Leave a comment down below what you thought of this trailer. Let's find out how this sequel is Alukin, from Nia da Costa. Trying to predict the future Uh-huh Oh, the package

Starting point is 00:01:46 In fact It may not even exist at all Gonna like actually unpack some more details Of the past These shots are incredible Oh, I am this. Oh, fascinating. Many of the things we take for granted will one day pass away completely.

Starting point is 00:02:12 I open the door. Oh, cool. We're following him this time. Yeah. When that time comes, men will no longer communicate. Wow. Okay. January day.

Starting point is 00:02:29 So soon. Diseases. Damn. Hmm. And barbarism. Oh, these guys. That's right. Oh, dang.

Starting point is 00:02:40 Oh, cool. The whole world. They're actually like barbaric. It ceased to make any sense. Oh, that chick from a foggwinter soldier. The whole world. Look at the incredible change. Oh, God.

Starting point is 00:02:58 We've experienced. Oh my god, freaking Alfie. Yeah, get more wig. Nicely done. And it's still to come. Gross. Are you ready? He's the priest now.

Starting point is 00:03:23 Oh my God. That's insane. It looks maniac. Oh, wow. That looks some shit a minute. Wow, I know like it was a bit of a mixed bag for them before with a lot of the audience, but it looks like they're going to be really delivering on that latter, like the latter half of the previous one. And it was like a big setup, especially the final moments, is a big setup for the chaotic nature of what's the coming.

Starting point is 00:03:59 This one. Damn. I've got some thoughts here before we watch zombies. Her rejuignation, I'll be honest. Money has always made me anxious. If I'm low on money, I stress out about how will I make more? And if I actually have money, I stress out about, I'm afraid I'm going to lose all this. That's why I've made a discipline, a real discipline. Not just to manage money, but change how I relate to it.

Starting point is 00:04:22 And that's where something like Acorns comes in. This, it is today's video. Yes, it is today's video sponsor.

Starting point is 00:06:06 Thank you. John, please speak words of wisdom into the camera or to us. Sure, sure. Happy birthday. No, I'm super excited. I mean, you know, 28 years later has been one of my favorite movie experiences so far this year. And I just love the atmosphere and, you know, the contemplative but also menacing vibe that they're able to. orchestrate with these this looks like it's flowing you know fluidly out of the previous one but

Starting point is 00:06:33 also like it's going to have its own things to say and expound upon especially with jimmy and i spotted alphi in here so it does seem like a very direct you know continuation of even if he's not going to be like the central character this time maybe it's still that story and it makes me fascinated for what the trilogy structure is going to be because you know like i can imagine this one sort of having these settings that look very akin to 28 years later at the start in the first half and then maybe going to a whole other place for the second that'll then segue into the part three i know they want to make yeah but i'm really excited by this and this looks like more of what i was really enticed by with the first one but also i'm curious to see what nia dacosta spins it as yeah man good points

Starting point is 00:07:18 john is not talking no it's aaron now yeah that's birthday dog uh yeah i am the excited for this. Tara, Andrew, and I reacted to this one earlier this year, and it thoroughly surprised me, very different from the first two, and it was this coming-of-age story, and the way that they're able to turn that into something larger is really impressive. I'm surprised it's turned around so quickly.

Starting point is 00:07:41 I was like, I feel like the last one just came out, and here we are, and it looks just as intense. It looks just as creatively inspired, and we are expanding upon all these characters. I thought that was the last we'd see of what's his name, the actor who's on the screen right now, Ray Fine's character, I thought he was just playing a small part, he was fantastic in his supporting role in that one, but to see him getting more of an expanded role, and he literally had the Bone Temple, so he's going to be centered with this plot. It's really exciting, and yeah, I think they've established something really interesting, the fact that this is taking place on an island, and it's sort of segregated from the world, and it seems like things out. side of the world they hinted were more stable and things the world has kind of moved on so to explore the isolation of what's happening here is really cool and I'm intrigued by the fact that they all

Starting point is 00:08:36 wear wigs like jimmy that was the name right and like kind of like like London or just like in the courtrooms so they're all just like his subjects and like his uh his disciples of his little cult that he's formulated here so yeah I'm excited to see where that goes and to see his dad the little kid and his dad finally reunite even in the face of you know there being conflict between the two of them and how that comes to head yeah man do you think uh i think the jimmy stuff suddenly looks way more appealing like i was not a part of that's such a divisive moment for people at the very end like contextually plot wise i i get it um but execution wise i thought it was um silly in a way that i did not personally enjoy and yet in this trailer uh He actually seems menacing and scary. And the vibe I'm getting is this new world seems to be leaning into the theme of societal control by religion. You know, if you look at what Jimmy experiences at the beginning of the last movie, he lands himself in a church. And then he's wearing the cross by the end of it.

Starting point is 00:09:46 And a lot of this seems to be still furthering that idea of, you know, societal control. via through specific types of ideologies, you know, that also feel very primitive, primal, and just nitty, gritty. I have no real idea of how this is ultimately going to progress and is this idea of what the rage virus has done to society as is that supposed to say like this has brought us more down to our animalistic sides of what humanity truly is underneath all the bullshit you know and so I think there's a lot of really cool things to unpack here

Starting point is 00:10:26 because this felt more human driven than you know virus infected driven and I'm curious for a lot of things I are Taylor Johnson his work in the last one was probably my favorite thing he's ever done honestly and I'm looking forward to seeing more of him and Nia da Costa that's pretty cool that they've decided to switch up directors keep same screenplay writer and the oddness of ending the 28 days later trilogy with part one of a new trilogy it's a really weird way to go about for the future of this franchise but no i thought this was the shit this looks really cool and uh it feels ugly grimy but beautiful all at the same time uh i'm excited for it man this looks really really

Starting point is 00:11:13 freaking sweet and very ritualistic anyway that's that for 28 years later let's watch this marvel zombies trailer which i'm sure will have the same level of visceral impact as 28 years later The Bone Temple It's rated Oh This looks intense Yo

Starting point is 00:11:39 We actually got blood Wow Oh my god Oh my god There's a strong chi Ah All right Oh my god

Starting point is 00:11:53 This is actually our rated It looks intense. Give the people what they want. Whoa. They're going for us. Oh, Yulina. We got a world to save. Sunchi, nice.

Starting point is 00:12:10 Wicked. Oh. Neymour. What? What? Yeah. Shit. Oh, man.

Starting point is 00:12:23 I am suddenly excited for this. We're at Randall Park. Yeah. Oh, nice. Yeah. Whoa. This is metal is better than I expected. Yo, solid trailer at it.

Starting point is 00:12:42 Whoa. Slicing an end, man. Oh, my God. We're actually getting like a blade night. Does that blade moon night? Yeah, yeah. LFG Bloods flat on the camera

Starting point is 00:13:02 That's how you do that then Wow This Marvel This is sick Hell yeah dude Wow that was so much better than I anticipated Yep Because I remember what if having zombies

Starting point is 00:13:22 But it certainly felt like PG 13 zombies you know so the second there was like blood and stuff and it looks like it's just littered with the with the gore it doesn't feel like it's actually holding back which i'm surprised they did honestly i'm a little bit i don't know why i'm so surprised i think i'm surprised because of what if gave us so yeah this uh this this could just seem like oh it's just violent but not actually compelling storytelling but i'm at least glad that if they're going to do marvel zombies they're going to do some cool shit and with the violence and it was like a moon night blade was that what was that what was yeah hell yeah it's kind of weird this is his like first on-screen debut of him as a character marvel's had some interesting choices as of late

Starting point is 00:14:07 and some interesting readjustments what did you think man i thought it was great i love the trailer it was definitely a lot different than i was expecting it to be a lot darker than i was expecting it to be a lot more metal than i was expecting it to be and yeah it doesn't seem anthology right seems like one plot it's one plot that is just following the specific you know

Starting point is 00:14:27 phase five and four characters through this zombie-esque journey and yeah I mean good for them good for these actors I know that each of them

Starting point is 00:14:37 kind of only had one film or so to really show their stuff so to see them in a different context like zombies is really freaking cool I love this the way that they're

Starting point is 00:14:48 utilizing the different effects and the way that they're showcasing how gory it could be how creative they can be with their gore while having the zombie thing be in the world of superheroes is super duper dope. I think they're going to take

Starting point is 00:15:04 advantage of it way better than they did in the what if series. And I'm curious to see where it ends and how far they actually take this right at our thing. It looks super sick. Johnny? It does. It does look super sick. I don't really

Starting point is 00:15:20 care for this animation style. I don't find it very appealing to look at. But, you know, Marvel going full heavy metal, like, literally putting, like, a thrashy song over the trailer and showcasing basically that they're just going to go balls to the walls with carnage to some degree. I mean, you know, obviously there's zombies. Like, it doesn't feel necessarily like you're walking into something that is, like, massively edgy. But it does look really fun, and it does look like a new coat of paint that they haven't really gone for in the MCU yet. and all of those things are kind of enough to draw me in past

Starting point is 00:15:58 the animation style. And yeah, just the array of characters they have on display and the different, you know, okay, who's going to be zombies and who's going to be fighting against the zombies and all that and what else they might do with the lore and their, you know, varying degrees of sentience as the zombie versions of the characters and stuff like that seems, you know, really fun and enticing.

Starting point is 00:16:20 I hope this is good. Yeah, like the zombie, Marvel Zombies episode, I remember being something that I was more excited about beforehand than after. But with this, you know, an injection of, you know, burly, just kind of, you know, not angsty. But yeah, they're clearly having fun getting heavy metal and gooey and gross. And I like that spirit of abandon here. So, yeah, it gets me intrigued at the very least. Man, you're real buzzkill.

Starting point is 00:16:50 I know. God. You weren't like as big on it as Aaron and I were. I've had a great time. The environments don't feel real. You just are obviously, you just want to say you hate it and you just won't say it. I do hate everything Marvel does this video. Until the next video where I love something.

Starting point is 00:17:11 He's not a Marvel show. John's a bitch. Spider-Man ripping a bunch of dudes heads off. Like, hell yeah, man. Sign me up for that. I'm all about that shot. We bullying him and liking it more. Maybe we could get a zombie galactus.

Starting point is 00:17:22 That would be sick. Can't say he's a show, guys. Dude, I'm just here to provide credibility. I've learned how to communicate with people via comments. I'll be looking out for you bullying me from the comments. Yeah, you got it. What did you think? You loved it.

Starting point is 00:17:41 And I give my best thing. Oh, yeah, I don't know if you were going to expound after the thing. What the hell is we're to expand on? You know, the deep lore, the Easter eggs. Is that Mahershala Ali? It is. Sounds like him. He's supposed to not be voicing somebody in something.

Starting point is 00:17:54 That's invincible. Is that invincible? Yes. He used to voice Titan. He's not doing a blade for some upcoming Marvel thing. And I couldn't remember if it was this one or a different one. Do you think he was always supposed to be part of zombies or just like, I'm sorry about your movie, man. I'll just throw you a bone.

Starting point is 00:18:07 Just like give you something. In the meantime. I mean, maybe. I don't know. I don't know if this would really make up for that. I mean, yeah, they've changed release date orders and stuff. Like, they were supposed to put Ironheart out before what if season three. so that way the Iron Heart episode would have had more impact.

Starting point is 00:18:23 And I can imagine this is the exact same thing. It seems like they're trying to get some shit just out of the way. You know, like just dump it, get it done with. But, you know, what, this looks more appealing than other things. I know eyes of Wakanda, people surprisingly liked more than people thought was better than they anticipated. Yeah. I like it. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:18:45 We all sound reinvigorated. Woo! All right, guys. We're so bad. We're so bad. I'm excited to see more Miss Marvel, because I love that character. She's one of the most underrated castings ever. I think she's perfect.

Starting point is 00:18:57 And Shang-Chi, because he's in this, too. That's exciting. Marvel, Shang-Chi and the Thunderbolts. And we'd go to Seamily use Reddit threads. All right, guys, which trailer do you like more? 28 years later, the Bone Temple. I know these are the exact same audiences. Yes.

Starting point is 00:19:13 And Mario, they're one-to-one. They run zombies. They thematically fit in my eyes. They are a perfect, two sides of them. coin yeah it seems like what marvel zombies is is more of what they kind of wanted the last a lot of people wanted the last 28 years later moving to me just like garbage balls of the wall but those are just our thoughts what are your creepy thoughts leave them in the comments below you freaks we'll see you soon reject nation much love to each and every one of you beautiful souls
