00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:10.496
Hey, this is Daniel Warren Johnson, creator of books such as Murder Falcon, Extremity, Wonder Woman Dead Earth, and Beta Ray Bill, and you're listening to the Oblivion Bar podcast.

00:00:14.477 --> 00:00:21.940
Welcome to the Oblivion Bar podcast with your host Chris Hacker and Aaron Norris.

00:00:38.125 --> 00:00:38.805
Hello, everyone.

00:00:38.805 --> 00:00:42.365
Welcome to episode one eighty eight question mark of the Oblivion Bar podcast.

00:00:42.365 --> 00:00:44.405
I am Chris Hacker, one of your co-hosts here.

00:00:44.405 --> 00:00:51.045
And joining me today is my favorite square headed pickaxe carrying best friend, Aaron.

00:00:51.045 --> 00:00:54.526
I am Steve.

00:00:55.826 --> 00:01:00.246
So here's a little behind the scenes, everybody, before we get into this.

00:01:00.526 --> 00:01:02.865
This is Deadpool versus Deadpool Wolverine.

00:01:02.865 --> 00:01:04.025
Let's fucking go.

00:01:04.025 --> 00:01:04.445
Yeah.

00:01:04.445 --> 00:01:04.804
No.

00:01:04.804 --> 00:01:06.831
is fucking kids screaming in the theater.

00:01:06.831 --> 00:01:07.201
gotcha.

00:01:07.201 --> 00:01:07.421
Gotcha.

00:01:07.421 --> 00:01:09.433
OK, so we're going to talk about that.

00:01:09.433 --> 00:01:11.423
everyone, I just want to give a peek behind the curtain here.

00:01:11.423 --> 00:01:22.385
So Aaron and I initially thought we were wanting to review this on the show, because for me, Minecraft has a very particular and special place in my heart.

00:01:22.385 --> 00:01:28.207
It's maybe one of my I mean, there's an argument to be made as my favorite video game of all time.

00:01:28.548 --> 00:01:29.707
I very distinct.

00:01:29.707 --> 00:01:35.682
I have very important memories and distinct memories of playing this during our time in the military, not you and I, but.

00:01:35.682 --> 00:01:38.212
Just me alone in my bear room.

00:01:39.302 --> 00:01:40.143
Yeah.

00:01:40.474 --> 00:01:40.734
it.

00:01:40.734 --> 00:01:42.908
I particularly remember that a lot.

00:01:44.087 --> 00:01:48.948
And we eventually started playing it together, you much later in life, right around the time where we started the oblivion bar.

00:01:48.948 --> 00:01:49.709
Right.

00:01:49.709 --> 00:01:55.673
So it felt, you know, necessary to talk about this movie on the show.

00:01:55.772 --> 00:01:58.174
And then we watched it.

00:01:58.174 --> 00:02:04.108
We watched the movie and we decided maybe not, maybe not talk about it.

00:02:04.108 --> 00:02:05.778
But then we're like, you know what?

00:02:05.778 --> 00:02:07.859
We already went to the trouble to go see it.

00:02:07.859 --> 00:02:12.032
And I think there is some interesting things about this movie.

00:02:12.116 --> 00:02:14.387
not including the actual movie itself.

00:02:14.388 --> 00:02:19.942
But, Aaron, is there anything you want to sort of preface this review with before we really get into it?

00:02:19.942 --> 00:02:24.215
Like what were your thoughts on this sort of broadly?

00:02:25.116 --> 00:02:26.156
Perfect.

00:02:26.956 --> 00:02:28.768
Diamond or movie.

00:02:28.973 --> 00:02:30.375
Yeah.

00:02:30.375 --> 00:02:31.156
I'm kidding.

00:02:31.156 --> 00:02:36.737
This was the, a chicken jockey took a mic a little closer for me, please.

00:02:36.737 --> 00:02:37.661
If you can.

00:02:38.731 --> 00:02:39.032
Okay.

00:02:39.032 --> 00:02:43.687
This is like if a chicken jockey took a shit into my popcorn bucket.

00:02:43.687 --> 00:02:45.262
Okay.

00:02:45.262 --> 00:02:51.264
Okay, yeah, I mean, I definitely see where you're coming from, because I also agree, this movie is pretty bad, everybody.

00:02:51.406 --> 00:02:51.765
Okay.

00:02:51.765 --> 00:02:53.225
Let me, let me clarify.

00:02:53.225 --> 00:02:54.385
Actually, I'm going to be a hundred percent honest.

00:02:54.385 --> 00:02:59.159
There were some funny LOL moments in this movie.

00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:03.969
Can you of anything particularly like just anything off the of head that was really fun for you?

00:03:03.969 --> 00:03:06.042
Like, the.

00:03:07.629 --> 00:03:10.652
There was mostly just a couple of like, like one liners.

00:03:10.652 --> 00:03:11.532
Sure.

00:03:13.295 --> 00:03:17.490
I want to say like mostly, mostly it was Jack Black, you know, fucking love Jack Black.

00:03:17.490 --> 00:03:21.283
I think there's a couple of his like power moves that he did that were pretty funny.

00:03:21.283 --> 00:03:27.502
There was a time I don't remember what I don't exactly remember what they called it, but it was like the man sandwich or something.

00:03:27.502 --> 00:03:30.093
Oh yeah, where they're doing the 69 while we're flying.

00:03:30.093 --> 00:03:31.831
Were they to squeeze the whole like.

00:03:31.831 --> 00:03:32.806
Great bet.

00:03:34.110 --> 00:03:34.943
It's a great bit.

00:03:34.943 --> 00:03:54.786
were some, some just funny, like little moments, but I am, God, the amount of love that this movie is getting, the amount of love that movies like this have been getting very much makes me afraid.

00:03:55.192 --> 00:03:58.068
When you say love, can you be more specific?

00:03:58.068 --> 00:04:03.419
Like love in terms of critical acclaim or love in terms of attendance?

00:04:03.461 --> 00:04:04.103
Yes.

00:04:04.103 --> 00:04:04.504
Okay.

00:04:04.504 --> 00:04:05.111
Got it.

00:04:05.111 --> 00:04:07.306
Like, so, okay.

00:04:07.306 --> 00:04:16.661
I, I, I attribute the, and we'll get into this, the record breaking, you know, money, the box office.

00:04:17.134 --> 00:04:20.040
Can I say really quickly just to preface what you're about to say?

00:04:20.406 --> 00:04:21.266
No.

00:04:21.786 --> 00:04:24.588
Okay.

00:04:24.588 --> 00:04:35.303
I just want to attribute this to the do you remember what like basically GameStop when GameStop was going out of business and then a bunch of fucking people on Reddit decided to turn it into a meme stock.

00:04:35.303 --> 00:04:36.134
Yeah.

00:04:36.134 --> 00:04:39.497
And, and, bounce up the value happening.

00:04:39.497 --> 00:04:42.778
Yeah.

00:04:42.778 --> 00:04:43.269
Yeah.

00:04:43.269 --> 00:04:44.858
Wall Street bets as a whole thing.

00:04:44.858 --> 00:04:45.800
Okay.

00:04:45.939 --> 00:04:49.822
That's what's happening to the movie industry right now with these pieces of shit film.

00:04:50.060 --> 00:04:53.961
Like they're, being turned into a joke, a viral joke on society.

00:04:53.961 --> 00:05:00.204
And that's why we're seeing kids going to these theaters and creating a fucking meme in society.

00:05:00.204 --> 00:05:02.615
It's, the same thing as flash mobs.

00:05:02.615 --> 00:05:06.838
It's the same thing as dancing up the aisle at your wedding.

00:05:06.838 --> 00:05:13.800
It is a moment where people are doing everything they can to turn something into a publicity stunt for themselves and to gain clicks.

00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.173
And this is fucking sad.

00:05:16.173 --> 00:05:16.593
Sure.

00:05:16.593 --> 00:05:19.225
Yeah, I definitely can see some of that and it is frustrating.

00:05:19.225 --> 00:05:25.146
You know, more than anybody that I really like a quiet theater and I and I was going to get to that.

00:05:25.146 --> 00:05:31.697
I want to I do want to talk about sort of your theater setting, but I want to stick on this really quickly because it is interesting.

00:05:31.978 --> 00:05:34.228
And I should tell everybody I'm not going to edit this at all.

00:05:34.228 --> 00:05:37.819
Aaron and I, we didn't plan and transcript for this.

00:05:37.819 --> 00:05:46.029
We just wanted to get on in front of a mic and talk about this movie and just brained up on it because we already sort of went to the trouble to see it.

00:05:46.029 --> 00:05:47.870
And it is killing, right?

00:05:47.870 --> 00:05:58.790
So I think before I get into, you know, again, the setting and getting more into the story and why I feel like this movie is interesting, I do want to talk about the box office because I feel like that's the most interesting part about this whole thing.

00:05:58.850 --> 00:06:04.689
So it had a one hundred sixty three million dollar domestic opening.

00:06:04.689 --> 00:06:07.790
hundred sixty three million opening for domestic.

00:06:07.790 --> 00:06:09.649
hundred and fifty million abroad.

00:06:09.649 --> 00:06:14.968
So almost even, which is extremely rare, which equate out to about three hundred and thirteen.

00:06:14.968 --> 00:06:16.939
point 7 million worldwide.

00:06:16.939 --> 00:06:19.430
It's already the fourth highest grossing film of the year.

00:06:19.430 --> 00:06:20.800
And it's opening weekend.

00:06:20.860 --> 00:06:22.420
This is going to break a billion.

00:06:22.420 --> 00:06:23.261
Everybody.

00:06:23.261 --> 00:06:29.754
It's going to be the most like up to, would say fantastic for in July.

00:06:29.754 --> 00:06:32.004
This will be the highest grossing film of the year.

00:06:32.605 --> 00:06:33.365
Undoubtedly.

00:06:33.365 --> 00:06:39.778
Like before we even get to thunderbolts in May, this will be the highest grossing film of the year.

00:06:40.427 --> 00:06:41.908
and I have thoughts on this.

00:06:41.908 --> 00:06:50.464
I agree with you 110 % 110 % About the smooth brainness of this movie.

00:06:50.464 --> 00:07:00.790
It is not only stupid, but it's also lame in like the worst ways possible with a couple exceptions, right?

00:07:00.790 --> 00:07:07.053
Jason Momoa, every fourth or fifth scene says a funny thing or does something funny.

00:07:07.314 --> 00:07:14.387
Jack Black, I've grown up with this guy leading, you know, teenage to kid movies, know, School of Rock.

00:07:14.529 --> 00:07:15.430
Ghost.

00:07:15.752 --> 00:07:18.124
he did, gosh.

00:07:18.124 --> 00:07:20.492
Now I'm, he wanted me to see that he did super super Mario Bros.

00:07:20.492 --> 00:07:21.646
But that was like recently.

00:07:21.646 --> 00:07:24.129
he I mean he did he did be kind rewind.

00:07:24.129 --> 00:07:25.110
Yeah.

00:07:25.110 --> 00:07:25.911
Which good.

00:07:25.911 --> 00:07:26.771
Yeah.

00:07:26.771 --> 00:07:29.773
Goosebumps, which was semi recently as well.

00:07:31.153 --> 00:07:34.475
He's I mean, he's done is.

00:07:35.276 --> 00:07:37.297
Today's just he was so important to me as a young person.

00:07:37.297 --> 00:07:38.158
Right.

00:07:38.358 --> 00:07:42.220
So he's he's been a part of my life in varying times.

00:07:42.500 --> 00:07:52.915
There's an argument to be made that like he is like maybe one of the most important actors or people in Hollywood for me as a moviegoer and as a fan of pop culture and such.

00:07:52.983 --> 00:07:54.319
So like, like him in this movie.

00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:56.529
Everybody else could care less.

00:07:56.529 --> 00:07:57.935
Why is Jennifer Coolidge in this movie?

00:07:57.935 --> 00:07:58.987
I don't know.

00:08:01.173 --> 00:08:02.975
She's just being Jennifer Coolidge.

00:08:07.767 --> 00:08:09.440
general college.

00:08:09.463 --> 00:08:13.778
I make sex jokes because I him That's what she does.

00:08:13.778 --> 00:08:14.069
Yeah.

00:08:14.069 --> 00:08:14.999
And then you get the village room.

00:08:14.999 --> 00:08:15.639
Hmm.

00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:16.550
Hmm.

00:08:16.550 --> 00:08:17.720
Hmm.

00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:22.961
Which is actually probably one of the decent bits in the film, especially at the end, which we'll get to.

00:08:22.961 --> 00:08:23.682
We'll get to that.

00:08:23.682 --> 00:08:24.853
Yeah.

00:08:24.853 --> 00:08:26.684
I wanted more of that, but we'll get to it.

00:08:26.684 --> 00:08:38.418
So but I say all that to say this is that this movie didn't anger me, you know, in the same way that like Captain America, Brave New World did not in the same way that like Sonic three even did.

00:08:38.418 --> 00:08:45.134
Because Sonic three to me feels Like they stopped trying like this.

00:08:45.134 --> 00:08:52.578
That franchise has found its quality that it wants to hit and it is fine there and does not want to get any better or worse.

00:08:53.220 --> 00:08:58.883
This to me is, first of all, a like much necessary shot in the arm for movies.

00:08:58.883 --> 00:09:12.980
This has been the worst box office year, excluding 2020 since like, I don't, don't know the exact data, but I think it's from the early eighties of like one of the worst move, like in terms of box office thus far in this year.

00:09:13.432 --> 00:09:16.443
So for that, I appreciate it, right?

00:09:16.443 --> 00:09:18.426
Like Minecraft is bringing people to theaters.

00:09:18.426 --> 00:09:19.437
That's important.

00:09:19.437 --> 00:09:21.938
know, it's the same way with like Hush 2 and comics.

00:09:21.938 --> 00:09:27.893
I fucking hate the idea of Hush 2, but I'm happy that it's bringing people to theaters.

00:09:28.066 --> 00:09:33.750
want to echo what you're saying because like it's not the movie that makes me so frustrated.

00:09:34.131 --> 00:09:35.972
What it stands for.

00:09:36.793 --> 00:09:38.115
Which is?

00:09:38.336 --> 00:10:01.092
Which is, mean, just the, the incredible lack of respect for what cinema, the experience of cinema is because we're now creating, okay, much like movies like wicked have created a need for sing along.

00:10:01.092 --> 00:10:09.422
mean, and there's been, this is not something new, but it's become more popular when these popular.

00:10:09.422 --> 00:10:17.259
Yeah it's become more necessary as these bigger, you know, movies that have these, that have these followings.

00:10:17.259 --> 00:10:17.950
Okay.

00:10:17.950 --> 00:10:28.716
As you create these, these franchise movie franchises that have such followings, you're going to have to have specialized viewings for particular groups of them.

00:10:28.716 --> 00:10:31.957
like when a movie like this comes out, that you know, is going to be insane.

00:10:31.957 --> 00:10:38.761
You're going to have to have like probably a few viewings more than likely that are just adults.

00:10:38.957 --> 00:10:39.419
Sure.

00:10:39.419 --> 00:10:41.135
Do you think they should separate it?

00:10:41.135 --> 00:10:45.090
Be like, this is a fan viewing where like interactive, right?

00:10:45.090 --> 00:10:45.400
Yeah.

00:10:45.400 --> 00:10:45.677
Okay.

00:10:45.677 --> 00:10:56.957
Because if you if you look at what's again and again, I'm not I'm not being so harsh because I love what you said where this movie does not anger me because this movie was is what it is.

00:10:56.957 --> 00:10:59.498
They made exactly what they wanted to make.

00:10:59.498 --> 00:11:01.837
And it wasn't terrible.

00:11:02.177 --> 00:11:04.018
It wasn't the worst thing to hit.

00:11:04.118 --> 00:11:05.738
It wasn't the worst thing to hit the screens.

00:11:05.738 --> 00:11:08.138
I'm just going to I'm going to say I'm going to be honest.

00:11:08.138 --> 00:11:10.738
There was like there's like this.

00:11:10.738 --> 00:11:15.817
This there have been several movies that are way below this quality.

00:11:15.927 --> 00:11:16.471
Yeah.

00:11:16.471 --> 00:11:31.307
But there are these, we are now entering this, this weird phase where there is a whole generation of people that have become adults or at least like adolescents that can go to movies by themselves and act like complete assholes.

00:11:31.307 --> 00:11:32.138
Yeah.

00:11:32.479 --> 00:11:33.340
Did you have that?

00:11:33.340 --> 00:11:35.000
Did you have that in your theater?

00:11:36.384 --> 00:11:37.705
When did you see it?

00:11:37.705 --> 00:11:39.155
I should ask you as well.

00:11:41.015 --> 00:11:43.942
I'm just going to let you know that I refuse to go watch this at the movie theater.

00:11:43.942 --> 00:11:45.936
So I found a copy online.

00:11:46.717 --> 00:11:47.538
All right, everybody.

00:11:47.538 --> 00:11:52.760
Aaron just admitted on live here on that he found it through nefarious reasons.

00:11:52.760 --> 00:11:53.181
Okay.

00:11:53.181 --> 00:11:57.842
I will tell you that I saw it on, what was it?

00:11:57.842 --> 00:11:58.212
gosh.

00:11:58.212 --> 00:12:04.605
Now Thursday at 4 PM, literally the earliest reading that you could see it.

00:12:04.985 --> 00:12:06.407
And I'll be honest, it was a good viewing.

00:12:06.407 --> 00:12:10.149
Like there were a couple of kids and yeah, they were kind of loud here and there, but it was IMAX.

00:12:10.149 --> 00:12:13.730
Therefore I couldn't hear them, but like they were having fun.

00:12:13.730 --> 00:12:16.111
And that's something else I wanted to kind of bring up and I can't take credit for this.

00:12:16.111 --> 00:12:18.232
I heard it somewhere and I'm trying to remember where it was.

00:12:18.232 --> 00:12:23.496
But like this kind of feels like the changing of the guard, Aaron, for our generation.

00:12:23.496 --> 00:12:23.797
Right.

00:12:23.797 --> 00:12:26.219
Like think about the kids today.

00:12:26.219 --> 00:12:28.190
What is what?

00:12:28.190 --> 00:12:35.063
Like big tentpole movies have been for kids that like weren't for us at some point.

00:12:36.326 --> 00:12:40.288
You know, like you can't say the minions because Despicable Me came out when I was a kid.

00:12:40.288 --> 00:12:40.688
Right.

00:12:40.688 --> 00:12:40.958
Yeah.

00:12:40.958 --> 00:12:41.578
Super Mario.

00:12:41.578 --> 00:12:44.293
You could say that, but That's your generation, really.

00:12:44.293 --> 00:12:46.240
That's when Mario first came out.

00:12:46.241 --> 00:12:50.687
this generation doesn't really have their I mean there's not a whole lot that's just for them.

00:12:50.687 --> 00:12:50.956
Right.

00:12:50.956 --> 00:12:57.092
And I want to just clarify when I say that I didn't necessarily find it.

00:12:57.336 --> 00:12:59.450
You just walked by the theater and looked in.

00:13:03.533 --> 00:13:11.144
I'm just going to let you know that like a couple of days ago, an unfinished version of the movie leaked online.

00:13:11.144 --> 00:13:11.745
did it?

00:13:11.745 --> 00:13:12.230
Did it really?

00:13:12.230 --> 00:13:12.532
Okay.

00:13:12.532 --> 00:13:13.395
I didn't know that.

00:13:13.395 --> 00:13:16.990
was like an unfinished, like the graphics weren't 100 % there.

00:13:16.990 --> 00:13:17.448
Got it.

00:13:17.448 --> 00:13:20.375
But like to me, I knew the graphics like it's Minecraft.

00:13:20.375 --> 00:13:27.645
Like what graphics are you excited What more movie could you what movie could you go to and use your imagination more than in Minecraft?

00:13:27.645 --> 00:13:28.289
Right.

00:13:28.289 --> 00:13:29.321
Thank you.

00:13:29.321 --> 00:13:33.793
I will say this, that there were some funny ass things that I did see when I watched the...

00:13:33.793 --> 00:13:34.874
And I thought that that was...

00:13:34.874 --> 00:13:46.520
The reason I actually did do that as well is because I wanted to have the comparison between the unfinished version and see what our enjoyment levels were going to be.

00:13:46.520 --> 00:13:48.321
Because the version...

00:13:48.429 --> 00:13:52.844
I was going tell you, the version that I saw was like PNGs.

00:13:52.844 --> 00:13:55.485
It like stunt cables.

00:13:55.830 --> 00:14:02.234
Like at one point there was like a villager walking around where it was just like a big foam head and somebody's face coming out of the front of it.

00:14:04.616 --> 00:14:10.160
Like it, like it was, it was, and I felt to me, I felt like that actually added to the enjoyment of it.

00:14:10.160 --> 00:14:10.410
Sure.

00:14:10.410 --> 00:14:11.421
Watching it.

00:14:11.916 --> 00:14:19.881
I mean, to your credit, though, even though you didn't go, there have been like a wild amount of audiences who cannot control themselves.

00:14:19.881 --> 00:14:24.200
Like I've seen videos of like people having the cops called on them because they're being.

00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:25.160
I you multiple.

00:14:25.160 --> 00:14:35.693
I sent you multiple because here's and that's why like I have a big issue and that's why to be quite honest, I was, it gave me anxiety actually thinking about going and seeing this movie.

00:14:35.693 --> 00:14:45.658
Because we cannot be quiet, you and I, like in terms of like if someone were to be annoying, we would say something and it always fucks up my viewing experience.

00:14:45.658 --> 00:14:47.068
it ruins the whole experience.

00:14:47.068 --> 00:14:47.960
I leave more.

00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:48.730
leave angry.

00:14:48.730 --> 00:14:49.922
I leave upset.

00:14:49.922 --> 00:14:50.913
like there were videos.

00:14:50.913 --> 00:15:02.351
So like first off, the amount of videos that I see more recently now of people recording scenes from from movies is disgusting.

00:15:02.812 --> 00:15:08.517
fact that these kids are being like kicked out of the theaters because they're throwing popcorn and drinks.

00:15:08.517 --> 00:15:14.423
And then there was one theater where somebody told the kids just to be quiet and like they just started screaming at him.

00:15:14.423 --> 00:15:15.734
to get out.

00:15:16.274 --> 00:15:16.674
No.

00:15:16.674 --> 00:15:20.114
So it's like to me, it's like it's and it's all over.

00:15:20.114 --> 00:15:30.457
I would never growing up, I would never have considered recording like the video, like the movie that I went to go see.

00:15:30.758 --> 00:15:31.177
Never.

00:15:31.177 --> 00:15:31.698
would never.

00:15:31.698 --> 00:15:33.519
But like people just get away with it.

00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:38.519
Like it's such a thing now where kids will literally sit there with their camera and hold it up and record it.

00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:39.770
And I've had to say something.

00:15:39.770 --> 00:15:42.181
And maybe I'm maybe I'm a buzzkill.

00:15:42.181 --> 00:15:44.374
Maybe I'm a fucking boomer or something.

00:15:44.374 --> 00:15:46.240
But it's about respect, you know?

00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:48.107
it's like, to me, that's...

00:15:48.107 --> 00:15:49.803
You wouldn't steal a car.

00:15:49.803 --> 00:15:51.815
You wouldn't download a car, would you?

00:15:52.054 --> 00:16:01.499
It's one of those things where when people do that, even if you're on your phone, if you're not recording or if you're just talking, we all paid way too much money to be here right now.

00:16:01.499 --> 00:16:03.399
Let's just baseline.

00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:11.462
We all spent at least 18 bucks to come see this movie in a theater, which is part of the reason why most folks don't even go to the theater.

00:16:11.462 --> 00:16:14.004
That right there alone is why people don't go out.

00:16:14.004 --> 00:16:19.264
But if you include the idea that you have to deal with people being rude.

00:16:19.264 --> 00:16:23.644
in the theater while this film is happening, distracting you from the viewing experience.

00:16:23.644 --> 00:16:24.856
Cause that's why we go to the movie theater, right?

00:16:24.856 --> 00:16:25.836
It's to be immersed.

00:16:25.836 --> 00:16:27.057
It's for the ambiance.

00:16:27.057 --> 00:16:35.571
It's for the popcorn smell and the dark room and the, and the base and all the things, the trailers, all these things factor into why people go to the movie theater.

00:16:35.571 --> 00:16:41.764
And if you have some 17 year old Snapchatting the entire movie, it's going to ruin it.

00:16:41.764 --> 00:16:45.066
It's going to add more reason to not, it's going to incentivize you not to go.

00:16:45.259 --> 00:16:50.995
I want people to start going into like when they go to movie theaters and these people cannot control themselves.

00:16:50.995 --> 00:16:57.923
I want people to be to start being more willing to walk out and ask for their money back.

00:16:58.725 --> 00:17:02.693
And I, that's That was incentivize the theater to enforce it.

00:17:02.741 --> 00:17:03.282
Exactly.

00:17:03.282 --> 00:17:05.663
That will that is an unfortunate thing to do.

00:17:05.663 --> 00:17:15.847
And it is not always the most comfortable thing to do, but it will incentivize the theater to take control and have somebody in those theaters to ensure that the movie movie going experience is top notch.

00:17:15.847 --> 00:17:18.898
Like I love like I will like I don't even mind now.

00:17:18.898 --> 00:17:31.624
Like I'll probably start spending more money to go to places like Alamo, Alamo, you know, because Alamo they say very clearly if they have to say something to you, they will kick you out.

00:17:32.180 --> 00:17:33.213
And that's what I want.

00:17:33.213 --> 00:17:35.942
I want my movie theater to be a dickhead.

00:17:37.634 --> 00:17:44.119
It's like, you know, I want my Uber driver to be like 10 and two the whole time doing this five under the speed limit, even though they never do.

00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:46.761
But like, yeah, you know, I totally agree.

00:17:46.761 --> 00:17:56.410
There's those videos you sent me and it's sort of been like the pervasive experience for a lot of old heads like us that want the kids to just shut up and watch the movie.

00:17:56.410 --> 00:18:03.315
There's a particular scene where Jason Mamo's character character Garrett has to fight a chicken jockey.

00:18:03.395 --> 00:18:05.257
This is what people are going insane for.

00:18:05.257 --> 00:18:06.357
And I'm curious.

00:18:06.529 --> 00:18:08.010
You know, we're both Minecraft fans.

00:18:08.010 --> 00:18:10.550
remember playing beta 1.4.

00:18:10.550 --> 00:18:22.984
Like I was part of that 2000, 2011 crew that downloaded it on their MacBook and played it, you know, where there was like seven or, you know, total, but I don't know what the hell chicken jockey is.

00:18:22.984 --> 00:18:24.326
Do you know what that is?

00:18:24.743 --> 00:18:27.541
No idea, apparently people are fucking insane for it.

00:18:27.541 --> 00:18:30.682
Yeah, I mean, I know that they're annoying in the game.

00:18:30.682 --> 00:18:46.307
Like I've I've encountered these and people who don't know we're talking about a chicken jockey is basically a baby zombie who are like really fast in the game on top of a chicken, which are also fast and they will just come at you and bam bam before you can even like swing your sword at them.

00:18:46.307 --> 00:18:48.548
They will just keep hitting you over and over and over again.

00:18:48.548 --> 00:18:51.429
So they're like notoriously really annoying creatures in the game.

00:18:51.429 --> 00:18:54.619
But I don't understand why everyone's going so crazy in the movie theater because of that.

00:18:54.619 --> 00:18:55.380
Right.

00:18:55.538 --> 00:18:59.763
And there's also another scene that I couldn't find online and maybe Aaron, you could possibly find it.

00:18:59.763 --> 00:19:06.852
There's a scene where they enter the the village and a pig with a crown walks by.

00:19:06.893 --> 00:19:07.933
What is that?

00:19:08.557 --> 00:19:36.201
So, um, that is a, so the actual reference to that one was, uh, I watched an interview about this movie and this, this, um, I'm just going to say this interviewer was talking to the director and he said, is there a ref Jared has, uh, they said, is there a reference to techno blade and techno blade is, he was the world's number one Minecraft streamer and he passed away from cancer.

00:19:36.201 --> 00:19:37.461
Okay, got it.

00:19:37.461 --> 00:19:40.063
So that's why he said, is that pick a king?

00:19:40.063 --> 00:19:41.884
said, no, that's not a king.

00:19:41.884 --> 00:19:43.203
He's a legend.

00:19:43.805 --> 00:19:48.987
And so, yeah, he was, it was actually a really good story behind it.

00:19:48.987 --> 00:19:52.167
And it was actually, it was a really nice tribute.

00:19:52.167 --> 00:20:05.003
And to the fact that, know, again, that, I mean, I got, that's one thing I got to say is for somebody who doesn't know a whole lot about the lore, fans are really happy of the fact that this movie is going so much.

00:20:05.038 --> 00:20:10.157
like into the lore, they're staying so much within like the story and bringing these things.

00:20:10.157 --> 00:20:13.538
And do I agree with how the movie was necessarily carried out?

00:20:13.538 --> 00:20:21.657
Because I mean, like the fact that there's like this brother and sister that go in there, we know nothing of their background other than their parents are dead.

00:20:22.097 --> 00:20:29.337
There's like a realtor for some reason who's like has a mobile zoo is brought in with them.

00:20:29.337 --> 00:20:31.218
Like they have a weird relationship with them.

00:20:31.218 --> 00:20:41.614
Like it would have been so much more funny and better if it had just been probably the kid and Garrett the garbage man and you know, and Jack Black as Steve.

00:20:41.614 --> 00:20:47.728
Like to me, it just, didn't need all that extra expose on like familial relationships.

00:20:47.728 --> 00:21:03.586
Like it just, there was a lot that brought nothing to it, but you know, I, again, I can't, I can't fault a movie that's, that's doing so well because I don't know, because I simply don't know as much as some people do, but apparently the chicken jockey is a very rare enemy.

00:21:03.586 --> 00:21:05.020
Yeah.

00:21:05.020 --> 00:21:07.085
And people were excited about it.

00:21:07.693 --> 00:21:19.433
Because it to happen randomly like a zombie baby zombie has to spawn, you know, like when it turns night in Minecraft, it has to spawn on top of a already walking around chicken, which is like extremely rare.

00:21:19.433 --> 00:21:20.814
Like it definitely is.

00:21:20.814 --> 00:21:23.034
And you brought up a good point there.

00:21:23.213 --> 00:21:32.253
The there's still this thing in Hollywood where we feel like we have to have like a human attachment to these otherwise very unhuman properties.

00:21:32.253 --> 00:21:34.673
thinking like Transformers, for instance.

00:21:35.074 --> 00:21:36.074
What's another one, Aaron?

00:21:36.074 --> 00:21:41.836
There's there's other ones that escaping me at the moment, gosh.

00:21:41.836 --> 00:21:44.885
mean, Transformers is the best example, right?

00:21:44.885 --> 00:21:45.906
Yeah, it really is.

00:21:45.906 --> 00:21:49.267
Like we didn't, we don't need, Megan Fox.

00:21:49.267 --> 00:21:51.439
don't, mean, it was awesome to have.

00:21:51.439 --> 00:21:54.266
you know, it's a bit of a right.

00:21:54.266 --> 00:21:55.298
Let's keep the mega Fox.

00:21:55.298 --> 00:21:56.621
Let's exclude the Shia LaBeouf.

00:21:56.621 --> 00:21:57.692
You know what mean?

00:21:57.857 --> 00:22:01.382
Yeah, I love Shia LaBeouf.

00:22:03.507 --> 00:22:06.430
He's like the Dakota fanning of fucking Transformers.

00:22:06.430 --> 00:22:14.715
Well, part of the reason why I say all that is because, you know, the Super Mario Brothers movie, which was fully animated, cost $135 million to make.

00:22:14.715 --> 00:22:16.576
And it also did gangbusters.

00:22:16.576 --> 00:22:26.144
And I think that proves that these movies, these IP video game IP movies don't necessarily have to be live action, but also be don't need actors.

00:22:26.144 --> 00:22:28.266
Or if you're going to do actors, just make them the voices.

00:22:28.266 --> 00:22:31.708
You know, like I think that makes much more sense, especially in this world.

00:22:31.708 --> 00:22:40.690
And I know you didn't see this because you watch some bootleg black market dark web version, but the movie doesn't look okay.

00:22:40.690 --> 00:22:41.656
I'll tell you this.

00:22:41.797 --> 00:22:44.519
It looks it's worst when there are humans on screen.

00:22:44.519 --> 00:22:45.580
You know what mean?

00:22:45.580 --> 00:22:48.704
Like the minecrafty characters look great.

00:22:48.704 --> 00:22:50.906
Like they look weirdly really, really good.

00:22:50.906 --> 00:22:54.718
Like the textures, all that, you know, from trailer.

00:22:54.718 --> 00:23:02.932
Like I like luckily I have an imagination so I so I can watch this trailer and then I can watch what I watch.

00:23:02.932 --> 00:23:05.253
And it honestly was not it wasn't terrible.

00:23:05.253 --> 00:23:08.605
I'm telling you the fact that it was completely unfinished.

00:23:08.605 --> 00:23:10.846
That might be something to say for itself.

00:23:10.846 --> 00:23:11.228
Sure.

00:23:11.228 --> 00:23:17.030
The fact that an unfinished version was not that bad to watch versus the rest of it.

00:23:17.030 --> 00:23:31.002
Because again, when there's just like explosions and it's just like But, you know, I can see like the balloon, those, those nether balloons or whatever they're called.

00:23:31.083 --> 00:23:31.713
Gasly.

00:23:31.713 --> 00:23:32.262
Yeah.

00:23:32.262 --> 00:23:32.614
Yeah.

00:23:32.614 --> 00:23:36.166
Like those things, like they're just like, it's just literally like a PNG like floating around.

00:23:36.166 --> 00:23:38.288
I wish you could see the version that I saw.

00:23:38.288 --> 00:23:42.211
Honestly, it honestly wasn't like super terrible.

00:23:42.211 --> 00:23:47.715
But again, I think that they knew exactly what they were doing when they brought Jack Black into this.

00:23:47.715 --> 00:23:48.666
But you know what?

00:23:48.666 --> 00:23:54.626
I feel like we're kind of We can we can digress a little bit and talk about like the director writer.

00:23:54.626 --> 00:23:56.941
Let's let's have a how we get into that a little.

00:23:56.953 --> 00:24:04.876
One more question before we get into sort of the minutia of the actual movie, but like, did you like this more than like say Sonic?

00:24:05.778 --> 00:24:08.338
Like the Sonic, is this better than like the Sonic franchise?

00:24:08.338 --> 00:24:19.794
I'm trying to find a gauge for like, what is this, you know, outside of again, the box office value, like, because I agree with you, Hollywood learns the wrong lessons and they will see this.

00:24:19.794 --> 00:24:22.164
They'll see the numbers and they'll go more Minecraft movies.

00:24:22.164 --> 00:24:25.037
Like Minecraft two has been green lit, undoubtedly.

00:24:25.037 --> 00:24:27.169
there's going to be there's going to be the Minecraft universe now.

00:24:27.169 --> 00:24:31.645
100 % It's going to go it's going to go fucking hard like part of the term hog wild.

00:24:31.670 --> 00:24:38.336
In terms of quality, though, where does this land on the pedigree of like video game adaptations?

00:24:38.359 --> 00:24:38.790
Be honest.

00:24:38.790 --> 00:24:44.468
mean, this is, this is this one probably about the same level as Sonic one.

00:24:44.630 --> 00:24:46.872
OK, is Sonic one of your best?

00:24:46.872 --> 00:24:49.473
Like, is that your favorite of the the trilogy so far?

00:24:50.295 --> 00:24:57.560
OK, see, I think this is worse than the Sonic movies, but only slightly like they're about the same tier.

00:24:58.382 --> 00:25:00.663
I'm trying to think like the last of us.

00:25:00.663 --> 00:25:03.646
That's as to your video game adaptations fall out.

00:25:03.646 --> 00:25:05.847
I know I haven't finished it, but I know that you love it.

00:25:05.847 --> 00:25:07.229
A lot of people love it.

00:25:07.730 --> 00:25:09.371
We you know, you could even throw in.

00:25:09.371 --> 00:25:12.884
I mean, I remember us being sort of varied on this, but.

00:25:12.938 --> 00:25:14.863
I really love Super Mario Bros.

00:25:14.863 --> 00:25:21.602
and I get why people don't love it because it is very paint by numbers, but I think it just it's saying all the right notes that I wanted to hear, you know.

00:25:21.602 --> 00:25:21.791
Yeah.

00:25:21.791 --> 00:25:25.513
mean, I, I'm, and yeah, I mean, wasn't exactly what I wanted it to be.

00:25:25.513 --> 00:25:28.734
wasn't what I had hoped for, but it was entertaining.

00:25:28.734 --> 00:25:58.040
again, this one, I would give this a little bit higher of a, a, of rating because surprisingly enough, there was, there were moments that I did laugh, you know, and whether that was, you know, Jason Momoa as you know, the garbage man, like being just a complete tool, you know, or just the fact that, that Jack Black is just, he will consistently bring value to it, to a, to like an IP.

00:26:00.180 --> 00:26:03.502
It's like that's really all that they're like, that's it.

00:26:03.502 --> 00:26:10.277
I mean, there are just those things that will bring some semblance of enjoyment to it.

00:26:10.417 --> 00:26:13.375
So maybe not Sonic 1, maybe Sonic 2.

00:26:13.375 --> 00:26:16.250
It's like as quality as Sonic 2.

00:26:16.391 --> 00:26:19.775
Can I, can I give you before we get into the movie, one more thing, one more question.

00:26:19.775 --> 00:26:27.242
Can I give you a list of the, some of the worst video game movies and you tell me when the Minecraft movie was more enjoyable than that adaptation.

00:26:27.242 --> 00:26:31.432
Do not say the Super Mario Brothers move.

00:26:31.979 --> 00:26:36.132
no, no, no, I don't think that's on this list, but Assassin's Creed from 2016.

00:26:37.769 --> 00:26:39.013
I didn't watch it.

00:26:39.430 --> 00:26:40.744
need for speed.

00:26:40.814 --> 00:26:42.013
2014.

00:26:43.211 --> 00:26:44.459
anybody watch it?

00:26:44.459 --> 00:26:48.410
Well, I mean, some people watched it was the one with Aaron Paul from Breaking Bad.

00:26:48.410 --> 00:26:49.501
Remember that?

00:26:50.103 --> 00:26:51.763
No, not to see that one.

00:26:51.944 --> 00:26:54.221
Did Warcraft 2016.

00:26:56.622 --> 00:27:00.442
I mean, outside of some shoddy CGI, I don't hate that movie.

00:27:00.942 --> 00:27:02.082
I that was better.

00:27:02.082 --> 00:27:03.662
I think that was better than this.

00:27:03.662 --> 00:27:07.981
OK, let's say Mortal Kombat Annihilation from 97.

00:27:11.662 --> 00:27:12.961
OK, all right.

00:27:12.961 --> 00:27:13.662
Borderlands.

00:27:13.662 --> 00:27:14.597
Do see that one?

00:27:14.806 --> 00:27:18.032
I refuse to.

00:27:19.719 --> 00:27:22.763
You know how I feel about Jamie Curtis, Jamie Lee Curtis.

00:27:22.763 --> 00:27:23.234
Yep.

00:27:23.234 --> 00:27:25.759
Let's just say broadly Resident Evil movies.

00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:28.001
Just just all in total.

00:27:28.723 --> 00:27:30.856
You got to take the best like the best.

00:27:30.856 --> 00:27:32.048
OK, uncharted.

00:27:32.310 --> 00:27:33.799
I'll watch those.

00:27:36.997 --> 00:27:38.673
Do people hate that movie?

00:27:38.673 --> 00:27:39.253
think so.

00:27:39.253 --> 00:27:41.074
I think people hate it.

00:27:41.933 --> 00:27:48.314
I kind of get it because it's nothing like it's not bad, but it's also like it's so just PG.

00:27:48.993 --> 00:27:49.473
Right.

00:27:49.473 --> 00:27:52.205
It's made for everyone and therefore no one.

00:27:52.205 --> 00:27:58.074
Yeah, it's yeah, it's a benign it's yeah It just exists in the world.

00:27:58.074 --> 00:27:58.173
Okay.

00:27:58.173 --> 00:27:59.253
A couple more, a couple more.

00:27:59.253 --> 00:28:00.814
Rampage from 2018.

00:28:01.134 --> 00:28:02.342
Is this better than that?

00:28:03.463 --> 00:28:04.365
ooh.

00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:06.593
I don't hate that movie.

00:28:06.593 --> 00:28:13.432
It's so fucking stupid, I kinda like, it's a movie that like I'll put on when I'm doing other things.

00:28:13.432 --> 00:28:18.074
That's, I mean, that's worse than, than some of the other ones.

00:28:18.074 --> 00:28:22.263
mean, that's, would say, rampage is worse than this one.

00:28:23.886 --> 00:28:24.769
I don't know.

00:28:24.769 --> 00:28:29.179
I think I like Rampage more than this, but I get why people wouldn't.

00:28:29.922 --> 00:28:32.006
How about Max Payne from 2008?

00:28:32.736 --> 00:28:36.231
Ooh, that's a, that was a Mark Walbur.

00:28:36.231 --> 00:28:37.021
Yeah.

00:28:37.364 --> 00:28:38.410
I liked that one.

00:28:38.410 --> 00:28:39.577
He was gritty.

00:28:39.577 --> 00:28:44.237
That was, that was, they tried to make Max Payne like, sin city.

00:28:44.237 --> 00:28:44.978
Yeah.

00:28:45.912 --> 00:28:46.998
Okay, last one.

00:28:46.998 --> 00:28:48.950
Double Dragon from 1994.

00:28:49.304 --> 00:28:50.218
What?

00:28:52.046 --> 00:28:53.076
This is way worse.

00:28:53.076 --> 00:28:53.743
is way worse.

00:28:53.743 --> 00:28:54.210
Yeah.

00:28:54.210 --> 00:28:55.820
We were Dragon Ball.

00:28:55.820 --> 00:28:59.201
It's double, I mean double dragon.

00:28:59.201 --> 00:28:59.393
Yeah.

00:28:59.393 --> 00:29:03.152
Double dragon is so fucking it's, it's exactly what it's supposed to be.

00:29:03.152 --> 00:29:08.057
So we had a conversation with Aubrey citizen about, about what was it called?

00:29:08.057 --> 00:29:08.376
Bat?

00:29:08.376 --> 00:29:08.906
Not bad.

00:29:08.906 --> 00:29:14.680
It was about a buff, buff, buff boys, bros, buff bros, buff bros.

00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:19.180
If buff bros was made into a movie, like that's like, it's like river city ransom.

00:29:19.180 --> 00:29:24.557
you know, like buff bros and then you have like, you know, double dragon, like that's literally what this is.

00:29:24.557 --> 00:29:26.088
It's like streets of rage, man.

00:29:26.088 --> 00:29:31.174
It's like, can't, you're literally making up your own story when you make a movie about that shit.

00:29:31.174 --> 00:29:35.151
it's Rick and Morty where they're like two brothers, two brothers escaped the world.

00:29:35.151 --> 00:29:37.714
Two brothers saved the world because they're two brothers.

00:29:37.714 --> 00:29:39.690
Like that is, that's what this is, you know.

00:29:39.690 --> 00:29:41.471
yeah.

00:29:41.593 --> 00:29:42.433
Coco Schuko.

00:29:42.433 --> 00:29:43.756
Yeah.

00:29:43.756 --> 00:29:44.847
How long has it been?

00:29:44.847 --> 00:29:45.838
Have you ever even watched that?

00:29:45.838 --> 00:29:52.778
No, no, I just made a fucking total reference in that movie because that's what the bad guy called himself.

00:29:52.778 --> 00:29:55.653
It's like, you could call me Coco Schuko.

00:29:56.692 --> 00:29:57.874
T2 what's his name?

00:29:57.874 --> 00:30:00.153
He's also yeah Yeah, Oh man.

00:30:00.153 --> 00:30:01.114
Why am I saying?

00:30:01.114 --> 00:30:05.614
Yeah, I do without yeah, he's a T1,000 He's also the bad guy in peacemaker gosh.

00:30:05.614 --> 00:30:13.670
Yeah, why am I I'm gonna look this up before we move on Okay, so do you have anything any kind of like anecdotes before we sort of talk about the movie and it's total?

00:30:14.253 --> 00:30:15.913
will just say this.

00:30:16.794 --> 00:30:21.993
the one thing again, there's, there's certain things that I can't hate about this movie.

00:30:22.693 --> 00:30:41.733
And I'll tell you this, there's kind of a, uh, uh, I don't want to say it's like a bittersweet feeling when it comes to things like this, because one thing I've, I've, I've, I've come to understand is that there is a, like Minecraft, Minecraft in itself is a very special game to very, to a lot of people.

00:30:41.751 --> 00:30:42.584
Pause.

00:30:42.584 --> 00:30:44.087
What is your relationship with Minecraft?

00:30:44.087 --> 00:30:45.550
Because I don't think I've ever even asked you.

00:30:45.550 --> 00:30:47.405
Is it just me making you play it?

00:30:47.405 --> 00:30:48.597
Is that what it is?

00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:50.230
No, I will.

00:30:50.550 --> 00:30:52.432
It started off like that.

00:30:53.093 --> 00:30:58.467
So I, yeah, I really never had until you introduced me to actually start playing it.

00:30:58.467 --> 00:31:01.440
I never had any desire to play it.

00:31:01.440 --> 00:31:03.191
And I don't know if it was the graphics.

00:31:03.191 --> 00:31:06.374
I don't really know if it was just like, like I didn't really feel like there's much lore to it.

00:31:06.374 --> 00:31:08.984
There wasn't really much of a story, et cetera.

00:31:10.307 --> 00:31:13.048
Recently, and through playing it, I have.

00:31:13.709 --> 00:31:15.019
Enjoyed.

00:31:15.326 --> 00:31:33.253
And I'll say even this movie has like sparked more interest in this game for me Just out of simplicity and that's also I'm gonna tell you this because you we've been talking about it a lot because we're getting ready to start streaming on the oblivion bar Twitch channel again Is a game like no man's sky now?

00:31:33.253 --> 00:31:38.615
No man's sky is very much when I look at it like For what it is.

00:31:38.896 --> 00:31:40.287
It's like Minecraft.

00:31:40.287 --> 00:31:54.424
Like I'm literally like farming like different material to join it together, to create other materials so I can build my base or I can power my Starship or I can use it as, as ammo and my weapon or whatever.

00:31:54.424 --> 00:31:57.451
Like that's The ultimate sandbox games.

00:31:57.451 --> 00:31:59.824
Yeah, it's Minecraft in space.

00:32:00.201 --> 00:32:12.630
it again, I have a reference point now in my brain and understanding and therefore I can relate to how special this game can be to people.

00:32:12.630 --> 00:32:13.376
Mm-hmm.

00:32:13.376 --> 00:32:15.789
It really is whatever you make it Exactly.

00:32:15.789 --> 00:32:18.571
And I find that to be just like, it's an, it's an endearment.

00:32:18.571 --> 00:32:26.817
It's an endearing quality of this entire niche universe of Minecraft and what it's become for a lot of people.

00:32:26.817 --> 00:32:38.673
And to be honest, I, this, the, the story of this movie actually did something for me by explaining like, you know, people who want to be creative in different ways.

00:32:38.673 --> 00:32:41.765
Like this is a world for them.

00:32:41.865 --> 00:32:42.306
Yeah.

00:32:42.306 --> 00:32:45.747
And so like, again, that's a redeeming quality of the story.

00:32:45.747 --> 00:32:51.268
none of the things in this movie have really upset me other than a couple of characters that are completely unnecessary.

00:32:51.949 --> 00:32:56.420
It's everything that's that it has become outside of it, like the quality of people.

00:32:56.420 --> 00:32:59.401
Like, I wish people would be like, OK, we are Minecraft fans.

00:32:59.401 --> 00:33:00.580
We are the fan.

00:33:00.580 --> 00:33:01.270
Dumb.

00:33:01.270 --> 00:33:06.311
are the the the actual like, you know, audience for this movie.

00:33:06.412 --> 00:33:16.255
Let's I don't know, show people that we can be adults and enjoy the movie of the game like like you know, responsibly instead of going in there and acting like fucking asses.

00:33:16.332 --> 00:33:18.563
Yeah, it's a lot like the Sonic fans from Sonic 3.

00:33:18.563 --> 00:33:27.531
Like it's these people who make the experience about themselves, whereas they could use this opportunity to invite people into the world and the fandom of Minecraft.

00:33:27.531 --> 00:33:28.471
Like they could very eat.

00:33:28.471 --> 00:33:35.198
Like maybe I'm too close to it and maybe maybe I was too like entrenched in it to know.

00:33:35.198 --> 00:33:36.969
But I kind of feel like that's how the MCU was.

00:33:36.969 --> 00:33:45.057
Like in the beginning, when the Marvel universe first started, we were all like, I feel that like fans, people like myself and you.

00:33:45.057 --> 00:33:53.784
who love this material, like some of this material before it became a movie adaptation, we're like, my gosh, that's Mjolnir in Arizona, like our New Mexico, wherever it was.

00:33:53.784 --> 00:33:57.826
Like in the next, there's no way they don't introduce Thor in the next one, right?

00:33:57.826 --> 00:34:02.449
Or like, you know, Nick Fury showing up at the end of Iron Man, like that's gotta be the Avengers, right?

00:34:02.449 --> 00:34:04.611
Like that he, the Avengers initiative, holy crap.

00:34:04.611 --> 00:34:12.523
You know, like, but during the movie, I'm not like every time he says like, I could do this all day or whatever.

00:34:12.523 --> 00:34:13.434
Like I'm not.

00:34:13.434 --> 00:34:14.576
Let's fucking go.

00:34:14.576 --> 00:34:19.945
You know, the theater, I'm just internally screaming because this is like such a great moment, you know.

00:34:19.945 --> 00:34:20.445
Yeah.

00:34:20.445 --> 00:34:29.565
mean, I'll say like one of the only like the only time that and again, I think that that's that's there's like a difference there between the audience members.

00:34:29.565 --> 00:34:33.565
You have kids who are who have grown up to the point where they can go to the movies by themselves.

00:34:33.565 --> 00:34:38.965
They can decide what they're going to go see and they can go in there with their own money that they don't, you know, mommy, daddy.

00:34:38.965 --> 00:34:41.865
It's their money that mommy, daddy gave it to them or whatever.

00:34:41.865 --> 00:34:47.766
And they go in there and they just like they've come to expect everything that they want in this movie.

00:34:47.766 --> 00:35:04.519
And there's no surprises where People who are like fans of the MCU waited years of their lives, years of their lives, their entire lives to be invested in this universe that's coming to fruition realistically in front of them instead of from on the panels of a comic book in front of them.

00:35:04.519 --> 00:35:18.849
And the most irate that you'll ever get people are the most insane that you'll ever get people is when you have Captain America picking up Mjolnir and busting the chops off of fucking Thanos and you have people losing their fucking minds, but they're still doing it.

00:35:18.849 --> 00:35:20.735
like just excitedly they're clapping.

00:35:20.735 --> 00:35:26.168
They're like, like, yeah, but they're not fucking like, let's fucking go beat his ass.

00:35:26.168 --> 00:35:27.711
Thunder shock that mother.

00:35:27.711 --> 00:35:28.268
You know, they're not.

00:35:28.268 --> 00:35:33.451
Well, you know, honestly, like people who got way too excited and end game, I kind of get it.

00:35:33.451 --> 00:35:37.143
And again, maybe I'm biased because I love that universe up to that point.

00:35:37.143 --> 00:35:41.585
But that was 10 plus years and 18 movies that led up to that moment.

00:35:41.585 --> 00:35:43.306
And like I was never that person.

00:35:43.306 --> 00:35:47.898
I clapped and I cheered like I did all the things, but I didn't like get up and start jumping around and scream.

00:35:47.898 --> 00:35:51.199
And I didn't record it like all those things like, I don't know.

00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:53.300
Again, we're not trying to white knight this whole situation.

00:35:53.300 --> 00:35:57.673
And maybe Aaron and come off as like truly curmudgeon's in this scenario.

00:35:57.673 --> 00:36:03.646
But There just needs to be, and I think what it comes down to Aaron is that we remember going to the movie theater with our parents.

00:36:03.646 --> 00:36:10.766
Like at one point for the majority of our childhood, in order to go see a film, we had to go with our parents or other friends.

00:36:10.766 --> 00:36:14.344
And like there was a certain amount of decorum that went along with that.

00:36:14.344 --> 00:36:18.846
Whereas now 100%, you only went on Fridays, Saturdays, maybe, you know?

00:36:18.846 --> 00:36:19.666
Maybe.

00:36:19.666 --> 00:36:20.465
Maybe.

00:36:20.465 --> 00:36:28.269
And then like, but like nowadays there's no way, like there's no way that, you know, you're bringing little Timmy at 14 years old to the movie theater.

00:36:28.269 --> 00:36:29.269
Like he's going go with his friends.

00:36:29.269 --> 00:36:30.309
They're just going to Uber there.

00:36:30.309 --> 00:36:33.489
You're going to drop them off or whatever, you know, I don't know.

00:36:33.489 --> 00:36:35.349
There's there's a difference there.

00:36:35.349 --> 00:36:38.670
And it makes me never want to have kids is what I'm trying to say.

00:36:38.889 --> 00:36:41.909
And before before you move on, Aaron, I want to say Patrick.

00:36:41.909 --> 00:36:46.949
Robert Patrick was the the guy from T2 and Peacemaker and Double Dragon.

00:36:46.949 --> 00:36:49.849
All the things should have known that anyway.

00:36:50.269 --> 00:36:51.110
NBD.

00:36:51.110 --> 00:36:55.269
But OK, so moving on to the movie here.

00:36:55.469 --> 00:36:57.809
Was there a particular scene that really stuck out to you?

00:36:57.809 --> 00:37:02.210
was there, cause you said that like there were a couple like, hoorah, like you really enjoyed it.

00:37:02.210 --> 00:37:05.329
You weren't like, you weren't really enjoying it up to that point, but then you started to really enjoy it.

00:37:05.329 --> 00:37:08.485
Was there, was there a moment particular that like really brought it home for you?

00:37:10.414 --> 00:37:20.414
Um, I think the part that I started to enjoy was there's like this initial scene where, and I'm going to, gotta remember the kid's name because I, Henry, okay.

00:37:21.393 --> 00:37:24.070
Um, I'm more Sebastian Henry than you'll ever be.

00:37:24.530 --> 00:37:26.505
Yeah, Sebastian Hansen in this movie.

00:37:26.505 --> 00:37:27.708
think it's first film.

00:37:27.902 --> 00:37:28.922
Yeah.

00:37:29.262 --> 00:37:33.565
And he has a like, he has a very like vanilla look to him also.

00:37:33.565 --> 00:37:37.907
Like he's he's like the boy version of the girl from Ghostbusters.

00:37:37.907 --> 00:37:38.867
Yeah.

00:37:39.246 --> 00:37:43.969
But I would say there's that there's that like there's this scene.

00:37:43.969 --> 00:37:46.849
So I don't know if you remember, there was a movie that came out not too long ago.

00:37:46.849 --> 00:37:48.451
Well, quite a while ago.

00:37:48.451 --> 00:37:49.952
Not that long ago.

00:37:49.992 --> 00:37:59.650
Tomorrowland with George Clooney and In that movie, like he's a kid who's like he dreams of the future.

00:37:59.650 --> 00:38:02.742
He sees like, you he just he's a visionary.

00:38:02.742 --> 00:38:04.704
He's an inventor.

00:38:04.704 --> 00:38:05.394
He's inventive.

00:38:05.394 --> 00:38:07.427
He's, you know, resourceful.

00:38:07.427 --> 00:38:12.269
And in that he builds his own rocket pack, which is what helps him eventually make it to Tomorrowland.

00:38:12.269 --> 00:38:13.371
OK.

00:38:13.411 --> 00:38:19.576
And in this movie, this kid builds his own rocket pack, which is like you don't understand the world that they're living in.

00:38:19.576 --> 00:38:22.592
It's obviously not like a normal earth, you know.

00:38:22.592 --> 00:38:24.827
world is so not earth.

00:38:25.172 --> 00:38:29.387
Whatever they're living in currently in this movie, it looks like earth, but it's not.

00:38:29.387 --> 00:38:36.880
It's such an interesting, like I did enjoy the lead up, like the lead up have like the weirdest, this movie had the weirdest intro.

00:38:38.561 --> 00:38:38.931
Yeah.

00:38:38.931 --> 00:38:41.398
Wanting to be like a go into the, go into the.

00:38:42.344 --> 00:38:42.853
You know?

00:38:42.853 --> 00:38:46.396
And so like I, was like, that was interesting and kind of fun for me.

00:38:46.396 --> 00:38:52.217
And then it takes this weird, weird change into back into the real world with these kids.

00:38:52.217 --> 00:38:56.070
And like, there's a time jump that none of that really made any sense, but.

00:38:56.289 --> 00:38:58.490
I did enjoy the introduction.

00:38:58.490 --> 00:39:04.769
And then there's the scene where the kid first like really starts figuring out, like he starts punching the tree.

00:39:04.769 --> 00:39:08.954
And like if you've played the game and you don't know how to do anything, that's what you do.

00:39:08.954 --> 00:39:13.175
You start going up and like whacking the tree with stuff and it turns into this wooden block.

00:39:13.175 --> 00:39:21.597
And I felt like that was a really interesting way to like kind of introduce these new characters to the idea of what the world is.

00:39:21.597 --> 00:39:24.447
Just like everybody else who's been introduced to Minecraft.

00:39:24.447 --> 00:39:29.454
Like that's Everybody had to take that first step in the overworld.

00:39:29.454 --> 00:39:31.076
That's the beauty of Minecraft, right?

00:39:31.076 --> 00:39:37.824
They literally, I tell everyone this when we start playing, like Olivia and I, we've recently started playing it together and she loves it.

00:39:37.824 --> 00:39:39.907
And I had to sort of explain it to her before we start playing.

00:39:39.907 --> 00:39:45.875
It's like the beauty of this game is they just drop you in this world and then it's up to you.

00:39:45.875 --> 00:39:47.376
You figure it out from there.

00:39:47.376 --> 00:39:49.523
You can do whatever you Congratulations.

00:39:49.523 --> 00:39:52.876
It's the only world you're ever going to get to build your own house in.

00:39:52.965 --> 00:39:54.427
Yeah, especially right.

00:39:54.427 --> 00:39:56.389
Hun, this is the this is the house.

00:39:56.389 --> 00:39:56.878
This is it.

00:39:56.878 --> 00:40:00.650
Do you want to make it a diamond threshold?

00:40:01.913 --> 00:40:13.081
So, yeah, you know, I do like when they first get in the overworld, there was this sort of like very Steven Spielberg sort of wide eye.

00:40:13.081 --> 00:40:15.202
I don't know what you want to call it.

00:40:15.202 --> 00:40:18.284
It did feel kind of big in that moment.

00:40:20.206 --> 00:40:21.186
Gosh.

00:40:21.826 --> 00:40:28.068
I hate to, again, I don't want to sound like a true pessimist, but watching this movie, I think about halfway through the movie.

00:40:28.068 --> 00:40:31.030
Once they got to the village, I just started hate watching it.

00:40:31.030 --> 00:40:34.211
Like I knew everything that was going to happen up until the end.

00:40:34.211 --> 00:40:39.434
And for some reason, Aaron asked me real quick before I move on, asked me, did you stay for the end credit scene?

00:40:40.429 --> 00:40:41.867
Chris, did you stay for the incarnate scene?

00:40:41.867 --> 00:40:42.721
Yeah, I did.

00:40:42.721 --> 00:40:43.141
Why?

00:40:43.141 --> 00:40:44.483
Why did I do that?

00:40:45.289 --> 00:40:47.454
Did you stay for the end credits scene, Aaron?

00:40:47.554 --> 00:40:48.523
There was no in credits.

00:40:48.523 --> 00:40:56.061
I saw the mid credit scene, but there was no on the on the recording that on the the dark web file that I the dark web that I watch.

00:40:56.061 --> 00:40:59.985
It did not have the but I have heard what the in credit scene is.

00:41:00.773 --> 00:41:08.213
One thing that I like and I think it's so funny is, you know, we use like I am I know we're jumping ahead a little bit, but like We're just jumping around.

00:41:08.213 --> 00:41:09.454
There's no transcript everybody.

00:41:09.454 --> 00:41:11.213
There's no transcript for this one.

00:41:11.213 --> 00:41:15.594
One thing you could tell the interesting thing about a movie is the quotes that come from it.

00:41:15.594 --> 00:41:21.074
And like everybody could see like this movie's become a fucking meme machine.

00:41:22.494 --> 00:41:24.014
It was created to be a meme machine.

00:41:24.014 --> 00:41:33.934
And if you go to the quote section in IMDB and scroll down, it is all like 95 % is Steve.

00:41:34.155 --> 00:41:34.768
Black.

00:41:34.768 --> 00:41:36.849
Well, one of my favorite quote of the movie is from Steve.

00:41:36.849 --> 00:41:37.954
Do you want to hear it?

00:41:39.137 --> 00:41:42.804
You are truly a bodacious warrior and a really good friend.

00:41:44.983 --> 00:41:46.213
Do you have a favorite?

00:41:47.164 --> 00:41:50.791
A bodacious warrior and a really good friend.

00:41:52.065 --> 00:41:54.648
It was either the full man sandwich scene.

00:41:54.648 --> 00:41:55.407
Yeah.

00:41:55.407 --> 00:41:58.289
Or, how, don't know.

00:41:58.289 --> 00:42:02.813
Cause like, I get Jack Black was just Jack Black.

00:42:02.813 --> 00:42:07.840
was, and then I I they just had someone off camera going, hey, say this.

00:42:07.840 --> 00:42:13.652
And then Jack Black just said it in his Jack Blackness with all the kicks and the singing.

00:42:13.934 --> 00:42:20.577
There's a scene where Jennifer Coolidge is like, she's talking to Jason Mamoa.

00:42:21.177 --> 00:42:23.960
She says, you could take me to the curb anytime.

00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:30.583
And he's like, lady, whoever divorced you, like made like a truly made a mistake or like, you what they lost.

00:42:30.583 --> 00:42:31.693
And I'm just like that, right.

00:42:31.693 --> 00:42:33.255
That was my favorite quote.

00:42:33.255 --> 00:42:38.177
Cause it's like two just completely fucked up people, having a moment.

00:42:38.177 --> 00:42:42.230
And it was like so hard, like I could see it.

00:42:42.382 --> 00:42:43.492
I just think it's really odd.

00:42:43.492 --> 00:42:50.568
And I like Jennifer Coolidge a lot, but I just think it's odd that we still have Jennifer Coolidge doing her Jennifer Coolidge thing into her like mid sixties.

00:42:50.608 --> 00:42:50.914
Yeah.

00:42:50.914 --> 00:42:54.541
I mean, like it was cool when she was well, yeah.

00:42:54.541 --> 00:42:56.253
When she was 40, it was hot as fuck.

00:42:56.253 --> 00:42:57.844
She was the MILF.

00:42:57.844 --> 00:42:59.114
now.

00:43:00.257 --> 00:43:00.717
Right.

00:43:00.717 --> 00:43:01.297
Right.

00:43:01.297 --> 00:43:10.304
But like she's 65 now and like it kind of shows no offense, but like it's just not it's not doing I'm not it's not doing anymore, Jennifer.

00:43:10.304 --> 00:43:11.166
I apologize.

00:43:11.166 --> 00:43:11.956
Like.

00:43:12.096 --> 00:43:12.965
I don't know.

00:43:12.965 --> 00:43:23.521
But I will say that, you know, speaking of that incredible scene, speaking of Jennifer Coolidge, we find out that the villager that has been gone the whole movie is actually being voiced by Matthew Barry.

00:43:23.606 --> 00:43:26.476
Yeah, you really are the most devious.

00:43:28.034 --> 00:43:32.067
You really are the most devious bastard in New York City.

00:43:32.067 --> 00:43:33.755
New York city.

00:43:33.755 --> 00:43:34.677
Yeah.

00:43:34.766 --> 00:43:36.846
Yes, I can hear you, Clint Fenningo.

00:43:38.965 --> 00:43:44.726
I would have gotten that like if we do get a second one and we guarantee we are guaranteed to get a second one of these.

00:43:44.726 --> 00:43:49.865
If they do not bring Matthew Barry in to voice that villager, that will be a truly missed opportunity.

00:43:49.865 --> 00:43:54.525
Like he that was the funniest part of the movie, in my opinion, was that revelation.

00:43:54.648 --> 00:44:09.306
They've already said that like, you know, again with, there was the scene where Henry looked into the, Enderman's eyes and started seeing like flashes of all, like, like the dark versions of the characters.

00:44:09.306 --> 00:44:12.307
So you saw like, like anti Steve or what?

00:44:12.307 --> 00:44:16.929
don't even know what some of these are called, but like you saw like nega Steve.

00:44:17.289 --> 00:44:18.637
Nega Steve.

00:44:18.637 --> 00:44:20.057
Negusty.

00:44:20.077 --> 00:44:25.838
And then like, guess he saw other stuff like that's supposed to be like, you know, obviously like you're foreshadowing.

00:44:25.838 --> 00:44:26.097
Yeah.

00:44:26.097 --> 00:44:26.398
Yeah.

00:44:26.398 --> 00:44:31.177
Just to get into Jared Hess is back, you know, his, his, his back catalog here.

00:44:31.217 --> 00:44:42.818
Jared Hess was famous for a couple of short films, Palooka in 2020 or 2002, five, 95 senses from 2022.

00:44:42.818 --> 00:44:47.094
He directed both of those and wrote Palooka was also the cinematographer.

00:44:47.094 --> 00:44:48.467
Aaron, let's get to the thing that matters.

00:44:48.467 --> 00:44:54.574
He directed Napoleon Dynamite and and naturally bring that's what that didn't see.

00:44:54.574 --> 00:44:55.818
ever saw a gentleman Broncos?

00:44:55.818 --> 00:44:57.036
It was fucking weird.

00:44:57.036 --> 00:44:57.849
Yep.

00:44:57.860 --> 00:44:58.844
Didn't see it.

00:44:59.371 --> 00:45:01.929
It was, it was so, so weird.

00:45:01.929 --> 00:45:06.411
None of this, none of this means anything to me except for Napoleon Dynamite, Nacho Libre.

00:45:06.411 --> 00:45:07.311
You know what mean?

00:45:07.311 --> 00:45:08.182
And you can see it.

00:45:08.182 --> 00:45:21.079
Like when you watch this movie and if you know that going into it, you see the clear creative choices being made that look like those two movies where it's like the camera stays on a character for just a little too long.

00:45:21.079 --> 00:45:29.172
And they don't say anything of like context or of value for just long enough to where it's kind of awkward.

00:45:29.197 --> 00:45:29.777
You know what mean?

00:45:29.777 --> 00:45:40.358
Like that's he's going for is like a kind of a weird, again, as we said earlier, this, this world that they're all living in, even before they get over into the overworld does not mirror reality in any sense.

00:45:40.358 --> 00:45:48.398
Like you've got Jennifer Coolidge telling 10 year olds like that about her divorce and saying sex jokes in class.

00:45:48.398 --> 00:45:54.418
You've got the one teacher who is just like teaching nothing and just talking about his like normal pathetic life.

00:45:54.418 --> 00:45:54.998
You know I mean?

00:45:54.998 --> 00:45:56.918
Like this is just not reality.

00:45:57.057 --> 00:46:03.135
Did you know that, Jared has a voice, general Chungus in this movie.

00:46:04.380 --> 00:46:05.172
Yeah.

00:46:05.268 --> 00:46:06.148
That makes sense.

00:46:06.148 --> 00:46:06.469
OK.

00:46:06.469 --> 00:46:07.909
All right.

00:46:07.909 --> 00:46:11.313
And I love the fact that, shoot, what's her name?

00:46:11.313 --> 00:46:14.275
The one from Orange is the New Black.

00:46:14.956 --> 00:46:18.389
But Daniel Brooks, she's got a llama in her car.

00:46:18.389 --> 00:46:19.025
Right.

00:46:19.025 --> 00:46:19.240
Yeah.

00:46:19.240 --> 00:46:20.882
And that's Napoleon Dynamite.

00:46:20.882 --> 00:46:21.393
Tina.

00:46:21.393 --> 00:46:21.753
Yeah.

00:46:21.753 --> 00:46:22.983
Get your food.

00:46:23.704 --> 00:46:25.106
You fat lard.

00:46:25.730 --> 00:46:26.050
Yeah.

00:46:26.050 --> 00:46:27.371
Let's just go to the cast real quick.

00:46:27.371 --> 00:46:33.856
Obviously we know like Jason Momoa was Garrett, the garbage man, Jack Black with Steve, Sebastian Hansen was Henry.

00:46:33.856 --> 00:46:37.119
Emma Myers was Natalie.

00:46:38.240 --> 00:46:42.204
Danielle Brooks was Dawn, Jennifer Coolidge, vice principal Marlene.

00:46:42.204 --> 00:46:51.378
Rachel House was Malgosia and I, Rachel House, think she was in, She was in door Ragnarok.

00:46:53.018 --> 00:46:55.000
She was she's the death stick.

00:46:55.079 --> 00:46:55.760
She's the death.

00:46:55.760 --> 00:46:57.601
She's the.

00:47:00.621 --> 00:47:03.262
She's on she's on freaking Sikhar.

00:47:03.302 --> 00:47:06.344
She's like the one that is in the in the battle.

00:47:06.344 --> 00:47:08.304
She's a gosh darn it.

00:47:08.304 --> 00:47:09.664
Why am I spacing her name?

00:47:10.784 --> 00:47:12.525
She's New Zealand, obviously.

00:47:15.106 --> 00:47:16.867
Mack help us out if you're listening.

00:47:17.168 --> 00:47:19.070
I know you know what we're talking about.

00:47:19.291 --> 00:47:20.824
Topaz is her name in the movie.

00:47:20.824 --> 00:47:22.335
Gosh.

00:47:24.791 --> 00:47:35.617
She looks, okay, I feel like I'm looking her up right now because I wanted to see if she happens to be the same girl from, yeah, she was topaz in Enthal Ragnarok.

00:47:35.702 --> 00:47:38.304
I was spacing Jeff Goldblum's name.

00:47:38.527 --> 00:47:40.949
It's the grandmaster's like secondhand gal.

00:47:40.949 --> 00:47:44.989
Yeah, yeah, like the bitch, she's a bitch.

00:47:45.293 --> 00:47:48.173
Well, I didn't say, doesn't even start with an M.

00:47:48.173 --> 00:47:49.034
Yeah.

00:47:49.034 --> 00:47:50.494
Or whatever he says, but yeah.

00:47:50.494 --> 00:47:50.693
Okay.

00:47:50.693 --> 00:47:51.554
Keep going.

00:47:52.461 --> 00:47:52.913
let's see.

00:47:52.913 --> 00:47:54.742
And then you got Alan Henry.

00:47:55.454 --> 00:47:58.675
Alan Henry was Malgosia the creature performer.

00:47:58.675 --> 00:48:00.347
So obviously had the dots and stuff.

00:48:00.347 --> 00:48:06.951
And then had Bram Scotty for Henny is young Steve, Jermaine Clement Clement as Darrell.

00:48:07.992 --> 00:48:09.793
Jemma Jermaine Clement.

00:48:10.353 --> 00:48:10.974
yeah.

00:48:10.974 --> 00:48:15.222
He's the guy from from the storage area.

00:48:15.724 --> 00:48:16.585
Weirdly underused.

00:48:16.585 --> 00:48:18.188
I like Jermaine Clement and a lot of things.

00:48:18.188 --> 00:48:18.989
So.

00:48:19.565 --> 00:48:23.206
That's, mean, that's really hiring Garcia was mr.

00:48:23.206 --> 00:48:26.166
Gunshe or today's X.

00:48:26.306 --> 00:48:27.806
Uh, yeah, really not much.

00:48:27.806 --> 00:48:35.512
mean, I didn't, and there's actually a cast for Amanda billing as Henry's mother, but did we even see his, their mom?

00:48:35.512 --> 00:48:37.072
We see a picture ever at one point.

00:48:37.072 --> 00:48:38.623
Okay.

00:48:38.623 --> 00:48:43.927
Weirdly enough, Kate McKinnon from SNL plays Alex in the end credit scene.

00:48:44.748 --> 00:48:51.782
So the mid credit scene, everybody, you, for some reason, you're listening to this and you haven't seen the Minecraft movie, the end credit, sorry, yeah, not the mid credit.

00:48:51.782 --> 00:48:53.695
That's Matthew Barry as a villager.

00:48:53.695 --> 00:49:02.914
The end credit scene is Steve, AKA Jack Black, returning to his home, what used to be his home in the eighties before he went to the overworld.

00:49:02.914 --> 00:49:09.786
and he knocks on the door and the person living there at that time is Alex, which if you played the Minecraft movies, it literally means nothing.

00:49:09.786 --> 00:49:13.402
It's just the female version of Steve in the game.

00:49:13.402 --> 00:49:18.474
it's like Alex is just Luigi without any interesting backstory.

00:49:18.474 --> 00:49:19.965
You know what mean?

00:49:19.965 --> 00:49:21.677
So that's that's all it is.

00:49:21.677 --> 00:49:28.711
And I, know, I would be surprised if Kate McKinnon is not already cast as Alex in a future Minecraft movie.

00:49:28.711 --> 00:49:29.512
So.

00:49:31.414 --> 00:49:32.715
Aaron, what's your favorite bit in this movie?

00:49:32.715 --> 00:49:36.496
Was it Jennifer Coolidge wanting to fuck a villager?

00:49:36.536 --> 00:49:44.862
Was it Jack Black and Jason Momoa doing a 69 will flying or was it a Danielle Brooks?

00:49:45.603 --> 00:49:45.914
no, no.

00:49:45.914 --> 00:49:48.184
Was it the winged name?

00:49:48.184 --> 00:49:55.998
Name or winged iron Gollum just doing a punch on the piglet, the piglin at the end of the movie?

00:49:55.998 --> 00:49:58.038
I mean, that Golem was pretty badass.

00:49:58.038 --> 00:50:02.143
I don't know if that I don't know if that Golem is even like that version of the Golem.

00:50:02.143 --> 00:50:03.644
I don't know if that exists in the game.

00:50:03.644 --> 00:50:04.916
I've never seen it before.

00:50:05.121 --> 00:50:05.572
What was it?

00:50:05.572 --> 00:50:06.963
The tater gun?

00:50:06.983 --> 00:50:08.644
tot tot gun?

00:50:10.706 --> 00:50:14.960
No, I think that I don't think I really had a favorite bit.

00:50:14.960 --> 00:50:27.489
If I had a favorite like like schnick, it would probably be the just over bodaciousness of Garrett and the fact that like, again, there are so many things in this movie that like really remind me of like other movies.

00:50:27.489 --> 00:50:36.606
Like Garrett was basically the guys from if you ever watch pixels with, you know, like Adam Sandler and What's his name?

00:50:38.331 --> 00:50:43.681
Peter Dinklage, you know, and it was That's essentially Jason Mowes character in this, is Peter Dinklage.

00:50:43.681 --> 00:50:44.722
Yeah, exactly.

00:50:44.722 --> 00:50:45.043
Yeah.

00:50:45.043 --> 00:50:48.804
So he's like the he's like this out of like, like, what do call it?

00:50:48.804 --> 00:50:51.865
Like, like video game guru savant.

00:50:52.146 --> 00:51:00.391
I thought that that was pretty, pretty fun scene when it shows him like, like working out his fingers on, you know, moves.

00:51:00.391 --> 00:51:04.233
And he's like controlling two characters with like, you know, with the joysticks and the buttons.

00:51:04.233 --> 00:51:05.563
Like that was pretty interesting.

00:51:05.563 --> 00:51:12.338
Like there was again, there were so many things that I felt like were like kind of like mishmashed into this movie that didn't really like.

00:51:13.110 --> 00:51:18.793
lay into like, again, if he was like this video game savant, let's just say he was amazing at video games.

00:51:18.793 --> 00:51:19.672
Okay.

00:51:19.672 --> 00:51:20.972
To me.

00:51:21.474 --> 00:51:25.054
And he also owned also he owned a retro like video game store.

00:51:25.054 --> 00:51:31.427
He would have been like a kid in a candy store when he got into the overworld, he would have been like grabbing stuff and mashing stuff together.

00:51:31.427 --> 00:51:36.400
He would have been like an adult version of Henry, but like making simple shit.

00:51:36.400 --> 00:51:39.681
If you, if you know what I mean, like that's what I feel like he could have been.

00:51:39.865 --> 00:51:48.050
I think that this character sure that both pure Dinklage plays in pixels, but also Jason Momoa plays in this movie as have you ever seen a King of Kongs?

00:51:48.050 --> 00:51:52.110
The documentary about the the leading for everyone who hasn't seen it.

00:51:52.110 --> 00:51:58.134
It's a documentary about this guy who's trying to beat this long standing Guinness Book of World Record.

00:51:58.833 --> 00:52:00.375
Donkey Kong Jr.

00:52:00.375 --> 00:52:06.358
Score that was initially created by Billy Mitchell, who was essentially just Jason Momoa's character.

00:52:06.358 --> 00:52:07.050
But like.

00:52:07.050 --> 00:52:11.472
skinnier and with a mullet and really like hot sauce and a cheat also sideways.

00:52:11.472 --> 00:52:14.635
Like you didn't know this at the time of the documentary, but you find out much later.

00:52:14.635 --> 00:52:18.277
Like we found it like a couple of years ago that like he was cheating the entire time.

00:52:19.077 --> 00:52:20.117
You've met.

00:52:20.978 --> 00:52:21.969
God damn it, Aaron.

00:52:21.969 --> 00:52:24.181
You helped him.

00:52:24.181 --> 00:52:25.025
It is empire.

00:52:25.025 --> 00:52:27.807
not a, like, I'll be honest, like meeting him in person, he's not a bad guy.

00:52:27.807 --> 00:52:31.070
He's a bit egotistical, but he's not a terrible guy and his son is in the military.

00:52:31.070 --> 00:52:32.791
So we had a good conversation.

00:52:32.806 --> 00:52:33.085
All right.

00:52:33.085 --> 00:52:54.346
Well, he was he's painted as a villain in that documentary and it seems like he's been all but a dickhead since but the the character of like this world lost on them since they hit their peak in the 80s on an arcade system because the arcade system that the star shined bright and then it faded into obscurity pretty quickly.

00:52:54.445 --> 00:52:59.885
Like arcades were all but gone by the time I was a kid in the mid 90s but like they existed here and there.

00:52:59.885 --> 00:53:07.106
But like, boy, in 1985, you know, I would say like 81 to 88 arcades were king, you know?

00:53:07.126 --> 00:53:16.465
And then they just sort of they drifted into obscurity after the home console became a thing once Nintendo and Sega and Atari and all the things started to really take off at home.

00:53:16.686 --> 00:53:22.525
So, yeah, you know, I don't know, Aaron, is we got about I would say about seven, seven minutes left.

00:53:22.525 --> 00:53:24.742
Is there anything else you really want to say about this movie?

00:53:26.331 --> 00:53:29.333
I just like, I want to go over just some quick Easter eggs.

00:53:31.034 --> 00:53:42.405
I don't know if you want to use like the, found, so basically the, the one it's like the loading screen in the beginning of the game is like the square loading screen that every fucking Minecraft or knows, you know?

00:53:42.556 --> 00:53:45.068
so that was kind of like, I guess that was considered an Easter egg.

00:53:45.068 --> 00:53:51.572
The other one was like, the music was, that was played throughout the movie is the original Minecraft score.

00:53:52.215 --> 00:53:55.958
the movie, like the timeline of the days is actually like 20 minute days.

00:53:55.958 --> 00:54:00.030
They actually, you know, throughout the movie, they, they do go by.

00:54:00.887 --> 00:54:07.072
and I thought it was kind of cool when the moon did rise and like, you know, you saw like this, the, the, the cube moon.

00:54:07.115 --> 00:54:11.068
Yeah, we do see a golden apple in this movie at one point.

00:54:12.994 --> 00:54:19.347
the water buckets, apparently Steve's secret stash is an exact replica of what you see in the game.

00:54:19.347 --> 00:54:20.438
Yeah.

00:54:22.958 --> 00:54:38.385
again, the chicken jockey that we already talked about the techno blade Easter egg and the introduction to Alex, who is, guess, another character, which I guess is, I, again, I don't know enough about this game necessarily to be like, okay, like that's interesting.

00:54:40.780 --> 00:54:42.340
see if there's anything else.

00:54:42.340 --> 00:54:46.731
The second collaboration between Jack Black, obviously Jared Hess for Nacho Libre.

00:54:48.271 --> 00:54:48.961
Yeah.

00:54:48.961 --> 00:54:56.833
Kate McKinnon and Jermaine Clement previously appeared appeared together in DC League of Superpets, which I fucking enjoy the shit of that.

00:54:57.394 --> 00:54:58.695
Yeah.

00:54:58.695 --> 00:55:00.775
And it was released approximately three years prior.

00:55:00.775 --> 00:55:08.297
Interestingly enough, Clement was the voice of Aquaman in that movie, who is famously portrayed in the DC extended universe by Jason Momoa.

00:55:08.297 --> 00:55:09.108
Yeah.

00:55:09.869 --> 00:55:16.869
Well, since you haven't seen our since you didn't go see it in theaters, I will tell you that I was a shell and I did buy a popcorn bucket.

00:55:16.869 --> 00:55:20.090
I bought one of the diamond or buckets.

00:55:20.090 --> 00:55:25.510
And the cool thing was that AMC get this and you're totally going to understand this.

00:55:25.510 --> 00:55:31.070
Sixteen versions of that popcorn bucket that you can get different ores for each one.

00:55:31.070 --> 00:55:35.170
TNT dirt, all the ores, you know, whatever.

00:55:35.170 --> 00:55:51.916
And then also you could buy a combo that came with And this is sort of the interesting notch in all this is that you get the, you can pick of any of those popcorn buckets, a cup, and then also you would get a wolf plush, but you could not buy the plush by itself.

00:55:51.916 --> 00:55:54.699
You had to buy the combo in order to get the plush.

00:55:54.699 --> 00:55:55.639
And I said, fuck that.

00:55:55.639 --> 00:56:00.264
I'm never going to spend 50 bucks on a popcorn bucket, a cup and a plush.

00:56:00.264 --> 00:56:04.847
So I did not buy the, I did not get the wolf, but, God damn it.

00:56:04.847 --> 00:56:07.885
If that's not great marketing, know, like that is every.

00:56:07.885 --> 00:56:09.565
I mean, how do you say no?

00:56:09.565 --> 00:56:15.045
How do you look your 12 year old son in the eyes and go, no son, I will not get you that plush.

00:56:15.045 --> 00:56:18.945
If you really want like you go to the movies twice a year, you're not going to buy him the goddamn plush.

00:56:18.945 --> 00:56:20.045
know, yeah.

00:56:20.045 --> 00:56:22.346
Make the parents feel bad.

00:56:22.766 --> 00:56:24.485
Most of them goddamn lawns.

00:56:24.485 --> 00:56:25.166
You know what I mean?

00:56:25.166 --> 00:56:25.742
Timmy.

00:56:25.742 --> 00:56:28.302
I had to do when I wanted to go do get things.

00:56:28.302 --> 00:56:31.242
I had to go fucking snow shovel in Alaska.

00:56:32.362 --> 00:56:34.161
I'm gonna give you a roll of quarters.

00:56:34.161 --> 00:56:34.442
Okay.

00:56:34.442 --> 00:56:36.181
What do you know what I did with that roll of quarters?

00:56:36.181 --> 00:56:36.742
That's right.

00:56:36.742 --> 00:56:39.001
I counted them to make sure the money was accurate.

00:56:39.001 --> 00:56:41.202
That's what it was.

00:56:41.202 --> 00:56:47.061
a he was a bitch with a a clean driveway.

00:56:48.322 --> 00:56:50.753
I fucking cared about We had to test the court.

00:56:50.753 --> 00:56:56.969
We had to test the corn if we wanted shit back in the day You chuck corn for money, Timmy.

00:56:57.746 --> 00:57:18.346
All right, let's fucking round this thing out at a five David Weiner's Aaron and again, this is a very improv to episode everybody We didn't go into all the minutiae All right, you know what final thoughts real quick before we review before we give it a rating final thoughts on the Minecraft movie I would actually, I would actually watch this again.

00:57:18.784 --> 00:57:22.829
I would hope so based on the version you watched.

00:57:23.054 --> 00:57:25.313
I'm telling you, like, I don't I wouldn't I don't need to.

00:57:25.313 --> 00:57:33.442
I would watch it again just for my own, like for my own desire to see more of what the world has to offer.

00:57:35.423 --> 00:57:44.201
also, like I said, what is interesting about this that I did not anticipate being kind of the outcome is that I actually have the desire to play more of the game.

00:57:44.201 --> 00:57:45.672
Hmm.

00:57:46.632 --> 00:58:00.715
You know, sure, it made me feel like there is like, again, I overall the which was very lost in the movie, the message to me stood out and like it was like, this is, this is a world for everyone.

00:58:00.715 --> 00:58:04.568
This is a world for creativity, which I think we do need more of.

00:58:04.568 --> 00:58:06.161
need more creativity in the world.

00:58:06.161 --> 00:58:07.391
We need more acceptance.

00:58:07.391 --> 00:58:12.836
We need more, embracing what is different between us all and what makes us unique.

00:58:12.836 --> 00:58:18.925
And I think that that was a message that was kind of put out in this film, but not executed very well.

00:58:18.925 --> 00:58:19.905
Agreed.

00:58:19.905 --> 00:58:22.485
Like I see that that was the message.

00:58:22.545 --> 00:58:26.306
And did they follow through and like, did they really bring that?

00:58:26.545 --> 00:58:31.166
That's debatable, you know, but it is a good message, right?

00:58:31.166 --> 00:58:37.934
Like we all should definitely, you know, lead with creativity, lead with empathy, all the things.

00:58:37.934 --> 00:58:39.574
Do you, I want to ask you something real quick.

00:58:39.574 --> 00:58:43.253
Do you think, and I think this is something that I would like to see.

00:58:43.253 --> 00:59:01.353
Um, so in the past, when like with the MCU and, people getting upset about things like spoilers online, know, we've had actually like celebrities and movie companies and like social media accounts popping up and saying like, do you like, please no spoilers.

00:59:01.353 --> 00:59:03.253
Like let's respect the fans.

00:59:03.253 --> 00:59:06.565
Let's respect each other and no spoilers online, et cetera.

00:59:07.320 --> 00:59:14.570
Do you think that we're going to potentially see like the same with people being respectful in movie theaters?

00:59:15.177 --> 00:59:16.077
No.

00:59:16.438 --> 00:59:21.222
And also I just think like the spoilery part of the internet is always going to exist.

00:59:21.222 --> 00:59:22.202
It always has.

00:59:22.202 --> 00:59:25.304
It's just that we all have, we're just on the internet more now.

00:59:25.304 --> 00:59:26.164
You know what mean?

00:59:26.164 --> 00:59:27.896
So like that's not going away.

00:59:27.896 --> 00:59:29.987
I don't think so.

00:59:31.027 --> 00:59:31.708
One can hope.

00:59:31.708 --> 00:59:33.809
And honestly, I was just telling Olivia this earlier today.

00:59:33.809 --> 00:59:37.592
I think my views on spoilers have just changed over time.

00:59:37.592 --> 00:59:45.559
Like obviously I like to go in spoiler free, but if I get spoiled, Aaron, unfortunately, this is the cross that we bear being in this sort of.

00:59:45.559 --> 01:00:03.277
I I meant also like I understand like that's kind of a you're always gonna have spoilers But I mean like them saying things like act right in a theater gotcha act like it like act like an adult act like like don't go Please don't go to the theater and like lose your mind like let people enjoy the movie becoming trendy I wish they would do that.

01:00:03.277 --> 01:00:13.273
But unfortunately, I think where we're at in the movie going experience, big movie companies outside of Alamo can't enforce that right now.

01:00:13.273 --> 01:00:13.934
Right?

01:00:13.934 --> 01:00:15.985
Like they could, but they're going to lose people.

01:00:15.985 --> 01:00:20.378
And right now the movie theater is suffering to a point where they just, they will take anyone.

01:00:20.378 --> 01:00:20.947
You know what mean?

01:00:20.947 --> 01:00:26.322
Like they're, maybe they'll kick people out in the moment, but they're not going to be like, Hey, don't come in here and not talk.

01:00:26.322 --> 01:00:35.831
Cause then There's always going to be idiots that either press that and make it like there's a movement of contrarians, especially young people, because they refuse to like be law abiding citizens.

01:00:35.913 --> 01:00:42.947
You eventually learn that as you get older, they'll just go in like it'll be a trend to like go to the movie and piss on somebody in the movie theater.

01:00:42.947 --> 01:00:45.268
Like that'll be a thing if they tell everyone to be quiet in a movie.

01:00:45.268 --> 01:00:46.239
You know what mean?

01:00:46.239 --> 01:00:52.744
So they kind of have to just like take it for now until movie theaters figure it out somehow.

01:00:52.744 --> 01:00:53.704
I don't know.

01:00:53.784 --> 01:00:55.135
I wish it would change.

01:00:55.329 --> 01:00:56.534
This could be the downfall.

01:00:56.534 --> 01:00:57.494
It could be.

01:00:57.494 --> 01:00:59.835
We're like in it, think currently, which is a bummer.

01:00:59.835 --> 01:01:07.639
But that's why we have to have people like us who will tell little kids to tell little Timmy to shut your fucking mouth in the movie theater.

01:01:08.179 --> 01:01:11.360
Look them in the face, point at their face and go, fuck you.

01:01:11.360 --> 01:01:12.681
Turn your phone off.

01:01:12.681 --> 01:01:13.192
Give me that.

01:01:13.192 --> 01:01:14.271
Give me your phone.

01:01:15.085 --> 01:01:21.606
This is last time I'm going to tell you to stop screaming.

01:01:21.793 --> 01:01:22.434
You see this?

01:01:22.434 --> 01:01:23.436
You see this right here?

01:01:23.436 --> 01:01:25.280
This is your fucking life in my hands.

01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:25.561
Yeah.

01:01:25.561 --> 01:01:26.842
I will crush you.

01:01:27.485 --> 01:01:32.773
I will injure you think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face where I'm wearing these bad boys?

01:01:32.773 --> 01:01:33.753
I think so.

01:01:33.753 --> 01:01:34.873
You think I go to home?

01:01:34.873 --> 01:01:37.114
I go home to Darla Starlet night.

01:01:37.114 --> 01:01:38.534
All right.

01:01:38.849 --> 01:01:41.072
Grab me with your arm, your other arm.

01:01:41.134 --> 01:01:42.802
My other wrist.

01:01:42.802 --> 01:01:43.442
wrist.

01:01:44.282 --> 01:01:48.521
You got to grab the wrist, walk away, break the wrist, walk away.

01:01:49.742 --> 01:01:50.661
All right.

01:01:50.661 --> 01:01:51.961
Let's rate this thing.

01:01:51.961 --> 01:01:52.902
Five, five David Weiner's.

01:01:52.902 --> 01:01:54.782
And what are you going to give the Minecraft movie?

01:01:56.161 --> 01:02:01.782
Same two is what I will give the Minecraft movie that feels about right.

01:02:01.782 --> 01:02:03.717
Is it your least favorite movie of the year?

01:02:06.072 --> 01:02:08.480
So far, think so.

01:02:08.480 --> 01:02:09.777
I got to rate it on my letterbox.

01:02:09.777 --> 01:02:11.146
was actually pulling up letterbox right now.

01:02:11.146 --> 01:02:14.557
I think it's my third least favorite movie.

01:02:14.557 --> 01:02:19.507
Aaron, what do you think the two movies are that I don't like more than the Minecraft movie?

01:02:21.090 --> 01:02:22.492
You should know one of them.

01:02:23.719 --> 01:02:25.382
Brave New World is definitely one of them.

01:02:26.541 --> 01:02:27.489
I don't know the other one.

01:02:27.489 --> 01:02:28.773
The electric state.

01:02:30.286 --> 01:02:32.710
si, si, si, si senor.

01:02:33.215 --> 01:02:36.356
Can I tell you that I watched black bag last night?

01:02:36.996 --> 01:02:37.677
How was that?

01:02:37.677 --> 01:02:39.036
Very, very good.

01:02:39.358 --> 01:02:40.057
Very good.

01:02:40.057 --> 01:02:40.429
Everyone.

01:02:40.429 --> 01:02:52.434
If you, if you're, if you want to like a palate cleanser, if you've went and seen the Minecraft movie and you need some fucking cinema with a capital C, go watch Steven Soderbergh's brand new spy thriller black bag.

01:02:52.434 --> 01:02:52.905
It's very good.

01:02:52.905 --> 01:02:53.885
It's quick.

01:02:54.186 --> 01:03:01.429
it's got a clay, Kate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender and it's super smart, super sexy.

01:03:01.742 --> 01:03:07.226
and there are no square headed wolves and Jennifer Coolidge is not trying to fuck anyone in this movie.

01:03:07.226 --> 01:03:12.889
So, you know, there are some downfalls I can't deny, but I will say that it's a good movie.

01:03:12.889 --> 01:03:14.972
So, Aaron, did you, did you figure it out?

01:03:14.972 --> 01:03:18.664
What is this your least favorite one of the movie or at least favorite of the year?

01:03:21.505 --> 01:03:23.485
Did you like this more than the electric state?

01:03:24.266 --> 01:03:25.668
I haven't rated.

01:03:25.668 --> 01:03:38.248
So to be honest, my worst movie this far thus far this year is back in action with Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz.

01:03:39.177 --> 01:03:41.469
that's something that I just look right past.

01:03:41.731 --> 01:03:44.014
Like I don't even want to look at it.

01:03:44.014 --> 01:03:45.275
And also I don't have Netflix anymore.

01:03:45.275 --> 01:03:45.996
So, but I get it.

01:03:45.996 --> 01:03:48.318
I get why that would be a thing.

01:03:49.501 --> 01:03:50.143
Yeah.

01:03:50.143 --> 01:03:51.123
Okay.

01:03:51.625 --> 01:03:53.106
That's your least favorite though.

01:03:53.483 --> 01:03:54.148
my least favorite.

01:03:54.148 --> 01:03:56.307
gave that one a one and a half stars.

01:03:58.088 --> 01:03:58.751
All right.

01:03:58.751 --> 01:03:59.222
All right.

01:03:59.222 --> 01:04:02.190
Anything else before we get out of here on Minecraft?

01:04:02.190 --> 01:04:07.119
trying to see if there's anything else that I might have given less to, I.

01:04:07.119 --> 01:04:09.682
you think of the music really quickly music wise in this movie?

01:04:09.682 --> 01:04:14.217
Did you like Jack Black's, you know, tune?

01:04:14.759 --> 01:04:15.739
like one for chicken.

01:04:15.739 --> 01:04:17.320
You did one at the end of the movie.

01:04:17.550 --> 01:04:18.449
Yeah.

01:04:19.289 --> 01:04:19.690
Um...

01:04:19.690 --> 01:04:20.989
It was an...

01:04:20.989 --> 01:04:21.949
I didn't think it was too bad.

01:04:21.949 --> 01:04:22.893
It was entertaining.

01:04:22.893 --> 01:04:27.134
It's, it comes with the territory of having Jack Black in a movie and I'm fine with it.

01:04:27.134 --> 01:04:30.594
It hasn't wore sour on me yet.

01:04:31.713 --> 01:04:34.693
I will say that I found it really interesting at the end of the movie.

01:04:34.693 --> 01:04:41.813
Cause I stayed for the credits, course, Dave Grohl of food fighters was credited as a, guitarist of I feel alive.

01:04:42.454 --> 01:04:45.445
So, interesting stuff.

01:04:45.887 --> 01:04:47.021
interesting.

01:04:47.478 --> 01:04:47.927
All righty.

01:04:47.927 --> 01:04:50.400
Well, I think that'll do it for our review of Minecraft.

01:04:50.400 --> 01:04:51.010
Everybody again.

01:04:51.010 --> 01:04:51.411
Sorry.

01:04:51.411 --> 01:04:55.925
This isn't like a true like review like we normally do, but it is something.

01:04:55.925 --> 01:05:01.349
And we hope that that we put as much effort into this review as the filmmakers of this film put in.

01:05:01.349 --> 01:05:04.972
So there were five screenwriters on this movie.

01:05:06.153 --> 01:05:07.465
And as we know, that's never good.

01:05:07.465 --> 01:05:08.856
That's never a good sign.

01:05:09.237 --> 01:05:10.847
So all right, that'll do it.

01:05:10.847 --> 01:05:14.670
Make sure you guys go check out our conversation with Aubrey Sidderson.

01:05:14.670 --> 01:05:15.980
We just released it.

01:05:15.980 --> 01:05:21.893
I'm guessing a couple I haven't put this out yet, but a couple days before releasing this review of Minecraft.

01:05:21.893 --> 01:05:24.101
So check that out.

01:05:24.101 --> 01:05:27.934
And then next week we are doing a battle Royale battle round number six.

01:05:27.934 --> 01:05:30.815
So go check that out when it eventually comes out.

01:05:30.815 --> 01:05:42.780
So Aaron is, I think as we're releasing this air will be on his way to Las Vegas, but we will eventually get back together and do a little battle, do a little BR, you know, we'll be our action.

01:05:42.780 --> 01:05:45.362
So Aaron, anything you want to say before we head out?

01:05:46.293 --> 01:05:51.974
I think I appreciate everybody tolerating this review.

01:05:51.974 --> 01:05:57.275
I feel like, you know, we're going to do our best to, you know, I know that some people may love this.

01:05:57.275 --> 01:06:01.268
They may hate, hate what we have said about this film.

01:06:01.568 --> 01:06:04.891
And I understand that.

01:06:05.472 --> 01:06:06.634
I hear you.

01:06:06.634 --> 01:06:10.757
I see you, but we need to do better.

01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:12.653
We need to do better everybody.

01:06:14.141 --> 01:06:15.764
Hollywood needs to do better.

01:06:16.289 --> 01:06:18.271
with the audience members.

01:06:19.536 --> 01:06:26.215
I walk into the movie theaters now and hold up a sign that says, please for the love of God, shut the fuck up.

01:06:26.487 --> 01:06:29.885
We should make sure it says to say in the movies, shut your fucking mouth.

01:06:29.885 --> 01:06:31.737
And on the back of the ability.

01:06:32.204 --> 01:06:36.043
Yeah! Shut your fucking mouth, yeah.

01:06:36.043 --> 01:06:37.416
Yeah, I love it.

01:06:37.416 --> 01:06:38.213
I love it.

01:06:38.213 --> 01:06:38.958
I want.

01:06:38.958 --> 01:06:41.483
I'm designing it as we speak everybody.

01:06:41.483 --> 01:06:41.804
Yes.

01:06:41.804 --> 01:06:44.581
I'll that immediately.

01:06:45.838 --> 01:06:46.257
All right, everybody.

01:06:46.257 --> 01:06:47.498
Thank you so much for listening.

01:06:47.498 --> 01:06:50.760
We will see you here soon.

01:06:50.760 --> 01:06:52.880
Sometime later this week, I'm sure.

01:06:52.880 --> 01:06:59.233
We also have a conversation with Matt Yokum coming up, former Air Force Colonel turned comic book writer.

01:06:59.233 --> 01:07:01.344
So be on the lookout for that as well.

01:07:01.344 --> 01:07:06.896
And Kurt Peier is coming on to the show here in just a bit talking about lost fantasy over at Image Comics.

01:07:06.896 --> 01:07:08.226
So be on the lookout.

01:07:08.226 --> 01:07:09.867
Thank you all so much for listening to this episode.

01:07:09.867 --> 01:07:12.588
This improv, improv to improv.

01:07:12.588 --> 01:07:15.340
I guess it was both improv to and all the things.

01:07:15.340 --> 01:07:16.498
Both those things.

01:07:17.014 --> 01:07:25.170
I do have, don't know if this is going to happen, but I did get an invite here in New York to see a screening of Drop.

01:07:29.210 --> 01:07:32.650
is, basically it's a woman.

01:07:32.650 --> 01:07:35.992
She goes on like a blind date and she's at dinner.

01:07:35.992 --> 01:07:43.873
The somebody starts texting her about, know, like, Hey, you need to kill your date or we're going to kill your kids and people in this restaurant that you're in.

01:07:43.873 --> 01:07:44.474
Yep.

01:07:44.474 --> 01:07:50.302
and what it reminds me of is there was a movie that came out recently with Taryn Egerton.

01:07:50.302 --> 01:07:57.777
I think that's Edgerton and I'm trying to look it up real quick because I do not remember the name.

01:07:58.423 --> 01:08:01.873
But it was, he was like a TSA agent.

01:08:01.898 --> 01:08:02.893
that's, that was the one on Netflix.

01:08:02.893 --> 01:08:03.204
Yeah.

01:08:03.204 --> 01:08:03.965
Yep.

01:08:04.750 --> 01:08:08.782
And it reminds me of that because it's like, it's like the same thing.

01:08:08.782 --> 01:08:14.375
Like there's like a, know, somebody starts messaging them and they've got to do something without knowing.

01:08:14.976 --> 01:08:15.476
Carry on.

01:08:15.476 --> 01:08:15.766
Yeah.

01:08:15.766 --> 01:08:16.006
Yeah.

01:08:16.006 --> 01:08:16.417
Yeah.

01:08:16.417 --> 01:08:18.478
Carry on my way.

01:08:18.485 --> 01:08:20.957
I was really excited about carry on and I watched it.

01:08:20.957 --> 01:08:25.431
It was actually the last Netflix movie I watched and that was like the nail in the coffin for me.

01:08:25.431 --> 01:08:28.132
It was like, OK, I think I can get rid of Netflix now.

01:08:28.185 --> 01:08:30.326
I think I think we're good.

01:08:30.326 --> 01:08:34.457
Yeah, it's been a good run, everybody on Netflix, but we're done.

01:08:34.759 --> 01:08:35.918
You're done.

01:08:36.119 --> 01:08:37.060
All right.

01:08:38.042 --> 01:08:39.841
I have one it up.

01:08:41.684 --> 01:08:42.204
You're done.

01:08:42.204 --> 01:08:43.065
All right, we're done.

01:08:43.065 --> 01:08:44.065
Everybody.

01:08:45.407 --> 01:08:46.148
We'll see you later.

01:08:46.148 --> 01:08:46.908
Thank you so much for listening.

01:08:46.908 --> 01:08:47.948
Bye.
