1:05

back everybody to another episode of the Weekly Planet,

1:07

where we talk movies and comics and TV shows.

1:09

My name is James. My name is Mr. Sunday.

1:11

And with me is always my co-host Nick Mason.

1:14

James is doing something. He's making some sort

1:16

of gesture. No, I thought you were going

1:18

to clap a mosquito or something. No, what

1:20

are you doing? I'm just just cradling the

1:22

microphone, but not fully just holding the essence

1:25

of it. That's yeah, that's the vibe

1:27

I got. Like you were trying to like

1:29

summon the power of podcasting. Like generate the

1:31

energy we need to podcast. Yeah, man. And

1:33

we really do need it. So if you

1:35

could keep at that. Just keep doing it.

1:38

That's how that works in that show, isn't

1:40

it? They just hold a hold a pose

1:42

for 40 minutes or whatever. Yeah. And they

1:44

blast a big guy who steps out of

1:46

the way. That's Dragon Ball Z. That's right.

1:48

Yeah. We're going to blast a big

1:50

guy in the big guys Hollywood. That's right. Well, we

1:52

are actually got some big news this week, Mason. We're

1:54

going to talk about some delays over at Sony HQ.

1:58

Do you like Spider-Man movies that are adjacent

2:00

to Spider-Man that don't feature Spider-Man? It's getting delayed,

2:02

one of those. No, I don't like those. The

2:04

more you went into that sentence, the less I

2:06

liked it. You were like Spider-Man movies and I'm

2:08

like, yeah, mostly. Yeah. And then he

2:10

said more stuff and I'm like, Oh no, not mostly. I'm

2:12

glad I didn't say yes immediately because I would've looked quite

2:15

the fool. That's true. You'd said all that

2:17

stuff and I went, yeah, I like that. Yuck. You'd

2:19

have to quit. I would have to quit. That's right. Everything

2:22

you do, not your kids. Yeah, yeah. We're gonna

2:24

trailer for Deadpool and Wolverine. Oh, big trailer. We're

2:26

gonna talk news of 28 years later, the

2:29

sequel to 28 months later, weeks later,

2:32

which is the follow the 28 days later. And

2:34

then we're gonna talk about as the election

2:37

looms, Mason, as the big US election.

2:39

That's not moving for ages. November. What's

2:43

Hollywood? It's been looming since the last election.

2:45

I know. Can you think of

2:47

any moment? Cause we're not in America,

2:49

obviously, but like, boy, we hear about it.

2:51

It's everywhere. We hear about it, boy, it's

2:53

been- In our media. Yeah. People

2:55

yell at us. I cannot think of a single

2:57

minute in the last four years that I haven't

2:59

thought about, that it hasn't been in

3:01

our face. And I've been like, oh, election stuff.

3:04

Lee says one good choice and one bad choice.

3:06

Go get this. Oh, absolutely. No

3:09

doubt there is one good choice and one bad choice.

3:12

Absolutely. I'm laughing, Mason. Oh, yeah.

3:14

I'm laughing cause I'm doing satire.

3:17

You are doing satire, that's right. Then we're gonna talk

3:19

about the fall guys. Just say no, guys. Just different

3:21

types of say no. That's right. What's

3:23

happening there? Talk about the fall guy, which isn't

3:26

out in the US, but it is out in

3:28

other regions in the world, but we'll very clearly

3:30

do a non-spoiler section for those people who are

3:32

interested. That's exactly right. The world has righted itself.

3:34

That's right. And Australia is getting movies slightly before

3:36

America again. Well, it was filmed here, you know?

3:38

Yeah. It was filmed here. Yeah,

3:40

it's all funny. It did

3:42

look exactly like the movie, Anyone But

3:44

You or whatever it's called, which

3:47

was also filmed here. They both also have action scenes

3:49

within the Sydney Harbor. Yeah, okay, right. Just like spinning

3:51

around in a boat. I still haven't gone to that,

3:53

Anyone But You. The new one, if you watch this

3:55

one then? I did watch this one. Oh

3:59

my God. I'm doing my job here. I'm working

4:01

hard. I've just got a note at the Sydney

4:03

Opera House. I'm going to put that in. Okay,

4:06

right. Sydney Opera House, everyone cheer. Oh, the dog's

4:08

here. Hello, Ollie. Hello, Ollie. Ollie, are you here

4:10

to remind me to tell everyone that I was

4:12

on an episode of Who Knew It? with Matt

4:14

Stewart? No! Wow, she

4:16

got for the first time ever. And

4:20

then she left. Yep. Wow, she's ever going

4:22

to do that again. I doubt it. Yeah,

4:24

I doubt it too. Yeah. But she wasn't

4:26

here for that, but it reminded me anyway.

4:28

Yeah, yeah. That I was on an episode

4:30

with the great Mish Witrup and the great

4:32

Cass Page. Oh my god, what a team

4:34

up. The dream team. Yeah. We always call

4:36

ourselves. Yeah. It's a fun podcast with a,

4:38

we do, we do a game. I'm

4:41

supposed to have been on that, but I haven't

4:43

yet. Nice. I delayed it one time, or twice,

4:45

I don't know. It'll come around. Yeah, sure, absolutely.

4:47

You got stuff on, you don't have time to

4:49

make up whimsical names for fish or whatever. I've

4:51

never made up a whimsical anything. That's right. Even

4:54

when I did that dog voice, that was the

4:56

most I could muster. There was nothing. You did

4:58

a dog voice? I

5:00

was also on a podcast, mate. Tell

5:02

me about it. The dream team. Yeah, talk about

5:04

the dream team. It was formerly faux-fault, but now

5:06

it's faux-fault with friends. It's myself and Charlie Clausen,

5:08

where we're just discussing all manner of things. He

5:11

was, it was interested in like the decline in

5:13

comic book movies and pop culture and the soldiers.

5:15

So we got into that, among other things. It's

5:17

a good fun time. I meant to mention it

5:19

last week, but I didn't, but I'm mentioning it

5:21

this week. I also meant to mention mine last

5:23

week, but I forgot. Well, we could have spaced

5:25

this out properly, but we didn't. That's right. We

5:27

could cut this bit. Yeah. And then we could

5:29

announce them next week. That's true. That's a good

5:31

point. Give this whole thing space to breathe. You

5:33

know what I mean? I completely agree, mate. Yeah.

5:35

Wow. Anyway, time codes below if you do want

5:38

to jump to anything in particular. Let's talk about

5:40

Sony delays. For one, the karate

5:42

kid remake. I've written karate kids. Maybe that

5:44

is what it's called. I don't know. Maybe

5:46

it's the karate's kid. Maybe it's like Governor's

5:48

General. Oh, okay. Yeah. Look

5:51

out. It's the karate's kids. How

5:56

many is there? I don't know. I don't know, man. That's

5:59

moving from. December 13th of this

6:01

year to May 30th of next year. You're

6:03

gonna have to wait later for your karate's

6:05

kid. Turned out the kid didn't learn any

6:07

karate. Oh really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my

6:10

god. Showed up unprepared. That's right.

6:13

I'm in a kid's three. So what do you expect? Yeah, well,

6:15

learn your karate. Yeah, that's what I say, mate. I

6:17

could have gotten a very little man to sub

6:19

in, you know? To switch the head or whatever.

6:21

Face replacement. Yeah, that's right. That's something

6:23

that's funny. The movie we're talking about is big on,

6:26

isn't it? They could change it to karate man. Backbelt

6:29

karate man. Yeah, he knows all the moves.

6:31

Oh yeah. Everyone.

6:33

Absolutely. Chop, kick. Yep.

6:37

Slide, sweep. Yeah, sweep, sweep, kick.

6:39

Sure, absolutely. Show you can. Yeah,

6:41

I'm sure you can, absolutely. Which

6:45

is the big spinning kick? That's the, it's not

6:47

that. It's got a very long name that I

6:49

can never remember. Okay, fair enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

6:51

yeah. And oh, this one hurts, Mason. Another Sony

6:53

delay. I just do it. I don't know

6:55

the name. I just do the big helicopter

6:57

spinning kick. Fair enough, yeah. Okay, well I look

6:59

forward to it. We'll gather the local neighborhood kids.

7:02

Line them up and kick them. Yeah, I'm going to, I'm going to helicopter

7:04

kick them. Then you got to beat up a car. Yeah, that's

7:06

right. Oh my God. Craven

7:12

the Hunter, sitting from August 30th

7:14

this year to December 13th. I

7:18

think they're looking for that clear

7:20

run. Absolutely, yeah. That's probably a

7:22

smart move. Absolutely. They

7:24

are looking for no competition whatsoever.

7:27

So the funniest move here would

7:29

be for any other studio to just drop

7:31

anything. I'm looking, okay, so

7:33

what we've got here in December,

7:36

we've got the Mufasa, which is

7:38

the Mufasa. Mufasa. This is a

7:40

Lion King prequel that's

7:42

coming out in December. Okay. We've

7:44

also got, there's an animated movie for Lord of

7:47

the Rings. Oh, yep. Which could do quite well.

7:50

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is coming out December 20th. That

7:52

could just kick the shit out of that. It absolutely

7:54

will, yeah. I have watched some of

7:56

that new Knuckles show with my son who was explaining

7:58

it to you in great detail. He sure was. And

8:02

I know there's a guy and a lady. Yep.

8:04

Somebody got beaten up. Kid Cuddies in it. Kid

8:06

Cuddies in it. Yeah, man. Yeah. Yeah.

8:09

Yeah. Uh, so, I don't know.

8:11

I mean, it's probably a smart move. Somebody cut

8:13

their hair? Yeah. We

8:15

were talking about Robotnik or something. Yeah. Robotnik's

8:18

not in it, spoiler alert. But he's coming

8:20

back. Jim Carrey. He's re-coming out

8:22

of retirement. But yeah, I think

8:24

they're looking for like, Aquaman 2. Or

8:26

even original Aquaman, just leave it. Just leave

8:29

it and see what happens. Absolutely, yeah. Unlike

8:31

the last few Sony spin-offs, which have just

8:33

died immediately. And fair enough, because they're bad.

8:35

Awful. They've made bad movies. Mm-hmm, yeah. But

8:37

they have re-released their Spider-Man movies in cinemas,

8:39

did you see that? I did see that,

8:41

yeah. And apparently they're doing alright,

8:43

considering they've already all come out 20 years

8:45

ago. Yeah. Mm-hmm. So, there you go. They

8:47

look good on the big screen. Can't underline them. Sure, I

8:49

wonder if there's ever been a Spider-Man movie I haven't seen

8:52

on the big screen. No, I've been dragged to all of

8:54

them. I've dragged myself to all of them,

8:56

I should say. Nobody's taken it. I was gonna say who. You

8:59

saw that look in my eye, where it's

9:02

gonna be like, who dragged you? Who in

9:04

your life would drag you? Besides your damn

9:06

self. Sure. More good than bad, though, I would

9:08

say, on those phones, I would say. That's true. Mm-hmm. Anyways,

9:10

hopefully this is more good than bad. Uh-oh. Dead

9:13

to pull and Wolverine you trailer, not

9:15

just a teaser. There's action aplenty. Oh,

9:17

it's action. There's Easter eggs. There's references.

9:20

Oh my god. Apparently also, despite all

9:22

of that, you don't need to watch

9:24

anything else MCU-related to go into this.

9:26

Yeah, yeah. Which I do not believe

9:28

could be true. I'm sure they'll explain

9:30

it and whatever. But who's going into

9:33

this with no knowledge anyway? You couldn't.

9:35

Deadpool guys. What do you mean? Guys

9:37

who love Deadpool. No, I mean no knowledge of the MCU. They're

9:40

saying like, you can see this on its own. It's

9:42

standalone. Deadpool guys. Deadpool guys don't watch the MCU. I

9:44

reckon there are a bunch of Deadpool guys who don't

9:46

watch the MCU. I do not believe

9:48

that. How would they even get the jokes then?

9:50

Because they want to get the jokes. They want to be in

9:52

on the joke. I don't think they do. I

9:55

Think Deadpool has the cadence of comedy. And If

9:57

you know the references, you get the jokes. Replied

10:00

he's just got a rhythm guitar

10:02

of other other other guys. Got

10:06

a dead? I love that. A cool

10:08

guy room blah blah blah exactly what

10:10

10:51

11:04

joint Am and Skeleton is in Old

11:06

Man Logan it's it seems to be

11:09

very void. Old Man Logan Collapsing Universe

11:11

Condoms did you? I said this Wolverine

11:13

is not the Logan Wolverine He said

11:15

by ring T could be a good

11:18

thing because. There's. A

11:20

it be a variance way is like down

11:22

his universe and everybody dies. Or.

11:24

He could be the Logan. Taken out

11:27

of time between the Wolverine and Logan okay,

11:29

she was mama he killed or the X

11:31

Men with his mind. Know. Cited

11:33

killed everybody down or something and he's

11:36

ya know and maybe couldn't sizeable sub

11:38

the should have killed my friend Charles

11:40

exciting shouldn't kill them wrong because he

11:42

went. he went with right off the

11:45

shops there the went off Charles Charles

11:47

you going off chops right now What'll

11:49

I do. With. Alman on him. For.

11:52

The helmet on. i

11:54

thought i would than enough arms but it's

11:56

or to sender neither is professor x's evil

11:58

twin in the comments correct. Yes. So they

12:01

there's a there's some comic panels of them beating

12:03

each other up in the world. So

12:05

that she is a sort of spirit who

12:08

entered into the womb

12:11

when Charles when Charles

12:13

X Davis mother was pregnant

12:15

with him and like formed it like a

12:17

near identical body. And then he was like,

12:19

no, even as a baby, I'm not on

12:21

board with this. And so you'll do with

12:23

her own umbilical cord. And then

12:26

she survived like a spirit survived.

12:28

And eventually regenerated a new body.

12:30

Very vulnerable and basically has all

12:32

of Professor X's powers and

12:34

more. And can walk. Yeah. One of

12:37

the powers. Oh, damn. Did you see

12:39

there appears to be inside the Ant-Man

12:41

head? There appears to be a wheelchair.

12:43

Yeah. So I think I suspect

12:46

she is using a Charles Professor X's

12:48

wheelchair as a throne. And I read

12:50

a thing where like maybe she's killed

12:52

a bunch of them. Oh, yeah. I

12:54

mean, we've seen a bunch of him

12:56

die. He's died several times across many

12:58

movies. Most recently, in a version

13:00

of him died in Doctor Strange. Yeah.

13:02

But his face like torn in

13:04

half. Yeah. His whole head. That was pretty

13:06

good. But yeah, I think it's I think

13:08

it's the Logan Wolverine and they dump him

13:10

back in the timeline. OK. Wipe his memory

13:12

and just put him back. Put him back.

13:14

OK, sure. And that's fun. There's

13:17

a scene. I don't know if you saw

13:19

it where Wolverine is fighting Deadpool. And the

13:21

choreography is exactly the same. Spider-Man 1. The

13:24

original where he's fighting Flash. It's

13:26

the same choreography. It is. Identical. Unless

13:28

there's been some fun edits there. Sure.

13:30

Then by. Well, even then, even

13:32

then, Mason. The efforts been made hasn't it? Someone's

13:34

made that effort. Maybe they're not involved with the

13:36

production of this movie, but they certainly made an

13:38

effort, haven't they? And also in the old Man

13:41

Loven comic, there's a couple of giant skeletons. There's

13:43

a giant Loki skeleton as well. It's Skellington, but

13:45

I apologize. The Doctor

13:47

Strange portal. There is. That's true. Does that

13:49

mean a Doctor Strange? Or does it just mean one of

13:51

those Doctor Strange rings? I reckon it might

13:53

be Wong. Oh, I think

13:55

it was Wong. Yeah, I would prefer Wong

13:58

to Doctor Strange. Madison. Oh,

14:00

would you prefer Wong to show up than Doctor Strange

14:02

because I would prefer to see Wong I would prefer

14:04

to see Wong, I'll show you Yeah

14:08

Does he be there? Doctor Strange would

14:10

be there, lecturing him about the blood don't mess

14:12

with the multiverse. You messed with the multiverse Doctor

14:14

Strange Yeah man, you did a Spider-Man on everybody.

14:16

You made everybody all see all the Spider-Men at

14:19

once. I didn't want to see that Right.

14:22

Dog Volga. Yeah dog fool.

14:25

Oh, I didn't say dog fool. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. How about

14:27

this? Here's a question for you. Would you prefer this

14:29

to be prefer this to be a New

14:32

variant of Wolverine that we haven't seen.

14:34

Yep, or an existing one. Oh Because

14:37

I feel like It

14:39

was like motion. It's more emotionally resonant if

14:42

it's an existing Wolverine in it Good,

14:44

there might also be more than one existing Wolverine

14:46

because the Logan is sort of ties in Yeah,

14:49

Logan might also be from a the

14:52

Logan universe also might be a completely

14:54

separate universe from the rest of the

14:56

X-Men universes in that it is sort

14:58

of more of a bare-bones universe. Yeah,

15:00

it's It isn't all the

15:02

colorful adventures of the X-Men. It was just

15:05

it's just some guys with Quite

15:08

rudimentary powers. You know one the guys

15:10

from X-Men Yeah But even like a

15:12

more rudimentary because if you remember that

15:14

movie there's you know We see their

15:16

X-Men comics and when Logan says well,

15:18

it didn't really happen the way. Yeah

15:20

So and we never really see professor

15:23

X do anything Particularly

15:25

spectacular he can only do like those mental

15:27

blasts that upset everyone. He can't really do

15:29

you never see him do it That's what

15:31

he did at his school. Yeah, I think

15:33

so Hey kids check this out

15:36

I Think

15:39

yeah, so I I was I mean

15:41

and obviously he's he's very old in

15:43

that movie and and you know He's

15:46

got some some mental issues. Yeah, but

15:48

I'm I got the impression maybe

15:50

from that movie that that's he's never had the ability

15:52

to you know Freeze a

15:54

shopping malls worth of people or do all

15:56

this, you know, I think

15:58

he has it in his stuff That's why he's

16:00

so powerful that he can kill everybody else. Yeah, maybe

16:04

I don't know. Yeah, also the Wolverine in

16:06

like X-Men origins might also be a different

16:08

Wolverine All right, X-Men no

16:11

X-Men first class or whatever cuz

16:13

that those timelines are all that's true. Yeah,

16:15

fuck. Yeah Yeah, so I guess yeah, I

16:17

guess it's more emotionally resonant if it's Logan

16:19

Wolverine, but also does that not take away

16:22

from His sacrifice. I

16:24

just put him back. Yeah, I guess if they

16:26

just fight back To die,

16:28

but then they like the the I

16:30

think you'll knowingly sacrifice Yeah,

16:33

and they're like we have to wipe your

16:35

memory Yeah Right thing has to happen Etc

16:37

because if you don't go back they won't

16:39

be able to bury you in a shallow

16:41

grave and that's important for the timeline Right

16:43

exactly. No, you got to save them kids

16:45

or whatever. We're in a we're an amateur

16:47

metal detectorist. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah I

16:49

mean we could we could send you back with all

16:51

the knowledge of what's gonna happen and like a big

16:54

laser gun or something And you can kill that

16:56

clone of you. Yeah, I'm really easily. Yeah, exactly

16:59

You cure your oh, I'll just make

17:01

the noble sacrifice for no reason cure

17:03

your adamantium poisoning. That's right. What an

17:05

idiot Yeah, or it's just all

17:07

they just relying on us the viewer going. Oh,

17:09

that's Wolverine and he's had some yeah That's

17:11

probably also what all you need to know really.

17:13

Yeah, that's Wolverine. Just a Wolverine and we know

17:15

he's Whichever version it is.

17:17

He's had some problems and he's you

17:20

know, he's that he's in a bar. He's in a bar

17:22

Yeah, exactly Oh,

17:26

we can't get his claws out erection joke

17:28

erection Yeah, and so on but he does

17:30

have his yellow and blue suit and then

17:32

I'll tears the sleeves off Yeah, God, he's

17:34

big again. He's huge big again. He could

17:36

have just done his arms though. That's all

17:38

I would have done Yeah, one

17:40

arm. Oh, yeah me from one side. Oh,

17:42

you can only rip one sleeve. Yeah, exactly.

17:44

Yeah. Yeah They're really good and big he's

17:46

looking good. He gets shot in the nuts.

17:49

Oh, yeah Someone gets hit in the nuts.

17:51

Yeah, it gets shot in the

17:53

sides at one point. That's right Yeah, I am

17:56

I saw some rumors that were probably

17:58

true about certain other people that are gonna

18:00

turn up, which I'm not gonna get into. A Famica

18:02

Jansen? My sheet is in it. She

18:04

said she has or hasn't, I can't remember which. I would

18:07

say she's definitely in the audience. I don't know specifically about

18:09

that. I saw also recently

18:11

that they're putting the Daredevil movie

18:13

on Disney+. I

18:15

think we're probably gonna see, I think

18:17

if you watch what's happening on Disney+, and what

18:19

they're gonna put on, I think

18:21

it'll probably hint towards things you'll see. Oh, the

18:23

clues are there. I think, yeah, potentially. But, you

18:26

know, I don't know. I think also that maybe

18:28

this has got more emotional resonance than we thought

18:30

it might be. Yes. Maybe, you

18:32

know? Yeah. Maybe there's so much heart

18:34

in this we won't even know. That's right. It

18:36

won't be all joke. It'll be big sacrifice,

18:39

et cetera. Might be big sacrifice, sure. Yeah,

18:41

exactly. So there you go. That's

18:43

beautiful. Yeah, do you like the cocaine joke, where they're just

18:45

naming different words for cocaine? Did that

18:48

make you, oh my God. Absolutely. Jokes

18:50

are back. Yeah, that's right. Comedy's back.

18:52

That's right. We thought it was all over, but movies

18:54

are back. Jokes are back. Comedy's back. And

18:57

we can thank Top Gun Maverick for that.

18:59

That's right. Yeah. All right, should we move it

19:01

along? Oh, did you see this? A bunch of behind

19:03

the scenes stuff for Mission Impossible 8. Oh. What's

19:06

going on? Oh, he's, you know, he's got a motorcycle. He's got

19:08

long hair. That's what you want to talk about. He's

19:10

got long hair. He does have long hair, which would suggest a

19:13

little bit of a time jump, wouldn't it? I don't know what

19:15

he's doing with that. Let's stop with that. You

19:17

don't like it? You can't now. It's over. He's

19:19

too old for it? He's too old for that hair? Yeah, I don't

19:22

know. I don't even think the cut looks right on him. I

19:24

don't know. Just me? Just me?

19:26

Just you. Just you, man. Hey, man, you do what you

19:29

can. Oh, did you, I meant to put this in. Did

19:31

you see Tom Cruise went to David Beckham's

19:33

50th birthday party? And he did some break

19:35

dancing. He did some break dancing. Allegedly. 62

19:38

or whatever. And the Spice Girls were there. The Spice

19:41

Girls were there. And I was like, great. But he

19:43

did some break dancing in front of everybody and then

19:45

did the full splits. Which he's done

19:47

before, I think. To an agape audience. What

19:50

was the audience? A gate. No, a shape.

19:53

Okay. And the question

19:55

then arises is, has

19:57

he always had break dancing in his back pocket?

20:00

Yes. Or did he get

20:02

invited to this party and he's

20:04

like, well, I've got to

20:06

have a party trick. I guess I'll learn to break

20:08

dance. Tom Cruise doing the splits. Because I type in

20:10

Tom Cruise splits and it's like, Tom Cruise split with

20:12

his wife. Then he split with his wife

20:15

again. And it's just that. Everybody's having

20:17

a normal time. He's one of the most normal

20:19

guys. Split with his Russian socialite

20:21

girlfriend, apparently. I didn't know. Who's that? I

20:23

don't know. Never heard of her. Socialite,

20:26

at least in a cray

20:28

rover. I don't know. Sounds made up, but all right. Yeah,

20:30

I don't know, man. Was this recent? It's

20:33

during the production of Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Power.

20:35

I'm checking the date on this. Okay. This

20:38

is via... Are we breaking a scoop here? This is via OKUSA. OkayUSA.

20:41

February 22nd, 2024. Oh.

20:45

God, I thought... He had a whirlwind romance. I thought

20:47

this was the one. Yeah, me too. Oh, well. Yeah.

20:50

You'll be all right, Tom Cruise. Yeah. The

20:53

money will save you, I think. The money will save you. That's

20:55

right. This is via deadline. I

20:57

think he's going to get married to a movie camera.

20:59

Yeah, he might. Get married to a Panavision lens or

21:01

something. That's good. That's good,

21:03

Mason. Yeah. Deadline are reporting that 28 Years

21:05

Later, which is

21:07

going to be directed by Danny Boyle and written

21:09

by Alex Garland. Oh. They're

21:12

reteaming again. It's going to start

21:14

Jodie Koma from Killing

21:16

Eve and Free Guy. And

21:19

Loki. Yep. No. Wait.

21:22

Now you're thinking of... I am. What's

21:24

her name? Loki. Sylvie from Loki, but not her.

21:26

Yeah, it's a different lady. Aaron Taylor Johnson. I've

21:28

heard of him. People I know from The Fall

21:31

Guy. Craven the hunter. And Craven the hunter. He's

21:33

Craven the hunter. Craven that hunt, mate. I'll tell

21:35

you that much. And... And

21:38

Ray Fiennes. And also, again, this

21:40

is going to be the first in the trilogy. Danny

21:42

Boyle is probably not going to direct to the other

21:44

one. I think I saw Nia Da Costa might take

21:46

the second who did Captain Marvel 2,

21:48

Second Marvel. Three Marvels. Three Marvels. Marvel is one

21:51

movie. Yeah. So how do you feel about that?

21:53

Love it. I want to see like

21:55

Naomi House, Killian Murphy. Yeah, absolutely. I want

21:57

to say that. This is a good... lineup.

22:00

I agree yeah. Yeah. Oh what

22:02

have you been up to? Well I was in the

22:04

movie Oppenheimer. Oh yeah? How'd that go? I mean not

22:06

great we don't have a lot of, because we're in

22:08

the zombie universe. Yeah yeah. Mostly you know

22:11

most most of the cast were zombies. How did it

22:13

nearly make a billion dollars? Well they

22:16

have zombie dollars. Their money spends.

22:18

Oh zom dollars? Yeah zom-b-b-b-z? Lost

22:21

it. Zombux. Thank you. Yeah. That's

22:23

perfect Mason. So there you go. Yeah.

22:26

That'll be out in two years or something. Fine. But

22:28

what about if somebody builds a bigger bomb? You

22:31

know? Oh yeah. It was really obvious in

22:33

hindsight wasn't it? Yeah. Variety says,

22:36

an article by Rebecca Rubin says

22:39

it's called as election looms politics can seep

22:41

into movies where the Hollywood likes it or

22:44

not. What do you think of that?

22:46

Well I like my movies without any politics.

22:48

Sure. So I've never watched a movie. I've

22:52

only I've only heard descriptions of

22:54

the TV series Knuckles from your son. What

22:57

do you think? Loved it. Did you like the scene

22:59

with Joe Biden though? Oh. Controversy

23:04

apparently. Well so. Controversy

23:06

is not what they say. Controversy. So one of the

23:08

things they're finding is that studios having

23:11

trouble with controversy and backlash

23:13

surrounding perceived politics in movies whether or

23:15

not they're even in movies. Oh yeah.

23:17

So they're constantly dealing with and some

23:19

of the examples in the article is

23:21

The Little Mermaid. Politics. Politics.

23:23

Barbie. Politics. Sound of freedom. Politics. Civil War.

23:26

Oh there's politics. Now you better believe it.

23:28

That's just a few examples. I mean that

23:30

was mostly politics free you know. Civil War.

23:33

Yeah sure. You know they saw both sides

23:35

of that movie. I also saw both sides.

23:37

That movie was made for me specifically. An

23:39

Enlightened Centrist. So

23:41

there's a quote even Peter Newman who's

23:44

head of the graduate dual degree program at NYU.

23:46

Here we go these bloody liberal elites. Here

23:49

we go. Here we go. What what if

23:51

Mr. Politics. What if Mr. Politics in my

23:53

education have to say. It says he threw

23:55

his long scarf over his shoulder. That sounds

23:57

about right. And he said if people either

24:00

legitimately or accidentally read a political bias

24:02

and something, it screws up the marketing

24:04

plan. It was hard

24:06

enough before people got so extremely sensitive about

24:08

every little thing and that's in reference to

24:11

things coming up to November 5th of this

24:13

year because studios are as a rule cautious

24:15

about ideas and elements in movies

24:17

that could alienate audiences. That trepidation is heightened during

24:19

the election year where politics can sleep in the

24:22

movies etc. So what studios

24:24

are doing apparently is they're not

24:26

releasing anything in or around

24:28

November 5th. November

24:30

is all white male month. Yes, we're back.

24:33

Yes, we're back. It's white boy

24:35

November. Right. So

24:38

that's why November. You're doing a special cut of bad

24:40

boys. So

24:42

Venom 3 has been moved. Well bad boys but white.

24:48

I like that. Yeah. It

24:51

starts with the pretty fly for a

24:53

white guy guy and I don't know

24:55

the guy who played Eminem in Stan,

24:57

the Eminem stalker. Yeah, right. The two

25:00

guys. Yeah. He is a famous actor

25:02

that guy I can't remember his name. That's

25:05

why Venom 3 was recently moved up to October 25th.

25:07

Oh no politics in that movie. And there won't be

25:09

and also there won't be. Well if there's a lady

25:11

Venom though. Yeah that's true. Surely

25:14

it's, there'd have to be another lady Venom. I

25:16

think there probably. Maybe she's

25:18

green. So, but that

25:20

weekend is just going to be like all the media consumed

25:22

is just going to be politics related and probably for the

25:24

next few weeks after it says there won't be a 10

25:28

pole movie after November 25th

25:30

until November 22nd where we

25:32

get Gladiator followed by Wicked

25:34

and Moana 2 on November 27th. So

25:36

yeah, so clear your schedules in

25:39

November everybody. It's politics time. That's

25:41

right. And that's what our show is going to

25:43

pivot to in that month. Exactly right. Yes.

25:46

Cutting political insight. That's right. Yeah.

25:50

I know. That'd be terrible. That's right.

25:53

I would hate that. So

25:55

yeah, that's all the news. I love news actually.

25:58

And actually the politics. I

26:01

think we nailed that actually. I think so too.

26:03

Yeah, I think we threaded that needle. Definitely.

26:06

Never offend anyone. I think we'll get any comments. No.

26:09

Okay, good. No, because we didn't

26:11

say anything. I

26:13

mean, that hasn't stopped people before. Yeah, yeah,

26:16

yeah. You know? Yeah. We

26:18

do get people saying why haven't you said this and it's like we've said, we've

26:20

talked about it. You missed that episode.

26:22

Yeah. You missed it. You didn't listen. It's not

26:24

our fault. Yeah, and you don't have to listen

26:26

to everything. Yeah. But you know, maybe

26:28

you didn't listen. You

28:43

The foreground's here. Well, it sure is. Well,

28:45

it's not everywhere. Hopefully soon. Very

28:47

nice. Must be nice. Before

28:49

that's out in Australia, guess what it is? That's right.

28:52

Back to normal. Back to how God intended movie release

28:54

schedules to be. Because James, you remember when we were

28:56

kids and movies came out in America and then maybe

28:58

they can- And they never came out. Maybe they came

29:00

in six months in Australia, if you were lucky. We're

29:02

currently getting that with the Minister of Undentally Men. It's

29:04

just not coming out. It's just not coming out. Just

29:06

great. I didn't want to see it anyway. Yeah, I

29:09

didn't want to see a movie with a bunch of

29:11

cool stars and it looks fun and funny and there's

29:13

explosions and Reacher wears little glasses.

29:15

He's got little glasses. That's right.

29:18

They're probably normal sized. They're probably normal glasses. They

29:20

probably are, yeah. So big. And

29:22

that's a cannon off a tank. Yeah, man. It's

29:25

a regular rifle. He's big. It

29:27

looks like he's got a bow and arrow but it's

29:29

one of those ballista things. It's one of

29:31

those giant bow and arrow kind of thing. That's

29:33

freaking sick. Freaking sick, isn't it? Love that. And

29:36

then, and James, what happened is the

29:39

world righted itself and eventually we got

29:41

movies at the same time as America

29:43

and then we started getting movies slightly

29:45

ahead of America. We got some Marvel

29:48

movies early, didn't we? That's right. And then the

29:50

Pandy Wendy happened. God damn it. And then

29:52

we stopped getting movies for a time. Yeah,

29:54

we just had bloodshot. We just watched bloodshot.

29:56

Bloodshot a lot. Yeah. And then,

29:58

and then they brought that then. Chaos.

30:01

Getting stuff after America. Or not at all. Not at

30:03

all. But now we're back. I guess this was filmed

30:05

in Sydney. I wonder if this had something to do

30:07

with that. I know there were big... I think there

30:09

was a big demand. Maybe. There were big tax incentives

30:11

as well. Yeah, okay. Which is good. Yeah, must've known.

30:14

I've never seen any of that. I don't want big

30:16

tax incentives. I want any incentive

30:18

actually. Yeah. Self motivation. It's...

30:21

It's the worst. Mason on a budget of $125

30:23

million box office. We don't know. We

30:25

don't know yet. How do you feel this is going to go? The

30:27

world over though. I mean, are

30:29

we getting... Like fun and inappropriate. Ryan, Ryan,

30:31

Gosling, Fever. Well, we'll talk about it, won't

30:33

we, Jax? Is it because movies are back?

30:36

Maybe it's going to depend entirely on this review. Oh,

30:38

might, yeah. I think we are going to make or

30:40

break this movie. Well, let's break it. Yeah,

30:43

let's do that. For fun. For fun, yeah.

30:45

For fun. And what we'll do is we'll

30:47

email Universal, whoever who released it. Whoever. And

30:49

we will blackmail them. Yeah. Well, so we're

30:51

going to release this tomorrow. Yep. Unless

30:53

you give us a tax break. That's right. Like you

30:55

gave to the city of Sydney. And then we'll say...

30:57

It's good. Vice versa. Maybe. I don't know. Just give

31:00

us some money. Yeah. What do

31:02

you think the story was? Oh, come on, mate.

31:04

Come on, mate. All right. Ryan Gosling's there. Yep.

33:44

to be you are yes Did

33:47

you know this is loosely based on the fall going?

33:49

Yeah, no, you want American action Lee majors is in

33:51

it We made it after the six million dollar man.

33:54

I've talked about that before To

33:56

be I used to watch for a piece

33:58

like five ways. Yeah Yeah, I used to watch repeats

34:00

of it at my grandparents house in like the 80s. Good?

34:03

No. But it was, you could

34:05

get a, you could get a fall guy toy where he's like

34:07

on the wing of a biplane. Oh, that's sick. That's in the

34:09

credits, he's on the wing of a biplane, like look at me.

34:11

And that was the toy. Yeah. This has

34:13

TV episode vibes, this movie. It definitely does.

34:15

The movie they're filming within it feels

34:18

like a... It's atrocious. It looks really...

34:20

Yeah, okay. It's like Mad Max plus

34:22

June. I think they've added some like

34:24

June style music scores at the last minute. Yeah,

34:27

to make it seem as if it's, you know,

34:29

very hidden. Dead in the car. But

34:31

what's interesting as well, because we sort of,

34:33

this movie sort of exists a little bit

34:35

in an unreality, because everybody believes that Aaron

34:37

Taylor Johnson's character is a really good actor.

34:40

Yeah. There's a moment where Winston

34:42

Duke and Ryan Gosling are watching a clip

34:45

of him do like a Shakespeare soliloquy. And

34:47

they're like, oh my God, he's so good.

34:49

Yeah, absolutely. He's doing a, in the movie,

34:51

he's doing a Matthew McConaughey as well. A

34:54

little bit, yeah. Doing that within the movie. I mean,

34:56

the movie he's making within the movie. Yeah. For

34:58

me, I thought this was, I liked

35:01

it enough. Yeah. I wouldn't say I loved

35:03

it. I found, you talked about

35:05

this just a bit then, just now. It's

35:08

an odd world in

35:10

a kind of inconsistent way that

35:12

I didn't enjoy. Like, I kind

35:14

of wanted to, like a more

35:16

realistic approach to like, because there

35:19

are amazing stunts in this. We'll get to

35:21

that. But the world feels like a cartoon

35:23

world. So it's like, I know you're doing

35:25

this, but it doesn't feel packed out. If

35:27

I would have summarized this movie, I would

35:29

say that is my

35:31

thoughts. In my opinion, this movie is

35:33

sort of propelled along by the kind

35:35

of infinite charisma of Ryan

35:37

Gosling and Emily Blunt and their chemistry together.

35:39

Sure. Oh, it's more his movie than hers.

35:42

Yeah, it is. That's true. But

35:45

as far as the plot goes, like it's

35:47

just enough to hang a movie on. Yeah.

35:49

There's no- It's kind of convoluted. It's one

35:51

of, it is, it's- That's also,

35:53

it's brought up. They're like, this is complicated. It's not

35:55

really there, but is that enough to forget? Yeah. Because

35:58

I would say that this movie is also- You

36:00

know what you would call a fridge logic movie.

36:02

Yeah, we get where you you finish watching and

36:04

you go home and you open your fridge And

36:06

like hey, wait a second Like there's there's an

36:08

element in this which we'll talk about in spoilers

36:10

Which would probably just eliminate the entire third act

36:13

like it would make the entire third act right?

36:15

Sorry, yeah, you know a very basic thing happened.

36:17

You know, there's a lot of there's

36:19

a lot of shots of the Sydney Opera House

36:21

Oh, you better believe it. Yeah, just always most shots.

36:23

It's just that's right Yeah, as I was saying like

36:25

it it does it feels Like

36:28

it was shot at the same time

36:30

by the same people who made anyone but you Right.

36:32

Oh, yeah, it feels like it's got that kind

36:35

of color grading that look the humor is like

36:37

the same It's James very

36:39

similar James Yeah, do we do we have

36:41

it? Do we have a Hollywood

36:43

color situation like whenever they go to

36:45

Mexico and breaking bad? We do do

36:48

we have a do American think that

36:50

Sydney is like that like a

36:52

funny color They think Australia's a funny

36:54

color no matter what you get off the airport

36:56

and you're like this place It has a funny

36:58

color have a funny color. It's like everywhere else

37:00

and every all and we don't know why I

37:02

sense We're the only country that doesn't have accents

37:04

get get get over it. Yeah get in the

37:06

bin No, you put anyone

37:08

but you in this movie have that same color Yeah,

37:10

I would say so definitely and it's even that kind

37:12

of that But that kind of that the rhythm of

37:15

the jokes and whatever are we are we

37:17

critical of this because it doesn't have Recognizable

37:20

Australian elements in it besides the city

37:24

The city Opera House like this the mad at all

37:26

times when you go when you a movie takes place

37:28

in Australia you'll see real

37:30

Australian news readers. Yeah be on Channel

37:33

10 or whatever channel Peter over to

37:35

him I'm Peter Hichina and we're gonna

37:37

fight what that's right. I stretch should

37:39

be the king of the news readers

37:41

in Australia That's

37:43

right. Yeah, I don't know If

37:47

anything I think the Australian stuff I'd like take

37:49

me out of it and like I'm not like

37:51

this isn't Australian enough It's like it's I like

37:53

the thing Australian people that I recognize or know

37:55

like popping up in this like I

37:57

enjoyed that This is of course David leachud as

37:59

uncredited The director on the first John Wierke

38:01

directed Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2, Hobbs and Shaw.

38:04

Nobody's fault. Nobody's fault that one.

38:07

Somebody's fault. Somebody has to take the bullet train.

38:09

Well it's not him I don't think. And more

38:11

recently Bullet Train, which I enjoyed more than this.

38:13

I enjoyed it and I

38:15

think we might be in the minority. I

38:18

think I like Gosling more than Brad Pitt

38:20

though. It's like an action lead. I think

38:22

Gosling's charisma is like... Let's talk about the action.

38:25

Let's talk about the action. Here's the thing about

38:27

the action. For a movie

38:29

that is about a stuntman, obviously

38:32

he's tasked with a producer to

38:34

find the missing star of this

38:36

movie. He's disappeared and he's like,

38:38

well he's probably just on

38:41

a drunken bed or whatever. Doing a

38:43

drug or what have you. And so

38:45

he gets in a bit over his head and he gets

38:47

into some scrapes but of course he's got his stuntman skills

38:50

to take care of some martial arts and he's good at

38:52

jumping off a big thing. And

38:55

so this movie is, you know, ideally

38:57

you would like to have a lot of spectacular stunts in

38:59

it. And as I watched this movie

39:01

I thought, huh, for a movie that is largely about

39:04

a stuntman and he's so good at doing

39:06

stunts, a lot of the

39:08

stunts in this seem like they were

39:11

made on a sound stage and filled

39:13

in with visual effects. But at the

39:15

end of the movie, during the credits,

39:17

we get a montage of behind the

39:19

scenes B-roll of all the actual stunt

39:21

performance. For Ryan Gosling having a punch

39:23

up in a bin. Having the actual

39:25

stunts. Surfing down Sydney Harbour. So what

39:27

has happened is they've done a bunch

39:29

of real stunts and then they've cleaned

39:32

them up. The colour grading and.

39:34

They've cleaned them up with visual effects to the point where in

39:36

a lot of them I was like, this isn't real.

39:38

That car jump is real. Like

39:40

which I didn't think it was. You'll see

39:42

it in the trailer. There's a moment where Gosling

39:46

is fighting Maine Thug, played by Ben

39:48

Knight, in a tipped over skip

39:50

that has been, or dumpster if you're American,

39:52

but it's a skip. It's being

39:54

pulled through the streets of Sydney on the

39:56

back of a truck. And they're really in

39:58

it. stunt performers for

40:01

the most part. It's both the actors

40:03

in the thing and I'm like, oh

40:06

they did that because it kind of looks like

40:08

they're not doing it in the movie itself. And

40:11

there's plenty of jumping off buildings and yeah

40:13

the moment where it's being Ryan Gosling's on

40:15

the back of the truck and it's sort

40:18

of skidding I think probably down the Sydney

40:20

Harbour Bridge and there's sparks are flying. In

40:22

the movie I'm like it's a shame they

40:24

didn't do that for real, but they did

40:26

do it for real. Yeah,

40:28

there's no sense of danger to it. Is

40:30

that what it is? Because remember when we

40:32

watched Dead Reckoning and prior to Dead Reckoning

40:35

coming out there was the big... They

40:37

told everybody what was real. Yeah the big

40:39

featurette and the big stunt

40:41

of that movie is Tom Cruise for real

40:43

drives a... They let us know like a

40:45

year in advance and showed us every day

40:47

leading up. And in advance in a way

40:49

you could see it at the movies you

40:51

know as part of previews for other movies

40:53

you would see he would drive a motorcycle

40:55

off an actual cliff and then open an

40:57

actual parachute and leap down and survive

40:59

it. And he did it so many times. He's

41:01

still doing it. But when the actual movie came

41:04

out they had visual effects moved

41:06

out the... And it looked weird. It looked

41:08

weird and odd and like he wasn't there

41:10

and they did the same thing in Fallout

41:12

when they did the Halo

41:14

jump. Yeah. They did so much cloud and

41:16

electricity that the real Halo jump he did

41:18

was obscured by it. It looked better in

41:21

the actual footage. Just someone filming on

41:23

a phone looks better. And it made

41:25

me think especially about Mission Impossible the

41:27

Dead Reckoning that they should

41:29

have contrived a situation where there was a

41:31

ramp on the cliff or like some... Yeah.

41:33

Just some junk that he could use as

41:36

a ramp as opposed to making it look

41:38

like it was just an unadorned cliff because

41:40

they made it look worse. And it was

41:42

like that for a lot of these and

41:44

you know it's a shame. I

41:47

think all the stunts are amazing. Well that's the thing

41:49

they are. Like I... The credits were some of my

41:51

favorite parts. It's like oh shit they really did that.

41:54

I guess that's the point of the credits to give the

41:57

Jews to like the stunt performers and the team. put

42:00

that together. Because when

42:02

Ryan Gosling's character comes to Sydney, the first thing

42:04

they do is they put him in a car

42:06

stunt. They've got to flip a car on a

42:08

beach. Which broke a record. Yeah, and they ran

42:11

a... Again, in the end

42:13

credits they show it and it's real stunt performers

42:15

and they really flip it and wreck this thing.

42:17

And they really did a leaping

42:20

a car across a canyon like 250 feet. That

42:23

broke a record I think as well. Absolutely. All

42:26

of that's great. But again, yeah. I

42:28

also... There is... Yeah,

42:30

it's unreality to it. And I think it also...

42:32

The movie they're making in the movie, it's

42:35

kind of like that Tropic Thunder thing. But

42:37

it feels like there is no... Even

42:40

with the terrible movies that we have

42:42

gotten and continue to get, there's no

42:45

way somebody would make this. Right. And

42:47

somebody who's supposed to be as talented as Emily Blunt

42:50

is. But again, I guess it's that suspension of disbelief

42:52

like that Aaron Taylor-Johnson is a good actor in this.

42:54

But like, it's like a

42:56

golden cowboy and an alien, but he's driving a

42:58

car but it's an alien world and sort of

43:00

dune and whatever. Like watching that, it's like nobody

43:03

would ever see this. But it's

43:05

hard to do that. It's

43:08

one of those things where, you know, if

43:10

you have to show in a movie that

43:12

somebody's a great stand-up comic, or they're a

43:14

great musician, or they're a great film director,

43:16

or a great actor, it's really quite difficult

43:18

to show that genius

43:20

or all that. I mean, if it was good enough, it would just be

43:23

a movie. That's exactly right. You know, one

43:25

of the great examples I think they use is,

43:27

you know, the movie That Thing You Do, which

43:30

is about, you know, Tom Hanks stars in it

43:32

and it's a Beatles-style band who have

43:34

a big one hit. They have a song called

43:36

That Thing You Do. And that movie lives and

43:38

dies on the idea that that is a really,

43:40

like that is a genuinely good pop song from

43:43

that era. And they got the guy from Fountain's

43:45

of Wine who has passed away since then, but

43:47

he wrote that song. You

43:50

believe in that movie because the song, and you believe

43:52

that in the 60s, or 50s or 60s,

43:57

that teenage girls would swarm

44:00

this band because the song is so great.

44:02

Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. But it also in this

44:04

movie, Emily Blunt is a camera

44:07

operator and then Gosling has

44:09

the accident and then 18 months later,

44:11

she is directing a Marvel

44:13

style Hall H Comic Con blockbuster. Yeah. Like

44:15

a multi hundred million dollars. And I guess

44:17

they do take directors and like plonk them

44:19

into movies. They do. Yeah. That are already

44:21

in production, but this is like her dream

44:24

project. And it's her debut as well. Yeah.

44:26

And it's been 18 months and like

44:29

you just couldn't. Did she direct a movie? Did

44:31

she direct her first movie in between? I don't

44:33

think I think they just said this was her

44:35

first movie. I think I believe that's what they

44:37

said. Okay. Right. But yeah, like, and cause she's

44:39

talking about how she's developing this. These are all

44:41

minor nitpicks. Yeah. Yeah. Like developing this since. But

44:43

I think in this movie, especially I kind of

44:46

feel like they build up. Yeah. There's also, you

44:48

know what the problem is? Yes. You know,

44:50

I think we're going to have to go ahead.

44:52

It's just, it's not funny enough where you just

44:55

go. It's a funny movie that, that's silly. Yeah.

44:57

Of course the movie's bad in it because it's

44:59

a funny movie because it's not that like it's

45:02

charming and like charismatic leads,

45:04

et cetera. But it's not

45:07

particular. I think there's like a unicorn

45:09

joke that I really liked. And

45:11

that's probably the only joke that I

45:13

really. There's a sort of a running

45:16

gag towards the end where the Emily

45:18

Blunt and Gosling kind of, you know,

45:20

team up romantically and also in

45:22

a, in a, in a crime solving sense. And

45:24

they're like, what are we going to do? And

45:26

there's like a running gag where Ryan Gosling's like,

45:28

yeah, we're going to beat him up. Yeah. I

45:30

thought that was kind of a, but I

45:33

will have to talk about it more in spoilers,

45:35

I think, but I also think like the third

45:37

act pacing wise is very off. Like

45:40

there's, they want to do a kind

45:42

of, here's the plan and we're going

45:44

to plan the perfect data to solve

45:47

all these problems and then we're going to pay it off, but

45:49

I don't think it really works in

45:51

a lot of ways. It doesn't work

45:54

in the sense that. No one would fall for

45:56

that. Like no one would fall for the thing that they do.

45:59

And also. that they explain

46:01

it and then they do

46:03

it. Whereas I feel like it

46:05

would work better if they just

46:07

did it like it would work better. You know,

46:10

one of those movies where you think the good

46:12

guys have, you know, they're, they're, they're on the ropes

46:14

and what have you in the good, in the bad

46:16

guys. They tell you they're going to do

46:18

it and then they just do it. Yeah. You know,

46:20

there's a, there's a, there's what, what, what I like

46:22

about this sort of movie, the movie that it's trying

46:24

to be is, you know, the good guys are on

46:26

the ropes and the bad guys are like, well, let

46:28

guess I've gotten away with that. And then it turns

46:30

around and you realize that all the things that have

46:32

been happening have actually been the good guys working in

46:34

the background and it's all turned around, but they did,

46:37

they did, they explained what they're going to do. Yeah.

46:39

And then they do it and then you see it and it

46:41

works. Yeah. Spoilers. Yeah. I

46:44

think, I think a good comparison to

46:46

this would be Tropic Thunder, where

46:48

it's, it's not the same premise, but it's a

46:50

movie within a movie and things go awry and

46:52

the movie is ridiculous and everybody's being ridiculous, but

46:54

that is just wall to wall with

46:57

jokes. Yes. And the joke is that, or

46:59

even the movie in that looks like it could

47:01

exist. That's true. Yeah. And like, and obviously

47:03

the heavy satire and the blackface and all

47:05

of that, that only works because the movie

47:08

is as funny as it is, right? That's

47:10

the only reason. Whereas this

47:12

doesn't try anything quite as daring and it's

47:14

not, because why would you though, really? And

47:17

it's not, it's just not that funny.

47:19

Imagine if this was just fucking hilarious.

47:21

Absolutely. That it would just, that

47:23

would be it. I wonder also if they're like, because

47:25

again, some of this does feel like, especially the

47:28

third act does feel like a TV show wrapping

47:30

up. Yeah. That they're like, well, the show wasn't

47:32

that funny. So we can't, in

47:35

honor of the show that no one remembers except

47:37

me, we can't, we can't make

47:39

it too wacky. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

47:41

Maybe, I don't know. I think also there's

47:43

some hand-to-hand stuff, which is good. There's a

47:45

fight in the club, which I quite enjoy,

47:48

but I also think there's, so Ryan

47:51

got too many things. There are too many things.

47:53

Ryan Gosling sustains an injury at the start. It's

47:55

like a back injury. And they kind of, you

47:57

see him doing a little bit of recovery. And

48:00

he A But then. It. Doesn't affect him

48:02

like at all. So. I think. Like

48:05

an injured start man. Would. Add

48:07

some steaks, do it where it is

48:09

injured, but you never. Saw

48:12

him and he falls a fall guy. I'll take

48:14

somebody falls and I'm going to move again and

48:17

everything. but it's never like all these guys in

48:19

danger rind as he gets because it is this

48:21

and it's probably by design is like Carter is

48:23

a car to remain in the comic a little

48:25

like the I I mean I would say over

48:27

all that was probably not my problem with. I

48:30

liked the idea. That. He's

48:32

to some degree an expert at the thing is

48:34

do s and likely to get like really hurt

48:36

not be as originally yeah you like a one

48:38

when he slides through the windscreen of a Carlin's

48:41

on the road like that's as bad as the

48:43

thing that happens to him at the start. Young

48:45

easy when I thought I would I thought like

48:47

the at the on I'd. Has. A

48:49

vague notion that this was the idea of the

48:51

The original is that. Ah he to

48:53

be out matches the bad guys because I've never

48:56

seen the skills ago. I disliked the article that

48:58

I agree with that. I agree. I agree. I

49:00

mean there's a. There's. A apartment pawnshop

49:02

that human Winston zoo to have galaxies

49:05

I really like. but yeah I guess

49:07

this is a very tentative best move

49:09

up on Cruise I I I liked

49:11

it enough idea, regime of it and

49:13

this stance when you realize that most

49:16

of them a real are not all.

49:19

He had been as the ads bet it's

49:21

than yeah, yeah it's would you watch another

49:23

one. I mean not. if it was does this,

49:25

What if it was better. Than. You know all

49:27

and grow. Our what's your best man for You wouldn't

49:29

rule it out. You wouldn't be like I'm never

49:31

going to say. I know it's not terrible, but.

49:34

It's it's it's fine, all is fine.

49:36

I was I think last week we

49:39

said is our is us with five

49:41

economy but insane it's fine. It's.

49:43

A disagree talk about it reflects on because

49:45

this is a lot going on in. Oh

49:48

yeah, it's not boring. Know that's true? Yeah,

49:50

sorry what would you say? I'm inside this

49:52

movie ever? Yeah I us look I've I

49:54

enjoyed. Why? more of a than

49:57

i didn't ah dear the stance would

49:59

genuinely president None of it there. I was

50:01

like hated that. Yeah, like I never had a

50:03

moment like that in the yeah or even like

50:05

I don't like I felt emotionally like the for

50:07

the most part the stakes were there. Yeah, you

50:09

know because he Gosling's

50:11

character is kind of you know He

50:13

wants to reconnect and I felt like there was

50:15

some emotional depth that but you know Emily

50:18

Blunt's character feels she got abandoned, you know, yeah

50:21

So he didn't at no point did he say

50:23

yeah, cuz I broke my back. Yeah, I was

50:25

in traction for 18 months Sure. Yeah, but he

50:27

was ripped. Yeah, it was ripped and jacked. That's

50:29

so true Isn't it spoilers and he's got a

50:31

signature. He's got a series of signature jackets He

50:33

does because he that back in the day starting

50:36

a stunt show didn't me? That's yeah,

50:38

but I mean if I start show, you

50:40

know, but but it Gosling's learned his lesson,

50:42

you know It's a jacket signature jacket Blade

50:45

Runner 2049. Yeah signature jacket. Yes, Rive

50:47

scorpion jacket Yep, then he made a

50:49

big old mistake the gray man. What

50:51

was his signature jacket gray? No, I

50:53

haven't seen it Tracksuit jacket. Oh, I

50:55

would even say Ken signature jacket signature

50:57

jacket. Yeah, that's right That's what you

50:59

need. He's got a couple of things

51:01

got the red one. Yeah. Okay. Yeah,

51:04

pretty good. He's got good jacket Yeah, that's right Spoilers,

51:07

it's time for spoilers though folks. We're gonna

51:09

do a big spoiler Anyway, the big setup

51:11

was Aaron Taylor Johnson accidentally killed a stuntman

51:14

and so Hannah placement stuff, man

51:16

Yeah, well and two things one

51:18

he accidentally one. He deliberately caused

51:20

the accident that that Ryan

51:23

Gosling was in he thought I didn't think that fall

51:25

at the start was real No,

51:28

it wasn't Gosling but it was a real stunt guy and

51:30

I wasn't it or didn't they I think they really dropped

51:32

him Okay, great. Yeah, well my I thought I was looking

51:34

some behind the scenes. Yeah, but the Yeah,

51:38

so so he Ryan Gosling's character

51:40

I guess was taking the spotlight from Aaron

51:42

Taylor Johnson So he he changed the setting

51:44

on the on the gun set up and

51:46

and caused the accident So it was not

51:48

his fault after all so that you know,

51:50

he got some closure on that Yes, and

51:52

then it turned out that the Aaron Taylor

51:55

Johnson killed his replacement stuntman by

51:57

accident by doing a big karate kick

51:59

on him Yeah, and he hit his head

52:01

and there's footage of that And

52:03

so what they what the plan

52:05

was is that he contacted his producer?

52:08

He's also in this movie. I know what

52:10

are Whaddington from Ted Lesu. That's right. Um

52:13

Normally blonde normally blonde. Yeah legally

52:15

Wow Mmm,

52:18

yeah And

52:20

and so what they were like will

52:22

get in that Ryan Gosling and

52:24

we'll get him to take the fall So

52:26

he's the fall guy. They're falling in love. That's right.

52:29

I need a stop man. Just thought it should've caught

52:31

him I'll call it a thumbs up man. I will

52:33

fall man. They should have called him There are three

52:35

falls and we'll tell you what they are. I

52:38

think I thought interview the director was like, yeah

52:40

So there's multiple meanings like that and I'm like

52:42

multiple more than the three that you said I

52:44

think that's the big day after a anyway, so

52:46

so they hatch a plan It's

52:48

a big plan and the plan is to

52:50

get Ryan Gosling to Sydney and then frame

52:52

him get him to investigate What's happening? I

52:55

mean in doing so frame him for

52:57

the murder and then face replace him using

53:00

Technology deep fake technology. So it looks like

53:02

he did the murder on the video. Yeah,

53:04

and then Then

53:06

he's gonna they're gonna kill him and make it look like

53:08

a suicide So so right

53:11

out of Aaron Taylor Johnson's character is in

53:13

the clear. That's right. Yeah, but I Leslie

53:17

as Ryan Gosling says like very

53:19

complicated very complicated to delete the

53:21

footage Just delete the footage because

53:23

he's he's he's And

53:27

he fell. Yeah, like just delete the

53:29

footage and he fell over. Yeah, exactly And

53:31

also what about all the other witnesses? Exactly like

53:34

also you could just be like we were tussling

53:36

and he fell over. Yeah, like and that's yeah

53:38

Because it was an accident. He didn't kill

53:40

him on purpose. Yeah, exactly Yeah, but of course,

53:43

you know, but I mean look I'm willing to

53:45

go with well This guy is stupid. He's stupid

53:47

and he doesn't want to he doesn't want to

53:49

lose You know, he's he's bad because his career

53:51

is more important than the other man's life And

53:53

I can't I'm absolutely willing to go with that.

53:55

But the the whole thing is too complicated because

53:58

Gosling if That's a. They want to

54:00

sit this guy out. Why? Do

54:02

they go? Will you stay twice as

54:04

you need to investigate this and you

54:06

relying on him the untrained investigate us

54:08

to do a series of a long

54:11

series of detective work to end up

54:13

in a place where you might yeah

54:15

with is plausible as you up the

54:17

plausibly to me that this murder yeah

54:19

like. You. Could have also invite him to

54:21

the said yeah he just does all the stance

54:23

and then you release the footage. yeah you know

54:25

like still him with a stance on said will

54:27

kill him at the start but also like he

54:29

just has to be in the city. Yeah and

54:31

you released the footage of the doing a got

54:33

like he doesn't have to do the investigation of

54:35

this either all the enemy all what you would

54:37

probably do was go all he might be at

54:39

that hotel go to the hotel yeah all the

54:42

reason with call the cops and you less it

54:44

that's enough but it also wouldn't the. Autopsy.

54:46

Revealed that Guy's been dead for a long time

54:48

and I put him on an ice bath when

54:50

it also revealed that like. Like

54:52

other people would, I would have gone to the

54:54

witnesses three a video they've been. I have. And

54:57

also and I guess I would have paid off

54:59

on an idea. I guess they overpaid off. So

55:01

funny enough of it. Now that's true and then.

55:03

But so instead. ah, Instead.

55:05

He goes to. One. Of

55:07

the produces assistance is like. You've.

55:09

Got to get his his phone. Yeah what

55:12

is he still have his phone? What in

55:14

the padded the phone? Gets.

55:16

Why didn't our intelligence his character to be like

55:18

give me the phone said was another you're obviously

55:20

film yeah he me the phone and all the

55:23

late that but he doesn't yet. It's also his

55:25

followed So Ryan Gosling has to get his. Pin.

55:28

To open the phone. And. He

55:30

finds the footage and then he doesn't just

55:32

email it to himself. Yeah that was my

55:34

number one at that moment. Moment of like

55:36

all these lists in this situation the absolute

55:38

first thing of do is I would just

55:40

put that on drive the I put on

55:42

a set my own google drive in that

55:44

I would have as a cipher of us

55:46

I forever but nobody does not and then

55:48

the phone gets destroyed. Would shoot have happened.

55:51

Price of the movie starring yes arms because

55:53

it that would end that would end the

55:56

that would just the we noted for third

55:58

act in. July. No,

56:00

I do like this. I well, that's the thing I

56:02

generally I genuinely do like this movie But

56:04

it again it feels this is as close as

56:06

I can get to a switch your brain off

56:08

movie without Before not

56:11

enjoying it I

56:15

think if it took one step further one

56:17

step closer to the further exactly I'm like

56:19

the phone I and again, I think it

56:21

is due to the charm of the lead.

56:23

Yeah, everybody and it's good But

56:25

I think if it was an uncharismatic lead

56:28

and uncharismatic support I'd be like, oh

56:30

no Yeah, this no, I wouldn't be

56:32

bad and yeah, and so then the phone

56:35

is destroyed So they have

56:37

to get him another way you have to make

56:39

him confess. I have to make him confess But

56:42

then it turns out that they've made

56:45

a deep fake of that footage. So they have that footage

56:47

They have a copy of the footage and they've been but

56:49

is the woman earlier on who deep-faced

56:51

she also in on us Because there's

56:53

a there's a woman there's a computer

56:56

got because they can't gozzling. Yeah, I'll

56:58

team Scan him did

57:00

you wait to but then is then

57:02

there's the thing that again it should have what

57:04

so what happens is There's an escape then they're

57:06

gonna kill gozzling on it. They get by setting

57:09

him on fire You know that classic suicide where

57:11

you tie yourself to a chair and cover you

57:13

like that How he swallowed the fuel and spat

57:15

that was a lot good skill set great story

57:18

Then he seemingly dies in an explosion and

57:20

then we as an audience Immediately

57:23

learned that he hasn't died in explosion and

57:25

obviously he hasn't died in explosion We know

57:27

that the movie isn't gonna end with him

57:29

dying in an explosion and then he's framed

57:32

for a murder that he didn't commit and that's

57:34

the end of the movie and Emily blunt his

57:36

heartbroken and Shattered by

57:38

this revelation that he was a murderer That's

57:41

not gonna happen. Obviously he's gonna come back

57:43

But we immediately we do that rise of

57:45

Skywalker where he died and then we immediately

57:48

Unkill him and then he goes to visit

57:50

her now I wonder if it's because they

57:52

do there's an action sequence where he shows

57:54

up in a costume He sneaks back on

57:57

a set in an alien costume and there's

57:59

an extended sequence where she thinks she's

58:01

being attacked, she just beats him up for

58:03

a really long time. And that's funny. Sure.

58:06

But. It goes for a really long time.

58:08

It does go for a really long time and I get, you know,

58:10

and they've learned the choreography and why wouldn't they? It seems like a

58:12

bit of fun. But then we

58:15

learn that, then

58:17

we realize that they're going to work together to

58:19

solve this thing and make him

58:21

confess. But I think it would have worked way

58:24

better if we didn't see

58:26

that until later. And she's like,

58:28

Oh, I'm shattered and I can't believe this. Anyway,

58:30

I guess the movie has to keep going. We've

58:33

got to keep making this movie. And then he

58:35

does his final thing. And then he's like, Oh,

58:37

here he is. Oh, actually with the stuntman. It's

58:40

Ryan Gosling. He's still alive kind of thing. You know

58:42

what I mean? Yeah. Because they go,

58:44

okay, what we're going to do is we're going to put a wire

58:46

on him and he's going to forget that he's wearing a wire and

58:48

he always keeps talking when he's wearing a

58:50

wire. So we're going to, we're

58:52

going to record him. We're going to get him

58:54

to admit that he, why would you though? Why

58:57

would you admit it? Yep. You

58:59

know, you wouldn't know. And the idea is he's

59:01

again, you could even look at that footage and

59:03

go, that's deep faked. Yeah,

59:06

exactly. There's a, you

59:08

know what the thing about bullet train, I'm cutting you off.

59:10

No, please. Bullet train. It's

59:12

so contained and tight. And the story

59:14

is there's a bullet train

59:16

and there's nine assassins and there's like

59:19

one twist. Yes. And

59:21

that's it. Like it's sprawling and

59:24

it trips over itself in it.

59:27

Yeah. So it's complicatedness individually. So

59:29

what happens is at the

59:31

end, Aaron Taylor Johnson's

59:33

character is Emily

59:36

Blahn asked him to do like a pickup shot where

59:38

he gets in a truck and they're going to do

59:40

some assorted footage of that in front

59:42

of a blue screen. But then Ryan Gosling jumps

59:44

into the truck as well and the blue screens

59:46

drop down. Actually they're going to do a stunt

59:48

for real. It's impossible. Mission impossible.

59:50

They're going to do the world's biggest car

59:52

jump and in doing so he's like, oh,

59:55

actually I've betrayed you and I've framed

59:57

you for murder. Why would you admit any of

59:59

it? I don't understand why you would. It

1:00:01

doesn't even feel like, because

1:00:03

we know that Ryan

1:00:06

Gosling is not gonna kill himself in

1:00:08

a stunt for this. At

1:00:10

no point are we like, well he's

1:00:13

gonna crash this into a ravine and

1:00:15

kill them both if this guy

1:00:17

doesn't admit it. And at no point

1:00:19

do I feel even like Aaron Taylor-Johnson's

1:00:22

character believes that. So why would

1:00:24

he admit it? He'd be like, do the stunt. I

1:00:26

don't care. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And

1:00:28

then they do the thing at the end where him

1:00:30

and the producer just go

1:00:32

on the run and pull guns and hijack

1:00:35

a helicopter or whatever it is. And

1:00:38

you don't see that thing he puts on his back at the

1:00:40

start that you see once? Oh yeah. He

1:00:42

puts it on- Have we got about Ryan Gosling? Yes, he

1:00:44

puts it on the producers. You see it for a second

1:00:46

like he put it on his stomach at one point. You

1:00:48

see it for like, I think it was gonna be like-

1:00:51

A tracking device or something? No, like an ongoing thing in

1:00:53

this movie. Like, cause you see it once and then you

1:00:55

see it for like a split second in the helicopter where

1:00:57

he uses it as a weapon where he- I don't even

1:00:59

think you see it, put it on her. Or you do

1:01:01

it if you do it really quick. And she's just

1:01:04

like, ahh! Or is it like electrical or something?

1:01:06

I guess. It's like one of

1:01:08

those electrical muscle building things that may or may not

1:01:10

work. No, they're real. I mean, they're real. I

1:01:12

don't work. They're real. I guess

1:01:14

he also liked that Aaron Taylor-Johnson, because

1:01:16

he dies in an explosion, Jason

1:01:19

Mamoa just shows up. That is fun. I

1:01:21

like that. All of

1:01:23

that, yeah. Ah, yeah. So, so

1:01:26

there's a big- and again, some

1:01:28

helicopter based stunts, bit of fun. Yep.

1:01:31

They record him, they record Aaron Taylor-Johnson admitting to

1:01:33

it for some reason. Why would he do that?

1:01:36

And then the recording is- the

1:01:39

bad guys grab the recording and escape on a helicopter.

1:01:41

Why would you just shoot the- Yep. The-

1:01:44

it's like a big- Brick. It's

1:01:46

like a hard drive. It's like a hard drive. Why

1:01:48

would you just put- and you've got a gun. Put

1:01:50

a series of bullets through it. But also, like, everybody

1:01:52

heard you say that. So like- Yeah.

1:01:55

You wouldn't even need the recording, really. No, that's true. Yeah.

1:01:58

I don't know. where

1:02:00

Aaron Taylor-Johnson's security team, run

1:02:04

by the big red-headed goon, they

1:02:06

have a fight with the stunt team. That's a bit of

1:02:08

fun. And again, it's, you know, these

1:02:10

guys, don't know what they're up against. That's

1:02:12

a good, I think, I would have liked more of

1:02:14

that. Let's see a trained stunt

1:02:17

team fight like, like,

1:02:19

SAS guys or whatever, you know? Like, that could be

1:02:21

really- I think that would be a fairly short fight.

1:02:23

Sure, I know, but you know, I mean, I guess

1:02:25

they do do it, but I think I just, yeah,

1:02:27

I like that idea and I would have liked to

1:02:30

have seen more of that, you know? And of course,

1:02:32

in the post credits or the mid credits, we get

1:02:35

the death of Aaron Taylor-Johnson's character, who

1:02:38

is about to be arrested by,

1:02:40

guess what, Lee Majors. Oh my

1:02:42

God. From the original, the fore guy. I did

1:02:44

not recognise that at all. What did

1:02:46

you think was happening? So I thought, why is

1:02:48

this cop America? Yeah, right, yeah, yeah. But also,

1:02:50

he's not a cop. No. Because

1:02:52

they pretend police officers. It was Lee Majors and

1:02:55

Heather Thomas who were the two leads of the

1:02:57

original. Oh, okay. That's fun. They brought him back

1:02:59

and I think that's important. Well,

1:03:01

they didn't notice. Well, you should have noticed. Now

1:03:03

I've noticed. Yeah. Heather

1:03:06

Thomas is 66 years old and Lee

1:03:08

Majors is- I was

1:03:10

gonna say 78. Oh, you're probably right. Damn,

1:03:13

all right. Good for you, Lee Majors. Getting out

1:03:15

there, going to Sydney. Not Lee Minors. Nice.

1:03:19

You know? Yeah, oh yeah. All right, shall we

1:03:21

move it along? Let's move it along. But you

1:03:24

know what? Still worth it. If you're around, you

1:03:26

want to say it? I haven't saved movies, I don't think, but-

1:03:28

No. Yeah, I wonder how this will do,

1:03:30

generally speaking. I don't know. I don't know whether- What's the

1:03:32

word of mouth on something like this? Let's look it up.

1:03:35

They got it reviewed well. Did it? People

1:03:38

seem to be liking it, but again, it's not out everywhere in the world,

1:03:40

so. Maybe it'll- And again, we've got a

1:03:42

factor in that there are these people. I went to

1:03:44

Twitter and I went to search and I typed in

1:03:46

Twitter. Forget it. Don't worry. I

1:03:48

mean, are you gonna search on Twitter to see what this is? Yes,

1:03:50

yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not gonna worry about it, man. Okay, I'm not

1:03:52

gonna worry about it. I mean, do it, but don't worry about it,

1:03:54

really. I'm not gonna worry about it, actually, at all. Because it's just

1:03:57

gonna be nothing. Oh, there's

1:03:59

a moment. where we hear the six million

1:04:01

dollar man dinnin' in the... Yeah, yeah,

1:04:03

and that's a reference. No, I just remembered it. No, I

1:04:05

don't think it is. But it's in there. I don't think

1:04:08

it is. Yeah. All right. Should we let it

1:04:10

go? Let's let it go, all right? Go on,

1:04:12

let it go. Let it go. Let it go, for

1:04:14

God's sake. This will come up at the end of

1:04:16

the year in our Best of podcast and also the

1:04:18

bombs and hits videos depending on which way this goes.

1:04:20

Nice. Or maybe one of those ones that goes in

1:04:22

the middle and... Straight in the middle. Does it? Hasn't

1:04:25

impressed anybody. Yeah, man. Yeah. I'm

1:04:27

doing the thing. I can't believe

1:04:29

we made it to the what we're reading,

1:04:31

what we're gonna read segment. I

1:04:33

can. Which is the segment, don't interrupt, which

1:04:35

is the segment. Well, I can't believe we're

1:04:37

gonna ever do another one because I'm out of

1:04:39

here. I'm out of here. I mean,

1:04:41

I'm just gonna finish the podcast. Yeah, you got it. Yeah,

1:04:44

yeah, and then I'm gonna storm out. Yeah, but then we're

1:04:46

gonna do an episode next week. Snake

1:04:48

Eyes. Oh, yeah. Where we talk about things we've

1:04:50

been watching, reading, or listening to. Yeah. And

1:04:52

then we're gonna do a little bit of a... I'm gonna do a little bit of a...

1:04:54

I'm gonna do a little bit of a... I'm gonna do a little bit of a...

1:04:56

We talk about things we've been watching, reading, or listening to,

1:04:58

or whatever. That's right. Yeah, what do you got? I've started

1:05:01

watching Tooby. You know, the free service

1:05:03

that's... What's on Tooby? Tooby, well, that's the

1:05:05

thing about Tooby is, I saw

1:05:07

a tweet that was like, oh, there's a bunch of

1:05:09

stuff, new stuff on Tooby. Are you doing sponsored bits

1:05:11

behind my back? No, this is not a sponsored bit,

1:05:13

but I would take their money. So for people that...

1:05:15

Do they have it here? This is free. I don't

1:05:17

know if they have any money. Tooby is free. It's

1:05:19

a free streaming service, and it's

1:05:21

free, but you gotta watch ads sometimes. What is

1:05:24

this lineup of movies and shows? The

1:05:27

first time I encountered Tooby, I'm like,

1:05:29

this is all garbage. Okay, so

1:05:31

it's got like Black Adam, Adam

1:05:34

Sandler's The Waterboy, The Magic School Bus,

1:05:37

Dateline NBC. This

1:05:39

1:06:00

evil debris, but uh... Is it feeding us

1:06:02

1:06:04

depends on what you're looking at. The

1:06:07

These are different movies. They are. What's cyborg

1:07:42

about? The Van Damme movie. Yeah, I don't

1:07:44

1:07:49

sort of about cyborgs, not really. The

1:07:52

soldiers in universal soldier, they've

1:07:54

i just sets us that's that's that's

1:09:55

they call to action yeah outpaces you

1:09:57

have to was dead It's

1:10:00

got both the thing from

1:10:03

another world, the movie that inspired the movie, the

1:10:05

thing, and the sequel remake, the thing, that is

1:10:07

also prequel, but it does not have the thing.

1:10:09

That's incredible. I love all of that, mate. I

1:10:12

nearly got a couple of movies that I'm looking

1:10:14

for. It's got that movie, the artist. This is

1:10:16

like going through an abandoned video store. That's what

1:10:18

I'm saying. I think

1:10:21

you need to go in with the idea of

1:10:23

what you're looking for. What

1:10:26

is crime scene kitchen? What the fuck is

1:10:28

that? I don't know. It's

1:10:31

got Farmer Hates His Wife. It's

1:10:34

got Lego Masters, but maybe

1:10:36

not. It's got the movie that

1:10:38

I've seen clips of this, and

1:10:42

actually the next thing I'm probably going to

1:10:44

watch is a movie from 2019 called The Art of Self Defense.

1:10:47

It's got Jesse Eisenberg. Oh, yeah, that's supposed to be

1:10:49

good, isn't it? I never saw that when it came

1:10:51

out, and I'm looking forward to that. It's got that

1:10:53

MASH documentary from this year. I'm meaning to watch that.

1:10:55

I love a MASH documentary. Well, well,

1:10:57

well, look who's turned around on two of the mainstream

1:10:59

movies. I was never against it, Mason. It's

1:11:02

got something, I think it's a TV show called

1:11:05

Special Forces World's Toughest Tests. Yeah,

1:11:07

right. It's got all the Dolomite

1:11:09

movies, but not the Netflix Dolomite

1:11:11

movie. Well, exactly. Yeah, that's right.

1:11:13

There's a show apparently called Don't

1:11:15

Forget the Lyrics. Oh. I

1:11:18

guess that's another show called 25 Words

1:11:21

or Less. There's a lot of

1:11:23

Gordon Ramsay shows that aren't kitchen nightmares. Before

1:11:26

he hit it big, yeah, okay. Oh

1:11:28

my God, there's a TMZ investigate special

1:11:30

called 9-11 the Fifth Plane. There's a

1:11:32

William Shatner something, and it's just called

1:11:34

Get a Life. I don't know what

1:11:36

that is. There's a Britney Spears TMZ

1:11:38

documentary called Britney Spears Divorce and Despair.

1:11:41

Okay. Yeah. Wow.

1:11:44

There's Who Really Killed Michael Jackson. Wow. This

1:11:46

has got everything. There's a movie or

1:11:48

documentary, it's just called Bridge. Huh.

1:11:52

What do you think it's about? I don't know, it's a

1:11:54

picture of a bridge. Huh. Oh,

1:11:56

it's got a Grant Morrison documentary called Grant Morrison

1:11:58

Talking with Gods. These shows are fake. Yeah,

1:12:01

some of them seem fake if I'm honest with you.

1:12:03

Look at this one! It's just Jerry O'Connell and he's

1:12:05

got his arms crossed and it just says Pictionary! Pictionary!

1:12:08

And that's it! That's it! Amazing.

1:12:11

Wow. Wow, wow, wow. Wow.

1:12:14

Well, I think that's beautiful actually. The show called

1:12:16

Miss Black USA. Okay. Saints

1:12:19

and Sinners. God. Fascinating,

1:12:22

isn't it? These

1:12:24

shows are way more fascinating than the movies.

1:12:26

Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a show called Domino

1:12:29

Masters. Okay. Yeah. Do

1:12:31

you think it's related to Lego Masters? I think it is, yeah. Okay.

1:12:34

There is a lot of it. It's Tiger King but it's

1:12:36

not Tiger King. It's Team Z Investigates Tiger King. Okay, right.

1:12:38

There's a lot of kung fu on here. Like if you

1:12:40

like... I do. Like 70s,

1:12:43

early 80s, 60s kung fu, you know,

1:12:47

you probably have to watch on terrible quality

1:12:50

on YouTube. Now you can watch it on terrible

1:12:52

quality on TV and there's ads. There's a show

1:12:54

called Stars on Mars where celebrities go where no

1:12:56

one's gone before and see what it takes to

1:12:58

survive on Mars and it's done. William Shatner. There's

1:13:00

a lot of movies on here. It's a William

1:13:02

Shatner channel. Almost certainly. There's a lot of movies

1:13:04

on here that are... The

1:13:07

Wu-Tang Clan would have used for samples for their

1:13:09

own. Okay,

1:13:11

yeah. There's Team Z Presents, Arnold and

1:13:14

Sly, Rivals, Friends, Icons and

1:13:16

whatever and it goes for zero minutes

1:13:18

apparently. Okay. God. Anyway,

1:13:20

let's stop talking about Tubi. I mean, you're obsessed now.

1:13:22

Never stop talking about Tubi. You're obsessed with Tubi. It's

1:13:24

got street lights. You know what? None

1:13:26

of these even need to be on here. This

1:13:28

for me is enough. Yes. Just to

1:13:31

scroll through this. Uh-huh. Like I would...

1:13:33

Just be entertained by the idea of the memory. The real

1:13:35

dirty dancing. Yeah. Street Fighter 1994

1:13:37

is on here. Oh, the anim... The movie

1:13:39

1:13:42

yeah. The Sylvester Stallone movie Detox is on

1:13:44

here. Oh yeah. Ooh, Tombstone's Leaving

1:13:46

Stone. Yeah. This is regionalized

1:13:48

shoom as well, right? Yeah, because

1:13:50

the reason I went back to it is because somebody was...

1:13:52

I saw a tweet and somebody said, oh, it's got all

1:13:55

these movies on it. Like the... And

1:13:57

a lot of them were, but some of them also weren't. So

1:13:59

I assume it's a... regional like a yeah

1:14:04

oh idiocracy you know it's

1:14:06

like yeah that under

1:14:09

the bloody they should put it

1:14:11

to documentary the movie the man

1:14:13

who laughs that is by the

1:14:15

joke yeah it's got

1:14:18

Rob Schneider's the animal metropolis on here

1:14:20

the 1920s that

1:14:22

1:15:02

1:15:05

1:15:07

in the real did you do that yeah yeah okay

1:15:09

so you should watch it did you really do that

1:15:11

no okay I don't think I loved it as much

1:15:13

as everybody else okay why do you think that is

1:15:15

I just like I think it

1:15:17

was more because you

1:15:19

dumb yeah I'm a dumb guy um

1:15:22

I don't know because people are like this is what gamut zone

1:15:24

should have been and whatever but I I think

1:15:26

it's yeah I really really enjoyed it but I didn't

1:15:29

think it was like this is this is like better

1:15:31

cool soul yeah yeah you know what I mean I

1:15:33

didn't think it was like I think the

1:15:35

way people talking about it's like yeah that and I

1:15:37

didn't think it was that but I

1:15:39

did very much I did like it got the

1:15:41

47 ronin original from the 40 I

1:15:44

know the Keanu is it ever gonna be probably

1:15:46

maybe the sequel it is not in anyway Shogun

1:15:48

recommended they'll probably do another season they say they're

1:15:50

not gonna but I can they will yeah because

1:15:53

the book is only because it does the book

1:15:55

because the miniseries right yeah but I think they're

1:15:57

gonna come back to it because it everyone's talking

1:15:59

about about it. And the other one

1:16:02

I watched, which I hated, but it

1:16:05

was very good and I hated it was Baby Reindeer.

1:16:08

Okay, now this is a story about a, it's a stand

1:16:10

up, it's based on a real life situation. It's a stand

1:16:12

up comedian who has a heckler slash

1:16:14

stalker that becomes obsessed with them. Is

1:16:16

that right? Exactly. Yeah,

1:16:19

it's really uncomfortable. Anyway, so the show Pictionary from

1:16:21

2014 starring Jerry O'Connell. Celebrities enjoy

1:16:23

the classic game, which has teammates competing to

1:16:26

guess words and phrases based on each other's

1:16:28

best attempts at drawings. So it's just Pictionary.

1:16:30

I love that. What channel it was on?

1:16:33

Maybe the Game Show Network or something in

1:16:35

America? It's Richard Gad, who's in it, and

1:16:37

Jessica Gunning who plays the stalker. It's

1:16:40

an incredible series and it's very personal

1:16:42

and like it highlights abuse

1:16:44

and like, and it's very, like if

1:16:46

that's something that, you know, that affects

1:16:48

you that you're uncomfortable with, absolutely do

1:16:50

not, do not watch this because

1:16:52

it's very, I wouldn't say so much

1:16:55

graphic because it's not like you see specifically

1:16:57

what's happening, but there's glimpses of things and

1:16:59

it's, it's, it's a very hard watch. It's

1:17:02

also, it's pretty short. It's only like six

1:17:04

episodes and 20 minutes a piece

1:17:06

or something like that. But it's, I

1:17:08

re I get it's, it's like very

1:17:11

well made. It's just very not

1:17:14

fun, which is not a criticism. I'm just

1:17:16

saying that

1:17:18

like more or less fun than the

1:17:21

show than the show beef. Remember the beef? No

1:17:23

beef is like fictional. A lot of the stuff

1:17:25

like real. But this is intended

1:17:27

to be, yeah, no, it's

1:17:29

definitely grimier than as I understand

1:17:31

it. It's fictional, but a lot

1:17:34

of people have immediately figured out

1:17:36

who, yeah. So there's some, there's

1:17:38

like a, the stalker people have found this

1:17:40

woman and I think the abuser who's in

1:17:42

this, they found that guy as well. But,

1:17:46

that's my understanding, but I

1:17:48

don't know. I didn't look into it. Even The

1:17:50

creator came out and said the point of the show

1:17:52

wasn't for you to find these people. Right. It wasn't

1:17:54

like a, wasn't supposed to be treasure hunters. But

1:17:56

It's interesting cause like he has this stalker and

1:17:58

it's not just that like. The stock on

1:18:00

This is A Nightmare are You talked

1:18:03

about and explores how the carnival succeeds

1:18:05

into because he's also like is not

1:18:07

well. Young. A lonely arms and

1:18:09

legs astana to and yes and it's not

1:18:12

like not and like a victim blaming kind

1:18:14

of why I run on just like it

1:18:16

they did to on well people. In

1:18:19

their own wife he ended his coat of

1:18:21

anyway and a wise and yeah ah but

1:18:23

again like it some. Height

1:18:25

as it's great but it was been very

1:18:28

I guess that's that is a recommendation that

1:18:30

my calls me not to watch. It was

1:18:32

your spot. It is very good. Yeah Camera

1:18:34

on. I have what I've read this yet

1:18:37

but there's a new Dick Tracy added. You

1:18:39

know that's what's yes needed Tracy. Through.

1:18:41

Mad Tv Studios. Oh my God. Nick. Mad

1:18:43

Cave is exactly right. He's brought in a

1:18:45

drawer it himself. I thought he would he

1:18:48

to do it Senate sort of the it.

1:18:50

It seems to be a sort of a

1:18:52

rape reboots but the Ah doesn't look that

1:18:54

up. I said is there enough less of

1:18:56

a comic strip? It's it's They've given on

1:18:58

a more of cinematic approach. A lot cinema

1:19:00

always look at it and going yes I

1:19:02

am ratio. There's some appropriate you know, Tommy

1:19:27

Please read this comic that. I wrote with

1:19:42

Nick size. Ten. Out

1:19:44

of ten or I bagged out of

1:19:47

hopes up to just feel as though

1:19:49

well but he shot me to death.

1:19:51

This guy, you're gonna jilin' a body

1:19:53

bags? what's a full. of

1:19:56

an hour or lakers the prisoners going to

1:19:58

me yet early years Yeah, yeah. All right. Anything

1:20:00

else you've been reading? No, that's about it. I think. Cool,

1:20:03

man. That's cool. Yeah, it is very cool. Yeah. We should

1:20:05

do another segment. I agree. I've been reading letters. Oh, yeah.

1:20:07

It's a good segue. We can cut out the bit where

1:20:09

I said I haven't been reading anything else. And I can

1:20:11

say I've been reading. You want me to cut that out,

1:20:13

dude? If you could cut it out. That's not my job

1:20:15

anymore. Doesn't matter. Collings who edits this, that's his job. You

1:20:17

tell him that. Okay. And also

1:20:19

you have to pay extra. I have to

1:20:22

pay. You have to go back. Yeah, we pay

1:20:24

more. Well, I don't want to. Because I think

1:20:26

this actually made a better risk. And

1:20:29

also, I think the listeners can imagine that. Oh,

1:20:31

yeah. They can skip ahead. If I make this exactly

1:20:34

45 seconds per minute,

1:20:36

then they can just skip ahead. Of this? Yep. Okay. They'll

1:20:38

have to listen to the whole thing ahead. Yeah. Once already.

1:20:41

But then go back. But then go back and then

1:20:43

it can be like, you can be like, hey, have you

1:20:45

been reading anything else? And I can be

1:20:47

like, yeah, letters. That's

1:20:50

perfect. And here's the letters theme. I'm ready. The

1:20:54

classic one was the letters. You really

1:20:56

felt that I found that volume. Right. Yeah. Took a

1:20:58

while. You got there. Could have done an off air,

1:21:00

but I chose to do it on air. No. It's

1:21:03

real. We're going to do that. It's the room. It's

1:21:05

the room though as well. Because you can't test

1:21:07

it. That's true. I would have to show up

1:21:09

at your house at odd times during the week

1:21:11

and be like, can I test the letters? Yeah.

1:21:13

What's bloody, what's bloody new? Yeah. What's bloody. He

1:21:15

came in the middle of our dinner today. Unbelievable.

1:21:17

You said show up early. Just walked right in.

1:21:19

You said show up early. Just walked right in.

1:21:21

Didn't even know. You sent a text that I

1:21:23

will put on Instagram with your real phone number.

1:21:27

And you said come show up early. I'm

1:21:29

ready now. Show up early. I

1:21:31

want you to watch me eat my dinner. Right. And

1:21:33

you were like, we don't have any more food. And

1:21:35

I'd say that I would have

1:21:37

if I had of look, I wasn't even

1:21:39

cooking dinner not to throw anybody under the

1:21:41

bus, but if I had to throw

1:21:43

anybody under your bus, it was clear I would have

1:21:45

had that did a ready before. Mm hmm. Yeah. Is

1:21:47

all I'm saying. Because you would have bunged it in

1:21:49

the microwave for two minutes. No, I'm an excellent. I'm

1:21:51

an OK to excellent cook. I'm OK. I love that.

1:21:54

I do a lot of cooking. I do. I would even say more

1:21:56

than half. Yeah, that's right. Oh, things

1:21:58

have changed, haven't they? No, Mason, I've

1:22:00

always done that. I'm in society. Yeah, society,

1:22:03

certainly. Yeah, oh yeah. And then for

1:22:05

the worst, I'd rather not cook at all. I love any

1:22:07

meal that I don't have to cook if somebody puts a

1:22:09

meal in front of me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fucking

1:22:11

incredible. I don't care what it is. Cafe culture, you know

1:22:13

what I mean? Yeah, you can't get any food anywhere else

1:22:15

in the world. That's exactly right. Anyways, if

1:22:17

1:22:33

an ML from Liz. Liz says, Hi guys,

1:22:35

I'm a pretty new listener. I started listening because my

1:22:37

husband loves your show so much and I started listening

1:22:39

recently so I can talk to him about new episodes.

1:22:41

That's nice. He started listening last year

1:22:43

while I was pregnant and your show made a huge difference

1:22:46

in his life last summer. Our daughter will

1:22:48

be one year old on April 29th. She

1:22:50

was one three months early, spent several months in the NICU.

1:22:52

Yeah, that is hard, man. That's right. Before she was able

1:22:54

to come home, my husband listened to your show on the

1:22:57

many, many drives to and from the hospital in another city

1:22:59

to go visit her and I really think this podcast helped

1:23:01

him get through a difficult time. I know it would mean

1:23:03

a lot to him to hear a shout out or a

1:23:05

happy birthday to our daughter, Emma.

1:23:07

Shout out to us, happy birthday, Emma. That's right. That's

1:23:10

incredible. Yeah. Unbelievable. That's

1:23:12

right. I mean, you haven't told us your husband's

1:23:14

name. No. Big Emma. Big

1:23:17

Emma. That's right. Big Mr. Emma. Shout out

1:23:19

to you, Big Mr. Emma. Yeah. You're

1:23:22

working hard out there. You're probably making more than half the dinners. No doubt.

1:23:25

And if you're not, why not? And if

1:23:27

not, when? Yeah, that's right. Exactly. That's

1:23:29

right. Well, now that's really kind of you to

1:23:32

say, I'm glad your daughter Emma is doing so

1:23:34

much better and you and you lose and also

1:23:36

Big Emma. Big Emma. Mr. Big Emma. Yeah,

1:23:39

that's really nice to hear. Like, that is

1:23:41

like, I mean, I can't

1:23:43

even imagine like, oh, just stressful.

1:23:45

Yeah. And awful and

1:23:47

bad. But that's. But now everything's

1:23:49

cool. Everything's cool and everything's fine and everything will be that way.

1:23:52

And we did that. Yeah. I

1:23:54

think that's cool. Yep. Yeah. We're

1:23:57

pretty selfless. Exactly. Yeah.

1:24:00

Yeah. Who do you think gave

1:24:02

your daughter that intensive care? That

1:24:04

was us in the hospital. I'm not going to

1:24:06

know. You're not

1:24:08

going to claim that we provided essential medical

1:24:10

attention in another country. No,

1:24:12

I'm not. Interesting. All right.

1:24:17

It was just Mason by himself. That's

1:24:19

right. Thank you. Thank you. All

1:24:26

right. Should we? I'll be wearing a mask. You

1:24:28

couldn't. Yeah, you can. Oh, yeah. Of course. Yeah,

1:24:30

that could be anybody. That was a lovely letter.

1:24:32

Thank you. That's right. This is from not another

1:24:34

needless sequel. Oh, hashtag with your planet pod. Hey,

1:24:37

guys, I was wondering if you had any sequels

1:24:39

that you were initially shocked to hear were happening,

1:24:41

but ultimately loved. And we're glad they're happening upon

1:24:43

viewing. Piers, thanks for the awesome pod full of

1:24:45

positivity. You're welcome. Blade Runner 2040. Yes,

1:24:48

absolutely. For sure. I

1:24:51

think we talked about this recently. Mad Max. Mad

1:24:53

Max. Absolutely. I never thought that would work out.

1:24:55

Yeah, there's no there is there. I mean, you

1:24:57

know, but was that before our policy

1:25:00

of anything can be good? I don't know. Even then I

1:25:02

would have been like, I don't know,

1:25:04

because he's the happy feet guy now. Yeah,

1:25:06

lost it as he lost it. Because you

1:25:08

encounter all these stars

1:25:10

and especially comedians. You're like,

1:25:13

oh, actually, actually,

1:25:15

you can't even be funny anymore. Oh, my

1:25:17

God. And it's not it's not that you

1:25:19

it's they've lost us. Yeah. And I was

1:25:22

like, well, he's probably lost it. Yeah. How

1:25:24

how how wrong I was. You were so

1:25:26

wrong. I would say, what do we got

1:25:28

here? I had one. I have. I'm

1:25:31

sure with aliens, I was like, don't do don't

1:25:33

make aliens. But I wasn't I was like three

1:25:36

when that movie came out. So that's what

1:25:38

you thought. I think after Mission Impossible, too,

1:25:40

I was like, I think this is obviously

1:25:42

done. Like I didn't. Sure. Yeah, that's right.

1:25:45

And now we're in a position where everybody

1:25:47

ranks them differently. And everybody is impossible. That's right.

1:25:49

That's what I say. Everybody's correct. Now, you know,

1:25:51

you know, you didn't think Evan or Mikey was

1:25:53

going to be very good, but you loved it.

1:25:56

I do. I love it. I'm

1:25:58

an F head. Yep. Predatives. I

1:26:00

didn't think I was ever thought that was gonna be

1:26:02

bad, but it was good one I

1:26:05

mean, I think the fact that prey was any

1:26:07

good. No, I thought prey I like I like

1:26:09

the idea Yeah, that I

1:26:11

was like yeah, okay. Yeah, God

1:26:14

what else Mason any others? There

1:26:16

must be heaps. I bet there is

1:26:18

sequels that surpass the original Oh, we can look at

1:26:20

a little and we go yes, I do and we

1:26:22

go yeah, we knew it would be good We knew

1:26:25

all we knew it'd be good actually Well better call

1:26:27

Saul. That's kind of a prequel under sequel and doesn't

1:26:29

surpass Oh, you thought Kingsman 2 wasn't gonna be very

1:26:31

good and it wasn't it wasn't good. I was right

1:26:33

I just thought that was gonna be good. No, but

1:26:35

then Kingsman three Can't

1:26:38

been prequel. Oh, yeah, things man. We

1:26:40

thought that would probably be bad and it was good Yeah,

1:26:42

I didn't mind it and they had Hitler in it Yeah,

1:26:44

which is not why I liked it. Hmm. Just want to

1:26:46

1:31:48

sixty four on a radio station and

1:31:50

ninety nine ron paul reiser the star

1:31:52

wars game by doing a say three

1:31:55

blah impersonation a aaa was the crowds

1:31:57

you're at i'd say that to other

1:31:59

people I've told this story a million times and

1:32:02

they said, what

1:32:04

we're gonna do, because I was doing it

1:32:06

one every week, we're gonna bring all the people

1:32:08

in who won and did the best impression and

1:32:10

we're gonna do a parody Star Wars trailer. Nice,

1:32:12

I love that. And that never happened. And I

1:32:14

was like, I don't wanna do that. I was

1:32:16

like in high school and I'm like, I don't

1:32:18

wanna do that, I just want the Nintendo 64

1:32:21

and thank God they didn't do it. So

1:32:23

me and my dad drove into the Triple

1:32:25

M Studios and I picked up my Nintendo

1:32:28

64 and I said, see you idiots. Nice.

1:32:31

And we left. Nice. And it was incredible.

1:32:34

A free Nintendo 64. The

1:32:36

best feeling, I

1:32:38

couldn't win something now that would give me that

1:32:40

feeling. No, absolutely not. Like if I won a

1:32:42

car, I'd be like, don't have a car. Yeah,

1:32:45

that's right. There's nothing, because I couldn't have bought

1:32:47

one. Yeah. I wasn't gonna get one. That's right.

1:32:49

And then one just fucking fell out of the

1:32:51

sky basically. It changed your life. It did, Mason.

1:32:53

Yeah, that's right. I got golden eye and I

1:32:55

got perfect dark and I got more combat form.

1:32:58

And you got pink eye, but that was unrelated.

1:33:00

No, I didn't. It was all the

1:33:02

poo you put in your, well, you got poo on

1:33:04

your head. No, Mason. You put it in your eye. I still had that

1:33:06

64, but no, there was

1:33:08

nothing. You still have pink eye. No, Mason.

1:33:10

Interesting. It's a different eye. Okay. But

1:33:13

seriously, I'm trying to think, is there anything that could give

1:33:15

me that? I mean, obviously kids, et cetera. Oh yeah, sure.

1:33:17

But I mean like a physical thing. Even

1:33:20

if someone's like, you want a house. I

1:33:22

would be ecstatic, like incredible, but it

1:33:25

would not give me that feeling. No,

1:33:27

you're right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1:33:29

Yeah, wow. That's youth. Oh,

1:33:31

that's youth, isn't it? How excited was I just there? I'm

1:33:34

so excited. More excited than you've been for

1:33:36

most things in the last decade, probably. No,

1:33:39

yeah, maybe. Yeah, it was a big moment

1:33:41

for me. So you've never won. Cause

1:33:43

also I know people who do this, just

1:33:46

enter everything. Just enter everything. And I don't mean like

1:33:48

page and went to stuff. No. Anything

1:33:51

you come across, and obviously also not

1:33:53

like scam websites and stuff. I'm talking

1:33:55

like competitions in your area. Fill out

1:33:57

a thing at your supermarket to win.

1:33:59

You know what, if you enter everything and you

1:34:01

will eventually win something. That is so true, yeah. Because

1:34:03

people like me most of the time just go, this

1:34:06

is not worth the effort. I won't bother and then

1:34:08

they get two entries. And I fucking hate signing up

1:34:10

for shit. I went to get some AirPods the other

1:34:12

day because I've lost my AirPods, Nathan. I am. Anyway.

1:34:16

I've got those AirPods insured. Yeah. And I

1:34:18

went in there, well, okay. So I went in there and

1:34:20

the guy- Here we go, another classic Games rant. Probably my

1:34:22

ex. It's not a rant, it's just what happened. Oh yeah,

1:34:24

here we go. And I'm like, can I get these AirPods

1:34:26

or whatever? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's like, cool. I'm behind

1:34:28

the case so you've got to speak to a person. Yeah,

1:34:30

yeah, yeah. I understand that it's fucking annoying.

1:34:32

Yeah, yeah. And then he was like, do you want

1:34:34

to get the Apple Care? And

1:34:36

I'm like, nah, I don't want that. And

1:34:39

he goes- That's for virgins, you say. Yeah, that's

1:34:41

what I said. And he goes, ugh. And he

1:34:43

rolls his eyes. Yeah, classic virgins. I'm like, okay.

1:34:45

All right. And then he goes, what carrier

1:34:47

are you with? And I'm like, why? And

1:34:51

he's like, well, because if you're with

1:34:53

Telstra or whoever, that means that we

1:34:55

can put this onto your plan or whatever. And I'm like, no.

1:34:59

I just said no. Yeah, right. And he goes,

1:35:01

well, I was a bit polite over that. Yeah,

1:35:03

yeah, yeah. And he again, oh,

1:35:05

okay, rolls his eyes. And I'm just going to

1:35:07

be like, are you fucking right? Like what are

1:35:10

you doing? Yeah, right. Yeah. And

1:35:12

then he's like, okay, I'll fix you up

1:35:15

at the counter then. So he walks up

1:35:17

to the counter. This is a real classic

1:35:19

personality. I see, definitely. I see him go

1:35:21

to the counter, turn around and leave. And

1:35:23

I'm just standing there, I'm like, what's happening?

1:35:26

And I'm standing there for like five minutes and I

1:35:28

see him a few feet back from

1:35:30

the counter just chatting to another guy. And

1:35:32

they're like, are you okay? Like the other people. And

1:35:34

I'm like, I'm waiting for this guy, I think. I

1:35:37

don't know. And then more time passes

1:35:39

and he's still chatting. And then I'm like, okay, I'm going

1:35:41

to go and talk to this guy again. I don't want

1:35:44

to, but okay. And then they're like, oh, sorry, what's going

1:35:46

on? I'm like, this guy here is supposed to, he's

1:35:48

bringing up my AirPods. And they're like, oh yeah,

1:35:51

they're here. So he just walked up, put them

1:35:53

at an empty desk and left. Whoa,

1:35:56

this fucking guy. Oh, you got a new nemesis.

1:35:58

I don't remember what he looks like. That's

1:36:00

a shame so JB. Hi, you're trying to get
