think that one's gonna fly just.

Because of racism. Like, if we didn't live in a
racist world, we could do that, no problem. But because
we live in a racist world.

That we live in a Fantastic four universe, whatever earth
they're on, where there's no thing as racism or whatsoever, you.

The real truth is a Grod is a black man.
Oh my god, expect them.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
Melancholy, I guess is the word, but it was. It
didn't feel melancholy that day. You know, there are moments
of melon holly, but overall felt very joyous that day.
Definitely celebration of life. Yeah, definitely a celebration of life.
But it just always reminds you that, you know, these
people are not with us in the physical, but we
keep their memory and their energy alive, and in different

(04:14):
ways they still are with us. So it was definitely
a very beautiful day. I actually got to DJ for
Smith and Wesson, and that was a moment for me,
as someone who pretty much grew up on their music.
It was really like, wow, look at me, you know,
look at it. I mean, over here, Smith and Wesson, your.

It's definitely one of my favorites and a classic. And
I'll just just one hit, right, it's a sci fi classic.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
I'll say that.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
They're gonna know immediately it's nineties.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
There's so many there's so many great ones, so many
great ones. It could be Galaxy Quests, right, that's nineties,
wasn't it.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
I don't remember, But anyway, you've seen Galaxy Quests, right, Yeah,
I don't know if that was. Anyway, it's gonna be
a great if not, I mean it's close.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
It's pretty close. Some people would consider one. I wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Some people would. You know, it had a lot of
greatness in it, you know what I mean. Rest in
peace to my Man's from Harry Potter. Uh and also
from Diehard.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Of course, yes, oh who plays Snap Yep.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
He was also in Galaxy Question amazing snape. I was,
that was right on tip of my tongue. But yeah,
rest in peace, Alan Rickmond fucking God. Yeah, so you know, okay,
it's not Galaxy Quest.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
Four. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
See there, And you know this was really surprising this news.
I really was surprised by this.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Today.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
Uh, James Gunn announced that Superman Too, which isn't titled
Superman two, is just titled Man of Tomorrow, which is
one of Superman's many a ka's. He's known as the
Man of Tomorrow, the last Son of Krypton. It's the
Dark Night and uh, what's Superman's one like that, because

(10:03):
it's like Dark Knight and something sun I can't remember.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Right they I don't know, it's something like that.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
Yeah, but he's not a few other ones, but Man
of Tomorrow has always been one of my favorite ones
for Superman. And so that's the title of Superman two.
And even more surprising part about it, it's just coming seven.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
I mean they're filming that shit right now.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Like I mean not yeah, but they need to they
need to get on their job, and they haven't, so
we'll see. But yeah, coming, I know the strip's already
written because he was already working on that and so coming.
Gunn did not announce that he's directing it, but I
would assume he is, but I don't know. He also
said that Superman is not his, like really his bag,

(10:45):
and he would like somebody else to take over.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
So good, I mean, just a little less Guardians of
the Galaxy. No, yeah, nose but all truth, just take
a little bit of the Guardians out of it, So
I would. I wouldn't mind seeing someone else. He still
did a great job. Yes again, since enough time has
passed for me to sit there, because before the last
time you spoke about it, I was on. Since I

(11:09):
like Superman twenty twenty five, right, I love it. I
liked it. I still think it was too much Guardians.
It was too much wackedness, a little bit old on
a wackedness for me, but I understood. So at the
end of the day, he's an amazing director of James
gun And if he does end up doing again, I'm
sure he'll he'll temperate. My hope is he does. If
he doesn't, if it's not him and somebody else. I'm open,

(11:32):
like I just want to I'm okay, because there is
a plan now DC the dc universe, the DCU has
a plan. Now it has a captain. James Gunn is
the captain now, and now that they have direction and instruction,
I expect much better results than what we've been seeing.

(11:52):
And we've already seen really good results.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
I actually dropped a video today on Instagram TikTok all
the rest of foreign nerds social media talking about that
because actually one of our rock questions from a few
months back when it dropped asked us what we thought
of Creature Commandos and I had not had a second
to watch it yet, And this weekend I was like,
let me finally catch the show. I've really been feeling

(12:15):
the you know, the new DCU, and I'm like, this
is a part of it, so let me at least
give it a watch. And I'm like, yo, I mean,
James Joon, we know he knows how to tell a story,
he knows how to pull on emotional heart streams when
he wants to. But I will really commend him for
the format of these twenty two minute stories and how
each one focuses on a different member of the Creature Commandos.

(12:39):
And again when I something I talked about in the video,
the tonal differences in the projects that DCU has presented
so far and what they're talking about coming down the pike,
Because so far we've had Superman, which is a straight
up pretty much family friendly, you know, adventure other than
you know, like harem and occasional murder, but beyond that,

(13:01):
you know, it's very family friendly, very kid not kid,
but you know, just family oriented.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Then you have Creature Commandos, which is an animated series
which you would think, you know, okay, animated, and no,
it is full on. There's a lot of sex. There
is Hella violence, it's hella emotional, and it's also about
a group of monsters, and it never shies away from
the fact that these are all monsters.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
And it's not even that Guardians of the Galaxy monsters
where they'll be redeemed in the heroes. They might be
redeemed in the heroes, but there'll still be monsters at
the end of this as far as I can tell,
because they're pretty monstrous. And now I've only got two
episodes left, and then we have Peacemaker, which is, you know,
just all over the place.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
I'm loving season two.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
But Orgies straight up and down Orgies like that, you know,
like I said, from Golly to Orgies, it is a
wide difference in Superman and Peacemaker, and I just feel
like we still have not seen that difference from Marvel.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
They'll attempt to.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Like do little jumps at it, like wear Wolf by
Night or the upcoming Marvel Zombies, which has a lot
of violence and a lot of cursing, But I don't
feel like they're going to get near as far as
like something like Creature Commandos does, where it's the violence
of sex. It's it is not done in a way where,
you know, it's just like where Marvel Zombies so far

(14:24):
as just the gore fit, you know, it's just like, oh,
let's see what these heroes look like when they kill
each other.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yeah, that's not Creature Commandos.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
I thought about that just to jump on, like, I
don't know if mc you can do that. At the
end of the day, the MCU is Disney. Now, well, okay,
Marvel is under Disney's wing. It's under Disney's direction at
the end of the day, and it's very much focused
to gathering as the middle of the road as many

(14:53):
people as possible, not to say that there cannot be
edgy things like as we have seen in things like
The Watcher, you know, the Watch excuse me, the animated
series on Disney Plus featuring like The Watcher, Like we've
seen some of the edgy things you mentioned the zombies,
but like tonally, to your point, is kind of all
the same, Like there isn't anything that's except for maybe

(15:14):
animation right where it's kind of outside the overall bubble
of the MCU of the films. But other than that,
like I don't at least as things as currently blueprinted,
I don't see them going completely let feel like they
can do with DC. Like one of the benefits of
DC just just being I didn't want to say having

(15:36):
you know, just just just being a dumpster fire. But
if DC being a dumpster fire is they kind of
come out of the fire like a phoenix and get
to be a new right. And Also the thing about DC,
at least for me, I've always seen DC is more dark,
Like even from the comics perspective, I always just saw
it as well. First one, a lot of the characters
they of many of them godlike they're not necessarily humans,

(15:59):
but also God's are fallible, right, so you got to
see a lot of that weird as you mentioned the
orgies or or or you know, people cussing it and
going and carrying on and violence. Right, not to say
that it didn't happen and for the MCU, but it's
it's just much more sanitized. Like again, I just feel
like it's only been the animation. Like back in the day,

(16:19):
the Iron Man animation, the man was a drunk and
they didn't shy away from that, right, and he was
he was a you know, he was a terrible person,
and like they really like even as a child, like,
they didn't shy away from that. Whereas that's completely kind
of that's kind of glossed over when they kind of
translate it to live action. So as far as can

(16:40):
they make tone ships, I don't know they're even allowed
to at this point, just because of they may be
in a box now and and DC doesn't have that box,
like DC could run wild as it's happening now. And
just to go back again to how good Gun is
in this short period of time, he completely reccon everything
that was in the DCEU with one scene m the

(17:02):
end of the Peacemaker when the return scene where at
the end when he's coming and you see the silhouettes
of what was the Justice League that's been completely changed
to the niggas. You know, the I forgot what they
call themselves, the Justice Gang complete and now I was
like and with that, like literally with the snap, it's like, Okay,
this is new. This is how the direction we're going to.

(17:23):
And to your point, there's no questions and there's no
there's no pushback from anybody because the tones match the character.
Peacemaker is supposed to be fucked up. He's a fucked
up dude, he does fucked up things. So there's gonna
be some very adult situations versus what they're trying to
do with Superman, where it's if you're going back to
his roots, if you're going back to the deepness of

(17:45):
his particular character about humanity, is going to be more
family friendly and a little bit more goofy, yes, got it.
There's gonna be in between. Whereas with MCU, I'm just like, well,
what characters do they have that they're going to actually
put on screen that they're going to be different with
besides maybe besides maybe the street level people like Dareduvil,

(18:05):
Dared Devils is probably the most, the most violent, the
most in terms of Daredevil.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
Uh, you're I'm sure.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
I was trying to remember has the MCA just has
spread up sucking and Dared Devil was fucking He did
a little.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
I mean he he he was with Homegirl.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah, she hope was fucking. She hoped was fucking right.
You know, the Devil was fucking on his own series, remember,
because he was with Night Nurse. He had a few,
he had my girl, you know, a few, but not
just that, like.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
The dope situations you talk about, Like the closest we've
gotten was all the street level heroes. Yea, and Dared
Devil's kind of the one, the one, you know, he's
up there right now. He's the only one right now,
and it's like, what else did they got.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
The season the kids? I'm sure he is no, I know,
I know in the first season. I'm saying, in the
new first season, I don't remember him smashing Yeah, oh
that fight he was know, You're right, yep, he was
still a getting okay, so they still all right, So
they still that's what I'm saying they still got the opportunity,
and that's.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
The opportunity, but in what way?

Speaker 3 (19:11):
But and I don't think whenever people say it's Disney,
I don't think that really holds weight because if you
look on Disney plus there is all you know, everything,
you know, it's not like Disney. You know, they have
different tears or whatever. You know, different studios that make different.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Films that will you know, be this now, Like I
can't tell you because they have a lot of like Search,
I'm not sure what of those studios are Disney. There's
a lot of little smaller studios that you hear about,
like you know where it's like what's his name? B
plus Brad Pitt, shit is under someone else? You know.
Disney has multiple I can't remember if it's Search, Like

(19:51):
it's one of them joints like that where you're like,
oh shit, that's Disney and it's al rated down the line,
you know what I mean. That's where they that's how
they do it so that people don't know it's Disney.
So to say that Disney won't do it, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
So.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
Remember, Marvel was sanitizing Tony before Disney became part of it.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Well, I guess that's what my point is, Like, yeah, sure,
you're right, but now that's already in the history, and
that here comes Disney's like you gotta make money with this,
you gotta gotta grandmother kids again. Yeah, they've done it
in some respect, but I just feel like the door
is more open when it comes to DC.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
No. I definitely, I definitely do that too, And especially
because someone like James Dunn who comes from a very
he comes from trauma films, which is a very shock
value type thing. So he's you know, he's grown with
that though.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
And that's something where I really like about him as
a filmmaker, where he's grown and knows how to put
that shot. He but still knows how to get the
families in the seats. And then, like you said, you know,
to spand on that they're already doing it. They have Superman.
The next year they have Supergirl, which, while it's going
to be Superman asque Supergirls to be very different than
Superman and people are going to be very unexpectedly shock

(21:00):
probably when they go.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
And see it.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
And then on that Molly all that, and then they
have like Peacemaker, I mean Peacemaker they have a playface
coming out in that year, which is supposed to be
some body horror type shit. So they're already, you know,
trying to do a lot of different things. And yeah,
I said in my video, but I'm more excited for

(21:21):
them right now than I am from Marvel.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
I mean, hey, twenty years, look at the look at
the change in twenty years. Look, you know gets here.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
It was a good run Marvel. But I mean maybe,
but I'm not excited about the direct thirty X men.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
So it's just like, are you still not excited? I mean,
are you so excited about doom ooh? Not that pause?

Speaker 3 (21:44):
No, I don't think they've given it enough time. And
I'm not one hundred percent as belief in the Russos.
And only one of the writers from you know, the
writing team that made everything right is coming back for
this now.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Is he the good one? Let's hope. So, But I
also think, you know, it's a great team, and you know,
don't that's the team? You know?

Speaker 1 (22:05):
So is he the god son?

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (22:09):
You know, like you know, hopefully he ain't the one
that got dropped off the cliff, you know, the bridge.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
The funny thing is I did not see that movie.
I was an adult, so I ride when that nigga
dropped because I was like, yo, this is so hilarious.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
They dropped McCauley like he des he did he I mean,
he was a monster, but it was still the fact
that they dropped his ass, Like, I'm like, yo, if
I've seen this as a kid, I would have lost
it coming out of Home Alone and then watching that,
I would have lost it.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
I would have not been able to handle it.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Also, as a kid, you don't realize it's the same person.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
No, I knew. I knew because remember I'm like I
was different.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
I was just enough of a kid where like I
was probably like mccaulay's age or a little younger.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
But I knew him. He was an Uncle Buck, so
I was already.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Remember I'm a kid who loves movies, So you know,
I'm like, I know, you know, I'm like all that
little fuck from Uncle Buck because he was funny as
hell and Uncle Buck and then he got Home Alone
and blew.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
I never I don't know what uncle Buck is.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Oh man, he's funny as hell and uncle Buck he's
uh yeah, he's my macauley.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
History starts with Home Alone, Holdloe.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
Yeah, yeah, he was an uncle Buck and I'm not
sure what else before that, but I knew him an
uncle buck because he curses, and you know, I was
a little kid, and so this little kid cursing, it
was like, you know, it's great. You know, mccauday's so
cute and him cursing was hilarious.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Yeah. But just the one other thing about that announcement
from James Gunn he it was accompanied by a teaser image. Yes,
the cartoon or cartoon or.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
Anim Jimy cartoon. It's Trauma Book.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
The comic book image, I should say, of Lex and
his warsuit with with soups right next to him. And
obviously that means that it's gonna be more of Lex.
And you know how I feel about Lex. I didn't
hate I didn't hate Man in the Superman twenty twenty
five film as I love them. I thought he was

(24:06):
cool again. I thought they they just did a little
bit too much like angry, you know, evil Jeff Bezos,
evil blurred Jeff Bezos versus just you know Lex. And
I would just like to see more of like the
intrinsic nature to why Lex does not fuck with soups
like because it still was giving. Just I'm just jealous
and not to say that's not the that's that can't

(24:27):
do that is part of it. That's part of it.
And that's my point. It's only part. It's not the
full extent of this man's hate. So yeah, I just
want to see more.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
It's not the full extent, but it is like the
biggest part of it, because that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
It's like he.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
He desguises his jealousy with a lot of bullshit about
why he hates him, because one of his big things
that he says is Superman is keeping back the human
race by being there, and that's bullshit.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
And then the other one he tries to say is
why is that bullshit?

Speaker 1 (24:56):
He feels like because people are becoming reliant on him,
Why is that bullshit?

Speaker 2 (25:01):
Nigga? Because this nigga is only one nigga. He can't
be everywhere.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
One nigga that's been stopping wars and stepping in and
making decisions on his own.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Okay, all right, but for the good of earth, right.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
That's what we believe.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
But believe that, yeah, and that's the problem, and that's
the other and that's the other thing that lets spits
to some nonsense.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
Is flex feels we let us where the humans let
us handle our own ship.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
And the other thing he says is if it was
up to me, I could say the world if you
weren't here, But.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
She did and uh was it red Son, Which here's
a story where Lex basically makes a utopia only only through.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
The help of Superman. That's Red Sun.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
It's still only through that, but.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
It was Lax.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
That's the problem is his ass is jealous of this
nigga and it said it to being like, yo, we
can work together and do great things. This niggas a
hater and that is Lex's biggest problem is being a hater.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
Like I always love the old.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
School Superman where it's I'm not sure if it's disposure
to kryptonite, but it's something that makes Lestro bald as
a teenager. And that's why a small villain that beause
that goes back to the old school comics when they
were when they grew up together and in high school,
something happens and it makes leed'stro bald, and that's why

(26:31):
he hates him because he has like bright red hair
and I just always found out out.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
But I just cannot let everything boil down to this
nigga's a jealous nigga. He never came off like that
to me because about Superman anime series.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
But it's slickness. But it's that's what I'm saying. It's
it's a nigga who he's good.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
At being charismatic and telling you a story, you know,
and he's telling you the story. Oh look at this
alien if not for him, but it's like, nigga, you
still here. And that's what Man says to him over
and over again. I'm here and you're here. What are
you doing but hating on me? How I'm over here
helping and you're just hating.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Tell it cannot just be that because then no, and
this is the reason why, because it's gonna get boring.
It's gonna be boring fast that it's just every movie,
every Superman movie, there's just this nigga that's hating.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
We see. That's the thing about that image, Like, No,
that's that's the thing.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
New film that we're gonna in twenty twenty seven is
gonna be Oh, I'm a hater twenty nine, Oh I'm
a hater likes gun knows that won't work and that's
the thing about that, and that's all I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
But look at that about.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
Hate, no I'm saying, and look at the image that
it's not just Lex and his warsuit. It's Superman leaning
against lets looking at him like whatever, nigga, which.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Which happens also in the animated again the anime series
where it was like the rivalry basically it was on
some Gary o'catch ship where it's like I don't really
like you like that, nigga, but no our tolerance when
I need to.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
And it also happens in your favorite red Son when
Brainiat dumb dumbs comes through. Yes, and that's what people are.

Speaker 3 (28:08):
You know, there's a lot of speculation that Brainiac is
the villain of Man of Tomorrow because when you speak
about the tomorrow, you're speaking about the future, and that's
brainiac territory.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
So shout out to front of the show seven, Shout
out seven, who said, that's a young kid who gave
his take. You know, he has some really good takes
on Superman and everything else. But he mentioned that he
felt that Brainiac should be the villain.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
It definitely, I mean BRAINI that's the villain of Red Son.
Brainiac is part of the villain of All Star Superman.
So yeah, Braini, that's one of my favorite Superman villains
and one of the illis and one of.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
The like, yeah, mister terrifying too.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
That's what I really like about BRAINI at Brainiac is
terrifying when they do him as the you know, completely
computer intelligence where he just has no feeling and no
thought process that's anything like our Yeah, and then with
all the AI talk going on today, I think Brainy
that's like a perfect feeling right now, it makes sense.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
I mean besides, like Brainiac had Superman villains have been
my favorite have been him in Dark Side. Oh yeah,
those are those are my two waves?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Who else? I love? Mister Mitchell Blick I cannot lie
miol I love him. He's just so ill.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
I mean, you know that's supposed to be him in
the background of Superman twenty twenty five, where when he's
talking to Lowest and the Justice Dangers in the background
battling this energy thing. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what
it might be, mitchplit because he says it's an interdimensional
imp and that's what mister Bay is.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Yeah, he isn't.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
And you're not, and he doesn't look like the little
old man. That's not what it really looks like. But
it really looks like something like that.

Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah, yeah, okay, I'll take it if that's true.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
So yeah, I was gonna make a joke on Threads
the other day that JD. Vance said his name backwards.
He probably vanishes.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
I wish she would, she would do something.

Speaker 3 (30:04):
So that's all I promise you. If they just did
him to say his name backward to vanish to the
fifth dimension. Oh my god, you just look in an dimensional.
We got some reviews you want to start off with.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
Well, let me get this out the way before I
started crying. So I saw The Long Walk a few
weeks ago. Actually I saw it rather early, and I
wish i'd never seen it. And and let me be clear, yeah,
not because it's a bad movie. It's actually incredible. Yep,

(30:43):
it's extremely well done. It is an adaptation of the
Stephen King novel of the same name. I never read
the book, but after the film I did like read
through like excerpts of the book and try to like
try to match up with a lot of the scenes
that I saw.

Speaker 3 (30:57):
Yeah, it's actually written. Stephen King did write it, but
he wrote it under his pen name Richard Bachman at
a point when he was trying to see if he
could sell books without being Stephen King King, and it
still sold pretty well. From what I understand, I read it.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Because it's incredible.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
Yeah, I read it when I was a kid, like
not a kid kid, but very young. And it's so
when we got the offer to see the film, I told,
ain't no way, because I already know like the Long
Walk and the Running Man book and they're doing the
Running Man film later on this year are two of
those Stephen King stories that ruined me, and so I
had no desire to see this movie.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
But yeah, and as mentioned, I really wish I didn't
see it, only because, like I wish I had known
ahead of time and prep myself by knowing what the
book was about. The problem was, like I was intrigued
by the premise of the film of the Travelers.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
That's not happening to me as a kid.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
I was like this, shiit wow, And I'm thinking it's
just like level six wild, right, No, this is level
two hundred and thirty five of the level of wild
that it could ever be. And the book is already
brutal and messed up, and the film just to it's different.

(32:20):
As everyone knows, when you're reading a book, especially books
that dictate things that are graphed happening, you are making
pictures in your mind. You are, especially if you're very illustrative,
when it comes to your imagination. As you read, you're
gonna see what you're gonna see. But it's probably still
not gonna be as fucked up. But what someone else
thinks the imagery of that scene should be right, especially

(32:42):
someone that's already twisted, Which is why I think the
director Francis I think he's a little twisted because the
way he interpreted certain scenes in that book was just
beyond beyond the pale when it comes to the level
of violence that I expected, Like I'm I thought I knew,
but I didn't know. And the trailers think the trailers

(33:03):
for those who were you know, are like, oh, it's
not that big of a deal. The trailers do not
give how big of a deal it really is. And
it's probably more so why why my reaction has been
so outsized. It is because these are they're not children,
but they're young men. These aren't like grown old ass
men that had their whole life, and you know, at

(33:24):
the at the end of their.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
Time, these are young men, be eighteen, right, that's one
of the rules that are long walk.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
I don't remember, I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
That's still the was still the case. But the fact
is they're young because.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
One of them lies to get in, because one of
them lies to get in.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Yeah, but again they changed some stuff in the film,
so it might be a little different in the film
than in the book. But the point is these as
young men with their lives fully ahead of them. And
as mentioned, there are some who are maybe younger than
they appear. And you see some things. You see some things.
You see some horrifying, terrifying things, and it's not scary

(34:01):
in the in the sense of you know, jump scares
or anything like that, even though there are a couple
which is just just just again ruined me. As you say,
it's more psychological horror, psychological trauma. And as I mentioned
in my social review, my quick social review, you have
to be very careful with this film.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
If you.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
If you are have some stuff going on in your
life right now that you want to keep your peace,
I would not say to go watch this again, it's
an incredible good film. It's well directed, the ensemble cast,
and hopefully we'll get to actually interview some of them.
But the ensemble cast, they do an incredible job with

(34:43):
each other because it's a lot of dialogue as well.
It's dialogue heavy, and it has to be because it's
literally a movie about people walking for hundreds of miles
and you're just with them walking. There's besides the stuff
that happens, and then there's no other main point of action.
So it requires good synergy between the actors. It requires
them to befriend each other, requires you to believe that befriending,

(35:08):
and it works. I will say that there are some
characters where you don't really get and I don't I
don't know if that's just you didn't have the time
to or what, or just maybe the way that they
were interpreted. You don't get to see. They're more like
sketches of fully characters versus you know, you get the
real history behind them, like why, what their motives are

(35:32):
if that makes any sense, Like you know, you'll have
the person who is the evil one quote quote, you
have the person who is the kid quote like they
some of them are more like archetypes as opposed to
fully fleshed characters. And again, I don't know if that's
just didn't have the time for that or is.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
Just a differend.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
It's a lot of characters, it's a lot, but the
only really focus on like maybe five or six people.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
That's the thing. I mean, five or six is a
lot for a film to carry.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
So well, you know what, we've seen it done foreign
TV shows with with less time.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
So no c TV shows are more time. Remember that
TV shows are going to be episodic. You're gonna have no.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
No, no, I'm talking about in one episode. What I'm
saying is it's Britson about how some of the characterizations
are okay.

Speaker 3 (36:18):
Also, you know, again, a TV show is a different
audience of film. You know, it's a big screen. You're
gonna have to get to the point, you know, and
then like you know, get to the shootings him.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
Bullets do hurt.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
It's horrific some of the the ways that these kids
go out.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Yeah, for those that don't, the quick premise of the
thing is that there's it's an alter the Future type.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
Thing where it's a game show. People can enter, there's
a prize and the game or contest is you must walk.
And if you did blow four miles that's.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
The book four miles pour.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
It's three miles powers prior in the film, you get
a warning and then your third warning you were shot
by people who are driving alongside as the boys walk.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah, and that's it.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Yeah, and and and all this is this is direct
from the trailers, so we're not telling you anything.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
That's noticed before you go in and see.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
This film and you see that it's like it's militarized, right,
Like the people who are driving alongside them are military people.
So and these are just regular kids. And again just
imagine just you're just walking. Yeah, you're just walking for
hundreds and hundreds of miles until it's the last man standing.

Speaker 2 (37:35):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
So again I thought, you know, from the premise alone,
I was like, oh, that's tough, but oh like, how
bad could it be?

Speaker 2 (37:44):
And I told you, I was like, well, it's one
of those all farm books I've ever read.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
It's man again, well done film, I will never see
it again.

Speaker 2 (37:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
I've told people about this, like, I'm a huge Stephen
Keanon fan. But when you talk about books that ruined
me as a child, several of his are on there,
and The Long Walk, the Running Man, and the Mists
are all up in there. Like I'll never forget sitting
in classes elementary school when I'm reading The Mists and
at one point they're driving and I lift my head

(38:17):
up from the book and I felt the car like
going away from me, you know what I mean, Like
I felt like I was driving with them. That's how
in this fucking book I was. That's you know, like
I felt the motion of the car. I'm sitting in
my desk at school, but I felt the motion of
the cars. I mean, you talk about like so that's
fine when you know it's like, yeah, this director might

(38:39):
have it, but I knew childhood that The Long Walk
was something.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
I never needed to read or see again.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
So yeah, and again this is very it's extremely graphic. Yeah,
the things that you watch these kids endure is like
you would never think that they would force should watch it.
Like a lot of times, especially in films, they'll cut
away like or they'll get they'll tease something, or they

(39:06):
do silhouettes or shadows or whatever. No, they show you, Yep,
you see the stuff happening. You just see it all.
And I just that will it's burning my brain forever.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
Yeah, no, I'm so good. I gotta say.

Speaker 3 (39:23):
They're doing an adaptation of The Running Man later this year,
and even from the trailer, it seems that they're going
closer to the book than the original Running Man film,
with a start on the Schwarzenegger, which was completely different
from the book. And so just the idea of them
getting close to the book started like, you know, those

(39:45):
hairs on the back of my nets started standing up
because it's just like, oh God, that book is one
of those books that I just regret reading. Most Stephen
King books that I read as a child, I regret reading,
like seriously, just like you regret seeing be.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
Really Stephen King as a child.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
This is probably true. This is probably true.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
Another thing, this film obviously is not for children, and
it's barely for adults because certain adults will not be
able to have the mental capacity to really processes as mentioned.
Just be very careful. If you know yourself, or I
should say know yourself, get to learn yourself, and if
you cannot process that type of brutality and graphic nature

(40:27):
of what kind of mirrors was going on today, then
you might want to be cared. You might want to
take a pass or at least some be be prepared
to take breaks if you can, because I assume this
is not going to be in theaters for that long,
considering they keep pulling stuff so fast nowadays. So if
you end up watching this at home, like on streaming

(40:50):
when it eventually comes to streaming, take some breaks if
you need to.

Speaker 3 (40:53):
Yeah, I would definitely recommend it because, like I said,
I've read it, and I just knew and you know,
and I knew that they were sticking way too close
to the book, and then Todd down has told me
the whole thing, and so I'm like, oh.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
Yeah, when I read it against the book and then
I look at the I just remember when I saw it,
I was like, they actually did.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
That, and they do the whole go ahead? Do they
do the whole diarrhea incident?

Speaker 1 (41:16):
And for fans of the book, I'm not going to
answer that as for fans because I don't want to
give nothing away, But for.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
Fans that means the fans of the book.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
If you're worried about them wording it down, no, they
turned it up. They turned it up like a lot
of That was one of the other things that I
saw floating around people were just because I looked around
the see what the internet was talking about when they
thought about law. And they was like, oh, I hope
that they didn't, you know, sanitize this or no it's
dirty as fuck.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, I believe.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Sitized about it.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
It's hard not to be.

Speaker 3 (41:50):
It's just such a good like you say, it sounds
like that saying I'm like ten eleven, maybe twelve. You know,
somebody's like, oh, you know, check out this, and I'm like, oh,
the Long Walk and they read it and they're like.

Speaker 2 (42:00):
Yo, this is this happens. I'm like, oh, word, and
I'm like, that's an ill premise.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
Now, that's an innocence killer. They should not have told.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
You, yeah, And it was they should not that, yeah,
because and I just thought and I was like, oh,
this is interesting.

Speaker 3 (42:12):
And then you you know, and that's how SIMI can
get you. And it's like, you know, he's such a
great writer and such a great storyteller.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
It.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
Oh man, he has this one about time, not time travel,
about teleportation, and it's a very short story.

Speaker 2 (42:26):
It might be twenty some pages.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
And was that one when the person's got like ripped apart,
no body parts or something like that.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
No, it interests somebody tearing their eyes out though, so
it's pretty bad.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
But that's the body part.

Speaker 3 (42:40):
It was basically the story about how man kind of
vince teleportation, and when they teleport, there's like one point
something seconds that they can't account for because you have
to go through a portal, you know, that's how they
do it, and anyone who sees what's in that portal
goes insane. And so to counter at that, they made

(43:01):
people take sleeping gas. You know, it's like a plane
like you know, everybody gets on the plane, everybody gets
taken them sleeping gas, and then they push the plane through.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
The portal and you tell the port you know, no problem.

Speaker 3 (43:12):
And the whole story is about this man telling his
son about you know, the whole history of it. You know,
how they figured out the portals, how they kept sending
people through, and they were going insane. It's an animals,
nothing worth. And then they figured out if you were
to sleep, you know, you were fine. Boom boom boom,
and now we have worldwide teleportation. And so then they
go through the portal, and the fucking kid, because he

(43:36):
heard this story, wants to see what was out there,
and he helds his breath during the sleeping gas, and
so he goes insane and comes out and they're like,
the kid looks like a.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
Ninety year old man.

Speaker 3 (43:48):
His hair is all white, all kind of shit. And
then he's like, I saw that. I saw that.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
And he tears his.

Speaker 3 (43:54):
Eyes out and they drag his dad away, screaming, and
that's the end of the short story.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Stephen King, Ladies and gentlemen, fucking Stephen King, Ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 3 (44:04):
And I'm sitting reading like, well, this is interesting because
it's like, you know, they're breaking down how the scientists
figure out the teleportation.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
I'm like, oh, that's so cool. Yeah, well that's interesting.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
And that's what and that's how it gets you. Oh,
this is and that's what happened.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
This is an interesting premise. That's how he does you.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
That's how Stephen King do you people crazy. Oh, this
is a good idea, right, this sounds what you're Let's
let's keep going.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
Horror, horrorr tay her and horror.

Speaker 3 (44:31):
All right, Well, I have a her view myself of
something that is not so terror and horror oriented.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Robo force.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
What's that?

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Robo force is a reboot, reimagining. I'm not sure what
you wanna actually call it, since they never I don't
as far as I know, Robo Force never had a
cartoon back to day anyway. Back in the day, you know,
in the early eighties, there was Transformers, and then there
was a lot of biers. There's a lot of people.

(45:05):
There's a lot of people Transformers. There's a lot of
people trying to live off the fame of Transformers.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
It's all say yes, okay, wow.

Speaker 3 (45:15):
And there was you know, go Bots, who are known
as the pure on Transformers biers. Like you know when
when mom said you had Transformers at home.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
She meant you had go Bots, Like it was not
a good look, that's a.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
Dollar store bots.

Speaker 2 (45:30):
It was.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
Transformers.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
You want to remember that. I remember when I got
a go Bot. I was so hurt. It was so
bad and their cartoon was weak.

Speaker 3 (45:41):
It was everything about it was terrible, Like Transformers isn't
the best of high entertainment.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
But go Bots was asked, and then.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
There was still on brand versus off brand.

Speaker 3 (45:51):
Yeah, and then there was robo Force, which they don't
even really transform so they weren't even that. But you know,
robots of everybody was trying to get a piece of
the buy and whatever a company had. Robero Force had
these toys. They were like little clunky robots with rubbery
arms or whatever. They couldn't do much. I had a
couple of them as a kid, but they were asked.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
I can't lie.

Speaker 3 (46:11):
There was nothing about robo Force that made you want
to buy more than one of them most so that
never really went anywhere. But in twenty twenty five, Robo
Force has a new series. It's out on two B.
We got sent preview copies of it, so I peeped it.
It's all out now, dropped in April. Actually, I can't
say I was blown away by rober Force or anything

(46:32):
or that I was like, wow, this is, you know,
more than I expected.

Speaker 2 (46:37):
It was about what I expected.

Speaker 3 (46:39):
You know, for robo Force, Like it was a very
kid oriented cartoon. I'll say that the one the couple
things that I really did enjoy about it is that
it has a lead character, sorayah Avaram, who was a.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
You know, young East Indian woman.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
You know, child like you know ten to eleven, I guess,
and she basically leads the robo Force. She puts them
back together that's in the future where the robots are
plenty and the Robo Force are of course the line
that you know has been abandoned and nobody messes with anymore,
basically a callback to you know, the old Robo Force
of the nineteen eighties, Like those are the old eighties

(47:23):
toys that nobody plays with anymore. She puts them back
together and they go on wacky adventures, you know, as
you would say. It's a series, so you know it's
troub be whacky adventures. The one thing that I did enjoy,
beyond you know, having a personal color or young woman
personal color doing stem stuff, which is very dope, is
that the series does take some twists and turns. It's

(47:44):
like some friends who become foes and foes who become
friends and all that type of thing, and they're trying
to tie it into a larger universe. There's a couple
of other They have a bootled teenage Muni Ninja Turtles
that they tieing in into from the eighties.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
Something about these mice. I can't remember what it is.

Speaker 3 (48:02):
I never paid attention to that, but it's another you know,
boot leg So they got to come up bootleg properties
that they're building their own boutleg universe.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
And I see that this is exactly produced by the
Rock Dwayne Johnson, Danny Garcia and then Brian Volkee Weiss.
Brian Brian is the producer. He's produced a lot of
ship actually uh cleaning some shit with Kevin Hart and
all that. You know, even though I was clowning to
be not for nothing, to Be is actually doing a thing.

Speaker 2 (48:33):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
Anymore, Well, yes I can, but you can always hate
on to Be. But what I'm saying is that they
do have some good stuff in the mix. Like I
want to start watching Damascus.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
Yes, that's my people show.

Speaker 1 (48:47):
The black sci fi show. I call it black sci
fi show. But it's about uh, you know, a black
man like he experiments with emerging therapy that sends him
into alternate timelines of his own life. Has an incredible
cast too, So I'm just like, oh shit, I kind
of I kind of want to say it like it
stars Janet Hubert, black On, viv Shakiraj and I pe

(49:09):
Martin Lawrence and then the main character, I don't want
to mispronounce his name, but ok RITI Ope, that's how
I fed sai Ocrette. Yeah, this this is a great
cast actually, and I just heard that, like, like I said,
it's on to me, so people, I mean, I give
the chance, like I don't. I've never really been on

(49:30):
to be like that besides seeing the clips. But people
say that this is really good.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
No, and shout out to my brother.

Speaker 3 (49:36):
Kirk writes that's one of my black men writer from Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
He executive produced that show.

Speaker 3 (49:42):
And why why it's so good is because it was
actually on another network.

Speaker 2 (49:47):
I want to say it was an AMC show.

Speaker 3 (49:49):
And they produced it, did everything with it because I
remember when he was first getting it together and he
was telling me about some people they were trying to
get cast on it, thank God or not. And I
don't know why AMC abandoned it, but they had I
think they produced and created the whole show, and it
was like, now when I can put this on?

Speaker 2 (50:10):
So it got picked up by.

Speaker 3 (50:11):
To be so and as he said, he had some
really good people behind him who kept fighting for it
to make sure they have found a new home.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
So yeah, y'all go check out the Master. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
So if Toby ends up being a place where it
saves like especially like independently, you know, written or produced
things like I'm all for it because that tends to
be the good stuff you really you know, won't be
able to see on other places. So again I won't
but put too much on to be if they keep
going in this direction.

Speaker 3 (50:38):
No, And like I say, if for kids and for
people you know of my generation and a little bit
younger who have kids, now this is something you know
that might be worth checking out, I would definitely check
out well Beth for it. Yeah, because, like I said,
it features a POC woman as the lead, which a
you know girl as the lead, which is really dope,

(50:59):
you know what I mean, I really I had to
see that, and the fact that she's involved in STEM,
she's the smartest character on the show. All that type
of thing is dope, and you know, to give you
that nostalgia vibes, it's very simple animation, et cetera. It
feels like in eighties early nineties, you know, animated cartoon
show that has been rebooted for now, you know. So

(51:19):
if you've got nothing else and you're looking for a
kids show something to occupy at the time, definitely check.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
Out Roll before Us.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Okay, one other thing that I would recommend. I love documentaries.
I'm a big documentary buff. I love and I love
all types of documentaries, like from the one on one
interview type styles into the ones that are like the large,
you know, sweeping ones like I've watched. I don't know
if you watched, and it was hard to watch us
remembering that because I was in school when it was happening.
But the Katrina documentary, yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
Know, I haven't because you know that's I knew people
who died it. Yeah, yeah, it was very Yeah, it was.

Speaker 3 (51:54):
I was like my girl at the time, her grandmother
was not her grandmother, but her her best friends grandmother was.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
Her house was underwater, and then I forward, yeah, they
were in there.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
Yeah. And and like my class was like that first
class that we did alternative spring break where we actually
went to New Orleans to help with the clean up efforts.
It was like six months or so after. So so
I did watch the Hulu and this is interesting. This
keeps happening with Hulu and Netflix. And yes it's the
twenty the twentieth anniversary, but like Netflix has the Katrina

(52:29):
what's it called Hurricane Katrina racis excuse me? Hulu has
Hurricane Katrina Race Against Time. That's the one I watched,
which just really again just shows the level of competency
and racism and everything else that had really signified all
of the what went wrong with her Hurricane Katrina, amongst

(52:52):
other things. And then there what I haven't watched yet
is the Netflix version of theirs is called Katrina Come
Hell and High Water, And a lot of people who
are in the Hula one actually show up in the
Netflix one as the people that get interviewed and things
like that, including like the key players, like the like
the police chief at the time, and some other people. Again,

(53:14):
this is one of those things where this is trigger warning, right,
like if you're able to like, like for me, I
have big triggers when it comes to nine to eleven stuff,
being from New York, being around when that happened. It's
a lot, right, I can't really watch that stuff. If
this is a trigger for you when it comes to Katrina,
you know, that's warning for you. But otherwise, like you know, justice,
it needs to be taught, especially to the new gen

(53:34):
that hasn't you know, they just know it by name
or they know it by the memes. The whole you know,
George Bets don't care about black people, but it was
obviously way more than that, and I would definitely recommend
it the Netflix series, excuse me, the Hulu series, and
I' probably gonna I'm gonna start watching the Netflix series.
We'll see how that goes and the differences between there.
And then the other thing that I wanted to recommend
that I actually just watched recently is the anti social

(53:57):
Network that actually came out in twenty twenty four or
another documentary, and it basically to boil all the down
shows the link edge, the linkage between four Chan and
the mag of movement as you see oh wow, yeah,
and when you like the way it connected the dots
and the way that the people who were involved in

(54:18):
the creation and group of four chan, like those are
the people who do the primary first person interviews in it.
And when they start making the links to all of
the ways that all the different like major social things
that's happened in this country in the last fifteen twenty years,
right like Occupy Wall Street. When it comes to like

(54:40):
those man against the Machine type things, Occupy Wall Street, Anonymous,
the Tea Party, all this other stuff, like when you
see the linkage between that and how again how dangerous
things have become with so many things happen internet spilling
over to the real world and how people get and
essentially is also precursor to show how people get red

(55:02):
pilled again those like the people who they typically go to,
young men who are lonely or feel slighted, and this,
this and that, and now you have this community of
quote like minded people who get you into conspiracy theories
and get you into misogyny and all this other stuff,
right and this this documentary actually goes into all of that,
and like it really draws the lines very cleanly, and

(55:26):
you're like, oh shit, that's where these people are coming from.
And all those now this damn near all of those
fortune people are now grown as mag of people. That's
what I got from it, besides other things, But that
was kind of the main point I got. But it's
again very interesting just how that works. Another thing that
I got out of it was just like, damn white people. Wow,

(55:49):
you guys, really, I'll do yourselves every every decade, every decade,
every decade. People that I saw, not to say there
aren't because we've seen some were black folks as part
of the we know some, mac we know some, but
it's just the vast majority.

Speaker 3 (56:08):
So okay, so yeah, look them crackers, like you know
what I mean, you got a call?

Speaker 2 (56:13):
How you see it?

Speaker 1 (56:15):
You're not wrong? Then, I mean so yeah, so the
Anti Social Network, the two Kastrina documentaries, but I mean
mentioned not Robotech but robo Force.

Speaker 2 (56:24):
Yes, shot robo Force, not Robotech because right now, the.

Speaker 1 (56:28):
Long Walk again, I recommend it, but be careful, but
these are all kind of recommended items.

Speaker 3 (56:34):
Yeah, and also Creature Commandos because and I'm loving it.
I got two more episodes. I'm really tight that it
was only seven episodes in the seven I don't.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
I don't know if I watch it because it's not
that's not really my I'm not really into that.

Speaker 2 (56:48):
But I'm telling you I felt the same way.

Speaker 3 (56:51):
That's why I didn't, because it was funny, like I
watched the first episode, because you know, when you go
back to watch something that's like, oh, I'm already on
the second, and I don't remember the first at all.
But I was like, fuck it, I'm already on the second.
I'm going to the second. I'm not going back.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
You know, you didn't remember the first.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
And what was you doing ignoring it? You know what
I mean? Probably working on beats. That's that's what it
usually happened.

Speaker 3 (57:10):
I'll started watching something and I'll start working on music,
and it's just like it'll become background noise. So yeah,
I did not remember the first episode, but by the
end of the second I was like, damn, I kind
of need to go back and watch the first. I
really enjoyed it, like it's it's James gun that's the thing.
It's and he knows how to tell a story. He
knows how to pull heartstrings. There's one episode with the

(57:30):
Weasel from Suicide Squad. If you saw the one with
Ris Elba, well, wesel is a character who did not talk.

Speaker 2 (57:37):
He he yeah, so you know the man.

Speaker 3 (57:40):
Yeah, that episode that centers on the Weasel is one
of the most heart pulling, like fucked up At the end,
I'm sitting there like, damn, that fucked up what they
did to that day, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (57:51):
It is like that, like he knows how to do it.
This is pure James Gunn.

Speaker 3 (57:55):
This is like, you know, Guardians of the Galaxy punching
you in the chest type James Dunn. So if you
like that shit. I would definitely Poppins. Yeah, yeah, yes,
this is that. This is fucking Mary Poppins, every damn episode.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (58:12):
The Bride of Frankenstein episode was like that. The Weeza
episode is like that, Gi Robots whatever, I'm I think
I'm on the dude who's like a flaming skull. I
don't know his name, but yeah, the bride episode and
the running story of the Bride and the real Frank
is time. I can't wait to see how that ends,
because that shit is wild. And they got, like I said,

(58:34):
two more episodes. But we do have, you know, some
other things, some wak coming in asked questions.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
Yes, please make sure you guys every week we want

spaces we put on TikTok ig, proply Twitter.

Speaker 2 (59:31):
You'll definitely be seeing these a lot more.

Speaker 3 (59:33):
We're gonna make sure we start flooding you know, these
socials first of what we got, So the.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
First comes on our very own Engineer Extraordinaire Luna. Luna
Rights Ben spoke before about the DCU having tonal differences
when it comes to Superman Peacemaker. I agree and think
that's going to be a strong point for the films
and shows moving forward. My question is what kind of
tone would you like to see for the upcoming Green
Lantern series on HBO.

Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
Dad is a great question, Luna, And it's funny because
somebody made this point on a comment session a few
weeks ago and I was like, ooh, and it really
made me hype for the show because it's not called
Green Lanterns. The show is called Lanterns and that when
somebody made that point, I'm like, oh, and then they
had there's a video of Nathan Fillion, right because he

(01:00:23):
plays yeah, he's playing Hal.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
Jordan, and he's still Guy Gardner.

Speaker 2 (01:00:31):
Guy Gardner who's playing How Jordan in them?

Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
How Jordan is Kyle Chandler.

Speaker 2 (01:00:35):
Kyle Chandler, Yeah, the other he's a great actor and
my fave.

Speaker 1 (01:00:43):
He's John Stewart.

Speaker 3 (01:00:44):
Yeah, yeah, he's Jon Stewart. And so again it's Lanterns, right,
and you have Kyle Chandler, who's an older actor and
airpier new hotness. So it's probably you know, how Jordans
Now How Jordan does a lot of different things in
the commons. So we'll see how it goes. But back
to the name Lanterns and Kyle Channer, there's a video
of him talking or it might have been Nathan Filling.

(01:01:06):
I think it wasn't Nathan who's in Nathan is also
in it, yep. And there's a video of Nathan talking
about all the different colors of the lanterns and naming
them and being like, Okay, orange is about greed, Blue
is about hope.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
This is about that and knowing all about it. So
just the fact that, I mean, you know he's a geek,
but we also know Gun is geek. We know everyone
involved in the geek they're gonna pull on the lore.
So I think we're gonna see a lot of different
shades of Lanterns instead of just green. But as far
as tone, i've heard stories of like or you know
a lot of people talk about True Detective. That's one

(01:01:44):
of the references that they've been given for this, which
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
True Detective might be a little too dark for what
I want to see from Lanterns.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
I mean, I want to see like you think about Superman, right,
like minus the scenes with soups, where again it was
more lighthearted and goofy when it was just centered on
the Justice Gang or whatever they called like that tone
where it was just like it was adult but there
were some funny shit happening, but not like goofy funny.

(01:02:19):
It was just like smart humor and sharp, like kind
of that sharp comedy that's smart. There's action and maybe
a little bit of drama. I would like that probably
to be the tone of this. And again because it's
about the lantern core. So there's a lot of different
people in different personalities. And also like I can't see

(01:02:42):
Nate's how how how like being warded down from what
you saw in Superman, So I like and what he
was in Superman is the nigga just like was cracking
on everybody. So I just I can't see them like
stopping that from happening again.

Speaker 2 (01:02:59):
So I don't know, I better see.

Speaker 3 (01:03:01):
I think it should be a thing, and I think
this is yeah, and I think this is what gunned
the balancing that I think that's gonna be. Like how
when you saw in She Hulk, when we saw Daredevil
show up in Sea Hulk where she hop was a
completely different series than what you know, the dar level series.

Speaker 2 (01:03:19):
Yeah, and he reacted and acted in that way. It worked,
you know, he worked in that way, And.

Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
I think that's how it should be, Like Guard Garner
should be, I think, not toned down, but I think
when he encounters it because if they do do and
I think they are because you remember, it should be
an hour long series on HBO Max. So I don't
think they're gonna go for like the comedy even like
the version of I think they're gonna really it's gould
be totally different than what we saw from even the

(01:03:45):
Justice Ding. I think it's could be because it's gonna
be on Earth from a lot of it. I don't
think they're gonna get into space maybe like parts of it.
But the first shot that they released is of how
and John walking down the road and the thing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
I just don't want it to be two almost street level,
because I'm like, yeah, because you have the rings. That's
my point. You ye still got these fucking rings, and
you know, I don't want it to be fucking hot
wheels car track like you know, Ryan Reynolds. But I
also don't want it to be like a prosue dual
drama with lanterns, like I don't know if that would
work either.

Speaker 3 (01:04:21):
Well, we'll see, but I do say one of my
favorite Green Lantern series from back on the Day was
when he was he wasn't in the court at the time,
and how it's just like riding across America on a bike.

Speaker 1 (01:04:32):
Now he like the lead up to him joining the chorus,
he already no, he.

Speaker 3 (01:04:35):
Got kicked out of the court at this point. I
think the corp would dissolve one or the others. So
he was just like on Earth and he had the ring,
but he was just driving around.

Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
He didn't really wear the suit. He didn't want people
to know these green Lander but he ended up doing
stuff with But it was a really dope series. I
really love that series.

Speaker 3 (01:04:49):
I think that was the first Green Lantern series that
I read, so it, you know, has that installedial thing too,
But it was just really nice. And he did use
the ring a lot, you know, So I think that's
gonna be the out anywhere. You won't always see them
in the suits, but you'll see them using the ringing
when they need to.

Speaker 1 (01:05:05):
As long as I see the rings being used, I'm
with it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
Oh yeah, you're gonna have to.

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
It's gonna be great. I feel like it's gonna be great.

Speaker 2 (01:05:13):
Yeah, I really do have a faith.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):
Yeah, after like I said, after really examining what they
did with Superman, with Peacemaker and with.

Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
Creature Commandos, I have it's just like, nah, man, I
really I'm so it hurts because I want to be
dis excited for like the X Men coming to the NCU,
because this is the type of ship that the X
Men should bring it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
Though I'm not I'm not seven.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
But yeah, but that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (01:05:40):
It's like X Men right now, they should be like, Okay,
we have, you know, an X Men movie coming out,
and then we've got a fucking Rogue TV series, you know,
or a kro Cola TV series, and then we've got
a new Mutant's TV series, and that's how it should
be doing. And not doing that, there's like, we got
one movie that's directed by the dude who did some
book shit. I'm sorry, you know, it's directed by this

(01:06:02):
white guy who's done a bunch of average stuff and
I can't trust that. So I can't trust that. It's
just yeah, while like over here it's like James Johon's like, oh,
I got this director and you know, he brought me
a version because he said that he wasn't even thinking
about doing a play Face movie until the director was like, oh,
I have this idea in this scrip.

Speaker 2 (01:06:20):
Check this out. And he was like, Yo, this is
so ill, we gotta do it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
I wouldn't think clay Face would be the first person
you go to, but.

Speaker 3 (01:06:26):
Yeah, and there so, and he's like, but it was
an ill body horror type thing where it's like, you know,
it's gloring what it means to be playfaced, right, And
I'm like, that's dope, you know, and I want to
see that. And then it's and it has nothing to
do with Superman, but that's fire. I don't need it,
you know. And that's that's one problem a Marvel because
of the whole Infinity saga day, like now everything must
link into a big you know, and that we were

(01:06:47):
talking about doomsday and it's like that's why I'm not
excited for Doomsday, Like I don't know that there's.

Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
Going to be some big, dark sided you know, villain
in DC, and I don't care.

Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
I just want to see dope movies and that's what's
happening right now and dope shows, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:07:01):
And it's like I think Marvel needs.

Speaker 3 (01:07:03):
To get back to that, and I think that would
be there road with X Men, because it's like X
Men doesn't need a big movie, it just needs you know,
you can do a gamer Throne series with X Men.

Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
But god damn it, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:07:15):
Like it's right there, Sue. I sound like this is
literally the inverse of what it was again fifteen years ago,
where I'm just like, oh my god, the DC is
pissing me off. Why are they doing this? It's literally yes,
it's it's spin flips.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
It's so it's so interesting it is. And now it's
like I see because I was like.

Speaker 3 (01:07:37):
I'm a peripheral DC fan, but I also dude, like
Marvel used had a book Marvel Universe where they had
like catalog the characters, and DC had DC's Who's Who,
and I would read both of those, and especially I
would read Who's Who because I didn't know most of
those characters. So I have like this encyclopedia knowledge of
just you know, facts about DC characters and random DC characters.

(01:07:58):
You know, I might have never read a book with them,
but I know all these and because of it, I'm
really excited because it's like, I know how wild and
weird and interesting all these DC characters are. And because
it's not the X minut stuff, it's stuff we haven't
really seen that much at the New Gods, who I know,
Ava Duvene was trying to do something with a few

(01:08:19):
years ago, but the New Gods are really dope characters,
you know, it's so many. I mean, Metamorpho was one
of those characters where I was like, yeah, that's you
know that's a really ill character. And now he's been
on screening the Supergirl like that Supergirl grapha novel I'll
tell everyone Supergirl, Woman of Tomorrow. I think it is
by Tom King. It is what the new book is

(01:08:39):
based on. Go check it out, y'all, like, go pick
it up. They put it back in print. It is
incredible and it will get you so hyph for this movie.

Speaker 2 (01:08:49):
Yeah, the god Tom King, So you know God, yep.

Speaker 1 (01:08:55):
The next The last question comes from Ja or J.
Sorry if I missed A or just Jay.

Speaker 2 (01:09:06):
It might be either one.

Speaker 1 (01:09:08):
They right, I watched the last episode, so I know
genre is not really real. But what is y'all's favorite
era and genre of music? Minus nineties?

Speaker 3 (01:09:16):
Dancel always a classic nineties and early two thousands to
mid two thousands. There was a lot of crack cocaine
in those producer studios in Jamaica. Because those rhythms are eternal,
boy like, those are some of the greatest beats ever
committed to Wax.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
I don't know if I have a favorite genre because
I really sick across the spectrum of sound. Right. I
love I love rap, hip hop, I love R and B,
I love E, D M, I love, you know, could
be drum and bass, like I you know, the subs,
the sub the sub categories of the genres right instruments,

(01:10:00):
like I like and appreciate all of these different things.
I can't also can't say favorite error per se, but
I could say era that stirs the most nostalgia, and
that would be like the two thousands of the crunk era,
because that was when I was coming up in school
and that was like that was the formidable time of

(01:10:22):
you know, like like we I always say, we always
make a joke about like people in my age, like
we were the original y ns, Like we was the
ones going to the clubs, tearing it up, you know,
you know, listen to Bone Crusher and all this other
stuff like that was my time. So and just in
terms of that idea, I would just say that error
because it was just like people was dancing in the clubs. Okay,

(01:10:45):
we was wearing business casules, sweating that shit out right,
We was, We was living. And not to say that
that's not happening now because like there is a resurgence
of that energy about like actually having fun with other people,
dancing with other people, just being alive versus staring at
each other. That's reseurging. But again just just as far

(01:11:05):
as the thing that probably just stokes the most great
memories was probably that that crunk era. But you know,
I I I really appreciate like the entire their entire thing,
especially stuff now, like I really like the New Kids now.

Speaker 2 (01:11:20):
So yeah, I'm the.

Speaker 3 (01:11:22):
Same way I went and as a DJ, because I've
been DJing through all these eras, Like it's you know,
like I love that era you were talking about because
that's like, you know, when you talk about nostalgia that
brings people back to love and dream nightclub and it's like,
those are some of my formative years as a DJ,
and just some of the greatest times of my life
for that matter.

Speaker 1 (01:11:42):
So I mean like scenes like people don't know what
that like. Like a lot of the gen z they like,
what was it like in the club in two thousand
and I wasn't yet in the clubs, but I was
in the clubs by the time I got the Howard,
I was in the clubs. The crunk era was like
cooling off a little bit, but it was still it
was still fairly strong, and to see one song shift

(01:12:06):
the entire crowded ass club where it could be Elbow's
getting throwed. You understand, like like to see the power
of the song in motion and bodies on the floor
and whether that was you know, you know you talk
about back that ass up or you're talking about again.
I mentioned like fucking three six, Mafia eight Ball and

(01:12:26):
MJG type shit like going crazy and that was a
great era.

Speaker 3 (01:12:31):
But I think about like people like when like I
actually got people you know, mad at me today because
I posted a video of me playing can We Talk
and was like, yo, you know, shut up about stop
playing Tevin Campbell's Can't We Talk?

Speaker 2 (01:12:43):
Yes every time?

Speaker 1 (01:12:45):
That's the hood classic. That's that's that's an African American classic.
Why would you stop playing?

Speaker 3 (01:12:49):
To that point, I was saying, it would be so
hard for you, Like when you asked about what it
was like in the club, people don't understand how it
was when let's say the Benjamin's was out, or when
in the club was out, or when put your hands
from my eyes and she was out. Like I literally
was in the club at one point and saw DJ

(01:13:10):
S and S play Benjamin's about twenty times in a
row and it never lost a moment, you know, like
and then and when he stopped playing it, I swear
to God, true story.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
I turned my boy. I was like, Yo, this ain't
gonna be good, and fight broke out to see a
song we played twenty times in a row and they
still have.

Speaker 1 (01:13:38):
The same effect. To see people go fearal over certain
songs was incredible to watch it just again. That's why
I like that era. And I guess, I guess maybe
that ends up it is going to end up being
my favorite. But like that, that time was was insane.

Speaker 2 (01:13:51):
I mean, anytime before people had phones was really you know,
because it was just it was just a different thing.
In love.

Speaker 1 (01:13:58):
The phone is the way we are because I had
a phone, but.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
You know the way they are now. Like I mean,
I remember when like.

Speaker 3 (01:14:05):
This is inauguration, I shot the video it's famous footage
of Gez and jay Z performing My President is Black,
And I shot that footage. If you ever google it
and see it, that was me shooting that footage and
so camera shot from behind them up above.

Speaker 2 (01:14:22):
And it was just the.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
Fact that back then, even if you had a phone,
they didn't have a fucking camera on it like that.
And I actually had a real camera. So and I
was one of the few people in the club that
night who had a real camera. And nowadays every motherfuck
in the world would have the camera.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
So you did have a camera. It was that two
megapixel ship that.

Speaker 2 (01:14:41):
They couldn't do nothing with it.

Speaker 3 (01:14:42):
And I had a real handheld h VHSC I think
doing with you know, cartridges and tapes and so that
ship shot that footage and that you know, that's why
I have it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:53):
But that that's what I'm saying, that type of error.

Speaker 3 (01:14:55):
It was like all the way up to like I
remember that Homecoming when we Fly High came out.

Speaker 1 (01:15:00):
Oh my god, yeah, oh dipset, I'm being from New York.
That's my like again when I talk about going Pharaoh,
when you hear certain songs.

Speaker 2 (01:15:13):
To this day, like I was at Howard when Cam
got shot, you know what I mean Like that, Yeah, yeah,
like that, Like yeah, I'm I'm like, I just saw
Tyler this summer. You know, I thought he was fucking incredible.

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
Tyler, I go crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:15:29):
Yeah, I think he's one of my favorite artists ever.
And so it's like genre said it, like like you said,
I'm a you know, I'm a music So it's like
I can never choose a genre, Like what was that
last year? I think last year I got addicted to
John Coltrane and I never and not even protrayed The
Loneous Monk even more. And I never really paid that
much attention the Loneous like that, and I was reading

(01:15:51):
books on the man. That's how much I was listening
to his ship because it was just, you know, I
was just like, oh my god, you know, my eyes
was open. And then at the same time, I got
really into resilient funk, like modern brazilion funk, really straight
up hard beats and remixes and a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:16:07):
Of that when we were in Brazil this summer.

Speaker 3 (01:16:09):
Yeah, yep, so I got into that. And so it's
like I'm always listening to different ship. I heard about
some new stuff that's coming out of like South Africa.
I gotta find out, Like that's after I'm a piano,
I gotta find out about that, or it's not even
South Africa after no, it's like a piano is still
South Africa, like another region of Africa is doing their
own heavy.

Speaker 1 (01:16:33):
Heavy heavy, and and again just to give you guys
like context and what I mean, Like I said, I
like everything, like you know, went to a Copboy card
a concert, went to the Tyler concert, going to the
k tr Nada Justice concert, going to see Erica by dude, Like,
I'm all over the map when it comes to music,
I am. I'm a purveyor and lover of music and

(01:16:57):
good music, good music that hits you and as rhythm
and life like that's the shit that I like. The genre.

Speaker 3 (01:17:04):
I like music, Yeah, No, I mean, like I said
on the show, that's it's one of my I'm I'm
an anti idea genre. That's why I feel like genre
is mainly rude and racism and separatism, and it's two
of the things that I cannot stand.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
And so that's why I.

Speaker 3 (01:17:20):
Like because all music is Black music, especially all American
music is pretty much all major popular American music is
black music, and black people pretty much have made blues
music with different changes in technology, et cetera, and genre
as most like artists say, like Miles David says, I
don't make jazz I mad pop music because it's very

(01:17:41):
popular music. What he would say, you know, Michael Jackson
said the same thing, and he's like, don't separate me
by putting me into these categories that you reserve for
urban artists, but that's all jazz is always like these
niggas are making jazz, urban nip hop, you know, and
so it's like, no, nigga, we are making music, and
we're making the most popular music and we're making the

(01:18:01):
backbone of American music. So I'm never a person, you know,
I'm always into exploring.

Speaker 2 (01:18:08):
The buddy guy.

Speaker 3 (01:18:08):
For everybody who saw Centers that nigga dropped a new album,
It's firefam. That ship is fucking slamm and I'm jamming
that shit a free weeks ago when it dropped. That
shit is fire and Juicy Jay's fucking jazz album is it?

Speaker 2 (01:18:23):
Oh yeah, what nigga taking my kids to school?

Speaker 3 (01:18:27):
That ship is a jam. That's what drests on there,
taking my kids to school.

Speaker 2 (01:18:32):
It is a full blown funky ass jazz album like
it is.

Speaker 1 (01:18:36):
Yeah, because I'm interested in watching like all of like
these well, in my in my view, older school, old
school coming with a new quote genre.

Speaker 2 (01:18:45):
That shit was mind blowing.

Speaker 1 (01:18:46):
I tried Andre's three thousand Flu album and I wasn't
really I trieded, y'all, and like, I'm very open minded,
and they didn't do it for me. So that's why
I was like, I was a little nervous about Juicy Jaw.

Speaker 3 (01:19:01):
No, that shit is jamming. Taking my kids to school
as a jam. There's a couple on there that are
like and they're just straight instrumental. He raps on a
couple of black thought raps on some on one, but
a lot of it is instrumental.

Speaker 2 (01:19:13):
Like I said, taking my kids schools, that's my jam,
you know what I mean? That is a jam where
I'm like, okay, but you know, it's like that saying.
I've always people underestimate how talented a lot of these
people are, you know, like Juicy j. Like I always
talk about shot G.

Speaker 3 (01:19:30):
You know, it's just one of the most genius hip
hop producers and also played mad instruments.

Speaker 2 (01:19:36):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:19:37):
Flavor Flav, who people think of as this clown, is
a classically trained pianist, can pick up pretty much any.

Speaker 1 (01:19:44):
Instrument you can name.

Speaker 3 (01:19:46):
Yeah, yeah, he can pick up any instrument you can
name and play it pretty well.

Speaker 2 (01:19:51):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:19:51):
It's so many people like that. DJ Quick is an
absolute genius, you know, instrumentalist all this stuff. DJ Quick
has been having instrumental jam on every one of his
albums going back to the very first one, and they're
always like bangers. So it's like people don't realize how talented,
and that's the thing because they get put in these boxes.
Starface for years wanted to do a rock and rap

(01:20:13):
and funk album because he plays Gutari plays based on
all that type of shit. But he was always like
people wouldn't accept it, you know, they won't let me
do anything but rap albums, and that was always a
big problem. So, like you said, it's really great that
now people like Juicy J. I heard Boosey got a
country album or a blues album and they say it's
pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:20:33):
I know, I was same thing.

Speaker 3 (01:20:35):
But my man's like Juicy J's last four projects have
all been fired and they're all different, like because he
did the jazz and then earlier this year he dropped
like a plastic Juicy J album, but then like last
year or two years ago, he dropped like a real
hip hop Juicy J album, you know, like very different
than his normal stuff. So he's been doing all kinds
of stuff. So it's really dope to see.

Speaker 1 (01:20:56):
Yeah, I like ww artists do that, and like he's
more of a new artist. But big ext the plug.
Like his new album is her country Altuts. I heard,
but it's all country. Yeah, he has crazy features on it.
So great album. I know, like we're like all off
topic now, but like also Tiana Taylor's album, Gee's Sauce,

(01:21:19):
it is so good. Geauce is so like I'm so
happy that she was able to come back to music.
You know, she's famously you know, retired from it a
few years ago because of the industry and all the
other stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:21:31):
But man, all right, I'm gonna definitely keep that then. No,
like man Earl sweatshirts, new one was not hitting me
like that. I tried.

Speaker 3 (01:21:41):
I tried, really, I mean that niggas be rapping, you know,
just like Blad but blaad and the beats were just
like not there. Yeah, I heard Chance is good, but
the Chance yet I don't like the singles. But I
heard the album is good, but the school and the
other one was cool. But if you were like notice
and I'm a you know, coloring book acid wrap, those
are my jams, So I want to give it a chance. Yeah,

(01:22:04):
because I've heard, but I didn't like them singles.

Speaker 2 (01:22:08):
Whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:22:09):
One more thing you wanted to mention about your new show.

Speaker 3 (01:22:13):

about it. It's been an amazing journey. I know it's
still going on, but just really thank you to everyone
who has supported this book in any way shape form.
I got to give a copy to Juno Das last night,

Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:24:27):
Look at Tatana with double double fisting that hope beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:24:34):

day it is so surreal.

I want to say that's I'm really glad you said that, because, guys,
this is your opportunity. We always keep saying we want
to be on other people's shows. We want to guess
on your shows. This is an opportunity to interview Ben
and find out how does he feel about it being
one year at least today is one year to today,
but it's been one year, and how you feel what
has changed. I'm not going to give you all the
interview questions. You can figure that out, but I think

(01:25:00):
it should be a great prime opportunity. Again, hit us
up contactfoll nerds dot com, or you can send us
a DM. We want to be on your shows, whether
together individually, whatever projects either of us have going on,
if you want to talk to both of us at
the same time, whatever, We are willing to be guests
on the show as well, So please hit us up.

Speaker 2 (01:25:19):
Yep. And on that note, the other night, I actually
put together a rough draft of an outline for the
first issue of what would be a sequel to Hendrix.

Speaker 1 (01:25:29):
So yeah, you and Mellow back at it again.

Speaker 2 (01:25:34):
Well, I actually wrote this.

Speaker 3 (01:25:35):
I put together this outline on my own because this
it might not end up being an official sequel to Hendrix.

Speaker 2 (01:25:41):
We'll see.

Speaker 3 (01:25:41):
You know, Titan publisher wants to get it together. But
if not, you know, it'll be a you know it'll
be it'll be some good quest. Yeah, it'll be a
side quest hit starter. Yeah, and it'll feature some characters
from Hindricks.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
You know. That's all I can say so far. But yeah,
it's spin off, a spin off.

Speaker 3 (01:25:56):
Yes, look at you building a universe, a quasi legal spinoff.
