Everybody keeps assuming Chris.

any of these movies and stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
So Captain America, Chris Evans said, I'm it's not true.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
He's not returned as Captain America Avengers Doomsday. He's happily retired.
He is also not going to be in a New
World either. He says he's retired.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
He is, He's not. Robert Danly Jr.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
So wanted to get that out there first. He even
posted this. Okay, So here's another thing about Brave New World.
Everybody wants to know who the villain is. The leader
is the villain in the movie. Did you know it
was gonna be the leader.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
Yes, it's all over the news. It's well, I mean
he actually everyone you've seen him before, Yeah, you've seen
The Incredible Hole.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yeah, that Tim Blake Nelson who plays a Samuel Stearns
in there, the guy that was trying to the one

Do you know what I'm talking about? Norton Ed Norton.

Speaker 3 (07:38):

Speaker 4 (07:41):
But you really like the Red Hulk. I mean he
doesn't seeing he's proportionate. I mean like his I don't
know his hair. Dudes like either make it into a
fro or make it not.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
I don't know. It just it looks a little bit weird.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
I'm just glad they're throwing something else in there.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
But did you see the helmet of Brave New World
from cinemat?

Speaker 3 (08:00):
Yeah, it's right behind you.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
No you did not get it?

Speaker 4 (08:03):
No, no, no, it's right there.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
How did you get this?

Speaker 3 (08:09):
They went in the back and looked for it and
pulled it out.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
For a cinemak. Which cinema did you go to?

Speaker 3 (08:13):
The one were Daily City, the one over by us
dalely S Citty. We'll just see that. When did you
go there when I want to see dog Man.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Oh, that's where you went to go see dog Mats.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
We want to see it there because the early show
was at ten am.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
I wanted to get ten I had I had to
get stuff done, and I had a game. I had
a hockey game that night, so I had to get
everything done early.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
So let's figure this out.

Speaker 4 (08:32):
So for are you excited that I'm taking you there
for Valentine's Day to see Captain America Brave New World.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
If I had a choice, I'd rather go see Back
to the Future. But yes, I'm very excited.

Speaker 4 (08:41):
About Wow, selfish little one here, I'm talking about the
play i'd like.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
So uh huh.

Speaker 4 (08:47):
So we'll talk about that in the moment. But so
popcorn was already bought. Do you think that Captain America
Brave New World popcorn bucket from AMC will be included
if I pred ordered it or not.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
I think you're right.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
I don't think so. So the AMC one, if you
want to check it out. The line it is the shield.
It looks like a shield. It's about as ten inches diameter.
I guess ten inches. That's the bottom and then you
push it down and goes. You pull it up from
the back so it turns to.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
A bucket, and then you push it down to close
it up.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
He wants that so bad. Actually, I do too. Anything
with Captainmerica. I like, all right, so I get another
store I for you guys. This is about Anthony Mackie.
Earlier I was talking about the president. He tells fans
to chill the f out over the Trump Red Hole comparisons.
So if you go online right now, you'll see the
people who are doing like these AI pictures of.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
Trump as the red hull, the hair flapping or okay,
did you see it? You see it?

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Nohow to take a look.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
The actor isn't biting his tongue. When it comes as
an article, I read to marvel this time come in
commentated on perceived comparison is between President Donald Trump and
the Red Hole played by Harrison Ford upcoming Captain America
Faverit World. Mackie recently fell self in trouble with when
he threw America under the bus. He told fans of Rome,
Italy and Captain America doesn't represent America. Following the controversy,

(10:15):
Macreli statement stating he is a proud America respects.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
To armed forces.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
All right, But here's the interesting a most national news.

Speaker 4 (10:23):
Now it was on Fox News what you were talking about,
the comparison, but everyone else was just talking about how
he was Anthony was not there, assuming they just heard, oh,
he's not American, not realizing that he's a captain for all.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
He just happens to be called Captain America. Yeah, and if.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
You look right, for most of the end of his life,
he was protecting the world, not just one country.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
That's true. Yeah, he is the one for the world.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
So it's like hello, So people just need to take
a moment. I mean, it's so interesting because people are
talking about, well, everyone's searching pronouns or labels, and then
the other side like, what do you mean it's not America,
Gulf of Americans. I mean, it's just like stop, you know,
it's like find the middle, be respectful, and don't take

(11:15):
everything literally. And isn't that what Anthony pretty much says
is stop taking everything so literally? Believe the quote is
I hope as a country, we're tired of all the
political jousting. Let's just go to the movies and chill out.
We could have made this for yellow and it would
have been it would have been a problem. So it's like,

(11:36):
stop yelling when it's left, stop yelling when it's right,
like I do to my dear husband Fonseka, and find
the middle and just rejoice what we have enough is enough?

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Amen?

Speaker 3 (11:48):
All right?

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Also, Fantastic four is going to be coming out this week.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Oh I don't like the poster.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
Why it's they're trying to give it.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
I know it's retro, but hey, wait before we go
to Fantastic four. Hi, everybody, if you're on Rotten Tomatoes,

Speaker 2 (12:18):

Speaker 4 (12:20):

It was one hour and thirty six minutes. It is
a side by movies as a couple fall in love.
They defied chile rational futuristic role and its leaders. Lennard Nimoy.
So forty six percent Rotten Tomatoes. So in case you

(12:41):

Speaker 1 (12:46):

Don't hate me, no comments. So February ninth is one
the during the Super Bowl, they're going to put the trailer.

So we've got mister fantastic, missus fantastic Johnny Storm, the thing.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
You remember the robot that came out, Yes, they're gonna
put that on.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
They've mentioned that while ago.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Yeah, I like that. I liked the robot, I did.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
I also liked when she Hope was in there. Now
they should have tiedened She Hope with you.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
You know why because the beginning of the series and
you read Fantastic four, Susan Storm was such a whimp.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
I mean, let's just be on it. Ooh, I'm invisible.

Speaker 4 (13:29):
And then they, I know, they increased it and it
helped with Sheehulk, who is like busted up.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Everywhere where men or women love above. So that's all.
It just seems very sexist to me.

Speaker 3 (13:43):
So let's talk to John Rise Davies. Did they say
raised Davies, right.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
He's such a nice part. He spend so much time
talking to your son.

He was all the way.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
Has a podcast of his own that Fonseca produced a
fonsaka Mommy and Me show, So check this out.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Things he's done, I just it's just it goes on
on the main. He's known for Indiana Jones. Most people
don't even know he's in Lord of the Rings yas
he plays the dwarf.

Speaker 3 (14:10):
Is that what it is?

Speaker 1 (14:11):
It's a dwarf, one of the guys, and it's all
a lot of CGI done to him, but it is amazing.
His voice work is just fantastic. He was plus to
play General Grievous in Star Wars Episode three, but it
didn't fall through.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
Either was a.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
Prank or something or something happened, but everybody said he
was scheduled to do it.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
It never happened, list but remembered.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
WHOA.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
There's so much more. He was in Victoria Victoria. I
mean you're only talking about his Sci five movies. I mean, yeah,
there's a lot, but he's also was in The Living
Daylight's Double O seven and even animation. I know you're
gonna talk about SpongeBob but he also was in Cats
Don't Dance, which, by the way, I got eighty percent
on Rotten Tomatoes.

Speaker 3 (14:55):

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Yes, the man has done a lot. He's a legend,
and he cares. And guess what wasn't he still trying
to do other projects because he thinks that cinema has
lost its magic. Yeah right, I mean think about I mean,
there's been some productions that I would say, whether I
admit it or not j Lo and Gal Gadette on Netflix.

(15:46):
I think was the script was written by AI to
be honest, because they came out before the writers strike.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
All right, let's get a quick interview with him. Let's
talk to the man himself.

Speaker 3 (15:55):

and I I like you, and then like a year later,
they're like, I got you.

Speaker 6 (19:05):
To work, and I'm not kidding you.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
I want to hire you.

Speaker 6 (19:08):
I do all the audio for these stations. I'm gonna
hire you, trusty. I'll get the money, and I know
you're trust me. I want to get you. All right,
I'll let you get back there.

Speaker 7 (19:18):
But would it be from you wald?

Speaker 6 (19:20):
It would not be from my wallet. No, I get
a budget.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
I got it. Is this you'll wonder, Yeah, this is
my wallet.

Speaker 6 (19:25):
Oh, okay, you want to take an now and start
work now, I think you're awesome. All right, my son
wants your audiogot.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
I'm all right, So how old are you now?

Speaker 7 (19:35):
Twelve? Well, it's gonny old. You know. The tricky thing
about being twelve says you know, you're a grown and
everyone's still keeping.

Speaker 3 (19:43):
Like John Riise Davies. Amazing man, I know.

Speaker 4 (19:46):
And he knows how to play a good guy if
you see him in Indiana Jones, but also the bad
guy like in the Prince's Diary series.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
So amazing man.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Who has been doing this for I think what over
fifty years at least?

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Let's see the first thing he did. He's eighty years
old right now. He first appeared he was in Aladdin
television early nineteen seventy, the role as a gangster.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
Okay, over fifty years, Like I said, well done. And
he fell in love because his mother.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Constantly read books to him. Wow reading it as a
world of wonder.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Jeez, he's been a lot, all right. I wanted to
this is I wanted to say this, and this is
just bizarre. This is how the times are a change
in all right?

Speaker 3 (20:32):
You ready for this?

Speaker 1 (20:34):
So every week, and it's just in the Bay Area,
I do thing called What's Up this weekend? And they
send me a list of stuff I get different things
of what's happening, and then I'm gonna get to this
new movie list where I review the movies, tell me
what I think about it, all that good stuff. Now
Disney Plus and Amazon are starting asking me to send
me the new movies or new shows that are coming
out on Amazon and Disney Plus. So not only do

(20:58):
you say what the new movies are off the weekend,
but what new shows or what new movies are. So
this week when I did What's up this weekend? I
was like, this is.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
What's up this weekend? These are the movies coming out
this weekend. You got, let's say, we had dog Man
coming out. That's one, all right, and.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
Then two Disney Plus the new neighbor Friendly Neighborhood spider
Man debuted, and I talked about that. Then on Amazon
Prime it's, uh.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
You're cordially enviral with Barrel and talk about that.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's how times are changing, because a lot of people
it is getting split in a third. They said, I
went online, go is this really important? I'm like, it is.
The audience is going over there. It's amazing how it's changing.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
It really is.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
But Bee said that the new Marvel show You're Friendly
with Spider Man debuted to perfect Rotten Ratio Rotten Tomato score.
Take it Over, X Men ninety seven. Can you believe that?

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Well?

Speaker 4 (21:50):
I mean, you were hyped up about it, And I
always wonder with a critic, how objective can they really be?

Speaker 3 (21:58):
Right?

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Because if you grew up.

Speaker 4 (21:59):
With Spider Man, it'd be kind of hard because here's
a different Spider Man.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Because sometimes I watch some of these cartoons or movies
and stuff like that, I'm like, like, I watched Skeleton Crew.
I liked it later on, but the first episodes I
was bored. That's why they're not having their people stick around. Yeah,
moost two episodes and you want to get a try
and like, eh, do I really want to binge this
because it's gonna be like this. You know, it's not
like you sit in a movie and you're stuck with
that movie. If the first episode is bad, you're just

(22:26):
not gonna tune into the rest.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
Are you talking about Skeleton Crew?

Speaker 1 (22:29):
But I'm talking about that's how it works now with
these shows, like, oh, a lot of people are watching it.
I'm talking about like Amandalorian first episode, I thought it
was fantastic.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
They continued on.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Obi won first episode, fantastic can consider it on Acolyte.
The first one, you're like, h, the woman got killed
off fast. You know it's gonna happen. And then uh,
second one, then it got good.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
That's a thing.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
But when you're in a movie, you have to sit
from getting to end. But you don't have to sit
around for these these shows that come out every week.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
So help explain.

Speaker 4 (22:59):
So your friends neighborhood spider Man correct got a ninety
seven percent tomato meter, but for popcorn meter from the
fans it's sixty three percent.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
It's usually the opposite. What's your rationale?

Speaker 1 (23:12):
They don't like it. If they're hardcore fans, they don't
like it. The way this universe is changing anything around.
He walked in the room. It's supposed to be Tony Stark.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
It wasn't. It was Oscorp. Right.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
You see how everything was different in the universe. Yeah,
he walked in. The characters of different nationalities, everything's different.
I've heard I read some things. People didn't like his
new outfit when he's starting out because he had it.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Isn't that realistic?

Speaker 4 (23:41):
I mean, listen the chords, I mean, the tubes to
his web swingers was annoying to watch, but it makes
sense you needed something because he was because his Genius
High school, I forget the name was destroyed, so he
doesn't have the tech and resources.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
He's just had it.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
I mean, it doesn't make sense anywhere else that he
has a Spider Man outfits that he has for a
poor boy. What I think what they're doing is making
this really realistic. So I don't know, people it's I
don't know. I mean, I don't think it was a
ninety seven percent. I think it was.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
Are you enjoyday?

Speaker 2 (24:15):
No, I enjoyed it, but I don't know if it's
a ninety seven percent.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
I think it was an eighty seven percent, eighty five,
eighty four.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Why is it going down? I'm not hungry for it?

Speaker 1 (24:25):
So here here's another thing about it though, But the
first two episodes were out, I was okay with it.
It kept my interest. I want to see the next one. Yeah,
And it seems like Oscorp, who was supposedly was to
be the Green Goblin, knows who he is.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
And if I'm watching.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
It with the trailer shows and if anything shows, somebody's
gonna supply him with new merchandise or move new stuff
to wear, and it looks like I'm kind of assuming
that oscor if it's going to be different, a better
or better version of this universe, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Okay, so you're assuming he's good guy. Well remember what
was interesting. He saves Harry's from basically being beat up.
So Harry doesn't even go to the same school as
Peter is going, so.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
That line is different, so we will see it.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
But you know, but now I mean that als also
notice the timing too, So at the same time you
brought up the diversity, there's also a lot of legislation
and federal website is being taken down for d I stuff.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
So I don't know if it's a correlation or not.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
I'm so glad about the different casts. It represents a
little bit more of our world. So I think that's
the thing, is whether it's a tube, which kind of bothering.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
But you know what, when it bothered makes I'm not
used to it, but it makes total sense.

Speaker 4 (25:48):
And if you're bothered by the diversity, wake up and
this is our world and embrace it.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
All right.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
I just did something.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
I was working out yesterday or the day before, and
I was downstairs and I'm thinking of doing this once
in a while, because there is these times when there
are these movies they get lost and people don't see them.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
And this happened in nineteen ninety nine, all right, and
I watched it.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
I was laughing, and I'm like, God, this came out
at the wrong freaking time. The movie is called Mystery Men.
I had you Watch You with Me with Ben Stiller?
Do you remember that one?

Speaker 3 (26:23):
I had Greg.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Kanear as what's the title again?

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Mystery Men came out in nineteen ninety nine and had
Ben Stiller, Hanks, Area, William Macy, William h Macy, Great Kanner,
Claire Forlani, Kyle Mitchell and that's the guy from Good Burgers,
Paul Rubins, Pee Wee Herman, Janine Garofflow, Jeffrey Rush was
in it, you know, for the Pirates Caribbean.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
He played doctor Frankenstein.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
I thought it was funny, fantastic, colorful, and it flopped
at the box office and I went to go see
it and nobody went in there. It just it was
the wrong time for these kind of things. And I'm
just saying, this is a movie you gotta try out.
Came out at the wrong time. If it came out
in two thousand and eight or nine, even during the

(27:08):
X Men time when that was like two thousand and seven,
or when did that come out?

Speaker 3 (27:11):
Two thousand and two? Three?

Speaker 2 (27:14):
Which movie x Men?

Speaker 4 (27:15):
Oh my god, there's so many. Oh yeah, I can't
wait for X Men ninety seven, two thousand.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
Yeah, this was nineteen ninety nine.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
Where were you in two thousand?

Speaker 3 (27:26):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yeah, I know what boyfriend I was with.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
I I was married and I went in to go.
I was married with my wife Mellie at the time
had ariel as. When I wanted to see this X
ME movie so bad, I bought tickets for all of us.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
And you were not even that much. Wait, you brought
your baby.

Speaker 3 (27:43):
I had no choice. She was asleep.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
Usually she falls asleep, so she's in there and she
started crying.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
She goes, could you please leave?

Speaker 1 (27:50):
I'm watching. Can you just go outside and I'll take
care of the baby. And I thought, I sat out
there a whole areel and.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
I missed the movie. Okay, so at the time, my
wife doesn't eat them, like.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Superhero movies or comics anything, because I explained to her,
but she mean said, and I missed like a good
twenty minutes of the movie and I'm like, I had
to go see it later on. It came out on
like DVD or something. I saw it later on. It
was two thousand, but.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
I was so upset.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Those are those are the flags when you know you're
with the wrong person.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
Thus, ex wife, there you go. And I missed X Men.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
But long story short, if you get a chance, watch
Mystery Man and Ben Steeler came out in nineteen ninety nine.
It's on Amazon Prime right now and it's free.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Just go watch it.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Wait, it's it free if you have Amazon Prime.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
It's one of those ones where you watch, you get
commercials in it, but you get it free.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
Oh yeah, you can watch it.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
I liked it.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
It's real, and I think that's great to bring up
old things.

Speaker 4 (28:44):
I know some of you and I almost talked about,
you know, like watching different shows like Where to Be Sure,
Temple to Do Three Stooges. But questions as you brought
up X Men, which one was your favorite X Men movie?

Speaker 3 (28:56):
Of all these?

Speaker 2 (28:58):
From the days a few your past to future?

Speaker 3 (29:02):
It was a next generation in future past?

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Is it future paths? I think it's really is X
Men first.

Speaker 3 (29:08):
Class first no future pass.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
I like better Future Past the twenty fourteen one.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Yeah, the original X Men that came out, uh, and.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
It was I loved Quicksilver.

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Oh yeah, I liked all those guys. I loved Quicksilver.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
But these guys in this one just it was okay.
Like I told him, I said, oh, it's okay. But
it just didn't seem action packed. The X Men it
was a little bold, a little the first one came out.
It was a little slow for me. It was a
little slow, that's all was. I liked him as as Wolverine,
but they really developed him to he like, what is it?

Speaker 2 (29:42):
It took a while. Yeah, it took a while, right, but.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
The way he acts now with Deadpool as hell, he
should have been there.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
I know, I know. I think they were just should
have told.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
Him back then there.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Was like he was just starting.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
Remember the guy who was in it was a happily
ever After and also one of the It's an Impossible movie.
He had a motorcycle injury with Tom Cruise. Tom was fine,
but he wasn't so Hugh Jackman was number two. So
for you guys who are out there complaining being number two,
oh aren't you husband number two?

Speaker 2 (30:13):
Sometimes things work out really well at the end.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
All right, we got to wrap up the show.
