The countdown to Star Wars Celebration Japan has officially begun, and our trio is buzzing with anticipation as they dive into the newly-released schedule. With just two months remaining before their journey to Japan, they meticulously analyze each day's offerings, weighing the value of panels against precious time in the merchandise store.
After spending time catching up on personal developments—including Jack's promotion test results, Lew's busy week of professional events, and Duke's mysterious gift of a customizable Dream Controller to enhance the podcast—the conversation shifts to their collective passion: all things Star Wars.
The group examines standout panels including Lucasfilm Animation's 20th Anniversary, Ahsoka, and behind-the-scenes presentations with industry legends like Doug Chang. Their insider perspective shines through as they share wisdom gained from previous Celebrations, offering practical advice on navigating international conventions. Should you prioritize the main stage or opt for simulcast rooms? Is it worth waiting in line for exclusive merchandise or catching panels that will eventually appear online? These seasoned convention-goers break down the pros and cons with humor and candor.
Between discussing Disney Parks merchandise strategies and debating future Celebration locations, they reflect on how the event has evolved since their first experiences. Their memories of standing in outdoor queues at Celebration III contrast sharply with today's digital lottery systems, highlighting both improvements and persistent challenges in convention organization.
Whether you're heading to Japan or experiencing Celebration vicariously through coverage, this episode provides essential insights into maximizing the Star Wars convention experience. Join these passionate fans as they prepare for their international adventure, sharing laughs and expertise that only comes from years of dedication to the galaxy far, far away.

Speaker 3:Look at that, a dream controller.
Speaker 2:What is that?
Speaker 1:I don't know what it does, what's it do? So you can program the buttons to do whatever you want. So instead of you having to go wait, hang on this is funny, you just hit the button, nice. So it might take a bit for you to figure it out, but you should be able to hook up your sounds and stuff to it and other stuff Exactly. So instead of you having to click on it with the mouse, you just are like, and then so Way more professional, you know, and you can program anything with it, and I figure I don't know how many sounds you have, but I figured you know you can actually do different like banks.
Speaker 3:You can actually do different banks of sounds.
Speaker 1:Four Jack's doing math.
Speaker 3:Four times five.
Speaker 1:Fifteen. Well, no, four times five. Well, no, then you can make, you can actually do different pages, so, like you can set it up in the software to where I think on there there's buttons at the bottom that take you to different pages. So, if you like, want to do page one of the sounds, page two of the sounds? Oh man, you want to do our podcast. You know our podcast sponsor. Once magic spoon jumps on board hells, yeah, you could just hit magic spoon and then it'll. The nice thing is the little icons. You can actually customize them to make them look like whatever you want to. So like, when lou comes on, you gotta have a little picture of lou and it'll play lou's intro.

That's when we start streaming, like doing twitch streams and shit like that. But we'll worry about that when we get to that when we get a sponsor, we'll go there, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3:All right, lou's over there grooving.
Speaker 2:He is With no music going.

Speaker 2:Trying to shake some gas out there.
Speaker 1:Dude, they put me on a. I got a new prescription on Friday. I talked to my sister. She used to do the same prescription way back in the day. I've been fine. I was fine. I was like, okay, everything's good. And they're all like, hmm, things can get a little dicey. I talked to my sister. She's like, by the way, everyone I know that's ever taken this things have gotten dicey. I'm like, ah, whatever, I'll be fine. And two hours later I'm like, oh, here I'm losing O-rings, I'm losing just everything. It's just, it was all bad man, I was like uh.
Speaker 2:I woke up this morning and I'm like I woke up.

Speaker 3:Oh shit.
Speaker 2:Literally.
Speaker 3:Oh man All right.
Speaker 1:Luke what's your favorite element? What's your favorite Star Wars element? All of them when you first looked at that, what was the first one that you went oh yeah, that's totally an element it wasn't so much that, when I first looked at it, the first one that popped out was this one.
Speaker 2:It was VD, and that's what the doctor said was this one, it was VD and that's what the doctor said. So that was the first one that popped out, viper droid.
Speaker 3:Okay.
Speaker 2:I don't know Something about it, it just drew my eye to it and even now, when I pull it out of the closet, my eye still goes to that one.
Speaker 3:Even though Darth Vader's right there.
Speaker 2:Right there, right there for the taking in the right, proper color. I think it was because it's off to the side and my focus was the middle.
Speaker 3:That one is right in the middle.
Speaker 2:Then I saw VD and I thought it was Vader.
Speaker 2:I got excited and I was like, oh, that's, that was something that was in the movie for like 10 seconds, so you know I think I think I've had this shirt for 15 years it's been a minute because I saw the cracks when you hold it up to the oh yeah, yeah, but I have enough that I can cycle, so I only wear it like once a month, once every other month, so not a big deal. But yeah, this is was like finished my shower after my episode of Landman, I was like, okay, put on my usual go-to-bed shirt. Like no, no, no, no, that's my Conjunction Junction shirt, schoolhouse Rocks. I was like that doesn't fit for the pod, but it kind of does, because I've worn it before. I've worn it before, but I was like no Duke's right. I was like no Duke's right, it's mostly Star Wars some of the time.
Speaker 1:In my head now, all I can picture is Leo going into the bedroom wearing a Conjunction Junction shirt. It's great, Conjunction Junction what's my function, donald? Ducking it, yep.
Speaker 3:Good job. Oh yeah, I have my damn shirt on.
Speaker 2:And his wife going like I'm Mr Bill on, I have that shirt. Sit on Capitol Hill. We name our part to Mike Rocha's Capitol Hill. She gonna sit on it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, I got Just a Bill shirt. They were Comic Con exclusives Years ago, man.
Speaker 2:I was just a Bill shirt. They were Comic-Con exclusives years ago. Man, how the kids moved up.
Speaker 1:I was kind of you know how, there's laundry that you do every week, and then there's I hadn't washed a bunch of my Roosevelt shirts because I just was like, eh, I was like, okay, it's time to wash everything, you don't want to get too much laundry. You're like, okay, I'm going to grab the towels. I'm going to grab the towels, I'm going to grab all the shit that doesn't ever get washed on a regular basis.
Speaker 1:So I washed all my Roosevelt shirts and I was like, oh shit, salt Lake City Comic Con shirt came with a Roosevelt's lanyard and I was like, damn, I ain't seen one of those before. So I was like, oh, bonus lanyard. And I was like, damn, I ain't seen one of those before. So I was like, ah, bonus, because I picked it up and it fell out and I was like, oh shit, what the, what the hell just happened, forgot they do that but the rose city one didn't have one, so I was like, oh, that's it, didn't uh yeah just that I traded it for.
Speaker 3:He just threw it in there with it.
Speaker 1:I was like okay okay cool yeah, but I never seen one before, or at least I hadn't seen one in the wild. I think they wear them from occasion. Yeah, generally.
Speaker 3:They gave us a couple at San Diego.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'd have to go back through my San Diego stuff, or maybe I wasn't around for that we always get the stickers right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, the stickers are in there.
Speaker 1:Oh, I gotta tell you guys which stickers I got, so you can tell me if they're rare or not.
Speaker 2:Are there rare stickers? I don't even know.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I would imagine there's probably a couple of them that are. But I mean, you know, we can also trade them amongst ourselves to make sure we have a whole collection, a whole set.
Speaker 3:So many, oh, for sure.
Speaker 1:So, many. But, no actually. Yeah, I think I'm super dialed in for wearing just Roosevelt's every day in Japan now. You have that many. Oh, that's a nice one Like the tiki room. Yeah, I have that one. I've seen that one.
Speaker 3:This one is the hang tag Hidden Easter egg A lot of the licensed ones.
Speaker 1:the hang tags are also stickers. Death, that must have been a Halloween exclusive one.
Speaker 2:That was my first thought too.
Speaker 3:He looks like Schoolhouse Rock. He does Mascot dude.
Speaker 1:They haven't done any Schoolhouse Rock shirts, have they?
Speaker 2:No, they should, that would sell out so fast.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that would be awesome though.
Speaker 2:As long as it's not too busy, I'd buy them.
Speaker 1:They would have one that would be just the bill all over, I'm sure, right the bill.
Speaker 3:For sure, yeah. And then the Conjunction Junction. It'd be like stripes or something, just the railroad tracks.
Speaker 2:Yep, do what is conductor out there.
Speaker 1:Why do we not work for Roosevelt's guys? What the hell.
Speaker 2:We're coming up with some great ideas right now right and we're just giving them away just for free I have a bunch of my pins too, don't be so much drawer here. I don't think I've gotten any of the pins. You buy them on site or at the cons.
Speaker 3:I don't remember san diego or denver when we were.
Speaker 1:I thought we talked about it when we were in san diego, none of them.
Speaker 3:We looked at them, but none of them were it when we were in San Diego.
Speaker 1:You didn't get any in San Diego, none of them. We looked at them, but none of them were like, eh, like we were like eh.
Speaker 2:Well they're blind bags, so you don't even know what you get.
Speaker 1:But I mean we looked at what the pins were Right, like what the options were you guys might have. I don't remember doing that.
Speaker 2:I thought we looked at them. I'll take your word for it. I don't remember that at all, holy shit.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah, yeah, because I know we were looking for pins, but we were looking for, like, specific pins or genres of pins.
Speaker 2:Gotcha yeah. So when I go to Denver in July I'll check out. Yeah, snack a couple blind bags, because I definitely didn't open and opened my eyes to that last time. I was just there that was my first time doing it. Jack's like get this. And I'm like okay, and I'm all like, what about this? And he's like no dude, that's a common jacket. Everybody has that.

Speaker 1:But I'm saying like they're, they're leaning more into it, like when you scroll through the page, like they're way more.
Speaker 3:You seem to have a lot more than usual usually.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh apparently reading some of the blogs. Well, blogs, the facebook pages, the group pages, they've changed their quality and upped their quality because they said the t-shirts sucked. At first the quality was horrible, but the last six months they said they've gotten way better. That's the problem.
Speaker 3:The Harley Quinn one for my house shirt.

Speaker 1:This part will be dialed in Got this down.
Speaker 2:I saw a joke earlier. It was like you know a lot of people like their big dogs, little dogs, stocky dogs, whatever fighting dogs, whatever they want to do. I was like you know what I your big dogs, little dogs, talkie dogs, whatever fighting dogs, whatever they want to do. I was like you know what? I'm going to get a couple of boxers and name them Calvin and Klein for some boxers, thank you, and then hire.
Speaker 1:Marky Mark as your dog walker.
Speaker 2:Oh, man See.
Speaker 1:I'm adding layers to your joke.
Speaker 2:Yeah, look at this. Oh man, I'm adding layers to your joke.
Speaker 1:Yeah, look at this, oh man.
Speaker 2:I got you Lou.
Speaker 1:How was your week, guys Busy.
Speaker 2:That's the last half. I had meetings like not just like HOA meetings, but I did have some, but also vendor meetings on properties. So I'm in and out driving around town going to different spots. Then I had my trade conference on Friday and that was like a 7.30 in the morning to 9 at night event All of it I mean the event itself was done at like 3 or 4, but then there's the happy hour and after parties that were happening.
Speaker 1:Get us some swag.
Speaker 2:I'm looking over now because that's where the swag is Umbrellas, wireless chargers, little pocket screwdrivers, all types of knick-knack shit. Honestly, I may have got 25-30% of what was available. There was so much. I was like you know what, I'm good, the younger Lou would have grabbed everything.
Speaker 3:Everything.
Speaker 2:Everybody with their notepads and pens. I would have walked out of there with 65 pens, 40 notebooks, 17 bags, but I was like I could use this If I could use it. I took it. That's how it came down to it. It was like, oh, that's neat, but I ain't gonna use it. Except for one thing. I don't know how I'm gonna use this. It was a lamp, it was a little thing like this and you just pulled it up to to be a lamp, like a camping lamp. I guess that thing was kind of cool. I was like I don't camp, my black ass didn't get eaten by a bear, so that ain't happening. Uh, and I have no other reason why I would use this thing, but I thought it was super cool there'll be a time the power is out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you're going to be wandering around. There's a light on my phone, but the lantern will give it an ambiance. The light on your phone is just like turn that shit off.
Speaker 2:It's like a flashlight, though, If the power goes out.
Speaker 1:I'll be like, oh, where am I going? I'm going to use my phone to find my lantern.
Speaker 3:Exactly, I think you'd be one of them old-timey graveyard workers holding up your lamp.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you could be the graveyard worker from Haunted Mansion.
Speaker 2:I was thinking of. Was it Finch from Harry Potter Kids back to your rooms? I would be that old, cranky motherfucker too. I sure as hell would. You would, yes, you would be, You're there too.
Speaker 1:I sure as hell would you would You're there that too.
Speaker 2:I don't even have a lawn in the department complex and I'm yelling it off my lawn.
Speaker 1:If.
Speaker 2:I had a lawn You'd have to get the fuck off it. Right, big old slab of concrete there for a reason, use it, man. I'm in Boulder. Damn it it. When, in Rome, stop killing the grass, you're hurting its feelings.
Speaker 3:Are you going around vandalizing Cybertrucks too?
Speaker 2:No, maybe later. You know what's funny. I thought about something I don't get it. Not the vandalism part. People want to be stupid. They can be stupid. The call out to sell your Tesla, sell your Tesla, blah, blah, blah, sell your Tesla. I'm like, well, then somebody else has a Tesla, they still have a Tesla, nothing's changed.
Speaker 3:I don't get the Unless, you're just giving it to the dealership.
Speaker 2:The dealership's not going to buy it. Why would they buy it, unless they're going to get a good rate? Unless you're trading it in, yeah, but trading it in for what You're at a Tesla dealership.
Speaker 1:No, not necessarily.
Speaker 2:You trade it to a Ford dealership and the Ford place probably wouldn't even take it, especially now in today's society. I just don't get the point. It was like, oh, sell your Tesla to this guy over here who now has a Tesla. You didn't do anything.
Speaker 3:Car dealerships will take any car they might only give you $500 for it.
Speaker 2:The dealership bonus is because I tell you right now, if you have an opportunity to buy a Tesla and you can get it at a fraction of the cost because a dealership took it in at a fraction of the cost, hell I'd buy one. I don't have any hate the way some of these lefties do on Tesla, but I don't care If I had some hate on some other car. People still buy Volkswagens. Nobody's crying about that.
Speaker 3:That was some time ago.
Speaker 2:It's still a Nazi car, people still buying that. I don't understand that hypocrisy.
Speaker 1:But whatever they're not, because they did all that with the miles per gallon, where they were lying about that for a decade or whatever that did happen for a while. Yeah, I remember that they did a recall of all of the VWs I remember seeing pictures of the Silverdome in Detroit where the entire parking lot was just full of VWs. Because they couldn't sell them, they couldn't do anything with them because that was part of the settlement.
Speaker 2:They done messed up. Ron, oh man, speaking of which, I hope he doesn't go to the steelers. Good lord, I had russell wilson and his leftover ass last year and now I might get a ron, although I do hope he goes to the vikings. I'm not gonna lie just because, yeah, you would, man, I gotta find me a, find me a dentist. Oh, get that fixed, get that insurance. May as well use it yeah you know you would think something.
Speaker 2:Just go back and and and, re, I don't know, redefine some shit. It's like you have dentures, for example. Shouldn't that really be called a substitute? Why is it a substitute?
Speaker 1:Good lord, this motherfucker is sitting here watching Landman while reading dad jokes. He's like oh, I'm going to be fucking Jeff Dunham tonight guys.
Speaker 2:It's another left turn. Love you, bubba J. Although I did finally get my freaking checkup done, you get older, certain ages and shit, so have to get your prostate checked, which wasn't too bad, I was deeply touched.
Speaker 1:I can't wait until you get the slide whistle.
Speaker 2:I thought he had that already.
Speaker 1:That was way more appropriate for that one, especially for what was coming out of Lou's butt after his prostate exam man.
Speaker 2:It's like hey, hey, is that one finger, use two. What's wrong with you? You're going to test me.
Speaker 3:Make sure I'm healthy, gay oh my god, oh my god. I don't even want to talk, no more, I'm just do sound effects let's just sit in the back, just push a button the whole time.
Speaker 2:Slide, jack in the back, push the buttons. Yep, oh my god. So, yeah, so, anyway. So I had that trade show backing up 40 minutes the week, the long week. So I did all that. Then yesterday I had lunch with my niece and some friends. That went, god, four or five hours. That led me into a St Patrick's party that I was going to. Then I was there for a few hours. Your friends or her friends, no, my friends, okay, yeah.
Speaker 3:It should have been her friends.
Speaker 1:With my, with my, you're right, Slow.
Speaker 2:We just started hanging out again. Before I start picking off her friends, Let me you know. But yeah, so we all.
Speaker 2:so the four of us went up around I don't know five or six, and then I went to the. My other friends, I other friends I used to tutor their kid in calculus. He's a Star Wars fan, so we clicked pretty good a few years back. Cool kid, cool family. They throw a St Patrick's party every year. I missed it last year but I was like, okay, I'll make sure I go to this one Again. That was late night, slept in today and really into laundry and straighten up type stuff today.
Speaker 3:As one does as one does.
Speaker 2:What about you, Jack? What was your week like?
Speaker 3:I failed my test for promotion.
Speaker 1:They don't know what they got. Man Just saying.
Speaker 3:No, so actually it was just one part. They had a bunch of different categories, so the part I didn't pass was Conflict De-escalation. You going to read that book?
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:Shut the fuck up, get back to work, right, that didn't go over as well as you'd hoped.
Speaker 3:No, making people cry, no, so I did a feedback thing with one of the raiders, so raiders not raiders.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Max Crosby walks in.
Speaker 3:Oh, you're going to de-escalate me, motherfucker. Yes, I'm going to drink this beer right in front of your bitch ass.
Speaker 2:Did you go and do feedback? Yeah, oh, okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. So we'll see. We'll see if I do it again next time. At least I know what they're looking for.
Speaker 2:If those dollar figures are enough, and how does it change your schedule?
Speaker 3:That's one of the things I said. I'm very happy with professionally right now. Honestly, I get good schedule. I got money. Seniority Would it be worth going to Graveyard for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday off For a couple extra dollars?
Speaker 2:That's what you would have Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
Speaker 3:Yeah, because it's like graduating from 8th grade to 9th grade.
Speaker 1:I'm on top. Now You're a seniority.

Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 1:Go up, but now I'm at the bottom. Yeah, okay, okay. But I mean, then go ahead, dude. But then you circle back to the stuff that we talked about originally when you were, when we had the. I think it was like one of the first conversations we had about you becoming a supervisor. Was that one of the things that you were interested in was that you could actually make change. Like there was shit that you saw as a trainer and stuff that you saw day to day, but you don't have the ability to impact that positively, right, at least, as you would as a supervisor. Like you can make suggestions and you can put stuff in the suggestion box, but as a supervisor you'd actually be able to make that change to improve the work environment for everybody. And at that, at that moment you were kind of like, oh yeah, like that would be. That's something that's frustrating me at my job. You know what?
Speaker 3:I was told is that everybody goes into being a supervisor, that with those big, lofty ideas, right. But it also takes three to four years to make any kind of decent change, just because everything's so slow moving and everything. I'm like I'm the government shit. I'm almost ready to retire. I'm more than halfway through my career.
Speaker 2:You may change and be out the door exactly yeah they'll be like the last day.
Speaker 1:They'd be like okay, we're gonna change how this training schedule works. And you'd be like and I'm out, here's my key to the city.
Speaker 3:Bye bitches thanks for playing. So we'll see. I don't know Because really I am happy where I'm at.
Speaker 2:So my question was going to be that stack you're talking about. So you have the super stack and the regular stack and you're like rank what? 25?
Speaker 3:Something like that, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then how many? 25 out of how many? I'm pushing 200. Okay, so what's the number on the super side? You'd be numbered whatever the last number is, but how many is that? Like 50 or something?
Speaker 3:No, it's not that high. It's 20 at the highest, so 20 soups.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you'd be at the bottom of the totem pole. Yeah, yeah, sees, yeah, and you'd be the bottom of the totem pole. Yeah, yeah, see.
Speaker 3:Oh man, that'd be brutal well, and then I guess it would depend if you know people are dropping off, then okay, great and there are, but again I'm like, and then I can't post how much, you know, I hate work memes anymore because that wouldn't be very supervisory of me, you'd have to do it on your private facebook page no, no, no, because you have to be able supervisory of me.
Speaker 2:You'd have to do it on your private facebook page, no no, no, because you have to be able to trust who you're working for and who you look up to. So if you're telling these truths, I'm like, okay, I can respect that dude versus peaches and cream. It's like, oh, everything's great, let me, let me just rub that and just slob all that knob, and how great everything is. Now nobody's gonna going to believe that shit Be true. I'd rather somebody could fight hey, thinking about working at this company, what can you tell me? And it's like oh, it's great. And all this is like no, no, no, no. Tell me the real story. Oh well, there's this and this and like, okay, based off of that, or I still want to go there. At least I know what I'm getting myself into. That's true, that's true. I'd rather have that shit for sure.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we'll see. It's probably going to come around sooner than later, just because I know people that are leaving this year. And if only three people are going to be on this list and one of them is already on the previous list, it's probably going to get promoted.
Speaker 2:It's really just a little too, so I don't know. We'll see. Do you know how the other five did other?
Speaker 3:four did. Yeah, only three of them made the list. Oh shit. Yeah, two of us failed on the interview part. Like how?
Speaker 1:long before you know who actually got moved up to to super racer who gets this is just to make a list, oh okay.
Speaker 3:they always have to make a list, oh okay. They always have to have a list just in case. So just getting on the list doesn't get you promoted.
Speaker 2:So when it hits the fan, they have a pool they can pull from.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it might be another. Even if you would have passed all this, it might have been another six months to eight months.
Speaker 3:And I'm saying you're just on the list.
Speaker 2:It's an 18-month list-ish.
Speaker 3:You have to re-apply, saying like I'm saying it's a 18 month list, ish, because the reapply. Yeah, yeah, one of the girls that's on the previous list. She had to retest this list because her list expires in august.
Speaker 2:Um, okay, I assume it's the same test, so that seems kind of stupid, I think they mix it up a little bit, but basically, yes, the same time. But but yeah, but I'm like, but still I can't imagine she would have lost credibility to be a supervisor you see what I mean.
Speaker 3:But also she's been an acting supervisor since before then, so oh well, it was probably a cakewalk for her.
Speaker 2:So it's so. It's the way for them to have her do the job.
Speaker 3:Well, she gets 4% extra.
Speaker 1:Which you know when you're talking, half a milli 4% ain't nothing to sniff at.
Speaker 2:I mean I guess Extra 20 grand sure.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we'll just take Lou's salary, we'll tack it on the end of Jack's salary and then there you go. That's what he's going to make us For real.
Speaker 2:That's why I got to do eBay so I can afford to hang out with you guys. That's why I got to do eBay so I can afford to hang out with you guys. He's cried because it's true.
Speaker 1:Great, now he needs another shower.
Speaker 3:Awesome, you can't afford two showers in a day.
Speaker 2:No, no, you've got to put the water here.
Speaker 1:He's out here with a paper towel, just like guys. This is all I can afford.
Speaker 2:There's gas to heat the water, so I have a hot shower. Yeah, and then I'll have to watch Landman, so I can take a cold shower.
Speaker 1:He actually has a hose running from his neighbor's faucet into his bathroom, so when he has to take a second shower he just turns the faucet on.
Speaker 2:Ignore the splitter I have on the cable outside. Don't even look at that.
Speaker 3:I don't think that shit would work anymore. No, not without a cable.
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, not without a box. You have to have a box to split it up. You can't just go straight from cable to TV.
Speaker 3:Back in the day.
Speaker 2:Have cables split everywhere. I split this line. Split this line. I got six TVs hooked up.
Speaker 1:I lived in a house once where they had cable and satellite, and that was when they had the big giant satellite dishes outside oh, the RJ and we would be able to watch all the pay-per-view stuff. Because the satellite would broadcast the video but it wouldn't have an audio track. But then all the cable boxes had scrambled video, but it wouldn't have an audio track. But then all the cable boxes had scrambled video but they would put the audio through. So then all we needed to do was just line up the right. We'd be like the right audio feed with the right video feed. Then we could watch whatever.
Speaker 2:Try to sync that shit.
Speaker 1:Watch multiple Mike Tyson.
Speaker 2:I can appreciate that that's some ghetto shit right there. That's solid.
Speaker 1:Watching.
Speaker 2:Mike Tyson that that's some ghetto shit right there. God damn it. That's solid Watching.
Speaker 1:Mike Tyson fight. That's good work Watching Mike Tyson. I distinctly remember, as my friend came over and we were watching a Mike Tyson fight and it was, you know, 60 bucks or whatever it was, and the fight lasted 45 seconds and I was like man, people got fucking ripped off they were expecting that shit Like it was. It was like started at 6 o'clock and was like done at 6.05. I was like damn somebody Don King made some motherfucking money that night, jeez.
Speaker 2:I remember people talking about that that they would not get the fights because they didn't think it would last long enough.
Speaker 1:To make it worthwhile.
Speaker 3:That's why chicks aren't into me, they pay at 6 and you're kicking them out at 6.05.
Speaker 1:Jack, you pay them well, me they pay at six and you're kicking them out at 605.
Speaker 2:I was going to say, jack, you pay them well enough, they stick around.
Speaker 1:You've kept one around for decades. At this point it's true Decades. We've seen each other get old. It's weird.
Speaker 3:We've celebrated our 21st birthdays in consecutive years wow ah, we're old so anyways wait other stuff happened.
Speaker 1:Yeah, daredevil happened.
Speaker 3:Yep, daredevil happened.
Speaker 2:That was good it was kind of expected, so it was like alright, but see it's written well but it was well, I was going to say but it was executed all right, but see it's written.
Speaker 1:Well, I was going to say but it was executed, no matter what, really well. Well, and again you have to wonder if the stuff that happens at the end is because they couldn't, because the guy died a couple years ago.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm just going to mind the comic book story.
Speaker 1:Well, I'm just saying, though, it's one of those kind of creepy coincidence type of things. They had recorded all of this stuff and then knowing that between the time they knew he was dying, did they?
Speaker 2:Yeah, from what I read, they knew the situation.
Speaker 1:Okay, I just know that he passed.
Speaker 2:I didn't know any of the other?
Speaker 3:Yeah, but I didn't know any of the other.
Speaker 1:I didn't know any of the other details as far as how long ahead they knew and everything.
Speaker 3:He's actually in the Indiana Jones game. Yeah, it's his last performance Also. Tony Todd is in Indiana Jones, also his last performance.
Speaker 1:I hated fighting Tony Todd in that game. Same, just bullshit. So much of the rest of the game was really good, but when you had to fight him and he's just constantly grabbing you, you're like motherfucker. Nobody else in the game fights like this and this is all he's got.
Speaker 2:He was trying to make it your final destination.
Speaker 1:There you go.
Speaker 3:He was like give me all your candy man Did you know, like four people will get that joke.
Speaker 2:We're three of them.
Speaker 1:The guy from Indiana will get it. The guy getting us to the Des Moines Comic.
Speaker 2:Con yeah.
Speaker 1:Those guys tell jokes that I think are funny.
Speaker 2:We need to get them on board. We're out for you. Fan Expo Des Moines.
Speaker 3:Put them in our Hall H. They will fill that shit up.
Speaker 1:Oh man, we're going to end up being like Kevin Smith, where it's like the room's full and we're just sitting there riffing for three hours Just telling his stories. Hey, you remember when Kevin Smith told that funny Superman story?
Speaker 2:Remember when Kevin Smith got ditched because of the Star Wars concert. Oh, poor guy. What was that Episode 7? When that happened? Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because they had that out on the island right. Yeah, the little outside amphitheater over there, yeah, I remember.
Speaker 2:It was either 15 or 17.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think I remember you guys talking about it. We were in text talking about it.
Speaker 2:So for the fans out there who are not sure what the hell we're talking about, kevin Smith had a panel in Hall H at Comic-Con in San Diego after the Star Wars panel and his shit's banging. He's got a full crowd. People want to hear him. He just stopped there talking and it's great.
Speaker 1:He does it every year Just to quantify.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Sorry, go ahead.
Speaker 2:I'm trying to think. I was like is that valuable information? Probably actually.
Speaker 1:He does it every year, so it's's not something this isn't. This wasn't like a one-off thing, no not at all, not at all.
Speaker 2:I was gonna say, yeah, that probably makes sense, but the uh star wars panel before that were given out basically passes to go a half mile away, a half mile walk about yeah, a half mile walk to the uh, to the amphitheater where the symphony was John Williams doing a freaking concert and everybody bolted out of the 6,000 seat room and Kevin Smith had like 50 people. I mean it wasn't that bad, obviously, but I exaggerate, but it just totally destroyed his audience.
Speaker 3:If you ever get a chance to see John Williams conduct an orchestra, you fucking go.
Speaker 2:It doesn't matter. You know what? I wonder Because, jack, you just froze right there on Kun. So I wonder, like when the playback is it frozen on your side? I don't know, I'm curious, we'll find out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's right.
Speaker 2:He's right If there's an opportunity to go where John Williams is conducting the fricking symphony. You go. That's all there is to it. It's like ghostbusters man. If you ask your God, you say yes.
Speaker 1:Otherwise, otherwise this will be our viral moment of Jack calling John Williams a cunt Like yep Yep.
Speaker 2:One of those Shit, one of those bad publicity shit. There is nowadays. Used to be the thing, right, no such thing as bad publicity. Oh, there is now. You say the wrong thing, whatever. You got these freaking people who can't handle anything, so sensitive to everything. These days it's like oh my god.
Speaker 1:Jack's already getting worked up, and we haven't even made a joke about him yet.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, it's coming up.
Speaker 2:And just like that, he he sneaked the pop off. Right there it's coming, though he was telling you the truth. Everybody Wait, is that a bowling shirt? What is going on back there? Yeah, it's my celebration. Oh okay, so you're still in celebration five All right oh yeah, I don't know if that's going to work.
Speaker 1:Can you guys see that?
Speaker 2:Yes, step to your left.
Speaker 3:There you go.
Speaker 2:Right there, right there, dark side, lanes Strike them down. Oh, that's badass.
Speaker 1:Yep, I was bowling when I went to Celebration 5, and I saw this shirt and I was like yep, this will be in my bowling inventory. Where was C5? Florida.
Speaker 2:Oh, that makes sense. I ain't going there. Florida too humid, Chicago too murky, and it was in August.
Speaker 3:Exactly that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:They keep doing that shit. They don't pick April in Orlando, no, they pick freaking August.
Speaker 1:This was Empire right. Was this an Empire celebration?
Speaker 3:Yeah, because the logo was Boba Fett, like above the V.
Speaker 2:You know what? I've only been to Indy Anaheim twice and LA I think. I think that's all. I've been to so far. Like I said, I won't go to Chicago and I won't go to Orlando.
Speaker 1:It's not hardcore enough, Like these motherfuckers right here. Wait hang on.
Speaker 3:Can we do that? No, because you're on my left.
Speaker 2:There you go, see on my screen, you both went to you both. What the hell? No, I mean again, I, I don't, I, I can't be that uncomfortable because I'm gonna be pissy the whole time and I can't enjoy myself. And then if I go to chicago, I'm gonna need kevlar and I'll be holding my wallet the whole time waiting for somebody to steal it or shoot me. So it's like not going to chicago, I'm not going to orlando oh in august, it was wild.
Speaker 1:The last time we were in chicago was day one. It was like 75, like I remember taking the uber from the airport to the hotel and it was like 75, not a cloud in the sky. The next day I get up and there's fucking snow on the ground, you remember that shit jack.
Speaker 2:It was crazy. What, what time of the year was this? When was this?
Speaker 1:I'd have to look it up Because out here it will snow through Mother's Day out here. It might have been April, but I'd have to look it up. That's doable. I woke up and I looked out the window and I'm like is there just snow on the floor? What the fuck? Yesterday it was 75 degrees. What the fuck is going on right?
Speaker 2:now Y'all remember Indy right Trying to get them George Lucas tickets. It was raining and I camped out in that shit. It was great. I'm not going to lie. I missed that. I missed those days.
Speaker 1:Because all the queues were outside they had no queues inside at all. They were like oh, you guys can wait outside and you're sitting outside you to do Like we've got this sweet Yoda hoodie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but, but. But you know what, though? But it felt like I was a part of it though. So that whole that's why I mean that when I say I miss it it was like that felt legit. It was like, all right, cool.
Speaker 2:And then I camped out overnight to get the, and then somebody took my spot in line. Maybe might have been my ex, but no, it was Charles or Gretchen, one of them two. They came and took my spot. Then I went so I could take a shower and clean it up, and then came back and joined them. That was fun. I remember when I first got there it was time to kill and I hadn't had White Castle in forever. Celebration for Indy Celebration 3. Hotel was not even a mile straight Same sidewalk. I just had to walk up the sidewalk and I was going to hit a White Castle on my left-hand side and I had that for dinner that night after I landed. That stuck with me. The other thing that stuck with me was I was staying in a hotel where there was like a murder two weeks before that.
Speaker 3:Thankfully you might go to Chicago. Thankfully, yeah, thankfully we'll go to Chicago thankfully yeah, I'll go to.
Speaker 2:Indy, though I'll go back to Indy again, not Chicago though, which is more likely to happen in Chicago or Indy? That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I would be hard pressed for them ever to have a celebration outside of Orlando or LA again.
Speaker 2:I just don't that's what I said. Jack wasn't sure because I was like they have no reason to have the Disney backup plan in Orlando and then anaheim. Why would you not ever have it in anaheim?
Speaker 3:disney owned it when they went to chicago, so but it might have already been pre that sometimes they do those contracts years in advance.
Speaker 2:That's true not that far, though. That was what chicago 2019. They bought that shit seven years earlier, so there's no way, like I guarantee. They know where 2027 is going to be, but only 2027. They don't know where the next one after that is going to be. They don't know where 2030 is going to be. I assume 2030, because 50th of Empire, yeah, so I'm assuming 2030. So 2027, I'm almost certain they know where that is because they're going to announce it. I'm guessing in Japan.
Speaker 1:So 2026 will be Orlando, right.
Speaker 3:I don't think they'll do a 26.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:I thought they were going to go back and forth.
Speaker 1:I thought they had said something about that.
Speaker 2:But it was every two years. They only did 22-23 because of the COVID year that pushed Anaheim Remember that was supposed to be 2020.
Speaker 1:So two years, do we want to put our predictions down where it's going to be? I mean, it's going to be Orlando.
Speaker 2:I'm going Anaheim, even though they did it in 22. I think they're going to go back. But I would not be surprised If it's Orlando, chicago, I would be very surprised. Any other place than Orlando, anaheim, I'd be surprised. And obviously a new spot, I'd be super surprised.
Speaker 3:We're all crashing with Lou.
Speaker 2:I was like coming back to Denver.
Speaker 1:Wait, what See? That was surprising. I think, depending on how big they make it, there's an outside chance it could be LA, Because Anaheim is pretty small in the grand scheme of things. Where LA is huge, the convention center that is.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know, I get you. No, I get you. I just think because of the Disney connection, they'll just do Anaheim or Orlando. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No reason not to take those extra bucks, because especially people oh, I only have a pass for Thursday or Thursday-Sunday. Well then, I know what you're doing Friday-Saturday, because I know what I'd be doing Friday-Saturday if I was in that situation. So I would try to get a Friday-Saturday badge and then Disney on the ends. I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, I think that's why it's smart for you guys to wait until the end of that week to go, because if you try to go on Monday and Tuesday after celebration, those places are going to be.
Speaker 2:Or before.
Speaker 1:Yeah, those places are going to be crazy.
Speaker 2:Wednesday, thursday before, monday, tuesday after. You're right about that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, those weekends yeah, you're right about that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, those, those weekends, yeah, those days are just going to, yeah, so although, speaking to this, this kind of goes into what you guys talked about earlier that I don't know about. So it'll be actual reactions from Lou. You guys said you had the schedule. You guys looked at it, I did not look at it.
Speaker 2:So I saw it was out. I was like I another when I got home. I did not want to look at it, I just wanted to veg, I didn't want to think about anything, I was playing my puzzle games and was like, no, I don't want to do it, I'll look at it later. So this is basically will be my first time, other than you know, hey, there's this panel, or in the, in the, in the thread that came out, or just go on the Facebook page and people like, oh, I'm going to go to this panel. That's all I know. So Is that the?
Speaker 1:intro to the Star Wars segment of the podcast.
Speaker 2:No, it's called an erection. That's okay, alright, do you?
Speaker 1:guys want to do it by time and then do all three days, or do you want to go by?
Speaker 2:day. I don't want to go through the whole thing. We're going to bore a bunch of people.
Speaker 1:Well, I'm just going to give you the highlights.
Speaker 2:Yeah, highlights. Okay, start with one day. Yeah, start with Friday.
Speaker 1:So, Friday it seems like every day in the morning they're doing droid racing, which is crazy, acceptable.
Speaker 2:No interest for morning stuff. I'll be at the store.
Speaker 1:The first thing will be Friday at 10 am. Living your Star Wars story in the theme parks.
Speaker 2:You said highlights.
Speaker 1:Well, I'd be interested to highlight he was in the thread, he was excited about the theme park ones.
Speaker 2:So yeah, but he's gonna be at the store too yeah maybe I'll send the girls.
Speaker 3:I'll send the girls go to this.
Speaker 1:Oh, there you go there you go, yeah, uh, and then uh, mando and grogu. At 10 am, 10 as well, uh, 10, 30, they're doing star Wars TV ads through the years. That might kind of be interesting. I mean that would be, interesting 11.30 for Lou. Dark Side for Life, why the bad guys are so impactful and just way cooler.
Speaker 2:If I'm done with the store, I would go straight to that panel.
Speaker 1:You are correct 11.30 is also the Hasbro Star Wars panel, 12 o'clock Ahsoka's Underworld Mythology, Folklore, Fairy Tales, Tales and Joseph Campbell. So let's see Light and Magic, A Glimpse into the Magic of Season 2.
Speaker 2:Season 1 was awesome.
Speaker 1:Season 2 of what Light and Magic, the Story of ILM. It was one of the first I think it was in the first set of things. It was one of the first I think it was in like the first stuff, the first set of things that came out on.
Speaker 2:Disney plus? Yeah, I think so. Oh that, oh my God, that goes back six years. Yeah, yeah, Five years, five and a half years, okay, all right, that was cool.
Speaker 1:Um, let's see, that's kind of our shit.
Speaker 2:I think I agree with you on that one. Let's see when I started collecting again, when we all started collecting.
Speaker 1:Again 2 o'clock is Lucasfilm publishing stories from a galaxy far, far away.
Speaker 2:Probably just talking about the books or the comics too right.
Speaker 1:No, the comics will be Marvel, right or IDW.
Speaker 2:Is it Marvel? Still no, it's.
Speaker 3:Marvel. Sometimes they let Dark Horse.
Speaker 2:Do some of them.
Speaker 1:Okay, you're right 330 on Friday, Lucasfilm Animation's 20th anniversary.
Speaker 3:Hells. Yeah, dave's going to be up in there, so you know he's going to announce Tales of whatever Tales of's going to announce Tales of whatever. Tales of the Clones or Tales of the Exactly. Don't make that shit face, lou. He's coming back to animation.
Speaker 2:That is true. That is true. Animation was where he was good. He fell off when he started sucking on Kathleen's tit.
Speaker 3:It was Jon Favreau who was a bad influence on him.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm. I don't care about that Five o'clock, doug Chang, designing the Worlds of Skeleton crew.
Speaker 2:I've never heard Doug.
Speaker 1:Chang talk, so that might be kind of interesting.
Speaker 2:You all really love yourselves some. Doug Chang, I heard him. Oh, I don't know if, jack, you were with me, but I heard him in Anaheim. He had a panel.
Speaker 3:He was actually pretty cool. He was very well-spoken. Yes yes.
Speaker 1:It was worth it. I've always enjoyed any YouTube video that he's talking, especially even back with 99 when he was talking about all the. I mean he basically was like the McQuarrie of the prequels.
Speaker 2:He still is honestly, I was going to was like the McQuarrie of the prequels Shit. He still is. Honestly, that's still what he's doing Back in the prequels. It was him and Rick McCallum. That's all you heard from all the time, Saturday, 10 am.
Speaker 1:You got Andor Up at the store.
Speaker 2:Likely at the store. Actually I say that, but it really depends If I get all my shopping that I want done on Friday and I don't have the pins and I'm not a huge fan of the pins that are other than the badge pins, badge art pins the other ones I was like eh, okay.
Speaker 1:Which we never got clarification on if they were actually going to release all of them or if it was just going to be a selection.
Speaker 2:It seems like based off of a circumstantial reading and all that. That. It was just going to be a selection.
Speaker 3:It seems like based off of a circumstantial reading and all that that it was just going to be those five, A selection of yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but the problem is a selection of could be five of 17, but they could have five more and it's really 10 of 17. But a selection of definitely does not mean all we know they're not doing all. That's all we know.
Speaker 1:This one might be kind of cool. So at 12 o'clock they have Science of the Revenge of the Sith. Revenge of the Sith is full of connections to real-world science and technology. Can you really battle over a river of lava? Almost, why, no? Why no Poisonous gases, bro? No, no, no, you were answering the question. Yeah, I think this is as close as we're going to get Lou to your law stuff, your law series, because this one actually has a doctor of robotics, a doctor of volcanology particle physics.
Speaker 2:Oh, this is like my legal geeks.
Speaker 1:Yeah, james Floyd is hosting, so that might be something. 1 o'clock will be Ahsoka.
Speaker 2:Plus his bad guy stuff. Wait, say that again.
Speaker 1:1 o'clock is Ahsoka 1 o'clock is Ahsoka, the Ahsoka presentation.
Speaker 2:Really that late in the afternoon.
Speaker 3:Yeah, well because, well, because, andor's before and if Andor shows all their first three episodes, their first arc, then that's a three-hour panel.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so if it starts at 10 and they do an hour and then they show the first two, yeah, exactly, That'll roll you right into it. I assume they have the main stage and then a bunch of smaller they have one stage and then they have two simulcast stages, so I'm sure those ones will probably not be hard to get into. Yeah, as a simulcast stages, I'm sure those ones will probably not be hard to get into, yeah.
Speaker 2:As a matter of fact, I'm the type who I wouldn't even fight the main stage, I would just go straight to the simulcast.
Speaker 1:I thought the queues were for the main room, or are they for all three of them? I think it's all three rooms dude.
Speaker 2:You're talking about the lottery to get into an overcast over floor room.
Speaker 1:That would suck if they were like hey, you won, oh alright.
Speaker 2:I think it was. I thought you could just walk into one of those. I know you could do it at San Diego, but the Anaheim had a lottery for overflow. Holy crap. I don't remember that that sucks. We'll figure it out as we get closer, obviously this week.
Speaker 1:We have two months as of today boys.
Speaker 2:Yeah two months today. We land a month from today.
Speaker 1:We on the train 230, doug Chang's master class working in the Star Wars art department. That one might actually be more interesting than the other one because it seems more broad. I do like broads.
Speaker 3:A conversation with oscar isaac at 245. That may be kind of cool, but I did hear he's coming back as apocalypse in a new avenger movie.
Speaker 1:Well, that wouldn't surprise. They're gonna bring everybody back like let's be real. I agree they're gonna be everybody that has ever been part of the mcu is gonna have something to do, regardless of how lame they were. Screening Siege of Mandalore.
Speaker 2:Is he going to do Apocalypse?
Speaker 3:It's the four-episode arc of the last season of Clone Wars.
Speaker 1:yeah, the Dad Badge Podcast. Yes, they did, and that's kind of it.
Speaker 3:There's a couple of vintage japanese things that might be kind of cool, but anything on sunday I'm nothing on sunday, sunday, sunday, sunday oh shit, actually sunday is pretty as far as like stuff goes.
Speaker 1:It's pretty stacked. It looks like, uh, history in a galaxy far, far away. First Thing in the Morning, first Look Star Wars Visions Volume 3. That'll be fun To the Japanese Garrison Celebrating 25 Years in the 501st Legion. All the Stormtroopers gonna be short. I'm your Father. Vintage Star Wars Toys vs Lego Star Wars. And now, all of a sudden, all of our passports just got revoked.
Speaker 3:Oh shit, I need a. That's a racist button.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you do. You need some Uncle Ruckus buttons. Over there Is there a closing ceremony?
Speaker 1:or talk panel. We're getting there.
Speaker 2:I thought you were done 11.15, Kurosawa and Star Wars.
Speaker 1:That might be kind of cool.
Speaker 2:That might be cool.
Speaker 1:But at the same time as Disney experiences building the galaxy with Walt Disney Imagineering, which is probably what they're going to talk about, all the stuff that's going to be happening, the changes to Smuggler's Run and stuff like that. Ilm presents the Mandalorian and Beyond. Behind the scenes of the Mandalorian Book of Boba Fett, star Ahsoka and more. That might be kind of cool. I like behind the scenes shit. Good shows, I agree. The heroic sidekicks of Star Wars. Maybe they'll talk about Omega 50 Years of Magic Celebrating She'll have her own movie soon, don't worry about that, yeah, no.
Speaker 2:Omega, 50 Years of Magic Celebrating, she'll have her own movie soon. Don't worry about that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no shit 50 Years of Magic Celebrating the Legacy of ILM. I'd be down with that.
Speaker 2:How was All right? That seems like it'd be a general Comic-Con panel, not a Star Wars Celebration panel.
Speaker 3:But ILM's Star Wars?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I know it's part of it, but I'm thinking of all the other shit that ILM does, which is everything, which is why I thought that would be a general panel, not a celebration.
Speaker 1:Looks like Ahmed Best is hosting with Doug Chang. John Dahl. We love John Dahl. John Rob Coleman. Canole and a couple people that I don't recognize their names, but I'm guessing they're 4.30 on Sunday.
Speaker 2:I thought they closed at 4 on Sunday, so how could it be at 4.30?
Speaker 1:Well, the thing starts at 3, so I'm like okay, or 3.30, sorry, the closing ceremony starts at 3. And none of them have Okay 3 o'clock, 3.30 to 4. So they'll be done at 4, saying get the hell out.
Speaker 2:You don't gotta go home, but you can't stay here.
Speaker 1:Sayonara, please go to Tokyo Disney.
Speaker 2:No, they don't care, they're a franchise.
Speaker 1:I mean, they still make money off you going.
Speaker 2:I don't think so, because you just pay your franchise fee usually is what happens.
Speaker 3:We don't, uh, so I was looking. Pirates of the Caribbean is closed while we're there, which is very sad because they still have the winch auction where you buy the, buy the witches, buy it by the.
Speaker 2:I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1:Lou never saw the OG pirates, yeah, no it's.
Speaker 3:You had a big banner by a winch, so he's up on stage selling the fat chick. And then the redhead is over there in her dress and her big show them your.
Speaker 1:Uh, what the hell does he say is over there in her dress and her big boobs, show him your. What the hell does he say Show him your.
Speaker 3:Show him your hindquarters.
Speaker 1:No, it's not hindquarters. It's Shit when he's telling the girl, the auction girl, to turn around. Yeah, I don't remember what they say, though.
Speaker 3:Whatever, the back of the boat is Aft. Yeah, and I'm like we want some redhead.
Speaker 1:We want the redhead. And then they had the People in the circle Chasing each other, like now it has the girls with food and the guys chasing. Back. In the day it was just the guys chasing the girls. That's more realistic.
Speaker 2:No, just trying to get An opportunity to pay for their services. Guys chasing the girls, that's more realistic. No, they're just trying to get an opportunity to pay for their services. I saw man of La Mancha. Those services are paid for.
Speaker 3:So that's kind of sad. What else? The only one that's closed, that one. And Winnie the Pooh oh, that one's popular too. I know All the videos are like you've got to go on Winnie the pooh. Oh, that one's popular too. I know all the videos are like you've got to go on winnie the pooh, yeah, yeah yeah, but yeah no, that one's closed. So sad panda, I guess I have to go back again 28.
Speaker 2:I already have it planned with 20 because I expect 27 to be celebration somewhere. So 28 is already my radar.
Speaker 1:To go back but they they might have it in London or Germany as well.
Speaker 2:I doubt it, not in 28. Because, again, assuming a 50-year anniversary in 27, they're not going to do another one the following year.
Speaker 1:But I'm saying the next international one, I don't think they'll go back to Japan. No, no, no, I'm going back to Japan. Oh, just to go, just to go.
Speaker 2:I am going in 28 just to go, because I missed all the stuff, because the way the schedule is playing out, I'm only going to make it to Okinawa. So I was like I'm going to fly into Okinawa and then go to mainland after 28. But if they do London again, I don't know 29, 30, whatever. If they do 30 for Empire, obviously it's Empire. I don't care where. I'll even go to Chicago for 50th of April and I will show up in Kevlar. Just so y'all know what are you cosplaying?
Speaker 1:as A concerned citizen, no, you're cosplaying as Elon Musk. You're just going to have a little fake baby on your shoulders and Kevlar looking awkward under your black shirt.
Speaker 2:That's what it takes to get to Chicago. Man, that's fine, I'll get there, I'll drive, I'll show my Tesla.
Speaker 1:Lou's showing up like.
Speaker 2:Chicago would love you.
Speaker 1:Lou's showing up like the Hangover with got a little baby fake baby and a baby Bjorn Kevlar.
Speaker 3:So he fits in.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, cosplay is going to be for real. Well, yeah. So whatever freaking 2030 is, don't care, I'll be there Again. I'm presuming they're not going to be idiots and not have one, that you expect 27, you expect 30, you expect 33. So we'll see what really happens, but yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it'll be interesting if they have it in 29 or 30. Why? Because, if it's 25, 27, 29 would be the two years.
Speaker 2:You know, what they could do is do a small like, let's say they are going to go international. They could do Anaheim or Orlando in 29. Just no real well, because it would still be anniversary of episode 9. Yeah, so you'd still have 10 years there. And then I mean, think about it, they did do 22 Anaheim, 23 London. So, granted, I understand it was because 22 got pushed.
Speaker 2:It's not out of the question yeah, Exactly so you could be onto something 27, 29, 30. And then they skip and they do 32, 33 again, or something like that.
Speaker 1:Well, and now that the I think D23, you also have to take that into account too, because they don't want those right next to each other, because they want everybody who has already dumped a ton of money. Well, they want people to dump a ton of money into both and not make them choose by having them. So I'm guessing that's why these are in, the later ones are gonna. You know, the one two years ago was in august because d23 was in april d23 is even years right?
Speaker 3:no, they alternate, it's every year. I feel like it's every year.
Speaker 2:They did it last year, right, because it's not this year. Right so it's even years, yeah, and then they switch between Anaheim and Orlando for that. Right. So it's four years for each one Right, like the Olympics, basically.
Speaker 1:What do you guys think about San Diego Comic-Con going international?
Speaker 3:Meh, I don't care about that. I don't care about the fucking cruise or any of that shit, whatever.
Speaker 2:That too Didn't faze me one bit.
Speaker 3:That's happening.
Speaker 2:Yeah, pretty much Well it's good for them, though Maybe this will help with every year, them talking about how they don't have any money and blah blah, blah blah yeah, the only things on my radar, honestly, and not in any particular order, but maybe a new york comic-con I'll hit that one of these times wonder con, eccc uh, just to say I been there, you know, it's not like, oh, I need to make this a regular thing. No, I just want to go there at least once, and I think my order would be NYCC, probably WonderCon, and then ECCC, new York, yeah, nycc, wondercon, eccc, that's probably my order, then maybe PAX or GenCon, so GenCon might be on my list. Just because there's Indianapolis Uh-huh, yeah, that same hotel. Wait, daedalus, uh-huh, stay at that same hotel, wait till somebody gets murdered, then book it and then walk up to White Castle. They need to time it around fall, go catch a cold skate and it's Indoor Stadium. That would be kind of cool. I'd be right with that.
Speaker 1:When we were there, the RCA Dome was still a thing. That was way back in the day, that was way before Lucas Oil yeah, before Lucas Oil, was it way.
Speaker 2:I thought it was shortly after that.
Speaker 1:I remember looking through the double doors and seeing signs that were promoting the RCA Dome while we were promoting the rca dome, while we were at celebration I know, but wasn't it like, not even two years later, or so it? Was it wasn't too long it was pretty. It was pretty soon thereafter, yeah, so oh, I did go see mickey 17 on tuesday yeah how was it?
Speaker 1:I liked it, but it was it. It's definitely a slow burn. It's funny how we were talking afterwards how we've gone and seen Companion and Mickey 17 and there was a third movie that was a smaller, almost indie movie, and all three of them we were like, oh yeah, these are all really good. But then we go and see Captain America and the bigger movies and those ones are like disappointments, where we go to the other smaller movies and they end up being really good. Like Mickey 17 was good. I just was not. I went in tired and it was one of those movies that you can't go in being tired because like it's slow enough that you're just like, okay, like I'm enjoying what I'm, I'm enjoying what I'm seeing, but there's not enough stuff going on to not make me go. Oh wait, oh, did he die again?
Speaker 3:What's going on?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, uh, but the humor, it was really, it was really funny. Uh, like the characterizations that, like Mark Ruffalo and Tony Collette do, as far as like leading this, this ship and the reasons why he's doing it and everything, are pretty funny. Um, all the acting was spot on.
Speaker 3:Probably going to take a big one to see that. And Nova Cain, because wife and little are going to Disneyland for her birthday. Nice, this coming up, mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:I thought you were delaying that and going into the month.
Speaker 3:Now I need that little taco girl. Why not both? Well, we'll give you a little toast.
Speaker 2:Fair enough, I thought you were delaying that and going into the month. Now I need that little taco girl. Why not both? No, are you going to end of the month also? Yeah, I just want you saying that.
Speaker 1:I want an audio recording of you saying that, If you don't why not both? It's good that that you could switch that panel, because you're going to fill up those 15 sounds like yeah um, but yeah, it's the season of four starts.
Speaker 3:It already had my shopping list for I gots to go because, uh, on that day I even made a note on my phone.
Speaker 1:So on the 28th Death Star.
Speaker 3:Bucket Coaxium Sipper, the Metal Yoda Tumbler, the Mythosaur Mug at Oga's and Light Saber Swizzle.
Speaker 2:Sticks. Yeah, you're going to have to get an extra of that Mythosaur Mug.
Speaker 1:Or three.
Speaker 2:That mug was the shit.
Speaker 3:Right, and it goes with our Loathcats and everything else you get from Oga's.
Speaker 1:And my Endor Yep.
Speaker 3:My Endor Cup, yeah, so now they have the Porg, the Endor Cup, the Lothcat and the Mythosaur.
Speaker 1:I think I have all of them except for the Mythosaur, Woohoo. And then my friend gave me the Tiki mug with the Jawa on it. It's been real hard not to just lean into that and just buy all of those.
Speaker 3:And then on May 4th the Jawa sipper and the Clone Trooper bucket come out.
Speaker 1:And that's just the inverted Clone. Trooper head the helmet.
Speaker 3:Yeah. Yeah, it's like the Stormtrooper one from last year, but it's a 501st clone.
Speaker 2:now the snap was oh, the opening was in the bottom. I forgot yeah.
Speaker 3:And of course, that's right after we get back from fucking Japan.
Speaker 2:So the right the following week.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:It's like or that yeah, yeah, we get back on Saturday and it's been very like six days later. Off you go, dude, that's me and Disneyland in the same week 10 days later I'm I'm back for my niece's birthday, so shit, that's going to be a quick turnaround, though that's like you're going to just be at the birthday party and yeah, wake up. Sorry, sorry, it's 2 am when I'm at no on the bright side, though.
Speaker 2:we do get back Saturday. I don't come back to Colorado until Monday, so I'll have a couple of days to get that figured out.
Speaker 3:I guess we got to watch Revenge of the Sith too.
Speaker 2:I'm going to get tickets for that one, and then Mother's Day when I'm back in Vegas as well. I'll come back two weeks later Bernice's birthday happened to be there when it's Mother's Day on that Sunday and then fly back on Monday. I'm going to need a vacation from these vacations For real, though.
Speaker 1:And then we've got Andor dropping that week too, Right before we come back.
Speaker 3:Yeah, mm-hmm, yeah, that'll be my return home entertainment. I'm going to watch season one on the way and then season two on the way back.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you get three episodes. Yeah, three-episode arc, the first arc we'll be able to watch on the way back.
Speaker 1:There's like a lot of TV shows coming out.
Speaker 2:When does it come out?
Speaker 3:22nd, 22nd, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Daredevil ends the 15th, so it comes out the 22nd.
Speaker 3:I was hoping that it dropped on, you know, the weekend that Celebration was and then I'd have two weeks.
Speaker 1:No, I think it's the following Tuesday after Celebration.
Speaker 3:Sam. That's why I don't get why people are like, yeah, we should go to the Andor panel so we can see the first episode. Fuck that you can watch it three days later. Right, go, do something more fun at Celebration. Yeah go to the store.
Speaker 2:Go to the store. You're going to be there five hours in line anyway, right.
Speaker 1:Stop being ignorant, or not? Some?
Speaker 2:of us dealt with Celebration 3. Wasn't there one?
Speaker 1:year of celebration where by the end of the second day, there wasn't even a line you could just walk in. I don't remember which celebration it was, but I thought there was one that the ones that went out of merchandise. Was it the last LA one where everything was just gone? It might have been, I don't remember the last LA one, you guys going to the store.
Speaker 2:I thought we all went as a group at one point Wasn't there only one LA one.
Speaker 1:Yeah or sorry. The Anaheim, the last Anaheim one Okay, anaheim 2022.
Speaker 2:We went to the store every day.
Speaker 1:Right, but. But I know we at one point all of us went into the store together and there was like no line.
Speaker 3:We didn't wait at all.
Speaker 1:That's also because most of the shit was sold out. Yeah, there wasn't anything there, we were just like okay well, what are the? Scraps. And can we order badges Right? Yep, because in the 10 of them that they've done, they've never been able to figure out the badges.
Speaker 3:Never.
Speaker 1:It's the stupidest thing, it's the one frustrating.
Speaker 2:No, it wasn't Anaheim 22,. Not bad, or was it 15 that I'm thinking of, anaheim, where you can just go to that little round table by the entrance and you just fill out the damn paperwork right there.
Speaker 1:I don't even think I got. I didn't even get the 22 badges.
Speaker 2:I don't know. Oh, you're right, in 22, there was like a post-ordering situation and it was shitty, but 15 was fantastic, it was 15. Post-ordering situation and it was shitty, but 15 was fantastic, it's 15. You just walked up to that. There was a person sitting there at a little round like a bars table. Yeah, just walked up there, felt the paperwork you're good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they tore off the piece, they handed you the other one, and then you, you paid right there and it was good to go. 2015 was smooth, yeah you're right, 22, 22 so yeah, well, because they were like oh, you have to order it afterwards, and then they were everything's up, and then you went there and it was all gone.
Speaker 2:Like they didn't have a queue or anything that one makes no sense. Why would they ever cap that? Just put them up, whoever wants them just make that many. That to me is bad business.
Speaker 3:They didn't ask us though.
Speaker 2:No, some stuff you want to be limited, especially like you're in the store or whatever. Okay, but something like badges, badges, pins, magnets, any of that stuff. Make as many as people want. And I don't mean the trading pins, because those are the collectible aspect of that, but the basic pins. If you want the, what is the show?
Speaker 3:pins.
Speaker 2:The show art. Is that what it's called the show art, key art? Is that what it's, the key art? In a magnet form, button form, pin form, whatever form you want. Make as many as people ask for.
Speaker 1:Or limit it to 1,000, right, but make them numbered.
Speaker 2:One or the other.
Speaker 1:So that you say you have number 842 out of 1,000, which they don't do yeah, I'm going to go either way. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Open-ended or numbered limited. Yeah, ah, ridiculous.
Speaker 1:Whatever, whatever I Ridiculous. Whatever, I'm sure it'll be amazing this year, guys.
Speaker 3:Yes, If we know nothing else from Reed.
Speaker 1:They always come up with solutions to the problems from the last time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's played out really well this year. People still bitching about the freaking art show failure. I'm still waiting to hear back on mine After mine got cancelled and everything both of my orders got charged a freaking art show failure. Well, I'm still waiting to hear back on mine. I mean, uh, they, after mine got canceled and everything both of my orders got charged and it wasn't like it's pending, it went through. I've already paid off the credit card, uh, for those two. So they told me they'll get back to me later and I was like I'll wait. As I know, the lady was gone at ECCC, so I'll wait and chill.
Speaker 2:And now that we're a week and a half later from that sale tomorrow, I'm going to reach out and say, hey, you told me you're going to give me some information on what the situation is. I'm kind of waiting with that situation is. I mean I'm not beeline be lining it in the exhibit hall to go get this piece of art. But I mean I actually didn't have to and if they're going to charge me for it, I got to imagine it's legit. But they also canceled my order. So I'm going to have a canceled order and not a complete order or whatever. So it's like don't get me wrong, I'll have my car statement with me. My statement with me is like uh-uh, you charge me for this if it's not resolved by then.
Speaker 2:And then, worst case scenario, I'll just call and say, hey, they charged me and didn't actually give me product. They charged me twice. Yeah, the pins I didn't think there was a problem, the pins other than not everybody getting the email. That was bad a couple of weeks ago or a month ago. And then the art. What was the lane reservation? Yes, which was dumb as fuck. Okay, opens at five or four, whatever time zone you're in. Opens at the top of the hour, but we're going to send you your link at two or four minutes past the hour, like what is wrong with you people you couldn't even get into the facebook group first before I got the email I got it off of twitter, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then I got my email and I had three. I had three, I had my, did I have three. I had two tabs open on my laptop and my phone, because I used my phone for the Twitter connection and then my laptop and my phone. One worked but I couldn't figure it out, my fat fingers couldn't figure it out right. So I could have gotten a Friday whistle, but I could have gotten a Saturday early on. But I shut down the phone and just left it on my computer. And then Saturday and Sunday were open and I was like, well, I'd rather have the earlier time on sunday than the later time on saturday in case they restock. And then that's when you said pick sunday in case there's a daily pin. I'm like I'm already on it, not for that reason, but I'm already on it right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was very disorganized because I picked two times. I picked two times when I, when I got in Saturday morning, was still available and I picked 11 o'clock and then clicked add to cart and it was like, sorry, sold out. So then I had to go back through it again and by the time I got back through it it was 12 o'clock and they did the same thing and it was like, oh, sorry, sold out. So then I was like, okay, I'm going to go like two. That's why I ended up with 130, because I'm like I'm not going to pick the top one because everybody's picking the top one and then it went through.
Speaker 1:But I was just like that's stupid, Like why, even if you have people that have it in their cart, then get it.
Speaker 2:I've always said that, even with not Comic-Con, with Funko, when they were more popular, it's if the moment you add it to your cart you take it out of inventory and then that way it's guaranteed once you go to the queue and if you change your mind afterwards and it goes back out in inventory, but the moment you add it to your cart, dude pull it from the inventory.
Speaker 1:It's not that hard of software but I'll also say that the way that comic that san diego did the queues would have worked way better than what celebration did, where you put everybody into one.
Speaker 2:You just got a button.
Speaker 1:Well, you got a bunch of you got 10 tickets and you got to pick which time and which day you wanted to go, and then a week later they went through and just boom the lottery. I think that would have went you like the lottery better than than trying to do the mad scramble and trying to get into the. Yeah, I would, I would have.
Speaker 2:I like that a lot better, because then at least you could say okay, I'm gonna put six tickets on friday at 10 am, where everybody else is doing six tickets, but then you can say okay, I'm gonna do saturday, two on saturday, two on sunday is my backup plan yeah, like, then at least you're getting something in the morning, or if you want to do afternoon whatever, like and then here's the here's the other dumb thing this this all happened Thursday, right For the lane reservation, and they couldn't just wait two days, since the next day the schedule came out, and then on Saturday maybe, do this.
Speaker 2:So, people know. If it's like, oh wait, I want to go to this panel, I'm going to go to that panel. Therefore, I'm going to make a lane reservation for this other date and time. It's like y'all couldn't wait two freaking days to do this.
Speaker 3:It's like so stupid, that part was dumb I agree, but you know what I've made youtube? Because when we get back from japan I'll just watch it all over again on youtube.
Speaker 1:Anyways, yeah, if they hopefully they put them up they are.
Speaker 2:I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not. I'm not even gonna be fighting over any kind of panels just because of that. It's like dude, they're all, they're always online. Is the experience fantastic? Yes, and if I can get into some shit, I'm going to try, but I'm not gonna worry about it if I don't. It's like all right, I'm gonna walk the floor again. I'm gonna go check out the exhibit. I'm gonna go wait in the store line if I feel like, I mean, there's plenty enough that I'm not worried about it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah I mean, I'll go in the first hour of Andor in one of the overflow rooms, but I'm not going to sit there and watch the episodes, I'll dip because I'm like, okay, I'm going to wait and watch this shit with you guys, unless we decide to stick and watch, if we make that call to stay and do whatever. I'm using Andor as an example.
Speaker 2:Bottom line we're going to find out. We're going to find out a lot of shit. Yep and Jax right. Every time I go to the Facebook page or whatever it's like, there are a lot of rookies on here. They don't get it.
Speaker 3:They don't know nothing about nothing, bro.
Speaker 1:They just don't get it. Mm-mm, that's all right. When it comes to the celebration part is going to be the same because it's ran by the same people. Exactly.
Speaker 3:Cons is cons. They're all run the same anyways. Yep, no matter how you look at it, the only thing that's going to be different is how they queue, because it's Japan and you've got to read the whole sign.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you can't just read the first two lines and be good. I've got all three translation apps on my phone now. Everybody's going to be walking around with their phone just scanning all the signs, you would think they will have them in English as well.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they, I'm, I, they for sure, yeah, but just still people are going to be like tens of people to Google glasses on, just like, hey, what's going?
Speaker 2:on. Yeah, they're going to be the dude, the Europeans who don't know English or Japanese or some other country. You know those ones. I could see a Brazilian who doesn't know English or Japanese or whatever. That would be interesting to watch those fuckers walk around.
Speaker 3:That's when they catch them bows so I can get in front of them. Yep, get my lute on, move bitch.
Speaker 2:Exactly. It's like y'all go ahead and take your time, but you're not blocking me. I'm not waiting for your ass.
Speaker 1:Jack's going to learn how to say move bitch in five different languages by the time you get there.
Speaker 2:Know what? Rapid fire, grab the phone and it's going to be whatever. Move, move, move. It's going to be move bitch, and then Japanese, german, french I'm just going to keep switching it out as I'm walking. Put that shit on cycle.
Speaker 3:We're going to get arrested.
Speaker 2:How was your?
Speaker 1:trip to Japan. Well, Lou got arrested.
Speaker 2:He got his tattoos yeah. Ain't nobody going to be shocked If you come back and tell them the story Lou got arrested. They're like okay, not surprised, what for?
Speaker 3:That wasn't even on our Deadpool. We didn't even have that as a bet.
Speaker 2:Right, yeah, that was our free square.
Speaker 1:That was even money.
Speaker 2:Right Free space in the Beagle card was Lou got arrested?
Speaker 1:Lou was shaking the panty machine.
Speaker 3:Give me my panties. Real Lou hungry Shit.
Speaker 2:Lou me my panties Real. Lou hungry.
