Speaker 1 (00:00):
F one opens this weekend, but will F two be
a crossover? Dniva Nub was about to create a relationship
between people or groups based on sheared feelings, interests, or experiences.
Oh I missed the Punisha, You just blew up the
chap's head. Clear off. This is Johnny Knoxville. Welcome to
Fear Factor. And I haven't seen Toy story five through

(00:20):
twenty six yet. All that and more this week on Newstone.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
All of that and so much more. But first, mac,
I once again, second straight summer. Every time I go
into a pool, brag water in my ear, every water
in my ear, single time. The whole bucket sea number one.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
Maybe you're worst effort for headlines yet I even offered
to right headlines. You said, no, no, no, I've got headlines.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
I think as people get into the episodesha, So what's
good about the headlines is like, right now, they might
not seem great, but within like thirty minutes, you'll understand
all of them and you'll appreciate them.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
I don't understand. I like, you grew up with a
pool in your backyard, So have you ever had swimmers here?
Or you never water?

Speaker 2 (01:12):
This never happens to me it's just out of nowhere
the last two years. Okay, So let's talk about remedies.
Let's talk about getting water out of your ear.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
A Black Crows song remedy.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
There's alcohol, there is that swimmer's ear medication you can
put in there. There is gravity, just let the water
fall out. Also there is the and you always tell
me this, you're a firefighter, don't fight fire with fire,
but you put more water in your ear to get
the water out. It's a real Cat in the Wall situation.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
First of all, I don't know if you were present.
This sort of blew my mind the other night. So
I missed the dork extravaganza, or should I say the
fits the extravaganza. He told the story that one of
his childhood friends wrote the always Sonny episode about Cat
in the Wall based off of fits the experience.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
You know, it's weird, is I was just thinking about
that earlier, and I'm like, where did I hear this
story on a random podcast?

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:08):
It was the podcast I was sitting at.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
But that episode of Sonny is what got me to
watch Sonny And I was like, whoa, this is like
a real full circle moment. This is kind of crazeou
So that was that was a fun story to hear.
I think, can't you do the little the little rubbing alcohol,
Tilt the ear up, pull it a little rubbing alcohol
in and.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
I'm gonna have to put drops in my ear again?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
I think I've never had this problem go, so I don't.
I don't have a remedy.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
I had never had it prior to last year, and
then out of nowhere, it is every single time. And
at our age, at our advanced age, I am also
petrified to like throw my neck around to try and
get it out because I don't want to hurt my
neck or my back.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Now, well that's what we got doctor Joe there for,
you know. Also extreme extreme first world problem.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
A lot in my Oh yeah, okay, so mac Mac,
letting me ask you what is my job?

Speaker 1 (03:07):
You are a radio error, that's what they call it.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Yes, I am a producer at a radio station. Where
what do I need for eight hours a day?

Speaker 1 (03:19):
A chair? No?

Speaker 2 (03:20):
I need my ears?

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Ear? You just need ear.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
This is like the Twilight Zone with the guy who
wants to read and then as glasses break, My ears
are my glasses.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
He needs his glasses. So did you have you did
you stick a Q tip in there?

Speaker 2 (03:35):
I have done everything but the alcohol so far after work,
and then I'm gonna go buy the alcohol medication toss
it in there.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
You don't have the little brown bottle in your medicine cabin.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Also, there's I'll tell you what there's. There's been a
fight against Q tips the last ten twenty years. But
don't think the C tip in your ear. It's bad
for your ear. I'll tell you what. I got cleanest
ear drums on the East Coast. I use CE tips
every time I get out of the shower.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
So two things. Number one, my hearing right now, it
sounds like you know when you wear an air pod,
but you don't have any of like the music on,
so it's.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
No exactly what it's the noise pulling in air.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Yeah, that's what my ear constantly sounds like right now,
left air, right ear, left ear, And that's my listening hear,
that's my good listening year. And then also, uh, speaking
of the Q tips, whenever I pull an air pod
out of my ear, I'm like, that's fucking disgusting.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
And it's fun cleaning headphones too. Please, some people don't
do that please clean your fucking headphones. Also, have you
considered just letting your wife slap the shit out of
you on your like in your earhole air after.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
A one time thing. We put an end to that, news, dope, mac,
I saw this. The AMC website now prominently displays a
reminder that all show times come with twenty five to
thirty minutes of previews.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
So thank you for some slight honesty here. I would
just like the exact number, number one, number two. This
is excessive. So my home theater, you know it. Well,
it's probably closer to your house it is to mine,
maybe about halfway. They average probably about ten minutes of previews.
What they do, they don't tell you the amount of

(05:21):
time there's gonna be previews. However, you get the start time,
and then when you're booking on the app or the site,
it tells you the time the movie's gonna end, so
you can deduce how long the previews are gonna be.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Too much math, that's too much math, Yeah, but I agree.
So I do like the window or it tells you
twenty five to thirty, but I don't like the window.
I want you to tell me the exact time.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, tell me twenty six minutes.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, and I'll pop in there at twenty five.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
To me, it's just disingenuous even still, because you're still
going to list the start time as eleven thirty even
though it's actually twelve. So just list the start time
the real start time, and when people show up, they'll
show up. You're not like we're in a day and age.
We're preview before movie in the theater pretty much mean
nothing because we're seeing these trailers online well before we're
seeing them in the theater.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Also, and you know, not to put this idea into
the theater's minds, but I think you're better off adding
an intermission and showing fifteen minutes of trailers in that intermission.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I do think that at a certain point, or like
once a movie reaches a certain length, you could consider
having an intermission. But that's you. You're you're a little
bladder boy.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
I can never heed during a movie, and I drink
water and I eat the Britos during every movie. You uh,
three hours prior to a movie, I can't eat any food.
I don't want to do poops during a movie.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah, that's pre planning good, That's that's a plus. Pre
planning right there. I'm not gonna eat before the movie
and then have to ship my brains out. I've witnessed
you get up and pee and or poop during a movie.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
That was during Wicked. You weren't there. That's also because
I was super bored.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
I don't know where the break even thing is for
like an intermission. To me, you'd have to be at
least two and a half three hours to consider it.
But like, if you can't go three hours without using
the bathroom, maybe just don't go out in public. Just
buy some dipies like that uh astronaut that was gonna
kill that guy.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Oh cheez. Mac News dipe opening over at the theaters
this weekend, we've got a double header. Let's first take
a look at m Threagan two point zero and the
first one made a good amount of money ninety five domestic,
one eighty worldwide. This one is projected opening weekend to

(07:34):
make eighteen to twenty five. I for the first time
watched the entire trailer yesterday, trying to cut it up
and do a work thing with it, and this looks
like pure nonsense.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
I had zero desire to see the first one. I
remember people coming away from the first one being like, ah,
that was better than I anticipated. I have even less
desire to see this one. Now they're doing an okay
job marketing it. I think there really playing into their crowd.
I just have absolutely no and Goo, I'm starting to
think of just not a horror movie guy anymore. Like

(08:08):
I think you and I both for a while, especially
the classic stuff we loved. It's rare that I really
love a horror movie these days. It's just really I
guess not what I'm looking for.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
And what did you see last night? And you called
the best movie of the year.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
I saw a couple of days ago and it was
twenty eight years later and it was fucking phenomenal.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
What genre would you classify it as.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
It's yeah, it's borderline horror. It's like survivalist still, which
is It's like, so that's like, I guess it is
a horror but which is why like twenty eight weeks
Later is so great because it's definitely like in the
horror genre, but it's like the horror is like a
side piece to the whole thing, you know, And that's why,
like we let the Last of Us in HBM, because

(08:49):
the horror is like a side piece to the actual story.
It's great story. So this is a reindorsement, by the way,
because I actually don't feel like a ton of people
have seen twenty eight years later, which maybe we'll get
to next week on as well. One it's on the
short list for best movies of the year. If you
still prefer sinners. By all means, I know there's a
certain segment out there, like you and I that like.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Friendship way up center is also sub genre horror.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yes, so I I like horror elements in movies, I guess,
but like straight out horror movies. I don't know if
if it's really my style anymore, but yeah, that is
a good point that two of the two best movies
of the year, other than Friendship, which has.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
I don't like horror, and then all my three favorite
movies on the year all up horror elements.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Well, I guess, like sticky horror, I guess is what
I'm getting to like Megan, it's just a straight out
horror No.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Meghan is so especially this one. I'm not even sure
if there is any horror. So Megan is an artificially
intelligent doll, and she is trying to in this one
take down an AI overlord.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Oh so she's a protagonist in this one.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
She's trying to protect the kid. That's also what she
does in the first one.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Though, this is I Robot is what this is?

Speaker 2 (09:55):
This almost has a feel this is I Robot. It
reminds me of Gremlin's too. You know movies great where No,
the first one's really popular and they said, what do
you want to do with the second one? I want
to get as outrageous as possible.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
They literally have stolen the plot to I Robot.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Or it's like Texas Chainsaw Massacre two where it uses
elements of the first one, but it's a comedy.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
I understand the analogies you're making, but they're literally are
just making I Robot.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Well, you want me to make more.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Horror elements in the movie? Good straight horror movie? No good? Okay,
that's that's where I'm landing here.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
You mentioned F one on a budget of over three
hundred million dollars.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
By the way, yes, I didn't finish my thought completely.
Go see twenty eight years later if you at all
like so twenty eight weeks later phenomenal twenty eight days
or twenty eight months later whatever it was twenty eight
weeks later, twenty eight days later, phenomenal twenty eight weeks later. Good,
this movie might be the best of the three.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Okay, so I figured that you were recommending it when
you said it's the best movie of the year short list. Yeah, okay,
thank you once again. F one, the formula racing movie
that has come out starring Bradley Pitt, on a budget
of three hundred million dollars, is projected this weekend to
make forty five to fifty five million dollars.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Seems a little low, doesn't it, for all the hype
that it's kind of had, all the media we've seen.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
It, and that's a production budget, by the way, I
think they have for their advertising, they have doubled it.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
I don't know about double it's definitely in the fall.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
They've been advertising the shit out of it, and maybe
they get some kind of like some kind of like
a break or they're getting money from F one, like
the actual sport to try and promote this.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah. So the nice thing about this is it being
F one, you can cross it its international sport, so
it's gonna do really well internationally, much better than it's
gonna do domestically, and that might be some of the
issue we're seeing here in the projections is Americans just
don't really have a dog in the fight when it
comes to Formula one racing. So that's that's probably what

(11:56):
we're looking at there. You have seen it already, I
haven't seen it. Give me a two sentence review.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
It looks as good as the three hundred million dollar
budget suggests.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
That's one sentence.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Second sentence, classic sports movie.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
All right, Oh so you call it racing a sport?

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Yeah, the sport? Okay, right, another sentence. Whatever you thought
of the.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Trailer, you're Michael Scott and the right.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
I know. Whatever you thought of the trailer, the movie
is that is Brad Pitt awesome? Yeah, So because Brad
Pitt is awesome, that carries the movie. There are some
things that are kind of rushed. The conflict I don't
think is great. There are like most of the movie,
so in Top Gun Maverick, there were clear good guys

(12:43):
and bad guys in this movie. For most of the movie,
you're saying to yourself, who is this against?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
So the nice thing about Top Gun Maverick is you
didn't really need any background other than what you got
from top Gun. Do you need a basic understanding of
F one?

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Okay, So I have watched season one of the Netflix
F one docu series, so I have like a fundamental
understanding of F one in that world.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
I mean, you can like get through this just assuming things.
But not to give anything away, but a lot of
the strategy that they have early on with their races
is working through technicalities. Yeah, and I'm like, I don't
know what the fuck is happening. And then even when
they're just doing laps, I'm like, oh, when does this

(13:32):
lap end?

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah? So you you okay? So it helps to have
that understanding.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
I think it helps a little bit.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
One of the biggest things in NASCAR, but especially in
F one too. Although F one is more predicated on
the driver, it's a big team thing. It's a team
sport if you're going to call it a sport, because
you have all sorts of people playing all sorts of roles,
especially on race day. So I understand the appeal of it.
I just don't think it's ever gonna be that popular.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Well, what's good too is like, not only does Brad
Pitt drive the car, he teaches the astrophysicists how to
properly build a car?

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Do they play that song maybe you can drive my car? No,
I guess, I guess you're gonna be a star.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
They played Life as a Highway over and over again. Yeah,
they play every song from cars, although that would be
so we're about to talk about this. So Joseph Kazinski,
who of course has worked with Tom Cruise on Tom
Good Maverick, he said that his pitch is to reunite

(14:37):
Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, and it would be a
crossover between F one and Days of Thunder.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
I'm okay with that idea. The issue is if you're
gonna pit pit versus Cruise, if you're gonna pit pit
verst Cruise, Brad Pitt's got like six inches on Tom Cruise, soapbox,
it's not the best tit for tat, you know.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Although I bet Pitt can make like a funny joke
about that, like he gets on his kne or something.
And if you're going to cross those over, put Lightley
McQueen in there. Fuck it.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Who's your Mount Rushmore of movie racers?

Speaker 2 (15:07):
So Brad Pitt, Yeah, Tom Cruise, Tom Cruise, just because
they're right in front of me like a McQueen batman.
It's always a race against time.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Baby Driver from Baby Driver, Baby Drivers. Goodta.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Okay, So now you're making a lot more sense to me.
I thought we're just doing race car movies. I'm like,
I don't know a lot of race car movies. Ford
and Ferrari from Ford Verus Ferrari. Now we're talking, all right,
So yes, he would like to get those rivals and
have them cross paths and an epic go kart battle.

(15:45):
And who wouldn't pay to see those two go head
to head on the track. I mean, I would probably
look at their most recent box offices where they're both
doing well. But they're not. They're not making the money
back on the production of their movies.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
They're on the side, the downside of the parabola. You know,
they're they're not you know, A plus stars anymore. As
much as we we like both, Yeah, you can't just
sell a movie saying Cruise and Pit anymore.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Cruise pit racing. I would actually I would rather see
let's have Brad Pitt drive the F one car and
then Tom Cruise run.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Okay, now you're talking.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
Okay, So also Joseph Kazinski given some top Gun three
info during this media blitz that he's doing for F one,
and he said that F one writer Aaron Krueger is
working on the script follows Maverick facing an existential crisis.
Won't get made unless the story is strong enough, which

(16:45):
I'm sure it will get made. Either way, it doesn't matter.
And then finally, there's still more story to tell. There's
one last ride.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
I mean, there's always gonna be a story to tell
when it comes to military fighter planes. But is the
story worth telling? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Like what if they cross it over with Dame Cook's Planes.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
Which isn't Pictar but just Disney.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
It's just Disney. But it looks just like Cars. Yeah right,
I sa it doesn't have the same feel.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Though not quite, not quite. Although to be fair, Planes
is of the same quality as the Car sequels.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
No, no, no, the first car sequel, Cars three, is solid.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Everyone ships on Cars two, Cars two, Cars three. Know
what this is? You know what this is to me?
It's the iron Man two Iron Man three argument. It's
all the same. Now, okay, look, okay. Cars one is
a classic Rocky Balboa story. Yes, Cars two is like
James Bond. What do we do it?

Speaker 2 (17:47):
So cars three man Verse Machine, it's Rocky four. He
needs to work out on those crazy tracks. He's not
just out there driving them streets anymore. He has to
teach a younger car how to drive. It's a lot
like one. It's out there changing diaper movie, it's changing diapers.
News dope coming at the theaters these next couple weeks

(18:12):
on July second, that is next Wednesday. Jurassic World rebirth.
Maherschela at L, who is starring in this movie. When
asked when Blade will start filming, he said, uh, call Marvel.
I'm ready.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
He's been ready for like four years. Yeah, and they
just can't figure their.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Back to the dinosaurs though, right dinosaurs.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
I have almost no interest in this Jurassic World movie.
You are definitely more interested than I.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
I'm not. Don't don't, don't put that on me.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
You are more interested than I am.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
All I said to you in a text yesterday was
follow the money. Those other movies are shit, but they
still make a ton of money. That's what I was saying.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
And no, no, I know what you're saying. And now
I've already started seeing the media blitz of these like
Twitter reviewers been like, oh, Jurassic World gets the basics.
It really captures the spirit of the first movie.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
I've seen one review saying this is the dumbest of
the franchise, And if that's the case, that is saying
a lot. Because the one where the bugs bunny dinosaur
is chasing the person in the house, that one's fucking stupid.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
That one got pretty dumb.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
The one after that about the bugs also stupid.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Yeah, a lot of stupidity in the classic Bugs. I
don't think.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Anything can be stupid crawlers.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
I don't think anything could be stupider than Jurassic Park three. Though.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
Did you have creepy crawlers?

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Of course?

Speaker 2 (19:33):
Oh man, I wasn't allowed to have them. Didn't want
to burn down that It.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Was like having the dude's equivalent to like an easy bacon.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
I know what it's like. You don't have to explain
creepy crawl You just said you didn't have it, so
I didn't have it. I studied creepy crawlers though.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
I have a PhD in creepy crawlers.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
Do you think it's because your father was a firefighter
and he's like, I know the fire safety if the
house catches on fire, I can put it out immediately.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Sure, sure, though I didn't live with him, so that
wouldn't that wouldn't work.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
But he was always in the driveway. He was always
keeping an eye on you guys.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Have you ever I've seen things now people used to cook,
like actual food and easy bake ovens, like other than
just the easy bake recipes. They could cook real food
in it. I didn't know that was the thing.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, like little cakes and shit.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Yeah, little cakes and shit. But also that'd be a
good name for cake shop, little cakes and shit.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
I mean, call me ignorant, but did did houses often
catch on fire because of toys and electronics?

Speaker 1 (20:29):
You ignorant? Uh? These days, KL, what we're seeing often
in the in the industry is there's so many battery
powered things, including like scooters and e bikes that are
being stored inside. But the makers of these places are
not very well regulated, and these fucking batteries will explode

(20:49):
and cause a fire.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
So what you're saying is that we're better off plugging
in seven power strips into an outlet, and that's fine.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
No, No, don't do that either. No, you have exact
scooter or an ee bike. Keep it plugged in outside
or maybe in the garage, not in the actual home.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Have you ever seen a fire in your house?

Speaker 1 (21:08):
In my house?

Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yeah, like while you were like eating dinner, did your
mother accidentally start a fire?

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Actually, like three weeks ago, I was cooking dinner and
got distracted and I had the stove up a little
too high stainless steel pan Chit gets hot and it
got very smoky, to the point where I had to
run a fan in my kitchen to blow the smoke
out of the kitchen.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
One time for some reason, so my grandparents were away,
but my mother was cooking dinner at my grandmother's house.
She caught the curtains on fire.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Grease, fire jumped.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
I'm not sure if that or just like a little
All I know is that I looked up from playing
my game Boy and the curtains were on fire. You know.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Sometimes you put something in and it kind of the
flames jump because of grease or fat, whatever it is.
And maybe it was the curtains over the kitchen sink,
because usually the kitchentick has a little window behind it,
you know.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
So Jurassic Park is coming out next week, Superman is
coming out on the eighth of a Lie, James Gunn
said that Superman won't confuse viewers with so many characters,
adding Oppenheimer has three times as many speaking roles as
we do.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
I mean, he's making a good point because everyone's like, oh,
my god, it's the first movie in the DCU and
he's got, oh, these characters.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Don't mock my wife, don't mock exactly what my wife
said to me.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
That's a Snyder boy right there. He's introducing so many characters.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Those characters are gonna be in like five minutes of
the movie.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yeah, exactly, they'll be like a small segment where those
characters matter. Actually, they won't even matter. The cop said,
they don't even matter, and he's absolutely right. Like the
people are already being so hypercritical. And we're also seeing
this too, which we'll get to in a few Ironheart
debuted on Disney Plus this past week.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Have you seen it?

Speaker 1 (22:47):
And pretty good? Not great, pretty good so far. It
got review bombed instantly before people even and this is
sort of the same little online troll thing that we
have with you know, Star Wars as well. We're seeing
it with DC already seeing it with James gun stuff
James Gunn He did lie about Flash, so that's a
chink in the armor.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
He doesn't like Batman eighty nine, that's a chink in
the armor.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
His Three Guardians movies, there's proof of concept enough that
he can handle odd characters and still give you a
star and give you a heartfelt story. He made us
care about a fucking raccoon in an hon So let
him do his thing, man, Just let him do his thing.
And if you watch a movie and don't like it, fine,
so be it. But let him do his thing.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
I mean people that are review bombing review bombing are
also they're ruining the process of them trying to figure
out if people actually like it or not, because once
it's review bomb they're like, well, these numbers don't matter anymore.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Yeah, one hundred percent.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
Gun also said that if everyone is liking what you're doing,
then you're not doing it right, which I disagree with.
I want everyone to like me.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
He's got a somewhat of a point there. I think
what he's getting at is if people are reacting strongly
to what you're doing, that's a good thing, but it
would be nice if most people liked it.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
Also, when it comes to Clayface the elsewhereld DC movie
that'll be coming within what three years, I'll say two
or three years. It will be rated R. It'll be
a body horror flick. Someone has been cast. I did
not write their name down, and I did not know
anything that they were in. I apologize, agreed.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
I didn't know his name either.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
And then also when talking about the Batman two script,
he said everyone should get off Matt reeves nuts.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
See, that's I don't agree with. And this is his
role now as the DC figurehead, right and essentially the department.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
But I like that statement though, just get off his nuts.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
He can't. He should still be honest. You know, he
lied to us about the Flash.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
That was an honest answer. By the way, get off
these nuts.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, that's what he feels. But he should be like, yeah,
I get it. You know it has been three years.
You're going to wait another three years. I understand it.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
What shirt are you wearing? What is that assumption?

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Greyhounds?

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Bro Oh assumption? I'm sorry, I forgot Come on, I
have no apparel from my school.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
I was I was a fucking inchor legend. I was
like the buffalo Bill's a wiffleball at assumption I lost
in three straight woffleball championships.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
Speaking of wiffleball, first off, I do want to start
playing again. As soon as my son can pick up,
you know, hitting a ball that's in the air, we
can start playing. But I was I bought backyard baseball
earlier for the switch. I fucking stink at it.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Well, part of it's gonna be interesting because you're used
to clicking and swinging and stuff on the old school
backyard basis, so it must be an adjustment with them.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
So you need to use the It's it's just like
playing any baseball game. You use the joystick, the joystick
to put the bat where the ball is going, and
then you just hit a and that's all it like,
it's a simple thing. I took fifty swings in batting practice.
Care to guess how many times I made contact? Uh,

(26:00):
twenty two with Pablo Sanchez?

Speaker 1 (26:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Four times?

Speaker 1 (26:08):
Is it random pitches that you're getting as well?

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I think it was all straight balls. I didn't see
any big sweepers. I didn't see any off speed.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Yeah, so you're just you're just bad at the game.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
I'm fucking bad at the game. And then what I
try to do. I played two innings of like a scrimmage.
I struck out four times in my six at bats,
I made several errors. I was losing two nothing after
an inning and a half, and I said, oh it
to me foreign.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
Okay, maybe you should just give the sticks to Raffi
and he'll probably do better.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
No, I'm gonna when I get home tonight, I'm gonna
lock myself in a room and I am gonna learn Raffi.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Look, look how good I am.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
I hit one home runnarlier. I'm like, look at the
home run?

Speaker 1 (26:55):
Is it all the same fields?

Speaker 2 (26:57):
It's all the same fields. And also what he enjoys
a town And I like it too. It's the animation
of it. But when the kids walk up to the plate.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
Yeah, very also well made game.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
Exact same commentary. Love that they didn't get rid of, Like, oh,
when this person swinging, it's like they're swinging out of pinata.
What are we doing? Oh? Also coming out, Yes, also
coming out in July, my son's most anticipated movie, Smurfs. Uh.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
I never saw the first one. I guess you think
you're going to be lost in the story. I got
confused when this first Murfs came out. I thought it
was another Trolls movie, because I'm like, we have we've
had three of these.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Well, this is the first Smurfs movie, like the first
in the line. No, not the one from before. The
one from before is the Katy Perry smurfet. Rihanna is Smurfet. Now.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
I thought there was a Smurf movie last year with Rihanna.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
No, that is this year.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
I'm so fucking confused.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
They're blue, they're trying to save the environment.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
So this is a reboot of the Katy Perry verse.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
If it's a reboot a reimagining, it's hannabab. It's not
a requel. And then on July twenty fifth is Fantastic four.
So many popcorn buckets. We got a look at another
one where Reed Richards is wrapping his arms around a
popcorn bucket.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
I'm really excited Fantastic four.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
I'm not that excited. No, I'm not that excited right now.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
You're more excited for Drashic Park.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
Oh, you're more excited than for Jurassic Park than me.
I'm not. I'm not.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Actually, I'm at like two and you're at like ten
out of one hundred for Drastic.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
It's just because I'm a cool uncle and I get
to bring my younger cousin with me two days ahead
of when the fucking movie comes out.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
It's they could tell all his friends of it.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
I saw it.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Yeah, dude, I'm seeing it tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Even though it's like the summer, so we'll have to
text me like I just saw a Jurassic World. Cool.
I'm going on Wednesday.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Neat Yeah, Wednesday release is bizarre too.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
Well. No, they always do that for July fourth. They
always put it out.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Day July fourth week.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
Yeah, got it, America, Come on, dude.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Fuck yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
News dump out on television right now. The Bear season
four over on roddy T's. It has an eighty one
percent cutting off the back of eighty nine percent in
season three, ninety nine in season two, and one hundred
in season one.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
These are the critics scores.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
Critics scores, Yes.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
Yeah, I'm interested to see what the audience scores are.
So did you ever watch season one of The Bear?

Speaker 2 (29:27):
No? I jumped in at the worst possible moment. My
wife had just watched seasons one through two, and I
watched the first episode of season three that like, you
really had to be invested in what was going on
and really had to pay attention, and I'm like, I,
this is a bad starting point for me.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
I never got it with the Bear. I watched season one.
When season one was popular, I'm like, all right, everyone's
raving about this. I'm like, yeah, this is good, but like,
I don't know why people were claiming it's the best
thing ever. And then people like season two quite a bit.
I remember everyone talking about is either Christmas or Thanksgiving
episode in season two that was supposed to be phenomenal.
And then I didn't hear anyone that really loved season three,

(30:08):
and absolutely no one was talking about season four coming
out this past week. So I don't know where where
Bear fans stand on it. It's just it's not for me.
That's it.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
That's just them going outside to the old creek trying
to catch salmon.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
Like it was. It was framed to me, and it
was framed as a comedy, and it's.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Well, typically like, not not a comedy anymore.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
It's like ninety percent drama ten percent comedy, which is fine,
you can you can do that, but don't try to trick.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
Have you seen entire season two yet?

Speaker 1 (30:37):
I have?

Speaker 2 (30:38):
Was JJ Watt in season one or season two.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
He is at the beginning of season two.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
I believe I've seen season one, and then I just
saw a clip of the JJ Watt part on like
a Instagram whatever it is, and I was like, this
is this is funny? I like this.

Speaker 1 (30:56):
I think it was. So season two is twelve episodes.
I think season one was only six or eight. Yeah,
season two is definitely better, strouchered better. You could tell.
Season one was like maybe a little bit too much improv.
I didn't love season one. It had its moments. Season
two is definitively better than season one.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
I don't like the main actor in it. I like
Shane Gillis.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
I agree with you, he's better in season two. Okay,
it's a little Michael Scottish in season one where it's
like eh, but they sort of found they carved out
a nice role for him in season two.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Also, Squid Game is its final chapter is now available.
I am out on squid Game and then you mentioned Ironheart.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Yeah, so Squid Game took it took me four years
to watch season one, and I'll say the hype was
pretty legit about season one, really really strong season of
television couldn't finish episode one of season two, and then
they do like a five month break between in the
middle of season two, so don't I don't know if
I'll pick that back up, maybe in another four years.
Ironheart did a three episode premiere this week and it's

(31:56):
only gonna be six episodes long, so it be quick
in and out. And I like what they're doing. I'm
not gonna pretend it's a top tier MCU thing, and
it's maybe not even second tier. But as far as
Marvel Television has been, this is one of the better,
better things they've done. And the main girl, I forget
her last name, her first name is Dominique, the girl

(32:17):
that plays Rerey Williams. That's that's her name. There you go.
She's really good. And the characters and the it's it's fun,
it's haisty, you know, they're not really good people. They're
not really bad people. It's it's uh, it's been pretty
good so far, and I like where it's leading.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
There's done. We paused for way too long.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Right then we may end up being disappointed, but they
are teasing or inferring a character that you have been
talking about for four years.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
War Machine.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Yeah, so we'll see if we actually get.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
It all right. Denis Villeneuve is officially set to direct
the next James Bond movie, Bond at twenty. Are you
complaining about the headline that I did for this because
I put the definition of the word bond, uh jokes
on you.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Well, there's multiple definition. The Bond could be used in
multiple ways.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
I chose the best one. I went through several definitions.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
You didn't want to do the bondage boy definition.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
There was no bondage boy definition. That's just very funny
stuff that you and I say.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
If you bond someone I, you and I could give
a flying fuck about James Bond.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
We're not broccoli boys.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
And I'm also curious because Villeneuve has clearly made his
mark in the sci fi world, not to say like
he's also done Prisoners and he did Sacario, so he's
clearly gonna drop a nice I don't even know if
he's writing it as well. He's clearly gonna make a
fucking great movie. I'm just curious if he changes it

(33:52):
a little bit, makes it a little a little different
than the Bond that we've seen. Because Villeneuve is so
good at certain elements.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
Okay, So the studio right now is searching for a writer.
Villeneuve will not have final.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Cut, tremendously disappointing. Why would you get Villeneuve and not
give him final cut? Let him direct, That's what I
understand that. Why wouldn't you give him final cut? Why
would you seek out the best director in the game,
gu the Nicola Jokic of directors, and you're not giving
him final cut.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
As a director, he should only shoot two and a
half hours worth of material and that's it, and you
say this is the cut.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Villeneuve shot seven hours of a dystopian desert planet and
made it interesting. So let him do whatever the fuck
he wants with James Bond. I don't care if it's
four hours. Me as someone doesn't give a fuck about
James Bond. I'm gonna go see it. Let Denis Villaneuve
be Dnis Villaneuve, don't do not fucking be looking over
his shoulder and change things that he wants to do.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
So he has signed on for one project that could
change if it is successful. Also, his earliest movie going
memories are connected to Bond. He grew up watching Bond
with his father. Ever since Doctor No with Connery. He
is a die hard Bond fan and to him this
is sacred territory.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
I mean, clearly it's going to be successful. It will
be whether he can tolerate the oversight, I feel like.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
And then finally Bond will be cast after they finish
writing it.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
I like that about that.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
I like Timothy Shallame.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
I heard that there's a pretty good push for the
guy that's playing uh Jon Stewart in The Lantern Show
to play Bond. Here something, Saint Pierre something.

Speaker 2 (35:30):
Here we go. I'm not tosses out there right now.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
He's stumbling up on something right now.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
You know who's gonna play Bond?

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Who?

Speaker 2 (35:35):
Austin Butler.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
No, wouldn't work.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
I'm calling it right now. No, would tape mark the tape.
It's either him or Scars Guard, the Daddling, No, the
Dad Scars Guard, Sell Stellin.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
Is Stellin, Alex Bill. Who's the third one?

Speaker 2 (35:55):
It's three sons like that show, My three sons news dope.
Speaking of casting, we now know the cast of Spider
Man Brand New Day so far, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob
Bath Alone, Sadie Sink, John Burnhal, Liza Cologone Zayas that

(36:16):
is via THHR and filming begins this summer.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
I believe Batolone is Filipinos. That is how you say it, Yes, Bartolone.
I'm extremely curious, extremely extremely curious who Sadie Sink is
gonna play because we have MJ's and Daya. I don't know.
Maybe she'll be playing Felicia Hardy. But Felicia Hardy's on
a redhead. I suppose maybe they should just die her hair.

(36:42):
That's simple enough. I'm so so excited that John Burnenthal
is involved because he's an amazing punisher. And it also
tells you that this is going to be, at least
at the start, some sort of street level sort of movie,
which I think we really enjoy. When it comes to Spider.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
Man saying that Sadie Sink is gonna play Gene Gray.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Oh you think they're gonna backdoor Geen Gray into the
Spider Man movie.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
I wouldn't mind. Maybe not that actress. I don't know
how old she is. I'm saying age she's either Jean
Gray in general or the Goblin Queen.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Speaking of Sadie's Sink, Uh, what's that? What's that? Stranger
Things that's coming out that's coming out in a few months.
How about that.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
This is the new part of news dump. This is
called explaining the headlines. You didn't like the headline earlier
with Oi, mister Punisher, you just blew that Chap's head claiolf.
That's supposed to be Tom Holland's voice, because Spider Man
is talking to Punisher.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
Yeah, and clearly spider Man is a little British boy.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
Tom Holland is Oh, oh, pusher, you just blew that
Chu's Claire Rudolf I.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
Say, I say that's a better little boy voice than
Why did more of a Yeah, I did more of
a teenage boy voice.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
News don't back. This next piece of news is for you.
Amanda Seafried said that she auditioned for Wicked for Glinda
six times. She did not get the role.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
Ariana Grande did, so it sounds like she made it
to the final grouping. If you're auditioned fucking six times,
clearly she could sing. She's been the star of a
musical franchise, Mama Mia Chary has been pretty funny in
many of her outings, but very clearly they made the
right choice of Ariana Grande. She carries a big part
of that movie.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
I bet Sayfreid would have been really good, though.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
I agree, I think she would have been really good.
I totally agree. I just think Ariana Gronde was perfect.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
News dope, they have found their host for Fear Factor,
and this guy might do more of the fear factoring
than the contestants. It is Johnny Knoxville.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
It's a perfect host for it. Yeah, and part of
me thinks he will demonstrate some of these things before
the people actually do.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
My guess is that if someone won't eat a bug,
he'll just walk over and eat the bug.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
Or he'll have like a cast of some of these
jackass guys demonstrate the stunt. Because remember in Fear Factor,
when they were doing a stunt, they would usually demonstrate
it the first one before the people did it. I
bet it'll be one of those jackass guys demonstrating it.

Speaker 2 (39:18):
You know who, It's not going to be Bam Bam.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
I think they're mean. They've mended fences, though.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
I don't think so, because someone recently caught Bam and
they asked him, hey, Bam, would you be in Jackass five?
And he's like, I wouldn't want to be in Jackarriage
four or would a bunch of idiots being thrown around
and stuff up de rage. That's a good bam impression.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
That's a great bare.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
It's also there was a guy and it might still
be on YouTube. He just did a bam impression and
he would just walk around and do like the dumbest
stunts and they just go, all right, guys, this is
bam Margira and this is smashing pumpkins. And he would
just take a pumpkin and throw it on the ground.

Speaker 1 (39:58):
You were like one step short of Ben Marjero when
you're like fifteen all you the only thing I was
missing was you beating the shit out of your debt,
and you would have been full Ben marje I.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Mean I was pretty close to that.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah, that's what I mean.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
News Depth, Ray Romano and Patricia Heaton have joined Brad
Garrett in refusing to do an Everybody Loves Raymond reboot
with Everybody, citing that two of the main cast members
have passed, Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts. They were the
best part of the show.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
I'm curious as to how this has come to be. So.
The writer and creator of this show, Phil Rosenthal, has
a show called Somebody Feed Phil that's on Netflix. It's
actually a really great travel and food show. It's fucking like,
if you liked Anthony Bourdain, you're gonna be into this
sort of thing that's more lighthearted, and it's got a

(40:50):
super catchy theme song, Somebody Somebody Feed Phil.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
It's good too. Highly recommend it. Get like eight seasons.
I think because he's gained so much notoriety now on Netflix,
they're probably approaching him about doing a reboot or something
like that. And I don't know how much Ray Romano
had to do with the creation of the show way back.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
Hey guys, what if recall it? Everybody loves Raymond.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
I assume him and Rosenthal are good friends to New
York guys, And honestly, I find Ray Romano very funny,
so I would be in.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I find him funnier now outside of everybody, I agree.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
I agree, which is why I buy back into this
and Garrett is funny. Actually, Phil Rosenthal, creative the show,
is married to Brad Garrett what was his name in
the show, Robert. Robert's wife Amy in the show is
Phil's real wife in real life, real wife in real life,
so I don't know. This is a show that's like

(41:54):
so up and down. It's as it's it's it's pluses
and minuses. But part of the magic is Peter Boyle
and Dort We.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
Just figured it out. So you start the show and
you still have Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts in there.
You just have ai CGI. That's the best way to
honor their legacy.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Uh. Patricia Heaton, by the way, has become very hate herble.
She's a bit of a kook.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
I haven't seen anything that she's done. After the Middle, she.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Was solid in that.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
Actually everybody loves Raymond. Back to you the Middle. She
played a news reporter opposite Kelsey Grammar. It was a
Fox sitcom when it lasts one minute, maybe half a season.
It was one of those shows where like they were
perfectly like they were great professionals on the air, and
then once the camera cut, I hate you, shut up, Fraser.

(42:49):
Is that a clip from the show?

Speaker 1 (42:50):
For some reason, I went straight to shut up honkey. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
She was playing Richard Pryor on the show News Deep,
speaking of Peter Boyle. After they said they're not gonna
remake Raymond. We are now seeing via deadline that we
are going to get a prequel series to Young Frankenstein,
the mel Brooks classic, called Very Young Frankenstein. I do

(43:18):
think that's funny. I also thought it was gonna be
called Younger Frankenstein, but whatever. But this is gonna be
made by the same people that worked on What We
Do in the Shadows. So when I first saw that
they were bringing it back, I'm like, that's a bad idea.
But I have a feeling because it's fx they're gonna
use the what we Do in the Shadows people, and

(43:39):
they are, so it might be good.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
It's a perfect combination. If it's gonna be good, this
is the ideal combination, and the themes and the tone
of what We Do in the Shadows is absolutely perfect
for Young Frankenstein. So I'm optimistic about this one. I
think this could be real good.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
What is the name of the lead act in What
We Do in the Shadows? I don't Matt Yes, when
he's not doing when he's not doing Fantasy football.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
The way that he delivers the line of You're the
biggest bastard and all of New York City is maybe
the best line delivery of all time.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
That show is so underrated. I think it did five
seasons and no one really talks about it.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Matt Berry is also amazing in the IT crowd. It
was a British show with who is the fella from Bridesmaids?
The Irish fella?

Speaker 1 (44:32):
Yes, I know exactly what you're talking about. I don't
know his name, and it has the the the curly
hair guy that was in that bench stillar Chris O Dowd.
Chris O Dowd.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
That's right, Richard iowaa, that's his name.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
He was in the Watch movie.

Speaker 1 (44:47):
Yes, that's the name of the movie, The Watch.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
I haven't seen that a real long time. Should I
watch that again? I've recently heard that it's actually really
funny and maybe I just missed something. Maybe I was
too young.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
I don't know who you were talking to, but that's untrue.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
I talking to no one. I was listening to a
YouTube video.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
Those are my friends, okay, uh yeah, the very young Frankenstein.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
It has potential news dempe and a threat made by
Pixar boss Pete Doctor. He said, because of the right now,
the failure of el eoh. He said, we have to
find out what people want before we know it because
if we just gave them what they knew, because Leo
is bombing, it's an original thing. There's no predecessor to stting.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Reviewed really well though.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
He said, but if we knew, but if we just
gave them what people know, we'd be making Toy Story
twenty seven.

Speaker 1 (45:39):
I mean, he's not wrong. He has a pretty good
point here, But what he's ignoring is they've done a
good ten to fifteen years of giving us stuff we
didn't want, and they're making movies for preteens that those
aren't the crowds that are really driving movies and money.
You got to make the movies for the seven, eight, nine,

(46:00):
ten year olds, which is what this Elio El Eo
movie looks like. It's geared towards and it is being
reviewed really well. People are borderline loving this movie, but
there's just people not going to the theater for it,
in part because Pixar has failed so much over the
last time.

Speaker 2 (46:14):
Yeah, because they're not appealing to the younger kids. Illumination
is crushing it with the kids with minions saying trolls.
I think was.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
It DreamWorks that did the Robot movie?

Speaker 2 (46:28):
Yeah, DreamWorks is also doing a great job too. Plus
there's so many other studios outside of the big ones
that are still like making really good Academy Award winning
animated movies.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Also stop making Toy Story movies. They're making another one.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
I know, but I do like, and I know that
you don't like the movie. But listening to Quentin Tarantino
talk about Toy Story three is the funniest thing ever.

Speaker 1 (46:50):
Toy Story three, if it ended like twelve minutes earlier,
would have been one of the greatest movies.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
Quentin Tarantino. I think he's talking to Bill Mauer or
mayor so, but he's talking to him about how Toy
Story one, two and three is the perfect trilogy of
all time, and Toy Story four could be the best
movie ever. He doesn't give a fuck. He will never
watch it again. Toy Story three had the perfect conclusion.

(47:16):
He will never but in hit his opinion, though, so
he will never watch another piece of Toy Story ever.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
I totally get. I mean good, You've known me long enough.
That was what happened to me with Breaking Bad the
end of season four. Breaking Bad was peak television.

Speaker 2 (47:33):
You've watched every episode of Better Call Saul. You didn't
just stop bak right there at Breaking Bad.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
No I did. When Breaking Bad was out, I stopped
because I was like, I am so satisfied with what
I just got over the last two and a half seasons.
Like halfway through season two, that show hits a stride
that is unmatched by any other show ever in my opinion,
And at the end of season four, that conclusion is
so satisfying in my head, and this is what Tarantino's

(47:59):
get at. I don't want that thought and that feeling ruined, right,
And so it took me like two years before I
watched season five of Breaking Bad. Luckily they fucking crushed
it because that shows the greatest drama of all time.
But there was a point and Game of Thrones is
the perfect example of this. You get to a point
where something is so good that it literally cannot be

(48:21):
better and it's only going to go down. You guys
saw that with Thrones, and that's what Tarantino's speaking about.
At a certain point, a story is so great and
maybe it's not over yet and maybe it should get
wrapped up quicker, but ultimately a lot of the times
it gets dragged on. Sons of Aeronarchy perfect example. Through
four and a few episodes. Four seasons, A few episodes.

(48:43):
That was great television, and almost instantly in season five
the show got bad.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Let me pitch to you right now. I just thought
of this the either greatest or most useless superpower of
all time, knowing when to stop watching a television show.
You watch an episode and you go, there's nowhere to
go but down from here, and you have the perfect
foresight every single time.

Speaker 1 (49:06):
I think I'm okay at that. I think I'm pretty
good at that. I when I dip out, I almost
never regret it. So it's a good one. It's a
good one for sure, useful on a personal level, but
it wouldn't it wouldn't help you at all elsewhere.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
It's dump. We're gonna get a sequel to the live
action Lee Loo and Stitch movie. It is in the
works right now. That is getting close to a billion dollars.
Let's see, uh, let's see if Nannie is able to
rescue Leelo from the state.

Speaker 1 (49:34):
I doubt they're gonna redo the second animated movie. I'm
sure they're gonna go down.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
We're gonna jump to Leroy and Stitch.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
I think I'm okay with this. Lelo and Stitch was
pretty good, and I think because the Stitch sequels way
back when didn't really crush it. I think there's a
window of opportunity here. Merch' stay. By the way, it
was six to sixty the other day.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
It's all about merch. Yeah, news Nope. A trailer for
the Springsteen Deliver Me from Nowhere movie coming out in October.
This star is Jeremy Allen White, and the biggest thing
about the movie. Like with all biopicks about musicians, he sings.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Like all biopicks, except for which somehow he won Best
Actor for someone told me that and Tarron That still
bothers me that the next year Taron Edgerson blew him
out of the water.

Speaker 2 (50:27):
Rocketman is such a good biopick. It's so good, so good,
it's not pained by the numbers.

Speaker 1 (50:33):
It's so fitting as to who Elton John.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
Is and was, and it actually has conflict, unlike the
Bob Dylan movie.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
Yep. I'm interested in this because I don't really care
for Springsteen or his music, but he is super popular
on those levels, and Jeremy Allen White is pretty good actor,
so this could be really good.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
It's also about the album that he wrote in a
room by himself, Nebraska.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
It's centered around the Nebraska album, which I would argue
is his worst album. Again, I'm not a Springsteen guy.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
So Baby We're Barn.

Speaker 1 (51:03):
To Run after that, it's like two albums after that.

Speaker 2 (51:06):
Right, But he sings Born to Run in the movie
because the song has already come out. He wouldn't sing
a song that hasn't come out yet.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
What's your favorite Springsteen song?

Speaker 2 (51:15):
I don't like Springsteen.

Speaker 1 (51:16):
Yeah, Springsteen is what Taylor Swift is for young white women,
is what Bruce Springsteen is for old white men. That's
the analogy.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
Him and the Eagles. Do you like the Eagles?

Speaker 1 (51:31):
You leave the Eagles alone? The Eagles, I'm.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
Not a big Eagles guy.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
No, I get it. It's I get it. But Hotel
California for sure one of the greatest songs of all time.
You gotta give me.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
That's all they do is screech into the microphones. It's
dumb trailer for Ruffman the Stars. Channing Tatum he's some
kind of a burglar. Works at Toys r Us.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
No. I think he he uh is like hiding out
in toys r Us or something.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
I don't I don't know. I look intriguing. It looks interesting.

Speaker 1 (52:01):
Yeah, we like Tatum news Deppe.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
Mac are you excited for this? One of your favorite
movies of all time is getting a sequel, The Social Network.
This will be written and directed by Aaron Sorkin via Deadline.

Speaker 1 (52:15):
So The Social Network, for me, I think, is the
textbook definition of a movie that just keeps getting better
and better the more you see it in the more
at ages. When that movie came out in twenty ten,
I thought it was really good, and pretty much every
time I've thought about it or watched it since, it
goes up and up. It's a forty dog movie. To me,

(52:36):
I think it's probably the best movie of the twenty tens.
The score in that movie is fucking amazing. It's a
great movie. It's an all time movie to me. Actually,
I just shared the other day, I think it's the
New York Post is doing Top one hundred movies of
all time or something like that, and you can vote
on him. I shared that as in my top ten

(52:58):
or top twenty twoe hundred movies. The last twenty five
year is what it is. So I love that movie.
All that said, part of why that movie is so good.
Is because David Fincher directs it. He's not attached to this,
at least just yet. Sorkin is. I don't know. Sorkin's
up and down for me. He clearly can write, I
don't know about the directing part. And there is enough

(53:19):
drama in the fifteen years since that you can sort
of do a Social Network sequel. I just don't know
if it's as intriguing and as enthralling as the story
in that first movie. So this is one I'll be
like half in, half out on as we go, and
the more we learn about it, like I assume Eisenberg

(53:40):
is gonna be back, it only makes too much sense.
I don't know. I don't know how to feel about
this one. This is a really confusing sequel. And it's
not like and like when you think about in the past,
like we've been talking about for years now, basically since
we've had this podcast, like enough with the sequels, you know,
original ideas. However, this is like not in that same territory.

(54:00):
This is a superhero movie. This isn't a crazy ip.
Although you know, obviously Facebook is so well known. This
is different, like a different story when it comes to sequel,
So I am intrigued by it by at the very least.

Speaker 2 (54:13):
This camera fucking sucks.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Yeah, you're dying over it.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
I'm dying over here, news dope. And finally, Lebron James
says that he is interesting and do what he's interested
in doing more acting after he retires from the NBA.
If the script starts to roll in and there's an
opportunity for me to do some acting, I have the time.
I don't mind looking at it.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
Lebron James. Lebron James can't act, so I don't know,
I don't. I mean, he can, he can play Lebron
James in movies if he wants, But that man can't act.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
It is crazy for being so versatile on the court
not on the screen.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
Agreed.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
I mean, I think he should do what he's kind
of been doing the last couple of years, and that's
be an ep behind the scenes. Buy it properties that
you want to try and put some money behind. Yeah,
if you want to be in the entertainment biz news
DOWMP all right, check us out next week. Hopefully we'll
have f one, Maybe we'll do Max Zombie Dong movie.

(55:13):
We'll eventually get to Jurassic Park. We'll get to all.
Hope you enjoyed this massive dump, our biggest dump in
some time. Sorry about my camera, but it's not mine.
What the fuck.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
That's a great sign.
