Speaker 1 (00:10):
Hey, everybody, Welcome to the Larger Nerd Junk Glider, the
podcast that's all about the giggy things happening in the
world around us and how very excited we are about them.
I'm Ariel Caston and with me is always is the
actually present very here his opinion matters Jonathan.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Strick, I'm just trying to have some fun. Lol, say
oh well or go to hell.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, don't, don't go to No. We love you.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
We were we were as soon as Ariel logged onto
the session. She heard me like quoting the song Don't
Lose your Head from Six the musical. And I have
not seen six. I've only heard some of the songs,
not all of the songs. But Anne Boleyn's song is

(00:56):
one of the ones I've heard, and that's that's from
hers in case, casey, we're curious.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
I have seen six. It doesn't like it's very like
Spice Girls concert. It's just the girls all singing songs
on stage with some fun props, amazing lighting design, and
a live band on stage. So even if it doesn't
sound like I was like, I don't know this is
this is more of a concert than a story. But
it was really good and I really enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
So yeah, the bits I've heard were, I mean, they
are very poppy. It's a little it's a little kind
of it's the kind of poppy that I don't typically
listen to. Like it it is bridging between musical theater
style and pop style. It's not like pure spice girls
pop or anything like that. But yeah, I probably never

(01:44):
would have given it much time if it weren't for
the fact that I am like a former Renfair performer,
a Shakespearean scholar, Like that's kind of like my right
around the era that I focused on in college. So
I have interest in that. I do like the idea
and this is a spoiler for Six, the musical about

(02:06):
six women who at one point were married to Henry
the Eighth, But I do like the idea that the
musical ultimately is about how they decide it is past
time for them to be able to define their own
lives as opposed to constantly being defined through their relationship

(02:27):
with Henry the Eighth.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yeah, because they're like they all have very interesting stories
and in the case of like, is Catherine Parr is
the final one?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Right?

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yes, did a whole bunch of really really cool stuff
in history and made all of these like great achievements,
and you never hear about them.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Right, Like all you hear is that she's the one
who who outlived Henry the eighth. That's it, as opposed to,
you know, establishing the school where young women are taught
how to read and things of that nature and writing
books and treatises and things. Yeah, so so cool idea.

(03:11):
It's not really my style. I do think that the
costume design is very evocative, like it is like a
pop concert version of Renaissance style costuming, obviously with huge
departures from actual convention, but neat like lots of sparkles

(03:31):
and gemstones and things like that. Anyway, that's all to
say that, whether I like it or not, the damn
song is stuck in my head.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
I get House of Holvine stuck in my head.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
I have not yet listened to that one I need to, Like,
I've listened to the first one, like We're six, right,
I've listened to that, and I've listened to the Don't
Lose Your Head, and I've listened to Catherine Howard's song,
which is incredibly depressing. But those are the only ones
I haven't listened to the rest. I need to I

(04:04):
just need to sit down and listen through it, and
I haven't yet done that.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Catherine of Aragon has also got a really good song.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Yeah, Parr and Jane Seymour both have very like slow
Ballady kind of like each Woman is based on. We
might have talked about this when I went to see six,
but each Woman is based off of several like pop icons. Yeah,
and so one of the ones that Jane Seymour is
based off of is Celine Dion and that's very the
style of her song.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
So gotcha. Well, it's been two weeks since we recorded.
We wanted to try and record last weekend, but it
just didn't work out. Part of part of that is
because our normal recording time wasn't really an option because
Ariel was getting ready to do her thing as an actor.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah. I performed at dragon Con with the Atlanta Radio
Theater Company. It was a lot of fun. Jonathan and
I talk a lo lot about drop out TV on
this channel and Game Changer, and there was someone there there.
There was a group of Cause players who Cause played
the entire Game Changer experience. You had like basically an

(05:12):
ash A Nico a sam all the podiums with working buzzers,
and then somebody holding up like the whiteboard where they
put the questions and he'd hold it up and it all.
It took a second to realize that the people with
the head zeps on weren't like working the convention. They
were a part of this coseplay. But it was really fantastic.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
That's funny. What was the show that you are? Shows
that you did?

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I did. I was in an original I was only
in one show this year. We had two shows. One
was based off of the Sleepy Hollow, the Sleepy Hollow story,
and it was it's a really great play. I did
it when they first did it. Somebody else did it
this time and they did an amazing job. That was

(05:53):
on Sunday. I was not in that production. I was
in Friday Night's production and I played an adventuring duchess
in an original piece about a princess and a dragon
stuck in a cave together. And then the other piece
they did was Beyond the Wall of Sleep by Lovecraft.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Lovecraft adaptations are always tricky because Lovecraft stories they aren't
They typically don't have like dialogue or anything in them.
They're typically, like it's almost like a journal entry of
what someone experienced, So it's always a challenge to adapt
those two different media.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah, they did a really good job. So I've heard
Beyond the Wall of Sleep before by Artsy and it's
always done super well. But this cast just knocked it
out of the park Friday night.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
So that's awesome. Well, what stuff have you been watching
or encountering or experimenting with since the last time we recorded?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
So I gave and or another shot and or what if?
But the show and or all by old, I mean
like a couple of years old Star Wars thing that
I watched, like the first four episodes and it was like, ugh,
this is a slog, But then like the fifth or

(07:09):
sixth episode, something cool actually happened.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
So it's so funny that you, I mean, your opinion
is valid. It's just so funny because I have yet
to watch and Or. But it's one of those shows
where a lot of the folks I've listened to talk
about it are you know, they gush about it saying
like this is the best Star Wars thing to come out,
like along with maybe season one of the Mandalorian.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yeah, I mean, it's another prequel, right, So Rogue one
is a prequel to the original Star Wars trilogy, and
then and Or is a prequel to Rogue one.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
That's true. We're slowly working our way backward to the
to the episodes one through three.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yeah, and so like, it's okay, the actors are great.
It's got Evan Moss back reck in it and Stelling
Scars Garden, tons of people. But the first like three episodes,
I didn't There were lots of flashbacks and they felt
similar to the way that Boba Fette's flashbacks happened, where

(08:11):
it just kind of felt incongruous. And then there were
so many people that I didn't care about or apparently
didn't need to care about in the first couple of episodes,
and so like it was very slow. And in episode
four they introduced my Mathma, and it's okay, she does

(08:32):
some cool stuff. She's a cool character, obviously I'll be
but like, it was just so slow. And then it
was either episode five or six, I can't remember. Some
really cool stuff happened, and all of that was fantastic,
but it took so long to get there that I
had become uninterested by that time. Gotcha being able to
start at the interesting episode was much better.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Yeah, I still haven't seen it, so I can't really
comment on it. It's just like it's it. I was
the only reason I was commenting at all is just
that the some of the other shows I listened to,
none of which are actually pop pop culture oriented shows
just occasionally they talk about this stuff. But they were
praising the series. But again, that doesn't you know, I

(09:18):
haven't seen it. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Yeah, yeah, I watched more Scavenger's Reign, which is getting
real creepy. We've got two episodes left in the season.
It's real creepy. It gets like scarier and creepier and
more upsetting as it goes on. I finished never stopped
blowing up, which was so like my partner Tony said, like,

(09:44):
the final episode goes so off the rails, and my
other friend David was like, no, no, they threw away
the rails in the previous episode and it was just
a free for all in the final episode. Either way,
it was such a ridiculous romp.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
I'm sure I'll a lot of the dice that people
were using were pretty high up there.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Well, yes, but there was one one suite of so
as the players as the table unlocked certain level dice,
because you roll a dice like a D four, and
if you hit a four on it, it blows up
and you can roll the next a D six immediately,
and if that blows up, you can roll a D
eight immediately, and you add all of those numbers together.

(10:25):
But then you whatever the highest dice you end on
is the dice that you roll permanently. Now, So when
everybody got to at least one twenty sided dice, they
opened the D twenty suite of skills that they could buy,
and one of them was that they could pop that
D twenty down back to a D four, but then

(10:46):
roll with an advantage, and every time they leveled up,
they'd be rolling with advantage, and then if they got
to twenty again and popped it down to a four again,
then they'd have double advantage. So there were other.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
D twenty meaning they could roll more than once and
take the highest value, right, yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Or they could roll three dice and pick the best yeah, right,
or two dice three dice double advantage is three. There
were other D twenty D twenty abilities, but I don't
want to talk about those because I feel like it
will ruin the surprise, gotcha. But but yeah, so that
was just delightful and fun. I started watching Kevin kin

(11:26):
f Himself, which we talked about before it came out.
It's it's kind of It's King of Queen's Meats Breaking
Bad essentially right.

Speaker 2 (11:36):
It's a show where the tone and presentation of the
show is dependent upon which character you are following. If
you're following Kevin, it's done like it's a schlubby kind
of guy who happens to be married to someone way
out of his league, so it's done a like a

(11:58):
sitcom comedy. But when it's following the woman, it's more
like a grounded, gritty kind of drama drama. And yeah,
I've heard about the show and it is intriguing. What's
been your Do you think it works?

Speaker 1 (12:14):
I do so again, same friend I was talking about
never stopping up with. Also, it was like, oh I
watched that there was one episode and I just felt
like there wasn't growth, or he watched he thought he
watched un twelve episodes. He watched one episode there was
you know, that's the setup is It is really good.
It has done very well. I find kind of as

(12:38):
I continue in the there's two seasons of it, and
I'm in season one still. But as I continue through
the show, I find the sitcom parts more bearable because
it's playing on that trope of sitcoms where like the
dad or the husband is a complete buffoon, everybody loves Raymond,
King of Queen's married with children, where like the guy
is just not really is really not likable. He's not

(12:59):
a good guy, right, He's insensitive, he's uncaring, he's dumb,
and this woman who needs to be rid of him.
But when he's there, the world revolves around him. But
it is really interesting, it works really well watching the
actors that I haven't seen every actor on both sides
of the coin, like both in the sitcom portions and

(13:23):
the drama portions. But the actors who you do see
go back and forth. It's brilliant, Like it takes a
different kind of acting to do those different parts. And
not like saying when you're in a sitcom or a
comedy that you have to be over the top. You
still want to be genuine. The thing that makes comedy
funny is truly believing what you're saying, right, But it's

(13:47):
there's like a there's a different type of delivery that
you can do to it. There's there's a little more
tongue in cheek, and it's like an acting masterclass. It's
really phenomenal. I'm very much enjoying it. I highly recommend it.
It's on Netflix.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
You have that one, Jonathan, all Right, well, I guess
I'll see that after I watch New Girl? Is that
the one you keep telling me I have to watch?

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Yes, Okay, New Girl is a lot more.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Fun I imagine, so yeah, and then wait, probably less
grueling drama and New Girl.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah, I mean there's a lot of comedy, and Kevin
Kin f himself like, there's not just because they bounce
back and forth between sitcom and drama, but there's a
lot of situational moments that are also kind of funny.
And then I watched Chris Grace as Scarlett Johanson and
that was a really good and really long, slightly too long,

(14:42):
and really bizarre trip.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
I don't know what this is. I mean, I know
all those all those words make sense, but I don't
know what you're talking about.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
So Chris Grace is an Asian actor who did a piece.
He did a one man show at the Edinburgh Fringe
Festival that Sam Reich, the owner of Dropout, saw and
wanted to put it as a part of their Dropout
stand Up Specials because they've got a bunch of comedy

(15:11):
specials and stand up specials they've been releasing lately. They've
all been phenomenal. And in it, Chris Grace talks about
casting issues in Hollywood. So Scarlett Johansson, like the main
character and ghost in the Shell, and they said, well,

(15:31):
this character is basically just a machine. It doesn't matter
what ethnicity she is. But if it doesn't matter, why
couldn't they make her Japanese Because that's where it's set,
That's what all the characters are, That's what her name is,
you know. And it so he he talks about her,
and then he puts on a wig, and then he's
Chris Grace as Scarlett Johansson, and then he's Scarlett Johansson.

(15:58):
Is Chris Grace as Scarlett Joe Hanson, and so like
he keeps leveling out because then he'll talk is as
Scarlet Johnson and it's really interesting. He talks about his
family and his encouragement and the things that he went
through as an Asian American actor, and also about how
like there's this real problem and yes, anybody should be
able to play anything, but not everybody can play everything,

(16:21):
and it is highly skewed in the favor of He
doesn't ever say it's highly skewed in the favor of
white people, but he's like the amount of Chinese food
delivery people he's had to audition A four is immense, right.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Well, yeah, and like you look at some of the
really notable characters that were the character is a different
ethnicity than white and still being played by a white actor.
Like I think of Remo Williams, which is the nineteen
eighties era action movie, kind of a comic bookie pulpy

(16:56):
action movie.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
They have.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
The stereotypical wisened Asian kung fu master played by Joel Gray.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
This is a great actor, but shouldn't have played that.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Role, right, right, So like that's the kind of thing though, right,
It's incredibly common if the character is of a certain
importance to the story, Very frequently you find a white
performer being cast to the point where that ends up
being part of the satire. In movies like Tropic Thunder,

(17:31):
where Robert Danny Junior is playing this Australian actor who
is white but he's playing a black man. It's satirizing
this tendency in Hollywood to cast white people as different
ethnicities and not seeing that there's an issue with that.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Yeah. Yeah, But then he goes into like his college
experience and kind of the like he had a college
professor tell me'd probably get more roles if he moved
to I think it was China, you know. Uh so
all of that, But then it talks about like he
was like so this person who did Ghost in the Shell,

(18:13):
who directed Ghost in the Shell also directed commercial that
he was in because he needed the money, you know,
or like he said he wasn't gonna cast an all
white cast, and then he'd put up a show and
he cast an all white cast, and so like. But
really it's it's he's like the end of it, and
it's still worth watching even I'm telling you. The end
of it is like, this is a problem. We need

(18:35):
to address it. We can't just forget about it. We
need to be more inclusive in all this other stuff.
But I also don't have an answer. So is it
irresponsible for me to bring it up as a problem
if I don't have an answer, and I'm a part
of the problem, but it gives real surreal at points.
It's real good. I will say all of Dropouts stand
up specials they've released so far, Chris Graces, Scarlet, Johansson,

(18:57):
Hank Green Pissing Out Cancer which is super informed too,
it's amazing. And Brennan and as He's Bigger have all
been like fire so awesome.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Well, I mean, you're just adding more things that I
have to watch now. I know.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Why can't you just sit on your couch and do
nothing else all day?

Speaker 2 (19:16):
I mean I did watch some stuff I watched. Well, no,
I didn't. I tried to watch Lisa Frankenstein.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Was it that bad?

Speaker 2 (19:25):
I wouldn't call it bad. It's not for me. So
here's the issue I have with Lisa Frankenstein. And again
I'm not saying it's bad. I think I think it
is a movie probably made for a different generation than
my own. I mean, I'm a gen xer, I'm old,

(19:46):
and and so I feel like this is a movie
set in a time when I'm like, oh, this is
set when I was like of high school age, or
maybe shortly booked after I was high school age, whatever,
right around that time, so I would think, oh, this
is gonna be like me like Stranger Things, where I'm like, oh,

(20:07):
but you're a nostalgia trip, except I was like, well,
first of all, I never had any experience as anything
like the party that's at the beginning of this movie
where people are are are drinking drinks spiked with PCP.
Never had that experience.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Me neither, and I yeah, but neither.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
But yeah, that was just one of the first things.
But like, the issues I had were I could not
tell tonally where this movie was gonna go, because the
premise on its own is very high concept and a
little zany, but then you've got some like really serious
stuff going on, like handling the death of a parent,

(20:49):
dealing with like sexual assault, like it's it's like some
grim stuff. And part of it was me thinking, oh, well,
maybe they're satirizing nineteen eighties era comedies, right, because if
you watch comedies from the nineteen eighties, particularly the more racy,
raunchy ones, there's a lot of like sexual harassment type

(21:10):
stuff that's just played off for laughs, like that's just
that's just the joke, And when you view it through
a more enlightened lens, it's just horrifying. It's not funny,
it's just it's just disgusting, right, And to be clear,
it was disgusting then, it's just that it was not
socially acknowledged as such, yet it was thought of as

(21:33):
being hilarious. See also Revenge of the Nerds. That's like
the quintessential example of how horrible this can get. Right. So, anyway,
there's something like that that happens early in the movie,
and I was like, is this are they satirizing the
kind of stuff that was done in the eighties as
a joke and they're showing like, whoa, this isn't funny,

(21:55):
this is really awful, And I couldn't tell. So tonally
I was not really sure. I couldn't because there were
parts of it where it was like leaning toward comedy
and other parts where it's leaning well away from comedy.
And ultimately I dropped out. I just couldn't. I couldn't
continue because I could not. I couldn't. I didn't understand

(22:18):
how I was intended to interpret the film, and instead
of being a smart person and seeing it through, I
was like, I have a limited number of hours on
this earth. I'm gonna watch something else. But then you
know what the other thing I watched was, because I've
told you already and arguably I wasted my time even more.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Which is Borderlands, which is again the fact that you
found So John then told me he watched it and
he was like, I shouldn't have I was there any redeeming?
And you said that there was nothing redeeming?

Speaker 2 (22:50):
No, there's not. It's it's so here's the thing. Is
it one of those movies where you're just like, like
like the room where you're you're just boggled by the choices,
where you're like, none of this makes sense? What were
they thinking? No, Borderlands is not like that. It's like
a science fiction action. I'll put comedy in air quotes,

(23:17):
and I do that because very little in the movie
even gets close to approaching being funny. It's just dull,
like all this stuff is happening and I didn't care once,
and a lot of other people have talked about this,
so I'll keep it fairly short. But at no time
do you feel that any of the characters are really

(23:37):
in peril. There's one moment where a character appears to
be totally overwhelmed and is left behind, and literally the
next scene, they're okay, like you don't even have to wait.
Just it's like, well, sure, glad I got out of
that one. I'm like what And none of the characters

(23:59):
were cast correctly, like no one felt like the character
that they were portraying from Borderlands, and they weren't interesting
enough to be to stand on their own as their
own kind of character, right, So, like, not only did
they not resemble the Borderlands version of the character, they
weren't unique or interesting enough to be a new take.

(24:22):
It was just kind of like an empty shell that
dresses like and is named like a character that's from Borderlands. Yeah,
I was really, I mean I knew I had very
low expectations going into it, and I was just kind
of flabbergasted that this thing ever got a theatrical release

(24:46):
at all, because it felt like the kind of thing
that ultimately would just go to streaming because it just
wasn't I guess the IP kind of was enough to
get it into theaters, but it was just or.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
The level of actors they put in it.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
Well true, yeah, like they have some and like great actors,
but they had nothing to do and no one was
really I didn't feel like anyone was doing a great job,
with the exception of the actor who played Marcus, who
it's a little supporting role. It was barely in the movie,
but he felt like it, like it was the perfect casting.

(25:22):
It might have actually been the voice actor. I don't know,
but anyway, because it sounded just like him from the game,
but I was I.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Was hoping it would be closer to Taylor Gates's review
of Taylor Gates is someone who writes for Collider dot
com and he thought that Arianna Green, black Jack Black
and Green black Jack Black, and Jamie Lee Curtis Man,
that's a good tongue twister. Yeah, did well, but that
they didn't have any plot, plot lines or character development.

(25:52):
And he said there were a few effective swiss and
surprises too, but again not enough.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
See, I didn't find anything a twist a surprise, Like
there were things that were revealed in the movie, but
none of those revelations seemed at all to be so like,
if you had played the game, you're gonna be like, well,
of course, like, yes, that's who this character is. That's
not a surprise. If you hadn't played the game, but

(26:19):
you had seen a movie before, and I don't care
what movie it is. If you had seen a movie,
you would have seen what was coming a mile away,
and you're like, yes, because they are hammering it home
so hard that it's impossible to miss this. You don't
have to be observant at all to figure it out. Yeah,

(26:42):
it's it's like. Even the soundtrack I didn't think was good,
which is crazy because like, ain't No Rest for the Wicked,
which I think was the Borlands two opening song was
such a great choice for that game, Like it just
worked perfectly. None of the soundtrack stuff really worked in
this one. I was sad that Gina Garson as Mad

(27:04):
Moxie didn't seem like a good fit either. She looked great,
but it didn't feel like the character. It was fun
to see Jessica Nigri the cosplayer the cosplayer slash cheesecake
model playing a silent extra in the background of Moxie's
because she actually gets a decent amount of camera time

(27:26):
for an extra.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
Yeah, what did you That is interesting? Sorry, I'm a
little throwne because this was supposed to be my first
first thirty second or less story.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Oh yeah, you can still talk about it, just because
I didn't like it, Like I yeah, because that was
just my reaction. I will say also, I mean, I'm
not proud of this, but I saw it for free.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Oh you tired of it?

Speaker 2 (27:57):
I mean not, that's like, that's good. I would argue
that's going a bit far. It was uploaded in its
entirety to YouTube gotcha in full like, and it wasn't
It wasn't like a cell phone grab of a screening
or anything. This was the movie.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
I wonder if it's still up.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
I'm sure someone's taking it down at this point. I
just saw it was there and I was like, I
shouldn't do this. This is wrong, But then so was
making the movie.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
I don't think it was wrong. You know, sometimes you
try things and they flop and you learn. Hopefully that's
what happened. So let's let's go into thirty.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Seconds or less.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Let's do it, and we're gonna start with Porderlands is
free or not free. Pornlands is available to watch it
home now. On August thirtieth, it moved to premium video
on demand. It looks like you can get it on
Pluto and Apple TV. I'm sure you can also probably
rent it through the Amazon, but I'm.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Not certain that's it on YouTube, uld say, or it
could just be on YouTube. Probably.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
I do not condone watching cinema that you should pay
for for free.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Neither do I like if this had been if I
just waited, like probably not even long, like a couple
of weeks, I'm sure it would be on one of
the streaming services I subscribe to. So yeah, I should
have just waited. But here's my next one. Do you
remember Ultron and the MCU. Sure he was the bad
guy and probably what was the worst of the Avengers films,

(29:34):
but he was also voiced by James Spader, so I
think it all evens out. Anyway, Ultron will be back
in the upcoming and as yet untitled Vision series, a
spin off of One Division. And if you were thinking,
but wait, Vision died an endgame, then you need to
watch One Division seriously, or none of this is gonna
make any sense.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
It's also just really good. If you were a fan
of Channing Tatum as Gambit, you might be in luck.
Ryan Reynolds posted on social media recently a deleted scene
of at the end of the Deadpool Wolvery movie of
Gambit looking and seeing some sparkled circles aka Doctor strange circles,

(30:19):
which reflected in his eyes in a slight like roguish
smile like Gambit is wont to do so that he
might be They left the door open for him to
come back in future MCU stuff. Nothing's been confirmed, but
it's delightful and in fact, a clip of that was
playing on a TVA monitor at a certain point in
the movie. Sorry, I should have led that this might

(30:41):
be spoilers.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Well, great to have the spoiler warning after the spoiler,
Well the one put it in the front. I am
not editing that out. The one thing I learned from
Patrick Starr from SpongeBob is that nothing rhymes with rock.
But soon Patrick will be able to teach me how
to do lots of other stuff like cartwheel through enemies,
smash things with an enormous mallet, and sling taxi cabs

(31:06):
are out. That's because Patrick is getting his own Vigia
game for the Nintendo Switch, fittingly called the Patrick Star Game.
It's scheduled to release on October four.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
Star Trek Starfleet Academy has begun production and they posted
a picture of They say this article on slash film
says the whole cast, but it is absolutely not the
whole cast, and everybody looks super excited. We learned that
Holly Hunter and Paul Giamati are going to be a
part of this show, so that's super exciting. I just

(31:42):
want to see Robert Piccardo and tig Nataro in every
scene together. Ever, I feel like their their level of
snark slash dry delivery would be amazing, So agreed.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
One mystery that will go unsolved is what will the
Dead Boy Detectives do in season two? Because there will
be no season two. The series that originally was meant
for Max but ended up on Netflix has now ended
its run. It performed well with critics and fairly well
with viewers, So why aren't we getting a season two? Well,
my guess is part of that maybe due to the

(32:17):
scandals surrounding Neil Gaiman, the co creator of those characters.
He is at the center of several disturbing accusations that
make me both angry and sad.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
I've missed those. I'll have to ask you about those later.
But speaking of Boy Detectives, what are Dead They're re
releasing a Sherlock Holmes film. It is being filmed for
the first time since its release in nineteen twenty two
in October at the BFI London Film Festival. It's a

(32:49):
silent film. It's called The Golden pinch Nez, where Sherlock
finds a women's pair of pinch Nez glasses and then
investigates murder. That's just kind of crazy that this movie
hasn't been filmed for one hundred years and it's being
taken out of the archives. I hope it holds up.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
As part of her now lifelong journey to make people
forget that she was in Borderlands. Kate Blanchett is starring
in an upcoming film called Rumors. It is not a
movie adaptation of the Fleetwood Back album, but rather some
sort of sci fi slash horror slash comedy slash political
satire movie in which a group of world leaders who
are attending a summit get lost in the woods, try

(33:32):
to avoid a monster that may or may not be
a giant brain, and still try to solve the world's problems.

Speaker 1 (33:40):
That kind of sounds fun. In an effort to try
to erase her participation in Borderlands, Sigourney Weaver, no, I'm kidding,
Sigourney Weaver was not a part of Borderlands, but she
is going to be a part of Mandalorian and Grogu
the movie. She hasn't talked much about her part, but
she'll be filming before she goes to play Prosper in
the Teen in December.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
Here's hoping that that movie gets a different title. I
have officially gone from being mildly curious about the upcoming
he Man live action film to eagerly awaiting the first
trailer of that film. What caught my attention, Well, we
found out this week that comedy genius and dreamboat actress
Alison Brie will be playing the wicked evil Len. I

(34:24):
have no idea what kind of energy she's going to
bring to this movie, but I am here for it.
So does this mean we're going to get a campy,
scenery chewing he Man film? Good Golly? I hope so
me too.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
I told Jonathan, I think she's going to be similar
to her character in Glow, which is not for kids,
but she kind of plays a heel in that. She
just plays a heel in that. Anyhow, speaking of heels
and stuff, Creature Commandos has a release date, which is
a team I guess full of heels. They don't wrestle
as far as I know it comes out in December fifth,

(35:00):
and we will get seven episodes in the first season,
so that is fun.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
If you aren't happy with the direction of the Game
of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon, you are
not the only one. George R. Martin took a break
from not finishing his novel series to write a blog
post complaining about the show. It was titled Beware the Butterflies,
referencing the butterfly effect, or how a small choice can
cascade into large consequences. Essentially, it boils down to the

(35:31):
series removing a small but pivotal character. Martin has since
deleted the post. But nothing's ever really gone, is it.
That's crazy?

Speaker 1 (35:40):
And for the next last story in thirty seconds or less,
the Duffer brothers are working on their next project once
for once, Stranger Things has ended. It is called The Burrows,
and we have now learned that it's going to have
an incredible cast Alfred Molina, Bill Pulman, Gina Davis, Clark, Peters,
Dennis O'Hair, Alfred. It's about people who live in a

(36:05):
retirement community and then it's infiltrated by a dark force.
So that's fun.

Speaker 2 (36:12):
Wow, that's well sounds amazing. Also, it's like.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
The upside down of Stranger Things. It's all retirees and
so I can's.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
Yeah, just going the opposite. And also Dennis O'Hare man,
I he played my He played Ghetto in stage production
of Assassins across from Neil Patrick Harris and did an
amazing job. So I became a fan of his upon that,
and then really liked his work in American Horror Story.

(36:43):
Even though I did not like American Horror Story, but
I loved his performance in it. Okay, my last story.
Y'all might remember that some sag AFTER Union members who
work in video games as voice actors and motion capture
performers have been on strike while trying to negotiate agreements
with various video game companies. So one of the really

(37:03):
big issues is artificial intelligence, in the possibility of companies
using AI to replicate voices and motion actors that kind
of thing. Well, the union has successfully negotiated with most
of the companies and those productions can go back into work.
There are still some holdouts, however, notably Warner Brothers, Disney,

(37:23):
and EA Solidarity union members.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah, those companies know better and should do better.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Yes, Okay, well that is our thirty seconds or less,
or a bunch of them, and you might think, oh,
that must mean that they don't have a whole lot
to talk about in the back half of the episode,
and you'd be wrong.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
Yeah, but we're going to have to kind of go
through it a little quickly because I have to do
a few other things.

Speaker 2 (37:54):
Yes, and it is after it's almost four o'clock as
we record this, so okay, well, yeah, first up, let's
just do this one super fast. We got an announcement
for a game called Mars Attracts and it's based off
the ip for Mars Attacks, which originally was a series
of trading cards from Tops and then was adapted into

(38:19):
a film by Tim Burton, a movie that I don't
think very many people liked that much.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
I saw it for the first time this fourth of July.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
What did you think?

Speaker 1 (38:34):
It was ridiculous?

Speaker 2 (38:35):
Yeah, it's just it's so weirdly paced.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
But it's supposed to be funky in campy, and so
I accepted it for what it was. I'm sure if
I had seen it when it first came out, I
would not have enjoyed it as much, because I wouldn't
have known what I was getting into. I just it
could be a fun take on the whole roller coaster
Tycoon game.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
Yeah, that's essentially why it is. I didn't actually mentioned that,
but yeah, it's it's essentially that you're making an amusement park.
The Martians are making amusement parks, and humans are often
like like almost tree like zoo animals in the trailer
that we saw, So yeah, that's coming out. I mean,
I'll i'd definitely give it a shot. I love those

(39:19):
roller coaster Tycoon games, those amusement park simulator games. I'm
not good at them, but I enjoy them.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
There was another movie I watched over fourth of July.
Now I can't remember what it was.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
What was it? Was it Sophie's Choice? No, in terms
of endearment, No.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
You know what. It was around the time that we
took a break for the show. So it's not even
in our notes.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
Well, of course it wouldn't be in our notes. That's like,
I don't know why we're even going down this money trail,
but I'm willing to jump down it with you on.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
It was another like geeky, geeky thing that I should
have watched a long time ago that was very, very
different in style. I don't remember. Okay, it does bonds. No,
I saw that a long time ago. Okay, something else
I don't remember despite watching it twelve twice. Who apparently
it took my ability to speak? Is the Sonic the

(40:17):
Hedgehog three trailer?

Speaker 2 (40:19):
Yeah, we got a look at Shadow, which is the
new villain. Not new because he exists in the series,
but new to the films. Yeah, because I think every
film is all about introducing at least one new character,
and they can't do all of them at once because
then they would run out of material for sequels. I

(40:42):
have never watched either of the Sonic the Hedgehog films,
and I don't know. I get the feeling that if
I did, maybe the first one would appeal to me
the most, but each subsequent film looks less interesting to me.
But that's me. What did you think about this trailer?

Speaker 1 (41:00):
Same pretty much. I The first couple looked okay, this
one it's it feels like ace Ventura in a Sonic
a Hedgehog shell.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Probably because Jim Carrey shows up and does a lot
of mugging to the camera.

Speaker 1 (41:22):
Yeah, Jim Carrey does his Jim Carrey thing in a
way that I just never really loved, like with humor
that is falling flat to me. Uh and Keanu Reeves
voices Shadow, but just uh yeah, it just didn't grab me.
Like I said, I watched the trailer twice. I other
than Jim Carrey being a dork and me going, I

(41:43):
don't even remember that Shadows spoke, who's the voice actor?
Like that's what I remember the.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Trailer until you said Keanu Reeves, I honestly didn't know
that he was voicing the character because it didn't stand
out to me when I watched the trailer. Knowing it,
maybe I would have picked it out much more quickly.
But I'm also to be fair, I'm also not always
the best with voices. Occasionally I'll hear one and I'll say, oh,
I know exactly who that is, and I'll be right.

(42:09):
But more often than not, it'll be one of those like, oh, yeah,
that was Ben Schwartz, Like what Like, I didn't recognize
that voice at all? Another voice actor in Sonic the
Hedgehog movies. We also got a trailer that made both
of us get a little teary eyed. It was for
Super slash Man. The Christopher Reeve Story. It's documentary about

(42:33):
Christopher Reeve, who of course played Superman in the nineteen
seventy eight film adaptation live action film adaptation. Christopher Reeve
pretty phenomenal actor, like he was in some other stuff
that like. Actually, I think the thing I like him
in the most apart from Superman is Noises Off, the

(42:54):
movie adaptation of Noises Off. He's fantastic in it and
really entertaining to watch. And of course, tragically he was paralyzed.
He became a quadriplegic after an accident where he was
thrown from a horse, and the rest of his life

(43:16):
was kind of spent in activism and kind of dealing
with reality post accident. And this documentary appears to really
explore all that. And I mean it's an extremely emotional trailer.
I can only imagine I'll be an emotional wreck if
I watched the documentary.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Yeah, I cried very much through the trailer. I also
cried in the trailer when they talked about Christopher Reeves
and Robin Williams being friends. Yeah, it looks very good.
James Gunn watched it and said it's really good. So
I look forward to seeing it. I'm gonna have to

(43:55):
be in the right mood though.

Speaker 2 (43:57):
Yeah, I mean it's gonna be one where you need
to have the Kleenex near at hand.

Speaker 1 (44:01):
Yeah. I do appreciate that, after his very unfortunate injury,
that he pushed along and decided to help others, that
is being Superman.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Yeah. I remember because I was still watching Smallville when
he had a guest appearance, and he would ultimately have
a few guest appearances on that show, and I remember
watching that episode and when he shows up, the nineteen
seventy eight John Williams theme for Superman just very softly

(44:37):
plays in the background, and I just lost it.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
Yeah, yeah, I lost it a lot less. For the
Terminator zero animated series.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
Trailer, Yeah, it wasn't nearly as emotional, even though there
were some like clear call outs to iconic moments in
the Terminator franchise, including like the thumbs up as you're
sinking into mold metal. I thought, I thought it looked
I mean like it made me Actually, it made me
think that maybe it would be good for future Terminator

(45:11):
stories to be animated, because because as I watched those,
like why aren't there more animated sequels to Terminator? Those
look like better to me than many of the live
action films that have recently come out.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Yeah, it looked good. It was kind of scary, and
you can actually watch it now because it came out
on August twenty ninth.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Yeah, because we we skipped a week. But yeah, that one, like,
I do need to watch that one. I didn't even
realize it was out, and it's right there in our notes.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
Yep, yep, just add it to the list.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
Yeah, I should have. I should have probably struck that
story from our lineup just because it's so out of date.

Speaker 1 (45:50):
I need to add it to my list too, so
I appreciate it. I keep a list of shows and
movies what I've said I want to watch, so when
I go I'm done on something, what do I want
to watch? I have a list.

Speaker 2 (46:01):
Yeah that's good because otherwise you can just do that
thing where you're just browsing endlessly and you never watch anything.
That happens to me a lot.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
Yeah, I forget about my list about fifty percent of
the time. But something I will not forget about, though,
is season three of Vox Macana, which I think comes
out in October. We got a full trailer for it.
I so I never listened to the actual plays of
Vox Macana. I'm doing the mighty nine, so I know

(46:33):
that there's some sad stuff that happens. It's alluded to
in the trailer, and then they also go to hell,
but they make that look kind of fun, so I'm
just excited.

Speaker 2 (46:42):
Yeah, there's a I I've spoiled this for me in
the sense that because I've never watched a full episode
of Critical Role, I just I haven't sat down to
but I've watched a lot of excerpts, and often when
I did, I would end up going and reading up
on more information because I was like, I don't really

(47:03):
fully understand what they were referencing or whatever. And through
that I learned about some of the things that are
going to unfold in that season. And yeah, there are
some big, big story beats that are you know, have
like a lot of emotional heft to them, so I'll
be interested to hear what the reaction is. I still

(47:24):
haven't watched. I watched the first episode of the first season,
but I have not watched a full season of Vox
Machina yet.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
It takes it takes. You have to get past the
first episode. I think by the second or third I
was super into it.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
Yeah, that first episode was kind of a clunker for me,
honestly because it was, like, you know, that episode obviously
it's supposed to serve as the onboarding for the viewer, right,
You're supposed to like kind of get a feel for
who these characters are and what they're all about. And honestly,
by the end of the first episode, I still wasn't
really sure who the characters were and what they were about.

(48:01):
I could just all I could say was like, they're
rowdy and rude.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
Like it. It does tie into the rest of the season,
but it feels very different from the rest of the season.
To me, I would say keep it on your list,
try to finish it, because the good moments are really
really good.

Speaker 2 (48:23):
I'll definitely go back to it. One thing, so we're
getting into some horror movies. This isn't the end of
the episode because I know to.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
Forgive it since we're in September now.

Speaker 2 (48:33):
Well, and I also I put in the notes that
you don't have to watch them if you don't want to,
And so I was going to ask you, did you
watch the trailer for Terrifier three?

Speaker 1 (48:45):
I put it on and then I put it on
super fast and then I clicked through and about the
shower seat or the shower or bathroom stall scene, I went, nope,
I'm done.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
Okay, So the answer to my question was, know, you didn't.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
Watch it like a quarter of it.

Speaker 2 (49:04):
So Terrifier it's a series of horror films. The antagonist
is Art the clown, who came from a short film
and also another horror movie, kind of like an anthology story.
He was featured in that and grew into these slasher
movies that I don't think are very good. I have
seen the first two and I don't think they're very

(49:26):
good movies. They are very reliant on violence and gore,
and I don't find them horrifying so much as gross.
And I'm not saying there's not a place for that,
but it doesn't appeal to me as a horror fan,
like I prefer horror movies that are genuinely tense and

(49:47):
atmospheric and scary, and I don't find the Terrifier movies
to be terrifying. I just find them to be really grotesque.
So this film, the trailer looks very much in the
same way it is interest because the protagonist from part
two is the protagonist or appears to be the protagonist
for part three. That's interesting because if you watch part

(50:09):
one and you go to part two, you know the
character from part one is not the protagonist for part
two because of the end of part one. That's that's
as much vague booking as I'm willing to do for
this series. That doesn't I don't think merit it. If
you're if you are a fan of Terrifier, that's awesome.
I hope you really enjoy Terrifier three. Again, I don't

(50:30):
think there. I don't think it's really a bad movie.
It's just a movie that doesn't really work for me.
I will say though, that the production value definitely goes
up each with each film. This Terrifier three looks more
like a real movie than either one or two did.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Kind of kind of like the product production value for
the company that does, like Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey,
goes up each each movie.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Yeah, because the next story we have is the trailer
for Peter Pan's never Land Nightmare. Did you watch this trailer?

Speaker 1 (51:06):
Like fifty percent?

Speaker 2 (51:09):
You could have made it all the way through this.
The reason why I said that you wanted to skip
this one too. Was not because I thought it was
going to be too scary for you, but because I
happened to know that Peter Pan is one of your
favorite characters, and I wasn't sure that you would appreciate
a horror movie that twists that character to becoming a

(51:29):
slasher villain.

Speaker 1 (51:30):
I mean, Disney twisted him to be not a complete
and total butthole, so because he's kind of scary in
the book. But I mean I watched enough of it,
I know what happens. I think I just kind of
skipped through a little bit. There was a comment that
said that Peter Pan was just Freddy Krueger meets Jason
meets like Phantom of the Opera or the Crow or

(51:54):
something like that. It was a very funny comment. I
wish I remembered it now.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
I was getting more like Pied Piper, you know, like
the character who leads all the children away, mixed with
Freddy Krueger. Like that was kind of the vibe I
was getting. But yeah, the production value on this movie,
like you said, was looked like it looked like a
real film, as opposed to the Winnie the Pooh movies
look like I've got a decent high resolution digital video camera.

(52:24):
Let's shoot a movie.

Speaker 1 (52:26):
Yeah, and they said it was The Joker, the Crow,
and Freddy Krueger, which.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
I could kind of see what they're talking.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
About, just in the way that the head actor look.

Speaker 2 (52:36):
Yeah. Yeah, I didn't. Uh. This one didn't appeal to
me either, but it appealed to me more than the
Winnie the Pooh movie did. Like, I saw this trailer
and thought, I don't really feel the need to go
and see this either. It's not not grabbing me, but
it at least looks like a real movie, and maybe

(52:58):
that would be enough to get me curious to watch it.
But I still have no desire to watch the Winnie
the Pooh ones.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
Yeah, yeah, saying I don't think I have desire to
watch this, but I do think it looks better. I
also have no desire to watch the Winny the Pooh ones.
I think those are ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:15):
I did like the next scary trailer though, a lot
for Die Alone, Die Alone with Carrie.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
Anne Moss Like, I like that, you're stressing that. But
we've cut the part where I know where people would
to understand why.

Speaker 1 (53:31):
So we cut this thing where I was talking about
an interview with Deborah Ann Wall and how she feels
a lot of anxiety. And it was because I made
a mistake and Johnathy called me out and then I
stuck my foot in my mouth further. Anyhow, it was
very funny. I'm sorry you'll never get to hear it.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
But uh, she just yeah, you called Deborah and Wall.
You called her carry Anne Moss because another three named actor.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
And yeah, and I had just watched and read the
name Carrie Anne Moss.

Speaker 2 (53:57):
Right, And I can't criticize you for that, because good
knows there are countless times where I've used the wrong
name for somebody, like ninety nine times out of one hundred.
If it happens on the show, I'm the one doing it.

Speaker 1 (54:10):
And to be fair, Deborrah and Wall on Daredevil plays
Karen Page, and Karen is close to Carrie, and.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Carrie and Moss was in Jessica Jones.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
She was I forgot.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
Yeah, she was the lawyer chick.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
That's right, that's right, so so easy to you know,
their cousins essentially.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
Yeah, same person really when you get down to it.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
But Carrie and Moss also played Trinity in the Matrix. Yes,
and great actress. This trailer is looks it the trailer
at very face value, is this kind of she's not
old but older woman. She's not a teenager like a
lot of horror movies have. Yeah, rescues this young boy

(54:57):
who has amnesia, who's looking for a girl that he
was traveling with and got separated from it.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
When you say young boy, you really mean young man.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
Young man. He's a teenager or young adult after they
gotten an accident during I guess like a zombie virus
outbreak thing where people are getting turned into tree zombies.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
It looks like, yeah, it's they're called the Reclaimed because
the earth appears to be reclaiming people's bodies to become
part of nature. Like the idea being that we pushed
nature so hard that now the earth is pushing back.
That's kind of the the vibe I got. And Carrie
Anne Moss plays like a rugged lone survivor type.

Speaker 1 (55:42):
Yeah, there's a little bit humor in it. It's very dry,
but it looks good. It looks like a fun, suspenseful
take on a zombie movie, which is how zombies were
intended to be kind of in the first place.

Speaker 2 (55:58):
And it still also seems to have a hint of
that you don't know who you can trust among the living.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Yeah. I had to stop myself from saying that it's
got a misery vibe to it, because I don't know
that it does, but that's my suspicion.

Speaker 2 (56:14):
Well, yeah, it doesn't look quite as cynical as something
like The Walking Dead, but there's still an element of
that right where once you get past I mean even honestly,
even Nia the Living Dead. Ultimately, the lesson of Nither
Living Dead is you can't trust the living because that

(56:35):
lesson isn't really the forefront of that story through most
of it, although there is like disagreement within the house
among the survivors, but the conclusion of neither living Dead
certainly drills home. Yeah, the dead or a problem. These
ghouls are a problem, but you really can't trust the living.

(56:56):
Everything since then has taken that idea and cranked up
the fat so hard that the scream bleeds.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Yeah, yeah, but this looks good. I will probably actually
watch this. I might even go to the theater to
watch this one.

Speaker 2 (57:11):
Yeah. Well, if you do, let me know, because I'm
willing to go see a horror movie. I'm kind of
curious to see how Aeriel reacts to horror movies.

Speaker 1 (57:19):
Look, you'll never You'll never get to see my best reaction,
which is during signs in the in the Kid's Birthday
party scene where I stood up in the front of
the feet theater onto my feet and screamed.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
Well, here's hoping I don't because I think I would
probably turn beat red and then pass out.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
It was It was a full theater too. We were
in the front row because there were no other scenes.

Speaker 2 (57:42):
Well, I think, I think, how will we talk about
a different horror movie where if you scream, I doubt
it will be because you were scared.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
Yeah, So Screamboat, which is based off of Steamboat Willie
Gone Evil? I suppose, yeah, has it. It's got to
be a teaser trailer. They don't. They barely show you anything.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
Yeah, but it's more than like you remember we got
that one teaser that was like almost nothing where it
was just like that was like.

Speaker 1 (58:10):
AI generated, yeah, witches almost.

Speaker 2 (58:12):
Yeah, And now we've got like a slightly more substantial teaser.
It looks terrible, Like we all knew this was coming
because once Steamboat Willie went into the public domain, obviously,
lots of different people pounced on the potential of finally
being able to get their grubby little hands on Mickey
Mouse to do things that Disney never would do with

(58:35):
their most valuable IP. And it's just the Steamboat Willie
version of Mickey Mouse that's in the public domain right now,
and over time, other versions of Mickey Mouse will also
enter the public domain, but right now that's the only one.
So this horror movie is just someone trying to cash
in on yeah, that fact, and it looks like that's

(58:59):
how much thought went into the film itself. It just
does not look good. And I don't say this as
a Disney defender. If they were able to make something
that was really like kind of twisted and was able
to satirize Disney, especially the company Disney, like being able
to like satirize the corporation of Disney, and how the corporation, uh,

(59:22):
you know, operating a corporation while simultaneously trying to maintain
kind of like a family friendly persona is like really
hard to do because the two are not in alignment. Right.

Speaker 1 (59:37):
They've done some pretty not great stuff lately.

Speaker 2 (59:40):
Yeah, So if that had been like, if I had
gotten any hint of that in this trailer, I would
have said, well, that's at least interesting, but I'm not
getting any of that. It just looks like it looks
like a bog standard kind of monster slash slasher movie
with bad effects and costumes.

Speaker 1 (59:58):
They didn't even You can tell they didn't put thought
into it because at one point there's a scared girl
looking down I guess a steam pipe or something from
the top of the boat down and there's a crunching
noise and that's supposed to be creepy, like maybe steamboat
Willy is eating somebody, but it's a crunching noise as
if you had human teeth. It did not at all
sound like a mouse gnawing on someone.

Speaker 2 (01:00:19):
Yeah, as far as we know, Mickey Mouse was just
down there with a bag of Doritos go into town. Yeah,
it was for the Everything was bad, Yes, So we
have no high expectations for that movie. If we're lucky,
it'll be so bad that it'll become a cult classic.
But I don't have that confidence yet.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
If if we're lucky, maybe it'll make you just a
little bit smile.

Speaker 2 (01:00:46):
Maybe it'll make you smile too.

Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
So we got an actual trailer for Smile to the
scary movie about a woman who has this Smile demon
following her. This trailer is much more effective than the
teaser trailer we talked about a while ago. This one
actually made me a little bit scared and actually made
me feel like there was some plot.

Speaker 2 (01:01:07):
Yeah, a little bit. Yeah, totally agree. Yeah, because like
I watched the first Smile and I thought it was
a decent, demonic kind of storyline horror movie. I didn't
think it was great, but I thought it was decent, Like,
which is you know, actually saying a lot because there's
Horror is one of those genres where the bar of
entry is pretty low. You can typically make pretty low

(01:01:29):
budget horror movies, so that tends to be especially where
a lot of first time filmmakers go right like they're
trying to make a movie. Horror is one of those
genres where you can kind of get an entry point,
which means that you get a lot of really crappy
horror movies. You get some good ones too, But and
I think Smile was decent, not great, but decent. We

(01:01:50):
got the teaser for Smile too, and I agree with you, Ariel.
When I first saw that teaser, I was like, oh,
I think they're just treading water. This doesn't look like
it's going to be as good as the first one.
This trailer, I think, definitely does a lot better. For
one thing, I like the protagonist. She's like a musician,

(01:02:10):
like a pop star, and I kind of was digging
her performance. Not that we got to see a lot
of it, but the bit we saw, I kind of
liked the vibe she was creating.

Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
Yeah, because she was it seems that they made her
an intelligent character. Yeah, which was you know, she wasn't
playing into the pop star diva or the pop star dance.
She just she seemed really grounded despite her circumstances, And
I feel like that's very important when you are living
in extreme, ungrounded circumstances to make it believable. So yeah,

(01:02:45):
fantastic job.

Speaker 2 (01:02:45):
I agree, absolutely, Yeah, No, that's good insight. So yeah,
this one, I mean, I don't know that I'll see it.
Maybe I'll see it in the theater with friend of
the show, Shay Lee, because she loves horror movies, so
maybe we'll go see it. Although demonic movie are that's
one of her ick points. If it's a if it's
a movie with demons, then that can be an issue,

(01:03:06):
and if it's a movie with child endangerment, that's a
that's a that's a nope, that's a write out Nope.
So we'll have to see, but I thought, you know,
it has potential. Next up, we have a movie with
Amy Adams that's based off a novel. It is titled
Night Bitch, and uh, on the surface, it's it's it's

(01:03:29):
a movie about a woman dealing with the realities of
being a mother and having to navigate a world that
often can be very unfriendly toward mothers. Beneath that, however,
there's the possibility that she does, upon occasion, turn into
a dog.

Speaker 1 (01:03:49):
Yeah, but I don't know if that's true or not,
or if she just imagines it. There is one moment
in the trailer where like she's talking to maybe her husband,
I think, Who's like, you gotta choose happiness, and she
slaps him and then he says you got to choose
happiness and she just smiles and says, Okay. That makes
me wonder if all of this is kind of in
her brain right.

Speaker 2 (01:04:08):
It Like it kind of has that scrubs thing where
you're like you're like, oh, what I was watching was
just her imagining. I get that right, Like, there's so
many times in the day where I'm just like imagining
myself giving someone a good kick to the how's it going?
And I don't actually kick anyone anywhere in the how's
it going? Or otherwise, but in my head I did.

(01:04:31):
And I'm thinking, well, yeah, like you said, this could
be a case where the film explores this issue of
mothers navigating a world that frequently can be hostile toward
them and uses the dog thing as kind of a
a metaphor or whatever, or yeah, maybe it's actually what's happening.

(01:04:55):
I don't know yet, I actually can. I hope that
they don't answer it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Me too, me too, you know. And I do think
it is important. I say this as a person who
is not a mother, but I have helped raise a
lot of children, and you know, it's not for not trying.
But I know I've had a lot of friends and
a lot of other people who kind of not just
because of society but also just because of personal time

(01:05:20):
and pressures, lose their identity when they have kids. So
I do think it's important to have that support because
much like in a romantic relationship where you can't rely
on the other person to completely complete you. I would
imagine with kids, you still have to make sure that
you hold on to what is uniquely you and makes

(01:05:41):
you happy to Yeah, I mean, your kid obviously hopefully
would be making you happy.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
But well, yeah, and like so much of your life,
by necessity has to be focused upon and dedicated to
your child, or at least should be, because your child
needs to have that parent and that advocate and that protector.
Like all those things are are roles that a child needs.
And uh and so, like you know, we don't have

(01:06:06):
kids either, but we every friend we've had who has
had kids, we're still i would say, we're still friends
with them. We just never talk to them or see
them or do anything with them anymore because they're lives
by necessity, end up becoming more about the kids than
anything else. Again, I think that's the way it should be.
But it also means that that comes with consequences, and

(01:06:29):
one of those is, as you say, the chance of
you losing your own identity in the process.

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
Yeah. Yeah, So I'm interested to see how they handle this.
I'm very interested to really see more about the movie.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Yeah. And and Amy Adams looks like she's acting her
butt off in it like it looks it looks intense. Yeah.
So people who are acting their blockie butts off are
the subject of our next trailer, the one that looked
border Lands and said hold my beer.

Speaker 1 (01:07:03):
Yeah. So, way back when the pandemic was in full, full,
full swing, at the beginning of its full full swing,
they talked about a Minecraft movie coming.

Speaker 2 (01:07:14):
Out called Minecraft Movie.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
Back Minecraft, the movie where Jack Black would be voicing Steve.
And that's all we knew.

Speaker 2 (01:07:24):
And now we have a teaser.

Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
Yeah, and I never expected what I watched.

Speaker 2 (01:07:29):
Never.

Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
The chances are, if you are listening to this podcast
and you're the kind of person who likes pop culture,
you have already seen this trailer. But just in case
you haven't, uh, we don't get a whole lot. It
is a teaser. It has a group of humans, actual
human beings, real live action humans, entering into the blocky

(01:07:52):
world of Minecraft, and then Steve manifests in front of them.
But Steve is not a blocky Minecraft character. Steve is
just Jack Black in a turquoise shirt being Steve.

Speaker 1 (01:08:08):
Yeah, and it looks like the pig Man or Piglands
or the Villains or whatever. I don't like it is
so cartoony and weird, but not even like Minecraft cartoony
is just ugly cartoony. And then the I was about

(01:08:28):
to say the rock, but it's not the rock? Is she?
Samama has the worst wig on? I'm assuming it's a wig.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
Yeah, I told Arielsson, I can't wait for all the
body shaming commentary to come out because he's wearing clothes
that do not show any definition. So like he looks
I mean, I wouldn't call it dad bod because God,
I would kill for that body. But but he doesn't.
You know, he's not jacked like he would be an

(01:08:54):
aquaman or something, right, Like, he doesn't look like that.
So I'm guessing that we're going to get that just
because everyone associates Jason Momoa with being a big old
slab of man meet and he doesn't quite look like.
I mean, he's a huge dude, but he doesn't look
like that in the at least in this trailer.

Speaker 1 (01:09:12):
No, he's kind of dressed like Randy Machaman Savage on
a very covered up day.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
Yeah, yeah, just on a down day. He's not gonna
get slammed or have to drop an elbow on anybody.
Maybe he'll snap into a slim gem. We don't know.
I yeah, I have seen pretty much universally a series
of reactions to this that range from a, Oh, I

(01:09:37):
don't think i'll see this too? What were they thinking?
I don't think I've seen a single positive take on
this trailer.

Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
No, I did get a third reaction, which was, I
don't want to see that, but I have two boys.
I'm gonna have to go see that.

Speaker 2 (01:09:52):
Well, maybe it'll end up being better than what the
trailer has it looking like. But yeah, the trailer didn't
didn't win me over either, because, like I could overlook
the weirdness of live actors in a world of Minecraft.
If I felt that it was really witty, like if
it felt more like the Jumanji reboots, maybe I could.

(01:10:16):
I could maybe dig in a bit more. But I
didn't get.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
That, which is maybe what they're doing with making Steve
just Jack Black instead of a blocky character.

Speaker 2 (01:10:26):
But yeah, maybe maybe that would have just been too horrific.
Maybe maybe at some point all the characters get transformed
into blocky characters. I don't know. I don't think I'm
going to find out until I hear about it from
someone else because I can't imagine seeing this.

Speaker 1 (01:10:42):
I will probably put it on when it is streaming
for free and then ignore it while I do something else.

Speaker 2 (01:10:48):
Yeah, so I can say that I watched it. Now.
Next up, you put in our lineup a trailer for
Arkane season two. Now. I have not seen Arkane, but
after seeing the trailer for season two, I'm like, maybe
I need to make time for this because the animation
really was. I loved it. I love the art style

(01:11:09):
and the animation of this.

Speaker 1 (01:11:10):
The animation is beautiful. It is absolutely beautiful. Arcane didn't
really grab me, and I don't know if it's because
I was expecting something that was much more like Legal
Arcane is the cartoon based off of League of Legends.
We talked about it. It's getting like a DVD, Blu
ray hard media release as well as streaming purchases. Despite

(01:11:34):
the fact that it's a Netflix show. That's huge. That
shows you how popular it is.

Speaker 2 (01:11:40):
It is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:41):
It is an interesting story. You don't have to be
a League of Legends fan to watch it. I think
I was just looking forward to more like League of
Legends game vibe, and that's not at all what you get.

Speaker 2 (01:11:51):
It is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:52):
It is a drama, but it is incredibly there are
there are league of legends, Easter eggs and characters and things,
but overall it's it's just a really good drama based
around the character. Yeah, based around the characters of v
V and Jinx. So there are some other characters in there,

(01:12:12):
but they're the main two in their relationship. Yeah. I'd
say if you like the animation, it's worth giving it
a shot.

Speaker 2 (01:12:19):
Yeah. I was really impressed by it, Like, and that's
weird because it's it's a kind of animation where there's
like some computer assists stuff in there, like maybe it's
all computer I don't know, but and often I can
find that kind of off putting in cold but I
found this one like just very dramatic and very arresting.

(01:12:42):
So I was impressed. And I'm glad that you put
it in the lineup because otherwise I don't think I
would have ever seen it if you hadn't put it
in the line Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
It is a mix of two D and three D.
And what I will say is a story is a
little slow. It's a drama. It maybe has more of
a noir pace to it.

Speaker 2 (01:12:59):
Well, and you know, I'm a child of the seventies,
so I can handle that as long as I find
characters to be interesting. Like if you if you make
it a slow story and there there are no characters
for me to glom onto, that's gonna be a problem.

Speaker 1 (01:13:14):
Yeah. Yeah, I'll be interested if you watch it to
hear hear your thoughts on it. I don't know. Did
you ever play League of Legends?

Speaker 2 (01:13:21):
Uh, never to any real extent. I think I gave
it a shot, like, or maybe I watched video of it,
but I was not a League of Legends player. I'm
not any of those arena based or what do they
call them, the ones where it's like usually there's like
three pathways and it's all about trying to defeat lane based. Yeah,
I don't know there is a there is a name

(01:13:43):
for this style of game, because there's obviously beyond League
of Legends, there's quite a few others. I never really
got into those. That's that's not really kind of my
my wheelhouse for gaming. I play a lot of different
kinds of games, but not that style. It's moba, right, moba.
I should remember that, But it's been so long since

(01:14:05):
anyone said the word moba. To me, but I haven't.
I was never into MOBA's, I was never into MMOs.
I do like RPGs, and I like like survival horror
games that kind of stuff. So it just wasn't in
those types of games that I typically play, So I've
never really given it much time. How about you? Have
you played it?

Speaker 1 (01:14:27):
I was never good at it, but I played it
a whole lot for a while because that's what my
friend group was playing. So I'd go on and I'd
play Siver, and I'd do my little bottom lane and
let everybody else win the game. I tried my best.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
Yeah, That's that's kind of where I would be if
I were to play it, honestly, Like, it's just again,
it's one of those where I'm like, I can see
where people are forming strategies, but my brain just doesn't
work that way, and so I would end up being like,
if you want me on your team, it's because you
like me as a person and you realize that I
am not going to really contribute in any meaningful way

(01:15:00):
to the success or failure. Well failure probably, but not
so much the success of a team.

Speaker 1 (01:15:05):
Yeah. Yeah. The other thing I'll say about the Arcane
season two trailer is that they've said, I think this
is the last season for it, so it's a contained story.
It doesn't mean that they aren't going to do other
stories within the League of Legend verse. It's just that
this is I think the wrap up of the end
Jinx's story.

Speaker 2 (01:15:23):
Cool.

Speaker 1 (01:15:24):
It might be wrong, there might be a third season,
but I think this is it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:27):
I think this is it. I like that too, though.
I like when there's kind of a plan for a beginning, middle,
and an end to a story so that you don't
run into a risk where let's say that you've just
had a season that got really good critical reception and
decent viewer reception, and the show ends its first season

(01:15:50):
and then the show creator goes and gets accused by
multiple women of having done terrible things, and then you
don't get Dead Poise Detective season two.

Speaker 1 (01:15:58):
Oh gosh, I did correct. I did double check myself,
just to go back to the happier stuff. Season two
is the final chapter of Arcane. The co creator, Christian
Linky says, l I n k E says, there's much
more to come from the Greater.

Speaker 2 (01:16:11):
War, so cool. We also before we started recording, there
was a new trailer for Wicked that came out, and
I even debated on not putting this in the lineup
because we've already talked about the trailers for Wicked and
our confusion over the fact that this is a film
that's been split into two parts, and where do you

(01:16:33):
think the split's going to be. Is it going to
be a film that's told in actual chronological order? Is
it going to jump around? Because a lot of the
stuff that's shown in the trailer, it's referencing stuff that
in the stage musical happens at the end, and you're like,
You're like, what are they gonna do for part two?

(01:16:56):
If this is like I mean, define gravity is like
the big nub at the end of Act one. So
maybe maybe it's just them doing Act one. But that
does mean that the second movie is going to be
a real slug because all the bangers in Wicked are
in the first act, not the second act.

Speaker 1 (01:17:14):
I've never seen Wicked, but it does feel like, knowing
the story of it and knowing the story of the
Wizard of Oz, it does feel like they go to
the end of the natural conclusion of Wicked. Yeah, maybe
Wizard of.

Speaker 2 (01:17:25):
Oz in it. Are you familiar with at least some
of the songs from Wicked. Oh yeah, name a song
that you know from Wicked?

Speaker 1 (01:17:33):
I know Defying Gravity, I know Act one? Yeah, I know.

Speaker 2 (01:17:38):
Popular that's in the middle of Act one.

Speaker 1 (01:17:40):
Okay, I know the Wizard That's.

Speaker 2 (01:17:45):
That's also an Act one. Yeah, that's that's a next one.
Do you know los I.

Speaker 1 (01:17:49):
Know, I know Uncle Walters, but now green shoed, Pajama Poka.

Speaker 2 (01:17:59):
I have no I what you're talking about. But do
you know unless you're talking about Dancing through Life, in
which case that's Act one. Do you know? Do you
know the song what is this feeling aka loathing? Well, yeah,
that's also Act one. See, like these are all Act
one songs, which is making me wonder, like, what.

Speaker 1 (01:18:17):
Is Fiora's song? Is that Act on or Act two?

Speaker 2 (01:18:19):
Fiora Is song is Dancing through Life and that's Act one.
I mean he does have other songs with Alphaba, and
some of them are in act too, But yeah, like
all the ones that I think of as being the
standout songs are in Act one, which makes me think
that the second film is going to be pretty light
on the really memorable stuff. There's some like love songs
and stuff in the second act.

Speaker 1 (01:18:40):
So what about the.

Speaker 2 (01:18:44):
Okay, that's in the nineteen thirties Wizard of Oz as is,
except this trailer for Wicked incorporates that music in part
of it. And I don't know if that means that
they're actually incorporating music from the classic nineteen thirties Judy

(01:19:04):
Garland era Wizard of Oz, but it sounds like they are,
and I thought that was kind of cool. Like that
was the only reason I even mentioned it to you,
Ariel is because I was like, oh, it's kind of
neat that they incorporated this musical sting into the trailer.
But I didn't think it was enough to put it
in the show lineup. But we did it anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:19:23):
We did it anyway. I didn't know if you would
put this in the lineup. You did put this in
the lineup, right.

Speaker 2 (01:19:29):
Yeah, yeah, because you showed it to me.

Speaker 1 (01:19:31):
Yeah, so there. Luzimki is a show coming to Adult
Swim based on a love crafty and esque horror manga.
It looks real creepy.

Speaker 2 (01:19:48):
Yeah, it has to do with It has to do
with spirals, like spiral, the shape of a spiral, which
makes me think of two things It makes me think
of the sequel to The Ring, which was the novel
The which was called Spiral. But it also makes me
think of they might be giants who have a song
called the Spiraling Shape will make you go insane. Everybody

(01:20:10):
wants to see that groovy thing. It's a great song.
But yeah, it's it's. It definitely has strong Lovecraftian vibes,
an extremely atmospheric approach to horror, and I only wish
I don't. I don't prefer dubbed versions typically, I like subtitles. However,

(01:20:35):
I don't speak Japanese, and I would have loved a
dubbed version only so that I could have paid more
attention to the art, because they speak so quickly, and
the scenes changed so quickly that I was still reading
captions while things were changing on screen, And I're like,
but I want to see all the creepy stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:20:53):
Yeah, Uzumaki is I think. I think it's also done
by Yeah, it's done by Junji Edo, who has done
many many other creepy mangas as well horror mangas, including
the Enigma of Amigara Fault, which actually got kind of

(01:21:15):
like a meme following for a while it's about an
earthquake happens and these holes open up in a cliff face,
and people are called to specific holes.

Speaker 2 (01:21:23):
Right because they fit perfectly into them. I've seen I've
seen the the like the sketches from that. I didn't
know that he that I mean makes sense. It's the
same person.

Speaker 1 (01:21:34):
Yeah, yeah, And then an other earthquake happens and all
those holes get poorly disfigured, and then someone looks in
a hole and they see a person who is now
the shape of that hole, and it's really creepy. It's
very disturbing. So I'll stop there. But this is the
same this is the same author, So.

Speaker 2 (01:21:49):
Well cool, I mean, it looks really well done, Like
the art style is so evocative and extremely unsettling. So
it looks like it looks like it's a really good
spooky series to get you in the mood for spooky season.

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
I agree, I agree, and then to cheer you back.

Speaker 2 (01:22:09):
Up to nothing spookier than Kathy Baits.

Speaker 1 (01:22:13):
Sometimes you're right.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
Yeah, she could be a real misery going back to
die alone, because I think that Carrie on Moss has
maybe taken that child so she doesn't have to die.

Speaker 1 (01:22:27):
The young man so she didn't have to die alone anyhow. Yeah.
So Kathy Baits is playing Madeline Macklock Mattlock in a
reboot kind of of the Mattlock series. I say kind
of because she actually says, my name is Madeline Mattlock,
like the old Mattlock show.

Speaker 2 (01:22:46):
Yeah. Yeah, in this series, the Andy Griffith television series
Mattlock existed, like it, it existed as a television show,
not the character. So she just happens to share the
name with this character. And she plays the part of

(01:23:06):
kind of a slightly befuddled older woman in order to
be able to learn more about people and to manipulate
them and navigate through different situations because she finds that
when people have a lower expectation of her, she can
get away with a whole lot more stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:23:28):
Yeah, and it's kind of a commentary on how people
tend to kind of ignore older generations because she's playing as.

Speaker 2 (01:23:34):
Septigitarian, specifically older women.

Speaker 1 (01:23:37):
Older women. Yeah, so that's really cool. It looks fun.
Kathy Bates is smoking hot in it, Like, she looks
real good.

Speaker 2 (01:23:44):
She looks really good, and she I mean, she's probably
one of the best actors currently working, Like she's way
up there. The work she does is always stellar, and
she looks like she is nailing this character. And I

(01:24:04):
wasn't sure about this when I first heard about a
Mattlock reboot and that Kathy Bates was going to take
the lead, But so far, based on this trailer, I
feel like, I feel like this could be a really
fun and entertaining show. Not like fun as in like
we fun all the way, Like, I think it could

(01:24:24):
be really compelling television. And and I like the choice
they've made where it's clearly not happening in the same
universe as the original TV series because that's just a show.

Speaker 1 (01:24:39):
Yeah. Yeah, I like it too. I also feel like
playing now mind you this It might be because I've
watched more of one than the other, but I feel
like playing the bumbling kind of a character to put
people at ease so you can learn stuff is more
of a Colombo thing.

Speaker 2 (01:24:54):
Yeah, totally, totally.

Speaker 1 (01:24:56):
Yeah, So I mean I watched a lot more Colombo
and then Monk.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
Yeah. Yeah, of course Monk isn't doing it on purpose though, right, because.

Speaker 1 (01:25:06):
Monk, and he's also not bumbling, he's.

Speaker 2 (01:25:09):
Just incredibly awful. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think I think
it's a good trailer. It's it's arguably a little outside
the wheelhouse for LLNC, But you know, we we love
a lot of pop culture stuff, and Mattlock is one
of those things where I think even people who have
never seen an episode ever in their lives have at

(01:25:32):
least heard the title Mattlock, like it is one of
those cultural touchstone type products, like kind of like Mash, right,
like Mash. I mean, especially for my generation, Mash was
a huge deal. I don't know that many people would
know what you were referring to today, but for a
very long time, Mash was an incredibly relevant cultural touchstone.

Speaker 1 (01:25:55):
And I feel like Mattlock was at the forefront of
all of all of like the investigative type of TV
shows we've had, including Diagnosis, Murder and Murder, she wrote,
And you know, some of the newer stuff like Castle
or Bones or whatnot, So some of those definitely are
a little bit more geekier than others.

Speaker 2 (01:26:12):
Sure, yeah, yeah, So it's kind of like one of
those uh, foundational series that ended up inspiring countless others.

Speaker 1 (01:26:21):
Yeah, so looking forward to it. I don't have peacock.
Maybe I'll have.

Speaker 2 (01:26:25):
To get some peacock Oh, you don't have Peacock. You
can't watch you can't watch Night Court.

Speaker 1 (01:26:31):
Oh No, I had Peacock for a while and then
I dropped it so I could watch Star Trek on Paramount.

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
Yeah, I don't have Paramount. I do still have Peacock, though,
so partly because like, I'm an Exfinity customer and the
automatically comes with it, and that makes it easy. It does,
except I think I'm paying for it on extra anyway,
So I need to really sort that out. I need
to get like one of those apps that helps me
figure out where I'm paying too much and to stop

(01:26:58):
all that nonsense.

Speaker 1 (01:27:00):
I was going to say, we can wrap this episode up.
That was our last story, so that you can get
to that.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
Yeah, let's wrap it up. Let's wrap it up.

Speaker 1 (01:27:07):
Let's wrap it up. I'm sorry, I need more coffee anyhow. Yes,
thank you guys for listening. This has been wonderful, Jonathan.
If people want to reach out to us to talk
about any of the things we've talked about, or how
they're prepping for Spoopy season or anything like that, how
do they do that?

Speaker 2 (01:27:27):
So you're going to need to get a round table
discussion and you're going to need to invite Carrie Anne
Moss and Deborah and Waller together to have a lively
conversation about acting and role playing. You're going to need
to actually have like an impromptu D and D session,

(01:27:48):
But don't worry, Debra's got your back, and you're going
to have a discussion about the roles that women have
traditionally been offered, how that's changing, how women are making
use of the medium to tackle really tough social issues
such as the perception and treatment of women through different

(01:28:10):
stages of their lives, from the point where they're young
and impressionable, and how the system can take advantage of
that to when they are of a more mature age
and the system seems to completely forget that they exist.
It's going to be really involved and fascinating. You're going
to get to a point where you're just like floored

(01:28:33):
by the insight that's being shared, and then ultimately you're
kind of think, oh, yeah, I wanted to ask Jonathan
about that Peter Pan horror movie thing. And that's when
you'll notice that the sound engineer, Hey, it's me, and
you can just ask your question.

Speaker 1 (01:28:49):
And if you don't have the emotional bandwidth to sit
through the heaviness of all of that as amazing as
it would be. You can reach out to us on
social media on Facebook and Instagram and threads. We are
