From Flamethrowers to Vengeance: Inside the World of John Wick, Ballerina

Dreadnaut, Torin, Vallion Season 2 Episode 8

email us at knighfallsvale@gmail.com

Stepping gracefully yet lethally into the world of elite assassins, "Ballerina" expands the John Wick universe with a fresh protagonist whose vengeance burns as fiercely as her flamethrower. Ana de Armas commands the screen as a former ballet student turned deadly killer, seeking retribution against those who destroyed her family and past life.

The trademark John Wick action choreography takes center stage with innovative weapon play that transforms ordinary objects into instruments of destruction. Plates shatter against enemies' skulls, ice picks find lethal precision, and in one breathtaking sequence, a pair of ice skates becomes improvised nunchucks. The film's centerpiece – a full-fledged flamethrower battle in the streets – delivers the kind of audacious spectacle fans have come to expect from this franchise while carving out its own visual identity.

Norman Reedus brings surprising emotional depth as a father figure with ties to our protagonist's mysterious past, while Keanu Reeves makes strategic appearances that remind us why "It's John Wick" remains the ultimate warning in this universe of killers. The Continental Hotel continues its role as neutral ground (though that rule seems increasingly flexible), and Ian McShane returns as the ever-enigmatic Winston, keeper of the assassins' code.

What distinguishes "Ballerina" is how it balances the franchise's established mythology with a personal revenge tale, expanding our understanding of the High Table and its cult-like influence while maintaining focus on a character-driven journey. For newcomers, it's an accessible entry point to this stylized world of professional killers; for devoted fans, it's a worthy addition that honors what came before while pirouetting into exciting new territory. Catch this deadly dance before the body count rises even higher.

Speaker 1:

Hello, all welcome to the Nightfallsville Podcast. John Wick Ballerina Edition From the world of John Wick. It's a long-ass title and I still don't understand why Everyone else has been calling him Ballerina. Yeah, but why did you have to have From the world of John Wick, olin Ballerina? Hold on Ballerina, ugh. Oh, because everything's long-winded in the John Wick world. What's the acronym for this? There's an acronym. Well, I'm going to make it From the world of John Wick.

Speaker 1:

So F-T-W O J-W. F-t-w-j-w-b Fun, fun. No, you wouldn't even remember that at all. So that one's taking a high with sinners at this point? For you, yeah, it is. I don't know yet We'll see. Okay, snap out of it. Clark Fatoj will be. It's looking bad. Fatoj will be F-T-W-O-J-W-E Fatojwubi, f-t-w-o-j-w-b. Fuswaba, fuswaba, I'll just take the swaba. I swear you just made a Slavic word out of it. Fuswaba, ugh, ugh, it's too fucking quiet.

Speaker 1:

Are we in a hiding scene in a movie? No, I'm not. Is the shot about to go off around the corner? No, I'm not. On the roof, one of us would fall most likely me, most likely me. Most likely me.

Speaker 1:

Right now, I can't even stand up straight for long enough. Bad part, so you wouldn't be doing any of those ballerina turns. I couldn't do one. When I wish to go back, ugh, do I have to break a plate over your head? Good back. Ugh, do I have to break a plate over your head? Bring you back. No, we'd have to break it over yours. I don't. I don't You'd have to break it over mine just to feel better. What, oh see, when there's conflict, I automatically go gone. I'm in my fucking oh, it's like dude, it's like whatever. Talk, christ, if you ain't talking, it's fucking. We're just doing banter ourselves. It doesn't feel right. You're the one that actually somehow gets hyped. Yeah, because I love life and I'm happy. Normally I get fucking torn down all the fucking time. I try, okay, okay. Oh, the Anadol Ramas Yay, I liked her, I did. There are very few people that don't. She did very well Without a. She carried a movie very well Without a. She carried a movie pretty well.

Speaker 1:

A lot of people are concerned if a John Wick movie is going to be a John Wick movie without he was in it. He was in it. Can I just say I love the world building of all these movies? I know a lot of people don't, because they want more mystery and they're kind of explaining maybe a little too much. I understand the gripe. It's like maybe you're delving into it. It gives you a full understanding of their characters, even the villains. For fuck's sakes. The movie started out with you learning that they were going to take the daughter away from the dad just because of the cult Cult. And then we go further into the movie and we get fucking Norma Reedus defending his daughter.

Speaker 1:

I forgot his name in the movie. It wasn't Frank. I remember that. Something Pine, david, that Something Pine, something Pine, david, pine, david, pine. So is that normal? I still forgot it. I'm assuming Chris Pine is his brother. Let's see.

Speaker 1:

Hmm, nah, I was thinking of Trying to think of talking points. It's hard. I mean, you can say how amazing the action is. It's top tier, it's John Wick action. Well, you almost got your cheese grater moment in this. I got plates Back and forth. I'll take plates. It wasn't just plates. You got an ice pick. You got a skate. The skate says nunchucks. I swear to God, that's what she was trying to do. I got two flamethrowers A fucking full he didn't flamethrowers, full-on flamethrower battle. Each person had a flamethrower.

Speaker 1:

How did I describe this movie? Slow, fl, flamethrowers, slow and then on fire. I described it that way too. Funny thing, it didn't happen. It started off a little slow, they were building everything and then it was just non-stop crack cocaine action, like fucking boy kills Non-stop, two J-Months right next to each other.

Speaker 1:

The fact that she pretty much cleared out of her and Wick pretty much cleared out of the whole town, that was good. That was that was good. That was good. Yeah, it did kind of feel like nobody was left to kill him. Yeah, I'm like there's nobody fucking. Yeah, I'm like who's even alive in this town anymore? Where are the kids? Yeah, where are the kids? Except for the kids that were hidden. But even they got target practice.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I saw that at the school. Are you fucking kidding me? I mean, that was the reference we all needed. Say, oh, the entire pound's coming again, uh-huh, no, my first reference was the kid shooting her. You know the signal. And then the mom came back. Oh, did we see the mom die? Yes, was she the one at the very end of the restaurant? She was. She was the one that got the knife thrown in her head after the woman broke out of the freezer. Yeah, to get shot. I was waiting for a frying pan to be used too. I was like god, there's so many options here, put that on there, but I'm probably gonna be the use of grenades. I feel like that. Boom yeah, the whole fucking gun shop.

Speaker 1:

It sounded like you kind of had a problem with the logic of it. I questioned the one where she dove over the table and there was literally nothing protecting her from that one. I questioned that one a little bit, but that wasn't my continuity error. I like when they blew to one guy and it opened a hole you definitely have to explain that one to us, because even he was wondering and it blew open a hole and oh, I have a door now. I did love the door kill where she closed the door and he's just poof and she's oh, I have a way to go and did it again, closed the door, poof, yep, poof, walked through the hole she made from the other continuity error. That should be the last one. Where could? So our continuity error? The sniper that was giving out all the details when she climbed into Norman Reedus? Oh, no, wrong one. The guy that was spectating her and giving all the details while she climbed into Redis's room, and also the first guy she killed in the restaurant where we got all the plates breaking and everything else.

Speaker 1:

He died in John Wick 1. What? That was the same actor that was the lieutenant to Vigo in John Wick 1. Ha, it was the same actorigo in John Wick 1. Huh, it was the same actor. He got shot in the face. Same actor, but he was playing a different character. Yes, well, he's not the same as one of the others. We never got the guy's name.

Speaker 1:

Maybe they were twins, that happens, bull Gait. Oh, fucking, come on. Why is one in the cult and one isn't Cult? Ballerina wasn't in the cult. Yeah, because she escaped as a kid. The twins ain't escaping at the same time. They literally hunted down her dad for taking her away.

Speaker 1:

Maybe this isn't the first time it's happened. Third time's a charm. Third time was Norman Reedus. Yeah, he got the kid back. Yeah, but he didn't. It wasn't resolved before.

Speaker 1:

Ballerina had to kill everyone. Yeah, and he was alive at the end, even though I kind of figured he might be alive, because he didn't really get a triumphant death scene. I was like that's all you're going to do, kill Ramirez. Never mind, he's not dead there, he is. No, he was just bleeding out on the concrete. I'm surprised they left him alive, considering he had that bounty on him. Yeah, well, they didn't tell you where he was. No, that they didn't tell you where he was. No. No, of course he was still into the what do they call it? The concierge Continental. So maybe they just took care of him.

Speaker 1:

You're talking about an ignored rule no violence on Continental grounds. It's the most ignored rule. Bam bam, bam, bam, bam bam. See why I didn't. Now I have a problem with what you said. I didn't kill anybody on continental grounds, technically, neither did the two that got shot. They tried to kill people, but they never killed anyone either. Yeah, technically. Yeah, this is the Lucius Gucius rule system. Who's the head of the Continentals? I don't know who the head of the Continentals are. Each one is owned by a different person.

Speaker 1:

I actually have my favorite character. I don't know why I like that guy Ian McShane. Yeah, because it's Ian McShane, you know, the first role that really got me into him and made me look more into the stuff he plays American Gods I never watched it when he played Odin, mr Wednesday. I thought Mr Wednesday was One Piece. Don't talk about One Piece references in that movie, because then he's got a big one for you. He almost jumped out his seat when he seen the leg on fire Live action. Tony Tony Chopper is a. I like it.

Speaker 1:

The only thing people are bitching about is they didn't have her dub voice. The dub voice, come back and voice. But she's busy, man, that's fine. Netflix is supposed to be its own thing. I wondered it myself and then I was like Dean said that. I was like, oh, she's busy. Well, no, that makes sense. I know everything she's doing because she's the last one, so I gotta know every con she's at, so I can just there's a calendar. Let me get her to debate that. Debate the calendar. Well, we said we might debate what movies we're gonna do.

Speaker 1:

Podcasts oh yeah, I wish our fans would actually talk to us and tell us Nobody wants to talk to us. We barely want to talk to each other. Yeah, that makes sense. Hey, you started all the podcasts that way. Other yeah, that makes sense. Hey, you started off the podcast that way. You yelled at me I like talking. Goddamn it, I'm the one who likes talking the most. Shit, we know, I don't think it's a bad thing, shit. No, I just got you talking because of it. We needed you talking. We need Dean. Talk, talk, talk, talk.

Speaker 1:

Well, it's going to be some rambling action, rambling about John Wick and bang, bang, bang, bang, boom, boom, boom and a flamethrower. I haven't decided which gift I want to use, because I'm going to use a gift for this one. As far as our placement picture, john Wick has a pot. Am I going to use the ballerina glass, or am I going to use the ballerina glass, or am I going to use the flamethrower, one where she's just standing there with the flamethrower ready, or am I going to use her entrance into that Club 11? That's aura. That's what I'm just calling Iceberg Lounge. That was an aura scene.

Speaker 1:

Well, she didn't kill nobody really, there's just rubber bullets. And she even though she stabbed a living piss out of a guy with the ice pick. I guess that makes sense. I looked up famous flamethrower scenes and guess what number one is John Wick? No, because he's got one too. No, what the thing? Oh, yeah, yeah, that makes sense. How can we kill this thing, lady Thor? Yeah, there is a lot of A lot of World War II. Not surprised Sons Get the flamethrower. Oh, because there was one in Glorious Bastard.

Speaker 1:

I like how they kept John Wick as the guy, though, because she really couldn't do much against him in her little spat. I think that was my favorite line out of the movie. It's John Wick. It's suicide mission. It's just one man. He immediately dies. It's John Wick. You have any idea how many man this guy has killed? I'm gonna tell you, though, dies John Wick. You have any idea how many man's got his shit on? I'm gonna tell you, though. I'm gonna tell you, though, that whole fucking, that whole ending, like that whole Half the fucking movie I can't really say just that part, but that whole town fight as a whole was fucking great. That's up there with moments.

Speaker 1:

I still think the fucking stairs from 4 was my favorite. They still put a stair scene in the movie. Both me and Peter pointed towards the screen. We all 3 did hey stairs, rolling down the stairs. Jake can make her roll down as many as he made John Wick roll down. That son of a bitch went up them bitches like 3 times Back down Up again.

Speaker 1:

I haven't gone back to rewatch for lately. I gotta rewatch. If we were gonna do the top ten characters, I was gonna rewatch them all last night. I could've. I was gonna rewatch them all last night. But then he said no, no, I watched Death of a Unicorn. It's near the bottom of my, it's at the tear break, but it's oddly fun. I fucking pissed at myself.

Speaker 1:

The son in that movie. I didn't expect him to be the full-on villain you weren't expecting. No, not like that when he just gets high and he's like alright, no, no, no, this is what we're gonna do. I'm a fucking genius right now. Will Poulter, I said I recommend it. If you watch it on YouTube, watch the damn movie.

Speaker 1:

I thought me and Jay were gonna watch it once and Jay's like, yeah, I just turned it on. I'm sorry, I was bored and I put something on last night. Sorry, but did you under? I told you, I think me and you talked about about it being dark, but when they go out hunting for the one that they caught, I didn't fucking understand that it's wounded. Why don't you just go find it during the day? If you only need his dead body, you fucking can't see him in the dark. Obviously, yeah, because they don't have white fur. Oh, that confused the shit out of me. Oh, so when they're murderous they have black fur, but when they're good and want to join you, they have white fur. Oh man, which?

Speaker 1:

In my mythology sense, those are two different types of mares Unicorn type One is the murderous type, that's the black type. Why is that? Shouldn't be a thing. Yep, fuck you. Mythology. You said it out loud too. Now we're gonna get. It's not my fault. Mythology in history is fucked up, by the way, mr Huh. Mythological creatures yeah, you okay with your. Kikimora, yeah, that's Slavic mythology.

Speaker 1:

I think he loved the entirety of her building up to it. You could have just stuck that, as I think he loves her. Yeah, I was actually starting to like the blonde. Get the stuff, get the stuff. Uh, tatiana, no, that wasn't her name, was it? Yeah, it was Tatiana, I think it was Tatiana.

Speaker 1:

Holy shit, critical Role celebrates 10 years and teased. Future animations Will debut second animated series soon in the form of Mighty. Nein, you're just trying to dig at him. Yep, oh, damn it. No, I'm looking at him.

Speaker 1:

I was looking at what Ballerina is going to make opening week. I was looking at box office. It's going to do fine. So it's Saturday. What has it made in three days? Anywhere from $25 billion. It could make upwards of $75 billion, they say. And it's only the first weekend, so it's going to make its original budget back in a weekend, so damn near. So it's good. Well, it's going to make its estimated budget, but it only makes half of that back. So it's still, and that's only domestic. I didn't see a whole lot of advertising for the movie, so no, but it's still got to make almost $180 million, just to break. Sur, almost $180 million, just to break. It's surprising.

Speaker 1:

That's one of the most talked about subjects on our podcast. It's all right, this movie ain't this much. Is it actually going to make its budget back because of advertising and shit? Then there's movies that are flop. Not everything can be a Wes Anderson film. Then there's movies like fucking, what was it? Terrifier 3. Is that the Phoenician scheme or no? That wasn't the last one. No, wes Anderson does those weird ones where it doesn't matter how much money the movie makes because he's got his own private investor. Oh yeah, different thing I was going to say, because Wes Anderson movies aren't actually that bad, they just. But they have minuscule budgets so they can be privately financed and shot and it doesn't matter if it makes money or not. It's Wes Anderson, stephen King, of movies you want to talk.

Speaker 1:

I was going to say because I mentioned Terrifier 3. That's going to be for a while now my freaking definition of freaking having a small budget and just fucking eating because that fucker only had a budget. Two million budget is the estimation. Two million dollar budget, it made 90 million dollars. Shit, that's just almost making pure money. That movie just made and they got one more coming. One more. The fourth one's gonna be the last one. It was confirmed that it's gonna be Art's story, art's backstory. So I'm like, oh, we're getting it. So I make it the last one, or it is the last one. It's concluding the story. So the director of Terrifier really wants to, has said he really wants to work on a Friday, the 13th movie, but I don't know if that'll ever happen because of the rights to that movie. So I would absolutely fucking love it because it's about time he gets something a bit more gory and imaginative.

Speaker 1:

That's your low-budget movie that made bank. Here's a low-budget movie that would have made bank if it got an international release. The Raid, oh yeah, that was shot for $1.1 million. It got $10 million in budget and only got released in one country. You gotta look, though. Fucking that's hurt because especially all the book, but this, this. That's. It's been.

Speaker 1:

China's had issues with American movies for the longest time, so it's not even really modern shit. Aren't they having issues with Superman right now? No, them, them fucking Chinese movies can make more than Christ. That China market is ridiculous for movies. I don't know why they'd have an issue with Superman. They usually have issues with American representation. He's not really. They never released the American Dream. Look at Well, it's a good example. James Gunn is making him a bit more American as far as that goes. Look at Spider-Man. No Way Home.

Speaker 1:

The only reason that didn't get a China release is because Statue of Liberty was in it. That's what it just edited that out. No, you can't edit that out. It was the whole thing, statue of Liberty. That scene would have looked so funny. They could have made it something else. They're just flying in the air and shit. Oh, come on, they already did it in the fucking. Who's he fighting? Who's he fighting? Oh, we knew. Yeah, that's small characters from a distance, not the entire background setting. It's also in the shot. I'm talking making the Statue of Liberty something else. Yeah, which would have increased their CGI budget, and it already was. It has full-on CGI characters in the movie.

Speaker 1:

I just sit there and think if that would have that made one over 1.9 billion, almost $2 billion, no Way Home. And it didn't have China, if it had China, jesus Christ, that was wow. That would have been. It's already like seventh all time, but it would have been top two or three shit, wow. Still the highest earning Spider-Man movie? Oh, by a long shot. The second one is no way um Far From Home, with 1.1 billion.

Speaker 1:

No Spider-Man movie has really failed. I mean, the biggest one was Amazing Spider-Man 2, but that still made over $700 million. But that had a pretty lofty budget, so that one they just about broke even or made only a little bit. Those Spider-Man movies, they gotta make the most piss-poor poop for them to fail. Lofty budget, lofty dreams yeah, we're gonna give you a Sinister Six. Yeah well, sony's on break now with their ship. We'll try again at some point. It's Sony they always do. Do we have anything else about the Ballerina or did we just like? I don't know? I'm trying to think of something, but we've Spider-Man's currently sitting at number eight All time.

Speaker 1:

It's behind Infinity War, force Awakens, niza, which just came out, titanic, avatar, way of Water, endgame and Avatar 1. Yeah, I knew it was 7 or 8 somewhere in there. You know what's behind it inside out. 2, what's that? Like 1.6 something? Yeah, almost 1.7, exactly, mhm. And, like I said, that, spider-man did that without a fucking China. Oh my god. That's why people, you can have issues with that movie, with some of its plot issues, but that's why people hold that movie in such high regard.

Speaker 1:

That movie was a phenomenon. Justin, for inflation, what's the number one movie all the time? Gone with the Wind, that is insured into my brain. With inflation, it would have made $4.3 billion.

Speaker 1:

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. I think he's grandma or grandpa. That movie lives in my head because of you. I don't give a damn. That's St Pete's Grandma or Grandpa. That movie lives in my head because of you, I don't give a damn. Star Wars was horrible. You want to know how? Hey, you know that scene I just mentioned. Frankly, scarlett, I don't give a damn. That made theaters go. Oh, because that was profanity back then. Profanity that made it. And now we got fucking full-on bitches getting sawed in half on screen. God, at least, where it's just sex scenes for no reason. Watch me. Oof, oof, oof. You summoning the dogs. There's no Oof. It's really a surprise.

Speaker 1:

They also have high-scoring franchises and film series. To no surprise, mcu is number one. I think Spider-Man is number three when you have as many fucking movies as you do. Spider-man is number two by itself. Yep, spider-man. Harry Potter's in there Somewhere. Bond is in there. Star Wars is three Yep, star Wars is the one I was missing. Bond is in there. Wizarding World is four Yep, pied Potter's in there. James Bond is five.

Speaker 1:

Batman's in there somewhere, but he's fallen because he ain't had a gigantic movie in a while. Because Batman Avengers is rated as six, as a separate entity, just by itself, just Avengers movies. X-men is seven. X-men is 7. X-men's about Batman Damn. Yeah, fast and the Furious is 8. Where's John Wick ending up in there now?

Speaker 1:

The DC Extended Universe is 9. Batman is 10. Oh, batman fell. Batman used to be in Jurassic Park is 11. Yeah, middle Earth 12. Despicable Me 13. Yeah, that's, I'm not surprised. 13. Transformers 14. Avatar 15. Mission Impossible is only 16. Fires of the Caribbean is 17. Shrek is 18. Twilight 19. Lion King 20. That is some interesting. Lion King 20. That is interesting. It is so fucked up. Where is Transformers, like 11, 12, somewhere in there.

Speaker 1:

I think you said Jay should be like oh Christ, here he goes. But four movies Michael Bay, I didn't see if they counted the animated one. You can completely call them movies garbage and not like them, because a lot of the old Transformers fans hate them fucking movies with a burning passion. But it's like Michael Bay kind of saved your franchise man. Jay agrees with me on that, though he's like no, I agree with you, I'm not one of them old ones, apparently.

Speaker 1:

He was on the short list of directors for Henry Cavill's next movie, oh boy For Superman, when they were still talking about doing the not-known Superman, michael Bay doing Superman. Oh boy, superman's movie had enough explosions. No building is safe in that movie. Boom, boom. We're going to make him shove Zod through five different buildings.

Speaker 1:

What would you do as his villain In another, in Henry Cavill's movie, in Michael Bay Henry Cavill movie? Yeah, you already. I mean at that point you've already done Zod, lex and Doomsday and their iterations. So who are you going to do? Who would have been his villain? Brainiac Bizarro. I think they're saving Brainiac, for you had to do Brainiac, you would have had to.

Speaker 1:

No Metallo Parasite, parasite. Yes, I would love to see that one. Lobo would have been Michael Bay's Parasite. Yes, I would love to see that one. Lobo would have been Michael Bay's. He loves putting comedy in there. I would take Lobo, but funny thing, I'd rather have Lobo versus Supergirl. You're not getting your fancy Lobo. I love that Lobo, I'm getting the whole Lobo. He might have that grip, though. He's just Momoa-atic, he's I-atic. He might have that drip, though, because you know what Momoa likes to do.

Speaker 1:

Every one of his last movies has just been him practicing for it. Exactly. I think it did start with Fast and Furious. Was it you that told me he's showing people, set photos or something of him as Lobo? He's like oh no, I'm not supposed to do that. Yeah, I'll show you that. I'm sorry. That was when he was doing media tour for Minecraft. I can't show you that Sorry. He's like the new Tom Holland. Jack Black asked him. I started thinking they got Tom Holland locked in a basement. He'd have told us the whole movie at four already for Spider-Man 4, and they got him locked up somewhere.

Speaker 1:

I don't know what that thing's gonna. You're ad-libbing the entire fucking movie and, whatever happens, robert Downey Jr is directing it. Oh God, oh, my God. No, the Russos are still directing it. Rej is just up on screen ad-libbing something he's like hold on, hold on. I like what you did there. But let's add this oh, they've apparently. I did see that for Christopher Nolan's Odyssey. They've been filming for two months and he said he's only halfway done yet. I've been waiting on that. It was always supposed to come out next year. That was never coming out this year, but the fact that he's already.

Speaker 1:

This movie is going to be long. It's called the fucking Odyssey. It better be long. That's one of my anticipators, because the cast is great. I was expecting maybe a two or three parter. It might be a one and a two. At the current rate it's going because that's just the type of story the Odyssey is. It might be a one and a two at the current rate it's going. This is the one Because that's just the type of story the Odyssey is. And, chip, I have these two really nice gold-gilded books at home the Odyssey and Iliad. I read them every once in a while. They're good books, good stuff, good stuff. So I'm excited for that movie.

Speaker 1:

We're really bad talking about movies we go see now, aren't we? I kept trying to lead back in. There's really not much. There's not much to talk about. I'm going to praise it. I love it. Out of the five, it's competing for number three. Yeah, because four is phenomenal. Four is probably my favorite. I really like three. I really like three too. 4 is probably my favorite. I really like 3. I really like 3 too, which is kind of funny because this one's based off of banking off of 3. Yep, and again, none of them are bad. Putting this one in between the movies that it's supposed to take part of, no, after, it's currently competing for After.

Speaker 1:

Doesn't Donnie Yen's character have a spinoff in the making too? I think they confirmed it. I would fucking love that. All I know is that the Continental TV show they're just pretending doesn't exist. Yeah, what the hell would they even call his character? Who, donnie Yen's? What was his character called? He didn't have a fancy name, he had a name Japanese. Just call him Oni From the world of John Wick. Oni. I'd watch it. I'd watch it too. Yeah, you would, considering they had enough tattoos of him in this movie Kane, the big red machine. C-a-i-n-e. He was Kane, that's right. So C-A-I-N-E. He was Kane. So from the world of John Wick Kane. That doesn't feel right, just like it would From the world of John Wick.

Speaker 1:

Now I know why they called this one Ballerina Because you wouldn't have called it Her codename Kikimora. I would have called it Kikimora. That would have worked. That would have worked. That would have worked Everybody had. It would have been funny because everyone knows Baba Yaga Kikimora. You would have been able to get a look at it. So you're saying Kane doesn't have one of them names. They called him Kane the entire movie.

Speaker 1:

Even Skarsgård said who's your standing Kane, kane. Even Skarsgård said who's your standing Kane, kane. I have no workaround for that. There's no fancy title for that. It's just gonna be Kane. I did like that.

Speaker 1:

I forgot Reedus was in it because I think you've seen him in the trailer. That is something they should have delved into more is everybody getting their own boogeyman code name? That's something that would have been fun. Like I said, I like the world holding, but I don't think we're going to get more of that until we get a new character. We have the male boogeyman. We have the female boogeyman. Keanu said he hasn't signed up for it yet. He hasn't. I read that. They confirmed that in Rick returning. They've been talking about it, but Keanu said when he was doing the media tour that he hadn't signed on yet.

Speaker 1:

The end's character, kane what nationality or group is he a part of? I don't know if they ever completely established that he was just a regular guy, right, yeah, okay, then that doesn't work. I was going to say maybe they would have given him a Japanese boogeyman name. He sold his eyesight to work under him so he wouldn't go after his daughter. Yeah, I wonder where they go with 5, though they already said that the high table's done. Yeah, they'd have to go somewhere else. Well see, I wonder what they do, though, because there's a part of me that thinks they'd put Ballerina in 5 with him at least for maybe a little bit, and they connect them. He's got no friends now. Yeah, I'm a hugger. He's got no friends now, yeah, so I think that would work. I think that would be. I'm just thinking of where John Wick would go now.

Speaker 1:

It's actually at the high table now. God, god, what do you do with that? You gotta formulate some sort of Unfortunately. It's not our job. You gotta formulate some sort of Fortunately, it's not our job. You gotta formulate some sort of story in there. Somehow, high Table's the one that controlled everything, right, yep? So who's vying for that power? But they said they're done with High Table. They said they won't go back to it. That's done. That doesn't mean somebody's not vying for that power, yeah, but that feels like something that Kane or she would have to and, to be honest, I kind of I think the high table stuff's played itself out. So I don't think I think I agree with their shot. I don't want to see that anymore. But I want to see.

Speaker 1:

We don't know who put the bounty on Eve. Yeah, we don't know if it's the one she just wiped out or if it was her family. It was her sister. She's dead. We thought she was dead at the beginning of the movie. She tanked that grenade. Really good man, she survived that. I'm surprised Eve's the one who got thrown into a fucking pillar and basically breaking her back, yet her sister's the one who dies, right, yeah, I mean, it's in the upper tier. Like I said, it is going to be a very interesting best of the year movie list. It's going to be very interesting. That's going to be something. You know, I know what it is.

Speaker 1:

Why we can't really talk about this movie as much is because it's one of those movies where we watched it and we were I'm not going to use the word flabbergasted, but we were just in awe for most of it. So we can't really think of anything. We know it, we remember it, but when we want to talk about it, what the fuck can? I can say I was, because I was. I'm surprised you didn't try to jump out your fucking chair. No, I was pretty controlling those people. If it was just you guys, I probably would jump around and fucking. It almost was. Yeah. Then he got more people in there and I thought, hey, there's some people in here. Both movies I've seen this week did a cut of showing the aftermath of a fight we didn't get to see. I would have loved to have seen the club You're talking about when she's pulling her knives out of everybody.

Speaker 1:

You saw the aftermath of her killing most of them, but you didn't get to see any of it. Mission Impossible did the same thing. Yeah, mission Impossible has done that before. Yeah, it's just funny. Two in the same hotel, oh, yeah. Then she leaves the club and throws that fucking axe into its face. So hold on a minute. I forgot that one In my head. I was already. Hey, you forgot one. And then she fucking opens this door and grabs it. Oh, I need this, thank you. And she didn't use any of those knives the rest of the time. No, it was guns. I don't think she used a single weapon twice. She used handguns quite a bit, yeah, but you can really, unless you zoom in or something you know, or a real gun.

Speaker 1:

He'll have to talk to Lowe to see if they use the same gun twice. I was just going to mention Lowe, because that's the gift. I want to get Lowe One of them gold coins. You can go to a gun shop. I, that's the gift. I want to get One of them gold coins. You can go to gun shop. I need to get him one of those. He can go back in the big boy section. You're going to make him talk to Frank Like these, these, these, I want this. I want this. Goddamn, what's all this boring ass? Oh, you want the good stuff. Yeah, you got the hunting. Oh, big, I found it funny.

Speaker 1:

She didn't want to use any of the old guns. When she finally found the grenade, she wasn't trying to use any of the old ones. I don't want these. Oh, grenades. Yeah, she didn't spend a lot of time looking for ammo. No, whenever ammo crates there, some of those are prehistoric guns. They had like AKs in there and those were like M16s. I'm like god damn, they got the prehistoric guns in there. Well, now they're prehistoric. Got all these futuristic looking and all the ones that are known to lock up in battle like that. They can definitely tell she doesn't have the money because she didn't have a bulletproof vest. Oh yeah, all the bullets bouncing off.

Speaker 1:

A wick, ting, ting, an awful wick Ching, ching, ching. I still don't fucking understand that suit. That's super-tempo. You're not supposed to understand it Like. I would love to see something like that in real life. Ching, ching, ching. God damn, man, don't get hit for nothing. My favorite armor are still two. The British guy that was in Guardians of the Galaxy, him setting up for the dinner party. He's still my favorite one. It's like, oh, I'd like a tasting and it's the entire concept of armoring him. That was still my favorite one so far.

Speaker 1:

Like I said, that whole thinking of moments from the franchise. See, it's hard for me to really remember iconic moments from one and two because it's been so long since I've seen those. I'd have to rewatch them. I just thought of Dean walking into an armory and it's a gay guy. Huh, oh God, I mean he was named Frank. No, because you said I'd like a tasting and for some reason I thought, oh, this is Dean's fucking. It's a gay guy that wants to sell him. I'm talking about the town and the end of Ballerina, the stairs, because the stairs are legendary now and the fucking.

Speaker 1:

I think I don't know if that was that also in 4, or is that 3? The fucking circle driving that they're in for 20 minutes, pop, pop, pop pop Going around in a circle 4. That was 4 too. Yep, that too. The round where he took off the fucking door and he's just Every ridiculous thing. It was in four. Every ridiculous, I'm sorry man, it gets punched down upstairs when he literally got thrown out of a third-story window and didn't stuff in. All he got was a limp. God, I'm starting to remember why four is so iconic.

Speaker 1:

Was four the one where it gave you that up-down video game shot too, where he's got the fucking flame rounds? It's all 4. You love that because you found the dragon rounds? Yeah, those are actual things. You went from fire breath rounds to flamethrowers. It actually had a fucking comparison. Pow, pow, pow. God. They fucking. I give these people credit. They do their shit. You got the comparison. Yeah, pow, pow, pow. God, they fucking all the. I give these people credit. They do their shit. You got the lines from 1, 2, and 3.

Speaker 1:

The comedic aspects of fighting were all in form. Somebody would say it's like it's. So. Would you say this? That Ballerina combined the aspects of all of them? No, no, no. So it hit more.

Speaker 1:

I think because we had three other movies of John Wick being John Wick before we got this. I think they figured something out because one and two had their moments but, like, one and two were still amazing, but they were a little more grounded. Then three hit and they just started wait, let's go really bonkers with this shit. Fuck. Logic three is where you got. Let's get. Let's really bonkers with this shit. Fuck. Logic Three is where you got all this world. How can we figure out? Let's get bonkers.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to take John Wick's life and see how he lives. They're scoping out that shot for the fucking stairs. What do you guys think of John Wick falling down these bitches when he gets up to the top, like three times? Let's do it In the second one. You got a taste of what the world was. Three gave you the world and it's like oh, then four, fuck it, let's go. And Ballerina, let's keep that, let's have a flamethrower fight in the center of the street.

Speaker 1:

He only started to go to the other countries in two, because when they got it he asked if he was here to kill the Pope. I'm sorry. I always remember one, though because of you killed John Wick's dog and stole his car. That's just gonna live right forever. That's one of the best scenes ever. Had movies recreated. And stole his car. I heard you struck my son. Yes, I did, sir, and are you going to tell me why? Yeah, he uh killed John Wick, his dog, sir, and uh stole his car. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. And the guy that was assigned to protect him in the warehouse in the rest of the movie is in this movie. I didn't recognize him at all.

Speaker 1:

God, they were making that first John Wick. Like I think we got a little bit of a hit. No, we got a. No, it was after two, we got a franchise boys that people are going to just keep going to see Because they want mindless action. But they did learn.

Speaker 1:

You do have to kind of put it in a Movie format, because Continental did not do anything at all. That was 6 episodes and nobody watched it. Apparently, it wasn't very good either. All right, I didn't watch it. I don't know where you can watch. It wasn't in the prime thing.

Speaker 1:

They've done pretty much. They've done aspects of this throughout the whole movies, throughout all of john wick, especially the later ones. They've did aspects of this. But I would really like it if See, this is kind of ripping Expendables just a little bit, but I do like what Expendables does. John Wick 5, let's just say, see, the high table's done, though I don't know if that could work, but Hitman still probably exists. I would like to see. That explains it. The only person I know with a Peacock subscription is him. I would like to see, like you said, there's aspects that they've used already. But like the world's best hitmen going after John Wick, like different countries, but cast some top tier epic actors to be each of them. We've used all of them already. We've used a lot of them already. Outside of going to the old guys. You see what I'm doing. It's like an Expendables thing. You had Donnie Yen, you had what's-his-name from. Yeah, they've used a lot of classic action. Halle Berry. They had Halle Berry.

Speaker 1:

No, what's the guy that was in the fat suit before? Oh fuck, what was his name? Ah, suit, he was fighting the fat dude that kept kicking his ass. But he's not an actual fat actor, he was in a fat suit, he was an expendable. He was an expendable. Scott Atkins, dean. I want Danny Glover and Arnold Schwarzenegger that him. I know Scott Atkins, dean. I want Danny Glover and Arnold Schwarzenegger that Him. Yep, I know Scott Atkins. He was in the fat suit in 4. Well, you'd have to. Jay segued me in the fucking Predator and I'm like fuck, which is why I actually would. I'd see, I remember now. I remember that, but I do not see him. Like, when you look at a normal picture of him side by side, yeah, everybody knew who it was In the fat suit. You got Donnie Yen, you don't need Jackie. Yeah, jackie Chan, that would be. I'm just kind of craving that because I love the concept of Expendables, but that's kind of dead now. I did overstate its welcome because the last one wasn't that great.

Speaker 1:

Is there a Keanu Reeves friend that we have not had in a movie yet? Hmm, straight up, bill and Ted. Oh god, yeah, but it doesn't feel right. You have literal death coming after you. Oh god, I gotta go through Keanu's IMDb, don't I? He's got more, he's got a lot of friends. Oh, we don't have her yet. Trinity we don't have Trinity in it yet.

Speaker 1:

Oh God, she would fit. She would do a movie for him. That is an easy fit. I'm honestly kind of surprised she hasn't been in it yet. That would straight up work. She would definitely fit as a retired ballerina Of some sort.

Speaker 1:

You know, yeah, going on Matrix, we got Fishburne. He's fucking Fowlery King, didn't he die? I don't think he did With his pigeons, with his pigeons, no, he was in 4. Yeah, okay, the only person that died in 4 was Sharon Karin. Can't say his name. Never could Karin, karin, karin Make me want to rewatch 4.

Speaker 1:

Are you just trying to think of people who to throw in? No, no, no, I'm actually debating what to who's an expendable? Who did you just pull out of your hat, reminding that we did technically get him in? 2. Because who played? Reminding that we did technically get him in two? Hmm, because who played? Uh, are they gonna show me on here? Sure, who played Satan? Remember who played Satan in Constantine? Oh God, yeah, he was technically Vigo's brother In 2 when they were doing the entire car scene when they were trying to find his car. Tula Swinton oh, she was Gabriel. That was one I'm trying to think of the segue in the.

Speaker 1:

The next random thing, because I said I jotted down a bunch of the bigger games that were elite, talked about at State of Play too. Matt was like, oh okay, because I was like, oh, there's good filler content. I jotted down the bigger ones. You could do a Sandra Bullock because of speed. That'd be interesting.

Speaker 1:

She feels like she would be working in the high table somewhere yeah, she gives off that vibe Kind of where she was helping out Brad Pitt and Bullet Train and somewhere along those lines kind of thing. Actually, you remember how I said someone vying for power. I feel like she'd already be on the table, though she gives off that vibe more than trying to attain power. I'm not saying going for the power, I'm saying the one upholding the rules. He would be on the high table, dolph. He worked with him on Donnie Mimetic. He'd straight up be Dolph, would straight up be on the high table. Enforcer Mm-hmm. He'd be one of the first to come after him.

Speaker 1:

Let me deal with this. You idiots can't get it done. There's a lot of couple ones. The Trinity's probably the biggest obvious one. If you're going, you kind of just thought about action stars. I would like to see in John Wick at some point would work. There's a bunch. He's worked with a bunch of people. I don't necessarily look at Wick friends, but just people that I think would fit in there. There's a couple looser action stars where you could, but it's like Charlize one. Charlize Theron yeah, she was so great in Atomic Blonde she'd be fine in Wick.

Speaker 1:

I'm not as big on Michelle Rod. I got a list. I'm not as big on Michelle Rodriguez as other people are. I do like Michelle Rodriguez, but that wouldn't work. Angelina Jolie Angelina Jolie's getting old, though, so is what's her name? Jennifer Garber I was just looking at Point Break and I was like that wouldn't work. Michelle, yeoh, yeah, nope, nope, get my. Why did you get Scarlett Johansson? She was black, I don't know. Does she fit? I want a rider. What Does Scarlett Johansson fit? Barry Oldman he's basically retired. Anthony Hopkins oh shit, get him now while you can. Monica Lusci it's been a while for her. If you're wondering what movie I'm looking at, bram Stoker's Dracula oh god, why. I love how I just skipped that one.

Speaker 1:

Mila Jovovich works in John Wick. Oh, there she is. She does her own stuff now and she doesn't do much. She's in every movie. Her husband makes every fucking movie and are usually bad. We have him. He was in 4. Oh yeah, he was fuck. The only thing about that bugs me is Mila Jovovich, can you please stop doing movies. Your husband I get it, but he makes his movies are bad. Not the Resident Evil, I have fun with those, but bad. That newest one, I know they're bad fun. That newest one he just did. She was in with Batista, like oh Well, he's dead. He works for Disney.

Speaker 1:

You can have Ralph Fiennes. Yeah, what's the kicker's name? Ray Fiennes, that's a lizard A leg. Let's do that. Let's do that. It's fine. Get Kurt Russell in there.

Speaker 1:

Liam Neeson works kind of as an old school. Liam Neeson can work in there. He's just too old. He's gotten too old. I don't like him as Naked Gun. Hey, hey, me and Jay are gonna love that movie. I bet you we probably are. It's on our debate.

Speaker 1:

That fucking trailer, daddy, I miss you. Daddy Nordberg's son yeah, ryan got to see that trailer here. Pick this one out of that Siberia. You look out at Corners of Serbia. No, siberia.

Speaker 1:

Ryan got the first take of that trailer on Tuesday watching Mission Impossible. He's confused as all hell. He's like what the? Look at those names. Tell me you don't want some of them. Oh yeah, oh yeah. He had no idea what was going on, even as he took off the face mask and the bank. What, what did he say? Frank Drebin. It wasn't until he said Frank Drebin. Ryan finally caught on. Oh, naked gun, frank Drebin. And then them bowing to their fathers in the memorial scene. Hey daddy, that was the oh no, nordberg. I'm sorry he hadn't seen the Nobody 2 trailer until then either.

Speaker 1:

Sorry, nordberg's son still kills me, mm-mm, because it's OJ. Mm-mm, he did that movie, right, is that when OJ Simpson? Then he chopped his wife up and her lover into pieces. It didn't fit, though, but he did it. He did it, or OJ? Oh God, I still can't believe that OJ's the reason.

Speaker 1:

Last time the fucking Broncos were fucking relevant, that fucking Ford Bronco. Are you trying to tell me they're cursed now too, because of OJ? Nope, I'm just laughing. I've seen a meme about his Ford. He drove away in a Ford Bronco. It's like this is the last time any Bronco is relevant. It's not a fast-paced Bronco.

Speaker 1:

Oh God, lions almost ended their curse. I say almost, leave me alone. Don't let them become another Brewers team to me. Alright, they'll figure it out. Alright, I mean Speaking of which? Nah, I guess it's a neat witch.

Speaker 1:

Still, I've got episode two of Age of Umpra and they left it off on a cliffhanger. I'm still debating whether I would completely recommend it to them or not. Age of Umpra, and they left it off on a cliffhanger. I'm still debating whether I would completely recommend it to them or not. Age of Umpra, the Critical Role, elden Ring yeah, elden Ring, berserk 1.

Speaker 1:

I watched all of Lazarus. I'm kind of pissed off. It ended on a cliffhanger. Lazarus isn't done yet, is it? Oh, when the fuck does the next episode come out? Yeah, 8. Saturdays are the release Saturday or Sunday? Is the website I use gets it on Sundays? They kind of ended with this fucking string assassin throwing a knife around. Yeah, that was just the most recent episode. Nobody said it was done Because I'm watching it on HBO. It made me feel like because I was binging it. It ended right there. Where's my next episode? I have not watched that one Don't know if I'd like it or not.

Speaker 1:

It's fine. It doesn't live up to Cowboy Bebop Not really. You'll like the guy who breaks out of prison. The characters are fine. The main cast is good. You'll be wondering why the hell they had to have a black guy, just because They've hit every trope, yeah, every identity trope, every single one. They exchanged a dog for a cat. The cat was always there. Yeah, I just like that. It's the Japanese tropey fat cat with a small tail but always showing.

Speaker 1:

What are my two favorites that I watch currently? Oh, country Bumpkin. I do like Country Bumpkin. I actually love Country Bumpkin. I enjoy that a lot more than I thought I would. I like Country Bumpkin turned Master Swordsman. I recommend it. It's good. Yes, that's Amazon.

Speaker 1:

And you know who my favorite character is? Of course, redheaded adventurer. Yep, I don't know how it's going to end. She's got a spunky attitude. There's only three or four more.

Speaker 1:

I love Fire Force. Fire Force is into its final shift. I I can't get back to it. I can't tell if he's fully going to face the church or not. It definitely seems like it. That's kind of where it's going. And you know I worship Windbreaker with everything, every fighter of my being, especially now.

Speaker 1:

What's another one that I'm watching? I don't know how to feel about one of the ones I'm watching. It's kind of losing its edge. Oh, that happens, they do that. A lot of them start hype and then it's like, oh no, it's turning into poop. It's not, it's hype. You didn't even say the full thing, like Ninja Comley on Max turning into poop. I had three episodes Great, no, no, no, that's losing it. Now I'm the evil lord of an intergalactic empire. Oh yeah, I wish that would be dubbed more. It's not currently dubbed, I know, and it sucks, but that's been very tropey too. It was always gonna be tropey.

Speaker 1:

What's another one? The fact that it it was always going to be tropey. The fact that it, when I was going to read that, before it ever got an anime, has a harem tag. The guy never goes for a single woman, except for the one An android. Currently, I'm still waiting for the princess to come back into play. You talking about the one that gets revived, well returned, no longer a monster body. She's going to serve him, but I know it's not going to be. Yeah, she's just going to serve him. She's not going to be an interest. There will be a princess, but I don't think they'll touch on that in this season. If they do, no, because he's going to go to a royal school. Oh, we're doing that trope. Yeah, okay, he's going to fight in his Mecca and mess with the princes and the popular kids. Oh God, I heard Mecca. Oh shit, that died. It's got space pirates Me. We just haven't gotten there yet.

Speaker 1:

Not a lot of mecha. I am JJ when it comes to mechas, except for one, because Gurren Lagann is the goat. You will actually give other mechas a chance. Jj won't even touch a mecha.

Speaker 1:

I'm a connoisseur of anime in general. I will try you shit. I'm a connoisseur of anime in general. I will try most you shit. I'm not even going to tell everyone what my next one I'm going to watch is. I ain't telling nobody. The Gold, that is quite literally I do not have it on purpose now, but he purposely said it to me the Gold, that is the one of the watching apothecary diaries. You want some poison? No, what's the watching of Hothagiri Diaries? You know it's a poison. No, it may or may not be poison. No, I have an interest in living. It is the color green, so it's kind of weird.

Speaker 1:

My next one I'm going to tackle is complete slice-of-life comedy and I'm like I'm ready for it. Oh, if it was purple, that'd be even better. Nope, it's called Kageya-sama. Love is War. That's the next one on 10. That's the next one on 10. Complete JH is like dude, you should watch it, you'd like it. I was like, okay, I don't have anything to watch right now. I've been trying to get into a couple different things and nothing's really. Windbreaker's gonna be leaving me in a few weeks, so that's almost done. Fire at the Whore A lot of the seasons ones are done, almost done, that aren't close yet.

Speaker 1:

This one keeps popping up on my mind and I might watch it. Sword of the Demon Hunter I stopped the first episode's an hour long. Really, they gave it a fucking movie, huh, they gave it a fucking movie to start and then it kind of deviates and it's kind of Each episode's a mission, but each one is very weird for old Japan. Yeah, I got a lot coming back though. I mean, I watch Elf Girl and the Behemoth is fine, but a lot of that becomes background noise eventually because I like it, but it's like there ain't much story for me to really pay attention to Depends on how much you can accept bestiality.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I know that's like Otama. I want to be with him. What? That's my biggest issue with it. It's like outside of the Beastie Alley talk it's like there's no size concept for this cat. Yeah, I'm sorry you had my brain going there First. You're talking about Beastie Alley and you said there's no size concept for this cat. Sometimes he's as big as the hand and sometimes he's an actual cat. There is no consistency with the size of this cat. No wonder the women love him. It's a grower. It could be any size you want.

Speaker 1:

My favorite character is the reincarnated earth dragon. I knew that would be. I know your type. He just wants to bang. That's all he wants to do. Can you get me another drink? That's all he wants to do. Give me a crush. That wasn't on purpose, got it. Give you a crush. What's your next enemy then? I don't know. I'm basically waiting for.

Speaker 1:

I just finished the most dumbest borderline hentai one I've ever seen in my life. There's a lot of good ones. I just watched Interspecies Reviewer. Hey, this one sounds. I hate how catchy that intro is. It is one of the catchiest. Interspecies reviewers had one of my fucking greatest debates ever when they're debating Fulton. Arie, love it, love that debate. I want somebody to come debate that shit with me, but I love that fucking intro and it's ridiculous as hell. I showed it to Ryan and he couldn't stop his head from bobbing.

Speaker 1:

This one sounds interesting. It's got one season. It came out in 2022. Deep insanity of the lost child. Nope, no, I haven't heard. A mysterious illness has put millions in comas. An underground realm has appeared at its origin Antarctica. Strange creatures make up its population and undiscovered natural resources make it a gold mine. Many humans enter in search of fortune, but Daniel Kai Shigure searches for something deeper, a cure Gifted with immunity to the illness. He might be humanity's last hope.

Speaker 1:

I've been seeing a lot for. Is Mushu Kintensai coming out with the next season? I'm not sure. I haven't heard. I thought I'd heard. I've been seeing a couple releases for it for the end of the year. There's a couple ones I'm interested in, but again, though, a lot of mine. I got a couple big ones. A lot of mine are, if I'm going to summer ones Don De Don, season two is coming back, and I really like don to don, so that's coming back. Kaiju number eight, season two, but that mom is ending in two chapters. So, um, sakamoto days. To come back, dr snowman, I'm, but I'm waiting for that to fall off a cliff. There's one coming out in October, a sentence to be a hero that looks intriguing. So I have to be a hero to watch One Punch man at some point.

Speaker 1:

Season 3, which I need now. Master Swordsman Evil Lord, I still read that one Getting After the End. Master Swordsman Evil Lord, I still read that one. Oh yeah, getting After the End. Oh yeah, my Call of the Night's coming back on Hi-Dive 2 and I need that. Four episodes to watch. That's a weird title to read. What New Panty and Stocking with Garter Belt. It says new yeah With Garter Belt. It literally says new yeah With Garter Belt. It literally just says new in the title yeah, I don't know how to take that. I thought Reborn is the ending which you can. Season two how I wouldn't have thought that one was that popular. Apparently it is Wildblast Boss appeared, I heard was decent Digimon Beat Break.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I forgot my Dress of Darling, fucking waiting on that. I will not recommend that one to anyone because that's my little slice of life, goat. But my Dress of Darling, season 2. That is my slice of life. Goat right there. Love that my status as an assassin exceeds the hero. That sounds like a good one. Stop peddling rising of the shield hero to me. Stop. That is so can be so fucking boring. So October is gonna be my Spy Family season 3, october. Yeah, I'm not getting my Jujutsu Kais until fucking 2026. I'm a little sad aboutujutsu Kais until fucking 2026. I'm a little sad about that. Well, this one's got Dean written all over it. Actually, these both do. This monster wants to eat me, hey, and the barbarian's bride, yep, that's on my list just because of my Me.

Speaker 1:

What do you guys want to do? Top tens or we want to discuss our schedule? We'll do the schedule. Well, I want to bring up these games a little bit. I mean, we're games, yeah, we're games, because I was like, oh, I'm going to do that Because we never. It's something that happened in media. I'm like, oh shit. I mean what do we got? We got a new 007 game. Looks pretty cool. It's by the same guys that did fucking Hitman. They're trying hey, look at that Assassin's being talked about again. Shit, I know he doesn't count, but I said something there that spoils one of mine.

Speaker 1:

Agent 47? Damn it. I omitted him because I expected him to be on yours. I also that's a childhood game, so he's going to be a. I'm also torn because technically I would be basing it more off the movies, because with video games it's a little harder, because it's like you're technically the assassin doing everything. So I'm kind of mentally torn. It's like you're the one performing all of them as Agent 47. Right, right, you wouldn't be able to do any of these assassinations without you. I don't know if anyone has the same memories. Those are childhood. I played a shitload of those on PS2. Those are childhood games, right there.

Speaker 1:

When is our reset date? What day of the month Next week? Was it the 14th or 15th? 15th, okay, I don't expect a lot of let's see. We're basically capped out for this one. They're doing a Nioh 3. I don't know if Matt heard that. I don't know if Matt likes Nioh, though it was one of the bigger ones they announced.

Speaker 1:

I'm getting my Metal Gear Solid 3. I'm getting that. They showed more of that. Let's see. Oh, silent Hill F is what I'm really excited for. Is that taking place on the Haunted Mountain? Silent Hill F is literally a village in Japan. They thought Silent Hill got too western, so they're taking it back to Japan. I can appreciate the shit out of that. Silent Hill is just one of those concepts where it's human psychology right To an extent, but there's also real monsters and shit to an extent. Well, yeah. But I'm really excited for that because I was nervous about it and I seen gameplay and I'm like oh yes, this is it, and Konami just making a full-blown comeback, which is funny to me. They ain't making.

Speaker 1:

I know I got my in, you got your in. You bought him at Lost World. I bought him next. I asked about I bought him next. He actually has a deck now. He bought the deck. Yeah, he finally bought the deck. Yeah, I did, and she loves me now for it, and I have to go up there and play Friday. So when he's off Friday he's learning. Well, I have to wait to come in order to get my deck. I was planning on stopping somewhere on the way, probably Friday. Oh, this one had me dying though. But Code Vein 2, I'm getting a sequel, I'm getting a Code Vein 2.

Speaker 1:

I didn't expect that. That's sour, because he helped Levi beat that game by cheating. Maybe sour for you. I remember that I beat it. Say, Dean, I beat this game. Well, you didn't do it the right way. I actually said that out loud. You didn't do it the right way. I don't add cheats into my games until after I beat it. Do it the right way. I don't add cheats into my games until after I beat it. Then the big one for me, because JJ messaged me and I seen it, but I was going to mention it Resident Evil 9. Requiem.

Speaker 1:

Jj was like I didn't see the trailer for that. It doesn't have one, or is it just? It has a trailer? You don't think it's Resident Evil at first, but it's going back to the ruins of Raccoon City and that's why I'm like I'm going to cream myself. They didn't show you. The main character is Grace Ashcroft, I believe she's one of the characters from Resident Evil, her mom's from Resident Evil Outbreak. That was on PS2. Her mom was in that game. But if you listen to the trailer you can kind of hear voices of other characters and Leon's in it. You hear his voice, which I'm almost in. I'm a Leon fangirl. Jill, I think, is in it. Chris might be. They might have everyone in it, because it's the most ambitious Resident Evil game ever. They say so I'm like, uh-oh, no, because I woke up to that message.

Speaker 1:

Jj, dean, dean, look, look, I forgot to tell you that Shit Because I want to see if I can get the tradition back usually go over to wherever the fuck he lives and play it with him. I can't do that. Last time I did that with you. Yeah, he pissed JJ off. He annoyed JJ, not pissed him off, he annoyed JJ. He said the same joke 30 times. I was still laughing, because I'm a simpleton. What's up hurting him? It's due to your fault. For the same pussy. Because I'm a simpleton. What kept hurting him? Dude, you're falling for the same pussy. Well, yeah, I was just surprised. I'm like, oh, there's got some good games coming. I was really shocked by that, because normally I only pay.

Speaker 1:

I get one or two games out of these game things they do and then I don't care anymore. They actually released a couple things Like oh, my god, you want to tell them about the game I just sent you earlier. Oh, the waifu tactical shooter. Waifu tactical Codename, wtf. Waifu tactical force. Waifu tactical force. Oh, good times. It's just a waifu shooter, hopefully, good times. They've had other games very similar to that. I know a zombie one at that. Good times, good times, all right. Like I said, I just want to mention a couple games. Yeah, about that for a little bit.

Speaker 1:

We've got for scheduling now what you feel is going to be. Well, I've got. I remember we got the thing. Now Time is not as much of a concern, nope. So before the reset we have how to Train your Dragon. It's whether or not we want to do an episode on that. I highly doubt it. That's fine. So we're fine until the reset, because all we've been talking about is We've done animated movies before too, yeah, so that'd be hard to, yeah, that'd be hard for me to get content.

Speaker 1:

So Then we've got three and three before resets. Three and three, three movies and three movies. How much time we have? Twelve. Well, I like doing ones that we can at least.

Speaker 1:

Well, here's the next three, 28 years later, maybe Jurassic World, rebirth, maybe. And Superman, that's a must. Even Jay, superman's a must, and that's all before the. I say any Marvel and DC movie is a must for us, because that is our foundation. That is where we started, I know. I'm just saying all three of those are between our reset and the next reset. All three of those are yeah, it doesn't fucking matter. Well, if you had to pick, we have nine hours and three minutes left.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, before, if we had to pick between Jurassic World what's it? Jurassic, what's the name of it? Now, rebirth, rebirth and 28 years. That's close because I'd yap more about I can't say this for sure, but I'd yap more about 28 years for sure. But I think you guys would yap more about the Jurassic. You'd find a way to talk for Jurassic World Because of Scarlet. You'd have lots to say. There wasn't enough ass shots, not enough. I lied, oh, it's the 18th. Nah, I do think 28 years it doesn't change, though Actually it doesn't change anything. I still think 28 years later is going to be probably a really good movie.

Speaker 1:

My issue is I don't have much to talk about with 28 Years Later, because it's zombies and shit. I think I've only seen one of the others. It'd be zombies and it'd be zombie-centric because it's kind of a zombie movie. So that was another thing. It's zombies, but I think I've only seen one of the other movies. Oh, yeah, what between days and weeks? Yeah, okay, that makes sense. I don't think Jay.

Speaker 1:

I think Jay was the one that said he hadn't seen any. You ain't seen those, have you, or no? I don't remember. Nope, bits and pieces. I've seen the Kill and Murphree one. That's days. That's the first one. Yeah, I have not seen weeks. Well, this one's getting so much hype because people have wanted the next.

Speaker 1:

Oh, here's another. Yeah, so we haven't aired it. It's Aaron Taylor Johnson. Yeah, so we have all three of those and then the following ones. We have Fantastic Four. That's gotta be a must, even though I'm the naked gun. Yeah, it might be just me and J1. But we can do an episode on that. We could. That's the point, because we've seen the naked gun. Low key that would be. They've been sprinkled in, but I've said I've never gotten to do just purely comedies, like a top 10 comedies. That might be the spot for that. That would be the spot for that, because we don't see comedies ever.

Speaker 1:

I know what your list is going to be Me and Jay. Oh, fuck, you call my whole list. That'd be funny as a bitch. Jay's going to have a thing. Yep, there's that one. There's that one, there's that one. Which Vince Wong movie is this? Which? Uh, oh, hey, hey, hey, there goes. Owen Wilson, oh, hey, oh shit. Yeah, look, look, look, look, there goes that one. So Fantastic Four, naked Gun and Nobody 2. There's Step Bros, who's wondering when it's gonna come up. That might be a mutual one.

Speaker 1:

That's one of ours to randomly watch for over and over and think it's still funny. It is still funny, but we still laugh. Oh God, why the fuck does he have Zoolander on there? That's an odd one. He threw that one in there to fuck with us, didn't he? Zoolander? I hate because I like it, but there's a line that just lives in my head rent-free. He's trying to do what is this? A house for ants? Is it smaller? No, not that small. What the fuck was it called the glare? What is this? A house for ants that lives in my head rent-free, for whatever fucking reason. You know what lives in your head rent-free Waifu. I don't know if there's one in particular, but sure A lot. You have a recent one. Yes, red-headed adventurer. Yes, she's great. Oh God, let me see.

Speaker 1:

See, it would have to be Fantastic Four, because I'm agreeing with Jay on the rule of they're the cornerstone, even though I just think this movie's going to be so mid. Why do I think this? Because it's Marvel. We go into it. It's just a family movie. Ten minutes of it is action. I'd be sitting like what the fuck is this? Come on, marvel, come on. We want this to be a family movie. Watch, watch, watch. We get one scene where in the background all we have is Ben and Johnny sitting on the couch and we hear Susan in the background. What was that? Oh, somebody rolled a one. I got no reaction out of him. I seen that little side eye from you Like why'd you say that it's a Disney movie? It never happened.

Speaker 1:

The best thing I'm going to get out of that is the fucking jokes of Patriot. Have another magic kid. I wish I could be in the room if he ever did Start watching Age of Rumble, because I want to see how he's going to explain the rules to himself. Because he has going to explain the rules to himself, oh, because he's going to have no concept for the rules of this game. And I'm going to be like neither do I.

Speaker 1:

I watched this just based on the speculation. He's here to crit. That would make him happy, oh, great. Because you roll 2d12s at the same time, oh, okay. And every time you roll doubles to crit, oh okay. I think I'd fuck more on that one, yeah, you'd roll a lot with fear. So the rule is you have to have two different color D12s. One is a positive die, one is a negative die, and if you roll higher in hope, you get a bonus, if you roll lower in fear, you get negatives. Is that it? Is that it? Yeah, that was our smorgasbord until September. What else we got? Oh, then we got Predator still looming, but that's not until November.

Speaker 1:

Fuck, do you want me to go over what I put in my phone just for you? You don't have to. I remember most of them, but I know Jay likes of them. But I know Jay likes Tron, but I September, you've got the Insidious Conjuring oh Lord Him, I don't know if Matt would go see that. August, make a gun together. Matt Weber wins.

Speaker 1:

October. We got Mortal Kombat 2. Yes, witchboard, we're gonna have issues in November. Honey, don't. November's afty boy. Predator Badlands Now you See Me. 3 and the Running man All I have is Predator Badlands on there right now. Well, now you See Me. 3 is also in November. Jay really likes those. I'm not, as I know Jay really likes those. Now you See Me.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I wasn't expecting you guys to go see that with me, I'll see it with you, I'll see it. I will go see any movie. I don't think it'll be a podcast. No, it's not like we can come up with our top 10 magicians. We're going to have issues deciding what to do for December because we're five nights at Freddy's but I don't know what our second movie is going to be. Oh, my god, I think at Freddy's, 1 was pretty good.

Speaker 1:

Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, I did like it. Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, it veered off from what the games originally were, but I think that is actually a good thing for the movies. I mean there's Tron, but I know Jade probably like no, I haven't seen any of the Trons. The most Tron experience I have has been the Fortune of the Kingdom Hearts. Oh, that's it. So I don't know if Tron deserves a podcast because of who's in it.

Speaker 1:

I think Leto's in it, ain't he? Yes, we talked about that last week. We have a hard time talking about Leto movies Without mentioning it's Morbid Time, any Leto movie Without mentioning it's Morbid Time. Any Leto movie Without mentioning Morbius. Why is it? He's doomed to himself. We cannot talk about Leto without mentioning Joker. We cannot talk about him without mentioning Morbius. You want to know the fucked up thing, or what is it? 30 Seconds to Mars? That's his band. Yeah, you know the fucked up thing.

Speaker 1:

The guy's a great actor, he's got I just that's for sure. I think he has the best supporting actor for dallas buyers club, that's with mcconaughey with mcconaughey, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right. Fuck, he shortened it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love mcconaughey. I'd like to have him be having a concert. What matt even says. Like he just didn't. He shortened it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love Makana. I'd like to have him be what Matt even says. He just didn't care for a while. I don't care. He used to pick and choose A random thing they bring up, though. That I thought was interesting. It was a random thing on a YouTube thing.

Speaker 1:

I was watching Some of these really big A-list stars that you think are going to blow up to the next stratosphere. Like they're popular. Don't get me wrong. But some of the roles that they choose like see, do you know how popular Jenna Ortega is and the role she be choosing, people be like what are you doing? Hey, she was a fair maiden in Death of a Unicorn Death of a Unicorn. So they're like why would you do that? I get, why Hurry up tomorrow, hurry up tomorrow. Like, why are you doing that? Now, that one was.

Speaker 1:

One was girl, the one where she's fucking her teacher. Another one was like what are you? What are you picking these roles, jenna? What are you doing? I didn't watch that one. What are you doing, did you? Yes, no, I probably did. See. I had to imagine I was the teacher. I had to imagine me. I'm just making the point of what is your? You take, what roles are given to you, dude, I know, but I'd expect Jenna or Tegan to be getting a lot of.

Speaker 1:

She's got an agent. She is stereotyped, though you can't argue that she is very much stereotyped now, yeah, she's Wednesday. Because of her body figure, she is now stereotypically cast as the teenage heartthrob, loved hot, chick daughter type thing. Yep, why that shit? I'm still. And the one movie we watched where she was actually an adult and that's heavy quotations there, because, because I swear to God, she was only 18, was Hurry Up Tomorrow. Fucking, fucking gassy. That's been gassy. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Speaker 1:

Okay, that's a movie you definitely watch on your own time because you will partially enjoy it. It's not necessarily a good movie, but there's a couple things that just have me like description of the movie as it being a. But there's a couple things that just have me like description of the movie as it being a weekend music video. It's not wrong, but also not right. There's a gas can that just always shows up and it's like oh my god, what are you doing? This is gonna hurt you, me. Yeah, I expect me to be. Why do you do this? I usually do.

Speaker 1:

How old do you think she is? Jen Ortega? Yeah, 23?. Okay, she's early 20s, she's 22.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, where you said she was basically an adult, where she was playing an 18-year-old and it's like she's only 22. Well, it's not far. I'm just saying People come by and be like You're not right. No, I wasn't that far off, was I? I wasn't saying you were wrong. I just said this was going to hurt. I didn't say you were wrong. I don't know. Hurry up tomorrow. It's fucking weird.

Speaker 1:

Wednesday she's only playing what? A 16 year old, I don't know. Is she going to college or high school? It's kind of hard to tell with that fucking school. Yeah, she could just live off of Wednesday for the rest of her fucking life and be a set so fucking worshipped. You've got to let her age up a little bit before she's ever going to break out in anything else. I mean, because of the stupid controversy, she won't be in the next three years, 28 years old. That's where we'll find out where she's heading. That's usually how it is for women and it's kind of bullshit, but that's how it works, because I gotta be around 30 years old before Hollywood's like hmm, are you gonna stay? Her issue is going to be because she's a fucking short. Yeah, she's teeny Dean.

Speaker 1:

How tall are you? Six two-ish. Stand up, jesus Christ, I don't know. Yeah, she's probably around your stomach. No, shut up, james Hex, five foot one, five foot one. That's what she's listed as she might be. She's his stomach. No, are you serious? That's what she's listed as she might be. She's his stomach. No, are you serious? That's what it says right here.

Speaker 1:

Height, 5'1". Okay, I gotta give the cameraman and her movies and sets so much fucking credit. Or it's just because everybody she's around is slightly short too, like Paul Rudd? Yeah, because she stood up to his shoulder. Yeah, I don't think he's very tall. I don't think he's very tall. I'm going to tell you right now because I don't for heights. I go to this site if I search it because people for some reason it's listed at 5'10". Bullshit, I know, I'm not arguing 5'10". Do you want to know what the consensus for Jenna Ortega's height is?

Speaker 1:

Celebrityheightscom they take pictures and compare, because the internet's 4'11 and a half is what Celebrity Heights has her at, because they take pictures and compare them. Oh my, what does it say for Paul Rudd, celebrity Heights? Okay, because that's just people comparing pictures. I kind of trust that. I'm like oh my god, paul Rudd Height, you can't trust movies, you can't trust television, you can barely trust fucking pictures. 5'9", okay. So In short, okay, I can sort of see that Average guess 5'8". My grandfather is around 5'9", 5'8" somewhere around there. That means she's almost a foot shorter than he is. He loves that. No, I'm saying, compared to Paul in that movie, she wouldn't have been putting her head on his shoulder Like, uh, another one. That's funny. Shit like this always kills us. Okay, I did kind of like that. He was brought back to life. I thought he was just going to straight up die and she was going to be on her own.

Speaker 1:

Take WWE Heights, for example. They always oh fuck. They have the Rock at. Let's fuck with that too. They have the Rock at 6'5". Wwe bills him at 6'5". Rock is Celebrity height, no 6'2" Like me, but Rock's not 6'2".

Speaker 1:

Undertaker's actually relatively tall, but the food's about 7' Callaway's like 6'5", 6'7", 6'8". Normally I thought he was like 6'4". I thought he was still in the over almost 6'5", 6'6", 6'6". I must be only watching stuff where he's older. I must be only watching stuff where he's older 6'6", peak height. They have him at 6'7" and 1'4". Like I said, they really go at it with this celebrity height shit. They really compare and everything.

Speaker 1:

They're using math. Hardcore man 1'4". Yeah, the only people we know that are more dedicated to them in terms of math and science is Death Battles Fucking Death Battles. Even sometimes they don't put everything into it. I know One that everyone that they're pretty accurate with, though, because if you look at him he's tall. Randy Orton is a good 6'4". Randy Orton's a big dude. They keep him pretty, but you can always look at Randy when he's wrestling. Randy's a big dude. Cena 6'5" yeah, that's about right for Cena. He ain't gonna have a movie for a bit. He's got Peacemaker season two, and then that's pretty little he's gonna do for the next movie.

Speaker 1:

The fact that Jenna Ortega they got her at under five foot is like God damn. Yeah, matt's right, she is in here. Jay's, like you were making a motion without even trying. You were thinking about it, weren't you? Matt's got a point, though.

Speaker 1:

It's a term that I've heard used at work for a man named Brian. I love Brian, but vertically challenged, she's vertically challenged, she's almost a midget. Wait a minute. Is JJ vertically challenged? No, he's just tiny. Did you say 5'2"? Who, jen Ortega? No, jesse's. Even got 7 to 8 inches on her 4'11, 4'11 and a half. No, she's actually Midget.

Speaker 1:

For some odd reason, under 5'2 Is considered, unless you're younger At her age. She's considered yeah, yeah, but um 2 is considered, unless you're younger At her age. She's considered yeah, that is, she was half her age in 4.11. She'd be fine. Yeah, that'd be kind of. I want to look at something now, because that's got me thinking that's never good. Never mind I was off, for I want to look at something now because that's got me thinking that's never good. Oh, never mind, I was off. In order to be considered having dwarfism, you have to be 4'10 or under. Yeah, she just beats it. Yeah, she just beats it. She just beats it. She's still a lowly. She's still a lowly, but she's not a dwarf, since the fan cast Ortega's White Tiger, ava White Tiger's, 5'7", so she'd be a teeny White Tiger.

Speaker 1:

They'd use their movie magic for that, even though me, I'm for it. No, we already got our white tiger, unfortunately. Hold on, I know you were disappointed in that. We got both variations eventually, pretty much.

Speaker 1:

Sydney Sweeney, 5'3 man single. It's not just me, everyone. Oh shit, I can shoot my shot. I have a question for you. I can shoot my shot. I do have a question for you. What did you buy? The Sasquatch bathwater, or no, god damn you, I do have that coming. I'm sorry, she is just a marketing genius. She knows how to make money. I'm gonna use my hotness, did you? No, I'm tempted. I bet it's a coconut Just to get you to do it. Celebrity Heights 5'3 and 1". There's a picture of Bryce Dallas Howard Black catsuit Just black catsuit.

Speaker 1:

Yes. Black cat suit Just black cat suit yes, black cat suit. Technically you need more of a strap, but sure, just take the straps off, put the white fur around that and she's good. Her saying oh God, I couldn't see that movie if she was her.

Speaker 1:

Hey Spider, hey Peter Parker. We can't. If we're buying the tickets to the movie, he's getting the corner to himself. Hey, spider, hey Peter Parker, me falling off my phone. We can't. If we're buying the tickets to the movie, he's getting the corner to himself. What? No, we're putting him two seats away from us. Yeah, in the corner. We got to make sure. No, we got to make no. No, we got to sit. We got to sit in the corner. We got to sit in the corner. We're sitting in a corner and he's going two levels down. We're not putting him next to us or above us. Yeah, above.

Speaker 1:

Could I feel sorry for whoever who is below him? That's why I was putting him next to me, because I know damn well he's buying popcorn in that movie. But what do you do if you come? I want to put him on the stairs. So if somebody slips on it, it's funny. I want to put him on the stairs. So if somebody slips on it, it's funny, that works. I just don't want him to look towards us while he's doing it.

Speaker 1:

What if some unknowing soul comes in and we buy? On the opposite side of the movie projector, somebody just blurts out hey, this guy's jerking off over here. Are you surprised? Wait a minute, that guy's jerking off too. Are you surprised? Everyone's just jerking off in this little deal. I'm still laughing, though. Wait, I can team up with Dr Squatch and sell my bath water. She was already the spokesman. Yep, yep, dr Squatch. Geniuses, let's have Sidney Sweeney sell our fucking stuff and it works. Next thing, you know it rocks. But hey, you want to sell my stuff too.

Speaker 1:

I have a feeling that if our podcast was ever famous, you'd be the Paul Rubens. Oh God, I don't understand that reference. Popcorn bucket oh, hey man, the alleged popcorn bucket, if bucket, hey man, if. The alleged popcorn bucket, if. Oh boy, I'm debating if, by some chance in hell, sidney Sweeney had a go on a date with me fan contest and I entered and I won. I'm like I'd figure out a way to get to California. I'd get there. Your dumb ass would do what people do to Scarlett. Here's a marriage certificate. Oh, autograph. Why did I just sign a marriage certificate? You're mine now. Oh, there's a movie that wrote itself Deemed going to California with a marriage certificate. That would be a funny movie.

Speaker 1:

Sharks are ingesting cocaine off the shores in the ocean, not cocaine shark. Oh boy, oh, isn't that a movie? Cocaine shark, cocaine shark 2025, cocaine shark versus oh shit, trump. Trump broke down on all the fucking cartels. Now they gotta find a new way to get it. I mean, it's true, that's an actual plot. That's work. So somebody posted this Cocaine shark 2025, cocaine bearer vs cocaine shark 2026 yes, and bearer vs shark. Too high, too furious. Too high, too furious yes, fucking do it.

Speaker 1:

The fact that cocaine bearer is based on a true story is fucked up. It's about a bear. The bear didn't go on a killing rampage, it just died, I think. But it ingested so much cocaine. What the fuck? That's a stupid fun movie right there.

Speaker 1:

Cocaine Bear. You see that as the actual plot, don't you? Yeah, I do, I see it. Ah, it's guys, we can no longer go across the border. We have to go use waters. How are we going to do that?

Speaker 1:

Sharks I've read these sharks right here. Sharks, antonio, sharks. Don't ask why I named a dumbass Antonio. Don't ask me why I just Antonio. Jesus, I know who I'm asking on Monday if you could smuggle cocaine with a shark. I know who I'm asking on Monday. He'll tell me he's gonna look at me. He's like no, I don't even say, oh, no, no, they don't even get smuggled because I take it, take it to my house. He might even mess with you and say, no, it's easier to go up the ass. Yeah, there's days it's an old balloon trick the random fucking thoughts.

Speaker 1:

I sit there like I wonder how Matt would fit in on second shift.

Speaker 1:

Oh no, don't, I wouldn't. He'd be the one you'd be concerned with. As far as the gay jokes, he'd walk off saying I can't work here. He'd fucking bitch out, eric, I deal with them at my job. What's your point I do? Oh God, it's hard to put it. It's hard to put the gay jokes that happen on our shift in perspective. There's actual touching.

Speaker 1:

My warehouse is the lowest self-esteem known to man. No demand Known to man Known to man. Okay, I heard no demand and I'm like oh well, dean knows that one. That's why he's called a whore and one of them is married. I know who you're talking about. Number one stewardess he's probably happy right now. No, he's mad. Number one Steelers fan who's probably happy right now, he's mad. You know what his response was. At least he's not a rapist. Everyone forgets that Big Ben had rape charges on him and he got swept under the rug. You know what I feel bad for? He's not the first Steeler to do that, though he ain't gonna come back, but he's starting to gain allies.

Speaker 1:

I've seen a TikTok of people interacting with what's his name, jonathan Majors, because he got pretty much kicked out of Disney for then he can't be Kang no more, and stuff. He's getting allies. Man, people are like get him, let him back, we want Kang. It was not by far the most egregious assault thing that there was. Yeah, yeah, he was trying to walk away from the girl. Yep, I'm trying. They had audio and everything and they still were just all right. You know, fuck you, sorry Versus all these other guys where they had 20 different fucking women coming after them. Yeah, this guy has one thing on him.

Speaker 1:

Are you talking about Sean Watson? Why does he come up every fucking time? Because you're going to share a jacuzzi with him one time? No, I would never. He's as bad as Diddy. You gotta be careful around Sean and Diddy, you're a man. Do you think he's going to come around you the same way? Oh, my god, matt's in tune with that. Yeah, he does. He's going gonna have a coconut smell. Oh my god, it's gonna be made by the Rock.

Speaker 1:

I'm surprised I'm up to date doing a lot of stuff. All my fucking meme feed right now is fucking Trump versus Elon. Some of the memes are gold Yep, some of those are gold. I'm mad at them. It's great. Some of those are gold. I've had the dogs arguing across the street as the meme I've had.

Speaker 1:

You, what was the other one? I read he deleted a lot of the posts now so they might be calming down. Which one deleted them? Elon deleted a lot of them. Elon Yep, he's probably coming down. He's probably coming down. I don't know about Trump. That came out of nowhere. It made no sense. We had to let him go to appease people. Trump's backing into a corner as far as it comes to why does this turn political? No, this is just talking points. Someone told me I was yapping with my cousin at work and he's bringing up a good point. He said, dean, think of this Elon allied with Trump and all that shit and he's losing money. His fucking dealerships are getting burned and shit just because he likes Trump, and they don't explode themselves. Mm-hmm, and this could be just a ruse by Elon just to make people think he don't like Trump so he leave him alone In a way. I'm like that seems so plausible to me In a way, but you never fucking know.

Speaker 1:

Alright, I think it's top ten time. Time we at you got your games out of the way. You got the movies. Talked about my least inspired top ten of all time. No, amazing top ten, nope. Yes, I'm not gonna lie, lie, I was making my list and I was actually having a hard time with it. For some reason I didn't have that bad of a. My list was easy. I just said I've talked about 8 of the 10 already among other top 10s. Oh, one and the two we haven't talked about, I believe are my 10 and Nine. Two of them haven't talked about, I believe, are my 10 and nine. Two of them I've talked about Actually, I guess we haven't talked about three. We haven't talked about my 10, nine and eight. Everyone else has been talked about on a different podcast.

Speaker 1:

Well, some of these top tens are going to bleed into each other at some point. I wasn't expecting all of them Seven of the 10 to be in one episode. A lot of mine I have not yapped about that much. So I'm like okay, I mean, I can't remember the last time some of them have appeared. So I'm like, okay, I'd have to look at your list. I'm the one with the memory. His list is pretty good. I don't recall most of his, unless they were. It's gonna get him talking, that's for sure. Oh shit, nice, nice, a ten, alright, david, a twelve. Fuck, the last.

Speaker 1:

Our top ten is top 10 assassins or bounty hunters, whatever. Killers, basically killers. There you go. Killers, my number 10. I'm waiting for you to bring it up. Roz is my first honorable mention, by the way, roz Engel.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, yes, yes, my number 10 is Sakamoto. We share that one. You put 10 in, but I can talk to it If I tie. Usually I can for a tradition. But yeah, sakamoto was my 10. To Sakamoto, I have a 10. He has potential to climb though, but a lot of mine is manga too, cause he manga has been. The anime is so young, it's coming back, but I love that. Matt Mercer did help his benefits Sakamoto. He and Laura both did the IGN release today For the new games coming out. Him and Laura both did that. I was playing it when he was coming over. Yeah, sakamoto's fun he's enduring. I like it. When he starts doing shit, he gets slim. It's just funny.

Speaker 1:

Why'd you get out of the game? I fell in love. I fell in love and my wife runs the house and I can't kill them and my wife is a good cook. That's why Dean feels so attached to the characters. Like, why is that me? That's my sin, you can fuck off. I'm not putting on that apron. You try to quit the store in a manga and I don't take that shit.

Speaker 1:

Came after me. I did not. You were mad. You were about to kill and break the rule in the store. Don't do that. I don't know who the fuck. I do not have mind reading powers. Leave me alone. Uh, sakamoto, I can't read his mind. No, shut up, shut up, shut up. You know what a fucked up thing though that makes me laugh out of jokes and Jail laughs he's talking about, because I do predict what the fuck you say and do. I'm an open book, though it's not that hard, but, um, just do it to you. Some people are harder to read. I was gonna say um, sakamoto Shin, always like, why are you thinking about killing me? Why are you thinking about killing me again?

Speaker 1:

Fucking how we started out the podcast. He's thinking about killing me again, okay, but Sakamotoamoto, I tied him with Lobo, tied him with Lobo. Lobo is iffy but I like Lobo. Lobo is someone I want to see more In, like DC and shit Go from hand to hand to the table. See if he can make the shot again. Well, yeah, six. Well, I'll be able to see Lobo soon. Momoa, momoa, you're too high. Well, yeah, lobo. I don't need to talk about Lobo that much. Okay, jake, no, because you fangirled over him, I'm just you fangirled earlier already. Yeah, I want to see him fight a God, he's a badass. He drives a biker on a fucking. You want see that. I'm getting that and he's cool.

Speaker 1:

You can't kill this guy. He's banned from hell. Fucking great. They're not going to do that in a movie. He's banned. Actually, you know, never heard of that, right, he's banned from hell. He can't kill him. He's banned from hell. Alright, Jay's 10.

Speaker 1:

Lemon and Tangerine. That works. I'm trying to think who the hell that is Bullet Train? Oh, okay, damn, it was me. Yeah, you died. You would Lemon, don't like that. You ran her over though, damn, yep, that's a fun movie.

Speaker 1:

Every single one of their interactions was just great, not to mention a diesel. You know, I should really use that term more. Quit being a diesel. Quit being a diesel, especially when you're in one of your moods. Quit being a diesel. You're gonna start doing it now, aren't you? Quit being a diesel? God damn it. Still one of the biggest fuck you movies ever. You're gonna start doing it now, aren't you? Yeah, god damn it. Still one of the biggest fuck you movies ever.

Speaker 1:

I survive and Jay dies. Oh Damn it, I still die. That's a good. You're sitting there throughout the movie. Oh my god, jay died. No, I didn't. I didn't, I was just sleeping. That's a fun rewatch movie. That's a good rewatch movie. Dean, say that again. I was sleeping, I was just sleeping. I was just sleeping. Oh, that makes sense.

Speaker 1:

You're the only one that might know who this one is Me, hattori Hanzo. I fucking know that name. That sounds very familiar. I fucking know that name, most famous for being the assassin of Ieyasu Tokugawa From Samurai Warrior. That's where I'm basing it off of. That's a left field one, but I like it. That made my brain go. It was fucking trying to fire up an engine that hasn't been fired in years. Yeah, the assassin ninja of Ieyasu Tokugawa In real life. Not actually a ninja. No, he is a samurai. That's why the name sound is so fucking familiar, because he's been in multiple things. Yeah, they use the name a lot, so I was trying to figure out which one he was fucking talking about.

Speaker 1:

You know, my first introduction to people like fucking Tokugawa it's just in the Assassin's Creed game as a fucking ninja Tokugawa. It's just in the Assassin's Creed game as a fucking ninja Tokugawa, and Ishida and Shirokama. Yeah, there's an old PS2 game I play called Kessin. Yeah, that's where I first learned a lot of them names. Those games are fucking hard. Yes, kessin's hard. Like what the fuck? The real-time strategy game? Oh God Nine, oh god Nine. My nine First anime representation.

Speaker 1:

I got Zabuza or Naruto. No, naruto, there's a bunch though you can use from there. Technically, I like Zabuza's story. He's a bunch though you could use from there. Technically, I like Zabuza's story. He's a villain, but he's still Haku's ward. And I remember Haku was just funny because all the confusion of it, whether he's a boy or a girl, that's funny. As a bitch, you love that, don't you? It's funny Haku.

Speaker 1:

I like Zabuza's design too. I like the bandages are on his face. I was talking about the femboy thing. Oh God Me. And bandages Just like a fucking. Roni Kenshin, makoto Shishio, fucking bandages, dude, fuck, and he's got a big ass. He almost made my list.

Speaker 1:

Roni Kenshin or Shishio Shishio, makoto Shishio oh, good thing you didn't. That's been on my again. It's gonna be on there anyway. Shit, yep, I'm saying it too much. I'm gonna wake up. I'm gonna wake up. I'm gonna randomly wake up tomorrow and I'm gonna send you a message and it's just gonna be talking about you. What the fuck? To me it's not the fucking TV. Yep, that'd be funny.

Speaker 1:

But yeah, zabuza, good design, solid character. Zabuza Once again, solid character. Once again. I have no numbers, so I'm just going off of feel. Feel like all these people are in a tent, but where they're going I have no fucking clue. So I'll put this one next and Dean's probably gonna laugh.

Speaker 1:

Blackstar, okay, or well, he's a very you character, some soul eater. Black Star, yes, black Star. What Black Star did you think I was talking about at first? I'm like no, that one. I was like, really, I didn't expect to hear Black Star. I'm like that threw me off for a second. Well, he starts off as an assassin. He doesn't stay an assassin.

Speaker 1:

My main thing was that I didn't like Blackstar as much. I mainly like Blackstar, because then I see Tsubaki, because that's his weapon. Huh, were you more for the twins or Tsubaki, tsubaki, all day, don't even close. Tsubaki's my favorite out of that. And Blair the cat, that's a girl. I just love her introduction, yeah, and then when I go back to see her she's in a fucking tub. Yep, yep.

Speaker 1:

I'm watching a prequel. Fire Force is a prequel which is a mindfuck in its own right. You know reading and that I didn't fucking get that until you told me yeah, fire, you see death decay at the end of fireworks. Yeah, at the end. I didn't read the end until you told me oh, that makes sense, okay, I'm like how do you not? Because I was wondering how you didn't like it is one of those ones that drop off because it wasn't coming out as often. Oh, it fell off in the abyss. That's my new term term for VOB. And then you told me ending. I was like hold the fucking phone. I had to binge it. That's fire. That's a prequel, fucking Soul Eater.

Speaker 1:

I just really like Blackstar's personality. That's why he made the list, not to mention his partner. It helps. That was number nine for me. That anime ended like crap. Let's see if I can throw a deed for a loop with this one.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, train Hartnett, what Again sounds familiar. Say that again. Train Hartnett. Hartnett Crane speaking of cats, hartnett, hartnett, Hmm, heartnet Crane Speaking of cats. Heartnet, hmm, black Cat. Okay, yep, yep, okay, yep, because, yep, I knew it. I should have known that, because when I had a Because I used to jog my memory for a lot of these lists I pull up top, I pull up Assassins.

Speaker 1:

I've seen the ones where I'm like that might be on Matt Matt's because Matt liked Black Cat. There it is. The anime's not as good. The anime's not as good. Like I just said, soul Eater animes is great, but the ending is crap. The ending's crap. Ah, the engine. Alright, let's fire up this car today. Jesus Christ, it needs some gas. I have not seen or heard of Black Cat since the first fucking anime episode we covered. Mm-hmm, oh my, yeah, which I think is Lost in the Abyss.

Speaker 1:

5.30 Tuesday, or Ballerine? Oh, he's just a cool assassin Delivering bad luck, Bad luck, bad luck, number 18. Eight, yep, the um, I ain't got to yap too much about this one, but eight's, john Wick. I got John Wick in eight. Why do you make your eight?

Speaker 1:

I love John Wick, but everyone that's above him I do like a little more. There's only one, what? There's only one, but no, john Wick's. It's not sad that that doesn't count, like I can't even count the movie 1 with Jelly because of that, to be honest, john Wick could be 8. He could be 7. Kind of a thing. The only reason 7 is but didn't reach top 5. The highest I could have got him was about Where's the highest? I could have got Wick? Probably 7 or 6, because the two above him he could be. But you'll understand why the one above him is only above John Wick because of character design. That is the only reason he's above Wick. You'll understand. You'll understand. You're not for the Wick, son of a bitch.

Speaker 1:

Bandages no, there's not a bandage theme here. More sexy than a suit, apparently. Well, yeah, because all he has to do is take the bandage. You know you can rip a bandage easier than you can rip a suit. I know he's hot, but come on, man, especially John Wick's suit. That was Makoto Shishio, reference Makoto Shishio. He's very hot.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he burned On a boat. God Rudy killed On a boat. I thought he did. They had a fight on a boat. I thought he died. I thought he died. Yeah, the reason why he wears the bandages is because he was literally killed, shot in the head and then burned to hide the body. He didn't die.

Speaker 1:

It's been fucking a prehistoric age since I've watched Roni Kenshin. Wow. I'm still an avid defender of Roni Kenshin, though, because it gets a bad rap now just because the fucking author got caught with pedo porn and I'm like it's not the material he wrote, though. You can harass people. That's not what I wanted to do. I'm an avid defender of Roni Kenshin. Still, jay's still picking.

Speaker 1:

I was debating myself in my head, but if I told you what I was debating, let us know who wins. Let us know who wins. Let us know who wins. Malcolm Merlin From Arrow I figured. I figured. Okay, it's kind of funny that he made your list over Ra Ghul.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I didn't like Raish in the show yeah, but I said Raish a lot, though I wanted to give us something new. Yeah, but you're doing right. I've said Rache a lot, though I wanted to give us something new yeah, but I get that. The entire concept of Rache, including Liam Neeson's version, and you still put Malcolm Merlyn first For Assassins and Bounty Hunters, yes, but that is disappointing. I have said Rache a lot and I wanted to do something new and different. That's all I'm saying. I could have said Malcolm Merlyn slash Errol. That still would have been disappointing that you would have put them on the same bar For that show.

Speaker 1:

It's kind of, as much as you may hate that version of him, he still killed Oliver Basically. Yeah, it did help me, didn't help, that Oliver was basically resurrected almost same day. Technically, in show-wise, I just like he was the evil version of Green Arrow and happened to be the father of his sister. The whole story was kind of cool, not to mention the actor who played him. I have Doctor who ties to him and he's been written off by film ever since Because of the allegations against him.

Speaker 1:

Oh, allegations. He's one of those actors that like to show his dick to people. Hi, brett Dang. No, he would do it on set. I know, fuck you. I know what you're thinking too. It's Dean, it's Dean, it's him, it's him. You wanna see it? I'll see it, I'll show you. Damn, he's like the fucking gremlin that has the trench coat on. Oh, that's kind of funny.

Speaker 1:

With my next one now. How do I do that? Oh no, all right. And number seven for you Deathstroke. Okay, you were reading into the wrong part of that sentence. That is literally my next one. Wow, me and Dean are on a wavelength. That is the one I said.

Speaker 1:

Design. I understand, I guess Deathstroke's design is one of the best things I've ever seen. Hey, I'd rather be tied than be off. You're already ruined by number two. Yep, damn, correct, but Deathstroke's design is no. The last time it was worse because of number one. He won't say my number one. Deathstroke's design is phenomenal. That's just yeah, yeah, that's no matter what he's in, it usually is. His design's always great. He's iconic in the Teen Titans show. He's one of the best villains, dude. I even like his concept art for the Dark Knights of Steel that I'm reading. Yeah, he's a fucking Viking.

Speaker 1:

There's only one storyline of his. I don't like Anything Death. There's only one storyline of his. I don't like um I x, anything. Destro. I exclude the teen titans movie, judas contract, the dcu. I exclude a movie called judas contract. No, just judas contract.

Speaker 1:

He's a pedophile. That's the only one I exclude that. He a pedophile. Nope, no, thanks, that don't exist. Well, he's protecting a pedophile in the fucking identity crisis story, so he kind of got to exclude that too. Dr light's a pedo winner. He's like crisis story, so you kind of gotta exclude that too. Dr Light's a pedo and he's defending him, so you gotta exclude that too. Yeah, I kind of forget about that one. Yeah, deathstroke it's a lot of allegations because he's in some questionable stories, but I still like him.

Speaker 1:

I'm worried about, so I'm worried about two of my top six. For Dean, I'm the one person throwing everyone for the oh, how did you fucking make your list? Matt said I'm like get the fuck out, but Matt said I'd rather have them on the same. So I don't gotta go now. So we're on year 7, yep, and he understands okay. Design I understand now. Design I'm still calling Makoto Sushi Mine's a fucking joke compared to what you guys Just said In terms of design. Kinda, still calling Makoto Sushi Mine's a fucking joke compared to what you guys just said In terms of design, kind of Design and everything above. But you're going to laugh because you hear his voice every time you watch Boy Kills World, sterling Archer there you go.

Speaker 1:

I can't watch that show and not be entertained. I don't know what it is, no matter what has happening in that show. I'm always entertained. It's like watching fucking. Is this the Adventure Brothers? Yeah, kind of the Venture Brothers.

Speaker 1:

The Venture Brothers Venture Brothers kills me because Monarch's wife killed me. Dog, I swear to God, that's going to be your wife. What are you doing? Damn, monarch's wife killed me. That's going to be your wife. You're smoking a hot fucking body. One thing fucking wrong with it. Oh, I can't believe it. Voice of a man With that fucking voice. He's going to love it too, because he's like are you sure you're not a femme boy? I had to bring it just because whenever I think of him, that's the image I think of for Deathstroke. The guy's designs never miss. I just love that. I love Deathstroke more than Malcolm Merlin. He's holding that over my head for some reason. I know what that is. You just can't accept that.

Speaker 1:

It made my list over Raish. Yes, because I know a lot of people wouldn't have him over Raish. Raish has been on almost every list I've had, not every one, a couple. I said almost A couple. He literally leads the League of Assassins and you put Malcolm Merlyn over the guy that runs the League of Assassins. He put his daughter on there. I would have accepted that over Malcolm Merlin. No, I have issues with his daughter. I love her and hate her, god damn it. I have the same relationship with her as Bruce does, except for the sex part. I think he just got cooked by a comic book character. Yeah, I did Get away from me. Bruce got a bunch of women that don't necessarily really want to be with him. It wouldn't be the first time. Selene only comes around when she wants shit. Damn near. They did try to get married recently, but that fell through, poor Bruce. So you good Off of Sterling. Yeah, it's a good one. So this is one I don't know if you have on your list. I assume my number five is on your list and you already brought number three, so I assume he's on your list too.

Speaker 1:

The Reaper, reaper Koro-sensei, oh, not on mine, not on for assassins. I thought about it too, and I was like I consider him not mentor. How am I going to do it again? But he was an assassin. He had a thousand kills in an assassin before he became Koro Sensei. So I can put the Reaper on, who almost made my note. Should have, though, could have Miss Bitch. Miss Bitch, that's a good one. Go ahead. I don't need to talk before Sensei anymore. We already have in other podcasts. Okay, where are we on Six? This one is probably quintessential. I'm wondering if Matt's like oh there, natasha Romano. Did I put Natasha Romano? I did not put her on, I figured that's when Black Widow was going to be on deep. Yeah, it's actually kind of sad.

Speaker 1:

I have one Marvel. It's not. Yeah, but mine's obvious. So is mine BB. I just abbreviated it BB. Yeah, bb, I don't think about it too hard. No, okay, it works. Now we're getting too quiet. Bb is. I don't even know where you went with BB. I said I abbreviated it BB. I'm like for Marvel. No, yeah, it doesn't help because there's a lot of BBs. I didn't want to give it away. It's not Bruce Banner, that would have been some shit. He's an assassin of monsters lately, but that's a different thing. Black Widow, not just because Scarlett Johansson helps, but she's got some solid comic stories and when you think of Hitman or Assassin, at least for comics, black Widow usually comes to mind. So she's pretty iconic Ever since the Red Room concept was invented, because that was not her original origin. A little Black Widow, natasha, Even though Yelena's going to go up there. I like black widow Natasha, even though Yelena's going to go up there. I like Yelena too. I like Yelena. You're just like Florence Pugh, that's true. What's not to like?

Speaker 1:

She did an interview with Andrew Garfield for one of their movies and one of the questions was how many times have you married Timothy Schmaltz? Right, and the answer is one and a half, because she has not married him yet. In Dune Five, you're on your six, actually Six. Yeah, yeah, lorigan from Darkstalkers. Okay, why'd you go so quiet? He had to think about it. I knew who it was. No, I knew. But I'm like okay, it's part of her backstory. Tell me your backstory, tell her. Tell you her backstory. You whispered it, though, so it's like you wanted me to say something. That's how it was pronounced in the joke. Tell me your backstory. Christ, I want to cry. Tell me a sad backstory. Your children are dead.

Speaker 1:

I don't have any jokes. Sure about that one. Sure, I have honorary ones, according to him, but they're not mine. He thinks they're mine. They're not. How's it honorary? Damn you, they're not mine. It's not my fault. They all act like me in waves. Damn it, I'm cursed.

Speaker 1:

My number five, jason Bourne. I knew it would be a song. Whatever he is, matt Damon, matt Damon, those are good movies, good quality movies. You can probably rank. God, I'd have to rewatch those to rank them all. Those are not in my fresh in my memory. Three, one, four, two. You're like who's the worst? That's just kind of sad, because the villains of in my memory, 3, 1, 4, 2. You're like who's the worst? That's just kind of sad, because the villain is one of my favorite actors, carl Urban. Who's the villain in 2? Carl? I really do have to rewatch those. It's been a long time for me. Shit, my movie memory is very fucking good, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1:

It's also a series that they sometimes, like Harry Potter, just put on TV for no reason at all. I have them on Blu-ray in a Blu-ray box. I just ain't watched them in a long-ass time Because I tend to. That's one of my box. I just ain't watched them in a long ass time.

Speaker 1:

I have a press, one of my problems, like just the Jason Bourne ones. Or do you have the other one too, jason Bourne? What's the other one you're referring to? Bourne Identity yeah, is it Supremacy? No, that's, that's all. Bourne Identity, bourne Supremacy, bourne Ultimatum and then Jason Bourne yes, I have them all. I have them all. There was one with a different actor. Oh, he's talking about the Jeremy Renner one. Yeah, oh, the spinoff. Oh yeah, I might. I'd have to think I know I got all the fucking Matt Damon ones, because that's one of my problems.

Speaker 1:

I rebuy movies in box sets. That is one of my weird things I do to waste money. I rebuy box sets Like Fast and Furious. I have them all. I have to rebuy them as I come out on box sets Like go box set, go box set, go box set.

Speaker 1:

It's amazing how many actors were actually in those movies that we don't think about. Oscar Isaac was in the Jeremy Renner one. Yeah, it was the guy at the cabin. Yeah, you say certain scenes. My brain actually flickers the scene in my head. I can describe the scenes. I can lead you down the right track. Born legacy was Renner's. You know the sad part about that. That makes me feel that I would be a horrible, fucking sleeper agent because it'd be too easy to wake me up. I have to say the right word Stubb, you fucking winter soldier.

Speaker 1:

Speaking of which? Speaking of assassins, number five for Deaton Five, yeah, Mine was Jason Bourne, agent 47 from the Hitman franchise. It's lower than I would have expected for you. Well, when you hear who's above him, you'll understand there's some heavy hitters in the talks, well. Well, there's one I expect in your top five. We all know who it is probably. Well, let's see. No, 47 is kind of.

Speaker 1:

He has fun. I have fun with the movies. They're not great by any means, but they're fun. At least I have some fun with them. But them are just them. Movies.

Speaker 1:

Them games are just attached to child because I played them a lot when I was a kid Hitman 2, silent Assassin and Blood Money I played a lot. It's a shame I didn't play as much of the PS4 ones, because they really did a lot with those. I didn't play them as much. It's on my list to go back and play them. Aren't those the ones that they made mission-based? Those are the ones where they gave the maps. You don't have as many missions, but the maps are fucking gigantic, yeah, and there are so many ways you can tackle each assignment. So they kind of changed the formula a little bit. And the funny thing is 47 is kind of bland in his own way but he's weirdly charming in his own way. Diana, pass me through to Diana. He's got an iconic voice too. I can play his voice in my head.

Speaker 1:

Who played him in the movies Olin Flat, once or both times? He's got three different movies that I know of At least I think. I think it's two, I think it's two, it was at least two, I don't know why. I have my head set on three. I know Olin Flatt. Timothy Olin Flatt was in one of them. I don't know if he was played in both, though I can tell you in a second. Rupert Krend Yep, we're going to see him dress a Coral Reaver One. And Oliphant Oliphant yep, was he not both? He was the first one he didn't play him in both, did he? No, okay, oliphant was the first one he didn't play him in both, did he? No? Okay, elephant was the first one. Oh yeah, that was 2007.

Speaker 1:

One was just called Hitman, another one was Hitman. Agent 47. Yeah, and that was in 2015. Yep, damn that movie's old. Oh yeah, they're getting there. All right, agent 47. I don't like hearing that. All right, agent 47. I don't like hearing that. Just damn that movie's old. It was only fucking 10 years ago. Yeah, and I remember seeing the trailer for that movie. That's the part that sucks. Agency. Fetch me through to Diana. Damn, that's going to be in my head now all day.

Speaker 1:

Great Kagura Bachi, ah shit, not Kagura Bachi. Do it again, ah shit. Ushikote-san, ah shit, not kakarabachi, ah shit, it's not even the right one. And he still did it.

Speaker 1:

I'm just, I'd be a weird sleeper agent too. No, I'd be confused too much to be a sleeper agent, kakarabachi. Then you say something else. I get thrown off again. I just did. I said mishukotense yeah, that's. I'd be a terrible sleeper agent because I'd be thrown off too quick by different words. I just did. I said Mishuko Tensei Makoto Shishio. I'd be a terrible sleeper agent because I'd be thrown off too quick by different words. You say the wrong word and he still waits. The fuck. Which part of him? Which part of him? Oh god, he's a sleeper agent, but it's only for porn. I'm a porn sleeper agent. You say the magic word. Well, he just wrote a movie by himself. There better be cocaine, I think I know already. Oh God, okay, jay, that's funny.

Speaker 1:

Bucky Barnes there it is BB. Bb, there it is. Okay, I'm so dumb now. Bucky Barnes, there it is BB, there it is. Well, you had too many BBs in Marvel to pull from. One of my obvious ones isn't an assassin, bruce Banner, yeah, a lot of the Marvel characters I like aren't double named like that. Like Amadeus Cho, a lot of the Marvel characters I like aren't, you know, double named like that. Yeah, like I'm an AS show, yeah, ac. Uh, there's only two. I only have two Peter Parker and Bruce Banner. Yeah, those are the only two double letters. Yeah, the rest of them don't have that. Yeah, bucky Barnes was on my short. I was on a.

Speaker 1:

I thought about him for a second. There's not much to not like about him, especially his comic run. Okay, comics or a whole. I like Sebastian Stan as him. He did bring that character to life very well. Well, a lot of the fucking MCU actors did.

Speaker 1:

He gave a shit about Iron man before Robert Downey Jr. Some people did. But a lot of people think they're weird. Yeah, I am weird for that, because I liked Iron man since the fucking 90s cartoon. So that's the one that made me like Fing-Fang-Foom and the Mandarin Jay's like. Yeah, I am weird, I liked Iron man a little bit, I'm just saying no one. Mandarin was fucking different In a 90s cartoon. He looked fucking orange, but you can't deny the fact. Okay, fuck me, I just realized what the 90s did there. Yep, he's Asian and he's orange, mandarin oranges. Yep, we're simple minded idiots, jay, okay, the 90s were more racist than I remember. I wonder how many of them characters in the mcu fucking their actor just injected so much popularity.

Speaker 1:

The fucking guy that shot the original power ranger said I can't believe I got away with zach being a black ranger and trini being the yellow ranger. I can't believe I got away with it. Honestly, rest in peace, trini, and I hope the fucking a Black Ranger and Trini being a Yellow Ranger. I can't believe I got away with it. Honestly. Rest in peace, trini. And I hope to fucking God, I actually meet him at Mad X. Oh yeah, I forgot Black Ranger. Yeah, he's supposed to be there. No, I get that mixed up. Whenever you say Black Ranger, first I think of his Bosch, johnny Young Bosch. He was black, wasn't he? Yeah, second was the second. I got that mixed up. Oh, yeah, he is at Maddox. Whenever Black Ranger, I think of Johnny Young Bosch. Wait, is Johnny going to be there too? No, not enough, that's been fucking something. I'd be pissed. I'm going for one person. Damn it, I gotta go meet Free Rent. Now the rerun.

Speaker 1:

My number four is Boba Fett. Well, you know he's on mine somewhere. I figured he would be. That was the one I knew that was on there because it brought him up to me Because I was like bounty hunter Still a killer, dead or alive. Well, because I was like bounty hunter Still a killer, dead or alive. Well, boba Fett was. Yeah, I don't want to spoil. I will say one thing he is not one Only because he's not. Then I don't have to.

Speaker 1:

He was who was number one on my Star Wars? No, I think he was number one on my Star Wars list. It was him Plo Koon or Darth Vader. I think he was number one on my Star Wars list. It was him Plo Koon or Darth Vader. I think it was Boba Fett. That was a hard pick between them. But if you're number one on a previous list and I have to use you again, I will try to like really narrow it down, not to use you, at least not as high.

Speaker 1:

Rache. I'll still put you on there if you deserve to be on there, but you completely omitted him though. You completely omitted him still doesn't matter. That's the thing. In his top 10 is Rache? Where is he? Where are you hiding him? It's the issue that he should be on and I omitted him because I thought somebody was Matt's over here. I admitted him.

Speaker 1:

I'm sitting in his chair. He's got me tied to it. Where is Rache? Where is he in the fucking Batman? If he was tied up, I'd get information out of him his chair. He's got me tied to it. Where is Rache? Where is he In the fucking Batman house? If he was tied up, I'd get information out of him. You tell me, or you're gonna lose. Tell me or you're gonna lose. Erica, wrong house, rox, I'm down there. You're gonna lose. Where are you going? I'll just close my eyes. I couldn't yell out the other thing because it's just wrong. What the fuck? That's got me in tears now, rache?

Speaker 1:

There's always one consistent joke through these top tens. This one, it's Rache. It always deals with me. Uh-oh, only one did we get you? What was that Fluffer? Oh, damn it, it's bad.

Speaker 1:

When you were talking about torture, I said why we're not playing D&D? I think we're on D&D Because mine was Boba Fett and that's sort of the tangent. So we're on your number four, my number four. Okay, here comes number four, the uh, who's this fucked up? You're fucked up. Yes, jay should know this one, because this is to me, this is the he's known, all of them, the quintessence. He's gonna know who it is. I just don't Quintessence or Quintuplets.

Speaker 1:

I knew, that's where, the moment you stopped, I knew where Jay went, the quintessential Assassin's Creed character, ezio. That's lower than I thought you would have had him. Well, it's not like you know what is his name Altair. Altair sucked compared to. He hasn't had anything outside. Ezio had four fucking games two Brotherhood and Revelations. He also had a PSP. One thing outside that Two Etsy, etsy. Etsy had four fucking games Three, two Brotherhood and Revelations. He also had a PSP one. I don't talk to PSP, I game. But fucker, had you know what I loved? He was Assassin's Creed. You get one game you gun. You done this.

Speaker 1:

Motherfucker's got three main games, psp's, like, just Just keep using them. My favorite one was 2. That's a borderline classic. Rarely does the sequel surpass. If you replay Assassin's Creed 1, it's jank as fuck. It's not a bad game but it's jank.

Speaker 1:

I have one stupid-ass joke that came out of that game because I was a heavy recruiter for that one. Yeah, I would just go around recruiting people because I felt that's where I got most of my fucking money from them doing the missions. I was riding around on a horse and there was this couple sitting there and because I had a bit of stick drift, I think I don't know it could have been on purpose, who knows I walked through the couple to get where I was supposed to go. It happened to be a black guy and a white woman. I was like, well, that's part of history anyway, separate him. Come on.

Speaker 1:

Ezio's the most charismatic of all the assassins. He's charming. He's fun to play with for three games. He's just a fun character. Even in his old age he was, yeah, even in Revelation he was still quirky and fun and most of them I could run through them. Altair, kind of sucked. Ezio's the goat. It's kind of sad that he was the start and didn't get anything else after that.

Speaker 1:

I forgot his name. I forgot his name a little. I like Connor Kenway. He was three. I like Connor a little. I actually like Connor a lot and I like you like Connor more because of the time period. I like Connor a little. I actually like Connor a lot and I like you like Connor more because of the time period. I love the Revolutionary War time period, I do, and it was your introduction to driving boats. I fucked that game for that. No, no, not that. Fuck Black Flag for that. Because I had trouble beating that game, because I never upgraded my boat, because I never thought I needed to. Four, I forget his name. What's his name in 4? God, kenway, connor. Kenway is 3, no, no, 4. I need to know his name. It's going to bother me. I mixed up names. Kenway is 4, it's Kenway. I for some reason had the last name. I didn't have the first. I should have known the first. It was Connor. I should have known, because Edward was a heavy pirate name I loved.

Speaker 1:

I like Bayek too in Origins. I love Bayek too. They've been up and down with their main characters. Oh yeah, that's him. 4, another card characters. Oh yeah, let's see A little early. Four, another card.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I guess I looked towards him for that to see if he was going to give input on that. No, he was like no, it's fine, he has vampires, he has monsters, so he can get them there. He can get them there. Didn't expect that on yours, I'd surprise you expect that on mine. I almost thought it was going to be.

Speaker 1:

I could have put his Little vampire girl on the list and then you would have accepted it. Probably. Serious Police girl, as he called her Police girl. I actually like her a little bit more than Alucard himself, but Alucard is the reason for it all. Alucard is A reason for it all. Alucard's Aura she's an Aura farmer. Aura farmer personified Alucard Dracula, spelled backwards. That was my clue to him as far as who it was when he asked who that was. Spell it backwards. It's fallen a bit, but Hellsing Ultimate is one of my favorites. All right, spell it backwards. It's fallen a bit, but Hellsing Ultimate is one of my favorites. Alright, number three We've talked about Alucard before.

Speaker 1:

I just, like I said, I had a hard time making my list. We referenced this guy without referencing this guy. How the fuck does that make sense? Ito Kyori Butosai, oh, seen this guy. How the fuck does that make sense? Ito Kyori Butosai, oh, when you kept saying Makoto Shishio, it's like, just wait, it's gonna pay off eventually. I'm all about the long con. Oh God, thank you, kenshin.

Speaker 1:

And Two straight top pinss for him. Yeah, good stuff, good stuff. No, the three. The last time he didn't know it all. The last three for the last one of three. He didn't know it all. It was the two that he gave away. He gave away my number two already, oh away. He gave away my number two already. He gave away my number one last time. Oh god, yeah, with Koro Sensei we had three for me, three's Boba Fett, jay's probably like three. Oh, my god, you're really close to tying again.

Speaker 1:

It's Boba Fett, great design, great character, especially in Legends, because Book of Boba Fett was hit or miss with me, like a bentham. That's not the only reason I like his design in Book of Boba Fett, though. Old man, not old man, not that fucking beer guts, that fucking beer. Mandalorian was great where he came out of a ship killing all the stormtroopers. Fabulous Boba Fett.

Speaker 1:

In a way it kind of humanized him a little too much. I don't care if he has a little humanity. I thought you liked the similarities between the story. My humanizing of it was the fact that, oh, I'm going to take over Jabba the Hutt's business without a plan. I'm going to take over Without a plan and I don't know when we'll ever see him again, what we probably won't, unless he's going to appear in Grogu and Mando. Fuck, not. I take it. The movie, mm-hmm. I take it.

Speaker 1:

I can't completely. People like to shred. Book of Boba Fed. I can't really hate it 100% because I love that they gave me Boba versus Cad Bane at the end. I love that. I just don't think Cad Bane's dead. I love that. I just don't think Cad Bane's dead. You're going soft on me, boban. Wow, bam, that came up as you were talking. Oh God were talking. Oh, number three, jay. Number three Spike Spiegel. That's a good one.

Speaker 1:

The entire reason for the Cowboy Bebop show is all of Spike Spiegel's background man, his entire story. Like I would, bebop is like nowhere near my top ten, but that's another one I just appreciate because that, like you know how most people, most normal people Dragonball is what got them into anime. Me it was called Bebop. I think I'm a sucker for the shows with a good soundtrack in the background. Oh, the soft jazz. I don't even like jazz that much because I need lyrics, like Lazarus has that. I have said this a lot. I need lyrics for me to fully vibe with a song. I need lyrics, some sort of lyrics. I need something.

Speaker 1:

I actually didn't hate the live action, even though it was cheated on and canceled. It actually kind of pissed me off that it got. Well, no, I can't say that because, if I'm remembering correctly, as far as everything that was in the show, they kind of did what they could. For what everyone remembers about Cowboy Bebop unless you recently watched it and are an avid and I mean super avid fan and have a, you know, picturesque memory I got the Blu-ray at home. They did everything people would remember. Yep Story-wise Fought the fat guy that fucking kicked Spike's ass the whole fucking time.

Speaker 1:

I believe he had his fight with Vicious at the end. I like Vicious. One thing that excites me, though, about Green Bay is Stephen Bloom being there so I can get a spike picture sign and he can write bang on there for me. I'm never going to remember the pop Stephen Bloom's on my high list of people I want to meet, so I'm going to be in that line. I don't even have a Transformer for him to sign. I don't even have a Transformer for him to sign. I don't have Transformers Prime Starscream for him to sign.

Speaker 1:

Funny thing, not the first line I'm going to, though. That's already reserved for Brittany Karboski Already reserved. Already reserved. That was my three. That's a good one. My number two is quick and simple. Good evening, mr Week, jonathan Week Number two. Damn, that's amazing. We talked John Wick 4 on this podcast. What else do we have to talk about? Number two, all right, two, let's see. I guess number one, no, this is the one I more so associate with mommy who's mommy your? My first thought was Machima, but alright, your. No, mommy your. I always say mommy your because she's a mommy, not legitimately, but she is I do have.

Speaker 1:

One of my honorable mentions was an anime that I said. I said I told you that I was going to watch last night. I finished it Buddy Daddies. Oh God, buddy Daddies, it's just straight up Spy Family meets Gay. No, they're not gay. That's the vibe you got off of it. I'm not arguing it, but they're literally. No, it's not. I've actually watched a bit of it. Yeah, yeah, there's no gay in there. Yeah, okay, it's as gay as Fuck was the Adam Sandler, and I know it's as gay as that. We got to act like it. Except they get, but they do get married for whatever reason. For that one, yeah, I didn't see that one coming, actually, but it kind of fits the plot. For this one, they're just friends that are coexisting together.

Speaker 1:

As a troll, well, you knew your would be on mine. You're like I'm admitting your Yours on Dean's, but Buddy Daddy's was basically just a spy family ripoff. To a degree, your is like the perfect combo of hot, badass, yet adorable. Yours is a. That's why I have you're in that show, by the way. Oh god, which one is it? You can't call it. No, I definitely can. I just wanted you to say it. I don't remember the names like that, unfortunately.

Speaker 1:

Ray is the assassin. Ray, that's his name. R-e-i Uncle Ray, ray, ray, hey, yo, does this shirt make me look gay? No, how about? No, the one that keeps playing video games on and stuff, because that's all he does in life. He's definitely not the other one.

Speaker 1:

The other guy cooks. I cook when I'm alone. I do. Yeah, it's because you're forced. Yeah, I'm not alone Because you prefer going out. Yeah, because I don't. The only thing I'm pretty sure he doesn't do that the typical gamer does is eat more ramen slash chips. No, I can't say that I don't really eat while I game. For example, if I'm playing Stellar Blade, I don't got food. I am standing up. I am in the zone. You gotta be in the zone playing that. It's tough, tough combat. Not really. I don't play that many mind-numbing games that you just kind of sit there. I also don't think, aside from the Pepsi you drink, have a drink of choice. Where you're just sitting there you have like a gallon of it next to you. But again though, like I said, a lot of my games are. Do you want me to take another shot of him now? Oh, great, anytime.

Speaker 1:

Ign panel for Critical Role finished up. They recorded audio for Mighty Nein, seasons 1 and 2, as well as the Legend of Vox Machina, season 4. And there's a non-exandrian video game on the horizon and a hint at a feature length thing as well. He will binge none of those because he's getting another season and a spinoff for Reacher. You beat me to it, god damn it.

Speaker 1:

I was going to say Mighty Nein dropping oh Reacher's up. He's close. But I watched the greatness of Reacher and fucker, no See. Whenever I say Reacher, I think of the damn season one in the prison. Get out of here, fatso. He's mine or your ass will leave out of here in a bucket. Damn it, reacher, damn it, oh Pauly. And yet he won't watch the show that literally has a song about anal beats. He would love that.

Speaker 1:

He saw that scene. I love Scanlan, he saw that scene. I love Scanlan. He saw that scene. I did. He still hasn't. He hasn't gone back to it since Scanlan and Grog. It's literally got almost everything he wants Cartoon style animation, dirty jokes, blood and gore.

Speaker 1:

And dragons. Dragons that's 16th Not as raunchy as I would have liked. Dragons that's 16th Not as raunchy as I would have liked. Yeah, when I really think about no, no, I'm the main women at a party. It's Keyleth.

Speaker 1:

And Is it Vex? Right, vex and Pyke? Oh, yeah, I forget about Pyke. I forgot about Pike. How did you? I forgot Pike? It's honestly, it's honestly the easiest character to forget about because she's technically not a part of the campaign at this point. That's why it's funny. I like Vex, because Vex is probably more my type than Keyleth is Because Keyleth is? Because Keyleth is annoying? Yeah, because Keyleth is annoying, and yet she's arguably one of the strongest characters in the group. Yep, is she the one that turned into a fish and Matt would be like you die? Huh, yes, but that hasn't happened yet.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if they're going to put that in the animation because of where the scene takes place. No, they're just giving her to the elemental pirates, aren't they? No, she turns into animals, but the scene where it takes place, I don't know if they're going to do that. Oh, because that episode is kind of a part one, part two of a certain thing that doesn't need to happen in the show. Oh, yeah, yeah, they're not going to do it.

Speaker 1:

It deals with Pike's family. So I don't know if they're going to delve into Pike's family as much as they did in the ship. Oh yeah, probably not. They could make it a one-off episode. It's literally. I mean, well, actually, no, she does deserve it, considering they were touching on her whole religion aspect and origins. Yeah, but even that's being thrown off compared to where it was. Yes, especially when they went to. Was that fucking hell? Yeah, the night has. They went to hell, man. My last thing about Yor Drunk Yor's trip. Drunk Yor's trip. Okay, you're number two. He said his two, yor was two, yor was two.

Speaker 1:

Soifong, okay, her whole character just yells assassin. You don't see her doing a whole lot of assassinating bleach. Yeah, oh yeah. And her lesbian lover, yodowichi, oh, she got cucked. To it canon, she got cucked. That's canon to me, don't care what I said, she literally got cucked, don't care.

Speaker 1:

And yodowichi, I got a name for all of yodowichi Weech, that's my dark skin. She is Aunt Fong, though. That's my dark skin mommy. That's my dark skin mommy, right there. Well, that's because you have somebody in real life doing the pose for you. Ah, megan, yes, I love you. Yes, and Mirko's my. You wish we could go to MomoCon, don't you, oh God? And Miracle's my muscle mommy. I got names for everyone and they all include mommy, yes, usually Mommy, mommy, mama, mama, damn it. Stewie, get out of here. Mommy, after since she appeared on screen, I liked her. What the whole bee concept stinger.

Speaker 1:

I like her as a character, but I will and this is kind of just me being me. This is non-existent. No tits for you. It's off the table. Huh, off the table. I still like her. I want a statue of her because she's got a nice one which I will get at some point. Bleach is kind of my new thing for a statue. That Yaruichi. I got Rangiku. I'm waiting for a couple more. This iPhone has a nice statue. I do want it. I have a pop. That's a good one. That's an awesome one. That's a good one.

Speaker 1:

You didn't expect anyone on my list because it made you think about it for quite a bit. I don't expect you to put as many anime ones on there. That throws me off a little bit. I don't expect this. I don't expect you to put as many anime ones on there. That throws me off a little bit. I expect a couple, not that many. I expect me to be the. I've had four fun ones.

Speaker 1:

Okay, yeah, there's no hiding my number one. I'm wearing a shirt. It's so obvious when you think about it. Why don't you search assassin list? He pops up. I don't think your shirt fits with you saying he's your number one, though Shh, no one cares. Only a few people care about my number one.

Speaker 1:

Deadpool can't do it. I mean he, I mean his movies are all good, just like Spider-Man. Is that a Ryan Reynolds thing, though? No, I don't think so. They're funny movies and they're entertaining. Ryan Reynolds helps because he's able to deliver lines Spider-Man is by it speaking of, since you brought him up, neil Patrick Harris is taking a shot at it. He's voicing Deadpool in the new VR game. Did you check out that trailer? No, he sounds like he's doing a fucking Ryan Reynolds impersonation.

Speaker 1:

Why did you say Neil Patrick Harris? Now, that line's in my head too Legendary. No, harold and Kumar, I'm assuming they didn't ask Nolan, you gonna leave a mess in the car. No, neil Patrick Harris is gay in real life but in the Harold and Kumar to make fun of that. And she's like aren't you gay? I am gay. Gay for that. Pussy lives in my head, renfri, I'm surprised you don't say that more at work. I am, shit kills me, bro. Oh, fuck you. Does that count as slightly coming out of the closet? Yeah, I mean, I'm gay for that. Oh God, I'm just honestly more disappointed. They just didn't ask Nolan North to do it again.

Speaker 1:

I always remember Maybe he's done doing it or he won't do it. I always remember Deadpool. Yes, he did it once. I always remember Deadpool for the game where you slap over and over His game. Slap. This is for making me love you. I fucked that up the first time, so I had to reload the save just to do it. Slap, slap, slap, slap. Oh god, uno, uno, oh. It shouldn't be a surprise.

Speaker 1:

Akame from Akame Got Killed. Well, she will never be taken off on that. That's one of my favorite animes too, and I say this every time I mention her. I am so vested in her character. I read her whole prequel series. Read Akame Got Killed. Read the sequel series. That got ended too quick. I am so vested in her character. I read her whole prequel series. Read Akame ga Kill. Read the sequel series. I got ended too quick. I am so vested in her fucking character. It's like come on, come on. She's trying to kill her curse. Come on, come on, give me more. Someone tell me to finish her story.

Speaker 1:

And Mashima, I don't know. Writing Akame ga Kill would be a disaster. It'd just turn into friendship and love. That's not what Akamega Kill is. I love Mashima, but that's not what Akamega Kill is. Akamega Kill is also special. This is random, but this is funny.

Speaker 1:

I remember fucking standing in line for some fucking autograph at Amki a couple years ago and I was yapping about with some guy and there's Brock a couple things down. Oh, you like Akamega Kill too. How you got introduced? I just messaged him today because he reacted to Resident Evil 9, because he's a big, he Twitch streams and shit all the time. But yes, oh, I love.

Speaker 1:

She got one of my favorite assassin weapons too Morosame, the cursed sword. One nick and you're dead, akame. I'm surprised, I don't know. Jay could probably see that one coming. I'm not sure about Matt, though.

Speaker 1:

I did send him a gif of Akame. I didn't see it as number one. I didn't see it as number one, you're done. I should have known after a while of it not being coming up. There she is. I love that show so much. It's one of my high recommends.

Speaker 1:

I'm actually surprised you didn't mention her sister somewhere as an honorary mention. Her sister Korome. Korome's, her sister. I don't like Korome as much. Korome's got the sword that controls the dead. I could have put Leone on there, and I love Leone, I really do.

Speaker 1:

She is waifu-wise. She's my favorite from the show. Akame's probably second or so, but I'm so vested in Akame's story. Akame's cool, she got tits. But I knew you weren't going to mention somebody else, though, from what Akame got killed.

Speaker 1:

Akame got killed because you absolutely despise her for killing somebody. Oh, okay, I'm trying to be like who who? Oh okay, I'm like damn, I'm trying to remember all the fucking deaths in that fucking show, because everybody fucking dies. Don't read the manga though. It's just pain and depression. That's all that is should have been advertised. How come a guy kills manga rivals last of us. We're just giving you depression like, oh fuck bro, rivals fucks with my head. Us, we're just giving you depression Like, oh fuck bro, rivaled with Fucks with my head. Oh God, I shouldn't have fell in love with Esdeath, but no, that's another one I really like too. I like that little fucking Dean. You're like you like every female character in every show known to man Pretty close.

Speaker 1:

You have ones that you despise, though, and none of them are Legend of Black Mokka, easy for you. Oh, the one I hate in Thank you for setting that up. He did it himself. I didn't help with that at all. They don't make Akame ga Kill statues. I'd be pissed. I'd have one of Leone Akame and I'd have one of Leone Akame and I'd have one of Esdeth. I'd have them three and that's all I'd need. No, which is no. One of the Akame characters I hate, is one of the fucking main ones.

Speaker 1:

Chelsea. I hate her. She's a hero and I fucking hate her. I'm happy she got her head chopped off and shoved on a pike. You don't kill bulls, bro. Don't do that. Bro was just trying. There you go, I hate her.

Speaker 1:

That's one thing Mr Levi always used to argue with me. He's like well, I know, I hate her. I'm happy she got her head and stuff on a bike. Don't just mean that I argued with you. No, I don't think. Nope, you might have just pissed me off. You know how strong I feel about that. But Brock agrees with me. Okay, number one, I'm a love. You're going to feel fucking odd after talking about a document that got killed like that. Oh great, it's silly. It's silly.

Speaker 1:

Sarah Walker from Chuck. Okay, I see what you're saying. It's completely opposite. Well, yeah, because she doesn't start up. Well, I mean CIA kind of. Do you count CIA operatives as just street assassins? Yeah, we've been trying to kill Fidel Castro for years. While we fail, she did have a stint in a show where she was just a hired assassin. So Chalk is one of my beloved shows.

Speaker 1:

I could rewatch that any fucking time, as you could imagine just coming across a pair of sunglasses that download the entire fucking CIA database and how to fight, and all that in your head and all of a sudden, you just know how to fight and do shit for no reason. You just described the Matrix. You just described the Matrix. Yeah, it's kind of how it works when it's inside one person's head, until like four seasons later where you have two of them or three of them. It kind of went on for a bit. Meh, good stuff.

Speaker 1:

Not one of my honorable mentions was said. Quite surprised, that's kind of good. Well, who did I have? My other one was Wolverine. I didn't feel like that one fit as well. I had Deadshot Deadshot's an honorable mention. I cut him when I started editing the Bride from Kill Bill. Honorable mention, that was one. I was surprised nobody put Honorable mention One of the big ones Elektra.

Speaker 1:

That's usually number one for Marvel. She competes with Black Widow. Elektra. Anton from a movie called no Country for Old. Menavier Bardum, love him so much.

Speaker 1:

And here's one that was funny. I was like I can't get her there because, whatever, rain from Blood Rain, that's Vampire Mommy. I just had her on a list not that long ago so I was like, nah, I can't do it, can't do it, I can't do it. Jay had the different list. I usually do. I can't do it. Jay had the different list. I usually do.

Speaker 1:

Yep, oh man, assassin. I'm surprised at how many options there are. I'm like damn. I've talked about a bunch of these already, seven out of the nine. Sean Wick the only person we hadn't talked about on my list was Hanzo, but Black Cat and Sakamoto have been talked about on this podcast. Everybody else has been on top. We have the random 20-minute anime rant, but it was good because we needed some filler anyway.

Speaker 1:

You know who's listed as an assassin if you go to Wikipedia. You know who gets listed as an assassin if you go to Ranker. What's that? James Bond, darth Vader, mini-me oh God, darth Maul was the only Star Wars one I considered being a Borderlands assassin. Asajj is. Yeah, asajj would have been the easy one to put. You know who I see on the list too T-1000. Yep, terminator Saw that too. Like I love Ben 10, but one that comes up on the list is 6-6. Yeah, there was For Black Widow, melina Vostokoff, their mother, I believe. I'm surprised Jay didn't put Assassin's Creed character on there, or he was like I want to go put Ezio because I knew he's on yours. No, I could have put Connor on there. Or he was like I want to go put Ezio because I knew he's on yours. I could have put Connor on there Again. Them characters are, so Ezio is the obvious choice to use from Assassin's Creed.

Speaker 1:

That new game is so fucking weird. That is a 50-50 game. Either love it or you hate it. That is so funny. For which one? The new one? The new one Shadows or whatever? The new Assassin's Creed? I've heard people that praise it, people that hate it. Nothing good. I heard about that Vicious. You could have said that too.

Speaker 1:

It's a series that kind of lost me because they lost its way. I played one, liked it when it came way. I loved I played one, liked it when it came out. I love the FCO games black flags Um three is a great the revolution and black flag, one of my favorite games ever. That I like origin just because it's Egypt. And then they start kind of you, even though Jay does like odysseys. Odysseys, okay, I don't know why Odyssey shouldn't get shit from people. It was the first game to introduce full-on gods from real mythology, not just Assassin's Creed mythology.

Speaker 1:

Then there's which is the Syndicate, where you gotta protect Karl Marx. Don't bring that up. I don't like doing that. I don't want to do that mission. I wanted to kill him. I wanted to kill him. It literally would not let you. I'm gonna kill him, I'm gonna fail. I'm gonna stop communism before it even begins. Shit. I wish I was streaming at some point of that, because I know there would have been a lot of fucking. Someone else would have came up with the fucking concept of communism. Probably I guarantee it, it wasn't Karl Marx, somebody would have. He's the first to write a full-on book about it, though I think my favorite Fuck you family guy man, ah shit, red x. Oh yeah, dc comics. You remember family guy jay?

Speaker 1:

We now return to the communists. Now I just want fucking peter to fight fucking bob. Oh god, peter to fight fucking Bob, oh God. Centrist, yeah, yeah, I love the continuity where that's Selina and Bruce's kid Slipknot, the band that got killed off just five minutes in David Ayer's side squat. The bad, the bad. Well, here you want a good one. Double may cry Dante, I mean what he's as much as one as any other Demon Hunter game. That's about it, not much else. That's about it, not much else. That's about it. Yeah, we. Django Freeman, alright, I guess that's it. We said what's coming up? Oh no, I didn't even think of that one. As stupid as that is, and it's right in the fucking name. Hit from Dragon Ball Super. Oh God, yeah, that's on the nose. All right, everyone. We went over the next couple episodes. We still got a debate which are going to have episodes or not, but that's about it. We're getting a break next week. Yeah, a break next week. So goodbye everyone. Have a good, safe night Later. Suffer off, oh God.
