We'll talk about said film, but we'll also talk about the news that not only have we been talking about in this channel, but people are even asking the stars about the box office side of it.

It was number one, but for $170 million, movie. Was it the kind of opening that normally or not really, you know, talks of a success? We'll talk about that. I got a chance yesterday to go to the After the Hunt press conference. So I'll talk a little bit more about the cast talking about it, how that was all set up and I'll play a clip and show some picks. A few other things going on, Master of the Universe.

There's a trailer description. Star Wars Starfighter. There's some early details. There's a rumor of who the new cast is from Miami Vice. So man, oh man, what a show with the reunion, myself and John Stephen Roker. That's right, everybody. It's a Christian Arloff show. Let's do it.

Ready? Yeah, me too. Here we go. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to the show. Good to have you here. probably a good weekend for you unless you're a Mets fan. But other than that, I think you're probably having a good day. Thanks for being here.

Appreciate it. And joining me on the show, John, Stephen, Roga. Hello. What's going on with your blurry footage? You know, is it really still? I don't know why. I mean, I got everything going here. I got the Ethernet cord connected and everything.

I don't know. Maybe you'll kick back in. By the way, Soto is Spanish for not making the playoffs. That's what Soto is. Yeah, Suck it won, Soto. I saw a great. AI video. I'm just going, what was, I mean, I'll actually play the audio.

Play the audio. I sent it to all my met friends and they were like too soon, too soon, but it was just right, in my opinion. I'll play, this is the audio that I saw. Enjoy that money. Obviously, this is, this is very tough for me, but I have decided to forego my $700 million and retire from baseball because I can't be spending the rest of my career playing for this shit team.

a ditty party and get oiled up then spend a decade playing for this franchise full ditty by the way dude it looked like he was doing it's scary how how accurate they're like too soon too soon I was like you spend that kind of money it's not too soon um you try to fly close to the sun you saw what you can't and the giant new york giants are good yesterday jackson dart revitalizing that team some big injuries on the game, but whatever. But nonetheless, it was a good weekend. I had a, Saturday was my

little one's birthday. Oh, congratulations. Happy birthday. He did a birthday. It was fun. You know, he did some bowling stuff. Dude, managing 20 kids, because she had, we had moved. So there was kids from her old school into this new school and then

managing these, you're responsible for these people's children. So my wife and you take that side, I take that sign. We're watching everybody making sure that, you know, then these kids are running. around playing games and I'm like holy shit I was like next time I was just got her some more presents no no parties

um but anyway just have AI kids hey I'm going to and then yesterday I got a chance to cover the after the hunt press conference yeah which was which was great I tried to get an interview didn't necessarily get the interview but I got I got a question out there to both

Julia Roberts and AO and I'll tell you man you know it's I was gonna I'm a little bit bummed with myself Okay. I had a good opening bit that I didn't do. Because I literally sat in the front row. Yeah, all the pictures. They're right. And I'll show some of the photos in a second with a little bit of a clip. But I asked, I liked my question, but I was going to open up with, because you know the big controversy that had happened with that ridiculous reporter who asked A.O. about.

Yes. When she said, this question is for Julia and Andrew and only Julia and Andrew about Black Lives Matter and everything. And how is AO not the first person you asked about this particular question? She, and she rightfully so answered it first. And it was this big viral moment every was talking about it. I was really going to start it and go, my question is for AO and only Ayo. I was going to do that. And I think she would have-

You might have nailed it. I would have nailed it. I know that I would have nailed it, but I left it alone. And I just got the question. The first thing I did actually was thank Luca and Nora for writing the movie. I said it was an important conversation. I'm glad that they did it. And I thanked them and I said the question was actually for AO and Julia.

And the question was basically and essentially how this topic was these generations are at ends with each other, whether it's millennials, Generation X, Gen Z. In prepping for the role, were there any topics that both her and were going over that they fundamentally disagreed on in order to and get into it? And it was a pretty detailed answer on both of them. They both, and A.O. seemed to really like the questions. So we both, so Julie went first and AO.N. That footage I didn't get because I was, well, because I didn't want to do this as I'm asking the question. You know what I mean? So like I waited and hopefully that there's some, there's some stuff that comes out of them waiting.

But this is some of the photos. I mean, like you say, you saw some of the photos. I mean, this is how close I was. I mean, it was that close. I'm surprised about shaking. you're out of focus from the I had somebody next to me take it I pretended to like that. So

there's Julian and Luca the screenwriter Nora. She was really she was she was solid as well and then that's the full cast Michael Stolberg was there. Oh Stolberg is great. Yeah he's really good. And then the video itself this was a question that was asked

and Julie was talking about working with Luca and this is what she said. Jump right into it and do it with Luca in this wonderful cast? Well, I hate sitting next to Luca only when I have to talk about Luca. Otherwise, I really enjoy it. But it's so fun getting to be in the orbit of someone who's so interested in people and curious and in love with why we do the things we do or don't.

And so talking to him about Alma, who was so foreign and complicated and challenging to me, he made me feel so excited at the possibilities of this kind of portrayal, but deeply encouraged and supported and just was believing in me before I even knew what we were doing. I mean, it was the kind of thing where it was like a freight train. This was the fastest anything has ever happened and it was almost like if he would start to see the panic or the doubt in my eyes and I'd say, you know, Luca, no, come on, come and we just keep going. And then as the cast was developing and evolving and it just was turning into the dream

dream scenario and it maintained itself through to the last day of filming. It was tremendous. How about that? I don't know. Hold on, sir. It's eye his reaction. Yeah, she was, she was great, by the way. Of course.

I was great. What happened with the, is Luke still in here? No, he's gone. I got to get our lower third back. I know what happened. Where is John? Good answer.

It was great. And there was quite a few. I mean, it was, it was a long conference. It was a beautiful room. I forgot the name the hotel. But so we, I got there. I got there fairly earlier. I was talking one of the security guys.

Great, dude. What a story. which I wanted to get this card. Really like this story. He was like 18 years old, recruited out of high school and like a non-official military guy that was working for the military on a non-official. At 18 years old,

and he was basically working with government jobs and then was picked up by a producer who liked the way he was like clocking people in the back of the lines and watching. So he's been working, he's our ageing. Oh, wow. Working these things for that long. I think he was on Stolberg.

But anyway, I was talking to, that guy for a bit was there. And then I went downstairs and just sat down and like it was just a really relaxing atmosphere. And it was not that many critics, I know, 25 maybe. Oh, wow. Maybe 30. I don't know.

It was smaller, smaller little area, but they were all seen. I mean, it was, they made a joke about it. They just said how they were impressed with all the like intelligent questions that were asked. And it was, it was great. Lucas answers were awesome. And, and what I liked it, because at first everybody's bombarding, Robert's with me right but then it started shift to to A.O. and it started to shift to and like I think

I felt bad but I think Stolberg and Nora got the short end of the stick obviously in my head I'm going at this point you probably you probably used to it right oh sure and whatever this is all part of the game so you're just and you know if you're doing with Julia Roberts you're not going to go Mr. Stoolberg tell me about boardwalk empire like they're not like you know right and he's and but he's such a pro in the When he did take his moments, he nailed them. Like there was one point he started singing in the middle. I got the tail end of it, which is great. He started singing the song and everybody's like, they're waving back.

It was a really, you can tell that the crew, you can tell they really enjoyed working with each other. And he was both Lucas talking about how he wants to do a movie with the entire cast, again, a different movie. Oh, wow. He wants to do a whole thing with them. There was a thing I posted on my Instagram about somebody, a guy asked a question about, about, Andrew Garfield calling Julia a national a national, a national, And she responded to that. And it was like, you can tell the care they all had it for each other.

And do you see the movie yet? Not yet. No. There's no screenings down here yet. When is it coming out? Limited. It's on the 10th of October. And then wide release on the 17th.

Maybe I've got a screening coming up. So yeah, here we go. Yeah. Press screening. It'll be, yeah, yeah, yeah. I haven't seen it yet. So I'm so curious to see what you think about it. Because I'm shocked with it.

I honestly think it's because people don't like to be to have opposite, opposite views in the way that like there's, it's not like it's like it's palsy. It goes after certain things and it goes like, okay, it doesn't give you really clear. You're, you have to decide on what you believe. Right. Like, well, you know, we're supposed to feel this way, so you should feel that way. It's like, no. That movie doubt where you're like at the end, did he or didn't he? Did that happen?

Did it not happen? What do you feel? Right. Right. And it's, but it's, but it's more about like, you know, that you have this whole, like, you're really representing three different kind of generational points of view. And how they see it. And how you see it. And how you see it. And the conversation, I thought I'm, I'm really, it stands at a 47 around tomatoes. I think that's crazy. I think it's crazy. Like, yeah, because I was, I went to go see it and I'm going, okay, maybe it's just going to be the performance. That's good. I was riveted by the, by the whole thing. Yeah. It might, it might, this is the thing that I'm kind of, uh, in a weird place about lately. It's like, it's like, Like these, like what we're seeing the over the top praise, which we'll get to, I know, for a while after another. Like, I said this on Hot Mike the other day.

I was like it feels like some critics are wrapping in their politics into their reviews. Yes, I agree. And they're becoming like anything that agrees with me is the greatest thing ever since the dawn of film. And then anything that challenges my points of view on this. I think it's confusing. It's muddled. It's not really that great. I agree with you more.

Yeah, it's weird. Like it's weird. I saw a review. Someone said, like, bad messaging. I'm like, what do you think in the movie? You don't agree on the messaging of the movie, because it's probably as a opposing view to you. What did you think of the movie? And I didn't see that. It's a bad messaging. It's like, yeah. It's becoming frustrating. Really.

You're really frustrating. I loved their answers. I loved the cast. And I really, really enjoyed the movie. So anyway, I mean, like I said, I'm putting out the footage like this. and put other clips maybe throughout the week. I don't know, but either way, that movie comes out pretty soon. And that's it. So make sure you go check it out. And thank you to, and thank you to Amazon for inviting me. I was happy that they did.

Yeah, congratulations, man. I'm glad you're getting more inroads there in NYC. Yeah, I mean, it was, dude, it was a breeze to get there. A breeze. Like I was, I didn't really want to work on Sunday because I wanted to be with the family. But, you know, my wife said, got to do this one. Yeah, of course. Yeah. So, and, and I went and I train, took the train in, quick subway ride right to the hotel. Yeah. Maybe a two-minute walk from the thing. Did the interview,

walked out of the press conference. Julia shoulder blocked me, by the way. It was on the way, like, for real. Like, not, not an aggressive when she was walking, passage. I was like, I was like, totally cool with that. And then so I, and then I jumped on a subway, head out, headed out. to back and it was i was it took oh the whole thing was like four hours 10 minutes from one from when i left did the conference went back easy easy so good um anyway yeah what do you guys think about the movie in general you're gonna see you're gonna check it out uh had you heard about it besides just on my show uh put your thoughts in there let me know all right we got some other things and you know you talked about there's certain movies we'll go into box office and in just a bit um you know we

We are, and I, this is why I'm glad. And I'm sorry that I haven't been on the Monday show. I've been going to, like, screenings and stuff. So I've been, I've been missing, shooting the shit with you. And I think that right now is definitely the time we're going to even do more of that. Because did you, I know you also have access to, like, the critics' choice. Yeah. Dude, I made, I made a vow to myself that I'm going to watch, like, everything this year.

Yeah, yeah. And so the ballad of, what was it called? The Ballad of Wallace Island. Yeah. Great movie. Yep. 100%. 97% I think on Rotten Tomatoes is just completely flew under the radar.

Wow. It's a wonderful film. What a sweet movie. Yeah. I was like, when I watched it, I start watching, I'm like, oh, it's going to be some goofy thing. I'm like, what is this? I'm like, okay, this guy's going to annoy me quick. I fell in love with that dude. He was great.

Yeah. He was great. And it was like, what a sweet movie. I had never really heard of it before. It came out earlier this year. Yeah. Gary Mulligan, who produced it has a, and I loved her arc. I love it where I thought it was going to be predictable, where it was, I thought it was

be predictable where it goes. It isn't. Really sweet story. Like a nice movie to watch. She promoted it. She pushed it. She was, you know, it's one of these smaller British films that, you know, sometimes they don't always break here in the States. And so she worked really hard to get it across the line. And it was reviewed really well.

It just didn't get that kind of push from the audience and repeating, repeat out of box office. So, but yes, people are discovering it's a nice little gem of a movie for sure. It really is. I'm so glad. I mean, like, so there was that the other one I'm going to, to watch his dog man i missed that in the theater oh yeah the animated one i don't know the one thing i say i don't know if i'm to catch up on all of them because there's so many of the documentaries there's just so many of them i tried to watch i watched the i watched the m&m one the stand one

i watched that one about the little league world series which was great yeah um i watched the thing about the the the skateboarders in in early uh in new york city the 90s that was really good yeah um i'm trying thing. I watched like two other docs. I watched, oh, one doc was just about like about rocks. It was just rocks and the architect. It was like, oh, the archer somebody. And the guys, you see the architect maybe 15 minutes at the entire two-hour movie. The rest of it is just rocks falling. And I was like, oh, okay. So I'm going to watch the majority of the screen, the scripted stuff. Oh, yeah. I'll try to get as much to the documentaries as I can. But I'll probably watch the ones that are nominated when it comes down to it. Yeah, I'm trying to finish the year myself with like 30

review 30 more reviews. Like I'm with you. You know, no matter whether, whether there's a view count or not, I just want to log those on channel. I think I'm going to do this. I think what I'm going to do is like immediate reactions to the movies. Like, you know, like our immediate review. Like so like for for ballot, I'll probably do that after. And then I'll do, you know, like a, if it gets thousand, two thousand views, I don't care. I just want to be so that way people can see. Yeah. Stuff that's coming out. How many people when I'm talking right now, I've actually heard that that movie? And what is it is a

A Ballad of What? Ballad of Wallace Island. I think it's on Peacock. I think it's on people can stream it. Yeah. Has anybody heard of that movie? Because I hadn't heard about it until I saw it. What is this?

I said, I don't want to watch it. Ballot of Wallace Island was great. I mean, I guess the guy who wrote the original music, he's like the star of it. So I'm curious if anybody had heard about that. The other thing I watched was something, you've seen the whole series, I think. Task. Oh, yeah. You watch the whole series?

Yeah, we ripped through it in two days, all seven episodes. Oh, it's only seven. Okay, that makes more sense now because we, we, I think we, we just hit episode three. Are we on four maybe? You might be on four. And I was like, wow, they're really getting to the nitty gritty of this investigation. And then you saying seven, I was like, well, that makes sense. It's kind of like a seven-hour movie.

But Tats is great. And that, and that dude, I mean, not Mark Ruffel, obviously, the guy from, from House of the Dragon. No, no. I'm Telfrey. Yeah. Helfrie from, he was in Ozark. Yeah. That dude, I feel about him kind of the same way I feel about Sklnard in this.

Oh, I thought that, you're so funny you say that. I thought the same thing when I was watching the show that like this guy should be up for some of these dark. The characters. Yeah. I guess he was in Marvel. He was in the, not Luke Cage, but he was in something, he was in one of those things. Was he in Iron Fist? I think it was an Iron Fist.

He was in something, nothing I saw. but I'm glad I never saw him in that because the first thing I ever discovered him from was Ozark. I think he's that he that dude is a natural like he's I don't want to call him an actor because to me an actor is like when you try it when you try like you see someone there acting. I don't see that guy acting. I see that guy living. Like when he's when he's in the roles, you see it in his eyes. Yeah. Like he he he's listening.

He's he that that dude is talented. He is very, very good. He's made his bones. He's from Jersey. he's from Howell, New Jersey, and he went and studied in London at the Globe Theater to establish himself as an actor and then got on to Soaps, won multiple Emmys on Soaps to Theater, and then slowly but surely has been kind of moving his way up the chain. And I agree with you. I hope this series finally gets him in front of people's faces to show what he can really do because he's kind of moved into leading man status now. I think so. I think the fact that he mean, look, he stood out in Ozark, but this is like you're really asking him to, okay we'll get mark ruffalo and then you that's really who it's kind of and and i look i love ruffalo in this series but i'm it's not one of those things sometimes you watch series like okay the cool that that that that story's fine but let's get back to the reflo's story i'm like i'm almost feeling

i want to see more his story yeah you know because he's just so damn good and he makes and and they've said it the creator said it too that he never there's no clear cut good and bad in this it's human you know yeah that's what makes it so interesting and even though what's face from Coda. She's fantastic as well with that mullet of hers. If you recognized her, she's the lead girl. That's right. She's excellent. She's excellent in the show.

All the character actors, they got to be in the show are. Right. Effing phenomenal, man. Really good. The dad from Wednesday. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Her playing in it. It's a really good show. The Guardian. Fabian Frank Lank. And I didn't even realize that

until the other day. And I watched that show all the time. And the other one I've been watching. Do you watch it's a Black Rabbit? I haven't started that yet. Jeff says, Jeff said he liked it, but the reviews haven't been 100% great, so I'm on the fence on it. You like it? Don't love Jew law's accent. The American accent. It's not the American accent. The American accent is fine. He's trying to, he's trying to do New York, and it sounds like he's trying to do a 1920s movie New York. It's terrible. It's terrible. The New York accent is terrible. He's good in the show,

but the accent is terrible. All right. But I like the show, and Jason Bateman is phenomenal in it. I've only seen an episode and a half, so I got to, I got to finish it. to see if maybe I'm on with everyone else saying it's just okay. I don't know what the reviews have been. It's been like, I think it's 70, 80% I think on Rotten Tomatoes. Okay. My favorite Bateman is messed up Bateman. That's my favorite bait.

You know, I know. Challenge and damaged. Yes, yes. Which is why I want to watch Ozark because so many people say it's great. You've never seen it. Never seen it. So I got to watch it. He's definitely more messed up in a different way.

in this show. Oh, gotcha. Yeah. He's more, like, he's Jason, he's like,

in the, in Ozark, he's like a guy that gets him, gets into trouble, but he's like a smart, he's like, he's a smart kind of put together guy.

He's got a good job. But he just got into trouble and got pushed into this. He's way more in control. Way more in control. This, this character is, is off, you know,

he's a complete fuck up. Right. So, anyway. Yeah. Someone said, this is exactly what it is. This is exactly what is. Don't tell me, Judith, something like, ah, see,

I'm public enemy number one, say? It's kind of, it kind of feels like that at times. At times, I was like, oh, that's the accent. It's like what they think in New York accent is, right? Like, that's, I told you this day. Every time I bring this up, I always have to give credit. The best New York accent from someone not from New York that I ever saw was Jonah Hill in Wall Street. Oh, yeah.

The absolute best. Absolutely best. Anyway, so that's kind of this. That's some of the stuff that I've been watching and checking out over the weekend. I'll be watching. I want to catch up with Peacemaker. I'm still only like episode two or three. I haven't.

Yeah. Oh, really? Yeah, just more. I'm more locked into watching this other stuff. I'm going to see that one, Nuremberg tonight. Oh, are you really? Yeah. I was going to the city to go check it out.

I was ready to scoff at that one, but it's been getting really great reviews. The trailers make it look like it's a Lionsgate Street. I haven't seen the trail. I think, yeah, the trail, but the reviews have been incredible. So I'm actually kind of looking forward to because I'm, I, judgment at Nuremberg is one of my favorite classic movies ever. All right. And this story is interesting. I know nothing about it.

So I'm going to go in. I love going into movies like that. I'll just go in and, you know, flying blind. It's kind of like what I love to do now with movies when I have the opportunity to do that. So I'll be checking that out. I'm seeing Roofman next week. Okay. Is it bad?

I don't know. It doesn't spark my interest, but I know a lot of people. Okay. Tron is coming up as well, and I said it's been a single trailer for the Tron movies, but Ming and I right now are watching. We just released the reaction to the first Tron from 1982. You know what? After I watched, I never saw that movie, the first one.

Never saw the first one. I saw the second one. Never saw the first movie when I was watching it. I was like, I've never seen this movie. And I don't think anyone's going to watch. I said to me, I said no one. going to watch this reaction. It's such a dated movie. It is. And it was always a niche movie. Like it wasn't, you know, it wasn't a, it was a big movie for the nerds, but it didn't do well at the

box office. And yes, it's got a strong following. But then Tron Legacy came out and did okay. It didn't do great. So, yeah. And Kaczynski did that too. Yeah, right. I'm curious to, I haven't seen that movie since Ellis and I saw it in the theater back in 2010. It was one of our legacy. Yeah. Yeah. It was one of our first movies that we, We saw, I think it came out like December 2010. Yeah. It was one of the first kind of screenings, the press screenings that we started to go to. It was one of those.

Anyway, so that's what we got as far as things I'm watching right now. We had a lot to talk about it. We had so much to talk about. It's great, great movie news day. We'll go over the box office. We'll talk about that Batman story in just a little bit. But before we do, I love talking to you guys about Nutrafall. They are the number one dermatologist recommended hair growth supplement

I love their, I love their stuff. Respectly. I was really excited when that came back on. All right. Let's do some box office stuff, dude, because this is interesting to say, I think, the least of anything kind of going on.

we'll have our, we'll have our conversation about what's going on with the box. Here's the box. I was right. One battle after another. Yeah. Is number one at 22 million, which I think is a very good opening for that movie. Yeah.

When you compare it to how much it costs, people would disagree with me. Gabby's dollhouse to movie 13.7. Now that's one, I don't know the budget on that one, but I'd like to see. The Conjuring Last Rights, I forgot that was even a movie,

but I saw it. And at summer 3, I know it crushed when it was out. I know it did, I mean, it's made $435 million. It's a massive hit. It's a massive hit. But I just completely forgot about it. Strangers Chapter 2, they weren't even screening this movie. Of course not.

I gave up on it. I gave up. I said, I'm not going to chase that. And then Demon Slayer coming in at 5 and so far, that movie has made $605 million, 118 here in the States. So let's just start, John, with one battle after another, right? Yeah. So you get this $22 million. Now, financially, not a hit financially.

Right. Yes. This movie was non-attended for box office. If any executive that was involved in this project, that greenlit and understood that this movie was going to cost $170 million to me. And they realistically thought that they thought, hey, we're going to make this back. We can absolutely make this back with, you know, it's a. almost a three-hour movie. We've got other movies that are coming like Tron and other things, too.

And people don't normally see movies like this, but this one, this is different. This is going to make $500, $600,000, $600 million. So anybody thought that they should be fired. What they thought was, okay, look, we're going to take the hit on this. We're going to put it on, whether they lease it out to Apple or whoever else they lease it out to, we're going to, this is a big Oscar push. This, everyone's going to be talking about this movie. This is where we're going to notoriety.

we've already had a lot of hits out there too. So we're okay with all the hits and all the money we've made. And now we're going to have an Oscar contender. That's what this movie is for. They even asked Leonardo Caprio, like how important is box office these days? He gave the best answer he could. But it was like, I actually liked this answer.

He said, there's so much content out there now, too. He's like, yeah, sure, box office is important, but he could have said, and he shouldn't have, but he could have said it's not that important to us right now. It's not what we're going for. Because it's not what they're going for. No, every, in this thing, it. Yes, as I said over the weekend, like studios are focused on making money and making,

however they can make money, right? But they do like to win awards. They do like to have some prestige, right? Because that attracts filmmakers that come in and make money for them, as we saw with Oppenheimer, right? Nolan going over from Universal, making almost a billion dollars with that movie. That's the post world, right? Yeah, you attract people who artists who want to work with So that's the thing. And here in this situation is, I think, is the same thing. And this is all part of the Abdi and Deluca plan, right? They've been killing it with all these films over the last few months.

Back when they were on the hot seat, everyone was like, why is throwing all this money at these people? And you're like, you get it, you get it, you get it. But then one, and they all do well at the box office, then one battle after another comes out. And you're like, oh, this only made this much, even though it's the most money, any Paul Thomas and Anderson movie has ever made in this opening weekend. And so that's a positive in that way. And it's going to attract attention. And this movie has the potential to have legs. That's the thing that's amazing about this film is that it can keep going all the way through

Oscar season into the fall into next year. And people will come and discover the film over and over and over again as it gets nominated for more awards throughout. And the glowing praise for it. That's the whole point. That's the payment for them. It's not box office necessarily. It's exactly right.

And the other thing, so I saw someone right. Well, you could have made four Oscar movies for that. Yeah, but no one would know what they are. That's the difference though. No one, no, he's not wrong. You could, but they all make four crap pretentious films that nobody went to see. Even if you made for Oscar winning films. Even if you made four great ones, even if you made four great ones for all that money, right,

what you would run into in the mainstream audience is, I don't know what that is. The main audience knows what this movie is. People are going, what is Leonardo? I think they're not necessarily everybody going to see it, but they know it's been marketed. it is a it is crossed over into the mainstream. Yeah. Oh, okay. Leonardo DiCaprio is doing a new movie.

The press has been really good for it and those things too. And like I said, when you have got the kind of year that Warner Brothers has had this year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The amount of money that is sinners, Minecraft, I mean, the list goes on and on, all the movies that they've, the money that they've made. You can go, okay, we can take the hit on this one because we're, because the win, as John said, it's the notoriety and everybody's talking about this is one of the best of the year, if not the best year. It's in my top,

it's in my top 10. I don't know where it lands, but it's in there. It could land in the top five. I don't know yet. I haven't made the list. But it's in for sure so far. It's in there.

It's in there. And I want to see it again. Yeah, more than today after our show. See it in IMAX. It's great. It's great. And it's like,

and it look, and what I did say is, you know, like Paul Thomas Anderson. You're not going to like this movie. But if you, if you like him, it's,

that he's never done yet, it felt like a Paul Thomas Anderson movie, right? It felt like his, like we've seen there will be blood. We've seen his more stylistic approaches. But when he tries to do a little more grungy, like inherent vice or licorice pizza, I have not been a man of those films. I just don't think. I like these times better. Yeah.

Yeah, I just don't think these films for him necessarily show his artistry. Yeah. This film is a way he found to both marry that section. of his career with his more operatic section of his career and combine them into one movie. And this is what you got. And it's the best of both worlds of Paul Thomas Anderson style movies. And he really nailed it in this one. And he does.

And it's two hours and 40 minutes. Yeah, then I check my watch a couple of times. Sure. But it was more a matter of like, okay, am I going to get out on time to get some food? It was not about like, oh, this feels long or this feels exhausting. No. And you've gotten great performances from DeCaprio. I mean, Sean Penn came out yesterday or two days ago to interview and say,

I've been sleepwalking the last 15 years through my movies. This is the movie that made me stand up and pay attention. You can tell. Yes, he's getting nominated. Yeah. Oh, yeah. He might even, he's probably odds on favor now.

We've got to see. I mean, we've got to see who else is coming out. But I think he's, he'll be nominated, Leo will be nominated because Sean Penn is getting nominated. What? I hope Leo gets nominated because like,

he'll get nominated. He'll have been talking about him. And he delivers just as powerful of a performance in his own way as Sean Penn does. This is getting enough buzz. He'll get nominated. PTA will get nominated. The movie will get nominated.

I hope Chase Infinity gets nominated. I hope so, too. She's really, really good. I'd love to see Benicio get nominated, but because of Sean Penn, he probably won't know. But he was so good. Do you want to seen alone, bro?

All of it. It's like, it's just, you can, and you know what a really good movie is, is when, I mean, I haven't seen the movie and probably a month ago is when I saw it, right?

I remember so much of it. A lot of these movies you just forget because it's like, you see the next thing. And I remember so much of it, where it goes and the whole thing, like the bobbing and the weaving, there's so many memorable moments. It had like a no country for all men type feel.

Yeah, 100%. 100%. You could absolutely describe it as a Cohen's-esque type of movie. 100%. I really dug that, that aspect of it. So I'm glad that it's doing well.

And like I said, it's the number one movie. That is another win, even though 22 million. I saw someone in our circle who I usually and it's not Bibiani who I always fundamentally disagree with on every one of his tweets. I've met I met him many, many times and he's a very nice person about I always disagree with his tweets. And one of his things was about how I know that they're getting notoriety, but this is this is bad if 22 million, you out of all people should know that what you just wrote is nonsense.

nonsense. Again, if any executive thought that they were going to make, you know, $500, $600,000, $600 million, you should be looking for a new job. Yeah, studios invest. Just like they invested with Scorsese with Killers of the Fire Moon. Great point. Yeah, they knew Killers of the Fire Moon was not going to be a massive success, but they wanted to be in business with Scorsese. And they gave him a certain amount of money to make that movie. It was all over awards.

And Apple got the notoriety for an award, not. nominated film that everybody was talking about, and they have FU money. And don't discount F1 being as successful as it is. You got to establish yourself with the movie-going audience that you're a studio, that the movie-going

audience can rely on to put out movies of scope and size. And so they did Napoleon, not that good. They did kill us to the flat-a-moon. A lot of people liked it. People like me didn't. Now, and then they came out with F-1. So they had to build this trust with the audience,

And then if one comes out and people love it and they went to six to the $600 million. So you can't account the connective tissues of all of that for a studio. I only showcase this because there's nothing more in the world that I hate more than LOL in passive aggressive ways. And I love this. Calvin. But Calvin writes, Beniso is funny in this role, but it's not an Oscar type of role, LOL. I'll rewrite it for him. Benito was funny in this role.

But to me, it's not an Oscar type of role. Because there's no way. LL means you're laughing on the floor and you're rolling around. You're smacking yourself in the balls. And I don't think you're doing that. So, but, and first of all, then you've never seen like Anne Hathaway in Le Mayer. She's in one scene. She's in one scene.

And she won the Oscar. So there are many people who have been in it for barely at all and have been nominated. Now, you can disagree. And you can say, I don't think it was that kind of performance. But the condescending all of LOL, I just hate it. It's not just Calvin. The condescending LOL is something that I think you should be banned from Internet for like a week. I don't agree with you.

I hate it. because you're not really doing that. It's a condescending thing. It's a thing to say, my opinion is better than yours. So I'm going to, LOL you, stupid thing to say.

No one watches my stuff, but LOL. Yeah. But you can, no, but you do that too. Nobody watches my stuff. That has nothing.

I throw that into the mix because it's all connected. I don't live in a bad. The guy can have a valid opinion. He can have an opinion, sure. But he's not a valid one. Golfing at someone else's opinion,

I think, it's a way to not have a valid opinion. Yeah. Yeah. So, see, and another moron. It's like, no, you can again, you can again have a conversation and that people, this is what people abuse. And we talked about it, the taino. People abuse the word hate. People abuse crashing out. People abuse. Like, it's like you got to be, if you don't use it accurately, you come off like a dickhead in space. Well, that's, right. Well, that's what I'm trying to tell you. Like, to me, I look at it psychologically. And I know you don't agree with me the way I look at it. But I think people do this stuff. But I think people do this stuff. because they need to condescend to jump down the throat of other people who are more successful than that that's how i look at it it's not a judgment of them and they're who they are as over but when you do stuff like that it's because you feel the need to feel superior in that moment to someone else who is more successful than you and so you have to denigrate them so you can feel better

but it's it's like a drug yeah it's only for like a few seconds and then you're back to your shitty life and so that's what i don't know if i agree with that but i mean but that's how i see it Yeah, that's fair, but I mean, I don't know the guy. You could be massively successful and just like, it's like, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you make $7 million in a day or $7 a day. It's like when you talk to something, it's like you can say, my opinion is this. Right. So that's all.

That's all. But the core of the conversation is I can see maybe because he's not in it enough, you think that maybe he, that it's going to be harder for him to get nominated, which I don't disagree with. I think that Sean Penn will get the nod over him. Now, the other stuff that's in there, Gabby. Yeah, Gabby's. That was a movie that I would have taken my little one to see,

but it was on the screenings like Tuesday night. Yeah. It was made for like $62 million, a $32 million. $32. Okay. So it could have, look, it's another one, like I said, and I say it every single time. If you can make a movie for the kids and get them in that theater.

Yeah. And Gabby's dollhouse, like, right, I would have taken my little one to the screening. Had it not been on a school night in the city, it just would have been tough to do. Right. So there you go. As far as... Kristen Wigg was in it, Gloria Stephan and Jason Mansuchas. Now, that's a cast.

That's a cast. Yeah. The other ones, you got Conjuring, which is still, even though I forgot that it was even a movie, it still has done very, very well. Strangers Chapter 2, that's a, that's a bomb, right? Strange? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. Okay. Because how much did it cost? Probably, I don't know, 30, maybe 25. Okay. I don't think it's...

If you're making a sequel, you're naturally going to sink more money into it, right? Sometimes, unless she just hope to kind of capture the same... I have no way. I mean a direct sequel. I don't mean like the 30s. It was made for 8.5. Oh. All right. So they have a chance to... They have a chance to make that money back. Yeah. They have a chance.

And then Reddy Harlan directed it. Yikes. Oh, wow. Yikes. Wow. And then the last one is Demon Slayer. Now, it's so funny, I was writing the Luke today, too.

Our Demon Slayer videos have been a, have been a disappointment. Oh, wow. I'm putting them on his weekend content, but they're, you know, nobody's, nobody's watching them. So I'm going to, we're going to finish season one. I'll probably be the end of it. But it was, it's, it's weekend content right now. I really enjoy the show, to be honest. It's really, it's a really good show.

So I understand why the audience, the audience that is watching is very hardcore. Very, very nice, the audience so far. But it can see why it made as much as, well, you, you don't do anime contents. And so the enemy audience is, I'm going to say this,

the enemy audience is very territorial and very, very much like you've got to earn our trust to watch your stuff. So I think if you stick with it, it would pay it off dividends in like months. But right, now people don't know you to cover anime content. And I know Winston knows anime, but Winston doesn't have that big of a following.

So it's like, you're not going to get that many people to watch this kind of stuff. And so you've got to just kind of- Okay. The first one did like 20,000. Yeah. But you commit to it to get the numbers you want to get for it. You've got to commit to it and take the hits for a little.

I might. I don't know you because I've really made it to show. But I'm just not going to do it. It's actually, you know, it's funny. It's not past season one, it's not a lot of episodes. Oh. Perhaps one, it's only like 12, 13 episode seasons. The first season is in 26 episodes.

So I might continue on because I do, like I said, I like having weekend content. So having Saturday and Sunday videos could be good for a while. So I don't know, because Chris Carr is going to start, we're going to start doing a lot of the India-based films. Oh, nice. Okay. She's never seen Triple R or R. And so we're going to watch that.

We have some other ideas. We're going to, she's doing that. Tina's going to finish the John Wick series. Ming's doing a lot of new releases. He's doing what we're doing Tron. We're going to do, what's it? Shoot, what's the one that's coming out with Ethan? It was a black phone.

Does that anything of it? Oh, black phone too. Yeah, yeah. We're going to do the first one. So everybody is, and Steph's doing all the Arnold movies. So we got a lot of stuff. We got a lot of stuff right now that we're working on in general. So we'll, we'll see.

Uh, that's it. Okay. So I think as far as box office goes, that's pretty much everything, right? Sounds good. Yeah. All right. Let's get into this big story, because we both have a lot of opinions on this. Okay.

Oh, yes. So that's James Gunn. He's talking Brave and the Bold, the release date, Superman's Politics and Peacemaker Season 2 Easter Egg. I know that I haven't seen it. I'm going to get spoiled. My answer is whatever. Okay. I don't care about being spoiled anymore.

I'm just, I'm not as invested in, in all of the DC and Marvel stuff like I used to be. Yeah, I would have watched it by now if you, yeah, I like, yeah,

I like watching it. I like watching it when I see it, but I'm like, I'm more locked into these Oscar movies and everything else too right now. It's like, I'm just, I think I'm getting,

uh, in you did with, with this stuff as much as everybody else. Um, I'm just not as locked in. I used, I mean, I would never miss peacemaker before.

But now I'm like, I'll get to it eventually. Um, DC Studio's co-CEO James Gunn has once, again, fielded fan questions on social media. Oh, what? Starting with some of the chatter surrounding the DC's Batman movie The Brave and the Bold, the filmmaker recently cast out on us getting the Batman or Robin's story we were promised would be part of the Chapter 1, Gods and Monsters, Slate at the start of 2023.

For starters, Gunn has said that they're not looking to release The Brave and the Bold as late as 2030 to 2031, suggesting it might arrive as soon as 2028, 2029. The man of Tomorrow, Helmer also elaborated on his recent remarks about Damien Wayne's parent, confirming he was referring to how and when Bruce becomes an actual parent. So this is a tweet that says, people are saying Batman the Brave and the Bull can release around 2033. Are you looking to release date as late as that? He said, no, Lee Pace Batman. English is not my first language.

There's confused of first two, since the people of parentage and paternity as interchangeable, but this is what you meant right, Damien's parentage. I just meant in regards to how and when Bruce becomes an actual parent. James Gunn, is there a possibility that actors from Matt Reeves Batman epic crime saga can play some characters in your DCU like Pattinson or Colin Farrell or to just not confused fantasy will be part of Elserols? He said, yes, I can play other characters into DCU, sure. Talking to the reporter, Gunn seemed to cast doubt on It Ends with Us star Brendan Scunar being his top choice for Batman, after he revealed he's been watching 1923. I'm definitely not scouting for the Cape Crusader, but always scouting when I'm watching TV shows.

I'm always watching characters. In fact, I really liked the young woman in 1923. She's just so fantastic that I suggested her for something recently. Which young woman in 1923? Good question. I did. I recommend, oh, I know who. The one who plays his wife.

She was great. Because I suggested Isabella from 1883. Right. Supergarth, she would have been great. I'm watching it because I like Taylor Sheridan and stuff, especially that one. That's my favorite of all his shows. So I'm watching it mostly for, fun and I'm definitely not watching it because I need to find a Batman.

I believe 50% of that. I believe the second. I believe the second part of it. I'm definitely not watching because I need to find Batman. Yeah. I believe that. I believe that's a healthy way to look at everything. Of course.

He's probably curious. But I'm mostly watching it for fun. I mean, you're enjoying it. Sure. But of course, your, your head's going, okay, because that person fed, because that person. I mean, come on. Moving on from Batman, he shared an exciting peacemaker season two update and confirmed that Lexu there wasn't referring to.

Creature Commandos Dr. Posterous while discussing the BFing in the next cell. Can you confirm that? No one can't isn't Dr. Prosser? It definitely isn't. Jameson, do you have any plans for Peacemaker, Vigilante, and your team at the end of Peacemaker's Season 2? He says, huge, okay? Inevitably, much has been said about peacemakers politics. Following revealed, the show's alternate reality is the Nazi Earth.

Axe fans continue to debate similar parallels to the real world and Superman and what they believe was referenced in the Israel-Palestine conflict with Rovia. He confirming he wrote it before the conflict. it was pointed out to gun that the war had been going on for a while. Okay, prompting him to explain, of course, have been conflict for a long time, but people don't think the events in a movie mirror of the conflict pre-October 27, 2023, they think it mirrors events post that date. Superhero stories have always mirro in real life since it's hard to say what's such a problem for many fans.

Then again, some would understand why rather not see politics in these movies and TV shows as they want to skip the real world. Okay, let's say some more stuff again. All right. I mean, look, you and I go back and forth and sometimes, I still think he talks too much on social media.

I don't think he needs to. I just don't think we agree on. Yeah, I just don't think he needs to. But I don't mind any comments here on this one. Like, I think these are all pretty honest and fair comments, even the stuff like,

okay, yeah, you're watching it for fun, which I believe. It's a good show. You like watching the show, but you're still scouting. There's no way that you see everybody in their mother sending you Brendan Schenar,

and you're not going to, well, I'm not watching. it for i'm not paying it of course you are you're saying you're watching going could he fit you very well could think no yeah um but you're still why it might not be the only reason and i do believe you're probably watching because you like the show and probably you're number one but everything he says you know the the as far as the politics side of it i believe him and they wrote that whenever he wrote it and so why wouldn't he say yeah i wanted to i'm going to make a message there too he

didn't um so i believe a lot of the stuff there that he was talking about as far as the parentage okay great. We get to see we get a little bit more there. Believe that they're going to try to hit that date earlier than later, which I think you need to. If you're going to establish Wonder Woman, you're going to establish all these characters. You kind of have to. And I think Jeff said it on your show. So maybe, tell me if I'm wrong. Sure. But he doesn't think that the brave and the bold is going to happen at all. Is that, is that accurate? Oh, yeah, he's adamant that there won't be too bad men. I've only ever been adamant that Mushieri is not to act. in this thing. But he's

adamant there won't even be a Brave and the Bold that have the two Batman. And that seems to be growing that sentiment. The more he harps on the Brave and the Bold and the more people are looking forward to the Batman part two, the more people are like,

it doesn't make sense to have two Batman. Not because you can't have two, you have Jokers or yeah, fine, but like you're going to have two competing Batman. And that's where the problem lies. You're essentially setting up that one will be compared to the other. And if Reeves' Batman is more well received than Brave and the Bold, then it becomes

a problem. But if both of them are received well, then you don't have a problem. And that's the chance you want to, I guess they want to take here. But, you know, Jeff is just adamant that it's not going to happen. I thought is that. I'm, I'm with you. I'm going to disagree with Jeff. I would have said a couple, like a year ago that I probably agreed with him. Yeah. But we're, and I would have bet on the Batman. not being the one to happen, but that movie's going to happen. Right.

It's going to happen. Now, the confusing thing is, I agree with everything that you just said is that, especially if Gunn's saying that we're going to get his Batman in like 2028, 2029, now we're getting the Batman part two. Right. In 27, right? Yeah. So that gives you enough time to separate.

The question is going to be, then when do we get the Batman part three? 2031 when Robert Pattinson is 107 years old or whatever you know and I kid of course it'll be like 45 years old but whatever whatever it is um you know he which is fine I think it's all up in the air man I think they have I think they have plans I don't doubt that they have plans but everything's going to depend on how the audience reacts to these subsequent films like because you've got Clayface coming you got Supergirl coming if Supergirl crashes and burns or doesn't do as well then there's an issue. If Clayface comes out and barely makes its money back,

that's an issue. And listen, James Gunn is not directing everything. So he could executive produce all the live long day. But it's like the, you know, his directing stuff like peacemaker, Superman, yeah, the exciting man of tomorrow. Even Creature Commandos, which he had a strong hand in,

although he didn't direct the episodes, like he's, you see that energy there. But this is now handing some of it off to other people. and I think that's where we're going to see what's going to happen. And who is he going to get to do Brave and the Bolt? Because it ain't going to be fucking machete. Who's going to get to do? Wonder Woman.

So there's these questions that have to be established. And then also you can't ignore the fact that Zazov is trying to sell off Warner Brothers. And you've heard that Paramount's interested. You've heard that Netflix is interested. Will they want to continue to be in the James Gun universe or business if his films come out or those films come out and they don't do well? What happens? Also, Supergirl is significantly. better reviewed than Superman.

Right. Right. And Craig Gillespie, arguably, better director for artistic films. James Gunn is more of a mainstream, better director than Gillespie. So it'll be curious to see the reactions to that movie. My point. For me, it's like I've been pretty vocal in the fact that I didn't like the way that she was represented in the movie.

However, everybody that tells me about that comic book is one of the best comics and how much I would love the story itself. And from the synopsis and the things that I've heard about it, it does sound like up my alley. And that's way more interesting to me than, see, I didn't think, I didn't think that,

I thought there was a lot of James Gunn jokes in Superman, but I didn't overpower it in the way that I thought it was going to. There were sometimes I was, like, like, I thought it was going to overpower the movie. And I agree that there's a lot of humor. And it's still in there and sometimes it takes me out of it.

Okay, but to me, it didn't. The only kind of it really, took me out of it, even though, again, and he did this in Guardians too, a thousand times is when he, uh, he goes for a funny joke in a time you don't need it. Like this is the garage door in, in Superman when it's like, it's a funny bit, but like, do we need that right now when we're on the way to go save Clark? And you're going to have a funny bit like, this would be so funny waiting for the garage to go up. And it's like that kind of stuff. It's like you take away just a little bit. And so I don't think you're going to get that in Supergirl.

Like that kind of stuff. I hope not because I think that's not Gillespie's type of humor. Right. And James has been very clear that like the different, the movies will have different tones. They'll have different energies to them. And so I think there will be jokes in Supergirl. Sure.

That's how you cast Millie Alcock and Jason Momoa, who could both do comedy or comedic moments. But I think it'll have a much more serious tone as the comic does. So I don't think you're going to see the stuff that you see in Superman. And listen, look at Peacemaker. I mean, that's an R-rated show. and he has Lex talking about two villains having anal sex with each other in prison. That would have never been in Superman.

No. He knew. He knew his, that show established itself in the same way that the boys did. You can run into that moment. And I think it's fun for people to see. I don't know if you're talking that way. I think it's a small micro example of the fact that he will alter tones to fit the shows or movies

with the characters that are already seen in other things, which I think is smart, honestly. Who do you think, when do you think that Mushieri is going to be announced that, you know, the creative differences or not creative differences, scheduling is what's going to happen. I think Muscietti is already, the fact that he's already taking other jobs telling you exactly that it's already in motion,

and they're going to, and Musci, they're going to let Mushyetti announce it, just like they did with Cabell, just like it was going to be Andy saying, listen, things have changed in the story, things have changed in the direction they're going with. no longer what I had initially agreed to. And that's okay, because that's there,

it's James and it's universe. And he's going to pull, and he's going to step away. Probably as soon as they find the director they want to go with, then Andy will step away. I like to see a big name. Kind of come in. Great. All right. Well, what do you guys think about all these announcements? What do you think about

all the potential going on? Put your thoughts there. Let us know. All right. Again, like I said, there's a lot of news. We could get to the questions, but we're going to, I want to get to this news and we got more. And so there's some potential early story details on Starfighter,

which is really, I would say... Who told you this? Who told you this? Was this you guys? Okay. I didn't, I haven't read the story yet. I'd like to hear a little bit more about it, but a very basic idea of the story and currently in production, Star Wars Starfighter, has reportedly emerged online.

The title has been pitched as an all-new, standalone adventure set in an entirely original story, said in a period of time never before explored in Star Wars. A film of folds around five years after the events of Star Wars to rise as Skywalker, taking us into further into the future of the franchise has gone before and well after the defeat of Palpatine in the First Order. Ryan Gosling,

Flynn Gray, Matt Smith, Mia Gauth, Aaron Pierre, Simon Bird, Jamel, Westman, Daniel Inks, and Amy Adams star in the film, which mostly seems to be about Gosling's character protecting great young character. Now the hot Mike, some hack named John Roker is reporting that. That's son of a bitch. Yeah, film story boils down to this. The main kid is force sensitive. Okay, okay.

His mom is Amy Adams. She seems to be a Jedi. Gosling is not a Jedi, but he's helping his nephew escape two evil bad guys who are chasing him across the stars. He has a mission he's on, given him by Adams. Oh, I bet you I know what the mission is then. This ties in with theories of Gosling's characters looking delivered to the kid. Yeah, right. That's what I would have guessed.

To the newly created Jedi Academy being run by Ray and thus potentially led into the Ray-centric new Jedi order feature. Deadpool, Wolverine, and Free Guy, Director Sean Levy, Helms the movie and produces with Kennedy. Starfight will be released on May 28th. Let me tell you that and we'll get a little bit more about, let's see how confident you are in these details. If these are the details, I'm as excited as I was 10 minutes ago,

which is I am more excited about this movie than I have been for a bit for any Star Wars movie because this to me is a story where you don't have to rely on the empire. You don't have to rely on the first order. You just kind of rely on these two evil humps, whether it's Matt Smith, right? Because Matt Smith is in it, right? Matt Smith could be. Right. These two, them alone, if they're the two bad guys going after the kid.

And, you know, there's a reason why. And they found it, Amy Adams, mom said, look, I need you to protect my kid. And you got to get the kid to Ray. Then we don't need to rely on Ray. When you finally get there, okay, now we're going to have this. is always one of the things like make me care about what's going on in the world make me care okay i care now spin off now i care um so if you can establish and make me care in this one i i i like this um how confident are you with uh with with these uh details i've been hearing about this for weeks so

it was only that i finally got the go ahead uh before the hot mic show last week to talk about it openly, you know, because I get stuff now because of the hot mic. I have people who reach out to me. But I always kind of, you know, you have to vet stuff. You have to test stuff. And so I, but then I heard from other people. And so I was like, okay, these details are lining up. And these are people I trust.

And so I was like, okay, this makes sense. And so that's when I said it on the show. And of course, I cleared it with Jeff because Jeff gets real antsy if I break stuff when he's not privy to it. So I always tell him I can go solo, so it's not your face on the camera when I'm saying. But he was in on this one and it passed his smell test. I do think Amy Adams is a Jedi, probably one of the hidden Jedi to the last Jedi. And I think she dies.

I think the kid, I think she hands the kid off to Gosling, who may be his dad or not be his dad. I don't know. I think the twist would be amazing that he doesn't know it's his kid. And his kid knows he's his dad, but doesn't tell him until later on in the film, which would be a nice twist. and that the people hunting them down. And then there's people in charge of them. So I don't know if it's Matt Smith and someone else hunting, and Mia's like in charge.

I don't know what the answer is there on that. But I do think it's leading to them handing the kid off to Ray. I know Josh over at Den of Nerds did a whole thing. He's losing his mind over the weekend about it. And he was claiming that Sean Levy's being forced to do this kind of movie. This is nonsense. Sean Levy has been working on a quote-unquote Ray Star Wars movie for a couple of years now. And so to me, I think this was,

the intention from the beginning and there were rumors about an older ray and all of that so it's possible but like the idea that sean is somehow being forced to do this kind of movie is nonsense and if that's what josh was actually saying because uh sean has been working on a ray movie for a while and so this is a way of kind of connecting all i'm in time i haven't been i haven't been um i haven't given a crap like i still haven't watched him in learning grogoo trailer still haven't watched that trailer um okay i'll watch a movie when it comes out that's right right right That movie is that it's a TV. It's a TV show. And I and I and I, but I also say this. It is absolutely 100% the right move to try to do the Moana strategy with that. But that, that movie is really to recoup losses on, on stuff to try to get their money back to get people in the theater. It's not the end-all be all. If Starfighter does not hit for the audience, then you're in trouble.

You're in trouble. You got to stop. If it doesn't hit. Right. You're going to get the people who are going to go, nobody wants to see a Ray movie. I think you're wrong. I think you're wrong.

I think that she was not the, I liked, right. Me too. I like time. I like Daisy Ridley. I think the movies that she was in was gavish. I think that she was put into a shit trilogy.

And I think that the, in the way that she was handled in general in certain ways that the characters, I agreed with John Boyega's comments of everything that he said, actually, with people that it's like if you this one doesn't work then you're in trouble i agree however if you can make a good movie with this cast and this director who has been pretty good especially in pulling out multiple moments i bring out real steel right yeah um you could start something new but you scrap everything if this movie fails you scrap everything you said like it's not working let's not push it

it's not working no one cares yeah and we'll see yeah i think it's going to be fascinating to see how the movie comes out and how it's received because we know that there might be people who don't go see this out of a protest you know and are there enough people is there enough bad will with Star Wars that people won't go see a Ray movie

even if it's directed by Christopher Nolan like or a movie that's going to lead us to Ray even if it's directed by Christopher Nolan because like people have a thing but I mean Deadpool Wolverine made $1.5 billion so you're investing in a director that knows how to give you stuff

you want to see in a mainstream way. So I agree with you. I think the issue with the sequel trilogy was the directors, although JJ is a great director for the first one. Not just the producers, producers. They are a producer. They're all of their team. How about the overall end result of the product was the coaching staff.

The coaching staff and the players, hard. Right. And so you, but I think Daisy really is amazing as Ray. I'm glad she's going to come back, get a shot at it. But if you don't set her up right, as you said, Christian 100% right, they're going to have to reassess the whole. You have to. It would be, again, bad management on, if you're, if you're Iger and you go, okay, let's take a look at and see how this does. Yeah. Yeah. And if nobody goes and sees it and start and no,

and end, if they don't respond to the story of Ray and everything too at the end of it and those moments don't play, you got to go, hey, listen, you know the thing we're going to do at Kinberg? We're going to focus on that. Clearly, that's not working. We have to reassess. Right. Or, wow, you guys did it. It turned it around. You made people actually give a crap now. I mean, there's a level of people. There's, like I said, I've said this a million times. You're going to have two sides.

You're going to have three sides. But you're going to have the two obvious of the trailer is going to come out. And there's a spaceship. And people are going to, oh, my God, this is amazing. There's a spaceship. Oh, my God. There's a star. Oh, my God. This is the best.

You're going to have that. Of course. That's part of it. Then you're going to have, well, raising it, this movie's going to stink. Disney is Disney, right? And the two, the two easiest, what I'd love to see, I love to see, shock me on that side of like,

look, this potential there, but maybe from what we've seen in the past, they could eat it. But they're going to do the, you know, the predictable this, that, that, that shill stuff, all that. Then you're going to have the, we love everything, nothing can be wrong. You guys, you're, you're, you're racist and hate women if if you don't like this movie. That's a predictable bullshit.

In the middle of this, and in the same way, the politics, you know, that's who I care about. You're here and you're going, I haven't given a shit about Star Wars. I don't care anything about it.

It's like, that one looked interesting. That one, I, let me see. Any good? And if it's good, you come out,

you go, yeah, didn't mind it. Like, those are the people I'm going to be listening to. Yeah. What do you think? Were you excited about this?

Why I saw the trailer and I wanted to see it? What did you think about it? What was pretty good. How about you? I'm not interested. I'm done with Star Wars. Okay. That's what I'm listening to. I love everything and I hate everything. They can go eat shit. Both of them.

Yeah, like we were saying on everything going on now in our world, all the extremists are off base and wrong, and a majority of them are grifting for their own reasons. It's the people in the middle we need to be focusing. People understand both sides and take from both sides and have a much more well-rounded opinion and perspective on the situation. Same thing here with Star Wars. You don't listen to the extreme lovers and extreme

haters screw them. They're both in it for their money. Here in the middle is where you look at it and you honestly assess it and take the good and the bad and look at it and offer constructive criticism for improvement, right? And that's what you want to see. And so I agree with you 100%. But I think it's a fascinating strategy to use what, because I mean, Kathleen said that this is like, you know, a one-off. This isn't connected to anything else. But if in the end it does lead to Ray, then I trust her as much as I trust politicians. She literally said, she literally said like a day before some of the thing, something, we're not doing trilogies anymore.

We're doing, we're just doing one. And then the next day she announced the Cameron Kinberg trilogy. Like, are you even listening to yourself speak? What do you stop? Why are you making any announcements? And this is where Roxy and I will disagree like we did last week on month. It's like, Roxy says this is all part of the game. And I get that.

Roxy believes that. And I think a lot of people do. And I totally respect that. I myself. Contradicting yourself on everything you do? Right. Like, you know, with James, because we were talking about James Gunn last week. Roxy said that. To me, I don't see the things that he says as offensive as you do, John, because

to me that's just part of the game. And he has no obligation to tell us the truth. But I'm like, well, if you're going to open your mouth, then tell us the truth. Because you can obviously not open your mouth and let us live in the mystery and the wonder of it all. Right. But I think some people like to open their mouths and become the sentiment. of attention. I know I ironically, I know I say that. Like legitimately, people in way more power

with way more money and way bigger platform like to bring attention to themselves. I think James can't resist being online. And Kathleen can't resist like, you know, kind of saying whatever's convenient for the moment, hoping we all have selective amnesia about some things you just said a day ago. And it's a fascinating way to work the system. I just don't understand for me personally. Senator, many times. So it's like you announced something and then he announced Ray as coming back like four years ago. Yeah.

What are you doing? It's like the amount of directors they lost like all this. I mean, granted, maybe they're changing that now. But like, right. But it's just been, this is what I mean. Like you can start to win now. But your, your win is that people, first of all, two things are wrong. Yeah.

And I've said this many times over. If you are anywhere near. making videos saying that Mandalorian will A, make $1 billion or $2 billion? You should be arrested. You're crazy. You're crazy. If you think it's going to make that.

Now, but the other side of it is, if it doesn't do well to say and proclaim Star Wars is dead, it's not the case because what it's asking you to do is a lot of homework because of the series. Now, the question is going to be, is the audience that is already familiar with Mandalorian and Grogu, are they going to show up at the theater?

If they don't, it does not mean that they won't show up for Starfighter. If they don't show up for Starfighter, then reassessments need to be made. Whether that is getting rid of this team, getting rid of Foloni, getting rid of anybody who's there, selling it, that is also a possibility and should potentially be discussed. But right now, Starfighter is the one you got to be looking at, not Mandolian and Grogo. You're 100% dude because Mandelorian and Grogo is coming from a TV show. And as much as big as it was,

a sensation and people got them baby Yoda shirts, it's a whole other thing to get people to go to the theater and sit down and experience it off of a TV show. Look at Thunderbolts. I mean, that's as good of a film as you're going to make. And a lot of those characters from TV shows

are smaller parts and other movies. And so, yeah, you hope it is a big sensation. I just think they hope they make some kind of profit on Mando and Grogo. There's a billion seems, insane. It's definitely going to make a billion. No way. No way it makes a billion. But remember, it only costs it's the cheapest Star Wars movie ever because it's a budget for a TV show. It's like $120 million, whatever it is, or 140 or whatever it might be. It's one of the cheapest

Star Wars movies ever. So they just need to make like $400 million on it or something like that. They'll do that. I think they'll do that. So we'll see. Anyway, what do you guys make of all of it? Put your thoughts in there. Let us know. What are your things? thoughts on all the Star Wars stuff that's happening. Now, man, like I said, we didn't even get to everything. We even get to Miami Vice today, which, because we just got too many, we got too much to do. We have too many stories already at 37 questions, John. Start out the day. So before we even get to it, what's going on in the channel? Oh, yeah. That's right. The new John Roka channel. We are officially up and running. I've got a live show tonight, going to do the truth a little bit later on.

show tonight because Jeff is in Boston. So he won't be back till next week or sort of later this week rather. And so we're going to wait to do a show until then. But yeah, I'll do a show tonight. Spill the tequila tomorrow night. GeekBuddy stuff coming up this week as well. And as I said, we're back with a hot mic a little bit later on in the week.

And then some reviews and reactions I will have. Tonight I will do my live spoiler review as part of the live show for one battle after another, which I'm going to see again after this show is done because I want to have a fresh idea on it. But yeah, come and hang out there at YouTube.com slash John Roka says. Thanks, guys. Awesome. It's got word.

I know I always jinx myself when this happens, but we might potentially get Famka Jensen for an interview. Hey, nice. I'd like to. There was a big fan of her, so curious to see if we can if that won't happen. All right. John, we have 39 questions already. Pretty damn good as we were just starting. Blake Gilbert, one battle after another has surpassed there will be blood for me.

Seriously, that is how much I love this movie. It'll be my top 10. And things. So, dude, I had a moron. Oh my God, a moron come in. And this guy's like, ever since Christian said he didn't like, there will be a lot, I can't take his review seriously. I said, well, your head is losing yourself because there's no world where I ever said that.

You said it once. I said it once. I was like, where? Show me the link. No link. And I's like, it's like, what are you talking about? It's one of the, one of his best movies and one of the greatest performances of Daniel Lewis.

I was like, I hate people. Sometimes. I really do. I really do. Well, sometimes. I agree. Sometimes. Blake also says, also, Chase Infinity is very pretty, not just pretty in the traditional sense, more like a gut punch like, damn.

That is a beautiful woman. She's a very pretty girl. And I thought she was wonderful in the role. It's a star making turn. I think if I'm Marvel or DC and I know, or Star Wars even, I am looking at her immediately. I mean, I know you could get into trouble because people are so crazy about race swapping, but I think she'd be an excellent rogue. I could see her as a Gene Gray.

So she has got that kind of talent and screen presence. She's really good movie. Yeah. Blake Gilbert again. Thank you, Blake. Apparently, Chase Infinity, when living in Chicago was a kickboxing instructor, beauty, serious acting chops, and a bit of baddish. I wonder if that's why they put the martial arts part of it

in the movie. Oh, yeah, maybe. I mean, because I have that scene with her in the bag, a heavy bag. Did you see an old interview with PTA? I don't know how old it was, but they were talking about like screenwriting. And he said that when he went into film, a film, he had, he, he was rubbed wrong in film school because he said he, he walked into a screenwriting class and the teacher said, if you're here to make Terminator 2, then you should take your books and and, and pack up or leave whatever. He said, and he said, why would you say that?

He's like, what if there's some of his dreams to write Terminator 2? He's like, you know, you can, you can start at the really artsy stuff. Why don't just start it like termine or two and lead to artsy stuff and those things too? And like, who's to say that's wrong if that's what you want, if that's what you're passionate about? I love this. It might surprise people, but there's a lot of arrogant, conceited people in the world of film, them teaching. But that's also a way to kind of weed out the people who really want to dedicate themselves to being in the business.

Because the business is a rough business. You're going to know what you really want to do. and there are always reasons to leave. Right. I've met a million people like that. It's like, yeah. John Derris, happy Monday. Everyone wanted to know if you two are fans of Highlander. Pump for Steliske's Vision, phenomenal cast as well.

You think the delay might have some cast leave, or will they be okay? Drew McIntyre is going to be this. Did you hear this? Yeah. That's great. He's perfect. Scottish War.

Oh, now you're Drew McIntyre. I thought that Drew McIntyre had talent. I just never thought he was that major star that Aaron thought he was going to be. He was like, he's like, the guy that's going to lead the company. I think, I think he's much better as a heel. I agree. Yeah, I've never. I always, I was like that once he went heel, I thought he was

great as a heel. I don't think he's the lead guy in the company, but I think he's a very strong character for sure. Yeah, him in the punk program, one of the best programs. Oh, is it? Oh, yeah, yeah, the two of that. It was great. Yeah, I like to, I'm looking forward to it. I don't think any of the castes. I don't think they do a delay without making sure the cast can stay on. Yeah, they'll figure it out. probably a smaller shoot too. Mark Long.

Hello, great recent geek buddies episode, John, when is the next Jedi Way? Thanks, happy Monday. Yeah, I'll talk about that

with Laura and Kevin. Maybe we'll figure out some this week. It's been a couple weeks, so we'll figure it out for sure. Thanks for asking that. I'll talk about. Renetta W.

Bad Bunny doing the whole 2026 halftime show. I do not speak Spanish, and I absolutely hope that bunny does not speak a lick of English. I can't wait. I love them. Does he not sing in English?

No, of course. He does. He sings English and Spanish. Of course. football fans lost their effing minds because that's what we do. That's what some of them do nowadays. Like, what? We can't have a Latino be the halftime show.

This is the new country now. Damn it. All white is so nonsense. Just nonsense. Let people be, he's one of the biggest artists in the world to shut the hell up and enjoy the show. I don't understand why he would be, why they would get him.

He's, I mean, plus he's a really good actor too, by the way. Mm-hmm. What was he just? And a wrestler. Yeah. He's hilarious in SNL.

Remember? Is that a lot of hilarious. just in something recently where he was a bat he was oh he's in uh caught stealing oh yes right he was good enough that movie no one's talking about that movie by the way no nobody's talking about them uh right at w what you're on in the background tv show i don't really do that because i i'm i have such a bad like thing i mean it's a good thing i don't know probably creators would probably be happy to hear this i can't have something on i can't tell you many times I've been in trouble with, whether it's my wife or anybody else, with something on TV.

And are you listening to me? No, I'm watching the thing that's on television right now. Why aren't you listening to me? Because otherwise, I miss what's going on on television. I'll pause it. Mine is probably law and order. Now that Pluto TV has a law and order channel, I just leave it on there if I'm doing stuff around that.

I love it. That makes sense. People love that show. Enrique Enorotto. Broke, my Latino brother, Sean Penn should win the Oscar for one battle. What a haunting performance. His walk and talk remind me in Vince McMahon. Oh, yeah.

100% Christian. Come on. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I would not be surprised if he modeled it after.

Would you not be surprised? I'm not ready to say anybody should win. Right. Because I haven't seen everything. Yes. I haven't seen everything. I got to say, I mean, I haven't even seen, I mean, well, and it's probably be best actor, but I mean, the Daniel Day Lewis movie.

He's probably going to be in the running. Again, he always is. What a story. He's been retired for having many many years. And he comes back. And it's like the old, you know, little tennis pro hasn't played in forever. Comes back and just beats the piss at everybody again. I just love when he said, he said over the weekend, he said, I should have never retired. What a stupid thing.

And I'm like, yeah. Did he do that? Yes. And I'm glad he said. I'm glad he admitted it. And I hope now we open the door to all kinds of. Because, I mean, him and Oppenheimer, bro, that would have taken that move even to another. Was he supposed to be in that?

No, no, I'm just saying. No, they would have tried that. I don't ever think there are some things, like, again, an athlete, when an athlete says I'm retired, okay. I mean, and even an athlete can come back. Sure. But an athlete's retiring because their body's breaking down and they can't. An actor doesn't ever have to announce that they're retired.

Unless you get to a place, God forbid, terminally ill, something is happening where you can't do it anymore. then you go, I'm just retired. I can't do anything. I'm stepping back from this. I am not doing it anymore because health I want to, like Rick Moranis, I'm retiring, taking to her of his wife at the time.

Like I get it. But like I'm retiring from acting after my, Tarantino, after I do my next three movies, I'm retiring. Don't say that because you can come back at any time. And people change. Yes.

Well, people like five years later, you're like, oh, wow, I missed it. Like taking a break. Take a break. Everybody can take a break. Taking a break. I agree. So, yeah, to me,

like, the actors and directors retiring unless, you know, like Mel Brooks could have said I'm retiring, and he's not. He has never said he's retiring. No.

That's 150 years old. He's never, and he's never, never. I know he's not directing space balls too, but still. Cowboys fan 92.

Hot take, everyone talking shit about bad bunny getting to do the upcoming halftime show. Actually, I should do it the way that's written. Right? Hot take.

Everyone talking shit about bad bunny. Bunny getting to do the upcoming half time of show. I haven't known songs. Get ready. You're not straight. I'm just playing music. Yeah. It's all the old fogies too because all the younger generations know bad bunny.

And the NFL knows we need to cater to them in order to maintain our status and our product. You know, them bringing in Taylor Swift. That's no accident. Them bending over backwards to make sure she's the focus of it. That's them playing to the younger audience because I hate to break it to you, old people. You don't matter to them as much. as younger generations do because you're going to die off soon and the younger generations are going to stay fans for generations just like you did so yeah Carlton rudder London calling what's up

not a huge PTA guy but I loved one about good Decapre was hilarious he was and Penn was a stone called psycho yeah chase infinity is movies MVP she really stole a lot of scenes man she really did she really really did it's to her performance yeah I thought she was yeah that movie is super solid I'm looking forward to watching it again um especially at the comfort of my own home next time Blake Gilbert watched Superman again on Blu-ray it's still great my number one on my top 10 I'm a Batman fan but this movie hit hey I'm happy to hear it yeah good you like it go pal support thank you Julius Wyatt I think Johnny Greenwood

wins his first Oscar for his score for one battle I think it's the most underrated part of the movie I love the movie again I'm not ready to call anybody the winner yet I got to see all the other movies and see what everything else that's been nominated, but I think he'll be nominated. Winning, I don't know. It's hard to say. You got to see,

look, this movie just caught that hype push and it caught it. There's other movies that are going to catch the hype push. It happens every Oscar season. Like, you think of the Brutalus.

Brutalus was like one of those movies. Oh, yeah. It just cut that hype push. And out of nowhere, it's like, everyone was talking about one movie and this. So we got away.

One battle is the first hype push. Yeah, I just think I think it's the odds on favorite right now. Right. And I wouldn't say it's underrated because everyone's talking about it, Julius, in all the conversations and the posts and the reviews. The score? Yeah.

So I don't think it's underrated. I think that score is properly rated by everybody's seen. Go pal. Only I know about strangers is Madeline Petch is super hot. And I think it's a horror movie. So I haven't seen either. The first movie is, it's the one movie. I remember when I saw it in that theater, I just sat during the credits and couldn't move.

Is that the lit lily? What's the? Pryler. You live Tyler, right. Yeah. It's fairly terrifying. I'm not good at home invasion movies. I don't like those movies, man.

So the even creepier part about it was, so I remember when I was working at, oh, I was still visiting Silver quite often and Navid was still there. And Naveed got an early cut of that movie. Oh. And the first one. And they actually, in the early cut, because in the actual movie, you don't, you never see their faces. It's always, in the early cut of this movie, you see their faces.

And I think it's so much stronger. to not have it. Enrique, I read a rumor that the studio wanted Pedro Pascal for one battle for Beniso's role. And PTA said, no, I'll take Latino Benicio over Latino Pedro. I don't know if he said it like that.

But I think if that was the case in general that he decided to take Benicio over Pedro, I think it was the right call. Pedro Vascals got to, and look, he's great. He's got to step back to the way. Like anyway, and I said the same thing about Jennifer Lawrence.

He said the same thing. He got to step back because now people are making videos about how you're in everything and people are getting sick of you. You don't need that. That's not good PR. Right. Well, you can't, you know, estimate when these films are coming out. You can't predict when these films go. It just happened to work out that way that all these films at the same time. But I hear you. But I think the, I think the question is framed a little incorrectly. It wasn't that they didn't want that PTA didn't want Pedro. It's that they really wanted Benicio. And they waited months for Benicio because he was doing the other film. And so they just felt he was better for

the role of what they wanted to do. It's nothing wrong with that. a rejection of bad though. Right. Cowboys Fan 92. Also great podcast, a podcast, a podcast for you two on purpose of Jay Shee and Zedviz. Amazon watch really good. Oh yeah, it was good. I watched that. Being really open about her experiences in life and dating and being an actress.

I didn't realize she had retired. Yeah. Retired. Again, I retired. Taking a break. I didn't really take a break. She realized, the thing, the great answer she said was, I thought, I was so spoiled by Harry Potter, but I thought every film said I was going to be on. It was going to be a family atmosphere. I was going to be friends with these people

for life and it was a brutal truth that that is not related and so i think it's a really honest answer from when you grow up on set yeah yeah of course and you're being coddled and everyone loves you or the star yeah yeah yeah yeah of course uh dingus mcgnalle would make a great two-face if you see him when battle was and you know yeah he absolutely would um but they got to go a different route though they can't go the nolan round for the next two-face it just can't yeah they can't they did that already yeah like if you ever do an older back Batman and Sean Penn. Yes, I agree.

Tim. Yeah. Which is the funniest moment seen in one battle after another. I think with the chase with when they're, when they're trying to get Leonardo out of the, out of the studio and the roof thing. It's hilarious. It's funny.

Funny movie. When he hits the ground when the police are going by, that is genius. But like, hilarious. For me, it was obviously the Benicio D-UI scene. I just,

I lost my show. Because those are my uncles. Those are my uncles, those are my uncles, man. Crash and Cody. Breaking news, EA is going private, $55 billion deal. Wow. I have to explore that. Yeah, I take a look at that one for sure.

I look to hear more details on that. Johnny, I really hope you don't stop at season one. I'm a giant, demons like. Yeah, I mean, look, like I said, I hear myself saying, I like having weekend content, but it's just a, it's just, you know, it's a bummer because we're putting in editing costs and I got to pay Winston to be there. So it's like, but people also said that maybe some episodes will perform better than others.

I'm willing to try it up because I like watching the show. So there you go. Trey Porter, found out yesterday that Chase Infinity's name comes from Nicole Kidman's character in Batman Forever and the Buzz Light, your quote from Toy Story. Is that true? Chase Meridian? Oh, yeah.

Wow. Talking about movie fans, her parents. That's cool. enough to we're old enough for that to be true johnny she's john what was mo salla trying to do man i don't know what he's talking about i don't know what he's talking about okay all right sorry uh tim sim i can't stay along what's up tim uh as i'm busy and watch the show recording later want to say that i hope everyone's doing well i pray to the baseball gods for no yankees dodgers rematch in the world suck it. Yeah, well, I mean, the thing is, it's just, I was, I was watching just so freaking

raise, they really blew it for a raise. They could, the Yanks could have had that spot, but because the Blue Jays beat them more in the series, I mean, they ended tied in the regular season. Um, the Yanks got the Red Sox at home, the whole thing. So hopefully they can take them out. But I mean, look, it's baseball. Anything that happened. Anything I have with the Red Sox, man. So I don't know. We'll see. Uh, let's see. The Dono. Trump announced 100% tariffs on all movies made outside of the U.S. What the F are you guys thoughts? Sorry to political. Broca, let it rip.

No. I mean, look, one of the things that I would like to see, I'll tell you that. It's like, this is another thing that we've talked about. We don't have to get into the whole thing. It's very similar to what we're talking about like Star Wars. There are times if you don't believe in any political person, this is a problem that we have. I remember back in the day, this was way more of a thing that people, would do. I don't agree with

a lot of what they're saying with that particular thing, hey, you know what? I don't mind it. But now it's like, well, no, that's not what our team is supposed to say. Our team is supposed to say whatever this person says is right. And our team is supposed to say whatever this person says is wrong.

Tariffs on all movies outside of the U.S., I mean, tariffs in general always, to me, but I feel like we need a plan to get movie shot back here again. And you've got to do a thing, though, if you're going to do that and you're going to put tariffs on, you've got to also find ways to cut the costs and not make, I mean, nobody shoots in Los Angeles anymore because it's too expensive. You got to find ways to balance that. Fine, you're going to tax people for, or have tariffs for people outside,

shoot movie outside. What's our benefits from shooting here? If you give us benefits from shooting then that makes sense. So I like the idea if you can give us benefits here and make more people. But the question is, how do you do that? Yeah, I mean, this is a much more complex answer to deep in the world. But I will say I'll only push back on you on one thing is I agree with you. I think in the past we used to be able to sit down and have comrades because people sat down in good faith and leaders sat down in good faith.

That man has no good faith about anything. So sitting down with him or giving him praise for anything he's doing is a waste of time. My thing on the other side of is, I agree with you, the tariffs thing, we need to deal with that and make it better or easier to make these films and keep a lot of productions in the country. I think that's a great idea. I just don't trust them to not have their old ulterior motives and nefarious interests in negotiating something like that. All right. Next one after that. Johnny, geez, I'm hesitant to write this.

Thank you for talking about Kirk the other week. Like him or not, what happened was horrible. I know Roko wasn't a fan, but at least he has a heart. Because that's the whole point where we both agreed on. Yeah, no matter what we were just talking about. Yeah. I couldn't believe the loss of humanity in people, of some of the videos and people that we know,

the things that were that were said on social, I couldn't believe it. I was like, where's our humanity? I'm like, you know, I'm not talking about you like, yeah, everything that he stood for was the great. I'm going to tell me that. We're not talking about that. Right.

Like the humanity of it is like, it was nuts. It was nuts. It was nuts. I couldn't believe it. even some people a year ago. I can't believe that you wouldn't say that this is a thing to cheer from. What are you talking about? I think it was a horrible thing because discourse should never lead.

Never. Political violence. Never. I mean, I think he said some pretty horrible stuff. And I think the other side is trying to paint him into to be this saint, which he wasn't with a lot of. That's irrelevant. That's irrelevant. And I'm just saying both sides are being incorrect.

Sorry, both of the extreme sides. Extreme sides of these things are painting this incorrect. I know, but I'll tell you that, but wait, but should not have been murdered for his opinions and points of views. Okay, fair, but I'm saying extreme, but again, even if you're even if you're using it for

political gain or whatever you're to, to me, and I think that's wrong. Right. But that's not as wrong as cheering for someone who was, who was killed. In my opinion. Okay. Yeah, in my opinion. Aaron Ambrose, Rog is right. Right now, people

don't associate your channel with anime. If there's one show to take a risk and continue, it's this, left fans find. I'm going to try, I'm going to keep it going for season one. We'll see how it does. But I also thought that the Transformers' 1986 reaction wouldn't do well, and it's doing pretty well. So you never know.

There you go. I am too fly cam. Spaceball 2 feels too late. Disney put Star Wars in a coma. Look, if it's, if, look, naked, it's hard because naked gun didn't do as well as I wanted it. You're okay. But I don't know.

I'm, my, my fingers are crossed. Yeah, but I also think there's a, there, I just don't trust, you know, that, because I mean, that history of the world part two was horrific. So I don't, and I'm not really the biggest Josh Gadd person. So we'll see how that through. Was he in that also? No, no, just, yes, I think he was. Yes, I think he was.

But I mean, we'll see how this one plays out. But there's a lot to make fun of. So they might nail it. It's like the scary movie guys. I think they're a little long in the tooth, but they'll try to be funny about it. Give it a shot and see what, what, what you can do. All right, next one. Tristan Green, what's up, Tristan?

Did you see the botched spot and finish on Smackdown, Rough Knife, Rene? It was, it was rough all the way around. I mean, she busted Jade open. But I can't, here's the thing. Yes, she should have kicked out. If you're the referee and she'll be out to three. If shoulders are down, if they leave it, right, right. If shoulders are down, you count three.

You answer in the back and you go, what do we do if shoulders down? You can never. Shoulders are down. You never do. Look, look, when we're looking at, shoulders are down. You've now, you've, you've, you've, you've pulled back the curtain outside of unscripted. You've, you've, you've, or whatever they're called, you've pulled that back in the middle of a show. You cannot do that.

She, and to her credit, she came out on Twitter and I'm only human and make mistakes. And make a mistake, it happens. But if you're triple H, you go, you count that three. Like, and there are other referees in the past. I like, shoulders are down. I counted three. What do you want to do? We've got to make this thing look real.

It may just be that they were, but you know, they watched from the guerrilla position, Christian, and they have the earpiece. Maybe they told her. Maybe you're right. You could 100% agree with you in the world. Well, then it's their fault. And whoever it is, you count the three. If you show what you're not going to come out and say, well, I told them not to do that. I blame on Bruce Pritchard.

Shelf presence. Rumor is she's a survivor of Luce Academy. Oh, uh, Amy, possibly. Oh, that's cool. I am to fly cam. another wolf and cub transport story star's program i am sick of the the lone wolf and cub thing i'm kind of i'm sick of it but if they can do it again and it works like i said i'm going to go with benefit for the doubt because i like the team it's always for me it's always a team and i like

this team but yeah the lone wolf and cub thing is is so boring simon section so it's the batman versus the brave and the bold i will never say never again this will happen if so i'm betting on Meow Meow Aided them. I am I a party I missed out in my college years to to Tallahassee. Simon, I don't really understand all that. I understand some of it. Now, this is crashing out.

I love Simon at death. I think Simon likes to put us talking riddles with us sometimes. So it's Batman versus Brave and the Bold, I get. I will never say never again. This will happen. If so, I'm betting on Miami, I ate them. Lost. So never say never again was, I think was the James Bond,

the unofficial not James Bond film that was a James Bond film with Sean Connery from the 80s. So maybe he's referencing that. So what about I'm betting on Meow Meow, eight of them? I don't know. So you're gone. You're gone. We're both off.

Okay. A party I missed out my college is what I guess he's talking about. It's a Tallahassee for films school? Yeah, I guess film and film and acting school. Yeah. All right. Hey, Rogo. Rewatch the movie New Mutants still is pretty bad.

What do you think was the point of them making this movie storyline? I think you were just kind of capitalized on anything X-Men at that point. I never saw it. They were trying to relaunch the X-Men for the younger. They're essentially trying to do Young Avengers through the X-Men with New Mutants. But by the time that movie came out with all the delays, it was already a lame duck. So, yeah. Casual Scrolls.

Do you think, you guys think Will Smith should do a Netflix roast on holds part, comedy, a special to win back public opinion? No. Nah, he wouldn't be able to handle it. His instincts are so off right now. I agree. You wouldn't be able to handle it. People, especially, I mean, you couldn't do that and not invite Chris Rock.

I mean, you'd have to. And you'd have to lean, you'd have to really lean in on the Jada stuff. And there's no way, you'll let him do it. No way. No way. Rohit, Rasha. This reminds me of Vince running WV.E. Last year when he pushed wrestling fans that didn't like.

I can't get behind Ray. Happy for her fans, though. I mean, look, maybe they can win you back over. I mean, I think that it's because those movies were just so shitty that, people have a bad run, but did you think she was bad in it? Why don't people love Adam Driver more than, there's nothing Adam Driver did that was better than anything Daisy Ridley did is right? I thought it was nonsense how much people like fall all over themselves to praise Adam Driver

and his emo performance of that character. It's insane to me. I thought they were both equally good. And you can have equal flaws, but they're both equally good. Yeah, and I hated where they went with him at the end. I hated it. It kept them evil. I love what Travaro was going to do with them.

I hate it. What JJ did with him. Stupid. Aiden Dardy. Hey, Christian, super happy you're enjoying demons there and you're staying with the dub.

Just FYI, if you want to add another series to get anime viewers to your channel, wait. Oh, there it is. The final season.

Thank you for that. My Hero Academia is coming out in the next two weeks, and I do think you'd really like that series. And I would imagine that the following the show has. It'll be actively

looking for reactors. Yeah, but I'd have to catch up to the rest of it. Yeah. I couldn't just pop into it. So we'll see. I mean,

if anime becomes our Saturday and Sundays, and maybe that's the case. I don't know yet. We got to, we're, we're, uh, we're a thing.

We're thinking. A Rago thoughts of alien earth finale. I like the show overall, but I don't like how they ended it. Though I thought it was going to tie more into the alien movie. Now the ship gets put on course for planet. This is the other one. This is another one that I was,

you know, it's like, there's certain shows that I just, like, like I said, I'm going to finish all a task. I'm locked it. I'm locked it.

I'm locked it. I'd probably go back to Tulsa King and watch that. Oh, yeah, I got to watch the new one. Yeah, Alien Earth. Like, it was, I liked what I was watching, but I was, I completely, like, I just tailed off of it. I didn't go back. I think I'm on, like, episode three, and I don't know if I'm going to go back to it.

It's so good, man. Episode five is the best episode of the series. And then six, seven, six and seven are good, but eight is a little bit of letdown, but that was, I think, because of the COVID restrictions that happened as they were about to finish the suit. Yeah, so the finale is a little underwhelming, but it is still a damn good show. Aidan follows up. Part three, during the hype of that final season, just the thought. Have a good money.

Really good thoughts. I've heard a lot of them of good things about that show, just a matter if we continue on with it. With anime. Johnny Patricea, I don't get the theory gossing is Cade Skywalker. They're not going to do Skywalker. Yeah. Yeah, they're not going to do that. No way.

Yeah. Okay. Or that she's Mara Jade, which I think is insane. Dingus McNally. Love the way Leo says, homie, one battle after it. others hilarious his performance reminds me a lot of the dude from big lovowski 100% he's got a lot of dude that that whole scene was hilarious like it's such a dad moment yeah such a dad moment uh ninks 2 890 dudes whaleis island is one my favorites of the year other small one this year i saw are twinless

oh hi and sacramento all pretty good happy monday i really liked wallis island a lot yeah really really like that yeah great great movie i think that's why i'm excited to get those movies on the Critics choice, absolutely. Some of the smaller ones, like Twenders, and stuff like that. Nathan Drake, Wednesday, season two viewers are down 40%. Says Netflix. This is the worst Pugsy we've ever had. It wasn't the kid's fault.

I want to make that clear because I said the last time. His storyline was atrocious. It was atrocious. And every time I was like, let's go, wrap it up. It wasn't the kid's fault. It was where they went with the storyline and calling that thing slurp. Every time they called the zombie slurp, I wanted to bash my head against the television. I didn't mind the series though as much as I guess it wasn't as

it wasn't as it yeah it didn't have that same magic that the first season had. Maybe just maybe don't let your lead actress who's very young weigh in on all the scripts and weigh in on all the storyline. Do that for season two and be executive producer. Yes and I think that's where you have problems. And so I think that's why this didn't come out as well as people were hoping and you know, lesson learned. And I think Jenna's, Jenna needs a hit man because

it's not looking good right now. No offense, it's not looking good. I'll do season three and that'll be the end of it. A. Rago, can't wait for your and Sam's interstellar reaction on my top five movies ever. They're shooting it this week. We actually did shoot insomnia. Insomnia is coming out tomorrow. Oh, you did? Yeah, we did it. We did it.

So, and you know what's funny? I don't think I saw the second half of that movie. I didn't remember it at all when I was watching it. I remember the first half and I was like, when did I start that movie and never finish it? Yeah. But that was it. So I'm excited for people to check that out.

I'll be up on there on tomorrow. Yeah. Space Jews, do you think the three eye Atlas is an alien spacecraft? I don't know what it is. Do you, have you been following this three eye Atlas? No. Oh my God. Just look it up.

So there's a Harvard scientist or things like this thing that's, they've been tracking this three eye atlas that's been moving at a crazy speed this harvard uh a guy actually interviewed uh obvi lobe believes that it's not just a comment or an asteroid or two that it could be actually n h i non-human intelligence that um but they're going to track it at the end of october so we'll know a little bit more about what it is but no you know what it's Fuck it. Why not? Everything else is going crazy. I don't know what it is. Trilock 277. Do you, did you two listen to Emma Watson and the Jay Shedon podcast, Rogen?

This is where she says, so she still loves JK despite her views, really like Watson had to say regarding this, quite refreshing. Yeah, but, but apparently there's going back and forth and J.K. Rowling had some comment about it afterwards, too. Of course. So I don't, so I don't pay attention to that stuff. JK needs the controversy. That's the problem with some people is that they can. could be controversial, but they can't seem to come to the table. And if you can't come to the table, then don't waste my time. All social media is the far as to.

It's the absolute short. See, Black, media should stop covering every tweet and interview that gun does. It's becoming annoyingly act like Feigey. I mean, you get information. Look, it's no doubt. If you're getting information from the source, I still don't understand why. If you have, if you're trying to build up, if you're this, you know, one of the main guys in D.C., like I mentioned that you got that D.C.

I think they still have the show with Koi and. and all them. It's like, oh, man, if I'm, if I'm James Gunwell and, hey, somebody tweeted something out, you know, what I'm going to do. I'm going to address all these tweets. I'm going to address them. We're going to make a video today. We're going to make a video and we're going to do, whether it's Koi or any other host. And they ask him, okay, these things were addressed. And then he addresses it there. You get a whole bunch of hits on your channel. You get, you can probably make a little money on it. You get more people who are pushing it. You get more notice for that show in general. And break news on that show, you can do that. I don't understand what are you doing

on your own social media platform. It's not necessary. He doesn't control the show. I keep telling about his ego. He does. He doesn't control that show. The DC show. DC controls the show. WB. controls. But he's DC. He's not Peter Safran's DC. Zazov is in charge, but he's not the end-all, be-all, right? And they creatively is, I don't know. Creatively, yes. Steve, what teaser trailer comes out by end of the year? Why, you go, stop this. What teaser trailer comes out, I think we do? Like a big one?

You mean like the big summer ones? Spider-Man. I think Spider-Man. Yeah, Spider-Man probably. Yeah. Johnny, I was talking about the handball by Mo Sala. But it was an handball. So, again, Johnny, what are you talking about?

He never touched that ball. He was being yanked down. You see the replay. He never touched him. Julius Wyatt. I guess I'm on the wrong side of post-conversation. but happy to hear that people are praising the score. UJ. Dogs will never beat Bown, I guess.

I'm just still excited about Florida. Dude. Yeah, I know. Oh, yeah. I know. Trey Porter, Oba, is my number two movie of the year behind sinners. I never saw it. Oh, this, Oba.

I'm like, what movie's that? First time. What's Oba? L.O.L. Yeah. Oh, I need the Obah. Yes, it's a great movie. It's fighting sinners for my number one spot.

I'm going to have to do. This is going to be, I'm this is one of the more exciting years in quite a while for me. I'm already trying to figure out like where does sinners hit? Where does, uh, weapons hit? Where does, uh, where does,

uh, where are all these movies hit that I love? I don't know where they, where they land. Yeah, I think sinners are still my number one. Obas two and then warfare is three, which just came out on HBO max.

Highly recommend warfare. Um, right now that's the three, but there's more stuff come. 54. 54. Can we get to let's go. Let's get to 80.

you're at roxy and yeah roxy tomorrow oh he's gonna be rxy's always tough kate bond d what's better for you a fancy breakfast i like breakfast great lunch buffet or expensive dinner while you don't have to pay well probably the dinner because john's gonna owe me two of them Jesus. You do. You'll me too. That's your limitations. Nope. Steaks. Yummy.

So I would say the expensive dinner that John Merck's. You know what? I'm also going to be looking forward to having a glass of wine with John shooting. There you go. What was the last time we had a, I don't even think we sat down for dinner. Years? Yeah.

Yeah. How about yourself? We'll have an impromptu showdown. Shmodeown. Expensive dinner, obviously, well, I don't have to pay, which is what happened over the weekend. Went to a nice Italian restaurant. Oh, early. And Lily's, uh,

sister paid for the entire meal. Very nice. Simon's section. Octopusy was the other James Bond film that was more successful. If I was at that part, I would be a wallflower tugging in my own leaf. That's fair. All right, Simon. Now I've a little bit more sense. Thank you. Right, right. That came out the same year. Yes. Never seen ever again. 56 thus far as we are approaching the end of the show here.

Johnny Petriza. Rogan, if you could green light any wrestling biopic, what would it be? But by Randy Savage, right? Randy Savage. But they're doing it. Did you see that? Yeah. There was a report last week that, who was? It was, what, the, the, that Kahnem from Saturday Live is,

Keenan Thompson? Yes, he's like a big wrestling guy. He's a big savage guy. He's not going to be in it. He's going to, he's producing it. Okay. I mean, a lot of people would have put their head down when they heard, Seth Rogen was producing anything, too.

He produces some quality shit. That's a fair point. That's a fair point. Or Jordan P.L. doing get out. Yeah. So, like, I mean, I keep my, I keep my, I keep my, I'll keep, you know, yeah, I just love Randy. I love Randy. That would be the one for me, like a non-involved Vince McMahon doing like pulling no punches

Vince McMahon story would be crazy. Yeah. Because the Randy one is, is tricky, right? You've got to get somebody that's not doing an impression. Right. And it's hard not to with his voice. And you got to get someone to play Hogan. Like, you've got to get the type of.

Which one? Miss Elizabeth. Miss Elizabeth's not as, you can cast Miss Elizabeth. Like you got to cast Hogan. You got to cast like all these people. You know, you got to cast all these wrestlers because you can do it one of two ways.

You can cast in the way that you did well, mostly in the Iron Claw, where they botched the Rick Flair. They, that Harley race, great, great. Rick Flair, terrible. Or you can also start, I mean, a lot of the wrestlers that they cast in like Young Rock, terrible.

Yeah. Terribles, like cartoons. I've worked in the show. I was like, this is horrific. It was terrible, like cartoons. So you got a really, you got to really narrow and not cartoon versions of it. I guess Rick Flair is the other choice. Not involved Rickler.

Yeah. Not. I, you know what? I wouldn't, I wouldn't mind having an involved Rick Flair. Rick Flair does not seem like the kind of person. And from all of his interviews and everything he talks about, that he's going to be like, well, you know what? Don't put that in there.

He went crazy about the dark side of the ring two years ago. The plane ride where he exposed his penis allegedly to a steward. It's like, this is all a lie. I've never do that. It's like, come on. All right. Unheard Sirens Incorporated, Remy. Lucasfilm should make a biopic about the making of a new hope starring Deep Arishel as George Lucas.

Someone else should make it, not Lucasfilm. Right. Because, again, same reason we're talking about this. it's like because you're not going to you're not going to really show the everything that went down nothing like july matth garrett one proud and every another and loses all its money come on matthew give me a break i'm jealous i don't make films i'm jealous i don't make films i'm gonna criticize it or bought a laser disc player at a garage sale that's amazing some older movies are great watching them in their ogy formats that a remaster was can be worse i remember my my late friend

Brian had a he was one of the first people ever that I had a laser disc but it was like the first DVD it was the best yeah yeah if you don't get blade right on on laser disc you're missing out that was one of the most amazing experiences of my life is seeing that on laser disc old friend of mine from florida state reigns car he had a laser disc when I first got to florida state back in i got crazy and i watched that movie at his apartment it was amazing joyous romer made the first view with you guys hey all what's your hot take on mall shadow lord uh uh I don't know if I have a hot take. I think it looks great.

That's the animated one, right? Let's see, yeah. The same, the same we're, uh, produced, which, which that's what gives me,

he's producing it. But I just, I'm so bored with that, with that era of, of animation. It's like, let's get out of there to something else. It's like,

Clooney just loves living in that same tired. Let's do the same stories and characters. Again, clone troopers, mall. It's like, let's go. find something else out.

But it's because of Witwer that I'm like, okay, Twitter really has a grasp on these characters. Whitworth's the reason I'm excited about it. Come for the outlaws hot take and get the Harlow. No, it's true. You got a hot take from Outlaw here.

You can't ask how about the movie when it wages war on our worldview. It's a trash movie that was cooked in the middle of the woke nonsense. But Matthew, Gary, you could watch, Matthew, I'm knowing well enough now from these comments.

Yeah. You would say everything that comes out from Toy Story, if that comes out, to a Skittles commercial as well. You're on the front lines of that. You're over-exposed that thing. He is a Fox News indoctrinated kid. It's my opinion, my opinion. And most of America, which the bulk of box those consent, doesn't care about the Academy

Award. They're just burning money at this point. No, you don't understand how the business works for them as far as... He knows 10 people. And he's like, most of America. You know 10 people, Matthew, if that many people. So what are you talking about? But the academy, I know America, do you know?

I share his sentiment about the average everyday person. They don't care about the Oscar thing. It's true. I mean, I share that. That side of what he's saying there is true. That's why the ratings are always down. There's also a lot more on TV now. None of the people, like Sam, Chris, a lot of my friends.

They were like, Are you watching the Oscars? No, I'm watching Oscars. No, nobody watches the Oscars. Outside of our thing and some other people that's tuning in for outfits and things too. But it doesn't mean that it's not important for their business.

Their industry, it is very important. It is very important for bonuses, jobs, other things, clout. So you're wrong and right at the same time. Johnny, do you think Roddy Piper is popular to get a biopic and do all at the box his story is 100% his story is his story would be great I would love and I'm and I'm kind of mad at myself as much as I love Randy and he's my favorite wrestler rady was my friend um and roddy had a great story I used to love like see I used to co-host ronty piper showed with him a couple times my friend steve was out he was always called me to co-host it was one of the coolest phone calls

ever got so rottie wanted to know if you wanted a co-host while I was out of town and I'm like wow And we had the same conversation on the air like four different times, which was my favorite thing ever because he was like, he would talk about his boxing match with Mr. T at WrestleMania 2. And I would tell him, I'd be like, Roddy, I was there in the crowd. He would, every time, John, he did the same thing.

He goes, wait a minute. You were there. I was like, yeah, Ronnie, I was there. I was there. I was there. And he's like, yeah, I got hit and that a couple times. Roddy was the best. Roddy was so nice to me.

He, he was, it was all about his family, man. His kids and his wife, he was, yeah, I loved Ronnie. Aargo Demon Affleck trailer on Netflix looked pretty good. They showed that trailer hit not too long ago, right? Yeah, Rip.

It looks good. Okay. I'm curious about that. All right. All right. Right now, that was it. 61. A lot of great questions, though.

Yeah, we talked about. Yeah, the AI actress is interesting. It's something that we knew it was coming. And it's also going to, yeah, it's going to happen a lot more. And once they have this AI actress now, then like, I always use Bruce Willis as the example. Eventually, whether it's two years, years from now or 20 years from now, they're going to say, hey, we want to make a new diehard movie with a 35-year-old Bruce Wallace.

And they're going to do it. Yeah. It's going to happen. I mean, they're already making like, dude, I'm watching like these YouTube videos now with like Luke Skywalker interacting with a young Luke Skywalker interacting with all like these, after the Jedi story. And they're great. And they're in the early Atari stages of AI.
