From Console to Cinema: Video Games Ready for Their Hollywood Moment

What happens when beloved video games make the leap from console to cinema? Four gaming-enthusiast brothers dive deep into this creative crossroads, exploring untapped virtual worlds ripe for Hollywood adaptation—with one crucial rule: the games cannot have hit the silver screen yet.

The conversation weaves through several compelling candidates that deserve the movie treatment. Devil May Cry emerges as a natural fit for an action-packed adaptation, with the brothers debating which actors could capture Dante's distinctive blend of supernatural combat prowess and charismatic personality. Luigi's Mansion receives passionate advocacy as the perfect follow-up to the successful Super Mario Bros. Movie, potentially delivering a family-friendly ghost-hunting adventure with the perfect blend of humor and light scares.

Horror game enthusiasts will appreciate the detailed discussion of The Dark Pictures Anthology's cinematic potential. These narrative-driven experiences, already structured like interactive films, could translate beautifully to an anthology horror series while maintaining their character-focused storytelling. The conversation takes a surprising turn when Portal receives unanimous support, with the brothers highlighting how its innovative concepts, confined setting, and memorable antagonist GLaDOS could create something truly unique in the film landscape.

Throughout their debate, the brothers don't shy away from criticizing past video game adaptations, particularly lamenting how the Resident Evil films departed from the games' compelling storylines and atmospheric horror. Their passionate exchanges reveal a deeper truth about successful adaptations: they must honor what fans love about the original while crafting something that stands on its own cinematic merits.

Whether you're a dedicated gamer, film enthusiast, or simply enjoy listening to siblings playfully argue their positions, this episode offers thought-provoking perspectives on storytelling across different media. Which game would you most want to see adapted? Join the conversation and share your thoughts in the comments!

He's like five years older than dirt.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
He's an age, for sure .
I hear he was born in what 53?
.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
He might be a good judge.
He's not super old.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I don't think.
Although Judd is a lifetimesmoker, I don't think I see Judd
with a raspy voice no he kindof is one of those.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
I guess you're right.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
But does cigarettes cause cancer?

He got killed with a scalpelhey blood types.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Nicotine, that's right yeah, mortal Blood types,

Yeah, mortal Kombat movies, man, ooh, they were bad.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
They were.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
They were bad, but gosh, I love watching them.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
Yeah, you love them.
The second one is a hard watch.
It is a real hard watch.
Somebody honestly tell me youreally like the second one.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
As soon as Raiden shows up with the short hair in
the Aladdin vest, it's a hardwatch, yeah it is tough.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
The short hair in the Aladdin vest.
He did.
He did no bench presses oranything no, they like.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
This is a fighting movie, if that but that was, god
bless him.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Brian Thompson was having a fun time playing the
Emperor, but oh, your eyes rollso hard.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
The lady that played Sindel you I mean well, so hot,
but no, watch her in moviecalled retracts, sorry.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Adam.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Adam had a stroke.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
She is beautiful she's still pretty I think I
haven't seen her recently.
I thought it was funny that theactress who played Sindel has
to talk about her being hermother.
Mother, you're still alive.
She was in Talisa.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
Soto's like 10 years older than that girl.
Riff Trax does something from.
It's called it's like a spacewestern.
It's a B, like a B or.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
C or D space western.

Speaker 4 (06:46):
I love Riff Trax Like terrible.
Reach out guys, we really likeyou.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
We discussed this a little bit on the last one.
But I'm not huge on sci-fi butI've got to say Firefly is.
Firefly is one of the mostamazing shows ever made.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
If Fox wouldn't have crapped the bed so bad on
Firefly, it would have beenbigger than Star Trek, I think.
I think, it had absolutely.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
I don't think so.
The only thing that was as goodas Star Trek and it was a
shadow Think about the chemistrybetween Tudyk and Fillion.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
I mean the whole-.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
I'm not taking anything away from it.
Oblivion Incredible, but whatit Well, somebody I heard it in
a movie one time.
They were talking about what ifyou could reverse universes and
Buffy suffered the fate ofFirefly and Firefly went on to
be Buffy, oh, all day.
It would have turned into thesame cheesy, silly show that

(07:37):
Buffy did.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
No, it wouldn't have, because Whedon was still Whedon
, doesn't have any kind ofdistance though.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
No distance whatsoever he does.
I agree with that.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
I think the stars would have aligned and fate
would take over to make itamazing.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
But Serenity wasn't good.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
Serenity was a middle finger to Fox.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
I mean, I understand that, but he had a chance and he
killed Wash.

Speaker 4 (07:59):
I know, come on, dude In one of the worst ways
possible.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Terrible, terrible Kill the doctor Kill Simon.
Kill everybody.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
I mean, if we would have known ahead of time Buck
could have been the sacrificialcharacter.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
But Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
I've got to be honest.
I've never watched an episodeof the show.
I was never interested in itwhatsoever, but I absolutely
love that movie?

Speaker 4 (08:25):
Yeah, Paul Reubens, Christy Swanson.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Rutger Hauer.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
Rutger Hauer.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
And I'm not even a fan of the show, but I can look
at it and say the show, for whatit set out to be, was very good
the first couple of years,sarah Michelle.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
Gill was good looking Then it becomes this.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
it's kind of like Supernatural.
Supernatural started out prettydarn good and then it turns
into the silliest, mostridiculous.
Yeah, what else can we do justto push incredulity as much as
humanly possible?

Speaker 1 (08:58):
I like Buffy the Vampire Slayer for the same
reason I like most 80s movies.
Is you kind of get lost in thecampiness?

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Yeah.
And I just think they did sucha good job with the humor in
that Paul Reuben's doing thelong dying scene was hilarious.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Rutger Hauer being the big bad, he was really good
in it, yeah he was good and LukePerry.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
Luke Perry was in it RIP.
He actually is dead.
Evan, Is he dead?

Speaker 1 (09:28):

early 2000s.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
That was late 90s ready to rumble still really
yeah you know speaking of I mean, I don't know, this is crazy
linking the worlds, but do youknow who one of the writers for
wwe is right now?
Who's that?
Freddie prince jr oh wow, yeahhe's been writing for him for
about 10 years now, I think wellsarah michelle giller.
Right, that's the linking webring things together that's

(10:23):
right.
Probably not people related,hey Adam.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
Knock your phone off.
They might be siblings too.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
I hope not.
I hope not.
They're married.
That's a West Virginia thing,yeah, not really.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
We love West Virginia too, Okay.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
It's almost heaven.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
It's true.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
So they're apparently making the Mortal Kombat 2, so
did you all watch the new MortalKombat movie?

Speaker 4 (10:45):
Oh it was terrible.
Did not see it so bad.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
There's a new one.
There weren't enough characters.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
You have to bring in a new character.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
Scorpion was incredible though A really
boring new character.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
Yeah, he was.
I can heart it in my body.
We had Jax we had Jax with themetal arm, that sort of tremor
guy.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
No, he's not like.
Tremor.
He turns just like into brassor something.
He gets this old armor.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Well, it's a really stupid thing.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
So they have like birthmarks the.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
Kevin Bacon movie Birthmarks where they it's like
that means that you're going tobe in the Mortal Kombat and it
looks like the Mortal Kombatlogo instead of it just being I
didn't think Shang Tsung lookedlike he was wearing a wig the
whole time.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
He might have been.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
I thought Terry Tory, kerry, kerry Tagawa did a good
Shang Tsung Me too.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
I think he makes up people sometimes.
That's his name.

Speaker 3 (11:37):
He was the one who was in the real movie.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
They brought him back to being more.
It has begun okay.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
They brought him, yeah he.
That's a good example of campyacting.
That's just like spot onfantastic yeah delicious camping
.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Uh, kano was good in the movie.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
Why hasn't that been made?

Speaker 1 (11:55):
it's so you.
They're trying to give it toomuch of a plot.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
Yeah, you don't have to well they're trying to appeal
to more than what Mortal Kombatfans.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Well, that's the biggest issue.
So our prompt today has to dowith video games.
But that's, I think, one of thebiggest issues with them trying
to adapt to video games or evenStar Wars or anything like that
.
They're trying to adapt thatstuff and they're like we got to
broaden the audience.
While they're broadening theaudience, they're kind of like

(12:28):
alienating the originals and solike they did that with the last
of us and they've done thatwith you know, everybody was
complaining about me being sucha Spider-Man, pierce.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
It's like why didn't the first Spider-Man movie have
Gwen Stacy?
Oh, nobody remembers Gwen Stacy.
Spider-man has Spider Stacey.
Spider-man has been popular for50 years because people
remember that crap.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
And the people that are going to go watch your movie
are the original fans, and thenthey're going to tell other
people.
I've told my wife this beforecoming home from a movie, I'll
say I want you to go back andwatch it with me, because it's
not just a fill-in-the-blankmovie Star Wars, Lord of the
Rings, Superman it is a goodmovie that happens to be about
this character that I care about.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
It is.
It's if you tell a good story,people are going to like it and
we, you know, we're huge videogame people and there are a
couple things like video gamesthat the story's.
Just, I probably still to thisday can't tell you the story of
Street Fighter, and I've playedthat since I was zero years old.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
You didn't get that.
Ryu was just trying to find his.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
If you say Ryu one more time instead of Ryu.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
I'm going to jump across this table.
It's his name guys.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
I'm going to jump across this table and pop you.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
It's actually pronounced D-U-U, I don't care.
Oh, is it?
It's.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Ryu.
I was close to his name.
It's Ryu and Ken, that's.
Do you know?

Speaker 4 (13:41):
are you Ken?
Or whatever, it's really thequestion are you Ken?

Speaker 1 (13:46):
No, it's not Sure, you Ken, that's not true, oh
really.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah, I watched a video of somebody saying that
Hadouken, and sure are you Kenit was the same video where Norm
MacDonald and ChristopherMacDonald, they're telling you
what they're doing.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
I just automatically assume that if somebody online
says it, it's 100% true andflaming something.

Speaker 3 (14:05):
Fist is what he says, hadouken is that.
Ken is fist that's what theyused to call me in high school
is flaming fist.
I watched this lady.
This lady has a YouTube channelon Japanese video games.
What they say is she translatesit and then she does these
really funny videos about it.
And even the TatsumakiSenpukaku when he's kicking it

(14:27):
actually means forceful movementof my feet in a tornado motion
or something like that.

Speaker 4 (14:32):
So they started announcing their moves a long
time ago.
Like I repeated oh what is itin one punch?
Man Left cross, Consecutive,regular punches.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Left cross to bottom jaw.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
They do that with titles too.
We we hear them as tensaki butit's just, they're saying most
like.
I watched this really awfulpolice show over there and it's
called superwoman police.
That's their translation of itin english is superwoman police.
Okay, they sound goofy as heckto us because they put their
words in a different order.
We read everything left or out.
They read everything right toleft, so it's actually police
who is a superwoman to them.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
It's not superwoman.
I followed that.
It's kind of like the red carthing in Spanish, right.
It's car red in Spanish.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
I remember seeing a Spanish version of the magic
school bus when I was a kid andit was like el school bus es
magico Escuela.
Clearly, like el scubus magicoEscuela.
Clearly, I am fluent in Spanish.
You speak as much as I do.
If you couldn't tell.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
We are multilingual on this channel.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
We speak English and Spanish.
We respect the Spanish peopleand their hard work ethic.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
But there are some video games where they already
have a good storyline.
We talked about this one.
I remember when Resident Evilcame out.
That was probably the year2000,.
I think was when that moviecame out.
Underserved game series tomovie and the first one.
Genuinely those are probablythe first games that I paid
attention to the storyline thestoryline was really good.

Speaker 4 (15:55):
And the lore is deep.
Yeah, very, very good.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
And they could have done such a great job with it,
but instead they made the movie,and that could be also part of
the director.

Speaker 4 (16:07):
He is just I love Mila Jovovich.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
He wanted his wife to have a part.
He made.

Speaker 4 (16:14):
Is that Mila Jovovich ?
She's good.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
I like her.
The Paul ABC, efg Anderson,fifth Element man.
She's too old to be any of thecharacters in Resident Evil.
She was back then and she isnow.
He just wanted to make up acharacter.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
I would have believed her as Rebecca.
I don't care how old she was, Iwould have believed her as
Rebecca Now let's be real.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
Those movies would have been good had they been
called anything but ResidentEvil.
If they'd been called ZombieNation.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Zombie Land Killers.
I mean, I didn't hate that.
I still like going back andwatching now.
But the first Resident Evilgame has.
The first two, I think, have areally great storyline.
I think the third one kind ofcrapped the bed for a while,
felt way off, yeah.
But the first two have a reallygreat storyline.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
But the first one could have been done so well
because you could do it asalmost like and you could do it
on a sho budget, yeah go to anice house or go to and you've
got more, you've got an expandedunit.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
Look at sd perry's.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Yes, yeah, absolutely she wrote those were out by the
time the movie came out, so whynot?

Speaker 1 (17:11):
use those as your calvin cove, underworld.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Those are original stories.
Stephanie perry created thosestories.
Those weren't in the universe.
Yeah, she made Caliban Cove andUnderworld.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
But you can't hardly find those books at all anymore.
I know they're all on audiobookon YouTube.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
Are you serious?
All of them.
And they're read by fans whoactually cut in soundtrack.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
We know how I feel about audiobooks.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Audiobooks are the only way that I've ever read
anything before.
Something, johnson Mike.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
Johnson, mike Johnson .
Mike Johnson's web.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
He does.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
Umbrella Chronicles.
I heard Umbrella Chronicles.
He does a part of City of theDead and he did Caliban Cove.
And he did Caliban Cove, he didgreat on Caliban Cove City of
the Dead is my favorite of thebooks.

Speaker 4 (18:01):
actually, resident Evil 2 is my favorite game of
all.
Actually, resident Evil 1 is myfavorite of the games.
Yeah, resident Evil 2.
City of the Dead is my favoritebook by period.
Well, resident Evil 1 andRemake is my favorite the first
three.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
I think Resident Evil 2 is my favorite game of all
time.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
The remake took its place, but I still think, as
concise as the story is.
The first remake was better.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
RAT 2 remake is perfect, it's the best remake of
perfect video game ever, but Imean if gun to my head, favorite
game ever, resident Evil 2, wassuch a departure from anything
else I'd ever seen.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
It was just so good.
You're talking about theoriginal when you talk about.

Speaker 4 (18:34):
Chris and Jill are really really likable main
characters.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
They're amazing, they are.

Speaker 4 (18:38):
Claire and Leon are the two best.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
But they were every man.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
They were the two best.
You know what I think isinteresting about the first
Resident Evil especially and itcould be that I have somewhat of
hero worship when I watch stuffsometimes but Chris and Jill in
the first game are never reallytogether until the end.
But the whole time in my head Iwas like Chris and Jill are a
thing Together.

(19:02):
Yeah, it's almost like they hadchemistry without being
anywhere near each other becausethey're concerned for each
other.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Stephanie Perry goes into that in the book and it
kind of hints it in the game too.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Yeah, because the stuff's on Jill's desk.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
She lays her head on his shoulder.
I mean, if you look atStephanie Perry's books, at the
end of the first one she thinksabout Chris.
That's the first thing shethinks about.
Then when she meets Carlos, shestarts.
When he saves her life, shethinks this would have been good
, but I already have somebody.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
Interesting George Romero was contracted to write a
Resident Evil movie.

Speaker 4 (19:43):
I don't think George remembered Romero as a good
character the Resident Evil gamestarted to suck because they
stopped focusing on the zombies.
No, I like zombies, but Romerois really intent on the zombie
character.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
I don't think he's a good storyteller.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
He doesn't create a great character, it's Romero.
Now I'm talking about when thiswas going to be in 1999, 2000,
2001.
I think they did a treatment ofit.

Speaker 4 (20:12):
There's a documentary about it.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
There's a commercial where Brad Renfro plays it.
There's a documentary about it.
There's a commercial where BradRenfro plays Leon.
It's a Romero-directed trailerfor Resident.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Evil 2.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
And it is.
Is he really dead?

Speaker 2 (20:22):
He's young.
Oh yeah, he died a long timeago.
That's crazy.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
I think he actually Rest in peace, mr Renfro.
He was a great actor.
I mean there's no dialogue init.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
There's no dialogue in it, it just shows zombies
breaking through.
Then you see the zombies breakout.
Then you go to a police station.
Then you see the moment whereLeon and Claire see each other
for the first time.
They're about to shoot eachother.
There's no dialogue, but itlooks so good, it's like coming
trailer such and such.
And then it said yeah, I'vebeen contracted to do this, do a

(20:52):
two-hour movie, three-hourmovie, something like that.
And I was so excited and thenthey just didn't do it.

Speaker 4 (20:56):
It disappeared.
It was going to be shot in.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
Japan, shinji Mikami was going to be part of the
project instead of crapping onhis work.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
It's like Superman Returns with Nicolas Cage,
something that never was, Thankgoodness though Boo, well and
honestly.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
I love Kevin.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Smith as a person, but my goodness is so much as
what I know of Kevin Smith.
Now, I would just assume he'dnever touch an animal.
I am such a huge fan of KevinSmith, I know you're an
apologist I just think he's acool guy.
He destroyed He-Man.
I think everything about him isjust he's destroyed everything
he's ever touched.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
Ridley Scott.
I'm a Ridley Scott apologistand I shouldn't be the man has
done nothing but take asledgehammer to his wife.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Oh, man, I've got a hot take right here.
Are you all ready for this?
I don't like the movieGladiator that much.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
I've seen it.
People like Gladiator, peoplelove that movie.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
I guarantee we'll get comments on the bottom of this
video.
It's so boring.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
The first 20 minutes is good, the acting's fine.
I don't like the movie.
The middle is awful, I don'tlike the movie.

Speaker 3 (22:01):
The first 20 minutes.
I agree, the first 20 minutes.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
I went and made sandwiches and played a game in
the middle of that movie.
It was so boring.
That could be why you didn'tlike it.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
I was about to say that no, no.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
I wasn't anywhere around that movie when it was
playing.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
That's how much I hate it.
I left the house and then Idrove to town.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
The middle of that movie is terrible.
You'd be making a sandwich thewhole time.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
I've tried to watch it four times and all four times
.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
It's been terrible.
It's one of those movies wherethey get it and they're like
okay, we know the history behindit, you know.
What would be fun, though, isif we didn't do anything.
Let's make it where Comicuswould do this and Ridley Scott,
go back to your original works.
You were so good in the 79through 80s.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Well, Ridley Scott did Alien, but James Cameron did
Aliens, and Aliens is a bettermovie than that.

Speaker 4 (22:46):
No, it is not a better movie.
They're very different movies.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Introduced to Space Marines, I agree.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
I think it's better that's like saying Terminator
and Terminator 2 are the samemovie.
Yeah, terminator 2 is better.
I'm not disagreeing with youabout that.
But you don't watch Terminator2 for a horror movie.
Terminator was a horror moviebut Terminator 3 was not.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
Terminator 3 was worse than the first aliens was
not a horror movie.
Everything they've done sincethen, no aliens was.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
No, Aliens was like an action movie.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
Terminator 3 is the worst movie ever to be set in
the future Period.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
That's a tough claim.
Have you ever seen JupiterAscending?
Oh my gosh, that's so funny.
We've never discussed thismovie one time in our lives?
I don't think, but that is theworst movie I don't think I've
ever seen.
It Is that Channing Tatum?
It's got Channing Tatum andMila Kunis and that kid that
sounds like a frog.
That played Stephen Hawking.
Eddie Redmayne.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Eddie Redmayne.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Must be terrible.
Oh man, that's so funny.
Y'all said that at the sametime, Holy crap.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
We have honestly never discussed that movie
before in our life.
If you think that Jeremy Ironsin the Dungeons and Dragons
movie oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
Watch Eddie Redmayne in there.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Eddie Redmay redmane.
And eddie redmayne does anoperatic performance.
You can't you can't outdojeremy.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
I don't know who told him.
It's like hey, eddie, you'redoing a really great job here.
Jeremy, way to go, give me moreof that.
Keep it up, j Jeremy.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Irons didn't choose scenery in that movie, he
gobbled it up.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
But you take that scene, turn it up to 11.
You all have to.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
That might be a movie we sit and watch and critique
the whole time, if we can makeit through it.
It's pretty hard and I likeShannon Tatum, I like Mila Kunis
, I like Eddie Redmayne in mostthings.
Why not make Tim, I'd like?

Speaker 2 (24:34):
to have seen a Gambit movie.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
As good as he did in.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Deadpool and Wolverine.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
I'd like to have seen that Gambit movie they were
doing.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
He was awesome as Gambit.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
He stole the show.
They'll make it now withDeadpool and Wolverine.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
I bet they will.

Speaker 3 (24:50):
I thought they put a pin in it If Ryan Reynolds has
to pay for it himself.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
They put a pin in it years ago.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
I mean, that was something that was like in the
box, yeah, but I mean, I didn'tthink they were getting it out
of the box.

Speaker 3 (24:59):
Speaking of that hot take, Deadpool and Wolverine was
an awful movie.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
I disagree.
I enjoyed it.

Speaker 3 (25:06):
I could shut my mind off.
It wasn't what it was.

Speaker 4 (25:10):
You can't believe what they still haven't put
Gambit in Marvel Rivals.
It's a.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Oh, video game, it's an.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Overwatch type of game.
My kids love it.
But Gambit would be yeah,somebody at my house likes it
too, because they charged a lotof stuff.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
Yeah, playstation Plus charged them like $60 or
something like that.
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
Charged a lot of money to my account.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
I started password protecting.
That no.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
I'm taking the card off.
Everything in the house.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
That's what I'm doing .
I've not played Marvel Arrivals.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Neither have any of us Switching to you wouldn't
know that, looking at my account.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
What I've never played it either.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
He's played the crap out of it.
A bunch of people are playingMarvel Arrivals, switching to
what our prompt is today.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Today we are going to be discussing video games, but
video games as movies.
So we all have video games thatwe enjoy watching, but, I'm
sorry, video game movies weenjoy watching, but we are all
gamers.
I want to discuss video gamesthat have yet to be made into
movies and which ones we thinkwould be really good.

(26:14):
Ooh, okay, okay, okay, wait, dotv shows count I wish they did,
because I would choose the lastof us because I feel like they
could do much better with thelast of us than they thought.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
The first season was really good, the second season's
really terrible.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
There's one of mine down.
No, I've still got plenty.

Speaker 4 (26:30):
Yeah, I've still yeah I want to start because I'm I'm
gonna start from the geekiestangle all right, let's hear it
I'm going full japan and goingdevil may cry, because I think
that would be an easy one great.
Turn your brain off and just bean action movie that'd be a
well.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
That had a lot of comedic parts yeah, dante's
hilarious, you could have itwould be very, very CG.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
Who plays Dante?

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Who plays Dante?

Speaker 4 (26:58):
That's a really good question, I would say Fassbender
.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
but everybody has a bad Live.
Actors.
Oh, it has to be live action.
Fassbender's too old to playDante.

Speaker 4 (27:07):
I'm just saying like he's got no.
So I'm saying like Devil MayCry 5, dante, you have to be a
martial artist too, don't really?

Speaker 2 (27:15):
have to be a martial artist.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
They would need to be , though.
Yeah, they could do what theydid with Keanu Reeves and man of
Tai Chi.
Have you seen that?
No do what they did with.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
Keanu Reeves and John Wick and turn him into a super
soldier.
Have you seen his shootingdrills?
Watch, he's incredible.
It's impressive.

Speaker 3 (27:32):
Watch man watch he's incredible, it's impressive
watch man of Tai Chi.
They use wire work.
I don't want to now and it'sthe worst and Tiger's just just
ruined me.
He's his choreographer and he'samazing.
The fight scene with KeanuReeves it's the most ridiculous
looking fight scene that they'vedone in the modern and I
include Cynthia Rothrock'snewest movie where she's on wire
.

Speaker 4 (27:49):
Have you seen fight with Tai Chi though?

Speaker 1 (27:53):
I'm kind of in the Rogan camp here with, like most
martial arts are really ready tolook at, but they're bullshido
when you actually the StevenSeagal like keto this little
thing he touches his nose andthey run at him and then flip
themselves no I like jigglejitsu or what's it called?

Speaker 4 (28:15):
no, have you seen the no touch knockout the guy that
does when they do it?

Speaker 1 (28:19):
yeah, they, just those are my favorite that's uh
fantastic though dante um oh andwhich game would you follow of
those?

Speaker 4 (28:29):
well, you have to do the first one, first right, I
mean okay, so you couldn't beold a kid, that all of them, the
kid that played Cato in HungerGames and he was in Vikings.
Yeah, he's in great shape andhe's done sword scenes before
for Vikings.
He was Bjorn.
No, yeah, he was Bjorn, andthey're all Bjorn, bjorn.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
He's Ragnar's son.
Yeah, he was.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
Jedediah, ragnar Lothbrok's son, bjorn, that ends
up leading after Ragnar iskilled.
He might be a Skarsgård.
I don't know why I'm thinkingthat is it Alexander.
I don't know that he's in.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
They may not be brothers we're going to have to
make a big.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
I think his last name is Skarsgård.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
We're going to make a big compilation clip of Evan
saying that people are related.
I think, he might be a bald one.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Look up.
What's the name of the movieHunger Games?

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Kato Hunger Games.
Is that spelled with a K or a CK?

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Cast K C.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
No, kato not cast.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
We were publicly educated, was Jack?
All three of us have been tocollege.
Which one?

Speaker 4 (29:45):
Ludwig, it was almost Skarsgård.
I was really close.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Okay, so he was in.
I want to say that he was inLone Survivor.
Yeah, he's the young seal.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
He's a good actor, yeah he's in a movie about
rowing for the olympics.
I could see that one rowing incollege he's yeah, he could be
dante.
That's a good, that's a goodcast.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah, okay um, so I'm be honest, I remember playing
the devil may cry games, butthat was before.
I guess I cared aboutstorylines, but I don't remember
too much about that.
I remember the part at the end.
Of course it's weird.
It's in pop culture.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
It's a weird story.
It's the same plot as Boba Fettis.

Speaker 4 (30:21):
He's a bounty hunter.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
He gets called in to fight demons.
No, he's the son of.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
Sparta.
That's not true.
You, sir, have never played.
God of War?
No, not son of Sparta.
Sparta the demon, he's his son.
Is he a bounty hunter or is henot?
I mean, he kind of is.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
They call him to fight demons.
Do they, or do they not?
Yeah, but there's more storythere than that.

Speaker 4 (30:44):
He falls in love with Trish, she dies at the end of
it.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
He uses his light to bring her back.

Speaker 4 (30:49):
They don't even begin to talk about his derivation
until the second part.
That's not true.
It's not true, sir, and I'mgoing to.

Speaker 1 (30:56):
I don't remember the first one.
I disagree.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Alexander.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Ludwig of the.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Skarsgård Of the Skarsgård family.

Speaker 3 (31:07):
Through intermediaries.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
You've developed a whole other family.
Adam what's?

Speaker 2 (31:12):
yours.
Well, I have a few, but I'mgoing to go with another in the
properties, the last of us, andsay Uncharted, because I like
it's been made a movie thoughit's been made a movie.

Speaker 4 (31:25):
It's been made a movie Tom Holland.
It was almost a movie it wasalmost good.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
Actually, it had everything that it should have,
except casting, to be good.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
I really like Nathan Drake though.
Great, great character.
I think he would be a very goodfrontman in a movie.
Great character.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
Now Evan worships at the altar of Nathan Fillion.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
They made a fan film with him as Drake, but I think
Nathan Fillion could actuallyplay Drake.
Did you see the fan film thatwas made?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Yeah, and they had the guy that played in Tombstone
as.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Ernie Reyes Jr.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
He plays the guy no but also the guy that played in
Tombstone, Stephen Lang, asSully.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
And that was very well cast.
Nathan Fillion deserves to beworshipped at the alternate.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
How did I not know that there's a movie?
It's terrible.

Speaker 4 (32:11):
Don't watch it Right here.
Right here's the movie.

Speaker 3 (32:13):
It's as accurate and good as the Assassin's Creed
movie with Michael Fassbenderwas.

Speaker 4 (32:17):
So this is supposed to be silly.
Yeah, Mark Wahlberg is silly.
Well good.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Tom Holland would be a good.
Here's the story of this movie.
From what I've, he's PeterParker in it.
He can't.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
He has.
No, okay, I'll tell good indevil, devil all the time he is.

Speaker 1 (32:32):
That was one of the worst movies I've ever seen
devil all the time great acting.
Oh, tell me the plot of thatmovie real quick that's exactly
right.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
You have nothing.
You have nothing devil, notjust some of the times.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
This is why I don't watch movies anymore.
Is they disappointed?
So?

Speaker 1 (32:47):
the this the reason mark walberg is sully is because
mark walberg was contractedoriginally to be Nathan Drake.
Now this is 2012 or around thattime In younger days.
That would have been good so bythe time they got around to
making this movie they still hadhim contracted and they talked

(33:09):
to him, and so they decided tobring him in as Sully.
Now, I don't think this wouldhave been terrible if they would
have made it to where NathanDrake was getting established,
which they kind of did but theyshould have made him younger,
and I'm okay with even MarkWahlberg Mark Wahlberg's in his
50s, I mean, sully wouldprobably be in his 50s.

Speaker 4 (33:29):
They needed to probably give him a little bit
of gray in his hair.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
The mustache Can't go without the mustache.
You think Mark Wahlberg wouldhave been a good Nathan Drake?

Speaker 4 (33:38):
He would have when he was younger.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
I don't think he has the charm.
Did you watch Max Payne?

Speaker 3 (33:42):
Physically well.
That's why you think that hecould play a video game.
Did you watch Four?

Speaker 2 (33:45):
Brothers.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
But that's not Nathan Drake, I'm just saying he can
act well.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
Acting's not the issue.

Speaker 3 (33:53):
Did you see the Happening?
Though, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
I'll raise any you can throw bad movies at anybody
but, I'm sure Michael Keaton'sone of my favorite actors in the
world but he's got some reallybad in his background, even
though he's great.
I can't think of any, but heprobably does.
Who's that?
Michael Keaton, michaelKeaton's so good.

Speaker 4 (34:16):
There's the one where he's the McDonald's founder.
He's great in it, but it's nota great movie.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
I liked the movie.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
I don't know how accurate it was, but I thought
it was a good movie, mcdonald'sBrothers.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
One of them comes in and says it'll never be yours
and then he goes.
You heck, I can just put $2million in your pocket, but
acting like one or two moviesmakes somebody a bad actor.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
That's wrong, no, mark.

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Wahlberg is a bad actor.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
Look at Playing by Heart.
That has an all-star cast.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
And every one of that .
People in that have good movies, but that's back when they were
trying to do that thing inmovies where they wanted to have
500 storylines that linkedtogether.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
You've seen a couple of bad movies, to say somebody's
bad.

Speaker 3 (34:58):
Paul Thomas Anderson is where all that started.
Yeah, I blame him for that.
Until he stops making movies.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
I'm not saying that Mark Wahlberg would have been
the best Nathan Drake.
I'm saying that that's who heoriginally was.
I think physically he isPhysically he is perfect for it.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
I think he's around the same age as Nathan Fillion,
and I believe that NathanFillion should have been the
natural.

Speaker 4 (35:19):
But Nathan Fillion would have been perfect.
Can't do the combat scenes.
Nathan Fillion would have ahard time with the fist fight
scenes.
It's not even the fist fight.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
You have to almost do the parkour type stuff because
of how.
Nathan Drake climbs.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
He's good at that kind of thing.
He's good at fishing.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
They could do such a great job with an uncharted.
Very good at fishing, becausethey could make it very much
like a modern day Indiana Jones.
I didn't know, there was amovie though, so I'm changing.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
It's really bad.
Okay, we'll come back to you.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
It would even be fine as a movie where they're
handing the reins off.
I would be okay with that ifNathan Drake was the Sully
character.
You just don't make anUncharted movie Call it
something else.
Yeah, make it a Passing of theTornado movie.

Speaker 4 (36:01):
That's my feeling about the Dark Knight.
I think it should have beencalled Crazy Clown Guy.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
They're doing an Indiana Jones reboot with Pedro
Pascal.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
I don't like any of it.
What is wrong with everybody?

Speaker 2 (36:09):
right now.
Yes, Batman movies.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
What's your switch to ?

Speaker 1 (36:13):
He doesn't have one, Andrew.
What do you got?
He's a.

Speaker 4 (36:15):
Batman movie?

Speaker 2 (36:16):
What Christian Bale's Batman movies?
Oh, he's okay, he was terrible.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
Oh, he was a bad Batman.
Very good.
Well, physically he was a goodBatman.
Just how he sounded was bad andHeath.

Speaker 3 (36:24):
Ledger was just a crazy clown guy.
I was awesome.
In that I just agree with youall.
He would have been better asTwo-Face than he was, I think he
did extremely well.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
That is a.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Joker that you could believe would beat Robin to
death with a crowbar.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
Green Goblin was a Joker that you could believe in
any circumstance.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
You can't say that because Willem Dafoe is the
Joker.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
He was born to be that?

Speaker 1 (36:53):
What's your game?

Speaker 3 (36:53):
Andrewrew to be a movie I had I really had one and
it was a really good one, andit's been asked for a billion
times.
And then it just jumped out ofmy head fighting force that
would be a fun one, honestly, ifyou put the right people
together to get tony john nowsee I three other people who can
do what they're doing.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
I would.
I would agree with that in thesense that I love the Street
Fighter movie and I love the oldMortal Kombat movies.
I do too.
They're so bad but so much funMortal.

Speaker 3 (37:19):
Kombat Legacy was really good.
Mortal.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
Kombat Legacy was good, though just because it was
good.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
I was never seeing it .

Speaker 4 (37:26):
Yes, I gave it back, your Mortal, your Mortal Kombat
legacy.
No, you never did, for sure,I've never seen that third movie
and this is why we have thispodcast you bought it for me for
my birthday then I might haveit at my house and he borrowed
it from me.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
The day I got it I was like okay this is the whole
reason we put this podcasttogether to get Adam's movie
back now mine is.

Speaker 3 (37:45):
Mine is again.
It's been.
It's been requested time aftertime after time.
Now I don't have any faith ontheir ability to do it, but I
would love to see Shadows of theEmpire made into a movie.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
It was one of the funnest Star Wars games.

Speaker 4 (37:58):
The only problem about it if?

Speaker 3 (37:59):
you have that Star Wars property with it, Andor has
been the only good thing StarWars.
I love you, dave Filoni, I loveyou, do you?

Speaker 4 (38:08):
Because I feel like he was the start of the downfall
.
Do you, do you?
Dave Filoni is as bad as.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
Kathleen Kennedy.
They should all be fired.
I would never say that out loud.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
I did love Rebels.
Rebels was great.
I mean Goddard, john Fawcett,john Fawcett.
I love Fawcett Goddard.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
Even him.
I love y'all to death.
The movies and series y'all aremaking are silly, so bad series
you're making are silly.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
They're not Star Wars silly.
It's not for the Star Warsaudience.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Is that Dave?

Speaker 4 (38:32):
Filoni doing that.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
I know it was.

Speaker 3 (38:34):
Really, he's obsessed with Ahsoka.

Speaker 4 (38:36):
She's not a fun character.
I like Ahsoka though she was.
I loved her in Legendary Snipswas fun when she was playing off
of.

Speaker 3 (38:42):
Anakin.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
What was that you said?

Speaker 4 (38:48):
She's now in the.
Anything about Snips is whatAnakin calls her in the Clone
Wars.
If they want to, make another.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
Ahsoka show when she's a teenager.
That'll be great.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
I don't hate them.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
They need to get rid of the Ahsoka show they have.
They have murdered.

Speaker 4 (38:59):
Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Dave Filoni's, one of the ones that's killed.

Speaker 4 (39:04):
Star Wars I know, I know, and all they had to do was
do the Zahn trilogy.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
He's one of the main people that have killed that
series, and this is where I gosilent everyone, because I do
not like stars kathleen kennedyand dave filoni and maybe even
john favreau here's how much Idon't like star wars.
I thought dave filoni wassomebody in star wars like a
character yes, I don't, he wasfiloni.

Speaker 4 (39:27):
Sounds like it could possibly be an episode who would
you cast as the main character?

Speaker 2 (39:33):
That would be.
What's his name.
What was his name?

Speaker 1 (39:37):
Larry.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
No.

Speaker 1 (39:39):
Skarsgård.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
I think he's a Skarsgård.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
Probably, they usually are.
It's a big-ass family.
He's a Coppola.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
They multiply on that .

Speaker 3 (39:47):
Related to the Coppolas somehow I don't know,
because I would have had to dothis quite some time ago because
I would want Mark Hamill asLuke.

Speaker 4 (39:57):
Because he talks to Luke.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
It can't be Disney Star Wars either, because Disney
ruined it.
Well, but you could do.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Sebastian Stan as Luke and he is really a good
casting, as Luke Carrie Fisherwould be really hard to replace.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
She was incredible as Leia.
Again, I don't like the showAhsoka, but the guy who plays?
The adult, the adult Shoot.
He was the Jedi in.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
He was the Jedi in.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
Wasn't it called Legends?
Was it called Legends?
I don't know About the group,the team.
I'm really showing my Star.

Speaker 4 (40:36):
Wars credentials, right here, the one that Ezra,
the guy who plays the adult.

Speaker 3 (40:40):
Ezra.
I would like to see him as DashRendar, or even Kyle Katarn.

Speaker 4 (40:43):
I can't either Dash Rendar.
I would dig into both of them.

Speaker 1 (40:48):
Dash Rendar, I'm even that sounds like a porn name.
For sure, yeah, he's an Indianactor.

Speaker 4 (40:55):
Unpopular opinion, probably.
I think Rebels is the best StarWars story of any that have
been put on film.
Kanan's my favorite Jedi.
The story is complete.

Speaker 2 (41:08):
That either has been on film.
It has a beginning, middle andend.

Speaker 4 (41:11):
Yeah, it's not as good as the Thrawn trilogy that
Timothy Zahn wrote the originalone, not the new Thrawn trilogy,
the original Thrawn trilogywith Talon Card in it.
Is there a new one?

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Uh-huh, it's what they're doing on Ahsoka, and it
is awful.

Speaker 4 (41:22):
Yeah, he's re-written it.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
No, no, no, that's not the Thrawn trilogy, it's
Timothy again.
He's writing it again.
Well, but it's a differentstory.

Speaker 4 (41:41):
But but the original throne trail, okay, incredible
we need to get scars guards andthey're cocaine.
Am I right?
Scars guards back on cocaine,because they can't write nothing
anymore.
Oh yeah, I guess that was theking family that we were talking
about.
There is like this, the stephenking lineage, all of his.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
So I'm gonna cheat a little bit with mine and I'm
going to venture away from StarWars as best I can, because I
have nothing to say to you allwith this.
I'm going to cheat a little bit, because they just recently
made a Super Mario Brothersmovie, which I think was pretty
good.
I enjoyed it I enjoyed it a lotand I think they're sneaking,

(42:09):
or this might be somethingthey're thinking about, but I am
a huge fan of the Luigi'sMansion series.
Yes and I think if they did areally good Luigi's.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
Mansion John Turturro as Luigi you know.
Oddly enough, I agree with youabout that?

Speaker 4 (42:22):
He would be good.
Sorry, that just popped in myhead, I think.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
Charlie Day was good with the voice.
I like Charlie.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
Day, I think he's very funny.

Speaker 3 (42:29):
I don't know who he is, but I think if they did it
animated like they did.
I think it could be.
It's always Sonny and Phil.
Yeah, it's always Sonny andPhil.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
He's one of the founders.
He's one of the drinks.
He's very funny.

Speaker 4 (42:39):
I like him, he was good as.

Speaker 1 (42:40):
Luigi, yeah, but if they made that and kind of did
it in the same style as whatthey did the Mario Brothers
movie, I think it would be donereally well.

Speaker 3 (42:54):
And those are really fun games.

Speaker 4 (42:56):
Yeah, but who did the little professor's voice though
.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
You could cheat on that and do like the Lego movies
first and just make him on hislobbing.
I'd make him like.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
Well, that's kind of how he is in the game, that is
what he does in the game, but Ithink that would be done really
well.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
And I own them all.
I think that would be donereally well, do you?

Speaker 4 (43:13):
remember that when the Lego games first came out,
that's when Lego games were sogood.
When they actually starteddoing the storylines was kind of
crap.
I didn't like the voice.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
The jokes landed better then, they kind of spoke
a little bit like Sims.
I think that would be donereally well.
You could have king boo uh,who's the main villain, and but,
but I played all three, wouldyou give?

Speaker 4 (43:39):
king boo a voice, or would he just be?

Speaker 1 (43:42):
uh, uh, you know, I don't know, I think, I think
you'd kind of have to give kingboo and the professor both of
them.
They gave donkey kong a voice Ithink that, given the donkey
kong I think, given donkey kongwas was the worst thing they did
in the movie it's because itwas a show type of thing I think
, I think that I don't like andI actually I know that some

(44:04):
people here aren't, but I'mactually a jack black fan I
don't like that they gave bowserhis that personality in the
movie.
I think he shouldn't have beenJack Black.

Speaker 4 (44:15):
He should have been Bowser Jr, who's the first one
you've heard.

Speaker 1 (44:19):
Jack Black could have been Bowser Jr better.

Speaker 4 (44:22):
What's his name?
Not Ludwig?

Speaker 1 (44:24):
No, bowser Jr is Bowser Jr.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
Oh, okay, so he doesn't have a first name, he's
just Bowser Bowser Jr.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
Ludwig Von Koopa, iggy Bowser, bowser, the Koopas,
and there's Ludwig Von Koopa.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
Von Koopa.
Okay, Iggy.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
Morton and the girl Wendy.

Speaker 4 (44:36):
Wendy.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
Yeah, which would be kind of fun to incorporate too.
Gosh, but in the Luigi'sMansion thing 40 years of gaming
folks, that's right.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
Just summing it up like that.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
You're welcome.
Well, at the third Luigi'sMansion you had Gooigi as well,
and that would be really fun todo.

Speaker 4 (44:52):
Oh, that would be a great speech Halfway through the
movie.
Yeah, that would be really fun.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
But if you've not played that game, have you
played that game?

Speaker 3 (45:00):
Oh, it's so good, oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
It's stupid fun.
It's like if you designed thegreatest.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
Ghostbusters Like Luigi's Mansion yes.
Like on Nintendo, luigi'sMansion yes.

Speaker 3 (45:08):
Like on Nintendo.
Yeah, like Ghostbusters, notlike.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
Mario is Missing, not Mario is Missing.
Do you remember that game?

Speaker 4 (45:14):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking, no.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Luigi's.

Speaker 3 (45:17):
Mansion.
It's like you're playing as aGhostbuster, it's like a vacuum
cleaner and it is On what Isthis like?

Speaker 2 (45:22):
in the past On the Switch.

Speaker 3 (45:29):
GameCube the Switch and it's co-op.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
You can play as Luigi and Gooigi.
It's like the best Ghostbustersgame you've ever played.

Speaker 3 (45:35):
Oh, it's worth getting.
I've got to let you borrow it.
It's really what they shouldhave made Ghostbusters 3.
I'll borrow it and I'll play it.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
I love it.
I think it's fantastic.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
Adam, let's move on to yours.
I've got all these games and Ilove them.
It was a movie and they'rehorror Cause I'm big horror fan.
I I'm not easily scared, so Ilike something that can scare me
.
It's why Hill house is has aplace in my heart, but Super
massive games Anything by them.

(46:08):
But I would like to see the ohshoot.
What are they called?

Speaker 3 (46:14):
Dark Pictures.
Dark Pictures they basicallyare movies.

Speaker 1 (46:19):
Oh, they're so good, are they good?
They are good, so good.
They're basically movies.
They're the same people who didthe Quarry and Until Dawn.

Speaker 4 (46:25):
Great Until, dawn's Until.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Dawn was their first one At first, and Peter Stormare
was genius in it.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
But these are better than those.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
That kid is in the story too.
First time I ever saw the kidthat we were talking about.

Speaker 4 (46:37):
This is an anthology.
Victor.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
Pascal, but this is an anthology.
It's four different.
Stories, stories from fourdifferent times, like there's a
witch child.

Speaker 4 (46:48):
Okay, yeah, it's like a series of stories.
The Little Hope Devil Inside Me.
Man of Manon.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
I think, Medan there's an HH Holmes.
I've heard of that one.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
That HH Holmes would be really cool, is it?

Speaker 4 (47:06):
supposed to be historically accurate.

Speaker 3 (47:09):
Stuff like that, I think would be really cool.
Is it supposed to be?

Speaker 2 (47:10):
historically accurate or did they play it into the?
Because HH Humphrey's stufflike that, I think would be
really cool.
That is so fun, yeah, and youcould do so much with them.
Which one would you pick?

Speaker 4 (47:18):
to make the movie out of, or would you want it as
like a?

Speaker 2 (47:20):
I would want it in an anthology.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
Like what really just did not know how to play it.
I enjoyed him, shutting off mymind.
I enjoyed him, you get fourmovies.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
You really I don't love him.

Speaker 2 (47:36):
Four distinct movies and just call it the Dark
Pictures Anthology.

Speaker 4 (47:40):
Sure Do like the old monster movies, and you know
four two-hour movies, One ofthem wasn't so bad.

Speaker 3 (47:45):
It's the but you would have to use the same
actors like they do in thosegames.
But I hated Pickman's model.
I thought that was absolutely.

Speaker 1 (47:52):
It wasn't my thing, I had fun with it.
I shut off my mind.

Speaker 2 (47:55):
Well, what they do in those games is it's the same
actors, with a couple ofexceptions.

Speaker 4 (48:00):
They bring some new, so Flanagan-esque Some of them,
right.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
But you would have to do that just to keep it in the
dark pieces, just to keep itsuper massive, type of thing.

Speaker 3 (48:09):
But I think it would be so much fun With Will Poulter
in it.
It's really good.
Yeah, that's Little Hope.

Speaker 4 (48:15):
Sorry, the other thing that I've seen where they
cast the same actors.
Have you seen Documentary?
Now Speaking of Jack.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
Black.
He was in an episode.
I hate to give them any creditbut that is really funny, bill
Hader I don't like the other guyat all, or?

Speaker 4 (48:27):
anything else, but he's good in that.

Speaker 2 (48:31):
I'm a Bill Hader fan.

Speaker 4 (48:32):
Jack Black's in episode three and he does a
really good job.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
Should we make a Bill Hader fan club and call
ourselves the haters.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
I'm not that big of a fan.
That's a little meta, isn't it?
I just like the thought ofdoing it.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
I don't know if I'm a enough fan to make a we're all
haters.

Speaker 3 (48:49):
We should make a lemonade.

Speaker 2 (48:51):
I'm a hater aid.
I mean, I'm a hater that's baddon't need no hateration, real
bad.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
I'm a father just tell my dad, jokes are on point,
that's right.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
I almost said so for this one.
I almost said Metal Gear Solid,just because I like.
I like the first.
It's genuinely I like one gamein that entire series.

Speaker 3 (49:12):
I believe that that's one game that can't be made
into a game I like.

Speaker 1 (49:15):
Snake Eater the gameplay, but let me tell you
and another hot take that I'mprobably going to get all sorts
of evil evil comments about.
I think Hideo Kojima istremendously overrated.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Way.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
Hugely Way If somebody can tell me the
storyline of death, stranding orany of the metal gear, solid
games, people connecting witheach other it's the dumbest crap
ever it's about a mailman iswhat that game's about oh my
gosh, some of the worst stuffever.
And let me tell you, phantompain was a nightmare to try to

(49:49):
get through.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
Love the gameplay.
It was so bad.
Gameplay is always good.

Speaker 3 (49:53):
I mean he knows how to make a game.
Well, everybody, okay,everybody talks about if there
is a good Metal Gear.
It was the it was the second itwas the second one because it
talked about the dangers ofinternet, and it was the third
one for it was a great it for Ican't wait to tell it was the
best.
I believe that Metal Gear 3,metal Gear Solid 3, was the best

(50:14):
James Bond movie we're evergoing to get.
It was silly, it was over thetop, it was jocular.
The villain even says now,before I kill you, I'm going to
tell you my plan.
It steered into everyaffectation we've ever heard
about this stuff and it'sbrilliantly done.
David Hayter was on point.
You could tell everybody lovedthe project.

(50:35):
Then Hideo Kojima makes four.
He wanted his father to tellhim that he was proud of him, so
he makes a 30-hour game to doit?

Speaker 4 (50:46):
Isn't there a 73-minute cutscene?

Speaker 1 (50:48):
Evan the last part of Death Stranding is three hours
long.
It's a cinema.
It's three hours long and hedidn't want to make it.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
He made it because people were actually sending him
death threats.
What happened to our favoritecharacter?
He takes the goofy crew from 3and makes them the Illuminati
for crying out loud, Just toplease fans.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
I respect him for wanting to please the fans but,
man, your artistry needs to comefirst and I am a silent hill
fan, but I am so happy thatsilent again gonna get some hate
comments from this.
I'm so happy that that didn'tget made, because it would have
been crap.

Speaker 3 (51:20):
It would have been silent hill 2 remake is being
made.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
No, no, silent hill 2 remake is out no, the silent
hill 2 remake movie is being.

Speaker 3 (51:25):
I'm talking about I'm not talking about the movie,
I'm talking about silent hills,the game, the one that but Hill
2 remake movie is being made.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
I'm not talking about the movie.
I'm talking about Silent.

Speaker 4 (51:30):
Hills the game and it's the same guy who did the
first one.

Speaker 1 (51:33):
The one that Guillermo del Toro.
The 2 remake was pretty good.
I own it.
The 2 remake was good.
The 2 remake's fantastic, Ithink a lot of girls does Marie,
but she's.

Speaker 3 (51:41):
It was good.
I think it's fun.

Speaker 2 (51:43):
I thought it was good , especially if you're a fan of
horror.
So them games scare me and I'mhard to scare.
I'm, on this level, hard toscare.

Speaker 3 (51:55):
The Quarry has an intro.
If you can play through theintro to the Quarry and put it
down, you are the winner.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
I still haven't played through the Quarry yet,
so that might be something thatwould be kind of fun, because
those games can be multiplayer,as in the sense that you can I
know, but you can so, howevermany characters there are, you
can assign a character tosomebody and every time it's
that character's time to make adecision.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
You can play it, yeah .

Speaker 1 (52:18):
So that would be kind of fun for us to do.

Speaker 2 (52:19):
That would be cool.
I would.

Speaker 4 (52:21):
And.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
I already own it.
I can bring my PlayStation home.

Speaker 4 (52:23):
You know the we can do it.
The me playing horror gamesdoesn't always.
Zachary tried to watch me playResident Evil 2 when it first
came out and when Mr X startschasing you.

Speaker 1 (52:36):
I go catatonic.
There's a safe room where Mr Xcan't come in and Evan just
wouldn't leave that room anymore.

Speaker 4 (52:41):
Yeah, I just stayed there for a little while.
I don't know what to do with myhands anymore when stuff gets,
so I play a game called so thatwould be so much fun to do this
thing.

Speaker 1 (52:49):
I play a game called Phasmophobia that you all need
to play.

Speaker 4 (52:52):
I stay in the truck One of the coolest games ever.

Speaker 3 (52:56):
Me and my son stay in the truck.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
That one Visage and Demonology Layers of Fear is
good.

Speaker 3 (53:04):
Layers of Fear started out really good.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
Phasmophobia would be a fun game.

Speaker 3 (53:08):
It could be.
It could be like.

Speaker 2 (53:09):
Ghost, ghost hunters or something like that, um ludo
I think would be cabin, one thatyou had me oh, the cabin
factory.

Speaker 3 (53:16):
Factory that was and well, it's not like horror
horror, like it's not going toreally jump out and scare you.
There's one called soma, if youbelieve in psychological and
that was.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
Is that one underwater or something sci-fi?

Speaker 3 (53:32):
it's very it's very sci-fi.
You probably wouldn't like it.
You would love it.
It's a game, terrible.
You play this character who isin a car crash and it's
destroyed your ability to havemuch of a memory.
So they're doing this guy'sdoing this new thing where he
actually implants something inyour head and it'll help your
memory.
It helps all this and he callsyou to his office and the first

(53:53):
part of it is you drive to hisoffice and you sit down and you
start talking to him and thenthe next thing you wake up and
you're in this rundown terriblething.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
I'm good.

Speaker 3 (54:01):
Sorry everybody, this rundown terrible thing, and it
stinks, everything's rusted,there's nobody around and you
turns out you're underwater.
You've been underwater for adecade, maybe more, and the
world has been absolutelyannihilated by a meteor strike.
And you find little.
You just find little tidbitsthat tell you this, like one of

(54:22):
them is.
And there you meet and you comeacross all these people who are
machines, but they swearthey're human.
In fact, when you start talkingto them about, well, you're
just a robot.
How are you?
What are you talking about?
They're all very conscious,they're all there they all have
emotions.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
Zachary would hate that.
That's right up my alley.
I don't mind horror stuff.

Speaker 3 (54:43):
It's a you really do.
It's the only game or moviethat I've actually sat down and
played.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
It's from the people of Amnesia.
Have you ever played Amnesia?
It was made by a person inAmnesia and it's so good.

Speaker 3 (54:56):
And at the end of it you really do start.
I've never had anything, evenlike Blade Runner and all that
Everybody says.
Well, it really made me thinkof what is a human, what is not
a human.
That SOMA really made me sitdown and actually address.
How far would robots have tocome before we consider them
people?
It was like the Star Trekepisode the one where they're

(55:16):
putting data on trial.
Yeah, I liked it.
And they try to kind of roughlyput horror elements in there.
These little creatures Notreally scary.
I can't tell you too much aboutthe game because I would love
you to play it.
I think you would really likeit.
I have it.
Like they discover thismaterial.
It's kind of like in Bioshock.
They discover this material atthe bottom.
That seems to be almost anintelligent material.

(55:36):
If you put it with machines,you tell the machine it will
subsidize what the machine'sdoing.
The machines start to grab ontopeople who are dying and the
machine only knows that they'resupposed to preserve human life.
So there's one woman you meetand she's just hooked up to this
machine and the machine'skeeping her alive and she is in
absolute hell and she tells youyou know I'd really like not to

(56:00):
be like this, but you know it'sthe only way I know to be.
