The Smark Avengers - Vol 3, Ep 37: The Smark Avengers Do A Fun Quiz

Episode Date: November 8, 2024

Peter Quill had a cybernetic what? What does H.A.M.M.E.R. stand for? These aren't the easy MCU questions you might be expecting! Time to put on your thinking caps, true believers! Join Corey, Dylan, and Jon as the Smark Avengers put their knowledge to the test with a Marvel Comics trivia game!

for you. Appreciate that. If only I had the same foresight to look after myself the way you look after me. For I have made a series of grievous errors that have led me to this point. Like you said, I just think you sound, you know, very manly with your voice deeper. Thank you. That says an awful lot of how you imagine I sounded before. You sounded like a little.

baby. He sounded like just the littlest boy. Well, baby, but now you sound like you're a foot taller. Still very sick. So, hi everybody. Welcome to Smart Avengers.

We're here today with Dylan and John. Dylan, Dylan, would you like to tell the audience what happened to your voice? Nothing happened to it. This is how I normally signed. Oh, my apologies.

You're perfectly all right. All right. Well, that's good. Well, hi, everybody. Like you said, we're the Smart Avengers. Welcome to the show. And John and I got to see the thumbnail that Dylan made for us.

And honest to God, it's pretty damn close to what we predicted. Oh, yeah. I was so pleasantly surprised. As soon as I asked if you wanted me to guess what the thumbnail was, that was exactly what I was going to draw. I had in my head immediately. And I didn't want to came off exactly the way I wanted to as well.

Yeah, it looks good. Well, you guys are pros, you know. Yeah. So that was our follow up to our last episode. This episode, however, we're going to do something unique that we've not done before. So we've had drafts and we've had auctions, but we've not played a proper game before. So that's going to be today's gimmick. To give you some insight into how this is going to work.

because John and Dylan are more Marvel people than like DC or other publishers, the trivia game is going to revolve around Marvel like questions. I will also tell you, though, when I was trying to find good questions, if you look up Marvel trivia, nine times out of ten, maybe nine point eight times out of ten, it's going to be MCU related. So I did my best to steer clear from MCU questions. Is that fair? I think so.

Yeah, probably. Okay. Just to the, we don't do the same trivia that everybody else does? Yes, that was my goal. Or is it because you think me and John know everything about the Marvel Cinematic University? If you did a quiz just on that, we would ace it, no problem. I will tell you the ones I've seen were really, really, really. really easy.

Yeah. And I don't know if it's just like we have a better attention to detail than some people or we just have better memories. But like some of the hard questions were like... Who plays Iron Man? Yeah. What color infinity stone is the blue one? Yeah. So these are going to be comic based.

I will tell you I try to find particularly difficult ones because I don't know how often you guys are going to nail this immediately. Dylan? Are you going to be keeping score? Yes. I'll be keeping score. No, I'm actually, I reckon we're going to do really fucking well at this.

I think John's going to do better than I am. I think John's going to get 39 questions correctly. These are multiple choice questions. And the way that I enjoy about this is I'm going to go back and forth between the two of you. Each of you will get a new question unless you'll give in the opportunity to steal the other person.

question. I will tell you that if you know the answer before you hear the options, that's going to be worth two points. If you get the question right, it's going to be one point. I guess I'll give you guys the option to, well, actually, no, I'm not going to do that because as you can hear Dylan, his voice is totally fine, but let's say if there were something wrong with it. Yeah. I feel like that should give Dylan sick boy points and Dylan gets to go first. Are you fine with that choice, John? Yeah, I'm happy with that. It's not that I like better than sympathy points.

There you go. So what we are going to do, Dylan, I'm going to ask you a question. I'll give you the opportunity to answer it without a multiple choice option. This one's going to be very difficult. So the way this will work is if you correctly guess which alias is used. So, like you said, this will be a little difficult for you. But the question is, which of these is not an alias used by Clint Barton? So if you automatically know the one he did not use, I'll give you two points.

Mr. Fistington. I think you'll find he never went by that name. So two points for me, please. All right, your options are. I don't get it. You're not going to give it a point. Nope. So your options are

A, Ronan, B, Trick Shot, C, Goliath, D. Hawkeye. I think it's Trickshot. Is that your answer? Yeah. That is correct. Trickshot was

Clint Barton's brother. You can see, though, like, without getting the multiple choice questions, that, that question is like completely impossible to answer. Yeah. But you did get to go first.

Because I would have no idea what, you know what you mean? Well, I did try to purpose it by saying if you can tell me specifically the one, you'll get points for it. How could I have? Right. What happened? My sympathy points have already disappeared. All right. I'm dying, Corey.

I'm dying. All right, John, your question, which of these characters has, or sorry, this one won't work either, so we'll go ahead and skip that two points. No, do it anyway. I had to do mine. He has to do it. Which of these characters has not held the mantle of Quasar? Okay, go ahead, John. Hawkeye.

Yeah. Trick shot. I definitely hasn't. I don't know. Hope God Blinn. No. Incorrect. So, John, your options are A, Richard Ryder, B, A, Averal Kincaid, C, Wendell, or D. Filavel.

Oh, I know that. Oh. So which one of these has not been Quasar? I know two who definitely have. Um, is it Richard Ryder? That is correct, John. Richard Ryder has never been Quasar. He is actually Nova.

Yes, I did know that. I didn't know if he'd, you know, been in part-ed with the Quasar powers at some point. Oh, yeah. What if the Hobgoblin did, though? That'd be amazing. If it was McIndale, it would make sense. Well, he's dead. Yep.

Maybe he brought him back to life. Didn't he get killed again? He got killed again in Red Goblin. Did it? What? But he's dead. Yeah, he had like a shambling, rotting corpse in Red Goblin. Oh, no, that was Phil Ulrich.

Oh, that was Phil Ulrich. Yeah, fair enough. All right, Dylan, your... I didn't like him as a Hobgoblin. Dylan. Yes. Your question is, The Venom symbiate is a member of what alien race?

Oh, the Clentar? Dylan, you get two points. Son of a bitch. What were the, what were the category? Badoon, Brood, or Shiar were the other options. Well, that, okay.

All right, John. Your question, Peter Quill once had a cybernetic what? Car. Mm. Bonebreaker for the reverse. Oh,

I should think they stopped live. Shit. Is it, it's worth taking a guess, isn't it? Yeah. Well, no. I'll still get the options. Yep, you still have the options should you choose. Cybernetic.

I'll go a cybernetic arm. Incorrect. Your options, though, to still regain one point, a hand, B, I, C, leg, D, brain. What the f... I don't remember this. You were pregnant? I guess cybernetic

I feel like it's Deadpool, right? Because that's the fourth wall bullshit. Incorrect. The correct answer was Luke Cage and Jessica Jones.

We have to finish the game before Dylan Rots. You got everything going in your favor, man. John, when it was first introduced in the comics, what did Shield stand for? Oh, fuck.

C, the Supreme Headquarters International Espionage Law Enforcement Division,

or D, the Supreme Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Division. Pretty short, C. That is correct. Do you have to come up with, like, other acronyms for these things yourself? Or did you look, was there already, like, these questions with these answers? There were some of these I had to come up with new answers because the, obvious answers were so wrong. Like the other choices aside from the correct answer

were so wrong, it'd be obvious. Okay. Just making sure, because that's a lot of work to have to... Yeah, you did a good job. Yeah, some of them were tricky. She felt very proud of yourself. Thank you. No problem.

Dylan, Adam Warlock's evil doppelganger is known as what? Oh, what the fuck is he called? Peter? Your options are A, Thanos, B, Dark Warlock, C, Anilus, D. Magus. Oh, magus. That's correct.

Not Kirby, the vacuum cleaner. Very different. John, the radioactive spider that gave Peter Parker his powers also gave powers to what other superhero? Silk. That is correct. Two points for John. That's pretty good. fair play right i'll let you know that we are at the final four questions

and our points are dylan at 33 wow john at oh john you are sitting at 40 see i told you 35 i said 39 you're like there's no way he'll get 39

yeah well that was before i realized i had to double the point for the 25 questions each of you were going to get. So. So I can't win. I? I mean, if you get, if John misses some points and you steal them or you get some right in the first question, then yes. It's possible.

Okay. Dylan. Thor's hammer meolnier is made out of what material? Chocolate. So I have to be owner and authorate it. Yeah. You're not going to give the categories? Okay.

Your categories are A, vibranium, B, Uru, C, Adamantium, D, Inth Metal. It's the last one. John, this is your opportunity to steal. It's Uru. That is correct. Yeah, that's fair enough. John needed some more points. I felt like I'd be nice to him, you know.

John, your question, Quake is the daughter of what super villain? Oh, shit. Is it Mr. Hyde? That is correct. John gets another two points. I don't think I would have got that. It's only because of my agents of shield fandom that I remembered that.

You were an agents of shield fandom? Yeah, yeah, man. I watched all of that show. you were the only one yeah that's why it got cancelled yeah the guy who made it is the glisten of the show thankfully we find somebody liked it okay dylan your question can we make this one for like 10 points i'll double the points for the final two questions are these the final two questions they are the final two questions okay So, Dylan, which of these is not a past version of King the Conqueror?

I will give you the options, but it's worth five points. A, Ramatut, B, the Iron Lad, C, the Supreme Intelligence, D, Amortes. Supreme Intelligence. That is correct. And, John, it's only fair that your last question also be worth five points. I don't think that is fair, frankly. I don't want to be a stickler for the rules, but... I mean, he does get sick boy points.

Yeah, and I haven't, which I haven't received yet. You know, I think I should... We haven't determined how many sick boy points I get. That's true. So, John, your final question worth five points. Which rapper teamed up with the Punisher? Oh, what the fuck? Hang on, you gave Dylan his four options.

I should get my four options as well. Okay, I just wanted to see if he knew. You weren't even going to have a stab in the dark. Hell no. Is that because you don't know any rappers? Exactly, yeah. Your options are A, jaw rule, B, ludicrous, C, 50 cents.

D. M&M. What? Surely I should remember this if it happened. It most assuredly happened. Definitely happened. I worked at a bookstore that was selling that comic at the time. Corey met the rapper. You're really in the Punisher?

And he's like, you fucking bet your ass I was. They showed me his tattoo of the Punisher. Not like the logo, but just a like a Frank Castle tattoo. It just looks like there's a white guy on him. Yeah, you're like, dude, this is, I didn't, I didn't want to see your tattoos, man. This is, we even tell you where he has it tattooed. Wait, I know where it is. I don't know who the rapper is, but I know where the tattoo is.

On his face. So, hang on, what were the four options again? It was Jerole. Ludacris. 50 cent or Eminem. I go 50 cent. Dylan's your opportunity to steal for five points. How?

I would have said. 50 set. I guess I'm going to go with Eminem. That is correct. No. Yeah, there is a Punisher Eminem comic. It was a mini-series. But they didn't make a full series out of it? No, unfortunately not.

You could have made so much mileage out of the Punisher and Ammanam just shooting up people for no reason. Why? Why would Aminam be like, I'm going to take time out of my busy rock. career to just shoot up a bunch of guys with the Punisher go murder some people yeah that's got fucking nothing to do with what I normally do so my regular day-to-day yeah I'm just going to hang out with this fucking absolute mass murderer who kills terrorists because I got a spare couple of hours you know do you know what the answer is like why what was impetus for this happening because this is I think so I think somebody I think somebody tried was trying to kill

Eminem okay I'll actually look it up real fast we'll just delay the final score yeah we need to we need to this book came out in 2009 okay

let me see if I can find a synopsis of this book what was it called it's Punisher and Eminem yeah it was just Punisher slash Eminem best best friends yeah best buds

all right hang in I the story the story inside of the title was called kill you well I mean that's kind of what we expected

right it wasn't going to be like you know two guys spent scrabble Eminem well actually no it was not a mini series this was supposed to the original cover of the book said this was going to be

a two issue limited series it was only a one shot So did they just Did they not make the second issue or did they just In the midst? I think they may have like realized I think the cover was done first and they realized we'll just wrap this up in one And they were like we can't take the words off the cover

They already made the cover We can't put a sticker over it You know It's got a Nope nobody will know No one's gonna buy it So I have the synopsis in front of me If you want to know what happens in this

Well, he said, we'll cut this probably out. No. People need to hear it. This is the most important question. There's a very big dramatic ending to this. Okay. So Eminem is performing at a concert, and once the show is concluded, he leaves in a limo. They are stopped by the Punisher, who is standing right where they need to go.

Eminem and his crew get out angrily to move him out of the way, but Punisher merely opens fire on them, killing many of them. killing many of them. Eminem runs, firing behind him as he does, but is pulled into a building by Barracuda. Believing Barracuda to have saved him, Eminem goes with him to a house and wait to ambush the Punisher. Eminem gets the drop-on castle and smacks him in the face with the butt of his gun, knocking him out. However, he quickly found out Punisher wasn't after him at all, and that Barracuda was not trying to save him, as Barakuta shoots him in a non-vital organ and causes him to become knocked out. Eminem wakes up Yep

So he got shot in an organ that was not considered Vital which I would assume would be the appendix at this point And that knocked him out? Apparently knocked him out Well you know if you get hit in the stomach with a microphone It just you know Lays you out Is that science?

I believe it is. It's physiology. Fair enough So Eminem wakes up on a boat chain to Punisher outside Detroit and Punisher starts to argue with him about their situation. Barakuta arrives to kill them and throws Eminem off the boat and into frozen water,

but it does not break. Mercuda looks for his sniper rifle and then Punisher attacks him. Eminem runs out onto the frozen lake, somehow escaping from his chains and finds an ice fisher. The ice fisher is a huge fan and says he'll do anything for him. Eminem asks to borrow

his chainsaw for cutting ice for the moment. He runs back to the boat and sees Punisher getting beat up badly. He grabs Barakuta's attention, then chops him with a chainsaw. Savoring the moment for a minute, Eminem realizes Punisher has a gun to his head. Punisher tells him he's going to the parents' music counsel for contracting a killer. And Eminem floats off into the sunset and says, do me a favor and tell him shady sent you. Floats off into the sunset.

I guess he's still on the boat. Oh, I don't even mean he like ascended the habit. Yeah, he ascended. Okay. I mean, it sounds like they wrapped up everything in one one issue. They didn't even need a sack of one, you know. Unless the second issue was going to be, yeah. Maybe the second issue was going to be Punisher versus Tipper Gore.

No, Punisher teams up with Tipper Gore. There you go. Yeah. We should write this. Yep, it's going to, we'll have baby Juggernaut and Arlis Tiger Man in there too. Oh, and Gun Bunny. Yeah. Get in touch with Marvel again. I feel like they're not taking us seriously. They're not replying to any of our calls.

And I've tried. I've tried calling them. And it hurts my feelings that they aren't replying to me. All I want to do is entertain, you know. Well, are you guys wanting to know the final scores? I mean, I guess. Mm-hmm. Well, John, you have 38 points.

And Dylan, you have 38 points. It is a draw. That's still in that five point answer. Did you a lot of favors. That's pretty funny. It's not funny at all. I don't know why you wouldn't find it funny, John. I find it very funny.

We're going to have a tiebreaker, though. Okay. But do we have to buzz in, or do you go to each of us? We'll do a buzz in method. How do we buzz in? Just, yep, just that. Do I have to make a buzzer noise? I don't know if you have the manly husky voice.

Yeah. One of my buzzer noise is just me cough in my lungs up. That'll work. Cool, because I'm ready to go. Okay. What does the vision in the human torch have in common? John. They both have the same Android body.

That is correct. John, you snuck it out in the end with 39 points. So well done. Dylan, it was a very valiant effort. That's what he said he would get. You did. Wow. So I should get an extra point for that.

Dylan, you get an extra point for back at a tie. Oh, God. Let's do it again. Let's run it one more time. Congratulations, John. That was a well-deserved victory. It was. Thank you.

Wow. All right, fellas. We're going to wrap that up at the end. This was our game show and our book review on Punisher and M&M. This, I really like this. This was really good. Yeah. I like a competitive John ended up getting it.

John, well, I mean, I had a feeling that was going to happen considering how competitive John gets in the auctions. Yeah. I don't like losing. None of these questions were about the hobgoblin. No, they were. I know. What the hell? Well, I was specifically trying to find hard stuff.

You notice there was a lot of cosmic Marvel questions on there. Yeah, I don't know a whole lot of that stuff. Whereas if it was about the hobgoblin, as we've already, we did a whole episode of bite the hobgoblin. We probably know some stuff about the hobgoblin. Mm-hmm. You know, it feels like it's safe to say. Yeah, let's, that's, let's make me. I mean, I came away learning.

Yeah, exactly. We were teaching you. Yeah. Like, I know for a fact the best hobgoblin is Ned Leeds. You don't know that for a fact. God, geez. I don't think you know that for a fact. Isn't that the name of that one kid from the Spider-Man movies in the MCU?

Yeah. Yes. That's weird. Well, anyway, John, how many movies have you watched so far this year? I have watched 651. Well done. And John, what was the last movie you saw? The last movie I saw was, I believe.

the third ever movie that Alfred Hitchcock directed. It was a silent movie. Avengers. Funnly enough, it was basically about a serial killer called The Avenger, who went around murdering women

with blonde hair. John gets a, Dill gets a point for that. Yes. It's called The Lodger, a story of the London fog, and it was pretty decent for a silent movie, which is nearly a hundred years old.

Nice. Well, some of those old 100 year films are pretty good. Yeah, man. Dylan? Yes. Oh, actually, no, John, where, what is your,

where can they find your reviews of this movie as well as others? They can find it on Letterboxed at Big John Balski Ornwood. And Dylan, are things going over at Exploity Place?

Just don't worry about it. There's no need to concern yourself with my silly YouTube channel. You know, life is fleeting. You only have one life to live. Spend it going outside and when watching the sunset or hugging your significant other or patting a dog in the head. Just spend it doing worthwhile things. Don't spend it going to my stupid YouTube page, like bloody plays at YouTube.com. Just live your life, man.

well and you can always find me over at large old cup which is a podcast that is a stream of consciousness episodes are about 29 minutes long they're really good thank you no worries so we get a next point for that yep you get a point for politeness still and you've officially won yes oh bullshit

you were too rude John that's the problem god fucking damn it see it's language like that which is going to get you disqualify of the next quiz I don't know. Next time it'll be DC questions. Oh, no. We'll have a very low scoring game.

You should do that, like do a DC quiz because me and John were like, I don't fucking know of the flash. You just guess Green Lantern. You know, there's so many of them. You're bound to get it right. Superman. All right, folks. We'll catch you around next time. Check us on Spotify or YouTube if you're watching the opposite one.

Goodbye. Goodbye. Bye-bye. Sounds so sweet, no, I, but because it's the end of the show. You know, at the beginning of the show, you were ready to tear my throat out. And let me be honest with you.

It's almost out.
