I don't know. I'm going to do. I'm going to do. We're going to be. We're going to be. I'm I'm going to I'm going to

I'm going to I'm Are we on? I think we're live. Yes. This is going to be a thick one. Thick boy. No news.

It's going to vamp. She's talking about, you know, the DP. For the Batman 2. That's the one. That was what Koi texting me. That was literally the most exciting news to me for me. All that news was like, this is what we're going to talk about.

There's a couple other stories. That's the headline, Greg. They're a little bit bigger right now. It's not Greg Frazier. We got to talk about it. Hey, guys, how are you doing? We are Greg and Koi. Coy Greig.

Greg Kory? Greg Kory is? Like Gregorius? We wanted to once do a podcast show for Koi. Coi Meets World. It would have been great. It would have been great. But then it would have sounded like a show about.

About me. Boy Meets World. Yeah, yeah. And then they started a very successful podcast about Boy Meets World. Well, we are here today to discuss a few things. I first want to kick this off by saying thank you to everyone who has been hitting us up on social media, being like, you've been in, like, I'm part of your top 1%. 0.1% of your top 5 viewers. 600 videos and stuff.

I keep seeing these crazy numbers of people watching per year. It's incredible. That's nuts. I didn't even know what we were getting, but they keep. trickling in and I forget that sometimes there is a community of people who actually do engage and watch regularly and people message saying I watched 500 of your videos sound is out again we just got to have those guys sit here every week you can hear you you can hear us can you guys hear us can you guys hear us

we should stalk so that way you know the people that can hear us we can test it i mean you can tell by the chat there to monitor the chat what's going on in the chat my audio is fine let's half the people saying their audio is fine okay everything on this end is looking and sounding fine All right. They're telling the other people to refresh. Yeah. All right.

You know, this morning has sucked for me on a personal life scale, and this is not as bad as a lot of people are probably going to experience with this Netflix merger situation. You know, I was thinking about, there's one thing I constantly forget to think about what mergers is the layoff situation. And I was stressed, and my therapist yesterday was saying, And you've got to think, can this problem be solved? And so as I was thinking about that before we went live, and I'm like, man, I'm really heated right now still.

And I was like, well, you know, even if we, there's problems going live, then I thought about the Netflix merger because it's been in my mind. I'm like, oh, yeah, shit. A lot of people might lose their jobs right now. That fucking sucks. So I'm just grateful. Like, I'm thinking this community of people who are here. Yeah, I was thinking about that with the posts we were getting, right?

like we we have built something you've built something from the beginning but we've built something independently of studios and yeah yeah and and i was looking at like i i had six different podcasts that people were tagging as their big ones of the year and i was so flattered at like the scope of it and you know somewhere at studios somewhere independent some were my own stuff and it was really cool to know that i do have some control of my fate you know what i mean like and that is such a rare thing in 2025 yeah yeah it's just scary it's kind of just hitting me right now but we'll make it a fun one today

so thank you to you guys who are here right now with this awkward weird intro as we are processing our emotions the overview of what we'll be going over this Netflix bidding war thing with Warner Brothers I personally do want to talk about

Guiden Tarantino's behavior and then of course the Batman part two Koi really wants to talk about the director of photography It means a lot to me. And my wish for villain, I feel like, is actually coming to fruition. A movie we watched recently.

I know. Is that who you think of us, too? Yeah, yeah. I mean, it just lines up. There's so many reasons. So I really want to dive into that. And I also want to talk about how last week we were really going in on how celebrities don't really feel like celebrities as much anymore. And we don't really get phased.

and then I went to this awesome holiday party for a very specific company and I was like holy shit look at these famous people oh my god I got to meet this guy right now wow eyes coming out of my head heartbeat pounding and racing

like oh wow in a week it all changed the universe was like let's test that let's see how calm it really is and I could give genuine real from the heart compliment So thank you guys for being here. Coy and I always aim for this to be a two-hour recording.

And somehow it tends to go over. That's because we never end to a stream without going through every super chat and stream lab. We'll go through every one of our main stories. And then we'll open up that Q&A to see what y'all are doing in there. We put out a poll this morning, Coy. Yes, what's it say? The poll was which story you do that people want us to kick off with. And by a large margin.

Wow. Said this Netflix deal. Okay. So I feel like we should go into it. But you know what? You know what? There's a lot of people talking about it. You know, a lot of people going live, doing like these real business analytical breakdowns.

I feel like we should make it easy to digest. Okay. In a way that if you don't really quite get it, maybe we can make it in a much simpler way for people to understand. I just thought of this right now. That's how we should do it. So we're going to talk about why it's fucking. Awesome.

That's what we're going to kick off with. Okay. I glanced at you and then my mind trickled. Hollywood, Greg, is in. Why is it awesome, Hollywood, Greg? Well, I'll tell you why it's awesome, people. Give it to me straight CEO, Greg. You know why?

Because Warner Brothers is now going to have some solid stability, most likely. All this constant changing and being sold, it's like a whore being passed around. Not anymore. Not anymore. There's going to be strong foundation here. Now she's pretty woman. She found a Richard Geer. Exactly.

See, long-term funding. It's all a pro. Now they're going to have major IP to compete with Netflix. They'll have major IP. Because you know what they're going to get all kinds of things. The DC Universe. Aren't you glad about that host of DC Studios podcast showcase or whatever the hell it's called? They're going to get Harry Potter.

What synergy? Harry Potter. versus Superman, Superman's weakness is magic. They can already do that. They can do that. Oh, shit, you're right. What am I talking about? That doesn't change.

That makes it even cool because we can now stream it faster with a shorter theatrical window. You thought 45 days was too short. No, no, no. We're going to go to streaming in 14 days now. The perfect window. That's how we want to experience things. A creative renaissance. It's all incoming.

Coy, let me put all the fears to rest. What are some of these fears that you have? Let me counter them with what will really happen. I don't have the fears I think the internet has, I don't think are really arguable. I feel like there's just time to tell until they happen or not. I think the big experience is what theaters will be in five years. Because Netflix is very much a company that wants the home video experience. They have said they want to deliver on a theatrical experience.

but I don't know how Netflix's infrastructure would support that. Let me tell you something about Daddy Teddy. Daddy Teddy is saying a lot of things right now. Oh, Teddy Sarandos. Teddy Sarandos. I got you. Daddy Teddy's saying a lot of things, and I want you to know he's a man of his word. He for sure will keep theaters in the theatrical window like he's saying right now.

All this stuff like James Cameron coming out saying actual quotes that he said, no, that's all lies. he's very interested in theatrical window, Coy. Everything's going to be preserved. A lot of you guys are worried about that. It's going to stick around.

I'm not depressed. I'm not worried. I'm processing. I don't even know how to. I'm not skilled enough to process both Hollywood Greg and Real Craig and this news. I think Red Bar, Greg is on the chat.

There's just so much. I also think that there is a, I personally, like, Coy Jondro has no direct relationship with Netflix, so I don't know their business. You will now. I truly don't. So I can't speak to their business.

I honestly have only worked with them a couple of times on carpets, and I've had good experiences with them on carpets, but that's very different than everything leading up to that. I am curious what their goal with the IP is going to be, because what I've dealt with with Warner Brothers is a company that loves the properties they have because the fans that grew up watching it are the people that are in control of it.

And everyone, I can say that completely honestly, I work with Warner Brothers. They don't pay me. I work with them. And I have been so impressed. I don't know Netflix from a perspective of their passion for IP. I hope that they love these actual characters that they're acquiring and how they'll be utilized. Like that's my big thing, right? is like, we don't know what theaters are going to be in five years.

We don't know what release models are. Did you just say you think they might have a passion for characters? I said, I hope. I said, Greg, you said optimism, Greg, I'm over here. Oh, I'm optimistic. I see it. I'm not hiding the pain in my eyes. No, no, I don't have sunglasses, Greg.

I'm out here just flailing the dark. You have literally birthed a character that people want to see do reactions and all sorts of other content. People love Hollywood, Greg. Hollywood, Greg's in, man. Hollywood, Greg, is ready for the weekend, says that's you. You know, a lot of people think that Netflix cancel shows a little too early. You know, sometimes things go in the top, you know, they're like top one around the world. Now get ready for more cancellations to happen even faster because it's a tech company now.

Tech is owning every major studio. Bro, it's the future. You got to get on board, man. Optimism. Found some optimism. Merger. when Disney bought Fox we were all like

what's going to happen Alien and Predator best they've been since their original decade You're right That's the same thing It's the same thing Maybe this merger will bring

Only the best out of IP Here's what I know about Netflix Whenever I go on Netflix Every thing they release Every single week is very special And I remember all of it And it never gets lost In the pantheon

Of uploads they have And now we don't have worry about that with Warner Brothers properties as well. Everything's special. You know, Warner Brothers was doing this thing where they were having, like, actual art films and prestige directors. Think sinners. Think one battle after another.

Think Greta Gerwig with Barbie. But what happens when a tech company is able to make that more accessible for the mainstream bodies? We're going to get even more creative freedom, are we? get ready for everything to feel like content, everything we've ever loved to feel like content. So what do we know about to be? I'm just trying to make it easy for people to understand

how great this is all going to be. There has been record profits from Netflix every year, and this does present a potential good opportunity for a financial backing for these items. piece. Sure. And how they're released, we don't know. But if there is more foundational money for all these characters we know and love,

if we can get a bigger array of things, that could be a net positive. We could get a, you know, a faster Matrix 5, Harry Potter Season 7. Oh, my God. And it'll go straight to my streaming service, so I don't have to go to the theaters. There'll be financial backing for the two weeks of theatrical release that have been. Because there's anything we know about filmmakers who have made films with the small theatrical window. Think wake up dead man. Think what Germal Dutro has said in recent interviews for Frankenstein.

They are really happy with the two-week windows they get. Fincher loves working with him. He does. He keeps finching along, my favorite director out here, Netflix. In all fairness, I don't think he'd be more fun. The killer wouldn't have gotten to me anywhere else. That's true. And you know what?

People still talk about that. Mank? Yeah, oh, Mank. Everyone's favorite fincher film. Remember how controversial Roma was? Yes. How many thousands of years ago that feels like? He's doing a squid game, musing.

So how many studios are left? Is Sony the only, like, actual studio? I mean, that's not, like, owned by some other overlord? That has their own tech company, they just grew out the side of it's what i'm talking about yeah sony's its own tech company they you know what i love about this too it it lessens competition competition ever did good for filmmaking i think i think less competition from other people the more we can all be same zies the better offer all going to be is sony the last one i think it is from my jogging of the memory which is

how i want it to be because a 24 is owned by a big conglomerate now because that was like one of the last bastions and every one of the indie companies are like like miramax is a piece of disney like a lot of those companies are are under is so many the last studio yeah what were the big five universal which is comcast well paramount's owned by donald trump right which is not independent um amazon owns mgm right i'm feeling so good soon we'll be to stream Netflix on Mars next to Elon Musk. This is going to feel so good.

You can park your car and charge it when you eat burgers on Mars. Koi was saying before we went live that a culture like a monopoly has never gone well for us, you know? But with like this level

of unthinkable power, Koi, global streaming, IP ownership, the distribution they have, the awards eligibility. Oh my God, Netflix is going to win every single award moving forward now. I think the last year of Warner Brothers has been one of their strongest years ever. And I consider, if you look at like my letterbox stats, Warner Brothers is the company

where I not only watch the most, but it tends to be my highest star rating. Like I think of, I think of Warner Brothers's IP and delivery, both those things, like original and their historical IP as the strongest between lethal weapon, the Matrix, D.C., like they're incredible. Obviously, Disney acquired Marvel recently, and I'm a huge comic book guy. But overall, Warner Brothers, having that strong of an IP, could restore the Snyder person. Balance the scales of a tech company. That's where I was going.

Yeah. That's, I mean, it could. If there's enough artists working on things they love. No, Jerry McGuire, Greg, stays in the picture. People love this. What do we know? No, I guarantee you, like, 60% of the people are like, he's annoying. I don't even need to see the chat or the playback to know.

This is just me coping with the reality of the situation. But yes, at the moment, it seems that you have Disney, you have Universal, who is owned by Comcast. Then you have WB, who is currently WB, Sony, who is Sony, and Paramount Skydance, who is Paramount Skydance. And Warner Brothers was owned by AT&T, and then Warner Brothers Discovery merged out of AT&T. So I think it's independent of AT&T again, right? Like, I think it's a studio to itself. Well, okay. Netflix and Warner Bros. merging.

The irony of this is that my favorite streaming services are Netflix and HBO Max. Whenever I tune in, it's like, I'll go to Prime Video, but my Prime Video is often linked to some other streaming services. On Apple. HBO and Apple, okay, yeah. Well, in terms of what I want to scour for movies. That's where I go. And there is a benefit in consolidation, right, for the average consumer because we're often complaining that there's too many streaming services. And HBO Max is arguably one of the, like, what are the big, big ones, right?

I feel like HBO Max is definitely part of the bigger ones. Yeah. So for them to consolidate both into one, my mind would like to go, hey, is it going to be cheaper? Why would it be? Why? I feel like it would actually be more money, right? So there's probably even more ads. There's probably going to be more tiers.

I think this would actually make it more challenging for the average consumer. And, yeah, the theatrical, I feel like theaters are more at risk now than ever before. Because competition is good. Competition breeds innovation. Yeah, in every industry, competition is a good thing. Even in this artistic side where some people argue is like, is there real competition when it comes to art? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's beyond the box office, too.

No, but I'm saying that's how people will combat, like, it's meant to be art and not judge, but, like, show business requires business. Well, the biggest problem I have with the streaming service is it dilute, it is, it is just like a YouTube page. It dilute, like, what we do is content. Yeah. What film, I don't like to watch a film where it's going to now look like content. And for sure, for sure, Coy and I know this firsthand for. a reason that I can't explain, but it is not comforting. They are using AI more than ever right now to make decisions on everything.

And when you have something on this scale, they talk about scaling the process, more of these decisions now, what will be greenlit, what will be executed, how they will execute it, why to execute it is going to come down to a lot more algorithm metrics more than it's going to come down to actual filmmaking. I think creativity is at great as at a greater risk. This might sound like dramatic hyperbole. I fear it though on a genuine level. The only the thing that I keep going back to for some comfort is Wonder Brothers has been like in upheaval for a while. Like I was just talking about AT&T. I was talking about the discovery merger like in the last five years I feel like it's gone through DC comics have gone through more owners than most comic companies.

I'm hoping that a financial stability will find some roses that grow out of concrete, right? Like the ability to have the funding to not worry. And what Zazlov did in a year to like make it look shiny to sell it was show the power of sinners one battle after another. Shares went up. And Netflix wants to be an Oscar contender. They want those shiny things so bad.

I'm hoping that to counterbalance all of the content we do get some great art because of them being the biggest show in town because that's what happened with Disney. Like Disney became the empire and then people did start going over there and Miramax did put out some stuff and some of the art that came out of the big stuff was solid.

I just don't know Netflix's model. I don't know their business. I don't know. It's the company I think I know the least. I don't have any relationships. So I don't know what they'd want to do. that's the thing, though, is that's what makes studios cool, is identity. Right, right, right. And Netflix's identity is such a zigzagger. It's all over the place. I think a stand-up comedy. I think of

old IP. You think of stand-up comedy. The only time I have Netflix is when, like, a new special comes out or Stranger Things or something. Yeah. Like, that's when I'm, I'm, like, actively thinking about Netflix. I'm engaging with stand-up. Like, and they're big IP, like, Stranger Things, and, you know, they're big like I love the old guard I think it was like three years ago in the end of the yeah I'm just that's an opinion that a lot of people share I really enjoyed the first old guard

haven't seen the sequel haven't seen the sequel Mattaia shown arts of Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow's in it that's a positive opinion yeah but that's the identity I think of on Netflix personally but I don't know what that would look like with Warner Brothers becoming a part of that

like would it be them trying to get their awards by using WB as the brand like, you know, Disney and Miramax is like Miramax puts out their, you know, the Kevin Smith kind of movies and like their art film. Like maybe Netflix will use Warner Brothers as a prestige label and that'll just allow more funding. Well, but the flip side too is I feel like there could be in like a bit of

intellectual property. What's the phrase? Like a farm overdrive. You know what I mean? Yeah. I think they might go a little bit too gung-ho. I hope they'll learn from Disney Plus, right? Like Disney Plus did that.

And that was recent enough that they might go, we've seen that you can't just make 20 things a year. Yeah. Well, I know they're in the long game, right? Right. So, but we just saw that with Disney.

Look at the Marvel brand now versus five years ago. Like, I defend the Marvel brand and I defend comic book properties all day. But even I can't argue, like, when a Disney show comes out, five years ago, we were like, oh my God, blah, blah, blah. And now it's like, hey, we're going to watch it. I'm excited. Like, it's a way different scale because of the consistency of output, not a consistency of quality. So I think Warner Brothers will look at that.

Netflix will look at that. I don't think about like, I think Netflix will see what Disney Plus just did with the Marvel brand and hopefully not just go, here's a hundred things. I took off the optimism glasses, but they're metaphorically on. Yeah, yeah. If there's anyone I know who talks here with me in person, the most about preserving the cinematic, the theater experience. Oh, it's my life, man. My mom runs a movie theater. That's my first job. There's nothing I care about more. Yeah. I, on think that without movie theaters, we lose one of the last great community experience. It is a, it is a place for the proletariat. It is a place for the every man. It is not the opera. It is not a concert where it's a niche. It is for every person. It needs to be affordable and it needs to be a way to celebrate art without the bullshit of religion. Like it is the closest to church people like me have. And so without it, I do think there's a societal problem. I fear that Ted Sarandos is only going to do the bare minimum for theatrical windows, though. I don't feel like he's interested in profit at all

because the longer people are in a theater, the less people are spending time on the Netflix style. So forever, all the big properties they be producing for that. I mean, you hear like Daniel Craig a long time ago, just being very vocal about the wake-up dead man experience. Yeah, yeah. How fighting to try to get the theatrical window was tough. I don't think they got it for Glass Onion,

so they had to fight for Wake Up Dead Man. Guillermo del Toro was on I forget what interview he was doing but he was saying I know Netflix he said I know Netflix isn't going to be happy I'm saying this but the longer we're in theaters the more money we're actually making to keep getting more and more sold out

so you have the filmmakers who were already working within these theatrical windows kind of speaking against the studio and I just can't imagine it would get any better I don't I think right now they'll say a lot of talking points to appease it and that's that's app are theater addict as a culture as a society oh it's already we if theaters are already like

you know really tough this is why it's why i like premieres because premieres are only people celebrating they're not on their phones they're not i mean like influencers are being stupid but they put them in another area now yeah which is nice because they can be on their phones over there but like going to the movies like as a regular person is heart because of people i think when they make deals too sometimes they do like what are some of the great netflix stuff stranger things is And I'm excited that's getting a theatrical. Yeah, so Stranger Things is a big one. Yep.

The old guard, Greg. Why got to pull up a K-pop demon hunters? Do you know any big ones, Michael? The diplomat. Squid game, the crown. Squid game. My God, squid game. The glass onion stuff.

I mean, the Ryan Johnson stuff. Which is one they inherit, but that's... That was acquired. I got to tell you, man. that's kind of my fear I think Knives Out is the prime example Yeah knives out was a pretty Can you look up the box office on that John?

Yep On Knives Out One Kepopped Emin up is a really good Invergent in that though Of that Sony And then they acquired it Every single bit that they had done The theatrical release

These things are not mutually exclusive Gregly Yes I also think you could look at Amazon With like you know their release model with theatrical too. I don't know what streamers are going to turn into.

Hold on a second. Knives out. Sorry, Corey. Sorry, no, no, please.

Knives out, $312.9 million dollars worldwide on a $40 million budget. Wow. That is a successful ass movie. No, it's a blockbuster. They inherit the franchise. Yeah.

And they can't even get Glass Onion to have a proper theatrical window. Have you seen the producers? What's the premise? I don't remember the producers. I don't, I haven't reacted to it. I don't know. If I have not reacted to it on a streaming service, I do not know.

The premises, they make more money by having it be a flock theatrical. Yeah. Yeah, and that's what I mean. It's not art at all. It's just business. But that gave us springtime for Hitler. In Germany. I'm trying to think of more benefits.

I am. And I'm trying to think of things. that would elicit art to come out of it. Like, I have friends that, like, right now, there's this conversation about how streamers are trying to get people to write dumber so that you can be on your phone while you watch it. That is a very real thing that's happening.

I haven't talked to anyone that's writing their own stuff that streamers are acquiring that are have that. I've only talked to people that are writing stuff for said streamers. So, like, people that are writing movies that are then getting acquired by streamers, they're not having to rewrite them dumber. If someone's writing a blank original series,

yeah they're they're not writing chindler's list they're writing but at the same time i'm hoping that we can get some quality because of the balance of scale i just don't know what warner brothers i don't know how bad things were in the hole that they needed to sell so quickly like i don't know what would have become of all this anyway true i'm trying to think of any like you know what I mean, I'm, yeah. I'm sure the chat's like, why is Koi trying to be positive? I'm just like, as a person. I like, I think the, okay, on a sincere note, like the positivity that I find with it is like

Warner Bros will actually have real stability instead of being sold off again. And truth be told, I like the excitement of the possibility. I just don't want them to abuse it. Yeah, yeah. thing the first time the first time okay predator two i'm going to go way back here predator two yeah when people saw the xenomorph skull

it was exciting at the prospect of a very different intellectual property crossing over and now we're at a point where like multiverses and things are such a thing where you cross and they build them out we can do some like cool shit when you have this many properties i like the concept of whoa could we could we do some weird new crossover that excites people? Can that be a way to reignite enthusiasm around films?

Because the thing I'm not really worried about is the television. I mean, other than what we were just talking about with the television side, because HBO and Max have amazing television. Yeah, yeah. I love their shows. Yeah. And they evidently have creative freedom when writing this. stuff and the part that does get me a little apprehensive is that when we invest this much money

like $82 billion or something less freedom tends to come with more money right because they really care about trying to make that money back as soon as possible and I feel like the more time has gone on with Netflix the less they just let their they let their people cook you know I think we I think there's like a subconscious part of us that like sees it in follow-up seasons like you're about original stuff. Yeah, yeah. But what happens when it gets a sequel? What happens when it gets a follow-up season?

Usually in those follow-up seasons when we start to see shit. And the other part, too, this is, you proved out of Apple. Apple seems to take, like, big swing chances. Yeah, yeah, they've got all the money so they don't have, their overhead is so different. Like Vince Gilligan's pluribus.

Yeah, fucking Greenlight two seasons. Go for it, you know? I think Shrinking, they did something similar where they got like a two and three, where Netflix, they are kind of notorious for canceling shit. If it doesn't hit a certain number. like right away yeah and it's bizarre when you see things that are number like they advertise it

number one globally number one in the u.s it got canceled after one week you're like how does this make any fucking sense yeah and i think a lot of what was like great HBO like the the identity of HBO like we talked about this on some show right what one of our podcasts i think when you see the HBO logo it'll oh yeah that static makes a feeling happen Netflix doesn't do that I don't I think I'm in a different place just mentally with and maybe this is I thought we'd be flipped it no no before we went live I really thought I would be more like you and you would be more like me and somehow this game out of me I think I'm on the Titanic and I'm just listening to the music yeah I think societal you know what I mean bars go I just I think I hit a point

that I hit an iceberg and I think I hit a point where I'm just experiencing what art I can get left as everything ends. Like, I think we're all done and I want to experience as much as I can as we end. And I want to hear the violin. I want to hear the cello.

I want to glean as much art as I can as the cold water reaches my knees. Like, we're all, it's over. And it's been a good run. But I just really want to appreciate the music as we go out. That's fair. So I think that's why I'm trying

to find the positive in it. Like, I'm trying to hear the cello. Yeah. I'm trying to separate the music because, like, I don't believe in the benefit of hope anymore right now. And I hope I get that back. You went way down. I just, it's, whoa.

I'm just acknowledging. I think that's, I'm not there. I think when we live, I think, I'm just telling you some fears I have, but I haven't said a lot. I mean, I think things always change, industries change. We live in a society where we got to adjust. We live in a society where a movie made $650 million that. had to have the message that kindness is punk rock that people are mad at for existing. Yeah. Society is like, we don't get to have the benefit of optimism at all times,

but we can find optimism. And I think that I'm trying to find it in something that feels so oppressive. Yeah. So that's why I think I'm on this side, because it's just, it's just trying to smell the lobster as we go join them. Yeah, movie successes are weird. I'm not going to say who, but we, we were talking with someone who is it at a very important studio. I'm really going to watch my words here. Very. Very. important studio and they work on the streaming side of the studio and they are like one of the most they are an important person there and when i was trying to tell them about video on demand and why i really like video on demand is like a second wave and something that should be propelled yeah and press

and yeah and that's how you get more money that you lose in the theaters like you can make up a lot in loss from box office if they knew how to properly promote video on demand yeah and they came at me like we don't want that. Yeah. Have you right there with me? It was like, we don't want that. We want the streaming services.

We don't want that. I'm like, whoa. It's like a speed bubble. You're from a huge fucking studio. And it's a speed bump. Like it's just a boop. That to me was a big moment too.

Like I don't love the business side of this industry because I mean, otherwise I'd be in it, right? Like you and I would make, we'd be so much more comfortable. Like I would, I would be, there are so many opportunities to make money and not care. But I chose a career that's about.

publicly caring and that is so much more exposing and so much more annoying to deal with people because I'm giving my opinion about stuff I care about versus the bottom line. I don't want to know the business side of the industry. Unfortunately, I feel like that's what's taking over every conversation because it's the last bastions of it. Because tech billionaires. That's the shit and they're owning it. We're at that last grasp. We're wringing out the cloth, right? Like this, because everything's been consumed enough that there's only like the drips left of the art. And I just feel like we have to talk about it because it is just 10 companies. Yeah.

So I don't know what the solution is because the business, the numbers don't make sense to me because of something like you just said. It doesn't make sense that we wouldn't want to hit three marks instead of two. Why not have a theatrical, a VOD and a streaming? Instead, it's like, we just got to get to this. And I think that's a very, like, infinite growth mindset, which I've talked about a lot. Like, Uber's and Lyfts got rid of their subsidies and everyone realized how expensive it actually is because the subsidies from Silicon Valley went away. and people were like, oh, my God, it's more than a cab. It's too late.

We got rid of cabs. That's happening with art. Like, we're getting rid of the things that had, I mean, everyone talked about it for the last five years, we went back to cable. But like, we keep doing these disrupting things. It's not. It's just breaking.

Yeah. So I want, for whatever time we have left, to hopefully get the best art out of these opportunities that we can. But I don't think that we should mentally, be expecting the beautiful renaissance of the 70s or 90s or things, I think we should try to find the best of what we can, like while we have this new version of reality. That's fair.

Yeah, you know, fucking, uh, we'll have, shit, what is, 11 can, can fight, um, Daeneres, Targary. He's sweet. And it's, finally get that John Snow. What's crazy is like, Like, I, my favorite, one of my favorite movies this year, like my favorite two movies this year. My first favorite movie of the years, one battle after another, and then it's Superman. But then right there, nipping at their heels in third place is train dreams, which is a Netflix movie.

And I would have sought out train dreams in theaters no matter what, because Joel Edgerton. And that movie, I think, would have had like a small, loyal following. And hopefully a lot of people see it in theaters. But most likely, unless it was on Netflix, I think the average person wouldn't have watched it. So I'm hoping one of the silver. linings of this is maybe more weird indie art can get a little bit bigger of release without losing its integrity. Yeah.

Because like train dreams I would have seen, but I don't know if the average person would. One hopeful side that I actually genuinely have is Netflix animation has been a real thing that's been popping lately. Strange, um, uh, what was it? In your dreams? In your dreams. Obviously, K-pop. It was a lot of fun.

K-pop demon hunters is huge. They have a Stranger Thing show coming out that I'm pretty excited for. They did the Terminator, dude, with Matt's and Tomlin, the writer of the Batman, too. The best Terminator thing. I'm a big Terminator fan. I actually tried rewatching Terminator Genesis the other day. Tried being the operative word. I literally had 16 more minutes left.

I'm like, I think I'm out. I can't finish this. It's not a reaction. I'm good. The first hour, I was like, this is fun. It's like, this is like, this is really sad. Seeing Greg just lose his. life during Batman and Robin was fascinating.

The light leaving your eyes in real time was amazing. And yeah, I think the thing that people often go to is like IP crossover, but an animation I'm talking about Looney Tunes has been a thing that seems that the Warner Brothers has been wanting to kill off for some reason.

Yeah. And I feel like they would probably resurrect it. And maybe they can do some incentivizing things that might make it look a little sweet, like a little sugar on top, like that backroll movie. Yeah, like things that would not gotten a release mic now because there's more buffer yeah and plus they need it yeah they did put a lot of shit out there yeah every every other week i get an email of netflix added a hundred

new movies to their roster you guys get those emails right yeah i i think it's going to be i mean it's going to be the most interesting next year because i don't think anything quite this scale has happened since the disney fox merger and that was in a time where there was a little bit more diversity of studio and content. So this is the this is the next one of those and it's a it's a very different time post strike post pandemic. Yeah. So I mean and this goes through in quarter three 2026 I read. So we've got like you know nine months of transition and stuff and also like this is still I think the ink is drying. I don't know what's you know legally how this goes. But it's an interesting time certainly had news to talk about. I guess I just wish when

things truly felt like special but there's movies and shows have become content you know i i think there's a work for part of that yeah no no if if you watch a movie the first time with us i i don't know how i feel about that because that is content like we we are making commentary on a thing and i love that that's a community and i love that it's connecting but it's always so interesting to me when people are like seeing it as the the watch i usually expect people on a really sincere note i usually expect people to have already seen it when they're watching. I hope so. Like it's edited down and shit. Yeah. And it's like it's intentionally not the viewing. I don't prefer your first. Please don't. Unless you're, you are doing an actual like sync up, you know? Oh yeah. Yeah. Like the

patron. It's not meant to be a Patreon blog. But it totally is. But you can check out full, like thwasher ones like you're watching the next of the couch. Um, but I think that is the difference. And, and I think that there are still movies that feel like they used to. I just think that we, the human brain does so many interesting things with patterns. We have nostalgia for times that weren't that good, but you can't remember all the bad times or you'd kill yourself. So, like, you have to remember the best of it.

And I think that there were movies that weren't great. And, like, my highest rated on Letterbox is the 80s because I don't watch all the little tiny things that didn't make the cut of pop culture. So I do think there's an inherent nostalgia, but I also think there is the reality of things becoming content and not art that makes the ones that are art still so special.

I think the feeling of something like one battle or in my experience, train dreams, like it feels revelatory. And I just hope we can get as much of that left as we can. Yeah. I guess my last point to it is like I think outliers are few and far between when it comes to businesses. You know, like when you look at streaming services, everyone's like, we need a streaming service. We need to catch up to Netflix right now. When Marvel became cinematic universe, everyone's like, we need a cinematic universe. We need a catch up to it right now.

Yeah. And my, I guess to sum up my. biggest worry is that whatever Netflix does moving forward. There's also a chance that this is band of the deal that's what I'm running for. There's a chance that it might not have pan out. But if it does, which really feels like it will, is whatever standard they set, let's say they do start really sure, making it average to shorten down that theatrical window and it goes to streaming, not even video on demand, just goes to your streaming service right away. I think other studios will then feel pressured to, like, do the same thing and shorten their windows.

Like, Disney is usually the long, except for holidays, they tend to shorten that window to VOD, but Disney's usually about 60 days, especially if their movies done well. They wait usually generally 60 days. Sony's a good little bit, too, because there's no streamer, it just jumps to. Sony's usually 45, not streamer, but video on demand, I'm saying, available to watch PVOD. and I think that net like that's the thing is like Netflix is not going to have video on demand right they're just going to have straight to streaming yeah and it's going to change the entire VOD side of everything which I think makes the movie feel less bad I actually feel like I'm contributing to the movie industry when I buy a VOD yeah at least putting money towards directly that movie yeah because like at the end of the day if a streamer is $16 and you watch a movie on it they get fractions I don't understand like Spotify yeah I don't get the business of anything yeah if If a family of five watches a movie, and that's the benefit for a family on a $16 streaming service, and they watch 30 movies a month because they have kids, that's pennies. And that doesn't possibly fund a movie.

Well, that's why our singers, if we're doing the comparison of musicians, musicians have to go to tour and the concert. That's their theater. That's their theatrical, yeah. That's why I go to as many concerts as I can. And that's why I go to as many movie theaters as they can. Like, I'll even go to I pick and watch a Netflix movie because I'm trying to support the actual movie. Yeah. But, like, that's not average.

most people never are people positive about it john about the merger itself yeah uh there's a there's a fair about a debate over this uh not i would say it's a solid debate that may be skews toward the wary good that's where i'm at yeah people don't love david zahs love i'll say there's just very few positives i can say that i only have a few sentences on you know like oh It's all consolidated in one place. Possible intellectual property crossover. Cool. There you go.

Hope of Boulder swings because there's money to back it. Hope of Boulder. Like I think what DC and this is, I'm sorry that I happen to work with them. And it's going to sound like I'm just shilling for. Do you think this could help bolster DC? If you look at what DC's window of announcement was, like the swings they're taking. If you just look at what we have in 2026, going from, and I've talked about this a lot, but going from Creature Command.

to Superman to Peacemaker to Supergirl to Clayface. That's an insane variety. That's risky as hell with the backing of something that allows those risks to happen as long as there's freedom in it. I know for like the DC Studios umbrella being a separate conversation of Warner Brothers, that allows more freedom. So if Netflix, because there's more of a foundation, can go, okay, keep your freedom, make your stuff.

As long as the product turns out great and we make our money, hey, we'll leave the hands off. If because it's so big, that happens more, that's a benefit. But I don't know how I don't know what Netflix wants I don't how they'll do it But that's my hope is like because it's like so many doors in the office They let more people work in their doors but I don't know like I I that's what I think happened with predator and alien is I don't think alien Romulus nor alien earth or predator badlands would have ever existed with Fox because they would have had to make so much more money Disney's got a little bit more risk because they have so much other stuff So the only thing I can keep going back to is like I honestly think predator and

alien are better off insanely at Disney because of that. So I'm hoping we get, as long as there's trust in these IPs, and it isn't just an algorithm that may be the same will happen. Maybe. I hope that. Again, Titanic,

bro. I'm just hoping to hear the music. After checking back indirectly with the chat, the vibe is overwhelmingly negative. We concentrated it down. that was really well that was a good timing yeah nice to

not checking it with it we're not seeing a lot of death of cinema there's your TikTok John we hated

like let's clarify this to John zero positives we are doomed but people do like the Korean dramas

so that's good all right guys well we all we'll finish by 2 p.m. We only 155 p.m. We only did like 45 minutes on that.

Just one story. We're totally on the schedule. Let's give it. I don't know. I'm glad we had that conversation. I listened to a few videos on it. Huh? Is she trying to get a hold to me?

Does she like Hollywood, Greg? She's trying to bring Hollywood Greg. Oh, why? She's just like, I don't care that you're recording a podcast. Live right now. She went on the live street. To tell him to check.

his phone to tell you to look at that all right cut everybody back to i said i was leaving you were knocked you were kind of knocked out or no i shouted it to jan and janet was by there where are you i'm talking to him here and i'm texting you at the same time isn't greg narrating his text to his wife at home oh yeah here i'm just going to answer you here she said who changed your background Alex did. I shouted it on. I said it on my way out. And, yeah, buy a camera from Jabby Coe. Do it. Nice. Do. Wait. Are you recommending the Olivia buys a camera from Jabby or is she telling you to buy a camera? No, no. She buys a camera from Jabby. Oh, Alex texts her and stream. Shouts out to the Tyler.

And check out her tire which is podcast, which a podcast that I notoriously have not known my wife, but she. her podcast, funny enough. It's an inside joke between her or not, is that I haven't. It's not really a joke. Her podcast at one point was in the top five of Spotify. No shit. Yeah, top five video. I was like, holy shit, man.

You really pulled something off here. That's incredible. And I've been reading the book that she's been covering and it's been keeping me. That's why I couldn't sleep, I think. I read this book called Binding 13. It is a uplifting book, I'll tell you. Actually, it takes place. from written by an Irish author.

And the whole thing's very, it's all in Ireland. It's very, very Irish. Getting a taste of my culture. Yeah, yeah, you abusive drunks. You know, live boldly.

Catholic guilt or storytellers. Poor stoics. Rugby. Anyway, let's talk about. And I think Ireland, I think rugby. They have a character who's a player in rugby. Anyway, so let's

let's move on in the next one here. What else? Batman 2. Speaking of Horror Brothers. Yeah. Batman Port 2. Coy, just said. Who do you think Scarlett Johansson's playing?

I don't know, but my first immediate thought was Andrea Beaumont, the Fantasim. I think visually I see it. I think it's a character from Bruce's past, which Matt Reeves has alluded to, and it's a character we have never before seen in live action. All of the clues are there. I think it's fantastic. I think it'd be really cool. I think everyone in their mother, if they read comics, thought it was either going to be

the court of owls or hush. This would be a crazy curveball, but it's also a character that could tie into either the court of owls or hush because of the history. So, I mean, Greg and I just watched Mask of the Fantasim. It holds up so well. This would be a, I mean, I never thought this until the announcement. I was like, wait, could they? But that'd be dope. I think it ties in perfectly.

We talked about it briefly. I just didn't think they might. I didn't think they would do it. Yeah, though it's so insane. It's such a swing. You know, because Matt Reeves did say that it's a villain that hasn't been done before. Yeah. So I was like, okay.

who might that be? No one was really going to Fantasm but when the deadline article or Nexus point news broke it then deadline confirmed it is that this is supposed to be someone who's a possible like love interest for Batman I was like oh it's got to be

that's the one of one man yeah because Catwoman's not and Fantasim one of the things that we loved in that movie is how it's going to the early roots of Batman and it is really tied into the mob side Matt Reeves evidently

loves exploring the mob side via through the Batman and Penguin. It would still keep it grounded. The one part that I don't feel like a lot of people are talking about, because when we discussed this a while ago, like, honestly, my dream Batman legacy franchise, I wanted it to kick off with the phantasm introduced. So I'm personally excited. I've already sold myself as phantasm.

I can't imagine it's not. And he's so disappointed. I just don't see how it could be anybody. I don't know how else it would make sense. Yeah. Especially if you're not going to have Catwoman in it, who was evidently Batman's love interest from the first movie, you're removing Catwoman. If you got a different love character who came, who's someone from his past, that would

make the most sense because she was, she was the choice that Bruce could have made to not be Batman. And then she catches up with him and now he's fucking Batman. And it's a great character to allow Bruce Wayne to be a character. Exactly. It's a great, because I've been saying from the beginning, the first film was the Batman, the next film we're going to get Bruce Wayne. He hasn't developed the mask of Bruce Wayne yet.

I think she is a great character to allow that backstory. Exactly. It would be perfect to me. I want it so bad. Now, I don't feel like they would do a one-to-one. If you guys don't remember the Fantasm movie is, Fantasim you find out is taking revenge. She's a, like Batman's vengeance, she is revenge.

And she is going after the mob and actually killing people. And it makes it personal when Batman's a hero, if they take, if they do the adaptation of Batman's a hero, but you got Phantasm, people keep mistaking Fantasin for Batman. It's Batman killing people now. It also puts a personal mark and a flip on the like they would be hunting Batman then

and they'll probably be, I just keep imagining like the movie like Gordon then would be having to defend Batman again after he just went over the public. Yeah. I think they do a lot of really cool stuff. Matt Reeves I don't believe would make Joker the main bad guy

probably in any of them. But he clearly has some interest Kristen Joker. He was the ending scene with Ridler. And that deleted scene, I love. The deleted scene. And like Andrea Beaumont, where he already had a history with her, this Batman already has a history with Joker. And he seems to be more involved in organized crime. So you could have that relationship. And after the event of the penguin, phantasm set up for that power vacuum. There you go. When all these people are trying to get all the power that the penguin wants, then phantasm come in, it would be great. Yeah. Like, this is potentially so cool. And Scarlet Johansson is

like so physically capable. She's an incredible actress. Like all of the ingredients be a good Andrea Beaumont are there. She's one of those famous actors who I still think is under recognized as how good of an actor. An actual talent, yeah, not just a movie star. Even in Jurassic World Rebirth, I was like, she's a lot better than I thought she had with the trailers picture. And her comedic timing is so good. And I'm not saying the comedic role. But I feel like that's really hard to do and be a dramatic actor and be beautiful. Like she's always good on things like S&L or a Cohen Brothers movie, but then she, like, shows up in West Anderson and owns it a different way.

She's versatility, that's the word I'm looking for. She's so versatile, and I can't wait to see what she brings to this role, if it's this role. Great in marriage story. She came onto the scene in popularity with Lost in Translation. Yeah. She's a talent. She's a very, very talented actor, and she, she sells action roles.

Yes. She doesn't, I mean, did she, was she the character that pioneered the whole, like, leg thing that when they, that now everyone does, I feel like, yeah, and then throw using body. She definitely brought it to mainstream popularity. Sorry, John, you want to elaborate a little more? No, I'm just, you know, it's a, you know, it's a spy move that I'm sure a lot of especially like Skinnamax lady espionage movies

have used in the past. But yeah, it's certainly known as the Black Widow move because of her now. And she, like, produces and she's involved, like she's actively a filmmaker. I don't know. I think this is all great. And similar to Ryan Gosling, who I feel like just manages to create amazing chemistry with any female actress, female actress,

but any actress, I think Robert Patton can pull that off too without more like pretty much any actress. I think this also, yeah. The ultimate test of chemistry. Immaculate. The immaculate chemistry. I totally believe it.

And they were together for a while. The, uh, what's I'm going to say? I got distracted by Twilight. Scalzo, Hanson. Out loud. She also, uh, is a, is a movie star, like an above the line movie star for like, people want to see what scroll johansson's doing like i also think it's a good thing for the movie

yeah like she sell like the i can't believe how well jersec world did didn't make a billion but like it made the closest so i feel like she's still also an above the line talent and there's less and less of those yeah she would kill them in both parts of phantasm and andrea bowman yeah i don't know this is true yeah a lot of people do believe it and the more we talk about it the more it just makes sense yeah and i never thought we'd see phantasm and live action it's so I'm so excited. Tom King just brought the character back in the comics like four years ago in the Bat and Cat comic. And to see Clayman's art with that character in a modern story was so like, they could do that.

Like it's one of those characters. I always am like, I can't believe they're allowed to use this character. It's just so cool. I can't wait to watch Batman Part 2 on Netflix. First week it's out. October 2027. It's going to be great. Anyway, guys, are you excited for...

I'm excited for the DP on the Batman 2. Oh, the DP, Batman, too. Double Penning. Yeah. Yeah. What are you talking about? Batman movie. I'm talking about the DP they hired is Oscar winner and David Fincher D.P.

Extraordinary. I always talk about how Matt Reeves is clearly a fan of David Fincher. I think the Batman is the closest we'll ever get to a David Fincher superhero movie. It's very much a love letter to Seven and Zodiac and all those things. And now he's just straight up taking the DP of David Fincher. The guy that did The Killer, uh, beloved. loved film on Netflix. Mank,

beloved film on Netflix. That Oscar-winning DP is shooting the Batman 2 because Greg Frazier is shooting four Beatles movies and Dune 3, I hope. But yeah, Greg Frazier is one of my favorite DPs, so I was really worried who would take over. It's this guy.

Eric something. I love that choice. You know, instead of hiring Eric something, aren't you guys excited for Eric something? You just talk this guy. I know his work. I know his work. I don't know this, man. Eric something. I don't know him. I know his work.

Messerschmitt. Eric Messerschmitt. Everyone knows Eric Messerschmitt. He doesn't need a name. His work speaks for itself. My big news story of the week. Eric Untitled is the DP. I love Matt Reeves' reasoning of...

You know, he goes to Greg Frazier. Greg. Let's make a movie that looks like a Fincher movie. Oh, you can't come back. Who's the guy that made the Fincher movie? Yeah, like literally, I love that when they said, I was like, so we just went full Fincher. Yeah.

Just grab the guy himself. I got it. Let's let David Fincher director. It's just Matt sitting in a chairline, David Fincher. You're like, wow, this is cool. You know how that could happen? The Netflix merger, baby. We'll play loose with the rules here.

Anyway, you guys... We're getting a fucking sequel to Tarantino movie directed by, and that is our tangent for our next news story. Oh, yeah. You're welcome. Quentin Tarantino, also Netflix-e, kind of. Oh, my God, you're right. David Fincher.

Is that a Netflix movie? Yep. The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood sequel is a Netflix movie? Greg, we're on the Titanic. And it's not going to... It's not going to get a theatrical window? It's getting a little... Ah, geez.

All right. Cliff Booth, man. That's a cool movie. It's a real cool movie. Making a sequel. David Fincher. Okay, let's talk about Quentin Tarantino. There it is.

John, and your best... Quentin Tarantanino. no impression. There's Eric somebody. Can you tell me what he said while I replied to my wife's? Believe me, I've heard it many times. Yeah, let me pull that quote up. Let me pull up that Tarantino quote. All right, talking

about there we go, there's Tarantino. Quote one. Paul Dano has the giant flaw in there will be blood. Tarantino had this to say, there will be blood. There will be blood, okay? Withstand a good chance of being number

one or two if it didn't, all right, have like a big giant flaw in it. Okay. And the flaw is Paul Dano, obviously. Okay. It's supposed to be a two-hander and it's also so dramatically obvious, okay, that it's not like a two-hander. All right? He is weak sauce, man. He is a

weak sister. Sorry. He's a weak sister. You know, Tarantino loves to do that. He goes on to say Dano is weak sauce, man. He's a weak sister. Daniel DeLuis is eating him alive. Austin Butler,

would have been wonderful in that role. He's such a weak, weak, un-interesting guy. Daniel Day Lewis shows that he doesn't need a strong foil. I'm not saying he's giving a terrible performance. Okay, I'm saying he's giving a non-entity performance. So you put him with the weakest actor in SAG, the limpest dick in the world?

This just gets worse and worse. The weakest actor in SAG, limpest dick in the world. Like, what did Dano? Did he sleep with his wife? And then he goes after Owen Wilson. Oh, yeah, Owen Wilson next. Oh, here we go. Unsolicited.

Tarantino also admits he cannot stand Owen Wilson saying, I really can't stand Owen Wilson. Okay, I mean, I can't stand him. I spent the first time watching the movie loving it and hating him. Think so I'm about midnight in Paris. Yes, talking about midnight in Paris. The second time I watched it, I was like, okay, don't be such a prick.

He's not so bad. He's not so bad. Then the third time I watched it, I found myself. only watching him. So that was a bit of a character arc, you know. We eventually got to a level of admiration. We got to an oh wow moment. Yeah.

Didn't get there with Dano. Matthew Lillard, he also just randomly threw out there. Oh. Came at Lillard? Yeah, he also said Matthew Lillard, he doesn't find his and like or doesn't find interesting or something like that. He's incredible. Okay.

What do you say about Matt? Okay. Coe can handle the Dano. Coik and handle that. You're after Matt Willard? Not in my house. Not in my house. All right.

Let me pull that up really quick. He said he doesn't care for Matt Willard. He just threw it out there. Yeah, yeah. Oh, he just said, I don't care for him. I don't care for him. I don't care for him. He's just listing his little, all right.

I'm going to let you. I'm going to let you start. You're a Tarantino guy. I'm a massive Tarantino guy. He, I've said it here, is arguably my favorite filmmaker. And I've also said it here that whoever he's been becoming in the last couple years, he should, I don't, I think this is. is just kind of a

really classless to do it. There's something of, it's one thing if we say it, I guess, because we're not directors or actors.

I've looked at it from Paul Dano's perspective. I can, I'm like, what if Paul Dano's a fucking fan? And, and likes his word, yeah,

right? Like, how fucking he's hurtful and me is that. He definitely grew up with Tarantino. It's just so mean to do. It is unbelievably mean. And, and,

um, naive. and inconsiderate and also no one fucking asked that's the other part I'm like wait a minute was there a question

of someone was like what do you think of Paul Dano and no he didn't even say that and lately in the past couple years he just comes out and says some whack-do thing that gets him in trouble and he tends to get away with it

he's gotten away with a lot of stuff you know he even fucking defended Roman Polansky at one point That was crazy when he defended Roman Palance. I'm surprised he didn't sneak in the N-word anywhere near. This guy, right? Frankly, that's his main thing. This, dude, what's crazy that I love seeing,

I think what a lot of people probably expect is like to rail in and Tarantino. I find this very disappointing. Like, Tarantino, I'm like, yeah, I kind of expect it out of him on a lot of, like, weird shit he says and gets in trouble for. This to me is like, dude, come on, man. Yeah. What do you do? You're just like tearing down people.

Like coworkers. There's no need to do that. Yeah. You're not just a commentator. You're not someone who just creates content. You are a director, a writer. And what I love seeing, though, so many people have been coming to Paul Dano's defense. Yeah.

Pop, like, well-known people are coming to Paul Dano's defense. And it is really cool to see a lot of people rally behind him, big time. And I think Paul Dano has more range. Like Brad Pitt, I prefer watching because he's fucking Brad Pitt. Paul Dano has more range than Brad Pitt. Yeah. Paul Dano can do from the actors that he likes to work with him. Like, what are you talking about, man?

Yeah, Paul Dano's incredible and he cares. He's passionate. He's invested. Yeah. I like Tarantino's work, but he has quickly become one of those directors where I'm like, I just don't want to think about the guy. Like, I'd rather just watch his work. Like, there are some people I have to separate art and artist,

and this is a personality art and artist. Literally have tickets to watch Kill Bill Bloody Affair tomorrow. Yeah. Like, I've had it for a while. one of my favorite movies ever so I'm excited to watch the whole thing I love the guys movies I'll be there for his 10th film but this is I mean disappointing is the right word it's like a bummer as my as arguing my favorite filmmaker I think it was really fucked up what he did I've heard the take just just in in conversation surrounding this it's like with Tarantino like when he's talking about something he loves like it's so infectious and relatable and when he's talking about something he doesn't love it sounds so petty and flippant and like you know I think the example used was like just it often comes back to just because some obscure film from the 70s did whatever things slightly better than no other film that's attempted it could possibly be good and yeah when he comes out of the pocket like that it often is off put it I think he's a very hyperactive

and and at times immature guy and I and I've definitely when I was a teenager said stuff like this but I was a teenager and I wasn't a esteemed filmmaker talking about my peers so I think it's really tricky because like there are times people say stuff out of pocket and you're like well they're just being dumb for a moment. But, like, he is a 50-year-old man that's been in this industry for 30 years and, like, is looked to and has a platform. So it's a very different thing than, like, me being a teen asshole and, like, not liking an actor. So I don't know. It feels like a child thing to say.

And I get that he's, like, the highs and lows of how he speaks hyperbolicly and enthusiastically. But, like, there has to be a point where, like, the etiquette is acknowledged in the lack of humanity in just tearing down people. Yeah. especially the position he's in. He's a revered filmmaker. And to come out at Hunger Game saying it copied Battle Roy, I'm like, bro, your entire

career is copying other people's shit. Yeah, it's all homage. That's what you do. Yeah. Of anyone to talk about taking other people's IP. What's it? Kill Bill the Bloody Bear. Yeah. I'm seeing Kill Bill of Bloody Fair today for the first time. But the main difference is Tarantino absolutely wants you to know that he's taking

those things because he wants you to know how many movies he's seen it's just an odd i don't know i want to keep liking the guy so i'm just gonna like try not to listen to him yeah that's a it's a really disappointing thing man um it's hard for me to not imagine like what it's like to be in that position where you're just like hearing it as as well of the people like oh man that would hurt i would hurt my feelings so one of the things were i mean i think it's the next thing we're going to talk about is like the celebrity thing we talked about a couple weeks ago and and the party you into uh i was thinking about that with this quote like I work with people that are like peers in the YouTube and whatnot space.

If I found out like someone who's just randomly talking shit about me that I respected, that would be awful. But if I found out it was like someone that I admired, say Paul Dano admires Tarantino because again, he's our age, you would have grown up with Pulp Fiction on. Like it would have been in the Zite guys. I would be so heartbroken if I found out like Matt Lillard hated me.

Yeah. Do you mean if someone that I like grew up watching or admired and like all that stuff was like talking shit, that would be so painful whether or not we're in the same. space or not, but they're in the same space, I just, I think it's so gross. It's not, it's not even set in it for, for a writer. It's shocking how, how little he puts care into how to communicate this, you know, you could say, like, I, I, I didn't really connect with Paul Dano's performance and keep it as that. But then to, like, rail into the guy, like, what is wrong with you, man?

To go full, like, stop, he's already dead. Because, yeah, it's like, we love. Part of Tarantino's charm is how much of a movie buff and how passionate his takes are, but I think there's a decorum you could express that doesn't include completely disrespecting somebody whilst also acknowledging you don't love their work. It's like he's on a podcast, so I get he's probably in a more private environment. Right. So he feels he probably loses sight that whatever he says is going to go out to everybody. But yeah, there's no defending this.

And I'm really happy people are defending. Yeah, that's beautiful. He deserves it. And we'll defend Owen Wilson and Matt Lillard. You don't come out Matt Lillard. I love Owen Wilson. Yeah, he's a delight. And he's great in midnight in Paris.

He's great at midnight in Paris. I just watched his Apple TV show Stick. And he was incredible in that show. I think it's probably his best work he's ever done. Loki. Incredible on Loki. He's incredible. Oh my God.

Loki's. Yeah, I think that's his best work. I'm trying a lot of you. It's probably his best because he's using his Owen Wilson's. With, but I only see, I still only see Mobius. Right. I only see the character. yeah and that's really hard for owen wilson to supersede i i he was stuck in west anderson or uh you know

the zoolander mode for me for a long time yeah yeah for a while i just saw him as hansel but like now i'm because of mobius i'm like this guy yeah that was the time i really felt like he was acting yeah it's probably the hair rocket bottle and that's true changes hair he's hair who's that guy and i was doing hair ads he's like a he's like a hair influencer gorgeous hair beautiful hair deserved gorgeous and matt lillard uh not just shaggy not just stew not just five nights of reddies but But, like, the descendants and, like, serious actual acting work. The guy is so good. He is depth.

He's an incredibly passionate actor. And he could be hilarious and be shy. Nat Lillard's great. Yeah, but he was not in Scream as, Coyces. Was not. No. You didn't say scream. I did.

I said, Stu. I said Shaggy than Stu. It was a second Craig. I thought you were saying, I thought you were saying Stu and Scooby Doo. And I was like, I heard it as Shaggy. He's Scooby Stew, right? Everyone's favorite favorite character. Scooby, Scooby, Scooby, Stu.

Misheard. Yeah, he's great. I love Matt. So Matt Lillard, Titan, Owen Wilson, delight, Paul Dano. Also, just shameless plug, the Batman comic book that precedes the Ridler character is, I think, one of the best actor-written comics ever, and it's the Bible, basically, he wrote to develop the character, and they turn it in a comic. That's cool as hell.

So I like the dude for that. For show. For show. Well, guys, do you hate Paul Dano? Leave your thoughts. sample up. Do a little rant. Have fun. Do a podcast. Who's the worst actor and SAG? Who's the limpest dick

actor and SAG? Next on the agenda, I want to talk about some famous people we met. Hey. It was cool. So we got invited to a Netflix holiday party. I did not know what

that meant. By we, he means he, I was not there. Greg and John were there. John and Greg got invited. The Royal Wii. And I brought my wife. live and it's funny how that has still a thing for when i say that in my head it's a thing and john rock rocks yeah and and okay so when i first showed up i did see joel edgerton from a far now i don't know too much of joel edgerton's work so i didn't really approach him at

first and i was like you know what i'm right i'm not going to approach him then the rest of the party i start seeing some people show up adam sandler shows up that morning when I was eating lunch, I listened to the entire Timothy Chalemay, Adam Sandler discussion. I'm a big Adam Sandler fan. I love his dramatic work. Funny people to me is one of his most overlooked performances and is a strange comfort movie for me. And easily his role that his time goes on, I already identified it when I was young and the more older I get, the more I identify with that role. My favorite of his. He showed up. I was like, oh, I got to say something to Adam Sandler. Okay, maybe I will.

And Olivia and I are in love with that Frankenstein movie. I become obsessed with Jacob Allerty. This was not expecting fucking Jacob Allerdy enters the room all of a sudden. I was like, oh my God. How often am I going to see Jacob Allerty? And Olivia does not give a shit about famous people. And I asked her, like, do you want to say hi? And she actually kind of squeal.

I was like, oh, shit. Now that she wants to say hi, I definitely have to say hi. so john do you have photos oh i've been showing all right let's go story by story all right i went up to adam sandler but don't show the photo yet no don't show it yet don't ruin the fun it's gone it's done it's only the photos have leaked so i went to uh now i should have prepared you so i went up to adam sandler and he at he is as nice as every story you've ever heard it's a pack party he was stayed in the one section the entire time because of course he was getting swarmed he took the time to talk with everybody. I didn't really want to take time from him, but I went up to him, and I said

to him, pretty much what I said to you, like, funny people, I think is one of your most overlooked roles, and I watch it like almost every single year. It's meant, it's meant a lot to me. So I just want to thank you and ask him for a photo. He's like, yeah, let's do it. And he said, you should bring your wife over here. She was, she was at the photo. So someone else took the photo. And that's my Adam Sandler photo. And they were clearly a photographer. Look at this masterpiece of photography. You want to be in focus in this photo, right? You don't really care about the people next Who's this guy? It looks like he's running really fast.

It's like, who killed Flash's father? Oh, that's what they're doing with him. He's the reverse Flash. He's a reverse Flash. What a crazy idea for the next one. Vibrating in place, Adam Sandler. And fortunately, we invited Roxy and Roxy, I know, is genuinely obsessed. And I told Roxy like Adam Sandler, she was free.

out so we could show that photo on screen that roxy proof that adam sandler slows down long enough and uh olivia took that photo that's how you take a photo of adam sampler that's now it's done correct that's how you do it olivia knows the focus is on adam samper i can hear that photo and that makes me so happy and j and john john you have an adam sandler story oh well i mean And, you know, I, you know, my, my lovely lady is a fellow mashole with you. That's right. And, you know, Adam Sandler, hometown hero. Noted Massel.

And so I was like, I don't know, in events like these, you know, my only motivation to kind of approach people, you know, is like, if I'm like, I got to say thanks because of something I like, you know, like, a waffle on the, like, I don't want to take over your time. There's a million people here. But with him, I was like, I got to see if he'll at least say hey to her. Yeah. So, yeah, I got a little video clip of just him saying, hey, Mallory, say, what's up to New England? It was good. That's, I love that. It makes me so happy.

Yeah, it's beautiful. He is as nice as every story you've ever heard. And, like, it was weird to feel like comfortable asking someone on his caliber for a photo. Yeah. I'm feeling like he would be receptive to it. So Jacob Allure is on the other side of the room. Immediately, just so many women clamoring for this guy that line starts at a party. It's awkward.

That's why I was like, I don't know, want to, like, be that guy who waits to, talk, but what I noticed while waiting to talk with him while you're trying to find your way to squeeze in. If you've ever been in one of these events, it's always fucking awkward. I feel like you're pretty good at like knowing how it's it's awkward though. And even if it looks like you're coming, you're like, I hate that this is the moment before the moment I'm excited about. I hate being the guy standing over here. They're aware I'm standing here waiting to talk to them. I had that the same exact night of yours and I'll tell it after. But I had that for like five full minutes and I was like, this is the worst three and seconds in my life. I hate that I'm in your peripheral

lurking. Awful feeling. And there was some person who was trying to get in front of I'm like, no, I've been here for a long time. So I'm like, my wife is right here. And I'm, you know, she'll fucking gut you if you, like, try to cut me. So, but what I noticed while waiting in line, this dude is not who I actually thought he would be in person. I have become a little bit obsessed with this guy in the past. It was just weird to have, like, two things happen the day of, of Adam Sandler, who I was just listening to an hour interview of that morning. And Jacob Allorty, after Frankenstein, because he is my favorite Frankenstein portrayal,

And, you know, I've seen him in Priscilla, I've seen all euphoria, and I've seen like the hot ones interview. I had just listened to the Josh Horowitz interview with him. I think he's an amazing talent. But I never struck me as a kind of guy who would want to talk to people in person. Every single person who came up to him, he was kind of like Adam Sandler. He engaged fully and had conversations, asked them questions. And it was, it was kind of refreshing to see. So it became our turn to talk.

Olivia was paying him a compliment. I've never really seen her, like, get all, like, geeky about something. Yeah. And then at one point she, I forget exactly what she said. Something about, like, she doesn't really go up to celebrities. She said that. And he's like, I'm not a celebrity.

I'm an actor. She said that law. Which is like, if he meant to, you don't really choose that, but okay. I love that he meant. I'm glad you feel that. Yeah, I like that from you. Like, like, you know, if you have to say that to have yourself garred. To people that are celebrating you.

Perhaps. For being super famous. your billboard is right outside literally it's right there but no I get what he's

I understood what he's saying It's the Killian Murphy response It is it is a thing That a celebrity says To protect themselves In some way You know you know Olivia was like

It's a hard thing To write in front of it Like it's a hard thing to like And that's what I love about her She was like She can't hide it Just like That's a little fucking weird

But you know to each other. I love to hear that that's how he feels, though. Like, that makes me happy that that's his worldview. Like, oh, I'm an actor. So then I, I said to him that I had read Frankenstein right before the movie. And when I was watching it, I, like, turned to her. And I was like, this is the best Frankenstein. I've seen, because I've seen a lot of Frankenstein movies. And he was like, wow, man, that really means a lot. I'm like, I'm sure he for this compliment a billion times. The way he just said to think to me as if this was the first time you heard it. I'm like, you're a good guy. You're a good actor. You should be an

actor. And I even said to him, I love how there's this weird art photo. Yeah, I love that this looks like a photo that is of a photo. This is beautiful. But this is like weird art thing behind. I didn't like didn't notice till it was on Instagram already. And I said to him and I kind of got, I remember I've heard you say this to people, something along these lines where I said to him that, and I listened to your Josh Horowitz interview, what you said about Heath Ledger and how much of an influence that was in the impact. I thought that was. what's a great sentiment that you expressed and everything you said

that really showed me a different side of you then I was like, man, this guy's really fucking cool. Yeah. And he was like, dude, thank you so much for watching an interview. Like, I really love doing that one. And to talk about something different, I could see that actually engaged.

Yeah. And then we were taking the photo, we couldn't get the lighting going down. And I was like, I'm sorry for the weight. And he had his arm, he had his arm, like, hey, don't worry about it, man. It's good. And he said to her like,

oh, you look really beautiful to Olivia. I was like, this dude is so fucking nice. Yeah. And I was like, do it. Watch. All right. Let me watch. Easy salt burn, all right?

From Hollywood Greg to cook, Greg. I'll do it. I'll lick the bathtub. Whatever you want. I get it. I understand Barry's whole art. I get it, man. I get why everyone wants to sleep with you in every movie.

I can't even typecast as hot. this guy ever. And then the last couple, Joel Edgerton was free. I got to know. Did you talk about Warrior? That is the only thing I talked about. I got to hear about it. So I was, I was actually standing with Eric Voss and we were talking and Joelerton was right there just talking with one person. He finally got free. And I was telling Eric like, maybe we should just say something to him. Like, I have to, I feel like there's something I want to say. He's like, I'll help you. And Eric was really cool about it because he pretended to just stay in conversation with me we're just listening for an opening and and I said to him like hey I'm I'm I I'm so late to the

party on this I only just watch warrior this year and I was breaking down the entire time and what's cool is I can say that and it's recorded and I didn't say I didn't say that there's the reaction I was like I was breaking down the entire time I literally even called my brother afterwards and I wanted some like personal things there's a reason why that movie affected me so much but there's some things I prefer to not say on the internet and I was but I was telling us, Joel Edgerton, because it was like, right here. And one of the things I was saying to him is that I know a lot of people when they watch that movie, they want to be Tom Hardy because he's like the brooding dude, but when I watch

it, it was, I was like, I'm you. I'm the Joel Edgerton character. So I really, I was highlighting certain scenes. Yeah. And yeah, he started really expanding upon it about the effect of that movie. He told me another story about how he heard how it heal the relationship with its other brothers and a father and he's like thank you so much i love that story so much he said that to me like i loved what you just told me thank you so much for sharing that with me he was very kind and engaging i love this photo because there's like like that's like that's actual like uh connection like you can feel that in the photo yeah eric voss took that photo in focus in focus that's great man he looks awesome too and and last thing was right there i met the uh singers from k-pop team of hunters you

might uh you might know who they are i don't know how to pronounce their names e j re i know how to like I can see it. Yeah. E.J. and Ray, Ray Ami. I forget how to say their names, but they're the singers of the act of Huntrix. And they were also.

They're so cool. So kind. We have the same publicists. Like, holy shit, they're so kind. Yeah. They're good people.

I even said, I'm like, is this party different to you than other parties? You guys go to the, and I think her name is Ray. She's like, yeah, everyone knows who we are here. And then I was like,

I hate to ask. She's like, no, let's do the. the photo like she interrupted me she's like no let's do a photo cute and they immediately got a position so it was a great time and then I got a great photo with my wife just show that photo with my wife was great time information great party so I love celebrities

I worship celebrity you met Olivia I worked I said at the altar of celebrities and coy what famous I'm so glad that she was willing to take a photo with you mine is just I mean I have I have tons of my phone of like the party but I I went to the five nights at Freddy premiere at the same time as this Netflix event

and I had the awkward moment of trying to get into a circle thing but it was at a party where there were a bunch of couches in the middle and that was clearly like to give folks a little barrier if they needed a breather but instead everyone crowded around the edges so they were all trapped in these corners of this room so instead of helping it actually caused like

constant roadblocks so I casually threw cons and stuff no Matt Lillard a little bit and I haven't seen him and since he launched his whiskey brand and since a few different things so I wanted to talk to him like as a person but there was like a line of people to get to him but the problem is like

like as I approached he clocked me and waved excitedly because he's so freaking tall but then there was like four people like enough people that I was like well now I just got to exist right here and like he knows I'm here if I leave it through but if I stay it's weird so for like five full minutes while people said they're little niceties I was just like

and he'd look over and then at one point he's such a sweet dude fuck Tarantino he uh he there was a person waiting to say hi to him and like he was being super kind but he reached over them to touch me on the shoulder to like say hi over the person waiting and it was this really sweet moment of like I see you waiting I'm so sorry but

still being kind to the person so we like touched my shoulder and then we were all talking about like different projects and stuff that's coming up and I talked about like we have some mutual friends outside of he's worked on some things since I've seen him with mutual friends so we were like sharing anecdotes about those friends and talking about those things and then we had this really cool moment where he was like oh dude I haven't seen you since DC congratulations how's that going how's working with James wow and like we started talking about like Scooby and I love that movie and like Matt has he's an angel he literally uh made a video for my little brother and sister as shaggy talking about me to them as shaggy and it's the sweetest thing it's my

favorite thing like i've ever gotten as something for my family and so um we've never actually talked about scuba but i'm obsessed like that's one of my family movies so me and him got to talk about james as like people that have worked with him now so it was this really cool moment where i was like he's asking me about my experience working with someone he's explained and it didn't feel like Celebrity. It didn't feel like fan. I got to like talk to Matt as someone that's like doing something that he thought was interesting. So it was really cool to like catch up with him as a person and to hear how he's doing as a as a dude. But then there was this really awkward moment where like my friend Jasmine came with me and she's like you got to get a picture to send to them and I was like, but we've been people as people for so long and then like he turned around and talk to someone else. She's like ask him and I was like, hey Matt, so sorry. Can I get a picture and everything like shift? He's like, oh yeah. And I was like, damn it. Like, I felt the room, like, suddenly I was like, we'd been cool and people to each other. Now all of a sudden, now I'm a fan again. And I have so many regrets.

But he was an angel, and it was an awkward five minutes of being in arms reached and, like, lurking and, like, being near the tall lurk. I just, I love the human that is Matt Lillard. He is such a doting dad. He is such a person that stands up properly leaves in. He'll do interviews and talk about, like, he said fuck ice at the screening for something at Senesbia. Like, he's willing to say what needs to be said while doing great work. I just have so much respect for the man. And he's always been really good to me.

And like him genuinely asking how things have been and like wanting to hear details. It was really cool. So we had a really cool like moment until I ruined it for a photo. Until I was like, oh wait, you're famous. Let me ruin it. But yeah, it was really sweet. I'm sure he won't remember that. I hope not, but now it's immortalized on the internet.

And then one of my friends' friends is in the movie as well. And we got to catch up about. You know Josh Hutcherson? I know Josh's house. he bought my dream house and I've been to his house for parts that's the same thing I know his house

no a friend of a friend McKenna she is like so talented and crazy like good in this movie and I've never seen her in this type of role so I got to geek out about that and then I found out she's like a giant metal head so we started talking about like metal music and stuff

and we were talking so long her publicist came over and I was that awkward mode of like she was checking out and her client but then I was like I'm so sorry for stealing all this time and McKin's like no no this is Koi he knows everybody and then me and the publicist started talking about like the town and it was this really cool moment of like a PR person got to feel like they were a person at an event not like an item at an event and it was really cool to see someone that had been like waiting to leave get to be like

geek out so it was a really fun party of like let's all be people at each other as opposed to like this is an item yeah itemized and like it was and i met this guy david uh i forget his last name David Decovney David DeCovny David Calveo David Calveo who's in Five Nights at Freddy's Reject Nation member Big old real rejects fan

While I was talking to McKinney He was like I love your YouTube And I was like I don't know which one you're talking about And then I went over and he's like dude I watch rejects every day And I'm such a So we talked to rejects and stuff And it was really cool He's like one of the leads in the movie

To talk to like this dude in the movie About Reject Nation Andrew Calveo Such a sweetheart, big YouTube dude, absolutely incredible in the movie, such great presence in his screen time, but yeah, he was fucking red. What else has he been in? He was in Platonic or one of the, one of the Apple shows. Yeah, on hacks. He was in Hacks, Platonic. He was in the Myth of Quest little side movie. He's working. He's working. He's done a litany of television. But he's a big reject guy. He was so excited to talk about rejects. Is he a patron? David, if you're watching. I just gave him. I know he can afford it now. I just gave him. I just gave him. We We see that Apple TV money. Just gave you your flowers.

You better repay that with patronage. But yeah, it was really sweet guy. And it was really cool to, it was interesting. We talked about the shift in the town and how YouTube, all the actors coming up grew up with YouTubers.

Like this next wave, a lot of them watch us. Like we used to watch like critics and stuff. We've talked about the newspaper era and like wanting to be Roger Ebert. Those actors, since they're like the next generation, all of them have like their favorite YouTubers.

And he was so excited to talk about YouTube. and I was so excited to talk about movies. But he wanted to know about, like, our culture and, like, what we do. And I was like, but you're in that, you did the real thing. But to us, what we do is so artifice. So it was really cool to have that blending of worlds with a publicist and with an actor and with everybody. It was cool.

I'll never think what we do or any YouTuber really is greater than any film maker. This is content. I really don't, you know. The, like, I've met people, actors who are like, what you guys do, you get more numbers than we get on our. shows and everyone knows this but it doesn't matter and i always and i always tell them like yeah but you guys are creating art and we wouldn't have what we are able we wouldn't be able to do anything unless you guys were doing it yeah we have nothing unless you guys do it we're in the echo like you have to

start this out yeah yeah it's it's always kind of weird because i know they're saying it in like a it's very complimentary in a way to be complimentary yeah flattery but that in a weird way that that triggers like an the biggest kind of imposter syndrome a hundred percent you you know it used to for me but now I'm like well I need this because it doesn't pay well so I'm gonna try to do this version of like it helps to like remind us why we do it like because you you work like 90 hours a week at the end of the day like if you were a doctor you'd own five homes like if we're not gonna get if we're not going to get the pay that's worth the time it's good to feel like at least it's causing impact I only own three and therefore really sucks

I know slack in this economy but you don't mean like to know we have impact helps for me anyway. Yeah, that's true, man. That's true. Thanks for sharing that, man. Matthew Lillard, you're a G. Don't listen to Quinn and Tarantino. Fuck, dick. What if there's all big publicity stun, they're all in Tarantino's last movie? You're right. All the actors he made out to be his last movie. How cool with that fee? I'd be like,

holy shit, that was the greatest thing. You could have funny. All three of them would kill at Tarantino. They would. They would. They would especially. I can see Paul Dano and a Tarantino movie. I can see it. Absolutely. But Owen Wilson, especially. I'm like, Owen Wilson would ride the rhythm of your dialogue. And Matt Lillard has that darkness underneath them that would totally be, yeah.

Anyway. Anyway, guys, do you like famous people? We like famous people. Yeah, they keep us employed. Famous people are back. They're back. They were gone two weeks. Two weeks ago, they were gone.

They're back in the game. I was also nervous when I met Seth Rogen. I was extremely nervous to meet Seth Rogen, like top maybe 10. Thanks to Roxy. Appreciate that. I met two heroes of mine. because they're her fucking killed it two jewish heroes two jewish heroes well harrison ford as well no no i didn't meet adam samlick you mad he madame because of him sound like because of you because i told

john no jewish actor harrison ford yeah is he jewish i don't think so he does hate nazis he does hate nazis so we're all jewish if we all that way yeah do we have any super chats no okay Yes, we have a number of them. I don't have the exact count, but they've been coming in since before you were on camera, so. We are totally wrapping it to. Good. Cool. I'll check that one. I just need to do some math here. There's been a lot of re-organizing today and rescheduleing. And it didn't work in the beginning. We had five minutes of internet panic. We're going great. It's a lot of things. Currently got eight stream labs.

Okay. You're into the 30s on superchets. Those are large. Maybe I should close that down. All right, guys, you got, if there's any superchats you want to get in, you got, you're able to put in, you've put in, you got, you got two minutes. We're going to end at a solid 2 p. Oh, no. Let me take off my conscience.

All right. Well, okay, we're going to go through. Okay, let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. All right, we're doing it. Where do we want to start? Let's start with the Super Chats.

Yeah. This looks comfortable. You're right. Oh, yeah. Hey, we're already ahead of the game. We got this shit. Thank you guys for contributing. We never read a stream until we go through them all.

All righty. Let's get it. Let's do it, baby. This is the most we've had in a long time. Thank you. All a lot of $1. It's really smart. Yeah, clever 10V-900.

We're on to you. On the game. Dan V-Train, all right. We got this. Who's top of the list here? Here we go. Let's get number one for the day. December the 5th.

We got Captain Fernandez doing the work. Captain Fernandez, what do we got? Thank you for chiming in. Netflix wants WBIP for future generative AI slop and other acronyms. Oh yeah, man. Do you think AI will be used even more? Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Oh, it's totally dead now. They're going to be... The ocean I'm talking about in the metaphor is AI. That's the end of society. Like, we talked about this with SkyNet. We talked about this with Terminator. Like, this is just a countdown. This is a big old acceleration of it.

Yeah, we're done, man. I mean, to be able to keep up with the load that they're doing. Yeah, it's within, like, not even within our lifetime. It's within like five years. Like, this is so close to. I mean, that's all about gatekeeping as much money as you can, downsizing. What's so funny is all the dumbest, poorest people think it's art. Like, it's so funny that the people that are going to lose first are the ones propelling it

because they're like, yeah, man, it allows for everyone to be creative. But it's like, yeah, but you're not making money because it's not yours. But the people that make these programs that you're fueling are making lots and lots of money. So it's just making the top 2% of society so much richer while poor people are causing their own stupidity. Like, it's so impressively dumb. Tom's a gooder over here, people. I'm excited. The one benefit is stupid people.

going to die off soon. We'll see. They tend to, they're like ants. Well, they reproduce the most. They have like 13 kids. Smart people only have like two. So they've definitely outvoted us.

But it's good because they're being birth to be a bureaucracy coin. No, there's being birth for gun fodder for the next. Who else do we got on here? All right. I'm going to just cut off. Ethan T. Ethan T.

Chiming in T for for Tron. Part one, Part one, sorry, this is part one of two, or many. Happy late Thanksgiving, not to be a pain, but you guys said you would react to the Better Man trailer. All right, John. If you do, please watch the 229 trailer on YouTube. What studio did that?

Because we got some blocks going on right now. Let's find out. We got some blocks. How is Netflix with Blocking Studio? Netflix is the one who gave us two major blocks right now. Oh, how about that? All right, better man. you are looking at Paramount for North America.

Ethan's a patron, right? I believe so. I'll have a little film one for Patreon for him. Copy that. Because I know, is Paramount? Oh, is Paramount? Paramount will demonetize, and they have blocked us before. But thank you.

Don't worry. We'll do it. Alex, write it down, please. Thanks, but what else we got from Ethan? Moving on, Ethan T. Part two, part two, part two, part two, part two, part two. Have you have to react to this movie as someone who's been watching since 15, now 24,

and you guys have felt more like family than my own... Oh, thank you. You should talk to your family. Watch a warrior and then call your brother. You have to believe me when I say this is Greg's movies, even if it's for Patreon. You're saying, better man I should watch because, I mean, he would know my sensibilities and taste.

That seems to be what he's saying, and I don't know. Do you want me to cry? Is that what it is? Sometimes these things come down to. is make him cry Greg's going to cry at this Yeah do the thing I have a feeling that's what

I have no context for what this movie is Robbie Williams He's a monkey But you've I'm dying to see it I haven't seen it Oh you haven't seen it

No I love Weird takes on normal stories And I think a biopic Is like one of the most repeated things So to make him a monkey Is so bold I want to know Is it well reviewed Fairly

I think it got decent Yeah reviews Let's double check that. Better man. Yeah. Let's see. 89%. Oh, it's 90 popcorn.

I was under the impression this movie had terrible fear. I was under the impression no one cared about it and no one liked it. That's what I was under the impression of. Well, no one in America cared about it because no one in America knows who this is. I thought it was only Ethan T for some reason really wanted me to watch this movie. 227. That's very popular. Positive feedback.

I know Robbie Williams, because he was on TRL like three times. So, like, I think millennials might know him, but no one. I know Robbie Williams, as he was mentioned once in an M&M song. That might have been why I looked him up with that led to the TRL. It was one of the random songs in the 8 Mile soundtrack that wasn't lose yourself. I can hear them. That soundtrack's so good. Robbie Williams.

Yeah, I don't even remember the name of that song, but that's how I knew his name. Because I thought he was talking about Robin Williams, but it wasn't. He also does the outro music for Johnny English. Hell yeah. Moving on, we got. The super chats are closing. Diego Guevara, thanks for chiming in. Diego wants to know.

John and Greg doing a wake-up dead man. I'll let you know this. There's going to be two more people there. Guess who that might be with John and Greg? But yeah, I'm very excited. Didn't even see a trailer. Don't even know the cast. Don't know Jack about it.

Cool. Yeah. I know Daniel Craig's in it. I know that it got a very limited theatrical window from Netflix. These are the facts. These are the facts you know. the first one was a huge hit in theaters. Did you see Daniel Craig watch

the Sesame Street of his character getting turned to a Muppet? No. They did Benoit on Sesame Street and there's with Daniel Craig watching it. It's amazing. Oh, that sounds fun. It's really cute. People forget Daniel Craig has a sense of humor. He seems like such a delight.

But thank you, Diego. Hey, Captain Fernandez, Ethan T. Diego. Since we're talking so much about the community and people who are, you know, like in the top viewership, you guys are here every single week. Recognize you guys right off the bat. Thank you so much. Thank you for being here every week. I also want to throw a quick shout out to Bucky Barnes, who's been moderating from the grocery store,

then from McDonald's, doing the work while running some errands. Thanks, Bucky. He is our winner's soldier. Thanks. Killing that game. Thank you. All right. Jamco, or Yomko, if you prefer,

if Deadpool remains, and thank you for chiming in, by the way, in the MCU, doesn't it make sense to put him with the new Avengers? He's an anti-hero. Who wants to be? an Avenger. It's the perfect place for him. His personality would clash so well with the rest of the team. What are your thoughts? So who would Deadpool be in a

lineup with the New Avengers? I mean, the Thunderbolts. Oh my God, I was thinking of a young Avengers. Which would be creepy. I forget Thunderbolts is called New Avengers. I never think of it as New Avengers. And it makes sense because he's like a mercenary and that's a very mercenary heavy team.

It's very like, you know, scrappy ones. He would actually fit really well with them. And, like, it totally plays on all the comedy sensibilities in the darkness. People might watch Thunderbolts, too. That actually would be the way to get it greenly. Co-signed for the budget. Yeah, I think Ryan Reynolds would have a lot of fun with, like, that team, too. I think Sebastian Stan would play well off in White Russell.

Who do you think you would have the best comedy with? I think making fun of Century would be great. Like Lewis Polman and him, like the very straight man, Lewis Pullman, to his wackiness would be solid. That would be fun. That would be a lot of fun. And White Russell, too. White Russell is very good at being, like, stoically funny. I wonder how we would do with

David Harbors a little too He's already kind of big I think he would make fun of him a lot Yeah It'd just be fun to see them play off each other And Florence Pugh would be a fun With Ryan Reynolds I feel like Ryan Reynolds

Would know how to make fun Of the David Harbor controversy Yeah he would You would know how to infuse that In a way that would be hilarious Yeah I'd watch that Thunderbolts too That's a great that's a great call That does make a lot of sense actually

Totally and storywise Yeah and you could get Thunderbolts to get some actual views next I love that movie. Yeah, it's so good. So slept down. All right. Thank you.

Thank you, Jamco. All right. Arc. Arki, thank you for chiming in as well. YouTube Rewind said I was in the top 0.1%. Damn. Every video. 608 videos.

Holy crap. A lot of videos. That's like a couple videos a day, at least. Is it like you opened it and closed it, or did you watch 6008, 40-minute? in one hour videos. There's not quite two videos. That's almost two and a half days of your year.

That's awesome. Like if there were hour long videos, that is like two and a half days. That's four to five waking days of your life. They're incapacitated. That's incredible. I'm so sorry. Yeah.

Thanks, though. They're paralyzed. You know, Wally it up. It's actually a torture system. They're paralyzed in the neck down and they're forced to watch. It's like little water drops of real rejects.

They can't emote. It's just me yelling internet and Tara yelling about bells over again. They can only express with their eyes, and the nurse keeps misreading. Every so often, Andrew comes in, yells at trivia fact. It's a very intense torture, Jamie. Aaron comes in and says something very sweet and waits and listens for a very long time, the whole process. But thank you.

Thank you so much for being here. It's a top 0.1%. That's insane. I hope we meet you in person one day. Yes. Or if we already have, I hope I see you again. It's the only place where it's good to be in the 1%. All right.

Josh Lake, thanks for chiming in. I would love being in the 1%. I just wouldn't disclose it. Secret billionaires. All right. Josh Lake, thanks for chiming in. Josh Lake wants to know. Thoughts on Ocean's 14.

WB. Netflix. Yep, there's that IP. It is a Warner Brothers property. I'm genuinely excited for it because I think that like cast has such good chemistry. And I really like that. those movies. I think if Soderberg comes back, especially, I'll be really excited. But anytime like Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon, do anything separately, I'm always yay. But

when all together, I'm in. Look, I don't know why he hasn't been added. What would really excite me about Oceans 14 is if they added Ben Affleck to the cast. Oh, if he was the 14th, holy shit. How great. I mean, you have, I mean, Bernie Mac did pass away. Yeah. So you would have to probably get another character. I don't think you should replace. You put Chris Rock in, though. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But like a casino-y guy. Or a white guy.

Just got another white guy. Bernard Mac. Yeah. Who's the widest guy? You go for Timothy Chalmy. Let's get Timothy Chalmy. Michael Rappaport. Oh.

He's a very white guy. He would fit in. I was thinking like Ben Stein. He's like the drollest white man. I love the Ocean's movies. I even like Ocean's 12. I do too. People often flack that one.

I like the metanus of it. I think it was ahead of its time. I thought it was really. some of the funniest bits in the oceans movies are in oceans 12 my favorite toe for grace roll the one oh yeah like that's the hotel opening yeah the the scene where matt damon is not understanding the secret language in the restaurant is so funny to me i haven't seen those in years they're great i love matt damon because matt damon's the only one playing a character yeah everyone else is like breadpits eating as bread yeah george cluny is handsome older guy as george cluny whereas

was lionel is his name yeah he's squirley and yeah matt damon's actually a character who evolves in the movies. Yeah, I love the Linus, Linus, Linus, yes. Scott Conn, Casey Affleck, they're great. Ben Affleck, put him in there. Yeah, his brother's even in it.

Yeah. Both of his brothers. Benjamin. Matt and Casey. All right. Put Mark Wahlberg in there. Sign that change. I did watch that.

Boston's 14. I did watch that flight movie. As bad as we think. He did it. He made the movies that he stars in now. Oh, no. He's started too many. Now he's directing him.

making them exactly he thinks those are movies like he's in so many of them oh yeah your resurrection movie is going to be sweet i wonder if he did that to make the money to get resurrection off the ground like i wonder if it was like i hope he made money it's now going to be on my netflix um all right what else we got thanks josh lake all right robert proiser every week thank you for chiming in hope you guys are doing good no we're doing good out in the world never that paramount letter was Oh, yeah, the Paramount, I'm just recontextualizing it, he was just so petty and be like, Trump, block this shit, man, this shouldn't happen because of this, this, this, and this, huh, when they started this conversation. When they do it, it's an antitrust violation. When we do it, it's fine. Yeah. There wouldn't be favoritism here at all.

No, but legal things. Yeah, that letter is, yeah, I agree. Robert goes on to say it sounded like it was written by an orange guy who has many examples of doing stuff like that. Hey, that orange guy is getting us rush hour four. Directly. This is a movie-related news item. I can't wait for rush hour four. It's going to be huge. It's going to be huge.

Brett Ratner's back. The biggest movie you've ever seen. That's so excited. It's going to get the biggest box office we've ever had. To my understanding, Brett Ratner made a documentary about Melania. Seriously? I think that's the story. He made a documentary about Melania.

And Trump, of course, thought it was good because, you know, he compliment the guy. And then he greenlights a movie. That's how it works. Compliment the guy. He pardons criminals. Society's overcriminate. Really good, man. Culture's done.

We had a good run. I don't know, man. I don't think we need a re-election. Just keep it going. That's the goal. Keep the train going. Tune in to find out. Rush hour for.

They were trying to get rush hour for for a very, very long time. And it just took one man. A ballroom and green lighting I was going to say Are we going to get a cameo Like a Home Alone 2 style cameo If they do green lighters I hope so

All we got to do so many is The culture jokes You know is the man to do it Brett Redd People have been championing it A bit for a Brett Rettner Redux for a long time There's anybody who should be doing

offensive in 2025. Bring them back. Let's get Kevin Spacey in it too. But those rush hour movies are fucking fun. They're great. Oh, I love the movies. They are a really fun movie.

I love those. Yeah, I do love them. And you know what? It was sad to be like, oh, I guess we do share one bit of agreement Trump and I. It would be like Rush Hour. This might sound uncouth,

but I really hope they don't neuter them. Like, I want them to be like the, like I don't want Rush Hour for to come out and be like not Rush Hour. Yeah. It has to still be those. This is the one good thing red pillism can do for us.

Yeah, it's rush hour four. Unadulterated rush hour that is as mildly racist as it needs to be. I still want lethal weapon five. I want rush hour four and I want gladiator fights Jesus. Two of those might happen. Just go pay Trump a compliment. He'll make it happen. Hey, sir, I made a documentary about your other wife and you burying her and your golf course.

I don't believe you're in those files. Oh, lethal weapon. It's just all about Riggs and Murtah destroying the MC files. Anyway, what else we got? All right, moving right along here. Jamco, Yomko is back. Thank you for chiming in once again. Could Mantis be used to let Bob save the world as Century while suppressing void?

Use Red Guardian's idea and strap Mantis to Bob's back. yes technically that that actually took me some thinking yeah no i'm impressed at the layers here because mantis would be able to control the emotion but the void isn't purely emotion we it was implied in the third act that void needed him to let go

in order to overcome him because of the like the punching scene but conceptually mantis would be able to control his emotions enough to subside him but i don't know if they're going by hulk rule or if they're going by like who's stronger in the moment rules. It's my hero academia rules.

Do you think Mantis will be back? John's a big mantis, man. Definitely. I'm a big fan. I've written the change.org petition. I think she's great, too.

The actress. Corey forgot her name to. Palm Clemente. Thank you. Eric D.P. and Palm Mantis. I don't know if the guardians will come back

because I don't know if there's like a for them without James Gun. I know Star Lord, is it Star Lord for sure coming back? They said that like five years ago. They said Harry Stiles was heroes. They've said a lot of them. They said the guy from Ted Lasset was Hercules.

We're going to find out in a couple weeks. I think they could come back for like a run by. When Dr. Strange and Charlize Darren show up. Dude, what do you think? Do you think this first trailer is going to show new characters? Or do you think it's just going to be a teaser with Doom? I feel like they should just keep it focus on Doom. I hope so.

I hear it's really short. I hear something like a minute, a minute and a half. And then we'll do probably like a four hour live stream on it. Sweet. Okay, cool. Yeah, we'll make sure every frame. We're going to zoom in an answer. And we're definitely not going to answer the same questions.

No, no, no, no, no. It'll be all brand new and fresh. It's going to go great. Explain this ending of a minute-long trailer. It's going to be awesome. All right, let's go. Did you guys get that Easter egg? Oh, we got it.

Okay, after the next one, then we'll hop on over to... No, after Charles, Charles, I'll do some streams. All right, we'll get up to Charles. Let's go, baby. Welcome home brother Charles. Silhouetted Animator. Hi, buddy. Thanks for chiming in.

Worth pointing out, Tarantino's iconic foot focus shot in Django Unchained is a noticeable change of pace. It's Jamie Fox's towards the start. Ha-ha. I will elaborate on a different thing in that opening. Something that I thought was remarkable in that film is how lovable Christoph Waltz is in that movie.

He's absolutely lovable. One of the first things he does in the first few minutes that movie. He just randomly murders a horse. Have you seen in a while?

Not in a long time. There's just when he goes like, I'm looking to buy Django. That's a pretty good gross out,

Paltz. Pretty good waltz. This is my American accent. I enunciate. And he means German. Is him speaking

English is what he's doing. Yeah, he's not doing an American accent. But yeah, he just murders a horse. Just to make a point

I don't remember that at all And then the horse falls Was it an injured horse No It was just one of the guys On a horse It wasn't attacking him Or anything

Just shoots the horse And kills him And then he's so lovable In the whole movie And as a guy He was a vegetarian That was hard to love that man It's hard to love

It's weird Next scene like this guy's great Tarantino's really good At making Unlikable people likable Yeah Just on himself Like everyone

Like when Tarantino We love a shoot the horse moment You should write your own dialogue. Oh, God. All right. All right. Thank you, Charles.

There's too much sex in movies. Charles. Oh, Charles, Flix Fix. Thank you for, oh, oh, hold on. Let's cut to a single on that. There you go. Charles says, Take my money, Zaddies.

And Alex. I went back to the gym. LMA.M.A. A week and a half of not going. Coy, why aren't you flexing to? Oh, so sorry. Cois lost weight. Yeah, lost weight.

I'm getting back and getting back in it. I've seen in the face. God, these, these, his hair and muscles are in sync. You got to, you guys got to get on. That vein right there on the right. Look at that. It's Bain right there. That's Batman and Robin.

Bain, vein, vein. Yeah, I'm getting vascular again. A signal will work. Bivascular doesn't really kick in until after like 16% body fat. So I know I'm under 16 again, which feels good. I can outline it. I was like 19 for a while. Dude, you got real chunky.

We should be fun. You got to fill that mic is reattank. I want to go from 19 to 9. I want to get down to 9%. I'm doing it before June. I'm not going to do a body composition until like February again. Oh, I'm not. Definitely not going to look now.

I've been like super healthy Sunday through Friday after. Morning. Friday, Saturday night. Like, yeah, I'm like, my fitness coach is not thrilled with my lack of consistency. But I'm like, you know what, man? I warned you. It's the holidays. I got my photos.

I've been stressed. Hovering in the same weight gain spot. It's dark for 19 hours, coach. I love it. But I'm also doing a lot of cardio. I love cardio. My fiance made me blondies, a whole tray of blondies,

and that's my real cryptonite. You ever have vanilla brownie? No. Game changer. It's like a giant cookie. I ate a whole tray. You ever have Icelandic wine? No.

What? Icelandic wine. We had that in a big, bear when I went to Big Bear. How great was... Oh, dude, how was your Big Bear? Did you go into my places I wrecked? I think so.

Did you do that hike? I did a hike that was a 10-minute walk from me. Okay. Castle Rock is... We walked over to the... Did you fix the places? The village was... The village entrance was a 20-minute walk away and it was Thanksgiving weekend, so we just

walked over there. Yeah. Went to the lake. But yeah, like, there was some spots where, like, the fudge place is super packed, but I was like, I don't know, I just wasn't craving fudge at the time. All right. So all the money that I was going to, like, that we save for the trip, we use it to buy a nice bottle of wine. Fuck yet.

Which to me is an $80 bottle of wine. Whoa. I had a salad. Then I got a bottle of wine. This man knows how to live. I'll tell you what. Put to this restaurant. And I was like, do I buy food?

Or do I get this house salad for $10? And then we splurge on this bottle of wine. You guys want to hire you stay 10% body fat. You get salad and a bottle of wine. That's why we ever had. It was delicious. I hope so. Yeah.

That's eight bottles of wine. I've never spent. That was, we literally had a, we literally negotiated of like, we've, we've never go on trips. We've never bought a nice bottle of wine. Should we do this? It was a whole conversation. Then we pulled the trigger.

All right. And it was worthy? Yeah. Hell yeah. But we didn't do a lot of other things that we wanted to do. Big Bear is really cool. I like that. It's one of my favorite day trip escapes.

I love it. Oh my God. It's totally my vibe. Mountain town. Yeah. You know, everyone's Republican. You know it. Yeah.

Yeah. I love those flags. Big fan of a flag town. I just love when you're like up in a secluded mountain and you feel the need to like, you know, flag up your entire fortress to let everybody know without any equivocable doubts where you stand. I'm like, we're removed from everything. My seven neighbors need to know how I vote. Hey, man. I have a couple Republicans in my neighborhood and what's cool about them.

You know when there's danger. They're the ones with guns who are going to help protect us. I mean, that's in seriously. I love protecting us is in their big priority. L.A. is, dang, I've gotten close with them. L.A. is very dangerous people. There's fucking homeless people on our, on our cams, on doors and stuff. They're like, oh, my God, they're everywhere.

I'm less worried about homeless people. Just like, going through our shit. I'm like, yeah, it's scary. I'm more likely to get along and identify with the homeless person without a gun than a Republican. Is homeless person insulting to say now? Un housed? I don't know what the fuck the term is anymore. Is it unhoused?

What's offensive? The left has gone too far. There's no language that's allowed anymore. I'll tell you, if an unhoused person's watching this, I don't know how unhoused you are. I think the most considerate accepted nomenclature is unhoused people or people experiencing homelessness. But I mean, I don't think homeless has become so tabby and you cannot say it.

We're laughing at people that have lost everything. Criticizing the term of unhoused while reading streamable contributions. And what I'm trying to say, and I just said, we got an $80 bottle of wine. And these homeless people are breaking through my rack cam. And you're advocating for guns to know that you're safe. Can people bring out their guns so I feel safe about these people that lost everything because society failed them? I've converted it to the other side. You see, this $80 bottle of wine is safe in my gunless neighborhood.

Get the guns out. Jet Bob, I need the not. bring out the barretta get me the son off it's funny because like everyone rent our neighbor I'm like yeah most of you guys are definitely like hardcore liberal

Greg owns three houses yeah I own three houses two of them are liberal which if we were like a popular if we were like a popular podcast like those other fucks we would be getting clicked out

and actually care about our opinions we wouldn't get to keep back because I don't watch any of those I really don't watch any of those podcasts like Andrew Schultz and whatever but I watch all those channels that like do drama videos about them like

8 the 10 minute ones that are clip it out like I don't even know their names the guy with the fucking wife who's always talking down on him Hassan something or another and does that his name? Hassan Monash no no Piker Hassan Piker

there's one guy who's on the shoulder show who has a wife who's always insulting him. I was just watching this too lazy to try video. Yeah, too lazy to try. I watch his shit, but I don't watch the actual podcast. I watch everyone who's like, well, here's Joe Rogan screwing himself again. Love an elephant

graveyard video. Yeah, but I don't ever watch the podcast. So you're literally doing what we made. You're watching the reaction but not watching. Acoche, that's his name. Now I'm part of the actual thing. You're in the culture by reaction video. Now I'm trying to get in those videos. what's next on here

but in I want a caveat I do think it isn't fair that it does feel like you can't say certain words because of fear of reprisal from either extreme and I think we give I give the right a lot of shit

and I don't give the left nearly as much shit as I should because we should be able to like talk without fear of like using a term that evolves and changes without being like insulting we shouldn't be insulting but we shouldn't worry about a term

being insulting unless it's actually insulting term yeah well yeah it's that thing where the pendulum swing so far that you're like. Benevolently, but so far in one direction. That's why Rogan went Republican, because, like, one side was paying him and the other side was trying to end him.

Which way he drifts? Like, it's very... I would make so much money on Fox News if I hated people. Yeah. And I also pick and choose the words where I'm like, you shouldn't say that anymore. Right.

I'm very much that guy. I'm like, there are some words. I'm like, nope, I choose not to say those words. I don't agree with the usage of them anymore. And then there's other words, I'm like, well, you mean I can't say homeless. Yeah. And I get that, like, every generation

decides and changes those but like there are times and I'm like really that's that's the battle then again I haven't been educated on I'm sure I truthfully have not had the argument presented to me on why not to say it I just know that that there's a new term and I don't know the why behind it so maybe if I learned the why context could change everything yeah that's that's why there's why there's why I was like no I want to still say it then when I learned the why I was like okay you know what I do I understand there's a ton of like Native American ones I didn't know that were just part of her culture that I had no idea we're like I used to say powwow and like Indian giver and all sorts of shit that I was like fuck that's all because you know the source of why they started saying it that's different yeah anyway what we got here back to racism got a very unracist couple of comments from Dan v 900 to kick us off at the stream labs thank you for chiming in Dan v first one says Netflix buying WB is disastrous for the film industry while paramount WB would have been disastrous politically the Netflix company CEO Couldn't pretend that theatrical windows would last. We know Gunn doesn't care about theaters as much because he's admitted to shortening the 45-day window for Superman to 35 for Peacemaker. Oh, interesting argument. Gunn isn't Nolan. Universal only had Black Phone 2 in theaters for 18 days

where the studios have hurt themselves before Netflix. 40 to 5 days is already not long, but streaming kills films. well keep in mind again this is video on demand this is not the same as going to a streaming service and that was the short yeah that's a huge difference because there's actually money being exchanged for the movie and that's like half a caveat because i agree it is really short even though you do make money on video on demand it's not the same as streaming but it is really short and but i also see the reasoning sometimes depending on seasonal and like the purpose.

I actually understand the purpose for Superman of what he was saying for accessibility. Like during the holidays, a lot of these studios shorten their windows of when something will go up. Like I'm sure Wicked too, if we look it up, I'm pretty sure that's coming out on New Year's. And that's shorter for Universal Unusual. And that's a huge movie.

The reason why is they're doing that because families are home. And I remember they did that last time for Wicked really screwed us over. I was in New York, I was really upset. So I was like, you sons of bitches. So I remember that that shit

was a way shorter window. It was like 30 days, man. And now it's a problem. Now it's an issue. But, and sometimes Disney does that too. So sometimes there's reasoning. Now that being said,

you are correct. Yeah, all of those caveats, notwithstanding. Yes. You are correct. And I didn't even consider that fact of, at the end of the day while being a CEO of DC Studios

he is an employee he has there's certain things I'm sure he would not want to talk badly about Zasloff and decisions that have to be made where he can't say that's a thing with being an employee

but any job you guys have you can't like these guys they can never talk bad about me ever if they they can't for the company they can't confirm me they can't ever tell me when I'm out of line

we have to tell him all of his abs look good they can't tell me when I lack self-exed awareness. Yep. In fact, whenever you are out of line, we have to actually make up the reason why you're actually in line and setting a new precedent for us to follow.

We have to explain why terms are inappropriate. We have to get him all the backstory. He's out here just slinging slurs. We're like, no, no, you can't say that one. And if I say the wrong word, someone here gets blamed. Or it becomes part of community culture and we have to say the word. And that's James Gunn's relationship with David Zazlaw is what I'm getting at, people. Well, what I think is interesting is Gunn has very, he's been outspoken about the theatrical.

like he likes theaters and stuff but the Superman thing I was even outspoken about thinking it wasn't good and then it did do exceedingly well on VOD which helped the movie make money so it's one of those things where I don't understand the business enough on the financial side to know what's going to help the movie I'm really focused on the movie theater and that is why I don't know what this Netflix thing does in five years to the industry that I'm focused on I love individual movies but the movie theater itself it does not vote well sweet sauce I agree all right let's sharpen back Back up, guys. Hassan Ali, take it away, John. Read it Sharp, read it fast. Hasena Ali, is anyone planning on watching the Stranger Things finale in theaters? Also, will there be any Christmas movie reactions? No to the Christmas movie reactions. That's not, huh?

No, I don't pay attention. If it's not my thought. Lethal weapon. All four lethal weapons. Actually, I know, the lethal weapon. John, the cover lethal weapons. My legit favorite Christmas movie. I did put that up because.

people, it is a Christmas movie. And it actually is not like the one, people are like, oh, it's got a scene where there's a tree. It's actually a Christmas. No, I think it's way more a Christmas movie than diehardt. It's a, yeah, there's family elements. It uses the setting. It uses, like, themes. It has a Christmas tree fight scene. Yeah. It's Christmas movie. No, it really is a Christmas movie. Actually, there's two Christmas tree fight scenes. One lit, one unlit.

Oh, yeah, one in the beginning. When he's buying the, yeah. So, I mean, it's a Christmas movie. And I'm glad John saw. Yeah, but never Elf. We're never going to cover Elf. Fuck that huge movie. one of the most notable modern Christmas films that I used in a GIF at Alex this morning that I used in a GIF at Alex this morning No we won't cover that one though I don't know I don't know who's doing the Christmas

I don't know who's I don't think anybody here They sold out super fast this or things movie They opened a second window of them for 730 But I want to see it Yeah Aaron's going at 730 Aaron got it But I want to see it like ASAP so I can review it because we're part of the system,

which means we're all working Christmas. Hell yeah, man. So excited. The Seastore system, baby. All right. And New Year's. Are you guys going to see it in the theaters? Let us know.

All right. Stephen, thank you for chiming in. Just got out of Kill Bill, the whole bloody affair. And Five Nights at Freddy's Two, Double Bill. Whoa. That's like a triple Bill's worth of a movie.

It's like 12 hours. To the Netflix news, Goodbye Cinemas. Films are meant for cinema. Kill Bill still gave me goosebumps. 20 years later going for train home catch up on the VOD love from the UK oh thank you stephen thank you Steve uh because of Greg I'm going to see kill bill the whole bloody in two hours and 45 minutes hell yeah man I've never seen the whole bloody affair I know neither have I

John has but this one has eight extra minutes than the one you've seen John yeah I saw this a maybe a decade ago or more at the new Bev so this was like a cut that had no intermission and no completed anime sequence but it was like the best way to I've experienced those movies I also haven't seen them since they were in theaters 22 years ago so I'm seeing this pretty much

for the first time and seeing it right thanks to Greg said well volume one is one of the greatest life-changing theater experiences I've ever had went to a night show randomly first Tarantino movie I'd ever seen that's cool and it

I was by myself in the crowd with a packed house I'd never seen violence like that on screen and I didn't understand the reaction I was like kind of scared of how fucking violent intense it was yeah if the people were like laughing

and I'd never experienced that type of gore before to laugh with how absurd it is and then I found myself laughing but not quite understanding while still being like this shit's super intense yeah yeah I love that movie like I had the biggest crush on Lucy Lou after the first one

Like that fight scene, I don't even remember the movie. I just remember that fight scene being like, I'm really aware of the violence and feel kind of nauseous, but I think I'm turned on? Like, it was the weirdest emotion of like, strange boner. Yeah, so I'm talking about. Silly rabbi.

Now I'm aroused by Maces. Let's keep it going. What is that? The weird white-ons, shouts out Brett Goldstein podcast. Anyway, films to be buried with. Hercules? J-Dell. Here we go.

J-Dell. Thank you for chiming in. Hey, gang. ever thought about reacting to euphoria that would be a hard show to get past the seven minute edits

or is the subject matter a bit too heavy it's not the subject matter that's tough it's the it's what's on screen you could get away much more with censoring violence than you can with any motion of sexuality

it's fucking obnoxious you could censor everything but if there's like it looks like a hip is kind of moving There might be a boob in there I can tell flesh is on screen It's crazy how we've got it I'm like

This is just a giant pixel It's just a fleshy square There are sometimes people comment They're like, why did you censor that? I'm like because America It's not the YouTube censorship is crazy Yeah public service announcement We don't like censoring stuff

We just we have to Otherwise you won't be able to see it What a lot of people don't know is I mean we shoot a way ahead now And so a lot of the times we have a new edit up that's censored, it's because we have already gotten flag. So, like, we know what's not us taking a guess sometimes. A lot of times it's, no, we were told directly that this is not a good thing to keep in your video. All right, but thank you. I don't

know if we will, but I did ask Jacob Lordy about that. And before it was announced that they were actually filming it and he was, before it was official. And yeah, he's like, yeah, it's so excited. I've ever seen any of it. It's really good. Oh, I think it would change. That was the show that made me go, I get why people love Zendaya as an actress. Really? She has her best work I've ever seen is in that show. She's fucking good. She's great and challengers.

She's great. Yes, she's great in challengers. There's, I would still say euphoria is undoubtedly her best work. Okay. There's like worked out. Like, holy crap. She's more talented than Tom Holland. Well, if you guys want to watch me watch an amorphous blob of euphoria maybe more... Yeah.

It's a black screen to me being like... So graphically sexual. Yeah. And it's also eight episodes, two seasons, it's two seasons, eight episodes each and season three without April 2026. I think it's one of the most raw, well-acted drama I've come across just to bolster your assessment. Very true.

Thank you, J. Dell. Oh, my goodness. We actually have another, we have a couple from Jaydell. We have a few from J-Dell, so I'm going to combine all of those. Jay-Dell goes on to say, I'm back, fellas. As an aside, Precious with Gabri Sidibe. Romeo and Michelle's high school reunion Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino

Totally Killer, 23 and unhinged with Russell Crow are good films to check out in their opinion. Also, weapons, fun fact. Amy Madigan, who plays Aunt Gladys, said director Zach Craigor gave her two secret backstory options.

Either she was a sick woman who used dark magic to live or a creature pretending to be human, but told her not to say which she picked. Thoughts. That's one. I would say, first, thank you for those recommendations and for supporting us, as always, my friend.

Second, I would think that it is from the movie we watched, it seems like it would be the former. The sick woman who used dark magic to live. I thought that was spelled out. And the entire performance and how you get, and she got younger.

Yeah, everything kind of seems to imply that. But maybe her getting younger was just her becoming more human, but I implied it as the former as well. Zach Kregor says he wants to actually fulfill that prequel backstory. I know Zach Kragher is a genius. I don't like explaining too much. I don't like that.

I'm not a big fan of that idea. Yeah, I'm not. I would like to be wrong, though. Didn't like weapons as much as everybody did. Hot take. I thought it was fine. I think you got overhyped for me. You didn't like weapons as much?

I thought it was a good movie. I didn't think it was like revel. It doesn't make my top 20. Oh, wow. Really? Yeah. The thing you got a job at Netflix. Job security Netflix, because I didn't like weapons all that much.

I thought, I like Barbarian a lot more. I think I like Barbarian more still. Yeah. I thought weapons was like, it wanted, it was doing bold things, but the whole time I felt like it was like, ha, ha, I'm doing a little thing. And I was like, all right, we get it. Like, it felt sure of itself in a way that it didn't feel punk like barbarian. It felt like it knew it was doing a bold thing, but it was aware of that and it had

the self of the bat. I guess, yeah. Well, to each their own wrong opinion. Yeah, there it is. Yeah. All right, well. Coy likes everything except weapons.

Yeah, Nula in the chat says that Coy Chondro looks like Green Arrow from the cartoon, so we'll use that as a segue. Yeah. Stevens back. Stefan. And I look like canceled.

The UK was supposed to get HBO Max next year sometime. Don't think that's happening now. Oh, you guys still don't have it? That's bonkers. Oh, that sucks so much. People were really mad at my creature commandos spoiler reviews. And I was like, I don't know what to do.

Like, you're not kidding it for a year. I'm sorry. Don't watch this button. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, you guys are all like illegally downloading this shit, aren't you? Yeah. You thieves. I don't know what it's like to do that.

Never. No reaction channel knows what it's like to do. To sail the seas of pirate. No one knows what it's like. To find a torrent. Anyway, we'll see. Thanks, Stephen. We got DeMani, and then we'll refresh.

DiMani says this. Thank you for chiming in. Missed you guys. Hi, buddy. Just want to say, Greg, you genius mastermind first. Coy and first Coy, and now you finally got me to love Aaron with the welcome to Dan True. Yeah, with the welcome to Dairy Reactions after two years of watching Real. I'm going to say Reek Rejects is an intentional game of fun.

Thrones nod. Also, need a Roxy regretting you reaction with someone. Oh, yeah, I want to watch that. That just looks like a great bad time. Yeah, man. But Mason Tames is a delight. I really like that guy.

And he's the highest grossing actor of all time. Oh, yeah, for sure. Since 94. So, are we allowed to give an opinion on the episode that's coming out? Or no. The new welcome to Derry?

Yeah. I haven't seen it. I don't know. The penultimate. I have. Oh. I can't. I don't know if you're allowed to even give me a thumbs up. I don't know the rules.

I see. Well, you should talk about Andrew or Aaron then. Your options are it was great, it was good, it was fair, it was poor, it was terrible. And one of those is Greg's opinion. Yeah. I'll say the show, even just based off the first six, I think, is better than the movies. I like them as much as the first movie

which means I like it better than the second movie but I want to see if if the landing is because I love the show but I love that first movie It's totally my sensibility Yeah

It's everything I love I don't know what happens In the final episode I hope every kid gets murdered That's Greg's sensibilities This is why Greg and Olivia Don't have kids Because Greg is like

It's everything I love Dead kids Like let's fucking go show I'm loving it I think it gets better every week And five and six We're insane

My crazy theory, and maybe I don't watch any videos on it, but my theory is that the final episode, there's no indication of what happens in the next episode. I've had this theory for a while, is that the final episode will be a time jump to 27 years later. Oh, I think one of the characters is the young version of someone that we know. Really? Yeah, okay. That's my hot take. And then that time jump happens to contextualize who they are. Yeah, hope so. That'd be cool. Yeah. I love the show. But they should kill off every chop. But all the kids got to go, except the one that lives to 27. I know people who can't watch it because of that.

Really? I'm like, oh, that's what got me hooked. Fuck them kids. Why I'm here. I thought it was brilliant in that first episode. You didn't have two main characters and then kill off to them. Like, the three of them? Like, so smart.

I heard that the show was an anthology and it would change every 27 years, but I didn't know it was by season. I thought it was by episode. So when the kids died at the beginning of the first one, I'm like, they're going to kill everyone every episode. I thought every episode was just a massacre. I was like, it's going to go back to like the 1500s. But yeah, I love the show. I'm impressed. Oh, yeah, those kids, those kids are also really good actors, man.

Yeah, they found it a lot. I mean, Andy Muscietti, Annie Muscietti is so good at finding good kid actors, but directs the hell out of them. It reaffirmed my, because, yes, the Flash is not the movie that makes me go, I can't wait for Raven the Bold. But then when I saw this show,

which is now going to be owned by Netflix, I went, oh, sweet. They got their new Stranger Things. They think it's... Their new Stranger Things just says Pennywise, directed by Musquetti. Anyway, let's carry on my wayward son. All right, back to the super chats.

Anything come out of CCXP while we've been talking? Let's go to the board. Alex, pay attention to... Alex, you can just ask Alex to pay attention to the chat. Alex, if the chat tells us that there's some big... I don't think the big panel is still tomorrow. That's a Disney panel. Diddley P.

I think they'll show any Doomsday? No. No. They might show like five seconds of it, like a tease of the teaser. Probably just the title. Yeah. While they play that tune. Maybe the mask.

But they should play it backwards. I get to the mask, maybe. Because it's like two weeks to Avatar. It's not like we've seen the mask in the post-credit scene for Fantastic Four. No, I keep forgetting it. I keep blocking that from my mind. What do we got, John? All right.

We're picking back up after Charlie's Flix Fix, who is going on five o'clock. I got a shoot at 3.30. A hard out at two. Greg, hard out of it. Hard out of two. At 3.30?

I mean, we weren't able to move tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Got no choice.

Heck yeah. Make sure he's here. Yeah. All right. What do we got? Read it fast. Read it sharp. Read it clear.

Here we go. Sebastian Eunts. Thanks for chiming in. Woo! Best part of my Friday. Hope you guys are doing great. and had an amazing Thanksgiving.

Greg, was there a doomsday trailer during Avatar? No. No, there was not. There was a movie Avatar. Mm-hmm. Which was long. That was a thick boy. It was a thick film.

It was a thickie. And I overall liked it. Generally speaking. I'm hopeful, but I don't know. Cole, you love Avatar movies. I don't think this would win if you over. If I don't like the first two, I'm not going to, this isn't the one. I would definitely put two is still my favorite.

I like two. I love two. Two is the only one of them I love. Two is the one you could most confidently like make an argument to someone who's opposed to it for. You can't really do that for three. But I think people who love Avatar one really love this. one a lot and like this one more than Avatar 2 like just from the sentiments I'm seeing I'm not seeing many people who love Avatar 1 and then watch this like more

people like us who were like I love Avatar 2 but I didn't really love part 1 really are kind of like more our opinion but yeah that's just my thought but no there wasn't the Spider-Ran noir poster came out I don't if you saw that I put that in our run now oh yeah sweet let's keep it going all right we got Ray Torres next thank you Thank you, Ray, for chiming in. My wife and I went to prep for Dooms Day, but Endgame and Infinity War at a clear watch order. With so many releases, how do you prep now without burning out?

The oversaturation feels real, thoughts? You suck it up. There's someone here who watched 608 Real Rejects videos. You can watch what, like, 30-something-odd movies and, like, 100 episodes of television. maybe more than that most likely more than that that's more than a semester

of like film school viewing yeah that really is oh wait no you would have to like then fucking also include all the X-Men movies now the Spider-Man movies that are not Tom Holland the new fantastic yeah if you really want the true experience

if you don't want to be a bitch about it you said you wanted us to do that for leading up to Secret Wars Greg we got to start well it's all that's going to be on the channel that's it everybody's like oh you talk about DC too much welcome to Marvel year welcome to 365 uploads that's right we're just doing every Marvel adaptation ever made already covered but again and some DC I don't know how you do it I think they should they should give a watch

order that's a great question and I am not going to stress myself out over it this the last couple of phases haven't been great enough for me to want to do that they should do the Patrick H. Williams just put out a syllabus before every movie watch these ones yeah I'm excited for Lord of the Rings, though. I'm excited for the more contained rewatches were planted. Because the big ones, like, that's intimidating.

Like Indiana Jones. Hey. Josh Lake. I've only seen the new one once and the rest when I was a kid, so it's been long enough. Yeah. Dr. John.

Dr. Jones. All right. He was so good in Zootopia, too. Indeed. I haven't seen that yet. It was real cute. Ki-Hi-Quan. He's real cute.

Yeah. Dr. Jones. He's in Goonies. He's in Goonies. All right. We're going on to Josh. like now.

Where we get lost. Deadpool and thank you Josh by the way chiming back in Deadpool and Wolverine's budget was $553 million.

How big do you think Doomsday and Secret Wars could get and can they make that back if it does?

Boy, was it really that much money? That's the number that came out this week. I don't know. $553 million?

I don't know how much I believe. people that just say, like, you can just type on the internet and hit post. I don't know what to believe. I don't know how anyone would know that. Right. And it's 53. I also like that it's like $533,800 and $6,000 and $22. A lot of times with these production budgets, it's kind of bullshit what people report. Right. That's what I mean. Like, I don't know how true that is. A half a billion dollars seems crazy. That's too much money for any movie. It's too much money for anything.

That's more than Way of Water reportedly, which they didn't have to like innovate a whole new way to make movies to make deadpool over yeah yeah there's very few cgai characters and also they didn't hire half the actors back they had the B version of them to save money like juggernaut wasn't viny jones and stuff they shot it in like the desert right like none of this adds up to five hundred two million dollars it's because they bought the actual fox logo even yeah we bought fox from the yeah and that was 540 million dollars even the tv a low cheap yeah like i don't know if any of this is translating.

I don't know. Damn, no, I think Avengers Secret Wars. Can you imagine it to the plot? Oh, God, that would be crazy. 30 million opening weekend. I think it's number three most anticipated on, they did like a big survey

at Alamo draft houses. It's only three. What's ahead of it? Dune three is number one. Dune three? I mean, okay. The Odyssey. Okay, if you're going against filmmaker people.

But it's the Alamo. Yeah. So the Dune, Odyssey and then Endgame. I'm in a Doom. Dumes Day. Wow. I'm excited for the trailer, man. I'm hopeful.

I'm so excited. I've got a scar on my piece. Okay. Josh late. Why is he Dr. Evil? I get a shirt mirror on my face. I love Silver. Alan Smithy. We love it. Thank you for chiming in.

Happy Friday Rejects. Got my Reject Things shirt in the mail yesterday. The designer. of that is in the room. Love it. Also, I blame this whole Netflix merger on Paul Dano.

It is obviously his fault. That motherfucker. Thanks again for your sweet reactions. Peace. Thank you, Alan Smithy, for always being here. I'll tell you a fun fact about that reject reject shirt. We launched three shirts.

When that shirt first came out, when that first presented, I'm like, I don't get it. And I was so, like, Like, I don't know about this. Other people here were like, I love it. And I was like, well, here's my thing. What do you mean? Like, you're rejecting things?

I don't really understand what that means. It's a command. And it is the bestseller out of the three. That's always how it goes. It's always the one I was like, I don't know about this. And it's like TikTok, the one you just throw away. And all the ones we put all this. That is the classic creative play.

The stress the night before launching that of, I had to do editing myself and fucking barking orders in a group chats and shit. It was, then that was the one that's the best. That's how life goes. But thank you for getting that. And I'll never wear it. I'll never wear mine. It's going to remain in that plastic bag forever. Never the correct size.

Bitter egotness. Yeah. All right. We appreciate you, Alan Smithy. Thank you for support. reporting rejectnation shop.com. Aaron Covel, thank you for chiming in. You got Hollywood Greg on the line.

The cinematographer of Mine Hunter is confirmed by Matt Reeves for the Batman Part 2 just to echo our earlier conversation about what's his name, Coy. Eric Fincher D.P. Is a genius

and should be celebrated. And that's the headline. All right? That's our big SEO headline. Eric. Meshishol Schmitt Mishersmith Messer Schmidt

He actually sounds like What's his name character We were just talking about him Django and Chained Christopher Walt's character His name sounds like Christoph Walt should play him Eric Mishers Schmidt

Thank you for your work I love it And mine hunter is genius If you guys haven't seen Mine Hunter a shot Oh I think it's a great example Of the future of streaming Yep a show that goes two seasons

Set up a beautiful third act One of the most beloved Netflix show still referenced in the film community today Patrick H. Willems, a YouTuber we really loved, did a whole video recently that was all inspired by Mine Hunter. But never coming back. That DP is shooting the hell out of Batman 2.

Never coming back, though. Batman 2. Didn't make enough streaming numbers. That's the secret is Batman 2 will be the secret third season. They're going to take all those minds Hunter's Season 3 ideas and just put them into Batman 2. No, no, no, no.

It's all the serial killers are in Arkham that we've already met, and Batman comes in, and it's just a Mine Hunter 3 pseudo sequel. We get the conclusion. Yeah, it's actually revealed that this was DC the whole time. Those two guys are talking to Gordon. Yeah. It's going to be great. It's going to be great.

I'm over to this conversation. Let's move on. Let's move on. Here we go. CEO Greg is done. Let's see. We got AXBXB says this. Thank you for chiving in.

Is there any. hope the merger won't go through? We just got to tell baby Trump how to handle this situation and maybe the merge won't go through and then a different company owns them. That's the best part about this guys. Whoever wins

we lose. Alien versus predator but also 2025. Let them fight. Of course there's a chance if it doesn't go through. I think it will though. I think the way they think who's in charge seems like

they don't have many qualms about monopolism or trust law. Netflix just has infinite money, and they're also not afraid to go broke for a while. That's how they thrive. Tech style. Just dump it in there. All right, Star Walker.

Thank you for chiming in with your stylized spelling. Get ready for Emily and Paris with Batman. I don't get it. All right. Emily and Paris is that show with... Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, there you go.

It's Emily and Paris. It's in Ryan. It's a Netflix's niece or whatever. Lily Collins, there you go. That's Phil Collins' niece? Yeah. Or something, Phil Collins' relation. That makes so much sense.

Phil Collins, the composer or Tarzan? Yeah. Yeah. He was singing to her the whole time. That was who it was. Emily and Perry, but it's going to be, I don't know what rhymes with Gotham. It would be pretty cool to get like Batman

and some of this other shit. Batman just goes in every property. Sorry, it's... You might as well, dude. Batman v. Vecna. Just take him out. It's fighting Vecna. poison ivy helps how cool that be

you combine the stranger things cast with the welcome to dairy cast boom they have to go after penny wise the loser kids they go yeah penny wise versus vekna writes itself the old guard teams up the justice league you and that fucking old guard

Jesus Christ you know if any one character could make this work it would be Batman because Batman is the one character where you would every viewer would have cause to go, well, he's Batman, and he probably would have a way of, like, piercing through the universal barrier and going to all the other Netflix shit, like so.

Yeah. I don't... He would be that smart. I don't not mention Batman Scooby-Doo every time I see James God. I am trying. I'm trying so hard. Oh, you work at DC. Get ready for more. Restore the Snyderverse, baby. Oh, yeah, that's why they did this. Yeah. So that they could put the Snyder's back. That's why they spent $82 billion.

Netflix, with their golden boy, Zach Snyder, who has made them so much with those rebel mood movies, is going to be The Dead and Army of the Dead. That whole franchise that is still going today. Hey. Justice League Cidercut reaction drops this week. I liked Army of the Dead and John and I were one of the few who liked Rebel Moon part two.

It was better than part one and that is not a popular opinion. Someone in the chat said, welcome to Dairy Girls and I respect that. Dairy Girls shout out in the chat. Welcome to Dairy Girls. Nicely done. Best joke of the merger. Let's go Dairy Girls. Who's next on here?

No, watch an episode of Dairy Girls. All right, who's next after Starwarker? I'll tell you a snack before a very important movie reaction. We got Silhouetted Animator. Thank you for chiming back in since we are late in the saga. I think Dr. Doom's story has to be tied to Kang somehow. Either Doom is another backup plan of He Who Remains or the F4 universe is the Victor timely timeline years later.

I can see the latter, especially with how much they made the importance of that being its own universe. They could, I think it'd be fun to play with that universe a bit. Obviously, they did it so they could make FF their own thing, but I could see them playing around that universe. Yeah, yeah, it's all great. I think they should just bring back Jonathan Major.

You know, a lot of things could have been better if they just recast came. It's crazy the amount of hoops that have been jumped through since the cat and stuff. Like, the entire universe had to shift. Could have just recast him. And especially because he's a time, like he, it's,

narratively possible. Yeah, I don't get it. There's so many post-credit scenes they've ignored if they ignored that one post-credit scene. That's the reason, and it's just omittable. I don't understand. Here we are. Here we are. And speaking of here

is also, ARC... But I appreciate the super chat, though. Thank you. Archie. Ark, thank you for chiming back in. Did you all see the Fortnite Zero Hour? No, I thank you for the super chat, but I legit don't know a fortnight is. I don't know what those words mean in that old. I have never seen a four. Is Zero Hour the Tarantino thing? Oh. Because we talked

about that two weeks ago. Oh yeah. Is that zero hour? No, no, no. Isn't that like the one with the sister? Zero hour. Oh my. It happened on November 29th. Wow, well, we didn't watch it. No. Damn, I think we're missing out in the gold mine here. We got to get into the

Fortnite business. We're just old. I think it feels like to get old. There's big events. I'm like, I don't know what those words mean. See, when you're in L.A., everyone's like, you've got to get there's always a new thing that pops up. They're always like, you've got to get on this, you've got to get on this, you've got to get on this. And then after a while, you're like, I'm just going to stick to like a couple

things I'm interested. Yeah, I can't. There's too much. I don't want it. I'm not, I'm not ambitious enough to. I'm not hip. I'm not with it. Keep getting on a new fucking platform and growing. Here's why people wanted this is because you've got the Simpsons, you've got Godzilla and Kong. You've got the K-pop demon hunters. You got Marvel characters. You got

invincible squid game. Scoob! Hey! Scooby Stew and Velma, Beezs and Butthead, the Turtles. Back to the future characters. We got so many IPs in here. We should have. I love the brilliance of it. We should have. No, we didn't. It is brilliant. I'm sorry we didn't watch it though. But thank you. You're not sorry at all. All right, moving along. Sorry, Ark. Ryan Platts. Thank you for chiming in. They're going to combine all the streaming services and introduce Gen Z to a new streaming service called

Cable. They've been waiting for it for years now. It is becoming no different. It is already cable. Much more expensive. And it's fleeting. We literally just a snake at its own tail. We literally have commercials and everything. The same as like cabs and taxis into

Uber and Lyft. Like it's once you get rid of the subsidies from tech because they want infinite growth and it just becomes the thing they disrupted. Yeah. Well, I'm excited for it. I didn't. The thing is I don't have much of Kwong because I didn't have cable growing up. So this is my,

I get to fulfill my, it's your first time over fantasy. Yeah. Switch channels, I forget I have. Well, this is what it was like for my parents that I talked about,

yeah. Oh, you had the Monster Channel growing up, I was so jealous. I had cable for one month and Monster Channel was a preview month for it.

That was cool. Oh, yeah. All right. That was cool, man. Thank you, Ryan. Get ready for your new cable package. We got the Olivia comment. Look at your phone,

you deadbeat husband. Yeah, we're there. Money goes right back in my pocket. Silhouetted animator is back in action. Thank you for, thank you for chiming in so much today. She just paid YouTube 40%. Yeah, thanks for giving YouTube 40%.

So you know, support the house. It's got taxed. Will we get uniform streaming service with HBO and Netflix? Also, weird timing. Arrow is going to be off Netflix this month due to the CW contract expiration. Weird. I think it will go back on.

Yeah, I think it'll be. okay you'll find your stephen amel era pretty sure we'll be back there soon what's happening right now and i i imagine they'd want to consolidate it it eventually just goes that path even disney and hulu did that now yeah i think it's inevitable i think it'll be that i'll think it'll be exactly like disney and hulu where you can have both or you can just access everything from disney plus right yeah what do you think they'll call it netflix max well max is gone oh what that was The key intriguing part of that name. Yeah, not the HBO part.

HBO flicks. What would you call it? Netbo. I think they're going to drop the HBO. Which is crazy. It's like one of the most prestigious in TV history. They could still have it like. But they dropped it once for Max.

Or they could call it an HBO production. Like 20th century studios does. Yeah. How there's that banner. Or like Sony pictures animation work corporate. Right. So maybe Netflix and then you get the static. Yeah.

It's going to be interesting. Oh, yeah. Okay, let's move on. Thank you. Thank you, Jesus. That sucks. Sorry about Arrow, man. I've seen all the Arrow on Netflix.

I love that show. It's all good. It's coming back. Stephen Imel's a God. Kong of Beast. Thank you for chiming in. I truly hate monopoly companies. But hey, this is America and capitalism.

There we go. Am I right? Anyhusel. Will you guys react to or deep dive the Andy Circus Caesar ape movies. That'd be so dope. Be cool to actually do that in lead up to

the next Planet of the Apes movies. I really appreciate that. I haven't seen those movies since I've called them the first time. Yeah, I've not seen the Matt Reeves one since theaters and I've never seen most of the Charlton Heston ones, like the 70s ones. Yeah, I remember loving Donna the Planet of the Apes. I thought that trilogy is one of the

great trilogies, but I remember thinking it was dense enough that I don't remember enough to know if I still have that feeling. Have you seen The Planet of the Apes movies? Like the Charlton Heston ones. I saw the first one as a kid, and then I saw the Mark Wahlberg one. I love Mark Wahlberg.

Yeah, that one's great. The ones after's four of them. Gary Oldman, Paul Giammati. No, I've never seen the escape from and all the other ones. Escape from is my second favorite. So, yeah, I don't remember the first one except for the end, and then I remember that Tim Burton stole Kevin Smith's ending for the remake. And then I loved the trilogy with Matt Rie,

but I haven't seen them since theaters. So there's like 12 of them. There's also a plan on the TV show, live action. Is he good? I've never seen it. Okay. It's kind of crazy how big that world is. And they're consistent.

Like, I think of the movies. I like love them when they come out. Like I always get excited and then I just don't rewatch. I mean, the original franchise is not consistent as you think. Well, yeah, I haven't seen like the fifth one. But the new ones are all great. Yeah, the new ones are excellent. I don't think Kingdom was as good as the Matt Reeves movies.

but maybe on par with rise maybe not sure just Caesar's a really hard character I mean Andy Circus is such a genius he is he I think just why isn't James Cameron

put him in one of those fucking movies it's insane how you've got the guy and the guy that directs them and nope I wonder if there's beef of like you stole my mocap prestige do they keep his eyes because that was the thing when we first when I was thinking about Avatar

of why I have a hard time getting on board sometimes with it is when they call this the digital makeup they call it yeah it dawned on me when i was watching fire and ash of i'm like yeah i know they're acting they're really acting but why why does it still like not feel there's no human soul window of the eyeballs that they change their eyes yeah even though i know they're riffing off the actor's eyes when you when you paint over their eyes the eyes are the soul yeah and i don't connect to the avatar movies but i connect to the apes well with andy circus i remember everyone being surprised by holy shit

Gollum looks like Andy Sergirscher. Right, right. And if you meet Andy Sergis, you're like, okay. And I think it's because they kept his eyes.

Yeah. And they just slightly accentuated it. Yeah. I didn't say, did you have this problem with Elita? Because I think they just

took her eyes and make them much bigger. I didn't have that problem of the leader. Yeah. And I think that's a good point. Yeah.

Probably why. But they like, you know, when you look at Kate Winslet and avatars like her eyes are here. Yeah, it's like

I'm not going to really different shapes and stuff, yeah. So, and that's the thing that I think detracts. Though they kind of keep Jake Sully, he looks a little bit like that's a way more like, yeah. And that I think that helps you human connection.

I think there's an uncanny valley element to Avatar. Yeah. Anyway, let's move on. Thank you. All right, Uncanatar. Jamco, thanks for chiming back in, Yomco, however you say that. If the OG Avengers bring their kids

into Doomsday or Secret Wars, Daredevil or Sex Work, we could get young Avengers stepping in while doom wrecks their dads, them teaming up to kick his ass. Who's your favorite young Avenger? And why is it Squirrel Girl?

You know what's crazy? Is I feel like because of Marvel slowing down and the year they had with Thunderbolts and Fantastic Four not doing the numbers they should have. It feels weird to have like Avengers questions and there's an Avengers movie next year. I know and it's but it's also showing the excitement that

people still have. We have not talked about Avengers at all and then there's so many in the super test. Yeah, it just hit me. Like, this is like the fourth or fifth, and I'm like, oh, yeah, it's Avengers next year. Yeah, so I'm a favorite young,

I mean, in the roster right now, who's there, I would say it's, it's Miss Marvel. Miss Marvel or Kate Bishop for me. I would, I would still opt for Miss Marvel as my favorite of them all. Yeah, Mandelani seems so perfectly cast and such a nerd and like really gets it

and then the character suits that. My, meaning her was one of like the cool, I've seen Simu Liu at so many events. Yeah. He was doing at the Netflix event. He's like walking right fast. I've never said hi to him, but, but Amman Valani. Yeah, I'm saying hi to her.

It was such an honor. She is so fucking cool. Yeah. Yeah. I think she's great. And she wrote a great Miss Marvel comic. Like, I love how much she gets the character. Yeah.

Big fan. Yeah. Heck yeah. All right, shouts out to Ms. Marvel. Kenya King. Thanks for chiming in. What does this Netflix deal mean for 50s? physical media.

Truly, we're going to get more. Truly, no ownership of anything as a customer. I'm also scared movies will have that Netflix look. Look, guys, you don't want to own so many discs, all right? Shit piles up, it gets in the way. You don't want to pop that bad boy in. What you want to do is be able to scroll through like a little remote control. It's all accessible, all in one place.

This, easy to break. Waste of money. is what it is. Clocks of space. You can leave more room for, I don't know, a space to hold your controllers now. Netflix, 26. You heard it here, folks.

I don't know how you had the perfect music ready, but that was immaculate work producing. Nicely done. I'm working hard back here. All right, chima, moving along. Thank you, Kenya. I took my contacts out there and making me more tired because I didn't sleep and my eyes were dry.

Clayton Clayton Crook Good to see you I'm still trying to read on us It's not gonna happen Get a little closer to the screen It's just so far away

Since Stranger Things is ending Thank you for chiming The kids are playing Since Stranger Things is ending Pick one character That is 100% safe And not going to die And one character

That is going to kick the bucket Oh okay One character is for sure not going to die is is dustin because there was a thing on the hot ones with fin wolf hard where i won't say what he said but i was like well dude that's did he spoil it kind of because the question was like and then greg just told me and the internet well the question was do you if you eat the hot okay the question is is one of those i figure what that show is called it's the different it's a different hot ones one where if he

he can answer the question or eat the hot wing and he avoided the question and the question was tell us who dies in stranger things so he didn't want to tell you so he just ate the question

then he made a joke and he's like oh and Dustin dies by the way and everyone laughed I'm like well now you just told us Dustin lives he doesn't die yeah or was it a double blind double blind oh my god

he said it right to us and he actually just like Mark Ruffalo he told us all the Ventress died who do you think we'll live coy I mean die who do you think we'll die you said Steve I think Steve because he's so

liked Yeah Steve Who do you think Go one Um Murray They're gonna kill Murray

Oh Bechna and Joyce I think Joyce is going to get crucified Actually Literally crucified It's gonna be fucking

Who do you think has to live That's what that two-hour movie is Just heard it's the passion of Joyce Oh Mel gets to make his movie For Netflix The Passion of the Joyce who do you think this is your will

even up there she does that head thing and the cross is wrapped in Christmas lights they should hit the Christmas episode the end of the Christmas episode all right that's my guess

we're moving along here all right thank you Clayton I think we'll save leave us your suck if they killed off After all that character has been through. But yes, leave us here. Definitely living and definitely dying is in the chat.

Fred Skull, thank you for chiming in. Love that name. Netflix. Netflix isn't going to ruin anything. Streamers don't take ruin-worthy swings. It'll be more mediocrity with occasional autour affair. Not worth it. Yeah, but it's all going to just get buried.

That's the thing. Like, how fucking beloved was Frankenstein? And how quickly did we stop talking about Frankenstein? That's everything, though, now. I mean, it's so rare that a movie passes the two-week mark. But what is one of the biggest contributors to that is streaming? But I'm saying, like, we are, it's all one jettisoning path. And there are certain things that speed it up and slow it down.

Like, things like one battle and after, slow it down a little bit. Things like, you know, these mergers speed it up. But it's all happening. Like, there is no pop culture conversation because you can always find every movie. There aren't like reruns on Saturday. Like when we were kids watching a movie on a Saturday that was replaying was a big deal. We all did it. And then Monday at school, we all talked about it. Now that we have access to everything and we own nothing, nothing is a pop culture moment because everything is trying to be. Yeah. Like it's all over. That's why strange, like the day

Stranger Things became what it was. Everything changed. Yeah. So we're like, what? We don't have to just play other movies. We can play new. We can make new things. People are going to talk about it. every day. Yeah. But then you binge it and it's over. Like, I'm not thinking about strange of things at all and that was two weeks ago.

Oh, I am. Really? I mean, I really like that show. It's kind of a huge show. It's a phenomenon. It's an event television show. It's a hit for me. Co. I told you that beforehand

I don't feel like it's as strong as, I mean, I've been very honest in my reviews. I don't feel like it's as strong as, I think it's closer to the, I think it's second and bottom. I think my least favorite character is now supposed to be the one I care the most about.

That's going to be a hell of a hat trick if they pull it off. Derek Turnbow Derek Turnbow No I I've always thought Will was The most Like Gay

Obviously No They write him in a way That feels like the thinnest Like they are like Oh every stereotype Like he's like cliche the character And now they're like

But now he's Phoenix boy And I was so happy for him in that moment Gay Phoenix Gay Phoenix When that moment happened I was like Am I done Like, I'm less excited for Christmas now.

Yeah, I think they've made it. It's the final season syndrome. It's just like all plot. Yeah. And the character motivation was, it hasn't been as strong. Like, every episode has been like, I like this part,

but then there's something, I was very honest about it. And fourth episode, I did actually like the fourth episode a lot. But the, I do think it's still shaping it up to not be one other strongest ones. Well, it's tricky because there's that thing

where the Easter eggs, not Easter eggs, there's the seeds that are planted that have to pay off. Yeah. But it feels. like that's the obvious one and I don't think there's gonna be like a surprise. Like it's like well

yeah Will has to become like duh but now I'm like oh that was supposed to be a moment and it didn't feel like a moment to you? Oh it didn't feel like a moment to me okay so that there that's what I'm worried about like the next two blocks of episodes I don't know if I'm gonna be able to invest like because it's like okay yeah

that's fair so I'm curious I mean I did a massive I did a whole rewatch so I'm like in it and I'm like noticing every reference because here's here's how it's sum up season five. Stranger Things 1 through 4 was referencing other movies and shows. Stranger Things

5 is referencing Stranger Things. Yeah. And that's where the limitation is coming. But it's fun for you to have the war. But it's fun for me because I notice every detail and every line or like every mirror, you know, and I'm pretty good at catching it. Right. I mean, that's what we do. And yeah, it's like, oh, this is

like the closest I'll get to be in like an Eric Voss in a situation. So I'm enjoying it for a lot for that. But do you feel like the conversation is as big? Like, I feel like it was... No, no, the conversation is very divisive right now. But also, like, it just... Oh, yeah, that peak in the...

But that's what I mean. Like, if this was a weekly show... Yeah. Like, I just don't... I don't feel like when you binge something, it lasts. Yeah. Well, so people forget that, like, they kicked Beckna's ass a few times last season.

Right. Quite a few. It just keeps coming back. But he's not an ozempic now. He's stronger. Yeah. I saw the greatest, I saw the greatest meme, like, effect...

Because I'm on a lot of, like, disrespect. But, like, the meme was... of him in season five, says, if Vecna can do it, you can do. He definitely looks like he's cutting. Like, when he showed up, I was like, so what's the regimen? How are your macros?

Yeah. I really love. And yeah, I think the Great nutrients. The part that I really think they've been dropping is 11. That's the weakest part. Yeah. And like her whole montage, I was like, she's our like big character for everything. She's like not really a character now. Yeah. And they did

not hide the stunt woman versus. It's the only time I've been aware I'm watching Millie, Bobby, Brown act. Yeah. The only time. And it's the first time I don't feel like I'm watching 11. They're also regressing her at weird moments. Like sometimes she'll talk like season 1.11.

I'm like, what? You've had three years of growth. Yeah. Season three, you sounded like a kid. Yeah. Like, why are you still doing? Like what's happening? So yeah, those little imperfections are definitely affecting my experience.

I like it. I just want to love it. Yeah. I fluctuate. What sucks? Just a quick shout out to Bucky Barnes, who is currently on a ladder hanging Christmas lights while moderating. this podcast.

You love to hear it. Respect. Stay safe out there. Yeah. It feels like a National Lampoon's Christmas moment. Be careful. He literally said, Better not pull a Clark Griswold.

All right. Next up, thank you Fred Skull. We got Dashun Cheney. What killed the dinosaurs? The Ice Age. Love it. Thank you.

Got a little love for Arnold right there. I'll use that opportunity to shout out high top films he did a video essay about Batman and Robin and he actually made a lot of great points about how back then they were like taking big swings with production design and even though that movie is like campy and all this shit the the art artistry detail and effort put in you just don't really see that in comic book movies anymore like you you would be important that when we were watching it just like the way they they crafted all this the costumes and the sets and the Greek If you see anything from that movie, you know what it's from.

And it feels so like a world. And as cheesy as Batman and Robin is, you don't ever go like, that CGI is awful. Right. It's like, they actually are like, oh, that's true. Like every single part of that movie is built by hand. Yeah. Even Arnold's suit, you know, and it is pretty nuts. Gothen is so crazy looking.

I love how Gotham feels. Yeah. I feel like the gritty realism movement is kind of wrecked a certain facet of production design. And I think getting back to like comic he's. stuff like Superman will bring that back in. And I think there's a cool opportunity to make a Batman that feels big and then a gritty one. Well, I was watching Wizard of Oz. And I haven't seen it since I was a child.

I was like blown away by how beautiful that film was. Yeah. Because everything is built. And technicolor and vibrant. And so it has to be built. And that's the thing is even though you have movies like Superman that are going back to more colorful, I still think the missing ingredient and the shit needs to be built again.

Yeah, yeah, I think physical productions. Like going on a set acts, you act different and it looks different. Yeah, and I think that it helps deal with a lot of this lack of dynamic range in the way shit's lit now. Yeah, the weird depth of field we see. The video that dude made, it's amazing,

but I haven't watched all the about how films don't look like films anymore. And I think the sets are a huge part of that. Well, it assists everything and people forget that, like, yeah, sometimes it's easier, more cost-efficient to CG stuff up, but the movie magic

is knowing that this was hard to do and that people had to build it and that actors were at least simulated given a simulated circumstance rather than, it's impressive when people imagine shit up in a volume, but watching that avatar documentary was sort of a fascinating eye-opener because you're like, yeah, even if this is all CGI,

it's like they made as much in-camera as they could and then C-Ged it. I don't feel like we do that. I don't see myself in 40 years from now watching Avatar being like, look how amazing this looks. I think it's already I watch those movies

and I'm like there's so many scenes like this doesn't look real this looks fake and it's the cutting edge of now yeah there are times it's mind blowing but there's other but like Wizard of Oz

and watching how like man it still looks fucking great T2 T2 so it looks fucking great James Cameron then I was like oh my God but it's got a built in it lives it

and the only times it looks a little off some of the computer generator and avatars all that I don't think in 40 years is going to be like well look how beautiful this look yeah you know it's gonna be like tron one it's gonna suck yeah we're fucking boring

it's gonna be overrated tron catching strays Jared letto's crying right now oh tron aries is the best one obviously especially the plot John erie you heard it here Jared letto is so sexy is this passion man's the past so sexy if I was a 17 year old oh on that no it's Sebastian eunce thanks for chiving back in oh well we can't we can still watch his movies though but we can't a joke about I'm in trouble yeah yeah you're canceled you're canceled not not him no he's not the problem you acknowledging his problem is your oh my bad yeah come on off to the island you're slandering me by by depicting these things I said and did all right Sebastian yunz coy what would it

take to get you on a lifeboat and how's the scalp life but like a I'm confused is a life but like a tech thing. I think we had a Titanic metaphor going earlier. Oh, thank you. I was like is this a reference? Um, the scalp's doing good. I'm in the ugly duckling phase, which is, uh, from like month one and a half to like four your native hairs, uh,

are, are falling out some because all the transplanted hair falls out completely. So I have the thinnest hair I'll have right now until like four months from now. Uh, and then it'll grow back in and then I'll have the new hair and the old hair. Uh, so yeah, uh, scalps good. But, uh, I'm in I'm in the thin era, and then it'll be back in the summer.

But a lifeboat, I, I'd like to be in the lifeboat. I'd like to believe again. I think one day I'll be optimistic again. It's just not today. I think sitting like this is going to give us a my left foot problem. The fucking smile is going to be messed up. Yeah, they're not, I mean, they look great. They're not the confused chairs.

Yeah. Alex, what are you doing? Buy 10 new chairs. No, no. Next episode. They're worse. All right. On that note,

I mean, they're more comfortable than the chairs we have in the offices. Don't worry. We'll get you shack chairs. We'll stand. Geek factor. It's okay.

I think we better. Actually, yeah. I think it's fun. I don't think audience is like that. No, it makes people feel anxious. Remember movie fights did that. People fucking hate it. Yeah, they're like standing.

But I felt way better. But yeah. Good energy, too. More mobile than you. Yeah. I think I think better. Yeah, me too. I like standing.

Stand for three hours. Don't like it. Yeah. I also burn. more calories as I prefer. I also want a loose mic to walk around. Yeah, same. That makes you want to go on.

Just me on loan. Talking to a crowd. Like every panel, every Comic Con. Greg just takes the mic and leaves. I've collected so much gear. Away he goes. All right. Geek Factor.

Thank you for chiming in. Hello, 10 p.m. in Poland. Can you do an episode so it's a pain for the Americanos, but good for me? Just wanted to send some love. That'd be fun. Yeah. I wish you go live at 11 p.m. figure out what,

What's noon in Poland, and then we'll go live then. Seven viewers are ecstatic about it. I appreciate you being here, though. Yeah, that is dedication. We appreciate that. That's really kind of you. Thank you, though. I really do appreciate that.

We're here to tuck you into bed. Coy's not great. Friday night, but I'm grateful. No, no, no. Randy Francois, thank you for chiming in. Hi, 2025 has been very tough for me. So thank you to all the real rejects for the laughs this year. I wish y'all lots of success and blessings.

The community is great. Cheers to the off-camera staff, too. Thank you for, yes, the off-camera staff has been very, very, very incredible. Hell, yeah, Alex. Yeah, the editors. Jesus, you selfish, narcissists. Just, Alex, she's like, by the way,

it's off-camera person. So, uh, did you guys, by the way? Did you guys hear her? Yeah, she's like, oh. Any other off-camera people? Is that directed only at me? Because frankly, I'd like to know if there's anyone else to have to share this honor with and

yeah am I free to take the whole honor or do I have to share no one designs the shirts or draws them or edits these videos or doesn't he uploaded

eric at nerd chronic meanwhile Bucky Barnes is like the fuck I'm on a ladder right now trying to moderate he's been to the store he's been to the store

he's been to McDonald's off camera he's in a McDonald's off camera Alex is very upset you exist Bucky Barnes all right well

Battle Roy And thank you, and I hope 2026 is better for you. Yeah, absolutely. Listen, I need to grab a little snack because I have to film in 25 minutes. Bye, I'll take the next one. How many more we go? Lobstar, I'll give you a count after I read from Lobstar. Thank you for chiming in, Lobb.

I'm just glad Paramount with their terrible CEO and the Saudi Kingdom didn't get Warner Brothers. You know, the business side of this here show business sure is tricky as soon as you go anywhere near the top of any money. uh so i certainly don't like knowing um the business side as much as we seemingly have to when i was a kid i don't know if it was naivete or if the public was just that much less exposed but i certainly didn't enjoy the uh journey to this cell and then finding the animosity and all these different things i keep standing by my hope that everything works out to the place that artists can make

more art because of a financial backing i will stay concerned at the money being uh at the cost of creative freedom but we have no idea what it's going to be yet uh but i certainly didn't enjoy the people that were rooting for certain companies to win for the wrong reasons political answer all right killing it coy that was excellent host work it's like i ran for president and i didn't enjoy a moment of it that's why i can't do politics i like people too much and i hate double talk it's all good it's all good you're better than you think all right Travis Nickerson

is up next thank you for shining in Travis chiming in Travis great time to leave Greg I was all of myself talking about Paramount fucking flailing in the dark oh yeah it's beautiful though look at that majestic meal I just gotta mix my protein powder to the yogurt

Greg just came in here with a fucking cup of crispy now guys I want to be this is a serious moment this is organic brown rice cereal getting to the shape that Greg I like to be at is this level of dedication. So when I say that there are extremes on both

ends of the political spectrum, there are also both extremes on the body fat perspective. Because this is a stressful way to live but feels fucking great. I should have got a bigger bowl. We're going to need a bigger bowl. I can't mix this.

It's too late. You've gone too far, Alex. Just fucking cocaine splash. Eat raw powder. guys. There's a little bit to old Hollywood all over the desk. Get ready for a cinnamon challenge

reduct. Oh, look at that. The studio episode. What's the next question, guys? All right. Next question coming right up. We have Travis Nickerson.

Hey, buddy. Thank you so much for chiming in. I think Red Claw from the animated series abducted Alfred Pennyworth and a British secret agent to force the release of a nuclear missile code leading to a confrontation

with Batman and Robin. Wait, what is this bitch? I don't understand what the fucking I just heard. Is this for like the Batman 2? And I'm like, what? Is this a Batman 2 or Brave and the Bold? Nuclear missile code.

Is this a new DC? I don't know Redclaw. Redclaw from the animated series. I need help there. Alex, can you put a tinge of water? Wait, no, I can do that right here. This is. This is.

Go very according to plan. Greg pulls out a gallon-sized tub to pour on his cocaine. bowl. Look at the fucking headphones. I'm sorry. So much has gone wrong. This is my home. This is amazing.

Let me zoom out of this show. Guys, we're approaching hour three and a half of the live stream and now Greg is going to attempt to make what he refers to as lunch. He is currently pouring a transparent liquid, perhaps water, perhaps ethanol alcohol into a bowl of

what appears to be protein and some sort of brown rice. It's Kite Hill yogurt. Kineau yogurt. and brown rice organic cereal. Do you remember that scene in the Matrix

where they're eating the slop and Cypher goes... It tastes like Yeah, and Cypher's like nothing's better than a steak. I don't care if I get put back in the Matrix. This holiday season, I feel like Cypher,

and I'm jealous of you being Jesse, but it is, that looks like what the fake chicken tenders are at high school when you find out that Tyson makes cancer. That's crazy.

It has all the nutrients body needs. Good fats, good carbs, good protein. Organic. Just little shards of dust flying out to show how tasty it is. No one knows what tasty be tasty. That's why everything tastes like tasty.

It's why everything tastes like chicken. You can smell the, like a sweetness, but it has no distinct smell. It's just sweet. Yeah, this is why I put on 10 pounds. This isn't worth two days of week, guys. it's like the broken frosty machine at McDonald's i really meant it i'm getting the photos and i'm lighting the load

fucking meant that shit i just wanted to prove i could do something oh what's next i love i love cutting to you both looking off frame at whatever is happening on this table it's crazy all right here's how my mind works this little bit of powder i'm missing i'm like shit how much protein is that how many grams might not account for what are my macros that's how my man was like shit am i missing like

five grams of protein. It's crazy that this is what it's like to live healthy, but Keith Richards is alive. Like I think about that all the time. Like the span, I think about how like some people can be four foot 11 and there can be like shack. And then I think of people that live like this

and die young and Keith Richards is like pickled. Because this is born out of insecurity and stress. Yeah, but it means like, he's having a good time. That man lives. Yeah. That's true.

That's crazy. But would you eat a pickled Keith Richards? Um, depends on the macros. Okay, we're moving on. I pulled up Red Claw in case you need a refresher there. I vaguely remember that character. It's been a while since the animated series, to be honest with you. Yeah, man.

Well, this is a good pitch. Yeah, man. Whatever you're pitching here sounds like a lot of fun. So I'm just going to green light your project right there. And I like the spy use of Alfred. Script on our desks collectively by Monday. All right, Dashune Cheney back in action. Ayo, no Diddy.

He's taking David's DP. Love, Boy, you cut, you cut my little. I didn't say that documentary, Fitty sent, like, what a, the pettiest king. Like, Kendrick and Drake can learn from Fitty. He has hundreds of hours of Ditty footage, got the green light for the documentary the week he was accused

and has footage from the week of his arrest talking about getting out of it. Like, what kind of spies does Fiddy have? I'm so impressed with Fitty v. Ditty. 50s. He's a genius. He's so, like, marketing. Like, one hit album, and he's a billionaire.

because he like fighting in water marketing like i know business yeah and like to be fair his debut album is one of the great debut albums especially of the 2000s and his second album with candy shop like had enough hits to ride that wave i think he's had three or four decent album since and a lot of not so decent but like his yeah that album's pretty solid uh the massacre um came out on valentine's day two years after the get richard i try an album and he had the movie that came out and that soundtrack also boosting him back in the zike case he's always good at staying in the zyghis but he mark it so well and he used all of that acumen

for justice and it's a, I can't wait to watch it. I'm so excited. Fitty ditty. I should just had a fuel bottle. I would have solved the trigger. You could have had a 50 cent vitamin water, but here we are. Here we are.

50 cent is a very entertaining cat. So funny. Tom Bullard. Thank you for chiming in. Love Greg and John's reaction to Brooklyn 99. Was curious if y'all ever finished it. Also love Last Man on Earth. Check out Greg's interview with Will Forte.

Last Man on Earth is a great fucking show. Terrific show. John, take it away. What's the answer to that, Brooklyn Nine-N-N-N-N-A. Channel brings me so much joy. Yes, we did finish Brooklyn 99. We eventually, because it was so hard, hang on me just zoom in on that, because it was so hard to keep those

unblocked on YouTube. We finished the show on Patreon. So if you are interested, you can come on over there, and yeah, you can watch Brooklyn Nine Nine along with us. But, yeah. There's still some

on YouTube, though. Yeah, they keep being lost like every other day. More time goes on. You can't fight anymore. I was just watching Greg be married. Huh? It's just such a display. It's just such a there it is.

This is what you're not to like pick up chicks, man. This is it. You just spill some protein powder on you at work on your desk. Yeah, we love to see it. They call this content. This is what Netflix's movies are going to be like now. All right.

Moving right along. Thank you, Tommy. Yes, go look for those Brooklyn 9-9 reactions. Isaac Rust. Thank you for chiming in. Do you think more TV shows should be pushed to a theatrical release? Why or why not? And how would you do it?

Oh, yeah. I love to see it like seasons. of curbing enthusiasm in the theaters just a month of 10 minutes where the kids are getting killed with the episode one of Derry on a loop for two hours That show would be great in theaters

It would be I'd watch the shit I'd welcome to Derry in theaters Yeah Everybody dogs the CGI though They would have to improve that But like pluribus Breaking Bad for sure

People dog the CGI in Derry Yeah which is surprising to me Because I haven't I mean there are times When you could tell they are using CGI But they've made some pretty icky, squirmy, disgusting stuff. But the show's kind of campy

though. Yeah. It's like a straight up B-movie sci-fi. It doesn't look out of place. It looks like it's for that show. Well, take it up with the people, but it is like a common thing I see people responding to out there. But yes, put them all in the theaters and how do

you do it? Basically, you get a copy. You coordinate with the theater to play the copy and then you sell tickets so that people can come and see the exhibition of the copy. And that's how I would do it. I would license the copy. to be shown there and then send the royalties out to whoever is involved with the movie. I think that's how I would

personally do it, but you don't have to do it like me. I mean, Quora and I have talked extensively about how that should be a thing. What Stranger Things are doing, they should definitely be doing way more of that. Disney should have put their shows out, especially if they want them tied to the movies. Yeah, it's called The Mandalorian and Grogu. Yep, it's

going to go. All right. Michelle, thank you for chiming in. Really appreciate you. Wanted to send you guys some big love and gratitude, and that is very generous of you. Thank you. And those are Canadian dollars, so they're worth more than American dollars. Or less, I'm not sure.

It's always more expensive in Canada. This channel has been such a comfort to me, especially since getting my terminal cancer diagnosis. I'm so sorry to hear that. So sorry. Thank you so much for the escapism and entertainment. Love you guys. Dude, sending out love to you too. Thank you for being here. We love you.

And, yeah, if we could bring a little bit of joy your way, I'm pleased. Did we know that? think so. I don't think we knew that. I don't think we knew that. I feel like I... I really hate me like a brick, man. Yeah. I'm so used to, but I've seen your name for years.

Yeah. What? I'm sorry. I didn't know that. You should hold on to your money. That's what matters most when you're suffering. Yeah. I mean, the fact that you're still being as kind of generous to us, you know. while you're certainly dealing with life is humbling. Appreciate it. She thanked us for escapism.

You're welcome. Yes. We don't want to bring the thank you. That's incredible. I'm so sorry. We're here to that. Yeah. We pull faces.

Walter White made meth. Yeah, do that. What are you doing, Michelle? Come on. What's your hobby outside of watching us? Yeah. How can you turn that into business? Are you paused on social media?

I want to send you a message. But yeah. Escapeism. I was like feeling our mood and then I read that word again. I was like, we're failing, Michelle! Oh, thank you so much. Send in love. Everybody in the chat, send Michelle some love right now.

Thank you. Let her know, reject nations. You didn't bring the mood down. You just made it real, Michelle. We appreciate you. Yeah. Thank you. Everyone accused her of that.

She just said it well. She just said, I'm sorry to bring the mood down. I'm not just having a mug of this. No one said that She said that She's like Yeah he wasn't you I'm so sorry

Do you guys hear her You really not Do you guys hear the voice You're not comfortable Learning stuff like this Are you going Telling me that we did it wrong You all hear Michelle

Alex The only one who works off camera You're supposed to clean Yeah we have one off camera Employee which means Janitor Which means plumber Which means

Yeah Greg Handler All right Alan Smith Hollywood lunch Thank you Michelle sending love to you Alan Smithy

back in the super chats In Tarantino's defense Okay here we go In Tarantino's defense He does give me An annual gift basket Which should be arriving later this month

All right It's for my department Not just me And it's from the new Bev Not Tarantino directly Okay I gotta figure out who you are Alan Smithy Are you out here

Andrew Gordon in Hollywood. That name, I definitely know that name. Do you not know it out. You do know that name. No, but like. It's like the art, it's the fake writer name. Oh.

It's a pseudonym. I don't want my name on this movie name. Yeah. That's it. Yeah. The nom de plume. Definitely know John Doe. I've heard that name before.

John Doe. That guy has done so much stuff. Like, every time someone gets hurt, it's this John Doe guy. It's like Florida, man. John Q. Teenager. I think I know him. He's got a 555 number. I see it all the time.

What area are all this 555s in? All right. Thank you, Alan. And, hey, you know, I hope that it's a nice gift basket and that he gives you a foot rub. Matthew Taylor. And hey, shouts out, because I was at the new bed just recently. Matthew Taylor, thank you for chiming in.

What's your thoughts on Nick Cage playing Ben Riley in his new Spider-Man-Dwar show instead of Peter Parker? Licensing issues means Peter Parker can't be on TV for some reason, so he's got to be in movies, which is why they also have an issue with Kingpin, apparently being in movies. There are different contactual licensing rights for Marvel characters who owns them, depends on the platform. So I think it's a wonderful way to use the character of Spider-Man noir as played by Nick Cage to transfer him from the incredible Spider-verse movies into TV. Let him play him in live-action. You just call him Ben Riley, which is a clone of Spider-Man.

He let the story be a little bit more freeform too because they're less licensing and contractual issues with Peter Parker than Ben Riley, so you can actually play more. So I think it's a great idea. And it sounds like a more name. I love it. Are you going to watch it in black and white or in color? You know, they have two options. I'd like to think I'm fancy, but I'm probably going to watch it in color.

I would, I absolutely will watch it in color. Yeah, like I'd like to think of myself as more highbrow than I am, but I'm probably going to watch it in color. I kind of wish they were doing like a Sin City thing where it's like some color at times.

That'd be cool. I might do a rewatch in black and white, but I definitely think color for like the all that lighting and effort that put into something. I mean, black of my lighting's hard, but I want to see like, the richness of what they built.

But if it's lit to be black and white, it won't look good in color. So you're right, it'll be lit for color, which means the black and white's going to be fine. I mean, I'll be watching it here probably. So how are we watching it?

I mean, that is an interesting conundrum because someone's stuff is post converted. So like if you're shooting for black and white, it may make the color look weird too. Right, like the ruby slippers are silver in Wizard of Oz. Like I remember like, oh, we went to go watch Logan and black and white.

I'm like, oh, cool. I'm like, yeah, it's definitely better in color. Yeah. Well, they don't let people. compose in black and white and I think that's kind of a bummer because they don't want yeah to commit to doing that and I think you rob yourself of some gorgeous cinematography when you don't yeah compose that way but I'm really excited about it I think the Ben Riley thing is a very

cheeky way to do it yeah I know you're Ben Riley lover also as a huge clone saga fan it's cool to see Ben Riley yeah right Mitch thanks Mitch for chiming in hey guys will there be any pluribus reactions no not this moment in time No, no, plura no. No, we can't even get a lot of schedules to line up right now, man. It's a little tough. They're supposed to be a third person with us today. These things are just all, all, all off.

Every week, we're supposed to have three of us for this live and just doesn't. No, I mean, for everyone, I'm going to shoot next. We need to get some more off camera and police. Craig, am I learning about this show in real time? Did we add someone to the live three? It's supposed to get a third person with us here. It's supposed to be me, you and Tara. Oh, shit.

show changes. I miss the memo. We need someone to always be like, I don't know what's happening. Wait, Netflix? Yeah. Makes movies? There's four Warner Brothers. And the Warner Sister die. No, there's not.

But I am enjoying. I haven't actually been keeping up with it because it's like I only have time to watch. I have homework TV or and like one show I could watch and like Olivia and I are really into Darius who've been like prioritizing that. I'm too behind a pluribus, too. And pluribus, I actually kind of want to just binge it, too. I'm in that mood with pluribus.

It would be cool to binge this. Pluribinge. That's how Breaking Bad succeeded. Netflix. It became a binge show. Yeah. Sorry, I got distracted. His Charlie Flix fix is examining your beard,

and apparently there's some crack powder left in it from your excursion there. Netflix has, yes, that's true. And my wife complains about that all the time. I don't eat anything is somehow there's always powder no matter what I eat you just love condensed foods it's lemonade what's yeah I'm sure that water is not supposed to be like that going out on a limb here gatorade residue what's he mean by powder all the time all right thank you Mitch let's see what we got Ray Torres thank you for chiming in just a random thought will real rejects ever become a production studio I feel like you guys would create amazing

films. Who knows? Maybe even buy out Netflix in a couple years. Having a great weekend and much love. Okay, we're going to sell ourselves to Netflix. That's why I've been so kind. $20,000. What a market. I'm ready to do it.

At moments notice. Snap your fingers. I'm there. Yeah, I mean, it would be cool to actually do some real production stuff. I need to alleviate some positions here. You know. Not fire people. I need to alleviate some roles that I have here.

It's a three-person live show. I'm not one of them. And then... I think of alleviate as a bad word, Craig. Elevate some rules I have. I'm literally... I actually contacted someone, Alex, to help us out with some stuff. I just told them, like, I'm doing way too much,

and I can't be all these positions right now. I don't appreciate my time or life because this is my favorite thing to do is film yeah yeah it's my favorite thing to do and I get bummed when they're like well you know what you should do you should actually shouldn't film then

you should do all the other people let's just like that's the exact thing I don't want to do it. I'll hire those people what do you want I've been at companies when they were corporatized and I

would prefer that not happen we are we're always there guys don't worry if you guys want less chaos. At times someone has to talk to me, they're going to have to contact Alex and then Alex will have an assistant who will inform Alex

whether or not your email is worthy of my time. All those off-camera employees. Sea Black, thank you for chiming in. Constantly hiring interns, replacing, replacing interns. Pretty soon it's all going to be interns and there will be no actual on or off-camera staff.

The interest will be reacting. Once they want money, sorry, intern. Your time's up. The interns will be programming the AI of us. Greg's going to scan all of us. Yeah, yeah. And they're going to be one's and zeros of me as an AI. I'm going to treat them like employees, though.

Portly. Hit them with a ruler. Hold their college credit over their head for every little offense. Let's move on. All right. C. Black. Thank you for trying in. Are you seeing the end game re-release on 925-26?

What? There's an end-game re-release. Apparently. No Infinity War, though. Maybe. Why are they re-release? releasing it on that day? Yeah, that day of all days? September? Well,

next year. No, no, but like, well, yeah, because it's already December. But, like, it didn't come out in September, and also that's way before Dooms. I don't understand, though, like. Yeah, I don't get it. Maybe to start drumming up hype again for an Avengers movie coming in? It's a build hype for a new Avengers movie, I guess. I don't know. To refresh

audiences' memories and build expectations for the next Avengers. I mean, I think we're planning at some point doing a rewap, so I don't think I'll want to see it back to back. I saw it so many times in the theaters. And then it reached a point where, like, no one was in the theaters. I'm like, I think I'm done watching this movie. Yeah, I think I'll watch it for whatever we do, but I probably won't go to see it in the theater again.

I've seated too many times. Yeah, I'm a little done watching it. I need, like, another year before I see it again. Like, maybe on September 25th. Yeah, 2016. All right, thank you. Oh, no. Oh, no, I lost the page.

SEO. Quick stall while I hit the back button. All right, we're good. Nick Stahl was not a good John Connor. No, unfortunately. If I was to rank my John Conner. A good yellow bastard, though. Edward Furlong would be one.

Next hole would be two. Not a good, not a good John Conn. I actually like it in the exact order they go. John, that's Christian Bale. A lot of people have really grown to like Christian Bales, and I'm still not a big fan. I just like Christian Bail. I'm not a big fan of his because John Connor.

It's just Batman. I like Batman. It's the thing about Batman. I like Batman. And no mention for Jason Clark. We try to forget that that happened. He's the worst one. Yeah.

I mean, it was almost ever, we almost didn't get Nick Stahl in the first place, but Edward Furlong lost the role. They brought him on and they were like, if you can stay sober, you can be John Connor. And he went out that night and got an OD'd, so they took him off the movie. Man, that's hard.

Yeah. I would do the same thing. You got that new money. Aaron, are you here? Who came over here? Someone was just peeking out. Who's in my house? What's happened?

It's a cheeky Michael Tesla, most likely. All right, we got a couple more here. We're almost to the end. Popcorn roulette! Thank you for chiming in. Have you seen good fortune? No, no, I want to...

I think I'm just going to watch it on my own. I would love to watch it. Have you seen it? It's fun. I really liked it. I saw it by myself in a theater. Greg just ate Tyson chicken paste that he made himself. I just had powder.

Yeah. Thanks, man. Yeah, there it is. What are the flavor options? are they chocolate strawberry vanilla or is it a blend oh okay could I get a can I get a vanilla I'm gonna just say screw my screw this chicken Tyson diet I'm gonna eat one that's how it starts coy oh I know this is you were like you lost some weight I'm like not for long thank you thank you glad to help can you just put it in

my mouth and take it out before I chew it just let the take it Craig, that's another movie. There are some people in the chat. They're going to love that you said that for a soundline. Just put that in my mouth and take it out before I chew it. Greg Byrne. Greg Byrne coming to theaters soon. All right.

Thank you, popcorn roulette. Good fortune is great. I really enjoyed it. I thought it should have done better. It's surprisingly like a three-hander. I was really impressed that three leads were able to balance the tone. And there's a really cool moral message that is from three perspectives. And all the actors that you know are in it are all amazing.

It's solid. Keanu Reeves, the scene stealer. Dude, he has a chicken nugget subplot that is so funny. Like, he is obsessed with chicken nuggets, and it foams my heart with joy every time. Like, there's the innocence of Keanu getting to play where it makes sense. Yeah. Like, that wonder that he has, but, like, to an 11, it's great. All right.

And Seth Ruggins. The Rogenesance has been delightful. I, even if we have to take some other methods to get footage for you guys, I still buy the movies. I do. Mm-hmm. We make that an active point. point here. Yep.

Every movie gets bought. All right. Even the ones we don't want to own. It's funny, because Amazon often has like the, oh, it's on discount today for five bucks. You own so many of the weirdest titles. You own Alvin the chipmucks, the chip wrecked now. I own so many movies.

Even like the new releases after we are able to watch them our own way. I'm like, ah, but we have a rule here to buy them. that's why no one gets raises buying $5 movies they're all spend on buying new releases A lot of Mel Gibson Walmart movies To buy Physical media that are all available on Netflix

Greg's watching flight plan again Not paying us That's a Jody Foster movie Melflix What's a Mark Wahlberg ball movie Something with a flight flight That's no that's Denzel Flight risk flight risk

That's right There was a plan That was a flight risk That's what it is All right Matthew Muno It is shocking How bad really it's like the trailer's awful shockingly bad oh mel it's okay we got this lovely little

giggly bashful lemon person from matthews and i'm gonna do one more round of refreshes but i think we've scaled the mountain i think we are at the summit the peak oh sweet we've done it cupcake just made me summit it's fun we always have we always have like the focused part that by the time we get to this Super chats. It's like, oh, yeah,

we have lost our minds. It's 3.30, Greg. Every fucking time. It is 3 fucking 30. We did this for a... We talked way too long about the Netflix merch. That is like a whole hour of this. Someone here has to go over...

Hey, off screen. You're supposed to just be like you've been gawking for 35 minutes. This is literally the Lord of the Rings extended cut. My job is to talk. Yeah. It's my job. We're not going to stop until someone says something.

And we own this. Hire a stopper. Yeah. Can we hire someone to stop us from talking? Is this a little blow dart? Yeah, we'll just have like a cattle prod off screen. Yeah. Occasionally.

Yeah. I like that. We've done it again. Guys, what's next? 3.30. I think we've scaled the mountain. No more stream laps? We've done, I mean, I refreshed it, but I think we got.

What the hell, guys? Demani was the last one. No, now I'm mad. Because we. Alex, throw in some streamlapse. Yeah, and leave like on the streamlapse. Open it back up. We've got another three hours. All right. So how many concurrent viewers are we at?

150. 7. All right. Let's check. $4.58. Let's check. What? I'm watching this bullshit. We're still being after three to half hours.

That's fucking awesome. And we haven't made sense for at least an hour. I mean, the last hour you guys have just been here. Yeah. I don't know what we're doing. How do they know what we're doing? Thanks. That's 500 people.

That's cool. Pure insanity. Pure insanity. I like the way you eat that cupcake. We just get more R-R-R-R-R-A. Did you get a little more cream just right here? The more cream in our mouths, the more powder in our beards, the less clothes. The more cream in your mouth.

Greg just wants you to put in his mouth and take it back out. Michelle Cherie says this has been a joyful and zany three and half hours. Everyone that's been here the whole. time. I commend you. That is a, that is a journey we've all been on. Thank you. Now I'm going to go spend five hours with Kill Bill's foot fetish. Thanks, John, for holding

this down and getting us live. Alex, you have been a great off-screen and, you know, I'm asking, we're going to have Alex redo our backgrounds in the other sets because, you know, I think display backgrounds are we're over that now.

We need more. Cut to my display background at home, judging me, Craig. Yeah. I don't see, and then it's going to have a pile of this one from us. Just in the background. Why does this set look like the real rejects been in a corner? But yours might have like dynamic. That'd be fun too, to give a way. But we have this like a flat wall.

You have like a depth. Yeah, which helps. Yeah. Ours is just flat. So I'm just like, this is kind of like flat. We can do more. But thank you guys for being here. I know something, something, something.

It was off to a weird start because I suddenly had emotions at the start at the start of it. And now I've got to go watch this movie and be sharp and sound smart for approximately one hour and 45 minutes. And then really drop the ball after that. Good plan. We'll go watch Kill Bill, the whole bloody affair. Oh, you're only got like four and a half hour. Yeah, it's going to be great. And then I'm getting on.

Oh, yeah. No, I'm going to eat bad tomorrow. This cupcake was amazing. Yeah, well, there's donuts at CityWark. Oh, yeah. Which the line is always like 45 minutes. So I won't have time in the 15-minute intermission. grab you do some laps

yeah it's gonna go and run around city walk and then fucking get back in that theater all right guys thank you so much for being here koi john alex

everyone in the chat everyone who contributed you guys rock next week's gonna be half a story and only super chat oh next week we have something

no doomsday's the next week I was gonna say trailers are soon so when doomsday is out that's two weeks? Yeah. So when Doomsday is out, that'll probably be the live stream day we do. Whatever that is. We just have to figure out when that's coming. But yeah, so I might not be on the Friday. But anyway, we're done.

Thank you for being here. I'm closing out. Alex, clean this shit, you bum. Jesus Christ. Give him all the credit. Alex, be quiet. Don't ever talk to me with your mouth open again. Did you just look Greg in the eyes while he's on camera? You know about Greg looking in the eyes. So why he wears the sunglasses?
