Speaker 1 (00:15):
What up, folks, and welcome to the Chayri Culture Episode
one five with myself Deepak returning to the show. We're
finally back. The boys are fucking back. T Bone Spamonious here.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
How are you?

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Man?

Speaker 1 (00:29):
It's literally been such a long time, because last time
we were just talking about this, it was the it
was the act, like the last time you're here. And
I think the last time we talked about that was
back in August. Must have been it was either August
or September. But it's been a long time coming.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
How's it going, man, There's definitely a town and the
boys are for sure back in it. Dude.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
The town hates to see the boys fucking back in.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
It's no shame about it whatsoever. We're back. It feels great.
I've been missing this a lot, you know. But obviously
there's been a little lapse in some Star Wars content
and depending on who you are as a Star Wars fan,
some good Star Wars content. Yeah. End of August, it
was when the Accolytes started. I believe I'm doing I'm

(01:15):
doing good man, you know, again, just taking things day
by day, you know, just trying to endure the insanity
and the chaos. That is work, getting some new roommates
pretty soon, big into the NFL and try to watch
every game every Sunday if I can. I beloved Seahawks
are losing at the moments, which is unfortunate, but that's
all right, and we kind of expected that. But overall

(01:38):
we're doing We're doing well. Man, We're We're we're surviving.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Dude, shout out to sports, dude.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
The sports are fun, man, you know, I I don't know.
It's it's a way to keep my mind off of
things and also like still use my brain in a
way because me and me and some some close people
we definitely be on every game in the NFL every week,
and it's it's a lot of fun. We have a

(02:05):
lot of fun, funny banter when we're doing it, and yeah,
that's a good time. But yeah, just playing playing a
bunch of magic. The gathering still still pretty hooked on magic.
Had the random urge to watch a double oh seven
movie the other night, which one so I don't think
i'd ever seen Skyfall, so it puts I put Skyfall

(02:26):
on and it was okay. I forgot that Javier Bardem
was the fucking villain, and I was also like a
little bit stoned, and I was like, I can't take
Javier Bardem seriously right now. I'm sorry this hair, this
hair is not doing it for me right now. Like
I like he acts great, Like his acting is great

(02:48):
for sure, Like he's like that he's like that joker
or not joker who is the who's the villain in
the first Batman movie with Robert Robert.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Pattinson The Riddler.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
He had kind of like that Riddler vibe to him
a little bit where it's like but not as weird,
but like this dude couldn't go off at any moment
and do some really like psychopathic shit at any moment,
So like he acted really well. It was just like
the hair that I couldn't get past, going from like
no country to old men to this no country for
old men to this, Like I I just fuck him.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
No, Yeah, I agree with you.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Like when you first meet him, he's just kind of
silly and goofy, but then you don't start taking him
seriously until like when he actually gets captured and he
like takes his like mouthpiece out and like his face
gets all fucked up.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
I'm like, oh, this dude's for real.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, I know, and then he just escapes and you're like,
ah shit, you know, cute, you got a problem.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
No, sky Fall's my favorite.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Yeah, sky Fall's my favorite one amongst all of all
of Daniel Craig's Bond movies for sure.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, I would put it up there. I mean, No Time,
No Time to Die. It was really fucking good too,
But I think that was more because it was the
like to send off to Daniel Craig's James Bond. But yeah, no,
it was really fun and I just know the whole time,
Like I said, it was a little bit, a little bit,
a little bit baked. But I was like, man, what

(04:13):
makes like ridiculous secret agent action movies better? Doing it
in a suit? It's just like you're looking like dapper
as fuck, just doing the most ridiculous dress to the nine,
just just stressed to the nines, like you get in
a fresh shave, you know, betting five million dollars in

(04:33):
a you know, I'm thinking of Casino Royal. I'm going
to a different one. But it's because it's just good fun.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Cineroia is sick. That's that's my second favorite of Daniel Craigs.
But yeah, I mean, look like fucking yeah. Yeah, Matt's
Michelson is undeniable in that you know, he's great.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
You know.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
I feel like Bond movies are just as good as
like the villains that are in them. So that's why,
like like overall, like Skyfall is my favorite, like just
as an epic action movie, but I feel like Casino
Royale is just the more like classic like James Bond,
you know, like James Bond doing James Bond shit, No
Time to Die is like yeah, and.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
Even like even some of the Pierce Brosnan ones, you know,
those are those are obviously classics, you know. He yeah,
he played the role really well too. But you know,
Daniel Daniel Creek just kind of like modernized it into
like but yeah, just kind of like modernizing a little bit.
But yeah, I haven't really been diving into too much

(05:31):
other content in terms of screen time recently, been meaning
to start the Dune Show, but I mean, Joe, we're
kind of talking about it earlier this week, and it's
kind of like not big on it, not big on it.
Is it worth it? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
I mean it's only six episodes, so like it might
be a good binge, but I watched the first episode,
I was like, Wow, I'm not I'm not big on
this at all. Yeah, I feel like a lot of
hardcore Dune fans like that, like because I'm pretty sure
it's based off of Frank Herbert's Sons stuff, which I

(06:07):
hear can be pretty divisive. I've never read those books,
so I don't really have a say. I think we
would need to talk to Brian about that one, because
I feel like he's read a lot of like Brian
Herbert's stuff.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
So yeah, just you know, the obligatory like Lord of
the Rings, rewatches you know, oh two times. Lord of
the Rings is officially a Christmas music or Christmas movie
because the Hobbits leave Rivendell on December twenty fifth. Come on, guys,
get with it, Get with the program. Guys probably do like,

(06:39):
you know, another obligatory like first Harry Potter movie, because
it's also Christmas time. So yeah, we'll see. But yeah,
just just move instead steadily along, man, What about you, dude.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
No, there's a thing about watching fantasy during the wintertime.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
I don't know what it is, but like fantasy during
especially those like big like IP movies, are just so
comforting during winter.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah, especially like when you're at Hogwarts, you know, and
you go from a scene where it's like snowing outside,
then you go into like the main the main room,
and there's just like floating candles everywhere, and I'm like,
oh my god, foods just like on one hundred and
fifty foot long tables. It's just it's such a cozy.
It's such a cozy vibe.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Like it is an extremely cozy vibe. You're right, yeah,
but no, I like, like the extended cut of the
Lord of the Rings movies on on Max is just
like those are like my go to comfort hangover movies.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
No, for sure, for sure.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
No, But I've been I've been doing I've been doing good.
I'm still watching a ton of stuff, like even though
I'm not like recording podcasts about it, Like still go
into the movies like once or twice a week. We
just talked about Daniel Craig. I want to quickly mention that,
like I had a chance to go to his screening

(08:02):
of his newest movie called Queer, directed by Luca. I
always mess up his name. It's like Luca Guada Gino
or something like that, or Guada, Guada, I'm not gonna
even try. But Daniel Craig is excellent in the movie,
and the screening was special just because like after we
watched the movie, got to sit around and do a

(08:23):
little Q and A with Daniel Craig himself, so I
saw him like straight up in person, which was insane
because like he's he's just like such a like posh individual,
you know, like super super proper, Like I don't know,
it was just really cool to just like see him
like and I had really shitty tickets to like the movie,

(08:47):
to like watch the movie itself because it was like
very much like in the front row, but I had
an incredible view of Daniel Craig, so, like it was
pretty cool. I've never gone to like a like a
Q and A with the actor like that, but here
in New York, and I'm sure they do screenings like
this in LA as well. When it comes around to
award season, like there will be like Q and a's,

(09:09):
either like with the cast of certain movies that you know,
people want to be recognized during award season, they'll do
like qun A's with the cast, or it'll be like
Q and A's with the director or whoever you know.
So that was really cool like that. That was like
a really like a like a pretty cool highlight of
the year for me. But what else like earlier or

(09:30):
well not not today, but yesterday, it's like the ten
year anniversary of Interstellar.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
So I got.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
To see the film for the first time in Imax,
in seventy millimeters Imax, which is like the huge giant Imax,
and that was fucking nuts. I feel like I was
baptized by the gods of cinema during the during the
no time for caution scene or during the docking scene
if like you know, probably more commonly known as the

(09:59):
dockings scene. But that shit is crazy to see in
a movie theater. Once the scene is over, it's almost
like you want to cheer, like it's a fucking Marvel movie.
So like, Interstellar is great in theaters, and that show
was just hard to it was. I was really happy
to see it just because it was insane to get
tickets for like almost every showing was just sold out.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
So yeah, I was pumped on that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
No, I mean a lot's happened since uh this the
last summer recorded a podcast, but you know, got to
keep it pushing, you.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
Know, dude, And you know, speaking of Interstellar, I also
just I was randomly watching. You know, YouTube algorithm can
be a little crazy, but normally I feel like, at
least my YouTube algorithm usually gives me some pretty good videos.
And there's an interview with it's Matthew McConaughey and Burt
Kreischer and uh, Burt Kreischer, Yeah, Burt Kreischer, and yeah,

(10:59):
Burke Chrescher. The guy that's like, I will never not
drink drink.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
I will always have a drink in always like watching
the sunrise with the cocktail, watch the sunset with the cocktail.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
I'm on, I'm on a flight. Hey can I get
you something to drink? Double Jack on the rocks, lots
of rocks, lots of rocks, lots of rocks. So Bert Kreischer.
And then the guy that does the voice over in
like a bunch of a cartoon, like adult adult cartoons.
I can't remember his name, but like, I'm watching this

(11:30):
interview man, and it's like, you know how there's this
kind of like generational meme about Matthew McConaughey and he's like, yeah,
I'm just I'm just this cool guy. You know, he's
the cool guy. Dude, He's the fucking cool guy. He
is such a fucking cool guy. Like, oh, he's like
just because he recently published a book, like I think

(11:50):
it's his first book, and like just that I haven't
read the book. But the things that he has done
in his life not to do them to be cool,
but just he did them because he wanted to do them,
and it just becomes cool. It's like, God, damn, you're
so cool man. Yeah, how how can I it's kind
of want to be like you because I never will

(12:11):
be like you, but like how can I do things
like you? You know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Like how can I be cool like that? You know? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:18):
And it's like the more you try, the less you're
gonna be. Man. It's like, if anything weird ever comes
out in the news about him, I'll I'll be I'll
be a little disappointed. But anyways, a little tangent there.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Yeah, No, I mean you never know what people in Hollywood.
I kind of just feel like you, Yeah, now you
just have to be on your toes with these folks.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yeah, oh for sure, for sure.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Anyways, we're gonna get into a couple of things a
couple of news topics before we get into Skelting Crew.
I didn't even mention that at the top of the episode.
That's what that's what we're here to talk about, Skelton Crew,
the newest Disney plus Joe in the Star Wars world.
But yeah, so let's before we get into that, let's
just take a quick break forwar se Mett.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
All right, and we're back. We're gonna do a little more.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Not really catching up here, but mostly because, like we
we got an announcement for the next installment of the
Ghost of Sushima series by Sucker Punch. We got a
first trailer for Ghost of Yote, and I'll be honest
with you, this came as a huge shocker to me.
I didn't I was not I was not aware they

(13:25):
were even like thinking of another sequel to this game,
to Ghost of Sushima anyway, and this this was this
is an older announcement before we talked about the trailer. Aaron,
you have just first gone through playing the Ghost of
Sashima game, and when you told me and Brian that
you were like going through for the first time, I

(13:46):
was like, Okay, well I have to replay it now.
So first off, like, how has your experience been with
Ghost Sushima.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
Well, I'm sure you guys could tell my excitement with
how much I was texting you guys about the game
in the group check. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. I was
blowing you guys up for sure. I was like, like,
I know you guys aren't like, like into the game
at the moment. I'm like, I'm still gonna share my
experiences regardless, because it had been a very long time
since i'd played, uh, like just a heavy single player

(14:17):
RPG game, like all the way through. I think the
last one that I finished was elden Ring, and that
took me. It took me a long time to finish.
But it's kind of funny too, because I think that
I got Sekiro and Ghost Tsushima mixed up a little bit,
so I thought I was going into like a really
hardcore game like elden Ring because Sakiro is kind of
that way, but they're both like Samurai games. Essentially. It's

(14:41):
one of those games that you need to play it
at some higher level of an entertainment system, like good TV,
good color quality, decent sound system, like you know, don't
play it with no sound like extremely beautiful, full game.

(15:02):
The first scene like kind of like the tutorial where
like sushim was getting the chores of Sushimi are getting
destroyed by the Mongols, and like you're kind of like
charging through with like the rest of the samurai. I
was like, that's not what hooked me in. I was like, oh,
this is like, oh this is cool. You know, it's
not like necessarily anything new that I haven't seen before
in a game or whatever. But the thing that hooked

(15:23):
me in is when you finished kind of like the
intro to the main story quest and you're riding through
the Heishi grasslands and then you can't control your character anymore,
and then it just does the title of the fucking
game like and then and then the fucking music comes

(15:45):
on and you're like, oh shit, I actually in. I
am in a world right now. And it's like it's
so fun too, because it's it's just a really great
combination of like Jazzanese like history, but also with like
a little bit of a twist to it. Because I
don't necessarily know if this is based on a true story.

(16:07):
I don't know if there's actually some legend out there,
like Japanese legend out there, that's like kind of folklorish
in Japanese culture. But the second I like understood the combat.
The second I understood kind of like how the game
worked and how I could like manipulate the map and
like how I can get percentage you know, completion, and
throughout the game, I was like, oh shit, I just liberate,

(16:30):
liberated the first part of Tsushima. I'm going full boor
into the next part. And I just like did everything.
Was trying to one hundred percent of the game, like
riding your own haikus and you know, the music's coming
out of your controller and like petting some dog or
some foxes and then just going into like a Mongol
camp and just dropping smoke bombs and like slitting everybody's throats.

(16:53):
It's just like you go from like peaceful to violence
very quickly. And I don't know, man, it's just I
would to not spend too much time like talking about it.
Like for me, it's a five out of five game.
It's it's like elden Ring in its own way because
it has kind of the elements of like Legend of Zelda,
where you can go to the shrines and you have

(17:13):
to kind of like figure out the puzzles essentially, like
you gotta find your way to climb up to find
the shrine, like so many different side stories you can do,
like tom Way, since the Ishikawa's side story is so good,
Masaco story is amazing. All of those, like three like
secondary long quest lines were just like none of them

(17:37):
ended the weight that I thought they were going to.
They all blew my mind. I was like, there's no
way this is how this fucking story ends, especially the
one with Ishikawa where you're like hunting tom Way like
his student, and she just like jumps off a cliff
and like you're like did she just kill herself or
like what's happening? And then you help uh not? Masako

(18:03):
starts with the y Yuna. You help Yuna liberate Yaikwa.
That story is freaking amazing, Like there's so many things
to get invested into, but it's not like too much.
It's just like the perfect amount of content in a game,
because you can blow through the story in like twenty
hours or something, but if you do everything, you could
probably spend like one hundred hours and then do Ekey Island.

(18:24):
You know, such a good time. It is such a
good time and it's perfect timing to you because short story,
like my roommate rest In, like he had a TV
in his room, but then it was actually his brother's TV,
and his brother came to like take his TV back,
so Restlin didn't have like a place to put his
PlayStation anymore, so he brought it downstairs like the main TV.

(18:47):
I was like, oh shit, hey, can I like you
might if I like make an account like play some games,
and I was like scrolling through the games, I'm like,
oh shit, like I haven't played Ghost of Tsushimi yet.
It was all over from there. I'm like, damn, this
is so worth the sixty bus or seventy because I
bought the deluxe version. But so much fun, so much fun.
Well what about you, because you've you've played it like

(19:08):
what one and a half times now, ish.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
I've only ever played it once, Like I've only ever
played it once, and like like beat it tried like
doing one hundred percent thing, but I don't think I
ever did one hundred percent thing. When I was living
in California, like there were games that where I would
be obsessed with and I know I'm obsessed with it
because anytime i'd get back from work, like that's the
first thing I want to do, and like over the weekends,

(19:32):
it's like okay, it's the first thing I want to
do when I wake up, and like, oh, I have
to go to the gym, but I'll probably play this
for like a few hours and like I would like
time when when it's time to play, you know, Ghost
of Sashima is that game for me, and I just
want to like go back to the to the Yarikowa
point that you were that you had brought up like that,

(19:54):
Like that's the highlight of the game for me, when
you go to yarikaw when you learn the ghost stance,
because the ghost in is like the.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Most fucking Ghostsushima.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
It's it's the most brutal part of the game, and
like you just get so pumped and like after you
learn the stance and then you like rally all the
people that you brought with you seari Kawa, it's like
it's it's sick. Even red Den Redemption has like has
a moment like that in the game where you're just
like so fired up to be playing. Maybe we'll talk

(20:24):
about that someday. A lot of the stories, like even
when you try to like rescue like some random NPCs
or something, or like go on those like small little
side quests that I have, like.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
The question mark on it. It's fucked up.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
Like none of it, like there's a good percentage of
it is like not like feel good stuff, you know.
Like I remember this one storyline where like this guy
left his family behind because Mongols had like you know,
like raided his house or something, and is like he
ran away from his home and then like you run
into him on the road. He's like, hey, I left

(20:57):
my family, but like Mongols showed up, like can you play.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
He's helped me.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
Then you go to the house and Mongols are still there,
but his entire family's dead.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
Yeah, it's heavy. There's another one too that sticks out
to me a lot, like in terms of those random
side quests. It's one where like you go to one
of like the the watch towers and there's just like
dead bodies on the road and there's like two ladies
that have like a cart full of something. I'm sure
they're like you know the trend it, they're like farmers
or something. But she she pretty much tells you like

(21:28):
I don't know, like what's happening, you know, to these
people they're dying for some reason and we can't figure
it out. And then you pretty much learned that the
Mongols like used poisonous mushrooms to like poison the water supply,
and so like all these citizens were drinking poisonous water
without even fucking knowing it, and you're like, okay, well,

(21:51):
holy shit. You know, you're like, okay, well, the Mongols
are really fucked up. But then you're also kind of
like throughout the game, like okay, the Samurai were kind
of fucked up too, Like it's it's it's very well
done because like you're obviously not siding with the Mongols
and you're in your head, but there's times where like
should I even side with the Samurai either, because you're

(22:11):
going through Gin's journey because Jin's kind of like this rogue, right,
He's like yeah, sometimes he's like fuck the samurai. Cola, bro,
I'm fucking doing. What I gotta do is save save
my save my homeland, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (22:24):
No, And like I like that you brought that up
because you also mentioned something about Eke Island and that
that's when you really like, that's when that DLC really
leans int of like well, the Samurai were also like
like conquers, you know. Yeah, no, they they were doing
the same ship that the Mongols were doing on Eke Island.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
And uh.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
And I really appre like I haven't done the Eke
Island DLC yet, Like I'm kind of in the middle
of it and I'm doing I'm doing the Ekey Island
stuff for the first time like right now, Like I
really like that. It's like I feel like the whole
like message behind that is just like leaving the world
behind then like your parents found it, like leaving it
in a better place, you know, trying to make amends.

(23:07):
Like that's the whole deal about the Eke Island storyline.
I think that's pretty you know, it's a lot for sure,
Like he's trying to like right the wrongs of like
whatever his dad did.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
It's awesome.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
I'm really liking the Eke Island storyline so far. And
I it's it's fun too, because like I'm like barely
halfway through the game, like i just liberated the bottom
half of Sushima. Now I'm like in the middle, like
not beating the game yet and doing an Eke Island
in the middle.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
It's it's fun and it's hard.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
I'm sure it's hard to Yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Oh yeah, it's challenging for sure. And now I can't
leave the island either, Like I can't leave it until
I'm pretty sure until I beat it.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
So yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
I just hope I can keep all this stuff that
I'm finding on Ekey Island when I go back to Tushima. Yeah,
because you learn this new ability on Egy Island where
your horse can like charge at enemies. Yea, and I
that's really fun and helpful. But you also get like

(24:14):
this horse armor where like your horse has like horns
and shit, and it just increases the charge ability to
like completely murk people and oh yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (24:25):
Just fucking stomp over people. It's so fun.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
So I hope Yeah, no, when once the once the
DLC is done, once I'm done at Egle, and I
hope I can keep all that stuff. I kind of
feel like they won't let you do that back on
in the regular game.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
You know, Yeah, how did you end the game? Did
you uh? Did you did you kill Schimra Schumra or
did you let them live?

Speaker 1 (24:48):
I think when I first played it, because I like,
in my second plate there, I haven't beat it yet,
so I might do things differently, but I'm pretty sure
on the first time I played the game, I killed him,
mostly because I was so like roped up in like
doing the role play and like, no, this is where
Jin's arc is supposed to end, his honor is supposed

(25:11):
to end here, and he's like trying to leave the
Samurai like traditions or whatever.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, and his own story, and I just, yeah, I
just killed him.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
It's kind of ironic too, because honestly, the honorable thing
to do is kill him like he wanted. He wanted
to die a warrior's death, so like leaving him alive
was honestly the pitiful or not even pitiful, like the
shameful thing to do, like in terms of the Samurai code,
which is what I did. But I did it because
I like, once you get to that point in the

(25:42):
game and you're doing all the flashbacks between between Schimura
and Jinsakai, you're like, oh shit, because you're you're leading
up like after like Shimura slaps you in the face,
and like the like the second act, you're like, i'm'll
remember that. Shit, I'm I don't remember that he ain't

(26:02):
slapping nobody ever again, but like you kind of grow
to feel like Shimura's an antagonist and like an enemy.
But that's from your perspective. But then once you get
to the end of the game, you you get the
flashbacks of Schimura and Jin's relationship and like how much
Shimura actually like looked after Jin and like the quality

(26:24):
of a relationship that they had, and you're like, fuck, man,
can I really kill him? Like I couldn't kill him.
I just like I felt that like shred of like
mercy sympathy, Like I just couldn't do it, you know.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Yeah, and I I've asked you this a couple of times.
But like, depending on which which one you go with,
you get a different color of ghost armer. M So
that route you should have gotten the red one, right,
It's like.

Speaker 3 (26:57):
It's like it's like a like a brownish red like
yellow old ah, so clean.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
It's yeah, So when you do the other one, you
just get a completely white, like white ghost armer.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
That's kind of sick too, though, damn yeah yeah do that.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
No, White's cool. Yeah, I really like white.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
I like, uh, I like how because there's the white
dye merchant. I don't know if you've ever ran into
the white dye merchant in the game, like death in
this world, like the the way they see death is
someone cloaked in white, like, not cloaked in black. I'm
pretty sure that's the way they look at in the
game anyway. So I'm always dressed in white, damn.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
But you also know there's a black die merchant too, right.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Oh yeah, no, I've seen a black guy merchant. But
but the white being dressed in white looks way cooler
than just the black.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah, no, I agree, unless you're in the like the
Ghost armor.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
That oh yeah, you got you gotta be in all black.
You gotta being all black if you're in the Ghost armer.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
My my like second favorite is probably the Sockeye Clan
armor fully upgraded with the white and red. That shit
is with the nile horns and it has like the
kind of like Roman like kind of chain mail to it.
That shit's that's it's so clean, it's it's it's so nice. See.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
Wearing the Soakeye armor on Ekey Island has been the
most helpful so far, just because like when you do
the standoff, like usually if you have the standoff like
maxed out, you can only kill three people at most,
but with the sock eye armory, I think you can
kill like up to five and.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
That gives you like full resolve. So it's like you
can just like stand off, kill five people, go into
Dance of Wrath, go into ghost Dance, and then if
you have any resolve left, you can what is it,
the lightning strike where you like Heavenly strike, have Heavenly Strike.
That's that's it's super such a fun combo. And then
if you need anything else, you drop a oake bomb

(29:00):
and then you just chain assassinate everything and before you
know you've killed like fifteen people. You know, yeah, damn,
it's it's so fun.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
The gameplay is so fun, Like once you memorize all
those moves too, it's like it's it's a blast, yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
And you can make it like feel theatrical, you know
what I mean, Like you can just do the whole
like just heavy attack things and just stagger them and
like make it feel boring. But you can also like, oh, dodge,
you get the little time slows down for a little
bit when you do the perfect dodge.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
And then the perfect parry too, and then and.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
Then you go into water stands and you back up
a little bit, you know, wait for them to come
in counterattack. It's like it's very on point with the combat.
I think.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
No, the combat is super fun because like you can
they're like because you can do like different builds, right,
Like you can make your guy like like a like
a full on Samurai where you just face everybody head
on and you just take everybody on at once, or
you could build them to like where they're super stealthy.
So like, I think that's like one of the things
that I appreciate the most about the combat is that

(30:07):
like it's whatever style you want to make the game,
you know, and it combines like the best parts of
it pretty much just takes all the fun parts from
Assassin's Creed.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
So yeah, no, I love sneaking.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Around and then yeah, just doing everything quietly not raising
an alarm.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
For me, that's like a little bit of challenging.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
Chime into like the third story of the building just
to like distract everybody and then you sneak up.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Yeah, or or doing a firecracker and like attracting like
five people into one area and that you just chain
assassinate all them, you know.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
Or even better, which is also a great part of
the game is when you go with like you go
back to your original house, like the Sackai clan house,
and it's it's not your grandma, but it's uh. She
was kind of like the I'm not gonna say protector
of the house, but you she goes like sni like
she's going seenile. When you finally get back to your

(31:03):
house and she lets you like you pretty much force
her to make poison darts for you, and you're like,
oh my god, this feels so fucked up. You're using
an old mind to make weapons to make people hallucinate
and kill each other. Essentially, like the hallucination darts are
fucking amazing because if you can do it on one

(31:23):
of the brutes, it's just like yeah, and you just
sit there and you just watch watch them kill each other.
You're like, ah, well, I can go grab a beer
while all this is happening. Fantastic game, Like, like I said,
five out of five, it's it's I can't wait. Can't
wait for the sequel because I don't think the sequel

(31:45):
is going to be like it's not gonna be gin,
but it's gonna be it. It's not gonna be game.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah, I know, so, like I mentioned earlier that like
came as such a shock to me when I saw
this announcement. They're they're doing a sequel called Ghost Yota,
and they've only released one trailer for it, but it
looks just as good, honestly, if not, Like you know,
I'm sure if you have like the latest and greatest console,
like you can really maximize like how the game looks,

(32:13):
but this one looks awesome. I mean your new character
I didn't catch I didn't catch her name, but like
you get to dual wheeled katanas, you get a you
get a fucking rifle, which is kind of fun. And
I think like one of the details they released about

(32:33):
this is that like there's no way that it like
they can like try to connect the story to to Gin,
mostly because I think it takes place like I think
like two hundred years after the Ghost of Tushima game,
So that's pretty fun. I mean, like the graphics that
we saw, I mean we just watched the trailer like
maybe like twenty minutes ago, but though I'm pretty sure
those are gonna be ingrain in game graphics. No, this

(32:57):
game looks sick, and I feel like, uh like just
just based off the music. It has like more of
like a like a Western feel, which is kind of
cool as well. It kind of I don't know if
you ever watched this anime that was on Netflix, but
it kind of just reminds me of Blue Eyed Samurai.
I'm pretty sure Brian's seen it. Folks should check that out.
If you've never seen Blue Eye Samurai's fucking sick. But yeah,

(33:18):
I know, I'm like pumped on the sequel and it
comes out in twenty twenty five, so that that's like
pretty soon. But do you have any thoughts on the trailer?

Speaker 3 (33:28):
No, it looks just as beautiful, or even more beautiful
than Ghost of Tsushima. Love the Cowboy flare to it
with the like kind of you almost kind of heard
a little yeah, well wow, like you almost heard that,
but it had, like you know, it had like an
acoustic guitar in it, which is not a very Javanese

(33:52):
Samurai kind of style of music. So it's like, all right,
we're getting Like it kind of makes me think, like,
are we gonna be able to be even more ruthless
in this game than we were in Sushima? Because I
feel like, obviously you can do like Red Dead redemption
kind of stuff where you could just walk into a
saloon and just shoot anybody in the head, right, Like

(34:15):
you couldn't interact with the world like that. Crazy, but
m it doesn't make me think like we'll would be
able to like have a little bit more freedom when
it comes to like open world interaction and like the
actual world world around us, it looks fantastic. And the
whole wolf thing, like seeing that wolf a bunch of

(34:35):
times throughout the trailer, I'm like, are we gonna get
a pet wolf? Like, are we gonna be able to?

Speaker 1 (34:40):
Like I mean because I think the new protagonist is
just gonna be like because Jin had like a connection
with with the foxes, with the with the the yellow birds,
and if you played Egy Island, like like you learned
that his his mom, yeah, monkeys, his mom had like

(35:01):
a connection with deer giant cats.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
So like there's definitely like.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
This connection there where it's like you know, there's a
connection with the animals, but you never connected with a wolf,
So like that's like, that's that's pretty badass.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
You never even got wolves in sushimi.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
You got yeah, there were no wolves.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
You got like boar like like hogs, essentially, and then
you got bears.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
Well I don't know.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
I don't know either, because like there were no wolves
in like the most northern part of Sushima.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Nope, just bears essentially, bears still deer or elk, and
then there's still yeah, there's still the three same like
wildlife essentially.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
Got you well, yit, I know.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
I'm I'm very much looking forward to gosk Yote and
I'm still very much enjoying Ghosts Sushima. Like once I
beat Ike Island, h yeah, no, I've been. I've been
trying to play, but just been so busy lately. For
the most part, I treat myself to like one hour
of game gaming every night, like yeah, that's all I
can afford, you know, yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
Great, great vibe to Eke Island too. It's more of
like a I get a little bit of Pirates of
the carib being kind of like, you know, a little
bit of that like.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
Coastal, more of like a swash buckler.

Speaker 3 (36:18):
Yeah exactly. Yeah, it's it's it's really nice. It's it's
it's refreshing because you're you've been locked into the landscapes
of Sushima for for a bit.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
So yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
But okay, so when when do you think you'll you'll
play goes to Ssushima over again?

Speaker 3 (36:38):
I mean, whenever I do boot it back up again.
I'm gonna I'm gonna finish Eiki Island first before I
like actually replay it. I'll probably do Eke Island then
go back and like do every single Fox then Haiku
like all that stuff, just to get some some trophies
on the board, you know what I mean. But it

(37:00):
might be a little bit before I like totally restart
the game. I'll probably do Red Dead Redemption two before
I do a second play through, because I know you
and Brian were telling me. Yeah, I've never played Redemption two,
but redever, Red Dead Redemption one was fantastic, cause, like
I mean, I don't know, like I'm I'm trying to
like go into Red Dead Redemption two and just fucking

(37:21):
play some poker, you know what I mean, Just like
do a little bit of gambling, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
Yeah, No, Red Dead Redemption two for when the world
is bigger. It's bigger than Ghost is Shima. Yeah, the
map is insanely big. I think I told you this before,
but like, like the game still looks very good visually.
The Ghost of Sushima colors just like just are a
little more vibrant. But it doesn't mean that like Red

(37:47):
Dead Redemption looks dull, like it just very much looks
like like you get you would see this in the
real world.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
You know, it's probably much heavier on like the reds,
the oranges, the yellows, the.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Yeah, like natural natural colors, you know. Yeah, yeah, once
once you.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Start up that replay, I'm definitely in for another replay
Red Dedmond dempshit. Like there there's no other game where
I'm like happier to replay it beside goes Ashima, of course,
that's like very fun. But like I think Red Denver
Dmpistry is probably like one of my favorite video games ever.
Like I can I can play it like all day long,
like the other day, I uh, well, not the other day,

(38:26):
but maybe like a month or two ago, when I
was going through a replay of Red Dead, like I
literally spent like maybe like three or four hours just
hunting and fishing.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Like not even blaming the game.

Speaker 1 (38:38):
I was just like doing random side shit just because
like of course, like you get like random trophies for
like hunting and fishing, but like I was like, dude, no,
I need to get this fish my resources.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
Bruh, Brude.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
I Like I need a like I need a perfect pelt,
Like I need to kill this animal so I can
get a perfect pelt so that I can get like
this upgrade for for the that I have on But yeah, yeah,
I mean, And.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
I would say, if I could get the game on
PS four, which can't, I would do Star Wars Outlaws
before anything else. But it's not on PS four, so
it's not an option for me.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
But alrighty, let's move on one more thing before we
get into Skelton Crew. We got a little bit of
Mando and Grogo news the movie that I think is
coming out in twenty twenty six, Jeremy Allen White. Folks,
if you have watched I think it's Shameless that he's
also in Shameless or The Bear, which is one of

(39:43):
my favorite shows. He's great and The Bear out of
Like it was the most random piece of news that
I'd ever read my entire life, Like I would never
put these two things together in a sentence. But Jeremy
Allen White is joining Star Wars to voice Rata the Hut.
If there's anybody out there that watches, like, you know,

(40:05):
the Clone Wards show. He was like a little baby
in in the Clone Wars, like a little like a
little Uh there was a word for it, like a baby.
There's a word for baby hut. This is just it's insane.
It's really crazy to me because I'm like, why is
Jeremy Allen White and Star Wars vote voicing a hut?

(40:26):
And I just hope that, like there are rumors that
this hut is gonna have like a buff look to it.
But the Mandoin Grogan movie just like intrigues me more
and more with every piece of news. But uh, do
you know anything about Rota the Hut? Like I feel
like like that there there's been some episodes where like,
well not episodes, but there's like pictures of Ahsoka holding

(40:49):
Rata as like a little baby.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
I mean, the only thing I know is I know
that he's appeared in like a couple of the Clone
Wars episodes, especially the arc where cad Vane breaks Zero
the Hut out of prison on Courissant. There's like that
whole heist or whatever. I know that Ratza shows up
randomly in that nothing like substantial. I mean, it's not

(41:13):
a character that I think about ever. Really, I mean
it's not it doesn't hold like substantial, like anything substantial
like in the actual show. You know. It just it's
a random like it's not even it's a random appearance.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
Yeah yeah, no, I feel that. No, that like this
is totally random to be but you know, hopefully it's fine.
I mean, uh, like his involvement in the in the movie.
I guess it just has to be like Rata is
just yeah yeah, like he's just like the next big

(41:49):
guy after Jaba. I just hope it's not like back
on tattooing, like I feel like huts exist out of
like on other planets. He's said, tattooing, you know, yeah, yeah,
like okay, yeah, that that'd be great if for whatever reason,
Mandoin Groku travel there, you know.

Speaker 3 (42:09):
Yeah, and we've we've definitely seen enough of tattooing, but
we've already seen plenty of other like arid, dry, lifeless
desert planets as well, So we don't need more of
that like aesthetic or or you know.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
No, yeah, please, Like, if there's anything that we need
from Star Wars, it's to leave tattooine in the past.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
Like we've we've done it enough.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
So yeah, now I just thought that Jeremy Ana and
White and Star Wars for to voice a character like
this is extremely funny.

Speaker 3 (42:42):
It's so random, like why why, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
Hopefully they're cooking up something good that's different news. And
before we move on to talking about Skeleton Crew, we're
just gonna take one more break for cements. All right,
we're beck So Skelton Crew, the newest Star Wars show,
following the Aclytes new Star Wars show to hit Disney Plus,

(43:09):
this is an interesting one mostly because like it has
an interesting uh like behind the scenes crew to me,
not just not not the cast, mostly because like the
only person from the cast that I, you know, you
and I really would know or like the average person
would know is Jude Law, which is very cool, Like
Jude Law is awesome. But this is like written and

(43:31):
directed by John Watts, who is mainly known for his
like you know, Tom Hollands Spider Man movies, so he
did he directed all those, so doesn't surprise me that
he can kind of nail the tone of like like
a like a Star Wars show centered around kids, you know,

(43:52):
just because like that those were like his Spider Man
movies to me anyway, where like it was like a
very young going through high school Peter Parker, so he
like kind of like is familiar with this territory.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
But the other.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
Directors, I mean, the craziest one to me is like
if you ever watched everything everywhere all at once, like
Best Picture Winner from I think a couple.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Of years ago.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
The guys that directed that movie are directing episode four.
I think it's episode four, but it's it's one of
the episodes in uh in in Skelton Crew. And then
David Lowry has directed the last couple. I think he
directed two and three, maybe just three. But Aaron, you
would know this just because like we've talked about The

(44:37):
Green Knight on this podcast and he directed that movie,
right BDH, We all know BDH. Jake Schreer if anybody
has ever watched Beef, he's also directing like an upcoming
MCU movie, The Thunderbolts. And then le Isaac Chung I
know him from Minari uh He also directed Twisters this year.

(45:01):
He's also directed episodes of The Mandalorian. So like there's
a good like lineup of directors here, like I would
consider them like indie directors aside from John Watson like
Bryce Styles Howard like behind the camera it like and
on paper it's it's pretty decent. But for the actual
show itself, I'll just start us off just generally for me,

(45:23):
after watching the first two episodes, because it was a
two episode premiere, it feels fresh to me, even though
like it's still during the the Skywalker saga and Aaron,
me and you talked about this, like when we saw
the first trailer, we weren't sure when, like what like
when it would take place, even though like it was
on me like you could have done like a like

(45:43):
we could have done like a Google search, and it's
been like it's been long time known that it it
would take place during around the time of the Mandalorian.
But even though it still takes place like you know,
post Return of the Jedi, all of it still still
feels very original. Find to me, how like the season
one of The Mandalorian felt how that's also like post

(46:06):
Return to Jedi. But it's kind of like, you know,
like all the OG characters, like the Skywalkers are still around,
but you're not really thinking about them, like you're not
thinking about how like, oh, like, when's Luke gonna show up?
So I definitely like that it has like like it's
built like its own little immersive world and justifies its
experience enough to where you're not really wanting to see

(46:30):
those characters even though you know that they are like
out there somewhere, if that makes sense. I also think
the the kids are pretty good. Like shout out to
Neil Nation because Neil is fucking hilarious. Here's a little
random question that I have for you real quick. How
do you how do you feel about toys existing in

(46:51):
the Star Wars world and those toys are of like
Jedi and Sith, because that's something that I don't think
I think I've I've seen to and Star Wars of
like Rebel pilots, but I've never seen like Jedi toys,
like kids playing with Jedi toys.

Speaker 3 (47:08):
Great question. I don't know. I guess it because I
guess I'm trying to think about it in terms of
like like what were the toys that I grew up
with as a kid, you know, And it's like, okay, well,
the first thing I think about is like action figures
or like what were the action figures that I had?
Like they were always some sort of like non fictional

(47:28):
or fictional thing, right. It was always like something fictional
from a movie or a show or whatever. So in
that sense, it makes me think of like do the
people on at at in or like at least like
the Commons like Civilian is this just not known to
them that, like you know, like Jedi, like do exist
and like that, you know.

Speaker 2 (47:50):
Like there's a war going out on outside, like you.

Speaker 3 (47:53):
Know, like the death started blew up and you know,
Luke Skywalker's thing, and like I'm like, I I like
it because it I'm sure we'll talk about this, you know,
at some point. But it's like it gives you a
certain grounding for the show. It's like, Okay, we're we're
no longer tethered to jet like Jedi the for Sith
like this great epic sci fi slash fantasy world like

(48:17):
we're in We're we're in the same world, but it's
it's a different You're in a different space within that
world essentially. No.

Speaker 1 (48:24):
Yeah, and the world of ad in itself is already
like original in itself because you'd never seen like a
like a Star Wars planet that felt like it was
like the suburbs.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
Its Star Wars suba for sure.

Speaker 1 (48:39):
And that's the other thing that I really like about
it as well. It's like it feels like this has
been reiterated like many times before, but I mean, I'll
say it again. It it feels like those like Spielberg
movies from the nineties. It feels like the Goonies, Like
like I I mentioned this to like you and Brian,
but it feels like, you know.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
When there's a couple of shots in one of the
episodes that makes you feel like you're in ET.

Speaker 1 (49:06):
So no, I'm really enjoying it so far, and like
one of the cutest moments, like in episode one is
just like when Neil and Whim pretend a duel with lightsabers.

Speaker 2 (49:19):
You know, I'm just like, we've done that.

Speaker 3 (49:22):
We've done that many times. And even before that, it's
like this old lady who's walking their dog. You know,
it's like this like mutant creature, but it's like their
form of a dog, you know what I mean. But
it is because that scene kind of bumps up, like
the intensity a little bit obviously thinking about it from

(49:43):
a child's perspective, like like oh shit, Like the music's
getting a little bit darker and a little bit more ominous.
Now they're you have this brief feeling that they're actually
not friends when they like start to pretend duel, you
know what I mean, Like that's how good they're pretend dueling.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
Is no, Like when Neil said like, oh, you shouldn't
be here, I'm like, oh fuck, is Neil like a is.

Speaker 2 (50:02):
He a bully? Like does he bully? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (50:06):
I know so, so yeah, that's really fun. It's just
really charming. Not only that, but before that, there's like
the opening sequence is like there's like there they have
their own little version of a quote unquote opening crawl
and they're talking about how like hyper space routes are
like still has like a ton of piracy, even though

(50:28):
the world is like even though the like the galaxy
is safe like under the under the order of the
New Resistance or whatever. And I really like this opening
action sequence just because like kind of felt like a
like an homage to a New Hope like that that
opening sequence, you know, with with the Vader and the
Stormtroopers like boarding Ley's ship to get whatever information they needed,

(50:52):
and Brutus is just also super cool, like like a
New Wolf alien character in Star Wars you know what
I mean, star Wolf.

Speaker 3 (51:01):
That Star Frock, Star Fox. Yeah, yes, but I'm I'm
I'm here for it, dude. I love it because you're
already in that frame of mind, like you know the
things that Like it makes me feel that like everybody
who was involved in producing the show not only have
like the new generation of kids that they want to

(51:23):
have watch Star Wars in mind, but a little bit
of you know, a little bit of our generation, you know,
like it's there for sure.

Speaker 1 (51:31):
No, And I like how you said that too, because
it is a really good like kids show to grab
a new generation of Star Wars fans, you know, Like
I think it. I think it really works, Like tonally,
the show knows what it wants to be, and I
think it works so far. They're they're doing it pretty
well so far. Like I think there's like enough seriousness

(51:52):
there with Jude Law's character especially, and we'll we'll get
into talking about like more about him in a little
bit general thought, I think it's it's pretty solid so far.

Speaker 2 (52:01):
But what do you think?

Speaker 3 (52:03):
Yeah? No, and then even with the opening scene too,
like there's a little bit of like Hondo Anaka in there,
you know what I mean like sympiracy where like somebody
told the whole crew and the captain like, hey, we're
gonna get it strike Rich here and turns out to
be one singular credit in the entire like storeroom. You know,
it's very like I'd say that seems a little bit

(52:24):
more serious to like what we're used to with Hondo
Anaka and Clone Wars, but it has a little bit
of element to that. And then like my whole thing,
like going into the show is always like this was
always about expectation, like how do we set our expectations?
And it kind of ties into what you were saying
about like the identity of the show. I personally went

(52:45):
into the show knowing exactly what it was supposed to be,
and the show is doing exactly what it was supposed
to be and what it is supposed to be. Like
it it has an identity and its self actualizing as
like I said, a way to get the newer generation
into Star Wars. And also you know, have like anybody

(53:08):
of any age who does like Star Wars be able
to watch it and get some sort of like entertainment
value out of it, and it's done that so far. Yeah,
I love the suburbia element to it. The whole first
episode is just the most classic like goonies type thing
like Ah, the main character kid is supposed to take
a very important test at school, and then it's late

(53:29):
for the test and takes a shortcut, and then when
he took the shortcut, they fell onto potential treasure when
he's been thinking about the stars his whole entire life
and wanting to be a Jedi and loving the stories
about things beyond his reality. And it's like it nails that.
I mean, it nails that right on top of the head.

(53:50):
And I love the whole like little like like instant
kind of like grade school kind of like I don't
like this girl, but man, she's really cool at the
same time too, you know, like that kind of like
feeling well, uh, what's his name? Whim Whim Whim is
like not in detention, but he's like in the in

(54:11):
the school hall and he's like, hey, what are you
in for? It's like they're in prison or something. You're like,
you know, this is like it, it's cute, it's charming,
it's it. It's hard to hate as as a project,
like not like I'm trying to hate it. But you know,
you know, obviously there are people out there that you know,
don't don't like it at all, But I love Like

(54:34):
everybody has like a bike, but like their bikes are
like speeder bikes, and their speeder bikes to our bikes
are like, dude, those speeder bikes are so much cooler
than our regular just like bikes in the world. This
is this is this is so cool and like the
first episode really does, at least for me, it does
make you feel like you are a kid in the

(54:56):
Star Wars universe, but you're not a kid born with
the you know, the the Clone Wars and the Empire
and the rebellion, like right in front of your face.
It's like you're very distant from this and none of
that exists except like folklore essentially, like the Jedi are
like folklore to the kids, at least in the first

(55:18):
episode essentially. But I love it. I love it. I knew,
like I said, I knew exactly what to expect going
into the show and having a blast watching it. It's
not It's not a show that I'm like, oh my god,
I'm gonna watch it the second it premierees, like I
did with Mandalorian, right, But I'm always gonna have a
fun time watching every episode.

Speaker 1 (55:37):
I'm definitely like intrigued enough by it to where I like,
I like want to see where it's going, especially like
an episode one, it's it's the classroom scene where they're
talking about like, oh, like you have to take this test,
like the test you were mentioning. It's like where this
test like determines these kids' futures. Yes, ats and when

(56:00):
you when it's time to like join what they call
the Great Work. And I think that's something that's like
pretty mysterious in itself, just because like and this is
something that they that kind of gets brought up in
episode three, but like no one really knows what the
great Work is, you know, and the planet of at
ad In like you find sound in episode two, it's
kind of like no one knows that at at at

(56:23):
Adam exists. So it kind of reminds me of like
like how the suburbs in real life like kind of
exist in their own bubble. You know.

Speaker 3 (56:32):
That kind of reminds you of Claremont a little bit,
doesn't it.

Speaker 1 (56:35):
It really does, like Claremont exists in its own bubble,
and it just kind of makes me feel like the
adults on at ad In know more than they're letting on.
They're definitely trying to hide something like there's there's almost
it's it's not like super sinister. I don't even know
if it's like super dark either, but it has to
do like there's something about money that is being hidden,

(56:58):
you know, in.

Speaker 3 (56:59):
Corruption, in somewhere in this whole thing, for sure.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
But it doesn't like creep you out, but it's just
kind of like it's it's eerie, you know, And I
kind of feel like that kind of feeling is like
in the suburbs in real life, Like something feels like
a little off about this suburb sometimes, you know, depending
on which neighborhood you're in, you know.

Speaker 3 (57:18):
So yeah, it's kind of like I don't know, like
I mean, there's elements of like some and or to
it where it's like, oh shit, we're just here to
do this thing over and over and over again to
produce something, but not all of I mean blenand Or
they're aware of that, and it's obviously a prison, but

(57:39):
it's also like y am, I am I also are
we just programmed to do the same thing over and
over every day to what end kind of thing, you know.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
Yeah, but that's a little more subtle. So, yeah, the
planet of ad In is like an intriguing mystery compared
to you know, The Acolyte. Unfortunately, like I don't want
to dunk on the Acolyte anymore more. But like the
Skeleton Crew show is like the mystery is like already
like way more interesting than whatever they act like wanted.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
To do, you know.

Speaker 3 (58:10):
The second the last scene of the first episode ended,
I'm like, dude, I'm already more hooked into this than
I was for the entire Accolte show. I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
So yeah, episode one, and they really threw us for
a loop in the trailers just because I genuinely thought like, oh,
there's a Jedi temple on this planet, you know, and
it ends up being like, that's not a Jedi temple
at all.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
It's a spaceship.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
Yeah, And I think.

Speaker 1 (58:33):
That's kind of cool too, that that that very much
feels like some shit that you would see in like
a ninety Spielberg movie, you know, like a hidden spaceship
in the forest.

Speaker 3 (58:42):
There's also the commentary from the main female protagonist, I
forget her name, Fern Fern. Yeah, she pretty much says, like, No,
this is like a this is like a like a
tomb essentially, Like this is where there's technology in there,
but it's like cursed or whatever. You know, it's like
kind of like the Goonies kind of thing. They both

(59:05):
have their idea of what this buried treasure is essentially,
and it turns out to be kind of both of
those things so far, like from both of their perspectives. Right, No,
it's not a Jedi temple. It's a little bit of
a tomb. There's also something about this ship that was
buried there. The ship belongs to somebody important, Like you

(59:25):
have to believe that, like it, Yeah, it has to.

Speaker 2 (59:28):
Have people died, and they tried to keep people dying
for a reason.

Speaker 3 (59:33):
Yeah. Like the skeletons are there, like they they almost.

Speaker 2 (59:39):
Bro wait, the Skeleton Crew, the Skeleton Brawl.

Speaker 3 (59:46):
They almost said the name of the show. Almost. Yeah, No,
it's it's it's really fun. Oh, don't touch that button.
Of course he's gonna touch the button, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Anyways, that's all I have on episode one. Do you
have anything else on episode one? Anything else that jumped
out to you?

Speaker 3 (01:00:02):
No, just that was an actual cliffhanger, you know. It's like,
well they.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
Know, like right when it ended, and when when when
they went into hyperspace, I was.

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
Like, oh fuck, where are they going?

Speaker 3 (01:00:14):
Yeah, Like it's like main characters like, oh, well, I
wanted to, you know, be beyond the barrier and I
wanted to I want to see the rest of the world.
I want to be a Jedi. Whatever, Well, here it is.
You got what you asked for. You know, it happened
pretty fast if you keep a certain perspective, like if
you're keeping that youth like perspective, like it's very very fun.

Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
Yeah, no, it's a blast. Anyways, let's move into episode two.
The fact that it feels like just because we go
to this spaceport, like this pirate spaceport, right, it feels
like this episode just felt a little closer to Guardians
of the Galaxy than it did Star Wars. I'm not
saying that's like a bad thing. It just feels very different.

(01:01:01):
We had that one pirate from season three, Amando. I
don't know if you remember that pirate when that one
guy with the horns on his face that tried attacking,
which honestly makes me like want to rewatch that episode
just because like like oh, like pirates are showing up,
Like I feel like that was like a low key
intro to this show. Like you find out that that

(01:01:22):
Whim's credits that he got in the first episode from
his dad have extreme value to them. It's almost like
that's that's like gold.

Speaker 3 (01:01:31):
You know, No, it's like more than gold, Like this
is mythical currency.

Speaker 1 (01:01:36):
You find out it's Old Republic currency, yeah, which is like,
you know, very interesting and like at add in, I
guess will have like ties to the Old Republic somehow.
Maybe that's why they're trying so hard to keep it hidden.
But at the same time, it's like why, you know why,
Like why is keeping the Old Republic stuff hidden such
like a big importance And I hope that reveal is

(01:01:58):
like satisfying.

Speaker 3 (01:02:00):
Yeah, like this mystery of why it's such an important planet.

Speaker 1 (01:02:04):
Yeah, but yeah, no, I mean like you get like
a fuck ton more pirates, Like we get another showing
at Brutus, you get an intro to the droid that
was part of the ship.

Speaker 2 (01:02:14):
Now that time happens in episode two.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
Kind of like a Cruiser episode.

Speaker 2 (01:02:18):
It was like all right, it was super short it
was like it was very.

Speaker 3 (01:02:22):
Short, like thirty yeah, like thirty one minutes, thirty two
minutes or something like that. Like it was short. Not
a lot happened, But I'm not upset that it had
that kind of pace to it because it kind of
was just like, Okay, where were they? Where were they
gonna go? And even in the beginning of the second episode,
we didn't know where they were going to go until like,
you know, was it sm SM thirty three, s SB

(01:02:45):
three three or whatever the droid's need three, Yeah, S
thirty three. I love I love how the girl outsmarts
the droid though. It's like she's like, ah, there's no captain. Well,
there has to be a captain, Like she knows this
and she knows how to like manipulate a droids protocol
and she's like, oh, well, I'm the captain now. And
then you have like the little argument that's like no,

(01:03:06):
I wanted to be the captain Alla, Like it just
makes me feel It's like if I was a kid
and I fantasized about these things, this is exactly what
would happen to me in my fantasies, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
I wanted to be the captain.

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
Nah no, that's just be me, but no, and then
we actually got to where we were going, even though
we didn't know where we were going. Spaceport's a beautiful shot.
I do agree. It is a little like uh, Guardians
of the Galaxy Avengers esque. It feels like a little
bit of nowhere, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:03:38):
Like yeah, it's just like yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:03:40):
Like the open face like or not open face played
giant like asteroid that just has like this giant entrance
to it. And then there's like all these inhabitants and
just like tattoo shops, you know, all the food you
can possibly want, and it's like all these random like
places you can visit, like the alien that's like outside
of like the I'm gonna call it a brothel because
it's a brothel for sure. Kind of looks like it

(01:04:02):
looks like a brothel. But there's that's an episode two
right where it's like at the very least, yeah, like
some things are going down inside that bar. It's all red,
Like everything's like just glowing red. That's when that like
the bouncer, like the guard or whatever is like like no,
you children can't be here, what are you guys doing here.

(01:04:24):
Oh we're from matt Atton And that's when you kind
of get that feeling of like, yeah, no, keep talking,
but she knows what it is, but she's just trying
to pretend like she doesn't. Yeah. No, it's just kind
of like all right, flesh out like where we are
a little bit more. And yeah, it's a good episode.
I mean it didn't. First episode definitely had the best rating.
Second episode it's.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
A little more, a little more world building, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:04:46):
Yeah, like fleshed out a little bit more. But no,
I was just I was glad it was short. They
didn't spend too much time doing that. Like, okay, we
get it. They're innocent children surrounded by villainy essentially.

Speaker 2 (01:05:00):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (01:05:01):
So at the end of the episode, like the kids
get into some hyjiinks and they get thrown in the brig.
But this is where we finally get to meet Jude
Law's character. And we saw in the trailer, but uh,
Jude Law using the Force and that rendition of the
Force theme was pretty cool. I was like, okay, cool,

(01:05:21):
like we're we're we got the Force back here. Who
the fuck is Jude Law's character and why can you
use the Force. I think that's That's the thing about
episode one and two is that like each ending was like,
oh fuck, like what's gonna happen next? Who is this guy?
Like I want to know more about this guy? So
each episode ends with like a little more intrigue, you know.
So I think that's that's excellent.

Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
I do. I do love the like the the brig vibe.
It's it's uh, kids being in prison and not understanding
what prison actually means, you know what I mean? Yeah,
like they they don't. They don't understand, like, yeah, okay,
we're trapped, but they don't understand like you guys could die.

Speaker 1 (01:06:00):
Yeah, like they're not really thinking about Yeah, they're not
thinking about that at all. But no, and like when
we're thinking about Jude laws character, like he's definitely like
he was definitely the captain in the opening of episode one,
like he's the one that they mutanted, would you agree?

Speaker 3 (01:06:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:06:18):
Pretty sure they say that in episode three too, But
like yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
Yeah, but why doesn't the droid Okay, so he's not,
but he's not the captain of that ship. He's not.

Speaker 2 (01:06:27):
Yeah, he's not that Droid's captain.

Speaker 3 (01:06:30):
Yeah, but he clearly recognizes that ship. In episode three,
he's like.

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
I don't know if he recognizes the ship, but he
saw it. I think he like more so looked at
it and he was like, wait, that's your ship, Like.

Speaker 3 (01:06:42):
Not that piece of junk.

Speaker 1 (01:06:43):
Yeah, not that piece of junk, like that classic like
oh that's a piece of junk, you know, like they're like,
what a piece of junk?

Speaker 2 (01:06:49):
Yeah. I don't think he was looking like yeah, no,
I don't think he was looking at it like oh, fuck,
that's your guy's ship, what you know?

Speaker 1 (01:06:58):
But okay, so yeah that brings this stepisode three and
pretty much what happens here is like Julo joins the crew.
They're still trying to figure out the mystery of at
ad In and he just joins them because I think
Jude Law's character, I think his name is like john
Nan Nawood or some crazy shit, but he goes by
many names. I forget his his captain name, but like

(01:07:21):
random note like I like how like his his helmet
in the first episode straight up looks like a pirate
at a pirate hat with like a like a face mask.
I do like jud Laus character quite a bit here,
like mysterious, like you want to know more about him.
I love that he had to met up with the

(01:07:43):
kids and then the kids broke them out, well he
broke them out, and then they go to the ship
and the kids are like, no, we need to leave
with the droid and Jude Law goes to like where
all described droids are and he turns on a clanker. Dude,
we got a clanker cameo and the clinkers like ever
on his Like he's like, did we win?

Speaker 3 (01:08:04):
You've been deactivated since the Clone Wars.

Speaker 1 (01:08:07):
Be like, brother, you've been gone for You've been gone
for who knows how long?

Speaker 3 (01:08:15):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
The episode goes on. The escape is like, you know,
it's whatever. They escape, we get another look at Brutus again,
and something he said really interested me. He was like
as they escaped, he's like, oh, put a bounty on
his head and then so that we can find him.
I'm like, oh, dude, this is Mando bait. This is
such a Mando bait. Dude, damn you think it's gonna

(01:08:42):
I I wouldn't be surprised, Like I wouldn't be surprised
if this takes place, Like after I forget when they
said it takes place, but I can see this being
after like Mandalorian season three. I'm not looking for it,
like I said earlier, like after watching the first episode,
like how I mentioned like, oh, the og characters are
out there, but I'm not expecting him. I wouldn't consider

(01:09:02):
ding Jarn like an orgy character, Like he's very much
part of this like new era of Star Wars storytelling, right,
So a din Jarn cameo or even a Grogu cameo,
Like could you imagine Grogu like linking up with these
kids like he fits, you know, like Grogu absolutely fits, and.

Speaker 3 (01:09:22):
And they'll just like marvel over him.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
Like yeah, he's he's so cute.

Speaker 3 (01:09:26):
And then you know Din'.

Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
Oh he's he's a Jedi, he's he can use a force,
like yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:09:32):
And then Den's gonna say some they're gonna have some
allusion to like yeah, he's like two hundred years old.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
So now, like I wouldn't be shocked to see like
a din Jarn, like A didn't a din Jarn and
Grogu cameo, Like that's that's on the board, that's on
my Skelting Crew Bingo card. We're on Mando watch now,
but no, like either Mando or like another popular bounty hunter.
You know, like, what if we got fucking cad Bean.
Well no, depending on the right I think he survived. Yeah,

(01:10:01):
at the end of the Book of Boe.

Speaker 2 (01:10:02):
He did survive.

Speaker 3 (01:10:03):
I think you sure he's alive.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
Yeah, yeah, so cad Bane would be sick. Like if
they just got like another live action Clone Wars bounty hunter,
that'd be that'd be a lot of fun. Maybe like
a more like low key one that'd be cool. Like
I said, the whole thing with Jude Law is awesome.
I like this little alien owl owl character that is
an astronomer and her name is her name is Kim,

(01:10:27):
but it's Kim or Kim yeah, Kim, but but it's spelled.

Speaker 2 (01:10:33):
Like k h y m m. Like that's pretty funny.

Speaker 3 (01:10:37):
Apostrophy thrown into the middle of it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:40):
So uh so, I know they they essentially just had
to like go from one place to another to figure
out how to get to the next spot.

Speaker 2 (01:10:47):
It's it's cool. Yeah, it's like a.

Speaker 1 (01:10:49):
Very like jumping around the galaxy type of type of deal.
But I liked this episode.

Speaker 2 (01:10:53):
It was fun.

Speaker 3 (01:10:54):
Yeah, I will say I was not a big fan
of Kim's I like the idea that it's like a
like a bird creature that's an astronomer, or like a cartographer,
a cartographer and an astronomer essentially, but like there's something
about the animation of her that I I'm like, Nope,

(01:11:15):
it's very jarring. Yeah, And I mean I do like
the kind of like little witty like trusting but not
trusting relationship between Crimson Jack and and Kim. Like I
do like that. And Jula's character does warn the kids like, hey,
before we go in here, you know, we could get
a we could get backstabbed, and they're like, not literally,

(01:11:36):
like metaphorically, you guys have learned when you're older, Like
you know, it's another little kind of fun thing just
to just to kind of remind you, like, you know,
these are kids. What do you think Two major questions
just for like where we are in the show now
with the first three episodes of being Out, what do
you think at at what do you think is really

(01:12:00):
special about that? Especially since we've seen from Kim like no,
there have been like planets hidden away from you know,
forever from the Old Republic, Like what do you think
they're doing on that ad? And that's so like valuable
potentially valuable. Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
I just kind of feel like it's nothing like too deep,
Like just the way that the show is going, it
just feels like it's just supposed to be like a
I mean, at this point in like the Star Wars universe,
you know, I feel like everyone's just kind of looking
for like come into.

Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
Some wealth, especially since they're all pirates.

Speaker 1 (01:12:38):
Like it's like treasure like addings, like the treasure chest
that everyone wants, you know what I mean. And I
don't think it's like anything bigger or like serves any
like more like like purpose. Like I don't know if
it's like a like a hidden It's not like a
like a hidden weapon in the galaxy or something, Yeah,
you know what I.

Speaker 2 (01:12:56):
Mean, like that, like it's like a hidden temple or something.

Speaker 1 (01:12:59):
Yeah, like actual Jedi temple or like something that will
change the course of like like something that will be
important to like whatever happens in the sequel trilogy, you
know what I mean. Like I don't think they're trying
to connect it in that way. I think it's just
like a bunch of like just a bunch of money,
do you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (01:13:19):
Yeah, do you think that they're just like the whole planet,
Like they're just they're like educating Slash grooming all the
children to just be like financiers and politicians. And it's
just like maybe they print like republic dataries on the planet,
like they're just like they're like the Fort Knox of
the galaxy or some shit like Like I think that'd

(01:13:41):
be reasonable, like like because if you're still trying to
establish Slash build the new Republic, I mean that would
make sense. You need somewhere to be like the money
the money manufacturing place of of the galaxy, right or
like of the new Republic.

Speaker 1 (01:13:58):
No, like groom them all to be like politicians and
analysts or whatever like that. That definitely tracks you know,
yeh know, that'd be interesting, But no, I like, for
right now, I think it's just like the one place
in the galaxy where like like whoever gets the wealth
will be the one whoever has the most power, you know,

(01:14:20):
something like that.

Speaker 3 (01:14:21):
Something we ask them along those lines, what do you
do you second question, do you do you think that
Jude Law's character Jod was actually a Jedi at some
point or like how did he learn the Force. You know,
like how did or not not that he learned the force,
but like how did he learn how to like attune
himself with a force?

Speaker 1 (01:14:42):
So I think this is this This is like a
this is where it like slightly would try to connect
to not the not the sequel trilogy as a whole,
but just like the ending of the Last Jedi, like
you know how like like pretty much I think it's
maybe the whole movie tries to talk about how like
you know, everyone has the Force or whatever. Yeah, and

(01:15:03):
then it ends on that one shot of like the
little kid with the broom who like force grabs the
broom or.

Speaker 3 (01:15:08):
Whatever the stables on the freaking the casino pan Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:15:15):
Yeah, see, I know, I like he even says that
it's like like with practice, I was able to learn it,
you know what I mean. I don't think this is
a case where he's like a like a surviving Order
of sixty six.

Speaker 3 (01:15:29):
That's where I was going with it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:31):
Yeah, do you think he's like a surviving Yeah, do
you think he's just surviving Order sixty six Jedi?

Speaker 3 (01:15:37):
I think there's it's possible, but I don't think that
that's the direction that they're gonna go with it. I
think more reinforcing the fact that, like you know, the
Force flows through everything and every one is much more likely.
But it is. But it still would be a little
disappointing to me to know that he or learned that
he wasn't actually a Jedi, because you know, that's kind

(01:16:01):
of what I mean, that's what the main character wants,
Like he wants to be a Jedi. He wants to
like meet Jedi like he I guess it's disappointing from
his his eyes, it would be disappointing from his eyes,
but they could go either way. I guess.

Speaker 2 (01:16:15):
Is there one that you'd prefer to see?

Speaker 3 (01:16:18):
I think just him learning to use the Force and
not having any Jedi training or the Order sixty six
thing would be better because that would be a good
lesson for the kids. Is like, you don't need to
train to be a Jedi to use the force, you
know what I mean? Like you can It's essentially like

(01:16:39):
a like the moral of the entire story would be
you can be whatever you can want to be as
long as you put your mind to it. Like it's
like the most like classic cliche story you can tell children, right,
And it's like you can do whatever you want to
do as long as you put your mind to it.

Speaker 1 (01:16:54):
Yeah, literally, yeah, I know that's like like that that's
like simple enough to where it doesn't complicate like like
lore or anything like that, you know what I mean,
Like because if if it is an Order sixty six
Jedi thing, it's like, Okay, well who is he?

Speaker 2 (01:17:09):
Like how did he escape?

Speaker 1 (01:17:10):
Like it just gets too complicated at that point. Then
he set people's expectations like, well, like where has he
been this entire time?

Speaker 2 (01:17:17):
Like what has he been doing?

Speaker 3 (01:17:18):
Like the whole growth thing will happen again?

Speaker 1 (01:17:21):
Then yeah, so like yeah, no if they just go
like like he taught himself somehow, because it's not like
he like force grabbed and like flew into his hands
immediately you know, try. Yeah, he really had to try.
And then like the next thing he could do that
we saw was like turn off a light switch, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:17:42):
So it's not like he's doing anything crazy, right, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:17:46):
It's not like he's like lifting rocks or like moving
spaceship so.

Speaker 3 (01:17:52):
Or like force pulling an entire speceship back down to
the ground as it's you know, launching.

Speaker 1 (01:17:58):
Yeah, yeah, I think that's all I really have. On
episode three though, it was fun.

Speaker 2 (01:18:03):
Like no, I dug it.

Speaker 3 (01:18:05):
Not a lot to like unpacking a lot of again
deep dives or anything or like yeah, no, it's it's
just pretty straightforward.

Speaker 1 (01:18:13):
Yeah it's an it's an easy breezy watch. But yeah,
so overall for me, like I just mentioned, it's a
fun time, I'm engaged with it. Like I said at
the top of the episode, it feels original, not really
thinking about OG characters except for the possibility of seeing Mando,
Like I don't I wouldn't say it's like the saving
grace of Star Wars either, but it is like pretty

(01:18:36):
you know, decent content, you know what I mean, and
like it does like justify its existence within the lore
and also to want to just quickly mention it is
like this show is the most guilty of the Glove
Shadow allegations and just because like the Glove Shadow stuff.

(01:18:56):
If you guys don't understand the meme, like look it up.
It's it's like a like one of the funniest like
Star Wars memes out there right now. But people have
like called out like like oh this is something like
this is a character from like the Star Wars Holiday Special.

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
I'm like, what the fuck, what do you mean?

Speaker 1 (01:19:13):
And then then like with episode three is like, oh
my god, I can't believe they drop Crimson Jack. I'm like, damn.
Like these are really like deep cut references that everyone's
pulling at it thin air. Well, not things that it's
obviously existed, but like yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
Like how you extract that and the fact that your
mind is looking for those things in some ways, it's
just it's a little minds.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
That's that's next level Star Wars fandom right there.

Speaker 3 (01:19:44):
Yeah, that that is a new a new high or
new low, depending on how you want to you want
to view it.

Speaker 1 (01:19:51):
Yeah, but no, so I think like score over all,
I'll give it like a three and a half right now.

Speaker 2 (01:19:57):
I think it's a good strong start.

Speaker 3 (01:19:59):
Yeah, that's that's kind of where I'm sitting too. It's
like a just around a seven out of ten. So yeah,
like three and a half, three point four, three point six. Yeah,
and it is because you kind of said it's like
it's a new could be like a new start for
Star Wars, Like I kind of imagine it's like Star
Wars has been in kind of like what almost could

(01:20:21):
be like falling forever, if that makes sense, Like it
was going into that, like all right, we're going downhill,
but like if something doesn't happen soon, we're going to
keep falling downhill forever and we don't know where the
bottom is. Skeleton Crew just kind of gave like a
little bit of like a parachute to that falling, and

(01:20:44):
it's kind of like all right, all right, we're we're safe,
we're live, but like how do we get back up
to where we were? And Skeleton Crew is not gonna
do that, but it it We have we have protection now,
like we're like we're okay, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:21:03):
Yeah, it's a it's a safety parachute. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:21:05):
Yeah. I kind of also want to ask this question too.
I mean I want to ask it again once the
you know, the season's over and we talk about the
season as a whole. But like remember when we talked
about the Accolade and we talked about like all the
upcoming things in Star Wars, and I asked, like, what's
going to be like your biggest like surprise as a project,

(01:21:26):
Like what's which one's going to surprise you the most?
I think I said Skeleton Crew, like out of Mandalorian
and Grogu, Skeleton Crew and or season two and then
there's a fourth one, but like where where do you
think we are? And like that kind of like gauging
where that is, Like are we on track for Skeleton
Crew to be like the most surprising one? Or yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:21:48):
No, I think I think we were both in agreement
that Skeleton Crew was going to.

Speaker 2 (01:21:51):
Be the one.

Speaker 1 (01:21:52):
Yeah, because yeah, I remember that because we were like, no,
we can't, we can't include and or season two because
like we knew that one's gonna be a banger. Skeleton
Crew right now is the parachute We're just kind of
gliding and then and Or will like shoot us back up.
Then whatever's next afterwards. I don't know if like maybe
it is Mando and Gurger that comes next after that one,

(01:22:14):
and then maybe it'll like maybe it will be like
we'll run out of rocket fuel when we shoot up,
and then we'll be we'll be using another parachute to
kind of just be evened out.

Speaker 3 (01:22:27):
Well, and like even in between those projects like season
in or season two and Manglorian and Grogu, like Diego
Luna's gonna be at Star Wars celebration Tokyo. Oh yeah,
so that's why that's gonna be cool. So I like,
I guess I'm just imagining we're gonna get some more announcements.
Obviously when that happens that is next year, right, like

(01:22:48):
that is twenty twenty five five or so. Yeah, I
I We're doing okay in terms of Star Wars. You know,
like we you know, as Star Wars fans everywhere, we
have to realize that we are kin. We all we
all love the same thing. We should not divide ourselves

(01:23:08):
and hate on anything that misses your wrongfully predetermined mark.

Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (01:23:17):
I guess that's what I can say. It's fun, It's
very fun, and it's like so like for me, like
in episodes moving forward again, like I kind of already
said earlier in the episode, it's like, yeah, like I'm
not gonna watch it immediately on, you know, like right
when it releases, but it's like it gives me some

(01:23:39):
Star Wars to watch and just kind of like get
me through my week a like enough and also like
satiate my hunger for Star Wars enough as well until
we get to the next project, you know. Yeah, but
that could change, Like I mean, the season could go on.
It could be terrible and or it could be like

(01:24:00):
really good and we'll get some crazy cameos or whatever,
like we don't we don't know yet.

Speaker 1 (01:24:05):
Like I wouldn't care for a Mando cameo. I wouldn't
care for any of cameos really because just because I
feel like they're doing it, like they're doing just fine. Yeah,
I know if they happen, cool, but I'm not like
hankering for it, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:24:19):
You know, you're not hoping for it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:21):
Yeah, three and a half for both of us for
Skelton Crew four. Now I would say that that's it
for episode one thirty five.

Speaker 2 (01:24:29):
Anything else from.

Speaker 3 (01:24:29):
You, well, that sen's about it for me.

Speaker 1 (01:24:33):
That is it, folks. Well, if you made it this far,
thank you so much for listening. Be sure to follow
us on all of our socials, Instagram, Twitter, letterbox and
until episode one thirty six.

Speaker 2 (01:24:46):
Man, this is the This has to be.

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
The last step, like last recording of the year, and
hopefully I'll try to have this out before the end
of the year. So we're closing out the year on
first three episodes Skelting Crew posting it on some Star Wars,
so it's only right that we that we do so
so until the next pod folks happened here.

Speaker 2 (01:25:07):
We'll catch you guys next time.

Speaker 3 (01:25:08):
So peace, peace,
