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.
We're about to watch it.
We're about to provide an entire commentary track.
Everyone's been saying, you know, we did a couple Endgame podcasts.
I'm sure you got the same tweets as I did.
I wish I could have watched this movie next to you.
Well, now you can.
What we're doing is we're going to give you the chance to pause it, give you the chance to set up your own digital copy of Endgame, and we're going to say boot it up.
We bought it on iTunes.
So if you want to do that, buy it on iTunes.
Go full screen with it and then scroll all the way back to zero, and we'll give you like a 3, 2, 1, go.
When I say go, you press the space bar at the same time I'm pressing the space bar.
It will sync up.
This is – I know it's confusing i wish
that our commentary track could be just included on the dvd so you could select it there but i
don't think marvel is uh that comfy cozy with us yet we can't even get fucking uh comic-con
credentials so you let alone but hey kevin feige is like a god to us right now so maybe maybe by
the the end of this next phase will be you know selectable commentary
on there yeah hopefully so it's such an outrageous thing to even think of so here we go uh pause it
if you need to get set up go to itunes go to voodoo wherever you bought this movie go full
screen it scroll the uh little ticker back to zero zero zero and on the count of three well
i'll press spacebar together now don't be alar. The first like six or seven seconds of this movie are just a plain black screen.
And then you should see the first scene with Hawkeye.
So here we go.
Three, two, one, play.
And we're off.
And we kick off with a cold open.
Now, this I thought would be the opening scene of endgame
when we saw it in the trailer i really think they would do it the way they did it here where it's a
cold open and it is completely jarring you see clint's wearing his uh little house arrest badge
from civil war there still and his daughter he calls her hawkeye for the first time ever there
that was the first time I think it was said
in the whole franchise.
It was fucking crazy.
And this was an immediate,
like, your heart drops
watching this family.
They're joking around
about who wants mayo on a hot dog,
mustard on a hot dog,
whatever it is.
That got killed every time I heard it.
I know.
Every theater,
it always killed with like,
who has ketchup on a hot dog?
Yeah.
Which, growing up as a kid
ketchup was an
acceptable thing
but as you get older
it's like
I don't understand that
I like ketchup
on my hot dog
oh boy
you're gonna get
the ketchup
my number one
is the chili
I love a chili dog
with just chili on it
I don't even like
chili beans
I'm a very plain guy
but when you do
oh shit
here she goes
to get the arrow
and this was every single time i saw the theater had like a visceral reaction of like when he turns
around right here oh i got goosebumps they just went oh goosebumps count one for clem goosebumps
count one for robbie and then they turn around to that entire family and there's just an empty
field holy fuck i got goosebumps that's too um it guts you they just got you right off the bat
they do uh i talked in our last endgame podcast about being a dad and i was like if my family
just disappeared i mean there would be a moment of like oh man i can do whatever i want and then i
then i'd be like kevin mccallister i made my family disappear and then it'd be like i feel
like what the fuck i don't know if it's even set in just how
like heavy this the snap is like even to this day heavy and do you think in this moment hawkeye like
his character do you think he's like something something super villainy is going on right here
yeah i gotta be right i think so the battles yeah yeah i mean his intro here they've edited out
every single superhero decimated by the snap oh Oh, I didn't even notice that.
That's fucking brilliant.
The fantasy.
This came on shuffle on my iPhone the other day, and I just started wailing it out.
And Sienna goes, that's on my playlist.
It's one of those songs that it's like the finale song from Breaking Bad, My Baby Blue.
I'll always just associate it with that one moment, like that one moment in time.
I love this.
Paper football, and they're playing with what appears to be like metal paper.
Just a little futuristic nod there.
Yep.
I love playing paper football.
Me and my mom used to play paper football.
We used to have paper football nights.
Now, as a young'un that was in this, obviously you did with Ma Dukes, but that was big in the lunchroom back in the day.
Is that still big in lunchrooms since you were there somewhere recently?
I remember I used to try to introduce it to my friends, and they used to be like, this is stupid.
Let's play on our Nintendo DS.
Oh, man.
God damn.
I mean, digital age.
It's another relic of the past.
I loved it, though.
You know, I actually, if we're being honest With ourselves here I used paper football
To flirt a little
In middle school
Ooh
Chicks sitting across from me
Would be like
Hey you ever play paper football
I still can't make a paper football
I'm a grown ass man
I have a mortgage
A wife and two kids
And I couldn't make
If you pay me
Or the
You remember the little
Fortune teller things
Yeah well those things
Were fucking
Those were a complete trip for you
But the paper football
I remember you had to like
Fold it and then you
Would have to rip
Like a little piece
Of the paper off first It would have to be a square i think perfect square
fucking talk about heavy we're starting this movie off i think about my nephew seeing this
movie four years old five years old now actually just turned five i'm like jesus christ
he's gone just i i just couldn't believe how skinny he was.
There was no...
No one had on-set pictures of him looking like this, right?
No, I don't know how much was CGI either.
I don't know if he lost a ton of weight
because I know they filmed this and Infinity War
pretty much the same time.
That's right.
They did pretty much the Kill Bill effect with it.
And Quentin Tarantino just came out and said
Kill Bill is officially not two movies.
He's like, I'm telling you, it's one movie.
He's like, I made one movie.
They made me put it out as volume one, volume two.
He's like, I made one movie.
I wonder what the Russo brothers would say about Endgame and Infinity War.
I bet they would say it's two movies.
We need to do a goddamn – I just need to do a double viewing, if not a double commentary, if not just live it and put it into my blood.
I wonder if they could do some kind of edit where they bleed into each other.
It's got to be, right?
Well, yeah.
I guess you would just really have to add in a title card before you skip to the Mr. Fantasy part.
Because you could edit in Clint watching his family go into the end of Infinity War.
No doubt about it.
That's true.
And you would have to add like a 30 days later.
However many days it's
been you know what i mean because it would go from the last thing you see with nick fury disappearing
right and then the beeper dropping and then it goes to or i was i was even saying you could have
all that happen intertwined you could have like clint watching his family disappear as right after
like black panther goes cut to him cut to that and then add to go to Fury after that or intertwined
with that. Like have the helicopter go down.
And cut away. Cut back to Wakanda. Cut back
to Fury or something like that. I don't know. I'm sure
it could be done. There's fan edits of
Rogue One. What's his name? Topher Gray. I want
Topher Gray to do everything. I ask him to do every edit.
There's fan edits of Rogue One and
Two A New Hope that are so well done that
I'm like if you could do that you could definitely do
this.
Very emotional speech from Tony
and we had seen it in the trailer. It was probably
the thing that we saw the most of in the trailer,
but it still got me going in the theater.
I remember this was the first time my eyes welled up
in the theater. I was like, Jesus Christ,
what are we?
We're five minutes and 44 seconds in
and I was welling up already.
I hate to say it but seeing that
you know seeing him in like the outfit in the trailer and stuff it kind of bummed me out because
i i thought there was a chance we weren't going to see him for half the movie i wouldn't say it
bummed me out but i just knew this wasn't going to be a big deal yeah but i mean it's not like
they're going to kill tony stark of you know starvation in space 10 minutes not yet bro not
yet they will r.i.p my dog tony. Do you think he's wearing Nebula's jacket here?
Ooh, I didn't think about that.
Kind of adorable if he is, you know?
Yeah.
And just seeing, like we said, Nebula getting a little smile during the Chinese football game.
It's like her moment of growth and realizing that 2012 Nebula or 2014 Nebula.
And such a great moment to really kick it off with her and her moving him to the chair here.
Because she obviously shines a ton in this movie. And such a great moment to like really kick it off with her and her moving him to the chair here. Yeah.
Because she obviously shines a ton in this movie, more than she has in either Guardians movie, more than Infinity War.
So to kick it off with like, hey, Nebula's becoming human.
You should like this person.
Something she always wanted from Daddy Thanos, basically.
Instead of getting a new part every time her sister kicked her ass.
Yeah.
Then I'm like, wait, is this going another direction
when she kind of
that little rub?
I was like, wait, Nebs,
like we're in space.
Tony Stark was like,
listen, I love Pepper,
but we've been in space
for way too long
and I want to see
what parts you have downstairs.
I mean,
that has to set in
sooner or later,
no matter if it's a desert island,
if it's a space.
If you truly think
you're going to die,
I think there's got to be
a part of you like, I want to bone one more time.
She kind of looks like that red-headed
girl from Jumanji.
Really? Her facial features?
The eyes are a bit
creepy, but you can get over that.
The lifeless eyes. And I'm sure
when you're as starved as Tony Stark,
you're probably seeing things. He might be
seeing Pepper every time he looks at Nebula.
I mean, Robbie, how long did you go without coming 19 days 19 days and i was losing my mind
now tony's not an adolescent man like you were at the time you know or you know teenager but
i feel like it might be worse for him he's used to like you know being he's a playboy life yeah
like if he's just me he's just an old man you're just like whatever it's life at this point but
yeah when the first time i saw us it looked like he had like red in his mouth and i'm like if he's just me he's just an old man you're just like whatever it's life at this point but yeah when the first time i saw us it looked like he had like red in his mouth and i'm like is he
like bleeding out of his mouth i was so confused and then it kind of sets in oh yeah now as soon
as i saw the beam i i knew captain marvel has to be i was very thrilled in the moment i think i
might have said this on our recap podcast that it wasn't oh it's my fucking guy steve rogers he just
shaved i will say this i wish he kept the beard the that it wasn't, oh, it's my fucking guy, Steve Rogers. He just shaved, I will say this, I wish
he kept the beard. The beard was such a good look.
Although it's not a Captain America look, and if he's wearing
the helmet later, you can't wear the helmet with the beard.
Yeah, like, beard Captain America
is a different person. You know, beard Captain America
is actually the guy who allowed the snap to happen
and allowed Tony Stark to die. Oh, come on.
I could already tell there's going to be aggression between us
every time these two share the screen.
What I was going to say, though, what I was going to say,
we saw Gwyneth Paltrow post a picture of her in the rescue suit like months before endgame and i was terrified that she was gonna just fly up to space
find tony stark and bring him down and i was like they can't be that dumb right and they weren't
that that dumb they just weren't there were so many concerns like that or that captain marvel
was just gonna be like the super avenger that saves the day and everyone would have hated having
like someone just come out of nowhere and they they hit everything
perfect this though I get the chirp all the time on my Twitter because I liked Captain
Marvel of course there's that entire group of people that hated that movie and they hate
everything about her character they'll be like she was barely in Endgame like well if
she was an Endgame I feel like those people would still be saying like but she was an
Endgame like there was no winning the inside because i get people all the time how about you
know she showed up an end game you could basically miss her part like did you want her to be the
focal character it's a superman effect you just can't have someone that strong just be around
because there's no reason she can't wipe everyone out and one of the most heartbreaking tony stark
moments of all time right there as soon as he landed the first thing he says to steve is he
says i lost the kid yeah yep and then the way that they see each other and then this part is obviously yeah i
never thought i feel something for like a half robot and a raccoon holding hands but but oh my
goodness you feel something and i never even thought that tony doesn't know that pepper's
alive until the moment she and then vice versa she doesn't know if he's they don't know who's
alive they and then obviously they lost a kid. And talk about looking fucking skinny and.
Jesus.
Yikes.
One of his best performances ever in the,
in the scene coming up,
which is a contentious scene between you and me,
but it's definitely one of his best performances ever.
Thor pissed off as fuck.
It was like the only thing they could show of him in the trailer because he
wasn't fat.
Yeah.
That's that's, that was,
fuck me up.
Do you think you could
smell his eye too
from being abroad?
That's why whenever I see him
with the eye,
I'm like,
it was in his butt.
but I bet you could smell it.
There's still,
every so often you catch a wharf.
Which of course he did,
but you know,
there's a lot of echo
around him.
Great,
great quip from Rocket Raccoon
right there.
Nailed him in every theater too.
Like,
that was one of the
100% approval ratings.
Yeah, he thinks he blew it.
Thought you were Build-A-Bear.
Which, of course, he did.
Someone tweeted me today, and they said,
Was there nobody at Avengers HQ when the snap happened?
Because nobody reappeared there.
And I was like, yeah, of course there wasn't anyone at Avengers HQ.
They were all fighting.
They were all at war, dude.
Come on.
You saw it coming a few years back, Rob.
Let's just let it on the open now.
He did in H4.
Let's hash it out early.
He saw it coming.
All the Avengers were dead.
He thought there would be this outside threat from the world, which there was.
He was right about that.
Half the universe dead because of this guy's mistake.
I wouldn't say that.
I wouldn't say they're all dead because it kept them there.
Oh, okay.
Half the universe is dust now.
You're going to hit me on a technicality.
I wouldn't say that.
Remember that?
Whether it impacted our precious freedoms or not, that's what we needed.
Well, that didn't work out today.
I said we'd lose.
You said do that together too it's a good chris evans impression from robert downey jr that was good
hitting him with the prevengers that prevengers's just a genius and it was tough and this
upcoming moment here where he takes this nanotech you know storage base whatever it is off his chest
and he puts it into steve rogers hands and he says if you see him again you put this on and you hide
i thought that was going to be paid off later in the movie i thought steve rogers at the end battle
was going to fucking hit that on the suit and it it was going to be like a Captain America Iron Man suit, which I guess would just be Iron Patriot.
Yeah, that's true.
You can't hand that off.
As he's wielding Thor's hammer.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God.
That would be a bit overload.
We're just going to make Robbie come for the next five minutes.
When you spot the video game and you just max out your character with everything they have.
99s everywhere.
Yeah.
There's Alfred from Brie Larson was also
sending me sending me
spinning the Captain
Marvel pants with the
tank top.
Go kill Thanos was
such a guy just got me
hyped when she killed
him.
We're going to go kill
Thanos.
You go squash his
aunt.
And Don Cheadle
War Machine hits her
with a great chirp
over here.
He says we're all
about that superhero
life lady.
Yeah. chirp over here. He says, we're all about that superhero life, lady.
What a great performance from her, too. Every time she's talking
about Thanos, you know, she could barely look
people in the eyes. She's just staring
through the floor, like, hates him more than
anything.
And Rocket's standing on the table,
just to be eye-level with everyone else.
Did you see the clips that James
Gunn put out of Sean Gunn, his brother,
you know, miming as Rocket?
No. It is so funny.
He plays Rocket in all the movies.
Yeah, yeah.
For motion capture or whatever.
And it's always hysterical
because it's just a group of adults
looking like they're going into battle
and then someone just crawling
on their hands and knees.
Yeah, like, it's hysterical.
This was huge because I was like,
why the fuck would he use the stones?
What did he do with the stones?
Yeah.
Like, what is Thanos doing
He used them to bring everyone back
That's like
Oh he's gonna fuck shit up again
And Thor eating in the corner
Is a nice little
Yep
A little foreshadowing
Yep
Once you get on that carb live Thor
It's nothing but said
Stop doing it
Some protein
Because before you didn't have me
See this is when I'm like, oh, she's just going to just fuck shit up now.
And that's what I'm thinking.
We're having, you know, the Superman Captain Marvel.
It's great that she came in with that attitude, though.
Yeah, she kind of does when she comes hand to hand with him.
You know, the only time he really gets one up on her is when he literally hits her with the entire power or the entire power
of the Power Stone itself.
Yep.
Simple test from Thor.
A simple man.
I wish I could smirk like that.
It's a good smirk.
Oh my God.
I know the little half smile.
Only beautiful people
could do that.
Let's go get this son of a bitch.
Here we go.
Goosebumps down four.
Here we go.
Avengers Endgame has officially started, ladies and gentlemen.
We're going to get this son of a bitch.
Steve Rogers' first time ever going to space upcoming here.
And someone put this side by side.
It's the exact mirrored shot of Iron Man from the first Avengers movie when he brings that rocket out to space.
They just focus in on his eyes.
You'll see the shot coming up.
But Iron Man and Steve Rogers, their first time out to space, they gave them the exact same shot.
Brilliant, brilliant move by whoever that cinematographer was.
Here you go, right here.
Oh, there we go.
That was the shot of Iron Man.
Those eyes right here. Oh, there we go. That was the shot of Iron Man, those eyes right there.
The amount of little Easter eggs that are going to be found now that people have HD copies.
I mean, we've already seen it on Reddit, right?
People are already pointing out a lot of things.
Yeah, everyone's dissecting, and we'll try to point out what we've seen.
We've tried to avoid a lot of that so that we can come in fresh.
Totally.
I actually haven't seen any of the movie, we were talking about it before in HD until just now.
Even Lights Camera Barstool was posting the Avengers Assemble scene on Twitter and Captain America getting the hammer scene.
I was avoiding all of it because I was like, the first time I see this in the most crisp, clear quality I can at home, it's got to be on commentary.
It's got to be.
My mom's basement. Subscribe, rate, five stars, iTunes.
Absolutely.
This line I love yep oh it's so great that's so great that's enough he's a bad mother fuck end of shrek
somebody once told me the world was gonna roll me.
Really does look like that.
They have layers.
Imagine if Thanos just got like a donkey sidekick and picked one up along the way.
Eddie Murphy makes his comeback.
He snapped one into existence.
Ken Feige's like, what?
You don't want Eddie Murphy in the MCU?
We thought, I mean, that's what we've been building to for 22 movies now.
We did 22 panels of research and every single time they said, bring us donkey Eddie Murphy in the MCU? We thought, I mean, that's what we've been building to for 22 movies now. We did 22 panels of research, and every single time they said, bring us Donkey, Eddie Murphy,
we acquired him from, what is that, DreamWorks?
He fucking used the snap to turn himself into an ogre.
And he's just Shrek.
This has all been a big prequel to the Shrek series.
Yeah, killing half the universe was like his plan B.
Plan A was always to just become Shrek.
How about seeing this motherfucker in a t-shirt?
I love the Thanos lounge wear. That's big and tall, too. He's just trying to make himself Shrek. How about seeing this motherfucker in a t-shirt? I love the Thanos lounge wear.
Yeah.
That's big and tall, too.
He's just trying to make himself breakfast here.
He looks up, and you are being toasted.
He's like, Jesus fucking Christ!
It's like when the sun gets in your eyes in the morning,
wakes you up, but times ten.
And the best part is they don't show that
there's no stones in the glove this whole time.
The misdirection of all of it's awesome.
Yeah.
I look with see ya complete like the entire movie theater just yes and the way they roll up here oh so good it's like uh it's like svu when you see like stabler and mariska crime scene yes oh no brutal and it looks way worse than it did even at the end of infinity war
and you're like oh he looks even way worse as you kind of like take a minute
he's got like harvey dent vibes going on right now
i would love to know how they film this scene do you think The universe required correction. After that, the stones served no purpose.
I would love to know how they filmed this scene.
Do you think, because there's so much CGI involved,
do you think Brie Larson had Josh Brolin in a rear naked choke there?
That's a funny...
That'd be weird.
Like, the visual I have of everyone just standing around now
is actually pretty incredible.
Yeah.
You used them two days ago.
We used the stones to destroy... And everyone in the Avengers, except Nebula, Yeah.
And everyone in the Avengers, except Nebula, being in complete and total denial of like, wait, wait.
Like, no, no, no, no.
Like, this plan is going to work.
And she's like, nope, my father's not a liar.
I love the stones.
I love Thanos' like moral compass.
He's basically like Coach from Friday Night Lights. He's like the most honest, good person on the planet other than like, he's a genocidal
maniac.
There's actually a case to be made.
If you're an honest person but a killer, you...
It's like, liars and killers are basically
equal in my mind. I hate liars.
Unbelievable.
He's been holding on to that one for a long, long time.
Imagine if Bill Buckner could go back and just like ground a field ball.
Field a ground ball.
Jesus, I can't talk today.
Can you imagine if he didn't think of that line until on the spaceship home?
It's like, I should have said I went for that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, it's great.
He definitely had that one in the back pocket.
And now he's like, you know what?
I nailed the fuck out of that one.
I'm going to go eat some ice cream.
Nebula's reaction to that is interesting, too.
She hated the guy, but it's still her dad, right?
Yeah.
She's closing his eyes and his head. Now that the the real guest moment of maybe the entire movie definitely
definitely i mean we are we are now 19 minutes about 20 minutes we just hit the 20 minute mark
right here so the fact that they kill thanos 20 minutes into the movie the big bad guy that for
over a year everyone was i guess a year to the day everyone was like this guy has to die for what he did to peter parker he did he said i don't feel so good mr
stark and that is enough we need his head on a stake and it's over 20 minutes into the movie
boom there you go he's killed and we can't get anyone back we're fucked there's your uh precious
city field oh it looks about the same that's how my heart feels right now. And the five
year gap of like, yup, we've been
living like this for five years is fucking
stunning every single time.
That's another Gats moment is the five years later
like, what? What? What?
And then you just see like, nothing's
better. You're like, Thanos is dead, but it's
in ruins. Yeah. There's Joe Russo,
one of the directors. I think it's Joe. Might be
Anthony, but I believe that's the directors i think it's joe might be anthony but i believe that's joe um a nice little cameo for him he definitely deserves it i love when
directors give themselves cameos we were actually just talking about on radio yesterday quentin
tarantino all his roles in his movies fantastic i always wanted to try jimmy's coffee that's my
number one thing i want to try is jimmy's coffee versus the coffee that uh what's the guy's name
in breaking bad who's like the chemist with with wall i want to try is Jimmy's Coffee versus the coffee that – what's the guy's name in Breaking Bad who's like the chemist with Walt?
I want to try his coffee versus Jimmy's.
Oh, I know who you're talking about, that Jesse has to shoot spoilers.
Yeah.
I forget his name, but yeah.
He was the one that gave Walter White the book, right?
Yep.
Gabe?
Is it Gabe?
Gabe, maybe.
Yeah, sounds right.
W-W.
Just definitely a nerd name.
Sorry, any Gabes out maybe. Yeah, sounds right. W-W. Just definitely a nerd name. Sorry, any Gabes out there.
Sorry, Gabes.
But hey, if you're listening to this podcast, your name's Gabe, you're probably okay with being a nerd.
That is true.
You've steered into the Gabe.
Definitely.
And right now, if you're not cool with being a nerd, what's wrong with you?
Yeah, at this point.
We're watching the nerdiest movie maybe ever made, and it's also the highest grossing movie ever made right now.
How does that feel, James Cameron?
I know you're listening, you bitch.
How does that feel, bitch boy?
The fuck does that feel?
And how about Captain America, our fucking, we stan a king right here.
We stan an accepting king.
Cool with LGBT community.
And he was born in what, the 20s?
Pretty impressive stuff there.
Pretty impressive stuff there. Yep. Pretty impressive stuff.
That is actually, he's very, now that you mention it, he is very accepting.
I'm actually, I'm proud of my cat.
Steve Rogers, the fucking man.
America's ass, America's heart, he can say it too.
Totally.
And now a huge shout out, huge.
A little round of applause.
Clem, can we get a round of applause for the rat?
Let's do it. Let's stand. Huge. A little round of applause. Clem, can we get a round of applause for the rat? Let's do it.
Let's stand.
Yep.
Standing ovation.
Fifth in my MVP ballot right here.
Absolutely.
We're not rat guys.
No.
We had a rat in the office.
We actually had a rat in the office today.
It attacked a man in our building, in our lobby.
It was terrifying.
It looked the size of my dog.
But this rat, this rat we thank.
This rat we stan.
This rat is responsible for pretty much the entirety of this movie.
Without this rat bringing Scott Lang out of the quantum realm, we have no time heist and we have no resolution to this snap.
This is like two million of the endings Doctor Strange saw was just the rat not going to that van at that time.
And it had to be so frustrating when he's like 700,000 in.
And he knows that if this rat hits the button, this is going to make van at that time. It would be so frustrating, you know, when he's like 700,000 in, and he knows that if this rat hits the button,
this is going to make major waves.
He's just like, can I fucking see the rat hit this button?
Come on.
Scott Lang, Paul Rudd, clearly
confused as fuck, because he
went in on a rooftop and is now in a
storage facility. Has no idea that
any time has passed, because he was in the quantum realm.
Great little cameo right here. Yes, this is like a community shout out i believe oh is it i
think they directed a bunch of episodes of that and he was in that so i think they gave him a
little shout out as a nod to their old tv is he a security guarding community i've never seen
community i think he is but i'm not sure i've never seen it either i'm just getting into parks
and rec now they did give oh parks and rec is one of my favorites ever great show they did give a shout out to arrested development in civil war the blue
um you know what is it the escalator like yeah yeah the truck yeah that is in the airport scene
in the back oh i gotta see that yeah this kid's creepy as fuck i just want to say this yes he
says what the hell happened the kid just drives, hey, if you lost your whole family and Scott Lang just made you sad about it, I'm sorry for crucifying you here.
But you could just be like, bro, what do you mean what happened?
I know life sucks five years from now in this future, but it's also been five years.
Come on.
And this, I said, if I was on the production team, I would make sure my name was on one of those.
Oh, yeah, 100%.
Shout out to Romeo Labine.
Ina Lancer.
Definitely someone on the CGI team or the props department.
And I was looking for names, too.
I thought we would get, like, secret shout-out names and shit.
Yeah, that's right.
In, like, the Stan Lee territory, you get, like, an L's or something.
Yeah.
And another moment where I thought his daughter was going to be gone.
And I thought that was going to be the realization.
I was going to be like, Jesus Christ, they're really putting Paul Rudd up to some acting gig here.
But no, he sees himself. And you want to talk chills?
You want to talk tears?
This is the MCU's version of that scene from Interstellar
when Matthew McConaughey has to watch his daughter grow up right in front of his eyes and he's just hysterically crying.
The fact that the whole way this was framed where she opens the screen door first, she looks at him, can't believe it's him.
Two phenomenal acting performances from both Paul Rudd and this girl that plays his daughter.
Her seeing her father for the first time in five years.
Thinking he's dead, right?
Thinking he's dead right because i don't think he's dead and also like she's aged so much those years are so important to a young
person like that she's a completely different person now i sometimes look at sienna i'll get
a glimpse of what i think she'll look like in five years and it fucks your brain up big time
deja vu like you see it for like a second yeah that's crazy and it trips me out i couldn't
imagine actually like it happening where it's like five years later just like that and and him not having aged five years you know him
five hours later he sees his daughter five years older fucked up the blip as they say
spoiler alert for uh yeah far from home you've seen it yet. Natasha cutting her sandwich the way Nick Fury does not like it, diagonally.
And here's the shout-out that we've pointed out a bunch to maybe Atlantis coming up in just a second here.
See, why would you be so sassy about it
If you weren't going to go back to that
I think they're going to do what I said they're going to do
I think Killmonger falls into that
Waterfall he drifts down
And he falls into Atlantis where they revive him
And Killmonger is maybe running Atlantis
Hell yeah
With Namor or whatever
It's going to be tough too because I am big Killmonger guy.
I didn't like
Black Panther.
I know you said
there were moments
where you liked Killmonger
better than Black Panther
and I don't really blame you.
Because he stinks as a character.
Yeah.
Haircuts are unreal.
Again, like a Wire guy
and a Friday Night Lights guy too.
Natasha's hair, by the way,
her little red ombre.
If any ladies are out there listening and they want to catch Bob Fox's heart, you dye your hair like that, I think I'll marry you on the spot.
I was a huge fan of Scarlett Johansson with this haircut.
Do you think she stopped doing it halfway through?
It almost looks like it was a rush job and then she's like, I've got to save the world.
I think what it's meant to look like is that, yeah, she just let her roots grow in.
She hasn't gotten a haircut since Infinity War or something.
It can't – like obviously she's not going to have stubble like if Tony had a rough day or something, right?
You know what's the key to that?
Just have empty Chinese cartons everywhere.
That always means, oh, this guy is down on his luck.
Totally.
Some pizza boxes.
Chinese cartons, maybe some Solo cups.
Like if you want to go the alcoholic route, you do the beer cans, like the crumpled up.
I think they probably have those. We'll look for them at Thor's house. Thor do the beer cans, the crumpled up.
I think they probably have those.
We'll look for them at Thor's house.
Yeah, we'll look for those.
I also saw the place where they filmed all the new Asgard stuff.
They put up a sign and whatever the actual town name is. Oh, really?
And also new Asgard.
That's awesome.
Which is amazing.
And it's such a small village.
I'm sure if you are that village, you're getting so much tourism now that why not put up a sign?
A lot of guys like us are going there.
Definitely.
They look just like us.
Definitely.
People are trying to ride in on the back of a pickup truck.
Yes!
Yeah, that is a smart – if you have a pickup truck rental business, so you want to go into town like that, here.
Totally.
$300 a day.
Figure out how to jack up the front of the car so it's tilted a little bit.
That would be amazing.
So I get to be Hulk and you're Rocket. I a little bit oh that would be amazing so i get to be i get to be hulk and your rocket i think oh that would be a good halloween costume um i think
this is the scene where when captain america starts walking towards natasha you'll catch
catch a glimpse of her ballet shoes on the chair which she was obviously a spy and you know she
did ballet in russia or whatever when she was. I assume they'll go into that more in her solo movie next year.
There it is.
In the chair, the near chair.
Yep.
The little details like that are why the MCU is the best because they will reference that.
They reference everything.
The littlest details they will bring back up.
The best part is Kevin Feige gets credit for all that in my head even though if he had nothing to do with it.
It's really the prop department or something.
Look at Captain America giving that hammer a budge in Age of Ultron. Yeah. Feige gets like credit for all that in my head even though I know it's really the prop department or something like look at look at
Captain America given that given that hammer
a budge in Age of Ultron yeah what it
paid off to in this like that was such
a tiny thing it was a cool moment because
you know in the theater you all kind of laugh and
everyone turns their head like a dog like the fuck
did he just make that budge and then
in Endgame it becomes the greatest moment in cinema history
you know
this was a nice moment between these two and definitely Endgame, it becomes the greatest moment in cinema history. Yeah.
This was a nice moment between these two and definitely, you know, maybe not foreshadowing for Natasha's death, but it's giving preemptive closure.
Yep.
Where she's like, trust me, this is all I care about.
You know, the Avengers.
I have no family.
I have no friends.
You are my family.
You are my friends.
All of that because it makes it a little better when she's making the sacrifice instead of Clint because Clint is going back home to a family
outside of the Avengers. And the more I rewatch it, the more you realize just how devastated
she was by all of it. Totally. It really hammers home
that it made sense for her to be the one. Yeah. And the fact that I'm sure before this movie, before she was ever going to die, before she ever got the script, she probably was told, you're going to be the next.
You're going to be the first movie in phase four.
So I'm sure she was fine with it.
That makes it a little better.
And the plot officially kicks into motion with Scott Lang here.
This was in the trailer too, I remember,
and a lot of people were trying to figure out
if it was a different reality,
if the quantum realm was in that.
I remember people saying,
is it old footage, is it new footage, or whatever.
And trying to figure that out in my limited brain,
I was like, I don't know what's going on,
I'm going to just watch it in the movie theater.
I was stoked and my sister was stoked because as I've
said, Ant-Man is just her favorite superhero.
So when he shows up in the trailer,
she was like, he's the key to the whole thing!
Like, finally!
That was one of my concerns too.
You know that was one of my concerns, but the way they made
him the key, it's kind of like Captain Marvel. It wasn't too
much, but it was just enough. He was just an intro
to the Quantum Realm more so than anything.
Tony Stark was still the one to figure out time travel.
He just presented them with the idea and they built on it.
So I do enjoy that.
And the way he's – oh, man.
That's a tough one.
That's a tough one.
Talking about hope.
Yeah.
She was my – she was supposed to pull me out, he says.
It was five hours.
See, the rules of the quantum realm aren't like they are up here. Everything is unpredictable. Is that anybody's sandwich? Great line. She's supposed to pull me out, he says.
Great line.
Great line.
Vintage Paul Rudd right there. It's like when Rocket isn't on the screen, you know Paul Rudd can give you that comedic little always breakup of the drama.
And speaking of Rocket, there's an awesome, awesome reference to Rocket Raccoon right here.
He's so afraid to say it.
Yep.
There it is.
True.
She had to be thrown for such a loop.
Seeing, you know, a couple Avengers battles, seeing the main Avengers battle had to be scary for her.
But being on the field in Wakanda, Black Widow, a human being, you know, much like Steve Rogers.
But I guess Steve Rogers even in the 40s had seen Red Skull and shit.
For her to see that shit and then like, oh, yeah, one of our new teammates is a raccoon and the team is now like tiny
but you'll get emails from him.
What a world. And this,
oh my god, seeing this in the theater for the
first time, how they kept this under wraps, I have
no idea. The fact that he would be a father.
This is the
moment I said, oh my boy's in trouble.
It's like now he has something to lose and I
was like, fuck. Yeah fuck yeah i was at this very moment i was reworking all of my fan theories in my head to be
like all right how can we make sure that tony stark doesn't die because he needs to live happily
ever after with his adorable ass daughter the cutest person i've ever seen in my life like we
said she was the perfect level of cute where it wasn't obnoxiously cute, but she's still cute as a goddamn button.
Yeah.
She's the perfect cute kid.
And the fact that she's wearing the rescue helmet with the Tony Stark glove, like she looks up to Iron Man.
Kids are getting into shit, you know?
That's what they do.
Oh, my God, yeah.
And she's exactly, you know, if you do the math, five years or whatever after the snap happens or whatever.
Yeah.
She's a snap baby.
Do you think snap babies were a big thing?
Like baby boomers?
Oh my God.
It's a great.
Oh,
there was everyone.
It's just like,
you lose a bunch of loved ones and you're like,
all right,
let's like build a family now.
Or like,
yeah,
like the one that got away.
Well,
her husband got away.
Oh,
now she's like,
Hey,
making for some very awkward circumstances when the husband comes back.
Oh,
that,
that's Thanos' legacy.
Oh, man, that's fucked up.
Double families, triple families.
Bartolo, Cologne is like a thousand families.
There's so many, when you really think about it, so many awkward snap scenarios.
Imagine a dude snapping away or a chick snapping away in the middle of sex.
How awkward does that have to be?
Like, 9-1-1, I think I fucked the shit out of her.
I think I killed her.
I don't know what happened.
Can you imagine?
Oh, my God.
Fucked her in the dust.
Oh, my God.
And then people that are pregnant are then pregnant again?
I don't even want to think about that.
I don't even want to think about that.
That's next level weird shit.
Do you think the Russo brothers didn't want to do a time?
I feel like you probably fight The time machine
Idea of it
Cause it's like
It's been done so many times
But when push comes to shove
They did it so well
And so cool
They did it so
That's the thing that confuses me
Where it's like
They did do it so well
I bet they did want to do it
Just because of the
The Doctor Strange line
You know
I've looked through all the scenarios
And you gotta do one
I bet they wanted to do it
I bet they also wanted to do it
To do it the way they did it here Where they did it basically to pay homage to the entire to the
whole yeah the whole mcu and i i kind of love how tony wanted to stop it like he said beforehand
but now he's at the point where he has someone to lose and he doesn't want to be a part of this anymore yeah he's completely hey we lost it's over
you know there is no more
what about the rematch it's over
it's just a bunch of losers here from what I see except for Tony
the one winner of the bunch
yeah that was also his point where it's like he didn't lose Pepper
he got very lucky the first time by not losing Pepper
and now he has a daughter on top of that
so it's like everyone else here doesn't have anyone else.
And that line, oh, mom sent me to come save you.
Until proven otherwise, that's Robert Downey Jr.'s daughter.
I know she has a different name and all that stuff.
But the way she just climbs him like a dad, that is the perfect kid.
Yeah.
I want him tucking her in every single night.
Love you, 3,000.
I remember the first scary movie I ever saw was I Am Legend.
I don't even know if you would consider that at this point, but I was pretty young when I came out, I guess.
I remember there's that scene with the dog.
Yeah.
Oh, God.
And I was a wreck, and I was like, I want to see the dog on the red carpet.
I want to see it.
So I know the dog is okay.
And my mom, like, Googled pictures of, like, probably fucking, like, German shepherd.
She was like, look, it's fine.
As you're crying your eyes out.
Look at the size of that egg bowl.
I always look at the pancakes.
I'm like, those pancakes are so big.
Uncle Buck.
You ever see Uncle Buck?
No.
That's an old 80s movie. I've never even heard of with a um shovel it's john candy but this another crowd pleaser 100
approval rating the first time you see him so fucking good i i did see a lot of people after
the fact were upset that they said they finally like gave hulk a conclusion to his story arc
off screen.
They were like, the fact that he was able to become, aka Professor Hulk,
I guess, Smart Hulk, what they're calling him in this movie.
They were like, that's kind of
his whole story arc, is him
trying to find the balance between that and it happened off screen.
I have no issues with it. Hulk has,
he had that one solo movie with
Ed Norton, and since then he's been
a side character. He's been a main Avenger,
but he's been a feature in other people's movies. So I'm okay with them not giving him
that on screen. I love the almost jarring thing of he's wearing a cardigan and a nice
hipster shirt and he's wearing glasses.
Embraces the pictures with the kids.
And this is my favorite comedic scene in the movie, I think.
It's the perfect...
It's Bryce Harper and Kevin Hayes, you know?
Yeah, exactly.
And I love...
Something about when the superheroes say superhero names
to regular people, I always dig that.
Yeah.
They actually do that really well.
I just started The Boys on Amazon.
Okay.
And it's fascinating how they present these superheroes because it's very much in a corporate modern world.
So it's like Disney is like presenting their superheroes.
Yeah.
And it's almost a combination of like Disney and the NFL because like the head of the Kathleen Kennedy of these superheroes will like call cities
and be like,
I see your crime rates up.
You know,
we could give you a superhero
in Baltimore
for 300 million though.
Like we can move them
from Atlanta to Baltimore
or something.
It's really good.
You would like it.
I'm going to check it out then.
Yeah, the boys on Amazon.
They also advertised
with barstools.
Oh, that's,
I remember seeing that.
I was like,
I feel like I've seen
that logo somewhere.
We love them for that.
We love them.
Someone hit me up about this.
They were like,
why is Tony Stark doing his dishes?
Get a dishwasher, bro. Build one.
There are times where I have a
dishwasher and my wife and I do the dishes because we
did it ourselves, but we lived in a one-bedroom
in a story for five years where Tony Stark
has probably not done a dish in his entire life.
He's about to go compute time travel.
Talk about tugging on the heart
strings. This had to be another
scenario that took like
500 000 for dr strange like that that fucking water gun had to get away from him one time for
this to even be possible you're right his picture on peter park that picture is so nice and so
wholesome i might frame that and put it on my desk you got it i'm gonna put it somewhere like
your mom's house and just hide it somewhere i actually did one of those i used to love doing that to my mom i would fuck with her i would print out like pictures of nicholas cage and put it in your mom's house and just hide it somewhere. Just a picture of Tony. I actually did one of those. I used to love doing that to my mom.
I would fuck with her.
I would print out pictures of Nicolas Cage and put them in with the family photos.
The all-time best was when I replaced every single character in the nativity with a Star Wars figure.
And it took her a full day to notice.
Like baby Jesus was baby Yoda.
It was hysterical.
It was hysterical.
They were tauntauns instead of horses.
And there it is Took them what two days
My fucking guy is so smart
Shit
Ah so good
Goddamn kid is there to
That's your mom's word
Amazing
Nothing better than when your wife screws up
Around the kids you can blame everything on her
And that facial reaction Nothing better than when your wife screws up around the kids and you can blame everything on her.
And that facial reaction from that girl.
What a perfect scene.
Robert Downey Jr., the god.
And then she straight up extorts him.
Yeah, for the popsicles.
Extorting your parents was just the best.
For simple shit like that.
Just like you see someone curse Something like that
And you're like I was thinking about eating cookies were you
Sounds good don't it
Early blackmail as a child
The sooner you learn to bribe your kids
The better
My mom actually used to bribe me
I think my sister was born
It was my brother he was six years younger
If I took a nap she'd give me a Ninja Turtle figure.
Oh, shit.
Wait, every nap?
Not every single time, but it was like, I need you to nap right now, please.
She had bought like 20 of them or something like that.
And I had the sweet Ninja Turtle collection.
Hell yeah. Sienna said, I think, I love you a thousand, like, the day before I saw this movie in the theater.
And I fucking froze up.
Yeah.
And I love, he really tries to hold a conversation with her here.
He really tries to hear about how her day was.
He said six to nine range, too, which always throws me off. Yeah me off yeah yeah come on that's that's a sex joke it's really a
nice moment and he's like oh yeah by the way yeah compost he's like figure it out got it sorry i
don't want to hear about your day i'm sorry
do you think wong got invited to the wedding?
Oh, yeah.
And did he show up?
Do you think they got married?
I feel like...
They probably did, right?
Yeah, like, there's no wedding pictures.
You gotta have the kids on the benefits and stuff like that, and everyone's on the same...
True, I guess, yeah, but for insurance purposes.
Yeah, like, he'd be poor right now. They probably did, right?
Yeah. Does she have a ring?
She doesn't look like it. Or it's the left
hand, isn't it? Yeah, it's the left hand. I don't even
know that shit. The rock Tony Stark would give
you, though, would like weigh your... Well, she probably wouldn't
accept anything more than something like
understated but beautiful. It would probably be some kind of nanotech thing where it doesn't
look like you're wearing a ring and you like press your finger
and it just like, you know, suits up or
something. It's like a cave in Africa africa like it's just the biggest ring ever
it'd be kind of sick if you remember his watch suit that he pulls out in civil war he like pulls
a watch it would have been kind of sick if he had like a ring suit and that's right in this one he
fucking yeah rescue suit yeah or something like that that would be cool i bet i bet they did get
married i bet w Wong was invited.
I bet it was sad shit though because like – It was probably sad.
I'm sure he was like, I wish Peter Parker was here to see this instead of fucking Wong.
No offense, Wong.
No offense, Wong.
Keep Wong alive.
Hey, he invited him to the wedding.
You invited him to the wedding, Wong, so he owed him.
Keep Wong alive in the next Doctor Strange movie.
Yes.
Keep Wong alive.
Also, I saw some theories towards that.
A lot of people believe that it won't,
you know, they're advertising it as like
Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch.
A lot of people think they're leaving one out of that equation.
And it will be Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, and Loki
all teaming up.
Because apparently there's comics
where they go through the multiverse
and it's those three.
Really?
That's an interesting squad.
And Loki goes right afterwards. So we know there is a version of Loki around. We know they're doing the multiverse. and it's those three. Really? That's an interesting squad. Yeah.
It goes right afterwards so we know there is
a version of Loki around.
We know they're doing
the multiverse.
So it would be
pretty interesting
if you're trying to
keep that away from us
Kevin Feige.
You ain't being slick.
We're on to you.
While he's keeping away
a thousand amazing things
that we would lose
our minds over.
Marvel's what a
dorky suit that was by the way. Such a dorky suit that was, by the way.
Such a dorky suit. That the other Avengers built.
Looks horrible.
Marvel's the one universe that actually
does better than even the Reddit boards can do.
Like, we're redifying it right now, and they'll
somehow do better than whatever we're asking.
Yes.
I love
the Hulk scrambling in this entire scene.
I just love that we have two different geniuses in the Avengers that are capable of some sort of time travel and some sort of capacity.
Totally.
And the Hulk is sort of figuring it out, and Tony Stark's just like, he knows exactly what Bruce Banner did wrong as soon as he shows up.
He'll grow.
That's a great line.
He said that is Scott.
As a baby. He said he'll grow.
Pit the power.
What a fucking line to just throw
at someone on the fly.
I can't know if it was baby me or old me.
Or just baby me.
I can't imagine it.
What?
I see this as an absolute win.
I think I would, too.
I think I would, too.
I was like, wait.
We fucking made him a baby.
We're good.
We just got to tweak some things.
I didn't even think about Iron Man Coming in and saving the day
I was like we're good
Just let Bruce cook in the kitchen
It'll be fine
Absolutely
I can't imagine anyone else
As Ant-Man pulling off
Like the kind of
Oh I know
Right
It's gotten to that point
And I'm not even an Ant-Man fan
And it's like
Like Mark Ruffalo
And Paul Rudd
Like when you look at
Those two actors as people
A lot of people
Would probably say
Paul Rudd is like cooler
But for some reason When Paul Rudd is with Like the rest of the adventures he comes off as the human
one yeah he portrays it so well that like he comes off everyone else comes off otherworldly compared
to him it's so smart it's it's so so so smart he is like our channel into this world that's a good
way to put it really is it's like we're looking at it through the same eyes that he is
where he's like,
hey, Captain America.
Yeah, man.
That's Hulk.
I know you're Hulk fans.
Nice audio advertisement there.
Probably their second in the movie,
I think.
That's like my like
advanced like 2019 brain
that poisoned by Darren Revell
and people like that.
I'm like,
how much did Adi pay
for this fucking screen time?
That's the first thing
I thought of
when I saw that car.
Oh my God,
that's a good question.
I wouldn't even know
where to start.
How many millions of dollars?
Yeah,
think about it,
because,
movie made what,
2.7 billion?
Something like that.
So they probably paid
hundreds of millions of dollars.
I bet they paid
over a hundred million dollars.
And it's worth it
right probably i mean i wouldn't drive the car that tony star drives like totally and he showed
up to the premiere with it right no those aren't right he did now edith glasses are blue now are
those the glasses he wears in the pet because i have a point of contention with i don't know how
he gets those old 70s glasses when he didn't know he'd have to be going to the 70s at some point.
When they go back to Jersey?
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
I didn't even think about that. That was something I thought of the first viewing.
Maybe he just took them off someone.
But I'm like, are these the same glasses?
I don't think they are.
I love that he's got his daughter's clothes on.
Yeah, that's such a dad move.
Shit piles up, man.
I'll tell you.
What a huge moment that I didn't even think about
in this movie.
Cap getting his shield back. His shield back. Yeah. I forgot he didn't even have a shield in Civil War yeah then it makes
sense why he doesn't have a shield in Infinity War yeah which provides us the amazing Black
Panther T'Challa line and get this man a shield amazing now the Spider-Man ended up getting the
shield once and for all because it bounces around who's the one who actually ends up snagging it?
Where?
In Civil War?
Yeah.
I think it might be Spider-Man, and then I guess we're led to believe it.
Oh, no, I think...
Is it Tony Stark?
I think Tony gets it, because it's the two-on-one fight.
Correct.
Tony gets it, and it's the two-on-one.
Or does the government, like, take it away from Cap?
Somehow, they're on the run.
No.
I saw it somewhere real estate.
I don't know.
I think Tony had it, but i could be wrong this is one of those moments definitely
that someone at home is infuriated with us come on so and so has it that was an entire comic
series based on that arc it was covered in the spin-off series oh poor scott lang i that that
guardian's humor where it's like there's an asshole fucking just sitting in the lunchbox.
Hits him with the what's up regular size man.
Yeah.
And then Hulk, you know, emasculates him a little more by being just a giant giving him tacos.
Oh, great song.
Like the perfect, like everything.
Great song.
They fucking nailed the soundtrack, too.
This is the perfect, like, going down to Thor's place.
Great duo, too. Those two the perfect, like, going down to Thor's place. Great duo, too.
Those two in the back of that pickup truck.
$300 a day.
You can get that pickup.
Take a picture right there at New Asgard.
Yeah.
I don't know if that's the sign they have up.
That wasn't the one that I saw.
Oh, yeah, me either.
I think I know this sign.
It's not that one.
No, it's in town.
It's like twinning with New Asgard.
Is it
Norway? I think it is, yeah.
It looks like a great town to go
record an album. Go record a
Beatles album. You know what I mean? Go secluded
and kind of the
rubber soul mentality.
Yeah, Thor's... Not Thor.
Hulk is kind of like an honorary Asgardian, I'm sure,
after that battle on Asgard at Ragnarok.
Valkyrie's a motherfucker.
She really is.
She is.
She's a tough cookie.
Tessa Thompson.
What another actress on top of the world right
now between this creed all her other shit she's one of those people that i feel like i'll watch
anything tessa thompson's in she's like one of those like uh mark of i don't know quality yeah
that's what i was gonna say i love how like at some point someone at marvel was like listen
we've had some like l's along the way. We're a struggling studio.
Let's just hire awesome actors in all of our roles
and actually nail casting.
Whoever the casting agent for all these movies,
Bradley Cooper is the perfect
Rocket Raccoon and you wouldn't even know Bradley Cooper
was there unless you read the credits. It's crazy.
Even when you just
first said Bradley Cooper, I was like, who could he play?
Who could he play in the MCU?
This is a stunning moment for the first time this is a big win for the units right here we got Thor on our side it's like in Chappelle
show it's the unit draft we get the big guys got Thor it's a huge win and I love how he doesn't
even acknowledge his appearance he's not embarrassed by his house.
My fucking guys.
Yep.
Oh, hey.
Hey, Hulk.
I was so happy.
You're the first friend I thought when I saw he was there.
Hell yeah.
Noob Master 69.
Possibly Loki, eh eh from another multiverse
tell you what rocket and hulk shooting some judgmental looks yeah it just looks like a
friend being a great friend yeah i no Noobmaster talking shit to Korg?
Thor's not going to let it fly.
If the God of Thunder could kill the guy,
I think that would be an acceptable thing.
He only does just say some mean words.
Yeah.
By the way, the Thanos Fortnite thing they had during Infinity War
was one of the greatest.
That got me so...
I was so hooked to Fortnite.
So awesome.
I never became Thanos because I stink at this game.
Those are the only times I ever play
Fortnite, really. When they released
Infinity War and then when they released this.
Actually, John Wick 3. They did a John Wick thing.
That's sick.
They put his house in the map
and you could use the pickaxe
to destroy his basement and you get
all his guns that were buried underneath.
It's awesome it's
awesome not a huge gamer if anyone's out there but uh i do have fun from time to time with it
i am going to start doing some gaming content from my mom's basement we talked about uh yeah
we've been talking about uploading videos to like a youtube channel and kind of getting a bunch of
content under my belt before i even launch a youtube channel so i launch with a good library
and i think i want to play through all the old Star Wars games.
Starting with Lego Star Wars, possibly having Morty Mush join every now and then to help me with the puzzles.
What the fuck is this guy?
Z3PO?
What does that mean?
The puzzles from Lego Star Wars.
I just remember being tricky from time to time, and I would love Mush's brain to try to pick them apart.
Oh, and he says, don't you say that name yeah we don't
say that name in here yeah cork stands up i'm sorry we don't we don't really say that name in
this house what a dickhead thing to say as a friend come on on. That was like... He just fucking buried Noob Master for you.
You can't say you did Thor.
You fucking god.
Seemed like just a rock brain move.
Yeah, just a rock brain.
As a bit of a rock brain move.
Because I don't think he did it maliciously.
I think he was just dumb in that moment.
Yeah.
He's a guy that I would love to see
in a bunch of these Disney Plus features.
Yes.
I'm sure he'll be a main feature
in Thor Love and Thunder. But I would love to see in a bunch of these Disney Plus features. I'm sure he'll be a main feature in Thor, Love, and Thunder.
But I would love to see him in like Loki or even What If.
Show me a few.
What if Korg was the God of Thunder?
What if Korg was the one to beat Hulk in that trial by combat or whatever, you know?
When Hulk says he saved him, he's talking about Ragnarok, right?
Yeah. Yeah.
We're good here,
mate.
So frigging great.
Hemsworth,
there's nothing that
Green Bull can't do.
I fall back in love with him
every time I see this movie.
I know,
and you know what's crazy?
I just said that Tessa Thompson is now like the mark of quality.
I heard their Men in Black movie was shit.
Oh, yeah.
I forgot about that.
Which you would have to assume was at the fault of everybody but those two.
Yes, exactly.
And Kumail was in that too.
Kumail was that little alien from the trailer.
Well, I thought it was hysterical.
That's like if there was like an anti-trailer or like the reviews. It's like so bad, not even Tessa Thompson. I know, yeah. Because I'm it was hysterical. That's like if there was an anti-trailer or the reviews.
It's like, so bad, not even.
I know, yeah.
This is fucking awesome.
Oh, we got our one shot here.
I actually don't like this right here.
I think they changed the subtitles, right?
I feel like the subtitles were a different font in the movie theater.
No, no, no.
I think the actual subtitles are coming up. Oh, okay. I think they're stylized for the show font in the movie theater. Oh, no, no, no. I think the actual subtitles are coming up.
Oh, okay.
I think they're, like, stylized for the show down in the street here.
Gotcha.
Okay, because I saw that little black box down there, and I was like, one of my favorite
things was the typography in it.
It's a very nerdy thing to say.
It definitely is.
But I was like...
Maybe not.
No, I don't...
Boo!
All right.
The typography has changed, folks, and the digital copy, at least the iTunes copy that we're watching, it does have some bizarre closed captioning for this.
Because this felt like a Tarantino movie just broke out, and it was because of the typography is what did it for me.
You know what I think it was?
It was yellow.
I think it was yellow in the theater.
And it was like a font, though.
It wasn't like this small thing.
I think it was yellow in the theater. And it was like a font, though. It wasn't like this small thing. I think it was something bigger.
And at this point, I kind of know there's this guy, Ronan, that this might be, but I wasn't sure what the fuck was going on.
I didn't know if he had any kind of... I was pretty sure what was going on here, at least in my mind.
And I remember in the trailer, he wipes the blood off his sword but there's no they edited out all the blood
for the trailer
yeah
so I was like
oh this guy's definitely
gonna die a gruesome death here
slits his throat
I mean that's crazy
they didn't go full
Game of Thrones on it
where you see the blood
like gush on
out underneath it
I mean look at his hand
yeah he's
pretty fucking violent
for you know
what should be a kids's movie, I guess.
He gets a sword through the skull.
It's a clean sword.
It's a relatively clean sword, though.
Oh, no, we see it there.
Okay, I can see it now.
Barely even got anything.
That was just a waste.
So here's one of the...
This is one of the nerdiest main problems I have with Endgame right here.
Look at his hair when he takes this off.
His hair, okay?
Okay. Takes the mask off. His hair, okay? Okay.
Takes the mask off.
Pretty fucking cool.
Kind of his mohawk-type thing going on.
And then the first time it cuts to him,
it's just wet in his face.
And the continuity on it drives me bananas.
Oh, no.
You just broke Endgame for a bunch of people, Bob.
It drives me bananas, bro.
It drives me absolutely bananas.
Maybe he, like, did a move when you didn't see him.
That's what I've, in my brain canon, he has.
Because I have such OCD about it, I have to excuse it in my brain.
I'm like, when they cut to Natasha, he ran his glove through his hair.
That's what happened.
But if that's the biggest fault I have with this movie, I'm sure.
Exactly.
We're talking about a great movie right here.
And she's trying to sort of do the negotiation thing with him. Like, hey, we really need you back.
We got this time travel shit, whatever.
It's got to be jarring for her to be like, I just watched you brutally, brutally murder someone.
You slit his throat and then you stabbed your sword through the top of his skull.
What has gotten into you?
It's so vicious.
Like, she saw that all go down there, too.
She's holding his hand right here just to make sure he doesn't kill her.
You remember, I'm like an assassin, right?
He's like, yo, Tony just invented time travel.
Get your ass there.
Like, we need you.
Look at that.
What is that, a Natterday?
Natterday for the boys?
Great Lebowski line right there.
Yeah, I love that
They're not pulling any punches about what he looks like
And at the point of the thing
He kind of looks like Big Lebowski
And then he's actually Lebowski
And one of my favorite things about this
That I mentioned in our
First recap podcast
Something that I wrote down in
maybe my third or fourth viewing of this movie.
We're about to enter the exact
halfway, or not exact halfway,
the exact third point of the movie.
One hour mark. Yes.
We hit the one hour mark for the time travel
thing, and then we hit the one hour mark, again,
the two hour mark for the snap.
So they really break it up into like three main
movies. It's like almost a three-episode series that this movie is.
So awesome.
Showing off the new tats.
Yep.
No big deal.
Fresh ink.
No biggie.
He got a lot of shit for those tats.
I think they look cool.
What did people like about them?
The tats and the haircut.
They were like, oh, God, he's going through a midlife crisis.
Yeah, his whole family disappeared. That's a midlife crisis. Yeah, his whole family disappeared.
That's a midlife crisis.
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
A little killing baby Hitler joke there from War Machine.
Secondly, time doesn't work that way.
Changing the past doesn't change the future.
And here's the explanation for Endgame's rules.
Thanos doesn't have the stones.
Problem solved.
Bingo.
That's not how it works.
Oh, that's what I heard.
Wait, but who told you that?
Star Trek, Terminator, Time Cop, Time After Time, Quantum Leap, Wrinkle in Time, Somewhere in Time. I love that they threw my great line.
I mean, Back to the Future, you know.
Did you see it yet?
A movie that I've seen.
Oh, yeah.
Big time.
Big time.
Two? Yeah. Okay, thank God. We've officially seen both Back to the Future movies you know. Did you see it yet? A movie that I've seen. Oh, yeah. Big time. Big time. Two?
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank God.
We've officially seen both Back to the Future movies, if you're listening to this.
And that podcast is incoming.
I talked to Kevin this week.
So we're doing that one.
And we're also doing a sequel to the KFC and Brendan episode.
Nice.
We got more nerd shit from the 90s that they've thought of that they want to talk about.
So we'll be doing that.
We are officially, by the way, over the hour mark, if I remember correctly.
I guess just about to go into it.
All right.
Clint just got shot down.
You want to make sure we're all synced up.
Yep.
Do they choose where they go in these tunnels?
I still haven't figured that out.
Are they just kind of just going?
I don't think the person themselves is choosing. I think
it's like whoever's behind the computer.
So in this case, Bruce Banner and Tony Stark.
I think they'll program
it to wherever.
I want to watch very
carefully here to see. I think he takes the baseball
mitt, in which case like
bro, you're taking the baseball mitt from a different
timeline. You got to go give that back.
I thought that's a problem. Steve Rogers should have went, you know, when he gave that hammer back.
It should have been like just a hammer and a baseball mitt.
They were like, Steve, what the fuck?
He's like, Clint took it.
He was an idiot.
Like, he didn't understand the rules of time travel at all.
I also liked how they took the glove because I also felt,
I don't know if it was meant to be or just my brain created it,
but it's like the gauntlet, right?
The gauntlet is what did this all.
And it's kind of a glove.
And it's a baseball glove.
Yeah.
And we're stealing the gauntlet in the sense of the stones are going to be taken.
You want to know something fucking crazy that's probably going to blow your mind, that blew my mind the first time I heard it?
I don't know if you know this yet.
The Quantum Realm suits don't exist.
Complete CGI on everybody.
Holy shit.
Really?
Yeah.
That just seems like a waste of money.
Game of Thrones couldn't give me dragons in episodes because of CGI.
These guys are just throwing suits.
They wouldn't make suits from them?
What in the world?
Why?
That's my big thing.
Yeah.
The scene, especially the scene where they're all walking up.
When we look at that, you'll be blown away.
It was complete CGI.
All of the suits.
I'd love to hear the reasoning for that.
I guess they find you know
that's the way it'll look the best
I think the Spider-Man suit
is complete CGI too
I don't think Spider-Man
I don't think Tom Holland
ever wears a Spider-Man suit
What about Iron Man?
The Iron Man suit
that has been
and it hasn't been
so like
I know the rescue suit
is only like
really from the mid
middle section of her chest up
and everything below that is regular
I don't know if that's for light reflection
or whatever however they do it
very interesting how they do all this shit though
obviously uh
I'm sure there's some behind the scenes featurettes on this
oh yeah I'm sure
the commentary by the Russo brothers
is a little different it's probably pretty thorough
and if you're interested in that CGI shit there's actually
a YouTube channel called Node,
N-O-D-E, and they
do this series where they bring in like
VFX artists and they do react.
So they'll watch certain clips from certain movies
and break down why it looks great or why it looks bad.
Shout out to them. I've enjoyed all those videos.
And this is awesome. This is just
MCU nerd porn
where they're just going through the entire
catalog of movies
and they're like where have the stones been
where can we do this
at the Russo Brothers Comic Con panel this year
they had an awesome graphic that they
showed on the screen that was basically
their version of this scene
where they were like okay where can we send these characters
and they mapped out everywhere and they mapped out everywhere it was a dry erase yeah and they mapped out everywhere so
that was cool you could find that online i like that he has like a lebowski kind of sweater going
on here yes completely i also talked to you about this i wish i had never known i don't know if he
said it on the pod but i wish i had never known that they were going back in time it would have
been impossible to keep that under wraps but But that would have been a great surprise.
But kind of how they're all figuring it out and explaining the stones, too, which, like, you have to realize not all these people know the Infinity.
They didn't watch Infinity War.
They weren't in Infinity War.
Yeah.
Great, great cutaway to Chris Evans there.
Just what?
What are you talking about, dude?
The first time he says he's like, it's also not a stone.
It's sludge.
It's a sludge type.
That's the first time that's ever addressed, that one of the Infinity Stones we've never seen is a stone.
Did he call it an angry sludge or something like that?
I thought of Ghostbusters 2 when he says that.
Oh, yeah.
And I was like, it's kind of like Ghostbusters 2.
Yeah.
War Machine seems like just, I guess, Rhodey is a character, not his superhero's fake name, as Peter Parker would say.
But Rhodey is someone that the more you see him on screen, the more character he's actually going to show. And I feel like he bases his character off of himself, which I think a lot of people in the Avengers at this point are sort of doing.
Because Hulk in the giant Ben and Jerry's, not enough people have talked about how big that giant Ben and Jerry's is.
It gets me so mad.
That's a huge Ben and Jerry's.
That should be the biggest story of this movie.
I'm sorry.
If Ben and Jerry's, I don't care about flavors.
Give me just a giant one-gallon tub of Ben and jerry's it makes it easier in those little pints
awesome i think i'm gonna go get a pint of ben and jerry's right after we record this that sounds
awesome what's your go-to ben and jerry's flavor uh it's gonna surprise you i think uh cookie dough
was like my my like base but i think half baked would be if i had like a choice that's my brothers
wasn't that it's uh half uh cookie dough and then half the brownie
and stuff like that. What about you? What about
Roger Fox? I go Chunky Monkey. I'm a big
banana guy. I love banana. My one
grape with Chunky Monkey, I don't love the walnuts.
I kind of eat around them, but it's banana, ice
cream, walnuts, and then little chunks of dark
chocolate, and then I'll also go
Americone Dream. I love Americone
Dream. That's like a fastball down the middle. It'll
never be bad. First time I had Americone Dream, I go, this is dangerous.
I could eat a thousand tubs of this right now.
And the slices, too.
Have you ever had the Ben & Jerry's slices?
Yes.
The Americone Dream slices?
So good.
I don't know if there's a company, a food company, that delivers more on their quality of product than Ben & Jerry's.
It's just quality every single time.
Every time they premiere a new flavor, it's always awesome.
So good.
All right.
Speaking of CGI, so here you go.
From what I saw, everyone is wearing their normal Avenger suits in this.
And they have mo-cap sensors all over themselves.
So all CGI.
They know when to play that Avenger song too.
It just fucking...
It slaps. Can I say it slaps?
Is that something the kids would say for this?
It slaps different. Just slaps different when they're wearing the suit cgi it really does
we got a nice huddle i like rockets like reaching up with the prize tippy toes
and a bit of a meta almost fourth wall breaking moment from scott lang after this amazing steve
rogers let's go fucking get him speech It's just the first time he ever really
experiences one of those.
He makes a comment where he's like, man, he's really good
at those speeches, huh?
Whatever it takes.
Jolly Green.
I don't understand how this thing works
where it's small in his hand
I'm not going to try
to understand it
I don't even attempt
I'm sure
some kind of
nerds that are into science
are into that
that's fucked up
someone said that
look
see you in a minute
see you in a minute
not so
old takes exposed
right there.
Don't old takes expose. I'm sorry.
You cannot old takes expose the dead.
That's a rule. That is a fair rule.
I didn't realize that was a rule.
Cancel the dead. We learned that with John Wayne.
You cannot old takes expose
the dead clone. That's just rude.
And we're off.
I feel like they were like, oh, Scarlet Witch.
Scarlet Johansson's smiling
Black Widow's smiling
She has to die now
She actually felt happiness
For once in her life
This was also
You know a huge cheer
From the theater
As soon as it cuts to New York
We know we're going back
Into that first Avengers movie
The circle up
So fucking good
That might be my favorite
Iron Man suit by the way
I think that might be it
The first Avengers suit
So good
Your boy looks ridiculous With those little wings on his ears.
I remember thinking that even when the movie came out, being like, damn, it's ridiculous.
That was like a goosebumps moment.
And then this movie came in and has 10 better goosebumps than that, which is still an all-time great goosebumps moment.
And this is all-time as well.
I love that.
I love that guy running away.
He's just like oh i cannot compete
with this guy what am i doing so funny so this really is like like i said the three episode
series like the first one is the avengers morning it's the epilogue of infinity war it's everything
that happened afterwards and it sets up the story now we're into the middle section. This is the time heist.
For the next hour, we're getting straight time heist.
It is literally like a heist movie.
It's awesome.
And it's funny, too, because in my mind, everything is uneven.
The fact that it is so, like, paced.
But it's like I wouldn't even know which one's longer because they really do just keep you going the entire time.
Yeah.
And now we're seeing Bleaker Street during the attack of New York.
And seeing the ancient one, you're like,
oh, we're doing this?
Seeing a character that wasn't in the original Avengers
is very cool, too, even though she's in the city.
Also, how about a little hairy chest Hulk?
Looking fucking...
Looking like a daddy, as they say.
The fact she knows who steven strange is already do you think that she did that to his car that they do that to him being like we need him and then they do it or they just like
fate take it no fate's gonna happen i bet it's just a fate thing yeah but they they seem like
the kind of you know even if they need him they wouldn't resort to that kind of vicious violence.
I love every time she does that, she knocks the soul out of someone.
The first time she did it to Doctor Strange and that movie was awesome.
That's actually become one of my like I'll throw on Doctor Strange whenever I'm working or something.
Do something like that.
Throw it on in the background.
Throw it in the background.
Been a real good one of those.
Doctor Strange, Ragnarok.
I mean my Chinese bootleg of Endgame.
Infinity War.
This had to be very emotional for Thor.
Not only seeing his mother.
Not only seeing Jane, but seeing Asgard.
Which he hasn't seen in years.
That's right.
So Asgard has gone altogether.
Thor has had a hell of a go.
Think about going back to your hometown.
Even me.
I moved out when I was 19.
I've lived in the city a little over two years, I think.
Even when I go back to my hometown where my mom doesn't live anymore, I'm like, man, this is weird to see it.
I used to be here every single day.
How weird is that?
Now, a planet that doesn't exist, or I guess not a planet.
Destroyed by a fucking fire monster.
Yeah.
Now, actually seeing it and being like, this doesn't exist.
This is the only time I will ever be back here. Yeah. Now actually singing and being like, this doesn't exist. This is the only time I will ever be back here.
Crazy.
And it's like, how would you even feel if you went back?
It would almost feel like you're in a dream, right?
Yeah.
But you are like, I feel like it's in a dream and I'm watching it as a movie.
Some things are differently than you remembered.
Yeah.
And you're like, what the fuck?
I went back to my elementary school because Sienna's going to be going there now.
Now that we're in the same town.
It's really cool.
And I'd go to the lunchroom and the gym.
Are there any teachers that are still there?
There might be, but no one that I've seen yet.
Maybe like, I think the teachers that were young,
like brand new, are now probably old grizzled vets.
That was the case with me.
My parents went to my high school.
This is, by the way, the most relatable scene
in the history of the MCU for me.
Thor's little panic attack there.
Yes.
I'm like, yes!
Superheroes have panic attacks.
Amazing.
They have anxiety like me.
Just like us.
But there were some teachers I remember that didn't like my dad, that hated my dad, that held grudges against me.
Oh, that's fucked up.
It was crazy.
Rocket's a great friend.
Rocket's really underrated as a friend.
He gets that cold heart reputation.
But when it comes down to it, when it comes down to playtime, he's constantly giving these awesome pump-up speeches.
He gave one to Thor on the ship in Infinity War.
He talks to Groot all the time.
I mean, at the end of this movie, he basically sacrifices his life for Groot.
He dives over him.
Yeah, that's right.
We'll see Captain Marvel come into the equation.
We'll get to that later.
M&M.
Hard on the outside, sweet on the inside.
And he, I think he even does that kind of with, is it Yondu that he has like a big?
With Yondu.
Or Yondu kind of like breaks him down where he's like, hey man.
Does it with Yondu and even when they first get back to Earth, he goes right over to Nebula.
Yeah, that's right.
Rocket, fucking good guy.
Good guy.
Heart of gold, man.
Heart of gold.
Morag, here's your moment coming up here.
I missed it the first time, too.
How fucked up is that?
You missed it?
I ran to the bathroom by the end of that thing.
Oh, clam.
Yep.
Because I had to pee, and I was like, this is going to ruin the rest of the movie for me if I don't do it now.
I never went to the bathroom in the middle of Endgame.
I think I went to the bathroom every single time.
At least twice, every single viewing except for the viewing I went with you.
Somehow I held it in for the time when I already knew everything that was happening.
Oh, jeez.
If you have to go today, I could carry the load.
Yeah.
Guys, you guys can pause the podcast and pause the movie. That's the best part
about having it at home now, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Quick drop off. You might
hear some extracurricular going
on because the studios at Barstool are
not soundproof and I think they might be doing, what are they
doing, PMT in there? Sounds like
a wrestling match of some sort. There might
be an actual battle against Thanos
next door.
Shout out all Biz Pete.
Not soundproofing podcast rooms.
Why would you do that?
These two had to have that ship programmed, right?
Neither of them knows how to fly a fucking spaceship.
I think they said there's a line with Nebula about,
all right, we're all good, just hit the green button and you're good.
Good. all good just hit like the green button and you're good good i don't know i mean we're i don't mean
to suck this movie's dick for three hours straight but i do mean to suck this movie's dick for three
hours straight the fact that they paired these two together both having that half human half robot
thing going on so fucking smart and both coming you know, kind of different sides of it, where Don Cheadle
and Rhodey, he's been...
He's just been a human his whole life, and now
he has these robot legs, and Nebula being an actual
half-robot, half-you, who doesn't know how
to operate, doesn't know how to get in touch with her emotions.
Just brilliant.
The pairings, everything about it,
everything down to the finest details of this
movie are brilliant. The entrance
here of Gamora, the first time we're seeing her since we saw her die, sacrifice herself.
Coming out of the smoke like that, looking like a warrior.
Amazing.
It must be so annoying to have them.
I was going to say it's such a dominant older sibling, but I'm the older sibling, so I guess that's how my brother feels about me.
Sorry, man.
Oh, damn.
We'll burn.
We'll burn on the pod and i love that even in the background of these shots you can see those big like flying aliens
from the first uh avengers they're in the final battle of this movie those donut chips were so
weird i dug them though like i dug that they were like thanos's thing. He got a deal on them. Yeah, he did.
Thanos' office manager went to W.B. Mason of space and got him.
And this is another big oh shit moment.
When he comes out with that shield.
Any time you really see Thanos, and we talked about this in our recap,
but Thanos from this point on is way more vicious than he was in Infinity War.
He's less mature.
Sloppier.
He's sloppier.
He's way, way, way cooler with killing.
He hasn't lost everything yet, which makes him scarier to me.
Oh, yeah.
He's more unpredictable, I would say.
That's the best way I would go about it.
The younger Thanos is just more unpredictable.
He's just starting his plan.
I mean, first Infinity Stone is in grasp now.
I still can't believe we never ended up going to...
Where did he get the Power Stone from?
Oh, Xandar.
Yeah, we never ended up going to Xandar in this or Infinity War.
I thought that's why they didn't show it in the first one.
Yeah, me too.
Oh, because we're going to get the Battle of Xandar.
That'll be huge.
But I actually really enjoy the fact
that the final battle with Tony
and with Steve and all them
was actually at the Avengers headquarters.
You see that in cartoons all the time,
like superhero cartoons
of the villain has showed up,
they found out where the headquarters is.
At the base, yeah.
So the fact that...
Wayne Manor just got its dick kicked in
for the 1,000th time.
Exactly, yeah.
What was that, Batman Forever?
When they show up to Wayne Manor?
Yeah.
Someone said this is
the Thanos copter blade.
I choose to believe that
because I love the
Thanos copter.
If you don't know
what the Thanos copter is,
look at it.
Google images it.
It's one of the funniest
things you'll ever see.
Thanos copter.
How is that real life?
I cannot believe it.
That was, I guess,
what, the 80s? That was the 80s in Marvel Comics. Now, I will say, it's so how is that real life I cannot believe that was I guess what
the 80s
that was the 80s
in Marvel comics
now I will say
I just said
the first Avengers
Iron Man suit
was my favorite
that might be
a close second
the Endgame one
because the Endgame one
is such a shout out
and a nod to the original
comic suit
with the yellow
golden arms
golden legs
really really awesome
I love how it seems a little heavier on him it's clunkier because it's not all fucking new tech Golden arms, golden legs. Really, really awesome.
I love how it seems a little heavier on him.
It's clunkier because it's not all fucking new tech.
That booty.
And I know they're like, the Russo brothers were writing that and they were so cocky that they were like, this is the last movie.
This is the most important.
People are going to hang on every word.
They're like, let's throw in a joke about Captain America's ass.
Seeing this squad of people was crazy.
Yeah, like crossbones coming out of that elevator.
All the Hydra boys.
Do you think they have like a group text chain that says like Hydra boys with a Z at the end of it too?
Definitely.
Or like the little snake boys or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The little snake emoji.
They look like bad guys.
But sometimes that does play out.
Like, you know, it's like stereotypes exist for a reason sometimes.
Totally.
And all the back story of how, you know, he's getting there.
He put the whatever restrainer on him.
And how they want to have lunch.
They say something about having lunch, which obviously gets a form on it.
Perfect flick there, which Tony Stark was perfecting in the beginning,
playing paper football.
Yep.
Good call, good call.
Him diving out of Avengers headquarters here,
like he did in the first Avengers.
Such a cocky move, too.
You know, he gets thrown out, and he stops himself at the last minute, right before the ground.
Apparently that would kill you in real life.
I learned that.
Is it because, like, your fear, or?
No, your velocity.
If you stopped and, like, changed direction like that, you would be crushed inside the suit.
Huh.
You would crush yourself.
It's the old Jimma-do paradox or something.
That's something Tony has figured out.
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
And the misdirection here.
Another thing that's just so good.
It's just so damn good.
And of course, back to their first movie
which was this.
The fact they did callbacks
inside of callbacks from other movies
that's not even part of the event
it's incredible.
I know.
And over everything else
it's cocky.
It's cocky.
They knew everyone was going to get it.
They knew it.
But they don't do it with violence this time
which is awesome too.
I know.
What a twist they do.
It's like when you speaking of Lego Wars, when you go back through the level free play mode as Boba Fett and you just, like, jet pack to the end.
Like, this is pointless.
Amazing.
Captain America, Steve Rogers, dropping a Hail Hydra,
which he actually dropped in the comics a few years ago,
and it was one of the most controversial, like, talked-about things in the world.
And I think it wound up being a bit of a misdirection like that as well, but the way they gave fans even, fans that talked about, you know,
Captain America saying Hail Hydra, that frame, I remember,
was the last frame of a comic.
It was just him saying it.
It was like, what the fuck?
Mind-blowing stuff.
For them to pay that off.
Fat people get mad about stuff with a pin.
Let them just explain it.
It doesn't have to be like, oh, he was really Hydra the entire time.
Then again, I still get mad that Stone Cold ever became an alliance with Vince McMahon.
Totally.
WrestleMania 17, that ruins that match for me.
Oh, you knew the WrestleMania.
Yeah.
That's good.
So, yeah.
I kind of understand where you're coming from.
End of the Attitude Era for a lot of people.
That's what's largely considered the end of the Attitude Era
and the beginning of the Ruthless Aggression Era.
You know?
It's probably around the time I stopped really watching.
Do you know what year that was?
It would have been 2000, 2001, around that era.
Okay, so that's around the time I watched here and there.
The fact that Matthew Berry is fucking weird.
I didn't know who he was before or afterwards.
There he is on the right there.
Very bizarre. He's the one who's in NFL
fantasy football. He's the fantasy guy for ESPN.
Yeah, the talent for Mr. Roto.
Which is all owned by Disney.
The mouse owns everything in the planet that's good.
Yeah, Disney beat Disney.
Congratulations to Disney.
Well, Disney watches on, I think Kevin Smith said.
Also, he said he was going to be retired from acting,
and then they gave him a call.
They were like, hey, sorry, you have to reprise your role.
We're doing Endgame.
It's going to be the biggest movie on the planet ever.
He's like, oh, okay, cool. Casual heart attack here. We're doing Endgame. It's going to be the biggest movie on the planet ever.
Casual heart attack here.
I suffered from one of those once.
Smoked too much weed, actually. Smoked too much weed.
My guy Bob Fox saw him perform.
Pop Punk killed it.
And the last thing he says before I say goodbye to him, he goes, I need to find some weed.
I'm like, I did.
What kind of a bassist doesn't have a weed hookup already?
You haven't been in a band long enough, Bob.
You got to at least have a weed guy.
No, I had one.
I lost him.
Okay, there you go.
And here's the intro to Disney Plus, Loki.
Which I think you called as soon as we did the recap.
Definitely.
Because that's the last time we see Loki
So I figured why else would you do that
Unless you're setting something up
What's the name of the Loki actor again?
Tom Hiddleston
Perfect casting by basically everything
Then this is like This is another oh shit in a bad way moment.
You're like, what the fuck?
We just lost so close.
You had it.
The Tesseract has been the most used Infinity Stone.
It's been in the most movies.
We're just like, God, and here we go.
Here we go.
Mortal Kombat.
Two people that pick the same character that are just slightly different, so you
could tell on the side-scroller.
And I always said, like, if you're gonna have a Captain vs. Cap
and it can't be, like, a shapeshifter, it has to be
the legit Cap on Cap, and there's no other way you could do it
other than something like this, really.
So awesome.
I saw a behind-the-scenes clip of Chris Evans
and he was wearing that,
you know, the original thing, and he's like,
I cannot believe I did an entire movie in this.
Disregard for the shields there.
Yeah.
This was, by the way, this was the moment right here when we saw this movie in 4D where I was maybe out on the 4D.
Because they both fall off this thing here.
It was the first time in the entire movie where the chairs punched us in the back.
And I was like, Jesus Christ, I don't want to fall off this thing.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm not ready for this life.
Not ready.
And this was like, it's the inception token, you know?
It's like the thing where it's like, wait, wait, what's going on?
How do you have this?
This is how you know it's real.
This may not be Loki after all.
Yeah.
A little rear naked choke.
Captain America getting one hook in there.
That's proper MMA form.
Then to escape the choke, he just spoils the plot line of the next Captain America movie for him.
Spoiler, bro.
You know what's funny about that thing is that when the first Avengers movie came out,
Kevin Smith started calling it the Loki Pokey Stick, if you know what it's called.
And I just adapted that because I adapt everything from Kevin Smith.
I'm just like, yeah, let me take that from him.
Let me take that from him.
And now Luke, my nephew, calls it that.
Like that's just what he thinks it's called. That's what it's actually called.
This is like one of the only scenes with Mark Ruffalo actually in the movie.
Beginning and then this.
Yeah.
That's a good point.
I wonder if he had a thing in his contract where he's like, can you just let me act for one scene?
Just one scene is me.
No time.
Remove one stone.
Oh, shit.
And that's the one thing.
Now, this may benefit your reality.
But my new one, not so much. And this is almost the rewriting for them of like, listen, at the end of this movie, we'll fix the timeline.
Don't worry about it.
We'll fucking figure it out.
Somehow, someway, we will unfuck the time.
Because everyone's doing like, well, if they take this, everything's going to be screwed up. And we have literally a visual representation of her being like, no, look, we can fix it.
And it will still be a straight line.
She takes away that little black smoke.
I love it.
She doesn't have the green one in there.
And then he.
Yeah.
No, it's cool.
And it's like, yep, see, it's gone.
Everything's back to normal.
We're good.
We'll fix it.
Don't worry about it.
Don't get your panties in a bunch of nerds.
I am smart as shit, girl.
You may be old as shit, but I'm smart as shit.
Yeah.
Motherfucking Bruce Banner.
It's fair.
That's fair from her.
Yes.
Cannot risk it on a promise from some dude you've never met.
Her? Yes. Cannot risk it on a promise from some dude you've never met. She's like, oh, that motherfucker must have had something up his sleeve that even I didn't think of.
I have no idea.
Maybe he made a mistake.
Her being in this movie was such like a great call and it this this all of endgame was really what i wanted the last episode season of game of thrones to be it's like the callbacks the the
people that you thought were gonna be a special effect here by the way that was so cool so cool
i i don't even remember that to be honest every single time I've watched the movie, I've had a moment where I was like, that was so awesome.
Every single time I've watched them, that's the coolest special effect.
If you ask me how does he get back in the body, I wouldn't have.
I would have thought he took the thing and then just whooshes.
Like the human goes back instead of the Hulk going back.
Yeah, that was awesome.
Just kidding, bitch.
He didn't do that.
One of the weirdest elements
it's the one that like
floats and shit
yeah
which we talked about
we thought there was
something afoot with that
in the pre-end game podcast
I thought it was
some kind of time paradox
like that
I'd love to hear
our theories
going back to that shit
now
I know right
you're probably so wrong
god
we should do one of those
you can all take
expose us
so we can do that.
Yes, that's a good call.
Theories on that one.
And I have a ton of them.
There's our guy, Ebony Maw.
My guy.
Who we want more of
in Infinity War.
Great character.
I remember we liked him.
I remember Fran didn't like him.
I'm like, you didn't like Ebony?
He's not like Ebony Maw.
What a creepy
librarian-ass Squidward.
Yeah.
Squidward.
I love you called Squidward too.
I love seeing him at his too. I love seeing him at
his full.
I wish he had some
more in the battle
scene.
I wish he had some
more like he was
so effortless.
Yeah.
It's just like a flick
of his finger and you
know a car would go
flying across the
block or something.
Thanos's guys are a
real problem because
Ebony Maw is the
perfect guy when you're
not expecting it.
It's like an RPG when
the guys hit you from
behind.
Yeah.
Everything hurts more of Ebony just had that he was such a great're not expecting it. It's like an RPG when the guys hit you from behind and everything hurts more.
Ebony just had this.
And he was such a great match for Doctor Strange in the both wizardry powers.
And they both knew spells that would unlock another spell or whatever it was.
And their little quips.
The thing is you can usually disarm with a good quip, but they were quipping the shit out of each other.
Yeah.
It's quite unbreakable.
And Doctor Strange hits him with the spell from Home Alone where you heat up the doorknob.
Yes. The spell from Home Alone where you heat up the doorknob. Yes.
The spell from Home Alone.
A major oh shit moment here where it's like, no!
Stop, Nebula!
He can't know! This is a classic, also CSI, you know, enhance.
Yes.
And it's like the fact Thanos would even think to like see that.
It's like Portnoy.
Like Dave will come in the office and say, like, what is this happening?
How did you pick that up?
And it's like, guy just has the eye, man.
It's a good comparison.
Right?
Oh, don't put on the record I'm comparing Dave to Thanos.
Or maybe two.
I don't know.
I think he'd appreciate it.
He would like it.
He compares himself to like the Emperor and the Death Star.
That's true.
I think Dave embraces the bad guy role.
I think he likes it.
Dave Portnoy is as good of a leader as Thanos.
Take that, Deke Zucker.
Put that on there.
I don't want to.
But you should say like 2017 Thanos or whatever. Infinity as Thanos. Take that Deke Zucker. Put that on there. I don't want to... But you should say
2017 Thanos
or whatever. Infinity War Thanos.
Infinity War Thanos wins. That's true.
This Thanos has
some flaws in his plan.
That might have been like old
Barstool Dave where he was like
how it's your game. 2014 Thanos would
have definitely blogged Brady's kids.
Yeah. Yeah.
Renee Russo.
Ageless.
Absolutely ageless.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She looks exactly like she did in the first two Thor movies.
She looked exactly like she did in Major League, which was like 1989.
She's one of those people that like they look young, old. You look old, young.
And then as they get older, they stay about the same.
The woman that's married to Ted Danson in Curb, I forgot her name.
She's in Back to the Future 3.
She's in a bunch of stuff.
I have not seen 3.
I was told I don't have to watch that one.
No, you don't have to watch that one.
You can, but you don't have to.
But yeah, Rene Russo.
Would you recommend it?
Yeah, because it ties up people.
Do people look at it like it's the prequels or no?
No, I'd say it's like, I'm trying to think of a good, it's kind of like Jedi, I'd say.
It's a little worse than Jedi.
All right.
Where I think one is the best, two, well, two is the best.
We're only going to start with Star Wars.
But yeah, I think you should watch it.
It's probably one of the better three of a trilogy.
It just takes place in the Wild West.
I don't know if you knew that.
I did know that, yeah.
So it's like I'm not a big Wild West guy.
The thing about Hemsworth here, Rainier Russo and Anthony Hopkins, right?
Those are the parents?
Yep.
I mean, that would make a beautiful-looking baby.
Correct.
I'm sorry.
I'm just completely blinded by Natalie Portman, one of my all-time crushes.
Queen Amidala.
You have a type,
Bob. I think it's the brunette.
We got Daisy. We got Nat. That's also
two of Star Wars royalty.
And the other one, my top three are
Daisy and Portman and then
Hayley Williams is my number one ever.
She's a blonde. Who's Hayley?
Singer Paramore. Always has crazy hair.
Mixes it up a ton.
So I don't know if brunette is my thing because a blonde is my number one.
That's interesting.
Yeah.
Again, two Star Wars people.
And then Emma Stone's right outside that is a redhead.
Is a redhead.
Okay.
So Bob Fox.
Big redhead guy.
Ladies.
Huge redhead guy.
You all have a chance at Bob Fox.
You're in a redhead phase?
Yeah.
Well, not a phase.
No, always.
Always for life.
I'm a big redhead guy.
That's why I like Black Widow so much.
And then a little blonde in there, too. You're all over the place. Yep. Yep. Well, not a face. No, always. Always a big redhead guy. That's why I like Black Widow so much. And then a little blonde in there, too.
You're all over the place.
Yep.
Yep.
A little bit of everything.
I don't discriminate.
I don't see color.
That's why I love you, Ben.
Me and Steve Rogers.
Accepting of all, including everyone that has different colored hair.
I love that Rocket Raccoon when he's running away, he's running away on all fours like an actual raccoon. And they say, get the rabbit. I love that Rocket Raccoon when he's running away is running away on all fours
like an actual raccoon.
And they say,
get the rabbit.
I love that line.
Everyone from Asgard
just views them as rabbits.
This is actually
when I went to the bathroom
after they left
and I literally miss
the best scene
in the movie for me.
Damn.
Must be Ma
And like he like knows
What happens to her too
Right
Yeah
So it like breaks his heart
That
He's probably worried
At the same time
That Thor's not changing shit
Like
Yeah
Better not have told her
Like we can't fuck this up dude
Rocket's definitely like
I got the weakest link
Of everyone here
Yeah
Fucking
The emo god right now
Yeah
It's going through some shit.
Because his planet, his girlfriend, and his mom are all going to be gone after today.
What do you think modern Thor was thinking when this happened?
Modern Thor?
Thor's in Asgard right now, right?
Like a 20, 30 Thor?
Oh, yeah.
What is he doing right now?
What's he thinking right now when he's like, where the fuck did my hammer just go?
What just happened?
Modern Thor just got killed by a pack of evil elves right there because he didn't have his hammer.
He has to learn the lessons that he learned in Ragnarok way too soon.
God, I fucking love Chris Pratt.
I love Chris Pratt.
We're in the Parks and Rec.
I'm like, oh, now I see why he became Star Wars
because he is the most charming motherfucker in the world.
The most charming guy ever. Him and April
Ludgate, one of the best couples ever.
And it's also doughy Chris Pratt, so it's before he
really becomes, and now he's an
A-lister, right? Definitely.
I love that we see that
angle of him singing because everyone does that singing with the headphones on.
They're completely off key.
Dude, I do it every day when I go home.
I'm usually home right before Trent.
I still got my headphones on and I am on stage.
You know, I'm that live aid.
He's an idiot.
Walloped.
Just walloped.
And that's the thing.
Star-Lord's one of the guys, if you hit him like a hero, you're like hero you're like haha like Star-Lord got hurt it's a comedic punch of all time yeah
do you think we'll ever get a Steve Rogers when he returns the stones?
I'm just thinking this going back to the Thor thing.
Maybe in a what if.
Yeah, it could be.
Could be in a what if.
I didn't see his name on the cast of voice actors, but maybe they're keeping that one a secret.
I mean, the concept of him returning the soul stone to Red Skull has been brought up so many times by so many fans.
I feel like even if it's not in the first season of what If, Marvel's got to give that to people at some point.
Because especially in a show like What If, like if it's a cartoon show, and I don't know how long the episodes are going to be.
I don't know if they'll be a half hour, an hour.
I don't know if they'll be ten minutes.
I think you do it where you're like they're all different.
I think do some What If stories that are two minutes long, some that are an hour long.
And I think just change it on the tone or something.
I think you could make a hysterical 10 minutes short about Captain America returning the stone to Red Skull.
Or five minutes even.
You don't need a lot of time to hit that joke.
Red Skull's entire existence, though, that just makes me laugh.
You need it to be very awkward and you need Red Skull to break character, basically.
And you need him to get upset upset this is bullshit yeah and now we're up so this is how it's all gonna go down
yeah nebula this is when i started thinking that nebula was gonna be the one to kill thanos because
she we talked about it is the one to do it in the comic. And when they start making it where she's kind of the focal point or she's the MacGuffin, I guess, I was like, they might give this to her, which I'm glad they didn't.
He's a bit proud looking on.
Yeah.
His plan is complete, even though he probably senses that the Avengers are about to kill him. They got him cornered. He basically just, I mean, his plan. He did what he wanted looking on. Yeah. His plan is complete. Even though, you know, he probably senses that the Avengers are about to kill him.
They got him cornered.
He basically just, I mean, his plan.
He did what he wanted to do.
Yeah.
It just started, basically.
I mean, how long is this after he said, I'm going to do it myself, right?
Yeah.
And then here we are.
That's a hell of a feeling.
Yeah, it is.
And then, can you imagine seeing yourself get decapitated?
Like, that probably
should make your brain explode.
It's one of those things
you just never see.
I feel like Maul
is the best guy to have.
Like, I feel like
out of all his friends,
Maul's his best guy.
Like, he's the guy
who helps him move.
He'll pick him up
at the airport.
Definitely.
No doubt about it.
Oh! And look,
doesn't even flinch.
And Gamora's like,
oh shit.
Yeah.
Gamora got a little
wet downstairs.
And he says immediately,
yeah,
he says,
destiny fulfilled.
He's like,
cool.
That's how you know
he's a bad motherfucker.
He literally does not
give a fuck what happened
to him afterwards.
He's like,
cool,
I did it.
That's what I said I was going to do.'s like cool I did it I didn't do it
the whole nebula one foot
in the I hate Thanos water the one foot out
it's it's one of those things that doesn't make sense but it
also makes perfect sense so I can't even like pick
it apart you know and the only reason
she is what she is is because she saw the
other side of the snap she won a fucking paper football game and yep here we go and the subtlety of giving her
the orange much like the you know steve rogers yeah rogers the mortal combat type thing make
her just slightly different so the audience knows at all times. Like, okay, that's the one we like.
Which for an old person
like me, I really appreciate because I get confused
easier now than I used to when I was younger.
That's gotta be Star Wars inspired. The Star Destroyer
coming over, that has to be.
No one the Russo brothers. And also,
I was not the first person
to make this comparison. I want to say Mark Bernardin
was on Twitter. He does a bunch of film
journalism and shit. He said that the way Marcus and McFeely, the writers of this movie, I want to say Mark Bernardin was on Twitter. He does a bunch of film journalism and shit.
He said that the way Marcus and McFeely, the writers of this movie, write,
reminds him more of Lawrence Kasdan than anyone else.
He's like, these movies make me feel the same exact way that Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
Shit like that made me feel, which Lawrence Kasdan didn't write Return of the Jedi,
so I don't know why I said that.
But even like Indiana Jones, you know, those movies that Larry did.
Tony's got a crazy idea.
Do we know how he knows this date?
Like, is it in an old movie?
See, I didn't understand, and it confused me because he says to his father, like, how long is she? He's talking about his wife, which I guess he's just making casual conversation, but he would know based on exactly where they went back to.
Yeah.
How far, like, he knows when he's going to be born.
Yeah. conversation but he would know based on exactly where they went back to yeah how far like he knows when he's gonna be born yeah i'm sure there is some kind of in canon reason why like he had that facial reaction of like oh wait a minute i know this there's probably a one word dialogue like
one sentence thing comic that they're you know off. Look at that Windbreaker's got with the
S.H.I.E.L.D. logo. That's kind of fire.
I'll get that for the winter.
I already have my Quantum Realm
sweatshirt though, which is not CGI.
It's pretty fire.
I also just ordered myself a bunch of, I guess
they call them parkas. They like go up
to your neck. It's what Liam Gallagher from
Oasis wears. I just ordered him because I think he's the coolest
guy in the world.
So I was like,
I want to look like that guy.
Just ordered a bunch of parkas.
This is a rock and roll song.
July 31st, Clem.
Yeah.
What I'm doing.
One more standing ovation I'll request
for this scene right here.
For our guy?
For our guy.
Come on.
I'll give it to you.
Great final words. Great final words by the man. Great final words
Great final words
By the man
Great final words
From Stan the man
Here we are
The birthplace of Captain America
New Jersey
Gotta love that
I was gonna say
Hang our hat on that
Anybody from Jersey
Like there's a part of you Rob
That's smiling
Beaming right now
There really is
And I'm not like
I'm not a huge Jersey guy
Like I don't have a ton of pride
In where I'm from
I don't have a ton of pride In Jersey I don't have a ton of pride in where I'm from.
I don't have a ton of pride in Jersey.
I don't have a ton of pride in New York even.
But when I see Captain America, Birthplace, and Jersey,
when I see that title card that just says New Jersey,
I was like, yeah, that's me.
I thought you were making me give a standing ovation for Jersey.
I'm like, it's going to be tough.
I'll do it because it's your bomb's basement. The last cameo in the MCU.
And he is the man we have to thank for all of this.
He's the man that you have to thank for this podcast right now.
This podcast doesn't exist without Stan.
I love that his license plate is like 420 LRO.
Yep.
And enough said, too.
That was always a great line in the comics.
All right.
So those glasses.
Are those what he has?
Those look like the glasses he was wearing before.
I think they're the same things because he hit them and they gave him the infrared.
So I want to say they were just the same glasses he was wearing.
Yeah, because I was thinking there's no way he got cool.
Dated fashion style.
Yeah.
He couldn't find cool glasses laying around like someone's desk in the 70s.
There it is.
The way that glows is very cool too through the 70s. There it is. The way that glows is very cool, too.
Through the whole infrared.
Little Avengers theme in the background there.
So fucking great.
So fucking great.
Shout out to the guy that does the score for these movies, too, because he's been doing them since the beginning.
A plus, plus, plus.
Totally.
I mean, the Avengers theme has now become one of the most iconic movie themes of all time.
Yep. It's very hard to do that nowadays, where you immediately just think Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Harry Potter.
You think of all John Williams scores, basically.
Now, Avengers joins the echelon and this was the second moment I said my boy my dog Tony
Stark is in some trouble because when he meets his dad which has always been like the you know
says his goodbye and all that stuff which he didn't get to do when they got killed he got as
much closure as he could through uh virtual reality with barf yeah barf he actually gets it here in
this movie and it's crazy it very much it's cool
to see tony stark almost starstruck yeah exactly the first time you ever see him like this
this would be me meeting tony's meeting uh robert downey jr
what do you think the coolest avenger would be to meet
i would say it's got to be the Chris's, right?
Pratt, Evans, and Hemsworth.
Yeah, I was going to say Thor was my answer.
They seem like the coolest.
Tom Holland seems like the fucking man, too.
I mean, they all seem awesome.
That's the thing.
There's no Avenger I wouldn't want to meet.
Yeah, every single one I think of,
I'm like, he is basically him or her
I love that nod
To the original Ant-Man helmet
That is so awesome
And this will always
Always fuck me up
Yeah, they just straight up
They actually made a time machine
And got young Michael Douglas in there
Or they just CGI'd his ass
Yeah, I think
I think they're keeping something from us
That looks like a wax statue From Madame Tussauds or whatever.
They just took a young Michael Douglas.
It's crazy.
Eventually, movies aren't even going to need actors.
We're going to watch Chris Evans star alongside Marlon Brando in a movie.
They have the little door there, so you see Henry Pym in case you haven't picked up on it yet.
Yep.
Boom.
We'll ants in the thing.
Another cue to the Avengers theme.
As soon as success goes for these guys, you get that nice cue.
Did you have an ant farm?
No.
I did.
It was just a bad idea.
Don't freak me out.
Yeah.
You don't want to have ants in your house whether or not they're contained because then they're going to get out sooner or later.
Here's a question.
Did you ever have, what do they call them?
Not seahorses.
Sea monkeys. Sea monkeys. I did. or not they're contained because then they're going to get out sooner or later. Here's a question. Did you ever have, what do they call them? Not seahorses, sea monkeys?
Sea monkeys.
I did.
They didn't really,
I think they probably were dead
by the time I got them.
They really didn't do much.
You know,
I never had them.
I guess it was past my time
or before my time,
whatever you say.
And my mom was telling me about them
and me and my sister,
we were so blown away.
We thought it was so funny.
I bought my sister sea monkeys
for Christmas this year.
Did you?
It was like a gag gift. Pretty funny. did you like it yeah i think it's like a
little shrimp if i remember i couldn't tell you it's like a packet you pour them into water and
then i don't even know if you could see him i don't know what the deal was i never checked back
in it could still be like just one of those gifts where i was just like isn't this funny yeah and i
didn't expect anything else after we need to think of that that's like the
next billion dollar idea is what's the next the pet rock the sea monkeys ant farm very cheap pets
that you can sell through the mail on the internet was kind of the tech version yeah true
and we had the bars i had i bought a tamagotchi What if you could have a Tamagotchi
But it's like
Look at that
She's still got a picture of him
Sad shit
That must be a top one feeling in the world
As your crush has a picture of you
True
I'll say this
He gets too
Loosey goosey here
He goes right up to that window
Didn't like that
My guy Stark is
Trying to stay as
Like whoa
Whoa whoa
Yeah
I would be like
Hit the deck.
He might have a boner right now.
We only see from the waist up.
I think he has a boner.
Which, I don't blame him.
I don't blame him.
Peggy Carter is a looker, for sure.
And she has your picture on her desk.
Or in this moment, he's like, oh my god, I fucked her niece.
Yeah.
This is really weird now. Because i think i have the opportunity to
fuck her again do you think he would probably open with that he's such an honest guy yeah yeah
yeah peggy yeah i fucked your uh peggy i gotta tell you something before we continue here
and she's like steve you're alive and he would and he would hit like the i had sexual relations
with your niece you know i had coitus premarital nonetheless we know. I had coitus. Premarital.
Nonetheless.
We had premarital
coitus.
I don't know if Cap
was honorable with
that hammer with that
premarital sex.
I guess we kind of
know where the hammer
stands on that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The hammer's like
fuck that.
You don't got to get
married.
I love that quick thumbs up.
Yeah, that was...
We got it.
Let's get the fuck out of here.
Steve Rogers has never been a sneak like that, too.
It probably kills him to be a sneak in real life.
I know.
Especially against his own people.
Yeah.
Like, this is the birthplace of Captain America.
He's like, come on.
He's already said, hail Hydra today.
It's like going into the hospital where you were born and stealing your own newborn baby.
Nails it. you were born and stealing your own you know newborn baby oh now that hurts to hear you know that hurts to hear he's like chill out bro don't be such a narc it's my fucking pops man howie Howie.
I love that he's like, fuck it, I'm going for it.
I want a hug. I want a hug right now.
And that was really like the death sentence for Tony Stark.
It's like you get to hug your dad too that you never got to.
It's like it's over now.
It's over, man.
And shout out to Jarvis here, who is the first actor from a Marvel TV show able to reprise his role in a movie.
Well, fun fact.
Another awesome thing where it's like the real diehards who have been watching, I mean, even more diehard than me, I guess, if you've been watching the shows because I haven't seen any of those.
If you've been watching all those and you get that payoff, that's awesome.
That's an awesome moment for them.
So the fact that they said, let's put a little nod like even to the niche corner of our hardcore fans who like the tv shit that was cool and also it works for the non-tv watchers
because in the moment i had no idea he was from a show and i was like jarvis jarvis oh my god
and they're only gonna pump that up now with disney plus and all that stuff and really make it
you know the payoff that comes if you watch the peggy carter show is really good agent carter
yeah people rave about that one.
They say if you're going for anyone, go for Agent Carter.
And I think Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. started off rocky, and I think they're about to end.
They just announced that they're doing the final season, which is six or seven.
But I think people say now they really enjoy it too.
So I'm sure if I got into them, I would like them.
I just haven't really ventured into that realm yet.
There was plenty of time. It would probably be fun to beat the shit out of yourself. Yes. There's plenty of time.
It'd probably be fun to beat the shit out of yourself.
Yes.
If we're being honest.
Because you know that it's going to be a great fight.
You know that you could kick their ass.
You know that they could kick your ass.
But you have the jump bot.
She's a badass motherfucker right here at this point.
Yeah.
Do you think Nebula feels pain there doesn't seem like i don't think so
which i was like oh that was as bad as i thought it was gonna be is that like taking off a scab
yeah exactly and a very like you know the scabs that hurt yeah scabs are fun to pick i haven't
picked a scab in years i haven't really gotten they are i mean it's gross but it is fun to pick. I haven't picked a scab in years. I haven't really gotten a scab in years. I mean, it's gross, but it is fun to pick a scab.
It is fun to pick a scab.
Vormir, a terrible place that looks absolutely awesome.
Every time they cut to Vormir, it is a beautiful planet.
Shout out to the MCU for really always changing up their environments,
always changing up their planets. Star Wars struggles
sometimes with like,
hey, we're going to another sand planet because we don't know
what terrain we're going to go to.
To actually have so many distinct
different locations, different planets,
it's not an easy thing to do. That is a huge
gripe of mine with Star Wars. That's a great point. And the fact that
Marvel does such a good job with that.
Chill out, guys. I'm a ghost. What are you going to do to me?
An ancestor.com over here.
33%
20%
Still, I think about the first time I ever saw Infinity
War and they dropped that red skull on you and I was
like, Darth Maul!
Yeah.
Oh, my God!
What an idiot.
What a fucking idiot.
What an idiot.
I just thought we were getting wild.
This is Joey Diaz.
This is the tremendous Joey Diaz says, let's get fucking nuts.
Let's mix weight classes.
Let's mix everything.
Let's mix promotions.
Let's get fucking crazy.
Disney bought Star Wars, and now I'm here.
You just hear the Emperor laugh like the Rise of Skywalker trailer.
It's like, yeah, he's here.
He's here too.
The change in weather just because of the altitude is wild.
But again, I guess it's the effect.
Yeah, it starts snowing up there, bro.
Such an add-on for Hawkeye to have the swords.
Yes.
Instead of just the crossbow.
And I love the crossbow.
I think bow and arrow type things.
I always said that would be like, if I was in Game of Thrones, I would want to be one of those guys.
I love the bow and arrow.
I like being a bow and arrow guy in a video game.
Oh, yeah. Awesome shit. Thrones I would want to be one of those guys I love the bow and arrow I like being a bow and arrow guy in like a video game you know yeah awesome shit Trent says he would want a broad sword but I always said broad sword would be way too heavy for my arms I love Trent he's not a
broad sword guy don't tell him I said that well Trent actually said he wouldn't want to use the
broad sword oh I never want to use it he said I would want it to just take out of the holster for
a little bit you show the blade and you give the people the look like,
really? You want to do this? Because I got a sword in here.
And then you just put it back.
And they're like, little do they know, he could never do the whole...
I know, yeah.
Just fly out of his hand.
Whatever it takes.
That's the moment she decided right there.
She's like, that's the hashtag on Twitter.
Yeah.
We have to...
It's got a little emoji
next to it and everything.
And this line of dialogue
between these two
describes their entire relationship
and both of their characters.
It's brilliant.
Listen to this.
I guess we both know
what it's going to be.
I guess we do.
I'm sweating out of that mountain. I'm sweating it out. We're all nothing.
I don't judge people on their worst mistakes.
You never did.
Black Widow confirmed
not an internet commenter.
Definitely not.
Definitely not.
She's not pulling up
any quotes that Dave made
about size 6 skinny jeans
years ago.
She ain't doing
any of that shit.
They just seem like
good people.
Go grab a beer with them,
you know?
Yeah.
Which is part of the reason
why I disagreed with Iron Man
on the whole
Sokovia Accords thing.
Where it's like you want it to become a government run facility.
That takes away the personable thing.
You know, you make a government organization.
It's a whole thing, Clem.
Yep, that's true.
If half of the universe dies, then half the universe dies.
Boom!
Brutal takedown.
This scene is so fucking good.
It goes so back and forth so many times too.
I thought it was over right here.
And I don't know if I've ever seen where two people are trying to kill themselves instead of the other person.
It was just such an original thing.
And another, like, boom, explosive arrow sends a reeling.
Some people I saw, they were like, it was a bit much, in the words of Rocket Raccoon.
How many times they went back and forth, I was all for it.
The running makes me laugh.
Bro, it was a wrestling match for me.
It was False Finish City. Yes running makes me laugh. Bro, it was a wrestling match for me. It was False Finish City.
Yes, False Finish City.
Boom.
Straight out of Batman.
He's like, you got me.
And in her last moments, you know, she is kind of like the stronger Avenger among the two.
Yeah.
She was able to do what she wanted to do more than he was.
It was Hawkeye, though.
That's all it is.
This face, man.
It's fucked up.
Oh, man.
Oh, shit.
It's harder for him than it is for her.
She's accepted the fate.
She's almost, like, happy. She's like, I won. I got what I needed. Now you guys have to finish me. than it is for her. She's accepted the fate. She's almost, like, happy.
She's like, I won.
I got what I needed.
Now you guys have to finish it.
Whatever it takes, yeah.
Goosebumps.
Did I tell you Sienna wants to be Black Widow next year?
Yeah, you told me.
And I'm like, Sienna, you keep choosing people that died in the MCU.
This is brutal.
Same exact soundtrack cue as Gamora.
Yep.
I love how they brought that back.
You see more blood, I feel like, with Black Widow.
And I think this song on the soundtrack is called The Soul Stone.
I think it's like The Soul Stone.
Yeah, I think so.
I love the...
You know what's coming next.
You flash and then you wake up with it.
We're getting wet.
Gross. That sounded grosser than you intended with... We're getting wet. Gross.
That sounded grosser than you intended it.
We're getting wet.
Getting wet.
Didn't know you liked to get wet.
Hawkeye, we're getting wet.
PCP homes.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
A noble sacrifice.
We salute you, Black Widow.
Also, I read up on her movie coming up.
David Harbour is apparently playing the Russian Captain America.
Really?
Like, I looked at pictures of his character from the comic books.
He looks like Captain America, but like a red suit.
And I think he's got a shield and everything.
Is that like a thing?
What's his name?
Captain Russia?
I don't think it's Captain Russia.
Comrade Russia?
But it's something like red. I think it's like the red comrade or some shit i don't know i like i want
to get sprinklings of x-men in every movie like omega red maybe somewhere out there that would
whoa what a pull from you oh yeah i'm an x-men guy oh my goodness i i would love for even just the
i get to go to the special part of the mom's basement after saying that, I feel. Even like what we talked about before with the Atlantis callback where it's like that might have been a shoutout.
I would love for like – there's been some weird like mutant activity in upstate New York.
Yes.
You know, like something cool like that I would love.
South Salem or whatever they say.
And like that's the only thing you have to say about it.
Say that in whatever and then do something in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness that seems like the perfect
you know bring him in there
do whatever you gotta do this is
this is fucked up it's just not
nice
it's still wet
still got that formier weird water
on him yeah
alright I feel bad for the old TexExposed joke now I really feel bad for the old takes exposed joke now.
I really feel bad for it.
You can't old takes expose her, bro.
You just can't do it.
All right.
I was wrong.
I wish I could go back and edit that out, but this is a commentary and it would throw the entire thing off.
You can't say that.
So do not say anything problematic afterwards.
No old takes exposing anyone else that dies in this movie. Well, you know
I'm not going to do it to my guy, so. Don't do it to
your guy. You can't say see you
in a minute, though, before you're going on a life
alternative. You just can't do it no matter how cute it
sounds. She makes a cute face, too.
I think that's a good mindset to have.
I think like, listen, we got
this. I'll see you in a minute. We got it.
The other side of it is if they came back in a minute,
it's kind of like with Thor. He's like i should have said i went for that side totally
totally no one loves a good quit more than me and also it's one of those like see you next year when
it's december 31st like see you next year people the facts people still say that like as adults
but i mean when it when you said as a kid it landed every single time oh yeah oh yeah you
know who really likes that one is tommokes. Oh, yeah. Tommy Smokes is into that kind of thing.
I think he said that well into February.
Yeah.
The Hulk has a great bench throw coming up here.
Yes.
A Matt Bauer type throw into the outfield.
Is that his name?
What was that guy's name?
The pitcher.
Trevor Bauer.
Trevor Bauer.
Look at you throwing this.
You're the one sporting those.
I was trying.
I tried.
I hit a Matt Bauer.
I like that.
Whoop. We never see it land, right?
No.
Way far away.
Way into the woods.
Killed some poor bunny.
An actual rabbit.
Again, Rocket's dead.
So this is also a callback to his father like arranging i think the super
serum was the exact camera angle and everything i saw another callback to that every single thing
like was so thought out in this movie it's crazy it's absolutely crazy and at this point in the
movie it's like oh my god they built a fucking Iron Man glove.
I forgot he did that.
It's such a great... He's so fucking good at that.
He just breaks the tension.
Now, we didn't see the Iron Gauntlet before.
They kept all the toys under wraps, which is good.
All under wraps.
It's a gigantic spoiler.
100% under wraps.
That's one of the best cap suits he's wearing there, too.
Thor's wearing just the big guy.
As a big guy, I know all the things that are comfortable.
The layers.
They're a little bigger.
Yep, the layers.
The dark colors so you can't see the sweat.
Yep.
Or like the stains you got from eating.
Yep.
Spilled a little sauce on you.
A little teriyaki sauce. I can't wear white shirts. I just can't do it. I don Or like the stains you got from eating. Yep. Spilled a little sauce on you. A little teriyaki sauce.
I can't wear white shirts.
I just can't do it.
I don't like wearing white shirts either, though.
I don't think that's just a big guy thing.
It's a big guy thing.
I think that's a regular people in the summer thing.
We have a lot of surface area that stuff can fall on, too.
True, yeah.
So it's like we have a problem.
Unnecessary, unnecessary shot.
That's a ricochet shot.
It's like eighth fat joke you a ricochet shot Not right now
I do like that Hulk got to do this
I was thinking about who gets to do what
And it's like he didn't get to kill Thanos
But he did get to bring everyone back
So it's like he lost people that he really loved
And also it
Does the thing where it's like he didn't get to bring Natasha back.
He tried, but he couldn't do it.
So you excuse that where it's like, why couldn't they just snap her back?
Well, because we explain it here.
Who would try to get her back more than anyone?
It's the Hulk.
You can make a case that the two guys who fucked up the most in Infinity War was Thor by not going for the head, which, hey, we all make mistakes.
Yep.
And like Hulk just didn't show up for the entire.
He got fucking Thanos, put him in his place.
Not showing up is
real tough. That's a tough look.
Look how tiny that looks in his arm.
It's like Andre the Giant with the beer can.
Yes!
Just bringing him back.
And we are now, if you look at your little ticker or whatever,
literally hitting the two-hour mark right now.
So it really is so split up.
Now the whole final battle is the final hour of the movie.
It's amazing the way they did it.
Did you notice that?
Did you just time it on your own? No, I timed it in the theater. Wow. That's right final battle is the final hour of the movie. It's amazing the way they did it. Did you notice that? Did you just time it on your own?
No, I timed it in the theater. Wow.
That's right, yeah, the theater.
That was the final,
I hate to be sentimental here, and this is a sad thing to say, but that was the final Iron Man
suit up we saw there as well.
That's fucked up.
I love the way this expands, too. It's so cool.
Yeah, it's so dope.
You know Tony built it like that because he's
like yeah i'm gonna give it to hulk like that motherfucker big dumb asshole put it on at the
same time he should have had some kind of lock feature on it where right after this he could
have got it back to his size and then thomas couldn't put it on then oh yeah he didn't have
another gauntlet i hate to be out thinking tony stark. You know, hindsight's 20-20.
That is going to be a dirty meme.
Like me when I beat my meat for the fourth time
in my life.
I said the crystal clear gifs and
videos we're going to get from this is going to make me
so happy. I know.
This is bananas.
The whole ship comes through.
Like, it doesn't even register in my brain
that that just happens. And they can't hear shit because they're
under the blast thing and this is all going on.
You know, probably the most
tight blast doors in existence.
And another snap.
And there it is.
Fries his arm up, too.
I love that Clint kicks it.
I've always loved that.
He's like, what the fuck is that thing?
Gives it a big kick.
I love Tony has to fucking extinguish his shit on.
Do you think he ever loaded it up with some Coca-Cola or something?
Throw some shit in there, like some Riptide Rush.
What's your favorite Gatorade?
My favorite Gatorade?
Green.
Lemon Lime.
Lemon Lime.
God damn it.
You're a green guy.
That's right.
You came in.
We'll let that one slide.
Green is definitely my favorite.
It's green.
It's green.
If you put it in Photoshop and look at where it falls on the color spectrum, it is green.
You've lost the battle on the blog.
This was also a nice subtle thing.
Just the birds chirping is like an immediate, even before Clint gets the phone call, you're like, I think it worked.
Yeah.
And like, oh, now it's happier because there's twice as much life there.
Someone said, how does that chick's phone work?
Like who is paying her phone bill all this time?
Oh, my God.
Wow.
I don't mean to, again, pick a part, you know.
But there are people in the world that call that like like, a plot hole and get upset about it.
And it's like, come on.
Like, we're watching a superhero movie where the fucking Hulk just snapped, like, the universe back into existence.
You can't accept that.
And then the shit goes down.
Torched. I thought we were losing some people here. Yeah, me too. I've said that before. goes down.
Torched.
I thought we were losing some people here.
Yeah, me too.
I think you've said that before.
I thought some people were just going to be dead after that.
I was like, I am not ready for what's about to unfold.
Like, that has to be the end of it, because I'm not ready.
And then we just go straight into a battle.
It's un-fucking-real.
And this, like, look at a shot like that.
That's probably a thousand percent CGI entirely
you know none of that
actually exists in
that water is probably CGI
like it's just crazy
everything that went into this movie
and the fact that they go into like
the
like the base of everything you know
where you have like the rebar
the rebar sticking out
and all that kind of shit.
And the subtleties of the battle, or everything here, is very interesting, because it's like,
who chose, was it the writers that chose, all right, let's trap these three, and that's where we put him for the battle, and we're good until Ant-Man grows into Giant-Man. I'm sure they had that in mind, we want him to be we put him for the battle and we're good until ant-man grows
into giant man i'm sure they had that in mind we want him to be giant man for the battle now it's
like roadie it's like do they want him to be iron patriot for the battle are they like it'd be cool
if we called back to that suit or does that come later and the russo brothers are like wait what
if he got trapped with ant-man and then you know i'm always interested to see who maps all that
kind of stuff out because this is a battle scene where I would imagine a lot of it changes in production from what was in the script.
Because I'm sure the script had like 30 pages that said battle.
Yeah, it was battle.
That was a classic George Lucas thing that he would do for like, remember the big battle on Mustafar for episode three?
There's a behind the scenes clip where he's just like yeah the last like five page of the script
said they fight they fight and then we pick it up he's like i'll put that in someone else's hands i
don't know how to write a good fight fight scene yeah which maybe he should have gave it an attempt
because everyone loves that fight scene and i'm not here to disparage it but talk about a bit much
when they're like each on like a floating sentinel in lava, it's like, Jesus Christ, just have them fight at the top of a volcano, bro.
Yeah.
But I don't mean to trash that.
I do enjoy it overall.
It's a net positive.
A net positive, yeah.
Much like the Duel of Fates.
I think the Duel of Fates is a net positive, but I also think it's overrated in terms of there's so many spinning moves in that where I'm just like, well, Darth Maul could have killed him right there and Obi-Wan could have killed him right there.
It's flippy nonsense,
but if that's the kind of lightsaber battles you're into,
that's the kind of lightsaber battles you're into.
And the song bangs.
Totally.
The song is all time.
So now Thanos is here.
He's arrived.
He's on Earth.
So you might have seen this
because I told you to go on the Marvel Studios Reddit.
If you haven't, this will blow your mind.
The way Thanos sits and waits for the Avengers here is the exact same way Doctor Strange sits and waits for him.
Because he has gone forward into this scenario and Doctor Strange is being cocky on his home planet in Infinity War.
When they roll up on him, Doctor Strange is holding a rock in his right hand
and Thanos is doing the exact same thing.
I did not see that.
Doctor Strange has seen this entire thing
and with the faith in his mind
that they will be able to execute it,
is sitting that same way.
He's just like, I'm going to be cocky about this.
Amazing.
Amazing. I also wonder about, you know, for the three of them, for Thanos, Gamora, and Nebula, how much of a challenge it was for the actors to play, like, a different version.
Like, it has to be noticeably different.
But also stay true to that character.
You have to think your Guardians won.
Because we got, you stuff, but for the most part, these are the three that we see the most of their past selves.
Where it's like, yeah, you have to do basically like, what was I like in Guardians 1?
Yeah.
Like, let me take away all of the character development that I've added on through my acting and start from the beginning again.
It had to be tough.
I'd be interested, like, if I ever got the chance to interview one of them, that would be a question I would love to ask.
That's a great question.
Saving the day again, my guy.
All right.
All right.
All right.
The saving the day.
I don't know.
He's about to save the day.
He's about to.
Thor just chilling.
I know.
And Thanos just has to be like, what the fuck is he wearing?
And before we see this scene, I'm like, we probably have another 10, 15 minutes before
we actually get Thanos to do shit, right?
And it's like, oh, no, it's coming now.
No, the battle is going to last like 45 minutes, actually.
So the same way Doctor Strange is waiting, just like that.
With the rock.
Yes.
The amount of people that are going to pick apart the parallels, I cannot wait for.
I know.
What is the Marvel Studios?
Is the Reddit board?
Yes.
r slash Marvel Studios.
If you've never been there, if you've never been on Reddit or whatever, I don't know who hasn't at this point.
But if you're a Marvel fan, the people on that board really, really know their shit more than we even know our shit.
This is great.
And this is the moment where I really came to terms with Fat Thor.
Because I was like, okay, now he's just a fucking badass Viking.
He has this braided beard.
The hair looks amazing.
The armor looks cool.
He looks like his full Viking form.
And double weapon Thor. This was in the trailer I saw today.
They edited out Mjolnir.
Because of course we didn't know it was coming back.
We hoped it was coming back for the Captain America reason.
Which we're about to get to.
I can't wait.
Thor doubling up was a bit cocky.
Not cocky.
A bit greedy of him.
But I guess he didn't know if they could hold the other shit.
I would give them Stormbreaker.
Like, you guys used it together.
Figure it out.
You don't have to be worthy to hold Stormbreaker.
I was going to say you don't have to be worthy, right?
Only because of the spell that Odin put on it.
Right?
Yep.
Mjolnir.
Stormbreaker.
They just fucking made Stormbreaker's hand.
But who would he give it to?
Brute's arm.
Who would he give it to?
Iron Man?
Nah, you gotta give it to Cap, sorry.
Yeah, that's true.
Gotta give it to Cap.
Oh, he has a stupid shield.
Especially because when he says, I knew it, it's like he always, in the back of his mind,
he's like, I bet this guy's worthy.
I wish we got some more Thanos, you know, soliloquies.
I'm good with the amount we got, because we got so many in Infinity War.
Like, that was his movie.
I guess that was his movie.
I like that.
It was like, that was Thanos' movie.
This is the Avengers movie.
That's true.
You know what?
He had like...
And I always lean way more hero than villain.
Always have.
Always will.
Always have.
Big Rebel Alliance guy for life.
And like, he doesn't have the wisdom of Infinity War Thanos.
Correct.
You know?
He's just young, dumb, and full of cum right here.
Such an unnecessary thing to say right now before a big battle scene.
Kids might be listening to this, bro.
This is awesome.
Young, dumb, and full of fun.
Kids.
Yes.
And the heroes underground are in trouble.
We've got a drowning scenario on our hands.
Like, Rocket is just hopeless there.
Like, the terror in his eyes always fucks me up.
The biggest, like, cocky asshole is like,
And he looks like a wet dog.
Like, I'm sure he smells like a raccoon.
Oh, you smell terrible.
Smells like a zoo.
Smells worse than Thor's eye.
Our fire escape at Barstool has, like sign at the end of it, and it kind of lights up
the hallway that leads to the fire escape, red like this, and every time we go out to
smoke, I think about that.
I'm always like, goddamn, I feel like Hawkeye right now.
You should take the gauntlet and just go downstairs.
Yeah, really, right?
We'll film a promo in the fire escape so people know what we're talking about with the gauntlet.
Right after this, we'll go out to the fire escape.
We'll film a little promo.
Building security.
This is the fourth time this week.
I feel so bad for him in this moment every single time because he goes, oh, hey, I know you.
And just gives it to her.
And it's like, oh, man, you really did a good job.
You did the best you could, but you blew it in that moment, Clint.
You really did. It's like, oh, Clint. I don't job. You did the best you could, but you blew it in that one. Clint, you really did.
It's like, oh, Clint, no.
You're Hawkeye again.
I don't know how you would know, but you just got to know.
You just got to know.
Luckily, Gamora and Nebula from the future are here to save the day.
We think they were just, like, stalking her from behind.
Like, I was trying to figure out how this all happens.
They just kind of were there.
They had to just run down, I guess.
Maybe Nebula is still linked to her in some way some kind of gps tracking yeah they showed you know the pin in her glitching or
something yeah i watched my the most recent time i watched the chinese bootleg of endgame that we've
been just talking about the whole show i just started it at this moment because trent said to
me he's like can we just put on and trent isn't the kind of person who usually says he goes can we just put on that
scene where captain america gets the hammer that was fucking awesome and i was like do you want to
watch the whole final battle he's like yeah because he hasn't seen it since you know opening night
he's not the kind of guy who goes back and watches yeah yeah shit like this he's not super into it
oh there you go past nebula rnp and she just dead. It's like the quickest death you'll see for a pretty big character, right?
Yeah.
And I also love the time travel rules of like, you killed her there and future Nebula's not
going to die because she died in the past.
It's like, no, fuck it.
Future Nebula's fine.
Big power move there.
That's a bit of a callback to Avengers 1 when Thor and Captain – when Thor and Iron Man fight for the first time, he accidentally overpowers Iron Man's suit in Iron Man's favor.
So for them to be using that power together, pretty awesome.
Awesome cartwheel kick from Captain America there.
There goes the Thanos copter blade Which again I was a little underwhelmed with
As a
As a weapon
But then when it shatters the shield
Here we go by the way
Summoning Stormbreaker
Cut off
And Thanos tries to
Hit a little poetic justice
I guess on his side
You didn't even see the movie.
You're fucking recreating that scene.
Goosebumps.
I mean, Goosebumps City.
Mjolnir comes back into the hands of my guy, Steve Rogers.
Come on!
Come on, if that's not the greatest thing I've ever seen in my entire life, I don't know what is.
Thor hits him with an I knew it.
And then here comes, watch this uppercut.
Ladies and gentlemen, the greatest uppercut in the history of combat sports.
Boom.
See ya.
Fucking hits him with the shield.
And then he actually throws the hammer.
Boom.
Into the shield.
Ricochet shot.
Literal ricochet shot.
And then he uses the power of the shield and the hammer together
there. Boom. Summon
some lightning, because you do get the full power of Thor.
Summoning lightning your first time with the hammer is
incredible. I know. Even with the
instruction manual, he just fucking figured it out.
Because if you're worthy, you're good.
Yeah, it's gotta be just
instantly in your knowledge
once you pick up that hammer, I guess.
Breaks that helmet off like a savage.
Ouch.
Thanos going no helmet here
feels like a modern-day baseball player
going no batting gloves.
What are you doing?
What are you doing, Jorge Posada?
I'm trying to impress.
He's going ham on that shield.
What is his
copter blade made out of
just Thanos shit
yeah gotta be material as strong
as vibranium right yeah
unreal
and it appears to be Captain
America's last stand here
very much seemed like in the trailer
and in the movie that this would be the big sacrifice.
Some would say that it should have been the way to go.
Some would say
the movie's fine as it is.
This is... We should listen to
this Thanos monologue because this is the best.
Chilling.
What I'm about to do to you Stubborn
Annoying
And enjoy it
Cause he had said that uh
It wasn't personal before
It's just his vendetta
But now
It is
He's gonna enjoy it so
Me and the boys.
There's the whole army. And a lot of people have said, how could he get
the whole army there with the amount of pimp articles?
This, that, the next thing. My
headcanon excuse for that is
he gave a pimp article to Ebony Maw and he
fucking figured it out. Yep.
Ebony Maw is basically Tony Stark.
Totally. He's a wizard.
With magic. He's an alien wizard. Come on.
Captain America understands here that it's going to be him against an entire army full of people.
And he still says, fuck it.
Let's do it.
As long as one man stands up, you'll never secure victory.
Look at that gash, bro.
Look at the gash on his arm.
Disgusting.
And here is one of my favorite shots in the entire movie,
if not my favorite shot in the movie itself,
where it cuts behind Captain America,
a very Luke Skywalker right here,
a very Luke Skywalker on crate visual,
which is my favorite shot in that movie as well. I think I just got a thing for my favorite hero standing up to armies.
Oh, and the earpiece here.
What's that?
It's Sam.
On your left.
Goosebumps
every single time.
Every single time
the first portal opens and out walks king t'challa i perfect
first person to walk through that portal and just give him that fucking nod it's like it's
it's such a i don't even know how to describe the reaction on his face it's almost a respectful
at the same way like thank you and let's do this let's fucking go like i somehow forgot all of our
favorite superheroes were snapped back into existence and i was like oh yeah they're all
back now they're all back just they do make you forget they do make you forget look at thanos
look at thanos that little bitch let's go just what the fuck is going on drax the destroyer
ready to destroy back fucking star lord dr strange responsible for all of it in some way, shape, or form,
and Peter fucking Parker.
Such a teenager thing to do.
All right, Pete, we know you can fucking fly around.
E-bombay!
E-bombay!
E-bombay!
Amazing, amazing.
This is the greatest moment in movie history right here.
The song's perfect, too.
Winter Soldier, Korg, Groot, Scarlet Witch, Valkyrie, Wong,
fucking everyone in the MCU is back.
The Wasp, Howard the Duck was in the background of that shot.
I swear he was.
You could go back and check it out for yourself if you want to see.
And Rescue's here.
Why is she here? Who told her
to come? Who knows? Who cares? It
doesn't matter.
There's Giant Man.
Out of his hand comes the Hulk,
Iron Patriot,
Rocket Raccoon. Hell of a shot
of the three of them.
Ah, he cocks the weapon. I love it.
Oh boy.
The music builds here. I love it. Oh boy. The music builds
here, rightfully so,
to the moment we've all been waiting for.
I've seen this scene
in front of a Chinese movie theater so many times.
Yeah.
Yeah!
This shot right here is legitimately
straight out of a comic book.
More so than any shot
I've ever seen in any movie
that has ever come out.
The Avengers running towards this army
all lined up.
You know, the people that fly on the top.
The people that swing from a web swinging from a web on top.
What is Peter Parker swinging from?
I have no idea.
Yeah, that's a great question.
Just think of people he's above.
That's what I try to figure out.
One of those ships.
Who cares?
I'm going to watch this so many times figuring out all the fights going on.
This is so fucking awesome.
Huge, huge, huge left hook from Ant-Man.
It's so much clearer
in HD. With the stabby actions from
Guardians 2, the intro there,
and the back-to-back scene from
Husband and Wife, maybe, if they got married.
If they got married. From Lovers, at least.
Great line from Thor.
You take the little one. Living in sin, whatever.
I get the little one.
Great line. I actually didn't hear that the first three times I saw it,
because the theater was still cheering from the Avengers assemble scene.
Oh, yeah.
The reactions when you see Black Panther and everything.
And from here on, the tears were flowing.
From here on.
This was the moment that really set me off.
The reunion and the hug more than anything you realize how much they needed to hit that with that reboot because if that
was like oh I know now if it wasn't Tom Holland like somehow with you know
spider-man was some would say botched with Andrew Garfield.
I would probably say the same.
If they don't revive that, that's like Tony Stark's biggest thing towards the end of his entire character arc is that he's kind of the father figure for Peter Parker.
They would have had to pivot to something else.
And it turns into he became a great father of his own.
It's crazy how well that was done.
And the fact that he gives him that hug that
he didn't get at the beginning of homecoming when he tried to give him the hug and he was like oh
this isn't we're not there yet when he finally gives him that hug everything was just they tied
up every single loose end they could have tied up in this movie and then we get this too which
isn't and then again it's she goes back to 2014 for. Straight back to the starting point.
Got to bowl the second time.
The fact they can still have a moment like this in the middle of the greatest battles you've ever had is incredible.
A very funny break in the tension.
And shout out to Black Panther. I mean hawkeye's you know holding down
the fort here but black panther is the real running back of the avengers with this fucking
gauntlet he goes saquon with it definitely and i love another full circle tying up loose ends
moment he calls hawkeye clint and he says it like clint give it to me and it was he said in Civil War when he
said hey I'm Clint he said I don't care
just another moment that
breaks attention is this is like a garage
yes
phenomenal
I think grew I think I just saw Groot in the background of that shot of these two I gotta rewatch Yes. Phenomenal.
I think I just saw Groot in the background of that shot of these two.
I gotta rewind.
Again, it's like the special effects shots are so detailed.
I'm sure it was fun for them to hide shit, knowing people are going to discover it only when the movie comes out. Doctor Strange, huge no spoilers guy
Don't spoil the endgame
At this point though
I mean, if you haven't seen it
We have spoiled the endgame for you
Yeah, they spoiled the trailers basically
And we didn't give a spoiler warning for this podcast
If you think we had to, fuck you
If you didn't give a spoiler warning for this podcast. If you think we had to, fuck you.
You didn't see this in the theaters.
Congratulations on making it out of the coma.
Yeah, congratulations on being the one.
Here it is.
Give it to me.
Chadwick Boseman's the fucking man.
Look at that.
I mean, we could Berman out and put this thing out too.
Whoop!
The fucking copter.
This is the first time I thought we were going to see Black Panther and Thanos get to fight.
We don't get that.
They take it away for something even more satisfying.
Fucking Scarlet Witch.
Baddest bitch in the game.
And her accent sort of came back in this scene. Did you notice that?
She got real mad.
Mad enough for that accent to come back.
Maybe it was when she just,
just the fact that
she was re-snapped,
she forgot how to talk
with her Elizabeth Olsen voice.
People's accents came back?
Yeah.
Madonna's British accent
came back if she got snapped.
I like to think
when she's either drunk or angry,
she has her accent.
Totally.
Especially when she drinks vodka,
it's like,
oh,
yeah.
And then in terms of surreal scenes, when Iron Man was released in 2008, I never in a billion years could have predicted that we would see, eventually, Spider-Man with the Infinity Gauntlet.
But an Infinity Gauntlet made out of Tony Stark nanotech material swinging through a final battle scene and being lifted up on
top of Pegasus.
It's incredible.
I mean, some of the most intricate shit in the world.
And then this is insane as well.
The fact that Scarlet Witch has the power to just rip Thanos' armor off his body.
And he went, no regard for anything.
No regard for strategy here.
No regard for his army.
Pure panic
decision from Thanos. A desperation
takedown, they would call it, in MMA.
Yeah, because this
really just kind of just puts him in the end
game now, too. And all the Doctor Strange
wizards obviously have these great shields.
So they're umbrellaing the entire
Avengers squad.
Here's how you keep Doctor Strange
busy for the rest of the battle.
Another thing that I'm like,
was this in the script?
Was it like,
Doctor Strange,
you know,
makes sure water
doesn't get in?
Or,
is that,
hey,
we need something
for him to do.
Yeah,
just to keep him occupied.
Here you go,
this is that surreal moment
that I just mentioned.
I love that.
That Captain America through connection too.
Hey, Queens.
I wonder if that was the first meeting of Pepper Potts and Peter Parker.
No, it couldn't have been, right?
Because she was at the end of Homecoming.
No, he had left by the time she came out.
Yeah, I don't know.
Could have been.
That was like I met Mrs. Clem for the first time at Puff Pumps.
Yes, you did.
That's kind of a similar dynamic, eh?
Yes.
And here's where our guy Rocket Raccoon jumps right over Groot.
He's like, I'm not losing you again, buddy.
Beautiful.
And it was now that I remembered Captain Marvel when the ships do that to her in that movie.
And I was like, oh, shit.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Now Thanos is really in the endgame, and we're going to win this thing.
How do you think she knew to show up?
I think it was just good timing.
I think she had shit to do, and by the time she got back to Earth, she was like, oh, God, okay, good.
I made it in the middle of the way through Shawshank.
Yeah, that's a good way to put it.
Everyone probably got snapped back, and she's like, oh, shit's going down on Earth right now if it's bad. Maybe, yeah, yeah, true, true, true.
She probably had some sort of Nick Fury signaler of some sort that let her know people were
back.
Bitch, you got to get to the Avengers base.
Yeah.
That's my Nick Fury.
That's pretty good.
That's pretty good, right?
Pretty good.
And then, so the original plan, I guess, is just to get the stones back to where they came from and then defeat Thanos on their own without any sacrifices?
Yeah.
Is that what we're getting from that?
That's a hell of a plan, but hey, it's like kind of just, there is no plan.
Yeah.
And Thanos just shows up out of the blue.
This is the old dad of the daughter in me Who loves this scene
People roll their eyes
But fuck
I love this scene
I get goosebumps every time
Hey
We're playing
Ultimate Alliance 3 or whatever
And she just gets to be Black Widow
All these different girl characters
And I'm like
Yeah you should get to be a fucking girl
I wouldn't want to be a girl as a guy
It's probably super lame for me to say
But like shit like that Just makes me happy about the world we're living't want to be a girl as a guy. It's probably super lame for me to say, but shit like that just
makes me happy about the world we're living in.
Like a guy with a niece.
That's a fucking awesome scene for little girls to see.
That is awesome.
To just see them dominate too,
not just be some lame fucking...
I mean, that's like
a Super Mario speed run from
Captain Marvel. What the fuck?
Having one of your characters be a cheat code, too, it's pretty nice.
It completely is a cheat code.
Thanos is like, what the fuck?
Where did you come from?
I signed up to battle 12 Avengers.
And he loses the goddamn copter blade on that.
But hey, he had to do it, right?
Yeah, he had to do that.
And what a perfect throw, too.
I feel like I'm an analogy machine right now.
That's the Frisbee into the slot in Can Jam.
Nice.
And a great fight right here, trying to keep that gauntlet out of Thanos' hands.
He hits Captain America with a punch on the ground, a ground and pound shot, as we would say,
that I honestly in the theater thought might have
killed Captain America. I don't know how
it didn't. It's coming up right here.
I'm surprised we didn't just get a straight, like,
Thanos kills someone with just pure
force at all. Right here, watch this punch
on the ground. I mean, what the fuck?
Nice landing on the back of the knee there.
Would've never thought about that.
That's that next level hand-to-hand combat training that they give you in...
What's it?
CreeSchool?
ScrollSchool?
CreeSchool.
CreeSchool.
That's pretty good.
Like, CreeSchool?
Good luck.
I don't hate that.
That might be a new segment.
CreeSchool.
Like when we explain nerd things.
I like that.
Not bad.
Not bad.
Headbutt does nothing. Does nothing. Does nothing. Donbutt a samoan i still can't i still can't believe when he got that whole um
when he gets a glove and you're like what the fuck there's so many times this movie just misdirects
you things you never thought you'd see yeah and then we see this right here this is a moment where
steven strange has got to be like oh fuck we fuck. We're fucking. This is it. This is it.
We're in the one.
Now, do you think in the moment, in the scenario that he looked into the future and saw this future that he saw, did he see himself give the one?
Yes.
Had to, right?
Unless, again, there's two scenarios where one where he dies.
He's like, oh, fuck that.
And this is where the transfer had to happen.
Everyone always says, how did Tony get the stones?
No, you could see him.
See?
He's holding on to it. They literally do the transfer. He must hit the button. There's like, oh, fuck that. And this is where the transfer had to happen. Everyone always says, how did Tony get the stones? No, you can see him. See? He's holding onto it.
They literally do the transfer. He must hit the button.
There's like an eject button.
Look how cocky he is here, too.
I watched that on the show. He hits the fucking line, too.
Ah!
Oh, you idiot!
You idiot! You were so cocky!
You thought you were actually gonna do it twice! You fucking idiot.
Uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh. You can't do it twice uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
you can't do it twice I don't know how he got the
stones that's the one thing cause he would have had to reach over
I actually started to clap
for Thanos' death it's a weird tonal
death you know the other one is a jarring
shocking cut off the head moment
and this one is a is like a fade
away it's
it's a weird clap moment
but I decided Thanos can't die without a clap in this movie.
As a team hero guy at all times, I'm happy you got that clap.
Yeah. And everyone in our group thought it was cool that the whole sold out IMAX theater
followed because as soon as I saw him fade, and I just...
And at that point, I was in complete supernova overdrive mode from seeing my guy get the hammer, from seeing Tony Stark obviously make a sacrifice, from seeing Spider-Man, from seeing everyone come through those portals.
The whole portal scene, yeah.
Complete sensory overload.
The fact his last words are the same as his last words in Iron Man 1 is so cool too.
So cool.
And he gets this moment with all the people.
He gets it with Rhodey,
he gets it with Peter,
and he gets it with Pepper.
All of his, you know,
his kind of Marvel family.
The only one missing being Happy,
but Happy gets his moment a little later on.
Yeah, Happy would have felt weird
if they had brought him in.
It would have been real weird.
He shouldn't have been there.
The trembling in his voice is heartbreaking.
Heartbreaking.
Pepper has to pull him off.
Oh. I didn't realize you said hey, Pep.
Yeah.
I never realized that.
We're losing Bob right now.
The only thing he could muster up was, hey, Pep.
And she says, we're going to be fine, talking about the family.
And she says, you can rest now, because this is the first time in his entire life that he's rested.
A beautiful little girl at home.
And Hollywood always suffers from the same thing.
They suffer from cheesy deaths, right?
They always have the... Everyone, tongue out.
What they did here is so fucking brilliant.
Just the symbolic light going out.
It is beautiful.
Fucking beautiful. brilliant just the symbolic light going out no it is beautiful beautiful
and one last look at our guy well not really because he has a
a hologram about to play but
the second tier avengers are very sad about this. Third tier, fourth tier.
But the first tier, he's gone now.
The only first tier Avenger.
All right, there are multiple first tier Avengers.
You just saw two other ones.
The fact that guy sacrificed himself in the first Avengers 2 and goes into space.
I know.
How does Tony start the guy to keep sacrificing himself?
And I'll say it in this tender moment proving captain america wrong captain america said you
will not be the guy to make the sacrifice he said those words word for a word and you know what he
fucking was all exposed and tony stark told captain america you're nothing more than a lab
experiment and he proved in this movie that's not true either he got the life tony got the
sacrifice you know they both kind of like changed and got took a little from each other they got a
little selfish someone tweeted to us tony learned how to become a hero and steve rogers learned how
to give up being a hero yeah awesome our guy ned love ned huge fan love to see him back ned you're
about to get a girlfriend oh you, you know, spoiler alert.
Can't be spoiled.
Don't spoil it for Ned.
Yeah, what if he hears it?
This is what really got me in the theater.
I'll say that.
Starting right here, this speech that Tony Stark gives.
Yep.
This is what got me.
The score, seeing Wakanda, you know, basically restored after this.
That's what got me.
I got a little Jedi vibes from this.
Totally.
Yeah.
With the fireworks and...
Especially like the special edition one.
Right here.
When they show like Coruscant.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's bittersweet, you know?
We get the happy ending,
but we lose Tony Stark.
But it's the perfect ending for that character.
It's the greatest character arc in movie history for me.
It really is.
Going from the most self-centered, egotistical, billionaire playboy
to the man that saves the entire universe making a sacrifice,
nothing gets better.
With everything to lose.
Yes.
And Robert Downey Jr. as that character,
as good a portrayal of a specific character
as anyone will ever do, has ever done.
It's on another level because he turned a character
that no one gave a shit about, basically,
and turned him into the centerpiece of the greatest.
It's one of those I can never imagine anyone else playing Iron Man.
Can never, ever, ever imagine it.
Imagine it.
Again, I say as bad as it is to say like if Robert Downey Jr. doesn't fall in the hard times and he needs to kind of like re-image himself.
Oh, totally.
And you know what I read about?
I actually read something about this and I assume this is true.
I read it on the internet though so I guess take it with a grain of salt.
That Robert Downey Jr., when he signed up for Iron Man, was still considered a bit of a risk by the studio.
So instead of paying him, I guess, major star fees, he was paid like a flat rate and then a percentage of box office.
And he made a fuckton of money off the percentage of box office he made.
It's kind of like, what's his name with jack sparrow oh yeah uh johnny depp johnny depp
and now we saw the deleted scene of all the avengers kind of taking a knee around tony
stark after he dies if you haven't seen that it's on the bonus features here and you can see it
online i thought it came off a little cheesy, a little ham-fisted.
And I think this scene of, you know, it was the same feel where they kind of wanted to show you that, hey, look what this guy brought us.
From a meta point of view, that's what this really is.
It's, hey, look at all these characters that you love.
It was all thanks to Tony Stark, and here's them paying thanks to him.
I think this is a much more beautiful way to do it.
I agree.
And I think we said it in our post-pod time it very it's a comic book picture you just see every they
always had the guys everyone had the suits and they'd all look it's an entire splash page or
you know it's a couple pages every single cover yes absolutely definitely a cover
my man groot yeah some of these people probably like I don't even know who Tony Stark was.
Groot's like, what are we talking about?
Hawkeye's like, this is bullshit.
I was in Avenger.
I should be closer.
But...
Yeah, he got the shaft because he's got the whole family there.
Yep.
And then the kid who threw everyone off who was from Iron Man 3.
He did throw everyone off.
I wonder if in hindsight they were like, I wish we didn't put him there just so we can stop getting the tweets.
Yeah.
And then this was such a cool moment to have Nick Fury really walk out, you know, from off camera.
Yep.
Hit that final music cue.
This is a beautiful instrument, whatever it is.
They play it there. Oh yeah.
It's like a little mandolin or something.
Maybe mixed with a harp.
Casey plays the harp. Did you know that? Did she really?
Not the most bougie shit you've ever heard.
She said she grew up in a house with like two harps in it.
Like, Jesus Christ.
We said we want her to play a harp on the next pop punk song.
Add a little harp in there.
If you have two harps, it means you had at least five garages in your house.
Oh, definitely.
Two harps?
Come on.
It's like a ratio thing.
It's probably like required.
If you have three, you got to add another garage just for the state.
Little shout out to Natasha and Vision here.
They said, I wish there was a way for them to know.
And he says, we know.
Do you think, someone said, I think that's a little towards Quicksilver.
I don't think so.
No, no, no.
It's not Quicksilver anymore.
It's got to be Vision.
Here's the scene that murdered everyone as if we weren't murdered already,
where Tony Stark's daughter is requesting cheeseburgers from Happy Hogan.
And another shout out to that man right there, Jon Favreau.
Without him, this movie doesn't happen.
Without him, make an Iron Man.
All this doesn't happen. Which still holds up as one of the best superhero movies ever made.
That hair, man.
That hair looks dirty as fuck.
Looks like he just got out of the sea or something.
That's the one thing.
He doesn't get all his Eskart.
All the Eskartians are dead still.
So that's kind of sad.
He did as good a job as he can.
You know, with the comeback, at least he got his boys, you know?
Yeah.
Korg and Meek, like, that's huge.
Being able to save them.
And maybe he'll meet up with Loki.
There's a version of Loki out there somewhere, drifting.
He's such a more interesting character than he was in the first Thor.
Oh, my God.
It's night and day.
It's hard to even compare them.
If you told me, it's like they changed actors, basically.
It's so different.
Yeah, I mean, they used to dye his eyebrows, to be fair.
That was a weird move and i love that the end is very much uh everyone's passing the torch thor's passing it
on to valkyrie she's the new king of asgard and we found out that uh at comic-con that she'll be
finding her queen and we have in a little bit the shield being passed on from captain america to uh sam wilson
awesome next generation shit
setting up the future of the mcu and this dynamic is just amazing so i'm curious as to whether or
not thor will be in guardians 3 or the Guardians will be in Thor Love and Thunder.
Oh, I didn't think about that.
Originally, right after this, everyone said, oh, it's got to be Guardians 3.
You know, they'll do Asgardians of the Galaxy.
And that was originally supposed to be made in Phase 4,
and I don't think it's going to be anymore because James Gunn wants to finish Suicide Squad first.
So it's like, I think Thor's first.
So it would make the most sense to really just put them in there.
I'm not sure, though. Yeah, it's going to be hard to just be like, oh think Thor's first, so it would make the most sense to really just put them in there. I'm not sure, though.
Yeah, it's going to be hard
to just be like,
oh, here's a Thor movie.
Oh, and by the way...
As soon as they announced Thor 4,
I figured that they probably
wouldn't do an Asgardians
of the Galaxy movie,
that there would just be
a little feature.
I would love for them
to at least, though,
give us 10, 20 minutes
of them together.
Because I don't think
we were getting...
Especially Star-Lord and Thor.
I want to see those two together. I don't think we were getting more than that in the Guardians movie anyway
so it's like you're not really ruining the Guardians movie
you're just moving it to another thing
a guy that fucking handsome that good at acting that good at being thor he shouldn't have
the comedic chops that he shouldn't it's not it's not fucking fair chris hemsworth is a fucking
perfect guy and by all accounts the nicest guy on the planet just the nicest guy on the planet
kevin smith told a story at comic-con at his panel of reaching out to Chris Hemsworth because Chris Hemsworth had said something about Kevin Smith.
He actually credits Thor's entire change to Kevin Smith.
He's like, I think people got tired of it.
Kevin Smith said he was tired of it.
And we wanted to change it because he speaks for all the nerds.
Kevin Smith never said that.
His co-host said that.
Kevin Smith is like, I'm positive about Thor.
I swear I'm positive about everything.
But Kevin Smith reached out to him because
he was like at least he knows who I am so he's
like hey would you want to do a quick thing in Jane Silent Bob
reboot and he said he showed up and it
was like two weekends before endgame
so he's the busiest man on the
planet doing marketing and shit and he
said hey man we'll get you in and out real quick 20
minutes like I swear this won't take long it was a thing
in front of a green screen he said
and he was like dude take your time I was looking forward to this more than i was looking forward to
anything all weekend he's like i'm a huge kevin smith fan i love your work take as much time as
you want so kevin smith is already flattered enough by that and he as he's leaving he says
all right i'll see you at the premiere kevin smith is like why would you see me at the premiere he's
like they don't invite you to these things kevin smith is like no he's like okay come as my guest
and he fucking brought kevin sm Smith and his daughter as his guests.
What a guy.
What a guy.
I mean, the things I would do to that man.
Oh my God, I know.
I love him.
I know.
And off goes Captain America.
Bucky Barnes knows it.
He gave him a look right before he went off like,
you're not coming back, are you?
It's like when you know your boys.
It's a Goodwill hunting thing.
Yeah, exactly.
Matt Damon, he says,
I hope I knock on that door and you don't answer.
He's like, I want you to live the life that you want to live.
Sam Wilson, fucking guy that doesn't know him as well as Bucky Barnes,
is like, where is he? Get him back.
And he absolutely completely cucks the dude who married Peggy.
Completely cucks him.
Totally.
Totally.
If I was that guy, though, I'd be like, nah, I get it.
I would hope Peggy was just honest with me.
Like, listen, he just came from the future.
He's Captain America.
He just came from the future.
Save the world.
I'd be like, you know what?
I get it.
Save the world.
Save my ass.
I'm good with them.
That would be a great superhero, super villain origin story.
Someone that got caught by the snap.
Yes.
You could do that in the MCU now.
I feel like it's like you brought back her old wife, her old husband or whatever, you know?
I kind of like the way this is going bob maybe maybe that could be the villain for our what-if story of peter parker smoking mary jane you know what i mean
that's the villain sounds like there's a battle going on outside the podcast studio interesting thing about uh
the voice here no modulation no effects no nothing really This is Chris Evans doing an old guy's voice.
I never would have thought when I saw him.
And then obviously there's a mix of CGI
and prosthetic on his face.
It is him though, right? Yes. No, it's him, yeah.
I never thought when I saw him
in another team movie he had these kind of chops.
I know, right? Holy shit.
And what a shot there.
The shot from behind of him really grabbing the shield
and passing it. The cinematography in this movie is next level.
And this is one of my favorite performances in the whole movie.
Anthony Mackie realizing what's going on, looking back to Bucky for approval, like, are you okay with this?
Yeah, because he's like, I'm jumping over you.
Because I'm getting a little teary eyed.
This is like fucking incredible.
And I think about the real life aspects of it where Anthony Mackie was talking about like his son watching this.
He's like, my son watched me become Captain America.
He's like, do you realize how cool that is to be a dad where you just became Captain America in front of your son?
Now that I think about it.
Oh, this line, this line.
It isn't.
And the way he kind of
has to take a deep breath
and keep it together.
Oh.
I'll do my best.
It would have been fucked up
to give the shield
that Howard Stark made
for Captain America
to the guy that killed him.
Looking back now.
True.
So you know what?
It would have been real fucked up.
It would have been real fucked up. It would have been real fucked up. A lot of people wanted that to happen. You back now. True. So you know what? Would have been real fucked up. Would have been real fucked up.
Would have been real fucked up. A lot of people wanted that to happen.
You know why I didn't want it to happen?
Honestly, I didn't want Bucky Barnes to be Captain America
because I think he looks too cool. I think Bucky Barnes
is the coolest looking. He looks
like a rock star. That's why I think he looks cool.
He's got long hair and shit. But I was like,
don't cover up his hair with a Captain America
suit. Falcon, on the other hand,
is going to have the coolest Captain America suit of all time.
When it's fucking, he's got like the red, white, and blue goggles.
He's got red, white, and blue wings.
He's got the shield.
Oh, it's going to be awesome.
Seeing Bucky as Captain America would be like when Johnny Damon became a Yankee.
It just didn't feel right.
He was all clean shaven and clean cut, you know?
Jesus came to the Yankees.
I actually met him.
He was at the old office.
And I was in 2009.
I went to so many.
I went to like I went to probably double digit Yankee games.
I followed that team like I followed the Avengers.
That was they were my 2009 Avengers.
So he was in the barstool office last time.
And I didn't want to go up to him and be the fucking guy that says something.
So I went out for lunch. And as I was coming back in from lunch, Johnny Damon was holding
the door open for me and I did a double take and I was just like, dude, thank you for 2009.
And he's like, you got it.
And that was the only thing I said to him.
And it was awesome.
That's my go-to move if I ever see someone I meet that I ever want to say something to.
I very seldom do.
Never done it here.
But I always just say thank you for whatever role you did.
And my guy gets the happy ending.
I still wish there was an alternate ending where Thanos is in a wig.
I just thought it would be such a ridiculous twist.
What a beautiful movie.
What a beautiful ending.
Give it up.
Give it up.
Produced by Kevin Feige.
PGA.
What do you think PGA stands for?
I have no idea.
Something, goat, something.
Professional Golf Association. What do you think PGA stands for? I have no idea. Something, goat, something. Professional Golf Association.
What is it?
Fucking guy, old producer of Foreplay over here.
Yeah, that's right.
But I guess that's it.
I mean, we've been potting for over three hours now.
It's got to be the longest podcast I've ever done, probably.
But it was a blast, Clem.
This didn't feel like work at all, I'll tell you that.
We were saying at camp we were getting paid for this kind of stuff.
I know, yeah.
We were saying, out of principle, i'm just not gonna expense uh this you were saying you were you were like you could expense the itunes purchase like we're doing it for work
just it's like a thank you to the content gods yes just like a little offering here's 1999 on
itunes this is a movie that i want to own for the rest of my life. This is a movie that I will watch triple digit times in my lifetime.
I can never imagine a time in my life where I don't go back to this movie.
This is going to be one of those, I don't know if you can even do it with the DVDs you
can do it with, I guess, but you're going to wear that part of your hard drive.
Completely.
It's going to be dead.
Completely.
I'm one of these guys that wear your heart on your sleeve, like wear a lot of my interests on my tattoo sleeve.
There's no doubt I'll have an Avengers tattoo probably very shortly.
Like, I already have a fucking superhero tattoo.
I got Batman.
Yep.
So, I guess that's it, though.
Yeah, that was Robbie and Clem watching Avengers Endgame with you.
I hope you enjoyed.
If you watched Endgame with us, I hope it was as good a time for you as it was for us.
And if you liked the commentary, we'll more you could suggest other movies maybe we go back to
infinity war we really wanted to do the phantom menace for the 20th year anniversary we never
got around to it i would even love to do a bunch of the star wars movies before that release so
tweet us and let us know you know if you would like to see more and if so what movies you would
like to see us go back to because it was a really fun time for me, and I would definitely do it again.
I would love to do it again.
Like you said, it feels like stealing just doing this kind of stuff.
Shout out to Dave Portnoy for selling all those newspapers and making this possible for us.
Thank you to Dave.
Thank you to Erica for getting us to New York, really adding a pep in Dave's step on the other side of things.
Big Dick Peter Chernin for this beautiful studio and paying for it, footing the bill.
And Stan Lee for being the creator of all of this shit.
This is the first time I've seen all this, by the way.
I have never seen the credit things.
Oh, really?
Yeah, because I already pissed two times.
I was like, I got to run out.
The credits are nice, and they give the original six the nice Star Trek credit sequences where they have their signatures show up on the screen
as well. I've seen that part of it.
I must have went on the
Chinese thing.
What's Michelle Pfeiffer in?
She is at the very end in the funeral
as Hank Pym's
wife. Oh, okay.
She's literally only in that funeral scene
at the end there.
Ah, this fucking music is so good.
Just so fucking good.
Josh Brolin is down.
He should really win some kind of award.
I saw they're going to give Andy Serkis, like, a Lifetime Achievement Award in motion capture, which he deserves.
Absolutely.
I mean, he was like, he pretty much, here you go, here's your signature credit sequences.
But he was pretty much like the godfather of motion capture as far as acting goes.
And Josh Brolin deserves the same for his performance as Thanos, I think.
You put him right up there with Heath Ledger as one of the best comic book villains of all time.
And he did it through computers, which is fucking insane.
So that was it for My Mom's Basement.
If you haven't subscribed already, I would really appreciate it if you did so.
