All right, new rumor. There's a new rumor every single day. New rumor. And Avengers, end game. Is it going to end game? Yeah, I'm going to watch it again? No. Doomsday.

Is it getting delayed? That is the question. Kevin Fagy, is he actually going to step down? When is he going to do it? Is there a plan in place? That's a rumor also. Lanterns, there's a new image that came out. There's more about the actual story.

itself, Superman, some screenings that took place. The other day we talked about it. They said, hey, everything's on track. It was good. There's another one. Now it says, hey, maybe not. It stinks. Who do you believe?

That and more. There's some other things I'm sure we'll discuss on the show here today with myself, Winston and Koi. And I got a chance to watch the first two episodes of Daredevil Born again. I did an immediate reaction to those episodes. My full, like my non-spoiler review. you will drop the day that it comes out. But the actual reaction will also come out that day, too. And so it's going to be, I'll, I'm going to give my thoughts because like I said, it's just,

I was just able to do a social reaction to it. So I'm not really allowed to go into detail. So I'll go real quick. I'll tell the guys kind of what I thought. And I'll tell you guys in the meantime. So it's myself. It's Winston A. Marshall. Coe Johns are all back together again. I'm going to be completely honest to you. I almost, I almost was going to text the guys and cancel. the show today because I wanted to watch Daredova. I was so invested. I was like, nah, I kind of miss Winston and Coy, so I'll, I'll do it. But I was locked in. I was

real locked in. I can tell you that. So I guess that's a little bit of a spoiler of what I thought. It's Cates and Cals. Let's do this shit. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to Christian Harlow show. Caps and Cals here today. On this Friday, it is

myself and Winston A. Marshall. Coy, Jondro, the crew, is back indeed we are. Hello, gentlemen, how you doing? Oh, no, you're not doing too good because I can't hear you. Now I can hear you. Winston muted himself for some reason.

I don't know what's happening here. It's still, no, I can't hear you guys? Coy? Yeah, can you hear me? Winston? No, Winston always has this problem. It's always muted for some reason. I'm glad you chose your avocados at law over Matt Murdox. I heard that was maybe on the fence.

Yeah, yeah, no we could hear. Listen, so I, I told the crew, Seth yesterday, and I'll tell you also, you'll be happy to hear this. I've never been talking about it forever. You know, one of the reasons that we moved the show to, too, is hit the gym four days last week. I saw your post. Are you doing the same thing? Yeah. So it's good.

I didn't like day today before the show. What about me now? Oh, hey. There you know. Damn. Anyway, anyway, so we are back. The three of us are back talking all this stuff. So I'll get into it real quick.

I just post, I can't really talk too much about it because the, um, non-spoiler will come out once the embargo lifts. But all I'll say is that with dear, my initial thoughts for Daredevil born again were thank God they decided to retool this thing and go back to what worked in the first place because it still works. Uh, and it works damn good. It was, it's, uh, it's fantastic. It's fantastic.

So, and I like the kind of, legal crime the the procedural thing that they have going on with it with the legal stuff but it still incorporates the greater storyline of what both matt murdock and fisk are going through so it's it's wonderful it really is so far so that's but it's two episodes i'm glad we have another adult disney plus marvel show i feel like loki they realize they can do something a little more heady and then deadpool obviously did gangbusters it feels like they're acknowledging that we've been doing this for almost 20 years. Like we should have some range. Yeah. Yeah.

All right. So we're going to move into some other big topics that got a ton of them this week. But before we do it, do you guys want to, A, do you want to guess who's in the lead and B, you want to guess how many? Roxy. I'm just going to say, 5,000. Good questions. Yeah, I'm going to say it's over 9,000.

Over 9,000 questions. Well, you're right about one thing. It's Roxy. Roxy and Mike, as Mike jumped again. Because last week, last week it wasn't Roxy. last week it was Steph and Mike and this week it was Roxy and Mike, Mike jumped, 250. 250 is what we're working with.

So this is just the new norm now. And she's, those two are the only ones this week that even hit over, over 100. So yeah, yeah. So they just knocked that apart. Anyway,

aiming for second, living the dream. Yeah, go for second. See what happened. Live that dream, maybe. All right,

here's the first story, guys. And this is, it's a new rumor. that's out there. And so we'll discuss it as such. Avengers Doomsday, the release could be delayed for a surprising reason is the new report. And Coco Floss is here. I goco floss. Beat it. Okay. Rumors, Avengers Doom's Day release could be delayed for a surprising reason. Avengers Doom's Day began shooting this April, but according to a new rumor, there's been some talk about delaying the movie,

and we'll see Robert Downing Jr. stood up as Dr. Dr. Doom. Read on for details. Marvel Studios plans to begin shooting Avengers Doomsday in April. The movie will see the release will then see release next May with Avengers Secret War set to fall one year later. As many of you have pointed out, it's an ambitious plan, but one, they make work with Infinity War and endgame. Much has been said about the Avengers Doomsday script not quite being where it needs to be.

And on the hot mic, Jeff Schneider, shared rumblings about a possible release date delay. He says, I heard a rumor that Doomsday might push. I think that the release date could push to the next slot. They don't know who's in the movie. That's what I heard. I heard we still don't know who's ultimately going to be in this movie and who's not. We don't know who's going to be available. I still think they're figuring out what that ensemble looks like.

That would line up with Benedict Cumberbatch saying he wasn't set to appear in Avengers Doomsday, only confirmed a few years later that Dr. Strange does, in fact, have a role in the movie. It's shocking to think the Marvel Studios doesn't have its cast locked down, but they're all in-demand actors, and we've already heard chatter about a stuntman having to fill in for Tom Holland. if Avengers doomsday moves, then the only other vacant slot on the calendar is November 6, 2026. It's not outside the realm of possibility, because don't forget,

the original plan was for Avengers the Kang Dynasty to drop on May 2nd, 2025, with Avengers Secret Wars following on November 7, 2025. Nothing is confirmed at this stage, but with the next Avengers movie going from shooting separately back to back, it does feel like the clock is ticking when it comes, meaning those plan may release dates. Oh, wait. Addressing the Robert Dunning Jr.'s MCU return as Dr. Doom at the Electric State Premier writer Stephen McPhealy said,

When I got the news, this is where it was going. I thought it was pretty electric. There's an understandable desire to bring Downey back to do it as Tony Stark would betraying what I thought was a pretty lovely ending for him in endgame. The Russo Brothers were on hand with Joe revealing it's all in London. We're shooting them back to back. A lot of work. We may or may not survive it.

We'll see, but we're very excited about it. We found a way into the story and we think it's going to be challenging for Ron It's challenging for us to execute. And it's really exciting for us. It gets us out of bed and do it. Well, that's good. I mean, obviously, that's what you want to hear people say. As far as it getting pushed,

Corey, do you think how much you put in the fact that it could be getting moved? And the reason why is because, like, you know, again, it does kind of line up a little bit if you think about it. Because you knew with all of the movies that were leading towards Avengers Infinity, Avengers Infinity War,

there was like this narrative that was pushing towards that with every movie that came out. That hasn't been the case recently. You don't know what the hell is going on with these movies. So they just feel like, oh, we need an Avengers movie to really say, hey, look what we got here. And they're like, well, what do we, we don't really know what we're doing yet. Is that a possibility? What do you think? I think that the Doomsday Avengers movie will have to kind of assemble Avengers. Like we had the Avengers assembled in the first film and then with Age of Ultron onward, they were teams. We don't have an Avengers team right now. So I think a big part of what that movie has to accomplish is bringing everyone together.

Because I assume Thunderbolts is going to be new, you know, takes on these characters and things will evolve in that story. But I don't think we'll end Thunderbolts like here's the Avengers. And then we know Fantastic Four is at least, you know, partially, if not majority elseworld. And that leaves us leading into Doomsday. So I would expect the movie to have to be pretty huge. I assume it's going to be like an Infinity War and Endgame where it feels like a part one and part two. I can even see it being a three part and having Secret Ors be split into two parts.

but no matter what, Doom's Day has to assemble an Avengers team and give us all the Doom context, even if he is briefly and Fantastic Four, and it's supposed to come out in 14 months. It's February's last day right now. Tomorrow is March. This movie's due out May 2nd, 2026.

That's tomorrow. So I don't know how you could do production and post-production at that time. I know Marvel traditionally has a lot of their post-production done before they even start filming. That's how they were able to be, you know, starting Fantastic Four as Super Bowl. Superman wrapped because a lot of the film is done before, you know, they're actually there.

But that's still 14 months for an Avengers movie and they're just going into production from the sounds of things. That's crazy. You're buying this then. And if so, does it get pushed in November, like, potentially? Like, or does it get pushed a full year? I think November is possible. I think a year is tricky optics. I think Marvel is fighting two things. They're fighting, you know, a realistic shooting schedule, which is impossible with something this big that quick. But they're also fighting the fan expectation and, you know, people being like, oh, Marvel's dead. And then that's their big comeback Avengers film. Like,

no matter what Fantastic Four does, an Avengers movie feels like an event. And I think FF will feel like an event, certainly, but not to the same scale as an Avengers film. So I think pushing it a year, I think there's going to be a lot of people worried about Marvel and Disney, all that. So I think November is better optics. But if you need a year, take a year. Like, I hope that you can only release it once. It's only going to exist and however it's done. So I think they should, shouldn't they shouldn't have had a release date announced to begin with. What do you think? I fully agree with that.

That should definitely not have announced a date. If this is what you're doing, push it to May because the one thing that has remained consistent. Push it to May, a full year. If you're not ready, if you can't get it done in a year's time, and that's understandable since you're shooting essentially one giant epic you're splitting into two, may has been associated directly with the offenders. That has been their release date to do this every single,

movie and April May right right I mean it started in April for that first one and then it shifted into May and kind of just stayed right that became the spot um to kick off the summer and everything else like that I think here's my thing I know that they needed the a lot to write the ship the whole kang Jonathan Majors thing didn't work out the multiverse has been just a complete travesty you've had god knows how many different director changes all sorts of execs getting fired introduction of new shows that work, that don't work, all sorts of threads that have been pulled at this particular juncture. I would be on the same page that I think everybody would prefer that this just be

a below your mind movie and you get it done right, then you, well, we got to meet whatever time frame and then things just don't align. And I think if you're already feeling this behind, why are you putting yourself up for potential failure of a, yo, let's just push it a couple of months to November versus just give yourself the extra year to get it done. Because when you were doing Infinity War and end game before, not only had you already built up in the proper direction, you would set a plan and were able to follow through with it. You've had the changes plan three or four times now.

So I would much rather you just give yourself the proper runway, you know, no pun intended for all the planes that have been happening right now and give yourself proper runway to get this done. I respectfully disagree. That's all right. So it's a matter of like, I think that you're pushing it back to Corey's earlier point. I think that it's just optic-wise and then also where you're going to start to then have to push back other things where, whether it's X-Men and that you start pushing it. Everything has to get pushed back a year. Push-back a year.

Push-back six months. It's already a piece of real estate that's there. And you can still, you don't necessarily even have to move the second one if everything is kind of moving in, if you can get it moving in the, if you can get it moving in the, right order. I definitely agree with that you shouldn't rush it. I mean, I'm not discreet with that. I just think that pushing it a full year is going to, you're essentially pushing the whole slate back, and then you're pushing the X-win back, and you're pushing

everything else back. And that could be a big problem, especially when you need this movie to get people excited, as you guys both said, it's the Avengers movie. That's a big, huge movie. Now, I don't disagree that that May is a better spot for a movie like that than November is,

but November can still give you a you can own November and you can push that into December and really own and I'm surprised that they didn't even try to go to December but they're if you're going to do they take the Star Wars typical slot I wonder what yeah but I think what comes out there's some there's some big Disney movie that comes out and is it is it is it Avatar is it is an Avatar three and then four the two years ago I was just assume it's a possible it's possible you know I can look it up in a second um but I just think that yeah doing it that that far out is just it it could be an issue especially because you're an end if you are going to have fantastic four finally get you to a place because it would be the next movie out right you

you'd be what two two years away from when you released it real quick i'd looked it up to december 2026 it's a canceled star wars movie so right do the other stuff yeah the other stuff that's kind of slated there untitled universal jimongy three Shrek 5 and Dune Messiah is on Christmas. Oh yeah, see, so I don't know. So, I mean, yeah, who do you?

I wouldn't go up against Dune. That's so similar to an audience. I wouldn't go up against Jumanji. I wouldn't go up again. I mean, I wouldn't go up against, I mean, Shrek is going to take the kids away too. So, I mean, it's already pretty stacked in December, but let's look at November.

Well, right now it says there's a, there's universal, yeah, the untitled Marvel movie is set for November 6th. So, and then there's a, Untitled Universal Event Film, whatever that is, Hunger Games, Untitled Warner Brothers Film, untitled Disney Animation. And then Narnia in IMAX,

but that's only for like two or three weeks or something. But the only other thing that I'm seeing here, I mean, I know it's slightly different audiences, but right before that, the week before is Jordan Peel's fourth directoral debut or directoral film. So that's the only other thing,

if it has any sort of get-out-type legs, if he's bringing that kind of heat again, then that's something to be mine. Sure, but I mean, but you look at scale-wise. It's very different as far as scale. If you're going to decide if you're going to go into December, if you're going to go into November, sure.

You know that the Jordan Peel audience is going to show up. I make the point all the time that Jordan Peel is one of those people right now that you're just going to see the movie because Jordan Peel is directing a movie. You don't care what it's about. But it's also not a $200 million movie. Sure. So anyway, I think that they, moving at six months won't hurt it dramatically if they don't really have an idea.

Now, I do think that they should move it if they don't have it ready. That I agree with you, Winston. If it's like, if it's like we have to try to get it done, get it done, and we have to hit that date.

That could be a disaster in general, especially you don't even know who the hell's in the movie. Yeah. And it's huge. Like there's so many moving parts in an Avengers film. And like they're not going to have enough doom in Just Fantastic 4 to give him the relevance you need. So it's a doom movie and assembling Avengers.

Yeah. You haven't locked in your cast. You haven't locked in like all, all that stuff. I mean, yeah. 14 months is crazy. Like at the end of the day. Like 14 months is an indie film. Not a,

not a tiny indie film, but like a medium, like a $40 to $80 million movie. It could even potentially be a normal Marvel movie, but not, not just an Avengers, the double booked Avengers movie because they're shooting them at the same time.

You know what I'm saying? Like that even makes it worse. Yeah. And I, and I, I spoke when I said indie, I meant like mid-budget. Like this is a mid-budget timeline and it's not a mid-budget movie. Yeah.

I, it's interesting. And I want to see how they're going to, how they're going to play that because it is a, it's a big thing that they will need. And like I said, if you have Fantastic Four comes out in July of this year and then essentially you're supposed to have Avengers, if they set up the Avengers, which it looks like they're going to because that's the next movie out is the Avengers, right? There's nothing else coming out after that. You have that full year.

If not, when was the last time Marvel had two years between a movie? I mean, last year they only had Deadpool. They had a lot of shows. But that was still a year. I mean, Deadpool was still a year from the last,

I mean, not even. I mean, what was, I think it was like a November and then July or something. Right. And that's the first time they've done that since they started. What else is on the docket?

right now other than the Avengers movies and I guess Spider-Man and Spider-Man it's the only other thing is you can try and Spider-Man it forward guys I know how we solve this make blade I mean haven't we been trying to do that let you know what last announcement for Black History Month blade is officially a go it will be taking the offenders spy and offenders will take blades yeah I won't blade but yeah it's crazy like this is such a different spot for them they've got like what nine properties in 2025 and next year It's like, yeah, I don't know.

I don't know how they're going to make it work. But we'll get more details soon. What do you guys think? Put your thoughts in there. Let us know, do you think that they should move it? Should they try to stay on course with it? What say you? All right, before we get into other topics, I'm going to tell you guys,

maybe not daredevil born again season two ads scream and scooly do it Matthew Willard coming in high. So this is a report here from Comic Book movie. La La La La La La Lille. The Daredevil boarding in Season 2 cast has just expanded with the addition of a bona fide screen icon Matthew Lillard.

You can find everything when we know about his MCU debut after the jump. Cameras have reportedly started rolling on season two in New York today and Deadline has shared some big casting news for the show. The trade reveals that Matthew Lillard is the first major addition to Daredevil Born Against second season ahead of next week's two episode premiere. There's no word on who the screen icon will play in the series, and honestly, it could be anyone. However, given the adult tone of his revival, we anticipate seeing a different side of Lillard,

while he's fondly remembered a shaggy, the actor has shown his darker side on screen, plenty on several occasions. While more actors may be added to the Daredevil Born Again cast in the coming weeks, they're likely already signed up for the series, and Marvel may choose not to reveal everyone will get to see, including certain defenders, rumor to appear. We've had the good fortune to chat with a little couple times. You can check out the conversation with him,

and while we... No, no, no, no, okay. All right, so this is great news. This is good news, and especially, like, I'm riding high on this show right now, obviously, and I'm telling you, like I said to you guys, and I was missing talking to you guys, but I'm not lying to you that I almost said,

hey, maybe we postponed this week because I was so locked into the show. And then after I'm done here with you guys, I'm shooting Matt Serra's show. And I'm like, yeah, I don't want to get choked out. So I'm not going to, I'm not going to. But I want to. And it also makes me say, okay,

now that I know the type of show that I'm watching here and now that Matthew Lillard's going to be in this, I disagree with them. I'm like, yeah, this is not a different side of him. He's played so many different things. You ever see him in the descendants? ever seen him and he's played he's played so many different types of roles night at freddies i think it was playing dark more than light yeah he played me too yeah he's played he's played a lot of

different like in his like younger like sLC punk and scooby-doo and stuff but like as he's gotten older i think he plays everything i mean my my most favorite like recent thing of his was uh in good girls he was playing the the husband of christine was it christina hendricks i can't remember which one of them i think it was christina hendricks he was fantastic in that man he's just playing like a dad that was all constantly cheating on his wife and then got caught up in drug deals like he he was fantastic in that he's great and he's i'm telling you like i said i mentioned like he's he he is just such a funny dude in general he's very intelligent but um it was my favorite memory when he came here like not at me but he was pissed because like he he was caught in traffic

he was caught in traffic for like from the city if he would take a training we got in here 35 minutes but he drove and took two and a half hour. So he was not here. He was not happy. But we played it off of it and he used that in the interview and it was great. But I think he's going to be great in this show. Now whether or not he's going to be a good guy or bad guy, I would probably lean towards bad if I was going to guess.

He does that very well. But Winston, the thing I wanted to ask you those inside that article, they mentioned like the defenders and stuff are going to start showing up. Like who do you want to say? see besides Luke Cage. I mean, I would, if they're going to do, I almost wish they would take a step back from the defenders for a minute and instead just give me a heroes for hire. Like legitimately go figure out what you're doing with Iron Fist and get Luke and Iron Fist to collectively come together. That's a fun duo that ends up happening there, but like dealing with some serious stuff. That means you can bring Jessica Jones in at whatever point because she does help the two of them. And then that way you're keeping it small. You're not trying to make it some grand event. Like you can kind of take some of the heat off of any. individual show of having to carry itself and really focus on relationship and whatnot. And then that also just gives you the path to add in, you know, stoic actors like Matthew

Lillard, you know, who knows what he's doing with Daredevil, but like depending on the character, he could bleed over into that or something like that. I think that that would work because other defenders include at times the Hulk, Dr. Strange, they both have joined that, but you're not going to do that since they're your A-lister's, you know, you got them in movies. I highly doubt you're going to bring them into that. That could also be another path that, as we've agreed, read people don't like the she-hulk show but they did like tautiana meslani what she was doing

with the character so you can also then involve she-hulk there and then that way is a way to incorporate the character keep some of those fans that are there but not have to go back down that path with the show that people you know apparently didn't like as a general whole understandably coy what do you think of us as far as defenders go like is anyone in particular that you think i mean is it kind of harder to answer right now because you haven't seen season one Yeah, I haven't seen anything of this season, but I do assume with Jessica Jones being so well regarded that that would be a great start. I'd love for it to grow into all the defenders, but I feel like a Jessica Jones is like the easiest. And also I'm going to shoot my shot with Matthew Lillard here.

I'm hoping because we already have Owlsly. We already have the owl who is who I would have cast him as. But I've always wanted to see Matthew Lillard play carnage. It's one of my like time travel casts. if I was going to take a time machine, Matthew Lillard carnage is the dream. Jester would be really weird and cool. Jester is like a intentionally poor man's carnage.

He uses gimmicky things. He has a fear toxin. He's like an amalgamation of a lot of characters, but he's always like a really desperate man trying to make things right. And I feel like the comedy of Matt Lillard and like he could add desperation to a role really well. And I feel like, I don't know,

Jester would be fun for him. There's a few other like criminal elements, It's like henchmen type roles or like crime bosses, but I'd love to see him play something like big. I love that they are approaching this also. One of the things I will say, again, without a spoiler on the whole thing,

is that it, I like that they have confidence that it's just, it stands on its own. It's its own thing. It's its own world. And it's, I love that. And I love that about it.

And I like that they can set that up because I feel like I've, my personal opinion, I don't know, I've only seen two episodes. I've got to watch the whole season. but if people respond the way that I did, I feel like more people are going to care about this universe than what they're putting in the theater right now.

It's to me, I cared way more about the people in these first two episodes than I cared about anybody that I have in the MCU for quite a long time. So we'll see. But I'll tell you something I am looking forward to seeing, and I can't wait. Again, TV. And that is Lanterns.

That's right. Lanterns. There's more news with Lancers. They did a, they're his, that's part of the shot. from lanterns. Of course, that's Aaron Pierre from... That's Mufasa.

That's right. Following our first... You don't get that, do you? Yeah, he's from Mufasa. So, real quick, Jennifer Hudson, it's like show. Anytime someone comes on the show, they do like some song for them to dance in the hallway.

And that went viral amongst black folk, especially black women, because they were like, that's Mufasa. Oh, what? else Mufasa do. Like, so it just became like a whole thing. Never mind. I'll make after the article.

Come on. It's like you have like the Austin Powers intrusive thoughts that just like come out and it like when it comes up. All right. Lantern showrunner says the series will be grounded without sacrificing the without sacrificing the magic of the source material. following our first official look at lanterns showrunner and executive producer chris monday has weighed in on the overall tone the DCU set series will be looking for the first official

promo image for HBO's landers was released on thursday as filming officially commenced giving us a look at stars Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre in their respective ring slinging heroes how Jordan and John Stewart. Characters were not in costume, but the signature ring of the Green Lantern Corps was visible on Chandler's finger. Now, though there is a lot of excitement for this series, the decision to take a more grounded approach to a sci-fi superhero comic featuring an army of space cops protecting the universe from alien threats has left some fans baffle. Showrunners and executive producer Chris Mundy has now assured fans that Lanters won't sacrifice the magic of the source material. From the start, our driving force has been to deliver a layered drama rooted in nuanced storytelling and rich world. building that balances tension and mystery with honest authentic emotion the goal is to

create something that feels timeless and grounded without sacrificing the magic of the source material now that's the here's the here and see if I can bring that up should be in just a moment here I'll bring up the photo a little bit better than we can see it there because they released this it was yesterday the back I don't remember there is see so there's there's the actual photo there and you can see it like you see that the ring on the right finger if you really kind of look at it there it is um great picture i get the tone understand it's nothing to except two dudes standing in the if he didn't have the ring on you wouldn't really know what necessarily it is but i like kind of

that chiseled look from um because you got Kyle Chandler almost looking like pedger Pascal over here and he looks he looks great he doesn't really like it's one of those situations i know people were worried. Oh, is he too old to be doing all this? Blah, blah, blah. But like, he looks genuinely just like a weathered Hal Jordan. And I love that. Me too. And Coy, I like the fact that they're going for this tone. Because I think if you want to get more people involved in it and you want to get more people outside of just the comic book world, like following the show, you got to do what Daredevil is doing right now. And you got to make it like, okay, because I could show Daredevil, the two episodes I just watched, I could show that to someone who has never seen a Marvel thing before

and said, hey, watch this. And I guarantee the people that I'm trying to show that, if they like the types of action, dramas, legal things, they're going to dig it, whether it's Marvel or not. And I feel like this is that type of grit kind of show that they're going for. Would you agree? I agree. And I think in the early 2000s, there was an era of like gritty and grounded that was kind of negative. Like, I think we misused and we overused after Nolan's Batman. There was a time in the late 2000s early 2010s, but I feel like we're coming around to how to make things gritty and grounded. I think, you know, it's a space cop show, Green Lantern Space Cops. I'm more interested in a detective true or not, but a deeply grounded show about that era to lead to me caring about these characters

that then goes cosmic. I think Guardians of the Galaxy is an incredible fluke where I usually don't love cosmic stuff, but the characters are so good that it works in that world without me having time to build to that team. But overall, cosmic takes work and you have to be invested for me.

So I love the idea of starting with a cop show that is terrestrial, that is here, and then growing this character's out. I also think the penguin is a great example. Like the penguin could have been very big and garish. And instead they make it about like lower income people in Gotham that we usually don't get to see. Usually it's, if you're in the narrows,

you're just getting punched by Batman. And like, I love that we're getting to find out the disparity of wealth in Gotham, so we care about more. And I think if you do that with the space cops and you care about the Earth cops first, and then they go cosmic, great. Winston, what do you think? I mean, I have always been on board with this. This has been the one DC thing that I've talked about the most. It actually might be the thing that I'm the most excited about, if I'm being honest, of all the things that have been announced. When your comp is True Detective meets, you know, superheroes, I was like, yeah, sign me up, especially if you're talking that first season,

the first season of True Detective has gone down as one of the best seasons of television. So I'm fully here for it. I think that they, from the start, they have been very meticulous and how they wanted to go about doing this. There's no part of it that has felt rushed. they were very careful about their casting. All of that sounds good. And then to see even just that initial image, that initial image looks absolutely great.

And so I think the other thing, because there's always been a lot of people that are already concerned, and I hope you don't take the mysticism away. You know, that's part of what we were just talking about the article. I think just have a little bit of faith here because we have seen plenty of,

like even though peacemaker was ridiculous, the one thing you will give gun credit for is that it still felt very real you just added fantastical elements i think you're getting the same thing here with the team that gun is put together and i think it's going to be great yeah and it just does depend what the right now there's this air of hope um as superman is approaching right so it's like okay here we go if superman delivers then everybody's like oh what's next landers lanterns now superman doesn't deliver Landers is going to be like, okay, now what are you going to do to this thing? And the other day, we had a report that the test screenings that Superman were going good

and that, you know, Gunn had kind of redone some stuff and it was looking good. Well, now there's another rumor, which is one insider calls Superman terrible after test screenings and now also Clayface casting rumors. Heat up. We have more chatter about Superman's internal test screenings, and this time the buzz isn't quite so positive about the DC Studios reboot. There's also an update on who's being eyed for Clayface this week. DC Studio shared a slew of updates and minor announcements about the DCU's future.

However, any positives have largely been overshadowed by the fact everything from the authority to booster gold and Waller have run into problems. On the one hand, it's hard to fault James Gunn and Peter Saffron for their transparency. On the other, people feel that they have inadvertently painted a picture of two creatives who may be in over their heads. Superman will be the big test for DC Studios. And yesterday evening, the news broke via the wrap that marketing veteran Ricky Strauss has been tapped to consult for DC studios on the movie. It's an intriguing move and one that's led to renewed speculation about how much hinges on Superman's success.

Earlier this week, Jeff Snyder brought word that the reboots internal test screenings have been receiving a warmer response than last December. One source, however, counters that talking on the hot mic, the season reporter revealed. I got a call from my best source after that newsletter. He said, Great newsletter tonight. You just got one thing wrong. And that's about Superman,

which I continue to hear is terrible. Interestingly, it was during the aforementioned press that the gun walked back his previous comments about likely not doing any reshoots whatsoever. He said, we've done real screenings, definitely learning stuff all the time, definitely editing and making little changes.

You know, we might shoot a couple things, tiny things. All my additional photography is so hard because it's like I used to be kind of against it, because, you know, you don't want to have to shoot again. It's pain in the ass. I really like being able to say, you know what?

I wish I had a shot that fist hitting that. And so I tend to go back and pick that kind of stuff up. So it wouldn't be anything major, but those kind of things, yeah, I'll cover you a couple more things like that. In other DCU news, Snyder has said that DC Studios is currently looking for Daniel Radcliffe or Kieran Culkin type to take on the lead role in Clayface. Well, this doesn't necessarily mean either will play the role. the Insider took issue with Gunn's claim that the Harry Potter star hasn't been considered.

Either actor would be an interesting choice. And with production expected to begin real soon, official casting is officially heading our way imminently. Superman DC Studios' first feature film, two hit the big screen is set to sort of the theaters worldwide this summer. The signature style, James Gunn takes you, and we see all this. All right, I think we're going to all have the same answers here.

and essentially is you're going to keep getting reports about test screenings that they're either everybody loved it or people hated it. And it's right now that's where we are with this movie. And I think that until we get the first thing that's going to be telling to me is when they screen it. Are they going to screen it on, you know, the Monday before the movie comes out or, you know, a week before the movie comes out or are they going to screen it the Thursday night before it comes out?

that's when you can tell because you look at like what was it what was it recently there was so um what the hell just came out it was like the day america captain america the screenings were monday and tuesday with the movie coming out Thursday that's that is not a good sign you typically want at least a week at minimum well not to once i don't even think it was tuesday uh monday man i think it was i think it was uh it was tuesday i think it was tuesday and wednesday yeah i think it was the one day early screening and i think it was wednesday was wednesday was wednesday for for the Thursday. I think that's what it was. I think that's more so what it was. Because there was a hold. I remember holding and I was like, it's out in like 48 hours.

That's exactly what it was. It's more so the embargo too, because a Monday, honestly, wasn't like the week of that coming out that Monday. That's normal. Monday, uh,

scragal is also up then. If the bar go to. If the barred drops here, I talk about it. Yeah. And it's like when you get out of the theater, you like the Captain America one, I saw 10 in the morning on a Tuesday and the social embargo,

social embargo didn't drop. until like late that night. And I was like, yeah, and I was like, oh. And then the review embargo dropped the next day, which for that movie, I don't think that was necessary for the social. I think you could have done that and it would have been fine. But I just think they were so damn nervous about it. But yeah, so we'll see what happens with that.

But Winston, what do you think about these reports? Do they get you nervous at all? Or is it kind of what I'm saying? We'll see what happens when the movie comes. I stand in the same camp that I said beforehand. We are still months away from this. This is still turning in research. papers turning in your your your thesis you're going to get a bunch of this is great I love this you

need to fix this that's just something that happens until we get to the 11th hour if we're if we're talking about this and it's because this is what July 11th we're talking about this in May and they're really there's maybe even April late late April if you're if you're looking at test screenings like I don't know man and I'm going to start to sweat but if but if you're you're but if but now we're still in a phase where the cuts need to change oh we do need that extra fist hitting uh you know whoever like it it just that that is normal and i think that's the one thing that i don't love about this era um of of news which applies to all news not just movies and stuff like that we are too jacked in because this is the type of thing that would not

have been a news story in, say, the mid-2000s. It would have been something that we would have known nothing about, but because we are so what's happening with this now, this is the stuff that gets reported, in which case, then, you know, it's a big hub of blue of like, oh, my God, is this going to be horrible? Like, you know, versus the two-ish weeks leading up to the movie, which is normally when stuff like this happens, unless something crazy happens, unless an actor gets arrested during production, then that's the type of stuff we would have heard about before all this. you know yeah coy i'm pretty sure i know what you're going to say but go ahead uh i mean on the macro

i got i got nothing against jeff he's a boston boy i he's doing his job i i just don't tend to trust scoopers um like i just they need clicks so one person saying like it's awful he's gonna get him more clicks than people being like it's good like it's just the nature of that part of the job to be fair way it's quite to be feared yesterday that's exactly what he said but that's the thing is like and the one from today is going to get him more clicks like so they're both going to get them clicks and that's the job like that's what a scooper does right so like i think he's just doing his job which is putting out the thing that's going to get the notice so like it might be true it might not but either way by the time it's relevant clicks are clicked um so i will

see the movie and i think screenings are natural and a part of the thing but when they're five months out like i don't know where we would put weight right like if the movie's not done and it's not up for five months. I'm not sure how we could even judge based on something this loose. But I'm, I mean, I think we're all in agreement that we're excited for it and that we don't know how a screening this early could really affect that except for like a report. This is what I will say about these reports, whether true or false, whatever, whoever's opinions of the people who saw it, right, which we can get into in a second also, by the way. It's not going to make anybody not see this if you want to see it, if you want to see it.

Now, to go after that point, I do believe that that's exactly what Jeff Snyder is hearing. And I believe that's why he said it. I don't think he, I don't think he's lying. No, no, no, I don't think so either. I know. My point, my point with it is, is that here's the question. Who is telling Jeff that, you know, or telling, the person that told I'm hearing it's terrible. Okay.

Is it the same kind of asshole that talked on about, on the Oscar saying that they refused to even see Dune 2? Because Dune 1 was worrying. I knew. We're going to be bad about that. I knew you were going to be bad. I'm also mad about the Ray Fines thing, that they refused to give it to Ray Fines because Ray Fines was in one for Schindler's,

which news, he didn't win, moron. So are those the same kind of idiots that are seeing this movie and saying, hey, I didn't like this movie? And they would be an industry insider. Like, so it's the same thing industry insider says, Dune 2 Boring would be the headline

that I understand someone running. I just don't know. take that with much weight. Now, if you off air had said to me, hey, listen, and you didn't, by the way, I'm making it very clear. But if the boy was like, hey, I saw it and it's, it's okay, I'd be nervous. I'd be nervous then because I trust Corey's opinion on this stuff, save him Winston. I trust her opinions on this stuff to where, to me, that's an end. I can also say that maybe the person that's said it was terrible is that type of person. I just don't know it. So you can't, You can't because for every,

think of a movie that you love. Think of a movie that you love. And let's say a movie, that movie has 93% on Rotten Tomatoes. 7% of them might have been the ones who told Jeff Snyder

that was terrible. Right. And it's his job to say, I heard this. Yeah. And it's our job to go, what weight does that have out of context? And does that affect us anyway?

And he's aware that too. He's aware of that too. He's like, this is what I heard. and this is a take take it for you in the same way I told you that I heard it was good I also heard it was not good so I mean in the in like literally

in the same way that just just a random example because like you said you don't have any context as to who and is saying it and all that kind of stuff it'd be the same thing it was like man I heard Christian was over here being like man you act like a little bitch when he was in his house and we were like oh my God I can't believe he would say that to his family's like he was

talking to the dog dog was being a little bitch like there's no context as to where this is coming from. And that's not knocking on Jeff, because Jeff does a good job. It's just without anything else to kind of know what's going on there, it feels a little bit like a nothing burger because...

And if you ask me about a country album, I would be the one of the 7% that wouldn't have anything nice to say, but you're like, that's also tricky, like genre-wise. Not everyone likes superhero stuff, and that's their right not to, but that also is tricky when we are excited for something,

like just I wouldn't listen to country, but if someone asked me like, What did I think of blank? I'd be like, not my fit. Right. Well, either way, we're going to know soon enough, as Winston said, because it comes out in July. I think that this will be the last story, actually, until we get to, no, or close to it. Because there's a new story that just broke that I think that we should definitely talk about.

And Marvel's Brad Winterbaum talked on the rumor that Avengers Secret Wars will reboot the MCU. He said, we've heard that the rumor is that Avengers Secret Wars will serve as a soft reboot of the MCU. And Brad Winterham has now addressed these claims. Though there's never been anything too solid behind these claims, several online scoopers have reported that Secret Wars will serve as a soft reboot of the MCU. With everything going on in the multiverse and the amount of potential paths bringing characters from various alternate universes together present, it wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility if the studio did decide to

retcon certain elements of the shared world while building towards a fresh start for the long-running film and TV. franchise. Brad Winterbaum was asked about the possibility of an MCU reboot post-secret Wars during an interview. He said, you can't really fully reboot anything. It's a very difficult thing to do in a living, breathing fictional universe to just start from scratch because of all the fan investment and love for the stories that have come so far. It's worth repeating that nobody ever said a full reboot was on the cards. And Winterbaum's response to a question about a soft reboot would probably have been a lot more interesting. That said, as the exact himself makes

it clear, he's involved with the television streaming side of the MCU. So Kevin Feigue would be the one to ask, not that anyone would really get a straight answer. Avengers, Doomsday arrives, May 1st, 2026, we think. They didn't write that, but that's what they should have brought. Anyway, okay, so soft reboot. Technically, that could be true depending on where they go with it, right? We keep thinking that whether it's the X-Men or Fantastic Four, we're going to follow people that are from different universes.

So you could you basically say, okay, this is a soft reboot because where we're going to go after Doomsday is over or if Secret Wars is over is we're going to follow the X-Men from that universe, which also kind of lines up with the Fantastic Four. Our other universe, it exists. We're not rebooting it. It exists over there. But everything else, we're now going to take place and we're going to tell stories in this universe here. So it's not essentially a reboot, but they're just shipped. of where they're going to focus the actual storyline. Does that make sense, Winston?

Yeah, and I think that that is what you should do. That's kind of what was supposed to happen in the four and phases four and five, and we did, but I don't think we ever really had a direction. We, it felt more like we had a theme. I will give them credit on the theme of loss and grief and what, what next was properly done. however it just didn't ever come together you know what i mean like i think we can all look at all of those various stories that that did come out um and and that was there the theme was strong

throughout but the but the movies just didn't that the shows even they just didn't really properly ever overlay and connect into into a thing so if what you're doing is you're saying that the reboot is what should have happened after end game then and and properly get us into our next phase, then yeah, that makes total sense to me. Coy, what do you think? I think, you know, especially in this genre, it's complicated because things have been rebooted, like Spider-Man, you're doing Spider-Man reactions right now. Spider-Man's been rebooted, but then in a long enough timeline, it's all canon.

So I personally think what they'll do is use like incursions or use the different, you know, universes to make a streamlined narrative for a while. But, you know, on a long enough timeline in 10 years, we might need a big cataclysmic event, and we can bring characters back. But I do think there will be a narrowing of focus. So it is akin to what you're saying. Like, I don't know if it's going to be just one universe over there while we know stuff's over here, or if they'll do like they did with the ultimatum where Miles Morales was all they really wanted to keep from the ultimate universe. The maker and Miles, few characters, they kind of just folded them in into the main universe.

They might do something like that where it's like these things worked. and new universe. Yeah, and I think that's probably what they're going to wind up doing because it's like they got to set things up and get away from just the multiverse side of it at all. It's like whether loops are closed or whatever it might be. And yeah, you mentioned Spider-Man. I don't know how they're going to do it. I mean, it's not going to be easy.

It's probably why we were talking about that first story about the delay because they probably have to figure out how to mix it. I think that the, it was the riskiest thing that they did. And I just, I give them, I give them props for trying it. but it really didn't work the multiverse stuff it just didn't work I mean the no way home stuff was awesome right and there was some and like seeing certain things it's in in theory like the stuff with Deadpool and how that worked but overall the for the entire MCU it just it just didn't work so we'll see if they can

make that work going forward and just focus in on one particular universe real quick I know that there was a story that we were going to potentially talk about I feel like the biggest piece of news that like kind of upset me is the fact that X-Men 97 has been pushed to 2020 6 now let me find that I'll bring that up in a second um that would be the last one that we can close out with here um yeah I got it hold about a second because we had same Brad Winterbaum was again on there talking about it so we will bring that story up and then close it out uh okay grad winner-bub confirmed that season two won't arrive until 2026.

I mean, that's not, it's mean, that's only a year, Winston says, do you think it was coming this year? It's not, I mean, yes and no, because the main issue and, you know, it's in the story. And I've, I've heard kind of what he was talking about. And I've kind of been following what's been going on with the whole Bo, debacle and whatnot. Like, Bo, in my opinion, has got to stop talking.

I feel like he's digging himself a bigger hole for whatever this lawsuit is. His video did nothing. His video did nothing. Because that was apparently the original one that he put out on the only fans. There wasn't really any evidence there. It was just a lot of hearsay and then no receipts. So it's kind of like, okay. And it's just like you can tell that what you just said about him too.

He just doesn't have public opinion. He doesn't it public. He's not on his side. And it's like regardless of whether the claim, how many of the claims might be true or not, he did too much damage to himself in general. So it's like, yeah, he just seems to be quiet. He does. And so I think what's happening now is that,

and this is the frustrating part, regardless of how you feel about who he is as a person and what he's done, and there's a lot to potentially one way or the other, whether Disney did stuff or he did stuff, clearly what he put out as a story was fantastic and was received

exceptionally well. It is very clear that they are ripping that to shreds and kind of starting over because the second season apparently was already completed and they'd already had outlined the third. There's no reason that it should be this, delayed unless and it even says the scripts aren't ready. So that means that they're kind of went back to the drawing board. So now I'm nervous because what was already a fantastic foundation, you've decided,

and you've kind of bulldozed that. And whether that's because you don't want Boe involved at all or what, that just that is the one thing about this delay that worries me. And on top of that, animation takes longer to get done at times. That's part of a reason why beyond the Spider-Verse, which is supposed to drop, what, last year is nowhere to be seen for, until what next december i think you know let's let's see what the actual story says here though too so it's like last year there's a rumor that did the rounds at a high that the highly anticipated second season of xman 97 wouldn't premiere into 2026 and the lengthy wait has now been confirmed by brad winterbaum season two of xman 97 is going to be in 26 we're just working on it now it's exciting that world

of the 90s is just honestly i can't believe they let me make it i grew up as a more grew up at Marvel, as you know, clocked a lot of time here, and I feel like I used a lot of currency to revive this thing that I love watching after school. So the fact that we get to play in this universe with those actors is honestly why I went into this business in the first place. When asked if we could expect more animated shows and possibly a feature to be announced soon, played a little closer to the best. He said, it's all in the preliminary. As you know, we're developing more than we make, so I don't want to announce anything before it's ready, but there's hopefully some exciting stuff on the horizon.

Honestly, if the scripts for season two of the X-Men 97 are being worked on, we say 2026 might be ambitious when you think about how time-consuming a full season of animated television is to produce. Although the recent Disney Plus shows served as a revival of an animated series that aired 25 years ago, the decision was made to keep the action rooted firmly in the original era. But with reports that Marvel Studios fully intends to keep the show going for as long as possible, Could the Mutant Heroes make the jump to the Notties during a 2024 interview with discussing film? Jake Castanera was asked if they'd hold, if they intend to hold to the 90s aesthetic,

and he anticipates the show taking influence from later comic book runs for the second season. So, Coy, what do you think about basically what Winston said, what the comments are here? Did you expect X-Men by the second season to come out this year? I personally didn't. I always hope, you know, year after year we get it like we used to. But I think it's weird. The bear feels exciting because it somehow comes out every year. It's the exception not the rule now.

Like whenever I'm like, oh, the bear did it. Like what a miracle. But that is like the exception. It's not. Look at Daredeville though. Again, bringing up Daredeville. They're shooting now so they can have a second season come out next year. Yeah.

But, you know, with animation, I had hoped for this year. but there was way more behind the scenes, you know, mess than I think they obviously anticipated when they launched the show. But remember, even launching the show, everything shifted the week of the premiere. We all thought the show might not be good because of how messy things were the week of. So things have been a mess for about, you know, a year. And the show came out late summer, fall. So if it comes out summer, fall, then it's only a year to lay. And that's not awful if they had to kind of retool everything. That said, I am curious what the show, like, what teams they kept, who they kept, what writers they kept, because I really think that first

season is so good. I'm more worried about the below the line crew than the timing. I hope to still be alive in 2026. So it doesn't really matter to me. But I think that's what I was trying to get at is it's not that I don't have enough patience to be like, okay, it's coming out next year. It's the fact that it was already reported that two was done. Two was essentially locked. And that was the thing is that it was going to be the kind of quick succession. And the main thing was you tool minor things while you're animating and then you're working on three. They have, it sounds like almost gone back to the drawing board for two if it's this delay

that they're still working on scripts. That really worries me. That is more where my concern for the quality of the show comes from is not, man, I got to wait a whole extra like nine months. The concern is about the, we did know, hey, we're good, we're done, buttoned it up. And now a delay means, I agree with what you're saying. Yeah. Yeah.

All right. Well, either way, what do you guys think? Do you think that we're going to get it in 2026 at all? They're going to push it to 2037. It's just going to be a Spider-Man situation, the Spider-Verse stuff, which we didn't really get into, but it's the same type of thing. What say you guys, put your thoughts in there, let me know. Right.

Thank you to all our sponsors here today. You know, Corey, you mentioned, Sam and I were doing the Spider-Man movies right now. And because she, it's hilarious because her son, the only Spider-Man movie she's really ever seen was Spider-Man 3. She saw that. Wait, what? Her son used to watch it all the time. No. I know.

It's very nostalgic. It's very nostalgic for her. So we actually watched that one yesterday. I remember when the three of us did our rewatch for it. And I think that we were all on the same page. Like, yeah, it's not great, but there are some moments. it's like there are some moments in that movie that are not bad but there's some really really like you talk about going for the bit there's a lot of times there's like there's even even there's one

thing where uh j Jonah jameson is like at the very end first of all the cops do absolutely nothing they're just staring up watching all with the pap and they're not scrambling trying to get up the building nothing just watching and then there's this whole bit with this kid and with j Jonah and the and the camera and it's like a minute and a half bit. And it's like, let's get back to the action. And Tofa Grace is, I like Tova Grace and I'm just worthless in this moment. Anyway, so I'll be honest with you. The kid thing was refreshing in the sense that at that point in the movie, the movie had fully shit the bed.

So it was kind of like a, this is a fun little like intermission. The palate cleanser almost. Yeah, I understand that. Um, but we, we got through that. We're going to be watching, um, Amazing Spider-Man next. People keep asking if we're going to do Spider-Bush movies. The answer is yes, not right away though, because the reason why we're watching is because like I said, and I, I just don't want, if, if Sam's, if you are tuning into this,

I don't think you are, but if you are tune out to this, I'm going to spoil something. Um, so the reason why I'm showing her these movies in general is for the whole Toby, Andrew side of things, right? And obviously when they show up, um, I want her to be surprised. the I don't want to show her Spider-Verse yet because I don't want her to know anything about Multiverse yet. I want her to learn about Multiverse when it plays because if she starts seeing multiverse stuff now in the animated stuff, she's going to be, oh wait, first of all, she's going to maybe start putting it together. So I don't want to do that. People go, why don't you watch Spider-Verse right after or it's?

I'm like, no, not yet. Especially considering once you, because she watched all the MCU stuff. So she's seen Homecoming and far from home, right? She has not seen far from home yet. That's that's after that's after the after Garfield I assume right yeah yeah oh that's that's interesting not I don't mean no I don't know yeah I didn't want to spoil the ending for her because she wouldn't make sense to Joan is at the end of far from home yeah oh okay I'll Garfield then far from home yeah I see what you're saying that I guess that's why it threw me off because in my mind I was like I figured she would have seen that at the

bare minimum but no that's why that makes sense but the reason why I asked that question is because obviously Donald has a cameo in the second Spider-verse film, so I'm not wanting to confuse her. Exactly. Exactly. So, like, let it get a little used to it first. So, but the answer is we are going to absolutely going to do those. I want to watch them again. Plus, I think

she'll really like those movies a lot. She loves animated in general. But her nickname for Mary Jane is incredible. She calls her Sousia, which means like dirty in like Spanish.

She calls her Sousia, a little Sousia. It's like, it kills me. And like a good way? No. Kirsten Dunst is great. She's a great actress. I love her. It's not her fault.

Mary Jane, the character, is an asshole. Yep. She's a straight up in those movies, a straight up. She leaves that dude at the altar. She's jumping back to forth with Harry and Peter. Like, it's like, no one's business. She gets mad at Peter. when he's like, oh, you know, I got my stuff going on in Spider-Man, but yet, you know, she,

she just wants to talk about her stuff. She's, she kind of is the worst. It's, I think what it is, and that's the part that I don't get because as a kid, they're like, they're just all adults, but like they're supposed to be between the ages of like 17 and like 22. And all I know is, I was a dick between the ages of 17 and 22 and not even necessarily in like the, you know, out here just playing girls type stuff. But I was. was just like drunk all the time and and and just made stupid jokes and I just made bad decisions and both of them make horrible decisions all three of those movies yeah it's it's not it's not the best so um anyway so I just want to tell everybody we that's what we are we put up spider man to today

uh I actually that's the other thing was then I finally so the review the reaction that's coming out tomorrow we're going to put one out on Saturday is Craven I did see I watched Craven with Tina I Social reaction. How did you feel? It's not the best. Okay. But I think that you said this to me and you're 100% right. I'm watching the first 15, 20 minutes and going, this isn't that bad.

Right. And then something happens. I can't explain it. It's not good. It's not like it's, but I don't know if anybody said this. I disagree with them wholeheartedly. It's way better than Madam Webb. Oh, but it doesn't really know what it wants.

wants to be it kind of Aaron Taylor Johnson's great. Arianna to boast is wasted. Wasted. But it's like, yeah, just like it's like it. It just doesn't know what it wants to be. And they just never going to get the rhino right. They're not. And I think the other thing that probably screwed it is,

remember, Craven also went through extensive reshoots. And that's what gets dangerous about doing such reshoots without just starting over. is then you kind of get a weird tonal thing that doesn't always match up and you think it does is you're making it but then other people watch and go, why isn't this lining?

Yeah, lining it up. Well, anyway, so that's all the stuff that's coming up. We're going to now get into your questions, but before we do it, speaking of things coming up, Hoy, what do you got going on in the channel, man? I just put out my stuff leading up to Daredevil. I'm going to be dropping a Daredevil comic recommendation video, going to be covering each and every episode of Daredevil

over on my personal page, also this week in comics every week, also the biggest movies of the week. Lots of stuff over on my page. Approaching 44K on the road to 50. Also, every other week, DC Studio showcase on Max and Max's YouTube. Also, every single week, KoiCast, also every single week, real rejects. Also, every single week attempted sleep.

Winston, how about yourself, man? You ain't sleeping, boy, what you talking about? Yeah, so Blur Breakdown has been officially moved to Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2 p.m. Pacific time. So come and hang out as I got the pop culture show for when you need. to know see what happened was and we're talking all things comics movies we do diddy or didn't he all sorts of stuff there i'm going to be doing uh short like one story videos the other days of the week uh and then my reactions i'm kind of stockpiling them right now so then those can come out consistently and i think i'll release those on saturdays uh will be the way to go so you can also

check out some of that stuff too all right and yeah it's for you guys again we just hit uh on our channel here we just one we're at one 183,000 right now, almost at 184. So we're trying to push to 200 this year. So hopefully you guys will, if you haven't already done that, join on it. All right. We got, okay, you guys, good news, bad news. What do you want first?

Good news. The good news is that you guys already have people who have asked questions. It's like 15. It's about to be 15 or something stupid. We got a heart out of one, so it's going to hit it. 37, you're out right now. 37. In a row?

Totally going to be 250. Just almost about, you need around a little less than 220. So, here we go. Day Napper. We've all tried to make plans with groups of friends. Christian had to schedule many people for Shmowdown days. Now, imagine how crazy it must be to schedule an Avengers movie. Yes, 100%.

However. And the earlier days to that was way more hard for me. Like when I, at Collider, I was the one scheduling all of it. Like the smote, the spectaculars and the, well, Wendy Lee helped me tremendously. But it was essentially just me and Wendy kind of making sure people's schedules were lined up. And that really was it. And then when I went to Skybound, we had other people that were working. We had more people, but it still was a very small crew.

they have a lot of people who are making phone calls and putting things together and schedule they're not the ones who actually do but yes it's not taking away from that you have you have to you have to find out everybody's schedules you have to find out everybody availability's all that stuff but when you consider that your your star is making what almost a hundred million dollars or something like that is it more than that I can't remember what do they pay downy for the two or three he's not his schedule is he's like whenever you need me I get that but I'm saying like for all of these people let's say you got you know Simuliu

bro we made you the superhero you when we need you this is the window but my counter if i was his agent dude my cat my counter is you haven't used him since he's he's sitting around he's got other offers on the table he's got other movies he's got to do what he's not the lead of the movie when do you need him um you got to let us know and we'll we'll put it in his schedule and make sure that that that totally understand that i just know that a lot of those contracts in the way that they work obviously there are caveats as far as, hey, if it's this, that, and the other, then, yeah, you can kind of do whatever it is. But for all of them, especially if they're a mainstake character, it is the level of you have to put us in first chair. So the idea that it's that hard to figure out unless it's like literally Tom Holland doing the Odyssey type situation right now.

That's, you know what I'm saying? That's not. Anyway. Okay. Day Knapper. Without saying what it is, what is the furthest, you have something planned in the works. I feel like something, Sequoia's emails mentioning 2026. I guess like vacations or those types of things.

I have something I think, 2026, 27 is like an idea of something that we want to do with the family and I. You guys? My 2026 is like half like, like I have stuff every other month or more. Like 2026, not like every day is full, but like 2026 is like half full and a couple of things, 2027. I don't have anything fully. Nothing.

And that's far out. Oh, shit. Does she know? No. You just told that you just told everybody. She said social media. She also don't watch. So.

Okay, good. When's that happening? Probably during the summer. When's the wedding happening so I can start playing? Oh, it's going to be a minute. Because we got to, the whole thing is we just move. Okay. So listen.

So here's your answer. The person who just asked me. Whenever Winston's wedding is, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's the part that I find out. That's our next live show. Yeah. Derek Johnson, but in instance of war, thank you, Derek. John Brovina, I'm going to L.A. this weekend. Any recommendations of what to do?

I'll give you two food places because that's where I'm going when I go back. I'm going, I tell you guys, I'm coming back in August. No. I'm back in August. So, um, so when I'm there, I will be going to, um, there's a sushi place I love called You and Me Sushi. I think I told, I took you guys there. It was delicious.

And then there's a place called, Oh, Sunan or Sunnan on Westwood Boulevard. It's a Mediterranean place. It's wonderful. So that's what I would tell you. Not to talk to myself, but salsa and beer is probably my favorite place in all of L.A. I highly recommend salsa and beer. Get some parks in you.

I think L.A. doesn't get enough credit for the fact that there is some dope, like, like, Griffith's awesome. Runyon is like a cool tourist trap. Go to the beach. Like do the stuff we don't do living here. Yeah. If you if you can make it to a Clippers game at the Intuit Dome, Intuit Arena, that place is crazy.

I have never seen an arena like that. So that would be my one kind of super commercial thing to recommend doing. Jason Ashcroft. I am trying to be optimistic, but I'm feeling very frustrated by DC. I loved Afflex Batman. They messed that up though. I love Pattinson and Reeves. And I don't know what's going on there.

Now Gunn is out talking about multiple projects before even one movie is hit. I don't know, man. I just love these characters and they have done such a disservice done to them. Well, I mean, there's one more from Jason. We were robbed of Afflicks, Batman movie, and now I feel like we're getting robbed of Pattinson's movie. I'm just overall this nonsense and ego stroking. Just make good movies. Appreciate you guys.

Well, thank you, Jason, and we appreciate you too. I understand the frustration, but I think it goes back to the same thing we were talking about before. Let's see what happens first with the movies. You got to judge them on the movies themselves. and the projects that come out first, right? Like, and you don't know what's going on with Matt Reeves and everything, too. So I would just try to stay patient and wait and see. You got to judge them off what they make first.

But I don't know, Corey, how to feel about it. I also think we know way too much to what Winston was saying earlier. So like it, and I'm coming from a place of being, you know, born in 88. I grew up in the 90s. It was like, oh my God, I can't believe we're getting this movie. I'm always going to feel that way. I did a panel with Kevin Smith, Robert Kirkman, and Rob Liefeld for Multicotin. I had such a great time with them.

And all of us were all like, I don't think Cap 4 was great. I thought it was good. But we're all like, we just got to see Cap Fight Hulk. And that's insane. So I'm coming from a place of I can't believe this exists. I'm just celebrating when things do happen. Ben Affleck was a great Batman, but it was a decade ago. So I don't think about it much in a way of like waiting around.

Like, it was great when I want to watch it. I have it. So I'm going to wait and see. Winston. Super quick. I mean, yeah, I don't love that we were missing out on a lot of stuff, but I stand by what I said. I think one of the things that my therapist has been telling me to deal with my ADHD is to stop. That's an exception.

But like to stop over announcing stuff because there's a weird dopamine hit and or the priority doesn't get pushed quite as hard. So I think every time they announce here's this movie and this movie and this movie. and it's going to be all of these things, you're almost cursing yourself for it to not play out. Yeah. Go Pal. Still stuck in meetings, but support. Thank you, Go, pal.

And then we have Silva 88. Oscar streaming live on Hulu this year, more eyes. Maybe. Maybe. But I don't know if this is the one that you want more eyes on. It's like a lot of, I just, you know, hosting.

Conan, which is great. Oh. Oh, that actually is great. for Conan. Yeah. I think that that would actually, that's one of the things I'm excited to see is him. The movies themselves and everything else too. And especially those, those comments the other day, those are, those are bad. Those are real bad. Like, I feel like I'm less, and I was already going to watch, but now I'm like, this is still talking about the Dune thing or something else. I'm just doing it, but it had nothing to do with just Dune. It's the fact that like, here's these voters who don't, aren't watching the movies and not paying attention to anything that's going on. Wasn't that the article also last year, too, where someone was like, I would never vote for Angela Bassett for that?

It's a superhero movie. Another one was like, oh, they're too young. Like, what it feels like is they never shed that bullshit. You know what I mean? It's absolute elitist morons that are voting, and they just want to be part of a crew and part of a club, and they don't really care about the movies themselves. The Oscars are a joke. They're a joke. They really should have no importance.

Abel John. Christian, the Infinity Saga or up to any. game was the golden age in the MCU. Projects after that have been now now now have been you know not like we expected. I mean there are a few good movies and shows but what do you think made those first 10 years special? Well, first of all they were able to just focus on those movies. There weren't all these different shows. There wasn't all these different things in general like there's there was just less to do plus they were establishing the narrative now this narrative has been set and I think that they had a clear idea from where to go from A to B from the first three phases,

and they're still trying to figure it out. And if the rumor is true, they're still trying to figure it out. But I don't know. Guys, what do you think? I think if the culture hadn't shifted as much and there weren't so many variables in phase four and five, they had a plan that was way stronger for phase one through three. But I do think they had a plan for four, five, and six.

But in phase one through three, we didn't have a catastrophic pandemic, writer strike and series of events. And on top of that, like to make that exponential, if the articles had come out during Iron Man 1 of like script isn't finished, like all this stuff that we know too much about now, I think the side of things that is too much exposure hurts and then the variables in life. And I'm not saying the movies are as good. I do think there are hits and this is, but there's also different stakes and growth and everything we have to account for. Let's see between the panel's channel. Coy,

have you told Christian and Winston about my hero academia. Did you start friendly? Oh, I watched the first three seasons during the pandemic, but I fell off so hard. Oh, dude, you have got to get back in there. The manga ended last year, but they got up until the final battle

and then the last season should be coming up soon. I'm doing a rewatch right now as I'm unpacking. I love that show. I'm two seasons behind, but I saw the newest movie. So I'm like, miscellaneously behind. Nice,

man. I've gotten into this, which is a crazy. Really? No. All right. Every time we fall for it. Every time I fall for it.

Every time. Oh, are you all watching Invincible Season 3, by the way? I am actually. I just started that one as well. You're lying. Yes,

I'm lying. That one is ready for the lie. Yeah. Time and C. Recent cover from the campy show. Usually don't like to compare, but in my opinion, quality,

the show is far better than camp. I mean, look, John's Bowie's always been, very kind of me and I'm glad that his show is doing very well and it should be. Look, the beauty of this is, look, I know that we're also on at the same time. Now there's nothing I can do about. I had to focus on my health.

But whether or not you want to go tune in, you can watch his show live, watch us on replay. You can watch us live. You can watch him on replay. That's the beauty of this. The space is, it's big enough for everybody. And now the real reject show I do with Greg airs before this. See?

Smart. Mike Joyce, just want to say thanks to Coy. I enjoyed your multi-con panel and your podcast with Greg has been fantastic. That podcast that I was before this. You might not switch out again? I just switched it out. Is it not working? It sounds better.

It sounds better. And multi-con panel is the one I did with Kevin Robin, Robin. It was my favorite panel. I tried something totally new. I'm not my favorite panel ever, but my favorite panel recently. I prepped a ton like I always do, but then I throw it away like acting and I like just vibe with these dudes.

And we had a great time. so I appreciate that man. Your favorite Power Rangers series? If not the OG, then SPD. I don't know what any of that means. Cool. Okay, but I believe you. Okay, let's see.

And we'll go to Simon again. Coy, what are your thoughts on the Supergirl movie and the Brave and the Bold? Any beans you would like to spill? Lobo is in Supergirl. and Robert Pattinson is most likely not in Brave and the Bold. I mean, I think what I can say is what we're gearing up for with Supergirl, I think will be as impactful as Iron Man, and that's saying a lot.

And I think Brave and the Bold is going to be different enough that it'll warrant having two very different Batman, like the comments. All right. Roman, hey, all sending positive and hopeful vibes your way. Man, the Kathleen Kennedy news is giving me whiplash. She said in a deadline interview, she's not retiring and starting to look for a successor. She also said that she has a plan and is sticking to it. Thoughts also. Also, what are some of your scenes that also make you laugh?

Well, starting with the Kathleen Kennedy stuff, I, PLD sent that to me yesterday last night, and Luke said to me today, and I was going to do a separate video on it. And I said, I'm exhausted by this. I said, I'm just, because it's going to go back and forth. Of course, I mean, look, she wants to go out of it. her own terms. I do think that she's going to be stepping down. I do think that, but what I do think, and I think she answered the question that she's going to have a major part and who gets the job after her. I think she's already, they're already doing that. I think they're probably

going to announce to the Star Wars celebration. Unfortunately, I think it'll probably be Faloni. And that's going to be it. And I think that Snyder said this, and I agree with him, that she's going to have the kind of role that Amy Pascal has, where she's still going to have producing credits on things, where she comes back. She's going to have, you know, she'll have producer credits on the Sean Levy thing. Is Amy really not involved at all anymore? I mean, she's producer on it. You know, she's not a producer credit.

Well, I don't know. She's not an executive, um, anymore. She's got to produce her credit. She probably still has, can give notes and do all that stuff too. She's should produce her on it. So whatever that, that entails for whatever her deal is. But I think that's essentially what Kathleen Kennedy will get producer credit. And she probably won't even care to give notes and stuff too.

She's like, okay, look, fine. These are the movies I set up. I'm going to be producing these types of things. I have this. I have this. If Tyke wants up doing his movie, I have that. So she's going to have producer credits on all these different things. But I do think she will be stepping down. I don't know if it'll necessarily be the end of 2025,

but she's going to be setting people up. I think she's going to be the one that set up, sets Faloni up. And I think that's a nightmare of a decision. Yeah. To have Faloni run the company. My dog should run the company over Faloni. It's a bad move. What do you guys think about all this?

I feel like the Mandalorian and Grogu era and saga is her, like, you know, like the Mandalorian starting with her. I feel like that would be a more natural progression. I think that's next year. I know she said she wants to like produce until she's dead. So I assume she'll be involved in some way. I personally, I don't know how old she is, but I wouldn't want to be the head of anything at like 70 or 60. I don't know how old she is. But, like, you know, there's an era you'd want to do something and then you just wear down. So no matter what age she is, adding five years or whatever, like, there's probably a window she wants to be out. But I don't know, I don't know nearly as much as Christian, nor do I know as much as the people that would be taking over the job with their responsibilities to be.

So I just hope that she does it in a way that feels like it suits the storytelling that's already been started and before she, before it's like not a joy. what do you think Winston I mean I in my mind I don't know why I thought I thought maybe the best answer would be a Favreau-Faloni let them do what what gun and saffron are doing

but who's doing the executive role in that in the two of them who's doing the saffron role if those two guys are doing you're saying that they're both two on the creative side of things yeah I was get you know what what about the because one of the reports was

one of the people from Bad Robot, what's her name? Yeah, yes. So the woman from Bad Robot, that's what I was going to say. Forget her name to them, same person. Her and Favro, get Poloni out of there. Get the two of them to do it. That's your team. Sam Whitworth.

Whitwer. Would be great. Because I love the dude and he loves Star Wars like his own flesh. Oh, and as far as Romans question is, what are some movie scenes that always make you laugh? I always bring up the, well, I mean, anything in airplane. yeah dude i recently watched that for the first time and it blew my mind um anchorman for me anchor man like i feel like before the internet and memes everyone just quoted anchor man at each other for like five years and it's still funny to me um all i've said it a million times all of rush hour but

more specifically recently um rush hour to the scene with jeremy piven when they have to go get the close that that whole thing is absolutely hilarious all right let's see next one let's do it now but uh ben alouette infinity war starter production in february 2017 it came out of april of 2018 marvel has been down this road before true but but they had a plan last time and they were already kind of rolling to like nobody was giving resistance because it was like bro look what we've been doing and this is our big finale we're not really in that space right now that's my only caveat i had no idea that timeline so that is giving me a little bit of relief but boy oh boy that is that is a whirlwind yep um okay next one and this is from big bang o t4 are you excited for the new avatar

animated series uh are we talking if we're talking about avatar the last airbender that would the that whole thing me announced then yes i don't there wasn't like an avatar like navi series that's been announced is there uh i know okay so then yeah if we're talking about Avatar Last Airbender, then yes, I am excited about that. I did see that announcement. That looks cool. All right. Christopher Brickner. Deadline interview says Kennedy revealed that Sean leaving movie takes place after episode nine. Now I don't have to follow the movie anymore as I don't want to watch anything connected or takes place after sequel trilogy. I don't think that that's fair.

I don't think that's fair because what happens if they establish it really well? what happens if they establish 10, 15 years afterwards? And it's just, it's not necessarily linked into those particular stories, but it's continuing on past that era. And there's new characters that you learn 10, 15 years, 20 years past that era. I don't think you can't, I mean, what if somebody comes up with the times like, okay, look, I want to get so far past it that all this stuff has happened. There's no, there's no resistance.

There's none of that stuff. It's something brand new in the world of what it is now and they established new characters. Is there more to this comment? Because it says one to two at the front. I'm just curious if there was anything else that they wanted to include with this. Because I agree with you. I don't think it is fair to just say. This is the one that Ryan Gosling is supposed to be.

Got it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. No, I think you got to know what it is. If you wake up and we're like, and then Luke Skywalker Force goes just hanging around. And, you know, Ray is out here, found herself a new Ray.

And all that. It's the direct immediate kind of the same continuation. I can understand the hesitancy and I don't blame you. But again, even if it's a good movie and they've really just kind of gone in a new direct then. But yeah, I think you got to wait and see. I see movies for the movie. I don't go in with judgment or expectation of connection or I just like movies. So Ryan Gothen's in a movie.

I'm going to see it. Ryan Gotham's in a Star Wars movie. I'm going to see it. I'm curious to see what they're going to do with it. I don't mind them establishing the era. My problem with the new trilogy was there was no plan. It was thrown together. It was sloppy.

the characters could have worked and the story itself could have worked if it was placed together. So for me, I have no, I have no problem with it being in that era. Austin B, just showing some love because you gentlemen are exceptional. Plus, been loving the newer show with Coy and Greg on the Real Reject. There you go. A lot of love for that show. I appreciate it. It's been a challenge because we're trying to do what the internet doesn't love,

which is like a long form, nuance conversation about like the news and try to give like opinions that might not be the popular one. It's been fun to challenge. It's been, thank you. Appreciate that. Christopher Brickner. Personal choices after a year, wasting years. That was two of two.

Yeah. I have money on the Star Wars sequels. I now vote with my wallet not to support anything going beyond that point in timeline. That's a different, that's fair. But it, but there's the context we were looking for, Christopher. I'm looking for. I mean, the personal choices. Okay, but that's fair, though, too.

It's in the same way that my brother said the same thing. He's like, I'm no longer going to watch these shows anymore because I don't want to give them my support every time I watch it because I'm just disappointed every time I watch the damn thing. So why, why do I want to complain about it? I'm just not going to watch it. And I think, yeah, and that's the way Christopher Bickner is essentially talking about. He just doesn't

It's so funny. This was a point and then context. It literally like the split because like within one thing we're like, okay, that tracks. Yeah, it makes me a question. ZRod, are you all watching Invincible? The season is 10 out of 10. I love it. It's really good. Did you see the one, this recent one with Aaron Paul?

Yeah. Oh, God damn. I fell for it again. Son of a bitch. That was five minutes ago. That was five minutes ago. Coy, I'm going to things, man. I would tell people to go back and watch that what just happened there and watch Koi's face. That was the best.

I'm probably going to clip that out for myself. That was embarrassing. Okay. So, but you guys are watching it and you like it. I'm a season behind. I actually didn't finish season two. And people are really like wanting me to react. I'm so far behind.

But I'm hoping to catch up before season four next year. No, are they already done with the season? Because I would be very upset if that's how they ended it. I don't know, but here's the next one. Winston loves this one. I'm the motherfucking Batman! Giamatti like that? I'm a motherfuckering Batman.

The day that happens, I want to be so excited if he actually gets cast. Batman Beyond Old Man Bruce Wade, Paul Giamati. Big Bang O-T-4. Hope the new head of Star Wars makes an over. Republic trilogy. Not if it's Faloni. Won't happen. Not if it's baloney. All right. Next one

and this is... You should go run it, man. Please. Thanks. My... Running Schmodeown was stressful enough. Christopher Bickner. Kennedy said that Kinberg is writing the next

Star Wars saga. This is concerning because Kimberg hasn't written a good screenplay since 2014 days of the future path. I'm telling I'm giving up on it. I'm giving up on it. It's like it's such, it's, it really is, it's humorous, how stupid it is. It's humorous. Um, tiptoe cloud. Hey, gents, what do you think of the color tone in Superman?

Fine by me? Looks like All Star. I mean, I love All Star. I like the vibrant technicolor energy. I think it stands out amongst other superhero stuff because of that. And it feels like a comic without being like Wizard of Oz technical color. It's like in between that. So it gives it impact in my opinion.

I mean, I like it. And again, until for me, everything is content. So I know seeing it at jump, it might take you back, but Superman is supposed to symbolize hope. So having this kind of very bright colors that kind of falls in that category for me. Mike Joyce, you worried the Green Lantern show will stay on Earth the whole time. It'd be fun world building for the DCU, but I feel like it should go to space. I have a feeling they will. I think they'll end up on OA at some point.

I don't think that you bring a new lantern into the fold and you don't. But I don't think it'll be much. It's either a little bit of a flashback. we got to go check into headquarters and most of it will take place on earth and I think it should because you want to stay focused on this this case I think it's a cool way to build a specific tone and then grow the tone so I personally would like if it stays on earth so like Christian that's the best point of we want everyone to be able to like it and then invest before we go to the crazy stuff right and I think they'll go I think they'll do it by the end of the season yeah

Sean McCabe Christian you man thank you Sean queens in the house oh your shirt Oh, see, look at you. Very nice. Observant as coy. That's right. Joey Pedrus, rarest comic in your collection. I have a GI Joe. I got a bunch of GI Joe ones from the Marvel ones somewhere.

I don't know where. I've got an amazing Spider-Man 300. That's like a 9.8, which is pretty crazy because that's the first Venom full appearance. And it's printed on black and it's double thickness. So if you open it, it drops the value. So this comic has literally never been opened. I have an amazing Spider-Man 39, which is the unmasking Peter Parker by Goblin.

That's an incredible condition for its age, probably like a high eight. And then an ultimate Spider-Man number one in the high nine signed by Brian Michael Bendis, are three of my golden goose. A signed berserker from Keanu Reeves. Yay, how'd that happen? I don't know.

He just made fun of the fact that I had a broken leg from playing the other balls. That was tough. I'd do that, man. Dodgeball. What? When you shake Keanu Reeves, like when Keanu remembers a dodgeball injury of yours. Do you know that every time Joey Pedrus throws in a question, I think it's Greg Alba because

that pitch run the left? I think so, too, every time. That might be his alter ego. Bleach 74-820. Marvel needs to pause and make that lead to the next Avengers movie. Push them back and add in DS3 and CA5 to Captain 5. What's DS3? D.S.

Dr. Strange 3? Oh, there you go. America 5. All right. To assemble the new team and set up the incursion doom after Fantastic 4. Thoughts? I don't think we have that kind of patience with how the Marvel universe is going now. I don't think the audiences want more of what we didn't love.

Like, I personally didn't love Dr. Strange 3. I personally liked but didn't love Cap 4. So I don't know if we want those before Avengers with the way things are now. Winston? Yeah, no. you you if you're going to say something like that then you need to be like guardians four and Deadpool and Wolverine too because those were the ones that slapped the two you just mentioned mixed reviews at best um and yeah nah yeah all right let's see next one here and this is from

dr riles i think secret war will be two parts ending in november 27th i think that's a mistake they did that yeah I think the story's big enough, and I think it'd be cool if, you know, we got a trilogy out of the Rousseau's. I just don't know. I wouldn't want it to feel bloated. I'd want it to feel like it was needed to be two. Yeah, that would be my thing. You would need to, you need to definitely earn that.

And if that's how you reset it, if the reset, and maybe that's even the delay is, it's now three movies. It's now, uh, doomsday battle world, secret wars battle world. I don't know, whatever. Then, then fine. But that would really need to just flush out proper. Okay, let's say next one here, and that would be the Pout Laws in town. Although I identify as a feminist.

I did once get drunk and call up Don Johnson just to compliment his daughter's breast. I appreciate them, Mallet. Did you ever see that interview? No. Oh, my God. It was the best. What happened? Roka was on the phone in an interview with Don Johnson for Collider, and he forgot that Dakota Johnson was his daughter,

and he brought up some scene where he talked about. her bra or breast or something like that and it was hilarious absolutely how didn't she come up if not in the context of his daughter I can't remember how but all I remember is him not realizing it was his daughter and we talked it's it's it's it's the best that's the best that's the kind of stuff that haunts you oh it's the best he laughed it off and they had some they had some fun like they made fun of it but it's amazing Justin Quononis four Boy, Spider-Man is one of my favorite heroes.

What are some comics where he learns important life lessons I could pass down to my son as he gets older? I love this question. Amazing Spider-Man 33, find a reprint. It's from, like, 1965. It's about like perseverance. It's been replicated in a lot of the movies. It's the lifting up moment. I think it has really good, you know, 60s, a little bit simpler writing about persevering.

I think Ultimate Spider-Man, the 2000s run, has some of the best stuff for kids to learn life lessons because it's written from the perspective of, like, a teenager learning stuff. and I think that's perfect. Kids as they get older. Amazing Spider-Man, 230 and 231. Nothing can stop the juggernaut. I think it's some really good lessons about overcoming. The boy who collects Spider-Man as he gets older,

it's a really important lesson in, like, mortality and death. And I know that's dark, but I think kids learning about that, like before movies teach them. I think, like a gateway. I think it's important to address, like, health. And then I would say, finally, the wedding issue. I think Amazing Spider-Man Annual 28. A lot of villains, a lot of heroes.

But love is a through line. I think that's wonderful for kids to learn. All right. Let's see next one here. And that is from Armada. Who will win best cinematography? It's either Dune 2, Brutalus and Osferatu. I mean, it might not be Dune 2.

People aren't watching it. I know. What I think deserves to win, either, I'll tell you what. What I think deserves to win is not even nominated is Conclay. But it's not even nominated. I see Conclay. Stupid. But it should be Dune 2 or Nosephratu, but it'll be the brutalist.

Those are my two is Dune 2 or Nostra. I think Greg Frazier is a genius. I'd like it to be Dune 2, but Nospherat too. I was struck by numerous times, so I'd be happy to do one of those. It was pretty good, but Brutilus will win. And then Nathan Drake, the Marvels or Amazing Spider-Man 2, Amazing Spider-Man 2, hands down. Or I at least had some fun with the Marvels.

So was Winston excited when they originally cast Giamati as Rhino? It's hilarious. Um, like the Spider-Man 2 is, is, is doomed to compared to the marvels. It also had emotional weight to it. I never truly understood why people

dislike that movie that much, except for maybe Giamati's rhino. Um, and maybe trying to shoehorn a little too much in there at the end. But overall, I really like that movie. I mean, I mean,

the emotional thing was, I mean, it's, especially after No Way Home, the, the, stuff just hits so hard, especially with what his arc, because No Way Home is essentially part three for that movie, you know, and, yeah, the Marvel's, I'm telling you, the singing planet is the worst thing I've ever seen in, in the Marvel, it's the worst. It is, I called

Winston Afterwards, I couldn't believe it, because we were, I thought we were going to be the same page, and it was, I remember standing in Century City, and you're like, I can't believe you don't like it. I'm like, what the hell did you watch? I mean, I agreed to you with you, the singing. The singing, the singing was, but, but otherwise, it doesn't matter. Yeah, fair enough. Armada. I'm telling you, three new Avengers movies need to happen. Get out of it. Get to the X-Men. That's what needs to happen. They need to get to the X-Men. Virtual Reality Fitness. Thank you, virtual reality. Appreciate that. You guys are at 54. Not bad. Not bad. Wu-Tang's last tour this year. You guys going. I don't know what I'm going, but I love that

they are doing it. I love Wu-Tang. Are you guys, are you going? So broke. I already bought Kendrick tickets. But, Cowboy Carter tickets, I, damn, I bet Wu Tang, probably $3.50, 400. I'm a try. I'd actually might, like, be a decision of, like, Trip or Wu Tang. But, I mean, I got to, just the press on this tour has been great. So I got to see Wu before. I mean, Wu Tang is forever. I hope they come back.

Hey, Wu's for the kids, bro. Yeah, Seattle, K.L. Congrats Winston. When do you guys think we'll get more news on a trailer for Predator Badlands? What's supposed to come out at the end of the year? We got two Predator movies from Dan Tractenberg this year. He filmed like a secret one. So hopefully we get some news on either soon.

I hope so. Maybe. Maybe. I would say April seems good for that. Probably a good idea. Fasia Brut. You watched any Oscars? Any personal favorite of predictions?

I was answered this yesterday. I don't know if it was on the Patreon stream or the member stream. But I think I know what I'll wind up doing. I'll probably wind up watching 1923 with my wife while it's on. So it can build up so I can fast forward through the boring speech. and the predictable nonsense. And then I'll just the speeches of people who are actually saying things relevant. Oh, Corey, I'm with you, by the way, 100%.

I don't know where Winston stands on this. But I talked about it yesterday with Steph. I'll talk about it with you. There is a woman who was talking about Timothy Shalamaze. Oh, wait, I'm just being up so bad. That woman. Finish your sentence. I did.

I didn't hear what you said at Timothy Shalames. Timothy Shalemate's speech at SAG Awards. So this woman should no longer do television. She should no longer have it. She is, there was the worst and stupidest fake opinion that anyone could have. It was, it was so stupid. And the point, the kid's speech was so honest. And her point of like, well, artists aren't supposed to be,

who strive to be great like basketball players and athletes. What the hell are you talking about? Who said this? And she tried to be relevant. Dude, some talk show, lady but then she tried to be relevant and quote Kendrick and she's like you should listen to Kendrick Lamar and be humble. Meanwhile Kendrick Lamar just did that

press thing with him and talk about I should have it all. It's embarrassing. The man in the garden. It was the stupidest thing I ever saw. Timothy Chalemay's speech was refreshing. It was excellent. It was like a Nike ad. It's motivated me since. It was excellent.

I think it'll probably heard him in the Oscars to be honest with you, but I think that it was excellent. And I love the honesty. And for so long people were just talking about how, you know, The people seem so fake. I mean, this is how the kid was feeling. I love that he didn't, he didn't show disrespect to anybody.

He just showed, he showed, can you find this and send it to me? Because I want to see this now. The lady's speech is on my Twitter. It's on your Twitter. Yeah, you watch it afterwards. It's really, it's, it's, it'll, it'll piss you off because it's terrible.

But yeah, the answer is I won't be watching the Oscars in real time. I'll be, I need enough time to fast forward through the nonsense. I like Conan enough. I'll be watching. No, I'll watch it for Conan. Yeah, I'll watch it for Conan.

Yeah, I'll watch it. stuff for sure but then I'll fast forward through the nonsense. Jesse Marcus, congratulations Winston. I'm looking forward to the Leonard show. Very hyped. When does that come out? Is it come out March next year? I know it's next year.

I forget the date, but yeah, next year. Eric Kirby, Winston, I finally finished Young Justice. It was great. Do you know if they'll have another season? What is a better show for you than that one or invincible? Probably Young Justice is better than Invincible for me, though. They're both very good.

um no that that was the whole thing even getting that very last season was pulling teeth and petitions and save young justice and all that they're they're they're we're not going to get anything else unfortunately uh simon see i like hero academia but somehow stop watching after season three has the quality gotten significantly better in the later seasons uh it definitely has gotten better um i think the main takeaway again if if you have issues with the animation just read the manga the what it is is the story just is so fantastic, especially all this stuff with Todoroki's brother and check it out.

Crystal. Crystal DW fan, the multi-com video with all the rejects was amazing. Who knew Tara was a dolphin trainer? I guess I missed that. Shout out to the real rejects for holding a great event. Was she actually or is it just a joke? She was a dolphin trainer before like coming back to LA

and like, yeah, Tara's a legit dolphin trader. That is hilarious. Okay, let's see. Next one after that. I think we have a couple left. Be Gill Studios. Coy, Winston, are you reading the new Power Rangers comic Power Rangers Prime? It is definitely a very different take on this rebooted world.

I have not been reading it. Coy? I've not. I don't read so many comics. Power Rangers just don't make the 50 comic cut, unfortunately. Nathan Drake, Chinese food, no soul food here, RH1. Chinese, no soul food here. I ain't know Pug Beach.

Andrew Kavolka. going to see last breath with Simon Lou this weekend. That's with him and Woody Harrelson, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah, I don't know if I'm going to see it this weekend, but I would like to see it eventually. I'll see it eventually. I really want to see, you guys have got me on board now that I've seen these trailers, Mickey 17. I can't wait. Monday, man. Can't wait. I'm pumped. Nathan Drake, you think Filoni has played Knights of Republic? I don't know,

maybe. Sean McCabe, regarding the possible delay for Doomsday, could it be that they're trying to fit Kang back in or is he completely done? I think he's going to be in it, but I think that he's not going to have a relevant role. What do you guys think? Yep. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Same quick. I feel like, I mean, Jonathan Majors has that fitness movie coming out, the bodybuilding movie, and there have been some things. I just wonder if Kang is going to be majors in anything again or if it would be a recast. I'm just not sure. Okay. Andrew.

Crovoka. What would you think of Jenton Akel is being cast as a DCU Batman? I always liked it. I like the idea of it. I don't know if he's going to do it. I'll tell you though. My pick right now is Brendan Scunar,

even more so than ever. I'm watching, have you guys checked out 1923 yet? Okay, so Coy, if you have no interest in seeing 1923, like I don't really care about it. I'm probably never going to really get into it at all. Then just watch episode one of season two.

not for anything else to see him to see max okay he is like there's a scene i mentioned that he's there's something happening to someone in on this boat and he intervenes and when he intervenes i was like that's that's batman yeah it's he's he is awesome he is he is a movie star he's a movie star um jason ashcroft i want to clarify my comments i'm excited for dc and what gun is doing i'm just tired of getting excited for something and then not seeing it happen. I mean... Oh, I see what you're saying. Again, we've got a second text and context.

That's why I personally, I know a lot of people on the internet were upset at the announcements last week, but I prefer a update. It's been two years versus a here's our next five years and nothing. Like, I think throwing a spaghetti at the wall is what a lot of phases feel like now, whereas what they're doing is just giving updates. So I think the transparency is very, for me, nice as a comic fan. I do think what they're updating is, is going to happen it's just it's going to be good and finished um yeah i feel the same with a lot of

stuff that's been announced with again bring no star wars like hey this is going to happen just kidding this is going to happen no i'd rather not hear everyone's attached to another project again um scott harris can we get a group miss test mokker and to honor jean hackman well the only problem with that is i feel like i get way too loud and it's still in in the offices i'm And it's still workday. I do love his, Ms. Tessmucka! I love it.

It's the best. Man, I hear now that they are worried about foul play because of pills that were scattered everywhere or something? Yeah, it was pills. And then they thought initially was gas. Right. But, yeah, I mean, it's just too bizarre that the dog and the wife. That was the thing.

It was that I could see if it was just the two of them. Yeah. But the dog, too, does. sound like a ghastly even him who's it was him and he's 95 he's 95 years right it's like 62 63 you got to go like well how'd that happen and then and with the dog it's a there's there's more that's going to come out um Joe for show he wants he wants to chow something so on the spider this is right when sam and i get together really is like two eighth graders getting together again and we were watching the scene in spider man too when he's kind of lost his powers and he's all

happy about it and he in the time of getting chau main and she and sam said something about yeah she wants her chowman and i go he wants to chow something for like a minute uh ziki numinunglu i want to get that right i didn't get it right that time i don't want to try thoughts on the new dc marvel crossover comic that was recently announced i'm really excited yeah dude they're doing for the first time in 20 years um i mean the amalgam comics came back earlier and they sold that immediately. So clearly like these conversations are ongoing. I love it personally because I think the rivalry between the companies is fans more than the companies and this kind of shows it. So I think when comics sell, plus if you're like a DC guy

and you discover a Marvel character through this combination or vice versa, that's only good for comics. So I'm all about it. Okay. Let's see. Oh, this would be for me, not you guys. Shelf presence, elimination chamber picks. I think CM Punk's going to wind up doing it. probably be Bianca for those. If you want the full card, look at the rest of the card. But I'll be watching this weekend, though, too. But those are my picks for the actual chamber itself.

Christopher Bickner, I would love Star Wars to do adaptations of legend stories in a separate timeline. Sure, but those are books. And not with, now with Filoni. I would love to see Yu Zong or properly adapted. Me too. But get rid of your expectations. telling you. It's just not going to happen with comics and books and the stuff that they should do.

Chris, I couldn't agree with you more. Adapting legend stories in those books and adapting those things where you have actually people who actually can write and have written stories and know the world. Of course, why wouldn't you want to adapt their stuff? But they'll never do it. It's absolutely ridiculous. Ziki. Stink. Okay. No problem. Geek Load Stars. Thought the cat meowing was mine. I started to look around. What do you think of Invincible Season 3? I think it's the best season so far. Would you agree with that? I mean, I know Christian does. He loves it.

You know, you know I've been messing with you, and I've actually seen like four episodes of seasons, right? No way. Yeah. I have. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me one time, shame on you. Fool me two times.

Three times can put the blame on you. Fool me three times. Load the chopper, let it rain on you. No. Let me see everything happen in season one? Are we season in episode one? Please. All right.

So Mark M. says I'm super excited for teen titans in DCU. Did you get by the way, do you guys think it's the best season, admissible? I haven't seen it. You haven't seen, okay. Would you say that is the best season,

Winston asking him? I would say that they are doing very well right now. Okay. Marcus M. I'm super excited for teen titans in DCU. Yeah. Same. And the fact that the writer of a Wonder Woman is,

you know, attached and the Wonder Woman, that makes me think not only is the under room the script's so good, but they've got a plan for Teen Titans. So I'm excited. Sun Tzu. Hey, gang. I think 2019's Joker might set the bar too high in comic book movies.

Seems like the average movie go are more interested in the box office numbers, more than how good a film is nowadays. I don't think that average movie goer. I think people in maybe in this space for sure, but the average movie go or it doesn't give a crap about box office. Yeah, also from the standpoint of like, I had appreciated that Joker, but I don't even put it remotely close to one of my top movies up there.

Like it's, it's, I don't even know if it craps, it probably cracks my top 20, but it's not even coming close to my top 10. So I don't know about all that. Like analysts, analysts do that for box office,

but the average movie, or it doesn't really care of a box office. Joe for show, not his best, but I love Gene and enemy of the state. Oh, yeah. Oh, dude,

I love that movie. Have you guys seen the trailer for Warfare from 824? Is that the one with Tom Hardy? I didn't see it. Oh, no, but I can't wait for that. That's havoc. Oh, okay. I don't know what warfare is. Which one? I'm not familiar.

Not sure which one that is. Ziki, what are your top five favorite MCU villains in no particular order? Mine is Killmonger. Yep, Thanos, yep. Kingpin, yep. Ultron and Green Goblin from Noe Home. I would throw in, I think Michael Keaton's pretty damn good. I agree. Michael Keaton. I throw in a Killgrave, Purple Man, David Tennant.

Oh, yeah, Purple Man is great. I just brought the movie that's trying to remember really quickly. Those are good. And then it's Loki. What are we doing? Yeah, but the question. As a matter, he started from Avengers. Loki from Avengers, yes.

I'm with your 5 minus Ultron personally. Yeah. That's it, guys. So we had a good show here today. Great show here today. Thank you, everybody who's been a part of the show. So again, 67, not too bad, not too shabby, now close, not close to the reigning champs. That is Mike who wins a second week in a row and Roxy coming back to one another one.

But geek load stars, what do you think of the new designs for the Batman comics? I think they went old school with the colors gray and blue. I like that too. I like it a lot. I like the new symbol. It's like a play on the classic symbol, a little more angular. I think it's going to be a fantastic book. All right.

So guys, thank you so much real quick. Once again, if they want to go check out the channel. where is it Winston? YouTube.com slash the Swaggy Blurred. Come say what's that. C-H-J-J-J-R-E-A-U. C-O-Y-J-A-U. C-O-J-A-N-D-R-E-A-U.
