0:16
there's a chance. By Lindsey Dewey.
0:18
A for effort you do. A
0:21
for effort.
0:23
What's the
0:23
top of rainbow? The commercial

0:30
Man, let's go for Wasp.
0:33
I feel like it. Can

0:38
I got a two left. Mister Reilly?
0:41
Man in the Lost Was
0:43
that a broccoli man?
0:45
I looked like a burger. Just like, what other
0:47
weird character can we just throw in this quantum
0:49
realm? After a
0:50
while, they just kinda threw whatever stuck at
0:52
a wall. They're like, okay. A fork. A fork that
0:54
talks Yes. Jeff Lundness looks
0:56
over across the writer's room table, someone's eating broccoli,
0:58
and he goes, Oh, okay.
1:01
Yeah. I'll be king in this movie. Probably.
1:06
But no. Oh my god. This is like got Veggie
1:08
Tales all of a sudden. I was not prepared for
1:10
my business.
1:12
Veggie, your religious allegory
1:14
dreams have come true. Veggie tale. Of
1:16
the MCU. Oh, no. Oh,
1:18
is the quantum realm metaphor for Jesus
1:21
Christ? We wanna thank more VPN
1:23
for sponsoring our show today. More on
1:25
them in a bit. Welcome back to New Rockstars
1:27
last week, Boss and I saw And this
1:29
week, you all will be seeing Guatamania. No
1:31
more ducking and dodging social media for leaks.
1:34
Everyone I mean, everyone has already
1:36
started releasing their reviews, star ratings,
1:38
their letter box rankings, and we haven't
1:40
done our non spoiler review for you yet. We
1:42
haven't done our New Rock star. So today, we'll be
1:44
our non spoiler review of Quantumania. This
1:47
is inside Marvel New Rockstar's Weekly Marvel
1:49
reaction show. I'm Jessica Clement. And here with
1:51
me, It's Eric Boston MT. Hello.
1:53
It was Jessica. Oh, it's
1:56
so nice. Now we could do our review. Everyone's
1:58
waiting on their
1:58
hotcakes. The opinions are mixed out
2:00
there, the rotten tomatoes score a bit low.
2:02
I
2:03
think that
2:03
score will be higher, though.
2:04
Yes. Yes. It absolutely will. It's gonna be.
2:07
Like, you guys have seen it? I have seen it. So,
2:09
like, I'm so excited to hear, like, your spoiler
2:11
free review because, like, I I'm dying
2:13
to know. I know nothing. I've, like, I
2:15
know like that the reviews have been mixed, but haven't really
2:17
read any reviews because I I've been sort of hiding
2:20
from all the
2:20
reviews. I said this for
2:22
Wakanda forever. And I say it again,
2:25
my review. Take it with
2:27
a grain of salt. Everybody has different opinions
2:29
on movies. And I don't think I will ever
2:31
sway anyone's jurisdiction in movies
2:34
because I watch the worst movies there ever
2:36
has
2:36
been, and I've lost my ass.
2:39
I watch I watch my favorite genre
2:41
as horror. Do you know how bad horror
2:43
movies can get? I love every single one
2:45
of
2:45
them.
2:46
I would know. I'm too soft on the inside
2:48
for horror movies. Okay. So like I
2:50
said earlier, Boss and I will be giving you the best
2:52
non spoiler review to hit twenty twenty three on the
2:54
new rockstar's channel because it's the first one.
2:56
And when I say non spoiler, I mean
2:58
it because empty. Again,
3:00
my sweet sweet baby angel hasn't seen it
3:02
yet. So there will be no mistakes and
3:05
no spoilers from Jerica today.
3:07
That's me
3:07
embarrassing. Jerica. And
3:09
you love
3:10
Jerica. I love that so much, Jerica.
3:12
Alright. Bye. It's
3:15

3:23
josh And then I was like, I forget
3:25

3:26
first name is Eric and not boss. Jessica
3:28

3:32

5:09
MT. Are you ready to give us our question?
5:11
Yes. I have questions for you guys because
5:13
I have no idea what this
5:15
movie is gonna be about, but you do. I'm gonna need
5:17
you guys to first, give me your spoiler free
5:19
review of this movie because I gotta
5:22
know how you guys feel about this
5:24
movie. Okay. Well, first of all, like, do you think do you
5:26
think this movie was a solid ending to the Ant Man
5:28
trilogy, like, to start off? I
5:29
don't think I wouldn't call it the ending to the
5:31
Ant Man trilogy. I would
5:33
call it, like, his it, you
5:34
know, there's such a big future. I
5:36
would still say for many of
5:38
these characters. Yeah.
5:41
Well, I think in regards to, like, Okay.
5:44
They're only making three movies. Kymel, it
5:47
comes in threes. We all know that. Guardians
5:49
of Galaxy is done after the third. We do three.
5:51
Thor gets his three. Everybody I don't think it's three.
5:53
Everybody gets three. So if it is
5:55
officially done with the third
5:58
one, I
6:01
don't know if
6:03
I'm satisfied with it, being
6:05
the final way to end it
6:07
because if felt more like
6:09
he wasn't the star of the show. It felt
6:12
like everything was a star. It's kind
6:14
of how I feel like they're gonna approach
6:16
armor wars or not? Is
6:18
it no. It's it's
6:21
Captain America New World
6:22
Order. There's so many new people in
6:24
it. So many cast And I'm
6:27
like, okay.
6:28
So what is Captain America gonna do?
6:30
It's simple, single. Thank
6:31
you. So I feel like there's just like a lot
6:33
to explore, and we see that in the trailer. And
6:36
I I it it feels
6:38
like I want another movie on top of it now.
6:40
Jess is totally right. It like, Though
6:43
the feeling of seeing this movie, it feels like the
6:45
beginning of something, not the end of anything.
6:47
Like, I mean, that is all tied in
6:49
with King. And, yeah, I'm I'm being very
6:51
careful
6:51
on, like, how I talk about this because I don't wanna frame
6:53
your opinion going into this movie, but, like,
6:55
into you, I like, I want you and anybody
6:58
watching this. I've seen the movie yet. To have like
7:00
a a fair set of expectations
7:03
going into it. And I think
7:05
what you're gonna find is like keep an open
7:07
mind about like what is in the future,
7:09
for this franchise and all the cool things that
7:11
are being set up because, like, man,
7:14
Kang is just so great. And Jonathan majors
7:16
is he plays this role
7:18
so well. He there's, like, a broad
7:21
range of anger. You see him at his,
7:23
like, angriest where he just loses control, but
7:25
most of the movie It's What he described
7:27
is no moves wasted. Like, he's just so
7:29
calculated about the way he shows Zynga and
7:31
you could see it boiling just
7:33
beneath the surface when he's talking to people and
7:35
he's just like, maintaining control, but, like, he's
7:37
like, what I'm trying
7:39
to tell you is, you
7:41
know, he's he's just so good. Oh,
7:44
I
7:44
see. Oh my god. I agree
7:46
with you overall. And I also think just as
7:48
we remembered Wakanda forever was like the
7:50
farewell package to the phase four, this
7:52
is the opening to phase five. So
7:55
maybe that's why it feels like there's it's
7:57
a big introduction -- Right. -- is
7:59
because it's the introduction to the phase five. And
8:01
ultimately, we know it ends with Secret
8:03
Wars and Kang's
8:04
Dynasty. So it's like -- Yeah. --
8:06
holy crap. Holy crap.
8:07
Right. We know that's where it's all going. We know that's
8:09
where it's all going. But but I
8:11
think empty, to answer your initial question,
8:13
like, I've I've been able to see the movie twice.
8:16
And the first time I saw the movie, I saw it with Jessica
8:18
and I love that screen because I
8:19
mean, just watching movies with Jessica's
8:21
amazing. That's so much fun. I'm so
8:23
dope. But I think she and I felt similar. We thought
8:25
little mix. We saw it in this press screening
8:27
room. Where the opinions were clearly mixed. I
8:29
think that's reflecting the Rotten Tomato score
8:31
right now. I think we liked a lot of it,
8:33
but some of it felt a little too, like, surrealist,
8:35
Alison, Wonderland, Dee, to us. Like,
8:38
there was some uncanny valley moments where
8:40
we're just like, I don't know if this is really working for
8:42
us right now. Mhmm. And
8:45
but when I saw this second time. I just felt
8:47
like a, you know, a different group of people. And,
8:49
like, I think they were having similar reactions,
8:52
but because I was already past that first wave
8:54
of it, I could just kind of, like, ease back
8:56
and enjoy the good things about it.
8:58
And I think that's gonna be how most people
9:00
see this movie. think they're gonna I think they're gonna
9:02
enjoy it more than the critics did overall.
9:04
Because it it doesn't I had
9:06
I had very high expectations going into this movie,
9:08
and I think now that expectations have been lowered
9:11
by the red tomato
9:11
score, I think people will go in with, a lower
9:13
expectations and probably enjoy it. Like,
9:15
so, like, just like, you mentioned Jonathan
9:18
Major's performance. Like, so comparing
9:20
the king that we saw from Loki to
9:22
this cane that we see in Quantumania.
9:25
How like, are we I
9:27
know a similar performances or, like because
9:29
it's a different
9:30
variant. Like, does he provide, like, at different
9:32
performance here. They that
9:35
that was honestly my and
9:37
I think this is what everyone a very common
9:39
thing has been said for people that have seen it.
9:41
For me, and it's not only because I'm obsessed
9:43
with Jonathan Majors. I want to marry that.
9:46
He is a phenomenal actor. And
9:50
they I think which is so insane.
9:52
I don't think they could have got anyone else
9:55
because he is such a well
9:57
trained actor that it wasn't it didn't
9:59
feel like he who remains from
10:00
Loki. And I was like
10:01
-- Mhmm. -- his cadence the way he even
10:03
carries himself, the demeanor because I rewatched
10:06
the finale Loki recently I
10:08
was like I was re watching all of the Disney
10:10
plus series
10:11
for,
10:11
like, three years ago. And I was
10:13
like, he's so fun. He's genuinely
10:16
like, I've been here forever. I'm old.
10:18
I'm done. So let me tell you, like,
10:20
grow up and get over it. And
10:22
this king does not have that same energy.
10:24
And I was like, this is Jonathan Majors delivering
10:28
a performance of a lifetime
10:30
with the body of creed Oh,
10:32
yes. I'm obsessed
10:34
with them.
10:35
I'm I'm biased though. I'm Helibiase. I'm
10:37
Helibiase when it comes to And hopefully, everyone
10:39
after seeing this movie will be Helibiase because he
10:41
is -- Yeah. -- he is one of the best actors of
10:43
our generation, I think, right now. And
10:46
he is perfectly cast as Ken. And
10:48
you can see it in the theatrical back background
10:50
of Jonathan Majors. I I like
10:52
to compare it to Shakespeare. Like,
10:55
the way he played he remains was, like,
10:57
puck from midsummer night's street. He
10:59
was a mission to this guy who's hopping all around
11:01
that office, who's, like, giggling through it all. He
11:03
has kind of an immortal quality to him.
11:06
Whereas in this, the the king who's
11:08
trapped in quantum realm is like
11:10
Julius Caesar. He's this
11:12
Napoleonic figure who's exiled on
11:14
his Elba. Who just feels so betrayed.
11:17
It's almost like Julius Caesar
11:19
if he was a ghost after Bruce stabbed him
11:21
in the back. What kind of monologue would Julius
11:23
Caesar give? I think that's
11:25
Oh. You don't
11:31
think they don't still have nerve endings. Okay.
11:42
I'll point you one thing. He says that in
11:44
the movie. He says that in the movie. He said You
11:48
just go, Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. You just
11:50
go. You see what? I'm a point Hang
11:53
takes off his shoes and steps on a LEGO. It
11:55
it
11:55
sucks. Pick
11:57
up your damn toys. Jessica
11:59
Shusters. It's almost the take engine.
12:01
That'd be so crazy. Oh,
12:03
my god. Yeah, just to kinda give
12:06
you a a sense of the the spectrum of different
12:08
kings between he remains in
12:10
the king in this movie. Just very
12:12
completely different human beings in the way
12:14
that they move, like I mean, this
12:17
king moves really just his fingers. For,
12:19
like, the the first half of the movie, just
12:21
at which, you know I mean,
12:23
I'll leave that to your imagination, Jordan.
12:26
I have. I've
12:27
Oh. It's back to me. I'm sure he has a lot
12:29
of practice, you know what I'm saying. Oh.
12:32
Just when when he called me back.

16:16
So I have a question here. So which
16:18
MCU projects should I
16:20
watch to maybe, like, appreciate this movie
16:22
the most? And, like, what movie should I watching
16:25
to prepare for this one
16:26
basically.
16:26
Boss, you know what I was thinking? Yeah.
16:29
What? You know what I was thinking personally? And
16:31
okay. And maybe watch Boss's breakdown, but definitely
16:33
watch my Indian explained because it all makes
16:35
sense. I think people should watch multiverse of madness.
16:37
Oh, yeah. You know? think
16:39
it's a
16:39
very fun.
16:40
Yeah. Not like completely required. But
16:42
think of once you see the movie, go back to
16:44
multiverse of Madness, and then
16:47
really devour
16:48
it. That's mine. That's
16:49
my responsibility. That's a really good pig.
16:52
I mean I think
16:54
I think Loki definitely watch just
16:57
to have that comparison point from he remains
16:59
to this kang. I think it's going to be extremely
17:01
relevant to watch the six episodes of
17:04
Loki. If you don't have time to watch the six episodes of Loki,
17:06
watch the finale of Loki.
17:08
Right. Or do you want the breakdowns? From
17:10
Eric.
17:10
Yeah. You can just watch certain breakdowns. Yeah.
17:13
I go to observe breakdowns all the time when
17:15
I need to go to like a specific thing where I'm
17:17
like, I don't know if I know
17:19
this, I go to the exact spot on one
17:21
of our break
17:21
yet. To go see if someone else did it.
17:24
I'm like, and then credit you guys. I credit
17:26
you guys BLOCE is probably more important than
17:28
watching or Ant Man in the Wasp.
17:30
Because I think the way there's
17:32
some, like, interesting, like, You
17:34
might even be a bit more confused if you watch him
17:37
in the was first, especially with the character of Janet.
17:39
Like, just did you feel this way? There's some
17:41
step words like, Oh, Janet, why
17:43
are you mad about this now when you weren't mad about
17:45
this? I don't even
17:48
don't start. But
17:51
but they do a good job. They do a good job
17:53
making this movie work even
17:55
for people who don't remember ant manoring it in the
17:57
wasp
17:57
or, you know, or people who hadn't seen it. You
18:00
know. I wish Okay. That I think that's,
18:02
like, the interesting part is compared
18:04
to lot of other MCU properties. I
18:06
don't think you really like you said, I don't think you
18:08
need to see the first and second one. Can just jump
18:10
to this this
18:11
one, quantum mania. Mhmm.
18:13
And I think you'll be, like, lost a little
18:15
bit, but again, we don't know anything
18:17
about the quantum realm. So it's like
18:19
everything that we learn or like
18:21
most of
18:22
everything. So a lot of what we learn is in
18:24
this movie. So I think it's like kind of a clean slate
18:26
for us. Yeah. And you know, I think this
18:28
movie absolutely explores the quantum realm
18:30
and you learn I mean, you do learn about
18:32
the people of it quite a bit, and
18:34
they're like their conflicts. But there's still
18:37
about, like, the general nature of
18:39
the quantum realm in the history of
18:41
it, is still a complete,
18:43
you know, Like, but that's I would
18:45
say that's the case in every Marvel movie. Like, they kinda
18:47
give you a glimpse and they explore the place, but they don't
18:49
give you the full rules of anything
18:51
ever. Mhmm. It's true. And I I like it because,
18:54
like, I like when, like, they give us little something.
18:56
It's like, oh, we'll go back to the that place
18:58
later. And I hope that we get back to the quantum
19:00
realm more in as future
19:02
movies progress. Because I just I think that
19:04
the place looks very visually appealing
19:07
and very I I like the, like, weird vibe
19:09
of everything, especially the broccoli man. Now that
19:11
I know that exists. My god.
19:13
I need to see more broccoli people in the MCU
19:15
other than the
19:15
whole world. You're gonna hate it. You're gonna hate it once you
19:18
see what the broccoli man does. Oh,
19:20
no.
19:20
What are the broccoli? Okay. Jeez. I'm so I
19:22
don't wanna Next question. One of the broccoli I think
19:25
broccoli
19:25
man was there on January sixth. Is that what we're
19:27
seeing?
19:28
I think he started
19:29
January sixth in the quantum realm, which I didn't know
19:31
they knew about. Because they march
19:33
for a while. But,
19:36
yeah. But, yeah, how many major
19:38
plot points would you say happens that affect
19:40
phase five and six in this
19:41
movie? I
19:42
mean, I gotta watch the movie again to really
19:44
think I mean, there's at
19:46
least, like
19:48
and what would you say, Jeff? There's at least, like, four
19:50
there's at least, like, four that they're all kinda
19:52
combined. I mean, I don't know. I would say,
19:55
this is a pretty big deal. Like, these
19:57
like, the way this movie ends, so
20:00
it's very very critical
20:02
the way it sets up. I don't think you can skip this
20:04
one going
20:05
forward. Like -- Okay.
20:06
-- there's certain MC movies that I
20:08
we and New Relic started to say you can't skip any
20:10
of them, but, you know, average viewers
20:12
might be
20:13
like, yeah, you can skip like widow. Right? But,
20:15
like -- Right. -- this one you absolutely cannot.
20:17
You absolutely Yeah. It it it definitely feels
20:19
like the flash in that manner. Like,
20:21
this year's gonna have, like, such crucial
20:24
movies to both universes. Yeah.
20:26
It just feels like one of those movies that, like, if you
20:28
want to, like, enjoy King Dynasty
20:30
or, like, understand what is going
20:32
on in the future of the MCU this
20:34
introduction of King is like the Primo
20:37
place to do it as far as can tell from just
20:39
the marketing. So it makes me happy
20:42
to know that, like, this is like the the official
20:44
start of phase five. I'm very excited. But yeah.
20:46
And, like, how many people would you say live in the quantum
20:49
realm? If you guys
20:49
could, like, just do an
20:52
estimated number. It's kinda I mean, I would
20:54
say in the millions. Right? I mean, we see it from
20:56
just when the trailers alone, there are multiple
20:58
cities. I don't know. Do you count the quantum
21:00
not like
21:00
kings, like soldiers, do they count
21:03
as people? don't really know what they are.
21:06
Living life forms? Even
21:09
we see. Oh.
21:11
Like a
21:11
little bit. Right?
21:13
There's a in the trailer, especially, it's
21:15
like you see a bunch of things. This movie redefines
21:18
what a life form is really
21:20
because you'll see when you watch it, it's like, oh,
21:22
I didn't realize that thing was a life So
21:24
there's, like and the sentence is,
21:27
like, the animals aren't just as smart as, like,
21:29
the people are -- Yeah. -- down there. So That's
21:31
why I was, like, with the broccoli man, it's, like, oh,
21:33
it's a broccoli. That's okay. So
21:38
is it a person? Do they like,
21:40
is there, like, a language barrier? I don't know if this is but,
21:42
like, is there, like, a language barrier between,
21:44
like, the human people and the people of the quantum
21:47
realm? Or do people just speak English automatically?
21:49
Yeah. I don't wanna say, but I
21:51
will say, like, thematically to this movie
21:53
communication is a is an interesting theme
21:56
in this movie, both
21:58
to, like, where Scotland begins the story
22:00
and, like, his journey into the
22:02
Quantumania, like, I think communication, if I could
22:04
sum up the theme of this movie, it's communication.
22:06
Because one of my favorite deleted scenes from
22:08
Batman two is, like, this when Janet's,
22:11
like, talking to this weird quantum creature
22:13
with her, like, voice machine. Like, she
22:15
it's like a translator that translates to the weird
22:18
lourbond realm language.
22:21
And I was like, wow, that's super neat. Like, I wonder,
22:23
like, if that's gonna what factor into
22:25
this next
22:26
movie? Like, if there's a language barrier there. Yeah.
22:28
So yeah. I mean, here's one thing. Like,
22:30
I don't wanna be too negative on
22:32
this movie. I think the Rotten Tomato critics
22:34
are already doing a good enough job at that. But I
22:36
think go into this movie expecting something that's
22:39
pretty silly. It is like imagine
22:41
the first time you saw the wizard of Oz and how silly
22:43
it is when Dorothy goes to Oz, you got talking
22:45
trees, You got a yellow brick road.
22:47
There's a witch trying to kill you. There's a scarecrow
22:49
that talks. They all sing the same song with
22:51
different verses again and again.
22:54
It's wild. They go to a a Emerald
22:56
City where they all get, like, polished and
22:58
the horses change colors. That's kind
23:00
of what the feeling is here. It's like it's
23:03
also very out of wonderland and it's Sereal.
23:05
It's meant to be surreal. So, like, if you
23:07
go with that expectation and then you just kinda
23:09
can let go of things that you might normally cringe
23:11
at, I think you might really enjoy this movie.
23:14
I think the humor is really great. I think
23:16
it lives up to the to the jokes of
23:19
of the first two movies. The Gags are really
23:21
great. The dialogue's super funny.
23:23
I think what it misses for the first
23:25
two AML movies is that kind of small scale
23:28
madcap energy that I really
23:30
liked at the first
23:30
weekend. It was just they took place in San Francisco
23:33
and they're just kinda running around and
23:35
I like that. And I and I got a miss
23:37
like that
23:37
too. This movie does not have that. This movie
23:40
is way more epic than that. Like and that that is
23:42
a little bit of a bummer because, like, I did like you
23:44
said, like, I love that the the ex con team
23:46
and, like, like, them doing the
23:48
heists and stuff, like, on, like, the
23:50
normal human plane. Like, that that's super great.
23:52
But I also, like, you again, like, you pointed out,
23:55
I love weird shit. Like, weird shit is my
23:57
bread and butter. I like like
23:59
cool visuals and, like and at the
24:01
end of the day, films are like basically
24:03
astronaut films. Where they just,
24:05
like, travel to different places.
24:07
And, like, this is, like, the ultimate end goal that
24:09
we've been teased at since the first end of first
24:12
ant man film. This quantum realm. So,
24:14
like, get getting to journey there and,
24:16
like, see what's below in the basement
24:18
of the MCU essentially. Is so
24:20
super exciting to me. Like, so I am very,
24:23
very, very amped to just analyze
24:26
the quantum realm up into already want this movie
24:28
on Disney
24:28
Plus. Like alright. Just to put it on Disney Plus already.
24:31
I I need it on Disney Plus. You're
24:32
gonna have to wait eight months. Eight
24:34
months, like, a month. Eight
24:37
to nine months, like a baby. You guys,
24:40
I think I'm too afraid of also
24:42
spoiling more to this movie. I think we're gonna
24:44
cap it there for the review of Antman
24:46
and Los That's it for this episode
