Twins: Double the Trouble, Half the DNA

In this episode of Entertain This!, we’re diving back into the 1988 high-concept comedy that defined the "unlikely pair" trope for a generation: Twins.

We break down the absolute genius of casting the world’s most muscular action star alongside the king of chaotic comedy—and why, against all laws of nature (and logic), it works perfectly. From the questionable science behind the "perfect human" experiment to the surprisingly wholesome brotherhood that emerges between Julius and Vincent, we’re dissecting it all.

Grab your favorite neon windbreaker and join us as we celebrate the most mismatched brothers in Hollywood history.

What other 80s odd-couple pairing deserves an episode breakdown?

SPEAKER_03 0:15

On tonight's episode. This is the podcast. Mitch's Parents Room.

SPEAKER_01 0:26

Hello, and welcome to Entertain This. I'm Mitch. With me, I have. It's just Mitch Byson. Well, hello, hello, hello, hello.

SPEAKER_03 0:37

To be honest, you probably could just do the show without me and Aiden. And we'd probably be equally successful. No, I don't. We contribute very little.

SPEAKER_01 0:46

No, no, I I will give it to you. You two are funnier than I am. I just gotta go along with it.

SPEAKER_03 0:52

For those of you who don't know, Mitch is the heart, soul, and financier of this show. Against my will. Against the will. We don't know how this happened. Hayden claims he will give you money. I don't know if he ever has. He has sometimes. Sometimes. And I know I tell you, like, if you need it, tell me. Yeah. And I will give it to you. And I feel like I've honored those moments. You do, you do.

SPEAKER_01 1:16

I I spend a lot of money on different things that I don't normally don't just don't tell you all about. Good. But tonight, tonight, on Entertain This.

SPEAKER_03 1:28

We're talking about a movie. But first, Tom, social media. Huh. Well, you can't go to entertainthispodcast.com because Mitch stopped paying for it, so it's gone.

SPEAKER_01 1:37

Yeah, because it didn't really do anything.

SPEAKER_03 1:40

The other stuff couldn't. True. So you can find us on we're still on Facebook. Yeah. Entertain this podcast group. Yeah. You can also check us out on X at entertain this underscore. We're on Instagram, same handle. And we're making a little bit of a resurgence comeback on YouTube at EntertainThis 59. Yeah, because they wouldn't let me do an underscore. Which is stupid. All I can do is a number. Because Mitch started doing a lot of reels and uh and stuff and putting stuff out there and good content. I mean it's great, and it's definitely helping our little show here. And a lot of it's it's us, you know, some of our more comedic moments, which there are a plenty. If you've been a longtime listener, you know. If you're new, check out some of our earlier stuff. Don't go back like to the very beginning, though.

unknown 2:31

I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 2:31

There's a pretty good stuff. That's when we reviewed samurai cops.

SPEAKER_03 2:34

There are we have some gems in there that we did. Yeah, it was when we were finding our way in the podcasting world and what we wanted to do and how we wanted to do it. We still don't know. I will say we really are still winging it.

SPEAKER_01 2:48

I will say that on YouTube alone, we've we have 18,000 more views than normal. Uh 82 uh point eight more uh 82 more point eight more watch hours than normal, and 500% more subscribers than normal. We are we're lost to the races, we're we're going to the moon. Let's see, we've had 17.5,000 downloads in the last two weeks. So we're working up, we're moving up on YouTube.

SPEAKER_00 3:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 3:19

17 or not not downloads, but views. 17,000 views. Yeah, 17.5 in the last two weeks. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:26

Damn. Look at us. Yeah, yeah. We've had 8.4,000 engaged views, 294 likes, and more subscribers.

unknown 3:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:36

But today, on Entertainment, we're talking about a movie. And as you can tell from the uh the intro that Tom so elegantly disguises his voice as Arnold.

SPEAKER_03 3:47

It's about I didn't even do an Arnold impression yet.

SPEAKER_01 3:50

Well, uh because you don't understand that we have the intro and the outro that I had you record the other day. It plays it plays before every plays before and after every episode until I turned it off. You didn't tell me that. Yeah, it does. Oh god. I apologize. I'm sorry. That plays before everyone. So since I've heard your your Arnold impersonation, what was really more impressive is I read each one in one take. That was impressive, yes.

SPEAKER_03 4:15

While Mitch was just standing in my bonus room above my garage, like cheering, laughing silently, like giggling silently, like throwing his hands up, like as I just kept hitting it. And she's like, damn, dear, damn, damn, got it. It's like get out of here.

SPEAKER_01 4:28

Well, he does a good job. He doesn't think he does, but I think he does a pretty good Arnold impersonation.

SPEAKER_03 4:34

So thank you. I'm sorry, thank you. That wasn't that good.

SPEAKER_01 4:39

But today we're gonna be uh going over the movie Twins, which I had actually never seen before I started this movie.

SPEAKER_03 4:45

I have not seen this movie. Um full disclaimer, Mitch is gonna spearhead this podcast. So for the for those of you who are Mitch fans, you know, if you're a team Mitch that just turned it off, you're probably like, oh god. But on the flip side of that coin, I'm still in the room and I still have a microphone, and on the the narrow edge of the coin, Hayden's not here. I was gonna say on the on the plus side, you could say the plus. Some people are like, oh, cool, Hayden's not there. Other people are probably like, oh, Hayden Brandon's not there. But the majority, you know. And I wish Hayden was here. Because he's like our Danny DeVito. Our little buddy. He's our little buddy.

SPEAKER_01 5:32

Because me and you dwarf Hayden. When we sit down, he does look a little shorter, doesn't he? Yeah. Like he's not as tall as us, but when we sit, for some reason he looks like he slouches more or what. It's more prevalent.

SPEAKER_03 5:44

It's a little bit more prevalent. I mean, it for those of you who have not seen Hayden Brandon alive in the flesh, he is not a short person. Me and Mitch are exceptionally taller. We are of above average height. We are over six feet tall.

SPEAKER_01 6:00

Well, as we as I was saying though, we we uh we're gonna be doing the movie Twins, which I like I said before, I've never seen this until I watched it to review. Um and I'll have to say I I did like it. I thought it was kind of funny. I mean, it's not something I would go back and watch all the time, but no, it was pretty good.

SPEAKER_03 6:17

I think these are one of some of these Arnold movies, because we've been doing this like Summer of Arnold or Spring of Arnold into summer, whatever whatever you want to call it. Um, Arnold Stravaganza. Arnold Schwarzenegger. It was the summer of Schwarzenegger. The first day of summer hasn't even happened yet. But close enough. Some of these movies, I mean, there's certain Arnold films that are timeless. I will watch any time it is on. Like Terminator. Terminator two predator, predator predator all day, every day. If Predator's on, we're watching Predator. Yeah, if it bleeds, we can kill it. Like, I am locked in. Dylan, you son of a like I am all about some Arnold. Yeah. And the reels because of the the upcoming Odyssey movie with uh Ellen Page. Oh yeah. They should they did one, but it's her as Arnold in front, and she's like grabbing like his arm. It's just this skinny twig nonsense. It's very funny. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 7:18

They've done a couple of those. There's one where she's dressed as Jean-Claude Van Damme from Blood Sport.

SPEAKER_03 7:22

Oh god.

SPEAKER_01 7:24

Yeah, there's there's a lot of those now.

SPEAKER_03 7:27

The one of her is Achilles in Troy, and she's like running at the Jack Bald guy Belagrius, and the spear actually hits her.

SPEAKER_02 7:33

She's like half her feet.

SPEAKER_03 7:34

She's like, that very funny. But speaking of the physically imposing, we're gonna talk about another movie. Would you like me to give some facts?

SPEAKER_01 7:43

Well, let me go over this first, real quick. The is the director was Ivan Reitman, uh, writer was William Davies, and this is three others. I'm not gonna read them.

SPEAKER_03 7:52

Timothy Harris and Herschel Wingrott, the same guys who did um Kindergarten Cop. Oh, okay, which we have reviewed. Maybe. Depends on which one comes out first. You should probably put this one out first because this movie is chronologically before Kindergarten Cop.

SPEAKER_01 8:05

Oh, yeah, you're right.

SPEAKER_03 8:07

He's 1988, Kinder Cobb's 90.

SPEAKER_01 8:08

But uh see, you've got Arnold Schwarzenegger as Julius Benedict, Danny DeVito as Vincent Benedict, then you had Kelly Preston, Chloe Webb, Bonnie Bartlett, which Bonnie Bartlett is secretly one of my more favorite actors of the era. She's in uh Boy Meets World as Mr. Feeney's wife eventually at the end, and she's his actual wife in real life. Oh, yeah, she is.

SPEAKER_03 8:33

Married since 1951.

SPEAKER_01 8:36

Yeah. Wow. And they're st they're both still alive, and they they'll be on the uh Pod Meets World episode or podcast every now and then with Tapanga, Eric, and uh Sean when they do they they they've been going over all the episodes of Boy Meets World. He's on there every now and then just talking with them and stuff. It's kind of cool.

SPEAKER_03 8:53

That's nice, that's heartwarming nice.

SPEAKER_01 8:55

Yeah, it's gonna it's gonna be a sad day. We need more of that. Because he's he's almost 99. Yeah, because he's almost 100, yeah. William Daniels.

SPEAKER_03 9:03

Mr. Matthews.

SPEAKER_01 9:05

But uh let's see. Then you had Marshall Bell, Trey Wilson, and David Corso. That's pretty much all the main people. Um looks like the the movie Where is it? I lost it. Oh, there it is. The movie, the budget was 15 million. Uh it grossed in the US 111 million, and worldwide 216 million, so it did pretty well. I would say.

SPEAKER_03 9:31

Yeah, I mean $18 million budget, and you make two point you make $216 million. You you did pretty good. You did this is 1988. It's a lot of money. That's 80s money.

SPEAKER_01 9:43

But I I like this movie better than some of his other like I like we watched uh we talked about kindergarten cop. And while I like that movie, I like this one a little bit better because he gets to play off of Danny DeVito's comedy as well. So it just it makes for for a little more comedy, a little more humor in it.

SPEAKER_03 9:59

And this is this is his first comedy movie.

SPEAKER_01 10:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 10:03

Like everybody's like, what are you doing? It's like you're like a big action star. Well, and he wanted to do this, he didn't get paid for this. Yeah, well, I was saying he wanted to do this because he wanted to prove that he could do it. Because everybody's probably like, you can't do a comedy. And he's like, watch me. I'm gonna do it right now. I'm gonna do a movie. There's also a little tidbit. Uh Dane DeVito got him high during production of this movie. I did not know that. Because Arnold digging the cigars, and Dan was like, Oh, I got cigars, and he's like, He's like, Here, and he's like, and Arnold's like, he's making, he's getting the cigars, and he's like, I'm smoking the cigar, and it's very nice, and I feel really great. It's like, wow, this is awesome. And then we go to do the movie, and you know, I can't remember any of my lines. And he the end of the cigar he took out and he put weed.

SPEAKER_01 10:55

It's a Cuban cigar.

SPEAKER_03 10:57

Because like they would go to like Danny Vito's trailer because he was like always making like Italian food or something, they'd be hanging out. But like Danny Vito, he took a cigar, just like popped all the tobacco out of the front, packed it with marijuana, and got Arnold Schwarzenegger, high weed. It's like Arnold's stoned, and he's just like, what's my like? He's like, I don't know. Hasta the vista, baby.

SPEAKER_01 11:17

Wrong movie, wrong decade. Well, at the very beginning of this movie, it sounds like it's gonna be a whole different movie than what it is. When you read the plot. Because starting out, a secret genetic experiment attempts to produce the perfect child by combining the DNA of several distinguished individuals. The embryo unexpectedly split, resulting in twins, Julius and Vincent Vincent Benedict. Their mother, Mary Ann Benedict, is told that Julius died at birth and is never informed of Vincent's existence. The boys are raised separately, each unaware of the other. Julius is taken to a remote island and raised by one of the scientists. He grows into an oper uh an optimistic, physically imposing, highly educated man, though he remains naive about the outside world. Vincent, meanwhile, is abandoned at a Los Angeles orphanage and grows up alone, becoming a short, balding, cynical, small-time criminal.

SPEAKER_03 12:07

See, if this was all of us, me and you would be Vincent. Hayden get to be Julius.

SPEAKER_01 12:12

Yeah, that's how it would work out.

SPEAKER_03 12:13

That was how it would work out.

SPEAKER_01 12:14

And he's like, it's just because I'm better. But I I like how he grows up on this one island. Like, when he goes to leave the island, he has to get in a rowboat. Like they have no way, they have no planes, no boats to go to this island. He's lived there in solitude, and he's just gonna leave. But which what's weird is like basically he's he's gone there, and as he's grown up, he's just been an experiment his whole life, and he's just okay with it.

SPEAKER_03 12:40

And he's just he's like kind of grown up like a god on Olympus. Yeah, like he's just strutting around. It's just like I'm Arnold, like I'm huge. It's like they put him in like a weightlifting program. I mean, yeah, he basically he I guess he eats perfect he could just go be Batman. Yeah, like he's probably been getting like the pinnacle of human education, physical fitness, dietitians, well mean, exercise.

SPEAKER_01 13:03

At one point in the movie, there's this guy picking on Danny DeVito, and then he basically just like yeets him across the room into an elevator.

SPEAKER_03 13:11

Yeah, he's like, Oh, I forgot. I'm sorry, I'm strong.

SPEAKER_01 13:14

So he probably could be bad man. He said, you know, because he's got he's got all the money he needs.

SPEAKER_03 13:20

Javi tent.

SPEAKER_01 13:22

Can we trust him? But um, yeah, Danny DeVito, he's he he's like a small town crook, and somehow he's like a ladies' man because in the very beginning of the movie, he's in bed with this woman. Probably a hooker. Well, no, because then the the uh lady's husband comes home, so he jumps out the window and crawls down like the uh the garden thing on the from the second floor, throws the jacket around his uh over his shoulder. He's walking down the uh the road, some girl walks by and he's like, Hey, uh, and she she smiles back at him. Confidence. This guy's like four foot tall. Confidence. And then but then he goes and like meets his like I guess his ex in the uh I can't remember if it's a sister or a friend of the ex, just like hates him.

SPEAKER_03 14:06

Oh yeah, she's just like not having any of his but she loves Arnold. Well, yeah. But I mean Dan DeVito plays such a great crook. What like he plays a sleazy bub so great, yeah. Like it's it's like it's effortless for him to do it because he's like a sleaze bag in taxi. The TV show he was on the 70s. Well, even in uh what Sunny in Philadelphia's always thought he's yeah, he's like he's a menace. That's like off the rails, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 14:34

Danny DeVito sleaze bag, and then he's the penguin, and he's like, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 14:39

That's not really sleazy, that's just kind of creepy and like it's Tim Burton. Yeah, it's just it's like nightmare, yeah. Fuel nonsense because they're gonna like kidnap and kill children or something because he got abandoned and then but him and uh it's like the same person in Matilda, yeah, because he's the dad. Yeah, just like a creep of a dad, yeah. And he's like, look at the hospital bill, like just dragging the cart with the good with his daughter in it. He's just like, I'm not paying it. And he just throws her in the back of the station wagon. He's driving like all crazy, she's just sliding around, and she's just like but it's like it's so believable he's that way when he does it.

SPEAKER_01 15:14

Yeah, it's he's he's good at it, he's great at it. He is he is the king of it. Well, I did write down like they're talking about he the he was the genetic experiment of six male specimens. These are they're like a bunch of old, frail-looking men, like that, like one of them looks like he was in shape when he was younger, but they all look old in the pictures, like as they're as if they're like getting the genetic genetic, I guess, DNA from them all. It's like, how are these like the top specimens you could find at the time?

SPEAKER_03 15:41

Like these were the guys.

SPEAKER_01 15:43

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 15:43

Unless it's like they found him like older. Well, kind of they knew like in their youth, like they were like, you know.

SPEAKER_01 15:48

Well, like the one guy that he actually meets later on in the movie, he supposedly he was like an ex-football NFL football player or pro football player or something like that. And but even then, like he's they're all like gray-haired, old, older guys. So it's like, how are these the top specimens? Because at one point they show them like jogging and stuff, and none of them are like super muscular or anything. It just doesn't really fit when you say genetic specimens.

SPEAKER_03 16:13

Well, I mean, I don't think they list out their criteria of finding these men.

SPEAKER_01 16:19

True, true. But then, like, I when he uh gets ready to leave the island because he finds out that he has a brother.

SPEAKER_03 16:26

He's like, I have a brother, and he's like dives in like this rowboat, and like, where's this island?

SPEAKER_01 16:31

But he's just rowing himself because he's all this is like a scientifically advanced island that has all this stuff he could ever need, and the only way to leave is a rowboat. Why would they not have some kind of motorized vehicle to how it doesn't get to be remote if you have fancy boats?

SPEAKER_03 16:49

But then you can leave.

SPEAKER_00 16:50

What if what if there's an emergency? You got the rowboat? There's nothing else around, it's a rowboat. You got the rowboat and the Greek god who could paddle forever.

SPEAKER_01 17:00

I just think I find it funny. I'll find it funny in this movie. He's in a rowboat and then in commando he leaves the plane and just to row to shore. I know. Where did he get the boat in commando?

SPEAKER_03 17:11

Yeah, in his boat pocket.

SPEAKER_01 17:13

Oh, wait, yeah, it was a uh in a raft. I forgot.

SPEAKER_03 17:15

Yeah, yeah, like a like a zodiac without like a motor.

SPEAKER_01 17:20

Um, let's see. Oh, I was gonna look it up when he uh he get well I'll have to fix that part. Anyways, on Julius' 35th birthday, he learns of Vincent's existence and travels to Los Angeles to find him. He locates Vincent in jail and bails him out, though Vincent is skeptical of Julius' claim that they are twins, given their obvious physical differences. After Julius protects him from the Lone Sharks, Vincent begins to accept him. Vincent introduces Julius to his girlfriend, Linda Mason, and her sister Marnie. While Linda reluctantly tolerates Vincent's lifestyle, Marnie dislikes his selfish treatment of her. Julius, inexperienced with women, fails to notice Marnie's attraction to him. I like how when Vincent first gets, or not Vincent, when Julius first gets to uh the mainland, there's there's one instance he walks past a Rambo poster, looks at it, goes, flexes his muscle, and just goes, ha! And keeps on walking. I love that.

SPEAKER_03 18:20

I love that so much. I love that they did that.

SPEAKER_01 18:22

Just to mess with uh Sylvester Sloan.

SPEAKER_03 18:25

Because I mean, sidebar. They had a big rivalry in the 80s. And like because there was moves like Arnold would put out like fake information, yeah. Like that he was gonna do a movie, and like Stallone would like they'd look for like a similar film, and Arnold wasn't even gonna do the movie. Like it was they were making up films like that which just sounded terrible that Arnold was gonna go do. That's how like uh Stallone ended up with like you know, my mother, like his mom getting him a gun or something, like whatever that movie is.

SPEAKER_01 18:56

Oh um, you know what I'm talking about. I don't know I know what you're talking about, I can't remember the name of the title, but like he was doing that crap to him, like relentlessly. Well, yeah, because he would find like a bad script that he didn't want to be a part of and then tell Stallone I thought I'm I thought about going out for this, but you know, I'll let you look at it too, or something like that.

SPEAKER_03 19:13

And so they're like Arnold's gonna do it. He's like, No, I'm gonna do it. Tell him I'll do it. And he won. Yeah, Arnold was mopping the floor with him.

SPEAKER_01 19:21

Well, like, because uh even Hayden said, I had seen this before, but Hayden said the uh thing he messed with the the guy at the big show from wrestling, where the big show was in jingle all the way with him as the one of the the Santa's that he had to fight in the warehouse. Oh well, for like I think he uh they in the clip he says like for 12 years, every time uh the big show would come and like see him at he would come to wrestling or something like that, or he would be at like a Mr. Olympia like presentation or something. He would say, Hey, you know, Arnold would go, Oh uh Arnold Schwarzenegger, nice to meet you, and he's like, No, I I met you before. He's like, Oh, okay. And they'd you know, go part ways. He'd see him again, he'd go, Oh, Arnold Schwarzenegger, nice to meet you. And then finally, like after like 12 years, he goes up to present an award for like some at some WWE uh like I guess celebration or something, and he goes, Here, my friend Paul Wright, you know, which is the big show's real name. He's like, We we were in this movie together, we we've known each other. And then when he uh he goes up on stage to shake his hand, he Arnold just winks at him and goes, He's been ribbing me for 12 years. I hate that guy.

SPEAKER_03 20:24

That's hilarious. Arnold has a great humor. Yeah. Arnold is hilarious. Well, like, because he he uh if I was gonna if you had to be forced to hang out with one of them for a day, the pick is Arnold.

SPEAKER_01 20:35

Well, because there remember Chris Pratt, there was one where he was talking, he's like, That's his his father-in-law. He said that you know Arnold when they're having uh his first kid, Arnold offered him a cigar. Chris Pratt's like, I gotta ask my I don't smoke, but when Arnold Schwarzenegger offers you a cigar, you take it.

SPEAKER_02 20:51

You do it.

SPEAKER_01 20:51

It's like I woke up the next morning with a lung infection, but I felt, oh, I wasn't gonna smoke that cigar. He's like, Oh, where's my inhaler? Uh I would have to believe Arnold had to have known that.

SPEAKER_03 21:04

If he was probably just like, just to see if he'd do it.

SPEAKER_01 21:06

See, yeah, see if he'll take questions.

SPEAKER_03 21:10

Dude, you'll protect my daughter.

SPEAKER_01 21:13

The daughter of Arnold. But yeah, I mean, the uh there's a bunch of stuff in this movie that there was kind of like little jabs, it felt like. But um, let's see, you had the was it, he's I forgot he's like after after that part, he's walking, he's standing in front of something. I don't care if it's the storefront, has like a TV or something playing. But this guy comes walking out and it's like, hey, uh, I need like five bucks or something like that. And as he's like opens up his wallet, this guy comes by on a motorcycle, which they're kind of working together as crooks. This guy goes by on the motorcycle, grabs the briefcase Arnold's holding, and just gets yanked off the thing. And Arnold acts like he didn't even try. He's like, Oh my god, are you okay?

SPEAKER_03 21:51

And then he was it he put up the guy's like he's like beating them up like unintentionally.

SPEAKER_01 21:56

Yeah, and they're like, get away from us. The pavement was his enemy. The pavement.

SPEAKER_03 22:04

It's Arnold does it so well. You can't even explain it. It's just he shouldn't be able to. He really shouldn't. But the dude can just do whatever he wants. Yeah. And it works every time. Well, and then except banging his maid. Yeah. I mean, it worked. I mean, he he he reproduced.

SPEAKER_01 22:27

But well, like when he goes to save Vincent because the uh the bad guy like comes after him as like a loan shark or whatever, he grabs him on the shoulder. It's like the Vulcan death punch or pinch. He just grabs him and the guy's like, ah, falls to the ground. And he like yeets him across the thing. But then he uh he meets him in the uh when he goes to bell him out and he's he's talking and talking through the glass to Vincent, and then Vincent's like, oh yeah, yeah. Grabs the phone, pick up the phone. Oh, sorry, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 22:56

Does he break the glass?

SPEAKER_01 22:58

No. He he uh he talks to him and stuff, but at this point he he just figures out and he goes and pays and gets him out. But that's when he uh they go to the uh Vincent's car, finds out that that's it. Vincent gets in, and then Arnold goes to the door's locked and he goes to pull on it, and and then Vincent just backs out, leaves, and takes off and leaves him, and that's he finds him at his uh his business where the lone shark finds him, and that's when he does like the pinch.

SPEAKER_03 23:23

And it's like this guy might be useful to just have around now in my life.

SPEAKER_01 23:26

Well, then he tells him, I forgot what's how it was phrased, but he's like, Oh, he he one of the one of the rules of of convert or confrontation, something like that. And and the guy's like, What? He yeets him across the uh the uh room into the uh back of the elevator. That was pretty funny because he he does that later on, and the guy's like, oh no, he's talking weird again. And then they get the they get beat up again. Uh let's see.

SPEAKER_03 23:54

Oh, yeah. So Vincent reveals a document suggesting their mother did not die in childbirth, but refuses to search for her, convinced she abandoned him. Soon after he steals a Cadillac containing the cell, only to discover a prototyped fuel injector hidden in the trunk, realizing it was meant to be delivered to a wealthy industrial beetroot McKinley in Houston for five million dollars. Vincent decides to deliver it himself and collect the payment to settle his debts. Meanwhile, Webster, the ruthless curry originally responsible for the delivery, begins tracking Vincent down. Encouraged by Julius' optimism and about finding their family, and now we're caught up.

SPEAKER_01 24:32

Oops. Anyways, well, Vincent, like he they go to steal the car. Or, well, that's what Vincent's been doing, is stealing cars to get money. Well, he convinces Julius that like, oh, this one, we need this one to go and you know, it's for a child's charity. So to help him break into it, he lifts the car up and he's like, Yeah, if you hold it at 45 degree angle, it turns off the alarm. Does it really? I don't know, but that's what he did. He's lifts the car up until the alarm went off. And Vince is like sitting in the driver's seat the whole time going, oh my god. But this car is the same one that uh basically these two guys drove in there very suspiciously, and then they have something in the trunk that's covered up, which later on is revealed to be like some kind of jet engine, like prototype. The fuel injector I just read about. Yeah, but they don't reveal that in the movie yet.

SPEAKER_02 25:23

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_01 25:24

They don't actually don't reveal what it is until almost the end. Because the the guy that's he's supposed to deliver it to talks about it. But at this point, it's just covered up and it looks like some kind of engine piece.

unknown 25:35

Interesting.

SPEAKER_01 25:36

But uh Vincent told uh was told that his mom's still alive, and then they said it's it's five million for the car contents, and uh Vincent goes to like argue, I guess to get a better payment. Because at first he's like, I'll give you five. And Vincent's like, I can't do do any less than 20. And he's like, Are you kidding me? After we've already agreed to the amount, he's like, Okay, I can go down to 15. He's like, I'm not paying you 15 million. He goes, five will do.

SPEAKER_03 26:07

It's like it's five million dollars in 1988. Yeah, that's that's like that's retirement money, like forever and living affluently.

SPEAKER_01 26:15

And then uh as they're getting ready to leave, uh, he plans on leaving Arnold there. He's like, I don't know, I need to get some of my stuff. So Arnold goes to run back in the house, and that's when uh Linda and Marnie pull up behind him to where he can't back out, and she brought him a cake. He's like, Oh, okay. Marnie comes up and she's like, Where's your where's your brother? He's like, he's inside taking a shower. She's like, Okay. She runs inside, he comes out in just a towel, and she's like, Wow. And then he starts wearing some of Vincent's clothes because he's got like these, like, I guess they're supposed to be pants, but they're like shorts on him. And then he's got a buttoned-up shirt that's like struggling to your life.

SPEAKER_03 26:54

You could hear the stitches going, can't hold on anymore, cat.

SPEAKER_01 27:02

But uh, I mean I I like the the play on stuff that they do where you know, like him wearing Vincent's clothes, just to just to kind of mess with the stuff, but I don't know. It's it's a good movie, but it's it's just kind of some parts are a little strange. Like the jet engine thing.

SPEAKER_03 27:23

Like what it's it's a MacGuffin.

SPEAKER_01 27:25

Yeah. But it's like they could have they could have found out about the mom supposedly be still being alive, and that could have been enough to go to carry the plot. You would think. But then when they do they actually go to the place, they uh they find the one scientist that knows where she supposedly is, but he's like a jerk to them and like refuses to pretty much refuses to help him until uh Julius convinces him.

SPEAKER_02 27:54

Physically.

SPEAKER_01 27:54

Yeah. And then but then he I mean he basically tells Vincent that he's just a waste and byproduct of Julius. It's like this is what we were going for, and you're just there.

SPEAKER_03 28:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 28:06

So at the colony, the twins speak with a woman who claims Mary Ann Benedict has died. In reality, she is their mother, but she dismisses their story as a cruel joke, hurt and convinced he was unwanted. Vincent abandons Julius and travels to Houston alone to deliver the injector. Which, yeah, uh, this is where they find um, I guess they find their mom, but they don't realize it's her. And because she thinks it's a joke, because she thinks that her her kids die, or her her one son that she had died. Not that she had twins, right? But basically it's like an art colony where like when they get there, there's a security guard outside the door, he won't let them in, and then so they sneak in over the wall, which is funny because like as uh Arnold's helping uh Danny DeVito up on the wall, about the time he gets to the top, he just like shoves him over and he falls, which is pretty pretty funny. Um, and then you have uh their mom basically she goes and tells him she's like it's just a cruel joke, you know, somebody found out about me or something like that, and she dismisses the whole thing. Which then Vincent thinking that you know there's you know the mom just didn't care about him or anything like that.

SPEAKER_03 29:14

Kind of sad, but you know, it is what it is. Sad, sad, very sad.

SPEAKER_01 29:20

But at this point, I think I mean, really, during the trip, like the first part of the trip, he when he meets the uh the doctor that's kind of a a douchebag, that's when you realize that uh Vincent actually learns that he truly is his brother. Because it before he kind of didn't believe it.

SPEAKER_03 29:35

Talk about getting gypped.

SPEAKER_01 29:37

Yeah, you find like, damn it. Well, because uh, you know, he he spent his whole time in the orphanage, which I did mean to bring up when at the very beginning of the movie. You find out he he uh he stated an orphanage that had like the nuns were over over it. Well, they talk about how at 12 years old he he made one of the nuns no longer acceptable there. If you know what I mean. He disgraced Mary, uh they said disgraced uh something nun. She no longer works here. Which I thought was kind of funny because she was like one of his teachers or something like that. Um during their uh their like little road trip though, as they're taking the uh going to look for their mom, uh they have one part where they go to like some kind of bar and they basically they dance, and you have a part where like Arnold's doing hip thrusts and stuff as he's dancing with Marnie, and then they stay the night at the uh the hotel where uh was it uh Linda or no, Dan DeVito, he's like, Oh well, uh me and Linda are gonna spend a little time together. So he walks next door, and they close the door, and Arnold's in the room by himself, and all of a sudden there's a knock, and he's like, Oh, Vincent, you forgot something. And he opens the door, and Marnie's standing there in a t-shirt, and that's it. Well, she has on underwear, but she she comes in and he she's like, I guess since they're over there, I'm gonna have to stay over here. And she like seductively crawls on the bed, and he's just standing there watching, like, oh wow. He's like, All right, well, I like sleeping on the floor, and it's it lays down, and like Vincent set it all up because he knows because he's been on that island, he's a virgin. So he set it all up. So he's laying on like he lays down on the ground or whatever, and uh Marnie's like like five minutes later, she's like, These pillows aren't comfortable. Can I come down there with you? And he's like, sure. And then they're just laying there, and he what's funny is like Arnold's laying on his back, just like looking straight at the ceiling, not moving. And she's like curled up next to him, and then eventually she says something, and I forgot what it was, and he's like, Okay, they go to kiss and stuff, and then it goes from there, but then it like I guess after after the fact it pans over. You see her laying there, just like relaxing. I can't remember if she's like smoking a cigarette or whatever, but it pans over to him and he's just laying there smiling. It was hilarious. But uh yeah, she had to stay the night. She basically she wasn't taking no for an answer, though. When she joined, so it was funny. And then my phone went black. No, welcome to technical difficulties. Well, but yeah, then once uh going back to when the mom was like, no, that that uh their mom had died, even though she was it, um, Vincent takes off and leaves, like he just leaves them all there. Like at a like a gas station. Vincent's like, deuces pretty much, because he he takes the uh the thing to go try and sell it, and he just leaves them all there all the while. There's for some reason there's the guy that was supposed to be taking this piece to the guy as like a an assassin, and he's killed the two people that were originally the ones that parked the car because they saw his face, and so then he's pursuing uh uh Vincent, who has his stuff to where he can get his money. Um that's kind of a pointless plot piece, too. But anyways, in Houston, Vincent attempts to compl uh complete the exchange but is confronted by Webster, who's you know, that's the assassin guy, who murders McKinley and attempts to take the money. Julius arrives and pursues Webster through the building while Vincent initially escapes with the payment. Realizing he cannot abandon his brother, Vincent returns and offers the money to save them. When Webster prepares to kill them anyway, the brothers work together to defeat him. Which is another point that I thought was kind of strange in the movie, but basically it's like they have twin ES the ESP. Like, there's a part where uh Arnold's like driving and he's like he's going left and just starts turning left down this random alley. He's like, I can I can feel it, and then he starts walking one way, and then turns around and walks and walks the other. So in this part, uh Danny DeVito's character, Vincent, has already gotten the money and is getting away, but Julius was trying to save Vincent knowing that somebody was after him. Vincent's like walking down the tunnel, and he's like, Oh no. Julius. It turns around and goes back, and basically Julius is being held at gunpoint by Webster, and then they have like some kind of ESP communication where as the uh the uh the assassin guy is pointing the gun at Julius, Julius looks at uh Vincent and he just like hits his switch that drops a comedy movie worth of chain on top of him. Oh, the the pile of chain is bigger around than probably probably bigger around than a car and taller than Arnold. The amount of chain killed him. Yeah, the amount of chain that falls from this thing, it just keeps going and going and going.

SPEAKER_03 34:44

They killed him.

SPEAKER_01 34:45

Yeah. Um, and says afterwards, Vincent gives the injector and the money to the authorities while secretly keeping one million. The brothers reconcile and start a consulting business together. News reports about the unusual twins reach the art colony where Mary Ann realizes they are her sons. Mary Ann finds and tearfully reunites with them. Julius and Vincent later marry Marnie and Linda, and each has twins of their own.

SPEAKER_02 35:08

Awwww. Yeah. Aww.

SPEAKER_01 35:12

That's pretty much it. And that's it. Basically, that they start like their own like insurance company kind of thing. I don't know if it's an insurance or if it's like a illegal enterprise. Pretty much. I mean, it's it's it's the same thing Vincent was doing beforehand, but now he has Arnold with him. Now he has muscle. Pretty much for hire. Oh yeah. Yes. Yes, I know listeners, I am back and forth throughout the entire movie here and there. I jump around a lot. I'm sorry. That's what you get. So what happens when Hayden's not here? Keep it on the straight and arrow. So, well, um, yeah, I mean, like the mom returns, and then I don't know. It seemed kind of hokey. She walks back in, they're like, Mom! And they they hug it out, and then it flashes for they have two twins. Like two sets of twins.

SPEAKER_03 36:09

So my god, they're multiplying.

SPEAKER_01 36:11

That's pretty much how it ends, so there's not a whole lot to it. Now, do Dan DeVito's twins turn out to be like Arnold? Oh, well, I mean, there's a genetic. It's just four babies. You can't.

SPEAKER_03 36:20

Yeah, yeah, we don't know. No. They don't grow up. There was a cancelled sequel. That they were gonna do called triplets. And they were gonna return with Eddie Murphy.

SPEAKER_01 36:30

Ooh, that's been weird.

SPEAKER_03 36:31

Yeah, in March 2012, Universal announced the development of a sequel entitled Triplets, which Schwarzenegger and DeVito due to return with Eddie Murphy as their long-lost triplet brother. Reitman was set to co-produce. Uh 2015, he was announced it was on hold. 2018, Schwarzenegger affirmed that the script for triplets was finished and that Murphy was officially attached to the film. Um, they discussed the character. Funny things happened with the mixing of sperm. Uh 2021, it was announced filming would commence in January 2022 in Boston with Reitman directing Schwarzenegger and Vito reprising their roles and Tracy Morgan replacing Eddie, uh Eddie Murphy.

SPEAKER_01 37:10

That would not be good.

SPEAKER_03 37:11

Uh Tracy Morgan Reitman died in 2012, leaving the status of the film unclear. In 2023, Mark uh Schwarzenegger confirmed that the sequel would not be made as Reitman's son Jason put the idea to an end following his father's death.

SPEAKER_01 37:25

Tracy Morgan's he's he's an okay actor. Bad movie, but he's nowhere near the the level of Eddie Murphy.

SPEAKER_03 37:31

So now if they did like triplets in like 1989, yeah, and you had like 80s Eddie Murphy, you know, still delirious, raw, yeah, yeah, Beverly Hills cop. Yeah, that probably would have been a movie. That would have been a movie rather.

SPEAKER_01 37:44

But yeah, I'm kind of glad they didn't go forward with the trip with triplets. Yeah, that's probably for the best that that didn't happen.

SPEAKER_03 37:50

Yeah. So they could have driplets, but Stallone could have been. And then they could have dwadruplets and Bruce Willis was the other. And reformed Planet Hollywood in a movie. But no, but no, no, alas, yeah, didn't happen. So, Tom, what news do you have? Well, I'm I'll tell you, I'm told they're making another Call of Duty. Oh, yeah. Modern Warfare 4. The first time we get a fourth. It is, isn't it?

SPEAKER_01 38:19

I didn't think about that.

SPEAKER_03 38:20

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 38:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 38:21

Because you have the original trilogy, which I will defend till I die, is better than the remastered, yes, rebooted version. 100%. Those games were way better. The multiplayer was way better. The only thing Modern Warfare 2019 had going for it was it was the introduction of Warzone. Right. That we all knew and loved and hated at the same time.

SPEAKER_01 38:41

Well, I I'm really excited. I know you you weren't a big fan of the DMZ of the first one.

SPEAKER_03 38:46

It was okay, but I think I was still just so Warzoned. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 38:51

Uh, because at the time Warzone was still good.

SPEAKER_03 38:56

Yeah, well, no, that was when we went to Modern Warfare 2.

SPEAKER_01 38:59

Well, it was Almond.

SPEAKER_03 39:00

It was like stupid, slowed Warzone. The guns weren't great.

SPEAKER_01 39:06

I liked it better than that one. I know you.

SPEAKER_03 39:08

I don't like the spliding in 2019 Warzone. What that iteration was on for dance.

SPEAKER_01 39:14

It was oh to to me 2019 and the Modern Warfare 2 seemed pretty much similar. I didn't notice a big difference between the two.

SPEAKER_03 39:22

The the snipers were way better. Once they took it in the show, in 2019 had shots, it was over.

SPEAKER_01 39:27

Yeah. 2019 the sniping was much better because you could shoot somebody down there.

SPEAKER_03 39:31

Yes. I will say Modern Warfare 3, I think, was a step up. Like yeah, 2019 was just it was alright. I I feel like Modern Warfare 2 was kind of like a eh, a dip. Yeah. And then we went back up kind of with Modern Warfare 3, and then now we got future bull nonsense.

SPEAKER_01 39:49

Well, I will say there's I've heard a lot and done a lot of research on the DMZ stuff, because I really enjoyed playing it when it was considered a beta for Modern Warfare 2. But they've done they've done their work because like uh was it Infinity Ward is the ones that do Black Ops, right? No, Trey Arc, Trey Arc.

SPEAKER_03 40:06

Trey Arc does Black Ops and Infinity Ward does Modern Warfare.

SPEAKER_01 40:09

Infinity Ward has done their their work and their research to like they they've studied like stuff like Arc Raiders and things, the other extraction shooters to see what works and what doesn't. And they've already talked about how like in the original DMZ you you could get of a lot of a lot of stuff that really didn't make a difference, and it would just go into like uh the cache that you had at the end of the game, which still at the end did make a difference. They they looked into arc raiders how you can get materials that help you build items, and that's what they've kind of incorporated into this uh this new one, where you'll be able to get stuff that'll help you build like night vision goggles or stuff that'll help you build uh like you know different bombs and stuff, like kind of guerrilla-style warfare, like IEDs and things like that. Or med packs, and they said they did they focused a lot on the DMZ, the map is there they want it to be realistic. So, like you go to a police station, you're gonna find guns and ammo and armors and stuff like that. You go to a hospital, you're gonna find all like the medical supplies and things like that.

SPEAKER_03 41:07

So finding stuff you would actually expect in real life to be there, right?

SPEAKER_01 41:10

And then they they've done a lot of with the uh I was looking at the the what you call it um the weather dynamics. They said in you know they're gonna do a weather dynamic? Yeah, they said in like uh Almazra, there was times during the year where they would have like fog come in, and it would just be when you played on that map, there was fog. Well, they said in this one they've changed it to where like there'll be like heavy snow, or it can be raining and like a thunderstorm roll in and it get heavier rain to where it's like hard to see. They've had uh they've had some with snow. Um, they have the fog. I mean they had they said they it'll progressively change, and then the uh I forgot what engine they're using, but they said it it it looks like a lot a lot more realistic as far, at least as far as like the how the weather and the the like the water reflects and all that kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_03 41:58

They've done a lot with like the spatial recognition when it comes to the sound, where I don't know how to describe it, but basically like still hearing footsteps in the in a direction that you think they should be.

SPEAKER_01 42:08

Well, no, they said that they they fixed that to where like if the door's closed, everything's gonna be a little more muffled that's outside. If that door is open, if you're facing that doorway, you'll hear the stuff, you know, spatially like it should be. So they said this they said, yeah, they they had a lot of problems before where you would hear things that weren't didn't make sense. He said, with what they've changed, he said, as long as it's working properly, it should it it should sound just like you know in real life, where if somebody's to your left but outside that door, it'll sound like it's coming from there. And they said they worked a lot on that, and they showed I I don't know how to explain it, but they showed like a it's almost like a graph, like you're looking at uh it's like multicolored version as they're playing, and you could see like the red uh like little squares where the sound's coming from and stuff, as an example. So that was pretty cool. Uh they they wanted to make sure that like the uh the guns and stuff, they're gonna be customizable where like you can put different attachments on and things like that, but just like with the uh like grenades and stuff, you have to get certain items to be able to make these, but just like arc raiders, if you die, you you lose that and you have to rebuild it. No, but they didn't want like kind of like arc raiders, they want the uh you can make different tables and stuff that will help you build things, and you'll have to upgrade those. But he said it's not like impossible missions to upgrade them, it's just something you have to work towards. Um he said once you build the tables, they won't go away. They are gonna have like a uh like a headquarters that your your team can go to to build this stuff. You can either walk from table to table and like kind of converse with your your friends, or you can just quick, you know, kind of like they say quick move where basically you just go through a menu and it'll put you in front of the table. But he said they're gonna have like a range there, and they're gonna have like another area where you can test the equipment and things like that inside. This little headquarters area.

SPEAKER_03 44:01

Kind of like they did with COD uh with the original Modern Warfare remastered.

SPEAKER_01 44:05

Well, that and like well, like with ready, uh Ready or Not where like you can go where you're in the precinct. Yeah. They said basically you you can go and you could fire to see how the grouping is, um, depending on what you've put on there, different things like that. Uh, they did want to focus more on it being realistic, so they said for this, at least for now, they said there's not gonna be you know a unicorn running down the middle of the street. They said, you know, farting rainbows. They said they might kind of experiment with colors, like they might give you like a bluish uh camo or something, but they want to stick towards the realism that people say that they want. So I feel like for this game, they focus a lot more on what the general audience wants and not you know, I hate to say it, not just streamers that want the cool, flashy stuff. So I I'm I am excited to see this one. It's I mean, I haven't played a Call of Duty game in a year and a half, two years now.

SPEAKER_03 45:00

I have not played in shockingly, I have not played in a while because I deleted or I uninstalled whatever card it was we were playing. Well, they they also were I think what Black Ops 7 was then or six, I don't know. I think it was six because I got dark matter, and that was like the only thing I was doing. And it was only because like I was so far into it already, yeah, and like we had played some of the Warzone, but we were all fed up, and it was basically I just did the quest to get dark matter for all the original guns, and it was like, all right, I did it, and then we stopped, we pretty much stopped playing. It's just like then the new one was gonna be like future nonsense, and it was like nah, I'm done. And I just I didn't even buy that one.

SPEAKER_01 45:39

They uh another thing they talked about is there's gonna be a bounty system on this one where if you're a player killer, the more players you kill, the higher bounty you'll have until someone takes you out on the map.

SPEAKER_03 45:50

So if you keep winning, yeah, the the money to kill you goes higher.

SPEAKER_01 45:56

Yeah. They said on on top of that, as as your bounty gets higher, the AI, it's almost like uh GTA, where as you get more stars, more difficult enemies would pursue you and come after you. Well, same thing in this, where like the the more your bounty is well, we shouldn't play with Aiden then the more that's why I was telling Aiden, I was like, man, we're in trouble if we play with you. But uh yeah, the the more advanced AI enemies will be coming after you, it you know, the higher your bounty gets, which I thought was kind of cool because in this he said to do some of the missions, you don't have to fight everybody because they're they're gonna have yeah, they made the missions now where it wasn't like a linear right, like you're gonna go to this room, you're gonna do this, you're gonna go to the here, you're gonna do this.

SPEAKER_03 46:38

You have to do these things to get to there. Like you're you're you are forced to do it. Well, and this is like because even like Modern Warfare 3 like missions, like you could stealth it, you could go balls to the wall, you could sprint through it if you wanted to. Yeah, like you you had options on how you wanted to do it.

SPEAKER_01 46:54

Well, they said the for DMZ, it's gonna be like its own game because your operator in DMZ will level up differently from your multiplayer or the war zone. You said, and then each operator that you use will level up differently as well. Like you have this operator will level up separately from the next one, and then you can actually change their skills to where they're better at like sneaking or they're better at explosives or something like that, which is kind of neat because uh you can depending on the mission you want to do, you can have an operator that's better for that, and they're gonna have uh like as they said, campaign missions. There's uh like I guess it's it's story-driven missions, and then they're gonna have like PvP where you're going in and trying to hunt down the bounty, but all this kind of coincides on one map, but it just depends on like the type of AI that I guess that comes after you or something like that. It's kind of difficult to understand without letting them explain it. But basically, there's three different modes of DMZ that they're gonna have. And they said that uh they wanted it to be a little more realistic with the extractions where you're not just going to a spot and calling a helicopter down with a smoke grenade. They showed one of the extractions was on a rooftop. You had to go up and the helicopter comes down, lets the ramp down right at the edge of the building, and you have to run and jump in. Uh, one of them they put up this balloon, it basically like it's sky hook you out. Yeah, you sky hook you out. He said I uh they didn't explain whether that was a special way to get out, or special, or if it was just one of the one of the ways to get out. But there's there's a lot of cool looking stuff in this, and I like that they changed the uh the backpack system to where you the stuff that you get is is something you need because I remember a lot in the original DMZ, like I was saying, you would get like, oh well, here's radiation pills. Where when do I need these? Yeah, I mean you might need them if you go into the radiation zone, and then when you leave, you just it just gets added to your money based on the value of it. Which there wasn't a lot of reward for it right for DMZ. Which I feel like now that the way they've changed it is because you can get better guns, you can get better equipment, uh, you know, you can upgrade your character, his skills, different things like that. So I uh it gives it more of a reason to go in.

SPEAKER_03 49:07

So it I mean does any of this carry over to multiplayer?

SPEAKER_01 49:10

They no, they said this is gonna be its own. I mean, because your PvP in DMZ is completely different than PvP and straight up multiplayers or right. So it's it's gonna be its own thing, essentially. Which I mean, I'm okay with because I enjoyed doing the uh DMZ 2 or 2.0 or whatever they wanted to call the from Modern Warfare 2. I enjoyed going in. There was times I would go in and I would try to do the missions, and there was times I went in and I was like, I'm robbing the train. I'm gonna get on the train. If somebody's there, I'm gonna kill them. If somebody comes to the train, I'm gonna kill them. That's that's that's what that's my own mission today.

SPEAKER_03 49:45

That's what I'm doing today.

SPEAKER_01 49:46

Well, because I remember there was a what are we gonna do today, Mitch? We're gonna rob a train. Okay, Mitch, let's go get them. Well, because I I had uh the ghost uh operator that had like the uh the cowboy hat, and I would go in with two revolvers, dual, dual snakeskin revolvers. Oh, the snake shots. We were just having fun. I would I mean I would jump on the train, and that's that's what I would do. I'm probably not gonna win all the gunfights, but there was one time I think I killed like six people before they could take me out. So it was it's a lot of fun. Just to kind of have your own missions, you know, depending on what it is. So I mean I'm I'm excited for it.

SPEAKER_03 50:20

Yeah, it'd be nice to go back to something a little bit more familiar and not futury nonsense.

SPEAKER_01 50:25

Now I will say I tried to play the old DMZ, and it's been so long since we played Call of Duty, I almost died to the AI. I had to crawl to the helicopter. Basically, they had downed me and I had a self-revive, but I'd already called the helicopter, so the AI was like shooting at me, trying to, you know, trying to kill me. They downed me, I crawled to the helicopter, self-revived, and jumped in.

SPEAKER_00 50:49

Get me out of here.

SPEAKER_01 50:51

Like I came across one one other player that was in my area, and then I shot at him and then he took off. I don't know where he went after that, but other than that, I was just fighting AI. I was struggling. It's been so long. Uh like I I I couldn't turn my uh my uh what do you call it? The the speed, the sensitivity, sensitivity. I couldn't turn it up too high, or else I was going looking past people. Had to fix that.

SPEAKER_03 51:15

It's like not working out for a year and then going to a gym and picking up what you used to lift and go, oh my god.

SPEAKER_01 51:20

Yeah, no, it's gonna take some muscle memory recall. Yeah, yeah. I'm struggling, man. Luckily I made it out with the stuff that I went in with.

SPEAKER_03 51:30

Yeah, man, it's gonna be rough when I go on.

SPEAKER_01 51:34

But it was fun, and like right now, if you want to try and get back into the DMZ mind zone mind uh kind of zone or whatever, it's I think it's on the PlayStation store, and I think it's on uh Game Pass where you can just re-download it for free.

SPEAKER_03 51:49

I mean, I just I just I'll wait till the new one.

SPEAKER_01 51:51

I want to see some gameplay first before I I mean from what I've seen, uh it's not been like full-on gameplay, but it does look really nice. It looks fun for me, which I have not liked anything Call of Duty in a while.

SPEAKER_03 52:04

Yeah, it's it's been rough for a while.

SPEAKER_01 52:06

They said they're working on the anti-cheat. He said there's always gonna be cheaters, but because these guys were talking about the game, they weren't actually the developers, they were talking with the developers, and they said there's always gonna be cheaters, and that's what's something they're working on on how to ban them and things like that. So IP address. Well, yeah, you know. But I'm I am interested to see this game because it does look like a lot of fun, and I'm glad that they're Infinity Ward is trying to they would say they wanted to go back to the roots of what made Call of Duty Call of Duty, and it looks so far World War II from what they've shown, it looks like they have, at least so far.

SPEAKER_03 52:40

Well, I'm excited to check this one out.

SPEAKER_01 52:42

I think it's supposed to be based in like uh South Korea, North Korea.

SPEAKER_03 52:46

Yeah, that's what I was saying. So which is I don't even done that one. Uh-huh. We haven't gone that way that way yet. I need to play that Hell at Loose Vietnam one because uh some of the clips I've been seeing have looked absolutely hilarious and horrifying. I hadn't played that one yet. But it's like 40 bucks around that on uh Game Pass? Because the World War II one's still out for free. Well, right now Which I know you didn't like because it was run for 20 minutes, get shot by unknown people.

SPEAKER_01 53:09

I mean, it wasn't that I didn't like it, it just it I didn't play it at all unless you were playing because if you play it by yourself, you're just running around with not talking to anybody and not.

SPEAKER_03 53:20

No, no, I there's sometimes I I played and I got in like a squad, like there's like dudes communicating, and they're like, Hey, we're moving over here, we're gonna take this house. It's like, hey, who's got this? All right, get it over here to this window.

SPEAKER_01 53:29

Every time every time I played by myself, there was nobody was talking to anybody, and everybody was doing different things, so our squad wasn't doing anything.

SPEAKER_03 53:36

I got into a squad, there was like eight of us. Yeah, because like the squads are pretty big, and the dude, like, he was on point with the call-outs, where to put people, and he's like, Who's got what? And he's like, Hey, dude, he's like, Cover these stairs.

SPEAKER_01 53:46

He's like, I think they're coming up, and it's like it's like German's in the open, and it's just like grenade, well, I mean, because I could never find a group that was actually doing anything, I always just I got the sniper class, and then I snuck out and I would just you know get my my sniper position, I would just pick people off as they were running towards the the objectives just to get my own points because nobody nobody in my group was working with me, so useless. I would just sneak like a long way to go.

SPEAKER_03 54:11

I never know how you play, hiding in the shrubs, waiting for the moment, not helping the team at large, and and really making some people that were trying to find me mad.

SPEAKER_01 54:20

Because I would set up traps, and like there was one guy, he got so pissed off because I would hide in a different corner of this building that he kept coming to me. Like I would snipe some people and I'd hear like rustling, so I'd go and get in a corner, I'd kill him. I'd start sniping some more, he'd come back, I'd get in a different corner, he'd jump and shoot the corner I was in, I'd shoot him in the back. I was making it so mad. It was funny. Because like I he finally killed me after like five times, and he's like, Yeah, take that.

SPEAKER_03 54:47

Like, dude, you're out, you've lost you've been getting it's five to one.

SPEAKER_01 54:52

All right, buddy, scoreboard.

SPEAKER_03 54:56

But that's all I got.

SPEAKER_01 54:57

Yeah. I I like I said I'm I'm excited for Call of Duty. We'll see how that goes.

SPEAKER_03 55:03

We'll see how it goes. Exactly. Call of Duty these days. It's it's a mixed bag, you don't know.

SPEAKER_01 55:07

Hopefully, uh Hayden will be back for our next recording. He should be, I think. It would be nice.

unknown 55:11

SPEAKER_01 55:11

SPEAKER_03 55:14
