Speaker 1 (00:00):
New Oscars rule seems obvious. I don't have a guy
fiery voice of really fucking this up?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
You know, why don't you start over again?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
It's fine to start over again real quick.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Winter Winter Sinner's Dinner.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
New Oscars rule seems obvious. Winter Winter Sinners Dinner. I
don't have this one either, Really, you really set the
site high. Pedtro Pascal is fifty and he can stretch.
Paul Rudd plays with Power Star Wars stuff and so
much more coming up this week. News dump.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Pedro Pascal is fifty and he can stratch.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
You expected too much out of me on this one.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Come on, this might be my best headlines yet of
having you play around.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
You had like three headlines and had two characterstributed.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Big news for you, mac over at Donald's. The chicken
tenders are back right now at select locations chickens select locations,
and it'll be nationwide on April twenty ninth, and the
snack rap will be back on the fourteenth of what
month we do not know yet.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
So two things here. McDonald's chicken tenders were never good,
but when they are dressed up as a snack wrap,
they are good. I don't know what happens in between
the tenders and the dressing. I'll fuck with a snack rap.
I used to have two or three for lunch back
in my poor days. You know. They were like one
ninety nine or like two twenty nine a pop, really
good value. I hope they're pretty much the same as
(01:38):
they were fifteen years ago. But I could fox with
a snack crap and like, it's a good quick thing,
you know, if you're like near McDonald's, Like sometimes six
chicken nuggets ain't gonna do it for you. Twenty is
too much, you know, it's nice snack crap.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Can just go ten? They have a ten option.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, I don't know about that.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I will say the easiest way to be a cool uncle,
bring over twenty nuggets.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
What about twenty snack craps.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
That's how you make friends, I will say. One of
my favorite parts. I used to live with one of
my cousins and he would just show up randomly, like, hey,
I got twenty five Taco Bell tacos.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
On the party pack.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah, you can have some if you want, Like, fuck.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
It, all right, I mean, I know you're not gonna
eat all twenty five, so I guess I will have some.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
You've given me no option news dope. The Academy Award
has announced that all members must watch all nominated movies
in each category to be eligible to vote at the Oscars.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah. This, if it wasn't obvious in years prior. They
outright had anonymous Oscar voters this year talking about how
they had not seen specific things and so they didn't
vote for them. And that's just you can't. That would
be like a baseball writer not voting for Shoho Tani
because he didn't watch one of his games, and you're like, yeah,
(02:58):
but you know he exists, and you know, ever else
says he's really good. So it's just ignorant, is what
it is. Go, And I know it's not the biggest
honor in the world to be able to vote on
the Oscars, but like take it a little seriously, you know,
like they're not asking to do all that fucking much.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
The Academy will start tracking viewing via members only Academy
Screening Room app. The Screening Room app. Also if you
see screenings film festivals, et cetera. Members will have to
fill out a form declaring when and where they watched
each film. MAC What this tells me. No, while they're
ninety seven and their ninety seven oscars in, is that
(03:35):
what it is?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
People could also not vote. That option exists as well.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
No, But so what I'm saying though, however many they
are in. Yeah, all previous oscars are bullshit.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You're putting an asterisk on all the prior oscars.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
There's no evidence that everyone who voted on each category
nomination has seen all the movies. This really gets into
like nineteen ninety four. You know, we all like Forrest Gump,
but there are better movies.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
No, that's what I mean. So, like, if it wasn't
obvious in the past that people weren't seeing the best
movies of the year, it became quite obvious, especially this
year when you have voters talking about it and I
don't even know, you know, maybe it was off the cuff.
It was certainly on the record because it was reported.
But you had multiple people talking about not seeing certain movies,
(04:24):
and it's like, that's fine. If you've only seen five
of the ten Best Picture nominies, don't vote. You don't
need to have a say.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Or people saying that they were voting for a specific
actor because they felt it was their time to win
their first Oscar when they had already won oscars.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
That so, yeah, that is dumb that the bias stuff
doesn't bother me as much, because that's inherent in every
voting you're gonna have with people when you when you're.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Out with the greatest fatigue. No, no, no, you vote
for whoever the best player is. Nikola Jokic is the
best player in the NBA, give him the NVP.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Bron James was for the ten years prior and the
only one what three four, you.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Know, Michael Jordan was every year in the nineties, and
they're like, you know what, let's give it to carm alone.
You can fill the statuets. Don't get me wrong, bad
guy fill the statuets though.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Yeah, but that's that's what I mean. Like the bias
comes into play, the narratives come into play, and it's
just it's just the way it is, especially when you
get in like to me at least, and I you know,
correct me if I'm wrong. You know you're never have,
never will good in both worlds here, and I think
as am i art is more objective than sports. So
(05:33):
sports usually it's a little more obvious when there's a
winner of something or more.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Well now, especially with movies or with the advanced stats.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, exactly, we can really like optimize how one can vote.
When it comes to movies, there is nothing like that.
There's no war for movies. Now. I'm sure some nerd
on the internet has come up with something, and I'd
love to see it.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I'm sure we can figure this out.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yeah, Like, you know, if a movie does lots of things, well,
i'm sure it's gonna have a high war. But you know,
it's I just think it's important that, like, if you're
given a vote, you should see everything that's just part
of it. Like, Okay, maybe it's two or three things
you don't want to watch or they're bad. The other
seventy to eighty percent is like the benefit of I
don't know, it's just I'm very bothered by this.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I'm sure the previous rule was, if you haven't seen
all the nominees, shut up, shut up, don't tell everybody,
don't explain yourself.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Yeah, say nothing.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
News Depp.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Over.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
At the box office, Sinners took home the top spot
with sixty one million dollars world wide. They was forty
five domestic, the highest grossing domestic imax opening ever for
a horror film. You just saw it? Is it a
horror film? Do you actually think that?
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah? So I have Also I have a couple issues
with the film. It's really fucking good.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I'm not asking you how good it is. I've seen
people debating if it was a horror movie, so.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
That's sort of what I'm getting at. You know, it's
clearly a vampire film. It's marketed as a vampire film.
How the vampires get brought into it is kind of
like shoehorned in and you just accept it because you
know going in it's gonna be a vampire film. But
if you went into that not knowing that, you'll probably
be like, what the fuck are we doing here? Because
is a great story and great characters already going on
(07:18):
separate from the vampire stuff, which is why I think
there's a good argument that it's not a horror movie.
There are horror elements, and there is blood and murder
and whatnot, but like the basis of the movie is
not horror oriented. It's just like a aspect of it.
So I could see I could see the argument for
it going either way. Like, I'm interestricted to talk about
(07:38):
it with you because I have listened to some of
what hashtag dork had to say. You know, keeps the
king of recency bias. He thinks the Graces movie all time,
and Ryan Davy also really enjoyed it, as did I.
But we get to, I think, break stuff down a
little more minutely having forty rungs where they have six,
so I never know, we're like a five and a
(07:59):
half on the dorks scale ends dogwise and it six
begins because I'm sure not all six out of six
movies or forty doggers, you know what I mean. So
I'm interested to eventually talk to you about this, hopefully
in a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
If you have a good shoehorn, the shoe goes on
real easy.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
That's true. That is true. It's a great point about shoehorns.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Minecraft came in second at forty six million seven to
twenty three worldwide.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
I also do not not that this affects the movie,
but it's just I'll probably never go back there. I
saw sinners at the Chestnut Hills super Lux. Super Luxes
are not for me. I don't need a fucking full meal.
I was in a somewhat full theater on a fucking
Wednesday afternoon. Somehow everyone's getting meals. Everyone's using their flashlight
to see worth their meals. Like. It's just it's not
(08:42):
the theater experience for me. I get why it's there,
but I just give me some fucking popcorn. Get out
of my way, stay two seats away from me. That's
my theory experience.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I've never seen Mack eat real food at a movie theater, never,
But all the screeners that we've seen brag while I'm
over there hogging down some burritos. Max over there sit
and saying I don't want to poop my pants.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
And I don't even eat popcorn during the movie. I
eat it during the previews and then I'm done. I
put it away. Every once in a while, I'll dabble
back in if I get a real itch, but I
get popcorn. I eat it in like the ten to
fifteen minutes during the previews, and then I'm done with it. It
goes off to the side. So I especially don't want
to sit next to a guy eating wings while I'm
watching Sinners.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
If I started my own movie theater, I think one
of the options I would put in play is a
troft of popcorn, like you can just put it right
in front of you and have it up high enough
so that if you don't want to use your hands,
you can just stick your face right in there.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Okay, there's the thought.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
And then you have a you know how in a
hamster wheel they have that water thing. Every theater has
its own like a hose that can drop down anywhere
and just put more popcorn in there if you get
the troft as much popcorn as you.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Want, Like if you brought someone on a date dinner
in a movie and you fed them movie theater dinner.
I don't think that's a very good idea.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Right, But if you feed them a trought of popcorn,
we're getting laid Yeah, news dope. Speaking of sinners, Ryan Coogler,
the director and writer of said film, confirms that an
X Files reboot is his next project, saying to last
pot on the left, Dan, that's a fucking good name.
(10:22):
Macn Do such a bad fuing name. But he said,
I'm fired up to go back to it, or to
get back to it. If we do our jobs right,
it's will be really fucking scary.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
So the nice thing about this movie and what it
means for the X Files is the X Files just
like scary, but it's also not like full on horror.
And I also feel that Sinners has a bit that
So this is like proof of concept that Couglar can
do that, not that we doubted that Cougar couldn't do it.
I say I think like, honestly, after watching this movie,
(10:56):
if you've seen all of other Cougar's movies, you're just like, yeah,
give him the keys, let him do it he wants.
He's one of the now three or four directors in
Hollywood that you're like, all right, I'm gonna see whatever
he's doing. Michael b included or not.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
There's nope, gott They are full. This is a full trailer.
The first one was more of a teaser. Correct for
the Fantastic Four.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
It seems we have a little bit more of a
storyline put together here and they're actually talking about the
pregnancy out loud now.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Talking about the pregnancy. It shows all four characters using
their abilities, using their powers, hence in the sweet headlines
that Pedro Pascal is fifty years old exactly and he
can thratch. We see Galactus walking around, and we also
see after the Silver Surfer has themselves a Capri's Sun
(11:45):
looking real shiny.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, I don't know what people expected Silver Server to
look like. I mean, that's what Silver Server looks like.
It's just not a great character designed just is what
it is. I'm pretty confident now that Galactus is coming
to Earth to kill Franklin Richards, son of Sue and Reed. Now,
if you don't know who Franklin Richards is, you should
(12:08):
start googling him because he's a massively powerful character that
has a lot of ramifications in the MCU. I'm pretty
convinced that's what this is gonna be. And in order
to escape that, they have to jump out of that universe.
That's my guess as to what's gonna happen and how
they get brought into our MCU or and sort of
to survive. I guess like Glactus will devour that world
they come into our MCU sort of stuff. The characters
(12:31):
seem like spot on the four Fantastic Four characters seem
really well done, and I'm just looking. I love we
know you know you and I we love a good
group dynamic as much as we love solo adventures like
Guardians is our favorite shit for a reason. You know,
the team ups are always good. This is a new
team up for us, so this is this is just
gonna be fun.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I will say this, though, maybe it's because of what
we just got with Captain America the last movie, and
maybe the over build up of these next couple movies.
I'm not very excited right now for MCU.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Okay, well, I'm looking forward to both this and Thunderbolts,
so I'm opposite of you, I suppose.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Speaking of Thunderbolts, News Dope screenings have begun, and so
have spoilers circulating on the interwebs. So if you are
looking to avoid those, start muting on x now and
avoid Reddit.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I'm too deep on the internet. I'm on the internet
too often to avoid these, so i haven't seen them yet,
but I'm sure the minute we finished recording, the first
thing that I'll pop up and reddit or on Twitter
is one of these spoilers.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
News Dope Anthony Mackie said that Avengers Doomsday will end
with the cliffhanger, also saying that no one is safe,
everyone is expendable. This is via Collider. He also said
with dooms Day, it is going to give the audience
that old Marble feeling that they always had. That's via
(13:59):
ign the first part.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Everyone's expendable, no one's safe. It's gonna know a cliffinger.
We all knew that. That seems a real fact, a
fake fact. Gu and his opinion more and moreover seems
to be that it's gonna give us this old marble feeling.
That's our hope, that's our desire. I don't know if
that's actually gonna happen, but the other stuff, for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I feel like he said that about the last Captain
America movie. Isn't that one of his quotes?
Speaker 1 (14:23):
He might have just copied and pasted.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
This, copied and paste all of his projects. He always
puts that on there.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
He's gonna note sappen, He's would you guys, you can
hold on one.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Yeah, because I've also seen rumblings that they are working
on a way to give Thor a classy uh maybe
not death, but way out of this franchise.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, you have to imagine the biggest stars here still left,
Chris Emsworth, Beneger kulor Batch. They're gonna see themselves out
of the MCU in short order, you know, one or
two appearances left.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Probably because they're also getting too expensive for them to
keep around for sure.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
For sure. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Speaking of someone that could be in a future Avengers
film or his future Spider Man movie is Andrew Garfield,
who does want to return as the character again. Peter Parker,
he played the character in the Amazing Spider Man Movie,
saying it would have to be very weird. I think
I would like to do something very strange. Is a
(15:23):
hinting toward a character. I would want to do something
very unique, offbeat and surprising.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
I think the time has passed for me personally. I
love Andrew Garfield.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
There was a very small window that you were all
the way back in on Andrew Garfield as Spider Man.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
And now it's like, where are we gonna go? Like,
we already have so many Spider Man projects operating like
adjacent to the MCU. We do not need an additional one.
We just don't. And we all love Spider Man, we
just don't need another one.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
I also just thought about this the other day. It's
crazy that No Way Home came out four years ago,
five years ago.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Somewhere around there anyone, I think, Yeah, yeah, it's a
long time ago.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
We'reladi in the year twenty thirty three. News Denn speaking
of twenty thirty three. Back in nineteen ninety one, Paul
Rudd was in a sness commercial super Nintendo, playing the
Legend of Zelda a Link to the Past, and as
they are revealing a new upcoming console, Nintendo brought back
(16:26):
Paul Rudd, who hasn't aged a day since he recorded that.
He looks a little old now, but they brought him
back to recreate the commercial, playing Mario Karts with a
couple friends. And he's got the long hair in a
cool jacket or shirt whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I mean something. If they're grabbing Paul Rudd to recreate
thirty five year old commercials, you know, numbers aren't good
On Nintendo's end, They're like, oh, we gotta fucking goose
this up.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
We got the people aren't happy with what we've done.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Yeah, so I think that says all you need to know.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
We can tell you from our TikTok. People are not
happy with Nintendo.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
People hate Nintendo. People hate this rollout.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
And because we even talked about it, people are mad.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
They all hate us now too.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah people always hated us anyways, that's true. But uh yeah,
I like the Legend of Zelda A link to the
past one of my favorite Zelda's I'm not I you
know you don't like Zelda.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I'm okay with Zelda. It's not my favorite. Did you
ever play Breath of the Wild?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Yeah? I loved it?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
People what nuts for it? Didn't care for it.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
I loved Breath of the Wild. They didn't get a
chance to play that sequel. But by the way, they
should have held that sequel for Switch Too. Correct.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I bet there was rumblings of that, and now instead
they'll just roll out another Mario Kart or another Mario party.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
You know. By bringing back Paul Rudd for this commercial,
it just made me think, why would you call it
switch to and not just call it super Switch, which
then lets you know that it's better than the original Switch?
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah, because now it's just switch. Also, Yeah, what's.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
A better name than Ezra? Better than Ezra?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
News dep Star Wars celebrated their Star Wars celebration. Stup
the Disney Star Wars marble. Too many celebrations. Let's pick
one day a year because May the fourth is coming up.
They're gonna do stuff for that too.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, we're on our what twentieth anniversary of Revenge of
the sist, which I think we'll talk about in the
next week or two. Hayden Christensten notoriously hated from the
original Trilloy.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
No, everyone loves him now.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
He's come back. He's people have restored him somehow, some
way him himself as well. I think people just feel
bad they had regrets.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
No, but he is, somehow, some way the ambassador to
this franchise.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
I know, it's weird. It's bizarre because everyone he cut
back to two thousand and five, two thousand and seven, like,
no one wanted Hayden Christian anywhere near Star Wars and
it's changed. Ah happy for him, happy for his career.
I'm happy to see him back as Anna can and
it's such a great character.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
So yeah, he's returning for Ahsoka too. And he's also
talked about there's a lot more Darth Vader stories to tell,
and he would like to dive into that. But I mean,
if you're just doing Darth Vader, do you need him?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
How interesting is a Darth Vader story really? Too, he's
just gonna maul everyone.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
No, he's pretty fucking sweet. He's pretty fucking great. Speaking
of mal are getting you tell me an animated show.
This is shadow Lord Mal, tell me about it, big dog, I.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Don't know much about it. I do know, uh, because
Goose somehow still hasn't watched Clone Wars or what's the
one that I like more than Clone Wars that I
can't oh, Rebels, He hasn't watched either of these two
programs in which both especially later in Clone Wars, Darth
Maul plays a substantial role in and it was great
(19:46):
to redeem that character. Speaking of characters that need to
be redeemed from the prequel trilogy and now and we've
all felt it sort of too like there are mall
stories to be tell told because of the rise and
fall of him a couple of times here. So I
think you can get in some some real interesting territory
with Mal and operate in different parts of the Star
Wars universe with new characters. I hope it's great. I
(20:08):
bet it will be. A lot of their animated stuff
has been stronger than the live action stuff.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Also, at the Star Wars celebration, it was revealed that
Sean Levy's Star Wars will start shooting this fall. The
stars Ryan Gosling Mikey Madison did turn down a role
in this film. It'll be a standalone film set around
five to six years after episode nine, and it may
bring back some sequel trilogy characters.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
I think we can all agree that Ryan Gosling playing
like a cool pilot type character is gonna work. It
worked in Driver, it worked in Blade Runner twenty forty nine.
You know, he is a Han solo sort of personality.
I'm in if he's playing that type of character. And
it seems I think it's called Starfighter, right or something
like that, whatever the fuck it's supposed to be called.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Not in my notes, so I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I'm in now. But like, here's the give and take
with Star Wars, at least for me. If you give
me a one off, and I fucking love the character characters,
but it's just a one off, I get upset because
we don't have a trilogy.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
I was gonna ask you, are they gonna start testing
out a bunch of one offs, because you know how
we went a decade where they told us about one
hundred trilogies that they were gonna make, and they keep
on saying, no, never mind, why not you start making
the one offs? And if people like that one off,
then you make a trilogy.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah, I guess. But on the flip side, there have
been some one offs and some shows where I haven't
cared for stuff and I'm glad it's over. And so
I don't think we're necessarily getting into that with Gossling.
But like Sean Levy doesn't have the best track record,
you know, I don't know. I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
I love that he's in charge of its going from
one Ryan to another. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Also, I don't have this in my notes, but that
I read somewhere that they are gonna make something either
a television show or something animated that is something that
George Lucas was working on and now they're going to
take it and expand on it.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
And I haven't heard that either. I think again, there's
caveats here with Star Wars, Like, dude, if it's something
Lucas was working on, it's clearly tied to the Skywalkers, right,
And so do we still want to keep going back
to Skywalker saga stuff or do we want to keep
doing new stuff because the last couple of new stuff
we've gotten I've actually enjoyed more than most, but like
(22:29):
a lot of people don't like the new stuff, except
they were staying for years. We want new stuff.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
I'm telling you right now. If this is true, we
are getting closer to my prediction that George Lucas will
be running Star Wars again on Disney's dollar.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
He's too old.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Too old, you tell me. I'm too old to do
stuff too. And look at me. I was sick all
day yesterday and I'm dumping right now.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Look at you.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I think I died for a couple hours. It's crazy,
the best of us out of nowhere. I couldn't even walk,
it's even possible. Almost fell down the stairs. There's dump.
I've got a trailer for him. This is produced by
Jordan Peel and directed by Justin Tipping. This is a
(23:16):
football movie that appears to be about a prospect who
is looking to be drafted and Marlon Wayans is a
coach or a trainer of some sort, and it looks cool.
But then they bring in this goat creature. So are
they getting into like this weird demonic thing that you
(23:39):
have to sacrifice to get into the NFL? Because at
first I was thinking, like Playmakers on ESPN, maybe one
of the best shows of all times that they had
to stop making because the NFL said, you're a little
too close to what's actually happening.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
We don't want your alcohol strippers and concussions.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
But and then we get into like the demonic stuff,
and it's like, okay, so we're going down this route.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Well, so right, And there's been this discussion from Jordan
Peel himself and the internet, like, are all Jordan Peel
projects operating in the same world? Do they all exist
in the same world, the same reality now produced by
and directed by or different Jordan Peel things. Maybe I'm
not really sure, Like I I don't know. It's just
(24:25):
there's only so far I can stretch reality, right if
for some reason Get Out did it right, but US
didn't really, you know. And there's even though because US
was a further stretch. Now maybe this is a less
stretch kind of back to Get Out territory, but not
directed by Jordan Peele. So I don't know if it's
truly a Jordan Peel project, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
But his other movie Aliens with Cameras.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Aliens in the Sky with Diamonds.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, the cameras are the aliens and they're just trying
to trap you in there.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
N that's the movie. I forget.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
It was decent, but they talk about Chris Catan playing
among in it, so that really gets me going. If
they're making this and Jordan Peele is involved, at least
one player has to have a key and Peel football name.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
For sure, no doubt about. It has to.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Have off the top of your head, can you name
me one?
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Is it donkey sounds or donkey noise or something, I
don't know, donkey teeth something like that.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
They're all funny news dope. But our first trailer for
a Know What You Did Last Summer it's the same
title as the other one from nineteen ninety seven, but
Jennifer Love Hewett and Freddy Prince are still here. Yeah,
and a photo of Sarah Michelle Geller at her grave.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
I need the third act to be Jennifer lu Love
HEWITTT suiting up and some like leather bound sexy shit
with some weapons in her to just kill.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
What are the odds that j l H There we
go JLH or Freddie Prinz are the killer in this well?
Speaker 1 (25:57):
I hadn't thought about that. Freddy Prince more likely than
Jennifer Love HEWITTT. Don't you dare put that on Jeffer Love.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
I think you should go the Jennifer Love Hewitt route
and make the killers.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
But Scream hasn't done that in the requels.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Exactly, so they haven't done it. They should.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
No, they're just gonna copy Scream as they did thirty
years ago.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Most likely. I think the movies had the same writers.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Oh, it was the guy that wrote for the WP.
At some point, they need to cross Sidney Prescott over
with whatever the fuck Jennifer Love Hewitts care.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
So that might be what their end goal is here,
like make just enough movies so that they'll eventually cross.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
An alien predator AVP.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
News DEAP. Glenn Powell and Jude Apatow are working on
a comedy together at Universal Pictures. The plot centers are
on a country western star in a free fall.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
I guess Apatow can do that. I don't know if
I like this combo, but I like them both separately,
if that makes sense, you know, Like it's probably gonna
be too family friendly for what the story should be
because of Appatitle, But I like appatitl movies, so I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
I haven't loved Appatow movies the last couple times around.
But it's a good choice to grab on to this
shooting star.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Like country western star in a free fall. I'm thinking,
like a star is born. But obviously this isn't gonna
be as deep as that.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
It shouldn't be that. It should just be a comedy
that we all know will go on forty five minutes
too long. Yep, I say that in the most loving way.
I do like Jude Appatom movies. There's no I don't
quite understand this, and I'll take it as an insult.
Keanu Reeves has been cast as the villain in the
(27:43):
Weezer movie. This will be a mockumentary style film, described
as a cross between Scott Pilgrim Versus the World and
Weird the Al Yankovic story.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Are you a Weezer guy?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
I like early Weezer, but not enough to defend it.
Like even when they were at bos in Common and
we had passes, I didn't even go and see them.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
I oddly don't really love early Weezer. I like early
two thousand Sueezer.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
Beverly Hills that swhere I want, really, I have never
heard anyone claim that they prefer Beverly Hills Weezer.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
There you go. But that being said, but are you
for real right now? Well, I don't really like Weezer,
That's what I'm getting.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Well, mac eat is candy with pork and beans.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
I I don't know, first of all, even if you
do like Weezer, I don't think you'd be on board
with this this idea. I don't know if there's a
pop They're just simply not popular enough for this to happen.
And number two, Scott Pilgrim versus the world should like.
You can't really mimic that story in that movie. Even
the movie itself couldn't really mimic the comic uh weird.
(28:50):
The Alienkovich story was not good. It went too far.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
It was funny for the first half of it.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
It was not good. It wasn't a good one.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
But also it wasn't as good is Dewey Cox that
did a lot of the same stuff.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Yeah, and came out fifteen years prior.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And was way way better, way better. But also I
can't get over the fact that you just said you
prefer Beverly Hills Weezer.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Let's start that with the caveat is I don't really
like Weezer, so I like their pop more. I like
their more popish over their more rackish.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
I don't think anyone jumped on Weezer at that point,
being like, you know what, this sounds good me.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
I do like my name Jonas though my.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
Name is Jonas. Suzanne is my favorite of their songs. Okay,
You're all that I want in a girl. They did
a song like happy Days.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I'm gonna I'm gonna look up Weezer's Top five with
Spotify right now.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
News dump. We got some news on toy Story five.
It'll be a Jesse focus story and Ernie Hudson will
take over as something the role of combat Carl taken
over for Carl Weathers.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yes, Mac, I mean I think I was wrong about Weezer.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
After some extensive research called Google.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Say so is like one of my favorite songs in
all the time. So that's I don't care for Buddy
Holly though, Is that fair?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Okay, so just simple enough. You don't like Buddy Holly,
but you don't mind the rest of their cast.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I don't really like Island in the Sun either, so.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I guess I like Island in the Sun.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Yeah, I do like Beverly Hills. I don't know why
it's fucking annoying.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
It's not a good song.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
My name is Jonas and say It Ain't Sell are
two of my favorite songs of the last my whole lifetime.
So I don't know. I guess I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
How are you excited about the movie now? I don't
know what's happening.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Someone teaches me how to like Weezer. I guess.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
That could be a Weezer song. Someone teach me how
to love Weezer.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
And that you know. That's why I figured it out.
I don't actually like Weezer, now that you framed it
that way. I don't like Weezer, but I like I
love love two Weezer socks.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Have you seen the Matt Damon sketch on SNL when
it's him and Leslie Jones arguing about old Weezer versus
New Weezer. No, it's pretty good. It's not as good
as their Shrek sketch with Sterling K Brown yelling at
his in laws about how Shrek is the best animated
movie of all time, but it's in that same ilk.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Okay, got it?
Speaker 2 (31:11):
How'd you like that toy story? Five news?
Speaker 1 (31:14):
I don't know, like Toy Story four had no reason
to be as good as it was, and it was
really good, so I don't know it was.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
But I also, upon a rewatch, say, what was the
point of making this movie? I agree, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
And I think going in we sort of felt that
way and then it was fucking way better than any
business being. So I guess. I guess I'm like cautiously
optimistic on TS five.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I don't know Toys Verse machines. By the way, that's
what it is news DAP. Just this past week, cartoon
All Stars to the Rescue turned thirty five years old.
Back on April twenty first, nineteen ninety the special aired
on ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox, all at the same time,
telling kids don't do drugs. And I can tell you
(31:59):
this says someone who rented that movie that was brought
to VHS by McDonald and Bueno Vist the Home Entertainment
that I've never done heroin, So thank you.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Yeah, I guess, so, I guess. So.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
When McDonald's put the video together, they also put a
nice introduction at the front of the tape by George H. W. Bush,
Barbara Bush and their dog Millie.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
So I feel about Cartoon All Stars. I never was
aware of Cartoon All Stars until we started this podcast
and you introduced me to Cartoon All Stars. So I've
never seen it. I probably never.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Got a poster right there for it. I love it.
It's the greatest crossover event of all time.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
One would argue, I would say, what percentage of people
our age is aware of Cartoon All Stars ten years older?
I'm sure very aware. Our age not that aware.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
You never saw it during dare class?
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Never, not once.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
I saw it during DARE class. I saw it during
health class in middle school. And like I said, it
is the most rented movie of my lifetime at Blockbuster Video.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
How long is it?
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Thirty minutes, forty minutes, thirty two ish minutes, I believe. Okay,
Looney Tunes, Disney, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Yep, Smurfs, Michelangelo
alf they got one turtle, Yeah, they only needed one turtle.
You can't squeeze all four turtles in there. Okay, Muppet
babies and that's all off the top of my head.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Do you think they should run this back with Lego now?
Because Lego owns all these or has licenses for all
these ideas.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Now you only do that with stuff that needs improvements.
They kind of nailed it on their first shot. Yeah,
they nailed it on their first shot.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Do you think drug abuse has improved or declined since
April twenty first, nineteen ninety.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
So I would say that it probably improved for a
great period of time, but then as less people saw this,
it picked back up. H So you like, okay, so
like maybe you do this, but you just you dub
in a couple of lines of like, don't do fetanyl.
I don't know which character would say it.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
I would like a cartoon Dany DeVito to do that,
because that's what that sounds.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
So you bring in Phil the half goat man from Hercules,
or you bring in the coach from Looney Tunes Space Jam.
Those are two Danny DeVito voice characters. There you go,
you bring them both in and they have a discussion
like an extra scene, and they just talk about not
doing not doing eustasy. I always forget a mid log
(34:37):
if you will.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
What's epilogues after?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
I think, but like talk about some new trendy drugs
and just have a new Danny DeVito scene right in
the middle of all of his animated characters talking about it.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Or just have him and Charlie just not animated.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
But if you just bring in all of his animated characters,
you only have to pay one voice over a guy
and you're all set.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
If you if you had to do one drug right now,
what drug would you do?
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I'll tell you what it isn't it's heroin, and it's
because of this movie.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
I think ecstasy would be my answer.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
I think I would do advil, but only if I
had a full stomach.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
I think advill on like an everyday basis.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I do as only the bottle tells me.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Yeah, which is every day, every four to six hours.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
It was done. This just came in from Variety. Bill
Hayter and Daniel Zelman are currently developing an HBO series
centered on Jim Jones in the Infamous Events at the
People's Temple Agricultural Project aka Jonestown Haters. He is He's
(35:42):
eyed to potentially stars this as well, and Zelman is
known for his writing and production on Damage's Bloodline and
Fool's Gold, also previously married to Deborah Messing.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
That's how I would know, hims guy. I am in
on this and maybe this is why it shouldn't get made.
I am in on this. If there's a slightly comedic
spin on this story with Bill Hayder.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Kind of like Barry how there was a slightly comedic
spin on him murdering many of people.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
Yes, I need a slight comedic hinge in there that's like,
this is all preposterous, so let's make it mildly comedic.
I don't I don't condone all that many people dying,
but if we are going to do this story, that's
how I'd like it done.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
In the first episode of the Studio the New Seth
Rogan Show on Apple TV. Plus, I still have not
bought into my next couple episodes yet, so I'll check
those out eventually. Also, I didn't love the first episode.
But in the first episode, they had just gotten the
rights to the kool Aid Man or kool Aid as
a property to make a movie out of man. He
was also he was also going to talk to Martin
(36:49):
Scorsese about making a movie, and Scorsese wanted to make
a Jonestown movie and he was like, holy shit, we
can use kool Aid. We can make that the title
of it. But then they had to dump that because
the studio is like, we can't sell that, we can't
sell this. We also just talked to.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
To make like make it look like kool Aid's what
killed everyone in Jon's town.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
It's also gonna be like, you know, we have to
make billions of dollars and if you're making a raid
at our Jones down, you aren't gonna do.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
That, right.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
But an HBO series, maybe an HBO series. I'm in
newsed up HBO series Last of Us is back. I
still need to catch up. You are both episodes in.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
I've seen second episode twice now, and I never never rewatch.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
You rewatch something.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
I'll tell you what gou. I can't say it's the
best episode of television I've watched in a long time,
because I don't really know what that means. I will
say it is the episode of television that has most
made me feel like I was watching a movie since
Breaking Bad, probably, And you know I'm a throw I'm
not a Thrones guy, so you know, take that with
a grain of salt. I said, maybe it's fucking incredible.
(37:57):
It's like three tiered storytelling, characters and actions all being meaningful,
big action set piece that makes you feel like you're
in a movie. Also like, I don't know goo it's
it was a fantastic, fantastic episode of television, and I'm like,
so so, I'm not gonna spoil it for you. I
(38:19):
was aware loosely of what happens in the second game,
so I was expecting certain things for this season. After
this episode, I don't know how we're gonna proceed to
the next plot point. So I'm intrigued. It's just you
gotta watch it. You gotta watch it twice, maybe twice.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
Have you ever listened to the same song twice? Or
when you hear that all the time Beverly Hills, you say,
that's perfection. I don't need to hear it again, but
that please, there's dope
New Oscars rule seems obvious. I don't have a guy
fiery voice of really fucking this up?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
You know, why don't you start over again?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
It's fine to start over again real quick.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Winter Winter Sinner's Dinner.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
New Oscars rule seems obvious. Winter Winter Sinners Dinner. I
don't have this one either, Really, you really set the
site high. Pedtro Pascal is fifty and he can stretch.
Paul Rudd plays with Power Star Wars stuff and so
much more coming up this week. News dump.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Pedro Pascal is fifty and he can stratch.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
You expected too much out of me on this one.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Come on, this might be my best headlines yet of
having you play around.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
You had like three headlines and had two characterstributed.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Big news for you, mac over at Donald's. The chicken
tenders are back right now at select locations chickens select locations,
and it'll be nationwide on April twenty ninth, and the
snack rap will be back on the fourteenth of what
month we do not know yet.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
So two things here. McDonald's chicken tenders were never good,
but when they are dressed up as a snack wrap,
they are good. I don't know what happens in between
the tenders and the dressing. I'll fuck with a snack rap.
I used to have two or three for lunch back
in my poor days. You know. They were like one
ninety nine or like two twenty nine a pop, really
good value. I hope they're pretty much the same as
(01:38):
they were fifteen years ago. But I could fox with
a snack crap and like, it's a good quick thing,
you know, if you're like near McDonald's, Like sometimes six
chicken nuggets ain't gonna do it for you. Twenty is
too much, you know, it's nice snack crap.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Can just go ten? They have a ten option.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, I don't know about that.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I will say the easiest way to be a cool uncle,
bring over twenty nuggets.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
What about twenty snack craps.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
That's how you make friends, I will say. One of
my favorite parts. I used to live with one of
my cousins and he would just show up randomly, like, hey,
I got twenty five Taco Bell tacos.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
On the party pack.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah, you can have some if you want, Like, fuck.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
It, all right, I mean, I know you're not gonna
eat all twenty five, so I guess I will have some.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
You've given me no option news dope. The Academy Award
has announced that all members must watch all nominated movies
in each category to be eligible to vote at the Oscars.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah. This, if it wasn't obvious in years prior. They
outright had anonymous Oscar voters this year talking about how
they had not seen specific things and so they didn't
vote for them. And that's just you can't. That would
be like a baseball writer not voting for Shoho Tani
because he didn't watch one of his games, and you're like, yeah,
(02:58):
but you know he exists, and you know, ever else
says he's really good. So it's just ignorant, is what
it is. Go, And I know it's not the biggest
honor in the world to be able to vote on
the Oscars, but like take it a little seriously, you know,
like they're not asking to do all that fucking much.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
The Academy will start tracking viewing via members only Academy
Screening Room app. The Screening Room app. Also if you
see screenings film festivals, et cetera. Members will have to
fill out a form declaring when and where they watched
each film. MAC What this tells me. No, while they're
ninety seven and their ninety seven oscars in, is that
(03:35):
what it is?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
People could also not vote. That option exists as well.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
No, But so what I'm saying though, however many they
are in. Yeah, all previous oscars are bullshit.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You're putting an asterisk on all the prior oscars.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
There's no evidence that everyone who voted on each category
nomination has seen all the movies. This really gets into
like nineteen ninety four. You know, we all like Forrest Gump,
but there are better movies.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
No, that's what I mean. So, like, if it wasn't
obvious in the past that people weren't seeing the best
movies of the year, it became quite obvious, especially this
year when you have voters talking about it and I
don't even know, you know, maybe it was off the cuff.
It was certainly on the record because it was reported.
But you had multiple people talking about not seeing certain movies,
(04:24):
and it's like, that's fine. If you've only seen five
of the ten Best Picture nominies, don't vote. You don't
need to have a say.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Or people saying that they were voting for a specific
actor because they felt it was their time to win
their first Oscar when they had already won oscars.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
That so, yeah, that is dumb that the bias stuff
doesn't bother me as much, because that's inherent in every
voting you're gonna have with people when you when you're.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Out with the greatest fatigue. No, no, no, you vote
for whoever the best player is. Nikola Jokic is the
best player in the NBA, give him the NVP.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Bron James was for the ten years prior and the
only one what three four, you.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Know, Michael Jordan was every year in the nineties, and
they're like, you know what, let's give it to carm alone.
You can fill the statuets. Don't get me wrong, bad
guy fill the statuets though.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Yeah, but that's that's what I mean. Like the bias
comes into play, the narratives come into play, and it's
just it's just the way it is, especially when you
get in like to me at least, and I you know,
correct me if I'm wrong. You know you're never have,
never will good in both worlds here, and I think
as am i art is more objective than sports. So
(05:33):
sports usually it's a little more obvious when there's a
winner of something or more.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Well now, especially with movies or with the advanced stats.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, exactly, we can really like optimize how one can vote.
When it comes to movies, there is nothing like that.
There's no war for movies. Now. I'm sure some nerd
on the internet has come up with something, and I'd
love to see it.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I'm sure we can figure this out.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yeah, Like, you know, if a movie does lots of things, well,
i'm sure it's gonna have a high war. But you know,
it's I just think it's important that, like, if you're
given a vote, you should see everything that's just part
of it. Like, Okay, maybe it's two or three things
you don't want to watch or they're bad. The other
seventy to eighty percent is like the benefit of I
don't know, it's just I'm very bothered by this.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I'm sure the previous rule was, if you haven't seen
all the nominees, shut up, shut up, don't tell everybody,
don't explain yourself.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Yeah, say nothing.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
News Depp.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Over.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
At the box office, Sinners took home the top spot
with sixty one million dollars world wide. They was forty
five domestic, the highest grossing domestic imax opening ever for
a horror film. You just saw it? Is it a
horror film? Do you actually think that?
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah? So I have Also I have a couple issues
with the film. It's really fucking good.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I'm not asking you how good it is. I've seen
people debating if it was a horror movie, so.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
That's sort of what I'm getting at. You know, it's
clearly a vampire film. It's marketed as a vampire film.
How the vampires get brought into it is kind of
like shoehorned in and you just accept it because you
know going in it's gonna be a vampire film. But
if you went into that not knowing that, you'll probably
be like, what the fuck are we doing here? Because
is a great story and great characters already going on
(07:18):
separate from the vampire stuff, which is why I think
there's a good argument that it's not a horror movie.
There are horror elements, and there is blood and murder
and whatnot, but like the basis of the movie is
not horror oriented. It's just like a aspect of it.
So I could see I could see the argument for
it going either way. Like, I'm interestricted to talk about
(07:38):
it with you because I have listened to some of
what hashtag dork had to say. You know, keeps the
king of recency bias. He thinks the Graces movie all time,
and Ryan Davy also really enjoyed it, as did I.
But we get to, I think, break stuff down a
little more minutely having forty rungs where they have six,
so I never know, we're like a five and a
(07:59):
half on the dorks scale ends dogwise and it six
begins because I'm sure not all six out of six
movies or forty doggers, you know what I mean. So
I'm interested to eventually talk to you about this, hopefully
in a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
If you have a good shoehorn, the shoe goes on
real easy.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
That's true. That is true. It's a great point about shoehorns.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Minecraft came in second at forty six million seven to
twenty three worldwide.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
I also do not not that this affects the movie,
but it's just I'll probably never go back there. I
saw sinners at the Chestnut Hills super Lux. Super Luxes
are not for me. I don't need a fucking full meal.
I was in a somewhat full theater on a fucking
Wednesday afternoon. Somehow everyone's getting meals. Everyone's using their flashlight
to see worth their meals. Like. It's just it's not
(08:42):
the theater experience for me. I get why it's there,
but I just give me some fucking popcorn. Get out
of my way, stay two seats away from me. That's
my theory experience.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I've never seen Mack eat real food at a movie theater, never,
But all the screeners that we've seen brag while I'm
over there hogging down some burritos. Max over there sit
and saying I don't want to poop my pants.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
And I don't even eat popcorn during the movie. I
eat it during the previews and then I'm done. I
put it away. Every once in a while, I'll dabble
back in if I get a real itch, but I
get popcorn. I eat it in like the ten to
fifteen minutes during the previews, and then I'm done with it. It
goes off to the side. So I especially don't want
to sit next to a guy eating wings while I'm
watching Sinners.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
If I started my own movie theater, I think one
of the options I would put in play is a
troft of popcorn, like you can just put it right
in front of you and have it up high enough
so that if you don't want to use your hands,
you can just stick your face right in there.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Okay, there's the thought.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
And then you have a you know how in a
hamster wheel they have that water thing. Every theater has
its own like a hose that can drop down anywhere
and just put more popcorn in there if you get
the troft as much popcorn as you.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Want, Like if you brought someone on a date dinner
in a movie and you fed them movie theater dinner.
I don't think that's a very good idea.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Right, But if you feed them a trought of popcorn,
we're getting laid Yeah, news dope. Speaking of sinners, Ryan Coogler,
the director and writer of said film, confirms that an
X Files reboot is his next project, saying to last
pot on the left, Dan, that's a fucking good name.
(10:22):
Macn Do such a bad fuing name. But he said,
I'm fired up to go back to it, or to
get back to it. If we do our jobs right,
it's will be really fucking scary.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
So the nice thing about this movie and what it
means for the X Files is the X Files just
like scary, but it's also not like full on horror.
And I also feel that Sinners has a bit that
So this is like proof of concept that Couglar can
do that, not that we doubted that Cougar couldn't do it.
I say I think like, honestly, after watching this movie,
(10:56):
if you've seen all of other Cougar's movies, you're just like, yeah,
give him the keys, let him do it he wants.
He's one of the now three or four directors in
Hollywood that you're like, all right, I'm gonna see whatever
he's doing. Michael b included or not.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
There's nope, gott They are full. This is a full trailer.
The first one was more of a teaser. Correct for
the Fantastic Four.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
It seems we have a little bit more of a
storyline put together here and they're actually talking about the
pregnancy out loud now.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Talking about the pregnancy. It shows all four characters using
their abilities, using their powers, hence in the sweet headlines
that Pedro Pascal is fifty years old exactly and he
can thratch. We see Galactus walking around, and we also
see after the Silver Surfer has themselves a Capri's Sun
(11:45):
looking real shiny.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, I don't know what people expected Silver Server to
look like. I mean, that's what Silver Server looks like.
It's just not a great character designed just is what
it is. I'm pretty confident now that Galactus is coming
to Earth to kill Franklin Richards, son of Sue and Reed. Now,
if you don't know who Franklin Richards is, you should
(12:08):
start googling him because he's a massively powerful character that
has a lot of ramifications in the MCU. I'm pretty
convinced that's what this is gonna be. And in order
to escape that, they have to jump out of that universe.
That's my guess as to what's gonna happen and how
they get brought into our MCU or and sort of
to survive. I guess like Glactus will devour that world
they come into our MCU sort of stuff. The characters
(12:31):
seem like spot on the four Fantastic Four characters seem
really well done, and I'm just looking. I love we
know you know you and I we love a good
group dynamic as much as we love solo adventures like
Guardians is our favorite shit for a reason. You know,
the team ups are always good. This is a new
team up for us, so this is this is just
gonna be fun.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I will say this, though, maybe it's because of what
we just got with Captain America the last movie, and
maybe the over build up of these next couple movies.
I'm not very excited right now for MCU.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Okay, well, I'm looking forward to both this and Thunderbolts,
so I'm opposite of you, I suppose.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Speaking of Thunderbolts, News Dope screenings have begun, and so
have spoilers circulating on the interwebs. So if you are
looking to avoid those, start muting on x now and
avoid Reddit.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I'm too deep on the internet. I'm on the internet
too often to avoid these, so i haven't seen them yet,
but I'm sure the minute we finished recording, the first
thing that I'll pop up and reddit or on Twitter
is one of these spoilers.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
News Dope Anthony Mackie said that Avengers Doomsday will end
with the cliffhanger, also saying that no one is safe,
everyone is expendable. This is via Collider. He also said
with dooms Day, it is going to give the audience
that old Marble feeling that they always had. That's via
(13:59):
ign the first part.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Everyone's expendable, no one's safe. It's gonna know a cliffinger.
We all knew that. That seems a real fact, a
fake fact. Gu and his opinion more and moreover seems
to be that it's gonna give us this old marble feeling.
That's our hope, that's our desire. I don't know if
that's actually gonna happen, but the other stuff, for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I feel like he said that about the last Captain
America movie. Isn't that one of his quotes?
Speaker 1 (14:23):
He might have just copied and pasted.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
This, copied and paste all of his projects. He always
puts that on there.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
He's gonna note sappen, He's would you guys, you can
hold on one.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Yeah, because I've also seen rumblings that they are working
on a way to give Thor a classy uh maybe
not death, but way out of this franchise.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, you have to imagine the biggest stars here still left,
Chris Emsworth, Beneger kulor Batch. They're gonna see themselves out
of the MCU in short order, you know, one or
two appearances left.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Probably because they're also getting too expensive for them to
keep around for sure.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
For sure. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Speaking of someone that could be in a future Avengers
film or his future Spider Man movie is Andrew Garfield,
who does want to return as the character again. Peter Parker,
he played the character in the Amazing Spider Man Movie,
saying it would have to be very weird. I think
I would like to do something very strange. Is a
(15:23):
hinting toward a character. I would want to do something
very unique, offbeat and surprising.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
I think the time has passed for me personally. I
love Andrew Garfield.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
There was a very small window that you were all
the way back in on Andrew Garfield as Spider Man.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
And now it's like, where are we gonna go? Like,
we already have so many Spider Man projects operating like
adjacent to the MCU. We do not need an additional one.
We just don't. And we all love Spider Man, we
just don't need another one.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
I also just thought about this the other day. It's
crazy that No Way Home came out four years ago,
five years ago.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Somewhere around there anyone, I think, Yeah, yeah, it's a
long time ago.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
We'reladi in the year twenty thirty three. News Denn speaking
of twenty thirty three. Back in nineteen ninety one, Paul
Rudd was in a sness commercial super Nintendo, playing the
Legend of Zelda a Link to the Past, and as
they are revealing a new upcoming console, Nintendo brought back
(16:26):
Paul Rudd, who hasn't aged a day since he recorded that.
He looks a little old now, but they brought him
back to recreate the commercial, playing Mario Karts with a
couple friends. And he's got the long hair in a
cool jacket or shirt whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I mean something. If they're grabbing Paul Rudd to recreate
thirty five year old commercials, you know, numbers aren't good
On Nintendo's end, They're like, oh, we gotta fucking goose
this up.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
We got the people aren't happy with what we've done.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Yeah, so I think that says all you need to know.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
We can tell you from our TikTok. People are not
happy with Nintendo.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
People hate Nintendo. People hate this rollout.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
And because we even talked about it, people are mad.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
They all hate us now too.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah people always hated us anyways, that's true. But uh yeah,
I like the Legend of Zelda A link to the
past one of my favorite Zelda's I'm not I you
know you don't like Zelda.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I'm okay with Zelda. It's not my favorite. Did you
ever play Breath of the Wild?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Yeah? I loved it?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
People what nuts for it? Didn't care for it.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
I loved Breath of the Wild. They didn't get a
chance to play that sequel. But by the way, they
should have held that sequel for Switch Too. Correct.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I bet there was rumblings of that, and now instead
they'll just roll out another Mario Kart or another Mario party.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
You know. By bringing back Paul Rudd for this commercial,
it just made me think, why would you call it
switch to and not just call it super Switch, which
then lets you know that it's better than the original Switch?
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah, because now it's just switch. Also, Yeah, what's.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
A better name than Ezra? Better than Ezra?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
News dep Star Wars celebrated their Star Wars celebration. Stup
the Disney Star Wars marble. Too many celebrations. Let's pick
one day a year because May the fourth is coming up.
They're gonna do stuff for that too.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, we're on our what twentieth anniversary of Revenge of
the sist, which I think we'll talk about in the
next week or two. Hayden Christensten notoriously hated from the
original Trilloy.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
No, everyone loves him now.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
He's come back. He's people have restored him somehow, some
way him himself as well. I think people just feel
bad they had regrets.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
No, but he is, somehow, some way the ambassador to
this franchise.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
I know, it's weird. It's bizarre because everyone he cut
back to two thousand and five, two thousand and seven, like,
no one wanted Hayden Christian anywhere near Star Wars and
it's changed. Ah happy for him, happy for his career.
I'm happy to see him back as Anna can and
it's such a great character.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
So yeah, he's returning for Ahsoka too. And he's also
talked about there's a lot more Darth Vader stories to tell,
and he would like to dive into that. But I mean,
if you're just doing Darth Vader, do you need him?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
How interesting is a Darth Vader story really? Too, he's
just gonna maul everyone.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
No, he's pretty fucking sweet. He's pretty fucking great. Speaking
of mal are getting you tell me an animated show.
This is shadow Lord Mal, tell me about it, big dog, I.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Don't know much about it. I do know, uh, because
Goose somehow still hasn't watched Clone Wars or what's the
one that I like more than Clone Wars that I
can't oh, Rebels, He hasn't watched either of these two
programs in which both especially later in Clone Wars, Darth
Maul plays a substantial role in and it was great
(19:46):
to redeem that character. Speaking of characters that need to
be redeemed from the prequel trilogy and now and we've
all felt it sort of too like there are mall
stories to be tell told because of the rise and
fall of him a couple of times here. So I
think you can get in some some real interesting territory
with Mal and operate in different parts of the Star
Wars universe with new characters. I hope it's great. I
(20:08):
bet it will be. A lot of their animated stuff
has been stronger than the live action stuff.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Also, at the Star Wars celebration, it was revealed that
Sean Levy's Star Wars will start shooting this fall. The
stars Ryan Gosling Mikey Madison did turn down a role
in this film. It'll be a standalone film set around
five to six years after episode nine, and it may
bring back some sequel trilogy characters.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
I think we can all agree that Ryan Gosling playing
like a cool pilot type character is gonna work. It
worked in Driver, it worked in Blade Runner twenty forty nine.
You know, he is a Han solo sort of personality.
I'm in if he's playing that type of character. And
it seems I think it's called Starfighter, right or something
like that, whatever the fuck it's supposed to be called.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Not in my notes, so I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I'm in now. But like, here's the give and take
with Star Wars, at least for me. If you give
me a one off, and I fucking love the character characters,
but it's just a one off, I get upset because
we don't have a trilogy.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
I was gonna ask you, are they gonna start testing
out a bunch of one offs, because you know how
we went a decade where they told us about one
hundred trilogies that they were gonna make, and they keep
on saying, no, never mind, why not you start making
the one offs? And if people like that one off,
then you make a trilogy.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah, I guess. But on the flip side, there have
been some one offs and some shows where I haven't
cared for stuff and I'm glad it's over. And so
I don't think we're necessarily getting into that with Gossling.
But like Sean Levy doesn't have the best track record,
you know, I don't know. I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
I love that he's in charge of its going from
one Ryan to another. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Also, I don't have this in my notes, but that
I read somewhere that they are gonna make something either
a television show or something animated that is something that
George Lucas was working on and now they're going to
take it and expand on it.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
And I haven't heard that either. I think again, there's
caveats here with Star Wars, Like, dude, if it's something
Lucas was working on, it's clearly tied to the Skywalkers, right,
And so do we still want to keep going back
to Skywalker saga stuff or do we want to keep
doing new stuff because the last couple of new stuff
we've gotten I've actually enjoyed more than most, but like
(22:29):
a lot of people don't like the new stuff, except
they were staying for years. We want new stuff.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
I'm telling you right now. If this is true, we
are getting closer to my prediction that George Lucas will
be running Star Wars again on Disney's dollar.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
He's too old.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Too old, you tell me. I'm too old to do
stuff too. And look at me. I was sick all
day yesterday and I'm dumping right now.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Look at you.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I think I died for a couple hours. It's crazy,
the best of us out of nowhere. I couldn't even walk,
it's even possible. Almost fell down the stairs. There's dump.
I've got a trailer for him. This is produced by
Jordan Peel and directed by Justin Tipping. This is a
(23:16):
football movie that appears to be about a prospect who
is looking to be drafted and Marlon Wayans is a
coach or a trainer of some sort, and it looks cool.
But then they bring in this goat creature. So are
they getting into like this weird demonic thing that you
(23:39):
have to sacrifice to get into the NFL? Because at
first I was thinking, like Playmakers on ESPN, maybe one
of the best shows of all times that they had
to stop making because the NFL said, you're a little
too close to what's actually happening.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
We don't want your alcohol strippers and concussions.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
But and then we get into like the demonic stuff,
and it's like, okay, so we're going down this route.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Well, so right, And there's been this discussion from Jordan
Peel himself and the internet, like, are all Jordan Peel
projects operating in the same world? Do they all exist
in the same world, the same reality now produced by
and directed by or different Jordan Peel things. Maybe I'm
not really sure, Like I I don't know. It's just
(24:25):
there's only so far I can stretch reality, right if
for some reason Get Out did it right, but US
didn't really, you know. And there's even though because US
was a further stretch. Now maybe this is a less
stretch kind of back to Get Out territory, but not
directed by Jordan Peele. So I don't know if it's
truly a Jordan Peel project, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
But his other movie Aliens with Cameras.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Aliens in the Sky with Diamonds.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, the cameras are the aliens and they're just trying
to trap you in there.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
N that's the movie. I forget.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
It was decent, but they talk about Chris Catan playing
among in it, so that really gets me going. If
they're making this and Jordan Peele is involved, at least
one player has to have a key and Peel football name.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
For sure, no doubt about. It has to.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Have off the top of your head, can you name
me one?
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Is it donkey sounds or donkey noise or something, I
don't know, donkey teeth something like that.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
They're all funny news dope. But our first trailer for
a Know What You Did Last Summer it's the same
title as the other one from nineteen ninety seven, but
Jennifer Love Hewett and Freddy Prince are still here. Yeah,
and a photo of Sarah Michelle Geller at her grave.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
I need the third act to be Jennifer lu Love
HEWITTT suiting up and some like leather bound sexy shit
with some weapons in her to just kill.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
What are the odds that j l H There we
go JLH or Freddie Prinz are the killer in this well?
Speaker 1 (25:57):
I hadn't thought about that. Freddy Prince more likely than
Jennifer Love HEWITTT. Don't you dare put that on Jeffer Love.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
I think you should go the Jennifer Love Hewitt route
and make the killers.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
But Scream hasn't done that in the requels.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Exactly, so they haven't done it. They should.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
No, they're just gonna copy Scream as they did thirty
years ago.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Most likely. I think the movies had the same writers.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Oh, it was the guy that wrote for the WP.
At some point, they need to cross Sidney Prescott over
with whatever the fuck Jennifer Love Hewitts care.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
So that might be what their end goal is here,
like make just enough movies so that they'll eventually cross.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
An alien predator AVP.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
News DEAP. Glenn Powell and Jude Apatow are working on
a comedy together at Universal Pictures. The plot centers are
on a country western star in a free fall.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
I guess Apatow can do that. I don't know if
I like this combo, but I like them both separately,
if that makes sense, you know, Like it's probably gonna
be too family friendly for what the story should be
because of Appatitle, But I like appatitl movies, so I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
I haven't loved Appatow movies the last couple times around.
But it's a good choice to grab on to this
shooting star.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Like country western star in a free fall. I'm thinking,
like a star is born. But obviously this isn't gonna
be as deep as that.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
It shouldn't be that. It should just be a comedy
that we all know will go on forty five minutes
too long. Yep, I say that in the most loving way.
I do like Jude Appatom movies. There's no I don't
quite understand this, and I'll take it as an insult.
Keanu Reeves has been cast as the villain in the
(27:43):
Weezer movie. This will be a mockumentary style film, described
as a cross between Scott Pilgrim Versus the World and
Weird the Al Yankovic story.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Are you a Weezer guy?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
I like early Weezer, but not enough to defend it.
Like even when they were at bos in Common and
we had passes, I didn't even go and see them.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
I oddly don't really love early Weezer. I like early
two thousand Sueezer.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
Beverly Hills that swhere I want, really, I have never
heard anyone claim that they prefer Beverly Hills Weezer.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
There you go. But that being said, but are you
for real right now? Well, I don't really like Weezer,
That's what I'm getting.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Well, mac eat is candy with pork and beans.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
I I don't know, first of all, even if you
do like Weezer, I don't think you'd be on board
with this this idea. I don't know if there's a
pop They're just simply not popular enough for this to happen.
And number two, Scott Pilgrim versus the world should like.
You can't really mimic that story in that movie. Even
the movie itself couldn't really mimic the comic uh weird.
(28:50):
The Alienkovich story was not good. It went too far.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
It was funny for the first half of it.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
It was not good. It wasn't a good one.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
But also it wasn't as good is Dewey Cox that
did a lot of the same stuff.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Yeah, and came out fifteen years prior.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And was way way better, way better. But also I
can't get over the fact that you just said you
prefer Beverly Hills Weezer.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Let's start that with the caveat is I don't really
like Weezer, so I like their pop more. I like
their more popish over their more rackish.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
I don't think anyone jumped on Weezer at that point,
being like, you know what, this sounds good me.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
I do like my name Jonas though my.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
Name is Jonas. Suzanne is my favorite of their songs. Okay,
You're all that I want in a girl. They did
a song like happy Days.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I'm gonna I'm gonna look up Weezer's Top five with
Spotify right now.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
News dump. We got some news on toy Story five.
It'll be a Jesse focus story and Ernie Hudson will
take over as something the role of combat Carl taken
over for Carl Weathers.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yes, Mac, I mean I think I was wrong about Weezer.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
After some extensive research called Google.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Say so is like one of my favorite songs in
all the time. So that's I don't care for Buddy
Holly though, Is that fair?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Okay, so just simple enough. You don't like Buddy Holly,
but you don't mind the rest of their cast.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I don't really like Island in the Sun either, so.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I guess I like Island in the Sun.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Yeah, I do like Beverly Hills. I don't know why
it's fucking annoying.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
It's not a good song.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
My name is Jonas and say It Ain't Sell are
two of my favorite songs of the last my whole lifetime.
So I don't know. I guess I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
How are you excited about the movie now? I don't
know what's happening.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Someone teaches me how to like Weezer. I guess.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
That could be a Weezer song. Someone teach me how
to love Weezer.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
And that you know. That's why I figured it out.
I don't actually like Weezer, now that you framed it
that way. I don't like Weezer, but I like I
love love two Weezer socks.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Have you seen the Matt Damon sketch on SNL when
it's him and Leslie Jones arguing about old Weezer versus
New Weezer. No, it's pretty good. It's not as good
as their Shrek sketch with Sterling K Brown yelling at
his in laws about how Shrek is the best animated
movie of all time, but it's in that same ilk.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Okay, got it?
Speaker 2 (31:11):
How'd you like that toy story? Five news?
Speaker 1 (31:14):
I don't know, like Toy Story four had no reason
to be as good as it was, and it was
really good, so I don't know it was.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
But I also, upon a rewatch, say, what was the
point of making this movie? I agree, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
And I think going in we sort of felt that
way and then it was fucking way better than any
business being. So I guess. I guess I'm like cautiously
optimistic on TS five.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I don't know Toys Verse machines. By the way, that's
what it is news DAP. Just this past week, cartoon
All Stars to the Rescue turned thirty five years old.
Back on April twenty first, nineteen ninety the special aired
on ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox, all at the same time,
telling kids don't do drugs. And I can tell you
(31:59):
this says someone who rented that movie that was brought
to VHS by McDonald and Bueno Vist the Home Entertainment
that I've never done heroin, So thank you.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Yeah, I guess, so, I guess. So.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
When McDonald's put the video together, they also put a
nice introduction at the front of the tape by George H. W. Bush,
Barbara Bush and their dog Millie.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
So I feel about Cartoon All Stars. I never was
aware of Cartoon All Stars until we started this podcast
and you introduced me to Cartoon All Stars. So I've
never seen it. I probably never.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Got a poster right there for it. I love it.
It's the greatest crossover event of all time.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
One would argue, I would say, what percentage of people
our age is aware of Cartoon All Stars ten years older?
I'm sure very aware. Our age not that aware.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
You never saw it during dare class?
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Never, not once.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
I saw it during DARE class. I saw it during
health class in middle school. And like I said, it
is the most rented movie of my lifetime at Blockbuster Video.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
How long is it?
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Thirty minutes, forty minutes, thirty two ish minutes, I believe. Okay,
Looney Tunes, Disney, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Yep, Smurfs, Michelangelo
alf they got one turtle, Yeah, they only needed one turtle.
You can't squeeze all four turtles in there. Okay, Muppet
babies and that's all off the top of my head.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Do you think they should run this back with Lego now?
Because Lego owns all these or has licenses for all
these ideas.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Now you only do that with stuff that needs improvements.
They kind of nailed it on their first shot. Yeah,
they nailed it on their first shot.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Do you think drug abuse has improved or declined since
April twenty first, nineteen ninety.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
So I would say that it probably improved for a
great period of time, but then as less people saw this,
it picked back up. H So you like, okay, so
like maybe you do this, but you just you dub
in a couple of lines of like, don't do fetanyl.
I don't know which character would say it.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
I would like a cartoon Dany DeVito to do that,
because that's what that sounds.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
So you bring in Phil the half goat man from Hercules,
or you bring in the coach from Looney Tunes Space Jam.
Those are two Danny DeVito voice characters. There you go,
you bring them both in and they have a discussion
like an extra scene, and they just talk about not
doing not doing eustasy. I always forget a mid log
(34:37):
if you will.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
What's epilogues after?
Speaker 2 (34:39):
I think, but like talk about some new trendy drugs
and just have a new Danny DeVito scene right in
the middle of all of his animated characters talking about it.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Or just have him and Charlie just not animated.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
But if you just bring in all of his animated characters,
you only have to pay one voice over a guy
and you're all set.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
If you if you had to do one drug right now,
what drug would you do?
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I'll tell you what it isn't it's heroin, and it's
because of this movie.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
I think ecstasy would be my answer.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
I think I would do advil, but only if I
had a full stomach.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
I think advill on like an everyday basis.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
I do as only the bottle tells me.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Yeah, which is every day, every four to six hours.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
It was done. This just came in from Variety. Bill
Hayter and Daniel Zelman are currently developing an HBO series
centered on Jim Jones in the Infamous Events at the
People's Temple Agricultural Project aka Jonestown Haters. He is He's
(35:42):
eyed to potentially stars this as well, and Zelman is
known for his writing and production on Damage's Bloodline and
Fool's Gold, also previously married to Deborah Messing.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
That's how I would know, hims guy. I am in
on this and maybe this is why it shouldn't get made.
I am in on this. If there's a slightly comedic
spin on this story with Bill Hayder.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Kind of like Barry how there was a slightly comedic
spin on him murdering many of people.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
Yes, I need a slight comedic hinge in there that's like,
this is all preposterous, so let's make it mildly comedic.
I don't I don't condone all that many people dying,
but if we are going to do this story, that's
how I'd like it done.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
In the first episode of the Studio the New Seth
Rogan Show on Apple TV. Plus, I still have not
bought into my next couple episodes yet, so I'll check
those out eventually. Also, I didn't love the first episode.
But in the first episode, they had just gotten the
rights to the kool Aid Man or kool Aid as
a property to make a movie out of man. He
was also he was also going to talk to Martin
(36:49):
Scorsese about making a movie, and Scorsese wanted to make
a Jonestown movie and he was like, holy shit, we
can use kool Aid. We can make that the title
of it. But then they had to dump that because
the studio is like, we can't sell that, we can't
sell this. We also just talked to.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
To make like make it look like kool Aid's what
killed everyone in Jon's town.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
It's also gonna be like, you know, we have to
make billions of dollars and if you're making a raid
at our Jones down, you aren't gonna do.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
That, right.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
But an HBO series, maybe an HBO series. I'm in
newsed up HBO series Last of Us is back. I
still need to catch up. You are both episodes in.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
I've seen second episode twice now, and I never never rewatch.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
You rewatch something.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
I'll tell you what gou. I can't say it's the
best episode of television I've watched in a long time,
because I don't really know what that means. I will
say it is the episode of television that has most
made me feel like I was watching a movie since
Breaking Bad, probably, And you know I'm a throw I'm
not a Thrones guy, so you know, take that with
a grain of salt. I said, maybe it's fucking incredible.
(37:57):
It's like three tiered storytelling, characters and actions all being meaningful,
big action set piece that makes you feel like you're
in a movie. Also like, I don't know goo it's
it was a fantastic, fantastic episode of television, and I'm like,
so so, I'm not gonna spoil it for you. I
(38:19):
was aware loosely of what happens in the second game,
so I was expecting certain things for this season. After
this episode, I don't know how we're gonna proceed to
the next plot point. So I'm intrigued. It's just you
gotta watch it. You gotta watch it twice, maybe twice.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
Have you ever listened to the same song twice? Or
when you hear that all the time Beverly Hills, you say,
that's perfection. I don't need to hear it again, but
that please, there's dope
