Vaguely Inconsistent
Sports Rants, Movie Hype, And Trailers Galore
Send us a text message! Tell us what you think!
A big NFL weekend, a bigger reality check: we dig into why so many teams feel stuck in the middle, why Pittsburgh can’t fake contender energy, and why the Vikings might actually have something with JJ McCarthy if they build to his strengths and stop forcing hero balls. From the Giants’ front office decisions to the QB carousel math no one wants to do, we map the season’s tiebreaker chaos and admit what parity really feels like when you’re watching every snap and chasing fantasy points.
Then we switch gears and go deep on what’s actually worth your time at the movies. Our short list is surprisingly sharp. Mercy looks like the one to circle: an AI judge, a 90‑minute clock, Chris Pratt cornered, and Rebecca Ferguson in full command. Send Help puts Rachel McAdams on a desert island with dark humor and teeth. A new Knives Out promises clever fun. Eternity asks a clean, unsettling question about love after death. The Michael biopic earns the “see it in a theater for the sound” seal, while The Bride haunts in all the right ways. We round it out with The Rip reuniting Affleck and Damon for a gritty, shadow‑drenched heist‑police tangle.
We also chew on found‑footage chills in Man Finds Tape, the Predators doc challenging the legacy of to‑catch‑a‑predator TV, and Bel‑Air’s serious take becoming its own thing. Fallout Season Two gets a quick hype check for fans of faithful worldbuilding. And because weekends should be fun, we end with our Disney game plan: Soarin’ seat tactics, Oga’s Cantina walk‑ups, droids vs lightsabers, and how to optimize a day when the lines don’t cooperate.
If you love sharp sports talk, honest fantasy therapy, and a curated watchlist that respects your time, this one’s got your week covered. Subscribe, share with a friend, and tell us which trailer you’re betting on to actually deliver.

But I mean, like, if it's a sequel to Godzilla minus one, obviously it's Godzilla Zero. Just exciting that.
SPEAKER_02:If you add one to minus one, you get zero. That's just basic math.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. And the Japanese love some math. I mean, got it. Stereotypical.
SPEAKER_00:Even though Lou, you're right, if he would have shown up and just been like, ah, Vietnamese, even you guys all looked the thought I looked the same. Bam! Gotcha. Would that have been more exciting of a movie to you, Lou?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, mix it up, Godzilla. You guys are all racist. Gotcha. Big ass lizard coming out of the water. Oh, there we go. I'm coming out the black sea.
SPEAKER_00:I'm salty this time, motherfucker.
SPEAKER_02:Let Godzilla come out the Indian Ocean. It's like, we'll call it Godzilla customer support.
SPEAKER_01:Hello, my name is James. I am here to destroy your city.
SPEAKER_00:I'm here to do some urban redevelopment.
SPEAKER_02:Thank you for calling. So I understand that you're having a problem with giant lizard. I'm sorry you're having a problem with giant lizard. I'm here to help you with that.
SPEAKER_00:Have you tried to try your full name? Yeah. Have you tried drop not dropping atomic bombs on him?
SPEAKER_02:And with that, hello everybody. Welcome back.
SPEAKER_00:Welcome back, Lou. Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Somehow you missed the whole podcast last week. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:So I mean, we act like apologies for that. To be fair, we acted like you were here the whole time. So we just kind of figured what you would say and then responded to that.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. So everybody it was uh it was so everybody could pretend to be Lou last week. Have you had your own adventure angry black man? This is your chance. Just respond.
SPEAKER_02:I want to bring Angry Black Man. Oh my gosh. So, some uh get some of the easy stuff out of the way first. Uh Steelers still suck. I keep trying to tell people that. People keep trying to tell me the Steelers are good. I'm like, not with Aaron Rodgers. His old ass is starting to look it. He's afraid to stay in the pocket, and that is gonna cost the Steelers games like it did today. I don't want to get hit, so I'm gonna bail. It's like, oh my god. Um yeah, so I ended up watching like all uh five minutes into the third quarter, and then I gave up on that game.
SPEAKER_01:They started playing good, almost wanted to double over time. That was crazy. Oh no, that was a great game.
SPEAKER_00:That was the Raiders game. Oopsie. You hit Jack over here playing some fucking LA fan shit, leaving in the middle of the third quarter, just like I mean, they were the LA Raiders at one point.
SPEAKER_02:It's right. It's true. Yeah. Uh Duke, you got you got beat a little badly today in fantasy football.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:I mean it's the way it's it's the way it's always been, the way it always will be, man. Like Duke's the Vikings of fantasy football. I'm uh and and of real football, and I don't understand how we're in last place in our division, but yet we're the only team that's undefeated in our division. Like that's that's the fucking that right there. That encapsulates being a Vikings fan is you're undefeated in division, yet you're at the bottom of the division.
SPEAKER_03:Like You got eight false starts at home. That is a damn shame. Yep.
SPEAKER_00:Yep. Somebody needs to get fired, dude. I'm really tired of these fucking this like this bullshit of just fucking eighth grade, dude. That was like the number one thing. If you're an offensive lineman, you do not fucking get a false start. Like and that place was as quiet as a two.
SPEAKER_02:But um, I I will I will have to admit though, uh, contrary to my what I actually thought before the season started, JJ McCarthy is not terrible. I thought he was just quarterback and couldn't do pro shit. He's uh I'm like watching some of his throws, some of his plays, and like, he's actually decent. And I mean, granted, I know this is his second year, but only his first year starting, and only what his fourth game ever starting. And that kid looks like he has started a lot of games. Kudos to him. Y'all, yeah, I thought y'all's future was done, and you're gonna waste Justin Jefferson and all that shit. I'm like, nah, you you need to get a real running back, but y'all gonna be alright.
SPEAKER_00:I there was a big there was a big push on Vikings Twitter to trade for the uh uh the Dolphins running back. Um A chain? Can't think of his name. Begins with an A. A chain. Whatever. Uh yeah, NHA. Yeah. A chain. A chain, yeah. But that did not happen.
SPEAKER_02:You're not hearing me, I said it three times.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, no, I did not. Oh, you must still be cutting out, Lou. Sorry.
SPEAKER_02:All right, here we go again. Number 28. How about that?
SPEAKER_00:Perfect, thank you. Go to the unlicensed NFL game.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, man. Um yeah, but but but seriously though, that's that's kind of cool because uh Vikings aren't doing crap this year, but next year, I think I think they they actually are have a foundation with JJ. So figure out what his strengths and weaknesses are this year, and then next year just focus on those strengths and and build your offense around that. So he needs to learn how to use the tight end, though. I mean, he is not good at that.
SPEAKER_00:No. No, I mean trying to force feed, I I get trying to force feed the ball to your best wide receiver, but you know, there are other people on the field who can catch the ball.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, like yeah, when when two of your interceptions are because you're forcing it uh to your top three wide receiver in the league. Uh no, man. Just take what what is the phrase? You can never go broke making a profit. Take the eight-yard toss to the tight end when it's there.
SPEAKER_00:Well, and again, that's where that's where like Jones really excels. He's a really good pass catcher, a running back. So um you know, even even on those swing passes and stuff like that, like yeah. You have other you have other avenues that you can take, you know. So but he'll learn.
SPEAKER_02:I mean Yeah, exactly. Like I said, fourth game. Fourth game. Yeah. It's all good. And then Giants almost screwed up in a one today against the Bears. It's like, come on, y'all, you're fucking with my draft pit. They're up 20 to 10 in the fourth. Well, and now they're And then Russell Wilson came in, so it was great.
SPEAKER_00:Well, and now they're and now they're probably gonna bench start for the rest of the year. He's he's got a concussion.
SPEAKER_02:Well, they fired Dable, so like right after the game? That's what I that's what I heard anyway.
SPEAKER_00:Really? Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. I I'm I'm looking for it now, but I haven't seen that. So if anything, uh Dable's really not the problem. He's a better offensive coordinator than he is the head coach, but he's not why the Giants should lose the game.
SPEAKER_00:No, it's the front office.
SPEAKER_02:Uh yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:And that was proven what two seasons ago during the hard knocks when they were like, what do we do with Saquon? I don't know. Let's lowball him. Oh, he went to he went in free agency to our to like uh inner uh, you know. Division right division rival. Like, oh cool. Yeah, cool, cool, cool.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I don't I don't see any news that Dable got fired, but old girl said she got something from ESPN ticker that he was.
SPEAKER_00:I was like, no sense. I think I saw that the Raiders like special teams got fired. Yeah, we fired one of our games, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, he got fired. Special teams go Tom something.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, he deserved to get fired a lot. Yeah, yeah. I think that gabled news was just false. I think it's more of a probably should he get fired, or he's on the hot season. I'm like, he's on hot seasons last year. Come on now. But you don't, you, you don't uh what the the Bill Parcell's comparison, and you don't you don't get the man some groceries. How is he supposed to cook? And then the groceries that he did have when they were doing okay, they go down. You lose your number one uh receiver, you lose your number one running back, and then in today's game you lose your quarterback. I mean, what the hell are you supposed to do? So uh and I I would like uh Jackson Dart to keep in this system, see how he does next year. And if Dable can't get this team to competitive next year, then fire him. But I would I would give him next season. I mean, I'm I'm not a fan of the fire him right away. Unless they really suck, you don't fire a coach. Like, who was it? Urban Meyer? Oh, he was horrible as a head coach.
SPEAKER_00:I think once you lose the once you've lost the locker room, right? Once you have players openly rebelling on the field, you know, that type of thing. Uh what was it last year or two years ago when like the team like call were calling plays that weren't even being called in. I think that might have been the end of uh assuming you're right.
SPEAKER_02:Cleveland or something? No, Cleveland, because the fancy's been there a while. But it I know what you're talking about. I I remember that story where the players are like, F it, man, we'll do our own thing.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And I mean Yeah, it is it is what it is, right? I mean, the other the other flip the other side of the Giants and what they're gonna do is Russell Wilson is really bad. Like, do you not make him the third string and let Jameis Winston be your backup? Like, if if Dart can't play next week because he hasn't recovered from the concussion, don't you just play Jameis Winston? Because you you can't go back to Russ. That's just after after the first couple games of the season and then today coming in. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm glad they lost for draft for draft position, but watching him play, that dude is done.
SPEAKER_00:Well, and Jameis is a 50-50 guy. You're either gonna get 10 touchdowns or you're gonna get 10 interceptions, you know? Yeah, Jameis has always been the extremes, man. Either he's throwing up five ducks that are gonna get intercepted, or he throws for five touchdowns and 350 yards, and you you never know which one you're gonna get.
SPEAKER_02:Ever.
SPEAKER_00:At least that's exciting. At least you go, okay, like that's at least something interesting to watch, which which Jameis is gonna show up, you know. Oh, yeah. Fire Mike Tolman.
SPEAKER_01:I'm tired of these 9-8 type seasons.
SPEAKER_02:That's not even that's not even Thomas. That's again back to the GM. Uh that like tonight and all that, Aaron Rodgers is the problem. Pitches Pittsburgh hasn't solved the we don't have Ben Rothesburger anymore problem since Ben Rothesburger left. And they keep throwing in a one-year person, a one-year person. They've got their they've got their future starter and the Ohio State kid that he drafted this year. Uh throw him in now because Rogers is done. I'm just like, come on, guys. You're not like Pittsburgh needs to tank and get a better draft pick. Uh, and not for a quarterback, because their one they have might be good enough. I mean, whatever. Go get a real running back or an offensive line, something. Again, Pittsburgh is a middle of the pack. I told you, they're an 8-9 or 9-8 team. Told you that after like one or two weeks of the season when they were 2-0. It was like, they're not a 2-0 team. They're a 500 team, and it's starting to show.
SPEAKER_00:I mean, I feel again, that goes back to what I was saying before that at the end of the season, it's gonna come down to a bunch of tiebreakers because I still feel like a bunch of these teams are mediocre at best, and a bunch of them are gonna end up 9-8 and 8-9.
SPEAKER_02:Like yes, well, yeah, especially well, in the AFC for sure. In the AF in the AFC for sure. The NFC might actually have some decent teams. Seattle, Hamps. Well, I guess the Colts are pretty good. Nobody believes even the people out here are starting to not believe that the Broncos are good. I'm like, I finally you play bad teams, you're gonna win.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, you if you play bad teams, you should win.
SPEAKER_02:Yes, you are eight and two, and you're one of those bad teams. You just you're just the tallest midget, that's all. Smartest retard. That's it.
SPEAKER_00:But yeah. I mean, right now it looks as far as like teams and records right now. I mean, the NFC North by far is the most competitive because all of their NFC West. Um yeah, I mean, you could make an argument for either, but both of them have three teams that are all um the the I mean, right now right now you for the NFC North, you got the Packers, Lions, and Bears that are all six and two, six and three. And then in the NFC west at NFC West, you have the Steelers or sorry, the Seahawks, the Rams, and the 49ers that are all six and seven win teams right now.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Um and the Rams just put one of those losses on San Francisco today.
SPEAKER_00:So yeah, so a lot of it's gonna come from division uh division standings, I'm guessing.
SPEAKER_02:I was gonna say, like we talked about a little bit last week or the week before, uh of those six teams, uh well, obviously one-win the division. That leaves four left over, and three of those four are getting in. So somebody's gonna be left out. Um it'll be interesting. I don't think anybody trusts Chicago at this point. So my guess is people will say Chicago will be odd-man out.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I mean, like the Steelers division. I mean, you got the Steelers at 5-4, the Ravens are four and five, Cincinnati at three and six, and the Browns at two and seven. Like you have three teams there who I don't know how many they've played against each other, but um, looks like they've yeah, but like again, the same thing. Bengals are three and six, but they're two and oh in the division. Like, just silly stuff.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, beat the Steelers, beat the Browns, I think. And if Steelers play them again next week.
SPEAKER_00:And as far as like fantasy league team stuff, I'm just at this point on both my teams, just like making sure they're legal, making sure nobody can complain about me not paying attention to my my team.
SPEAKER_02:How's your how's your real league doing?
SPEAKER_00:Oh, I'm it's off. I'm doing awful. Like uh, I mean, I'm four and five in third place right now, but or wait, hang on. My god, this guy. Sorry, wrong league. Wrong league. I was looking at what the hell. Uh let's see, standings.
SPEAKER_02:My team sucks. I'm in third place. Top six make it to the playoffs, but I'm in third place.
SPEAKER_00:I'm at 10th out of 14 right now, and I'll probably be lower because I think I'm losing this week. Oof. So yeah, I got well, I have three guys playing tomorrow, but I have a 1% chance to win right now. So and I there's unlike our game, since I played you this week, I don't have anybody on the bench that I could have swapped out that would have at least made it somewhat competitive. Had I had I actually checked this morning and started uh Trevion Henderson over James Cook, at least this our game would have been competitive.
SPEAKER_03:So yeah, he went off.
SPEAKER_00:I think you still would have won, but it would have been a lot closer. You would have sweat it, you would have had a little bit of a sweat.
SPEAKER_02:Gotcha. Uh other than that, uh basketball season started. I don't really give a shit about it that much. How about y'all?
SPEAKER_01:Nope. I get um my notifications about the Lakers after like the quarters, but that's about as far as it goes. And check out Portland's looking good.
SPEAKER_02:Trailblazers looking like they're a real team again.
SPEAKER_00:We'll see how long it lasts. It's real funny when your head coach gets indicted for for gambling issues. Uh yeah, for illegal uh poker games, uh how uh the team seems to turn around. So but we'll see.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, when nobody's throwing games on your team.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, exactly. Um I didn't look into it at all, but there I guess there were two pitchers on like the Indians who were like doing something with pitches and are like, yeah, they got caught up in uh the fixing the games and shit. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Something about a pit, I don't know, pitch count, maybe or something. I didn't read the article, but I saw the headline. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Again, all the jokes, all the memes, right? It's it's like it's like, oh no, all this gambling stuff. By the way, this show is brought to you by DraftKings and FanDuel and Bet MGM and ESPN Bet.
SPEAKER_01:Brought to you by all those better than uh Pete Rose at it.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, they were for all of two seasons. Blew up in their faces. Uh but yeah, I'm with you, Jack. I'll I'll I'll keep up with how the Lakers are doing, but I I won't get 82 games. I won't give a shit until uh what's funny. 82 games, I won't give a shit until the playoffs or the last month of the season leading up to see who's gonna make the playoffs. However, I will put on a hockey game here and there. If I've got nothing I want to watch or where I'm playing on the computer and I know the knights are playing, I'll throw the knights up on the uh on the TV while I'm browse the internet. But baseball, but not baseball, but basketball, god damn, it's just it's so boring to me. Because it's not NBA jam. It needs to be NBA jam. They need to make that shit two on two, half courtless dude.
SPEAKER_01:I need to see the Beastie Boys playing uh Bill Clinton.
SPEAKER_02:They'll get my dollar then, get my eyeballs.
SPEAKER_01:Uh the thing is.
SPEAKER_02:I will pay attention when we get to the tournament in March, but until then, I don't want to see it on Sports Center. I don't want to see it in the bottom of the ticker. It's like how many of the 136 teams played today? And you're gonna show me all their goddamn scores.
SPEAKER_00:Yep. Save that for ESC and news. That's on the that's the Sunday when uh the the Sunday when it takes 45 minutes for the ticker to complete before you can get to actual news.
SPEAKER_02:Dude, for real. It's just like okay, Eastern uh or like you know, directional Kentucky play directional Michigan. It's like people actually give a shit about Miami of Ohio. Right? Just play Kent.
SPEAKER_00:Uh the Thorns won today, so women's soccer, let's go.
SPEAKER_02:I'm like, who? Oh, okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:So again, it's the playoffs, so I can pay attention. It's the playoffs.
SPEAKER_02:So yeah, but the the women's professional league is garbage. They've been garbage for a while. The the national team is only And even then.
SPEAKER_00:I think they lost to like Guatemala or something last couple weeks ago.
SPEAKER_02:It was a couple days ago, and it was damn, who was it? But it was a it was it was a surprise loss. Then they avenged it like three days later when they played again.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, of course.
SPEAKER_02:But yeah, give me give me the national games and then I'll watch the women's league. It's it's kind of like the men's soccer league, the the US Soccer League, anyway. It's so watered down with all these teams, it's like make it difficult. It's like, okay, we've got 10 good teams. Oh, that's cool. That's that's that's impressive. I'll watch that because everybody's good. Now we have 22 teams. I'm like, oh, so you watered it down, and now you gotta start players who would never play for anybody else outside of this country. So it's just not a good product. And the more teams they have in America anyway, obviously in uh Europe, uh it's a little it's a little better. Uh but even then the bottom teams there, you know who the bottom teams are because all the talents are top. It's it's top loaded and it needs to be. If you want to put eyeballs, I want to see I want to see good play. And I'm not gonna see it with uh with with MS, what MLS? MLS Major League Soccer, Major Soccer, MLS. So I'm not gonna watch it out here. Like I watched it 15 years ago when there were less teams. I even had season tickets out here in Colorado when there were less teams. Uh I had tickets to the Rapids, but because the talent was there. It was like, oh shit, four of these players play for the national team, you know, one of those type of teams.
SPEAKER_01:Right.
SPEAKER_02:Now it's like you might get one player per team playing for the national team, and it's like, God, I may as well watch college soccer.
SPEAKER_03:I mean, uh the talent is equally bad, so but whatever.
SPEAKER_02:No, that's how it rolled. Uh, you guys got anything else sports-based? Because I was about to jump into movies. I know we got our Monday movie tomorrow, but uh uh Duke, did you watch anything Tuesday? I did not. Okay. I we we ended up watching like now, now you see me part one.
SPEAKER_00:There, I mean, we had a list of movies, but none of them were like, oh, we're gonna we want to go see those for sure. I think Tuesday we're gonna I think Tuesday we're gonna go see Predator Badlands, but yeah, I think we're kind of getting way winded as as we'll get to here in a few minutes. I think we're finally winding down for uh decent movies or exciting movies or kind of tent pull movies uh coming up here for a little bit. I think there's only a couple couple movies between now and the end of the year that I'm interested in seeing or excited about seeing.
SPEAKER_02:Man, I hear you. I'm glad I got my platinum for Cinemart by July. Now I'm at the point where like don't get me wrong, there are probably four movies out right now.
SPEAKER_00:Yep, or seeing movies again, like going back to seeing them.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:You scan in for your ticket and take off.
SPEAKER_02:Do what?
SPEAKER_01:Scan in for your ticket and take off. You're like, eh, I don't want to see it, but I need a I need a ticket on my account.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, for real. I had two more movies that I had tickets.
SPEAKER_01:Bing bing. Okay. Yep, let me buy a shitload of like every single showing, every single 7 p.m. showing on Tuesday. And then just stand up there with the girl scanning.
SPEAKER_00:Beep, yep, beep, and then you walk out. So I'm no, I'm good. You walk in with a large drink. She's like, Sorry, you can't bring that in. It's fine. I'm only stopping stopping here.
SPEAKER_02:Right. I I'm not bringing it in. I'm just you just you're here to scan my ticket. That's it. But I like like I think I would see the the the alien Emma Stone movie. Uh then there's yeah, that I think I know I think long walks out of the theater now, here anyway.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Uh the the Keanu Reeves Angel movie.
SPEAKER_01:Uh is that you're still playing? Yeah, good fortune.
SPEAKER_02:It is here. It is here. Okay. The the rooftop movie.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, and then there's there's some there's some uh drama it was like I don't know, like the husband and wife died of a couple and the and the other couple was like into each other or something.
SPEAKER_01:Like movies.
SPEAKER_03:No, no, eternity.
SPEAKER_01:I think I put my love Die My Love Die My Love, the one with Jennifer Lawrence.
SPEAKER_02:In the title, that's what I'm trying to say. Um but point is there are probably but there's probably four or five that I could absolutely watch. So there are like four or five out right now. Well, I guess now with uh predator, uh Badlands as well. That might be Tuesday's movie too. But oh Blackphone.
SPEAKER_01:I haven't heard anything bad about it yet.
SPEAKER_02:Blackphone 2 is the other one. Nuremberg. Um so there are a handful that absolutely want to watch, but none of them are like, dude, I I I'm not waiting. I gotta go watch this.
SPEAKER_00:None of them have to see this in the theater.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. And it's like, uh like I'll watch every one of those that I mentioned. I will watch them when they're on streaming. And if I'm bored Tuesday, I'll pick one, except for Predator Badlands. Predator Badlands, I forgot, was out. That one is one of like, I might force that on Tuesday.
SPEAKER_03:Um, but I it have to be like something close to eight because uh girl works late on Tuesdays till like six forty-five. Uh let's see. There is checking those. Oh no, I do not want 3D.
SPEAKER_02:There's only a handful of showing. I've thought I would have thought Predator would have got a bunch of screens. It looks like it has two screens, and I could 9 o'clock is the only one I could go to.
SPEAKER_01:It might after this weekend, because it did really well.
SPEAKER_02:Well, I'm already looking at Tuesday's schedule, unless you mean they'll change it uh starting tomorrow.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:But as of right now, I'd have to go to a nine o'clock show, and that might be too late for her because it then starts at 9 30, which means uh she's gotta get up for work at like seven, and we won't even get back till midnight. So so that's a maybe. We'll see. But there but again, if there's something that she doesn't want to watch, I can always catch it on a Tuesday afternoon. Like she's like, yeah, then I really don't want to watch Predator, or no, I really don't want to watch Fill in the Blank movie and like Black Phone 2.
SPEAKER_01:No, I think she wants to not like it. She's not like the first Black Phone.
SPEAKER_02:She thought it was she was like uh a little creepy for her, but but if if there was gonna be one that I would pick to not watch with her, that's the one she would pick me. Because obviously we're not gonna watch all five of those movies that I listed, so uh she'd be mad if I watched like Regretting You without her.
SPEAKER_03:And maybe Rooftop, Roofman, just because of Channing Tatum.
SPEAKER_00:Roofman's been out for a little bit, so I'm guessing that's gonna be streaming here soon. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I would imagine by December. So now we're I mean that's the other side, right? Now we're at the point of uh don't even bother. No one is gonna be on streaming soon. So unless I just want to get out for the sake of getting out, you know, it's not worth it.
SPEAKER_01:Nope, not at all.
SPEAKER_02:So so it'll it'll likely be uh Predator on my own, and unless if she comes and says, uh, hey, I'm fine watching it, uh, it's gonna be late. I get it. Uh I still want to do it. Okay, then we'll watch a nine o'clock movie. So unless uh because this is uh Cinemarca here, and she'll be coming, she'll be coming in from uh Longmont. So there's a Regal out there. So if Regal does Tuesday cheap movies, and there's one that's closer to her time, you know, it's like I'm off at 6 45, I can make uh, you know, whatever, any anything around the 7 o'clock hour with the 20 minutes or 25 minutes of previews, okay, fine, then we'll go watch it there and not have to worry about the nine o'clock time. God damn, 620 is the option, or nine. It's like that's a hell of a gap. So we'll see. But leading up to that this week, uh, I watched uh AVP, AVP, Requiem, Pre What Predators, and then the Predator, so the the last everything but Prey. So the four before Prey. Don't get me wrong, I like Prey. I just actually remembered Prey, so I didn't have to watch that one. And I remembered is that uh yeah, that's the one with the girl, right?
SPEAKER_01:No, no, that one I saw. That one was the one with the girl, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, praise the one with the girl. The one before it, I didn't remember too much. Uh the one where the big alien, big predators coming, the little predator, and wanted to suit back.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, yeah, the predator.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, and then the one before that, predators with uh Adrian Brody, I think. Whatever his name is.
SPEAKER_01:And Larry Switchburn.
SPEAKER_02:Yep. I remember that one quite a bit. I just wanted to watch it because I liked it. I was like, I remember I like this one. A lot of people gave the shit. I enjoyed that movie.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I think uh when I was on Graves stand up, I rewatched that. I'm like, why'd everybody hate this?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:It's entertaining.
SPEAKER_02:I re I rem I rem obviously with uh with the new movie coming out, there was a bunch of YouTube videos catch up on you know these movies in 18 minutes. I'm like, no, I'll just watch some of them. And I obviously I remember the first two. I don't I don't need to rewatch the first two. I can rewatch the first one all the time, but it was like, okay, I'm just trying to get to this week, so I was kind of somewhat refreshed. I don't know if there's gonna be any kind of any kind of Easter eggs or anything, but it had been a while since I seen them. I did not remember the first two aliens, uh Alien versus Predator movies. Uh I don't remember a lot of that.
SPEAKER_00:Kind of forgettable, to be honest with you.
SPEAKER_02:Especially the first one. The second one I kind of remembered more than the than the first one. Requiem I kind of remembered. But that first one when they're in the that that temple and they're going down in the Antarctic, I was like, I don't remember this. So I just remember it was filmed very dark.
SPEAKER_01:That was the side, that was Requiem that was dark as hell. Yep.
SPEAKER_02:I didn't find Requiem as dark as as I remembered. I remember bitching about it back when it first came out. This time.
SPEAKER_01:Maybe they fixed it for home release.
SPEAKER_02:I was just gonna say, I wonder if they did something with that. Because it wasn't as dark as I remember.
SPEAKER_00:I watched a video about it today and like half of the movie half of the movie, they had to like turn up the brightness or something just so you could make anything out. They were like, We think that this they were in the hospital and we think that he was impregnating women, but you couldn't really tell. So then they like cranked up the brightness, and all of a sudden you were like, Oh.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I mean, no, it was pretty clear. So maybe they did fix. It because I had no issues with it whatever whatsoever.
SPEAKER_00:I mean, what we have between now and the end of the year is this weekend we have Now You See Me, Now You Don't, and The Running Man, this upcoming weekend, and Wicked, the re-release.
SPEAKER_02:The week after, right? And then the week after is wait, like all three of those are next weekend?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I thought Wicked was later.
SPEAKER_00:No, he said the Wicked we release, the first one. They're putting the first one back in theater. Just for the weekend. And then they're doing early access. Then the early access starts the following week for the sequel. Um and yeah, I mean Sisu, the Sizou sequel, which I'm super excited about. Um Eternity, which we'll talk about here in a bit. Um yeah, I mean, like, there's just there's a bunch of like like Wedding Crasher 40 year 20 20th anniversary of that. Um for their uh next weekend is also Twilight weekend. It looks like they're putting all the Twilight movies back out again.
SPEAKER_02:Um crossing the streets in San Diego.
SPEAKER_00:The the 25th anniversary of Doctor of the Jim Carrey Grinch movie. What the hell? Come on, Fandango, what are you doing? Internal server error. See, there's literally no movies because even Fandango's like, never mind. And I was like, no, fuck it. I'm just gonna crash. I'm just gonna crash.
SPEAKER_02:That's funny. Yeah, Fandango's like, nah, I'm I'm good.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. You're you're doing a pod right now. Focus on the pod, not on me. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Speaking of which, uh, we got 17 trailers that Duke was kind enough to put together and send over to us today. And we did get a chance to watch them.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, we did.
SPEAKER_02:There were a couple of January, January, there was something on the 16th, 23rd, and 30th, and I'm all like, well, I got three weekends that are busy because these three movies look good. I couldn't tell you which ones they were, so I didn't take notes. And with my memory, I should have. Uh, because every one of these, I'm gonna be like, which one is this? Except for Godzilla. That one I'm gonna be like, yeah, I know that.
SPEAKER_00:Um all right. You guys ready to go through these? Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. Let's get into this. Um, the first one I've sent you was uh there's they are re-releasing Kill Bill, but they're doing it as a one complete movie, uh, where it's never I think there was like a DVD version or something that came out that was a the complete, right?
SPEAKER_01:I thought there was some there was some has been Quentin's done this like for charity or like his friends.
SPEAKER_00:Okay, but this has never come out. Okay. It's gonna be four hours and forty-one minutes, including a 15-minute intermission. Uh, and it's coming out December 5th. So are you guys excited to see uh to see a 2022-year-old movie come out again?
SPEAKER_01:Oh, yeah. I am super hyped for this. Uh one of my favorite Quinton movies. I've been waiting for the whole bloody affair since he said he was working on it.
SPEAKER_02:With new footage and blah blah blah.
SPEAKER_01:New footage, got a little anime sequence in there. Change up the endings so it turns into one movie.
SPEAKER_00:But yeah, looks like they're adding a seven and a half minute anime sequence is gonna be the bridging, the part that bridges the two. So uh Lou, what about you? Excited for no are you not a Clinton fan or are you just not a Kill Bill fan?
SPEAKER_02:I'm a I'm a Clinton fan. Uh and I didn't mind Kill Bill. I'm just not interested in in a five-hour, six-hour theater event for this. Like other events, I I I would do it.
SPEAKER_04:Right.
SPEAKER_02:Like I I did not do it back in the day, but I just circumstances didn't allow me to. But when they did all that uh 10 hour Lord of the Rings extended version, we're gonna put him back to back to back. I I would have went to something like that. So it's not like it's the time for that, but the time for this, I didn't like Kill Bill that much to go. You you tell me there's gonna be an extra 30 minutes on Pulp Fiction? Gee, I'm I'm there Thursday night. I'm not waiting until Friday, I'm not waiting until Tuesday. You know, something like that. And I like I said, I did enjoy Kill Bill, just not the way a lot of other people did. I would rather like like Kill Bill, like again, back to Quentin. Uh I like Four Rooms better than Kill Bill. But that's just my type of humor, you know, stuff like that. Um, and like Jack said last week, uh, or the week before, with me liking dialogue, uh, because Quentin writes really, really good dialogue with people uh with when when the characters are talking to each other, it's really well done. And I liked it and and more so in some of his other movies than I did in this one. Not that there was a lot of talking. This one was it is what it is, right? You know what you're getting when you go to watch this movie. And I will likely watch it, but I'm not like gung-ho, holy shit, let's do this. I've been waiting for this way like Jack super all into it.
SPEAKER_00:Um, and I could totally see so it comes out the weekend that we're in California, so that's that's what we're gonna actually that's actually what we're gonna see on Sunday night after we get done at Disney before you guys take me to the airport.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, it'll get us to that time. We started at midnight, it'll be perfect time. Though, seriously speaking, that might be something for us to do on Thursday to kill time before karaoke starts Thursday night. Just saying. This is true. I mean, I'll see. We'll see how it plays out, but I would I wouldn't be opposed to that. I mean, like it's not top of my list, but I think that would be fun.
SPEAKER_00:Especially if it's like the Man's Fanny's theater.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, again, we'll see how timing goes. Yeah. You know, with with our flight coming in later, uh, 10 or 11 in the morning. Do we get down there in time to watch something, then to get a decent seat at the bar, you know? Because I imagine the bar might, because it is karaoke night, it might be a little more busy than it was when we were there last year.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Couldn't be. Yeah. Well, I'd like to try to get a booth if we could again. I really liked the booth.
SPEAKER_02:That's what I'm saying. I would rather get there early and just kill time, even if we have oh yeah, we have to get there 90 minutes early to make sure we get our booth. And maybe I'd rather do that and have to force ourselves to have 90 extra minutes of drinks. Oh, because you know none of us are real drinkers.
SPEAKER_00:So we'll we'll we'll tolerate our gonna have to buy a whole bottle of Skywalker wine. Oh no.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, it's twisty. I believe in us. So but I'd rather do that than if the movie takes us to oh, we're gonna be late and now we're at the point where there's a line or what I'd rather skip the movie if that's the case.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And we'll just go back to a Funko store before they're shut down next year.
SPEAKER_01:Right. When they go out of business. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, exactly. Go to that mall that we didn't make it to last time or whatever.
SPEAKER_00:Dude, Reddit was blowing up about them having uh Costco, Funko being Costco. Like they're like, is this it? Is this the end? Like because I guess they had a a four-pack at of Funko at Costco that you could buy. Oh yeah. Like a bunch of commons and shit. Yeah, YouTube was like blowing up, going like, oh my god, is this uh is this the end of Funko now that they're dealing with Costco and they have a Costco like type of thing?
SPEAKER_02:Well, they've been on a downhill spiral for two years, so they got greedy. And it and it and it showed. And that's this is what they get.
SPEAKER_00:Uh okay, next movie.
SPEAKER_02:All right, so Killbill. Yeah, so Duke, what about you?
SPEAKER_00:I mean, I'll probably watch it at some point, but I don't need to see it in the theater. Like, I'm fine seeing it at home. Like then at least at home I can pause it and go to the bathroom and that I know there's a 15-minute intermission, but you know.
SPEAKER_02:Uh so Jack then, is this something uh the girls would go to or would even consider watching?
SPEAKER_01:I could probably get my oldest to go, but I don't see the wife going. I don't I don't see her being into it at all.
SPEAKER_03:Okay.
SPEAKER_00:We'll have to have a Quentin uh podcast at some point to talk about his movies and all that kind of stuff. Uh put it in the queue. Uh the next movie I listed was Wake Up Dead Man, a Knives Out Mystery. Uh that's coming out December 12th. Uh, it is the premise is Detective Benoit Blanc takes on a new case that brings him into the orbit of a charismatic priest and his devout congregation. When a mysterious death occurs, Blanc must navigate a complex web of secrets and simmering tensions within the community to un uncover the truth. So this is Daniel Craig as his third and his third uh movie as Benro Blank or third, yeah, third take, third, third revisiting go round. Uh this one has Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Jeremy Renner, Mila Kunis, um, Jeffrey Wright, uh Joseph Gordon Levitt. Um so uh guys excited about this one? What did you think of the other?
SPEAKER_02:It's a knives out movie. The first two were fun. I'm in.
SPEAKER_01:I don't know that I watched the second one yet. Glass scene, right? Yeah, class. Yeah, I don't think I watched that one yet.
SPEAKER_02:So I mean, like eventually, but I was gonna say that that tells us your interest level.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:But yeah, I like the first two. So I I like I I'll probably watch this one on a Tuesday.
SPEAKER_00:Um, or I think it's coming out on Netflix. So you I think it's coming out.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, you're right. It's theater and then Netflix two weeks later.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Yeah, so you can get us Oscar. Um, okay. Yeah, and I and again, I'm kind of the same. Like if if if somebody else wants to go see it, I'd be fine with seeing the theater, but I think the other two I watched at home, so I'm not you know, I really enjoyed Knives Out. I kind of like those clue type movies, um, especially because they when they go back and explain everything, like and you go, Oh yeah, like I that makes sense now. I remember that. Um yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Matter of fact, I I'm I'm with you. I like that style too, and because of that, I actually caught some of the things in the second one. Yeah, because I was paying attention more.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And it was like, oh, I wonder if that's gonna come. I didn't I didn't spoil it for anybody around me, but I was like, oh, I wonder if that's gonna come back.
SPEAKER_00:It's like, oh, you did fire, Lou. You're a black man in the theater. You definitely were like, hey, hang on, look at that, look at what he did right there.
SPEAKER_02:This is the internet, and I'm allowed to make shit up.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, let him be who he wants to be on the internet.
SPEAKER_02:Because I totally read my mouth in the theater.
SPEAKER_00:Uh okay, the next one um is a movie called Marty Supreme, and this one's actually coming out for Christmas. Uh, the premise is a ping-pong drama set in New York City during the 1950s where table tennis star Marty goes to Hell and Back in pursuit of greatness. It's directed by one of the Safty brothers who did like Uncut Gems, and it stars Timothy Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow, um, Pen Gillette. Who else? Tracy McGrady. Um player? Yeah. The Iceman George Irvin.
SPEAKER_02:This one, this one, I I thought the trailer in the theater was better than this trailer. Like, when I saw that first trailer, I was like, oh wow, I kind of want to watch this movie. When I saw this trailer, I'm like, oh, it's this movie. I was like, I didn't realize it was the same movie until they got to the ping pong part, which I hate. It's table tennis, people. It's table tennis. Um, and and then it was like, okay. Halfway through it, I looked over at old girl and was like, first trailer was better. I I I would I this second trailer does not make me want to watch this. The first trailer did. But but it's again, I don't even know if it was a Tuesday movie for me. I do want to watch it, but that might be straight to streaming.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I'm thinking so too. Like, I like Chalamet. He's cool. I like watching his movies, but nothing's like, hey, you got to go see this.
SPEAKER_02:Did you ever watch the complete unknown?
SPEAKER_01:Yes.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. I was gonna say because it's streaming now, but that movie was.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, it was very good. And I I think I feel the same. Again, if somebody else wants to go see it, I'd be down with going to see it, but I don't I'm not you know it doesn't scream that I have to see it in the theater.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, and it definitely doesn't scream more than the Tuesday movie.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. If it isn't, let's see. The next one is called Eternity, and that is coming out November 26th. So right after Thanksgiving. Uh the premise is after death, everybody gets one week to choose where to spend eternity. For Joan, Larry, and Luke, it's really a question of whom to spend it with. Joan must choose between her first love who died in a war or the man she built her life with.
SPEAKER_02:Uh this was to spend it with. It's with whom to spend it. Oh my god, grammar, these people. It should be with whom to spend it, not whom to spend it with.
SPEAKER_03:But whatever.
SPEAKER_00:It's really a question of with whom. Is that not right? Should I edit the Wikipedia page?
SPEAKER_02:That's fine. Yeah, please. Go in there and make that correction. These people.
SPEAKER_00:This is starring Miles Teller, Elizabeth Olson, and Column Turner, who I'm not I I recognize his face, but I do not know him. Like I could not tell you what movies he's been in.
SPEAKER_02:When I first saw this trailer, my first thought was I had this question when I was like 12. The the whole, like, well, what if you were married and then that person died, you marry somebody else, then you go to heaven. That's back when I was a Baptist and it was actually religious. I actually wonder this question, and then I kind of went away for you know 30 years. And it's kind of cool that they're making a movie about it. So I am more curious how they're going to resolve it.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah. Yes, it does look very entertaining. Um, some people are speculating this is our movie tomorrow. This or rental family, actually. I'm hoping it's now you see me.
SPEAKER_02:But if it's eternity, I won't be sad.
SPEAKER_01:No, for sure. For sure. Uh Rental Family is the one with what's his face? Brendan Frazier, and he goes to Japan and like he gets adopted by a Japanese family while he's like working there temporarily. It actually looks fairly entertaining. So if it's either of those, I I wouldn't be mad.
SPEAKER_00:You know what? Give me one second. Let's do this. Let's let's watch that together.
SPEAKER_02:Let's do it. Yeah, because I don't think I've even heard of that. Uh and I show up later at the at the theater now because I want to skip all the commercials, but that means I skip a lot of previews too.
SPEAKER_00:Alright, we're ready to try this out. This is the first time we're This is how the movie, this is how the trailer starts. Are we ready? Let me see. Let me know when you guys see it.
SPEAKER_02:It's a toothbrush and toothpaste.
SPEAKER_00:You guys see it? Yeah, it's a toothbrush. It says it's still loading. It's loading.
SPEAKER_01:So yeah, it's still loading. Like I And it looks like Brendan Fraser too, actually. Is it playing?
SPEAKER_00:It's playing. And you guys can hear it? I've been actually heard it.
SPEAKER_02:That's a real thing.
SPEAKER_00:Yes. You could. Yep, I've been there. That's crap.
SPEAKER_02:I feel scary now. No. There was space on that train.
SPEAKER_00:Like I recognized the guy and the girl, but I could not tell you from where. Alright.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Hey, that worked. Um yeah, I I don't I that movie didn't capture me as emotionally as it think it it it needed to and wanted to.
SPEAKER_01:Oh yeah, for sure. But that trailer didn't intentionally manipulative. So it won't be.
SPEAKER_02:I expected more emotion out of that, and I didn't get it. Like I got I got emotion out of uh Eternity.
SPEAKER_01:The dude is from Shogun Lula, or D, that's probably what you recognize it. Ah, okay. There we go.
SPEAKER_02:Um but but yeah, I mean again, I wouldn't be sad if that's tomorrow's movie.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, because it's not something I would probably go see. But if you trick me into it for a$5 Monday night sneak preview, I am mad.
SPEAKER_02:Right, done, fine, okay. And I'm probably gonna enjoy it.
SPEAKER_00:So yeah, yeah. So next week. Next week, excited to hear what your report is. Uh alright. Next one is uh Mercy. This one uh is Timur uh Beckman Beckmonitov, who I think was supposed to do one of the Jurassic Park movies or Jurassic World movies, did not.
SPEAKER_01:Um, this is the um the minority report movie. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, this one was the best one of all 17.
SPEAKER_00:Uh in 2029, Los Angeles, a detective stands on trial accused of murdering his wife. He has 90 minutes to prove his innocence to the advanced AI judge he once championed before it determines his fate. Rebecca Ferguson the judge. Uh Rebecca Ferguson and uh Chris Pratt. Um I think that would be all the names that most people would know. Uh and this is coming out on January 23rd, 2026. It's like a million things.
SPEAKER_02:Again, like I said, January 16th, 23rd, and 30th. Uh uh, but this one with Chris Pratt playing basically an accused and the laws have changed where you're guilty until proven innocent, and you have to get under a 92% threshold, but you're allowed access to everything with the AI judge and all that. You're allowed access to everything to prove yourself. I'm sitting there watching this trailer and was like, I don't know that I can wait for a Tuesday on this one. This looked that good.
SPEAKER_00:It reminded me a lot of that movie that um Hugh Jackman was in like last year or the year before last. I can't remember the name of it. I'd have to look it up. But you probably know the director from Wanted. He did Wanted with James McElroy and Angelina Jolie.
SPEAKER_02:Wanted, like the Ben the Bullets Wanted from Ben the Bullets. 25 years ago?
SPEAKER_00:Good lord. Um he also did one of his big movies were Nightwatch, which was I don't want to say, I think it was Vampires. I think it was Vampires. It was pretty good, but again, it's from 25 years ago.
SPEAKER_02:So um what's y'all thoughts? You in on this one? Oh, yeah, for sure.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:I mean, anything it is uh um it seems different enough that yeah, I'm damn.
SPEAKER_02:I get I get the minority report uh thought because that kind of crossed my mind too, even I know it's not the same type of movie, but that crossed my mind too when I told the trailer. But then as it the more it played out, the more I'm all like, oh wait, there's more to what's going on as well. Holy crap. Yeah, I I want to know what's happening in this one.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Kudos to the the editor of this of this trailer.
SPEAKER_00:I now I know why it was the Hugh Jackman movie was called Reminiscence, and it also starred Rebecca Ferguson. So I'm guessing that's what made me go.
SPEAKER_02:That movie was Yeah. That was that was late. Wasn't that like five years ago though? You said last year. Yeah, okay. I was gonna say I rem that was a good movie too. I like that one.
SPEAKER_01:I don't know if I saw that one.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, add it to your list. It's it's a nice little nice little brain tease. Alright, alright.
SPEAKER_00:Um, let's see.
SPEAKER_02:What's next? Send help.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, the next one I'm interested in, but that's because I love Rachel McAdams. And I love when she plays unhinged characters. So uh this one is the premise is that movie look great too.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:This one was January 30th, right?
SPEAKER_00:Um the Send Help? Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, Send Help. Okay.
SPEAKER_02:Mercy is January 23rd. I think Send Help was 30th, because that's the set.
SPEAKER_00:30th.
SPEAKER_02:January was good. I was like, man, January's gonna be busy.
SPEAKER_00:The premise is a very good thing.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, this one was super cool.
SPEAKER_00:And Bradley are two colleagues who find themselves stranded on a desert island after they are the only survivors of a plane crash. They must call pastes and work together to survive, but ultimately it is an unsettling and darkly humorous battle of wills and wits to make it out alive. So this is Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien. Whoops, I closed it.
SPEAKER_02:I was like, wasn't it she was like a boss and she was not?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Uh as I say, colleagues, it's more like it was more like a boss and an underling secretary subordinate of some kind. Yeah. And then the and then the and the tables turn when they get crashed, land, and they crash on this island, and she is just maniacal.
SPEAKER_00:Uh, he gets hurt somehow he breaks his leg or something like that.
SPEAKER_02:So she oh my god. Once the trailer started, I was like, okay, okay. And I was like, oh, it's castaway part two. And I was like, okay, wait, not quite.
SPEAKER_00:And then you're like, oh.
SPEAKER_02:I'm like, whoa, that's a little different than Castaway.
SPEAKER_00:If if Wilson becomes a psychopath, right.
SPEAKER_02:Exactly. Exactly. Wilson lost his ever-loving volleyball mind.
SPEAKER_00:Right, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:But yeah, so definitely in on Sun Hill.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, for sure. Um, yeah, looks like it's going to be good. So um the next one is Michael. I think this trailer just came out like last week or the week before last. Um it's coming out on April 24th, 2026. It's for me, it was mostly like trying to figure out like if this was like one of those movies that that shows like him, like when they had real footage of him, it's him, but then when it's not, it's like it's the actor. Yeah, it's the actor, but I think it's all him. And the special effects and the the art the makeup on this movie look to me look pretty fantastic.
SPEAKER_01:But well, that's uh Michael's nephew is playing him, so they probably didn't even have to do that much.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. So um thoughts? This one's uh yeah, this one the film follows Michael Jackson's journey from his time with the Jackson 5 to becoming a global pop icon in the 80s. Uh Jafar Jackson is Michael Jackson, Coleman Domingo, Nia Long, Miles Teller, again, Miles Teller.
SPEAKER_02:They're stopping in the 80s.
SPEAKER_00:I didn't know that. For probably for reasons. Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_02:I kind of kind of like how Rocket Man kind of stopped after the recovery.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. It'll be like, it'll be like, so Michael, you bought Neverland. End credits. Yep. And I'm out.
SPEAKER_02:But I don't want to see the uh post-credit scene if they do that.
SPEAKER_00:Are you, I mean, how much do you did you guys enjoy Michael's music back in the day? And what are your thoughts on that?
SPEAKER_01:Neverland Ranch was restored for this film. So yes. He woke by Neverland Ranch in the movie.
SPEAKER_00:All right.
SPEAKER_01:There we go.
SPEAKER_02:Um, I would say that absolutely, I remember being in Japan when Thriller came out, and my dad brought home a copy of the thriller video in the making of with uh John Landis and all the back all the back scene shit, and it was phenomenal. Um and and yeah, and then through the 80s, early 90s, uh, I want to say through the Smooth Criminal album or Free Willy, which I think was right after that. Around that time, uh all leading up to that was fine. After that, I kind of tuned out of his music, and it was more, and then I moved on to a lot of uh uh alternative. You know, that's when the Stone Temple Pilots and Nirvana Downgarden, all that shit kind of took over for me. But leading up to that though, Michael Jackson, anything his shit was on, it was good.
SPEAKER_01:So yeah. Same. I'm into it. Um my mom loves her son Michael Jackson, so hopefully she's in a place where she can join us and watch it. This is true. This is true. But yeah, no, she loves her son Michael Jackson, so I definitely hope she's you healthy enough to go see it.
SPEAKER_00:So yeah, I mean I'm sure it'll be interesting. I mean, the fact that his cousin's in it, I'm happy that it'll be all the original music. It'll be interesting to see if his cousin actually sings or if they use since now the big thing seems to be the actors actually singing the songs. So you have Timothy Chalamet doing Bob Dylan, you had uh Jeremy Allen White doing Springsteen, Springsteen, like a lot, a lot of a lot more of them are doing uh I mean, even Rocket Man. Um I think he sang all the songs. Um in his way.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, yeah, I I like that with Rocketman Elton John spoke spoke with him and was like, dude, sing it the way you want to sing it. Don't try to imitate me. And it was like, and it worked, it worked for that movie.
SPEAKER_00:Um, so yeah, I mean, I'm excited. I'll probably see it in the theater just because the music and stuff like that will probably on that.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. I thought the same thing. I was like, I I don't get me wrong, I'm sitting behind my couch. I have one of those sound bars and surround sound stuff. I'm not trying to set that up, but I'm with you. I thought the same thing. I'm like, I think this is a movie that you need to watch slash hear um in the theater.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. It's it it needs to be an experience, I think. So for sure.
SPEAKER_02:Uh wait, I think that's trademark. Michael Jackson experience, I think, is a thing.
SPEAKER_01:I think it is. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:You we could probably go to it in Vegas. So we'll pick Lou up on Thursday and we'll go and do that before we head to before we head down to California and then do all Michael Jackson songs that night. We'll just karaoke to his songs all the way in so we all are in the same way.
SPEAKER_02:You don't have one I got one you can borrow.
SPEAKER_00:Are you okay with the left-handed one? Um, the next movie is The Bride. Uh this movie looks super, super fucked up, but in like all the good ways. Um it's directed by Meggie Gyllenhaal, um, Christian Bale, Peter Sarsgaard, Annette Benning, Jake Gyllenhaal, Penelope Cruz. Um, yeah, the premise of this one is 1930s Chicago, Frankenstein's Mosque Monster asks Dr. Euphronus to create a companion for him. They give life to a murdered woman as the bride, sparking romance, police interest, and radical social change. So uh the trailer looks to me, it looks really good. I I think this is gonna be a movie that you're gonna be shaking your head walking out of, going, like, what the fuck did we just watch?
SPEAKER_02:But I uh I saw this trailer uh about a month ago, uh whatever movie that I that we saw. Because I when it started playing, I was like, I wonder if it's a new trailer, and it was like, nope, same one I saw. And I was curious then, and I'm still curious, so this this is on the list.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I want to see it, but I'm tired of seeing the trailer. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Well, yeah, they they they need a new trailer or just stop showing it.
SPEAKER_01:You only need to wait until March 6th. So yeah, so they need to they need like Lisa, they need a new trailer or they need to give it a break.
SPEAKER_00:I didn't realize Peter Sarsgaard and Maggie Gyllenhall were married. So there you go. Me neither.
SPEAKER_02:Shit. Uh I'm I'll I is this the first movie with her and her brother.
SPEAKER_00:I think they've been in other movies together, but I think this I I thought I saw something that said this was her first directing movie. This is her first directing movie. That I would believe.
SPEAKER_02:But yeah, when I saw that both names, I'm like, oh, cool. I wonder if this is the first movie together, but didn't care enough to go look it up.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I don't think it is.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. Who's next?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Oh, I guess she was in this isn't her first movie. She directed a movie in 2021. So there you go. Um the next one is called May Lice. Yeah, Melece. Uh why is it not coming up? Come on. Uh this one looked uh this one's a what the hell? It's not like ice. I was trying to get the Spanish, it's bad ice. I was trying to get the summation, but it's not uh malaise.
SPEAKER_01:It's malaise. About that time I got lice.
SPEAKER_02:That one time.
SPEAKER_00:Uh let's see, David DeCovney. There we go. That's what I wanted.
SPEAKER_02:Leave you. Oh, that's a David DeCovney one. Okay, yeah, because when I was watching this, when I saw that he was in it, I was like, that's why he was doing the late night circuit. Because he's got a TV show coming out. This is not a movie, this is a TV show.
SPEAKER_00:Right. A wealthy businessman and father whose life unravel unravels when Jack Whitehall infiltrates his family during a holiday in Greece. So I guess it's a this is a TV series. So um six episodes that will all be released on November 14th. Um it struck me as like his cali his California Cation character a little bit. Oh yeah, yeah, I can see that. Like not at not necessarily at the beginning, but towards the end when things are when the shit's hitting the the the the fan. So we only have a couple days left to wait on this. So you guys interested in all in seeing it?
SPEAKER_02:I was less inter I was more interested when I thought it was a movie, and then I saw that it was a series, and I got less interested, and then twenty seconds ago, and you said it was only six episodes.
SPEAKER_00:I'm like, oh, well that's that's so it seems like it's a it feels like it's a movie where they just didn't want to cut stuff, right?
unknown:Right.
SPEAKER_01:This footage.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:So and they're dropping it on the point so you can binge it.
SPEAKER_00:So yeah, I mean I'm that's I mean I'll probably check it out. Yeah. So the fact that we can watch it.
SPEAKER_02:I don't know how he gets out of the situation. Yeah, yeah. All right. Yeah, like I said, now now that I know that, if it was like, oh, season one, ten episodes, it's like, wait, there's gonna be more seasons, like, uh no. I ain't I ain't that interested in it. But six episodes, binge it on a weekend, pick a pick a Saturday when college football is over, uh, then sure.
SPEAKER_00:Um the next one, see now we're getting into the part when I had to start digging in the crates because these like something something something something testament.
SPEAKER_02:Uh the next one is especially TV show Fallout.
SPEAKER_00:Testament of Ann Lee.
SPEAKER_02:No, is A Fallout Season 2.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, yeah, sorry. I just skipped on right right on by Fallout Season Two. I figured we were all be excited about it and we're all into it. Um but yeah, I mean I thought they did a good job with the trailer. I think uh uh, you know, looks like it's gonna, you know. Go ahead, Luke.
SPEAKER_02:I don't I didn't need a trailer, which is weird. It's like, okay, season two's coming out. Like, how many TV shows put a trailer out for their TV show? If I'm gonna go watch Abbott Elementary on ABC, I don't need a season six trailer for that. It's like just okay, season two comes out. Great.
SPEAKER_01:You're too wrong, so I just thought it was weird. You're not wrong. That is true, but that is a thing now, though. I mean, people are like, oh, Stranger Things trailers coming out.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah, I didn't even watch that. Didn't care. Some kids are fucking got grandkids now, but whatever.
SPEAKER_00:I'm glad that they're still kind of doing the flashbacks and flash forwards with the ghoul. Um so I think that'll be Yeah, we'll get more of the story, uh, more of the history of the story. Yeah, we'll get and that's how they'll introduce New Vegas, which New Vegas to me looked pretty, pretty solid. Like I was like, okay, like you're definitely being faithful, uh uh significantly faithful to the to the history and the the game. So that to me is all a good thing.
SPEAKER_02:So uh looks like it's December 16th, 17th, something like that. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, for oldest birthday. She's super hyped on it. So nice. Fallout birthday party? No, she's actually having her friends over, and they're all gonna pick a movie to watch, and they're just gonna watch like different movies all day. Right.
SPEAKER_00:You'll have to get the list put together and share it with us after. I have it. She actually just sent it to me. Hold on. All right. Well, we're gonna deviate from the trailers for a minute then. Right?
SPEAKER_01:She said, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a bunch of 15-year-old girls, okay? Uh The Truman Show. Uh I think the new Superman movie. Okay. Isle of Dogs. Okay.
SPEAKER_00:That was And Twisters. That was uh Paul uh Isle of Dogs was Paul Thomas Anderson? Can't say I heard of that one. Uh Bill Murray's in it?
unknown:I don't remember it.
SPEAKER_00:Hang on. Oh, Brian Cranston. Uh Wes Anderson. Sorry. Isle of Dogs is a Wes Anderson movie.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, okay. I remember seeing the trailers for that.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, it's like a suit, it's like an animated She wants to watch Truman's show. Has has she has she seen the Will Farrell one?
SPEAKER_01:No.
SPEAKER_02:That's kind of like a novel.
SPEAKER_01:Like each of them are picking a movie. Oh, okay. Um, that they want to share with the group, so they're just all gonna watch together.
SPEAKER_02:Um, that's cool. But yeah, I was gonna say if you if you're gonna watch the Truman Show, it's not like it's a theme night then. Okay, if you're about the Truman show, I hope they like the other one. I can't remember what it's called. It's stranger than fiction. There we go.
SPEAKER_00:And then you all would probably do the secret life of Walter Middy. I think that would also fit into that genre.
SPEAKER_01:Uh but they had to be PG 13 too. Because one of the girls is Mormon and she can't watch other stuff like that. I think that's a pretty solid list for 15 years old.
SPEAKER_02:So make sure you stock up some Pepsi then.
SPEAKER_01:Right. You guys want any monsters? I I got a case of monsters. Get that caffeine.
SPEAKER_00:Just don't turn the can upside down. Um okay, so we're all in on Fallout Season 2. Looks like it's gonna be 100%. Yeah. Just be ready every week for us to be Fallout. Yeah. Yeah, Lou. Sorry, you can't. You're not gonna be able to wait on that one. He won't.
SPEAKER_02:But I won't. Yeah, I was gonna say, I absolutely can't, but I'm not going to.
SPEAKER_01:You're telling him he can't do something. He's gonna fuck it up for the rest of us, D. No, he won't. I'll still talk about it. I don't give a shit.
SPEAKER_00:Lou, I told you. You don't listen to me.
SPEAKER_02:You're gonna have a whole podcast out of that.
SPEAKER_00:Like, or it'll just be silence like last week. Lou, what did you think? Lou, you're so funny.
SPEAKER_01:That was very insightful, Lou. You might change the world with that opinion that nobody just heard.
SPEAKER_00:Alright. So again, now I'm digging in the crates.
SPEAKER_02:Um we get to Sundance, Toronto.
SPEAKER_00:Uh-huh. Uh, the next one is The Testament of Ann Lee, which is a 2025 historical drama musical film directed by Mona Fastfold. Stars Amanda Sifree.
SPEAKER_02:You guys got musical out of that trailer?
SPEAKER_00:They say musical. Maybe they just didn't put it the musical in the they didn't put that music the musical in that trailer. It's probably smart.
SPEAKER_02:They probably would get less less eyeballs than they're already gonna get if you put the songs in theirs.
SPEAKER_00:Uh it's coming out on December 25th in a limited release. Uh it's gonna actually be distributed on 70 millimeter, which is kind of crazy.
SPEAKER_02:That makes me wonder if this is this like a Broadway play that they made into a movie?
SPEAKER_00:Uh, not sure.
SPEAKER_01:Uh let's see.
SPEAKER_00:Usually they has Lewis Pullman in it.
SPEAKER_01:I have to watch it then. That's freaking Bob's.
SPEAKER_00:So it's based on a care on a person named Anne Lee, the founding leader of the Shaker religious sect in the 18th century who proclaimed herself as the female incarnation of Christ. Which is kinda I that's very that's out there. I mean it looked I mean it looked interesting. So, um is that what they were doing?
SPEAKER_02:Dancing? Okay.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Sounds I don't know. They were dancing like in a house. So I I do think that there is some musical um the narrative emphasizes her followers.
SPEAKER_02:I gotta imagine it's a Broadway pro Broadway show that got um yeah.
SPEAKER_00:The uh narrative emphasizes her followers' static worship through song and dance with more than a dozen original Shaker hymns reimagined as rapturious musical movements. So uh not sure. Uh I mean it it looks like it might be kind of interesting, but I I yeah.
SPEAKER_01:IMDB does say it has um severe sex nudity in it. Severe rated R for sexual content, graphic nudity, violence, and bloody images. Louis's like, why didn't they put that at the beginning of the trailer?
SPEAKER_02:Frank, you gotta lead with that, man. You gotta lead with that. Now I'll watch it. When I see rated M for mature, I'm a happy man. Uh but I except I don't want to see rated R L V. I'm like, no, no, no. You better put an N up there for nudity. Uh language violence, F off. Put an N up there. I need at least one titty, please. Just one. Just one. Some bare ass. One nipple. Come on, give me something. Cyboob don't count.
SPEAKER_00:I don't know if we talk. Did we talk about predators before? Uh-huh. No. Well, I mean, like maybe in past.
SPEAKER_02:Are you skipping wait, you're skipping the Godzilla title reveal?
SPEAKER_00:Yes, because you said please skip it. It was no there was pointless. It kind of was. I mean, I don't know. Well, I I mean I'm excited if it's the same director and everybody of Godzilla minus one. So that was why I put that in.
SPEAKER_02:I was like, who's not in this one? We're one short.
SPEAKER_01:No, they added someone new. That's why it's zero now. Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:No, the first one though. The first one was minus one, so like who's missing from the first one? We will never know. They need to make they need to make minus two so we know who's missing.
SPEAKER_01:Well, I think this is like how the prequels work. So it's minus one, so this would be before this one, and then this will be the last one because then you just go into Godzilla one. With Matthew with Matthew Broderick. Yeah, that one. What else one would you?
SPEAKER_02:So one of the ones I put in.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah, Hank Azaria. Yep. Um I listed this. I think it's already out.
SPEAKER_02:I can't remember the premise of whatever movie you can think of that's popular, but I can remember Hank Azaria's name and freaking Godzilla.
SPEAKER_00:Spoilers! I don't remember he was on that movie. Uh oh yeah, Predators is a documentary.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, I was oh no, no. First of all, it's a misleading title.
SPEAKER_01:Right. I'm like, this is Badlands? Like, it's already out, but alright. So I'm watching it.
SPEAKER_02:My first thought was maybe it's like Alien Earth, it's a TV show, because there were some other TV show trailers in here. So my first thought was, oh, cool. It's gonna be a predator TV show, right on. All right, let's do this. Then it started on my like.
SPEAKER_00:If if the if the pre only if the predator showed up with a case of beer and a bundle of flowers. I was like, wait.
SPEAKER_01:Oh wait, this is not the kind of predator I was expecting.
SPEAKER_02:Right. Hey Lou, I have a grimlock for you.
SPEAKER_00:Yay! So uh this this documentary is basically just talking about to catch a predator and if it was actually good or bad for society. Um so I think it's already out. So I am uh I'm interested because I'm interested to I always like when they when they have like the the uh look back and they talk to like the hosts and the people who were part of the show and stuff, and they say, How do you feel like you know it's been uh when did 2007 was 2004 to 2007 was when to catch a predator was on? But that's that's still in the fucking zeitgeist. Yeah, but that's still in the zeitgeist today. Like people still use that as like it's memed and shit.
SPEAKER_02:Like Hansen jokes, yeah, yeah, all your Chris Hansen jokes.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:So um I'm I did not realize okay, I misunderstood the trailer. Um was that Chris Hansen at the end of the trailer that they were talking about?
SPEAKER_01:Yes, it is, yeah. He's being interviewed, yeah.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_02:Right. So um uh not a not a theater for me, but I want to know. I want to know about yeah, it was like, but man, I got I want to take a take a shower after this movie.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, oh a hundred percent, dude. Like, I'm actually curious to see, like, you know, again, when they do like the this is what happened afterwards, I'd be interested to see if they actually talk to anybody who was on the show. Like if anybody would be willing to come back to the show.
SPEAKER_02:That would be interesting, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:So um, yeah, I mean it got 98% on Rotten Tomatoes, 7.9 on Metacritic. Um, so I think it I it looks like it's gonna be pretty solid. So I think it'll be uh an interesting watch.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, let's be real, the show was solid, so I I gotta imagine that yeah, that the people behind the show are behind this, then it's gonna be good.
SPEAKER_00:Um we'll see, we'll see. The next one is called Man Finds Tape, is a 2025 horror mystery thriller film. Um it is set in the small Texas town of Larkin and follows the story of Lucas Page, a YouTuber who gains viral fame after discovering a mysterious home videotape showing a strange event from his childhood. Two men in black entering his room while he slept, placing something in his mouth and then leaving an event he has no memory of, and going from there. This looks like it'll be really fucked up because it looks I mean, even the trailer, there was some fucked up shit that happened, and I was like, God damn, okay. Yeah. So um it kind of seems like uh like you know, found footage like um Blair Witch, that sort of thing. Uh so what do you guys think? I I mean I don't what are your guys' thoughts on like the found footage horror genre?
SPEAKER_01:I don't mind it. I'm glad it died off a little bit with uh after Blair Witch. I don't mind a resurrection of it as long as it's done well. Um so we'll see. I mean, it'll probably be a streaming thing for me.
SPEAKER_02:Um I mean, after watching Shelby Oaks two weeks ago, I'll give this one a chance.
SPEAKER_00:It comes out on December 5th, so it might fall under one of your Monday movies. Oh, do we watch that or kill Bill when we're together?
SPEAKER_02:No, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_00:Our Monday secret movies. Monday secret movie.
SPEAKER_02:This could be this this could be a Monday secret movie, like the way Shelby Oaks was.
SPEAKER_00:That's true. So um, let's see. Uh the next was a trailer.
SPEAKER_02:We can't watch it with Duke, but we could always watch uh Kill Bill the Monday after Sunday after the game we'll probably hang out with uh ex-girlfriend, because that's the only opportunity that we're gonna have a chance to do that. And then Monday we'll be with you all day. Uh maybe you can watch uh Kill Bill then if we don't watch it in uh Cal.
SPEAKER_00:The next one is Bel Air, which looks like a serious take on the Prince of Bel Air.
SPEAKER_01:Well, you know this is the fourth and final season, bruh. Oh, okay. I didn't know that. Oh, it's fourth? I thought it was a third. No, I think it's the fourth season. Um I've been watching it since it came on. Oh, there it goes. It's not horrible. Um I I struggled with it a little bit at the first few episodes, but um I don't hate it. It's its own thing.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, it's its own thing.
SPEAKER_00:They're not trying to what do you think was fixed from the first like it was it kind of like the office thing where it was trying to figure out what it what it was, and then it took a few episodes for it to finally kind of get to I think the problem is um going into it.
SPEAKER_01:They're like, hey, it's a serious take on the Fresh Prince, right? Like the characters are all the same and everything, the same kind of premise. You got on the fight he got into was a little more severe than just a fight. Yeah. I think he actually pulled a gun on a bunch of kids. Um but I think that at first they were just going too extreme with it. They're like, oh, we can drop F-bombs and N bombs and all this shit just to like say, hey, look, we're super serious up in this bitch.
SPEAKER_04:Then they kind of toned it down exactly.
SPEAKER_01:Then they kind of toned it down to just like a regular kind of drama, like its own thing without being too overhyped. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I haven't minded it. I I've enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. Um, and they've brought back everybody has done a cameo except for Will Smith. Oh, he's like a producer or something on it, right? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Well, he was gonna he was gonna get an EP credit just right off the bat. That that whether he actually has anything to do with it, it's another story, but there's no doubt he was gonna get an EP credit. So yeah. I I saw the first season, I can't remember if I saw the second season, but uh once I stopped doing the comparison, you know, don't compare Denver Comic Con to San Diego Comic-Con. Once I stopped doing the comparison, it was like, oh, this is its own show. If the first one had never existed and they wanted that same idea, uh similar idea, and do it this way. Once I switched mindsets, I was like, all right, it's not that bad. Uh I'm not in a hurry to finish the series or continue the series. Uh but if there's nothing else on and we're like, hey, we caught up with everything. What do you want to watch? Okay, let's go back and finish uh Bel Air. I I wouldn't be sad about that.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Well, it sounds like you still have the third season to watch, so yeah, uh third season for sure.
SPEAKER_02:Again, I I thought this trailer said season three in the trailer, but uh I just like checked it again.
SPEAKER_01:It's season four.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so this is season four. So I know I have three to watch, and I don't remember if I have two to watch. So I I I thought we watched one and two, but I I couldn't put money on it. It is a couple years ago.
SPEAKER_00:Exactly. Um let's see. The next one is called The Rip. It is an upcoming American action thriller film that looked good written and directed by Joe Carnahan, and you know Joe Carnahan from uh Narc um Smoking Aces, which I really enjoyed.
SPEAKER_02:Um and he's been a writer, uh, I think for a WMBA documentary about the Las Vegas girls teams who want three to last titles.
SPEAKER_00:Uh he actually directed the Gray, the one with Liam Neeson with the bottles.
SPEAKER_02:Oh god, that's stupid ass movie. Right, because the because this trailer looked pretty damn good. So where are they going with it? They brought back Ben Affleck and Matt Damon together.
SPEAKER_00:So this is a group of Miami cops discovers a stash of millions in cash leading to distrust as outsiders learn about the huge seizure, making them question who they can rely on. We got Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Steven Yoon, uh Scott Atkins, Coach Taylor, Kyle Chandler's in the house. Um Nestor Carbonell. Um, yeah, it looks like it's you know, there's it definitely gonna be it doesn't, it's not like smoking aces, where smoking aces was bright and everything blowing up and all that. It was it's definitely way more narc than it is like smoking aces. Uh, very this looks very gritty, very dirty, very, you know, dark. A lot of a lot of shadows, a lot of you know, rooms with one light type of thing. But I mean, I always enjoy these types of movies. I enjoyed the town, I enjoyed narc. Like, I think this this definitely falls into that that segment of uh of movies. So you guys?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, this if if this isn't a Thursday, Friday, Saturday, you know, weekend movie, it's it's certainly a Tuesday, the first Tuesday after it comes out.
SPEAKER_00:Well, this is the beginning of your painful three weeks having to pay full price for movies because this comes out on January 16th.
SPEAKER_02:Yep, like I told you, Jan 16, 2330, those three between this one, Mercy and Send Help. In that order.
SPEAKER_01:Uh yeah, no. You put Ben and uh Ben and Matt together on there. And since Goodwill Hunting, Dogma, anytime those two are together, it's a good time.
SPEAKER_00:Uh and then last but not least, a movie that I put it on the list because the trailer's like fucking seven minutes long, and I still have no idea what the fuck it's about. At the end, I was like, wait, she's what? Wait, oh wait, now this is becoming uh um the the I'll give you I'll give you a hundred nights to sleep with my wife, and if you can, cool. And if you can't, if you can, you get the house and all the you get the keys to the house and the the car, and if you can't, then you gotta get the fuck out. And I'm like, wait, what how did we and that was like five minutes into the trailer, and I'm like, what the fuck is happening right now? So it is a movie called 100 Nights of Hero. It is a 2025 historical fantasy romance. Um it's based on a graphic novel. So there you go, you got that. It has uh the bad guy from um uh Wolverine and or Deadpool and Wolverine with hair, which was weird. I still was like, ah, like I you know. Um it has Charlie XEX in it, but she was like hardly in the trailer, so I'm not sure uh how much he's actually in it. Uh it follows a woman whose neglectful husband leaves her alone for a hundred days to test her fiddl. Uh Wow, I can't read right now to test if she's uh faithful or not as she becomes entangled in a love triangle with her loyal maid and her husband's seductive friend. I feel like there's gonna be a ton of nudity in this. So uh no. IMDB says it's PG 13.
SPEAKER_01:No trials up in this bitch. Wow.
SPEAKER_00:That's disappointing.
SPEAKER_02:Wait, wait. The only thing that got me answered is this when they almost showed the two girls kissing. And now there's no nudity?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I think I'm out now too. I was in. I'm like, Charlie XDX, she's gotta be naked up in this thing. Felicity Jones, come on. Like, oh, okay. Never mind.
SPEAKER_01:PG 13 for psychos sexual material, some bloody images and language.
SPEAKER_02:No, no. N, I told you. If you don't have N for nudity, what are you doing? You're gonna have these girls making out, we gonna see shit. It's like, if I want to see, oh man, if you're gonna if you're gonna screw us around like this, I'll I'll watch, you know, Gen Z or the boys and thinking I'm gonna get some titties and I'm gonna get penis all over the place.
SPEAKER_00:It's pretty bad when you're making Lou settle for penis all over the place. Yeah. Don't make settle for penis.
SPEAKER_01:Dang. Right.
SPEAKER_00:Earn that N Just a little bit.
SPEAKER_02:You know, you lose a little bit of your audience, but you gain a lot more of the other audience.
SPEAKER_00:So there you go. 17 movies andor TV shows. Some that are already in season four, I guess. Yes. So uh glad you're gonna be.
SPEAKER_02:That was again, I hadn't heard of most of these. Um, and uh, like I said, my top three, if you guys have some, like to me it's easy. Uh in order, like I said, Jan 16, 2330. Uh the Rip on the 16th, uh uh Mercy on the 623rd, and then Send Help on the 30th. Uh Eternity in a couple of weeks is up there as well. I mean, there was some good stuff on here that was like, all right. And I it made me exciting. Because like I said, the last month has been I really don't have anything that really wants to make me go to a Tuesday movie. These ones, those ones that I called out a specifically, absolutely. I I don't want to wait past the Tuesday movie.
SPEAKER_00:Well, yeah, yeah, I mean, even between now and the end of the year, there's not very much. I mean, like, I will probably go see the running man on a Tuesday.
SPEAKER_02:But yeah, I that one too, I I will as well. Again, like like I said last week that nobody hurt, it's gotten better. Every trailer has gotten better. And I went from this movie is horrible, this ain't Arnold's movie, blah, blah, blah, to now it's like, ooh, this movie looks so much fucking fun. I can't wait to go see this movie. And it switched over six weeks. Uh-huh. So, not bad.
SPEAKER_01:That's what trailers should do. They should make you want to watch the movie more as it gets closer. And then you're like, fuck yeah, I'm there on Thursday night. Let's go. Without giving away more of the movie.
SPEAKER_00:That's right. Oh, yeah, yeah. For sure. Oh my god. How many times have we been on trailer three, and all of a sudden you're like, Well, I know what happens. Right?
SPEAKER_02:It's like, well, I don't need to watch this anymore.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Well, and it's Edgar Wright's.
SPEAKER_02:Honestly, that applied to 100 Knights of Hero. Granted, it could have been a dream sequence, right? Where she's fantasizing about the dude. But there's like a couple scenes where he's you see his bare back on top of the girl and was like, okay, so I guess she fails. Like, oh, it's probably a dream sequence. Um But it was like, oh, whatever.
SPEAKER_01:But now we'll never know because it's PG 13, so fuck that. Yeah. You know what?
SPEAKER_00:Put it in the queue for your oldest for her birthday. Right? You'll have guys, guys, this is dad's selection. You'll have to tell me how it is.
SPEAKER_03:Oh man.
SPEAKER_00:Let me tell you, this week fucking flew by, man. Like, I didn't even I was like, okay, I'm gonna do the trailers, I'm gonna get that set up. And then all of a sudden I was like, oh fuck, it's it's Saturday, and I haven't done the trailers yet. I was like, shit, like, where did this week go?
SPEAKER_02:So my first thought was I'm all like, hey Luke, he said, hey, look, he he's he sent the trailer 15. What the F, man? We're only gonna have this football Sunday. How am I gonna have time to watch this? And then and then the Steelers showed up the way the Steelers showed up, and I was like, oh, I got plenty of time to watch it.
SPEAKER_00:I figured there was only three afternoon games loose, so I figured you'd have time.
SPEAKER_02:I took a nap, I ain't gonna lie, I fell asleep. I didn't see the email until uh I woke up for the night, I woke up about five, uh, so about an hour before the night games and the end of the afternoon games. And I'm looking, I was like, oh, well, shit, I got movies, uh, trailers to watch. And then what I did was while I was watching the first half, I queued up all of them. I was like, I just click, click, click, and had 17 windows open in my browser. And then and then at halftime is I just like okay, play, play, and I did it all the way through. And then when they were done, and I was looking at the game still, I was like, okay, I'm going to sleep.
SPEAKER_00:No, I mean, I think there's some I think there's exciting movies coming out early next year, but it's I mean, as far as like longer term stuff, I mean GTA 6 just got pushed again another six months after already being pushed for six months, and that's gonna fuck over a ton of people because a bunch of movies, video games, all of them changed their dates to not be around when GTA 6 came out, and then they're like, oh, now it's not coming out till November. It's like by the way, we also just fired a bunch of people who were working on it, and I'm like, wait, wait, wait, that doesn't correlate. You can't go like we fired a bunch of people and now we're delaying the game again. I don't know.
SPEAKER_02:I'd I'd I'd rather them delay it though and get it right, they give me a half-ass.
SPEAKER_00:I would have rather them just keep the people on who they had working on the game continuing to work on it instead of firing them and then saying, Oh, now we have to delay the game another six months. Like that to me, I'm like, I don't know. But with everybody, with as many people, especially in the video game industry, who've been laid off in the last year. I mean, it's also not surprising in any way, shape, or form.
SPEAKER_02:If they stop making woke-ass games, they'd be able to keep their job.
SPEAKER_00:I have a feeling GTA six is gonna be about as far from a woke ass game as you can get if if any of the other GTAs are any indication. That one that one has an N on it, Lou. Just for nudity. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's gonna have a V, it's gonna have an L, and they're all gonna be giant capital letters in in cursive.
SPEAKER_01:Actually, the last one did have penis in it too. So yeah, there you go. There you go.
unknown:No, no, no.
SPEAKER_02:I thought it was always insinuated, but nothing actually shown.
SPEAKER_01:Nah, it's full on dick and uh five. Titties? Yeah. Yeah, you can go to strip clubs and stuff. Yeah. Like the first like three through like Vice City and um San Andreas, it was heavily implied. But five, they're like, nah, fuck it. Nico Nico Belic. Fucking Saints Row was already like going crazy, so they're like, well, we need to up our game a little bit to them. The best weapon was the big purple dildo bat. It seems row. Yeah, it was.
SPEAKER_02:Like I said, take your time and get that game right. Lou, have you ever been a game?
SPEAKER_00:Have you ever played a GTA?
SPEAKER_02:No.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. So you're not a G that isn't your type of game?
SPEAKER_02:Probably not. It's not a puzzle game. I mean, granted, if there's a$7 version, we just hang out in the strip club, I'll play that game.
SPEAKER_00:Lou, you've never been able to hang out in the strip club for$7. Let's be real. Video game or not?
SPEAKER_02:I mean, alright, that's fair.
SPEAKER_00:Maybe on a Tuesday night when you're dealing with the C team. Right. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Monday when it's amateur night.
SPEAKER_00:No, Tuesday when it when they opened for brunch. There you go.
SPEAKER_02:I got the 10 to 2 bitches.
SPEAKER_00:How is the strip club? I don't know.
SPEAKER_02:So full circle to last year's year and a half ago Lou's education. Brunch. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:And now Lou loves brunch. Yeah, he's loves loves brunch. It's his favorite meal of the day. It is. It is.
SPEAKER_02:There's no other meal to have.
SPEAKER_01:He's like, wait, I can wake up late and still have eggs? But I can have pizza with it too? Fucking done.
SPEAKER_02:Wait, wait, don't make me pizza eggs? Now we're talking.
SPEAKER_01:At Goofy's kitchen today I had uh chicken and waffle pizza.
SPEAKER_02:Is that what that was?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:How was it to go to Mickey's kitchen and not have somebody pushing people pushing little kids out of the way to inside joke? Good times.
SPEAKER_02:Anything else happened this week? Anybody got? I didn't have really a whole hell of a lot. Like I said, we didn't do uh the movie we just caught up on now you see me, and yeah, not a whole lot much more.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, we ended up just doing a happy hour. Like we were just like, eh, like just uh yeah. Uh this week we got Veterans Day. Other than that, last week's pod was only 27 minutes because it cut out all the stuff Lou didn't talk about or Lou wasn't there for.
SPEAKER_02:I'll try to make up for that lost time.
SPEAKER_00:Right. Now you get double Lou this week. All right, gents. Uh anything exciting this week?
SPEAKER_02:No. Yeah, other than a movie tomorrow, uh finding out what that secret movie is, I'll do the same. I'll text you both once I uh since I got an hour head start on you, I'll uh once I figure out what it is.
SPEAKER_01:Well, um next weekend before we even see each other again, I have a designer con.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, that's right.
SPEAKER_01:And um Fallout Fallout celebration, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yep. Hey, so we'll get to hear about the report on next week. We didn't even get to hear about Disney this week.
SPEAKER_02:So I was gonna say, we didn't even hear the Disney story. Any anything exciting? Anything different? Anything stood out?
SPEAKER_01:No, I mean it's it's a weird time between Halloween and Christmas right now. So like their Halloween stuff is bare minimum. The Christmas isn't quite started yet. Um they didn't have the tree up or anything. They had a lot of Christmas merch, um, but it wasn't like full-blown just yet.
SPEAKER_00:But a bunch of rides were closed, right? I thought I read something where a bunch of them were closed for refurbishment and switching over to the holidays, right? Because now is when like it's a small world and haunted mansion and stuff like that, right?
SPEAKER_01:Well, Haunted Mansion gets done um for Halloween. Oh, okay. So that one's up and open. It did actually shut down on us, though. We like got through the elevator and we went to the hallway, like, ah, it broke. So we're like, oh fuck it. That was right. Actually, it broke. We got through Ray's briefing.
SPEAKER_00:We were running to our shuttle, and they're like, ah, it broke. I speaking of that, I actually watched a video on YouTube about the B uh when the transport's broken. Like how and I was like, Holy shit, that's fucking lame. I'm like, they they they take you through like a short cast hallway, and then you just end up they're like, and now you're the Star Destroyer. Boom.
SPEAKER_01:Like, um I mean it's kind of cool to come in from that other angle to go into that the Star Destroyer room, but I was like, wow, like talk about but so we had to exit Haunted Mansion in the hallway where the changing paintings are. So we had to go backstage, right? That's just even themed back there. Oh yeah, yeah. But I guess it's because that's where like the the handicapped people or something get off. Because you know, you have to take an elevator, so they must take that elevator and um they had a picture of Sally in there, and she says what she says when you're going up the escalator at the end. So but no, it was kind of cool to see the backstage. Nice. Um Star Tours was cool because it wasn't Purgals anymore. We got Darth Vader, Hawth, Yoda was the message, and then Geonosis, Dust Star 2, and then we landed on um Akbar Ship. Yeah, that's cool. Purgle is now just part of the rotation. I mean, they are, but at least it's not always Purgals. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Did you guys uh I I I'm I imagine you did, but you guys do both parts when you were there?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. Yeah. We um a long time ago, little one got um the Spider-Man gauntlet thing.
SPEAKER_02:And um Or that ride where you gotta shoot the Spider Man.
SPEAKER_01:So she wanted to do it, so she still sucked at it, so that was kind of sad. But yeah, no, we went over there.
SPEAKER_02:You guys just just to just to throw it out there, uh, because you know, because you're all because you've always been cool with like, hey Lou, you don't come out here as much, you haven't done a whole you haven't done Disney whole bunch. Is there anything you want to ride? That soaring one, I I don't want to miss this time. That's like the only one on my list that's like uh I I want soaring. Everything else would be like okay, I was like, as long as you guys are okay with being at the bottom.
SPEAKER_00:That's my that's my caveat. But if you want to be up high, I'm totally cool. But I I will I will sit it out. No, we'll win for us.
SPEAKER_02:I don't know what we did last time.
SPEAKER_00:Duke white knuckled it. But I was at the were we higher?
SPEAKER_02:I I I remember I remember going in and and I think I asked for the lower. And then the ride started. I don't remember it being high.
SPEAKER_00:Well, because we weren't, because we were on the lowest row, because that's what I asked for. Or Stacy asked for, or somebody asked for.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I'm fine with that. So and and I and I imagine uh Jack, if we do uh what's it called? Uh the Avengers Tower thing. The Guardians. It'll it'll just be me and you. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yep. Me and old girl will be happy to watch Spider-Man and watch the we'll we'll we'll we'll be over in Avengers.
SPEAKER_02:Yep, watch all the characters, take a photo of the colours.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, we'll get all the character interactions. We'll get up, we'll get pictures of Iron Man and Spider-Man and shit. You'll come out and we'll be like, here's 35 pictures of all of us, uh, of us with all the characters.
SPEAKER_02:I thought about that I was like as remembering her face on that ride, I was like, oh wait, she might be with Duke on this one.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, it'll be I'm it'll I'm I it'll I think it'll be interesting with just the four of us. I think it's definitely the dynamic, I think, is definitely gonna be. I think we'll be able to we'll be more dis more decisive.
SPEAKER_02:Like it'll be uh Well, there's gonna be a whole bunch of I I IDGA F, whatever we what hey, somebody look at the because obviously the four of us will be linked. Somebody look at it and see Jack, somebody look at it and see which is the fastest ride, shortest line.
SPEAKER_00:Who's the master who's the master of the Disney unlocks? It would be this guy.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, it's like hey, uh what's the time on this one? Okay, let's do that then.
SPEAKER_00:Right.
SPEAKER_02:And then while we're if I'm if I get it right, DCA is the one that has alcohol, right?
SPEAKER_00:Yes.
SPEAKER_02:I have a feeling that'll be our filler or waiting for Ryan.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Yep.
SPEAKER_02:And I mean, we have we have 90 minutes on this one. Okay, let's go do it.
SPEAKER_00:And and and let's try Olga's at least twice. Right? Oh my gosh. One on each day.
SPEAKER_01:We'll go to Olga's twice over the weekend. Yeah, because you don't need Resis anymore.
SPEAKER_02:It's only walk-up, so it's all yeah, I mean that that changed earlier this year. Is that what it was?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:For some reason.
SPEAKER_02:Again, I can see I can see that happening, but uh yeah, there's gonna be uh like I'll I'll talk to I'll talk to her as well and say, hey, is there any particular ride that you really want to do? Like I said, I have the one. There's a bunch that I wanted, don't get me wrong, but must do is the is the sorting.
SPEAKER_00:And I'm probably gonna try to do a lightsaber again. I think I would I if they still have the new one. Oh, okay. I'd probably I no, I talked to him, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:He said they're selling out of that chint, and it'll probably only last like another two weeks. I specifically asked about that one. Okay. Well, we can ask when we get there.
SPEAKER_02:Like wait, they're not doing lightsabers, period, anymore?
SPEAKER_01:Just not. No, the one that he wants. They have uh limited one. They brought it back, so they could bring it back again, but he said they're starting to sell out of the pieces for that one. Gotcha.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, I guess we'll find out when we get there.
SPEAKER_01:Basically.
SPEAKER_00:Because I I mean, I could do the other ones, but I'm not super excited about doing any of the other two. Uh, I got the two that I kind of wanted.
SPEAKER_02:Um so Oh oh oh girl, our I I did not see this coming. Uh it's probably a week and a half ago, maybe two weeks ago. Out of the blue, we're we were talking about the trip and everything. It's like I need to decide what droid I'm gonna build this time. I'm like.
SPEAKER_00:We can all build droids. That's also another option. I haven't done a droid yet, so I mean we can do four droids.
SPEAKER_02:No, to be fair, I uh I haven't either, but again, bringing it back to the city.
SPEAKER_01:I mean, you can live here for a little bit, Lou. Your Darth Vader lightsabers lived here forever.
SPEAKER_02:I know. That's what'll be right. It'll it'll be like, uh, it'll be here until July when I drive for Comic Con. I'll take it all back in. Um, but but yeah, not opposed to it, but I was shocked that she was into because she because she did the uh the chopper style droid the first time, and then she did the BB uh uh style the next time, so I'm guessing she'll do an R2 style.
SPEAKER_00:Cool, I'll have to pull that over if we decide to do droids. I'd be down with all droids. Cheaper than a lightsaber. Cheap, yeah, it's more than half off. Yeah, I think I'd be down with uh with building a droid if all four of us were gonna do it. That'd be fun.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, like I said, I haven't built one either, so I I'd probably be okay with it.
SPEAKER_01:So I got my Halloween droid I need to build, so I bought the pieces for a Halloween droid. I just don't have a droid to put it on. Well, there you go.
SPEAKER_00:Time to rectify that situation. So. Alright, boys. We'll do it again in a week. See you in seven. Yay.
SPEAKER_02:Thanks for listening. Sounds like a plan!
