Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm old cheaper movies. On Wednesdays, it was an itsy
bitsy teeny ween eat time for screenies, old Guy corn,
more Monkey Moth, Create is Twirling, Twirling, Twirling, and Mac
likes musicals. All that and more this week new stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Now it's time to explain the headlines. I said corn
because you know how when you're watching a TikTok video
and instead of saying the word porn, they're like porn, yeah,
and they put the little corn over their mouth.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Oh, so this is old guy porn we're talking about today. Yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I didn't want to like scare the audience off by
saying that early though it's gone. Also, you did a
really bad job singing itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka
dot bikini.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Oh, I was I. When you see it'sy bitsy, you
think the spider.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Oooh there we go head over to axe right now,
or I'm remembering this off the bat. Here we're on YouTube,
going to the comment second it's he bitsy spider, it's
he bitsy teeny winenny yellow poka doppikini.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I saw it'sy bitchy and we lead it immediately went
into the spider melody. I didn't think about the polka
dot melody, and that was the miscommunication there. I think
I made it work, though, I think I pulled it off.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Happy Birthday, old bitch yep, thirty six years young, a
spry thirty six years old.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I'll tell you thirty five. You're like smack dab in
between thirty and forty, right, So it's old. But ye
year old, thirty.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Four not a girl, not yet a woman.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Oh I need is time a moment that is much.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
She has the lowest genes in the world in that
video tho.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
STIPs don't lie. Thirty three was the first age I
started feeling an old dish at thirty six year old.
No escaping it, you're just old thirty six.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I went so long with not remembering my age and
just being like, I don't know, I'm somewhere in the
thirties until my wife made me remember.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Yeah, well, we're one year off from being able to
do a really easy math. We're eighty nine. If you
were ninety, the math on your age would be easy.
All the time.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
That's what I tell people, and they're like, you're.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Stupid, just do ninety plus one.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I guess and that's what everyone says to me. But
my wife was getting sick of me asking her how
old am I? And she's like, learn, learn how old
you are and keep it in your mind and stop
asking me.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
But we are in the range. And I also think
post thirty is where that begins. Once you get thirty,
it doesn't matter anymore. We are you thirty one to
thirty five.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Post thirty under forty, that's what it is. Yeah, yeah,
it was dope. Speaking of matt life, Happy Mother's Day, Mac.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Yes, yeah, Happy Mother's Day to your wife and all
the wives and moms out there. Yeah, classic my family fashion.
We couldn't come up with a definitive plan until Sunday
morning and then everything was booked. So now we're doing
Mother's Day dinner on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
That's not bad, though. We did Mother's Day on Saturday.
We did a full day of Mother's Day stuff on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Yeah. Well, my sister's birthday is also two days before
mine May tenth, so we did a little thing for
her birthday over the weekend, and then of course my
mom was there. So it's kind of it gets all
three my Irish twins, you know. Yeah, No, four years apart.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Same thing, right, awesome. I'm pretty sure that Irish twins
are You're just born in the same year, right, correct.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah, the Irish Catholics fucked didn't believe in condoms. There
for lots of sex, lots of babies.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I mean, I'm not Irish Catholic, but condoms toss them
out the window.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Well, I don't think either of us are particularly religious.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Now now, zap no who is religious? Nicole Kidman about
AMC Theaters and AMC will be slashing prices on Wednesday Wednesdays,
actually not just one Wednesday, but all the Wednesdays in
July by fifty percent.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Uh, the kidding bounced down to AMC? Or does AMC
bow down to Nicle Kidman? It's like THEO It's like
the Holy Trinity sort of thing. What's the third part
of the Trinity?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Tom Cruise? No, it's Tom Cruise and they're separated, they're divorced,
But like, those two are the most pro theater people
in the world. And she also does these what feel
like hour long fucking things at AMC Theater.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
You know, I completely forgot that those two were a
thing because she's been married to Keith Urban for so long,
and of course he was with Katie Holmes, but I
forgot that was a thing.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And also it's because she's so tall. She's quite tall,
and he is a little rugrat.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So the google it it says that he's like five
to nine. I want to say that's five seven.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
So the whole trinity of movies is AMC Theaters, Nicole
Kidman and Tom Cruise.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
And never forget this, the triangle is the strongest shape.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Is That's right? Uh, AMC. I'm happy to see you
doing initiatives like this. A lot of theaters around here
will do Tuesdays six dollars Tuesdays or whatever. It's those
Tuesday Wednesdays, you know, middle part of the weeks where
they're not getting a lot of foot traffic in there,
and this is a great way to get people in there.
So I'm all for it.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I forget which theater talked about it, but it should
be surge pricing. It should be based on the day Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday should be lower pricing.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
No, I hate that because eventually it would even out.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Well, I'm not saying to raise the price on Saturdays
and Sundays. I'm just saying lower the prices on Monday Wednesday.
Monday through Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Good. There's a lot of places do that in general,
but it's usually just one day.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
But then yeah, on Saturday night, make the prices one
hundred dollars at seas I.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Think sixty eight dollars to Sea Avengers.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yes, surge. Price the shit out of this. I love
going in a parking on the street for the same
price that I could park in a parking garage.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You know where I'm at now, and I already talk
to you about the luxury theaters. You know, specifically the
Chestnunt Hill Theater. I get the super lux appeal. You
can order food to your seats. I get all that
stuff for me. I don't want to be fucking chowing
on wings while watching a movie. The second part to that,
and this is just all theaters with all as sign seating,
which I'm four love that. It makes me decide which
(06:03):
time I'm gonna go see the movie based on where
I can get a seat. If you show up to
an assigned seat theater and just sit wherever you want
and wait until people file in to move to your seats,
I want to fucking kill you. I hate you.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I hate walking into a theater and having to speak
to anybody, let alone say to them, oh your seat.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Yeah, like we're at a ball game and the usher
is gonna be like, oh, let me see your then.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Also, what's so annoying is that they'll look around and
be like, why don't you sit somewhere else? No, no, no, no, no,
I picked this seat.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yes, I got online before you did. You fucking dragged
your feet. You go sit on the edge, you motherfucker.
I'm in the middle.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Also, it's kind of annoying, but it's also really funny
when people pick seats right next to you when there's
so many more open seats.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Well. Now, the pro move is, especially when you're going solo,
as you pick two over from like people that are sitting,
so that leaves an empty seat in between you, and
then hypothetically, no one's gonna pick the seat right next
to a solo so to see on either side of you.
That's that's the real hack right there.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, it's like picking a urinal exactly.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
It's if we if theater seats operated on urinal principles,
we'd be in a much better place.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Niz dam Weekend Box Office Thunderbolts comes in number one
once again, but did have a bit of a drop
off fifty five percent down to thirty three million. Didn't
quite get that New Avengers crowd. I would assume that
they're just gonna change the name when you look on fandango,
(07:32):
when you look online, they're gonna start calling it New Avengers.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah, it'll still be called Thunderbolts.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I'm not sure if it will because so the posters
are different now. I think they're gonna change it online
now too.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
For sure, but it's still gonna be called Thunderbolts. I'm
guessing it's a good movie if you haven't seen it,
I do think it's worth seeing in the theaters. However, whatever,
if you don't want to, that's fine. You're not You're
not really missing out.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
That's our motto of this podcast. Fine, we don't care.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
We're not quite a cole Kidman and Tom Cruise. We
just highly suggest you see it.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Oooh out of this uh partnership here. Who is the Cruise?
Who is the Kidman?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
I am taller than you, so I might take Kidman.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I mean that's not true, but I don't think either
of us are real. If anyone were to jump on
a couch, it would be you.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I'd jump on a couch. I would jump out of
a plane. I used to like playing jackass with my friends.
Did you ever play jackass with your friends?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah? Of course I grew up in a porner.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, but what kind of stunts would you do? I
would do really risky stunts.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I mean everyone tried the shopping cart one, and that
one is terrifying. It's a great idea until you're within
like eight feet of the object you're smashing into and
you're like, this is a.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Mistake when you see that curve. But does this time
just freezes.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
When you try to picture how you're gonna launch out,
You're like, ah No.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
For those of you who are familiar with the uh,
it's no longer the Arsenal Mall, it's the Arsenal Yard.
Outside of the home depot. There used to be a
Bugaboo creek right there, and we used to frequently go
to the Bugaboo Creek and that's where you would play
jackass and get in the shopping comtry.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Oh yeah, they had a really really nice parking garage
conducive to smashing into things because there was eight thousand
poles in there, so that was pretty.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Great, right, and not a lot of cars. We weren't
there to damage cars.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Yeah, and on the second floor. Good. I don't know
if you knew this, but you're probably being watched by
the FBI, which had an office on the second floor
of that structure.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Right, But they all found it funny because we're doing
jackass sure, yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
No, FBI don't care about that. You'd get local police
mad about being jackasses, but the FBI for sure laughing
at it.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Off the back of thunderbolts. Let's see here. The official
Avengers social media has added a copyright symbol to it.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I don't really understand that. I don't give it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
It's a joke because remember in the movie, Sam Wilson.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Now I get it, see explain.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I don't want to get too deep into it. I
don't want to spoil nothing. But it's a pretty stelly joke, right,
pretty good. Also, director Jake Schreier is in talks to
direct the X Men movie.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Strong first effort from Jake. I'm in on that. I'm
in on it. Yes, give him, give him anything he needs.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Also at the box office, Sinners drops thirty six percent
in week four to twenty one million. That's standing strong,
doing a real good job. Yeah, two eighty three worldwide.
Minecraft now at nine hundred and ten million dollars worldwide.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
It's the holy Trinity of movies. It's Tom Cruise, Nicole Kimmen,
and Minecraft.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
My eight year old niece and five year old nephew
really want to see the movie.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
They haven't seen it yet.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
They have not seen it.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh my god. I took my kid a week before
it came out because I'm a good dad. And then
accounting two.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I am somewhat looking forward to seeing that, but certainly
not gonna pay money for it.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
No, no, that's not a movie. But that also does
look it looks silly.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
It does look silly, and we love John Burnhal and
Ben Afflick.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
But all of these movies will not be dethroned this
next coming week. But that doesn't matter because money's not everything.
News Dump. The most important thing in life is friendship,
and this weekend you finally get it.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
For years, for what what do we now? In our
ninth year it was a podcast. We've been trying to
bring you friendship, and finally this week we can bring
you officially Friendship. Friendship being spearheaded by Tim Robinson Paul
rud In A twenty four. Is that the real holy
trinity of movies?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
That is, that's the holy Trinity of theaters?
Speaker 1 (11:25):
So two screens this week for Friendship. I unfortunately couldn't
make the one last. I have seen it. I purposely
didn't ask many questions about it. Okay, I am seeing
it tomorrow. I will ask you one question. M hm,
where you disappointed?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
No, I loved it.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I didn't ask. I didn't ask you to say he
loved it.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Oh sorry, I can't stop thinking about it. As a
matter of fact.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
All right, well I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
So I went and I saw it with our buddy
Billy d. He does the graphics on this show and
the big takeaway. He said to me, I need to
see it again, which I do agree. I need to
see it in like any good comedy, you want to
find those secondary jokes. But in the twelve hours since
seeing it, I'm just seen by scene more and more
(12:05):
things are coming back to me and like the smaller
jokes are hitting or so obviously with a sketch show,
you can't let things linger too long. In a one
hundred minute movie, you can take your time and really
make the audience uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Well, and to just double down on sort of that
statement or in a dundum a kickflip of christ air,
you know, part of the magic of Tim Robinson comedy.
And I think you should leave specifically over more say
the Detroiters is the rewatches, you find other things funnier
and funnier, and things on the third or fourth rewatching
(12:43):
you didn't laugh at the first time now'll become funny.
So I wonder if this movie will have a similar experience.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Should I give a quick reviewer?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
No, no, no, I don't because I don't want to
personally hear about it.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Take your headphones off, okay.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I'll give you fifteen seconds, okay.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
And this is what I sent to the movie theater
p Well, I said, I loved it. It was my
exact style, equal parts classic comedy, awkward humor and jokes
that only Robinson can pull off.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
We're back, nice Jobo.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Also coming up in theaters in the next month or so.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Well, this is I got a bit of a gripe,
you know, as as fucking artists, now that we review
movies here goo.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Don't you hold up? Hold up, hold up? No, think
of a different word.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Where are teasts?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
We do not make sam screenings go over This week
they had three screenings in the same theater.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
At the same time last night. I couldn't go to
any of the three, so number one annoyed about that.
But number two they made you pick last night. Luckily
two of those three movies are second screenings, for so
hypothetically you could have gotten.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Off even if there was no second screening. This was
an easy change, I know for.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
You, and I yes, but you know you put this
Friendship screen the same night as the Mission Impossible screening,
and the secondary screen of both of those also the
same night.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Also seeing it, and not to keep on bragging about screenings,
but seeing it in a theater with people that you
can tell they have been seeking this movie and waiting
for this movie. You were watching it with Tim Robinson fans,
and it was amazing. So many Dan Flash's shirts, so
many people yelling at the screen during the trailers, in
(14:16):
the previews. It was amazing.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
So I'll have a bit of a different experience because
mine's gonna be without the pleeps, just the reviewers only.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
So most people going uh. He was kind of annoying.
He was kind of awkward. I didn't like when he
did this. How about this?
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Shut up? The other one was Final Destination Bloodlines, which
I don't think I'll be seeing in theaters, but I
will see it at some point and on the horizon
Goo again, Mission Impossible. In a couple of weeks. We
also will have Ballerina coming up, and we also got
How to Train Your Dragon, which I don't know if
I'm gonna catch that one either, but that one's gonna
be very popular.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I need to wait until I can bring my kid.
I'm not gonna see it by myself. It was dup
the trailer for F one, and this trailer really points
to me that it's gonna be not a step by
step like following in the footsteps of Top Gun Maverick,
(15:09):
which was I'm an old guy and I'm gonna show
you young kids how to race cars. But this trailer
really does show hey, the old guy's still cool.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Just definitely different than Top Gun Maverick.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Brad Pitt is the old guy. He's already he's a
retired race car driver that's coming back, and the young
guys are like, I'm surprised. They're doing a senior circuit
and you know that Brad Pitt's gonna win it and
do some cool tricks, and all the kids are like, damn,
old man, you still got it. It's it's it's old
man porn.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
This is yeah, for your one hundreds, right about that.
But this, in in essence is the difference between Tom
Cruise and Brad Pitt. Right, It's incredibly hard to really
believe Brad Pitt as an underdog because he's so strapping
and not short. Tom Cruise easy to believe as an underdog.
You know, I mean, like and Top Gun Maverick.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
If Brad Pitt, No, but Top Gun Maverick from the
get go, that opening scene with him on the motorcycle,
You're like, all right, he's gonna show these kids a
fucking thing or two.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Yeah, but if it was Brad Pitt, there would be
no doubt that he's gonna show these No.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Look, we know that these kids are gonna be taught
a thing or two and he's gonna change some diapers
on the screen.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
A thing or two will be shown.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
No, due, here's Deppe been a trailer for Peacemaker.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Yeah, I'm honestly really not looking forward to this, and
I thought to say that I don't think it's gonna
be good. I just have a hard time, Like, I
don't know, it's not something I'm I'm striving for. At
the moment, it looks decent, it'll be funny because James
Gun's helming it, of course, but I can't pretend I'm
like really.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Looking forward and the first season is decent too.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, I'm just not really looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
There's depp another trailer for Ballerina, and I will say,
as someone who is a fan of the John Wick series,
I'm a fan of the actress that is playing the
ballerina Lamassin. I'm a little concerned about this movie. It
does sound like there was a lot of reshoots and
there's a lot of shoehorning John Wick in there. And
(17:10):
I also I was thinking of John Horn. Who's John Horn?
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I don't know. I think I know Joe Horn.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
I was thinking of Joe Horn and then Jason Cehorn, right,
But I don't like the timeline of this movie, and
when it's coming out, I wanted it to be separate
from the John Wick stuff and off on its own.
I don't want it to be John Wick three point five.
I don't like the fact that it's taking place almost
at the same time as the worst of the John
(17:39):
Wick movies.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yeah, so I agree with you, and I think the
original idea and the filmmaker's idea was to do that separate,
just have it operate in that universe. And I think
the studio stepped in and was like, we're afraid no
one's gonna see it without John Wicks.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
We're gonna retitle this some bitch, It's gonna be a
John Wick story. Colon Ballerina Dash John Wick is here.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah, it strikes me at least what I'm gathering from
the trailer is it'll be two thirds Ballerina and then
John Wick is going to like play a major role
in the third act.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah that's pretty good, right.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Yeah, Yeah, God is good. Yeah yeah, with a lot
of God talk with the Holy Trinity today.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I also thought for a second that, what's your John
Wick impression?
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You're Yeah, it made me think of that though.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
News Depe what a little tease a little image A
release date of March twenty seven, twenty twenty seven, for
Godzilla Times Kong Colon super Nova.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Hear me out. I'm out. I'm out on the Godzilla
cong stuff.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Oh, I am too. I I didn't care for the
last one. I was extremely bored. I don't care about
the giant fighting uh monsters anymore. Also, I forgot to
put the headline in there because I was in such
a rush I wanted to write more monkey math. So
I feel like we lost people at the beginning for.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Not having that good happening joke. For sure.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I really did not like the last one. The one
prior to that I thought was fine. Exactly. I don't
care about these, but if it's going to bring you back.
Godzilla apparently has green breath in this one, which means thinky,
does that.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Mean he's gonna be like Godzilla two thousand, where everything
was like black and green? You know, remember everything was
black and green. Right around to that, the whole xbox
appalized on the black and.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
I was about to start singing a canceled song general Apologize,
I apologize, well, no, I almost sang the opening song
from the CD with Jimmy Page and the fellow that
could no longer be named oil Boy.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Here here's a challenge for you and all the folks
out there, tell someone to suck it today the little
d X sucket. Just see what happens.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
You got to do the hand mode.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
No, don't just say it, it's it's the whole thing.
Do the sucket motion and let me know it goes.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
What do you think is a better way to tell
someone off? The finger? But you gotta do like the
M and M finger with like the like the two.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Stay up.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I don't want to do it on the screen because
we might get flagged on YouTube and then we're not
gonna TV. I'm not sure, but I'm also going to
ask that or telling someone to suck it with the cross.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
If you really get the hips into it, I think
I think the suck it's much a much bigger insult.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
There was nothing better. First off, I wish that we
did suck it more. But also in high school, we
graduated in the year twenty oh seven. That and actually
you weren't on the baseball team at the time. This
was senior year. You had already dropped out of school
to help your family make money at the steel mill.
But we used to as a rule, if someone was
(20:42):
able to fake kick you in the chest, you had
to sell it and then you would receive the biggest
stunner of all.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
To kick to groggy, you had to be groggy.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Yep, you'd have to.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Person hits l one for the finisher, see you.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
That was the best power of playing baseball in two
thousand and seven. Of course there was in the hall ways.
If someone was walking by you, you were able to
step in front. You had you had to set your
feet though. Sure, yeah, you could take a offensive fouel.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah. I also was a big fan of and we've
talked about this before. For a short time there we
were Hodo getting people in the hallway. Oh that was
good to particularly underclassmen that would be terrified by a classman.
It was ge Is that bullying? Just scaring younger kids
in the hallway? Is that considered bullying?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
It's great, and it's also bullying. I don't think you
can do anything anymore.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
I remember hit some poor soul. She was this tidy
little girl with a hotdogan, and I scared the fu.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
So it wasn't us, but the upper classmen that would
kind of tour no like there was absolutely a chance
that they would punch you in the face. There was
someone who's not for given people. Scottie Pippins where they
would shove your nose into your skull. But they used
to just walk out to us and just skull like this,
and like you knew there was a chance they were
(21:58):
gonna fucking punch you in the face.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Yeah, we were much nicer than that. That group of
misfits a couple of years older than us.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
None of them actually punched us in the face. It
was just the threat of punch enough.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
They had a couple wild cards that it was enough
to make you think they'd all.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
It wasn't enough wild cards. They were all wild cards.
It was a group of all wild cards. There was
no leader of the bunch. There was no face sure,
there was no random woman, there was no money.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Mag nine wild cards.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
It was all wild cards. Anything could happen at any time.
What are we talking about. We're on Spider Man Noir.
We got a teaser we got this is the series
starring Nicholas Cage. The series will be released in both
black and white and color. I don't like that pick one.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Yep, so live Action Spider Noir. I gotta say the
quick teaser we got looks pretty good in black and white.
I think I'll stick to black and white.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
It's shot to be in black and white, and yes, okay,
Logan looks good in color, but it was shot to
be in black and white. It looks better in black
and white.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
And there's also there's a difference than like the Logan
black and white then like the noir since City, feel
that this is going to be going forward too, because
the color is certainly going to be different. But now
I don't think about it'd be really funny to watch
it in color and just have like some random Papa
color there that makes no sense. But in black and
white it works.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
That comes out In twenty twenty six, News Dope Matthew
Lillard has confirmed that he has been cast and Daredevil
Born Again season two. It is a small role right now,
but hopefully people like it and they bring me back
in some capacity.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
I don't know enough about comic books to hypothesize what
character he could be playing, but if you have an
idea and you're listening right now, please let us know,
because I'd like to do a little googs on it.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I would say I would like him to play Stu
from screen, right.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
No, I know you would like him to play that.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Yeah, that'd be great.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, And then Liver Alone and then the Scream universes
in the MCU.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
But also I think he is playing Stu again in
the next Scream.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Yeah, but he's probably gonna be playing ghost stew Is.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
My guess, what are we doing with all these ghosts
they do? Let's Oh, actually I did see a trailer
for the I Know What You Did Last Summer at
the movies last night, and it's the one that we've
seen on social media. But I would have loved to
have seen that trailer not on social media but with
(24:21):
a crowd for the first time. And like, you know,
get see the pop that like Freddie Prince gets Jennifer
Love Hewett no when he steps up in that town
hall meeting and he's like, we need to stop the violence.
Fucking Freddy Prince, let's go.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
No. I love I love the pop and they do
it every time they bring a character back. You see
you're looking from the back, right, Jennifer Love Hugh. It's
just walking, walking, walk, It stops. Turns fucking best absolute best.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Do we need to And I think this is what
I Know What You Did last summer is trying to do.
They're trying to stay relevant, just long enough to get
the Scream crossover. At that point when they do crossover,
can Jennifer I Love hewittt speak to the.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Ghosts Oh, I don't even don't even get me going
on Ghost Whisper. Yeah, come on, Ghost Whisper went on
for like nine seasons just because of the outfits. Jennifer
Love Hewart Warren Basic Cable or is that CBS not
even been at CBS show? I don't even know.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
I've only seen it on packs what a show news dope,
but our first look at the new office. That is
the series that has actually to be titled The Paper
because they're working at a newspaper. The series follows dunder
Mifflin Documentary Crew the dunder Mifflin Documentary crew as they
follow or focus on a dying historic Midwestern newspaper and
(25:41):
its volunteer reporters. This is being released in September on Peacock.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I'm gonna watch it with very very low expectations. I'll
probably like it, but I'm glad it's going to the Cock.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
What they need to do is don't make the documentary
series a part of the cast and crew. I don't
want to know that they are real people, just give
me the people that work at the newspaper.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Well, that's gonna be hot. Kind of hard to do
since maybe the selling point is, hey, these were the
guys that did it on the Dunder movie.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I don't Yeah, but season nine of The Office is garbage,
and that's what a lot of that he's saying.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
They're gonna copy season nine.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
But you know, if you are letting those documentary people
be a part of the series like they did in
season nine of the Office, that is dumb.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
They're not gonna be a part of the series. I
don't think they're just gonna be filming it the same
way they did for The Office.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
You know, who should be the only crossover character, the
only conduit from the Office to the paper, Clark Duke.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
I mean we I think we're pretty sure. I feel
like I heard both bj Novak and Mindy Kayling are
loosely connected to this, So I wouldn't be surprised if
you see either of their two characters Ryan And what
was Mindy Kaling's character?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
I'm blank?
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Yeah, why do we not know her name?
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I am Blankelly Kelly.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I wouldn't be surprised if we see those two characters
Pop up at some point. I can almost guarantee Toby's
going to be involved somehow. Outside of that, I don't
know what we're gonna get.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I mean, I think as a nation we are ready
for the Clark Duke assance. He's not PLoP.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
The other guy is right, Pete's PLoP. You're right, Yeah,
there's dope.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I like how we forgot who Kelly was, but we
know who Clark Duke is. We know who PLoP is.
We're getting a creed not from the office, but from
the movies, the Rocky Movies spinoff series. It is officially happening.
It is titled Delphi and is set at the gym.
(27:39):
Did I get that right? Delphi Delphi? Are you sure sure?
I'm not seeing any line over the eye that would
that would indicate that it is pronounced that way. I
don't know if it is. We're gonna have to figure
this out later. I suppose it is set at the
gym featured in the films that follows young boxers who
train at the gym. And here is the issue that
I have is my Michael B. Jordan is an executive producer,
(28:02):
meaning that he's probably not tied into this beyond him
getting money for the character.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
I just don't think we need this. I'm not interested
at all in any characters that aren't Creed.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
You know you say that, but you weren't interested in
a Creed movie after the Rocky series. Maybe this is
something new, maybe it's fresh.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
I mean, I don't need this. I won't be watching this.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I mean neither am I. I did not like that
third Creed movie. And I'm a big fan of the
first Creed movie, second Creed movie. The half that is
Creed is good. The half that is Rocky four point
five not good.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I still haven't seen Creed two. Creed three was definitely underwhelming.
I'll give you.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
That, maybe the most predictable movie I've ever seen, and
like that's it's a Rocky movie. They like predictable.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Michael b because he directed that, almost said it as much,
because he like he's a big fan of anime and
really copied like the classic anime stories, which is like
classic you know, underdog stories, and you just knew exactly
how that was going to turn out.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Huge news for Mac, a big fan of early aughts
reality television and game shows. Fox is bringing back fear
factor and you at the weakest link bye bye.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
So I never really cared for the weakest link other
than when they were getting eliminated. That was great, awesome,
fucking tidbit. Fear Factor is a great early two thousands
you know reality show. I don't know how good it'll
be now, but that was a great time and place
type of thing. Forcing people to do anything in order
(29:39):
to win money is always pretty good.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
It's the implications, is what mac is saying.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I think the single word. So I always Fear Factor
was always set up three challenges, and by the end
there you know people teams get eliminated along the way.
The first and the third one were more physical or manual.
The second one was always the middle one. Sandwichman was
always the eating one. And the eating ones is really
what get me. You could I could convince myself to
(30:06):
do anything, push my limits anything. On the first and
third one. I particularly remember the worst one for me.
I don't remember where they were specifically, but the setting
is a casino and they have like a craps table,
and on the craps table there's these like African cave spiders.
Do yourself a favor and look this up on YouTube.
These people have to eat these African cave spiders that
(30:27):
look like crabs but they're spiders. They're like, they look
thick like that, and they're live and they gotta pick
them up and eat them. I never, ever, in a
million years, would have done that, never, not even I
would rather I would rather get shot with an actual
bullet through the arm or something than eat an African
cave spider.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I was gonna ask you, who do you think winsphear
factor between you and I?
Speaker 1 (30:48):
But it comes out any time. Yeah, can you do
eating stuff?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Now?
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Yeah, we'd both lose in the second round every time.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
I can't even eat uh what is it called, uh,
steak tartar, beef tartar.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
That's a tough one. Yeah, I don't know which is.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
It's just raw beef.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
I know it's it's hard to pyke yourself up for that.
That type of shit. Like fish is fine. You can
do fish like savice that sort of stuff. But yeah,
beef tartar is a tough cell beef tartar.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
And people are like, oh, it's a delicacy. No, it
is raw, and then you have raw egg with capers.
It is not for me. I agree, So newsz app
tough News, But prior to the tough News, they had
ran or Run an add it was a little crossover
between Superman and Jason Tatum where Tatum was Superman. Is
(31:36):
when the Celtics were down to nothing, they did come
out and win Game three and things have gone downhill
since then. But Mac the reason why I bring this up,
it reminded me of the fact that Shaquille O'Neil took
over the mantle as Superman or of Superman in the nineties. Yeah,
which then got me to thinking, I don't think Superman
(31:57):
or I don't think Shaquille O'Neil, you would pull off
the dual role of Superman and Clark Kent. Because even
if you put a pair of glasses on him, you say,
I think that seven foot three black man is both
the Superman and Clark Kent.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Yeah, that's a tough one. That's a tough one, and
honestly it shouldn't come into consideration. But you know, we
discussed this briefly when we discuss Idris Elba as James Bond.
It does matter when you're trying to have a secret
identity that there's just less black people on the planet.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
So it's talking more about the size and that Shack
is a one of one when it.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Comes to understands that there's only so many seven foot
people on the planet and then there's only some seven
foot black man on the planet. I'm just talking about.
It narrows down the odds mathematically. So it's not great.
It's not great, that's for sure. I do like that
Shaq mostly did it though, because the s and he
stole the Superman symbol. When Dwight Howard tried to do it,
We're like, what are we doing here? Dude?
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Fuck you hr I'm how to work with the papa?
Are you Superman? What are you talking about? Also, now
it looks like you just have glasses on.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
What are you doing now that we're on the topic
of sports. Uh Number one incredible NBA lotteries one hundred
percent rate. Unbelievable that Oh my god. Yes, flag number two.
The Tatum injury is really tough because Achilles is baseline
like nine to ten months, more likely a year. So
Kevin Durant had this happen like five or six years ago,
he missed the whole season. Celtics are gonna get old quick,
(33:25):
Horford Drew. They're old. It's gonna be a really interesting
upcoming season. And how fitting is it that the injury
comes because Jalen Brown turned the ball over while dribbling.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
I wouldn't put all the blame on that though.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
How fitting I said, I didn't put the blame on him.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
I didn't. I'm not putting the blame on that. That
is it's a non contact people get hurt.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, yeah, get on contact because he was diving for
a loose ball after Jalen Brown dribbled it off of himself.
I will say explosiveness clearly matters in pro sports and
in basketball. Jason Tatum is a good enough player that
he doesn't need to be as explosive as he was
right now to be an All NBA type of player.
But that is a tough one. Man. Achilles is fucking
(34:02):
You would much rather tayor acl these days, and Terror Achilles.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
This has nothing to do with the podcast. We're hitting
sports right now. We're forty minutes and we can do
whatever we want. We're in safe water right now. The
best standing dunker of all time, I'm Mari Stodomayer.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Maris Sttenmeyer's great he had I think they were Adidas shoes.
I want to say, and like two thousand and two
he came out with the stats stat standing tall on talented.
That was his nickname. It'd have been O three great
fucking shoes. One of my favorite pairs of basketball shoes.
No one had them. They had them at foot locker.
I had a pair of those, had a pair of
the T Max as well. Those are my two favorite
(34:37):
players in the early two thousands, T Mac and Marius Stottenmeyer.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
News dump GTA six trailer.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Who I'm one of the few people on this planet
that have never played GTA five. I loved pretty much
every GTA game going up to GTA five. I just like,
I know, it's not my style of gaming anymore. I
certainly get the appeal. I probably will play GTA six,
just not like over the moon about this. I mean
at some point, and I've seen some really funny TikTok
videos like GTA is just becoming a real life sim
(35:07):
and that has mass appeal, but I don't that's not
what I want.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
More like gt and A.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
It does look like they're working like a nice love
story into this one. For the first time. There's a
there's a mod on online GTA where people play as
police and pull people over.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Oh, news dope, huge news for Mac. Just ahead of
the release of Clicked for Good, NBC will be doing
a live television musical special featuring Wicked stars Cynthia Rivo
and Ariana Grande that will air. Like I said on
(35:44):
NBC in November.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
How did you turn to Revo into the Italian one?
By the pronunciations there.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
Dadie Evo?
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Uh yeah, this will be fine.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
I don't know, this will be fine, Mac. You were
so pants ten City about Wicked for like two months.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
I don't need to do a live musical TV special.
I'll just rewatch the movie.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
You love music.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
I do like if you're telling me these two were
starring in Grease too, the live action musical.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Maybe Oh, and they both play Michelle Fiver life.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Is I don't know. I mean, this will be fine whatever.
I don't care about.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
This news dope, last of us. I still haven't seen it.
But macas Yeah, we got.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Two episodes left in the season five in through season
two episodes three and four. We're a little bit low
action wise, but we're necessary to build, you know, some
stories and relationships between our A couple of main characters.
Number one Dina is the best character on the show
right now, like by far. Number two. The most recent
(36:47):
episode was great and action packed and had a really
fucking satisfying moment and visually was really fucking cool for
a couple of scenes. Does look like we're gonna have
that classic like flashback free finale episode for episode six,
but you will need it to do, I think, to
flesh out some Joel and Ellie things. I think this
(37:09):
season has been a little up and down, but it's
also like really necessary to get from point A to
point B, which is season one and season three, and
it's a classic sandwich thing. You know. The middle parts
of television series maybe aren't always the best, but I
just I'm excited for good to watch what episode you
You didn't you haven't watched any right, Yeah, so I'm
(37:31):
excited for you to get to episode two, which is
an incredible episode of television. And then this most recent
one was also really great. So I'm looking forward to
the finale.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
The checks out at the end of the week, we'll
be talking about Friendship, New's Dope
I'm old cheaper movies. On Wednesdays, it was an itsy
bitsy teeny ween eat time for screenies, old Guy corn,
more Monkey Moth, Create is Twirling, Twirling, Twirling, and Mac
likes musicals. All that and more this week new stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Now it's time to explain the headlines. I said corn
because you know how when you're watching a TikTok video
and instead of saying the word porn, they're like porn, yeah,
and they put the little corn over their mouth.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Oh, so this is old guy porn we're talking about today. Yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I didn't want to like scare the audience off by
saying that early though it's gone. Also, you did a
really bad job singing itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka
dot bikini.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Oh, I was I. When you see it'sy bitsy, you
think the spider.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Oooh there we go head over to axe right now,
or I'm remembering this off the bat. Here we're on YouTube,
going to the comment second it's he bitsy spider, it's
he bitsy teeny winenny yellow poka doppikini.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I saw it'sy bitchy and we lead it immediately went
into the spider melody. I didn't think about the polka
dot melody, and that was the miscommunication there. I think
I made it work, though, I think I pulled it off.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Happy Birthday, old bitch yep, thirty six years young, a
spry thirty six years old.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I'll tell you thirty five. You're like smack dab in
between thirty and forty, right, So it's old. But ye
year old, thirty.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Four not a girl, not yet a woman.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Oh I need is time a moment that is much.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
She has the lowest genes in the world in that
video tho.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
STIPs don't lie. Thirty three was the first age I
started feeling an old dish at thirty six year old.
No escaping it, you're just old thirty six.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I went so long with not remembering my age and
just being like, I don't know, I'm somewhere in the
thirties until my wife made me remember.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Yeah, well, we're one year off from being able to
do a really easy math. We're eighty nine. If you
were ninety, the math on your age would be easy.
All the time.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
That's what I tell people, and they're like, you're.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Stupid, just do ninety plus one.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I guess and that's what everyone says to me. But
my wife was getting sick of me asking her how
old am I? And she's like, learn, learn how old
you are and keep it in your mind and stop
asking me.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
But we are in the range. And I also think
post thirty is where that begins. Once you get thirty,
it doesn't matter anymore. We are you thirty one to
thirty five.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Post thirty under forty, that's what it is. Yeah, yeah,
it was dope. Speaking of matt life, Happy Mother's Day, Mac.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Yes, yeah, Happy Mother's Day to your wife and all
the wives and moms out there. Yeah, classic my family fashion.
We couldn't come up with a definitive plan until Sunday
morning and then everything was booked. So now we're doing
Mother's Day dinner on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
That's not bad, though. We did Mother's Day on Saturday.
We did a full day of Mother's Day stuff on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Yeah. Well, my sister's birthday is also two days before
mine May tenth, so we did a little thing for
her birthday over the weekend, and then of course my
mom was there. So it's kind of it gets all
three my Irish twins, you know. Yeah, No, four years apart.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Same thing, right, awesome. I'm pretty sure that Irish twins
are You're just born in the same year, right, correct.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah, the Irish Catholics fucked didn't believe in condoms. There
for lots of sex, lots of babies.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I mean, I'm not Irish Catholic, but condoms toss them
out the window.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Well, I don't think either of us are particularly religious.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Now now, zap no who is religious? Nicole Kidman about
AMC Theaters and AMC will be slashing prices on Wednesday Wednesdays,
actually not just one Wednesday, but all the Wednesdays in
July by fifty percent.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Uh, the kidding bounced down to AMC? Or does AMC
bow down to Nicle Kidman? It's like THEO It's like
the Holy Trinity sort of thing. What's the third part
of the Trinity?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Tom Cruise? No, it's Tom Cruise and they're separated, they're divorced,
But like, those two are the most pro theater people
in the world. And she also does these what feel
like hour long fucking things at AMC Theater.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
You know, I completely forgot that those two were a
thing because she's been married to Keith Urban for so long,
and of course he was with Katie Holmes, but I
forgot that was a thing.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And also it's because she's so tall. She's quite tall,
and he is a little rugrat.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So the google it it says that he's like five
to nine. I want to say that's five seven.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
So the whole trinity of movies is AMC Theaters, Nicole
Kidman and Tom Cruise.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
And never forget this, the triangle is the strongest shape.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Is That's right? Uh, AMC. I'm happy to see you
doing initiatives like this. A lot of theaters around here
will do Tuesdays six dollars Tuesdays or whatever. It's those
Tuesday Wednesdays, you know, middle part of the weeks where
they're not getting a lot of foot traffic in there,
and this is a great way to get people in there.
So I'm all for it.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I forget which theater talked about it, but it should
be surge pricing. It should be based on the day Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday should be lower pricing.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
No, I hate that because eventually it would even out.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Well, I'm not saying to raise the price on Saturdays
and Sundays. I'm just saying lower the prices on Monday Wednesday.
Monday through Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Good. There's a lot of places do that in general,
but it's usually just one day.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
But then yeah, on Saturday night, make the prices one
hundred dollars at seas I.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Think sixty eight dollars to Sea Avengers.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yes, surge. Price the shit out of this. I love
going in a parking on the street for the same
price that I could park in a parking garage.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You know where I'm at now, and I already talk
to you about the luxury theaters. You know, specifically the
Chestnunt Hill Theater. I get the super lux appeal. You
can order food to your seats. I get all that
stuff for me. I don't want to be fucking chowing
on wings while watching a movie. The second part to that,
and this is just all theaters with all as sign seating,
which I'm four love that. It makes me decide which
(06:03):
time I'm gonna go see the movie based on where
I can get a seat. If you show up to
an assigned seat theater and just sit wherever you want
and wait until people file in to move to your seats,
I want to fucking kill you. I hate you.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I hate walking into a theater and having to speak
to anybody, let alone say to them, oh your seat.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Yeah, like we're at a ball game and the usher
is gonna be like, oh, let me see your then.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Also, what's so annoying is that they'll look around and
be like, why don't you sit somewhere else? No, no, no, no, no,
I picked this seat.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yes, I got online before you did. You fucking dragged
your feet. You go sit on the edge, you motherfucker.
I'm in the middle.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Also, it's kind of annoying, but it's also really funny
when people pick seats right next to you when there's
so many more open seats.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Well. Now, the pro move is, especially when you're going solo,
as you pick two over from like people that are sitting,
so that leaves an empty seat in between you, and
then hypothetically, no one's gonna pick the seat right next
to a solo so to see on either side of you.
That's that's the real hack right there.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, it's like picking a urinal exactly.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
It's if we if theater seats operated on urinal principles,
we'd be in a much better place.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Niz dam Weekend Box Office Thunderbolts comes in number one
once again, but did have a bit of a drop
off fifty five percent down to thirty three million. Didn't
quite get that New Avengers crowd. I would assume that
they're just gonna change the name when you look on fandango,
(07:32):
when you look online, they're gonna start calling it New Avengers.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah, it'll still be called Thunderbolts.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I'm not sure if it will because so the posters
are different now. I think they're gonna change it online
now too.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
For sure, but it's still gonna be called Thunderbolts. I'm
guessing it's a good movie if you haven't seen it,
I do think it's worth seeing in the theaters. However, whatever,
if you don't want to, that's fine. You're not You're
not really missing out.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
That's our motto of this podcast. Fine, we don't care.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
We're not quite a cole Kidman and Tom Cruise. We
just highly suggest you see it.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Oooh out of this uh partnership here. Who is the Cruise?
Who is the Kidman?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
I am taller than you, so I might take Kidman.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I mean that's not true, but I don't think either
of us are real. If anyone were to jump on
a couch, it would be you.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I'd jump on a couch. I would jump out of
a plane. I used to like playing jackass with my friends.
Did you ever play jackass with your friends?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah? Of course I grew up in a porner.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, but what kind of stunts would you do? I
would do really risky stunts.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I mean everyone tried the shopping cart one, and that
one is terrifying. It's a great idea until you're within
like eight feet of the object you're smashing into and
you're like, this is a.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Mistake when you see that curve. But does this time
just freezes.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
When you try to picture how you're gonna launch out,
You're like, ah No.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
For those of you who are familiar with the uh,
it's no longer the Arsenal Mall, it's the Arsenal Yard.
Outside of the home depot. There used to be a
Bugaboo creek right there, and we used to frequently go
to the Bugaboo Creek and that's where you would play
jackass and get in the shopping comtry.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Oh yeah, they had a really really nice parking garage
conducive to smashing into things because there was eight thousand
poles in there, so that was pretty.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Great, right, and not a lot of cars. We weren't
there to damage cars.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Yeah, and on the second floor. Good. I don't know
if you knew this, but you're probably being watched by
the FBI, which had an office on the second floor
of that structure.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Right, But they all found it funny because we're doing
jackass sure, yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
No, FBI don't care about that. You'd get local police
mad about being jackasses, but the FBI for sure laughing
at it.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Off the back of thunderbolts. Let's see here. The official
Avengers social media has added a copyright symbol to it.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I don't really understand that. I don't give it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
It's a joke because remember in the movie, Sam Wilson.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Now I get it, see explain.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I don't want to get too deep into it. I
don't want to spoil nothing. But it's a pretty stelly joke, right,
pretty good. Also, director Jake Schreier is in talks to
direct the X Men movie.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Strong first effort from Jake. I'm in on that. I'm
in on it. Yes, give him, give him anything he needs.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Also at the box office, Sinners drops thirty six percent
in week four to twenty one million. That's standing strong,
doing a real good job. Yeah, two eighty three worldwide.
Minecraft now at nine hundred and ten million dollars worldwide.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
It's the holy Trinity of movies. It's Tom Cruise, Nicole Kimmen,
and Minecraft.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
My eight year old niece and five year old nephew
really want to see the movie.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
They haven't seen it yet.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
They have not seen it.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh my god. I took my kid a week before
it came out because I'm a good dad. And then
accounting two.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I am somewhat looking forward to seeing that, but certainly
not gonna pay money for it.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
No, no, that's not a movie. But that also does
look it looks silly.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
It does look silly, and we love John Burnhal and
Ben Afflick.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
But all of these movies will not be dethroned this
next coming week. But that doesn't matter because money's not everything.
News Dump. The most important thing in life is friendship,
and this weekend you finally get it.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
For years, for what what do we now? In our
ninth year it was a podcast. We've been trying to
bring you friendship, and finally this week we can bring
you officially Friendship. Friendship being spearheaded by Tim Robinson Paul
rud In A twenty four. Is that the real holy
trinity of movies?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
That is, that's the holy Trinity of theaters?
Speaker 1 (11:25):
So two screens this week for Friendship. I unfortunately couldn't
make the one last. I have seen it. I purposely
didn't ask many questions about it. Okay, I am seeing
it tomorrow. I will ask you one question. M hm,
where you disappointed?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
No, I loved it.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I didn't ask. I didn't ask you to say he
loved it.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Oh sorry, I can't stop thinking about it. As a
matter of fact.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
All right, well I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
So I went and I saw it with our buddy
Billy d. He does the graphics on this show and
the big takeaway. He said to me, I need to
see it again, which I do agree. I need to
see it in like any good comedy, you want to
find those secondary jokes. But in the twelve hours since
seeing it, I'm just seen by scene more and more
(12:05):
things are coming back to me and like the smaller
jokes are hitting or so obviously with a sketch show,
you can't let things linger too long. In a one
hundred minute movie, you can take your time and really
make the audience uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Well, and to just double down on sort of that
statement or in a dundum a kickflip of christ air,
you know, part of the magic of Tim Robinson comedy.
And I think you should leave specifically over more say
the Detroiters is the rewatches, you find other things funnier
and funnier, and things on the third or fourth rewatching
(12:43):
you didn't laugh at the first time now'll become funny.
So I wonder if this movie will have a similar experience.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Should I give a quick reviewer?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
No, no, no, I don't because I don't want to
personally hear about it.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Take your headphones off, okay.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I'll give you fifteen seconds, okay.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
And this is what I sent to the movie theater
p Well, I said, I loved it. It was my
exact style, equal parts classic comedy, awkward humor and jokes
that only Robinson can pull off.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
We're back, nice Jobo.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Also coming up in theaters in the next month or so.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Well, this is I got a bit of a gripe,
you know, as as fucking artists, now that we review
movies here goo.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Don't you hold up? Hold up, hold up? No, think
of a different word.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Where are teasts?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
We do not make sam screenings go over This week
they had three screenings in the same theater.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
At the same time last night. I couldn't go to
any of the three, so number one annoyed about that.
But number two they made you pick last night. Luckily
two of those three movies are second screenings, for so
hypothetically you could have gotten.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Off even if there was no second screening. This was
an easy change, I know for.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
You, and I yes, but you know you put this
Friendship screen the same night as the Mission Impossible screening,
and the secondary screen of both of those also the
same night.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Also seeing it, and not to keep on bragging about screenings,
but seeing it in a theater with people that you
can tell they have been seeking this movie and waiting
for this movie. You were watching it with Tim Robinson fans,
and it was amazing. So many Dan Flash's shirts, so
many people yelling at the screen during the trailers, in
(14:16):
the previews. It was amazing.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
So I'll have a bit of a different experience because
mine's gonna be without the pleeps, just the reviewers only.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
So most people going uh. He was kind of annoying.
He was kind of awkward. I didn't like when he
did this. How about this?
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Shut up? The other one was Final Destination Bloodlines, which
I don't think I'll be seeing in theaters, but I
will see it at some point and on the horizon
Goo again, Mission Impossible. In a couple of weeks. We
also will have Ballerina coming up, and we also got
How to Train Your Dragon, which I don't know if
I'm gonna catch that one either, but that one's gonna
be very popular.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I need to wait until I can bring my kid.
I'm not gonna see it by myself. It was dup
the trailer for F one, and this trailer really points
to me that it's gonna be not a step by
step like following in the footsteps of Top Gun Maverick,
(15:09):
which was I'm an old guy and I'm gonna show
you young kids how to race cars. But this trailer
really does show hey, the old guy's still cool.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Just definitely different than Top Gun Maverick.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Brad Pitt is the old guy. He's already he's a
retired race car driver that's coming back, and the young
guys are like, I'm surprised. They're doing a senior circuit
and you know that Brad Pitt's gonna win it and
do some cool tricks, and all the kids are like, damn,
old man, you still got it. It's it's it's old
man porn.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
This is yeah, for your one hundreds, right about that.
But this, in in essence is the difference between Tom
Cruise and Brad Pitt. Right, It's incredibly hard to really
believe Brad Pitt as an underdog because he's so strapping
and not short. Tom Cruise easy to believe as an underdog.
You know, I mean, like and Top Gun Maverick.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
If Brad Pitt, No, but Top Gun Maverick from the
get go, that opening scene with him on the motorcycle,
You're like, all right, he's gonna show these kids a
fucking thing or two.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Yeah, but if it was Brad Pitt, there would be
no doubt that he's gonna show these No.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Look, we know that these kids are gonna be taught
a thing or two and he's gonna change some diapers
on the screen.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
A thing or two will be shown.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
No, due, here's Deppe been a trailer for Peacemaker.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Yeah, I'm honestly really not looking forward to this, and
I thought to say that I don't think it's gonna
be good. I just have a hard time, Like, I
don't know, it's not something I'm I'm striving for. At
the moment, it looks decent, it'll be funny because James
Gun's helming it, of course, but I can't pretend I'm
like really.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Looking forward and the first season is decent too.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, I'm just not really looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
There's depp another trailer for Ballerina, and I will say,
as someone who is a fan of the John Wick series,
I'm a fan of the actress that is playing the
ballerina Lamassin. I'm a little concerned about this movie. It
does sound like there was a lot of reshoots and
there's a lot of shoehorning John Wick in there. And
(17:10):
I also I was thinking of John Horn. Who's John Horn?
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I don't know. I think I know Joe Horn.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
I was thinking of Joe Horn and then Jason Cehorn, right,
But I don't like the timeline of this movie, and
when it's coming out, I wanted it to be separate
from the John Wick stuff and off on its own.
I don't want it to be John Wick three point five.
I don't like the fact that it's taking place almost
at the same time as the worst of the John
(17:39):
Wick movies.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yeah, so I agree with you, and I think the
original idea and the filmmaker's idea was to do that separate,
just have it operate in that universe. And I think
the studio stepped in and was like, we're afraid no
one's gonna see it without John Wicks.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
We're gonna retitle this some bitch, It's gonna be a
John Wick story. Colon Ballerina Dash John Wick is here.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah, it strikes me at least what I'm gathering from
the trailer is it'll be two thirds Ballerina and then
John Wick is going to like play a major role
in the third act.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah that's pretty good, right.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Yeah, Yeah, God is good. Yeah yeah, with a lot
of God talk with the Holy Trinity today.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I also thought for a second that, what's your John
Wick impression?
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You're Yeah, it made me think of that though.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
News Depe what a little tease a little image A
release date of March twenty seven, twenty twenty seven, for
Godzilla Times Kong Colon super Nova.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Hear me out. I'm out. I'm out on the Godzilla
cong stuff.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Oh, I am too. I I didn't care for the
last one. I was extremely bored. I don't care about
the giant fighting uh monsters anymore. Also, I forgot to
put the headline in there because I was in such
a rush I wanted to write more monkey math. So
I feel like we lost people at the beginning for.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Not having that good happening joke. For sure.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I really did not like the last one. The one
prior to that I thought was fine. Exactly. I don't
care about these, but if it's going to bring you back.
Godzilla apparently has green breath in this one, which means thinky,
does that.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Mean he's gonna be like Godzilla two thousand, where everything
was like black and green? You know, remember everything was
black and green. Right around to that, the whole xbox
appalized on the black and.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
I was about to start singing a canceled song general Apologize,
I apologize, well, no, I almost sang the opening song
from the CD with Jimmy Page and the fellow that
could no longer be named oil Boy.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Here here's a challenge for you and all the folks
out there, tell someone to suck it today the little
d X sucket. Just see what happens.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
You got to do the hand mode.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
No, don't just say it, it's it's the whole thing.
Do the sucket motion and let me know it goes.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
What do you think is a better way to tell
someone off? The finger? But you gotta do like the
M and M finger with like the like the two.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Stay up.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I don't want to do it on the screen because
we might get flagged on YouTube and then we're not
gonna TV. I'm not sure, but I'm also going to
ask that or telling someone to suck it with the cross.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
If you really get the hips into it, I think
I think the suck it's much a much bigger insult.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
There was nothing better. First off, I wish that we
did suck it more. But also in high school, we
graduated in the year twenty oh seven. That and actually
you weren't on the baseball team at the time. This
was senior year. You had already dropped out of school
to help your family make money at the steel mill.
But we used to as a rule, if someone was
(20:42):
able to fake kick you in the chest, you had
to sell it and then you would receive the biggest
stunner of all.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
To kick to groggy, you had to be groggy.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Yep, you'd have to.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Person hits l one for the finisher, see you.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
That was the best power of playing baseball in two
thousand and seven. Of course there was in the hall ways.
If someone was walking by you, you were able to
step in front. You had you had to set your
feet though. Sure, yeah, you could take a offensive fouel.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah. I also was a big fan of and we've
talked about this before. For a short time there we
were Hodo getting people in the hallway. Oh that was
good to particularly underclassmen that would be terrified by a classman.
It was ge Is that bullying? Just scaring younger kids
in the hallway? Is that considered bullying?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
It's great, and it's also bullying. I don't think you
can do anything anymore.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
I remember hit some poor soul. She was this tidy
little girl with a hotdogan, and I scared the fu.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
So it wasn't us, but the upper classmen that would
kind of tour no like there was absolutely a chance
that they would punch you in the face. There was
someone who's not for given people. Scottie Pippins where they
would shove your nose into your skull. But they used
to just walk out to us and just skull like this,
and like you knew there was a chance they were
(21:58):
gonna fucking punch you in the face.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Yeah, we were much nicer than that. That group of
misfits a couple of years older than us.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
None of them actually punched us in the face. It
was just the threat of punch enough.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
They had a couple wild cards that it was enough
to make you think they'd all.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
It wasn't enough wild cards. They were all wild cards.
It was a group of all wild cards. There was
no leader of the bunch. There was no face sure,
there was no random woman, there was no money.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Mag nine wild cards.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
It was all wild cards. Anything could happen at any time.
What are we talking about. We're on Spider Man Noir.
We got a teaser we got this is the series
starring Nicholas Cage. The series will be released in both
black and white and color. I don't like that pick one.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Yep, so live Action Spider Noir. I gotta say the
quick teaser we got looks pretty good in black and white.
I think I'll stick to black and white.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
It's shot to be in black and white, and yes, okay,
Logan looks good in color, but it was shot to
be in black and white. It looks better in black
and white.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
And there's also there's a difference than like the Logan
black and white then like the noir since City, feel
that this is going to be going forward too, because
the color is certainly going to be different. But now
I don't think about it'd be really funny to watch
it in color and just have like some random Papa
color there that makes no sense. But in black and
white it works.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
That comes out In twenty twenty six, News Dope Matthew
Lillard has confirmed that he has been cast and Daredevil
Born Again season two. It is a small role right now,
but hopefully people like it and they bring me back
in some capacity.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
I don't know enough about comic books to hypothesize what
character he could be playing, but if you have an
idea and you're listening right now, please let us know,
because I'd like to do a little googs on it.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I would say I would like him to play Stu
from screen, right.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
No, I know you would like him to play that.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Yeah, that'd be great.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, And then Liver Alone and then the Scream universes
in the MCU.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
But also I think he is playing Stu again in
the next Scream.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Yeah, but he's probably gonna be playing ghost stew Is.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
My guess, what are we doing with all these ghosts
they do? Let's Oh, actually I did see a trailer
for the I Know What You Did Last Summer at
the movies last night, and it's the one that we've
seen on social media. But I would have loved to
have seen that trailer not on social media but with
(24:21):
a crowd for the first time. And like, you know,
get see the pop that like Freddie Prince gets Jennifer
Love Hewett no when he steps up in that town
hall meeting and he's like, we need to stop the violence.
Fucking Freddy Prince, let's go.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
No. I love I love the pop and they do
it every time they bring a character back. You see
you're looking from the back, right, Jennifer Love Hugh. It's
just walking, walking, walk, It stops. Turns fucking best absolute best.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Do we need to And I think this is what
I Know What You Did last summer is trying to do.
They're trying to stay relevant, just long enough to get
the Scream crossover. At that point when they do crossover,
can Jennifer I Love hewittt speak to the.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Ghosts Oh, I don't even don't even get me going
on Ghost Whisper. Yeah, come on, Ghost Whisper went on
for like nine seasons just because of the outfits. Jennifer
Love Hewart Warren Basic Cable or is that CBS not
even been at CBS show? I don't even know.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
I've only seen it on packs what a show news dope,
but our first look at the new office. That is
the series that has actually to be titled The Paper
because they're working at a newspaper. The series follows dunder
Mifflin Documentary Crew the dunder Mifflin Documentary crew as they
follow or focus on a dying historic Midwestern newspaper and
(25:41):
its volunteer reporters. This is being released in September on Peacock.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I'm gonna watch it with very very low expectations. I'll
probably like it, but I'm glad it's going to the Cock.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
What they need to do is don't make the documentary
series a part of the cast and crew. I don't
want to know that they are real people, just give
me the people that work at the newspaper.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Well, that's gonna be hot. Kind of hard to do
since maybe the selling point is, hey, these were the
guys that did it on the Dunder movie.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I don't Yeah, but season nine of The Office is garbage,
and that's what a lot of that he's saying.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
They're gonna copy season nine.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
But you know, if you are letting those documentary people
be a part of the series like they did in
season nine of the Office, that is dumb.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
They're not gonna be a part of the series. I
don't think they're just gonna be filming it the same
way they did for The Office.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
You know, who should be the only crossover character, the
only conduit from the Office to the paper, Clark Duke.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
I mean we I think we're pretty sure. I feel
like I heard both bj Novak and Mindy Kayling are
loosely connected to this, So I wouldn't be surprised if
you see either of their two characters Ryan And what
was Mindy Kaling's character?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
I'm blank?
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Yeah, why do we not know her name?
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I am Blankelly Kelly.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I wouldn't be surprised if we see those two characters
Pop up at some point. I can almost guarantee Toby's
going to be involved somehow. Outside of that, I don't
know what we're gonna get.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
I mean, I think as a nation we are ready
for the Clark Duke assance. He's not PLoP.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
The other guy is right, Pete's PLoP. You're right, Yeah,
there's dope.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I like how we forgot who Kelly was, but we
know who Clark Duke is. We know who PLoP is.
We're getting a creed not from the office, but from
the movies, the Rocky Movies spinoff series. It is officially happening.
It is titled Delphi and is set at the gym.
(27:39):
Did I get that right? Delphi Delphi? Are you sure sure?
I'm not seeing any line over the eye that would
that would indicate that it is pronounced that way. I
don't know if it is. We're gonna have to figure
this out later. I suppose it is set at the
gym featured in the films that follows young boxers who
train at the gym. And here is the issue that
I have is my Michael B. Jordan is an executive producer,
(28:02):
meaning that he's probably not tied into this beyond him
getting money for the character.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
I just don't think we need this. I'm not interested
at all in any characters that aren't Creed.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
You know you say that, but you weren't interested in
a Creed movie after the Rocky series. Maybe this is
something new, maybe it's fresh.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
I mean, I don't need this. I won't be watching this.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I mean neither am I. I did not like that
third Creed movie. And I'm a big fan of the
first Creed movie, second Creed movie. The half that is
Creed is good. The half that is Rocky four point
five not good.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I still haven't seen Creed two. Creed three was definitely underwhelming.
I'll give you.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
That, maybe the most predictable movie I've ever seen, and
like that's it's a Rocky movie. They like predictable.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Michael b because he directed that, almost said it as much,
because he like he's a big fan of anime and
really copied like the classic anime stories, which is like
classic you know, underdog stories, and you just knew exactly
how that was going to turn out.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Huge news for Mac, a big fan of early aughts
reality television and game shows. Fox is bringing back fear
factor and you at the weakest link bye bye.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
So I never really cared for the weakest link other
than when they were getting eliminated. That was great, awesome,
fucking tidbit. Fear Factor is a great early two thousands
you know reality show. I don't know how good it'll
be now, but that was a great time and place
type of thing. Forcing people to do anything in order
(29:39):
to win money is always pretty good.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
It's the implications, is what mac is saying.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I think the single word. So I always Fear Factor
was always set up three challenges, and by the end
there you know people teams get eliminated along the way.
The first and the third one were more physical or manual.
The second one was always the middle one. Sandwichman was
always the eating one. And the eating ones is really
what get me. You could I could convince myself to
(30:06):
do anything, push my limits anything. On the first and
third one. I particularly remember the worst one for me.
I don't remember where they were specifically, but the setting
is a casino and they have like a craps table,
and on the craps table there's these like African cave spiders.
Do yourself a favor and look this up on YouTube.
These people have to eat these African cave spiders that
(30:27):
look like crabs but they're spiders. They're like, they look
thick like that, and they're live and they gotta pick
them up and eat them. I never, ever, in a
million years, would have done that, never, not even I
would rather I would rather get shot with an actual
bullet through the arm or something than eat an African
cave spider.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I was gonna ask you, who do you think winsphear
factor between you and I?
Speaker 1 (30:48):
But it comes out any time. Yeah, can you do
eating stuff?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Now?
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Yeah, we'd both lose in the second round every time.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
I can't even eat uh what is it called, uh,
steak tartar, beef tartar.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
That's a tough one. Yeah, I don't know which is.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
It's just raw beef.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
I know it's it's hard to pyke yourself up for that.
That type of shit. Like fish is fine. You can
do fish like savice that sort of stuff. But yeah,
beef tartar is a tough cell beef tartar.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
And people are like, oh, it's a delicacy. No, it
is raw, and then you have raw egg with capers.
It is not for me. I agree, So newsz app
tough News, But prior to the tough News, they had
ran or Run an add it was a little crossover
between Superman and Jason Tatum where Tatum was Superman. Is
(31:36):
when the Celtics were down to nothing, they did come
out and win Game three and things have gone downhill
since then. But Mac the reason why I bring this up,
it reminded me of the fact that Shaquille O'Neil took
over the mantle as Superman or of Superman in the nineties. Yeah,
which then got me to thinking, I don't think Superman
(31:57):
or I don't think Shaquille O'Neil, you would pull off
the dual role of Superman and Clark Kent. Because even
if you put a pair of glasses on him, you say,
I think that seven foot three black man is both
the Superman and Clark Kent.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Yeah, that's a tough one. That's a tough one, and
honestly it shouldn't come into consideration. But you know, we
discussed this briefly when we discuss Idris Elba as James Bond.
It does matter when you're trying to have a secret
identity that there's just less black people on the planet.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
So it's talking more about the size and that Shack
is a one of one when it.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Comes to understands that there's only so many seven foot
people on the planet and then there's only some seven
foot black man on the planet. I'm just talking about.
It narrows down the odds mathematically. So it's not great.
It's not great, that's for sure. I do like that
Shaq mostly did it though, because the s and he
stole the Superman symbol. When Dwight Howard tried to do it,
We're like, what are we doing here? Dude?
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Fuck you hr I'm how to work with the papa?
Are you Superman? What are you talking about? Also, now
it looks like you just have glasses on.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
What are you doing now that we're on the topic
of sports. Uh Number one incredible NBA lotteries one hundred
percent rate. Unbelievable that Oh my god. Yes, flag number two.
The Tatum injury is really tough because Achilles is baseline
like nine to ten months, more likely a year. So
Kevin Durant had this happen like five or six years ago,
he missed the whole season. Celtics are gonna get old quick,
(33:25):
Horford Drew. They're old. It's gonna be a really interesting
upcoming season. And how fitting is it that the injury
comes because Jalen Brown turned the ball over while dribbling.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
I wouldn't put all the blame on that though.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
How fitting I said, I didn't put the blame on him.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
I didn't. I'm not putting the blame on that. That
is it's a non contact people get hurt.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, yeah, get on contact because he was diving for
a loose ball after Jalen Brown dribbled it off of himself.
I will say explosiveness clearly matters in pro sports and
in basketball. Jason Tatum is a good enough player that
he doesn't need to be as explosive as he was
right now to be an All NBA type of player.
But that is a tough one. Man. Achilles is fucking
(34:02):
You would much rather tayor acl these days, and Terror Achilles.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
This has nothing to do with the podcast. We're hitting
sports right now. We're forty minutes and we can do
whatever we want. We're in safe water right now. The
best standing dunker of all time, I'm Mari Stodomayer.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Maris Sttenmeyer's great he had I think they were Adidas shoes.
I want to say, and like two thousand and two
he came out with the stats stat standing tall on talented.
That was his nickname. It'd have been O three great
fucking shoes. One of my favorite pairs of basketball shoes.
No one had them. They had them at foot locker.
I had a pair of those, had a pair of
the T Max as well. Those are my two favorite
(34:37):
players in the early two thousands, T Mac and Marius Stottenmeyer.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
News dump GTA six trailer.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Who I'm one of the few people on this planet
that have never played GTA five. I loved pretty much
every GTA game going up to GTA five. I just like,
I know, it's not my style of gaming anymore. I
certainly get the appeal. I probably will play GTA six,
just not like over the moon about this. I mean
at some point, and I've seen some really funny TikTok
videos like GTA is just becoming a real life sim
(35:07):
and that has mass appeal, but I don't that's not
what I want.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
More like gt and A.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
It does look like they're working like a nice love
story into this one. For the first time. There's a
there's a mod on online GTA where people play as
police and pull people over.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Oh, news dope, huge news for Mac. Just ahead of
the release of Clicked for Good, NBC will be doing
a live television musical special featuring Wicked stars Cynthia Rivo
and Ariana Grande that will air. Like I said on
(35:44):
NBC in November.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
How did you turn to Revo into the Italian one?
By the pronunciations there.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
Dadie Evo?
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Uh yeah, this will be fine.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
I don't know, this will be fine, Mac. You were
so pants ten City about Wicked for like two months.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
I don't need to do a live musical TV special.
I'll just rewatch the movie.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
You love music.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
I do like if you're telling me these two were
starring in Grease too, the live action musical.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Maybe Oh, and they both play Michelle Fiver life.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Is I don't know. I mean, this will be fine whatever.
I don't care about.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
This news dope, last of us. I still haven't seen it.
But macas Yeah, we got.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Two episodes left in the season five in through season
two episodes three and four. We're a little bit low
action wise, but we're necessary to build, you know, some
stories and relationships between our A couple of main characters.
Number one Dina is the best character on the show
right now, like by far. Number two. The most recent
(36:47):
episode was great and action packed and had a really
fucking satisfying moment and visually was really fucking cool for
a couple of scenes. Does look like we're gonna have
that classic like flashback free finale episode for episode six,
but you will need it to do, I think, to
flesh out some Joel and Ellie things. I think this
(37:09):
season has been a little up and down, but it's
also like really necessary to get from point A to
point B, which is season one and season three, and
it's a classic sandwich thing. You know. The middle parts
of television series maybe aren't always the best, but I
just I'm excited for good to watch what episode you
You didn't you haven't watched any right, Yeah, so I'm
(37:31):
excited for you to get to episode two, which is
an incredible episode of television. And then this most recent
one was also really great. So I'm looking forward to
the finale.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
The checks out at the end of the week, we'll
be talking about Friendship, New's Dope
