hello geeks and welcome to another episode of smack my pitch up the podcast that reboots remakes reimagine sequel
1:05
cycles and adapt some of your favorite and least favorite properties from film and television and what have you and as
1:10
always i got my co-host here dandy
1:21
that line is so iconic there are people that have never even heard of this movie that know that line
1:27
yeah it is it’s crazy it was been parodied a lot of places too you know like several generations of parody
1:34
without context so somebody saw the parody and then the person who grew up with the parody not
1:40
the original was parodying the parody so i i feel like it’s old enough and cult classic enough that people know
1:47
it from that like kind of like soylent green as people yeah exactly people know the line without the context and that’s a feeling
1:54
that i’m starting to get with a lot of movies that i grew up with where we were making a direct reference from the movie but then movies have now made references
2:00
from the movies you grew up with and the younger generation are making references from the references and it’s so removed
2:07
that they’re like what what do you mean batteries not included i don’t know what that movie is you know there’s
2:12
there’s this disconnect and yeah i guess it’s pop culture hurting our feelings yeah exactly
2:18
and this was one of those movies that it didn’t quite hit the uh the popular culture of things but it
2:25
absolutely did uh find its way into the the zeitgeist a little bit
2:30
uh yeah very very cult classic very cold classic we’re of course talking about the warriors from uh oh god when did
2:37
this come out like 78 81 81 oh wait it’s like well maybe it was because i did i did
2:43
see something saying it was released in the late 70s but i also saw something that said it was released in 81 so it
2:49
could have been 78 i think there’s a re-release it’s not a huge release so some of those movies the technical
2:54
release date depends on where you were and uh what what you call official but
3:00
it hit oklahoma in 81 exactly right yeah the midwest finally got to see what it was like on the tough streets
3:07
[Laughter] yeah the the interesting conception of the tough streets uh
3:13
walter hill the director of this did a lot of interesting tough streets conceptions uh he was the director of
3:19
streets of fire which if you have not had the chance to see streets of fire it’s
3:24
criminally unknown like it the movie nerds know it but that’s about it and it is
3:30
incredible it’s it is interesting it is interesting uh the warriors also has just some some
3:37
things that uh borderline exploitation like crime gritty movies weren’t really doing at
3:43
the time uh like matching outfits that wasn’t really yeah it’s it’s conception of of what
3:50
street toughs are is uh is interesting the whole thing is very village people if you take
3:57
every scene in an 80s movie like a popular 80s movie uh where there’s like a punk on a bus or
4:04
the subway that’s like he mean give me them groceries man and he has like a
4:09
switchblade and everybody’s got a switchblade i always got a switchblade and he’s like you’re interested in the switchblade with your outfit and he’s
4:15
like tough punk uh that is what this movie is basically it’s just a bunch of
4:21
switchblade fighting movie and it’s it’s gang warfare but all the gangs are
4:26
various theater kids right it’s like if the jets and sharks invited all their other animal friends over
4:33
to have a dance party um panthers wow yeah right
4:39
so there’s a number of different gangs in this now the basic set up this movie if you’re not familiar and it’s not a complicated plot so i would say that
4:46
even if you haven’t seen this i’d say check it out if you can before this recording but it’s not there’s no heavy twists
4:52
that happen here that uh that you’re gonna be you’re gonna be ruined for you by no it’s it’s
4:58
very straightforward pretty straightforward there’s all these rival gangs that have been fighting in the
5:03
streets of new york forever and there’s one gang uh with one leader who is
5:09
trying to unite the gangs they’re like we are more powerful than the cops if we work together and a lot of these gangs
5:16
are on board they’re like you know what that’s fair um as long as we get our cut we’re good they all meet in what central park to
5:24
have this conversation something like that something like central park have this conversation that’s uh the line can you dig it comes from
5:33
that moment it’s brilliant it’s it’s incredible it’s kind of awesome yeah yeah
5:38
and i’m getting like revved up in those scenes whenever i watch it like even re-watching it for this episode i was
5:44
just like oh yeah let’s take on the cops [Laughter] um
5:50
but then yeah there’s there’s a gang that decides that they’re gonna [ __ ] with [ __ ] and they they killed dude they
5:56
killed the the the can you dig it guys cyrus take a guy yeah he has a name i know he does uh
6:02
it’s cyrus cyrus that’s right the murder immediately gets blamed on the warriors
6:07
which are from coney island which if you are familiar with new york is very far away from
6:12
central park it’s on the other side of the city it’s uh that’s how you can have a
6:18
gauntlet yeah exactly you can’t have a gauntlet if it’s like the next two stops over that they go that’d be like the short
6:24
film version of the warriors where they get off like two stops down the subway they fight like one gang
6:30
and that’s it boring movie uh so yeah yeah there’s there are 25
6:35
gangs in this movie that are mentioned by name i did not go through the 25 for
6:42
the uh yeah it’s so ridiculous it is so like i know it’s supposed to be gritty and
6:49
maybe it it represents the grim and gritty of the era but it’s so it’s a
6:54
silly ass it’s really a silly ass movie it’s silly yes it’s very very silly
7:01
it’s one of those movies that somebody saw like a clockwork orange in the 70s and they’re like
7:06
gangs with costumes that’s brilliant let me make it gritty so that it fits into new york city and then there’s either
7:13
the better they watched batman 66. right they’re like oh look at the henchman that’s great yeah imagine just a bunch
7:19
of henchmen gangs running running around and it’s just people like face paint and like matching outfits and it’s very
7:26
wonderful and it’s silliness but it’s not gritty really it’s got a couple moments but for the most part
7:33
so the warriors are on their way to coney island they’re trying to make it home where they see it as safety and in
7:38
the meantime uh the gramercy riffs who are the gang that are kind of organizing all the other gangs who has cyrus who
7:45
who gets killed uh there they believe that it was the warrior’s fault there’s a dj that’s speaking on
7:52
the radio letting people know where the warriors might be and there’s like a price on their head and everybody’s trying to get the
7:57
warriors where in reality the rogues are the gang that uh
8:03
that killed cyrus and are responsible for it the rogues are trying to kill the warriors before the warriors can rat out
8:10
the rogues remember because intrigue because did the
8:16
warriors know directly before the end of the movie like other people did the the the warriors know that the rogues were
8:22
the ones who killed sorry i don’t think they did if i remember i think they did see them
8:28
kill yeah because they were right next to the rogues that’s why the rogues blamed the warriors is because the warriors saw them do it
8:34
if i remember yeah but they never mentioned that they never mentioned that the rogues are the ones who did it until
8:40
the end of the movie where the rogues show up and they’re like they’re like why’d you do it man and and i thought it was context that
8:47
yeah no it was not mentioned before then i don’t think but uh i i love the greatest excuse ever i actually do like
8:52
this because it’s like people just do dumb [ __ ] sometimes he’s like we just we just felt like it like it
8:58
wasn’t politically motivated it wasn’t because they disagreed with cyrus they were like we just like doing stuff like
9:04
that yeah he’s he’s the i like to do bad things kid yeah great yeah he’s he’s the
9:09
kid that likes to burn stuff and you’re like burning stuff he was like because it’s fun you’re like okay cool
9:15
yeah that dude was ridiculous that actor was ridiculous he was having so much fun in that role and i think it’s part of
9:22
the reason why this movie is a classic but with this i mean this is such a irresponsible film to try to remake
9:29
because of the number of people that are in this it’s such an ensemble piece yeah i hated that i hated that so much uh so
9:36
much i had to take a totally different approach to my normal style of casting which then also changed kind of my ideas
9:43
on what to do with this film so i have two [ __ ] weird choices here uh for my
9:48
re remaking or reima definitely a reimagining of the warriors here did you
9:53
kind of stick to i don’t know like nice costumes and and grit or what
10:00
is it a 70s period piece or did you modernize this uh so
10:05
my film is modernized it still moves in the same way like
10:11
if the script were beat for beat it would basically be the same movie but it’s modern and the context of everything is
10:17
completely different okay uh my context is definitely different as well uh i think
10:24
the the like gangs thing is i don’t know how that really translates to 2022
10:30
really had to try problems with the the whole conception as well like um the big thing for me was and i don’t know even
10:37
what it’s like in the modern time but there was a switchover from and this was before the warriors
10:43
before the warriors period of time there’s a switch over from street gangs being uh just a group that
10:49
either protected their turf or their neighborhood and then might have done like stick ups and like petty larceny or
10:56
whatever to being the protection arm of the drug trade is what street gangs
11:01
became became more organized and more like more martial basically
11:09
they’re not the same thing like the fact that there’s only one or maybe two guns in the whole movie
11:15
just super odd to me and the fact that these gangs aren’t
11:21
organized around anything like gangs are organized around yeah turf or territory or whatever but it’s around acquisition
11:28
in the modern time it’s about protecting the money coming in from the drug trade so yeah it felt like nonsense to me it
11:34
felt like it was probably people remembering the new york of a different time
11:40
like in new york city in the city proper i’m sure that there were like housing developments and projects and stuff
11:45
where people of various races were kind of crowded together poor people but i feel like a lot of the white folks moved
11:52
out of those areas way before the warriors period of time sure so you
11:58
have gangs that are very racially centralized um like i was
12:03
talking to my girlfriend she’s from new york about what street gangs look like in her era and she’s like no it was as far as is
12:10
white people coming together to do a thing gang wise it was mostly like we hate
12:17
the other people that live in the other areas that’s what their gangs came around yeah came together around so
12:23
yeah the white gangs were the ones that had like surprisingly short haircuts
12:28
yeah they’re like like italians or skinheads yeah yeah pretty much uh yeah that was kind of a challenge to
12:34
figure out how to do that i think i found my lead in is that they don’t i guess gangs but not like street gangs i
12:41
is that the difference there that i did is um i’m sure yes there are still uh gangs
12:47
there are groups of people that commit crime uh but it’s not the same as it was like
12:52
this movie portrays like it was in the 70s or the 80s it’s it’s a survival tactic and also like not
12:59
something that i really want to sensationalize in that way and well you know the book was written in the mid 60s and it’s probably based off
13:06
of a conception of gangs from like the fifth from the fonzier because you know fonzie was basically in a street gang a
13:13
so it is it’s based on a conception that is rooted in even an even older
13:18
conception of what street gangs and gang crime is sure when you’re looking
13:24
at post-world war ii there were a lot of uh soldiers that came back from the war that felt kind of directionless and
13:30
also had that taste of like normal life just didn’t really fit into their experience anymore and so that’s when
13:36
the birth of like biker culture bikers yeah and you’re seeing a lot of people like um
13:42
picking up all the what they have and going on the road and joining other bikers and getting by
13:48
through yeah drug trade was a big part of it um arms dealing was a big part of it
13:54
and uh that fed into gangs in general to have some sort of like affiliation
14:00
uh but yeah that that was by the 70s and 80s that level of like having a brand
14:07
uh got to at best having like a common color that was like to represent who you
14:13
affiliate with but besides that it was not some you know stenciling logos on backs of jackets and [ __ ] like that was
14:19
not unless you were a hell’s angel but by then it was like an incorporated brand
14:24
sure the hell’s angels by the 70s the hells angels were literally but literally did security for
14:30
a rolling stones concert so that’s uh it’s different animal uh not
14:36
to say that they there weren’t still and still are some things probably going on in that
14:42
realm that are uh not not exactly above board but oh they controlled the meth trade back then um but yeah they i mean
14:49
the the guys in the gang got older it became no longer just a street gang you got to make practical decisions for your
14:55
thug family yeah exactly practical decisions for my thug family yes um
15:01
so for mine i i’m just gonna dive into mine because uh it shouldn’t take too long there’s a lot
15:07
a lot of names to list but uh i decided instead of casting in the way that i normally do where it’s the main
15:13
characters going through and just hitting seven of the you know most important
15:19
characters it was the different groups that were kind of important in this like swan is important he’s the leader of the
15:24
warriors and all that but like he’s he’s not that important you know like the the the gang is the important
15:31
part their their affiliation together how they fight together and so i thought yeah how can i incorporate
15:37
groups of people that i we know that are familiar with one another in a way that
15:42
they’re the different gangs and then i started thinking about anchorman uh and the famous uh anchorman fight
15:49
between all the different news channels and i’m like there’s something there brilliant there’s something there
15:54
uh and so i decided that the the bringing in swinging will smith too yeah exactly right
16:00
he’s mysteriously absent from this adaptation um so my idea is that we said it in modern
16:06
day new york where the splinter factions that we deal with aren’t street gangs at this point but political affiliations
16:13
and more so than any other uh overarching politic
16:19
group is like democrats and then left-leaning tend to have very specific
16:24
things that they’re fighting for whether it be legalization of marijuana or or are gay rights or uh the green new deal
16:32
and all of these are very important but they’re so fractured from one another that there’s not a lot of chance for
16:37
them to get along and actually like join together and do something um there’s a lot of a lot of infighting that’s
16:43
happening so i’m taking the inspiration from the original warriors and applying it to a fractured um and broken
16:50
political system and uh infighting that happens uh within a singular party and
16:56
uh so these are all different groups that um are supporting
17:03
different like lobbies that are fighting in new york city there’s a big protest happening uh to fight against like an
17:10
oncoming war that should be happening you know that we’re about to go into and whether or not to go into war and whether or not uh to
17:18
take money out of certain budgets and lobbyists are going crazy and it’s kind of like seattle uh back when the
17:25
wto was doing stuff and there was like oh yeah the other the no go zone or whatever yeah so it’s got that kind of
17:32
energy going on for it and it’s just these like politicos it’s lobbyists it’s uh it’s politically motivated people
17:38
reporters that are all kind of part of these different groups and so the warriors are actually just like the
17:44
seasoned um like activists and uh and lobbyists that are like
17:50
trying to do like the green new deal they’re trying to like protect the environment they’ve been through it
17:55
they’ve they’ve been ridden hard and put away wet they’re uh but they’re still like in the game
18:01
they’re they’re not burned out yet they’re still believing what they believe in the gramercy riffs are like the old head near retirement they’re
18:08
trying to get the new big hitters in town to like rally together to try to actually stand up together and get stuff
18:14
done uh the rogues are just the like i would say wall street bro type uh
18:21
lobby contingency uh-huh that yeah just very kind of woeful wall street uh you
18:28
just like really uh alpha male energy you know toxic male kind of vibe to them
18:34
then there’s the turnbull acs which the only thing that they had going for them in the original
18:40
i think it was the bus right yeah they were like bald the slow moving bus the slowing boss of bald dudes i think was
18:46
the only thing um so sure we’ll just make them we’ll make
18:51
them all balding but prematurely balding not like shaved head balding but like
18:56
horseshoe balding yeah like me yeah yeah and then we’ve got the
19:02
orphans um which are just like a kind of a gaggle of the leftovers that get thrown
19:07
together of just all the the forgotten ones and then the baseball furies these are the the big badasses the billy
19:14
badasses of uh the groups that are coming after the the warriors uh they’re
19:20
uh big tobacco they’re big firearms they’re the big heavy duty lobbies that
19:27
are coming after them then we’ve got the lizzie’s and that is [ __ ] hats that is women’s rights uh
19:35
body autonomy like stuff that you know what’s that like uh second wave feminism
19:40
i think so yeah yeah something that’s what’s funny is a lot of the stuff is stuff i actually like do care about and
19:46
do believe in but tone is to be this like absurdist lens on
19:53
extreme micro advocacy where it’s this one one issue and that’s the only
19:59
issue that i’m going to focus on and no other issue and then everything else becomes almost a a challenge to you your
20:05
voice being heard um is kind of the point of this film so just to go through so it’s a political
20:10
film it’s making some political points about like sometimes you’ve got to be able to compromise with people to get anything done
20:16
and sometimes it’s with people that you actually agree with you just have to like give just enough and but it’s also going to be very funny
20:23
uh for the warriors i am getting the a few of the regular hitters from the
20:29
jud apatow crew to show up for this uh we’ve got seth rogen jonah hill jay barachel
20:36
martin starr jason siegel and christopher mintz ploss as the warriors
20:41
yeah that’s that sounds about right yeah yeah i could see that
20:47
and they’re they’re they’re like the the new hot kids in town uh they still they haven’t burned out quite yet but they’re
20:53
seasoned enough that people know not to mess with them you know they got that green new deal energy you know um
20:58
[Laughter] and then the gramercy riffs the old heads the ones that you know
21:04
can tell them young whipper snappers a thing or two uh about what it’s like in the in the uh trenches we’ve got
21:10
the adam mckay crowd uh we’ve got will ferrell paul rudd steve carell tim meadows vince vaughn
21:18
and john c riley i’m loving it so these are you know comedic actors that i’ve
21:23
loved for decades that are you know in their 50s or 60s and
21:28
have served their time for sure but still keep coming out and just killing it killing the game so i feel like this
21:34
movie got made a decade ago and i missed it i just missed it uh then we’ve got the the rogues and
21:41
that’s the uh wall street energy douchebro kind of vibe and i thought it
21:48
would be really fun to see what broken lizard could do with that so we’ve got uh jay chandisekar kevin heffernan paul
21:55
stoder steve lemmy eric still uh stalansky and and then threw in brian
22:01
cox for good measure uh since he was in in super troopers just to be the like douchebag
22:08
slick back hair like lobby for wall street kind of deal with the jp morgan and uh lobbyist
22:15
people in the uh in the movie gordon gekko american psycho energy yeah
22:20
and just let him just let him go big let him just do [ __ ] all of that and i
22:25
think it would be they would have so much fun with it and i’m here for it
22:30
uh then we’ve got the turnbill acs these are the balding ones and uh they’re gonna be awkward and weird um and
22:39
not in a lot of the movies so i wanted a contingency that can do a lot with a little uh so i decided to do mike judges
22:46
uh regular hitters from some of his movies so we’ve got ron livingston
22:51
jason bateman tj miller thomas middle ditch kumail nanjiani and jimmy yo yang as the
22:59
uh as the turnbull ac’s that’s awesome i think your movie just got cancelled just
23:04
got cancelled because of tj miller
23:10
damn dude well trust me like this is a budget they wouldn’t be able to afford anyway with all these
23:16
are you kidding me um you can shoot the movie then you have to go back and replace uh tj miller with
23:22
tig notaro after the movie’s already shot you have the green screen take notaro in
23:27
i would make the accidental choice of just replacing uh tj miller with all the footage they took out of aquaman two of
23:33
amber heard and then they have to replace that
23:39
she’s a monster uh then she should she should have been on the uh on the the rogues team i think
23:45
uh with all the wall street dudes if if uh we’re talking monsters here but uh oh yeah yeah so that’s the
23:52
turbulencies the orphans i wanted the weird ones that they’re they’re funny they’re uh they’re
23:58
respected but they’re definitely not playing in the same spaces of comedy as
24:04
the uh as the other people like apatow and mckay they can kind of like intermingle broken lizard can jump into
24:09
some stuff but uh wes anderson’s tribe is doing a totally different type of comedy uh than
24:15
the rest of them it’s like affluent quiet white humor and uh
24:21
so for for that of course wes sanderson’s regular hitters jason schwartzman bill murray luke and owen
24:26
wilson angelica houston and willem dafoe as the orphans uh gang
24:32
[Laughter] the geriatric or the geriatric performance
24:39
we’re looking for mummies and daddy i just want to see like bill murray sitting there just like eating a bag of
24:44
popcorn and then jason schwartzman just like we just need to be taken seriously and it was like you’re not you’re not
24:51
i’m sorry [Laughter] uh then the baseball fury’s this was very fun to cast
24:58
because there are a few comedic actors that uh are also like built like a brick
25:05
[ __ ] house um or actors that can do comedy really well that are very
25:10
very muscular and so i just like it was just all carrot top infinite carrot top just one carrot top
25:16
actually i did add him to this so good good on you
25:21
[Laughter] it’s carrot top terry crews uh chris hemsworth
25:28
dave bautista john cena and the rock yeah how perfect can you get i mean and
25:34
i think i even listed them from like small to big [Laughter]
25:40
yeah i think it would be just really funny that they’ve got that like badass energy where they’re just
25:45
they’re coming after them with baseball bats and they’ve got their faces half painted and they’re coming after the uh the warriors uh during this whole like
25:53
standoff thing that’s happening yeah it’s just the the biggest action stars that and carrot top that you could
25:59
hope for [Laughter] and then finally that’s too scary for this fun movie yeah no [ __ ] right could
26:05
you imagine being like the [ __ ] mike judge crew and then and then
26:11
the the baseball furies show up uh like all like 18 feet tall like brick [ __ ]
26:17
house having jason bateman trying to talk him down right and and ended up ending up looking like
26:24
the dave chappelle attacker oh [ __ ] like he comes off as condescending even when he doesn’t
26:30
intend to be so yeah yeah that’s not well that’s his bag that’s his uh his acting bag that’s nice niche you’re
26:37
you’re uh your group’s bard uh that’s not who you send out to negotiate
26:42
uh finally we got the lizzie’s and so i just i picked some like amazing uh comedic actresses to be in the lizzie’s
26:49
gang uh so of course tina fey and amy pola are in there that seemed like a no-brainer we also got kristen wiig
26:56
rashida jones leslie jones and christian stahl and nice i think for even as smaller role as the
27:03
lizzie’s role is that powder keg of funny would probably be the scene stealer in a [ __ ] half
27:09
against all these other ones that are like trying to individually smirk at the screen those ladies would just [ __ ] blow it
27:15
out of the park i think um yeah at this because this is really interesting are you imagining this as a
27:21
series of comedic encounters with each one individually or does the overarching
27:27
plot have them all come together and be like um part of the whole story
27:32
um i was thinking that the barest of chances of this being made uh having
27:37
individual encounters is a better choice because there’s a lot of favors that can be called in for this kind of movie that people would be like okay so it’s only
27:43
like four days of shooting yeah i can i can block off four days to come in there and just do like you know a 10-minute
27:50
scene and then call it a day uh and you’ve got enough people that i mean imagine two hours of this i mean if this
27:57
was all on the screen at the same time for even a ten minute portion of this movie it’s
28:02
too much it’s too many [ __ ] people it’s it’s the most expensive movie ever made with
28:07
no cgi exactly so individual individual experiences a
28:12
little bit of overlap just like in the original movie that i think it’s what the orphans and the lizzies i think
28:18
are around each other at the same time there’s some back and forth of course the gramercy riffs and the rogues and the warriors
28:24
are all there at the same time so there’s some of that but um also you’re seeing like broken lizard
28:30
the adam mckay crowd and the judd apatow crowd all on the screen at the same time just doing their thing would be [ __ ]
28:36
amazing oh definitely it would be interesting to kind of play up what was so
28:43
funny about the anchorman fight scene who uh adam mckay is the
28:48
director that seemed like a no-brainer it’s political it’s funny um he did anchorman as well
28:54
and you play up the political angle you play up the the silliness that was in the anchorman fight scene but then with
29:01
these little individual dips in between the fights where you have these actors being able to just have their like spotlight moment
29:08
where they just do like a riff they do a thing they have like a smaller not group ensemble moment and just let them cut
29:14
[ __ ] fly and i think you’re gonna get some magic out of it um you’re gonna have some actors for sure that are like worth way
29:21
more than they’re getting on screen where they’re on there and they have like one line and that’s it and the joke
29:26
is that they’re there and they have one line yeah so but but with uh with an adam mckay movie where
29:34
i think he does a lot of even though it’s scripted letting people just do their thing
29:40
and so people are that are very experienced as actors tend to bring out their natural charm
29:47
if they know they make them under their money off of doing their natural charm thing so yeah i think that would work out and i
29:53
was extraordinarily well you’re getting these improvisational actors they’re all good at improving on set
29:59
and you get them to face each other in like a standoff fight uh so they’re gonna be doing that same
30:06
thing with their wit as well and just bringing like just trying to outdo each other with the most ridiculous [ __ ] you
30:11
can think of um so i i could see this being just like almost too funny
30:18
with the just like there wouldn’t be the breaks that you need in between laughter because everybody’s just like going full
30:23
speed ahead with this so i don’t know too many big guns trying to out shoot each other exactly yeah so
30:28
i kind of want to see what that looks like and it might be a train wreck but [ __ ] it will be a fun train wreck
30:34
yeah so so it’s it’s basically the warriors plot but instead of like gangs fighting over who killed the uh
30:43
the cyrus it was bringing all the gangs together it was a you know a politician that was shot and it being blamed on
30:50
the warriors contingency of like green new deal people and uh them trying to get away while
30:57
other people are trying to use them getting caught as like an angle for their own advocacy that they’re doing so
31:03
they’re everybody’s trying to and of course instead of the radio dj person it’s a it’s a [ __ ] like
31:08
alex jones live streamer type that’s out there just trying to like chase him down on live tv
31:14
so and you can even have yeah as jk simmons uh and he could do basically the same thing he’s doing in
31:20
the spider-man universe right now uh that’s who came to mind immediately yeah well you know that’s how they did
31:26
politics in the gangs of new york era anyway so they’re and even after that
31:32
there’s a president for that kind of thing politics through the the bat
31:37
through this the stickball bat and there’s still some countries that do that so
31:42
oh yeah yeah sometimes ours yeah uh well i mean the way things are going but that’s a that’s
31:48
a different podcast [Laughter] uh so yeah that’s my my [ __ ]
31:55
train wreck of a uh comedy take on the warriors what do you got for yours all
32:00
right so like i said i i really had some trouble uh latching onto this and it was
32:05
the whole gang thing just didn’t work for me so i uh
32:10
i kind of called an audible and uh you know if you’ve never listened to our podcast before we do
32:17
some mashups as part of the uh the format so i just i just decided to start with the mashup okay
32:23
basically my movie is a sequel to the purge movies
32:29
it’s okay the purge the warriors and
32:34
so you’ll see some characters from some of the other one characters just particular but you’ll see some characters from some of
32:40
the other purge movies come in and basically in in response to the purge day um and
32:48
the new founding fathers initiative to you know purge sin through excess
32:54
groups have sprung up in various communities that their whole thing is they train all year to protect their
33:00
community like gangs like gangs of old they’re they they just gather together to
33:06
protect their community they’re marshall they’re well trained uh they’re ready to to kill on purge night
33:12
because you can but in defense they’re not going out and killing random people sure they’re killing in defense of their
33:18
community and as this movement has grown to have like a community defense force basically
33:24
the community defense force is loosely organized in a specific area they have a community
33:30
meeting of the community defense forces under those circumstances
33:36
the leader of the community defense force in that area which is loosely around new york
33:41
gets murdered uh the leader gets murdered off-screen because the leader is uh the leader of what was
33:48
functionally that in the actual purge movies and that actor is dead um
33:53
it was michael kenneth williams was uh carmelo johns and in the purge anarchy
33:59
he was like the the quiet viral leader of an anti-purge movement okay yeah so uh he was the he’s
34:08
the head of this this organizing principle he’s murdered they think it’s the warriors who were
34:14
just another community defense force it wasn’t the warriors it was a plant
34:20
gang so somebody who else somebody else who looks like a community defense force but is not
34:27
they are placed there by the money and influence of the founding fathers to
34:32
shake up and destroy the organization of these uh community defenders i
34:38
i don’t know that seems a little more complicated than i don’t know we just like doing stuff like that [Laughter]
34:46
so they uh they spend the night trying to both fend off purgers
34:53
both individual and organized and other community defense forces that are coming after them for killing uh
35:00
carmelo johns um so as
35:05
uh my warriors as the leader of the g-riffs or that they’re just called the geores
35:10
or not the gramercy riffs uh is um a character who was in was it called
35:16
the first purge he rose over the course of movie from being a gang leader to being like a
35:22
leader leader oh right okay putting him in a position that he was probably
35:27
doing something like this after that movie uh is ilan noel dimitri
35:33
uh i forget what his character’s name is but he will be the leader of the gramercy riffs so everybody
35:38
you know the scenes that cut back to him as they’re trying to find the warriors to the e through the evening that’ll be
35:44
him nice and then for my warriors this is what made this project
35:50
difficult i already was having trouble latching on to it and then finding these appropriately young actors for like a
35:57
gang style thing uh it it hurt it broke me
36:03
but uh going through the characters uh first cast i cast rembrandt uh rembrandt is significant to me in the
36:12
original warriors movies because the actor that played rembrandt is one of the two actors that i actually
36:18
recognized from that movie uh and he played one of the members of the bloodhound gang on three two one
36:24
contact really like yeah he was one of the members of the bloodhound king so pbs guy
36:30
uh very gay unfortunately died of aids in like 86.
36:35
oh so he was taken way too soon but uh as rembrandt
36:41
we have jaden smith so he’s the tagger guy jaden smith as vermin
36:48
who was a significant character he didn’t do a specific thing he was just around for the the full movie uh we have
36:55
from cobra kai uh he plays robbie is tanner buchanan okay yeah
37:01
uh as ajax who is the rapist dude who got off really easy in the warriors
37:07
like when the police came and got him i was like wow you got off really easy because you could have easily been murdered by anybody in this
37:13
entire movie including your own guys and nobody would have batted an eyelash um
37:19
and actually james remar i believe is the actor who played him and that’s the only other actor i recognized
37:25
in the warriors um he’s played a bunch of stuff he was like raiden to
37:30
and um mortal kombat annihilation oh wow i think i blocked all of that movie out of
37:36
my brain at this point he was the uh he was the alfred like character in uh the black lightning on
37:42
the black lightning tv show he’s been in a bunch of stuff throughout his career but uh as ajax i have cameron monahan
37:51
now you probably don’t know that name because i only recognized him from one thing but he was
37:57
basically the joker on gotham he played a character called jeremiah and then later on he played jeremiah’s twin
38:03
brother after jeremiah was murdered and they’re both basically proto-jokers yep
38:08
so he’s ajax as swann i have uh somebody a little bit more famous
38:14
one direction’s harry styles is swan wow and you may know him as
38:22
uh star fox from the eternals if you were able to sit all the way through that boring ass movie uh he was in
38:28
dunkirk and i’m sure he’s been in some other stuff but those are his big appearances uh dunkirk and and the eternals two
38:35
slow-ass movies although i will say though dunkirk was slow still very i like dunkirk a lot i liked it a little
38:41
bit it’s beautiful it’s very slow-paced but it’s technically style over substance like like
38:47
uh what’s his face um his clockwork movies that is like the uh the apotheosis of
38:55
of the the clockwork nature of the movies that he makes and i i love it i
39:00
think dunkirk is awesome um for cochise which was the black guy who got more
39:08
screen time than the other black guys uh we have [Laughter]
39:13
none of them had like a super significant role but cochise is the black guy who got the most screen time of out of all the black guys that’s
39:19
what’s funny is like this is like gangs in the like late 70s early 80s in new york city
39:25
and like cyrus is a black dude that’s like bringing all the gangs together with like can you dig it and they’re
39:30
like sure yeah no i can like four other black dudes
39:36
well the the the leader of the uh the initial leader of the warriors was black but they take him off they like just
39:41
take him out they take him out and he’s taken out off screen yeah like you’re like this guy’s significant
39:47
give him at least a warrior’s death or something no they just they just take him out and he’s just gone from the
39:52
movie he demanded too much services so they just kicked him off the movie [Laughter]
39:59
you had two hot dogs you’re only supposed to have one and a fruit cup he’s like i want two fruit cups
40:05
you’re out we got swan to do it you were supposed to leave pineapple for everybody else you took too much pineapple but as my
40:12
cochise uh ashton sanders uh ashton sanders played the middle age version of
40:20
uh sharon from moonlight so you have the the little kid version the high school version the adult
40:27
version he was the high school version okay okay i mean he’s like 28 or something now but
40:32
at the time you know he was he was very young um as mercy and in my movie mercy is
40:38
actually a member of the warriors she’s not like a prostitute that they kind of bring in or is fawning after one of
40:45
their warriors as mercy i have yara shahidi who is uh yeah
40:50
she’s from blackish and uh what’s her show grown-ish grown-ish yeah i think i’ve cast her in
40:56
a couple things great actress um yeah especially very pretty and uh yeah she’s a good actress the
41:01
only other person i cast is the villain the main villain which is luther
41:07
and that is uh montana jordan and he’s the older brother on young sheldon
41:13
i’ve not watched a single moment of young sheldon so i have no frame of reference
41:18
i’ve seen a little bit but uh at that point i was flat you know how hard it is to like just recognize actors as they’re
41:25
growing like unless you watch tv because that’s where these people start i don’t watch any tv then you don’t
41:32
get to see these actors grow to the point where they get to take on movie roles and uh so
41:38
finding actors under 30 i was going to say like under 25 but now it’s like fighting actors under 30 is hard as [ __ ]
41:46
yeah well especially uh the actors that under 30 that are you know worth their their salt uh you
41:53
don’t want to keep reusing them and stuff you need a bigger cycle of and just younger
41:58
actors there’s the ones that everybody pins their stuff to and then there’s all the other actors that are in like one thing and you don’t know the face and
42:05
it’s it it takes time for somebody to uh to find their project that boom blows
42:11
them out across the landscape but basically uh in my movie
42:17
in my story the warriors do survive the night at the end of the movie uh
42:23
as the the purge end of the purge clackson is ringing
42:28
they find and kill not just the warriors but all of the community organizations find and kill the
42:35
infiltrators knowing that they were actually the ones who uh killed the cyrus character
42:41
carmelo johns nice the purge is over the traitors have been dealt with
42:47
happy ending no because the new founding fathers uh drone strike the area that all of the
42:54
community uh leaders are in and kill them because the purge must continue and they’re the
42:59
people in power so sure that that’s the end of the movie damn you nuked him
43:05
yeah did you just pull the end of the return of the living dead movie or just just nuke him that’s fine
43:11
so i’ve got this thing where it and it’s it’s not healthy but i feel like just uh
43:18
a sad ending or an unhappy ending is more satisfying because it feels more genuine i get that so you notice with a
43:25
lot of my movies they they all end like oh we’re gonna have a great time everything’s oh no
43:31
oh no now that’s that’s bad everything’s bad it’s like there are as it should be there are two different types of people
43:36
and there’s a different ending to the movie brazil for each one of them
43:43
the happy ending and the definitely not happy ending so yeah awesome i dig that i disappointed myself
43:50
on the fact that i didn’t think of the purge at all when coming up with concepts for this because that’s such a
43:56
that’s such a obvious uh turn you know that you can yeah it’s
44:02
it’s a good modern fit in my mind but like i said i was just i was having trouble wrapping my mind around this
44:07
this ancient concept of what street gangs are and it just made it hard to
44:13
it made it hard to do this for me i’m like if we make a warriors movie about street gangs i don’t know what street
44:18
gangs look like in 2022 like they sell drugs and make money but i
44:24
don’t even know what the culture looks like that surrounds that because i don’t listen to the kids music you know i’ve
44:30
seen some of their rappers they don’t look tough but i’m sure that anybody can be tough with a gun and yeah so i don’t
44:35
know we are not of the age to be able to write like really affecting uh stories about like gang violence in america in
44:42
2022. like we’re yeah we yeah we don’t have that uh we could maybe make a movie about gang violence in the 90s as it
44:50
translates to 2022 and then it’d be all wrong and people would come and see it and be like what are you talking about
44:55
old man it would be funny basically like they did with the warriors yeah how out of touch it is would be pretty [ __ ]
45:00
funny um okay so we’ve got our real takes out of uh out of the way here i think both are
45:07
really interesting um plays on the warriors and also further proof of like this was a hard one to adapt
45:14
it is really it’s a very period specific movie and so yeah try to put that in a modern light either that or you’re doing
45:21
it as a period piece that takes place in like late 70s early 80s and in which case what are you doing to uh
45:27
improve the story like what are what are you doing if you’re making it a period piece is there something else that wasn’t said this is a pretty simple film
45:34
it wasn’t trying to say a lot it was uh yeah if you make it a period movie it’s the warriors
45:40
exactly so i don’t want to say it’s a perfect movie but it does what it does very effectively yeah and i don’t think it
45:46
needs to be remade to be the same kind of movie it would need to say something else so
45:52
my remix definitely says something else and that’s the next part that we’re going into is our remix remix
46:00
wiki wiki i need to wear jackets so i can just do the zipper thing for the remix
46:06
we’ll remember that for next time yeah i’m sure that will only be a help uh or some corduroy so you can wipe your
46:11
sleeves together and you know i used to do that when i wore corduroy back in my youth
46:17
it’s a shameful it’s an example of my oldness because i had corduroy as well okay cool
46:24
i think it’s it’s a place in time so my remix uh we are going to the land
46:29
of fantasy a little bit and i wanted to imagine what happens when you take the premise of the
46:36
warriors and you don’t do a whole lot of difference to it but you make it in a more uh post-apocalyptic dystopian
46:43
environment and let’s say if you were to uh look at
46:48
as a blueprint on how to do this movie uh beyond thunderdome that there’s just these little burrows
46:55
in new york that are controlled by powerful uh divas that are
47:00
maintaining different boroughs of new york and they’re fighting amongst one another until one diva stands up above
47:05
all of them and says we can work together and we’ll have more power until somebody kills that diva and then it’s
47:13
such a tragedy that uh the basically the whole world turns on that gang uh to try
47:18
to get them because the diva is dead and so you need a diva that that’s a believable response that
47:26
if that happened to them the world would burn um it would just burn down
47:31
and uh so oh they killed beyonce that’s yeah uh grammar series
47:36
uh osiris in this version of of this uh film is uh beyonce because i mean really
47:44
i was thinking of doing like a classic diva like a diana ross or a madonna or something but i wanted it to stay
47:50
relatively modern um with the characters and who’s a bigger
47:57
diva like queen than beyonce and like no one other oh your breadcrumb controlled my mind and made me choose the right
48:03
answer um yeah beyonce like other divas bow to
48:09
her so um it’s made sense that and also beyonce though very talented not a
48:14
terrible actress but also not the most historically uh involved in film she did an austin
48:21
powers movie and i think that was about it yeah beyonce was never uh a good actress
48:28
she’s i don’t think she had the potential to be a good actress yeah that’s that was just i think we talked about this before but that’s just not
48:33
her particular bag yeah so giving her a smaller role that’s still very important
48:39
it made sense to me but uh the gangs i just took kind of like the
48:44
leaders of the gangs are they uh are the pop divas and then you fill them in with their dancers
48:49
as uh as the rest of the gang uh so this is gonna be a musical oh yeah 100 it’s gonna be
48:55
musical um and so for the warriors i wanted yeah a
49:03
modern but relative still relatively seasoned uh pop singer that can you know maybe take the helm of like leader of
49:10
pop um as so many are wanted to do so gaga is uh the warriors i knew it
49:18
yeah a surprisingly good actress uh so she can deal with the amount of screen time that swan has uh for the warriors
49:26
he is a good actress yep and of course gaga is going to be part of this conversation when you’re talking pop divas
49:32
for the rogues for the uh for the the gang that pinned the murder of beyonce on poor lady gaga
49:40
uh that was all billy eilish’s fault feeling the new kid on the block that just likes
49:46
to cause trouble um we’ve got bailey because she likes doing stuff like that
49:52
yeah and then she’s actually not bad when she was on snl she was actually pretty decent i was surprised no i
49:57
honestly like everything i’ve seen from her i think she gets picked on just because she’s not really problematic like she’s
50:04
she makes music with her brother and like is pretty chill
50:10
probably smokes a vape pen plays video games you know uh so for the turnbull acs that’s the the
50:16
the bus band of of of narrative wells um i not for any particular reason aside from
50:23
that she had to be in this film and uh there wasn’t anything about her specifically that fit any particular
50:30
uh grouping but i think she would have a lot of fun just doing a song behind a bus chasing down uh lady gaga would be
50:37
very funny um lizzo is the leader you know what’s funny like i’m saying these
50:42
in my head as you’re going through the situations and i picked that one too that is
50:48
see what that means is this is meant to be made this uh this pop diva post-apocalyptic warriors
50:55
remake needs to be made then we’ve got the the orphans uh you want somebody that’s a little bit tragic
51:02
that is gonna feel like you know leaning against a window while it’s raining kind of vibe to it uh as as the
51:09
orphans so of course i had to go with adele for that one oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeah
51:14
yeah yeah and then uh to counter that the baseball furies you you got aggro you got some [ __ ]
51:21
edge um a force to be reckoned with so rihanna
51:27
is uh the leader of the baseball furies oh she does have the energy she does she had well when you sing songs about whips
51:33
and chains exciting you uh you should probably have a little bit of that aggro edge and then uh the lizzie’s
51:40
girl power uh in the warriors and uh in a movie that is all about girl power you
51:45
need somebody that is ultimate like [ __ ] like girl pop diva power so i’m uh i’m
51:50
bringing her back from a lot of challenges she’s run into in the last few years britney spears is
51:56
leading the list oh and i own her a bone i well and i thought about turnbull acs but
52:02
considering they were all bald in the original movie i didn’t want to make that the joke
52:08
if the leader of the bald group would be just a little too insensitive so
52:14
uh the lizzie’s made made plenty of sense too so yeah britney spears uh welcome you are clearly if you’re
52:20
talking about iconic pop divas britney spears is absolutely part of the conversation try to remember uh britney
52:25
spears has actually acted in stuff i think i think she was on a few things in her era
52:30
she was in a movie called crossroads where she
52:36
did a karaoke cover of i love rock and roll in the movie and when she was asked if she
52:42
had a choice in what song to sing in the karaoke scene um
52:48
she said yes um and i picked i love rock and roll because i love pat benatar
52:53
and that broke my heart as a joan jet fan so she was a young person she didn’t know yeah she she was
53:00
like probably like 17 when that movie came out so can’t hold too much of a grudge but yeah
53:06
so that’s that’s my pop diva post-apocalyptic musical and i actually found an actor that has worked with most
53:13
of these uh women on music videos and is also a very comp accomplished uh
53:18
director that has dealt with a lot of dystopian and post-apocalyptic properties so talk about a perfect
53:24
[ __ ] match um the director of hunger games catching fire i am legend
53:29
constantine mockingjay also directed videos for amongst a plenty of others
53:34
but shakira janet jackson jennifer lopez pink alanis morissette britney spears
53:40
avril lavigne gwen stefani and plenty of others is uh francis lawrence is the
53:45
director oh my so it was kind of like the perfect combination of things you’ve got dystopian you’ve got
53:51
post-apocalyptic you’ve got girl power girl powers yeah
53:56
it’s it’s kind of a no-brainer uh slam dunk there and francis lawrence and company if you think that this is
54:03
something that is worth going for um i can’t write any music that’s not my that’s not my angle but if you can just
54:09
throw story by on there and throw me a few bucks i’ll uh i’ll happily give you the right you know that movie
54:15
would make so much money it would make so much money so much money it would
54:21
make incredible amounts of money it would be like the pop diva movie of all time it would be incredible
54:28
and the and the costuming i mean there’d be wardrobe people from every corner of
54:33
the earth trying to work on this set for all the the tina turner beyond thunderdome post-apocalyptic pop diva
54:41
energy would be oh my god incredible yeah i mean even if if each artist only
54:46
used their own like uh cadre of stylists there’d still be like a hundred thousand
54:52
people employed by this this movie yep that costume changes oh my god
54:57
ridiculous breakaway skirts like there’d be all sorts of crazy amazing [ __ ] that would be going on with this so um a
55:04
spectacle a spectacled scene that would be the weirdest choice this like 200
55:09
million dollar movie with the biggest pop divas of all time uh based on a
55:14
little indie uh cult classic film from the late 70s early 80s yeah
55:21
yeah you get some k-pop stars in there you have like a movie that’d be bigger than avatar
55:26
right oh no [ __ ] you get the and fair enough i’m not ever gonna [ __ ] with the k-pop stands yeah cool but you put your
55:35
put your folks in there that’s great um or you just have a remake of this
55:40
movie uh with just the k-pop bands and there you go cool everybody’s happy
55:46
yeah my my girlfriend would make me definitely make me see that movie with herself
55:52
so for your remix what are we looking at are you is there’s a pop diva centric like mine or
55:57
oh it’s so close it’s so close but it’s so not at all not even a little bit um
56:02
so for my remake i wanted to once again around the concept of where
56:09
people gathered to form uh coalitions of common interest
56:14
my movie is it’s about gamers okay
56:19
and a third of the movie takes place in the real world
56:24
and and two-thirds of the movie takes place in the game um
56:29
the in the game portion will be strictly like um pixar level cgi
56:36
uh the in the world of portion will be really intentionally static and plain
56:42
the actors who live in the end of the world in the world portion
56:47
don’t do anything like i want the the in-game portion to be big and bombastic with orchestral
56:54
music and special effects everything and then periodically the movie cuts to the
57:00
person at their computer kind of just sitting there like a lump like a computer zombie like pressing the
57:06
keyboard and grunting or whatever nice so it’s kind of an irreverent gamer
57:14
comedy like in the vein of free guy but it’s it’s more crass it’s meaner
57:20
in how it makes fun of the people in the real world but i want i want the the game portion to be like
57:27
ridiculous in how serious it takes itself it i want it to take itself so seriously that that’s
57:33
funny that it’s taking itself like it thinks it’s so important i want that to be
57:39
the funny part of the game portion so uh it’s a
57:46
it’s like a world of warcraft style game um so high fantasy setting
57:52
people have their plans in this case the warriors the ones we follow are people from all over the world and
57:58
they’re all kinds of people they’re kids and old people and shut-ins even
58:03
business dudes and there is uh kind of a massively
58:08
multiplayer uh dungeon um challenge aesthetic where these teams can fight each other in game
58:16
uh what was that old whatever the less offensive version of smear the queer i don’t know if you
58:21
remember that oh yeah that wasn’t uh a great title of a japanese game but i’m sure that there’s
58:27
a new title for what that is i don’t know what it is like the fumble on fred or something i don’t know yeah
58:34
so the uh the the the games uh server managers have made the warriors the ones
58:40
they they’re the ones that everybody else is coming after uh in the process of this uh this
58:45
campaign for this evening so it’s tense it’s the warriors this clan of nine
58:51
versus the entire game world uh your clan has to be at a certain level
58:56
to be in that position because you have to be powerful enough to make it a fun game for everybody but just through the process of
59:02
attrition they die out throughout the evening you see very melodramatic moments of losing
59:09
characters that are like uh sad and in game the characters like crying and being like you will be avenged and then
59:16
you just cut to the dude in his room just click click click click click uh just like a little little drool like
59:23
off the corner of his mouth eating chips code red mountain dew yeah yeah
59:28
um so for my directors and there’s only one reason i chose these
59:34
guys it was because of one episode of their tv show but it’s trey parker and matt stone oh wow okay yeah
59:41
they did a world of warcraft episode of south park that might be one of the best episodes of that kind of tv ever made it
59:48
is hilarious it was so spot on in the moment of its time which
59:54
cartoons never do they’re always like years behind um yeah i love that episode and it’s very
1:00:00
funny i don’t know if south park is still funny but at that time it was still very funny so
1:00:05
uh trey parker and matt stoner the directors i’m actually not using
1:00:11
any big name actors in this all the actors are voice actors like you could have big
1:00:19
name actors as the people that don’t do anything sure i hadn’t really considered it but the the funny part there would be that
1:00:25
they’re there but they don’t do anything that’s not really yeah
1:00:30
but in the game world i’m i’m using actual voice actors because that’s something that that people complain about all the time hiring big stars from
1:00:38
the age of aladdin from uh robin williams blowing that up and them not
1:00:43
doing you know robin williams is the exception but them not generally doing as well as an actual voice actor what yeah fair
1:00:51
so uh in game as swan i have troy baker huge antique voice actor and these
1:00:57
people voice acting is a profession where you voice act in tv and in games
1:01:02
some people are known more for their game voice acting some people are known more for their
1:01:08
their animation voice acting but troy baker is uh he’s joel from the last of us but
1:01:14
he’s kind of a young guy so he’s also like a bunch of other stuff as a young guy’s got like a lot of range nice um as
1:01:21
ajax i have nolan north nolan north was drake from the uncharted games but also
1:01:27
has a lot of rain so if you ever played the uh the the arkham city or arkham asylum games
1:01:33
he was the penguin he was cockney penguin oh wow okay yeah just a lot of range
1:01:38
uh as mercy we have tara strong tara strong is the
1:01:44
probably the biggest of the lady voice actors um
1:01:49
she’s done so many roles i think the one that comes to mind immediately is that she is so uh tara strong is a
1:01:57
famous voice actor she’s probably the most famous voice actress she was on powerpuff girls i believe she was raven
1:02:04
on teen titans go any number of things so she’s my mercy but yeah just a bunch
1:02:10
of voice actors um providing actual voices as luther we have patrick seats who is like an anime
1:02:18
villain guy his his career is voicing anime villains nice uh and as cyrus i want to get this in
1:02:25
specifically we have kevin michael richardson and kevin michael richardson is like the default black guy on like um uh
1:02:35
lots of stuff anytime you hear a deep voiced black guy in kids animation it’s kevin michael richardson he’s uh steve’s
1:02:42
high school principal on american dad okay that’s kevin michael richardson nice
1:02:49
so my concept is is around those two it’s around the cgi game world which is most
1:02:56
the movie the people at home just just being video games zombies
1:03:02
the night ends climactic battle celebration most of the warriors have
1:03:08
survived the night there’s tears and drinking and much praise is given
1:03:14
and then we just have a montage of people signing out of their computers and just kind of sitting there with
1:03:20
their mountain dew and cheetos and uh and the movie just ends with these
1:03:26
people like looking at this blank computer screen damn so yeah you do like a uh
1:03:32
a sad ending for sure nice but i like that point that’s coming
1:03:39
across is that yeah like all this jubilation all this excitement this you know amazing thing that occurred but in
1:03:44
the end of the day that’s just a video game it’s not giving your life any of that you know besides that very
1:03:50
temporary feeling of success and community and community and community
1:03:56
sure all right so we’ve got one last little bit to do before we get out of here and
1:04:01
that’s our uh trailers i think uh mashing up the warriors will be very much fun to do
1:04:08
on on a mini episode moving forward in the future there’s already like three or four ideas that are circling around in my
1:04:15
brain that are oh definitely pretty easy to combine so that’ll be a lot of fun
1:04:20
but for our trailers i’m definitely doing the adam mckay one because the francis
1:04:26
lawrence one would require me to sing in a lady songs and that is not my strong not that i
1:04:32
wouldn’t i absolutely would there’s no fear about me singing lady parts and songs it’s that i don’t want to
1:04:39
like not have any audience left after this episode so i’m going to adam mckay it
1:04:45
up um are you doing your which one are you doing man um
1:04:51
i don’t know i think it might be easier to find music for the purged one so i think i’ll do the purge one okay cool
1:04:57
let me get that cued up [Music]
1:05:08
from the director that brought you don’t look up the other guys vice
1:05:13
and anchorman comes a story of the fight that it takes to find
1:05:19
togetherness join director adam mckay as he weaves a tapestry of political intrigue and
1:05:26
infighting as one politician that can change everything
1:05:32
falls from grace with a bullet and the warriors are blamed for it
1:05:39
warriors played by seth rogen jonah hill chief aeroshell martin starr tracy siegel christopher vince floss and i’m
1:05:45
not naming all the people in this movie they are played by the robes played by
1:05:52
broken lizard and everyone involved with broken lizard uh they have to make their way to coney
1:05:58
island where their offices are are held before the streaming universe uh finds a way at
1:06:06
an angle to make them look even worse this is over political intrigue and
1:06:13
the comedy elite joined forces in adam mckay’s warriors
1:06:19
take my money great i’m gonna slick back my hair for that screening
1:06:25
or a pinstripe shirt with a white collar and yeah the whole nine yard do the whole nine yards the combo that i never
1:06:32
understood at all is though the blue shirt with the white collar and uh and
1:06:38
the cuffs as well are white yeah weird that’s a weird look i don’t know why that’s a thing that people do but
1:06:45
okay um i i guess so yeah universal sign that you know i have
1:06:50
money and probably that i’m old yeah definitely if you rock that look there’s no youths out there wearing the
1:06:57
blue shirt with a white collar all right so you are doing you’re doing
1:07:03
the purge one right i am doing the purge one i don’t if i didn’t mention it in the show because i
1:07:08
don’t remember if i did my director is james demonico who directed the purge
1:07:14
trilogy and almost nothing else so yeah nice putting that out there excellent
1:07:19
cool well i am ready when you are let’s do it cool here we go
1:07:29
america is the body the new founding fathers are the infection
1:07:34
and the cure is the warriors in the fight against the purge the
1:07:40
warriors and other community groups have come together to protect americans from
1:07:46
the purgers and the philosophies of the new founding fathers but in a terrible turn of events
1:07:53
the organizer of the community protection groups has been murdered and it’s up to the warriors to defend
1:07:59
their name from the accusation of crime director james demonicos
1:08:07
the purge the warriors as jaden smith has rembrandt because he
1:08:14
can’t fight tanner buchanan cameron monahan
1:08:21
harry star fox styles ashton sanders and yara shahidi
1:08:26
set out to defend their name from the violence of the purge and the violence
1:08:32
of their brothers in arms will they survive the knights in james demonic goes the purge
1:08:39
the warriors coming with some of them yay
1:08:45
that is a kind of a no-brainer combo i love that that’s great ooh i struggled with that one
1:08:50
yeah this is definitely this was a uh knock down drag out uh battle for a remake and reimagining on this episode
1:08:57
but i think considering the circumstances we pretty did a pretty decent job i mean this is one of those
1:09:03
like almost unadaptable like or unmodernizable movies uh without it coming off as like
1:09:09
either completely tone deaf or uh or yeah old dudes writing stuff that
1:09:14
they don’t have any understanding of so well yeah fully agreed no i came into this thinking i got nothing and i’m
1:09:20
actually very satisfied with the uh the outcome that’s kind of the fun on these episodes
1:09:25
when it’s like [ __ ] i don’t know let’s throw it up stuff on the wall see what sticks and uh we we saw some

what your partner whatever it may be
4:51
remember there are so many great mothers
4:53
out there if it wasn’t for the mothers
4:55
we wouldn’t have the kids that we have
4:57
today
4:58
and there are so many great ones out
5:00
there and especially the ones that also
5:02
are running this game solo
5:05
for the way
5:06
they do it on their own so
5:09
strength to you
5:10
props to you we got your back
5:13
all this other mess that’s going on what
5:14
can i say there’s you know about the
5:16
politics guys so i don’t even have to
5:18
say it if you’re in the know you’re in
5:20
the know and you know that
5:22
there are so many great choices that
5:23
were made to be able to celebrate
5:25
something like mother’s day regardless
5:27
of being a hallmark holiday but that’s a
5:29
different story
5:31
there’s great people out there guys so
5:32
be sure you celebrate it the right way
5:35
everybody’s different but
5:37
the the
5:38
the love is still there plenty of the
5:40
love
5:42
and what else can i say i mean
5:44
i don’t really want to go on a heavy
5:46
diet tribe of things i believe kyle for
5:48
his episode uh once we get it up and
5:51
loaded is going to be
5:53
doing a great review of something that
5:55
will give some great
5:58
parenting
5:59
viewpoints
6:01
if you will from i wouldn’t say
6:03
necessarily an unconventional source but
6:05
it’s not coming from your usual standard
6:07
of
6:08
things of what you would think about
6:09
parenting but it’s something him and i
6:10
have talked about before and he
6:12
definitely wanted to go ahead and lay
6:13
that out at this point he’s a little
6:15
i it’s from a show i mean not no
6:17
spoilers or anything because i want to
6:18
make sure he gets everything he has put
6:20
out to him and hopefully he still does
6:22
this if he sends me something else i
6:23
apologize
6:25
but guys he has a great way to that he’s
6:27
wanted to talk about this and
6:29
it’s even really fitting for
6:31
the mother day mother’s day weekend
6:34
as well because it definitely involves a
6:37
a very very strong
6:39
character of a mother
6:40
uh and a father as well but the
6:43
again we’re going with the holiday right
6:44
now talk so guys
6:47
hopefully everybody is taking care of
6:48
each other we really do appreciate
6:50
everything
6:51
i’m
6:52
even gonna leave it at that really here
6:54
i again i
6:56
i have so much trouble just running by
6:58
myself here
7:00
it’s been a great week leading up to
7:03
a birthday
7:04
to a fun weekend i’m actually taking my
7:07
lovely wife up to new jersey this
7:09
weekend we’re gonna go see the uh the
7:12
view of skew family with kevin smith
7:14
brian o’halloran um marilyn giallante if
7:18
i say that correctly i always feel bad
7:20
because i always feel like i’m gonna say
7:21
it wrong and i probably do
7:22
uh but the whole clerk’s crew jeff
7:24
anderson everybody jmu’s of course
7:28
we’re gonna go up to jersey have some
7:29
fun there see some um not only the
7:32
the people from vue sku but also some
7:34
personal friends as well i and gonna get
7:37
a lovely trip away from the kids as for
7:40
my mother she gets a little bit extra
7:41
time with her grandkids and
7:44
i will make that up to her later because
7:46
i’m sure she’ll be exhausted by the end
7:47
of the week and by the time we picked
7:49
him up sunday at one point
7:51
uh
7:52
and guys i mean that’s that’s really it
7:54
and there’s heavy stuff going on but
7:56
remember to try to stay in the positive
7:59
keep the good times going as as
8:01
well as you can
8:03
like i said politically uh and a few
8:06
other things going on
8:07
there’s a heavy burden and a lot going
8:10
on that we have to continue to
8:13
rally against
8:14
if you will uh
8:16
because again even though i’m just some
8:18
random schlub with a buddy of mine who
8:20
does this podcast
8:22
we still stand with so many of you on so
8:25
many views and things that
8:27
may not affect us or do not affect us
8:30
directly but we still give all the
8:32
support we can and all the love that we
8:34
can for this guys so just keep that in
8:36
mind
8:36
uh there are a lot happening uh we still
8:39
try to stay positive of course but
8:41
in order to stay positive unfortunately
8:43
we have to swing into the opposite of
8:45
that and be sure that we at least talk
8:47
about it we know that it’s there
8:49
acknowledge the presence and what we
8:51
have to do to
8:53
be against it to to push it any
8:56
negativity outside of our lives as best
8:58
as we can guys so i’m giving you a super
9:01
short one here i just want to say
9:02
there’s
9:03
love to all you guys i wish there was
9:05
more
9:06
i i just don’t have a lot right now i
9:09
things are going great
9:11
uh
9:12
any of the big topics i i would rather
9:14
have my co-host with me
9:16
because it’ll be easier to talk about
9:18
it’s
9:19
me just rambling on and i’ve even gone
9:21
longer than kind of i was originally
9:23
thinking i was gonna do for this but you
9:24
know how i do that you know i’ll say i’m
9:26
cutting it short and then add on an
9:28
extra five minutes or something like
9:29
that
9:30
but guys uh
9:32
i just want to say from
9:35
the geek fathers
9:37
me and of course as part of the gui
9:39
family happy mother’s day
9:42
hopefully everyone has a great safe
9:45
weekend i mean we’re going to have some
9:46
crazy weather apparently too so hold

9:51
uh the main message of course is always
9:53
going to be we are one family we’re one
9:56

9:58
lot of this comes down to especially
10:01

10:04
of us who chose to be parents or who
10:06

1:05
[Music]

1:16
if you’re weird if you’re weird uh then uh we’ve got scotty p hey guys [ __ ] you
1:22
hunter what’s up london brown yo and then mike the hobbit
1:28
has this been an adventure hobbit uh a unexpected journey for sure i like it yeah oh [ __ ] [ __ ] hell
1:36
that was a joint one yeah i know pour the appreciate you for the hand job
1:41
what yeah well that too yeah okay again that’s projects that’s why i experienced the drought hands above the table is it is it bad
1:47
that i never the hand job to happen and not the handoff one happens more than the others very
1:52
true yeah okay consistency is key i’m i’m i’m utilized a lot more i feel
1:58
like i’m being used um it’s a give more give than take relationship he’s a kind nurturer yes every time i touch that
2:05
massive [ __ ] meat missile it makes me sad inside
2:15
i can’t touch my fingertips together jesus christ
2:26
i would say officially going off the rails but this whole free play has been where we’re going there aren’t any rails right that’s true
2:33
here we’re going there where we’re going there are no rails god i made a meme of that at some point i
2:39
think dude that’s another sure design in that fawn oh where we’re going for no rails yeah yeah god damn it unless
2:46
there’s another cease and desist for something jesus christ
2:51
incredibly complicated and it took me a long time dune design that was a
2:56
licensed by i think warner brothers but and i’ve contacted our contact uh with t
3:02
public twice and it’s not them it’s literally warner brothers has been so bogged down with submissions that now
3:10
six months later they’re three years from now they’ll go okay hey folks i get it but you know gui also
3:17
wants like their first license design so maybe we can i don’t know get more licensed designs yeah yeah
3:25
maybe it’ll be available by the time part two is released yeah right no show also warner brothers just got bought
3:32
true true and uh mergers they have new ceo is talking about basically
3:37
rehashing the whole [ __ ] dc yeah damn it come on man being like you guys
3:42
[ __ ] up so get over there thank you for the uh april fool’s
3:49
uh schneiderlin [ __ ] you oh that was amazing you saw my reaction that [ __ ]
3:54
hurt bro [Laughter] i was like no like the one thing dc had
3:59
going for it is if they just leave snyder alone because regardless of what you feel about like man of steel and
4:05
batman versus superman they met batman versus [ __ ] [ __ ] even the doctors cut but that is literally the best they’ve
4:10
had outside of this current new batman in the dc universe if the new reader
4:15
iteration but let’s see what they’re talking about because we’ve always the and the animated movies and things
4:22
they’re [ __ ] crazy i’ve been awesome like i’m watching the newest season of young justice as well and all that i thought they ended up the
4:28
last season fourth season is on right now hbo max bro i thought the third season was this was the last season oh
4:34
no no no i’m not a fan of what they’re doing was that a werewolf response i don’t know that’s a good that’s a good show though
4:40
yeah like dude and they have like they’ve kicked it up a notch on season four really but what the new ceo like
4:47
habit was mentioning is that they’re talking about taking everything and i think the idea based on the article i
4:53
read is that they’re tired of all the different versions and universes kind of
4:58
living in the same realm they’re gonna just squash everything and basically be like this is
5:04
dc so any movies animated movies are all gonna be the same universe at least that’s what the way it seemed
5:10
like it was hinted at the one that’s not a guarantee as far as timing goes uh there isn’t a better time because there
5:16
is also conversation this next season of the flash is the last season which even people that are that have stuck around
5:23
for this long for the flash kyle not me um look look i loved the flash and you know
5:29
what they had some amazing scenes after crisis i was done that was god damn it it kind of died for me and and the thing
5:35
is it’s one of those that they should have ended a couple seasons or before like where we are now um
5:42
and so it’s time and so it being the last season i’m i’m great awesome thank you like they did
5:49
a pretty solid job for for uh series and but doing anymore it’s not it’s not
5:55
good is the flash film still coming out then i mean i think it’s already made right like it’s been delayed again
6:02
because of uh ezra miller yeah wrong with him how much can you
6:07
digitally take the main star out of a movie uh oh no no no no no no no
6:12
warner brothers if they weren’t bought out by somebody with common sense if they would just put the dude that was cut out of um
6:19
of the zombie movie that that uh that zack snyder did and put him in as
6:24
esther miller and yeah [ __ ] yeah right you talk about army of the dead
6:30
yeah who’s the the comedian that they cut out of that that they put uh um
6:36
oh god damn it was i can’t remember her but tignanterro take took over took over did a [ __ ] great job yeah but yeah
6:42
the dude that got canceled for like [ __ ] with underage girls yeah
6:47
[Music] so they just did everything in green screen and just like put it can you get
6:53
into this helicopter and they get off the helicopter get back on like really like just shot for shot just turn your
6:59
head slightly i think it’s to the right yeah yeah you can’t tell at all imagine being such a [ __ ] bag
7:06
that you get erased out of a film that you already screen wrapped yeah like it is wrapped and they’re like now we’re
7:13
getting tig every part of your anything that was recorded with your face on it
7:19
is gone or deleted or they could be like oh you paid me yet true well yeah i’m sure that
7:26
happened but back to the flash i think um what they’re gonna probably is end
7:31
with the flash because i mean they’d put too much into that with um michael keaton and everything else they have too much
7:38
into that and i think ezra miller there’s variants of the flashlight um they’re being released
7:45
which one’s being released first the black adam’s already been just like it’s done no i i know but um well they’re both
7:51
done right like i care more about black adam no i agree don’t just
8:02
[Laughter]
8:10
right too much muscle but i think they they have too much invested for flash literally every fast
8:17
and furious past four it’s like there’s too many muscly men okay okay hold on well there’s too much muscle and
8:23
brain no jasmine was not exactly smart aquaman um never mind cause fast furious has no brains
8:28
no no no no no that that one is mindless explosions yay
8:33
we’re in space in a car they turn into a spaceship are you guys [ __ ] actually everybody constructed
8:39
thinking into a fast and furious movie have we covered this enough you do not do that we are breaking the rules
8:45
a car can’t be in space yes i know a car can we’re not watching it for that kind of [ __ ] right yeah don’t do that earlier
8:52
in the same movie tarzan over a [ __ ] chasm well yeah because it hooked the bumper
8:58
strong bumper intentionally yeah centrifugal force bro centrifugal force always goes faster yeah i think always
9:05
watch this and then he like caught the rope with his tire like [ __ ] you did not plan that
9:12
yeah don’t ever critically think don’t hate the game live life one quarter mile at a time bro
9:17
that’s right family i think was about a quarter mile to the bottom of that chasm and that’s where it should have gone
9:26
hey corona has big stake in that [ __ ] movie series okay so that that literally
9:31
goes to tell like if we were talking about marvel we never would have divvied over into fast and furious now it’s [ __ ] dc there you go but d i think dc
9:38
is still going to wrap up everything that they promoted what just a few months ago with their big dc content
9:43
i think the smart move the smart money goes to that uh the batman is so [ __ ] good
9:50
drop the day that we’re recording this it’s very good uh and it’s very dark and it’s also not connected at all to the
9:56
snyder verse so that’s how you do your reboot is that like oh no we already started it i guess
10:02
right then you do like a ultra dark how did you incorporate joker joker
10:07
already got incorporated yeah it was a deleted scene i’m talking about joaquin phoenix
10:12
movie joker oh well the the way you incorporate that is and that was already thing that was talked about is that that
10:18
joker may not be the joker he’s the first iteration of photos
10:24
which yes because goddamn the movie is so good and also yeah if you can like backdoor
10:29
incorporate that as like a prequel to the joker where it’s the person that this dude got inspiration from to be
10:35
there it’s the person that literally broke who technically wasn’t bad innately that now we have the joker that
10:41
is no just a straight [ __ ] special go back to go back but go back to the the red hood exactly criminal
10:48
aspect of you know he got inspiration from the joker after he falls in and do all that [ __ ] [ __ ] yeah that would be
10:53
brutal yeah so you guys for the whole retcon uh m and m not uh there’s a couple
11:01
really good properties in the dc universe unfortunately they’re gonna get wiped with everything else wonder woman
11:06
the first one’s like one with [ __ ] yeah i mean i didn’t like it and they come about with the plan i mean that’s the camera you mean like
11:16
guess how many movies came out before the avengers movies enough to introduce the avengers the avengers and before
11:22
they became a group how many movies came out before you got justice league two two two two
11:28
and our introduction prior to that was what um no wait 30 seconds suicide squad
11:33
first you know more batman yeah the new ceo of dc that’s making all these big changes and is planning on a
11:40
connective universe is actually called uh seven kaihi
11:46
he’s just a dude with a mustache that looks exactly like kevin feige so i’m i’m thinking that he might have some
11:52
ideas he seems like a smart man
12:03
not only is he dealing with the cinematic universe he’s also hands in all the shows how the [ __ ] but it
12:09
already looks like the guy that is like using a magic eraser to wipe off all the crayons on the garage door like and
12:16
that’s the look on his face all the time like yes we’re gonna have this happen and people ask them questions like yup
12:21
no that’s a thing that’s happening and just like dead-eyed tired like he’s so he’s he’s maybe the
12:28
tire most tired man in hollywood in hollywood right now seriously what what level are we at now um what generate now
12:34
four wheelers yeah yeah come on we’re now to moon night the characters that i am just blown away
12:40
yeah we even got into anything hardcore yet right [ __ ] like he’s already covered the mainstays and
12:47
now we’re on to like third level
13:04
that so university is huge but i’m just saying like you’re getting like i said miss marvel [ __ ] she-hulk right now
13:09
we got a airing moon knight who the [ __ ] everybody gave up like that’s right who the [ __ ] [ __ ] blue knight was kind of
13:16
everybody said oh that’s just the marvel version of batman it’s fodder yeah it was fodder in the marvel right so you
13:21
know they’re like still setting up all the big dogs they got from fox they’re going to be rolling
13:27
in that are the most important characters out of fantastic four and the x-men yeah the one
13:33
that they sold the rights to because that was the money makers they were like spider-man uh and then sony was like we don’t know
13:39
what to do they’re like cool um no no spider-man still is owned by sony yeah yeah
13:44
still owns them no no sony saw a little bit too much green on that one and we’re like yeah
13:49
we’ll work with that a little bit we’re not releasing the reigns just exactly right yeah but after morbius they’re
13:54
probably like well that’s the funny thing is that they’re like yeah we don’t need your help just with spiderman and like so we
14:01
could do whatever we can with the other characters in spider-man’s universe like yeah go ahead and oh [ __ ] then coming down people are like okay
14:08
it’s okay the second venom comes out and it’s like okay it was fun but jesus christ dude right
14:13
i swear to god and i stand by this you can just tell how hard that movie was edited and that was the [ __ ]
14:20
problem and it’s carnage and it’s not like you mean again where literally there’s a character who is in a trunk in
14:26
a car and the next scene is driving and you’re like you how did you don’t worry
14:31
about it though yeah you’re in the truck i’ve ever watched since then how about the breakout scene he literally comes
14:38
through the door of the main prison hall and then like throws his thingy things around and then like the carnage tornado
14:44
the carnos tornado and then the next scene he’s literally three quarters of the way down the hallway i’m like how the [ __ ] did you
14:50
didn’t jump you were walking and just stabbing people like you were just slow walking stabbing the biggest super power is the control
14:57
of the frames they call me the editor but it’s not
15:03
it’s funny because that’s good actually both better movies are not really that
15:10
good but tom hardy has the reason they’re good but then then you get to that third
15:16
sony spider-man universe movie and we’re like [ __ ] no no watching that yeah the thing is that that got pushed back for like
15:23
two years it got pushed back that they were like oh we gotta wait for morbius and no one was excited at the whit at
15:30
first about it and they’re like gotta wait and we’re like we’re we’re not yeah like we’re not so guys just let me know april
15:36
for april we’re released like right next to april fool’s day so when they released it like you know mark your
15:42
calendar like oh i’m parker right like that co-worker that has a band that’s been practicing and they’re
15:47
like look i think we have something lined up next month i’ll let you know like so you can go and you’re like okay
15:54
didn’t work out but like in three months we have another gig and we’re gonna do that and you’re like great yeah i’ll be there and he’s like oh that didn’t work
16:01
out and he does this for like a year and he’s like oh no we’re playing the [ __ ] elks lodge
16:06
[Laughter] are you there and you’re like cool yeah
16:12
and you’re like oh man i’m sorry i was busy like i don’t i don’t care my kid got sick i do not care but like i feel
16:18
like that um i was strictly for the fact that i never thought i would see morbius in a film
16:26
like i loved him in the comics and i loved him in the animated 90s series i i mean even how much they had to change
16:31
him in that animated scene they still did a great job with the characters
16:36
dude i don’t they i think they wrote him really well and so for me when i saw there was a morbius movie i was like oh
16:43
[ __ ] and plus jared leto which you say what you want about him is his cry his like catalog is definitely a higher
16:49
percentage towards the good versus better his character acting is phenomenal yeah when it comes down to it
16:55
worth what the actors have to deal with from his ass though i feel like he is extra as [ __ ] right right i feel
17:01
like our show runner page is a kind of a determination of how bad a comic property is going to do when there’s no
17:08
excitement a la eternals a la [ __ ] that movie
17:13
like if there’s no excitement and when there’s excitement you go hey who’s going to see this or what we know when should we try stuff there was no mention
17:20
of ricketts that movie is really [ __ ] bad because at least nobody’s been at least like oh
17:26
man you know i’m ready to see it but i can’t [ __ ] see it in time like that’s the minimum we get for something that
17:33
you really are into like when you get crickets you’re like they don’t even we never really [ __ ] cares anything in turtle’s related at all [ __ ] that that
17:39
movie sucks so bad dude it was so bad i i finally watched that on disney plus
17:45
you fall asleep did you watch it like three parts [ __ ] basically god damn it i totally took that movie as okay great
17:52
this is the little in-between sword that they’re telling before phase four no no it’s a huge part apparently down the line of phase four not anymore
18:00
kevin feige is like no i’m just gonna wrap that [ __ ] up exactly what happened would say kevin just erasing a timeline
18:05
off there you gotta rewrite something initially it was supposed to be like a huge chunk up moving down the line for
18:11
phase four the after credit scenes are the you should look at that right i had to watch the movie just the credits
18:16
parts of that movie yeah in the incredible hulk when they set up the leader uh in that movie and
18:22
then i guess he’s just [ __ ] off and yeah being smart he’s
18:31
the leader they’re just like nah loki’s popular [ __ ] the leader oh god
18:36
i’m just saying marvel lucked out that spider-man uh far from home came out
18:42
like right after turtles because all these [ __ ] talking that happened turtles
18:47
disappeared because everybody’s like [ __ ] spider-man there’s three spiders dude like and distracted by it from you
18:52
know marvel had a bomb right like that movie bombed but nobody talks about it because it came out a month before well
18:58
they had black widows slightly bombed too prior to this well that was a while that was a weird that wasn’t that was
19:03
because of based on how it released digitally yeah i have zero reason to watch that film no i mean i like i like
19:09
black widow it’s good um timing is horrible i would never i would never punish somebody by making them
19:14
watch black widow i would do that with internals i’m like you [ __ ] up now you sit down for two and a half hours i don’t care how it gets yeah look i was
19:22
worried that the bomb was going to happen before end game that they were setting up this whole
19:27
[ __ ] thing and then they were going to end with a big old green splat of [ __ ] as the like the crescendo of
19:33
the story right the fact that they nailed end game and then pulled in that entire arc together into that like that
19:41
cohesive story um i’m like cool you get a couple bombs like you’re you’re yeah no
19:47
marvel can have a negative like they really never had any straight up bombs
19:53
up to that point they had ones people didn’t like as much world and people said [ __ ] the first thor movie i don’t
19:58
give a [ __ ] what you apologize [ __ ] movies but again all those that we talk about i’ll still watch before i’ll ever
20:05
watch eternals eternals is unwatchable my i would watch the first story over that yeah that’s what’s cool absolutely
20:10
yeah yeah yeah they made an unwatchable marvel movie which yeah i never thought and that’s why that’s that’s the level that i’m putting it at is like
20:17
that’s like the first unwatched dude that’s the first movie that marvel movie that my son and i have gone
20:22
to where both of us [ __ ] fell asleep never has never [ __ ] happened that’s
20:28
the first marvel where my son looked at me 30 minutes ago again uh how long is this movie and that’s the
20:34
how long do we just sit through this [ __ ] like that’s never happened to marvel before they literally made icarus
20:39
kill himself by flying into the [ __ ] sun damn it
20:46
i’m sorry it’s so oh dude i saw that i literally was just
20:51
he was flipping are you talking about captain downer yeah i was flipping off the screen in the movie theater and my
20:56
kid was still asleep you told me i woke up you told my ignorance captain downer yeah every time there’s characters that
21:01
are excited to see each other he comes up and goes you know blah blah blah and like that makes everybody just depressed
21:07
and upset i’m like god damn and he’s doing it to the audience too yeah oh yeah so bad
21:14
downer of that whole movie is that it was the first time that there was a major character in a marvel film that was like
21:21
of the lgbtq community and and they showed it and it was really like warm and charming and and lovely uh
21:29
and it was just it had to be in that movie it’s it’s it’s like yeah i know it’s like black history month being in the
21:35
shortest month yeah it’s almost like and and right and the coldest the coldest
21:40
shortest and the coldest month like no one’s going out to party and you have the least amount of days cool and the
21:46
shortest days of the entire yeah it’s like it’s just a whole like all right sorry i hit the mic
21:51
[ __ ] up and angela jolie sucked it like yeah
22:00
against the entire ideology of the marvel universe where they when especially bringing b characters they
22:06
bring in new actors what they they [ __ ] line this [ __ ] up with [ __ ] selma hayek [ __ ] angelina jolie what
22:12
you like blew your load on a [ __ ] budget how about you write a [ __ ] story god damn it yeah sorry
22:18
sorry i mean i 100 agreed that before this movie came out i was like
22:24
part of the charm of the marvel movies is you’re creating celebrities in these films you don’t get ones that are
22:30
already like ultra famous yeah i forget the [ __ ] stick who played icarus but he was famous it was the opposite of what i was part of game of thrones with
22:36
guardians you introduce these individual characters and then you put them as a team element and it worked and then
22:42
internals you already had them as a team and then you split them up and you’re like i don’t why would i care about these i don’t care about that i don’t
22:47
know any of you yeah there’s bull cup mcgee movie
22:53
then he’s just like i like controlling people who like really wish he wouldn’t he was like i’m gonna and they’re like all right all right whatever like like
23:00
that’s the whole thing is that the whole point of the movie is that they can’t go against their god right
23:08
and they’re like cool uh let’s not do that the entire time since the time they
23:13
broke up to the time they get back together he’s been controlling people the way that they told him not to
23:19
control them and then when they’re like no we need you because the the the [ __ ] deviants are back he’s like cool
23:25
and there’s no conversation about you literally like ruin hundreds of people’s lives did you do
23:31
the thing we told you not to do all right don’t do it don’t do it again next hundred next hundred years
23:37
shame on you yeah so i mean and then he’s fine and then he’s like flirting with chick again and
23:43
they’re like oh yeah like we might [ __ ] and totally don’t i’ll i’ll be honest like don’t [ __ ]
23:50
don’t [ __ ] bowl cut do not do not bang the bowl cut no no i was a little nervous that people were
23:56
gonna take experiencing that with the turtles into something like moon night because moon knight’s not a well-known
24:01
property but so far it seems like people have not well i mean that has a lot to
24:06
do with who they cast this moon knight because he’s so old oscar is a golfer [ __ ] cliff that
24:13
gorgeous bastard damn right can we just i got i got to say it again can we talk about was it him
24:18
crushing it and doing or was it his [ __ ] beard holy [ __ ] that beard was goddamn glorious stunning beard was my
24:24
friend dude right that was a gorgeous beard it’s one of the best be like just the right amount of pepper on it just
24:31
the right amount that beer perfectly chiseled beard god it was the beard that ruled the people
24:38
seriously dude that’s a shirt i mean when they showed him in the first
24:43
scene when he’s signing up when he’s signing uh the contract right it’s like god damn dude why haven’t you had done
24:49
the beard before [ __ ] and also i will say that i do have a couple misgivings about moon
24:55
night uh nothing too major i i have been enjoying it but the fact that oscar
25:01
isaac is moon knight is the thing that’s keeping me in oh that’s like that if there was another actor
25:06
and the thing is because it’s hollywood it would be a hard play there’s two people that you can go for
25:11
it’s like oscar isaac or ben kingsley but i also kind of want to see the best
25:16
or whatever what’s his name from uh oh they could use that and tie it into the iron man 3.
25:25
you forgot about what’s his name for bohemian rhapsody who also oh
25:30
honestly he wouldn’t have done a bad job he does not look anything like no yeah but he would have done the last
25:36
lovable like [ __ ] up in the first episode when he’s really figuring out he has ultimately personality
25:49
that was really good i’m so glad he’s getting like highway money but like when he was doing that you know tv series stuff when you’re
25:56
like a dark [ __ ] role yeah he’s a good [ __ ] actor yeah he’s really good he’s a really good guy yeah and obviously freddie mercury yeah i love
26:02
that hollywood is just like egypt uh i mean we got like three people yeah there’s um yeah [ __ ] okay so
26:08
ben kingsley too old uh remy doesn’t want to do oh no you could have gotten uh jake gyllenhaal to
26:15
do hershey’s that’s true yeah that’s true the prince of the moonlight yeah
26:22
that had been [Laughter]
26:31
no no it was a christian bale and the guy from warrior he played the older brother he played the pharaoh didn’t also have one of the dudes from game of
26:37
thrones yeah it had uh jamie jamie really white [ __ ] man cover i
26:44
haven’t seen that one but it’s interesting why is it that the uh people have british accents again part of the
26:50
country yeah you don’t have to do that you could just like jacob has a terrible
26:56
bad british accent that’s unnecessary just prince of thieves kevin costner that [ __ ] nobody cares that’s what i’m saying
27:02
yeah and for some reason he is doing that and you’re like you know that nobody has a british accent in this part of the country you don’t have to do that
27:09
we also know he’s not brown yeah like like if you’re gonna put jake gyllenhaal as the prince of persia
27:17
yeah gyllenhaal very persian gave two shits everybody else has an
27:24
accent except for him he’s like well no slaters wasn’t really an accident it was like a kinda and then i’m just saying
27:30
he’s like my home and you’re like really you sure you lived here your family gave me more [ __ ] about
27:36
sounding like he was from west africa [ __ ] britain
27:42
holy [ __ ] christian slater fork bay he cleared it no he was just like [ __ ] me he cleared it
27:48
right clean [ __ ] american accent um this is our term but we’re talking about
27:54
like you know properties that are coming up with marvel but like we haven’t really brought up much about what’s getting ready to happen in the
27:59
star wars universe like oh there’s a few things on that there’s a few things
28:05
the new [ __ ] obi-wan series a lot of people are worried about so the big thing that i’ve been reading and that i
28:10
am afraid of myself that they’re going to get a little too [ __ ] cock-hungry and like basically if you’re going to
28:16
bring in [ __ ] vader during this and they need to be completely separate where they maybe you can allude to them
28:23
being in the same area at some point but they can never meet during this series because that will
28:29
boycott is going to happen out of there we’ve already talked about that no they’ve already talked about there’s going to be another duel between them no
28:35
[ __ ] that because the [ __ ] movie no no [ __ ] that i will stop watching it [ __ ] look it’s one thing with the
28:40
mandalorian that they started incorporating characters from the uh the frame because uh the
28:46
gentleman that along with uh [ __ ] john that was doing it was also the person
28:52
that created a lot of these characters in the clone wars cartoon yeah so right he knew these characters front to back and he
28:59
knew how to incorporate them into uh that universe there were a lot of unknown characters a lot of new people
29:04
that you were meeting so when they pulled in boba fett it was actually really good because it’s surrounded by a
29:09
lot of characters that have been fully fleshed out um when you put boba fett by himself it’s like
29:15
so what now i don’t know like there’s guys come and we fight him
29:21
how’s amanda doing let’s go back to mando real quick yeah he has to go in the bantha tank all the
29:27
time because he’s old and fat yeah this is great television uh anyway meanwhile
29:33
in another universe mandos wait luke is training [ __ ] grogu all
29:39
right all right a good five episodes for boba fett like we’re supposed to have eight oh [ __ ] uh yeah wait how’s mando
29:47
doing like yeah we can still talk about mando right it’s the same universe right hold on hold on
30:06
they did allude to they did a good setup if that was their intention realizing boba was like
30:12
getting dry as [ __ ] bringing in mando especially when he finds the
30:17
badass forger chick and right like you took your helmet off or you’re no longer mandalorian
30:22
so he has he has no other place to go now he is not part of the mandalorian so it actually fits in the writing it just
30:29
sucks that like had to come on the coattails of boba fett to tell to show that he fits into boba fett
30:39
i feel like robert rodriguez was like i got an idea we’re doing like a western thing uh have you seen dances with
30:44
wolves yeah he’s like we do that with the sand people apparently like the wrong
30:50
freaking skin raiders yeah but they were called the sand people yeah are we not allowed to say sand people
30:59
who got pissed off about that did i miss something really like that the term is tuscan
31:05
raiders star wars [ __ ] toxic gatekeeping [ __ ] right sorry
31:11
i mean basically yeah i missed that yeah you missed that yeah that was the thing you were [ __ ] sad people in the
31:17
universe that is the like disparaging listening to their sand people music and
31:23
because star wars is so real wow so real um people are so
31:36
[Laughter]
31:45
geez no but yeah like the tuscans and and then they’re the native americans and kevin coster is the mandalorian and
31:51
he like he’s like i am one of you now and they’re like yeah we like you man lauren you can be like us and then he’s
31:58
like cool and then they all die and he takes their their [ __ ] and he like is a better person for it brings it to boba
32:04
fett not man boba fett or yeah yeah yeah 100 percent of star wars dances
32:10
with wolves [ __ ] thing which is weird basically yeah and robert rodriguez is just like [ __ ] let’s do this and
32:15
they’re like okay i guess yeah sure it worked on avatar start working on it and then as they’re doing he’s
32:21
like [ __ ] this is not working what’s that other dude doing yeah
32:36
i don’t know mandalorian get bryce dallas howard to direct an episode [ __ ] it let’s just do like what they did before that worked i don’t even know
32:43
anymore yeah but now it but literally all the end of boba fett season one had me looking forward
32:48
to was season three man yeah i mean like right it’s he’s got a hot rod now but
32:56
yeah they did use all those characters there that are going to be very big in obi-wan so a lot of the articles and
33:02
stuff i’ve been reading is talking about the the time frame of where everyone’s going to be at so we’re going to see vader at like po right at post revenge
33:09
of this like pre-rogue one post revenge of the sith where he’s living in that [ __ ] tuning fork castle to channel
33:15
the sith power to kill him that’s what’s keeping him alive is that
33:21
tuning fork for the sith basically right how bad is that son though because you’re going to go from ooh mcgregor and
33:27
you see luke as a child right yes and then how old is luke i have no answer for this conversation
33:32
okay i have no answer for you my answer is the timelines are always [ __ ] when it comes to hold on wait no
33:38
tatooine has two sons right sometimes go faster there you go yeah maybe that’s two sons sure i’m i’m just
33:44
doubling science double yes double the uh the sun exposure so you’re saying that when he died
33:54
mcgregor you leave as i’ll get this and it’s a 10-year difference that’s a lot of exposure to the size you show up and
34:00
like that’s tucson show up at like 38 40 you leave at like 65 yeah
34:10
maybe ah dude he’s gotta be like 60. no he looks 60 but i’m saying age-wise
34:17
yeah he’s like you know like i want something at the end of that series
34:22
don’t drink that no everyone don’t drink that it’ll age you by 30 years and in
34:27
combination with that i believe that’s the way the star wars has worked because if you look at like with reading the
34:32
original books they tried to give timelines and you look at the years and you’re like how the [ __ ] does that work i’m just
34:39
saying in the trailer it’s a trailer for obi-wan you see him watching what we would guess would be luke and he’s looks like
34:46
five or six yeah and it’s uh mcgregor yeah and we know in a new hope luke’s what in his he’s a what 20 yeah 19 19
34:55
yeah director his age 40 years okay cool but no the two sons doesn’t make a difference because like the actual
35:00
science of uv rays does not change well and and also burning of the skin if you look at the way the universe is set
35:06
up if if you really want to go the if you want to go scientific i mean um put your glasses up when you do that
35:12
oh scientific is uh because the way the galaxy is is
35:18
also laid out they you are talking about outer rim versus entering internet and so the core planets that that’s a good
35:24
leading to this the how the time functions could be different technically because this is a galaxy that aren’t generally following
35:31
our standard on our understanding of of the galaxy right exactly that brings into the grogun where like
35:38
so at the end of boba fett when luke helps go groggy remember because he like ptsd blocked that [ __ ] right like and he
35:46
helped him bring it get his memories back you see under attacking the temple and then he
35:52
like blacks out well this is supposed to show like vader with order 66 basically
35:57
going around killing all the [ __ ] jedi well which is gonna be [ __ ] badass more jedi kids getting killed yes okay
36:03
cool yeah all right whatever dude i’m just saying that’s that’s what the order 66 did bro you can’t
36:08
and then also um grogu at this point will be in the outer rim somewhere along with ahsoka they like all these people
36:14
they’ve already introduced they’re supposed to come back in but you’re gonna see where they’re at prior to
36:19
you know where right now with like mandalorian okay because i figure all that’s happening roughly
36:25
like you know mandalorians post return of the jedi right time frame years after jedi but okay so
36:31
that time frame is what like six years well seven years what because like it’s like what like empire and return there’s
36:37
supposed to be like something like something weird like a five to ten year timeline i think yeah between the movies
36:43
i think the first the original trilogy supposed to be yeah so aging is slower so how we the sun thing’s gone
36:49
yeah i don’t know because luke was there’s no way luke was in his [ __ ] 40s and return the [ __ ] it’s running memes on the internet everybody’s just
36:55
like yeah like [ __ ] obi-wan had some hard years that’s just two seconds
37:01
we decided there’s two sons yeah i think what we’re going to find out is that obi-wan runs for president of the
37:06
planet and that’s what ages them so much because if you look at every american president yeah from the beginning of
37:12
when they start office to afterwards they’re like oh you’re gray now yeah right you work basically especially ones
37:18
that get two terms oh buddy look at w and look at obama like oh yeah they were railroaded it always
37:24
bothered me they were right that’s why when obama was windsurfing i’m like good for [ __ ] you
37:30
it always bothered me though in a new hope how obi-wan he’s hiding out on tattooing right you know kind of not
37:35
standing out because he’s a jedi they’re taking trying to so he changes his name to old ben kenobi
37:42
like and that’s gonna keep him hidden from anybody he’s like uh we’re looking for obi-wan uh whether it’s old ben
37:47
kenobi it’s still kenobi is your last name [ __ ] like you’re gonna be in trouble right marvel
37:53
universe and star wars universe there’s like shang chi that changes his name to what uh sean sean
38:00
yeah yeah [ __ ] sean i was like uh i’m going as sean they’re like
38:05
you’re sure how many white crusty [ __ ] are on tatooine i’m just saying changing it from to old i mean
38:10
nobody’s not gonna get marvel’s idea of also going undercover is a baseball cap in sunglasses
38:16
so you know that’s captain america and you cover up that hair nobody knows you might be right my big thing with this is
38:23
i’m stoked for an ob1 series i will boycott the [ __ ] out of it if
38:29
vader and obi-wan meet prior to a new
38:34
because ewan mcgregor has already talked about like where there is a dueling scene between them in the series
38:40
that just makes no sense supposed to be him and hayden christensen right yeah are they like slapping each other like what’s happening here like are they
38:46
actually they’re not gonna be lightsaber dueling right is it gonna be hayden christensen’s voice as vader because like he’s vader at the end of three so
38:53
does he turn off his little vox box and he’s just like hey i hate you your your wife my kids aren’t here
39:01
like hey you said higher ground yeah but that’s right that is another thing i forgot that was hayden christian is actually
39:08
they talked about where he’s working with ewing mcgregor during for the dueling scene and stuff they’re working
39:13
together they’re training well then i mean it’s not really burst my bubble it’s more like all right [ __ ] it like i i
39:20
well it’s gonna be i’ll watch it until i actually see the scene but then
39:25
i i literally will i will shut it off but only if you video record yourself because i know there’s going to be more

42:49
there is a conversation with you had on plenty of episodes during this uh this whole [ __ ] nonsense that we do
42:55
um that there is something to be said about our toys that we love getting played with again and it
43:02
can be exciting but it’s also really like threatening also like oh no it’s like there’s a level of anxiety that
43:07
goes with it right yeah it’s like the friend that comes over that you know likes to stuff set stuff on fire
43:14
um and then you have to finish your homework well he’s in your room playing with your toys and you’re like i don’t
43:19
want him in there alone you mean my play
43:24
yeah little kid michael bay is in your room with all your action figures and you’ve got to finish your math homework
43:29
[ __ ] you know left alone with your toys you’re like [ __ ] no [ __ ] no no
43:35
transformers [ __ ] oh [ __ ] what did you do to my ninja turtles
43:43
michael bay’s wrath never gets out of the bathtub that’s how that’s how bad michael bay [ __ ] with this [ __ ] that’s true and that for those who don’t know
43:50
we haven’t actually watched the original [ __ ] turtles movie a [ __ ] shame on you but there’s nothing where ralph was
43:55
that was a coma [ __ ] that was a sad moment it was man it was very sad his shell was still one
44:00
of those most prominent splinter comes out of the flames he was like you are about children and they’re like oh god and i’m sitting there as a child being
44:07
like splitter dude i already watched that [ __ ] and like seeing splinter like basically like
44:13
[ __ ] he’s chained to a wall dude like bloodied i’m like god damn this is hardcore [ __ ] it’s hard great [ __ ] man
44:20
yeah but anyway yeah but yeah i’m really worried about so yeah star wars that’s that’s part of it
44:25
too is that when somebody takes your toys that you love there’s something to be said about like when the story ends
44:30
so when disney picked up where the story left off after jedi and they were like we’re
44:36
doing a new trilogy i’m like i’m going to give them a little bit more wiggle room on what this looks like because it’s not dealing with the [ __ ] i already
44:42
know about like yeah playing with the characters but you’re telling the wrong story so if it is less than i expect it
44:48
to be because nothing is going to meet the level of appreciation i have for the original trilogy because i grew up on that [ __ ] and i’ve watched
44:54
maybe like at least a hundred times a piece but you can still like i don’t want to ever not have the hope that it could be something to top that and
45:00
that’s what sucks is like i feel like there’s got to be creators that can and writers and and visionaries that can
45:06
make something that actually trumps that but it hurts my feelings less when it’s like a news story with those characters versus where you’re incorporating it
45:12
into the canon that i already know and that’s where it hurts with like kenobi yeah and boba fett because this is
45:18
you’re in my [ __ ] now dude yeah right like you’re in the middle of the [ __ ] that i know don’t [ __ ] with me why are
45:25
you peeing in my sandbox [ __ ] yeah i like it if they to handle it like rogue one where you have certain levels
45:32
but you are you’re not following see remember this that we told you about this before see this rogue one scrolls
45:37
introduced all these characters and you know none of them are going to [ __ ] survive because we don’t see any of them new hope you get the badass
45:44
scene you don’t have to fault you have one rule which is you got to kill all these
45:49
[ __ ] before they by the end of the movie and that’s the only guess what that’s the only one [ __ ] survive right i like that better than when you
45:56
had to go okay well we have to do this because it’s mentioned and these other kind of like we gotta do this because
46:02
it’s mentioned each other so here we go i don’t care about that [ __ ] dude someone else can kill the [ __ ] at the end someone up to two movies you
46:07
got your rogue one done right then you have your solo shoehorn true yes
46:13
[Applause] we’re going to bring in the uh the run you know
46:19
um and then he’s going to he’s going to lose the [ __ ] lando is going to lose the ship in a poker game we got we got things to work
46:25
with no [ __ ] [ __ ] you you know i never needed to ever hear was han solo speak wookie to chewbacca ever
46:33
right and somebody said you know what we’re gonna do yeah we’re gonna have that what is funny is that thor knowing
46:38
groot language i fully accepted no no problem he’s like it was an elective and i’m like done [ __ ] done yeah right
46:45
han solo [ __ ] trash child raised without an education
46:51
on a [ __ ] trash planet has no [ __ ] where with all to learn a [ __ ] second language about like furry people that
46:58
live on kashyyyk and he’s just oh [ __ ] you oh yeah
47:04
that’s your problem how about the fact that how he got his name oh no no that’s the biggest okay yeah yeah yeah wait a
47:10
minute like that’s the biggest crime hunter already covered that yeah yeah like you’re by yourself your name will
47:15
be stronger god damn it i was such a i never wanted to be able
47:21
to like get the ticket from uh what’s the schwarzenegger movie um no last action hero i’ve never wanted
47:27
that ticket more than that [ __ ] scene to just get into that film and punch
47:32
that guy in the face no i want to redo that and make it worse where like everybody’s waiting in line
47:38
and so they’re just like doing activities to make themselves like like entertained while people are waiting to
47:43
like ship out and stuff so they have a conga line and then then there’s then there’s a
47:48
limbo and han gets down so much that he’s like i saw what
47:55
you did on the on the limbo line we’re going to call you so low
48:01
i would have taken that you know almost just as bad but we got we got the castle run right
48:07
right that was like the only real i think the scenario set up was a
48:12
little bit different but it it still held true because that was that was one of the first biggest debates
48:18
with star wars was once a parsec it’s not a time it’s a distance
48:24
it was interesting how they explained that i was cool with that yeah that it was actually you need to get there in a short amount of time
48:30
there’s 30 of that movie i enjoy yeah yeah that’s that’s yeah no i don’t know you know i don’t care about like like i
48:36
said the [ __ ] train heist scene in boba fett is like i don’t know oscar worthy compared to the train heist scene we got in solo
48:43
yeah fair that’s what i’m saying 30 of solo that’s all i need to watch but
48:48
no but then you do rogue one and you you get this like stellar [ __ ] war movie that is god damn amazing it’s [ __ ]
48:55
amazing and it’s so funny because i wanted rogue one going i don’t know is this going to work
49:08
i do want the uncut [ __ ] version though that they’re apparently all that [ __ ] film got [ __ ] can and we’re
49:14
never gonna get the original version which is apparently like borderline dark hard r for what for rogue one god oh that’s
49:21
that’s what yeah well they had real shoots and they cut it to make it because it was too dark they wanted to make it more like they were like crushed
49:26
[ __ ] head and they’re both
49:35
jacket style and the dude with a giant gun is like literally up inside you guys like stormtrooper’s face and just turns
49:40
into [ __ ] soup god damn i want that right i love we get more of whitaker’s character
49:45
are you how are we coming are you telling that you tell me that there’s a version of rogue one that turns into
49:51
ran before at the end before is that what you’re telling me there’s
49:56
do you want to see them throw babies into fires i’m talking about the last 30 minutes when he has that [ __ ] what do you have
50:02
and he goes cutting the limbs off with bullets yeah right you’re saying there’s a version a star wars of that holy [ __ ]
50:09
that was such a fun beautiful disaster yes it was but no but apparently because everyone was thinking it might come out
50:15
on the on the dvd and but apparently everything got like kind of [ __ ] canned during the editing process damn that that
50:22
maybe they were lying and keeping it hyped but i want to see because you remember the trailer the original
50:27
trailer has like a shitload of scenes that aren’t in the movie now we’re used to one or two that don’t make right but
50:33
like majority of the original trailers like none of that [ __ ] was filled with the trailer separate we
50:39
gotta see where stormtroopers holding his arm walking around looking for his other arm or something like his leg god
50:45
damn it i love what got left in though is the fact that like as a star wars fan you have such a complete
50:52
disregard and disrespect for stormtroopers the clones of one of the most badass uh
50:59
bounty hunters of all time right yes and you’re like these guys are such pieces of [ __ ] that a dude that is doing what i
51:05
did with a broom handle in my backyard after watching [ __ ] ninja turtles um can beat them up yeah so badly their
51:13
armor sucks oh yeah the armor and the second half the entire star wars universe that’s not the thing that they have a problem with
51:18
they’re like no legit yeah
51:27
apparently apparently he was ad-libbed but when they kidnapped him and they put the bag over his head he goes you know i’m blind that was ad-lib that’s awesome
51:39
nice turn from star wars though because we were talking about solo initially uh a few few seconds ago has anybody seen
51:46
the still of harrison ford in the indiana jones outfit no they’re filming india where
51:52
they’re filming the new indiana jones five yeah dude that [ __ ] is like what is he like 72.
51:58
he’s not 80. dude he 80 yeah sorry 79.79 look there are a few things
52:15
it looks like hamburger in a fishnet uh it looks bad man it looks like you took
52:21
silly putty and put it like like basically yeah you’re trying to catch that in the ocean and you caught just like
52:28
eight pounds of hamburger meat
52:39
so that’s not great but but in addition to that like [ __ ] harrison ford as indiana jones it’s
52:46
at this point he he looks like one of those wrinkled dogs that just has like eight different
52:52
cheeks yeah you just really i don’t know what you do with that like well especially after
52:58
christmas ridicule like he’s he’s he’s going to ridicule somebody to the point of them
53:04
just giving him the thing like no i thought that uh my fault but now it’s been a museum
53:10
new movie is scheduled for uh july 29 really yeah that’s this year holy [ __ ]
53:18
it’s just gonna be like all the adventures take place before 4 p.m which is when it goes with that no way
53:23
but it’s going to start it’s going to start at the local hardys at 5 30. [Laughter]
53:31
let’s go to the ball that’s an hour after he waters his lawn before going into the heart well part of the
53:36
adventure is that he forgot his medication at home and now he has to get home before he gets to the mall if they
53:42
were brave they would just do it indiana jones where he’s incontinent and he’s wandering the neighborhood and the adventure is to find indiana jones
53:50
oh my god yes the search for the lost grandfather [Laughter]
54:06
you guys can’t see us we’ll post this that’s him on set this is old man jones so who’s the actual like star of the
54:13
movie because again i mean are they actually handing over the reigns to shia labeouf no no no
54:19
they’re not they got [ __ ] early on okay uh what’s your face from fleabag i think is in this movie so they’re going to
54:25
switch they’re going to gender swap the characters all right i think the handoff is it’s going to be like a female archaeologist
54:31
that uh yeah i don’t mean gender swap indiana but i mean like they’re going to gender swap that like for the next generations
54:40
[Music] she’s fantastic and i love her this is
54:46
gonna be the last one well i think honestly the last one was going to be the last one and then then
54:53
they decided to put cheyenne i hope there is no such thing as crystal skull because i hope they don’t hope they go
54:59
back to like religious artifacts and they leave aliens alone in this movie
55:05
a civil right there is no such thing as crystal skull and if this movie’s [ __ ] there’s no such thing as this movie because you end three seconds
55:12
run like riding horses into the sunset the end that’s all this is which is perfect it’s perfect
55:20
it’s him and his dad he’s writing something yeah sean cutler we’re named a dog [Laughter]
55:27
you could have done enough jobs movie where right off the gate it’s just like adult son
55:33
um and been like it’s indiana that it’s like his role is in a recliner yeah
55:39
that’s it and then you see the pass off and you’re like okay cool like his son is following his death cool in i’m in or
55:45
do this or crazy enough put in indiana and the role of
55:50
like put him in his dad’s role with last crusade and he had a younger version where you know sean connery was bumbling
55:57
around as [ __ ] indiana is like trying to save his dad he’s kind of like a hindrance i almost i
56:04
want indiana be a hindrance to his son and have that type of move that was what they were trying to do
56:10
with crystal skull it starts with mary and raven and being like i forgot to tell you that like they were twins and
56:16
then that’s the daughter like i forgot that like yeah i have a daughter
56:21
you have to you have to keep in the timeline so four was like post no but i mean they have though like four was post um
56:43
that’s the perfect like layover because also you have them arguing of no i don’t want you to follow
56:48
in my footsteps don’t you know be the the librarian archaeologist not the one i was being out there doing so
56:56
much
57:02
like ridiculous [ __ ] like this is yeah you’ve never had sean connery doing the last crusade you know like oh you mean
57:16
you mean you mean the fridge that would have broken every bone in his body yeah the whole headline fridge right yeah
57:21
that whole thing what i love about the first thing jones movie is if you take anything jones out
57:26
everything happens the same way yeah exactly like literally it’s still open yeah he has nothing to do with the
57:32
success or the uh or the failure of anything that happened that it’s just literally the nazis being
57:39
like oh we’re too big for our britches melted face is done he actually kind of helps everything about it turn out the
57:45
movie because he pulls out the medallion you know the the idol at the beginning of the movie he hands it to him like he
57:51
did all the secret [ __ ] he figures out where the map room is he figured he figures out like he does all the heavy
57:57
lifting for the nazis so yeah i think the biggest issue that we had with crystal skull and hopefully they
58:03
learned from that going into this new movie is but you know don’t let george lucas help with an indiana jones well no and tying
58:09
into george and tying into he did help with that i know that’s why the space came in yeah um
58:17
had a good point with like yes you technically you could take indy out of raiders of lost ark and it’s still
58:24
everything’s going to happen the same way but the thing that registered the lost ark did was it literally created
58:29
what we know as the modern day adventure action like borderline thriller at times movie
58:37
we’ve got potentially that bumbling idiot who is smart but his common sense doesn’t really go that far with this guy
58:44
right he’s very book smart and he kind of figures everything out as he goes along but when that movie came out i mean and i don’t know that’s one of your
58:50
favorite movies radio’s lost art you get a test like where did that’s how look how it’s set up everything that we look
58:55
for in action now but yeah the thing is the plot’s pretty basic it’s all about the action pieces well it’s basic but
59:02
was it busy when it came out think about it was it 81 i mean the whole point of the of raiders lost ark
59:09
was is that it was george lucas and spielberg being so excited about the 1930s like serials that were just very
59:15
short like hope it was all yeah so i mean here’s your hero here’s the bad guys and
59:21
all this [ __ ] happens there wasn’t a lot to it but it’s the action sequences the way they you know the tricks they pulled
59:27
that made it that people were like oh god damn this is [ __ ] i mean the intro to the [ __ ] movie when he’s
59:32
getting run down by a [ __ ] boulder dude like that’s still high [ __ ] little scenes
59:37
that they did that made the movie stand out like just the sound of every punch yeah like that fight
59:43
[ __ ] yeah the plane and every punch sounds like ending his face should be mush
59:51
but it’s little tricks like that that made that movie stand out that nobody thought hey we should make the punches sound like hardcore like
59:58
as simple as that even the off the cuff like you know like the ad-lib scenes of where he just pulls out the gun and
1:00:03
shoots the dude yeah he’s doing all this big sword dancing right [ __ ] you yeah because it’s it just well it lays
1:00:09
into like snakes oh this is snake scenes when they go find they r games like the snakes
1:00:15
but the whole thing is it’s like the best way to describe indiana jones at least with the uh with the lost ark is
1:00:20
that it was common sense adventure yeah like there was nothing no fast and furious elaborate you know
1:00:28
everything was unbelievable like if you figured this out just in time your ass was saved if not you’re dead right
1:00:33
that’s basically what it was exactly exactly like oh yeah we can fly across [ __ ] buildings show you the
1:00:38
ridiculousness of like the fact that you think about it indiana jones rides a submarine to that island you
1:00:44
know the thing that goes underwater for most of that how did he had a fight outside of a
1:00:51
[ __ ] hot air balloon dude yeah in air ensemble of doom come
1:00:57
and on this note we are at the tail end of the second half of geek some of the influence oh boy
1:01:02
it’s actually nice that the first half was really more about a nostalgia and talking about our stories from doing gui over the
1:01:10
years yeah yeah yeah and uh the second half was really what a free play has always been which is just like a free
1:01:16
reign conversation all the pop culture [ __ ] that we love so we hit star wars we had marvel we had
1:01:22
indiana jones like we hit all the all the big the big notes in our fandom and what’s and what the and what it’s doing in the
1:01:28
fandom because like as old heads as we are like you know we’re very active in what’s going on in the fandom sure yeah
1:01:34
you know i mean because i mean we were around when these phantoms pretty much came out so yeah
1:01:39
we’re all all of us with our varying ages us old men yeah and slightly younger men
1:01:45
yeah i haven’t had 40 yet so yeah well you’re the only one i know right i’m calling it but
1:01:51
and that’s part of what uh i’ve talked to people where so many of these like why the marvel movies hit us like so much more than
1:01:58
like say our kids mm-hmm and stuff because [ __ ] man we read it we’ve been there
1:02:04
since the beginning we’ve been there through dolph london punisher you know [ __ ] like that
1:02:10
we’ve the original captain america right with the rubber ears yes with the rubber
1:02:15
ears oh my god but we’ve lived through the trial and error to finally get what we have today that’s why we’ve been
1:02:22
there fundamentally yeah just like it took so long for comic book buoys to get their footing on being
1:02:29
like as good as they are now the next one uh because it’s our generation that we’re hoping and praying
1:02:36
for comic book movies and then we got an x-men in 2000 we’re like oh finally yeah
1:02:41
and the first blade movie and we’re like oh finally and even that wasn’t even close to where they ended up yeah no but
1:02:46
it was like the best i mean if you watched that 2000’s x-men movie oh it’s bad it’s [ __ ] terrible yeah yeah
1:02:53
dude the [ __ ] claws came out like holy [ __ ] and now you’re like this is [ __ ]
1:02:59
terrible are they fighting on the statue of liberty really there was a swing around the claws oh
1:03:06
that was the worst one you want to talk about cgi being way off with dimension and everything on that
1:03:12
[ __ ] i saw that movie three times in the theater because it was a [ __ ] x-men movie yeah damn right and then move
1:03:19
forward you get [ __ ] samurai spider-man again i was like [ __ ] yeah cgi was trash on that but it was a
1:03:24
[ __ ] spider-man with [ __ ] bruce campbell it was all building up to what we have now and uh we’re gonna see the
1:03:30
same thing and i i’m putting my [ __ ] like promise on this is that they’re already trying and they’re doing a bad
1:03:37
job and it’s garbage which is the same thing that happened in superhero movies uh you will see in our time when our
1:03:43
kids are like teenagers and young adults uh that you’re going to have
1:03:49
live action anime being that generation’s version of comic book movies for how much because they’re
1:03:55
already how much you’re already testing the market
1:04:11
[ __ ] with [ __ ] face from whatever the [ __ ] makes a good point [ __ ] see we’re talking [ __ ] about those early uh anime
1:04:17
into live action and we were just brought up the dolph lund and punisher the rubber ears captain america so
1:04:23
that’s dragon ball z is what our cat our our rubber ear captain america was right
1:04:30
there fantastic four yeah things that i still i still really like
1:04:36
like i enjoy these anime right like i enjoy and i enjoy
1:04:42
and i enjoyed those comics when those movies came out and they sucked ass yeah they haven’t gotten it yet just like
1:04:48
they haven’t gotten video game movies and that’s another one too they’re gonna
1:05:06
they’ve already [ __ ] the last they have been with video games and live action i mean they haven’t figured out comic books
1:05:11
either guys that’s true let’s remember that in the 90s david hasselhoff was nick fury that’s
1:05:18
true and that’s all you have to say yeah they course corrected that [ __ ] yeah why why did you do that because that was the
1:05:24
[ __ ] part i know it was a god damn thing don’t you’re like [ __ ] with the what’s the 180 of david hasselhoff sam
1:05:30
jackson cool yeah and that’s what’s saying animes will eventually course correct two goodness
1:05:37
it’s fine like they tried they also tried a live-action wicked city way back when and it looked [ __ ]
1:05:42
terrible yeah um you ever seen the manga the manga uh wicked city i’ve seen no i’m sorry i was thinking i was
1:05:49
thinking dark city for a second but yeah they did try wicked city as well that was horrible terrible that was horrible
1:05:54
oh but no i’m all for live action enemies like give me a live action and i’m talking about old school give me a live action ninja scroll i’ll watch it
1:06:01
all day give me a live action [ __ ] like a good live-action akira
1:06:06
you know that’s one of the things they they’ve been trying to develop that for like 20 years develop a live-action akira if they end
1:06:13
up doing it because they’ve had really scott attached they’ve had taika attached they’ve had a lot of big-name directors attached and you just haven’t
1:06:19
found our one then well no i got to say the wrong way might be the gateway that might be the iron man when you can do
1:06:24
akira live-action it’d be a [ __ ] blockbuster yeah then you know right right doors open but
1:06:35
and i don’t agree what you said about the directors though because you could have the great director but if he doesn’t have the right support and the
1:06:41
right way to do especially for akira to do the effects oh yeah that’s true i mean but we’ve seen we’ve seen where
1:06:47
we’ve got you know like new directors come out of the [ __ ] gate and crush a [ __ ] property because true part of
1:06:54
being a visionary is too is you have to make other people believe in you yeah absolutely you know yeah i mean it all depends i mean somebody that we talked a
1:07:00
lot of factors yeah that was a good job of adapting early comic stuff before he just started destroying it zack snyder
1:07:06
took on 300 and crushed that [ __ ] [ __ ] it took a property that nobody thought you could make it to
1:07:13
i’ll you say watchmen oh wow watchmen that that was a 15-year process of director attach
1:07:19
walk away director attached walkway yeah and zack snyder took it on and did a pretty good job about as good as you can
1:07:25
as you can do yeah without making that series i think that movie is awesome yeah i still really watch this i’m saying this is that’s they’re that’s a
1:07:31
property that nobody they didn’t think they could make it and it got better i mean the same thing with
1:07:37
sin city yeah yeah they come out and [ __ ] just blue load everywhere right yeah exactly uh speaking of blown load
1:07:43
everywhere uh for our send-off for this episode we’re gonna be doing our little segment that we like to call making a
1:07:49
drunken scene [Music]
1:08:04
[Applause] instead of uh doing a scene since we
1:08:11
were talking about all sorts of different stuff i thought it would be more fun for us to read some of the reviews
1:08:16
from morbius oh buddy
1:08:23
here we go oh and of course you of course write to rotten tomatoes on this one yeah so i’m gonna read the the
1:08:29
smallest one so i can get out of the way so steven can see the screen but um and because it mentions bird democ uh
1:08:36
i’m gonna do it as the chicken lady from kids in the hall oh [ __ ]
1:08:41
i’m sorry i’m not gonna go on down down that rabbit hole baby yes we didn’t touch on that no but the specific
1:08:47
structure and creativity of bird damn it this one’s for you
1:08:55
okay that’s you just getting poked in the ass all the time sporadic i mean where was your other hand stephen
1:09:00
[Laughter] right here hand check
1:09:06
did the mics pick that up it was on the armrest all right so uh we’ve got we’ve got a
1:09:11
few other choices here what do we got here we got uh yeah all of them are long oh boy uh
1:09:17
i i think the one after me is a pretty meaty little yeah or any of the other ones i’ll take
1:09:24
a scroll too i’ll take the drew thin and the tin that’s fine i can go with that
1:09:31
playing living vampire little goes the benefit of introducing a
1:09:38
spider-man villain that’s never been seen in live action before
1:09:44
unfortunately his performance and most of morbius as a
1:09:50
whole are layered in melodrama and cgi [ __ ]
1:09:57
oh fakery but that accent works but either way cgi
1:10:03
fakery i see it [Laughter] cj
1:10:11
uh you want to do next because you’re gonna scroll down a little bit so you guys get a little bit more i’ll just do
1:10:16
the 100 i guess i don’t yeah or they’re all they’re all they’re all like
1:10:21
they’re all bad they’re all bad um i guess i’ll just do this one here okay
1:10:27
all right this was remarkably bad and somehow
1:10:33
bored me to tears despite the insanity
1:10:38
on screen no walter i’m not talking about that the plot had more holes than swiss
1:10:46
cheese but a character’s development was non-existent
1:10:53
please keep the mcu far far away
1:10:59
from what sony is doing was that a putty is that a putty screw up a little bit
1:11:05
more for me that was awesome i was like putty slash eeyore because you sounded so depressed
1:11:10
okay simply put morbius is one of the laziest
1:11:18
shallowest most pathetic attempts at a movie blockbuster
1:11:25
in some time original score zero
1:11:32
i think that was from the comic book guy from simpsons yeah i think um close very
1:11:37
close but yes worse we we’ve been we’ve been watching a lot of malcolm in the middle
1:11:43
and malcolm’s friend in the wheelchair who’s oh stevie
1:11:48
i hated the movie yeah so much [Laughter] because it was just pauses that would
1:11:55
kill you yeah [Laughter] that was another show that was just
1:12:00
revolutionary style yeah yeah yeah oh dude the whole series is on hulu right now so we’ve been
1:12:05
kicking it back through on that and life is unfair life is unfair yes very true
1:12:10
very true on that note uh i think that’s the most that we needed to spend on morbius and just reading four reviews of
1:12:17
it and done and walking away this [ __ ] train wreck i still haven’t met anybody that’s
1:12:23
actually seen it i don’t know anybody seen it i think i’ve i think i might have one or two friends that have seen
1:12:28
it but like that’s like in a movie like that yes that’s a lot that’s that’s a
1:12:33
really sad amount of people that are right what i’m saying that’s saying that speaks volumes i meant that’s a lot that’s speaks
1:12:40
my rule i always have to watch at least once to properly [ __ ] on yeah oh no i’m definitely waiting until it’s on one
1:12:46
of the random streaming services or whatever that i already pay for so i’m technically not losing money yeah you’re
1:12:51
like i can do this i have this and watch it i have like for me it’s just like leaving my house
1:12:57
that’s the problem well that’s how much i give a [ __ ] about why that’s still way more of a step than i’m willing to take that’s what
1:13:03
says a lot like i pay for the regal pass and i’m still not willing to like leave my car and drive right there
1:13:11
the one thing i’ll find is instead of morbius maybe spend some time with something that has ruined my [ __ ]
1:13:17
life in the best way humanly possible revolutionary filmmaking that is in my top five favorite films of all time oh
1:13:24
yeah everything everywhere all at once oh yes that is so good
1:13:29
not only is it incredible and it’s hitting so many different marks of it’s it’s incredibly funny yes it’s
1:13:35
incredibly insightful yes it’s heartwarming it’s tragic yeah it deals
1:13:40
with a lot of like uh challenging things that will maybe ruin you if you come
1:13:45
from the right background or experience i i want to talk about this movie for the geek fathers like for an episode
1:13:51
because of just that whole mother-daughter dynamic stuff happening and everything
1:13:56
and not only that but it had a like i think a 30 million dollar budget and it looks every bit of a hundred thousand
1:14:02
plus a million movie right i heard it sucked i heard a lot of people hated it yeah no no no no no i don’t want to get
1:14:09
it all right i’ve seen this much excitement like yeah i heard like it’s pretty [ __ ] terrible do you plan uh because i mean it this trailer just
1:14:16
looks goddamn gorgeous i will say this just real quick is this that movie is the first because the only
1:14:23
movies that have done business so far have been already built in sequels blockbusters based on properties
1:14:29
people know in the way this movie is the first kind of word of mouth we’ve had to come out
1:14:36
since theater started reopening well like it’s the first really that yeah because everything else has been built
1:14:42
in your fast and furious your marvel properties things that you already have that are kind of independent the next
1:14:48
one would be a big toe is get out right but you still have a tr you still have
1:14:53
somebody you talking about jordan peels yeah that’s true right you’re talking about you already know did not do nearly as well as get out
1:14:59
dude right but i’m talking about that’s already still kind of a problem i’m talking about the built-in audience that
1:15:04
liked swiss army man it’s not exactly the best it is this is the movie they’re talking about
1:15:09
this is your first word of mouth to come out since things reopened yeah and very much uh
1:15:17
the reason why this movie is getting so much conversation online is word of mouth like it’s not they’re big advertising you see some advertisements
1:15:23
but they got a low advertising budget yeah it’s literally everybody talking about how i found out about because i
1:15:29
followed jamie on uh instagram and so she was posting tons of stuff about filming and so on and so forth so
1:15:35
like i’ve known it me personally like if you follow certain actors that are involved with the properties you you get
1:15:41
more of that build up you can tell how much fun she was having in her roles oh did you wat there’s a whole instagram
1:15:46
thing about the warm up she made the whole cast do uh beforehand it was like this weird stretching and like breathing with
1:15:52
pelvic thrusts and [ __ ] it’s hilarious wow it was like oh and that was [ __ ] hilarious
1:15:59
like part of it like sticking her gut out and just trying to look as miserable and weird as possible and
1:16:05
you’re like this is this is lori like yeah right well no this is the hot ass wife stripping in
1:16:11
[ __ ] true lies baby damn right and she’s like still [ __ ] stunning you’re like oh yeah that’s acting
1:16:18
well jamie lee curtis michelle young right mm-hmm and then um the the dad is
1:16:24
uh [ __ ] data and short round and short yeah you know [ __ ] is he just didn’t he just do this night show about
1:16:31
it i don’t know or he’s coming on the tonight show no he went on a few and like his whole conversation is that after he did those roles he was like oh
1:16:38
he was a kid so he’s like yeah it’s normal that you know a kid gets these roles and he realizes oh wait there’s no
1:16:43
asians in movies like i lucked out the two roles of asian kid i got yeah
1:16:50
yeah yeah the two biggest roles in the 80s movie yeah yeah yeah and then check and then it was the dude that
1:16:55
played long duck dong in
1:17:01
every uh he says data and goonies all right yeah yeah but after that he’s like
1:17:06
he was trying to act and there weren’t roles for him so we went into the background of filmmaking where he was involved yeah i knew he was still
1:17:12
involved with like hollywood stuff but not like you said behind the scenes but yeah he’s over the moon about being involved
1:17:17
in this um he he was like yeah the best best movie to come back to oh right yeah [ __ ] yeah dude and he was he was raving
1:17:24
about shangshi and and how there’s a lot more asian representation in american cinema and he’s like so over the [ __ ]
1:17:30
moon about it he’s a big avid supporter of that and that’s really [ __ ] cool yeah that’s great
1:17:36
and there’s nothing about this movie that suggests it needs to be anything better or different about its
1:17:41
representation it’s it’s exactly what it’s supposed to be and [ __ ] it’s good uh yeah yeah
1:17:47
and it does have low pain in it too i i don’t know i’m horrible about about the names but i just i mean the the
1:17:54
elderly asian grandfather every film that ever existed that [ __ ] is
1:17:59
low paying and will always be lopan from big trouble in little china [ __ ] yes i mean that’s totally what
1:18:04
tarantino went for and [ __ ] kill bill part two yeah straight located exactly exactly yeah
1:18:10

amazon.com and t public parental discretion is advised
0:19
but definitely we are just our schedules are so busy it’s hard to be a [ __ ] up as much as we use not as much gaming as we
0:25
used to no yeah we could actually thank the partly to the
0:32
uh growth of the family and other shows too absolutely because generally
0:38
as show runners outside of just the main flagship you know we if we if we do the flagship then we do
0:43
another episode that’s at least two nights we’re drinking you know what i mean like it’s like you know
0:49
you know and then having a cold one while you’re editing helps ease the pain sometimes too so you kind of see this
0:55
going i just recorded like the other night i don’t need to go too hard yeah exactly there’s just like mine sort of
1:00
like yeah i’m gonna leave i’m a little low-key this one after seven years
1:06
seven years and also with all the other shows that takes a little bit of the pressure off of this is the only time i get to be on
1:13
gui it’s like you have your own shows you have other shows that you can get yeah so it’s not as much of a oh i only
1:19
get to do this once every like four months let me [ __ ] park
1:24
once every couple months and then also every week well and you even brought up the point
1:29
where like the first 80 episodes now and this is back in the day when we were recording every week every week so 80
1:36
episodes hours six people yeah dude we had it easy he had ahead of that
1:42
[ __ ] oh yeah true that’s why it took me 16 [ __ ] hours ever i don’t know how
1:48
that’s you know i mean it ended up being well worth it because of the the network that we created together and like all
1:54
the episodes that we’ve done all the cool [ __ ] we’ve been able to do and also it did give me the opportunity to get my
2:00
day job into the podcast industry so it’s true there’s true a lot of good that came from it but i also look back
2:05
at every week 16 hours of editing and it still sounded like garbage when i was
2:10
done and it was your garden but it was goddamn garbage god damn it and obviously garbage that’s like you know
2:16
hardcore criticism because if you go back and listen they don’t dude i’ve heard some current podcasts that sound way [ __ ] worse oh first and that’s
2:23
not [ __ ] on anybody creating i’m just saying like if we’re really going to go down nitty-gritty with the qual you know
2:32
that’s just facts anybody can listen to that and see a difference i’m not just cheating on it i still hear shows where it sounds like you’re talking down a
2:38
hallway for somebody you know quality sounds let’s get at least one of the like maybe two things that we actually
2:44
have formatted on this episode is the introduction here before we know a free play if unfamiliar free play
2:49
true can you is a time for us to just be able to kind of wax poetic and talk about whatever
2:55
whatever we want to there is no subject batter at hand so we are just all tan gentle as [ __ ] and we do this a couple
3:01
times a year usually uh the beginning of the year and uh also for our anniversary
3:07
which yeah if you are a long time listener knows april 20th 4 20 man
3:13
unintentional but very appropriate um
3:23
but i remember when we recorded it and it was like two weeks before and i was like i gotta get [ __ ] editing that’s perfect
3:30
right i mean the only closer on the nose date you could have had was you know may 4th
3:35
i mean that’s the only other day right right may 4th yes so uh
3:42
nonsense for seven years whereas some people
3:49
uh have a doctorate in seven years of their life uh that they have applied themselves to school
3:56
and learning and uh becoming a doctor i have
4:01
uh recording the people talking about their penises yeah right yeah and star wars and star wars we together have uh
4:08
filled i don’t know how many buckets of dick jokes um in the seven years i think we’re at dumpsters now
4:15
oh see i was even going to say tubs but dumpsters is totally a little tough number one [Laughter]
4:23
[Music] apple just this once let us use that as
4:28
a title please can you put like an asterisk in there something yeah something that would be
4:34
open so this is our this is our seven year
4:40
anniversary free play episode of geek some of the influence so be prepared it’s gonna get weird man and it’s gonna
4:46

4:52
days on this episode geeks on the influence welcome
5:06

5:14
[Music]
5:20
don’t forget about the fart jokes they will never farts are still funny first will always be secondary though i mean
5:25

5:30
uh in the studio from senator mark warner yep yeah you do
5:36
celebrating our achievements as a podcast our art form yeah our art form yes
5:42
yes proper terms please we just talk about jerking each other off dry like under
5:47
the table try jacks yes
5:58
that’s right that’s right i’m aware i know my niche affair
6:10
the senator hadn’t ever listened to a single second of the show no no he probably got one of his like
6:16
[ __ ] what are their handwritings doing today to be like hey this show won like a thing go check him out and he was
6:22
like okay and he listened to it and was like i’m not going to say a goddamn thing
6:28
it was probably another one actually listen to it it was probably an unpaid intern even that was just like oh i know who these
6:34
guys are [Music] and just totally pass it off
6:40
oh [ __ ] the uh the panel for this uh seven year anniversary episode is all show runners
6:46
all people that have been here since uh pretty close at the beginning at least yeah um if not the beginning and uh half
6:52
their own shows have helped build this out to being one tire fire to many many
6:58
sm all so tire fighters a dumping yard of tire fires it’s
7:03
it’s a whole we’re like the tire fire from the simpsons the big old mountain firefighters say we’re just like killing the ozone
7:10
with the amount of tire fires we have yes yeah yeah we’re at least killing people’s patients or brain cells sense
7:17
of wonderment sense of wonder it’s just hope for the future
7:24
but uh the panel that we’re looking at hey i resemble that remark on my show you resemble the geek father that’s
7:30
right uh mr scotty p is here hey hey guys we’re in i’m some gui uh i did the
7:36
typical dad thing and was just like guy yeah right you know i’m the dad and the

8:04
you there you go where are your dad jokes i haven’t bothered any children don’t yet are you are you any daddy are above what my
8:12
expectations should be as a man with no children that i don’t know are you requesting dad jokes from him they will
8:19
come out no matter what don’t no question i don’t know what you got we have to build the show okay yeah god i
8:26
don’t think we should okay we should not build the show on the back of my puns like that
8:31
well that’s where we got our start seven years ago so why not finish this [ __ ] oh that is true so that was the running gag
8:38
for years what the [ __ ] happened dude right come on man everyone’s crushing it but you i just stopped giving a [ __ ] really
8:45
i mean it’s not it’s not a deep mystery he he totally made that turn of you
8:50
[ __ ] do it yeah pretty much that’s that’s what happened and we do the the father’s like i’m the only non-father
8:57
sitting here at the stable right now that’s true so there were enough fathers that were regular had their own shows
9:02
and everything that it was just like they’re the ones that need to carry on my legacy is that
9:08
no honestly dear your puns your dad jokes come honestly as being fathers mine came from like severe pikmi energy
9:15
and as i got older as i got older i stopped wanting to be picked i was like man wasn’t it great
9:21
when i was the last one picked a kickball like that was great i might even sit i might even sit out [ __ ] yeah sit i made it i made it uneven so like
9:29
they just let me say i’ll be a [ __ ] binge warmer picking flowers making like just
9:35
chasing butterflies don’t be a [ __ ] hippie don’t be a [ __ ] hippie but
9:41
another father though not on geek fathers yeah he’s on every other show besides this one uh but he used to be on
9:47

9:52
the pitcher and the catcher and the batter in the first baseman and the outfielder uh that is for gui we’ve got [ __ ] you hunter here what’s up [ __ ]

from uh from the mouse madness in beautiful disasters yes yes yes so and again key fathers and a few other
10:04
ones yeah yeah you helped me start the the co-hosting aspect of geek father i would
10:10
like to show up sometimes just [ __ ] with you and try to divert the subject that you told me specifically we were supposed to stay on true just as that is
10:16
shitty giggles but no yeah i i tried to lay down the law and then it was like well [ __ ] already there wasn’t so
10:22
much there was one time where kylie decided before he came in the room we’re gonna just [ __ ] with you and try to
10:27
divert it to a different direction oh i know how much you squirm and i believe that episode the next week you had a
10:32
disclaimer before the episode probably yeah probably
10:38
well i mean it’s a different realm man that’s right it’s a different realm
10:43
so um finally my uh partner in crime here my uh
10:49
the the butter to my bread that’s right he butters you like the
10:55
white bread think about it yeah yeah you wonder
11:04
my partner on the uh running the network and on the show mr lowdown brown macgyver is here what’s going on
11:10
everybody we just uh we’re in the process of making we’re rebooting jungle fever uh
11:16
look out for that in the glistening summer of 2023. it will be uh
11:21
available at no cinemas but but but we did get a sponsorship
11:27
from a said cocoa butter uh manufacturer so that will be heavily displayed in the movie so i like how i
11:35
like cocoa butter and it burns not for me and i don’t know if it was intentional
11:41
but i totally saw the pelvic thrust when you were like in cocoa butter oh yeah but yeah yeah that’s probably not on
11:46
video so [Laughter] my uh accents are unnoted remember when
11:51
we did that for like right also that was like [ __ ] four years
11:57
ago yeah when we were not as i feel like we were a lot more uh people would like watch us more now now for
12:04
sure you know right it was like a webcam like a low quality webcam that was
12:10
taped to the wall so the other one was a tablet or something no that was to start with a
12:16
tablet that i literally screwed that i ripped with like yarn okay okay
12:22
i forgot like samsung galaxy tablet that i i hung
12:28
by with yarn from the closet door right uh so that it would kind of get what at
12:35
one point you had both though because you had the you had two angles for the video that’s when i went to webcams yeah i was just both like okay
12:41
yeah we’re both on camera and it’s like yeah the the fuzzy distant people on the video right
12:47
are available and the man who missed his calling as a cinematographer
12:53
and in this room as we speak now there is not only is it well lit but there’s like
12:58
tons of like lighting stuff around because i’m starting to do like video stuff yes because jungle fever yeah what
13:04
the [ __ ] duh i just said that what do you what do you think it’s gonna be low lit yeah
13:10
well if i’m in it it should be yeah but they’ll just see me they’ll just see like me and then just like like white
13:16
flashes here and there you just see yeah like just a vague uh alabaster skin
13:22
grunting noise well the the fact that you also described it as glistening so it’s a glistening aloe vera skin yeah
13:29
you’re a cocoa butter i’m just just flop sweat
13:36
[Laughter]
13:41
check out geoidpodcast.com for all the shows we mentioned all the other shows on the network this show rate review
13:47
subscribe all that cool stuff and uh also this will be coming out in the
13:52
month of april uh i hope uh that’s the plan and uh for april uh
13:59
reviews number four good uh is the hashtag and that’s a podcaster.com a place that was dumb enough to hire me is
14:07
uh doing a thing where they’re actually contributing uh 25 cents for every review that they get on the entire platform for the month of april
14:14
for um a non-profit that feeds refugees leaving ukraine so it’s um
14:21
more uh important than the actual review is the fact that it’s actually that review is gonna help feed
14:27
people that really need the help absolutely yeah and if this over top of [ __ ] can just you know give to a needy
14:33
cause uh there you go yeah right it makes it worth it yeah makes it all worth it hearing long conversations about dry hand jobs
14:40
helps feed children it’s going to a good cause yeah that’s a good cause the oxymorons are the worst yeah
14:46
well i mean think about back on episode 50 was it ever this could lead to a review to feed
14:53
starving children about the show in the beginning that any
14:58
of us thought was going to do anything being for a good cause in any way i feel like there’s nothing about the
15:04
show well all right i’ll change it i was going to say i feel like there’s never been like a a main thing about about the show that
15:10
was like geared towards bettering humanity but our motto is level up never punched down yeah so yeah i’ll take that
15:16
back we’ll talk trash we’ll have fun with it we’ll tease each other but everybody’s allowed in the room like it
15:23
doesn’t matter where you come from or even the level of geek them that you have right true it’s supposed to be a conversation celebrating fandom so
15:30
there’s no gatekeeping [ __ ] here i mean i feel like when it started to actually get kind of
15:35
serious when i mean we hit into covid and like we started donating to help
15:41
people out you know and actually bringing stuff up like before that’s like you know kind of you know whatever we get from amazon
15:47
helps with equipment with that and there’s that period of time where it’s like shit’s [ __ ] real like
15:52
oh yeah um if you help like we’re gonna help people that like are kind of [ __ ] right now in this
15:58
situation yeah like so we actually were pushing for a good cause yeah like for real yeah
16:04
it’s true yeah and yeah we’ve helped out with a couple fundraisers here and there like over the
16:09
years but it’s all also one of those things that i don’t know if it’s just a richmond thing or just our group of friends but
16:15
or maybe just that punk rock ethos i’m gonna say it’s also a richmond thing yeah it’s original thing where it’s like it fits in the same like it’s a
16:23
combination long enough this used to be a sketchy as [ __ ] dirty city and it’s kind of cute
16:30
it’s starting to just turn around a little bit a little bit i was like five shootings last week right like down your
16:36
street right not in your like i was right outside your neighborhood not like next door but no but like in my neighborhood
16:43
yeah six blocks that way closer to mcv excuse exactly yeah well i’m just saying yeah it’s not entirely non-sketchy now
16:50
but it’s it’s that decided to be less sketchy than it used to be oh yeah we’re not throwing the cap in anything i think it’s a lot of stuff not sketchy it’s
16:56
gotten that’s good it’s got the e off of it yeah there is when i say that in description that is a difference yeah
17:03
you know if i say sketch versus sketchy it’s like absolutely sketchy i’m going to get the [ __ ] out of here sketchy just don’t park your car in
17:10
certain yeah exactly exactly not anywhere in the area sketchy just normally means that it’s a town that has
17:16
a lot of like uh lower income people living in it and that was definitely true to richmond there was a
17:21
whole vice article that was written back in like 2005 or something that’s [ __ ] hilarious you could find it online where
17:27
it’s like richmond is the town where like you don’t have to try to do anything and you’re still going to like
17:32
flourish here because like nobody cares you can just work like a 8 hour like cooking job and then just on
17:39
your days off get a cheap 12 pack of pbr and go to the river and just like drink
17:45
all day and people are like that sounds like an amazing day and you’re like it really was and that’s just your life that would be stupid that really sounds
17:51
like a lot of my years in the 20 my 20s no i’m gonna say like i’ve definitely lived that holy [ __ ]
17:57
yeah yeah but they’re like yeah you don’t have to make a million bucks to live in richmond you can just like barely get by but you know it’s just
18:03
that kind of culture where you can find stuff to do that’s not expensive and kind of do it now let me throw it out
18:09
there too because at one point just to show well mine and hunter’s age because i i’m not gonna be the only one
18:14
thrown under the bus about talking about agents damn the baby again on this episode [ __ ] you yeah right the old [ __ ] for that but
18:21
i remember back when we were around even our early 20s still i
18:27
i say decent decent two-bedroom apartment was still like four or five hundred bucks
18:32
depending on where where you were and you’re you’re also talking about the fifth city days oh very much so the the heyday of the
18:39
punk rock hardcore richmond yeah richmond used to be called fist city because it was just the at one point it
18:45
was like you had dc about 10 years before that and like it seemed to like just you know [ __ ] rolls
18:51
downhill come come down to richmond literally but
18:56
well we just dumped like how many gallons in the river last year yeah we don’t talk about it about that i said
19:02
we lost count you’re talking about the wrong numbers there man all right no but i mean
19:08
about rough yeah we’re wealthy ten years after that richmond really you know late like 99 into the y2k era like really
19:14
during the 80s we had a lot of stuff coming down from dc like bandwise and the way it was and richmond was even
19:20
probably poorer then too you know very much so but the later 90s
19:26
when it was basically going into the next revival of whatever the next level of punk rock the
19:32
music scene and stuff like that was when hunter and i were basically like or you know later teenagers and stuff like that
19:38
it was cheap as [ __ ] to live in i mean and you would you would have a place with like three or four roommates and
19:44
everybody was paying maybe a hundred to two hundred bucks a month for rent i mean i remember you changed i remember
19:49
when there was a certain fan apartments where the uh walk-in closet um was changed from a walk-in closet to another
19:56
bedroom if if need be absolutely like you can basically fit a mattress and however you store the clothes and that
20:02
one small dresser and just like uh and they would work out you know when they could go to their room or not so yeah
20:09
but there was a time where there i mean the cost of living in richmond has increased dramatically oh very much so
20:15
um over the years and there was a point where it was very affordable for me to live my own yeah i went right yeah and that was
20:21
the first studio room that we had mm-hmm yep so moved out and i took over his room as the studio room for gui and it
20:28
was [ __ ] great and i’m like this isn’t really that hard like i can i can not make it a million bucks but i can
20:33
afford to live here well do this and do things like you still went out of town and did stuff and then all of a sudden the cost of living increased pretty
20:40
dramatically where at that point i’m like this is great i’m never having a roommate again i’ll live with like a partner that’s great but like a roommate
20:46
never doing that again and then a couple years later found myself looking for a place to live went [ __ ] i need to really
20:53
wait we’ll see that was around because you um even that house uh still was one of those little
20:59
niches where it was owned by someone personally it wasn’t through a management company
21:04
and stuff like that that’s where at one point jennifer and i got lucky where even the house where before we
21:10
bought you know actually grew up and actually bought a house um the the rent that we paid there was fine
21:17
we still had a usually had a roommate for most of the time we lived there just to make it easier could we have
21:23
gotten by by ourselves sure but it was just like even then you’re just like [ __ ] it’s going up
21:28
which was part of the reason why we were like let’s just buy a house and even if we have to do the maintenance ourself
21:33
it’s almost cheaper yeah yeah you know and that’s how bad you know a lot of stuff has gotten i mean yeah buying a
21:41
house now no oh it won’t be cheaper no this was almost a decade ago that we bought the house so you know you bought
21:47
it the right time exactly exactly i will say one of the advantages with your roommate moving out is is that i believe
21:53
the setup prior to having that room was the living room um
21:58
mike’s kind of next to certain easy chairs and other couches yeah and once you had that room
22:05
it did kind of seem a little more as a actual setup instead of all right now sit in
22:11
this chair but don’t lean back too far the mic will be here and hold it yeah make sure you had a table and mike’s
22:17
that was god those ricky kind of stages right it started to feel kind of more of a it
22:23
got more formal like okay this is an actual thing yeah this isn’t just like every week i pull out all these cords
22:30
and microphones sit on this side of the couch and you’re on the other side like there was actually a person with windows facing a busy road
22:37
right we have to pause whenever we hear an ambulance come by do you remember that oh i always was against that because i
22:43
thought it added an aesthetic to it it’s like this is how [ __ ] good we are right now in the [ __ ] living room
22:49
mic stands because they’re like yeah it’s ambience right i’m just
23:00
of course but that that’s when the the shows actually or the well there’s still is just the show got so formal when we
23:07
moved into the other room and i’ll never forget when you first put the shield the sound shields up over the mics okay they
23:12
were all hours yeah the flowers they were just all like kind of peeking over at each other like flowers man jesus
23:19
not in the know either not hearing comments about it from that’s like a million years ago about this after this releases because
23:25
[ __ ] man oh we gotta have reference for sure yeah so there’s these like 200 um
23:31
things that you can buy that attached to your microphones that um that has like the egg foam and on the inside it’s
23:36
basically like mini walls yeah like a mini like singers use yeah vocals especially if you have a room that you
23:42
can’t do any kind of sound proofing to it exactly uh get more of that non-echoey sound um
23:49
for cheaper than it would cost to like treat an entire room so i was like i can do that
23:54
and then i was like you know what i can use instead of like buying the 200 things i can just get
24:00
lamp shades and
24:08
and then they already have the thing that i can screw into the base of the the phone and the thing is i made it work
24:13
it did and it did help but it was like so incredibly bulky and weird and hard to
24:19
deal with and see each other over everybody who came in that wasn’t like straight up just gui
24:26
look would like what the [ __ ] oh yeah sorry i talk into the lampshade
24:33
i will say that reinforce the hand raising yeah because that was the only way you could tell who was trying to say
24:38
over here you were like what and you see a hand go up you’re like i think that’s steven
24:44
over there oh my god our shortest uh panelists were not having it oh no
24:51
which you are among as well i mean i’m short but like we definitely have much shorter than me oh absolutely
24:57
before that happened wasn’t our last like living room episode the batman episode we did remember when you we had
25:03
that couple on remember that it was i thought it was like this dude his girlfriend andreas
25:08
yeah no andre i thought that was his girlfriend that came on she wasn’t on the episode she was kind of just chilling oh she you know i think she
25:14
came here yeah no she wasn’t on the episode okay yeah yeah yeah yeah i think that was like one of the last
25:19
two or three before moving out right around the living room so that was a fun episode though the last main episode i
25:25
remember doing in the living room which was one that only my wife has been on two was uh the kevin smith episode of the
25:32
two-parter i did for kevin smith um with his q a when he was in town at that time that was a good q a oh that
25:38
was such a killer q a yeah he was like loved it he was basically like no [ __ ] do it yes
25:45
and then hobbit was like have you heard of guar bar why don’t you hang out at guar bar because wasn’t that when you were trying
25:51
to get the interview with him i didn’t get a mic so it was definitely not that was a dude that was uh what’s his face
25:56
well someone was doing it for you was it ballsack that actually was doing it okay it was up in the balcony
26:03
it was somebody from guar or yeah it was right no no it wasn’t dirks it was um oh beefcake sorry beefcake yeah oh okay
26:10
okay all right there goes my richmond card sorry i was gonna say all right i knew i i knew i wasn’t wrong i’m like that’s not balls like it’s beefcake
26:16
beefcake yeah sorry but yeah i remember just remember that when i heard the voice and i was like that’s a different car
26:31
but then later on we actually did get a shout out in a way from mr smith which i still oh i think i opened my child to
26:38
carlton for making that happen that’s on my google drive i will never lose it it’s just not it’s very every once in a while i just listen to it and watch it
26:46
because it’s just fun yeah yep seriously that was awesome yeah mad props to carlton for it was the most sure so yes
26:52
love you for that the audio on the front of this episode i don’t give a [ __ ] right yeah that was a big highlight
26:58
for gui i mean that carlton like that was seriously that was [ __ ] amazing and it was like just it was the most kevin smith
27:04
way kevin smith could do that right because just by adding the i lot he lied at the end i’m like no dude that’s
27:10
[ __ ] brilliant because no matter what we talk about we’re definitely not friends unfortunately and i say that seriously
27:16
we’re not friends with kevin smith no no we’re not related to anything he does with smodco vosku or anything
27:22
but his diy ethos is like legendary right in the
27:28
independent universe i mean you know exactly with talk about podcasting he was very
27:34
early on in the build-up of podcasts i mean like if you when you think when you talk about kevin smith i mean like
27:40
obviously people jump director movies but the next step he did was podcast
27:45
podcast and he did it when it was nothing like you had whatever
27:50
it is now yeah no like two years ago was a tenth of what it is yeah like yeah just saying
27:55
so he kind of jumped on there and built up what this industry is and it was basically him and scott mosher yeah basically getting on there
28:02
going well we’re not making a movie right now so let’s sit around and i’m going to smoke a joint and yeah let’s talk about what i remember getting an
28:08
ipod and like starting to check out some of the you know what podcast they had and going oh [ __ ]
28:13
kevin smith and it was very early in the spot right yeah absolutely checking that out checking out marc maron checking out
28:20
douglas movies things like that these early ones that before now there’s a
28:25
[ __ ] ton of podcasts and kevin smith’s one of the forefathers of it because it goes into uh not only the way kevin
28:31
smith started making with making movies but what attracted a lot of us
28:36
to be where we are now too is where it was such a independent i’m not having to pay for [ __ ] you can do it on your own
28:44
you can do it with friends you don’t have to have some weird like sponsorship
28:49
backer to do anything i mean these days you have to have it to grow to a certain extent
28:55
but we’ve always made the joke that we’ll keep doing this even when the wives and partners unplug the mics and we’ll still
29:01
be talking [ __ ] to each other oh yeah with us you know it also i mean in part
29:07
of it it’s the uncensored like you know kevin smith everything everything
29:14
everything he’s done but before we started the podcast i mean like you know it was just this uncensored i mean obviously but that was
29:20
the feeling with a line that was that was appealing when you listen to it yeah it was like oh you’re listening to radio except they’re like
29:26
oh [ __ ] you eat a [ __ ] and you’re like yeah and you don’t you at the time you can turn on the radio
29:32
and listen to anybody say eat a [ __ ] [ __ ] but you could put on a podcast and they’re going to tell each other and it was like exactly yeah you were you you
29:38
you’re used to that in like r-rated or unrated films right especially if you know with kevin smith films right yeah
29:44
but i mean give me was it clerks randall just lists off how many [ __ ] important videos you know but that’s like yeah yeah once you hear that come
29:51
across just your airwaves well it’s totally different than watching it in an article there was already an appeal
29:56
because i had already started watching the evenings with kevin smith which is just his q and a’s yeah he released them out on dvds so those came out prior to
30:04
his podcast but then you’re like oh also if you like that here’s a podcast him
30:09
doing the same thing just shooting [ __ ] with scott moser oh yeah except you’re not having to [ __ ] pay for it it’s
30:14
just there yep yeah dude i found the video oh i’m gonna play the audio real quick for everybody
30:22
hey man it’s me kevin smith this is me wishing a happy fifth birthday to the good folks of geeks under the influence
30:28
man i record a lot of podcasts myself but when i’m not doing that i listen to geeks under the influence he lied
30:36
all the smirk dude i know yes yes that was two years ago yep uh we got a little over two years
30:43
ago two years ago it was pretty covered yeah it was right but yeah that was like that last year before all the [ __ ] no
30:49
it’s like right now it was right right before early 2020. it was i think february of uh of that year was it oh
30:55
because that happened and then we had galaxy con which is always marked as the weekend before the dark like before the
31:01
dark times the weekend before tom hanks let’s test the positive right just say that
31:07
literally a minute tom hanks test deposit for covid is when [ __ ] shut the [ __ ] down as
31:14
soon as they said tom hanks oh oh whoa whoa whoa
31:25
[Laughter] let’s be perfectly honest i mean what scandals do you know for tom hanks so if
31:31
something serious like that happens you’re like what whoa hold on yeah i’m just saying thanks yeah uh i remember
31:37
being at the theater on a monday when they now said and by [ __ ] thursday we were told we’re shutting the [ __ ] down
31:43
all right like it was that quick from monday news to thursday we’re not gonna
31:50
have the theater open for a little while that like that kind of [ __ ] yeah amy bogart and i had been dating for like
31:56
eight months when everything shut down yeah um which actually as far as timing goes i
32:03
feel for a lot of new relationships that they have been dating for like ah and then covet [ __ ] happen
32:09
do you hang on to that or do you like hang out together do you hang out separately like all the challenges of
32:16
that we had enough time together before then that we’re like we yeah we we like yeah we’re good
32:22
we’re right i like each other yeah we also had friends though like um stephen who uh actually started dating
32:28
during some of the coveted quarantine time and he now lives with his lady mm-hmm
32:34
you know so it’s it was a weird time what about what about those relationships that are
32:39
just hanging by a thread right before it should happen and you go dude i’m i’m
32:44
gonna be moving out on the 15th and on the 12th like everybody please stay in your home so you go uh-huh oh no oh yeah
32:52
all right that’s gonna suck for like maybe it’s just for like a couple weeks that’s what they said it comes with that movie actually where it was like
32:58
all of you you’re all pieces of [ __ ] and then you realize oh the door’s oh it’s a timed ex entry door right yeah
33:05
how are you oh whoa whoa but you’re like i just you’re in something but you’re in that situation where you’re like just
33:11
two weeks and they said two weeks and then oh [ __ ] should be under control oh another month okay fine and then you’re
33:17
six months later you’re like [ __ ] me like because that [ __ ] the updates weren’t positive like okay
33:24
um so remember how we said two weeks and you could possibly know and just kept adding and adding so
33:31
in that situation yeah how many how many times were people signed on the dotted line and submitted into the lawyers and
33:36
was like i’m you know like you said like i’m moving out and then they’re like no you can’t [ __ ] do [ __ ] we didn’t i
33:42
would say we did look out in a situation where we were able to adapt using zoom and [ __ ] like that too very much so huge
33:48
that was definitely trial and error for sure kyle
33:55
yeah the nature of podcasting is has always
34:02
been something that had to be adaptive i mean that’s just true
34:07
the idea that you’re you’re farming like uh entertainment from anybody that is
34:13
willing to put a microphone in front of them and post it onto right the aggregators the podcast aggregators um
34:19
the environment necessitates evolution it requires people to learn
34:25
how to adapt and how to change like um improve the quality of their shows
34:30
get better equipment learn how to put some nuance on to the the tags that
34:35
you put on to your your uh episodes before you send it out post and all that yeah sometimes maybe just
34:41
help you know show a fellow showrunner how to properly use a microphone that says she should already know
34:47
that they’ve had for a year okay but oh my god um hey person i’ll just come over
34:52
to say it [ __ ] kyle kyle don’t no you don’t talk in that part of the mic you’ve had that mic for a year dude
34:58
i still say before we record geek fathers these days i still sit there and go don’t suck to mike’s dick when we’re
35:04
doing soundcheck [ __ ] but i do remember a certain other show that there were 10 episodes
35:10
recorded before they realized they were recording on the laptop oh
35:17
one of my favorite moments is the utter realization that we had wasted our time
35:23
sucking the microphones [ __ ] just to realize that the laptop was recording us yes that was a
35:29
amazing terrible amazing realization’s face
35:34
was blind like oh no yeah that like that was funny come
35:40
back from this and it was a simple gesture that you did you said hold on and you just tap three
35:47
times and we realized holy [ __ ] there’s no tapping showing up on the
35:53
[ __ ] laptop and that’s what i think roots the first five minutes of that episode is him just
35:59
apologizing for the fro the prior 10 episodes i remember we just can’t get to the sound just as i
36:06
remember hearing that yeah for some reason we’re trying to get this to sound right and it’s just not working yeah you’re absolutely right yes
36:12
everybody in the early days of discovery madness came along way later so uh we
36:18
just learned everyone else is [ __ ] up early days of well when it was geek father when i’m
36:24
sitting there i’m doing something like hobbit check check hobbit check it
36:29
when we started gui um i mean talking about like from the most oppressively
36:35
bad starting points it’s like okay cool we’re gonna do a two-hour show once a week six people
36:41
all drunk one room mic [ __ ] joke yeah right that sounds like
36:47
a tournament like i’ve posted that in like uh facebook groups on facebook and [ __ ] where it’s just podcasters talking
36:54
and i’ve they’re like what would you never do again i’m like six panelists
36:59
two hours all drunk and the people responding it’s all the
37:05
laugh things like jesus christ no i’m not jo i’m not joke no no no go back and listen
37:11
go get the zip file with the first 42 episodes i was about to i was about to say how many episodes did this if i’ll have before it was 41
37:17
41 well 40 one is like lost and forgotten one is lost 40 episodes
37:23
waiters robot dong is that in the zip file no episode one the first one that is in the zip file so 41 episodes 42 is the first
37:30
one 42 hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy is the first episode actually posted like 15 or 16 we’re like we’re gonna go
37:36
ahead and take that first episode off i remember when i started my well i’ll
37:43
say like again because i know we talked about every anniversary doctor who was my first episode that was still like six months after it
37:50
happened that was still the joke of yeah we got to get rid of that vader dong [ __ ] yeah man [ __ ] no no uh but it was
37:57
there it was a funny episode well they’re like the first 41 if you haven’t caught that in
38:03
previous episodes is that we were using an old board we the audio was not great
38:10
no uh dude are you still drinking pumpkin beer i had found the back of the fridge yes
38:16
they have a shelf life bro that is way past oh i checked it oh god i got two weeks oh that’s disgusting wow i’m sorry
38:23
that must have been like the last batch that came out of whatever pumpkin bottle pumpkin beer oh i got [ __ ] to be late
38:28
middle of you remember that was that i i didn’t get it till december this was shipped for my sister oh that’s yeah
38:34
yeah but it’s april yeah and that’s back in the fridge yeah
38:40
oh pumpkin beer that said yeah i mean i don’t yeah seriously i disgusted facebook at him like trooper yeah
38:47
dude do it done but with those early episodes the the reason why they’re not on it it’s 42
38:52
is the first episode that you see on our stream is because uh they are bad um they are not
38:59
the like later parts of the 30s plus are listenable they’re not very good quality but they are you can listen to them you
39:05
can understand what we’re saying and stuff um but the last thing you want is for somebody to be turned on to a show oh
39:12
you got to listen to show and then they check out an early episode and they’re like oh wow this sounds like a bunch of raccoons banging on trash
39:18
yeah isn’t it hilarious
39:23
like in the background who actually whenever they are suggested or come across one uh a show that they
39:31
want to listen to starts at the beginning actually a lot of people i do not no i don’t i’ve i’ve
39:36
done it some will check out current episodes and then if they like that then right yeah right so you really think
39:43
about that current episode yeah but then you see the transition that they’ve actually
39:48
put work and effort into progressing yep like i have i have done that maybe not all the way back to the first but like oh with the first year you know what i
39:55
mean and like oh wow i’m gonna go back and listen to new ones i like your [ __ ] this sounds like it also depends on that
40:01
it depends on the show as well because sometimes you know if you listen to more recent stuff they have certain ongoing
40:06
gags or jokes that definitely would not fly back in some of the earlier episodes and stuff like that
40:12
so it’s it’s all it all depends on the show and who’s doing it it’s funny though that when i look at places where it has like
40:19
an aggregation of like how many episodes i’ve been on for stuff and like like podcaster you have a creator profile
40:24
there and it says how many episodes that i’m either an executive producer on or the other day and stuff and it’s like
40:31
it’s like 800 something and i’m shocked it’s not a thousand honestly
40:36
well yeah but i also have to remember to add 41 to that because it’s not on the stream yeah
40:42
841 thank you very much you’re right um but it’s at this point that i think we have broken for gui alone
40:50
um on the number of hours uh we are past a month where it takes more than a month
40:56
to listen to non-stop for one month if you listen to from just the streaming ones so it’s more
41:02
than that if you count in the first 41 um it takes more than a month to listen to all the audio there you go it’s
41:08
almost 24 7. 24 7. yeah so start downloading now and when you have to hide in the bunker during the apocalypse
41:14
you have at least a month of entertaining you are yeah there you go and then like when the fallout just
41:20
drops and then they we somehow meet they’ll be like savior they just like recognize our voice
41:26
they’re like right oh they’re like you’re the all father is that where we do the classic scene of
41:32
like walking up over the hill and we’re all just like an apocalyptic mad max gear yeah and they’re like the saviors
41:38
they’ll make us laugh again [Laughter] and he’s like shut the [ __ ] up
41:52
you guys were [ __ ] drinking and i wanted to know
41:57
how did the beer taste what i wanted to know you said here you go
42:02
we will join you and now we will not die
42:08
here we go number one number one that joke number one that’s right the church of
42:13
gui [ __ ] nightmare why is that not been a shirt yet hobbit right i mean i guess
42:19
for the anniversary why not let’s make it to church and i will totally pay to for you to rip off scientology
42:26
for that oh my god
42:40
that’s all they spend their money on but anyway on that um let’s take a break uh when we come back again just more
42:45
[ __ ] nonsense with some what we’re drinking
42:50
we will be back in just a minute but before we continue on with our seven year anniversary free play of geeks
42:57
under the influence we’re going to be getting into our sponsors a little bit amazon.com has been with us for a long
43:02
time sometimes it’s just necessary that you’ve got to order stuff online because life gets so busy it’s hard to be able
43:09
to run out and get stuff hit multiple stores to get the products that you need for your day-to-day
43:15
and so if you are already using amazon.com why not go through our link at guipodcast.com go to the links
43:20
section click on amazon that will send you to the amazon site and everything you purchase after you get to that site we
43:27
get credit for so some of the money that you’re spending there will go to us instead of amazon so it helps us pay for
43:34
storage fees for new equipment whatever we need that is
43:39
involved with this podcast another way to help us out is through t public we have over 40 designs available
43:46
nrt public store from all the different podcasts on the network inside jokes from the different
43:52
shows just funny designs fun mashups all sorts of cool stuff that you can check out at goypodcast.com
43:59
store click on the t public link and it will send you directly to our store where you can get
44:04
t-shirts buttons stickers baby onesies mugs cups all sorts of stuff with our
44:10
logos and designs all over it they have sales all the time so if it’s not a sale when you get there wait a couple days
44:16
check again and there will most likely be a sale again and make sure to share those links as
44:22
well if you really like one of our designs one of the most popular ones is our tucci gang t-shirt
44:27
share that on social media that is a great way to help us out speaking of helping us out the only reason that
44:32
we’ve been around for seven years is because of you because of our listeners and there aren’t words that properly express
44:39
our appreciation for the amount of support and love that we’ve gotten over the years i wanted to make sure that you
44:45
know as our listeners are the most important part of this podcast you are the most important member
44:51
of this little gaggle of weirdos that we’ve cultivated over the years so thank you
44:57
and we appreciate it and back to our show we’re back for uh the last little bit of
45:04
this first part of geeks under the influence uh we are splitting this into two episodes so instead of a guy nights
45:11
you’re getting a full second episode of uh debaucherous uh gui i i i farted a
45:19
little bit when you came in with that man it was like wow that was very sharp that was very
45:24
morning we’re back who cares i don’t come into the meeting it’s on
45:30
sunday morning god damn it yes i’m calling k-rock and
45:36
gonna sell that [ __ ] to them so hard the meaty mitts i like it you just need that
45:42
noise [Laughter]
45:47
uh anyway uh yeah we’re instead of uh doing this as like the midway uh we ran
45:52
late anyway we are cutting this after the what we’re drinking which is amazingly anticlimactic
46:00
getting into the uh the meat of the second half on a totally different episode that you will get next
46:05
week so uh for what we’re drinking uh there are no shares because [ __ ] it we’re going old-school days for
46:10
anniversary yeah but we do have some uh points to
46:16
bring up uh first off one mentioned earlier was that hunter’s drinking pumpkin beer in april that’s right
46:22
that’s gotta taste like that tastes like [ __ ] fresh i that’s your opinion i like it so yeah
46:28
but it hasn’t expired yes it’s also only an inspire in my stomach it’s also on tap’s opinion so i’m yeah okay but on
46:35
the same end also is that as we’re talking about his pumpkin beer being expired literally in the stairwell
46:41
of the studio is a pumpkin that has been there since the second week of october that it’s
46:47
still pristine as [ __ ] there’s no mold on it after that it’s been there that’s crazy the whole
46:53
time we had two the second one uh left us last month
47:01
it was toiled off to that uh that uh off the mortal coil into pumpkin heaven
47:07
last night a great big pumpkin patch in the sky yeah i wouldn’t move jeez i wouldn’t move that pumpkin because the
47:13
bottom might completely be right out it looks really nice smell that you would [ __ ] smell that like done the
47:19
detective work of like my head down near the bottom looking at it and sniffing and like no this is can i get a picture
47:25
of that like a little video like well hey baby it smells well we’ll message amy that one to be like let us
47:31
know when he checks the pumpkin again she’ll be at the top of the stairs like he he records you just see that random
47:37
flash and you look it up going should you use your phone holder against you you won’t even see here just be sure to be like holding it like this around
47:42
the door the doorway how’s the pumpkin honey yeah [Laughter]
47:48
like you said it was our video equipment yeah well then we got but no that’d be good because then we’d get her reaction
47:54
as you say oh i think it’s done honey no yeah right yeah that’d be awesome but
47:59
how the [ __ ] is that thing not i don’t know man like yeah the fact that it is mid to late april and i still have a
48:06
pumpkin from mid-october that is pristine can i make it a year i would say i don’t know
48:12
that stairwell is going to get warm yeah the the first really hot day is when
48:17
that goes and looks like the face of the the nazi and
48:23
i was gonna say it’s just gonna melt and like glue to get you know oh that’s gonna smell so bad yeah
48:30
i bet it’s insides are already like rotted it’s just the shell refuses to go yeah it’s like just black somehow the outer skin got
48:36
hot like super hard for whatever reason and what are you doing that pumpkin that is between me and the pumpkin
48:44
if you coat it it acts like wax exactly like a lacquer yeah all right let me check your diet bro
48:51
it’s a lot of fiber i don’t know if fiber will do that no i don’t think it
48:56
does i don’t know what what you think is fiber but
49:02
just eat glue sticks like popsicles oh yummy all right
49:09
the next one i’ll point out is that scotty p thematically along with his uh gui t-shirt that he’s wearing is also
49:14
is his gui hat oh my god dude all you’re missing is the [ __ ] foam
49:20
hand yeah you just you are that should be next on our merch no it shouldn’t be you are like one step away from being
49:25
garth and wayne’s world was like i don’t know i just don’t understand
49:40
[Laughter] you’re being thematic uh yeah in a way
49:45
yeah uh with i made one fuck-up statement
49:50
oh man for like six years old yes remember i said we need to bring back
49:55
that [ __ ] koozie design and the creator was on the last last episode i was like man because that’s
50:02
