Avatar, not only is it about to make a profit or start to make a profit, had a zero percent drop from last week. That never happens. That's massive. So Stranger Things Five, how's that going to end? It's going to end somehow with Will.

That's what they're talking about. Wakanda Forever is going to drop on Disney Plus when Yellowstone is going to be on a break. HBO is pulling some loonies. Loonies, some loonies. I'm going to say some loonies right off. It just depends on who you think the loony is. But Looney Tunes is going off HBO Max. And we're going to talk about obviously Jeremy Renner and hope that he's okay.

And that's a lot of the stuff that we're going to be covering today on the big thing. So if you haven't already done this, you should. You should subscribe to the channel. We are almost at 70,000.

Zafelars and Flats and Cal, Sith, the top gun guy. The top gun guy? All of those, make sure you check that out for sure. And we'd like to thank our sponsors over our. carbon health. Carbon health is great, man. If you watched last week's show with Dan and Roca, you know, the whole episode was sponsored by Carbon Health, but we were with them for a little bit.

Now, you may or may not know, Carbon Health, it is known for its 120 locations that handle urgent care, COVID, RSV, flu testing, vaccinations, but what people should be looking into is how they're expanding into primary care services that include connected health. If you don't know what connected health is, it's the idea that our health isn't just about our bodies, but also our mind. carbon health providers, they come connected with mental health specialists as well. Carbon health will be expanding these primary care services further in 2023. And if you're in Massachusetts, you'll be able to access to connected care next month since it's now expanded from California to Massachusetts.

Carbon health, an excellent urgent care and testing center, but don't sleep on their primary care services. So we're very excited to be working with carbon health, as always, into 2023. So let's get into it, man. It's the big thing. It's me and Brett. ready? I'm ready. Let's do it. It's going down, everybody. It is. 2023. It's me. It's this guy. Speaking of mental health. That's right. It's us. What'd you do to yourself for the holidays?

What I do with myself? How would you do to yourself? Just jerk myself and go home. Smashing off in a chair with a bottle of whiskey, I got him. You sample that? Yeah, I polished her off. Yeah, she sure did. Grandpa. Good to have you back, buddy. What a, what a, what a, 2020 was a good year for us, I think.

It was a good start. We got the studio ready, all that stuff happening, but we got a lot to do in 2023, man. It's going to be great. And one of the things that I wanted to do, just change it up a little bit. I did a poll the other day on the YouTube community page. I've been doing a lot of that lately.

So what I've noticed is that the more I do that, the more people are, this YouTube, they don't give you notifications a lot of time. So I said, ha-ha, screw you, YouTube. I'm going to do this thing. I'm going to basically do a poll and post my link inside of that. And then you can find it. And people say they've been finding the shows a lot.

And I see an increase in the episodes every time I do it. But one of the things that I did on that community page was say, look, let's do, I did this show with both Winston and Coy for Caps and Cals for the best of the best of the. year and I did this format with John and Dan. And essentially what it is is that I put up a whole bunch of these topics we wanted to talk about and we're going to bring them up and whoever's on the show, I say, okay, listen, we have a bunch of topics to talk about and you can go and choose one of those

and we're going to discuss it. So that's what we're going to do today. So Brett, I'm going to let you start here, buddy. We have a bunch of news that's out there. What do you want to talk about, my friend? I'd say the biggest thing on the docket, Looney Tunes. Looney Tunes. That makes a lot of sense. Actually, I'm interested in this because, you know, I read the article and I'm like, I'm wondering if the, well, let's say what's happening.

They're cutting. They've got like, you know, they used to have half the catalog, I think it was. It wasn't quite the whole catalog of Looney Tunes. I mean, there's thousands of these things. But they're down to like a fourth of them. Okay. And it's because of budget cuts and things like that. But I'm like, a lot of those Looney Tunes, they were fine for.

us when we were kids, but it was a lot of bombing each other and, you know, Roadrunner and all that. Yeah, yeah. I mean, so maybe they're kind of trimming the fat, too, because it's not exactly the content they want to be, be showing. I don't know. I think it's a little less than that. I think it's because. I was going to say Warner Brothers too woke as well.

Could be that, too. But no, I think that it's, it's the, they're going to try to sell a lot of their stuff. They're going to try to put a lot of their stuff on different platforms because they, they, when Discovery bought them, they're just. They're in a lot of debt. Yeah. They need to make up a lot of money. So I think that the problem with a lot of these studios,

and I think this is one of the things that Sony has kind of pride themselves on, is they don't have a streaming service. So Sony can sell a bunch of different shows and do different things, and they can make money hand over fist that way. But when you're part of a streaming service, you've got to stay on your service. I mean, you can license certain things out, but I think by licensing out and selling off your library and doing it that way,

you might see some extra revenue. I don't know. But, like, it is, I mean, the overall details, as such with this story is that Warner Brothers Discovery has reportedly removed half of its library of the classic Looney Tune shorts from HBO Mac service, despite the franchise being one of the signature's works of its media empire. The streaming service has removed season 16 to 31. Wow. From its library, 256 episodes in all causing the total number of classic animated shorts

available on the platform to drop from 511 to 255. Season 1 to 15 are still available, whilst related shows like Cartoon Network, works the Looney Tunes show and HBO Max's Looney Tunes cartoons remain available. The latter winning an Emmy the other week, the other week for Bugs Bunny's current voice performer Eric Bousa. So it looks like the latest casualty of the HBO Max cost-cutting content purge and falls in the wake of another animated show abruptly pulled from the platform including Infinity Train, Aquaman, King of Atlantis, close enough, and more. Others like the planned series Batman Cape Crusader were scrapped and will be shopped to other outlets. Wonder Brothers Discovery plans to license some of the remove shows out to free ad-supported third-party streaming service, but nothing has been announced in regard to the fate of the missing lunitune shorts.

Yeah, I think that part of it... That totally kills my theory because they're keeping the really old shit. That's probably the worst. I mean, and also the other reason why they're keeping it is why they would keep it is because remember, I think it's still you've got to have it relatable. I think that it's because you don't have to pay, I don't know, do you have to pay residuals still? I mean, I don't, maybe, maybe you have to pay, maybe there's certain payments that you have to pay the actors that when you're airing the episodes. Yeah, well, but even if they're not, even if they're not around, their families probably get the payments on it.

So that's interesting, man. Yeah, it's, it's, it's yet, I think we're going to hear more and more about this on HBO Max. I'm curious what you guys think. Is this something that you now at this point, it's kind of old hat with HBO Max? You expect to see more of it coming. Do you think it makes sense? Do you think this is more of a plan by Zazlov to make the cuts? What say you?

All right, I want to move on over now, and I want to get to this story with Jeremy Renner. Jeremy Renner, obviously, you know him as Hawkeye and many other things. Obviously, it's a brand new show coming out, or it's out now on Yellowstone, not Yellowstone, on Paramount. Let me do this again. Also, let's talk about Jeremy Renner here. So Jeremy Renner, this report comes from Dark Horizons, two-time Oscar nominated actor, Jeremy renner, he's in critical but stable condition in hospital following a weather-related incident that took place on Sunday.

Spokesperson said in a statement, we can confirm that he isn't critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather-related accident while plowing snow earlier today. His family is with him, and he's receiving excellent care. The actor was reportedly airlifted earlier today to a hospital near his house in the local area near Mount Rose Ski Tahoe near Reno, Nevada in the United States. The region saw a winter storm hit on New Year's Eve yesterday, resulting in 30, 5,000 homes losing power.

Further details about the accident and his injuries have not yet been related to the public and this article will be updated once more details are available. Renner is not new to serious injury and accident while filming tag in 2017. So I'll break both his arms because this is just going over his history. I mean, we, but yes, so he's been in a lot of different things. He was in 2002's Dahmer. He was in 2003 SWAT. He was obviously Hawkeye, the Boren Legacy, American Hustle, and so much more that we know

Jeremy Renner for. So I think that the first thing, obviously, that you think of right away as his family, right? But you had said it too, and as much of a bit it was, and it's like, you know, he's, this guy's loaded too. And he's, he was out there snowplowing by himself. Yeah. And he must have been, I mean, I'm guessing we're talking some big equipment because, I mean, you don't, with like a little snowblower or something like that. I mean, he's, he's, I mean, he must be in this beautiful, big home up in the mountains, but, um, maybe he had to, maybe was a necessity. maybe they were trapped in or something he was trying to get. Because, you know, those roads get blocked.

You can't get help for days anymore, no matter how much money. No, it's like every movie that he's in. He was in. What's the other movie that he was in recently? Oh, God, I can't. You guys are probably screaming at me about what it is. But I really enjoyed it. It was where he was, he was out in Alaska, whatever it was. And he's like this experienced hunter.

It was in Alaska. I don't know where it was. You know which movie I'm talking about? Down below or something. What the hell was it called? I don't know. It was an Australian. It was called down below.

No, what the hell was it called? It's driving me nuts. It's driving me nuts. It's on that list of... Let's see. People are already screaming at me. I can feel it, even in a pre-tape, I can feel them screaming at me. And I'm going to tell you what this is, Wind River.

Wind River? That seems like an older. Wind River? Yeah, Wind River. It was 7.7. You're crazy. That movie's awesome. This is 7.7.

Who's what's bringing that? I didn't realize it was 2017. Anyway, it looks like he's going to pull through. He's going to be okay. So at least that's what they're saying, right? Critical but stable. Still having critical in there still is a little disheartening. It's like, is he like what's the, what is critical but stable?

I don't know what that means. Is it like life support, but he's, he's pulling out of it. Yeah. It hasn't been enough information. But I guess, I guess that's my optimism saying that I hope he's going to be okay. I mean, I hope he's going to be okay. But, you know, he's, and he just said, Hawkeye, the show, he's got,

he's got, he's got the show on Paramount Plus right now. So this is, uh, it's, I'm just telling you, man, it's like, what the hell was they watching last night? I'm watching something that said, I can't remember which show was, but it's like, you know, oh, it was, it was, uh, 1923. And they're just talking about how there's a scene between two the characters. It's just, like, life just like that. Oh, yeah.

It's like, it's, you only really, it's just a blip. It's, it's so fast. And then, and again, I'm not saying that, I'm praying through here that Jeremy Runner is going to be okay, but I'm just saying you just never know what's going to happen. Yeah, and it's that constant reminder of that that we get. I mean, I think that's

these stories like this are things that make you up and go like, yeah, you know, just get out there. It's the truth. Yeah, man. Next day. It's the truth. And I guess we can try to maneuver into that as best as we can into something you know, a little more positive and talking about

one of the, one, I, let's stay with television. We're talking about 1923. I'm not going to spoil anything for anyone because I know that not everybody has caught up on it yet or maybe even started it. But I mentioned this show in the, and it was actually in my top 10 TV list, but I had reshot it, moved it. I was like, there's only two episodes so far. And there's other shows I want to move in there. So I reshot the entire list. But this show is fantastic.

And I was watching last night's episode. And as I'm watching, I'm like, okay, there's a couple soap opery moments in it. And I mean, maybe it isn't the strongest. And then they go, shut up, stupid. watch this. And then the ending is just like, whoa. You're watching the ending of the third episode. If you're into this show, you know what I'm talking about?

You're just like, what the hell are they going to do now? Because it's not like, sometimes they lead you up and then by episode six are like, boom, they punch you in the face quick, real quick. This is a spin-off or it's just kind of in the same? Like, I mean, how does Yellowstone in this match up? Because I haven't seen either. So I watched like the first four or five episodes of Yellowstone. I never watched the other one with Sam.

Elliot. But there's certainly references and things that like, they're all part of the same timeline. Yeah. It's like this is the like the great grandfather, I guess, of, or somewhere, the great, the great relatives of Kevin Costner's character eventually, right? But you don't, you don't, because of when it takes place, you don't really miss out on anything. You probably get a little bit more out of it. When you go, oh, that's the son that eventually from that Sam Elliott one, and that's, they're going to eventually lead there. I'm can you piece all together, but no, I'm not lost at all by watching it at this moment. And would you, is, is it a, um, a Western or is it more of like historical, like more

Western? I mean, it's got a gun shootouts and shit like that. Yeah. Okay. Okay. No, I'm down then. You sold me because the, the look on it is like this kind of rancher thing. Rancher. There's romantic moments and that's why Sadie likes it, right? But it's not, but it's not a romantic show like just a romantic show. I want to see, get off my property. You're going to see that. That's what, okay. You're going to see that. And this is, this is, uh, not, is it peacock or is it?

This is, uh, Paramount Plus. Paramount Plus. Okay. Paramount Plus is destroying right now. Okay. So I have to get Paramount Plus down. You have to get Paramount. Okay.

They have, they've got that. They've got, um, Tulsa King. They've got all, they've, the Yellowstone universe in general. They have the mayor of Kingston, which is Jeremy Runner. Um, they have all of these shows plus. And this is not necessary for you, but me for Blake. They have the, the, they're getting now the NFL playoffs. Oh, nice.

So Paramount Plus. is really making moves. But this episode last night of 1923 men, and again, like I said, I'm not going to spoil it free. I want to talk about it somewhere because it's, because I don't think that it's something enough that I could do like a spoiler review, that enough people will watch.

But I want to talk about this show. I really want to talk about this last episode. And if you guys, you can feel my pain. If you saw the episode, you know why I want to talk about it. But it's phenomenal. It's really good. And so I started while I'm watching that and I started watching as I told you before, I started watching the bear. Great show.

Yeah. Really good. I never had any reservations about watching this the same way I did like other shows. This was just something like, I'll get to it eventually. I'm glad I did. That kid is awesome. Well, on paper it just didn't seem like when people said, oh, it's a guy works in a, like I was like. Seeing it.

Yeah. Right. Seeing it, whatever. But no, we burned through that. Short episodes too. Yeah. Yeah. That's the nice thing.

It's something about, and you could do twice as many. half hour episodes as you can the hour ones for some reason. I can just boom, boom, boom, boom. I think we knocked that out in two, three days. Yeah, I'm getting close to, I was trying to do it last night. Then I started watching. And the other thing that I'm watching, because my daughter's so in a Wednesday, we're about six episodes into that or just finished six.

Yeah, six. And that's pretty good. Did you watch all that? Oh, she watched that without you first. She watched it without us. Yeah, that's what happened to me. Yes. And then she's like, you guys, and then she's, you guys got to watch.

So the three of us, my, my old, Vivian, my old. us and then my wife and I are watching that together. That's our thing that we're watching together. Yellow's 1923 is the one I'm watching with my wife and the bear is one I'm watching by myself. I tried to get my wife to watch it. She wouldn't watch it. The first episode is kind of chaotic. Yeah.

Like not the first episode, the first opening is chaotic. And then she's like, this is too intense. I'm like, give it a second. And she's like bailed on it. I'm trying to think there's anything else that I'm watching right now that, but there's tons. I people have really because I put my list out there's two things two things I put my list out. I put my list out about my top 10 movies and the comment I was getting the most about that because I said to the people I'm like hey let me know what movie that is missing that I maybe have

not seen that if you watch me long enough you think that I would like and overwhelming overwhelming was triple R overwhelmed oh yeah people are people are like you have to watch that movie it's on so many people's list and it's I think that what I'm going to do next is I'm going to finish the bear and I think then I'm going to go with triple R then I'm going to go that I'm going to I'm going to go that one because I was going to do 1899 but now 1899 is the series um that for dark the creators of dark did okay yeah but it just got canceled they said that they just put up apparently eight people loved 1899 but then there the creators posted and said that Netflix isn't renewing it it's like I don't understand.

Again, Netflix really, I think they're going to be stubborn and they're going to stick with this stupid binge model forever. I don't think they're going to change it. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, let me know because I'll do that one so we can talk about it because that's been the RRR. Oh yeah, okay.

That one's been on my radar for a long time. So do that one, but start watching 1923 and I think you'll watch what I was talking about with that one, by the way, is there. There's a guy, I'm going to bring up this guy's name because I did this last time and I'm not, I'm not doing it again, Brett. I'm not going to do it. This 1923, there's a, there's a guy inside of that, he played Bert Reynolds in the, the offer. And he plays Harrison Ford's nephew.

And he's, I feel he's going to be, he's, he's already a major character in the show, but I feel like he's going to be like the big star coming out. His name is Brandon Sklner. Brandon Sclenner. This guy is your next big star if they used him the right way. He was in Vice. He's in Westworld. Oh, and your favorite, the offer.

That's what I just said. He put Bert Reynolds in the offer. Oh, in the offer. I opened. I heard Bert Reynolds, and I was like, I thought it was like a biopic of Bert Reynolds. This guy, this guy is a major star. Like, he's got that thing. He could have played young solo.

He could have played young, you know, Indiana Jones. Really? He doesn't play a version of Harrison Ford, but he's supposed to be related to him as his nephew. And I believe it. He just has that thing about him. I don't know how funny he can be. He doesn't necessarily be super funny to play those roles,

but you have that kind of edge. But he's a serious character. He's like an ex-military guy who fought in the war in World War I, and now he's off in Africa kind of hunting freaking lions and shit. And he's a badass. And it's it's it's the move. The show's really,

really good. So anyway, that's that side of it. And I covered a lot. And Brett will go before we move to our sponsor for the day, or the sponsor, you pick one out. What do you got?

I'm excited about Wakanda Forever coming on Disney Plus because of course I didn't make it to the theater for that one. And it is something I really want to see because of the mix. reviews I've seen about it because I think people were so well I think people weren't as for the most part as pleased as they wanted to be I guess as jazzed all right let's let's get what am I wrong because I feel like people that I thought would have loved it um and loved the first one were like it was good but you know it was great but you know so I think it's like a little bit of an ish right like so for me I I feel that way where I thought it was a good movie I think the first one is way better but it's not fair

Yeah. Because a lot of different reasons. One, obviously the loss of... Yeah, that's huge. That's huge. That's part one. Part two is the impressive part with that movie is how fast they kind of put...

They announced a movie, Black Panther 2, when Chadwick Boseman was alive, they started writing the movie while he was alive, and then they lost him. Then you got to rewrite, and you got to get that movie out in like two, two and a half years. That's not easy.

You got to rearrange... And not only for just the... the numbers behind the semantics of it. It's the emotional right. You have to go on for that. So that part of it, what they were able to accomplish and what Ryan Cougar was able to do,

I thought was fantastic. And I don't think a lot of people could have done what he did. And there's a- Do you think that's a detriment? Do you think it was a detriment that they had, like when you say they had to push it out within a certain time frame

because of the MCU? Yeah, well, yeah. They have to go timeline and do it. I don't know if it was a detriment as much. It was definitely a restraint. in a certain... Could have been better. Yeah, I mean, they had more time to do it.

Sure. I mean, sure, but it's also the choices that they made. And I think that from my biggest gripes with the film, what I loved about it is it took you back to the emotional core of the MCU that I like. Like, I, they were starting to lose me with Dr. Strange and Thor, they, Thor Love and Thunders. I know you. I like, I like it less and less every time I talk about it.

And I was like, and then Shehulk. And I'm like, is this what, this is what it is now? I'm like, okay. you guys are making that choice. That's cool. I just don't know how long I'm going to stay on board with it because it's just not that tone. Especially after rewatching the whole MCU with my daughter. But this brings you back to that tone. Even the choices of the things that I didn't love about the movie, it doesn't change the tone. It's just like they introduce a character that I thought and people disagree with me. That was basically just to set up a TV show. And they were like, no, it was always, and even the director was like, it was always set up. They decided to make a TV show afterwards. I don't know about the hell. they're doing that, but if that's the case, sure. Minor gripe, and then it was a little long, minor gripe, a couple of choices here in there,

but for the most part, the emotional, it's a really good way. Yeah, and I heard it was, you know, the lot of people said it was a great, you know, love letter or homage to Chadwick Bowman, which is, you know, great. And I just, I honestly, it wasn't like, like I said, people didn't say they didn't like it. I just think they expected, like they wanted it to be better.

Sure. It wasn't. So it's in that not bad, still great, but just slightly. I would say it's a really good movie. I just don't put it in the great category. But I say it's really good. And speaking of which, okay, so Brett was, so Brett's going to have an opportunity to make his own decision here

because the Disney Plus service has announced that it will be coming out on February 1st, which is the premiere date for Marvel Studios, Black Panther, Wakanda Forever on the streamer. The film will launch with its IMAX enhanced version enabled. Ryan Cougar returns to direct the sequel, which has managed to generate 820 million at the box office from a 250 million budget and recently received two nominations

at the 80th Golden Globe Awards and six nominations at the 28th Critics Choice Awards. So, I mean, the critics have really dug it, and Angela Bassett will get rightfully so, I think, an Oscar nomination as well. So that's, yeah, so if you haven't had a chance to see, you should check it out. And what I will say is that all the movies, came out from Marvel this year. It's the only one that's going to hit Disney Plus that I'm right away going back.

I can't wait to watch it. I want to see it again. I think the Namor was really well done. Were you mad about them, CGI and his junk out? It's hilarious. They did that too. Well, and I think that on the rewatch, like there's, there's, right now my daughter and I were almost done with Captain Marvel.

And then we lead into end game. Oh, wow. Well, we took a, we were moving, but we took a, we were moving. But we took a break because of Wednesday and all this other stuff. But we're going to finish Captain Marvel, then we're going to get to end game, and then we hit into phase four, which is kind of like,

it just kind of goes a little bit. Wanda Vision, no, Wanda Vision, Loki. I'm looking forward to watching again, but. Is Wednesday the first time that she's ever done, which my daughter did? Watch it without you, and then you're like, what the hell? Well, to be fair to her, she asked if we could start watching it together.

I don't know what I'm going to get to it. And she's like, I'm going to start watching it. that's cool. So she started watching and when we went to Solvang and she was just yeah and then when I it's you realize though when your kids are getting older too because like there were certain times that we wouldn't let her watch certain things because of certain things that are in the show and I was why as we were we watching it um I'm like or we were we were watching a first time she's rewatching it and I'm like you know two three years ago we would be like yeah she can't watch this stuff with in the morgue and like you know certain like

words are, and they talk, people talk about, like, hanging themselves and shit. And I'm like, yeah, she's 11 now. Yeah. It sucks. But, like, she can, she can, she can, you know, to have the balance between reality. Definitely for me, because she didn't want to watch it with us. Yeah. And I'm like, what's, what's going on here?

Like, because then I went, oh, is it way too inappropriate? She's like, no, it's just, and I get it. It's, you know, like, teenagers kissing and stuff like that. It's silly things. And, but, I mean, as far as Lydia was somebody that, like, anything. that was somewhat like gory or whatever checked out. Right. She's, she's growing up. Yeah.

Yeah, it's the same thing. My daughter is obsessed with this. Yeah. Like obsessed with this. She was watching the Disney stuff for a bit and like Peyton List who was in Cobra Kai and everything. It was like her number one like big huge star. She has dropped compared to Jenna Ortega.

Yeah, like Jenna Ortega to my daughter. Jenna Ortega is like the major movie star. How long do we have to wait for the season two? I know. 2024. My daughter has told me significantly that it is 2024 when we have to wait. I think it's, you'll get the anticipation.

You got to remember how much stuff is coming out this year. Yeah. There is so much coming out in 2020. We're going to be like buried in so much great stuff. It's amazing. But in the olden day, real quick, in the olden days, it was like, season, year. It was year, year, year, year, year.

You know, sometimes. No, no, no. Not really. Sometimes. Not all the time. Look at the Sopranos, man. Well, okay. I'm talking in the Archie Bunker days.

The good old, no. Well, yes. If you're talking like traditional television, yes, because remember, traditional television when you had like the in-studio feel and not like, or even, you know, the green screen, not green screens, but you know, when it looked, then, when it looked like television, you could bang that shit out. But when you're putting all that effort into it. Friends and it was a good example.

I mean, that never took long hiatuses, did it? Maybe only because of contract negotiations. Oh, yeah. But not, yeah, but not because of production. Like, we need to make a cool middle of an episode. Well, because they were, yeah, because at that point they were generating it. But yes, yes, it was easier to make those things because they're in a studio. They have the studio built.

They have all that stuff done. They've got to write the episodes. But no, but when you look at something, look at Andor, right? Like, Andor is not coming out in 2023. It's going to come out in 2024 because they shoot on location. They have to write all the episodes. They got to put a little more quality into it. It's more cinematic.

But the reason that you can push out television faster than you can push out like movies is because with movies, it's almost like you're writing like one big episode. And then that's got to come out. You've got to put enough time into it that eventually you get it out in two or three years, whatever it might be. But in TV, you can write that first episode, whenever how long it takes you. And then you have shooting all that other stuff. But as the episodes are airing week to week, if you do it right, then you're editing, you're in post. And that's why when you do something like the binge model is another thing. people don't talk about.

The binge model like stranger things, you're waiting for the final season forever because you're dropping it all at one point. And you're like, here's the, we've got to edit it all like one massive huge movie and you drop it all at one moment as opposed to giving your post team a little bit more time. Episode one is out. Episode two is out.

But as two is out, you're working on three. You're working on four. You've got a team working on five. And that's why I think those, another reason why I think the binge model just works tremendously. Oh, you think it works. Okay.

I mean, binge, excuse me. Stretching it out. The week to week. Yes. Yes. Yes. I used to be a big advocate for binge because I wanted it all.

Like everybody else, giving me now. I need it now. Like, oh, man, Mindlorians coming out and they're going to do week to week. No, no, give me all. I'm so glad because it keeps into the conversation. Yeah. No, I like it too. I prefer that.

I mean, of course, I binge things, but I would prefer it to stretch it out. And again, if we're going to wait so long in between things, let me take a little longer to get to it. Or binge it once it's hit. Yeah. Or just wait. That's the whole point. Is it wait? Like, I'm glad I was able to binge severance, right?

I'm glad that I'm not going to be able to binge severance for season two. But I'm glad that the same thing would, like, bear. I'm glad that I can, like, I like, I like, I like looking forward to the show. Same thing with like 1923. And I want it to be in the conversation. I want people to continue to talk about it. And like, I'm so curious. Like, please watch, like, by next week, please watch 1923.

Okay. So we can talk about it. Before Yellowstone, it doesn't matter. You don't think. No. Okay. It doesn't matter. I'm like, I don't remember.

I think I've watched three or four episodes of Yellowstone. I don't remember anything except Kevin Costner's in it. And there's just certain things. Oh, yeah, I remember that. But, um. There's a baseball feeling. This is, yeah, yeah, yeah. And, um, but anyway, so like, it's, um, it just, and I won't be able to talk to you about it in spoiler on the air.

Yeah. We can talk about it off the air, but I want to be able to, we can talk about it in code on the air. But I don't know. I mean, if you're watching, if you guys are watching 1923, Please let me know, especially in the comments, let me know so I can maneuver and say, okay, maybe I'll do a spoiler review. I don't want to do it. If you're not going to, if people aren't watching it, it's pointless to do it. We just had this whole conversation beforehand about how it works now with YouTube and social media in general and all this shit, right?

And the algorithms is they punish you, unfortunately. Like as much as I'd love to do a spoiler for 1923, I just feel like I'll put it out there. And if like, if 3,000 people watch it. Like I put out the Puss and Boots review, which I thought people were going to watch families and stuff to it. It ate shit. It ate such serious shit that that review, nobody cared. Really? Yeah, it hurt my next video.

That's what, that's what people don't realize is like when you put these videos out and they don't work, they hurt your video. Do you think because people were taking their kids to Avatar? Do you think that like Puss and Boots didn't get the, you know? I think it's partially it, but I also think that it's the reason when you, when that movie came out, the trailer came out, or even they was announced, I was like, oh, okay, another pussy and boots,

I don't care. Yeah, I know, it didn't seem like, that should have been a straight-to-video kind of thing. That's what everyone thinks. It's a great movie.

It's a really great movie, and the animation's fantastic, but the problem is it's just like, kind of like, it's that, it's like, there's another pussy booze and boo? Yeah.

Who cares? But it's a really great movie. What? Right. So it's a, and the chipmunks was a great movie. Yeah, not chipmunks,

yeah. Chip and Dale. Chip and Dale. I never saw that. You never watched Chippendale. Dude, it's so up your alley. It is so up your alley. That movie is another one.

But you told me about it. There's just so much. There's so much. But again, when I tell you Chippendale is going to be good, you're like, really? Yeah. Chip and Dale? Same thing. That's what happened with Pust and Boots.

But before we get to the next story, I do want to tell you guys about athletic greens. I take AG1 by Athletic Greens, literally every day. I love it.

Now go to Athletic Green's dot com slash big thing athletic greens.com slash big thing check it out all right so as we now move on it's my turn I'm going to take one of these stories as well and I'm going to go into this avatar story makers there's a lot to talk about with avatar not only is avatar now um pretty much going to turn a profit so I didn't understand I just don't get it when people are like right away And I see this about our good buddy Winston. Yeah.

The movie was projected to make, in its opening weekend, worldwide, $500 million. It made $4.30. And I remember talking Winston outside. He's like, it's somewhat bombed. I'm like, it's somewhat bombed. On $430 million, how does it somewhat bomb? It might have been calculated incorrectly. But that's not a somewhat bomb.

It made a billion dollars in 10 days. Yeah. It is now made about $1.4. And this is the craziest part of this story. I have not seen at all. A movie do this. I mean, you guys can show me when. It probably has happened, but I don't know.

It had a zero drop-off, zero drop-off from last week. That never happens. It usually, you know, if someone goes, oh, look, it was a 30-percent drop-off, that's really great. 40% pretty good. Zero. The movie is going to make $2 billion now. It is absolutely going to make $2 billion. I thought it was going to tap out at 1.5.

it is going to make $2 billion. Mark my words. There's no doubt. It's going to my projection, three. You think so? I just wanted to happen. You just want it to happen. I don't know, man, that's hard.

No, I know it's hard. I know it's virtually impossible. But because I said it and I'm the one that doesn't know shit, I want it to happen too. I've seen it twice. Have you seen it twice yet? No, no. I definitely want to see it again.

You got to take the family to see it. Yeah, I've got to get Lonnie out there because I'm getting, we watched it in theater together. Yeah. She remembers it being great. It's just, you know, something, you've got to convince people to get three hours and 15. You just got to drag them to see it. It's like, it's an experience all together.

And I took, I mean, I didn't have to drag my daughter to see it. She was, she was super excited to see it. We went and she loved it. But let's get into this now, though, and this story overall. And there's two potential stories here, too. And the first part of it is, again, Dark Horizons here. I think it's the G-Men. Now, this is, this is from Garth, it's got to be Garth Franklin.

Of course it is. I think he owns this website. Those who doubted James Cameron, prepare to wipe that smirk off your face as the costly avatar the way of water is set to close out the year's box office with a big splash. In its third weekend, the film dominated the Friday box office with a haul of $24.4 million. It is currently on track to gross $66.8 for the three-day

and around $88 million for the four-day. This is domestic, by the way. The three-day is up 6% from last week's Christmas holiday, whereas the four-day haul, even if it's a dip overall, will only be 3-4% at most. By the end of the weekend, it will likely grossed more than 445 million to overtake Black Panther Waukana Forever as the second highest grossing domestic release of 2022. Pussin Boots, the last wish is set to come in second with $6.5.5 million on Friday, 15.9 over the three-day and 21.2 over the four-day, with a total gross of 66.6.

It's three-day as a rise of 43% compared to last week. Black Panther will come in third with 52, excuse me, with 5.2 for the three-day and seven million for the four-day. Whitney Houston, I want to dance with somebody. We'll take 4.1 for the three day and 5.2 for the four day. And let me go back now. So that was one part of it. That was the projections of what it was going to make. And I think since then, that's a little older report.

So we know how much it's made. Now here's the other part of the report. One of the big numbers being flouted about before the release of Avatar, the way of water, was $2 billion. That's the number that James Cameron says to films box off. It has to reach globally. break even. That's considerably above the standard measure for profitability used by box office analysts who say a good overall guide is that the film has to make three times this production

budget to reach that point. The mythology is that you take the film's budget and 50% again for its marketing costs and then double that amount because the exhibitors will take half the gross. Avatar the Waywater boasts a production budget of anywhere between 350 and 460 depending upon sources with complications arising over the fact that it isn't designed as a solo film and was shot in conjunction with the third film and parts of the fourth film. Going by the upper estimate, the film has to reach at least 1.3 to be profitable. Today, it reached the exact milestone and it's not slowing down. Variety confirmed the worldwide gross number,

and according to its sources with the studio, the break-even point is estimated to be around 1.4, which will hit within hours, if not already. The film grossed to another $63.4 million domestically over the three-day New Year weekend, is expected to bring in 82.4 by the end of Monday with a running total of 4216 domestically and 956.9 internationally. The movie is expected to cross the $1 billion international mark this week.

All right. So I'm going to look right now and I'm going to go over to... Where it's at right now? Right now. So that was by that report. So by that report right now, we are now at Avatar the Way of Water. I'm going on to box office mojo. It is at 1.4.

Yeah, so the same thing. So it's made 956, 440. They haven't updated yet yet, but as it stands on box office mojo. That's 1.4. And then this opening weekend, what it did, as we just said, it was 63.4. And I don't know how much made it internationally. But either way, this movie is not slowing down. What, I guess I have two questions.

So if I'm hearing this right, when they talk about budget, They're talking about shooting the... Three and four also. Yeah, yeah. So how does that... Does that mean if this profits, then you're already in a profit zone? You're already in a good...

Well, you're in a good spot, depending on what James Cameron decides he wants to do for the next movie's continues on. If he wants to spend more money, because you could also see him going, hey, we can spend more money now because we had... Oh, he might.

Recovery. He could possibly do that depending on it, but that's what people aren't taking into consideration. So people were talking marketing and everything else, too. So, like, anywhere between, as they were saying, 1.2 to 1.4, which is a crazy number for profit of probability, but they've already done it. Yeah. They've already done it because if you look, it's not just going to stop making money today.

It's going to continue to make money overseas. It's going to continue. There's no competition. Well, that's what my second question was like, what's coming out this weekend, what's coming out the next weekend? Like anything that people would go like, oh, I want to go to this instead of that. Ant Man's the next one. Ant Man's the next one. That's the next one.

That's February. That's mid-Febore. So it has no competition. It's got, you know, there's horror movies and other things that'll be coming out, but nothing that, you know, there are people that keep going back to watch it again. And if it has, even if it has a half of a drop-off, it's made, it made, what, another 200 million or something like that over the worldwide? Even if it makes another 100 million, you're looking at 1.5, it'll probably be 1.6 soon. And then the other thing that they don't talk about with Avatar, the first one, is that movie kept coming, they kept re-releasing it.

They kept re-releasing it. It just got re-released recently because end-game. was the number one movie and then they re-released Avatar again and it surpassed it. So they'll keep doing that with Avatar and they'll probably do it before the third one comes out. Oh yeah, 100%. Yeah. I think and again

that's why I made that outlandish clay, you know, like oh, it's a big billion or whatever but I just think that like the people that love it are going to convince their friends to go see it and I haven't heard a lot. I get a, you get a couple here and there within my group of people that are like, it's the same old story, it's

it's like, but it's beautiful. Right. It's like, it's an experience. And it's a different, yeah, the story is the same as maybe something, but isn't pretty much everything we watch the same damn story. And I think that's, that was my, that was my argument with the first one too. And I think, but I think this one suffers less than that. The first one, there's a lot of movies that you can say, this is, I've seen this

a million times over. There's moments and things that you've seen in, in, in the second movie. But I mean, even, shoot, like Wednesday, right? Wednesday is a show. I've seen so many movies and TV shows. I've predicted everything that happens in that show. It is so easy to predict. I know who's this person.

I know who's that. I know who's going to happen here. But I have fun watching it. I'm entertained watching it. And it's like those types of things that doesn't bother me. But in the case of Avatar, I went back for that second time because I wanted to go back to Pandora. I wanted to live there again.

I wanted to be in that fan. I just, it just, those Avatar movies just do something. that other movies just don't do. It's okay to like something because it's just visually. Yeah, it's true. But I mean, the action scenes too, though.

I like it more than that. The story really gets me and like emotionally, but you're just saying in general. That say like, ah, you know, it's like, well,

is that all you hung on to? And I heard like, oh, well, there's plot holes and things like I'm like, there's plot holes. No, I mean,

they left you hanging on some things like, you know, Ripley, her daughter. Oh, yeah. Ripley's daughter, you know.

Ripley's daughter, yes, Surony we've. Yeah, but that's just open-ended to like, like, you want to learn more about her. Yeah, yeah. It wasn't like, oh, well, she was going to have a stroke if she went down and thing again. And, you know, like, and she did, no, no, there's a mysticism about her that we're going to learn. She's like, Neil.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, well, anyway. Stop hating everything. Well, the funny, the thing that I just didn't, like I said a million times over, there's just, there's people, I've saw other comments of whether it was videos or people tweeting out about how Avatar bombed an avatar. was horrible and avatar is not going to do well because of this and political things and this and they're making videos and they're doing that because it you're hurting you're hurting yourself and you're not hurting yourself in my personal view on it right and part of that is I understand because we were talking about this too when you make these videos and whether these hate videos

or whatever is too every video you make basically is a hate video now yeah because it's like well that's my brand that's what I have to do that's what people are expecting it's like I've been making these hate videos about this particular thing. And now, if I like it, my audience isn't going to trust me. And then the problem is, if you're just hating it, you say, like, well, this movie bombed. And it just made $1.5 billion. How do you, how do you say that it bombed? What's your, what's your, what's your, what's your proof on that?

And it's like, but it's okay to go, no, you know what? I was wrong. I was wrong. I want to see someone do that. I want to see someone say, thought it was going to bomb, thought the numbers came in, misread the report, and said, nope, it doesn't mean I like the movie. I still hate the movie. I still hate it, but I was wrong. But it's like those types of things don't happen because you just, I don't know, it's, it's, I just can't stand how politicized movies have become. Like,

the movie sphere has become just as politicized as anything else. It's ridiculous to me. And that's from the minute I came into the Shmo's, you know, no show and like all this stuff. I was, some comments I made and some things that I was talking about. Um, and I, um, and I, I got attacked for stuff, and I'm like, wait, what the fuck's going on with the world? Yeah. Well, remember, though, it's, and it's both sides of it, too. Like, you can't, if you say, because you can say, and I saw it, I saw it not as much of me, I'll be honest, you know, where with, like She Hulk, I didn't like that show.

Yeah. I just did not like the show. I liked the first two episodes a lot. And then the more and more it got worse. But I did see people who gave fair criticisms. There were certainly people out there, there were turds about it. But I saw people who give fair criticisms going, oh, you don't like it because it's a woman. And like, that's not what the person's saying.

That's not what they're saying. You don't like it because this person's in it. You don't like it because of this. No, I'm not telling you that doesn't happen. That certainly happens. But it just on both sides of it a lot of times, it just, there's just too much.

Don't tell me why I didn't like something. Right. You know, you don't know what I like or dislike and whether, yeah, that's the dumbest thing, but that's the problem. That's a button pushing. But wait, wait, but that's the thing. Sometimes it is accurate to say that.

Okay. Because if there's a certain person who you know, always going to say it's because they're going to hate it because there's a black person in it, then you should be able to call that person out because you just know right away, of course they hate it because of this. They're not even watching the movie. But I think if you give right criticisms and you give fair criticisms and you say things that are like, look, I didn't like this movie and I didn't like this particular character because of this.

You shouldn't get roasted for it. You don't have to agree with the person. No, no. But roasted for it. And so that's what I'm saying. Both sides are guilty on, and I, and I, I think that, and there are a lot of times in the other side, too, there are people that just love everything.

And, like, God bless them. But it's exhausting. Yeah. It's exhausting. When they, like, you turn it on, you're like, oh, I love this because this. I love this because this. I would never in a million years call a person. Yeah, a fucking shell.

It's like, no, you just love everything. It's like, I don't know if I can want. I mean. Did we get our camera checks, though? We got them. Okay. But I said, but I was like, you know, so someone said, like, I looked at this, a mutual friend of ours, sweetest person in the world,

loves everything. I can't take the opinion serious all the time because I just know, okay, well, let me guess. Here's this movie. I bet you they'll love it. Everybody hell's saying it. Loved it. And it's like, okay. That's, that's, that's, that's, and I, and I think that that's a, what, if you had a

choice between the two, like, you know, if you're going to walk around with a smile in your face, love and everything or, oh, it's, it's, it's just life's too short as we're just talking about. They hate everything. Anyway, um, all right, let's, let's move on to another one, Brett. All right. So we got, we just, we talked about Avatar. Quite a while.

We'll wrap up with what's you got? You got one more thing you can talk about. What do you want to talk about? Well, I guess, yeah, I guess Yellowstone on break is. We kind of talked about that, I guess. Yeah, yeah, okay, Stranger Things ending with Will. I mean, that makes a lot of sense. It started with Will, right?

Yeah, I want to know what this report is, actually. So this is Stranger Things Season 5 is to end with Will. What does that mean? What does that mean? This is what Garz Franklin over at Dark Horizons. I've heard. Gee man. Yeah, that's right.

If anyone has gotten the short end of the stick in the world of Stranger Things, it's been Noah Schnaps, Will Byers, who's been absent for most of the first season, and then a key part of the second. The writers have seemingly struggled ever since to figure out what to do with the character, and especially they never get him a good haircut. The recent fourth season seemingly confirmed rumors about Will's sexuality, though it was never outright stating it, even as it was widely seen as mishandling that aspect

in the first of two key scenes about it. On the other hand, the scene involving a kind of heartfelt moment between him and his also-sign-brother Jonathan was one of the recent season finale's high points. Even so, it often felt like the pair were barely in the recent season. Fans have been concerned that the upcoming fifth and final run will once again drop the ball when it comes to handling the will storyline. In an interview with Forbes, Schnapp says not to worry as the show's new season will come full circle.

Schnapp says, it's hard for me to not think of the beginning when I say that. I know. I can just tell you that I'm very, very excited for what's to come. I think they did a great job with Will's character this season and beautifully addressed everything they needed to. The way they closed the show is perfect. The story started with Will and it'll end with Will. Will has long had a psychic connection to the upside down since he first disappeared. Since he first disappeared in the show's first episode,

the new season is set to take place within Hawkins, with the whole group back together after being split apart in the fourth. All four seasons of Stranger Things are available to stream exclusively on Netflix. Okay. So, yeah, so there's a lot here. I think that he has stated that it'll start there too. I like, we talked about it on the best show with Dan and John, and John is not a fan of No Snapt,

just I think he's a great actor. I think he's fine. He's been fine lately. I disagree with the report. He hasn't had really anything to do. You watched the last season. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They just had him like,

he was just there. Being sad. And conflicted. Yes, he's conflicting. Yeah, and they just didn't really, and you don't.

Should I give him the painting? Should I not give him? That was his whole story. He didn't really know what, what to do and he wasn't really talking much. And even, yeah, he didn't,

but they were right. The moment with his brother was really sweet. Well, and that is, I mean, that is being a kid that age. He was in a place where it's just like where he's awkward. He doesn't know what to think about.

You know, the friendships are changing. They're moving off in different directions. And he's internalizing it. And I don't see anything wrong with it. I mean, it's not like they did him dirty. And I think that's probably why it will go to him because they're giving him something. You're like, what's going on with Will. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Let's see really what's going on with him because he does have the biggest connection to the underworld, under. Yeah, it's fine. Upside down under. Yeah, you get down under. We're back to the down. All right, guys. And then you guys, we're back here. So happy to be back.

And there's a lot going on on the channel. As I said to you, we are now, we're getting close to 63,000 subscribers. And we're almost there. We hope that you guys, if you're watching the show, that you've been part of that. If you haven't, Apple Podcasts and Spotify are very important. We're making a big push on that this year. If you haven't done the audio, please do the audio. Download the episodes, do all that.

And I'm also, I've been doing a lot of the short form videos. There's a lot on this channel. There's a lot on TikTok, and Instagram and all that. Of course, I post a Waffle House TikTok and it does almost a million views. Perfect.

Which is, I'm very happy about it. Thank you guys, and we're getting close, like I said, with the 70,000, once you get a 70, we're going to start really

taking that live tour serious. So we're going to get there. We're going to get there, and I think this year's going to be really good, and I'm so glad that you guys have been on the journey with us. And please let me know in the comment section as we did the format a little different today

where we had all the news stories and we just kind of bounce back and forth, and we're going to let the guests, whether it's Brett or whoever's on here, choose and talk about the stories that they want to talk about. And if there's stories coming up that you guys want us to talk about, please submit them. But that's it, man.

Thank you for Brett Sheridan and for myself. This has been the big thing. Monday. Peace out, everybody.
