Nothing? Yeah, I mean nothing. I did something to the
settings on this and now it's all whacked.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Why don't you do that?
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I don't know. I think I hit it by the chord.
What's up?
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Why I hear myself?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
You don't hear yourself?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I do hear myself.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Oh all right, that's weird. I mean it seems to
be doing its thing on here.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Do I still hear myself?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I still hear myself. You have a speaker on O.
Wait now it's gone. Oh okay, it's gone.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Now whatever whatever whatever? Who knows, shadow knows? The shadow knows?
Uh no, no, no, well, I ball, it's just.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Grows.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
It's just biology, Joe, Yeah, and biologies grows. It's a
valid point. It's a very valid point you make. Yeah,
tourist spots extinct jellyfish not seen in fifty years? Okay,
I mean, do we scour the entire ocean?
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Like?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
It's not wrong tracking these motherfuckers?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Right, it's a pretty big place and.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
There's parts that we can't even go to.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Right unless you're James Cameron.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I think that shit's fake.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
What James Cameron? No, he's real.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
No, have you ever met him?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
No, but I'm pretty sure he's real enough people believe
in him.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Okay, that's that's not a good way, but.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Pretty sure that's how it works. It's like Santa Claus, right, enough,
people believe in him, he's real.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
I mean, I guess, yeah, I got some bad news
for you, Joe. Nah nah nah nah pass.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I'll pass.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I'm not gonna believe you in anything you say. James
Cameron is real.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I believe. I've technically seen him in real life twice.
Of course you have, because we saw him at a
screen of Titanic, because my one of my best friends,
his grandmother was an extra nice and then one time
(03:05):
a comic on.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
So I mean, so I see, yeah, he's real.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I mean, because that doesn't mean he's real though. I mean,
like you can put an actor that protays James Cameron,
you know what I mean? I don't know, a I
AI makes it difficult to believe anything nowadays.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
It wasn't around when you were a kid.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
What I'm saying now though, Like they replaced this actor
they had as James Cameron, and we don't know if
he's around anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm pretty sure he is.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Nah, yeah, they have.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
They replaced him at some point in time.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
We'll never know, fair enough. It's a weird it's a
weird canspiracy.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Theory to have. But the James Cameron isn't real, so
fucking strange.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Right, It's just a pseudo. It's just like a pen
name for everybody. Like that's why he has so many
good movies. Like it's kind of a weird track record
that most other directors don't don't follow, even like even uh,
(04:28):
Christopher Nolan has a lot of good movies, but he's
got he's got something there that people don't like. It's true,
but for the most part, everybody likes James Cameron movies.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Even in the weird doc City Goes mm hmmm.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
It's just like a pen name, kind of like what
Stephen King did? Do people really like me or do
people just like my do people like my stories?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Or do people just like my name? And so just
a bunch of directors that are just testing that out.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
That's why you never see James Cameron do press other
than for Avatar.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
That's what he's been doing. Well. Everyone else is making
making movies for as James Cameron it's like the it's
like the James Bond of movie making. Yeah right, it's
just a moniker that you can be handed.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Right, and then you just test out scripts and stuff
and see if they're they're good. But somehow they're always good.
Now they say that, I question whether or not all
of his movies are actually good, because all I can
think of are just the good movies. Well, I mean,
(05:40):
technically I haven't seen The Way of Water, so I
don't really know if it's.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
A good movie or not.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I mean, the Avatar movies are all spectacular just to watch,
not visually, but or not just visually, but you know,
just in general. Mm hmm. That's not how you spell Cameron.
That's weird.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
I just let Google take the wheel.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Let's lest I can't. I'm trying to think of all
of his movies, but like a handful of them. I'm thinking,
do I know all of them? Let's see here.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
He's listed as a Is that a writer? No?
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Okay, that's just because he created the T one thousand. Okay,
it was listed as Moral Kombat one definitive edition.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Oh yeah, because that creator of one thousand. Yeah, he
has to give it, give it be given. Credit that way.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I just want to see directing.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
He directed Piranha too. I didn't know that. That's fucking
he wrote it too, apparently. Was it good? I mean
those movies are terrible, but they're like those like they're
those campy horror movies, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, but is it terrible good type of thing?
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was definitely better. It was the
best of all the sequels after Pana Pirana. The original
one was like literally made for like eleven dollars, and
then Pirana to the Spawning was was drastically better. When
(07:10):
I say drastically better, like it wasn't a fucking feet
of you know, of everything. I don't even were there
in that original series. Damn, that's a lot. Well, technically
the reboot, it's a reboot. Well no, that one was
(07:35):
the original, like it was part of the original one,
but there was there are they considering? Okay? So yeah,
Piranha three d uh from twenty ten was the re
was the like the reboot of the series. Okay, there
(08:00):
was only like three or four of them in the
original runs. Run oh three? Yeah, because this is is
that technically a sequel? I don't know, there's so so
weird with these fucking old ass horror movies. I mean,
if you look at it, what's wild. We'll talk about
(08:23):
direct I guess writing, written and directed by his first
movie in nineteen seventy eight, which was called Xeno Genus.
I don't think I've ever seen that before.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I don't think I've ever.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Heard of it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
A woman and an engineered man are sent that's an
ad okay, thank you, sent in a gigantic sentient ship
to search space for a place to start new life cycle.
Raj decides to take a look around the ship. He
comes across a gigantic robot cleaner. Combat ensues.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That's that's a synopsis, it says here.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Production. Cameron raised twenty thousand dollars from local dentists to
fund the film. Most of the film was shot in
his living room, as the methods of he used were
self taught.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Dude, the pictures of this are so wild.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
That's fucking ridiculous, dude.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
A couple of them look like almost like paintings, but
then you then the rest of them just looked like
they were shot on a handicam.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Oh my god, that's terrible. I wonder if this is
available anywhere.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
What does IMDb sometimes says things are available?
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, they're trying to be better about that.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Oh my god, this fucking had what pushes everything down?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Oh yeah, I love those. You're email sudden, it's like, oh.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Cool, I lost my place. I don't see anything, so
I have no idea if it's.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
A watch, yeah, I'll tell you the truth. Joe written
directed by him. He doesn't actually have a.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Lot what I was looking at mostly even just like
directed by him. That's it's an incredibly short list, but
it is full of just banger movies.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That's the thing for sure. Like you look at this list,
I mean the first two Zeno Genius right the Spawning.
Then you go from Pirana to the Spawning to the Terminator.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Mm hmm a.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
It's like the guy who we just watched make a
fish movie. Essentially many Jaws that could be used in
two different ways am I and I and m A
N Y because there's many of them, and there's there
were many anyhow, it goes comes out two years later
and makes the Terminator that's wild, yeah interesting, And then
(11:33):
like you said, he comes out does Aliens, which is
I mean arguably one of the best genre drawn, genre
switching sequels you could ever imagine. Then follows up with
that with The Abyss, which is fucking awesome and just
(11:53):
mind blowing from from the day it came out. Terminator
two Judgment Day continues his Arnald Schwarzenegger run with True Lies.
A handful of years later, comes out with Titanic, which
obviously biggest, one of the biggest movies I've ever ever made.
(12:18):
Then Avatar literally twelve years later. Yeah, right, And the
only reason it took twelve years is because he couldn't
perfect the technology needed to make the movie, yeah until then,
and even then he was like, it could get better,
which it then did.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yeah right, So that's what I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Like all the stuff that he's directed has just been
like banger after banger, Like he just really hones in
on just the one project he wants to do and
just makes a banger. And he's done some other stuff
in between here, but they were movies like one episode.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Of a TV show and then his documentary.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
But yeah, when you get right down to just the
movies that he's directed, only a handful and they're just bangers.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah. He did appear on Mad About You as himself though.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Nice I probably saw that too. He used to watch
that show.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
You know, Mike's seeing that shit, He's like, who the
hell is James Cameron? Yeah, I mean that's I mean
even the movies he wrote then didn't direct. There's a
bunch of good ones. I mean Rambo First Blood Part two.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Which I didn't even know that he It says he's
uncredited in that, right, No.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's co written. Was Sylvester Sloan because I believe he
did the first Was it the first screenplay? I think
it was the first screenplay if I remember quicktly, Yeah,
screenplay by James Cameron is still yeah, or he helped
him write the screenplay from the the story that he
(14:00):
was trying to they were trying to make. That's what
it was. I knew a screenplay related. They always give
you a writing credit when it's screenplay because that's technically
what they're using.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Fair I was looking, yeah, looking at the credits because
it lists Rambo First Part Blood, First Blood Part two
twice and says screenplay by and then the other one
says based on a movie written by uncredited.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, I don't know what that actually means.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Then, of course you do Aliens, and then for some reason,
Rambo First Blood Part two comes up again, and then Rambo,
but somehow Rambo comes after First Blood Part two, even
though Rambo was the I don't know what IMDb is
doing here.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Well when they say Rambo, is that the later one?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Actually this says video game. Now that I realize it.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
They gave him credit for the video game. That's funny.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
What says uncredited but based on a movie written by uncredited?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Oh, because it's it's supposed to be based on Rambo two?
Are Rambo First Blood Part.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Two just as Rambo I'm assuming part well, no, yeah,
part two, because this is the the imagery would be
from part two, not one. Oh yeah, there yea Rambo
video game is based on Rambo Part two.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
For the ne e s weird, Yeah, because like the
the naming of the Rambo movies was bizarre because the
first one isn't Rambo. The first one's First Blood, and
then it's Rambo First Blood Part two, then Rambo three,
(15:35):
and then in two thousand and eight they rebooted it
with Rambo and then Rainbow Last Blood, Rainbow Rambo Rainbow,
Rambo Last Blood, and then John Rambo was the is
the one that's still currently working on.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Still currently working on another Rambo movie.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yeah, it's wild.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
I gave up on that after Rambo. Actually, I never
did I even watch Rambo. I don't think I did.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
We saw it because he has the ram Betty where
he cuts that guy mostly in half.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Oh right, okay, so John Rambo I thought came out.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
No, No, that was the that was the other one.
Oh okay, yeah, and then other ones he did. Uh,
Strange Days, which is a fantastic movie with a bunch
of people in it, and has it is that the
one that has the bomb ass soundtrack? I think it
does what movie list.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Said, strange Oh strange Day. There it is.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
I think you had a really good Sony soundtrack in
between that.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Nope, I've never seen this movie.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
A black Mark marketeer tries to save a woman in
nineteen ninety nine Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Okay, it's a hard movie, you explain.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Okay, lots of terminator stuff, Titanic Terminator, Dark Angel, Terminator, RoboCop,
Versus Terminator.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
He produced Solaris really did he?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
That's dope.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I didn't realize that that's based on a novel. Yeah,
I did not know that.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
One of the main things I'd like to get around
to reading.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Huh, I'll lead a battle angel. He wrote that well,
co wrote it then produced it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Speaking of things that deserve a sequels mm hmm, like
a while ago.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Mm hmm. Whatever. Right, there's a note on Ghosts of
the Abyss.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
It says also reality camera system designer. What so he
designed a camera system for that documentary.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I wouldn't doubt it.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I thought that was a documentar about the cutting edge
of the movie. But it's a it's a move. It's
a move about movie the magic of movie editing.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I was like, dang, he was involved in cutting edge.
No wonder that move That first One's a fucking awesome
movie that nobody gives credit to. He is weirdly obsessed
with water though. That's pretty interesting. Yeah, I mean, you
gotta look at the Abyss. It's about water. It's also
(18:46):
about breathing. In was the liquid they used to breathe
It's like a.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Highly auctionated water, sort of like not water but southern
a substance or something like that.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Yeah, that was it, whatever it was, it was all.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
It was pink gu that you prey did.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
That's all I remember m and then yeah, so he
did like you know that shit, and then Titanic obviously,
and then he had a bunch of fucking well I
mean obviously one of his first movies was Piranha too.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Yeah, water, so I mean.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
When he comes out and makes the one of the
biggest movies of all time.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
See this right here proves that he's not a real
human being. What leave these pictures? So this is the
first one? Yeah, okay, so this is uh him for
Terminator right, okay, Oh, I'm sorry Aliens. That's Aliens then,
(19:48):
and that's an eight nineteen eighty seven, was say eighteen
eighty six, nineteen eighty six, and then two thousand and nine.
Somehow that's the same human being. Yeah, not the same
human being. That's a that's a stand in. And then
this guy.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Still looks like James Cameron clearly.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
No, that's what the media wants you to think. Joe, Nope,
I told you, I believe Nah, dude, Why does he
look like a fifty seven year old in nineteen eighty
six but looks like a forty seven year old in
two thousand and.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Nine in Benjamin Buttony.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
But then somehow in twenty twelve. He looks like he's
just hit sixty three. Bro, it makes no sense to me.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
I don't know Paul Red disease.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Nah No, that's that's multiple people, dude. That guy, that
guy looks like Cameron Crow more than Cameron James.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Cameron, Dorian graysm someone's got a.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Portrait of him and keeps fucking with him. Yeah, whatever, man,
I still stand by the fact that's multiple people. Nah. Yeah,
I think you're wrong.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I don't believe.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I do believe. I believe it. He's multiple people. But
those most people are making some good ass shit, so
I'll let it go fair enough. I'm not saying we
stop them from doing it. I'm just saying let's let
him go on, and when we get to Avatar eleven,
(21:19):
we'll finally be like, Hey, so guys, we got some
bad news for you. More James Cameron movies.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Oh no, bad news this.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
I was gonna tell you the secret. I'm not hey,
so okay, I don't know if we've ever talked about
this before.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Let's go.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Pokemon. Pokemon confuses me on how anybody's okay with this world.
It's littered with sentient monsters, right mm hm that just
roam free, battling each other, fighting humans, no problems, right.
(22:06):
They send a eleven year old out with a backpack
full of snacks and clean underwear who clearly has no
idea about Pokemon, even though he wants to be a
Pokemon trainer, just seems to know nothing about Pokemon. Yeah,
and his mom's like, all right, we'll have fun. What
(22:29):
that's the part of the world that you No, that's
just where it starts, man, Like, you know, terrifying. That
world would be in real.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Life, incredibly terrifying, and.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
These people are completely okay with it.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
I mean, you have to live in the world, so
I guess you would be okay with it and used
to it after a while.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Bro, Like what I mean?
Speaker 2 (22:53):
You have balloon creatures that are literally kidnapped kids and
steal their souls. There's a apparently history that Pokemon and
humans used to get married at one point in time.
Uh what other ones? Weird ones are there? Uh?
Speaker 3 (23:15):
God, I'm trying to remember anything else, because I know
there's a bunch of other weird shit that you can
read in Pokemon.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Entries and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
So cubone right, Yeah, a cubebone wears the skull of
his mom.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Yeah, that's why he's always depressed. Maybe you don't wear
the skull of your mom, maybe you wouldn't be so depressed.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, Like what the fuck, dude? Like, and then like
they evolved to have what their skin looks like, clothes,
like humanoid clothes.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Mister mind looks like a human even though that's a Pokemon.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah. And then like then then you have just like
the most like a born of all of them, is
like things like mimic you, where's a sack that looks
a lot like a Pikachu, but it's just a purple
cloud underneath.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Uh huh mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Then you have sentient trash bags.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
It's like, Bro, I guess if you were born in
that world. I guess it's just the world you're in,
but it's fucking from the outside terrifying.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
You have Pokemon gods, literally Pokemon that are gods that
I think if I recall, right, or like the creation
of Pokemon. But those things exist in the in this
world that you can capture.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, bro, I.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Guess, but you just basically captured god.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
What Broad's wild? I was like, I don't I don't
trust any of.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
This and then what do you eat? Like? That's the
other thing that that gets me.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Is like, Okay, are there other animals?
Speaker 2 (24:43):
There are other animals out there that are the ones
that you eat?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Yeah, because they make I mean, I don't know, dude.
It's like, and how do you make bread in cheese?
Because I've seen those as items? So is it milk take?
Is that milt take milk? Yeah? Could be bro bro terrifying, terrifying.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
I mean from an outsider, definitely terrifying. From an insider
would just be another day.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
That's why I understand Justice Smith's character from Detective Pinkachu
because that outside world would be horrific mm hmm. And
it's like, oh yeah no. And by the way, this
one can look like anything it wants, so you know,
and for some reason, visually you can definitely tell, but
(25:37):
people don't ever tell mm hmm. I'm like, hey, well
that one has regular human eyes, which is also unsettling.
That one has little black thoughts for eyes. Shoot that one.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
That's to say nothing of psychic type Pokemon like their
psychic type they could control people.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
They can all you know, they can manipulate people. It's like,
what are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Also the amount of human death that must happen in
that world just collateral damage must be wild could be yeah, bro, dude.
And then just the like the lack of like law
enforcement in that is just crazy because you have Team
(26:23):
Rocket right, clearly they work for this organization who should
all be held responsible for certain things, like when they
uproot an entire stadium, right and then end up dropping
it in the middle of nowhere, Like that's property damage
at the highest order. And also I'm pretty sure kidnapping,
which they've done several times yep, of not just of
(26:46):
like Pikachu and other Pokemon, but like children.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yeah, they're a mafia, They're a crime syndicate.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Right, It's like, dude, these bike cop ladies have to
do something. There's gotta be more police or something because
they're not. They're clearly not doing the job needed to
be done. I don't know if you need to clone
more of them or whatever it is, but wow, that's wild.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Think of the health and technology in that world too.
You have like gems that can like revive people or things,
and then you have sprays that can heal things. Like
you're not just getting bandage, you're literally just getting hit
with some for breeze and just being like you're okay,
get out there.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Well, also, you have these mechanical balls that somehow go
from this little size to figure size and then somehow
suck in a building sized monster yep, that you can
later then throw out.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
M it's somehow able to store it in such a
small space, it's like and supposedly like also have like
a little like a little terrarium in there that it.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Can survive in.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Yeah, because they just like he's just walking around a
bunch of pokemon just in while not really anything. It's
only like he can only hold like what six or.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Fag the amount of energy that he's just strapped in
a belt to that must have to be in there.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
To do all that, like literal like nuclear weapons. It's
attached to his belt, right, And then when he unfurls whatever,
monsters in this thing is literally like the most death
dealing creatures in the world, Like he throws out a dragons.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Of gods and yet so this thing, this catcher can
somehow contain God.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, It's like, bro, you guys are using the technology wrong.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
They're using it for what they can use it for.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I guess man like do some other work or something
like geez loise it is. I mean, there's gotta be
there's there's someone's got some regulations in there, like there's
gotta be some stuff we gotta change, like and also
transportation system. They just send him off. He's walking willy
nilly through the forest.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
It's like, bro, you could have like a self driving
vehicle that drives this kid around.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
They could, because that's a weird.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
It's another weird thing of technological wise, like they have
like cars, regular stuff in these things bicycles. But it's
like with all of the engineering and technology that goes
into capturing Pokemon, you would think this would be like
an interplanetary species.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Of being able to do stuff well like hoverboards. Nah,
we've got bicycles, not electric bicycles, pedally ass bicycles like
use your own power bicycles, misty powered bicycles Like no, dude,
electric bikes not no, not a thing electric anything. No,
you're trying to tell me you can make a collapsal
(29:46):
orb that can suck in a fucking essential god, but
you can't make a fucking self powered bike mm or
something that floats mm hm. And then then you got
people floating around in hot air balloons. Yeah, it's like, brother,
y'all need to focus a little harder on less of
(30:06):
the taming of the giant monsters that are everywhere, and
maybe just evolving your society up beyond me.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
I would say that they've already successfully tamed the monsters, Like,
you know, you don't have things that are just as
far as I'm aware, is stomping through villages or cities
or anything. So you've got that pretty under control. So like, yeah,
where's the rest of the technology go? Or it's just
all research just into Pokemon and that's it.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
And and the research is sending eleven year old out
into the fucking woods by himself with a fucking electric mouse.
What the fuck is wrong with you people?
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Well, I mean that's comparable to back in the day
when you know, when we were younger, and it was
just like, all right, go I'm going to a friend's house. Yeah,
the friend lives like five six miles away, Going to
hop on my bike and go and go, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Do stuff. Yeah, Joe, when you're riding your bike, did
you run? Did you go through a forest that was
full of fucking bats?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
If I lived in uh, North Dakota, probably I would
have that's fair, I guess. But in Arizona, you know,
you have to deal with the fucking heat, so it's
a different thing.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
I just don't know, man, I just I don't won't
get it. And then you see some of these creatures
and you're like, first off, how are you not shitting
your pants constantly?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Because again, you're used to it seeing these things.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I guess, man, But it's just I'm like, dude, can
you imagine just like be able to take somebody who
doesn't know anything and just like throw them in a
Pokemon world and see what happens, Like watch their just
brain explode?
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Oh that would be terrifying when common every day for
eleven year old just be like, no, dude, it's a
charges art.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
It's just don't even know. And I just be like, no,
that's a giant, fucking fire breathing flying lizard.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
When I'm talking about it, I'm like, I don't care
what you call it. I've seen Godzilla. Yeah, what, bro?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
How is this normal for you? How would you tame
that thing? What the hell?
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Well? He barely tended he basically you know, Char's art
felt bad for him.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Yeah, right, and then the fact that they just evolve
like that. Yeah, you're like, okay, hey, I want you
to be something different. Now here's a stone and you
just rub a stone on it, and it's just like,
bua evolve.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Yeah, there's some of those that just don't make no
sense either, like where they go from m h. It's
like and then like the ones that like turn into
like what looked to be a humanoid from like not
humanoid things. It's like, bro, no, you know someone's trying
to fuck that plant lady for sure you talk about
pokemon and humans getting married, it's like, bro, yeah, right,
(32:50):
was his name Rosalita or whatever? Right, Yeah, it's like, bro,
you know, people trying to get up and set them pedals.
M It, come on, man a, I'm pretty sure it's
like decophelia of some sort because it's a plant. But
bro uh uh yeah no. I was suming with this
(33:12):
the other day and I was like, how are people
okay with this? In the baseline one, The whole thing is, yes,
I know when you and I were growing up, our
parents will be like, yeah, I head over five miles
away to your friend's house. That's honestly, that is a
lost thing nowadays because of terrible people and stuff, right,
(33:32):
all right, that aside and the fact that nobody tried
to like stop Team Rocket, like Jesse and James from
terrorizing this eleven year old, Let's just skip over that.
His mom just gives him a backpack full of clean
chonies and some snacks and then lets him wander into
the forest. Don't give him a map, don't tell him, Hey,
(33:56):
you should probably stick to the roads. Nah, just let
him go.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
It's like, it's a right of passage in this world.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Bro, you don't care about your child at that point.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Again, it's a right of passage in this world. No,
they probably do care. It's just that's what it is.
And it's one of those if he if he dies,
he dies, you know, he wasn't meant to be. I guess,
I don't know. That could be reason why there's not
very many people in this world too, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Because they get eaten or died. Yeah, they get killed
by accident.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
Only the strongest survive Team.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Rocket Stadium on you. Like, I don't know, man, it's
fucking crazy. Mm hmm, Yeah, I don't. It's just like
and like you think about the like, yeah, I know,
as turned out to be like a really good Pokemon
trainer or whatever. Right, he shouldn't have he got lucky
because he should have been dead like the first like
(34:53):
three hours of this adventure, like he was lost in
the forest, he stole some girl's bike, he got electrocuted
like fifteen times in the first like four episodes. It's like, dang, bro,
you got you got lucky so many times? Yeah, because
you should be a rotting corpse being fed on by
(35:14):
fucking these things in the forest because nah nah yeah yeah.
And like money doesn't seem to be a thing in
this world. Now.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
That was another thing I was gonna mention. It's like
where do you like, Okay, it's time to eat somewhere.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
You know, what do you pay with?
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Like I never watched too much of the original anime,
so I have no idea. They never really played much
of the game either.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
They don't mention money at all, Like he just goes
and like money, Like he has to get Pikachu some
help after like he gets all hurt and stuff, right
goes to the hospital. There's no mention of like, hey,
what's your copey, They're just like, yeah, we'll help out
Poke Assurance. Yeah, doum like bro and Hen he's eating
(36:01):
there's eating food. I'm like, and then Brock has like
just got a bunch of food and like, how how
a that looks?
Speaker 2 (36:07):
Like me?
Speaker 1 (36:07):
I'm not gonna ask where you got it from, but
how did you pay for any of this?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Maybe it's just a star trek for society, I guess, dude, just.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Like, oh I need this. We can only have this though,
I'm like, well, OK, that's good. It's like, what the
fuck is happening? It's so wild to me. It's like
it has like these weird restrictions, but then it has
no restrictions. And I'm like, y'all definitely just made this
willy nilly and have just been piecing together for years.
(36:38):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, Because there's just no way, dude,
how many how many dead ashes do you think there
are just littered throughout the forests and deserts of this
fucking planet.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
There's gotta be hundreds of thousands, if not millions, over
the years. Like said, it never feels like again I've
ever played the games, but I've seen people play the games.
My brother used to play the games, and there's not
very many people in those in those villages and there.
You know, there are cities I'm aware of, but like,
does never seem to be a whole lot of people
(37:11):
in those in those places.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
Either not it's all cowering so they have to live underground.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Or some ship, or they're just not that many people.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Well, just maybe have mega cities. We don't ever get
to see.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
It's possible.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
I mean, if you throw in the movie into the
canon of things, there is a big city that a
lot of people live in, and so you have you
do have smaller villages and cities that not a lot
of people live in. But we're just going off the games.
As far as I'm aware, there's no large cities in
any of the games.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Well, the new game where the new game is coming out,
Pokemon Legends z A. It takes place in the major city, Okay,
but it has and it has Pokemon in it because
there's Pokemon safe zones. Then there's like Pokemon battle zones,
like you can go there and that's like what you
do is like you can go in there and like
(38:10):
battle Pokemon or whatever. And then there's like zone where
you go and you can like there's wild ish Pokemon
in there that you can like capture the train. Okay,
but I'm like, again, what are these buildings made of?
Because you know they're getting destroyed on a daily basis.
Do they reprint them?
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Again?
Speaker 3 (38:30):
They have to have some sort of technology that is
just very strong they can withstand all this stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
I need answers, Joe, because it don't make sense to me,
and I don't like.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
It doesn't make sense to me, and I just ignore it.
That's fair mm hmmm, because at the end of the day,
it's just a capture thing.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
That's it. Capture thing, battle things, that's it, which is.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Just terrifying in general. Like and also putt an eleven
year old in a gladiator arena to fight another monster.
It seems crazy to me too, But again, I guess
that's just this world how they've evolved up m I
don't know, they're just why, how how are you okay
(39:21):
to this? Like what happened in your world? This is
where you're at.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
I'm sure there's lower somewhere that explains that.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
And has there ever been wars.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
No idea?
Speaker 1 (39:33):
Because like, can you imagine what that devastation to be?
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Like the weaponization of Pokemon? Yeah, dude, I mean you
literally have pokemon that blow.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Up, yeah, which are fine. Then they're like they're just
walking away. It's like you just combusted, brom How are
you okay? Also you just blew up all those people?
M Like are they throwing poke balls out at each other? Like?
(40:05):
I don't know could Man, that's so wild to me.
What a what a lawless fucking world that place must be.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
It's very strange.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
Mm hmm, I just don't I was like, and how
do you have families in this How are you okay?
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Like, I don't know, man, Again, we're just going around
in logic. It's just that the world is what it is,
and everybody within that world is used to that world.
If they went to somewhere else, they would think it
would hear if they went to hear it, they would
think a regular dog is strange to have one that
doesn't repeat its species name.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
All the time.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
Yeah, dude, I don't know. That's just crazy. I mean
if you look at the world of Star Wars, it'd
be pretty crazy too. Like you got these weird things
that can they can move things with their mind and
like to have light swords. But then also you have
giant monsters that people are just okay with like being
around It's like no, no, but.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
It makes more sense to It makes sense again within
that world. But to me, it makes sense even within
this world because it's space. Like you have you accept
that things exist, that those things exist, because not everything's
going to exist the way it does here on Earth.
So of course there's gonna be other aliens that don't
look anything like us out there.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
It's so weird to me. I don't know, M, Like,
people are just okay with this. I'm like, I don't
know if I could be able to survive.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
And then they're cute looking, they have big eyes.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
That's That's the other thing too, is like there's a
bunch of them like, oh look how cute it is,
and then they just like snatch your face off. I'm like, M,
how are you outside functioning right now? How are you
not just cowering in a corner when you have like
the realizations doesn't ever click in, Like.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
Because you grew up with it, that's wild, dude. You
grew up with it. You grow up with it, and
so it's just normal and you're used to it.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
If you grow up you know what I mean? No, exactly,
if you grow up mortality rate. It must just be
fucking astronomical at that.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
Point, once you hit a certain age. Yeah, I'm sure
it is.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
They're like, oh, he made to fifteen.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Like mortality rate for infants is probably pretty good.
Speaker 3 (42:30):
Again, with like all the healing technology that they have,
it has to be pretty damn good. Like, infant mortality
rates have to be very low. But once you get
to the age where you go out to find your
part in the world, if you're wandering around the woods,
you know, capturing Pokemon, it's got to be a pretty
high mortality rate. That's why people just, you know, they
(42:52):
don't really get attached to their kids. I don't know,
they just send them out and if they die, they die.
Speaker 4 (43:01):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
That's so crazy.
Speaker 2 (43:06):
I mean, see again, that's why you just stop thinking
about it. You can just take it for what it is.
You just like, look their pocket monsters and little monsters.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
Don't read the you know, the settings behind it about
how something where's its mom's skull or kidnaps kids or
any other thing, or the fact that you even have
ghost type Pokemon, which insinuates that there is some sort
of afterlife or possible after life, or even if they
are ghost how are they created? If their spirits, does
(43:39):
that mean they were alive at one point in time,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
And I'll think about it.
Speaker 2 (43:44):
And it's it's CP is really low, so it becomes candy.
Speaker 1 (43:49):
That's the other thing too, is like are you just
murdering these things for candy or is it like a
it gets sent off somewhere and then you get exchanged
for candy.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
I mean, if you want to believe that it goes
to some ranch somewhere, sure, if you want to believe that,
I'm okay with that. You want to believe that this
thing is fed into a candy chipper and just spits
out a tootsy roll, I'm okay with that too.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
Then you feed that candy to another version of itself,
which means they're all cannibals.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
I mean they have to eat somehow.
Speaker 3 (44:22):
That was the other thing that we hadn't addressed yet,
how to poke? What do pokemon eat? Yeah, some of
them are grass type. Some I'm sure eat grass.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
No, because if they're grass type, they're usually made of grass.
But that's what I mean, like that means they're cannibals.
On another Oh my god, dude, this is I don't.
I don't like I don't like it. I can't stop
thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (44:43):
Fish, yes, mine fish and pokemon fish.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
So bal, I don't. I don't like it. I don't
appreciate it. I can't stop thinking about it. It's terrifying
to me. How are you people just okay with it?
Like you shouldn't be a okay with any of this.
It's all it's it's so flawed and yet so terrifying.
But everyone's just like, yeah, normal life. Mm hm, what
(45:13):
was your history?
Speaker 2 (45:14):
Like?
Speaker 1 (45:15):
Like that's what I want to know, Like what the read?
Speaker 2 (45:18):
I'm sure that there is some sort of his like
extended lower somewhere on it just.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Unnerving, fair enough, and yet you're going to go to
an expo for it later today. I just like shine.
I just like pieces of cardboard pretty art on them,
But I say, it's a page. All the time you
look at one of these things, it's like, how tall
do you think this thing is?
Speaker 2 (45:46):
I mean you realize, like a charge art is like
eight nine feet tall or something like that.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
Yeah, and it's like bro, But then you like a
charmander for example, right, it's still.
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Probably like five six feet tall.
Speaker 1 (45:58):
Do you know what's the quick. Can you imagine turning
a corner and seeing a fucking orange lizard with a
fire tail.
Speaker 3 (46:04):
It's a good question, actually, would be sure that unless, unless, unless, unless,
Ash was incredibly tall, that chartmander must actually be shorter.
Speaker 1 (46:13):
Charmander, i'm guessing, is probably like three ish feet tall, right, man, man,
man and man? Then what's the what's the middle one?
Speaker 3 (46:23):
So charmander is typically I'm pretty sure that's two feet tall,
so six.
Speaker 1 (46:29):
Meters six No, six meters six meters.
Speaker 2 (46:34):
Sorry, I'm reading that wrong. Point six meters.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
Point six meters, just less than three feet because the
meters three point.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
But yeah, chartmander's typically two feet tall, which is approximately
point six meters.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
Then he evolves into the chart milion.
Speaker 1 (46:53):
Which seems like they should be close like six feet
at that point, right, five six feet because they're I
think they're.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
This says three feet seven inches.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
Typically, how short is Ash.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
Has to be like five foot something?
Speaker 1 (47:09):
He like five foot two right, there's no way.
Speaker 2 (47:14):
Uh well, let's let's feed into here. Let's see Ash
catch up four foot seven yes is christ Yeah? Okay,
and I guess he's a ten year old.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
Yeah, yeah, I'm like because if you're if you're saying
that Charmander was two feet tall. That thing came up
to his nipples, so like he can't be that much
taller than him.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
I guess canonically, chars are it is five foot seven.
That seems short.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
It does seem like are we talking like Earth sizes?
Because that makes no sense to me.
Speaker 3 (47:53):
Apparently mewtwo is six seven, Blastoids is five to three.
Over these things, what the fuck? Vis or somehow six
seven as well? Store relaxes six eleven. Pikachu is one
foot four inches.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
There's no way there's Yeah, someone needs to fix the
art because there's no way a Pikachu almost half the
size of a charmander. Mm hmm, Like he comes up
to this charmanders like hip. Someone don't know math, That's
what I'm saying, Like that don't make no sense. No,
(48:32):
you'all need to rethink your world, fix your sizes first off,
all right, then we can talk about all the other
logistics involved in like having children wander around capturing monsters
and technology that should be basically used other ways, and
can you put a human in one of those? Does
that ever happen?
Speaker 2 (48:53):
God? Some of these are like way shorter I've actually
never paid attention to how big some of these are.
Speaker 3 (48:59):
A squirrel is only one foot eight inches a foot like,
think of how tall that is compared to like you remain.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
That is tiny.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
That's what I'm saying. It makes no sense. The world
the pokemon is flawed in many ways, and one of
them is definitely measurements, because I don't think they have
proper measuring.
Speaker 3 (49:19):
A katterpy is one foot long. That's terrifying because that's
a giant worm. You just have a giant worm coming
at you. It's one foot long.
Speaker 1 (49:25):
No wonder, Misty was fucking terrified. Can you imagine that
thing charging you?
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Big bugs coming after me?
Speaker 1 (49:32):
Have you seen this video this fucking tarantula walk into
this lady's yard.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
Oh no, I saw a video of the new stickbug
that they found somewhere.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Can you guess where it's found, Joe, I'll give you
three guesses.
Speaker 2 (49:46):
It was Australia, Yes, it was, of course it was.
Speaker 1 (49:50):
If you're gonna discover a new terrifying bug, you know
where it's coming from one of two places, Australia or Florida,
which is basically just Australia. From here in the United state. Yeah, okay,
I'm just saying, like, that's that's what's gonna happen. What's
gonna happen is the insect. If it's an insect, it's
(50:10):
gonna be found in Australia. If it's some kind of
like amphibian creature or terrifying fish monster, it's gonna be
found in Florida.
Speaker 2 (50:20):
Oh yeah, I believe that.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
And then eventually it's gonna be found in the other
because that's how it works. There's a direct portal of
terrifying from one of those from the Australia's back to
each other. That's what I'm just saying. And I saw
the picture of it. I instantly closed the window. I
was like, I don't need to see this. I don't
know why I clicked on it, but I did. And
(50:44):
then I was like, well, that was a mistake. Let's
just get back out of that. So yeah, I don't know.
I've been wondering. I've been like in page does She's
like no, I don't really care. I'm like, so you
you're okay with all of this? Because we started to
rewatch the cartoon the O g One and like, I
didn't watched it since it came out and like I
(51:04):
was apparently dumb back then or just didn't care. And
then we're watching and I'm like, wait, hold on, Ash
is eleven years old. He can't even literally he can't
even like get a job.
Speaker 2 (51:19):
And yet he's running around a forest.
Speaker 3 (51:21):
You're not gonna go on, he's gone from like it's
not even that he's running around the forest, because some
of that even insinuates that maybe he like comes back
at night, like he just comes out to adventure and
then comes back. No, he's like literally like, this is
what I want to do for my life. I want
to be a Pokemon trainer. All right, eleven year old,
You've you've decided your life. Go forth into the world.
Speaker 2 (51:44):
You that's it. There's no there's no colleges.
Speaker 3 (51:49):
There's no like Pokemon college that you could have gone
to get a Poka you know, poke university.
Speaker 2 (51:56):
And that's the other thing too, scholarship and learn poke
a training.
Speaker 1 (52:00):
He is so unprepared about being in the world of
Pokemon that he has to rely on his Poke Dex
to tell him what a basic Pokemon is. It's like, bro,
you you do not study this at all?
Speaker 2 (52:12):
No?
Speaker 1 (52:12):
Did you just wake up one day. You know what
Pokemon training it is.
Speaker 3 (52:15):
Well, I think his dad was one, if I recall
right from the show, his dad was one, but you
never see his dad.
Speaker 2 (52:20):
I don't know what happens to it.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
Yeah, and also for someone who wants to devote their
life to this because of who their father is, right,
you'd think this motherfucker would know a little more about Pokemon.
He has no goddamn thing, a fucking thing. He doesn't
know anything about Pokemon. He is the dumbest in the world.
No wonder everyone likes Gary because it looks like Gary
actually did some fucking research. Ashes out here just fucking
(52:46):
just wing it a fucking wishing a prayer, dude, Like
how how like Joe, if you wanted to go do something,
you'd probably look it up. Well yeah, you know, not
just be handed look it up.
Speaker 3 (53:03):
I'd study it just to see if it's something that
I would want to do or can do in general,
you know, like how expensive are these things?
Speaker 2 (53:11):
But then again, I don't know if they worry about
money in this world.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
Clearly they don't worry about a lot of things in
this world. Because his mom's distraught, Like, oh yeah, I
can't believe he's going out there. I think she's more
just like, oh, I'm gonna be a loane now because
like my husband apparently has been seriously gone, because he's
never fucking mentioned early on. Ash is just out on
an adventure and then she finds out that he's, like,
(53:34):
you know, in this city, which seems like it should
be far away, but he gets there pretty quickly. It's like,
I get it. He's trying to find Pokemon. Yeah, but
like also, like shouldn't one of the things you tell
him besides make sure to change your underwear every day
is stick to the roads, don't cut through the forest.
Speaker 2 (53:57):
How are you gonna find the best Pokemon?
Speaker 1 (53:59):
He doesn't, by the way he stumbles upon them at best.
Technically he should be dead already, but somehow he survived.
It makes no sense, and I don't like it. It
bothers me on many levels, and it bothers me. I
(54:22):
people are okay with it.
Speaker 2 (54:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (54:25):
Granted I don't know much about the games other than
what I've learned because I didn't ever never really played
the Pokemon games. But it just seems that like it's
gotta be like a dark Soul's type of universe, right,
there's just corpses and ghosts of like just chilling everywhere.
(54:46):
Like it's probably not the same ash over and over again, right,
but there's definitely dead eleven year old just chilling somewhere
in like the desert.
Speaker 2 (54:52):
If every kid is being treated the same like this, yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (54:56):
Like brow man, it's just I don't get it.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
Is that what the world is just evolved around too,
is everything's Pokemon is.
Speaker 3 (55:06):
Pokemon is kids capturing these monsters and battling these monsters.
That's what this world is is centered on. It's basically
just like like this whole world is centered on UFC fights, Yeah,
gladiator fights and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (55:20):
With eleven year olds. Yeah, you're trying to tell me
an eleven year old can unleash a fucking fire breathing dragon,
which apparently is only five foot eleven or eleven, Yeah, like.
Speaker 2 (55:31):
Which is eye tower over that thing would just be like, no,
get the fuck out of.
Speaker 1 (55:35):
Here, bonk on his fucking nose, Get out of here,
fire lizard, right, get scadadle. But then these creatures have
magical abilities because they can summon like all sorts of shit,
like a pigeon can make a tornado shoot out of
its wings. It's like bro blastoids can just produce water.
Speaker 2 (56:00):
Produce water out of cannons in its.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Shell, devastating effects too. But you're talking about like these
Pokemon battles, right, you have Ash just chilling right behind
Pikachu when fucking I don't know whoever Gary's on the
other side, Unleash is a fucking sandshru Right, those are
I don't think those he even never say, Andrew, I'm
not too sure. Again, I'm not an expert. And then
(56:23):
the san Chrew throws a giant boulder at Pikachu. Right,
Pikachu dodges it.
Speaker 2 (56:29):
Where's the bouldergling?
Speaker 1 (56:30):
Thank you? Ashes? Back there? Misty's hanging out, Braca is
just like goggling at ladies who are apparently thirty years
older than him. That makes no sense. And they all
look the same, so that's creepy too. They're all sisters
or cousins or whatever. And then they have a crowd, right.
Do you ever see a shield pop up to protect
(56:52):
these people?
Speaker 2 (56:53):
No, unless it's already there. That's the thing. It couldn't
just be like some sort of technology that they have.
It's it's invisible.
Speaker 3 (57:00):
Invisible shields, you know, it's a technology that exists to
protect the crowd, and we just never see it because
because it's just an accepted thing in this world that
they don't explain.
Speaker 1 (57:14):
Bro, it's like I don't I don't get it, I
don't understand it. Like I need to find a Pokemon
expert and be like, hey, explain this to me. I
have thousands of questions. And if your logic doesn't start
lining up pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (57:31):
Well, here's the question that we we haven't even gone
in too yet.
Speaker 3 (57:34):
Like, first off, he calls himself a trainer, so he
goes out and captures wild pokemon.
Speaker 2 (57:38):
But what does it? What training has ever shown? No
training has ever shown.
Speaker 3 (57:42):
So you literally have wild creatures that you've now stored
in a ball that are just suddenly docile the moment
that you throw.
Speaker 2 (57:49):
Them into a ball.
Speaker 1 (57:50):
No, actually, there's something that there are some that don't,
that aren't docile and that don't agree with being let out.
That's I've seen that. But the two to your point,
there's a little bit like the train he does, like
he releases them and then like they communicate the best
you can between something. It just says its name over
and over again in different variations. But then you're like,
(58:10):
all right, cool, hey, I know like you're like a
couple of minutes ago you were a wild bug. I'm
gonna let you out of this ball. How about you
attack that bug?
Speaker 2 (58:21):
Right? And that's just they just accept it somehow.
Speaker 1 (58:25):
Is there like some like form of like training in
the ball that they're like getting indoctrinated into just being
okaynation exactly because like I'll tell you right now, that
thing just attacked me. I use this electric mouse to
make it unconscious, and then I threw a ball, magic
(58:47):
technology ball at what could be a corpse here in
a couple of seconds, pulls it in there. Maybe is okay?
Maybe not okay? Do I like when it's in the ball?
I rub that Yeah, there we go just like put
you near it.
Speaker 2 (59:03):
Raid some for breeze on it some yeah, and now
it's suddenly okay.
Speaker 1 (59:08):
And it's like, well, hey, I know you're the one
that made me be all hurt in like half dead
and then you yeah you get drive. Yeah, I guess
I'll help you out now, I'll be your friend. M h.
It's like, no, and let you let me have this ball.
I'm gonna fucking murder you.
Speaker 2 (59:26):
I'm friend, Pokemon gets to gets to pal around with
you outside.
Speaker 1 (59:31):
The ball because he's angry and he zaps you every
single time. It's like, bro, you're not training ship m h.
I don't know how you got like, I know, eventually,
like he got better at things. I'm not too sure how,
because I think it's all. I think literally all of
what we've seen in the Pokemon show is all of
like a dream he's had in a coma because he's like, uh,
(59:53):
missing two limbs and he's just in a hospital somewhere
and they're inducing him into this coma because if he
comes up, if he wakes up, he's gonna be an
extrutiating pain and be most of most of a just
amputee corpse.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
One day, he's just gonna realize that lamp in the
corner is is really weird, then realize that, yeah, it
wakes up and it's just been a coma this whole time.
Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Yeah, dude, he's a strapped machine. He's a fifty seven
year old fucking corpse god. So there's pumping in fluids
into him to keep him alive. For some strange reason, Pokemon.
Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
Is actually just some autistic kids, Yeah, are you dreaming
at a snow globe.
Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:00:30):
Like well like they're like yeah, electric mouse, Like what
the fuck is wrong with him?
Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
Mm hmm. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:00:38):
I'm just saying it. Just all of it bothers me,
and I don't know anybody enough. I don't know anybody
who knows enough about it that to ease my mind
about certain.
Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
Things, You're gonna have to go read, go go go
read the lower.
Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
Because like watching the show, nobody's helpful. Most everybody's an asshole,
and the people who are helpful are either the nurses,
the cops, or some hippie in the forest helping out
abandoned pokemon. It's like, where are the altruistic people? Where
(01:01:15):
the good people? Because everyone's a bunch of fucking jerks
and nobody cares about I don't care about children whatsoever,
but I know you shouldn't send them off from the
forest to fight monsters on their own. And then the
other thing, too, is at one point Ash catches up
(01:01:40):
some I camera which Pokemon it was, and it gets
zapped away and he's like what happened? And they're like, well,
you already have five, you can't have six, only you
can only I think it's five and then he's like
he didn't know that. It's like, bro, what how do
you not know this?
Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
And who's keep tabs on this?
Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
So I guess Professor Oak the guy who sends him
out into the wild with just a handful of poke
balls and a just I guess an Ada boy. I
don't even know if he gives him anything other than
the Poka dex an electric mouse and fucking a handful
of poke balls, but he will then like they get
(01:02:22):
zapped to his lab and he's like, no, I'll take
care of it and if you ever want it, we
can transfer one for the other. And I'm like, no
one explained to this to him. And the only reason
he knows this now is because he stumbled upon Misty
won't leave alone because he's straight bike after stealing it.
It's like, bro, unpreparedness is one thing, but not telling
(01:02:45):
this kid the basics of things. What if Misty wasn't
around and that thing just zapped away? He would be
at the beach to like, where the fuck's my Pokemon at? Again?
Sheer luck this kid's alive, and sheer luck that he's
made it as far as he did to another fucking island.
(01:03:05):
Somewhere because he moves from one region to another. And
then the whole evolution thing just drives me insane. I know,
we barely touched on that, because like one Pokemon that's
found here has a different, completely different evolution in another area.
And then there's all these other different monsters that are
(01:03:26):
here that somehow aren't anywhere else. But some of them
are there and some there's variations. I'm my it is
nothing makes sense there.
Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
Nope. And again that's why you just don't think about it.
Speaker 3 (01:03:40):
You just collect shiny you know, in your case, shiny
cardboard with awesome pictures. If you play the game, you
just collect things with high numbers, and that's it. Don't
read into the lore, don't think about it, just do stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
I can't do that. It's it bothers me. I don't
like I don't like any of it. I don't I
don't appreciate it, and I think people should revolt. I'm
just saying I'm just I'm just throwing it out there.
Do how do do you? But I'm just saying I'm
(01:04:17):
just saying, all right, that's it for this week's episode
comes naturally, we have been Joe. I've been Cody, and
as usual, you fuckers just came naturally.
Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
Bye.
Yeah, what's a happening?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Nothing that's happened.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Nothing? Yeah, I mean nothing. I did something to the
settings on this and now it's all whacked.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Why don't you do that?
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I don't know. I think I hit it by the chord.
What's up?
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Why I hear myself?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
You don't hear yourself?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I do hear myself.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Oh all right, that's weird. I mean it seems to
be doing its thing on here.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Do I still hear myself?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I still hear myself. You have a speaker on O.
Wait now it's gone. Oh okay, it's gone.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Now whatever whatever whatever? Who knows, shadow knows? The shadow knows?
Uh no, no, no, well, I ball, it's just.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Grows.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
It's just biology, Joe, Yeah, and biologies grows. It's a
valid point. It's a very valid point you make. Yeah,
tourist spots extinct jellyfish not seen in fifty years? Okay,
I mean, do we scour the entire ocean?
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Like?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
It's not wrong tracking these motherfuckers?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Right, it's a pretty big place and.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
There's parts that we can't even go to.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Right unless you're James Cameron.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I think that shit's fake.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
What James Cameron? No, he's real.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
No, have you ever met him?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
No, but I'm pretty sure he's real enough people believe
in him.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Okay, that's that's not a good way, but.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Pretty sure that's how it works. It's like Santa Claus, right, enough,
people believe in him, he's real.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
I mean, I guess, yeah, I got some bad news
for you, Joe. Nah nah nah nah pass.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I'll pass.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I'm not gonna believe you in anything you say. James
Cameron is real.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I believe. I've technically seen him in real life twice.
Of course you have, because we saw him at a
screen of Titanic, because my one of my best friends,
his grandmother was an extra nice and then one time
(03:05):
a comic on.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
So I mean, so I see, yeah, he's real.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I mean, because that doesn't mean he's real though. I mean,
like you can put an actor that protays James Cameron,
you know what I mean? I don't know, a I
AI makes it difficult to believe anything nowadays.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
It wasn't around when you were a kid.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
What I'm saying now though, Like they replaced this actor
they had as James Cameron, and we don't know if
he's around anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm pretty sure he is.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Nah, yeah, they have.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
They replaced him at some point in time.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
We'll never know, fair enough. It's a weird it's a
weird canspiracy.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Theory to have. But the James Cameron isn't real, so
fucking strange.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Right, It's just a pseudo. It's just like a pen
name for everybody. Like that's why he has so many
good movies. Like it's kind of a weird track record
that most other directors don't don't follow, even like even uh,
(04:28):
Christopher Nolan has a lot of good movies, but he's
got he's got something there that people don't like. It's true,
but for the most part, everybody likes James Cameron movies.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Even in the weird doc City Goes mm hmmm.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
It's just like a pen name, kind of like what
Stephen King did? Do people really like me or do
people just like my do people like my stories?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Or do people just like my name? And so just
a bunch of directors that are just testing that out.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
That's why you never see James Cameron do press other
than for Avatar.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
That's what he's been doing. Well. Everyone else is making
making movies for as James Cameron it's like the it's
like the James Bond of movie making. Yeah right, it's
just a moniker that you can be handed.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Right, and then you just test out scripts and stuff
and see if they're they're good. But somehow they're always good.
Now they say that, I question whether or not all
of his movies are actually good, because all I can
think of are just the good movies. Well, I mean,
(05:40):
technically I haven't seen The Way of Water, so I
don't really know if it's.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
A good movie or not.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I mean, the Avatar movies are all spectacular just to watch,
not visually, but or not just visually, but you know,
just in general. Mm hmm. That's not how you spell Cameron.
That's weird.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
I just let Google take the wheel.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Let's lest I can't. I'm trying to think of all
of his movies, but like a handful of them. I'm thinking,
do I know all of them? Let's see here.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
He's listed as a Is that a writer? No?
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Okay, that's just because he created the T one thousand. Okay,
it was listed as Moral Kombat one definitive edition.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Oh yeah, because that creator of one thousand. Yeah, he
has to give it, give it be given. Credit that way.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I just want to see directing.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
He directed Piranha too. I didn't know that. That's fucking
he wrote it too, apparently. Was it good? I mean
those movies are terrible, but they're like those like they're
those campy horror movies, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, but is it terrible good type of thing?
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was definitely better. It was the
best of all the sequels after Pana Pirana. The original
one was like literally made for like eleven dollars, and
then Pirana to the Spawning was was drastically better. When
(07:10):
I say drastically better, like it wasn't a fucking feet
of you know, of everything. I don't even were there
in that original series. Damn, that's a lot. Well, technically
the reboot, it's a reboot. Well no, that one was
(07:35):
the original, like it was part of the original one,
but there was there are they considering? Okay? So yeah,
Piranha three d uh from twenty ten was the re
was the like the reboot of the series. Okay, there
(08:00):
was only like three or four of them in the
original runs. Run oh three? Yeah, because this is is
that technically a sequel? I don't know, there's so so
weird with these fucking old ass horror movies. I mean,
if you look at it, what's wild. We'll talk about
(08:23):
direct I guess writing, written and directed by his first
movie in nineteen seventy eight, which was called Xeno Genus.
I don't think I've ever seen that before.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I don't think I've ever.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Heard of it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
A woman and an engineered man are sent that's an
ad okay, thank you, sent in a gigantic sentient ship
to search space for a place to start new life cycle.
Raj decides to take a look around the ship. He
comes across a gigantic robot cleaner. Combat ensues.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That's that's a synopsis, it says here.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Production. Cameron raised twenty thousand dollars from local dentists to
fund the film. Most of the film was shot in
his living room, as the methods of he used were
self taught.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Dude, the pictures of this are so wild.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
That's fucking ridiculous, dude.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
A couple of them look like almost like paintings, but
then you then the rest of them just looked like
they were shot on a handicam.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Oh my god, that's terrible. I wonder if this is
available anywhere.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
That's a great question.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
What does IMDb sometimes says things are available?
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, they're trying to be better about that.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Oh my god, this fucking had what pushes everything down?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Oh yeah, I love those. You're email sudden, it's like, oh.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Cool, I lost my place. I don't see anything, so
I have no idea if it's.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
A watch, yeah, I'll tell you the truth. Joe written
directed by him. He doesn't actually have a.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Lot what I was looking at mostly even just like
directed by him. That's it's an incredibly short list, but
it is full of just banger movies.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That's the thing for sure. Like you look at this list,
I mean the first two Zeno Genius right the Spawning.
Then you go from Pirana to the Spawning to the Terminator.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Mm hmm a.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
It's like the guy who we just watched make a
fish movie. Essentially many Jaws that could be used in
two different ways am I and I and m A
N Y because there's many of them, and there's there
were many anyhow, it goes comes out two years later
and makes the Terminator that's wild, yeah interesting, And then
(11:33):
like you said, he comes out does Aliens, which is
I mean arguably one of the best genre drawn, genre
switching sequels you could ever imagine. Then follows up with
that with The Abyss, which is fucking awesome and just
(11:53):
mind blowing from from the day it came out. Terminator
two Judgment Day continues his Arnald Schwarzenegger run with True Lies.
A handful of years later, comes out with Titanic, which
obviously biggest, one of the biggest movies I've ever ever made.
(12:18):
Then Avatar literally twelve years later. Yeah, right, And the
only reason it took twelve years is because he couldn't
perfect the technology needed to make the movie, yeah until then,
and even then he was like, it could get better,
which it then did.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yeah right, So that's what I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Like all the stuff that he's directed has just been
like banger after banger, Like he just really hones in
on just the one project he wants to do and
just makes a banger. And he's done some other stuff
in between here, but they were movies like one episode.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Of a TV show and then his documentary.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
But yeah, when you get right down to just the
movies that he's directed, only a handful and they're just bangers.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah. He did appear on Mad About You as himself though.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Nice I probably saw that too. He used to watch
that show.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
You know, Mike's seeing that shit, He's like, who the
hell is James Cameron? Yeah, I mean that's I mean
even the movies he wrote then didn't direct. There's a
bunch of good ones. I mean Rambo First Blood Part two.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Which I didn't even know that he It says he's
uncredited in that, right, No.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's co written. Was Sylvester Sloan because I believe he
did the first Was it the first screenplay? I think
it was the first screenplay if I remember quicktly, Yeah,
screenplay by James Cameron is still yeah, or he helped
him write the screenplay from the the story that he
(14:00):
was trying to they were trying to make. That's what
it was. I knew a screenplay related. They always give
you a writing credit when it's screenplay because that's technically
what they're using.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Fair I was looking, yeah, looking at the credits because
it lists Rambo First Part Blood, First Blood Part two
twice and says screenplay by and then the other one
says based on a movie written by uncredited.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, I don't know what that actually means.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Then, of course you do Aliens, and then for some reason,
Rambo First Blood Part two comes up again, and then Rambo,
but somehow Rambo comes after First Blood Part two, even
though Rambo was the I don't know what IMDb is
doing here.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Well when they say Rambo, is that the later one?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Actually this says video game. Now that I realize it.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
They gave him credit for the video game. That's funny.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
What says uncredited but based on a movie written by uncredited?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Oh, because it's it's supposed to be based on Rambo two?
Are Rambo First Blood Part.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Two just as Rambo I'm assuming part well, no, yeah,
part two, because this is the the imagery would be
from part two, not one. Oh yeah, there yea Rambo
video game is based on Rambo Part two.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
For the ne e s weird, Yeah, because like the
the naming of the Rambo movies was bizarre because the
first one isn't Rambo. The first one's First Blood, and
then it's Rambo First Blood Part two, then Rambo three,
(15:35):
and then in two thousand and eight they rebooted it
with Rambo and then Rainbow Last Blood, Rainbow Rambo Rainbow,
Rambo Last Blood, and then John Rambo was the is
the one that's still currently working on.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Still currently working on another Rambo movie.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yeah, it's wild.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
I gave up on that after Rambo. Actually, I never
did I even watch Rambo. I don't think I did.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
We saw it because he has the ram Betty where
he cuts that guy mostly in half.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Oh right, okay, so John Rambo I thought came out.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
No, No, that was the that was the other one.
Oh okay, yeah, and then other ones he did. Uh,
Strange Days, which is a fantastic movie with a bunch
of people in it, and has it is that the
one that has the bomb ass soundtrack? I think it
does what movie list.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Said, strange Oh strange Day. There it is.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
I think you had a really good Sony soundtrack in
between that.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Nope, I've never seen this movie.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
A black Mark marketeer tries to save a woman in
nineteen ninety nine Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Okay, it's a hard movie, you explain.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Okay, lots of terminator stuff, Titanic Terminator, Dark Angel, Terminator, RoboCop,
Versus Terminator.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
He produced Solaris really did he?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
That's dope.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I didn't realize that that's based on a novel. Yeah,
I did not know that.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
One of the main things I'd like to get around
to reading.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Huh, I'll lead a battle angel. He wrote that well,
co wrote it then produced it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Speaking of things that deserve a sequels mm hmm, like
a while ago.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Mm hmm. Whatever. Right, there's a note on Ghosts of
the Abyss.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
It says also reality camera system designer. What so he
designed a camera system for that documentary.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I wouldn't doubt it.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I thought that was a documentar about the cutting edge
of the movie. But it's a it's a move. It's
a move about movie the magic of movie editing.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I was like, dang, he was involved in cutting edge.
No wonder that move That first One's a fucking awesome
movie that nobody gives credit to. He is weirdly obsessed
with water though. That's pretty interesting. Yeah, I mean, you
gotta look at the Abyss. It's about water. It's also
(18:46):
about breathing. In was the liquid they used to breathe
It's like a.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Highly auctionated water, sort of like not water but southern
a substance or something like that.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Yeah, that was it, whatever it was, it was all.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
It was pink gu that you prey did.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
That's all I remember m and then yeah, so he
did like you know that shit, and then Titanic obviously,
and then he had a bunch of fucking well I
mean obviously one of his first movies was Piranha too.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Yeah, water, so I mean.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
When he comes out and makes the one of the
biggest movies of all time.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
See this right here proves that he's not a real
human being. What leave these pictures? So this is the
first one? Yeah, okay, so this is uh him for
Terminator right, okay, Oh, I'm sorry Aliens. That's Aliens then,
(19:48):
and that's an eight nineteen eighty seven, was say eighteen
eighty six, nineteen eighty six, and then two thousand and nine.
Somehow that's the same human being. Yeah, not the same
human being. That's a that's a stand in. And then
this guy.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Still looks like James Cameron clearly.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
No, that's what the media wants you to think. Joe, Nope,
I told you, I believe Nah, dude, Why does he
look like a fifty seven year old in nineteen eighty
six but looks like a forty seven year old in
two thousand and.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Nine in Benjamin Buttony.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
But then somehow in twenty twelve. He looks like he's
just hit sixty three. Bro, it makes no sense to me.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
I don't know Paul Red disease.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Nah No, that's that's multiple people, dude. That guy, that
guy looks like Cameron Crow more than Cameron James.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Cameron, Dorian graysm someone's got a.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Portrait of him and keeps fucking with him. Yeah, whatever, man,
I still stand by the fact that's multiple people. Nah. Yeah,
I think you're wrong.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I don't believe.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I do believe. I believe it. He's multiple people. But
those most people are making some good ass shit, so
I'll let it go fair enough. I'm not saying we
stop them from doing it. I'm just saying let's let
him go on, and when we get to Avatar eleven,
(21:19):
we'll finally be like, Hey, so guys, we got some
bad news for you. More James Cameron movies.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Oh no, bad news this.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
I was gonna tell you the secret. I'm not hey,
so okay, I don't know if we've ever talked about
this before.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Let's go.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Pokemon. Pokemon confuses me on how anybody's okay with this world.
It's littered with sentient monsters, right mm hm that just
roam free, battling each other, fighting humans, no problems, right.
(22:06):
They send a eleven year old out with a backpack
full of snacks and clean underwear who clearly has no
idea about Pokemon, even though he wants to be a
Pokemon trainer, just seems to know nothing about Pokemon. Yeah,
and his mom's like, all right, we'll have fun. What
(22:29):
that's the part of the world that you No, that's
just where it starts, man, Like, you know, terrifying. That
world would be in real.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Life, incredibly terrifying, and.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
These people are completely okay with it.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
I mean, you have to live in the world, so
I guess you would be okay with it and used
to it after a while.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Bro, Like what I mean?
Speaker 2 (22:53):
You have balloon creatures that are literally kidnapped kids and
steal their souls. There's a apparently history that Pokemon and
humans used to get married at one point in time.
Uh what other ones? Weird ones are there? Uh?
Speaker 3 (23:15):
God, I'm trying to remember anything else, because I know
there's a bunch of other weird shit that you can
read in Pokemon.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Entries and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
So cubone right, Yeah, a cubebone wears the skull of
his mom.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Yeah, that's why he's always depressed. Maybe you don't wear
the skull of your mom, maybe you wouldn't be so depressed.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, Like what the fuck, dude? Like, and then like
they evolved to have what their skin looks like, clothes,
like humanoid clothes.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Mister mind looks like a human even though that's a Pokemon.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah. And then like then then you have just like
the most like a born of all of them, is
like things like mimic you, where's a sack that looks
a lot like a Pikachu, but it's just a purple
cloud underneath.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Uh huh mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Then you have sentient trash bags.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
It's like, Bro, I guess if you were born in
that world. I guess it's just the world you're in,
but it's fucking from the outside terrifying.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
You have Pokemon gods, literally Pokemon that are gods that
I think if I recall, right, or like the creation
of Pokemon. But those things exist in the in this
world that you can capture.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, bro, I.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Guess, but you just basically captured god.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
What Broad's wild? I was like, I don't I don't
trust any of.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
This and then what do you eat? Like? That's the
other thing that that gets me.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Is like, Okay, are there other animals?
Speaker 2 (24:43):
There are other animals out there that are the ones
that you eat?
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Yeah, because they make I mean, I don't know, dude.
It's like, and how do you make bread in cheese?
Because I've seen those as items? So is it milk take?
Is that milt take milk? Yeah? Could be bro bro terrifying, terrifying.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
I mean from an outsider, definitely terrifying. From an insider
would just be another day.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
That's why I understand Justice Smith's character from Detective Pinkachu
because that outside world would be horrific mm hmm. And
it's like, oh yeah no. And by the way, this
one can look like anything it wants, so you know,
and for some reason, visually you can definitely tell, but
(25:37):
people don't ever tell mm hmm. I'm like, hey, well
that one has regular human eyes, which is also unsettling.
That one has little black thoughts for eyes. Shoot that one.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
That's to say nothing of psychic type Pokemon like their
psychic type they could control people.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
They can all you know, they can manipulate people. It's like,
what are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Also the amount of human death that must happen in
that world just collateral damage must be wild could be yeah, bro, dude.
And then just the like the lack of like law
enforcement in that is just crazy because you have Team
(26:23):
Rocket right, clearly they work for this organization who should
all be held responsible for certain things, like when they
uproot an entire stadium, right and then end up dropping
it in the middle of nowhere, Like that's property damage
at the highest order. And also I'm pretty sure kidnapping,
which they've done several times yep, of not just of
(26:46):
like Pikachu and other Pokemon, but like children.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yeah, they're a mafia, They're a crime syndicate.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Right, It's like, dude, these bike cop ladies have to
do something. There's gotta be more police or something because
they're not. They're clearly not doing the job needed to
be done. I don't know if you need to clone
more of them or whatever it is, but wow, that's wild.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Think of the health and technology in that world too.
You have like gems that can like revive people or things,
and then you have sprays that can heal things. Like
you're not just getting bandage, you're literally just getting hit
with some for breeze and just being like you're okay,
get out there.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Well, also, you have these mechanical balls that somehow go
from this little size to figure size and then somehow
suck in a building sized monster yep, that you can
later then throw out.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
M it's somehow able to store it in such a
small space, it's like and supposedly like also have like
a little like a little terrarium in there that it.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Can survive in.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Yeah, because they just like he's just walking around a
bunch of pokemon just in while not really anything. It's
only like he can only hold like what six or.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Fag the amount of energy that he's just strapped in
a belt to that must have to be in there.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
To do all that, like literal like nuclear weapons. It's
attached to his belt, right, And then when he unfurls whatever,
monsters in this thing is literally like the most death
dealing creatures in the world, Like he throws out a dragons.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Of gods and yet so this thing, this catcher can
somehow contain God.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, It's like, bro, you guys are using the technology wrong.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
They're using it for what they can use it for.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I guess man like do some other work or something
like geez loise it is. I mean, there's gotta be
there's there's someone's got some regulations in there, like there's
gotta be some stuff we gotta change, like and also
transportation system. They just send him off. He's walking willy
nilly through the forest.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
It's like, bro, you could have like a self driving
vehicle that drives this kid around.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
They could, because that's a weird.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
It's another weird thing of technological wise, like they have
like cars, regular stuff in these things bicycles. But it's
like with all of the engineering and technology that goes
into capturing Pokemon, you would think this would be like
an interplanetary species.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Of being able to do stuff well like hoverboards. Nah,
we've got bicycles, not electric bicycles, pedally ass bicycles like
use your own power bicycles, misty powered bicycles Like no, dude,
electric bikes not no, not a thing electric anything. No,
you're trying to tell me you can make a collapsal
(29:46):
orb that can suck in a fucking essential god, but
you can't make a fucking self powered bike mm or
something that floats mm hm. And then then you got
people floating around in hot air balloons. Yeah, it's like, brother,
y'all need to focus a little harder on less of
(30:06):
the taming of the giant monsters that are everywhere, and
maybe just evolving your society up beyond me.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
I would say that they've already successfully tamed the monsters, Like,
you know, you don't have things that are just as
far as I'm aware, is stomping through villages or cities
or anything. So you've got that pretty under control. So like, yeah,
where's the rest of the technology go? Or it's just
all research just into Pokemon and that's it.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
And and the research is sending eleven year old out
into the fucking woods by himself with a fucking electric mouse.
What the fuck is wrong with you people?
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Well, I mean that's comparable to back in the day
when you know, when we were younger, and it was
just like, all right, go I'm going to a friend's house. Yeah,
the friend lives like five six miles away, Going to
hop on my bike and go and go, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Do stuff. Yeah, Joe, when you're riding your bike, did
you run? Did you go through a forest that was
full of fucking bats?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
If I lived in uh, North Dakota, probably I would
have that's fair, I guess. But in Arizona, you know,
you have to deal with the fucking heat, so it's
a different thing.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
I just don't know, man, I just I don't won't
get it. And then you see some of these creatures
and you're like, first off, how are you not shitting
your pants constantly?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Because again, you're used to it seeing these things.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I guess, man, But it's just I'm like, dude, can
you imagine just like be able to take somebody who
doesn't know anything and just like throw them in a
Pokemon world and see what happens, Like watch their just
brain explode?
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Oh that would be terrifying when common every day for
eleven year old just be like, no, dude, it's a
charges art.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
It's just don't even know. And I just be like, no,
that's a giant, fucking fire breathing flying lizard.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
When I'm talking about it, I'm like, I don't care
what you call it. I've seen Godzilla. Yeah, what, bro?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
How is this normal for you? How would you tame
that thing? What the hell?
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Well? He barely tended he basically you know, Char's art
felt bad for him.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Yeah, right, and then the fact that they just evolve
like that. Yeah, you're like, okay, hey, I want you
to be something different. Now here's a stone and you
just rub a stone on it, and it's just like,
bua evolve.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Yeah, there's some of those that just don't make no
sense either, like where they go from m h. It's
like and then like the ones that like turn into
like what looked to be a humanoid from like not
humanoid things. It's like, bro, no, you know someone's trying
to fuck that plant lady for sure you talk about
pokemon and humans getting married, it's like, bro, yeah, right,
(32:50):
was his name Rosalita or whatever? Right, Yeah, it's like, bro,
you know, people trying to get up and set them pedals.
M It, come on, man a, I'm pretty sure it's
like decophelia of some sort because it's a plant. But
bro uh uh yeah no. I was suming with this
(33:12):
the other day and I was like, how are people
okay with this? In the baseline one, The whole thing is, yes,
I know when you and I were growing up, our
parents will be like, yeah, I head over five miles
away to your friend's house. That's honestly, that is a
lost thing nowadays because of terrible people and stuff, right,
(33:32):
all right, that aside and the fact that nobody tried
to like stop Team Rocket, like Jesse and James from
terrorizing this eleven year old, Let's just skip over that.
His mom just gives him a backpack full of clean
chonies and some snacks and then lets him wander into
the forest. Don't give him a map, don't tell him, Hey,
(33:56):
you should probably stick to the roads. Nah, just let
him go.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
It's like, it's a right of passage in this world.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Bro, you don't care about your child at that point.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Again, it's a right of passage in this world. No,
they probably do care. It's just that's what it is.
And it's one of those if he if he dies,
he dies, you know, he wasn't meant to be. I guess,
I don't know. That could be reason why there's not
very many people in this world too, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Because they get eaten or died. Yeah, they get killed
by accident.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
Only the strongest survive Team.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Rocket Stadium on you. Like, I don't know, man, it's
fucking crazy. Mm hmm, Yeah, I don't. It's just like
and like you think about the like, yeah, I know,
as turned out to be like a really good Pokemon
trainer or whatever. Right, he shouldn't have he got lucky
because he should have been dead like the first like
(34:53):
three hours of this adventure, like he was lost in
the forest, he stole some girl's bike, he got electrocuted
like fifteen times in the first like four episodes. It's like, dang, bro,
you got you got lucky so many times? Yeah, because
you should be a rotting corpse being fed on by
(35:14):
fucking these things in the forest because nah nah yeah yeah.
And like money doesn't seem to be a thing in
this world. Now.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
That was another thing I was gonna mention. It's like
where do you like, Okay, it's time to eat somewhere.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
You know, what do you pay with?
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Like I never watched too much of the original anime,
so I have no idea. They never really played much
of the game either.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
They don't mention money at all, Like he just goes
and like money, Like he has to get Pikachu some
help after like he gets all hurt and stuff, right
goes to the hospital. There's no mention of like, hey,
what's your copey, They're just like, yeah, we'll help out
Poke Assurance. Yeah, doum like bro and Hen he's eating
(36:01):
there's eating food. I'm like, and then Brock has like
just got a bunch of food and like, how how
a that looks?
Speaker 2 (36:07):
Like me?
Speaker 1 (36:07):
I'm not gonna ask where you got it from, but
how did you pay for any of this?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Maybe it's just a star trek for society, I guess, dude, just.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Like, oh I need this. We can only have this though,
I'm like, well, OK, that's good. It's like, what the
fuck is happening? It's so wild to me. It's like
it has like these weird restrictions, but then it has
no restrictions. And I'm like, y'all definitely just made this
willy nilly and have just been piecing together for years.
(36:38):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, Because there's just no way, dude,
how many how many dead ashes do you think there
are just littered throughout the forests and deserts of this
fucking planet.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
There's gotta be hundreds of thousands, if not millions, over
the years. Like said, it never feels like again I've
ever played the games, but I've seen people play the games.
My brother used to play the games, and there's not
very many people in those in those villages and there.
You know, there are cities I'm aware of, but like,
does never seem to be a whole lot of people
(37:11):
in those in those places.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
Either not it's all cowering so they have to live underground.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Or some ship, or they're just not that many people.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Well, just maybe have mega cities. We don't ever get
to see.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
It's possible.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
I mean, if you throw in the movie into the
canon of things, there is a big city that a
lot of people live in, and so you have you
do have smaller villages and cities that not a lot
of people live in. But we're just going off the games.
As far as I'm aware, there's no large cities in
any of the games.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Well, the new game where the new game is coming out,
Pokemon Legends z A. It takes place in the major city, Okay,
but it has and it has Pokemon in it because
there's Pokemon safe zones. Then there's like Pokemon battle zones,
like you can go there and that's like what you
do is like you can go in there and like
(38:10):
battle Pokemon or whatever. And then there's like zone where
you go and you can like there's wild ish Pokemon
in there that you can like capture the train. Okay,
but I'm like, again, what are these buildings made of?
Because you know they're getting destroyed on a daily basis.
Do they reprint them?
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Again?
Speaker 3 (38:30):
They have to have some sort of technology that is
just very strong they can withstand all this stuff.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
I need answers, Joe, because it don't make sense to me,
and I don't like.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
It doesn't make sense to me, and I just ignore it.
That's fair mm hmmm, because at the end of the day,
it's just a capture thing.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
That's it. Capture thing, battle things, that's it, which is.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Just terrifying in general. Like and also putt an eleven
year old in a gladiator arena to fight another monster.
It seems crazy to me too, But again, I guess
that's just this world how they've evolved up m I
don't know, they're just why, how how are you okay
(39:21):
to this? Like what happened in your world? This is
where you're at.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
I'm sure there's lower somewhere that explains that.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
And has there ever been wars.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
No idea?
Speaker 1 (39:33):
Because like, can you imagine what that devastation to be?
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Like the weaponization of Pokemon? Yeah, dude, I mean you
literally have pokemon that blow.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Up, yeah, which are fine. Then they're like they're just
walking away. It's like you just combusted, brom How are
you okay? Also you just blew up all those people?
M Like are they throwing poke balls out at each other? Like?
(40:05):
I don't know could Man, that's so wild to me.
What a what a lawless fucking world that place must be.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
It's very strange.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
Mm hmm, I just don't I was like, and how
do you have families in this How are you okay?
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Like, I don't know, man, Again, we're just going around
in logic. It's just that the world is what it is,
and everybody within that world is used to that world.
If they went to somewhere else, they would think it
would hear if they went to hear it, they would
think a regular dog is strange to have one that
doesn't repeat its species name.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
All the time.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
Yeah, dude, I don't know. That's just crazy. I mean
if you look at the world of Star Wars, it'd
be pretty crazy too. Like you got these weird things
that can they can move things with their mind and
like to have light swords. But then also you have
giant monsters that people are just okay with like being
around It's like no, no, but.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
It makes more sense to It makes sense again within
that world. But to me, it makes sense even within
this world because it's space. Like you have you accept
that things exist, that those things exist, because not everything's
going to exist the way it does here on Earth.
So of course there's gonna be other aliens that don't
look anything like us out there.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
It's so weird to me. I don't know, M, Like,
people are just okay with this. I'm like, I don't
know if I could be able to survive.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
And then they're cute looking, they have big eyes.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
That's That's the other thing too, is like there's a
bunch of them like, oh look how cute it is,
and then they just like snatch your face off. I'm like, M,
how are you outside functioning right now? How are you
not just cowering in a corner when you have like
the realizations doesn't ever click in, Like.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
Because you grew up with it, that's wild, dude. You
grew up with it. You grow up with it, and
so it's just normal and you're used to it.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
If you grow up you know what I mean? No, exactly,
if you grow up mortality rate. It must just be
fucking astronomical at that.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
Point, once you hit a certain age. Yeah, I'm sure
it is.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
They're like, oh, he made to fifteen.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Like mortality rate for infants is probably pretty good.
Speaker 3 (42:30):
Again, with like all the healing technology that they have,
it has to be pretty damn good. Like, infant mortality
rates have to be very low. But once you get
to the age where you go out to find your
part in the world, if you're wandering around the woods,
you know, capturing Pokemon, it's got to be a pretty
high mortality rate. That's why people just, you know, they
(42:52):
don't really get attached to their kids. I don't know,
they just send them out and if they die, they die.
Speaker 4 (43:01):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
That's so crazy.
Speaker 2 (43:06):
I mean, see again, that's why you just stop thinking
about it. You can just take it for what it is.
You just like, look their pocket monsters and little monsters.
Speaker 3 (43:16):
Don't read the you know, the settings behind it about
how something where's its mom's skull or kidnaps kids or
any other thing, or the fact that you even have
ghost type Pokemon, which insinuates that there is some sort
of afterlife or possible after life, or even if they
are ghost how are they created? If their spirits, does
(43:39):
that mean they were alive at one point in time,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
And I'll think about it.
Speaker 2 (43:44):
And it's it's CP is really low, so it becomes candy.
Speaker 1 (43:49):
That's the other thing too, is like are you just
murdering these things for candy or is it like a
it gets sent off somewhere and then you get exchanged
for candy.
Speaker 3 (43:59):
I mean, if you want to believe that it goes
to some ranch somewhere, sure, if you want to believe that,
I'm okay with that. You want to believe that this
thing is fed into a candy chipper and just spits
out a tootsy roll, I'm okay with that too.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
Then you feed that candy to another version of itself,
which means they're all cannibals.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
I mean they have to eat somehow.
Speaker 3 (44:22):
That was the other thing that we hadn't addressed yet,
how to poke? What do pokemon eat? Yeah, some of
them are grass type. Some I'm sure eat grass.
Speaker 1 (44:29):
No, because if they're grass type, they're usually made of grass.
But that's what I mean, like that means they're cannibals.
On another Oh my god, dude, this is I don't.
I don't like I don't like it. I can't stop
thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (44:43):
Fish, yes, mine fish and pokemon fish.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
So bal, I don't. I don't like it. I don't
appreciate it. I can't stop thinking about it. It's terrifying
to me. How are you people just okay with it?
Like you shouldn't be a okay with any of this.
It's all it's it's so flawed and yet so terrifying.
But everyone's just like, yeah, normal life. Mm hm, what
(45:13):
was your history?
Speaker 2 (45:14):
Like?
Speaker 1 (45:15):
Like that's what I want to know, Like what the read?
Speaker 2 (45:18):
I'm sure that there is some sort of his like
extended lower somewhere on it just.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Unnerving, fair enough, and yet you're going to go to
an expo for it later today. I just like shine.
I just like pieces of cardboard pretty art on them,
But I say, it's a page. All the time you
look at one of these things, it's like, how tall
do you think this thing is?
Speaker 2 (45:46):
I mean you realize, like a charge art is like
eight nine feet tall or something like that.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
Yeah, and it's like bro, But then you like a
charmander for example, right, it's still.
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Probably like five six feet tall.
Speaker 1 (45:58):
Do you know what's the quick. Can you imagine turning
a corner and seeing a fucking orange lizard with a
fire tail.
Speaker 3 (46:04):
It's a good question, actually, would be sure that unless, unless, unless, unless,
Ash was incredibly tall, that chartmander must actually be shorter.
Speaker 1 (46:13):
Charmander, i'm guessing, is probably like three ish feet tall, right, man, man,
man and man? Then what's the what's the middle one?
Speaker 3 (46:23):
So charmander is typically I'm pretty sure that's two feet tall,
so six.
Speaker 1 (46:29):
Meters six No, six meters six meters.
Speaker 2 (46:34):
Sorry, I'm reading that wrong. Point six meters.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
Point six meters, just less than three feet because the
meters three point.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
But yeah, chartmander's typically two feet tall, which is approximately
point six meters.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
Then he evolves into the chart milion.
Speaker 1 (46:53):
Which seems like they should be close like six feet
at that point, right, five six feet because they're I
think they're.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
This says three feet seven inches.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
Typically, how short is Ash.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
Has to be like five foot something?
Speaker 1 (47:09):
He like five foot two right, there's no way.
Speaker 2 (47:14):
Uh well, let's let's feed into here. Let's see Ash
catch up four foot seven yes is christ Yeah? Okay,
and I guess he's a ten year old.
Speaker 1 (47:26):
Yeah, yeah, I'm like because if you're if you're saying
that Charmander was two feet tall. That thing came up
to his nipples, so like he can't be that much
taller than him.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
I guess canonically, chars are it is five foot seven.
That seems short.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
It does seem like are we talking like Earth sizes?
Because that makes no sense to me.
Speaker 3 (47:53):
Apparently mewtwo is six seven, Blastoids is five to three.
Over these things, what the fuck? Vis or somehow six
seven as well? Store relaxes six eleven. Pikachu is one
foot four inches.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
There's no way there's Yeah, someone needs to fix the
art because there's no way a Pikachu almost half the
size of a charmander. Mm hmm, Like he comes up
to this charmanders like hip. Someone don't know math, That's
what I'm saying, Like that don't make no sense. No,
(48:32):
you'all need to rethink your world, fix your sizes first off,
all right, then we can talk about all the other
logistics involved in like having children wander around capturing monsters
and technology that should be basically used other ways, and
can you put a human in one of those? Does
that ever happen?
Speaker 2 (48:53):
God? Some of these are like way shorter I've actually
never paid attention to how big some of these are.
Speaker 3 (48:59):
A squirrel is only one foot eight inches a foot like,
think of how tall that is compared to like you remain.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
That is tiny.
Speaker 1 (49:08):
That's what I'm saying. It makes no sense. The world
the pokemon is flawed in many ways, and one of
them is definitely measurements, because I don't think they have
proper measuring.
Speaker 3 (49:19):
A katterpy is one foot long. That's terrifying because that's
a giant worm. You just have a giant worm coming
at you. It's one foot long.
Speaker 1 (49:25):
No wonder, Misty was fucking terrified. Can you imagine that
thing charging you?
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Big bugs coming after me?
Speaker 1 (49:32):
Have you seen this video this fucking tarantula walk into
this lady's yard.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
Oh no, I saw a video of the new stickbug
that they found somewhere.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Can you guess where it's found, Joe, I'll give you
three guesses.
Speaker 2 (49:46):
It was Australia, Yes, it was, of course it was.
Speaker 1 (49:50):
If you're gonna discover a new terrifying bug, you know
where it's coming from one of two places, Australia or Florida,
which is basically just Australia. From here in the United state. Yeah, okay,
I'm just saying, like, that's that's what's gonna happen. What's
gonna happen is the insect. If it's an insect, it's
(50:10):
gonna be found in Australia. If it's some kind of
like amphibian creature or terrifying fish monster, it's gonna be
found in Florida.
Speaker 2 (50:20):
Oh yeah, I believe that.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
And then eventually it's gonna be found in the other
because that's how it works. There's a direct portal of
terrifying from one of those from the Australia's back to
each other. That's what I'm just saying. And I saw
the picture of it. I instantly closed the window. I
was like, I don't need to see this. I don't
know why I clicked on it, but I did. And
(50:44):
then I was like, well, that was a mistake. Let's
just get back out of that. So yeah, I don't know.
I've been wondering. I've been like in page does She's
like no, I don't really care. I'm like, so you
you're okay with all of this? Because we started to
rewatch the cartoon the O g One and like, I
didn't watched it since it came out and like I
(51:04):
was apparently dumb back then or just didn't care. And
then we're watching and I'm like, wait, hold on, Ash
is eleven years old. He can't even literally he can't
even like get a job.
Speaker 2 (51:19):
And yet he's running around a forest.
Speaker 3 (51:21):
You're not gonna go on, he's gone from like it's
not even that he's running around the forest, because some
of that even insinuates that maybe he like comes back
at night, like he just comes out to adventure and
then comes back. No, he's like literally like, this is
what I want to do for my life. I want
to be a Pokemon trainer. All right, eleven year old,
You've you've decided your life. Go forth into the world.
Speaker 2 (51:44):
You that's it. There's no there's no colleges.
Speaker 3 (51:49):
There's no like Pokemon college that you could have gone
to get a Poka you know, poke university.
Speaker 2 (51:56):
And that's the other thing too, scholarship and learn poke
a training.
Speaker 1 (52:00):
He is so unprepared about being in the world of
Pokemon that he has to rely on his Poke Dex
to tell him what a basic Pokemon is. It's like, bro,
you you do not study this at all?
Speaker 2 (52:12):
No?
Speaker 1 (52:12):
Did you just wake up one day. You know what
Pokemon training it is.
Speaker 3 (52:15):
Well, I think his dad was one, if I recall
right from the show, his dad was one, but you
never see his dad.
Speaker 2 (52:20):
I don't know what happens to it.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
Yeah, and also for someone who wants to devote their
life to this because of who their father is, right,
you'd think this motherfucker would know a little more about Pokemon.
He has no goddamn thing, a fucking thing. He doesn't
know anything about Pokemon. He is the dumbest in the world.
No wonder everyone likes Gary because it looks like Gary
actually did some fucking research. Ashes out here just fucking
(52:46):
just wing it a fucking wishing a prayer, dude, Like
how how like Joe, if you wanted to go do something,
you'd probably look it up. Well yeah, you know, not
just be handed look it up.
Speaker 3 (53:03):
I'd study it just to see if it's something that
I would want to do or can do in general,
you know, like how expensive are these things?
Speaker 2 (53:11):
But then again, I don't know if they worry about
money in this world.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
Clearly they don't worry about a lot of things in
this world. Because his mom's distraught, Like, oh yeah, I
can't believe he's going out there. I think she's more
just like, oh, I'm gonna be a loane now because
like my husband apparently has been seriously gone, because he's
never fucking mentioned early on. Ash is just out on
an adventure and then she finds out that he's, like,
(53:34):
you know, in this city, which seems like it should
be far away, but he gets there pretty quickly. It's like,
I get it. He's trying to find Pokemon. Yeah, but
like also, like shouldn't one of the things you tell
him besides make sure to change your underwear every day
is stick to the roads, don't cut through the forest.
Speaker 2 (53:57):
How are you gonna find the best Pokemon?
Speaker 1 (53:59):
He doesn't, by the way he stumbles upon them at best.
Technically he should be dead already, but somehow he survived.
It makes no sense, and I don't like it. It
bothers me on many levels, and it bothers me. I
(54:22):
people are okay with it.
Speaker 2 (54:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (54:25):
Granted I don't know much about the games other than
what I've learned because I didn't ever never really played
the Pokemon games. But it just seems that like it's
gotta be like a dark Soul's type of universe, right,
there's just corpses and ghosts of like just chilling everywhere.
(54:46):
Like it's probably not the same ash over and over again, right,
but there's definitely dead eleven year old just chilling somewhere
in like the desert.
Speaker 2 (54:52):
If every kid is being treated the same like this, yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (54:56):
Like brow man, it's just I don't get it.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
Is that what the world is just evolved around too,
is everything's Pokemon is.
Speaker 3 (55:06):
Pokemon is kids capturing these monsters and battling these monsters.
That's what this world is is centered on. It's basically
just like like this whole world is centered on UFC fights, Yeah,
gladiator fights and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (55:20):
With eleven year olds. Yeah, you're trying to tell me
an eleven year old can unleash a fucking fire breathing dragon,
which apparently is only five foot eleven or eleven, Yeah, like.
Speaker 2 (55:31):
Which is eye tower over that thing would just be like, no,
get the fuck out of.
Speaker 1 (55:35):
Here, bonk on his fucking nose, Get out of here,
fire lizard, right, get scadadle. But then these creatures have
magical abilities because they can summon like all sorts of shit,
like a pigeon can make a tornado shoot out of
its wings. It's like bro blastoids can just produce water.
Speaker 2 (56:00):
Produce water out of cannons in its.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
Shell, devastating effects too. But you're talking about like these
Pokemon battles, right, you have Ash just chilling right behind
Pikachu when fucking I don't know whoever Gary's on the
other side, Unleash is a fucking sandshru Right, those are
I don't think those he even never say, Andrew, I'm
not too sure. Again, I'm not an expert. And then
(56:23):
the san Chrew throws a giant boulder at Pikachu. Right,
Pikachu dodges it.
Speaker 2 (56:29):
Where's the bouldergling?
Speaker 1 (56:30):
Thank you? Ashes? Back there? Misty's hanging out, Braca is
just like goggling at ladies who are apparently thirty years
older than him. That makes no sense. And they all
look the same, so that's creepy too. They're all sisters
or cousins or whatever. And then they have a crowd, right.
Do you ever see a shield pop up to protect
(56:52):
these people?
Speaker 2 (56:53):
No, unless it's already there. That's the thing. It couldn't
just be like some sort of technology that they have.
It's it's invisible.
Speaker 3 (57:00):
Invisible shields, you know, it's a technology that exists to
protect the crowd, and we just never see it because
because it's just an accepted thing in this world that
they don't explain.
Speaker 1 (57:14):
Bro, it's like I don't I don't get it, I
don't understand it. Like I need to find a Pokemon
expert and be like, hey, explain this to me. I
have thousands of questions. And if your logic doesn't start
lining up pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (57:31):
Well, here's the question that we we haven't even gone
in too yet.
Speaker 3 (57:34):
Like, first off, he calls himself a trainer, so he
goes out and captures wild pokemon.
Speaker 2 (57:38):
But what does it? What training has ever shown? No
training has ever shown.
Speaker 3 (57:42):
So you literally have wild creatures that you've now stored
in a ball that are just suddenly docile the moment
that you throw.
Speaker 2 (57:49):
Them into a ball.
Speaker 1 (57:50):
No, actually, there's something that there are some that don't,
that aren't docile and that don't agree with being let out.
That's I've seen that. But the two to your point,
there's a little bit like the train he does, like
he releases them and then like they communicate the best
you can between something. It just says its name over
and over again in different variations. But then you're like,
(58:10):
all right, cool, hey, I know like you're like a
couple of minutes ago you were a wild bug. I'm
gonna let you out of this ball. How about you
attack that bug?
Speaker 2 (58:21):
Right? And that's just they just accept it somehow.
Speaker 1 (58:25):
Is there like some like form of like training in
the ball that they're like getting indoctrinated into just being
okaynation exactly because like I'll tell you right now, that
thing just attacked me. I use this electric mouse to
make it unconscious, and then I threw a ball, magic
(58:47):
technology ball at what could be a corpse here in
a couple of seconds, pulls it in there. Maybe is okay?
Maybe not okay? Do I like when it's in the ball?
I rub that Yeah, there we go just like put
you near it.
Speaker 2 (59:03):
Raid some for breeze on it some yeah, and now
it's suddenly okay.
Speaker 1 (59:08):
And it's like, well, hey, I know you're the one
that made me be all hurt in like half dead
and then you yeah you get drive. Yeah, I guess
I'll help you out now, I'll be your friend. M h.
It's like, no, and let you let me have this ball.
I'm gonna fucking murder you.
Speaker 2 (59:26):
I'm friend, Pokemon gets to gets to pal around with
you outside.
Speaker 1 (59:31):
The ball because he's angry and he zaps you every
single time. It's like, bro, you're not training ship m h.
I don't know how you got like, I know, eventually,
like he got better at things. I'm not too sure how,
because I think it's all. I think literally all of
what we've seen in the Pokemon show is all of
like a dream he's had in a coma because he's like, uh,
(59:53):
missing two limbs and he's just in a hospital somewhere
and they're inducing him into this coma because if he
comes up, if he wakes up, he's gonna be an
extrutiating pain and be most of most of a just
amputee corpse.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
One day, he's just gonna realize that lamp in the
corner is is really weird, then realize that, yeah, it
wakes up and it's just been a coma this whole time.
Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Yeah, dude, he's a strapped machine. He's a fifty seven
year old fucking corpse god. So there's pumping in fluids
into him to keep him alive. For some strange reason, Pokemon.
Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
Is actually just some autistic kids, Yeah, are you dreaming
at a snow globe.
Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:00:30):
Like well like they're like yeah, electric mouse, Like what
the fuck is wrong with him?
Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
Mm hmm. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:00:38):
I'm just saying it. Just all of it bothers me,
and I don't know anybody enough. I don't know anybody
who knows enough about it that to ease my mind
about certain.
Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
Things, You're gonna have to go read, go go go
read the lower.
Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
Because like watching the show, nobody's helpful. Most everybody's an asshole,
and the people who are helpful are either the nurses,
the cops, or some hippie in the forest helping out
abandoned pokemon. It's like, where are the altruistic people? Where
(01:01:15):
the good people? Because everyone's a bunch of fucking jerks
and nobody cares about I don't care about children whatsoever,
but I know you shouldn't send them off from the
forest to fight monsters on their own. And then the
other thing, too, is at one point Ash catches up
(01:01:40):
some I camera which Pokemon it was, and it gets
zapped away and he's like what happened? And they're like, well,
you already have five, you can't have six, only you
can only I think it's five and then he's like
he didn't know that. It's like, bro, what how do
you not know this?
Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
And who's keep tabs on this?
Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
So I guess Professor Oak the guy who sends him
out into the wild with just a handful of poke
balls and a just I guess an Ada boy. I
don't even know if he gives him anything other than
the Poka dex an electric mouse and fucking a handful
of poke balls, but he will then like they get
(01:02:22):
zapped to his lab and he's like, no, I'll take
care of it and if you ever want it, we
can transfer one for the other. And I'm like, no
one explained to this to him. And the only reason
he knows this now is because he stumbled upon Misty
won't leave alone because he's straight bike after stealing it.
It's like, bro, unpreparedness is one thing, but not telling
(01:02:45):
this kid the basics of things. What if Misty wasn't
around and that thing just zapped away? He would be
at the beach to like, where the fuck's my Pokemon at? Again?
Sheer luck this kid's alive, and sheer luck that he's
made it as far as he did to another fucking island.
(01:03:05):
Somewhere because he moves from one region to another. And
then the whole evolution thing just drives me insane. I know,
we barely touched on that, because like one Pokemon that's
found here has a different, completely different evolution in another area.
And then there's all these other different monsters that are
(01:03:26):
here that somehow aren't anywhere else. But some of them
are there and some there's variations. I'm my it is
nothing makes sense there.

don't appreciate it, and I think people should revolt. I'm
just saying I'm just I'm just throwing it out there.
Do how do do you? But I'm just saying I'm
(01:04:17):
just saying, all right, that's it for this week's episode
comes naturally, we have been Joe. I've been Cody, and
as usual, you fuckers just came naturally.
Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
Bye.
