I Have A Dragon !! By Rotten Apple Productions 

SPEAKER_07

Quiet on the set, quiet on the set. We're here. Welcome to another fantastic adventure with the Real Talk Podcast. I'm here with my main man GR. And we're about to do what we do every week. We're gonna go through all the places that matter the most in fandom. Got Westeros, we got Kanoha, we got New York City. As you know, you can't What'd you say? Konoha? How am I supposed to pronounce that? Konoha. Oh, whatever. Now we're talking guys. It's all right. Yeah, it's fine. What am I, a LARP now? Yeah, I think I am. Low-key that's a LARPing, but you guys, sorry. But, anyways, we're here, we're here. Round of applause for us. But before we start the show, I want to apologize to the casting crew. It was brought to my attention that um we've been telling people to vote and the polls aren't there. So listen, I'm not a social media guy. We are gonna um speak to our social media guy and the casting crew. And if you're out there and you're a social media specialist and want to, you know, partake and advance, enhance our show, we take all comers. That's how we do here. I don't know who our social media guy is, but I think you should put your hands on him. I will, I will. Um when I see him, when I catch him, when I find him. But yeah, we're here. Uh Real Talk Podcast. GR, how's it going, brother? I'm good.

SPEAKER_00

But I want to start off by asking you, how was your weekend? How have you been? What's going on in your life? Um Let's talk about it.

SPEAKER_07

I'm good, I'm good. I'm uh spread a little thin. Yeah. A little tired. But you know.

SPEAKER_00

Said all the greats are, man.

SPEAKER_07

It's all good, man. I'm um I'm really looking into this um this software that I need to buy to start my uh directing journey.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Uh why do you need software there for for directing? I don't think that's a requirement, honestly.

SPEAKER_07

Um so wait, what's the software by the way?

SPEAKER_00

If you mind.

SPEAKER_07

It's it's a bunch of them, and I don't want to give out my sauce yet. Okay. It's a bunch of them. Um now a couple of them are more like um for like uh which uh Chat GBT I want these probably do well too. But like organizing um scripts. Okay. Because you know, I have to write as well. I don't have to, but I want to write as well. Yeah. So um yeah, you know, looking into stuff like that, doing a lot of research on uh cameras and stuff like that, because um I'm probably gonna have to be the camera operator. But you actually told me that. Yeah, I went to school for that. You are I didn't I didn't know.

SPEAKER_00

This is all right, man. This is what podcast is? But also, you don't have to purchase one. You can only like rent from like being uh was it BH. B and H, yeah, in the city. You can rent, you know, it's a little bit cheaper and uh makes more sense because you know these cameras get updated so fast. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember I bought a DSL uh DSLR camera and within like a couple months it was like old. Absolutely. So yeah, it's a suggestion, but what else is going on?

SPEAKER_07

Um nothing much I can really think about.

SPEAKER_00

You know something I don't? No, I'm just asking. I mean it's just because you know I feel like I've I've looked back and I'm like, you know what? Let's get into the the man AG's mind. Okay. We haven't done enough of that.

SPEAKER_07

Thank you, thank you. Um, I'll be more entertaining next time. No, it's not about entertainment.

SPEAKER_00

It's just I haven't done my due diligence. How you're doing. Uh okay. I'm serious. I'm with you. I'm with you, but now it's your turn. Uh what's going on with me? Yeah. Um you know, uh, I have this person who's newly entered my life and has really been pushing me to truly get back on my writing the way I used to. And you know, it's one of those things in life where you know life just kind of comes at you fast and you don't have time. So and like you said, it's being spread thin. Two jobs, head potting, ministry work, fitness journey, all these things, you know, take a piece of you away. But you know, at the end of the day, like I said, the greats are spread thin as a part of the journey. So I just gotta get back on the horse and um finish this uh specific project that I've had in the works for a while now.

SPEAKER_07

Okay. Other than that, everything was good. Okay. That was good, yeah. Well, you're good. You're doing good. All right. Where are we headed to first? Um, I just always like the smell of Westeros. Yo, it stinks it. Let's start with you first.

SPEAKER_00

What do you think about this new episode? Okay. Um, well. Episode two, season three. Yeah. Last thing we saw was J Skid Mowed down. And they made us kind of relive it.

SPEAKER_07

So insignificant dragon. Don't insignificant. All dragons are significant. They're magical creatures. No, they're not. Dragons are very cat-like. What's his dragon's name? Vermax. Guessed that. You bear guessed it.

SPEAKER_00

Alright, yeah, exactly. Is that his? What is it is? What is Damon's Dragon's name? The bloodworm. You know, you know his moniker, which is dope. Taraxis, I think. Karaxes. Caraxes. There we go. I just call him the blood worm. What's what's Eamon's dragon's name?

SPEAKER_07

Oh, Vagar. Alright. That's not really his dragon.

SPEAKER_00

What's um Renera's dragon's name?

SPEAKER_07

Calyrex.

SPEAKER_00

Cyrax. Just guessing. Alright. Another insignificant dragon in my my book. Gotta stop. What is that the bastard's what's his name? Ulf. Ulf. Not the one who has the skinny dragon. The other guy. Oh, come on. That dude. The big guy. Yeah, what's his dragon's name? Vermathor. You see how you know their names? Big dragon. Significance.

SPEAKER_07

It's not significant.

SPEAKER_00

What is Baylor's dragon's name? Moondancer. You see how you know? You want to know?

SPEAKER_07

That's my daughter's dragon, though. Because she can fly. She's fast. My point, I'm just saying. I think all dragons are significant. Verax got. What is Jace's little brother's dragon? Aramax or something like that. Blackseed. I think what was this? I don't know. It was Arax or some shit like that. I'm trying to remember because I remember him. Yeah, but anyway. Sorry. What were your thoughts on this episode? Okay, so first I want to take us through the episode a little bit. So we start right at the um the end of the battle, the gullet. Um we see uh Jace's body floating. Um then um we see other dragons show up. Yes. And that's um Of. Um what's the guy's name? I don't know these niggas' names. What's his dragon's name? Um, I don't remember his dragon's name. Uh ver Vermathor showed up, uh Silverwind showed up, and um Sea Smoke showed up. No, they names. They came, uh, they saw, they smoked. They they ended the battle pretty much. Yeah. And um then uh we got Jace's body of Bela. It doesn't show us how she acquired the body, but I think she was one that found it. Um they brought him back to Dragonstone. And this is one of the all-time she has two moments in this episode that I'm like, what do they give for um TV shows? Is Emmys? Emmys, yeah. To me, and I watch a lot of TV. I know exactly what scenes. She gotta get the Emmy. So it's two scenes that did it for me this episode. So they bring back uh Jace's body, and she does the mother thing so well. She can't believe it. And it's not that she can't believe it on a on my oh no, no way, not my son. It's literally, no, like Jace, what's going on, Jace? What'd you do? What what would you screw up now? And everybody in the room is like so confused. And you know who I thought had some balls on him? The nigga that locked it in there had the nerve to put his physical hands on her. And then she did something to me, because the jury's still out on what type of queen she's gonna be, but she did something to me that was really profound. What was that? She could have easily done the angry forget woman, man or woman, this angry person thing. Like, nah, this is your fault, dude. You deserve to die. But she didn't just blame him, she blamed everybody. She was just like, if I kill him, she's not wrong. All culpable. Y'all should y'all all committed treason. What's the point of just killing him then? I found that that was very regal, very queen king. Like I like that as a decision. I got a little pushback on it. No, that's fine. Um then uh we we get that that powerful scene of her being a mother. Um if I'm out of order here, you can just correct me whenever I'm wrong. Um, then we cut to the Riverlands and they're partying it up. They just beat the Lannisters. Yeah, they was getting to it. Yeah, they were singing songs, they were doing the Irish jig. My son Damon was singing with them. I didn't expect to see him. Yeah, he was with it. Uh now. They was they had a cipher going on. Yeah, they definitely had a cipher. So I did a little bit of um, because you know I'm a historian. I did a little bit of research on that time period. Obviously, this is a mythical version of it, but and it's not just that time period. Well, it's whatever. So music that we know it in modern times was a lot different back then. So that is a song, the cadence, the rhythm of that song is probably older than all those dudes there, right? But the lyrics are made up, right? So songs are just uh long, it's like oral history, kind of. So they all nobody knew the lyrics, but they all knew the lyrics, if you get what I'm saying. Because the rhythm of the song just gave them it's kind of like freestyling in a sense, but we all we've all heard this beat a million times. So anything we add to it, it comes with the rhythm of the song. I think that's pretty dope. Um, yeah, the song was dope, the dancer was dope, and then he gets the raven, the letter. And the letter was like, yo, Jace is the the prince. Crown prince. Crown prince is gone. And what was dope, as he's reading the letter, because we don't know Jace and Damon Damon's relationship. It's like a couple of times, it's the stepfather thing is tough. So a couple of times step uncle? That's that's his dad. There are bloods.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but that's regular Targaryen. That's his stepdad. Yeah, it's his dad. But also what has to be observed is like, you know, and this is why like you have to have a good kind of callback memory when it comes to the show because you'll see significant moments. But Jace is definitely like that's like mom pops because there was a time where there was a scene between Eamon and Jayce about to fight.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, I was gonna bring that up, yeah. And then no, no, you're good, you're good. Because uh there's I I have even another scene where he tried to do the stepfather thing, which was when um he was showing him uh using craxes. Like, this is how you get men to kneel. Because it was the whole thing of like, it was uh like uh who's gonna be loyal to who? And he this funny enough, I think it was the same guy that locked Renier in the thing. He got him and like a bunch of his cohorts and was like, yo, either y'all kneel or dragon fire. And if y'all decide to act, you can lie to me right now, but if y'all decide that, you know, you want to be sneaky or whatever, y'all will all die screaming. And he did it. I think Jace was trying to do it already, and then he kind of like cut in cut in front of Jace, like this is how I was done. I don't know how receptive Jace was to it, but like you're saying the scene that you brought up, which is uh I think that's all the way back in season one, when the strong, like when Eamon was taunting them for being strong, because Eamon could beat all of them up because he was bigger, he's more physical. He he went from being the runt to the like he grew up real fast. And then Damon stepped in. A quick little quick little uh uh and you know, but we were all waiting for that fight.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. At that time, by that time, um Renera and um and uh Damon had already like been married, so like there's he's now raising them. Exactly, yeah. You know what I mean? He stepped in, so yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, so we when he gets the message, I found it. I don't know who the um director is, or even if it was the actors decided decided that, because right. You taught me that you know actors sometimes get to especially the better actors get more leeway, kind of like you know, sports. 100%. He looks in the face of the young Riverland kid. I think his name is Oscar, one of the tullies. He's he's a leader, but he's like a kid, just like how Jace is a kid, and he looks at him, and for a small moment, we see Damon like, yo, Jace is dead. Yeah, I'm looking at a Jace right now. The boys. These are boys. Yeah. And that was really well delivered, but no with no words. Yeah, he just looks because the kid asks him, like, hey, what's wrong? How did he know anything was wrong with Damon? Damon is a very like the this whole place will be on fire. I'm Damon. I'm cool, I'm the coolest guy in the world. So he he knew something was wrong. And he looks at him. And for a moment, it's like, these are boys. Yep. He flies to Rhineer's bedside. Reneer's in bed crying, and then he does what Damon does. Damon's swaggy dude, bro. He hits her with the prophecy in old Valerian or Valerian or whatever their language is with the yo, I seen the future. So girl with the dragons. I seen her. Why he had to mention that part though? Because he said that. Yeah, but why he had to mention that? He might like to say. He hits her with that. Um, he also soothes her with the reality of don't let the deaths go in vain.

SPEAKER_00

That was one of my favorite points. That was one of my favorite points because it was like, and I'm sorry to cut you off.

SPEAKER_06

No, go ahead, go ahead.

SPEAKER_00

And I hate I'm gonna tie it into like other things real quick. But like, it was one of those moments where she's a mother, she's a woman, she's very emotional. She just lost her son, a second time losing a son. Right? And she just like, I don't even I don't got the stomach for it. This is where the importance of what Damon is. Yes. I have to be a rudder. I have to balance out this emotion. You want to lay here and cry, but at the same time, she said it. The line, she delivered it great. I felt whoever wrote it, fired. These two boys who used to pull it my skirt, they're gone. This is the price for this throne of swords. He's like, listen, don't let it be in vain.

SPEAKER_07

He had the perfect counter. A hundred percent. A lesser man would have like, oh shit, uh, what do I say?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, what do I say to that? Damon's like, don't let it be in vain. He had it, and that's what it took like exactly. If they're gonna be dead, what you wanna do, sit here and lay here and let it let it be? No. Go get that throne. Yep. You know what I mean? I I love that scene. And also, I just gotta say, there was a there's a cut between that scene and a scene prior, and it goes to show you the levels of acting.

SPEAKER_07

Oh yeah, I definitely missed the scene, but yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

No, no, it's not a big scene, but it's just enough, and it it does give it context. But him and Renera's uh acting abilities, bar none, they're the top two. Yeah, yeah, easily. But also talent, I mean the way they work together. Actually, I gotta give Coralus his his flowers as well. Not just because he's a brother, but he actually has a very good regal. Like he he plays his character. No, no, he plays like there's no other sea snake ever. Yeah, like he killed it. But those two in that scene, phenomenal. They play off each other well. The reason why I say that, I can see the stark difference because a scene prior before he entered her chamber, he was talking to um the prostitute, who now was Renera's lover, slash counselor, who's very sneaky. Who was Damon's joint first? Who was Damon's joint first? To me, she's just whatever. You can say what you want, nah, you would get you a pass around to this day. Um, but they did their scene and there's a dryness to it. He's I could look, because he's looking at her from the corner of his eye. You could see he's trying to create the juices in that scene, but maybe that's her acting choice. But everything she was, it felt like when someone does a table read. Okay. Like when people just read the lines um from her point of view. You know, it felt like a rehearsal within that what would need to be. But anyway, back to your point. Great he had a great counter, and um I just loved when when those two on the screen together, it is magnetic.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. So um before that, because I skipped the scene, thank you for reminding me. Um, he actually has an interaction with um Olf and the other guy. I think his name is Hugh. Yeah, Hugh. Hugh Hugh Hammer. Yeah, Hugh Hammer and Olf the Olf the Dolph. So I love it. He runs into them two. Yeah. And he's like, what the fuck y'all niggas doing here? Yeah, he was like in more words, yeah. Is that who I think that is? I know that's not who I think that is. That's when he walked in. He was like, Why are these two niggas in my castle? Number one. Why are y'all here? Two bastards. And I think, I think um Damon gotta work on his people skills. No, he doesn't. He he absolutely doesn't. That was his brother's strong suit. He slapped this dude. You can't slap a nigga with a dragon. I have a dragon too. That's my point, though.

SPEAKER_00

This is the thing. They didn't stop making dragons when they made yours, nigga. I can slap you if you have a dragon. If I have a dragon, and if we we meet in in combat and one-on-one, I can beat you.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, nah, nigga. I got a gun, you got a gun. You cannot slap. You wallow. You cannot slap.

SPEAKER_00

I got more bullets, but you can't more accurate. I still got a gun, though. That dude deserves a slap. He was talking weights. Nah, he was, but like you gotta chill. You notice he didn't slap Hugh though. No, I know. Hugh wasn't talking a lot.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, he understands, and Hugh got a bigger dragon than Damon does. Vermidor is the is the second biggest name. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

But Caraxes is uh actually not Vermontor has some battle skills. Yeah, Craxies is more.

SPEAKER_07

It's just that the rider thing. Like we don't really after seeing what happened with Sheep Stealer, I think the Ryder thing matters a lot. Oh, for sure. Even with the Vagar thing, but Sheep Stealer's also like a street Y N.

SPEAKER_00

Like he don't listen to that. That's what they're saying. Yeah, I see nothing.

SPEAKER_07

I love that. I don't like that word, man. But go ahead. So he slapped. See the shirt. Y'all see the shirt I got on today. I can't let that can't let that word rot. Malcolm X. He wouldn't like Stealer is a wild street boy.

SPEAKER_00

He's like, he looked at her and said, I know what you're trying to do. I'm gonna get some food first, and then maybe we could do what you want to do. Ran up in. I hate to go over episode one again. He went in there and was like, Oh, he's burning everything. No, no, no, we're not burning everything. Well, I'm gonna burn everything. Well, I'm gonna burn everything. And that dude attacked me, so I'm definitely killing him. Facts. That was anyway, go ahead. Yes.

SPEAKER_07

So yeah, he he definitely like he had he just did a little too much with the with the bastards. I felt like that is gonna come back to bite the team black and ass. That's how I feel. I don't I'm not a book reader, don't know anything. That's how I feel. So fast forward, he does a Rhineera thing, and then they get a message that Vagar and Eamon have left. That is a dog whistle to Rhenira that Alison is keeping up her end of the party. And then they they uh they all dip out. We we catch up now with Well, he asked um the other bastard where's um Coralus' bastard, that's Alan, right? Adam. Adam, I keep mixing him up. Yeah, so he asked where Adam is at, and he's like, yo, he's uh he's at the gullet still. So we get we get to the gullet. Um Coralis is missing. We have a really dope moment between Bayla and her what's that? Her her grand uncle? Her uncle. Technically, yeah. Yeah, because Coralis is her grandfather. Grandsire. Yeah, grandsire. I like I I think we should start using some of these. Yeah, grandsire is way better than grandfather. Grandfire. Granddad or grandfather. So we're gonna we're gonna bring that back. Grandsire. Yeah, so they have a really good moment where Alan, this is Alan, is basically expressing how he doesn't know how to make of this Coralus situation. And he loves his father. She she basically breaks it down to him like, dog. Coralus had the type of woman that he couldn't have no basses around. He loved y'all, but sh my grandmother was who she is. I'm not saying you're wrong. I just don't think that's how what she was saying. That's that's how I interpreted it. Alright, cool. Now that you know she's gone out the picture, he can give you the love because it's not disrespectful to her. He never wants to disrespect her. I think that's what she was trying to convey. And then um they have that moment and he kind of like warms up. Now they all in a race to find um Coralus, and it's um my man on the uh Adam. He's you know, he's flying around. I think he spots him, right? Um they he finds him basically. Yeah. Because you see his body in it. Yeah, and we get we get we get Coralus back. He sitting, they're all on the beach. Yo, the shot is immaculate. I'm I might have that painted. I ain't gonna correct. I need that on the shirt. I need that on the shirt. Somewhere, somewhere. That was some black excellence. Yeah, it was definitely some super black excellence. And that was some black excellence. I have an argument with uh, and I'm I want to get him on the pod with uh my cousin about I don't want to speak for him, and I especially this is gonna be sound very like disparaging, but he doesn't believe, and he's gonna be able to correct me if I misquote him, that representation matters. He thinks it doesn't matter, he doesn't think it matters. I think that that scene was the perfect example of why representation matters. Because when you're a young, well, young kids shouldn't be watching the show to begin with, but when you're a younger adult and you're still figuring out your way in this world, or even the younger kids, like when you're 15, 16, and the only representation we have in media is thugs, gangbangers, crackheads, prostitutes. Yeah, it's it's a psychological thing. Permeating your support. Yeah, that hey, this is the and even if you understand that this is acting, when you go out to do your roles, I'm only gonna audition for the thug. I'm not gonna think I can audition for the guy that has the most money and the best fleets. Right. You know what I'm saying? I'm not gonna audition for the Dragon Rider. Oh man, this story of Valerians and you know, Targaryens. I can't be a Valerian, I can't be a Targaryen. Right. I can only be the guy that scrubs the bottom of the ship or the guy that's selling prostitutes and SOs. I can't be one of the main characters, and that just shows like it didn't it didn't break immersion because first of all, from the season one, they did a really good job of showing that a lot of people don't know that the Targaryens are not even that dope in Valeria. They're not the only family. Yeah, Valerians are the whole family.

SPEAKER_00

The Valerians are them. After you've done I got something.

SPEAKER_07

You you see what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_00

You can go ahead right now. Well, the biggest thing too is if you don't have real historical context, this is something we've been talking about lately, like too, is like you don't know that black people have been in those times, in those positions of wealth. Yes, absolutely. And it because you don't know that, you know, if you only go based on what you see on TV and there's no representation, you can't even fathom it. Exactly. When someone ex uh when someone shares that information with you or you see something that might be in a historical book, you're like, my mind can't even like fathom that. Yeah, like people will fight you on it. I remember there was an old show called Mystic Nights.

SPEAKER_07

Oh yeah, you an old nigga, because I never heard of this. Yeah, wow. He used to come on after Power Rangers or whatever. See, I was already in school or sleeping by the time that shit came on.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, Mystic Nights. Mystic Nights, and it was it was about it was the same kind of time frame, you know, like it was nights, their powers was medieval shit. Yeah, and they would get these this armor and it was sick. So two things I noticed in that show. First of all, they had it was all white people, but then it was one black dude there, and he was royalty. Okay. He was a prince from another another uh land or whatever. One. And I think it was this, you know, Braxton from the Jamie Fox? Yes. He played that character, okay, which is interesting. Also, what I noticed that they gave him blue and gold as his colors, which is the same theme they gave the Valerian.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

So this is a running like uh theme when they put you in the blue and certain colors. Um but the point is that we've seen this throughout film, they sprinkle it. They always show you, like, oh, we're gonna throw a black random black person and you're like, what are they doing here? If you're ignorant, you're gonna think that. They are showing you, and to that scene on the beach or just the Valerians in general, like one of my favorite scenes is when him, his children, his wife walk into the throne room and they have the music playing. I'm like, that is fire. Although, you know, he's with his white wife, whatever. But just to see a black man in that position opens your mind in a different way.

SPEAKER_07

It matters, that does matter. That's the point. That's why I think representation matters. But you know, people, and my boy, I mean he's my cousin. He's obviously a black man. Yeah, he's like, on nah, you should just be great regardless. But I'll let him break it down however he wants to. He's not here to defend his point. Right. So, but let's move on. Yeah, yeah. So beautiful uh uh album cover art on the beach. And um, you know, he's looking at uh what's his place called? Uh The Driftwood. Driftwood. Yeah, he's looking at Driftmark. Driftmark. And it's like up in flames. And then his wealth, man, that was tough. And then he's basically like saying, like, I don't really have nothing to give you. And you know, Alan. Alan? Yeah, Alan? I keep mixing these up. Alan, I think it is. Alan is like, I just need the name. He said he said, I have nothing to give you except for my name.

SPEAKER_00

He's like, that's with more than a wealth. Beautiful. We want the money though. I mean, you can't. I like them. What? Yeah, you can build it. His fleet is dusty. I believe in him. I believe in him too, but you know, if we're going based on the future, there's no value. That's true.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. So that sucks. That scene was great. We got the super black, we got two dragons. You know what I thought of in that scene too? And I don't know. I didn't read the books. I don't know what's happening or what's gonna happen. I don't know why it didn't dawn on them right there to be like, why don't we just get the fuck up out of here? And create our own thing. We can do our own thing here.

SPEAKER_00

Well, the problem, the main problem is uh Baylor's father is Damon. Okay. That's the X factor here with that family because they do have a dragon, sea smoke, and they do have Moon dancer. Yeah. The problem is Damon is her father. She's not gonna run out on that. That's the one connection that kind of ties her to this whole thing. Fair enough. Um and then her she has a sister too that she can't leave, who you get into.

SPEAKER_07

We're gonna we're about to get to that. I think that might be the next scene, I believe. I don't remember. I'm all out of order, doesn't matter, we're gonna get to her. Yeah, so thank you for bringing up Raina. So Raina now, she goes to the veil where she was supposed to be stationed, she's supposed to be there. The she it's actually a very smart tactic on her part. She goes to the veil and she's basically like, hey, the queen promised you dragon, she gave you dragons, but they're in eggs.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

But you don't you can't protect the veil with these dragons yet. So you kind of got duped. Let me sweeten the deal. I got an actual dragon. But the thing that screwed Raina was bad news travels fast. And then Raina told on herself because nobody knows it was Raina that did it. Right. She just told that lady that she did it. Yeah, she she told on herself.

SPEAKER_00

So integrity would get you destroyed.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, exactly. So if maybe we should have gone there on a different, you know, but she she was all tattered. She was like, she just killed her her uh sister's um husband. Like it was a whole thing. Well, she didn't physically kill him, but she caused his death. He caused it, it was a lot going on for her, so I can understand why she was a little frazzled, razzled. Uh, the lady of the veil, she basically looked at her and was like, Nah, you follow? You're bugging, but I ain't seen nothing. And it's cool to have a dragon around. The veil's big. Yeah. I ain't seen nothing. Dragon's here, we're protected, but I ain't seen nothing. I'm not making this deal with you because at the end of the day, if the queen finds out that I made this deal, it's off of my head. But if you're around and the dragon just happens to be patrolling this vast place we call the veil, I'm not gonna say anything. Don't ask nothing. Didn't see nothing. Which I respect. I think it's fair. And then now we get, which is probably one of the most amazing scenes, is the dragons riding into King's Landing.

SPEAKER_04

Tough.

SPEAKER_07

Um the cinematography was great. The special effects were great, the dragons looked great. I think the degree of difficulty that the show gives itself and it doesn't get enough credit for it, is that all the dragons have to do is look bad once and it breaks immersion. Yeah. And that has never happened. You gotta pay the money. Get that is these graphic artists, they money. It's amazing work. It's amazing work. So they fly in. Um before they physically get there, though, we get a scene of Alicent like getting this all together. So Alicent, she you know, Game of Thrones has to have comedy.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

So she walks into the the barracks, yeah. Of the um the All Lives Matter crew, and they, you know, it's like a police station kind of place, so they all butt ass. Um, she runs into the leader. Well, she demands him, I guess. He shows up. She basically tells him, I would like to parlay. And basically, I want to commit treason. Hey, Renier's gonna pull up. I need everybody to chill out. And she's gonna sit on the throne, and I'm basically giving her her birthright. Going for peace, yeah. That's what that's what she's selling. Yeah, she's selling peace. He's skeptical, and we don't really know what his decision is. So it cuts to her going um to the dudes that have those scorpion things and basically tell them, hey, um, dragons are about to fly in here. Do not shoot these things. But the standing order is to fire on any dragon that's not Vagar. Which is interesting because doesn't she have another son with a dragon? But he they he's spoken for, they know where he's at.

SPEAKER_00

His dragon's mad a little bit.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, but what happens if he something happens over there? He just has to fly there. They shooting it down. And that's crazy. And who left this order is Eamon. Eamon is a wa you already know. And then um Aegon's dragon is still in the He's still recovering. We don't know what's going on with that dragon in the pit recovering. That dragon could fly there too. So his is in the pit recovering. Like there? Yeah. Oh dragon. I didn't remember. He got messed up. Oh no, I thought his dragon was dead this whole time. But yeah, so I did think that was a little interesting that Eamon has like a hey, if it's not Vagar, shoot it down order, and there's other dragons flying around, but cool. So the guys again, like, hey, why why am I gonna listen to you? Oh, don't listen to me. The queen's here. The real queen. And then so she's autistic, right?

SPEAKER_00

Um she's on the spectrum. That's because she has yeah, she's autistic. She's a seer. She has like that the side dragon dream shit. Yeah. That also makes her weird. Yeah, she likes bugs. She's a kid. She said, No beast shall be harmed. She has one of the most beautiful dragons. You never get to see it because she refuses to ride it. She's not doing it. Was it um the sunfire and Dreamfire? Dreamfire. Dreamfire. See, they give you the hints.

SPEAKER_07

We talked about this. They tell you straight up. Yeah. So the the queen says what the queen says, the dudes are kind of skeptical, they're scratching their head. Cool. I guess. Whatever. You say what you said. And then they they bug out. They're like, hey, we out. So they we get a montage of them escaping the city, and we think they get up out of there. And then the dragons fly over, and then we see Hugh's wife. I don't know if you peeped that. The Indian lady.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

We see Ulf's crew from the bar. Were they watching? Do they know that these niggas got dragons?

SPEAKER_00

Yes, Ulf flew over the city with Silverwing.

SPEAKER_07

And they knew it was him?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. They heard they heard he was yelling, woo!

SPEAKER_07

He was getting mad extra. Yeah. Does Hugh's wife know he has a dragon? I don't think so. They lost a daughter because my man couldn't get the chicken. But he got a dragon.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. Did the daughter die while he was there? Does he know? I think he left to get the chicken. But they had gotten food from Anera. She had brought in the boat, so they should have got a little bit of that and should have thought maybe it sustained her.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Or he if he thinks. Pretty sure she's dead. I think when he finds out she's dead, that's where things get hairy. Okay.

SPEAKER_07

With the bastards. Yeah, I think I think they're foreshadowing that. Damon slapping niggas, not a good look. So we see the regular phone. What's gonna do if Damon slap you though? If I'm I I got a dragon? What she gonna do? Okay, I'll be right back. I'm gonna slap him back. And then I'm running to my dragon. That's not that nigga. That nigga's gonna pull out Dark Sun already with his sword. I'm gone already.

SPEAKER_00

He's gonna slap him out. He got slapped. So we'll slap. And he's gonna run out? You think Dave's gonna let you just run out? I'm gonna slap him. You're in. It's not you. Yeah. Not good job, man.

SPEAKER_07

I'm oof. He's gonna, he's gonna be so shocked that I even slapped him. He's gonna what's that smell? Like, what was on your head, nigga, when you slapped me? By the time he's figuring all of that out, you're not. I'm on my dragon. And if I die, I die. We bang it out. I think you wobbling. We will bang it out.

SPEAKER_00

I think you wobbling. We will bang it up. I think I'm not slap. So you getting slapped. Listen, now this is different. I'm asking you a question. Damon's not gonna slap me. Oh, yeah, yeah. Because I'm actually not gonna be talking about one. Let's say I'm the one he does slap. Yeah. It's gonna be one of those. I'm gonna look at him, he's gonna know I'm gonna have a problem with this guy later. Okay. I'm this is not the time. Sometimes you gotta control it.

SPEAKER_07

I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna get you.

SPEAKER_07

It was it was niggas around, but it was niggas sweeping in the back. That's something you're gonna do.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, we going to battle, we killing people, all of a sudden fire. That's a much better strategy. I'm just saying.

SPEAKER_07

I'm crashing. I'm sorry. You're not gonna slap me like that in front of my homie. I'm slapping him back. He's gonna be like, yo, what was and then I'm on my dragon. We I'll die, but fuck it. It's fine. Yeah. Craxies is tearing the silver wing. He's definitely gonna kill me. But it's fine. All right. The legend of oath. The nigga that slapped David. Slap David. That's a legend of Oath, man. Alright. But yeah, so where was I? Where was I? Oh, yeah. So they uh they finally get arrived at uh Queensland. Queenslanding for name. And name of the episode. We get a beautiful shot of uh Renera's dragon on a perch. Um Rax. We get a we get a we get a good shot of um Karaxes. We it just looks so dope. And then Damon shows why he's the goat. Gangst such yeah, you want to slap him back. And wealthy, yeah, yeah, yeah. This guy said, I don't need anyone with me. It's gonna be me. I thought this was the dumbest. You see, the thing is, right? Damon is a classic badass. He's not, it's not about life, he believes in the Targaryen shit. Heavy. He he thinks that he's not a regular person. He thinks I can't die. I can't none of y'all can kill me. Exactly. Like it's impossible. Exactly. He believes it. He's delusional confidence. It's fire. So they walk in, and he's a he's just dispatching niggas. Like boom bop. Like and he's not fighting peasants. Nah, he's fighting he's fighting soldiers, the Queen Kings guard niggas. He's packing them up, two moves. Yo, Damon. Hold on.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, go ahead, slap him. If I was if I'm oh if I'm um, if I'm um Hugh Hugh, go ahead, slap him. See, I told I'm getting packed right there. I'm dying.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, but I got a dragon tune nigga. Getting packed up right there and then. Absolutely. So he starts dispatching niggas, bop bop. He he shows you, like, you know what I'm gonna say? Jamie Lannister. He's not doing nothing back then. Jamie Lannister was toted in all of Game of Thrones. Like, nobody wants to fight this dude. Of that time. Yeah, nobody wants to fight this dude. Of that time. He's the greatest. He's the greatest. We never got to see him do nothing great, though. No.

SPEAKER_00

Brienne um disarmed him.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. But he was already fucked up, though, no?

SPEAKER_00

Nah, he was chained. Oh well, come on now. No, that's not an excuse. If I could fight, I'm fighting- I could fight with just this. Yeah, no, no, Brian fight. You are correct. He also was having trouble with Ned. I was that was my next point. He he actually cheated. Someone else jumped in. Yeah, he got mad about it. But Ned was holding his own himself. Which is weird. Which is weird. Nah, but Ned is old. But here, let me add something else. I'm glad we're going back into this something else. Of course. But if you remember, his son, his bastard son, um Joffrey opened up the books and was like, Oh, this night's guard or this white cloak did this. He got to certain dungeons, too. Yeah. His shit was the longest. Exactly. You caught it, but that was a big thing. It was. Had to be quick, nigga. But anyway, um, he read out his James, this is man empty. Yeah, what's going on? So a lot of that is hype. Yeah, and I think they're nice with it. You know what I think of it? It's the Lannisters. You're supposed to be.

SPEAKER_07

And he's a punk nigga because his name is the Kingslayer. He killed the old man.

SPEAKER_00

You didn't even give him a fair one. You just stabbed him as old man is back. Exactly. So you're not it's all hype. I'm sorry. Sorry, Damon. Damon.

SPEAKER_07

Give him the other one. He oh Jamie, I'm sorry. You know what happened to Jamie? The league has just we we seen it's watered down. Yeah, like it's watered down. Began to watch Michael Jordan's and the Kareems. Yep. You wasn't like that. You wasn't like that. But, anyways. Damon dispatching dudes. And like the little subtle, like you mentioned it earlier. The little again, I'm not an actor. I don't know if there's a director telling him to do these things, but he does a lot of little subtle, like moves at Renara. Yo, it's like he got love for her. It's like they dancing. Like he's dispatching a dude. You shift here a little bit. Dispatching a dude, like making sure the blood don't touch it. Like he um masterclass. And then they get to the throne room. And that's where like the real niggas is at. And again, Damon don't give a fuck.

SPEAKER_00

He was it was like it had to be 20 of them.

SPEAKER_07

He was ready.

SPEAKER_00

I like that Renara pulled out her sword, but I already knew. They they did exactly what I would have done.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can't laugh at the queen, bro. Cannot laugh at the queen. Can't do that. That's what they did, though. And what happened to them? They're not dead. We're not putting it. We don't know what happened to them. You're right. We'll see. So he pulls out his blade. So be it. Y'all, y'all cannot kill me. I'm a Targaryen. Like the common man cannot kill me. And then we hear some martial coming in from the back. It's a bunch of niggas in gold shit. A bunch of cops pull up. Gold cloaks. And I'm like, oh nah. This was a trap. I'm watching this live. I'm like, yo. But you see, I know it's not a trap. Allison just didn't get her job done. And Ranier's not going to know that. And I'm like, damn, this is this is how Team Black loses. They're about to get rid of the king and queen. I thought it was over. Well, the the the prince. I hate that they keep calling Damon the prince, though. He's a prince. I get it. But don't call me a prince. Find a new new thing.

SPEAKER_00

One of his original plans was to marry Rhanera and think he was going to dominate her and be the king.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

And then no, the witchcraft.

SPEAKER_07

Aaron Hall humbled him. That's gonna matter. I'm I miss I missed the part. I'm gonna get back to it. Go for it, go for it. So Damon looks back, to the front, still unfazed. This guy really was like, I'm gonna win this. And then the gold cloak started talking up. He was like, yo, like Damon gave me this badge. Right. This I'm the chief of police today, but he is the chief of police. He made me the chief. He made me the bitch. I'm not doing that. And lay down your arms, bro.

SPEAKER_00

Because y'all not beating us and Damon. Exactly. Like, it's not gonna happen. Damon, you gotta remember, Damon's a like he's a he's a rough rider, pause, but he taught them how to be gangsters. Yeah, I remember.

SPEAKER_07

He was in the streets on the All Lives Matter joint. He was there. I remember All Lives Matter? Yeah, he was on some Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter. Y'all get crazy in these streets, yeah. He was like, this is King's Landing. What y'all doing? Cut that nigga's hand off. The lore goes, he cleaned up clean. Yeah, that's yeah, that's the lore, yeah. Anyway, yeah, I rock with him, yeah. So they they have to throw down their swords, and then we get, you know, Renier is like taking it all in. And then um uh they go to the the cells.

SPEAKER_00

The dungeons, yeah.

SPEAKER_07

And they release all the people that were loyal. Those are some strong people. To be sitting in that filth, and they're nobles, and they have no idea. Shout out to all things they're about to die.

SPEAKER_00

Because they have no idea this is gonna ever happen. I thought Eamon would have killed them already, to be honest, but Eamon must have forgot about them. Or he He's worried about bagging his mom.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. So they come out, there's a whole like court now kind of in session kind of thing, and then some old dusty dude from like the deepest part is like, yo, Laris, Larry, Laris, Laris, strong, left you something. And we see Damon go to that something, and he lets out a cac. I don't even think he was acting. I think that was the like that was Damon. Like he was legitimately like, oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, he waited for that because Otto used to hamstring. Yo, they have all the time. You know what's funny?

SPEAKER_07

Um go back and watch episode um season one. Damon and Coralus became cool over their hatred of Otto. Otto has always been, mind you, Otto is why they're in this situation. Damon's brother was the king. Jaheris.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

And Otto was his man's. It's and he every time he could, he was disrespectful to Damon. Yep. He was always putting his thumb on the scale for like, yo, you gotta get Damon out of here. He's gonna ruin your legacy as a king.

SPEAKER_00

Your brother is a nut. Married his daughter to the king. He did that. That was one of his biggest plays ever was having to go talk to him. But yeah. Oh, that was gangster. That was gangster. Questionable, but I understand what he was trying to do.

SPEAKER_07

It worked. She was like 14. It worked. Yeah. Work. So we don't know who it is as the as the as the audience. We don't know why he's left. I didn't even, I honestly God did not. I didn't forgot about it. I thought he was uh back at his spot. Didn't he get sent back? I'm gonna have to go research because I'm that's that's what I thought happened. That's what I thought he was this whole time. I thought he went back to his joint. He got banished, right? They were like, I don't need you as a hand anymore. Sir Christian Cole's my hand. Pack that up. Yeah, I didn't know they locked him up.

SPEAKER_00

And that's their grandfather. That's why, you know what? I have to go back and look because and when I when I start to talk a little bit, I'm gonna show you like there's some things that are go ahead.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, that's that's the grandfather. So they bring him out, and then they bring out the um the dude that uh tried to um sexually assault Alicent because And you know what? He he was he was wrong for his physical actions, obviously. But he actually called out Alison for her hypocrisy. Yeah, like bro, you You sleeping with Kristen Cole. Yeah, and then that's the same thing you was mad at Ronair for. But Ranera did that when she was a child. Yeah, you a wrong ass woman doing that.

SPEAKER_00

This is great writing, but the the rape was kind of off. Yeah, that you know he was like, I'm sure I'm getting mine. Yeah, and luckily the black man saved her.

SPEAKER_07

The same black dude who almost got his head cut off. Yeah, he almost got a head cut off again by Damon. Yeah, I don't believe it's nuts. Aamon tried to kill him, Damon tried to kill him, and he saves. If I'm him, like I don't need to beat the Grand Macon. Just let me leave because y'all always should be able to do it. You've seen too much. Yeah, you gotta stay. Yeah, that's the problem when you're too close to the royals. You you know they're dirt. You strive to get there, and then as soon as there's new power on it, you gotta get rid of him. Yeah, like he knows too much. So yeah, they bring out uh Mr. Touchy, I don't know his name, but he's the master of laws or something like that. He kept screaming at. Like, I may I'm the master of law. Something on hand me. Gotta watch it again. I made the law. We can do this. Yeah, I think he's the master of law. I pulled her girdle down. Yeah, he was wilding. Um, and then they put Otto, and she's like it's like all the emotion that like Otto is the re you said it perfectly. He's the reason that her kids are dead. Her well, he's not the reason her father died, but her kids are dead. She's like this whole all the bloodshed is because Otto had too much grandiose ideas of putting his family on the throne through you know the Targaryen line. And you can see the actress just it you literally watch it boil up. Such a such a great applause for Emma Darcy. Oh, I told you she gets the Sorry, never done it before. Big fingers. Sorry. That was an accident. But yeah, um, yeah, she she's phenomenal. But I'm I'm I'm gonna get to the scene that sells it for me. So Damon, the court, all the chattering, he's telling her, like, yo, dog, you know, this is the Ned Stark thing. If you cast the judgment, you must swing the sword. 100%. And she's like, you can see her, she's like, yo, I don't know if I got this in me. And it's taking a little long. You know, the murmuring started getting louder when things start taking long. And then he starts talking, which is the mistake. Why are you talking? Why are you talking? You talk too much in Game of Thrones. Yeah, just shut up. He he could have survived that. I think if he stayed quiet. Otto? I honest to God, I think if he didn't say anything, I think Ranaire does the same thing she did with Dude in the castle. Like, what why do I have to kill you? Like, I'd rather just Nah, that was he was gonna die. Um, Damon was gonna make sure of it. So Damon did make sure of it. He basically told her, like, hey, you have to do this. Yeah. And Otto opens his big mouth. Well, actually, I would prefer if Damon killed me because she can't swing a sword because she's a woman. That's pretty much what he said. He said, I want to be hacked to death. Yeah, which is crazy. And sometimes you gotta get hacked to death. So she swings. What's her sword called? You know what it's called? She had Jace's sword too. Nah, he gave Didn't he give her dark sister the? Yeah, he gave her dark sister. He gave her dark sister, but she also had Jace's sword, which is another sharp, which is another touch. Oh, I forgot what it's called, but yeah. I don't know. So she swings, she hits him in the like the in mid mid-sentence, too. She closed her eyes at first. Yeah, because passion. She hit him in the back, like Mr. Nate. He lets out a very dramatic. Oh, because you know. That joy hurts. I mean, I would imagine. And then you hit with a machete before? No. Alright. And then he turns, before he gets to say another word, she eliminates his head. And it was clean, too.

SPEAKER_00

Clean cut. Just a little callback. This is how we know Fion's mask off. Oh, yeah, he was hacking, dude. He was OD'ing. He had to kick it off. Yeah, like nah. I'm Targaryen, but anyway.

SPEAKER_07

Took her twice, but she did it clean the second time.

SPEAKER_00

Right.

SPEAKER_07

And then the head rolls, the blood spills, the crowd is silent. Because they're like, oh no, the queen's here. She did it. She's the queen. She's the queen. Um, she walks, and I was I was scared. She's she steps in the blood, and in from in the blood, this is a great uh cinematography. Phenomenal. There's the it's a mirror image. And that blood doesn't just represent Otto's blood, it represents all the blood. All the blood. Um, the younger blood. Everybody. Oh beautiful. And then she's like walking very daintily to the throne. And I remembered that the throne, because everything in Game of Thrones has mystical properties. If the throne does not accept you, it will harm you. Right. So I'm in my heart is beating now because I'm like, yo, she's gonna get pricked like her dad did. Because remember, he got pricked, and then that's when the festation started, and he ended up dying. The throne technically killed him.

SPEAKER_00

100%. That's when he's poisoned.

SPEAKER_07

And I don't know if you peeped this and I could just be reaching. I felt like she started off very feminine, and by the time she got to the top, she was more I'm not gonna say masculine, but she was more regal. Like, I belong here. That's kind of like what I got.

SPEAKER_00

I saw a darkness kind of hit her.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, that's fair.

SPEAKER_00

It was like she looked up and she was actually more hunched over in a walk, which I was noticing. I'm like, she's walking very like Yeah, very weird. Not upright.

SPEAKER_04

So she sits down, and then to me, this is the scene that sold it for me. She sits down. Allison and her daughter are captured and rushed in.

SPEAKER_07

Alison sees her dead father's head and body. She looks up at Rhineira.

SPEAKER_04

Rhaenyra goes from sad and unsure to that's not what I got for this day, but I hate it. And what are you gonna do with that part? I was like, yo, I gotta hit it properly.

SPEAKER_07

Fire. That to me, man. Acting is people, yo, people shit on actors a lot. I know. It's not easy. Because I honestly got there's a lot of whack actors. The pool is massive. But I don't know where this they found uh way they found where where they found they, because she's a they. They are a they but that was phenomenal. That was there was no words. It was all face and physical. How did you do that? How many times in the mirror did she practice that? She told a story there. Yeah. In a very tight window. That's what I'll be telling people, yo. That's how the episode ends. But I'm gonna go back. We gotta do some some because something happened with Eamon.

SPEAKER_04

And something happened with Damon.

SPEAKER_07

So Amon, obviously, is going to Heron Hall. And Amon is a mirror of Damon. He gets to Heron Hall. Idolatry Damon. No, and it it this episode showed it to me. He gets to Heron Hall, which um Damon did the same thing. He got to Heron Hall. He pulled out his sword. He did the corners thing. He was doing the thing. Like his sword was a gun. He was turned like and he gets to the strong. That's the last strong remaining. I didn't remember that. I thought he died. He's a strong. Sure. Yeah. That's the strongest.

SPEAKER_00

Laris was a strong.

SPEAKER_07

No, Laris is a strong. The kids' dads are strong is strong. He remembered he killed a bunch of them. I think those are strong. Now they are. That's Heron Hall. That's their home. Alright, well, let me double- Now look it up, look it up. That's their home. I forgot about that.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

So he gets their Vagar. Immediately he destroys like a bunch of dudes that's just standing outside. Because you know, they think they're safe. They got dragons, because remember, Damon was just there. And he gets to um Harrenhall. And the story about Harrenhall is it's kind of like dragon proof because Balerian, which was the biggest dragon ever, didn't destroy it. Couldn't penetrate it. He melted it. Like a lot of it, but he didn't destroy it. And he gets there with Vagar. Vagar, beautiful scene of Vagar just like poking her head in there, killing a bunch of dudes. And then we see Eamon cutting dudes up. It's cool. It's not as efficient as uh Damon. It's cool though. But then the the scene that really shows you the difference between the two of them, he gets in the room. When Damon got there, he's like, What are y'all doing? I'm I'm taking this castle. And they're like, sit down, eat with us. And Damon's like, I'll sit. I'm not getting poisoned by y'all. I'm not stupid. We see Eamon. He gets there, you pick up a sword. I'm eating. I'm an old man. I'm not picking up a sword. Like, you can you want to take the blaze? You can take the blaze. Like, don't gotta be violent.

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_07

He's like, nah. I need you to pick up a sword. So the guy gets up and he just goes to him like, yo, bro, it's no smoke. Put his hand on him. We chillin', bro. Like. Always a mistake. Did too much talking. Yeah, slap him. He put I'm slap. Especially this dude. I'm putting him in the headlock. Popping out that sapphire eye. Alright. I'm putting him in the headlock. I'm oof. I got a dragon? I'm doing all of that to him. He got a dragon, too. Yeah, he got the biggest dragon. Go ahead. Alright. So he does a dishonorable thing. Yeah, it was super dishonorable. And he kills the old man. That's the last, that's the daddy's drawn. He's done. And then the other boys or men that were standing there finally get their shit together and they start attacking him. Nah, one of them didn't attack him. Oh, the other guy just died? One of them, like, look, dude. He just got cut up. Eamon turned around and said, Oh wow. Well, one guy finally had the stones to stab him. And this is where I think that Eamon and Damon differ. I don't think none of this happens to uh to Damon. And then he does the thing that we know ain't you know what's funny? This is the first time Eamon is ever wearing armor in the whole show.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_07

He's never worn armor before. I think he's terrified. I think he's scared.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_07

But that armor didn't stop that blade. It's always that small blade you don't see coming. There's spots. Yeah. Got him. And then we see him crawling. And then he runs into the Witch of Heron Hall. And he begs her. I don't think, I don't think Damon begs. Talking about some help me. Yeah, I don't think Damon does. I think Damon dies. He's like, cool. So I'll go out. I killed everybody though. I did my job. But yeah, he begs her. She has a look on her face. And prior to this whole thing, if we go all the way back, and I'm sorry I'm telling this out of order. I'm doing this all off of memory. I didn't write nothing down. Right before uh Damon leaves to um to um Dragonstone, he has a conversation with the witch. Yeah. She says, yo, give me Heronhall. And this is where Damon's people management comes into. If I'm Damon, I just lie. That's worse than what doing what he did. No, hell no. That's way worse than that. Hell no. And I'm gonna tell you why it's not. He tells her, You don't have you're you're a nobody. You're a commoner. You don't have a name. Yeah. You don't have a title. I'm not giving you Harrenhall. It don't work like that. And on top of that, I'm gonna just, you know, I I can give you money or something. Yeah. And she said, I I want this, and you're giving me rubies. She said, Well, I want Braddy, you give me rubies. Yeah. Yeah. I want Braddy giving me rubies. Great line, poorly delivered, in my opinion. But yeah. I don't, yeah, I'm not really sold on her. But um, and he makes the critical mistake of basically telling her, I'm not giving you Harrenhall. We could maybe parlay about something else, but Haronhall's off the table for you after she's begging for it. After she's like, yo, I delivered you the Riverlands. Right. He's just like, You did help. Classic Damon. Thanks. I think I did most of the work, but you did help. Yeah. But um, I got shit to attend, and I can't promise you that. I think he should have at least said, I'll talk to the queen. At least I'll figure out what I can do. He just told her no. And then he told her why no. And it's just the whole story of Game of Thrones about how the common people are just always overlooked and under the foot of these nobles and houses, like, and it's gonna come back to bite him in the ass because I think that if he deli would have told her at least I'll talk to the queen, or hey, I got you, you know, he can just hit with I got you. Right. I think she lets Damon die. I mean, Eamon die right there. I think she she might take the deck and put it back. I think what she's about to do is about to soup this nigga up. And she warned, she warned Damon, don't come back here. Right. So she already must have known. She told him, You're gonna die here. And she told him after after he dubbed her, don't come back here. That was her final warning to him. So what I think is gonna happen, and Damon is my favorite character. He might be my, I'm saying now, he's my favorite character in all Game of Thrones so far. Over Rob? Yeah. He's he surpassed Rob. Because Rob, Rob got busy as a tactical guy, like he was a great leader of his men. I'm not saying he didn't get busy. With no dragon. Yeah, he had no dragon, but he had a big ass wolf, bro. He's catching bodies about that wolf. He had a big ass wolf. I love Rob, though. Wolf versus Dragon, sorry. I love Rob. Do not this is not Rob slander. But I just have more game tape on Damon at this point. This is true. His work is phenomenal, bro. But you would slap him, though. Let's just go back to that. If I was Of. Wow. I would slap anybody in Game of Thrones. They're not slapping me. All right, that's fine, but you have to be tactical. This is Game of Thrones.

SPEAKER_00

I'm not being if you're if we're navigating the bull of Game of Thrones, me and you, you're gone the first episode. Probably. I'm making it to at least the second season. Probably. I'm not getting slapped.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

I'm just not doing it.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not making it through an episode.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I'm probably not. But remember, I said it's because I have a dragon. Now, if I was off without the dragon, then I gotta get slapped. Dragon and not bro. Specifically Damon. Yes, he's probably the worst character to slap. But that's why it would be so effective. I go down as a legend. You're not gonna go down as a legend. I'm off the nigga that slapped Damon.

SPEAKER_00

You're gonna be the reason why people never slapped a legend.

SPEAKER_07

Yes, I am. Not a legend. You heard about the last nigga that slapped him? That's that's gonna be my legacy. The worst dick. But he but he slapped him though. Last dude who slapped him? His face got split like Corless's brother's. He slapped him. Yeah, that was that was a great. You see, I have too much. I'm going to give it game tape is sick. Yeah, yeah. Damon has his chance. And a ew one liner too. Cut him and was like, he can keep his tongue. He can keep his tongue. Rob's don't got no shit like that. And again, I love Ra. I love Ra. And Rob got his mom's kill. Rob's mom.

SPEAKER_00

He did have a good lineup. Anyway, go ahead.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, so yeah, the lat the last thing she told Damon was you're gonna die here. And yeah, we watch. I think she's just gonna soup up Eamon. Damon and Eamon are gonna have their their 1v1. Both dragons die in the collision. And I think this is what I want to happen. I think Eamon wins the fight, but he dies. What's probably gonna happen is You all over the place. Eamon wins the fight. What do you mean? You all over the place. It's awesome. You say Eamon's gonna win? Yeah, no, I think Damon. What I want to happen is Damon to win the fight. But I think Eamon wins the fight. Nah.

SPEAKER_00

You wild. How you gonna sit here and say you got a game tape? We don't we don't have a lot of game tape on Eamon to be honest. Nah, but he's about to get he's about to get that supernatural juice. I don't think it's gonna be no supernatural juice. I think she just revives him. She don't got no supernatural juice. She could have she would have juiced up Damon then. Well, she don't have to. He wasn't fighting nobody. She that was the person to do it for because if she wanted Harrenhall, she would have gave it to him.

SPEAKER_07

And the nigga spurned her. So now she's about to use her real magic.

SPEAKER_00

When he was there for a whole season, she's supposed to be souping him up. All she did was like basically get his mind right and make it as it needs to be. But she um she can't soup up Eamon. I think she's about to, nigga. Nah, maybe she's about to turn him into the Night King. Uh it's not happening. Yeah, she's about to have a laser beam eye.

SPEAKER_07

That's that's that's how he beats he beats him. Yeah, yeah. Um about the whole episode. Yeah, yeah. Sorry, that was long-winded.

SPEAKER_00

No, no, that's fine. You covered most of it, honestly. Um uh rest in peace, Jace, mad insignificant. Emma Darcy, if you ever get a chance to hear this, you are a phenomenal artist. You did a great I can't even put into words. The amount of times I was waiting for her to put her hands on her son's body and the like, I can't touch him, I can't touch him, was like, that's that's physical acting, that's peak physical acting. Like that moment, we it was it was just heavy. And then um, you know, like you said, this guy put his hands on it was wild, but he's trying to do his duty, and then he even said to her, like, listen, my life is forfeit. And she said before she left to go to Queen's Landing, let him try choose how he dies, but he has to die. Was it dragon fire, head getting cut off, hung, whatever. But uh yeah, he's he's packed up. Um again, back to that scene before they go into uh before Damon goes into Renera's chambers. Um I thought that was one of the weakest scenes in the show. Maybe that's just how she chooses to play that character. But if you watch it again, it's almost like two totally different levels of acting, and um it just doesn't hit the way it should because given their history, you would think that there's more of a like a low-key sexual tension, but also like uh like yo, I'm not playing, you're not gonna step in my spot and be controlling my wife.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, it's almost as if um if you didn't know the show, then you would never be able to know that they used to do anything. Exactly. Like they didn't even know each other. They had a heat, they had a big part in season one to get in.

SPEAKER_00

It's just like, okay, I guess it's this girl coming stepping in. Wasn't he gonna marry her? Am I bugging? He played like he was married because he stole a dragon egg or something like that. Yeah, he was on some like I'm about to marry a process. She's like, yo, you're wilding, because they'll kill me if they think I'm pregnant. You know what I'm saying? Like it was a whole it was a whole thing. Yeah, I'm pretty sure he would have married a girl. Whatever. You know, but um, yeah, that scene in the chamber again. I hate to like kind of go into the you know, the more No, that's that's that's your bag. Um an emotional woman needs a man like that to steady her in those emotional moments. That was such a great dynamic where she's like, I don't have the stomach for it. And he's making her a ruler in that moment. He's like, No, don't let him die in vain. You still have to go and get the throne. I saw the vision from your father. Don't forget why we're even doing this. He wanted you to be on the on the throne and it comes through our bloodline. And then later on when they're actually fighting through the through the um the castle, I thought one of two things was gonna happen when the gold cloaks um showed up. I was like, either um they're gonna be loyal to Damon, because I do remember him, you know, putting together the Gold Cloaks, or either Karaxy's is gonna bust through one of these windows and start burning everybody. Okay. And I'm like, they're not gonna do that. So I kind of knew because, you know, again, like I remembered that he did put them together and he was their leader. So I kind of knew where that was going. But I do like the way they they they showed the rapport between Damon and him because he hugged it. He hugged him. And you don't see Damon Durrell. Exactly. And that's what I'm like, alright, so this is this is like brotherhood. Like I trained you up, I made you him, and you held it down while I was going. And he was like, nah, he gave me this gold cloak, so I'm loyal to him. We were waiting for you to come back. Um I gotta go back and look because it was a little bit weird that they had auto hightower there. I'm like, I'm pretty sure he sent him home.

SPEAKER_07

But they did say Laris is the reason why he's there. So maybe Laris intercepted that. Because I think Laris plays all sides. Because he said he's just he's about survival survival and feet. Yeah, so I know what? Survival and feet. That's what he's about. Yeah, you're right. I think um I think he was using him as a bargaining chip. Like he just had that in his back pocket. In case something happens. Yeah, I got I got somebody y'all hate more than me. Exactly.

SPEAKER_00

Y'all didn't really hate Mark, because they don't even know what he has done, honestly. Who, Laris? Yeah, they don't know his conniving. The only person who would be willing to kill Laris are Eamon or Aegon. If he if he were to roll on Aegon, Aegon's gonna get him killed. And Aemon finding out what he's been doing probably gonna be.

SPEAKER_07

I missed the gigantic part of the episode. Thank you for bringing that up though. Yeah, when they got intercepted. When they got intercepted, what do you think happens there?

SPEAKER_00

Um, I think Aegon gets to his goal and begins to regroup. I think that um Aegon is going to end up back on the throne at some point. Really? Yeah. Okay. I think that um you want me to tell my what I think is gonna happen? Yeah, absolutely. Give me some predictions. Uh I think Hugh is gonna roll on him. Why Hugh? Because he has the biggest dragon, his personality type, and the loss of his daughter, whether he knows about it. If he doesn't know about it, that's gonna be the the factor that you know kind of breaks him. But also Hugh is a semi-honorable man in terms of he has pride. The fact that he stood up to Vermitor and was like, Come on, shows you like that's his personality type. And again, that you gotta remember the the correlation between dragons and their writers. Yeah. Um Vermathor is mad, like he's the bronze fury, he don't really don't play like that. So Hugh must have something like that in him. Okay, or else they would never have signed the dra they wouldn't have they wouldn't have melded. You know what I'm saying? So you think Hugh joins up with Agar? I think Hugh's on his own. Like I'm trying to run this myself. Oh, he wants to be king. I think at some point, yeah. If he gets any, if he get if he gets a good amount of game tape where he's putting up 40 on a city, he's gonna be like, my dragon's the biggest. I think I could take caraxes. I think I can kill Damon while he's on Karaxis. I think that I can really run this. I'm also a Targaryen. We need to change how these people, like you said, the way they treat the common folk. Yeah, because he I'm a common folk, but I'm not a common folk.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I'm a Targaryen from the common folk, and I'd be a better king. I think that's where it goes, especially if he finds out his daughter, who is a common folk, dies. That can be the tri the trigger for him. I think that that swings the favor or takes away the power from the blacks that makes the greens kind of rise up a little bit, allowing the greens to come over while they have to kill Vermidor and you know Q and probably Silverwing too and all that. And um then it becomes a very even playing full field. But I think that the Greens end up in power and um the blacks kind of take a overall L. But I think that the whatever son that Damon and Renera have ends up on the throne at some point.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

I think that because um Eamon has sired no children and A Gon has a daughter, they might marry them together. Okay. And that's where the bloodline gets down to like Jon Snow, etc. But um, I think that's what happens.

SPEAKER_07

But um So you think Eamon loses to Damon? Yes. So then who kills Damon?

SPEAKER_00

I think um it's one of those things where he dies in the process of killing.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I I figured that's what I want to happen.

SPEAKER_00

I think that when you look at it, it's like the definitive winner of that. Yeah, I want him to be the winner. I'm I want him to be, I I believe he's gonna be the winner. I don't even want him to die. I want him to just like he is more seasoned, although Eamon does show like combat prowess. Oh no, he's not a slouch. Nah, he be he be beating up Kristen Cole, and Kristen Cole actually beat Dave Damon way back when. But that's Damon back then.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, and that was Damon at the tournament.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, it was a tournament. Damon don't really pull punches like that.

SPEAKER_07

No, I'm not saying he's punches, but like he's also like to fucking. Nah, he lost. He did lose. Smacked him up. He did, he absolutely lost, but you know. But also back.

SPEAKER_00

I'm a jump on that, too.

SPEAKER_07

That was in a fight to the death. Niggas could die in that. Yeah, niggas don't die in that.

SPEAKER_00

Someone died in that. Dunkineg. Gotta finish. Watching that. But um yeah, back to Heronhall real quick. You're right, there's a a a very stark difference, and that's where Eamon has a problem. He does not have the parlaying skills. You talk about Damon's people skills. Eigens Aegons, I mean Eamon's are completely non-existent.

SPEAKER_07

I think he's a sociopath.

SPEAKER_00

You walk in there and guys are eating like yo, you got it. You got it. Hey, listen, we I'm an old man. And you stab him while he's talking, slay his other son, and so arrogant that you don't even look back at the fact that there's someone behind you and he stabs you, and now you're in pain and you kill him. And you know, it's like, and then what I like that shows who Damon really is. The coward is who he is begging. That's who he really is. And his sister said it to him before. She was like, You're scared. Fear, it's gonna be your undoing.

SPEAKER_07

And that's when he put on the armor after he spoke to his sister. Exactly that nigga was not wearing armor ever. Ever. Exactly.

SPEAKER_00

And she said, Oh, you I know about you. And that's the interesting part because Damon isn't a coward. He's not gonna beg you, son. Like you said, he's not gonna beg. I'm about to get packed up right now. It is what it is. He went to fight the crab feeder by himself. He did, one-on-one. Everyone's like, One V1. He fucking got shot with someone.

SPEAKER_07

He walked out with half of that nigga.

SPEAKER_00

Like, yo. Damon is that's what I'm saying. He's gonna beat Eamon. Eamon is going to be going into that fight with a reasonable amount of fear of his uncle. Because he knows Eamon's strength. It all comes from it all comes from um Vagar. Which is interesting because I'm like, we talk about the parallel between the characters and that dragon. I'm like, why does he even have Vagar? And maybe it's because Vagar. Huh? He stole Vagar.

SPEAKER_07

That's supposed to be Rhaneera's Dragon.

SPEAKER_00

Vernera's? Yeah. Nah, Bela's. Nah, Bela had it. Her egg hatch. Bela already had Moondancer. Yeah, Raina, yeah. Raina can't handle sheep stealers. He can't handle no Vagar. Nah, but I think that um the reason why they actually connected is because of the pain affair that Aamon had and the pain of losing the mother.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Because the mom, the mom and reina had the same issue. She had to claim Vagar, the mom. That's not her dragon. She claimed Vagar.

SPEAKER_00

What do you mean it's not her dragon?

SPEAKER_07

Remember, Vagar is from the company. Oh, you're talking about with the egg thing. Yeah, so the that's not straight.

SPEAKER_00

That's not how it necessarily happens. You inherit people's dragons.

SPEAKER_07

No, of course, but I'm just saying, like, she she that's how her and Raina like kind of like because Raina's whole thing with that's his this Raina's character is that I don't I don't have a dragon, like everybody else has dragons.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

And the mom was like, no, you're gonna clean Vagar, like I did.

SPEAKER_00

Oh yeah, she set him up set her up for that.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, like no, that's that's all you. Bale already had a dragon. She already had a dragon. Yeah, Moon Moon has a crack. It came from the egg. Okay, okay. Yeah, she didn't inherit that's her, that's why her dragon's not fully grown. Because that's the thing, right? Apparently, every dragons obviously have a size. They all don't grow the same thing. Yeah, they all don't grow, because look look at Coraxes already. Like, why does he have a long neck? Like, he doesn't even No, I mean like in terms of like this many years old, it's supposed to be the same. No, no, no. No, but they all they do have a mature age.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

I don't think Moondancer and uh Verimax and Arimax, all those dragons, they're not at the mature age yet because their riders are also still children. Yeah, and it's funny because um in the book, I think the characters are a little some of them are older and some of them are younger because um in the book, the young uh the Renee's youngest kids, their dragons are hatched and they they ride them, like the youngest kids. So the two with Damon. Yeah, because um uh just a little book spoiler, you can you can fast forward. Um during the Battle of the Gullet, the real reason why Jace goes is because one of his little brothers is on that ship. So that's why he goes, and then the brother ends up escaping on his own dragon. Okay, and it's but it's a baby one, but yeah. So, yeah, you know, um Jace got packed up. I just want to remind everybody. That's that's he was doing a lot of talking. That's very hurtful for me. I like Jace. I liked him. He was gonna be a good king one day. He was never gonna be king. What do you mean he's he's he was never gonna be king with that hair?

SPEAKER_00

We know who he is.

SPEAKER_07

He's a strong king. We know who he is. Yeah, he's strong.

SPEAKER_00

He's not he was never gonna be king, he was never gonna be on that throne.

SPEAKER_07

So, what would have happened um when you know if if everything worked out and Ranera, you know, when she passes, he's next.

SPEAKER_00

Damon would have been like, listen.

SPEAKER_07

Nah, nigga. Damon was cured. His ego. Damon had an ego death. He took some mushrooms at hair and hall. He had a ego deal. She gave him heavy mushrooms too.

SPEAKER_00

His homeboy was like, my queen. I was like, I ain't never see, I ain't never thought I'd see this. Yeah, no, I like him better for it.

SPEAKER_07

I think it's a better look. I like I like this version of Damon. He's a soldier. Um he's the he's he'd be the perfect hand of the king. He's still a little wild, but I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, he's he's still Damon. Yeah, I see what you're saying. I could see he is a better version of himself, but he slapped a nigga with a dragon. He's still Damon. He will slap anybody. Yeah, that's what makes him Damon. The thing is, again, this is my whole thing with the dragons. You have a dragon, but if your dragon's not an earshot to help you, who are you? Like Ranera, it's cool that you have a dragon, but without your dragon, yeah. I'm not I'm not dude. I'm laughing at you if you pull a sword on. I'm not a dude. I I respect it. But um, uh, yeah, so the the parallels between Eamon and Damon are very, very clear, but at the same time, it's like you know, you can see where um Eamon is gonna fail. He's just he's a psychopathic, he's a he's your textbook Targaryen who's just out of line. He never had the proper political and tactical um tact tactful teaching that um Damon had from his father, as well as watching Jaheris. You know, so Eamon lacks that he's very ambitious and he's also freaky, and that's gonna mess him up too. He's right, uh, trying to kiss his mom. Also, the guy, I didn't like that the guy just went straight to trying to rape uh the queen because it was just like it was such it was so crassly done. Like you're not locking doors, you just oh, oh, you're trying to betray the city. I'm finna get something. It's just yeah, it was kind of out of character, it didn't make any sense. It just wasn't wise, you know what I'm saying? You know, I didn't like that, it didn't make sense. Um and then and and to be honest, overall for the episode, and I'm gonna land here, is just that they kind of rushed a few things again with the auto high tower. They need to flesh out why he's there, how he ended up there. Um, and there was a couple other things that progressed really fast. That's what it was. Alison was rushing to set this up for Ronero. Yeah, she's just running up telling people. Yeah, she should have been had this. Um, he's like, isn't that treason? She's like, depends on what you think is treason. It wasn't tactful at all. I'm like, what are you doing? You're just saying same thing goes with um Raina. Like you just run up, hey, I died, I smoked those ships. Please help me. Tactfulness. What's going on? It's either you guys are all slow or the writing is being rushed. And I think it's more about that. You know, you're trying to pack a lot into an episode. Whereas you could flesh it out a little bit, like, or even foreshadowing other things. Even when she ran up on the the guys who control the scorpions, it's just like, yo, when any dragon, don't shoot. Why are we doing that? Oh, well, I'm giving you an art order. Well, Eamon said that, well, I'm the queen. Well, either way, Eamon said, well, here's the other queen. Let's just it's it reeks of I'm doing something shady.

SPEAKER_07

Yada yada yada.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and the men are looking at you like, yo, what are you talking about right now? This is craziness. I I thought the pacing with that was kind of it could have been done better, but I'm not gonna knock the episode. Um, overall it was good, and lastly, that last scene where she walks in the blood and just walks up to the throne. I love that y'all conveyed it very clearly. It was beautiful. You see it, it it's a call back all the way to Game of Thrones, what it took for Daenerys to eventually get on the throne, the loss of life, uh the amount the amount of people had to die for you to get on this throne just shows you this entire show says like in order to get that power, it's gonna cost you everything. And she lost what two sons now. Um Auto Hightower's dead, finally. I didn't like that guy, but great actor. But um for me, if I was to rate it out of 30, I'm giving this episode. I'll give it a 20. It's good.

SPEAKER_07

29. 29 for you. I think this is better than episode one. Nah. I think this should have been um what makes it better to you? It was more Game of Thrones for me. It had because Game of Thrones to me, the the beauty in the Game of Thrones is the is really the the dialogue. It's not the fights. The fights are great, of course. We all love action, but it's like the political intrigue, the little like we I were joking about the Damon Slap thing, but I think that's going to matter a lot down the line. I think Oh, absolutely. Like the Damon spurning the the um the the witch. I think Damon talking Renera into the queenship. I think those things were just this is what I fell in love with when I started watching this this this show.

SPEAKER_00

This this rendition, or you're talking about Game of Thrones?

SPEAKER_07

No, Game of Thrones in general. So I like the political dialogue, the just the the scheming. Yeah, uh so to me, this was like right up there.

SPEAKER_00

This is why this is the this is the thing for me though, and I understand where you're coming from. But that love that Game of Thrones time has to be more schemy because there's no dragons. Yeah, yeah, of course. You know what I'm saying? It's like back then they were a little more raw because it's like, first of all, you're dealing with Targaryen who historically are used to this, yes, but they're more like, yo, listen, I told you to stop talking. Bow. Yeah. Like, imagine um what's this guy's name? Um Robert Stannis, his brother. Robert, uh Robert, yeah, yeah, Baratheon slapping uh somebody for talking too much. It's like, whoa, like I'll get you poisoned. You don't have a dragon that makes me say, let me chill. It's like kind of like what I said. I'm gonna wait, but I'm gonna get you for that. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Like it that's that's more the tone for that. And they they did a masterful job. But this is like if I have a nuclear weapon, like, yo, talk crazy for me, I will burn your house to the ground. Simple as that. But I get it. I still give it a 20. Maybe 21.

SPEAKER_07

29 for me. I get it. I think I think this this was one of them ones. Then when we look back at the whole series when all the spin-offs and everything is done, this is gonna be one of the marquee episodes. If I wanted to put somebody on to this specific rendition, like the House of Dragons, I would probably use this episode. I'm giving you the um um the one where um Mayle's dies.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, that's a great episode. That episode was that'll get you to watch the show like that. Yeah, that's a great episode. Speaking of which, this is all her fault that this is happening. She could have killed everyone that day.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, absolutely. She could have easily done. I don't know why. All right, um, let's leave Westeros and let's let's go. Oh, and Resteros stinks, just so you know. I told you, slap. He's gonna wonder what that smell in my hand was. I have your paper, so I just slap you with it. Yes, sir. All right, let's um, you know, let's get into some numbers. Um this movie I've been trying to get a GR to watch uh Obsession. It's a new horror flick, and it's actually doing so well. It's recently outpaced sinners in uh sales for live action um original horror. So to me, this is actually a testament to sinners. I know a lot of people are gonna look at it like, oh no, how can it be a testament to sinners if sinners got surpassed? Sinners had to fight the battle of white supremacy.

SPEAKER_04

Like a lot of white people hate that movie. Can we get into that real quick?

SPEAKER_00

Like Absolutely. White people, right, especially in this eight era, I'm not saying all obvious all if if the you know hit dog's gonna holler, but they just hate everything black. It's just annoying, especially when it gets any kind of credit. Now I'm never gonna sit here and tell you like Sinners is one of the top ten movies of all time. But for the year, what came out entertainment-wise, acting-wise, there's a lot of great acting like we've discussed before. It was a great film. And um, I think I think a lot of Caucasian and white people um don't like to see themselves depicted as the villain guys. Like you know why? It's because this is some of the stuff is historically active, um, accurate. Yes. And it calls us back to a time where you know there are sins that your people have portrayed or um perpetrated against our people. It's just like you have to either embrace it, but you fighting and also hating on it just adds to what the movie's talking about. You know, like they had their own jute jute joint, they bought it themselves, and you're like, nah, we finna come back and kill all you. Why, why? What do we do? We played the game correctly. Nah, I gotta smoke you. But you know what I'm saying? Like, it's just it's annoying at a certain point. It's like, why are you still mad? Yep. Like the new hashtag is leave black people alone. 100%. Could you just do that? That's it. Nah, that's not gonna happen. No.

SPEAKER_07

I do want to give Obsession as Flowers, though. That is a really good horror movie on a small budget. We haven't seen something like that since um paranormal activity. Paranormal activity. It's it's it's really good. I gotta see it. It's really watch it with a woman. I tell you right now. Why is it gay sexy? No.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_07

This is uh not to spoil the movie, but Obsession is a mirror, it holds up a mirror to women and how they act sometimes. Ooh, yeah, we're gonna watch something. Watch it with a woman. I bet. And they're gonna be like, I I act like that. Yes. Yeah. I I think obsession is really dope. It's a really dope flick. I don't I don't wanna um you're right. You you think someone's gonna take accountability and be like, yeah, that's how we act? No. Hey, that movie will get it done. All right. Alright, um, so we got a couple of trailers that came out recently. Yes. Um, a lot of dope actors headlining these movies, and I want to start with a man that um we haven't seen in a while. Mr. Majors.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I thought you were going with the other guy.

SPEAKER_07

No, no, no. Mr. Majors, he's in a movie called Run, Hide Fight, Colonel Infidels. And uh, I think it's the Daily Wire is behind this. I didn't know that Daily Wire can make movies.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know if that's the Daily Wire. Uh, is the same one I'm thinking it is. Uh, but I'll double check. I'm I'm listening, sorry.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, so basically what it looks like from the trailer is that this is gonna be a very um anti-Islam movie. Yeah. I don't know what Major's role is. I think he plays an um an ex like uh combat veteran or something like that. And I think I don't know what type of is it gonna maybe like political espionage? I really don't know what it is, but I'm gonna watch it. The trailer didn't give away a lot, which I enjoyed when trailers do. There's a lot of like uh clip uh clips from um actual news clips and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_01

What is that?

SPEAKER_07

All that stuff. You know what they do. Be careful. Why? It can be offensive. Offending a lot. I apologize. The fastest growing religion in the world. Why? Persuasive.

SPEAKER_04

Aggressive.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, they got this swag thing. I I ain't gonna lie. What? I said what I said. Okay. When when you when you um join the faith and call it uh faith. It's a faith. Is it? Stop. Don't do that. It's a belief system, it's a faith. Alright. They say that um you reverted. You reverted back. Yeah, we were all we were all Muslim. So you just left for a little while, you reverted. I think that's why. I think it's dope. Alright. It's a good message.

SPEAKER_04

I think I wish I thought of it first. Alright. It's dope. Can't you can't say that? I'm I didn't disagree with you guys. I don't think it's dope, but teachers on.

SPEAKER_00

I just think it's a little bit. I mean, if I was like Alright, I think it's gonna be a great movie. Don't that majors is in it, he's a phenomenal actor. I want to see what they do with it. It's by the Daily Wire, it's right winged, so obviously you know what they're gonna be trying to aim for, the propaganda they're going for. I think that's what I'm saying. I'm surprised he's in it. So I think he might be uh that nigga need a job.

SPEAKER_07

He might that's what it's sound like to me.

SPEAKER_00

Megan good putting pressure on him. Yeah. Are they still together? Yeah. Oh, they got married, that's right, yeah. They got married? I think they got married, yeah. She's like, we need some money around here. I'm doing these Tyler Perry films. What you doing? She's like, listen, I'll go right wing.

SPEAKER_07

Nah, she's on a she's on a show.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

She lost her husband over that show, too. Which one? Um Harlem? I think so. Didn't they end it? It's done. It's done? Yeah. She lost her husband over that show. I heard um she cheated on him. I don't know if that's true. I don't know either, but I think that's the the scuttle butt. If you wa if you watch that show, and he's he's a guy of faith.

SPEAKER_00

She was wild. I'm gonna step out on like a little sidebar, but like if you're a person of faith, you have to choose certain roles. Not certain roles, but the people you deal with pro like um carefully. Like you have to understand, like, yeah, I'm beautiful and I'm infatuated with her. But at the same time, if she you know she's gonna be into this, just do yourself a favor and say, you know what, nah. Alignment is more important than attraction. That's promise. That's tough. Alignment is everything. That's tough. What do you mean it's tough? Like you're saying it's tough in a good way, or you're saying it's tough as in this tough. Both. I'm telling you from experience, I know it's tough. But alignment is far more important than how attracted you are to this person.

SPEAKER_07

You had to let one of them go? Let one of them Yah Mingas go.

SPEAKER_00

You are doing it. I know you. Samson. You can pretend. Samson should have let Delilah go, but what did he do? He kept her around. He weren't alive. Shout out Samson. Shout out Samson. And Delilah got him, but I'm just being real. And the same thing goes for women. Like, this dude might not be alive.

SPEAKER_07

Yo, give me a good character in the Bible that's a woman that's not Jesus' mom, real fast. Uh Ruth? What she did.

SPEAKER_00

Esther? Ruth was um, she was Naomi's um uh daughter-in-law. She had lost her. You want to know about this for a little bit? I'm dead at it. What you have to know about Esther? Which one do you want to know about? Who whose lore is better? Esther's give me Esther. Alright. Um, Esther was a Hebrew woman, an Israelite, and uh the king. The king at the time had a wife named Queen Vashti. Queen Vashti, you know, was feeling herself. He said he because back then you'd summon your wife, like, because she's so beautiful to show her before the prince, like, oh look at my beautiful wife. Which actually still happens today in a in a fun kind of way. But anyway, she was like, nah, I'm good, I'm not coming. Vashti. Vashti, Queen Vashti. So the princes, which is like the council of the king, were like, yo, just so you know, you gotta nip this in the bud because the other women of the country are gonna see her example. She's the queen. And they're gonna know this guy, and they're gonna follow suit, which again. You gotta borrow today. When Michelle Obama says what she says about Obama, like it it trickles down. When you see certain celebrities do things, it trickles down, you know. So so he uh basically put her away as the queen, like you're no longer my wife, and started looking for a new wife. Wait, you can do that? Yeah, 100% as the king, yeah. Like, well, you're not my wife, no, you just and all these, like, outta here. Taking notes, and she can't get remarried after that. But um, that was all that was a that was a big L on her part. Like, the king is calling what was her reasoning. I guess she just was she was feeling herself. Spirit of Jezebel. Yeah, I guess it's possible, but anyway, um so then um he was looking for a wife, and Esther was presented before him as a young virgin, obviously. And uh she he was like a long you know, they choose a long line and you get to meet him, and she was beautiful and all that stuff, and her um she had an uncle named Mordecai. I think it was her uncle. That's a cool name. Mordecai is a very old man's name, but it's tough. Mordecai was like, you know, her pe their people, the Israelites, the Hebrews, were under, you know, that kingdom's uh rulership at the time, and they weren't treating them very well. Esther now becoming the wife of the king, the queen. Um he was like, she was like, Now I'm the queen, she's good, she's chilling, and she's having a good time. And Mordecai went and r like reminded her, like, listen, you need to be in the ear of the king about how we're being treated. We can't we're not allowed to worship Yahuwah the way the way we want to. They're trying to force us to worship their gods, and it was a guy named uh forgetting his name, but he was a descendant of an ancient people that the Hebrews had smoked because they were like an anti-god. Okay. And um, he was just hellbent on like you know, destroying the Hebrews because they had smoked his people at one point. And so he was in the air of the king, like anyone who's not worshipping you and not worshiping our gods needs to be dead, needs to be killed, yada yada. He was targeting Mordecai because Mordecai was like the leader of the people. So eventually, um Esther long story short, she did what she was supposed to do and got the king to like take care of his people, take care of her people. I thought I thought you were implying that she killed him. Nah. And um ended up Heyman, that was his name, Heyman. Um, and ended up getting Heyman killed for treason or for trying to like you know manipulate the king.

SPEAKER_07

It's always a nigga named Heyman. Pay attention, I guess.

SPEAKER_00

You know another Heyman? Nah, but if I did, I'll remember this story. Heyman was a hater for sure. Like you tried to get a whole group of people smoked. Anyway. Yeah, Esther's yeah, she's a she's up there.

SPEAKER_07

Shout out Esther and Mordecai. Alright, so we have another trailer which is um Your Mother, your mother. Featuring Marshalla Ali. Marshallah Ali. How you feel about it?

SPEAKER_00

Um he's a he's a like a he's he's like a a black um, I forget black. He's a assassin who struggled between faith, family. I Islam. What him in the film or him?

SPEAKER_07

In the film, I felt a little Islamic.

SPEAKER_00

Sure, we can go that far. We'll see what his faith is.

unknown

I'm out.

SPEAKER_00

Listen, we'll we'll talk about that. That's another that's another um podcast. But um I like what they're going for. I like to see Mahar Shah Ali act. He's a phenomenal actor, really greatly very talented. And also, let's also put respect on his name, Academy Award winner. Maharsha Ali. For what movie again? Moonlight? Moonlight, I believe it was. Never watched it. I mean Moonlight. Did you do your research? I did. It's up there with nigger. I told you. Hard ER. I was like, what? Yeah. Now I'm looking at Moondancer. Any Moon in Black. Moonlight. You gotta what was that Moonlight movie about? Uh I think it was a little uh homosexual boy who um who was having like he needed like he had like he was going through that whole like I don't even know how to legally describe it. It was a but there was something going on. I didn't I never watched it.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I couldn't watch it. I think I'm mature enough now to watch it. I just never had the desire to watch it.

SPEAKER_00

I was like, all right, well, this is a coming of age movie for homosexual. It really wasn't for. Me, so it was like he got he got it done. Yeah, no, apparently he did a great job, but I think they they make that movie big because of you know Moonlight kind of parallels the the intention behind Michael B. Jordan and uh Sinners.

SPEAKER_04

Talk to me.

SPEAKER_00

Meaning like we were trying to exalt this particular actor and we're also trying to push a message in the film that we're exalting him through.

SPEAKER_07

So for sinners, the actor is Michael B. Jordan, the message is turn away from God.

SPEAKER_00

It was very anti anti, you know, faith. Church. Yeah, yeah. Okay. And it empowered our people specifically to look at it like in a negative way. Shout out Sammy. Yeah, he he he held on to that guitar and still was playing it all the way to the end. He chose it. He chose that over the church. His father, remember, his father's like, don't go there tonight, something bad's gonna happen. Like, it was really His dad was right. His dad was right, but they showed like they flipped it. But they made his dad evil. They made his dad like the you know, they always they always put that on Christians too, like the Oh, you're so brainwashed by Christianity. But if you look at the film, for what it really is, like his father was right the whole time. At the end of the day, he was right. He was right. And in Moonlight, you know, they're pushing, you know, that particular lifestyle as like, you know, a sympathetic thing and all that. But I I listen, again, not my foretale.

SPEAKER_07

What I got from the trailer is it looks like we about to get our get back for that uh that movie about killing your dad. I forgot the name of it already. I never watched it. I'm gonna watch it though. I haven't watched it yet. Oh, I forgot the name of it. But I think your mother, your mother, that's the name, right? Your mother, your mother, your mother. I think the mom is gonna be evil. We'll see. Somebody's mom. I don't think so. Alright. I don't think so. You don't think Hollywood got the balls? No. Make a black woman the villain? Absolutely. Well, they can do that, but not in this context. Not in this context. It's not gonna be a black man killer. That's strong possibility. And then the last trailer that I saw from my guy, Robert Egers Eggers, however you pronounce this guy's name, he has a movie called Werewolf. He always misspells things for some reason. And GR and I are having a debate. He thinks it's about an actual werewolf. I don't think they're going that route. But knowing his rec uh his track record, he did The Witch, which was about witches. And yo, it had yo, that movie has the scariest depiction of the devil to me. What'd he look like? You didn't see him. So you heard him, saw his shoes. And he the power he had over the women in that movie was over the who? The women in that movie. It's terrifying. Watch that movie, The Witch. I never watched it twice. I couldn't watch it a second time. Why? It it it just You didn't like how your house fell after. It was too, yeah, it was too much going on. I was like, This guy was right. I watched that in the theater. Oh. I came home, I was like, You ran when you turned lights. Yeah, I didn't like it. I didn't like it. But the movie is phenomenal. And I didn't even know he was the director at the time. This guy said, Nah, but the movie. The movie was phenomenal. Phenomenal play. Um, yeah, then he did Nosferatu, which is I think the best vampire movie of all time now. Um, at least the best depiction of How'd he spell the witch?

SPEAKER_00

I think he put two V's. So he's spelling a lot of this stuff in old English, is really what it is. Like No Feratu, no Sorat Nosferatu. I think that's word is just what it is. It's an old English word. It's an old English word for like, you know, sucking life out of something. Anyway. Doing what? Sucking life out of something. Got it. And I'm just asking. I didn't say no. I'm just looking at it.

SPEAKER_07

You kind of breathed a little hard. And then werewolf, he's but he's spelling it. Like old English, yeah. W-E-E-R-E-R-W-L. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

I think it's gonna be about a um a nigga killing a wolf.

SPEAKER_00

I'm probably gonna be wrong. It's gonna be about the true depiction of what you know like lichenism looks like. Oh, you want you want the real that that's a word. Yes, you did, yeah. That means something historically. You're gonna educate us? Yeah, lichenism is a real thing. Like people would take on the mannerisms of a wild beast, specifically a wolf, and they'd grow wild hair. They'd have like sharper nails, sharper teeth. Now, is it supernatural? That's the question that a lot of you guys have to, you know, look up for yourself. Me personally, I believe it's supernatural. You know, the moon would come out and they'd lose their mind and turn into this ferocious beast. Sometimes, you know, in the daytime they go back to themselves. But I don't think you ever go back to yourself. I think uh the woman the movie Um Underworld. Underworld in general, but Underworld uh Rise of the Lichens gives you a good depiction. The original ones, when they get bit, they turn and they never turn back to humans. That's what I think more lichenism back then really was. Gotcha. On the whole back and forth thing is not real. But anyway. Cool, cool.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, I think um it's gonna be great. He did this weird thing, and I only pay attention to stuff because I'm an aspiring director. I want to work under this guy. Um he shot I want to work under this guy in a director capacity. That's not all the extra stuff yeah. But okay, go ahead. I'll do that. Um he shot the movie in black and white, and then I don't, I'm not gonna I don't want to butcher it, but then he put it in color, like put it on a color, I don't know, but it's he added the color after. Nah. He like put it on color film, some shit like that. Okay. He shot it in black and white, and the movie's not gonna be in black and white, give it a certain look, though. It has a crazy look, it's supposed to be. Yeah, so I'm trying to get into all of this. It started with the Ryan Cooler, and he had to watch the film at 70 millimeters and whatever. Yeah. And I I seen I went to the the AMC in the city just to watch it, and it made a big difference. Like when the shot with the um the cotton field, it took up the whole screen, and then the road is so small, it was just for that one scene alone. But it was mad other scenes that I could see the difference. Okay. Because I watched Cinners again at home and I was like, oh, okay, this doesn't look as vibrant. Right. Like in the field, like the TV that I have is expensive TV. So it wasn't the quality of the TV, it's just the way it was shot on TV versus in the gigantic screen. But yeah. So I'm definitely gonna check this out. Um, werewolves, um, they need a comeback.

SPEAKER_00

They just need a this is gonna be good for werewolves. Um, I'm I'm more of a werewolf guy than a vampire guy. They need a buff. They could have done it. Well, Underworld kind of killed them, that's the problem. They went too far. But yeah, they do need a buff. Yeah, they need something. A good series where the werewolves are the apex. Um the apex, not even not even that. Maybe the protagonist could be a werewolf who's struggling to learn how to control his powers. Getting his ass whooped? Struggling to learn how to control his powers.

SPEAKER_07

Nigga, what power? Turn into a giant wolf, eat shit. What are you talking about? Why would you want to control that?

SPEAKER_00

Actually, they tried to have a teen wolf, they just had a mobile graphic. I tried to get into it too. Why was he playing basketball? Who a teen wolf? Yeah, like the movie, you're talking about the show.

SPEAKER_07

He was playing basketball on the show too, right? I think so. Why why would you equate what about wolf's playing?

SPEAKER_00

He was playing lacrosse.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, what about okay? Maybe that makes a little bit more sense. Actually, no, don't football. What about wolf skills translates to basketball?

SPEAKER_00

Their leaping ability, their speed. Yeah, that was wild.

SPEAKER_07

Definitely complicated. Yeah, like come on, bro. It's not the sport I would choose. Nah, you're right. Maybe combat? Yeah, like slice people to death. Nah, you can't do that either. What sport would a werewolf do? Like, what sport would a werewolf do? Hunting. That's the greatest. That's not really a sport, my. Come on, gang. Golf is a sport?

SPEAKER_00

Not really. Okay. Alright, you're consistent there. I'll give you that. No offense to the golf followers, but it's like it's not. The reason we've talked about this. I define a sport as a sport. A sport is a competition where you can affect your opposition. If you can't affect them really, then this is like an activity. They're not gonna like that. They're not gonna like it. It is what it is. And I said what I said.

SPEAKER_07

They're gonna call us all kind of broke. Yeah, like it. Out of those movies, which one are you gonna see first?

SPEAKER_00

Um, I'd probably see Your Mother, Your Mother, Your Mother. First? The Daily Wire one second, and I probably will never watch Werewolf.

SPEAKER_07

Why not?

SPEAKER_00

I'll let you tell me about it.

SPEAKER_07

Nah, you gotta go watch Nosferatu, bro. If you watch Nosferatu. You talking about stuff is following you home.

SPEAKER_00

Nah, there was that one movie. It was the that movie was dark.

SPEAKER_07

Can I can I tell you how the witch movie is, bro? That shit starts off with the family getting kicked. It's like old, like, I think it's America, but it's like like colonial times. And the family gets kicked out, like whatever city they was at. So they're living in the woods by themselves. And there's a witch in the woods, like like that's kidnapping kids and killing. The witch is not even the gangster part. The devil shows up as a as a goat called Black Phillip. And it's just like affecting everything. It's like just like affecting them. And nobody knows like what's happening. One of the kids gets kidnapped by the actual witch.

SPEAKER_00

Canceling Gretel type, yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, and then eventually, you know who's in that movie? She's a beast right now, too, as an actress. Can't remember her name. It's Anna Taylor, I think it's Anna Taylor Joy. I think that's her name. Who's she in? She's in um the Viking movie with uh She's a beast, but she plays magic. She played Magic in one of the um the uh Marvel movies. Playing Magic? Yeah, the girl with the sword, X-Men. Big ass demonic witchcraft, her name is Magic. I think it's Anna Taylor Joy.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna look up.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, she's she's she's deleting it. Alright. Yeah, it's that movie's dark dog. I ain't gonna actually don't watch it. Yeah, I'm good on that. But it's a good movie, though. It's a it's a good movie. Anna Taylor Joho. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Alright, let me look this up. Alright. We're gonna go into Games Corner real fast. We haven't been into Games Corner in a minute. Um, this actually affects everything, but it starts with Sony. I think physical media is gone. Sony is officially ending physical game disc production for all new PlayStation titles starting in January 2028. Trash. So in 2028 onwards, you cannot buy a disc. This is 2026? Yes. Alright, we got some time. That's not a lot of time. It's not. Physical media is gone, bro. You know, you see what happened with um, I think it was Sony again. All the movies that they downloaded, right? That you just bought. Some, like let's say they were all Warner Brothers movie. Warner Brothers and Sony, they don't, they, the licensing is done. So all those movies that you bought that they claim you own forever is just in the cloud or on your console, can't play them. They lost the license. No refund. That's whack. Physical media is gonna be the new thing. I think we gotta bring that back. But what they're gonna do is they're just gonna stop making the players. Hey, remember the PlayStation 2 was such an easy thing to get your parents to buy because DVD players were more expensive than the PlayStation. Right. So you told your mom and dad, like, yo, it's a DVD player. Oh, we're using it, yeah. What what plays DVDs?

SPEAKER_00

Nothing. But you know why they're going towards like everything being digital? Yeah, because we won't want anything. Not even that. That's a part of it. But they can now edit it. Oh, yeah, that's a fact. And you hold me watch my old shows from the 90s. We took that joke out. I didn't know that Steve Urkel had a boyfriend in this. Yeah, they started to change things. That's rewriting history. That's the other timelines. They just changed stuff, like the whole uh Mandela effect. It's not really a Mandela effect, it's they just changed it. You think so? I just told you. Bernstein Bears? Nah, people are finding the stuff like no no for sure. There was definitely uh cornucopia in the Haynes. Yeah, that one I they're showing you, like, nah, they're trying to play with our heads.

SPEAKER_07

I've seen it.

SPEAKER_00

Exactly. It was there, bro. Exactly. The fruit weren't just bear. There was a brown thing, man. Right. And that's why the people who are like, it never was there. I've been looking at like they're they're showing me who the agents of this matrix are. You falling for this?

SPEAKER_07

Nah, yeah, that mandato shit is crazy.

SPEAKER_00

You got it. I remember recently I was having an argument with somebody back and forth about Brooklyn versus Queens, which you know, I'm obviously a Queens guy. And um, this guy, he's a little bit younger than me.

SPEAKER_04

Um well, most people are. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

You got what you wanted. Yo.

SPEAKER_07

He did it on a purpose. I saw you did it on a purpose. I saw you do it on purpose. How do you make it stop?

SPEAKER_00

It doesn't, it stops when it wants to. But um, so I was going back and forth about why um Queens is better than Brooklyn. I realized I was like, I sent I sent him a video of old Brooklyn. I think it was AI, but it was accurate because I my dad's from Brooklyn originally, and I used to be in Brooklyn all the time as a kid. I didn't know that by him. See, this is why podcast is dope. It is, and um, I was like, yo, this is what Brooklyn was. You don't even remember this. He's like, You're right, I don't. And I'm like, Yeah, he's implying that No, he just wasn't old to know it. So I'm just like, you know, what's funny is that you'll never know what it really was, but you'll sit here and tell me how you're where you're from is better than where I'm from. But this version of Brooklyn is where you have an actual argument.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

But you'll never know that, and you'll just run off of whatever you think you know. And that goes to show you, like, as they change things, it can go back and change things, people can just go off of what's been shown to them and with all confidence be like, nah, this is what it is. You know what I'm saying? And it's just not. Yeah. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Like, we we are in a time frame where erasing and changing things, even with games. Like, I alright, so Nintendo had Mario, right? That's their hallmark. Um, Sega had who is PlayStation's Hallmark character? It's either Crash Bandicoot or I would say What does he look like? What is he? Who's the other one? It's either those two, but I agree it's Crash Bandicoot, but the second one is tough. Could be um This is where like the age thing shows up in like although you want to make jokes, you gotta refer to me on this. Absolutely. Spiral. The dragon. Facts. You know what I mean? That's one of those two, but it's gonna be crash.

SPEAKER_07

It's because they haven't made a modern spiral game. Exactly. They've made it, it's a crash, there's a modern game. And that's how you know it's crash.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Um but spiral was that shit though. It was, it was a tough yeah, it was fun. You could play it for hours. Anyway, the point is Yeah, the dragons. The point is that they can change things. Like now, if you ask people what's the hallmark um PlayStation, they're gonna say GTA. Those those of us who came up playing on PlayStation 1 and 2, yo, nah, Crash Bandicoot. Hours, you had that little tiki mass following you. I remember that was that was the that was the joint. Yeah, just but anyway, I just I digress. The point is that um when they get rid of game, like physical games and physical media, they can now control how everything. Yeah. They can edit a game mid-game, you know what I mean. Yeah, that's nuts, man. Change everything you receive. So that's my take on that. But I think it's I I'm not I don't really like it. I like to have a physical game my own. Even when the server's down, I can still play Skyrim. When the server's down, I can still pop in whatever my favorite game is and play it. You know what I mean? You got a PS5 yet? No. You got a birthday coming. At the end of this year, yeah. But the point is, like this. That wasn't an old joke. Do they no, that's fine, but do they do they still have discs that go into PS5? Mm-hmm. Although they only have the regular, like the internet one.

SPEAKER_07

No.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Nah, but you still can't play most games. Even if you have the disc and the internet's down, you can't do it.

SPEAKER_00

Without the internet? Yeah, that's nah, I'm good. Like, what are you talking about? I can't play it at all. Yeah, nah.

SPEAKER_07

They gotta be always online. They tell you on the game, like, this is one of them games you have to have online.

SPEAKER_00

I I hope y'all gamers, like y'all heavy gamers, because I'm not a heavy gamer. No, I'm a heavy gamer. Like, I hope y'all hope y'all are alright.

SPEAKER_04

I'm good. If they ever cut the internet off on you, like, uh take this chip. I like books. You're a bibliophile? What you call them?

SPEAKER_00

A bibliophile. I'm a bibliophile. Okay, I don't know if I'm that. I'm a bibliophile. I love books. I like books. I built my own library, like I love reading them. I want to do that. Do it. Just pick, start buying books and collecting them, you know, read them, put them in them, put them on the wall.

SPEAKER_07

Alright. Bibliotheca. So you said right? I said bibliophile. That's a real word too. Betty. No, I know it is another one. Do you? Yes. Alright. I believe you. You don't have to get angry. I'm not angry at all. I got a dragon, remember? No, you don't. Damn it slap you just. What you gonna do? Kid about dragon. That slap was crazy. Yeah, he slapped the taste out of it. He felt his face for a minute. He was like, Yeah, he was like, what before in his life? Can't talk when the aristocrats is in the building, man. All right, let's go to anime corner. What I got for y'all this week is this anime. I think it's old. It looks old.

SPEAKER_00

It's called Terraformers. You gotta stop throwing that word around all willy-nilly. You're getting kind of crazy with it. You can call a show old. Like, you don't even know if it's old. It looks old.

SPEAKER_07

It look has like the 90s anime film. Maybe it has like a classic, you know.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, the art, the art looks old. Like, what would you compare it to? Like Ghibli Studios?

SPEAKER_07

Nah. I like Ghibli studios. Nah, but they take those are movies, so it takes a I don't think an anime can have that type of anime. Um, it's more like um old, like Dragon Ball Z, Yu Hawker show, that kind of art style. Yu-Hocka show. Yeah, it's like the darks are really dark. It's like strange. I like that. So um this is the premise. It's like it's like almost, I think maybe a hundred years or two hundred years in the future, I'm bad at math. And we sent genetically modified roaches to Mars to terraform the planet. They succeeded. So then we sent a crew to like scope things out. These roaches look at us like we're roaches. They're not so they're not small. They it's a little racist the way they look to me. They just look like brolic black dudes. But you know, you already know this it just comes into territory. They jack, they just jacked like humanoid roaches. No lot, like some of this racist though starting to become really funny to me. Nah, that's the best way to deal with it. This is what you think of us. If you scared, just say it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

So yeah. They've definitely upset it. Um, yeah, so they're just jacked like humanoid roaches, and they destroy the first team that comes to like see what's going on on Mars. So then the show kind of starts at the second team that's heading out there. And then they this time they prepare for the roaches. I I've I'm on like episode six. There's a live action movie, apparently. So I'm gonna finish the series and then I'm gonna watch a live action movie. Alright, I'll check it out. It's on Netflix. Um, no. Country Will. I don't use Country Roll. It's on Hulu. Where do you watch that? On Hulu. You have Hulu? Yes, I have Hulu. I thought you hated Hulu. I do. That's why. I do hate it. But that's the only place. What did you watch on Hulu? Um you watch Fire Force on there too? No, I did start Fire Force on there, but I was like, nah, Fire Force isn't on Hulu. It is. It is on Hulu. Oh, I'll just check it out. It definitely is on Hulu. Yes, it is. I started it on Hulu, funny enough.

SPEAKER_02

I'm about to check right now, son.

SPEAKER_07

And this is where you admit that you've been wrong about it. I'm gonna start calling you Captain Jack. Yeah, if you if it's on Hulu, you have to admit you were wrong about me. Wrong about you, shit. In what way? What you're trying to imply? Weird. Nah, that's a federal crime, nigga. I'm well aware. Better watch Fire Force. Hulu's on that list, I promise you. This guy is shaking his hands as moving on. Nah, I'm not aware of the stretching. Let me see. Let me see what we got. Mm-hmm. Hulu's right there. I know it is. I know I'm correct. Take it back. You're right. Thank you. Yeah, so uh uh Terraformers gets my stamp of approval. It's on Hulu, you said Terraformers, yes, it's on Hulu. I bet. It's on Hulu. I don't like Hulu because they split um, at least with Fire Force they did this. They like have the dubbed and the subbed in like two different places, and then sometimes it would start. It was just the I don't like Hulu's interface. Like it's really wonky. I don't like it at all. It has some shows I like, but I understand.

SPEAKER_00

It's not um, I told you swarm um in Atlanta. Oh yeah, Atlanta, yeah. I I think that's why I have Hulu. I also just sorry. I'm I'm probably gonna watch that show. Especially since it has a live-action movie, I'm probably gonna watch it. Um but I just wanna say, like, why did they just drop Atlanta like that? They didn't drop it. No, I mean like the show just started going downhill season after season. It got more ridiculous and hyperbolic and archy. And I think that's because all the actors were all like doing projects. Yeah, they got big and kind of killed it. Like instead of like, let's just go out on a good note, they were like, oh, we're gonna make the show trash. So people don't want to watch it. I liked it. I loved that show. I thought it was one of the best shows of this, like, you know, this uh era. I liked it. Especially season one.

SPEAKER_07

Season one was really good. And you know, anyway.

SPEAKER_00

But they I think they all just got too big because they all, I mean, Donald Glover was already big, but the rest of the Keith Stanfield, Paperboy, I don't know his name, um, and uh Zaza Beats are all.

SPEAKER_07

Paperboy's just got a big role in something. Yeah, he's he's doing well. He no, like I mean like a really big role in something. Can't remember what it is. Good actor. Excuse me. Oh, sorry.

SPEAKER_00

Brian Tyree Henry. He recently just got something. He's a good actor. He was just in a film with um, and I know this side I know they they're trying to exalt him because he was in a film with Brad Pitt, bro, on that train joint. I love that movie. That movie's good. I love she was in there too. Yes, I was a big yo, she was domino, and yo, they everyone in that film or in that show has gone. Like Keith Stanfield to me is the most talented one. He's in the Batman. The Batman? He's about to play Two Face.

SPEAKER_04

Say something.

SPEAKER_07

That's a blast. Black man, say something.

SPEAKER_04

They love this guy.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, the bad but this is Matt Reeves, Batman.

SPEAKER_00

So this is the I would rather Domingo play Tooth Face Tooth Face over him.

SPEAKER_07

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

This is a Domingo summer.

SPEAKER_07

Colin Domingo. Colin Domingo. Another Zest monster.

SPEAKER_00

What'd you call him? What'd you say? He's not a Zest monster. He absolutely is. He's not a Zest monster. He's just good at Ironman. That was a wild thing for me. I don't want to disparage black men, but um I'm just following the bigger. Paper boy is a zest monster, son. So is Colin Domingo. Great actor. Great actors, though. And the Zest Monster is not even about like sexual proclivity. This is about the manifestation of how you acted in public.

SPEAKER_07

I'm like, yeah, he be, yeah, you're right. Colin Domingo's out there. That's what I'm saying. He's not a Zest monster. You can be straight and be a Zest Monster. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, I mean O Dell Beckham.

SPEAKER_00

You're on to something. Back with the Giants. Let's go, Giants. Yeah. But there was times he was doing some Zest Monster activities. Yeah. Two Face, Harvey Dent. Alright, Alyssa, let's see what you got. He's a great actor. I'm not against it. I think he might be. I gotta see what they're doing. Who's in this is the Robert Patterson? Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_07

Matt Reeves, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

They just rebranded. This is what I mean. Like, you know, back to what we were talking about with the gaming and how they can just rebrand or just change the narrative. Kids coming up now are gonna think this is how Batman is. And when you show them the other stuff, they're like, this is whack. Like, it's toxically masculine. I don't like it. I hate that word. Because there's no such thing as toxic feminism. Yeah, what is what is what is why is it only a one-way toxicity here? There's clearly if there's toxic masculine, there's toxic feminine, but they don't balance it out. But you're 100% right. That's a hateful word to be honest. Uh anything anime quarterview? Um, no, not right now. I gotta get back to you guys on what I've been working on. I'm watching. Um, I'm watching Castlevania. It's really old, so I know you guys already saw this, but we'll talk about that another time.

SPEAKER_07

All right. Alright, so before we get out of here, uh GR, you had a um you had a request.

SPEAKER_00

I did, but I think I'm gonna change up on that. Work since we're talking about getting slapped and stuff like that, I want to actually ask you, based on I'm gonna ask you two ways because you already kind of touched on it, and we'll leave it here. Let's go back to Westeros real quick. How long do you think you would survive in original Game of Thrones? In original Game of Thrones, you do not have a dragon. And I'm gonna set it up. In original Game of Thrones, you are you are an ambitious first son of a noble house trying to climb his way up the ranks.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

You are associated, you're a black man, so I'm gonna say you're associated with the Kingdom of Dorne. Okay, I'm foreign.

SPEAKER_06

Alright, alright.

SPEAKER_00

Matter of fact, no, you're associated with the um the Tullies. Okay. How long do you think you would survive based on your personality and how you're moving and things you can handle? You are in the court, you are the Tully that they sent in the courts of Kingland King's Landing.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Around the time where uh Joffrey is now. Joffrey changes everything. How long do you think you're gonna survive? And tell me why you would or wouldn't survive, and at what point you would probably die.

SPEAKER_07

So I'm there. Yep. This is Ned Ned is there, or he's already dead. Ned is about to die. Oh, I'm I'm dead. Why?

SPEAKER_00

Because I'm just gonna speak up. So Ned is about to be beheaded.

SPEAKER_04

I'm gonna go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Oh, yeah, you're done.

SPEAKER_00

You're getting packed in the first for sure.

SPEAKER_07

Who is this nigga? I'm gonna I'm gonna point it at the king.

SPEAKER_00

Everybody's gonna be like, You're done. Are you serious? You would really do that. Like, I'm talking about you, a job. I'm the AG, you're really gonna do that. I'm I'm let me let me land. Go ahead, land.

SPEAKER_07

And then I'm gonna be like, Yeah, hey, you gonna land right next to your feet, but go ahead. The house of the tullies. Yeah. Oh, they you right, the fish. We don't respect this bastard. That's a fact. He's a bastard. They sent you to parlay, kind of like first. And Ned is an honorable man. Because this is this is the reason why he's in the situation he's in. Alright. I think if Ned had backup, like at least one other person to be with him. That was supposed to be his game. Yeah, but my man, my man wanted Ned's wife, so he was cool with letting him get packed. I think me and Ned, with the power of the Tully house, but my house is gonna be kind of tight, but they're gonna respect it because this is the north. This is a big kingdom. Ned. Okay, yeah, yeah. Yeah, y'all, you guys are related. Y'all are married. Yeah, so I'm I had I'm back, I'm backing up Ned. And I think if he had one other great house to at least back him up, because Robert is dead, and a lot of people didn't like the fact that Robert died, and it's like an open secret that why these kids all blonde, I feel like And they the Baratheans are strong. I don't think I survive. I think I'm a martyr. I think I think Jamie like tries to discipline me. I kind of dodge it. I'm like, I seen Amy uh fight. I mean, I seen Damon fight. I I saw that move coming. Like, what is that? I eventually succumb to like getting jumped. And but I think Ned makes it out alive though. And then he goes back to the north, and then the Tullies in the north. We we all gang up. You think you can help Ned survive? Yeah, I get him out of the city at least.

SPEAKER_00

Like uh before he ends up.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

So you think you're you're gonna survive season one?

SPEAKER_07

I'm whatever you need me to be. What's that? She walks up to you. How close it puts her hand down.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_07

Yeah. The only difference I'm gonna make is I don't know how this plays out, but the minute Damon is gone, the minute he's gone. I think I think I know where you're going with this. I'm gonna be king.

SPEAKER_01

Oh you're out of there.

SPEAKER_07

I'm flying my dragon. You talk about he dies? I don't know what happens to Damon, but the minute Damon is gone. I'm flying my dragon to King's Landing. Uh-huh. Whoever's on that throne, I'm charring them. I don't care who it is, I'm charring them. Eamon's on the throne. Charring him. Vagar's outside. No, but you see the thing is? The thing is, Vagar is gonna be sleep. I'm going like beeline. Like, they're gonna shoot their scorpions. I'm gonna it's gonna be such a like an out-of-nowhere attack. Remember when Melee's had all of them? Yeah. And she could have roasted them. I'm doing that. I'm just flying straight there, roasting whoever's there. Now his dragon's dragging uh no rider. Vagar's actually up for grabs.

unknown

Alright.

SPEAKER_07

Then I'm flying back to my brother. They're also alive, right? Yeah. Flying back to my brother, and I'm talking to um Coralus. I'm like, yo, I just did something crazy, dog. So crazy.

SPEAKER_00

Well, my pops is the king. So Damon dies another way. You're not the one who packs up Damon. No, I would never. I just think that you're assuming you're gonna run up on Eamon easily. He's gonna be chilling in the thing. You know, Eamon is not, he's not like the thing. You might go to the castle and he might be in the brothel.

SPEAKER_07

Oh no, if he's not, if I fly there, yeah, and nobody's there, I just apologize. Yo, I I couldn't control my dragon, so sorry. I crashed and I leave. They're gonna be like, you on the other team. Yeah, I already left. I left already, though. That's how you got it, bro.

SPEAKER_00

I'm letting you know. That's the moment you pass. That's right. It's a coin flip. It is a coin flip. If he's not there, if he's in the brothel, then I'm packed. That's fair. It's over for you. That's fair. All right. All right. I just wanted to see where you was at. I like I like uh that you're you know your limits in the first one for sure.
