So this is the me live show with you today.
Hope you had a great weekend, holiday weekend and did what you had to do.
Happy April Fool's Day.
I'm sure there'll be a lot of stupid stories running around about who the next Batman is
or all this other stuff.
so enjoy it fool your friends fool yourselves do whatever you got to do i'm happy to have you on the show
today to have you to be back on the show with you today we have some news and as you saw kong and
godzilla people went and they expected what they wanted from that movie and i think they got what
they wanted and they got entertainment out of it and it is the box office king as that's like they
think of the biggest opening of the year so far surpassing even dune good start
for Warner Brothers.
So we'll discuss that.
A very anticipated film coming out that I'm going to see shit, man, I'm going to see it on
next Monday.
It's Civil War.
Alex Garland is the director of that.
X. Machen is one of my favorites in a long time.
It was a great movie.
Really like what Alex Carlin has done as director.
And he says, I'm done with directing.
He's retired.
No more.
He's going to stick with writing.
Where'd that come from?
Why did he decide it?
talk about that uh the punisher these are some new shots of him john bernthal's the
punisher on the daredevil series and he started kind of really getting into it so we'll discuss
what his role is going to be and um you know as i mentioned earlier with cong and godzilla
adam wingard is doing he's he's got a he's got a hit so obviously when you got to hit people
start saying what's next it's talking about thunder cats i remember thunder cats fan trailer that came
out a long time ago that people did on YouTube and had it used like Brad Pitt from Troy as Liono.
And I wonder what the live action version at the time back then when they'd say,
yeah, you can never do a live action Thundercats movie because the technology is not there.
It'll be a bunch of cat people running around and it won't look cool.
I think the technology's changed where they could actually make it work.
And I'm curious how they're going to approach it.
And we'll talk about that.
discuss it. And obviously I'm going to take questions from you guys. And I already saw it before
we even started filming. People throwing the questions in there. And the way it works on the live
show on Mondays is that I'll do the main topics. Normally I'm doing the main topics with John
and we'll go and we'll cover the topics. And then at the end, we cover all the live streams.
The live streams? Yeah, it works. Sure, we cover every live stream that is any person is
live streaming right now. I'm going to pop in and do a dance. But no, we'll take any question
that comes in, any stream, I can't say the word right now. I don't let me have all my, my coffee,
but we'll get there. Super chats. Found it. So when you guys put those super chats in there,
I will go through them at the end of the show and we'll talk about it. If you're brand new to the show,
you've never been here before, hit the subscribe button, be part of this. We've got a lot of stuff coming
this week. I think, what the hell am I going to see? I'm going to see something this week.
I've got two movies. I think I'm going to see the Omen. That's definitely one of them.
And I've seen something else. I can't remember what it is. But I'm definitely going to see the
omen. Is that the only thing coming out this weekend? You guys will tell me in the chat, I'm sure.
But there's other stuff coming out. And I think I'm seeing both of them. I'm definitely seeing the omen.
And then we start to pick up these April movies here, starting to move into the May big season.
I was going to go to CinemaCon. I'm not going anymore. But nonetheless, we'll talk about maybe what the hell they're going.
going to show it's in my going. All right, Apple Podcasts, Spotify. If you haven't joined Patreon,
do it. We're having some fun over there. I hope you'll join us. Okay, it's me. It's the big thing.
Here we go. This is why I love the chat. You are correct. The other movie I'm going to see this week
is Monkey Man. How could I forget that? Excited about that one. Um, so yes,
Monkey Man and Omen, those are the two that I'm seeing this weekend. See, this is what I love the
live chat for. And I see all these freaking questions coming in, Ray. I love you guys. Thank you.

I'm the best. You're the worst.
This is all bullshit.
Get me out of this piss hole.
That's what I'm saying. Yeah.
That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
Anyway, I don't know what his name is, but that robot is, he's a real, he's a real son of a bitch.
Punk robot. He's a punk.
I call him punk.
I don't know.
but oh yeah so
WrestleMania
so somebody put that in the chat
I got a fun show I think what I'm going to do this week
I don't know which show yet I haven't figured it out
some of the co-hosts not going to be happy with me
because one of the shows whether it's
it's either going to be this step and Mike show
or the Roxy and Brett show won't air this week
because I'm going to move capes and cows to Thursday
and Friday show
is going to be myself and Chris Van Vleet
and special guest Kathy
Kelly virtually.
And we're going to be doing a
WrestleMania preview.
So that will air on Friday, obviously.
So one of those shows is going to be
is going to have to get pushed.
I don't know which one it is yet.
I haven't decided.
So that's going to be a fun show,
though, because we're going to,
it's like Chris, Chris Van Bleet.
Besides Chris Van Bleet,
kick an ass on his show what he's doing.
You see his interviews everywhere because he's a brilliant
marketer. He knows how to, he's got great
interviews. People like to talk to him.
he's just such a great dude.
He's just a great dude.
Like he's a, he's a, he's a, I absolutely call him a friend.
Uh, the most positive person you'll ever meet.
I cannot say enough great things about Chris Van Bleet.
I really can't.
He's just such a good person.
Uh, and he's going to come in on, we're going to record actually tomorrow.
So his portion, myself and, and, and Chris will be taped tomorrow.
And then I'm recording Kathy a little later on in the week.
and then we'll put it together. So it's going to be a good one. It's going to be a good one.
So anyway, let's get into some stuff here, guys, because there's a lot of it. There's a lot of stuff to discuss with you today.
And let's start with the big one, pun intended. This has Godzilla and Kong, New Empire.
It's got this year's biggest debut. The Titans have been beaten all their pre-release box office expectations for gargantuan open.
This is from Dark Horizons.
Adam Wingard's Godzilla and Kong, the new empire, has had the biggest global opening weekend of the year,
taking in 194 million worldwide in its three-day and beating out the debut of Dune Part 2 at 178.
Domestically, it landed at 80, which fell short of June part 2, which had 81.4,
competing with itself Warner Brothers is.
So I was wrong when I said, what is Warner Brothers doing?
Why are they trying to eat up their own competition?
and Duna had taken a break and started going, not downhill, but it started to wear off.
People had saw it that wanted to see it, and that was it.
And then they put Kong in, and Warner Rose is crushing right now.
Crush, crashing.
A big contributor outside the United States was China, which was responsible for 44 million of the movies overseas gross.
Mexico and India also came out big for the monster mashup, which cost 135 million to produce.
The results have pushed the overall monster-verse film.
passed the $2 billion mark.
It follows in the wake of the busy box office period as Dune Part 2 has now hit $626 million after five weeks of release,
while Kung Fu Panda is up to $347 million after four weeks of release.
Oppenheimer also finally debuted in Japan, and it made $2.5 million in its opening weekend,
placing third in the country after two local films.
It's big numbers, guys.
That's big numbers.
and as I said, look, I'll say this and I said it many times over.
There was two things in that report that I was wrong about.
First was that I said that I don't understand why Warner Brothers is putting out
Congress as Godzilla in the same month as they're releasing Dune.
Why would you do that?
Well, they said, shut up, stupid.
We're putting it in the beginning of March.
We're going to own all of March and right as everyone stops seeing Dune and we're picking up
and we're crossing around the 600 million mark, we're going to hit with our other two big
Titans and we're going to make a ton of money.
So shut up and talk of your nonsense.
I said, okay, because that's what happened.
And it made total sense.
The other thing I was wrong about is that when we were going,
I was it means Sean Chandlerler.
We're going over our summer,
or not a summer, but our yearly thing.
I said, well, Kung Fu Panda.
If it does well enough, could hit a billion, no chance.
Barely been in a 400.
I said it could, depending on what kind of success it had,
but it doesn't matter.
What the two movies, both Kong and Godzilla,
Kong and Godzilla.
I didn't say versus.
Kong and Godzilla and Kung Fu Panda did well
that we've been talking about on this show
for months now.
Cut your budgets.
Godzilla and Kong cost like 125.
Now, normally, because of all the inflation
and all this shit,
you'd say, wait a minute,
this movie probably cost 250,
and they probably would have spent 250 on it
about two or three years ago,
but they didn't need to.
And you got good actors in this, but not high-priced talent.
You didn't need this.
You didn't need it.
You didn't need high-priced talent for it because you're going to watch the monkey and the lizard fight things.
That's it.
That's why you're going there.
And so it doesn't matter.
As long as you have capable actors, Dan Stevens, Rebecca, D.N.
Steven, Rebecca, D.R.O., great.
That's it.
It's all you need.
You don't need high-priced talent on this.
And that's why you get Scarlet Johansson in the,
in the drastic thing and that's it put it around everybody else low price talent not not as far as
ability as far as fart it fart it fart it fart all over the place have a blast with it pun intended
but this is what happens when you do it right you make money and they're and if this movie would
cost 250 it's like what are you doing why you cost it's 250 or whatever it costs i know not including
in the marketing. I get it. It's always a comment, but I'm talking about the budget alone.
This was smart. It was smart. It really was. So I'm impressed. I'm impressed. One of
brothers are doing well because now April is usually that what they used to do is you'd get
something like the Avengers or something along the lines of that. And they'd probably start
happening next year because there's going to be so many freaking movies coming back out because
of the strikes and all that.
But this year, the April is like that calm before the storm of the summer movies.
This is March was, it's funny because March was really big with Warner Brothers, right?
Like Ghostbusters did okay, but good month, good month for the movies.
Ghostbusters, Dune, and Kong and Godzilla and Warner Brothers says, well, thank you very much.
So I still think Arthur the King was pretty good.
Nobody else watched it.
Nobody saw that movie except me.
The few people I was at the screening with and I think the dog.
That was it.
But I like that movie.
Much better movie than it probably people don't give me credit.
So yeah, do me favor, guys.
Hit that button, that comment button and tell me, comment button.
As you can tell, my head is in a different place right now.
I can still, I can, I can, I can talk.
There's things going on in here.
It's like, it's like, there's like a bunch of, of things just fighting in there to say,
you got where I'm going with certain things.
I'm like, okay, comment.
Instead I say, hit the button, but you understand, right?
I think you understand.
Anyway, we got a lot going on here, man.
I've talked to you guys about it.
And I think that eventually the Streamyard live show on Mondays will go the way of the dinosaur.
Not live, not the live show.
The stream yard version of it.
The reason I like Streamyard is because when you guys throw in the super chats,
it's easier for me to bring up, you just hit a button, go through it, it's easier.
And I don't know what to say it's necessarily a lazy thing.
but it's just because I haven't had the time to really set into the OBS that I use to do,
you know, bring up the, I can, I can still, there's a program that I can do it much easier,
better quality.
And that's what I was telling people, because I, if you watch me on Schmowdown and you
watch, there might not be anyone that hates virtual shows for a while more than me.
However, I found a new program that I was using because the thing is what happens when it's a one-on-one show on Stream Yard, it's not too bad.
Like John and I can go back and forth, but even if we talk over each other for a second, streamer does this thing where it like muddles your audio and it doesn't sound as good.
And even this quality of the of this shot looks fine.
But it's not as crisp as when you can adjust things in the OBS system.
And so I've been doing that more with the Tuesday show.
and I had Mike.
Mike's camera doesn't look the best,
but I was able to do some things in OBS.
It was great,
and you can go switching back and forth.
And it sounds like we're in the same damn room.
And I'm going to have Roxy and Brett together in the same room.
This is for when I'm,
when I move,
they're going to be in the same room.
Winston and Coy will be in the same room.
And then Steph and Mike will be in the same room.
So it won't be three different people in different rooms.
It'll be me and I'm going to have a new studio.
We're building a,
Brett's going to go with me to New York.
I'm going to build out a new studio.
And it's going to be better than this one.
And we're going to do some really great things with it.
And I'm going to have Matt Sarah live in studio.
I'm working on another few people to have in studio with me.
It's not, I'm not doing like, you know, a bedroom show.
So I'm going to do a studio show the same way they do now.
And I'm going to do, I'm going to have a New York crew.
I'm going to have L.A. crew.
So we're going to do the whole thing.
And I would ask the same questions if I were you guys, right?
So all I tell you is that we're going to have, because I've been testing it out.
And if you've seen, first of the Monday show with Roke and I has been every time I do a poll,
it's like the first or second voted most favorite one that you guys like.
And that's been virtual on stream guard.
It'll get even better once I start getting John and myself in the OBS side of it.
And I'm going to be doing, we're going to be doing a few different things.
We're going to be doing the idea was we were going to do this at one.
point, but I don't think it's going to work out.
We were going to do Brett and I were going to bring something up to the audience and say,
look, we're going to try to do a, whether it's a go fund me or something or two.
And we were going to try to get Brett to rent a truck and get this big huge truck and drive
all this shit across the country documenting it the whole time.
And then we would stream back and forth, shoot shows from him on the road and then take
the cameras and.
record us that i would i would fly in new york also and then i would then we would set up and do um
and set up the actual studio and record all that and watch the whole building of it but the it
came out to something like if we were going to do go for me it was it was an insane number sort of like
we're not we can't we're not going to do um so we're we're still figuring out what we're going to do
we're in the process of it so anyway anyway so that's what i got that's what that's what that's what i'm
That's what I'm doing so far.
And we have a lot of different things that we're going to be that we're excited about.
And we're going to build this.
Like this studio has done very well for us.
And I really like it.
And it's been like a cool little cave.
But we're going to make like the way advanced version of that.
And Brett, Brett's going to build it out.
And I want to, and it's going to, camera's going to look better and all this stuff.
It's going to be, as I'm looking around here too, it's going to be, it's going to be, it's going to be excited.
I'm excited for it.
And the program I've been using is the one main reason.
One of the main reasons I made the decision because I really like it.
Okay.
So let's keep going.
Let's go to the next.
Actually, you know, before I do that, let me tell you something.
I'll tell you this because as we also, every single show, we're blessed to have the great sponsors that we do.

Okay.
So let's get into some not so wonderful news, guys.
This story kind of really broke my heart over the weekend.
and I saw because I really liked the boys spin-off series Gen V and man this kid chants
Prudurma he was he was a standout he was a standout in the show for sure and then there
was news tragic news over the weekend or or April when was it it was a it was a couple days ago
I think it was on either Saturday I think it was Saturday unfortunately he he passed away in a motorcycle accident
it. Um, and it's absolutely heartbreaking, devastating to lose anybody in general, but to lose
somebody that young. Just absolutely horrible. Um, and now this news also the obvious is that
they're, and I think they were going to start filming season two and recently they, they, they just
said, um, well, this let's hold on a second. Let me tell you, let me tell them more the details first
and what they had said about the show in general afterwards.
American-born British actor, Chance Prudoma,
has passed away at the result of a motorcycle accident.
He was 27.
He was known for three roles.
He first came to many's attention as Ambrose Spellman,
Sabrina's warlock cousin under house arrest and Netflix chilling adventures of Sabrina.
And most recently, he was known for Gen V.
He was slated to begin filming the second season of Gen B in the next week or so.
So PerDermal was also.
known for a supporting role as Landon Gibson in the after the fall film trilogy and scored a BAFTA nomination for best actor for his work in the BBC 3 telemovie killed by my debt.
He also had a recurring role in the kids series. Heady Feather invoiced the BBC thriller, The Seinfir.
The statement from his rep says his passion for the arts and insatiable appetite for life was felt by all who knew him and his warmth will carry on in those who he loved dearest.
We ask to please respect the family's wish for privacy as they mourn the loss of their beloved son.
brother. The producers of Gen V released a statement as well. We can't wrap our heads around this.
For those of us who knew him and worked with him, Chance was always charming and smiling and
enthusiastic force of nature, an incredibly talented performer, and more than anything else,
just a very kind and lovely person. Even writing about him in the past tense doesn't make
sense. We are so sorry for Chance's family and we are grieving for the loss of our friend
and colleague hug your loved ones tonight. This is devastating. This is absolutely horrible.
It's, yeah, very hard to read, to be completely honest with you.
Finishing this, and then to no one's surprise, there's delays of season two in the wake of the news of chance passing away.
They confirmed the production of the second season has been delayed indefinitely.
Trade indicates that the cast and producers were set to reconvene for the new season's first table read this afternoon ahead of the start of filming on Monday,
April 8th. Instead, they're learning the news of Prudomo's death in a motorcycle accident.
Specifics are still unknown, but he's believed to have died late last night or early this morning in upstate New York.
Additionally, it has been reported that no other individuals were involved in the crash.
Perdomo had the second biggest role in the series as Andre Anderson.
He was behind only lead actress, Jess Sinclair, on the call sheet.
So the production team will either have to massively overhaul the new season and redo all scripts to write the character off or recast.
the role either way a significant delay was inevitable in the wake of the tragedy oh man that's that's
that's that's that's that's that was hard to read that was hard to read all the way around 27 years old
yeah um 27 years old and and yeah he was i mean i didn't know the man but i can from the way that
his this particular role played he could tell he was just there's a reason he was cast in the role
that he was he had a kind of beacon of light around him and he had that he was he was like kind of the the the
he was one of the leads um and this is uh the fact that he was it didn't seem
whatever might it happened whether he lost control the bike whatever it was just
remember being 27 years old you just kind of you feel at that point you're just like yeah i guess
i got the especially in a hit tv show you're probably on the you feel you got the
where your your fingertips and then and then that you just like that so like they said in that report
hug your loved ones it's it's horrible i do wish nothing but um but but but love and and and and and i hope
that that its family can get some kind of of of of peace eventually because it is it is
oof i heard that over the weekend man and i was just like oh man like that that one got me that one got
me no there's never an easy transition past this when you when you're talking about it you know
Like anytime you lose somebody, especially in the entertainment business,
but somebody, especially at 27 years old.
It's like that is very, that is very tough to do.
So anyway, 27 years old, 27 years old.
All right, let's, let's move on to another story if we can, if we can.
And we're going to get to the fact that I think, well, let's go to this one, man,
because we talked about this on Friday on capes and cows.
And we had said, well, you'd look, Gunn didn't debunk this one.
Maybe there's some truth to it.
Maybe this kid is going to be Two-Face.
We'll see.
He hasn't debunked it.
Well, that's one down the toilet.
DC Studios co-CEO and filmmaker James Gunn is busy filming his Superman legacy project right now,
but it has taken some time out to answer some questions online.
First up, he recently shot down the rumor that Boyd Holbrook has been cast as Harvey Denton, Matt Reeves,
The Batman Part 2, giving a straight up fake response to the report.
Next, he was asked if there were any casting updates on the authority movie, which is in the works.
So far, Maria, only Maria Gabriela de Ferreya is casting as Angela Spisa.
I don't know, I'm sorry.
The engineer for Superman Legacy has been the sole one announced,
far. Gun has explained on threads why no further casting announcements have been shared. He said,
we won't greenlight a film until we have a finished script that we're happy with, and in general,
we won't cast a film until that script is finished. This is why some projects are moving faster
than anticipated and others moving slowly. It's always going to be quality first, no matter what.
Then asked if any other DCU projects have their scripts in yet, to which he says, yes.
Asked if besides Peacemaker, Season 2, Superman, Creature Commandos, and Supergirl are the only ones of
script so far he responded nope meaning not only them he also confirms he hasn't written any of the others
that have been completed the authority is the team that operates unilaterally independent of politics
law or ethics doing whatever it's necessary to complete their missions and their goals the film is
expected to be one of the early ones in the new dc universe uh okay so there you go so maybe hoy
isn't the guy.
Maybe not.
And that is something that we're going to hear more of, I think, in the beginning of next year.
Because you don't start, that movie doesn't come out.
The Batman Part 2 doesn't come out until 2026 of October.
So you got a lot of time before that comes out.
So more rumors will start to hit before you get actual confirmation on stuff.
And if guns out there saying, nope, not true.
I will say this, though.
There were a couple times that he said.
There were some rumors about the flash that, like George Clooney,
was going to be in it. And he said, nope, not true. At least that's what I remember. You guys can
correct me if I'm, then it was true. But I don't know that. I don't know if you can correct me in
the comments if I'm, if I had that wrong. But that's a that's kind of what I remember. So maybe he's,
maybe sometimes because he's usually debunk stuff and it's usually no. If he says it's not,
then it's not. But maybe this time, why why he's going to choose this one to lie about? I don't know.
And the, as far as the other stuff goes, I think it's promising that he said, oh, there's other
scripts and I like this comment you always want to hear whatever creator it is saying it's about
it's about quality it's not about quantity you always want to hear somebody say that now a lot of
times when people say it's not necessarily true but I think in the case of gun it is so I don't know
what do you guys think about it do you think um when he when James gunn is saying this stuff
that he's legit he's telling the truth you also think by
the way that what's the other projects if it's not his stuff what do these other things swamp thing
maybe what projects do you think i want to know tell me okay speaking saying in the comic book realm
john bernthole man i love john bernthol who doesn't love john bernthel and then john bernthel
is a punisher there's a photo here and now you're teasing punisher this is scarce franklin over dark
horizons.
Production is continuing on Daredevil, Born Again, in the wake of the creative reset of
the production.
A reset will see the new series serve as much more of a direct sequel to the Netflix
Marvel shows.
While the return of Charlie Cox as Daredevil Vincent Dinafrey was Wilson Fisk, John
Bernthal as the Punisher were confirmed by the studio.
Much of the other casting of the series has been revealed by set photos from the production.
Those include the return of Foggy, Karen Page, and Wilson
Bethel as bullseye.
Understandably, there's also been questions
about who else might be coming back. One person
who might have been teased a return
as Finn Jones as Danny Rand,
aka Iron Fist. As part of
an Instagram story, Jones posted a photo
of a travel bag of which he appears
to be packing for a trip.
Prominently on display inside of that bag is
the final issue of the Power Man
and Iron Fist comic in a
collector's case. That comic famously
includes the death of the Iron Fist character.
Additionally, a copy of the novel,
The Neverending Story is visible in the photo.
As a result, there's quickly been interpreted online
as a hint that this character could be making appearance and born again.
More direct this weekend is a new photo from Instagram,
which shows John Bernthal and his stunt double on the set of the production
in New York City during a break from filming.
And I showed a couple of them.
So this is, let me put this, well,
this is Bernthal with his finger point and it's a stunt double,
and it's got the picture of Ditto.
So they're saying, yeah, here we go, ready to go.
I think that this is a, this is why, as much as we've been tough on, all of us,
I've been tough on Marvel, and I think rightfully so.
This is why you also got to give them a little bit of credit when they go, okay, look,
whatever we were going to do with Daredevil, it was going down that same path.
When we said, no, not connecting to Netflix.
We know that you guys like that stuff, but we're doing something different.
That kind of the version you got him in Sheehulk, that's where we're going with.
and we're going to do all this stuff.
No foggy, no caring, none of those people.
We're going to do this whole thing.
People are like, well, this kind of stinks.
And then they looked at the scripts and they go, this kind of stinks.
And so they stopped.
And you got to give them credit.
You got to give them credit to where they go, okay, it's going to cost us some money,
but let's just do a sequel to this damn show.
We have it now.
It's inside the MCU.
Let's make all the damn stuff canon.
We'll put it street level.
We'll get, you know, people look, even though Echo didn't really deliver in the way that you wanted it to,
the trailers did.
And people were like, oh, you're going to do a show like this.
because the trailer made you go,
well, come on, let's go Netflix style
with this thing. And they're going Netflix style with
and they're going TV, I may, whatever it is.
This, to me,
makes a lot of sense. And you can't
bring the, and John Bernthel said it himself,
you can't bring the Punisher back and go like
PG-13 within. You can't go half-ass with you.
You've got to do what the character's meant to do.
Because if you read those comics, the Punisher does not hold back.
And he didn't hold back in the Netflix series.
I didn't see I still haven't seen the full on Punisher series but I saw what he did when he was in Daredevil
And he was great and I'm gonna watch a Punisher series don't worry I know yeah right just like shogun well guess what
Still haven't watched shogun I did watch three body problem I'm about
Four episodes in now three body problem digging it digging it I like it is a little confusing at times
But I but I know where I think I know where they're going with and I like all the
The quantum physics shit and all that stuff so it's right at my alley so
Anyway, what do you guys think of all this stuff with Bernthal?
And with the fact, I don't know anything about Iron Fist.
I just remember people not liking that show.
So I don't give a shit.
If the guys come back or not, if they're giving a redemption and you get a chance, great.
But maybe you guys feel differently about it.
Anyway, so if you guys are still, I see tons of questions coming in, guys.
Thank you.
And I even saw one, and I'll get to it from a good friend Tim Sim, which I'm surprised him.
I'm surprised today that you, you always put in it.
Every time on Mondays, you always put it in.
And you're a damn saint.
But I just thought after a sweep from the Yankees over the Astros that you wouldn't do that today.
But I was wrong.
It shows you're a better, you're a better person than me.
Doesn't mean anything, right, to beginning the season.
But still, 4-0 is pretty sweet.
It's pretty sweet.
Just saying.
I'm just saying, Tim.
I'm just saying.
Um, okay. So let's move on and then we're going to tell those questions. We've got a lot of questions. Thank you for everybody putting in the questions today. I love hearing from you guys. I love hearing from you. So we'll, I mean, I'll, I'll, I'll be on for as long as possible. And for people wondering it popped in and so where's John? John be back. I think he'll be back next week. You should be back next week. So let's get to another one. All right, here we go.
La la la la la la. The Dunder cats are on the move. Everybody knows. That's not the lyrics of the
but everybody knows.
Is that how it goes?
No, right?
Let's talk about Thundercats.
Where did I find the Thundercats story?
Oh, those are some comic book movie.
That's where it was.
I always go to, those are my sites.
I go to Dark Horizons.
I go to comic book movie.
The Thundercats running around the joint somewhere.
Will Adam Wingard's Thundercats movie be more like the 80s cartoon or the 2011 reboot?
Here's the answer.
Is it a live action?
Is it live action, I think?
It's got to be.
Comic book movies, Mark Julian.
Godzilla and Kong.
the new Empire director Adam Wingard could helm a live action Thundercats movie
his next project but is it going to be closer to the 80s cartoon or the modern 2011 reboot
you know there was one the fan favorite rank and biased cartoon series Thundercats made its
television premiere in 1985 and ran for four seasons to Schnarff totaling 130 episodes
many years later it was rebooted in 2011 for a single season 26 20 20 20 20 20 people having
sex. That's what they said. 26 episode run on Cartoon Network before being discontinued because
of poor merchandise sales. That's why you discontinue it? Poor merchandise sales. Was it a good show?
Shnarve. A 2020 reimagining of the franchise titled Thundercats Roar, which was modeled after
Teen Titans Go, also failed to catch on with viewers. Sharnaf, shnav. The franchise will be
rebooted again, this time for a live action theatrical release with Adam Wingard. Wingard boarded the project
in 2021. However, it should be noted. There's no guarantee that the Thundercats movie will be the next
film that he does. He's also signed on to do a remake of Face Off, regardless of whatever the project is.
And a new interview with Screen Rant, Wingard touched on whether his upcoming Thundercats movie will be
closer to the original or more like the reboot. He said, my version is going to be 100% the 80s version.
Yes. I've seen the rebooted animated one. But if I'm honest, the 80s one,
That's what Thundercats is to me, and that's what I'll be creating.
When I was in high school, I was so into Thundercats that I wrote this, 270-something-page screenplay on it.
It was my biggest dream growing up to make a Thundercats movie.
This is awesome.
And so here I am with the ability to actually do that.
I'm still fulfilling that dream.
When that dream started, it was well before the anime version, so that's why.
That's what I know, and that's the vibe I'm trying to do.
And if Thundercats ends up happening, which I hope it does, my version I'd want to bring to life the exact,
the exact designs from the 80s version. I want the looks of them. I don't want it to be like,
okay, it's the movie, so you got to make them more realistic. No, no, no, no. I want to bring the
cartoon and toys to life. I love this answer. I want to see the exact costumes and everything.
Recently at the premiere of New Empire, Wingard said it's been full steam ahead recently with
Thundercats and Face Off recently in terms of the script. We won't know if that's my next project
until they get to the next phase, but they're moving along well and the scripts are really amazing.
I'm so excited about what they could be. And there's, uh,
also the question of what's going to happen with the series and where things go from here.
So I'm open and keeping my options open.
We'll see.
Okay.
So I love this answer so very much because you can tell you really, really loves Thundercats.
And I'll tell you, if you asked me, what would you rather see?
Thundercats.
Face Off, I've seen Face Off.
I've seen versions of Face Off also with, you know, people have tried to do certain movies in the John Wu style and things of that nature.
It's like, it's, I don't need.
to see another face off movie it's fine if it happens okay cool who's who are the two people going to be
and maybe it's a great remake and it very well could be i'm not just pooping on it because it's a remake
but if you're going to ask me you go the you can pick what he's going to have next give him thundercast
listen to his answer thundercast and he probably loves face off just as much but thundercast let's see how
you can do it and i love that answer that means that snarf is coming in snarf's coming
schnaf, snap. He's coming.
So I'm very excited by this answer.
Panthro and the whole crew.
Can't wait to see it.
Mummer is going to be scary.
I love this answer.
Love it.
I don't know if anybody else cares, but I care.
Yeah, I am going to be coaching the Cleveland Browns.
They need me.
Throw something on the, I'm ready to go.
I found this in my closet when I was cleaning shit out,
cleaning stuff out.
I like this and I like the hat.
So you're going to coach.
I'm going to coach.
Sure.
Why not?
I'll coach.
What are you going to do?
I don't know why I'm calling you out.
Thank you.
Appreciate that.
What's this doing?
Don't worry about it.
This idiot.
Yeah, he's going to coach.
Fucking idiot can't even run a live stream.
Look at me.
I'm the best podcaster.
I'm the best.
And I keep my composure.
You won't see me yelling about a theme park.
That me.
This is all bullshit.
I love it. I love myself. I hate you. That's what it is.
I'm sitting here. Listen to this guy talking about bullshit.
You don't care. I don't care. No one cares. You pretend you care.
How are we really doing? You're just sitting back.
Sniffing your own farts. I don't have to sniffing farts. I don't fart.
But I wish that I did. I wish somebody would have built that in me, but I don't need to do that anymore.
I just sit here. And I listen to you. Fart out of your mouth.
your mouth. I'm out of here.
That guy. I don't know.
He's, um, he's taken over.
He's taken over. It's really bad.
It's bad.
He's really bad. I don't know. That guy's a real bastard.
He's a real bastard that freaking, he just comes in whenever he wants it.
It's AI, guys. That's AI.
Okay. Um, let's, let's move on to something else because I, you talk about WTF.
someone someone with WTF LOL.
I'm going to put a WTF in here that I saw this story today and it was a WTF.
No LOL connected to it, though I'll tell you that much.
And where the hell is it?
This is Alex Garland.
I love Alex Garland.
He retired from directing.
His movie hasn't even come out yet.
And everybody loves it.
He's retiring.
What the hell does that mean?
English writer, director, novelist, Alex Garland.
Got his start on screen penning scripts
four, 28 days later,
Sunshine, never let me go, and dread,
underrated movie. From there, he made
the jump to directing from his own scripts
with the TV show Dev's end.
The four films so far on that count,
X Machina, Annihilation,
Men and Civil War.
Out promoting the latter in a new feature
piece with The Guardian, Garland
made a shocking announcement. He's done
with directing. As the
piece confirms that Garland does not plan
to direct again. The writer
indicates, read an earlier interview conducting during the film shoot in which Garland
declares his intent to give up directing and retreat only writing. So they asked him,
if that interview just caught him on a bad day or is he going through with that?
Garland says, nothing's changed. I'm in a very similar state. I'm not planning to direct again
in the foreseeable future. The restriction obviously doesn't include warfare, the film that is
military advisor on Civil War Raymond Dozer is co-directing with Garland. That project cast reservation
dog's actor DeFaro Woon
Tai in the Lee roll earlier this week.
Silver War was made on a $50 million
budget, making it the most expensive
film ever made by A24.
But it's also on track for the studio's biggest opening
with early productions of a domestic opening at $21 million.
What in the world?
I would assume
that he is
he is saying
he just dealt with too much on this.
I don't enjoy doing it.
I would assume that
nowhere did he say that.
This is an assumption that he just,
I just not having fun doing it anymore.
It's a lot.
It puts me through a lot of strain.
I like writing.
I'm going to stick to writing.
Bummer.
I mean, I haven't seen Civil War yet, but bummer.
But same thing.
You don't love doing it.
more don't push it because that's when stuff happens and he didn't say he loved doing it
but it just seems like he was in a place where he just doesn't want to do it anymore i don't know isn't that
that's that's that's intense man it's garland um how do you guys feel about that yeah going out on top
you know you just maybe with civil war you just do that jordan shot you walk off the court and
just write stuff but he's also you know what was he how many how old is you i'm gonna guess i'm gonna say
that Alex Garland is 53 years old.
Let me see. Let me see.
Alex Garland age.
53. Good guess me.
Thanks. He's 53 years old.
That's young for a director.
So he,
anytime someone says at that age, I'm retired.
It's like,
it could just be a big break.
You know what I mean? It just,
for the foreseeable future, I ain't directing.
I'm just going to sit back and I ain't directed.
I'm just not doing it.
I'm going to write for a little bit.
And then, you know, in 10 years, you don't have to say coming back from retirement.
Just like, I'm going to, I'm going to direct now.
Look at James Cameron.
James Cameron, I guess he retired for, what was that?
Titanic was 90, what the hell was that?
96?
97, right?
97.
Then he came back 12 years later to do Avatar.
And then he retired again for like another 10 years, whatever was.
So it's like a break, I think more so, but I hope it's a break unless the guy never directs ever again.
Then it's then you retired.
Like Daniel Day Lewis, you retire.
So I don't know.
I don't know.
Anyway, what do you guys feel about this?
Do you think this is going to stick?
Go ahead.
Put your comments in there.
Tell me.
Okay.
So we got through, I think the major stories, if there's stuff that I left out of the stories,
then make sure you throw them into the comments.
and I'm going to start reading your questions.
You guys started, you just guys start putting in questions before I even started today.
So I thank you for that.
So there's anything that you want to talk about, any of the stories that we talked about, anything in general, anything I left out, anything you want to talk about.
Time is now.
Throw in those questions, man.
And before we move on, the other thing I want to tell you guys about, I'm always pumped when we get new people on the show, new sponsors on the show.

okay so mac weldon in general it is a really really a really
really, really wonderful company.
Because a lot of times you want something both ways, right?
Me, you know that I lost weight, but I can't lose weight and keep firing down pizza.
You can't do it.
Because we always think that looking sharp means that you got to have the starchy,
the oxfords and the stiff chinos rather than the effortless comfort.
It is possible to have it both ways.
They have light as air underwear to innovative anti-odor teas and versus.
still yet comfortable pants. It is so great what Mac Weldon is doing. They have a full range of

But then they sent me these pants. I have like, the t-shirts are so smooth. They wear them.
I'm just comfortably around the house, but I can also, if I'm going, I put on like a suit jacket
at the other day and I put it on with it and then the pants, it fit perfectly. And I had some
really comfortable sweatpants. Oh, really great. Okay, now peacocking. You guys are peacocking.

calling attention to yourselves. Mac Weldon apparel gives you understated good looks for

I can't even tell you.
Like this underwear is really comfortable.
The sweatpants for me,
I was wearing them the other day.
And I just like,
I like,
I like ones that just feel like I could go out,
whether I'm just walking the dog,
but I don't feel like,

So if you're like, oh, you know what?
I wanted to ask this asshole face a question and I forgot to do it.
And I don't have enough time.
Yeah, you do.
You have more than enough time.
Is this the first one?
I think this is the first one.
This is.
Sean Peter, Petersel.
Any chance of a Schmo's reunion with the old crew?
Probably not.
I would say that you're probably going to get, you know, Ellis will probably come in the studio
before the you know I wind up leaving and he'll be he's kind of coming to New York and stuff too so
Ellis will probably come in and do a couple shows I had lunch with Ken not too long ago but he's doing
different things now and then everybody's kind of all over do it Riley's on the show every
every Tuesday so a full on thing probably not but but definitely Ellis we'll get Ellis on soon
Mike Joyce thinking back on Godzilla 2014 it's weird to see how nimble Godzilla is
now in Godzilla and Kong.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I don't, I guess they are related, right?
Those movies are related, but that, that was the last one out of that franchise.
Clearly it's related because of Godzilla to Kong.
But that was the one where it was still kind of playing into like a serious movie.
It was trying to go for that jaw's feeling as where this movie is just pure dumb fun, the last one.
And Adam Wingard knew the assignment, if you will.
Uh, so that, yeah, I don't compare even, it's just an evolution of, of, or I guess, depending on the way you want to look at it.
But I think that, um, it, that movie starts out where they were going to go one way with how serious they took it.
And I think they were probably going down the road with that movie of trying to get into more of a tone of what Godzilla minus one ultimately did.
But then they realized, no, we're probably can't do it this way.
so let's just have some silly fun.
So yeah, it's when you compare them,
it almost seem like different movies.
Mad Sinister McCall,
favorite and least favorite streaming service.
Favorite I gotta say is probably Max.
It's probably Max.
Just because I can run into so many different movies,
like old school movies that I like to like,
I'll browse and I go,
oh, I haven't watched that in a while.
And then I, so Max,
and then maybe followed up.
Netflix I was complaining about not too long ago,
but I'm back on board with Netflix.
Netflix. Disney Plus does some great things for my kids, man. They're always occupied in that
damn at least favorite. I mean, it's not fair to say least favorite. I probably just say
one I don't use the most. It's just when Paramount Plus, I guess, like when Paramount Plus has good
stuff that I'm watching, then I'm like, whether it's the, it was 1883 and 1923 and then
the offer. Those were ones I was like, tuned into it. I don't find myself going down the,
I don't find myself doing that one that much.
If that makes sense.
Okay.
Mike Joyce again, Godzilla speared, Kong through a pyramid,
and then immediately followed that up with a suplex.
That was the best.
I think I gave it this is awesome when I saw that in the theater.
The suplex was incredible.
I mean, come on.
Yeah, of course.
At that point, when he's given suplexes,
I was having conversations with friends afterwards and going,
I don't know, the other movies,
they seemed to like,
to you have been the character.
I'm like, you've never cared about the characters in this franchise.
What are you talking about?
This is like, if I would, and I said this going into that movie,
because I've gone into those Kong movies before going,
I wonder if I'm going to care about these characters.
And then I've been disappointed because you never care about those characters.
And I'm not talking about Godzilla minus one.
So I'm at this monster verse.
You don't care about them.
You don't.
It doesn't matter if performances are good or not.
They're not trying to write for these characters.
You just want to see monkeys and lizards suplexing each other.
That's it.
Kenneth Colton, I just wanted to say, rest in peace, chance per domo.
Yeah, such a talented and charismatic young actor whose life was cut so short.
My favorite character on Gen V. Condolences to his name.
Very kind to you to say that, write that.
I agree with you.
It's horrible, man.
It just really is.
It's just such a tragic, tragic thing to happen and it just shows you how fragile life is.
You know, it's nuts.
John Bruevina, a live show with you and Star Wars Theory would be epic.
So he had asked me on before, and I told him,
I was like, it's just, and I felt so bad because I was like, yeah, I can do it.
And then especially now with the move, it is very hard for me to do other live streams, other places.
It is very hard for me.
Plus the fact, to be completely honest, I don't really love talking about Star Wars anymore.
I just don't.
When it comes to the show, like that glad I'm going to cover because I want to see how it's going to be.
And then if there's other things, I've kind of, I don't want to say I've lost my love for it,
but I'm just not in the way that when I was when in 2012,
when they announced new ones and wanted to start a weekly show when I started far,
far away and then I took the premise.
I remember, I remember this very clear.
I took this premise to Campia and I was like, I think we should do a weekly on AMC.
We should do a weekly show on Starvation.
And at the time, he was like, you think I was going to care about a weekly Star Wars show?
And I said, yes, because of the fever pitches, so I, he came up with the name Jedi Council.
But I was like, let's do, let's do a weekly show.
And he's like, let's do a pilot first to see if it works.
And if the pilot works, then we'll, like, we'll,
then we'll do a weekly show. And we started to do a weekly show after we saw the pilot hit the way that it did.
And people had a, there was this fever pitch about it and people and it was like this excitement about it.
The excitement for Star Wars is now. And it's also, it's in it's, it feels like politics, like really dirty politics also.
Like there's like it's like far right versus far left and front. I'm not saying that that's who's on both sides.
It just feels like that watching it. And I got, I got no interest in in that. I'm not saying that anybody in particular,
theories stream or anybody else sometime in the star wars in general that's what it feels like and so i
don't like really talking about it anymore i don't really it's not and and to be completely honest
the major reason is the quality's just been not great quality's not been great like and even things
that i could because i've watched the first two episodes of asoka liked it what like the aniken one
really liked one towards the end and then even and i rewatched it and i was like yeah the writing of this
show is just really not good. And it's just not, I just, I'm hoping, I'm hoping that Glyde delivers.
I really do. I will say the bad batch has been pretty good, but not enough to where I want to
talk about it anymore. I don't, it's not, it's, I just don't have that same kind of fire for it that I
used to where I wanted to talk about it. Like, you know, I wanted to talk about it. Like, you know,
I wanted to talk about, like far, far away to me still was probably my favorite Star Wars show that I had,
I had done. And then when we started doing Sith Council, that's why I kept Mike and Stefan, because the
I just like having conversations with those guys.
And when we talk about certain things inside of Star Wars and when there's stories and stuff, of course.
It's part of the movie news.
So there you go.
Okay.
Let's see.
Next one, next one, next one.
Carlton Rutter, back from Pisa.
Carlton, thank you, man, through your pictures and you're, for, and you were out, you're out of town and still sending questions, man.
It was amazing.
I'm glad you had a good time.
Gun to your head.
If you had to remake one film.
which would it be?
Citizen Kane, Star Wars,
Casablanca, Lawrence of Arabia,
Back to the Future, or Gone with the Wind.
Okay, this is tough for me because I remember,
like some of these I've seen,
like the classics I have seen,
but I don't remember a lot of them.
And a lot of these I want to revisit.
Like, love Star Wars, love Casablanca.
I just talked about this other day,
Lawrence of Arabia, I need to go.
I remember in film class,
but I've never, I don't even remember it that much.
Same thing as Citizen Kane.
Back to the Future, Gone with the Wind.
I think that you could probably get away with
if I was going to remake one of these
you can't I don't think you can't you can't remake Citizen Kane
you can't remake Star Wars you can't remake well you could
Casablanca was talked about at one point
I say you're probably going to go with Gone with the Wind or
Casablanca those are the two one of those two I would probably
choose yeah probably one of those two but I've probably
if gone with the wind's so tough because of the year I probably say
Casablanca probably Casablanca
Okay. So let's see. Moving on. Unknown D. Any advice on making movie reviews and news content like you do your channel and reacting to episodes on YouTube. The one thing I would say is this. Here's, I always like to be upfront and honest with people when if I get a question like that, even from friends, right? The thing is that myself and Mark Ellis, when we started this in 2008, when we started doing Schmo's no, end of 2008, really 2009. But when we did, we were.
were it was us it was grace randolph it was spill.com and i think fury of the film fan were the only
people that were doing movie reviews at any kind of capacity on youtube at that time there was no
christuckman there's no germany johns there was no there was nobody who was doing it at that time um
and then you do get you know superstars like johns and stuckman and those guys start coming in and
and that was and they didn't start until like 2000 i think jeremy
started in like 2010. I could be wrong, but I think so. And then you get more and more people
that continue to do it. And that was again, 14 years ago. So many people do it now. So many people
do it and reactions are doing it and everything. A lot of people do it. So the competition is a lot
harder now. That doesn't mean don't do it. That just means be aware of it and stand out.
Do something. Let your voice be the one. And you got to pay attention. I had this conversation with
somebody recently, working on a project with somebody and somebody outside of it was like,
well, I think you pay attention to the algorithm too much and you shouldn't, you can't, you can't,
you can never catch the algorithm.
I go, no, you can never catch the algorithm, but you never stop chasing it.
Because if you do, it goes that way.
And then people will then say, okay, we're going to figure out something else because we're
not seeing your stuff pop up.
and you got to figure out like how it's working thumbnails how you're doing with titles i always ask you
guys you guys like hey i these are the stories that i'm thinking about running with today if you were
going to click on something what would it be what was this title that thumbnail and i listen to you guys
usually when it's like a higher percentage that's what i go with on the thumbnail or the story that you
i always ask like what is it because what i do on another thing that i do for that community tabs for
something for you to know is that once you start building an audience and whether it's 10 people,
talk to them. Talk to those 10 people. But on the community tab, what I do is I always post like,
I'll do like an image poll. Then I'll put my, my link in there. Because for some reason, when you
post it just, you just throw the link out there with community, they don't, it doesn't push as much as it
does when it's an actual poll. So just little things like that. And just what I would say is be yourself.
don't try to do don't try to do don't try to be someone that you're not just you just be you do
your voice and let your voice be heard um okay al rencha godzilla and cong was awesome and i saw it twice
both times the theater started cheering and clapping when it was over it delivered on what i wanted
that's that's the thing that's what i said man that that is what i said in the out of the theater
and before i even saw the movie why are you going to the movie that's the question
Why are you going to the film?
What do you expect to see?
Do you expect to see a big gorilla and a big lizard fighting each other and then other things?
And then potentially you'll see a suplex and a power glove and ridiculousness.
Are you expecting to see that?
You're going to get that.
What are you expecting to see?
You're expecting to see an Oscar winner?
You're going to be disappointed.
You expected to see full-fleshed characters with an incredible script.
You're going to be disappointed.
What do you want from this movie?
If you want what it actually tells you it's going to give you in the trailer, you're going to be
satisfied.
At least most people, I thought.
Okay.
Keep and going.
Keep and going.
Thank you for everybody again, who's putting some people there to put into some questions in
there.
Really, really appreciate it.
Very, very kind of you.
I'm so excited to, a lot of times I see people who I have never seen before.
And a lot of times I see people who continue to put people who.
that I've seen time and time again.
Josh Needle.
Thoughts on the new planet of the apes trailer that dropped this morning.
The movie looks fantastic.
Cannot wait.
I cannot wait for it.
I'm not watching any more trailers.
Not seeing any more trailers.
I'm already on board.
I'm going to see the movie.
Can't wait.
Pumped to see it.
And it's one of my most anticipated of the year.
So I'm sure it's great.
But it's coming out and the movie's going to be here in like a month.
So I will be seeing it when it comes out.
I'm glad that you liked it.
And I'm glad that it got you hyped up.
I can't wait to see it.
I'm so pumped.
Okay, so yeah, Dune Part 2,
crossed in 625,
and then Bill Gaffney.
The Rock was next level next week.
I think the Netflix move means the end of the PG era.
I hope so.
Seems like they are testing waters with the language lately.
Well, the Rock seems to be testing the water language.
I know CM Punk kind of went off of it too,
and at one point Drew McIntyre was like PG, brother,
and then the Rock said, don't worry about that.
Watch this, the screaming F-bombs here left and right.
the attitude era rock people forget how ruthless the heel rock was back in the attitude era
but he that was fantastic and i loved what he did afterwards breaking k fab and how they
incorporated it into the or not breaking fiend sticking with kfib i should say not breaking it the
exact opposite of that sticking kpabe and making it seem like no this is what happened off air
he's like just because you script is is is over going to stop this the same ain't going to stop i
loved what he did there that was a pure that showed why he is one of the greatest because of
of that mentality. He's got that old school. He's got that old school mentality that I think needs to come back, needs to come back. I think that they should really start because sometimes they, one of the waters, an interview, and like, you'll be in the middle of an interview talking about their opponent, how much they love them. And then the same interview, they talk about how they're trying to be part of the story again. And it's like, it's, it's too confusing. Go back to the old school way. Go back to that old school way. And I love what the rock did there. Yeah, and I think you're right, though. I think the next.
Netflix era is going to see way more stuff like we saw last Friday, last Monday.
Mike Joyce, if you're cutting the Wednesday or Thursday show this week, can you do the
World Girl Hour with Roxy and Steph that show you did in January?
It was great.
Potentially, I realized also that I got Chris Carr coming on this week also.
So she's coming into film.
So I got to figure out.
After I get off this stream today, I have a lot to figure out because I have a UAP show I
got to put together.
I have a lot of different things I got to put together.
and I'm getting on a phone for new studio space and all this stuff too.
So I have to figure out how to make this week work.
But I did love that show with the two of them as well.
So that's also a possibility, Mike, for sure.
Absolutely is.
Okay.
Keep them going, keep and going, keep and going.
Matt's Denister McCall.
Who's louder?
The leafblower neighbor or Roxy's neighbor.
Imagine if those two got together, the noise that they could make big things to go.
Thank you.
Yeah, for real.
I would probably have to say her,
her neighbor, especially after the story that she told this week. Good Lord. The leaf blow,
we're going to miss them. I'm going to miss them on these parts. Griffith. Thank you, Griffin.
If I'm Disney, I'm throwing the bank at Greg Fraser to join the Mando movie, for real.
He has a connection to the show and has no future projects announced outside Batman 2.
What do you think? I mean, yeah, if you can get him, absolutely. Yeah, I think it's a great,
I mean, look, he, this is, he's one of the guys right now. You can get him to show.
shoot it, you do. Absolutely. I think that, I mean, that movie really, as I was just talking about it before,
if they can, if you can do another, just a really incredible Star Wars movie, a really incredible,
not hard to get people who are feeling the way that I do about it right now back on board. Because it's,
because it's there. It's all there. It just seems like right now, it's just like it's just kind of
messy. But if you can make it look as beautiful as what Greg Fraser does and then put together a really
kind of bang up story.
It's got a positive. I never, people, Star Wars
is dead. No, it's not.
It's not dead. If it was dead,
you would do, they would have no projects.
If it was dead, they would have no,
it would, they would,
they would have no movies coming out.
Dead means it ain't happening anymore and that
there's no possibility that it will make any money at all.
If you don't think that these movies will make money,
like now the excitement behind it and the fever pitch in the same way that
baseball was America's past,
time in the 50s in the 60s football overtook it um and that's what happened now and look and
marvel would be the equivalent to football but even marvelous is hurting right now so there's it's
now i think it's a reason why the movies like june and kong and all these other movies have an
opportunity now to kind of change the blockbuster again with with these movies the star wars and
Marvel kind of in this weird rut.
Someone said, wonder why I'm not going to Cinemicon,
because I'm planning for this move, and I'm going to see,
I'm also going to see Civil War on Monday,
and I have too much I got to do.
I have too much I have to do in order to get everything done.
So I'm just not going to do it.
I don't have time.
So let's keep going.
There's a lot and a lot and a lot and a lot and a lot of questions.
So I'm so excited for you guys.
Thank you so much.
Mustafa Aguín.
Hey, Christian, have you heard anything about this new Rick Grimes TV show called The Ones Who Live?
It's great. Did you ever watch The Walking Dead?
So I did. I used to cover it with Ellis back in the day.
And it was funny.
And then I started working for the company, Skybound for a bit.
I haven't watched the new show at all.
And I feel it's because I stopped watching after the, well, I don't want to spoil.
People haven't watched the show.
I plan to go back.
But I would just say the, the Negan, when Negan first came in.
Um, when he first came in that's, I think it was the last season that I watched.
And then I heard it got from Roxy.
I heard it got sniffingly better and it got really good down the line.
Um, and I'm sure it did.
And I'm sure it did.
But I feel like now, if I used to watch the show, I'd be so confused because I don't know what the hell's going on anymore.
I didn't follow the rest of that show.
So I don't even know.
I know Rick, he kind of left and he came back.
I don't, I don't even know.
So it would take too much work to catch on up.
But I hear it's great.
I hear nothing but really good stuff.
So I think someone recently said that I think they're even,
even better than the first.
Not sure.
Okay.
Murdof.
Schmodeown background music.
Whose idea was it?
Who created it?
Was it the only theme ever used?
And was it played live or added in post?
It's great.
Which background music?
It depends.
There's,
do you mean during like the actual questions and stuff?
that music came.
I mean, it was definitely my idea to put music in the back.
Where they felt like the theme song itself was like a UFC.
From the earlier early 2000s UFC idea.
And Schnepp actually had a composer that he worked with.
And I told him what I was looking for.
And he got me in touch.
And his guy got that done.
The background, I don't remember where they,
I think my editor, Aaron Wilhelm, found that music.
and we just always used it.
So for like,
we wanted to do something like that.
But yeah,
that's,
yeah,
that music wasn't played live.
It was played,
it was always done in post.
Thank you for asking.
For people who were curious about the Schmodown,
the Schmodown is Frank Janish has been working on the Schmodown archive channel now.
I mean,
it is essentially what the WWE network was.
If you,
any,
like every match,
every behind the scene thing,
everything is on that channel.
So if you ever want to go back and it's all on a playlist and everything too,
and you want to,
you have a favorite,
competitor that you like they have their own playlist it's a it was a it was it's really it's been a mission
and it's been a long long thing that that frank janish has been working on um every month he's been
updating it so you guys can go and you can check it out if you want to go revisit the the schmodel
who's your favorite character in star wars introduced under disney that's a good question for me
it's a toss up between calcastis mando and canaan those are all good ones been a fan since
the early schmo's days love what you do keep it up yeah you know what i probably i probably have to go mando
i probably have to go mando i think mando is uh to me yeah i got to go mando mando is is the mando season one
season two and what he did in that freaking butcher shop that yeah mando mando's my favorite
for sure and thank you for the kind words canaan's also pretty damn good man what they did
with canaan was awesome yeah so those are the ones that i would uh those ones that i would say
for sure. Okay. Let's keep going. Let's keep going. We got more questions. I appreciate it.
For those people, again, Roka will be back next week, which we'll probably talk about Monday will
probably be a WrestleMania recap, I would assume. Tim Sim with WrestleMania coming up this
Saturday and Sunday, how excited are you with this weekend's card and main events? This could make
or break to see if the WWE has turned the corner for the better. I think it's the best
in a series of matches, very long time.
It's the most anticipated for stories,
and they've been building the story as well in a very long time.
They used the rock the right way to hype up the program.
Now, the question is, is his rivalry with Cody going to overshadow the thing with Roman?
That's a question.
Roman's got to step up soon, do something.
You've got Monday night to do it.
You got to really want me to, do I want to see Roman versus?
Cody or don't want to see the Rock versus Cody right now because that's what it seems like.
But what kind of revenge is Cody going to have in general on the bloodline?
So that that storyline is fantastic.
The other stuff, even the stuff they've done like Bailey and the things are doing with
Gunther and Sammy and these other things.
It really is a great card all the way around.
They're building it out really nice.
And I think that what they have is a lot of eyes back on the product again.
So I think that it is, it's a, I don't know if it's maker.
break to him, but it's certainly a, we took this opportunity and we ran with it and we have and
we're continuing on our story, not just to get to WrestleMania, but to get past WrestleMania into
the future. And, you know, it's like anything else. Did they, did they take the ball and run with it
or did they make bad decisions? I don't, I just think that, I think that Triple H is creative.
I think he's in his prime right now when it comes to his creative choices. I think he's in his prime.
where if you look he's what is he 50s he's in his 50s you know when when when when Vince was
doing when the the his good creative he was in his late 40s 50s right that's when he's when he's when
when the dirty was out there height of stuff um when he got into his I mean he got he made some
really shitty calls man really shitty calls like creatively obviously other ones but but really
shitty calls creatively and and I think
he was out of touch with a lot of things and I think that that eventually hurt the product
dramatically but I think that triple H gets it and especially from a guy who's been in there
on both sides of it so we'll see we'll see okay let's keep going I think you're
hesitate of moving back to New York no I'm excited about it
um hesitant I think you're saying hesitant yeah okay let's see be you
We keep going.
Tim Sam, enjoy your World Series victory.
Fair.
Yeah, there's nothing there yet.
So like I said, I mean, we have way more than you do, but still.
But it doesn't matter.
You've won it recently so that you win, but I'm just saying,
we just beat you four times in a row.
That's all I'm saying.
It was a sweet.
There wasn't one victory for the Astros.
That's all I'm saying.
So far, their own for it.
That's all I'm saying.
So far.
So far.
My choice.
You got to watch Shogun.
It's great.
Rocksie's grandma and Poppy caught up on a one.
afternoon well wait a minute two no wait a minute can do it you can do it they're they've
earned the right they're in their 90s they've earned their right to sit around in the house and
do nothing and they're kind of they're kind of stuck in the house right now so if I was
stuck in the house and I didn't want to move around do anything I'd watch a full series too
that doesn't count come on come but I do want to see it I do I promise
all right let's see um was there cat noises someone said there's cat noises
anyway showgun is becoming the new the thing for you it really is peter parker 2288
the more people tell you to watch it the longer is before you'll watch it hope you watch it
soon i will promise i just don't know when i have to finish three body problem that's the first
thing i have to do i have to i have to figure that first um joey pedrus what does the robot
think of all the uap stuff he won't he's not like big balls he doesn't
get summoned. He just comes in. Like big balls will come in and just, you know, I call him in.
He just likes to grab the mic. The robot doesn't like that. So I don't know. I have to ask him
later on. But I'm sure he, I'm sure he likes it better than he likes us. Bill Gaffney, I think
the bot needs better help. Yeah, I do too. He's a real, he's really, really nasty. I know why all these,
all these characters are so nasty. Anyway, um, let's see. Next one. Yeah, I mean, this is true also.
we're on the outside looking in we may like garland as a director but he could just be like christian was
with cliard alive 100% yeah it's true absolutely he might you may just not like doing it
okay moving on we have more you guys keep throwing questions i'm not complaining haskell 420
yo man tv and david fourth i shout out on last week's oh thank you thank you for the david um
and david dalsmanchin shout out of course man made me tear up show gun
the best series on TV for a mile i say you are going to watch it there's one out of two so i'll get to it
in a second but yeah man because you you you sent me if you always don't know ed sends will let you know
when there's stuff going down and ed sent me this trailer for david dal smelanchin's movie and i told
david about it when i interviewed him and david gave him a big thank you for it
uh ed follows up the first episode piqued your interest of shogun two hooks you in it's stellar
the roman rain stock on a and e is awesome i heard that the new bray wyatt doc is beautiful and sad
to see on peacock yeah i i i saw all the advertisements for that and i'm it's just it's just a matter of
trying to figure out the time to watch all this stuff yeah uh the hunt for gellum you're moving to the
city or the burbs i'd rather not say and then that was from the hunting for the gillam and then
bamm 86 three body problem is cool but it is nothing on foundation and the expanse i hope you're
not waiting for roxy to inform you of good sci-fi tv no i i make my own decisions on sci-fi
TV man. I have my own ideas and and thoughts of what I like about it. But I'm sure it's I'm sure it's
not as good as those two. I mean, maybe I heard great things about both of those shows, Foundation
and Expans. And I'm sure. But you're remember the quantum physics side of it and all the shit that
I've been covering on Tuesdays like it's to me, it's just something that I'm trying to look at it
different, different lenses watching it. So that's why I'm watching that show. And I'm already and I'm
hooked on the story. I'm hooked on the story so far. And then I'm going to get
Shogun. That's my, that's my, that's my, that's my deal. That's what I've been telling myself anyway.
Ed boy movies. Is this the last one? This might be the last one. Ed boy movies.
I'll be doing well, Christian. Do you think Thundercats would do well with an X-Men 97-style
treatment, old animation style? I mean, maybe, but I think, look, if you got somebody that's
going to do a live-action version of it, and go for it. I mean, that's, that's what I want to
see. I want to see the live-action version, more so than the old-school animation, to be honest.
groove.
You are now aware that you cannot say Irish Wish Watch.
How to be done today.
Awesome stream and can't wait for UAP tomorrow.
I don't know if I understand that.
I'm sure that there's something more to it,
but I don't think I get it.
But thank you.
And yeah, UAP, it's tomorrow.
That is what I'm trying to figure out because I have a guest
that I'm going to record an interview.
I don't know if I'm going to put it on this week or next week.
So I got to figure it out.
I have a lot to figure out when I get off the stream.
Ed Boy movies again.
Also, I get there's a sort of, there's a sort of market for remakes, which generally don't
do good.
Hollywood is so dry of original content or minus one kind of thing.
But when people say that, I got to tell you, and I say this not to be a dick to you, but
you're wrong.
People say this that it's so dry of original content.
There is tons and tons and tons and tons of.
original content. The question is, have you found it? There are tons of original content. Now,
if you're going to follow up with saying that Hollywood traditionally and the movie studios
traditionally put the marketing and the money behind a lot of the remakes that they do and a lot of
the non-original stuff, marketing pushes towards them, I'm not going to disagree with you.
There's tons of original content. There's tons of independent films. There's tons of new shows
and new series from this. The original content thing, and you're not.
not the only person that says it. It is a, it is a thing that people say all the time that is wrong.
There is tons of original content that is made every day. Small, I mean, look, shit, look at Roxy's,
Roxy's movie, you know, always Lola, original film. There's original films all of the time,
all of the time. But your marketing conversation is a different conversation.
So, let's keep going. Jay West, where does Godzilla and Kong
go next space Godzilla I mean I think Wingard said that there is one more movie that he wants to do
inside of the trilogy so um and I okay now listen I know a lot of times we try to goof around on the show
and we try to have fun and I know sometimes we have to get serious and I apologize for getting
so serious after kind of for the most part a goofy show but I have to get serious and Zeelander
doesn't even put a super chat just
puts in something that needs to be talked about, who says, I farted.
Congratulations.
And I hope that everything's okay with you.
I hope you cleaned it out.
All right, Carlton Rudder, with your upcoming move to New York City,
will there be a breaking content, which is understandable, of course, all the best to your
family for the move?
No, it will not be.
I have timed it out.
And one of my goals is that I'm going to make sure that we still have something set up here
while we're moving stuff over.
And there'll be, you know, it'll be like a limited.
studio here. But it's one of the things that I'm going to do. And I'm going to talk to you guys
about it too. Like what the one thing I want to try to do is that we're going to try to,
someone said make an Amazon list. We're going to do that for sure. We're going to do some stuff
to where obviously when you make a move like this, you have your own budget and you have things
too. And I'm going to have that. And I'm going to also say, hey, you guys want a chance to do
this, put this in there. I call these lights, these lights that are hanging up here. We call these
Nate lights. First rate Nate got us these lights. And we call them the first rate name them. We'll name
things in the studio. We'll do those types of things. Um, but we'll build stuff out as we're,
as we're, you know, building out whatever the space is. That's the other thing I got to do
today. I got to confirm the space and where we're going to move the studio to. But as far as
content, no, we'll be doing the content net. And that's the other thing that people don't realize.
The majority of the stuff that performs the best on this channel, right now is UAP Tuesday.
And I would say a majority of that, a lot of episodes have been virtual with myself and Pavel,
myself and Peter and then Riley comes into studio, then he'll do virtual.
So that's not really going to change.
The Roka show doesn't really change.
The only ones are the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday show, because out of the theater
reactions, I'll be doing them, going to all the screenings.
So I'll be going to all the screenings still.
Out of the theater reactions, single reviews, all that stuff.
And then nothing really is changing too much, except the fact that we're going to do a few,
I'm going to use that new program for the other shows.
And then I'm going to have new, you're going to meet new people.
because Matt Sarah and I are going to do a show together.
And then we're going to do,
and then I've got some other people coming in.
You're going to meet some new people, some New York peeps.
So it's going to be an exciting time for sure.
Okay, let's keep going.
I think there's more.
I think there's more.
Maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe there is no more.
Is that it?
Oh, did I, I got to change the title on my newest short?
What does it say?
I must have done something different.
Hayden Center.
Christian, the channel's growing and growing.
Now at 242 subs, thanks for everything you do.
Congratulations, Hayden.
That's awesome.
That's what you got to do.
You got to just keep going.
Keep pushing, Hayden.
And you, I mean, that's a good number, man.
Good for you.
Future Millionaire.
I love that name.
It's the best.
Please do a live stream with much of the cash you can before you leave from New York.
Yeah, maybe we'll do like one, what I can do.
And I think with that program that I have, I have to see how many people I can include inside of it,
maybe do like one big thing we're going to do.
And the other thing we are going to do.
do is we're probably going to do a comedy show, kind of going away,
coming to the Mark Ellis and I are going to do together,
that once we put those tickets on sale and we find a location,
we'll tell everybody.
So if you want to come on out to it, you can.
But I'll let you know when that happens.
Jay West, if Disney asked you to be the head of Lucas film,
would you take the gig and where would you take the Star Wars franchise that would
excite the fandom?
So it depends, right?
if I knew obviously definitely I wanted to be one person doing it.
If I had the team that I could pick for sure, if I had, you know, who was an idea,
where I would take it is I would adapt the novels and not just the kind of novels.
I would adapt the old school novels.
I would turn some of the old school novels into television shows.
I would turn some of the novels into full on movies.
and I would do different time periods in the same way that they're trying to now,
but to instead of just, I would adapt the novels.
That's what I would tell you.
I would adapt the novels and I would make, and the TV episodes,
I couldn't believe it.
I said somebody pushing back on the 30-minute episode thing.
I can't believe it.
I can't believe that anybody is happy about 30-minute episodes on the accolade.
That would also be a thing.
at the television shows would be 45 minutes to an hour dramas,
but 45 minutes to an hour minimum.
So yeah, that's it.
But no, I wouldn't take that dick.
Probably not.
Okay, let's see.
Sunday Joe.
Possible future, invincible spoiler talk.
If I ever watch it, which is kind of, I think, a common answer here.
I haven't seen it, so probably not.
Okay, T.J. Darling, shootings from Talley.
You're a great inspiration from a fellow FSU alum.
Thank you.
What is your favorite original soundtrack,
not the score for a film?
This is not a fair answer right now
because I've been listening to the RAD soundtrack in Loop.
And I'd even music that you condense to.
It's 80s.
Get ready to break the ice.
Send me an angel.
So is it my favorite?
No,
but it's the one that's playing in here right now, TJ.
That's what's playing in my head right now.
So that's the answer I got to give you.
Music that you can dance to.
Okay. Clone Force 99.
Austin and Sina Easter egg in the back of the truck
during a rock beat down on Koi on Koi.
Yeah, Quay got his ass kicked.
On Cody and WWE obviously did that on purpose.
And even John Roker said it on X.
I saw that.
I try not to read too much on the Easter egg stuff too.
It is interesting that they chose to be there.
It would be a major moment.
It'd be a major moment if they had the rock, if they had, if they keep the rock heel,
if they keep them heel, they could probably get a lot of business.
I was convinced that they were going to turn them face and then go Roman versus the rock at
SummerSlam.
But I don't know, you might be, you might get a lot more juice at a Cody versus the rock at
SummerSlam.
You might get a lot more juice out of that.
And if you can get the stone cold and, and, uh, and Sina involved in it,
it would be a great Easter egg.
It'd be great if they did it that way, for sure.
possible. I love the theories.
I love that people are actually reading that much into it.
Jacob Fleck, have you ever watched or heard about Quiet on set,
the documentary about all the shit that went on Nicolode in the late 90s and early 2000s?
So, Jacob, on Thursdays, which I highly recommend for people who aren't watching the Thursday show,
you should, because Thursday, Roxie Shrier goes and she puts in a lot of work for the
recommendations on TV.
And at the end of the show, she always gives like between five to ten recommendations on television
shows that she's watching that you should be watching or in general maybe you shouldn't be watching
but one of the ones that she recommended was quiet and set and how just devastating it was in general
but she'd kind of give a full breakdown on it so this past thursday's episode she covered it so you
want to check that one out um but yeah i heard about it and it's just what i said when i i don't know
if i could watch it i think it's an important documentary to have um it's hard for me to watch
those it's hard for me i'll read about them but it's hard for me to watch them um because it's uh it's just
the the the taking advantage of of kids that way and then the the the that both nicolodeon
responded to it it's just it's just it's dirty is really dirty and gross and um it's hard for me
to watch it but uh but important very important okay ed boy moot good luck on the move to stressful
stuff across the country you ain't lying want to visit the city again but here it's getting crazy
maybe bronx or queens um yeah city right now is is uh is a is a real shi
shit show i'll say that so um yeah they got to clean the city up i just say that i won't be i won't be
going to the city won't be moving the city um but i'll be going to the city so screenings and stuff
but yeah thank you it is definitely that that's what i'm saying it's one of the reasons why we wanted
to do this we're going to try to do something and you guys can tell me when we're when we're coming up
with ideas about the studio and the things that we come up with brett and i are coming up with plans you can say
no, I don't want to contribute that way or no, you guys shouldn't do that.
Maybe try this or open for it.
It's all, like the first time we stream from the new studio will be exciting.
You know what I mean?
Like we're going to do like a lot of new things and a lot of fun things.
Brett will be there the first time we stream from it too because he's going to come.
We're going to go two different times to go set up and really get it working.
And then Brett will be.
The idea is that we can just bring Brett in a lot of different times to be in studio.
So Luke Skywanker.
when you move to New York, you should go to the bonfire.
I don't know what that is.
Tell me about it.
Renee Reyes.
Christian, you don't need to watch showgun.
The hype is overrated.
Wow, first person I've heard say this, right?
Especially three to four, really turned me off to the show.
Wow.
Renée, you're the only person I've heard to say that thus far.
Interesting.
Okay.
Well, but I still going to see it.
Still going to see.
Okay, let's see.
Of course, I'm going to miss.
People ask me, I'm going to miss the L.A. Peeps.
Of course.
But that's what I'm telling you.
Like this is the thing.
You have to understand that I was, if I was in the place that I was in two years ago,
with I still think besides the pandemic, I, well, the pandemic being the major reason
why it happened in the first place, I feel like streaming really destroyed or virtual
really destroyed the Shmoda, destroyed it.
Because that game was not meant for virtual.
So I started to really, and then S-E-N, we would have five people.
on the show with S-E-N and it was and I hated it because it just was so it was so messy and it was
stream yard it was hey I hated and so when I even considered it with moving I was like well I don't know
I'd have to have a better program and then I started testing out this program that I've been using
and I love it because I can move OBS and you can't like for me it's like okay do I can I talk to
people that the way I got to listen to it is when I'm hosting it I got to listen to people when
I'm switching the thing and I'm having the conversation
does it feel like if I go back and forth with the camera shots
if I'm having a conversation with them as if I'm sitting next to him.
And it does.
It doesn't when I'm on streamer.
Streamer the way it's got to switch here and you got to do this stupid thing
with the thing on the bottom and the shot.
I can't stand it.
But if I can kill,
you still use my OBS and they got to have good mics and we're going to set up
with better cameras and all that.
You won't even notice.
But yes,
missing people,
of course.
Why not?
No,
no,
no.
Well,
no.
is PLD said my PLD my own guy says it in the stream says uh I have to get used to scheduling
you in my home time zone no no I'm not changing the time the same it's gonna you got to understand
now it's for me I wake up in the morning I got to be I can drop my kids off to school and then I got
I start I start moving I can take a little bit of a break I don't got this I don't need to get I
won't have to get my shows up until 12 p.m. now instead of 9 a. So you ain't changing I ain't changing
ain't changing.
So Kingsport, stand up with my boy, Ken.
Congrats I'm coming home.
Thank you, man.
Yeah, Ken will probably be on that show.
Ken will probably be on that show.
I asked them too when I talk to him.
Oh, man, these are always hard questions, Tom Gunn.
Your five personal action movie picks?
I mean, I'm just going to, the ones that come to my head.
The ones that come to my head.
Die Hard.
Lethal weapon one.
Terminator one.
Rambo
Part 2
and the Matrix.
Those are just five that come to my head.
That doesn't mean five favorite.
Those are just ones that came to my head.
Okay.
Let's see.
What else?
Oh, they got more.
Radiator Forever.
Okay.
Rubber suit Godzilla was my childhood hero.
Fuck yeah. Why not?
Oh, so the bonfire is a comedy show.
in the series. But Big J. Ogerson. Okay. Thank you. AMC. Lincoln Square. IMAX. 70-70 millimeter laser in New York is crazy. Okay, good to know. Yeah, I'm excited to, I'm excited to be back. And, and that's the, what's funny is that I told, so my friend Ash Croson, who I love him. You guys don't know, Ash, she's, she's, she moderates a bunch of panels and does, I mean, she's, she's a, she's a baller. She's fantastic. One of the greatest people you know. And I saw her at a screening recent.
And I said to you know, I'm moving back to New York and she said, she said, no, she said, no.
And then she looked at me. She goes, I mean, you belong there, but no. And I was like, yeah,
and that's what people have been saying. I mean, I, and I looked and I was talking Josh Horowitz,
who's my buddy of mine, I'm going to do some stuff with Josh Horowitz. And I'm, and like,
I've got so many connections, so many friends there and family there, too, that it's like,
it's just feels like, I feel like the show's going to thrive there way more, to be honest with you.
I feel like LA's done its thing.
Like it's done its thing.
And then the fact, because of virtual, you know, I'm able to, and because by putting my
Winston and Coy in the same room together while I'm on in it, giving them a good camera,
putting them in a good, in a good place to get good quality sound in camera.
And then the same with me.
That was most of, that's very important.
Same with, with Roxy and Brett.
And so it was Brett, Brett's the man.
Brett's the man.
Brett's going to be the one who,
and he said,
I'm going to make sure that everybody's set up perfectly out here,
and I'm going to go and set up their cameras and get their lighting right.
And then,
like,
it's not going to be,
you know,
bedroom shooting stuff because I,
trust me,
I'm as aware of that as you are.
You don't want to do,
when you see streaming shows and someone's doing something from the bedroom
and you got a cat in the background.
I hate that shit.
I hate it.
I want it.
It's going to be a professional looking show.
We're going to get it completely right.
So don't worry.
But I,
don't which ones which one so so funny i see i hate the show that he creates for i don't hate a big big
thing at all i you got like when it's me stuff that i've done completely in general when it comes like
schmowdown never never hated it hated what happened to it because of the pandemic hated schmodeown
no clire live was never really my show i created it but i wasn't the one i wasn't like i it wasn't
I didn't own it.
It wasn't my show.
Jedi Council wasn't my show.
I created it, you know, but it wasn't my show.
But yeah, and it's the stuff that I had in my, in my world, like S-E-N-Live, because
same thing.
We started in studio.
And because of, you know, when it came to robots and all that kind of stuff, it's just
harder to do.
But, all right, let me do this here.
So Sunday, Joe.
ready for the fantastic New York City food.
Yes, I am very much so.
I think that's it.
But yeah, and we're close to the family, a bunch of other things.
So we're excited.
Thank you guys for joining us here today.
Appreciate it.
As I said, if you want to start helping us out, one way to do that, that you can.
It's like I said, get something for yourself.
I put all of our sponsors.
They're all in the description of the video.
And they're all going to be the length comment.
And that helps out the show.
I tell you that every single time.
Like, okay, today, you know what?
I'm going to buy myself something, but I'm going to use the code for the big thing.
That helps.
That helps towards the move.
It helps everything.
So do it.
Thanks for joining us here today.
And we will see you very, very soon.
Appreciate it.
See you on the flip sign.
Bye.
