00:00:14.130 --> 00:00:16.690
that struggle of who answers first yeah but when

00:00:16.690 --> 00:00:18.710
just the two of us it's actually kind of nice

00:00:18.710 --> 00:00:21.370
where it's just hey point it is super easy yeah

00:00:21.370 --> 00:00:26.230
uh we've had a day where we've been uh some of

00:00:26.230 --> 00:00:28.710
us have already been drinking some of us Well,

00:00:28.750 --> 00:00:30.629
no, both of us have already been drinking. So

00:00:30.629 --> 00:00:33.009
we're going to talk about the things we're drinking

00:00:33.009 --> 00:00:36.630
first. Usually we do it in the order that we

00:00:36.630 --> 00:00:39.350
go in. So I will go first. I'm drinking from

00:00:39.350 --> 00:00:42.609
the Noda Brewing Company Vampire Walrus, which

00:00:42.609 --> 00:00:48.409
has a very cool walrus with vampire teeth. I

00:00:48.409 --> 00:00:50.890
love this. This can design is awesome. And Noda

00:00:50.890 --> 00:00:52.770
seems like it's one of those. It is very cool.

00:00:53.049 --> 00:00:59.030
Yeah. This is a Imperial Dip. Apparently there's

00:00:59.030 --> 00:01:02.850
a yuzu fruit in it. That's interesting. I didn't

00:01:02.850 --> 00:01:04.730
know that, but it's very good. I actually really

00:01:04.730 --> 00:01:07.090
like it a lot. It's obviously I got it for the

00:01:07.090 --> 00:01:09.370
name and the can art, but the beer is actually

00:01:09.370 --> 00:01:11.650
pretty decent, too. So I'm like, all right, cool.

00:01:11.750 --> 00:01:15.670
I'm here for it. All right. So what do you got

00:01:15.670 --> 00:01:18.829
going over there? Well, I'm not currently drinking

00:01:18.829 --> 00:01:21.650
it, but I had an old favorite of yours earlier

00:01:21.650 --> 00:01:27.239
today from Reverie Washington Sour. it makes

00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:31.319
me so happy do you follow any of the reverie

00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.120

00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:36.540
the a beer fest i went to a couple weeks ago

00:01:36.540 --> 00:01:39.420
yeah um they didn't recognize us but like i mentioned

00:01:39.420 --> 00:01:41.519
your name and they're like oh yeah how's he doing

00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:48.280
uh dave is his name he was uh he was i guess

00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.319
cataloging their trip uh the reverie people went

00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:55.659
to nashville oh fun and it looked like a time

00:01:55.659 --> 00:01:58.900
like it looked like a hell of a time oh yeah

00:01:58.900 --> 00:02:02.260
it's fun i love reverie you also want to give

00:02:02.260 --> 00:02:07.379
a shout out oh sorry no go ahead yeah yeah as

00:02:07.379 --> 00:02:09.240
i said that's what i had earlier so as the name

00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:12.560
implies it is a sour um it's very vibrant and

00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:16.400
in color let me guess cherries not like not quite

00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:20.379
electric red okay but it's it's If you went into

00:02:20.379 --> 00:02:22.120
a haunted house, Sam Raimi would be proud of

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:24.360
that color of red. Let's put it that way. Sam

00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:28.400
Raimi. Yes, he loves color red. It's true. Yeah.

00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:32.860
I sipped a cotton candy sour roughly around the

00:02:32.860 --> 00:02:36.400
same time, and the smell of it was bleh, but

00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.199
it tasted way better. That was from Hoax. Okay.

00:02:39.699 --> 00:02:42.360
Yeah, Hoax. Oh, yeah, yeah. Okay, I know that

00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:45.280
one. They used to have that at the Oasis all

00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:49.960
the time. Very nice. Yeah. I had a couple of

00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.139
their beers also at that beer fest I went to

00:02:52.139 --> 00:02:54.900
not too long ago. Nice. Yeah, I'm jealous of

00:02:54.900 --> 00:02:59.120
the beer fest. It was fun. It wasn't perfect,

00:02:59.259 --> 00:03:02.620
though. There was some technical issues. This

00:03:02.620 --> 00:03:05.319
was the first year, I believe. So hopefully they

00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.560
iron out the kinks for next year. Okay. Yeah,

00:03:07.620 --> 00:03:10.419
that was our thing. We went to Moo Brewing Q,

00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:12.939
which is their third year or something like that.

00:03:13.979 --> 00:03:16.439
Music fest first, but it's like burgers, and

00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:19.840
then they added barbecue this year. um getting

00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:21.960
the vip ticket though you get two hours of beer

00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.740
tasting at the beginning and it almost because

00:03:24.740 --> 00:03:28.819
it doesn't sell well it almost is too much because

00:03:28.819 --> 00:03:32.520
like especially that second day we drank probably

00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:37.060
12 to 13 samples and then just coasted the rest

00:03:37.060 --> 00:03:39.680
of the way like we didn't get any more beer um

00:03:40.550 --> 00:03:42.409
Yeah, that was, it was a good time, but it was

00:03:42.409 --> 00:03:43.650
definitely one of those things where it's like,

00:03:43.689 --> 00:03:45.930
I like this and the fact that there's not many

00:03:45.930 --> 00:03:48.250
people here. So you kind of go, okay, where do

00:03:48.250 --> 00:03:50.189
we want to go? There, there, there, there. Okay,

00:03:50.250 --> 00:03:53.610
cool. We'll go to Noda. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Right

00:03:53.610 --> 00:03:55.669
on. I mean, the best rear fast are the ones where

00:03:55.669 --> 00:03:57.370
you don't have to stand half of it in a line.

00:03:57.449 --> 00:03:59.909
And that was pretty good about the one we were

00:03:59.909 --> 00:04:02.990
at. There was barely ever a wait, although the

00:04:02.990 --> 00:04:06.509
crowd around 12 % was nuts. Yeah. Rightfully

00:04:06.509 --> 00:04:12.919
so. 12%. Shout out to Christian. Yep. All right,

00:04:12.979 --> 00:04:15.340
so let's get started with the movies. I watched

00:04:15.340 --> 00:04:18.500
a new movie. This came out on 420, so you can

00:04:18.500 --> 00:04:21.160
see what we're dealing with. It is the movie

00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:24.060
Quasi, which is the latest from the Broken Lizard

00:04:24.060 --> 00:04:27.199
Gang. They're responsible for such films as like

00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:29.660
Super Troopers, Beer Fest, those kind of movies,

00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:32.720
as well as Tacoma FDU, which is on television.

00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:37.060
I know those movies, but I didn't know the group

00:04:37.060 --> 00:04:41.779
had... absolute ignorant moron i like i said

00:04:41.779 --> 00:04:43.480
i knew super troopers didn't know the group had

00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:47.600
a name yes the broken lizard films yes um and

00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:50.079
what i'll say is this one definitely is like

00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:54.040
the first real attempt where it's like oh this

00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:56.360
is monty python like we're trying to be monty

00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.000
python especially there's a hole there yeah it's

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.720
it's a 1600s french you know like it's not quite

00:05:05.310 --> 00:05:08.110
uh holy grail levels but it's definitely trying

00:05:08.110 --> 00:05:12.350
for that um it's the story of quasimodo who's

00:05:12.350 --> 00:05:16.089
trying to find love in this sad sad world uh

00:05:16.089 --> 00:05:19.269
meanwhile the pope and the king the pope is coming

00:05:19.269 --> 00:05:22.389
to france and the king of france wants to kill

00:05:22.389 --> 00:05:25.649
the pope while the pope wants to kill the king

00:05:25.649 --> 00:05:28.930
the king wants to kill the pope because if the

00:05:28.930 --> 00:05:31.149
pope's out of the way then he has like the strongest

00:05:31.149 --> 00:05:33.750
army because he just married this woman for her

00:05:34.670 --> 00:05:37.829
uh for british army basically to like unite the

00:05:37.829 --> 00:05:41.870
kingdoms uh and then the pope wants to kill the

00:05:41.870 --> 00:05:44.310
king because the king obviously has these aspirations

00:05:44.310 --> 00:05:49.990
and a complete dick bag all right the guy who

00:05:49.990 --> 00:05:52.569
uh played farva and super troopers is the director

00:05:52.569 --> 00:05:55.829
and what i think i like best about this film

00:05:55.829 --> 00:05:58.129
is that they play multiple characters like all

00:05:58.129 --> 00:06:00.050
of them really play multiple characters at least

00:06:00.050 --> 00:06:03.089
of the main gang um because there's a lot of

00:06:03.089 --> 00:06:07.709
times where uh i think his name is um let's see

00:06:07.709 --> 00:06:09.870
i gotta pull this up i didn't pull it up on my

00:06:09.870 --> 00:06:11.709
i pulled it up on my computer i didn't pull it

00:06:11.709 --> 00:06:16.670
up on my actual character uh it is so it's um

00:06:16.670 --> 00:06:21.449
kevin heffernan okay um he plays characters that

00:06:21.449 --> 00:06:24.329
come into contact with each other a lot and like

00:06:24.329 --> 00:06:26.529
every time he calls kind of calls himself out

00:06:26.529 --> 00:06:31.759
like who's this fat bastard you know He very

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:35.300
much understands the, okay, he's the overweight

00:06:35.300 --> 00:06:38.379
guy. Let's call him out, you know? Yeah, gotcha.

00:06:38.540 --> 00:06:43.899
So Steve Lemme plays Quasi, who's obviously Quasimodo.

00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:48.379
Is it a musical? It is not a musical, no. No,

00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:50.680
I'm sorry. There's no Knights of the Round Table.

00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.000
We dance whenever we're able. Nothing like that.

00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:57.480
No one tries to burst into song and then is promptly

00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:00.319
shutted. No, there's no bursting of songs. There

00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:06.060
are chants, like a lot of chants. Yeah, that's

00:07:06.060 --> 00:07:09.519
as close as we get. The constant theme is talking

00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:11.680
about oysters and how it's the food of kings.

00:07:12.379 --> 00:07:15.759
And Quasi and his torture mates, because they

00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:19.019
run the torture chamber in France. basically

00:07:19.019 --> 00:07:21.660
they want oysters so they keep going oysters

00:07:21.660 --> 00:07:26.439
oysters oysters oysters oysters you know like

00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:31.459
that kind of stuff that happens a lot um it is

00:07:31.459 --> 00:07:34.220
ridiculous and ridiculous do you know what the

00:07:34.220 --> 00:07:36.699
tagline is for the movie i don't top your head

00:07:36.699 --> 00:07:41.000
uh oh every day is hump day yeah yeah that's

00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:44.819
a lot without without saying much yes yeah and

00:07:44.819 --> 00:07:47.939
i mean there's there's there's gross out humor.

00:07:48.060 --> 00:07:51.180
There's tons of jokes about his hump. He gets

00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:53.279
stabbed in the hump at one point. So it constantly,

00:07:53.540 --> 00:07:57.079
well, it's all right. He gets an arrow, sorry,

00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:59.300
but he gets an arrow and like constantly people

00:07:59.300 --> 00:08:00.959
are like giving him a hug. Like, are you okay?

00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.040
And every time they hug him, it shoots like a

00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:07.480
spurt of blood out of his hump. Yeah. It hit

00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:14.319
my fatty deposit. I'm good. It is very stupid

00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:17.430
humor. But the Broken Lizard gang, I love their

00:08:17.430 --> 00:08:19.850
movies. Like, it's just fun because you can tell

00:08:19.850 --> 00:08:21.670
they're having a good time. They love each other.

00:08:22.370 --> 00:08:25.769
And especially this one. It's really weird because

00:08:25.769 --> 00:08:29.589
it is a combination of everything. Really? It's

00:08:29.589 --> 00:08:33.049
everybody from the Broken Lizard troop, obviously.

00:08:33.769 --> 00:08:36.649
They got Brian Cox back, who was in Super Troopers.

00:08:37.740 --> 00:08:40.120
And then some of the supporting characters are

00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:44.440
the people that were in Tacoma FD or some of

00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.559
their other movies. You're just like, oh, it's

00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:48.299
that guy from that thing. It's that girl from

00:08:48.299 --> 00:08:52.019
that thing. And so it's kind of fun to see that

00:08:52.019 --> 00:08:56.659
because... Sorry, I just am scrolling through

00:08:56.659 --> 00:09:00.100
the IMDb and I forgot. Have a good time. Well,

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:03.639
Phil Hudson's a character in this. There's a

00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:05.899
part where they're trying to, like, sing a song

00:09:05.899 --> 00:09:10.059
for Quasi. And so they sing Frere Jacques. Because

00:09:10.059 --> 00:09:11.820
there's constant jokes about that, too, where,

00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:14.259
like, they say, like, that's impossible. You

00:09:14.259 --> 00:09:16.600
know, like, over -the -top French kind of things.

00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:19.759
And so they're singing Frere Jacques. And they

00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:22.320
go, only the sheep fuckers. And this guy, like,

00:09:22.460 --> 00:09:25.440
starts going and he starts singing. He's literally

00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:30.470
called sheep fucker in the IMDb page. So this

00:09:30.470 --> 00:09:32.610
seems almost like an homage to, like, that bygone

00:09:32.610 --> 00:09:35.649
era of comedy used from, like, anywhere from

00:09:35.649 --> 00:09:38.730
the late 70s into the mid -90s almost before

00:09:38.730 --> 00:09:43.809
you get the rat humor of the 2000s. Yeah, and

00:09:43.809 --> 00:09:46.129
that's the thing is, like, they try to, each

00:09:46.129 --> 00:09:49.049
movie definitely feels a little different. So,

00:09:49.049 --> 00:09:52.370
like, Super Troopers, obviously buddy cops kind

00:09:52.370 --> 00:09:55.769
of thing, like a, you know, goofy highway patrolman,

00:09:55.850 --> 00:09:59.129
that kind of thing. club dread is one of my favorites

00:09:59.129 --> 00:10:02.929
um that's basically these guys go to an island

00:10:02.929 --> 00:10:05.870
because of this singer you know like it's like

00:10:05.870 --> 00:10:08.370
the the cruises and stuff like that it's very

00:10:08.370 --> 00:10:11.809
much jimmy buffett style um but there's a murderer

00:10:11.809 --> 00:10:14.909
on the island killing people one by one oh i

00:10:14.909 --> 00:10:16.789
love this one club dread is one of my favorites

00:10:16.789 --> 00:10:19.450
it's dumb as shit and i'm not gonna i'm not gonna

00:10:19.450 --> 00:10:23.090
lie about that but it's so much fun to just turn

00:10:23.090 --> 00:10:26.500
your brain off and watch it They have one called

00:10:26.500 --> 00:10:29.000
Slammin' Salmon, which I haven't seen that one,

00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:31.600
but that's basically waiting. It's like a parody

00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:34.360
of waiting. Okay. This one was definitely like

00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:36.659
an homage to like Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

00:10:36.820 --> 00:10:38.779
And then, of course, Beer Fest is Beer Fest.

00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.940
As a thing would imply. Yes. I don't think I've

00:10:42.940 --> 00:10:45.200
seen any of their films, to be honest. Not even

00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:47.659
Super Troopers? I know of Super Troopers, but

00:10:47.659 --> 00:10:50.559
don't be shocked. Like, this is not tend to be

00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:54.019
my type of humor, but. Oh, I think it's definitely

00:10:54.019 --> 00:10:56.860
your humor. Is it? I like stupid things, but

00:10:56.860 --> 00:10:59.539
I'm very particular about my stupid things. At

00:10:59.539 --> 00:11:01.519
least I like to think I am. So I'm going to say

00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:05.019
watch Super Troopers. Yeah, like I enjoy the

00:11:05.019 --> 00:11:12.340
dumbness of like Pineapple Express or. Yes, Pineapple

00:11:12.340 --> 00:11:14.440
Express falls in this category. Fast and the

00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:18.139
Furious 2, but then something like Year One.

00:11:18.820 --> 00:11:21.759
Oh, no, this is not Year One. No, no, no. No,

00:11:21.779 --> 00:11:24.139
this is definitely like they have fun. And like,

00:11:24.299 --> 00:11:27.820
I think what I like about these movies is that

00:11:27.820 --> 00:11:31.580
all of them have fun. Like each one. Yeah. And

00:11:31.580 --> 00:11:34.559
each one you can tell like the entire it's mostly

00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:39.320
like the same five guys. You can tell they love

00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:41.080
each other. They're having fun, like hanging

00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:42.879
out with their friends and just making a movie.

00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:46.019
And that's what I'll say about quasi is like

00:11:46.019 --> 00:11:48.580
it's not the best of the best. I have it as number

00:11:48.580 --> 00:11:51.840
five out of the six. broken lizards things i've

00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:56.059
seen but that being said out of those six five

00:11:56.059 --> 00:11:58.580
of those i'd watch again like i'd watch quasi

00:11:58.580 --> 00:12:01.639
again um obviously super troopers at the top

00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:06.980
club dread beer fest tacoma fd quasi and then

00:12:06.980 --> 00:12:09.700
super troopers too they just yeah that felt forced

00:12:09.700 --> 00:12:14.500
that one was definitely a forced one um but that's

00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:16.399
my thing with broken lizard as i think that's

00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:18.240
what i like about them the most is that they

00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:21.570
have fun with this There you go. I mean, that's

00:12:21.570 --> 00:12:23.610
what sells half the movie sometimes, even when

00:12:23.610 --> 00:12:28.049
it's garbage. The vampire Transylvania movie

00:12:28.049 --> 00:12:30.830
that we watched. That movie was dumb as bricks.

00:12:30.970 --> 00:12:33.230
But like, yeah, I would say it's just a bunch

00:12:33.230 --> 00:12:35.570
of friends making a movie. Exactly. Yeah. And

00:12:35.570 --> 00:12:37.490
that's exactly what it feels like. It's definitely

00:12:37.490 --> 00:12:41.029
like National Lampoon like that. Yeah, I would

00:12:41.029 --> 00:12:43.549
agree with that. And so that's why I think I

00:12:43.549 --> 00:12:46.519
like this one. I don't love it. But it's not

00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:49.279
the worst thing I've seen. And it's not the worst

00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:51.740
thing I've seen of theirs. Yeah. I'm not telling

00:12:51.740 --> 00:12:53.860
you as somebody who has not seen Broken Lizard,

00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.179
do not start with Quasi. No. I would say start

00:12:57.179 --> 00:12:59.360
with Beer Fester Super Troopers. Those are probably

00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:01.940
the two that are the most loved. And then if

00:13:01.940 --> 00:13:04.419
you're feeling it, go to Club Dread. That's my

00:13:04.419 --> 00:13:09.340
like go -to, one of my go -tos. It's weird because

00:13:09.340 --> 00:13:11.120
I've probably seen it the same amount of times

00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:13.720
I've seen Clue. yeah those are my like go -to

00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:20.899
comics i know blue and club dread yeah i'm now

00:13:20.899 --> 00:13:22.700
thinking of like all the dumb movies i like harold

00:13:22.700 --> 00:13:25.539
and kumar at least the first one harold and kumar

00:13:25.539 --> 00:13:28.139
would fall on this list i'd think yeah you know

00:13:28.139 --> 00:13:29.659
there's a really there was a time in my life

00:13:29.659 --> 00:13:31.639
where i really liked american pie three the one

00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:34.320
where specifically the third one three the wedding

00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:37.379
and the wedding one like american wedding yeah

00:13:38.110 --> 00:13:40.990
Oh, my God. I saw the first one. I think I, like,

00:13:40.990 --> 00:13:43.870
only seen the second one once. And then the third

00:13:43.870 --> 00:13:47.029
one, like, that was a library or blockbuster.

00:13:47.610 --> 00:13:50.549
Gonna rent that movie. Did you ever see, so,

00:13:50.610 --> 00:13:52.789
like, Alison Hannigan apparently recently got

00:13:52.789 --> 00:13:55.649
asked what movie she regrets doing. Oh, really?

00:13:55.750 --> 00:13:59.269
No, I didn't. And she goes, I regret none of

00:13:59.269 --> 00:14:03.370
the movies I'd done. I just regret the line she

00:14:03.370 --> 00:14:07.000
had from American Pie. because now she has kids

00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:10.139
people come up to her and were just like oh that

00:14:10.139 --> 00:14:12.279
one time at band camp and she's like don't finish

00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:15.799
the rest of that line these are my kids so i

00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:19.480
guess that means because wasn't she a scary movie

00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:23.659
had like date movie wasn't she the main character

00:14:23.659 --> 00:14:28.080
of date movie You got me on that. She is. It's

00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:30.759
very possible. I never saw a date movie. I'd

00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:32.919
given up on the scary movies at that one. Yeah,

00:14:33.019 --> 00:14:35.559
I'd given up on the scary movies. Yep, yeah,

00:14:35.659 --> 00:14:37.899
she's the main character. I've only seen that

00:14:37.899 --> 00:14:39.519
one, I think, once or twice. You know, the second

00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:42.940
scary movie. Oh, the fat suit. Also, great movie.

00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.779
Yes. The fat suit. Shallow Howl, a date movie,

00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:50.759
or something about that. Instead of putting glasses

00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:55.509
on a woman, they decided to go with that. I get

00:14:55.509 --> 00:14:58.289
the outrage with Shallow Hal, but I actually

00:14:58.289 --> 00:15:01.389
really love it because the message is like, don't,

00:15:01.389 --> 00:15:05.929
you know. Yeah, exactly. See the inner beauty,

00:15:06.049 --> 00:15:08.649
that kind of thing. And so I get why they used

00:15:08.649 --> 00:15:11.909
a fat suit. And that, like, at least they found

00:15:11.909 --> 00:15:18.070
a reason to. Is it good? Is it okay? No. it aged

00:15:18.070 --> 00:15:21.590
poorly yes yeah that's exactly it yeah when it

00:15:21.590 --> 00:15:23.830
first came out i was like good yeah okay cool

00:15:23.830 --> 00:15:27.070
i see that i see the merits of this and now yeah

00:15:27.070 --> 00:15:30.570
i'm with you it aged poorly speaking of uh connecting

00:15:30.570 --> 00:15:33.009
this to jack black we're in like the jack blackissance

00:15:33.009 --> 00:15:35.950
we are i love it i mean he never technically

00:15:35.950 --> 00:15:39.809
went away but like no but i'm all for it i he's

00:15:39.809 --> 00:15:42.070
my favorite character by far in the jumanji movies

00:15:42.070 --> 00:15:44.090
that they've made i haven't seen the second one

00:15:44.090 --> 00:15:46.590
but i loved him in the first one So the second

00:15:46.590 --> 00:15:48.809
one giving very little spoilers here, and this

00:15:48.809 --> 00:15:50.710
is like the tiniest, the tiniest of spoilers.

00:15:51.289 --> 00:15:53.730
When the characters go back in the game, they

00:15:53.730 --> 00:15:55.549
don't end up with their same characters that

00:15:55.549 --> 00:15:58.429
they were before. And so Jack Black has to be

00:15:58.429 --> 00:16:01.909
a completely different character. Oh, it's so

00:16:01.909 --> 00:16:03.710
good because there's so many times where it's

00:16:03.710 --> 00:16:08.629
just like, oh, yeah, he's not Bethany. It's very

00:16:08.629 --> 00:16:13.549
good. Nice. To bring back the conversation, and

00:16:13.549 --> 00:16:16.320
I actually can connect. One of the things I'm

00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:18.840
going to talk about to the Broken Lizard group,

00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:23.100
to Brian Cox. Brian Cox. There's like some preamble

00:16:23.100 --> 00:16:25.360
to how I landed on the thing I landed. Okay,

00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:28.299
I'm ready. Take me down the rabbit hole. So as

00:16:28.299 --> 00:16:31.200
you know, Andre and I watched the original Bourne

00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:35.320
trilogy. Yes. For a long period of time. Holy

00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:37.940
shit, Jason Bourne. I think we started it a year

00:16:37.940 --> 00:16:40.559
ago or like nine months ago with the first one.

00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:44.240
Okay. So we most recently just watched the final

00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:46.820
one, Born Supremacy, right? No. Or is it – no,

00:16:46.899 --> 00:16:49.120
Born Ultimatum. Ultimatum because it goes in

00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:51.940
alphabetical order. Identity, supremacy, ultimatum.

00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:54.399
That's clever. Ultimatum. Yeah, exactly. And

00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:57.259
then legacy is – fuck legacy. That's the one

00:16:57.259 --> 00:17:01.600
with Hawkeye, right? Jeremy Renner. Jeremy Renner.

00:17:01.740 --> 00:17:03.840
Yeah. I was going to say Rob Rainer and I'm like

00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:07.039
that's not the right person. Rob Rainer. I know

00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:10.279
how you get there though. It's the R's. It's

00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:13.500
the R's. So Brian Cox is actually in The Bourne

00:17:13.500 --> 00:17:15.619
Supremacy as Ward Abbott. I don't remember who

00:17:15.619 --> 00:17:18.700
that is, but he's in the movie. So there's the

00:17:18.700 --> 00:17:20.900
little connective tissue here. So having finished

00:17:20.900 --> 00:17:24.619
the original trilogy, it was kind of like a thriller

00:17:24.619 --> 00:17:29.819
American government hole in my heart. Okay. I

00:17:29.819 --> 00:17:31.799
love how you're getting here. Yeah, well, no,

00:17:31.920 --> 00:17:34.140
I'm making it work. I'm making it work. Roughly

00:17:34.140 --> 00:17:38.519
around this time, Netflix's The Night Agent miniseries

00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:42.359
had come out. So, considering 1 plus 1 equals

00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:47.279
2, I decided to give it a go. 1 plus 1 equals

00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:50.539
2. Oh, it does equal 2. Okay, sorry, I was carrying

00:17:50.539 --> 00:17:54.579
the 1. It does equal 2. Do you know the series

00:17:54.579 --> 00:17:56.759
that I'm talking about? Yes, I do. Claire has

00:17:56.759 --> 00:17:59.079
been watching it. I have not been watching it,

00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:02.200
but she turned it on today, and I saw D .B. Woodside,

00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:04.299
and that made me very happy. It made me happy,

00:18:04.380 --> 00:18:08.200
too, because he will always forever be from Buffy.

00:18:08.939 --> 00:18:12.279
That's how I know him. Okay. Oh, my God. I can't

00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:15.920
remember his name right now. I have him as I

00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:21.740
remember him more as a Mendel from Lucifer now.

00:18:22.299 --> 00:18:24.819
Ah, the show I should watch, but I have not seen.

00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:26.720
Yes, you should see Lucifer. It was actually

00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:29.559
pretty good. I hate how much I loved it. Well,

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:31.759
besides the last season, I was not how much you

00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:34.619
loved it. Yeah, I hate how much I loved it because

00:18:34.619 --> 00:18:37.380
it's not for me. Like, that's that's not a show.

00:18:38.269 --> 00:18:41.289
That you're looking at going, oh, yes, Mike would

00:18:41.289 --> 00:18:45.769
like Lucifer. But I did really enjoy it. Principal

00:18:45.769 --> 00:18:49.450
Robin. Yeah, Robin would. Robin would. That's

00:18:49.450 --> 00:18:52.130
it. There's a great episode with his like his

00:18:52.130 --> 00:18:54.890
mother's backstory that he. Yeah. His character

00:18:54.890 --> 00:18:58.150
is great. So very happy to see him. I forgot

00:18:58.150 --> 00:19:01.289
he was in 24. I never saw 24. I don't know if

00:19:01.289 --> 00:19:04.329
I'm going to. watch it you don't i don't have

00:19:04.329 --> 00:19:06.210
that big of a hole for an american political

00:19:06.210 --> 00:19:10.450
thriller yeah you don't need to go back not like

00:19:10.450 --> 00:19:16.509
the island no um go back so the night agent uh

00:19:16.509 --> 00:19:19.549
this this uh is available right now on netflix

00:19:19.549 --> 00:19:22.329
like i said it is a mini series i believe it's

00:19:22.329 --> 00:19:26.769
adapted from an existing property um okay that

00:19:26.769 --> 00:19:29.839
wouldn't shock me It is based on a novel, so

00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:34.140
an adaptation of a novel. Okay. Yeah. As I was

00:19:34.140 --> 00:19:36.799
saying, it's an American political spy thriller.

00:19:36.940 --> 00:19:39.799
It starts with an FBI agent getting a phone call

00:19:39.799 --> 00:19:42.299
during their shift, and from there, political

00:19:42.299 --> 00:19:48.140
intrigue, espionage, lots of shootouts, sneaking

00:19:48.140 --> 00:19:52.460
around. Nice. A little dash of sex. Yeah. Great.

00:19:53.940 --> 00:19:56.900
I love how that's the reasoning. Like, oh, yeah,

00:19:56.940 --> 00:20:01.059
that's great. no i mean i don't there's not much

00:20:01.059 --> 00:20:02.960
i can talk about it without it starting to snowball

00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:06.019
into spoilers okay but if you're in the market

00:20:06.019 --> 00:20:09.660
for something i love the tagline heroes aren't

00:20:09.660 --> 00:20:13.140
born they answer the call i feel like that tagline

00:20:13.140 --> 00:20:14.720
kind of does it a disservice it makes it more

00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:17.339
cheesy than it sounds it definitely does no and

00:20:17.339 --> 00:20:20.539
i'm not saying it's a good tagline it's not but

00:20:20.539 --> 00:20:23.880
i'll liken it to like a nice summer day paperback

00:20:24.490 --> 00:20:27.289
You want something that's going to engage you,

00:20:27.349 --> 00:20:29.509
but then when you're done, you can walk away

00:20:29.509 --> 00:20:31.690
from it and be like, yeah, that was a fun ride.

00:20:32.289 --> 00:20:34.430
It's not going to linger with you for too long,

00:20:34.430 --> 00:20:37.089
though. I'm sure within about... Actually, this

00:20:37.089 --> 00:20:40.619
thing came out in... when did it premiere it

00:20:40.619 --> 00:20:42.740
premiered in march i feel like i didn't start

00:20:42.740 --> 00:20:45.539
hearing about it until late april early may and

00:20:45.539 --> 00:20:48.500
just as short -lived as the talk discussion was

00:20:48.500 --> 00:20:51.240
and it that was primarily because the diplomat

00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:53.140
also came out on netflix and people were like

00:20:53.140 --> 00:20:55.339
oh this little there's a little spy thriller

00:20:55.339 --> 00:20:58.940
renaissance happening now just as quickly i feel

00:20:58.940 --> 00:21:01.460
like the discourse has moved on plus now we have

00:21:01.460 --> 00:21:04.079
this class of 09 coming out or whatever and that

00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:07.099
feels like another one I don't know what that

00:21:07.099 --> 00:21:11.160
is. That's Kate Mara, Brian Tyree Henry. It's

00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:14.779
on FX, but they've released like some of it on

00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:20.160
Hulu. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's

00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:21.740
kind of interesting. I don't know. That's that's

00:21:21.740 --> 00:21:23.259
one of the shows that caught my attention where

00:21:23.259 --> 00:21:25.299
I was like, OK, cool. I'll check that one out.

00:21:25.900 --> 00:21:28.019
It's really interesting because Kate Mara is

00:21:28.019 --> 00:21:31.279
like top series cast. She's in all the promotions,

00:21:31.500 --> 00:21:34.180
but she's like number 10 on the list of people.

00:21:35.230 --> 00:21:37.630
Is that a good sign or a bad sign? Well, I'm

00:21:37.630 --> 00:21:42.630
wondering if it's a like, oh, hey, we have Kate

00:21:42.630 --> 00:21:46.990
Mara. Watch this show. And then all of a sudden

00:21:46.990 --> 00:21:48.650
she gets killed off. Yeah, she's not really in

00:21:48.650 --> 00:21:51.009
it. Or something like that. Yeah. And this is

00:21:51.009 --> 00:21:53.549
I know nothing about Class of 09. This is not

00:21:53.549 --> 00:21:55.390
me spoiling it or anything like that. But it's

00:21:55.390 --> 00:21:56.710
just one of those things where it kind of feels

00:21:56.710 --> 00:22:00.980
like Kate Mara's 10? Well, also around. roughly

00:22:00.980 --> 00:22:02.579
around this time period there was the talk of

00:22:02.579 --> 00:22:06.319
the citadel tv series coming out that i don't

00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:07.720
know much about it but i know it was not well

00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:10.119
received yeah it's not it's not well received

00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:12.000
at all good thing because apparently it's part

00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:16.299
of a bigger bigger thing like a bigger universe

00:22:16.299 --> 00:22:19.440
yeah um the guy who created the night agent this

00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:22.339
seems to be his bread and butter um he was he

00:22:22.339 --> 00:22:24.420
wrote for the shield he created the shield he

00:22:24.420 --> 00:22:28.859
wrote for the unit yeah um Swat. He is currently

00:22:28.859 --> 00:22:30.319
the creator, writer, and executive producer.

00:22:30.539 --> 00:22:32.440
So this dude knows what he's doing when it comes

00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:35.160
to crafting a story like this. Yeah, sorry. I

00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:39.039
just typed in The Citadel. The second review,

00:22:39.380 --> 00:22:41.839
three stars. The script was probably written

00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:47.519
by ChatGPT. Ouch. There are some good names attached

00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:50.640
to The Citadel, too. Richard Madden, and then

00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:55.319
we've got Priyanka Chopra Jonas. And who's the

00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:58.150
main guy? Oh, Stanley Tucci. Yeah, Stanley Tucci.

00:22:58.150 --> 00:23:01.990
I love Stanley Tucci. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, my God.

00:23:02.049 --> 00:23:04.130
That's funny. That's the Night Agent. And I'm

00:23:04.130 --> 00:23:05.589
sure people probably would have talked about

00:23:05.589 --> 00:23:08.529
it a little bit longer if a little prequel series

00:23:08.529 --> 00:23:12.430
to a Netflix juggernaut hadn't come out. And

00:23:12.430 --> 00:23:15.190
you're thinking I'm talking about Indian matchmaking.

00:23:15.349 --> 00:23:20.400
You would be correct. But actually. There is

00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:23.119
the Jewish matchmaking. I thought about watching

00:23:23.119 --> 00:23:25.460
that actually just to have something for the

00:23:25.460 --> 00:23:29.740
show. I thought about watching it. I, I have

00:23:29.740 --> 00:23:32.519
not engaged. I'm morbidly curious, but I feel

00:23:32.519 --> 00:23:35.000
like I need to make it a drinking game. Oh yes,

00:23:35.059 --> 00:23:37.299
definitely. And please invite me to watch that

00:23:37.299 --> 00:23:40.079
drinking game. I feel like through like through

00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:44.859
the, my, the gaps of my fingers. but uh yeah

00:23:44.859 --> 00:23:47.500
no in my i i can't think of a clever off the

00:23:47.500 --> 00:23:49.619
top of my head connective tissue of how to jump

00:23:49.619 --> 00:23:51.200
from the night agent to queen charlotte other

00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:54.220
than hey it's netflix it's netflix but i've also

00:23:54.220 --> 00:23:56.700
watched that i think i watched that over the

00:23:56.700 --> 00:24:00.160
course of roughly 48 48 hours like two days they

00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:03.079
release everything okay that's the nice thing

00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:06.299
about netflix unlike our watch of ted lasso like

00:24:06.299 --> 00:24:08.819
i'm enjoying the week to week but there is something

00:24:08.819 --> 00:24:12.069
very refreshing about just we have said that

00:24:12.069 --> 00:24:14.190
we are going to watch season three of ted lasso

00:24:14.190 --> 00:24:15.950
when it's all out i think they have one more

00:24:15.950 --> 00:24:17.650
week or something like that or two more weeks

00:24:17.650 --> 00:24:19.970
two more weeks yeah okay the third to last episode

00:24:19.970 --> 00:24:22.289
so we're literally yeah we're going to watch

00:24:22.289 --> 00:24:26.390
it all like one day binge it thank you so the

00:24:26.390 --> 00:24:28.549
episodes are much longer this this season they're

00:24:28.549 --> 00:24:30.470
about an hour each yeah that's what i've heard

00:24:30.470 --> 00:24:32.529
okay all right you have to let me know what you

00:24:32.529 --> 00:24:36.490
think seeing it all in one go yeah um but yeah

00:24:36.490 --> 00:24:40.970
queen charlotte queen charlotte dory um this

00:24:40.970 --> 00:24:43.890
is really pinkies up have you seen any of the

00:24:43.890 --> 00:24:50.650
bridgerton no hi no no nothing it's not you don't

00:24:50.650 --> 00:24:54.950
want a period set romance bodice ripper you literally

00:24:54.950 --> 00:24:58.730
said period and i was like i'm done i'm off uh

00:24:58.730 --> 00:25:01.589
i'm not usually the period type i'm not usually

00:25:01.589 --> 00:25:06.369
the uh drama type i like I'm talking about a

00:25:06.369 --> 00:25:09.670
broken lizard movie on this podcast today. It's

00:25:09.670 --> 00:25:12.990
not for me. So a slow boil romance over like

00:25:12.990 --> 00:25:15.190
eight episodes of Will They Won't They would

00:25:15.190 --> 00:25:18.390
not be titillating to you. No, no, it would not.

00:25:18.789 --> 00:25:21.750
Regé -Jean Page is all the titillation I need.

00:25:23.190 --> 00:25:26.170
He's not in this. He is not in this. And probably

00:25:26.170 --> 00:25:28.349
will never be in any Bridgerton thing again.

00:25:28.549 --> 00:25:31.049
He's done. He's living his best white life off

00:25:31.049 --> 00:25:34.920
as a paladin in the D &D universe. No, Queen,

00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:37.500
it was really good. I don't want to beat around

00:25:37.500 --> 00:25:39.019
the bush. The Queen Charlotte of Bridgerton story

00:25:39.019 --> 00:25:42.940
was one of the few prequel things where... Are

00:25:42.940 --> 00:25:45.200
you okay? Did you just get beard in the eye?

00:25:46.700 --> 00:25:49.140
I did. I was trying to get the pop. It's right

00:25:49.140 --> 00:25:53.079
by my eye. I take that as a sign. I don't think

00:25:53.079 --> 00:25:55.619
that beer wants to be drunk. This beer was fine.

00:25:56.259 --> 00:26:01.420
It's very foamy. God, ow. I can't believe that

00:26:01.420 --> 00:26:04.920
just happened. That was Bridgerton karma. Ah,

00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:07.059
yes, that is Bridgerton Carmen. That's me calling

00:26:07.059 --> 00:26:10.720
out any period piece now. The women will rise.

00:26:12.119 --> 00:26:15.220
So what was I saying before you got beard? This

00:26:15.220 --> 00:26:19.849
is the one of, you know how some TV series. They'll

00:26:19.849 --> 00:26:22.150
make prequels and it's just because they want

00:26:22.150 --> 00:26:23.910
to keep the cash coming in on the franchise.

00:26:24.890 --> 00:26:30.109
I'm sure if Westworld had done better, we would

00:26:30.109 --> 00:26:32.289
have gotten a Westworld prequel series. Well,

00:26:32.309 --> 00:26:34.230
we got the Lord of the Rings prequel series and

00:26:34.230 --> 00:26:37.269
it's apparently not very good. I disagree. I

00:26:37.269 --> 00:26:40.509
liked it. Did you like it? Okay. Yeah. Unfortunately,

00:26:40.750 --> 00:26:44.430
I mean, fortunately, unfortunately, writers deserve

00:26:44.430 --> 00:26:47.539
fair compensation. yes the writing has been i

00:26:47.539 --> 00:26:50.220
believe halted yeah um no i agree completely

00:26:50.220 --> 00:26:54.640
yeah this is a good point to share like a wga

00:26:54.640 --> 00:26:58.140
strike we're behind you i don't know what it

00:26:58.140 --> 00:27:00.640
matters that our little podcast is behind you

00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:04.000
but we just want you to know that we stand with

00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:06.740
you and did you see the picture there's a picture

00:27:06.740 --> 00:27:09.119
that i think is right up your alley that you'd

00:27:09.119 --> 00:27:12.500
like oh i have not seen it mandy patinkin's on

00:27:12.500 --> 00:27:17.250
the line He has a sign that says, my name is

00:27:17.250 --> 00:27:20.789
Mandy Patinkin. You underpaid my writers. Prepare

00:27:20.789 --> 00:27:24.210
to pay. Love that. Love that, man. What a treasure.

00:27:24.549 --> 00:27:27.230
But also there's a picture of Lin -Manuel Miranda

00:27:27.230 --> 00:27:30.990
bringing him and his friends donuts on the line.

00:27:31.009 --> 00:27:33.089
Oh, I did hear about that. Oh, it's so good.

00:27:33.410 --> 00:27:36.789
I love it. I love it. So we stand behind you,

00:27:36.809 --> 00:27:41.519
WGA. We do. Yeah. Sorry. Okay. Sorry about that.

00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:45.200
No. Queen Charlotte. This is one of the rare

00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:48.180
– getting to the point. This is a really good

00:27:48.180 --> 00:27:51.500
prequel series. And if anything, I kind of wish

00:27:51.500 --> 00:27:54.380
they hadn't tried so hard to give a subtle B

00:27:54.380 --> 00:27:57.180
plot to kind of weave through the A story that

00:27:57.180 --> 00:27:59.579
connects it back to the present day. I don't

00:27:59.579 --> 00:28:01.019
necessarily know if it's going to lead into season

00:28:01.019 --> 00:28:04.960
three of Bridgerton, but they gave a little fan

00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:07.440
service to those. who are interested in the Bridgerton

00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:09.799
plot lines without really trying to split the

00:28:09.799 --> 00:28:13.589
narrative. Yeah. It was really fantastic. It

00:28:13.589 --> 00:28:15.630
served up everything you want from a Bridgerton

00:28:15.630 --> 00:28:18.210
style story. You really go to like the characters,

00:28:18.289 --> 00:28:20.750
the sexual tension and the romantic tension for

00:28:20.750 --> 00:28:22.630
that matter. And young King George looks like

00:28:22.630 --> 00:28:25.109
our old landlord. So your old landlord, not mine.

00:28:25.150 --> 00:28:29.730
I know my old landlord. Sorry. Yeah. Greg, if

00:28:29.730 --> 00:28:31.849
you listen to this, you look like young King

00:28:31.849 --> 00:28:34.910
George. So compliment. Yeah. Oh no, it definitely

00:28:34.910 --> 00:28:41.420
is. Use that. No, it's really good. It's well

00:28:41.420 --> 00:28:44.119
acted. I would say it's well written. If you're

00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:47.319
a fan of the contemporary music being translated

00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:51.640
into Regency era composition, it's great for

00:28:51.640 --> 00:28:55.740
that too. Nice. Yeah. It's impressive when you

00:28:55.740 --> 00:28:58.799
watch something like this and you realize it's

00:28:58.799 --> 00:29:01.680
far more than just I'm here for the sex. Yeah,

00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:04.299
right. Which I would imagine that's why people

00:29:04.299 --> 00:29:06.460
were attracted to Fifty Shades of Grey. You're

00:29:06.460 --> 00:29:09.769
here for that. You are. This is not Fifty Shades

00:29:09.769 --> 00:29:13.430
of Grey. This is far better in all elements,

00:29:13.509 --> 00:29:16.289
including the sex. This is better written, better

00:29:16.289 --> 00:29:23.309
sex, yeah. Yeah, no, it continues to be a nice

00:29:23.309 --> 00:29:28.109
breath of fresh air that is romantic escapism.

00:29:28.609 --> 00:29:31.869
Romantic escapism, okay. Yeah, that's what I

00:29:31.869 --> 00:29:34.930
would call it. If you didn't like Bridgerton,

00:29:35.069 --> 00:29:37.390
I don't think you're going to like this. So take

00:29:37.390 --> 00:29:39.869
that if you will. But if you're open to a new

00:29:39.869 --> 00:29:41.789
experience, you don't really need to know anything

00:29:41.789 --> 00:29:44.069
about Bridgerton to enjoy Queen Charlotte. So

00:29:44.069 --> 00:29:48.849
this is something that sounds interesting. Also,

00:29:48.930 --> 00:29:53.730
the most badass opening, it starts, not really

00:29:53.730 --> 00:29:57.009
a spoiler, but Julie Andrews is the narrator

00:29:57.009 --> 00:30:02.380
for Lady Whistledown. this secretive person we

00:30:02.380 --> 00:30:05.680
don't really know the paper um so she starts

00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:08.380
with a brief uh voiceover that basically says

00:30:08.380 --> 00:30:10.460
that what you're about to see is fiction based

00:30:10.460 --> 00:30:15.099
on fact is like fiction based on things they

00:30:15.099 --> 00:30:17.640
don't necessarily say fact they very clever with

00:30:17.640 --> 00:30:21.400
trying to pick a side on that just enjoy this

00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:24.880
is basically this is stupid but here it is enjoy

00:30:24.880 --> 00:30:28.099
we're about to take you away on a like a romantic

00:30:28.099 --> 00:30:32.019
escapism as you said before Yeah, romantic escapism

00:30:32.019 --> 00:30:34.559
awaits. Get on board or get off. Yeah, right.

00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:39.099
I love that. I'm all for that, yeah. They knew

00:30:39.099 --> 00:30:40.839
people were going to come for it. That's Julie

00:30:40.839 --> 00:30:44.099
Andrews, too. The narrators in our things are

00:30:44.099 --> 00:30:47.039
pretty good. Julie Andrews, Brian Cox. We're

00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:50.079
getting some good narrators lately. Does Brian

00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:53.140
Cox narrate Quasi? He does, yes. Yeah, he is

00:30:53.140 --> 00:30:57.670
a narrator for the beginning and end. this is

00:30:57.670 --> 00:31:00.549
literally like a 10 minute job for him he had

00:31:00.549 --> 00:31:04.230
to go to a voice booth and go i'm brian cox like

00:31:04.230 --> 00:31:09.130
this is quasi okay 1600s quasimodo blah blah

sophie sophie cat made an appearance just over

00:31:13.769 --> 00:31:16.349
there okay i want to like mess around with the

00:31:16.349 --> 00:31:19.089
camera too much but uh she's just off camera

00:31:19.089 --> 00:31:23.650
nice i love it yeah surprisingly no animals have

00:31:23.650 --> 00:31:27.190
broken in on me today So it helps that. Oh, cause

00:31:27.190 --> 00:31:30.589
I didn't tell you. I didn't tell you. I've been

00:31:30.589 --> 00:31:32.789
playing a video game that Andre has been trying

00:31:32.789 --> 00:31:36.650
to get me to play. Video game. Yeah. Video game

00:31:36.650 --> 00:31:39.630
podcast. Now we are game for a movie. We can

00:31:39.630 --> 00:31:43.670
talk games. Love it. Andre has been trying to

00:31:43.670 --> 00:31:45.329
get me for a long time to play guardians of the

00:31:45.329 --> 00:31:48.579
galaxy. And it's not that I haven't. had any

00:31:48.579 --> 00:31:51.059
interest it's not that i was just like ah no

00:31:51.059 --> 00:31:54.279
i'm fine it is on playstation plus so i finally

00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:57.500
got it downloaded and i've played it uh probably

00:31:57.500 --> 00:32:00.140
four levels of it this far which is about two

00:32:00.140 --> 00:32:03.539
three hours or so yeah claire is now playing

00:32:03.539 --> 00:32:07.859
it too oh that's fun yeah so i'm guessing it's

00:32:07.859 --> 00:32:14.680
a hit it is a hit so she plays uh she um This

00:32:14.680 --> 00:32:17.200
is not about thoughts about the writer or anything

00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:20.039
like that. Death to the author. But we have both

00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:24.180
played Hogwarts Legacy. I have beaten the first

00:32:24.180 --> 00:32:29.559
go around. She has played Hogwarts Legacy. She

00:32:29.559 --> 00:32:32.440
has started at least four times. Oh, my God.

00:32:32.660 --> 00:32:34.660
I think you mentioned this before that she was

00:32:34.660 --> 00:32:37.220
really into it. Yeah. So she completed the game

00:32:37.220 --> 00:32:39.839
first as a Hufflepuff. She completed the game

00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:44.819
as a Ravenclaw. Yes. No. Gryffindor. She completed

00:32:44.819 --> 00:32:47.019
the game as Gryffindor. And then she wanted to

00:32:47.019 --> 00:32:49.700
see the common rooms of Ravenclaw and Slytherin.

00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:53.799
So she started the game two more times. Ravenclaw,

00:32:53.819 --> 00:32:55.819
she's a little more ahead. But she was like,

00:32:55.859 --> 00:32:57.480
I need a break. I need to do something different.

00:32:57.660 --> 00:33:00.539
So she started playing Guardians. And she basically

00:33:00.539 --> 00:33:05.619
has already caught up to me. Wow. Yeah. That's

00:33:05.619 --> 00:33:09.539
exciting. It's always fun when two people in

00:33:09.539 --> 00:33:12.799
a couple get into a game together. Like, I am

00:33:12.799 --> 00:33:14.359
absolutely loving this. We're playing at different

00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:16.500
times, but it's kind of fun to, like, talk about

00:33:16.500 --> 00:33:20.359
with each other, too. So she's a little behind

00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:23.640
me, but not quite so far behind. Right now, while

00:33:23.640 --> 00:33:25.640
we're recording, she's playing in the other room.

00:33:26.359 --> 00:33:28.500
Very nice. But it's just one of those things

00:33:28.500 --> 00:33:31.119
where it's like, okay, cool. Like, this is kind

00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:33.559
of fun to see that you're interested in playing

00:33:33.559 --> 00:33:35.259
that kind of stuff. And, like, it's characters

00:33:35.259 --> 00:33:39.720
we know and love. I'm a little upset about Star

00:33:39.720 --> 00:33:42.630
-Lord's voice. Oh, you don't like it? I don't

00:33:42.630 --> 00:33:46.089
like it. But the rest of the game has been a

00:33:46.089 --> 00:33:48.009
lot of fun. I like the gameplay. I like that

00:33:48.009 --> 00:33:53.289
it's challenging. Sophie Cat! Hi, Sophie. She's

00:33:53.289 --> 00:33:55.809
not a lab cat. Not a lab cat. Don't want, don't

00:33:55.809 --> 00:33:59.049
want, don't want. I've actually started, well,

00:33:59.150 --> 00:34:01.049
more than started now, I've been playing Hogwarts

00:34:01.049 --> 00:34:07.569
Legacy. Yeah. I'm enjoying it, but I've pierced

00:34:07.569 --> 00:34:12.050
through the veil of the game. And I see the matrix.

00:34:12.309 --> 00:34:13.989
I see what it wants me to do. I see the game

00:34:13.989 --> 00:34:17.010
loop. And I'm enjoying it. I don't know if I'm

00:34:17.010 --> 00:34:21.849
going to finish it. But I think it's very clever

00:34:21.849 --> 00:34:24.789
with how the magic system works in the game.

00:34:25.010 --> 00:34:28.210
Yeah, I'm with you on that. I think the characters

00:34:28.210 --> 00:34:31.550
are really all pretty well written. Yeah, for

00:34:31.550 --> 00:34:34.110
the most part. I'm with you on that. I have some

00:34:34.110 --> 00:34:37.449
characters. Yeah, I have some characters where

00:34:37.449 --> 00:34:40.989
I'm just like, yeah, fuck you. Whenever I find,

00:34:41.030 --> 00:34:43.610
like, a notebook, I don't even read it. No. Now

00:34:43.610 --> 00:34:46.210
that I know how to skip dialogue faster, I just

00:34:46.210 --> 00:34:50.409
read it in the move. Yeah, exactly. I love it.

00:34:51.289 --> 00:34:53.909
Yeah, I finished the main story as a Hufflepuff.

00:34:54.150 --> 00:34:56.090
And, like, now I'm just kind of like, all right,

00:34:56.110 --> 00:34:57.869
I'm going to 100 % this game because it feels

00:34:57.869 --> 00:35:01.050
like a game I can 100%. You know, like, I don't

00:35:01.050 --> 00:35:03.070
feel like it's too difficult that I'm sitting

00:35:03.070 --> 00:35:06.219
here going. well i don't know if i can 100 this

00:35:06.219 --> 00:35:08.400
game and i obviously i'm not gonna play it more

00:35:08.400 --> 00:35:10.179
than once on different difficulties but it's

00:35:10.179 --> 00:35:12.579
one of those games where i feel like okay normal

00:35:12.579 --> 00:35:16.119
playthrough i can get 100 of the stuff done that

00:35:16.119 --> 00:35:19.599
kind of thing um i switched to guardians and

00:35:19.599 --> 00:35:21.900
then i'm also playing again fractured but whole

00:35:21.900 --> 00:35:25.869
that's a fun one Oh my god, I love South Park

00:35:25.869 --> 00:35:27.670
games too much. I already played Stick of Truth.

00:35:27.809 --> 00:35:31.530
It was quick and easy and outdone. I should replay

00:35:31.530 --> 00:35:33.289
Stick of Truth. I think I like that one more

00:35:33.289 --> 00:35:35.429
than Fractured But Whole. I agree completely.

00:35:35.949 --> 00:35:38.070
Stick of Truth was definitely the better of those

00:35:38.070 --> 00:35:40.050
two. Fractured But Whole is fun because it's

00:35:40.050 --> 00:35:42.670
superheroes and stuff, but it's a lot more of

00:35:42.670 --> 00:35:46.769
like... okay go do this mission go do that mission

00:35:46.769 --> 00:35:48.530
go do this mission you know like you have to

00:35:48.530 --> 00:35:51.610
go to this to do that to do this to that and

00:35:51.610 --> 00:35:53.449
stick of truth was just kind of like a little

00:35:53.449 --> 00:35:56.849
more not exploratory but like it's a little more

00:35:56.849 --> 00:36:00.570
you get to discover on your own a little bit

00:36:00.570 --> 00:36:04.369
yeah there was less on rails guiding yeah exactly

00:36:04.369 --> 00:36:07.269
going back to hogwarts legacy i feel like i'm

00:36:07.269 --> 00:36:12.059
overpowered like i'm in level 20 High 20s. Yeah.

00:36:12.099 --> 00:36:13.639
And I'm getting quests where it's, like, recommended

00:36:13.639 --> 00:36:17.119
level, you know, level 11. Yeah. They scale,

00:36:17.500 --> 00:36:20.340
but I think they scale. Well, that's the funny

00:36:20.340 --> 00:36:22.219
thing about, like, Claire playing through this

00:36:22.219 --> 00:36:24.659
again. When she was Gryffindor for the second

00:36:24.659 --> 00:36:28.400
time, she got to level, like, 35 before she completed,

00:36:28.460 --> 00:36:30.699
like, the second story mission. You know, and

00:36:30.699 --> 00:36:33.780
it was just like, oh, cool. You're just going

00:36:33.780 --> 00:36:36.699
to destroy everybody. Good luck. I mean, it feels

00:36:36.699 --> 00:36:41.690
nice. Yeah. I'm in the second semester, I think.

00:36:41.710 --> 00:36:45.510
There was a seasonal change. And now I'm filling

00:36:45.510 --> 00:36:50.909
out the map room, if you will. I'm enjoying it.

00:36:51.289 --> 00:36:54.909
It's being games that me and Andre are playing

00:36:54.909 --> 00:36:57.949
the same game as your loved one. Andre and I

00:36:57.949 --> 00:37:00.070
are doing that with Tears of the Kingdom, the

00:37:00.070 --> 00:37:08.079
new Legend of Zelda game. Are you obsessed? Yes,

00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:10.699
in the way that I'm obsessed. I dream about it.

00:37:12.440 --> 00:37:16.320
Is that obsessed? Yeah, that's pretty obsessed.

00:37:16.420 --> 00:37:21.739
I was exploring through Hyrule. That's pretty

00:37:21.739 --> 00:37:26.079
obsessed, yes. Just a tad. Yeah, I didn't take

00:37:26.079 --> 00:37:29.239
a day off of work to play it, though. That to

00:37:29.239 --> 00:37:32.280
me is obsession. But I mean, like, all right.

00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:36.719
andre's really enjoying it yeah enjoying is underselling

00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:40.800
it he loves it yeah well that's yeah um there's

00:37:40.800 --> 00:37:43.519
so many link fanboys that are calling it like

00:37:43.519 --> 00:37:46.420
one of their best games of all time already it

00:37:46.420 --> 00:37:49.860
just came out yeah right well that's what i wanted

00:37:49.860 --> 00:37:53.280
to know where does andre on the link fanboy he's

00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:56.099
pretty high um i don't know if he's played every

00:37:56.099 --> 00:37:59.480
single zelda game that's ever zelded but he certainly

00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:01.860
has his favorites a couple uh one or two are

00:38:02.269 --> 00:38:06.650
I would say, or Deep Cut. One or two. They're

00:38:06.650 --> 00:38:10.630
known. Does he like Wind Waker? That's the important

00:38:10.630 --> 00:38:12.969
thing. I think he likes it. I love Wind Waker.

00:38:13.409 --> 00:38:19.050
I think Wind Waker is the good... If you know

00:38:19.050 --> 00:38:23.130
you're a true fan or just a casual fan, is if

00:38:23.130 --> 00:38:25.559
you like Wind Waker. I was actually saying, I

00:38:25.559 --> 00:38:26.980
don't know if you've followed any of the news,

00:38:27.059 --> 00:38:29.079
there was a discussion that the creators had

00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:30.599
that they already are thinking about the third

00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:33.900
one, or the next Zelda game. I won't call it

00:38:33.900 --> 00:38:37.599
the third. Yeah, this is going to sell out. This

00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:39.599
is going to do well. Which is good. I'd rather

00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:42.380
hear that they are thinking about it than, eh,

00:38:42.440 --> 00:38:45.679
we don't know. We'll see what this does. I would

00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:47.699
love if they took another stab kind of at the

00:38:47.699 --> 00:38:50.300
Great Sea, but it wouldn't obviously be the Great

00:38:50.300 --> 00:38:55.309
Sea again. play with that sailing mechanic once

00:38:55.309 --> 00:38:58.269
again with that exploration yeah i have to figure

00:38:58.269 --> 00:39:00.369
out some creative story for it but i think it's

00:39:00.369 --> 00:39:02.929
time i think it's time to and then i'm with you

00:39:02.929 --> 00:39:04.670
there's so much they could do with like underwater

00:39:04.670 --> 00:39:08.389
maybe yeah okay yep no i'm with you because well

00:39:08.389 --> 00:39:10.710
especially because the water temples as much

00:39:10.710 --> 00:39:13.110
as they're a pain in the ass they are usually

00:39:13.110 --> 00:39:17.690
the most talked about it's just what it is yeah

00:39:17.690 --> 00:39:22.489
i mean uh what was that that was ocarina You

00:39:22.489 --> 00:39:26.170
mean the one with Jabu Jabu? Maybe. I'm talking

00:39:26.170 --> 00:39:30.949
about the Water Temple. Like the most well -known.

00:39:31.070 --> 00:39:34.750
That one's Ocarina. I didn't know if it was Majora's

00:39:34.750 --> 00:39:38.489
or Ocarina. I knew it was the 64 one. I believe

00:39:38.489 --> 00:39:44.340
it's Ocarina. I've played parts of Ocarina. I

00:39:44.340 --> 00:39:46.820
haven't played it in full. The only two I've

00:39:46.820 --> 00:39:48.400
ever played in full, although I've watched Let's

00:39:48.400 --> 00:39:50.400
Plays of all of them, or at least all of the

00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:54.960
3D Zelda's, Wind Waker and Link's Awakening.

00:39:55.260 --> 00:39:57.219
Link's Awakening. And Breath of the Wild. I actually

00:39:57.219 --> 00:39:59.900
beat Breath of the Wild on Thursday. Oh my god.

00:40:00.019 --> 00:40:01.820
I could have beaten it two years ago, and I just

00:40:01.820 --> 00:40:04.219
never did. The funny thing is, I think the only

00:40:04.219 --> 00:40:07.000
one I've actually stuck through and beaten was

00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:10.309
Twilight Princess. I like Twilight Princess.

00:40:10.449 --> 00:40:12.610
I played a good chunk of that. Yeah, it was just

00:40:12.610 --> 00:40:14.389
more so that was the first one that I was fully

00:40:14.389 --> 00:40:19.929
invested in. Yeah. Yeah. All right. We didn't

00:40:19.929 --> 00:40:22.610
give ratings to everything, by the way. No. We

00:40:22.610 --> 00:40:25.110
need to give ratings. We did not. We'll backtrack.

00:40:25.309 --> 00:40:26.730
We'll backtrack. Do you want to go first or should

00:40:26.730 --> 00:40:31.070
I? Go ahead. At least one of them. Oh, I can

00:40:31.070 --> 00:40:34.050
do both. So for Queen Charlotte of Bridgerton's

00:40:34.050 --> 00:40:41.929
story, I give it... 3 .8 out of 5 oranges. Or

00:40:41.929 --> 00:40:48.030
mutated rabbits. That'll mean something if you've

00:40:48.030 --> 00:40:53.150
seen it. There's mutated rabbits? Now maybe the

00:40:53.150 --> 00:40:56.369
period drama might be in Mike's future. No, it's

00:40:56.369 --> 00:41:01.969
deformed rabbits. She gets a Pomeranian. the

00:41:01.969 --> 00:41:04.590
iconic royal dog yeah and she doesn't know what

00:41:04.590 --> 00:41:06.269
it is so she calls it like a deformed rabbit

00:41:06.269 --> 00:41:10.210
oh for a long time i've called it a mutated rabbit

00:41:10.210 --> 00:41:14.610
same idea lame all right fine i'm still out and

00:41:14.610 --> 00:41:18.429
then for night agent i would give that a solid

00:41:18.429 --> 00:41:22.650
3 .5 out of 5 phones okay phones are ringing

00:41:22.650 --> 00:41:26.570
phones are ringing phones are ringing yeah quasi

00:41:26.570 --> 00:41:31.900
is uh 2 .5 out of 5 oysters 2 .5 is low, man.

00:41:32.239 --> 00:41:35.019
Well, it's not, though. It's half. Out of five,

00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:38.420
true. Yeah, that's the thing. I feel bad because

00:41:38.420 --> 00:41:40.800
I say two, and I'm like, oh, wow, I'm really

00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:43.960
giving this a two. But 2 .5 out of five is really

00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:46.780
half of the scale. So if you double it, five

00:41:46.780 --> 00:41:50.420
out of ten. And so I'm giving it oysters because

00:41:50.420 --> 00:41:53.019
that's a big point of contention is oysters.

00:41:53.699 --> 00:41:56.219
Oysters, oysters. And there's a chant. Yeah,

00:41:56.280 --> 00:41:59.989
exactly. It's the stuff of kings. So, yeah, he

00:41:59.989 --> 00:42:01.929
has, like, an orgasmic experience when he has

00:42:01.929 --> 00:42:07.309
his first oyster. Yeah. Yeah. It's oysters. They're

00:42:07.309 --> 00:42:09.210
an aphrodisiac, don't you know? They've got the

00:42:09.210 --> 00:42:12.730
juice. They are an aphrodisiac. I also needed

00:42:12.730 --> 00:42:15.309
to point this out, so I know I'm going back on

00:42:15.309 --> 00:42:20.789
this. The queen of the kingdom is played by...

00:42:20.789 --> 00:42:24.130
In Quasi. In Quasi, is played by Adrienne Palicki.

00:42:24.230 --> 00:42:27.510
Padalecki. Padalecki, yep. I saw it on IMDb.

00:42:28.119 --> 00:42:30.760
And, you know, they kind of tease the will they,

00:42:30.820 --> 00:42:33.820
won't they? What do you think gets them over

00:42:33.820 --> 00:42:37.860
the hump, as they say, for why? Yeah, you're

00:42:37.860 --> 00:42:41.320
welcome. That was accidental. What do you think

00:42:41.320 --> 00:42:43.960
puts them over the hump for them actually doing

00:42:43.960 --> 00:42:48.480
the hump? Oysters. Nope. Not oysters. They find

00:42:48.480 --> 00:42:54.480
out they're cousins. Ugh. Yep. 1600s. That's

00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:58.760
what they did. incest what a time what a time

00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:04.019
it drew me insane when she goes wait what oh

00:43:04.019 --> 00:43:08.260
my god we're cousins oh come here like it's like

00:43:08.260 --> 00:43:12.639
over the top like oh yeah yep there you go you're

00:43:12.639 --> 00:43:15.599
welcome And on that note, I think we should close

00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:18.199
this episode. I think we should as well. This

00:43:18.199 --> 00:43:20.519
has gone off the rails. The minute incest is

00:43:20.519 --> 00:43:23.800
brought up, I'm out. Oh yeah, as soon as incest

00:43:23.800 --> 00:43:27.019
happens, we need to close the show. So that was

00:43:27.019 --> 00:43:30.820
us for a movie podcast. Hey, follow us on everything.

00:43:31.500 --> 00:43:34.079
Yeah, right. Follow us on everything. We talk

00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:40.539
about incest sometimes. No. No, no. I'm your

00:43:40.539 --> 00:43:44.179
host, Mike. I've been joined by... A reluctant

00:43:44.179 --> 00:43:48.320
Jill. We'll see you next time I came for a movie.

00:43:52.559 --> 00:43:53.860
Oh my God.
