2:32

And because it is Thursday, yup, bo, it gets to go first,

2:37

and it's gonna dominate the entire what you're doing, because in case you

2:40

missed it, maybe you didn't listen and turn John your morning show this morning.

2:45

As of this podcast recording, we're going to WrestleMania next weekend, leaving

2:51

Friday, coming back the following Monday, going for both nights. Gonna be

2:54

a great time. Had it planned for months, but at least since August,

3:00

I think we've had everything playing kind of just sitting in sum Yeah.

3:04

Got the email us today of hey Ticketmaster, your tickets will be on your

3:07

phone. Great. I'll scan everybody in like up one, two, three,

3:10

four, five and eight people going great. It's myself, it's Kevin

3:15

brother John, mister eiic v in turn John Radio, old college roommate,

3:20

Matt, future brothers in laws, Tommy and Greg excited. It's gonna be

3:27

a great time. We booked our place a while ago, our verbo canceled

3:30

on us. Yeah, yeah, basking that silence. That's Kevin and I

3:38

say, we got no words, you know what I'm saying. It's just

3:42

it's just un professional. I'm learning later in my life that professionality is important,

3:49

exactly punctuality as well, and this was not punctual. Let me tell

3:52

you. So the story isn't It will be sad, but you know,

3:57

we like to make light of situations we're in and you learn from our mistakes.

4:00

One just good hotel at this point. Just get the hotel. It's

4:03

more of a guarantee than anything. I mean, it's a nice idea to

4:08

get a house and be like, yeah, we can all stretch out and

4:10

like, you know, if we need to be somebody needs to use the

4:13

back bathroom for some reason, we can go use the back bathroom. But I mean, hotels still, it's still guarantee you won't get canceled on.

4:20

So what happened is essentially actually I could play this one. Okay, the

4:25

I should have played that in the pregnant pause we had there, That's okay.

4:28

I didn't realize the time I was sad. With the pregnant pause, we booked a place. It was in South Philly WrestleMania this year XLS and

4:36

at the Eagles Field Lincoln Financial Field. We're gonna take an am track up

4:41

on Friday. The place was like ten minutes from the city center and fifteen

4:46

minutes from the field. Great excited, ready to go. I'm like,

4:50

literally, I think we literally finished the podcast on Monday. This episode.

4:55

I was like, all right, we talked about WrestleMania. We're excited.

4:58

Damn curs of this damn podcast. Kevin gets fired after a podcast. This

5:02

happens after a podcast. Essentially got the email, your verbo has been canceled.

5:09

We what what the hell happened? Pardon my French? What I'm gonna

5:12

say. This is the one time we're gonna say it. What the fuck

5:15

happened? Canceled it? Money, I didn't do anything. I purposely did

5:23

that so no one else could do that. Our host apparently canceled their being

5:28

because they had water damage, which we don't know if it's BS or not,

5:33

but hey, we're gonna think the light of the world and not the

5:38

darkness of the world. I've been no. Yes, So essentially there was

5:45

water damage because there it was raining a lot in Pennsylvania. I was there

5:49

this past weekend. We talked about on Monday for the bridle shower. Apparently

5:54

it flooded his house. Uh so Flora had to be fixed. Granted,

5:58

you're like, all right, cool, that was last weekend. Why can't you have it ready by next week? Repair person? We all know how

6:03

repair people work. If it is a real thing, it it will be

6:06

finished in today. So we can't stay in a flooded thing, so we

6:10

canceller the thing. We got our money back, so that's great. Appreciate

6:14

that we got our money back. However, as of this podcast recording,

6:17

we're homeless for WrestleMania. Still, we really are. I mean I was

6:24

thinking about it. I'll talk to Malicia about it. Actually, for you

6:28

guys, it sucks because you guys live in DC and below basically, which

6:31

is a little bit of a hump. I could conceivably go up to nights

6:35

and drive back home because it's not Philly, well even designing Philly. Look,

6:39

if it feels long like a ninety minute drive for me, drive really

6:42

fast. But that's driving from Baltimore to Philly, not driving from NASAs or

6:46

driving from Fair fact Phili that's a rough ride. Yeah, so we've been

6:50

looking at places. Got on the call literally after the podcast, was like,

6:55

oh more and I will have some chill time, maybe planning some money

6:57

and stuff. No crisis mode on Monday day, having a call of Verbo's

7:01

customer service. Why you pay service fees for these places and it's so expensive.

7:05

It's so you have a customer service to call. Second thing is like

7:10

any customer service, not the best people answering the phone is what I'll say

7:15

there. But they're like, all right, we escalate your case, and

7:18

I was like, cool, cool, we recorded the phone call just in

7:21

case to have proof. That's also always a thing. Record the call on

7:25

your phone or a separate phone doesn't hurt. You can delete it later saying

7:29

we escalate your case to the travel care team or something. And that's been

7:34

okay because we got hooked up with a guy who's like, all right,

7:36

we're gonna give you an extra fifteen hundred dollars, so you technically will reimburse

7:41

you fifteen hundred dollars after your trip. So you have three thousand dollars to

7:45

play with. Here's the thing. There's nothing under three thousand dollars in Philadelphia

7:50

or else it's like an hour away, which defeats the purpose of us.

7:55

I felt like, I said, I've found a place in King of Prussia,

8:00

like a thirty minute ride from It's basically like like the like suburbs of

8:03

Philadelphia. Yeah, just riding to suburbs back in the city, which is

8:05

a lot. Yeah. You know, the whole point was to get a

8:09

place those in the middle, so that way, you know, we could

8:11

go do day stuff, come back, change, go do Mania both nights.

8:16

I'm still trying to figure that out. We're looking at a place potentially

8:18

in Cherry Hill, which is in Jersey. It's like ten minute whatever,

8:22

it's across the bridge, whatever. There's another place. Your boy always pays

8:28

it forward, is be nice, say thank you in advance in your emails

8:31

or any conversations. Usually that helps here or there. Our homeboy, Jim

8:37

ed Verbo is talking to his peers about he called me, which is great.

8:41

It was a legit dude of like, all right, let me talk

8:43

about dude, see if we can approve you for this one. So if

8:46

I have to leave the podcast, it's because I'm talking to Jim. Jim

8:50

bloves down, Jim. We are counting on you, because if not,

8:54

I may have to have some duce he over my house with a newborn, which is not gonna be fun for Kevin. We'll just find an airbnb ten

9:01

minutes from your house and like, Kevin, you have to stay here.

9:03

It's bachelor party rules. And I'm like, hey, wife, can I be your six passenger car? Yes? How many people fit in her car?

9:11

In her car, it's a tight squeeze, but we can get the

9:16

passenger seat would be you because you're you're you're the bachelor. Then the two

9:20

captains seat says three, I could fit seven in there. Person in the

9:24

trunk. We're good. See the third row seats up, no trunk trunks.

9:31

So someone sits on the floor and lays down. You go planks the

9:35

entire time. That way, when we go park, no one sees the eighth person on the floor. We're fine. And guess who's gonna be.

9:43

It's gonna be one Tommy Skelly, the tallest one out of us, can

9:46

do that. His feet be touching your What do you do? Get that

9:50

out here? But yeah, so just hey, that's what's happening both of

9:54

us. So so what you're doing to the two of us and the other

9:58

six people. We're figuring out. So if you know anybody in Philly it

10:01

has a house or a basement that they would let eight people stay in,

10:05

we'd like that. We'd appreciate that. It's really just frustrating that they would

10:09

do that two weeks out, like not even two it's a week a week

10:13

and change literally a weekend in two days, or something you knew you had

10:16

water damage a month ago because it's been raining for a month and a half,

10:20

like rain and something that just just happened. So they come on,

10:24

this is the most ranty complaining we might be on this podcast. We like

10:28

to keep it positive in life, but hey, you know, shit happens,

10:31

and that's why we're cursing, said podcast. So and then all I

10:37

said, all the good stuff is like I saw one place in this place

10:39

is available. Oh seven thousand dollars a night. That's whyle Yeah. Oh

10:43

we have three beds. There are eight burly men, eight burly men of

10:48

three double beds. Men. We're not dealing with nineteen year olds. Three

10:52

double beds ain't going to hack it. So we're figuring out if anything next

10:58

we's gonna be interesting I'm gonna tell you that right now. I mean,

11:05

maybe maybe you get one in Delaware and just drive Delaware to Philly. I don't know. I don't know. Man at a lot of options in Delaware

11:11

right outside the Amtrak, but I get like a booge Yes mansion in Delaware.

11:18

The chat, the chat is is actually loving a PG thirteen is hoodie.

11:20

Hoodie's making a PG thirteen. You know it's bad when Hoodie's just freely

11:24

letting the curses out. You want to hear that. Go to our other our sister podcast, Let's get weird because I don't really do that. Eric

11:31

does that, but hey, you know, sometimes you got a curse just

11:33

to get the demons out. Let the expert is fly one, let them

11:37

fly. But that's our what you're doing, Kevin, got anything else you

11:39

want out or you just want to go straight in these No, because I

11:43

want you doing it. It's I'll just say because of current events. I've

11:46

been to work a lot lately, so that that's my what you're doing. Yes, uh wild, we'll say that. And if you're going the World's

11:54

Game opening day or in your future plan accordingly, if you use that bridge

11:58

so light rail subway bus, no driving, driving and work stopping no ubers.

12:05

Uh but Kevin, let's get be happy. Let's talk about the things

12:07

we love to talk about. It's the nerdy news you need to know.

12:11

It's time for the news. No news, you feel happier. It's our

12:18

woo saw of just don't think about it, compartmentalize it. And when the

12:22

podcast ends, Depression dark Time. After that amazing Raw Monday Night, thinking

12:28

that happened, They're like, I'm gonna wait until the Rock delivers a great

12:31

promo and see Him Punk announces he's guests commentator, and then are gonna cancel

12:35

him for both right to the first f ball on Raw in forty years,

12:39

and that's where're going to cancel you. It was a lot of there's a

12:43

lot of cursing on Raw, and our podcast reflects what's happening on Monday night

12:48

Raw. Apparently, tell you what verbo HOODI is your final boss. You

12:52

don't mess the final boss. I'm ready right now. Well, this just

12:54

happens made me a little happy. We really needed a place first. They'll

12:58

make me even happier. I got my see Him Punk shirt and my WrestleMania

13:01

jacket that came in right before the podcast started, so I'm excited. They

13:05

look great. So yeah, I was waiting until we get up at to

13:09

get our stuff. Okay, well you told me to buy it ahead of

13:11

time, so I was like, all right, I'll buy it ahead of time. By my head, I think I'm going to eat, hoodie.

13:16

We're all buying and eat T shirt. I'm gonna tell you that right now because it's fun. Because one, it's like you eat, so it's yeat.

13:24

Men's also yeat as a word in itself. So just eight dudes rolling

13:28

with yeat shirts, whether it's the white color, the black colored shirt.

13:35

See, we're already happy you look what the news did for us. But

13:37

first things first, we have to talk about Godzilla Kong the New Empire.

13:48

I was going to see this on Tuesday night, but then happened, which

13:52

is why we're talking about first Like Kevin can move on past it and be

13:56

okay with it. So you might think, Hoodey, why didn't you say

14:00

the X? Yeah, the X isn't pronounced at all in this title, apparently we found out. So it's not Godzilla Cross Kong, Godzilla X Kong,

14:07

Godzilla times Kong. It's Godzilla Kang the New Empire Ko Godzilla has a

14:16

good ring to it. I mean, I kind of want them to have

14:18

a baby together, even though I know that I don't know if that's how

14:20

it would work, but you know, mammals and reptiles, scaley ape,

14:26

I'm down for it. But I got to see it with mister Eric V.

14:30

Kevin couldn't go because the current events, and that's totally okay. But

14:33

it is an hour fifty five, so that's great for your run times because

14:37

sometimes those monster movies get a little too long. You're like, all right,

14:41

wrap it up, you're fighting each other. But I will say I

14:45

had a really good time with this movie. Went in with low expectations,

14:48

very surprised by it. That's good. The one thing I noticed watching a

14:52

lot of a lot of the a lot of the red carpet coverages, and

14:56

then just maybe get you some some brownie points. Your fiance looks a lot

15:01

like a breccahole, thank you. They favor a lot like Somewhere somewhere along

15:07

the genalogy line. It might be shared on an uncle something. You know

15:11

her, you know you related her? Oh yeah, you know, no,

15:13

okay, nothing, Kevin just thinks people of brown hair look the same.

15:20

Yes, I do. It is my one stereo just brown hair,

15:24

and jenneral, you got blue hair, you're different. Brown blonde, you're

15:28

different. Brown before brown hair, you just say, but yeah, it's

15:33

actually really good. It is still the continuation of the Monster verse of movies

15:37

that came out when with Godzilla twenty fourteen and then Conks Caul Island and all

15:43

the other ones in between, too many to count, but it definitely feels

15:48

like it could be a culmination point as far as I know. I don't

15:52

know if there's rumors of something happening after it, but it does. It's

15:56

at a good point. At the end of the movie, they're like,

15:58

all right, that's good. We're at a good point for everybody right now.

16:03

Crazy that movie came out ten years ago. Wow, this doesn't seems I wasn't like that wasn't that long ago. Let's see any sequel. Okay,

16:08

so potential sequel. The director is interested in making another film of Godzilla

16:14

and Kong, but it just depends how this one does and shapes out.

16:18

I don't know we need I mean, I think we have Godzilla minus one

16:22

that also came out well, it came out last year technically, but it's

16:25

more relevant this year because it won an Oscar, So it's interesting like,

16:29

well, we have that too, so if we want to just rest Godzilla car, we can do that instead. And I think uh, shim Gouds

16:34

came out in between uh the last Godzillakon movie in this one, so that's

16:40

kind of another popul Yeah, uh, you know, Godzilla go in public

16:44

domain. It's okay, but it is interesting that this movie is more of

16:48

a Kong movie than Godzilla. Even though Godzilla got top billing, It's whatever,

16:52

it's the Roman Rains Cody Roads effect. He's Roman Rains gets top billying.

16:56

Sorry, but it is interesting that we had Godzilla Minus one a couple

17:00

months ago, and I feel like the director of this was like, oh,

17:04

well, that movie's coming out, so we don't have to dial in

17:07

as much for Godzilla as we need to because everyone knows about Godzilla. I

17:11

feel like even the last one was a little more calm than Godzilla too,

17:17

because because with King of the Monsters, he's obviously the King of the Monsters.

17:19

Now his chlagar has been developed, like, yeah, this is the

17:23

guy in the movie. Godzilla is really and this is all non spoiler.

17:26

Godzilla's really like the He's like the parent that like, all right, y'all

17:33

done, f up, I'm coming in there. I get rid of these

17:36

Titans and kaijrews, y'all left up. Daddy's got to come in here.

17:40

Just wait till Godzilla gets home exactly. I will say, Brownie points Kevin,

17:45

and this will make you appreciate it whenever you see it. Got major

17:48

crados vibes from Kong in this movie. Oh okay, that definite makes me

17:52

happy. Good credos vibes from modern God of War video games. So yeah,

17:57

made me appreciate the thing. He became friends with even more. Ah,

18:02

okay, gotcha, that's awesome. And then Milli Bobby Brown doesn't make

18:06

an appearance. I know, we were like, oh, she's in every movie. No, Brian Terry Henry, isn't it, along with Rebecca Hall

18:11

and a couple other people. But I would I would probably get it,

18:18

say in eight out of ten. I had a good time. I wasn't

18:21

really disappointed by anything because it was under two hours technically sounds great. It

18:26

was coming out so early. It seems to be like a movie that you

18:29

would kick off like a moment day weekend movie. Yeah. I think also

18:33

like this summer blockbus we kind of talked about this a couple weeks ago.

18:37

The Summer Blockbusters season this year really isn't until like June. Like everything this

18:44

year is all like kind of soft launched up until the end of May.

18:47

Then all the heavy hitters come out in June and then July with Deadpool three

18:49

or dead Pull woverine, which is why. Also we're getting all the re

18:53

releases of the Spider Man movies and the Shrek movies and stuff like that.

18:57

Yeah, it makes sense. The different kind of film space this year,

19:00

a lot of placeholder. Yeah, but hey go check it out. And

19:03

we saw it an IMAX, so seal the biggest screen possible because you love

19:07

to see big monsters beat them up like a rampage style. Did the guys

19:12

the thing hit hard when he showed up. I love it wasn't that Don

19:17

Don don don that one, but it was like, like, what,

19:19

I don't know if this is the theme Godzilla has had the entire monsters beause

19:23

it's been ten years, but it very was. Every time he was on

19:26

screen, you heard the same beat pattern, which was good. That's awesome.

19:30

That's don't even finish that show. Actually, I don't. A monarch

19:33

Legacy of monsters heard it's really good first them, really good. I just

19:38

got to finish it. Also, speaking of streaming, pro tip, right

19:42

now, thanks to our ford at Warrio, sixty four four movies are for

19:45

free on Prime Video right now. A Christmas Story, Ernest says, Christmas

19:51

20:06

have Christmas Story Forever for every Christmas. And The Replacements is funny set in

20:10

DC, filming in Baltimore, but also just all in all, really good movie. It's a really good football yeah, and it's a lot of people

20:15

in it. They're like, oh man, they were in that yeah at

20:18

the time, so many people in that movie that we're famous back then,

20:21

but not maybe they are famous still now. Besides, like Keanu Reeves is

20:26

in the movie freaking out, what's his name? I'm where we're going the

20:30

created the man Lorian genre of John Favreau. John Favras in the movie as

20:34

a linebacker, so see early John Faberril the Boy became a director exactly.

20:40

But Kevin, we're not done talking about things that came out this week because

20:45

Spider Man really Miles Morales has a new short film you need to go watch

20:52

on YouTube for free. It's been kind of out and about at animation festivals

20:56

for the past like four months, but now you can watch it for free

20:59

on YouTube. It says it's seven minutes with credits, it's really like five

21:03

minutes. It's called The Spider within a Spider Verse story and Kevin hasn't seen

21:07

it, and that's OK. It's like five minutes. So there's not a

21:10

lot too quickly talk about a lot, but essentially it's Miles going through sort

21:15

of an anxiety attack, having to be Spider Man and man in school and

21:18

have to, you know, impress his parents. It's kind of what we

21:21

all went through in high school when he did all the extracurriculars and realized I

21:25

have no downtime. Me. Well, Kevin, I'm gonna tell you,

21:30

like Miles, I had one of these panic anxiety attacks, and I was

21:33

like, I don't know what's happening right now. I was more like,

21:37

none of this matters, and I wasn't totally wrong, right. That was

21:41

Evil Kevin back in Evil Kevin Emo Emo Evil Kevin. I have yet to

21:47

use the hels my daily life. I did not need to take that class. He's just wait till Lea needs you to do her algebramework and you're like,

21:52

oh, she has an aunt who was really good in that as her

21:56

I didn't need to ask her mom. I don't know. So the short

22:00

we get Brian Terry Henry back as Officer Morales, yes, correct, Miles'

22:07

dad essentially, yeah, Davis, I don't remember Davis. Miles day,

22:12

Aaron date, Aaron Davis, that's sure as dad. You get Shimik Moore

22:18

back as Miles. Pretty much, that's what it's five minutes, but it

22:21

is cool just that, like it takes place in between into the Spider Verse

22:25

and across the Spider Verse. No tea up of Beyond the Spider Verse,

22:29

but just get you a little fixed on for five minutes of good animation.

22:33

I'm still like savoring for salivating for that new movie. But I don't know

22:37

when we're going to get it. Twenty twenty seven. Maybe if we're lucky,

22:42

twenty seven may be said, well, twenty twenty seven, Kevin,

22:48

you'll have like a ten year old I think at that point ten and a

22:51

three year old. I don't want to think about that, Kevin, I'll have a three year old marriage, but probably another dog or two, maybe

23:00

five. Whatever. It's Jefferson Davis. I thought it was Aaron Dave.

23:04

Hold on Jefferson. It might be Jefferson Davis. Actually I think it is

23:11

Jefferson Davis. Correct, we mix the names. Aaron Davis is prouder.

23:15

That's what we got. But yeah, it's fun if you need someone to

23:18

watch, to watch it. But Kevin, wh're not done talking about things

23:22

that only one of us have watched, because we have to talk about X

23:26

Men ninety seven, because Kevin's watched the third episode and it's time for him

23:33

to break it down. So I went really old school with this one.

23:44

I actually woke watch it this morning before I went to work while eating a

23:47

bowl of cereal. So I'm really old school. It felt right right,

23:52

A bowl of rice christmis next man, Yeah, yeah, I'm home. This one was really good. I don't know if you haven't watch any of

24:00

me. I haven't watched any of them. I'm still in my old X

24:03

Men watch. I'm in season four now, I think. So I've done

24:07

the Dark Phoenixes and all that stuff. Fat. Yeah, So this one

24:12

picks up right where the last one left off where spoilers. No, it's

24:18

just three episodes in, so it's fine. It picks up where were the

24:21

last one left off, where another gene showed up at the door and people

24:26

were like, huh, what's going on? So it turns out that the

24:30

gene that we saw the first two episodes was actually a clone of mist Senator.

24:33

That's how crazy X Man gets. By the way, it was right on the comics. It was a guy. Mister Senator is obsessed with the

24:38

Summers DNA because apparently they have perfect or like really good mutant DNA and to

24:44

create the perfect mutant, so you couldn't have a gene cloner and put a

24:48

new gene in Hot Club's life to make a perfect Summer's baby. So you

24:51

had that baby and mutated right, and then now it's episode. It's called

24:53

Madeline Prior. Now her name is Madelon Pryor also called the Goblin Queens.

24:59

He has a bunch of other names. And it's weird because I just did Dark Phoenix and stuff. It was like you already have like multiple things with

25:04

with Jean Gray. They're like, all right, she's Phoenix too, and

25:07

now she's a clone and got Madeline. Can we just keep it simple with

25:11

Jean Gray? Like, can we just get one? I'll tell you.

25:15

I'm not sure if it was. It was Christopher what you call it Christopher

25:19

the original X Men run, but he really puts Cyclops and Jean Gray through

25:23

it. Man, they've been through everything. Yeah, and it's funny.

25:27

It was funny how it's like the episode after the Phoenix saga and the original

25:32

shows. Uh, Cyclops does the Deadpool two storyline where he goes back to

25:37

the orphanage and like this pyro kid is like on the run from the Orphanage.

25:41

I'm like that dead boll too, Like what the hell, Hey,

25:45

I've seen this before? Any drug gonna put it best? Nothing simple with

25:49

Jean Gray. Ever, it's not I don't know if you guys familiar with

25:53

with a podcast called Geekissrey Lesson. It's done by Jason Man and Ashy Victoria

25:57

Robinson. They go really in Death One all a lot of comic book characters

26:00

just not like their stories, but their biography is what they've done. Listen

26:03

to the cyclog great one. It is like, dude, you guys,

26:07

how you even how do you still believe it's good in people? Because you've

26:10

been through a lot. It's one of the best podcasts that is an ours.

26:14

So this one also its pretty cool because it actually ends with them basically

26:19

taken, which is essentially cable back to the future to get treatment for its

26:23

technico organic virus, which Okay, I thought we dealt with that in the

26:27

original show, but okay, I guess not. Nope, because the time

26:30

so everything comes full circle. We had to get there somehow, and that's

26:33

how we got there. That is interesting just because you've been watching it.

26:37

Where like X Men original set in the nineties and even then kind of back

26:41

to the future, everything was like twenty fifteen. I don't know if they

26:45

really had dates or anything like twenty twenty. Do they address any of that?

26:48

I like, no, not that everything still looks the same and all

26:52

this stuff, or they don't really address it because even back then, oh

26:56

well sorry, technically, I guess it's ninety seven, so it takes place

26:59

in ninety yeah, even back then with like Spider Man, even to the

27:03

point where Batman he had me in a series it was I guess the time

27:08

of where we were where they were, so it was in the ninety six

27:12

but I mean Batman they had cell phones and FaceTime, but it was like

27:15

we didn't have that, but they had it. And the same thing with

27:18

X Men they have cell phones and FaceTime and cerebral the technology that's farther on

27:22

what they actually are at this time. But Kevin how is a favorite character

27:30

so far I guess of ninety seven, So I think it's honestly for me

27:33

because just because of no one how the character is the comic books and how

27:37

he's being portrayed. Finally right now with the Cyclops, because in the comic

27:41

books, Cyclops is a Captain America level like leader. Like the X Men

27:47

says jump they say how, he says how hot? They say, he says jump and say how high? And the way the way he uses his

27:52

his powers on the battlefield, his sense of space in the room, like

27:56

he's he's he's really even though he's not an Omega level evening he's a making

28:00

level threat. Like if X being led by Cyclops, it's the problem.

28:03

The same way when the Avengers are lived by Heptain America, it's a problem.

28:06

So the way they've treated him so far in this, I think it's been really really good and also a lot of and you've seen this because you're

28:12

watching through the series, a lot of the olks it was just him yelling

28:15

Gene no, why she thinks to the entire Yeah. So in this these

28:21

last two he's done that, but it's been a reason for it. Like he was with a woman that he thought was Gene and it wasn't Gene.

28:26

It was it was a clone. So you kind of got understand that.

28:30

Now now we'll understand Gene tho when you're said, I get that before it

28:33

just like she got hit, Like dude, she's fine. He's telekinesis should

28:36

we are? And then so now that you've kind of you've had you had a week since last the two episodes last week, how is the animation style

28:42

this? Taking a week off and watching it again, it's totally sens well,

28:47

sitwell with me? Now I don't even notice it anymore. I think that trailer was just yarring to see the way they was still. It also

28:52

was a condensed trailer for YouTube and not what would be on Disney Plus exactly.

28:57

So right right right now, it's definitely and like we said last week,

29:00

it definitely has like Archer vibes a little bit, and it's definitely grown

29:03

on me each week and I don't even notice anymore. So now like there's

29:07

remembers that they may revitalize some old other old marvel vs do. Come on,

29:15

if they did Spider Man in this style, I think it will look

29:19

look amazing the one I beg them not to do because it wasn't that good

29:23

anyway. It was as the Iron Man series that was not a good series.

29:26

It's funny. So I watched, you know, finish up the Dark

29:30

Phoenix saga, and there's a Phoenix saga before it is they have like the

29:36

cutaway episodes of here are all the heroes across the world protecting it while like

29:40

it's getting sucked into a black hole crystal gem or whatever, and they don't

29:45

show Spider Man and they just so flip and that's it. And they show

29:48

Iron Man off colored of like being gray completely gray scale like Oh, so

29:52

that's probably that I'm trying to bend the rules of like, oh, we

29:56

couldn't get anything for these characters, so we did what we could. It

29:59

was one glorious Saturday Morning where Spider Man and X Men crossed over, but

30:03

on Spider Man is on X Men. I'm a little kid out with blowing

30:06

that. We're like, oh my gosh, Wolverine's fighting Spider Man. What's gonna have We'll get there, We'll get there, all right, great,

30:12

Well, I'm excited to watch it eventually. I think we have five more

30:17

episode or at least ten. Well I don't know. X Men ninety seven

30:22

episode May fifteenth, I believe so ted episodes, so we got seven episodes

30:26

ago. Still yeah. And also at the end of this episode, Storm

30:30

meets Forge, which is kind of cool. So I just met Forge and

30:34

it's funny. The Iceman episode Bobby, they introduce a butt ton of X

30:40

Men known as X Factor. I'm like, wait, where are all these people coming from? Well, that's the other thing. There's so many ex

30:45

laden groups that That's one thing I hope that MCU doesn't try to do is

30:48

here's X Factor, Here's X Men, here's a dark man pig group of

30:53

and stick with them. That's the best thing the movies did is they stuck

30:56

with a group of them. Maybe sprinkle in one or two every movie.

31:00

So I do think this is funny doing my therapy session on my therapists on

31:03

Tuesday. He kind of distracted me from the horrible miss ups going on on

31:08

Tuesday. We talk about MCU and comic books for hours, which is really

31:11

awesome. And he wrote up wrote in they wrote in their notes, talks

31:15

too much about them to see you might be obsessed. But we sort of

31:21

like fan cast it fan written or fan book that Avengures six should be imaged

31:26

versus X Men, And that's how he interested the X Men. Well get

31:30

there, We'll get there. We get there. Can we got you know,

31:33

we have the teases. We know Miss Marvel's technically a mutant. It'd

31:37

be interesting and they introduced that, well they can't. Well it's not Cannon,

31:41

So they could introduce her in this show if they wanted to that that

31:45

that that would be awesome. Actually, that would be really cool because this

31:48

this is a different a different dimension. I mean, that's a multipson.

31:52

That'd be pretty cool. Actually, I like that think about it, and

31:56

then Kevin, your last question on this, your likelihood that Charles Xayver we'll

32:00

come back at the very end of this after the third episode. I think

32:04

socause he's in opening credits and he still is, so that makes he's still

32:07

alive some way. They're not changing it anytime soon. Yeah's not the first

32:09

thing. I was like, Oh, yeah, he's dead. Then opening

32:12

credits, like, oh, he's probably gonna come back at some point.

32:15

It would be cool, like it's the future proofing of this show. It

32:19

ends at X Men two thousand, just because like, putting two thousand on

32:22

anything back in two thousand was great. Everyone did it. Wrestlemaning in two

32:25

thousand, X Men two thousand, that's how you ended, you know with

32:29

the fourth season. I remember, uh yeah, everything with two thousand back

32:34

then. It makes it makes sense. And it could also because I remember

32:38

what was the X three the end credits scene was him waking up in a

32:45

in a another body, another body because that patient was brain did so he

32:49

transferred his consciousness over to that person, and I'm like, wow, imagine

32:52

being immortal. That's what could happen. Well, that's what's happened in the

32:57

Universe of the X Men. But Kevin, you have to head on over

33:01

to Reaction Theater because uh oh, ever we go, nothing popped up there

33:07

for a second. Oh that's not good. It all popped up. Eventually

33:10

we have to watch talk and react to the new trailer. First trailer really

33:17

for Marvel Rivals, new video game from Marvel Games. And if you like

33:22

Overwatch, you're gonna like this game. If you don't like Overwatch, well

33:28

you don't have to play it. Yep. So Kevin account three you can

33:34

play one, A two and A three. Oh my audio, there we

33:42

go, perfect, love it. It was quiet at first. Nettie's Games.

33:49

You'll need to talk. That's going to win this one, all right,

33:58

get ready, looking like okay, it's not a mobile game. It

34:02

could be, could be, all right, it's same guy voices Tony Stark

34:15

and everything that's not Robert Towdy, Jry got that kind we do get Urie

34:25

Lord call, so that's good. And this girl, I don't know this

34:31

girl and the Mark Troy Baker is low Key, Magic, Noly North,

34:54

Rocky Maxim, Penny Parkers. I'm guessing it's Penny Parker, Luna Snow Joe.

35:20

Oh Wife ou Galactus colect Coalecta, I like Wife of Galactus. Marvel

35:30

Rivals Close Alpha begins in May, and we'll have that back in the background

35:37

while we're talking about it. So, Kevin, you didn't see this trailer

35:40

until I told you we were talking about today. What do you think about

35:44

this trailer? Getting game so far? I have to be I hate to

35:47

be the down about I hate everything about this game. And that's the opinion.

35:52

You cannot like things that we talk about, you know. I know

35:54

I try to be, you know, just you know, just a happy

35:59

person about the thing. But this this is a game not for Kevin.

36:02

Like that, Kevin said, I don't want it. I don't want any

36:06

part of it. Will be investing any time in this game. If we get a code, I'm gonna give it to somebody else. Oh you hear

36:10

that. If we get a go you can have Kevin's code. Yeah,

36:15

So this will be a game that I'll be interested in because it's just there's

36:19

nothing about this that looks appealing to me. That's just me and that's okay.

36:22

So if any drug on the chat said twitch our TV slash Infinite in

36:28

his corposea ya ified Galactus and that's okay. We're use to different versions of

36:34

different characters. Let's face, I'm playing Marvel Snap and I an't got Galactus

36:37

still because I thought it was good, but apparently not. I can't get

36:40

Galactus in the damn game. But there's so many versions of those characters,

36:45

and we're so used to the multiverse that they can kind of do whatever they want. And I assume that's what they're gonna pay all this game behind off.

36:51

You want the cool suits, Well, I guess well, you got paid for. That's something that kind of drove me back from this game.

36:57

I could see my transactions in this game already mounting up. It's just they're

37:00

going to be we wanted a Greenhawk, that's gonna cost you five nine?

37:05

Yeah, I watch you a great hawk and you'll like it. So the

37:08

interesting thing is it's made by net ease. It's a superhero team based PvP

37:15

shooter. If it sounds familiar, yes, that's like overwatching a lot of

37:17

the other team based shooters we've had over the years. It is like we

37:22

said, close beta and may give me six v six team based shooter.

37:28

It will be coming to PC, coming to consoles, and most likely will

37:34

be in like beta or that public type beta in the end of the year.

37:37

Yeah, this is where game is going. I mean, I'm guessing

37:42

it will be some kind of free to play. I don't know. I don't think it will be like a if anything, it would be coming like

37:46

maybe like a Hell Diverse that's like, you know, not full price.

37:50

So the Galactus is not a yasified version of Galactus or Waifu Galactus. It's

37:54

his daughter Glacta. So there you got Galata doth goest. He'll go ahead

38:02

and get Gotha Knifson and kill just the league first. I mean, I

38:06

think this is better than that. I mean I think so too. I think you'll get more fun out of this than of those games too. But

38:14

yeah, tell you what, who want to rank them? I will say this then Gotham Knights in Justice League. Yeah, and like, I don't

38:21

know. I mean, I'll try it, but I think I'm getting vibes.

38:23

I forget what the game is called. It was an iPhone game,

38:27

Marvel. It's like Marvel. Well that's contested Champions and there's tons of Marvel

38:34

games that's not you know, there's not everything's gonna be a hit with Marvel

38:37

games, and that's okay, because's gonna have a wide breadth of games that

38:42

summer really good. Some you know, just make some money to get support

38:45

for those other games. Uh. It was Marvel Future Fight from net Marble,

38:50

not net Ease, where like you would be your character and play this

38:52

kind of storyline through everything essentially, and it was it was a mobile game,

38:58

you know. But and there's Marvel Strike and yeah, so there's a

39:01

bunch of Marvel games already. So this is just an extension of that Marble

39:05

Snap, which is really good. So you gotta have this too at the

39:07

same time. And I think also, I'm still kind of a little salty

39:12

that they and the support for marvels Avengers kind of think it was that bad.

39:15

M hm. So anytime I see a game like this whereas it's kind of like the same thing, like, then why don't you cancel that one?

39:21

If you gonna do the same thing game where you run around using your

39:23

powers on either the environmental or other people, the same thing does good?

39:28

Guys? That add one thing for you got rid of it. Why do you keep doing that thing? And I think the thing is this is coming

39:34

in on a clutch time for Marvel and for this type of game because everyone's

39:38

hating on Overwatch because well, they canceled the story version of the game that

39:43

was supposed to that was teased throughout the entire time for Overwatch too, and

39:46

at the same time controversy of like you having to pay a butt ton of

39:52

money for just character outfits and stuff like this. I think if this game

39:55

wants to do better than Overwatch two, because I think we can all agree

40:00

Overwatch two didn't live up to the hype as the first Overwatch game did,

40:04

just because the time it came out and everything that was like promised but didn't

40:08

come out. Say there's a story, do the story doesn't have to be

40:13

a big story, and then don't have everything costs two damn much or else

40:17

people are not gonna play this game. Yeah, Michael transaction only go un

40:22

let your Granda photo online. Michael transactions don't work for everybody. For some

40:27

reason, they figured it out. I don't know why they've the only franchise

40:30

that's figured it out, but they figured it out. I'll probably be waiting

40:32

for marm of nineteen forty three. I'm come on, I don't that says

40:37

twenty twenty five, but he'll might be a twenty twenty seven thing too,

40:42

Kevin, I don't know got the feeling and know what's that's about me?

40:46

Every time you say that, I think about, Okay, she'll be ten,

40:49

she'll be console gaming age. I want to share about console and you

40:52

won't be able to play these games anymore because you'll have to share time and

40:57

equal re actions of okay, you can play it now, now, you

40:59

can play it now. See that that is something our forefathers have to deal

41:02

with because either the kids play video games and adult and adult stuff or or

41:07

vice versus. Maybe maybe maybe the games the kid doesn't Now everybody doesn't.

41:10

You play together and then you have a fun time, and that's why you're

41:15

called a family. Don't give me wholesome. I want to be upset.

41:20

You know, we try to make everything wholesome here. But Kevin, we

41:22

can switch on over back to the normal version of the podcast, perfect timing.

41:27

I mean, hey, the game's got cool art designed for sure,

41:30

and it's got cool posters they have for it, so I'm not mad about that. Yeah, the arts is cool. Even the animation is cool with

41:37

a lot of the Iron Man stuff. And then the black Panther turned into a big tiger, a big big panther, I mean, and the group

41:43

Rocket Rocket team up. That's cool, but that's something I want to spend

41:45

my whole Saturday afternoon, you know. Yeah, And Overwatch can't be a

41:50

time sucker game. If you really want to, like I need that one

41:52

spray or that one skin, I gotta do one hundred matches as doctor Strange

41:57

or aluding the snow more time sucker Overwatch or old school Sims Well, Simms,

42:04

it's not really a time sucker because that's like you're in you you want

42:07

to live in that world. That's that's that's your life, liver, Whereas

42:10

Overwatch is a time sucker because you have to do things to get the skin

42:15

you want, and then you're like, all right, now what do I do? Because you just wasted a one hundred hours to get that skinner?

42:21

The Sims says, I want to build that house. So it's kind of

42:23

like to like when you play Pokemon Go. I finally involved him. All

42:28

right, what next? I don't know what to do? Catch more?

42:30

I guess, so, Kevin, let's switch on over to the Star Wars

42:36

sides of the thing, because it's time for the Bad Batch a breakdown.

42:46

There we go. We got the sound effects finally and hopefully Kevin heard it

42:50

this time. All right, Greg, well appreciate. Well, hey,

42:53

that's why we let you watch the video version of the podcast and the audio

42:57

version, because you get the good audio on your wig podcasts first. Kevin

43:00

might not hear it, but we know you'll hear it. So we are

43:07

in uncharted, uncharted territory for the final season of The Bad Batch. Because

43:13

ain't nobody reviewed these episodes ahead of time. We're getting them as they come.

43:16

Episode nine, called The Harbinger, we'll go to non spoilers first,

43:22

Kevin, but friendly reminder, Hulu and Disney Plus have officially like merged this

43:27

week, so update your Disney Plus and then you can get rid of having

43:30

the Hulu app on your phone or on your console or smart device. I

43:34

just think the last time I tried that, I still had to keep on

43:37

Hulu. Could I have Huluplus live? Mm hmm, so I also had just take me to Hulu, So like, what's the point. Other interesting

43:43

thing with that is, so say one family member pays for Disney Plus and

43:45

you pay for Hulu or Vice versa. You can't combine them because it's got

43:50

to be under the same user name. So you can connect both options in

43:53

both type apps. So if like myself have Hulu from Eric, I can't

43:58

have Hulu on my Disney Plus. Yeah, ours was weird. They kind

44:02

of just we played for we pay for a Hulu Plus Live. They was

44:06

like, all right, now you have the ESPN Plus and Disney Plus two.

44:09

Okay, thank you, thank you. Uh. Also with that comes

44:14

a change to the Disney Plus logo. It's not that bright ass blue anymore.

44:17

It's like a Soulian or something like that, as a little bit of

44:21

a green hinge on it. And we don't hear that Plus Plus click it's

44:25

now a little score theme by our boy Ludvig gordons me. It looks like

44:31

like like the cool green water when you go to the theme park. It's

44:36

kind of, oh, it's died a little bit. It's it's like exotic

44:38

water, you know. It's like it's like a Disney pond. I get

44:42

it. Also, I'm gonna say it again, why isn't the bad batch

44:46

the second spot on the swipey thing on Disney Plus ome page. I had

44:50

to go four over to find it. It was like four or five. No one's going to Disney Plus to watch these that geo documentaries. I do

45:00

sometimes, but then I fall asleep. Yeah, well to fall asleep,

45:02

you don't watch it. To watch it exactly, I need to need to

45:06

come down put some on here. But episode nine was called the Harbinger.

45:12

Kevin, what'd you think about it? Episode? Definitely like we said last

45:17

week, where it felt like last week was the beginning and the end of

45:21

something that's just walking. At the beginning, they're they're figuring out what M counts do. There was a new character introduced, which I was excited to

45:28

see, and it was almost unexpected the way they introduce it. I thought

45:31

it was gonna be a lot more dramatic the way when they when they came

45:35

in. But I still do love how protected they are of Amiga. That

45:40

makes me very happy. They're basically kind of like what was that movie?

45:44

Not My Three Dads? Three three men in a baby. Yeah, that's

45:47

what it feels like, five men in the baby. Mostly Well, even

45:52

though Tech and Echo are never around, but you know what you gotta do. We saw Tech two weeks ago. Don't care anybody so Kevin, we

46:00

can. Well, we'll save this for after we talked about the bad Batchel. There's a breaking crisis. We'll talk about that a little bit. But

46:06

I really enjoyed this episode and what it didn't really move the plot to forward.

46:13

Uh, but I do think wanted reintroduced themes and it kind of like

46:19

with shades of Star Wars Rebels, but we didn't commit to it all the

46:22

way, which was which I think was good to be different a little bit and put it shade to Star Wars Rebels. I like that, that's a

46:28

really really good point to do it. But yeah, I was definitely entertained.

46:32

It wasn't like what was like the second episode while kind of was in

46:35

and out this one, I was like, I was thoroughly, thoroughly, thoroughly entertaining the entire time through. All Right, so we got that boo

46:43

boom boom. Uh. So let's talk about that episode specifically. One A

46:45

Sage Ventris is officially back. You're like, what does that mean? What's

46:50

the Star Wars timeline? It doesn't matter what happens with the Star Wars timeline,

46:54

forget what you know. And it's like we said famously, I think

46:59

multiple times the past, like two weeks or especially when this show's been out

47:01

is books are very low on the total pole when it comes to keeping the

47:06

cannon or not with it. Books are kind of just there to get I

47:09

wanted to get people through, but they don't really mean much. You know,

47:13

they're good times, but unfortunately any happened with if it's cannon or not,

47:19

and we'll know what's cannon when they feel only the side of this can

47:22

so in this, like keV said, we immediately kick it off. We're

47:25

back on Pabu, our favorite island planet, but it's kind of foggy,

47:30

you know, which is kind of a sign of the times of this how the show is going to We're getting darker. Someone pointed out that the posters

47:37

have kind of gotten darker over time for this show, which is dope. With every new episode, and we find out Wrecker and Crosshair say goodbye to

47:45

a fisher person and I just like to say, I like that there's fishing

47:47

poles in Star Wars, which is like, yeah, that makes sense,

47:51

like an old school tech that like would make sense in Star Wars. No.

47:54

I got confused there for a second. I thought that was like it

47:57

was like a time jump I missed, and that was an old Amiga.

48:00

Wait a minute, so they immediately are hanging out with with Hunter. We

48:07

see that Omega is hanging out with Bacher, playing on the beach near a

48:10

cave. Bacher picks up falls two little swamp rats or something. I don't

48:15

know what they were because they're really tardy, leads into the cave. Bacher

48:20

snarls and whimpers because there's something in the cave. It turns out it's a

48:23

ship and it's piloted by one as Sage Ventress. It was dope to get

48:28

her back, kind of looking how she looks like in the Dark Disciple book

48:31

cover, So I kind of think that happens like right after this. Unfortunately,

48:37

but then this episode really kind of turned into like a mini Padawan,

48:42

like a very short mini Padawan like lessoned moment, which was cool between a

48:45

Sage and Omega so happy. Like you said, I said, it was

48:51

kind of unexpected because as soon as she went to the cave, I'm like, okay, we're getting another creature episode. They're gonna have to find a

48:55

big thing and then no, it was a sad un so, oh,

48:59

welcome to That was kind of cool and then, like you said, the

49:04

kind of It's funny though to me, how quickly any Force user just automatically

49:09

clicks into that mentor mentee relationship so quickly? Why is it so hard because

49:15

you were not ready? Yeah, she did act this, she was five

49:17

ten minutes ago, and it was the shade like this is me hinting at

49:21

Rebels, is that this was we're kind of this what happens the whole episode.

49:24

This one was kind of an easier one to recap, is that it

49:29

is shades of Canaan and Ezra and then Canaan and Sabine in Rebels. Whereas

49:34

like Canaan's like I know what's going on, like I'm a relic of the

49:37

old ways, like do it this way right, because that's truly how it

49:40

works. Whereas you know, Canaan then teaches Ezra, then teaches Sabine a

49:45

little bit, and obviously Ahsoka does in a Sosocha show. We didn't get

49:49

that because Asaa says, you know, I'm I'm not a Jedi. I'm

49:52

just I'm not bound by my past. I make my own story, but

49:55

I'm not teaching you. I ain't got time, but you you got on

50:00

my face, kind kind of very very Harrison for it. She's the hair,

50:04

yeah, And it is funny because the entire time they're kind of doing

50:07

her training test and lessons one, which is not falling slipping rock two is

50:13

to get a white blossom from the top the tallest tree. We have my

50:19

three dads that are like, oh, I don't trust you. We know

50:22

who you are, We've seen your record and the Clone Wars and so we

50:24

kind of get like a cool callback to like the Assage of Clone Wars where

50:28

she was kind of flirty with the Clones and like there's one episode I think

50:34

when in the underground Bunker when she like stabs the Clone then kisses him and

50:37

it takes away the lightsaber. She definitely is a she's she's a bunch of

50:45

fun, A bunch of fun could say. But she sends Omega out on

50:49

the second test that way. She knows Recer Hunter Cross there. They all

50:53

want to confront her. They have a good fight, and it literally is

50:57

Omega coming back and doing the community meme where everything's on fire and she said,

51:00

why are you choking them? And everything and she's got a yellow lightsaber

51:05

though Assage, So it is really cool that maybe you're a kyrocrystal change.

51:08

Maybe she got a new one, or maybe she changed it a little bit

51:12

too. That kind of doesn't I mean, any dark sided hoesh user they

51:16

make their crystal believe, which is why it's red. So if she does

51:21

any kind of healing in the forest, that's kind of interesting that it wouldn't

51:23

be read anymore. Yeah, So then Ventres essentially takes Omega to her final

51:29

test. This is connect with nature on the open ocean. We have a

51:31

scene where my three dads using the scopes checking on Omiga. Ventures senses it

51:37

and stares at him through the binoculars, and the record goes, how she

51:40

know we're watching That doesn't make any sense. That was pretty funny when she

51:45

looked at him. Omega is not connecting with the ocean and all through the

51:50

force. So Venturess shows how she can do it with like some manta rays

51:53

that in the ocean that we're green. She accidentally wakes up a bigger fish,

51:58

and this's where head of the line, there's always bigger fish. It's

52:00

always I thought the water animation looked great in this episode and just a sign

52:07

of the times of like shows and movies can really nail down water animation,

52:10

So which is great. What what is it with Star Wars and tentacal monsters?

52:16

The tentacles freak me out. Man, it's that Kaiju stuff. You

52:20

know, we're we had the forever ago, the electric Kaiju type monster.

52:24

I forget what was called off the top of my head, but there's always

52:28

that love for like kind of the old school stuff that inspired Star Wars. So I did love that sweet movie. She pulled in the water. Then

52:34

when I try to grab her and she kind of like swim around it and

52:36

cut it off. Yeah, I like some underwater lights. Then cans like,

52:39

I gotta go to watch the kit Fisto episodes of Clone Wars where it's

52:42

all underwater. Uh. And then uh, I just wanted to mention this

52:47

Venturess's hair gets slicked back because they're in the ocean. I was like,

52:52

man, that looks cool. That's a cool look for Ventures. She needs to keep that instead of that weird half bob she got going on your hair.

53:00

Wow, do you use any product now? It's just the force Borok

53:06

Force. But then eventually the batch kind of welcomed Venturess in a little bit

53:08

and if it was rebels, she would stay with them on Pabu. But

53:13

it's not. It is a bad Batch where things are kind of gray, everything's left and right. There is no like, oh, these are our

53:19

heroes, we're banning with. Assage goes off to finish her story and potentially,

53:24

based on what the book says, could be the last time we see

53:27

a Sage for sure, and animation, but most likely overall in Star Wars.

53:31

And she tells them that the Pabu isn't as safe as any think it

53:35

is. So there's that too interesting. I swear if they come to Papa

53:39

and kill all the clones, I'll be really And I did think there was

53:43

gonna be like a one more stinger thing or something, but there wasn't.

53:46

It like ended quietly and then it was darkness. I was like, here's

53:52

something. No, no wipe, Okay, we're just getting the credits,

53:54

Okay, I like Emperor left. But so now we have six episodes to

54:04

go, so we'll see what happens. And we got like four weeks ago.

54:07

There will be some double episodes as well in there, but the next

54:09

think we have two. Yes, So I'm excited because that means if it's

54:13

two. It won't be good. So identity crisis and point of no return

54:19

on the name of the episode, which that don't sound good. That don't

54:22

sound good. It's all I'm saying. It's definitely reaching a point where it's

54:28

like they've done they've done a better, better pacing this year than they have

54:31

previous years with this first of all, because we've seen a point where it

54:36

where it's like, I think we've reached We've reached like the second uh climbing

54:40

you're in school, you do the rising action thing. We've reached that second

54:45

one, and we're kind of coming down a little bit, so we're not going back up again soon. So it's scary right down here we go.

54:51

But Kevin, we're not done with the podcast yet because thanks to you,

54:54

the people, the people, we won't be cursed after this episode hashtag crisis

55:00

cursed. Because Florence Pugh has officially posted first footage from the set of The

55:07

Thunderbolts. They're officially filming. It will come out next year, who knows,

55:10

but we know that Yelena, she gonna have short hair in that movie.

55:15

Yeah, Florence, people's looking. She's wanted to bob great yes,

55:21

I mean any any look, Florence Pugh can pretty much pull off. You

55:24

know, I don't know how, how and when, because we know massage

55:30

is kind of noise, you know, before a period piece is some big

55:35

deal. Okay, it's an osaka ah Soka flashback. You know they gotta

55:39

get all on a green blat back again as young Asoka. So also,

55:45

uh so in case you don't know what we're talking about or you catch this.

55:49

A couple of days later, Florence Pugh posts on our social Marvel Studios

55:52

has reposted it too, just her kind of showing off. Obviously, it's

55:58

the set, but it's not the set. It's everything but the set essentially

56:01

of Thunderbolts. But it is cool. While they're on filming production for Thunderbolts.

56:07

The actual sound stage they have has like Captain America post it says,

56:09

only you can prevent spoilers. I got excited too that at one part where

56:15

she's talking to somebody in a red in a gray jacket and from behind it

56:19

it's like it's like it's Win Win. It's older so like Bucky, Oh

56:22

no it's not him. Yeah, well so Tenderically the movie is supposed to

56:25

come out May twenty twenty five. We knew stevenyn was gonna play Century,

56:30

but he dropped out. Other people have joined the roles. We'll see what

56:35

happens. But hey, it's starting filming so early. Is we get a

56:38

trailer January? Maybe? Well Christmas somewhere in the December, January, February.

56:45

Yes. Also, people, a lot of people I saw this over

56:49

the week or this past couple of days. Is just because Bucky Barnes isn't

56:52

in Captain America A New World Order doesn't mean like they don't like each other

56:59

or anything. He's in his own movie. He's in Thunderbolts. It can't

57:01

be another thing too. There's been a lot of Anthony Mackie slander because he

57:06

refused to do something with a fan. But if you follow Anthony Mackie,

57:09

he doesn't do it. That's that's something he does. He said it a

57:13

million times. It's nothing new, So stop it, yes, just stop

57:16

it. We love our cats in America in whatever form said Captain America is,

57:21

even if it's a cat. We could get that one day. And

57:23

I'm I for one am excited not just for Captain America but the next slate

57:27

of Marvel movies next year, because I feel like they're gonna have a lot

57:30

more of Kevin foggy and not stupid. Yeah, and I think also the

57:35

lull, like we're kind of not to say, like we're in the lull

57:37

right now. Deadpool Wolverine will be good, but it's not like the Marvel

57:42

where boom boom boom boom, fire and all cylinders. Deadpoole will be good,

57:45

but it won't be like, all right, here's this movie that connects

57:47

to that movie, that connects to this movie that we're paying off in that

57:51

movie. You know. I think Deadpool will be the fodder that make you

57:53

think, oh crap, we don't get any mortal next year. Ready for

57:57

another one now? Because even when even the lesson ones, well I think

58:00

they're fine, but the lack luster, overly performing ones that we've gotten in

58:05

the past, even though you know one came out, one wouldn't like make

58:09

him out. They're like it too much. But you were excited for four,

58:12

you know what I mean, So you're still excited for the next one. After that point you'll be like, oh, well, that was it.

58:16

That was it till next year. So she broke do do it?

58:20

My hands, but only time until Obviously we'll probably get a couple more things

58:24

for Thunderbolts since they allowed that to be posted, So expect maybe Shabbatian stand

58:30

doing something in the next week or so. Maybe we'll get like a little

58:32

civil orl during D twenty three and then not a trailer, maybe like that

58:36

thing they do like no One's set and pick an interviews or just literally take

58:38

that concept art we had from forever ago, just do it with the actual

58:43

actors, you know, exactly, something like that me something you never know

58:45

once again. Twenty twenty five Year of the Nerd. You thought twenty twenty

58:49

four was nerdy, It's gonna be even nerdy in twenty five. Twenty five

58:52

Year of the Nerd. Baby Hell yeah, but you can see everything we

58:55
