Vaguely Inconsistent

Three Friends Talk Movies, Politics, and Everything That Makes Their Nipples Hard

JDL Season 2 Episode 4

Send us a text message! Tell us what you think!

Ever wonder what it's like to eavesdrop on three friends with zero filters and boundless opinions? Welcome to our raw, unscripted journey through pop culture, politics, and personal stories that will have you laughing, nodding in agreement, and occasionally questioning our sanity.

This week, we're diving headfirst into Hollywood's box office woes, specifically breaking down Snow White's disastrous $43 million opening (against projections of $86 million). We explore how Rachel Zegler's public persona affected the film's reception so dramatically that Disney canceled European red carpet events. Meanwhile, we praise "Black Bag" starring Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett for its tight 90-minute runtime that respects viewers' time in an age of bloated blockbusters.

Our Marvel analysis gets deep with an extensive breakdown of "Daredevil: Born Again," where we compare it to the Netflix original series, praising improved dialogue while questioning the absence of the rich B-stories and side characters that made the original so compelling. When will Matt Murdock fully embrace his Daredevil identity again? We have thoughts.

The conversation takes unexpected turns through political territory as we discuss oligarchies and the hypocrisy of politicians who only notice systematic problems when their team isn't in power. Our unfiltered takes showcase our willingness to call out inconsistency regardless of political affiliation.

Between serious topics, we share our excitement for upcoming travels to Japan, wonder about Japanese movie theater experiences, and geek out over Star Wars collectibles available during Season of the Force. Our genuine camaraderie shines through as we debate movie choices, plan Disney visits, and bemoan Hollywood's tendency to ruin movies with overly revealing trailers.

Join us for conversations that feel like hanging out with old friends who aren't afraid to say exactly what they think. Subscribe now to become part of our growing community of listeners who appreciate authentic, thought-provoking, and occasionally inappropriate discussions about the world we all navigate together.

Speaker 1:

See, now it's like I don't know yeah, now we're digging into some ancestral ancestry exactly.

Speaker 3:

Maybe he, maybe he was fine yeah, you never know or it's like you know what. No, we got the perfect one.

Speaker 1:

We're gonna stop right there let's go with that, all right yeah, yeah, I hope.

Speaker 3:

I hope you're watching this podcast, jack's wife.

Speaker 1:

Wow, you're really trying to suck up before Japan, aren't you?

Speaker 3:

I mean we're going to be around each other for a while. So, yeah, all the points, god damn it A little buttering up doesn't hurt. At all, not even a little bit and little bit, and if it did I'd still be doing it. Oh my god. Oh so crazy week last week. Just work wise. Other than that it was pretty quiet. I mean, I went to go see the movie on tuesday black bag. I didn't think I heard of that one.

Speaker 2:

Until you said it, I don't think I heard of it yeah, you saw the trailer.

Speaker 3:

I guarantee you just don't remember with Fastbender. It's showing up fine on my side okay, okay. Fastbender and Blanchett the spy one it was a quick watch, 90 minutes got in, got out, two hours with trailers.

Speaker 1:

basically, yes, it was a quick watch, 90 minutes.

Speaker 3:

Got in, got out Two hours with trailers, basically yes, and the commercial, not even the trailers anymore, the actual freaking basic commercial, maria Menounos.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we're going to have a conversation how Maria Menounos?

Speaker 3:

has not aged in like 25 years. Dude for real, literally. I remember her after episode one man.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and she looked exactly the same.

Speaker 2:

She's the original AI assistant.

Speaker 1:

No shit she. She actually never existed. There was never actually a beta. There was never actually a Maria Mudodos. It did. That's why they picked that name, cause that name just had never existed in the history of the world anywhere.

Speaker 3:

I would believe that because when I walk in I try to time it where I'm not there too early. When I walk in, it's like the last few minutes of her and it's like, man, this is the same girl from 1999. This is.

Speaker 1:

This is something right here we need you to come on the podcast and prove that you're real, for real.

Speaker 3:

She got a twin daughter and they just swapped them out. It's the substance.

Speaker 1:

It's literally the substance.

Speaker 3:

Mm-hmm Makes sense. Her and the movie feel they're like, hey, let's make a movie about Maria. So they did.

Speaker 2:

It can't be too obvious. So let's make it a white girl, yeah, of course Freaking.

Speaker 1:

See, now I can. It can't be too obvious.

Speaker 3:

So let's make it a white girl. Yeah, of course. Yeah, freaking See. Now I can't get on board because they race swapped. Uh-uh See, not a hypocrite, Both ways. Uh-uh, we ain't having that.

Speaker 1:

I thought, when you said you were going to go see the movie this week, lou, I thought you were talking about Snow White Weird Damn.

Speaker 2:

He's been too busy review bombing it on IMDb.

Speaker 3:

I knew that movie was going to bomb just because of Rachel. No other reason than Rachel. The movie could be fantastic, but Rachel is unlikable. But I didn't think it was going to go that bad. $43 million it was projected to hit 86, and it got 43. Didn't even crack 90 worldwide. That is sad Again. I knew it was going to have a little bit. You know a little bit. Not this. This was worse than basically every other live-action movie that's ever come out. Even Black Little Mermaid did better than this and that's saying something. But man, people really hate Rachel. It's like again I'm hearing the movie actually is pretty okay.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, my wife saw it, but nobody wants to watch her. She thought it was alright.

Speaker 3:

Nobody will support her. So it's like alright, Whatever, I'm not saying I won't watch it, I'm just not going to go to the theater to do it. I mean, as soon as it hits Disney+ I'll probably give it a shot. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'll watch the original first. I haven't seen that movie before, so I'll watch the original one eventually, and then I'll watch that one in I don't know six weeks when it hits Disney+, because that's going to get pulled from the theater pretty quick.

Speaker 2:

The worst part is… I thought it was one of Disney+.

Speaker 1:

I thought that for a while it was.

Speaker 3:

Day and date Right?

Speaker 1:

I don't know, that's just brutal. I think people are just getting tired of the live action remakes. Make something original. I don't know about that I would bet there was a pretentage of that, because they haven't had a good live action remake.

Speaker 2:

I think that it's been slammed so hard that people are like, oh, that movie sucks Hearing that it's been slammed so hard that people are like oh that movie sucks, yeah, without any kind of Hearing that it's actually decent. It could actually start turning a profit as people go see it and tell people it's really not that bad.

Speaker 3:

Oh, it ain't turning a profit but it'll get some views. That movie has to make $800 million to turn a profit and it's not going to make $800 million, no-transcript. $280 million minimum budget plus marketing. Oof, they're screwed.

Speaker 2:

Do the studios make money off of the popcorn buckets? Say that again Do the studios get percentage off of the popcorn buckets?

Speaker 3:

Oh yeah, oh, I would say more than the movie tickets, percentage-based, I would say yes, and even some of the merchandise. There was that $100, $150 doll that came out.

Speaker 2:

People hate the figure.

Speaker 3:

But they love the dress of the doll. I was watching that. I agree it looked pretty good. I'm like, oh, that's a good looking dress. Put it on the original Snow White, it'd be better. But honestly, if you're her and you're going to come off so unlikable, what do you expect to happen? I mean, think about it. Disney stopped all their red carpet treatment in Europe. They stopped it at the Hollywood Bowl or whatever the hell they do it at the place, the place that we were going to go to, I guess. Right, capitan, yeah, there we go. They stopped all that because of her. So that tells you all you need to know. Right there, she is that unlikable.

Speaker 2:

I mean. Same thing happened with Flash, though.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, exactly With.

Speaker 1:

Ezra, but I mean, but there's a huge difference between grooming people and being unlikable, Like, just you know, not having popular opinions or whatever Well sort of. If there's a crime, and like there's a potential crime, I don't think she's done anything that would that you could categorize her potentially being arrested for. She might have said some stuff that rubbed people the wrong way, but being a jerk or being an asshole is a huge difference between being accused of locking people in basements and shit. Let's just be clear about that. Same end result.

Speaker 3:

You know what, though? What's sad about that, though, Duke, is that I think his movie's going to make more than hers.

Speaker 2:

Probably. I mean maybe Only because Michael Keaton was in it. Yeah, Everyone wants to see that, to see Michael.

Speaker 1:

Keaton as Batman. But that goes back to my point, right, they did a terrible job of marketing the Snow White movie above and beyond all the headlines and everything, right, I don't think. I mean, mean, I saw a couple trailers. I don't think I've even, I don't even think I ever saw a trailer like the month before.

Speaker 2:

Um, oh they did going to the movies.

Speaker 1:

Well, I mean, we were going to the movies every week and I never saw the the snow white trailer I didn't think about that.

Speaker 3:

If you're, you're right to me.

Speaker 1:

If you're if you're the marketing department and you're trying to uh, you're trying to counter program against the negativity of whatever right, whether it's your star or your director or whatever. Like I'm showing you the movie saying look at, like hey, never mind what, don't ignore all this. Like, just pay attention to look how great the movie is, look how great the effects are, blah, blah, blah.

Speaker 2:

But it's not something you have to go. Look on youtube, it's. You're already, already in the theater, so we're going to force it on you, right? And then you're like, no, you know what, it doesn't look that bad.

Speaker 1:

Because, again, if you go and type in Snow White on YouTube you're going to get 100,000 negative reviews and people shooting on her and people shooting on the movie, whatever, before you actually get to the trailer. Right, you'll get a hundred thousand of these like which we probably should have done before. The podcast is just steal trailers and just post them on youtube, because that's that's something that happens a lot too. Um, but yeah the uh. So I think they did it, as opposed to flash, where flash they still were pushing michael keaton look at all cool stuff, like you know, have Supergirl, blah, blah, blah. So they did a good job of working around the negative perception of the movie with the marketing. At least, I feel like they did.

Speaker 3:

I mean they definitely had trailers out the last month beforehand, different trailers and everything trying to promote. The last one before the movie came out was trying to kind of a cross-reference original with the live action to promote it. Actually it was kind of decent. Anytime they didn't show Rachel, it was a decent trailer.

Speaker 1:

But I know, even for Wicked, it didn't matter what movie I saw the two months before you had a fucking Wicked trailer. I've gone to the movies eight times times, nine times in the last three months.

Speaker 3:

I've never seen a snow white trailer regardless of what type of movie that I've seen I'm trying to think about that and I think, I think I'm with you. I don't remember. I don't remember seeing the one either I mean, I've seen movies that are weird.

Speaker 1:

I haven't. I've seen movies that aren't coming out for another fucking year, which also drives me crazy. I'm really glad Thunderbolts is coming out, because I'm really fucking tired of Thunderbolts trailers. We've had Thunderbolts trailers for a year now.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, ballerina the next one, right, exactly another one that's been out for a year that last trailer great.

Speaker 1:

I saw another trailer. I'm like, oh good, you just gave away the whole fucking movie. Why?

Speaker 2:

would I want to go see this.

Speaker 1:

I wasn't going to see it until I saw that John Wick's in it, but that's the thing you just have to show John Wick walking off the train, slam, cut to the title and you're good. I don't need to see them interact and making out and making it like don't show me all that, I don't want to know that back silhouette with the long hair in the suit and a gun in his hand exactly you know, and her facing him or something like you know, like fire in the background, whatever cool, do that?

Speaker 1:

that's your fucking drop shot. You don't need to do anything else besides that. I don't care. It's not that I don't care about the story, I don't. I want to walk in being surprised. I don't want to walk in knowing everything that's going to happen. And again going back to your point, jack, when you're trapped in the theater, you don't have a choice, you can't, you don't have a choice of watching it or not. You know, and that's the shitty part, because I think when we saw would yeah, exactly, like, let me just la, la, la, la, la. Like you know, when we saw mickey 17, there were two or three trailers that I was like, okay, well, I know everything that's going to happen. Now, like, why? Why am I going to go see this on opening weekend? I don't need to like, I'll go see it on cheap tuesday, you know, like I don't know it's, it's the. The movie industry is very confusing to me and I'm really glad that I didn't get into it.

Speaker 3:

It's funny you say that because one of my subscriptions is what Culture and what Culture? Star Wars. They talk about movies and shows and stuff like that, yeah, yeah. And it's funny that you say that because I want to say in the last month, month and a half, they've done two top 10 videos because they had to find more of where the trailers ruined the movie and I was like that is a good point. They keep fucking it up. It's terrible.

Speaker 1:

I mean when you can have a full top 10 and not encapsulate all 10 movies. It'd be one thing if it was like here are 10 movies that have fucked up in the last two years, but no, it's like here's the most egregious 10 movies, like you know and then here's, and here's, 10 more a week later, that we couldn't fit in our first time. Yeah, exactly, here's all the honorable mentions.

Speaker 3:

That's a good point, man, that's just crazy.

Speaker 2:

Which is funny, you complain considering about Rogue One with all the shit that they filmed that didn't go into the movie.

Speaker 3:

False advertising. False advertising Suicide Squad.

Speaker 1:

You're all hyped when she's going up the tower. This is when the TIE Fighter shows up. Wait, where the fuck's the TIE Fighter? What?

Speaker 2:

Where's the rising sun with the TIE Fighter silhouettes? That looked amazing and it wasn't there.

Speaker 3:

No, well, we got a president involved. Now that he'll put his foot down and they're all prosecuted 20 years for false advertising, I'm okay with that. I'll support that. I mean, I support death sentences for leaving poop, not picking up after your dog's poop, so I'm okay with that you just call it poop.

Speaker 1:

Did you Leaving Putin? Is that what you said?

Speaker 3:

You said for leaving your dog's poop, leaving your dog's pooping, pooping, pooping a lot.

Speaker 1:

I'm just glad Jack heard Putin too, because that's just hilarious.

Speaker 3:

Thanks, Luke. Where are we going with?

Speaker 2:

Putin. And then you said dog, I'm like oh, I got you.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, pooping, pooping, close to pooping, they're both shit, so it doesn't matter.

Speaker 2:

I don't think anybody can argue that one.

Speaker 3:

Oh, that reminds me. I don't say I got into it, but there was a discussion in our Magic thread because AOC and Bernie were out here in Denver and Greeley is about an hour northeast from me, so they had their rally for, you know, stop the oligarchy and all this. I'm like are you people so stupid that you haven't realized that the US has been in an oligarchy for decades and you only care now because it's not your person in charge of this oligarchy? It's like you fucking hypocrites. It's the one thing I hate about politics.

Speaker 2:

That's the other side of that too. It's the one thing I hate about politics.

Speaker 3:

They've brought it out, that's the other side of that too. It was definitely the shadows, but it's been going on for decades.

Speaker 2:

We know there's only three companies that run everything.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, exactly, it's like why weren't you people out there on the campaign trail and all this other stuff making fun of when the dams were in office or the first time when Trump was in office or when Obama was in office, you when Trump was in office or when Obama was? I just keep going backwards for about 40, 50 years, if not longer, and you'll see that the U? S has been an oligarchy for a long time, like, but we don't want the billionaires doing all this and all. It's like okay, okay, again, how stupid are you. Did you look at the Forbes report? There were more billionaires backing Kamala Harris there were Donald Trump, but there were more billionaires backing Kamala Harris than there were Donald Trump. But it's the billionaires that are the problem. They backed the Democrats, the Republicans, this last election. But again, more stupidity.

Speaker 3:

Just do your fucking research and then go out on the campaign trail or whatever. Again, it's the hypocrisy. I don't care. If you want to go against the oligarchy. If that's your platform, go for it. Just don't pick now, because it's not your person. Pick it, go, start it. If not now, then when? I mean if this is the starting point, and as long as you keep doing it, I support you. If it's because it's a rep in the office, great fine. But if next time it's a Dem, because we're not done, we all know it's going to be an oligarchy still then go, then go out. Well, bernie won't be able to probably be dead by then, that old fucker I'm sure he's not not for real, but aoc, keep this energy.

Speaker 1:

He's actually he's actually sorry, lou, didn't mean to cut you off there, but no no, that was a good one.

Speaker 3:

That was a good one. I'm glad you did.

Speaker 1:

Bernie's actually been the same age for like 100 years, oh my.

Speaker 3:

God. No, I tell you. It's funny, in the same thread that I was having a discussion with these idiots about this. It was like Bernie got screwed over back in 2016. And I was like dude, we finally agree on something. Screwed over back in 2016. And I was like dude, we finally agree on something. If, if bernie didn't get screwed over by the democrats, I would have actually voted against trump instead of against hillary. Um, it's like this time around, you know? It's like okay, I guess I'm going against, against kamala douchebag or a shit taco yeah, he's right.

Speaker 3:

I haven't had a candidate I could vote for in a long time. I'm always against the other one. It's sad. It's like all these 340 million people in the US, and these are the two best idiots you can give us, isn't it?

Speaker 2:

time for Gen X to start taking over, yet they don't care, that's the problem.

Speaker 3:

That is our problem, isn't it we?

Speaker 2:

don't care. That is our problem, isn't it? We don't care.

Speaker 3:

No, there is that. We'll make fun of all of it, but at the end of the day we're like we'll just roll with whatever happens. It's true, yeah, because it's just the younger. Like every time I get into it with the left, it's usually a younger left person who doesn't understand what's really happening. It's like okay. So when this happened over here, you were fine with it and this this the guy in the thread actually said this I'm only mad about the oligarchy because it's not my person in control. I was like wow, that's that's what I said.

Speaker 3:

I said you know what, I can appreciate that that's how you feel and you were honest with it. Yeah, I ain't mad at I was. I was like I ain't mad at that, I mean cool. Same guy was all like I'm not for free speech.

Speaker 1:

Um, I was like, okay, that's a little extreme, but okay, long look, that's fine, you have your position and I have no problem with that, and there's plenty of places in the world that you can move that don't have free speech. That would be happy to take you in.

Speaker 3:

It's like you don't go follow rosie over to ireland, right, uh, but it's yeah, it's just interesting. But but, yeah, the gen xers, like we care but we don't care. Like I pay attention and I follow the stupidity of people left or right, I don't care which side, but at the end of the day it really don't affect me down the line. The whole, the direct there's not really a direct issue with me. So it's like okay, if that's what you want to do, you want to go and protest this. You, you want to go and protest this. You want to go and do that, have fun, you know, just don't hurt anybody and don't stop what I'm doing. Like I can't wait till they pass a law that says if you're blocking freeways you can get ran over.

Speaker 3:

That's the one I want. It's like do not interfere with anybody else. You want to be on the sidewalk? All this peaceful display, do all that, have fun, have fun. I think it's stupid out here for some of it, because we're a blue state, so I think it's a waste, like the whole AOC Bernie thing that was out here this weekend or Friday yeah, I think it was Friday. It was like okay, let me get this straight. You got this echo chamber and you're preaching to a state that's already blue. Take this shit to Mississippi and then we can talk.

Speaker 2:

Let's hope their crowds look better when they're on the internet.

Speaker 1:

I guess, but I think they have gone to some of those places as well.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think they're touring.

Speaker 3:

Yeah they're going all over. I hope so.

Speaker 1:

So I think they started on the West Coast, they started in California and they're working their way east.

Speaker 3:

That's a thing. Are they hitting any red states on the way? Everything I've heard has all been blue states. I'm like you're just preaching to the choir at that point.

Speaker 1:

I don't get it. They did come here.

Speaker 3:

Aw, I got to shoot my shot with.

Speaker 1:

AOC.

Speaker 2:

Come on, I liked it. Punisher LGS that was a great scene Right, and he broke that shit down too. They're warming up and obviously at the end of this episode they're both becoming who they really are. Kingpin is back. He's eating his fucking sausage and pasta while committing some shady shit and locking up Adam and Daredevil's up there. He's like fuck this, I'm gonna get my baton out and start loosening up the muscles. So they're becoming who they are. It makes me sad. It's only what an eight-episode season. And what was this? Episode three, four we're on four, so we're halfway through. So hopefully some shit goes down. Homeboy that's crying blood. Maybe that'll kick some ass, but no, I like it. I like Law and Order, though.

Speaker 1:

Me too. First question would be how does this compare to the Netflix show? Same, okay, not to me.

Speaker 3:

No, no, but they're getting there, I think I guess okay, okay I, I think it's what it is for me. I, I agree with you, I think, I thought I think it is written better, at least the uh, the dialogue, I guess.

Speaker 3:

Yes, for better the dialogue is written better yes but for me, I think I I I didn't realize this until the third episode. Actually I have to pull away from the Netflix series to enjoy this more anyway, because for me they're starting over. You're having to relearn the characters, even though they have their history. You had that first episode that pulled them away from who they were, both of them, kingpin and Daredevil. So we have to get back to that and they're building up to that. So this slow burn, this whole season one, that's building up to it again. But that's the thing it's again. I've already, for those who don't know this story, I didn't go back to watch it, only watch the recaps. I think this is great for them. For the rest of it, just like I kind of know all this, I understand what you're doing, but damn, it get there already. So, and they've already, uh, greenlit three seasons. So I think season two will be much better than this season because they are doing this build up, but I'm still enjoying it.

Speaker 2:

But I wouldn't compare it as I bring jessica jones back that's the talk.

Speaker 3:

That is the talk, and that is that's funny. You say that because part of the problem that I'm having with this is there. There's where's the b story, where's the c story, where's the d story?

Speaker 3:

that's parallel between kingpin and their devil yes, it had multiple between ben story uh, going on, obviously foggy, and karen and their story going on. Then you have the other characters with the Punisher and eventually they bring in the Bullseye. All these other things that are happening, it's true. The Triad, whatever that group was called, I can't remember what it was. There's no B, c, d story in this, it's just the parallels of Daredevil and Kingpin. It's like okay, we got nothing.

Speaker 2:

But it's not bad, because now it's not overcrowded.

Speaker 1:

I think it's more subtle B stories, like, I think, the therapy with Fisk and his wife, that's a B story. I would definitely consider that a B story.

Speaker 3:

Not to me, because who's that about?

Speaker 1:

The BB. It's about Fisk. It's about Fisk. That's my point.

Speaker 3:

I'm talking to GF2 stories, so you're talking about completely different people outside Okay. Yeah, okay.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but that's what I'm saying. Like I think it's a more subtle B story where you have Fisk doing his thing as mayor, while still and that's his A story so I would consider, like the therapy and stuff like that with his wife, the interactions that he's having outside of being the mayor or being the kingpin, as being B stories. So all the stuff with BB, all the stuff with his wife, I in my head when I'm breaking it down, because they're treated to me. They're treated like separate things, like his wife isn't hanging out in the house when he's doing, you know his wife isn't tagging along when they're out, you know, doing all of his stuff as mayor. She's been isolated almost to just being in the therapy sessions.

Speaker 1:

So in my head I'm like it's more subtle than just being a blatant like oh, now we're going to follow Matt Murdock's um the other lawyer that he works with. We're going to follow her for 10 minutes, or whatever. She almost seems like an auxiliary character at this point to me like she's basically just keeping. She's basically just keeping him working as a like again.

Speaker 3:

That's the problem, even even with vanessa and that story. That story all it's doing is progressing fisk, so it's still his story. Like if if they were going to do vanessa and showed her what she's doing on the side with the five families, whatever they're called, that's a B story to me. Then they all eventually culminate like they did in the Netflix series. That's not what's happening here, I don't know. Oh, you could talk about Gandolfini's kid. Yeah, whatever you can have him.

Speaker 3:

It's like again, still fifth story, because when all was said and done, he is learning what he learned in therapy and applied it to the fuck up that he, that the kid, did um with the bb report. And again even they're using these characters immediately to affect daredevil and kingpin and it it's like where is this? Like a B story to me would be BB off doing her own thing the way in the comics and everything that her uncle knew who Daredevil was. If BB somehow had a story and again they may get to that in season two, where that comes around, and then it finally all these spikes come together in the middle. It's like, oh shit, the will is formed or spokes, rather, okay, great, that's fantastic. But that's not what's happening? Everything is just those two characters.

Speaker 2:

It is less over world building, which Marvel's gotten away from, honestly, since Endgame. They are not doing as much. Let's plant this character so they can get their own spinoff. Even in their movies they're not doing that as much.

Speaker 1:

The second question I had was would you think worse, what would your opinion be of the story if they didn't have the opening? I think we kind of talked about this a tiny bit, but if they didn't have the opening 10 minutes, like was originally, you know, three years ago, we're watching Daredevil and we're four episodes in and he's never been Daredevil. Would that bother you guys? Or would that like, did that opening scene kind of say your daredevil need, if that makes sense?

Speaker 2:

because I've read a few things online back and forth on that, so, yes, wasn't daredevil at the beginning of the netflix series either, though okay, not as we know him right.

Speaker 3:

And even then, because, because we know where it's going, I'm not worried about it. Like we didn't get it, I don't. I don't think he got his suit until the last episode in the first season. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I think so.

Speaker 3:

And even though he still had the black and the bandana and all I get all that. But having seen him in the first episode and understanding the line that they're taking with him and that he's going to get there, okay, great, I'm fine with that.

Speaker 2:

So, to answer your question, yes, I'm fine with him four episodes in and not really being the guy that we know. Yeah, the guy that we know.

Speaker 3:

Especially since we can see where it's going, where he's likely going to be there. I don't know how big of a role Muse is going to play in this, but maybe that's the person he ends up fighting at the end.

Speaker 1:

But we'll see. I think he's going to be the season two guy. I don't think they're introducing him so subtly that I don't. I think, by this point, if he was going to be the big bad at the end of the season, that might be a cliffhanger, but I think they would have put him more forward. Yeah, I can see that.

Speaker 2:

If if you're only talking about his art and stuff, you know well, and we finally, got the, you know.

Speaker 1:

We finally got the last scene at the end where he's, you know, now we're knowing where his, his paint is coming from and stuff. But I feel like they're, they're, they're slow, they're. That's such a slow burn that they would really have to escalate things over the because, again, they have nobody's even talked about him like he is. You want to talk about b story? He's a b story because he is outside of, like the art being behind in the background of the scenes the characters are in. He is completely separate from everything else that's going on with matt. They have not talked about him. He has not been a.

Speaker 1:

I don't even think he's been in the news at all. Them watching the news and there hasn't been anything at the bottom of the cry on at the bottom type of thing I mean.

Speaker 3:

That's a good point. I could see you Season 2 bad guy or 3? I can't remember what you said. I could see him as a season 2 bad guy, I or three, I can't remember what you said.

Speaker 1:

Two, yeah, I can see him as the season two bad guy?

Speaker 3:

I think you're right. I think they're going to use this season which is what they're doing is to let Matt go through the stages of grief and everything and let him come back to what he is slash was with Daredevil. So there really isn't a main bad guy, I guess, when all's said and done, and then, like you said, have a cliffhanger at the end of the season and then season two will be views.

Speaker 3:

So season one bad guy, if you want to. Really, I don't know if I don't think this is a stretch, but season one bad guy is the police.

Speaker 1:

Yeah Well, it's going to be Fisk. Slash the police, right.

Speaker 3:

Well, yeah, but I don't think there's nothing direct going on with Fisk. There actually is direct going on with the police.

Speaker 1:

I'm saying Fisk slash the police, because Fisk is going to give the police the power to be more violent towards the vigilantes, or at least remove the restraints that they have now and make it more. That's why I'm saying Fisk slash the police, because Fisk'm saying Fisk slash the police because now Fisk being in power, he's going to enable them to be more. I'm going to say militaristic, that's not have more freedom when it comes to punishing vigilantes.

Speaker 2:

And then Punisher will kill them all.

Speaker 3:

I'm alright with that, Although looks like he retired too Shit.

Speaker 2:

He seems like he was doing something. He had all that shit in the back there. He did let his beard go, though.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I mean, it looks like he's doing investigative work, sure, but actually active.

Speaker 2:

No. I don't think he's going to kill them.

Speaker 1:

He's just constantly cleaning his guns. Yeah, 18 hours a day. Well, and you weren't even enough.

Speaker 3:

It would take him 18 hours.

Speaker 1:

You weren't even saying I mean I liked the fact that they didn't present him as living in like an know warehouse in the middle of nowhere and like a manager's office five layers down, like I like that. So because I mean again, the punisher is one of his tropes is that he moves into an apartment building, finds people who are unable to, you know, defend themselves or whatever, and then he becomes their protector.

Speaker 1:

So the fact that they've like I think that's really smart that they haven't, that they didn't do that with the scene with him and Matt was.

Speaker 3:

Or any Jason Statham movie.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he's not the working man or the beekeeper. Yet no, he's not even Hobbes or Shaw Shaw, because Hobbs is the Rock. Great, now the final boss is going to come after me. That was a joke for Jack. One of these days, lou, you're going to be sick and Jack and I are just going to spend an hour and a half talking about wrestling, and it's going to be fucking amazing.

Speaker 3:

Is some wrestler's name? The Final Boss.

Speaker 2:

The Rock. Yeah, that's what the Rock is calling himself now the final boss really yeah, wait now.

Speaker 1:

Because he owns part of WWE. Now, yeah, he's on the board of directors.

Speaker 2:

So now he's the boss, the final, the final boss.

Speaker 3:

Boss, I'll tell you what I didn't get with Jack's meme with OJ.

Speaker 1:

Right.

Speaker 3:

And Britney Spears. Do you know the song?

Speaker 2:

My loneliness is killing me, so Britney Spears my loneliness. Oj was my loneliness.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, but OJ was innocent. Everybody knows he didn't do it.

Speaker 2:

He was found innocent in the court of law. You're right, Exactly.

Speaker 1:

But then in civil court he was convicted, so really we're 50-50 on OJ.

Speaker 3:

Not 50-50. Civil court is not criminal court, not the same thing. All civil court is is pay me, that's all civil court is.

Speaker 2:

All they have to do is privilege. He had negligence in causing it.

Speaker 3:

That's still questionable. That's still questionable. Man he and causing it.

Speaker 2:

That's still questionable. That's still questionable man. He didn't protect her enough, so he is guilty.

Speaker 3:

I am shocked that the black person thinks OJ is innocent because he is and was found innocent and the white people thought he.

Speaker 2:

Wait, here's the thing.

Speaker 3:

Here's the thing. Oh wait, you said that movie wasn't about that.

Speaker 1:

You know what, if OJ is found innocent and then he goes back to being OJ afterwards, cool, but OJ turned into like it was almost like. That was like the mask slipped off after that and then he just turned into a giant piece of shit for the rest of his life. That's the thing.

Speaker 3:

No, he didn't. Somebody tried to steal his stuff.

Speaker 1:

Man. All he did was go back and try to get it back. When somebody stole your stuff, don't you want it back? I'm not Okay. Lou and Jack, make sure you have guns so when we go to this guy's place we can have a conversation.

Speaker 3:

I carry most of the time anyway. So we're good, I got you, we're not talking about your dick, Lou?

Speaker 1:

God damn it. Why does it always have to come back to your penis every?

Speaker 3:

single time that's a cannon.

Speaker 1:

That ain't a gun.

Speaker 3:

That's a cannon Get it right.

Speaker 1:

Black Glock, not your black cock. File the serial number off that.

Speaker 3:

I mean just For the record, I did get the Glock 34, not the 17. The 34 is a long barrel.

Speaker 1:

Lou, he needs your cannon. Hang on. Lou's sitting here like loading a fucking bowling ball into his pants with like the he's like a Jack Nicholson Joker at the end of the Batman.

Speaker 3:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, playing, I can't remember yeah that's a batling yeah, okay yeah oh my god. Anyway, point is oj was found not guilty.

Speaker 2:

That's what we know he was, I agree, legally he did not do anything yeah, that's all that matters is legally for that one.

Speaker 3:

It's, not, it's not the other thing. Yeah, it's not. It's what is it. It's not what you know, it's what you can prove. Um, yeah, so so.

Speaker 1:

I finally got around to finishing the end of Harley Quinn.

Speaker 3:

Oh, wait what I drug my feet on the last.

Speaker 1:

I drug my feet on the last four or five episodes, so I powered through those. I think that's it, dude. I don't think they're going to have another season. You think so. I think they wrapped everything up, dude. What else is left for them to talk about?

Speaker 1:

I mean, everybody went on their way, you know, like I don't know the fact that the last two episodes they basically had everybody who'd ever been in the show that was still alive as part of the show. Like what the fuck was joker doing there? Like joker was there conveniently and then all of a sudden he was there for three episodes, right, like you know, all the everybody that was ever on the show that was still alive was in those episodes and I think that that was them. The only person we didn't see was Kite man. He has his own show.

Speaker 1:

I think, basically everybody else who's had a substantial role in the television show was in those three episodes to one degree or another it was true.

Speaker 3:

So man reminds me of rex and invincible kite man. A little bit of a kite man, little bit did that whole, little bit of a frat boy tool. Yeah, that's.

Speaker 3:

That's a kind of only, only, only because invincible is in my head lately, um, because I'm still on, like episode five of harley of season one yep, and that's the timing issue, because we're watching it together and we only have like two nights to watch and we're watching landman, so or we'll go to a movie, so it's like okay, you don't have a lot of opportunity to watch you can have less sex, lou, yeah, yeah what the hell's wrong with you?

Speaker 1:

lou. Put the cannon away. Strap the cannon down every once in a while. Okay, I'm going to pretend.

Speaker 3:

I didn't hear that shit To me. You could have one.

Speaker 1:

I'm sure you can.

Speaker 3:

I'm sure that exists in the world.

Speaker 2:

It depends if you put a ring on it. Yeah, hmm, huh.

Speaker 3:

My throat got dry all of a sudden.

Speaker 1:

Jack, he already knows that. He already knows that.

Speaker 3:

Been there, done that.

Speaker 1:

Got the t-shirt.

Speaker 3:

I ain't trying to get less, I'm trying to bring a friend. Uh-uh Shit, I'm good Only if she wants to watch Harley Quinn afterwards too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

I mean, there is that If you do a doggy, style, you can both watch Harley Quinn. That's the thing, not the way my living room is set up. I don't have a TV in my bedroom. You gotta fucking rearrange the living room then TV in the bedroom. All you do is watch TV in the bedroom. I ain't trying to watch TV in the bedroom.

Speaker 1:

Alright Jack for Christmas. We're both buying Lou a TV for his bedroom.

Speaker 3:

I'll put that bitch in the bathroom.

Speaker 2:

It can't be better than his living room TV. It has to be just slightly less than that.

Speaker 1:

We'll make sure the film is still on it for you, buddy.

Speaker 3:

That's how it lasts long. Keep that film on it. You wait a few years. Rip that bad boy off. Brand new TV Boom.

Speaker 1:

That's my ab workout, but I also felt, I mean I I also felt like with season four and lou, I mean I'm not, there's no spoilers, but I also I also felt like I'm gonna forget it by the time I get to it. Yeah season four was, I don't want to say slow, but I felt like we were kind of going over the same thing again, like I feel like I'd seen it before last season, yeah, yeah, so I mean, we were kind of going over the same thing again, like I feel like I'd seen it before, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

So I mean, I was kind of like, oh okay, she does a bunch of dumb shit and it all blows up in her face and everybody's mad at her, but they're not really mad at her. And then she apologizes a bunch and then does a couple of kind of smart things, and then everybody right so yeah, so like she doesn't really learn anything.

Speaker 1:

There's no growth, it's no, it's weird, but I mean I guess, because they have to, kind of, I mean they don't have to because it's not tied to really any other show. It's not like it's, it's so literally 100 of something.

Speaker 3:

So the fact different universe in the dc universe that's coming out, oh yeah but yeah.

Speaker 1:

So I mean I was. I think that's part of why I kind I was like, okay, I was watching other stuff, because I'm like, oh, okay, I've seen this before. Right, it not gets irritating. But you just kind of like, okay, you're sorry, you fucked up. Okay, I get it.

Speaker 2:

Like you know, ivy's going to forgive you my favorite trivia about that show is they wouldn't show Batman going down on Catwoman. Wait, what they were supposed to have a scene. I think it was season two. Batman was supposed to be going down on Catwoman and DC was like, nah, Batman doesn't go down.

Speaker 1:

That was what the note said, right? I think the director said that.

Speaker 3:

That's why Batman is single. More reasons that I'm not cut up on Harley Quinn.

Speaker 1:

Lou was like wait, batman goes down on Catwoman. A cancelled leave chat.

Speaker 3:

I'm typing in what episode does?

Speaker 1:

MrSkincom. So we're all cut out. Everyone's watched Landman then.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, completely done.

Speaker 1:

I mean, you know my thoughts because I was preaching from the mountaintops months ago, but feedback.

Speaker 3:

Loved it. I thought the dialogue was fantastic. The mom and daughter were way over the top with the other land the wolf plan, wolf map plan or whatever that they're going after now. That also his son is going after now, so everybody wins in that scenario. As soon as that happened, I was like that's season two. I think it was episode four. And I was all like, well, at least we know what season two is going to be about. And then the series played off and we got to the opposite.

Speaker 3:

Obviously, the end was like, yeah, call that one. Um. Overall though it, I enjoyed it. I I enjoyed how they're, how it's all played out. I enjoyed how they're educating people on the oil industry somewhat obviously as hyperbole, but still a lot of that is true of what's happening and whatnot. Just look it up yourself, because I did. I was like is that true? You go look up some stuff. It's like, oh, wow, they are backing clean energy so they could make more money in the future. It's like man, these are some shady-ass people, great companies running the world, bro. But overall, everything Not surprised how the ending was with um, uh, with with tommy and all that. I was like, okay, figured he'd get saved. The question is, is it going to be the military or going to be his boss? The moment, the moment, dude said on in spanish on this side of the river, I'm the boss. I was like uh oh, that's not good for him.

Speaker 2:

That's when I changed my mind for military.

Speaker 3:

I was like well, your boss is about to come in and say hi, and did he ever?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he did, and of course it was Andy Garcia.

Speaker 2:

So you know I mean as far as like, if you're going to get like a pimp, like Mexican drug lord, yeah. If you want a scary Mexican dude that's not danny trejo you gotta go into your soul.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, but I also never pictured danny trejo as being like the leader right he's the guy he's the muscle. He's the guy that stands next to the guy who's the leader yep, yeah, every time yeah, every time so andy garcia's scary mexican. To me that's a huge.

Speaker 3:

To me that's a huge get, because if they have like I like that andy garcia Garcia can play a Mexican cartel and a freaking mafia mob leader. Good job, Andy Garcia.

Speaker 1:

And a casino owner.

Speaker 2:

He's just brown enough. Ocean Eleven.

Speaker 3:

Right, he's got them all covered.

Speaker 2:

He's just brown enough.

Speaker 3:

That's funny.

Speaker 1:

But he's like Andy Garcia, isn't he like Cuban or something? I don't think he's Mexican. Yeah, I want to say Cuban.

Speaker 3:

I think he. I thought so too. Yeah, I thought I thought he was Cuban as well. But I will tell you after the first, probably the first episode dude, I was telling people to watch it like co-workers uh, my niece, I was like just just the first 10 minutes of dialogue and then you get into it with the daughter?

Speaker 2:

yeah, no, I was in soon as yeah, me too soon as that. That first 10 minutes, I'm like okay, I was in.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, me too. As soon as that first 10 minutes, I'm like, okay, I'm in. And then again watching the dialogue with the family, the way all the dialogue played out, it's like I could see how that could be Again. I don't know if that's true and what all the industry is and whatever, but I could see him having conversations like that, even with the bulldog lawyer, girl Cammy, I think, or something.

Speaker 1:

I can't remember her name. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Cutie. But all of them, they all have their freaking roles. And even if she wants to be a bleeding heart liberal with the whole, I'm not for this. I'm like, just look, this is how it's going to be. You know, that's all there is to it. Do your job. Blah, blah, blah. You can still.

Speaker 1:

But now she's in, now she's part of the business. So I mean like and again what we already established, this during uh daredevil, uh lawyer's gonna lawyer man, like even if it goes against your morals or your uh, whatever, like I'm gonna win at the end of the day, that you're supposed to get that contract done, you're supposed to get that deal closed, whatever, like you know, yep, so yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, hopefully we don't have to wait too long for season two. But yeah, hopefully I don't know I haven't heard anything about it.

Speaker 3:

And again with that one, we have multiple side stories, again written for television. We have side stories. We have the mother and daughter doing their thing, and then the daughter their thing, and then the daughter, the mom and daughter doing their thing with with the old folks home, and you've got the um, the daughter and boyfriend. Then you've got uh, that freaking again, the chick lawyer and you've got the boss doing his thing, get the son and and the widow doing there.

Speaker 2:

it's like okay, lou likes his tv adhd, yeah, yeah for sure everything else in life it has to be fucking fucking order twos and fours.

Speaker 1:

But if you, you better make your fucking my tv chaos, if my tv isn't chaos if I don't have to spend 45 minutes talking about the show afterwards. Because of all the shit that happened, I don't want to watch it no, I was like what do you think of this show?

Speaker 3:

It was too straightforward. I didn't like it.

Speaker 2:

They went from A to B by the way, every time they were in the kitchen.

Speaker 1:

It was 1147 and that shit drove me crazy.

Speaker 3:

Right, it's like can they not change the clock? It's like come on Morning noon and night.

Speaker 1:

I mean it's gonna be right twice a day, I get it, but damn. I think we still should have hung out more with the neighbor's daughter. But that's me, you know. I don't think we got enough time with her. Hopefully season two that relationship develops further quarterback's gonna develop that relationship oh yeah with the daughter and the neighbor.

Speaker 3:

Oh my God, that was wild. And dude, the whole strip club scene. I was dying. That was hilarious. Even the boy out there. I'm all like, wait a minute, this ain't legal, he's 17. Oh my God. And then when he pulled off the draw or his pants and it really was the freaking jock that he had on, I was like, oh my God. But and then, and then when he pulled off the draw or his pants and it was really was the the fricking jock that he had on. It was like, oh my God, I thought they were going to kid with that. And sure enough he actually had that thing out there. That that was pretty fun.

Speaker 1:

The only thing that makes my heart hurt with that is, uh, that the lady who's in who's is Mama. Saracen from Friday Night Lights, so it hurts my heart a little bit because. Was that Wait the black?

Speaker 3:

lady.

Speaker 1:

The employee, no, the old lady that wanted the quarterback.

Speaker 3:

The dick in her face. Yeah, the one who wanted the dick in her face.

Speaker 1:

That's Mama Saracen, so it hurts my heart to see her because she was such a good person in Friday Night Lights and that's what I know her from. So see her now being like I want to take my face and I'm like no, mama Sarah said no what is that?

Speaker 3:

What was it? Leave it the airplane. But it was the bees Mom who's speaking jive, oh man.

Speaker 1:

Good old. Barbara.

Speaker 3:

Billingsley. But yeah, definitely a great show and, like I said, everybody that I've spoken to, I've recommended it to all. Good call, there Are you both watching Invincible?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I'm all done. I need to get caught up.

Speaker 1:

Why is it? When Lou says I'm not caught up on his show, you just nod your head affirmatively and I say I'm behind and I get the fucking negative nod. What the fuck, sir. I'm behind and I get the fucking negative nod.

Speaker 2:

What the fuck, sir, because you didn't watch Daredevil on Netflix at all.

Speaker 3:

That is true. That's a whole different card. I should like eight years ago.

Speaker 1:

I'm feeling judge right now is all I'm saying yes.

Speaker 2:

Yes, all right.

Speaker 1:

I knew.

Speaker 2:

Lou wasn't watching Invincible when I was watching it on Graves in my car and he would be up and he's like, no, I'm not watching, I'm like okay, fine.

Speaker 3:

But then I got into it and it was really good. Um, uh, like, even now it's like again timing. I won't get back to it until probably Wednesday. Uh, but I only have a few episodes ago. So by you know, hopefully Wednesday, thursday, I'll have it done. So that's cool. I almost certain I don't have any meetings this week, so that helps. Matter of fact, I think I have means.

Speaker 2:

Did you watch the Adam Eve miniseries?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I watched that after the first season. Okay, I watched the first season, then I watched to it. I was like, first of all, I don't want to wait every week, so then, once it was over, I was like, okay, I can watch this. And then I ended up watching everything else but that.

Speaker 1:

I did watch a short limited series. It was on Apple+, it was called Hijack. It had Idris Elba. I heard that was good. It was good. I enjoyed it a lot. Yeah, it was seven episodes. It was tight. Boom. I mean it's supposed to be in real time, so it's supposed to be a seven and a half hour flight or seven hour flight. So it was seven episodes. It moved really quick.

Speaker 3:

That's cool, I like those.

Speaker 1:

So just as I went into my recommended for you or have you started watching this in my Plex? And that was one of those and I was like, oh, seven episodes, I can bang that out in one day. So that was what I did yesterday was I just binge watched the shit out of it. There was a couple of times where I was like maybe I should watch something else. I was like, yeah, let's go back to this. I've definitely been there?

Speaker 3:

Definitely been there. Okay, I'm going to add that to that. And Ted Lasso, I need to add to my list.

Speaker 1:

Before season four comes out.

Speaker 3:

I guess I don't know. I've never seen season one, so no hurry, but everybody's telling me to watch it, so it's there. It's like the whole Japan list. Am I going to watch freaking Ted Lasso? Am I going to watch Penguin? Am I going to watch freaking Ted Lasso? Am I going to watch Penguin? Am I going to continue watching Yellow Jackets, or am I going to have it done by the time I get to the point? I don't know, but there's so many choices it's like, okay, let me just put a bunch of shit on there, you'll have a lot of time on the plane.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, there and back.

Speaker 1:

I was like motherfucking nine hours, oh my god, oh nine.

Speaker 3:

Well, that was more mine.

Speaker 3:

Mine's broken up into six and then nine, so oh, that's right, mine's like five and a half yeah, it's like five hours and 45 minutes from here to honolulu and then it's like nine hours from honolulu see, now you got me reaching, because I all my, all my printouts are on top of my, on top of my printer and I was like, what is our layover? Oh, we only have a two-hour layover from San Francisco before we leave, I guess, with boarding time about an hour and 15. It's actually pretty quick.

Speaker 1:

It's not enough time to go to the bathroom and refill your water. Usually you'll have meals, I mean, if the flight's? Oh yeah, because you guys only have a two-hour flight from Vegas to San Francisco Hour 43.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

But then your second flight's like 10 hours right.

Speaker 3:

Second flight. So let's see what this says. Let's see 11.30 am to 2.45 pm the next day, that would be 24, 25, 26, 27 hours minus the 15-hour time difference, so 12 hours.

Speaker 2:

I'm just glad our flight home's only negative 30 minutes.

Speaker 3:

We leave at 6.30, we land at 6.

Speaker 2:

It's amazing.

Speaker 3:

Leave at 6.25 on Saturday. Land at 6.06 on Saturday. That's great.

Speaker 1:

Same here when I come back on Tuesday. I think I take off at 8 and I land at 8.30 on Tuesday. Dude, no wonder your head is so fucked, dude, You're like wait a second.

Speaker 1:

It's almost like you have to just turn the clock off your phone or whatever, and you just can't even pay attention to the time and just like, okay, don't tell me what's going on. Well, and the thing is, when you're flying over the ocean, it's like if I'm flying from here to Vegas, for example, occasionally you get the pilot that'll be like oh, look, on the left side, it's this and here's the Grand Canyon. When you're flying over the ocean, it's like, oh, here's water, here's water. On your left side, there's water Wave to them.

Speaker 3:

This will be the first time we'll actually have to pay attention when they say in the event of a water landing. Yeah, I was like wait, this will actually matter. Will they tell me that shit when I'm going Denver to Vegas, I'm like, okay, whatever it's like sir are you paying attention? No, I'm not paying attention. You're talking about water over Vegas to Denver, denver to Vegas. No, I'm not paying attention. Thank you, ma'am. I'll pay attention. When you talk about that thing zopping from the ceiling, I'm going to put my mask on first.

Speaker 3:

I'll pay attention, then mask on. First I'll pay attention, then Fuck them kids Right. All them resources they're taking up Getting free seats at the cons. We don't want that. Pay for a seat, damn it.

Speaker 1:

Speaking of that, are we putting ourselves in?

Speaker 3:

I'm glad you brought it up.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's Tuesday.

Speaker 3:

Tuesday at 4 o'clock your time.

Speaker 1:

We could do this offline, but my tickets is weird. I think we need to have a conversation about the tickets because I don't share my screen and all that kind of stuff.

Speaker 3:

Okay, we'll do it when we get offline.

Speaker 1:

The ticket stuff is weird. I don't like it at all. So thanks, Reed, for still fisting the pooch on all of it.

Speaker 3:

It's funny you say that because, like, when there are people on the Facebook group talking about the problems, they're like Reed is the problem. Yeah, get rid of Reed.

Speaker 1:

Well, they done. Fucked up tickets to begin with. They fucked up the art show. The hotels have been.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I didn't pay attention to the hotels, but the hotels my understanding was the hotels were kind of a mess.

Speaker 1:

And you fucked up the queuing. You put all your fucking store slots out before you put the panels out, which is stupid.

Speaker 2:

That was stupid, that was dumb.

Speaker 1:

You couldn't even have put those out a week before, because Cause it was literally like we, we did the QE.

Speaker 3:

It was the next day. Yeah, it was the next day. Yeah, like that's so dumb. All they had to do was flip those two. Yeah, all they had to do was flip those two. That's it yeah, that was dumb as hell.

Speaker 3:

Whatever. But I hear people like, like I, you know the way I gave you guys your tickets. I don't know what it's called Transfer. I transferred your tickets. I'm hearing stuff like, just because you transferred them, that just means they can use their own emails to try for Lightning Lane type stuff, but the main person still has to pick up all the tickets. I'm like that can't be right. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I was like that can't be right. Okay, well, again we'll talk about it afterwards, but that's what I'm seeing. Yeah, so a little stuff like that. Well, and the fact that I can't transfer those tickets to anybody else. It's a transfer once it looks like. Oh.

Speaker 3:

I didn't know about that, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Like I said, we'll talk about it afterwards and then we can complain about it next week. But yeah, so far it seems. I mean not to say this is any worse than Comic-Con, but it's definitely not better.

Speaker 3:

Shit dude. I just realized your ass has gone two and a half weeks.

Speaker 1:

Yeah right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Tuesday Two weeks.

Speaker 1:

Tuesday I have a.

Speaker 2:

Duke-less podcast.

Right now, tuesday is the eighth, monday is the seventh seventh, where am I at on the seventh, so it'll be the 14th. It'll be the week after.

Speaker 1:

It'll be the 14th, right, because you're still here 14th I might be in Nara or Kyoto, so yeah, but I'll be at Nara feeding deer potentially, and it'll still be the 13th here.

Speaker 2:

It'll be amazing, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

Lou All those raven hats.

Speaker 1:

All right, lou, I'll share a picture afterwards. He used to do remotes and he had a backpack with a giant satellite dish. It kept going in and out while he was like because it was so heavy he would be rocking back and forth.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, funny stuff Sounds funny. Who was the actor?

Speaker 1:

Al Franken, it was from the SNL days.

Speaker 3:

I don't know who Al Franken is. I thought that was the character's name.

Speaker 1:

No Former Senator Al Franken.

Speaker 3:

A former senator was doing snl yeah, that's cool.

Speaker 1:

He was a senator like a regular a regular cast member yeah, back in the day he was a writer.

Speaker 3:

He was a writer for a long time for them oh bro, that's the thing I was learning watching all these snl videos, the 50th anniversary, and watching documentaries. I didn't realize a lot of these dudes that are famous now, whatever, they were writers on SNL and not actually actors. I was like, oh crap, that's kind of cool, but that four-part or three-part documentary thing that was cool Conan Conan O'Brien, before he was on the.

Speaker 1:

I think it was before he was on the Simpsons. I think he was an SNL writer Because then he wrote for the Simpsons for a while too, I didn't know that either, damn, start keeping my own jokes.

Speaker 2:

Fuck those guys.

Speaker 3:

Exactly. They're making all their money off of me. I can make it myself.

Speaker 2:

Yep, let me take some acting and speaking classes.

Speaker 1:

Now I'm hosting the motherfucking Oscars, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Win Sure. I saw those ratings Like that's not a win.

Speaker 1:

He was good, though, like I saw his stuff.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I heard he was though Actually I did hear it. I heard the Oscars weren't all that great because people just don't care anymore, but he was pretty good. My favorite was was it the Globes with Ricky Gervais? That was fantastic, so beautiful, making fun of all those idiots. Like no, no, don't clap for that, y'all are a bunch of idiots. And it's like yes, finally somebody said it. Nobody cares about you singing, you know freaking Beatles songs out the dope. They might Somebody does.

Speaker 3:

Somebody thought it was going to be the other one who done it. Man, somebody got fired too.

Speaker 1:

Somebody lost their damn jobs.

Speaker 3:

They did. Somebody lost their job doing that shit. You know not every idea is going to be a win.

Speaker 2:

It's true, not everything can be vaguely inconsistent Exactly.

Speaker 3:

It cannot.

Speaker 1:

We had like 22 downloads in the day one last week.

Speaker 3:

Did we really?

Speaker 1:

Like blew the doors off of all the other episodes. Not sure what happened. We got picked up by some algorithm or something.

Speaker 3:

Did we show titties and I missed them, because that'll do it.

Speaker 3:

There you go there we go man, not a whole lot. I'm trying to get what else this last week Even pop culture, I think I said Saw Black Bag, thought it was great, well done, a fast paced enough that you're not wasting time, and I was like, okay, cool, I can appreciate this. It was, I think. I think that I can't remember what the other choice was. We were going to watch that or and I'm not too crazy to watch it, whatever it was, it ain't that great, we saw Mickey 17.

Speaker 3:

Yeah that was the other one. It was Mickey 17. I was like I want to watch it, but I'm not crazy to watch it.

Speaker 2:

So, since Duke said it was a slow burn, I'm like let me watch it not on Tightwad Tuesday, because then I'm not at work all day, right, so we went Monday.

Speaker 1:

I liked it. Yeah, okay, I had no problem with it, it was just the beginning of it for me was getting everything ramped up.

Speaker 2:

It's just world building. Like, why does he die all the time? Okay, yeah, how did he get into this position?

Speaker 3:

Well, nothing Worth a Dan came out this weekend, so maybe I'll watch it.

Speaker 2:

Tuesday and then we went to see see Nova Kane on Tuesday night.

Speaker 3:

That was the other one, that one I kind of want to watch, though on streaming. It's hard for me to justify giving them my dollars for that. It just doesn't look that good.

Speaker 2:

It was funny. It was not as gory as I was hoping. Yeah, that's fair, but the final kill was exactly what I wanted it to be. It worked out at the end.

Speaker 3:

Well, okay, well, let me ask you this If I go to Tightwad Tuesday, which am I watching?

Speaker 1:

The.

Speaker 3:

Monkey, nova Cane or Mickey 17? The Monkey Is the Monkey, still out.

Speaker 2:

I don't know it's not out here. It's the Barbenheimer thing. One's a good movie, one's entertaining. Mickey is a better movie, but Novocaine is very entertaining Okay.

Speaker 3:

I'll let somebody else pick. See what she says yeah, I think you can blame her. It's like you really picked this. Well, I didn't know.

Speaker 2:

No, but what's his face is really good in Mickey 17, batman, his dialect coach, but what's his face is really good in Mickey 17. Pattinson, batman, the Batman, twilight, batman, his dialect coach deserves whatever fucking Oscars they give out for that. His regular Mickey 17 accent was hilarious and you can't even tell it's him. And then when Mickey 18 shows up.

Speaker 1:

that guy was fucking hilarious too, Especially how they introduce him.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, him, yeah. See, now you have me leaning towards mickey 17, especially since that was next on my list yeah, that was next on my list anyway, so I I feel like nova kane's one of those.

Speaker 1:

You're cleaning the house on saturday and, like you see, it's on tnt and you just turn it on and have it.

Speaker 3:

But I'm saying but I'm saying it's one of those things Like.

Speaker 1:

I feel like, like you were saying, I'll wait for streaming for that Right, like it's one of those ones like, unless you had a big group of people that were all going to go see it, that all liked those types of movies, I feel like it's one of those that you would have to get like the audience kind of helps sell that movie Right, helps sell that movie right. Um no, I entertain myself, so I'd watch it by myself. But you know what I'm saying not, I'm, I'm not saying, I also have multiple personalities.

Speaker 1:

It's fair. It's fair you open a door and you never know which one you're gonna get can relate to this movie.

Speaker 2:

I am this movie yeah but they in that one they handled the uh, he doesn't feel pain really well like it wasn't unbelievable. It was very. I'm not a fucking doctor or anything, but I'm like, okay, that's plausible, I can, I can. He wasn't invincible, right like he was still bleeding, he was still getting hurt. He just didn't know that he had a fucking knife in his back for 20 minutes or a mace head yeah, but it was funny. It was funnier, it was as funny as I was hoping. It would be gory, so okay got it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was hoping for more gore, but it was more funny and it's a heist movie. There's a heist, involves bank robbery and shit. It was pretty good I.

Speaker 3:

I can see it being one of those. Oh, I didn't realize this was on Paramount now. I'll watch this. Oh, I didn't know it was on Peacock. I'll watch this. That's how I feel it's going to be for me, yeah.

Speaker 2:

There's nothing wrong with it. You will not regret it If you go see it on TechWad Tuesday or if you wait until it's streaming you're like shit, I should. I will be in the theater because it's sci-fi, mickey's sci-fi, yeah, that kind you kind of want to see, that kind of stuff on the big, yeah, in the big screen.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, it might be one this tuesday, one next tuesday, because I don't know what's coming out this friday, that's worth the damn, not a whole lot yeah, I was gonna say I'm not, I'm obviously the working man snow brown. I'd know I'd watch the working man on if i.2.

Speaker 2:

Death of a Unicorn. That one's like I'll see a trailer. I'm like oh, it looks good. Then I'll see another trailer. I'm like nah.

Speaker 3:

If I want to watch movies about swingers, then no, I'll move on. I don't want to see Unicorn die. Those are valuable.

Speaker 1:

It's hard to find a single chick.

Speaker 2:

Then you should go see this, because you will have your Wait a second.

Speaker 1:

When does the sex happen?

Speaker 3:

Right, when does she join the couple? I like unicorns? Well, if that's the case, then it might be Mickey 17 this week and then the Working man next week. Okay, what's the next Friday after that?

Speaker 1:

The Minecraft movie April 4th. I'm not watching that.

Speaker 2:

We're going to go see it. I'll let you know.

Speaker 3:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

I can already tell I don't need you to give me a feedback on that, I got it.

Speaker 3:

Maybe that's when I watch Novocaine. By that point it'll be on Paramount+.

Speaker 1:

The Amateur. But the Amateur is the following following oh, that's on my list.

Speaker 2:

That's the 11th, though that one does look good, and then Warfare as well which one's Warfare.

Speaker 1:

Warfare is the one that was written by an Iraq war veteran and the guy who did Civil War Warfare embeds audiences in it with a platoon of American Navy SEALs on a surveillance mission gone wrong in insurgent territory. But it's supposed to be one of those super hyper-accurate as far as how they act and what happened and stuff like that to them.

Speaker 3:

Wait, based on a true story, yeah, okay, yeah, I'd be down for that.

Speaker 1:

That comes out. That comes out the weekend, I think the same weekend as the amateur.

Speaker 3:

Oh, that's going to be a good weekend for me then. Oh, that's the weekend before we leave.

Speaker 2:

Well, before I leave.

Speaker 3:

You're already gone. Duke will already be there. You catch yourself a Japanese theater and see if you can leave with some titles To be honest with you, that's low-key, that's one thing.

Speaker 1:

I mean those types of things that we have here and we just take for granted as far as like how, the process, you know when you go into the theater, and all of that kind of stuff, like I'm interested to go see what a how do they live Well yeah, I'm interested to go up to the concessions and see what's available. What's the difference? Right?

Speaker 3:

Do you? Get sushi at a freaking movie theater in Japan. Right and then that would be kind of cool. I'm with you on that one. How is?

Speaker 1:

the seat. How is the experience? How is the? You know that type of thing.

Speaker 3:

The seats are going to be tiny because they're little people.

Speaker 2:

I'm going to be like no, they got similar wrestlers out there. They'd be suing, like that bitch that sued Lyft.

Speaker 3:

What.

Speaker 2:

But then are you getting me on that yeah so it's this rapper chick, right? She called a Lyft.

Speaker 3:

Oh, that chick, yeah, okay, I didn't know there was a Lyft thing about it, though. Okay, she called Lyft.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. So the bro rolls up in like a fucking Accord. Her fat ass can't fit.

Speaker 3:

Wow, wait, when you order I don't have Lyft or Uber, so when you order one of those, you don't say like I need a SUV or a flatbed or something.

Speaker 1:

I don't know. I need a flatbed, I need a lift, I need a lift triple XL.

Speaker 3:

I need a lift no no a forklift I meant forklift, jesus Christ.

Speaker 1:

Wow, good job, lou. You haven't made Jack slap the table in a long time.

Speaker 3:

Well, I haven't been there behind him, so what are you supposed?

Speaker 2:

to do.

Speaker 1:

Fair. I'm pretty annoyed that Sinners comes out on Easter weekend when we're going to be at Celebration.

Speaker 2:

My oldest is too. She wants to see that one.

Speaker 3:

Which one is that?

Speaker 2:

That's the one with the double Michael B Jordan.

Speaker 3:

The old, like 60s, yeah, like the vampire bootleg and shit yeah. Okay, okay, that looked pretty cool. Damn, I've been seeing trailers for that since last year too. Good lord, that movie get pushed.

Speaker 1:

I think so.

Speaker 3:

I could have swore. I saw trailers for that last spring and it was going to be a fall release or something.

Speaker 1:

What day is that? The 25th. We're all going to go see Revenge of the Sith together remotely.

Speaker 3:

Together remotely. Yeah, Because we're probably watching that Sunday we get back.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because it opens on the 25th and you guys get back that weekend, right?

Speaker 3:

We get back the 26th that night, so probably the 27th sometime we'll catch it. And we get back to 26 that night, so probably the 27th sometime we'll catch it. And then I fly back on Monday, so it'll be probably likely Sunday.

Speaker 1:

And then the Accountant 2?.

Speaker 3:

Oh shit, that's got a release date. I was looking for it, yeah, april 25th, so the same day. Yeah, I'll be watching that one. As a matter of fact, that might be Tightwad Tuesday when I return. Then I go back to work on Tuesday and that'll help wind me down after work my first day back to work.

Speaker 1:

And then, oh my God, the 25th anniversary the 2025 re-release of Happy Gilmore, that's.

Speaker 3:

I can't believe how. How old is that? What anniversary is that? 30?.

Speaker 1:

I'm not sure, let me look. It doesn't say 30 would be 95. 96. Oh, 30 would be 95. 96. Almost 30.

Speaker 3:

29 years Weird timing. Is part two coming out soon? Yeah it's coming out. Okay, that's why Put it out there now. That's actually smart.

Speaker 1:

What else do we have? The Surfer with Nicolas Cage? I don't think I've seen that yet Like a surf movie. I'll put together. We'll have to do trailers. We can do trailers next weekend.

Speaker 3:

Okay, that's true. Yeah, we haven't done trailers for a minute.

Speaker 1:

So I'll get those together for you guys for everything. Now we're going to be deep into summer so we can do an opening night Tightwad.

Speaker 3:

Tuesday Exactly, or we could do a opening night, tightwad Tuesday. Exactly or matinee. That would be the in-between. Matinee is the in-between. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and then streaming will be the worst.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we'll have the four layers. We've got Jack working on his art ability, his art skills here, so he can start popping it up on the screen Right.

Speaker 2:

What did Duke vote? I don't think I have anything like that We'll have to see.

Speaker 3:

There's no screen pop-ups.

Speaker 1:

I don't think so. I mean there is when you have a Mac, but you know Right.

Speaker 3:

Rude, or your cell phone, which is the dumbest thing ever. All I can do is this Unless they paid for it. If, like Mac, paid for that exclusivity, yeah, oh shit. If Mac paid for that exclusivity, yeah.

Speaker 2:

You guys got anything going on this week. Tomorrow I'm going to try to register for a tour at the test site, where they actually tested nuclear bombs. They only do it twice a year.

Speaker 1:

When's that one coming up? May I thought it was May and October, that's that one coming up May. I thought it was like.

Speaker 3:

May and October, something like that. This a youth thing or an older child thing.

Speaker 1:

Older child.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, uh-huh.

Speaker 1:

Could be Fallout related.

Speaker 3:

Maybe it might be, definitely.

Speaker 1:

Fallout related.

Speaker 3:

I saw a video of a guy who went out there and looked and it was pretty cool.

Speaker 1:

Like it's the stuff that's still out there even 75 years later.

Speaker 2:

The stuff that's still out there even 75 years later. That's cool. Oh, and the season of the Force starts this week Eight years later. So guess where I'm going to be Saturday Buying Death Star buckets, bitches, nice.

And then there's a PDX, there's a Portland bar in Tokyo, so it has a bunch of Portland beers and all kind of Portland-themed stuff, like the floor has the airport carpet and stuff. So I bought this to take and put up on the wall there as my little contribution. Oh sorry, so it's like a Portland, oregon travel tag.

Speaker 3:

Or he doesn't have a smile, either he needs to smile.

Speaker 2:

So the Missasaur mug has White Wampa Ale and Apple Cider, so it's an apple beer with cherry puree Like a pear cider type thing. I got to drink three of them. All right, fine, no big deal.

Speaker 1:

It might be something the wife likes.

Speaker 3:

Maybe, or it could be cheaper without the alcohol in it. I mean, if they did that, but they don't do that, though that's not an option, loose.

Speaker 2:

You have to drink all of them. That's like buying the the rancor teeth. I'm not drinking the beer. That's weird.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I mean who would do that actually?

Speaker 2:

they sell it outside of the ogres now, so like where the creature stall is where you go in and buy all the loscats and shit. The one to the left you can actually just buy the Rain Quartees, like individually, or do you have to buy the whole? Set. No, it's like the whole set yeah.

Speaker 1:

But, luz, you had to work hard to get yours, luz, so it's fine A lot of effort. I'll just have you put my Mythosaur mug in my bag in your bedroom.

Speaker 2:

I was talking about that, from Japan, I was like I don't have to worry about it If I end up coming down for season of the fourth, then I will just bring an empty bag, because I'll be there for two days. Yeah, we have reservations for May 4th also, right after we get back.

Speaker 3:

Makes sense. Wait, just the fourth.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

So far. Damn dude, I figured you'd have two days.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I'm still working.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, do what I'm still working. Yeah, but not until what? Tuesday, maybe I didn't. Maybe I didn't Because, since the girls went, they didn't have enough reservations left on their ticket what does that mean?

Speaker 3:

you have season tickets, you can go whenever you want.

Speaker 2:

I thought no, we can only have six reservations oh, at a time.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying. You can go whenever you want. You can only have six reservations, so now that they're cleared, you should be able to add another day yep, let's do that just for funsies, just so it's.

Speaker 2:

There have six reservations, so now that they're cleared, you should be able to add another day. Let's do that Just for funsies, just so it's there. April 4th is a Sunday.

Speaker 3:

Disneyland I don't know If I don't spend as much as I think I'm going to spend in Japan. $1,000 round trip probably can knock that out.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 3:

I got to fly there and back $300 minimum Ticket, $200, $500. Spending money it's $1,000,. Dude, I got to fly there and back $300 minimum Ticket, $200, $500. Spending money it's $1,000 minimum.

Speaker 1:

I'll have to tie Jack's leg off. Forgot I had this damn soundboard. This is how it works. It gets real quiet and all of a sudden you hear Talk about somebody with the tism.

Speaker 3:

Is the system easy? Late reaction Is the system pretty easy to use in editing, where you could put those sounds in after the fact, or no, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I think I probably could that way he can edit all the cursing. You guys aren't.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, because I figure he's editing Instead of the cursing. He can just like horn honk or something.

Speaker 1:

I don't think we should do that. You know, for as rough as my language is, I feel like we do a pretty good job In the podcast of not cursing.

Speaker 3:

But we're not a.

Speaker 1:

Tarantino movie by far.

Speaker 3:

No, no, no no.

Speaker 1:

Because if we were a Tarantino movie it would be like here's my feet.

Speaker 1:

sign on my garage. It's not there, Jules.

Speaker 3:

Do you know why you don't see a sign? Man, I might have to watch that movie. I haven't seen that movie in a while.

Speaker 1:

Actually, it's probably been five years since I've seen that movie, well, so my internet is capped at like two terabytes every month because cable service, cable, the cable industry is a giant ripoff um wow, and I don't have access to uh fiber or else I would switch um. But I'm gonna be gone for two weeks, so I'm like right now I'm like front loading everything, going through all of my old movies that are like SD or low quality and like upgrading them all to like better quality versions.

Speaker 3:

So I'm like oh good, I have like two terabytes.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to like be gone for half the month, so I'm going to just slam calendar month, or do you have like a 13th or 12th? Okay, so I'm like at eight, I think. I don't even think it's two terabytes, it's 12, you know, it's a terabyte, basically so 1200, 1.2 so early april you get a bunch of them handled, yeah.

Speaker 1:

So right now I'm like finish it off in april I'm at 875 gigs so I'm like, okay, I could do do a bunch of two gig movies right now, because we only have eight days left in the month. Then next month I'll do a bunch more.
