.009
things I was thinking at the end of the movie,

00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:06.960
going, hey, we gave you John Krasinski as Reed

00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:09.539
Richards for the one movie. Right. We gave you

00:20:09.539 --> 00:20:11.420
Professor X. I actually hope that's not the one

00:20:11.420 --> 00:20:14.920
movie. I hope not either, but it feels like that

00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:17.299
could be... This is it. This could be it for

00:20:17.299 --> 00:20:19.480
some of these. And it's just like that whole

00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:21.259
entire second act kind of feels like it was made

00:20:21.259 --> 00:20:23.259
by a different person, if that makes sense, right?

00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:26.160
Like, it doesn't... I don't really feel like

00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:27.619
that movie gets back on the rails. Second of

00:20:27.619 --> 00:20:29.920
three, right? Or you're saying the whole second

00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:33.509
act? What do you mean second of? Divide the film

00:20:33.509 --> 00:20:35.849
into parts. Divide the film into parts. I'm basically

00:20:35.849 --> 00:20:38.049
saying the whole entire section with the Illuminati,

00:20:38.109 --> 00:20:41.390
right? Where they're talking. Up until they're

00:20:41.390 --> 00:20:45.069
introduced, until they get jobbed by Wanda. That

00:20:45.069 --> 00:20:49.930
whole part felt off to me. I was like, because

00:20:49.930 --> 00:20:52.059
I was thinking... I was thinking you were saying

00:20:52.059 --> 00:20:54.140
the entire second act, and I was just like...

00:20:54.140 --> 00:20:55.420
I guess that's true. No, not that. Zombie Strange

00:20:55.420 --> 00:20:57.359
is definitely rated. That's the third act. You

00:20:57.359 --> 00:20:58.920
know, that's the thing. That's what I'm saying.

00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:02.160
Second or third act. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:05.519
Up until... So, like, basically, as soon as Patrick

00:21:05.519 --> 00:21:07.440
Stewart shows up on screen until he gets killed,

00:21:07.579 --> 00:21:09.980
that's the part where I feel like, what? Like,

00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:11.799
this movie feels a little different now. Not

00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:13.759
in a bad way, but more like, okay, this is what

00:21:13.759 --> 00:21:16.599
I expected. Cameo fest. Oh, hey, we might...

00:21:16.599 --> 00:21:19.400
See, this guy, we, you know, we put this guy

00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:21.029
in the movie. I also want... want to say that

00:21:21.029 --> 00:21:25.250
i'm tired of seeing professor x die yeah i'm

00:21:25.250 --> 00:21:27.390
kind of annoyed he didn't really do much except

00:21:27.390 --> 00:21:29.710
say something from the i thought that was kind

00:21:29.710 --> 00:21:33.910
of cool whatever again it was it was it was all

00:21:33.910 --> 00:21:36.450
worth it because god damn it as soon as he reeled

00:21:36.450 --> 00:21:41.269
on screen the x -men um cartoon theme stung at

00:21:41.269 --> 00:21:43.690
this and i was like god fucking damn it you guys

00:21:43.690 --> 00:21:50.759
got me shit i'm so ready for x -men box movies

00:21:50.759 --> 00:21:53.880
but they purposely went with that i really think

00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:56.000
and all the stuff i've been reading about x -men

00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:58.759
97 when it's rebooted for disney plus yeah the

00:21:58.759 --> 00:22:02.279
folks who are working on it are very very invested

00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:04.940
in terms of how it's going to tie into other

00:22:04.940 --> 00:22:08.440
things in marvel and maybe that's just like a

00:22:08.440 --> 00:22:11.059
little little tiny little tiny nugget little

00:22:11.059 --> 00:22:14.400
guy yeah there could be a jump from cartoon to

00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:16.980
live action from that series i would love that

00:22:17.950 --> 00:22:19.769
I think what you were saying with No Way Home,

00:22:19.930 --> 00:22:23.390
I think besides the fact that what you were saying,

00:22:23.470 --> 00:22:26.150
that Tom Holland's Peter Parker progressively

00:22:26.150 --> 00:22:28.789
has changed across every movie. He's always in

00:22:28.789 --> 00:22:30.390
a slightly different place than where he is.

00:22:31.130 --> 00:22:36.150
But No Way Home also has the advantage of giving

00:22:36.150 --> 00:22:39.329
us multidimensional, multiverse characters that

00:22:39.329 --> 00:22:44.480
we already know. and care about versus... Okay,

00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:47.579
we have Professor X. Some people care about him.

00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:53.420
But John Krasinski, the... Oh, gosh. Black Bolt.

00:22:53.940 --> 00:22:58.420
Black Bolt. Captain Marvel. Captain Carter. Well,

00:22:58.440 --> 00:23:00.420
Captain... Carter's an interesting one in the

00:23:00.420 --> 00:23:01.700
sense that it's really cool to see her being

00:23:01.700 --> 00:23:03.960
live. It's Peggy. Yeah. It was great to see her

00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:05.960
back again and I did not expect that. Right.

00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:08.319
But with the exception of those two, it's like,

00:23:08.380 --> 00:23:10.539
okay, cool. John Krasinski. Oh, cool. This Black

00:23:10.539 --> 00:23:12.220
Bolt guy. I don't read comics. I don't know who

00:23:12.220 --> 00:23:14.039
this guy is. And then seeing... Well, and the

00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:17.140
TV show lasted for all of like three episodes

00:23:17.140 --> 00:23:19.440
because there was a TV show that was brought

00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:22.680
in humans. Oh, he was in Inhumans. Okay. Yeah.

00:23:22.940 --> 00:23:28.119
And then seeing Monica Rambeau as as Captain

00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:31.500
Marvel was really cool, but besides the fact

00:23:31.500 --> 00:23:33.660
that they were very disposable, obviously, I

00:23:33.660 --> 00:23:37.259
didn't really care. And even with Professor Xavier,

00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:39.640
I didn't know he was going to die, but I definitely

00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:42.079
knew this was it. He was not coming back. Yeah.

00:23:42.099 --> 00:23:47.119
Yeah. Yeah. We should talk about America Chavez.

00:23:47.380 --> 00:23:49.200
We should talk about America Chavez. Well, I

00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:51.740
just want to say one more thing about this part,

00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:56.730
the Illuminati. I just forgot my thought. Were

00:23:56.730 --> 00:23:59.170
you guys buying into the theories that Tom Cruise

00:23:59.170 --> 00:24:01.950
is going to show up as Iron Man? No. That's what

00:24:01.950 --> 00:24:07.130
it was. That's what it was. I got it now. Do

00:24:07.130 --> 00:24:10.130
you guys feel the trailer ruined some of the

00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:12.809
fun with that? Because they did bring up the

00:24:12.809 --> 00:24:16.730
Illuminati. They shouldn't have shown the Ultron

00:24:16.730 --> 00:24:19.029
robots and they shouldn't have. They shouldn't

00:24:19.029 --> 00:24:20.630
have put in... I didn't mind the Ultron robots.

00:24:20.849 --> 00:24:22.089
I just thought that was kind of... They should

00:24:22.089 --> 00:24:26.130
have put his ear and his voice in that. Yes,

00:24:26.130 --> 00:24:27.710
right, right, right. They should not have had

00:24:27.710 --> 00:24:29.190
Patrick Stewart's voice in that. They already

00:24:29.190 --> 00:24:31.490
showed Mordu coming back. They should have just

00:24:31.490 --> 00:24:34.519
done more with Mordu. Yeah. Fine. Mordo. Mordo.

00:24:34.700 --> 00:24:37.920
Mordo. Sure. The one that got me, too, because

00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:39.400
you said that you didn't know Captain Carter

00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:42.039
was in it. In the last trailer revealed, there

00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:44.180
was a moment where Captain Carter's shield was

00:24:44.180 --> 00:24:45.900
flung into the wall. Oh, was it? I missed it.

00:24:46.940 --> 00:24:48.700
It's a blink and you miss it thing. Sure. Yeah,

00:24:48.700 --> 00:24:50.500
it's a blink and you miss it thing. But, like,

00:24:50.519 --> 00:24:52.759
as I'm seeing it, I'm going, did we really just

00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:54.779
see this already? Yeah. Like, Captain Carter

00:24:54.779 --> 00:24:56.380
now? Yeah. And they did that trailer, like, a

00:24:56.380 --> 00:24:57.819
week or two before it came out. I didn't watch

00:24:57.819 --> 00:25:00.640
it on purpose to avoid it. It was 100%, like,

00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:04.299
a week before, saying, Boom. This is, this is

00:25:04.299 --> 00:25:06.980
what's happening. Yeah. I wanted on that. Yeah.

00:25:07.140 --> 00:25:09.940
So, all right, let's talk American. I'll just

00:25:09.940 --> 00:25:11.819
say, I'll just say from a business standpoint,

00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:14.480
I like from a creative standpoint, I agree from

00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:16.940
a business standpoint, the fact that you sprinkle

00:25:16.940 --> 00:25:19.539
that in, that's how you're able to get right

00:25:19.539 --> 00:25:21.900
now. They have over half a billion in box office.

00:25:21.980 --> 00:25:27.740
Yeah. And the argument. can be made it's on the

00:25:27.740 --> 00:25:30.339
viewer to make the choice well depending it's

00:25:30.339 --> 00:25:32.680
on the viewer to typically make the choice of

00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:35.720
not choosing to click watch the trailer right

00:25:35.720 --> 00:25:37.920
but if you were in a scenario such as a movie

00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:40.880
theater and it comes on what are you gonna do

00:25:40.880 --> 00:25:43.200
you know like i said i i think i think they thread

00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:44.960
the needle pretty well because i mean circling

00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:46.640
back like they didn't spoil the water was the

00:25:46.640 --> 00:25:49.200
villain right like yes you know like that was

00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:51.319
all that yeah like the didn't spoil like that

00:25:51.319 --> 00:25:52.880
was a fun surprise because you know who the villain

00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.150
was supposed to be right no mephisto mephisto

00:25:56.150 --> 00:26:00.349
everything's mephisto that's the thing like that

00:26:00.349 --> 00:26:02.549
i didn't i didn't i didn't get spoiled on this

00:26:02.549 --> 00:26:04.329
on the movie per se but as soon as the movie

00:26:04.329 --> 00:26:05.950
came out and then like like some people were

00:26:05.950 --> 00:26:07.890
like i really love this movie and other people

00:26:07.890 --> 00:26:10.710
were like this is just the worst mcu movie i've

00:26:10.710 --> 00:26:12.950
seen in a while and i'm like okay got it so tom

00:26:12.950 --> 00:26:14.930
cruise and mephisto aren't in this movie got

00:26:14.930 --> 00:26:17.670
it yeah done like i knew that one like people

00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:20.779
People that saw this that didn't like it, a lot

00:26:20.779 --> 00:26:23.680
of them are not Raimi fans. Right. Right. Yes.

00:26:23.819 --> 00:26:25.559
And I knew it was going to be at least wacky.

00:26:25.579 --> 00:26:27.960
Yeah. Exactly. I went and braced for wackiness.

00:26:27.980 --> 00:26:29.720
Yes. And I got it. All right. We got to talk

00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:31.559
America Chavez. You're right. I'm worried she'll

00:26:31.559 --> 00:26:33.859
get forgotten. She's not going to get forgotten.

00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:37.700
No way. Trust me. So I like the fact that they

00:26:37.700 --> 00:26:40.599
gave her something that was she's struggling

00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:43.140
with her power. Yeah. Something like that because

00:26:43.140 --> 00:26:45.960
then it just doesn't solve it right away. But

00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:48.710
at the same time. One of the things I felt could

00:26:48.710 --> 00:26:51.569
have been done, if Wanda's the same in every

00:26:51.569 --> 00:26:55.029
universe, where she has to kill the Wanda that's

00:26:55.029 --> 00:26:57.869
there in front of the kids, like the ending did,

00:26:58.009 --> 00:27:00.690
it doesn't matter that America can't control

00:27:00.690 --> 00:27:03.009
her power. Just take her to any multiverse, show

00:27:03.009 --> 00:27:06.329
her this, we're done. Yeah, no, if she had gotten

00:27:06.329 --> 00:27:10.049
what she wanted and somehow America managed to

00:27:10.049 --> 00:27:13.029
open the portal willingly or involuntarily, we

00:27:13.029 --> 00:27:15.349
still would have ended up in that, where we were.

00:27:15.410 --> 00:27:18.220
There was very little... That could have derailed

00:27:18.220 --> 00:27:22.539
Wanda from the epiphany that she has unless they

00:27:22.539 --> 00:27:26.140
pushed her even darker. Where it's, I don't want

00:27:26.140 --> 00:27:29.099
to move to a dimension to be with my children

00:27:29.099 --> 00:27:31.319
so I can be their mother. It's, I want to move

00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:33.339
to a dimension so I can have my children, put

00:27:33.339 --> 00:27:37.240
them in a cage, and nothing can hurt them. That

00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:41.099
would be the next step. I mean, yes, that would

00:27:41.099 --> 00:27:43.920
be the next step. But then there's the line of,

00:27:43.980 --> 00:27:46.539
okay, we can eventually pull her back to being

00:27:46.539 --> 00:27:50.019
a hero, get her back on the lunchbox. Or it's,

00:27:50.019 --> 00:27:52.299
nope, she's off the lunchbox forever, and now

00:27:52.299 --> 00:27:54.759
she is the villain costume you buy your kids.

00:27:54.839 --> 00:27:59.559
That was a fun one. As dumb Marvel quips go,

00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:02.000
that was a fun one. You're officially off the

00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:08.759
lunchbox. I'll say this. Just as we have seen

00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:12.579
with other very popular villains, the Joker has

00:28:12.579 --> 00:28:15.140
a lunchbox. You know what I mean? Yep. It's true.

00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:18.180
You're not wrong. It's true. She could have her

00:28:18.180 --> 00:28:21.180
own lunchbox. You got a lot of neckbeards going

00:28:21.180 --> 00:28:22.420
around me like, I'm the Joker, baby. But she's

00:28:22.420 --> 00:28:25.440
not on the Wheaties box. Hey, I'm all for putting

00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:28.400
Elizabeth Olsen on a lunchbox, on a cooler. Put

00:28:28.400 --> 00:28:34.079
Elizabeth Olsen in Mortal Kombat. Let's go. They

00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:36.720
don't have that. Unfortunately, that's WB. Or

00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:38.299
at least for now, there's rumors that they're

00:28:38.299 --> 00:28:39.460
going to sell another round of the guys that

00:28:39.460 --> 00:28:41.000
make Mortal Kombat. But that's the reason DC

00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:43.339
people show up. But anyways. Going back to America

00:28:43.339 --> 00:28:47.779
Chavez, I liked her a lot. I don't want to go

00:28:47.779 --> 00:28:49.980
too into what the future of the MCU is quite

00:28:49.980 --> 00:28:52.759
yet. Right. But I have questions about where

00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:56.799
is this going for her. I hope she gets to see

00:28:56.799 --> 00:28:59.529
her moms again. And I thought she actually, I

00:28:59.529 --> 00:29:01.430
don't want to say the actress's name incorrectly.

00:29:01.970 --> 00:29:03.470
I don't either. So I'm just going to keep referring

00:29:03.470 --> 00:29:06.789
to her as America Thomas. Sochi is, like, the

00:29:06.789 --> 00:29:12.950
widely, like, used one. Sochi Gomez. Sochi? Yeah,

00:29:13.049 --> 00:29:15.930
so they don't pronounce the L part, though probably

00:29:15.930 --> 00:29:19.180
it goes Sochido. But everyone just calls her...

00:29:19.180 --> 00:29:20.799
Like, they introduced her at the premiere as

00:29:20.799 --> 00:29:23.140
Xochitl Gomez. Okay, Xochitl Gomez. So, Xochitl

00:29:23.140 --> 00:29:25.119
Gomez, I thought she had really great chemistry

00:29:25.119 --> 00:29:27.579
with Benedict Cumberbatch. Yeah, right. I bought

00:29:27.579 --> 00:29:30.059
their relationship. I bought it, and then I bought...

00:29:30.059 --> 00:29:32.500
Some of the writing didn't work for me, but I

00:29:32.500 --> 00:29:35.319
think the acting worked well insofar as, like...

00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:37.319
The writing is never great. Yeah, right. But,

00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:39.119
like, at the beginning, like, you know, she...

00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:42.099
You could buy that, okay... this Strange is different.

00:29:42.220 --> 00:29:45.380
You know what I mean? She's believing it. Believing

00:29:45.380 --> 00:29:47.700
in, hey, this person is not going to kill me

00:29:47.700 --> 00:29:49.559
when the chips are down. Better than Ponytail

00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:52.240
Strange. Yeah, right. Yes, right. I like this

00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:53.779
person better than Ponytail Strange. Exactly.

00:29:54.140 --> 00:29:57.119
Ponytail Strange. Yeah. I just love the fact

00:29:57.119 --> 00:29:58.880
that we're going physical features and going

00:29:58.880 --> 00:30:01.859
that Strange. I mean, it's also Zombie Strange.

00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:04.380
There is Zombie Strange. What was the physical

00:30:04.380 --> 00:30:06.880
features of the guy that got, of the Strange

00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:10.099
that blipped the whole universe that got Mal?

00:30:10.279 --> 00:30:12.940
to death by Black, what's his name? Black Bolt.

00:30:12.980 --> 00:30:15.779
Black Bolt, yeah. What was his physical thing?

00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:17.559
He had a beard. No, he didn't have a beard. He

00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:19.039
didn't have a beard. He was clean shaven. He

00:30:19.039 --> 00:30:23.000
was clean shaven. Because our 616 strange has

00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:25.640
the beard. Doesn't have a ponytail. Then the

00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:28.480
one who got yeeted has the ponytail. And then

00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:32.559
838 was the one who was clean shaven. And also

00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:36.099
got yeeted. And also got yeeted. Vaporized. Vaporized.

00:30:36.099 --> 00:30:40.319
Okay, whatever. Still, yeah. Yelled at. We should

00:30:40.319 --> 00:30:42.500
talk about Dr. Strange. Is he, as I said, the

00:30:42.500 --> 00:30:44.119
least interesting part of the series? Well, that's

00:30:44.119 --> 00:30:46.160
the funny thing is because we kind of fall into

00:30:46.160 --> 00:30:49.220
him last after talking about Wanda. I disagree,

00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:53.440
frankly. Okay, so first off, one of the big reasons

00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:55.779
I like this movie a lot is the opening act with

00:30:55.779 --> 00:30:58.500
the fight between him and Shuma Gorath. Okay.

00:30:58.660 --> 00:31:03.559
I love when superhero movies have clips of superheroes

00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:06.589
saving people. We need to have more, our superheroes

00:31:06.589 --> 00:31:09.009
need to save people, damn it, okay? So the whole

00:31:09.009 --> 00:31:11.049
entire idea of him getting, it's a cliche, but

00:31:11.049 --> 00:31:12.650
it's a cliche that I love, and I feel like I'm

00:31:12.650 --> 00:31:14.730
a little underserved at this point, of he's at

00:31:14.730 --> 00:31:16.509
that, he's at Christine's wedding, and oh God,

00:31:16.710 --> 00:31:18.990
I gotta, you know, there's trouble, I gotta suit

00:31:18.990 --> 00:31:20.529
up. The suit up was cool. Right, like gotta dive

00:31:20.529 --> 00:31:22.849
in and suit up, you know? The call to action,

00:31:22.970 --> 00:31:25.309
it's not just big purple man is showing up, we

00:31:25.309 --> 00:31:27.569
gotta fight, it's these people are in danger,

00:31:27.750 --> 00:31:31.009
I gotta go help them, you know? It's a smaller...

00:31:31.369 --> 00:31:33.789
conflict rather than it's on the and i like that

00:31:33.789 --> 00:31:36.250
i like that opening this is not an avengers level

00:31:36.250 --> 00:31:40.109
threat correct yes and i liked that opening fight

00:31:40.109 --> 00:31:42.789
scene so much that i went back and watched the

00:31:42.789 --> 00:31:45.769
ebony moth fight that he shows up in for the

00:31:45.769 --> 00:31:49.250
infinity war right and I don't know. Like, I

00:31:49.250 --> 00:31:51.450
feel like, I don't know if I credit this a lot

00:31:51.450 --> 00:31:53.509
to Sam Raimi or whatever, but, like, the way

00:31:53.509 --> 00:31:55.630
that he's framed and the way that his fight scenes

00:31:55.630 --> 00:31:58.170
is choreographed. Yeah, I guess so. You're right.

00:31:58.230 --> 00:32:00.829
Like, he just knows how to, I mean, whatever.

00:32:01.049 --> 00:32:02.730
He's a fanboy at heart. This is probably the

00:32:02.730 --> 00:32:04.430
most Spider -Man, this is probably the most Spider

00:32:04.430 --> 00:32:06.049
-Man -y scene out of the whole movie, right?

00:32:06.049 --> 00:32:08.869
What he does really well out of his movies is...

00:32:08.869 --> 00:32:12.569
He moves the camera! Well, that too. But he creates

00:32:12.569 --> 00:32:16.569
these mythical heroes. Yeah. Like, he made Ash.

00:32:17.019 --> 00:32:20.240
You know, Ash Williams exists because of Sam

00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:22.740
Raimi. My brain, you said Ash and pause. My brain

00:32:22.740 --> 00:32:25.680
was like, catch him? Yes. Ash Williams. I know,

00:32:25.740 --> 00:32:27.799
I know, I know. Got his start on the Pokemon

00:32:27.799 --> 00:32:29.640
anime. But that's the thing. It's like these

00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:31.880
characters, he brings them to the next level.

00:32:32.359 --> 00:32:35.559
They feel... Larger than life. Yeah, exactly.

00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:37.200
Larger than life. They feel bigger than they

00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:38.940
are. You know, that kind of stuff. Right. And

00:32:38.940 --> 00:32:40.940
he does that very well. That's why Spider -Man,

00:32:40.980 --> 00:32:43.799
the first one at least, worked. Sure. And Spider

00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:45.980
-Man 2, I'll also argue, worked better because

00:32:45.980 --> 00:32:51.079
he made Doc Ock a sympathetic villain. Yeah,

00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:55.460
sure. But, yeah. And the parallels between Doc

00:32:55.460 --> 00:32:58.880
Ock and Peter Parker, even though they're not

00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:00.940
very similar, but, you know, it's like if you

00:33:00.940 --> 00:33:04.720
have a dream, you go for it. You know, it gets

00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:09.180
corrupted. Yeah, no. I agree with Andre, though,

00:33:09.200 --> 00:33:12.539
that the fight with Shima Gorath was pretty cool.

00:33:13.960 --> 00:33:15.460
It's just like, I immediately bought that he's

00:33:15.460 --> 00:33:17.920
a superhero and he's not just the sorcerer. Well,

00:33:18.019 --> 00:33:19.400
I know he's not the sorcerer, but you know what

00:33:19.400 --> 00:33:21.380
I mean? I know he is, but you know what I mean?

00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:24.140
He's not just a wizard, you know what I mean?

00:33:24.180 --> 00:33:28.039
He is a hero. And I'll say, this may have been

00:33:28.039 --> 00:33:30.640
the best suit -up moment in the MCU. You think

00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:39.049
so? I agree. And I'll say, shout out to Sam Raimi.

00:33:39.130 --> 00:33:43.170
He has a great eye for basically comic book storytelling

00:33:43.170 --> 00:33:46.309
on screen. And I think the train scene in Spider

00:33:46.309 --> 00:33:49.410
-Man 2 is probably his masterpiece. This little

00:33:49.410 --> 00:33:52.930
scene or this little suit transition here is

00:33:52.930 --> 00:33:56.450
definitely, I think, because of Sam. Pretty fucking

00:33:56.450 --> 00:33:58.170
fantastic. Yeah, right, right. I don't know.

00:33:58.450 --> 00:34:01.009
I guess, okay, we'll give credit to Sam. Exactly,

00:34:01.130 --> 00:34:02.869
right. And that immediately sold me in on the

00:34:02.869 --> 00:34:04.849
movie and Doctor Strange as a character. Okay,

00:34:04.849 --> 00:34:07.940
so you... Are arguing that Doctor Strange is

00:34:07.940 --> 00:34:13.340
not the least character of this. Correct. Okay.

00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:16.559
I'm going to give you a couple characters. I

00:34:16.559 --> 00:34:19.019
would name all the Illuminati beneath Doctor

00:34:19.019 --> 00:34:20.920
Strange. I wasn't going to name the Illuminati.

00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:23.639
You're not on the marquee. I was not going to

00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:25.340
name the Illuminati. Yeah, yeah. Okay. I'm going

00:34:25.340 --> 00:34:29.900
to give you Doctor Strange. Yep. Wanda. Okay.

00:34:30.780 --> 00:34:35.440
Mordo. Yeah. Wong. Yeah, I like Wanda Long. America

00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:38.500
Chavez. Yep. And Christine. Yeah. Those are the

00:34:38.500 --> 00:34:39.980
names I'm going to give you. You've got to rate

00:34:39.980 --> 00:34:42.719
them. I've got to rate them? Who's last? That's

00:34:42.719 --> 00:34:44.079
what I want to know. Who's last? Who's last?

00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:46.400
I think there's an obvious option for last. Mordo

00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:51.340
is last. And then Christine. Wait, can you say

00:34:51.340 --> 00:34:53.099
your listing again? It's tough. So it's Doctor

00:34:53.099 --> 00:34:57.480
Strange, Wanda, Mordo, Wong, America, and Christine.

00:34:57.639 --> 00:35:00.369
I guess Christine. No, no, Christine. What? No

00:35:00.369 --> 00:35:02.809
way. Wong's, like, almost at the top of my list.

00:35:02.849 --> 00:35:05.869
Fuck yourself. Well, no, but, like, not, not,

00:35:05.869 --> 00:35:07.769
I guess, like, how, so, like, important to the

00:35:07.769 --> 00:35:10.550
overall movie? No, no, no. Who do you like? Oh,

00:35:10.570 --> 00:35:12.409
okay, sorry, sorry. I misinterpreted it. These

00:35:12.409 --> 00:35:14.590
are just vibes. These are just vibes. These are,

00:35:14.590 --> 00:35:18.070
these are. These are just vibes. I thought you

00:35:18.070 --> 00:35:20.550
were saying in the importance to the film. No,

00:35:20.550 --> 00:35:22.789
you were saying how Doctor Strange is, like,

00:35:22.789 --> 00:35:27.199
the least. I'd rather be watching Wanda's movie.

00:35:27.199 --> 00:35:28.840
It's more like Wanda's movie. And the reason

00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:30.900
I put Mordo at the bottom is because I feel like

00:35:30.900 --> 00:35:32.980
they had an angle with him that he didn't do

00:35:32.980 --> 00:35:34.500
anything with him in this movie. It's like, okay,

00:35:34.539 --> 00:35:35.639
he's here to just have... He just got left in

00:35:35.639 --> 00:35:37.559
a ditch. Well, right. It was just like, let's

00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:39.300
have our fight scene with him and then that's

00:35:39.300 --> 00:35:40.559
it. You know what I mean? They didn't do anything

00:35:40.559 --> 00:35:42.639
interesting with the... He's on the same level

00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:44.980
as the Minotaur. Yeah, right. That's exactly

00:35:44.980 --> 00:35:47.219
right. And as someone who didn't read the comics,

00:35:47.400 --> 00:35:49.239
I don't know why they kept framing him in shots.

00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:51.679
I guess you're important, dude, whose name we

00:35:51.679 --> 00:35:55.340
don't know at all. Yep. All right, so you do.

00:35:55.719 --> 00:35:58.199
Mordo's last. Mordo's last, then Christine, and

00:35:58.199 --> 00:36:00.679
then who I have left? America. Doctor Strange,

00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:04.099
America, Wanda, and Wong. Okay, then America.

00:36:06.739 --> 00:36:09.980
God, you're putting me on a technicality. Probably

00:36:09.980 --> 00:36:12.340
Wanda, then Doctor Strange, and then Wong, yeah.

00:36:13.079 --> 00:36:16.199
Okay. So the same bottom two is for me, Mordo

00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:21.730
and Christine. I like Christine a lot more than

00:36:21.730 --> 00:36:23.730
I did after watching Doctor Strange. It's true.

00:36:23.769 --> 00:36:25.849
She's probably most improved, which is wild,

00:36:25.989 --> 00:36:27.750
right? Most improved. It's the what if episode.

00:36:27.750 --> 00:36:30.530
Movie one, yeah, she's five of six. It's the

00:36:30.530 --> 00:36:34.030
what if episode again. She doesn't do much, but

00:36:34.030 --> 00:36:36.409
you feel the loss of her. Sure. So those two

00:36:36.409 --> 00:36:42.610
at the bottom. Yeah, America, Doctor Strange,

00:36:43.170 --> 00:36:48.070
Wong, and then Wanda. Okay. I think Benedict

00:36:48.070 --> 00:36:51.070
Wong, right? Benedict Wong, yeah. Yeah, Benedict

00:36:51.070 --> 00:36:53.210
Wong. I just want to watch him. We've got the

00:36:53.210 --> 00:36:55.650
Benedicts. Yeah, the Benedicts. Benedict and

00:36:55.650 --> 00:36:57.030
Benedict. That should be the poster next time.

00:36:57.090 --> 00:37:00.809
Benedict and Benedict. Ben and Ben. He also just

00:37:00.809 --> 00:37:02.349
has great stage presence, film presence. He does,

00:37:02.349 --> 00:37:04.769
yes. And I just want to see him in more things.

00:37:04.929 --> 00:37:07.130
And Marvel seems to really like him because he

00:37:07.130 --> 00:37:09.570
showed up in Shang -Chi, too. He shows up everywhere

00:37:09.570 --> 00:37:11.590
nowadays. He shows up everywhere. Mitchell, your

00:37:11.590 --> 00:37:15.070
list real quick. Yeah, so last for me is Christine.

00:37:15.230 --> 00:37:20.199
And I'll say this. Rachel McAdams, I love her,

00:37:20.239 --> 00:37:22.280
but she has zero chemistry with him. Correct.

00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:25.360
I love Rachel McAdams, but do not buy... Her

00:37:25.360 --> 00:37:27.280
animated form has more... Yes, right. I bought

00:37:27.280 --> 00:37:30.239
the romance more in What If than I did in either

00:37:30.239 --> 00:37:33.159
movie, right? That is one of the biggest thread

00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:35.920
points in the plot, and it just does not work

00:37:35.920 --> 00:37:38.420
for me at all. Anyway, so that's going to be

00:37:38.420 --> 00:37:42.380
six. I'll go... Who are my other options? I forgot

00:37:42.380 --> 00:37:44.639
the ones that we had. Christine, Mordo, Wong,

00:37:44.880 --> 00:37:57.219
America, Wanda, Doctor Strange. Yeah. And Doctor

00:37:57.219 --> 00:38:00.380
Strange 1, I think, was more okay. Introducing

00:38:00.380 --> 00:38:02.559
the character, yeah. But it's just like, he is

00:38:02.559 --> 00:38:04.780
one of the main Doctor Strange villains. Right.

00:38:05.420 --> 00:38:08.800
And then we got, I'm going to go America Chavez,

00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:11.300
but just because of how competitive the field

00:38:11.300 --> 00:38:13.559
is, I'm very invested in her character. I'm a

00:38:13.559 --> 00:38:16.440
huge Young Avengers fan. Yeah. And then I will

00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:20.820
go Strange, Wong, and then by a million miles,

00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:26.360
Elizabeth Olsen. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. It's her movie.

00:38:26.590 --> 00:38:28.849
It is her movie. You're right. It's her movie.

00:38:29.170 --> 00:38:32.030
Yeah. This is Scarlet Witch, Multiverse of Madness,

00:38:32.150 --> 00:38:34.570
and a little Doctor Strange. No, there's a lot

00:38:34.570 --> 00:38:37.070
of Doctor Strange in this too. I read a review

00:38:37.070 --> 00:38:39.650
talking about it today, and they were like, Multiverse

00:38:39.650 --> 00:38:42.210
of Madness, it's Wanda's madness. Yeah, right.

00:38:42.329 --> 00:38:45.190
Well, sure. Yeah. Obviously, it stood with me.

00:38:45.489 --> 00:38:47.909
Yeah. All right. We have talked way too long

00:38:47.909 --> 00:38:49.869
about this movie. We're not getting to Moon Knight.

00:38:50.150 --> 00:38:52.309
We have to take a break to talk about the future

00:38:52.309 --> 00:38:54.269
of MCU. Okay. Because this is something we want

00:38:54.269 --> 00:38:55.610
to talk about. Yes. Let's take a quick break.

00:38:56.010 --> 00:38:58.210
Be right back. All right, we're back to talk

00:38:58.210 --> 00:39:02.130
about the future of the MCU. One of the things

00:39:02.130 --> 00:39:05.889
that I feel hasn't been established yet is the

00:39:05.889 --> 00:39:09.590
overarching narrative. Yes! You know, like we

00:39:09.590 --> 00:39:11.650
had the Infinity Saga for the first ones, or

00:39:11.650 --> 00:39:15.309
for the first phases. Basically, as soon as...

00:39:15.599 --> 00:39:18.739
Even as soon as the credits rolled for Iron Man

00:39:18.739 --> 00:39:22.699
1, we had Nick Fury saying Avengers Initiative,

00:39:23.079 --> 00:39:27.719
and we had that to look forward to. Phase 4 is

00:39:27.719 --> 00:39:31.059
the longest phase, purely on content alone because

00:39:31.059 --> 00:39:34.219
of how much is in it. And I know that Kang, the

00:39:34.219 --> 00:39:36.559
Conqueror, will be important. He who remains,

00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:40.079
yes. But I just, I'm with you. I just don't see

00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:42.360
what, what are we building towards? Right. What

00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:45.019
are we building towards with all of this? I feel

00:39:45.019 --> 00:39:47.900
like phase four has basically just said the words

00:39:47.900 --> 00:39:50.519
multiverse and that's it. That's what they're

00:39:50.519 --> 00:39:52.280
building towards. And what's funny about it though

00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:54.780
is like we, I feel like we're back to phase one.

00:39:54.860 --> 00:39:56.760
We have all these movies that are just separate

00:39:56.760 --> 00:39:59.519
movies. Yeah. We've got Shang -Chi. We've got

00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:02.860
Black Widow. Eternals. I haven't seen that. Yeah.

00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:05.110
Let's just bring, me, I think. it's safer to

00:40:05.110 --> 00:40:07.110
say that Eternals is not going to be important

00:40:07.110 --> 00:40:09.269
for a while. I just think they're going to pop

00:40:09.269 --> 00:40:16.369
in here. I would eat a hat if the Eternals get

00:40:16.369 --> 00:40:17.849
their own film. There's not going to be an Eternals

00:40:17.849 --> 00:40:21.429
2. They'd bomb. The movie's coming up. Let's

00:40:21.429 --> 00:40:23.869
just look at them. Thor, Love and Thunder. That's

00:40:23.869 --> 00:40:26.590
going to be standalone. Is that the last Chris

00:40:26.590 --> 00:40:30.860
Hemsworth film that we think? We think. We don't

00:40:30.860 --> 00:40:32.820
know. Are we assuming that we're in transition

00:40:32.820 --> 00:40:35.380
to Natalie Portman being the main Thor for a

00:40:35.380 --> 00:40:36.920
while? I don't know where it's going to go. That's

00:40:36.920 --> 00:40:39.320
all I'll say. Basically, there's no more contract.

00:40:39.380 --> 00:40:41.820
And Love and Thunder is, the way I'm looking

00:40:41.820 --> 00:40:44.039
at it, is about its Guardians of the Galaxy 2

00:40:44.039 --> 00:40:47.440
.5. Yes, I agree. And Guardians of the Galaxy

00:40:47.440 --> 00:40:50.519
3 is coming out as well. We got Wakanda Forever.

00:40:51.079 --> 00:40:53.480
Which, again, feels like a separate movie just

00:40:53.480 --> 00:40:57.099
because they have to address. It's going to be

00:40:57.099 --> 00:40:59.699
Shuri's re -origin story almost, right? Are we

00:40:59.699 --> 00:41:02.039
sure it's Shuri, though? Yeah. Letitia Wright,

00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:04.800
dude, it's been well documented. It's Letitia

00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:07.059
Wright. And she got COVID and got shut down for

00:41:07.059 --> 00:41:09.400
a while. Yeah, and then she refused to get vaxxed.

00:41:09.440 --> 00:41:11.500
Yeah, I know. Also was in trouble for a while.

00:41:11.960 --> 00:41:14.480
Oh, no, no. Yeah, we're sure. They figured that

00:41:14.480 --> 00:41:16.199
out. For better or worse. I don't know. They

00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:19.400
want to bring somebody else in for the next one.

00:41:19.539 --> 00:41:21.780
Oh, for that third one? For the third one. Well,

00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:23.920
why bother then making her be black? So she'll

00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:25.579
be black, she'll put on the suit for five minutes

00:41:25.579 --> 00:41:27.840
at the end and then call it a day? Basically,

00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:30.920
just bridge the gap. Yeah. You know, and find

00:41:30.920 --> 00:41:33.360
out that she's better at the lab stuff instead

00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:36.940
of the, yeah. Okay. The Marvels, that's the first

00:41:36.940 --> 00:41:39.320
time we even address WandaVision besides this

00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:41.579
one. That's Captain Marvel's next film, right?

00:41:41.579 --> 00:41:43.519
Captain Marvel's next film. Yes, okay. It's also

00:41:43.519 --> 00:41:47.059
supposed to have Ms. Marvel. Right, who's getting

00:41:47.059 --> 00:41:49.940
a Disney Plus show. And Spectrum. Not Photon?

00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:53.719
Who's Spectrum? Photon? Yeah. Photon is Monica

00:41:53.719 --> 00:41:56.800
Rambeau's daughter. I thought her name was Spectrum.

00:41:56.920 --> 00:42:00.400
Oh, I've seen her referred to as Photon. Okay,

00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:02.719
alright. Well, Photon's a better name than Spectrum

00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:05.219
anyway, so I'll take it. Then Guardians of the

00:42:05.219 --> 00:42:08.519
Galaxy 3, and then Quantumania. Yep. Quantumania's

00:42:08.519 --> 00:42:10.880
the one that will bring Kang back into it. Yeah,

00:42:10.900 --> 00:42:14.039
so basically Quantumania... Ironically, Ant -Man

00:42:14.039 --> 00:42:17.739
is our greatest hope, right? Ant -Man jumps up

00:42:17.739 --> 00:42:21.239
the butt and expands. Ant -Man once again saves

00:42:21.239 --> 00:42:24.619
the day. Well, so don't we have a Fantastic Four

00:42:24.619 --> 00:42:27.699
movie on the horizon too? We do. But that may

00:42:27.699 --> 00:42:29.519
have gotten pushed back a little bit too because

00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:32.500
John Watts dropped out of the project. Oh, okay.

00:42:32.659 --> 00:42:34.440
Oh, I just saw that. He wants to take a break.

00:42:34.920 --> 00:42:37.800
Which is fair. He could come back anytime, but

00:42:37.800 --> 00:42:39.860
he just wanted to take a break. So I don't know

00:42:39.860 --> 00:42:43.579
who's going to head that ship right now. I still

00:42:43.579 --> 00:42:45.980
feel good about the writing hands, but it's just

00:42:45.980 --> 00:42:48.820
a matter of who comes in. It's not going to be

00:42:48.820 --> 00:42:52.599
Trant. I know that. No, definitely not. I think

00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:55.480
in the, you know, saying the quiet part out loud,

00:42:55.679 --> 00:43:00.179
in my opinion, the most important franchise that

00:43:00.179 --> 00:43:02.760
has not been formally introduced into the MCU

00:43:02.760 --> 00:43:06.059
yet is... The X -Men. But we've got the show

00:43:06.059 --> 00:43:08.099
for that. They're going to have the cartoon.

00:43:08.780 --> 00:43:11.079
That could be consequential. It could just be

00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:14.460
a little side project. Who knows? But ultimately,

00:43:14.659 --> 00:43:18.659
I think that is going to help dictate the direction

00:43:18.659 --> 00:43:22.559
of where we go for the MCU beyond Phase 4 because

00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:25.619
it took us three phases to get up to Infinity

00:43:25.619 --> 00:43:28.599
War and Endgame. I'd imagine it's going to be

00:43:28.599 --> 00:43:31.340
similarly paced to get us to Secret Wars, which

00:43:31.340 --> 00:43:33.500
is what... A lot of people are talking about

00:43:33.500 --> 00:43:36.480
it. Isn't Secret Wars going to be a TV series?

00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:40.519
No. Secret Invasion. Secret Invasion, yes. Which

00:43:40.519 --> 00:43:44.199
feels too late to it. It's not even like, oh

00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:46.559
man, I want another Infinity War. Where's my

00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:49.139
Infinity War? It's more like... I just want to

00:43:49.139 --> 00:43:51.159
know what we're moving towards. Right. And I

00:43:51.159 --> 00:43:53.219
guess what I am saying is, where's my team -up

00:43:53.219 --> 00:43:55.119
movie? And we got one, essentially, with No Way

00:43:55.119 --> 00:43:58.940
Home, right? In a form. Well, it's the problem

00:43:58.940 --> 00:44:00.989
of... phase four having too many properties in

00:44:00.989 --> 00:44:03.630
it right it's just too much yep i don't know

00:44:03.630 --> 00:44:05.650
if it would be better if we've moved if at some

00:44:05.650 --> 00:44:07.750
point we moved into phase five and that's what

00:44:07.750 --> 00:44:10.010
we were calling it it's just they introduced

00:44:10.010 --> 00:44:12.489
king the conqueror i know he will eventually

00:44:12.489 --> 00:44:16.369
be important right but it's just what is it young

00:44:16.369 --> 00:44:18.570
avengers is that what we're building towards

00:44:18.570 --> 00:44:21.210
is it young avengers well i'm in miss marvel

00:44:21.210 --> 00:44:24.550
young avengers honestly as someone who's a fan

00:44:24.550 --> 00:44:27.050
of the books when they came out young avengers

00:44:27.050 --> 00:44:30.550
as characters I think, work better as a show.

00:44:30.789 --> 00:44:33.550
So I don't even know if it's... It's a team drama.

00:44:33.809 --> 00:44:36.070
Like, that's what The Avengers... It's the OC

00:44:36.070 --> 00:44:37.789
with superpowers. I was about to say, like, they

00:44:37.789 --> 00:44:40.369
could eat the CW's lunch with that show, right?

00:44:40.670 --> 00:44:44.550
Because that's Wanda's kids, Wiccan and Speed.

00:44:44.710 --> 00:44:47.929
Then there's Kate Bishop. There's Cassie Lang.

00:44:48.809 --> 00:44:52.369
And... America Chavez. And Miss Marvel. Miss

00:44:52.369 --> 00:44:54.409
Marvel. And, I mean, you can even argue that

00:44:54.409 --> 00:44:56.909
Spider -Man might be a part. I mean, he's still...

00:44:56.909 --> 00:45:01.650
And then you got... Eli Bradley, who was briefly

00:45:01.650 --> 00:45:03.969
introduced. Oh, that's right. In Winter Soldier.

00:45:04.309 --> 00:45:07.909
Yeah. So who is he? Sorry. The grandson of the.

00:45:08.869 --> 00:45:12.349
Ah, OK. Yeah. Yeah. But, you know, like, OK,

00:45:12.369 --> 00:45:14.849
so that's why I brought them up is OK. Are we

00:45:14.849 --> 00:45:16.730
building towards them? And then, yeah, I think

00:45:16.730 --> 00:45:18.449
a TV show sounds better, especially if they're

00:45:18.449 --> 00:45:20.510
going to be more like the team, like superhero

00:45:20.510 --> 00:45:24.230
OC. This is give me. Superhero OC. Just give

00:45:24.230 --> 00:45:27.960
me something. California. Because I'm just, I'm

00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:31.300
feeling the fatigue. I'm feeling where I felt

00:45:31.300 --> 00:45:33.500
when I walked out of watching Age of Ultron.

00:45:33.539 --> 00:45:36.340
I'm feeling the fatigue. Yeah. I just don't care.

00:45:36.340 --> 00:45:38.820
Well, I think we're reaching the point in so

00:45:38.820 --> 00:45:41.539
far as like, I think the approach feels like

00:45:41.539 --> 00:45:43.699
you can interact with whatever property in the

00:45:43.699 --> 00:45:46.199
MCU that you feel is more interesting. You really

00:45:46.199 --> 00:45:48.239
can't though because you have to interact with

00:45:48.239 --> 00:45:49.679
all of it. I don't know, man. Doctor Strange

00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:52.940
just proved that no, you can't. Because if you

00:45:52.940 --> 00:45:54.360
didn't watch WandaVision because you didn't care

00:45:54.360 --> 00:45:55.980
about WandaVision, all of a sudden you're getting

00:45:55.980 --> 00:45:57.860
all this exposition. Wait, why is she evil that

00:45:57.860 --> 00:45:59.840
way? I guess so. I mean, this is me hand -waving,

00:45:59.840 --> 00:46:01.780
like, who cares about Doctor Strange but not

00:46:01.780 --> 00:46:03.440
about Wanda? But I guess there's, like, that's

00:46:03.440 --> 00:46:06.380
a significant slice, right? Yeah, right. Yeah,

00:46:06.659 --> 00:46:09.300
I don't know. I don't want to know why Monica

00:46:09.300 --> 00:46:10.980
Rambeau, I can't remember Monica Rambeau's daughter,

00:46:11.039 --> 00:46:15.679
is it Marie? No. Whatever, Photon. I'm on it.

00:46:16.059 --> 00:46:19.139
Daughter Rambeau. Wait, why does she have superhero

00:46:19.139 --> 00:46:23.079
powers now? Right. Wait, why is Falcon Captain

00:46:23.079 --> 00:46:26.659
America? Why is his suit so ugly? Why is his

00:46:26.659 --> 00:46:29.679
suit so ugly? Oh, damn, dude. You really had

00:46:29.679 --> 00:46:31.340
to go and do it. I think you have it backwards.

00:46:31.880 --> 00:46:34.500
Monica Rambeau is... Monica Rambeau is Photon,

00:46:34.500 --> 00:46:35.659
right? Is Photon. Oh, okay, sorry. That's what

00:46:35.659 --> 00:46:38.780
I was thinking about it. And then her... Yeah,

00:46:39.059 --> 00:46:42.260
Maria. Maria Rambeau. Sorry, so Maria Rambeau

00:46:42.260 --> 00:46:47.170
is Captain Marvel on the Illuminati side. Mata

00:46:47.170 --> 00:46:51.610
Harambo is her daughter. Yes. Who becomes Photon,

00:46:51.610 --> 00:46:54.789
also known as Spectrum, also has been referred

00:46:54.789 --> 00:46:59.409
to as Pulsar. Pulsar. Pick a name. All right.

00:46:59.429 --> 00:47:03.070
Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. No. And, like, Loki

00:47:03.070 --> 00:47:07.250
season two will be important somehow. Are we

00:47:07.250 --> 00:47:09.969
kind of disappointed there wasn't more of a connection

00:47:09.969 --> 00:47:15.030
to Loki? Yes. Very. The TVA? Yeah. We're going

00:47:15.030 --> 00:47:17.460
to see it in Quantumania. Yeah. I know. Just

00:47:17.460 --> 00:47:19.900
because of the Kang connection. Exactly. But

00:47:19.900 --> 00:47:23.059
I just thought for sure that it would have been...

00:47:23.059 --> 00:47:25.219
Something. Something. At this point. Something.

00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:28.480
I don't know what exactly, but... I don't know,

00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:30.400
man. I think something switched in me when I

00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:31.900
watched Eternals, because that was the first

00:47:31.900 --> 00:47:34.519
movie in a while that I sat down, no interest

00:47:34.519 --> 00:47:35.920
in watching, but I watched it because it was

00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:37.900
a Marvel movie, and then I came out of that movie

00:47:37.900 --> 00:47:39.239
being like, alright, that's the last time I'm

00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:40.920
going to watch this just because it's a Marvel

00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:42.679
movie. You know what I mean? You know what? So

00:47:42.679 --> 00:47:45.320
far it's had no repercussions. Right. Well, sure.

00:47:45.460 --> 00:47:47.559
I mean, they haven't had a year to react to it

00:47:47.559 --> 00:47:52.099
or whatever, but yeah. I don't know. It doesn't

00:47:52.099 --> 00:47:54.119
seem to matter. No one's talked about the giant

00:47:54.119 --> 00:47:56.420
celestial. That's true. You're right. You think

00:47:56.420 --> 00:47:58.139
somebody would have brought up the giant celestial.

00:47:58.139 --> 00:48:01.460
This is their fourth or fifth world ending event

00:48:01.460 --> 00:48:03.599
that they've had to deal with, right? Oh, and

00:48:03.599 --> 00:48:07.599
then there was briefly about Moon Knight. It's

00:48:07.599 --> 00:48:11.099
set in London, which is also the same. city that

00:48:11.099 --> 00:48:13.099
parts of Eternals is setting. Yeah, you wanted,

00:48:13.099 --> 00:48:15.599
you wanted, you wanted, you wanted, um, uh, Kit

00:48:15.599 --> 00:48:17.699
Harington to show up or something, right? Yeah.

00:48:17.780 --> 00:48:18.920
That would've been cool. Oh, and we've got Blade

00:48:18.920 --> 00:48:19.980
coming on in the future. Like, I'm excited for

00:48:19.980 --> 00:48:21.420
that. Yeah, Blade would be fun. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:21.579 --> 00:48:25.059
But is this okay? No, to me, to me, like, it's

00:48:25.059 --> 00:48:27.780
just, like, the movie, like, the movie, a Marvel

00:48:27.780 --> 00:48:29.480
movie's gonna have to do, look interesting for

00:48:29.480 --> 00:48:31.559
me to watch it, which, as it happens, I'm a huge

00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:33.340
Mark, so that's gonna be most of them, you know?

00:48:33.340 --> 00:48:35.800
Yeah. That's fine. And if they're gonna, if they're

00:48:35.800 --> 00:48:38.659
gonna commit to, to having, letting, to bringing

00:48:38.659 --> 00:48:42.170
in, cool directors with different visions such

00:48:42.170 --> 00:48:45.650
as Sam Raimi or what Chloe Zhao cinematically

00:48:45.650 --> 00:48:47.889
brought to the table because her film was gorgeous.

00:48:49.110 --> 00:48:53.929
You made a face. It's a bad movie. It looks great.

00:48:54.269 --> 00:48:58.030
I don't think it's that good of a movie. I didn't

00:48:58.030 --> 00:49:00.690
say that. I said cinematically. I said cinematically

00:49:00.690 --> 00:49:03.010
it looked really good. You can polish a turd

00:49:03.010 --> 00:49:06.019
but it's still a turd. I don't want to say point

00:49:06.019 --> 00:49:08.760
fingers and I don't know how much of Eternal's

00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:13.519
problem is studio or that she tried to do her

00:49:13.519 --> 00:49:16.059
thing and they're like and it just didn't work

00:49:16.059 --> 00:49:18.500
or they're like no we want you because you just

00:49:18.500 --> 00:49:21.280
won an Oscar and you are really good at the visuals

00:49:21.280 --> 00:49:24.940
but we're not here for your storytelling yeah

00:49:24.940 --> 00:49:27.139
the Oscar thing was a happy accident because

00:49:27.139 --> 00:49:28.980
she was already she was already tapped right

00:49:28.980 --> 00:49:39.889
yeah has a distinct director's voice, which is

00:49:39.889 --> 00:49:42.369
the same thing that we're getting with Sam Raimi,

00:49:42.429 --> 00:49:45.130
which I do appreciate in this movie. But there

00:49:45.130 --> 00:49:47.789
is something to be said about directors like

00:49:47.789 --> 00:49:51.849
the Russo brothers, who kind of play ball. You

00:49:51.849 --> 00:49:54.530
know what I mean? They know how to work within

00:49:54.530 --> 00:49:57.489
the Marvel machine, and they've made some of

00:49:57.489 --> 00:50:02.429
the best Marvel movies. Same with Taika. Taika,

00:50:02.530 --> 00:50:06.829
yeah, and I'm really hoping that... to my expectations

00:50:06.829 --> 00:50:09.630
too but he has more of a voice right i think

00:50:09.630 --> 00:50:12.269
there's like for these team -up movies where

00:50:12.269 --> 00:50:15.409
you're really uh putting a bow on big storylines

00:50:15.409 --> 00:50:18.349
and bringing all these characters together i'm

00:50:18.349 --> 00:50:22.190
not sure if you could trust a director with a

00:50:22.190 --> 00:50:25.630
distinct vision right no i get i get i get what

00:50:25.630 --> 00:50:28.090
you're saying like like these movies by design

00:50:28.090 --> 00:50:31.730
have to be Make the mold, exactly. Yeah, like

00:50:31.730 --> 00:50:34.230
if they brought Alex Garland in, it'll look gorgeous,

00:50:34.309 --> 00:50:37.250
but it's not going to have any of the heavy weight

00:50:37.250 --> 00:50:39.849
that comes with his films. Right, no. And I mean,

00:50:39.849 --> 00:50:42.329
I just got finished shitting on Infinity War,

00:50:42.409 --> 00:50:45.230
comparing it to Doctor Strength, the Multiverse

00:50:45.230 --> 00:50:47.769
of Madness' opening fight scene, but that's by

00:50:47.769 --> 00:50:49.869
design too, right? You know, like every character

00:50:49.869 --> 00:50:51.570
has to have their little mini moment to shine

00:50:51.570 --> 00:50:53.329
in those movies, right? You can't just have one

00:50:53.329 --> 00:50:54.769
character steal the spotlight. Like, I don't

00:50:54.769 --> 00:50:57.579
want to... think too many praises, but isn't

00:50:57.579 --> 00:51:00.320
that why Joss Whedon's Avengers was cool? It's

00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:05.000
because he knows how to do teams. He was right

00:51:05.000 --> 00:51:08.739
for Avengers, and he really, as much as I didn't

00:51:08.739 --> 00:51:11.340
like it, he was right for Avengers Age of Ultron.

00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:13.539
Well, he was, but that was... They just didn't

00:51:13.539 --> 00:51:15.780
know what they wanted to do. That and that was

00:51:15.780 --> 00:51:18.219
peak, we need to set up 17 different storylines

00:51:18.219 --> 00:51:20.599
to get people still invested. Kind of, which

00:51:20.599 --> 00:51:23.079
will never, ever matter. And I think they've

00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:24.840
reached a better balance with that, you know?

00:51:24.880 --> 00:51:27.420
Because, like, we just finished watching this

00:51:27.420 --> 00:51:29.619
Doctor Strange movie, and there's not... I didn't

00:51:29.619 --> 00:51:31.840
feel like, oh, man, it's setting up 17 different

00:51:31.840 --> 00:51:34.079
other movies at the end of it. It's setting up

00:51:34.079 --> 00:51:38.780
Doctor Strange 3, maybe something Wanda, maybe

00:51:38.780 --> 00:51:41.199
something America Chavez. Right, but there's

00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:44.239
no, like... Sure, but there wasn't a weird moment

00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:46.880
where America Chavez has to, like, leave the

00:51:46.880 --> 00:51:48.599
plot for a little bit. We follow her to a scene,

00:51:48.780 --> 00:51:52.139
and she dives into a pool and says, oh... this

00:51:52.139 --> 00:51:56.400
is the prophecy of the show yeah yeah yeah exactly

00:51:56.400 --> 00:51:59.840
right right wow i forgot about thor's plot right

00:51:59.840 --> 00:52:02.079
that's what i'm saying though like that was peak

00:52:02.079 --> 00:52:04.659
we need to wedge something in here to get people

00:52:04.659 --> 00:52:08.199
to get this going very forced and we set up black

00:52:08.199 --> 00:52:10.320
widow but then we said we're not gonna do black

00:52:10.320 --> 00:52:12.820
widow the same way we're gonna do it 14 years

00:52:12.820 --> 00:52:16.139
later we set up this relationship too that's

00:52:16.139 --> 00:52:19.960
not going anywhere so you know again like honestly

00:52:19.960 --> 00:52:22.539
though like As much as we're complaining about,

00:52:22.699 --> 00:52:24.639
or at least I'm complaining about not having

00:52:24.639 --> 00:52:26.800
a clear vision of what's going forward, honestly,

00:52:26.860 --> 00:52:28.360
these movies are still hitting more than they're

00:52:28.360 --> 00:52:31.320
missing for me, right? They have a vision. They're

00:52:31.320 --> 00:52:33.860
just playing it almost too close to the top.

00:52:33.920 --> 00:52:36.400
All right, I may cut this later, but what's the

00:52:36.400 --> 00:52:39.199
project you jump off on? What do you mean? Like,

00:52:39.199 --> 00:52:41.760
as in you don't care if it comes out or not?

00:52:42.380 --> 00:52:45.679
You were saying it needs to look interesting

00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:48.800
and fun. Sure. Calm down on this. Yeah, do it.

00:52:48.940 --> 00:52:52.500
Keep going. Okay. So, Thor, Love and Thunder?

00:52:52.719 --> 00:52:54.599
Absolutely, yeah. I mean, it's Taika, you know,

00:52:54.599 --> 00:52:58.900
he's... Shang -Chi 2? Sure, I don't know. Well,

00:52:58.920 --> 00:53:01.420
I was gonna read the ones that are actually...

00:53:01.420 --> 00:53:02.760
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wakanda Forever?

00:53:05.380 --> 00:53:07.219
That's gonna be tough. I was gonna say, like,

00:53:07.219 --> 00:53:09.940
there's no comment for... I mean, I don't know

00:53:09.940 --> 00:53:11.739
how I feel about it. Sorry, finish your thought,

00:53:11.840 --> 00:53:15.019
Mitchell. I was thinking, because Ryan Coogler

00:53:15.019 --> 00:53:17.940
is writing and directing, I trust him as a filmmaker

00:53:17.940 --> 00:53:27.889
to tell a good story still. Yeah. You don't have

00:53:27.889 --> 00:53:30.590
Chadwick. Let's put that one off to the side.

00:53:31.809 --> 00:53:34.489
Let's put that one off to the side. You started

00:53:34.489 --> 00:53:37.489
off with a spicy one right away. I'm just reading

00:53:37.489 --> 00:53:41.849
them in order. The Marvels? That directly depends

00:53:41.849 --> 00:53:44.170
on how much I like Ms. Marvel, which I'm going

00:53:44.170 --> 00:53:46.849
to watch. Just because I like that character.

00:53:47.250 --> 00:53:50.530
Guardians 3? Yeah, I'll watch it. Ant -Man Quantumania?

00:53:51.510 --> 00:53:53.489
Literally, you got me on a technicality because

00:53:53.489 --> 00:53:56.110
I know that Commander Kang is going to show up.

00:53:56.150 --> 00:53:58.769
Kang the Conqueror. Not Commander Kang. So let's

00:53:58.769 --> 00:54:01.070
go to the TV shows. Because I think this is a

00:54:01.070 --> 00:54:03.190
little more drop -off. Yeah. Ms. Marvel, you

00:54:03.190 --> 00:54:05.050
said already. I'm going to watch, yeah. She -Hulk?

00:54:05.989 --> 00:54:08.269
Yes, because I like her in Marvel vs. Capcom

00:54:08.269 --> 00:54:12.010
3. That's my technicality. That's his in. Secret

00:54:12.010 --> 00:54:16.829
Invasion? Yes. Sure. Ironheart? That's the new

00:54:16.829 --> 00:54:20.369
Iron Man. Yeah. What is that? Can you give me

00:54:20.369 --> 00:54:23.929
the... I got nothing. She's like a teen genius.

00:54:25.420 --> 00:54:27.719
who... I'll watch the trailer and then decide

00:54:27.719 --> 00:54:29.980
there. How about that? So far, I... I would not

00:54:29.980 --> 00:54:32.619
be surprised if her character is introduced in

00:54:32.619 --> 00:54:34.860
Wakanda Forever. Okay. Yeah. Okay. That could

00:54:34.860 --> 00:54:38.019
make sense. Her name's like Riri, R -I -R -I,

00:54:38.119 --> 00:54:41.659
something like that. Yeah. Armor Wars? What?

00:54:41.699 --> 00:54:43.780
What is that? Armor Wars? Bionicles, you mean?

00:54:43.780 --> 00:54:46.000
It's the War Machine, the War Machine series.

00:54:46.320 --> 00:54:51.360
Good for Don Cheadle. Yeah. You know what happened?

00:54:51.619 --> 00:54:55.980
Okay, don't leave. I'm done with this game. Alright,

00:54:56.119 --> 00:54:59.719
let's review. Let's give our ratings to Doctor

00:54:59.719 --> 00:55:01.460
Strange because we've been letting people wait

00:55:01.460 --> 00:55:04.760
too long. And then we need to close out because

00:55:04.760 --> 00:55:09.039
we are well over an hour. Oh, Jesus. It does.

00:55:09.659 --> 00:55:13.039
We could have kept going, too. I get it. Alright.

00:55:14.440 --> 00:55:18.239
Jill, you want to start? You said it. You go

00:55:18.239 --> 00:55:23.349
ahead. Um... On a scale of zero to five, I will

00:55:23.349 --> 00:55:26.429
give Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness,

00:55:26.590 --> 00:55:30.809
I'm going to do the thing I hate, 3 .8 out of

00:55:30.809 --> 00:55:35.409
five lunchboxes. Okay. Lunchboxes. 3 .8? 3 .8.

00:55:35.409 --> 00:55:38.389
Nice. I liked it a lot. Yeah. But, you know,

00:55:38.389 --> 00:55:42.409
I need to see it again. Okay. I'm going to give

00:55:42.409 --> 00:55:47.309
it 3 .75 star shaped portals out of five. Okay.

00:55:47.409 --> 00:56:01.179
3 .75. Mitchell? Okay. Damn it. You took mine.

00:56:01.199 --> 00:56:07.000
You bastard. You took mine. Fuck you. All right.

00:56:09.659 --> 00:56:15.139
Three out of five. Damn it. I need to come up

00:56:15.139 --> 00:56:18.400
with one. Shit. Music battles. Fake children.

00:56:18.679 --> 00:56:22.320
Okay. Out of five. Yeah. That's messed up. That's

00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:27.360
fucked, dude. Yeah. Yeah. And they're real in

00:56:27.360 --> 00:56:29.300
every other multiverse except for every other

00:56:29.300 --> 00:56:31.300
universe except for hers apparently. It's kind

00:56:31.300 --> 00:56:34.019
of fucking close. Yeah. I have a theory about

00:56:34.019 --> 00:56:36.840
that. That's pretty fucked. I'll tell you off

00:56:36.840 --> 00:56:40.179
microphone my theory. Oh, okay. All right. So

00:56:40.179 --> 00:56:41.840
that'll do it for this episode of Game for a

00:56:41.840 --> 00:56:43.780
Movie where we ask are you game for a movie?

00:56:43.900 --> 00:56:47.659
I've been Mike. Jill. Andre. And Mitchell. Yeah.

00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:49.679
We will see you next time on Game for a Movie.

00:56:49.820 --> 00:56:50.460
Bye guys.
