SPEAKER_05

Mr. Moneybags. Mr. Moneybags. Hello, all.

SPEAKER_08

Welcome to the Nike Fossville podcast.

SPEAKER_05

Great intro. I buy way too much shit. Content. There you go. There's your context. I waited until it was on. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Kind of a just content filler episode, I guess, because we don't know our all of our big content movies are in summer. So we got to make sure. We need input. Give us shit to do. We need. Because I don't know if we're even going to do one for Scream, and that's the next kind of big one. It's Scream. I don't know what we're going to do for Scream.

SPEAKER_02

It's a rehash of the first Scream movie.

SPEAKER_04

I'm curious. I'm going to watch some reviews when it first I'm curious because I'm expecting it to get kind of bad reviews.

SPEAKER_02

We're interested in the next horror movie we plan on seeing next week. Cycle Killer? Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Fucking bullshit.

SPEAKER_02

Considering who is who's attached to it.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, I. Oh, this looks good. When did this come out? February 20th. It's our Barbarian. It's a Well I think it's at Long Legs, too, or something. Yeah. But that looked very interesting. That's the first time I've seen a trailer for it. That's what pissed me off more about it.

SPEAKER_02

First time that I've seen the trailer for it.

SPEAKER_06

Let's see.

SPEAKER_02

Well, that's the odd thing. I consistently look up new movie trailers and shit too.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that was the big one. Writer of seven, a guy who wrote seven, one of my favorite movies of all time, wrote this. It did kind of have that vibe. What's in the box? Fun fact, Matt told me once he has never seen that movie. I think.

SPEAKER_05

I don't even know which movie you're talking about. Seven. Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, David Fincher.

SPEAKER_02

Yep. Yep. Where they kind of took the story of Dean, what's that killer?

SPEAKER_03

California where he Zodiac? Zodiac.

SPEAKER_05

Kinda. Not really, but kinda. Zodiac has been much of deadly sins. I don't remember.

SPEAKER_02

God, I'm not talking about it. I'm saying they took the killer, took that example of how he kills things. Oh, and then brags to the cops?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, okay, if that were in that regard, yeah. I'm like, I'm not going true crime right now. That's another thing that can be talked about, but I'm not talking about true crime right now.

SPEAKER_02

Anytime they do true crime successful killers, yeah, they're based on something. They're based more on that now.

SPEAKER_04

Say, hey, they got a brag to the cops, or I mean they based Rit Riddler and the Batman on Zodiac, and I didn't really like that, to be honest with you.

SPEAKER_05

I did not really like that.

SPEAKER_04

I liked the movie as a whole, but I didn't really like that. I thought he looked kind of weird. I'm like, are you trying a little too hard?

SPEAKER_02

The only thing that gave him one one up for me is that he wasn't a hush.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, that. Be honest, one of my favorite Riddlers was fucking from Gotham. I liked him as Riddler. I liked fucking amazing. I liked early on Riddler.

SPEAKER_02

His dynamic with the penguin noise over.

Cycle Killer And Seven Vibes

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. That's another show that gets a lot of shit, but I liked it. But we have seen four movies these last couple days. Me and Jay have seen two, and Matt has seen two different ones. So what the fuck? That's four. You wanted to see one of them, Mr. Taxes. I did. I wanted to see it, but I'll have time. I was gonna go. Ryan asked to get tickets if I wanted to go, but I couldn't with Tax. It'd been too weird to fucking plan that shit out. So I was like, eh, I'll figure it out. So I'll watch them sometime. Matt's seen Cold Storage and Have Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die.

SPEAKER_02

Which could tell me about that one.

SPEAKER_04

Good luck, have fun, don't die is one of my YouTubers' favorite movies. Currently sitting number one. It is. That's why I had he adored that movie.

SPEAKER_02

What I remember from the trailer is a human hunting story. How was that?

SPEAKER_04

It's like future human hunting? Human hunting. I don't know what you mean by human hunting.

SPEAKER_03

Let's see a bunch of fucking rich people that watch other humans hunt humans.

SPEAKER_04

That's definitely not that movie. No, I don't know where you're getting that one from. No, I don't.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know what the trailer gave me for vibes.

SPEAKER_04

I'm curious. It's like he's warning people about the end of the world or something. It's like post-pocalyptic. It's groundhog day means Miss Postalyp post apocalyptic. He references Groundhog Day enough, I can make that dance. Okay. Sam Rockwell keeps going back a time because he believes that the people in this diner have the right set of skills, though certain a certain group of people have the right set of skills to save the world tonight.

SPEAKER_02

Yep. How's the time reset?

SPEAKER_04

Him?

SPEAKER_08

It's just him.

SPEAKER_04

He has a machine because he's from the future.

SPEAKER_08

Because he's from the future. Ah, okay. I'm starting to remember more.

Quick Reviews: Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die

SPEAKER_04

The funny part is that the whole concept is good luck, have fun, don't die, and they have domino in the cast. That was that book is her name. Zazie Beats. So we have so we have a confirmed that that is a good that is a very good movie. The story isn't the best. Does Sam Rockwell carry it? Yes, he carries every scene he's in. You just sprinkle in Zazie Beats, Michael Pena, and Haley Lou Richardson.

SPEAKER_05

And the other one he's scene I was curious of too, because I have become a big fan of Joe Curry. I love Joe Curry.

SPEAKER_04

That is the ultimate that is a very B movie. A very B bad or not bad movie. It's not a bad movie. It's not bad, but it it's CGI heavy, very, very gross, and it exists. And it exists. I've become a big and little Liam Neeson's in there too, I think. Yep. Liam Neeson in a B movie. I mean Naked Gun. It's not the first time. No. Naked Gun's almost a B movie. It's an A, it's an A-ranked title, but a B-ranked movie. Like I said, I've become a fan of Joe Curry.

SPEAKER_05

I want to see Joe Curry and more stuff, so it's like I gotta have to put down on my list to go see.

SPEAKER_04

They recently asked him if he'd have any interest in playing uh Harry Osborne. He said, Yeah, where's a script? Let's go. Let's do it. I don't know if it'll ever happen, but can't not till the universe resets.

SPEAKER_05

So what is that one about? Ain't that like aliens or something? Kinda? What? Cold storage? Yeah, no. No. Creatures or something. I didn't I didn't even read. I literally have the poster to go off of what is this about?

SPEAKER_03

That's that's worse than me with a trailer.

SPEAKER_05

And jokery.

SPEAKER_06

That's what I have. What actually it's the rec horror comedy.

SPEAKER_05

Okay. Military base. Okay, I'd look at the Wikipedia.

SPEAKER_04

Whenever the scientific station, science station in space crashed, not all of it crashed into pieces, something survived. Right. And the military finds it, extracts it, puts it in a bunker, and then promptly sells off the bunker 20 years later. And doesn't tell anyone what's in the basement of the swords facility the swords facility. What the fuck?

SPEAKER_03

Sells the bunker. Yeah, we just kind of forgot this was here.

SPEAKER_04

No, they didn't forget it was there. They just didn't tell anyone that it was there, hoping that they wouldn't go look that nobody would delve that far into the basement.

SPEAKER_03

It was a bunch of white people, right? Oh god.

SPEAKER_06

In the government?

SPEAKER_03

No, the people that took over.

SPEAKER_04

No, they don't show the owner. It's just Joe Carey, Love Interest, and then the owner of the building. Or the manager of the building. Nobody owns it. Or they didn't tell anybody to show who anybody who owns it.

SPEAKER_08

I gotta have to watch this one because now the plot's thinning.

SPEAKER_06

It's a B movie. It's a B movie.

SPEAKER_02

It's a B movie. It makes more sense when you put it that way, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Exploding fungus. What do you want? You got a rating?

SPEAKER_02

Don't bring up exploding fungus to me.

SPEAKER_06

No fire involved.

SPEAKER_08

There was no fire involved, it was a knife.

SPEAKER_06

Shut up. They weren't mushroom people. Oh, I don't know. I didn't watch the movie.

SPEAKER_07

Mushroom people.

SPEAKER_06

The organism is a fungus, but they weren't mushroom people. They were more bloaters. Mushroom people.

SPEAKER_04

The fact that mushroom people was said, I got one. I had more flashbacks for a second. Fuck. There's Dark Souls flashbacks.

SPEAKER_05

There's mushrooms that walk around and they punch the shit out of you and they hit like a freight train. Almost one shot you. You gotta be careful with the mushroom people.

SPEAKER_04

They're big fuckers. Like, what the fuck can eat mushroom people? Holy shit, they hit like a truck.

SPEAKER_06

They just punch because they're the size of a truck.

SPEAKER_02

So not I don't know what's worse, randomly running into a kettle pot that tries to kill you because he rolls around. Or a boar. A boar.

SPEAKER_06

I enjoyed them.

SPEAKER_04

I enjoyed them both more than I enjoyed Send help. Really? Send help was horrible to you? I don't know if it was horrible, but surprising. It it had it had a plot error. So it took me out of it. Got really dumb. She crashed it plane. So Matt were really. No, it did it did the ever it did what all survival movies? Like getting trapped somewhere and surviving. It did what all survival movies like to do. Say people are rescuing them and then show no evidence that people are trying to rescue them.

SPEAKER_02

Show no evidence that people are trying to rescue them.

SPEAKER_04

Yes. I suppose this guy was a high representative, a literal billionaire, and nobody ever searches the beach that they're living on. Despite spending weeks on the island and knowing where the crash site is.

SPEAKER_02

They knew where the crash site was?

SPEAKER_04

Yes. Okay, I can't be mad. The black box has been recovered.

SPEAKER_05

I can't be too mad then.

SPEAKER_04

And they go and both times she sees a boat, it's on the same part of the island, but nobody ever searches the beach on the other opposite side.

SPEAKER_06

Did she make any attempts to not be found? Yes. On that section of the island, but not on the beach. And by that, and by that means she hides.

SPEAKER_02

Oh she hides. She didn't like hide anything. He's like, oh, people are here.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

So if any point some dumbass decided to look around on just a little bit, they'd find everything.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, driving around the literal island that's 30 miles away from the crash site. Right.

SPEAKER_02

Hold on, there was somewhere drivable 30 miles away from the crash site.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, she swam the 30 miles from the crashlight too in the movie. Okay, so the plot hole was very was egregious that Matt's like, oh boy, if it's really bad, then I guess. Otherwise it's the Sam Raimi movie in a time. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_05

God, what have we had a whole thing on Bone Temple already?

SPEAKER_04

I don't need to talk about Return of Silent Hill at all. Holy fuck. Not that it was a dumpster fire of trash, but there's some things I liked, but it's just why a video game movie cannot get proper representation unless you're fucking Mario. I told Dean What's wrong with Sonic? What's wrong with Sonic's fine?

SPEAKER_05

Sonic's fine. I forgot Sonic existed for a second there, but Mario. Those are good movies.

SPEAKER_04

I told Dean that basically wrecking crew is just Momo Mamoa and Batista being old. I still had fun with it, but I it's still a fun movie, but it's just them being old. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You know what pisses me off? Until recently, I kept forgetting the first place that I've seen Momoa.

SPEAKER_04

First place?

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, the if mine was probably I saw him on Stargate.

SPEAKER_03

Stargate Atlantis.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. I didn't watch all Stargate Atlantis, but I knew he was on it. I had seen him on it.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, the only Stargate series I did not watch. Because the lighting of the series kind of takes away from it. It's constantly dark. It is a universe.

SPEAKER_04

God, I remember I used to watch I fucked up, but you're gonna be surprised. I used to watch Stargate. I used to. Which one? SG1, Atlantis, or the one where this is probably what took me out. The one where Anubis was in it.

SPEAKER_02

That's SG1.

SPEAKER_04

And I'm like, that's not fuck it. I'm done.

SPEAKER_02

I knew that would piss you off. The fuck is that? Mythology is fucked up.

SPEAKER_04

That's not no, I'm done. They took their own literal takes on mythology. It's not like they were using completely.

SPEAKER_03

The Norse gods were the gray aliens. Or did you you didn't get that far, did you?

SPEAKER_04

No, of course he didn't. I seen Anubis in a hood, and I'm like, and you don't even see his face, and I'm like. I get it. It's mythology. It's where did you come in into this here? It's to do stuff with. I get it. But it's like, oh, and you take away some designs I I view are so sacred.

SPEAKER_02

You know the other part that would fuck you over is that Anubis was evil.

SPEAKER_03

Not evil. He guided the guide the dead. No, I mean he was completely dead. He didn't guide the dead. He killed people.

SPEAKER_05

Oh my god, I didn't expect to have a Stargate there. One of my uh Dracula. I love I actually love that movie quite a bit. That was a very good movie.

SPEAKER_04

That's right now the list goes good luck, have fun, don't die, Bone Temple, Dracula. Dracula above Bone Temple? They're close for me. Dracula, I could see being above Bone Temple, but I can see I'm close with those two. It's still just a love story in the story. As much as the loose interpretation of it for it is, it doesn't. I understand that. I do get that. I gotta remember Jack, my worship for Jack McConnell. Those are gonna be close.

SPEAKER_03

Those are gonna be close. Better than me. This year I only have three movies to go with. Bone Temple, Goat, and Crime 101.

Survival Plot Holes And Send Help

SPEAKER_04

Goat was a very good movie.

SPEAKER_02

That is a very made me realize something.

SPEAKER_04

You're a furry.

SPEAKER_05

Hey, Jet Fillmore, that most. I love Jet Fillmore. Damn it! I'm on a furry, goddammit. She was an aging all-star, man. Matt was like, Yeah, I'm not as big a basketballer. I might be into it. But me just, I adored that movie.

SPEAKER_04

I really the fact that you went to go watch us instead of the all-star festivities. I better keep your tabs on that on Facebook. It was more than a basketball movie, but it made me realize that.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I knew it was as far as inspirational sports movies go, there are very few far in-between released lately. Like in the last 25 years, I cannot remember one that actually liked. Like I like this one.

SPEAKER_04

The curve world.

SPEAKER_01

If I were to actually go back in time to what I can remember through.

SPEAKER_04

That was a documentary, basically, so was probably the Mighty Ducks.

SPEAKER_06

Which is kind of horrible. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, I've seen good sports movies. It's not to say that there aren't good sports movies. I really enjoyed entertainment. It's just I really enjoyed We Are Marshall, so uh this one actually had a lot of relatable scenes in it.

SPEAKER_05

I love it here. I have to comment on this. I love it because it captures basketball culture very much. You know, that's one of my things.

SPEAKER_02

That is something.

SPEAKER_04

You know they they have the hype with the shoes and the flashy clothes, walking to a game, all the little things, all the little things. I'm like, yeah. I'm in the and they they did they redid classic moments, and I love that. Like when Will jumps up on the table and does this, that's LeBron. When he stepped over what was his name? What was his name? They're better not name, not the bear.

SPEAKER_03

Main Main.

SPEAKER_05

When he stepped over Main, I'm like, that's Alan Iverson walking over Tyloo. I'm like, I that they're doing this.

SPEAKER_04

So you're saying it's better than Space Jam 2. Yes.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, way better than Space Jam 2. Wait, way better.

SPEAKER_04

I yeah, I I don't even hate Space Jam 2, but it just it and I don't if people oh you're a LeBron. No, I am not a LeBron hater. I just it's you can't I don't even hate LeBron. You can't what? You can't compare the space the first one. That's one of the it's it's one of the movies that's hard.

SPEAKER_02

It was trying to too much the original Space Jam gave birth to so many furries with Lola Bunny. If it did, and this one took it away.

SPEAKER_06

They've taken that away, or technically.

SPEAKER_04

Changing a shape of a character is kind of and Crime 101 is a very good movie, too.

SPEAKER_05

I don't have a sadly, Return of Silent Hill is the runaway least favorite movie of the year, and I love Silent Hill, but so far, but Crime 101's a fucking great movie, too. No, mine's primate. I'm gonna watch that eventually. That's I should get that on one of my stream and search.

SPEAKER_03

Rabies is your top right now, huh? Rabies is your top?

SPEAKER_04

Bottom.

SPEAKER_03

Bottom? Yeah, bottom. It's mine.

SPEAKER_04

He said his worst least favorite, so it's like right now mine's primate. And you wouldn't even hate that one. You just thought like it's silly fun. It's not it's it's got some gruesome gory kills, but unfortunately, it stopped obeying logic. That is big one. I'm gonna almost rip a girl's leg, bite a bite a girl's leg off, and then she's just gonna bleed for the next five hours, and there's gonna be no repercussions. Matt is very much like my reviewer in that regard. He's very much like him because he reviews mostly horror movies. That's his favorite. He reviews all movies, but horror movies are his favorite thing to review because he's a horror guy. He always says, it's a horror movie, it's a slash movie. I get there's gonna be dumb decisions. I accept that there's gonna be, but I can't forgive really egregious ones that make the thing like the horror. Other things you could have done to this girl other than bite into her. You could have broken her leg and it would have done the same thing.

SPEAKER_01

Biting into her, yeah, that's fine. It's just the amount of blood lost in the scene is probably what tore you away from it.

SPEAKER_04

Well, no, it's not just that. It's like they applied a tourniquet, which is only good for a half hour, and but then she's literally bottom half leg in the pool, bleeding out the entire next night, the rest of the night. And then she can walk fine at the end of the episode. Oh, good lord.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

That's not how that works. Only in a horror movie. Only in a horror movie, yeah. Only in a movie. Honestly, it's not the first time. Funny thing. And it's not like it was an actual tourniquet, it was a hoodie. Oh, good lord. It's like they wrapped a hoodie around.

SPEAKER_03

They just wrapped a hoodie around, they didn't make sure it was pressurized or anything.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, as pressurized as a hoodie can be. I'm gonna tie this knot. Is it tight enough?

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_04

Funny thing, Crime 101 standout to me was it was Barry Keegan. Frickin' Barry Keegan. You just swat him as a joker. I love Barry Keegan. You see him going nusk. Fucking love Barry. I love Chris. I can't forget Chris Emsworth, and I love Chris Emsworth too, I do, but I thought he loved the other. Huh? Halle Berry. I like Halle Berry too. Just it's going off a it was a good story. It's a very good story, actually. Very, very good movie. Very good movie. Long though.

SPEAKER_06

I half thought that they were gonna end up having Halle's character with the cop. Fuck. It Ruffalo?

SPEAKER_04

Ruffalo's. It kind of hinted like that. Working with or love interest? Love interest.

SPEAKER_01

It kind of hinted, but maybe. Because Ruffalo's character goes through a separation with his wife.

SPEAKER_05

I knew that.

SPEAKER_06

And he goes and live on a beach. I'm generally curious of Rai's thoughts on some of these.

SPEAKER_04

Does he have the same issue with Send Help as you? Yeah. Yep.

SPEAKER_02

Makes sense.

Video Game Movies That Miss And Hit

SPEAKER_04

Like when he actually have differing takes. That's it's interesting. He was less uh he was less optimistic for cold storage. And uh it turned out that was correct.

SPEAKER_02

Now that one I still I feel I have to watch just to understand what the hell.

SPEAKER_04

Did Ryan like Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die? Oh, yeah. The only thing cold storage has going for it is that it's got a pretty good soundtrack. Well, that's good, but that moves it can only carry you so far.

SPEAKER_01

That's usually what takes B movies a little bit higher.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. But Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die literally doesn't have any music. I I I I have one literal giant ass question on why they chose what what was the choice here for something, but I won't give into that because it's a nice surprise. I don't know why they chose to do what they did. I don't know how it's supposed to make sense, but it currently exists. You know what one of my since Matt, guys, we're not giving any spoilers. No, you know what one of my biggest head scratchers of the last fucking year or so was from no a couple years. That's in a while ago now, I think. But I want to see this movie with Matt called Silent Night. Bro. Nobody fucking talking that bitch. Aren't you getting average talks? And I'm just sitting here like, is that

SPEAKER_01

Anyone gonna fucking talk? Aren't you getting a sequel to that?

SPEAKER_04

No, I hope not. Silent Night is a perfect. No, we're getting a we're getting a sequel to the Santa movie. We're not getting a sequel to Silent Knight. Everyone hyped up Silent Knight. John Cho Choo, John Cho, returning to America, direct big action movie, me watching it. This kind of sucks. It really was not. I'm like, this ain't doing much different. It's not like Ballerina where every second let's shoot some shit. I understand he needs some story too. He needs some substance, but still, fuck. I didn't care too much about the Silent Knight story either. Yeah, now we're getting a drama with a video game. Yes. Looks bloody. Oh, I and I got a new Silent Hill game? Oh, Silent Hill. Konami, come on. Get some get the game movies going better, man. You're getting games like a motherfucker now. Got another Silent Hill game.

SPEAKER_06

2021? Sound right? Yeah, God. Damn, that was a while ago.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, like fuck!

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that was one of me and Matt one to say. Oh fuck. God damn, that's a that's almost a tie. I don't know. No, that ain't it. It's with Joel Joel Kinneman. From Rick Flag. Yeah, it's got Rick Flag in it. Why? I can't believe it. 2023.

SPEAKER_00

There we go. That's better.

SPEAKER_06

There we go.

SPEAKER_00

That's newer.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Yeah, I recognize it. Yeah, it was yeah, that one.

SPEAKER_04

He's he's like was he deaf? No, he got muted. Oh yeah, he got muted. And he talked. And there's and you don't hear nobody else. No, no, but you don't hear shit. You hear gunshots and soundbacks, but talking, no. Talking's a sin. Only he didn't talk. Everybody else talked. He talked with a little text sometimes. You've seen his text on the screen on his phone. I'm debating now what the best theater theater experience with Matt was. It's between two. It's either Boy Kill's World or anyone but him. And it's not close. It's close. I don't know. And it it oh but Boy Kill's World is only good because we literally closed the theater and they're basically escorting us out. That's the only memorable thing about that situation. What about the cheese grater? That's just the movie itself. You're talking Cinnamon. Yeah. But anyone but you, I thought was gonna just suck, and it turned out not suck, but a not for me movie, and it was an amazing movie. Sydney Sweeney bias, and actually Glenn Powell bias. And Matt's the one that made the joke. Me and Matt made the joke, though. It's like Dean, we're literally.

SPEAKER_02

We kind of made the joke about that. It's like every year he drags one of his friends to see a movie on Valentine's Day.

SPEAKER_04

It's fucking how that works out every all the time. I don't even do it on purpose. It's okay, I've been dealing with these jokes all day because I gave Ryan candy. Oh god. My god. Yeah. Boy kills Roy. I thought we were in trouble or some shit, because there's like three people like standing in there, and I'm like, Did we do something? Or just watching the credits? Then it's all the end of the credits, or like we knew there was an end credits scene. Yeah. And we're like, what's the end credit scene? We're just sitting there. I don't know if we're the only one we might have been the only ones in the city. Yeah, we're the only ones in the theater. Yep.

SPEAKER_03

We don't see these fucking assholes. Why did they actually stay for the end of the credits?

SPEAKER_04

The movie thriller had to play out anyway. No. The funny part was, so we the both of the movies were at Menowney Falls that I saw today.

SPEAKER_08

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04

So Ryan bought the first movie, Theater 12. We go to the theater, watch the movie, then we go, then we walk out of the theater because Huh?

SPEAKER_03

13's next.

SPEAKER_04

No. I'm wondering how much so then we get walk out of the because it's only two o'clock. The next movie's not until 3 40. Yeah. So we go out, go get lunch, come back in. I have the next ticket. Scan it. Theater 12. Same seats. Yes! Because subconsciously, that's where just where we choose to get.

SPEAKER_03

Alright, we want these right here.

SPEAKER_04

Well, we always we're just always in the middle of the thing, so it's not like we're choosing. I somehow managed still to get a seat in between us from the next people next to us. Somehow again, like it was like, ooh, as late as he was able to get these pickets, I still got us a cushion, a courtesy seat. I call that courtesy seat. You lucked out because it's still it's still Valentine's Day and Crime 101 isn't isn't a Valentine's Day movie. You're still doing it.

SPEAKER_02

There's enough fucking couples in this one.

SPEAKER_04

Well, it's still date night. It's the big release date night movie. No. Yes. No. Yes. They told me at Lost World if you go on a one-on-one hangout with the bros, it's a date.

SPEAKER_08

No.

SPEAKER_04

They told me that. I'm telling Jess. He already thinks I'm a whore. It don't fucking matter. You aren't? He's done with me. Yeah, he's that.

SPEAKER_05

It's work talk. I go, I go, best. I go start hitting on him. He's like, oh wait, you're a whore. I don't want nothing to what you like. He's like, it's not wrong.

SPEAKER_01

Ask your buddies at Lost World. They'll say the same thing. They've probably read. I'm gonna ask them.

Sports Films, Space Jam 2, And GOAT

SPEAKER_04

Hey, my friends at working on a whore. Am I a whore? Yes. What? Damn. Ain't even gotta be with you. So we have not had a dud movie. Except for Return of Silent Hill. Not that it was a complete dud, but I didn't want you to.

SPEAKER_06

I haven't had a flight risk yet. No. Or flight risk.

SPEAKER_03

What was wrong with Silent Hill? You being the game fan you are.

SPEAKER_04

And this will be our next segue into Fallout. We got if I had to rank it out of 10, I'd still probably give it like a five. There's a little bit of a generosity because I adore the series so much. At first I didn't like the casting of James, but as the movie went on, I kind of liked his casting as James. Oh, that wasn't a bad. Is James an actual character in the game series? That's the main James Sutherland's the main character of Silent Hill 2. Only Silent Hill 2. Silent Hill 1 and 3 are connected, story-wise. 2 is its own fucking thing. 2 is its own fucking game, its own complete story by itself. It has nothing to do with the gulp in Japan.

SPEAKER_01

What about this new one that's in Japan?

SPEAKER_04

What? F?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

They're taking, they're trying to morph Silent Hill away from the town into a phenomenon, something that happens. They're trying to resident evil it. Yeah. They're trying to make it into something that happens. I can actually appreciate that. A paranormal thing, so they can take it out of the town because they don't want it in the town no more. Silent Hill.

SPEAKER_02

Wasn't the first aspect of it? It was completely psychological, like it was all in your head.

SPEAKER_05

It was a cult that was doing shit with demons and shit in the first one and sacrifices and all that bullshit. And it made the town supernatural.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, was it two that was psychological?

SPEAKER_05

Two was very two.

SPEAKER_04

Two was very psychological too, because it was just a lot of James manifesting shit, manifesting everything. For example, Pyramid Head is his guilt. That is what Pyramid Head is. It's his mind's manifestation of his guilt for killing his wife.

SPEAKER_02

Well, goddammit.

SPEAKER_04

And Pyramid Head is in two fucking scenes. I'm like. For this new movie? Yeah. He's in two scenes. Did he do anything? Yeah, he did his normal Pyramid Head stuff and he looks really good. He did look really good. The monster designs were pretty good. It's almost like they've had years of practice to master his physical effects. He he's in they actually kind of did. I know. He's in the other movies. He's in the first Silent Hill from like 2000. But he should not be because he's strictly for James, no one else. But they put him. He's the fucking mascot in the series, so they gotta put him in everywhere. That's the joke with Hotter. Don't they have night nurses in that one too? That were the nurses? Yeah, they're in there, they were in there, and they look good too. The creatures look good. The creatures look good. Yeah, he'll never see them in Baltimore. Out of hit. What? He won't get to act two. No.

SPEAKER_05

But the CGI was a little wonky at times, but it had a budget of like 20 million. I expected the fucking budget to be wonky. But to be the creature of the CGI to be a little fucking weird.

SPEAKER_04

But they took the care a lot of the characters in Silent Hill. There's Eddie. Eddie had one fucking scene, and he's he's pretty important in the game. He had one scene, they never see him again. They took Angela and like the little girl and all them, they kind of mesh them into one. In the Mary, his wife. And I'm like, they're their fucking own separate characters. What the fuck are you doing? And it was it. They did some, they had some things I like, but they did some very egregious things. I'm like, just adapt the fucking game. Why do you gotta change shit? Just adapt the fucking game. Because they think because nobody wants to see the game. We're gonna see the game play it.

SPEAKER_01

Here's the thing. It hasn't had a remaster at all.

SPEAKER_04

Two? Oh no, Silent 2 just had a phenomenal remaster. It came out last year for PS5, and it was great. It just a complete never mind. Not remaster, remake, complete remake. Remake. Completely remade. And everyone loved it. Well, that's why. Yeah. When did Silent Hill 2's remake come out? I think it was 2025. I'm gonna look now. I'm gonna I would have thought you'd known because those are days you take off of work.

SPEAKER_06

Uh God. 2024. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

A little bit old, but if I show you the fucking you don't remember that one thing?

SPEAKER_05

You've seen that somewhere. It got completely remade.

SPEAKER_04

When was this movie announced? A little bit after the game, around the same time as the game, actually.

SPEAKER_02

Anyone attached from the game studio to the movie?

SPEAKER_04

Some a couple people who did motion capture for the fucking game, but that's nothing. So it's just motion capture. I do not add that at all. So because no one studio was attached. The same guy who directed the first Silent Hill, direct this one too. He came back to direct this. And the movie. He directed the funny thing is Silent Hill, the first movie, and I don't even think it's that bad. If you take the title of Silent Hill off of it, I've had this talk with Savannah at Lawstar, which is a Silent Hill nut too. It's actually a very pretty good horror movie. But you put Silent Hill on it, you got issues because everyone's tearing it apart to this at Silent Hill.

SPEAKER_05

I mean, Revelations is kind of a dumpster fire. I don't even need to talk about that one. And then they had returned. So I'm like. Here's what I gotta say about that.

SPEAKER_02

They need to start creating more horror games like Resident Evil, Silent Hill, things like that, like they do Final Fantasy, where it has the name attached to it to sell the game, give it its own story and elements that match this the content.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

But have it be its own game. I don't care if you change things, but you're gonna make things, you're gonna change things so egregious that hurt the story. Like what the fuck? And again, here look at I'm very concerned. I'm concerned but excited at the same time. I have a Resident Evil movie again this year, later in the year. But from what I heard, and it's Zach Krager doing it. He's a guy that directed weapons and Barbarian to very good movies.

SPEAKER_08

This one's not a test.

Stargate Tangent And TV Nostalgia

SPEAKER_04

So I have a lot of faith. It is, it's it he describes it as an original story that takes place in the world of Resident Evil. It takes place in Raccoon City, and I'm like, oh my god. So we can accept that. Maybe, but it does its own thing. It's gonna be weird for me because I want Leon. I want Jill. I'm not getting any name characters in the movie. You didn't like the last what? At least I fucking seen them. No, oh wait, no. Welcome to Raccoon City. No, fuck that Leon. They made Leon a dingus. I'll never forgive them. And I like that movie too. It was a very good movie. They just tried to do too much with it. No, Matt seen that with us. Yeah, that that's actually something. That was one of our first after-covid movies that we went to theaters for. I remember that. We are not getting a sequel. They tried to smart. I thought it was a pretty good movie, but they tried to smash games one, two, and three in the one fucking movie. And make and still make the movie two hours. I would have accepted three hours. Like, oh my god. Two and a half is probably what I would have been your ideal. But it wouldn't have saved 20 minutes. But it wouldn't have saved Leon.

SPEAKER_02

Three hours and 20 minutes.

SPEAKER_04

No, no, even Matt, not being a big uh gigantic fan of like the games, but even Matt said, God, that Leon is not good. No. That Leon was bad in that movie. I'm like, what the fuck? Considering the only other movie I've really seen him in, he was a high ass per character.

SPEAKER_03

High ass character.

SPEAKER_04

A very big drugie. He was in Zombie Land 2. Old actor. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Oh. That's okay, that's where you're going.

SPEAKER_04

Leon was in one of the Resident Evil movies with Jovovich. He was in like Retribution or something, and it was fine. I'll take that Leon over.

SPEAKER_01

It's like you were trying to lean away from the stuff.

SPEAKER_04

He just looked old as fuck. In retribution. What's called Leon? Retribution? Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

That's in one of them. Old as fuck for the age Leon should be in that movie. Yeah. So he doesn't look anything like he does on this new game cover. No. That's fuck. Well, it's just a fucking trailer, man. He do nothing but aura farming. You don't need this. Bro, Leon, you just gave her your only gun. Oh, you good. That's Leon. He ain't gonna die. That's fine. That poster don't that placement don't matter.

SPEAKER_01

We talked about this in the last podcast.

SPEAKER_04

They ain't gonna kill Capcom don't got the balls to kill Leon. There's no way. There's no way. There'd be a riot. What are you talking about? He's got legacy characters, doesn't he? No.

SPEAKER_01

Leon don't he don't have no one?

SPEAKER_04

Unless he's married to Ada and I don't know about it and has kids with Ada, but I don't even know. I don't think Ada's in the game.

SPEAKER_03

What? She shows up right at the end.

SPEAKER_04

I'll die. Me. I should know. I took took off for the bitch.

SPEAKER_01

Leon Jr. You and Screamo did, I believe.

SPEAKER_04

There's no way. If he's off too, he's getting shit on Monday. Like, oh yeah, you don't you give me shit? You took off too. You're gonna be at the house. Jay's gonna be checking some shit in, Hunter. What Dean's doing? He's playing his fucking game. He's probably been playing that game since fucking two in the morning.

SPEAKER_01

I wouldn't be surprised if you sent me fucking chats. He was like, hey, hey, hey.

SPEAKER_04

Well, now he's he's fucking showing me the game now while I'm at work. I I don't know. Matt's probably looking at it.

SPEAKER_01

He's trying to have me on the phone like last time.

SPEAKER_04

He does not look the age he's supposed to in that movie.

SPEAKER_06

They gave him the outfit, but goddammit. He should be in his 20s. I'm gonna tell you though, 22 at most.

SPEAKER_04

Welcome to Raccoon City. Did give me one it got one whole star point for one line of that movie when they're at the fucking diner. And Barry walks by Jill and he's like, What's that? Jill sandwich me. Hey, didn't they also tease you about giving you tire? Tire? I can't. I don't think tire I yeah, they teased they oh and they teased fucking Wesker at the end too. What is with all these teases? God, you're not even you're lucky you maybe made your money back. Fucking COVID movie. Yeah, he's in he's the actor's almost 40 when he did it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah!

SPEAKER_04

Late 30. Somebody who's in charge of casting for that movie just wasn't thinking. I'm gonna tell you though, I will not be with that movie that Craig's doing for Resident Evil. I will not be surprised if when it's all said and done and shit, I will not be surprised if there's a fucking like cameo of Leon or something at the end. The girl played Ada's older than him, and yet she still looked younger by you just don't age.

SPEAKER_01

You know the sad part is you've heard of the phrase, black don't crack. But what Asian people, what the hell, what phrase do they got?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, they don't age till they're 40, then all of a sudden they look like grandma. Hi grandma.

SPEAKER_03

It's around 50 sometimes.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. You get 50, and it's like young, young, young, yung, young, old.

SPEAKER_02

There's no way between I can't say that too, because a lot of the my favorites in Hollywood still don't look like they fucking aged.

SPEAKER_08

I mean they aged a little bit, but let's see.

SPEAKER_04

I'm not sold on Mir Lajokovich's next movie, by the way. Protector. I'm not sold on it. I'm really not. I abstain, I'm biased. I know you are. I I told I'd go see it. There's is there a release date for that? I don't fucking see a date for that when I was looking on her when I was looking on her Wikipedia.

SPEAKER_06

I might have had that in the uh calendar. I'm gonna go see it.

SPEAKER_03

It's I of course, but it looked kind of cool, but I've got obsession in there.

SPEAKER_05

Oh yes. Oh yes, that's another one of my reviewers' top favorites right there. I gotta see that.

SPEAKER_06

But I do not have protection. 2026. February 20th. What?

SPEAKER_04

I got March 6th on Wikipedia. Would you say? No, that would that is by far funnier, but I got March 6th for Wikipedia on Wikipedia. I'm confused. Whatever. That says March system line, too. Okay, thank God. Okay. Wikipedia says March 6th. No, no, the AI keep me from February 6th. Jay would have threw something.

SPEAKER_01

It would have worked if you took off, because I get off at a decent time. You don't. That works.

Ranking Recent Watches And Year Lists

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but you're not getting two movies in. That's true. For two movies, no.

SPEAKER_06

They try to take our shit away. We keep real riot. They take our early Friday.

SPEAKER_04

Makes no sense. Until until they make you all first diff. Then then then you can't.

SPEAKER_06

Then I don't even care anymore.

SPEAKER_04

Holy fuck. He's gonna be one angry person. It's not like I don't deal with that off of messages anyway.

SPEAKER_01

See, messages and in-person is different though.

SPEAKER_04

I that is not but he can't sense tone over text, and that's the problem. And I've given him shit for that too. It's gotten to the point where I wrote smart ass incoming. Which I love. But I'm fishing for smart ass. But then you take it personally. Because they're funny. Oh my god. Or literally Michael Jordan, and you took everything personally. And I took that personally. Oh, you want to watch a bad Mila Jovovich movie in The Lost Lands with Batista? Oh my god. I never saw it because I thought.

SPEAKER_01

Monster Hunter.

SPEAKER_04

Monster Hunter was actually fine. At least Rathalos comes in there and starts fucking shit up and the movie was bad, but the concept was fine because they've been dealing with portals and Monster Hunter for years. That at least made sense.

SPEAKER_02

The isekai threw me off a little bit.

SPEAKER_04

They called up Mila Jovovich all their military gear from their world. Hey, I can imagine they called her up. Hey, you want to be in another video game movie like Resident Evil? Oh my god, let me see the script. The script has doesn't have that much to do with the games I'm in. And I I've said this. I had to catch Mila Djokovic, Ron Prolman, and Tony John, see what happens. And I fucking adore her Resident Evil movies. I do. You're gonna run fun with them movies. There's so many rumors around about him picking up his Hellboy mantle again. He wants to. I seen a podcast with him. He wanted to do three. He was ready. He said they didn't they didn't give the green light. I was ready. No, instead we got him as a super mutant instead. Yep. I still appreciated it. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_02

So much.

SPEAKER_04

That segues into Fallout because Fallout season two ended. God, that actually worked out good. Speaking of video game series done correctly. I mean, this isn't done correctly. This is its own interpretation. I agree with Matt's point on that because I worship it so much. Matt's like, Dina, they can, it's Fallout. They have so much to work with. They don't have to follow much. They can just well forgetting they're connecting lore that wasn't originally.

SPEAKER_08

Oh.

SPEAKER_04

My boy headed off to Colorado. I heard he is actually going to be the central protagonist of three. You'll see Lucy. You'll see the central protagonist in one and two. Nah, it's Lucy. It's Lucy.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no.

SPEAKER_04

Her dad is the villain. It's Lucy. I tolerate no Lucy slander. Not one bit. I adore that. No Lucy slander.

SPEAKER_02

I wasn't making uh fun of her or anything.

SPEAKER_04

No Lucy Slander. I love Lucy's so innocent, but she learns that, oh, I gotta be tough. I gotta kill things out here. Son of a bit. And Macaulay Culkin. And Macaulay Culkin. As the season ended. Liberty Prime. I hope he comes back. Liberty Prime. Matt even messaged me about Liberty Prime. No, no, no, no. I said that in credit scene. I didn't tell you what it was. Maybe you hadn't watched it. Because they dropped it early. I watched it when I dropped it the last two weeks early. So he was mad at me that I got to watch it first. So mad.

SPEAKER_02

I don't even message him about it anywhere because I just assume he watched it.

SPEAKER_04

Well, I knew he hadn't because I knew he was at work. I'm messaging him while he's at work. No, because it dropped. It dropped early. Fuck. Yeah, and it dropped early. And I was like, what do you mean, end credit scene? Then I go home and I watch it. When it drops at 8 o'clock, I know where he is. Unless I called in, but I don't do that. On a Tuesday, on a Tuesday night at 8 o'clock, I know where he is. I came home and watched it off for the movie. Me, I might have at that time I might have critical roll on in the background. Loki. No, we're not talking. That's at enough fucking spotlight the last couple episodes. But Matt Matt, we found out God damn it. We found Matt's script in the He doesn't like mushrooms.

SPEAKER_06

I still gotta watch the most recent one.

SPEAKER_04

But now I want Brennan to sick myconoids on him. I don't know where the myconoids would be in this block. I need to tell Jayless. After I'll bring up the my one critical role. Marisha Ray has arguably my favorite line ever uttered in Crittle Roll. I almost fell over. That's mainly because he hasn't listened to Jester in season two. They're having a conversation. She's playing the Marisha Ray's playing the dwarf, Murray with big old tits and shit.

SPEAKER_05

They're having a conversation and she's like, oh, I have more experience eating ass than kissing it. And I'm like, I would clap. I was done. I'm like, oh no. So okay, so Matt's like, oh no, Dean.

SPEAKER_01

Jester Jester's gonna have she's got a platform.

SPEAKER_05

Don't worry, Dean. Jester's gonna have more lines in season two.

SPEAKER_04

No, campaign two Jester was the most abrupt thing. You don't have not in Jester's detective agency yet.

Fallout Season Two Breakdown And Lore

SPEAKER_03

That'll be the but Jester's Detective Agency.

SPEAKER_04

Not in Jester's Detective Agency. I love on it. They did they did Death Claws very good justice in there. Oh look at Death Claws, look at them. There's just a hint of something knowing they're not real and like you can tell they're CGI. It wasn't bad CGI. It wasn't bad, but just you can't just the plain yellow background of the desert was set something aside. But other than that, you've seen they CGI and practice. No. No, Dean. The worst thing about all that is like. Yeah, there's no way you're taking down that many Death Claws and Power Armor. I'm sorry. Yeah, that's until NCR showed up. And I absolutely love seeing the classic suit. I'm like, there's the classic suit. Then they all walk in, like, there's the NCR. I think then season three is gonna have a lot to do with the Brotherhood. Are basically gonna go to a civil war now. They already are. And the Enclave was finally revealed to be the ones behind the scenes. I'm like, thank you, there's the Enclaves. I want to see their power armor. I know they got it. Yes. Wasn't most of that revealed in four? Enclave were big in three. That's where I got their armor. Yeah, no. They don't really delve into four. The synths were the big thing in four. Yeah. I forgot what their organization called.

SPEAKER_02

Who did his son John work for then?

SPEAKER_04

It's not the Enclave, though. They didn't call it the Enclave. I know what you're talking about. The synths were the big things for four.

SPEAKER_02

Son of a bitch.

SPEAKER_05

The Enclave did not have much of a presence in New Vegas, if all, if I remember right. Remember, those are two games I played.

SPEAKER_06

I think that's why everyone loves New Vegas so much, because it it's its own thing that. Then again, I can't. I'm trying to remember.

SPEAKER_04

I don't know. Because I religiously played three and Vegas. New Vegas. The Institute. Yeah. Okay, that sounds familiar enough. Even that sounds familiar. I barely played four. That sounds familiar.

SPEAKER_02

It's probably an offshoot of the Enclave.

SPEAKER_04

Kind of. I mean, it's different parts of the country.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I think East Coast versus West Coast. Here we go.

SPEAKER_06

Pretty much.

SPEAKER_01

You know what a thing that's What about Canada?

SPEAKER_06

China.

SPEAKER_04

I think three. We haven't had a foreign game.

SPEAKER_02

No, we haven't. People actually do ask for that, but we're not going to get one.

SPEAKER_04

No. I think three. You know why I think I'm so because of Urk. Three and New Vegas are very close, but in terms of location, three is still goaded to me because I love exploring DC and the wasteland and seeing all the fucking monuments and going to visit all them and shit. Three is technically closer to four versus Vegas is Vegas. Vegas is Vegas. Where did four took place? That was on the Yeah, Boston. Boston. Okay. Now, if it was like New York or something, shit, I've probably been in that motherfucker. 76 the one that took place in the Appalachians? I don't know. I never dealt into 76. I think so. I think Jay's right, but I know because people ridiculed that game was terrible every year.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't like the game itself, but I did like the location.

SPEAKER_04

Appalachiasis is one of the most interesting places in America. The funny thing is, favorite fallout locations would be Capital Wasteland from three.

SPEAKER_05

New Vegas is actually probably my third favorite location. There is a DLC location that beats New Vegas to me. The pit. Because it's Pittsburgh. I love that. I love that DLC. Great goated DLC.

SPEAKER_04

But I'm curious though. I like I said, Prime's been doing really good with all their shows. Minus Rings of Power.

SPEAKER_02

You had him look up for a second.

SPEAKER_04

Because he was about, what? No. No. You're wrong even in your statement, anyway.

SPEAKER_06

Reacher. Fallout. Good stuff. I named two.

SPEAKER_03

There's more. There's more.

SPEAKER_04

Box Pocket are ruining all their fantasy contents. Because Wheel of Time is also pretty bad, too.

SPEAKER_02

I don't even think he would delve into that.

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_01

Well, to be fair, you've knocked that one so much, you've given him reason for it. And yet they keep producing it.

SPEAKER_08

One moment.

SPEAKER_04

You can keep talking. I gotta Well Well, I don't know. It's hard to say. Prime has three very goaded things that I love well, four technically. Reacher, Fallout, Vox Machina. And I wouldn't even categorize Vox Machina. 99. You would? But that's not an Amazon product. That's released on Amazon because That's a deal. Yeah. We'll release it. I guess. Because Amazon's owned by Twitch, which is as far as fantasy shows go.

SPEAKER_02

This pisses me off because I've never heard of Daily Wire plus. Okay. Pendragon Cycle, Rise of Merlin.

SPEAKER_01

That sounds like trailers for it and all that. It looks actually really nice.

SPEAKER_04

It does. That sounds like some B movie shit, bro. That sounded like if anything, Amazon's. Just because of the disservice he said. What the fuck is that? Holy shit. If anything, if Amazon look it up on your own. You might actually Daily Wire Plus? What the fuck? I've never heard of it. But I've seen trailers where it is like, God damn it. Amazon's nailing its three Musketeers content. What? They released a show years ago of the Three Musketeers. Now each basically Musketeers getting its own movie.

SPEAKER_01

I do remember that one.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. That one just came out.

SPEAKER_01

Sure.

SPEAKER_04

They're releasing a decent amount of Three Musketeers content, and so far it's been decent. They technically gave you a super mutant, but that wasn't a full reveal of a super mutant. You seen his face? That's it, so they're saving it. I'm like, you still didn't give us a full super mutant look. They don't fully have that CGI worked out yet.

SPEAKER_01

Nope. We have our concept. We know what we want to do, but we're gonna tease them with it anyway.

SPEAKER_04

I need next next. Super mutants or deaf claws? Deaf claws. Okay. I need to see a fat man and a mini nuke. I need to see it. We got the punch. I got the power fist. Oh, I don't think you're gonna see little boy or big man. I need fat man. Need it! I need it, need a mini nuke. They gotta do mini nukes at some point.

SPEAKER_03

They kind of do.

SPEAKER_04

I've seen too many mods of people firing automatic mini nukes had me dead. What the fuck, Matt? Why are you throwing dead in that bitches? Oh god. I got a big rad scorpion finally. Like, oh, there's the big one. Rad roaches cause nothing but havoc. That's a colony of rad roaches. They do nothing but cause havoc. As they're supposed to. Killing everybody but Norm and the girl.

SPEAKER_02

Hold on. One, two, three, four. How many ways have we split our story now? What? The fallout show. It's like six different ways now, right?

SPEAKER_04

Oh, we talked about Bosi, we have Norm's got his own story. Well, they call off our dads, so that one's gone. Yeah. So it's now Ghoul, Lucy, and Maximus. Maximus. They're kind of brother. Norm. Norm. Ghoul. He said Ghoul already.

SPEAKER_02

They also have fuck, what is her name in Oh, what's her name in the vault?

SPEAKER_04

Oh, yeah. That might converge when Norm goes back. Yeah. Yeah. But there are people theorizing that Norm might not might not might be synth or might not be human or some shit because the roaches seem to ignore him. So I'm wondering. I mean, we I I don't even know who who Lucy's mom is at this point. Right. Okie dokie.

Deathclaws, Power Armor, And What’s Next

SPEAKER_01

I was trying to think of who that would be because it's definitely not the first wife.

SPEAKER_03

As I'm starting to call her now.

SPEAKER_04

I'm actually excited to see Colorado because I'm like, ooh, I don't think we've seen that in Fallout games. I'm interested. That's different. Actually, I don't think we've seen mutated horses. We got Brahma Bulls.

SPEAKER_02

And actually, if they do it next season, is probably we're gonna we're gonna see centaurs. Oh, good lord.

SPEAKER_04

Well, that's what everybody thinks that Thaddeus is gonna do. I've seen, I've watched a couple that say he's not.

SPEAKER_05

I've had a lot of people say he's not. They're like, that's not a centaur. Like the real fallout nuts on YouTube fucking go, no, he's not. No, he's not. Like, well, y'all they're fucking expert.

SPEAKER_04

He's definitely not a ghoul. That's all we really know he isn't. Yeah. Fucking ghouls.

SPEAKER_05

Got plenty of ghouls.

SPEAKER_01

He's a real interesting guy. Who he is on the show is exactly who he is in real life.

SPEAKER_06

He's all over TikTok. I thought that was so bogus as hell when the fucking community went in there fucking and started betting on him to die.

SPEAKER_04

He's gonna die. Then the comment, you know, if he dies, we're all next. 20 bucks. 20 caps. We're all next. I thought there's only a couple death claws. They just kept coming like collin. Oh my god. Then the other one's eating the dead one. Jesus Christ. Like Matt said.

SPEAKER_02

I was actually waiting for him to be one of the Super ones where they talked.

SPEAKER_05

Deathclaw or Super Moons? Who's next? Death Claw's the first. Then we'll do Super Moons. Because everyone was wanting Deathclaws. It's the most popular thing in Fallout all the time. And what's gonna happen to uh our ghoul?

SPEAKER_02

Because he had the fucking thing put in his chest. That healed them. I know that healed him. Doesn't something happen to ghouls in-game when they have a certain amount of radiation given to him?

SPEAKER_04

I mean, he's already on drugs to stimulate, to turn it into a full-on ghoul anyway. Yeah, yeah. I uh the funny thing though, as much as I love Lucy, I think Ghoul's story is the most compelling. By a little bit, by slightly, but I think it's maybe meant to be that way.

SPEAKER_02

I don't think that's because of Walter.

SPEAKER_04

That's my motherfucker. You know, you know, you know the first fucking show I seen him in? He was in Sons of Anarchy. He played a tranny, played a transvestite, was fucking great. He was he what? No, I didn't watch the show, but uh somehow fits. First thing I think I saw him was Predators.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, yeah. Kind of makes me want to look it up to see what he's all done into.

SPEAKER_06

His biggest things were like justified. Where he's a main basically a main side character in that show. He was in Maze Runner. Playing a ghoul. Venus Van Down is Walton Goggin.

SPEAKER_04

That was him and Sun that was him and Sons of Anarchy. He was a pretty big part of the show too, but fuck.

SPEAKER_05

Oh Walton Goggie, that's that's range. That's range right there. But no, I'm like I said, I'm curious for three. I've probably gotta wait a little bit. Follow-up season two came out pretty quick after one. So I don't know. Probably gonna have to wait now. That's kind of how shit goes. After season three, you gotta after season two, you gotta wait. That's how anime goes. Season two, gotta wait for three.

SPEAKER_06

Two comes out quick, then three, you gotta wait. Oh my god. I'm on Walter Gallagher's uh He's been in a lot of shit.

SPEAKER_03

I'm just trying to determine whether or not it was Major League.

SPEAKER_06

God damn it. Oh, did you know Wesley Snipes is slow? What the f like physically, he's slow.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't know. Oh, okay. The first thing I seen them in and I didn't even recognize his ass. The next crowd a kid.

SPEAKER_03

That's Charlie. Oh my god. Hillary Swank. Oh god Then it was Major League. Back to Niners.

SPEAKER_08

I never saw back to the Miners.

SPEAKER_04

That's one of them ones where it's a shame they made sequels because the first one was. No, two was fine. Two was fine. It's like fine. It wasn't as good as one, but two was fine. See, there's some sports movies that are mentionables.

SPEAKER_06

It's met it's just legendary. That's my mother.

SPEAKER_05

You know, see, Matt would be better with names for now. I have not seen it.

SPEAKER_04

It's been probably a year since I rewatched that. One of my favorite guys was the fucking voodoo guy who was doing rituals in his lacquer. Serrano. Yep, sir. He wants to sacrifice a chicken. I'll work on it. I'll work on it. There's an online petition that an announcer started that uh he wants to get rid of the Mendoza line statement. You know what the Mendoza line is?

SPEAKER_08

I cannot remember.

SPEAKER_04

A favorite of all-star player like batted 200 in a season, and they just started calling it the Mendoza line. But they want to change it to the Euchre line because Mendoza only hit 200. Well his career batting average isn't 200. It's actually relatively decent. It was just batted 200 during the season. Euchre's career batting line is actually 200. When Euchre's popular enough, it's like, why didn't you just call it the You just call it the Euchre? Baseball. Oh my god. I could totally see him editing that. I'm a little m I'm I'm a little mad at the Brewers right now. I'm a little mad at them.

SPEAKER_06

Why?

Locations We Want In Fallout And DLC Love

SPEAKER_04

It's not hard. I'm still mad they got rid of Peralta. They kept Contreras, though. For one matter one fucking year. What do you say? Not gonna matter. There's going to be a strike next year. There's no way they're solving this.

SPEAKER_01

As a Brewers fan, it's not hard to be mad. I'm actually look it's looking up a little bit because in my lifetime, how many times it come close just to fall?

SPEAKER_04

I have a glimmer of hope for my box, so I'm I'm I'm living on that right now because of Cam Thomas. I'm living on that. Because Giannis looked happy, and I'm like, oh, you gotta sign that supermax. He might.

SPEAKER_01

I'm just appreciating Giannis sticking around.

SPEAKER_04

I don't. If you want me to be honest, I don't think he's leaving. I think he's gonna sign a supermax. That's the media trying to do it. Signing the signing the contract doesn't mean shit. He's getting paid wherever he goes. Yeah, yeah. The signing of the contract does nothing. It's whether or not the Bucks make a move this offseason. He likes Cam John to buy anything. I think he because he doesn't do himself any favors with the media because he doesn't really say nothing cut and dry. Giannis speaks in code sometimes. He I don't think he in his heart, he don't want to go nowhere. But he there's a part of him that wants to win. He wants to stay here, but he wants to be competitive.

SPEAKER_01

He don't want to be knows what he wants. It's whether or not he can get it.

SPEAKER_04

And needs another player beside him, because obviously Turner's not a two. Hopefully it's Cam. We'll see. Cam Tom has been looking good, but again, Cam isn't a two.

SPEAKER_06

He's been doing really good, though. The best six. He's been doing okay, but no, they might I thought it was something ironic or something, the way he looked. I was like, what? Is it ironic?

SPEAKER_03

Well, you never know when something comes up on a phone. It's like, what is it? It's like us staring the movie. Grandma's gone. What the fuck is grandma calling for?

SPEAKER_06

No, what the fuck going on? Oh god. Thought it was an emergency. What's going on? My coworker's giving his reviews. He saw four movies in the last 24 hours. Damn. We gotta step our game up.

SPEAKER_04

I'm I'm giving him shit because he called cold sorts coke s coke storage. Hey, I gotta watch this. Did he call it cold sore? No, no, no, it's coke storage. And my response was ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, coke storage.

SPEAKER_01

Curious what four movies he's seen. Fuck off, because that's gonna be a movie.

SPEAKER_04

I'm curious what I got a I got a movie to pitch to both of you because I saw screenshots of a new movie coming out either end of this year or next year. Okay. Coke storage, fun, Worthering Heights. Never read the book, so I was a little annoyed with the ending. I don't know. Oh, we've seen Wathering Heights. The fuck. Good luck, have fun, don't die. Fun, Crime 101, really fucking enjoyed it. Tomorrow, Scarlet. Because the anime movie came out.

SPEAKER_06

Does he what does he do? Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_04

He can see four free movies a week. Oh, I'm like because of AMC.

SPEAKER_06

Oh.

SPEAKER_04

That's their deal. And we gave him shit for it because they just realized that he hadn't been getting messages for his rewards that he was getting on the system. So he's got$250 worth of rewards to use. Oh, okay, that makes sense. Wathering hot, I will sit through it because it's Margaret Robbie, so I'm gonna sit through it at some point. I will I might end up liking it. Who knows? But the only takeaway you're gonna get from that movie is how to make bread.

SPEAKER_03

Huh? It's the only scene I remember.

SPEAKER_06

I'm a trailer. But King could learn how to cook.

SPEAKER_04

I can if I have to, but I don't want to because no one knows how to make burners. Oh, I make good burgers. I make good burgers.

SPEAKER_06

He knows how to work with meat. That does. But touche.

unknown

Touche.

SPEAKER_04

Thanks for that setup, Jay.

SPEAKER_01

I don't want to say the thing that popped into my head first, but alright, it's not hard.

SPEAKER_06

Could be.

SPEAKER_04

No, you don't want that. Mean Buns, what do you think he works with so well? Well, all the talk about Margaret Ravi, but Jacob Araldi's in it too.

SPEAKER_05

And I like him too. I like him a lot too. Well, that Frank is dying, for fuck's sake.

SPEAKER_04

That's still a movie, Jason.

SPEAKER_05

I still gotta watch that.

SPEAKER_04

Apparently, you can if we we can run out of theater and watch it because Marcus is doing the Academy Awards stuff, and it's gotten nominated for an award, so you can request it at a theater. It didn't get Best Picture, I don't think. It's just got an award. I mean, I'm just fucking monster movies coming back. I mean, that's look that Frankenstein was phenomenal. I loved it. Dracula was pretty good. The French, the one we just seen. The mummy movie again?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. A different type.

Prime Video Wins And Misses

SPEAKER_04

A mummy movie's coming, but it's getting nothing, but no one seems to care. Not because there is a mummy movie coming out, but it got announced that Brennan Fraser is gonna come back. The mummy, the real mummy's back, so no one cares about the other one. No, I saw screenshots for a so in the realm of cocaine bear. Oh god. It doesn't mean it's associated with the cocaine bear, but that realm of movie. I think it's hippos in Louisiana. Oh, for God's sake. And the movie is called Hungry, so we're getting a hungry, hungry hippo's movie.

SPEAKER_08

I'm not mad at it.

SPEAKER_03

But is it in the same range that they're going psycho because they're hopped up on cokers?

SPEAKER_04

I don't know, I got no context for it. They're hungry. That's all I got. The movie's called hungry. So maybe they're hopped up on weed and just have the mungeys.

SPEAKER_06

Don't ask how I know this. I watch too much random shit. Oh my god. It does, however, put them to sleep.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my god. Oh yeah, we'll see. God, that was I I've never talked about movies that fucking much. We talked, we mentioned all of them. Talked about one movie. We talked about a shit ton. Talked about four plus a show. I was worried about not having content, but yet we got mentioned every movie we seen because it was all different ones. And yet we have an anime top ten.

SPEAKER_01

I asked him how he came up with the top ten.

SPEAKER_04

What? We stopped thinking. He said it was too hard. It hasn't. The most anime we've talked about is Scarlet. And that's because I brought it up. And I think I was the only one in the group that wanted to see it at all. I mean, I wouldn't have argued to see it.

SPEAKER_01

It's still I just call it-based one that would have, because you do like fantasy movies.

SPEAKER_04

I just called it Joda Hart, because that's basically what the idea is.

SPEAKER_01

I like the Ghibli, you know, style movies. I am a big fan of bringing animated movies back, you know, Titan AE, shit, you know, shit like that. Stuff that has a story and isn't always geared towards kids.

SPEAKER_05

Cost too much money.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Spirit away my shit.

SPEAKER_08

Doesn't always have to be Japan that releases that stuff, though.

SPEAKER_01

That that's or France, I'm guessing. I don't I actually I don't know where this one came from.

SPEAKER_04

I'm getting the one thing about anime though, all my goats are back. I'm watching all my goats. They're all back at the same time. You already watched goat. Damn it. It's kinda true.

SPEAKER_06

It's kind of true. It's kind of true. I'm trying to think in I'm trying to think of a new one. I like Sense to be a hero more and more every week. That one's just that one's dubbed every right away, too. Like, what the fuck? Yeah, they just gave you two episodes of free run.

SPEAKER_04

Free run!

SPEAKER_05

I thought free run. I did not get a chance to get to because I got a little backed up. I was doing something else in my episodes. I got four episodes to watch tomorrow, or maybe when I get home. Four episodes of what? Sentence to be a hero at a new one. I gotta watch.

SPEAKER_08

I'm caught up.

SPEAKER_05

I gotta watch the new free run. And I seen it. French Hero let me know this time. Was there another one? I think Fire Force. It might have been Firefox. Probably Firefox. It's probably Fire Force. That's dubbed the same day too. Jutsukais and I watched. I do watch that one, right? Usually day of.

SPEAKER_04

The only one I'm confused is how it's getting dubbed the same day is Kanye isn't scary. That was the only one I was watching. Same day dub like Yeah. How did that one get the justification to get a same day to? That's same day dubbed this one. You still said try that one, Dean.

SPEAKER_05

Try it. You might get kicked out of that one, so I'm gonna go try it.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, now there's another twist.

SPEAKER_05

Oh no. Yeah, it was Fire Force. Oh, and Hell's Paradise. I gotta watch too. I gotta watch after I get doubled up.

SPEAKER_03

That's interesting as hell.

SPEAKER_06

What? Toho is attached to Scarlet.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

That means it's technically the same universe as Godzilla.

SPEAKER_03

Because Toho likes to do this thing where they have their own multiverse, but it's technically only attached to like the internet, to where they release toys and stuff like that. Small animations.

SPEAKER_05

I have I have been I god. I can't remember if Matt watched it or not. He probably did. Did you Matt? Did you try Dead Account?

SPEAKER_04

Or you said you're waiting? I couldn't get into it on the first episode, so I gotta wait. It's not I I I enjoy it because it's different. It's very different. I like the thing with the phones. So that's the one I'm enjoying. The dub voice are taking me a little bit to get used to because it's a bunch of new people. But you'll find somebody you like. You probably already have one. I like it.

SPEAKER_05

I like the concept. I I like the main character. He's pretty he's fine. Other than that.

SPEAKER_06

A new Trigon series came out too. Trigun Stargate. They brought my girl back.

SPEAKER_02

Trigun. Uh because everybody complained about the old phobie that was hanging around. It's like, who the fuck is this? That's not who it's supposed to be.

SPEAKER_07

Oh god.

SPEAKER_06

Gosh, my family started and ended quick as a bitch. That is something. That's something. Oi yo yo. My free random juju guys are gonna be on a break next week, so they're gonna stop.

SPEAKER_05

They're gonna have a recap episode. Shit. Like, no. Unbelievable.

SPEAKER_04

Unfucking belief along.

SPEAKER_05

Oh yo yo.

SPEAKER_04

So no elf for you.

SPEAKER_05

No elf for me. No elf. Matt said I got something to look forward to, a date episode. That's like, yeah, Steen, you get to look forward to that.

SPEAKER_04

That's the next episode. They just dropped two and three, so four is the update episode.

SPEAKER_03

Date episode. Who's going on a date?

SPEAKER_04

Stark and Stark and Fern. Yeah. But you get a flashback to Free Ren and Kimmel.

SPEAKER_03

Me. Himmel tries to ask her out. She goes.

SPEAKER_04

Trying to find a cat find a lost cat, and that's just date night. Free run doesn't know what's going on. Himmel, why are we doing this?

Anime Wave: Seasonal Dubs And Must‑Watch Titles

SPEAKER_02

It's just another side mission.

SPEAKER_04

I like the first episode though, because they learn to run. Sometimes run. Sometimes run. My favorite part of Freerun is like that. Fern Stark just can't understand how Freerin can take so much time and not understand. Not even just because of her elven heritage and not understanding time. That's because he her Himmel's party just took forever to do anything. I've had bad teachers. Bad teachers. And I'm the worst of them all. I'm actually it's this year sometime, and I'm very excited for the next Meshuko Tensai season because I'm like, yes, let's go, let's go, let's go. I'm just wondering if they're gonna do like the episode zero. Yeah. Like they did with uh Sylphie. Yeah. Where it showed what happened to her after the chain. Yeah. After the disturbance. Give the give the episode to Eris because she does have a decent chunk of episode that you need to do to show what she's been doing the entire time. Yeah, yeah. I know she's been training with Glen for the most part, but no, it's not Golane. She's at the sword, she's at the Sword Kings. Yep. Dojo, basically. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Because you're gonna get the tie-in because the do you remember when Rudius was at school and everybody was challenging to marry Linny and Persina?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, I think so.

SPEAKER_04

The first person's butt that he kicked had a protege that was a human swordsman.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

She knows Eric's. Okay, that's a that'll be a good connect.

SPEAKER_05

That'd be a good connect point. Good connect point.

SPEAKER_04

Like I said, it'll propel Mashuko Tensai up. I do like it. I don't necessarily love it yet, but I really like it, so that'll really propel that back.

SPEAKER_05

That's a lot of potential. A lot of potential.

SPEAKER_04

A lot of potential for that one. But then there's there's probably more you're gonna get the best fight probably in the series. Yay. To start. What's that? Verdius.

SPEAKER_05

Was is Or is it Orstead? Orsted. Orsted. Oh yeah, Orstead, my who I I've seen him in one scene, and I'm like, that's gonna be my favorite character. He's just a big that's a dragon guy. That's my boy. Oh my god. Other than that, that's it. I'm waiting for other stuff to come up. I want another season of Sakamoto, Dave. But I gotta wait a little bit for that. They confirmed other season, though. I gotta wait a little bit.

SPEAKER_04

You're gonna get live action Sakamoto before you get any more Sakamoto. No, no, yeah.

SPEAKER_08

It's not looking that bad.

SPEAKER_04

They're learning their lessons through One Piece?

SPEAKER_08

No, okay. This is Japanese made, though.

SPEAKER_04

That's speaking of- I think everybody's learning their lessons through. Speaking of, that One Piece live action is causing One Piece to boom in the States. It is something. Because I have never seen One Piece do so well in the States.

SPEAKER_05

That live action is causing it to boom. Which I actually really like the live action. I don't say that much because usually live action animation is terrible. I don't like it. But I like it.

SPEAKER_02

Is that something that happens when you actually consult the artist?

SPEAKER_05

I enjoyed One Piece. I didn't I didn't think Cowboy Bebop was that bad, but a lot of people hated it, so it didn't stray that far from what it was.

SPEAKER_08

I just don't think people were happy with the looks.

SPEAKER_01

I thought Cho was a very good spike. He was great. He was actually one of the better parts.

SPEAKER_05

I agree with that.

SPEAKER_08

They just always We got the dog, but it was too little too late. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Bang.

SPEAKER_08

I mean And it? I forget what the hell her name is. Ed?

SPEAKER_06

Ed? Ed. I didn't watch it.

SPEAKER_03

It didn't really Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So that was.

SPEAKER_02

That's the problem. The only thing I actually remember about the live action cowboy Bebop is Cho. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I and that's mainly because they changed up the female character.

SPEAKER_06

God damn it. Faye Faye. Faye, yeah. They changed her up. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I'm even excited for the next Avatar season, even though there's a lot that's getting flack because they are just mushing that so in the one they are rushing that so bad. While they're having a Stranger Things issue. Our characters are aging. Faster than we can keep up with it.

SPEAKER_01

Holy shit, he looked 10, 12 years old in the first season. Now he looks 15, 16.

SPEAKER_04

That's that's not as big a draft to go. It's looking like he's a young he's looking like 18 almost because of the height change. Yeah. That's the problem.

SPEAKER_01

You're Japanese, why are you growing so much?

SPEAKER_05

Well, Pop's gonna be it, and Pop's the bam baby. So I've pretty we'll probably be like, oh my god, we get Pops. Which is cool, which is cool.

SPEAKER_08

I I was kinda hoping they would do King Boomy, but I don't think they will.

SPEAKER_06

Wasn't Boomy in the first season? I'm trying to remember. He's a part of the whole Earth chapter. Oh yeah. Remember how they labeled the chapters you had water, the start, then they did earth, then it was air? Yeah, I think so. I think fire was last. Then fire was last. Yeah. Fire was last. Fire was last. But again, I guess that's- No, I don't think that's how it was. No, I don't think that's how it was, because they followed the whole avatar cycle.

SPEAKER_05

But again, there's they're scrunching it in the but again, like you said, you run into that aging problem, then it's like, oh no. Everybody looks everyone looks too old. Everyone looks too old now. Now what are we gonna do? We gotta rush it. We gotta rush everything. Rush, rush, rush.

SPEAKER_01

Let's see. I fucking hate you, James Cameron.

SPEAKER_06

What did James?

SPEAKER_01

I looked up Avatar Cycle Order. What do you think came up?

SPEAKER_04

Frickin' Earth, water, fire. Matt asked me an interesting question the other day. It was when I was with him, but I was sitting there. I've been still debating that question because I couldn't give him honest to God answer. I went back and forth. Remember, you asked me, you're like, Dean, you're on it because I I love him so much. You're like, which one do you think I'd like better? Jujutsu Kaisen or Hell's Paradise? And I'm like, I still go back and forth on that in my head. Like, I don't know.

SPEAKER_05

Hell's Paradise ain't as many episodes, so you could watch that one quicker, but like I said, you'd be more, you'd be more fair to them because they're very hyped up and love JJ, but anything that's overly hyped, you automatically don't like, which is not really fair, but uh oh, Jay's looking up something though.

SPEAKER_03

I've had the reword three or four different times, so I didn't have James Cameron shit pop up.

SPEAKER_04

The la the new one made a lot of money, but not nearly as much as the other ones. Not as much, and not as much as Zootopia.

SPEAKER_03

Oh. I still ain't getting the right thing.

SPEAKER_02

No, because you know how it looked book one, book two, book three, and it had the element attached to it? Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. That's all I'm trying to get. Yeah, yeah. They never did an air one. Because he already knew air. It went water, earth, fire. You're right. In terms of the books. You're right. You're right when I think of it. Aura did the air arc. Yeah. Okay. But you added the error between fire and earth, but I didn't remember there being an arc. He was trying to commit to himself and relearn how to do air at certain points. You could have spoken up. I didn't even put that together. I was I would think about it, but I wasn't. But I didn't watch the entire series like you, so I could have been missing something. I want the new series to come out because it's just gonna fucking I don't know what's delaying them so much. I could have sworn they already had delayed in Netflix. It takes time. No, no, no, it's an animated world. They're making a new animated.

SPEAKER_01

We're supposedly getting a series on a set of twins of Earthfenders who are avatars.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

And uh the world's in chaos at a cataclysm, pretty much, caused by Korra. So her character is just getting smushed. Yep. And I'm not happy about it because I like Korra more than Aang. I said it there. They're gonna hate me now. I don't give a shit. There's bias there.

Live Action Adaptations: One Piece, Avatar, And Aging Casts

SPEAKER_01

I know. Her character has been driven through the dirt. And I love Aang, but come on. People, the only bad thing about her character is her love choice. It makes no fucking sense to me. And no, that's not political bias or anything like that. It's just I watched the entire series and said, why are you ending up with her? Bowlin, my motherfucker. If she ended up with Bolin, it would have made more sense. Oh god. He actually liked her from the beginning. But no, he ends up with a psycho twin.

SPEAKER_04

I thought more of Sokka, man. Soccer's whole story is kind of a mystery.

SPEAKER_06

His whole spinoff.

SPEAKER_04

His whole story's a fucking mystery because no one knows what the fuck was Sakka doing. Where the fuck's sake comes in?

SPEAKER_01

He has ten children and nobody knows it.

SPEAKER_06

Boomerang, you do come back.

SPEAKER_04

But yes, Korra is just one of the most hated characters for like no reason. Like, like God, everyone hates Korra. They hated her villains, they hated her story. It's like, what the fuck? I don't know. People love Amon though. Amon is love.

SPEAKER_05

People love Amon. Amon is popular.

SPEAKER_04

Sucks going after the original, yo.

unknown

Amon.

SPEAKER_05

And that and the original is so loved, it's hard because it's like, oh, this is gonna be psychic.

SPEAKER_01

I suppose it's really hard to create a seed, a legacy character to follow somebody so beloved. It's it's hard. It's very hard.

SPEAKER_02

Even though Avatar set it up so greatly and qu well, I guess that's one reason I hate Korra's character. She's the one who ruined it all. Because technically, we weren't supposed to get another series based on her lore. She broke the Avatar cycle.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Even though technically, if you pay attention to the end, she didn't.

SPEAKER_05

I still can't believe it. That's their fucking there's that's their jumping off point for the next series.

SPEAKER_04

Korra destroyed the world almost. Oh boy.

SPEAKER_01

That's just off of what people are contemplating.

SPEAKER_05

People are saying who knows if it's actually true, but I I I wonder. I really wonder sometimes. I really wonder.

SPEAKER_02

Oh god, it's the dice. You know what he wants to do?

SPEAKER_06

No, no, no, no. 19.

SPEAKER_07

Oh.

SPEAKER_06

I ain't gonna go first. Twenty. I'm asking.

SPEAKER_04

Last goes first.

SPEAKER_07

No, no, no. We gotta roll.

SPEAKER_06

We gotta ten. Fuck you. We always roll high. No.

SPEAKER_04

Top ten is top ten anime MCs. Yay! Yay! Now we never have to do it again. Yeah, now I have a feeling I'm gonna be arguing what an MC is this entire episode. No, I got some of that too. I got some of that too. Don't worry.

SPEAKER_02

Just to fuck with you.

SPEAKER_04

No, I didn't. I did not do it on purpose, but when I was making my list, I'm like, wait a minute. Some of this is a little tough because what's the MC in some of each? Now there are there are animes where it's like you can tell it's an ensemble. Like one piece you can argue it's the ensemble cast. Luffy is the main character, but spend so much time with this. Straw Hat crew is the main character almost. So yes, I understand that. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Very true. I have no issue with my list. Matt's like, oh boy. Other than you have a list. You got the list. We got the list.

SPEAKER_06

I'm worried about two for dean.

SPEAKER_04

I'm actually quite curious about that. I'm worried about two. You know one of them.

SPEAKER_02

Do you want me to start it off? Well, that's how we go.

SPEAKER_04

I'm asking because we were technically discussing well. I was just laughing because out of I the only reason it's a kind of a random one, but we've done anime lists before, but never just main characters. Never just main characters. It's been like side characters or swordsmen or some shit. We've done favorite animes. Yeah, we yeah. Yeah. Never been just a character. No, if you did like a top ten side character, oh boy, is that a fucking hard list? That'd be almost hard.

SPEAKER_05

That'd be almost impossible for me to fucking do.

SPEAKER_04

Like side character. Fuck. That one need to have a hard issue, a hard issue with pun intended on getting rid of his femme patels. Oh, top ten anime wife? Good. No, no, no, no. No. Side characters, just doing side characters.

SPEAKER_01

The side character list is women.

SPEAKER_04

That's the point.

SPEAKER_02

No, no, no. There's a few femme pads.

SPEAKER_03

And a few trannies.

SPEAKER_04

Funny thing. Funny thing. Kind of a spoil. Kind of a actual.

SPEAKER_05

No, that's actually too much of a spoiler. I'm not going to say it, but.

SPEAKER_03

Ready to go?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Yankee from Monster Rancher. Hey. I appreciate Jay's different ones. I really do. So I always gotta go yay. Because he's like, I don't think I'll have duplicates. So I don't have much in terms of hold.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't choose the closest I get to choosing somebody as childish shows is the one that comes after this. Yeah. Genki is a part of a series that I really wish would make a comeback because it was as unique as fucking possible for a game series.

SPEAKER_08

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Pop a fucking disc in, you're playing your actual game, but in order to get a unique monster, you had to pop a different disc into the system.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, now there are no discs.

SPEAKER_01

Everything's fucking digital.

SPEAKER_04

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

You could still do that with the MP3 format or a file format. But the coding would just be too hard.

SPEAKER_04

Now you'd be getting monster based on your achievements. Basically.

SPEAKER_03

Oh. That would be fucking amazing because my achievements are.

SPEAKER_04

But unfortunately, it'd be like a tiered tiered-based system to a degree. It wouldn't be like it wouldn't it wouldn't recreate Monster Rancher the way it needs to be. No, no, it wouldn't, because it'd be completely You'd be doing the Fortnite aspect of like you're leveling up the tiered.

SPEAKER_02

It'd be a pay-to-win type situation again, because people who are poor wouldn't be able to do that. Because something you could do with Monster Rancher is you could burn a disc over and over again and get a different fucking monster.

SPEAKER_04

I mean you could do it basically like an achievement style thing where it's like you get the monster selections to a degree.

SPEAKER_03

The other thing they could do nowadays with the game is the actual breeding aspect. Because it was called Monster Rancher, where you breed monsters and probably what literally take the game where you have to breed monsters to get a certain monster.

SPEAKER_04

You have a clue what I'm talking about. I know what Monster Rancher is, but I've never no, I was getting like the generic audio. I do that to make background noise literally sometimes, but I'm kind of like I've never dive too much into it, but I know what it is. Ash was the is the closest one to making it on a list. He's more of an honorable mention for me, but Ash. I didn't pick him. Yeah. I was gonna say, we're uh I'm gonna laugh if I hear Ash or Yugi. Not not hate, but like, yeah, I thought you didn't pick Yu-Gi-Oh! No Yugi. I thought about Yugi, but Ash one Ash one is.

SPEAKER_02

He did deserve to be there. But I can't get to him until after we do a make a full round.

SPEAKER_04

And you can't do Digimon because Digimon's the ensemble unless you just have a favorite character.

SPEAKER_02

You couldn't even put Thai?

SPEAKER_04

But I'm saying that's an ensemble cast, so you are picking one, there's no main character in it.

SPEAKER_02

Technically, it would have to be a side-by-side because, in order to completely do his full story, you have to include map.

SPEAKER_04

I love Gabumon.

SPEAKER_02

Gabo Man was my favorite. Gotmon's technically a better character than Agumon, but I love Agumon more just simply because my dinosaur love.

SPEAKER_04

I can't say Dinosaur Dragon. I have the weirdest favorite fucking digit. Jay knows what it is. It's the cactus with boxing gloves. Togemon. I love that much.

Deep Dive: Avatar Lore, Korra, And New Series Rumors

SPEAKER_01

He loves Togumon over all of the other sex Digimon that's a goddamn cactus with boxing gloves. There's something about that. The only problem is he didn't watch enough of the series because I know one of his favorite Digimon builds them up. Yeah. It's a fashion. Especially if he watched Tamers.

SPEAKER_04

It's just don't ask me to explain it. It's a fucking cactus with boxing gloves. There's something just hilarious about that to me. And it's female. Okay. And it probably transforms into something that's not looks nothing like a cactus. It's a flower. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it turns into a female flower.

SPEAKER_04

Lily Mon. That's in the show. Okay, okay. It's the mega.

SPEAKER_01

It barely ever fucking comes up.

SPEAKER_04

No. That's technically the only one. I don't want to show him the mega.

SPEAKER_02

Show him the mega.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_02

You have to show him the mega. Because it gets a boncho form.

SPEAKER_04

Well, this isn't this is the tradition Rosemon.

SPEAKER_01

Hey! I'll show him the Boncho. There's a whip? Oh fuck. Look up Bancho Rosman.

SPEAKER_04

Boncho?

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_04

Oh god.

SPEAKER_01

Where's a Bancho Leomon uh Lilymon? Leomon? Oh, there's a Bancho Leomon. Like Leomon? Leomon would be probably your favorite if you actually paid attention. The problem is that he's also a character associated with Death.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, great. Boncho Rosemond?

unknown

Huh?

SPEAKER_04

Jay's probably only it's probably some overly sexualized, fucking ridiculous thing. That's probably why he wants you to show me. Even though that was pretty sexualized, to be honest. Yes.

SPEAKER_02

I mean female Digimon tend to be.

SPEAKER_01

Male characters are uh lean towards the cooler looking side, but they're also sexualized. The the any anthropomorphic Digimon gets sexualized.

SPEAKER_04

The Gogomon evolution tree is the one that confuses the fuck out of me.

SPEAKER_06

You mean how it goes from bipedal and then goes quad? Or you're talking about the whole metal aspect. So yeah. I'm curious, I want to see what this looks like. I'm curious. Give me just her. Okay. Boncho Leoman. Okay. Yeah. Because you know what Bancho is, right? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Mamimon.

SPEAKER_08

It's literally just a bar bomb with arms and legs. Stingmon. Stingmon. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

Nice name.

SPEAKER_08

There's there's her 3D form. Oh good lord.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you're like there, I told you like him. Vulcanmon.

unknown

Vulcan.

SPEAKER_06

Vulcan Leomon. Or Vulcan Golemon. Jesus Christ. A whole group of- I'm trying to figure out where Digimon came.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, the classics got mention of Ash and Yugi.

SPEAKER_06

So that's Oh. Turns into that. The Gotomon line.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Into that.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. We're getting angel vibes here. Yeah. And then somehow turns into that.

SPEAKER_01

A holy dragon.

SPEAKER_04

You do realize that's part of the reason people have uh get confused with Digimon, because they're Digivolves are like, what? That's really part of it. I think they're funny, but like what? Or is that because nobody follows entirely? They're just looking up memes and what pe other people are saying. I give Pokemon credit just because they kind of make sense. You always say, they follow Darwinism. So they're gonna make Darwinism. Here's the thing.

SPEAKER_01

Pokemon follows digital file naming. You can change a file's name into something else. You can have a WAV file turn into an MP format. M3 format.

SPEAKER_04

The thing is that Digimon followed like the original Digimon followed the following was simple. You kind of got aspects that made sense. It's like the rookie to champion made sense, champion to ultimate made sense.

SPEAKER_02

Anything after ultimate.

SPEAKER_04

Mega's just went off the fucking rails and didn't make any sense. And then there's Mega Plus. Yeah. Because Gobblemon was. Like Gobblemon goes from bipedal with like extra arms wearing a coat to a wolf, then to a werewolf. Makes sense. Then all of a sudden we're back to being four-legged and covered in metal.

SPEAKER_03

That's actually worse because Gobblemon isn't he's a lizard wearing a wolf pelt turning into a wolf.

SPEAKER_04

Give me red riding hood vibes. That was the joke. Yeah. Who would be would it be me or Matt next? You okay.

SPEAKER_05

Always clockwise. Always clockwise.

SPEAKER_04

We talked about Monster Hanser, then we got into Digimon, which is that well that kind of went. I'm also trying to buy the DPS. Yu-Gi and Ash got fucking mentioned, so then naturally, here we go there and come up. 10 was close. I kind of did my my my it's kind of a toss-up thing. Surprising though, because he made 10, is Shinra from Fire Force. Because I you I don't know if you like, you said Shinra took you out of the show a little bit. Yeah. But I like Shinra, because he's got one of my favorite final forms at the end of the series. And he's got the whole arc of being a pretty much viewed as a devil his whole life, and his whole thing is wanting to be viewed as a hero, and I kind of like that. I think I have one anime that's not even, I don't even think you've watched. We'll have to see. And the other one that's close, here's one that's weird. The other one that's kind of there with Shinra tied is Tatsumi from Akame Got Kill. Akame is not technically the main character. It's not her perspective. It's the whole story's Tatsumi's perspective for the most part, even though the title is Akame Got Kill.

SPEAKER_05

Which that's the other word is gonna get a little weird. It's like, because Akame is, where's Akame? She was like, she was up there for assassins. I don't know if she was two or whatever, but she was up there. Her sword was up there at like number one for fucking weapons almost. No, it was two because Guts' store was one. But but yeah, Akame Got Kill is one of my favorite animes ever, so the main character is gonna be gonna be up there too. I love and curse you. I love Tatsumi's armor. I'm not I can't remember if you've seen Akamega Kill or not. I don't think you have. But yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I tried to watch one of Akame Got Kill or Kill La Kill and that one watch one split.

SPEAKER_05

I can't get there. I think you would actually like Akame Got Kill a lot, even though it's very it's very dark, but I think you would actually really like Akame Kill. I tried to watch one of them. I don't remember which one it was. I one of them. Because people mix them up all the time.

SPEAKER_06

Hajime Nagamal. Nagamal. R Ferret.

SPEAKER_04

One that took me a long time to finally like him. Because he's kind of a prick. But then you eventually like. Then you like him. And now he's just my my Percy knockoff. And better at it.

SPEAKER_06

Because Percy's limited by technology. Versus Nakumo's not.

unknown

Oh god.

SPEAKER_04

R Furetta, I how many seasons? I got two seasons. What was the most recent season? Two or three? I think it's three. Yeah, because I just there was a they had it just had a season that ended like last year, and I was like, I'm more I'm more pissed at how it ended. Yeah. That was a very weak season in general. It's just like the thing about Ara Firetta that's funny, because normally there's always a the fact that there are two female characters fighting over who my favorite female is is funny. That's rare, it don't happen much. Usually I have a one. I can't ever decide between Tia and Shia.

SPEAKER_05

Because one's a dragon that likes it in the butt, and the other's a bunny.

SPEAKER_06

You said sh it's Tia and Chi-O. Chia. Tia, whatever the fuck. Chi okay. What? What? We're good. Huh? What? You talk shit. No. What the fuck? Nothing came out of my mouth. I was. Mine. Ty. I said it was coming. What's the last name? Digimon. I cannot remember.

SPEAKER_07

Camilla.

SPEAKER_06

Camille. Ty Camilla, Kari, Camilla. You tell him not Digimon, you don't have to talk about Digimon. He's like, I don't want to talk about Digimon.

SPEAKER_02

Not really, no.

SPEAKER_04

I wasn't expecting to talk about it as much as we did when we did. I tried to get involved there. I tried. And I got involved a little bit. And I got involved. I still think you would like the time.

SPEAKER_08

Time stranger story.

SPEAKER_04

Time stranger story. What we got? Nine? Ah, yes. Yes, we've only said one.

Top Ten Anime Main Characters Begins

SPEAKER_05

My favorite Jojo. Jo Toro Kujo. Voiced by the great Matt Mercer. That's the one I picked. It was either him or Jolene. Those are my favorites, and it's funny, they're father and daughter. But that is my favorite JoJo. That's what I would get signed by Mercer if I fucking ever got to meet him. My Jojo my Jo Toro pop. I'd have to get it signed. That's not every main character though on Jojo's really is has their charm. Joseph's stoic. Jonathan's stoic. Joseph's just fun and wacky. Johto's just the badass. Josué's the young cool upstart one. Jorno's got the male cleavage. And Jolena's Jotro's daughter.

SPEAKER_04

Awesome. And now I'm getting steel ball running March. Oh my god, March is packed.

unknown

Fuck.

SPEAKER_04

You're gonna fucking March. You're gonna have no life on the bottom. East final thing. Fucking I mean, he technically involves me in it, so.

SPEAKER_08

Don't forget about AMK.

SPEAKER_06

Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_04

Ryan reminded me that was the only reason why I knew. Please tell me we don't have to look for a far fetched together. I mean, you probably do. You're never gonna find him. Yeah, that's a joke that we never. Why?

SPEAKER_01

It's worse than finding Waldo. What the fuck? Yeah. Well, Matt has said you don't know if Ryan goes every day like I do, so.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. I might have only one day opportunity to say. I think he may he may go once or twice. I don't think he goes the entire week. Saturday. I know we go Saturday for a walk. Okay, then I still don't understand how we have these. You're never in the same place as him. Technically, Friday is the best day to go. That is the most chill day ever. Sunday is depressing because it's ending and you're sad, but Friday is just so chill.

SPEAKER_05

It's just fucking dope. Alright, I'm done talking about JoToro.

SPEAKER_04

Joe Toro's dope. Our favorite trash gamer, Sunraku.

SPEAKER_05

Not on mine, but that is a good one. That's an applause, because I adore that show. That is an applause.

SPEAKER_04

Trangulaff Rontea. Still waiting for that next season. I am too, because when they end, it pissed me off. Like, oh that one, it's because it's set up the entire fucking next season and it's ended abruptly. That's the reason why it was bad, but it made you hype for it. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. It didn't end it like Ari Ferretto did. It's like, this I want more out of this. You didn't give me enough. That's one where I pretty much there's no, there's no one I really hate in that show. That's that's another reason it I like it so much. There's usually characters I fucking hate that I can't stand. I pretty much like the whole main cast. Sun Rock and every single one on my list, there's definitely hateable characters. Matt wouldn't be surprised, but next one is probably the most hated character in his own franchise. Oh, good lord. Sun Raku is. No, no, Matt's gonna, of course, he's not gonna be surprised. Sun Raku is my second favorite character in that whole show. And usually the fucking main characters don't usually get that far. Matt's probably like, can you guess one? Can you guess my favorite character? It's Pencil Gun.

SPEAKER_02

You're actually kind of pissed me off when it's scared to the last one because I was like, God damn it, I put the one mine higher. That's okay. Hey, hey. Ranma.

SPEAKER_03

Ranma one half.

SPEAKER_04

Wow. I've only read Ronma. I've watched Ranma. Ranma.

SPEAKER_02

I I like the series so much I actually watched the reboot on Netflix City. It kind of follows the same. It's almost the exact same series, just better animation.

SPEAKER_04

Fine. A lot of people, a lot of people. Click that one's really good. That's almost basically a cult classic anime.

SPEAKER_02

It is. I'm surprised I don't like the one where she's an alien. She's dressed up in like tiger stripes. It's a classic. I can't remember what the hell that one's called.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, yeah. I know what you're talking about.

SPEAKER_05

I can't remember her name though, for the life of me. Wow.

SPEAKER_03

That one's popular too. And that one recently got a reboot. Oh my god. It's probably something you would be into. Which one? The one where she's an alien and has the tiger stripes.

SPEAKER_05

Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You should really look up what that is now.

SPEAKER_04

Alien. Why did Cat Planet Cutie just a totally different series? But that shit, Matt, is so fucking dumb. Fuck. It's about a fucking cat girl series that's on fucking Earth and she gets pretty much kind of adopted by this guy. She's a full-grown woman, but she's a cat girl. She's got a tail and ears. And the fucking dog race is coming hunting her down. It's a bunch of chicks that look like dogs. Hey, they they make amends at the end. Yeah, it's me fucking. Only because a third party starts to work. And they it makes me think of fucking movie Cats and Dogs with the Beagle. Looks by Toby Maguire.

unknown

Wow.

SPEAKER_04

That has three movies in that series. I don't know the Abler ones because they were bad. I love the first one. Cats and dog hate. Up here. This is gonna be Rock from Black Lagoon. Revy is not the main character of Black Lagoon. She's this the kind of the dotagonist, but Rock is the main character. And Rock is also very good.

SPEAKER_05

The company man learning to live the really dark and twisted life in a really rundown ghetto ass city with a lot of bullshit going on.

SPEAKER_02

Oh shit, that that got rebooted too. Cat's eye.

SPEAKER_04

And I met Rock. I got a picture of Rock's voice actor and I got my thing signed by him. And I was fun fact, I was the first person he actually wrote a swear word on the fucking autograph. Because he asked me what quote. He's like, can I write this quote? I really want to write it. And I usually have to censor it. Can I write, yes, get fucked on your yes, please.

SPEAKER_05

And you don't have censor. Yes. First time I got the right get fucked on a fucking autograph. He also voices light in Death Note. That's his other big, other big one. But yeah, but yeah, it would be Revy, but geez, no, Revy would be like probably one. But Revy is not the main character of Black Lagoon. Not the main character. See, we're gonna, I'm wondering we're gonna have some of those. I'm curious. Matt's next one's gonna be something. Rudy is gonna. Damn!

SPEAKER_04

No, I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised. But I'll Rudy has I've learned to finally forgive Rudy.

SPEAKER_05

I like Rudy's Rudy. Matt's got it. Why do you like Rudy, Matt?

SPEAKER_06

Because he's at least learning his problems.

SPEAKER_04

He's cool. He's a lot of people fucking hate him. And that kind of odds. Matt's like, he is a creep. He's a creep. Yes, that's why he's only eight. But the magic cont I mean, this was also the homage to Moturuko. That's I just love the anime too. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. He's the protagonist. Pro tag. And he actually is the pro tag. There's none of that. Is he the protag? Is he the pro tag? He actually is the pro-tag. Now he's not the hero, but he is the protag. The hero is not born yet.

SPEAKER_08

I got it. That's the one.

SPEAKER_04

That one. Yep. That's yep. That tiger girl anime, whatever you want.

SPEAKER_03

Technically green hair, not blue. Alright.

SPEAKER_06

Seven? Yep. Kanichi. The mightiest disciple. Yes. Good one. Good show. Very good show.

SPEAKER_03

Technically, my favorite character isn't the main character, so I went with him. My favorite character is the shinobi. The female shinobi that doesn't fucking speak. I don't even call it.

SPEAKER_06

No.

SPEAKER_04

Generally, a little rat money is her. Why I thought that list would be interesting. Because generally the main character is not my favorite. Like, take One Piece, for example. I don't Luffy is barely top 10, not even top 10.

SPEAKER_01

I never used to be the main character that does something a lot of shonen characters don't do. He actually gets with the chick. And now he's getting a sequel. They're making a Kanichi the Mightiest Disciples sequel.

SPEAKER_04

Yep, I'd watch that. I'm looking forward to it. I'd try, like, example. Saitama's not on mine. I love Saitama, but he's so much of a gag character in many ways, it's hard to get him to a top list as funny as well.

SPEAKER_02

Saitama's not your favorite out of that, though, is he?

SPEAKER_05

The villain. Damn it, the villain. Damn it.

SPEAKER_04

I'm surprised the story even continued after his arc. It's a very hard manga to follow, because Matt, I shit you not. Chapters will disappear and I'll be lost on Shonen Jump's app because that author likes to rewrite in retcon shit all the time.

SPEAKER_05

And I'm like, bro, I can't follow your fucking shit at all. Stop rewriting.

SPEAKER_06

It was fine. It was fucking fine. It was technically Kenichi's right up there with like Tenchi Muyo.

SPEAKER_00

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, I got I got a shit ton of honorable mentions. Holy fuck, but still. Oh, I did my seven. Did you you just do did you just do yours? What? Seven? Seven? Ten. Wait a minute. Wait, wait, I'm confused. We might be talking about different things here. Seven. I did my number seven by saying Kenichi. What? Oh, okay. Okay. Oh, this is another weird one. This is I I don't know who you'd say. Lucy or Natsu. But fairy tale. I had the I referenced JJ for this. He said Lucy's the main character. But I can kind of agree with JJ story is told through Natsu. Lucy narrates a story.

SPEAKER_01

It's very weird, so I had to put What about after the Hundred Year?

SPEAKER_04

It is still very Natsu focused. But Lucy's writing the no, the whole Lucy writing a book thing's kind of not as much in 100 year quest, but Lucy's writing a book in the first fairy tale. So it's her perspective, it's kind of her telling the story, but the Natsu drives the story. So it's like, oh, I'm getting flamed already because people hate fairy tale.

SPEAKER_05

Fuck you. Fairy tale. I'm an avid.

SPEAKER_02

It's a very love-hate really.

SPEAKER_05

I'm an avid fairy tale defender. It just gives you joy. I told Tod Habercorn that himself, like, it just when you're down, fairy tale just gives you joy. Like, that's the point. That's the point of the show. There's some bias there because Lucy's got the big old jugs, and I like that. Not my favorite female from Fairy Tale. That is Queen Urza. I like how the author Hiro Mashima draws the best women known to man.

SPEAKER_01

He just like I love how Mashima makes his characters. Because you own not one, not two. I have three, but five fucking Urza statues of the city.

SPEAKER_04

Urza's Urza. Urza herself. I have a Lucy too. I have a Lucy in a swimsuit statue.

SPEAKER_01

But That's how much you love his art.

SPEAKER_04

Lucy's great. Natsu's just kind of me. He is a meathead that gets all fired up and goes and fights. But he has a big heart and loves hard. So I'm like, I love Natsu.

SPEAKER_02

His weakness is hilarious.

SPEAKER_05

Seasickness. Motion sickness.

SPEAKER_02

It's motion.

SPEAKER_05

Well, seasickness, motion sickness, whatever you. Yeah, motion. It's vehicle movement.

SPEAKER_04

Surprise, no, but you fly though.

SPEAKER_01

That's the funny thing.

SPEAKER_04

You've told me. You're like, I've dabbled in fairy tale. I just don't love it like you. You worship fairy tale, which you've told me that a million times. Like, I've dabbled in it. I don't hate it.

SPEAKER_03

Outside of the end.

SPEAKER_04

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I do not know. So 100%. Oh yeah, you don't know.

SPEAKER_04

Ethious Natsu Dragneal. That's spoiled. JJ got JJ both JJ and Levi.

SPEAKER_05

Fuck you. Fuck you. Me, just like, oh Jay, you ruined it. But that was still funny, though. Still funny fucking class.

SPEAKER_04

It's not my fault he doesn't read. He told I I think he might be trying to, because he messaged me once, like, you know, why they need more manga on the show on the Crunchyroll app. And I'm like, are you reading? Are you reading? I feel bad being surprised he's reading. The wonder is warming up. It's a warm day in Pell. Are you trying to read? I have it's pain. I've attempted I've watched him attempt to read. You can see him struggling. He has trouble reading. You know, that's it's not that he can't read school with dyslexic. He's bet he's dyslexic. He can't.

SPEAKER_01

Me, I went to school with him. He did not have trouble with that. Some It's because of his him hitting his head, I swear to God.

SPEAKER_04

I don't have trouble reading. I just read very slow. I'm just like my dad. I kind of read how to I don't know if you read like this, but I have to process every word kinda. I can't speed read. So I read slow. I read too quickly. Oh I have to go back and reread to make sure I read it correctly. So you're the opposite of me. I need to process kind of every word so I read slower than the average person. My brain works faster than my mouth. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Hence the stuttering sometimes.

SPEAKER_04

No, no, no. Oh, that no, but it's very true. Because I'll s I'll fucking my brain will have the thought that my fucking. I'll have a paragraph up like this. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I'll read the entire thing in a couple of seconds and have to reread. Wait, what did I just read?

SPEAKER_04

I forgot.

SPEAKER_08

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04

Maybe that's why I re- Maybe that's why I retain so much because I read so slow when I think about it in that way. It's not that I don't get take away anything from it. It's just You don't take away everything. There's things that make sure that what I read is what I read. There's things that just, and then there's some things that just lost in the abyss. And there's some things that probably just get lost in the abyss sometimes.

SPEAKER_05

The abyss. The abyss. Alright, around to Matt's next one. Matt says Matt's had a good list so far. I'm surprised he was handled it. It's different.

SPEAKER_04

We ain't had a duplicate yet. Uh-oh, the phone. Plocoon! I told you. Why did I just bring that? Why did I bring that joke up? It's probably because I appreciate it so much, much that made me sad. Mamao, apothecary diaries. Very surprising pick. But I I appreciate it because that's on my list to watch because a lot of people love that fucking show. And it's not usually I don't know if I want him to watch that show because he might actually start to look up how to make poison. It's gener I'd as long as he's testing it on himself like she does on mine.

SPEAKER_01

It it don't he might actually discover how to make the blue pill.

SPEAKER_04

Oh god. You shouldn't need help with that. I yeah, I should not need help with that. If I need help with that, that's something wrong. There's some you'd use it as a joke. Oh god, because you love jackass so much. I'm really curious if Matt thinks I would like that. Because it's on my list to try. It's not generally my thing, but I'm nervous I might not like it, but I wanna I want to finish it. It doesn't have action in it, though. But it's story driven. I know. But I love Kaguya Sama Love is war, and there ain't no action in that bitch, so I'm saying there's gonna chance.

SPEAKER_02

There's actually quite a few that he has watched and liked that is war story.

SPEAKER_04

But I know he's driven toward Action helps. Yeah. He's pulled towards it. I want to try it. I love my dress up darling, and that's full on. I'm more worried about he's uh I'm I'm more worried about how often he's gonna hear the word eunuch. You gotta kick out of that. Shit, I love my dress up darling, and that's a fucking slice of life romance. Like I said, I watched too many of those lately. I need to get out of it. As long as you're not watching stuff like this or orange or uh what's a high school club one. No, buy it nope.

SPEAKER_02

Those are people have re recommended that to me before. And it's like, is it reverse harm? No, thanks. Yep, I can't get into it. Oh yeah. No, here's the thing. If it's a reverse harem, it's isekai, and there's a lot of action, somehow I can watch.

SPEAKER_04

There is one thing though about Matt would know I'd have to ask him. Because it's kind of there's the little girl and the the kind of the guy. What's the guy's name? Jinchi. Jinchi.

SPEAKER_08

Well, the Suther is pretty sure that's where he's going.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, he's the main character that's usually on the picture with her for the show. Yeah. He's voiced by Gojo. He's voiced by Kaiji Tang in English, so there's me.

SPEAKER_04

You'd you'd watch it. Now he's gonna watch. I don't know who her voice actor is. Emmy Lowe. She duh God.

SPEAKER_03

Most of the time I get the subbed and not know there's going to be a dub.

SPEAKER_05

Most of them get dubbed. I need to know what if Matt would know any.

SPEAKER_03

Not if you watch it online the way I do.

SPEAKER_04

The only ones I actively catch now are Eris and Sylphie. They're the voice actresses. They're the ones I actually catch and like, oh, I know your voice. And Asta. I catch a lot of Asta too. What are Emmy Lo's most popular?

SPEAKER_02

Um It's not hard.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. And the guy that does Yami is just in everything, so I just expect to hear his voice at some point. He is!

SPEAKER_01

I don't know what is it's like, hey, I just if he sees a script and he's like, alright, I like that, I'll be in there. Or who? Or if they just asked you, the guy who voices Yami.

SPEAKER_04

Sabat, is that Sabat does Yami? Yeah. He's just in everything, do I just expect to hear that's just a legend. He's just we need you, Chris. He's can be the ultimate side character in any show. It's like, hey, you want to be in this. He probably has a part all part stake in Crunchyroll, for God's sake. He had part ownership of Funimation before it went under Crunchyroll. Probably. What is Emmy Lowe's big Oh, well, there's she did Suma in Demon Slayer. That's Tengen's wife. That's my favorite Tengen wife. And her Lucy in Cyberpunk Hedge Runners. That's on Netflix.

SPEAKER_05

I don't think you've seen that. No. But I've like you don't have Netflix.

SPEAKER_04

So the only other thing I've seen her do is Demon Slayer, and she barely talks in Demon Slayer, so there's lines, but it's not like yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Not enough for you to memorize. She was at a she was at a couple cons.

SPEAKER_05

She was at a couple cons.

SPEAKER_04

My next one is the one I don't know if Dean's ever watched.

SPEAKER_05

Uh oh my next one I know we've all watched.

SPEAKER_06

Uh Matoko Kusanaki. Oh, it's Ghost in a Shell.

SPEAKER_04

I somehow knew he was gonna hear that name, process it, and Wikify it. Oh, Ghost in a Shell. She's in my honorable mentions. Some bias because in live action she was played by Scarlet Johansson. I knew it.

SPEAKER_02

That's where the association is gonna be.

SPEAKER_04

You'll appreciate one of my honorable mentions. I got like 17. I should do not. Because after watching the anime, I'm like, movie was fine.

SPEAKER_01

This is actually pretty freaking close.

SPEAKER_05

That movie got a lot of shit for no reason. Like, why is it?

SPEAKER_01

For an adaptation, I do like it.

SPEAKER_04

I don't believe he's gonna be in your top five, so I'll say my uh one of my honorable mentions was Beryl. Beryl? Barrel Garden. Oak and Drew Bumpkin. I really like that. I like that one. That's another I liked him as an a main character because he's kinda they don't do the older MCs much.

SPEAKER_05

It's always a young kid or a teenager or some shit. Older guy. It's probably why Kaiju number eight had some hype because Kafko's older guy.

SPEAKER_06

Middle-aged guy. Fuck off! What? I'm just saying you don't do that much. Like 35. Oh. Now he is. Oh god.

SPEAKER_04

They got the old one that's going on the Adventures Daily grind at 30.

SPEAKER_02

So the next time that I Yeah. Yeah, I did.

SPEAKER_04

Is it 40? I think it's 40, isn't it? Yeah, it's 40.

SPEAKER_03

Kaiju number? I did like 38 or something around there.

SPEAKER_04

I thought it was. No, because they rounded it. It's like 40.

SPEAKER_03

Did you watch Kaiju? I think you watched you watch that one.

SPEAKER_04

Kaiju number eight? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So you're telling me I'm gonna get some superpowers if I let a fly go down my throat?

SPEAKER_04

No, you've at least become a wizard, but probably thinking who my favorite who my favorite character in Kaiju is. Oh, oh, it's Captain Hoshina. That's my favorite character. Followed by Mina. Mina's number two.

SPEAKER_05

But I love I love her pet tiger.

SPEAKER_04

Sex. You might think a little a little low, but he's still there. My wait wait. My glorious fenboy king.

SPEAKER_01

Rimaru. You could just say that. And anyone who listens to our podcast and almost pick that out. They have one of three choices for that. My glorious fenboy king. Rimaru is probably top in their choices for that.

SPEAKER_04

Rimaru probably.

SPEAKER_06

Who are the other two?

SPEAKER_04

Oh, the f oh. Dude from Windbreaker. Subakino. I don't think that one gets brought up nearly enough to be justified. I talked to him a lot.

SPEAKER_01

He talks to me about it more than he does in the podcast.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. So Rimar is to wins. Who is the other one? Oh, again, no, Rimuru does win because the other one's Suzya from Tokyo. Another one that's very even though Canon.

SPEAKER_03

It's only been brought up twice.

SPEAKER_04

Canon, he don't even have a dick, so he's nothing. Because when he was born, it got so much. The other one? It's only been mentioned in our deleted episode. My other glorious Fenboy King?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Who is this other glorious Fenboy King? I'm forgetting.

SPEAKER_03

You mentioned them both, though. Just saying it's only been mentioned because deleted episode. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But no, ignoring the. Actually, both times we've done an anime episode. Strictly anime episode. Ignoring the we had special guests.

SPEAKER_04

Ignoring the glorious Fenboy King stuffers. Put that to the side for that. Technically, there's two deleted episodes. The other one we lost. Last of Us and the anime opening show. The anime game show we lost because we're idiots.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. The other one somebody touched the fucking button.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. The other one we lost was Last of Us in Greek mythology. That was the one we lost lost. On Dean's side, I hated that top 10. Matt is on record saying that's his least favorite top 10, which is fine. But he said, not because I hate it. I'm not that into that stuff. So it's kind of You had me pulling out DD gods. That's how bad it was, guys. We're not mad about it. But I know more about that than I know more than mythology.

SPEAKER_02

Who are your favorite mythological figures?

SPEAKER_04

I think now it's gotten to the point if I redid this list, I'd be pulling anime gods. We'd not be bad. We'd be like, all right. I think ignoring the whole Femboy stuff. Rimmer Rimmer is like a great character, too. I like how he when he first when he first starts, when he first starts, he's kind of a very innocent little slime just trying to learn the ways and stuff. He don't want to hurt nobody. Then he starts, I gotta start hurting some motherfuckers. Oh my god. Because you killed Shion, and I knew she was coming back, but it was still Matt. I was still Matt. I knew she was coming back. I didn't know when I was reading it. I was like, Sheon coming back. She coming back. She's coming back. I'm gonna bring him up back. It did like this thing where it skipped the freaking uploading for a while. He's oh he's he's overpowered. I love his I love that whole that whole cast is great in slime. That's one I was worried about Matt not liking because he messed me again. I don't know if I like it that much, because I've really hyped it up like Matt's gonna really like it. Then he's like, I like it now. I didn't like the villains really. Claimant. I didn't have I didn't really I didn't really have a villain to get into. I can give you that. The villains are a little claimants, whatever. The whale things kind of.

SPEAKER_05

I I can agree with you a little bit there. They fight the big fucking flying whale type thing, motherfucker. God, you don't remember.

SPEAKER_04

And then then and then it eventually for a flying whale thing, I'm thinking Re-Zero. Oh, well, whatever. I'm I'm I'm dying. That's season two. And then you delve into then you then it basically gets pitted hero versus hero. Yeah. I like Hinata.

SPEAKER_06

I'm following him for I like Hinata though.

SPEAKER_08

Slime, but okay. Never mind.

SPEAKER_06

You you you're done talking much, friend boy? Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

No more wimmer.

SPEAKER_02

He's done talking, he's not done thinking.

SPEAKER_04

He'll never be done thinking.

SPEAKER_05

No, my brain don't shut off. It it just keeps going.

SPEAKER_06

Makoto Mizumi. The name does not sound familiar.

SPEAKER_02

Why the hell did I think?

SPEAKER_06

It sounds Sumachi Moonlit Fantasy. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_05

I know then. Because JJ, JJ told me to check that out once, but I never got to it yet.

SPEAKER_04

It's a the the You would love the dragon! He it's the same voice as Asta. And then there's a Oh Dallas Reed. Yeah. Why do I pull these names out like you follow?

SPEAKER_01

There's a dragon that becomes a female.

SPEAKER_04

I mean both both of the both of the main females are monsters.

SPEAKER_01

The only one you you won't even get into, even though she's cute as hell, is the orc chick.

Mid‑List Surprises: Slime, Trigun, And Kaiju No. 8

SPEAKER_04

Oh, the orc chick. Yeah, they do their orcs dirty on that one when you compare them to the other two female leads. There's charybdis. It's kind of a whale back, you remember it now. Yes, I had to see that. That's charybdis. It was like season. I was wondering if I gave a bad description. No, I didn't. Jesus didn't. It's a way. It's kind of a whale. Had you said Charybdis, I might have. But there. And swim me is a lot better anyway because than saying names and shit. Yeah, because when you say flying whale type villain type thing. It was kind of like a whale back. The first thing I think of is the literal whale from ReZero. And that fucking thing was z. Oh, that's just literally just a flying whale. Or how about the fucking killer rabbits? Oh god.

SPEAKER_05

Everything in ReZero as far as I did not like ReZero very much in season one and two, but then I worship season three, so.

SPEAKER_04

Well now we're at a point where your buddy is the villain. No, yes, I know that one. JJ thinks JJ messages that to me once. He thinks I'd really actually really like it. Those are your girls. You're gonna love both of them. Yep, yep. That's on my I'm like I said, once my show starts, because they're gonna start why. And I love the third one, and I love the third one. Zombie Sorcerer. Undead sorcerer guy. He's awesome. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

The girls give him too much crap.

SPEAKER_04

He bangs him later, just let it go.

SPEAKER_05

Mm-hmm. So that's okay. I got two people saying I think I'd like that one.

SPEAKER_04

So. What? It's not your normal Isekai. It's still Oh my god, he said Isekai. Just kidding. But yes, you're like, it's not normal though.

SPEAKER_01

I have to tell you it's the new.

SPEAKER_04

You're like, I gotta, I can't, I gotta be honest. It's broadened by a more complicated story, but it's definitely the overpowered main MC is. Well, that's that kind of. He doesn't start out as no, he does. He's stronger than he doesn't understand how strong he is.

SPEAKER_01

He doesn't understand it because he does. He has this technique that shouldn't allow him to be as powerful because it's technically supposed to kill the people in that world.

SPEAKER_02

But it somehow restores his magical essence.

SPEAKER_04

His main ability is that he's absorbing magical essence and it keeps overflowing every time he gets stronger.

SPEAKER_02

His technique technically kills him every time he does it, but he doesn't realize it.

SPEAKER_05

A mini side thing, just because I heard the because I was I get a lot of anime-related things on my Facebook reels and I listened. I watched a guy talk about the most um overhyped anime that he watched, and he's like, I ended up hating it, and I was like, oh, I felt so bad because he put uh Jay, we're gonna have to help.

SPEAKER_04

Fuck no. Fuck no, that's just gonna blow up the world, it'll come out. Uh Jay, you're gonna have beginning after the end. He said, I hated this shit. Jay's like, I know. I just it came up again. And it's I don't think it's Matt. Matt, don't I want to tell you this again and again. The story is good. Read it. I'm just surprised at that anime is so hated yet. Huh? It's been on hiatus for a bit, and I'm confused because it said that was only he was only gonna take like a couple months, and it's been like six.

SPEAKER_03

Like it was another one where the writer was sick and had to take off, wasn't it?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but he was had like three months. I've heard nothing from it since it hasn't even come back, as far as I know.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, great.

SPEAKER_04

It's just the website I was using may have not just may have not updated it, but it hadn't been rebooted. That show always comes up because apparently there's a lot of people that read it that really hype it up. Then they think, oh, it's got an anime. People talking about this sucks. It got the soul leveling treatment, it got that kind of hype for what it was. It just never came. Yep. And I don't know why. Jay explained it to me because I didn't dabble really much reading that one. Jay explained it to me, why is the anime so or is it cheap and the anime sucks? The anime just they didn't dedicate as much power and authority to it as they needed to to get it.

SPEAKER_06

No, and they're not rushing the story by any means. No.

SPEAKER_01

The problem is that I don't think the fans are as invested in it as they should be, considering where they're at in the story. Does everything that is going on right now is the slow part of the story.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah. They're building the world. Has the it's the slow part of the story that character that animes usually spend two episodes on. It's like, oh, child, adolescent, whatever. They're spent all his story is still implemented through. They didn't speed run through the story. No.

SPEAKER_01

Has that's one of the I think is the main problem of this one is they're actually taking the time to animate out what makes this character who he is and why he is.

SPEAKER_04

He has go, he has Goku arcs that need to be developed.

SPEAKER_01

They're not as long as Dragon Ball in terms of that, but Because shit you not, they do time skip, but it's not enough of a time skip to where alright, we're going straight into the action.

SPEAKER_04

Did solo leveling's hype train kind of hurt it a little bit? Because some people said, oh, watch it, it's like solo leveling. People who watch solo leveling.

SPEAKER_02

That I can say yes, because solo leveling has a bit more aura farming. A lot more aura farming.

SPEAKER_04

Because it's sunjin woo.

SPEAKER_01

I'm talking about action.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, true.

SPEAKER_01

This one builds the characters up in their backs.

SPEAKER_04

First two episodes you get the whole Sunjin Woo and the Cryp getting his power, so that starts quick, yeah. It didn't it didn't deserve that hype. This more so is in the realm of Mushoko Tensai. It's literally the same arc and concept as Mush Mushoko Tensai.

SPEAKER_01

It's one of the reasons you should actually give it a chance.

SPEAKER_04

Solo leveling just gave you memorable villains immediately.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04

And that's the thing that well, not even that. Igris. Igris. My boy gave you Igris early. And almost every episode there's some aura.

SPEAKER_01

This one will not give you the actual villain until second, midway through second.

SPEAKER_04

No, he's almost got to be adult almost adolescent by the time you get a worthwhile villain villain. Yeah. But like Matt says, though, I agree that kind of like Matt says, they it's funny that they kind of stop now at solo level and they're gonna wait to do in the next season. Because Matt says, now, in my opinion, it starts falling off. It's not as the story just goes and it's not that good as good anymore. You get one lap, you get him versus creator is the final thing where if it was like, okay, everything after this is a letdown.

SPEAKER_00

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_04

Mm-hmm. Wow. Because you don't because it felt like he was sped run through the dragons. Yep. But him versus creator was the ultimate hype moment. You finally learn what he is. Because a lot of people talk about the whole fighting Baru, fighting Igrus, fighting Tusk. People they tried to hype up the monarchs, and no one ever talks about him fighting the monarchs, like you said, but that's after. No one cares. He no-diffs them. And they're like he struggles with the dragon one, but he's the strongest being in existence. So you're saying, and I kind of agree to a point, the overpowered shit really just overstays its welcome at times. Like, okay. So you go, there's no stakes, so mountain climb here.

SPEAKER_06

Igrus. Yeah. Faru. Yeah. Creator. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Fleck dip. Then you get him versus Andre, which is in terms of story, is just slightly below content for creator, but it's a revenge arc, so you understand that. And then Dragon God is maybe around, but slightly lower than Igrus. Right, right. And you're that's your ending point. It's like you were here and now you're dropped. Right, right, right. Like you pitch these mon you pitch the monarchs as an unbelievable threat, but he just no-diffs everyone. I I knew after I mentioned beginning uh beginning after the end, solo leveling would come up a little bit because they're both monwas, so they're kinda they're connected hand in hand. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I do like that monwas are getting more attention.

SPEAKER_04

There's one leveling I really want to get an anime for the colour. Solo leveling just blew the whole fucking world up for a second there, like, damn.

SPEAKER_06

Full leveling. I believe we're on five. Jay, did you do your five? Mm-hmm. Okay. No, no, no, I didn't say it. Sorry.

SPEAKER_02

No, this is the one. Oh yeah, he kind of gives me flack for this. Because the series, which he already mentioned.

SPEAKER_03

Oh Lord. I ain't even gonna be black.

SPEAKER_04

Season has its own M. Or I should say arc. Main character. No, it counts because each character each arc has an opportunity. Registers nowhere for him.

SPEAKER_01

Even though he appears in three different arcs. Joseph Joel Star. I love Joseph. He's he's got so many memes for the series.

SPEAKER_06

Oh no! The only one I know is Dio. It was me, Dio. It's the only one I know Dio. I'm just sad that he wasn't the one who killed Dio. Because he's the one who had almost the most connection. Joltero killed Dio.

SPEAKER_04

No, he he he killed him, but then Dio's spirit lives on in his his gay lover Poochie. That I don't give a fuck is Canon. That shit's Canon. That shit's Ganon the way they're laying on the bed shit together. There it's gay. Dio is bi. Poochie is full on gay. Debated who's the top and who's the bottom.

SPEAKER_06

The weird shit people debate. Poochie's totally bottom. I agree. But no, I like. Now that you got me. And you know my Dio's character. He's top.

SPEAKER_04

Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. There is no debate. No, some people have debated verse though. Switch. Some people have debated it. Why why is the Jojo community needs to stop? Yeah, people debated that he might be switched.

SPEAKER_01

He's not a Switch, he's top. Full on top.

SPEAKER_04

Matt's over here like, what the fuck is going on? You're going JoJo. I don't care anymore.

SPEAKER_02

No, this is gay talk. This is gay talk.

SPEAKER_04

Still doesn't matter. You win JoJo. I stopped caring.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_04

Is it something you've tried or just have no interest in JoJo? None. None. None. That's sad. Jay, it's weird. I will be the first to say JoJo's weird. No.

SPEAKER_01

I will see.

SPEAKER_06

I can't knock you for not. Because it took me five fucking years to actually watch the series in total. Till I started like.

SPEAKER_04

Fine. I don't know if he watched it with me or he or he might have started and watched these like fine, I'll watch it.

SPEAKER_01

I started it on my own.

SPEAKER_04

He kept giving me shit for it. Fine, I'll watch it.

SPEAKER_01

Because I was only in season one. But um you gotta keep going. You gotta keep going. We haven't even gotten to the where they give you the stands.

SPEAKER_04

My favorite power anime still. I kind of just tell people part three is where you're really gonna decide if you like it or not. The only problem is you gotta get through part one and two. Part one is the weakest part. Part two is okay, and three is then it starts getting weird. Then it starts getting.

SPEAKER_01

I did like the villain.

Top Three: Gurren Lagann, Assassination Classroom

SPEAKER_04

I just part four threw me. Yes. No, I had me thinking like my favorite where Joseph would actually be. Because Jonathan's my least favorite. I like him, but least favorite. Oh god. You know what I didn't like? What? His stand. Who's? Joseph.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, Hermit Purple?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

The little divine to come up. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Hermit Purple.

SPEAKER_08

How it was associated with the camera. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep.

SPEAKER_01

It's the only thing that I it's like based on his ability to use.

SPEAKER_08

Oh fuck, it wasn't called key. It was called something else. What?

SPEAKER_04

Hamun! Hamon! Hamun! It's gonna be this it's gonna be confirmed in Steel Ball Run that the first Hamon user was Jesus Christ. Fuck, I can't wait. I can't wait. I only know the memes and the side crap for seven, so I'm gonna have to tell you. Johnny Joestar is a religious zealot. He's very religious, so that's part of the funniness of fucking part seven. But yeah. I don't know where Jorno would be because part five is the most has the most gay energy I've ever seen in JoJo. It's just on full display. It's got no cleavage. Literally having him dance like this.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna go on to mine. And the fact that his best friend and him, or well, he's not his best friend. How are they best friends? Would you consider them best friends?

SPEAKER_06

Oh the fucking dude in black and Avdol?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

And Joe Joseph? Kyna? And we're talking about five. Five. Maybe.

SPEAKER_05

Oh yeah. Yeah, I know what you're talking about. I'm trying to just. I've already I've already moved on to my next one. Oh Christ. Oh god. That's oh my god, I ain't watched part five in forever. If it's my five, it's it's guts. Matt's probably oh, he's a little lower than I thought, but guts. I thought he would have been in the top three. Jay will understand the top ones, but guts. I love guts. Guts is one of my favorites.

SPEAKER_04

Inspired a lot of shit. And I'll never understand. I just hope he gets his ending one day, because no character has been through more shit than that man. That man has been through so much shit in his life, it's not even right.

SPEAKER_05

No, I am not gonna talk about the sacrifice of the band of the hawk. I talk about that shit every fucking time berserk comes up. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do it.

SPEAKER_03

He brought it up though.

SPEAKER_05

I'm not talking about Griffith. I don't talk about Griffith. He did dirty things.

SPEAKER_04

He very dirty things. He fucked fucking Guts's love love interest right in front of him. It didn't even stare at her, stared right at Guts. Like, yeah, look what I'm doing. Number five, Matt? That's evil. Yeah, please come on. Yeah, get me out of here.

SPEAKER_05

Get me out of berserk. Get me out.

SPEAKER_04

Well, the next three I'm worried about are on your guys' list. Well, they're starting to approach top, so I don't know where you got 'em. Number five is free. I told you. See, I was right. None of us are gonna have the same list. Well, he knows she's on mine, but yes. Why do you look like you're struggling for electrical power? I kind of do danky without even realizing it, I know.

SPEAKER_06

He's not the Enterprise runny. Oh don't don't tell him that. He's gonna both hands, not one.

SPEAKER_00

Oh god.

SPEAKER_04

I do it, I don't even do it on purpose sometimes. Oh, what am I doing? There you go. Jay, this is why we need video. You do realize you have two friends here, and the thing you're doing is this. Oh, you fucker, you made it worse. Damn it. No, no matter what, you were winning that situation, but at least you did it correctly. Yeah. Why free run, Matt? It's probably gonna be the same reasons. I'll let you talk about her. You can you talk about it. No, no, no. He wants to hear your reason. I don't think it's probably similar, so he's probably got a point. More! Spike's people. Hey. No one I would have guessed was my hairs. I'm worried about my number three with you.

SPEAKER_05

That's a classic. You don't have to worry. That's a classic right there.

SPEAKER_04

No, I am worried because I know you like the anime. Uh-oh. I I don't.

SPEAKER_07

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

I'm more worried about I'm worried about you for my number three.

SPEAKER_02

I don't I don't I don't really know if I have to explain Spike's beagle because we already talked about it. Talked about Spike Speaker.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah, we got it's like the only thing I fucking remember out of the live action series, so.

SPEAKER_05

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

I specifically had to go out and buy a pop of him eating his ramen.

SPEAKER_04

Mm-hmm. Oh god. Four? Four? This is gonna be one that Jay will fully understand.

SPEAKER_05

I don't uh Matt might not, but I don't know if he's watched it. Chise and Elias from a show called Ancient Mega Sprite.

SPEAKER_04

Jay's like, oh there. You made me watch that.

unknown

Remember?

SPEAKER_03

Not that it wasn't bad.

SPEAKER_04

I did like it. In fact, I end ended up watching two on my own because of you. That's one I think Matt would like to an extent. He might not like it like me. That's not it's one that's not really my thing. It's it's very fantasy magic, but there's not much action. But the same vibes as the Poison Girl.

SPEAKER_02

As far as In what? I forgot the name of the show, and you mentioned it fucking earlier. Apocryphy Diaries?

SPEAKER_05

That's what Matt's talking.

SPEAKER_04

Apocalypse diaries or Moonly Fantasy. Uh Apocalypse. That's the one you're talking about. Okay. Mau Mau. Mau Mau. Mau Mau. We've talked about several animes about poison. No, that's the only one where the specific thing is. That was the only one we talked about poison, but Moonly Fantasy. I said poison! Yeah. Spider Girl likes her poisons too. For different reasons. She just can't cook. She also eats all of it. Yeah. So does Mama. Which, by the way, she does end up making a very good dish. I'm assuming you've seen it advertised, but that's cheese. Yeah, I never watched it. You might, but it's one of the most beautiful animes I've ever seen. I adore the story. I like I said, I show Jay, and I just love their chemistry.

SPEAKER_01

Can I get season three?

SPEAKER_04

Yes, but it they will eventually, but it's season two is pretty close to the manga.

SPEAKER_01

I don't want to have to figure out where the fucking manga is in order to get more season story.

SPEAKER_04

Season two. It's still not revealed on Elias's bullshit. So much hinting towards it. He's um season two is very close, and the ending of season two is very is catching up to the mangas that are taking a break from the anime.

SPEAKER_01

So there's not much That's a long ass break.

Number Ones Revealed: Conan And Kenshin

SPEAKER_04

Bringing that up, I know Gotcha Gachikata is getting into gotten to some into some trouble. They uh trouble. Yeah. Because the anime revealed who the main villain is well before you find out who it is in the manga? Oofies.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, they did kind of do that.

SPEAKER_04

Like you gotta wait 35 more chapters to figure it out in the manga, and we're like, you're already revealing it in season one.

SPEAKER_00

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_05

That's how many what's H and Megas Bride? Like 48 some episodes, maybe. I'm trying to that's a weird one though. Like I said, it's fantasy.

SPEAKER_04

Matt would like that element, but it might be a little it's it's a little slower. Like I said, that's a weird one that I like. It's a beautiful anime. I think you'd actually like it.

SPEAKER_05

And they're gonna be at Ampke, so I get their autographs. I could finally get T St. Elias off my list.

unknown

Yes.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. Jin Wu Sung.

SPEAKER_05

Sun Jinwoo! I I I thought about it and I was like.

SPEAKER_04

I I I mean, that one's gonna be up there because it's a good adaptation of the manga and it rich. Jin Wu is is I agree I agree. It's it's hard be uh God talking about Jin Wu sometimes because he gets a little flack from people, but he's still loved at the same time. It's weird. Oh. Because I'm curious if Matt's opinion of this. People say he's a very I I understand where people are coming from, but I do love him so much I kind of ignore it, even though I get it. They don't they say he's a very paper thin character. There's not much to him. So people like to bash him. Oh Jay's like, there's not much to him.

SPEAKER_01

He had more character to him before he evolved.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Very true. I agree. And they don't delve in they don't delve into it as much in the anime versus that they did in the manga. It's like he knows he's losing his emotions.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah. Yeah. They literally date it every time he goes through an arc.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. That he's losing more emotions. The fact that he ends up dating someone was the biggest twist. It's like, oh, he's actually gonna commit to this. No, what the fuck's it called? Where he's with the sister in the show. The sister? Sister leveling? Fuck. Sister leveling. I oh my god, that shit. It's getting though. It's so funny.

SPEAKER_05

Jenna.

SPEAKER_03

Do I have anyone met from? That throws me off. That I didn't know that when reading the fucking thing. That that Ragnarok wasn't done by the same author.

SPEAKER_04

It's because the beginning played a lot into the epilogue that they gave you, uh-huh, that it like, okay, this makes sense. And but then everything just falls flat on its face.

SPEAKER_01

It felt like it was in the same universe, everything was going the same way, and then you got this different background lore that overarched, and like, I still like this.

SPEAKER_04

I still like this, but I'm thrown off. You know what a funny thing? I don't know if it's the animation, but beginning after the end gets a lot of shit for its animation not being the greatest. So leveling's animation is good, but it's not like it's top tier. I've seen way better animation. That's weird. I want you to actually watch beginning after the end.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Tell me what you think as far as animation.

SPEAKER_04

But you gotta get a couple of those episodes in before you finally notice the animation. Because the first two episodes are like him growing up. Like, no, I'm not saying solo leveling's animation's bad. It's it's solid, it's good, but like I'll take something like Free Ren's animation is fucking beautiful. You know, shows like Megus Bride's animation. Freerin's animation is beautiful because it flows so well. Yes, yeah. But Freerend also doesn't deal with as much combat as solo level. That's true, that's true. That's true. I think that's the like I told Matt this. That's the other thing that's the appeal of Freerun to me is as much as I love the story, it when it wants to do action, it does do it very good.

SPEAKER_03

Like also isn't that more so through the studio that knows how to do it. Possibly.

SPEAKER_04

Keep in mind, most of Freerun's battle movements that they show you are just Stark running. Very true. Fern and Freerun are off to the side, staff out, spell. Spell. Spell.

SPEAKER_02

There's not a whole lot of jumping around.

SPEAKER_04

I had the the animation got a little choppy when it was Stark versus the dragon. Yeah. It got a little bit.

SPEAKER_05

I was wondering if it's it's studio Madhouse, so it's gonna look good. I was wondering if it was Madhouse.

SPEAKER_02

So it's not that they don't know what they're doing.

SPEAKER_04

Yep. But like Matt says though, it's good. They're not dealing with as much ridiculous ass fight scenes that they're good, but they're not jumping all over the place with a sword and shit. Yeah. They're not dealing with that.

SPEAKER_06

Not dealing with that. Three. We're already the my three. Yep. My four was sun gym.

SPEAKER_02

Crap. Well, it's because we started talking beginning after the end. Every time it's gonna that's gonna be a new joke.

SPEAKER_04

He needs to pull, he needs to pull the beginning. He needs literally pull from the beginning after the end. He needs to pull it out from under his ass.

SPEAKER_01

That's a stampede. Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I've liked every iteration of him so far.

SPEAKER_05

Voiced by Johnny Umbosh. Legend.

SPEAKER_03

He was a ranger to me before a voice actor.

SPEAKER_04

He was. It's true. It's true. It's true. It's very true. But no, I have probably seen him first as Black Ranger. I probably have.

SPEAKER_01

Black Ranger. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

To me, he's Ichigo, but that's gonna be what you like more, which is totally fine.

SPEAKER_01

You saw him donning the frog suit.

SPEAKER_04

I'm a frog.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04

I'm a frog.

SPEAKER_03

That's probably one of his favorite lines from that movie, by the way.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, I I talk about Vash, yeah. I like Vash. Vash is cool. I like Vash.

SPEAKER_02

He's got the new series. Talk about Vash? Yeah. He's such a complicated character in the fact that he wants to do good, but everything just comes crashing the ground around him when he does.

SPEAKER_03

And the new series is delving more into the background lore of why he is who he is and where he came from.

Listener Stats, Cities, And Running Jokes

SPEAKER_04

A lot of people gave it some people, the one critique I've seen for the newer Trig stuff. People didn't like the animation. I kind of like it because I like the colorful shit. Me and JJ still debate DXD to the end of time, but uh because they changed for new DXD.

SPEAKER_02

It's the 3D animation style that's throwing people off for this. However, the music is there, the story is there, and Millie is back.

SPEAKER_03

That was the thing that everybody didn't like about the first season. Where the fuck is Millie?

SPEAKER_08

Who's this old dude?

SPEAKER_06

Wait, who the fuck is all doing, bro? The music always hits in this series.

SPEAKER_03

There's not a single song or background music that I do not like. There's this piano ballad that is built around the brothers.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Vash and Dagger? No. Knives. I was in the same room.

SPEAKER_02

Where they play the piano, and it's just this theme song around their brotherly life before the what I'm gonna call the fall. Right. That's where all these spaceships carrying off everyone.

SPEAKER_08

I forget what the hell they call those.

SPEAKER_06

Hit the ground and they had to start up new life on this planet forcibly. I just love it. That's where I'm gonna go.

SPEAKER_08

I I couldn't even play the piano song on here and have it recognized.

SPEAKER_04

Number three. Now, number three and two are very, very, very close. My deciding factor was I think two can surpass, can surpass three.

SPEAKER_05

So it's like I'm gonna go with the future here. And Matt's gonna be surprised. Holy shit, that's pretty heavy. But my number three is Simone from Grim Lagen. Shout out, Ryan. Ryan, though.

SPEAKER_03

That's the main character.

SPEAKER_05

He seemone's the main character.

SPEAKER_04

Comeine is dead in episode seven. I wanted to get a reaction out of you because I know how you feel about it. Tomina is my favorite character, but Simone's arc is so phenomenal. He's this whiny ass fucking kid that you fucking get annoyed with in the first few episodes.

SPEAKER_05

And as the show goes on, he becomes this fucking aura merchant like Kamina. And it's like, it's so good. It's so good. It's so fucking good. And I know Ryan would agree with me. I know he would. He got it before you.

SPEAKER_03

For bringing that back eventually, aren't we?

SPEAKER_04

Just for Dean to have a shot at redemption. What do you mean I want? You're like, Dean it, you did, but it's in it's in the abyss. Your wind's in the abyss.

SPEAKER_01

It's still on here, technically.

SPEAKER_04

You can just work it in a format where I have to play then. But here's the thing, though. Matt did call. No, you might have both you both might have. You both kind of called that because it was kind of close between me and Ryan for a while. Then after all, you're like, Dean's pulling away now. You like it's you're starting to get some of his familiar ones, and now it's starting to become that close.

SPEAKER_05

I still remembered. I even messed up.

SPEAKER_04

That's where I where I would have to step in and take a couple of those points away from Dean. Uh-huh. Well. JJ did better than I thought. No, he did worse than I thought because he spied his fucking brain on Kona Suba. Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_02

He was done after that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

He was done. He never recovered. Never recovered. Because it took him 15 seconds to figure out Kona Suba. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_02

Every single one of us was giving him clues after that, too.

SPEAKER_04

Uh-huh. Hello, Darkness Mile Fred. Oh god.

SPEAKER_05

Oh God. Yes, Matt's number two. Like, I could talk about C mode for a long time. We're not on two. We're on three. Matt's three. Damn it. Gotta get back to me. My mind's broke.

SPEAKER_04

My mind's broke.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, yeah. That's why I can't.

SPEAKER_04

Coral sensei. Hey. That was the one I was worried about for you, because I know you're the only one that appreciates assassinated clutter. I know you like it. It's one of the few deaths that got me. Why'd he kill my boy?

SPEAKER_06

But yeah. But I knew he was. You know still the only thing that throws me off about that series. The English dub. Koro Sensei's voice actors Lusa.

SPEAKER_01

And Krillin. Yeah. That's what throws me off about it. Sunny Straight. Listen to that in everything he says. I'm and the fact that he's literally a bald fucking character. Krill. It's Krillin speaking with fucking tentacles.

SPEAKER_04

Koro Sensei was on one of the. He was on the assassin list and through Matt, because Matt's like, God, I did not expect Koro Sensei on Dean's list. What the I remember it now.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yep.

SPEAKER_05

That's what it where it was.

SPEAKER_02

Well, when you keep the fucking list saved like we do.

SPEAKER_04

I know I put a little notepad and it saves it. I like that's a quality. My one and two are going to be no surprise, but it's a quality pick. I don't think he expects them to be where they're at.

SPEAKER_06

Number two is Lupin the Third. I'm not surprised by it. No. Ronald Lupin III.

SPEAKER_04

No, not surprised. Not surprised.

SPEAKER_01

The only thing I'm disappointed in is that he hasn't had anything in recent years. He had like early 2000s movies. Movies, not like a series or anything. It's a fun fact.

SPEAKER_02

It's literally just a cult classic now.

SPEAKER_04

Oh yeah. Fun fact, one of the few voice actors he went in line for. He had no line, but he went over there. It did kind of suck. He had no line. He did go over there, though. Only the awkward people like me were going towards him, which was sad. No, he that is also Minato from Naruto and Okura and Bleach. He probably had a line at some point. Those are probably the two people go to him first, though.

SPEAKER_02

I suppose we're there. We were there kind of early.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah. Because I asked him when he signed my because he signed my Minato and my Okira pop, and he wrote, he put the Leaf Village logo on the side of Minato.

SPEAKER_01

He was expecting for people like me to go up for Lupin?

What’s Next And Closing Chaos

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Yeah, because those are the two, I guarantee you know, he signs about sends them the most.

SPEAKER_05

Lupin might be third, but he signs way more Minato and Okira stuff than he does mean the Lupin, probably. Oh yeah, the detective stuff. And it's very Sherlock Holmesy at times.

SPEAKER_08

So if you like that stuff, good stuff. Uh-huh. Lupin, the thief. I love just he's a good thief.

SPEAKER_01

It's something that you don't see a whole lot, which we actually just saw today. Yeah. I agree with that. I agree with that. James's character, he's a good thief. He he steals from the rich. He doesn't give to the poor. He doesn't give to the poor. He doesn't give to the poor.

SPEAKER_08

He's not robbing it.

SPEAKER_01

No. He steals for himself, but he doesn't hurt people. He doesn't do evil technically.

SPEAKER_04

Was he surprised when you're bringing something lupon up there?

SPEAKER_06

When I think about a little bit.

SPEAKER_01

He wasn't. Expecting me to bring a hit blue radio. It's like, oh, lupon, okay, okay, okay. I think I was the first person in the two days to bring him something like that.

SPEAKER_04

Like, when you think about because there's they like they're not even they still love to sign it, but there's stuff people bring up like, you know how many Zorro things Sabat signs? You know how many Vegeta things he signs? How many fucking all might shitty signs? Like ridiculous.

SPEAKER_02

I only wanted to shake his hand and went up because I didn't want to give it line all fucking day.

SPEAKER_04

Both gays. Holy fuck. He would have got something though, because he signed for everyone. He stayed late to sign. He almost missed his flight. You're probably like, that's what I'm mad I missed. I don't know next time.

unknown

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that was that was at Chicago. Uh-huh. Oh, Chicago. Yeah. I was too afraid to go in his line because nobody I don't think I would have gotten you guys to stand in line with me. You couldn't have done it by it would have been so bad, you're like, I couldn't have done that by myself. I'd have been there for fucking hours by myself. Uh-huh. You could have met a Brock. Like me. You're like, ah, I don't know if I got that in. I could have, but I wouldn't have made another brother out of him like you have. That's true. I guess you're up. That's a good pick. I'm curious if number two. Who I think can surpass Simon. Number two is free run. Number two is free run. Free run?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Only because, I'm telling you, when if when it's not that's probably an end-of-series thing, but when she gets to that where the spirits are and sees Himmel again, I'm gonna fucking be ballin'. I'm telling you, I'm gonna be ballin'. Like, oh fuck! The love's gonna- I'm gonna be ballin', I'm telling you. That's why it could. Freerin could, especially if he's gonna have a box of tissues next to him. Oh my god. And you know me, I relate to Himmel, so I love Himmel and I just love Freerin. It's like, oh boy.

SPEAKER_02

Is he gonna show up with a flower crown?

SPEAKER_04

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_01

That story is so it's telling is he gonna get down on his knees in spirit form? Is it the maybe me?

SPEAKER_04

Oh no, I'll fall over. Well, it's Matt Matt at a comment. I was curious. I'm more so I'm I I'm more so interested in who Stark's gonna see. We know who Fern's gonna see, and we know who Freeron's gonna see. I'm more interested to see who Stark's gonna see.

SPEAKER_06

Very true. Very true, very true.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, he's not an orphan.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, technically he is. He's an orphan. Well, maybe he does say something. He's gonna see his family.

SPEAKER_04

Somebody doesn't know. Fern seeing heiter, right? Okay, I got that. I was like, gotta see heiter. Because his map Stark's master isn't dead. Yeah. He's gotta go back to talk to him. The thing about it though, it's such a unique concept that they're telling this story, and that that's why I put her slightly above C-Mone, because it might. Free Ren developing into understanding humans and how time works differently for her and them and shit fully. I think she's gonna be phenomenal if they land it right.

SPEAKER_05

So I think it could surpass C-Mone, and that's hard. That's tough.

SPEAKER_01

It's more about reconquest.

SPEAKER_04

Different acts taking back the galaxy. I'm gonna take this shit back. Fuck you, anti-spiral. That motherfucker killed him. He's just a black alien in the sky. That's overpowered as shit. That lore, if you pay more attention to it, it's like, why is it this way? But you you just gotta love it for what it is. It makes me sad because I still, still mad.

SPEAKER_05

I'm I she doesn't do as many cons. He still does a chunk, but Michelle Ruff does not do as many cons anymore.

SPEAKER_04

That's Rukia and Bleach, but that's also Yoko in the dub. And I'm like, oh come on. You want to know what I don't think Ryan had her on his flag.

SPEAKER_05

I don't know if he had Michelle Ruff under. I'd have to ask, I'd have to text someone these days. Like, did you have Ruff under?

SPEAKER_04

Or or you can wait till the next game day.

SPEAKER_02

Uh-huh. Oh, yeah. Right, right. You want to know what the show Gurren Lagan opened me up to? What? You heard of Eureka Seven?

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Eureka?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Give that one a try. You got me think about big O.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_04

Big O? Because that's just Bruce Wayne. That's just Batman. Yeah. It's Batman. I remember watching that shit used to crack to me back in the day watching Toonami. God, Toonami. Everything on Toonami back in the day had a crack. Tunami's still a thing from what I hear, but it's like an It's an internet thing or something? To Nami is not like dead. I see shit for it. I'm confused.

SPEAKER_06

I don't know if it's dead or it's kind of. It's weird. Like, damn. We could go to Cartoon Network's dead. I know that.

SPEAKER_08

Well, Cartoon Network was picked up by.

SPEAKER_01

It wasn't a Hulu. Hulu old lord. Tubi. Not Tubi picked up Cartoon Network. Old show.

SPEAKER_02

So you can go back and watch all of Ed Ed Ed and Eddie. Oh shit. Howard the Dog. Stuff like that. Oh shit, my boys.

SPEAKER_04

Yusuke Yermeshi. Number one? Two. Oh, two. We're not on one. I'm getting the whole, I'm getting the order mixed up. That's why. Mr. Spirit Gun himself. I think that would be JJ's one. I can almost guarantee it'd be his one. No, I know the anime itself is his one. I don't know if Yusuke would be his favorite cut. I'm gonna ask him now when he's I don't know if he'd still be up. He might be. He doesn't sleep. He does. Oh god. I like that. The classic pick. That's a good pick. Two favorite anime, something have. True. Very true. Very true. Very true.

unknown

Spirit guy.

SPEAKER_04

Find anything, Jeff?

SPEAKER_03

It just says it's so curly on adult swim.

SPEAKER_04

Adult swim might still be a thing. Yeah, it is. They never really call it that anymore. That's the sad part. I remember when I thought none of it's really hardcore that bad.

SPEAKER_05

I remember being a little little freaking gremlin staying up late and watching adult swim when everyone was asleep, and like, hee hee, I'm watching the naughty shows.

SPEAKER_04

I'm watching C Lab 2021.

SPEAKER_01

The worst one I've ever watched is Mora Oral or Oh God, Pickle the Dog.

SPEAKER_06

I'm watching Aqua Teen Hunger for it. Ham banana.

SPEAKER_08

No, don't bring up ham banana. Ham banana.

SPEAKER_01

On the Christmas turkey? Oh god. Number one. Should come as no surprise to Dean after my number two. He literally brought it up without realizing it.

SPEAKER_06

Conan Atagawa. Not surprised, but I knew it. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

I love myself some Sherlock. And I feel this one this show and I haven't read any of the manga, which is the sad part. Yep. Does so well at doing a mystery of the week. Very true. Very true. My only issue with it is after episode like fucking 600 or so.

unknown

Oh god.

SPEAKER_01

It turns into a more kiddy type mystery show.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, you lose like the mur cool murders and shit and all the cool little i it goes from dark to light. Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And in fact, I I I have to I I've literally been trying to re-watch it to figure out when it does that. And I have not been able to find the point. Because if you try to look it up on the internet, no one gives you a definitive answer. Because everything English dubbed or anything converted to English for a sub-wise too, you get episode one through about 398 or so, then it jumps to like the 600s and then the thousands.

SPEAKER_04

My thing with that is you see like clips of episode 500. I'm sitting there like, Conan, you still a kid? You ain't Jimmy Kudol again yet, bro. On purpose.

SPEAKER_01

Fuck going on. On purpose, he's still a kid. That's the other problem. Which is why one of my favorite movies, Conan versus Lupot.

SPEAKER_02

Like, what the fuck? You still not fucking that's the other problem with this, that Conan is still in love with Rachel.

SPEAKER_08

Rachel. And Rachel knows that Conan is. Why am I forgetting his actual name? I've called him Conan for so long.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my god, I'm actually curious. I know you'll get this. I'm actually this is random, but I just thought it was. Do you remember the names of the people that turned him into a kid? It's not their actual names, it's code names, but I want you to get it so bad. Because you're gonna slap yourself if you don't. No, I'm gonna slap myself because my brain went blank while trying to think of it. Jin and vodka. They're named after alcohol. That turned him into a kid. Yeah, I knew you'd be slap like Jay should get this. You're like, damn it.

SPEAKER_03

Because I was only vaguely trying to remember the episode where his parents pull a fucking trick on him.

SPEAKER_01

Trying to tell them, hey, you're a young kid now. You can't be going after all these evil fucking people. They could kill you. They pulled a trick on him. They tried to mimic the same people that shrunk him into a kid. So they kidnap him.

SPEAKER_04

A kidnapping. Yep. Like I said, case closed was that was one of my favorite adult swim shows.

SPEAKER_01

It was one of those bonded with you on it.

SPEAKER_04

I like the mystery aspects.

SPEAKER_01

You literally bought season one on Amazon.

SPEAKER_05

I used to go to this old movie store to buy them by the DVDs when they came out. My dad took me all the time. That was one of the first DVDs I started buying was Case Closed.

SPEAKER_04

It's Detective Show. It's Case Closed here, I believe.

SPEAKER_01

The show is so good that it's the first anime that I got my grandmother to actually watch. Oh my. She loves mysteries.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And cop shows and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_04

She probably loves the Agatha Christie movies, don't you? Yes, I'm too. I want another one of those.

SPEAKER_02

There's actually a newer one coming out soon.

SPEAKER_04

Or no, the TV series. Oh I wanted a movie.

SPEAKER_05

Matt, fuck another one, Matt Call. It's like, because I was late a little bit late, and Matt said, Dean, you'll love haunting in Venice. Just go watch it. You'll love it. And I did.

SPEAKER_02

Seven Dials. You're gonna have to watch off for it because I believe it's on Netflix. It's a Netflix stuff? What is it? Agatha Christie stuff? Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

It's literally called Agatha Christie's Seven Dials Agatha Christie's Seven Dials.

SPEAKER_04

She she gets her she gets her respect. She's up there with Conan Doyle in mystery fucking books, so.

SPEAKER_03

What? I have to go on Netflix as soon as I get home. It apparently premiered on January 25th, January 15th. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

So it's been out for a month.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

That happens. It happens. Sometimes I hate Netflix for that.

SPEAKER_05

They'll notify you sometimes and they won't. Mine don't shut up half the time. Well, I mean, have you checked this out? Well, neither do you, sir. Oh. Damn. You were waiting. He got his opportunity. He got it in.

SPEAKER_06

Wait. No.

SPEAKER_05

No, no.

SPEAKER_06

Jay's like, I didn't even mean to make it like that.

SPEAKER_05

It's just how I word things. I don't know. Okay. My number one.

SPEAKER_04

Damn it. Oh, if you could see if our listen if our 10 listeners could see the fanf in the Philippines. Fucking shit. Okay. How much did the views did our fucking year-end video get? Or you don't know yet. Not as much as our last one. Damn. That was our big hitter.

SPEAKER_05

Well, then again, we probably got lost in the shuffle because that's the list everyone fucking makes.

SPEAKER_00

Hmm.

SPEAKER_04

Go ahead, go ahead and do your one. Number the f number one was probably the fastest. It might be. No, it works. Number one was the fastest, like the biggest rise, because he would have probably been at fucking like five or six before a couple months ago, but now he rose. Now he's now he's number one.

SPEAKER_05

Yuji Itadori from Jujitsu Kaisen. Because of Mojulo.

SPEAKER_04

The way they have just completed his story in Mojulo is just peak. Perfection. He's basically Gojo now. He's understanding the weight of the strongest. And I'm like, and he's up there, he's not up there with guts, but he's starting to be like, bro's just please let bro die. He's just seeing all his friends and loves one die, and he's still young and alive.

SPEAKER_05

And in the most recent chapter, he says he's still got like 300 years left to live. So I'm like, bro, man. My boy gotta. My boy gotta. See, Matt would have to watch Yutsukaisen to be like, okay, there's there's a lot of Dean's favorites are in here. His favorite sensei is in here, his favorite MC is in here.

SPEAKER_04

Oh god. Oh, most recent chapter actually confirmed that Toto is still alive. I'm still alive at that bitch.

SPEAKER_05

Oh god. Well yeah, I I I gotta always cut the Jiujutsu Kaisen short, so now we got Matt's one unless Matt don't think it's gonna be a surprise, though.

SPEAKER_06

So our YouTube not good. Well, YouTube's never good. We have three hour contents, but YouTube's never gonna be good. At least YouTube, you can come back to where you were. You gotta Yeah, there's no video for us, so they kind of just gotta uh no, no, no. Uh not much better. Seven. I guess it's seven, goddamn.

SPEAKER_04

Cap, what the fuck? Not a big not surprise. Uh this season, I don't know what the issue is. We're pretty much doing the same shit. We always do. Maybe that's the problem. Maybe we gotta do different stuff.

SPEAKER_01

No, it has to be people's attentions and what they want to listen to or about.

SPEAKER_08

Because before I even even talk about this, I'll leave it for the end chat so we can discuss what we want to do. Yeah, I'm curious about Matt's number one. We haven't even gotten Matt's one.

SPEAKER_04

Kension Your only Kenshin. I actually kind of screamed. Classic. A classic. We end with a classic. A series that I really, really like that people need to stop giving that shit because the author is a dirtbag.

SPEAKER_06

There's only one thing I get out of you for that show. You want to do it, and you know you do. No, I'm not gonna do it. Yeah, you do. I'm not gonna do it. Hey you do. Makoto Shishio.

SPEAKER_04

Fuck you! Fuck you, two non. I told for years, years of existence. Makoto Shishio. Who the fuck is that? Why am I saying this shit? Watch his road. Oh I must have been sleeping and just soaking in that name.

SPEAKER_06

So he is a good villain though. This season we as or rather season two as I'm dubbing it. Dubbing.

SPEAKER_08

If we want to do it, we're in season three.

SPEAKER_03

We're in a third third year.

SPEAKER_06

Third year of greatness. Technically four, but we're going into third year off of actually keeping track of shit. Our highest listen to episode on Buzz Sprout is. Can you guess it? No, it's not running. Predator Badlands. That's number one? Even 19. Even over the fucking year end? Or no, not counting the year end.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not counting that one because that was the start.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. Even the year end last year? No, or the year end last year I thought was our like number one all time ever if you alright.

SPEAKER_07

Like, jeez, if you if you want to go all time? Akuna Mafasa.

SPEAKER_06

160. Damn. Ufasa's origin story, yeah. Damn. Wow.

SPEAKER_04

That what the fuck was the top ten for that?

SPEAKER_05

Was that Disney movies? It might have been. I wish I knew what the top ten for that was.

SPEAKER_04

It is literally our most popular episode. Fucking something Disney. Well, Mandalorian and Grogu's gonna take off then. Okay, no, no, it's gonna be second.

SPEAKER_01

Sadly, our second most popular episode, according to stats, is episode one.

SPEAKER_06

That's because everyone We don't even have a name for an episode. It was just episode one. Everyone's checking out the new shit. People love checking out podcasts. Coming in at number three is episode four. I can't even remember what the fuck we did for that. Nope. What the fuck? Oh god. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

And this is close because it goes 38 and 33. And they're both sort of special episodes where we would just shoot the shit like we would normally do.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Marvel, Loki, and Beyond, a fan-fueled discussion.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

So that's about the time where we had the end of, I believe, Loki season one, and we were discussing what we thought was going to be.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, 30 something? I think that may have been Loki season two. It could have been. 2023.

SPEAKER_05

That's in the ballpark of Loki season. That's pretty good. Okay. That's another season.

SPEAKER_04

I think Loki season one was COVID.

SPEAKER_08

And oddly enough, that was that was Marvel, right?

SPEAKER_04

2023 Loki season.

SPEAKER_02

Episode 3.5 special. Where we're talking about James Gunn and what we were expecting and what we want.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, none of it's happening. Fucking shit. Oh my god. That is some shit.

SPEAKER_04

I'm a little concerned with Netflix. Netflix is trying to kill movie theaters. Like destroy them. How the fuck are you gonna let a movie go to theaters for like two or three weeks and you gotta pull them because they gotta go to Netflix for me?

SPEAKER_06

After that, it all dips below 30. I mean, I I take it I take into account that at least we got some lists and every shit, at least they ain't fucking zeros.

SPEAKER_01

The one that weirds me out the most, if you go to the apps and devices that listen to us the most.

SPEAKER_06

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_02

Our top, and I don't know how this works, our web browser, the the dead the website dedicated to our podcast itself that we we get through BuzzSproute, uh-huh that we technically pay for the domain of is the highest at 291.

SPEAKER_06

Followed by BuzzSprout itself. Really? Yep. That is funny. And then Spotify. That's not surprised.

SPEAKER_03

That's I would expect I have to go to Spotify site itself to see the actual.

SPEAKER_05

I would expect Spotify. I would expect that.

SPEAKER_01

And then it dips off severely because web browser, BuzzProSite, and Spotify are all in the 200s.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Amazon, Echo, Amazon Music.

SPEAKER_06

89 and 30. Okay. Okay.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

But for the most part, actually, I should say the main part, we are listened to on Android phones. Our audience is heavily Android.

SPEAKER_04

That's not surprising. I was like, everything is phone now.

unknown

Yeah?

SPEAKER_04

You almost don't need a computer for shit.

SPEAKER_01

Windows computer is the second one.

SPEAKER_06

And third is Apple iPhone. Okay. You just alienated Apple by saying that. I like Apple hasn't done that to us.

SPEAKER_04

It's very true. That's very true. It's very true. Alright. Close her up. Anything, anything.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no. I'm gonna do I'm gonna do Dean's favorite locations.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, thanks. Can you guess who our top is?

SPEAKER_04

Is it still the Philippines? No, they're at second. What the fuck? I'm done. Who do you think first is? Oh fuck, some is it weird? No.

SPEAKER_06

Not at all. It should surprise the shit out of you. Japan? Mexicans.

SPEAKER_01

Oh fuck! No. Number one at 30% of our listeners.

SPEAKER_04

If it's basic if it's America, the United States. Oh my god. That's so not fun. I wanted something funny.

SPEAKER_02

Philippines is number two with 20.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, damn right. And the sad part about that, 12% of our listeners are from Singapore. Coming at fourth. The United Kingdom. Hey! 9%. Germany.

SPEAKER_06

4%. Well, they love you.

SPEAKER_08

Because four episodes are brought up by gas people. Alright.

SPEAKER_04

They love we bring up Baldur's Gate too much. The incident. The incident. Oh, that's what it's gonna be called. The incident.

SPEAKER_01

This is the one that throws me off. It does cities too. What? Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_04

Wisconsin or was soon as pop.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. That one I'm not counting because of all of our friends and stuff that in the list. The legends. The legend. We have friends.

SPEAKER_04

The legend, Ryan. The legend.

SPEAKER_01

Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Damn it. 5%. I don't even know how to pronounce one. Tucson City Metro Manila. Manila? I have no clue where that is. Sounds like you better fucking know. That's probably the Philippines. It's probably the Philippines because that's not no. No.

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_06

Jesus, what the Google Maps, here we go. It is the Philippines. It's the Philippines.

SPEAKER_04

The most populous city in the Philippines. Yay. You should know where the fuck that is. I can't even get it out. That's where our first live show is gonna be.

SPEAKER_03

I don't think we can afford to do it in that city. It's the most populous city.

SPEAKER_08

It's still the Philippines.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my god, there's oh wait, how close do me a favor? How close is that to Thailand?

SPEAKER_02

You need to know how close the Philippines are to Thailand?

SPEAKER_06

I need to know if I gotta prepare for Lady Boys. It's the Philippines.

SPEAKER_02

You're you're gonna more likely come up to a Latino looking chick.

SPEAKER_07

Oh god.

SPEAKER_05

Oh god. No, that was funny. I'm gonna cry because I'm over at the fucking Philippines.

SPEAKER_04

Fuck you, America. I love you, America, but why'd you have to take the Philippines out of number one?

SPEAKER_05

That was a legendary joke. Oh god.

SPEAKER_04

Alright, what's what's anything? What's on the docket next? Maybe scream? We don't the problem is our our uh obvious episodes are summer. I mean God, I think you're fine.

SPEAKER_06

It's 2,000 miles away.

SPEAKER_05

Well, okay. I don't gotta worry, I don't gotta be the Jade have to be my protection. Like, don't keep them with me. Fine, we won't be going to Bangkok.

SPEAKER_02

Dean would accidentally, and I mean literally accidentally, it's not like he purposely went there. Go into the red district and not realize it. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

Like what what has happened? What has happened? Okay. End of the show here. Anything for them to expect.

SPEAKER_06

I don't chaos. Chaos, it's always chaos.

SPEAKER_02

But one of us needs to fucking become Shadow the Hedgehog and use Chaos Control.

SPEAKER_01

A possible fucking screen. Possibly scream? You were supposed to be the guidelines. We are so far away from guidelines.

SPEAKER_04

No guidelines, no, no guidelines exist with us. That's that's just what's the point in using the fucking guidelines when you go off the rails off of one word? Sorry.

SPEAKER_06

Ass. What? I was trying to get you off. No, I'm I'm just just Why are you trying to get him off?

SPEAKER_04
