Speaker 1 (00:01):
Brad Comic Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Hey, what's up everybody, and welcome back to that comic podcast.
It's Wednesday, October twenty second. I'm your host Mashcoing with
me today are two of our wonderful hosts here on
the channel.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
First up, we have Baby Hueye wonderful, pushing it. Oh,
what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
What's going and plants, plants. We're doing plans today.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Rhyme, LANs and cyclope still sucks.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Wow, fantastic, ah Man, good stuff, good stuff. Yep. We
have what six six hosts that we roll through on
ever revolving thing.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Wait too many?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah. I had an opportunity, had an opportunity this weekend
to meet up with an old friend and receive some feedback,
and he wanted to hear about Marvel. He wanted to
hear about what's going on in the MCU. So that's
kind of what we're going to tackle today.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
I got basically.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, well and that then another friend, a long time
friend of the show at this point, but former host.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
And my girlfriend finally got to meet you in person.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
That's that's true. That's true.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I think he's like A. I have never met.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Him, am I A. I checked my hands, check my hands. Anyway,
thanks for coming back to check this show out today.
There's there's a couple of things that we want to cover.
Mostly it's some of the leaks that came out of
the Spider Man brand New Day set. Some really wonderful
(01:41):
photos and video actually have come out. There's also a
prominent MCU writer who's fan casting roles now, so we'll
talk a little bit about that. And uh, we're gonna
talk maybe in depth, but at least briefly about tront Aris.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Do we have to?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
We will, because I think it's more of a topic
of around cinema versus just tront Aris. But that that
kind of, you know, topped it all off. Anyway, let's
let's dive into it. So Sadie Sink, we've been talking
(02:25):
about her for a while now. We've been talking about
who's she going to play. There's probably what seven different
people that we've heard of and speculated about. So finally,
though we've seen her on set, we still don't know
who she is. There's this new speculation out there that
(02:45):
she might be playing the sidekick to Frank Castle, and
that person is Rachel Cole Alvas. For those of you
that don't know. That character is a marine sergeant basically
sort of multiple tours in Afghanistan, and where she became
an actual vigilante was because after getting married two short
(03:07):
hours after that her husband was killed during a Yeah,
so I mean that'll do it.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
So that's that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, because first off, I kind of put her in
the block of up and coming Hollywood stars potentially, and
this just really seems like a minor character for who
she could be playing.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Right, definitely feels misleading.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yes, now again, yeah, we're still multi versing it up.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I mean, look, here's here's a comic book picture of
her character.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Right, I'm here.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Yeah, do we know how old the character is supposed
to be.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I believe it was from what I read. Trying to
think back to it. I mean, multiple tours in Afghanistan
probably question thirty probably most likely. I mean she's like
early twenties, maybe twenty five at this point, but I
mean age, you know whatever. But I think that's it's
(04:21):
it's short changing her in a role in the MCU
TO in my opinion.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
For sure, especially with their caliber of her projects she's done.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
So far, right, I mean, marry you got Mary Jane.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
You have.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Firestorm or fire Yeah, Firestorm, fire Starter. Sorry, I've been
listening to Progy a lot lately, so I'm about but
the uh, Jean Gray is probably the biggest potential for her. Yeah,
I know, that's still gwyn Stacy's still another one. So
(04:58):
it's kind of odd that this might be be her character.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, it definitely feels like a bait and switch if
they're leaning towards that, or at least trying to leak
what these photos are. So is this the only photo
of her being wrapped up in a jacket with a
hood on.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, there's one where she's standing by her stunt double,
but it's just you're just seeing the back of her
now in that picture, she does have like combat boots on,
So okay, I mean that kind of plays to the
character of Rachel. It just I don't know, it just
it in my opinion, that is not a good role
(05:40):
for her unless there is you know, the switch, right, It.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Just really feels like that kind of Mandarin Iron Man
kind of switcheroo. But I mean, at this point, we
have so many a list names attached to this movie
in general, that is possible that she could be playing
a bit part because I don't think she's at that
a list level yet, but she's still recognizable. And if
(06:07):
you fill the stage with stars.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, I don't know any on her. I think more
will come out, Yeah, for sure at the beginning stages
of seeing her.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I mean, yeah, this is probable speculation because the Punisher
is going to be in the show or in the movie,
and yeah, I mean they're just reaching for it.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I mean the rumor has been out there that he's
getting a sidekick, but not you know, a partner will
say not necessarily sidekick, but like Misty Knight was kind
of the name getting thrown around that I was hearing, which,
h yeah, you know maybe. But anyway, excited to see
(06:57):
some early photos of her on set. I know, we
been waiting another person that kind of showed up really
out of nowhere. We're kind of waiting for it. Also,
So yeah, Ruffalo himself.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
They really tried to hide him. They had him glued
up and uh and in the hoodies and zipped up people.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
And he's wearing the same jacket that said he's got on.
So they are definitely uh yeah the team jackets.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, sorry, go ahead. So I can't tell from the
picture is that a white beard or is he just
beat up?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
He's just beat up.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
He's beat up? Okay, which is And that's where I
was kind of going there. There's a video of him.
Whoever's taking the photo, I want to give him credit,
but I can't think of it. It was like unboxed PD
or something. Yeah, right there, PhD, PhD. He's been coming
out with some really good stuff lately. Or she. I
don't know their gender. Anyway, there was video of him
(08:04):
on a hospital gurney getting either taken into a building
or removed, and there was a rumor out there that
that was actually real and he was hurt. Oh, like
that wasn't actually filming. That was him getting real checked out?
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Didn't we hear something about people getting injured on the
sets of like Doomsday and things like that.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Yeah, I mean Holland had a concussion about a week
or two ago. He's back on set. We saw some photos,
new photos too.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Dang concussion protocols two weeks though.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Not if you're the Miami Dolphins quarterback, it's like two hours. Yeah,
you got the two A protocol two minutes or two quarters.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
This is exciting because we heard that he wasn't going
to be in Doomsday, right, the Hulk in general think.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, we heard Holland wasn't going to be in Doomsday,
and Holland.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Here's a video of him and the gurney.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah, I mean they're definitely not moving quickly. So I
think it's part of.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
The Yeah, I would think so. But you know someone's
out there spout in their mouth about things.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Thank you construction worker in the building next door.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Right, that's the problem with doing all these things out
in the open.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Yeah, which is weird because we've seen from Doomsday that
a lot of it is closed set and stuff, and
everything we've seen from No Way Home has been outdoors
in public.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Well there was, I would say what we went for
about a month without really anything coming out of that
production of Spiders Man. So I'm sure they they did that.
I mean they were at that studio.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Just it just means with Doomsday, it's a lot of
CG backgrounds. Yeah, that's which, that's what that means.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
A man in the Wasp style.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Hopefully that's the street scene makes up for all of
it with the practical stuff they did. Yeah, but you
know that's the new stuff. Well, we'll keep a close
eye on it and make sure we post what we
can about Sadie. Once we find out what she's really doing,
she gets the Punisher's kull on her, that would be neat.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
There was something Sadie sinc related. I'm not sure if
you were going to cover this moshco.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
But if it's Stranger Things, absolutely not, but go ahead.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
The cast I don't remember who exactly it was, but
they had mentioned to the press that they're very worried
about how people are going to receive this final season
of Stranger Things. They said they're scared of a Game
of Thrones ending type effect.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Because there's a lot behind it.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
What six episodes an hour and a half each. I
mean that's you're making six.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Movies pretty much.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
But I mean as as the stars of the movie
or show or whatever you call it, at this point,
you you don't tell the press. Oh, I'm worried that
people are gonna think it's bad.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Point.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
We'll see that comes out later this year.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Maybe he's just trying to, you know, temper expectations there.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Let's let's move on to this next one, because I
think this is kind of funny and I think it's
a story that has no real, no real backing or yeah,
so uh was it Michael Waldron Waldron, Oh yeah from
so yeah, he's he's one of the writers that worked
on the script for Doomsday. Also wrote Loki Doctor Strange
(11:48):
in the multi Verse of Madness. He also did some
uncredited work on bor Love and Thunder and Fantastic Four
and most notably or as of you know, most recently,
he also is the co creator of had Powers. Now
we know who the this. It's funny because this next
name I'm gonna mention is doing like four jobs on
(12:10):
John Chad Powers. He's you know, producing, uh, co creator.
I'm sure he's writing some things, all that good stuff.
But Michael Waldron thinks Glenn Powell will be a perfect
actor for Nova. Who is Richard Ryder or another name
we could always say is Dick Rider. I said it,
(12:35):
you know, I.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Don't think I've ever heard anyone call him that before.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, it's of course, like this is this is his
boy man, like this is of course he's gonna say.
But I don't hate it. But again Nova, like.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Yeah, well, I mean that does kind of confirm that
Nova is not going to be in Doomsday, right I
don't know because if he's fan casting and he's writing
the dang thing.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Ah, I mean, like can you see a here you go.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
He's a little old, right, he's pushing forty because I've
always known the Nova characters like an early twenty something.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
No, I mean he's the he's like the hell of
the uh of the novacoorts House. Pretty old, right, Oh yeah,
in comparison to the other you know, like Sam Alexander,
who is like in his he's a team. So if
you bring in Sam, you got that father son aspect
to it.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
And we are getting that ninety year old green lantern
show what's his name? Early edition guy?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
It's way over my head. I don't know what you're talking.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
About, the guy that's playing.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Uh yeah, then show look Kyle Chandler.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Yeah, yeah, he was on a show called an Early
Edition where you got the next day's newspaper.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Oh right, right, it was on like it's it's coach Man,
It's Fridrey night Lights.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Actually a side note with the lanterns, so the premise
of lanterns is supposed to be that they came the
lanterns are coming here to look for a missing lantern, right,
mm hmm, how did how did a Peacemaker end?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I don't know if it was it wasn't a I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Tell Us, did you did you watch you anything?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I saw it, but I like I again, I okay
for the last episode, it was like at.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
The end, uh, a Peacemaker ends up in Salvation, right,
and they're gonna be gathering up all the medics and stuff.
So this that Salvation thing might be tied direct into
the Lantern Show.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
It's supposed to.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Yeah, confirmed guy Guy might be in Salvation.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
So we are we thinking they're going to where Peacemaker
is or they're going to whatever, and then figuring out
where that is.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Did confirm that this is a completely new universe, completely
separate from everything. So I lost sound for a second.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Gotcha, Okay, Yeah, you're the point that here.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I think that they're just gonna they'll probably be looking
for Guy Gardner or somebody in Salvation and maybe running
the Peacemaker.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah. I remember when they were shooting some of that.
There was some shots of the police vehicles that were
Evergreen or wherever they were. I forget the act the
name of the town, but it was the same thing,
same type of p The vehicles. Back to Glen Powell, though,
(16:05):
I think he's too. He needs a major character in
one of these franchises, not just oh Nova all right.
Maybe it's maybe it's my ignorance and not knowing Nova
as you know, but you can.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Get like a star trek type show that he could lead.
That interesting that.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I mean, you do Nova like guards the galaxy, whereas
he's space hopping, right.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
But yeah, it does feel big for little that makes
any sense.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Little, for like I look at him, and I look
at I see him as the I don't even want
to say the next big action star or whatever, because
I think he's kind of taken that over. Anyway, we're
just not seeing a running Man comes out soon. I
hope that's wonderful. It looks like it's going to be
(17:01):
pretty entertaining. Will people go to the movies to see it?
That's for our conversation later. But you know, I just
I just think he's he's I don't know, maybe Batman.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
I mean, who knows about this, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Batman, he's I mean I could see his Batman too. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Yeah, anyway, we'll we'll table that for another day.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Here's you told us you got some news that you
want to share with us until them.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
You might have caught the one. You my, I don't
think you caught the other one, and the other one
is pure gossip. So according to my Time to Shine Hello,
we are divisive on he, she, whomever with their scoops.
But they've begun looking for writers for the upcoming Jessica
(17:56):
Jones project that Marvel TV head Brad Winderbaum hinted at
New York City Comic Con twenty five.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
So does is this fall under that category that they
announced of TV you don't need to watch to understand
what's going on in MCU, because that's what it feels.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Like probably when I'm looking at and I'm seeing this
as like whatever season number four Jessica Jones like Born
Again but for her so her Born Again story?
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeah, which for it?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
The uh some podcasts, I am not familiar with it
at all, Phase Hero podcast. I guess they were at
the con and talk to Winderbaum, so good for them.
Uh he shared that it's sooner than you think.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Oh interesting, Yeah, maybe a super Bowl show.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Who knows. I imagine it's probably an eight issue or
an eight issue, eight episode TV show, just like Born Again.
I don't know, we'll see I'm that I want to
see it. Oh yeah, you know the second season was okay,
third season wasn't the greatest. So I think there's some
(19:19):
redemption that we want to happen because that first season
was phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
So Born Again season two releases March fourth, okay, So
if it were to be sooner than we think, and
maybe say February, end of January, maybe it's like a
five or six issue issue. They got me saying five
or six episodes and it leads directly into season two
(19:46):
of Daredevil.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Yeah, for sure, especially around that time.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
It's or it's right after a Dared double seasons.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
That's what i'm That's what I'm thinking, because they would rein,
they will re enter her and Born Again. We know
that's happening. We know she filmed, and then it would
I don't know, Yeah, a couple of months later if
she was filming, I think we would know. So I
don't think that started yet. So I wonder they're filming
(20:17):
pretty quickly right now.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Yeah, and so many pictures and sightings of her on set,
you know Born Again set, Like are they filming this
at the same time potentially on the same set.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Well, that's the other.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, there's probably some scenes that they're filming for both.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yeah. I mean, if you look at all the cons
that are out like every week, you're and they're usually
doing that whole circuit. Like everybody's like, you know, they're
canceling Saturday, they're canceling the weekend. They're just there on Friday.
It's happened with cos it happened with with her, I think. Yeah,
I said it, Dick, That's great. I'll pat my back
(21:01):
on that one later anyway. You know, good stuff. I'm
all for it, Michael right now coming back. Oh yeah, sure,
that'll happen soon.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Twenty twenty six is gonna be legendary.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, yeah, all.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Right, what's your second thing you had for us?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
This is pure gossip. This is straight off of like
People magazine type thing. I thought it was. It's relevant,
but it's not relevant. I just want to discuss a
part of it. But allegedly or actually no, this was confirmed,
David Harbor cheated on his wife Lilly Allen. Now, okay,
(21:44):
that happens whatever, that's that's their thing. The part I
have issue with is there are people now on the
internet calling for him to be fired from all of
his projects. They want to cancel him for the.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
What what what?
Speaker 2 (22:03):
What's happening here? This?
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Oh okay, that's if this is accurate and it gets
any further than a rumor, I'm I'm done with it all.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Like, well, it's it happens, they all.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
I mean, like the aftermath is what I'm afraying, like
the personal and in business or or you know, your
job as an actor should always be separate, unless it
comes down to those other allegations that we have with
like Jonathan Major's where it becomes public. Otherwise, leave it out.
It's two completely different beings.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Entirely, we're all on the same page. There, I figured
we would be. She so his wife is Lily Allen.
She's an actress, singer or singer. There you go. I
guess there's there's a lot out there on her too.
So whatever, I'll never do that again. You're you're saying, no, no,
(23:07):
never never the tm z R show here, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
K Pop demon are still still training never the biggest
thing on earth right now.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Yes, I'm trying to look at this here.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
All right, all right, let's let's round this thing out
with tron areas did any of us see it?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
No?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
All right, So that's part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
There was no desire to see it.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I never got into Tron at all, so I had
no intentions of seeing it.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I grew up with Tron, and so I love O. G. Tron.
I love what's his name who plays the main character,
Jeff Bridges. Yeah, he's phenomenal. When he came back. And
the second one, it was still cool. But this is
so far separated from Tron itself that Tron isn't even
(24:12):
in the movie like at all. It's just like, what
are we doing here? Two hundred and twenty million dollar
budget for this thing that nobody wanted.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Yeah, it flopped.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
I mean I heard nothing but wonderful things about the
visuals and the sound. And you know the reason a
lot of two of the main big reasons you actually
go to the movies, and you know it still didn't
want to go it, did you know when you talk
about Tron, and I remember going renting the you know,
(24:46):
the big fat Disney box that was at the video
retailer or video rental place, and you know, getting that
it was it was super cool, and legacy was pretty good.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
But this is the Hamagon.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
This is the this is the wild thing about it
is like every every movie that comes out is followed
by ten to twelve fifteen, Who knows how many other
articles or people you know bitching on YouTube about it flopping,
like every movie flops. Yeah, I don't know, sure it
(25:25):
might be it might be flopping versus the budget, right,
But things are all way different now compared to five, ten,
fifteen years ago when these movies were making huge money.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Because we've talked about it with Menti before, Like people
don't want to go to the theaters anymore, like the
movie etiquette is going. You go for these bigger movies
now and people want to just start filming and get
those crowd reactions, like like the Endgame, that's only one Nowadiys,
Like I said meant and I went to go see
(26:00):
Turtles when that came out. There's a whole row of
kids talking and like not even like whispering, but talking
behind us, like I turned on told them to shut
the hell up, Like the etiquette's gone. The movie theaters
themselves don't take care of the theaters, like the seats
(26:21):
rip and which happens over time, but they're not getting
replaced they're not clean the way they used to be cleaned.
It's just the experience as for the movie itself is gone.
So I'd rather save you know, the fifty bucks is
gonna you know, take me to go out to the theater,
even by myself.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Yeah, which is wild that it's there there want us
to go to the movie theaters. But every week they
take the prices.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Go up, right, So I'd rather wait for it to
come out on Disney. Plus, yeah, it's gonna be out.
It's gonna be out like next week anyway.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Yeah, that's the thing to turn around. So but and
that's that's where I get it irritated. And even I'm
not gonna say upset because that's ridiculous, but I get
irritated that everything is just flopping. They're not looking through
the lens of the current climate in cinema, Like everything
(27:15):
is like, oh, well, this movie made, you know, the
whole Superman thing, like Superman made whatever eight whatever, six
seven million, seven hundred million dollars or whatever, and then
Superman this time around made a little bit less and
they're considering it a flop because it didn't beat a movie.
You know, when I think, when I think about the
(27:38):
amount of movies I used to go to ten years ago,
Like I was probably seeing twenty to twenty five movies
a year in theater, And now I'm lucky if I
go to four good.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
That the A list stubs, whatever the AMC has, Like
if I would have had that in my twenties, guarantee
I would be a part of that.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
I had that movie. I just I canceled a couple
like a years ago. But I'm not near an AMC
as closely as I used to be. But yeah, twenty seventeen,
eighteen nineteen, I was, and I had the A list.
I was going to a minimum of two movies a month,
(28:22):
especially during the summertime when all the blockbusters come. I
was going, you know, maybe a couple of times a
week sometimes Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
And you were seeing them multiple times.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Correct, So the twenty five bucks a month I was
paying for it was paying for itself because you could
see up the three movies a week.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
I'm pretty sure I saw X two in theaters like
four times. It was one of those like all right,
I'm gonna just sneak into this other movie here.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
And in general, for me, I think they need to
get rid of the dollar amount that the movie made,
just because now with ticket prices, it should just be
tickets sane, because no matter if it was nineteen, you know,
eighty or you know, nineteen ninety or two thousand, the
number is still the same. Yes, the dollar amount is
(29:10):
increased because ticket prices are going up, but the amount
of tickets they've sold have stayed the same regardless, so
that number won't change. So that that's I think where
you know, they should be counting ticket sales, not dollar amount.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
And that's another thing. So like when in the twenty
twenty when when Black Widow came out straight to streaming,
how did they judge that as a success or a
failure just based on streams, Like because you always have
streams ticket numbers, you don't have prices of anything.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Which is the only way for those streams to be
counted is for you or for me Disney to tell
you how many times it's streamed, which I mean.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
That's can be plated really and they would probably count
what the average household is, what three to four people
the average family household, So they would probably count each
stream as three to four people.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Yeah, which is even more. Yeah, that's wild to think
about because you you see these movies that are five
hundred million dollar budgets, you know, the avatars, the Superman
stuff like that. You see them getting tickets. But if
you're not a big, flashy, multi one hundred million dollar production,
(30:22):
people just don't feel like it's worth the theater experience.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Well, Tront proves that wrong. Well, yeah, Tront is very
flashy and people its own bird.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I mean home setups of you know, fully advanced too,
so you know eighty five inch TVs are not terribly expensive, correct,
So yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
So you and I were just with the mister Mawraths
past weekend and his whole setup. Yeah, I would watch
the movies down there, you know.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Right, a lot of a lot. And that's again my point,
there are so many other options to view things in
such a you know, perfect way. That to call every
single movie a flop when it comes out because it
didn't hit, it's weird.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah, and the these numbers that they just made up,
you know, Oh, if it doesn't hit sixty billion dollars,
it's it's not a hit.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
And some movies aren't even made for that purpose. Some
are just strictly made for award season.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Oh, yeah, absolutely, so the smashing Machine.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I'm sure he'll still get anyway, No need to continue

Brad Comic Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Hey, what's up everybody, and welcome back to that comic podcast.
It's Wednesday, October twenty second. I'm your host Mashcoing with
me today are two of our wonderful hosts here on
the channel.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
First up, we have Baby Hueye wonderful, pushing it. Oh,
what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
What's going and plants, plants. We're doing plans today.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Rhyme, LANs and cyclope still sucks.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Wow, fantastic, ah Man, good stuff, good stuff. Yep. We
have what six six hosts that we roll through on
ever revolving thing.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Wait too many?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah. I had an opportunity, had an opportunity this weekend
to meet up with an old friend and receive some feedback,
and he wanted to hear about Marvel. He wanted to
hear about what's going on in the MCU. So that's
kind of what we're going to tackle today.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
I got basically.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, well and that then another friend, a long time
friend of the show at this point, but former host.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
And my girlfriend finally got to meet you in person.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
That's that's true. That's true.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I think he's like A. I have never met.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Him, am I A. I checked my hands, check my hands. Anyway,
thanks for coming back to check this show out today.
There's there's a couple of things that we want to cover.
Mostly it's some of the leaks that came out of
the Spider Man brand New Day set. Some really wonderful
(01:41):
photos and video actually have come out. There's also a
prominent MCU writer who's fan casting roles now, so we'll
talk a little bit about that. And uh, we're gonna
talk maybe in depth, but at least briefly about tront Aris.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Do we have to?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
We will, because I think it's more of a topic
of around cinema versus just tront Aris. But that that
kind of, you know, topped it all off. Anyway, let's
let's dive into it. So Sadie Sink, we've been talking
(02:25):
about her for a while now. We've been talking about
who's she going to play. There's probably what seven different
people that we've heard of and speculated about. So finally,
though we've seen her on set, we still don't know
who she is. There's this new speculation out there that
(02:45):
she might be playing the sidekick to Frank Castle, and
that person is Rachel Cole Alvas. For those of you
that don't know. That character is a marine sergeant basically
sort of multiple tours in Afghanistan, and where she became
an actual vigilante was because after getting married two short
(03:07):
hours after that her husband was killed during a Yeah,
so I mean that'll do it.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
So that's that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, because first off, I kind of put her in
the block of up and coming Hollywood stars potentially, and
this just really seems like a minor character for who
she could be playing.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Right, definitely feels misleading.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yes, now again, yeah, we're still multi versing it up.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I mean, look, here's here's a comic book picture of
her character.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Right, I'm here.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Yeah, do we know how old the character is supposed
to be.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I believe it was from what I read. Trying to
think back to it. I mean, multiple tours in Afghanistan
probably question thirty probably most likely. I mean she's like
early twenties, maybe twenty five at this point, but I
mean age, you know whatever. But I think that's it's
(04:21):
it's short changing her in a role in the MCU
TO in my opinion.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
For sure, especially with their caliber of her projects she's done.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
So far, right, I mean, marry you got Mary Jane.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
You have.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Firestorm or fire Yeah, Firestorm, fire Starter. Sorry, I've been
listening to Progy a lot lately, so I'm about but
the uh, Jean Gray is probably the biggest potential for her. Yeah,
I know, that's still gwyn Stacy's still another one. So
(04:58):
it's kind of odd that this might be be her character.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, it definitely feels like a bait and switch if
they're leaning towards that, or at least trying to leak
what these photos are. So is this the only photo
of her being wrapped up in a jacket with a
hood on.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, there's one where she's standing by her stunt double,
but it's just you're just seeing the back of her
now in that picture, she does have like combat boots on,
So okay, I mean that kind of plays to the
character of Rachel. It just I don't know, it just
it in my opinion, that is not a good role
(05:40):
for her unless there is you know, the switch, right, It.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Just really feels like that kind of Mandarin Iron Man
kind of switcheroo. But I mean, at this point, we
have so many a list names attached to this movie
in general, that is possible that she could be playing
a bit part because I don't think she's at that
a list level yet, but she's still recognizable. And if
(06:07):
you fill the stage with stars.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, I don't know any on her. I think more
will come out, Yeah, for sure at the beginning stages
of seeing her.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I mean, yeah, this is probable speculation because the Punisher
is going to be in the show or in the movie,
and yeah, I mean they're just reaching for it.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I mean the rumor has been out there that he's
getting a sidekick, but not you know, a partner will
say not necessarily sidekick, but like Misty Knight was kind
of the name getting thrown around that I was hearing, which,
h yeah, you know maybe. But anyway, excited to see
(06:57):
some early photos of her on set. I know, we
been waiting another person that kind of showed up really
out of nowhere. We're kind of waiting for it. Also,
So yeah, Ruffalo himself.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
They really tried to hide him. They had him glued
up and uh and in the hoodies and zipped up people.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
And he's wearing the same jacket that said he's got on.
So they are definitely uh yeah the team jackets.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, sorry, go ahead. So I can't tell from the
picture is that a white beard or is he just
beat up?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
He's just beat up.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
He's beat up? Okay, which is And that's where I
was kind of going there. There's a video of him.
Whoever's taking the photo, I want to give him credit,
but I can't think of it. It was like unboxed PD
or something. Yeah, right there, PhD, PhD. He's been coming
out with some really good stuff lately. Or she. I
don't know their gender. Anyway, there was video of him
(08:04):
on a hospital gurney getting either taken into a building
or removed, and there was a rumor out there that
that was actually real and he was hurt. Oh, like
that wasn't actually filming. That was him getting real checked out?
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Didn't we hear something about people getting injured on the
sets of like Doomsday and things like that.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Yeah, I mean Holland had a concussion about a week
or two ago. He's back on set. We saw some photos,
new photos too.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Dang concussion protocols two weeks though.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Not if you're the Miami Dolphins quarterback, it's like two hours. Yeah,
you got the two A protocol two minutes or two quarters.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
This is exciting because we heard that he wasn't going
to be in Doomsday, right, the Hulk in general think.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, we heard Holland wasn't going to be in Doomsday,
and Holland.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Here's a video of him and the gurney.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Yeah, I mean they're definitely not moving quickly. So I
think it's part of.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
The Yeah, I would think so. But you know someone's
out there spout in their mouth about things.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Thank you construction worker in the building next door.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Right, that's the problem with doing all these things out
in the open.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Yeah, which is weird because we've seen from Doomsday that
a lot of it is closed set and stuff, and
everything we've seen from No Way Home has been outdoors
in public.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Well there was, I would say what we went for
about a month without really anything coming out of that
production of Spiders Man. So I'm sure they they did that.
I mean they were at that studio.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Just it just means with Doomsday, it's a lot of
CG backgrounds. Yeah, that's which, that's what that means.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
A man in the Wasp style.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Hopefully that's the street scene makes up for all of
it with the practical stuff they did. Yeah, but you
know that's the new stuff. Well, we'll keep a close
eye on it and make sure we post what we
can about Sadie. Once we find out what she's really doing,
she gets the Punisher's kull on her, that would be neat.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
There was something Sadie sinc related. I'm not sure if
you were going to cover this moshco.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
But if it's Stranger Things, absolutely not, but go ahead.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
The cast I don't remember who exactly it was, but
they had mentioned to the press that they're very worried
about how people are going to receive this final season
of Stranger Things. They said they're scared of a Game
of Thrones ending type effect.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Because there's a lot behind it.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
What six episodes an hour and a half each. I
mean that's you're making six.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Movies pretty much.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
But I mean as as the stars of the movie
or show or whatever you call it, at this point,
you you don't tell the press. Oh, I'm worried that
people are gonna think it's bad.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Point.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
We'll see that comes out later this year.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Maybe he's just trying to, you know, temper expectations there.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Let's let's move on to this next one, because I
think this is kind of funny and I think it's
a story that has no real, no real backing or yeah,
so uh was it Michael Waldron Waldron, Oh yeah from
so yeah, he's he's one of the writers that worked
on the script for Doomsday. Also wrote Loki Doctor Strange
(11:48):
in the multi Verse of Madness. He also did some
uncredited work on bor Love and Thunder and Fantastic Four
and most notably or as of you know, most recently,
he also is the co creator of had Powers. Now
we know who the this. It's funny because this next
name I'm gonna mention is doing like four jobs on
(12:10):
John Chad Powers. He's you know, producing, uh, co creator.
I'm sure he's writing some things, all that good stuff.
But Michael Waldron thinks Glenn Powell will be a perfect
actor for Nova. Who is Richard Ryder or another name
we could always say is Dick Rider. I said it,
(12:35):
you know, I.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Don't think I've ever heard anyone call him that before.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, it's of course, like this is this is his
boy man, like this is of course he's gonna say.
But I don't hate it. But again Nova, like.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Yeah, well, I mean that does kind of confirm that
Nova is not going to be in Doomsday, right I
don't know because if he's fan casting and he's writing
the dang thing.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Ah, I mean, like can you see a here you go.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
He's a little old, right, he's pushing forty because I've
always known the Nova characters like an early twenty something.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
No, I mean he's the he's like the hell of
the uh of the novacoorts House. Pretty old, right, Oh yeah,
in comparison to the other you know, like Sam Alexander,
who is like in his he's a team. So if
you bring in Sam, you got that father son aspect
to it.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
And we are getting that ninety year old green lantern
show what's his name? Early edition guy?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
It's way over my head. I don't know what you're talking.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
About, the guy that's playing.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Uh yeah, then show look Kyle Chandler.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Yeah, yeah, he was on a show called an Early
Edition where you got the next day's newspaper.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Oh right, right, it was on like it's it's coach Man,
It's Fridrey night Lights.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Actually a side note with the lanterns, so the premise
of lanterns is supposed to be that they came the
lanterns are coming here to look for a missing lantern, right,
mm hmm, how did how did a Peacemaker end?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I don't know if it was it wasn't a I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Tell Us, did you did you watch you anything?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I saw it, but I like I again, I okay
for the last episode, it was like at.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
The end, uh, a Peacemaker ends up in Salvation, right,
and they're gonna be gathering up all the medics and stuff.
So this that Salvation thing might be tied direct into
the Lantern Show.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
It's supposed to.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Yeah, confirmed guy Guy might be in Salvation.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
So we are we thinking they're going to where Peacemaker
is or they're going to whatever, and then figuring out
where that is.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Did confirm that this is a completely new universe, completely
separate from everything. So I lost sound for a second.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Gotcha, Okay, Yeah, you're the point that here.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I think that they're just gonna they'll probably be looking
for Guy Gardner or somebody in Salvation and maybe running
the Peacemaker.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah. I remember when they were shooting some of that.
There was some shots of the police vehicles that were
Evergreen or wherever they were. I forget the act the
name of the town, but it was the same thing,
same type of p The vehicles. Back to Glen Powell, though,
(16:05):
I think he's too. He needs a major character in
one of these franchises, not just oh Nova all right.
Maybe it's maybe it's my ignorance and not knowing Nova
as you know, but you can.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Get like a star trek type show that he could lead.
That interesting that.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I mean, you do Nova like guards the galaxy, whereas
he's space hopping, right.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
But yeah, it does feel big for little that makes
any sense.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Little, for like I look at him, and I look
at I see him as the I don't even want
to say the next big action star or whatever, because
I think he's kind of taken that over. Anyway, we're
just not seeing a running Man comes out soon. I
hope that's wonderful. It looks like it's going to be
(17:01):
pretty entertaining. Will people go to the movies to see it?
That's for our conversation later. But you know, I just
I just think he's he's I don't know, maybe Batman.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
I mean, who knows about this, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Batman, he's I mean I could see his Batman too. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Yeah, anyway, we'll we'll table that for another day.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Here's you told us you got some news that you
want to share with us until them.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
You might have caught the one. You my, I don't
think you caught the other one, and the other one
is pure gossip. So according to my Time to Shine Hello,
we are divisive on he, she, whomever with their scoops.
But they've begun looking for writers for the upcoming Jessica
(17:56):
Jones project that Marvel TV head Brad Winderbaum hinted at
New York City Comic Con twenty five.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
So does is this fall under that category that they
announced of TV you don't need to watch to understand
what's going on in MCU, because that's what it feels.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Like probably when I'm looking at and I'm seeing this
as like whatever season number four Jessica Jones like Born
Again but for her so her Born Again story?
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeah, which for it?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
The uh some podcasts, I am not familiar with it
at all, Phase Hero podcast. I guess they were at
the con and talk to Winderbaum, so good for them.
Uh he shared that it's sooner than you think.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Oh interesting, Yeah, maybe a super Bowl show.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Who knows. I imagine it's probably an eight issue or
an eight issue, eight episode TV show, just like Born Again.
I don't know, we'll see I'm that I want to
see it. Oh yeah, you know the second season was okay,
third season wasn't the greatest. So I think there's some
(19:19):
redemption that we want to happen because that first season
was phenomenal.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
So Born Again season two releases March fourth, okay, So
if it were to be sooner than we think, and
maybe say February, end of January, maybe it's like a
five or six issue issue. They got me saying five
or six episodes and it leads directly into season two
(19:46):
of Daredevil.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Yeah, for sure, especially around that time.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
It's or it's right after a Dared double seasons.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
That's what i'm That's what I'm thinking, because they would rein,
they will re enter her and Born Again. We know
that's happening. We know she filmed, and then it would
I don't know, Yeah, a couple of months later if
she was filming, I think we would know. So I
don't think that started yet. So I wonder they're filming
(20:17):
pretty quickly right now.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Yeah, and so many pictures and sightings of her on set,
you know Born Again set, Like are they filming this
at the same time potentially on the same set.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Well, that's the other.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, there's probably some scenes that they're filming for both.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yeah. I mean, if you look at all the cons
that are out like every week, you're and they're usually
doing that whole circuit. Like everybody's like, you know, they're
canceling Saturday, they're canceling the weekend. They're just there on Friday.
It's happened with cos it happened with with her, I think. Yeah,
I said it, Dick, That's great. I'll pat my back
(21:01):
on that one later anyway. You know, good stuff. I'm
all for it, Michael right now coming back. Oh yeah, sure,
that'll happen soon.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Twenty twenty six is gonna be legendary.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, yeah, all.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Right, what's your second thing you had for us?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
This is pure gossip. This is straight off of like
People magazine type thing. I thought it was. It's relevant,
but it's not relevant. I just want to discuss a
part of it. But allegedly or actually no, this was confirmed,
David Harbor cheated on his wife Lilly Allen. Now, okay,
(21:44):
that happens whatever, that's that's their thing. The part I
have issue with is there are people now on the
internet calling for him to be fired from all of
his projects. They want to cancel him for the.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
What what what?
Speaker 2 (22:03):
What's happening here? This?
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Oh okay, that's if this is accurate and it gets
any further than a rumor, I'm I'm done with it all.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Like, well, it's it happens, they all.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
I mean, like the aftermath is what I'm afraying, like
the personal and in business or or you know, your
job as an actor should always be separate, unless it
comes down to those other allegations that we have with
like Jonathan Major's where it becomes public. Otherwise, leave it out.
It's two completely different beings.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Entirely, we're all on the same page. There, I figured
we would be. She so his wife is Lily Allen.
She's an actress, singer or singer. There you go. I
guess there's there's a lot out there on her too.
So whatever, I'll never do that again. You're you're saying, no, no,
(23:07):
never never the tm z R show here, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
K Pop demon are still still training never the biggest
thing on earth right now.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Yes, I'm trying to look at this here.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
All right, all right, let's let's round this thing out
with tron areas did any of us see it?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
No?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
All right, So that's part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
There was no desire to see it.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I never got into Tron at all, so I had
no intentions of seeing it.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I grew up with Tron, and so I love O. G. Tron.
I love what's his name who plays the main character,
Jeff Bridges. Yeah, he's phenomenal. When he came back. And
the second one, it was still cool. But this is
so far separated from Tron itself that Tron isn't even
(24:12):
in the movie like at all. It's just like, what
are we doing here? Two hundred and twenty million dollar
budget for this thing that nobody wanted.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Yeah, it flopped.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
I mean I heard nothing but wonderful things about the
visuals and the sound. And you know the reason a
lot of two of the main big reasons you actually
go to the movies, and you know it still didn't
want to go it, did you know when you talk
about Tron, and I remember going renting the you know,
(24:46):
the big fat Disney box that was at the video
retailer or video rental place, and you know, getting that
it was it was super cool, and legacy was pretty good.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
But this is the Hamagon.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
This is the this is the wild thing about it
is like every every movie that comes out is followed
by ten to twelve fifteen, Who knows how many other
articles or people you know bitching on YouTube about it flopping,
like every movie flops. Yeah, I don't know, sure it
(25:25):
might be it might be flopping versus the budget, right,
But things are all way different now compared to five, ten,
fifteen years ago when these movies were making huge money.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Because we've talked about it with Menti before, Like people
don't want to go to the theaters anymore, like the
movie etiquette is going. You go for these bigger movies
now and people want to just start filming and get
those crowd reactions, like like the Endgame, that's only one Nowadiys,
Like I said meant and I went to go see
(26:00):
Turtles when that came out. There's a whole row of
kids talking and like not even like whispering, but talking
behind us, like I turned on told them to shut
the hell up, Like the etiquette's gone. The movie theaters
themselves don't take care of the theaters, like the seats
(26:21):
rip and which happens over time, but they're not getting
replaced they're not clean the way they used to be cleaned.
It's just the experience as for the movie itself is gone.
So I'd rather save you know, the fifty bucks is
gonna you know, take me to go out to the theater,
even by myself.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Yeah, which is wild that it's there there want us
to go to the movie theaters. But every week they
take the prices.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Go up, right, So I'd rather wait for it to
come out on Disney. Plus, yeah, it's gonna be out.
It's gonna be out like next week anyway.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Yeah, that's the thing to turn around. So but and
that's that's where I get it irritated. And even I'm
not gonna say upset because that's ridiculous, but I get
irritated that everything is just flopping. They're not looking through
the lens of the current climate in cinema, Like everything
(27:15):
is like, oh, well, this movie made, you know, the
whole Superman thing, like Superman made whatever eight whatever, six
seven million, seven hundred million dollars or whatever, and then
Superman this time around made a little bit less and
they're considering it a flop because it didn't beat a movie.
You know, when I think, when I think about the
(27:38):
amount of movies I used to go to ten years ago,
Like I was probably seeing twenty to twenty five movies
a year in theater, And now I'm lucky if I
go to four good.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
That the A list stubs, whatever the AMC has, Like
if I would have had that in my twenties, guarantee
I would be a part of that.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
I had that movie. I just I canceled a couple
like a years ago. But I'm not near an AMC
as closely as I used to be. But yeah, twenty seventeen,
eighteen nineteen, I was, and I had the A list.
I was going to a minimum of two movies a month,
(28:22):
especially during the summertime when all the blockbusters come. I
was going, you know, maybe a couple of times a
week sometimes Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
And you were seeing them multiple times.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Correct, So the twenty five bucks a month I was
paying for it was paying for itself because you could
see up the three movies a week.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
I'm pretty sure I saw X two in theaters like
four times. It was one of those like all right,
I'm gonna just sneak into this other movie here.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
And in general, for me, I think they need to
get rid of the dollar amount that the movie made,
just because now with ticket prices, it should just be
tickets sane, because no matter if it was nineteen, you know,
eighty or you know, nineteen ninety or two thousand, the
number is still the same. Yes, the dollar amount is
(29:10):
increased because ticket prices are going up, but the amount
of tickets they've sold have stayed the same regardless, so
that number won't change. So that that's I think where
you know, they should be counting ticket sales, not dollar amount.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
And that's another thing. So like when in the twenty
twenty when when Black Widow came out straight to streaming,
how did they judge that as a success or a
failure just based on streams, Like because you always have
streams ticket numbers, you don't have prices of anything.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Which is the only way for those streams to be
counted is for you or for me Disney to tell
you how many times it's streamed, which I mean.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
That's can be plated really and they would probably count
what the average household is, what three to four people
the average family household, So they would probably count each
stream as three to four people.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Yeah, which is even more. Yeah, that's wild to think
about because you you see these movies that are five
hundred million dollar budgets, you know, the avatars, the Superman
stuff like that. You see them getting tickets. But if
you're not a big, flashy, multi one hundred million dollar production,
(30:22):
people just don't feel like it's worth the theater experience.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Well, Tront proves that wrong. Well, yeah, Tront is very
flashy and people its own bird.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I mean home setups of you know, fully advanced too,
so you know eighty five inch TVs are not terribly expensive, correct,
So yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
So you and I were just with the mister Mawraths
past weekend and his whole setup. Yeah, I would watch
the movies down there, you know.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Right, a lot of a lot. And that's again my point,
there are so many other options to view things in
such a you know, perfect way. That to call every
single movie a flop when it comes out because it
didn't hit, it's weird.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah, and the these numbers that they just made up,
you know, Oh, if it doesn't hit sixty billion dollars,
it's it's not a hit.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
And some movies aren't even made for that purpose. Some
are just strictly made for award season.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Oh, yeah, absolutely, so the smashing Machine.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I'm sure he'll still get anyway, No need to continue
on that wonderful show rapid. Let's wrap this up here
