[00:00:00] And welcome to episode 576 of the Pittsburgh Nerd Podcast I'm Sean and I'm Ian and this is the only podcast that says Fuck it's hot. Oh my god, dude It is burling I
[00:00:36] The week before we didn't I didn't delve into it because we were we talked about so much other stuff But like that week it was in the 90s was brutal But this week it's okay, you know cooler temperatures in the high 80s
[00:00:53] Human is fuck. Yeah, I mean human it is It's brutal out it is I I just can't even Like just stepping outside it feels like someone's throwing a fucking warm-ass blanket on you it does It's a warm-ass wet blanket. Oh
[00:01:19] So fucking humid and the rain's not helping no when it rains it just it's it's like This is like coast heat. Yeah, and then wearing just comes down and everything just steams and it becomes even worse Because it's so fucking hot all day, right?
[00:01:36] And apparently that they're saying like tornado alley has moved Okay, I saw this somewhere like studies are determining like and like we're like in like the northern tip of it now. Yeah And so I mean Wednesday
[00:01:54] We had some pretty brutal weather apparently I said apparently because I didn't know yeah I'm watching a movie Not realizing my life is apparently in intimate danger Like and Nancy's texted me like hey, how bad is the storm there? I'm like, it's raining a little bit
[00:02:15] I don't know right you know and Well she calls me and asked me like hey, can you can you set up the recorder channel for news? My boss's house was damaged and they interviewed her. Mm-hmm Wow really it was that bad there. It's like yeah
[00:02:35] It was like almost a tornado here or something showing Okay, whatever. I'll set a timer So she comes home and we're watching the recording of the news and there's her boss and then they show like Like some
[00:02:51] Local yahoo and they're like and this is footage from White Oak And there's like trees like bending all the way over and stuff and she's like I thought you said wasn't bad here I'm like I didn't look outside. Yeah, I heard a little rain. I didn't you know
[00:03:07] Like there's a reporter like three blocks down for me like talking about down power lines and trees blocking roads. I'm like Had no clue Crazy You know I'm watching the Nichols Cage movie No clue about the die possibly Yeah, it's so
[00:03:32] Weird it is and this is like hot for this time of year. I mean this We don't generally get This type of weather tool mid-August late July Yeah, I was a mid-July like June especially early June It's always rainy right
[00:03:57] But then you get midway through June and it starts to warm up but the humidity doesn't kick in until like July right and the humid I got and I knew like we had that stretch I want to say it was an early May, right
[00:04:20] Where it was like we're mid-May even I think it was where it was like 85 degrees and like a hundred percent humidity and I just I'm refusing to put air conditioners
[00:04:31] I'm like it's it's may right. It's too fucking soon. You know just sit in front of a fan. You'll be fine, you know Eventually, you know we end up putting in the uh
[00:04:44] The air conditioner by the time I put in the air conditioner they cool off again, but you had that like Week week and a half stretch in May where it was like brutally hot And then it kind of came back now and I'm just like
[00:04:59] Like I'm a type of guy like I Will not run my air conditioner unless I absolutely have to in my car, right? and I've had to run the air conditioner in my car and I'm like this is just too fucking you you came and sit comfortably I know
[00:05:18] No, you can't Like I have no problem like if it's warm. I'm like fine. I'll be warm. I can handle that. Yeah, but This is too much. Yeah, it's so much to do anything
[00:05:31] It sucks for me too because I like to hike so much. Yeah, I will not hike in this. No, I don't like it. I just You know everybody says summer summer. I was like, yeah, I just don't like hiking and I
[00:05:46] Mean where I hike is usually trail covered, right? So right and Like the Sun doesn't beat down you. I'm in the woods, right? You know at the same point the humidity so bad that yeah, it doesn't matter even if you get close to the water it gets even
[00:06:01] Hot yeah, you know what I mean. Oh, yeah, and so it's It's uh, it's just miserable like if it's if it's 90 degrees You know and there's no humidity
[00:06:16] It's actually cooling. It's refreshing to go for a walk in the woods because you're all that tree cover blocks out that song Right, it's usually a 10 degree difference. Yeah, it's completely different But humidity humidity like tree cover doesn't doesn't keep you away from humidity
[00:06:31] No, you just sweat your ass off. Yeah, and so makes you sick. Yeah, you're losing so much water. Yeah, you know but um Yeah, anyway, so yeah, I don't move my grass on I
[00:06:44] Move my grass Wednesday morning before all the all hell broke loose. Yeah, and I was just I mean, I'm gonna have you sweater to begin with like I mean, you know But like it was like really coming off of me. I was just like
[00:06:59] Man, this is I'd put I kept putting it needed to be done I kept putting it off. Yeah because of the heat As I was fine, I was just like well, this is probably the coolest day
[00:07:10] I'm gonna get I'm gonna go out there and do it right now get it done and You know the whole time I'm doing it. I'm just like This is brutal. Yeah Brutal. Yeah So how have you been sir? I'm good. Yeah, yeah I
[00:07:34] Watched anything of interest. I finished discovery What do you think of that? I liked it. I thought it was a good I thought it was done. Well, yeah, I really got into the captain Number one
[00:07:53] Oh, like the yeah that guy yeah, the dude got a broad end to replace the room. Yeah, I liked it I like them a lot too. Yeah, I liked his arc. Yeah, you know what I mean?
[00:08:05] One of the reasons I was bummed out that they're that was the end was like, okay You give me this new very interesting character on to see how he develops further. Yeah, all right, you know, yeah
[00:08:17] Yeah, I liked him a lot. Yeah, I thought I liked his arc Yeah, like how he was such a dick and then yeah, and the season was good. It was interesting. It made sense You know what I mean? Yeah, I liked it. That was good. I was good
[00:08:32] I like I liked how it ended. I liked how What? No, not book. Oh The mysterious guy the I can't think of his name the guy was the director. Oh, yeah
[00:09:00] The um my god, it's okay. I can't remember. I can't even name who guys are plays director. Huh? He's a horror director. Yeah But any Him like his run and Berg Cronenberg. Yeah Cronenberg's character. Yeah. Yeah, thank you. I loved how they tied him in I
[00:09:24] Don't know if you would have caught this because I don't think you watch the series but like with like enterprise Yeah, like he was like in that show
[00:09:34] And they mentioned I think in like in the beginning of season three about the temporal wars because time travel is illegal Yeah, and the temporal wars go back to like the the The enterprise show was Scott vacula and there was a guy his name was Daniels
[00:09:54] There was a time traveler fighting in the temporal wars and the enterprise and the formation of the Federation was a major point that certain People in the future and in the past because of the the temporal aspect were trying to prevent from happening. Yeah, and
[00:10:14] So the fact that they kind of tied Cronenberg's character So that's who that who that was yeah, I found very very interesting. Yeah You know, and that's why he has Paper I know I thought that was very interesting
[00:10:30] Yeah, I thought the paper pad was interesting. Yeah, you know, like in all of this technology He's still pencil and paper guy. Yeah, you know, and it was stuff like that that I you know
[00:10:43] So I found his character even more interesting as that season went on like he was already kind of like ooh I want his Cronenberg. Yeah, you know, but two It's just that
[00:10:58] The mystery of that character had around them and the fact that they kind of solved that by tying him into that character from Star Trek Enterprise I found very interesting and I kind of liked it and I wanted to like
[00:11:11] I'm hoping he's in the section 31 movie. I'm sure he will but like I Just found that character very cool. Yeah, he was pretty interesting. Yeah, I mean in Cronenberg played him so well yeah
[00:11:25] Yeah, it was a good show it was is a very good show like one misstep of the season Yeah, like season even season three I guess a lot of redeemable aspects to just the ending was just such a
[00:11:39] A stinky turd. Yeah, there's a lot of good stuff in season three that I enjoyed Because you're coming into the future, right? You know, you're coming Yeah, so they can play the technology a little bit some of it. I like some of it
[00:11:51] I didn't like I did not care for them to attach the cells. Yeah, like I just seemed dumb to me Yeah, but there were other things I did like and I Thought it was a very well done and I thought that it's a show that
[00:12:07] And to me really well done. I yeah, it lived up to the Star Trek Reputation and more. Yeah, I think I really like Saru's character. Yeah And his whole arc Do you know what I mean?
[00:12:24] I just I love the character of Saru. Yeah, the way he was playing his body language. Yeah The way that he looks like He really like Doug Jones crush is amazing. Yeah, right and I'm glad he was a center character. Yeah
[00:12:43] He deserved it. Absolutely. Yes, and he almost became more of a center character than She yeah, you know like I just really liked it. I really liked the development between him and the Vulcan. Yeah It was just and I liked how she thought outside the box
[00:13:05] Yeah, because Vulcans don't usually think outside of the box. No, do you know what I mean? Yeah, and like she went outside of the box and fell in love with someone that you know, they made Yeah, just made sense. Yeah, so but But I really like Saru
[00:13:23] Even even when he's walking down the hallway. Yeah the way like those arms float and everything. Yeah, it's amazing to stay in character Yeah, I mean that's like any worthy stuff there. I mean he's acting so well Just by his movements, right and then he's acting
[00:13:42] Phenomaly right but then just the slight head turn and you can see his eyes blank or You know, like it's just really well, which was one of the highlights of the end of season three When you saw Doug Jones
[00:13:57] Yes, and he kept those mannerisms. Yeah the way Saru walked. Yeah, which I Can understand how like being in makeup It might be just a slight bit easier to stay in character with those mannerisms and stuff. Yeah, but he was
[00:14:12] Completely out of makeup and he kept those mannerisms with the way Saru walked and everything it was like Doug Jones is just He's probably one of the most under appreciated actors because he is under makeup so much, right? You know, he's a guy who
[00:14:32] Like I go back to like the way he looked in Hellboy and the way he played that character in Hellboy So good, right? Yeah, you know, like as much as like you were like hell boys the guy Abe was like the heart and soul. Yeah
[00:14:48] You know, yeah, like in very in many ways like, you know, and he was so good at as Abe and like it was like
[00:14:57] It was he's just he's been in so much other stuff and you know, you think about like how like Guillermo del Toro used him and Pan's labrath yeah and the way he portrayed Yeah He's one of those people who like this take any art of
[00:15:19] Like being under heavy makeup and heavy prosthetic and Made it into an art form. Yeah, like he really has he's taken it to a whole nother level and it makes you appreciate what he does More than like what like stop motion actors do yeah
[00:15:46] But at the same time I don't want to take anything away. So there have been like you think a golem golem is like the To me like the high watermark. I guess what everybody has to live up to when you're doing that type of acting Right, you know
[00:16:00] But Doug Jones has taken like prosthetics Anyway, you act under a prosthetic to a completely different level that I don't think anybody's ever gonna touch Yeah, he's just an amazing actor. Yeah, I watched a few things this week. Okay? I need the one who'll be most interested in
[00:16:26] is I watched a documentary on Disney plus Called Jim Henson idea man. Yeah, how was that? It was very good. Was it yeah Sorry, I don't understand Anyway, I Like I mean, I thought it was a very well done documentary. I thought it was directed by Ron Howard
[00:16:54] Okay, I thought they did a very good job of Of like kind of covering Who Jim Henson was yeah and Like what what honestly is his legacy? Yeah, like what? But also like I
[00:17:20] Mean it didn't delve deep into it and even like the family members were like, you know, he was Jim You know, I like but yeah, I mean You know his wife stuck it out as long as she could and then they ended up getting divorced
[00:17:35] And it was because he was he was driven. He was he was at work. Yeah when he wasn't at work He was at work. Yeah, you know he I Feel like his kids Maybe appreciated it and a little bit more later on yeah, like
[00:17:56] Like Brian talked about working on labrath. I was like his first time working on on a anything yeah, and He talked about like I Wasn't working with my dad. I was working with Jim and it was a completely different experience
[00:18:15] Then being around my dad. Yeah, because I was around Jim. Yeah, Jim wasn't work Yeah, you know, this is what we did and it was I
[00:18:28] Think you enjoy it like I don't think there's gonna be anything comes out of it. You're gonna be like, oh, that's new information I didn't know that because you know a lot more about Henson than I do. Yeah
[00:18:38] But I thought I did a good job of really tackling like the early days of what? Sabine rent but tackling the early days of like building that Group yeah, the the stuff that they were doing in the early days
[00:19:00] Before the Sesame Street before the Muppet show. Yeah, you know everything it kind of led up to to that point Yeah But I mean like it's one of those rare times where you get like like Frank Oz talking about His friend doesn't do that much anymore
[00:19:20] Yeah, like as far as like talking about like those days. Yeah, and he was you know He was pretty open and I mean, you know, it was I enjoyed I just I enjoyed it. It's like two hours
[00:19:32] And it was a very very well done documentary that kind of covered a Lot of territory in that two hours. Yeah, you know and I still rolled a tear They were showing like the funeral Mm-hmm, and I remember big birds singing it. It's not easy being green. Yeah
[00:19:54] And I still was rolling a tear. Oh wow Cuz you know Yeah, cuz how much like Jim Henson meant Toss. Yeah, you know, I mean like it's that thing like I don't think people can truly Understand like
[00:20:15] But it was it was like I grew up on Sesame Street. Yeah, you know and then I transitioned to the Muppet show and Then the movies and then you know the dark crystal and labrath and like You know all these things that were like
[00:20:33] What other people would consider what's an oddity? It's like, you know It's David Bowie's giant cod piece and shit like that But it was like for us for you and I that was a major part of our childhood
[00:20:45] Yeah, yeah, like as much as we always talk about like you know Star Wars is home. That's where it all starts It probably really starts with Jim Henson. Yeah You know, you know that goes from there. Yeah So Like I know it's Pittsburgh glass for me, but
[00:21:04] Jim Henson is probably more important to my childhood than mr. Rogers is oh, yeah Oh, yeah, for sure, you know and I mean and that's that's Pittsburgh blast for me
[00:21:14] If you say that to somebody around here, they'll like, you know, how dare you but it but it's true Like I was more influenced by curtain the Muppets and you know, right? I appreciated mr. Rogers. I understand what mr. Rogers was but you know
[00:21:30] You compared his puppets to Henson's Muppets Nighting day night and day. I got sorry it is like King King Friday wasn't that cool I'd be only the only truly cool puppet that Fred had was Daniel stripe Tiger. Yeah, you know
[00:21:48] You know, and then there was Lady Elaine. Yeah, you know in that horror show So like yeah, I was more influenced by Kurt Kermit and the Count and Burton Ernie And I ever was by mr. Rogers neighborhood. Let's not forget
[00:22:06] Amon orders. Oh, yeah, I'm an orders drug ban Christmas which they that was the only thing I was bummed out about they glazed over Okay, there were two things I was bummed out. They kind of glazed there one was emin Otter and two
[00:22:20] Was the working relationship Jim had with Paul Williams? Okay, cuz I mean and you know I mean a lot the majority of those songs especially like when I'm an Otter and I know in The Muppet movie. Mm-hmm like those songs were Paul Williams. Yeah, and
[00:22:41] So he has a major Influence as well When it comes to that stuff like right all that music was Paul Williams music So they had a collaboration that I was surprised it kind of got glazed like didn't even get touched on right and
[00:23:00] And then Otter was done before the Muppet movie As like a proof of concept that you could do it. Yeah, I guess was Jim trying to prove Okay, we can do a Muppet movie here and
[00:23:16] The M. Otter's Jug Band Christmas is going to be the proof that we could do that So like to me M and Otter's Jug Band Christmas is very very important not just because of how much I love it But because it was a proof of concept like
[00:23:31] Leading up to the crystal. Yeah. Well, no lead leading up to just the Muppet movie. I am Because the Muppet move like The thing with the Muppet movie was it was like how can you make this work for an hour and a half?
[00:23:45] Right hours like there's no way Like Muppets can can hold the screen that long, right? Because even like the Muppet show is only 30 minutes, right? So like for for
[00:24:00] To like create the stages create like the the minute like if you watch M and Otter the minute details that go into like The houses in the background and the people moving and like all the little subtle things that make that come alive
[00:24:18] Are more intricate than anything they were doing on the Muppet show, right? And So that was part of it like you know from a just from a production standpoint. Can we make this all work?
[00:24:30] Well, yes, it would be hard work, but it can be done and this is how right like, you know There are some amazing like intricacies To edit Otter's drug van Christmas like especially with the backgrounds and stuff that make it not look
[00:24:46] Stagnant, right that there's actual like you you watch that excuse me and you believe there are people Living in those houses, right? You know, I mean like So it's stuff like that that they were trying to prove we can translate lists over
[00:25:05] And do a full-blown movie on yeah And not just a 22 minute show right so but it's a very well done documentary So I watched that and I watched The Nicholas Cage movie I was watching as I almost died
[00:25:27] Was the unbearable weight of massive talent? Okay, I don't know if you're familiar with that or not The entire concept of the movie is Nicholas Cage is playing himself. Okay He's broke. Okay, which that's Nicholas Cage, right?
[00:25:47] So he takes a job to go to some guy's birthday party for a million dollars In Spain, okay all expenses paid Well, it turns out that the guy is suspected to be a saw this in arms. Okay. Yeah, you saw that was
[00:26:05] Pedro Pascal, yeah, it was good. It was phenomenal. Yeah, it was good movie Yeah, it's good. I enjoyed that highlight movie. Yeah, it was good Sorry, I didn't mean to burst your bubble. No, you're fine. I'm glad you saw it. Yeah, yeah
[00:26:22] Yeah, it's pretty good. Yeah, I enjoyed it. Yeah, I enjoyed the hell out of that. I thought it was phenomenal Cage was fantastic. Yeah So watch that I watched season two of that 90s show that was really good Uh-huh. Well, I mean
[00:26:45] It's the same is the same humor is like that 70s show only in the 90s so I and I love that 70s show so This is just a continuation with some of the same characters and I'm enjoying a hell out of it. Yeah there was that
[00:27:04] And then I watched Godzilla minus one you watch it again. Yeah, it's on Netflix now. So I watched it Yeah, it was still phenomenal. Yeah I don't think you're here super fan of that did not care for it. Yeah
[00:27:22] He said he doesn't like when Godzilla's the bad guy. I mean his root is he's a bad guy Yeah, you know, like I get like I and I'm not gonna blast that like It's not for everybody. I understand that and I'm certainly not gonna like you know
[00:27:44] If you like when super when Godzilla's like the hero and good when Godzilla's like the protector of children like in the 60s Like I get that like I because that was like that was my introduction to Godzilla
[00:27:55] Yeah, it wasn't until much later on I went back and watch the original movie. I was like oh My god, you know destructor. Yeah So I get it to an extent but like I felt like this is a phenomenal movie that like
[00:28:11] It was just as good the second time watching it. Okay Like I don't know what I might it might become there. I watch on a yearly basis because it is it's a deep movie and it's not like
[00:28:26] Like I can watch like the monster-verse movies at any time because it's it's fluff. Yeah, it's I mean those are absolute fluff movies Yeah, you know, but that Movie is a little bit more. I did not enjoy I told you I went and saw the latest King Kong
[00:28:42] Good Kong ex-gaz or gazelle ex-con. Yeah, I couldn't get into it. Really? Yeah, that's disappointing I don't know why I just couldn't maybe I'll give it another shot Well, it's good. It's coming on HBO Max this week. I think
[00:28:56] You know, I'll give it a shot. I just I couldn't get into it. Yeah Yeah, it's good Yeah, that that's coming out this week. I also saw This week, I think it's it's Wednesday July 3rd the new
[00:29:16] Beverly Hills caught movie drops on Netflix really. Yeah, nice. Yeah, so I'll be watching that Yeah, and I watched and what else? Shit Lost I was getting ready to tell you. Yeah Something coming out Can't think of it. Well, yeah, the other thing I watched
[00:29:44] Oh, the new season of the Bears come out. Yeah, it's out. Yeah, I saw that was dropping on yeah I think I dropped the whole thing. Yeah, I think so. Yeah And also I watched just a little whim
[00:29:59] Because it seemed like a good idea at the time I rewatched the aliens Okay Which cut um, I think it was the original cut Because it was missing quite a bit that I remembered. Yeah, I was like
[00:30:13] Hold on a second here. So I think this was like the original cut. It was on HBO Max Max Such a good movie Yeah, I get they didn't have any of like the um, I thought this was in the original cut too
[00:30:29] But I was wrong apparently like with the drones In the hallway. Yeah, like firing at the because it just ends up like They seal everything off and then like Hudson's like I got movement man. Yeah, you know, it was like, you know, they're in the ceiling
[00:30:50] But they never had that scene where like they had the drones With like the Like the 200 rounds or whatever. Yeah in the hallways. Yeah, and Like that that tension that builds because it's like 150 100, you know, accounting down like until the drones run out of ammo. Yeah, and uh
[00:31:12] So like that was missing like at the beginning I didn't have any problem. I mean aliens is one of the best movies yeah for me action-wise made Really it may be better like I hate to say this because it to me
[00:31:27] It's a sacrilege to disrespect Ridley Scott in any way, but it might be better than the original movie. I agree. I Can believe me here. Yeah Yeah, I mean it was just it's just a really good film and It kind of lulls in certain parts and
[00:31:47] Newt gets on my nerves after a while But but that scene that scene with newt in the In the fucking water where that tail comes up. Oh, yeah That's incredible imagery right there. That is like so well done. Yeah and Also to The fighting in the beginning
[00:32:11] How they're locked and loaded yeah, and they got to get rid of the weapons Yeah, and then you hear the guy with the cigar that Yeah, yeah calling out the orders and all right ladies come on
[00:32:23] You know like that and it's like he keeps going like it's like a real sergeant. Yeah, like it's it's completely believable How he's talking to his crew? Yeah, do you understand what I mean? Oh, yeah like
[00:32:36] It's so believable. Yeah, and when they start going down and they all start Getting attacked and the mass chaos you can feel that tension you could feel that loss, you know, and I mean feel that you know
[00:32:49] Things are jacked up right now and they're not getting out of there and they're lost Yeah, you know and it's that whole that whole scene but that whole beginning is really to me What makes that movie because it not only does Not only from how it's directed
[00:33:11] From the sergeant barking out the orders, right, but you see aliens now as Man these guys are fucking fucking up. Yeah, it's like a horror movie It is do you know what I mean? But are really well unhormy, right? You know and it's
[00:33:28] And it's you see the power of This alien species. Yeah working together Do you know I have mind and everything yeah, you know like like an ant colony correct protecting the queen
[00:33:42] Yeah making it their own. Yeah, you know with all the Geigerish. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Oh, yeah It was just unbelievable and there was tons of moments where the stickiness and yeah
[00:33:56] There were certain things all throughout that I'm telling you to an opening scene which introduced you to now This is what aliens are right, you know This was a parasite on board of a ship Yeah
[00:34:07] And it got in somebody in the egg layer and the face hugger and all that stuff and you saw that in the first one But when you see this movie, this is like this is what they do, right?
[00:34:17] This is how they take over colonies. Yeah planets, you know, I mean like yeah, you can't let it escape Yeah, because everyone's gonna die. Yeah, because they're unstoppable, right? I mean they're not but they are right they multiply and the whole colonization of the people and
[00:34:35] Getting them face hugger on yeah, you know, I mean it just makes sense Yeah, the alien laying the egg. Yeah in order to Right get the face hugger in order to right and breed, you know, I mean it just makes complete sense
[00:34:50] The science behind it's like really good So any addition of the robot was good too, right now you're seeing a robot That's a lot different than right the robot that we knew before even at the beginning He's like oh, yeah that model they were glitchy
[00:35:06] We've come a long way since that and when Ripley's like fuck you and when and then Ripley realizes that he is a Robot after he does anything on the guy on Hicks. I think Hudson Hudson's arms. Yeah on his hand
[00:35:20] Yeah, you know and she realizes oh shit PTSD Yeah, you know what I mean all of it was really good The way they loaded stuff onto the ships the way they armed themselves the weaponry that they had the flamethrowers It was for the time period
[00:35:38] For the time that that was made it was well ahead of its time It was well ahead of its time More importantly Like it's one of those things like it's the first time you you really see what on Cameron James Cameron
[00:35:58] Like he always gets the military stuff, right? Right? Like you talked about like Alpone like the way like even like when he gets out of like the hibernation chamber like the first thing he does is put a cigar in his mouth
[00:36:09] Then he's up. He's like another beautiful day in the core. Yeah. Yes, you know like Shit like that like I mean, you know, we got Hudson's like man this floor is cold Which like to get your slippers like I love that sergeant look me in the eye
[00:36:23] like oh So good. Yeah, like it was shame he died so early. It was but at the same time like like So it was and you talk like the loading like every all that type of shit is like stuff that like Cameron
[00:36:37] Has always excelled at yeah, like you think about any James Cameron movie like even like And I'm gonna say this is what you want to show the avatar movies like the military stuff
[00:36:48] Yeah, from a futuristic standpoint like spot on. Yeah, especially an avatar. That was that was the cool thing about avatar Yeah, the military stuff is what fascinated me. Yeah But I'm gonna say this and this is that religion so many loves right
[00:37:02] But I thought that aliens too was better than any Terminator movie that ever came And I'm saying that And I know I'm gonna get shit for it, but I feel that aliens too was I Feel that it was Cameron at his best. I
[00:37:21] Can't disagree with that I do I Like the concept of the Terminator I get it right, you know what I mean? but That concept What pisses me off about the Terminator is that concept it was never fully realized
[00:37:41] There could have been so much more to the Terminator that you only got bits and pieces throughout the whole thing Yeah, that's all you got you would get flashes of what the war was like. You know what I mean or what the
[00:37:54] Becoming aware was you get flashes of bits and pieces and then you got overacting overacting by what's her name later on It was too much. Yeah by Sarah Connor. Yeah, it was it became insanity At least that's how I felt right but
[00:38:12] The design of aliens to the story that was told was Much better than the Terminator films Just much better. I like the concept of the Terminator made sense, but I mean realistically
[00:38:27] The first Terminator was all it was. I mean it was a good movie and it's up there, but it was a stalker movie It's a jaws movie. Yeah, no one I mean that's what it is. It's it's jaws. Yeah, you know
[00:38:39] But like when you think about it, I mean it was good. Yeah, but the thought and detail that went into aliens to Come on So good, I like the Terminator, but I was just never a huge fan of the Terminator You know what I mean?
[00:39:01] Yeah, I think I'm a bigger fan of the Terminator than you are Because I think T2 Well, it was a different angle, right? Yeah, but I really like Like T2 a lot
[00:39:22] The thing you have to look at like especially the Terminator movies is like how much involvement did he have because like I was like past T2 like in Terminator 3 he didn't direct that I don't like he wrote it and then
[00:39:38] In the Christian bail when I like he was involved with it at all and then the one with Khaleesi Yeah, like they had a really good beginning and a really shitty third act. Yeah
[00:40:01] Like I think he just kind of like gave his nod of approval to yeah, and I know he was a big part of Dark Genesis. Yeah, I think he wrote a good portion of that. Yeah, which is probably why it's like the best of like all the
[00:40:17] Sequels beyond T2. Yeah But I'm trying to look up me Director, okay, here we go Like you look at some of this shit. He's done like Terminator aliens The abyss and Terminator 2 yeah
[00:40:50] Like that's a hit row. I like the abyss so why I get to very underrated movie and again Like a movie that like he put so much research into like what it would be like living
[00:41:06] Yeah, it like you know you plus you throw in the military aspect of like there is a lot of oh and 94 true lies don't forget about that. Yeah, it was good like Even like you throw in like Titanic in 97 Which I mean I
[00:41:26] View that as two separate movies There's the first movie which is the love story between Jack and Rose That is the second movie where he hits the fucking iceberg. Yeah, I like the second movie
[00:41:36] Yeah, you know like why is it if the iceberg? I'm like oh shit. This is really well done I just loved how the water was filling in the boat. Yeah, I just he just did that perfectly
[00:41:47] And then like you know he that's when like after that. That's when he starts into his like Ghosts of the abyss and the alien like he starts doing like documentaries about like deep water. Yeah But like
[00:42:14] but then you after that doesn't get to avatar and then you know Avatar too like I said, but he does a lot of stuff is like a producer and a writer Like he produced point break He produced one of my favorite hidden gems strange days. Yeah
[00:42:35] You know so he does other stuff but I Wish you just get away from like the avatar stuff your bath like Like I don't know like doing like science fiction like real science. Yeah, yeah
[00:42:53] Like avatar stuff is just uh, I just don't get into it right I tried Well, I don't think avatars are really good movie It's not I mean like I mean the effect wise that's I think that's what he was pushing. Yeah
[00:43:16] Like even in the second movie, it's like it's not that it was like The special effects were amazing But like the story was like Yeah, you know It's almost like it was a concept that was made into a movie. Yeah and without much of a strong writing backing
[00:43:47] That makes any kind of sense. It's almost like a I don't know Avatar always came across to me as like almost like a sequel to someone's mind You know, I mean like yeah, like it just There was a lot of ideas thrown there
[00:44:05] But I don't think it was ever like truly put together Well, I mean it is in a way, but it's just a problem. It's not interesting to me Yeah Like the whole thing with like the connection between the navi
[00:44:20] Like even like in the um in the ocean like, you know, they can do the whole tail connecting thing You know with whatever Thing they're riding and then there's the the giant whales at the the sea navi have a relationship with and
[00:44:38] But it's just it's that thing of like It's interesting to a point But the characters aren't interesting like I don't have it Like I never end up getting an investment in The character right
[00:44:57] Yeah, I know I think that's part of the problem so I but like overall like I mean cameras as a director like I mean He pretty much hits nothing but home runs right You're great All right, so An article I found interesting this week. I was reading
[00:45:30] on a slash film Is um They they talk about How do you protect hbo? What do you mean? Well, hbo is a premium brand Like it all wants like if you think about it like Hbo has always been The standard like for all other like Like Pay channels
[00:46:09] Showtime and stars are trying to be Hbo, okay And like from the time we were kids Like hbo has always felt like a premium like it's like a It's more than just A tv channel right and even later on
[00:46:38] When it got out of just like being a movie channel Can you like think about like when we were kids like that Like that started up like when I'm when a movie was coming. I was like it was premiere night You got that whole like
[00:46:50] The camera going down through the city and like, you know like those openings that they had like to like To go to the hbo logo. Yeah, like yeah like that shit was Amazing like it gave it made it feel special right? um
[00:47:08] Later on when they went to like making their own series Like it became A high standard. Yeah for most of what they put out. Yeah Like if you really think about like over the years like how many like
[00:47:28] Massive culturally impactful shows that there have been that have been hbo originals correct So in the age of streaming, right How do you make hbo? Still important. Yeah And it is Because like like you have like house of the dragon. You just had um
[00:47:53] Um, I can't even name the show. Um Succession. Yeah succession was a massive water cooler show. Yeah, like that's how you measure like It's like that show that on monday You're standing at the water cooler at the office talking about right, right?
[00:48:11] You know, did you watch the session last night? Oh boy, did you know? It's shit like that and hbo has been the kings of that For 20 plus years turning turning show after show after show after show
[00:48:24] And I mean you go back to like awes and the sopranos and the wire under six feet under like But that was that was actually uh Six feet under was show time. I thought Are you sure?
[00:48:38] No, no six feet. You know, you're right six feet under. Yeah, that was uh, that was a The one I think was the one where the the girl dies it should becomes Death I can't remember
[00:48:50] Pushing him daisies. No, no not pushing daisies. That it was um dead to me dead like me dead like me Yeah, that was it. That was show time. That's what I was seeing um Yes, six feet under and like it like it's just been
[00:49:04] Over the past 20 plus years. They have just churned out these amazing shows right that have a high standard of as far as like storytelling and even like with like like game of thrones and Like, you know a high level of special effects like, you know, they they
[00:49:22] It's a They are an industry standard that that you'd want to live up to yeah when you put out something Yeah And so the question becomes like how do you protect that in the age of streaming? Yeah, like
[00:49:37] Like how's the dragon right now? I mean that's that's a big show that everybody's tuning into But like it's something you have to look at like in the future. Like how do we protect this brand? Right, how do we make it relevant? and One of the things that
[00:49:52] Warner Brothers Discovery is doing Is deciding that some of their high-end properties, right? Should be HBO originals and not max originals, right? so like um They talked about like the They've got three shows upcoming. They were originally scheduled to be
[00:50:17] You know streaming only right uh their green lantern TV show It Um the it prequel welcomed the dairy and they're doing a harry potter show, right? All three of those now are going to be HBO originals. Okay Because of the high level of production they're putting into it
[00:50:36] But also it is a way to protect that HBO brand, right? Right like And I guess like the question becomes Like we talk about like, you know cable television being in the
[00:50:52] The thralls of of death, right, you know, it's it's so close you can you can see like Like when ratings come in for shows like You compared to what it was 10 years ago even or 20 years ago it like
[00:51:10] They know that shows just don't draw as much as they used to anymore And even like on network television. Yeah, and But streaming, you know more and more people are cutting the cable and stuff like that So like I guess I guess the
[00:51:27] Like is it enough to protect that brand? And if you're like is it worth it to protect that brand if you're one of brother's discovery, right? What do you think? Yeah, it's worth it. You think so to protect it. Yeah. Yeah I think it is don't you
[00:51:44] I don't know Because here's the thing like okay, like you'll be one thing if you told me In order to watch house of drag is you have to subscribe to HBO I see But the next day I can watch it on max Yeah
[00:52:03] So how is it really protected? Yeah, I guess you're right. I mean I see that Like yeah, I mean that's honestly, I guess that's what how I feel like it's that thing of like I understand you want to protect that brand that HBO brand is important. Yeah
[00:52:21] but making it Like an HBO original Is one thing but making an HBO exclusive exclusive. I see what you mean then then no I think that should come with your subs. You know what I mean, right?
[00:52:36] No, I understand that like that you're right at the exclusive right already paying for the service Right, but So what's the point in protecting the HBO brand that yeah, no I get that Like you could maybe make it like on the streaming service important Uh-huh like
[00:52:59] Have it carry that cachet of like well, this is an HBO production. Yeah Or this is an HBO original And maybe that carries some cachet going forward into streaming. Yeah But I feel like or maybe you can do like a Before the show starts
[00:53:20] Yeah, and some of them do You know what I mean like have that well, this is HBO Yeah, you know what I mean, let's fly to the city. Yeah
[00:53:30] Like no, I mean and it's that but it's that that odd thing if like if you're trying to protect the cable channel Like I don't know if you can do that right But like It's kind of like
[00:53:50] In boston boston has this group of reporters and they will work An extensive amount of time on a subject as a team, right? And then it's like it's called a spotlight Um article, okay Well if it's a spotlight article that means it's it's
[00:54:12] Something much different. It's it's been more in-depth research like the whole thing with like the the catholic priests and you know Molestation That came out through a spotlight article. Yeah, that's where that originated from Like it was spotlight that did that
[00:54:34] And that's what that movie was about. It was about those reporters in that That were working that article the entire time, right? It's a very good movie. I'll never watch it again
[00:54:46] Yeah, you know, um, but it was a very well done movie and but but like in boston like that's something That's important. Like if it's if it has that spotlight Name attached to it. You know, it's something important that must be read
[00:55:02] Right, you know, I mean and so I think that's what they like they're trying to do to us But I don't even protect the channel, but you can protect that brand somehow, right? I know that's kind of hard to like differentiate because
[00:55:17] It's a you know, it's it's all streaming but there there is something to a brand That we do attach importance to yeah, I think yeah Yeah, that's I get that I I understand what you're saying. I yeah, maybe I just misunderstood when you but it's also
[00:55:37] It's still hard to me because it's like that that thing of like Like how long can they last? Right, like, you know, I honestly like I look at like The big threes HBO show time and stars, right? And I wonder like As a brand like
[00:56:03] HBO has the advantage of having max And show time has the advantage of paramount plus, right? Starz has nothing They do not have a streaming service at all, right? Um You know The sony for whatever reason has not gotten into that game. I don't know why right
[00:56:27] So I feel like like you you can protect a like You can make the brand stole mean something through your streaming service and For HBO and for show time but I guess the other thing like okay, so if I'm Warner Brothers like you you're paying
[00:56:46] And I've seen other streaming surfaces kind of do this with with events But like okay, so you subscribe to max And with max you get everything but Maybe for an additional three dollars you get HBO, right? Like now it's important. Yeah, because it's still available on streaming
[00:57:07] It's still available on streaming the next day But in order for me to watch something that was on HBO like that I have to pay a premium to still get it. Okay, same thing with paramount plus like
[00:57:17] Okay, yeah, you you can watch anything. It's on paramount plus, but if it was on showtime It's the showtime original You're paying extra three bucks for right like that would be something I could see them doing to protect those brands
[00:57:30] And still make it feel premium. Yeah, you know, I mean, yeah Like I think that's the harder thing to do and like the age of streaming is how is hps still a premium brand when I'm watching it on max Right on monday. Yeah, I can
[00:57:43] Sony has the problem if they don't they don't have that advantage at all Like like they need to get in the game Right I'm shocked that they haven't like they Like they make a deal with Netflix to like, you know, well when that flicks can carry our movies
[00:57:58] So long after or our shows so long after they've run on stars. Yeah But at the same time there's like that Well, okay, I mean it's so you're on Netflix. You're not like
[00:58:16] Sony has to come up with something at some point, but I also think they're kind of smart in a way that's like Like it's a double-edged sword with Sony because it's like part of me is like you know The game you have to develop your own streaming service
[00:58:32] To be viable going forward But also I think like they're looking at the streaming services going Why would we do that right now? Right? Like nobody's making real money, right? Only Netflix Netflix is the only one making money like everybody else is losing money with their streaming services
[00:58:51] So why would we go into that game and lose money? Right So maybe they're smart And they're thinking that way then. Yeah So The one other thing I wanted to touch on okay, um I don't know if you've seen this or not but
[00:59:27] A while ago, they released the new what's a new Superman suit looks like. Okay And now we've gotten some leaked pictures from the set of of the suit in real life. Okay, so Here here's a I guess it's a better rule look at look at the suit
[00:59:48] What do you think of that? Um, I like it. I don't know if I like the s or not. Yeah Yeah, I don't know. I don't think I like it I don't know. I don't think I like it. No Yeah, I think you will
[01:00:08] Yeah, I think you will because you like those bright colors. I do but I liked I like the maroon like The darker blue I did And but it fit it fit with snyder, you know, yeah Well, even like um if you go if you go back to uh
[01:00:32] That looks like an updated Christopher Reeves suit Right, but I like the chris and then changed the asshole. Yeah And yes, looks more kryptonian. Yeah But One I like it they brought back the trunks Because it breaks it up Yeah It's not all one big blue suit
[01:00:59] Yeah, you know, I mean like the red trunks do break it up. I think it needs that I get them. What's the purpose? I don't even make something up Like I just think it looks better. I know and I look at it. Look it looks like span jams
[01:01:18] Yeah on top of Biker pants. Yeah, you know, I just I don't know I Like I I loved the Henry Cavill suit Yeah, I mean let me start there like I I did love it. I thought it looked really good. I liked
[01:01:44] I just I like to look at it um What you don't see in this picture Um, but in other words they're on the cape. He does also have the s on the cape. That's cool, which Cavill didn't have yeah um I don't I don't think
[01:02:04] The brandon roth suit had it either. Okay And the brandon roth suit also was like the beginning of like darkening the suit like it was It was not as bright as the Christopher Reeve suit. Right. Um
[01:02:20] I know I think in Superman one and two he did have the s on the back of the cape. Mm-hmm. I think at three and four They took it off. Mm-hmm Um, I like I but I do like The suit is brighter like I just I do
[01:02:41] Like I don't think everything has to be in darker tones And Superman shouldn't be in darker tones in my opinion like I dig the cavill look I think it worked for what zack schleider was doing especially with the color palette they used in his movies
[01:02:59] But like superman has a beacon of hope Should be brighter. Yeah, you know, I mean Like I do like if they brought the trunks back because I do feel it it breaks up the suit As far as like instead of it all being like one big blue
[01:03:18] Jump suit there is a breakup to it that makes it look good But it looks dated I don't think so Well, you're also biased Yeah, I get I mean I I guess so but like I don't think it looks
[01:03:36] I mean, I can understand why you would like that suit. Yeah completely. Yeah, I get it But I also think it looks very dated Okay to me. I mean it just looks like a date. Oh, I mean that's your opinion. I appreciate it. Yeah
[01:03:51] I I just I don't yeah, I'm just not into Yeah, I mean like the s The s under the crest I'm still kind of like I kind of like the s the kryptonian. Yeah, I'm struggling with it just a little bit
[01:04:07] Like I don't know like I it's like I dig it but I don't because again Traditionalism, you know, I want it to be an actual west but it does have that kryptonian look to it that I'm kind of like Okay, that
[01:04:21] Would make more sense. Yeah in a way But you know People are complaining about the suit that it's not form fitting Like it shouldn't be like tighter on them And I have a feeling that that might get cleaned up with like some CGI work Like I I know
[01:04:51] one of the things like they talked about like with like, um, amazing spider-man Right was You know, he's wearing the suit But then they would tighten it up With CGI. Yeah, like, um
[01:05:09] Stuff like that so like that that might be something that they do some post work on to kind of Tighten it up and make it a little bit more form fitting or maybe they won't like, you know
[01:05:20] It does look a lot like this would be my big complaint like looking at like especially the top It almost looks like a Guardians of the Galaxy jacket What like the top part if you really look at it Yeah, it does, you know and
[01:05:38] You know, you you come to that conclusion only because it's James Gunn. Yeah, like and it's like Maybe he's working I'm sure he's probably working with like the same costume designers he worked with on Guardians
[01:05:51] And I'm sure that they probably collaborate together and have to come up with but it does it it does feel Like if I was to make a complaint That would be my complain is like it it doesn't look like a Superman suit. It looks like something that
[01:06:06] Peter Quill would have wore. Yeah I hear you. Yeah, but outside of that like I I dig it. Okay um But I but I like that I know they released like the the initial photo People were complaining about it then and you know, you're seeing it like
[01:06:29] On set and people are still complaining about it I'm going to hold my final opinion until I see it on screen Like the finalized version on screen to see how it really looks. Yeah, but based upon the color palette
[01:06:42] Yeah, like I like it. Okay. Like I like that the lighter blue. I like the bright red. I like The the yellow like it feels Traditional, okay, and that's what I'm I'm looking for is like
[01:07:02] I've always said like one of the hardest jobs will has to be being a costume designer for a superhero movie Because you want to put your stamp on it as a costume designer, right? But at the same time you have to almost you have to be very beholden
[01:07:17] To the comic book, right? That's a hard line to tread and sometimes they've gone too far Sometimes they've not gone far enough You know, like I think of this stuff like like Like in the original X-Men movies a Brian Singer X-Men movies like
[01:07:37] Like you hated the black leather Like you know because that's not the X-Men X-Men are like, you know blue and yellow Yeah, you know and But like, you know, they make the joke in there like what we expect you have to be wearing blue and yellow spandex
[01:07:53] Yeah, you know Like other iterations like the Batman movies like you get in the like Batman forever and then the movie that should not be named like they get so far off track with what the bats Are supposed to look like, right? You know what I mean like
[01:08:13] and and even in like the Nolan verse like Nolan's trying to attack it from a practical standpoint of like What would this be made of what would he be looking for he'd be wearing an armor of some type Right, you know and so it makes sense
[01:08:40] Practically what the the suit looks like even like the cow like when he goes to like The motorcycle helmet type type deal so he can move his head. Yeah, like practically that makes sense
[01:08:51] I understand that but man couldn't we have like created something like would allow him to move his head Like still look like the traditional cow. Yeah, you know, I mean like Stuff like that annoys me as a fan and like
[01:09:08] Even like the captain America suit in the Avengers Looks awful. Yeah, like It's funny because they hit like a such a home running first Avenger and I know like they're trying to do like Something traditional, but it looks so fucking bad. Yeah
[01:09:34] That like later on it went back to like the the first Avengers suit in a lot of ways Yeah, like which is funny because like that's one of those rare times like the traditional look just doesn't work Right at all. I agree um
[01:09:49] You know, I try to think like other marvel movies that like I guess like they do a pretty good job of like Finding that balance for the most part Yeah, they do in the marvel movies. I thought they did. Yeah, like
[01:10:08] When I have like through a scene hot guy with the uh, yeah His his cow sure Yeah, that would have been awesome, but I get why you don't do it You know, yeah, but when he showed up as Ronan. Yeah, that was spot Yes
[01:10:26] Like that was straight off the page. Yeah Him and their Ronan costumes Yeah, we don't want the sword everything about it was Wicked yeah, you know I mean they hit they I think Marvel hit more home runs than they didn't
[01:10:44] Yeah, you know what I mean like I thought that Most everything looked good. I thought a hand man looked great Yeah, ant man like the costume everything lost. I thought those costumes were really good. Yeah, I agree and I also thought um Like the spider-man suit Yeah
[01:11:08] like I thought that was Really well done and the iron spider later on. Yeah, the iron spider looked actually really good Yeah, I didn't like it in the books as much as I liked it on screen. Yeah, he's on screen and they was wicked. Yeah like
[01:11:25] Movement of it made more sense. Yeah You know the way would ball up when he rolled. Yeah, and it yeah like to protect him Right that made a lot of sense and I wasn't a fan of the iron spider. Yeah But I liked it on screen. Yeah
[01:11:41] I agree. Yeah Like the way the eyes moves. Yeah um like that was like The first time you saw those eyes move I was like, oh shit Yeah, like we're finally getting that. Yeah, you know, and I understand why in other iterations they couldn't do it Yeah
[01:12:03] But still at the same time there was like that. That was it was an oh shit moment like it is a eyes move Like oh wow So, um Yeah, the costume designs have been pretty well done. Yeah spider-man's especially talk awkward good Um
[01:12:25] From that aspect. Yeah, uh, I even like Well In the newest spider-man. I like goblin Yeah, like you got rid of that goofy ass helmet. Yeah and say a man made sense. Yeah, like they're all made sense. Yeah kind of like
[01:12:43] Brought it back down. Yeah, I mean to what it should look like. Yeah um I mean talking from spider-man, I mean some of the x-men stuff has been good too I'll have to admit some of the costumes have been okay Yeah, I think in the later ones, uh
[01:13:03] I mean, it's hard to fuck up magnus costume Yeah, when he's in full costume, right It's just it's right there on the page. Yeah, all you gotta do is follow the cookbook. Yeah, I agree. It's there
[01:13:14] Yeah, I mean e and mckellum's magneto looked like magneto. Yeah, you know, um Yeah, I mean I I thought they did Pretty good with their stuff That's what that's different than marvel. I mean now it's not going to be but it was that right
[01:13:34] I thought venom work good It was tough because you don't get to put the spider-man logo on him. I know and Yeah, so it's that odd thing of like I feel like he's missing a massive component of yeah, I want I wanted to yeah
[01:13:58] Yeah, the big spider. Yeah, I want that. Yeah It's an important part of the character it is But but venom was also changed. Yeah No, I Yeah, as before he was the menace But it the only problem I have it doesn't look
[01:14:21] Again, like it's like it's just like one long with the exception of the eye. Like one long big black figure Yeah, you know, it's It's missing something breaking up. But if you had that white spider on yeah That would complete it. Yeah
[01:14:37] And but that but that's the problem is he's yeah, it's just a big black You know figure which There's nothing breaking that up power up Yeah um
[01:14:53] And carnage were good what they did with carnage was good. I mean it was all CGI but carnage did look good. Yeah um But I thought you know as far as the Marvel movies go. I thought vision looked good I thought everybody looks very well done
[01:15:11] I did yeah And that's in the series with witch Yeah, when she came out with uh, you know what I mean? Yeah, oh I even I even think they ruined the character but I even think cyclok looked good and uh and uh Not dark side but oh
[01:15:42] Apocalypse. Yeah. Yeah I thought Cyclok actually looked good. Yeah in there. So I mean like And when it gets the costumes, I think I think they're doing pretty well
[01:15:55] I can't think of an avenger in the avengers movie. I can't think of a costume that I didn't really like I think the guardians look good I mean you go all you go all the way back to iron man Like the first time you see him Like in
[01:16:15] In that mark three With the the hot rod red Yeah, and gold like you were like That looks like they took that right off the fucking page. Yeah Like he looked phenomenal. He did, you know
[01:16:32] He did and like his memory serves that iron man was more was more boxy Yeah, you know what I mean? And then I think I have to look after I have to look at the evolution But I think it slimmed down It did
[01:16:46] But it did like to the point where like like you had like It looked like it was like It didn't look like a suit like an iron suit. It looked like it was like a spandex suit Yeah, you know, but they also evolved that in the movie
[01:17:01] In a way like explaining like okay well you went from this boxy Right You know hard to put on suit to Now the micro technology. Yeah the Tony's using but even Even war machine looked more boxy than Tony's. Yeah, like they kept war machines look somewhat
[01:17:22] Did you notice that war machine looked bigger? Yeah, I mean supposed to be but I mean like It was more that boxy look yeah, especially when the fight against whiplash. Well, they never say whiplash. Yeah It was whiplash. Yeah But uh
[01:17:42] Because I like the look of war machine too. Yeah I like how they I liked how he was Like they didn't fancy him up. They kept them as war machine. Yeah, because you remember an iron man 3 had all the mech Yeah, he had like 100 200 suits. Yeah
[01:18:03] And a hawkbuster even looked good too When they busted hawkbuster. Yeah. Yeah and adventures too. Yeah. Yeah, it looked good It made sense On why it was the way it was right um, but you know Who knows
[01:18:20] All the iron man suits I liked. Yeah, I just it absolutely destroyed me when he just started killing off all the suits I'm like I'm seeing all these suits fly up. Yeah from you know the books and I'm like, oh Yeah
[01:18:36] You know and all of a sudden yeah, we're just gonna destroy them all like Really? Well, I I except for hawkbuster. Yeah. Well, no that became like that odd thing of like At that moment I think down his contract was up. Yeah
[01:18:56] And so they like they were trying to kind of give tonic tony a happy ending of Well, I'll destroy all the suits for you pepper. Yeah, so that you know And then he goes and has the
[01:19:11] I even at the end of that movie he goes and has a surgery to have everything taken out so he doesn't need Yeah The the magnet is hard anymore And then then he goes and You know does something completely different. Yeah, you know
[01:19:29] And pepper calls them on like if you remember like in an infinity war Like at the beginning like she's calling them out like I thought you know, you were done But yet here you are with
[01:19:42] You know, what's this? Well, this is just a safety precaution, you know, yeah Like it was interesting like here like tony like try to like He can as much as you try to walk away from being iron man. He could never walk away from being iron man. Correct
[01:19:57] I know Yeah, he can yeah because he always wanted to protect the world. Yeah And he knew that his mind could yeah He's just ambition got on the way. Yeah, but his mind can always protect the world. Yeah That's the cool thing about
[01:20:16] No one else could have played him. No No, like At all like you could never reboot that No, you can't because no one fits the bill. No I want I honestly can't think of another actor right now that could Step into Iron Man shoes. No
