My Mom's Basement - FRIDAY BONUS EPISODE 12 - BOTCHED 'INFINITY WAR' COMMENTARY WITH CLEM

Episode Date: September 27, 2019

Robbie and Clem attempted to record an 'Avengers: Infinity War' commentary this week, but unfortunately, due to technical difficulties, had to stop about an hour into it. Boooo! We'll re-attempt soon, but for now, enjoy this mini clip-show I've put together containing some funny moments from the original file. -RobbieYou can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

Hey My Mom's Basement listeners, you can find our episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube, and Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. In case you missed it, we recorded a commentary track for Avengers Endgame a few weeks back, and people seemed to dig it. You guys were asking for an Infinity War commentary track to go along with the Endgame, you know, so you could watch one and to the other presumably. And we did about an hour, we did about 51 minutes of commentary over Avengers Infinity War, and it was a fucking blast. We were laughing, we were arguing, we were getting into a bunch of random topics as well, and about 51 minutes in, the video started lagging, and if you know anything about how commentary tracks and stuff like that works, I mean, it just ruins the entire podcast. If you can't be synced up with a viewer the entire time, there's basically no point in

doing a commentary track at all. So we had to call it. We had to call the game an hour in, and we're going to get together and hopefully redo it next week, maybe the week after. Our schedules are always fucked up as things tend to be here at Barstool. But what I've done here is I've gone into the podcast and I've tried to splice out the little clips that make sense without the context of the podcast, without the context of the movie. Just a few funny moments.

It's going to be a very brief podcast today, but I felt bad putting nothing out and especially getting nothing out of an hour's worth of podcasting and commentary that I felt was very funny. So here's a couple clips from that commentary track, the last of which very much pertains to Infinity War, and specifically Captain America's first scene in the movie. Captain America's first scene, Black Widow's first scene, Falcon's first scene. It's the entire fight that goes on in the train station in Scotland. I will be back on Monday with a very special episode featuring Justin Kroll of Variety. Justin Kroll is probably one of the best, I mean, definitely a top five, top three film reporter in the game right now. He has all of the biggest scoops, and he's been a friend of Barstool for a very long time, so it was cool getting to talk to him and really dive into what the business, what the industry of reporting on film is like, and just as a movie fan, talk to

him about what he's excited for for the rest of the year. So without further ado, here's the weird-ass clip show that I put together out of mine and Clem's botched Avengers Infinity War commentary track. Enjoy. Also, do you think Wong got the fish,

the beef, or the chicken? Hmm. Because I have an answer I think is definitely right. I think Wong got the beef. I said fish. Oh, wow. That was my initial. I was thinking fish oh wow that was my that was my initial i was

thinking fish but i was like you know what wong's a bit of a bulky guy that's true yeah i might have got the beef he goes with the red meat what do you go for at a wedding if you got that like always it's the most expensive one it's the one that takes the most time to cook you have to do it right so i always i'm not a fish guy i also love if you get like a nice steak with the side of mashed potatoes mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes are the goat side for me. Yeah, me too. And you need some of the soak up that booze.

You know what I mean? It's going to be a long night at the wedding. Definitely. Best steak I ever had was at my brother's wedding. Still. Still. Which is and I think my brother says the same thing. And I think his wife says the same thing, which is very weird because it wasn't like,

you know, it wasn't like a steakhouse like catered or anything. It was just like the wedding venue. Do you know the name of the venue? We have to try this out. It was in Michigan. It was all the way in Michigan. I go to Michigan. If this steak is that good.

It was crazy good. When I do my Halloween costume, I want Sienna to dress as baby Gamora. So then we can, or young Gamora. Because she's kind of that age. And I'd love to just us both like, I'd have the Thanos. What kind of Thanos are you going for? I'm going, I think I'm going to go Infinity War Thanos. Because I want to wear the gloves. Are you going to go with like what kind of Thanos are you going for? I'm going. I think I'm going to go infinity worth that because I want to go with like a mask.

Are you going like purple face paint or what do you got? So can I do for purple face paint? Is that problematic? Because it's it's a dark color, but he's a light purple. I honestly I think purple is OK. Right. I think she's going to be green, especially like Thanos purple. I think you're fine with it. I just can't put a picture on the Internet, basically.

Yeah, true. That's been articles written. It's appropriation for the Mad Titan. Now I want to bring this up because you just mentioned that Sienna had this hysterical, like weird, obscure reference to this movie. Trent had one of those to Batman forever over the last weekend. So it was the 80th anniversary of Batman as a character. I was all in the spirit putting on Batman movies. They were on TV.

I flip on TNT, and they had Batman Forever on, which is, if you're not aware, the one with Val Kilmer playing Batman. And it's got Jim Carrey as the Riddler and Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face. Trent turns to me, and he goes, oh, I've seen this. Is this the one where a villain comes up, they take over a party, and then Batman shows up, and Jim Carrey goes, his entrance was good,

yours was better. And I was like, that's what you remember out of this movie? I texted my brother afterwards, and I just had to tell him how obscure that was, and he said, my brother said he thought that line was in the trailer. So maybe that's why Trent remembered it so specifically.

I could see that. But I laughed so hard when he, I was like, yeah, I mean, that's word for word, the scene that happens. It's a weird scene to bring up from this movie. People drew barrymore's in that i was gonna say i was actually saying the the white dress and the black dress yeah they're good in bed also major respect to drax for the way he just goes after thanos here

like i mean he fucked the team in the end but, but he's balls to the wall committing. That's Drax. He did the End Guardians 1. He literally calls Ronan the Accuser. My daughter calls him Ronan the Accuser, and I'm like, I am so proud of you for knowing Ronan, let alone Ronan the Accuser. It's a sick nickname. If you could be like a The, The Accuser is such a ridiculously preposterous name. I kind of love it. It is The Accuser, though.

You're kind of a snitch, Like Takashi the Accuser. Oh, is that what they're calling him? They're calling him like a snitch? Is that what Ronan is, though? A snitch? I don't know. I don't think so. I feel like I wouldn't want to be called an accuser. It's just like a weird-ass name.

I kind of dig it. But now that you say that, he's Takashi the Accuser. Takashi the Accuser. That's actually a pretty good rap name. When you go back to Takashi, you could have that. Trust me, I'm not looking for any beef with you. I've seen a lot of people upset that they're bringing the Emperor back in The Rise of Skywalker, quoting that it invalidates or makes Vader's sacrifice way less.

I don't understand that train of thought whatsoever because Vader's sacrifice was for Luke. He did save Luke. If he didn't make that sacrifice, the Emperor would have killed Luke after Luke said, I'm not coming to the dark side with you. So I don't think bringing the Emperor back, and even if he is, if the Emperor comes back in Episode 9 and somehow survived the fall,

which I don't know if he will survive the fall. I don't know what's going on. I don't think that invalidates Vader's sacrifice at all. No, it's the act that matters. Just because the war kept going on, guess what? If that's what invalidates the sacrifice, The Force Awakens invalidates it by that. Which, if you want to say that too, then say that.

That's fine. I have no problem with that. If that's what you're going with, but it's like I would rather have more Star Wars than have a sacrifice invalidated. It does. Like, it will be kind of ridiculous. So if it's like, oh, Darth Maul's alive. Emperor.

Like, it's like, we can't just keep bringing people back at some point. Yeah. I understand that side of it. No resurrections needs to be said in one of these movies now, you know? Exactly. And speaking of, there are some people around these parts. I hate to say this. I think this is the most overrated scene in the history of fucking scenes.

Oh, shut up. Everyone thinks this scene is so great. I'm not even, I reject your hypothesis. I'm not even going to entertain this being an overrated scene. This is fucking awesome. Falcon comes in, crashes through the whole window. It's like, oh shit, the gang is back together. The government's after them.

They don't give a fuck. They're still protecting their Avengers. Now, let me say, I mean, when Cap comes out from the train, Cap doesn't do much for me. But I'm not a Cap guy, so I'm just saying this is not a Cap guy. He comes out with a fucking beard, too. Come on, Clem. As a guy that has upped his brand by growing a beard.

Come on. He doesn't have the shield. He's a system quarterback. He's built on the he's built he's he's a he's a system quarterback he's built on the shield and the look quarterback shut up clem that's such a stupid thing to say i love him i love his guts i love his like courage quarterback wouldn't have jumped on that grenade and boot camp and that i knew you were gonna bring that up because that is the one thing that kind of brings me back to him at all times. You know that. I know it. I know it. That's why I brought it up. Well done.

Well done. That's why I brought it up. Now, and I'm just going to say this take now instead of waiting until when it happens. The only fucking person with a brain. This is why this entire Infinity War happens and all that things in Endgame. It's because fucking this guy, Mr. Cap himself, Mr. fucking Courage and Heart and all, rah-rah team. Tony would have been like, all right, we got to kill Vision, kill his ass, and they would have killed him. And Thanos never snaps away half of the entire universe. Where Cap's like, we don't trade lives for this.

Oh, don't do that voice for him. He doesn't sound like that. He doesn't sound like that. That's what it sounds like when he is. We don't trade lives. That's the thing in the Avengers. It's like, where do you draw the line then? You know what I mean?

Where do you draw the line? Do you trade Tony's life? Well, we did. We traded Tony's life. That's exactly what happened. But he made that choice, bro. He made that choice. Tony made that choice.

Yeah. So I wish. Don't get on cap for a choice that your guy made. He's not even alive. It's like, we're not talking, you know, is it the third trimester or the second trimester? He's a fucking computer. He's not alive.
