(00:00):
Hi, this is David Kaye and you're listening to Altered Geek. Geek.
(00:04):
Hello and welcome to...
I think the first episode of Altered Geek for the year.
(00:25):
I'm your host, Steve Megatron Phillips and joining me on this adventure in the geekdom is TFG1Mike.
Would you like me to actually keep your show up to date?
No.
I think you are correct, sir.
I think I'm correct. It's... yeah.
There's been a lot going on, so that's more so why I have not done a new episode.
(00:52):
Not for lack of wanting to, it's just time, effort, busy schedule, being sick.
Yeah, just a ton of different reasons.
We take it all back, folks, because 1.21 gigawatts.
January 21st, you did Steve Megatron returns in 2025.
(01:16):
So this is technically the second.
Yeah, this is the second episode of 2025.
So, yeah, so it's been a little bit since you've been on the show.
Like cobwebs in here.
Yeah, yeah, there's there's cobwebs.
You've, of course, been podcasting like crazy still.
(01:42):
You think? I think I've gone insane.
Yeah, that's normal.
No, dude, this is not normal.
No, it's not normal for me.
Like normal for me is.
The brain broke, brain dead, brain, no work, no more.
(02:04):
No. We're all mad here.
I've been I've been sidelined with I just I got a new 3D printer.
I got the cubic Cobra S1 combo with the Ace Pro.
It's got the dehydrator built in so it can run wallets printing,
(02:26):
which has been nice because I've got old filaments that were
basically hydrated from the air,
which were causing issues on my old ender.
And I sold that back in December, November, December.
I just I got tired of settling with it in this.
Honestly, this printer, I haven't had any issues in the issues
(02:47):
I have had have been operator error.
Majority of them in.
Honestly, I've gotten great prints out of it.
I've I've fully printed my beast machine Megatron.
Which took you 16 years.
You know, yeah,
(03:07):
I'm still working on painting him and then I got to glue him
and kind of like tighten up some of the joints.
But I was able to.
Not only print some of the sections like the cloak,
the cloak alone was going to take 17 hours
for one section of it on my old printer.
(03:29):
It took five or six on this one.
Wow, that's awesome.
And it's been it out fast.
Like I I had to reprint the collar on him three times
because two of the copies were brittle.
And I printed them thicker each time.
So the third time I ended up with a set that was pretty decent and.
(03:53):
I still got to work on printing or painting him
and kind of detailing it, but
overall, it's it's at least printed, which is
a plus, and then I've been printing shelving and display pieces for.
My other figures from my cabinet, so like my
Star Trek stuff I printed Captain Kirk's chair.
(04:17):
I printed some display stands for my Marvel characters.
I printed display stands.
As well as like these.
They're kind of these round pucks.
Of sorts with like a little nub on them and a stick so that you can put the
superhero helmet on it. Yeah.
(04:38):
And so I put those in so I could have their like real faces
for like Iron Man and Spider-Man and Wolverine.
And then.
I printed a couple of stands for my Dragon Ball Z stuff, and then I printed
my Power Rangers shelf was probably the biggest disaster out of everything
because they all just kind of like jumbled together.
(05:00):
And.
I.
I printed some of these display shelves in different colors, and then I printed
the little head pieces for for the helmet so I could put all their real faces on
for the ones that I had real faces because some of them I got used and some
new and different states of repair.
(05:23):
So I was able to stagger them.
I was able to have their weapons out.
I was able to have the helmets on and you know everything else.
So you can actually see everything now.
Which has been nice.
So that's that's part of what has been keeping me preoccupied.
(05:44):
I'm kind of at this lull right now where I'm like I don't really know what to
print at the moment.
I'm about to ship out your stuff.
I was just waiting for the temperature to drop, which it did.
Did.
Because I want to make sure that it makes it there in one piece and doesn't like
break or melt or whatever, because 3D printing like I don't I don't get the
(06:06):
the ABS like stuff that is heat resistant.
So it's.
It should be fine because they're thick enough prints, but.
I still want to make sure that nothing happens in the.
In the.
So I'm like I will package these up and mail them out.
(06:28):
As soon as the weather permits and so like temperatures drop.
So I'll probably mail it the next day or so.
But but yeah, I mean it's this thing spits out stuff fast.
I printed like the spitting disks for like Ian step charge.
I've printed.
I've printed the spitting disks for the covert agent Ravage.
(06:53):
Nice because he you know how they had those little narrow feed on them.
Yep.
And it didn't really fit.
And I was like I saw some free files and I'm like, let's see how this works.
And so I printed it and like it slips on just like a slipper.
Nice.
So I was like, it's funny.
So the cat wearing slippers.
(07:15):
And I was like, oh, I'm going to go get some of these.
I'm going to go get some of these.
And then of course, I've been preoccupied with watching various shows.
You know, Dungeons and Dragons movie with Chris Pine and then Dragon Ball
Dyma, which just concluded in Japan.
And then it was like a 20 episode series that was kind of a anniversary of Dragon Ball.
(07:45):
And they definitely mixed parts of GT in it.
And some fans are whiny and some fans are not.
And I'm just happy it happened and the way that it did.
And I'm waiting for some couple of the figures that are in the show.
So specifically, spoilers for anybody that hasn't seen the ending yet,
(08:09):
although it's been all over social media.
If you've even seen any Googling on Dragon Ball Super Saiyan for Goku and Dima
actually becomes canon.
So interesting, both as a kid and as an adult.
Oh, boy.
So I'm pretty happy about that, so they I've already seen the figures for the
(08:34):
for the kid version, which I'm like, do I get that or do you get the adult?
I already have GTS, but.
Very cool, very cool.
Yeah, no, the end of 2024 was.
(08:55):
So I tried to do.
25 days of Studio 2009.
Actually, no, technically, I didn't try to do that.
I tried to do 31 days of Studio 2009.
I made it to 15.
I mean, that's better than what I did, which was like two.
(09:22):
But so.
So in order for me to do stuff like that in the future, I'm going to have to
like pre produce.
I am already in the midst of currently doing stuff like this.
I'm going to have to pre produce everything.
My buddy Dave Draper, who does the Colombo files with me, which is a bit of
preset show within Studio 2009 where we discuss every episode of the television
(09:49):
show Colombo from the 70s, starring the amazing Peter Falk about the frumpy
detective from the 70s television.
And Dave's just like, I don't care when they release, as long as we can record
them.
So we're recording stuff already.
Like we're in the middle of season three and I haven't even released season two
(10:11):
yet on Studio 2009.
So we're going to be very well set up for the future of Studio 2009.
Just have to make sure I make mention in certain episodes of when certain things
are coming up because season three of Studio 2009 will be during the episode 171
(10:32):
to 178 run of the show, the podcast.
So I got to mention in 175 that we're 25 away from 200.
So you'll have to come up with something that you absolutely want to discuss that
we haven't discussed before for 200, since I usually give you first crack at
major milestones on whatever podcasts you and I do.
(10:56):
Studio 2009, almost at, I mean, we're, I'm in the middle of editing 126, 127,
and 121.
We have to record 128.
But the point is we're doing a Sonic triple threat, triple feature for the
Sonic movies over there.
And then I've got a couple other episodes here and there, here and there.
And then season two of Colombo will air.
(11:17):
And then I've got other things going on.
At some point you and I will get to do shipping.
Wow.
Yeah.
See, that's the other thing, folks.
My brain damage does not let me talk as well as I used to anymore.
Apparently I have tongue tied and twisted myself on podcasts more times in the
last month and a half than I have in the last 16 years of doing this.
(11:41):
Shifting gears is what I was trying to say.
So you and I will do that show at some point, whether it's live as the show
airs or whether it's after the fact.
Somebody said something about Hulu was down recently.
So I think it crashed during the Oscars.
(12:03):
Yes.
Yes.
That's what it was.
Yeah.
And my first thought was to those of us that actually still, I don't currently
subscribe to Hulu.
I wish I still did, but I will eventually again.
My first thought was to those people who still subscribe to Hulu by itself.
(12:24):
You can do it two ways.
You can do it by itself on its own.
Pay for it that way.
Or you can do it as part of one of the Disney bundle options.
And I was going to ask a buddy of mine who said, it's how I found it out.
A buddy of mine said, oh, it's, it's down.
I was going to ask him if it was just the Hulu website that was down or if it
(12:47):
was also the Hulu under Disney plus website that was down too.
Cause I would have been curious to know if it was both or if it was just the
Hulu website.
And of course the Oscars is going to crash Hulu because it's the, oh God.
I don't, I, I, I am.
(13:08):
I've never been a fan of a word show.
I know.
But there's.
Okay.
So the last time I think we majorly talked about the Oscars is the slap that
shouldn't have happened.
Right.
I'm thinking that's probably the last time we talked about it.
(13:30):
And this time we can actually talk about it for an actual amazing thing.
Freaking Fuller man.
Here in Culkin.
At, have you seen that clip?
I saw that clip earlier today.
It's hilarious.
Yeah.
About winning the Oscar.
The daily head was wife.
Wife.
I loved it.
(13:51):
So good.
That is moments like that.
He was like, let's get to work.
Yeah.
Let's get to work on making them kids.
She's like, Oh,
It's moments like that.
It's moments like when key.
Oh God.
I'm going to screw his name up short round.
Oh God.
Sorry.
You who Quan.
I'm sorry.
(14:12):
If I'm wrong.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
You who Quan.
I'm sorry.
If I screwed that up,
but it's like when,
when he got his Oscar or here,
his win,
it's moments like that,
that I love the award show for everything else,
(14:34):
throw it out the frigging window.
Oh no.
I agree with you.
They were doing.
Honors for ledger that it had been the 15 year anniversary since he won his posthumously
or something.
I kept seeing clips of that.
I don't know.
(14:55):
Yeah.
I saw something with him,
with the video camera and yeah,
I understand.
Celebrate the life that the man had and all that and everything else.
But I don't know.
I do some weird things in Hollywood.
So then again,
(15:18):
it's Hollywood.
Hollywood.
That's right.
And only weird.
What else you got?
Well,
I don't know if you've seen this bit of news,
but Shatner was talking about returning to track.
Yes.
I think you pointed that out to me.
(15:39):
I was like,
yes.
Yes.
Not for like a long engagement.
I mean, the dudes.
Yeah.
Dude's 93.
Yeah.
Hit the probability of him,
you know,
living through an entire show.
I'm not saying that to be mean.
I know.
(16:00):
Dude, just old.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I still like him for playing the character and the fact that he's open to it,
especially after that Otoi unification short.
Oh,
oh,
that was.
I actually like that.
(16:22):
I was able,
but I know the lore.
So like to me,
it was an important closure.
And it was giving.
And what made it better to me,
I know that they used AI for it and they used practical effects.
They use like Sam Witwer to play young Kirk and all the various versions of the body double.
(16:46):
Yeah.
Because he's,
he looks close enough.
They got the hairdo.
Like they just did the hairdo on him.
And then they grafted Shatner's face on him and D Hed.
And so he had the mannerisms down.
Like the dude's a huge nerd.
It felt right.
I love Sam.
We're absolutely.
He's awesome.
Like he's the reason why some of the Star Wars stuff that he's been involved with has been good is because he's a huge nerd and he takes it seriously.
(17:12):
And so when they asked him to do it,
you know,
and be a part of it and then Shatner's in it and then they had,
you know,
Robin Curtis playing Savick back and then the various other characters and they had Kirk basically coming back from the dead after,
you know,
after generations.
And they kind of,
(17:34):
they precluded it with,
you know,
old Spock,
which was body doubled and they had somebody,
you know,
they grafted the face on and had him meeting at Kirk's grave.
And then they had the Enterprise Debian,
you know,
lifted off the planet.
And then you see Kirk's body and they allude to it in Picard season three where he's alive,
(17:58):
but in a tank.
Yep.
And so,
and it references this thing called Project Phoenix.
And so realistically,
they could bring Kirk back.
And so they had this thing with Roddenberry and the Otoi,
you know,
unification short with Kirk basically traveling to the Kelvin universe.
(18:22):
Nice.
Yeah.
To wish Spock farewell as Spock was on his deathbed.
So that the two friends could reunite and Spock could die with his friend.
Yep.
And it was,
there was no words.
Nope.
It,
it was very tastefully done.
(18:43):
Like they could have ruined it by putting dialogue,
but instead they let the emotion of the scene and the characters,
you know,
deep mythology kind of playing into it.
And you could feel it.
Yeah, absolutely.
It was visual storytelling at its best.
Like you said,
you didn't need,
uh, again,
to quote,
(19:04):
um,
not quote,
but to call back to Joe and I doing the turtles book,
there's an issue that we covered where I think it's issue 124.
There's one of the issues in one of the trades where it starts off and the
entire issue,
it's a catch up issue.
Like it's telling you where everyone in the book is and what they're doing,
(19:26):
but it's,
there's no dialogue,
but balloons,
there's no word balloons.
There's no nothing.
It's just the pictures and you have to infer what's going on by just looking
at it.
And this is the same thing with the,
this O2 tour or whatever commercial,
same thing you have to draw the lines.
You have to draw the parallels yourself.
(19:48):
You have to look at it as visual storytelling and that's,
that's great that they did that.
That was such a good thing that they did.
That was awesome.
But it also showed Shatner and it showed others that there are possibilities.
Yeah.
Especially for reviving characters that have passed on or,
or giving Kirk one last,
(20:09):
you know,
hurrah in the saddle.
And I get it,
but people were generally, I mean,
I know they kind of tied it up with the O2 thing,
but people generally hated the ending of generations that they kind of the
studio decided they wanted to kill Kirk,
not everybody else.
That's the studios problem.
That's, that's on them.
(20:31):
That's not on the actor.
That's not on the person who starts as a character.
That's not on the character itself.
That's the,
that's the,
the heads up our asses heads up our asses,
heads up our asses people's problems.
It reminds me of the Clark Griswold Christmas vacation where,
that's right.
(20:52):
Where he's watching all the corporate, you know,
but kissers kind of go by and you know,
he was like,
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.
Kiss my ass.
Kiss his ass.
Happy Hanukkah.
Yeah.
So,
so yeah, I mean, I would,
I would love another,
you know, one last outing with Shatner's Kirk.
(21:14):
Yeah, that would be cool.
What would be really,
and I don't know,
you'll have to tell me cause I've tried to avoid all spoilers whatsoever.
And most of the time I won't remember anyways,
but since we are at some point,
once we finish one podcast to start the other podcast,
we did technically start one podcast over a year ago,
(21:36):
but it is what it is.
We will be going on an altered trek.
Once we finish off a world of a podcaster,
this year at some point,
but I have never,
I don't remember.
The only thing I remember about into darkness is how horrible of a
Rathicon or ripoff it is.
(21:58):
So that's all I remember about that.
I've never seen Star Trek beyond,
so I have no idea what,
how that story ends.
Is there a way
that you could have the two Kirk's together as his kind of final?
I know that's probably not what you would want,
but that's just my initial thought of having a Shatner's big sendoff via
(22:21):
Star Trek for film.
I mean,
it technically could be cause that cause Kirk is in the Kelvin timeline when
Spock dies.
So it's possible.
I don't know,
but I don't know the way they made it sound is
(22:43):
cause Shatner said, said something about
there's a, he's been approached by a new Star Trek show in development.
Okay.
All right. Well,
and he's been asked, you know, back as Kirk so many times and he's like,
I mean, if he's going to come back, it has to mean something.
Yeah, absolutely.
He said he was impressed by this writer that he said, let's talk after he went to,
you know,
(23:04):
Vancouver fan that expo and so hopefully
simply never know something comes to fruition.
Even if it's a short installment, like a six episode season, like just a,
Oh, well, well Steve, don't you know,
six episodes is all you need on certain platforms.
That's all seasons are now six episodes.
(23:27):
Bob's your uncle.
There you go.
Oh, you're your uncle now.
Sorry.
Not Disney.
I know.
I know it's not Disney,
but no, I mean, I would, I would love for that to,
to happen.
Just done right.
And that would be otherwise.
(23:48):
Don't do it.
Exactly.
You can't do it right.
Don't do it at all.
But I've been having fun looking at all the,
all of that.
And then in the interim,
all of the various
toy news and things popping up and which we can talk about that on,
(24:09):
on toy cast about toy fair.
There's still more stuff popping up that.
Yeah.
I want to wait until after it's died to make sure we have everything that we're
interested in.
We can gather that all together and just do one big shenanigan show and.
Yep.
Yeah, there's some, there's some cool stuff from Mondo,
(24:30):
too pricey for my blood, but.
But yeah, I mean, I've,
I've seen some pretty neat stuff kind of coming out of that.
And then.
And then kind of paying attention to.
(24:51):
I've been trying to watch like switch.
It's switching gears or shifting gears, shifting gears.
I was getting so mixed up.
Like, I don't know why.
Like it's.
Yeah.
Mechanical.
Think mechanical shift.
Yeah.
Well, shit.
Yeah.
(25:12):
It's a little shifty.
But no, I mean, I'm.
I'm enjoying what I've seen of it so far.
I've only watched first like four episodes.
Yeah.
And then I've kind of just been busy, so I forgot to watch any further.
But.
(25:33):
I think it's going to be better for us, like podcast wise, to wait until the
whole season's out.
I hope it's not going to be 22 episodes, but.
If it is, it is.
I have a season format.
It's not that big of a deal, but.
I don't see it going that direction, but that's just me.
(25:55):
Yeah.
But every all of the.
Advertisements and all of the clips I see on Instagram for it.
Like every time I'm like, oh, very cool, very funny, very this, very that.
So, yeah.
Well, they brought they brought Nancy Travis back.
(26:16):
Oh, but she's not his blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, because they didn't want
to do that again.
No, she's a will.
They won't.
They will.
They won't.
They most likely won't.
Blah, blah, blah.
Somebody.
And then there's talks of him bringing.
Various.
Kids from his other shows.
Yep.
(26:37):
Oh, yeah, we can do it at the end of March.
It's a 10 episode run for the first season, so that's not bad.
So it's typical modern day.
Yeah.
Typical modern day.
Good.
Yeah.
I can't believe.
Wow.
I can't believe I just said that.
But again, folks, at least it's not just six episodes in that the season.
Yeah.
It's like.
(26:58):
At least give me 13.
At 1013, I can handle anything less than that.
You're a mini series.
Yep.
And then, of course, the big news Skype is going bye bye.
Okay, this prompted me to do a live stream on YouTube.
(27:22):
I must really.
Oh, you missed it.
Oh, you missed it.
And send you the link you put in the show notes.
Yeah.
Is it first I thought kind of we're going to do it on Dragon's Lair.
We didn't get a chance to do Dragon's Lair.
The thing is, I spent 47 minutes.
(27:44):
I went off topic because I was interacting with the audience or whatever else.
But literally.
This was.
Three days ago as of this recording now, so whenever the hell three days ago was.
Was this marks the March 1st.
So three days ago.
(28:07):
You can.
You're not going to be able to see this, folks, but I can probably take a better screenshot of it when.
Now that Steve's going to put it in the post, but I'm going to send this to him just so he can show just so he knows this is why I use Steve is my is my artificial intelligence robot because Steve's intelligence is actual intelligence and not artificial.
(28:33):
Look at that thumbnail.
That's beautiful artistic work by me, isn't it?
For that Skype thumbnail.
That's amazing, isn't it?
I mean, no, I should win awards for that.
Right. I should be recognized for that.
Correct.
Like, I mean, compared to, you know, what Steve does on the regular basis.
(28:58):
I mean, if somebody can tape a banana to a wall on a canvas and get $100,000 for it.
I mean, it's subjective.
Is the video link for later, but yeah, no.
Okay, so here's my issue.
(29:22):
I am not going to sit there and judge teams because I've never used teams. I've never looked at teams. Okay, well, you can give your opinion in a moment and you can tell me a nay or horsey go boom, whatever.
When we started, however many years ago it was XXXXXX years ago, 14, 15, 16, 17, whatever.
(29:53):
We use Skype and we use Pamela call recorder.
Because back then Skype did not have a built in call recorder.
No, it did not.
We used to use a third party call recorder to record your Skype calls. And this was, I believe at the time audio only I don't think Pamela did video. If they did.
(30:18):
Now see, when I had Pamela, it was here.
Here's Pamela, it's technically free for is kind of what they do now with zoom. You can have up to 45 minutes for free but we really want you to pay us so you can get longer times.
You could have a certain amount for free.
But if you wanted and this is what I did every single time. I only did this once with Pamela and it was amazing. I paid like 10 bucks for a lifetime license to Pamela call recorder, and I never had to pay again.
(30:52):
I only have to pay for the thing once. I'm good. If I have to pay annually. I'm good. If I have to pay monthly for a record.
Maybe we can talk, but I don't know.
Anyway, Skype was just it.
Usually we never usually had more than five or six. Most of the time we never usually had more than five people on a podcast unless we were doing big countdowns and things. I remember Skype calls crashing because certain other people try to have seven, eight, nine, 10 people on Skype
(31:28):
calls back in the 2009 2010 to do watch parties on Skype and I'm sitting there thinking, this is not what this is for people whatsoever it's not built for that.
Oh, and we would just record the shows. Yeah, some of the Skype audio was bad in the early days and because we weren't recording on individual separate tracks like we are now with discord, whatever else but you know it was part of the zeitgeist it was part of the was the easiest thing in the world.
(31:58):
Hey, you got Skype. If you don't have Skype, the easiest thing in the world. Here you go. Here's the download link. It's free to sign up. Doesn't call as long as you have a Skype account it doesn't cost you anything to call me or for me to call you.
You know, and
just, it was just freaking easy. Who decades do 2003 to 2025 Skype. At some point I think in 2014 if I'm remembering correctly.
(32:32):
Yeah, Microsoft bought them. Microsoft knew was not, which was an omen for death. Well, yeah, but hey, slow and painful. They lasted 11 more years, but Microsoft slowly just didn't do anything with it they didn't bought it to shelve it.
Unfortunately, bought it to swallow up competition is what they bought it for. And I'm going to say that as a quote unquote fact because I may not know what's going on at the end of working with Microsoft and all that because I've never worked for them but what do companies
(33:08):
do when they want to do their own thing, they will buy up the competition to get rid of the competition. That's what's happened throughout this entire history of our United States of America here in the past. However, many centennials we've had.
I wish when Microsoft had bought them it would have bought it for the purpose of hey we're going to elevate it we're going to improve it we're going to make it the new thing. Going to make it the new Microsoft Skype it could be the new MS.
(33:41):
Like instead of the new empty with Microsoft teams.
I use teams with work. I honestly it's I find it so confusing.
Well, because Skype.
When, when they changed it remember when they started having that stupid format where they started having the big screen where it blows out and then you have like all the different channels and they almost, it was kind of like a hybrid of what they wanted in what discord was, you know.
(34:16):
So they took that and made it you know mixed it with something else and teams and made their made teams out of it.
I don't love the structure because they almost they have like these nested like they want to be a slack or they want to be discord but then they have like these nested channels that you're kind of are in. And then you can have different
(34:49):
different like attachments or different discussions based on certain topics in there.
And when you have like a whole organization it gets very difficult to follow and to stay up with anything. So it ends up being like a glorified instant messenger that becomes like part of a like an overblown Facebook group.
(35:10):
Oh my god no. Or private group, more or less. And so like it's, I don't know I just find it very confusing and too tedious to use. And so when we have to use it for work purposes like I'm not fond of it.
I use it out of necessity alone. And if it wasn't required I wouldn't use it at all. Yeah, just because I don't like it. I honestly, I'm to the point now with my digital media that I don't want to sign up for any more social media accounts.
(35:48):
I don't want to download any more like connectivity apps. Yeah, like I have Facebook, I have LinkedIn, I have YouTube, I have Twitter.
I have Blue Sky, Instagram, threads. Threads is kind of dead and pointless. Instagram still usable, Twitter still usable, Blue Sky I find to be like it wants to be Twitter but it's like the little engine that could.
(36:18):
And just there's not really much value there. I still find that Twitter is still superior in that regard. Like I don't care who runs it. That doesn't matter. Like they honestly they all suck.
But I almost prefer to just be on Discord. Like kind of solely and just communicate with people and just leave it at that because I still spend more time on that or Facebook Messenger or Twitter than I do anything else.
(36:56):
And that's kind of been my whole thing for years. So it's kind of weird. Like I'm going to bring up, I was going to bring up something else but talking about Twitter.
I remember I'm actually on my Twitter page right now. I'm actually looking at my liked feed right now because the next thing I'm going to bring up is in there.
(37:23):
Okay, okay. So I joined Twitter in July of 2008. Okay.
Folks, look here. Yes, I'm going to be the old man that does the old man voice and says, Look here, Sonny boy, we're going to be calling it Twitter, no matter what you say or what you think or what you name your kids of Xing out this that and the other thing, because it's just better.
(37:54):
Here as a term as a word as a whatever. It's in our social media zeitgeist of language.
It's, you can't erase 1617 almost 20 years of language of using a certain term in however the hell long
(38:17):
that cologne has owned it.
And the reason why I'm going off on all of this is because I looked at my Twitter the other day and I'm like, Oh, crap.
So, in the last month. This is gonna be quick, I promise.
I retweeted something from in search of physical media, which is an account, speak for itself, right. And about the 4k release of the long kiss good night with Samuel Jackson.
(38:50):
I think Gina Davis is in that I love that movie I can't wait till that comes out on on 4k. That was February 3.
And then posted something four days ago. I replied to somebody four days ago.
I posted another thing four days ago that we will get into later because unfortunately, sadly and weirdly there's something going on with this story.
(39:16):
Dean Hackman his wife and their dog died. I don't understand. Gene Hackman and his wife and their dog may they all rest in peace but I just
quote, we did discussing film and I just said damn. And then 14 hours ago I retweeted a cover from Jorge for as cover for TMNT issue number 11 TMNT number 11 the new series for my DW they
(39:51):
redid their, their series since Jason Aaron is now running it but basically like five tweets. In the last month. I haven't done just five tweets in the last month.
Like, ever 2008 2009 2010. You were having conversations on Twitter, you and I were I was having conversations with a bunch of other people, we were actually talking on this social media platform.
(40:21):
And now I'm like five tweets in a month. Like really, seriously, I get in I get I get in I post what I want to post and I get the hell out, I am not on Twitter as much as I used to be whatsoever.
Next, I still live on there. I don't care.
(40:42):
I'm not saying, look, I get it, but it's like, I don't know.
I found to. If you follow more of the dumpster fire.
You'll see more of the dumpster fire.
Oh yeah I already I already did all that.
(41:04):
As did I was your fire one dumpster fire to with the hair.
Off at the nip.
It's done.
We're on Facebook and Instagram, Instagram, I get I get sucked into real so now I'll see a real that I like from a comedy troupe or something and then I'll just start scrolling, and I'll find another thing that I like I'll end up doing scrolling Instagram for 20 minutes.
(41:39):
So jumping into something different.
I don't know if you saw this teaser but
truck five.
Oh God.
Did you know that was coming. I saw all of the, I don't think I've actually seen the teaser trailer or whatever trailer they put out, I'll have to go back and watch that but I saw all the commotion about it.
(42:05):
I saw all the online uproar about it about the daughter. Yeah, so the daughter is being played by Zendaya. Yeah, which I feel like they're just kind of jamming down everybody's throats like they tried to make her.
You know she was a Disney thing and then she, you know, she's been on a lot of different stuff and then she got moved over to the Spider-Man stuff and I found her kind of flat there.
(42:30):
And then she's playing the daughter of Shrek.
Which.
Okay.
Sure. And yeah so I mean Mike Myers Eddie Murphy Cameron Diaz and Daya they're, they're in it and then you know the
the
(42:52):
they got him scrolling through like the magic mirror and seeing all these different, you know, stuff and people are like oh what they do to Fiona or what they do to Shrek what they, you know, Donkey looks homeless blah blah blah it's like dude, they're a cartoon.
And you're talking it's been what 10 to 15 years since the last one and they're they're complaining that it's you know the animations change somewhat like and they're trying to recapture it. Yeah.
(43:19):
It's been 24 years since the first one. I was in theaters for the first one. What year did that come out. 2001.
Okay, I think I saw that 24 years I was with my mom my aunt and my cousin at the time we went to go see Shrek in theaters we actually saw
(43:40):
we saw Shrek and we saw on a different outing that year we saw Shrek and a night's tale.
Yeah, I've seen I think I've seen I think I saw the fourth film. I remember up to the third film. I remember up to Shrek the third. I don't remember the fourth. I know there is a fourth film.
(44:03):
I think I saw the fourth film but I don't remember the fourth film to save my life.
I can bet on me to remember a plot synopsis of a fourth film that came out would you say 15 years ago or whatever it was something like that.
I don't remember, like I.
(44:24):
And then I know they came out with like a two puss in boots movies and which kind of was like,
Oh my god, this is how bad it is with my brain folks I just felt it is Shrek s E s H E R K.
That's not how it felt. Yeah sure.
(44:47):
This right now.
Oh god.
Very very bad.
Okay.
Yeah, so yeah Shrek forever after was 2010 and Shrek five is December 23 of next year.
(45:16):
Yeah, so it's been 15 years. Yeah.
People are throwing a colossal fit over how they look.
Yeah, I understand. Like, I don't know man like come on.
Like, I don't know that's that's the same type of outrage I was noticing with like Dragon Ball, Dima people were thrown a fit because Goku goes Super Saiyan four in it.
(45:42):
And one it's it's omaging like all of Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT and he didn't create GT but he was kind of the curator I'm the guy that created Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball and all that.
He didn't create Dragon Ball GT. He did design some of the stuff but the people that kind of ran with it when he was kind of done.
(46:08):
He kind of give them their blessing and then just was like all right have fun with it blah blah blah like he designed some stuff but they ultimately came up with Super Saiyan four and so he homage that in Dima and gave it a little bit different aesthetic different,
you know, little bit different colors and little bit different stuff with the outfit and things like that and people were flipping out like, like, I'm like, just be grateful he made it canon.
(46:36):
Exactly. And yes, like I get it like Dragon Ball is so full of continuity issues across all of the series.
Like there was something in in Super and in Dima and he made both and there's continuity issues right in the first episodes of both.
Like, so I mean, it, but it's like okay guys like that's, let's take a chill pill like I get it like it's frustrating to me to like, I find it's a little less irritating and animation, as opposed to like a Star Trek.
(47:15):
Yeah, where you've got the 60 years worth of stuff and like yes you know some things could be retconned, you know based on budget or things like that later.
Like strange new worlds, they retcon the fact that the bridge looks so advanced compared to the original series well it's like well you're dealing with 1960s production verse, you know, 120 something.
(47:38):
Yeah. Yeah. And so it's like okay I can overlook that I can overlook the enterprise looking a little bit different I can overlook you know the uniforms a little bit different you know just based on alone the fact that we're dealing with different decades.
Didn't get behind was when they changed the Klingons to look like orcs.
Oh you can't do that. Don't don't. Not everything has to be a flippin orc. I almost said.
(48:03):
Anyways, but that's that's what I was getting at is like, yeah, there's a tasteful way of doing it and tasteful you know but I was just kind of like,
where does strange new world. When not where when at what point in the Star Trek timeline does strange new worlds take place 24th century 27th century, 23rd.
(48:27):
It's before Kirk took the enterprise. Okay, gotcha gotcha gotcha gotcha gotcha. Okay. So it's before Kirk becomes captain of the enterprise and he's like Lieutenant Kirk when he shows up.
Okay, very cool very cool.
Just briefly perusing the Shrek forever after Wikipedia page here. I remembering this movie now it's rumples still skin is in it. And it's it's Shrek is tired of being a family man and a celebrity longing for the days of wanting to be alone in the swamp and having
(49:00):
to see and rumples still skin comes along and tells him to, you know, his finger on a spindle or whatever the hell it's a rumples still skin story. Oh, I think I remember that. Yeah.
So Shrek five let me look here.
(49:21):
So,
yeah, we don't know who I hope they bring back a lot of the other people because man.
So, wow, really, fifth film was initially planned after the release of the second one. So this is planned all the way back then.
(49:44):
Wow, with a 2013 release date in mind, gee.
Well, we're going to get it in 2026 X number of years too late.
Do you want to you want to hear something else funny. You remember how I said they're trying to shove Zendaya but down everybody's throat.
Uh huh.
(50:06):
There's talks of
a Hancock to with Will Smith, as and Zendaya.
Yeah.
I'm like, why?
(50:27):
Some movies just need to be left alone.
Yeah, no sequels just leave alone.
It's like it's like suburban commando it's like you wouldn't want to sequel to that.
Don't get why would you don't give them Space Jam and New Legacy was bad enough, man. Don't give them ideas.
(50:50):
Well, and that's the thing is like studios need to learn sequels decades later don't work.
The only one I want is Ace Ventura three.
Why?
Because I want to see Jim Carrey come back and have fun.
Yeah, other than the fact that he would come back and he would only come back to have fun.
(51:11):
And I think he could put yeah other than the fact but
I would really like to see it.
Yeah, again, if
it's like he has said about Sonic and Sonic 2, 3 and 4.
Sonic 4 is not a thing just yet, but he has said every time as long as it's good as long as it's something that is going to peak my interest and blah blah blah blah.
(51:38):
As long as they add something to it for me or whatever, you know, and obviously out of the side of his mouth as long as they pay me the $20,000,000,000.
I know he's joking about that part because really he does want the creativity. I mean that man doesn't need.
At least I don't think I mean yeah I haven't seen him on any celebrity tabloids lately.
So but yeah, no, it would be fun. It would be interesting, especially since last year was the 30th anniversary of the first film.
(52:07):
It'd be fun.
But yes, the Bourbon Commando does not need a sequel this many years later.
The only reason I brought it up.
I recently watched it again.
You really? Yeah, I watched it. It was on.
I think it was Prime Video.
Probably I like that movie. It's a fun little interesting 1990 early 90s movie.
(52:32):
It was a movie where let's take this wrestling star here, put him into this role here and see what the hell kind of thing happens, man.
It was fun. It was interesting.
So yeah.
So there's that.
(52:55):
Yeah, I mean, pretty much I haven't haven't really been doing too much else other than just kind of watching stuff and just kind of
trying to knock out various projects and print everything I was trying to get printed and I still want to print a Megatron helmet.
Haven't quite gotten there yet. I think it'll fit my head on this print bed.
(53:22):
I'm like 90% sure.
But I want to print that Megatron helmet.
And I don't need a vocoder because I can do the voice. Oh, yeah.
Well, absolutely.
So,
(53:45):
still, I think that's I think it's about it on this episode.
I don't think anything else.
Oh, I think I'm good.
So I'm planning.
So long as all my, you know, health doesn't decline again and
all of my wrap with various projects, you know, continue.
(54:11):
I'm hoping to get to start the new MWIRE and get the next Cyber Dragon Ball episode recorded.
And I have it like pretty much scripted out.
As far as the Cyber Dragon Ball, the MWIRE, I've got kind of bullet point things saved for what I want to do.
(54:35):
Oh, cool.
So we shall see.
I see things kind of loosening up once May hits.
So I'm yeah, I'm my schedule is kind of not so I do right now.
And then once once May hits, I'm foreseeing I should be back and kind of full swing of these.
(54:57):
And I'm hoping to at least batch record some of these in the meantime, not so much MWIRE.
That'll be more of a live, like kind of more recent short show by comparison.
Like it'll be like 10, 15 minutes long.
I'm estimating.
And then Cyber Dragon Ball will be whatever it ends up being.
(55:21):
Live and in your face.
Yes, movie we can review.
That's right.
That's right.
Old shows.
Yes.
So we've got we're in the middle of Mutant March.
We just celebrated 12 years of the pullback.
Episode 575 will be online by the time you hear this most likely think I hope.
(55:46):
I don't know.
Hopefully.
So you're 2009.
I'm going to get to editing on 126, 127.
So you'll hear Sonic 1, Sonic 2, then we'll record Sonic 3 next week.
That'll be that trifecta.
And then I've got a couple other episodes that I've recorded.
(56:07):
And then we'll get into Colombo season two.
So that'll be that.
What else?
Once Toy Fair finally ends, even I will do a Toy Fair, a Toy Cast Toy Fair.
Boy breakdown or whatever.
I don't know.
So we got a bunch of stuff.
Castradio.com.
(56:28):

Yep. Yep. Yep.
So thank you as always for listening to Altered Geek.
I've been your host, Steve Megatron with TFG1Mike.

(56:50):
So until next time, get altered, get geeky with the Altered Geeks.
(57:20):
And we'll see you next time.
(57:50):
Bye.
Hi, this is David Kaye and you're listening to Altered Geek. Geek.
(00:04):
Hello and welcome to...
I think the first episode of Altered Geek for the year.
(00:25):
I'm your host, Steve Megatron Phillips and joining me on this adventure in the geekdom is TFG1Mike.
Would you like me to actually keep your show up to date?
No.
I think you are correct, sir.
I think I'm correct. It's... yeah.
There's been a lot going on, so that's more so why I have not done a new episode.
(00:52):
Not for lack of wanting to, it's just time, effort, busy schedule, being sick.
Yeah, just a ton of different reasons.
We take it all back, folks, because 1.21 gigawatts.
January 21st, you did Steve Megatron returns in 2025.
(01:16):
So this is technically the second.
Yeah, this is the second episode of 2025.
So, yeah, so it's been a little bit since you've been on the show.
Like cobwebs in here.
Yeah, yeah, there's there's cobwebs.
You've, of course, been podcasting like crazy still.
(01:42):
You think? I think I've gone insane.
Yeah, that's normal.
No, dude, this is not normal.
No, it's not normal for me.
Like normal for me is.
The brain broke, brain dead, brain, no work, no more.
(02:04):
No. We're all mad here.
I've been I've been sidelined with I just I got a new 3D printer.
I got the cubic Cobra S1 combo with the Ace Pro.
It's got the dehydrator built in so it can run wallets printing,
(02:26):
which has been nice because I've got old filaments that were
basically hydrated from the air,
which were causing issues on my old ender.
And I sold that back in December, November, December.
I just I got tired of settling with it in this.
Honestly, this printer, I haven't had any issues in the issues
(02:47):
I have had have been operator error.
Majority of them in.
Honestly, I've gotten great prints out of it.
I've I've fully printed my beast machine Megatron.
Which took you 16 years.
You know, yeah,
(03:07):
I'm still working on painting him and then I got to glue him
and kind of like tighten up some of the joints.
But I was able to.
Not only print some of the sections like the cloak,
the cloak alone was going to take 17 hours
for one section of it on my old printer.
(03:29):
It took five or six on this one.
Wow, that's awesome.
And it's been it out fast.
Like I I had to reprint the collar on him three times
because two of the copies were brittle.
And I printed them thicker each time.
So the third time I ended up with a set that was pretty decent and.
(03:53):
I still got to work on printing or painting him
and kind of detailing it, but
overall, it's it's at least printed, which is
a plus, and then I've been printing shelving and display pieces for.
My other figures from my cabinet, so like my
Star Trek stuff I printed Captain Kirk's chair.
(04:17):
I printed some display stands for my Marvel characters.
I printed display stands.
As well as like these.
They're kind of these round pucks.
Of sorts with like a little nub on them and a stick so that you can put the
superhero helmet on it. Yeah.
(04:38):
And so I put those in so I could have their like real faces
for like Iron Man and Spider-Man and Wolverine.
And then.
I printed a couple of stands for my Dragon Ball Z stuff, and then I printed
my Power Rangers shelf was probably the biggest disaster out of everything
because they all just kind of like jumbled together.
(05:00):
And.
I.
I printed some of these display shelves in different colors, and then I printed
the little head pieces for for the helmet so I could put all their real faces on
for the ones that I had real faces because some of them I got used and some
new and different states of repair.
(05:23):
So I was able to stagger them.
I was able to have their weapons out.
I was able to have the helmets on and you know everything else.
So you can actually see everything now.
Which has been nice.
So that's that's part of what has been keeping me preoccupied.
(05:44):
I'm kind of at this lull right now where I'm like I don't really know what to
print at the moment.
I'm about to ship out your stuff.
I was just waiting for the temperature to drop, which it did.
Did.
Because I want to make sure that it makes it there in one piece and doesn't like
break or melt or whatever, because 3D printing like I don't I don't get the
(06:06):
the ABS like stuff that is heat resistant.
So it's.
It should be fine because they're thick enough prints, but.
I still want to make sure that nothing happens in the.
In the.
So I'm like I will package these up and mail them out.
(06:28):
As soon as the weather permits and so like temperatures drop.
So I'll probably mail it the next day or so.
But but yeah, I mean it's this thing spits out stuff fast.
I printed like the spitting disks for like Ian step charge.
I've printed.
I've printed the spitting disks for the covert agent Ravage.
(06:53):
Nice because he you know how they had those little narrow feed on them.
Yep.
And it didn't really fit.
And I was like I saw some free files and I'm like, let's see how this works.
And so I printed it and like it slips on just like a slipper.
Nice.
So I was like, it's funny.
So the cat wearing slippers.
(07:15):
And I was like, oh, I'm going to go get some of these.
I'm going to go get some of these.
And then of course, I've been preoccupied with watching various shows.
You know, Dungeons and Dragons movie with Chris Pine and then Dragon Ball
Dyma, which just concluded in Japan.
And then it was like a 20 episode series that was kind of a anniversary of Dragon Ball.
(07:45):
And they definitely mixed parts of GT in it.
And some fans are whiny and some fans are not.
And I'm just happy it happened and the way that it did.
And I'm waiting for some couple of the figures that are in the show.
So specifically, spoilers for anybody that hasn't seen the ending yet,
(08:09):
although it's been all over social media.
If you've even seen any Googling on Dragon Ball Super Saiyan for Goku and Dima
actually becomes canon.
So interesting, both as a kid and as an adult.
Oh, boy.
So I'm pretty happy about that, so they I've already seen the figures for the
(08:34):
for the kid version, which I'm like, do I get that or do you get the adult?
I already have GTS, but.
Very cool, very cool.
Yeah, no, the end of 2024 was.
(08:55):
So I tried to do.
25 days of Studio 2009.
Actually, no, technically, I didn't try to do that.
I tried to do 31 days of Studio 2009.
I made it to 15.
I mean, that's better than what I did, which was like two.
(09:22):
But so.
So in order for me to do stuff like that in the future, I'm going to have to
like pre produce.
I am already in the midst of currently doing stuff like this.
I'm going to have to pre produce everything.
My buddy Dave Draper, who does the Colombo files with me, which is a bit of
preset show within Studio 2009 where we discuss every episode of the television
(09:49):
show Colombo from the 70s, starring the amazing Peter Falk about the frumpy
detective from the 70s television.
And Dave's just like, I don't care when they release, as long as we can record
them.
So we're recording stuff already.
Like we're in the middle of season three and I haven't even released season two
(10:11):
yet on Studio 2009.
So we're going to be very well set up for the future of Studio 2009.
Just have to make sure I make mention in certain episodes of when certain things
are coming up because season three of Studio 2009 will be during the episode 171
(10:32):
to 178 run of the show, the podcast.
So I got to mention in 175 that we're 25 away from 200.
So you'll have to come up with something that you absolutely want to discuss that
we haven't discussed before for 200, since I usually give you first crack at
major milestones on whatever podcasts you and I do.
(10:56):
Studio 2009, almost at, I mean, we're, I'm in the middle of editing 126, 127,
and 121.
We have to record 128.
But the point is we're doing a Sonic triple threat, triple feature for the
Sonic movies over there.
And then I've got a couple other episodes here and there, here and there.
And then season two of Colombo will air.
(11:17):
And then I've got other things going on.
At some point you and I will get to do shipping.
Wow.
Yeah.
See, that's the other thing, folks.
My brain damage does not let me talk as well as I used to anymore.
Apparently I have tongue tied and twisted myself on podcasts more times in the
last month and a half than I have in the last 16 years of doing this.
(11:41):
Shifting gears is what I was trying to say.
So you and I will do that show at some point, whether it's live as the show
airs or whether it's after the fact.
Somebody said something about Hulu was down recently.
So I think it crashed during the Oscars.
(12:03):
Yes.
Yes.
That's what it was.
Yeah.
And my first thought was to those of us that actually still, I don't currently
subscribe to Hulu.
I wish I still did, but I will eventually again.
My first thought was to those people who still subscribe to Hulu by itself.
(12:24):
You can do it two ways.
You can do it by itself on its own.
Pay for it that way.
Or you can do it as part of one of the Disney bundle options.
And I was going to ask a buddy of mine who said, it's how I found it out.
A buddy of mine said, oh, it's, it's down.
I was going to ask him if it was just the Hulu website that was down or if it
(12:47):
was also the Hulu under Disney plus website that was down too.
Cause I would have been curious to know if it was both or if it was just the
Hulu website.
And of course the Oscars is going to crash Hulu because it's the, oh God.
I don't, I, I, I am.
(13:08):
I've never been a fan of a word show.
I know.
But there's.
Okay.
So the last time I think we majorly talked about the Oscars is the slap that
shouldn't have happened.
Right.
I'm thinking that's probably the last time we talked about it.
(13:30):
And this time we can actually talk about it for an actual amazing thing.
Freaking Fuller man.
Here in Culkin.
At, have you seen that clip?
I saw that clip earlier today.
It's hilarious.
Yeah.
About winning the Oscar.
The daily head was wife.
Wife.
I loved it.
(13:51):
So good.
That is moments like that.
He was like, let's get to work.
Yeah.
Let's get to work on making them kids.
She's like, Oh,
It's moments like that.
It's moments like when key.
Oh God.
I'm going to screw his name up short round.
Oh God.
Sorry.
You who Quan.
I'm sorry.
(14:12):
If I'm wrong.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
You who Quan.
I'm sorry.
If I screwed that up,
but it's like when,
when he got his Oscar or here,
his win,
it's moments like that,
that I love the award show for everything else,
(14:34):
throw it out the frigging window.
Oh no.
I agree with you.
They were doing.
Honors for ledger that it had been the 15 year anniversary since he won his posthumously
or something.
I kept seeing clips of that.
I don't know.
(14:55):
Yeah.
I saw something with him,
with the video camera and yeah,
I understand.
Celebrate the life that the man had and all that and everything else.
But I don't know.
I do some weird things in Hollywood.
So then again,
(15:18):
it's Hollywood.
Hollywood.
That's right.
And only weird.
What else you got?
Well,
I don't know if you've seen this bit of news,
but Shatner was talking about returning to track.
Yes.
I think you pointed that out to me.
(15:39):
I was like,
yes.
Yes.
Not for like a long engagement.
I mean, the dudes.
Yeah.
Dude's 93.
Yeah.
Hit the probability of him,
you know,
living through an entire show.
I'm not saying that to be mean.
I know.
(16:00):
Dude, just old.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I still like him for playing the character and the fact that he's open to it,
especially after that Otoi unification short.
Oh,
oh,
that was.
I actually like that.
(16:22):
I was able,
but I know the lore.
So like to me,
it was an important closure.
And it was giving.
And what made it better to me,
I know that they used AI for it and they used practical effects.
They use like Sam Witwer to play young Kirk and all the various versions of the body double.
(16:46):
Yeah.
Because he's,
he looks close enough.
They got the hairdo.
Like they just did the hairdo on him.
And then they grafted Shatner's face on him and D Hed.
And so he had the mannerisms down.
Like the dude's a huge nerd.
It felt right.
I love Sam.
We're absolutely.
He's awesome.
Like he's the reason why some of the Star Wars stuff that he's been involved with has been good is because he's a huge nerd and he takes it seriously.
(17:12):
And so when they asked him to do it,
you know,
and be a part of it and then Shatner's in it and then they had,
you know,
Robin Curtis playing Savick back and then the various other characters and they had Kirk basically coming back from the dead after,
you know,
after generations.
And they kind of,
(17:34):
they precluded it with,
you know,
old Spock,
which was body doubled and they had somebody,
you know,
they grafted the face on and had him meeting at Kirk's grave.
And then they had the Enterprise Debian,
you know,
lifted off the planet.
And then you see Kirk's body and they allude to it in Picard season three where he's alive,
(17:58):
but in a tank.
Yep.
And so,
and it references this thing called Project Phoenix.
And so realistically,
they could bring Kirk back.
And so they had this thing with Roddenberry and the Otoi,
you know,
unification short with Kirk basically traveling to the Kelvin universe.
(18:22):
Nice.
Yeah.
To wish Spock farewell as Spock was on his deathbed.
So that the two friends could reunite and Spock could die with his friend.
Yep.
And it was,
there was no words.
Nope.
It,
it was very tastefully done.
(18:43):
Like they could have ruined it by putting dialogue,
but instead they let the emotion of the scene and the characters,
you know,
deep mythology kind of playing into it.
And you could feel it.
Yeah, absolutely.
It was visual storytelling at its best.
Like you said,
you didn't need,
uh, again,
to quote,
(19:04):
um,
not quote,
but to call back to Joe and I doing the turtles book,
there's an issue that we covered where I think it's issue 124.
There's one of the issues in one of the trades where it starts off and the
entire issue,
it's a catch up issue.
Like it's telling you where everyone in the book is and what they're doing,
(19:26):
but it's,
there's no dialogue,
but balloons,
there's no word balloons.
There's no nothing.
It's just the pictures and you have to infer what's going on by just looking
at it.
And this is the same thing with the,
this O2 tour or whatever commercial,
same thing you have to draw the lines.
You have to draw the parallels yourself.
(19:48):
You have to look at it as visual storytelling and that's,
that's great that they did that.
That was such a good thing that they did.
That was awesome.
But it also showed Shatner and it showed others that there are possibilities.
Yeah.
Especially for reviving characters that have passed on or,
or giving Kirk one last,
(20:09):
you know,
hurrah in the saddle.
And I get it,
but people were generally, I mean,
I know they kind of tied it up with the O2 thing,
but people generally hated the ending of generations that they kind of the
studio decided they wanted to kill Kirk,
not everybody else.
That's the studios problem.
That's, that's on them.
(20:31):
That's not on the actor.
That's not on the person who starts as a character.
That's not on the character itself.
That's the,
that's the,
the heads up our asses heads up our asses,
heads up our asses people's problems.
It reminds me of the Clark Griswold Christmas vacation where,
that's right.
(20:52):
Where he's watching all the corporate, you know,
but kissers kind of go by and you know,
he was like,
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas.
Kiss my ass.
Kiss his ass.
Happy Hanukkah.
Yeah.
So,
so yeah, I mean, I would,
I would love another,
you know, one last outing with Shatner's Kirk.
(21:14):
Yeah, that would be cool.
What would be really,
and I don't know,
you'll have to tell me cause I've tried to avoid all spoilers whatsoever.
And most of the time I won't remember anyways,
but since we are at some point,
once we finish one podcast to start the other podcast,
we did technically start one podcast over a year ago,
(21:36):
but it is what it is.
We will be going on an altered trek.
Once we finish off a world of a podcaster,
this year at some point,
but I have never,
I don't remember.
The only thing I remember about into darkness is how horrible of a
Rathicon or ripoff it is.
(21:58):
So that's all I remember about that.
I've never seen Star Trek beyond,
so I have no idea what,
how that story ends.
Is there a way
that you could have the two Kirk's together as his kind of final?
I know that's probably not what you would want,
but that's just my initial thought of having a Shatner's big sendoff via
(22:21):
Star Trek for film.
I mean,
it technically could be cause that cause Kirk is in the Kelvin timeline when
Spock dies.
So it's possible.
I don't know,
but I don't know the way they made it sound is
(22:43):
cause Shatner said, said something about
there's a, he's been approached by a new Star Trek show in development.
Okay.
All right. Well,
and he's been asked, you know, back as Kirk so many times and he's like,
I mean, if he's going to come back, it has to mean something.
Yeah, absolutely.
He said he was impressed by this writer that he said, let's talk after he went to,
you know,
(23:04):
Vancouver fan that expo and so hopefully
simply never know something comes to fruition.
Even if it's a short installment, like a six episode season, like just a,
Oh, well, well Steve, don't you know,
six episodes is all you need on certain platforms.
That's all seasons are now six episodes.
(23:27):
Bob's your uncle.
There you go.
Oh, you're your uncle now.
Sorry.
Not Disney.
I know.
I know it's not Disney,
but no, I mean, I would, I would love for that to,
to happen.
Just done right.
And that would be otherwise.
(23:48):
Don't do it.
Exactly.
You can't do it right.
Don't do it at all.
But I've been having fun looking at all the,
all of that.
And then in the interim,
all of the various
toy news and things popping up and which we can talk about that on,
(24:09):
on toy cast about toy fair.
There's still more stuff popping up that.
Yeah.
I want to wait until after it's died to make sure we have everything that we're
interested in.
We can gather that all together and just do one big shenanigan show and.
Yep.
Yeah, there's some, there's some cool stuff from Mondo,
(24:30):
too pricey for my blood, but.
But yeah, I mean, I've,
I've seen some pretty neat stuff kind of coming out of that.
And then.
And then kind of paying attention to.
(24:51):
I've been trying to watch like switch.
It's switching gears or shifting gears, shifting gears.
I was getting so mixed up.
Like, I don't know why.
Like it's.
Yeah.
Mechanical.
Think mechanical shift.
Yeah.
Well, shit.
Yeah.
(25:12):
It's a little shifty.
But no, I mean, I'm.
I'm enjoying what I've seen of it so far.
I've only watched first like four episodes.
Yeah.
And then I've kind of just been busy, so I forgot to watch any further.
But.
(25:33):
I think it's going to be better for us, like podcast wise, to wait until the
whole season's out.
I hope it's not going to be 22 episodes, but.
If it is, it is.
I have a season format.
It's not that big of a deal, but.
I don't see it going that direction, but that's just me.
(25:55):
Yeah.
But every all of the.
Advertisements and all of the clips I see on Instagram for it.
Like every time I'm like, oh, very cool, very funny, very this, very that.
So, yeah.
Well, they brought they brought Nancy Travis back.
(26:16):
Oh, but she's not his blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, because they didn't want
to do that again.
No, she's a will.
They won't.
They will.
They won't.
They most likely won't.
Blah, blah, blah.
Somebody.
And then there's talks of him bringing.
Various.
Kids from his other shows.
Yep.
(26:37):
Oh, yeah, we can do it at the end of March.
It's a 10 episode run for the first season, so that's not bad.
So it's typical modern day.
Yeah.
Typical modern day.
Good.
Yeah.
I can't believe.
Wow.
I can't believe I just said that.
But again, folks, at least it's not just six episodes in that the season.
Yeah.
It's like.
(26:58):
At least give me 13.
At 1013, I can handle anything less than that.
You're a mini series.
Yep.
And then, of course, the big news Skype is going bye bye.
Okay, this prompted me to do a live stream on YouTube.
(27:22):
I must really.
Oh, you missed it.
Oh, you missed it.
And send you the link you put in the show notes.
Yeah.
Is it first I thought kind of we're going to do it on Dragon's Lair.
We didn't get a chance to do Dragon's Lair.
The thing is, I spent 47 minutes.
(27:44):
I went off topic because I was interacting with the audience or whatever else.
But literally.
This was.
Three days ago as of this recording now, so whenever the hell three days ago was.
Was this marks the March 1st.
So three days ago.
(28:07):
You can.
You're not going to be able to see this, folks, but I can probably take a better screenshot of it when.
Now that Steve's going to put it in the post, but I'm going to send this to him just so he can show just so he knows this is why I use Steve is my is my artificial intelligence robot because Steve's intelligence is actual intelligence and not artificial.
(28:33):
Look at that thumbnail.
That's beautiful artistic work by me, isn't it?
For that Skype thumbnail.
That's amazing, isn't it?
I mean, no, I should win awards for that.
Right. I should be recognized for that.
Correct.
Like, I mean, compared to, you know, what Steve does on the regular basis.
(28:58):
I mean, if somebody can tape a banana to a wall on a canvas and get $100,000 for it.
I mean, it's subjective.
Is the video link for later, but yeah, no.
Okay, so here's my issue.
(29:22):
I am not going to sit there and judge teams because I've never used teams. I've never looked at teams. Okay, well, you can give your opinion in a moment and you can tell me a nay or horsey go boom, whatever.
When we started, however many years ago it was XXXXXX years ago, 14, 15, 16, 17, whatever.
(29:53):
We use Skype and we use Pamela call recorder.
Because back then Skype did not have a built in call recorder.
No, it did not.
We used to use a third party call recorder to record your Skype calls. And this was, I believe at the time audio only I don't think Pamela did video. If they did.
(30:18):
Now see, when I had Pamela, it was here.
Here's Pamela, it's technically free for is kind of what they do now with zoom. You can have up to 45 minutes for free but we really want you to pay us so you can get longer times.
You could have a certain amount for free.
But if you wanted and this is what I did every single time. I only did this once with Pamela and it was amazing. I paid like 10 bucks for a lifetime license to Pamela call recorder, and I never had to pay again.
(30:52):
I only have to pay for the thing once. I'm good. If I have to pay annually. I'm good. If I have to pay monthly for a record.
Maybe we can talk, but I don't know.
Anyway, Skype was just it.
Usually we never usually had more than five or six. Most of the time we never usually had more than five people on a podcast unless we were doing big countdowns and things. I remember Skype calls crashing because certain other people try to have seven, eight, nine, 10 people on Skype
(31:28):
calls back in the 2009 2010 to do watch parties on Skype and I'm sitting there thinking, this is not what this is for people whatsoever it's not built for that.
Oh, and we would just record the shows. Yeah, some of the Skype audio was bad in the early days and because we weren't recording on individual separate tracks like we are now with discord, whatever else but you know it was part of the zeitgeist it was part of the was the easiest thing in the world.
(31:58):
Hey, you got Skype. If you don't have Skype, the easiest thing in the world. Here you go. Here's the download link. It's free to sign up. Doesn't call as long as you have a Skype account it doesn't cost you anything to call me or for me to call you.
You know, and
just, it was just freaking easy. Who decades do 2003 to 2025 Skype. At some point I think in 2014 if I'm remembering correctly.
(32:32):
Yeah, Microsoft bought them. Microsoft knew was not, which was an omen for death. Well, yeah, but hey, slow and painful. They lasted 11 more years, but Microsoft slowly just didn't do anything with it they didn't bought it to shelve it.
Unfortunately, bought it to swallow up competition is what they bought it for. And I'm going to say that as a quote unquote fact because I may not know what's going on at the end of working with Microsoft and all that because I've never worked for them but what do companies
(33:08):
do when they want to do their own thing, they will buy up the competition to get rid of the competition. That's what's happened throughout this entire history of our United States of America here in the past. However, many centennials we've had.
I wish when Microsoft had bought them it would have bought it for the purpose of hey we're going to elevate it we're going to improve it we're going to make it the new thing. Going to make it the new Microsoft Skype it could be the new MS.
(33:41):
Like instead of the new empty with Microsoft teams.
I use teams with work. I honestly it's I find it so confusing.
Well, because Skype.
When, when they changed it remember when they started having that stupid format where they started having the big screen where it blows out and then you have like all the different channels and they almost, it was kind of like a hybrid of what they wanted in what discord was, you know.
(34:16):
So they took that and made it you know mixed it with something else and teams and made their made teams out of it.
I don't love the structure because they almost they have like these nested like they want to be a slack or they want to be discord but then they have like these nested channels that you're kind of are in. And then you can have different
(34:49):
different like attachments or different discussions based on certain topics in there.
And when you have like a whole organization it gets very difficult to follow and to stay up with anything. So it ends up being like a glorified instant messenger that becomes like part of a like an overblown Facebook group.
(35:10):
Oh my god no. Or private group, more or less. And so like it's, I don't know I just find it very confusing and too tedious to use. And so when we have to use it for work purposes like I'm not fond of it.
I use it out of necessity alone. And if it wasn't required I wouldn't use it at all. Yeah, just because I don't like it. I honestly, I'm to the point now with my digital media that I don't want to sign up for any more social media accounts.
(35:48):
I don't want to download any more like connectivity apps. Yeah, like I have Facebook, I have LinkedIn, I have YouTube, I have Twitter.
I have Blue Sky, Instagram, threads. Threads is kind of dead and pointless. Instagram still usable, Twitter still usable, Blue Sky I find to be like it wants to be Twitter but it's like the little engine that could.
(36:18):
And just there's not really much value there. I still find that Twitter is still superior in that regard. Like I don't care who runs it. That doesn't matter. Like they honestly they all suck.
But I almost prefer to just be on Discord. Like kind of solely and just communicate with people and just leave it at that because I still spend more time on that or Facebook Messenger or Twitter than I do anything else.
(36:56):
And that's kind of been my whole thing for years. So it's kind of weird. Like I'm going to bring up, I was going to bring up something else but talking about Twitter.
I remember I'm actually on my Twitter page right now. I'm actually looking at my liked feed right now because the next thing I'm going to bring up is in there.
(37:23):
Okay, okay. So I joined Twitter in July of 2008. Okay.
Folks, look here. Yes, I'm going to be the old man that does the old man voice and says, Look here, Sonny boy, we're going to be calling it Twitter, no matter what you say or what you think or what you name your kids of Xing out this that and the other thing, because it's just better.
(37:54):
Here as a term as a word as a whatever. It's in our social media zeitgeist of language.
It's, you can't erase 1617 almost 20 years of language of using a certain term in however the hell long
(38:17):
that cologne has owned it.
And the reason why I'm going off on all of this is because I looked at my Twitter the other day and I'm like, Oh, crap.
So, in the last month. This is gonna be quick, I promise.
I retweeted something from in search of physical media, which is an account, speak for itself, right. And about the 4k release of the long kiss good night with Samuel Jackson.
(38:50):
I think Gina Davis is in that I love that movie I can't wait till that comes out on on 4k. That was February 3.
And then posted something four days ago. I replied to somebody four days ago.
I posted another thing four days ago that we will get into later because unfortunately, sadly and weirdly there's something going on with this story.
(39:16):
Dean Hackman his wife and their dog died. I don't understand. Gene Hackman and his wife and their dog may they all rest in peace but I just
quote, we did discussing film and I just said damn. And then 14 hours ago I retweeted a cover from Jorge for as cover for TMNT issue number 11 TMNT number 11 the new series for my DW they
(39:51):
redid their, their series since Jason Aaron is now running it but basically like five tweets. In the last month. I haven't done just five tweets in the last month.
Like, ever 2008 2009 2010. You were having conversations on Twitter, you and I were I was having conversations with a bunch of other people, we were actually talking on this social media platform.
(40:21):
And now I'm like five tweets in a month. Like really, seriously, I get in I get I get in I post what I want to post and I get the hell out, I am not on Twitter as much as I used to be whatsoever.
Next, I still live on there. I don't care.
(40:42):
I'm not saying, look, I get it, but it's like, I don't know.
I found to. If you follow more of the dumpster fire.
You'll see more of the dumpster fire.
Oh yeah I already I already did all that.
(41:04):
As did I was your fire one dumpster fire to with the hair.
Off at the nip.
It's done.
We're on Facebook and Instagram, Instagram, I get I get sucked into real so now I'll see a real that I like from a comedy troupe or something and then I'll just start scrolling, and I'll find another thing that I like I'll end up doing scrolling Instagram for 20 minutes.
(41:39):
So jumping into something different.
I don't know if you saw this teaser but
truck five.
Oh God.
Did you know that was coming. I saw all of the, I don't think I've actually seen the teaser trailer or whatever trailer they put out, I'll have to go back and watch that but I saw all the commotion about it.
(42:05):
I saw all the online uproar about it about the daughter. Yeah, so the daughter is being played by Zendaya. Yeah, which I feel like they're just kind of jamming down everybody's throats like they tried to make her.
You know she was a Disney thing and then she, you know, she's been on a lot of different stuff and then she got moved over to the Spider-Man stuff and I found her kind of flat there.
(42:30):
And then she's playing the daughter of Shrek.
Which.
Okay.
Sure. And yeah so I mean Mike Myers Eddie Murphy Cameron Diaz and Daya they're, they're in it and then you know the
the
(42:52):
they got him scrolling through like the magic mirror and seeing all these different, you know, stuff and people are like oh what they do to Fiona or what they do to Shrek what they, you know, Donkey looks homeless blah blah blah it's like dude, they're a cartoon.
And you're talking it's been what 10 to 15 years since the last one and they're they're complaining that it's you know the animations change somewhat like and they're trying to recapture it. Yeah.
(43:19):
It's been 24 years since the first one. I was in theaters for the first one. What year did that come out. 2001.
Okay, I think I saw that 24 years I was with my mom my aunt and my cousin at the time we went to go see Shrek in theaters we actually saw
(43:40):
we saw Shrek and we saw on a different outing that year we saw Shrek and a night's tale.
Yeah, I've seen I think I've seen I think I saw the fourth film. I remember up to the third film. I remember up to Shrek the third. I don't remember the fourth. I know there is a fourth film.
(44:03):
I think I saw the fourth film but I don't remember the fourth film to save my life.
I can bet on me to remember a plot synopsis of a fourth film that came out would you say 15 years ago or whatever it was something like that.
I don't remember, like I.
(44:24):
And then I know they came out with like a two puss in boots movies and which kind of was like,
Oh my god, this is how bad it is with my brain folks I just felt it is Shrek s E s H E R K.
That's not how it felt. Yeah sure.
(44:47):
This right now.
Oh god.
Very very bad.
Okay.
Yeah, so yeah Shrek forever after was 2010 and Shrek five is December 23 of next year.
(45:16):
Yeah, so it's been 15 years. Yeah.
People are throwing a colossal fit over how they look.
Yeah, I understand. Like, I don't know man like come on.
Like, I don't know that's that's the same type of outrage I was noticing with like Dragon Ball, Dima people were thrown a fit because Goku goes Super Saiyan four in it.
(45:42):
And one it's it's omaging like all of Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT and he didn't create GT but he was kind of the curator I'm the guy that created Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball and all that.
He didn't create Dragon Ball GT. He did design some of the stuff but the people that kind of ran with it when he was kind of done.
(46:08):
He kind of give them their blessing and then just was like all right have fun with it blah blah blah like he designed some stuff but they ultimately came up with Super Saiyan four and so he homage that in Dima and gave it a little bit different aesthetic different,
you know, little bit different colors and little bit different stuff with the outfit and things like that and people were flipping out like, like, I'm like, just be grateful he made it canon.
(46:36):
Exactly. And yes, like I get it like Dragon Ball is so full of continuity issues across all of the series.
Like there was something in in Super and in Dima and he made both and there's continuity issues right in the first episodes of both.
Like, so I mean, it, but it's like okay guys like that's, let's take a chill pill like I get it like it's frustrating to me to like, I find it's a little less irritating and animation, as opposed to like a Star Trek.
(47:15):
Yeah, where you've got the 60 years worth of stuff and like yes you know some things could be retconned, you know based on budget or things like that later.
Like strange new worlds, they retcon the fact that the bridge looks so advanced compared to the original series well it's like well you're dealing with 1960s production verse, you know, 120 something.
(47:38):
Yeah. Yeah. And so it's like okay I can overlook that I can overlook the enterprise looking a little bit different I can overlook you know the uniforms a little bit different you know just based on alone the fact that we're dealing with different decades.
Didn't get behind was when they changed the Klingons to look like orcs.
Oh you can't do that. Don't don't. Not everything has to be a flippin orc. I almost said.
(48:03):
Anyways, but that's that's what I was getting at is like, yeah, there's a tasteful way of doing it and tasteful you know but I was just kind of like,
where does strange new world. When not where when at what point in the Star Trek timeline does strange new worlds take place 24th century 27th century, 23rd.
(48:27):
It's before Kirk took the enterprise. Okay, gotcha gotcha gotcha gotcha gotcha. Okay. So it's before Kirk becomes captain of the enterprise and he's like Lieutenant Kirk when he shows up.
Okay, very cool very cool.
Just briefly perusing the Shrek forever after Wikipedia page here. I remembering this movie now it's rumples still skin is in it. And it's it's Shrek is tired of being a family man and a celebrity longing for the days of wanting to be alone in the swamp and having
(49:00):
to see and rumples still skin comes along and tells him to, you know, his finger on a spindle or whatever the hell it's a rumples still skin story. Oh, I think I remember that. Yeah.
So Shrek five let me look here.
(49:21):
So,
yeah, we don't know who I hope they bring back a lot of the other people because man.
So, wow, really, fifth film was initially planned after the release of the second one. So this is planned all the way back then.
(49:44):
Wow, with a 2013 release date in mind, gee.
Well, we're going to get it in 2026 X number of years too late.
Do you want to you want to hear something else funny. You remember how I said they're trying to shove Zendaya but down everybody's throat.
Uh huh.
(50:06):
There's talks of
a Hancock to with Will Smith, as and Zendaya.
Yeah.
I'm like, why?
(50:27):
Some movies just need to be left alone.
Yeah, no sequels just leave alone.
It's like it's like suburban commando it's like you wouldn't want to sequel to that.
Don't get why would you don't give them Space Jam and New Legacy was bad enough, man. Don't give them ideas.
(50:50):
Well, and that's the thing is like studios need to learn sequels decades later don't work.
The only one I want is Ace Ventura three.
Why?
Because I want to see Jim Carrey come back and have fun.
Yeah, other than the fact that he would come back and he would only come back to have fun.
(51:11):
And I think he could put yeah other than the fact but
I would really like to see it.
Yeah, again, if
it's like he has said about Sonic and Sonic 2, 3 and 4.
Sonic 4 is not a thing just yet, but he has said every time as long as it's good as long as it's something that is going to peak my interest and blah blah blah blah.
(51:38):
As long as they add something to it for me or whatever, you know, and obviously out of the side of his mouth as long as they pay me the $20,000,000,000.
I know he's joking about that part because really he does want the creativity. I mean that man doesn't need.
At least I don't think I mean yeah I haven't seen him on any celebrity tabloids lately.
So but yeah, no, it would be fun. It would be interesting, especially since last year was the 30th anniversary of the first film.
(52:07):
It'd be fun.
But yes, the Bourbon Commando does not need a sequel this many years later.
The only reason I brought it up.
I recently watched it again.
You really? Yeah, I watched it. It was on.
I think it was Prime Video.
Probably I like that movie. It's a fun little interesting 1990 early 90s movie.
(52:32):
It was a movie where let's take this wrestling star here, put him into this role here and see what the hell kind of thing happens, man.
It was fun. It was interesting.
So yeah.
So there's that.
(52:55):
Yeah, I mean, pretty much I haven't haven't really been doing too much else other than just kind of watching stuff and just kind of
trying to knock out various projects and print everything I was trying to get printed and I still want to print a Megatron helmet.
Haven't quite gotten there yet. I think it'll fit my head on this print bed.
(53:22):
I'm like 90% sure.
But I want to print that Megatron helmet.
And I don't need a vocoder because I can do the voice. Oh, yeah.
Well, absolutely.
So,
(53:45):
still, I think that's I think it's about it on this episode.
I don't think anything else.
Oh, I think I'm good.
So I'm planning.
So long as all my, you know, health doesn't decline again and
all of my wrap with various projects, you know, continue.
(54:11):
I'm hoping to get to start the new MWIRE and get the next Cyber Dragon Ball episode recorded.
And I have it like pretty much scripted out.
As far as the Cyber Dragon Ball, the MWIRE, I've got kind of bullet point things saved for what I want to do.
(54:35):
Oh, cool.
So we shall see.
I see things kind of loosening up once May hits.
So I'm yeah, I'm my schedule is kind of not so I do right now.
And then once once May hits, I'm foreseeing I should be back and kind of full swing of these.
(54:57):
And I'm hoping to at least batch record some of these in the meantime, not so much MWIRE.
That'll be more of a live, like kind of more recent short show by comparison.
Like it'll be like 10, 15 minutes long.
I'm estimating.
And then Cyber Dragon Ball will be whatever it ends up being.
(55:21):
Live and in your face.
Yes, movie we can review.
That's right.
That's right.
Old shows.
Yes.
So we've got we're in the middle of Mutant March.
We just celebrated 12 years of the pullback.
Episode 575 will be online by the time you hear this most likely think I hope.
(55:46):
I don't know.
Hopefully.
So you're 2009.
I'm going to get to editing on 126, 127.
So you'll hear Sonic 1, Sonic 2, then we'll record Sonic 3 next week.
That'll be that trifecta.
And then I've got a couple other episodes that I've recorded.
(56:07):
And then we'll get into Colombo season two.
So that'll be that.
What else?
Once Toy Fair finally ends, even I will do a Toy Fair, a Toy Cast Toy Fair.
Boy breakdown or whatever.
I don't know.
So we got a bunch of stuff.
