Hot dear and you're. Live.
It's my favorite James Brown song, Hot dear.
Anyway, what's up everybody? Welcome to big dumb monsters.
I'm Chris. I'm Nick.
And this week we watched Love and Monsters, which was just a a
(01:09):
fun delightful. Romp.
Yeah, yeah. That's just good.
Yeah. We will mostly talk about it
during the review part of the move.
We talk, you know, we we talk about it a fair bit.
We definitely go off the fuckingrails.
Yeah. Oh yeah.
Like we normally do. As is our way.
(01:30):
But yeah, hope you enjoy hearingus go off those rails.
So here we go, talking about love and monsters on big dumb
monsters. Enjoy the show.
(02:18):
Monday again. There we are.
Hi, how are you? Fingers crossed, ladies and
gentlemen, because we are doing a movie tonight for a specific
reason. We are kicking off Revenge Month
yes, in which we will redo all of the movies we have fucked up
and lost. 3 movies. Over the years, yeah, I think I
(02:40):
I could have sworn there was like one more.
I'm almost positive it's 3. Right, so we have 3 movies to
do. And then and then we're gonna
add 2 revenge themed movies. Yes.
So right now we're starting off with love and monsters.
Next week is I think it's. I think it's.
Chronologically would it would be.
(03:01):
Innocent blood. Yeah.
And then horror of Dracula. Yeah, so we're doing 2 vampire
movies. Which is fine.
It's totally fine. It's because.
They're both bangers. Yeah.
And then week four, we have determined, will be jaws of the
revenge. Yeah, yeah.
We haven't decided on Week 5. We need a fifth revenge movie.
Yeah, You know, in their scene. Anybody has suggestions?
(03:21):
We are open to them. Let us know.
We'll repeat that later. Yeah, but love and monsters,
this movie is still delightful. It's so good.
Yeah, it's so good. It really is like I, I remember
like renting this during the quarantine and like just, you
(03:43):
know, there were like no movies at all.
And this is like one of the few things that came out.
I'm like, fucking, how bad can it be?
I'm like, oh, fuck, this was actually really good.
And then we did it for like I think maybe episode it would
have been like 20 or 21, maybe I.
Don't know something like that. Yeah, that was our first fuck
up, our first lost episode. I would like to point out though
(04:08):
we have lost three episodes, we have never missed a week.
Yeah, Yeah, that's true. That's weird.
Goddamn professionals. Just fucking doing it every
goddamn week got. Yourself a resubscribed Ferrell
Gotham. All right.
Thank you. Thank you.
Yeah. But yeah, no, this movie is fun.
(04:34):
That's all it's supposed to be. Yeah, the effects are fucking
great for CGI. Like, you know, for not being
practical. There's there's enough practical
with the close up stuff that it looks good and then the CG
stuff, you know, like they're huge giant monsters, radiated
bugs, like whatever it's got to be CG like especially for I what
(04:54):
I'm assuming is like not a huge budget.
No, I mean it's. Got to be decent though because
everything looks good. Yeah, it wasn't like huge hype
when it came out, you know? Because it went straight to
Netflix. Yeah, it was supposed to have a
theatrical release, but I mean, we're yeah, COVID fucking ruined
everything. But yeah, it's fucking
(05:15):
delightful. Yeah, I think it succeeds with
like everything it tries to do, because things that are supposed
to be funny are funny. Things that are supposed to be
like heartwarming and endearing are heartwarming and endearing
things that are supposed to be scary or scary.
Yeah, yeah, it does balance all that well.
(05:35):
Like, yeah, a lot of times, likewith the kind of actiony movies,
like when they try to shoehorn in comedy, like it just doesn't
feel right. Like it's just kind of off.
The, the timing has to be perfect and the, the, the, the
things they're joking about haveto work too.
Like this. It's it's like the same ratio of
(06:01):
joke to drama to horror as like a Zombieland.
Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
You know what, they got it rightand they just like, that's it.
That's that's the formula. I'm OK with that formula, yeah.
Do I want a million movies that are like this?
No. But.
Yeah, not everything needs to beyeah, like completely.
(06:23):
They call it like a four post movie or whatever like.
I don't know that. I might be making that up in my
head. It could go either way.
Yeah, sure. Yeah.
Oh, hype train. How about that?
Yeah. Choo Choo motherfucker.
I use my prime. Sub yeah.
I just resubscribed on prime theother day myself.
I I probably have to as well 'cause I just got an ad.
(06:46):
Hold on, wait, can I do it? You have like 4 1/2 minutes.
Yeah, yeah, the hype train. The hype train is a long one,
but no like it. I mean like maybe lengthwise I
would take a little bit out, buteven I can't even think of like
(07:07):
specific things I would cut out.I, I don't know, man.
Like, I like it. I like all of it.
I didn't feel like it dragged. I think that everything was
necessary. I love the Michael Rooker stuff.
Yeah, like that's. Super important.
I wish we could have gotten a little bit more Michael Rooker
(07:29):
because he's maybe in the movie for like 15 minutes.
Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, he's not the
main focus. Like he's, you know, he's
essential, he's in, he's out. Like you don't like that
character doesn't overstay it's welcome and they bring it back a
little bit in the end. So I don't know.
(07:49):
I think it's, I think it's rightlike.
Girth. It is a girthy movie.
Yes, very veiny. Yeah, uh oh.
See now this one exploded. Yeah, and there's nothing extra
added to it. Weird.
(08:16):
Yeah, No, like creature designs looked great.
Yeah, I know that I really do like.
The world looks lived in. Yeah, they do an excellent job
of world building in this, especially with the monsters,
because like we see a handful ofmonsters and they're all like,
you know, pretty distinct and they look cool.
They're very different. Yeah, but you also get hints of
(08:37):
other monsters that we don't see.
You see, like skeletons and stuff like which is perfect.
Like leave a little mystery to the world, like and like, you
know, there's. There was a couple of scenes
too, where like another like hint of other monster scenes.
There's like the one of the first times, like him and the
dog are walking just, they just like a quick shot of them, like
(08:58):
walking down the river and like there's something in the water
facing them. Like it never pays off or
anything, but there's just, you can tell there's just a monster
there. Like, yeah.
That's great. Like, and like a lot of the time
where you get these like post apocalyptic ish movies, you can
tell it's like, oh, that's just a dude walking in the woods.
(09:20):
Like this looks like the wilderness took over the world.
You know, it doesn't just look like he's walking in a field or
just walking in the woods. You know, like there is
character to everything that's around them, which is really
important because it it it stopsit from being Kineric.
And like, I hate a generic movie, you know, like it's like
(09:42):
you're supposed to be wowing me visually with your story.
Like everything like, and if it's if, if it looks like, you
know, outside my back door, like, I don't care.
Yeah. You know, especially if it's
supposed to be some fantastic. Thing back lot or something like
yeah, yeah. You know it's like Middle Earth
looks like motherfucking Middle Earth, right?
(10:04):
It doesn't look like New Zealand.
I'm. Trying to think of things I can
critique this on. I mean, like the obvious, like
villains, like, you know, this perfect guy.
Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah, That was.
(10:25):
That was really like obvious. Yeah.
I like the payoff, though. You know, the crab that's
dragging their yacht around is great.
Yeah. The idea that like it's not a
dangerous creature, but like the.
Scenery A+ yeah. On screen celebration.
(10:48):
I don't know what that means. I don't know, how about a?
Cheers. Oh shit, there we go.
Monster. Oh, hey, there's hearts.
Maybe that's what that was. Yeah.
(11:11):
Yeah. Like that character sucked.
Yeah, that character sucked, butI like that.
I like that he made this like 7 day journey to find somebody
that like really didn't care if he went like that's a fun like
(11:32):
not it's not fun. It's like it feels bad for him,
but like like that's a good way to do that.
It's not just like the two distant lovers.
They meet up and everything's like fireworks.
Yeah, she's like, oh. You, you're actually here.
I have a whole life. I was going to say I like it's
(11:55):
metaphorically like very relatable.
Everybody I think has taken thatfucking like that leap of like,
fuck if I, you know, if this doesn't pay off.
Like with someone there, they, they give a shit about like
you're trying to date or whatever.
Like I'm just going to be like the biggest fucking idiot if I,
if this doesn't pay off. So 20%, yeah.
So everybody's been in that situation.
Granted, without giant monsters,yeah, you know, but who knows
(12:19):
the way 2025's going, fucking wecould have giant monsters.
Right down the right, down the way.
Yeah, Let's see what else we got.
I mean, he's a little annoying at first, but his character does
(12:39):
grow on you. I think over as you know, the
movie goes as he like kind of grows more.
Yeah, yeah, develops. More, He started off a little
too insufferable, I think. Yeah, yeah.
Very much like a Jay Burchell kind of thing.
And but then, like, you wind up liking him.
You wind up, you know, on his side through the whole thing.
And it really doesn't even take that long.
(13:00):
Yeah. I think because you just.
He's a guy that, you know, you know what I mean?
I think everybody's got that, that friend that's got similar
characteristics to him. With the Tarantino shout out
there with the foot shot. Oh yeah, she had socks on at
least. And they weren't filthy also,
(13:25):
yeah. That's another big thing for
him. Oh, pardon me.
No, I don't think I will. Yeah, yeah, it's a rhyme.
It's fine. It's fine.
Everything's fine. What'd you do?
Storm the Capitol. Oh, my bad.
Carry on. No, I'm I'm fucking.
(13:50):
I'm right. Agree.
Yeah, no, this is just a fun. This is like think like a modern
Saturday afternoon movie. Like this really is the epitome
of all that. It's fun.
Like, you know, you could just put it on for a couple minutes
if you know, you just happen to catch it.
(14:10):
Like, you know, while it's. On Yeah, it's cool to just be on
because there's always somethingcool to look at.
Yeah, like it's easy to jump into the story.
I don't. I don't see why this isn't like
a bigger movie. You know what I mean?
Yeah, Yeah. I, I guess, I guess because it
went straight to Netflix it, it lost a lot of steam, but like
(14:31):
still, like there's a lot of things that went right to
Netflix that people like really latched onto and like I heard a
little bit of hype about this when it first came out, but then
it all just kind of went away. Yeah, I like, I even thought
they were making a sequel to this, like a guy had gotten
enough steam at one point. Yeah, where they were working on
a sequel. I don't know that I want a
sequel though. Yeah, I don't know.
(14:53):
It's like if. If they could ensure the
quality, like yeah, yeah, yeah, like nobody can ensure the
quality anymore these days in the in the sequel.
Yeah, but like this feels like enough, you know what I mean?
Like or or do something different, right?
Like this could work as I mean, OK, I'm going to sound like a
(15:18):
fucking tool, right? But I'm a big fan of like audio
drama podcasts. This could be amazing because it
could be like reports and survival guides and like him,
just like speaking into the radio.
Yeah, like somebody like, like. Broadcasting.
Yeah, yeah, he's doing, you know, Yeah, that would be cool.
(15:41):
I think that's like a fun way tocontinue this not just second
movie with the same old shit in it.
Yeah, yeah, I know. I think this is like way too
good of a world to not like at least get a little more content
out of. Yeah.
You know, like I said, they did such a good job of like, like,
(16:01):
you know, establishing this world.
You said it feels lived in. Like, you know, there's just,
it's too good of a world to justletting to have be at one and
done. And I think, I think it's it's
it's really great that you get the feeling of like everything
that's going on here. Yeah, without a whole lot of
(16:24):
back story, they give you some. You know, there was a meteorite.
Yeah, you get just what you need.
We blasted a bunch of rockets atit, rock rockets exploded, and
then all the shit that's in rockets then fell to Earth.
Now here we are. Yeah, perfect enough.
I like, it's a fun post apocalyptic movie.
(16:46):
I don't need like super detailedback story on that.
Yeah, like we're ready to roll. Yeah, it's a simple setup.
Boom, giant bugs. Yeah, and lizards and fucking
fish and shit. Yeah, let's see.
Need to see the trek into the mountains.
Yeah, like that would be cool. Like I, I would like that, but
(17:06):
like, it runs the risk of just becoming like the Oregon Trail
with monsters, you know what I mean?
Like, yeah, that's cool. It is cool.
But like, we've already got thatlike.
This is like there wouldn't be awhole lot of cold blooded things
in the mountains. Maybe like you get some mutated
eagles or something like that would be cool.
(17:27):
Other than Don Henley. Jesus Christ.
I hate the fucking Eagles man I.Really do hate the fucking
Eagles. I don't.
I don't hate the Eagles. I like Steve Miller fan for.
Him. Yeah, yeah.
I fucking hate Steve Miller. I like, I was never a fan.
And then like a couple of times recently, like I left the Joker
(17:49):
on the radio. I don't even know you.
Anymore, what have I become? You're watching Bob Dylan
movies. You're listening to Steve
Miller. The fuck, man.
I thought you had some God damn backbone.
(18:12):
I'm not like, you know, fucking rocking out to big old jetliner
fucking. You know what's crazy?
All right, all right, Big old Jetliner has one of the coolest
fucking openings musically in a song ever.
It's fucking, it's fucking rules.
And then 10 seconds later, bang trash.
(18:35):
I remember when I was in high school, Steve Miller was like
the concert that like fucking everybody would go to it's back.
Like Steve Miller. Steve Miller, it was like.
Nobody pre Dave. Yeah, well, yeah, that
motherfucker too. Fuck the Dave people.
Yeah, I hate Dave Matthews with a burning fucking passion.
The. Only thing they did that was
(18:56):
ever good was drop a bunch of shit on people.
That's it. The only release of theirs I
will endorse. So, so like Dave Matthews and I
(19:17):
both will shit on his fans, That's what you're saying?
I have said before, Dave Matthews ruined my fucking prom.
That's not even a joke or an exaggeration.
Yeah. It's just horrible, horrible.
Shitty, warbly, crappy music. It's for fucking for it's for
(19:43):
people to like smoke weed and stink to or play golf.
Fucking actually. You know what?
I don't think there's many. It's probably not golfers.
They're like they're like they're like Frisbee golf.
The. Bros and preps like when I was
in high school. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fuck all of that. Oh God I hate that music so
(20:06):
much. It is literally like against
everything I stand for musically.
Anyway. Loving Monsters was awesome.
Loving monsters. Awesome.
Dave Matthews Trash. Fucking terrible.
I will see that motherfucker in hell one day.
Yeah, probably live in concert. That's your hell.
(20:31):
It would be both of our Hells because that would be vocal
about it. You fucking?
Your pyjama pants probably smelllike nut sack, yeah.
Fuck yeah, throwing anything I could get a hand on.
One of the funniest things. We're totally off track, but one
of the funniest things I've everseen at a fucking concert in my
(20:51):
entire life. I was a junior in high school.
This is when I saw the Ramones. The same like outdoor music
festival we saw the Ramones at one of the opening bands was
this fucking like hippie Vermontband called the Bog Man.
And yeah, the crowd was not feeling the Bog Man, right?
Fucking Oh, you're telling me the Ramones fans weren't feeling
(21:15):
the. Bog man Yeah, right.
And like at one point, like fucking the lead singer whips
out an acoustic guitar and then you can hear the entire crowd
just like fucking. He's like, Oh no, relax.
He's like, it's not an acoustic guitar.
Like he plugs it in and like plays it and I shit you not like
(21:36):
dead silence. And my friend Mark just goes,
that's still an acoustic guitar,you asshole.
Fucking sorry. Later on, like again, he's just
trying to win the crowd over. And like he's nobody is fucking.
It's just a bunch of unhappy leather clad people in the hot
(21:57):
like blazing sun. Yeah, so fucking that one point.
Dudes that want to scream Gabba Gabba hey.
Yeah, yeah. At one point the lead singer's
like, hey, somebody throw me a beer.
I don't. Know if this really Hawk 1?
I don't know if this was planned, but this is brilliant,
right? Somebody lost one like way up.
(22:18):
This is the first one to go. So it was like, I think he's
just his big goofy smile as he'sgoing to catch it.
Yeah. And then somebody, fucking
rockets went right into his chest.
Fuck him. Oh, funniest thing I've ever
seen in a concert. Christ.
(22:48):
I I have not seen Fozzie or Volbeat live Sam, but I would I
would. I love Volbeat and Fozzie's fun.
Well they were when they were a cover band.
(23:08):
Volbeat is not great. Fuck you.
Fuck you. Fozzie might be the best
wrestler fronted band fucking. At least you can say that like.
Yes. Trying to think of it.
(23:29):
I mean like honky tonk man. Oh, pardon me.
Pardon me. Yeah, You know, maybe like that
was too many scoops of was. It.
Yeah, anyway. Yes, can't handle it.
(23:50):
No, I'm handling it. But anyway, loving monsters.
Yeah, it's. Ruin Megadeth show by sucking.
Clutch was. I love clutch.
Clutch is fucking awesome. Yeah, I don't know.
Like, yeah, it's just a fucking rad movie with a ton of
(24:11):
character. Yeah, it's fun.
It's like, it's fun. It's like it's emotional at
times too. Like, yeah, I mean, yeah.
Everything, everything hits likeI I watched this the one time
when we did the episode and I have not gone back for it
(24:31):
because I was so like dismayed. About the episode.
About the episode being lost. And I was like, I just like, I
can't, I can't do it. And now I'm regretting sort of
not going back for it. But also it's OK because I
rediscovered how awesome it is. Yeah.
And that feels good too. You wouldn't have wanted to,
like, water it down and, you know, Yeah.
(24:52):
Pardon me. Yeah.
You ready to rate it? Yeah.
OK, I'll go first. It's a solid 8.
Yeah, I think that's what I gaveit the first time around too.
And I, I, I like, I really, I stand by that eight.
(25:15):
It earns that eight. Like in every way it like, it
almost reminds me of like in terms of it being a big fun,
like showy movie of like an 80s like Spielberg movie.
Like it's in that same spirit, like where it's just, you know,
an awesome world. Like just this.
Everything's just, but everything just clicks.
Like, I don't know. I don't know.
Yeah. You know, it's just like, I love
(25:36):
this monster too. The frog.
The oh, the frog in the, in the Yeah, the pond in the back.
Yeah, I like the design of all of it.
Yeah, like the what the hell arethey?
The the boulder snails? Awesome.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, yeah, all right.
(25:59):
Let's see. Holy shit we just did the
ratings. Wow.
Uh oh. Uh oh.
Yeah, we're good. Chris is in trouble.
Fine, it's fine. It's fine.
I'm professional. It's.
Fine, Yeah, did I? Hear you say you're ready for
trivia. Yeah, yeah.
(26:22):
Not to bother you with trivia. Well, all right, there's
actually not not much for triviahere, but we'll, we'll, we'll
fill it in with some some other shit all.
(26:42):
Right. I will will say there was an 80s
Nintendo game Master Blaster andthere was a like a boss that
reminds that reminds me of this frog.
Yeah, yeah, that was, that was afun game too.
Yeah. Yeah, Hey, you got voice open.
Oh. You getting a phone call?
(27:07):
No, no. Oh.
What the fuck? Why?
Call from. To accept, press 1.
To send a voicemail, press 2. Just hang up on Frankenstein.
Drunk Frankenstein. What the fuck?
(27:29):
Call back. I am calling.
I even turned on notifications this wouldn't happen.
How about we call Frankenstein from now on?
That works for me. Maybe you should.
Well, hello drunk Frankenstein. Welcome back.
I'm glad you guys actually watched a good movie for once.
(27:51):
I love Tango and Cash, Kurt Russell and Stallone.
How do you go wrong? It's a charming piece of Action
Cinema. I 100% I was going to call you
earlier, like text you earlier that morning about if you were
just to come over and I 100% forgot.
(28:14):
I was talking to Arthur, not you, Frankenstein.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. I had said I would come over and
riff on that movie because I love that movie so.
Much that was a fun episode thatit is a really awesome movie.
I like I, I am surprised that that movie doesn't like get more
like kind of play like everybodytalks about like big trouble in
little China, like as far as like 80s action.
That's because it's a perfect movie.
(28:35):
Slow your fucking. Roll.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not saying I'm not trying to
take away from it, but like fucking tango and cash is pretty
fucking fun. It is, Yeah.
It really is. Anyway, love and monsters.
Oh yeah, Frankenstein, have you seen Love and Monsters?
I've loved a lot of monsters. What are you getting at?
(29:00):
All right, well. What the fuck do you want,
Frankenstein? Which one of you assholes stole
my last two beers? It's been a hard day.
I mean, I'm not, I'm not saying we have excess beers, but.
There's no such thing as excess beer.
Yeah, it's true. Yeah.
(29:21):
Don't you have one sad club leftin the fridge?
There is. We do.
Actually. It's like a Utica club.
I I I'm tempted to be right back, but I'll just do that.
There it is. Club.
(29:42):
Club. Yeah, right.
There, a little close to the mic.
There you go. The.
Old unit pubes. Just if I if I were in
advertising a commercial for Utica Club set to Pink Pony
(30:03):
Club, it's just drink Utica Club, drink Utica Club.
Come on, Utica Club. Come on.
Fucking we're ready. Club beer fit through this piano
wire. Don't you tell me my business
again. You're here.
(30:28):
That is our idea. You do a club balls in your
court, reach out. Yeah, yeah, you just have to buy
the rights to that song. Yeah.
Simple, easy, probably cheap. Nobody's heard the fucking song
before. Yeah, exactly.
Drop in the bucket in terms of like can.
We get the Zombie of Frankie Valli to sing it.
(30:53):
The poor bastard, he has no ideawhere he is.
Oh man, I'm. Glad I don't have to watch those
clips anymore Instagram they were making me sad.
Is it like one of those cases where like, his family's clearly
like just pushing him out on stage?
He's still paying mob money, that's what the fuck he's doing.
(31:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was worse than what they were
doing to Stan Lee. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I we talked about Burt Reynolds a couple weeks ago.
I've seen a couple of those at at Conn's and it's who boy.
Burt Reynolds got to look at Roller Girl.
(31:40):
He was roller old man when I sawhim.
That sucks, I don't want to think about my heroes being
decrepit old zombie people. And there was a cool shot of
like a bus on top of a dead giant bee.
What other movie could you say that about?
(32:02):
That's why this movie is so good.
Yeah, this is the shot I was talking about.
Like, but there's something in the water next to them.
Yeah. And like, you never see it.
Like we never. It never pays off.
It doesn't matter. It's just like, it's just cool
side shit. Yeah, you know, it's rare.
I'm going to amend my score. It's a nine.
(32:24):
God damn. It's a nine.
What is there? What is there not to like?
About I endorsed the I endorsed the upgrade.
Yeah, yeah, really. I mean like it it we would
really had to pick hard to like get something to criticize.
Yeah, if it had a little more practical stuff, but it could
work its way to a 10. But like not quite there.
(32:45):
Yeah, yeah. Nice to see you boys watching
good movies for once. Yeah.
You voted above a six is rare. Last week you missed it.
We watched Diary and Survival ofthe Dead.
Diarrhea of the dead. Oh what 2 is respectively.
(33:07):
We did go below the line of rewatch ability.
I want to say they were like threes and fours, yeah.
And even that four of those. Movies is like bragging you had
a three-way, but you did it at the old people's home.
And a three-way at Golden Corral, yeah, that is.
(33:28):
Worse, I think I'd rather have old people's home.
You don't want to even that chocolate fountain for a while.
They're going to eat your chocolate, you dirty bastard.
The old ponderosa # town. There's more STD's at the old
(33:53):
folks home than anywhere else. That includes horny teenagers
that weren't allowed to have health education.
That is true. STI's are rampant in old folks
homes. Yeah, yeah, you.
Just walk in the doors and clickchlamydia.
Like like a koala. Ancient comedy, yeah.
(34:14):
Like yeah fucking they probably got it from the zombie of.
Frankie Valli, syphilis from Al Capone.
Yeah. Oh.
What was that fucking was it from Grandma's boy?
Hey, check out my fucking sexually transmitted disease
from the Great Depression. Cochini, Arthur.
Wasn't it? No.
(34:35):
Cochinita is a bit like that too.
It's like a see bikers who got, you know, still have gonorrhea
from the original Oz Fest. Eddie White will give you the
first strain of herpes. It's just herpes.
Singular. Oh holy shit.
(35:01):
That's nasty. Nasty motherfucker.
That's just nasty. Gross.
Yeah. So Frankenstein we're so we're
we're in revenge month. I don't know if you caught that
at the beginning of the show we're doing.
(35:22):
Revenge. Revenge.
We're doing the three episodes that we lost, we're doing a
second take on them. So we're doing Loving Monsters,
we're doing Innocent Blood and we're doing Horror of Dracula.
And then? Horror.
Dracula. Yeah.
And then? We're going to talk that up on a
(35:42):
previous episode. We did.
Dracula has risen from the grave.
Yep. Did we read to Horror of
Dracula? I don't think so.
I don't think we did. I talked about horror of
Dracula. We'll have to double check that,
but I don't think so I. Don't think we did.
I don't think we did. Well, as long as it's not
(36:04):
Dracula 1972 AD Oh. Yeah, you're you're goofy.
Even if we did, who gives a fuck?
We get to watch Horror of Dracula.
It's fine. Fucking Christopher Lee the
Chad. Just have fun watching a good
movie. Yep, but after that we're going
to do 2 revenge themed movies. We're going to do Jaws the
(36:26):
Revenge and then Question Mark. We haven't picked the fifth one.
Yeah, we need, we need a suggestion.
Yeah. Well, I read the novelization of
Jaws the Revenge. You know there's bullshit voodoo
in that script. That's right.
Yeah, originally like. It took cursed shark.
(36:47):
Yeah, like there was like a voodoo priestess who like, put a
curse on the Brody family or something.
Get the Brody out of the. Cop in New York, he got cursed
by a voodoo priest. In New York, the.
Sharks started to follow them around and then Missus Brody
(37:09):
moved the family to fucking Jamaica, an island surrounded by
water. Good movie.
In her defense, it's full of tiger sharks.
OK, not great whites. Jesus Christ.
A what? Oh, God, I kind of wish they
(37:31):
made that movie. Yeah.
I mean, they did, they just cut the voodoo shit.
Yeah. And Michael Caine is a drug
smuggler. That's his whole character.
One of my favorite jokes if you say if you say my cocaine, it's
Michael Caine saying his own name.
(37:52):
Yeah, perfect accent and everything.
Michael Caine. Yeah.
All right. And why do we follow master?
Bruce. So that we can do cocaine.
He got an 8 ball the size of a tangerine.
(38:15):
Yeah, All right, Frankenstein, we're going to let you go.
If you got to throw a rating on Love and Monsters, what are you
going to? Give it 8-9. 8-9 All right, 8-9.
8-9 sounds like you boys are going to keep watching more
interesting stuff. It's really kind of a hard thing
(38:36):
to do a whole episode about a good movie.
What the fuck are you going to say?
We can talk about the things we like.
We're all from weird tangents when we talk about fucking crazy
shit. Yeah, we talk about Michael
Caine. Yeah, doing cocaine.
Wind up talking about Jello and my cocaine and Chet and yeah,
well, everything but the movie 'cause you're good.
(38:58):
Yeah. Do an episode on The Shining.
Let's find out how you start talking about potato bread.
All right, say goodbye, Frankenstein.
Have a Denver omelette with somepotato bread toast.
Which one you assholes pissed mypants?
Talk to feed. It's a team effort by Frank is
(39:18):
dying. Anyway, back to trivia.
And we're back. Yeah, I don't think I even got
to the first trivia effect. No, no, dogs that portrayed boy
were two Australian Kelpies named Hero and Dodge.
(39:39):
All right. Yeah.
Just I never would have guessed that was two dogs.
Yeah, no, I thought it was the same dog.
Like that when filming with dogs, only Dylan O'Brien was
allowed to interact with Hero and Dodge.
If Ariana Greenblatt was filmingscenes with the dogs, Dylan
would have to take the day off and not be present on the set.
(40:03):
I would assume they just got really attached.
Yeah, yeah. They only want to be with one
person. The original title of the film
was Monster Problems. Good change.
Yeah. It's a good change.
Yeah, yeah, loving monsters is is way better.
Yeah, although set in California, the film was
(40:26):
actually made in Australia. Oh, those aren't CGI monsters.
It's just. Australia.
Australia, yeah. As we talked about before, this
was originally meant for a cinema release until the
COVID-19 pandemic intervened. Netflix snapped it up and got a
streaming hit. Let's see here.
(40:53):
Brian Duffield wrote the script on spec describing it as a post
apocalyptic Rd. Movie fusing Mad Max and
Zombieland with John Hughes lovestory.
Yeah, that's pretty spot on. Solid description.
Yeah, yeah, that is it for the trivia.
(41:13):
It's not much but I looked through and grab some one star
reviews. Oh, that's right.
Yeah, Yeah. I think I'm I think I'm going to
turn this into like a real continuing thing because I love
some of this shit. All right, this review was
(41:34):
titled Which are the monsters? An annoying lead character
shares a bunker with a load of unlikable people.
I couldn't wait for the so-called monsters to eat a lot
of them. The worst main character ever.
I've never seen a worst main character in a film before.
I was hoping he would get rippedinto 1000 pieces the entire
(41:57):
film. Michael Rooker and the dog
should have been the main characters, you know.
What? I can't argue with that.
Like, I mean, he does get betteras the movie progresses, you
know, as again as he grows. Yeah.
But yeah, he is, like you said, insufferable in the beginning of
this movie. But he's kind of supposed to be
like, they did make him too weak, too much of A like a
(42:20):
fucking annoying character. He also has to be, like, capable
enough to have gotten Jessica Henwick before the apocalypse,
like, yeah, yeah. Like, you know, so at least give
him a little bit of something like, yeah.
Let's see, this was a stupid, silly and meaningless post
apocalyptic movie. That's the title.
(42:41):
If you got 1 1/2 hours to waste on a stupid silly movie, then
this is your movie. Netflix.
I'm sure you can do better than this.
I'm not. I've seen some Netflix shit.
There's some. Shit on Netflix.
Rash. Ken, this is a solid fucking
movie. You know what?
(43:02):
This is better than Saltburn. Yeah.
Did you recently watch that piece of shit?
No. Not recently.
Yeah, but it's bad. Yeah, I do love that.
We have a button for that. We do.
Hey can I get the salt burn button?
What the Hell's the salt? Bathtub.
Yeah. Have you never seen somebody
drink come out of a bathtub before?
I'm like, what? I.
(43:22):
Haven't seen salt burn but now Ineed to watch salt.
Burn. Oh, they released the like the
soundtrack on vinyl with a Milkyliquid inside of it.
Like a watery Milky liquid. Like like the bottom of a
bathtub that somebody jerked offin.
(43:43):
OK. Yeah, it's gonna be the last one
star review for this movie. Ultra Beta this.
This is this is filmed by a dudein a backwards white hat in the
front of his car with like mirrored sunglasses.
Like, fuck yeah, yeah, yeah. Just going beta male.
(44:05):
This dude is your typical beta male second fiddle type of guy.
He's weak and his girlfriend plays games with him.
She's she uses this guy. Can't even fucking type, OK?
She used him as an emotional support while she's banging Chad
Thundercock. Don't believe me?
(44:28):
Don't believe me? What?
This movie? What this movie threw a red pill
lens and thank me later. I'm good, I'm good.
I think he's supposed to say watch this movie through a red
red pill lens. Oh man, yeah.
Chad Thundercock, though, it's agood one.
(44:53):
Largest condoms you can get without a prescription.
Did you have to bounce somebody?I didn't bounce somebody.
There was like a frame on the ohwe.
Just did something weird becauseI was doing.
All right, Sorry, I got distracted.
Yeah. Chad Thundercock, It's jab with
Thunder. Penis is like.
(45:14):
A penis? Yeah.
His little brother. That's it.
That's all I got. All right.
We will move on to the better known as I Know You I.
Knew. I knew.
You. I knew, I knew.
Not exactly much to talk about in the better known as like not,
(45:38):
you know, as far as we usually have more than we do here.
Some of these we're going to breeze over like director
Michael Matthews, because he really hasn't done much.
I think he's done. He wore a cool coat and hat
combo. In that picture, yeah, he's
dressed like Van Helsing in his IMDb picture.
(45:58):
He directed 4 episodes of ATV show called Nautilus last year
and that's the first thing he's done since this movie.
And then before that a short. And then one film 5 Fingers were
for Marsai 2/20/17 and then two more shorts.
(46:20):
So really like. Producer more than anything, or.
No, same amount, probably the same movies.
Oh yeah, almost. So I mean, for for like a a
novice director, it's fucking solid effort.
Yeah, yeah. That's Fung for the fucking
fences. Yeah, I fucking hit a Homer as
(46:41):
far as I'm concerned. Come on, Homer, you can hit a
Homer. Up next we have Dylan O'Brien,
who was the annoying at first lead.
This dude's been in some shit, man.
He's been in a lot of stuff recently.
He played Dan Aykroyd in Saturday Night.
(47:02):
Oh shit. Which is a really, really good
movie. I only got A-69 on here, which
is the same thing that this movie has.
I would go, I would go aid on that.
Yeah, yeah. Also like this movie.
What? I'm going to go close that door.
Yeah, Alexa's just cutting loose.
All right. Welcome to our AI hellscape.
(47:26):
Right, this is the future. Yeah, Alexa's just going off.
Sadly, he was reading the book. Yeah, she's still going.
All right. I think she stopped.
He he played himself in an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm
(47:52):
a couple of years ago. Oh, damn.
That was 2021. He was in the Amazing Stories
reboot in 2020. He was the voice of Bumblebee in
The Bumblebee movie. In 2018, he was Styles in Teen
Wolf, the TV show. Did not watch a single bit of
that. Same here.
(48:13):
That ran for fucking six years and at least 92 episodes.
Yeah, and it's going to 77. I don't know how you make a like
a teen drama out of a comedy. I well, I'm pretty sure it is
nothing like. Like just the story is the same.
(48:35):
Like you know the setup. Like anthropy is an allegory for
puberty. He's in the Deepwater Horizon
movie in 2016. He was in those Maze Runner
movies, those like Hunger Games knock off.
Oh yeah. Shows up an episode of The New
(48:58):
Girl. That's really it.
That's really it. We're going to move on from
there. Jessica Henwick, who was Amy in
this movie? She's been in a ton of shit,
too. She was in Cuckoo, which was not
(49:23):
great. Yeah.
It's got A57 on IMDb. Yeah, yeah.
She was also in Glass Onion, on the other hand.
That was a really good movie. I like that.
I I don't know where to find that one.
Netflix, The Original one. Glass Onion.
Yeah, oh, wait, Glass Onion. The first one was Knives Out,
(49:45):
right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think they're both on Netflix.I.
Don't think Knives Out is. No, I don't.
It's got to be because the next one is coming out on Netflix
too. If not, check out Knives Out.
It's really good. He's.
Prime. Oh, all right, yeah, all, all
really good movies. And fucking Daniel Craig is
(50:07):
awesome in both of them. Really looking forward to the
next one, although he's like allpissed off because it's coming
out on Netflix. Why?
He's getting paid the fucking same.
Yeah, yeah. She has done a bunch of Star
Wars stuff. She was in.
She's at least two of the sequelsaga movies.
(50:29):
She's an X Wing pilot, chest tester.
She was in the Blade Runner animated series that was out a
couple years ago. She was in The Matrix
Resurrections. She probably was most well known
as Colleen Wing on the Iron FistTV series on Netflix.
(50:51):
Would have been a lot better if they gotten anybody else to play
Iron Fist than fucking the dude they got to play him.
I I didn't watch it. It was evidently clear that the
dude did not learn how to fight.Oh, really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, there were just
obvious, like cutaways to like stunt double s fighting.
(51:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. She also shows up in the Luke
Cage TV series, I think The Defenders as well.
Yeah, yeah. 6 episodes. She's also was on Game of
Thrones for eight episodes. She's one of the sand like
daughters, memorious sand. Sand Snakes.
(51:32):
Sand Snakes, Yeah, Yeah, other than that I mentioned Star Wars.
That might be it for notable shit.
Yeah, moving on, Michael Rooker,who?
We've talked about. Yes.
(51:53):
Slither. Slither.
That's right. Yep, fucking Michael Rooker's
awesome. We talked about him, he was in
some other movie we just fuckingwatched too, wasn't he?
Shit, there's a voice on Creature Commandos, which again
I will re endorse because it wasfucking awesome.
He's in American Saga, the firstpart anyway, the Kevin Costner
(52:18):
Western. Yeah, yeah, I, I didn't watch
it. I didn't watch it.
I feel like it's not getting a Part 2 and 3.
It is getting at least a Part 2.The rest of them probably not so
much. Yeah, I think 2 might be out
already. So I know he, like Kevin
Costner, was like putting up a lot of his own money for them.
(52:38):
Yeah, I think 2 might have even gone like straight to streaming.
He shows up in Fast X, an uncredited role.
He's probably most well known atthis point as either Yondu from
Guardians of the Galaxy or Merlefrom The Walking Dead.
Yeah, I mean, for weirdos like me, it's Henry Portrait of a
(53:02):
serial killer. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he does show
up, albeit very briefly, in James Gunn's The Suicide Squad,
which I will also fucking re endorse because that movie's
fucking awesome. We talked about it before, we're
going to move on. He was also in Bright Burn, and
I'll mention that that's a pretty good movie.
(53:24):
Like what if Superman like turned evil as a kid?
Yeah. Ariana Greenblatt played Minnow
in this movie. Michael Rooker's ward, we'll say
'cause he makes it known that you know, she's not his
daughter. She's in a ton of shit too.
She was in that Secret Level show on Amazon last year.
(53:46):
She was Tiny Tina in the terrible Borderlands movie last
year. Also, she was young Ahsoka and
Ahsoka. She shows up in the Barbie
movie, shows up in 65 with Adam Driver.
That wasn't a horrible movie. I kind of liked that movie.
Yeah, she's young. Velma and Scoob.
(54:12):
That was another pandemic movie.2020 it was.
OK, I'm a like, I'm a huge scooby-doo fan.
Like it's, it's not a secret. I'm a huge fucking scooby-doo
fan. I have a scooby-doo lunch box
that I bring to work everyday. Like and Scoob was all right.
(54:32):
Yeah, she played young Gomorrah and Avenger, Avengers Infinity
War. We're going to move on from
there. Ellen Hallman was in this movie.
She is one of like caps thugs. She shows up and some stuff here
(54:54):
and there. She was also in the no, I'm
sorry, you know, same movie matrix resurrections.
I keep they so similarly named. It's easy to mix them up.
The reason I saved her. There was a like a a Gambit fan
movie a while ago that somebody made.
She played Rogue in it and it was actually pretty fucking
(55:16):
good. Oh really?
Yeah, Yeah. It was like a short and I think
they like remade it for TV at some point too.
God damn. Yeah, it was, it's it was she
was, she was Rogue in that. Anything else?
She was a Lethal Weapon TV guys.No, thank you.
Three episodes of Into the Badlands.
The Scorpion King 4. No, yeah.
(55:40):
Is there anything worse than straight to video?
Because I'm pretty sure that's where that like, premiered.
Worse than straight to video, straight to VHS, straight to the
one showing at the fucking back of the ice.
Cream Parlor. She was in 14 episodes of
(56:04):
Spartacus in the early twenty 10s.
I heard it was good, I just never got into it.
Yeah, it wasn't for me. Other than that, that might.
Be old numbers, weeds, all that you're fucking yeah that's.
The other thing I was going to mention, this is disgusting.
(56:26):
Just shows up in Roadhouse too. I'm going to be ill.
Yeah, how does that have a 4.3 I?
Don't fucking know. That no.
No, I don't want it. It doesn't exist.
There's only one Roadhouse and it's perfect.
It is the perfect fucking movie.Yeah, 10 out of 10.
(56:46):
And it's a little of Conor McGregor.
No, I'm joking. I'm joking.
I'm joking. Make me flip this fucking table,
Roadhouse house. Roadhouse.
Deal. Melanie Zanetti was in this
(57:06):
movie as Kayla. I think she's one of oh she's
the voice of Mavis. Also I think she's one of the
like vault dwellers with what's his name.
Oh, she's the voice of Mavis. Yeah, but she's also this Kayla
person too, which I think is thethe, I think she's the the, like
the partner of the dude who getskilled in the beginning.
(57:28):
I think you're right. Yeah.
Yeah, Monique. She's also the mom on Bluey.
Yeah, that's the reason I saved her.
She's the mom on Bluey. 127 episodes of the TV series Bluey.
Multiple movies as the Bluey's mom.
It's chilly. Yeah, and she's also apparently
this is the thing a Ren and Stimpy show reboot.
(57:50):
I don't, I don't want that. They did.
They've done that before and. It keeps getting the the spike
one was way out there. Yeah, yeah.
That was, that was the show thatlike that's what people
remembered Ren and Stimpy being,but it fucking wasn't.
Yeah, I know. They were like a full on like
gay couple in it. It was like, weird.
There was all kinds of boobs. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
(58:12):
Like it was just, yeah, the Nickelodeon series was
perfection. I haven't watched those in a
long time. I should probably rewatch those.
Yeah. But yeah, the reason I saved her
was Bluey. Solid reason.
She was up in 2 episodes of Young Rock.
(58:34):
The fuck you know, please tell me that only lasted a season.
I think so, maybe 2 at the most.Good.
Man, the public really turned onthe rock real quick.
Didn't they? He was like, always one of those
guys, Like, yeah, he was like, he was carrying movies at one
point, like. He still does.
(58:54):
Not so much anymore. Yeah.
In the last up we have Bruce Spence who I didn't even realize
there was old Pete in this movie.
He is in the 1st 2 Mad Max movies.
I'm sorry the 2nd 2 Mad Max movies he's in the Road Warrior
and and Beyond Thunderdome. Yeah.
Oh yeah, yeah, the gyro captain.The gyro captain, Yeah, he is in
(59:16):
a ton of shit too. He was in that show Nautilus
that the director also directed.Aside from that, he was in the
Children of the Corn remake in 2020.
Yeah, I haven't seen the remake and I haven't seen the original
since the 80s. He's in Pirates of the
Caribbean, Dead Men Tell No Tales in 2017.
(59:40):
He's in that crazy ass movie Gods of Egypt in 2016.
It's. So bad.
Yeah, it's so bad. He's in I, Frankenstein in 2014,
which imagines if like what if Frankenstein was like a
superhero? It's not.
Good. Was that the one with?
(01:00:00):
Aaron Eckhart. Aaron Eckhart, Yeah.
Gross. Yeah, he was in.
I think it's the second Chronicles of Narnia movie, The
Voyage of the Dawn Treader. I think that's correct.
The second one was the Prince Caspian.
(01:00:22):
That's the third one. The third one was Voyage of the
Dawn Trotter. Yeah, it has been decades since
I read those books. Yeah.
He shows up in Star Wars Episode3 Tian Midon, the beloved
character of Tian Midon who we all remember.
Yes, he shows up in a couple of the Lord of the Rings movies
(01:00:44):
too. Mouth of Sauron in Return of the
King, the Extended Edition and Black Lieutenant in the In
Return of the King. It's, I think it's the same
character, but in the extended edition you actually hear him
talk and he's got like he's got like actual scenes.
OK, OK, yeah, He shows up in TheMatrix Revolutions and in the
(01:01:06):
Matrix video game also as the Train man Inspector Gadget 2
Queen of the Damned in 2002, which I think is going to be
part of what the next season of Interview with the Vampire is
going to be. Oh, really?
Yeah, based on oh, they're. Going to go with like multiple
books in that huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
(01:01:30):
I don't want to give spoilers for the show, but it looks like
it's going that way. Interesting.
He was in the Patrick Stewart version of Moby Dick in 1998.
He was also in Dark City, which was reviewed on the
Defenestration Hour. I'm sorry, regrettable reviews.
Yeah. Yeah.
(01:01:51):
So getting my shows mixed up. I like that movie a lot.
I haven't seen it since it was in the theater.
It. Was pretty good.
He's in the Munster's Scary Little Christmas 1996.
He is in Ace Ventura when naturecalls.
He's one of the like the the thehunters that kidnaps the fucking
(01:02:12):
white bat. We're.
Going to move on because we mentioned his biggest roles
already. Yeah, moving on.
Oh, no, we're not moving on because that's the last one.
Hey, crapshoot, onto the crapshoot.
That really dug the scene with the robot too.
(01:02:33):
It's. Just like heartwarming.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, sky jellies.
They're harmless. Oh, by the way, here's some
pictures of your parents. Yeah.
Yeah. This was a good movie, dammit.
(01:02:54):
There's, yeah, there's like, there's like notes of fallout in
it. Yeah, like nothing like it's,
there's nothing like ham fisted as like a this is what we're
referencing. It's just little nods to things.
Yeah, I like it. They announced finally the next
Universal Monsters comic. It is going to be The Mummy.
(01:03:17):
Oh, sick. Yeah, yeah, I can't wait to read
that. Nice.
I am hyped. They say who the team is on it.
Yes, and I don't remember. Anybody you've heard of before?
Not ringing any bells if I remember correctly.
Yeah, but whatever, I'm still going to read it.
I've been digging all those. Definitely watched some movies
(01:03:41):
this week. Go ahead, hit me with them.
I watched Nickel Boys, one of the ones that's, you know,
nominated for best Picture, didn't win.
A Nora won, which I said weeks ago should be the one that
should win. It was really good.
Which one was? That the one about the stripper
(01:04:02):
who like, falls in love with their Russian oligarch?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that was really fucking
good. It was impossible to go to the
movies this weekend because there was just garbage out.
It was like nothing even like I kind of want the brutalist was
out but I didn't have, you know,8 days to fucking kill.
(01:04:23):
Yeah. It was a showing on Saturday
afternoon, which I think is justwrapping up.
Now it's it's on streaming now so like I.
Don't want to pay $20 yet. I'm not.
I'm going to see it. Yeah, I just.
I don't want to pay $20.00 for it is.
That what it was. Yeah.
Fucking gross. Let's see, what did I do?
What did I do? I watched a bunch of Young
(01:04:45):
Sheldon because my son is reallyinto it and so he had some
control over the TV this weekend, which is fair, you
know, just watch what he wants to watch.
I fucking like it so much betterthan Big Bang Theory.
Oh yeah, yeah, it's like. It's Wonder Years, but with that
(01:05:08):
Sheldon character. So it's like way, way more
charming. You know, it's got that like
that Roseanne quality, you know,like the, you know, whereas Big
Bang Theory is friends. Yeah, nerd face.
And Friends sucks and it's nerd blackface and I hate it.
(01:05:30):
Yeah, no, like it's a, it's a, it's an enchanting show.
Like we were watching it and I was like, I was laughing at the
jokes. I was invested in the
characters. Like it's fucking good.
I I started a new show this weektoo which I'm really digging.
I started watching Detroiters with Tim Robinson and Sam.
(01:05:50):
Hutchinson. I recommend it.
It's fucking. There's this one scene and I,
I've been laughing about this all week, fucking in the first
episode, there's like this bar that they go to in like every
episode and they like they sit down at the bar like, yeah, you
know, we'll have two beers and the bartender's like, you want
them hot or cold? And they're like, what are you
talking about? Of course we want them cold.
(01:06:12):
Like, we want some hot and they look down at the end of the bar,
there's an old guy with a mug ofbeer and he's just like blowing
steam off the top of it, just fucking laughing about that all
week. That's so dumb.
(01:06:33):
Oh God, look, I'm in. I am in.
Yeah, like I didn't fucking. I don't think I watched too many
movies this week somehow. No, I didn't either.
I don't Matlock. I'm caught up on Matlock.
(01:06:58):
I would love for them to just get to the fucking just do it
for Christ's sake, like. It's got to be wrapping up soon.
That was episode 10, right? More than that, I think.
But either way, like I like I'm liking the show.
(01:07:19):
Like, OK, they're drawing me more in with the like the spy
background kind of shit, but like, shit or get off the pot.
Yeah, yeah. Like every week is just like the
same and I am so much more entertained and invested by the
court shenanigans and the investigation stuff than I am
(01:07:42):
with the the subterfuge plot point.
Like it's it's getting shitty like.
I'm into it still. I still dig it.
Like it's like half the show wasreally fun and entertaining, the
other half is like exhausting. So I feel like this week's
episode like, pulled me back in actually, you know, last week,
(01:08:02):
the Easter episode, yeah, where like they get into the fight at
the end. Like he, you know, he says he
blames her for the kids death. That was last week.
Yeah, yeah. Like that one, Like.
All right, Yeah. Like.
And this and. Like, cool.
This week got me in a little bitmore.
I was a little bit more engaged.Yeah, 'cause usually I've just
had them on in the background the past couple weeks.
Yeah, yeah. With the the sorority house,
(01:08:25):
yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Let's see, what else did I do? Not much.
Yeah, I'm like I'm why is the last week a blur?
If you want spy shenanigans thatnever gets anywhere, watch Burn
Notice. It's a weekly dose of Bruce
(01:08:46):
Campbell. That is 100% correct.
I I also compared. It's like a MacGyver reboot,
spiritually, but better than theactual reboot.
Les MacGyver more like. That's literally the voice overs
while he builds things just likeMacGyver.
(01:09:08):
Yeah, yeah. But yeah, I mean, I, I love Burn
Notice. Until I was burned out of Burn
Notice. You know that like seven season
slump, even a good show can't really go too much longer.
Yeah, stay good. Yeah, that's why.
That's why all the Trek stuff cuts off in seven seasons.
(01:09:37):
Did I do anything? Did I do anything?
Yeah, I'm like trying to look atlegit what the fuck did I do
this week? I, I I don't remember.
Yeah, I. Got a bone to pick with you?
Chris. Oh, about what?
You fucking recommended creaturecommando?
You didn't like creature commandos I.
Fucking. Love.
Oh, I. Think he's saying you ruined his
life. Oh, there's only one season.
There's only 7 fucking episodes dude.
(01:09:59):
The GI robot episode is like incredible fucking Well in the
weasel episode is actually. Sad, yeah.
We were both a little touched bythat episode.
Oh, do you know who's writing the Creature Commandos comic,
Des Malchin? No shit.
Yeah, he started writing it a little before the cartoon came
(01:10:20):
out. I'm going to have.
I almost grabbed it this week. I didn't even realize he was
writing it. Yeah, fuck.
I'm going to have to go back. I picked up the next volume of a
of bitter root, but I want to goback to this creature Commandos.
And like, as soon as that seasonended, I was so sad too, that
like. Fucking.
Angry I have to wait for more ofit's so fucking good.
(01:10:41):
I immediately want to look up like when does the next season
drop? It's not going to be a couple of
years, yeah. Yeah, I didn't realize that that
wasn't like a comic like on its own.
No, it was just, it was just a toy line.
Features. And I think those were.
Good they were in comics. Were they really?
Yeah, but they weren't like, they weren't like a team with a
(01:11:04):
comic. They were just like in some
stuff. I think it was an animated show
back in the day too, maybe. But like I I cannot praise this
new one enough. It is so fucking good.
Like the GI robot episode is just like, Oh my fucking God.
Like, yeah. I do like the setup where you
(01:11:25):
get like the intro episode and then the next 6 episodes are the
origin stories for each of the characters.
Because that's literally what I said to my wife while we were
watching the first episode is I want like an origin of all of
these. Oh, that's what the show is.
And and like each one is like heartbreaking in its own way.
And just like they're all just like, I cannot praise the show
(01:11:49):
enough. It is so good.
The soundtrack is amazing. It's.
Just Gogo or Podello. Yeah, yeah, the the fucking
what's his name? Doctor Phosphorus.
That's another good episode. Like, yeah.
Fucking nerds. Dude, I'm telling you, watch
this fucking. Show.
I think I watched the 1st episode.
(01:12:11):
And didn't immediately want to watch the rest.
I think I watched one episode and then had to go do shit and
then it like stopped existing inmy mind.
Oh God, I like. I have really bad object
permanence. Like it's really, really bad.
(01:12:31):
Yeah, no, I like, I love the character of GI Robot.
He just wants to kill Nazis. And when he finds out you're not
a Nazi, he gets sad. Oh.
I do. Love there is a scene where he
goes general are those Nazis andinstead of correctly telling him
he goes yes, yes those are Nazi.Yay.
(01:12:56):
What a joyous day. Oh God, I like.
I started watching Peacemaker but it was too absurd.
That show is great, too, yeah. I don't know.
(01:13:19):
I got nothing else I don't think.
Yeah, I know I picked up the second volume of Bitter Root,
but I haven't started reading ityet.
The first one was so good. Which one was that?
It's the one I told you about, the family of, like, monster
hunters in Harlem in the 20s. Yeah, Yeah.
Graphic novel or in graphic novel.
OK, did I bring it out here? I don't think I put it in the
library yet, but it'll be in thelibrary shortly for anyone who
(01:13:41):
wants to borrow. Consumption.
Yeah, yeah, that might be it. Like I said, I played a lot of
video games this week. Yeah, yeah, we were talking
before it recorded, but like, I'm not super hyped on Sanctum.
Oh yeah, Snapchat time. Yeah, I I've been playing.
It's like almost exclusively what I've been playing the past
(01:14:03):
couple of days. Yeah, I, like, I was digging it
and then I realized like, I'm just not good at this.
So like, I don't care. No, I like that you have to kind
of guess where the next 4 pointer is going to be.
Like set things up for future. Like and I tried to make a deck
that was like reactive like that.
And so I made a lot of like the the like the Guardians style
deck. Guardians seems to be the best
(01:14:23):
deck for it, yeah. But I kept getting like just
thwarted on everything. No, I didn't.
Even build the decks for this, Ijust sling and throw together my
original decks that I have. Yeah, I only play three of them,
so the rest of them all have. Something.
Yeah, there's a lot of band cards in that format.
Yeah, well, like, like anything that like changes stuff after
(01:14:46):
the game ends, like stuff like that, you know, can't be used.
But yeah, no, I, I, I am, I'm, I'm really digging it.
I, I, I, I, I played Conquest for a little bit because I
really was, I hadn't purchased enough stuff to get the, like
the exclusive card. So I finished that up and got
the the Dazzler card. I'm with you.
(01:15:07):
Because I'm a fucking OCD perfectionist.
Like yeah, I try to get as much.The Dazzler card sucks.
It's the best one that they've made, I think.
No, I mean like Dazzler. Oh, power, power.
Yeah, I know. Art wise, I think it's.
Dazzler. Dazzler in Snap, much like the
character in the comics, sucks. Yeah, yeah.
(01:15:28):
Bingo, Yeah. I really wish the Punisher was a
way better card than it is. He really should be, yeah.
Shitty. It's just like a.
It's a. It's a.
It's Wolf's Bane, but just on the opposite side.
Yeah, but it's like one of the first cars you get, so it like
it can't be. Crazy, but that's a bummer.
(01:15:51):
Yeah. All right, now will for reals
wrap this up? Yeah, we will be at Retro
Adirondack, Retro Nerdfest, April 5th, April 5th, April 5th.
(01:16:12):
Yeah, I don't know, Pretty sure I should add that to the chat
notes. Shit.

for the next guest announcement and it was a cowboy silhouette
(01:17:17):
in the sunrise so I have no ideawhat the fuck that's about.
It was Instagram post. It's going to be a like.
Probably a voice. Voice actor.

Yeah, they've been making the tours lately.
Oh, hi. They.
Yeah. We we did a con with Eric.
(01:17:41):
Roberts Yeah, we I worked with Eric Roberts.
He is fucking awesome. Yeah, he was so nice.
He was, Yeah. We talked about this the other
night actually, because one of his movies came up and yeah, no,
I easily top three panelists I've ever worked with.
Yeah, he was the highest fuck. I, I think he's just like that
Tom made the argument. I like, I think he persuaded me
(01:18:03):
like, you know, he just seems tobe like just kind of like
naturally just kind of like, hey, easygoing and goofy, like.
That easygoing and goofy, but like, he was just like, yeah,
man. Like.
You know what I mean? Like he had a, he had a gummy,
you know? What?
I mean, yeah, no. One of the highlights of my
(01:18:25):
panel career was Eric Roberts slapping me on the leg when I
said Dark Knight was one of my favorite movies of all time.
Like fuck. Yes, I love best of the best.
Did they really take your thumbs?
